WEBVTT

1
00:00:02.480 --> 00:00:07.559
Breaking down all the exes and oh, it's Steve Rivera and Jake and Summons.

2
00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:12.839
This is I on the Ball on
Fox Sports fourteenth the Hey, welcome

3
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:15.560
back to Iving the Ball hero Fox
Sports fourteen fifteen. I'm Steve, he's

4
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:19.280
Jake got Kevin with breaking news.
Oh, we sure do have some breaking

5
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:23.280
news. So we're gonna talk about
the college football playoff ranking. Come.

6
00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:26.440
They're gonna start out at four o'clock
here, right, programs about to come

7
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:34.399
on an ESPN app. So well, we'll we'll bring those up as soon

8
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:37.399
as they start posting. I expect
they're going to put the top six up

9
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:41.200
right away, so we'll see what
they come up with. But we'll we'll

10
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:43.799
do kind of a play by play
on that as soon as we can get

11
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.520
this thing. You guys have any
ideas on what that might look like?

12
00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:49.119
Well, you know, the big
the big mystery is what do they do

13
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:54.600
with Michigan, right because they got
this this thing going on with the with

14
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:58.840
the sign stealing and the impermissible scouting
and stuff like that. So we'll see

15
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:00.399
what they do with that. So
some people are saying they might be left

16
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:04.040
out of the top five or out
of the top four because of that,

17
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:11.120
So we'll see and then as far
as the World Series goes, Adovies Garcia

18
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:15.879
is out of tonight's game with an
oblique strain that he sustained in last night's

19
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:18.920
game in the eighth inning. He
tried to give it a go today in

20
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.840
batting practice, but he couldn't.
He couldn't make it go. So uh,

21
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:25.519
Travis Shankowski is gonna step in for
him. The thirty two or Olds

22
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:29.480
only had two at Baskets playoffs and
he's won for two. Big weenie,

23
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:38.560
big baby Adulas can't swing a bat, so he's paid to do. He's

24
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.239
not bitter. I'm not bitter.
I'm just saying he's a big baby.

25
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:47.359
You're making millions and millions of dollars. You get a little bleak thing,

26
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.560
and you can't swing a bat,
big wi in the World Series. No

27
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:56.400
less it hurts too much. Sorry, Okay, I would assume he tried

28
00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:57.280
to get it. You know,
he could be He could beat my ass

29
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.840
if he wanted to. So I'm
not gonna Yeah, you're not saying I'll

30
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.840
fight him. Yeah, I'll run
like all right, you know, yeah,

31
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.800
I just got to get into a
room and lock the door. You'll

32
00:02:07.800 --> 00:02:10.199
gotta be faster than him. You
gotta be faster than Steve. And I

33
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.759
exactly, he's over there behind that
door, over there, faster faster than

34
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:21.800
the slowest sky. All right.
Kirk Curve Street released the top coaches of

35
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.759
the week for week nine list,
and uh we had Kenny Dillingham of a

36
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:29.400
SU make number seven. Oh okay, well, yeah, because they had

37
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:34.280
a nice win against Washington State.
Okay. Dave Dorin made number six,

38
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:39.000
Jeff Brown number five, and Jed
Fish comes in at number four behind Brent

39
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:44.120
Key of Georgia Tech, Lance Leaphold
of KU who pulled off the big win

40
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:51.199
last week, and Dan Lanning ranked
number one in kirk Streets though, and

41
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:53.680
well, we talked about that yesterday. I think we both think Oregon is

42
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:55.639
a better team than now. And
you're coming on my side of it,

43
00:02:55.680 --> 00:03:00.039
I know. But at least I
didn't pick USC. Well, well,

44
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:08.680
at least I'm getting not getting my
ass kids. Well us you could wake

45
00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:12.479
up and win the dead. Well, they they got washed this week.

46
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.159
Let me tell you that they ain't
doing that though they're they're they're in a

47
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:20.479
not even in a free fall.
You can I would bet my last two

48
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:24.520
dollars in my pocket, that there's
trouble on that ruster, that there's guys

49
00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:27.719
who probably just don't want to be
there. They just they're just saying,

50
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.360
you know, the hell with this, Yeah, because we're going to the

51
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:32.919
Yeah, I'm going to the NFL. And yeah, no, we saw

52
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:36.520
it, we've seen it. Yeah, what the hell I got two more

53
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.240
months here? Can't be the hell
off this train? Exactly, exactly,

54
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:44.919
all right. Speaking of speaking of
schools with with rough offensive lines and rough

55
00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:49.919
defenses, Colorado experience a robbery halftime
of their game. Halftime while they're playing

56
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:53.479
their game, some players at a
rose. Some players had their jewelry,

57
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:58.719
cash and other belongings. What in
the world are you doing with that stuff

58
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:01.159
at the game? What the hell
you taking it with you? Because they

59
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.719
were one of their like you know, the bus and you know, getting

60
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:10.280
going to the locker room there on
the Yeah, I thought, like,

61
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:15.199
you're taking how many? Which was
some players are wearing the jeweler on the

62
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:18.600
field nowadays, So I don't why
in the world why, I have no

63
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:21.480
idea. And then after the game
they have Easter e hunts for jewelries on

64
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:27.680
the floor of the field. I
mean hopefully they're well made class well hopefully

65
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:30.720
Why would you wear why would you? I don't, I mean statements,

66
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:33.600
it's a well, it's like the
statement. You probably saw this on the

67
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:35.720
in the first game, first game
in the World Series, maybe the second

68
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:42.199
game when he had all these how
was he pitching with all that? I'm

69
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:46.279
talking about the center fielder. The
center fielder. Yeah, I don't remember

70
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:47.879
that guy the picture. I'm thinking, Yeah, I look at some of

71
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:50.079
those guys and I wonder how they
can play. You move? Bookie Bets

72
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:53.600
wears a lot of suns and bounces
and bounces when you're got to be a

73
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.959
little bit of a distraction, especially
for baseball where you probably get it and

74
00:04:57.040 --> 00:05:00.360
they're used to it. They're used
to it, but still on, Yeah,

75
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:03.639
come on, I jiggle with my
my, my, my watch,

76
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:08.839
my not my watch, my eyeglasses, bounce around. Dion said that he

77
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:11.879
wanted a reimbursement from the n C
Double A for his players, who largely

78
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:15.720
had their Julia was uninsured. How
much how much did they say, we

79
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:17.720
don't know. It hasn't come out
yet exactly how much was sol in?

80
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:23.120
Dion did have a pretty He's always
gonna have one. Of those he said,

81
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:25.759
this is the Rose Bowl. They
said the granddaddy of mall Right,

82
00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:30.319
I'm sure granddaddy had some money.
Grandpa should pay some money. So I

83
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:35.959
feel like he's gonna sat Suar out
of the next practice because he took so

84
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:41.480
many hits and he had to get
injected to continue in their last even play

85
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:46.759
the whole game. No, Sila
didn't play the whole game. And then

86
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:51.240
today's last bit of breaking news today
was the NFL trade deadline. Some pretty

87
00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:55.639
big time deals went down. Chase
Young is making his way over to San

88
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:59.680
Francisco to team up with Nick Closa, which should be a pretty scary defensive

89
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:04.600
line duo. You're also seeing the
Lions. They beefed up their wide receiver

90
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:09.480
room with Donovan people Jones coming over
for a six round pick from the Browns

91
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:14.839
and as far I mean, Josh
Dobbs. That's a strange move, but

92
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:16.839
they a little I know, well
they weren't gonna use Dobbs anymore, so

93
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:19.839
they went on and got no.
But but that's from Minnesota. What the

94
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:26.240
guy couldn't play in Arizona, now
he's gonna be playing for Minnesota. Well,

95
00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:29.079
did they bring him in as a
starter, he's a backup. He's

96
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:31.439
a because he doesn't know the system. Right now, we'll see how long,

97
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.000
all right, they're going. They're
going from twenty five on up.

98
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:40.879
I see UCLA at nineteen, USC
at twenty, Utah at eighteen, so

99
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:45.480
eight, Oregon State at six so
sixteen is Oregon State, seventeen is Tennessee,

100
00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:48.720
Utah, Ucla, and USC eighteen
nineteen twenty so. I mean,

101
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:53.000
those those numbers don't matter. Those
guys are all have two losses, so

102
00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:56.079
they're just in the rankings. But
they're not you know, they're not gonna

103
00:06:56.240 --> 00:07:00.160
gonna be They're not gonna be able
to make their way up to uh up

104
00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:02.720
to uh you know, the the
playoffs. I did it. I did

105
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:09.439
see the Facebook post Paskala Well said, you know it was it was to

106
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:12.759
a year post or to your the
article you wrote and saying, you know

107
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:16.360
why is in Arizona wins in Arizona
rank I'm like, Paul, they got

108
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:19.839
three losses. Nobody else in the
league rankings has three losses. You can

109
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:24.279
do that with if you'r USC,
you know, Washington Organ, you can

110
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:27.480
have three losses. Being the rankings
in Arizona, you can't be in the

111
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.959
rankings with losses at the very worst
or best twenty five at the very best.

112
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.240
But no, of course, well
this is of course people who don't

113
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:39.240
know the ranks how they were.
You know, if they beat U,

114
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:41.240
C. L A, and there's
some other things that maybe at six and

115
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:45.199
three you're in there because you've beaten
three three ranked teams. They're playing like

116
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:47.399
they're capable, right, but you
have some baggage. You got some baggage

117
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:51.839
exactly. You're you're dragging this stuff
that that you did early in the season.

118
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:55.319
I used to be a skinny guy. I'm not. I got baggage.

119
00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:01.759
Now I'm not a ten anymore.
Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna

120
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:07.839
leave that alone. I'm give me
a little cri. This depends on the

121
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:13.279
day. Yeah, today about good
stuffs. All right, okay, we're

122
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:18.120
well, they worked the way up
eleven through fifteen or Penn State, Missouri,

123
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:22.959
Louisville, l s U, and
Notre Dame. Uh. And now

124
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:26.240
we're going to number ten is Old
miss at seven and one, they're going

125
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:28.600
to work the way up. I
don't have the volume ons. We're just

126
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:33.440
seeing them as they come across so
Ole miss At number ten, they're also

127
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:35.240
seven and one. They still got
a game coming up with I think,

128
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:43.240
uh they played Georgia pretty soon.
Miss yeah? Yeah? Uh Oklahoma wow?

129
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:50.720
Down to number nine? Oh yeah, that's far that hurts. Who

130
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:56.240
are gonna give the kiss this weekend? Maybe Washington because I think they're only

131
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.960
giving three to you to USC?
Was it? Yeah? I don't know.

132
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:05.840
Well, Okay, Alabama at eight, wow? Yeah, yeah,

133
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:09.879
they're not even good. They need
a quarterback. Well, think a big

134
00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:11.159
game with LSU this week. Yeah, I don't know where we go there,

135
00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.879
Yeah, it's at USC. The
Washington game is at Okay. Yeah,

136
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:18.480
I don't even know if that matters
anymore. It doesn't. It's it'sarily

137
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:20.159
not in the coliseum. I mean
they're not, they're not. You know,

138
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:24.879
well, Arizona can do that to
them there, exactly, yeah exactly.

139
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.279
But you know again, Washington hasn't
played well the last the last three

140
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:31.679
three weeks now, so we'll see. So yeah, so Alabama eight,

141
00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:39.399
Oklahoma nine, Ole, Miss ten, Texas at seven. I would have

142
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:43.279
thought all three of those teams would
have been higher, but mains to be

143
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:45.600
seen. Who's gonna gonna come up. Well, they're gonna have some good

144
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.320
teams. So it's it's one through
six that they kind of highlight because it's

145
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.639
kind of like, Okay, those
are the ones that are really in the

146
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:54.039
hunt. You have to get a
playoff spot. So but you have seven

147
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:58.679
is Texas, eight is Alabama,
nine is Oklahoma, and ten is Almoss.

148
00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:01.519
All four of those teams are seven
and one, but they all have

149
00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:03.720
a they all have a loss.
Yeah, they're all seven and one.

150
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:05.399
So I'm sure about to go to
a commercial before they come back and do

151
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:09.919
the other the other six. So
who's the Let's switch to pros before we

152
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.879
come back with this. Who's the
best NFL team right now? It has

153
00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.200
to be the Eagles. You have
to Eagles right now. I have to

154
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.720
say it's the Dolphins. The Dolphins
beat the crap out of them two weeks

155
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:26.919
ago, beat the crap out of
who Miami. No, the Dolphins are

156
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:31.960
Miami, the Philly Philly. Yeah, crap out of Miami. I know

157
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:35.759
that, but I still think,
but you know, but Washington also beat

158
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:39.159
Oregon. I still think Oregon is
a better team. That's a bad example.

159
00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:43.480
No, I think I just I
just think the Dolphins are seemed more.

160
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.360
I mean, the Eagles struggle last
week against against the freaking Commanders.

161
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.039
They were down, they were down
fourteen to nothing. That was because they

162
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:58.919
just beat the Dolphins. They know, who's your Philly. I think it's

163
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:03.200
Philly's got I think it's Phil.
I think it's Philly two. Right now,

164
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:07.440
I think Miami's obviously top three.
I don't even know who the top

165
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.120
two would be. Well, the
Chiefs, the chief Chiefs ain't lost their

166
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:13.559
kind of like their mystique, right
and guess what not just last weekend?

167
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:16.960
All week they have them all year. They haven't played for they haven't played

168
00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:20.480
with the Chiefs have correct they don't
have the weapons that they did, And

169
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:22.879
I think that's like the problem.
I mean, they're just not they're not

170
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.679
the same team that we're expecting them
to. Yeah, well they say that,

171
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:28.720
Travis Kelsey, but they don't.
You're right, they don't have those

172
00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:33.320
other receivers that well, it's like
Buffalo. Buffalo doesn't have the same porches

173
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:37.840
either. Josh Allen, yep,
and they know what's the name digs.

174
00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:43.720
Josh Allen's your decision maker. In
my opinion, that's a cap on how

175
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:48.120
far you can go. Yeah,
we'll see, we'll see. I think

176
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:50.639
it's I think it's right now,
it's Philly. Miami's are up there obviously

177
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:56.919
too. Oh man, Miami just
seems so much more explosive. It's like

178
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.519
the Eagles grind out their wins and
the Dolphins come out. He score a

179
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.000
bunch of points and yeah, no, if you want to be sexy and

180
00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:09.679
cool to watch, Miami's Yeah,
but Philly, Philly kind of just bores

181
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:13.399
you to a win. I'm being
blamed for the forty nine ers as you

182
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.120
show that I locked them and then
they went on and they've been on a

183
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:20.159
three game losing streaks and then that's
they have issues now at quarterback when he

184
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:26.960
was sensational, Yeah, he's not
sensational playing well, he's throwing some bad

185
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:31.360
picks. Yeah, well he was
what do you have a concussion? It

186
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:33.519
was a concussion protocol and then he
played. Yeah, well there you go,

187
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.600
yeah, there you go. All
right, it looks like you're about

188
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:41.759
to put up the top one through
six. They got Oregon at six,

189
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.480
so I mean, Washington's gonna got
to be in the top four then,

190
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:54.080
but uh so or organised six six
at seven and one, so again another

191
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.799
one loss team right there. Yeah, you know, I mean, regardless

192
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:03.320
of what do you think Washington?
Oh wow, Washington at five, So

193
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.519
they now don't have a PAC twelve
team in the top four. So that

194
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:13.759
means we've got we've got Georgia,
Michigan, Ohio State, and who Georgia

195
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:20.080
Michigan Ohio State. And who's the
who's the fourth one coming in? I

196
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:24.039
can't think who that would be.
Well, you said Michigan State. It's

197
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:28.279
not Oklahoma in Texas, so we'll
see the wait will be over in a

198
00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:31.279
second. Yeah, yeah, we're
gonna're still breaking news time too, so

199
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.240
yeah, we still have another minute
half Florida State. Oh yeah, yea,

200
00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:39.320
yeah, they've been out, they've
been out of your mind. Are

201
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.919
they still sucks? Do we need
to go? We'll wait a minute to

202
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:46.519
get out of here for the get
Peabody. Yeah we can. Yeah,

203
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:48.879
we can stick around for a second. So you have Florida State at three,

204
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:54.440
had four, So at three,
Georgia is gonna be number one.

205
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:56.200
So we can probably go to break
even after after we see number three,

206
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.879
because we're gonna I bet that's gonna
be Ohio State. I bet Michigan's gonna

207
00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:07.240
be a two. So we're still
waiting for them to post put that up

208
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:15.519
there. We got forty nine seconds. They're talking a lot. I can't,

209
00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:18.399
you know, I can't. I
don't know what we're doing here,

210
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.679
but you have. You got Florida
State at four, Washington and five,

211
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:28.360
Oregon at six. Michigan is at
three. So that's gonna leave Georgia and

212
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:33.480
Oklahoma at one, and I mean
Georgia and not George oklahom Georgia and Ohio

213
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.960
State at one. Yeah, that
makes that makes sense. Michigan three,

214
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.480
Florida State for Washington Oregon. So
many things should happen here. Well,

215
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:43.039
what's gonna happen? Because Michigan and
House State got to play each other,

216
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:46.639
Washington, Oregon got to play each
other, so it'll it'll flush itself out.

217
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.000
Oh, Georgia at two, So
looks like we've got a House state

218
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:54.159
obviously at number one. All right, that's it. Let's take our break.

219

298
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:30.839
hundred years. Yeah, I mean
you're like old, aren't you. But

299
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:36.839
he's not. He's just old.
I think he's younger than both of us.

300
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:40.319
I'm not sure that's Bill. You
can still be old to be younger

301
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:44.000
than both. Oh no, so, Brian, last year, we had

302
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:45.599
a very successful year. I don't
think you got where you wanted to get,

303
00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:48.759
but it was much better than the
previous year, right in terms of

304
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:56.599
players and fit and all that.
Yeah, it was. Uh we won

305
00:20:56.680 --> 00:21:00.519
twenty five games, you know,
we won our conference. Uh, it

306
00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:03.559
obviously felt game short of the national
tournament. So we obviously did not reach

307
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:07.640
our goal, which was very disappointing. You know, you're one and done

308
00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:11.880
at that point in time, and
and we just did not play well.

309
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:17.200
We've beaten that team two weeks earlier
by sixteen points and just laid an egg

310
00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:22.319
in the conference championship. So this
my reason pressing the question, how about

311
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:26.960
this year in the transition year of
feeling that pain and then getting ready for

312
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:30.319
this year well, it just it
just made me work that much harder.

313
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:36.000
Uh and and my staff you know, recruiting and just recruiting the right type

314
00:21:36.039 --> 00:21:38.839
of kid. And and this is
the best you know, just like right

315
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:42.480
now on paper. And obviously it's
way way early, but this is my

316
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:47.920
best team that I've had in a
long long time, just blue collar.

317
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:53.960
We've already got uh one kid that's
already committed uh to a Division one school,

318
00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:59.279
and I've already had three three guys
get offered scholarships. And I think

319
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:03.319
that's the first time I career that
I've had four kids offered scholarships before the

320
00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:07.400
regular season has even started. So
I'm really excited about, you know,

321
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:11.279
what's going to happen. So what
are the what are the challenges with you

322
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:15.119
know, sort of the quick turnover
as compared to a four year school.

323
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:18.160
You're turning guys over, you know, every couple of years. What are

324
00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:21.240
the challenges with that in terms of
trying to be able to trying to find

325
00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:22.599
the right fit for guys, you
know, guys who you know, they're

326
00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:26.039
only coming here for a couple of
years, but we need we need to

327
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:30.319
know right away that they're what we're
looking for. How tough is that,

328
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:34.799
you know, I think I think
it's probably a good fit both ways.

329
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:38.759
I think guys are probably tired of
me after a year or two years,

330
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:41.839
and I'm tired of them after a
year or two. So it's probably probably

331
00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:45.720
in the right spot where I should
be. We're supposed to some of the

332
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:48.599
four year schools. I've got to
get for four years. But you know

333
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:51.400
that being said, you know,
it's funny with all the D one guys

334
00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:53.839
talking about, you know, not
liking the new changes and all the rules

335
00:22:53.880 --> 00:22:56.680
and stuff, and it's like we've
been doing that for one hundred years,

336
00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:00.160
you know. So it's just welcome
to our world. So your wife must

337
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:10.559
be the MVP if she's lasted this
month, no question. He's the ASI

338
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:17.359
white player all the above. We
just celebrated our twenty fourth anniversary and I

339
00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:21.680
brought up all at six grooms men, and I think that they placed a

340
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:23.920
side that I think the longest that
anybody had it buried was a year and

341
00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:29.839
a half or knowing like that,
and they were measuring months and weeks and

342
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:33.880
a player can be named later.
So we've we've had a couple of coaches,

343
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:38.039
a few of the coaches I asked
this question because of the transfer portal

344
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:41.599
and all that in the Division IE
level basketball football, and we all know

345
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:47.200
all about it, How has it
affected you basketball wise, because now everyone's

346
00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:51.599
exchanging people at the top level when
the JC guys are still hoping to find

347
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:56.400
a spot. Yeah, it really, It hasn't changed the way that we

348
00:23:56.480 --> 00:23:59.319
recruit or anything like that. Every
once in a while, like I got

349
00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:02.720
a D two comeback kid, you
know, but we don't get a lot

350
00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:06.799
of those guys. I mean,
we've been successful by taking a kid that's

351
00:24:06.960 --> 00:24:11.559
under recruited and turning them into a
Division one or Division two players. So

352
00:24:11.559 --> 00:24:14.960
I'm I'm I'm on the other end
of the spectrum. I'm not taking guys

353
00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:18.000
that have already played at that level. Very not, very often do I

354
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:21.200
get those guys. So we're you
know, we're all about blue collar hard

355
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:25.519
work and trying to get a guy
to the next level that you know,

356
00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:27.400
kind of playing with a chip on
his shoulder and feel like he got slighted,

357
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:30.160
you know, because of you know, the whole portal and people not

358
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:33.359
recruiting you know, high school kids
a whole lot anymore. So we're we're

359
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:37.319
on the other end and I much
rather enjoy that. Yeah, maybe I

360
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:41.640
explained it wrong, but but you
have kids who are probably capable of playing

361
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.880
the D one level but now have
nowhere to go because everyone's exchanging at that

362
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:51.519
level. Yeah, it's it's affected
high school and junior college because the first

363
00:24:51.519 --> 00:24:55.200
place they go is the portal.
You're correct, they're going to the portal,

364
00:24:55.599 --> 00:24:57.599
and it's you know, it's affected
junior college. But you know,

365
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:02.519
last year I had three sophomores.
All three of them got scholarships this year,

366
00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:04.200
like I said, you know,
I've already got one guy that's going

367
00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:07.880
to sign November ninth, Division one, and I've got three guys that have

368
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:11.880
been offered Division two. So there's
you know, they're still alve You're good,

369
00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:15.000
They're gonna find you. And we
really decided to help our guys get

370
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.480
re recruited and send f them out
and invite coaches over. And we just

371
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.920
had New Mexico Highlands in our gym
on Monday who played U of A that

372
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:26.720
their whole staff came over and watched
this practice. And then Morgan State's coming

373
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:30.720
next Monday, and so we're just
out there really marketing our guys and trying

374
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:33.400
to help them get to the next
level. So when you said a minute

375
00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:37.079
ago that you feel like this could
be one of your best teams that you've

376
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:38.599
had in a in a long time, why, you know, why do

377
00:25:38.599 --> 00:25:44.119
you say what's what do you see
that you would say that it's it's a

378
00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:47.599
Peabody team. I mean, I'm
all about you know, sharing the ball

379
00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:51.759
and how hard you play. And
this is like the first group if they're

380
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:55.000
like that I've had in a while. Like to me that a group like

381
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.920
this one comes around every five to
ten years. And you know, if

382
00:25:57.920 --> 00:26:02.000
there's a loose ball on the floor, or I have five guys on the

383
00:26:02.039 --> 00:26:04.920
floor and that doesn't happen very often, and or you know, we've got

384
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:11.759
had numerous possessions and the force scrimmages
that we've played where the ball never hit

385
00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:15.880
the floor, like they're they're willing
to you know, extra pass and and

386
00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:21.319
and be played really unselfish and and
that's just how we've modeled our whole success

387
00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:23.240
a team of college is just you
know, being unselfish and playing hard,

388
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:27.000
play hard, play together. So
I was gonna ask Tommy this last night,

389
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:29.799
and I don't know if you saw
their game at all, but I'm

390
00:26:29.799 --> 00:26:32.960
sure you experienced this a time or
two. You guys play fast, You've

391
00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:36.839
always played fast. I don't think
you've ever played so. So when you

392
00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:40.400
teach that to guys who want to
play that way, is it difficult to

393
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:44.319
keep them restrained from having so many
turnovers because there's a lot of possessions.

394
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:47.799
You're playing fast, fast and loose, and that happens, right, I

395
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:52.920
would assume that it does. I
get I get a lot of calls from

396
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.000
coaches and stuff, and he just
pick picking my brain about playing fast,

397
00:26:56.039 --> 00:26:59.640
and I said, the first thing
I always say is you have to be

398
00:26:59.680 --> 00:27:03.720
able to to remain composed when they
turn the ball over. Like you know,

399
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:07.400
I've seen guys say hey, I
want to play fast, and then

400
00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:10.720
the first turnover they're like, hey
slow down, slow down. You can't

401
00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:14.079
do that. You know, just
you know, you're all in and you're

402
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:17.880
gonna you're gonna get like I think
we probably, by the way we play,

403
00:27:18.240 --> 00:27:21.960
get maybe fifteen to eighteen more possessions
per game, you know, per

404
00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:25.200
game, So based on that,
you're gonna have you know, five to

405
00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:27.880
six that more turnovers because you're getting
more possessions. So you've got to be

406
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:32.640
able to you know, whether the
storm when they when they throw the ball

407
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:40.640
away was one of those colors Shawn
Miller, who no comment on that,

408
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.559
but you know what I'm saying,
I know what you're saying. Well,

409
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:49.240
you mentioned you got four guys already
that look like they're gonna, uh,

410
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:52.720
you know, move on to the
next level. To us a little bit

411
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:56.319
about those guys. Starting with the
division ie guys, Well, the first

412
00:27:56.400 --> 00:27:57.759
kid is you know, I'm really
happy to say this as a local kid,

413
00:27:57.839 --> 00:28:03.680
Dylan Baker from South Point. Uh. He was he was you know,

414
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:07.240
he had he probably had fifteen Division
two offers last year, and I

415
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:11.359
knew he was a Division one player. He was just getting under recruited and

416
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:14.960
he'd be the right fit. And
he really improved really a ton over the

417
00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:18.279
summer, worked really hard on his
game, and uh, the NAU coaches

418
00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:23.319
came down, uh for to watch
this practice and they they offered him on

419
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:27.079
the spot. So you know,
he committed to ANAU and the Big Sky,

420
00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:30.279
and we're really excited about that.
Timmy Lloyd's kid actually plays for any

421
00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:34.279
of you, for Shane Burkhart,
and it's a you know, in state

422
00:28:34.319 --> 00:28:37.119
school and in the Big Sky.
So I'm really excited about that. So

423
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:41.079
he was the first one off the
board. And then it's funny after they

424
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.960
offered him that he got like three
more offers after NAU came in and did

425
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:52.079
their homework and due diligence and stuff. And then I've got uh two pos

426
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:56.759
actually three post kids that all have
Division two offers. I think two of

427
00:28:56.799 --> 00:29:02.359
them might get a Division one offer. Uh maybe later on in the season

428
00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:03.920
if they, uh, you know, have a really good year. But

429
00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:10.160
a kid from uh Ga, Gabe
Oldham is from Utah is a big uh

430
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:12.599
six to nine the morning kid went
on his mission, you know, a

431
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:18.119
couple of years older. He's really
really good, tough, good Uh Tanner

432
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:22.240
or Jalen Alexander who played for him
last year, started every game. He's

433
00:29:22.279 --> 00:29:26.279
got a bunch of D two offers
an interest. And then Tanner Parshey from

434
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:33.160
Phoenix has an offer from Western New
Mexico. So I'm really excited about it

435
00:29:33.160 --> 00:29:36.559
because I don't think that's ever happened
to me in my career where we've had

436
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:40.599
you know, that many offers so
early, which means of course that you're

437
00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:42.240
going to be a better coach this
year if you have better talent. I

438
00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:47.000
mean, it's that's kind of a
funny joke, but true, right,

439
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.519
All they know is it's a lot
more fun like when I and I'm not

440
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:55.079
kidding, there's a loose ball on
the floor. There's five guys on the

441
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:56.680
floor. It makes me look like
a really you know, a really good

442
00:29:56.720 --> 00:29:59.599
coach, and I have nothing to
do with it. You know, there's

443
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:04.200
don't just the way they played.
Don't tell anybody, and we'll keep your

444
00:30:04.200 --> 00:30:07.039
secret. Make sure everybody in town's
already figure that out. But I can't

445
00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:11.400
coach. I don't need to try
to fool anybody, all right, So

446
00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:12.680
I know, I don't know how
much you can tell. But what what

447
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:15.079
does the league look like? As
you said, you won the league last

448
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:18.599
year and then you know, didn't
quite get to where you wanted to get

449
00:30:18.599 --> 00:30:22.119
to. But you know, where
where do you where do you see trouble

450
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:26.559
on the route? It's it's it's
a long story. But we have an

451
00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:30.519
unbalanced schedule this year, which before
everything was equal to and two. Now

452
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:33.799
the D ones were only playing one
time, and then the D twos were

453
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:37.839
playing three times. It ushould be
two and two. So I don't like

454
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:40.480
the schedule that way. I want
to play, you know, D two,

455
00:30:40.599 --> 00:30:44.960
so I scheduled the hardest people that
I could schedule outside of our regular

456
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.559
season, like we've already played.
We played Park University in an exhibition game

457
00:30:48.839 --> 00:30:52.039
and they're any high school out of
Phoenix. We beat them by thirty.

458
00:30:52.839 --> 00:31:00.400
We played Arizona Christian University, any
high school in Phoenix, and they'renumber three

459
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:03.160
in the country. Uh, pre
season, Paul, we've lost by two.

460
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:10.599
And then just trying to prepare for
our league, we played Arizona Western,

461
00:31:10.640 --> 00:31:12.839
which is a D one school in
our conference in the jambou Jamboree.

462
00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:18.079
We won by thirty six. So
we're we're playing. We're putting points up.

463
00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:22.200
You know, we can really score
the ball. And I really like

464
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:26.720
my team. I haven't seen everybody, you know on the D two side.

465
00:31:26.759 --> 00:31:32.240
I think Chandler Gilbert is going to
be good, and I think Mace

466
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:36.599
is gonna be good. Yeah,
okay, okay, well, Obrien,

467
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:40.799
thanks a bunch for joining us.
As always, Good luck, Hope,

468
00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:44.799
hopefully I appreciate it. Good luck
and I'm glad. I'm glad we're on

469

480
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:34.359

481
00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:39.119

That's why. That's not the spirit of

484
00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:52.759
souls there. Did you ever have
to cover anything with that? No?

485
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:53.640
I did. I didn't go in
to simmer I had to go down to

486
00:32:53.680 --> 00:32:57.880
the Gallus and just go hang out
in the cemetery for a day. How

487
00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:00.119
did that? I didn't. I
didn't like that's where you ko D started.

488
00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:05.400
I might have gotten cursed at that. You might have gotten thirty years

489
00:33:05.400 --> 00:33:07.960
ago. That makes Does it make
sense now? Yeah? It does make

490
00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:10.119
sense. That's why are zone hasn't
gone to a rose. Yeah, that

491
00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:14.400
was going to blame that well coincides
with kind of a no. But I

492
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:15.960
was over there doing nice things a
minute talk to these people, and you

493
00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:21.960

final segment here. All right,
before we get to you explaining your Halloween

559
00:38:12.440 --> 00:38:16.199
distaste, which you're gonna explain,
Okay, that all the debate is on

560
00:38:16.559 --> 00:38:22.239
the over the college football playoff rankings
and people already saying that the PAC twelve

561
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:25.639
is getting crapped on because in the
top six, the only team in there

562
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:30.400
to beat a top six team is
Washington, Yet they're not among the top

563
00:38:30.440 --> 00:38:34.760
four, among the top Okay,
okay, you watch a lot of college

564
00:38:34.760 --> 00:38:38.480
football? Yeahh for whatever that means, do they deserve to be in the

565
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:42.480
top four. I'm pretty sure I
would have put them ahead of Florida State.

566
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:47.119
But have you seen Florida State enough? You've seen Washington. But I'm

567
00:38:47.159 --> 00:38:52.480
talking about resumes and stuff. Who's
Florida State beating any better than Washington shoe?

568
00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:55.280
I don't know. I don't know, I don't know. It's debatable,

569
00:38:55.320 --> 00:38:59.079
but it's look the start, this
is the first, and this is

570
00:38:59.280 --> 00:39:02.840
but it's the it's already the raging
debate that all season long, everybody's talking

571
00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:07.039
about how the PAC twelve is the
best league in the country, you know,

572
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:09.800
by kind of hands down, Yet
the two best teams in the league,

573
00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:13.119
neither one of them is in the
top totally get it, But that's

574
00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:15.599
understandable. But I think though,
I think though, and I could be

575
00:39:15.599 --> 00:39:19.480
totally wrong. The more eyes have
been on the PAC twelve than anytime in

576
00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:22.079
the last ten years, right,
right, so they're seeing they're seeing the

577
00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:23.760
team. Just look, they have
four or five in the top twenty twenty

578
00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:29.079
twentyeve. They had four teams from
eleven day eleven to sixteen. So that

579
00:39:29.119 --> 00:39:31.599
doesn't happen. Yeah, especially now
when they're getting beat Oregon State, for

580
00:39:31.639 --> 00:39:35.880
God's sake, is still there?
Yeah after just getting me by a results,

581
00:39:35.880 --> 00:39:37.960
well the highest of the four.
Right, does that make sense?

582
00:39:38.800 --> 00:39:43.280
No? It you trying to make
sense? I know, I know,

583
00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:45.760
but I don't disagree with you.
Washington has been they've been good, but

584
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:50.400
they haven't been good lately. And
and and they've got games left, right,

585
00:39:50.519 --> 00:39:52.599
They've got usc coming up this weekend. Jay, they still got to

586
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:57.119
play. They still got to play
Oregon State. Here's your problem. They

587
00:39:57.119 --> 00:40:00.639
can't stumble. If they stumble,
right, they're done, right they Yeah,

588
00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:06.840
Washington and Oregon have both got to
get to the PAC twelve Championship game

589
00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:10.039
with with no more loss. I
think Washington's got to get there undefeated and

590
00:40:10.159 --> 00:40:13.719
Oregon has to get there with one
loss. The one loss that they have.

591
00:40:13.920 --> 00:40:16.840
They are the kid, your child
who who if he screws up,

592
00:40:16.840 --> 00:40:20.440
he's in trouble. Yeah. The
other kids, Oh yeah, they can

593
00:40:20.440 --> 00:40:23.440
play with the scissors, this one
they can't screw up. You're one hundred

594
00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:29.360
percent correct on that, correct.
So anyway, just just pointing out the

595
00:40:29.400 --> 00:40:31.039
debate that's raging out there already.
Mike de Corsi was the first one,

596
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:35.480
you know who's been on the show's
come out and say yeah, and he's

597
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:38.360
him and Dennis Dodgs and all those
guys their sensible and and they know the

598
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:40.360
West well. And again, as
I mentioned, you know before we went

599
00:40:40.360 --> 00:40:44.320
to the break, those teams,
bunch teams that they have to play each

600
00:40:44.360 --> 00:40:49.280
other. Ohio State, Michigan have
to play Washington. I mean, uh

601
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:52.239
uh you know Washington stills got to
play usc You know, Florida State can

602
00:40:52.280 --> 00:40:57.599
lose some games. Uh you know, Georgia will probably it's got is gonna

603
00:40:57.599 --> 00:41:00.360
have to it's it, it'll flush
out, I know. But it's kind

604
00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:04.039
of like same old stuff, really, the same old stuff, all right.

605
00:41:04.119 --> 00:41:14.039
Okay, Now I want to know
what happened in your childhood that hate.

606
00:41:14.239 --> 00:41:15.159
Well, so I grew up in
Santa Fe, New Mexico, a

607
00:41:15.159 --> 00:41:20.480
little small small town community, uh, in a neighborhood, lights and kids,

608
00:41:20.480 --> 00:41:23.400
and we did that remember back in
your time to remember back in the

609
00:41:23.719 --> 00:41:28.079
scare with the apples and the and
the and then I'm sure they still have

610
00:41:28.119 --> 00:41:31.000
that. I don't know if they
still were not right. So there was

611
00:41:31.039 --> 00:41:35.320
that, and then you went.
You walked, I mean we walked.

612
00:41:35.360 --> 00:41:38.599
It was it was it was to
me, it was just silly because my

613
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:42.000
parents could have just gotten me some
candy. If that's what the end of

614
00:41:42.039 --> 00:41:45.440
the result was. You know,
he's not the end result. It wasn't

615
00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:49.519
about the end result. It was
about getting to the end. No,

616
00:41:49.519 --> 00:41:53.519
no, no, I I went
to the middleman baby just yeah, pretty

617
00:41:53.559 --> 00:41:57.440
much pretty much. And I was
always been kind of like a guy who's

618
00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:00.000
not really a kid, an older
guy. No, I just didn't.

619
00:42:00.079 --> 00:42:04.920
I didn't like getting dressed up too. Did you dress up? Very rare?

620
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:07.719
Because I thought it was silly,
even when I had a girlfriend's here

621
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:10.360
and they want to dress up.
No, not really. Wow, all

622
00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:13.679
right, let's take this call.
How are you're on the ar and I

623
00:42:13.760 --> 00:42:16.400
on the ball. This is Nico, Nico, man, you get dressed

624
00:42:16.440 --> 00:42:21.679
up for Halloween tonight? I am
because I'm going to a party. But

625
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:25.199
I've an't giving out candy. I'm
never doing that again. Tell me why

626
00:42:25.400 --> 00:42:30.599
the reason why I gave out candy
last year, right, And I was

627
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:35.360
sitting on the bed of the truck. I was drinking some beer free gaming

628
00:42:35.440 --> 00:42:38.559
for the party. And I had
this girl that I was seeing at the

629
00:42:38.599 --> 00:42:44.679
time dressed up. She looked good, and I had some parents tell me

630
00:42:44.760 --> 00:42:50.719
this is inappropriate. Well, what
what was she wearing? She was a

631
00:42:50.760 --> 00:42:55.320
prisoner because I was a cowboy or
share for something on there. Don't get

632
00:42:55.400 --> 00:43:00.079
wrong with that. Doesn't sound like
anything wrong with that. I mean there

633
00:43:00.199 --> 00:43:05.639
was something wrong with it. I'm
doing them a favor. Hey, little

634
00:43:05.719 --> 00:43:10.199
Johnny, let's skip this up.
You were blazing up, were you?

635
00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:15.920
Yes? But I was giving out
candy. Man, It's like, oh

636
00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:21.639
jeez, I could have the light
off. But I'm doing them a favor.

637
00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:22.920
The reason why, right, what
do you what are you dressing up

638
00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:30.760
as tonight as a person from Duran
Duran? Oh, Timon Lebon or one

639
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:36.000
of those guys. I got this
little like cone hat. I don't know.

640
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:38.159
I didn't pick it up. It
doesn't matter, but I I know

641
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:45.320
why Steve curs in trouble. Yeah
you mean whatever? Yeah? Yeah,

642
00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:49.599
all right, what do you do? You gotta tell your guy at the

643
00:43:49.599 --> 00:43:57.559
car shot to cool it? Oh? Oh man, he had him there

644
00:43:57.559 --> 00:44:00.320
for a signing, so oh by, if he didn't get paid for that,

645
00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:06.960
then it's not a big deal.
I think you got paid all right,

646
00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:15.599
all right, all wrong, all
right, all wrong, Nico's all

647
00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:22.000
wrong. Get getting the candy is
the is the deal? No, I

648
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:25.000
am. I you can understand my
point, right, I understand both.

649
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:28.199
I do understand both sides of it. I was more of the kid that

650
00:44:28.280 --> 00:44:30.440
didn't really like dressing up. That's
me costume I was going to probably wear

651
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:36.199
once and they either outgrow or not
once. You're more like me than when

652
00:44:36.320 --> 00:44:39.800
was the last time you dressed up
for Halloween? Either for actual Halloween or

653
00:44:40.119 --> 00:44:45.079
party? I was murdered at the
time. Maybe fifteen forty years ago,

654
00:44:45.159 --> 00:44:50.280
fifteen years ago, fifteen years ago, sixteen years ago, and it was

655
00:44:50.280 --> 00:44:52.920
a party at the house. And
what did you dressed? I dressed up

656
00:44:52.920 --> 00:45:00.360
as Punjabia? Really yeah, okay, I don't know. Unpopular, I

657
00:45:00.760 --> 00:45:05.280
don't know what to say about see
and then now my car that's not even

658
00:45:05.400 --> 00:45:07.360
even a great costume. I do
it, and then my costume gets criticized,

659
00:45:07.360 --> 00:45:12.840
So what do their you are?
He would participate, You'd be like,

660
00:45:12.840 --> 00:45:15.400
well, you know, you like
the guys I talked to you.

661
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:16.679
You you want my answer, but
I give you my answers. You don't

662
00:45:16.719 --> 00:45:20.559
like my answers. All right,
you're okay. I'm sorry. I didn't

663
00:45:20.559 --> 00:45:22.880
mean to do that. Did you
take your kids trick or feeding? My

664
00:45:23.039 --> 00:45:25.679
I did maybe once, my wife
did. My then wife did it a

665
00:45:25.719 --> 00:45:29.679
lot. Yeah, Well it was
more because we lived in a neighborhood where

666
00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:32.639
there's a few houses, so they
went to the Foothills Mall and the stores

667
00:45:34.000 --> 00:45:37.920
things like that. So yes,
you did. I went a couple of

668
00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:43.159
times. I just don't feel comfortable
asking people for candy. I mean,

669
00:45:43.239 --> 00:45:47.159
I think Halloween ironically has become more
fun for me as I get older.

670
00:45:47.360 --> 00:45:51.800
Sure, just because of the Halloween
party aspect, A call got the call.

671
00:45:52.800 --> 00:46:00.360
Let's take that you're on the on
the ball. But I wanted Steve

672
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:07.880
to know that I absolutely loved dressing
up for Halloween. What was fun?

673
00:46:08.519 --> 00:46:13.800
What's your all time favorite costume that
you dressed up? As you know,

674
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:16.320
I don't remember him as a kid, but I remember going to a party

675
00:46:17.800 --> 00:46:22.199
and it was the theme was the
Letterman, you know, so we wore

676
00:46:22.239 --> 00:46:29.280
our own letterman clothes and stuff like
that, and I had the most fun

677
00:46:29.320 --> 00:46:34.199
I've ever had at a party,
just dancing to you know, uh,

678
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:38.280
seventies and eighties music. So you
didn't go trick or treating you were at

679
00:46:38.280 --> 00:46:40.639
a party, That's just what did
you trick or treat as a kid?

680
00:46:43.239 --> 00:46:52.960
I went tricker three when I got
home. Okay, home alone alone,

681
00:46:54.039 --> 00:46:58.199
I hear, I hear what you're
saying. Okay, we very okay,

682
00:46:59.079 --> 00:47:02.280
all this business. I didn't waiting
for this to play out this week.

683
00:47:02.760 --> 00:47:08.480
Okay, So Arizona is a no
show in the ratings right right? How

684
00:47:08.840 --> 00:47:12.320
stock do you think they're going to
be when they play uc ol A?

685
00:47:12.519 --> 00:47:15.239
They don't care. I don't think
this just doesn't register. I don't know.

686
00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:17.199
I think it might. I think
they might feel I think I feel

687
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:21.679
like they should be. What the
what are you playing for? If you

688
00:47:21.719 --> 00:47:24.400
don't play for the recognition? I
think I know, But I think that

689
00:47:24.559 --> 00:47:27.960
I think it'll get used, like
okay, let's go out there, and

690
00:47:28.440 --> 00:47:30.280
I think it'll get used. I
do, Yeah, I think I think

691
00:47:32.239 --> 00:47:35.920
to play these guys, I guess
I ask him, ask him. I

692
00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:37.119
bet he doesn't say so to our
face. He's gonna say, oh,

693
00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:40.559
you know, we don't pay attention
in the locker room. They're probably saying

694
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:46.000
something else. Right, Well,
Jay, you remember with our little league

695
00:47:46.039 --> 00:47:50.400
games, for God's sake, how
pumped up? Where of those little kids

696
00:47:51.079 --> 00:47:57.320
when I ask them who they want
three times right there is who are we?

697
00:47:57.559 --> 00:48:00.920
Who are we? And they just
do not? Yeah, no they

698
00:48:00.039 --> 00:48:05.079
Yeah, they weren't athletes. Listen
to that stuff. They do are the

699
00:48:05.119 --> 00:48:08.880
astros? Man? Yeah we were, well we were called other things,

700
00:48:08.960 --> 00:48:15.679
you know. Yeah, yeah we
were. Yeah, we were. Okaycat'd

701
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:19.559
that you had a chance to be
going as a trick or treater. All

702
00:48:19.639 --> 00:48:22.400
right, Jah, thanks about that. I think Ucan is going to be

703
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:28.559
all that can handle because of the
defense. That defense is gonna be tough.

704
00:48:28.639 --> 00:48:30.480
I watched them play the other day. Man, they're tough, they

705
00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:37.320
are. That should be a really
fun game. Yeah, I would.

706
00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:43.440
I'm gonna make a controversial statement.
I think Delora is a better fit to

707
00:48:43.519 --> 00:48:49.400
start this game than the other kid. I'm just saying, I bet,

708
00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:52.800
I bet there's a fifty percent chances
in the game in the second half.

709
00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:57.239
Interesting. Okay, we'll hold you
to that next week. Yeah, all

710
00:48:57.320 --> 00:49:02.239
right, Jeff, thanks, all
right, Okay, that's interesting. Well,

711
00:49:02.320 --> 00:49:06.360
you know, I mean there's gonna
be the toughest defense they played all

712
00:49:06.480 --> 00:49:07.880
year long. And and you see
me, it may there is a chance,

713
00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:14.079
you say it me figure some things
out to cause uh no, to

714
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:17.760
some trouble. But we'll see.
But you know, he's he's certainly shown

715
00:49:19.960 --> 00:49:23.199
that he can stand pretty much anything. People on people online were comparing him

716
00:49:23.239 --> 00:49:29.280
to Khalil Tate in terms of mister
mister October thing. Oh that stuff.

717
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:31.400
It was just it was just an
interesting little conversation that was happening. I

718
00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:36.280
think it was four and oh and
a bunch of pass Yeah. Yeah,

719
00:49:36.920 --> 00:49:40.960
two completely different things. It's two
very very different things. Uh. I

720
00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:45.239
mean, I get you know,
what what clil Tate did was, you

721
00:49:45.239 --> 00:49:52.239
know, just doesn't happen. Nor
fat is more of the for the duration.

722
00:49:52.159 --> 00:49:57.519
Right, It wasn't just you know, a flash for four games or

723
00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:01.039
whatever. People figured out a little
hey, so, uh no, Fafida

724
00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:05.239
looks like, you know, he
can he can keep doing this and keep

725
00:50:05.280 --> 00:50:08.119
getting better and better and better every
week. So that that's that's sort of

726
00:50:08.159 --> 00:50:12.960
a big difference, uh right now. So anyways, all right, okay,

727
00:50:13.039 --> 00:50:16.679
interesting stuff. Well, Steve,
you know I've been giving you a

728
00:50:16.679 --> 00:50:21.320
crap about your Halloween no, I
get it. I get it. You're

729
00:50:21.360 --> 00:50:28.639
you're you're a happy, go lucky
diabetic. You know. I I've had

730
00:50:28.719 --> 00:50:32.800
some Halloween candy because somebody brought some
to our tailgate party, and then then

731
00:50:32.840 --> 00:50:37.519
there was you know, we brought
it. We bought our candy yesterday.

732
00:50:37.599 --> 00:50:39.760
So sureighbor you live in neighborhood.
Yeah, but you know what, our

733
00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:43.519
neighborhoods gotten old. There's really not
a lot of trick or cheers, okay,

734
00:50:43.559 --> 00:50:45.639
but they're enough that we have to
have some. Sure, maybe fifteen

735
00:50:45.719 --> 00:50:49.639
whatever if that see that, you
know what I'm saying, it's diminished a

736
00:50:49.639 --> 00:50:52.760
little. And you'll bring it in
here. I'm sure that your grandson's gonna

737
00:50:52.800 --> 00:50:55.559
go out. Yeah. Yeah,
well we're all going out with and I'm

738
00:50:55.559 --> 00:51:00.679
gonna be like six adults and a
baby going trick er chief. Are you

739
00:51:00.679 --> 00:51:05.840
going to dress up? No?
Why not? Because I didn't go get

740
00:51:05.840 --> 00:51:10.320
a costume. You Dodgers dressed up
as a Tata. We get a kid.

741
00:51:12.760 --> 00:51:15.519
That's who I am. Man,
That that's my that's my persona now

742
00:51:15.679 --> 00:51:19.559
and when I when I'm at home, I'm the big fat, old grunky

743
00:51:19.679 --> 00:51:22.559
data man. I had the kid
today. Man, he was working me

744
00:51:22.639 --> 00:51:24.280
hard. That's why you're tired.
I'm really tired. That's why you're tired.

745
00:51:24.320 --> 00:51:28.559
At home from a meeting and immediately
was on kid duty. I just

746
00:51:28.639 --> 00:51:30.679
chased him around the house all morning. All Right, that's it. We're

747
00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:32.719
gonna take our break and not take
a break. We're gonna get the heck

748
00:51:32.760 --> 00:51:37.360
out of here. Everybody have a
great, safe Halloween, right, and

749
00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:39.119
we'll be back tomorrow. There'll be
kind of stuff going on. I think

750
00:51:39.119 --> 00:51:43.760
the Big Twelve schedule football schedule for
next season gets released, so we'll probably

751
00:51:43.760 --> 00:51:51.599
have some conversation about that. So
we'll see you tomorrow.
