Love transfer he has UM Arizona amongst
one of his UM teams that schools that

26
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:56.719

many teams does he have on his list?

27
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:59.640
Um? I think Texas, Arizona, Gonzaga three. I think it's

28
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:04.519
three's gonna get in all right?
Well, he's the kid that got in

29
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:07.760
Fest for Portland, North Carolina.
Everybody was surprised because he was a starter.

30
00:02:07.039 --> 00:02:10.479
Ye had he had a committed to
Michigan right then, couldn't get in?

31
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:14.080
Hi, miss you couldn't get in
right. So um, so he's

32
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:17.719
back in the portal and Sun.
He's got Arizona, Gonzaga and who Texas

33
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:21.879
Tea. So we'll see how that
see how that works out. I mean,

34
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:24.280
I don't know that that's a guy
that Arizona needs, right with the

35
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:30.039
with the guy that they just got
with, the with the Brandon or Jaden.

36
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:34.599
Uh what's the last ning from from
from Alabama? The Alabama kid?

37
00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:37.520
Yeah, I don't remember. Yeah, but yeah, No, they're gonna

38
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:39.360
be guard They're gonna be good.
I talked to a lot of people yesterday

39
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:45.240
just this because and they think,
and I agree with him, that this

40
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:49.000
team is gonna be pretty good next
year, just six weeks removed from people

41
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:52.319
saying, oh, what are you
gonna do? They're gonna be pretty good.

42
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:57.759
They're gonna be pretty good. I
don't want to do sometimes, I

43
00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:01.240
just I just want to, like
have ability to throw a mass middle finger

44
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:09.599
just just sticks up above the horizon, and everybody who knows that it's me

45
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:15.560
knows that it's for them, making
a new logo for us. We have

46
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:17.159
people cusses on the radio show.
You know, well that picture you know

47
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:22.319
we got with our arms crossed,
dude. Remember in high school teams,

48
00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:24.280
would you know people would stick their
middle finger out of that they get kicked

49
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:30.639
out of school and stuff. Couldn't
sell the book because all right, the

50
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:36.120
commanders have their trademark applications denied due
to another person already having pending applications for

51
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:39.439
the name Um Colonel one already existing. Therefore, they might have to change

52
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:44.199
their team name. Again, they
can't work out a deal. How did

53
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:47.719
they not know that when they took
the commander's name. It's a Washington team,

54
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:53.080
that's what. Speaking of George,
Washington University change its changing its mascot

55
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:59.919
from the Colonials, which apparently some
people thought that it was a sort of

56
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.520
sort of like Christopher Columbus, Right, Colonials killed a lot of Native Americans,

57
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:06.360
so it's kind of offensive to them. To the Revolutionaries, which is

58
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:11.919
just too long. How you put
that on a helmet? Eventually, guess

59
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:15.400
what they're They're gonna find out the
Revolutionaries is not a good name. Media,

60
00:04:15.839 --> 00:04:19.920
Well, people want, you know, people want um Mississippi change its

61
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:23.199
name from the rebels. Yeah,
because of the you know, well,

62
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:27.639
because they were rebelling against the United
States America. I'm surprised that the Conquistadors

63
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:30.399
have kind of lasted a while,
because I know that the back Coleman in

64
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:34.120
New Mexico and Santa Fe they're taking
down statues because of this stuff. Oh

65
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:38.759
yeah, it's a big deal because
people were offended with what they used,

66
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:44.319
what they did when sixteen coming up
through Mexico. All right, Jets worked

67
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:48.879
out X bills punch mataisa um Ian
Rappaport also reported that, um, he

68
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:55.360
doesn't expect any kind of media media
signing for Matt but this could be um

69
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.519
first of many steps that my helping
to get back in into the NFL.

70
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:01.040
Yeah. Yeah, again for our
listeners, arising was the punter who got

71
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:06.319
accused of a sexual assault. Um, the police have come out and said

72
00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:11.879
that he was not at at this
at the place when and where it happened,

73
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:14.839
and uh, you know, he
was the top. He was like

74
00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:19.839
a third or four front draft pick
up the Buffalo Bills. And as soon

75
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:24.360
as that report came out, he
got released. And now he's trying to

76
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:29.959
find a job in the NFL.
Uh And apparently what now the victim's attorney

77
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:31.800
is still going to following through with
the lawsuits, saying he was there,

78
00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:35.279
but the cops have said they have
video evidence that says he was not.

79
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:41.560
Whatever that means. Okay, Um, there has been some strong support in

80
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:45.839
Madison Square Garden to retire Carmela's Anthony
number. Um. I know Carmella played

81
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:47.519
for several different teams. You guys
feel like he should have his number retired

82
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:50.000
in New York. Um. I
also saw that he might have his number

83
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:54.839
retired in Denver as well. So
yeah, I don't know. I'm not

84
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:57.879
a fan of his. I'm not
a detractor as well. Right, I

85
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.360
don't know long career. Um,
I don't know. It doesn't go anywhere

86
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:03.040
in my radar. Right. Yeah, he doesn't move the needle for me

87
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:06.720
either, never had. But but
the heack of a player, yeah,

88
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.120
definitely for sure. Um. I
know you want to talk about the NFL.

89
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:15.079
Yeah, So, the NFL has
passed basically a similar rule to what

90
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:19.560
they have in college now, where
a receiver on a kickoff can make a

91
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:24.800
fair catch inside the twenty five and
they get the ball on the twenty five.

92
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:29.079
It's a continuing effort for the NFL
to uh, you know, trying

93
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:31.879
They say kickoffs is one of the
most dangerous plays. Uh. In the

94
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.199
game, and so they're trying to
eliminate some of that. A lot of

95
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:40.399
pushback this time because people saying that
it's even though it's tough, it's one

96
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:42.560
of the more exciting parts of the
game. You know. You think guys

97
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.680
like the chic Devin Hester, you
know, who made maybe getting it or

98
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:47.879
did he get into the Hall of
Fame, I'm not sure, but he's

99
00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:53.399
been he's been getting into the Hall
of Fame as a kick returner, and

100
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:57.000
that will kind of go away because
you know, people and you see it

101
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.199
in the you see it in the
college game. You know, we catch

102
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:01.079
about the two yard and here comes
the coverage. Okayn't take the fair catch.

103
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:04.439
We get about the twenty five at
the NFL is adopting the same rule

104
00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:10.399
that got passed, I believe today. Do you have to the kid from

105
00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:14.759
Buffalo who got hurt? Who got
hurt? Uh? Yeah, he's on

106
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:18.360
he's on the field. Yeah,
the mar hamlet yeah yeah, Yeah,

107
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:21.759
he's not gonna workout, yeah yeah, he's he's been non contact stuff,

108
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:26.560
but he's working out. Yeah.
Yeah, baby steps. His comeback has

109
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:31.920
been really markable, like what he
wants everything he died, Yeah, I

110
00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:36.399
mean he died, right, Can
you say that you just did send letters

111
00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:41.759
to Jay? No? Well I
heard, I mean he essentially died when

112
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:45.079
they brought him back to life when
a Scaresman was on TV. I'm just

113
00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:46.439
watching it. I'm like, what
the real time I got? I don't

114
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.720
think it was like real? What
was I happened? Right? So serious?

115
00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:54.360
Yeah? Um, that's all that
I have for Okay, the women's

116
00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:59.759
Tins basketball too. Uh. They
got four new coaches or no fur staff

117
00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:03.839

00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:09.439

So and then Lauren Flom is now

132
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:20.960
again, if you're if you're somebody
who's entring into the traditions. Um.

133
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.279
There's been a lot of talk that
both Georgia and Florida did not want to

134
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:31.639
play the World's Biggest Cocktail Party game
in Jacksonville because they kind of wanted to

135
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:33.759
dig. They would rather have that
as a home game every other year.

136
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:37.519
But it looks like that is going
to stay there at least for two more

137
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:43.799
years. Uh in Jacksonville, Uh, where both teams Uh, you know,

138
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:46.360
it's a neutral site game and it's
it's built. They don't I don't

139
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.120
call it the world Greatest cocktail party
anymore because they thought people got it.

140
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:56.200
Said. Cocktail implying that there's a
lot of drinking is a not a favorable

141
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.320
thing, so they call it something
else. But I grew up knowing it

142
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:03.320
as the world's biggest COCKI just because
you change the name doesn't change what you

143
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:09.559
mean what it is anymore. I'm
Antonio's about a junior welcome from They just

144
00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:13.360
call it the Cocktail Party, Now, why whatever the hell that means anyway,

145
00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:18.320
So they're going to keep playing that
in in Jacksonville. Okay. Brian

146
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.519
Brian Windhorse from YESPN just reported that
the seventy six ers have now shown an

147
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:26.440
appetite to Page James harder than Max. So he's most likely gonna go back.

148
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:28.320
You had to go back to six
ers, So he's most likely gonna

149
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:31.000
go to Houston, which is what
I've been saying. Oh yeah, yeah

150
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.879
circulating, Sure, sure, yeah, I agree with you there. Yeah

151
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:35.519
what about what about I'm sure you
heard this the Lebron could go to the

152
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.279
Golden State Warriors. Yeah, I've
heard like the Warriors, Um, because

153
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.600
he said about he might retire whatnot, and the Wars make sense, you

154
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:45.320
know, him and Curry together.
But I don't think it's gonna happen.

155
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:48.960
Lebron, you know, he has
like a sense of like dignity and pride.

156
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.639
I guess you can say that he
wouldn't want that to be part of

157
00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:54.120
his legacy, if you know whatever, which would be what do you kind

158
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:56.720
of you know, hop on gravy
train. Yeah, Curry's like, you

159
00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:01.440
know, team and everybody kind of
wants have kind of what they said about

160
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:05.080
Kevin Durant when he was like that, He's just going over there because there's

161
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.000
like I mean, I'm sure bron
wouldn't mind Curry come over there. I

162
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:11.960
don't think gonna want to do that. I'm sure like you half a dozen

163
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:13.720
one, half a dozen the other. Yeah, you know, I totally

164
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:16.519
agree with you. Yeah, but
I wouldn't be surprised if he did that,

165
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:22.399
go out on top with those guys. Yeah, I can see him

166
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:24.759
ending up because he goes out with
his son. Right, So if Ronnie

167
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:26.320
is Ronie was dropped about the Wars, I can see him going there like

168
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.840
a year like that minimum and playing
with his son. I don't see him

169
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.879
just going there just like his son. Have you seen the sun play a

170
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.320
little bit? He's not he's a
top thirty guy, but he's not in

171
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:39.759
the top ten. Is that right? Yeah? So's he's marginal at best

172
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:43.559
for one one and done right,
And that's what I have to be.

173
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:46.480
Yeah, definitely pretty much. I
mean, so you're looking at two years,

174
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.399
she'd be forty by that time.
Yeah, And we talked about this.

175
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:52.120
We have three minutes. Anyway,
we talked about this before Game four

176
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:56.639
that you guys said he looked old, and I was kind of saying,

177
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:58.879
well, you know, that was
one of those games. He didn't look

178
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.360
old in Game four until then.
Jay says he looked good at you.

179
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:03.679
They just didn't go to him.
Yeah. Yeah, for whatever reason,

180
00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:07.720
he's he's still one of them.
He's still tough. Yeah, did you

181
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:11.200
say I did you see yesterday or
last this morning? He said I'm still

182
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:16.519
better than Yeah, it's probably right
I say that. I mean if before

183
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:18.960
he got his actual foot injury,
he was playing he was actually thirty points

184
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.919
like he was playing, you know, he was making like highlight reels every

185
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:24.200
game, like he was playing like
at the top of his games. Still,

186
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:28.639
I guess. But yes, yes, Lord down because of his age

187
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.799
and some of the injury issues whatnot. But yeah, he's still better than

188
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:33.919
multiple league. You know. Now, if I need a basket, if

189
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.840
I need a basket, I'm going
to Curry. I'll probably go to Lebron

190
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:45.159
two or three, But I don't
want him shooting anywhere beyond five feet on

191
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:48.080
someone. Yeah, go downhill and
go be the train man the train Yeah,

192
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:52.960
definitely, because it's either gonna he's
gonna get a foul, get the

193
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:56.240
shot or whatever. Yeah, right, play honestly, right, Yeah,

194
00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:01.360
okay, real quick, here's here's
a Jacob preseason All American and Athlant sports

195
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.399
magazine that came that came across.
And then some sad news for those of

196
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:09.480
us who go around for a while. Yeah, Tina Turner passed away today.

197
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:15.799
Yeah. I was a bit surprised, you don't know. I gotta

198
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:20.559
get those headphones off to go to
Spotify. Tina Turner look her up.

199
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:24.919
There's about She had an incredible create
at one point, was like the like

200
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:30.559
the queen of like like she was
Taylor Swift before Taylor Swift a long time

201
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.360
ago. But yeah, but back
in the night ye wow, wow,

202
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.200
Yeah I was. I actually in
the late eighties and nineties, I saw

203
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:41.480
her at the Arena on her come
back after the whole thing with with her

204
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:45.679
husband a long time. She was
making her way back. She opened for

205
00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:50.440
Lionel Ritchie at at the Two Sun
Arena nineteen eighty three and I saw her

206
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:54.399
there and didn't really know where she
was going, but man, she put

207
00:13:54.440 --> 00:14:00.919
on a show. How old is
she was? She three eighty something?

208
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:05.759
Yeah, no, but she was. And then she went huge. She

209
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.360
she was one of those She was
one of those artists that went huge because

210
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:11.960
of the video, the video age. She was, you know, making

211
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:16.879
videos. And then there was a
movie about her about her her husband thing

212
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:22.840
with Hell is his name? I
turn Um? Wow, I was a

213
00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:28.879
bit surprised. We've talked a lot
about these iconic uh actresses and actress last

214
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:33.559
right right, um? And so
yeah, so Tina Turner passed away.

215
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:37.960
And also before you get out of
here, Sheldon Reynolds a guitarist guitar player

216
00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:43.080

the early nineties on. Um actually got

217
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.559
my my son and my family got
our picture with him when they we had

218
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:50.879
we had a backstage passed to one
of their concerts. Uh here and he's

219
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:54.360
wearing the picture with him and he
passed away today. He's in his sixties.

220
00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:58.080
I think he died. I think
there's a picture of him that looked

221
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:01.440
like he had cancer something. He
had some some disease that killed him.

222
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:03.919

the phone. We have job Whitaker, big game Boomer. How are you

271
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:47.960
doing job? Thanks for having me
on. Yes John, John, we

272
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:51.880
had your stuff on yesterday and we're
thinking where are you getting this stuff?

273
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:55.559
We wonder where you get this stuff. We needed to talk to you specifically

274
00:18:55.559 --> 00:19:00.920
about the Arizona fans because you put
on yesterday the list of the most sensitive

275
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:06.319
fans and least sensitive fans, and
Arizona was we felt was on the wrong

276
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:10.200
side of that graphic. They need
to be on the most sensitive fans because

277
00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:12.880
they're basketball fans lose their mind.
So give us that, give us the

278
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:17.759
thought process on who who were the
least sensitive fans and who are the most

279
00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:22.759
sensitive fans. Yeah. I guess
when you when you wrote basketball into it,

280
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.039
I could definitely see Arizona being on
the sensitive side. I mean,

281
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:30.000
gosh, you guys lost to a
fifteen seed, but this year. Yes,

282
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.720
yeah, And I mean so I
could see where you guys are coming

283
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:41.319
from. I'm just looking at it
on like a national perspective, you know,

284
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:48.240
where I don't see Arizona fans in
an uproar about college football. Okay,

285
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:51.119
that makes sense, that you're right, and yeah, and what we

286
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:56.440
were saying about that was that but
that the basketball fans more than offset sort

287
00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:03.000
of the nonsense, pensitive approach of
the of the football fans, the football

288
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.559
faners kind of we're just used to
being losers, right, So you're just

289
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:11.640
okay with it exactly. That's a
very good That's a much better way to

290
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:17.119
put it than the way I just
put it. Yeah. So so where

291
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:18.640
do you come up? We've talked
about this before. Where do you come

292
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:23.599
up with this stuff? And and
did you compile that list specifically? Yeah?

293
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:27.519
No, I put together every list
myself. I mean it's just me.

294
00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:33.960
Um, I am big game.
You know, I don't know that

295
00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:37.519
I would want to see, like
what the inside of your brain looks like.

296
00:20:38.119 --> 00:20:42.920
That can't be healthy or something,
and it must be scary. People

297
00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:47.240
have said that about me for a
time or two. But you think you're

298
00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:51.319
really I think it's really scary to
think about things that are moving around in

299
00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:53.400
your brain. So, well,
what are some of the ones that you've

300
00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:57.440
done recently that you've maybe gotten some
great response from. Well, I mean

301
00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:03.920
the sensitive fans one always gets a
great reaction from. And it's just it's

302
00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:11.319
my opinion. I mean I almost
daily talked of pretty much all of these

303
00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:15.920
fan bases, UM, so I'm
very in tune with with you know,

304
00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:19.160
how they interact. Um. And
I've been you know, all over the

305
00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:25.039
country too, so I can see
a lot of these well in person.

306
00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:30.359
But I mean I just come up
with these lists. I mean they I

307
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:33.279
just come up really up with them. I kind of have a schedule.

308
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:36.680
I've been doing this for two years
now. Right now, I'm in the

309
00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:40.960
middle of my player rankings for every
position, and I just got called out

310
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:48.200
by Brett Bulima or the Illinois head
coach on my cornerback list. So every

311
00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:52.720
list, it's a different response.
It's you'll love me one day, she'll

312
00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:57.799
hate me the next day. How
often does like a coach or an athletic

313
00:21:57.839 --> 00:22:04.279
director or somebody in a position like
that respond to you or reply to something?

314
00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:07.559
And is it pretty much every list? Or how often does that happen?

315
00:22:08.039 --> 00:22:12.200
Say, I mean we've got one
hundred and thirty three. They almost

316
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:19.759
every let's get a reaction from some
coach or official accounts or for some radio

317
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:25.359
show, guys, article and sports
illustrated battle list. Probably, I mean

318
00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:30.799
it's every day. So is that
the response you're hoping for? Yeah,

319
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:34.000
I mean I just I kind of
just start doing this on a women and

320
00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:38.880
yeah, I wit, I lot
to seeing people argue about it. Did

321
00:22:38.920 --> 00:22:42.279
you respond? Did you respond to
those guys, the coach and maybe the

322
00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:48.240
ads? Ye? Oh yeah?
And what's our reaction? Okay you make

323
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:52.519
sense or you're still full of it? Yeah? No, no, I

324
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:57.680
like I've had jet Bish on my
podcast before. I mean, the great

325
00:22:57.720 --> 00:23:03.200
guy. That's why I'm kind of
rooting for Arizona because of my experience with

326
00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:06.920
him. I want to see him
succeed there. Really nice guy. Well

327
00:23:06.920 --> 00:23:08.000
where are you? Where are you
from? Where'd you go to school?

328
00:23:08.920 --> 00:23:14.839
So I want to tell you,
Okay, I live in Oklahoma? Oh

329
00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:18.160
you live? You still live in
Oklahoma? Okay? Yeah? How are

330
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:26.599
their fans? We're pretty sensitive,
I would say, I mean with the

331
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:30.519
Lincoln Riley leaving to USC, I
mean, our fan base is still not

332
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:34.000
over. It'll take years to get
over that, right, right. So

333
00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:37.720
I think though, that because you're
in the hotbed of that program, you

334
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:41.960
know that program, right, But
it's hard to kind of know other programs

335
00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:45.640
because you're not in the heart of
that program like Arizona. Uh, you

336
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:49.359
nailed it for football. For basketball, it's a totally different beast. So

337
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.559
your confidence in picking the list,
even though you're not in that city is

338
00:23:55.359 --> 00:24:00.720
okay. You're okay with that final
nags. It creates for great discussions.

339
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:03.759
Well that's true. That's true,
and it has you. You have no

340
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:07.960
idea how many times one of those
has come across in our last segment of

341
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:11.359
the day, and it gives us
something that gives us something to talk about.

342
00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:15.960
So you want to let us know
something. You mentioned player player rankings,

343
00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:18.880
but what are some other stuff that's
that is coming up that we need

344
00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:23.880
to keep an eye out for.
I'll start some of player rankings, I'll

345
00:24:23.880 --> 00:24:30.160
start doing coach rankings by position.
Um. That always seems to get people

346
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:33.599
fired up. And then it's really
just I mean, gosh, we're almost

347
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:38.119
in June it's just you know there
there'll be stuff coming out every day that

348
00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:44.240
I do. Um, how do
you get through the dog days? Because

349
00:24:44.240 --> 00:24:47.880
we know that you know, once
once the NBA playoffs are over, you

350
00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:51.400
know we can we can think about
football. But it's still three months away.

351
00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:55.079
Um, how are we gonna feel
the how we're gonna feel that void?

352
00:24:55.640 --> 00:24:56.839
Well, you've got, I mean
all kinds of stuff. I've still

353
00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:03.599
got my my implement stadium bathroom rankings. I'm out towards the start of the

354
00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:07.880
season, and that that one is
always a great debate. Um, so

355
00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:12.200
I'm having fun fun list like that, and then stuff the serious with the

356
00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:18.079
players and coaches back and a lot
of time, uh research and the stuff.

357
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:22.880
And so you have one that came
out I guess a couple of days

358
00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:27.359
ago, the top twenty five quietest
college football stadiums. I don't see Arizona

359
00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:32.880
on this, so you really haven't
been here, Steve Well. I know

360
00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:37.279
when the Zona Zoo, the student
section is in full force. That stadium

361
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:41.240
can get loud. When it's in
full force. Well, and you're not

362
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:42.880
there in the second half of the
football game. Sucked for a while,

363
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:49.160
but get the stadium can get hoppy
Jason, So thank you, Jason.

364
00:25:49.920 --> 00:25:55.759
I mean because I know the basketball
Atmateur at McHale is one of the best

365
00:25:55.759 --> 00:26:00.519
in the country, so that I
next kind of translate the foot ball before.

366
00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:03.640
But you know, back when Richard
Regrez is there'd atmosphere. I try

367
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:07.279
to not base it based on you
know, when a programs that's the very

368
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:11.759
bottom you know of their where they
are, you know, with being good

369
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:15.920
or bad. Um obviously you expect
that stake and to be quiet when he

370
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:22.759
was on the eleven um. So
I try to try to, you know,

371
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:26.200
give the only person I'm giving Steve
some dirty looks right now. The

372
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:30.519
only person you hear the football stadium
is the Gonzales family when they go to

373
00:26:30.599 --> 00:26:37.359
when they go to football games.
Okay, is there what which sport do

374
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:40.920
you think has because you know you
got football and you got some places with

375
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:45.480
basketball. Which sport has the absolute
I don't, I don't with the right

376
00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:52.200
word is just the craziest fans where
you just go. You guys have lost

377
00:26:52.240 --> 00:27:00.359
your minds college football football, I
meanege football. Uh yeah, only the

378
00:27:00.359 --> 00:27:03.960
most popular people are the most passionate
about it, I know, and you're

379
00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:08.079
part of the country they're probably more
passionate about basketball, but from the nationwide

380
00:27:08.240 --> 00:27:12.759
dampoint, it's definitely called football.
And who who tops that two or three

381
00:27:12.799 --> 00:27:18.359
list as the most sensitive? No, no, no, the craziest like

382
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:25.400
Jay's definite were you? It's like
nothing else matters right on game day.

383
00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:33.680
Every fan base except for Vanderbilt and
Miszoo are just crazy terms of posting anything

384
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:38.240
interesting. All of them. Well, I mean, you know they did

385
00:27:38.279 --> 00:27:42.200
you see somebody went into a dollar
store or something like that a couple of

386
00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:47.400
weeks ago and set all the Alabama
gear on fire? Did you hear about

387
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:59.000
that? Now? I didn't ride
that. Does that? Do you get

388
00:27:59.119 --> 00:28:03.839
a lot of grief from the Oklahoma
State people given your sooner? Yeah?

389
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:07.599
My wife they went to Oklahoma State. So I'm not to be honest,

390
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.519
guys, I get more flats from
Oklahoma fans. I bet you. I

391
00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:15.480
bet you, yeah, because I
try to be fair, Yeah things,

392
00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:19.720
you know, unbiased as possible,
and so ou fans don't like that.

393
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:25.839
They think number one thing, So
I kept at a flat from them.

394
00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:29.000
Yeah, I've got I've got a
guy in a breakfast club that I go

395
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:32.160
to. He was like he played
it. He played football at Oklahoma like

396
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:36.319
in the fifties and heat. That
guy the minute I walk in the door

397
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:40.759
every every Tuesday morning, he's going
off about the softball team and how they've

398
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:42.480
won the last one game. And
they said, you know what, they're

399
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:45.599
just paying their players better than anybody
else. That's all. That's all.

400
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:51.599
Yeah, Well Oklahoma has been more, has been, was dominant before the

401
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:56.359
nil era. Yeah, they were. So. Are you gonna see one

402
00:28:56.400 --> 00:29:02.359
of those lists the best nil deals
in codes, football or programs? Yeah,

403
00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:04.279
I mean I do. I mean
I did one not too long ago,

404
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:08.519
like the best uh school for nil
opportunities in every state, which I

405
00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:15.039
think right now for you guys,
definitely Arizona um bad words from the state.

406
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:21.400
Didn't care at all about any and
that's why we're from. Yeah,

407
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:25.559
the game. Yeah, we like
your maps that always have. You know,

408
00:29:25.799 --> 00:29:27.279
it's it's the best, this,
the best that, if whatever in

409
00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:30.400
the state, and it's always Arizona. I know there was one with you

410
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.759
the other day. I can't remember
what it was, but you know we

411
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.559
were like your map. We like
your maps with the with the top schools

412
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:41.319
in each state. That's good.
Yeah. No, I'm I'm bear bear

413
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:47.400
down. I mean I liked Fish
is doing so, so I want to

414
00:29:47.440 --> 00:29:51.359
see next step this year. Got
to make a bowl game. That's tough,

415
00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:53.319
but I think it's duable. I
think they can get to six and

416
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:56.599
six, seven and five, maybe
eight and fourth. They like the upset,

417
00:29:56.680 --> 00:30:00.519
like the dig in two CLA last
year. Okay, so I just

418
00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:03.920
see another one from last week the
top twenty five greatest college softball teams of

419
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:08.599
all time us LA. Of course, of course, after their little debacle

420
00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:15.799
last weekend Oklahoma two Arizona three.
Was that one of those favoritism for Oklahoma.

421
00:30:15.559 --> 00:30:22.960
Well, living in the moment right
now, like I just can't imagine

422
00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:27.839
Arizona being as dominant as ou.
I mean, oh, you kind of

423
00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:33.359
changed the game in softball, and
softball used to be a slapped the ball

424
00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:36.559
around the park, you know,
score one run, two runs here.

425
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:41.440
Now it's it's a it's a home
run derby. And that really started from

426
00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:48.200
Oteum. So that's why I kind
of gave them the non over Arizona that

427
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:52.160
two spots, all right. I
mean, look, he's got an argument,

428
00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:56.079
right, It's a good argument.
So that's all right. The fans

429
00:30:56.200 --> 00:31:02.599
do take their softball here extremely seriously. Yeah, and they're they're not very

430
00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:04.640
happy about how things are right now. But that's that's where it goes.

431
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:08.960
That's where it goes. Okay,
all right, well John, that this

432
00:31:10.279 --> 00:31:12.240
it's always fun. We're gonna want
to talk to you some more and maybe

433
00:31:12.279 --> 00:31:15.720
as we get closer to football season
with some of the lists you you're gonna

434
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:19.359
have coming out looking forward to the
bathroom list, because I can tell you,

435
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:23.519
I can tell you with a certain
amount of authority, the Arizona has

436
00:31:23.559 --> 00:31:26.920
a new end to their stadium.
In the bathrooms in the new end part

437
00:31:27.000 --> 00:31:30.920
are great, but the bathrooms in
the old part underneath where my seats are,

438
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:37.160
it's scary, just just scary.
But they're not gonna do anything because

439
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:41.039
they're they're gonna knock down that side
of the stadium coming up, so you

440
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:42.240
know, it's still they still have
a trough. That's all I gotta tell

441
00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:48.000
you. So it's just very scary
down there. So yeah, well,

442
00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:52.640
thank thank you John the Husual,
thanks for having fun with us. All

443
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:56.279
right, thank you well, John, John Whittaker, fun fun guy.

444
00:31:56.720 --> 00:32:00.599
Hey, just okay, just looking
back to this, h got just a

445
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:05.559
little over a week ago, Best
fifty fifty Best College tailgating in the Unite

446
00:32:05.599 --> 00:32:08.759
in the US. Arizona is on
the list at thirty two. Thirty two,

447
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:13.720
Okay, and Alice, he was
number one, which I've always heard,

448
00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:16.559
old miss at the Grove, I've
always heard, I don't know how

449
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:22.279
what's special about Iowa state and South
Carolina up there, But um, Washington

450
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:25.519
has got some great tailgate and I've
been I've done tailgating at Washington. Yeah,

451
00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:30.359
um uh yeah. Michigan in the
top twenty, but Arizona is at

452
00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:35.079
thirty two. The thing about Arizona, it's got a great it's like one

453
00:32:35.240 --> 00:32:38.279
specific area. It's just a huge
party. Then that's good. Yeah,

454
00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:42.319
when it's rocking, it's rocking.
Yeah. Good food like good food,

455
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:45.359

it's still hot and people are, you

456
00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:49.400
know, kind of just having fun
on the on the park. So I'm

457
00:32:49.400 --> 00:32:52.119
glad to see he put Arizona in
the top fifty of that one. But

458
00:32:53.480 --> 00:32:58.880
all, okay, okay, let's
take a break, um last break.

twenty five former players, coaches,
and friends to give insight to the coach

467

competed against them, and inspired them.

who I was trying to call in? But here was HI? You're on

519
00:37:14.079 --> 00:37:16.159
the R and I on the ball. Hey, what's going on? This?

520
00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:22.519
Is Vic. Hey, Vic,
I just wanted to kind of argue

521
00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:28.800
your guys point with a list about
Oklahoma Arizona and him saying Oklahoma changed the

522
00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:36.320
landscape of yea of a football and
he's crazy as all get out. I

523
00:37:36.400 --> 00:37:38.599
mean, they do have Lauren Chamberlain
at the top of the home run list,

524
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:44.679
but Arizona still has like four,
maybe even five of the top and

525
00:37:45.199 --> 00:37:49.639
home run leaders of all times.
Yeah. I got a text out the

526
00:37:50.480 --> 00:37:54.719
chambers Uh, Lauren A. Spinoza
and without looking a couple more in there,

527
00:37:55.000 --> 00:38:00.960
Yeah, Arizona there, Sharon,
so of all time. He has

528
00:38:00.039 --> 00:38:07.000
to put Arizona second. The Oklahoma
rules scene now, but it's not even

529
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:13.360
I gotta text exactly that same thing. The landscape where I'll be honest,

530
00:38:13.679 --> 00:38:17.199
my kids one have graduated from college
without Mike Andrea. You know, I

531
00:38:17.280 --> 00:38:22.239
think you can argue that Oklahoma wouldn't
be Oklahoma if Arizona hadn't been Arizona first.

532
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:24.199
So no, that's it, that's
it. I gotta text exactly,

533
00:38:24.239 --> 00:38:30.840
Oklahoma isn't Oklahoma without Hey. Yeah, So, I mean that's what I

534
00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:35.400
said. Soft If Oklahoma is great
and softball, it's because of what Arizona

535
00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:42.679
and UCLA did before that. Well, like I said, I'm telling you,

536
00:38:42.840 --> 00:38:47.639
without without Mike Andrea, my kids
doesn't even graduate from college. Yeah.

537
00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:51.599
No, I agree with you,
and my daughter said that many times.

538
00:38:51.840 --> 00:38:53.800
Yeah no, I agree with you
very much. That's a hell of

539
00:38:53.880 --> 00:39:00.280
a statement. But we still need
ditching on both the people. Oh this

540
00:39:00.440 --> 00:39:04.360
is this is Vic. Okay,
No, I know who's calling. Okay,

541
00:39:04.440 --> 00:39:06.440
No, Vic? Are you right? You're right because you know the

542
00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:09.360
game? I know you do.
Um, this is your did you see

543
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:13.639
that? Did you watch the game
today? Vic? Oh? Heck yeah,

544
00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:17.840
every every Okay. How comfortable were
you at when Arizona was up twelve

545
00:39:17.920 --> 00:39:22.599
to eight, like in the seventh
in he was texted you about this at

546
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:29.079
all? I actually texted that.
I was crying my butt off pitching and

547
00:39:29.320 --> 00:39:34.039
they still don't have enough runds and
they did not. Yeah, it could

548
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:37.920
have been fifteen to zero and I'd
have been crying in the night. Relaxed,

549
00:39:38.039 --> 00:39:40.400
Vick, relax heay, they get
to play another game. Man,

550
00:39:40.480 --> 00:39:44.480
Live to breathe another day, Live
to breathe another day. I'm telling you,

551
00:39:44.599 --> 00:39:49.920
man, I'm excited. I always
get excited. Um, but you

552
00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:52.559
know, I know you guys laugh
at fans and stuff. But I'm gonna

553
00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:57.280
tell you you can be snowflake fans
or else that your team ain't gonna get

554
00:39:57.320 --> 00:40:00.320
better. That I agree with you. I agree with you. But point

555
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:04.199
is they're not. They're not listening
to you. Guys complaining because they have

556
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:07.880
they have to work, they have
to do their job. You're crying,

557
00:40:08.119 --> 00:40:15.960
no, exactly, But I mean
yesterday Jay said Tommy Lloyd is not going

558
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:20.559
to go after guys that can't score. And I started laughing because I thought

559
00:40:20.599 --> 00:40:23.719
of Ramy and Henderson and I'm like, I could have beat both of them

560
00:40:23.800 --> 00:40:29.559
in the whole game. That's not
true. They scored at times, they

561
00:40:29.639 --> 00:40:36.079
just didn't score consistently. Okay,
they didn't score against Princess Kay, Okay,

562
00:40:36.920 --> 00:40:38.599
I'm with you on that, but
they did against you. Vic.

563
00:40:38.679 --> 00:40:43.400
We gotta get you to some happy
counsel. How to be a happy man?

564
00:40:45.360 --> 00:40:50.280
All right, Jig, I'm telling
you, but a couple of pictures

565
00:40:50.320 --> 00:40:53.480
in baseball and softball and somebody that
can put the three in the hall and

566
00:40:53.519 --> 00:40:59.519
I'll be happy. We'll see,
we'll see if they come up the exactly.

567
00:41:00.719 --> 00:41:04.880
All right, Vic, Thanks by
appreciate it, Thanks for listening.

568
00:41:05.039 --> 00:41:09.280
How did you realize this is Vic
who who's no, No, that Vick

569
00:41:12.679 --> 00:41:15.440
because he texted me earlier. Is
it come out relaxed a little? His

570
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:20.400
last name, you don't know what
you know his last name. It's very

571
00:41:20.440 --> 00:41:22.719
out to you after the show.
But I said, no, no,

572
00:41:22.880 --> 00:41:27.519
wonder he's always unhappy and that might
give you a hint of what his last

573
00:41:27.599 --> 00:41:30.280
day. But that he fixed as
fine. I love that, but it's

574
00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:35.119
you know, it's the same take
too. We need pitching, both women,

575
00:41:35.239 --> 00:41:37.840
and we need pitching at three point
shooting. I love that score,

576
00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:43.840
right, But you don't didn't know
what everybody wants, oh Jason. One

577
00:41:43.880 --> 00:41:47.079
thing you learn in this business,
no one's ever happy, no one.

578
00:41:47.400 --> 00:41:52.079
I've noticed that. So yeah,
and you'll become a disgruntled sportswriter and no

579
00:41:52.280 --> 00:41:58.119
time, Yeah, trust me,
Yeah exactly. That's what he got out

580
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:01.599
of the business. He liked to
do much. God I did. Man.

581
00:42:01.960 --> 00:42:06.519
I wanted to be miserable. No, no, you gotta because you

582
00:42:06.559 --> 00:42:07.639
didn't want to I know, but
no, But I wanted to be miserable

583
00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:12.480
as a fan a sports right.
But there's two different there's two different things.

584
00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:16.679
They're two very different things. So
no, I've chosen to be okay,

585
00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:22.760
there's one minute. No, that's
only time for calls. I'm still

586
00:42:22.760 --> 00:42:27.519
feeling bad about Tina Turner Man,
and I feel even worse that Jason doesn't

587
00:42:27.559 --> 00:42:32.199
even know who Tina Turner or was
four of Donna summers or Donna summer there

588
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:36.559
before my time. So there was
a lot of things before you tend.

589
00:42:37.079 --> 00:42:39.239
We gotta get you some pump,
you know, Michael Jordans, Yeah,

590
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:43.760
I do. Well, that's because
I'm around basket. Okay. How big

00:42:54.119 --> 00:42:57.800
I'm out. You're not huge music
guy, Not really. I mean

595
00:42:57.800 --> 00:43:00.800
I listened to the people nowadays,
you know, like some of the you

596
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:04.320
know, prominent people now but like
you know, the older kind of music.

597
00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:07.280
Music isn't shaping your life, not
really. No, I'm gonna be

598
00:43:07.320 --> 00:43:10.719
honest. I am who I am
because of music. That's great. That's

599
00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:17.320
actually a bad thing. Yes,
But you know, I hear a song

600
00:43:17.400 --> 00:43:21.280
and it takes me to a spot. Okay, right, that always does

601
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:22.960
me too. I mean, it
takes me to a moment in time,

602
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:30.639
right time, girls dumping in dumping
me, you know, maybe how drunk

603
00:43:30.679 --> 00:43:34.840
I got on a certain night,
you know, or some girl who didn't

604
00:43:34.840 --> 00:43:37.960
want to have anything to do with
me. You know. But there's every

605
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:42.880
song pretty much, you know that
I hear and mind I don't listen to

606
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:46.280
new stuff. I'm stuck in the
seventies and eighties. When I hear a

607
00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:52.000
song, there's always a moment that
comes with that song. Everything always oh

608
00:43:53.119 --> 00:43:55.800
yeah, because that it was,
that was a big deal because we didn't

609
00:43:57.000 --> 00:43:59.800
you know, we didn't have video
games. We didn't you know, we

610
00:43:59.880 --> 00:44:04.320
have three channels to watch TV one
and all that stuff. So so music

611
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:07.280
was the big deal in music in
the car, music in your room,

612
00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:12.280
A country skate cut. You have
no idea how many songs taking me back

613
00:44:12.320 --> 00:44:23.320
to skate country couples only man by
himself we did skate with now at the

614
00:44:23.559 --> 00:44:30.920
Flying V. We we you know, we just had breakfast on Saturday and

615
00:44:31.039 --> 00:44:37.079
what used to be the Cactus Club. Did you ever know? You but

616
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:38.800
I know what you're talking about.
He was the Cactus Club. The Cactus

617
00:44:38.840 --> 00:44:44.320
Club and the Fine V. I
Flying V were the two nights in the

618
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:49.920
in the mid eighties. Yeah,
yeah, but yeah, it's it's a

619
00:44:50.079 --> 00:44:52.960
Venezuelan restaurant now, okay, and
it was very good. It's very good.

620
00:44:54.800 --> 00:44:59.119
We were losing people right now.
No, actually we're not people going

621
00:44:59.199 --> 00:45:01.159
God, I remember that. I
remember that. I remember that. Actually,

622
00:45:01.199 --> 00:45:04.679
yeah, we were. Do you
know what the record is? Yeah?

623
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:07.880
Have you ever seen one like live
in person? Like held win in

624
00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:12.119
your hand? Um? I think
I have. Yeah, I haven't liked

625
00:45:12.679 --> 00:45:15.679
it. I like the covered,
yeah I have, But I've never liked

626
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:17.320
played one play in person before.
No, but I have seen one.

627
00:45:17.320 --> 00:45:20.840
Do you know what a forty five
is? Um? I don't think so.

628
00:45:21.039 --> 00:45:24.679
No, it's it's it's a smaller
record this month song. But I

629
00:45:24.719 --> 00:45:28.239
don't think I've never like seen a
one person before. You gotta watch a

630
00:45:28.280 --> 00:45:31.159
movie called Diner. It has the
whole thing about forty fives and albums and

631
00:45:31.199 --> 00:45:38.639
stuff like. Ok let me another
something else started to yesterday Fiucci Pegasus.

632
00:45:38.760 --> 00:45:43.239
Remember the horse that won the preakn
won the Derby in two thousand, that

633
00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:49.480
one he passed away yesterday, twenty
three years ago he won the Derby.

634
00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:53.079
Remember that horse? I remember that
horse. A lot of just man,

635
00:45:53.239 --> 00:45:58.480
it's just weird. It's just weird. Yeah. And then I think we

636
00:45:58.559 --> 00:46:01.960
talked about bat Her taking his to
the Bellmont National Treasure taking into Bellmont.

637
00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:06.599
I don't think he'll run or be
well in it because the distance, long

638
00:46:07.159 --> 00:46:09.719
distance, long race. Yeah,
we'll see if we'll see if the Todd

639
00:46:09.760 --> 00:46:14.480
Pleasure comes back because he had been
suspend in trouble, right, got suspended

640
00:46:14.559 --> 00:46:22.199
for drug drug testing on Forte and
other things that really fourte from back in

641
00:46:22.280 --> 00:46:25.599
September of last year. So we'll
see what happens with that. So the

642
00:46:25.679 --> 00:46:30.559
third leg is going to be interesting, all right, we'll see what happens.

643
00:46:30.599 --> 00:46:32.199
Well. I think it's kind of
like there's nothing to it, right,

644
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:36.519
there's no triple crown winner, there's
no great horse. Kind of like,

645
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:39.639
okay, we'll run the Bellmont because
we always do, right, right.

646
00:46:39.800 --> 00:46:43.519
You remember when it ran it in
September October and we're kind of not

647
00:46:43.679 --> 00:46:45.679
interested. It was kind of like
because it was so it was so far

648
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:49.880
fetched. Yeah, and there was
no nothing really going only not behind it.

649
00:46:50.039 --> 00:46:52.719
Yeah, I mean I'm still be
interested. I don't probably if I'm

650
00:46:52.440 --> 00:46:55.599
home not doing anything, I'll watch
it. So tomorrow we're gonna have some

651
00:46:55.760 --> 00:47:00.039
pretty good guests. Right. Um, we're while we've lined up Brandon and

652
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:04.519
bringing it up, right, Brandon
Sanders is gonna come in, gonna talk

653
00:47:04.559 --> 00:47:07.760
about, um, all the football
camps that are coming up, just things

654
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:12.320

Arizona football. See what they're all up

655
00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:15.159

00:47:15.199 --> 00:47:19.599

657
00:47:20.000 --> 00:47:22.559
Sugar Skulls, the game they just
had and then a big huge game coming

658
00:47:22.679 --> 00:47:28.480

Panthers home game, six o'clock. Um,

659
00:47:29.159 --> 00:47:31.199

place. The Panthers are half a

660
00:47:31.199 --> 00:47:35.760
game ahead of Arizona two Sons two
sons, tied for second with a four

661
00:47:35.800 --> 00:47:38.119

all bunched up in the in the West

662
00:47:38.199 --> 00:47:43.599
Division. Um, the Rattlers,
who are three and four going into last

663
00:47:43.639 --> 00:47:47.360

immediately blasted in order to the Arizona put

664
00:47:47.440 --> 00:47:51.360
a sixty burger on those guys,
and so they're at four and four.

665
00:47:51.400 --> 00:47:54.960
So all those teams in the West
Division are bunched up. Four teams.

666
00:47:55.679 --> 00:48:00.440
There's eight teams in the division.
Four teams make the playoffs and so,

667
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:04.480
um, it's gonna be tight,
and every one of these games is huge

668
00:48:04.519 --> 00:48:07.440
for the for the Sugar Scalls.
You want to get into the top two

669
00:48:07.480 --> 00:48:09.679
in your division so you can host
a first round game, which Arizona or

670
00:48:09.679 --> 00:48:14.920

687
00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:21.599
your wife for? My wife's not
listening. She's busy doing some other stuff.

688
00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:24.119
She knows, she knows that the
Donna Summer was one of my h

689
00:49:24.679 --> 00:49:28.719
was one of my heart throbs back
in the day, you know. Just

690
00:49:29.519 --> 00:49:31.559
Tina Turner not so much, but
her music was awesome, you know,

691
00:49:32.719 --> 00:49:36.800
yeah, and a lot of energy, very legend. She does a tin

692
00:49:37.239 --> 00:49:39.519
and then she did it when I
um when when I saw her, she

693
00:49:39.599 --> 00:49:44.840
did a cover of um, the
Al Green song Let's Stay Together, which

694
00:49:44.960 --> 00:49:49.280
was just more of a beat version
of it, which to this day I

695
00:49:49.679 --> 00:49:52.679
have it, you know on my
playlist, say it was. It's a

696
00:49:52.760 --> 00:49:55.039
great song. It's a great version
of it because that's one of my That

697
00:49:55.239 --> 00:50:00.320
song that the original is one of
my top ten songs ever back in the

698
00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:04.159
day. That's a seventies song,
maybe in the late sixties song, probably

699
00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:09.400
seventies Whereverend L. Green? Yeah, okay three minutes. Did you have

700
00:50:09.639 --> 00:50:13.440

702
00:50:15.639 --> 00:50:20.960
I mean, was there one one
or two that you basically went and bought

703
00:50:21.039 --> 00:50:24.000

seventy six it was the Saturday Night
Fevere album. Yeah. Um, but

706
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:36.360

a commodos guy like all old school seven

707
00:50:36.480 --> 00:50:39.400
mid seventies, a later seventies.
Um, you know, I cried for

course, But but I bought earth Wind

out some names that people would say, those guys are so yesterday, you're

717
00:51:17.639 --> 00:51:22.760

throw out any name of current people,

718
00:51:22.039 --> 00:51:24.679
I mean there's something that I like, but you know, um, they're

719
00:51:24.719 --> 00:51:30.159
freeal far between my daughter. My
daughter says I have a gap because I

720
00:51:30.280 --> 00:51:37.280
basically stopped listening to anything newer than
nineteen eighty six or eighty seven up until

721
00:51:37.320 --> 00:51:43.039
about when I became the play by
play announcer at the Saint Gregory basketball games

722
00:51:43.199 --> 00:51:45.840
and I had to play music at
timeouts and stuff, so I had to

723
00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:50.159
get some stuff that was like up
to date, so from like late eighties,

724
00:51:50.199 --> 00:51:55.000
maybe ninety ninety two until like twenty
two, thousand and eight, anything

725
00:51:55.119 --> 00:51:59.519
in there. She calls my gap
because I don't know if any any songs

726
00:51:59.639 --> 00:52:01.320
or anything thing that was a large
gap. That is a huge gap,

727
00:52:01.679 --> 00:52:05.320
and it still remains. It's a
big gap. Yeah. A song will

728
00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:07.400
come on and I'm like, oh, this is a great song, and

729
