WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:05.120 Oh yeah, come on now down the home stretch of a home day show, 2 00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:12.240 Rode pepered rogue. All right, we need spirituality. We gotta come 3 00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:16.359 together here, Yes we do. And who better to have done to provide 4 00:00:16.399 --> 00:00:21.320 that than our good friend Victor Brick with the daily haikup at two vicod afternoon. 5 00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:34.920 I'm still absorbing the profound wisdom of Jerry West on the legendary our hero 6 00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:44.640 Kobe Bryant. That was sensational insights from the logo. Can't argue that, 7 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:57.200 Victor, Wow. And Jerry is so humble. He had the insight, 8 00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:11.400 he had the basketball wisdom to know the incredible potential of Kobe Bryant when others 9 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:15.439 did not. But Jerry is too humble to say that. But I'm not 10 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:21.560 Jerry. It's a basketball genius. And he understood, he knew what was 11 00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:26.079 going on in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Lower Marian he knew Low Marian Man. 12 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:34.840 He knew, he understood the greatness that awaits You think they'll ever change the 13 00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.959 logo? No, No, because there's a big debate what a few years 14 00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.840 ago, right, and that it changed it? And even I think there 15 00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:48.760 was a debate events to go to Kobe or Jordan yep. I think since 16 00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:52.439 that's passed, I don't see them changing it. I don't either, really 17 00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:59.239 don't. Jerry West is so selfless. He still doesn't think the logo is 18 00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:05.040 in m He asked that that it's clearly him if you look at the photo 19 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:14.560 side by side clear. What's also clear is a horrific storm is losing steam 20 00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:22.680 and he's just getting started. Fred Rogan, Hello again, vic here comes 21 00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:31.800 the sun, Rodney Pete, Hey, it's coming. His content flows like 22 00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:37.599 the La River.

But the Clippers undeniably, no one's talking about them and they're the 61 00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:58.279 best team in the association right now. Yes, incredible production. And you 62 00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:00.160 know, give it up for Paul George. It was, you know, 63 00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:05.560 nursing a groin injury and he was playing through it.

Of course, the Lakers will be 77 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:46.559 wharing Kobe inspired UNI's you know, mamba snake skin flavor at their last war 78 00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:52.399 during the Championship Beer twenty twenty. But Jerry West, will you know? 79 00:08:52.480 --> 00:09:00.000 It triggers so many emotions with that fabulous interview, And I go back to 80 00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.519 my first moments with Covid. He was seventeen years old, fresh from Philadelphia, 81 00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.480 playing summer league in Long Beach. He's staying in a Long Beach hotel 82 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:15.600 and I called the hotel to see if I can in touch with Cob and 83 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.120 Cobe. As it's the phone, I say, Cob, welcome to Los 84 00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:24.639 Angeles. We are so pumped you were here. Love to meet you. 85 00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:26.639 Is it possible to come by this afternoon for a few moments? He says, 86 00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:33.200 sure, come on over, Vic. So my first moment with Cob 87 00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:39.919 was in his hotel room after a practice and he was basically bathed in ice 88 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:46.159 his whole lower body and munching on some French fries and just in ice for 89 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:54.279 like an hour. It's seventeen seventeen, just understood, you know, the 90 00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.440 dedication to one's body. And of course it got him through so many incredible 91 00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.519 times with you know, super training, Gary Vet, who would wrap him 92 00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:09.919 up like a mummy to go out there some nights. But uh, that's 93 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:24.679 the the legend of Kobe Bryant. So how about the Super Bowl? Fellas 94 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:31.879 is there is one crazy storyline? Of course? Will Travis Kelcey propose to 95 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:37.200 tell a swift Ronnie hit me? No good? This is a hit me 96 00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:43.480 moment? Oh yeah, this is a storyline, by the way, Yeah, 97 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:54.279 Kelsey can't can't get enough. As he gets he gets peppered with this 98 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.960 question whenever he sits down with reporters. You know what's up with Tale? 99 00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.639 And basically you know they're so in love. You could tell they're so in 100 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:13.240 love, Vic, can you not? According to Eric Dickerson, you're right. 101 00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:18.919 Yeah, it hasn't even been a calendar year yet. I don't think 102 00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.840 have they been dating for even twelve months? No, I don't think they 103 00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:26.679 have been. I know things happen fast sometimes, but maybe you slow that 104 00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:31.120 down. VIC, call it like you see it. Vic. I'm with 105 00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:37.519 you, I see an incredible love affair. And Travis says when they ask 106 00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:41.480 him about a possible wedding ring, says, the only ring I'm focused on 107 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:48.240 is the Super Bowl ring. That's the right answer, all right, But 108 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:52.120 you know you hear Kelsey, he can talk Taylor for hours upon hours. 109 00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:58.919 What do you mean he can talk Taylor for hours and hours? He just 110 00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:07.840 he loves talking about her accomplishments, her energy. I mean that's that's love, 111 00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.519 of course. Swift now in Japan, he's doing back to back to 112 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:22.600 back to back shows and Sayonara Tokyo and Hello Las Vegas. When Air Taylor 113 00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:30.000 gets in Saturday night, talks for timing for some pregame partying with the Chiefs 114 00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:35.480 Kingdom. But Kelsey today in Vegas planted a seat of doubt that Taylor might 115 00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:41.200 miss the big Game. How devastating. I mean, Kelsey, are you 116 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:46.240 kidding me? There's no way Swift misses the Mother of All Bowls with Boo 117 00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:50.799 in the middle of this madness. No way, no way, no way. 118 00:12:52.159 --> 00:13:01.759 Well, think it's a long flight, Fred, it's Air Taylor. 119 00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:07.120 You don't think she's gonna think it's not Air Taylor. It is not Air 120 00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:09.720 Taylor, Vick. She might be in a private plan. I'm sure she 121 00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:15.360 will be, but it's not called air Taylor. Always always under the assumption 122 00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:20.600 it was air Taylor. No, No, it's not. No. You 123 00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.200 know what this whole conspiracy theory that the NFL is cooked up. You know 124 00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:26.080 how this is gonna play out. I'll tell you right now. Chiefs are 125 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:30.559 down seventeen fourteen, three and a half minutes to go. Taylor's not there. 126 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:35.200 She comes walking through the tunnel. Okay. Travis Kelsey is battling a 127 00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.840 hamstring all game long, and then he pops up like the Undertaker, catches 128 00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:41.919 a game when it touchdown with a minute left. Chiefs win the Super Bowl, 129 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.759 and he proposes after the game at the postgame press conference. That's how 130 00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:52.240 it works. That's beautiful, Hollywood. That's Hollywood. Okay, think that's 131 00:13:52.279 --> 00:14:07.000 beautiful. VIC love that. I'm soaking that scenario in. Soak it in. 132 00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:11.240 Oh, that's wonderful. You guys have any Super Bowl predictions you have? 133 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:16.720 You gonna wait till Friday. I'm gonna wait, Vic, Yeah, 134 00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:18.279 not yet, Vic. I'm gonna let it marinate a little, let it 135 00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:26.399 marinate. Yeah, I think the line is one to two points, favoring 136 00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:35.960 the forty nine ers again the Chiefs underdogs for what what if my prediction is 137 00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:41.559 this, I don't care what which team wins. What if that was my 138 00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:45.600 prediction is that? Okay? You how dare you? Fred? Fred? 139 00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:50.879 You have I understand you're still devastated by the Lion's loss, but you gotta 140 00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:58.759 move on. Okay, I've moved on. Don't really care. I hope 141 00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:01.279 you know what, I hope It's an exciting game, That's what I hope. 142 00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:07.679 Well, the commercials are going to be crazy funky. So you know 143 00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:11.759 some of the major players are pulling out this year. They're not spending the 144 00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:13.039 money in the commercials. They don't think they work like they used to. 145 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.639 How much is it for a thirty second spot? Like how many millions? 146 00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:24.120 Seven million dollars or some crazy number like that. Yeah, it's like five 147 00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:28.720 to seven. I read two numbers for a thirty second spot. New York 148 00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:33.200 Time says seven million dollars for a thirty second ad. Yay, yay, 149 00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:37.080 yay that you Yeah, and like Ford I read is pulling out and said, 150 00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:43.639 there's no reason for us to even do this. I remember it was 151 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:48.440 in the hundreds of thousands not too long ago, two hundred thousand dollars for 152 00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:52.080 a thirty second ad. Kevin, how many breaks are there? You know 153 00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:56.440 that any game? Yeah? You know how many breaks there are? Oh 154 00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:58.480 well, on a typical broadcast, you have about five per quarter. But 155 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:03.039 danel, we have an extended halftime for the Super Bowl. They might add 156 00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:08.000 add an additional break or two, but traditionally fire per quarter, a couple 157 00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:12.679 and halftime. Okay, so you gotta figure it's uh at that price point, 158 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:21.519 the network makes about six hundred million dollars seven hundred million. That's a 159 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:26.039 hefty profit. But this is this is a game of games. This is 160 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:32.720 the game of games, Mother of all bulls. Yeah, and it's our 161 00:16:32.720 --> 00:16:34.879 party, It's America's party. Let's face it. You know where that leads 162 00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:41.519 VIC to the source? Mm hmm oh yeah, And I go to the 163 00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:48.879 greatest Haiku poet of all time and space by show the most prominent on the 164 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:56.240 Mount Rushmore of Haiku, along with bussan Issa and Chiki, this hikup for 165 00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:03.759 you on this Wednesday, February the seventh from Basha, Wake up, wake 166 00:17:03.880 --> 00:17:11.240 up now do you sleepy headed butterfly?
