<v Speaker 2>back to the text line coming up here in just

9
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:40.719
<v Speaker 2>a couple of minutes. Some good texts coming in that

10
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:43.479
<v Speaker 2>I certainly I would like to get to. But one

11
00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:48.960
<v Speaker 2>thing that has definitely stood out in the last I

12
00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 2>don't know a week or so, when it comes to

13
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Indiana basketball fans on social media, I know that there

14
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:57.159
<v Speaker 2>are many that are just and that's really what sucks

15
00:00:57.159 --> 00:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>about Twitter. I'm sure you've noticed this as well, Austin.

16
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:04.640
<v Speaker 2>That really the new and uh, I guess, I don't

17
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:06.840
<v Speaker 2>know if it's the new wave of Twitter slash x,

18
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:12.000
<v Speaker 2>but man creating faceless accounts that really is just for parody,

19
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:14.920
<v Speaker 2>but also at times, I mean, I don't know, just

20
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:17.840
<v Speaker 2>like that, when I think of the new age Twitter

21
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:20.920
<v Speaker 2>accounts that are out there that are you know, basically

22
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:27.359
<v Speaker 2>just aggregating content. And I mean there's not even a

23
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 2>platform that they have as far as a website or

24
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.120
<v Speaker 2>even like a podcast, but it's just a Twitter account

25
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:37.680
<v Speaker 2>or even an Instagram account that's like CBB hoops, right,

26
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:39.879
<v Speaker 2>and you know, it's got the blue check, it's got

27
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:42.200
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of followers on a follow and it just

28
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:45.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, people assume that that's like a reliable source

29
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:49.400
<v Speaker 2>for news. So there are accounts like that that follow

30
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:54.799
<v Speaker 2>college football, college basketball, NFL, NBA, and some of them

31
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:58.719
<v Speaker 2>have built up followings that are more than a million people.

32
00:01:58.760 --> 00:02:01.120
<v Speaker 2>So like, you know, clearly they're doing something that's working

33
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.120
<v Speaker 2>for them, but it's really kind of watered down. What

34
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:07.840
<v Speaker 2>is social media? Like the majority of my replies from

35
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:12.120
<v Speaker 2>like Kentucky Fans Now and things is it's just a

36
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.479
<v Speaker 2>parody account that's trying to get some jokes off, which

37
00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:17.919
<v Speaker 2>is nothing wrong with that, but what I've noticed is

38
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>some people will put stuff out there that they they're

39
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:26.319
<v Speaker 2>just trying to get a laugh out of people. They

40
00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 2>don't take Twitter too serious, which is kind of their brand,

41
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 2>but also you know, like there's a hint of seriousness

42
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>to it. As well, and like they want to be

43
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:40.240
<v Speaker 2>funny jokesters whenever they're just trying to troll, but then

44
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:41.879
<v Speaker 2>they put stuff out there to kind of make it

45
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:45.240
<v Speaker 2>seem like they actually, you know, are sharing news, like

46
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:47.759
<v Speaker 2>they try to play both sides of it. So anyways,

47
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:51.039
<v Speaker 2>before I say this, I want Indiana fans listening to

48
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:56.000
<v Speaker 2>know this. I know that a lot of you see

49
00:02:56.039 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 2>it as a joke and don't believe it's real. And

50
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:04.039
<v Speaker 2>when I'm talking about is Brad Stevens coming to Indiana

51
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.240
<v Speaker 2>to be their next head coach. So again, I know

52
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.680
<v Speaker 2>that there's like some parody troll accounts out there that

53
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:11.719
<v Speaker 2>are photoshopping stuff and you know, just just trying to

54
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:13.759
<v Speaker 2>be knuckleheads online, which there's no harm in that. But

55
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:17.479
<v Speaker 2>I also have seen enough to where there are Indiana

56
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:21.360
<v Speaker 2>fans that truly believe that Brad Stevens would come back

57
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 2>and be their coach. And look, maybe they're right. I

58
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:26.120
<v Speaker 2>don't think so. I kind of feel like Brad Stevens

59
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:30.759
<v Speaker 2>was ever going to come back and you know, to

60
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:32.800
<v Speaker 2>college basketball, he would have done it the last time

61
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:38.800
<v Speaker 2>when they offered him ten million dollars a year. So Indiana,

62
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:40.919
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why because there's no real reason for

63
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 2>me to root for them. I don't root for them.

64
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a fan by any means, but I feel like,

65
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:47.319
<v Speaker 2>for more than a decade, I have found myself without

66
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:50.479
<v Speaker 2>even really trying to, I just find myself defending them

67
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.560
<v Speaker 2>and their program, because they really are a has been

68
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:55.960
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to accomplishments in what they've actually been

69
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:57.840
<v Speaker 2>able to do. They haven't been to a Final four

70
00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:00.479
<v Speaker 2>in over twenty years. Prior to that, they had a

71
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:05.479
<v Speaker 2>long drought before then, and they really haven't been good.

72
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:09.719
<v Speaker 2>They had two Sweet sixteen teams under Tom Crean, but

73
00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.080
<v Speaker 2>outside of that, in the last twenty years, twenty plus years,

74
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:18.160
<v Speaker 2>they've been bad and we all know that. So there's

75
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:20.199
<v Speaker 2>really no I mean, that's not an opinion, that's a fact.

76
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:24.279
<v Speaker 2>But what I think is a fact that is a

77
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:26.399
<v Speaker 2>good thing about Indiana basketball is if they just get

78
00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:30.720
<v Speaker 2>a coach that is good enough, competent, that has a

79
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.439
<v Speaker 2>winning formula, and he can utilize all the resources that

80
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:37.000
<v Speaker 2>come with a job like Indiana, they could be a

81
00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:40.959
<v Speaker 2>consistent top ten, top fifteen program. They've just been wrong

82
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:45.360
<v Speaker 2>with the coach every time since Bob Knight, other than

83
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:47.639
<v Speaker 2>the one time they hired a really good coach who

84
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.319
<v Speaker 2>did the silliest thing that should have never been against

85
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.240
<v Speaker 2>the rules, but it was, and that was Kelvin Sampson,

86
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.959
<v Speaker 2>who was texting recruits after midnight or something. When you

87
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:57.560
<v Speaker 2>go back and look at what exactly it was that

88
00:04:57.639 --> 00:04:59.920
<v Speaker 2>led to him getting fired and basically getting a show cause.

89
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:04.000
<v Speaker 2>Leading college basketball for a long time, it's not only

90
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:06.600
<v Speaker 2>is it crazy to think that was against the rules

91
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:09.639
<v Speaker 2>considering where we are now and what you're allowed to do,

92
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:11.920
<v Speaker 2>but even then it was stupid. Like, let's be like

93
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:13.519
<v Speaker 2>I always said, when it comes to the nc doubla,

94
00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna get We're gonna get older, decades are gonna

95
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:19.120
<v Speaker 2>go by, things are gonna be different, and we're going

96
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:22.920
<v Speaker 2>to look back on how stupid the NCAA was and

97
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:25.600
<v Speaker 2>and really just kind of be beside ourselves as far

98
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.639
<v Speaker 2>as like, can you believe their amateurism model? They tried

99
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.800
<v Speaker 2>to stick with that for generations and they actually were

100
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:34.040
<v Speaker 2>able to do it until you know, Congress got involved

101
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:38.120
<v Speaker 2>and said, hey, what you're doing is illegal, and sure enough,

102
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 2>that's why they now have to pay the players and

103
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 2>share revenue, and that's why there's a there's a settlement

104
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:46.759
<v Speaker 2>where former college players are going to get paid that

105
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:49.120
<v Speaker 2>haven't played in the last you know, five six years,

106
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:52.879
<v Speaker 2>because again what they were doing is illegal. So anyways

107
00:05:52.920 --> 00:05:56.480
<v Speaker 2>with Indiana, why are they even doing Like if you're

108
00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:59.600
<v Speaker 2>setting yourself up for Brad Stevens, like you're gonna be

109
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:04.279
<v Speaker 2>dissap pointed. I mean, maybe he does come back and coach,

110
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.199
<v Speaker 2>because what some people are saying is that last time

111
00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:10.839
<v Speaker 2>he couldn't leave Boston because his kids were too young

112
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:12.759
<v Speaker 2>and they really wanted to stay in Boston. But now

113
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:15.199
<v Speaker 2>his kids are older and this is the dream job

114
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:18.759
<v Speaker 2>for him. Again. I just I feel like if Brad

115
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:20.639
<v Speaker 2>Stevens was going to come back to college basketball, he

116
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:24.279
<v Speaker 2>would have already done it. He has a phenomenal job.

117
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:29.800
<v Speaker 2>He is the GM of the Boston Celtics, one of

118
00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:34.079
<v Speaker 2>the biggest brands in the history of basketball, and he

119
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:37.079
<v Speaker 2>doesn't even have to coach. He's just I mean, and

120
00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:39.759
<v Speaker 2>by the way, they just want a title, Like why

121
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:45.360
<v Speaker 2>would he leave that? I Mean, there's now a lot

122
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:48.319
<v Speaker 2>like the guys who were successful in college basketball in

123
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:50.360
<v Speaker 2>that brief time where Brad Stevens was a big, big

124
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:52.800
<v Speaker 2>name where he took Butler to two straight championship games,

125
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:54.879
<v Speaker 2>the game was different than a lot of the guys

126
00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:57.199
<v Speaker 2>that were successful, then they've left because they hate it,

127
00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:58.720
<v Speaker 2>or then they don't want to do it. You think

128
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:02.120
<v Speaker 2>Brad Stevens wants to come back and go through all

129
00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:03.439
<v Speaker 2>of me. It's one thing if you're an up and

130
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:06.120
<v Speaker 2>coming coach that's hungary, that really hasn't arrived, and you know, hey,

131
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:08.160
<v Speaker 2>no matter what they're doing as far as rule changes,

132
00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:10.199
<v Speaker 2>no matter what the temperature looks like, as far as

133
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.680
<v Speaker 2>college sports, I'm going to adapt because I want to win.

134
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:16.040
<v Speaker 2>But the guys who have had it their way and

135
00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:17.720
<v Speaker 2>been able to do it the way they wanted to

136
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:20.240
<v Speaker 2>for decades and stack up final fours and maybe even

137
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:22.160
<v Speaker 2>a national title or two, those are the guys that

138
00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:24.759
<v Speaker 2>are like, yeah, I'm not reinventing myself at sixty plus.

139
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:29.000
<v Speaker 2>The way I've been able to succeed is the only

140
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:30.240
<v Speaker 2>way I want to do it, the only way I

141
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:30.639
<v Speaker 2>know how.

142
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:30.879
<v Speaker 3>To do it.

143
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:33.720
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not gonna completely flip the script and be

144
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:37.160
<v Speaker 2>a different coach this late in the game because they're

145
00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:40.560
<v Speaker 2>not hungry as much because they've already accomplished some things

146
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:45.519
<v Speaker 2>and had some real success. And Brad Stevens. I mean,

147
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I just don't see why he would want to come

148
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:51.199
<v Speaker 2>back to college basketball. So just get it out of

149
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:53.879
<v Speaker 2>your mind and maybe you can get a Bruce Pearl,

150
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:56.040
<v Speaker 2>maybe you can get a Chris Beard. But if not,

151
00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:01.120
<v Speaker 2>Indiana should just go find a winning coach that can

152
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:04.720
<v Speaker 2>relate to players, that players want to play for and

153
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:07.399
<v Speaker 2>knows what he's doing as a ball coach. I mean,

154
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:11.399
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if if Pat Kelsey's and Mark Popes

155
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:13.560
<v Speaker 2>grow on trees. I don't believe that they do, but

156
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:16.519
<v Speaker 2>that that was a consistent thing with those guys. They

157
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:19.360
<v Speaker 2>had won everywhere they'd been, They had proven they can win.

158
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:22.959
<v Speaker 2>And I think the whole second guessing of a guy

159
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:25.360
<v Speaker 2>because well he did it this level and this is

160
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:28.639
<v Speaker 2>not you know that Utah Valley in Winthrop, that's not

161
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:30.639
<v Speaker 2>the acc of the sec Well, you're right, but I

162
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:33.600
<v Speaker 2>just feel like if there is, if there is, if

163
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.840
<v Speaker 2>there ever, is going to be some big adjustment as

164
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:39.840
<v Speaker 2>far as being able to get players because you're not

165
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:41.960
<v Speaker 2>a made man, you're not a big name. There's recruits

166
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:44.559
<v Speaker 2>that are being recruited by you now, but before you

167
00:08:44.600 --> 00:08:46.399
<v Speaker 2>got the job, they never heard of you. Right, Like

168
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:49.039
<v Speaker 2>you can overcome all of that. If you have good

169
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:52.679
<v Speaker 2>resources and you are relatable, players want to play for you.

170
00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Think about how many guys on this team right now

171
00:08:55.559 --> 00:08:57.639
<v Speaker 2>that are playing for Pat Kelsey didn't know who he

172
00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>was twelve months ago. I might have, but it wouldn't

173
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:03.519
<v Speaker 2>shock me if they didn't, because you know, he was

174
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:06.639
<v Speaker 2>at Winthrop in Charleston, a winner. But you know, Chucky

175
00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:08.840
<v Speaker 2>came from Wisconsin. I'm sure he wasn't super familiar with

176
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Charleston basketball. Maybe he was, I'm not sure, But I

177
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:15.440
<v Speaker 2>just if Indiana goes all in on the Brad Stevens

178
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:18.000
<v Speaker 2>thing and that becomes the noise coming from Bloomington that

179
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:19.480
<v Speaker 2>they think they got him this time, and then he

180
00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:21.720
<v Speaker 2>lets him down like you walked yourself into that, if

181
00:09:21.759 --> 00:09:24.440
<v Speaker 2>that's what ends up happening, all right, FABO two. If

182
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:26.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm seven one seventy nine hundred as the number, If

183
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:27.879
<v Speaker 2>you guys want to jump in and join us on

184
00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:30.080
<v Speaker 2>the phone lines, Let's go to Terry, who joins us

185
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:31.240
<v Speaker 2>here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

186
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.600
<v Speaker 4>What's up Terry and a couple of things. Why you

187
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:41.240
<v Speaker 4>just mis mentioned the Indiana job. Do you think that

188
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:45.960
<v Speaker 4>Louisville shouldn't lock down Pat Kelsey because they may come

189
00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:50.240
<v Speaker 4>after him, and or North Carolina could be a place

190
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:52.840
<v Speaker 4>that they would go after Pat Kelsey. Do you think

191
00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:55.960
<v Speaker 4>either one of those jobs is a step up from

192
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:58.480
<v Speaker 4>Louisville or it's more like a lateral move or an

193
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:01.159
<v Speaker 4>ius case pssibly a step down.

194
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.360
<v Speaker 2>I would say I'd say this, Terry, I think that

195
00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:06.639
<v Speaker 2>that Carolina is a better job because to me, it's

196
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:09.159
<v Speaker 2>in that I think the three best jobs in college

197
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.720
<v Speaker 2>basketball are Kentucky, Carolina, and Kansas. I think you can

198
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:15.879
<v Speaker 2>pick whichever one you want of those three to claim

199
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:18.200
<v Speaker 2>it's the best. I think Kentucky having so many coaches

200
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:20.639
<v Speaker 2>that have won national championships and being here around it,

201
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:23.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it's the best job. So yeah, Carolina would

202
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:25.799
<v Speaker 2>be one of very few programs that Louisville could lose

203
00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:28.399
<v Speaker 2>a coach to. However, Louisvill's also an elite jobs, so

204
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:30.559
<v Speaker 2>they need to pay the more money. I mean, they're

205
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:32.399
<v Speaker 2>not in a great spot financially right now. That was

206
00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:34.840
<v Speaker 2>reported by the CJ earlier this week. They're really paying

207
00:10:34.919 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 2>for the buyouts and whatnot that they you know, they

208
00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:41.120
<v Speaker 2>had to do to get him here. So Indiana, I

209
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:42.919
<v Speaker 2>don't worry I don't think Anyiana would come after him,

210
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:44.639
<v Speaker 2>and if they did, I would be shocked if he

211
00:10:44.639 --> 00:10:46.080
<v Speaker 2>didn't say, look, I don't want to go, so let's

212
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:48.159
<v Speaker 2>get a new contract done. But North Carolina, I think

213
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:50.720
<v Speaker 2>they keep Hubert Davis for one more year and then

214
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:53.720
<v Speaker 2>after next year, if he stinks, they'll probably fire him

215
00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:55.840
<v Speaker 2>and go after somebody else. And yeah, I think Pat

216
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Kelsey would be an attractive name, especially if he keeps

217
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.399
<v Speaker 2>winning at Louisville and they haven't given him a new

218
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.159
<v Speaker 2>deal by that point. I don't know what Josh Hurt's

219
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.039
<v Speaker 2>going to do, but I do know that he has

220
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:07.480
<v Speaker 2>to be aware that Pat Kelsey is on the cheap

221
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:09.799
<v Speaker 2>right now. And if he continues to win, and Louisville

222
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:11.840
<v Speaker 2>makes the tournament, maybe wins a game in the tournament,

223
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:15.039
<v Speaker 2>you'd be foolish not to lock him down because somebody

224
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:17.000
<v Speaker 2>else will come after him. And they won't think that, hey,

225
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:19.440
<v Speaker 2>Louisville's allows you program, we're gonna go take their coach.

226
00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:21.759
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna say, wow, Louisville's not paying that guy enough.

227
00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:25.600
<v Speaker 2>We can triple his salary.

228
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:27.120
<v Speaker 5>Right well, and let me I want to get to

229
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:28.879
<v Speaker 5>the ror reason I call him then I'll hang up

230
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:33.080
<v Speaker 5>and listen to your response. I'm taking a beating on

231
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:38.080
<v Speaker 5>the Kentucky message board because these injuries and lack of

232
00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:42.399
<v Speaker 5>transparency drive me crazy. So Matt today on the show

233
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:49.679
<v Speaker 5>just pretty matter factly said, Robinson and Butler you probably

234
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:52.960
<v Speaker 5>won't see them again the rest of the regular season.

235
00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:57.000
<v Speaker 6>Coach Pope says nothing like that. Yeah, I mean, why

236
00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.399
<v Speaker 6>would he not come out and just say, hey, we're

237
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:02.840
<v Speaker 6>gonna shut these two guys down for a couple of weeks.

238
00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:08.240
<v Speaker 6>See what happens. In My other point to that, hang

239
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:11.080
<v Speaker 6>up with Let's say he does that. They have seven games.

240
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:14.399
<v Speaker 6>Lest let's say they go two and five in their

241
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:17.279
<v Speaker 6>last seven games? What do you think that does to

242
00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:18.840
<v Speaker 6>their seating? If anything?

243
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:19.639
<v Speaker 4>And they'll hang up and.

244
00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:20.360
<v Speaker 5>Listen to Terry.

245
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:21.759
<v Speaker 2>What was the record you said at the end, So

246
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:24.919
<v Speaker 2>if they finished seven and what they have?

247
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:28.240
<v Speaker 6>They got seven regular season games. But let's say he

248
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:30.799
<v Speaker 6>shuts them down and they go two and five.

249
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:34.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I got you right. I appreciate the call, man. Yeah,

250
00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:37.919
<v Speaker 2>look the injury situation. As far as transparency, I would say,

251
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:41.840
<v Speaker 2>if Pope knows like he if it's true that Pope

252
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:45.879
<v Speaker 2>knows for sure that he is not gonna have Robinson

253
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:51.480
<v Speaker 2>or Butler the rest of the regular season, and it

254
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:54.600
<v Speaker 2>sounds like, I mean, nobody's it's not beneficial. But I

255
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:56.679
<v Speaker 2>keep hearing that kirk Ree said there's no chance he

256
00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:58.519
<v Speaker 2>plays the rest of the way. So as to why

257
00:12:58.519 --> 00:12:59.960
<v Speaker 2>they haven't just come out and said that, I don't know.

258
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:03.759
<v Speaker 2>So it's got to be gamesmanship, making your opponent second

259
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:06.639
<v Speaker 2>guess as far as which personnel you're going to have available.

260
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:09.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I can't give you an answer as to

261
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:12.360
<v Speaker 2>why Pope doesn't do that, but my guess would be

262
00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:17.360
<v Speaker 2>either gamesmanship or maybe he realizes that he's not at

263
00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:21.360
<v Speaker 2>all aware of if it's possible these guys, Like maybe

264
00:13:21.399 --> 00:13:24.240
<v Speaker 2>he said that and then with two games left, the

265
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:27.159
<v Speaker 2>training staff for UK realizes, hey, he's good to go,

266
00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 2>he can play. So, I mean, Pat Kelsey has unfortunately

267
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:34.919
<v Speaker 2>had many opportunities to talk about injured players thus far

268
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:38.440
<v Speaker 2>because he's had a lot of injuries. And I think

269
00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:41.200
<v Speaker 2>we've learned a lot about Pat throughout this first season,

270
00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:42.759
<v Speaker 2>and one of the things I've learned is that he

271
00:13:42.799 --> 00:13:46.320
<v Speaker 2>is not going to talk a whole lot about injuries specifically,

272
00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:49.759
<v Speaker 2>and when pushed further to get some kind of a

273
00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:53.399
<v Speaker 2>better update than what he's given in these press conferences,

274
00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:55.879
<v Speaker 2>in these interviews, he's going to tell you that he's

275
00:13:55.919 --> 00:13:57.879
<v Speaker 2>not on the training staff, he's not on the medical staff,

276
00:13:57.879 --> 00:13:59.639
<v Speaker 2>and he doesn't have a clue. He just trusts those

277
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:02.679
<v Speaker 2>folks and they do such a great job. So you know,

278
00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:06.159
<v Speaker 2>I I don't know. Maybe I'm gullible and I'm just

279
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:08.600
<v Speaker 2>believing these coaches as far as what they're saying, but

280
00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:11.440
<v Speaker 2>I do think that, uh, I mean, I do think

281
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:14.200
<v Speaker 2>that sometimes they're just telling you the truth that they

282
00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:16.879
<v Speaker 2>don't really know. And I think with Kentucky, and I

283
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.960
<v Speaker 2>could be wrong, Terry, I don't know. Maybe I haven't

284
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:20.840
<v Speaker 2>been as plugged in as others, but I do feel

285
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:22.480
<v Speaker 2>like there's been some injuries that you felt like were

286
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.600
<v Speaker 2>really severe with Kentucky and then it didn't end up

287
00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:28.399
<v Speaker 2>being the case. Like it sounded like Lamont Butler was

288
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:29.919
<v Speaker 2>going to be out for a long long time, and

289
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:34.120
<v Speaker 2>then he was cleared to play against against UH South

290
00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Carolina last weekend, and now he's re injured himself, which

291
00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:40.120
<v Speaker 2>is not ideal. Jackson Robinson's same thing he played and

292
00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:41.600
<v Speaker 2>then I don't know if he re injured it, but

293
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:44.200
<v Speaker 2>reaggravated or whatever it may be, to where he didn't

294
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:47.840
<v Speaker 2>he didn't get to go against against Tennessee because of

295
00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:50.759
<v Speaker 2>what happened in the South Carolina game. So Inrew Carr,

296
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:52.159
<v Speaker 2>I feel like at times it sounded like he was

297
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:54.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna be out for a long time, then he randomly

298
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:57.320
<v Speaker 2>came back. So as far as the coach is not

299
00:14:57.480 --> 00:14:59.600
<v Speaker 2>telling us what's happening, sometimes it may be because they

300
00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:02.679
<v Speaker 2>just don't know for sure what's going on with the injury.

301
00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:04.840
<v Speaker 2>And I don't mean like they're not paying attention, but

302
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:08.080
<v Speaker 2>it's not such a night and day, black and white

303
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 2>kind of thing to wear. I'm sure the training staff

304
00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:12.240
<v Speaker 2>truly says, Look, we are taking it day by day.

305
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:14.120
<v Speaker 2>We're going to continue to evaluate and see what makes

306
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 2>the most sense. But I would say you're always going

307
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:20.639
<v Speaker 2>to have even if there's a requirement like there is

308
00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:23.440
<v Speaker 2>in the SEC, even if there's even more so that

309
00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:25.600
<v Speaker 2>they ask as far as what you have to put

310
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.159
<v Speaker 2>out there with transparency, I think coach is just their nature.

311
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:29.759
<v Speaker 2>They're still going to try to keep things as close

312
00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:30.639
<v Speaker 2>to the best as they can.

313
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:31.639
<v Speaker 7>Now.

314
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.320
<v Speaker 2>If Kentucky ends up finishing two and five and the

315
00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:37.720
<v Speaker 2>rest of these games, I mean, i'd say the toughest

316
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:39.720
<v Speaker 2>games are I mean, you've got Auburn at home. It's

317
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:41.679
<v Speaker 2>at home, but Auburn is loaded, you got to go

318
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:44.559
<v Speaker 2>to Tuscaloos, so those are really tough. And then outside

319
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:48.320
<v Speaker 2>of that, you play Missouri on the road, which you

320
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:52.159
<v Speaker 2>can win that game. But yeah, if you're shorthanded and

321
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:54.440
<v Speaker 2>you don't have Butler or Robinson at all in these

322
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.159
<v Speaker 2>games and you finish two and five, I would say

323
00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:04.639
<v Speaker 2>as long as five of those losses are not or

324
00:16:04.679 --> 00:16:07.200
<v Speaker 2>as long as any of those losses are not to

325
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:11.960
<v Speaker 2>a Vandy or really, I guess not Vandy but LSU.

326
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:13.960
<v Speaker 2>If you lost a Vandy at home, that wouldn't be ideal.

327
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:16.399
<v Speaker 2>And obviously LSU is the is the worst team in

328
00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.159
<v Speaker 2>the conference outside of South Carolina. So but here's the thing.

329
00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:24.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if they ended up losing to Missouri, Auburn,

330
00:16:24.879 --> 00:16:28.840
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma on the road, Alabama at home, and Texas on

331
00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:32.039
<v Speaker 2>the road, those are wins. Those are losses that you know,

332
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.320
<v Speaker 2>your lost column keeps getting losses added to it, but

333
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.879
<v Speaker 2>it's not really changing your resume substantially. Because Kentucky's resume

334
00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:41.039
<v Speaker 2>is just kind of weird. They have so many wins

335
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:44.679
<v Speaker 2>of high value that it would take them losing to

336
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:48.360
<v Speaker 2>some of the bad teams in the SEC to drop

337
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:50.919
<v Speaker 2>them substantially. And you know what, there aren't many bad

338
00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:54.039
<v Speaker 2>teams in the SEC. So and look, here's what's crazy.

339
00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:58.639
<v Speaker 2>They could lose to Texas and Vandy and then go

340
00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:01.559
<v Speaker 2>beat Alabama the place because that's kind of the weird

341
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:04.720
<v Speaker 2>season they're having when it comes to the resume. All right,

342
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:06.119
<v Speaker 2>quick break, we'll come back on the other side of

343
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:09.440
<v Speaker 2>little rom com movie draft. It won't take too long.

344
00:17:09.480 --> 00:17:11.799
<v Speaker 2>But it's Valentine's Day. We're gonna have some fun. We'll

<v Speaker 2>talk to doctor Eric McElroy coming up at four forty five,

346

<v Speaker 2>it on me and Vita and little mo Well don't

352
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:32.680
<v Speaker 2>know who Little Mo is or Vita, but they're a

353
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:34.319
<v Speaker 2>part of it. And this is a great song.

354
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I just imagine young Nick Young Mercedes like singing this

355
00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:41.440
<v Speaker 3>song like you taking the jaw roll part. Yeah, I

356
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:45.480
<v Speaker 3>mean she comes in with the who I guess is yeah,

357
00:17:46.039 --> 00:17:46.920
<v Speaker 3>she just starts spinning.

358
00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:49.359
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is the best bar and it's the

359
00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:52.680
<v Speaker 2>most romantic thing I've maybe ever said to my wife.

360
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:54.880
<v Speaker 2>But I don't want to go crazy. But every thug

361

<v Speaker 2>make life better for not just you, but your partner

371
00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:28.119
<v Speaker 2>as well. Loismen's Clinic dot com is the website. Fibo

372
00:18:28.119 --> 00:18:30.960
<v Speaker 2>two four four four four thousand is the number if

373
00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:32.359
<v Speaker 2>you'd like to give them a call. They've got a

374
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:36.440
<v Speaker 2>variety of services they provide to help men become healthier,

375
00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:39.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's one of those things that you may not

376
00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:41.359
<v Speaker 2>even realize that you could feel a lot better than

377
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:44.400
<v Speaker 2>you do, because men we have this this stigma where

378
00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:46.359
<v Speaker 2>we just you know, we're tough where we don't need

379
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:47.799
<v Speaker 2>to go to the doctor, we don't have any issues.

380
00:18:47.799 --> 00:18:50.000
<v Speaker 2>We're manly men, and I know we all want to

381
00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:52.759
<v Speaker 2>be that, but it's just not reality, because you can

382
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 2>be the manliest of men, but at some point you

383
00:18:55.960 --> 00:18:59.119
<v Speaker 2>may struggle with a rectotis function. You may have testosterone

384
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:03.960
<v Speaker 2>levels that are really low that it's not good, it's

385
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:07.359
<v Speaker 2>not ideal, and you may not even realize that you've

386
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:10.119
<v Speaker 2>had this situation for years. Maybe it's out of sight,

387
00:19:10.119 --> 00:19:11.680
<v Speaker 2>out of mind, maybe you're in denial about it. But

388
00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:13.400
<v Speaker 2>if you know, you know, especially when it comes to ed.

389
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:16.160
<v Speaker 2>But all it takes is a phone call and a

390
00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:19.039
<v Speaker 2>visit to go see doctor Wood. They'll, uh, Look, they

391
00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:20.920
<v Speaker 2>know this is not something that a lot of people

392
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:24.319
<v Speaker 2>want to be doing, right. I mean, it's awkward, it's uncomfortable,

393
00:19:24.319 --> 00:19:25.440
<v Speaker 2>But you don't have to worry about that with them

394
00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:28.960
<v Speaker 2>because they do this. They're passionate about it, and they're

395
00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:30.759
<v Speaker 2>expecting people who come and see them for the first

396
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:32.400
<v Speaker 2>time to maybe be a little uncomfortable and maybe a

397
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:34.400
<v Speaker 2>little nervous and they're gonna put you at ease, and

398
00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:35.759
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna let you know, Hey, we're going to get

399
00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:37.519
<v Speaker 2>this figured out. Life's going to be much better for you.

400
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:41.000
<v Speaker 2>So Louisman's Clinic dot com FABO two four four four

401
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:44.319
<v Speaker 2>four thousand. All right, So we've got an interview coming

402
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:45.799
<v Speaker 2>up here in about fifteen minutes with the one and

403
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:48.680
<v Speaker 2>only doctor Eric McElroy of pro Rea Physical Therapy. But

404
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:51.000
<v Speaker 2>what I wanted to do today, thanks to the great

405
00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:53.640
<v Speaker 2>idea from the one and only Austin Montgomery, stop back

406
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:55.839
<v Speaker 2>to the drafts. We used to do drafts pretty regularly,

407
00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:58.680
<v Speaker 2>especially whenever we weren't in the midst of a season

408
00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:00.839
<v Speaker 2>football basketball, just because you know, you can mix it up,

409
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:03.119
<v Speaker 2>get a little creative, have some fun when you're not

410
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:05.759
<v Speaker 2>having to talk about March madness or that kind of stuff.

411
00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:09.799
<v Speaker 2>So rom com movies, We've got Valentine's Day today, right,

412
00:20:09.880 --> 00:20:15.119
<v Speaker 2>And I think rom com for the most part, is

413
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:20.480
<v Speaker 2>a really it's a very broad genre. Because but now

414
00:20:20.519 --> 00:20:24.240
<v Speaker 2>as I'm looking through here at IMDb and referencing other

415
00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:28.599
<v Speaker 2>websites that like rank the rom com movies, I mean,

416
00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:31.440
<v Speaker 2>it's quite literally a pretty easy thing to determine. Is

417
00:20:31.480 --> 00:20:33.880
<v Speaker 2>there a romantic element involved to where part of the

418
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:37.920
<v Speaker 2>storyline is that there's romance meaning a couple or a

419
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:40.680
<v Speaker 2>potential couple, and of course is it a comedy. So

420
00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:45.119
<v Speaker 2>I would say, of all the movies out there, rom

421
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:47.599
<v Speaker 2>com has got to be one of the more common

422
00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:49.759
<v Speaker 2>genres that you see, right sure. And there could be

423
00:20:49.799 --> 00:20:52.079
<v Speaker 2>some that are a little bit less on the romantic side,

424
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:53.839
<v Speaker 2>a little more on the comedy, maybe even a little

425
00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:55.680
<v Speaker 2>bit on the raunchy side of it. But then again,

426
00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:57.599
<v Speaker 2>as long as it has a little bit of both,

427
00:20:58.160 --> 00:21:01.160
<v Speaker 2>it can qualify as rom com. So I'm gonna pick three,

428
00:21:01.160 --> 00:21:03.200
<v Speaker 2>Austin's gonna pick three. I'll give you the floor first.

429
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:04.480
<v Speaker 2>What are you going with your first pick?

430
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Probably my first? My first pick one I love so much,

431
00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 3>crazy stupid love. Okay, that one is a great one.

432
00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:16.839
<v Speaker 3>It's got Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Juliam Moore, my Girl,

433
00:21:16.920 --> 00:21:21.759
<v Speaker 3>Emma Stone and really good cast, phenomenal cast. And it's

434
00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:24.359
<v Speaker 3>the good twist, of course, halfway through when you find

435
00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:28.559
<v Speaker 3>out that basically Steve Carell's character, Ryan Gosling's character, he's

436
00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:30.880
<v Speaker 3>he's dating her daughter. The love that he's talking about

437
00:21:30.920 --> 00:21:33.240
<v Speaker 3>getting them through and he knows that he's just like

438
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:36.279
<v Speaker 3>your average trashy kind of guy, you know, and he's

439
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:39.720
<v Speaker 3>trying to help him through through this love that he's

440
00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:41.559
<v Speaker 3>talking about this girl he fell in love with and

441
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:44.279
<v Speaker 3>just now finding out that it's his daughter, Emma Stone,

442
00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:48.559
<v Speaker 3>Steve Carell's daughter, Emma Stone in it. And meanwhile, Ryan

443
00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:51.480
<v Speaker 3>Gosling's trying to make Steve Carell this like bad boy, right,

444
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:54.039
<v Speaker 3>trying to get him to get girls, and it's it's

445
00:21:54.079 --> 00:21:56.599
<v Speaker 3>a fun little twist. Great movie. One of my favorite

446
00:21:56.640 --> 00:21:57.359
<v Speaker 3>om coms ever.

447
00:21:57.519 --> 00:21:59.839
<v Speaker 2>I really really liked it. I only watched it once.

448
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:01.119
<v Speaker 2>I think my wife and I went to see it

449
00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:03.000
<v Speaker 2>in theaters, so I haven't seen it since it came out,

450
00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:05.240
<v Speaker 2>which was a good one many years ago. But yeah,

451
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:06.920
<v Speaker 2>as I'm looking at the cast here and kind of

452
00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:09.880
<v Speaker 2>remembering it, it is that cast. Sometimes you have a

453
00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:12.119
<v Speaker 2>lot of big names together and it can just be

454
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:15.440
<v Speaker 2>too much not to where it's bad. But like, you know,

455
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:17.640
<v Speaker 2>did you really get there was there a whole lot

456
00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:19.680
<v Speaker 2>of value in having this specific star in it because

457
00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:21.160
<v Speaker 2>they didn't really seem to have a relevant role. That

458
00:22:21.240 --> 00:22:23.160
<v Speaker 2>was a movie where I feel like all the big

459
00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:25.519
<v Speaker 2>names had a very important role and it kind of

460
00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:27.720
<v Speaker 2>all came together and worked really well. I'm going to

461
00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:32.119
<v Speaker 2>go back in the nineties, nineteen ninety eight. I'm going

462
00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:36.519
<v Speaker 2>the wedding singer Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. Oh yes,

463
00:22:36.759 --> 00:22:40.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean, honestly, I'm gonna not pick all Adam Sandler movies,

464
00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:43.039
<v Speaker 2>but I easily could have because he has a lot

465
00:22:43.079 --> 00:22:45.359
<v Speaker 2>of other Yet that's what I was gonna say. I'm

466
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:48.319
<v Speaker 2>not even a big fan of Drew Berrymore at all,

467
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:52.240
<v Speaker 2>but when she's with Adam Sandler in a movie one,

468
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:54.680
<v Speaker 2>it's always a good movie, and I feel like they

469
00:22:54.759 --> 00:22:57.400
<v Speaker 2>need to be married. I mean, don't you feel like

470
00:22:57.400 --> 00:22:59.160
<v Speaker 2>they have? I mean, again, I'm sure it's just them

471
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:02.160
<v Speaker 2>being phenomenal at her job being actresses, being an actress

472
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:04.559
<v Speaker 2>and an actor, but I mean, it just seems like

473
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:07.759
<v Speaker 2>they're they're meant to be together. Yeah, and she's really

474
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:09.960
<v Speaker 2>likable when she's in a role that includes him, And

475
00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:12.079
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't say that she's like unlikable, but I've just

476
00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:13.799
<v Speaker 2>never been a really big fan of her. But man,

477
00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:16.960
<v Speaker 2>wedding singer is phenomenal. Every part of it. I mean,

478
00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:18.960
<v Speaker 2>the fact that her name was going to be Julia Gulia,

479
00:23:19.799 --> 00:23:22.079
<v Speaker 2>the fact that he's, you know, truly a wedding singer,

480
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:23.920
<v Speaker 2>and then he goes through the breakup. I mean it's

481
00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:27.240
<v Speaker 2>it's Adam Sandler at his finest. And uh, there's also

482
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:30.400
<v Speaker 2>kind of I mean, I'm gonna look up the the

483
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.720
<v Speaker 2>cast here because there's some there's some known names that

484
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:37.000
<v Speaker 2>like had let me see here. And by the way,

485
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:41.119
<v Speaker 2>I didn't realize that Christine Taylor, that's that actually ended

486
00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:44.200
<v Speaker 2>up being uh, that's this isn't that sailor's.

487
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:45.319
<v Speaker 3>Wife, Christine Taylor?

488
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:47.480
<v Speaker 2>I think so she married to Ben Stiller. Who's she

489
00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:51.880
<v Speaker 2>married to? Because it's gonna drive me crazy. She's in

490
00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:53.720
<v Speaker 2>a lot of stuff. She's in Dodgeball. I mean, she's

491
00:23:53.720 --> 00:23:55.400
<v Speaker 2>in a lot of things. Her name is not one

492
00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:57.200
<v Speaker 2>that really like I could tell you who she is

493
00:23:57.240 --> 00:23:58.720
<v Speaker 2>and what she's in, but I wouldn't have known her

494
00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:00.680
<v Speaker 2>name was Christine Taylor off the top of my head.

495
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:02.599
<v Speaker 2>Yet she's married to Ben Stale. I know she was

496
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:05.839
<v Speaker 2>married to some actor. But anyways, she's in it and

497
00:24:05.880 --> 00:24:09.200
<v Speaker 2>she's hilarious. The other I mean, who else do we

498
00:24:09.240 --> 00:24:12.559
<v Speaker 2>have here? I mean, I can't think of his name

499
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:15.039
<v Speaker 2>is gonna drive me crazy. I think John Lovetz is

500
00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:16.880
<v Speaker 2>in it. Which is like randomly funny. You know what

501
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:21.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying, Like he's he's he's a competing wedding singer,

502
00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:24.200
<v Speaker 2>and he's like he's losing his mind and I'm greeping

503
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:27.400
<v Speaker 2>able benefits. I mean, Kevin Neelan is in it as well.

504
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Billy Idol plays a really good role on the plane.

505
00:24:31.160 --> 00:24:33.680
<v Speaker 3>The Grandma when she's singing the sugar Hill Gang.

506
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:37.839
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, yes, yes, and she gives meatballs in hand.

507
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Remember that. I mean that's nostalgic for me, but also

508
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:43.359
<v Speaker 2>I just feel like it's it's perfect. So that that's

509
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:44.640
<v Speaker 2>my first one. What's your second one?

510
00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:47.359
<v Speaker 3>Adam Sandler always in like every movie, always has this

511
00:24:47.519 --> 00:24:51.359
<v Speaker 3>completely hot wife or other. It's completely out of his league.

512
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.480
<v Speaker 3>Drew Barry More fits theme. That's what I was gonna say.

513
00:24:53.519 --> 00:24:56.200
<v Speaker 2>No, you're absolutely right, because something like any movie he

514
00:24:56.519 --> 00:24:58.559
<v Speaker 2>you know that is a happy Madison production, that is

515
00:24:58.559 --> 00:25:01.480
<v Speaker 2>the rom com element are better than others, but like

516
00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:04.559
<v Speaker 2>more often than not, like he's with Jennifer Aniston or

517
00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:08.480
<v Speaker 2>the girl, I mean even the woman that was in

518
00:25:09.559 --> 00:25:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Spanglish and the wife in Spanglish, the wife and click

519
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:14.880
<v Speaker 2>like way out of his league. But Drew Barrymore. She's

520
00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:17.000
<v Speaker 2>certainly attractive, but it's more believable, right.

521
00:25:17.039 --> 00:25:20.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, which grown ups? He's with sama Hia, Yes, come on,

522
00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:23.440
<v Speaker 3>get out of here, buddy. Second one I have to

523
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:25.000
<v Speaker 3>go with. I hope I don't snipe you, but I

524
00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:27.839
<v Speaker 3>actually hope I do. Forty year old virgin. That's always

525
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:29.759
<v Speaker 3>been a favorite of mine. You would consider that a roum.

526
00:25:29.599 --> 00:25:32.400
<v Speaker 2>Comrade, absolutely, because to me, that was the one I

527
00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:36.039
<v Speaker 2>thought about when I said, Okay, that's rom com It's

528
00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:38.359
<v Speaker 2>more on the raunchy comedy side, but textually there's still

529
00:25:38.359 --> 00:25:39.720
<v Speaker 2>an element of romance as well.

530
00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:43.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, great cas Steve Corell again, Catherine Keener, Paul Rudd

531
00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:46.960
<v Speaker 3>is in it, and a little Seth Rogan too. Everybody

532
00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:50.279
<v Speaker 3>is dynamic and that is hilarious. And I was always

533
00:25:50.279 --> 00:25:51.920
<v Speaker 3>a young, hopeless kid. I thought that I would be

534
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:52.400
<v Speaker 3>a forty.

535
00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Year old and Elizabeth Banks before she was really big,

536
00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:58.319
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Hart before anybody knew who he was. Yes, oh gosh,

537
00:25:58.359 --> 00:26:01.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, mindy is it? Mandy Kaling who's in the office.

538
00:26:02.160 --> 00:26:05.000
<v Speaker 2>She's in it as before, Like there were many people

539
00:26:05.079 --> 00:26:08.640
<v Speaker 2>who like Jane Len even Kat Dinnings, like there were

540
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>people who were in it at the time that you

541
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:13.880
<v Speaker 2>knew of or maybe you didn't, and they've kind of

542
00:26:13.920 --> 00:26:17.799
<v Speaker 2>all ended up becoming bigger names since then. One person, though,

543
00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:21.079
<v Speaker 2>who did not really, in my opinion, ever kind of

544
00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:23.880
<v Speaker 2>capitalize off of the momentum he had from this role

545
00:26:24.400 --> 00:26:26.680
<v Speaker 2>was Romani Malcolm, which you may not even know the name,

546
00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:29.039
<v Speaker 2>but that's the guy who plays Jay. Who's the guy

547
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:33.160
<v Speaker 2>who you know gets caught in best Buy and and

548
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:35.960
<v Speaker 2>his girlfriend comes in and all you know, oh, yes,

549
00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:37.400
<v Speaker 2>like you know what I'm talking you know which guy

550
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:38.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking about.

551
00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:40.759
<v Speaker 3>There's a hilarious back and forth between.

552
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:42.519
<v Speaker 2>And he never did he ever do and he was

553
00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:44.039
<v Speaker 2>in other stuff, But I thought he was going to

554
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:46.079
<v Speaker 2>become like a big name in comedy with all those

555
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:47.759
<v Speaker 2>kind of movies with the big stars at the time.

556
00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:51.400
<v Speaker 2>And I remember him briefly being in might have been

557
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:53.960
<v Speaker 2>what's the what's the figure skating movie? With Will Ferrell

558
00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:58.319
<v Speaker 2>and Shohn Header, Oh, Blades of Glory. He was in that,

559
00:26:58.480 --> 00:26:59.680
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure he was in other stuff that I

560
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:01.799
<v Speaker 2>just don't know about. But I really thought he was

561
00:27:01.880 --> 00:27:03.720
<v Speaker 2>going to be a big name, and maybe he is

562
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:05.960
<v Speaker 2>in certain aspects of Hollywood.

563
00:27:05.960 --> 00:27:09.559
<v Speaker 3>But Judd Apatow directed movies are also great. He does

564
00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:11.880
<v Speaker 3>super Bad and he also does Knocked Up, which is

565
00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:14.279
<v Speaker 3>also on the big board. But those those movies are

566
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:14.880
<v Speaker 3>a timeless.

567
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:17.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is one that is more of kind of

568
00:27:17.720 --> 00:27:20.640
<v Speaker 2>like a teeny bopper one, but it still counts as

569
00:27:20.759 --> 00:27:24.440
<v Speaker 2>as rom com I'm Gonna Go, She's All that? Oh Yes,

570
00:27:24.640 --> 00:27:27.680
<v Speaker 2>with Freddy Prince Jr. And Rachel Lee Cook. It also

571
00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:30.559
<v Speaker 2>had you remember Usher was in it, of course forgot

572
00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:33.079
<v Speaker 2>about that, and then Matthew Lillard was in it when

573
00:27:33.119 --> 00:27:35.519
<v Speaker 2>he was still popular. Paul Walker was in it as well,

574
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:38.200
<v Speaker 2>and it was it was cute, it was well done.

575
00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:40.240
<v Speaker 2>But what I did find funny is whenever they did

576
00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:42.000
<v Speaker 2>not another teen movie and made fun of all these

577
00:27:42.039 --> 00:27:44.559
<v Speaker 2>kind of movies, they really really pointed out the obvious here.

578
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Rachel Lee Cook was always a snack, always hot course,

579
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:50.799
<v Speaker 2>but Janeie Briggs, they just put her in glasses and

580
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:52.720
<v Speaker 2>put her hair up in a ponytail and had her

581
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:56.519
<v Speaker 2>wearing like unstyle. You know, she had no style when

582
00:27:56.519 --> 00:27:58.359
<v Speaker 2>it comes to her wardrobe. And then to make her

583
00:27:58.400 --> 00:28:01.480
<v Speaker 2>like this smoke show, they just changed her hair and

584
00:28:01.599 --> 00:28:03.839
<v Speaker 2>took the glasses off and put her in something nice

585
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:05.960
<v Speaker 2>and like you know, like it was to me. It

586
00:28:06.000 --> 00:28:08.000
<v Speaker 2>wasn't like the ugly duckling at all. She was actually

587
00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:10.799
<v Speaker 2>still always really hot. Your what's your last one?

588
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:12.839
<v Speaker 3>This one's a little bit tough. I'm in between two.

589
00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:16.599
<v Speaker 3>I guess I'll have one as unrestricted for undrafted free agent.

590
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:18.480
<v Speaker 3>But I guess one of one of my favorite films

591
00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:20.119
<v Speaker 3>ever happens to be a rom com. I don't know

592
00:28:20.160 --> 00:28:23.079
<v Speaker 3>if you've seen it, but it's called Can't Hardly Wait? Hell, yeah, no,

593
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:24.640
<v Speaker 3>Can't Hardly Wait? Movie?

594
00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:25.200
<v Speaker 6>Is that?

595
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Is that Julius styles?

596
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:29.680
<v Speaker 3>No, that's uh Jennifer low.

597
00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Yes is hilarious. Yes, it's awesome. I'm getting that mixed

598
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:35.960
<v Speaker 2>up with us about you?

599
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:39.880
<v Speaker 3>Also a great movie. Yeah, I watch that movie with

600
00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:41.960
<v Speaker 3>my buddies growing up. There's something that we all went

601
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:43.480
<v Speaker 3>over the house with you. I was watching it with

602
00:28:43.519 --> 00:28:46.920
<v Speaker 3>the boys. We watched it. Some substances involved, but it

603
00:28:46.960 --> 00:28:50.480
<v Speaker 3>was also a good show or absolutely fantastic movie. I

604
00:28:50.519 --> 00:28:53.319
<v Speaker 3>loved it. And it's uh if if you know, you know,

605
00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:55.720
<v Speaker 3>And there's a lot of good fun inside jokes about that,

606
00:28:55.839 --> 00:28:59.640
<v Speaker 3>and uh, it's timeless. I've got I've gotten the fiance

607
00:28:59.720 --> 00:29:01.519
<v Speaker 3>to watch it. She loves it too. But I love

608
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:03.799
<v Speaker 3>it all my nineties kids. They know about Ken Hartley.

609
00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:06.039
<v Speaker 2>Waite, good good stuff. That's that's that's in my will,

610
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:09.519
<v Speaker 2>that that's a reminder that we are actually close enough

611
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:11.359
<v Speaker 2>in age to where like we kind of have the

612
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:13.599
<v Speaker 2>same Like John and I don't have the same era

613
00:29:13.720 --> 00:29:15.519
<v Speaker 2>of on certain things, you know what I mean, But

614
00:29:15.599 --> 00:29:16.960
<v Speaker 2>you and I do, and it makes me. It makes

615
00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:19.400
<v Speaker 2>people very happy. So I was gonna go with another

616
00:29:19.400 --> 00:29:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Sandling movie because I actually think Click is a very,

617
00:29:21.759 --> 00:29:24.960
<v Speaker 2>very phenomenal movie. Oh yes, a really good story makes

618
00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:27.039
<v Speaker 2>you appreciate things. But I'm not gonna go. I'm gonna

619
00:29:27.039 --> 00:29:28.440
<v Speaker 2>go with an underrated one that a lot of people

620
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:30.440
<v Speaker 2>may not even realize. This is from the Fairly Brothers,

621
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.240
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think this movie ever got the attention

622
00:29:33.279 --> 00:29:36.079
<v Speaker 2>it deserved because I thought it was freaking hilarious. It's

623
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:38.799
<v Speaker 2>The Heartbreak Kid with Ben Stiller, and I think I've

624
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:41.519
<v Speaker 2>ever seen that one. And Ben Stiller, in my opinion

625
00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:46.720
<v Speaker 2>is he's one of my favorite actors, but he's you know,

626
00:29:46.759 --> 00:29:49.160
<v Speaker 2>he's rarely in funny stuff anymore, you know what I mean,

627
00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:51.839
<v Speaker 2>Like he's behind the scenes guy now, and he's really

628
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:53.799
<v Speaker 2>popular when it comes to that kind of stuff, like

629
00:29:53.839 --> 00:29:56.599
<v Speaker 2>he's Severance is his show. I don't know people realize

630
00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:57.839
<v Speaker 2>that or not. He's not in it, but like he's

631
00:29:57.880 --> 00:30:00.160
<v Speaker 2>the writer I think, or maybe the director. Yeah, the

632
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:03.519
<v Speaker 2>less This movie was hilarious. It was in theaters and

633
00:30:03.839 --> 00:30:06.079
<v Speaker 2>if you can find it Austin on one of these

634
00:30:06.079 --> 00:30:08.079
<v Speaker 2>streaming services, you would love it. I mean it has

635
00:30:09.359 --> 00:30:13.039
<v Speaker 2>Michelle Monahan, who has always been kind of hot, and

636
00:30:13.400 --> 00:30:16.200
<v Speaker 2>she's in a lot of stuff. Jerry Stiller's in it,

637
00:30:16.240 --> 00:30:19.960
<v Speaker 2>which is Ben Stiller's dad, who is hilarious. Rob Rob

638
00:30:20.039 --> 00:30:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Cordery is in it, who again another name that like

639
00:30:22.920 --> 00:30:24.319
<v Speaker 2>if I said his name, a lot of people probably

640
00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:25.640
<v Speaker 2>don't know who I'm talking about, but if you saw

641
00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:27.519
<v Speaker 2>his face you would know. I mean, he's hot, tub

642
00:30:27.559 --> 00:30:31.039
<v Speaker 2>time machine, He's in a lot of stuff. He's really funny.

643
00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:33.599
<v Speaker 2>And then also I mean just Danny McBride's in it

644
00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:36.799
<v Speaker 2>before he's big. I mean people who are hilarious that

645
00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:39.160
<v Speaker 2>you know. And it doesn't have a huge pass true,

646
00:30:39.359 --> 00:30:41.440
<v Speaker 2>it's a really good movie from the Fairly Brothers. If

647
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:43.359
<v Speaker 2>you haven't seen it, find it. You don't have to

648
00:30:43.359 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 2>make it like an appointment viewing kind of thing. But

649
00:30:45.079 --> 00:30:46.440
<v Speaker 2>I think you really really like it.

650
00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:49.480
<v Speaker 3>Do you have any snubs? Possibly think missed the cut?

651
00:30:49.640 --> 00:30:51.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean I was gonna. I mean click to Me

652
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:56.759
<v Speaker 2>is a true snub. Outside of that, I mean I

653
00:30:56.880 --> 00:30:59.720
<v Speaker 2>liked Fever Pitch that had Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon

654
00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:01.079
<v Speaker 2>in it. I don't know why I liked it, but

655
00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:04.440
<v Speaker 2>I did. Hitch is good, Oh dude, Yeah, that was

656
00:31:04.440 --> 00:31:07.119
<v Speaker 2>on the big board. Knocked Up is good. And then

657
00:31:07.319 --> 00:31:11.160
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to the other nineties ones that stand out.

658
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:13.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean I mentioned Wedding Singer, which is certainly one

659
00:31:13.960 --> 00:31:14.839
<v Speaker 2>of the best out there.

660
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:17.119
<v Speaker 3>Well, there's a lot in the nineties. You've got mail.

661
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:18.200

687
00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:24.319
<v Speaker 8>Ready for getting ready for you know, we don't really

688
00:32:24.319 --> 00:32:26.440
<v Speaker 8>do a whole lot for Valentine's Day, So same here

689
00:32:26.920 --> 00:32:28.039
<v Speaker 8>another day.

690
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:28.440
<v Speaker 7>Yep.

691
00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:32.240
<v Speaker 2>That's really been the approach. My wife and I have

692
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:34.559
<v Speaker 2>had about it for quite some time, which makes me

693
00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:37.880
<v Speaker 2>happy because you know, for a while I was thinking, well,

694
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:39.440
<v Speaker 2>she just telling me she doesn't want to do anything,

695
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:41.000
<v Speaker 2>or is this some kind of a test. But I

696
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:43.160
<v Speaker 2>have learned over the years that she, she and I

697
00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:44.480
<v Speaker 2>are on the same level as kind of you know,

698
00:32:44.480 --> 00:32:47.559
<v Speaker 2>we'll say Happy Valentine's Day, but really it's just any

699
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:50.119
<v Speaker 2>other day for us, because we we were Valentine's every year.

700
00:32:50.160 --> 00:32:52.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure you and your wife feel the exact same way.

701
00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:54.799
<v Speaker 2>But the Super Bowl on Sunday ended up with a

702
00:32:54.839 --> 00:32:56.839
<v Speaker 2>result that I was, I was happy with. I was

703
00:32:56.920 --> 00:32:58.559
<v Speaker 2>I was pulling for the Eagles. They got it done

704
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:01.759
<v Speaker 2>and really didn't have much trouble with the Chiefs. Travis Kelce,

705
00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:04.480
<v Speaker 2>he's now in his mid thirties. He hasn't said what

706
00:33:04.519 --> 00:33:06.359
<v Speaker 2>he's going to do one way or the other. Mentioned

707
00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:08.559
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't going to make any kind of decision anytime soon,

708
00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:11.920
<v Speaker 2>but he did reference the wear and tear that it's

709
00:33:11.960 --> 00:33:14.400
<v Speaker 2>taken on his body to play this game for so long.

710
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 2>And obviously they've made deep runs in the postseason for

711
00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:19.359
<v Speaker 2>many years now, so that's more more of a beating

712
00:33:19.400 --> 00:33:21.839
<v Speaker 2>than other guys who aren't playing deep into the postseason.

713
00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:24.880
<v Speaker 2>When you hear of a guy that is that size,

714
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:28.160
<v Speaker 2>that age at his position, I mean, do you think

715
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.680
<v Speaker 2>that that maybe he's been I mean, everybody's playing hurt

716
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:32.680
<v Speaker 2>in this game of football. It's really really violent. But

717
00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:34.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I think this has just led to

718
00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:36.400
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people thinking that man, he's given us

719
00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:38.400
<v Speaker 2>the sound that he might retire. But I think more

720
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:39.799
<v Speaker 2>than anything, he's probably just being honest.

721
00:33:39.839 --> 00:33:39.960
<v Speaker 7>Man.

722
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:41.400
<v Speaker 2>It is it is a lot of There is a

723
00:33:41.400 --> 00:33:42.920
<v Speaker 2>lot of wear and tear that goes on your body

724
00:33:42.960 --> 00:33:44.559
<v Speaker 2>when you play in the National Football League.

725
00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:47.799
<v Speaker 7>Oh absolutely, and especially playing tight end.

726
00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:50.680
<v Speaker 8>I think we kind of lose you know, we think

727
00:33:50.720 --> 00:33:52.720
<v Speaker 8>about tight ends I can sell who are catching a

728
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:55.480
<v Speaker 8>lot of balls and very very dynamic out in the

729
00:33:55.480 --> 00:33:58.119
<v Speaker 8>open field, but also spends a lot of time blocking,

730
00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:02.400
<v Speaker 8>you know. I think that dition itself is very unique

731
00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:05.039
<v Speaker 8>in that way where they'll be on the line a

732
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:08.519
<v Speaker 8>lot and the you know, challenging defensive ends and and

733
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:10.519
<v Speaker 8>and guys a lot of times bigger than they are,

734
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:13.480
<v Speaker 8>but also taking the hits they do, you know, whether

735
00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:16.119
<v Speaker 8>it's blindside or you know, you know, out in the

736
00:34:16.119 --> 00:34:18.719
<v Speaker 8>open when they're receiving the balls. So I think that

737
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:21.559
<v Speaker 8>definitely a lot of wear and tear. I think that

738
00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:24.639
<v Speaker 8>what we find is as athletes age they have these

739
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:30.000
<v Speaker 8>conversations with their friends, family, themselves, their their support team, uh,

740
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:32.320
<v Speaker 8>every season, right, because they get to the end of.

741
00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:35.840
<v Speaker 7>The season, and you know, the further the.

742
00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:39.239
<v Speaker 8>More years they're playing, the more that they know that

743
00:34:39.239 --> 00:34:40.960
<v Speaker 8>they're getting closer to the end.

744
00:34:41.039 --> 00:34:43.239
<v Speaker 7>And so you know, they're trying to look at where

745
00:34:43.280 --> 00:34:45.679
<v Speaker 7>they are physically, how how are they able to perform?

746
00:34:46.280 --> 00:34:47.320
<v Speaker 7>You know, do they.

747
00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:50.159
<v Speaker 8>Still have that passion and drive that they that they

748
00:34:50.519 --> 00:34:53.039
<v Speaker 8>you know, they did to continue and go through a

749
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:56.400
<v Speaker 8>whole nother off season, all the training, uh, you know,

750
00:34:56.440 --> 00:34:59.159
<v Speaker 8>as well as the you know, wear and tear of

751
00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:02.280
<v Speaker 8>the season, and so yeah, I think it'd be you

752
00:35:02.280 --> 00:35:05.840
<v Speaker 8>know interesting, It's not surprising to me at all. And

753
00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:07.760
<v Speaker 8>you know, also I think that you know, in this

754
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:11.400
<v Speaker 8>for somebody like himself, just being in the media as

755
00:35:11.480 --> 00:35:11.920
<v Speaker 8>much as.

756
00:35:11.840 --> 00:35:13.880
<v Speaker 7>He has, you know, I don't care what he says.

757
00:35:13.960 --> 00:35:15.519
<v Speaker 7>I'm sure it takes its toll as well.

758
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:19.039
<v Speaker 8>Uh, And so you know, it's uh, it'll be interesting

759
00:35:19.079 --> 00:35:20.880
<v Speaker 8>to see what he comes up with.

760
00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:25.719
<v Speaker 2>So Travis Kelsey is an interesting an interesting example here

761
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:28.880
<v Speaker 2>of somebody that is getting older to where it would

762
00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:30.559
<v Speaker 2>make sense to kind of you know, wouldn't be a

763
00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:32.360
<v Speaker 2>shocker if he decided that he's kind of you know,

764
00:35:32.360 --> 00:35:34.320
<v Speaker 2>he's had a heck of a career already, but also

765
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:37.000
<v Speaker 2>it's it's for someone like myself. It's funny to think

766
00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:39.400
<v Speaker 2>about guys who play many years in the National Football

767
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:42.119
<v Speaker 2>League or the NBA to where you know they need

768
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:44.639
<v Speaker 2>the money. I mean, they probably made a lot more

769
00:35:44.679 --> 00:35:46.480
<v Speaker 2>money than I ever will, but they probably live a

770
00:35:46.519 --> 00:35:50.159
<v Speaker 2>lifestyle to where if they no longer started getting NBA

771
00:35:50.360 --> 00:35:52.800
<v Speaker 2>NFL paychecks, like it would be different. Well, he signed

772
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:56.039
<v Speaker 2>a one hundred million dollar podcast deal with his brother,

773
00:35:56.119 --> 00:35:58.480
<v Speaker 2>and I think there's got to be some level of

774
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:01.119
<v Speaker 2>him being well aware that if he doesn't play football,

775
00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:03.239
<v Speaker 2>he still has the ability to make a lot of

776
00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:06.559
<v Speaker 2>money because of his podcast and because honestly, just his fame,

777
00:36:06.599 --> 00:36:09.519
<v Speaker 2>he's connected to Taylor Swift, maybe the most famous person

778
00:36:09.880 --> 00:36:11.599
<v Speaker 2>on the planet right now. I guess what I'm getting

779
00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:14.960
<v Speaker 2>at is if other athletes put themselves in a position

780
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:17.639
<v Speaker 2>to where they can, in fact still make a whole

781
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:19.760
<v Speaker 2>lot of money. Brady makes more money calling games than

782
00:36:19.760 --> 00:36:22.039
<v Speaker 2>he did playing. I just wonder if, because it does

783
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:25.480
<v Speaker 2>take such an impact on your body, that maybe guys

784
00:36:25.559 --> 00:36:28.360
<v Speaker 2>that you wouldn't think would retire if they simply can

785
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:31.480
<v Speaker 2>because they they feel fulfilled as far as what they

786
00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:34.039
<v Speaker 2>did with the game, and they put themselves in a

787
00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:36.159
<v Speaker 2>financial situation to where they can still keep living the

788
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:39.119
<v Speaker 2>same lifestyle, and they've they've had enough success. Like I

789
00:36:39.199 --> 00:36:41.199
<v Speaker 2>just I don't think that it would be a big

790
00:36:41.239 --> 00:36:43.760
<v Speaker 2>shocker to see some guys walk away earlier than we

791
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:47.199
<v Speaker 2>used to anticipate, just because they realize, Look, I could play.

792
00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:48.440
<v Speaker 2>I love it, but man, you know what, I want

793
00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:50.039
<v Speaker 2>to be able to play with my kids, my grandkids

794
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:51.920
<v Speaker 2>when I get older. I mean, Andrew Luck, I don't

795
00:36:51.920 --> 00:36:54.480
<v Speaker 2>really remember what his situation was specifically when he stepped down,

796
00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:57.119
<v Speaker 2>but he was somebody that was really I don't mean,

797
00:36:57.159 --> 00:36:59.199
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember anybody else in his position kind of

798
00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:01.840
<v Speaker 2>doing it the way that he did. But I don't know.

799
00:37:01.880 --> 00:37:05.039
<v Speaker 2>I just think Travis Kelce stepping down would surprise a

800
00:37:05.039 --> 00:37:06.639
<v Speaker 2>lot of people, but I don't really know if it should.

801
00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:10.199
<v Speaker 8>Well, you know exactly, and I think, what what you

802
00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:12.800
<v Speaker 8>the point you made about? You know, he doesn't have

803
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:14.880
<v Speaker 8>anything else to prove, exactly, and he's going to be

804
00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:17.119
<v Speaker 8>a Hall of Famer. He's won multiple Super Bowls. You know,

805
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 8>I think I understand for the guys that are trying

806
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:22.960
<v Speaker 8>to to get that Super Bowl, uh, you know, or

807
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:26.400
<v Speaker 8>or to leave a different kind of legacy. I think

808
00:37:26.480 --> 00:37:29.159
<v Speaker 8>that you know, or you know, we're also talking about

809
00:37:29.199 --> 00:37:31.880
<v Speaker 8>the top one percent of the top one percent with

810
00:37:32.119 --> 00:37:34.639
<v Speaker 8>Brady and those guys who are who are making you know,

811
00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:36.400
<v Speaker 8>money that these you know a lot of these other

812
00:37:36.440 --> 00:37:39.320
<v Speaker 8>guys aren't making frankly, and if they're living, you know,

813
00:37:39.400 --> 00:37:41.440
<v Speaker 8>beyond their means and they're in their thirties.

814
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:43.360
<v Speaker 7>And they got a long way to go, uh you know,

815
00:37:43.400 --> 00:37:45.199
<v Speaker 7>and a lot of these guys, it's their identity.

816
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:49.519
<v Speaker 8>I think Travis Kelce has kind of shifted that just because,

817
00:37:49.559 --> 00:37:51.280
<v Speaker 8>like you said, the podcast and all the stuff, he

818
00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:54.199
<v Speaker 8>has a new identity which makes it easier a lot

819
00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:55.920
<v Speaker 8>of the guys I've worked with a lot of retired

820
00:37:56.599 --> 00:38:00.320
<v Speaker 8>pro athletes, including NFL, and you know, that's the artist

821
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:02.119
<v Speaker 8>thing for them to leave, and you're leaving it at

822
00:38:02.119 --> 00:38:04.039
<v Speaker 8>such a young age when you really think about it,

823
00:38:04.079 --> 00:38:06.599
<v Speaker 8>so they get lost. They absolutely get lost. And a

824
00:38:06.639 --> 00:38:08.840
<v Speaker 8>lot of them didn't make the money that maybe he's made.

825
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:11.800
<v Speaker 8>I mean, they made a lot of good money, enough

826
00:38:11.800 --> 00:38:14.039
<v Speaker 8>money they could probably retire for a long time on.

827
00:38:14.159 --> 00:38:17.000
<v Speaker 8>But they've also lived, like you said, with you know,

828
00:38:17.239 --> 00:38:20.320
<v Speaker 8>spending those that money which they would be saving.

829
00:38:20.840 --> 00:38:23.679
<v Speaker 7>And so I think that that identity is where they struggle.

830
00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:26.400
<v Speaker 8>They try to find that same sense of quote unquote

831
00:38:26.400 --> 00:38:28.480
<v Speaker 8>locker room and drive and passion as they had for

832
00:38:28.519 --> 00:38:29.000
<v Speaker 8>the sport.

833
00:38:29.440 --> 00:38:31.239
<v Speaker 7>And you got a lot of life to live.

834
00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:35.119
<v Speaker 8>So, you know, like you said, I think it's helping

835
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:37.639
<v Speaker 8>him knowing he has other avenues to still kind of

836
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:39.760
<v Speaker 8>stay within the sport and venture out and do some

837
00:38:39.800 --> 00:38:41.880
<v Speaker 8>things with the rest of his life that he he's

838
00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:45.360
<v Speaker 8>also interested in besides playing football, and so it will.

839
00:38:45.159 --> 00:38:47.199
<v Speaker 7>Definitely make that decision a lot easier than it could

840
00:38:47.199 --> 00:38:47.719
<v Speaker 7>be for some.

841
00:38:48.079 --> 00:38:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, not even just Travis kelcey, but if

842
00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:53.119
<v Speaker 2>you're if you're an athlete that has nothing left to

843
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:56.440
<v Speaker 2>prove you you feel you feel that your career was

844
00:38:56.559 --> 00:38:59.599
<v Speaker 2>rewarding and you still love it. It's really all you've ever done,

845
00:38:59.639 --> 00:39:01.760
<v Speaker 2>and not doing it just sounds kind of weird. I

846
00:39:01.800 --> 00:39:05.440
<v Speaker 2>think the mental factor of knowing I really have nothing

847
00:39:05.480 --> 00:39:08.480
<v Speaker 2>else to prove to anybody or even to myself, it

848
00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:11.000
<v Speaker 2>can kind of have you doing a balancing act, because

849
00:39:11.039 --> 00:39:12.760
<v Speaker 2>I think that would make it to where you're maybe

850
00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:14.840
<v Speaker 2>not giving it as much as you used to. Maybe

851
00:39:14.840 --> 00:39:16.559
<v Speaker 2>you're not loving it like you used to. It's like

852
00:39:16.559 --> 00:39:17.880
<v Speaker 2>one of those things that I think there are certain

853
00:39:17.920 --> 00:39:19.880
<v Speaker 2>athletes that they literally don't know what they would do

854
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:22.320
<v Speaker 2>if they didn't eat, sleep, and breathe the sport that

855
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:24.519
<v Speaker 2>has made them very successful and made the millionaires. But

856
00:39:24.519 --> 00:39:26.920
<v Speaker 2>whenever you don't, whenever you don't have anything to prove,

857
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:28.920
<v Speaker 2>I think it can kind of make it to where like, Okay,

858
00:39:28.960 --> 00:39:31.400
<v Speaker 2>I guess, I guess that's time. And certainly Travis Kelsey

859
00:39:31.440 --> 00:39:33.480
<v Speaker 2>is one of those guys that has nothing left to prove.

860
00:39:33.519 --> 00:39:35.039
<v Speaker 2>One of the best tight ends of all time, and

861
00:39:35.599 --> 00:39:37.159
<v Speaker 2>he's certainly had a hell of a career.

862
00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:40.519
<v Speaker 8>The other thing to kind of just quickly on that

863
00:39:40.719 --> 00:39:42.480
<v Speaker 8>is that, you know, he's also been with this team

864
00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:45.360
<v Speaker 8>for so long, and you know the reality of it is,

865
00:39:45.400 --> 00:39:47.559
<v Speaker 8>you know, it's a cutthroat business, and he's getting older

866
00:39:47.599 --> 00:39:49.400
<v Speaker 8>and they're going to start looking for younger players the

867
00:39:49.480 --> 00:39:49.960
<v Speaker 8>next the.

868
00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:51.679
<v Speaker 2>Next Yeah, yeah, you can go out on his own terms.

869
00:39:51.719 --> 00:39:53.079
<v Speaker 7>And it's like, right, I want to go on my

870
00:39:53.119 --> 00:39:53.559
<v Speaker 7>own terms.

871
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:55.679
<v Speaker 8>I don't want to bounce to three different teams in

872
00:39:55.719 --> 00:39:57.079
<v Speaker 8>the last three years of my career.

873
00:39:58.079 --> 00:40:00.239
<v Speaker 7>And so you know, look, at Aaron Rodgers. You know,

874
00:40:00.239 --> 00:40:02.000
<v Speaker 7>at some points just like get let it go.

875
00:40:02.719 --> 00:40:05.119
<v Speaker 8>You know it's time, And so I think that that's

876
00:40:05.159 --> 00:40:07.000
<v Speaker 8>also probably playing into his decision.

877
00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:11.639
<v Speaker 2>So Chucky Hepburn missed the Miami game on Saturday. He

878
00:40:11.760 --> 00:40:14.480
<v Speaker 2>left last week against Boston College in the second half

879
00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:19.119
<v Speaker 2>with what appeared to be a non contact growing injury

880
00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:21.920
<v Speaker 2>of some sorts. He did play on Wednesday, and man,

881
00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:24.199
<v Speaker 2>he looked phenomenal. It didn't look like he was bothered

882
00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:26.480
<v Speaker 2>at all by his groin. I was having a panic

883
00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:28.480
<v Speaker 2>attack for a week, thinking, oh please, Chuck's been one

884
00:40:28.519 --> 00:40:30.480
<v Speaker 2>of my favorite players to watch. What a great story

885
00:40:30.519 --> 00:40:32.199
<v Speaker 2>this team is, and he's been a big part of it,

886
00:40:32.400 --> 00:40:35.639
<v Speaker 2>a fan favorite. But he seems to be okay, do

887
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:38.159
<v Speaker 2>you think it? Again? It's just speculation, but it does

888
00:40:38.199 --> 00:40:40.920
<v Speaker 2>seem as if they were just willing to go without

889
00:40:41.000 --> 00:40:43.760
<v Speaker 2>him and let him kind of heal because just the

890
00:40:44.119 --> 00:40:46.559
<v Speaker 2>timing and the way it's played out and what we've seen.

891
00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:49.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it's something they're still monitoring, but it didn't

892
00:40:49.239 --> 00:40:52.719
<v Speaker 2>seem to really be that severe.

893
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:54.679
<v Speaker 7>Well, it definitely didn't seem to be that severe.

894
00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:58.599
<v Speaker 8>Now we'll say that at doctor strains, you know it's

895
00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:02.599
<v Speaker 8>they're usually a little easier to deal with than you

896
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:05.480
<v Speaker 8>know it's in basketball. In some sports, you know, like soccer,

897
00:41:05.599 --> 00:41:06.800
<v Speaker 8>be a little bit more of a challenge.

898
00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:08.800
<v Speaker 2>But is this a common hockey injury. I hate to

899
00:41:08.800 --> 00:41:12.039
<v Speaker 2>cut you off, but I okay, hockey see.

900
00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:14.840
<v Speaker 8>A lot more growing quote unquote growing strains and hockey

901
00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:19.719
<v Speaker 8>and adductor strains is what it is. But they tended

902
00:41:19.960 --> 00:41:24.320
<v Speaker 8>to they tend to heal very well a lot of times.

903
00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:26.440
<v Speaker 8>I'm not gonna show that that's a general statement because

904
00:41:26.480 --> 00:41:28.199
<v Speaker 8>some of them can be complicated, sure, but.

905
00:41:29.639 --> 00:41:31.280
<v Speaker 7>Also it's not like.

906
00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:35.840
<v Speaker 8>Your hamstring, so usually there's ways you can quote unquote

907
00:41:35.840 --> 00:41:38.519
<v Speaker 8>work around and a little bit better. Uh as far

908
00:41:38.559 --> 00:41:40.800
<v Speaker 8>as when they're performing and playing, you have other muscles

909
00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:43.000
<v Speaker 8>that really support some of these muscles that we strained,

910
00:41:43.079 --> 00:41:46.000
<v Speaker 8>so they don't they're not taking the brunt, uh, you know,

911
00:41:46.079 --> 00:41:48.960
<v Speaker 8>of the of your speed and your power and your

912
00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:51.239
<v Speaker 8>ability to accelerate and decelerate and all those kinds of

913
00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:54.119
<v Speaker 8>things like some muscles do. So they're they're less high

914
00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:57.159
<v Speaker 8>maintenance than you know, a calf strain or a hamstring string.

915
00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:00.800
<v Speaker 8>And obviously that's very depending on the sport and how

916
00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:04.079
<v Speaker 8>much the muscles are used. But so I think that

917
00:42:04.079 --> 00:42:05.840
<v Speaker 8>that's that's one and the other thing is it could

918
00:42:05.840 --> 00:42:08.159
<v Speaker 8>have just been mild, and you know, the risk reward

919
00:42:08.199 --> 00:42:10.159
<v Speaker 8>wasn't there to play a team you should otherwise have

920
00:42:10.199 --> 00:42:13.199
<v Speaker 8>beaten at home like they did at Miami. Wasn't pretty,

921
00:42:13.239 --> 00:42:15.039
<v Speaker 8>but but they won the game, and that's all that

922
00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:17.000
<v Speaker 8>matters at this point in the season is.

923
00:42:16.960 --> 00:42:17.519
<v Speaker 7>Win the game.

924
00:42:17.639 --> 00:42:20.719
<v Speaker 8>So I think that that's probably what played into it.

925
00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:24.320
<v Speaker 8>And obviously they didn't know that, you know that they're

926
00:42:24.320 --> 00:42:26.519
<v Speaker 8>they're post players sorted John oh Scott was going to

927
00:42:26.559 --> 00:42:28.920
<v Speaker 8>go down and you know, have the issues he did.

928
00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:32.000
<v Speaker 8>So I think that, yeah, I think that that's you know,

929
00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:34.440
<v Speaker 8>let it heal, give yourself time. I mean, all these

930
00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:36.400
<v Speaker 8>guys are getting more and more beat up. We've talked

931
00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:36.840
<v Speaker 8>about this.

932
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:37.360
<v Speaker 7>Time of year.

933
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:39.960
<v Speaker 8>You've got you know, the tournaments on the horizon, and

934
00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:41.800
<v Speaker 8>you're and they're in a good position in the acc

935
00:42:42.079 --> 00:42:45.000
<v Speaker 8>So while put yourself at risk to have your your

936
00:42:45.000 --> 00:42:47.599
<v Speaker 8>engine be out for longer than he really should be,

937
00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:50.000
<v Speaker 8>just you know, for a game that you should otherwise win.

938
00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:53.840
<v Speaker 2>All right, last question for you, Louisville has had a

939
00:42:53.960 --> 00:42:56.719
<v Speaker 2>handful of injuries this year with guys that are missing

940
00:42:56.760 --> 00:42:58.599
<v Speaker 2>the entire season, and then there were two guys that

941
00:42:58.599 --> 00:43:01.679
<v Speaker 2>that joined the program that they already had injuries, therefore

942
00:43:01.679 --> 00:43:04.480
<v Speaker 2>they weren't going to play at all. I love seeing

943
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.280
<v Speaker 2>those guys on the bench, traveling with the team and

944
00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:10.400
<v Speaker 2>supporting these guys, you know, like like the fans do.

945
00:43:11.159 --> 00:43:13.760
<v Speaker 2>When you're going through the rehab process and you know

946
00:43:13.800 --> 00:43:15.719
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to be able to play, I mean,

947
00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:17.639
<v Speaker 2>can't they I guess you got to balance it right.

948
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:19.679
<v Speaker 2>You're probably not jealous of your teammates, but man, you

949
00:43:19.719 --> 00:43:21.840
<v Speaker 2>wish you were out there playing, especially when the success

950
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:24.719
<v Speaker 2>is there. But I feel like it's also probably healthy

951
00:43:24.760 --> 00:43:26.320
<v Speaker 2>for them to, you know, still be a part of it.

952
00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:28.719
<v Speaker 2>It's not like they're isolated in their way. I just

953
00:43:28.719 --> 00:43:32.199
<v Speaker 2>feel like if you are going through really injuring, having

954
00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:33.880
<v Speaker 2>an injury that keeps you from playing a game that

955
00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:36.239
<v Speaker 2>you that you love and maybe you've never been without,

956
00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:38.400
<v Speaker 2>it could be a mental thing to we're men. This

957
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:40.840
<v Speaker 2>is just tough. I don't know what to do. I'm

958
00:43:41.039 --> 00:43:43.280
<v Speaker 2>losing my mind not being able to play, But being

959
00:43:43.280 --> 00:43:46.719
<v Speaker 2>around your teammates throughout the entire ride, that's got to

960
00:43:46.719 --> 00:43:49.199
<v Speaker 2>be beneficial for your process from top to bottom, right,

961
00:43:49.199 --> 00:43:50.760
<v Speaker 2>you want to get you have rehab. You got to

962
00:43:50.760 --> 00:43:52.239
<v Speaker 2>get healthy, You got to be patient, you got to

963
00:43:52.239 --> 00:43:54.320
<v Speaker 2>put in the work to get to get healthy to

964
00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:56.079
<v Speaker 2>where you can be out there. But I just feel

965
00:43:56.119 --> 00:43:58.360
<v Speaker 2>like these guys being around, it's almost like even though

966
00:43:58.360 --> 00:44:01.519
<v Speaker 2>they're not playing, they're still getting this experience to an extent.

967
00:44:02.360 --> 00:44:05.440
<v Speaker 7>Absolutely, it's it's critical. It's critical for them. It's and

968
00:44:05.679 --> 00:44:08.440
<v Speaker 7>then kudos for Kelsey and his staff are doing that.

969
00:44:09.800 --> 00:44:13.599
<v Speaker 8>They you know, it's easy for the injured players who

970
00:44:13.599 --> 00:44:15.960
<v Speaker 8>are out for the year to check out and find

971
00:44:16.039 --> 00:44:19.559
<v Speaker 8>other things to do because you know they they are

972
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:22.559
<v Speaker 8>stressed and it's a grind and it's very difficult, and

973
00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:25.559
<v Speaker 8>they didn't get to where they were because they didn't

974
00:44:25.559 --> 00:44:27.079
<v Speaker 8>want to be playing and want to be out there

975
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:27.599
<v Speaker 8>and show.

976
00:44:27.440 --> 00:44:28.000
<v Speaker 7>What they can do.

977
00:44:28.079 --> 00:44:30.920
<v Speaker 8>And and so for them to stay motivated, they need

978
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:32.719
<v Speaker 8>to feel the success of the team. They need to

979
00:44:32.760 --> 00:44:34.880
<v Speaker 8>feel the camaraderie their teammates. They need to be a

980
00:44:34.920 --> 00:44:37.400
<v Speaker 8>part of what you work hard to do, which is

981
00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:38.880
<v Speaker 8>the games. I mean, you know, you go through the

982
00:44:38.880 --> 00:44:41.280
<v Speaker 8>grind of the practices and all the film study and

983
00:44:41.280 --> 00:44:43.800
<v Speaker 8>everything like that so you can play. And you know,

984
00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:46.159
<v Speaker 8>they need to feel that because they're also grinding and

985
00:44:46.199 --> 00:44:48.960
<v Speaker 8>watching film and bettering themselves. A lot of them are

986
00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:51.639
<v Speaker 8>in practice and they're doing certain things. They're just not playing,

987
00:44:51.679 --> 00:44:54.079
<v Speaker 8>and so for them to be able to to stay

988
00:44:54.119 --> 00:44:58.079
<v Speaker 8>engaged with the team is absolutely critical to success of

989
00:44:58.159 --> 00:45:01.679
<v Speaker 8>their rehab process. You knowbviously they're working with a team,

990
00:45:02.079 --> 00:45:05.559
<v Speaker 8>rehab professionals and stream coach and sports side.

991
00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:08.639
<v Speaker 7>To all to help and nutrition to help them.

992
00:45:08.719 --> 00:45:10.679
<v Speaker 8>But at the same time, there's nothing that's going to

993
00:45:10.719 --> 00:45:13.280
<v Speaker 8>replace that camaraderie they have and feeling a part of

994
00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:15.719
<v Speaker 8>the team, which they absolutely need in order to help

995
00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:18.320
<v Speaker 8>them be successful. And that's part of their goal and

996
00:45:18.320 --> 00:45:20.559
<v Speaker 8>that and that gives them the taste of those goals

997
00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:22.360
<v Speaker 8>to be able to be out there and visualize them

998
00:45:22.559 --> 00:45:25.840
<v Speaker 8>themselves out playing in that particular game and moment, so

999
00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:27.880
<v Speaker 8>that way next season when they're ready to come back,

1000
00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:30.639
<v Speaker 8>they're you know, they're they're not losing a step. They

1001
00:45:30.800 --> 00:45:32.679
<v Speaker 8>know where they need to be and they know the

1002
00:45:32.760 --> 00:45:34.719
<v Speaker 8>expectations when they're ready to start playing.

1003
