have a fun show today. I got

7
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:41.520
ninety two point nine Crystal Gorman's yeah, running the board and with some opinions.

8
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.200
I'm sure today, Oh, Monday
is a good day to have a

9
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:48.280
peak. Yeah, Monday's like did
your Minnesota team with I guess that's a

10
00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:51.159
no, Oh my gosh. Okay, we'll get to that. But then

11
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:55.240
we're gonna have George Modesty by the
way, Yes, George Modest is in

12
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:59.359
the house, showtime cards. He's
been out and about. And then we're

13
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:06.120
gonna have Jason Terry the Jet hopefully
calling about fifteen minutes from wherever he's at.

14
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.799
He's a good friend of George's in
mine and have him for about ten

15
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:14.840
fifteen minutes, and then in the
second hour, we're gonna have another show

16
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:19.920
to another card guy, and it's
not coming up on my George's rival George's

17
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:25.640
arrival in Denver. I guess I
was more curious about his thoughts about what

18
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:27.799
text going on in Colorado because he's
in Denver. But you know all that

19
00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:32.159
who plod the whole state. I'm
sure it's going bonkers. Well they're here,

20
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:34.760
said we're coming. Well they're here. Now they're here. Well they're

21
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:40.760
here. They they're here. We'll
see what. Welcome Sanders. So he

22
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:45.560
gonna get any easier, though it's
not not that it matters. He's in

23
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.040
the Heisman race though, Oh yeah, welcome to the race. Question.

24
00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:52.120
He's good, hear. I like
what. I like the swagger. I

25
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:53.519
know Jay's not a big fan of
it. I've heard Jay talk about who

26
00:01:53.599 --> 00:02:01.000
swagger they needed Colorado. I like
the cockiness, and Dan's very likable.

27
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:04.719
I don't Jay's like the grumpy guy, get off my lawn. Like,

28
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.120
let Dan have fun, let him
talk smack and they back it up.

29
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:08.599
He's great. No, no,
as long as he back, as long

30
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:10.840
as he backs. Yeah. So
far, yeah, so far, so

31
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:14.520
good for him, which is fine. The USC and Oregon. You talk

32
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.159
about cap and you can pull it
off. Go more bravo. Oh,

33
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:20.680
he's gonna win this week, and
then very Mile High its field that game

34
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:24.520
State against High, and then he's
got USC and Oregon. We're gonna see

35
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:28.520
real tough however, right right,
I know, I don't know. I

36
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.280
did like the the over three and
a half when they started the season.

37
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:35.680
I did, given given his situation
with better players. Uh, he's a

38
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:38.840
proven winner, you know. You
know, I hate talking about it knowing

39
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:40.479
what you think, you know,
but I think it was obvious that they

40
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:43.800
were gonna be better. How much
better? I don't know. One and

41
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.199
eleven last year, so so I
thought more than three wins, and here

42
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:49.400
they are. The line now was
six and the six and a half.

43
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.240
That they'll win more than six and
a half, that's kind of stretch you

44
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:53.560
gotta But we'll see. We got
a date with him on the road.

45
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:58.000
It's gonna be it's gonna be tough. And then Arizona here we are.

46
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:00.520
Let me ask you, because I
know you to talk some crap about what

47
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:05.560
you saw. Well, here's the
thing. It's like Mississippi State comes in

48
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:12.120
here last year, right and they
and they they beat us. Text can

49
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:15.159
you text much will they come in
here? They beat us, They pretty

50
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:17.400
much handled us pretty easily. You
just feel like, with all the and

51
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:21.400
this is just me, with all
the buzz around the team this year and

52
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:23.800
the excitement and the hoop law,
it's a game that we're supposed to win.

53
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:30.039
Which one you're asking me about Arizona
Mississippi State. A game they're supposed

54
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:30.800
to win. What's the game?
It's a game that you think that we

55
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:32.800
well, first of all, first
of all, I should have won the

56
00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:35.680
game. First of all, I
should have won the game. Hands don't

57
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:39.520
step out of bus. Second of
all, yeah, they I watched a

58
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:42.400
little bit of I saw the highlights. I know enough that you don't step

59
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:46.120
out of bounds. The highlights that
doesn't touch I don't need. Here's the

60
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:47.599
thing when it comes to Arizona football, I don't need. I don't need

61
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:52.319
to know much because we're not a
football town. We don't win games like

62
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:57.120
that. You're the we don't like
that. Let me you are getting a

63
00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:00.719
long time, A long time.
I'm almost a two s no And I

64
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:03.479
tweeted, and I hate Twitter,
hold on, let me finish their mister,

65
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:09.159
mister guy. So I went on
Twitter and I hate Twitter because everyone

66
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.120
has an opinion and who gives a
crap about your opinion, including mine?

67
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:15.639
So I said, uh people,
people going berserk. In the first quarter,

68
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:17.519
the Laura was doing this and doing
that and not doing this and doing

69
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:20.600
that. Okay, he was He
looked bad, but the teams didn't didn't

70
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:25.319
look good. So so they got
a fourteen to seven and by the halftime,

71
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:28.360
right by halftime, they were still
in the game. He came and

72
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.360
pulled pulled out a pretty good second
half. All the fans in the first

73
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:35.120
half, Oh, get rid of
them, gonna change the blah blah blah

74
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:39.519
blah blah. Enough Jesus. If
you're gonna be a fan, be a

75
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.720
fan. Don't everybody. It's it's
kind of bitch fest on Twitter. You

76
00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:46.879
know, I think you're wrongs not
he's not. First of all, he's

77
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:48.279
not good. He's not good.
We're not winning with him, first,

78
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:51.600
are you? Or? Four?
Four turnovers? That was a lot of

79
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:59.680
them party three of them were not
on him. Drink take your stand.

80
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.000
I'm a quarterback where I need Jay
at least he's drinks. I've been here

81
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:08.319
my whole life. I want to
drink. We're totally wrong. We're talking

82
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.360
why he's not a good quarterback.
We don't win those games. You say,

83
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:15.560
we're not supposed to win those games. That's the problem with dogs.

84
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:16.759
It doesn't matter. We want to
if we want to get over the help

85
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:19.399
we have to win those certain games. There's a buzz around this team this

86
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:24.959
year. That's why we're a basketball
five six games. We will never be

87
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:29.480
a football tap because we just don't
give snapshots. No football program. I'm

88
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:32.199
gonna ask Jason the Jet when he
comes on, but there's no hoopla.

89
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:38.000
That's a game that you're supposed to
get. Yes, no, yes.

90
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:42.399
The people thought they were gonna lose
that game from that's the problem from the

91
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:44.879
tip of course, because no one
has faith in the UFA Football rep.

92
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:47.399
I agree they're gonna lose there within, they always lose. They don't get

93
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:50.839
over the hues on this. We're
not playing both sides. I'm just saying

94
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:55.079
we are a basketball town for a
reason. Okay, because the football team

95
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:59.160
here is nothing. It's never been
anything. Our highlights is one highlight over

96
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:01.879
thirty years. It's Chuck Season running
a ninety nine yard touchdown pass against a

97
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:05.480
issue. Give me a snapshot from
the Yu they football program. George,

98
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:10.759
did you give him a red bull? Started? Georgia? Because George knows

99
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:13.959
I'm right, it's wont to highlight
every year. It's it's it's cecil.

100
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.560
There's no history here. There's nothing
you forget about the leap o, the

101
00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:20.519
holiday ball against the Brasco. What
do you do? We are a basketball

102
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:25.199
town, fellas. I should have
joke tested this place before before. George.

103
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:32.120
Chris is right about you. Yeah
every days. No no, no,

104
00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:34.800
you came into the wrong time.
You came into that's for sure.

105
00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:39.439
He's saying that Arizona should have won
this Saturday game. George from the beginning,

106
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:41.839
George, they should have won the
game. I don't want to get

107
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.480
an argument, but we would love
it, George, George, to get

108
00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:47.040
over the hump. With all the
hoopla around you have a and the third

109
00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:50.120
year of jet Fish. This is
a game where they come into our home.

110
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:54.480
They beat us last year. This
is a game that we should win.

111
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:58.920
To get over the hump. You
they never wins winn even dogs are

112
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:02.199
qualifying and they were. They're not
supposed to win this game. They should

113
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:06.920
get over the hump. Never gets
over the hump. They that's they that's

114
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:12.160
you have you been in how long? And instill alive? That's the break.

115
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:14.519
I'm a Viking ban too. It's
the same way. Especially put him

116
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:16.360
under the ground. That's the tombstone. Oh they needed that game to get

117
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:19.759
him over the hump. Yeah,
Unfortunately I can't break the time because I

118
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:26.079
see you, Steve, we that
game we shouldn't have won. We're doing

119
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:30.720
and you should we should not win. But to get over that, I

120
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:33.399
don't disagree with that. I don't
just want to the program. We need

121
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:35.879
to win those shops. You need
to step out of bounds too. By

122
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:40.360
the way, it should have won
the game. It should have won the

123
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:42.639
game. A game shouldn't even gone
over time. It's the problem is you

124
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:46.399
have doesn't win those types of games. Therefore we will never get over the

125
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:48.319
hump. They don't give us snapshot
the football program. You could get throw

126
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:51.360
shous. You could be arguing both
sides against yourself right now. I think

127
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:55.560
you are. I think that you're
drinking the koli. I'm seeing that?

128
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.399
Is that arizonaol? What is that
Georgia? Is that wild? Is that

129
00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:00.519
in that Q Cup? That's all? That's why? Okay, cool,

130
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.000
I want more. I want nothing
more than the UFA football program to succeed.

131
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:07.680
But we will forever be a basketball
town. We've got no snapshots.

132
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:11.439
Historically, there's nothing to go on. There's no rose ballt We're never going

133
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.639
to a rose ball. You're not
writing a book about a football coach.

134
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:18.160
Ever, there's nothing here when it
comes to the football world. You take

135
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:22.439
this conversation to somewhere else? Am
I, George? Am I missing something?

136
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:26.040
Are we are great foot historically?
Great football? Nope? I don't

137
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:28.519
understand where you took it there.
We're talking about the game. I know

138
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.559
we should have won the game.
Okay, give me a chance of George,

139
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:35.159
can hear going in on a Friday? They were nine point dogs.

140
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:39.320
They're not supposed to win the game, are right? Agree? If they

141
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:41.639
do, they need the game to
go over the hump of the game.

142
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.279
Yes, was it gonna happen?
No, if you watch the first if

143
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:48.879
you watch the feed back, if
you watch the first quarter, did you

144
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.399
watch your first question? They looked, they looked. I got tweets.

145
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.240
Oh this guys look horrible. They
can't stop anything, blah blah blah.

146
00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:58.759
Three interceptions. I get it.
I get it because they looked bad.

147
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:03.360
But they played well in the second
half. I learned more about this game

148
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:05.600
from this game than the first game. I did too. I learned that

149
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:11.039
they can't win close games. That's
what I learned. It's typically you are

150
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:16.080
they're texting either, like George,
Arizona is just killing my parlays. I'm

151
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.840
done with them. I'm never going
to trust them. Exact the first quarter,

152
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.559
right, yeah, first first half
exactly, yep. So and I'm

153
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:24.720
like, yeah, that's I guess
that is Arizona football. But we shouldn't

154
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:28.440
we. I don't think we had
a chance to win this game, but

155
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:31.200
we should have won the game.
We should have won the game though,

156
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:33.919
because we're in the game, in
the game, in the actual game,

157
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:35.320
we should have won the game.
And the problem is v does not win

158
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:37.279
those games, even when the nine
point on rubs. I don't care about

159
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.840
Vegas and the numbers they're supposed.
They should have won the game. They

160
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:45.039
should have won the game though,
in no, wh who found you?

161
00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:48.399
Who are you? I am?
You must have a Viking fan, so

162
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:50.080
like, oh, you don't know
what it's like. You don't know check

163
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:52.600
that ticker of years. Every now
and a game we make Baker Mayfield look

164
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:56.480
good. We make Daniel Jones look
good. We are the Vikings. Actually,

165
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:01.399
Baker did look, Baker did look
at the second. It's just the

166
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:03.759
next two hours with you and then
George George agree with you. Well,

167
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.600
we're not. She's sipping on the
kool aid. There's no clue. I'm

168
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:11.360
a realist when it comes to you, a football been, I'm a realist.

169
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:15.200
I just know that we're never gonna
win. That's a real, honest

170
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.200
opinion. We don't have any we
don't have quarterbacks. We've never had a

171
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:20.159
quarterback. Well, I mean,
it's just Nick Foles was good again,

172
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.360
he wasn't great here though. Okay, we have good recruits if you want

173
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.639
to talk about one year players like
a Gronkowski. But historically the program is

174
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:31.639
a letter. It's just a letdown. I mean, I watch every game

175
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:33.200
and they make I go argue with
you. Dear Chris, We're not arguing

176
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:37.759
and get over the hump. Okay, I'll get over there. Get you.

177
00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:39.639
Were never gonna win this game.
It should have won it, though

178
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:43.080
it doesn't matter in the game.
In the actual game situation, it should

179
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.440
have won the game, and they
don't because they don't win close games like

180
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.720
because there you give him the money. Now you're friends with him. We

181
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:54.200
got the car exchange. Were buddies. I someone don't. I am all

182
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:56.399
bar down. I'm asking you a
question. Let me ask you this question.

183
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.639
Did you see the highlights of the
games? I should we have won

184
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:03.360
the game? Highlights? You won? Highlights? Perhaps we should have won

185
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:09.480
the game? Perhaps perhaps points at
what point? At one point? Look

186
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.399
at you. They doesn't win these
games. They just don't. You're ready

187
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.279
on five and seven? She until
you go and say, we should have

188
00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:18.559
won this game. Should have a
game in the game. It should the

189
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:20.480
actual game. We should have I
don't care what the line says in the

190
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.759
game. The problem with you have
a football is they just don't win.

191
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:26.360
Those clutch types those of course like
the Vikings, they are, Well,

192
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:31.240
that's true, they are. That's
why Minnesota is what is. That's what

193
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:35.320
Arizona is what it is. I
believe in Jinks basketball. That's no brainer.

194
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:37.440
Arizona is a basketball town. I
mean you're bringing in subjects said,

195
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:41.759
yes, yes, I believe in
I believe in Jinks programs. There are

196
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.039
certain teams that will never this is
one. It's been kind of into that

197
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:48.720
for a long time. For long. A lot of programs out there.

198
00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:50.480
Okay, so George's in. Thank
god George is in the maybe, thank

199
00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:52.960
you, thank you, George,
thank god. I would have to battle

200
00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:56.519
this guy and I'd have to own
it for two hours. Well, thank

201
00:11:56.559 --> 00:12:00.000
you so much for having me.
And what a weekend it was for sports.

202
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:03.480
I don't mind football. It was
tremendous. NFL even, it was

203
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.240
tremendous. You guys watched the game
last night? Well it was no,

204
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:09.720
No, he was not watching.
It was not watching. So what do

205
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:13.200
you think about Let's just talk about
this real quick. I know, Steve,

206
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.799
I'm sure you have an agenda,
but I do have an agenda.

207
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:20.840
We're gonna call Jason Jameson and call
us. Yeah, he's seventeen, guys

208
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:24.080
said yep, And he said he's
in. He's gonna call. Okay,

209
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:28.799
so great that you got that for
us today. Uh, we're gonna get

210
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:31.360
to Jason Terry. I need to
get to read the Draft Kings read.

211
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:33.519
So we got about two minutes.
Oh boy, you're putting me to work

212
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:35.799
today. Yes, yes, you
got a Draft Kings read. Huh,

213
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:39.120
it's it's I should do it after
the show. How about the Cardinals did

214
00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:41.919
they cover the line. I won't
worry about it now. I'm gonna do

215
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:43.399
it. I'm gonna do it after
Jason. Okay, how about the Cardinals

216
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.480
yesterday? No one really gave them
a chance. Washington, Washington had to

217
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.799
go. They were down ten in
the fourth quarter in the Cardon yep,

218
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.519
mhmm, yeah, yeah, Washington
was Downtown ten. Well, Washington was

219
00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:56.799
down ten, not the Cardinals.
Cardinal's rough ten would Josh Dobbs at the

220
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:00.639
Helm? I mean, I was
like, outside of outside of Ammy,

221
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:09.519
outside of Dallas, the Green Bay, who else? Kind of besides that,

222
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:11.120
it was kind of like, Okay, well the Rams played outstanding,

223
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:16.320
boy, they sure did. Yeah, the Raiders. The Raiders won that

224
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:18.799
game. I have sat. Also, I have a question for you guys.

225
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:20.720
I don't know if I want to
save this, keep this in my

226
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:26.080
back pocket for another segment, but
I am curious, can anybody, in

227
00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:30.600
your opinion play themselves out of the
Hall of Fame? Who you're talking about?

228
00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:33.159
I think Russell Wilson, Russell slowly
playing himself out of the Hall of

229
00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:39.399
Fame? Can a player literally play
I think Russell Wilson is slowly becoming ineligible,

230
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:43.080
And you're the Pickett got one Super
Bowl. What's that? I don't

231
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.440
even think it's gonna work over there. It's done. They're not gonna mask.

232
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.080
It's the same team. He's playing
himself out of canny player. Can

233
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:52.759
you play? Can a player do
that? Pla himself out the hall.

234
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:56.399
I really believe Russell Wilson has playing
himself, but probably can't happen. His

235
00:13:56.519 --> 00:14:00.080
last five years are brutal. His
cards must have been dwindling. We're wan

236
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:01.080
to talk about that. We're talking
about with your guy. What's his name?

237
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:05.399
Huh, Mike Fruitman. Mike Pruitman's
big in our industry, thirty years

238
00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:07.799
plots. He actually just hold his
business out of Denver. Yeah, Denver.

239
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:11.919
But we'll talk to his get We'll
get a gauge of Denver and Colorado

240
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:16.159
because you know the Buffalo's story.
I want a Jordan love Price too on

332
00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.599
I'm doing well? How about yourself? Well, thanks for joining us.

333
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:03.359
Good to have you on the show. You're a busy NBA guy.

334
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:07.119
Now how's that going for you?
Oh? I'm enjoying it, man,

335
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:11.880
enjoying every moment of the journey in
this next chapter in my career coaching career.

336
00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:17.920
We have a great staff, great
organization, and a pretty tough roster.

337
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:21.960
So we're looking forward to the season
and hopefully it ends, you know,

338
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:26.039
the way we all wanted to in
a championship. That's awesome. That

339
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:30.720
is awesome. So tell me how
it is. So you we've talked before

340
00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:33.039
and you said you liked the college
coaching, you know, now you're coach

341
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:37.319
Jet, but you're like, I
kind of like the schedule more on the

342
00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:40.559
college and stuff. Now we're coaching
pros. What how do you like that?

343
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:42.519
Oh? I love it. I
love it. I mean, there's

344
00:21:42.559 --> 00:21:48.039
really no difference nowadays because the guys
are coming in at such a younger age

345
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.599
and it's almost like you are coach
and college kids. Especially with our rosters.

346
00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:55.559
Way it's intact. Now there's a
couple of bets, but you've got

347
00:21:55.720 --> 00:21:59.799
most part these guys are one and
done or maybe two years at the most.

348
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:03.119
There's really not a lot of difference. And I say it at any

349
00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:06.039
level. I mean, obviously the
skill is what it is, but it's

350
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:11.400
all about people and coaching people and
getting you into the best versions of them

351
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:15.200
sales every day. Your timeline.
Okay, you you played a long time.

352
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.359
You played a heck of a long
time. We made a stop here

353
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:22.680
for a time. Are you kind
of projected to do something beyond this down

354
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.720
the road? What are you hoping
to do down the road. Well,

355
00:22:26.759 --> 00:22:30.480
I just want to continue to grow
as a coach where I'm at and as

356
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:34.640
I continue to elevate. Obviously,
as my big ultimate goal and dream is

357
00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:38.559
the one day lead a franchise as
a head coach at whatever level. But

358
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:41.559
right now, it's just continue to
develop, continue to grow as a coach,

359
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:45.880
and keep honing my skills and giving
back to the game. Yeah,

360
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:48.559
that's the fact that you the fact
that you were in the league for a

361
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:52.200
long time. And this is me, this is me talking. What do

362
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:56.960
I know right? Uh that you
have you have cred, You have NBA

363
00:22:56.079 --> 00:23:00.720
cred. Do the do the guys, kids now gonna play play hard for

364
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:04.880
you, will work hard for you
because you have that credit. Well,

365
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:11.359
I think for me, it's because
I crossed generations. And when I say

366
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:12.759
that, it is because I played
nineteen years, so I was in two

367
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:18.240
different decades to two different errors,
so to speak, almost three And so

368
00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:22.839
those guys understand I'm not too far
removed. I'm the old head, but

369
00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:26.720
I'm not just a fresh new guy
either. So the one thing about it

370
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.039
is they know I've completed at the
highest level. They know I have their

371
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:33.440
best interests, and I think that's
what gets their respect more than what I

372
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:37.119
did as a player, but more
as who I am as a person and

373
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:42.720
what I do for them every day, empowering them, encouraging them again to

374
00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:48.240
be the best version of themselves.
Hey, Jed, it's Chris here.

375
00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:53.119
You know you jb entering the coaching
ranks. You know, Ludosan, what

376
00:23:53.200 --> 00:23:57.319
was the biggest principle or the influence
that coach left on you that you're used

377
00:23:57.319 --> 00:24:03.839
today is as a coach self.
So it was all about selflessness. And

378
00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:08.160
obviously to become a coach you have
to have some sort of selflesslessness, and

379
00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:11.799
then you also have to have compassion. And I think those are two character

380
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:17.599
risks that Luke displayed every single day. That along with you know, accountability,

381
00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:22.880
holding yourself accountable, holding your teammates
accountable to a certain standard. Best

382
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:27.279
guys like myself, jb Luke,
I mean, Josh Pastor, you can

383
00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:33.160
go down the lot of the Mole
Simon x NBA guys, even Mike Bibby

384
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:36.599
coach at the high school level,
guys that have decided to, you know,

385
00:24:36.680 --> 00:24:41.680
take coaching on in their second careers. It's just all about the influence

386
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:44.839
that Luke had on us. Yeah, let me ask you, Jaked,

387
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:48.480
because the times you're changed. Back
then, you were the sixth man,

388
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:51.599
you and off the right, maybe
the record, but in my opinion,

389
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:53.079
you could have been a starter here
for a couple of years before you were

390
00:24:53.119 --> 00:24:57.240
coming off the bench. Given today's
basketball, had you been able to do

391
00:24:57.319 --> 00:25:00.240
that, you probably never with a
left R. You were for your guy.

392
00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:03.279
Even though you were for your guy, you know what I'm saying,

393
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:06.759
Because Bibby was a two year guy. Everybody else out there, but you

394
00:25:06.839 --> 00:25:10.640
could have probably did it. And
if today's ball was being played back then,

395
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:15.799
oh yeah. Obviously the reason that
these guys back then when I played,

396
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:18.680
and now, while we probably wouldn't
have left, really, I mean

397
00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:22.759
think about financially. You know,
a lot of us came from singing pairing

398
00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:29.759
background. You know the functional homes
were financially weren't as favors. Now that

399
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:33.240
doesn't really have an impact. So
you don't necessarily have to leave earlier.

400
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:38.599
Because of new Nila, guys are
to be compensated and there really is no

401
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:42.839
rust and so now you can stay
and develop. My thing was, I

402
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.480
never really thought about playing the NBA. I was more, you know,

403
00:25:47.599 --> 00:25:51.680
I wanted to play professionally obviously,
but I wanted to get my degree and

404
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:57.640
enjoy every moment on campus and over
some of the greatest four years. And

405
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:02.599
right, no, because you have
you grew with a lot of brothers from

406
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:03.799
that team, and you guys would
have killed at ninety eight. How you

407
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:08.200
nil? Right? Oh my goodness. You know when you went and asking

408
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:14.720
Timid, obviously everybody benefits and even
though we didn't have any ill, they

409
00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:18.680
treated as like we did. So
I still get that on Wildcat discount every

410
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:26.200
time they were about stopped everything every
single game. Well, yes, yet

411
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:30.799
I want to ask one quick question. You played your your best yours in

412
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:37.079
Dallas. You obviously won the championship
there in twenty eleven. What is Mark

413
00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:41.640
Cuban like and what's your relationship?
I love, absolutely love man. I

414
00:26:41.880 --> 00:26:45.839
get it most an any times somebody
brings up Mark, because he's more than

415
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:49.319
the owner. You know, he's
a friend. Uh, he's a he's

416
00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:52.640
a big brother. He's a guy
that if I call right now with us

417
00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:56.759
on this line, he would pick
up and answer his answer the phone for

418
00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:00.799
me. And that relationship continues even
you know, after I've been done playing,

419
00:27:02.359 --> 00:27:06.599
and you know the way he takes
care of his players while they're playing

420
00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:08.720
for him, and even when they
go on to other teams and on into

421
00:27:08.759 --> 00:27:14.440
retirement, he still has a genuine
love for you because you put that Maverick

422
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:19.160
uniform on and uh, you know
you did something for him and he continues

423
00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:22.400
to share that same love. I
mean, you gotta love his passion.

424
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:27.480
You gotta love the way he you
know, roots for his team and best

425
00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:30.519
type of like got a similar owner
in Ryan Smith. I mean, the

426
00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:34.359
same passion for the game, the
love of it. Obviously. You know

427
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:37.440
you can say they don't need the
money, it's just another investment for them,

428
00:27:37.559 --> 00:27:44.359
but these guys have a sweat equity
in their teams, not just financial

429
00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:48.799
Jed, I'm just curious. You
always hear the goat conversation, of course,

430
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:52.200
and when you when you think of
the goat, and I'm sure you're

431
00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:55.880
asked this question all the time,
is it is it? Should we be

432
00:27:55.920 --> 00:27:57.759
comparing eras or do we just go
goat of all time? When you talk

433
00:27:57.799 --> 00:28:03.000
with in that conversation, Well,
I mean, there's no doubt who my

434
00:28:03.119 --> 00:28:04.799
goat is. I mean, I
don't know a pair of shoes in my

435
00:28:04.799 --> 00:28:08.960
closet that's not a paire. I
knew he was going there. I'm just

436
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:12.319
curious people people like to take out
certain errors from the game, like the

437
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:15.720
sixties and seventy. I'm just curious
what you take is on that Mount Rushmore

438
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:19.880
conversation. Well, you can still
do the the goats of errors, and

439
00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:23.039
then the goat of all goat is
still for me going to be Michael Jordan.

440
00:28:23.079 --> 00:28:26.680
But if you say coat of errors, then obviously there's a there's a

441
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:33.799
good conversation, but uh is not
a barbershop talk. All these tis and

442
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:38.279
that that step into this arena have
done something that a small percentage of society

443
00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:41.839
has done. So I don't want
to, you know, devalue anybody's career

444
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:45.839
as you talk about top three.
In my eyes, I mean I got

445
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:49.400
MJ. Kobe and then Lebron is
right there. I mean, his career

446
00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:52.599
is not even over yet, and
he's already been talked about the goat.

447
00:28:52.720 --> 00:28:56.839
He's a goat for that in his
film. You know, he's still going.

448
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:00.359
Has there any been Has there ever
been a player that play at this

449
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:03.880
such a high level for this period
of time. There has not been,

450
00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:07.519
So he's going to have a say
so at the end of the day when

451
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:10.519
he finally hangs it up. And
I don't see it happening in time soon.

452
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:12.799
I have to scout against him last
year and you think he's slowing down

453
00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:15.799
and he's still, you know,
moving just as good. And he'll he'll

454
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:22.559
tell you, he'll tell you he's
the goat, King King. He is

455
00:29:22.559 --> 00:29:26.119
the King. There's no doubt about
it. Ju. I'm not sure you

456
00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:29.880
coach marketing, but you have him
on the team of all the of all

457
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:33.799
the Sean players, I would take
him number one in my draft. I

458
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.480
love because he can go inside outside
and he's just coming into his own in

459
00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:42.200
my opinion, right now listen watching
market in at the University Arizona. Sean

460
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:47.359
Miller did a phenomenal job with him, allowing him to not only post up,

461
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:51.680
but the play outside as well.
He reminds me so much of Darkness

462
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:55.559
and the way he played in his
young years. You know, adol able

463
00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:59.559
to move one two, drible pull
ups. He doesn't quite have the post

464
00:29:59.640 --> 00:30:02.920
game yet, but he's starting to
develop that. He's gotten stronger and his

465
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:07.039
confidence has grown. He definitely deserved
All Star last year, and he could

466
00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:11.559
argue, say, you know,
he could have been an All NBA performer.

467
00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:15.680
So I mean it's a joy to
coach him. He's he's basketball at

468
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:18.880
his purest form. He's a true, true student of the game, and

469
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:22.759
he's a gym rat and that's the
way why we love that. Yeah,

470
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:27.279
uniform deserve his country this summer.
So that did not know that? Tell

471
00:30:27.279 --> 00:30:30.960
me real quick, do you guys
have something planned? And Noah, So

472
00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:36.759
we had an autograph signing, meet
and greet over at the shop this Saturday.

473
00:30:36.920 --> 00:30:40.400
Some things can't happen like like it
happens. I was up in Vegas

474
00:30:40.440 --> 00:30:44.240
the Ed Sharon concert was they canceled
that show half an hour. You know

475
00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:48.000
things, but same with this kind
of you know schedule, my schedule.

476
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:51.599
Yeah, it didn't happen, but
we're gonna try to make it happen at

477
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:55.119
the end of October, is that
right, Jet, Yeah, hopefully we

478
00:30:55.160 --> 00:30:59.720
can get in there. We have
a road trip schedule for the Phoenix game.

479
00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:02.119
And what I'll do with the day
before the game, I'll come down.

480
00:31:03.599 --> 00:31:07.319
Hopefully it won't be my scout,
so we'll will come on, uh,

481
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:11.000
you know, meet some fans,
greet them, and then I'll give

482
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:15.880
two tickets to the Phoenix suns Utah
Dazz game. I know everybody wants to

483
00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:22.119

mean sorry not not seeing three but Bradley

484

Bill. You know, they got
a new Big three out there and our

485
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:29.759
Wildcat brothers DeAndre Aden. So it's
gonna be a great matchup. Two lucky

486
00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:33.279
fans, two lucky fans. You

487
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:37.799
and we'll send you up to Phoenix
so you can enjoy a great Wow.

488
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:41.200
Yeah, you have a nice mister
Judge money. A couple of quick

489
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:45.119
questions your girls. I know you
started coaching your girls a while back.

490
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:48.920
What are they up to? Are
they still playing? Are they gonna play

491
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:52.279
college. What's up? I really
don't want to say on air, but

492
00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:56.000
I got two daughters right now attending
Arizona State University. I don't know how

493
00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:00.519
it happened, but it did.
I'm just happy it in the school.

494
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:06.119
But the forks are halfway up in
my house. Uh but but they are

495
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:10.240
great young women. I have one
college graduate who has a master's degree working

496
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:15.039
on her master's and then my freshman
just went into school sophomore in high school,

497
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:19.160
and then an eight year old.
So hopefully the eight year olds the

498
00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:22.359
hooper. Everybody else is retired now, and uh, you know she she

499
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:25.680
shoots it like her daddy, so
hopefully she'll be the one nice nice JT.

500
00:32:25.880 --> 00:32:30.599
It was just yesterday I was falling
around the skinny kid from Seattle.

501
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:37.480
You and your dead yeah manx with
the socks, Yeah right right. I

502
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:38.839
think there was one more, but
I can't remember what the heck it was.

503
00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:42.599
Oh, you must be kind,
Come on, JT. You must

504
00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:46.000
be in heaven because you had a
fantastic career in the NBA. You're doing

505
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:49.640
what you love. Who thought?
Who would have thought this? Right?

506
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:52.400
And you're kind of living the life. Yeah, yeah you are. You're

507
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:55.279
living the life and you're able to. You know, a lot of people

508
00:32:55.319 --> 00:32:59.000
go to work because they have to. You know, I'm able to go

509
00:32:59.079 --> 00:33:02.799
to work and enjoy it and show
up every day with a smile, and

510
00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:06.839
I'm still around the game. Like
a lot of people. You know,

511
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:10.079
you have whatever employment you have,
but when you're done, you're just done.

512
00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:15.200
I'm able to still be around the
game, give him back, doing

513
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:17.480
what I love to do, and
I'm enjoying every minute of it. Last

514
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:21.440
thing, I knew what it was, JT line. I used to wear

515
00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:23.480
the crap out of your attire.
Do you have any old boxes for me?

516
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:31.359
Yeah, with the jet with the
jet logo, the white polo.

517
00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:35.559
Come on, I gotta get when
you come. Those are vintage, though,

518
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:38.240
you gotta, you gotta those are
vintage. Now yeah, I got

519
00:33:40.359 --> 00:33:44.799
okay, real quick. One question, now that you're a coached yet,

520
00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:47.920
and this is a tremendous draft class. You just did Summer League. You

521
00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:52.640
got to see all the young talent
you have, Wemby, the Twins,

522
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:57.079
the Thompson Twins. It's tremendous.
Who do you like? Who's your pick

523
00:33:57.160 --> 00:34:00.559
of rookie of the Year this year? We'll have to go with our own.

524
00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:04.039
I mean, and we got three
good rookies that we drafted in the

525
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:07.239
first round, and guys are tremendous
with some plant of time. He had

526
00:34:07.239 --> 00:34:12.079
a great summer league. I think
he'd be just getting a candidate as any

527
00:34:12.119 --> 00:34:15.239
of them. But you know,
it's hard to route for anybody else,

528
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:17.440
but I'm definitely gonna route for our
own, so that that would be my

529
00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:22.360
peak. There you go. Alright, Jason the college basketball Player of the

530
00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:24.679
Year in nineteen ninety nine. Do
we can't forget that? J T?

534
00:34:36.360 --> 00:34:38.760
canceler? I mean, oh the
show. I don't know. Sharon got

535
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:44.039
canceled halfway or literally half an hour
before the clature we were walking. Is

536
00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:45.719
that your purpose in going there?
Was purpose? I would never have you

537
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:52.559
an ed Sharon guy. Yeah,
talking my girl. Okay, that makes

538
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:59.360
it. Okay, there we go
if you're going sold exactly. But you

539
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:05.440
know it's first we get a NFL
football to be definitely wagers and analyze games.

540
00:35:05.480 --> 00:35:07.159
But yeah, it was It was
horrible. It was definitely a buzz

541
00:35:07.239 --> 00:35:12.320
kill. We're walking over the stadium. Half hour was No, it was

542
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:15.000
not that at the Allegiance stage.
Yeah. Yeah, you played the big

543
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:17.480
stadium, the Big Stadium, sold
it out, and wow, they pushed

544
00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:20.400
it back. They said, hey, it's gonna be a half hour delay.

545
00:35:20.440 --> 00:35:22.360
It's still one hundred and five degrees
versus people. I talked to people

546
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:27.239
that were in from Germany, the
UK. He's from UK that flew out

547
00:35:27.239 --> 00:35:30.440
there for this event, and they
just canceled. They said the stage they

548
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:34.280
had an issue with with the weight
of the stage, and they didn't want

549
00:35:34.280 --> 00:35:36.840
to, like, you know,
jeopardize any fans getting heard or something in

550
00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:39.639
case it collapsed. But you would
think they would. Kind of those legisims

551
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:44.599
you can figure out, you know, hey we got a ten thousand pounds

552
00:35:44.719 --> 00:35:46.360
stage we set up. We need
What did they do with your tickets?

632
00:41:19.920 --> 00:41:22.559
tonight, right, yeah, big
game. I love Buffalo, but me

633
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:27.239
too. I still have Buffalo because
I don't think the Jets are ready.

634
00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:30.920
Maybe we three wait for it's the
one that one game, one day hype.

635
00:41:31.039 --> 00:41:34.440
What's the what's the Draft Kings line
on it? I think my one

636
00:41:34.440 --> 00:41:37.760
and a half two and a half
is what I moved up for the Buffalo.

637
00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:39.960
Buffalo. Buffalo's two and a half
slain in New York, right,

638
00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:44.800
yeah, so I'll take the Jets. Okay, well two and a half.

639
00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:47.800
I don't know. Johsh Hellen,
you get Josh ball, which is

two touchdowns, three picks. Okay,

00:41:52.760 --> 00:41:54.119

Yeah, one of the one of
the drafts, one of the draft

666
00:43:34.199 --> 00:43:36.719
king player props, and I have
a buddy in my new bet on it.

667
00:43:37.159 --> 00:43:39.119
I'm just curious what you guys think. Galvin Cook over under rushing forty

668
00:43:39.159 --> 00:43:43.519
eight and a half, Well,
well, I don't know that's tough.

669
00:43:43.760 --> 00:43:45.400
They got the other running back brace
Hall, who's going Yeah, I know,

670
00:43:45.400 --> 00:43:47.239
but I think there's an he'll be
on his brother, he'll be on

671
00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:50.800
a pitch account, the other James
James Cook first Calvin. I think I

672
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:52.480
think Briefe will be on a pitch
account. Yeah, I'm gonna go over

673
00:43:52.599 --> 00:43:55.719
with Dalvin. I think he's that
is a good over. I mean normally

674
00:43:55.800 --> 00:43:59.800
typically you would say, I think
he's still got early, early, early

675
00:44:00.039 --> 00:44:02.239
early juice in those legs. Absolutely, he'll start to probably fade a little

676
00:44:02.239 --> 00:44:05.679
bit tween at the end of the
year. But I'm going over forty eight.

677
00:44:05.719 --> 00:44:07.760
I like it too. Yep.
He's a beast. Yeah, I'm

678
00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:12.800
not just agreeing with him. Should
he looks at me like George is my

679
00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:15.239
buddy. He's agree with me on
everything. He's smart on No. No,

680
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:16.840
he save me in on a bad
time at the beginning. But no,

681
00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:21.400
I kind of agree agree on Chris
Christal's this stuff, except that it's

682
00:44:21.480 --> 00:44:23.239
kind of a little too over the
top. Yeah, we we un smarts

683
00:44:23.320 --> 00:44:29.000
seventy five percent of the things.
And then this Arizona stuff. I think

684
00:44:29.039 --> 00:44:31.880
they're gonna be They play you tip
this weekend, right they should the seventh

685
00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:36.000
line of seventeen. Yeah, that's
not enough. Look, they're going to

686
00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:38.079
kill let me go back. I'm
coming hot only because I'm very passionate about

687
00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:40.760
the e I've been here my whole
life. Okay, I grew up as

688
00:44:40.960 --> 00:44:45.079
I'm an Arizona kid. It's like
being a Viking. It's like you go

689
00:44:45.119 --> 00:44:47.440
into the season, you're full of
hope. There's a lot of hype.

690
00:44:47.679 --> 00:44:51.519
You know, this is a year
six wins, seven wins, maybe go

691
00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:53.639
to a vow year. It's just
it's it's from the disappointment that just kills

692
00:44:53.679 --> 00:44:55.800
me. With you of a football
that's my one, no one, no

693
00:44:55.800 --> 00:44:59.079
one, is more of a I
am bared down all the way. But

694
00:44:59.159 --> 00:45:02.119
when we just historically, I want
to see us get over the hump,

695
00:45:02.280 --> 00:45:06.239
and when I see us in an
endgame situation where I think that we can

696
00:45:06.280 --> 00:45:09.000
win the endgame situation, not by
the line, it's just it frustrates me

697
00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:14.039
because we don't win those games.
And that's where that's where it comes from

698
00:45:14.079 --> 00:45:16.639
from me, is the frustration you're
emotionally at times. I'm very much like,

699
00:45:16.719 --> 00:45:19.679
yeah, I come from a good
place, but it's like when you're

700
00:45:19.679 --> 00:45:22.000
in the game, you're and you're
in a situation where you should win the

701
00:45:22.039 --> 00:45:23.599
game, It's like, why don't
we win those It's like the vikings,

702
00:45:23.639 --> 00:45:27.119
you just don't win the game.
And my point is you would have picked

703
00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:29.519
this game a month ago, two
weeks ago, a week ago, a

704
00:45:29.599 --> 00:45:32.159
day before. You're saying that's not
a game they're gonna win. I completely

705
00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:35.719
agree. But when you're in the
game and you're in a situation to win

706
00:45:35.719 --> 00:45:37.280
the game, could have won the
game. That's a game where they get

707
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:40.199
over the hump and they and they
take care of public perception, they win

708
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:43.719
the game. And now we're talking
about us as opposed to call it first

709
00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:45.840
year, assuming facts not into evidence. Guys, okay, they would have

710
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:50.480
gone to overtime. Let's assume they
going to it. There's not a guarantee

711
00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:52.559
that they're gonna win that game in
overtime, double overtime. You're not wrong,

712
00:45:52.880 --> 00:45:55.239
You're not wrong, but it's just
it's a game that you want to

713
00:45:55.239 --> 00:45:59.719
see them win over to. You
don't know, get your passion. I

714
00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:02.519
get passions from a good how frustrating. I am very frustrated by the way.

715
00:46:02.519 --> 00:46:07.119
You aren't. You aren't alone,
you aren't I'm not. I don't

716
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:08.119
think I'm on an island. I
thank you. I don't think I am.

717
00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:10.960
You're not from here Georgia. No, I grew up in La Okay,

718
00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:14.440
but I've lived here twenty five years, so you get it. I'm

719
00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:17.159
basically yeah, it's just a frustration
party. It's like someone told me a

720
00:46:17.239 --> 00:46:20.559
number the other day. How many
top twenty five AP finishes do you think

721
00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:23.960
the Arizona football team has in fifty
years? Fifty fifty years? Answer to

722
00:46:23.960 --> 00:46:25.599
this? Do you know the answer? Well, I'm sure, what what

723
00:46:25.599 --> 00:46:30.000
what was it? What top top
over fifty years? We gotta we gotta

724
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:34.519
turn that thing that we gotta hanging
up, I should we've been last fifty

725
00:46:34.599 --> 00:46:37.519
years? How many top twenty five
finishes APY finishes is top five, top

726
00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:42.760
twenty five top twenty five AP finishes? Is Arizona having fifty years fifty years?

727
00:46:42.800 --> 00:46:46.480
I'd say twelve. I'm gonna say
less than five, maybe five,

728
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:51.760
seven, seven, and my guess
seven in the top twenty five fifty years.

729
00:46:51.840 --> 00:46:54.599
Yeah, all right, might be
closer fifteen to twenty five. But

730
00:46:54.639 --> 00:46:58.000
it's just like even as a kid, like we're on the cover of Sports

731
00:46:58.000 --> 00:47:00.440
Illustrated, it's Desert Swarm. This
is the year, Like we're gonna go

732
00:47:00.480 --> 00:47:04.440
to the Rose Bowl, we might
win the national championship. We go into

733
00:47:04.480 --> 00:47:07.199
Penn State, LaVar Arrington, LaVar
Arrington just rolls as we lose like forty

734
00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:12.000
two ten. The season is over
before it's like, it's that's the typical

735
00:47:12.000 --> 00:47:14.760
stuff I'm talking about with you of
a football. That's why you get the

736
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:17.480
Chuck Seaestill highlights and you get you
get the Ortege Jenkins flips because that's all

737
00:47:17.480 --> 00:47:21.000
we got. It's like you're on
the cover Sports Illustration, You're supposed to

738
00:47:21.000 --> 00:47:22.400
go to the Roseball, your Desertswarm, and you get rolled in Penn State

739
00:47:22.760 --> 00:47:27.039
and it's over. We're the only
ones. Yeah, the other one and

740
00:47:27.039 --> 00:47:29.360
you end up in the Holiday Ball
that year. It's like nobody. It's

741
00:47:29.400 --> 00:47:31.159
like, that's the that's the part
I'm talking about. That's what's frustrating to

742
00:47:31.159 --> 00:47:34.079
me. Are you saying I've set
the bar high? I mean, I'm

743
00:47:34.119 --> 00:47:35.679
not a fan. I'm not a
fan, you know, I'm just a

744
00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:37.840
journalist kind of You're looking in the
middle, like you you're depressing even me.

745
00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:42.960
That's why that's where my pain comes
from. I mean, we're on

746
00:47:43.000 --> 00:47:45.880
the car. I mean, you
got Desert Swarp, you go in too,

747
00:47:45.880 --> 00:47:47.760
Penn State and Happy Valley Lavaron.
It's just wait, we were like

748
00:47:47.760 --> 00:47:51.719
probably ten point favorite that day.
When we get rolled. It's like,

749
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:55.079
that's the partic of being a you
of a football fan, so you know,

750
00:47:55.159 --> 00:47:58.320
you can always change your allegiance.
And when I won't do that,

751
00:47:58.559 --> 00:48:00.280
I'm a bear down. That's what
I love about fans. That's what God

752
00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:04.920
saying. That's what I'm on Saturday. People are tweeting all this team stucks

753
00:48:04.920 --> 00:48:07.280
getting Laura out of there, blah
blah blah, and and he did not

754
00:48:07.320 --> 00:48:09.760
play well in the first time.
I get that, but then all of

755
00:48:09.800 --> 00:48:14.239
a sudden Oh he look at look, look he's doing well. But they

756
00:48:14.320 --> 00:48:19.960
jump off the wagon and then jump
right back. Just stop tweeting right away

757
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:22.559
it happened, tweets tacks. That's
always like, you know what, though

758
00:48:22.599 --> 00:48:25.440
it's over, but it's part of
being a fan. I don't get No,

759
00:48:25.679 --> 00:48:29.480
it's just the emotional roller coaster.
Right. Baker Mayfield was a dud

760
00:48:29.519 --> 00:48:31.480
for for for fourteen minutes. Just
say the first and then he rolls the

761
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:35.199
Vikings and everyone's like, oh,
he's he's got the moxie. This is

762
00:48:35.239 --> 00:48:37.199
the Baker Mayfuld we've been waiting for. It's like that's just part of because

763
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:40.239
someone tweeted me exactly, that's just
it's the way the fans are. And

764
00:48:40.239 --> 00:48:44.639
I'm thinking they need to relax and
take a chill bill because the game was

765
00:48:44.800 --> 00:48:46.480
for ten minutes in Arizona football things. You don't know what the mean.

766
00:48:46.519 --> 00:48:51.159
You just said you haven't been here
to grow up with it. It's like

767
00:48:51.400 --> 00:48:53.800
it's heartache. You don't have to
do that. You can get off the

768
00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:58.079
way we're built in because we're passionate, because we we you know what,

769
00:48:58.119 --> 00:49:00.239
we haven't been there yet, that's
what we don't We don't act like we've

770
00:49:00.239 --> 00:49:01.920
been there, because we've never been
there. It's not all nothing. I

771
00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:07.480
mean, there's something you come on
at the beginning of the year. How

772
00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:08.559
many wins did you think they're gonna
have? I had, I had,

773
00:49:08.599 --> 00:49:12.320
I had I found I'd have to
look through the schedule at the beginning here

774
00:49:12.360 --> 00:49:14.880
you would have had me. I
gave Colorado win. I gain must have

775
00:49:14.880 --> 00:49:21.280
win. Now, I don't know, Sanders, I had six wins.

776
00:49:20.119 --> 00:49:22.800
I think it was five and a
half. Yeah, it was three and

777
00:49:22.800 --> 00:49:25.679
a half last year. Well,
now it's gonna be under Yeah, that's

778
00:49:25.679 --> 00:49:31.280
hard. I think I found six
wins the issue done the year, right,

779
00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:34.280
Yeah, and I had us over
Colorado. So now I don't know.

780
00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:36.639
I'm taking that one back right now
too. I gotta be honest.

781
00:49:37.039 --> 00:49:38.920
I mean, I'm drinking that cool
who's not drinking the buffalo. Of course

782
00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:43.159
they're gonna be three and o after
this week, and then it gets real.

783
00:49:43.280 --> 00:49:45.480
And then then it gets real.
There's some good teams in the back

784
00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:47.559
usc Oregon. They gotta they gotta
go. I'd say, call guys if

785
00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:51.039
you guys want to call, but
don't call because this is crazy and here,

786
00:49:51.199 --> 00:49:53.559
no, it's good. We got
we gotta call let's do because we

787
00:49:53.599 --> 00:49:57.519
got a couplements. Hey, welcome
to behind the ball. You got a

788
00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:00.719
couple of minutes. Who's this?
Hey, Steve, this is done?

789
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:02.760
How you doing? Can you understand
a word? Anybody saying? Here?

790
00:50:02.840 --> 00:50:08.920
God, this is crazy? No, I can't because you let George keep

791
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:14.800
saying the same thing that takes about
ten seconds to say, and he's been

792
00:50:14.880 --> 00:50:22.400
saying it since three o'clock. What
is but to defend George, Steve,

793
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:28.480
you can't. You can't tell a
fan of any school, especially if you

794
00:50:28.559 --> 00:50:32.039
grew up here, you know,
or somebody that grew up wherever. You

795
00:50:32.079 --> 00:50:37.159
can't tell him. Hey, you
can change your allegiance right now that you

796
00:50:37.480 --> 00:50:42.679
tell me that he was telling that
transgender fan. You can't do that.

797
00:50:43.639 --> 00:50:45.480
My point is you don't have to
have a heart attack from this thing.

798
00:50:45.599 --> 00:50:50.840
You're allowed to have heart attack.
Absolutely, I'm saving your life right now.

799
00:50:51.159 --> 00:50:54.760
Well, the problem is that the
thing is and George, George admitted

800
00:50:54.800 --> 00:50:59.840
he only saw the highlights. We
still got the touchdown when t Mac took

801
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:05.000
uh steps on the sideline, we
still got the touchdown on that point.

802
00:51:05.079 --> 00:51:07.280
It was unfortunate because there was a
big play. But do let me ask

803
00:51:07.320 --> 00:51:10.239
you this. So you're talking Chris, not George. Chris. Chris is

804
00:51:10.239 --> 00:51:13.360
the looney one. I'm the Looney
tune down. But I think you're kind

805
00:51:13.400 --> 00:51:15.039
of defending me away, John.
Do you want you understand though, that

806
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:20.079
the heartache? It sounds like it's
like to me, that's just it's it's

807
00:51:20.119 --> 00:51:24.800
the constant let down that I grew
up here. I've told the guys.

808
00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:30.800
I've told the guys in the past
what I would like for Jetfish and whatever

809
00:51:30.840 --> 00:51:37.800
he leaves a program behind. I'd
like us to be calm, a consistent

810
00:51:37.199 --> 00:51:45.519
seven eight game winning team and every
three four years have that eleven twelve win

811
00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:51.320
season week. So they were,
Hey, if we're going to balls all

812
00:51:51.320 --> 00:51:55.679
the time and we're constantly in the
mix and we're in games like like Mississippi

813
00:51:55.719 --> 00:52:00.639
State, I mean this week,
we have no business us being in that

814
00:52:00.719 --> 00:52:04.039
game. And you're right, Don
we gotta go exactly your point. It's

815
00:52:04.079 --> 00:52:08.280
better said than Chris is here.
Thank you. I'm a good guy.

816
00:52:08.760 --> 00:52:10.760
Alright, just take a break,
come back
