<v Speaker 3>I will remind you.

14
00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:59.439
<v Speaker 2>Coming up this weekend, our friend's over at the Jefferson

15
00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:02.679
<v Speaker 2>Animal Host they're going to have their pet blood Bank event,

16
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:05.799
<v Speaker 2>which it's pints for palls and people, that's the name

17
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 2>of the event, and they are doing it to raise

18
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:12.959
<v Speaker 2>awareness and educate folks about how pets can donate blood.

19
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:15.840
<v Speaker 2>And they're also of course looking to get people to

20
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:18.879
<v Speaker 2>not only learn about it, but participate have their pets.

21
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:21.000
<v Speaker 2>See if they well, I guess you would have to

22
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:22.519
<v Speaker 2>see if your pet is a I don't think your

23
00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:23.879
<v Speaker 2>pets are going to show up and knock on the

24
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:25.680
<v Speaker 2>door and say, hey, am.

25
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.400
<v Speaker 3>I do I qualify to be a pet blood donor?

26
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:29.239
<v Speaker 2>But if they did, that would be pretty cool, right

27
00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 2>either way, if your pet, your dog is fifty pounds

28
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.040
<v Speaker 2>or less or your cat is ten pounds or less,

29
00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:37.799
<v Speaker 2>they could qualify. And if they qualify and they donate blood,

30
00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:39.319
<v Speaker 2>what that can do is help it save up to

31
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:41.480
<v Speaker 2>four to six lives. So it's coming up this Saturday,

32
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:44.640
<v Speaker 2>ten am to two pm. Pints for pausing people, Jefferson

33
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 2>Animal Hospital on outer Loop, Bring your pets, bring your family,

34
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.599
<v Speaker 2>and they'll have food, live demonstrations on the pet blood donations,

35
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:53.680
<v Speaker 2>just to give you a chance to see how it works.

36
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:57.599
<v Speaker 2>And great cause obviously and should be a lot of fun.

37
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.640
<v Speaker 2>So again, you can visit Pet Blood Bank to get

38
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:02.239
<v Speaker 2>more info where you can go, or you can give

39
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:06.280
<v Speaker 2>them a call five ooh to nine hundred pets. All right,

40
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:08.319
<v Speaker 2>I got some good news, and I'm sure you know

41
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:10.560
<v Speaker 2>this is something you guys have really been losing sleep about.

42
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:12.520
<v Speaker 2>You've probably been stressing about it. You might want to

43
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.599
<v Speaker 2>sit down because this might bring you know, some very

44
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.599
<v Speaker 2>just uncontrollable emotion out of you. I say that all

45
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:21.719
<v Speaker 2>very sarcastically. I hope you guys can pick up on

46
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:26.360
<v Speaker 2>the sarcasm there. But I'd come to you today in

47
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:29.360
<v Speaker 2>my vehicle that I did not have for twenty seven days.

48
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:33.039
<v Speaker 2>So finally I got my car back and I missed it.

49
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad to have it back, But as we discussed

50
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:38.879
<v Speaker 2>earlier in the show, I still can't help but feel

51
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:41.919
<v Speaker 2>like a pit in my stomach about the whole situation.

52
00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:44.439
<v Speaker 2>And when I think about it and I talk about

53
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:47.520
<v Speaker 2>it like it just it takes me to a place

54
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:49.439
<v Speaker 2>mentally I don't want to be at and I can't

55
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:51.360
<v Speaker 2>really control that. So I'm sure I'll get over it

56
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:52.840
<v Speaker 2>over time. But there have been some people that have

57
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:56.199
<v Speaker 2>sent in some, you know, some suggestions on how to,

58
00:02:56.240 --> 00:03:00.199
<v Speaker 2>you know, get over it. Many have just told me, know,

59
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:02.840
<v Speaker 2>sack up, grow up, get over it. I mean, that

60
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:05.039
<v Speaker 2>may be the best advice I've gotten so far. Others

61
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 2>have told me to talk to a therapist. Maybe that's it,

62
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:09.479
<v Speaker 2>And it's not really that. It's not that deep, it's

63
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:12.479
<v Speaker 2>not that serious. But I thought yesterday would be like

64
00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 2>the ultimate day where I realized because it was good

65
00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:19.080
<v Speaker 2>for me to go to the store where this all happened,

66
00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:21.919
<v Speaker 2>and I had to sign some documents, just I guess

67
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.599
<v Speaker 2>signing off that that you know, they me confirming via

68
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:28.199
<v Speaker 2>signature that they have in fact repaired any damage as

69
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.680
<v Speaker 2>they that they caused from what they did. And I

70
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.360
<v Speaker 2>could just tell that the manager, who you know, was

71
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 2>the person who did it, like felt bad, like I

72
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 2>could just I could feel it, and I feel sad

73
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 2>for her because she didn't mean to do it, and

74
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure she's probably been in trouble and like felt

75
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:48.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I know she felt bad. But here I

76
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:51.520
<v Speaker 2>am after not having my car for like a month,

77
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:53.960
<v Speaker 2>and I'm the one feeling bad, Like what like that?

78
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:56.400
<v Speaker 2>It's just like it's it's it's got my mind and

79
00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:58.800
<v Speaker 2>it's a pretzel as far as just how you know,

80
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:03.240
<v Speaker 2>But others have asked, like do I like if I

81
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:07.000
<v Speaker 2>thought about hiring an attorney to do what like they

82
00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:11.280
<v Speaker 2>did fix it? I mean, if I went to Judge Judy,

83
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:12.919
<v Speaker 2>which would be awesome, and by the way, like I

84
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:14.639
<v Speaker 2>may actually for the first time have a chance to

85
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:17.399
<v Speaker 2>go to Judge Judy because I love Judge Judy. It's

86
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:20.079
<v Speaker 2>it's a weird and random thing like when I when

87
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:23.439
<v Speaker 2>when I put it this way, like I watch more

88
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:26.839
<v Speaker 2>Judge Judy than I'd be willing to admit to you guys.

89
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's it's an unhealthy obsession where I just

90
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 2>binge Judge Judy. If I got nothing going on, I'm

91
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 2>going to fire up YouTube TV. I got them all DVRD,

92
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:38.639
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think it's as good. But now she's

93
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>got her show Judy Justice on Amazon Prime and it's

94
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:43.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's it's where I get my fixed for

95
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.800
<v Speaker 2>Judge Judy. So but but if I did, like what

96
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:48.720
<v Speaker 2>would be my like, hey, you owe me for like

97
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:51.160
<v Speaker 2>I didn't, like, you know, I didn't lose out on work.

98
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:51.680
<v Speaker 3>I didn't.

99
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 2>I didn't have a vehicle. I was able to use

100
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:58.040
<v Speaker 2>a vehicle without paying anybody I borrowed. Remember I was

101
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.720
<v Speaker 2>blessed Nana for a little while there, and then I

102
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:03.600
<v Speaker 2>was able to use vehicles here at work. Think thanks

103
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:06.519
<v Speaker 2>to the company for you know, having vehicles that they

104
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:07.160
<v Speaker 2>let me use.

105
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:08.279
<v Speaker 3>And then I.

106
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Used a vehicle that the dealership who was fixing the

107
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:12.879
<v Speaker 2>car let me use that I didn't have to pay for.

108
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:16.199
<v Speaker 2>So like, I'm not really out any money I could

109
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:18.040
<v Speaker 2>have been, but like I would be lying if I

110
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:20.319
<v Speaker 2>said I missed out on this day of work in

111
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:22.720
<v Speaker 2>these wages. So like, all in all, it could have

112
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:25.279
<v Speaker 2>been worse for me. So maybe I just need to

113
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.480
<v Speaker 2>remind myself of that. But I've just never been in

114
00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:31.240
<v Speaker 2>this position where I can claim that, like I was

115
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:37.360
<v Speaker 2>very much, you know, wrong by a company that did

116
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:39.639
<v Speaker 2>do their best. I think to mean they could have

117
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:42.399
<v Speaker 2>done a lot better, but like they did fix it

118
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:44.439
<v Speaker 2>just took a lot longer than expected and they never

119
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:47.560
<v Speaker 2>really like nobody from the higher ups really seemed to

120
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 2>care that, like the whole thing happened. So I just

121
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:52.120
<v Speaker 2>need to move on from it, and I'll probably never

122
00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:55.040
<v Speaker 2>talk about it again after today, but it is something

123
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:59.639
<v Speaker 2>that here and there still I get asked about, so

124
00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:02.000
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't be shocked. And I'm not kidding when I

125
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.319
<v Speaker 2>go to the game, because there are people who probably

126
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:06.199
<v Speaker 2>listen to this show here and there throughout the day.

127
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:07.879
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they listened a couple times a week. I mean,

128
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:10.360
<v Speaker 2>I think if you're not listening every day for three

129
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:12.600
<v Speaker 2>full hours, you need to re evaluate your priorities. But

130
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:14.680
<v Speaker 2>you know that's up to you. I can't control that,

131
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:16.480
<v Speaker 2>but i'd be willing to bed whenever we go to

132
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.199
<v Speaker 2>the game on Saturday. We're gonna I'm going with the

133
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 2>family again, my wife, and we're gonna take Moose. Like

134
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:23.800
<v Speaker 2>I bet somebody ask me about my car, because whenever

135
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:26.560
<v Speaker 2>I was you know, whenever I shared the story initially

136
00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:29.279
<v Speaker 2>when it was just happening, I mean it was. I

137
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:31.680
<v Speaker 2>mean it's a story a lot of people probably didn't believe,

138
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 2>but it was true for.

139
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:35.560
<v Speaker 4>What it's worth. And I don't say this just to

140
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:37.680
<v Speaker 4>toot your horn. I think you handle it about as

141
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:39.959
<v Speaker 4>well as you could have. And I'm not referring to

142
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.000
<v Speaker 4>like the on air stuff. I know for some reason

143
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:43.720
<v Speaker 4>you're not happy about the way you handled that, which

144
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:45.720
<v Speaker 4>I don't really have an opinion on it, but overall,

145
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.639
<v Speaker 4>I feel like I don't know if I would have

146
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:50.319
<v Speaker 4>handled it any better, is what I'm trying to say.

147
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:50.680
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

148
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:52.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I again, I just had fear that I

149
00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:56.160
<v Speaker 2>was going to have to like go buy a new

150
00:06:56.199 --> 00:07:01.279
<v Speaker 2>car and have to like pay an attorney to like

151
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.639
<v Speaker 2>help me try to fight with AutoZone. And when it

152
00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:06.800
<v Speaker 2>comes to corporations that have the ability from a legal standpoint,

153
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:09.079
<v Speaker 2>like they got more resources than I do, right, Like

154
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:11.279
<v Speaker 2>they would just hope that I would eventually give up,

155
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.879
<v Speaker 2>and I didn't. You know, I probably would have fought

156
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.000
<v Speaker 2>until I couldn't anymore. But like, it just was I

157
00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:19.399
<v Speaker 2>was kind of embarrassed about how I handled it when

158
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:21.120
<v Speaker 2>you and I would just talk about it, because you know,

159
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:22.800
<v Speaker 2>John can attest to this, like I would get going

160
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:24.279
<v Speaker 2>on and I would just lose my mind, which I think

161
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:26.279
<v Speaker 2>most I don't know, I tell myself and I try

162
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:28.959
<v Speaker 2>to convince myself that most people would, but you know,

163
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. It was a learning experience for me.

164
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.439
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm kind of an adult. I'm thirty six now.

165
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:37.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean I kind of at times, you know, get

166
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:38.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is this is what I do for

167
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 2>a living, so I get to, you know, live a

168
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:43.639
<v Speaker 2>life that at times I don't really feel like an adult.

169
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:45.399
<v Speaker 2>I mean I say that jokingly, like I am a

170
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.759
<v Speaker 2>grown up who has children and whatnot, and you know

171
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:50.399
<v Speaker 2>there's some sarcasm here when I'm saying it. But it

172
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:51.800
<v Speaker 2>was one of those things where I'm like, this could

173
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:54.399
<v Speaker 2>potentially turn into like a real life grown up problem

174
00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:56.879
<v Speaker 2>that it's going to inconvenience me, and I don't want

175
00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.639
<v Speaker 2>to deal with that. But you know, it is what

176
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:01.279
<v Speaker 2>it is. And again, I'm sure a lot of you

177
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:04.519
<v Speaker 2>right now are feeling much better about everything knowing that

178
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.639
<v Speaker 2>I got my car back. And again I'm being sarcastic,

179
00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:12.879
<v Speaker 2>and I I'm not going to mention the name of

180
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:14.759
<v Speaker 2>that company ever again on this show.

181
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:16.839
<v Speaker 4>I wish they'd stop running ads on this show. And

182
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:18.519
<v Speaker 4>I don't think I know the I know, the brass

183
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:20.680
<v Speaker 4>at iHeart doesn't really you know, at least our brass.

184
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.680
<v Speaker 4>They don't necessarily decide how that works. But anytime I

185
00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:26.199
<v Speaker 4>hear commercial from that company, I just almost like, really.

186
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, we had somebody calling, was it last week who

187
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:31.399
<v Speaker 2>was like, hey, I needed windshield wipers and there were

188
00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:34.759
<v Speaker 2>there was a competing store across the street, and I

189
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.559
<v Speaker 2>decided to go there instead, and I'm like yeah, And

190
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:40.120
<v Speaker 2>then I'm like, well, you know, and I meant that,

191
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:42.320
<v Speaker 2>and thank you to those who have decided to, you know,

192
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:46.720
<v Speaker 2>support me, and by not giving them business, which doesn't

193
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:48.559
<v Speaker 2>really impact me by any means they're gonna be just fine.

194
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:50.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean they could, like, they could have ruined my car,

195
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:52.919
<v Speaker 2>and you know, it could have been a lot worse

196
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:54.639
<v Speaker 2>for me, and they'd still would have been okay. Regardless

197
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:56.200
<v Speaker 2>of what I would have done, because I'm again it's

198
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:58.440
<v Speaker 2>it all comes back to feeling helpless about it and

199
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:00.240
<v Speaker 2>not really knowing like what what I can and do,

200
00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:03.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, to get their attention, to make them make

201
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:08.240
<v Speaker 2>it right. So anyways, we'll move on, all right, don't

202
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.919
<v Speaker 2>forget coming up on Saturday. We've got you covered for

203
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:12.879
<v Speaker 2>game coverage, I mean, the game itself.

204
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:13.879
<v Speaker 3>We won't be here.

205
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean you can stay here if you'd like. I'm

206
00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:18.440
<v Speaker 2>not sure what you'll hear, but I'll be watching Louisville

207
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:20.799
<v Speaker 2>and Miami. But before that, I'm going to have the

208
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:23.879
<v Speaker 2>pregame show, which is from eleven to noon, and it'll

209
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:26.919
<v Speaker 2>be it'll be myself and we'll get you set for

210
00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:29.919
<v Speaker 2>kickoff the Louisville Football Pregame Show percent about Pellow Windows

211
00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:32.679
<v Speaker 2>and Doors of Central Kentucky and Jefferson Animal Hospital. And

212
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:34.919
<v Speaker 2>then as soon as the game ends, we'll go live

213
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.200
<v Speaker 2>for the louisvill Football postgame Show presented by alex Arwhite

214
00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:40.559
<v Speaker 2>Lawyers to Distracted Driver dot com.

215
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:42.039
<v Speaker 3>This week.

216
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Really, as of now we're in the five o'clock hour

217
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.639
<v Speaker 2>on a Wednesday. Not much has changed for me as

218
00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 2>far as like how I feel about the game, and

219
00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:51.080
<v Speaker 2>not that that would have an impact on the game.

220
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:54.519
<v Speaker 2>But usually I go through a routine throughout the week

221
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:57.559
<v Speaker 2>when you play. When you play an opponent like Miami,

222
00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:59.799
<v Speaker 2>meaning a team that you know, even if you play well,

223
00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:04.679
<v Speaker 2>you lose because they're good. I just I'm I'm done

224
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:08.679
<v Speaker 2>trying to I guess convince myself that you know, this

225
00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:10.960
<v Speaker 2>is the game where they clean it up. Doesn't mean

226
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.480
<v Speaker 2>that they won't. I hope they will, but I kind

227
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:19.399
<v Speaker 2>of feel like the last really, the last three weeks,

228
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:23.399
<v Speaker 2>the last three games, you have been opportunities for you

229
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:29.200
<v Speaker 2>to work towards cleaning things up, avoiding mistakes that seem

230
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:33.399
<v Speaker 2>pretty avoidable, and they haven't done it, you know, and

231
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:35.679
<v Speaker 2>that's just something that we have to acknowledge. Doesn't mean

232
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:40.000
<v Speaker 2>that they're terrible, doesn't mean that they are completely incapable

233
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:46.000
<v Speaker 2>of playing clean football and just looking the part. When

234
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:47.519
<v Speaker 2>I say looking the part, I don't even mean from

235
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:51.559
<v Speaker 2>a talent perspective. I just mean from like an organizational standpoint.

236
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:54.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean doesn't mean they can't. It's just at this

237
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.440
<v Speaker 2>point you are where you are. I mean, when they

238
00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:00.080
<v Speaker 2>played Georgia Tech in a game that they won, and

239
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:04.799
<v Speaker 2>they made winning plays. I remember on the postgame show

240
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.159
<v Speaker 2>and that following Monday giving Georgia Tech a lot of

241
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.320
<v Speaker 2>credit and Brent Key a lot of credit for keeping

242
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:14.960
<v Speaker 2>you from playing clean football. And I still think that's true.

243
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.639
<v Speaker 2>Georgia Tech. They're they're a gritty team, Like I wouldn't

244
00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:20.879
<v Speaker 2>be shocked if if they beat Notre Dame this weekend.

245
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:23.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I mean, it's going to be a big

246
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:25.919
<v Speaker 2>crowd there in Atlanta for them, and you know, that's

247
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:27.639
<v Speaker 2>the kind of game. I could see Georgia Tech pulling

248
00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:29.279
<v Speaker 2>off the upset because I don't really think Notre Dame's

249
00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:32.360
<v Speaker 2>all that special. So I still think they're a gritty

250
00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:35.000
<v Speaker 2>team that does a lot to make you have to

251
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:37.159
<v Speaker 2>beat them, But maybe not the way you want to write.

252
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they played Georgia within a score last year.

253
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:43.399
<v Speaker 2>He's knocked off a few ranked teams. But what I

254
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:45.960
<v Speaker 2>guess ignored was that, like maybe that's just Louisville, that

255
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:48.080
<v Speaker 2>they are a team that is going to make some

256
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:51.639
<v Speaker 2>mistakes and that is going to you know, commit some

257
00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:55.559
<v Speaker 2>silly penalties and whatnot. And again they took advantage of

258
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:57.879
<v Speaker 2>mistakes that Georgia Tech made and that changed the game, right,

259
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 2>You being able to get a quick score because Haines

260
00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:04.559
<v Speaker 2>King didn't realize that, you know, I mean, I don't

261
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:06.639
<v Speaker 2>know what he realized. He made a really bone headed mistake,

262
00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:09.440
<v Speaker 2>and you know, Louisville was able to convert that into

263
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>a touchdown in the end zone. Same thing when you

264
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:13.399
<v Speaker 2>block the field goal and took it to the house.

265
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:16.639
<v Speaker 2>Like some would say that that's lucky. Clearly it's not

266
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:19.200
<v Speaker 2>a play you just bank on happening or I mean

267
00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:21.240
<v Speaker 2>both those plays or plays you don't expect to happen.

268
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:23.879
<v Speaker 2>But you were there and you were able to really

269
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:27.440
<v Speaker 2>make an opponent pay for them not playing clean football.

270
00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:30.679
<v Speaker 2>And again, I'm not trying to take that went away

271
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:32.720
<v Speaker 2>from him, but it was a bigger sign than I

272
00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:34.399
<v Speaker 2>realized at the time, because then you go to South

273
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:37.200
<v Speaker 2>Bend and you make a lot of avoidable mistakes and

274
00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:40.200
<v Speaker 2>just keep shooting yourself on the foot and we're sloppy

275
00:12:40.919 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 2>and it cost you.

276
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:43.600
<v Speaker 3>SMU.

277
00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:46.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I will give them a lot of credit.

278
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:48.240
<v Speaker 2>They were just a lot better than I anticipated, and

279
00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:50.759
<v Speaker 2>they were a big factor and why they won that game.

280
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:55.039
<v Speaker 2>But Louisville also again continue to make, you know, silly mistakes,

281
00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:59.840
<v Speaker 2>especially the lack of communication on defense and just not

282
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:02.480
<v Speaker 2>really knowing what I mean, just the game plan there

283
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:04.960
<v Speaker 2>was just bad. And you know, Jeff essentially said it

284
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:07.799
<v Speaker 2>after the game, and the Virginia game was a chance

285
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:10.240
<v Speaker 2>to go beat a team that you know you could

286
00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:14.000
<v Speaker 2>probably still make similar mistakes and beat because you're better

287
00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:18.360
<v Speaker 2>than them. And that's really what happened. I mean, if

288
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.799
<v Speaker 2>you believe that they turned the corner in a major

289
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:24.480
<v Speaker 2>way because they won, that's your opinion, I mean, don't.

290
00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:26.360
<v Speaker 2>I didn't see it that way. Again, a win is

291
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:28.200
<v Speaker 2>always better than a loss. But I still think they

292
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:31.159
<v Speaker 2>were They looked like the same team they'd been in

293
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:33.799
<v Speaker 2>previous weeks. They just you know, played a team that

294
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:38.720
<v Speaker 2>wasn't quite as good. And maybe their defensive communication was

295
00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:40.840
<v Speaker 2>better because Ron English moved from the booth to the

296
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:42.879
<v Speaker 2>sideline and all that, but let's be real, they still

297
00:13:42.919 --> 00:13:46.440
<v Speaker 2>at times made crucial mistakes at the worst possible times.

298
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:50.279
<v Speaker 2>So doesn't mean they can't get it fixed. They just

299
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:52.200
<v Speaker 2>haven't yet, and I think six games in you just

300
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:54.519
<v Speaker 2>have to look in the mirror and acknowledge who you

301
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:57.519
<v Speaker 2>are as a team. So there's no better time to

302
00:13:57.519 --> 00:14:01.080
<v Speaker 2>get it fixed than now, because a win here could

303
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:05.080
<v Speaker 2>could really, not only for the fans, not only for

304
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:07.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, the potential acc race, but I think for

305
00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:10.679
<v Speaker 2>this group because they look, they know who, they know

306
00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:13.840
<v Speaker 2>that they've come out and underwhelmed as far as just

307
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:18.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, mistakes that I I, you know, what do

308
00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:21.600
<v Speaker 2>I know? I've never played football in my life, doesn't

309
00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:23.000
<v Speaker 2>mean I don't you know, doesn't mean I don't know

310
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:26.000
<v Speaker 2>the game and whatnot. And I'm sure there's many including

311
00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:27.559
<v Speaker 2>you listening, that know it better than me. But let's

312
00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:29.440
<v Speaker 2>be real, some of these mistakes they make are just

313
00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:31.120
<v Speaker 2>ones that you should easily be able to avoid. You

314
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:33.360
<v Speaker 2>don't even need to know football to know that, but

315
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:34.799
<v Speaker 2>you just got to clean You got to clean it up.

316
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 2>And if they clean it up, I think they could

317
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:39.080
<v Speaker 2>get a real big boost because they would know, Hey,

318
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:41.720
<v Speaker 2>if we do in fact come ready to play, we're

319
00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:45.559
<v Speaker 2>more disciplined, we don't hurt ourselves as much. We can

320
00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:48.000
<v Speaker 2>go out and win every game left on the schedule.

321
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not predicting that would happen, but like, if you

322
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:53.440
<v Speaker 2>can beat Miami at home, I think that means you

323
00:14:53.480 --> 00:14:55.919
<v Speaker 2>can beat anybody left on your schedule. Now Clemson at

324
00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:58.519
<v Speaker 2>their place, that's going to be a tall task because

325
00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:02.120
<v Speaker 2>clemson't doesn't lose many games at home. Although I'm really

326
00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:04.320
<v Speaker 2>curious to see what happens in this Virginia Clemson game.

327
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:06.879
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be on at noon, just like Louisville and Miami,

328
00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:09.519
<v Speaker 2>but Clemson twenty one point favorites. I guess that's not

329
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.000
<v Speaker 2>surprising considering that Clemson has been on a tear ever

330
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:17.759
<v Speaker 2>since they lost to Georgia. But I'm now to the

331
00:15:17.799 --> 00:15:19.919
<v Speaker 2>point where I'm just anxious. I want to see what

332
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:24.080
<v Speaker 2>this Louisville team, what they do with how they look.

333
00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:27.399
<v Speaker 2>The lines moved a little bit, though, I think it

334
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:29.519
<v Speaker 2>was three and a half, then four, and now we're

335
00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:33.639
<v Speaker 2>sitting at Louisville plus five, so underdogs but not by

336
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:35.200
<v Speaker 2>a huge margin. But there has been a little bit

337
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.120
<v Speaker 2>of movement there, and that's that's really kind of what

338
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.720
<v Speaker 2>I expected there to be through throughout the week here.

339
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:42.919
<v Speaker 2>And it's really I think more so Miami than like

340
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:45.759
<v Speaker 2>Miami has clearly gotten more attention throughout this year than

341
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:48.159
<v Speaker 2>Louisville has for obvious reasons. They're undefeated, they look like

342
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:51.440
<v Speaker 2>the best team in the ACC right now, despite having

343
00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:55.720
<v Speaker 2>some close calls here as of late. But I just

344
00:15:55.759 --> 00:15:57.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, and again I guess I should. You know,

345
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:01.559
<v Speaker 2>if Louisville does end up winning, I won't care what

346
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:05.960
<v Speaker 2>the national reaction is. But my prediction would be that

347
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:09.360
<v Speaker 2>it'll be that the ACC doesn't really have a great team,

348
00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:12.000
<v Speaker 2>because despite that being their first loss, they could have

349
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:14.080
<v Speaker 2>easily lost to Virginia Tech, who people don't think is

350
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:18.200
<v Speaker 2>any good. And cow was up, you know, twenty points

351
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:21.120
<v Speaker 2>nearly on him in the in the second half of

352
00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.720
<v Speaker 2>that game, So just be prepared that that'll be the

353
00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:24.519
<v Speaker 2>noise out there.

354
00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:25.639
<v Speaker 3>But you know, I won't.

355
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:27.519
<v Speaker 2>I won't care, and I would assume most louis of

356
00:16:27.559 --> 00:16:31.000
<v Speaker 2>fans won't care either, because, hey, you need this win

357
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:34.120
<v Speaker 2>to get you back to where you feel like this

358
00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:36.919
<v Speaker 2>could still be somewhat of a special season. Now you

359
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:39.039
<v Speaker 2>don't have as much control over it as you once did,

360
00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:42.480
<v Speaker 2>and that's what happens whenever you have one an early loss,

361
00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:44.600
<v Speaker 2>like you do to SMU, but also when you have

362
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:48.960
<v Speaker 2>really high expectations. And I don't think those expectations were misguided.

363
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:53.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they were over the top. Now, again,

364
00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:55.759
<v Speaker 2>as I've said before, and I probably should say it more,

365
00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:58.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm never going to be somebody that says that if

366
00:16:58.120 --> 00:16:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Louisville's not one of the twelve teams in the play

367
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:02.399
<v Speaker 2>and that means the season is a disappointment and it's

368
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:04.880
<v Speaker 2>a failure. And I got the since after they lost

369
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.440
<v Speaker 2>to SMU that there were people that thought that. And look,

370
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:09.319
<v Speaker 2>if you feel that way, feel however you want to feel.

371
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:13.440
<v Speaker 2>I just think that's a very I mean, you're gonna

372
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.240
<v Speaker 2>be pretty miserable because even though the playoff has expanded

373
00:17:16.319 --> 00:17:18.880
<v Speaker 2>from four to twelve, it's clearly much more of a

374
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:21.240
<v Speaker 2>realistic thing. It's still gonna be really hard to do. Like,

375
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:23.160
<v Speaker 2>it's not gonna be something that you can just say, yeah,

376
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:25.160
<v Speaker 2>we were all right this year, made the playoff and

377
00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:26.720
<v Speaker 2>lost in the first game. No, I think you know,

378
00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:30.039
<v Speaker 2>there's gonna be some real stiff competition for those spots.

379
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:32.759
<v Speaker 2>And let's be honest, the league you're in is not

380
00:17:32.920 --> 00:17:35.119
<v Speaker 2>one that's gonna be first or second in line? Do

381
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:36.880
<v Speaker 2>you get a second team in if you don't win

382
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:37.400
<v Speaker 2>your league?

383
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:40.559
<v Speaker 3>Real quick? Before we get to a break.

384
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:44.519
<v Speaker 2>The current the current numbers here, it looks like I

385
00:17:44.519 --> 00:17:47.759
<v Speaker 2>guess it's some books. It's Louisville plus four and a half. Although,

386
00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:51.440
<v Speaker 2>as I mentioned right now on DraftKings and FanDuel. It

387
00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:54.519
<v Speaker 2>is at Louisville plus five. But right now, eighty one

388
00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:58.920
<v Speaker 2>percent of the money that's coming I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

389
00:17:58.920 --> 00:18:01.759
<v Speaker 2>eighty one percent of the bets on the spread here

390
00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.480
<v Speaker 2>is for Miami to cover. Eighty four percent of the

391
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:10.079
<v Speaker 2>money coming in on this spread is for Miami to cover.

392
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.440
<v Speaker 2>As far as money line, there's no numbers just yet,

393
00:18:13.799 --> 00:18:17.000
<v Speaker 2>but the total is sixty one and a half and

394
00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:20.880
<v Speaker 2>the majority it's like it's fifty to fifty, well, fifty

395
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:22.599
<v Speaker 2>one forty nine as far as the bets on the

396
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:26.680
<v Speaker 2>over and under, but the money, there's seventy one percent

397
00:18:26.759 --> 00:18:29.039
<v Speaker 2>of the money coming in on the over underwager for

398
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:31.680
<v Speaker 2>this to be over sixty one and a half, which

399
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:35.359
<v Speaker 2>I would you know, I would say if if you

400
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:37.880
<v Speaker 2>end up in a game where it's looking as if

401
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:40.559
<v Speaker 2>you know in the third quarter that the the over

402
00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:44.039
<v Speaker 2>is relatively safe, I would say, that's a good sign

403
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:48.240
<v Speaker 2>for Louisville. But we'll see, all right, quick break, we'll

404
00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:49.680
<v Speaker 2>come back on the other side. We didn't talk about

405
00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:53.799
<v Speaker 2>it yesterday, but there's an update to it, and that's

406
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Jerry Jones going on a Dallas radio show and really

407
00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:01.720
<v Speaker 2>just making a complete he asked of himself, and we

408
00:19:01.839 --> 00:19:05.079
<v Speaker 2>now have his excuse as to why he did what

409
00:19:05.160 --> 00:19:08.240
<v Speaker 2>he did. And you know, billionaires rarely show much remorse,

410
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.480
<v Speaker 2>right because they they're not real relatable, they don't have

411
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:13.200
<v Speaker 2>a whole lot of awareness. And he's really showing that.

412
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:16.599
<v Speaker 2>So we'll get to that and a lot more in

413
00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:18.400
<v Speaker 2>these last thirty five minutes or so.

414
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:18.960
<v Speaker 3>Keep it locked.

415
00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:21.559
<v Speaker 2>It's Coffee and Company Field by Thornton's on Sports Talk

416
00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:27.119
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety So. I've not watched a second of any

417
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:32.279
<v Speaker 2>NBA preseason and I probably won't, but obviously, no surprise,

418
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:36.519
<v Speaker 2>Bronnie James has been talked about quite a bit. I

419
00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:38.440
<v Speaker 2>mean when I think of what I've seen as far

420
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:40.759
<v Speaker 2>as any coverage of NBA preseason, and I'm not looking

421
00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:42.960
<v Speaker 2>for it, but obviously it's I mean, it's the NBA,

422
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Bronnie and his debut, playing alongside his dad, when history's

423
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:49.960
<v Speaker 2>going to be made, like it's it's happening.

424
00:19:50.519 --> 00:19:53.839
<v Speaker 3>But man, I.

425
00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Still kind of feel for the kid because he is

426
00:19:55.799 --> 00:19:58.680
<v Speaker 2>to me technically still, I mean, he's an adult. Technically

427
00:19:58.680 --> 00:20:00.960
<v Speaker 2>he's eighteen, but like you know, this.

428
00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:03.759
<v Speaker 3>Kid had it's hard to say I feel sorry for.

429
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:06.240
<v Speaker 2>Him because again, think about his life right, Like he's

430
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:09.200
<v Speaker 2>he's even if he flames out in the NBA, which

431
00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:11.839
<v Speaker 2>he probably will, like he's going to be set for life,

432
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:16.960
<v Speaker 2>and he is going to be taking somebody spot on

433
00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:19.720
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers opening roster that is way more deserving than

434
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:21.519
<v Speaker 2>he is. So it's hard to say I feel sorry

435
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:22.920
<v Speaker 2>for him, but I don't really know how he Like

436
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:27.359
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, you know, he's probably just as delusional

437
00:20:27.400 --> 00:20:29.440
<v Speaker 2>as his dad. And because of his upbringing, despite being

438
00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:32.799
<v Speaker 2>very privileged and having a great life, he did miss

439
00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:36.480
<v Speaker 2>out on opportunities to have self awareness, if that makes sense.

440
00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:38.799
<v Speaker 2>Like he's not a normal kid, normal person at all,

441
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:41.160
<v Speaker 2>and that's not really his fault. So that's I guess

442
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:42.559
<v Speaker 2>what I mean when I say I feel bad for him.

443
00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:44.559
<v Speaker 2>And anytime I say I feel bad for him, I

444
00:20:44.599 --> 00:20:46.759
<v Speaker 2>instantly think, like, man, that sounds awful, because like this

445
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:49.359
<v Speaker 2>guy's got everything. He's in the NBA playing for the

446
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:52.319
<v Speaker 2>Lakers because his dad, you know what I mean, Like,

447
00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:55.200
<v Speaker 2>that's what it all comes down to. But here are

448
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:57.319
<v Speaker 2>his numbers in the preseason right now. He's played forty

449
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:01.119
<v Speaker 2>four minutes. He's scored four points, he has five turnovers,

450
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:05.200
<v Speaker 2>He's two of sixteen from the field, oh of seven

451
00:21:05.240 --> 00:21:12.079
<v Speaker 2>from three. And I also try to put myself in

452
00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Lebron's shoes because I would do anything for my kid

453
00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.720
<v Speaker 2>and wouldn't care what anybody thinks. Now, I would try

454
00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:21.880
<v Speaker 2>to I would try to tell myself that. I would

455
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:24.079
<v Speaker 2>also understand when you think you're helping your kid, you

456
00:21:24.119 --> 00:21:26.160
<v Speaker 2>may not. You may be putting him in situations to

457
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:29.160
<v Speaker 2>be made fun of her whatever. But as a dad,

458
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:31.079
<v Speaker 2>you may not even have that awareness because you love

459
00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 2>your kid and you'll do anything for your kid.

460
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:33.200
<v Speaker 3>That's just life.

461
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:37.240
<v Speaker 2>But like Lebron, you know he tweeted this just a

462
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:40.880
<v Speaker 2>year ago. Man, Bronny definitely better than some of these

463
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:44.680
<v Speaker 2>cats I've been watching on League Pass today. Lightweight, hilarious

464
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.319
<v Speaker 2>and then a bunch of laughing emoji's, Like Lebron didn't

465
00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:49.079
<v Speaker 2>have to tweet that. And if look, he didn't tweet

466
00:21:49.079 --> 00:21:50.799
<v Speaker 2>it and the results were still what they are, people

467
00:21:50.799 --> 00:21:54.559
<v Speaker 2>would still be clowning the whole situation because it just

468
00:21:54.559 --> 00:21:57.960
<v Speaker 2>seems like a circus type thing. But like Lebron hadn't

469
00:21:57.960 --> 00:22:01.599
<v Speaker 2>really helped him in that regard. And again I believe,

470
00:22:01.759 --> 00:22:03.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I mean, I stand by what I said,

471
00:22:03.599 --> 00:22:05.319
<v Speaker 2>but I also feel like when it's your kid, like

472
00:22:05.359 --> 00:22:06.480
<v Speaker 2>you can get a little bit.

473
00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:08.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's hard to.

474
00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:11.799
<v Speaker 2>Be object like. For example, we never really got into it.

475
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:14.599
<v Speaker 2>We don't need to. But there were three different parents

476
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:19.240
<v Speaker 2>on Twitter that were Louisville football parents and their kids

477
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:24.240
<v Speaker 2>are really good players, and they were really just you know,

478
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:29.119
<v Speaker 2>surprised and letting it be known how surprised and disappointed

479
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:31.400
<v Speaker 2>they were in the fan base for being so upset

480
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:35.279
<v Speaker 2>after the lost SMU. And it just reminded me, like,

481
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:43.319
<v Speaker 2>there can't be two more unrelatable components within college sports

482
00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:49.200
<v Speaker 2>than fans online, especially those that are on there anonymously

483
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:54.759
<v Speaker 2>in this toxic world of Twitter. Those people and then

484
00:22:55.160 --> 00:22:59.000
<v Speaker 2>parents of players who are going to take anything you

485
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:03.119
<v Speaker 2>say about their kids performance personally because it's hard not to. So,

486
00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:08.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, if my son ever plays high level sports

487
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:11.640
<v Speaker 2>in any way to where you know there's there's a

488
00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:14.839
<v Speaker 2>fan base that's active on a social media platform, like

489
00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:17.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna know that's the last place I need to be,

490
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:22.440
<v Speaker 2>you know. So, I mean, it's nobody's fault. It's just

491
00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:25.000
<v Speaker 2>like it's it's like you did. Those those two sides

492
00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:27.759
<v Speaker 2>just have to know we probably can respect each other,

493
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:30.079
<v Speaker 2>but just stay away, Like, cause I could tell you

494
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:31.960
<v Speaker 2>how much I love your kid and I'm glad he

495
00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:33.839
<v Speaker 2>plays for u of L because he's great or place

496
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:36.240
<v Speaker 2>for Kentucky, whatever it may be. But yet if like

497
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:38.640
<v Speaker 2>we watched a game together, or we're tweeting throughout a

498
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:41.799
<v Speaker 2>game together, like you're gonna hate me because any little

499
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:43.680
<v Speaker 2>thing I say that has maybe nothing to do with

500
00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:46.279
<v Speaker 2>your kid, you're gonna probably take personal because that's what

501
00:23:46.319 --> 00:23:49.279
<v Speaker 2>a lot of parents do. So trying to give Lebron

502
00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:51.200
<v Speaker 2>the benefit of the doubt because it is his son,

503
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:53.960
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean, Like, and he's he's if

504
00:23:54.000 --> 00:23:57.279
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna leverage what you've what you've done, and what

505
00:23:57.279 --> 00:23:59.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean when I say what he's done, I mean

506
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:02.039
<v Speaker 2>he's put together a career that is up there as

507
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:04.279
<v Speaker 2>good as anybody that's ever played the sport. I mean,

508
00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:07.079
<v Speaker 2>I still would put Michael Jordan ahead of him. But like,

509
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:09.440
<v Speaker 2>even if you don't like Lebron, you can't deny his

510
00:24:09.519 --> 00:24:12.720
<v Speaker 2>greatness and the fact that he's one of the most

511
00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:15.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he's Lebron James. I mean, just he's Lebron.

512
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:20.079
<v Speaker 2>So if you are gonna leverage what you have built

513
00:24:20.119 --> 00:24:24.839
<v Speaker 2>and established and you're gonna use that to help your child.

514
00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:28.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean that in a way is understandable, but I

515
00:24:28.559 --> 00:24:31.400
<v Speaker 2>think some of the lack of awareness from everybody involved

516
00:24:31.440 --> 00:24:34.640
<v Speaker 2>has just been pretty pretty jarring, including Bronni himself, Like

517
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:38.079
<v Speaker 2>when he did the press conference after he got drafted

518
00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:40.359
<v Speaker 2>and acted like he never even thought about playing with

519
00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:42.920
<v Speaker 2>his dad. Like what, Like, I know you're young and naive,

520
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:45.640
<v Speaker 2>of course, and you don't have any awareness, but like,

521
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:50.039
<v Speaker 2>don't insult everybody's intelligence, even if they don't have much

522
00:24:50.039 --> 00:24:51.759
<v Speaker 2>of it. They would know that, Like, that's just a lie.

523
00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:53.799
<v Speaker 2>But you know who he learned from, a guy who

524
00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:56.440
<v Speaker 2>talks in front of microphones and cameras, who's done a

525
00:24:56.480 --> 00:24:59.160
<v Speaker 2>lot of the same stuff. So it's just how it is,

526
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:05.519
<v Speaker 2>all right. So Jerry Jones, he's crumbling. He is really

527
00:25:06.279 --> 00:25:09.720
<v Speaker 2>having a hard time not making it clear to everybody

528
00:25:09.759 --> 00:25:12.599
<v Speaker 2>that the Cowboy struggles with him being not only you know,

529
00:25:13.160 --> 00:25:15.039
<v Speaker 2>the owner, but the GM and he's the one making

530
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.400
<v Speaker 2>all these decisions. And you know, there's always been criticism

531
00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:20.319
<v Speaker 2>for the Cowboys, but it seems as if it's been

532
00:25:20.799 --> 00:25:23.759
<v Speaker 2>a little louder this year than ever because they just

533
00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:26.720
<v Speaker 2>paid Dack all that money and you know, it's not

534
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:28.920
<v Speaker 2>going well. Well, he does, I guess a radio hit

535
00:25:29.799 --> 00:25:31.960
<v Speaker 2>one with a show that's on one oh five point

536
00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:34.519
<v Speaker 2>three the fan in Dallas, And this was a story

537
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:36.640
<v Speaker 2>that was probably I mean it was yesterday's news, but

538
00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:38.000
<v Speaker 2>we didn't get a chance to get to it with

539
00:25:39.079 --> 00:25:42.440
<v Speaker 2>everything else going on. But he essentially threatened to have

540
00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:47.920
<v Speaker 2>the hosts of this show fired because they were asking

541
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:50.279
<v Speaker 2>him questions and really, you know, doing I mean quite

542
00:25:50.319 --> 00:25:53.480
<v Speaker 2>literally just doing their job. Have you heard this, John, I.

543
00:25:53.440 --> 00:25:56.559
<v Speaker 3>Have not, Jared. I think the counter back when you said,

544
00:25:56.559 --> 00:25:57.920
<v Speaker 3>where are you going to get the players? You can't

545
00:25:57.920 --> 00:25:59.920
<v Speaker 3>get him this week is and your you're aware of

546
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 3>all the off season topics.

547
00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:05.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but what is your counter? What is your damn counter?

548
00:26:05.599 --> 00:26:08.160
<v Speaker 5>My counter isn't want to know where you would go

549
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:11.119
<v Speaker 5>or go get it now. Don't tell me about should

550
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:12.720
<v Speaker 5>gotten a guy in the off season?

551
00:26:13.079 --> 00:26:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Why not?

552
00:26:13.799 --> 00:26:16.519
<v Speaker 5>This isn't a damn word argument just because I'm not

553
00:26:16.680 --> 00:26:19.519
<v Speaker 5>arguing with you. I'm dealing with how we line up

554
00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:23.559
<v Speaker 5>against San Francisco, not what I did wrong last week

555
00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:26.880
<v Speaker 5>or last month, or two months ago or two years ago.

556
00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:30.920
<v Speaker 5>If I really gave you guys a list of all

557
00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:33.559
<v Speaker 5>the things I've done wrong over the last few years.

558
00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:37.160
<v Speaker 5>You couldn't be on this program for the next five years.

559
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:40.519
<v Speaker 5>Steady and go over it. But every now and then

560
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:42.640
<v Speaker 5>you do some right things and at the end of

561
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:45.240
<v Speaker 5>the day you add it up and the rights give

562
00:26:45.279 --> 00:26:47.039
<v Speaker 5>you a better spot than the wrong.

563
00:26:47.400 --> 00:26:50.680
<v Speaker 2>So I'm gonna try to find this at the spot here.

564
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:55.519
<v Speaker 2>This was the Lenkier clip where here we go. Let

565
00:26:55.519 --> 00:26:56.799
<v Speaker 2>me see if I can find it right.

566
00:26:56.680 --> 00:27:01.079
<v Speaker 5>Here and sitting here and to all the good at

567
00:27:01.240 --> 00:27:04.440
<v Speaker 5>with the dishwater. You have got to be smoking something

568
00:27:04.480 --> 00:27:08.559
<v Speaker 5>over there this morning. I'm not, and I really don't,

569
00:27:08.599 --> 00:27:10.799
<v Speaker 5>and I don't even want our listeners to listen to

570
00:27:10.839 --> 00:27:16.160
<v Speaker 5>me to talk about this is not your job. Your

571
00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:19.119
<v Speaker 5>job is to let me go over all the reasons

572
00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:21.640
<v Speaker 5>that I did something and I'm sorry that I did it.

573
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:22.759
<v Speaker 5>That's not your job.

574
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:27.119
<v Speaker 3>Well, my job is to ask one job.

575
00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:29.319
<v Speaker 5>Or I'll get another. I'll get somebody else to ask

576
00:27:29.359 --> 00:27:30.039
<v Speaker 5>these questions.

577
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:34.400
<v Speaker 3>Man, Jerry, We're just we're trying to figure out why

578
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:34.960
<v Speaker 3>the team out.

579
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:38.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm not kidding it. I'm not kidding it. You're not

580
00:27:38.599 --> 00:27:41.559
<v Speaker 5>going to figure out it's what the team is doing

581
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:46.079
<v Speaker 5>right or wrong. If you are are any five or ten,

582
00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:48.880
<v Speaker 5>like you, you need to come to this meeting I'm

583
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:51.079
<v Speaker 5>going to today. There are thirty two teams. Here are

584
00:27:51.160 --> 00:27:51.960
<v Speaker 5>your geniuses.

585
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:55.480
<v Speaker 2>So this eighty seven year old man is basically saying,

586
00:27:55.480 --> 00:27:57.680
<v Speaker 2>these guys it's not their job to ask these questions

587
00:27:57.680 --> 00:27:59.839
<v Speaker 2>because they wouldn't know how to fix it themselves. The

588
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.000
<v Speaker 2>ultimate what do you know you've never been in the

589
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:05.440
<v Speaker 2>locker room kind of thing? Well, dude, the only reason

590
00:28:05.480 --> 00:28:07.799
<v Speaker 2>you're in the locker room is or involved with this

591
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:09.799
<v Speaker 2>is because you own the team and you're rich. You

592
00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:13.480
<v Speaker 2>didn't earn anything when it comes to being a GM.

593
00:28:13.559 --> 00:28:15.200
<v Speaker 2>You got a lot of money and you bought a

594
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:18.000
<v Speaker 2>team and you like play an NFL GM and everybody

595
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:21.759
<v Speaker 2>knows that. And that again lack of awareness in a

596
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:24.680
<v Speaker 2>major way there for him. But I love this story

597
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:27.720
<v Speaker 2>and what it's turned into because there's so many people

598
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:32.160
<v Speaker 2>defending these radio hosts who that is probably difficult to

599
00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:35.960
<v Speaker 2>do because here's what's scary. He could get those guys

600
00:28:35.960 --> 00:28:39.039
<v Speaker 2>fired if he wanted. He's Jerry Jones. I don't know

601
00:28:39.079 --> 00:28:42.480
<v Speaker 2>if their station has the rights to broadcast those games,

602
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:47.720
<v Speaker 2>but like you know, he could, and him just willingly

603
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:50.200
<v Speaker 2>saying that and making it clear, like I'll get I

604
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:52.400
<v Speaker 2>can get somebody else to be the person that's asking

605
00:28:52.440 --> 00:28:55.359
<v Speaker 2>these questions. And I'm not kidding. I mean, that's just

606
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:58.799
<v Speaker 2>that's that's being a bully, that's abusing your power. And

607
00:28:58.880 --> 00:29:02.079
<v Speaker 2>these guys stood up with them, and uh, you know,

608
00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:07.200
<v Speaker 2>everybody in the profession that is, you know, journalism, sports media, radio,

609
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:11.160
<v Speaker 2>even television all seemingly has the same reaction because I

610
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:12.960
<v Speaker 2>bet there's a lot of people that have in that

611
00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:15.799
<v Speaker 2>industry that have dealt with something like that, not to

612
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.000
<v Speaker 2>the level of Jerry Jones on your own show saying

613
00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:20.599
<v Speaker 2>basically without using you know, without saying it.

614
00:29:20.519 --> 00:29:22.640
<v Speaker 3>Word for word, he's got the ability to have you fired.

615
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:25.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there used to be somebody that that had

616
00:29:25.039 --> 00:29:27.440
<v Speaker 2>a lot of power around here in Louisville that would

617
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:29.680
<v Speaker 2>would let you know that pretty directly. Not on your show,

618
00:29:29.759 --> 00:29:32.240
<v Speaker 2>but you know, behind the scenes. And it's a tough

619
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:34.279
<v Speaker 2>thing because it's your livelihood and you've got a family

620
00:29:34.359 --> 00:29:37.079
<v Speaker 2>to take care of it, it's it's your career, and

621
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:39.480
<v Speaker 2>you could know you'd be doing you're doing your job,

622
00:29:39.519 --> 00:29:41.680
<v Speaker 2>but there's people that you know, may take issue with

623
00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:43.720
<v Speaker 2>what you say and what kind of questions you ask

624
00:29:43.799 --> 00:29:47.039
<v Speaker 2>and what you and what direction you're going in. And

625
00:29:47.480 --> 00:29:51.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't know anybody that's ever gotten super thin skinned

626
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:55.200
<v Speaker 2>and bothered by what a you know what a radio host,

627
00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:59.599
<v Speaker 2>a blogger, a writer, a journalist, columnist TV. I don't

628
00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:03.359
<v Speaker 2>know anybody body who's been from the inside, meaning a coach,

629
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:06.519
<v Speaker 2>a player, or a GM or an owner like Jerry Jones.

630
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:10.359
<v Speaker 2>You've never looked good doing that like coming after, because

631
00:30:10.359 --> 00:30:13.599
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing. One, it's a tell that you are

632
00:30:13.640 --> 00:30:16.440
<v Speaker 2>insecure and you're worried about the wrong things instead of

633
00:30:16.440 --> 00:30:19.480
<v Speaker 2>getting things fixed, You're worried about what people are saying.

634
00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:23.240
<v Speaker 2>It's it's it's the ultimate sign that you're unraveling and

635
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:24.799
<v Speaker 2>you may not actually be fit to be doing the

636
00:30:24.880 --> 00:30:28.319
<v Speaker 2>job you're doing. But you know, it goes back to

637
00:30:28.359 --> 00:30:31.480
<v Speaker 2>any time there's struggles going on within a program and

638
00:30:31.599 --> 00:30:35.279
<v Speaker 2>you hear rather be a coach making a snide comment,

639
00:30:36.119 --> 00:30:40.000
<v Speaker 2>or even an athletic director or even players. I think

640
00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:43.640
<v Speaker 2>when they start talking about fan negativity when things are bad,

641
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:44.759
<v Speaker 2>you're cooked.

642
00:30:45.519 --> 00:30:46.079
<v Speaker 3>You're cooked.

643
00:30:46.319 --> 00:30:48.559
<v Speaker 2>You're instead of addressing what you got to do to

644
00:30:48.599 --> 00:30:51.240
<v Speaker 2>get better and just realizing it's part of it. And

645
00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:53.559
<v Speaker 2>there's expectations out there, which is probably why you want

646
00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:56.440
<v Speaker 2>to do either coach or play at where you are,

647
00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:02.160
<v Speaker 2>Like you're thinking that fan being disappointed with bad results

648
00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:04.599
<v Speaker 2>is a factor in why you're unsuccessful.

649
00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:06.559
<v Speaker 3>Like it's it's never a good look.

650
00:31:06.599 --> 00:31:09.400
<v Speaker 2>And for Jerry Jones, you know it's not a I

651
00:31:09.440 --> 00:31:12.240
<v Speaker 2>mean again, talk about unrelatable. This guy's a billionaire and

652
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:15.400
<v Speaker 2>literally bought an NFL team and his playing NFL GM

653
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:19.440
<v Speaker 2>and has for a long time. But here's what his

654
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:24.160
<v Speaker 2>response was. This was, Uh, this was from let's see here,

655
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:29.039
<v Speaker 2>Let's see if I can find the Uh yeah, he's

656
00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:30.680
<v Speaker 2>he demands that threatening to fire?

657
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:33.000
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, this is this is what it says.

658
00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:35.319
<v Speaker 2>It says Jerry Jones defends threatening to fire radio hosts

659
00:31:35.319 --> 00:31:38.400
<v Speaker 2>by claiming they aren't real fans or football people, so

660
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:40.799
<v Speaker 2>they can't question him. That again, I haven't that that's

661
00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:43.440
<v Speaker 2>exactly what I I mean, without even knowing, that's exactly

662
00:31:43.480 --> 00:31:46.640
<v Speaker 2>what he said to defend himself. It confirms everything I

663
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:49.960
<v Speaker 2>just laid out. He's a you're not a football person either.

664
00:31:50.039 --> 00:31:52.160
<v Speaker 2>You just bought a team, dude, Like, what's your I mean?

665
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Like I think he did play football. I'm not saying

666
00:31:54.039 --> 00:31:57.839
<v Speaker 2>he knows nothing about football, but like nobody would hire

667
00:31:57.880 --> 00:32:00.279
<v Speaker 2>you to be a GM. You hired yourself is the

668
00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:02.519
<v Speaker 2>GM because you own the team and you have an

669
00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:04.920
<v Speaker 2>unlimited amount of money. Now again, you can't use that

670
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:07.000
<v Speaker 2>unlimited amount of money. There's a salary cab. But like

671
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:10.559
<v Speaker 2>he's in the belief that he's he's an accomplished and

672
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:13.839
<v Speaker 2>established GM when it's really not that way at all,

673
00:32:13.839 --> 00:32:16.799
<v Speaker 2>and nobody sees it that way. And then goes back

674
00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:19.960
<v Speaker 2>to like fans, those guys they may be Cowboys fans.

675
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:24.160
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they really are, but and I don't know their situation,

676
00:32:24.279 --> 00:32:26.200
<v Speaker 2>But like that, that's another thing that if you have

677
00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:31.000
<v Speaker 2>a platform, whether it be to write, to speak, podcast, radio, TV, whatever,

678
00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:34.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there are people that think if you're not

679
00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:37.640
<v Speaker 2>shaking the pom poms leading the pep rally, you're not

680
00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:38.200
<v Speaker 2>a real fan.

681
00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:41.200
<v Speaker 3>And that's that's I think that is kind of faded.

682
00:32:40.839 --> 00:32:43.079
<v Speaker 2>A little bit, just because I think people have collectively

683
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:45.240
<v Speaker 2>realized that you can be a fan and yet be

684
00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:48.160
<v Speaker 2>honest with other fans and honest with yourself. It's one

685
00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:51.799
<v Speaker 2>thing to be nasty and just be you know, the worst.

686
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:54.960
<v Speaker 2>But like he used to trigger me so much when

687
00:32:54.960 --> 00:32:57.599
<v Speaker 2>people would call in and and ask why I'm talking

688
00:32:57.599 --> 00:32:59.559
<v Speaker 2>about Louisville basketball. What do you think we're gonna do

689
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:02.079
<v Speaker 2>around here? It's Louisvil basketball. You think you think you know,

690
00:33:02.359 --> 00:33:03.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm going on of my way to bring up that

691
00:33:03.920 --> 00:33:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Louisville basketball was terrible under kiddie paying, Like it's it's

692
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:09.680
<v Speaker 2>it's part of the job. It's what I have to do. Well,

693
00:33:09.720 --> 00:33:13.359
<v Speaker 2>what's that helping? It's not my job to help at all, Like,

694
00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:15.400
<v Speaker 2>that's not what this is. That's not what I'm supposed

695
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:20.519
<v Speaker 2>to do. So again, it's looked bad for Jerry Jones here,

696
00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:23.039
<v Speaker 2>but he's been criticized for, you know, a long time

697
00:33:23.119 --> 00:33:26.319
<v Speaker 2>for making poor decisions as a GM and owner, and

698
00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure he won't change. But it was nice to

699
00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:31.200
<v Speaker 2>see a lot of people defending those two hosts, who,

700
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:35.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, they probably got tougher skin than I do.

701
00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:38.319
<v Speaker 2>They're probably a little more you know, secure about their

702
00:33:38.359 --> 00:33:40.680
<v Speaker 2>situation because they're hosting. I mean, they're they're they're they're

703
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:41.359
<v Speaker 2>successful in.

704
00:33:41.319 --> 00:33:41.680
<v Speaker 3>What they do.

705
00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:44.559
<v Speaker 2>But they also know, hey, yeah, if he really wanted to,

706
00:33:44.880 --> 00:33:45.640
<v Speaker 2>he could, he could.

707
00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:46.400
<v Speaker 3>He's Jerry Jones.

708
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:48.400
<v Speaker 2>He could make some calls and we could lose our job,

709
00:33:48.440 --> 00:33:49.880
<v Speaker 2>and they could blame it on anything else. But we

710
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:52.519
<v Speaker 2>would know that it's because we pissed off Jerry Jones.

711
00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:57.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's talk about it. Underdog Fantasy. They're somewhat

739
00:35:10.519 --> 00:35:12.880
<v Speaker 2>little bit of local flavor, Western Kentucky taking on sam

740
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:16.119
<v Speaker 2>Houston State. I'm not just you know, I do pull

741
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:19.519
<v Speaker 2>for WKU, not like a big fan or anything. But

742
00:35:19.599 --> 00:35:21.480
<v Speaker 2>if I if I'm asked, hey, would you want them

743
00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:23.199
<v Speaker 2>to win or lose? I would say win. But I

744
00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:24.679
<v Speaker 2>do like them at plus one and a half, I

745
00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:27.960
<v Speaker 2>know Sam Houston is a good team despite being relatively

746
00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:30.480
<v Speaker 2>new to the FBS. But I think I may put

747
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:32.559
<v Speaker 2>a little something, a little small play here on the

748
00:35:32.599 --> 00:35:35.920
<v Speaker 2>tops plus one and a half. Also FIU and UTEP

749
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:39.280
<v Speaker 2>that's a Conference USA matchup. No thoughts at all on that,

750
00:35:39.480 --> 00:35:42.400
<v Speaker 2>but that in fact I think both teams think didn't

751
00:35:42.440 --> 00:35:44.199
<v Speaker 2>didn't Indian open up against.

752
00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:47.000
<v Speaker 3>FIU, he did beat them by thirty billion.

753
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so we'll get more into some of the other

754
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:54.760
<v Speaker 2>games that we've got, not only Saturday, but there's a

755
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:56.760
<v Speaker 2>decent amount of games on Thursday.

756
00:35:56.440 --> 00:35:58.679
<v Speaker 3>And Friday too, So looking forward to that also.

757
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Real quick before we get out of here, one of mine,

758
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:03.400
<v Speaker 2>you once again about my friends over at Jefferson Animal Hospital.

759
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:07.239
<v Speaker 2>Their pet blood bank event is coming up on Saturday.

760
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Pines for pausing people. You can get all the info

761
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:11.960
<v Speaker 2>at pet bloodbank dot com. Give them a call at

762
00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:14.239
<v Speaker 2>five two nine hundred pets. What they're doing here is

763
00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:17.360
<v Speaker 2>they're having a very you know, it's for a good cause,

764
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:19.320
<v Speaker 2>but it's also going to be an educational thing for

765
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:22.440
<v Speaker 2>a lot of folks to learn and see how your

766
00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:24.480
<v Speaker 2>pets can donate blood. I think you now know, at

767
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:26.679
<v Speaker 2>least if you didn't before, now you do because we're

768
00:36:26.719 --> 00:36:28.519
<v Speaker 2>talking about it. But each time there is a pet

769
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:30.880
<v Speaker 2>blood donation, you can save up to four to six lives,

770
00:36:30.920 --> 00:36:33.440
<v Speaker 2>so it's very important. But they understand, meaning those a

771
00:36:33.519 --> 00:36:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Jefferson Animal Hospital, that it may not be something you're

772
00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:37.880
<v Speaker 2>comfortable with just yet. But that's why they want you

773
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:39.920
<v Speaker 2>to come out on Saturday, so you can learn all

774
00:36:39.920 --> 00:36:43.079
<v Speaker 2>about it and see how important it is for pets

775
00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:44.920
<v Speaker 2>to donate blood just like we do. So again, Pines

776
