Sports Stage yet Fox Sports fourteen fifty

my I in the ball here on Fox

4
00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:18.320
Sports torteen fifty. I'm Steve,
He's Jay. Now we have sid with

5
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:24.839
breaking news. Eye on the ball, breaking news all right, starting with

6
00:00:24.879 --> 00:00:31.280
the women's basketball news. Arizona women's
basketball plays Washington State tonight at six home

7
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:36.000
game here. You know, I
mean, are they I don't think they're

8
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:39.960
tournament worthy? Steve No, No. She even talked about that. She

9
00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:43.240
was very candid on the press press
conference, saying she needs to win a

10
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:46.759
few games, obviously one or two
in the tournament to even have a chance.

11
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:50.399
You know, I'll due respect her, and I said this earlier this

12
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:54.759
week. She's very shorthanded, whether
it's her undoing or the team's undoing,

13
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:59.960
or injuries undoing. Unlucky, unlucky. They are playing gritty. They are

14
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.280
they're playing gritty. Yeah, you
know, I mean, they were they

15
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.079
they they you know, they battled
the USC for a while, but you

16
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:08.000
clearly could tell that, you know, the numbers ran out. Sure,

17
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:11.280
the numbers ran out for them the
other night. Sure, and then the

18
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:14.280
US. She does have one of
the best players in college basketball. They

19
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:18.799
kind of do. Speaking of good
players, Kaitlyn Clark last night broke the

20
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:23.000
U and still late Division one scoring
record. I mean with that the transition

21
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:26.359
three from the logo fantastic. That
was a hell of a shot. And

22
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:30.599
she knew she scored all the first
time. Oh yeah, oh yeah,

23
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:34.040
yeah, she scored the first eight
points to get it. Yeah, that's

24
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:37.719
just show enough. But she was
showing up and well, she knew it,

25
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:40.680
she could do it. Her quote
was something like, how could I

26
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:44.239
not shoot from there? For the
for the record, I mean, she's

27
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:49.159
taking college basketball in general bastball.
I mean they're getting huge crowds out there

28
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.680
to Iowa for her game, and
the road and the road. Yeah,

29
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:57.879
so well, the fun thing is
you're going to have Curry and esc right,

30
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:00.840
shoot. I want to have I
would. Oh yeah, she may

31
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:07.280
become one of the better shooters and
in women's basketball history if her continent looks

32
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:09.960
like it's going to continue into her
pro career as well. A number of

33
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:16.000
people have declared her the best player
college women's college basketball player ever ever.

34
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:20.639
I don't know how much you ever
paid attention to it. No, I

35
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:24.520
haven't you know again the old recency
bass because I remember Cheryl Miller Pretty Day

36
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:31.360
Grinder was fantastic, Baylor right right, and then you have the girl from

37
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.360
Age Bucker. I've never thought much
of Paige Buker's. But then you had

38
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:39.400
who's in that shootout with? No, but you can't list the list of

39
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:43.360
players. Yeah, they'd a bunch
of them. Then you think about I

40
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:45.919
mean, you know, yeah,
So I don't know if you can declare

41
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:52.639
I know Charles Barkley declared that today
they don't they a m Come on,

42
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:58.039
believe Charles Barkley picks on the sixty
eight team never gets it right. Come

43
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:00.680
on, just because Charles has as
a the opinion, I'm gonna say,

44
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.800
Okay, Charles, thank you.
No, No, he's wrong. He's

45
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:07.639
wrong in more than half the time. I don't come on, are you

46
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:12.719
gonna he's your he's your? I
love Charles, Yeah, no, so

47
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:15.479
why but come on, you know, just because he says me it's a

48
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:23.960
good Hamburger doesn't mean okay, okay. Got some Arizona Man's basketball news with

49
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:28.840
Christian Cloco going into the ring of
honor on Saturday. That's interesting. That's

50
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.479
because of Defensive Player of the year. Defense player. Then, so let

51
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:34.599
me ask you this. Go ahead, and you go ahead or you be

52
00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:38.639
the comageing and maybe you won't be
well, does he deserve it for this?

53
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:40.319
Here's the thing here, here's what
I wish they. I just want

54
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:43.560
to yes or no answer. So
no, he doesn't. Okay, it

55
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:46.319
is not now you explained it.
Okay. I wish that instead of you

56
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:50.439
do this, this, this,
this or this and you're in right,

57
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:53.919
and like you know, like Josh
Green is in right. It's like,

58
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:59.759
we're just gonna look at your body
of work and if it's a committee or

59
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.039
three people or one person or whatever
it says, you're in or you're not

60
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:08.240
based on your overall achievements at Arizona, right, Because you know, why

61
00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:12.719
did it take so long to get
Al Fleming in sure right? Why did

62
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.599
it take so long to get Ernie
McCrae in Why did it take so long

63
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.319
to even get Bob Elliott in politics? Right? What's your body of work?

64
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:23.920
And and and some of these guys
who are in you know, I

65
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:27.839
don't think Ben Mathm deserves to be
in because yes, he got, he

66
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:30.240
got Player of the Year. But
I feel like the ring of honor has

67
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:33.240
to be more than having one great
year, right when that's all they really

68
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.759
that's what that's what it is.
You know, Jared Bayless is in there

69
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:42.000
ten years of the NBA. Right, Yeah, No, I hear you,

70
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:43.720
I hear you. That's why I
asked you, because I need to

71
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:46.000
give you that answer. It's hard
to say what's right and what's wrong.

72
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.839
They have there's some damn good players, but I'm with you, they haven't

73
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:54.240
been here long enough. They weren't
here to establish themselves. Do we even

74
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:58.160
know who they are? Right?
Right? Green? Do what? What

75
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:00.800
kind of favorite? For the hell? You know? Even Jared who I

76
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:05.399
covered? All right, Okay,
thanks Jared. Yeah, that's what I'm

77
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:13.439
saying. I hate this definitive criteria. I didn't initially right because I thought

78
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:16.199
it was hard to get to.
Yeah, but now there's ten All America

79
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:19.000
teams, there's eight Players of the
Year, and you know getting one of

80
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:23.399
those. Look, does Jason Terry
deserve to be up? Yes? You

81
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:27.319
think so? Yes, given the
lawsuit or the d C double A.

82
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:30.920
Yeah, yeah, player of the
Year he was in ninety nine. He

83
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:33.079
was the best player of the year
in college legitimately. Yeah, not just

84
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:39.000
he was here for years, right, But to me, that's kind of

85
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.240
like you got to be at least
that good. I'll give you this.

86
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:44.279
I'll give you this. Okay.
So who's are this the best players?

87
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:46.720
And we talked about this week,
right, who's the best? Our top

88
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:53.519
three? Damon, uh, Sean, Sean and baby right, Dams thoughtler,

89
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:58.480
I don't think he is. I
don't think he is. Yeah,

90
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:00.920
well, there you go, And
that's my issue. If he's not up

91
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:03.720
there, what the hell is going
on? So I get a call here

92
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:08.680
from anybody. I don't think he
is. And one of the reasons Jason

93
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:11.399
was up there because the the n
C dob a stuff. Yeah. He

94
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:15.879
while Jason Jason won a freshman uh
National Freshman of the Year. You're talking

95
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:19.240
about Jason Terry. Oh you mean
Jason Terry, Jason Terry Jackson Gardner.

96
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:23.800
Yeah. But you know what,
in fact, U did I talk about

97
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:27.279
this yesterday with you? Uh?
In in our most underrated players, some

98
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:31.439
guy and legitimately said Jason Gardner,
And I don't disagree with that. He's

99
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:35.680
played the most minutes of any player
here in in the ub that had a

100
00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:39.639
lot of great stands, had a
lot of big games. And to me

101
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.680
that that's where the whole body of
work argument comes in, because you know

102
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:46.480
he's got he's got a body of
work and and and you know some of

103
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:53.680
these guys does not, absolutely does
not. He had one year and he

104
00:06:54.079 --> 00:07:00.759
was really good. Johnson Stanley,
No is he up there? He is

105
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:01.959
up there. I'm looking at the
list right now, and you're right,

106
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.319
Why the hell is Damon Style?
Yes he is, Yes he is.

107
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.879
I don't know, but he's in
there. I can't even I'm looking at

108
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:14.959
the list right now, thank you, But Damon st maybe a consensus All

109
00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:18.000
American or oh maybe he was a
PAC twelve PAC ten Player of the Year

110
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:23.040
co player, he's in. You
know what I I spitched that out then,

111
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:28.120
yeah, grumpy old grumpy old group. Should Chase Budinger be up there?

112
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.639
No? Right, No, but
he is? I think Should Aaron

113
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:34.959
Gordon be up there? No,
but I'm sure he will be. These

114
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:38.240
guys are all in. There is
marketing in on there now, no,

115
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:42.680
no here, here are the and
he's a fantastic player, and he's built

116
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:46.720
the NBA resume as well. He'll
get Yeah, yeah, I can't remember

117
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.879
Ry Gordon, Nick Johnson, Stanley
Johnson, Jared Baylist, DeAndre Ayton.

118
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:55.160
None of those guys should be there, all Shawn's guys. And maybe we

119
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:59.160
have a little bias for that.
Maybe it's Steve. They're in there because

120
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:01.519
they've won this one award, because
they had one great year. Yeah,

121
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.560
you know when I like, I
see Sean Rooks in there, right,

122
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:07.680
that came here for four years,
played his ass off. What did he

123
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.360
get in for? I don't really
know. It must have been oh to

124
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:13.240
NBA ten years ago, maybe ten
years in the NBA, you know,

125
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.759
same with Bushler to call let's get
this. We're at a time for you.

126
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:20.519
Yeah, yeah, Hi, you're
on the air and I on the

127
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:24.480
ball. Hey guys, Richard Hawdy
Hoey, Richard, what's up? Hey?

128
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:26.639
Uh? Are you guys talking about
the greatest player in Arizona history?

129
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:30.480
Yeah, I know what you're gonna
say, Go ahead, Well, I

130
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.720
I mean, to me, the
greatest, legendary, the most impactful player

131
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.720
is Bob Elliott. Yeah right.
I talked about that with Jay here because

132
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.600
of your email yesterday or the day
before. No, oh okay, And

133
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:45.159
I asked him, why do you
think why do you think he hasn't been

134
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:50.879
considered something like that. It's been
a long time, yeah recently. Yeah,

135
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.200
it's going on fifty years since he
played here. Yeah, But the

136
00:08:56.200 --> 00:09:01.080
more I read about Kiddy Cork,
what I say you said, Uston was,

137
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:03.440
you know, I had heard I'm
old, and I heard that back

138
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.919
in the nineteen seventies growing up in
Oklahoma. I was I knew who Bob

139
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.720
Elliot was. And that's saying something
because you know, it's a long time

140
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.240
ago. I'm out in the middle
of the football state and we didn't have

141
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.039
much interest in basketball at all,
but we knew who Bob Elliott was,

142
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.720
right, so, and that was
very significant along with you of a baseball

143
00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:26.039
We watched that religiously, along with
that, and of course anytime you they

144
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:31.480
was playing ASU in baseball that was
not CTV, you know. But if

145
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:33.840
we head into the modern era,
I'll go with you guys as far as

146
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:37.799
Shawn Elliott and Mike Bibby. Then
after that it's a tough call. It

147
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:41.600
really is a tough coup that Mike
Vibby was. Of course that year he

148
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:46.360
played was fantastic and took one then
asked the championship, right and even better

149
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.320
the next year when they were even

I had was something you guys mentioned

166
00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:03.279
ways with their commissioner. Yep,
I think it's set to February twenty ninth.

167
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.120
I believe in the month they've given
him a two week two we notice.

168
00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:11.440
He'll go back and make a ton
of money whatever he was doing before.

169
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:16.000
Yeah, you know for this,
I looked up his bad he's a

170
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:18.480
journalism major. Did you know that. Yeah, he obviously got out of

171
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.120
it. Well he became a lawyer. You know, he's got he's got

172
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:26.919
a lot of degree from from Virginia. But yeah, I was announced today

173
00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:31.639
that the parting of the ways as
of the end of the month. Uh,

174
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:35.360
not surprising, but they did not
announce who's taking his place, or

175
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.639
if somebody's taking place. There was
just a two line statement. The PACK

176
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:43.039
twelve Board of directors now today that
the conference in George Klafkoff have mutually agreed

177
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:46.440
to part ways in fact to February
twenty I have twenty twenty four. More

178
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.159
details about new leadership of the PAC
twelve will be announced next week. And

179
00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:52.759
I think I talked. I said
to you, they can't roll him out

180
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:56.080
at the bat, No, no, as we were going out, Yes,

181
00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:58.840
yeah, yeah, they can't do
that. No, they can't partying.

182
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:03.559
He's not gonna be anywhere. Well, he kind of made He was

183
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:07.039
at the f A U game and
he was kind of low key there you

184
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.240
with the you didn't go No,
but he was shown on TV. Yeah,

185
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:13.120
he was shown on TV or in
fact, I saw him before they

186
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.639
even acknowledged he was there. Wait
a minute, that's Clay cop beyind he

187
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:20.399
was kind of like behind the scenes. Yeah. Well again I think he

188
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:24.600
still lives there, so yeah,
probably in Vegas. So interesting, uh,

189
00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:31.600
interesting deal. There some more interesting
interesting news. Athletes to skip the

190
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:37.960
cognitive test now so sports A sports
agency is directing the NFL draft prospects not

191
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:43.120
to take the S two evaluation that
the wonder lick or whatever it's called.

192
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:46.840
I believe it's, uh, the
S two cognitive tests, which is the

193
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:50.799
one it's the it's the test that
c. J. Stroud took last year

194
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:54.279
during the combine and all that,
and his score did not come back well

195
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:58.759
okay, And so I think I
don't know if it was due to the

196
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:03.679
then play compared to the square on
the test, but it looks like there's

197
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:07.039
gonna be less and less of that
of those tests. It makes no sense

198
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:09.360
to me if you can play,
you can play. Yeah, unless you

199
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:13.679
unless you're jerking, you have a
background, right, you know, then

200
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:15.840
you have to say, okay,
will you this happen again? Yeadha,

201
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:20.600
yeada. If you're taking any of
those personality tests. I don't have a

202
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:22.200
personality no, no, but I
mean, like I work. I had

203
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:26.799
to a few times, right,
was just to find out if I was

204
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:30.600
the butt header. Now I could
have told him, yeah, that's just

205
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:37.720
give me maybe got a little sketch, sketchy, Yeah, give you the

206
00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:46.159
buddy. You can test to find
that out. Well, it was more

207
00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:50.039
it's kind of like to find out
do you work well with others? Yeah?

208
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:58.279
And I don't remember. I don't
remember the test. Is he bitter

209
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:05.519
because the old gradges Jack and you
still were hired work? No? These

210
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:09.559
are while I was already working there. I think you're trying to find out

211
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:13.000
if I should be a supervisor.
The point he's already in the building.

212
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:20.960
So last news here. Jay touched
on it earlier when we were on break.

213
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:26.600
Sacramento is become the likely host for
the A's from twenty twenty five to

214
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:31.759
twenty seven before they officially moved to
Vegas. If the stadium gets built,

215
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:33.440
right befow that article the other day. Yeah, they're messing it up.

216
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.919
I had one real quick before we
get to Jake and a little break.

217
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:39.879
So the Sons are going to have
a D League team for the first time

218
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.919
in a while. They're going to
stay in Phoenix. I had somebody text

219
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:46.600
me a couple of days ago,
why not Tucson. It's a great place

220
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:50.679
to play, a great place,
Rascal Place. And I'm thinking history will

221
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:54.840
show that that's not the case with
pro teams like that. Yeah, you

222
00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:58.519
would know this. Yeah no,
yeah, no, there, they're not

223
00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:01.240
gonna go see it. I've said
for a long time, we've got to

224
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:05.600
get out of here, that the
fans here aren't basketball there. Arizona basketball

225
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:11.519
fans always said that because there were
times that they couldn't fill up McHale FRANCAA

226
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:15.559
tournaments stuff. Sure, no,
no, no doubt. That's and historically

227
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:18.759
the minor league system here has it
really been good. It hasn't been.

228
00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:22.000
Okay, all right, let's take
our break. Jake Fisher will be joining

ball here on Fox Sports fourteen fifteen. I'm Steve, He's Jay. Now

299
00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:21.279
we'd have Jake Fisher form usial a
football player back in the day, one

300
00:20:21.279 --> 00:20:25.519
of our great sponsors. Jake,
how you doing doing well? Guys?

301
00:20:25.519 --> 00:20:27.640
How are you doing fine? I'm
glad you didn't get to the waste management

302
00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:32.960
golf. I was. I'd be
afraid for you. Oh no, yeah,

303
00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:36.400
I didn't go to that. You're
better than that. You're you're you're

304
00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:42.079
more bougie than that. Everyone everyone
on my team and in the athletic department.

305
00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:45.240
It feels like when we were in
college when I was like one of

306
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.759
the only ones that did. And
I don't really plan on going yeah yeah,

307
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:52.000
what do you think about TOAs game
with a issue, Well, it's

308
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:56.240
the rivalry game. Anything can happen, That's what everyone's gonna say. But

309
00:20:56.319 --> 00:20:59.960
if we look as engaged against them
as we did against Colorado, I don't

310
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:03.240
think it's going to be close.
Did when you were when you were here

311
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:07.319
as a as a as a football
player, and obviously, I mean we've

312
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:11.559
talked about football rivalry has always been
bigger, even even you know, back

313
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.839
in the day. But but as
a as an athlete in the department,

314
00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:19.160
football player, and you understood what
the rivalry was there, What did you

315
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.440
think of the basketball rivalry back then? Was it? Did it even matter

316
00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.279
to you guys? Well, of
course it mattered, and you know it

317
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:30.559
matters to me growing up because I
grew up there was a basketball fan.

318
00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:33.240
You know, when you're when you're
playing football, you only play him one

319
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:37.079
time a year. In basketball,
you're playing two times in the regular season.

320
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:41.640
You can play them again in the
past tournament. So we always kind

321
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:45.720
of figured Arizona would win. Obviously, every now and then ASC would upset

322
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:48.480
him and didn't make everyone upset,
and we vowed to get him the next

323
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.119
time. But football is a little
bit different, and the football matchup is

324
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:55.599
a little bit more even in terms
of the all time standing. So,

325
00:21:56.279 --> 00:21:59.480
uh, obviously we cared about it, but we focused more on the football.

326
00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:03.240
I was gonna ask you about,
oh, be being a local dude,

327
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:07.359
does that mean more to you because
you are a local dude here,

328
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:10.720
Well, you grew up here and
now you live not too far from from

329
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:14.599
Tempee. Yeah, of course it
means more to you. Growing up.

330
00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:18.039
I mean, you watch these games
and a lot of the people that you

331
00:22:18.119 --> 00:22:21.519
go to high school with end up
going to a su and uh, you

332
00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:23.480
know, you keep in touch,
you smack talk, and uh, you

333
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:27.400
know, especially like four and after
you're in college, you're going into the

334
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:32.480
games, hanging out watching them and
talking trash at each other. So being

335
00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:36.559
a local guy growing up saying and
actually knowing what the hatreds like during the

336
00:22:36.599 --> 00:22:38.640
game. I mean, there are
some nasty games that those two have been

337
00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:41.000
involved in. It's you know,
it's kind of crazy. It's not one

338
00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:45.039
of these one of these fake rivalries
where you know, these guys are all,

339
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:48.359
you know, best friends and they'll
talk a little trash on the field.

340
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:52.359
You know. I always go back
to my first time walking out of

341
00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:55.799
the tunnel for that game I got. We were wearing the all white jerseys

342
00:22:55.799 --> 00:22:57.839
I got. Uh, it was
like a doctor pepper something thrown on me

343
00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:00.960
by like an eighty year old guy. You know. So it's just you

344
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.519
stay, you stay in that mindset, you know, growing up. Even

345
00:23:04.519 --> 00:23:07.960
when you get older and you're out, you're out of collegs and whatnot,

346
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:11.039
and you know, it's a little
bit different. What's that? What's the

347
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:15.799
first football rivalry game that you can
remember, you know as a kid growing

348
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:19.519
up here? How far back do
we go there? Not very far,

349
00:23:21.799 --> 00:23:25.160
you mean since I've been alive as
a little kid. You know. What.

350
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:27.480
What what's the first Arizona a SU
game do you remember that kind of

351
00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:33.359
mattered to you? Well, the
ones that all of them mattered. But

352
00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:37.759
you know, during the mac of
the era, when Arizona was awful and

353
00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:42.000
losing every year, you know,
especially when you love the sport and whatnot,

354
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:45.640
you stop, you know, you
tend to stop paying attention to it.

355
00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:49.119
So I think the first one that
I can actually remember that meant a

356
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:55.799
great deal was when the Scoops regime
was there and we beat the living dog

357
00:23:55.880 --> 00:24:00.119
crap out of them at home.
The year that we went to the Vegasball.

358
00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:03.400
I believe that's the first one where
I kind of got back into the

359
00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:06.559
swing of things, knowing that we
were on the way up Washington, and

360
00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:10.039
I was super excited about it.
But I'm sure you were a young kid

361
00:24:10.799 --> 00:24:14.519
watching the games, you know,
as a ten twelve year old. Oh

362
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:17.839
yeah, but I can't remember that
far back, and when we were bad,

363
00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:21.319
I didn't pay attention to it because
remember, my whole family's from Nebraska,

364
00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:25.920
and so it was Nebraska on Saturdays, and then late at night,

365
00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:27.720
if you know, if I wasn't
hanging out with friends and stuff like that,

366
00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:30.720
we'd watched the Arizona game when they
weren't good, and half the time

367
00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:34.680
we turned the TV on halfway through
because they just they weren't competitive. Yeah.

368
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:37.920
So when we were in high school
and there, you know, the

369
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:41.319
sup Regine came in, we all
started paying more attention because he saw the

370
00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:42.559
players that they started getting, and
you knew that they were going to be

371
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:48.680
able to start competing again. I
know we've asked you the revenge question a

372
00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:52.680
number of times, and Arizona's got
some revenge revenge factor, you know,

373
00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:56.720
because of that three corps cord shot
from last year that beat him here at

374
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:02.200
home. You know, Tommy kind
of downplays it, but I'm not so

375
00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:04.759
sure the guys downplay. What do
you think, Well, a lot of

376
00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:11.240
these guys are new I honestly,
I think because we beat them pretty handedly

377
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:14.759
in the tournament last year, I
don't think that type of revenge is on

378
00:25:14.799 --> 00:25:18.240
their mind. I honestly, just
because we have, you know, a

379
00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:22.880
one seed in mind in the West, I think they're going to just focus

380
00:25:22.960 --> 00:25:26.000
on getting better and playing every play
like they did against Colorado. You know,

381
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:30.839
I just honestly think that they're kind
of you know, it's not like

382
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:33.000
they look down on ansue. Anything
can happen in a rivalry game. But

383
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:37.799
to be honest with yeah, I
think they're more looking towards improving and continuing

384
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:41.960
the success that they've had over the
past couple of weeks. So so,

385
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:45.640
Jay and I I'm sure you've paid
attention to our debate about Arizona and the

386
00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:52.839
blue blood world that basketball is in. Is Arizona a blue blood basketball program.

387
00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:56.440
No, they're one tier below it, you know. I think,

388
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:00.400
you know, obviously you have the
Dukes that Carolinas, the Kentucky UCLA just

389
00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:03.880
because John Wooden was there and won
ten and what twelve years is there,

390
00:26:04.160 --> 00:26:07.559
even though they haven't really done much
as of late. But I think we're

391
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:12.880
one tier down with you know,
Louisville. I think Yukon after this last

392
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:17.200
year, they have the potential this
year to solidify it. But I think

393
00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:19.680
they're up in that top bracket too, because it's weird. It's like every

394
00:26:21.079 --> 00:26:23.000
six, seven, eight years or
whatever it is, they just go on

395
00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:26.880
to hot streak and win a national
championship. But I think we're kind of

396
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.799
in the second tier. I don't
think we're blue blood if I mean,

397
00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:33.119
if Tommy can solidify that and win
a few, I mean, yeah,

398
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:37.119
you move it up just because of
how many NCAA you know, tournament appearances.

399
00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:40.920
We've had, all the players that
we've had, stuff like that,

400
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:44.400
but we only have one and we
only have four final fours. These other

401
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:47.079
schools, you know, even in
Michigan State, even though I think is

402
00:26:47.160 --> 00:26:49.880
those only one one? What does
he have like nine final fours? Yeah?

403
00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:53.279
Yeah, how old are you?
How old are you? Thirty thirty

404
00:26:53.319 --> 00:26:57.440
three? Oh wow, you're getting
old. Sorry, So twenty seven years

405
00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:00.920
ago, you were six years old
when they won the time. Yeah,

406
00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:04.880
yeah, I remember where I was
that day too. So and then you

407
00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:10.640
know those those final fours after that, when Silver Arenas was hurt against Duke

408
00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:14.519
and we got screwed over at the
end with Jason Gardner getting tackled by Jay

409
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:18.319
Williams. I remember all of it. I remember the three Elite eights that

410
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:22.119
we basically got beaten the last second
when Sean Miller was here. So hey,

411
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:25.839
you know you remember all of that, especially when you're born in Tusun.

412
00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:29.920
Well, and if I recall,
you said basketball was your favorite sport

413
00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:33.359
in high school, right, so
I'm assuming because of that you pay close

414
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:37.640
attention to it. Yeah, basketball
was my favorite sport growing up. You

415
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:41.640
know, if I if Arizona had
a you know, a really really good

416
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:44.640
team at that time, I probably
would have gravitated more to football. But

417
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:48.480
I ended up sticking with football because
I wasn't going to grow to six four

418
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:51.839
or six five, and I was
a little bit better at football. So

419
00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:56.599
the win totals came out this week
for Arizona the Big Twelve, since you

420
00:27:56.640 --> 00:28:00.440
were spot on last year. Since
I might have to put some cash on

421
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:07.240
my Chick Fisher line eight and a
half over a football, I think we're

422
00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:11.799
going to get nine to ten wins. I honestly just because this year,

423
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:15.759
you know Fafida, he knew the
system and everything like that, and you

424
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:19.400
know we were year three of a
coach. I think that was kind of

425
00:28:19.400 --> 00:28:23.000
the reason why we got ten this
year. I'm saying nine to ten because

426
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:26.039
we're going to have a new system, and to be honest with you,

427
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:30.440
it's going to be uncomfortable playing in
places you haven't played before. There might

428
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:32.599
be a few games where it's cold
as hell. You never know. I

429
00:28:32.599 --> 00:28:36.039
haven't looked particularly hard at the schedule. I do know we have one of

430
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:38.960
the easier schedule or more lenient schedules. But you still have a Kansas State,

431
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:41.920
you still have an Oklahoma State.
Well I don't even know if we

432
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:45.000
played Oklahoma State this year, but
you know, you still have a Utah

433
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:48.039
and a couple of these teams like
the Big Twelve. It's not like the

434
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:52.839
Big Ten or the SEC where you
have the top two or three that basically

435
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:56.160
finished first, second, and third
every year. I mean they're all over

436
00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:57.119
the place, you know, and
a few have Kansas that came out of

437
00:28:57.160 --> 00:29:00.680
nowhere. Oklahoma State is probably the
most consistent along with Kansas State. But

438
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:04.240
now you add Utah to the mix, so you never know. I'm going

439
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:07.480
nine to ten. I lean more
towards ten, just because I think our

440
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.079
offense is going to be so damn
good that's coming here, especially with some

441
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:12.920
of the additions in the portal.
But you know, I'm going to do

442
00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:17.440
nine to ten just to be safe. That's legit. He's over, He's

443
00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:19.519
going all over. Yeah, I
think that's the safest bet. That's how

444
00:29:19.559 --> 00:29:23.559
I would do it. When you
mentioned something about being uncomfortable, you know,

445
00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:29.319
going to places that you've not been
before. Is that from experience that

446
00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:32.480
you'd go to somewhere where you hadn't
played and it was kind of a little

447
00:29:32.480 --> 00:29:36.839
weird or what what? What's the
what's the thought on that? Well,

448
00:29:36.960 --> 00:29:41.119
you know, going up to you
know, Southern cal where a lot of

449
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:45.000
the kids are from and a lot
of kids watched games in the coliseum in

450
00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:47.359
U. C. L A.
Or going up to Orgon where a lot

451
00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:49.480
of the kids that you're playing with
they went on a visit or two there.

452
00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:52.799
You know, going to Utah you've
been there a couple of times.

453
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:56.440
Going to Boulder, you've been there
a couple of times. Like you know,

454
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.000
having a new conference and had everyone
gunning for the new guy. That's

455
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:03.039
it's just one of those things that
I take into account because you know,

456
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:04.119
I, like I said, I
haven't looked at the schedule, but there

457
00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:07.279
might be a couple of games where
it's going to be in the twenties or

458
00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:08.559
thirties next year, just because of
how it spread out. The Big Twelve

459
00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:12.480
is, especially with a lot of
these teams in the Midwest, you never

460
00:30:12.559 --> 00:30:15.759
know you might have snow. Well, you know, if you've been in

461
00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:18.279
Tucson for four or five years,
the only time you see snow is up

462
00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:22.200
in the mountains. So again,
it's just going to be a different atmosphere.

463
00:30:23.119 --> 00:30:26.519
And hey, you know, in
Big Twelve games, these guys actually

464
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:29.519
show up to the games. You're
not going to the Rose Bowl where you

465
00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:33.519
only have half the bowl full and
half of the people there are from the

466
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:37.400
other team. You just you have
no idea. That's the one thing I

467
00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:38.839
really really love about the Big Twelve
and the move there. You know,

468
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:42.039
people can say, oh, I'd
rather go to Pasadena over you know,

469
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:47.079
Ames or wherever the hell Iowa State
is. I forget it. But I

470
00:30:47.079 --> 00:30:49.920
mean, to be honest with you, the people at at Iowa State actually

471
00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:55.359
show up. They're going to make
that you know, stadium which might hold

472
00:30:55.559 --> 00:30:59.039
thirty to forty thousand less than the
Rose Bowl, They're going to make it

473
00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:02.759
louder. So it's just gonna be
a lot better of an atmosphere too.

474
00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:07.920
In fact, somebody posted something on
Twitter the top attendance for the Pack the

475
00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:11.200
Big Twelve this year with the basketball
teams, Arizona would be like fifth.

476
00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:18.079
Yeah, yeah, well you have
Texas Tech, and you know, you

477
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:23.960
have Iowa States obviously Kansas. I
mean, and they show up and it's

478
00:31:25.039 --> 00:31:27.160
loud. It is completely different.
It's not going to be shown up to

479
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:33.640
a half full stadium where you have
absolutely no energy like Stanford. Yeah,

480
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:37.640
I mean, find at Stanford even
when they had freaking Andrew Luck and we

481
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:40.920
were on CBS, they were half
full. Yeah, there were the number

482
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:45.240
you know four team in the nation. What is this? Yeh, Jake

483
00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:48.119
is always what's going on? And
thanks for being on the show. What

484
00:31:48.119 --> 00:31:51.880
do you got going well? Everybody
on this show knows what I do.

485
00:31:51.960 --> 00:31:55.680
We shop life insurance and health insurance. We have the best rates in Arizona

486
00:31:56.079 --> 00:32:00.000
where brokers. We're not beholding to
one company. We shop over thirty carriers

487
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:01.519
to life insurance. And then,
like I said, there are not a

488
00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:05.559
lot of great options in Arizona,
but there are a couple plans that really

489
00:32:05.599 --> 00:32:07.680
do solve a lot of problems.
Cut your preimans in half, no opation,

490

495
00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:34.039
I'm joy you weekend? All right? You two cool? Jake Jake Fisher,

496
00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:37.519
going back to a Richard said about
the Arizona scheduled football schedule, I'm

497
00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:39.440
looking at it right now. First
of all, four of the Arizona's last

498
00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:45.279
six games are at home. They
have They've got Colorado and West Virginia at

499
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:51.480
home starting in mid October. In
November, first week in November, they

500
00:32:51.480 --> 00:32:53.839
go to Central Florida, that's not
going to be sure cold, come home

501
00:32:53.880 --> 00:32:58.960
and play Houston. And then the
only game that you foresee could be where

502
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:02.359
weather it might be in they go
to They go to TCU, TCU and

503
00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:08.880
thanks on not thanks the weekend before
Thanksgiving. Then ASU here. So Richard

504
00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:13.160
is right. You know, they
played at b YU October twelve. Actually

505
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:16.200
the weather probably ought to be good
there. They play at Utah September twenty

506
00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:20.319
eighth, the weather should be good
there, and they play Kansas State September

507
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:22.519
thirteenth. So weather might not be
a factor. Other years that it will

508
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:25.319
be, but next year doesn't look
like that. Third game is that the

509
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:30.519
Kansas game, KNASIY game. Third
game, it's gonna be kind of diffy.

510
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:35.519
Yep, it'll be tough again.
Again. They got three straight games

511
00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:38.200
against teams that are that are predicted
to win over unders or eight and a

512
00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:40.680
half or more. Yeah, you
know something's got to give with that.

513
00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:44.680
Yeah, yeah, it'll be a
tough Go. Okay, let's go,

514
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:47.319
all right, let's take our last
break. We'll be back. Take take

561

fifteen. I'm Steve EJ said with
us for fifteen minutes. Tiger Woods just

562
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:15.960
get some So what's the deal there? He said, it was illless,

563
00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:20.239
he went through six holes and decided
enough to finish off his round. So

564
00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:23.599
he's out. The call it flew
like symptoms, fever, dizzy, dehydrated,

565
00:37:23.719 --> 00:37:27.840
some type of flu. Says it's
not physical, that all in his

566
00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:31.119
back is fine, okay, whatever
that means, but the bottom line is

567
00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:34.159
he's not playing, yeah, because
I do know at the end of his

568
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:37.320
he said, I guess he I
guess he had a really bad shank at

569
00:37:37.320 --> 00:37:39.679
the end of his round yesterday.
And he said it just his backet tightened

570
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:43.119
up at the end of the round
and it was just a swing that he

571
00:37:43.159 --> 00:37:45.760
didn't come through on it or whatever, and he shanked the shot, which

572
00:37:46.239 --> 00:37:51.000
to see, you know, if
you just don't hear shank and Tiger Woods

573
00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:54.880
in the same right, in the
same breath. But you know, if

574
00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:59.880
look everybody, it's been that time
here, everybody's been getting sick. I

575
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:02.679
don't know how many people I knew
who you know who had this crud that

576
00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:07.119
we all had coffee, right,
I ended up I ended up with bronchitis,

577
00:38:07.199 --> 00:38:09.760
My wife ended up with broncrackkitas,
and then my son ended up with

578
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:14.760
bronchitis. So it was kind of
like damn and you know anything that that

579
00:38:14.920 --> 00:38:20.199
was all that contagious. But had
you been following the story Scott Pollard,

580
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:27.599
you know what I'm talking about Scott
kansask He he's was near death. I

581
00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:30.320
don't know if it's near death,
but he needed a heart transplant. I

582
00:38:30.320 --> 00:38:34.519
guess it's goes and runs in his
family and he uh, there's a big

583
00:38:34.519 --> 00:38:37.559
story about maybe a month ago.
Well he's found a transplant. Wow.

584
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:40.000
I wasn't say because I was drinking
tim that he had passed. No,

585
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:43.920
no, he's he's gonna get a
transplant. You remember he was the guy

586
00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:46.280
part of the Kansas team that Arizona
beate in ninety seven. Yeah, yeah,

587
00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:49.559

Hey, what's going on, guys? Vi? Vic? What's going on?

595
00:39:20.440 --> 00:39:23.079
Well, you just mentioned Tiger Woods. I've got to ask you,

596
00:39:25.000 --> 00:39:29.519
when is golf gonna move on from
this guy? That's a good question.

597
00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:32.880
When he doesn't move the needle anymore, so irrelevant, it's pathetic. I

598
00:39:32.880 --> 00:39:38.599
mean, boxing moved on from Ali, from Leonard to do the stars.

599
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:43.960
Uh, this'd be like if Joe
Montana came back and tried to quarterback right

600
00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:47.239
now. I think it's more about
the fans that he still moves the needle

601
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:51.000
for and Vic, I'm gonna tell
you I'm one of them. I still

602
00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:54.400
love watching Why Jay Why because he
was so damn good and you want it.

603
00:39:54.480 --> 00:39:57.840
You still want to see him do
it one more time, that's all.

604
00:39:57.880 --> 00:40:00.440
I want to see him do it
one more time. So if you

605
00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:04.679
want to see Ali come back and
fight again, that's that's different, maps

606
00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:07.320
because all he getting punched in the
face by somebody who can kick his ass,

607
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:09.760
which they could kill him. You
know, golf, you know you

608
00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:13.840
can play golf until you're old.
I mean, Phil Mickelson won a tournament

609
00:40:13.880 --> 00:40:16.360
at fifty, so I know I
don't have a problem with him continuing to

610
00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:21.840
play, and I still like to
watch him play. I don't know.

611
00:40:21.880 --> 00:40:23.960
I'm not a golfer, so I
guess I don't understand, and I don't

612
00:40:24.039 --> 00:40:30.960
really enjoy anything. But I just
don't understand how they can't find a new

613
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:34.800
guy to later had on. Oh, there's plenty of you guys to be

614
00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:37.280
fair, always been gone a while, so she's coming back. But see,

615
00:40:37.280 --> 00:40:39.679
that's the thing about golf, though, victors. I mean, there

616
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:42.920
are a bunch of new guys,
and those are the guys that you say

617
00:40:42.920 --> 00:40:45.840
are really damn good. But you
know, Tiger Woods gets on the golf

618
00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:50.320
course and people still watch and and
you know, and if he's if he

619
00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:52.920
competes, he competes, and if
he doesn't, then then he doesn't.

620
00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:54.960
But he's still he still moves the
needle. That's all. That's all I

621
00:40:55.000 --> 00:40:59.199
can say it, you know,
And to me, it's like I just

622
00:40:59.239 --> 00:41:00.159
want to see him do this one. I want to see him win one

623
00:41:00.159 --> 00:41:04.000
more major, whether or not I
think he can is another one, and

624
00:41:04.039 --> 00:41:07.480
it's almost like he's so bad that
if he wins one, it's gonna be

625
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:12.880
it's gonna be spectacular. I guess
I don't know, but I did want

626
00:41:12.920 --> 00:41:16.599
to say one more thing. You
guys were talking about high school rivalries,

627
00:41:16.599 --> 00:41:21.960
and I went to Span High and
obviously that was a big time when I

628
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:25.599
was growing up. I mean Friday
night life, my dad took us the

629
00:41:25.639 --> 00:41:31.840
game. But in California, where
you guys know I've lived the last forty

630
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:37.199
five years, high school rivalries are
amazing. I mean, you have the

631
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:40.559
big ones like modern day Bosco,
right, but I also have like my

632
00:41:40.679 --> 00:41:45.840
kids went to your high school and
they played Montabello and it's an inner city.

633
00:41:45.320 --> 00:41:50.599
It's played on Pop Warner and honestly, you guys, it's like death

634
00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:55.239
to lose that game. My daughters
played softball and they lost to Montabello and

635
00:41:55.320 --> 00:42:00.679
it was crying for three days.
I mean, the rivalries in California,

636
00:42:00.760 --> 00:42:07.800
and I'm assuming Texas. Yeah,
in California, it's amazing. Juice on

637
00:42:07.880 --> 00:42:14.719
Football doesn't know anything like what a
rivalry is in California any sephies this weekend

638
00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:20.400
with the sporting events I did,
I went to the Arizona against Long Beach

639
00:42:20.440 --> 00:42:23.679
and uh Long beach had a couple
of girls and my daughter coached and uh

640
00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:28.079
got to be good friends with them
and the family. So, uh,

641
00:42:28.199 --> 00:42:35.079
yesterday I posted a soufie with two
girls and they're amazing young women. Just

642
00:42:35.119 --> 00:42:37.960
so you know, we'll never forget
what you look like because of your selfies.

643
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:44.719
Okay, you guys, bear down
both at good to talk to you.

644
00:42:45.039 --> 00:42:47.280
It's funny because I hear what Vick
is saying. You know, there

645
00:42:47.320 --> 00:42:52.239
comes a time when somebody's just not
good anymore. Sure, sure it's I

646
00:42:52.280 --> 00:42:53.800
think golf is just different as far
as that goes, right, I mean,

647
00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:57.320
Tom Brady, at some point you
need to retire. Uh you know

648
00:42:57.360 --> 00:43:00.360
basketball players, you know Michael Jordan, you know, you know't have it

649
00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:02.639
anymore. Stop. But well that's
the whole thing. And you know this

650
00:43:02.920 --> 00:43:07.039
the end game? Yeah, well
when is the end game? And some

651
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:08.719
people just don't prepare for it.
And look for me, like, I

652
00:43:08.800 --> 00:43:14.679
know that on a day that it
all comes together, I can shoot a

653
00:43:14.760 --> 00:43:16.840
seventy nine and I would go crazy, But most of the time I'm going

654
00:43:16.920 --> 00:43:21.119
to shoot ninety two, right,
And you go out there with the hope

655
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:23.199
that on that one day it all
comes together. I still feel like it

656
00:43:23.239 --> 00:43:27.599
can or I can shoot low eighties. And so golf is different in the

657
00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:30.719
as far as that goes, and
guys who are in their fifties can't compete,

658
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:31.719
you know, Phil Mickelson, and
you know, as much as that

659
00:43:31.840 --> 00:43:36.639
we don't like him, is still
competitive on the golf course. Now he's

660
00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:40.400
not Rory McElroy. He's not Justin
Thomas, he's not you know, Jordan's

661
00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:44.880
speed. But he can still on
a given day or on a given weekend,

662
00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:46.519
go out and compete. And I
think, you know, Tiger feels

663
00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:50.280
like he can too. And I
kind of believe him when he says,

664
00:43:50.320 --> 00:43:52.360
if I didn't think I could win, I wouldn't be out there. He

665
00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:57.079
wouldn't do that. But he knows
also either he's got the gas that he's

666
00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:00.119
that he's the guy. Yeah,
you know, he's guy. We'll look

667
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:05.280
around, don't look too long because
his son, who's howled twelve is like

668
00:44:05.440 --> 00:44:10.000
fourteen. Well, he's commons common. I don't know if you saw Tiger

669
00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:13.840
Woods has a new clothing line.
No, no, no clothing line,

670
00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:16.519
new logo. It's a tailor made. It's got a new logo that looks

671
00:44:16.599 --> 00:44:21.000
kind of like a Tiger. He
was wearing that. You know, he's

672
00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:23.199
been wearing at this golf term and
they just they're not you can't buy it

673
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:28.840
yet, but they've shown it,
so I expect you to be wearing that

674
00:44:28.880 --> 00:44:31.159
suit. No, I've never worn
any of his but you, but you've

675
00:44:31.199 --> 00:44:35.960
used his equipment. Well, I
used Nike. I had Nike golf clubs

676
00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:38.639
for a while that they weren't Tiger
Woods Nikes. They were just Nike golf

677
00:44:38.639 --> 00:44:42.199
clubs. Can I use Nike golf
ball? Oh? I thought you We

678
00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:45.320
talked about that. I'm I'm more
of a Nike person than the Tiger Woods

679
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:46.760
person. Do you see that they're
gonna be laying off a lot of people

680
00:44:46.760 --> 00:44:52.039
this year? They're in trouble twelve
everyone who's not in trouble. Yeah.

681
00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:55.840
I worked there for a little bit
at the store at one of the the

682
00:44:55.840 --> 00:45:00.840
Phoenix Phoenix up there. Yeah,
no, suppose you discount go back?

683
00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:05.880
It was uh, well, I
would say it was fifty everything online anything,

684
00:45:06.079 --> 00:45:08.719
anything, it was. It was
good. You spend all your paychecks

685
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:12.599
there. Yeah, they get you, they get you, they get it

686
00:45:12.639 --> 00:45:16.000
back. Yeah. Yeah cool on
stuff that they don't really want. Yeah,

687
00:45:16.039 --> 00:45:21.280
yeah, I can't. I think
I've only I've been to the you

688
00:45:21.280 --> 00:45:23.119
know, I go to the night. Anytime I'm somewhere that a Nike store

689
00:45:23.199 --> 00:45:29.000
is convenient, I go. And
I think I've only ever bought myself one

690
00:45:29.039 --> 00:45:30.000
thing at a Nike store, and
that was a golf ship that I got

691
00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:36.280
one time. But you know it's
it's I've been a Nike guy for for

692
00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:40.039
a really long time. Continue to
be just another thing. Robert Horry's son,

693
00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:45.360
right is going to UCLA. How
are you doing? How's he getting

694
00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:50.519
these guys? Man? Don't don't
you see? Well we see he yells

695
00:45:50.559 --> 00:45:57.119
at me, he belittles me,
little me. I said, no,

696
00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:02.920
Well, we're talking giving updates on
on on events. Uh. Arizona men's

697
00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:07.679
tennis leads uh leads Texas to zip
right now in their in their match.

698
00:46:07.920 --> 00:46:13.159
But I think Texas is really damn
good. I think they're ranked yeah,

699
00:46:13.159 --> 00:46:15.840
big twelve. I think softball or
tennis wise is pretty good. They're pretty

700
00:46:15.840 --> 00:46:22.000
tough. Yeah. I don't think
there's much of anything else going on.

701
00:46:22.199 --> 00:46:24.280
So we'll see you at the game
tomorrow, right right, uh seven thirty?

702
00:46:24.559 --> 00:46:28.599
Uh, you know, you know
what we need to talk about the

703
00:46:28.639 --> 00:46:31.400
final four stuff that's coming there to
mchall oh yes, let me dig that

704
00:46:31.519 --> 00:46:35.280
up. By the way, Tenant, Texas is ranked third in the country.

705
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:39.039
Okay, so there's huge there's something
that it's the kind of fine uh

706
00:46:39.559 --> 00:46:45.119
Final four showdown shootout. Uh so
bringing some fan jam? Yeah, that's

707
00:46:45.159 --> 00:46:49.599
right. Is the fanjam, it
says. The Fanjam is is an event

708
00:46:49.639 --> 00:46:52.960
where you know, fans can come
and you know, practice their shots.

709
00:46:52.000 --> 00:46:55.360
There's giveaways, all of that kind
of stuff. It's a touring thing and

710
00:46:55.400 --> 00:47:00.559
it's going to be at UH at
McHale tomorrow from thirty to seven thirty before

711
00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:06.000
the game. So you can go
there at Michale and you can take some

712
00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:09.320
shots, you can take some pictures. They're inviting they're inviting the media to

713
00:47:09.360 --> 00:47:13.199
go out there and take some shots. And I'm like, I don't think

714
00:47:13.199 --> 00:47:17.079
I can reach a three pointer anymore. But our girl j Perry Jay Thearry

715
00:47:17.119 --> 00:47:20.280
will be there. Yeah, we
thought you have her on the show one

716
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:22.800
more time before, but she's the
CEO of the local Organizing Committee. But

717
00:47:22.880 --> 00:47:27.880
that's the thing. It starts at
five point thirty at Michale tomorrow if you

718
00:47:27.880 --> 00:47:30.000
want to go over there and hang
out. So if you're taking kids,

719
00:47:30.039 --> 00:47:31.960
if you're taking kids to the game. I'd be perfect for them to enjoy

720
00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:37.599
the couple of hours torint get out
there and and shoot your shot man future

721
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:40.400
shot. So there you go.
Just any uh, And it's kind of

722
00:47:40.440 --> 00:47:43.719
cool that they're doing this, you
know, around the state and trying to

723
00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:46.480
get fans involved. I mean Final
four is a big deal. Sure,

724
00:47:46.519 --> 00:47:50.599
it's hard to get tickets, and
they're expensive and all those things. Well,

725
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:52.599
a friend of my last I said
he got three or four. I

726
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:59.639
think four of them. I guess
how much the cost. I'm gonna go

727
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:05.280
three fifty a piece, seven fifty
a piece. Seven fifty rouch is right.

728
00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:08.559
Yeah, that's if you don't win
the lottery, right, if you

729
00:48:08.559 --> 00:48:12.440
didn't have to win the lottery that
they do before they you know, at

730
00:48:12.480 --> 00:48:15.880
the end of last year. So
yeah, I didn't realize you were selling

731
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:19.039
them to the regular general public store. I thought they were kind only stopped

732
00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:22.840
that in there. Yeah, but
they are, but they are. Wow,

733
00:48:22.519 --> 00:48:25.039
wow, seven fifty would you you
wouldn't pay it? I know you

734
00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:29.119
wouldn't pay it. No, I
might. I'd pay if Arizona was in

735
00:48:29.199 --> 00:48:30.800
it, but I wouldn't pay it
just to because your limit. Well you

736
00:48:30.840 --> 00:48:34.199
said that if it was a team
that you cared about, right, if

737
00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:37.480
it was Arizona, if I if
I'm yeah, I mean I think we

738
00:48:37.559 --> 00:48:40.960
paid that back in ninety seven.
Well do it? Well, what I

739
00:48:42.000 --> 00:48:47.400
recall that we paid fifteen hundred bucks
for flight hotel in a ticket. Yeah,

740
