Speaker 1: to sports from the weekend. It's all yours man, all right,
Speaker 1: let's overreact.
Speaker 2: Shay Gildess Alexander scores thirty four for OKC. They tie
Speaker 2: this series last night with Indiana. They won the game
Speaker 2: one twenty three to one oh seven. That series tied one.
Speaker 2: All the thunder now eighteen to two. Coming off a loss,
Speaker 2: of course, they lost Game one on that classic Tyres
Speaker 2: Haliburton shot. I told you then, I will tell you now.
Speaker 2: All right, that was one game for Indiana. OKAC will
Speaker 2: still still win this in a gentleman's sweep. They'll win
Speaker 2: at four to one. By the way, nobody's watching this series.
Speaker 2: TV ratings for Game one, even though it was a
Speaker 2: classic average four point seven rating eight point nine to
Speaker 2: one million on ABC. That was the lowest of the
Speaker 2: Nilsen era dating back to nineteen eighty eight. That's if
Speaker 2: you tank take out the COVID fueled ratings plummet in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty twenty twenty one got so just as we suspected,
Speaker 2: nobody's really watching.
Speaker 3: Remember that in twenty twenty twenty twenty one where they
Speaker 3: had the fake people in the crowd. We talked about
Speaker 3: them a couple months ago. That was horrible.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. So we'll see what happens from here on out.
Speaker 2: My Florida Panthers on Friday Night, Brad Marshan getting it
Speaker 2: done in double overtime.
Speaker 1: He scores the goal.
Speaker 2: The Panthers end up winning that game five four, and
Speaker 2: now Game three with the series tied one, all is
Speaker 2: tonight in South Florida. Lancheity you like tonight? Yeah, you'd
Speaker 2: take the home team, man. I think the fans in
Speaker 2: South Florida are probably gonna be eager to try to
Speaker 2: out vociferous what went on in Edmonton for those first
Speaker 2: two games. Yeah, the crowds at these games are unbelievable. Obviously,
Speaker 2: the Edmonton crowd was incredible. But you know what, in
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals last night, I don't know if you
Speaker 2: guys have okase. They said the decibel level last night
Speaker 2: was like a hundred and which is right. I think
Speaker 2: a standing right next to a chainsaw is like one
Speaker 2: hundred and ten. So yeah, the deciel levels incredible in
Speaker 2: these series. Uh, Orlando Pride, they went over the weekend
Speaker 2: one nil with a stoppage time goal on the Orlando
Speaker 2: City did not play over the weekend. They had the
Speaker 2: week off, so the Pride get back on the winning
Speaker 2: track they needed to do that. FSU and Miami both
Speaker 2: failed to make the College World Series. Florida State loses
Speaker 2: to Oregon State and Miami loses to Louisville, So we
Speaker 2: will have no teams in the College World Series out
Speaker 2: in Omaha. What else do we have from the weekend.
Speaker 2: Denny Hamlin wins the NASCAR race up in Michigan after
Speaker 2: he and Michael Jordan had had a setback in their
Speaker 2: lawsuit against NASCAR and the Charter System. But Denny Hamlin
Speaker 2: ends up winning, outlasting the competition at Michigan International Speedway.
Speaker 2: The big news over the weekend happened. Well, let's get
Speaker 2: into horse racing real quick journalism finish his second to Sovereign.
Speaker 2: What was that horse you were rooting for, Lynch?
Speaker 1: Oh, this was I don't even think Sandman was in it?
Speaker 1: Was it? I don't There's only eight horses in in
Speaker 1: that race. Did Pat you get to watch Mark Tremonti singing?
Speaker 1: Sounded great? I'm sure sounded great. I admiss it.
Speaker 2: By the way, I still don't understand why Sovereignty didn't
Speaker 2: run in the Preakdness. It won two of the three
Speaker 2: Triple crownd races but did not race in the Preakness.
Speaker 2: And they say it's better for the horses long term future.
Speaker 2: What could be better than being a triple crown winner?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 2: Yeah, so anyway, big news over the weekend college football.
Speaker 2: It's official, guys, Colleges can now officially pay players directly.
Speaker 2: The House settlement went through, so there is a quote
Speaker 2: unquote salary cap. Teams can play pay their players are
Speaker 2: not just college football overall. They can pay their athletes
Speaker 2: twenty point five million dollars per year. Most of that
Speaker 2: money is going to go to football. They say, you
Speaker 2: know they're going to be able to police this and
Speaker 2: police the boosters out of college football.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm skeptical. Yeah, I'm skeptical.
Speaker 2: Skeptical.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't understand why anyone would be skeptical of that.
Speaker 2: By the way, did you guys watch any of the
Speaker 2: French Open over the weekend? Let you watch everything? Did
Speaker 2: you watch any I don't watch tennis. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 2: That was an incredible match. Carlos Alcaaz comes back from
Speaker 2: two sets down, save three match points and wins the
Speaker 2: French Open over Yannick Center.
Speaker 1: And it was incredible. Lench.
Speaker 2: I'm not I used to be a big tennis fan.
Speaker 2: I don't watch it much anymore, but I happened to
Speaker 2: be watching a little bit of that and that was incredible.
Speaker 3: So I said, years ago, dog, somebody taught me about
Speaker 3: twenty years ago. They said, hey, see that tennis. It's

Speaker 1: Oh. Did I did watch the golf that went to
Speaker 1: four playoff holes yesterday? Did you see that? Names?
Speaker 2: So you watched a meaningless golf tournament, but you didn't watch.
Speaker 1: The only reason I caught the golf is because I
