23
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:13.120
<v Speaker 3>see you in town. You know who is still in town?

24
00:01:13.959 --> 00:01:17.760
<v Speaker 3>U A baseball? They never left. They kind of left

25
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:20.040
<v Speaker 3>their game here, didn't they. You know, I didn't watch

26
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:22.400
<v Speaker 3>any of it. I just kept in tune with the score.

27
00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:25.959
<v Speaker 4>Holy crap, Well I saw it all and tell me

28
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.200
<v Speaker 4>and look, it was one of those games where it

29
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.760
<v Speaker 4>got away early. And look, you've played enough baseball. I

30
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 4>played enough baseball.

31
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:34.959
<v Speaker 3>Ray.

32
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:36.319
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if you were a baseball player, but

33
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:42.120
<v Speaker 4>you games like this happened. You know, North Carolina isn't

34
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:45.680
<v Speaker 4>eighteen runs better than Arizona. You know, they may be better,

35
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:47.920
<v Speaker 4>but they're not eighteen runs better. And tomorrow could be

36
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.280
<v Speaker 4>a completely different day. We've seen that, you know. I mean,

37
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:55.480
<v Speaker 4>look Arizona just last week they beat They opened with

38
00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:57.959
<v Speaker 4>cal Poly, beat him three to two, got two hits,

39
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.840
<v Speaker 4>didn't get a hit after the second any and then

40
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 4>they scored eighteen and fourteen the next two games. So

41
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:06.840
<v Speaker 4>baseball is a game like that. It's not like basketball

42
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:08.879
<v Speaker 4>where if somebody's really better than you, they're just gonna

43
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:12.919
<v Speaker 4>beat you every time on a given day. Baseball can

44
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:17.599
<v Speaker 4>it just it flabbergasts you because a game like this

45
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.879
<v Speaker 4>can happen and you can come back and win the

46
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:21.319
<v Speaker 4>next day.

47
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.159
<v Speaker 2>And the good thing for them, it's a series, not

48
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:24.240
<v Speaker 2>a one gamer.

49
00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:26.479
<v Speaker 4>Right, And you know, and you listen to what Chip

50
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:27.919
<v Speaker 4>Hale said, he said, just flush this one.

51
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:29.199
<v Speaker 2>It's over with you.

52
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.840
<v Speaker 4>You know that in the later stages of the game,

53
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:34.680
<v Speaker 4>he wasn't putting out guys from the bullpen who he's

54
00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:37.560
<v Speaker 4>gonna need later this week, and those kinds of things

55
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:38.199
<v Speaker 4>when it comes up.

56
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:39.319
<v Speaker 2>I mean when it.

57
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:42.319
<v Speaker 4>Was when it was five to one, I'm like, you know,

58
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:43.479
<v Speaker 4>they can still win this game.

59
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:45.639
<v Speaker 2>Even when it was eight to one or eight to two.

60
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:48.000
<v Speaker 4>I thought, you know, they loaded the base once they said,

61
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:49.639
<v Speaker 4>you know, somebody gets a hit here. Now this it's

62
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:53.280
<v Speaker 4>a whole different thing. But it didn't happen. North Carolina

63
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:56.240
<v Speaker 4>State kept hitting the ball. Arizona guy, you know, got

64
00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:59.199
<v Speaker 4>some good swings, just didn't get balls that hit the ground.

65
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:03.120
<v Speaker 4>And those those games happen. So you know, you just

66
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.319
<v Speaker 4>as you said, you flush it and you go on

67
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 4>to the next one. You know that tomorrow can be

68
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:09.439
<v Speaker 4>a completely different day if your pitcher has a good game.

69
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:13.560
<v Speaker 4>What time tomorrow, same time? Okay, Yeah, maybe they were

70
00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:15.639
<v Speaker 4>just wroking up at that. Who knows, you know, I

71
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 4>mean Crampkowski came out and I could have hit him today,

72
00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:20.680
<v Speaker 4>you know, I you know I couldn't. I don't know

73
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:22.360
<v Speaker 4>if I'd have taken him deep, but I could have

74
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:24.719
<v Speaker 4>hit him because he was Everything that he threw was up.

75
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:33.000
<v Speaker 4>He was throwing the ball where guys swing.

76
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:33.000
<v Speaker 5>The was and and for how good you n cee

77
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:35.520
<v Speaker 5>Like everybody talked about how good UNC's pitcher was, like

78
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:37.680
<v Speaker 5>the whole broadcast. I mean to get ten hits like

79
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:39.560
<v Speaker 5>they didn't like they didn't they didn't show up on

80
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:41.719
<v Speaker 5>the scoreboard, but you can tell that they were like

81
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:43.360
<v Speaker 5>I wouldn't say getting to him, but like.

82
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:45.319
<v Speaker 4>You know, they got their swings and they hit the

83
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:48.000
<v Speaker 4>ball hard a bunch of times. They had opportunities to

84
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:50.080
<v Speaker 4>score some runs and stay in the game and then

85
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:53.080
<v Speaker 4>got away, and so you put it away, you go

86
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.719
<v Speaker 4>to the next one. You know, my oplon was okay,

87
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:59.120
<v Speaker 4>Arizona's trying really hard to give North Carolina believe that

88
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:00.479
<v Speaker 4>they can do this to all the pictures and then

89
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:03.080
<v Speaker 4>you're gonna throw somebody at him. Tomorrow's gonna make them cry.

90
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:07.159
<v Speaker 4>So we'll see who said I get it was my

91
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:11.639
<v Speaker 4>piece of what did you become an optimist? Because see, Steve,

92
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:12.599
<v Speaker 4>baseball is like that.

93
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.719
<v Speaker 3>No I understand any given day, and if you play

94
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:17.879
<v Speaker 3>like crap one day doesn't mean you'll pay a crap

95
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:18.240
<v Speaker 3>like that.

96
00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:21.120
<v Speaker 4>I mean, if you get beat by forty in basketball

97
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:23.920
<v Speaker 4>or football, you kind of think that that team can

98
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:26.759
<v Speaker 4>do that again to you in baseball, you think we

99
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:28.519
<v Speaker 4>should come back and do the same thing to them.

100
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:29.120
<v Speaker 2>If if the.

101
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 4>Picture, if their picture has a bad day, our picture

102
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:33.360
<v Speaker 4>has a good day, we hit the ball. You know,

103
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 4>any thinking happened. You know, I'll go back to my

104
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 4>coaching days. In a matter of a couple of hours.

105
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:41.279
<v Speaker 4>Right at Saint Gregory, we beat the number one team

106
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:43.079
<v Speaker 4>in the state in the first game of a double header,

107
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:44.800
<v Speaker 4>and they run ruled us in the second game.

108
00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:47.319
<v Speaker 3>Well, the good thing is, I dare I say it,

109
00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:53.519
<v Speaker 3>North Carolina has momentum the way that I pull the

110
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:57.240
<v Speaker 3>c Yeah, I haven't had our times to say that.

111
00:04:57.800 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 2>You know, we'll see. Look, you go to the next

112
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.399
<v Speaker 2>game and you come out and have your choice right there.

113
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:04.680
<v Speaker 2>You have to regroup. Arizona has got good players.

114
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:07.639
<v Speaker 4>They've got good they They certainly showed that they could

115
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:10.000
<v Speaker 4>hit a good picture because they they banged him around

116
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:12.600
<v Speaker 4>a little bits, as Ray said it, you know, didn't

117
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:14.319
<v Speaker 4>show up in the scoreboard. They hit him hard a

118
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:17.120
<v Speaker 4>bunch of times. So you know they're gonna get They're

119
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:18.800
<v Speaker 4>gonna get theirs. And this guy was you know, this

120
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:21.839
<v Speaker 4>guy pitched well, he pitched well enough and put it

121
00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:24.759
<v Speaker 4>this way. He had a five run, four run lead

122
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:26.720
<v Speaker 4>when he went out to the mound for the second Indian,

123
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:29.759
<v Speaker 4>and so he got comfortable and and a pitcher can

124
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:31.279
<v Speaker 4>be way better when they do that.

125
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, no, let's just see what happens tomorrow.

126
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:36.000
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I'll check you back with you on one day. Yeah,

127
00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:39.079
<v Speaker 3>you'll see what the hell? Okay, no, no, that's cool. Hey,

128
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:41.480
<v Speaker 3>a good show today. We're gonna talk about the Belmont tomorrow.

129
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:43.360
<v Speaker 3>For tomorrows Belmont at Saratoga.

130
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 2>You know he's got to step up.

131
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:44.680
<v Speaker 4>Man.

132
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:46.720
<v Speaker 2>She gave us the winner last time and need another one.

133
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's the same winner for me, and.

134
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:49.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna do the same thing.

135
00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:49.560
<v Speaker 3>Man.

136
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:53.160
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna go golfing, send a race home, catch the race,

137
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:56.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, throw something down and then watch the races.

138
00:05:56.040 --> 00:05:59.279
<v Speaker 3>Okay, yeah, yeah, so I'm going the same thing, having

139
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:00.360
<v Speaker 3>her a three seventeen.

140
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:01.000
<v Speaker 6>Uh.

141
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:03.720
<v Speaker 3>The Belmont is gonna be run at Saratoga. It's gonna

142
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:03.879
<v Speaker 3>be a.

143
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Little different mile and a half race though.

144
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:08.399
<v Speaker 4>No, they moved it to a mile and a quarter. Okay,

145
00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:09.920
<v Speaker 4>so it's not even a mile and a half race.

146
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:14.399
<v Speaker 4>That's a that's a big difference. That changes, right, changes

147
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:17.079
<v Speaker 4>things in terms of the type of horse that can

148
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:17.800
<v Speaker 4>win the race.

149
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:20.839
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's there's only seven or eight horses now, not

150
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:24.399
<v Speaker 3>like twenty when they were. But yes and no, but

151
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:29.160
<v Speaker 3>remember that Sovereigntine didn't run in the weakness. Uh, journalism did.

152
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:31.279
<v Speaker 3>It's gonna be wet. I hear it's gonna be wet,

153
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:35.319
<v Speaker 3>so like like the first scenario when sovereignty beat journalism.

154
00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:39.079
<v Speaker 3>So we'll see to your point, yes, it's totally different,

155
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:42.040
<v Speaker 3>given that they had to go small long, and then

156
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:43.480
<v Speaker 3>they're gonna go short again.

157
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.319
<v Speaker 2>So we'll see sovereignty is actually in third.

158
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:52.800
<v Speaker 5>Horse Racing Nation dot com it's journalism besa sovereignty.

159
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:54.319
<v Speaker 3>And then that with the odds are just the pics

160
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:58.160
<v Speaker 3>uh the pics uh, because I'm sure it's it's journalism,

161
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:00.079
<v Speaker 3>journalism sovereignty and then.

162
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:04.480
<v Speaker 5>Besa no basis In second, what's the odds for to

163
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.920
<v Speaker 5>one and the sovereignty?

164
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh I think never mind.

165
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:10.240
<v Speaker 5>I think that's just like the number or like the

166
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:12.160
<v Speaker 5>way that they're running them, because it says sovereignty is

167
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:12.680
<v Speaker 5>two to one.

168
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:15.040
<v Speaker 2>Journalisms eight to five and then one.

169
00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:18.240
<v Speaker 3>Right, so it's yeah, their third basis third Segntines two.

170
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:23.959
<v Speaker 2>Oh, it's base valley right right, Okay, it's gonna be fun.

171
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Should be fun.

172
00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:27.240
<v Speaker 3>And then at four fifteen we're gonna have Bruce Pasco.

173
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:29.240
<v Speaker 3>We've been trying to give him on. He's been real busy.

174
00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:31.959
<v Speaker 3>He had something end today. But just the roster and

175
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:35.199
<v Speaker 3>how it looks. I had heard just today in fact,

176
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:41.600
<v Speaker 3>that because the president situation Jay and Ray is that

177
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.000
<v Speaker 3>maybe a player or two might have a tart time

178
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 3>getting through.

179
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.079
<v Speaker 4>Wow, you never know, yeah, you know I read that,

180
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:51.319
<v Speaker 4>you know, uh, soccer fans, and maybe some players may

181
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:54.160
<v Speaker 4>have trouble getting getting here for the World Cup under

182
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:56.720
<v Speaker 4>what this damn country is doing.

183
00:07:56.959 --> 00:07:57.519
<v Speaker 2>Don't get me.

184
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:02.079
<v Speaker 3>Started, you don't you you start yourself yourself because we

185
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:05.480
<v Speaker 3>won't go there. Yeah, so it's a crazy time. We'll

186
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:08.319
<v Speaker 3>see what he thinks about the possibility. Because there's so

187
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:11.040
<v Speaker 3>many on the team, right, so many international players, so

188
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:12.480
<v Speaker 3>it's freshmen to boot.

189
00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:14.839
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and it might it might come up even earlier

190
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:17.600
<v Speaker 5>because of the club World Cup that's happening, so like

191
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:20.199
<v Speaker 5>the Nation's World Cup, like the big one. Obviously that

192
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:23.000
<v Speaker 5>happens every four years, but the year before they do

193
00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:24.800
<v Speaker 5>a Club World Cup where it's like all the big

194
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.879
<v Speaker 5>name teams like Madrid, I think Liverpool's coming, Chelsea, Barcelona,

195
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.079
<v Speaker 5>like they're all going to be in the US.

196
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:32.120
<v Speaker 2>But obviously they have a.

197
00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 5>Bunch of foreign players, so I could could run into

198
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:36.039
<v Speaker 5>that issue a little earlier.

199
00:08:36.200 --> 00:08:38.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so we'll talk to him about that. The draft

200
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:41.440
<v Speaker 3>is warted two three weeks, we'll talk a little about

201
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:44.159
<v Speaker 3>that too, And where they're placed in the top twenty five.

202
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:45.759
<v Speaker 3>They're still in the top twenty five and a number

203
00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:48.320
<v Speaker 3>of well all of them except that you vary from

204
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:52.360
<v Speaker 3>eleven to nineteen to fourteen, winevers and we talked about this.

205
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:56.519
<v Speaker 3>I had Pete on Pete Williams yesterday, Jay, and everyone's

206
00:08:56.519 --> 00:08:58.600
<v Speaker 3>in love with this roster, right, Well, okay, you lose

207
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:01.879
<v Speaker 3>Bryant that you get these freshman that are fantastic and

208
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:07.399
<v Speaker 3>still Arizona's like ranked eighteen seventy good but some other teams. Yeah, yeah,

209
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:09.600
<v Speaker 3>you don't know, you don't, Yeah, you don't know right now,

210
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:12.480
<v Speaker 3>But don't get too carried away because it's always When

211
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:13.879
<v Speaker 3>was the last time we said Arizona was not going

212
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:16.559
<v Speaker 3>to be any good never, right, never. It's just the

213
00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:19.039
<v Speaker 3>quality of how good they're going to be.

214
00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:20.279
<v Speaker 2>More than ever. You don't know.

215
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:22.159
<v Speaker 4>Just like in football, you don't know until you get

216
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:23.960
<v Speaker 4>your guys on the court, because you have so many

217
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:27.039
<v Speaker 4>new guys. I mean, you may have a great roster

218
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:29.080
<v Speaker 4>and if they can't play together, well, what the hell

219
00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:29.600
<v Speaker 4>good does it do?

220
00:09:29.639 --> 00:09:33.799
<v Speaker 2>When did you know how good Arizona was this year? March? Yeah, March,

221
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:35.960
<v Speaker 2>late February.

222
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:39.200
<v Speaker 3>Early March, right, I mean because you wondered in December. Yeah,

223
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:41.039
<v Speaker 3>you didn't know what you had in January, and then

224
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:42.120
<v Speaker 3>they sorted kind of in March.

225
00:09:42.120 --> 00:09:42.919
<v Speaker 2>You're thinking, oh.

226
00:09:42.799 --> 00:09:45.000
<v Speaker 4>Wow, you know, and people assumed that because Tommy in

227
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:47.879
<v Speaker 4>his first three years, you know, his teams came out

228
00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:51.360
<v Speaker 4>of the box, you know, kicking ass and stuff like that,

229
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:55.799
<v Speaker 4>and he got them to meld, you know, during preseason

230
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:56.720
<v Speaker 4>and they were ready to go.

231
00:09:57.240 --> 00:09:58.159
<v Speaker 2>This last year, it.

232
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:00.399
<v Speaker 4>Took a while. It took quite a while. I mean

233
00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:02.840
<v Speaker 4>we were talking in December like are they even going

234
00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:06.679
<v Speaker 4>to make the tournament? And so yeah, I mean anymore,

235
00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:08.799
<v Speaker 4>you just don't know until you get these guys on

236
00:10:08.840 --> 00:10:11.240
<v Speaker 4>the court. And it's new guys, a whole bunch of

237
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:14.639
<v Speaker 4>new guys every year. The only thing I'll say to that, though,

238
00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:18.519
<v Speaker 4>is that when you've got a three year starter at

239
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:24.039
<v Speaker 4>point guards, that helps a lot, especially when you you know,

240
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.080
<v Speaker 4>that helps a lot to get these guys to play

241
00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:30.879
<v Speaker 4>a little more cohesively, or it should, let me put

242
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:33.120
<v Speaker 4>it that way, it should. You would think it would

243
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:36.840
<v Speaker 4>when you've got a veteran guy in charge.

244
00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:39.440
<v Speaker 2>On the court. Yep, everything just still place.

245
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:42.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but I'll say that that won't be a weakness

246
00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:45.480
<v Speaker 4>because we didn't know about Jaydon Bradley when he got here, right,

247
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:48.600
<v Speaker 4>and then last year he was doing some better things,

248
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:50.120
<v Speaker 4>but still doing some things. And I know you in

249
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:54.279
<v Speaker 4>particular Downhill the whole I'm going in the lane and

250
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:57.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm not coming out kind of thing. But he's got

251
00:10:57.960 --> 00:10:59.919
<v Speaker 4>ar under his belt, and now let's say he progresses

252
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:02.799
<v Speaker 4>even another year. Now he's in a position where he

253
00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:05.480
<v Speaker 4>can make this team better just by being on the court.

254
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:08.120
<v Speaker 3>Right, And I think things will change because Caleb has

255
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:11.360
<v Speaker 3>gone the ball beheadled differently and and the freshmen are

256
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:14.399
<v Speaker 3>going to be fantastic. Walk is back in Creavus will

257
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:17.080
<v Speaker 3>see how healthy is. So you know what, Like I said,

258
00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:18.720
<v Speaker 3>I've been doing this long time you've seen it a

259
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:20.440
<v Speaker 3>long time. When the last time you say they're not

260
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.320
<v Speaker 3>going to be in a good it's been forever. Well,

261
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:23.639
<v Speaker 3>you know you you mentioned a walker.

262
00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.600
<v Speaker 4>Uh you know, I from from day one, I wasn't

263
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:29.360
<v Speaker 4>like sold on him as a I mean, he's a

264
00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:33.200
<v Speaker 4>bruiser inside, gets a lot of rebounds, very physical, but

265
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:36.039
<v Speaker 4>he also you know, he needs he needs to score,

266
00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:38.919
<v Speaker 4>score something, to throw the ball in there and score

267
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:41.960
<v Speaker 4>and two on two weeks ago. And again there's another

268
00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:46.200
<v Speaker 4>guy who has a year here under his belt working

269
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 4>with Jade and Bradley. Because when you're a center, when

270
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:51.960
<v Speaker 4>a center or a big guy and a point guard

271
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:54.639
<v Speaker 4>are in sync, you're a lot better.

272
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:56.759
<v Speaker 2>And that makes you wing guys a lot better.

273
00:11:56.840 --> 00:11:58.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean that, you know, there's a whole idea of

274
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:01.240
<v Speaker 4>you know, point guards need to know how to get

275
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:03.159
<v Speaker 4>the ball inside. You need to know how to make

276
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 4>a good a good entry pass, and those kinds of things.

277
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:08.200
<v Speaker 4>And when you've got two guys who've been doing it

278
00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:11.320
<v Speaker 4>together for a while, that helps a lot too. So

279
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:14.200
<v Speaker 4>there's a lot of things like that that are aside

280
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:17.519
<v Speaker 4>from the new guys coming in that you think can

281
00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:18.399
<v Speaker 4>help them be better.

282
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:20.320
<v Speaker 2>I like your Bruce's.

283
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:21.639
<v Speaker 3>Thoughts on all Yeah, we'll see how they all fit

00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:23.679

<v Speaker 3>Steve Rivera here to talk about Dorato Rock Materials. I

307
00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:32.440
<v Speaker 3>needed a lot of gravel for my driveway, so I

308
00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:34.879
<v Speaker 3>called Eric at Dorato Rock. He found out the amount

309
00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:37.279
<v Speaker 3>and color I needed and boom, it was taken care

310
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:39.240
<v Speaker 3>of and at a great price. How do I know

<v Speaker 16>This is really exciting.

417
00:18:54.519 --> 00:18:55.559
<v Speaker 15>So I get to actually watch the.

418
00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:57.279
<v Speaker 16>Belmont with my dad, so we.

419
00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:59.359
<v Speaker 17>Won't be doing phone tag before.

420
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:01.920
<v Speaker 3>The race and after the Yeah nice nice, okay, cool

421
00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:04.079
<v Speaker 3>cool cool. So now now let's get to the bill

422
00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:06.680
<v Speaker 3>nod there's anything today? Is there anything going on today?

423
00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:07.799
<v Speaker 3>I didn't pay attention.

424
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

425
00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:11.559
<v Speaker 15>So the Saratoga Belmont Week racing festival has been going

426
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:15.960
<v Speaker 15>on since Wednesday. The Acorn ran just about fifteen minutes ago.

427
00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:19.279
<v Speaker 15>We did see a seven to one upset over the one.

428
00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:19.920
<v Speaker 16>To four favorite.

429
00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:22.920
<v Speaker 15>The favorite was Good Cheer, who was your Kentucky Oaks winner.

430
00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:25.319
<v Speaker 15>She went off at about one to four odds. The

431
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:28.200
<v Speaker 15>track right now is extremely sloppy. It is a steeled track.

432
00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:29.920
<v Speaker 15>There has been quite a bit of weather coming in

433
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:32.160
<v Speaker 15>today and so that has definitely affected how I look

434
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:34.359
<v Speaker 15>at the races to tomorrow because this track does not

435
00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:37.279
<v Speaker 15>drain like Churchill does. Churchill is a very standy track,

436
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:39.599
<v Speaker 15>so the base allows for a lot of water to

437
00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:41.720
<v Speaker 15>be able to be taken in and then drain away

438
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:44.640
<v Speaker 15>within a day. Sarah Tooga is not really built like that.

439
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:48.680
<v Speaker 15>So if it's super sloppy, money, it's going to affect

440
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:50.160
<v Speaker 15>how the horses run tomorrow.

441
00:19:50.279 --> 00:19:52.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, No that I knew it was going to be wet,

442
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:54.640
<v Speaker 3>because I've been studying it myself, and we know how

443
00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:57.160
<v Speaker 3>it went the first time in a ready muddy situation,

444
00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:01.240
<v Speaker 3>in a Churchill right right where I couldn't hold on

445
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.960
<v Speaker 3>against a sovereignty. But so what does this mean if

446
00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:06.119
<v Speaker 3>it's still going to be sloppy.

447
00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 15>So it means that horses that are breaking on the

448
00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:13.559
<v Speaker 15>lead and they're getting comfortable leads, the speed is holding.

449
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:16.079
<v Speaker 15>It's it was a very speed bias track last year.

450
00:20:16.119 --> 00:20:19.279
<v Speaker 15>We saw that in last year's Belmont when Dorknock went

451
00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:22.720
<v Speaker 15>gate to wire and sire Leone struggled to close for third.

452
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:25.119
<v Speaker 15>We saw it again at the Acorn Lacara, who was

453
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:27.640
<v Speaker 15>the winner. She ran nice in the Kentucky Oaks, did

454
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:30.359
<v Speaker 15>not take to the Churchill track sloppy that day. She

455
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.920
<v Speaker 15>did seem to take to the Saratoga sloppy sealed track today,

456
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:37.960
<v Speaker 15>So it could be a thing. If journalism didn't particularly.

457
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:39.680
<v Speaker 17>Like churchill sloppy track, he may like.

458
00:20:39.680 --> 00:20:41.880
<v Speaker 15>The Saratoga sloppy track.

459
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:42.640
<v Speaker 16>I did get to hear.

460
00:20:42.559 --> 00:20:45.799
<v Speaker 15>An interview from Michael McCarthy earlier today with one of

461
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:48.880
<v Speaker 15>the reporters up at Fox and he said, Journalism has

462
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:50.880
<v Speaker 15>been training very well. He's been eating up and you've

463
00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:55.640
<v Speaker 15>had kind of this kind of re energized energy about

464
00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:56.319
<v Speaker 15>him in the morning.

465
00:20:56.319 --> 00:20:57.880
<v Speaker 16>He's training really well, and I've.

466
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:01.400
<v Speaker 15>Watched him galloping and he looks like he is on something.

467
00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:03.960
<v Speaker 15>He's not for drug testing purposes, he's not, but he

468
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:07.119
<v Speaker 15>looks just like he did before the breaknance. He looks

469
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:11.200
<v Speaker 15>like he's in really good form. You know, it's it's

470
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:13.559
<v Speaker 15>going to be a matter of I think pace makes

471
00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:13.920
<v Speaker 15>the race.

472
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:14.599
<v Speaker 16>In this case.

473
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:17.160
<v Speaker 15>We do have a little bit more speed in here

474
00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:19.599
<v Speaker 15>with the ad of Crudo the five who's the other

475
00:21:19.640 --> 00:21:22.720
<v Speaker 15>Todd Pletcher runner in here. But if we're talking speed

476
00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:25.599
<v Speaker 15>on the front end, this is Rodriguez's race to lose.

477
00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:27.359
<v Speaker 15>Like if he's going to break on the front end,

478
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:29.119
<v Speaker 15>like Bob Baffert says, that he's got to come out

479
00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:31.720
<v Speaker 15>of the gate running, he's going to set very comfortable

480
00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:33.400
<v Speaker 15>factions up front, and if he doesn't take a lot

481
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:35.519
<v Speaker 15>of pressure pressure, he's going to go a mile on

482
00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:37.319
<v Speaker 15>the quarter around the tracks very easily.

483
00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:40.960
<v Speaker 4>How much of a I'm very ospussion how much of

484
00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:43.839
<v Speaker 4>a factor is that the Journalism ran three weeks ago

485
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:49.200
<v Speaker 4>at the breakness and sovereignty did not or sovereignty a factor.

486
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:51.640
<v Speaker 4>We're seeing that sovereignty is like the third favor right.

487
00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:53.519
<v Speaker 11>Now, right, Yeah.

488
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:56.599
<v Speaker 15>So this is the really interesting dynamic of why horse

489
00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:59.119
<v Speaker 15>racing is so much fun and specifically why the Triple

490
00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:02.240
<v Speaker 15>Crown is such a cool series of raceists to watch

491
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:05.319
<v Speaker 15>because this year, Journalism is the only horse to have

492
00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:07.759
<v Speaker 15>run in all three Triple Crown races. Last year, Missed

493
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:10.160
<v Speaker 15>Dan was last year's Kentucky Derby winner. He was the

494
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.720
<v Speaker 15>only one to have run an all three Triple Crown races.

495
00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:15.799
<v Speaker 15>So looking at Journalism, who's built like a classic horse,

496
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:18.200
<v Speaker 15>He's got long legs, he's a long stride, and he

497
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:20.599
<v Speaker 15>hits his best distance at a mile and three sixteenth

498
00:22:20.640 --> 00:22:22.279
<v Speaker 15>And we saw that in the Preakness as he got

499
00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:25.440
<v Speaker 15>out of trouble and he just started powering home, his

500
00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:28.599
<v Speaker 15>stride got longer. He literally was running faster. Typically when

501
00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:31.160
<v Speaker 15>you see horses clothing like that, the front horses are

502
00:22:31.240 --> 00:22:34.400
<v Speaker 15>slowing down, but he was literally starting to run faster

503
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:37.440
<v Speaker 15>in that last eighth of a mile. And so it's

504
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:40.799
<v Speaker 15>a very interesting thing because Belmont has said that sovereignty

505
00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.039
<v Speaker 15>your Kentucky Derby winner. This past year has been training

506
00:22:44.079 --> 00:22:46.680
<v Speaker 15>with also any type of energy. He's much more aggressive

507
00:22:46.680 --> 00:22:49.240
<v Speaker 15>in the morning. He's also filled out. He's the five

508
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:52.079
<v Speaker 15>weeks has done him a lot of good. He's said

509
00:22:52.119 --> 00:22:54.480
<v Speaker 15>in previous interviews. The Preakness was never on their mind

510
00:22:54.519 --> 00:22:57.480
<v Speaker 15>had they won. The plan right along was when the

511
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:01.079
<v Speaker 15>Kentucky Derby goes straight to the Belmont. My concern is

512
00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:04.160
<v Speaker 15>is this track has been a speed bias track, and

513
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:07.799
<v Speaker 15>so the fact that he typically is farther back, granted

514
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:10.319
<v Speaker 15>it's a short field, he may have to sit close

515
00:23:10.359 --> 00:23:12.599
<v Speaker 15>to the pace, which is not his typical running style.

516
00:23:12.720 --> 00:23:14.319
<v Speaker 15>So that could take him out of the race a

517
00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:16.920
<v Speaker 15>little bit in the sense of what he's comfortable running.

518
00:23:17.240 --> 00:23:21.000
<v Speaker 3>And Ben and you know this is a shorter race.

519
00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:22.599
<v Speaker 2>It's a shorter distance is time.

520
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:26.559
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, So typically your Belmont race is a mile and

521
00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:30.319
<v Speaker 15>a half. And because the Belmont for last year and

522
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.200
<v Speaker 15>this year are at Saratoga, they can't run a mile

523
00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:35.359
<v Speaker 15>and a half due to the track configuration of how

524
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:38.200
<v Speaker 15>large the oval is. So we are back running at

525
00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:39.880
<v Speaker 15>a mile and a quarter. Now, if this race was

526
00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:42.119
<v Speaker 15>a mile and a half, I would say, Besa is

527
00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:44.680
<v Speaker 15>your runner hands down? The way he was running on

528
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 15>in the Kentucky Derby told me that worse the farther

529
00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:49.440
<v Speaker 15>he goes.

530
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:50.599
<v Speaker 16>He will be a marathon runner.

531
00:23:50.640 --> 00:23:52.400
<v Speaker 15>And I think the thing to note.

532
00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:55.079
<v Speaker 16>With him is his half brother was door Knock. Door

533
00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:56.119
<v Speaker 16>Knock won last.

534
00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:00.640
<v Speaker 15>Year's Belmont here at Saratoga, So that also, if you

535
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:02.319
<v Speaker 15>want to call it a bit of a sibling bias,

536
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:05.480
<v Speaker 15>it's a sibling bias. Pooka also had the twenty twenty

537
00:24:06.519 --> 00:24:10.000
<v Speaker 15>was it twenty twenty What Are We? Twenty five, twenty four,

538
00:24:10.279 --> 00:24:14.400
<v Speaker 15>twenty three Kentucky Derby winner with Mage, and so she

539
00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:17.839
<v Speaker 15>is one of the highest producing brood mares to ever

540
00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:20.799
<v Speaker 15>have this many classic runners in the Triple Crown series.

541
00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:23.640
<v Speaker 15>So to say that Besa is bred for this is

542
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:24.440
<v Speaker 15>an understatement.

543
00:24:25.400 --> 00:24:29.160
<v Speaker 3>There's also a horse that Jay would like and Olvic

544
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:36.079
<v Speaker 3>would like, maybe maybe Dawn called Krudo Grudle. I love that,

545
00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:38.480
<v Speaker 3>and Ray knows you know what that means. They're a

546
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:39.279
<v Speaker 3>little girl.

547
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:43.279
<v Speaker 16>I don't think I know the meaning of crude.

548
00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:44.799
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead means hungover.

549
00:24:46.240 --> 00:24:49.559
<v Speaker 15>Oh well, I mean that would make sense considering Jay

550
00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:52.359
<v Speaker 15>just got back from Corona and I was hungover.

551
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:59.200
<v Speaker 2>So that's that's your hunch point. If if this race

552
00:24:59.319 --> 00:24:59.960
<v Speaker 2>was running on.

553
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:04.799
<v Speaker 15>He's an interesting horse in here, in the fact that

554
00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:07.119
<v Speaker 15>he's the second Todd Pletcher runner and he's the other

555
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:09.039
<v Speaker 15>horse that has speed, so he'll be the one the

556
00:25:09.200 --> 00:25:12.039
<v Speaker 15>theory that will break with Rodriguez to push the pace,

557
00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:14.400
<v Speaker 15>and the faster they go, the better of a race.

558
00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:18.599
<v Speaker 15>It makes for your geek closers. Now, I think journalism

559
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:20.519
<v Speaker 15>is going to sit very close in the race. Crudo

560
00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:22.960
<v Speaker 15>is very lightly raced. Who's coming out of Sir Barton,

561
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:25.680
<v Speaker 15>which was at Pimlico. He also raced three weeks ago

562
00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:28.839
<v Speaker 15>at a mile in the sixteenth. He didn't beat a

563
00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:32.119
<v Speaker 15>whole lot that day and didn't run a super high

564
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:34.440
<v Speaker 15>buyer speed figure, but that was kind of the standard

565
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:35.519
<v Speaker 15>for that day at Pimlico.

566
00:25:35.799 --> 00:25:37.359
<v Speaker 16>The track was just playing kind.

567
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:38.759
<v Speaker 15>Of weird, and it was just it was a very

568
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:41.400
<v Speaker 15>slow day. Times were very slow. They were just dragging

569
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:44.359
<v Speaker 15>on that dirt. But I mean, Johnny Velaska's Hall of

570
00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:47.400
<v Speaker 15>Fame jockey, he has been having himself a day. He

571
00:25:47.480 --> 00:25:51.240
<v Speaker 15>has been winning races left and right, large prices, short prices,

572
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:53.079
<v Speaker 15>you name it. So I mean you got to give

573
00:25:53.160 --> 00:25:55.240
<v Speaker 15>him credit. That Todd Pletcher goes to Johnny b a

574
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:58.799
<v Speaker 15>board Crudo, I mean, in a'sn to justify, how can

575
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:01.559
<v Speaker 15>you not bet a don of a triple crown winner?

576
00:26:01.640 --> 00:26:05.079
<v Speaker 4>I mean, how can you not take a Latin Hispanic

577
00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:07.759
<v Speaker 4>jockey on a horse named Crudough?

578
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:10.839
<v Speaker 2>Right? I mean you have to right. Let me ask

579
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:11.240
<v Speaker 2>you something.

580
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:15.839
<v Speaker 4>Because a sloppy track, how how much does it affect

581
00:26:16.039 --> 00:26:19.720
<v Speaker 4>the time? You know, the speed of a race. I

582
00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:22.079
<v Speaker 4>know some horses like to run in that, some horses don't.

583
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:26.279
<v Speaker 4>But is it several seconds? Half second? I mean how

584
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:29.000
<v Speaker 4>much of a difference in a winning time would there

585
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:30.519
<v Speaker 4>be because it's a sloppy track.

586
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.359
<v Speaker 15>I mean it really depends on the track because every

587
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.599
<v Speaker 15>track composition is a little different, it'll affect that. The

588
00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:39.680
<v Speaker 15>other large thing to consider is if the track is

589
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:42.039
<v Speaker 15>sealed or what we call open. If the track is sealed,

590
00:26:42.079 --> 00:26:44.319
<v Speaker 15>it means the dirt's been packed down super hard, so

591
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:46.759
<v Speaker 15>it's more like running on concrete versus like on sand

592
00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:49.480
<v Speaker 15>on the beach. So if you're running on much like

593
00:26:49.519 --> 00:26:52.160
<v Speaker 15>fluffy or wet sand, you're gonna sink a little bit more.

594
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:54.880
<v Speaker 15>Whereas a wet sealed track that's muddy, where you just

595
00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:57.200
<v Speaker 15>see water kind of sitting on top, it's gonna be

596
00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:58.759
<v Speaker 15>much harder, they're going to get much more of a

597
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:01.400
<v Speaker 15>push and a bounce off of it. So it kind

598
00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:03.640
<v Speaker 15>of depends from that standpoint. I mean, we could be

599
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:05.720
<v Speaker 15>talking a couple of seconds. I mean, you're not talking

600
00:27:05.720 --> 00:27:07.880
<v Speaker 15>twenty seconds flower in a race, but you could be

601
00:27:08.200 --> 00:27:09.400
<v Speaker 15>a solid three to four.

602
00:27:09.279 --> 00:27:11.440
<v Speaker 17>Second time difference between a.

603
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:15.400
<v Speaker 15>Wet, sloppy track that's sealed and a dry, fast track.

604
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.799
<v Speaker 2>And you said this one is not sealed, right this.

605
00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:19.799
<v Speaker 16>One is sealed right now.

606
00:27:20.480 --> 00:27:23.599
<v Speaker 15>And they gotten enough rain earlier they pulled a couple

607
00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:24.839
<v Speaker 15>of Grade ones off.

608
00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:25.200
<v Speaker 18>Of the turf.

609
00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:26.839
<v Speaker 15>It looks like they're going to race on the turf

610
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:30.880
<v Speaker 15>for Race twelve right now at Saratoga. But if they

611
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.200
<v Speaker 15>continue to get weather like they have been today, I

612
00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:36.279
<v Speaker 15>would not expect the track conditions tomorrow to be great either.

613
00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:41.119
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, who was gonna ask you something? Oh?

614
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:42.799
<v Speaker 3>I haven't talked to you since the last time for

615
00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:44.440
<v Speaker 3>the pregnants, right, we haven't.

616
00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:46.599
<v Speaker 2>Taked to you. Just the I don't think that just

617
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:48.240
<v Speaker 2>the just the performance of.

618
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:51.400
<v Speaker 3>Journalism, because holy crap, there's no way we're thinking and

619
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Jay's probably thinking, there's no way's gonna cash a ticket,

620
00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:55.799
<v Speaker 3>and I'm thinking he's gonna finish a second, but then

621
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:59.519
<v Speaker 3>he gets through it and he comes down rushed. It

622
00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:02.200
<v Speaker 3>was what he did even if we had baffort on

623
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:04.839
<v Speaker 3>last week. And he was like, I mean, that doesn't

624
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:05.680
<v Speaker 3>happen very often.

625
00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:10.240
<v Speaker 15>No, that that race was something else to watch. And

626
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:12.119
<v Speaker 15>I was sitting in the newsroom with a bunch of

627
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:14.440
<v Speaker 15>other people and we were all hooting and hollering, and

628
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:17.319
<v Speaker 15>you know, he got slammed and in that corner, and

629
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:19.720
<v Speaker 15>some say, you know, the jockey shouldn't have gone.

630
00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:20.960
<v Speaker 17>He should have gone, he should have had.

631
00:28:20.839 --> 00:28:21.480
<v Speaker 16>A different trip.

632
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:24.119
<v Speaker 15>But I look at it from the horse's standpoint, and

633
00:28:24.279 --> 00:28:26.400
<v Speaker 15>that horse is a winner, like he knows how to win.

634
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 15>And he saw daylight through that hole, and the horse

635
00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:31.119
<v Speaker 15>was gonna go. Whether I'm virtual riskling, his jockey.

636
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:33.079
<v Speaker 16>Told him not to or to go or not to go.

637
00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:35.319
<v Speaker 15>So I mean, at that point, I believe the horse

638
00:28:35.319 --> 00:28:37.799
<v Speaker 15>made the decision, which tells me how gussy and game

639
00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:40.359
<v Speaker 15>he is. Again, he's a horse that we have seen

640
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:43.400
<v Speaker 15>in multiple races now that can take a hit, They

641
00:28:43.480 --> 00:28:48.480
<v Speaker 15>can take adversity, and he's going to keep running afterwards. Again,

642
00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:52.079
<v Speaker 15>I think while he can get over the mud, it's

643
00:28:52.160 --> 00:28:53.880
<v Speaker 15>just a matter of how easily can he get over

644
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:56.480
<v Speaker 15>the mud? Honest, everybody would like to see a dry track.

645
00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:58.920
<v Speaker 15>They would like to see an even playing field from

646
00:28:58.920 --> 00:29:01.400
<v Speaker 15>that standpoint between SOT and journalism in a dry track,

647
00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:03.119
<v Speaker 15>but we may not see that until the Breeders' Cup

648
00:29:03.119 --> 00:29:06.559
<v Speaker 15>Classic when they both come out to Delmar, because Delmar

649
00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:08.480
<v Speaker 15>is gonna have a really good weather come November. But

650
00:29:08.880 --> 00:29:13.039
<v Speaker 15>for right now, no, you can't take anything away from

651
00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:16.359
<v Speaker 15>what journalism did in the Derby and then the Preakness

652
00:29:16.400 --> 00:29:18.519
<v Speaker 15>and what he's trying to do here in the Dalmont.

653
00:29:19.359 --> 00:29:21.799
<v Speaker 15>His sire Curlin ran in two thousand and seven in

654
00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:24.799
<v Speaker 15>the Kentucky Derby, he ran third. Curlin proceeded to them

655
00:29:24.839 --> 00:29:29.680
<v Speaker 15>win the Preakness, just like journalism, and then Curlin lost

656
00:29:29.839 --> 00:29:32.319
<v Speaker 15>the two thousand and seven Belmont to Rags to Riches,

657
00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:35.000
<v Speaker 15>who was a todd Pletcher Philly. So while we don't

658
00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:36.759
<v Speaker 15>have any Phillies in here that I think will be

659
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:41.440
<v Speaker 15>beating journalism, it's definitely something to look at as sire

660
00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:44.119
<v Speaker 15>lines and Curlin's represented by a couple of horses in here,

661
00:29:44.599 --> 00:29:48.480
<v Speaker 15>and the last horse that won the Preakness and then

662
00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:51.680
<v Speaker 15>went on to win the Belmont was a fleet Alex

663
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:53.680
<v Speaker 15>twenty years ago, in two thousand and five.

664
00:29:54.119 --> 00:29:56.000
<v Speaker 3>So let me ask you, because you I don't think

665
00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:59.799
<v Speaker 3>I've ever asked anybody this question, because you have horses,

666
00:29:59.839 --> 00:30:02.759
<v Speaker 3>You own some horses or a horse, and you're you know,

667
00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:05.680
<v Speaker 3>you're well versed in all this stuff. How smart are

668
00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:07.680
<v Speaker 3>the horses? If you said that journalism was going to

669
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:12.000
<v Speaker 3>get through no matter what jockey or not, what are

670
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:12.799
<v Speaker 3>their instincts?

671
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:13.599
<v Speaker 2>Like? What do they do?

672
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:15.759
<v Speaker 16>You know?

673
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:20.319
<v Speaker 15>I truly believe every horse is their own individual just

674
00:30:20.440 --> 00:30:21.000
<v Speaker 15>like people.

675
00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:23.359
<v Speaker 16>I have heard Michael.

676
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:23.799
<v Speaker 15>McCarthy say it.

677
00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:25.119
<v Speaker 17>I've heard them virtual briskally say it.

678
00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:26.920
<v Speaker 15>I've heard people that have just happened to go to

679
00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:28.839
<v Speaker 15>the barn and see journalism and take pictures with them.

680
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:32.960
<v Speaker 15>How smart and kind he is and just how just aware,

681
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:34.039
<v Speaker 15>like he's just.

682
00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:35.640
<v Speaker 16>A very well minded horse.

683
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:38.160
<v Speaker 15>And so the fact that he wanted to go through

684
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:40.079
<v Speaker 15>that whole tells me how much he wants it. And

685
00:30:40.119 --> 00:30:43.319
<v Speaker 15>we talk about in sports, you gotta have heart, you

686
00:30:43.359 --> 00:30:47.279
<v Speaker 15>got to be able to, you know, rise above physical

687
00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:51.119
<v Speaker 15>limitations or bad trips, And he truly is one that

688
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:53.799
<v Speaker 15>has a big heart and he's gonna use every ounce

689
00:30:53.839 --> 00:30:57.319
<v Speaker 15>of physical being that he has or heart to get

690
00:30:57.359 --> 00:30:58.400
<v Speaker 15>through where he needs to go.

691
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:01.480
<v Speaker 3>So unlike Jay when he's playing, not thinking he's in

692
00:31:01.519 --> 00:31:04.000
<v Speaker 3>a game, the horses know that they're in a race.

693
00:31:05.400 --> 00:31:08.880
<v Speaker 15>Oh absolutely, those horses know it's rain they know it's

694
00:31:08.920 --> 00:31:12.359
<v Speaker 15>game day. There's a little bit of different setup routine

695
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:14.359
<v Speaker 15>that goes on on race day, and those horses pick

696
00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:17.079
<v Speaker 15>up on it pretty fast. Obviously, when you go to

697
00:31:17.079 --> 00:31:18.839
<v Speaker 15>the paddock and you get settled and there's a big

698
00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:20.759
<v Speaker 15>crowd around, the horses will feed off of that, and

699
00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:24.000
<v Speaker 15>then in the post parade. It's a very different feel

700
00:31:24.039 --> 00:31:25.720
<v Speaker 15>in the afternoons compared to the mornings.

701
00:31:25.720 --> 00:31:27.440
<v Speaker 16>It's why sometimes you'll hear training and say.

702
00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:29.000
<v Speaker 15>Well, they train really well in the morning, we needed

703
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:31.880
<v Speaker 15>to translate to the afternoon. These horses racing at this

704
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:35.200
<v Speaker 15>high level, their morning trainings are translating into the afternoon.

705
00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:37.359
<v Speaker 15>You are seeing these horses at their top form, at

706
00:31:37.400 --> 00:31:40.279
<v Speaker 15>their best form here in the afternoons during race time.

707
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:45.359
<v Speaker 4>Okay you ready, Okay, So everybody that there's a whole

708
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.720
<v Speaker 4>gaggle of us that put some money on that four

709
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:52.400
<v Speaker 4>horse box that you gave us, and I think they're

710
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:54.160
<v Speaker 4>all listening today, plus a few others.

711
00:31:54.200 --> 00:31:56.720
<v Speaker 2>Word of mouth has gotten around, so here you go,

712
00:31:56.839 --> 00:32:01.240
<v Speaker 2>oh God, this might be your last conversation with you.

713
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:05.000
<v Speaker 4>All right, give us our give us our four horse

714
00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:06.640
<v Speaker 4>exact the box.

715
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:09.960
<v Speaker 15>You know, I'm gonna stick with journalism on top. I

716
00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:11.839
<v Speaker 15>truly do believe he is still the best three year

717
00:32:11.839 --> 00:32:16.480
<v Speaker 15>old around. I think he's extremely classy, very precocious, and

718
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:19.160
<v Speaker 15>he's he's taken the Connections on a ride of a lifetime.

719
00:32:19.480 --> 00:32:21.640
<v Speaker 15>So journalism on top for me, I'm going to take

720
00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:25.640
<v Speaker 15>Rodriguez in there as well, and then I will not

721
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:30.079
<v Speaker 15>count out Sovereignty, the two horse, your Kentucky Derby winner,

722
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:32.319
<v Speaker 15>and then you got to add Beza back in there.

723
00:32:32.359 --> 00:32:36.240
<v Speaker 15>You're Belmont winner for the last out of the last

724
00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:38.720
<v Speaker 15>twenty years, thirteen of those winners have come out of

725
00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:41.880
<v Speaker 15>the Kentucky Derby race. They have either prepped in the

726
00:32:41.920 --> 00:32:43.799
<v Speaker 15>Kentucky Derby or running the Kentucky Derby.

727
00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:45.480
<v Speaker 16>So that can't be ignored.

728
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:47.920
<v Speaker 15>That's that you have to include the three horses that

729
00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:49.279
<v Speaker 15>are coming out of the Kentucky.

730
00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:49.759
<v Speaker 16>Derby in that box.

731
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:51.680
<v Speaker 4>So I think so those are those are the four

732
00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:55.079
<v Speaker 4>favorites as of now. He threw us a long shot

733
00:32:55.160 --> 00:32:57.559
<v Speaker 4>last time. If we were throwing to throw in a

734
00:32:57.599 --> 00:33:00.559
<v Speaker 4>long shot for discussion would that be?

735
00:33:03.160 --> 00:33:07.720
<v Speaker 15>I would? I mean, this field is it's kind of

736
00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:10.279
<v Speaker 15>a wonky field. It's it's not just a small field.

737
00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:12.319
<v Speaker 15>But you've got Heart of Honor who is coming over

738
00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:16.160
<v Speaker 15>from racing in May Dawn. He ran an okay fifth

739
00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:19.640
<v Speaker 15>in the Preakness, and you got Uncaged who ran six

740
00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:22.960
<v Speaker 15>in the Peter Pan. I would probably take Hill Road.

741
00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:25.200
<v Speaker 15>He's not a huge price, but he did win the

742
00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:29.480
<v Speaker 15>Peter Pan. That is the quote unquote prep race for

743
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:32.799
<v Speaker 15>the Belmont. Chad Brown has been having a decent day

744
00:33:32.839 --> 00:33:36.960
<v Speaker 15>to day after being very quiet. So if he's gonna

745
00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:39.240
<v Speaker 15>have a horse run well tomorrow, it's gonna be Hill Road.

746
00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:42.640
<v Speaker 16>He teams up with irad Orties, so.

747
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:44.519
<v Speaker 15>We'll see what happens there. I mean, he ran third

748
00:33:44.559 --> 00:33:48.200
<v Speaker 15>in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile behind Citizen Bowl and Gaming

749
00:33:48.279 --> 00:33:50.799
<v Speaker 15>and Citizen Bowls. Making his return in.

750
00:33:50.720 --> 00:33:54.160
<v Speaker 18>The Woody the what is it the Woody Stevens of

751
00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:59.960
<v Speaker 18>the h Allen Jerkins. It's the hand The Woody steven

752
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:02.759
<v Speaker 18>is this weekend, so the Citizen Bowl will be returning

753
00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:05.200
<v Speaker 18>in the Woody Stevens. Uh So, I mean.

754
00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:08.159
<v Speaker 15>Definitely Hill Rode a classy horse they had hoped to

755
00:34:08.199 --> 00:34:11.199
<v Speaker 15>get into the Kentucky Derby. But unfortunately he just didn't

756
00:34:11.239 --> 00:34:12.079
<v Speaker 15>have the points to get in.

757
00:34:12.639 --> 00:34:15.760
<v Speaker 3>So if you if your little exact hits did Jay,

758
00:34:16.119 --> 00:34:17.280
<v Speaker 3>you might not be crudeo.

759
00:34:17.440 --> 00:34:21.039
<v Speaker 2>You might be cruzo in the morning. I don't know, man.

760
00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:25.960
<v Speaker 4>We we just watching the end of that Preakness, and

761
00:34:25.960 --> 00:34:28.920
<v Speaker 4>and and what was the longshot's name?

762
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:30.679
<v Speaker 2>The horse of finger second.

763
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:33.320
<v Speaker 15>Gos was a nine horse.

764
00:34:34.719 --> 00:34:37.400
<v Speaker 4>There was no when I saw journalism come out of there,

765
00:34:37.760 --> 00:34:40.280
<v Speaker 4>I thought there's no way after that that it can

766
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:41.199
<v Speaker 4>catch this horse.

767
00:34:41.519 --> 00:34:44.639
<v Speaker 2>I thought we were cashing big. And then he just came.

768
00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:46.719
<v Speaker 15>And that's what I mean that that is a horse

769
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:48.760
<v Speaker 15>with a lot of heart that that wanted that when

770
00:34:48.920 --> 00:34:51.480
<v Speaker 15>he was the whole reason that he got in front.

771
00:34:51.840 --> 00:34:53.960
<v Speaker 15>The jockey did not do anything that was that was

772
00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:54.760
<v Speaker 15>all journalism.

773
00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:58.199
<v Speaker 4>Would you would you key journalism at the top maybe

774
00:34:58.239 --> 00:35:02.039
<v Speaker 4>first and you know, just journalism and then a bunch

775
00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:03.199
<v Speaker 4>of horses or what what?

776
00:35:03.199 --> 00:35:04.119
<v Speaker 2>What do you think.

777
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:10.480
<v Speaker 16>The box up to you?

778
00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:16.159
<v Speaker 3>Spend his money, baby, spend his money.

779
00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:19.000
<v Speaker 15>You know, I would put journalism on pop. I will

780
00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:21.079
<v Speaker 15>bet him to win personally.

781
00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:22.360
<v Speaker 16>That's That's what I'm gonna do.

782
00:35:22.519 --> 00:35:25.360
<v Speaker 15>I just I truly do believe he's the better horse.

783
00:35:25.400 --> 00:35:28.280
<v Speaker 15>And you know, hearing Michael McCarthy saying that he's breathing

784
00:35:28.320 --> 00:35:30.159
<v Speaker 15>a different air and he's been re energized since coming

785
00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:33.000
<v Speaker 15>to Saratoga, I think is is huge credit to him

786
00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:36.280
<v Speaker 15>and how how he's been going. You know, Besa is

787
00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:38.199
<v Speaker 15>the other horse that people can't seem to stop talking

788
00:35:38.239 --> 00:35:42.039
<v Speaker 15>about Berta Risk. He was doing an interview and uh,

789
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:43.639
<v Speaker 15>they were saying, you know, how do you feel about

790
00:35:43.639 --> 00:35:45.599
<v Speaker 15>the magic with sovereigny. He's like, can't forget Besa. And

791
00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:47.639
<v Speaker 15>I think the key to that is Besa shipped back

792
00:35:47.679 --> 00:35:50.320
<v Speaker 15>to Santa Anita after the Kentucky Derby and has been

793
00:35:50.360 --> 00:35:54.239
<v Speaker 15>training at sant Anita, So everyone including numberto Michael McCarthy

794
00:35:54.239 --> 00:35:56.320
<v Speaker 15>have gotten a first hand watch and how this cult

795
00:35:56.360 --> 00:35:57.039
<v Speaker 15>has been working.

796
00:35:57.119 --> 00:35:59.320
<v Speaker 16>And the fact again that he's out.

797
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:01.800
<v Speaker 15>Of Pooka, he's got two half brothers that are already

798
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:04.960
<v Speaker 15>classic winners, I think is another big, big.

799
00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:05.920
<v Speaker 17>Factor to add on to it.

800
00:36:05.960 --> 00:36:08.400
<v Speaker 16>And the fact that he likes to stop it was

801
00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:09.159
<v Speaker 16>it's huge.

802
00:36:09.400 --> 00:36:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Okay, well, d thanks a bunch. We'll talk to

803
00:36:13.320 --> 00:36:16.000
<v Speaker 3>you soon. I'll probably text you on Saturday tomorrow.

<v Speaker 16>Of course he's calling me right now.

807
00:36:21.960 --> 00:36:23.880
<v Speaker 2>And your mom and your mom, don't forget your mom. Yeah,

811
00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:32.480
<v Speaker 4>And that's the things you to figure out. Well, you

812
00:36:32.519 --> 00:36:35.599
<v Speaker 4>got to figure out a way to he's bad, something

813
00:36:35.639 --> 00:36:37.719
<v Speaker 4>that with some value, or maybe you just bet him

814
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:38.920
<v Speaker 4>to win and try and get something.

815
00:36:39.079 --> 00:36:40.480
<v Speaker 3>That's what I did last time. I didn't know with

816
00:36:40.519 --> 00:36:43.320
<v Speaker 3>all that crazy. Yeah, okay, let's go come back. If

822

00:41:29.760 --> 00:41:33.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, we yeah, we drank a bit, but it

914
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:35.599
<v Speaker 4>was fun and right on the beach, had a great

915
00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:37.320
<v Speaker 4>time and uh, and it was a cool event for

916
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:37.960
<v Speaker 4>our families.

917
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:40.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna ask you this because I ask everybody whenever

918
00:41:40.519 --> 00:41:43.119
<v Speaker 5>they come into like an anniversary at the restaurant, what's

919
00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:43.599
<v Speaker 5>the secret?

920
00:41:44.559 --> 00:41:48.599
<v Speaker 2>What's the secret? God, there's a serious question.

921
00:41:51.559 --> 00:41:54.840
<v Speaker 3>The secret is secrets.

922
00:41:52.880 --> 00:41:58.199
<v Speaker 4>No, No, you know, you know it's it's it's it's

923
00:41:58.239 --> 00:42:01.800
<v Speaker 4>being flexible, right, and and sometimes you sometimes you give,

924
00:42:01.880 --> 00:42:06.599
<v Speaker 4>sometimes you get and and you know, not always feeling

925
00:42:06.639 --> 00:42:07.840
<v Speaker 4>like things got to be your way.

926
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:09.719
<v Speaker 2>And and that's really it. I think.

927
00:42:10.079 --> 00:42:12.679
<v Speaker 4>I think I'm a very flexible person when it comes

928
00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:14.960
<v Speaker 4>to our to our marriage. You know, my wife might

929
00:42:15.039 --> 00:42:17.159
<v Speaker 4>someday say look, I want to do this, and I'll

930
00:42:17.159 --> 00:42:19.480
<v Speaker 4>say okay, But then I get one down the road

931
00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:21.159
<v Speaker 4>and it's not a tit for tech kind of thing.

932
00:42:21.199 --> 00:42:24.480
<v Speaker 4>It's just like, okay, you know, we'll do this and

933
00:42:24.480 --> 00:42:26.599
<v Speaker 4>and not and not being grumpy about it or whatever.

934
00:42:26.679 --> 00:42:28.719
<v Speaker 2>And to me, that's that's the secret.

935
00:42:28.719 --> 00:42:31.760
<v Speaker 4>And then do the dishes two or three times a week,

936
00:42:38.559 --> 00:42:43.159
<v Speaker 4>the times a week, cut the grass and uh, you know,

937
00:42:43.360 --> 00:42:45.199
<v Speaker 4>and and here's the here's one for me and this

938
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:47.079
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if this for everybody's measured, but this

939
00:42:47.119 --> 00:42:47.960
<v Speaker 4>is for our marriage.

940
00:42:48.559 --> 00:42:49.559
<v Speaker 2>Is listen.

941
00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:55.039
<v Speaker 4>I listened to my wife when it came to making

942
00:42:55.079 --> 00:42:59.119
<v Speaker 4>decisions about the kids, how to raise them, you know,

943
00:42:59.360 --> 00:43:00.639
<v Speaker 4>things to do, would not do.

944
00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:02.199
<v Speaker 2>She's way more school.

945
00:43:02.199 --> 00:43:04.480
<v Speaker 4>You know, she reads, she talks to people, she talks

946
00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:07.920
<v Speaker 4>to other moms, and it's like trust that she's always.

947
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:10.079
<v Speaker 2>Trying to do the right thing and in our in

948
00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:12.000
<v Speaker 2>our particular case. Now, I know there's some.

949
00:43:11.920 --> 00:43:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Moms out there you can't you can't trust, but you know,

950
00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:18.679
<v Speaker 3>she's a smart woman. First of yeah, our kids are,

951
00:43:19.039 --> 00:43:22.199
<v Speaker 3>so you have to question that our kids.

952
00:43:21.960 --> 00:43:26.800
<v Speaker 2>Are great kids in large part because of her. I agree.

953
00:43:26.880 --> 00:43:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I had a little too much of my dad in me.

954
00:43:29.079 --> 00:43:31.599
<v Speaker 4>And my dad was, you know, very strict, disciplinarian, the

955
00:43:31.639 --> 00:43:34.880
<v Speaker 4>guy who you know, and I didn't. We didn't raise

956
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:38.000
<v Speaker 4>our kids like I got raised, and that was a

957
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:38.440
<v Speaker 4>big deal.

958
00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:42.119
<v Speaker 2>He's accurate, I think. And then good kids. Yeah, and

959
00:43:42.360 --> 00:43:44.039
<v Speaker 2>you turn on you turn out good kids.

960
00:43:44.079 --> 00:43:45.440
<v Speaker 4>And then you watch them and you know, my son

961
00:43:45.519 --> 00:43:48.400
<v Speaker 4>is a dad now and you see him and I

962
00:43:48.480 --> 00:43:51.920
<v Speaker 4>see him and his wife have the same kind of

963
00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:56.199
<v Speaker 4>relationship or the way of doing things as we did.

964
00:43:56.679 --> 00:43:59.760
<v Speaker 2>She's the one who knows all the things right.

965
00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:03.639
<v Speaker 4>Let's not do this, you know, And he's like okay,

966
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:06.280
<v Speaker 4>you know, but you know, on the other hand, you know,

967
00:44:06.320 --> 00:44:08.400
<v Speaker 4>he's got his thing too, and it's not like.

968
00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:10.960
<v Speaker 2>He it's not like we're not didn't participate in raising

969
00:44:10.960 --> 00:44:11.760
<v Speaker 2>our kids. We did.

970
00:44:12.039 --> 00:44:14.960
<v Speaker 4>But it's kind of like listen because sometimes somebody's got

971
00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:16.079
<v Speaker 4>a better idea than you got.

972
00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:21.880
<v Speaker 3>And that asked me about my success. I'm single because

973
00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:24.480
<v Speaker 3>I could do whatever the damn thing I want.

974
00:44:25.280 --> 00:44:28.039
<v Speaker 2>I can do pretty much anything. I can do anything

975
00:44:28.079 --> 00:44:34.719
<v Speaker 2>I want. I just don't. Sometimes you're happy, Yeah you're happy. Oh,

976
00:44:34.719 --> 00:44:35.079
<v Speaker 2>it's great.

977
00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:37.159
<v Speaker 3>You want to live another happy in thirty years.

978
00:44:37.239 --> 00:44:43.599
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, here's ray. Go get yourself on the they they made.

979
00:44:43.679 --> 00:44:47.079
<v Speaker 4>They make your day. And sometimes I'm not. You know,

980
00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:49.400
<v Speaker 4>sometimes it's hard, but most of the time, at least

981
00:44:49.440 --> 00:44:52.880
<v Speaker 4>in my case, it has not been. You know, I'll

982
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:56.079
<v Speaker 4>give you one to my wedding boughs from from this.

983
00:44:56.119 --> 00:44:59.760
<v Speaker 4>And I told my wife, I said, every day, whether

984
00:44:59.760 --> 00:45:02.320
<v Speaker 4>it's a good day or a bad day, is a

985
00:45:02.320 --> 00:45:05.719
<v Speaker 4>better day because of her. Right, if it's a bad day,

986
00:45:05.800 --> 00:45:08.079
<v Speaker 4>it's not as bad, and if it's a good day

987
00:45:08.159 --> 00:45:08.960
<v Speaker 4>can be a great day.

988
00:45:09.239 --> 00:45:12.480
<v Speaker 2>That that's kind of was the message of my vowst

989
00:45:12.519 --> 00:45:13.920
<v Speaker 2>write like that all the time.

990
00:45:15.119 --> 00:45:18.559
<v Speaker 3>Because nobody will read that.

991
00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:21.679
<v Speaker 2>Somebody read that good stuff? Was that good?

992
00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Though?

993
00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:22.559
<v Speaker 17>Yeah?

994
00:45:22.760 --> 00:45:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Good?

995
00:45:23.119 --> 00:45:24.679
<v Speaker 4>And I said that and she got tears in her

996
00:45:24.719 --> 00:45:27.320
<v Speaker 4>eyes and it was cool and did you mean that?

997
00:45:27.599 --> 00:45:28.280
<v Speaker 2>But I did?

998
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:30.440
<v Speaker 4>I really did, because I feel, you know, I think

999
00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:33.159
<v Speaker 4>about I think about my bad days, and I think

1000
00:45:33.159 --> 00:45:34.960
<v Speaker 4>about God, how much worse would have been?

1001
00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:37.679
<v Speaker 2>Would it have been if she wasn't there? Right?

1002
00:45:38.039 --> 00:45:40.280
<v Speaker 4>And so and so it's it's it's it's a it's

1003
00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:42.400
<v Speaker 4>an actual true statement.

1004
00:45:42.519 --> 00:45:43.960
<v Speaker 2>She's probably kept them out of trouble.

1005
00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:48.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, and and and the good days are even better.

<v Speaker 2>You guys. Talk to you too, all right, Dick, Yeah,

1074
00:48:56.199 --> 00:48:56.960
<v Speaker 2>I just drink it home.

1075
00:48:57.119 --> 00:49:00.639
<v Speaker 3>Well you there, because he's the one texted me this

1076
00:49:00.639 --> 00:49:02.760
<v Speaker 3>morning really disappointed about the baseball team.

1077
00:49:02.760 --> 00:49:05.000
<v Speaker 4>Well that was disappointing to see for sure. You know,

1078
00:49:05.320 --> 00:49:08.000
<v Speaker 4>I was really disappointed in Crampkowski. He just looked awful.

1079
00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:11.239
<v Speaker 4>I mean literally, he was Every pitch that he threw

1080
00:49:11.760 --> 00:49:14.000
<v Speaker 4>was up and they were and they were crushing him.

1081
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:15.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm like, fix that.

1082
00:49:16.639 --> 00:49:18.960
<v Speaker 4>And I don't know if it was a I'm to

1083
00:49:18.960 --> 00:49:20.480
<v Speaker 4>the point where I thought, is there is there let

1084
00:49:20.480 --> 00:49:22.880
<v Speaker 4>many different about the mound or what was it?

1085
00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:25.119
<v Speaker 2>Let me let me let me ask you this up.

1086
00:49:25.400 --> 00:49:28.199
<v Speaker 3>If they lose ten to five tomorrow or whatever, d

1087
00:49:28.199 --> 00:49:29.559
<v Speaker 3>eight to two or whatever it is.

1088
00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:32.000
<v Speaker 2>How do you measure this team or this season.

1089
00:49:32.199 --> 00:49:35.039
<v Speaker 4>I think it's still really good. You know, they got

1090
00:49:35.039 --> 00:49:37.480
<v Speaker 4>to the you know, they got to a super regional.

1091
00:49:38.079 --> 00:49:42.199
<v Speaker 4>The they won a regional on the road, right, So

1092
00:49:42.360 --> 00:49:44.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, you got to give him credit for that.

1093
00:49:44.800 --> 00:49:46.280
<v Speaker 3>How would you it's okay, so you this ship for

1094
00:49:46.400 --> 00:49:49.480
<v Speaker 3>some sall has been over. How would you look at

1095
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:53.440
<v Speaker 3>the softball season? You can have a little more expectation

1096
00:49:53.519 --> 00:49:56.360
<v Speaker 3>from myself from this because because of what the past.

1097
00:49:56.719 --> 00:49:59.320
<v Speaker 2>Yes, but the past hasn't been that great. It hasn't

1098
00:49:59.320 --> 00:50:00.679
<v Speaker 2>been that great. But you like it.

1099
00:50:00.840 --> 00:50:04.280
<v Speaker 4>You keep thinking, you know, they're they're they're making progress,

1100
00:50:04.280 --> 00:50:06.280
<v Speaker 4>they're going to move. Then they were kind of in

1101
00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:09.679
<v Speaker 4>the end, they were kind of static, right, they didn't.

1102
00:50:09.719 --> 00:50:12.519
<v Speaker 4>I mean, they got to a regional, but you know

1103
00:50:12.559 --> 00:50:13.119
<v Speaker 4>that was it.

1104
00:50:14.079 --> 00:50:16.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but sometimes they run up against a better team,

1105
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:18.679
<v Speaker 3>and I think Mississippi may have been the better team.

1106
00:50:18.800 --> 00:50:20.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I don't know.

1107
00:50:20.800 --> 00:50:23.159
<v Speaker 3>People are very distraught about what's going on right now,

1108
00:50:23.400 --> 00:50:26.400
<v Speaker 3>and with softball, with softball, with you know, all the

1109
00:50:26.519 --> 00:50:29.000
<v Speaker 3>transfers of the situation, how it ended.

1110
00:50:29.400 --> 00:50:29.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

1111
00:50:29.960 --> 00:50:32.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm not there, and I don't I don't know Caitlin

1112
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:34.280
<v Speaker 3>from and you know, we talked to her a few times,

1113
00:50:34.320 --> 00:50:35.119
<v Speaker 3>but I don't know.

1114
00:50:35.159 --> 00:50:37.199
<v Speaker 2>And I think it's just more difficult than what people think.

1115
00:50:37.440 --> 00:50:40.880
<v Speaker 4>It's way difficult, and and and and and the money

1116
00:50:40.920 --> 00:50:43.159
<v Speaker 4>issue that's that that's come up. I mean, look at

1117
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:45.159
<v Speaker 4>look at what Texas Tech. You know, they're in the

1118
00:50:45.159 --> 00:50:47.119
<v Speaker 4>they're in the championship game because they went and paid

1119
00:50:47.119 --> 00:50:49.559
<v Speaker 4>million a million dollars for a picture. Now, I hope

1120
00:50:49.559 --> 00:50:52.760
<v Speaker 4>that whoever gave her that million dollars if they win

1121
00:50:52.840 --> 00:50:55.519
<v Speaker 4>the national championship, that it was that they that it's

1122
00:50:55.880 --> 00:50:57.039
<v Speaker 4>worth well worth it to them.

1123
00:50:57.079 --> 00:50:59.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, it wouldn't be to me what she's back for.

1124
00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:01.800
<v Speaker 2>One hundred million. Yeah million.

1125
00:51:01.920 --> 00:51:05.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So you know, but you know they're gonna lose players,

1126
00:51:06.039 --> 00:51:06.880
<v Speaker 4>Steve and there.

1127
00:51:07.079 --> 00:51:08.519
<v Speaker 2>You know, we probably I'm sure we haven't.

1128
00:51:08.639 --> 00:51:11.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, no, we had, Jenny Dalton said

1129
00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:15.239
<v Speaker 3>she I think she put sometimes we don't know things right.

1130
00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Maybe there are a few that needed to leave.

1131
00:51:17.480 --> 00:51:20.239
<v Speaker 4>But you know, you when you're Arizona and you don't

1132
00:51:20.239 --> 00:51:22.280
<v Speaker 4>have the money to keep them, you lose your best

1133
00:51:22.280 --> 00:51:26.119
<v Speaker 4>players every year and you get players to replace them,

1134
00:51:26.719 --> 00:51:29.280
<v Speaker 4>and and and then not on like football, right, they

1135
00:51:29.280 --> 00:51:32.039
<v Speaker 4>can't you know, they can't seem to find the ace

1136
00:51:32.159 --> 00:51:35.320
<v Speaker 4>pitcher because that ace pitcher is going to get money

1137
00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:36.280
<v Speaker 4>from somewhere else.

1138
00:51:36.679 --> 00:51:38.159
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, and it's tough.

1139
00:51:38.159 --> 00:51:40.880
<v Speaker 4>It's it's a at a at a sport like softball,

1140
00:51:41.000 --> 00:51:44.519
<v Speaker 4>or even baseball. I think that's a bigger factor than

1141
00:51:44.599 --> 00:51:49.280
<v Speaker 4>say football and basketball, because in basketball, Arizona can compete, right,

1142
00:51:49.559 --> 00:51:51.679
<v Speaker 4>they can get players, and they can pay players, and

1143
00:51:51.719 --> 00:51:54.719
<v Speaker 4>I think in football to a degree, not to an

1144
00:51:54.760 --> 00:51:57.280
<v Speaker 4>Alabama and Ohio State degree, but enough to keep them

1145
00:51:57.280 --> 00:52:01.480
<v Speaker 4>to where they're Arizona softball. When when you've got a

1146
00:52:01.639 --> 00:52:04.679
<v Speaker 4>program like Texas Tech handing a million dollars to somebody,

1147
00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:08.400
<v Speaker 4>or the money that Oklahoma players are getting you, it's

1148
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:09.960
<v Speaker 4>hard for you to keep your players.

1149
00:52:10.199 --> 00:52:13.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, well that's that we got to go. Yeah, yeah, okay,
