00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Bulldog Sports Page brought to you this morning by Orlando

6
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Harley Davidson location on Saturday.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a Chrome Coming twenty twenty twenty five. They're

10
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:31.280
<v Speaker 1>of them. And we're gonna have a bikini contest, full

11
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:34.719
<v Speaker 1>bar food trucks. It's gonna be a big party. I'm

12
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:38.159
<v Speaker 1>there start at one. I found some bw O koozies excellent,

13
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:41.039
<v Speaker 1>just a few left. So all right, hey, you know.

14
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:43.960
<v Speaker 3>Where your thoon? Are you wearing your thong out out there?

15
00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:46.359
<v Speaker 2>If you come out, I might. And now he's m

16
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:52.200
<v Speaker 2>seeing the contest, not participating. Taco speaking might be in

17
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.359
<v Speaker 2>a little cocky this morning because his yard signs are

18
00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:57.679
<v Speaker 2>gonna get to stay in support of the Orlando Magic

19
00:00:57.719 --> 00:00:58.560
<v Speaker 2>after the big win.

20
00:00:59.119 --> 00:01:02.280
<v Speaker 3>That's right, the best baketball gods have spoken. Taco does

21
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:05.560
<v Speaker 3>get to keep his yard signs up. The Magic's four

22
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:08.680
<v Speaker 3>game losing streak came to an end in a big

23
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:13.400
<v Speaker 3>way last night. They dominated the Sacramento Kings one thirty

24
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:21.640
<v Speaker 3>till the Frons Franz Wagner and Palo ban Caero were

25
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:25.680
<v Speaker 3>back to their old selves. Actually, Franz never went anywhere.

26
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.200
<v Speaker 3>The Magic shot fifty seven percent from the field and

27
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:32.400
<v Speaker 3>are you ready for this, the worst the worst three

28
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:35.719
<v Speaker 3>point shooting team in the league, fifty one point six

29
00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:39.239
<v Speaker 3>percent from three point range. For the Magic, they committed

30
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:41.959
<v Speaker 3>only eleven turnovers, eight of those came when the game

31
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:44.560
<v Speaker 3>was already decided late in the game. And again the

32
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:49.200
<v Speaker 3>Franz thirty one points in just three quarters. He was amazing,

33
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:54.959
<v Speaker 3>scoring in every way possible, drives, post ups, spot up,

34
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:59.239
<v Speaker 3>step backs, five of six from three point range. Palo

35
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 3>had twenty two three points and nine assists. So hopefully

36
00:02:03.400 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 3>this is a harbinger of things to come for the Magic.

37
00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:11.000
<v Speaker 3>Maybe Pallo's finally getting back in the swing of things,

38
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:15.080
<v Speaker 3>and hopefully again this will be the start of something big.

39
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.560
<v Speaker 2>Gonna get a little tougher with a quick turnaround tonight

40
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:18.479
<v Speaker 2>at Denver.

41
00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:21.840
<v Speaker 3>That's right at Denver, of course. Nicola Joak it's the

42
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.479
<v Speaker 3>best player in the league. We'll be waiting for the

43
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:29.439
<v Speaker 3>Magic tonight. Also, that game comes right after the trade deadline,

44
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:33.199
<v Speaker 3>which is today three o'clock. We've already seen, obviously a

45
00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:37.639
<v Speaker 3>flurry of action in the NBA, the Maverick shocking decision

46
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.840
<v Speaker 3>to trade Luka Doncics to the Lakers for Anthony Davis.

47
00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:45.159
<v Speaker 3>The Heat finally unloaded Jimmy Butler last night. They traded

48
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:49.280
<v Speaker 3>him the Golden State for Anthony Wiggins and some other assets.

49
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.240
<v Speaker 3>So we'll see what the Magic do today. The feeling,

50
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:56.360
<v Speaker 3>of course, is they need a shooter, because, as I

51
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:59.599
<v Speaker 3>mentioned ad nauseum, they are the worst three point shooting

52
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:03.000
<v Speaker 3>team the league. But my feelings are, and I've said

53
00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:06.479
<v Speaker 3>this on our show, I've written it, I say, don't

54
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:09.000
<v Speaker 3>panic if you're the Magic. I think the Magic will

55
00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:13.080
<v Speaker 3>organically get better in the final thirty games of the season.

56
00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:16.840
<v Speaker 3>And once they get Jalen Suggs back, which hopefully and

57
00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:20.199
<v Speaker 3>should be fairly quickly, you know that's gonna make them better.

58
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:24.520
<v Speaker 3>Pallo's been struggling since his return. You know that's not

59
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.759
<v Speaker 3>going to continue. So they'll get better when he gets

60
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.280
<v Speaker 3>back to his old self, which maybe we saw last night.

61
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:35.960
<v Speaker 3>So those two factors in itself will make the magic better.

62
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:39.599
<v Speaker 3>And why mess with the chemistry and camaraderie of this team.

63
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:41.560
<v Speaker 3>I say, wait and see what happens.

64
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you, Doug. I told Pat early on in

65
00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:48.120
<v Speaker 1>the show, I said, look my magic signs out in front.

66
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:50.439
<v Speaker 1>They were stuck in my garage three to five years.

67
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Couldn't find them. Clean the garage, knock the dust off them,

68
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:56.280
<v Speaker 1>put them in the yard. I think that's what the

69
00:03:56.280 --> 00:03:58.599
<v Speaker 1>magic's doing. They're knocking the dust off, just like my

70
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:01.560
<v Speaker 1>signs did. So it's a representation.

71
00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:05.120
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday telling some crap about the dirt in your yard

72
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.800
<v Speaker 2>was getting used to the signs or vice versa.

73
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:14.199
<v Speaker 3>Just like Pala Pala needs to get accustomed to his surroundings,

74
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:17.560
<v Speaker 3>the signs need to get a customed they're.

75
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:19.560
<v Speaker 1>They're knocking the dust off. I'm telling you the magic

76
00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:22.680
<v Speaker 1>are And you just wait once Suggs gets back, and

77
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.519
<v Speaker 1>then you think of years to come, I know, baby

78
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:28.439
<v Speaker 1>steps of it. Then you get mow back. Oh god,

79
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:30.560
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be allogger all the time.

80
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:34.959
<v Speaker 3>Well, one win, but we'll see what happensline.

81
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:37.839
<v Speaker 1>Maybe maybe with the trade head on we go and

82
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.879
<v Speaker 1>play Denver and grab that badass player they have and

83
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:41.920
<v Speaker 1>put them on our plane.

84
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Sure, yeah, just kidnap him. Huh.

85
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:46.560
<v Speaker 1>We'll get him in the trade. We'll give him half

86
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>a team, all right, dog? What else? Uh?

87
00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, yesterday was National Signing Day. It sort of flew

88
00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:57.959
<v Speaker 3>under the radar because quite frankly, it's not nearly as

89
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.399
<v Speaker 3>meaningful as it once was because most of them major

90
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:04.920
<v Speaker 3>college football recruits signed during the early signing period in December. However,

91
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:08.879
<v Speaker 3>the last of the recruits did sign yesterday. The final

92
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:13.199
<v Speaker 3>rankings for this year's class are in according to twenty

93
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:15.439
<v Speaker 3>four to seven sports dot com. In the state of Florida,

94
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.160
<v Speaker 3>the Gators had the highest ranked class at number eight,

95
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:25.439
<v Speaker 3>Miami number thirteen, FSU number nineteen dot dot dot. UCF

96
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:30.759
<v Speaker 3>way down at number seventy seven. Ucfs even below USF,

97
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.639
<v Speaker 3>which is number sixty four. The Nights are last in

98
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:37.680
<v Speaker 3>the Big twelve in recruiting and this isn't a surprise.

99
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:41.519
<v Speaker 3>Gus Malzon leaving right before early signing period in December

100
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:46.759
<v Speaker 3>that decimated UCF's high school recruiting class, and Scott Frost

101
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.480
<v Speaker 3>is now having to try to rebuild through the portal.

102
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.480
<v Speaker 3>So this this isn't gonna be a quick rebuild, Unlike

103
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.480
<v Speaker 3>the last time Scott Frost was the head coach. I mean,

104
00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.040
<v Speaker 3>he worked miracles when he came here before. It's a

105
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.839
<v Speaker 3>different landscape. He's gonna have to be a program builder

106
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:04.279
<v Speaker 3>this time.

107
00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of signing, there's an executive order of such signs yesterday,

108
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Bulldog good day for women's sports.

109
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:17.120
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, And I don't know what took this so long.

110
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.959
<v Speaker 3>I don't know why the sports into these themselves, like

111
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:25.720
<v Speaker 3>the NCUBA, the high school associations. Every I bet yes,

112
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:31.560
<v Speaker 3>transgender athletes, as President Trump signed the band yesterday, will

113
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:35.839
<v Speaker 3>not be allowed to compete in women's or girls sports

114
00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:41.759
<v Speaker 3>competitive sports moving forward, which I think everybody agrees with that,

115
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:47.480
<v Speaker 3>or most everybody, Republicans, Democrats, blacks, whites, Gators, seminoles. I

116
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:50.720
<v Speaker 3>think everybody agrees with this, and I don't know why

117
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:52.639
<v Speaker 3>it had to become a big political issue.

118
00:06:52.680 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 1>And I think if you don't agree with it, just

119
00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:59.079
<v Speaker 1>pull up on YouTube that boxing match where that trained

120
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:04.000
<v Speaker 1>boxer got her ass handed turbid dude, I'm sorry.

121
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:06.319
<v Speaker 2>He talked about that yesterday before he signed it in

122
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:09.800
<v Speaker 2>a room full of young athletes who were very happy

123
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.920
<v Speaker 2>to see this happen, and I will make a prediction

124
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.639
<v Speaker 2>here though, they will find a sympathetic judge somewhere who

125
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:17.279
<v Speaker 2>will temporarily block this order.

126
00:07:18.040 --> 00:07:22.560
<v Speaker 3>Well again, I've most of the major sporting entities from

127
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:27.720
<v Speaker 3>the US Olympic Committee. They've already imposed this band.

128
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:31.439
<v Speaker 2>So all right, we'll see all right in lightning home
