Speaker 1: In the Sports page with The Orlando Sentinel and FM
Speaker 1: ninety six to nine in the games Mike the Bulldog
Speaker 1: beyond you on jr R.
Speaker 2: So, gotta be honest, the Bulldog picked a really good
Speaker 2: week to take vacation, purposely done. Sports lull of sorts,
Speaker 2: no doubt about it, now that basketball and hockey have
Speaker 2: wrapped up for their seasons.
Speaker 1: And you know he does this every year. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with that. I don't blame him, man, it's perfect.
Speaker 1: But there was some sports there last night with soccer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, got plenty to cover. Still this morning, the United
Speaker 2: States men's team grabs a four to three shootout win
Speaker 2: over Costa Rica in the Gold Cup quarter final, so
Speaker 2: they'll be moving on. Good news for the US men's
Speaker 2: team as long as we're starting with soccer, I guess
Speaker 2: not so good news for Orlando City, who lost at
Speaker 2: home to Cincinnati two to one at the Purple Palace
Speaker 2: on Saturday night.
Speaker 3: Taco.
Speaker 1: Yeah, back to that game the US men's team. I
Speaker 1: actually watched the last half of that game and the
Speaker 1: shootout and everything, and that's I think that's like the
Speaker 1: replacement Goldie right now, How did.
Speaker 3: You happen to come across that I did.
Speaker 1: Because my buddies were texting on Saturday saying, hey, why
Speaker 1: don't we get together. The game starts at seven, and
Speaker 1: I thought, not a chance in hell, because it works
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna just, you know, chill it.
Speaker 2: How mad? I thought, why didn't I turn it on?
Speaker 2: So it was an excuse to, uh watch something and
Speaker 2: just chill for a while. It was great, that works.
Speaker 2: Let's see what else we got some NASCAR action from
Speaker 2: over the weekend. It was an early weekend Infinity Series race,
Speaker 2: was on a Friday night in Atlanta. Nick Sanchez gets
Speaker 2: that win, and then on Saturday night in the Cup race,
Speaker 2: Chase Elliott wins after passing Brad Kislowski on the final lap.
Speaker 2: This race took forever. It was loaded with rex and
Speaker 2: it just dragged on. Also, it was the start of
Speaker 2: this in season NASCAR bracket tournament challenge that they're doing.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the one that is even more confusing than
Speaker 1: something that's already confusing.
Speaker 2: I have tried and tried to sort through this, and
Speaker 2: I just don't understand exactly what they're doing. And I
Speaker 2: follow nascars, so I don't know if this grand experiment
Speaker 2: is going to be something that's going to go past
Speaker 2: this year's attempt at it. I give them credit, though,
Speaker 2: for trying something different.
Speaker 1: I give them credit for trying to interest some more people.
Speaker 1: And you are die hard. You'll you say that, you
Speaker 1: follow it? I say one step further, you're a die
Speaker 1: hard and if you can't understand it, yeah, that's not
Speaker 1: looking good.
Speaker 3: How about the F one.

Speaker 2: Antonelli is going to be penalized for next week's British
Speaker 2: Grand Prix at Silverstone. He'll be knocked back three places
Speaker 2: in the starting grid wherever he ends up qualifying for

Speaker 2: over the weekend. Lebron James is exercising his fifty two
Speaker 2: point six million dollar opt option for the upcoming twenty
Speaker 2: five to twenty six season. He will play for the Lakers,
Speaker 2: but anything beyond that probably seriously not going to happen.
Speaker 2: As Lebron is now forty years old going into his
Speaker 2: twenty third nbacson and and it really kind of got
Speaker 2: out there that his family would like him to, especially
Speaker 2: his wife, would like him to consider, you know, perhaps
Speaker 2: stepping away from the game after another season or two.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean not only playing the game.
Speaker 1: That even though we can't stand Lebron and a lot
Speaker 1: of people don't like him, he has played a very
Speaker 1: storied career very well, and and that and running the
Speaker 1: league at the same that's a lot.
Speaker 2: Being the commissioner, that's a lot on the plate at
Speaker 2: any given time. Fifty two point six million for the
Speaker 2: upcoming season, unbelievable. James Harden. Also, he has signed a
Speaker 2: new two year deal with the Clippers. He'll be making
Speaker 2: some serious bank as well, but he'll stay stay with
