1
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Good evening, everybody, and welcome up to another episode of

2
00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:31.079
<v Speaker 1>Fire Up. I hope you're all fired up as I am.

3
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:36.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh, we are, Candy, You're back from vacation. We be waiting.

4
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:43.200
<v Speaker 2>We've been waiting for you. We're waiting. We're still waiting.

5
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.439
<v Speaker 2>And I know that y'all had a fantastic time, and

6
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:48.600
<v Speaker 2>I hope that you did and you deserved it.

7
00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:52.119
<v Speaker 1>Well, thank you. I appreciate that. And with that being said,

8
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:55.679
<v Speaker 1>I actually prepped a little bit tonight. We actually have

9
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:59.679
<v Speaker 1>two pictures that I'm gonna share with everybody. The first

10
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:02.920
<v Speaker 1>picture was taken this is Scott and I. We were

11
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:06.439
<v Speaker 1>on an excursion and this is Norway in the background,

12
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.400
<v Speaker 1>and this is not filtered or anything like that. This

13
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:13.760
<v Speaker 1>is the actual like colors. It was unbelievable. And then

14
00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>here is a picture. This is a double decker waterfall

15
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:24.760
<v Speaker 1>in Iceland. And we were in Norway and Iceland and

16
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>one of the things they were saying is this all

17
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:30.959
<v Speaker 1>this water is from one of the glaciers in Iceland.

18
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:36.200
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately, Iceland only has one big glacier left, and

19
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>they're saying because of the global warming that by twenty

20
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:44.200
<v Speaker 1>seventy it might not have any glaciers left, which would

21
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.959
<v Speaker 1>be sad because then all the waterfalls would go. And

22
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.760
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, so I figured I would just share those

23
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>two photos with both you gentlemen tonight and the rest

24
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:54.079
<v Speaker 1>of the audience.

25
00:01:55.200 --> 00:02:00.200
<v Speaker 2>I love them, Sorry, I loved them. They literally, like

26
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:03.680
<v Speaker 2>you said, they're not AI generated, but they certainly do

27
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:04.599
<v Speaker 2>look that way.

28
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:07.239
<v Speaker 1>I know, the colors.

29
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that waterfall it looks like a ship literally

30
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.759
<v Speaker 2>got stuck there and was frozen over by ice before

31
00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:22.680
<v Speaker 2>literally is how that that comes across to me? That picture?

32
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:26.479
<v Speaker 1>Well, and the one thing I will say is Scott

33
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:30.680
<v Speaker 1>and I did a bunch of small, well not always small.

34
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:33.319
<v Speaker 1>We did a bunch of videos that we will slowly

35
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:36.759
<v Speaker 1>be putting up on the YouTube channel. So everybody watch

36
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.759
<v Speaker 1>for those, turn on your notifications and so you can

37
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:43.240
<v Speaker 1>see some of them. He interviewed. He interviewed a couple

38
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:47.159
<v Speaker 1>of tour guides, one in Amsterdam, one or two, and

39
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>a couple in Norway, a couple in Iceland. It's just

40
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:54.360
<v Speaker 1>really interesting and then for us to show you the sites,

41
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:58.960
<v Speaker 1>So watch for those notifications and those videos to go

42
00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:06.520
<v Speaker 1>come up on the UH station. Okay, and then what's up, guys.

43
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we got a few people chopping it up over

44
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:11.000
<v Speaker 2>here in the chat.

45
00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:14.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, we got a lot of people in chat.

46
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:21.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you what, y'all, buckle up, get comfortable, because

47
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 2>it's about time to get fried on fire up. We

48
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:29.000
<v Speaker 2>haven't even dove into the sports topics yet. My goodness,

49
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:35.120
<v Speaker 2>can you only imagine we were just getting started around here, folks,

50
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:38.159
<v Speaker 2>y'all tune in. Let's go some here. I know you ready,

51
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:39.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm ready.

52
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:40.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm always ready.

53
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.759
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So our first topic, I'm gonna it's gonna be

54
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:47.199
<v Speaker 1>leading off with what the title was. So I read

55
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:50.520
<v Speaker 1>an article that Dion Sanders now is coming out and

56
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.400
<v Speaker 1>saying he believes there should be a salary cap for

57
00:03:54.520 --> 00:04:01.080
<v Speaker 1>the college football He says it creates an unfit advantage

58
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:05.560
<v Speaker 1>obviously if one team is paying, you know, their players

59
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>x amount and another team can pay him x amount plus.

60
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 1>So your thoughts, Samir, will start with you, your thoughts about

61
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:18.439
<v Speaker 1>should there be a salary cap in college football?

62
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:23.839
<v Speaker 3>I mean he's right, and yeah, he is Deon Sanders,

63
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 3>and there's a big brand name that comes with that,

64
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:31.600
<v Speaker 3>So that alone is able to attract guys like a

65
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:36.360
<v Speaker 3>Travis Hunter or recently a Julian Lewis a five star

66
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:41.040
<v Speaker 3>quarterback recruit to a school, even in a place or

67
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 3>school such as Colorado, who may not have the football

68
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:52.279
<v Speaker 3>what's the word, the correct word, may not have the

69
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 3>football acumen that.

70
00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 2>That was the word I was about to say.

71
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:05.600
<v Speaker 3>But even with that, you still have an unfair advantage

72
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:16.160
<v Speaker 3>with the Georgia's, Alabama's, Ohio State and others being those

73
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:20.959
<v Speaker 3>who are the wealthiest schools being basically being able to

74
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:26.199
<v Speaker 3>buy whoever they want. It creates an unfair advantage in

75
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.120
<v Speaker 3>that compartment. And it's all and without it or a

76
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:35.879
<v Speaker 3>salary cap would also make a coach's job easier, because look,

77
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:40.519
<v Speaker 3>all these guys want to play, they all want to

78
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:44.040
<v Speaker 3>get paid, so when that opportunity arises. So let's say

79
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:50.839
<v Speaker 3>you are a four star defensive tackle at Georgia. Chances

80
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:54.279
<v Speaker 3>are if you're at Georgia, you're a good player, and

81
00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:56.879
<v Speaker 3>you have a hard time making it up the depth chart,

82
00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:02.360
<v Speaker 3>like you've got maybe two or three future NFL guys

83
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:09.759
<v Speaker 3>ahead of you, like you are going to either use

84
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 3>the nil money as a tool for them to get

85
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:17.319
<v Speaker 3>you to stay, or you're going to transfer and try

86
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:21.639
<v Speaker 3>to get more playing time. And I think with the

87
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:23.759
<v Speaker 3>way it is set up. Now, I'm for an I L.

88
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:26.759
<v Speaker 3>I think it's I think it's I think we need

89
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.199
<v Speaker 3>to have ni l's to give the players a chance

90
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:33.680
<v Speaker 3>to get their fair share of money. But I think

91
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:35.839
<v Speaker 3>it needs to be regulated. There does need to be

92
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:38.879
<v Speaker 3>a salary cap. Not only that, but also I think

93
00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:43.040
<v Speaker 3>if you get an NIL deal, you have to play

94
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:46.079
<v Speaker 3>at that school for two years. So yeah, the salary

95
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:48.600
<v Speaker 3>cap is a good idea. And then then I would

96
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:49.759
<v Speaker 3>add another bonus to it.

97
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:52.439
<v Speaker 1>Okay, good points, JD.

98
00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:57.399
<v Speaker 2>Your thoughts, uh, Samir, Just to play right into what

99
00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:02.480
<v Speaker 2>you were saying there, I completely agree. If a player

100
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:10.360
<v Speaker 2>goes to Furman University. Just for example, let's say I've

101
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:16.399
<v Speaker 2>got a player he went to Furman and he gets

102
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, looked at or recruited by a bigger school,

103
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.160
<v Speaker 2>but he's not really in the portal and they kind

104
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:28.959
<v Speaker 2>of entice him to hit the portal. And even if

105
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:33.000
<v Speaker 2>that weren't the case, even if they don't, you know,

106
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:38.480
<v Speaker 2>tamper to use that dirty word, tamper, Even if they

107
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:44.000
<v Speaker 2>don't tamper, shouldn't the school that gave him a scholarship

108
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:48.959
<v Speaker 2>and put food in his mouth and tried to coach

109
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:51.560
<v Speaker 2>him up, tried to give him a chance to play football.

110
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Shouldn't all those coaches and that school and everything be

111
00:07:56.319 --> 00:08:02.920
<v Speaker 2>compensated for you taking a player away from them. It

112
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:05.839
<v Speaker 2>would be like, Okay, so I'm a guardian. I garden,

113
00:08:06.199 --> 00:08:09.399
<v Speaker 2>got I got tomatoes, I got cucumbers, I got squashed.

114
00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:13.920
<v Speaker 2>This in comparison, and I'll throw it back to you

115
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:16.680
<v Speaker 2>guys right after this. This in comparison, though, to me,

116
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:22.759
<v Speaker 2>would be like, Hey, that's a really nice tomato seed

117
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:27.120
<v Speaker 2>you planted there. I see that it's growing into a plant.

118
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:29.720
<v Speaker 2>So I think I want to take that plant. I

119
00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:33.519
<v Speaker 2>want to buy that plant for me, and I'm gonna

120
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:35.919
<v Speaker 2>use it to my advantage. And I'm gonna be the

121
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:40.679
<v Speaker 2>one who gets the fruit from the trees of that vegetable,

122
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:45.759
<v Speaker 2>that fruit whatever, because that is what's happening now. There

123
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:50.480
<v Speaker 2>are what we call feeder schools, yeah, in college football,

124
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:53.720
<v Speaker 2>and it's because of NIL and the portal. And I'm

125
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:58.399
<v Speaker 2>all for players making money. You won't catch me making

126
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:02.200
<v Speaker 2>no flak about players make money. The NC DOUBLEA has

127
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:06.600
<v Speaker 2>benefited from them for way too long. And I told

128
00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:08.879
<v Speaker 2>Candy earlier, I'll go ahead and say it right now.

129
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:13.720
<v Speaker 2>This whole raschual face on situation for my game Cocks

130
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:17.279
<v Speaker 2>is crazy. If if I'm gonna call out the NC

131
00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:19.960
<v Speaker 2>double A, I'll go ahead and do it now. NC DOUBLEA,

132
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:23.840
<v Speaker 2>you can go ahead and get cooked real quick. But

133
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.879
<v Speaker 2>for you to leave this young man in limbo for

134
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:31.639
<v Speaker 2>six months, not knowing what he needs to do, not

135
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:35.159
<v Speaker 2>knowing if he's playing college football, not knowing if he

136
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:38.360
<v Speaker 2>has already passed the point to where he can get

137
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:43.480
<v Speaker 2>into the NFL. Like NC DOUBLEA, you at least owe

138
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:48.480
<v Speaker 2>this man an answer at this point, I don't care

139
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:51.320
<v Speaker 2>if it's yes or no. I don't I don't care.

140
00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.279
<v Speaker 2>I want the guy to play yes because I'm a

141
00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:57.120
<v Speaker 2>Gamecock fan. I think he's a great running back. But

142
00:09:57.720 --> 00:10:00.960
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the day, it's about the end A.

143
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:06.159
<v Speaker 2>They need to answer to this way soon, and so yes,

144
00:10:06.200 --> 00:10:09.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm all for players making money. I'm all for the portal,

145
00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:15.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm all for all that good stuff. Great great response

146
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:18.000
<v Speaker 2>by Samir. I mean, sir, I don't know where else

147
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:18.679
<v Speaker 2>to go from there.

148
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I agree the one thing I agree that players should

149
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:30.159
<v Speaker 1>get compensated. My issue is is they're still in school

150
00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:32.480
<v Speaker 1>and we forget about that, like they're supposed to be

151
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:35.720
<v Speaker 1>going to school for school, but they're not. Let's face it, there,

152
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:39.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they're they're in sports, they are taking classes.

153
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>How serious they are and stuff like that, it remains

154
00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>to be seen. Some of them do finally graduate, some

155
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:50.399
<v Speaker 1>of them don't. Some of them go back after the fact,

156
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:55.000
<v Speaker 1>but they're not professionals yet. They're actually in school, and

157
00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:57.559
<v Speaker 1>I think that we we kind of lose sight of that.

158
00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 1>So but I definitely agree there should be a salary cap,

159
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:08.679
<v Speaker 1>because yes, it is an unfair advantage. I mean, let's

160
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:11.919
<v Speaker 1>face it, you can have one confident or one con

161
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.919
<v Speaker 1>Let's just take one conference, and the conference that I'm

162
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.639
<v Speaker 1>most familiar with obviously would be the Big Ten. Look

163
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:21.279
<v Speaker 1>at you have the big schools like Ohio State and

164
00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:24.519
<v Speaker 1>the Michigan's and then you have some of the smaller schools.

165
00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:29.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, Wisconsin is not the elite the Ohio State,

166
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, and it's going to have a different So

167
00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:34.919
<v Speaker 1>would they have unfair advantages? Not only do they have

168
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:38.799
<v Speaker 1>an unfair advantage because they might have a long, longer program,

169
00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:43.480
<v Speaker 1>longer storied program, more championships underneath their belt, but now

170
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:48.639
<v Speaker 1>they also might have more nil money to dish out,

171
00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:52.200
<v Speaker 1>So not only are they you know, and how competitive

172
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:55.000
<v Speaker 1>then is that conference going to be? And how is

173
00:11:55.039 --> 00:11:59.960
<v Speaker 1>that going to change the conference and the competitiveness in it?

174
00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:03.039
<v Speaker 1>And yes, I agree that there has to be some

175
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:07.919
<v Speaker 1>kind of regulations. I think then is flying by the

176
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:09.960
<v Speaker 1>seat of their pants like a like a lot of

177
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.120
<v Speaker 1>different companies all of a sudden, you know, now there's AI.

178
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.759
<v Speaker 1>So now companies are trying to refocus, and Okay, how

179
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 1>is that going to adjust us? How is that going

180
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.679
<v Speaker 1>to affect us? And as we're going where you're coming

181
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:25.840
<v Speaker 1>up with new regulations and new you know, laws or whatever.

182
00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:30.879
<v Speaker 1>But definitely has to be some kind of uh yeah.

183
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:33.919
<v Speaker 3>And I feel like this is all new to everyone,

184
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:38.000
<v Speaker 3>including the NCAA. So this you know, three or four

185
00:12:38.080 --> 00:12:40.480
<v Speaker 3>year period of NIL has kind of been the trial run.

186
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:42.919
<v Speaker 3>And I think sooner or later they're going to make

187
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:48.519
<v Speaker 3>adjustments because there had because I mean, the original extreme

188
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:53.759
<v Speaker 3>of everyone benefits except the players was wrong. But I

189
00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:57.559
<v Speaker 3>feel like this is close to maybe another extreme where

190
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:02.440
<v Speaker 3>the players are almost milking the system basically, like where

191
00:13:02.440 --> 00:13:06.240
<v Speaker 3>does it stop? Like eventually, I mean, eventually we're gonna

192
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:10.080
<v Speaker 3>have high schoolers getting NIL deals, Like where does it

193
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:13.600
<v Speaker 3>in states like Georgia, Texas, Florida count Where does it stop?

194
00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 3>There a boundary.

195
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:20.879
<v Speaker 2>There was high school players already getting an IL deals

196
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:25.679
<v Speaker 2>though to samirity exactly what you're saying. Sorry to interrupt you,

197
00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:28.720
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, I can't continue, Samir, but yeah, there's already

198
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:35.840
<v Speaker 2>scholars getting NIL deals. Let's trickle down.

199
00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:36.960
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm.

200
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:44.639
<v Speaker 1>Do you think less of these players M A L

201
00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:49.720
<v Speaker 1>players will graduate? Do you think graduation rates will go

202
00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:53.440
<v Speaker 1>down because they're starting to earn money and now they're like, ooh,

203
00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I like this the money in my hand. Let's try

204
00:13:56.840 --> 00:13:58.559
<v Speaker 1>and declar. There's no way to.

205
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:02.039
<v Speaker 3>Look at it, but I think I think there's a

206
00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:07.879
<v Speaker 3>chance it goes up. Graduation rates go up because now

207
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:12.639
<v Speaker 3>players who are good enough to go to the NFL

208
00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:17.320
<v Speaker 3>will not be so hard pressed to declare for the

209
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 3>draft after they red shirt and then play two years.

210
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:23.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean, who knows. Ay, maybe if I play well enough,

211
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:28.240
<v Speaker 3>I can get a newer and a bigger NIL deal

212
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.679
<v Speaker 3>from either my current school or from a different school.

213
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:39.080
<v Speaker 3>After that two year deal I suggested earlier, and I

214
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:43.759
<v Speaker 3>can get more money. I can finish school and get

215
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:48.639
<v Speaker 3>a degree, and I can potentially increase my draft stock

216
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:51.200
<v Speaker 3>from where it may have been a year or two ago.

217
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:01.879
<v Speaker 2>So that's one way we'll get with, Yeah, Samir and

218
00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:04.679
<v Speaker 2>p digits over here dropping wisdom on everybody.

219
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:07.080
<v Speaker 3>We pens there.

220
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I love.

221
00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:16.080
<v Speaker 3>Of There is a possibility that you hear rumors about it,

222
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:18.879
<v Speaker 3>mainly throughout the NFL and the NBA, where you have

223
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:24.759
<v Speaker 3>these players parents and or agents or both talking about

224
00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:29.240
<v Speaker 3>if a certain team has a reputation for being a

225
00:15:29.320 --> 00:15:34.519
<v Speaker 3>dysfunctional franchise and they have the number one pick, like

226
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:37.200
<v Speaker 3>you could have a scenario with the nil and that

227
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.679
<v Speaker 3>could be the downside of what I'm talking about, that

228
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:44.240
<v Speaker 3>that player or their agent or parent could say, Hey,

229
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:47.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, I'm not playing for that team. We're gonna

230
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:51.120
<v Speaker 3>stay another year, which in a way would take away

231
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.759
<v Speaker 3>the competitive purpose or the parody of a league like

232
00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.039
<v Speaker 3>the NFL. Like there was a rumor that came out

233
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:02.639
<v Speaker 3>not too long ago that Can Williams dad didn't want

234
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:07.559
<v Speaker 3>him playing for the Bears. Like like like, let's say hypothetically,

235
00:16:13.080 --> 00:16:18.840
<v Speaker 3>and I don't think this will happen, but hypothetically, the

236
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:22.159
<v Speaker 3>New York Jets end up with the number one pick,

237
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:24.039
<v Speaker 3>and I think they're gonna be a lot better than

238
00:16:24.080 --> 00:16:27.039
<v Speaker 3>getting in one pick actually, but it's just a hypothetical

239
00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:29.399
<v Speaker 3>because the New York Jets for a while have had

240
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:37.159
<v Speaker 3>a reputation for being dysfunctional. Woody Johnson has a bad

241
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:42.960
<v Speaker 3>reputation around the NFL in regards to what he's done

242
00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:48.960
<v Speaker 3>as an owner. So what if Arch Manning pulls a

243
00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:52.360
<v Speaker 3>knee line says, I don't want to play for the Jets,

244
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:59.679
<v Speaker 3>I'm staying another year at Texas because that organization is dysfunctional.

245
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:05.039
<v Speaker 3>I'm not declaring you know that that could be a scenario.

246
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, absolutely, I completely agree. It certainly could. And

247
00:17:16.799 --> 00:17:19.359
<v Speaker 2>I didn't even get to the Deon Sanders part. Yeah,

248
00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:23.400
<v Speaker 2>kudos to him for mentioning the NIO and the transport

249
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:28.079
<v Speaker 2>portal stuff the way he did, because he's not singing

250
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:31.440
<v Speaker 2>the same tune that he was a while ago when

251
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:34.119
<v Speaker 2>he was talking about how he's bringing his Louis Vaton

252
00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:39.000
<v Speaker 2>luggage and like everything's gonna be well and good in Colorado.

253
00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:42.960
<v Speaker 2>He he understands now he's got to build this thing

254
00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:54.039
<v Speaker 2>brick by brick by the dirty sea words chemistry, culture, commitment, camaraderie, competition, courtesy, complacency.

255
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:58.759
<v Speaker 2>Bro I got them all all the sea words. I'll

256
00:17:58.839 --> 00:18:01.160
<v Speaker 2>knock them sun guns out the part that is what

257
00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:06.680
<v Speaker 2>college football is about. That's what it's always supposed to

258
00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:14.000
<v Speaker 2>be about, and it's changing, and it'll lose fans because

259
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.880
<v Speaker 2>of it. I don't know where they're gonna go. Maybe

260
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:20.240
<v Speaker 2>they'll start watching soccer. I don't know where they're gonna go,

261
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:24.680
<v Speaker 2>because if they're a die hard college football fan that

262
00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:28.079
<v Speaker 2>gets turned off by this, that means they're already over

263
00:18:28.119 --> 00:18:33.400
<v Speaker 2>the NFL and they watch college football because they don't

264
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.279
<v Speaker 2>like the whole thought of all the millions of dollars

265
00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:42.799
<v Speaker 2>they make for doing this. And then if they quit

266
00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:48.880
<v Speaker 2>watching it from there, like where do you go? You

267
00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:53.000
<v Speaker 2>go back to baseball? Where are you going in that situation?

268
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:53.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

269
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:04.119
<v Speaker 1>Mm hm m hm. Okay, Southern j D. I know

270
00:19:04.200 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 1>you have a topic. You wanna shut it up?

271
00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:14.359
<v Speaker 2>I would love to. As a matter of fact. All right,

272
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:18.960
<v Speaker 2>ladies and gentlemen, First of all, make sure you hit like, follow, share, subscribe.

273
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:23.559
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna get candy. Not don't show it just yet.

274
00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:24.839
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

275
00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:28.799
<v Speaker 2>Well we'll get it to you, Tom. I'm gonna paint

276
00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:32.039
<v Speaker 2>this story here, okay, and then we'll dial it up

277
00:19:32.119 --> 00:19:34.519
<v Speaker 2>and we'll see what kind of reaction we get from it.

278
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:45.759
<v Speaker 2>So NASCAR has a huge inconsistency versus consistency problem. Every

279
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:47.519
<v Speaker 2>once in a while they want to tell you that

280
00:19:47.599 --> 00:19:51.079
<v Speaker 2>this is the rule, and then every once in a

281
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:55.559
<v Speaker 2>while they want to tell you this is not the rule. Well,

282
00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:01.680
<v Speaker 2>the rule is always driver safety. Until this past weekend

283
00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:09.319
<v Speaker 2>at Chicago, where they raced on a short track, Cody

284
00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:17.000
<v Speaker 2>where hit into a tire barrier going almost one hundred

285
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:24.000
<v Speaker 2>miles per hour. He even said I need help the

286
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:30.519
<v Speaker 2>moment he crashed and was trapped. Yet NASCAR waited thirty

287
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:36.599
<v Speaker 2>five seconds for the leader to take the white flag

288
00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:45.720
<v Speaker 2>and them to ultimately call the caution. Was this staged?

289
00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:51.799
<v Speaker 2>Is the NASCAR becoming wrestling or is it just a

290
00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:58.920
<v Speaker 2>consistency problem? Guys? If you're trapped under that car, in

291
00:20:58.960 --> 00:21:05.039
<v Speaker 2>that under that tire barrier, if you're Cody Ware, do

292
00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:10.359
<v Speaker 2>you want NASCAR to call that caution? Oh?

293
00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:13.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, definitely. It's not only consistency problems, as you mentioned,

294
00:21:13.559 --> 00:21:22.200
<v Speaker 3>it's also I think a safety problem, a big safety problem,

295
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:23.160
<v Speaker 3>especially when you're.

296
00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.759
<v Speaker 2>Dealing with He says he can push back, I bring it.

297
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:29.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean my thing is, especially when you're dealing with

298
00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:32.359
<v Speaker 3>cars that move at a very high speed and very

299
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:35.200
<v Speaker 3>close to one. I mean, I don't know really anything

300
00:21:35.200 --> 00:21:37.240
<v Speaker 3>about NASCAR like that, to be honest, but I know

301
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:37.759
<v Speaker 3>that you know.

302
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:43.480
<v Speaker 1>You want me to put this video up now, Yeah,

303
00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:44.920
<v Speaker 1>let's put it up.

304
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, let's go into it. Yep, all those other cars

305
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:58.039
<v Speaker 2>are in control, and then I don't know how well

306
00:21:58.079 --> 00:22:02.200
<v Speaker 2>people can see it from my screen, but there's just

307
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:07.160
<v Speaker 2>like this little blur. It zips across the screen. You

308
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:11.640
<v Speaker 2>can see all the other cars, but you can barely

309
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:18.640
<v Speaker 2>see Cody where crashing into that. How was that not

310
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:20.640
<v Speaker 2>a caution? Can you?

311
00:22:20.720 --> 00:22:23.240
<v Speaker 3>Can you see it? For some reason?

312
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:26.559
<v Speaker 1>You see it gonna take us off and make it

313
00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:27.599
<v Speaker 1>a little bit bigger.

314
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:31.720
<v Speaker 2>Hey, let me see it. I can actually, I can

315
00:22:31.799 --> 00:22:38.759
<v Speaker 2>go back to the page. Let's see, and I will

316
00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:41.160
<v Speaker 2>bring it up full blown.

317
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:55.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow, Yeah, it's not only consistency issue, more important

318
00:22:56.519 --> 00:22:59.039
<v Speaker 3>the issue if you are in that post.

319
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:10.759
<v Speaker 2>So, yeah, did we get the full video across there? Sorry?

320
00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that full video.

321
00:23:16.920 --> 00:23:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was about say, I got it frozen on

322
00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:20.559
<v Speaker 2>my screen right now.

323
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's frozen on the screen right now. I'm here too.

324
00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:30.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, No, yeah, that's fine, that's yeah, because I paused

325
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:32.960
<v Speaker 2>it coming back, So I think, candy, Yeah, we can

326
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:35.519
<v Speaker 2>remove that from Yeah.

327
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh now I gotta put us all back.

328
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:44.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there we go, there we go. Hey, we did

329
00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:51.599
<v Speaker 2>it and we figured it out. H As soon as

330
00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:54.279
<v Speaker 2>NASCAR can't drive an instant caution a few hours ago,

331
00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:58.599
<v Speaker 2>now not anymore, that is really hard.

332
00:23:58.359 --> 00:23:58.880
<v Speaker 3>To eat.

333
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:07.039
<v Speaker 2>Maccraft exactly. He said he needed help the moment he crashed.

334
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:15.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yes, yeah, like that's ah, that's a bad management

335
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:20.200
<v Speaker 3>from NASCAR. So because I mean the.

336
00:24:21.640 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Minute of the driver says I need help.

337
00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:25.000
<v Speaker 3>You got to get him help.

338
00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, I agree.

339
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:31.960
<v Speaker 2>They they even have him trained. They got to drop

340
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:37.880
<v Speaker 2>their window net. But yes, Maccraft, I don't know if

341
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:43.720
<v Speaker 2>you've missed that altogether, but Cody Ware literally said need help.

342
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:48.559
<v Speaker 2>There's a whole video he literally he said, need help.

343
00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:55.359
<v Speaker 2>If that's not like need help, like if that's not

344
00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:01.759
<v Speaker 2>a driver speaking on comms blah blah blah blah whatever else,

345
00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 2>the drivers are in constant radio communication. Yes, exactly, he

346
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:12.160
<v Speaker 2>said he needed help. Like you're trying to argue my point,

347
00:25:12.200 --> 00:25:17.039
<v Speaker 2>but you're proving my point. There is video of him

348
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:22.960
<v Speaker 2>saying need help. NASCAR said they waited to see if

349
00:25:23.000 --> 00:25:25.359
<v Speaker 2>he was gonna call it or be able to back

350
00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:29.200
<v Speaker 2>up and continue what happened.

351
00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:31.359
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm.

352
00:25:34.079 --> 00:25:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's something you don't want to mess with. I mean,

353
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:38.240
<v Speaker 1>if if a driver says they need help, you never

354
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:40.640
<v Speaker 1>know that if they could be injured themselves and they

355
00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:51.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, they don't know it better. So but yeah,

356
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:53.839
<v Speaker 1>NASCAR is not one of one of the sports I

357
00:25:53.920 --> 00:25:55.799
<v Speaker 1>watched too frequently.

358
00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:01.160
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, but we can all relate you being consistent

359
00:26:01.480 --> 00:26:07.880
<v Speaker 2>for umpires and referees and yeah, like Nascar and safety. Hey,

360
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:11.519
<v Speaker 2>if you don't call it a certain way, I'm good

361
00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:16.519
<v Speaker 2>with it. Call it a certain way, but don't tell

362
00:26:16.519 --> 00:26:18.880
<v Speaker 2>me it's drivers safety. One week and you throw a

363
00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 2>caution really fast and then in this particular case, you

364
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:29.240
<v Speaker 2>wait thirty five seconds. That is not calling it caution

365
00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:30.039
<v Speaker 2>really fast.

366
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:37.440
<v Speaker 1>That is not speaking of consistency. Did you guys hear

367
00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:40.880
<v Speaker 1>that they're gonna use some robots in the All Star Game?

368
00:26:43.079 --> 00:26:43.519
<v Speaker 2>We did?

369
00:26:43.759 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I did, so, Samir, let's talk. Let's talk All Star games.

370
00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:53.799
<v Speaker 1>Since I know it's in your backyard, it's.

371
00:26:53.680 --> 00:26:54.720
<v Speaker 3>Right in our backyard.

372
00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Literally, he listen. He's a Braves guy and he knows Braves. Literally,

373
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:06.240
<v Speaker 2>the All Star Game is in Sameir's backyard.

374
00:27:05.880 --> 00:27:11.599
<v Speaker 3>Right, Yeah, yeah, So, I think the fact that they

375
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:16.920
<v Speaker 3>are using the robot umpires for the All Star Game

376
00:27:17.039 --> 00:27:19.559
<v Speaker 3>shows that, I mean, the league definitely is thinking about

377
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:22.680
<v Speaker 3>using or implementing robot umpires on the regular basis in

378
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:25.400
<v Speaker 3>the future. It may not be a matter of if,

379
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:32.119
<v Speaker 3>but possibly more a matter of when. So and I

380
00:27:32.160 --> 00:27:35.920
<v Speaker 3>think what better experiment for the league than to do

381
00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:40.079
<v Speaker 3>it at the All Star Game at a national scale.

382
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:43.920
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, it's first All Star Game in Atlanta in

383
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:50.200
<v Speaker 3>twenty five years. Even with how pitiful the Braves have

384
00:27:50.319 --> 00:27:53.799
<v Speaker 3>been this year, we do have three All Stars. Chris

385
00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:57.759
<v Speaker 3>Sale is unfortunately injured for action rib as we all know,

386
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:03.559
<v Speaker 3>Ronald Cunya Junior. I think the fact that he's in

387
00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:08.039
<v Speaker 3>it is definitely one of the lone bright spots of

388
00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:10.519
<v Speaker 3>this season, him being able to come back from his

389
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:15.279
<v Speaker 3>ACL injury, hitting over three thirty so far, already eleven

390
00:28:15.359 --> 00:28:23.599
<v Speaker 3>home runs, and he's starting in his home stadium. Matt

391
00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:28.759
<v Speaker 3>Olson is someone I've been hard on the last four years,

392
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:35.400
<v Speaker 3>someone who has regardless of how you may feel about him,

393
00:28:35.440 --> 00:28:39.359
<v Speaker 3>I know he's a polarizing figure in the Braves fan base.

394
00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:43.559
<v Speaker 3>He is in it as well, not a starter, but

395
00:28:43.599 --> 00:28:46.680
<v Speaker 3>he is in it as well, not only in his

396
00:28:46.759 --> 00:28:51.079
<v Speaker 3>own stadium, but also as someone who grew up in

397
00:28:51.119 --> 00:28:55.279
<v Speaker 3>the Atlanta area, so yeah, he's in it as well.

398
00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:59.960
<v Speaker 3>So those are really two on bright spots. Ronald is

399
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:02.440
<v Speaker 3>also in the Home Run Derby. This will be his

400
00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:04.640
<v Speaker 3>third time doing it. He was in it in twenty

401
00:29:04.720 --> 00:29:09.400
<v Speaker 3>nineteen twenty twenty two. Both times he ended up losing

402
00:29:09.400 --> 00:29:12.079
<v Speaker 3>the Pete Alonzo who is not in it this year?

403
00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:15.880
<v Speaker 3>Quite frankly, it's somebody who I wish was in it.

404
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:17.839
<v Speaker 3>He's been in it virtually every year has been in

405
00:29:17.880 --> 00:29:20.880
<v Speaker 3>the league, and that would have been fun to see

406
00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:24.599
<v Speaker 3>another Alonzo Acuna matchup, potentially in the home Run Derby,

407
00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:29.880
<v Speaker 3>but unfortunately we're going to miss out on that. And also,

408
00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:35.680
<v Speaker 3>notably the manager, Brian Snicker, there have been some rumors

409
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:40.119
<v Speaker 3>about this potentially being his last season as manager, as

410
00:29:40.119 --> 00:29:43.920
<v Speaker 3>his contract is ending in He's been the organization for

411
00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:46.680
<v Speaker 3>forty nine years, so there is a lot of rumors

412
00:29:46.720 --> 00:29:50.480
<v Speaker 3>and he's made some hints that he may retire at

413
00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:53.920
<v Speaker 3>the end of the season, so some are seeing as

414
00:29:53.960 --> 00:30:01.319
<v Speaker 3>possibly as like a gesture or a send off, along

415
00:30:01.359 --> 00:30:04.119
<v Speaker 3>with the fact that it is in his team's own ballpark,

416
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:11.359
<v Speaker 3>so another notable headline. The current Braves first baseman Mattilson

417
00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:15.960
<v Speaker 3>is in it. The former Braves first baseman, Freddie Freeman

418
00:30:16.680 --> 00:30:19.519
<v Speaker 3>will be in it in his old ballpark and he

419
00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:23.599
<v Speaker 3>will be the starting first baseman. So some notable headlines there.

420
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:29.039
<v Speaker 2>I will say this right under your point what you

421
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:32.920
<v Speaker 2>were just talking about. Atlanta Braves Twitter has been lit

422
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:38.319
<v Speaker 2>up the last few days with Freddie Freeman being outside

423
00:30:38.599 --> 00:30:43.319
<v Speaker 2>of Truest Park there at the Battery, him being pictured

424
00:30:43.519 --> 00:30:48.279
<v Speaker 2>in an LA uniform coming and starting first base in

425
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:53.920
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta Braves Stadium again. It's clear that Braves fans we

426
00:30:54.039 --> 00:30:58.480
<v Speaker 2>all still love the guy. So they're all gonna get

427
00:30:58.519 --> 00:31:02.039
<v Speaker 2>their chance to go see him again, and albeit in

428
00:31:02.039 --> 00:31:07.480
<v Speaker 2>a meaningless All Star game, but they're gonna they're gonna

429
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:10.440
<v Speaker 2>see him play again and a lot of people will

430
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:12.319
<v Speaker 2>be really excited about it.

431
00:31:13.039 --> 00:31:17.319
<v Speaker 3>I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah, And it's it's kind of

432
00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:19.839
<v Speaker 3>a polarizing topic on Braves Twitter, if you know what

433
00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:23.400
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if you've seen it, it is still a

434
00:31:23.400 --> 00:31:28.440
<v Speaker 3>polarizing topic. And I mean, it's not all Mattison's folk,

435
00:31:28.480 --> 00:31:30.200
<v Speaker 3>but that's kind of what happens when the other guy

436
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:34.000
<v Speaker 3>was here for twelve years when's an MVP multiple All

437
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:37.279
<v Speaker 3>Stars wins the world series kind of grows up in

438
00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:42.799
<v Speaker 3>our organization while his replacement comes here and he hasn't

439
00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:43.799
<v Speaker 3>won a playoff series.

440
00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:51.319
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I'm sorry. I'm over here going back and

441
00:31:51.359 --> 00:31:54.200
<v Speaker 2>forth with Matt Crab, mattra listen, bro, you know, listen,

442
00:31:56.079 --> 00:31:59.519
<v Speaker 2>I will gladly give your chance to debate this one

443
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:02.519
<v Speaker 2>of these day. But you're not winning this one. Okay,

444
00:32:03.400 --> 00:32:09.920
<v Speaker 2>anything you say I have debunked. Okay, clearly he didn't

445
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:13.359
<v Speaker 2>need medical help. Blah blah blah blah blah. I said, yeah,

446
00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:16.720
<v Speaker 2>but my point again. NASCAR said they were waiting to

447
00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:19.160
<v Speaker 2>see if he could get the car going. He told

448
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:24.119
<v Speaker 2>them he couldn't get the car going, So like, I've

449
00:32:24.319 --> 00:32:30.720
<v Speaker 2>debunked at all. And then he says, oh, was the

450
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:34.680
<v Speaker 2>car going to be a hazard? Yes, that's caution. Flag

451
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:40.240
<v Speaker 2>was waived after they took the white flag. They couldn't

452
00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:44.960
<v Speaker 2>continue to let them race around the course. Matt Crown,

453
00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:52.799
<v Speaker 2>So yes, the car clearly deserved a caution because they

454
00:32:52.839 --> 00:33:04.920
<v Speaker 2>called it thirty five seconds too late. That's the point. Yeah, y'all,

455
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:05.680
<v Speaker 2>don't listen.

456
00:33:05.720 --> 00:33:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Man, back to the All Star game.

457
00:33:13.599 --> 00:33:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Yes, indeed, I am again not happy about it being

458
00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:23.400
<v Speaker 2>in Atlanta. It should have been there years ago. They

459
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:25.640
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't have to come back here now.

460
00:33:26.960 --> 00:33:32.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and it's also kind of unfortunate that of all years,

461
00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:34.720
<v Speaker 3>it's when we're having our worst season in eight years,

462
00:33:34.759 --> 00:33:37.680
<v Speaker 3>when well, the year we were gonna have it before

463
00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:40.920
<v Speaker 3>originally was the year we won the World Series. But

464
00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:43.680
<v Speaker 3>even then we were under five hundred at that All

465
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:46.880
<v Speaker 3>Star break. So this point, it is what it is.

466
00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:52.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna roof for Ronald in the home run derby.

467
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:58.880
<v Speaker 2>And take well, I guess this is the point. Next

468
00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:02.559
<v Speaker 2>time we need to cancel the All Star Game in

469
00:34:02.599 --> 00:34:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta and we'll win a World Series.

470
00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:08.559
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's gonna need a lot more than that.

471
00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:14.199
<v Speaker 2>We should have known as soon as they didn't cancel

472
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:16.199
<v Speaker 2>it this year, though, we should have known we were toast.

473
00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:22.400
<v Speaker 2>You can't listen. I'm a fan. I'm a pessimist fan.

474
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:27.480
<v Speaker 2>I can't get too many nice things. Okay, it's never

475
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:32.239
<v Speaker 2>all of my teams winning all at one time. It's

476
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:38.760
<v Speaker 2>either yeah, it's like two thirds half maybe if I'm lucky,

477
00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:42.840
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, we can't be spoiled with our fandom. Candy.

478
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:46.280
<v Speaker 2>You might be blessed like that. You old Milwaukee girl.

479
00:34:48.039 --> 00:34:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't know, we've gone through some lean years.

480
00:34:51.559 --> 00:34:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I would say, you know, yes, the Packers have won

481
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:57.519
<v Speaker 1>a couple of them, but the Brewers haven't. I mean,

482
00:34:57.639 --> 00:34:59.800
<v Speaker 1>they made the World Series, but they lost us, you know,

483
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.679
<v Speaker 1>Saint Louis back in the day, back in the eighties,

484
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:09.719
<v Speaker 1>so they haven't. Uh, And yes, the Bucks have won

485
00:35:09.800 --> 00:35:13.320
<v Speaker 1>two championships and won lately. I mean, I the one

486
00:35:13.320 --> 00:35:15.639
<v Speaker 1>thing that I would say about the NBA, at least

487
00:35:15.639 --> 00:35:18.199
<v Speaker 1>at this point, and normally I don't. I'm not a

488
00:35:18.280 --> 00:35:22.039
<v Speaker 1>huge NBA person. I don't watch a lot of NBA

489
00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:25.320
<v Speaker 1>because we always call it the National Drama League. But

490
00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:32.719
<v Speaker 1>they have a new champions for every year for the

491
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:35.480
<v Speaker 1>last seven years, and you can't say that about a

492
00:35:35.480 --> 00:35:39.039
<v Speaker 1>lot of the other sports. Sometimes you have these dynasties,

493
00:35:39.159 --> 00:35:45.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, in football and stuff like that. But so

494
00:35:45.519 --> 00:35:49.360
<v Speaker 1>that I think is interesting. But yeah, the eighty two

495
00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Brewers got beat by the Cardinals. Yeah that was painful,

496
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:56.239
<v Speaker 1>but it took seven games, so at least, you know,

497
00:35:57.239 --> 00:36:01.679
<v Speaker 1>but we're not. So it just depends on the sport.

498
00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Like you know, like Detroit, the Lions haven't won it,

499
00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:07.920
<v Speaker 1>but yet look at you know, the Pistons have they

500
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:10.199
<v Speaker 1>had such a good run, and the Tigers have. So

501
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:14.639
<v Speaker 1>it depends on your where you're from, what your team is, And.

502
00:36:16.679 --> 00:36:20.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, yeah, I feel like with Atlanta, like the

503
00:36:21.079 --> 00:36:24.280
<v Speaker 3>three main teams here have just been a microcosm of

504
00:36:24.360 --> 00:36:27.360
<v Speaker 3>like a little bit of everything. Like you've had the Braves,

505
00:36:27.400 --> 00:36:31.599
<v Speaker 3>who have been for the most part, very good since

506
00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:35.679
<v Speaker 3>the nineties. They've won two championships and even then, with

507
00:36:35.800 --> 00:36:40.119
<v Speaker 3>all the talent they've had come through the organization, you

508
00:36:40.159 --> 00:36:42.800
<v Speaker 3>could argue that they could have that they should have

509
00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:47.119
<v Speaker 3>maybe four, possibly five or six with how many opportunities

510
00:36:47.119 --> 00:36:51.039
<v Speaker 3>they've blown, especially in October. Then you've got the Hawks.

511
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:54.119
<v Speaker 3>It feels like since they've gotten here in sixty eight,

512
00:36:54.199 --> 00:36:58.679
<v Speaker 3>they've just haven't been great, haven't been horrible. They've always

513
00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:02.440
<v Speaker 3>just been the middle of the road Frances except for

514
00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:05.880
<v Speaker 3>maybe three or four seasons. And then you've got the

515
00:37:05.920 --> 00:37:09.800
<v Speaker 3>bottom of the barrel, which are the Falcons. Sixty years,

516
00:37:10.360 --> 00:37:14.800
<v Speaker 3>only fourteen playoff appearances, no Super Bowls, worst loss in

517
00:37:14.840 --> 00:37:19.480
<v Speaker 3>sports history. They've had multiple opportunities to win one, they've

518
00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:25.199
<v Speaker 3>blown it. But yeah, but I mean even with the

519
00:37:25.239 --> 00:37:30.000
<v Speaker 3>Braves winning two championships and how great twenty twenty one was.

520
00:37:30.920 --> 00:37:33.679
<v Speaker 3>I feel like if the Falcons were to get one,

521
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:37.960
<v Speaker 3>it would mean so much for the city and the

522
00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:43.039
<v Speaker 3>overall sports landscape here, Like this city would go nuts

523
00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:44.639
<v Speaker 3>if the Falcons got one.

524
00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:51.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, y'all would probably be climbing up grease light poles

525
00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:55.519
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like Philadelphia fans do. That's best guess of

526
00:37:55.559 --> 00:37:59.840
<v Speaker 2>how that would go down. Somebody in Atlanta would do something.

527
00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:03.639
<v Speaker 3>Raid would be absolutely insane if they give them.

528
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:11.440
<v Speaker 2>I completely agree Candy P Digits. He reminds you there

529
00:38:12.719 --> 00:38:17.280
<v Speaker 2>that was the nineteen eighty two breve Or Brewers. They

530
00:38:17.320 --> 00:38:20.119
<v Speaker 2>got beat by the Cardinals. He's a he's a Cardinals fan,

531
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:20.800
<v Speaker 2>by the way.

532
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah I figured that when he came back and said,

533
00:38:25.760 --> 00:38:27.519
<v Speaker 1>no one cares how many games it took.

534
00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, no, I love it. So we're

535
00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:34.639
<v Speaker 2>all catching flak. I'm catching flak from Matt Craft, You're

536
00:38:34.679 --> 00:38:38.760
<v Speaker 2>catching it from p Digits. We got some mirr. He's

537
00:38:38.840 --> 00:38:43.079
<v Speaker 2>catching flak from all of us because, oh man, I

538
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:46.159
<v Speaker 2>wish I could believe in Atlanta's sports anymore.

539
00:38:46.519 --> 00:38:51.280
<v Speaker 3>It's hard, man, It's hard. It is hard. It is hard.

540
00:38:52.159 --> 00:38:57.039
<v Speaker 2>But then hey, I'm a Panthers fan. I mean, but

541
00:38:57.119 --> 00:39:01.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm an Atlanta Braves fan, and people will say, well,

542
00:39:01.400 --> 00:39:06.079
<v Speaker 2>how can you do that? Okay, arbiter of sports fandom.

543
00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:10.119
<v Speaker 2>This is how it happens. You're a little kid from

544
00:39:10.199 --> 00:39:14.599
<v Speaker 2>Lake Greenwood, you like baseball. The only thing that comes

545
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:20.039
<v Speaker 2>on is Atlanta Braves Baseball on TBS back when I

546
00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:25.519
<v Speaker 2>was growing up, So you watch Braves baseball on TBS,

547
00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:29.840
<v Speaker 2>you were a Braves fan. And then I only knew

548
00:39:29.880 --> 00:39:33.599
<v Speaker 2>the Panthers. I mean I wasn't around for the Delle

549
00:39:33.719 --> 00:39:39.199
<v Speaker 2>junior days when the Redskins were the only team shown

550
00:39:40.880 --> 00:39:47.000
<v Speaker 2>here in the South. Nineteen ninety five, I think was

551
00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:52.840
<v Speaker 2>the Panthers first season, maybe ninety six. And I remember

552
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:56.480
<v Speaker 2>my first ever bet, y'all. I was in the third grade.

553
00:39:57.519 --> 00:40:01.840
<v Speaker 2>It was the Carolina Panthers bet. We bet Panthers versus

554
00:40:01.880 --> 00:40:07.159
<v Speaker 2>Packers Packers. His team, Panthers, My team. I lost. The

555
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:12.599
<v Speaker 2>Packers beat us. But that was my first ever bet.

556
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:16.559
<v Speaker 3>True story, yeah, I mean mine was kind of I mean,

557
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:19.960
<v Speaker 3>my my thing was kind of different. Like it was like,

558
00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:23.320
<v Speaker 3>I mean, obviously I'm from Atlanta, so it was like

559
00:40:23.320 --> 00:40:26.360
<v Speaker 3>two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine. It was

560
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:29.679
<v Speaker 3>like the beginning of like the Matt Ryan era. And

561
00:40:29.760 --> 00:40:33.360
<v Speaker 3>Mike Smith, Thomas de Mittroll, Roddy White and Michael Turner

562
00:40:33.400 --> 00:40:35.920
<v Speaker 3>and all those guys, and it was like that was

563
00:40:35.960 --> 00:40:38.960
<v Speaker 3>like the beginning of when we had five straight winning seasons,

564
00:40:39.119 --> 00:40:43.679
<v Speaker 3>went to an NFC Championship in twenty twelve, the Georgia

565
00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:47.039
<v Speaker 3>Dome would be rocking on Sundays like those are just

566
00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:50.719
<v Speaker 3>some fun times, like and if we can get like

567
00:40:51.159 --> 00:40:53.920
<v Speaker 3>and this is like obviously like that's been the home team,

568
00:40:53.920 --> 00:40:57.599
<v Speaker 3>but it's really been those times where it's like like

569
00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:01.440
<v Speaker 3>that was like eight nine ten year old me kind

570
00:41:01.440 --> 00:41:06.519
<v Speaker 3>of made like it was like like those times made

571
00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:09.119
<v Speaker 3>eight nineteen year old me along the fact that it

572
00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:14.039
<v Speaker 3>was the home team here like choose that seam. And

573
00:41:14.079 --> 00:41:17.800
<v Speaker 3>it was like like like, you know, we're having all

574
00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:21.000
<v Speaker 3>these winning seasons, We're going to the playoffs, like like

575
00:41:21.079 --> 00:41:22.440
<v Speaker 3>this is gonna be a thing every year.

576
00:41:22.960 --> 00:41:28.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, don't work like that, right, No? Yeah, I think

577
00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:31.079
<v Speaker 2>it was p digits over here. He said it perfectly.

578
00:41:31.360 --> 00:41:36.039
<v Speaker 2>Let's see if I can find it again. Hum, what

579
00:41:36.159 --> 00:41:39.239
<v Speaker 2>was it? Oh? Yeah, here you go, only two World

580
00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Series and thirty five years. But he fails to mention

581
00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:49.119
<v Speaker 2>the I don't know, thirty division titles that we won

582
00:41:49.320 --> 00:41:50.960
<v Speaker 2>in those thirty five years.

583
00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:58.119
<v Speaker 3>Like yeah, yeah, five first round exits exactly.

584
00:41:58.360 --> 00:42:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Like, and people got mad at me before, Samir because

585
00:42:02.519 --> 00:42:06.039
<v Speaker 2>I've said the Braves are the cowboys of the MLB.

586
00:42:07.480 --> 00:42:11.119
<v Speaker 3>I would say either the cowboys. Another good comparison for

587
00:42:11.159 --> 00:42:14.760
<v Speaker 3>them would be the Green Bay Packers. Like what I

588
00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:18.320
<v Speaker 3>mean by that is they do, for the most part,

589
00:42:18.320 --> 00:42:23.840
<v Speaker 3>a good job of developing their in house talent. And

590
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:28.800
<v Speaker 3>for all the talent that they've had, two championships is good,

591
00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:30.800
<v Speaker 3>but they should have more.

592
00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:34.679
<v Speaker 2>M H. That's whole that's my whole point.

593
00:42:35.599 --> 00:42:38.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but it's like and then, and then I keep

594
00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:41.599
<v Speaker 3>bringing up the first round exit argument on twitters, like, oh, well,

595
00:42:41.639 --> 00:42:46.639
<v Speaker 3>the playoffs are are a crap shoot, It's just random. Like, No,

596
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:50.519
<v Speaker 3>a trend over twenty five thirty years is not random.

597
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:53.880
<v Speaker 3>Did you know that since two thousand the Braves have

598
00:42:53.920 --> 00:43:03.480
<v Speaker 3>been to the playoffs in seventeen of those years, sixteen

599
00:43:03.559 --> 00:43:07.039
<v Speaker 3>seventeen of those years, In all but two or three

600
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:09.719
<v Speaker 3>of those years they've gone one and done. That is

601
00:43:09.760 --> 00:43:15.320
<v Speaker 3>not random. That is a trend. That is an organizational trend. H.

602
00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:19.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, No, it's not randomness. It's not a crap shoot.

603
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:22.000
<v Speaker 3>That is a trend right.

604
00:43:22.079 --> 00:43:27.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, even there they went, you know, number one seed,

605
00:43:29.079 --> 00:43:31.039
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think being the number one seed in

606
00:43:31.079 --> 00:43:34.480
<v Speaker 2>the MLB playoffs is a good thing at all. Taking

607
00:43:34.519 --> 00:43:38.880
<v Speaker 2>that bybe week, get out of rhythm. And then like

608
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:44.239
<v Speaker 2>literally it's always the wildcard team who's playing hot baseball.

609
00:43:44.760 --> 00:43:50.400
<v Speaker 2>M h. It's always something like that, very rarely, unlike

610
00:43:50.440 --> 00:43:52.920
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers obviously last year, I mean the.

611
00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:55.639
<v Speaker 3>Number one seed as well. And then the Astros the

612
00:43:55.719 --> 00:43:57.440
<v Speaker 3>year they won it in twenty two, the first year

613
00:43:57.440 --> 00:44:00.840
<v Speaker 3>of the expanded postseason, they won it. So that's always

614
00:44:00.840 --> 00:44:01.719
<v Speaker 3>been my argument.

615
00:44:02.760 --> 00:44:08.719
<v Speaker 2>And well, even think about though the Dodgers, they are

616
00:44:09.559 --> 00:44:12.400
<v Speaker 2>on the on an equal run as the Braves as

617
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:16.719
<v Speaker 2>far as I'm concerned. They went a lot, a lot.

618
00:44:16.599 --> 00:44:19.639
<v Speaker 3>Of opportunities before last year, I will say.

619
00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:29.519
<v Speaker 2>That, yeah, and they just finally won one. Recently, we

620
00:44:29.639 --> 00:44:31.679
<v Speaker 2>got Candy. We over Candy. Wake up.

621
00:44:32.039 --> 00:44:34.119
<v Speaker 1>But here, I'm here, I'm here.

622
00:44:35.079 --> 00:44:37.639
<v Speaker 2>You listen. I know you got a flight in the morning, y'all.

623
00:44:38.360 --> 00:44:39.159
<v Speaker 1>I do, I do.

00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Candy is going to a wedding. Oh wow, yeah, they've

625
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:48.920
<v Speaker 2>already been going. Let's see, what are they even talking?

626
00:44:49.079 --> 00:44:57.480
<v Speaker 1>Six am plight crazy? But yeah, it's a it's a quick, quick,

628
00:45:01.360 --> 00:45:05.440
<v Speaker 1>so where and we haven't been in Detroit for I

629
00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:07.519
<v Speaker 1>think it's been year and a half, two years, so

630
00:45:08.440 --> 00:45:11.079
<v Speaker 1>it's time to quick see some family. But it's a

631
00:45:11.119 --> 00:45:12.360
<v Speaker 1>quick in and a quick out.

632
00:45:13.079 --> 00:45:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Right. Well, that's exactly what we're doing on this show

633
00:45:16.480 --> 00:45:19.360
<v Speaker 2>this evening, Candy. So I'll tell you what I am

634
00:45:19.400 --> 00:45:25.559
<v Speaker 2>good to end. Well, let's do to yep, my toes whatever. Yeah,

640
00:45:44.800 --> 00:45:46.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, definitely.

641
00:45:48.559 --> 00:45:50.199
<v Speaker 1>Oh I have to remember that next time.

642
00:45:50.519 --> 00:45:51.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, I'll help you out.

643
00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:56.639
<v Speaker 1>I got you my town. It's the segment that I started,

644
00:45:56.679 --> 00:45:58.920
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of people are rolling with it because

645
00:45:58.920 --> 00:46:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I've seen it even on differ broadcast. But Samir, obviously

646
00:46:03.039 --> 00:46:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the All Star Game, but what else is happening in

647
00:46:05.039 --> 00:46:05.519
<v Speaker 1>your town?

648
00:46:06.079 --> 00:46:08.000
<v Speaker 3>So we've got the All Star Game. The Braves are

649
00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:12.360
<v Speaker 3>still a joke, lost five or six, the truest part

650
00:46:12.519 --> 00:46:19.280
<v Speaker 3>to the Angels and the Orioles, including getting shut out

651
00:46:19.280 --> 00:46:23.199
<v Speaker 3>twice during that span nine to six, lost in extra

652
00:46:23.239 --> 00:46:27.079
<v Speaker 3>innings to Baltimore game they probably should have won one

653
00:46:27.119 --> 00:46:30.280
<v Speaker 3>where they left the had loaded bases with no outs,

654
00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:33.480
<v Speaker 3>only got one run across and that was on a

655
00:46:33.679 --> 00:46:41.599
<v Speaker 3>ground out by Jerkson Profar. Then the other night they lost,

656
00:46:41.960 --> 00:46:45.840
<v Speaker 3>they got beat bad by the Athletics. It was I

657
00:46:45.880 --> 00:46:50.159
<v Speaker 3>believe ten to one until home run by Jerkson Profar

658
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:55.280
<v Speaker 3>ultimately saved them from being shut out. Didyer Fuentes twenty

659
00:46:55.360 --> 00:47:01.800
<v Speaker 3>year old picture was they called him up and probably

660
00:47:01.840 --> 00:47:05.559
<v Speaker 3>did him a disservice by letting him stay up and

661
00:47:05.639 --> 00:47:13.360
<v Speaker 3>pitch after his second start in New York his estimated

662
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:18.559
<v Speaker 3>time arrival was twenty twenty seven eight. They call him up,

663
00:47:18.599 --> 00:47:20.280
<v Speaker 3>and after that second start they should have went and

664
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:23.320
<v Speaker 3>sent him back down to Gwinnette, and that could possibly

665
00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:26.599
<v Speaker 3>hurt his development. I hope he doesn't. He's got the tangibles,

666
00:47:26.599 --> 00:47:28.960
<v Speaker 3>he's got this stuff. He just needs more time to develop.

667
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:35.360
<v Speaker 3>But again that just shows just another like head scratching

668
00:47:35.400 --> 00:47:37.920
<v Speaker 3>move by this front office, where that's just been the

669
00:47:38.000 --> 00:47:42.320
<v Speaker 3>norm the past couple of years. It's a joke. Then

670
00:47:42.360 --> 00:47:46.000
<v Speaker 3>the trade deadline's coming up, teams are inquiring about, mainly

671
00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:51.360
<v Speaker 3>Sean Murphy and Marcello Zuna, who's gotten expiring contract. I

672
00:47:51.400 --> 00:47:54.320
<v Speaker 3>know Double A said that, and the rumor is that

673
00:47:54.360 --> 00:47:57.239
<v Speaker 3>they're not going to move anyone who has a contract

674
00:47:57.320 --> 00:48:00.000
<v Speaker 3>past twenty five. So it seems like if they're gonna

675
00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:04.760
<v Speaker 3>to move anyone, it'll be Ozuna or possibly right Sale Iglesias.

676
00:48:04.800 --> 00:48:09.079
<v Speaker 3>But who knows. That could change given how the team plays.

677
00:48:10.639 --> 00:48:15.199
<v Speaker 3>They still look horrible. The Hawks. I wasn't able to

678
00:48:15.239 --> 00:48:17.679
<v Speaker 3>come on last week, but they had one of the

679
00:48:17.679 --> 00:48:21.800
<v Speaker 3>better offseasons in the seasons in the NBA. They definitely

680
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:25.480
<v Speaker 3>got better. Nikaile Alexander Walker a guy who can come

681
00:48:25.519 --> 00:48:29.000
<v Speaker 3>off the bench, can defend well. You look at the

682
00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:33.599
<v Speaker 3>contending teams and while we do have a Dison Daniels,

683
00:48:33.679 --> 00:48:37.360
<v Speaker 3>or had eight Dison Daniels, they've got multiple dices. In

684
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:39.199
<v Speaker 3>what I mean by that, I mean by guys who

685
00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:42.679
<v Speaker 3>can play a role and play it really well, a

686
00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:47.360
<v Speaker 3>lot of depth. Nikaile Alexander provides that Luke Canard forty

687
00:48:47.440 --> 00:48:52.239
<v Speaker 3>three percent from downtown. I feel like you can come

688
00:48:52.280 --> 00:48:57.840
<v Speaker 3>off the bench and shoot for us, and then Falcons

689
00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:02.679
<v Speaker 3>on their side. It's been quiet. I know Kirk Cousins

690
00:49:02.800 --> 00:49:10.519
<v Speaker 3>was recently in the second season of Quarterback and really

691
00:49:10.559 --> 00:49:14.639
<v Speaker 3>we didn't learn anything new from the end of the season.

692
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:18.079
<v Speaker 3>So when it was revealed on his appearance during Good

693
00:49:18.079 --> 00:49:23.360
<v Speaker 3>Morning Football that he was playing hurt to now and

694
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:27.760
<v Speaker 3>my stands hasn't changed on that. Yeah, he should have

695
00:49:27.800 --> 00:49:32.239
<v Speaker 3>been more upfront about his injury, but the blame ultimately

696
00:49:32.440 --> 00:49:35.559
<v Speaker 3>lies with Raheem Morris and the rest of the coaching

697
00:49:35.639 --> 00:49:42.000
<v Speaker 3>staff for allowing him to not only not be upfront

698
00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:45.400
<v Speaker 3>about his injury, but to leave him out there. He

699
00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:47.960
<v Speaker 3>should have been pulled that halftime with the Chargers game.

700
00:49:50.039 --> 00:49:52.000
<v Speaker 3>And that's it for my town.

701
00:49:54.000 --> 00:49:56.880
<v Speaker 1>JD, what is happening in your town?

702
00:49:57.880 --> 00:50:01.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, verst just quickly here, let me respond to yours,

703
00:50:02.400 --> 00:50:05.039
<v Speaker 2>because yeah, the Kirk Cousin thing, that was one thing

704
00:50:05.119 --> 00:50:06.760
<v Speaker 2>that we were going to bring up on the show.

705
00:50:08.119 --> 00:50:10.239
<v Speaker 2>So we'll well, we'll put it in our back pocket.

706
00:50:10.280 --> 00:50:14.840
<v Speaker 2>But what I was gonna quickly ask you though he

707
00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:18.800
<v Speaker 2>came out and said he felt misled by the Falcons.

708
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:21.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, and I tweeted this.

709
00:50:21.880 --> 00:50:27.480
<v Speaker 2>And then he though turned around and misled the Falcons, right,

710
00:50:28.199 --> 00:50:34.000
<v Speaker 2>So I mean to me that balance is out fifty.

711
00:50:34.559 --> 00:50:38.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Well, from a fan perspective, I felt misled watching

712
00:50:38.960 --> 00:50:41.639
<v Speaker 3>you play like Desmond Ridder for an entire month while

713
00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:43.599
<v Speaker 3>we're paying you one hundred million guaranteed.

714
00:50:44.920 --> 00:50:47.440
<v Speaker 2>But on another out there, yeah, yeah, and he said

715
00:50:47.519 --> 00:50:49.719
<v Speaker 2>he would even go. He said, if I would have

716
00:50:49.760 --> 00:50:52.360
<v Speaker 2>known they were gonna draft Pennies, I would have just

717
00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:53.880
<v Speaker 2>resigned with Minnesota.

718
00:50:54.199 --> 00:50:55.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we'll sit on a bench and count you're one

719
00:50:55.880 --> 00:50:59.480
<v Speaker 3>hundred million, Kirk. But on the other hand, like you're

720
00:50:59.480 --> 00:51:03.360
<v Speaker 3>doing just fine, dude. But on the other hand, I

721
00:51:03.519 --> 00:51:08.000
<v Speaker 3>just feel like, look, they made a business decision. That's

722
00:51:08.039 --> 00:51:10.880
<v Speaker 3>the way the NFL, and it seems like Kirk must

723
00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:14.480
<v Speaker 3>have forgot how we got his job in Washington in

724
00:51:14.519 --> 00:51:18.280
<v Speaker 3>the first place. They had spent a top pick on

725
00:51:18.440 --> 00:51:21.599
<v Speaker 3>RG three, and then they turned around and drafted you

726
00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:24.280
<v Speaker 3>in the fourth round. Then you ultimately ended up getting

727
00:51:24.320 --> 00:51:26.199
<v Speaker 3>that starting job a couple of years down the road.

728
00:51:26.840 --> 00:51:29.400
<v Speaker 3>So I guess it's a full circle moment, if you

729
00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:34.519
<v Speaker 3>want to put it that way. But again, yeah, and

730
00:51:34.719 --> 00:51:38.400
<v Speaker 3>this has kind of been a polarizing topic on Falcons

731
00:51:38.480 --> 00:51:42.760
<v Speaker 3>social media outlets, more specifically Falcons Twitter. You've got some

732
00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:45.880
<v Speaker 3>blaming Kirk, You've got some blaming the coaching staff. I

733
00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:48.920
<v Speaker 3>think both are at fault. Like I mentioned earlier, Yeah,

734
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:52.320
<v Speaker 3>put that guy's agent in the Hall of Fame. Generational

735
00:51:52.400 --> 00:51:52.920
<v Speaker 3>bag getter.

736
00:51:54.880 --> 00:51:57.599
<v Speaker 2>There is no better job than being a backup quarterback

737
00:51:57.639 --> 00:52:04.960
<v Speaker 2>in the NFL. Period, uh period, Uh, whatever it is.

738
00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:10.079
<v Speaker 2>The millennials say, yeah, being a backup quarterback is a

739
00:52:10.159 --> 00:52:15.760
<v Speaker 2>beautiful situation. Right, and Samir, you nailed it. Candy, you've

740
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:23.039
<v Speaker 2>nailed it. My town, So my town is not Sameir's town,

741
00:52:24.440 --> 00:52:28.719
<v Speaker 2>not the Atlanta town. No, I'm gonna talk about the

742
00:52:28.760 --> 00:52:35.480
<v Speaker 2>Carolina Panthers, and I don't think they can win the

743
00:52:35.599 --> 00:52:36.920
<v Speaker 2>NFC South this year.

744
00:52:37.920 --> 00:52:40.400
<v Speaker 3>I still think they're another year away. They've got the pieces,

745
00:52:40.440 --> 00:52:42.159
<v Speaker 3>but I still think they're another year away.

746
00:52:43.079 --> 00:52:49.079
<v Speaker 2>I honestly, based on the way Atlanta drafted and Tampa Bay,

747
00:52:50.880 --> 00:52:57.000
<v Speaker 2>it'll be between y'all two. The Saints. No, they're talking

748
00:52:57.000 --> 00:52:59.920
<v Speaker 2>about not starting Spencer Rattler, which would be the dumb

749
00:53:00.440 --> 00:53:05.920
<v Speaker 2>decision ever. He already started games last year. Yeah, Tyler

750
00:53:05.960 --> 00:53:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Shuck might be older, but he was playing in college.

751
00:53:10.039 --> 00:53:14.800
<v Speaker 2>That's not the NFL. So Spencer Rattler should be the

752
00:53:14.840 --> 00:53:19.320
<v Speaker 2>starter for the Saints, period, uh period.

753
00:53:19.559 --> 00:53:22.760
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean, if a guy you drafted high in

754
00:53:22.800 --> 00:53:25.519
<v Speaker 3>the second round this year. Can't beat twenty six year old,

755
00:53:25.519 --> 00:53:29.880
<v Speaker 3>can't beat out Spencer Rattler, Then I think it says,

756
00:53:30.199 --> 00:53:32.079
<v Speaker 3>and I think it makes that piclic a lot worse

757
00:53:32.119 --> 00:53:33.000
<v Speaker 3>than it already does.

758
00:53:33.519 --> 00:53:37.039
<v Speaker 2>Right, Spencer Ratler to me was a still in the

759
00:53:37.079 --> 00:53:40.880
<v Speaker 2>fifth round. Yeah, I'm sorry.

760
00:53:41.079 --> 00:53:42.440
<v Speaker 3>I was just never high on him.

761
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:47.159
<v Speaker 2>I watched him play every Saturday. You know that. I

762
00:53:47.199 --> 00:53:53.159
<v Speaker 2>mean that I saw Throsy made it. If you put

763
00:53:53.239 --> 00:54:01.760
<v Speaker 2>him with Patrick Mahomes's weapons, saying he could be Patrick Mahomes.

764
00:54:01.840 --> 00:54:06.920
<v Speaker 2>I will never say that, but he could be a

765
00:54:07.079 --> 00:54:10.920
<v Speaker 2>very above average quarterback in the NFL. He didn't have

766
00:54:11.000 --> 00:54:14.320
<v Speaker 2>nobody to throw to last year when he played in

767
00:54:14.360 --> 00:54:17.079
<v Speaker 2>New Orleans. He I mean, they were all injured.

768
00:54:19.039 --> 00:54:22.360
<v Speaker 3>We'll see.

769
00:54:23.360 --> 00:54:27.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So is that you done, Jeddy or yeah, yeah,

770
00:54:27.840 --> 00:54:28.360
<v Speaker 2>let's get out.

771
00:54:28.400 --> 00:54:31.840
<v Speaker 1>We're so for my town. I'm gonna say kudos to

772
00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:35.480
<v Speaker 1>my Milwaukee Brewers because they have a payroll of around

773
00:54:35.519 --> 00:54:38.440
<v Speaker 1>one hundred thousand, hundred and two thousand and they just

774
00:54:38.519 --> 00:54:42.000
<v Speaker 1>swept the LA Dodgers that have a payroll of over

775
00:54:42.079 --> 00:54:47.840
<v Speaker 1>three hundred thousand, So kudos to them. Kudos to Oh,

776
00:54:47.880 --> 00:54:53.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna I'm gonna pack his last name Mizerulowski. He's

777
00:54:53.119 --> 00:54:57.440
<v Speaker 1>a rookie pitcher that is doing phenomenal right now. I mean,

778
00:54:58.119 --> 00:55:00.480
<v Speaker 1>uh so, kudos to him. I hope he can up.

779
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:03.840
<v Speaker 1>And he's such got such a grounded personality too, from

780
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:08.840
<v Speaker 1>what I've read and seen. As far as the Milwaukee Bucks,

781
00:55:10.199 --> 00:55:13.639
<v Speaker 1>they've made some questionable calls this off season, so we'll

782
00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:17.320
<v Speaker 1>really see how that pays out. You know, letting eating

783
00:55:17.679 --> 00:55:23.719
<v Speaker 1>Damian Lillard's con contract twenty two million dollars a year

784
00:55:23.760 --> 00:55:25.880
<v Speaker 1>for the next couple of years is kind of a

785
00:55:25.880 --> 00:55:29.239
<v Speaker 1>little bit risky, I think, but I also understand, like

786
00:55:29.360 --> 00:55:34.199
<v Speaker 1>next week, they understand Giannis only has a window and

787
00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:36.679
<v Speaker 1>it's a window of only how many years, So they're

788
00:55:36.679 --> 00:55:39.679
<v Speaker 1>in a win now mode, so they they have to

789
00:55:39.800 --> 00:55:42.880
<v Speaker 1>figure out how to win now, and since Damien's not

790
00:55:42.920 --> 00:55:45.440
<v Speaker 1>going to be playing next year at all, they had

791
00:55:45.480 --> 00:55:47.920
<v Speaker 1>to do something. So while there's a lot of fans

792
00:55:47.960 --> 00:55:50.639
<v Speaker 1>out there that were upset that they let him go,

793
00:55:51.320 --> 00:55:54.960
<v Speaker 1>they also need to plan right now and get what

794
00:55:55.039 --> 00:55:58.039
<v Speaker 1>they can right now. So I kind of understand it,

795
00:55:59.480 --> 00:56:01.920
<v Speaker 1>whether you like it or not. It also allows him

796
00:56:01.960 --> 00:56:04.320
<v Speaker 1>to go rehab at home and be with his kids,

797
00:56:04.360 --> 00:56:07.559
<v Speaker 1>and we know that he's a big family man. So

798
00:56:09.599 --> 00:56:13.840
<v Speaker 1>and then as far as the Packers, well kudos. I'm

799
00:56:13.840 --> 00:56:17.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna say congratulations to Jordan Love because he actually got

800
00:56:17.840 --> 00:56:22.960
<v Speaker 1>married this offseason, So congratulations and we wish you the

801
00:56:23.000 --> 00:56:26.800
<v Speaker 1>best of luck in your marriage and of course on

802
00:56:26.880 --> 00:56:29.440
<v Speaker 1>the field, on and off the field. But with that said,

803
00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna do my normal plug for the South Florida Tribune.
