00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,639

of fun breaking down an l s U win.

42
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,479
Speaker 6: But you're right, Tigers probably need a little bit of

43
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:26,960
extra rest.

44
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:28,439
Speaker 4: Jordan is in today.

45
00:02:28,479 --> 00:02:31,960

and he better not fail.

47
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,039
Speaker 3: Hey, Jake, I was thinking about you last night.

48
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 4: I feel like you're gonna be ready. I got faith

49
00:02:40,599 --> 00:02:40,879
in you.

50
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 3: I'm ready.

51
00:02:41,479 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 4: I got faith in.

52
00:02:42,159 --> 00:02:43,159
Speaker 3: I made this last night.

53
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 4: Okay, let's go.

54
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,879
Speaker 5: Prior preparation prevents poor performance. We love to see it, George.

55
00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:50,840
You feel good today?

56
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:51,159
Speaker 7: Oh?

57
00:02:51,319 --> 00:02:51,879
Speaker 3: Feeling great?

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,599
Speaker 4: Hell yeah? I love the energy like that. I like

59
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:55,360
that hat too.

60
00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:58,719
Speaker 5: That's that is a Saints hat that I've never seen before.

61
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,439
Speaker 3: Well, it's the ones they wore this year with the

62
00:03:00,479 --> 00:03:02,199
crucial cats, like on the sidelines.

63
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,479
Speaker 4: Oh God, I don't know. I didn't notice that dayDay.

64
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:10,560
What's up, dude, man, we're doing good today.

65
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,599
Speaker 1: Uh, a little bit of a later night, but uh,

66
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,080
Saltball ultimately got the run rules. We got to get

67
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,840
out of there a little bit early. If you want

68
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,560
to know why the TV behind Jake and T Bob

69
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,800
is black, Uh, it went out last night.

70
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,719
Speaker 4: It just doesn't work. So that's kind of what we're

71
00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:26,159
dealing with.

72
00:03:26,439 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 5: Introp is a hell of a thing, right. Everything in

73
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,919
the universe is slowly degrading and falling apart and eventually

74
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,159
result in the heat death of the universe and nothing

75
00:03:37,159 --> 00:03:42,759
will exist. I find there's few greater indicators of the

76
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:50,080
process of interpete as uh, just having multiple little kids

77
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,360
and watching what happens to your home after you do

78
00:03:53,599 --> 00:03:57,599
a deep clean, and watching it slowly degrade and stuff not.

79
00:03:57,599 --> 00:03:59,719
Speaker 4: Get put away. It just just just.

80
00:03:59,719 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 5: Get just more and more, and then you and then

81
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,680
you have to do it all again.

82
00:04:05,719 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 4: Well that's okay, wells Tony will be fine.

83
00:04:08,919 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: You just you gotta watch your laptop screen extra close today, yeah,

84
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,199
because you can't you can see the reflection.

85
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 5: But also you can see the reflection on the stream there.

86
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 4: That's good. Just just be careful.

87
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 5: I'm not generally a thirsty searcher anyway, So we're fine.

88
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 4: I'm really not. I'm really not.

89
00:04:25,639 --> 00:04:27,319
Speaker 5: I see you give me that look jake out the corner,

90
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,199
and I'm really not.

91
00:04:28,399 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 4: I promise, I promise. I'm not saying you're searching for it.

92
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,519
But it's still keep up this.

93
00:04:33,519 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 5: Algorithm generally, though, I don't.

94
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 4: I don't.

95
00:04:37,759 --> 00:04:40,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I don't know. I don't you hear it,

96
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,079
I really don't. I mean, try to find me a

97
00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:48,279
horny follow my entire Instagram. Actually sat there for hours,

98
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,800
or not for hours. I sat there for about probably

99
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,600
like thirty minutes a couple of months ago, and comb

100
00:04:55,639 --> 00:05:03,120
to everybody that I follow and unfollowed any any thirsty

101
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,319
ones that I had, maybe in a moment of weakness,

102
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,040
decided to click that button.

103
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,759
Speaker 6: I had to prove it, strand it in the desert,

104
00:05:09,879 --> 00:05:11,120
and you just needed a sip.

105
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,639
Speaker 5: I had to prune it like you prune your garden,

106
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,319
and I'm better for it.

107
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,959
Speaker 4: Better for it now. Twitter's a bit of it.

108
00:05:18,959 --> 00:05:21,439
Speaker 5: It's kind of like a wild West, you know, that's

109
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:22,000
a little bit.

110
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 4: That's a little bit different. Who cares? All right?

111
00:05:26,199 --> 00:05:30,199
Speaker 5: So real quick, because okay, here's where it gets a

112
00:05:30,199 --> 00:05:32,839
bit odd, is uh. I know we're a local show

113
00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:36,360
and we're going to talk about local sports, and due

114
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,720
to our enslavement to the algorithmic gods that rule you Tube,

115
00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:43,680
we will reach to talk about the Saints topics and

116
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:50,439
LSU topics today. But I'm sorry, there's nothing more interesting

117
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,560
on the planet than the drama that played out with

118
00:05:53,639 --> 00:05:55,959
Luka Doncic last night.

119
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 4: It is something that is so rare.

120
00:06:01,439 --> 00:06:04,319
Speaker 5: This entire ordeal from the trade day to now is

121
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,040
so rare and so insane that I don't care that

122
00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:10,120
we're a baton reason more to it, Like we're going

123
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,839
I have to talk about it right now. First off,

124
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,279
I don't know We didn't talk about this yesterday, but

125
00:06:17,519 --> 00:06:19,519
did y'all see what like the Mavericks are you know,

126
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,639
planning to do for Luka Jake. They put t shirts

127
00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:25,839
on the seats and said thank you for everything in Slavinian.

128
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,079
Speaker 4: They a tribute video ready to go.

129
00:06:28,759 --> 00:06:34,079
Speaker 5: When I learned about that, I found I got angry,

130
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,519
Like you don't get to have your cake and eat

131
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,199
it too, Mavericks. Yeah, you can't deny this man the

132
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,079
Supermax rip him out of his home, out of nowhere

133
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,079
on the way out, tell everybody it's because he's fat

134
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,720
and lazy and not dedicated, and then turn around six

135
00:06:52,759 --> 00:06:55,519
weeks later and be like oh thank you, oh thank you,

136
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,519
Like like he didn't leave for age, he didn't retire.

137
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,360
You kicked him out and talked crap about him on

138
00:07:01,399 --> 00:07:06,759
the way out. Yeah, it's so disingenuous. And and that's

139
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,759
the thing is a kid, you hear your favorite athlete

140
00:07:08,759 --> 00:07:09,639
getting traded or whatever.

141
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 4: Not your favorite.

142
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,279
Speaker 5: You just hear about Athene getting traded and Jay. You

143
00:07:12,279 --> 00:07:14,319
can speak to those better better than we can. But

144
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,959
it's like as a kid, you're like, okay, yeah, whatever,

145
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,720
you know, he's on new team cool. As an adult

146
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,639
you appreciate everything that comes along with that. I mean, no,

147
00:07:22,759 --> 00:07:26,560
it's it's it's moving. It's a completely new set of friends,

148
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:34,519
completely new social scene, routine, geography, culture, everything. And for

149
00:07:34,639 --> 00:07:37,920
Luca it was probably especially shocking given that he grew

150
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,639
up in Dallas. He arrived there a kid and there

151
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,399
became a man and had no desire to leave, and

152
00:07:46,519 --> 00:07:49,560
Nico Harrison ripped him away, called him fat on the

153
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,319
way out, and then tried to be all Levy Devey

154
00:07:52,759 --> 00:07:53,360
last night.

155
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:54,519
Speaker 6: Af that.

156
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 5: Did y'all see Luca Crin during the tribute video?

157
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 3: Of course?

158
00:07:58,839 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 4: Yeah? Bro, there is.

159
00:08:02,279 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 5: Nico Harrison. Shouldn't just be fired, he should be tarred

160
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,839
and feathered, like we need to go full Enlightenment era

161
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,519
here and shame him. He needs to be Game of

162
00:08:12,639 --> 00:08:15,920
Thrones walk through the streets of Dallas and shamed.

163
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 4: Yes, I would. I don't know how I.

164
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 5: Would recover if I was a Mavericks fan.

165
00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 4: Did you see him after the game?

166
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: I saw him being very that that arena was full

167
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,040
the entire time they stopped, they took pictures with him,

168
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,519
He shook hands with people. I mean they were cheering

169
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,759
Luka Dancic for dropping forty five on their team as

170
00:08:33,759 --> 00:08:34,919
he was walking out of the arena.

171
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 5: How I mean that would break me as a fan?

172
00:08:39,159 --> 00:08:41,600
Oh yeah, legitimately I would never be a fan of

173
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,759
the like I don't. It's man, it's it's mind boggling.

174
00:08:45,879 --> 00:08:49,039
Speaker 6: It's trading your superstar in the height of his career

175
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,879
for really no reason and for nothing in return street clothes.

176
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,360
I mean, he'd be like trading Drew Brees for Derek

177
00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:07,200
Carr whoa I mean sinister right in like twenty sixteen, Yeah,

178
00:09:07,759 --> 00:09:08,399
in his prime.

179
00:09:09,759 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 5: It's it's unfathomable as a fan.

180
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 4: It reminds you of how.

181
00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 5: Agent what's the word powerless? How you have no agency

182
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:25,919
at all?

183
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 3: No?

184
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 5: Right, I mean you deeply love this thing, and yet

185
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:34,039
your fate is just tied to the whims of a

186
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,879
few rich a holes just because old Patrick Dumont and

187
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,879
Nico Harrison wanted to trade Luca. Your fandom is rude,

188
00:09:42,919 --> 00:09:44,279
the team you love is no more.

189
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 6: And what you're talking about earlier about like kind of

190
00:09:47,879 --> 00:09:51,039
being blindsided by it now. I mean Luca is completely

191
00:09:51,039 --> 00:09:53,559
different level than I ever thought about being obviously, but

192
00:09:54,519 --> 00:09:56,919
it is. It's very difficult when you have a family

193
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,840
and I remember when I got released by San Diego.

194
00:10:00,399 --> 00:10:02,639
Speaker 4: You know, no idea was it was good, No idea

195
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,279
it was coming. No. I mean I was a captain

196
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,879
the year before, I was a Pro Bowl alternate.

197
00:10:07,919 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 6: Like I felt good about signing back with them, and

198
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,960
it was like the eleventh hour, like two hours had

199
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,200
passed since the cuts were made, you know, you think

200
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:16,559
you're good.

201
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,799
Speaker 4: I was about to go to Sea World in San Diego.

202
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 6: I remember exactly where I was, and then I got

203
00:10:22,279 --> 00:10:24,320
the call, Hey, bring your iPad.

204
00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:25,759
Speaker 4: NORF wants to see you. And I'm like, well, I

205
00:10:25,799 --> 00:10:26,799
knew immediately then.

206
00:10:26,879 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 6: But it's like, we've got this house we've now got

207
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,080
got to move on from, and you've got your you

208
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,759
know everything, school and your church you're going to and

209
00:10:35,799 --> 00:10:37,639
your friends set up because it's been five years.

210
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, you established yourself.

211
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you've got great friends, and it's just all

212
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,279
of a sudden that's taken away from you. It's like

213
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:48,759
from where you were established and everything you had going

214
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:49,759
for you in your life.

215
00:10:50,039 --> 00:10:51,639
Speaker 4: It's like, hey, you know, you.

216
00:10:51,879 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 6: Got a couple of weeks and you're probably gonna be

217
00:10:53,759 --> 00:10:55,799
going to another team and you're gonna be moving across

218
00:10:55,799 --> 00:10:59,120
the country and moving on and probably those people that

219
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,240
have been in your life were five years you probably

220
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:02,279
I gotta see them anymore.

221
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 4: No, that's just the way life is. It's a that's

222
00:11:05,279 --> 00:11:05,879
just how it is.

223
00:11:05,919 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 5: Everybody's a lot of times as adults, you're friends with

224
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,159
the people that you're friends with, and it doesn't mean

225
00:11:11,159 --> 00:11:13,480
that you're not like real friends and you know, love

226
00:11:13,519 --> 00:11:19,159
each other. But it's because your schedule allows y'all to be.

227
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,279
As awful as that sounds, that's just kind of the

228
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,480
reality of this situation.

229
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 3: Like, Yeah, the craziest part of me though, was like

230
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:30,559
I watch a lot of Luca games the whole time.

231
00:11:30,639 --> 00:11:32,879
Last night when he's usually frying a cooking the team,

232
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:36,159
he's talking crazy, he's yelling at the rest, he's doing this,

233
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,240
pointing at the crowd. He didn't do none of that

234
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,440
last night. Like it was kind of he was sad

235
00:11:40,519 --> 00:11:44,080
giving him a forty part, Like that was the saddest

236
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,639
forty it is.

237
00:11:45,759 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 5: It is literally like Shakespearean. Yeah, it's like he had

238
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,679
to kill his old he had to kill his family

239
00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:57,679
for some sort of greater good or something, and and

240
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,720
and you could see him, uh kind of yes, mournfully,

241
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:03,120
mournfully doing.

242
00:12:02,919 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 3: So Lucas cooking you. He's over there like, oh, you

243
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,440
can't guard me all that. I didn't do none of

244
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:09,000
that last night.

245
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: No, no, he said in the postgame interview, he was like,

246
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,720
when they played the tribute video, I didn't think I

247
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:14,879
was gonna be able to play this game.

248
00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:16,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I mean.

249
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 4: It just wasn't. And here's the other thing. That's how

250
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:19,480
good he is.

251
00:12:19,519 --> 00:12:21,919
Speaker 1: He won't even inspired and just dropped forty five.

252
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 5: If I'm a fan, that tribute video would make me

253
00:12:27,879 --> 00:12:33,159
want to physically riot. All you're doing is reminding me

254
00:12:33,399 --> 00:12:39,240
of how astronomically asinine your decision was. All you're doing

255
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,159
is reminding me of how incredible he was. That we

256
00:12:42,399 --> 00:12:45,720
just played for an NBA Finals and you decided to trade.

257
00:12:45,519 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 4: It for nothing. Idiot there? And how about this?

258
00:12:50,799 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 5: So there's an article in ESPN yesterday that dove into

259
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,960
a few topics about the return, like you know, did

260
00:12:59,039 --> 00:13:01,320
the Mavericks tried to lie up all kind of sponsors

261
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,879
for the night to make some money and Luca was like,

262
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,679
uh nah.

263
00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, no.

264
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 5: You're not you know business that used to work with Lucay.

265
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,159
He's no, no, you're not using my name at all.

266
00:13:11,639 --> 00:13:16,960
And then somebody did. Basically, like financial analysis, the Mavericks

267
00:13:17,039 --> 00:13:20,720
are expected to lose dozens of millions of dollars this

268
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:27,399
year alone in revenue, getting up to nine figures long term.

269
00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:31,919
And it's funny because I'm saying they didn't want to

270
00:13:31,919 --> 00:13:33,879
pay the Supermax. Okay, you don't want to pay the money, Well,

271
00:13:33,879 --> 00:13:36,440
you're losing money. You might end up losing three hundred

272
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,320
million dollars. At least if you had paid Luca, you

273
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,600
would have gotten return. And it's the rare move. We

274
00:13:44,639 --> 00:13:49,399
talked about this a lot when you talk about things

275
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,360
that kind of like a bit of corporate greed because

276
00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:56,240
you don't want to spend the money, right, Like, uh,

277
00:13:56,399 --> 00:13:59,759
let's say most of the times when corporations make it

278
00:13:59,799 --> 00:14:04,120
to vision like that, there's at least a short term

279
00:14:05,039 --> 00:14:08,799
fiscal benefit, but some long term damage that I think

280
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,639
eventually drives customers away. Right Like, if you're a big company,

281
00:14:11,919 --> 00:14:15,440
you cut customer service, Okay, that's off the payroll. So

282
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,759
profits increase in the short term, shares go up, dividends increase,

283
00:14:18,919 --> 00:14:22,519
but long term, the customer experience is worse, and they

284
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,240
might walk away because they're like, well, the customer service

285
00:14:25,279 --> 00:14:27,039
has gone I can't get anything fixed, blah blah whatever,

286
00:14:27,159 --> 00:14:31,919
Oakland Athletics, this is the rare case where you made

287
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,440
a decision that both lost you millions of dollars in

288
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:42,240
the short term and shattered your long term brand identity.

289
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,519
I mean, it is the most astronomically bad decision I

290
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:51,279
have seen as an adult covering sports. Is there is

291
00:14:51,279 --> 00:14:52,960
there is that an exaggeration?

292
00:14:53,679 --> 00:14:55,919
Speaker 6: No, I don't think so, because you're talking about one

293
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,559
of the five I mean, no matter who you ask,

294
00:14:58,639 --> 00:15:01,799
five best players that think overall in the NBA, and

295
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:08,399
you traded him for an aging, always oft injured star

296
00:15:08,679 --> 00:15:12,600
in Anthony Davis Christy, who's like how many minutes did

297
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,399
he play? You know last night he played twenty eight,

298
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,320
but he came off the bench only scored eleven points.

299
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,080
So combine the two guys you traded him for scored

300
00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:23,159
twenty four points, and so you got nothing in return

301
00:15:23,559 --> 00:15:26,519
for this superstar. And Dallas is like a market where

302
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,799
like Luca would have been loved forever forever, like he

303
00:15:29,799 --> 00:15:31,679
would have just they would have always shown up, that

304
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,960
would have always been in the building, and you traded

305
00:15:34,039 --> 00:15:36,360
him for like nobody's coming to see Anthony Davis.

306
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 4: No, not one person in Dallas.

307
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 6: Like, oh, you're going to watch ad tonight, not one

308
00:15:39,879 --> 00:15:42,720
person because he's not gonna play well. Even if he does,

309
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,120
you're right fifty chance. So like, it's a head scratcher

310
00:15:46,159 --> 00:15:49,240
on every single level. Nothing about it makes sense. There's

311
00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:52,360
not literally, yeah, there's not one thing you can circle

312
00:15:52,399 --> 00:15:54,559
in the pros and cons. It's a pro for the

313
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,879
Mavericks making this move, and I can't think of another

314
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,159
trade his diet that as soon as it happened, Like,

315
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,799
as soon as it happened, you couldn't like at least

316
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,159
just like circle one pro or okay, it helps you here,

317
00:16:06,679 --> 00:16:08,960
there's not one. There's never been one, and there's not

318
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:09,639
going to be one.

319
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 5: It's even so insane that Nico Harrison was so proud

320
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:21,360
of himself for keeping it so quiet. But the problem

321
00:16:21,399 --> 00:16:23,879
there because you know, obviously right like he didn't want

322
00:16:23,919 --> 00:16:27,120
it to start to leak and and all the drama

323
00:16:27,159 --> 00:16:31,679
woulded too. The problem there is, well, first, if you

324
00:16:31,879 --> 00:16:35,159
chopped him on an open market and said reaction be damn,

325
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,720
you could have maximized what you got. Yeah, But secondly

326
00:16:39,919 --> 00:16:43,000
you could have at least gotten an idea like it

327
00:16:43,039 --> 00:16:46,559
would have maybe the fan reaction would have slapped you awake?

328
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:48,039
Speaker 4: Like, was Nico.

329
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 5: Harrison so far up his own ass he couldn't see

330
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:50,879
the sun?

331
00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 3: Yeah?

332
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 5: Like he completely got blinded by his own ass.

333
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,159
Speaker 3: He's one of those guys that they buried. Absolutely, he's

334
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:00,519
that guy.

335
00:17:01,759 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 4: Trade what he initiated the trade? No, I know it's in.

336
00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:05,839
Say it's in.

337
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:10,839
Speaker 3: Say hey you want Luca Dodget You serious? Yeah? For who?

338
00:17:11,039 --> 00:17:15,440
I'm not trading Lebron Anthony Davis hungko real quick? He

339
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:16,240
wants to trade.

340
00:17:16,319 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 5: I mean, I cannot fathom what went through Rob Palinka's head.

341
00:17:21,519 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 3: I promise he jumped out of seat, like.

342
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,079
Speaker 4: Is it like the calendar? Did he have to pinch

343
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,440
himself and be like, am I am? I? Am? I awake?

344
00:17:29,839 --> 00:17:34,480
Is this is this real life? What? And look what's happened? Okay?

345
00:17:34,519 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 5: And in case you think this is all just you know,

346
00:17:36,599 --> 00:17:41,960
uh whatever. Since that moment, the Lakers are now well,

347
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,519
it was eleven and two, they're now twelve. When it began,

348
00:17:44,599 --> 00:17:47,359
the Lakers are only three games up on the maps.

349
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 4: Now the Lakers are twelve and two.

350
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 5: Since the maps are seven fourteen, the Lakers are battling

351
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,599
for the three seed and the Lakers are now eleven

352
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:02,079
games up on the MAVs. On real, Patrick Dumont, you better.

353
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,160
I hope you get that casino in that new stadium

354
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,480
you're planning, because it's all you give a damn about anyway,

355
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,960
dirt Nowitzki said when the trade was announced, he was

356
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,559
on a family vacation in the Maldis.

357
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 4: It was the last day of the vak.

358
00:18:17,039 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 5: They had a big family lunch planned and he was

359
00:18:19,839 --> 00:18:23,400
so shocked that he skipped the family lunch to stay

360
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,480
in his hotel room and figure out.

361
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:26,319
Speaker 4: If the trade was real.

362
00:18:26,559 --> 00:18:29,839
Speaker 6: Yeah, and just processing that's the biggest legend in your

363
00:18:29,839 --> 00:18:30,759
franchise history.

364
00:18:31,559 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 5: Like I don't like the Lake, I don't like the

365
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,160
maver I don't care about any of these teams. But

366
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,559
it's a situation so absurd that I do have real

367
00:18:41,799 --> 00:18:45,160
empathy for Mavericks fans, Like I am mad on Mavericks

368
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,400
fans behalf well.

369
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,319
Speaker 3: I hate the Lakers, and I think it's crazy, like

370
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,319
the Lakers get billed out now.

371
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 5: And that's the other part. If you do at the

372
00:18:52,279 --> 00:18:54,319
Lakers like we all do. You just offered him a

373
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,160
golden parish. Now they get to go from Lebron to Luca.

374
00:18:58,079 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 3: Why every time?

375
00:18:59,279 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 4: Why they get it?

376
00:19:00,079 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 3: They get a superstar that falls in her lap every time.

377
00:19:02,839 --> 00:19:06,079
I swear the NBA colludes to get the Lakers to

378
00:19:06,079 --> 00:19:07,759
be like contenders. I mean, they start to be a

379
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:10,279
falling star. Somehow they get a blessing out the sky

380
00:19:10,319 --> 00:19:11,359
to get Lebron jeans.

381
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,559
Speaker 5: It's like, well, I mean look back to even Shack, right,

382
00:19:13,599 --> 00:19:16,160
the magic shit there developed Shack forever. Okay, well, now

383
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:17,759
he's a lost Ange, just like you can go back

384
00:19:17,839 --> 00:19:19,079
well Anthony Davis North.

385
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,519
Speaker 4: Okay, well now he's a lost ange. Draft Night, you

386
00:19:21,519 --> 00:19:23,240
trade Vlotti Diva for Kobe.

387
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 3: Kobe Bryant for Kobe Bryant the Pelican's draft.

388
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 4: I don't think I was aware of that.

389
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 6: Actually, yeah, Bloody Diva was drafted by this then Charlotte Hornets,

390
00:19:34,519 --> 00:19:36,720
and they traded him on Draft Knight for Kobe.

391
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,039
Speaker 4: What did They're not?

392
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,319
Speaker 5: And it's not like Los Angeles are good people, can't

393
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,440
be karma, They're awful people exactly.

394
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're elitist.

395
00:19:48,079 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 3: Evil empire. That's the real evil empire.

396
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 4: God, I don't know your decisions sometimes.

397
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,039
Speaker 5: Look, I know it's mysterious to us here on earth.

398
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,799
I don't know but like, the only way I can

399
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,440
imagine that this trade went down is because Nico Harrison

400
00:20:01,559 --> 00:20:02,240
was possessed.

401
00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was.

402
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 5: By the devil or what, but there had to be

403
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,559
some sort of possession in play, some substance.

404
00:20:09,079 --> 00:20:10,839
Speaker 4: To make him think this was a good idea.

405
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 5: Unreal, Matthew says, isn't the room that the new owners

406
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,880
of the MAVs are tidy? Casino has been pushing Dallas

407
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,960
and Texas legislature to allow gamble because they didn't get.

408
00:20:23,839 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 4: Done for another year.

409
00:20:25,319 --> 00:20:29,319
Speaker 5: Yes, they desperately want to build a new stadium with

410
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,160
a casino attached. That is the That is what Dumont

411
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,119
and all of them are are into.

412
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, you cannot gamble in the state of Texas. The

413
00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:41,039
only thing you can do, I believe, is daily fantasy.

414
00:20:41,599 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 4: That's it. No gambling.

415
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 6: So a lot of people that I was talking with

416
00:20:45,799 --> 00:20:47,200
that are covering the Final.

417
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 4: Four like, you can't. You can't gamble in Texas.

418
00:20:50,759 --> 00:20:54,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, Daniel, basta.

419
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,079
Speaker 4: This is a classic case of that.

420
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 5: Eric Andre mean where he shoots Hannibal and he's like,

421
00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,119
who could have done this?

422

Speaker 4: Yeah, now's the time.

539
00:27:07,039 --> 00:27:16,839
Speaker 5: Geezt oh man, uh Jake, Yeah, are you excited to

540
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:25,000
talk about some potential new Orleans Saints draft picks. Hell yeah,

541
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:30,359
let's go baby, uh Saints hosting. Hold on, hold on,

542
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:31,920
we should get the show started. We should get the

543
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,400
show started. Great job, Jordan.

544
00:27:34,079 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 2: It's time to get to work courtesy of Tiger Labor

545
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,119
and Staffing where they can help take care of screening, training,

546
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:41,240
payroll and more.

547
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 5: Now for starters, Tiger Labor and Stephen your local staffing experts, guys.

548
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 4: Remember Tiger Labor and Staffing.

549
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 5: One of the ways is that they ensure that they

550
00:27:52,279 --> 00:27:56,720
find quality employees for your needs. Is they don't just

551
00:27:57,079 --> 00:27:58,359
look at the paper resumes.

552
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 4: Ok, would Ford you No?

553
00:27:59,759 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 5: No, They're up there. They have an in person onboarding process.

554
00:28:03,559 --> 00:28:08,599
They interview the potential employees every morning over a cup

555
00:28:08,599 --> 00:28:12,599
of coffees starting at five am. So you again, you

556
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,799
are getting It's a great vetting process that ensures that

557
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,279
you get the perfect employee, whether it's short term or

558
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,759
long term, to fit your business needs. Go to Tiger

559
00:28:22,799 --> 00:28:26,720
Labor and Staffing for all your staffing needs. So the

560
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,920
New Orleans Saints are expected to host now. And this

561
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,839
is kind of it. I know I approach this a

562
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,119
little bit tongue in cheek, but it is a bit

563
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,559
because I feel like we're like a groundhog Day pattern

564
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,680
right now with Saints and LSU football, because it's just

565
00:28:43,799 --> 00:28:48,480
kind of the same conversations viewed from different angles. It's like,

566
00:28:49,759 --> 00:28:54,880
you know, they're just prospective shifts essentially. But the name

567
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,480
we're about to talk about, I had no idea who

568
00:28:57,519 --> 00:29:01,440
this guy was. Hand to god, he's kind of intriguing,

569
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:07,119
and that is Arkansas wide receiver Isaac Tesla. The Saints

570
00:29:07,119 --> 00:29:10,039
are expected to host him on a visit, and we

571
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,799
talked a lot in this pre draft process about the

572
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,160
need for a big body receiver. Right, you got ya Lave,

573
00:29:17,359 --> 00:29:21,640
you got Shaheed, Like you got the small guys, you

574
00:29:21,759 --> 00:29:26,319
lose MBS. We need a big guy. Well, Isaac Tesla

575
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:32,319
is not just big, but he is an athletic freak.

576
00:29:33,119 --> 00:29:37,319
He's six four two fourteen and he ran a four

577
00:29:37,519 --> 00:29:41,680
four three forty avert of thirty nine and a half

578
00:29:41,759 --> 00:29:46,279
inches broad jump ten nine shuttle four oh five three

579
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,880
cones six eighty five, hell even bitch two twenty five

580
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,880
seventeen times and Jake, wait till you get a load

581
00:29:53,920 --> 00:30:00,240
of this. A relative athletic score ras the Saint's favorite metch.

582
00:30:00,839 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 4: Of nine to nine to three. So I don't know, Jake,

583
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,440
You probably know not.

584
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 5: Probably you know way more about the draft than I do.

585
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,799
Do you have any idea where Tesla's kind of being mocked,

586
00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:13,920
Like what pick would this be for the North? He

587
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,160
had a five hundred yards for Arkansas last year as

588
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,720
their second leading receiver, and he's one of.

589
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,759
Speaker 6: Those guys that's going to go anywhere between the fourth

590
00:30:20,799 --> 00:30:21,519
and the sixth round.

591
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 5: Oh okay, I kind of love that as a value

592
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,119
play and.

593
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,599
Speaker 6: More closer to the sixth round than the fourth round,

594
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,440
if that makes sense. And I think it's because of

595
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,720
what you just laid out as far as how athletic

596
00:30:32,759 --> 00:30:34,680
he is. And look, he had over five hundred yards

597
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,839
in the SEC. He transferred to Arkansas from Hillsdale College,

598
00:30:38,839 --> 00:30:42,240
which is Division two, right, So he's not somebody that

599
00:30:42,319 --> 00:30:44,319
was identified at a high school. So a little bit

600
00:30:44,319 --> 00:30:47,200
of a late bloomer or just somebody missed on him,

601
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,359
because he's got all the measurables and he certainly has

602
00:30:49,559 --> 00:30:51,359
the athletic ability to be able to go out there

603
00:30:51,359 --> 00:30:54,640
and be successful. He's got returnability as well, and so

604
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,079
that's something the Saints, you know, could use because you

605
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,319
have a Rashid Shahad, who probably doesn't need to do

606
00:30:59,359 --> 00:31:01,079
that anymore, even though he's really.

607
00:31:00,839 --> 00:31:03,039
Speaker 4: Good at it. You got to keep that guy healthy.

608
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,799
You need him as your number two receiver.

609
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 6: This is also somebody that was really good down in

610
00:31:09,079 --> 00:31:10,400
Mobile at the Senior Bowl.

611
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 4: He was turning him really Yeah. I mean I understand

612
00:31:16,519 --> 00:31:18,799
every reason why he would be on a visit. I mean,

613
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,240
you take a shot on this guy.

614
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,799
Speaker 5: You're telling me six round pick with those numbers, that's insane.

615
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, and again, like everything that you need at that position,

616
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,599
like he fits, like you're looking for somebody that's not

617
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,920
the five eleven one nine five or the six foot

618
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,359
two hundred pound receiver, Like you're looking for somebody six

619
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,160
four two fifteen mm.

620
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,079
Speaker 4: So he's coming on a visit.

621
00:31:41,599 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 5: Georgia edge rusher Michel Williams just had a visit with

622
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,680
the Saint Saints. It also met with him when they

623
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,599
hosted That didn't for all the Georgia players. So they've

624
00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:53,640
done their homework on Mkel and I know that if

625
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,279
the Saints were to draft him, it would trigger a

626
00:31:56,279 --> 00:31:59,559
lot of people because he's kind of a potential type

627
00:31:59,559 --> 00:32:00,119
of guy.

628
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:01,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got freakish numbers.

629
00:32:01,519 --> 00:32:03,559
Speaker 5: Freakish size, but he's a pass rusher that has not

630
00:32:03,599 --> 00:32:06,359
met his ceiling at all. But I also want to

631
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,079
hesitate Jake like he is a potential guy, but he's

632
00:32:10,119 --> 00:32:12,119
not Marcus Davenport and Peyton Turner.

633
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 4: No.

634
00:32:13,279 --> 00:32:16,119
Speaker 5: I mean, he has fourteen career sacks. He did in

635
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,960
the SEC. He started on a he was a key

636
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,720
piece and started on a Kirby Smart Georgia defense for

637
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:27,079
multiple years. Like this is not I know, with the

638
00:32:27,119 --> 00:32:29,680
same sort of draft him, and I understand it cynically,

639
00:32:29,759 --> 00:32:32,039
people would probably be up in arms, and I'm not

640
00:32:32,079 --> 00:32:34,279
saying that I wouldn't be a little like that's an

641
00:32:34,319 --> 00:32:38,480
exciting but I also don't want him painted like drafting

642
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,359
Marcus Davenport Peyton Turner because it's also definitely not that.

643
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 6: No, it's not that it's somebody that's done it at

644
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,440
the highest level in the Southeastern Conference. I think, no

645
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,559
matter who you ask, he is a surefire top ten

646
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,640
prospect you're coming up in this draft, and so you

647
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,920
wouldn't be reaching. Like when I think I think we

648
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,240
were together, I don't remember I was with someone when

649
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,720
the Saints selected Patrick Turner, and I just remember we

650
00:33:02,759 --> 00:33:03,319
all were like.

651
00:33:04,079 --> 00:33:05,839
Speaker 5: I think it was maybe at the said the Pelican

652
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,319
Son's game was that the draft?

653
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know. Were you at don

654
00:33:09,319 --> 00:33:11,720
Juan maybe or no? Yeah, yeah, okay, I don't think

655
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,920
I was there that night. It was Jimmy somebody and

656
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,839
we're looking at each other, like, what in the hell.

657
00:33:16,799 --> 00:33:18,759
Speaker 3: If you said Pelican soigns And it definitely was twenty

658
00:33:18,759 --> 00:33:19,519
twenty one draft.

659
00:33:19,599 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, yeah, funnily enough, Jake, you actually just called

660
00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:26,839
him Patrick Turner. I'm sure, I'm sure nobody batter than

661
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,359
I because who knows what his actual name is?

662
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,319
Speaker 4: He's given you no Remember.

663
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 6: I did this before because Peyton Turner is not as

664
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,240
good as Patrick Turner, the receiver was in the NFL. Yeah,

665
00:33:36,279 --> 00:33:39,720
you know, he at least played games, so Peyton Turner exactly.

666
00:33:39,759 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 5: But when they mean again, I'm just I'm not calling

667
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,359
you out. I'm trying to reinforce the point.

668
00:33:43,359 --> 00:33:43,799
Speaker 4: I don't care.

669
00:33:44,079 --> 00:33:44,119
Speaker 8: No.

670
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,279
Speaker 6: When they selected him, I was like, who's Peyton Turner?

671
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,079
And I feel like I know the draft pretty well? True,

672
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,240
and I was like, who who's this fella? But Ed

673
00:33:52,359 --> 00:33:55,079
Rusher like, we asked Nick this the other day and

674
00:33:55,119 --> 00:33:58,279
he he didn't really have an answer and not calling

675
00:33:58,359 --> 00:33:58,680
him out.

676
00:33:58,680 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 4: I just don't think it's it's clear.

677
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,759
Speaker 6: But if you asked me and maybe what you have

678
00:34:03,839 --> 00:34:05,880
to have, I do think ed Rusher is something that

679
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:07,200
you have to have, which.

680
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 4: Because you drafted Trey Eddridson.

681
00:34:11,599 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you just gave you just gave Chase Young

682
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,800
a lot of money.

683
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:22,199
Speaker 5: You drafted Trey HENDRICKSONID what the funny NFL sack leader,

684
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,559
and now you're out here shaking your hat for d Rushers.

685
00:34:26,039 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, Hendrickson replacements don't have a combined as totally as interesting.

686
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 5: It's insane crazy Tay t we gotta go to break.

687
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,800
But I saw you move your mic over? Did you

688
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,559
want to add something here? You need to stop talking

689
00:34:39,599 --> 00:34:41,760
about my new favorite Dallas Cowboys. What you need to

690
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:42,239
stop doing?

691
00:34:42,559 --> 00:34:46,559
Speaker 4: Mckel oh? Oh yeah, my bad, My bad, my bad.

692
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,400
Come on, man, this is where he turns his career.

693
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 5: You know, you maybe should be excited because the Saints

694
00:34:52,519 --> 00:34:54,400
have a little bit of Pelicans disease right now, where

695
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,280
anytime a guy leaves a flourish so like Peyton Turner

696
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:58,679
could actually flourish to.

697
00:34:58,639 --> 00:35:02,280
Speaker 1: Your point, like Arner Johnson all over.

698
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just like the Pelicans I'm seeing like Dyson

699
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:09,360
Daniels kick ass the Kale. Alexander Walker's out here taking assout.

700
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 4: Daniels is up for NBA Defensive Player of the Year.

701
00:35:14,519 --> 00:35:16,519

Welcome back brush ship That.

739
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 5: Feel says if Dyson stayed in New Orleans, he'd likely

740
00:37:06,559 --> 00:37:09,480
get hurt tying his shoes for the year.

741
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 4: True, Now it would be something more just obscure and random.

742
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,559
Speaker 6: He'd be having Beignet's and the sugar would get caught

743
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:24,440
on the bottom.

744
00:37:24,159 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 15: Of his shoes, and he a diabetic coma and then

745
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:33,960
never wakes up sugar. Are they calling him the great

746
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:34,800
Barrier Thief?

747
00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 3: Yes? He also just signed an exclusive shooto with Adidas.

748
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:43,199
He didn't have this type of motion on the.

749
00:37:43,199 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 4: Pelicant What a sick nickname? A sick name?

750
00:37:49,119 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 3: The most steals in the season in NBA history, Dyson

751
00:37:53,519 --> 00:37:55,840
Daniel shout out, I mean, man. He also said the

752
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,000
Pelicans were soft and cursed.

753
00:37:58,119 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 4: He did say they were soft, and they are soft.

754
00:38:00,199 --> 00:38:04,079
Speaker 3: He said that, Oh no way, what's the Pelican school?

755
00:38:04,119 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 12: Man?

756
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:05,119
Speaker 3: I cover everything.

757
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:06,079
Speaker 4: I know. I'm sorry.

758
00:38:06,199 --> 00:38:08,280
Speaker 5: I look, I too have been. I've been talking about

759
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,840
the Mavericks having their fandom broken. My Pelicans fan has

760
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,840
been broken. I've been checked out. Yeah, Ford almost two

761
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,599
years now, almost two seasons.

762
00:38:16,599 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 4: It's very sad.

763
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,679
Speaker 3: And headlines again for not basketball reasons.

764
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,079
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not gonna blame this one on him, but yeah,

765
00:38:26,079 --> 00:38:27,719
I mean, this is just a crazy stalker.

766
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,559
Speaker 3: But I will.

767
00:38:28,679 --> 00:38:34,280
Speaker 5: But yeah, but that's because you're still checked in and

768
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,559
all you're dealing with like you're just surrounded by negativity.

769
00:38:38,119 --> 00:38:41,440
I'm like, there there is not even a ray of sunshine.

770
00:38:41,599 --> 00:38:44,679
That's where the Pelicans need to hire Michael Malone. Do

771
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,039
you think he would come here because he's obviously going

772
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:48,800
to be a hot candidate. Anybody who needs a coach

773
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,360
who's gonna want Michael Malone.

774
00:38:50,039 --> 00:38:52,119
Speaker 4: Depends on what else comes with I don't know. Okay,

775
00:38:52,159 --> 00:38:53,920
so let's play this game again, though.

776
00:38:54,280 --> 00:39:00,679
Speaker 5: Let's play it because if healthy, the biggest if history.

777
00:39:01,599 --> 00:39:05,360
The Pelicans should have a pretty attractive starting five and

778
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:05,880
they're young.

779
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then de Jontay Murray.

780
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 3: But the problem, though, is Desante's not back till twenty

781
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,599
twenty six. Trey Murphy just has surgery last month for

782
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:15,119
torn What.

783
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 5: Do you mean he's not gonna be back at the

784
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,360
start of this next season. He got hurt in the

785
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:19,039
first game.

786
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no.

787
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 4: Hurt one. He broke his hand Game one.

788
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,199
Speaker 3: A perennial iron man in the NBA breaks his hand

789
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:32,800
the first game he plays with the Pelicans. Keep that

790
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:33,119
in mind.

791
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 5: I did not know that about Murray. He was viewed

792
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,199
as an iron man. Oh yeah, before that.

793
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,159
Speaker 3: He's one of those guys that doesn't miss games like

794
00:39:38,159 --> 00:39:39,920
he Okay, so we're just curs. I mean, you know,

795
00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:41,880
he breaks his hand Game one, whatever.

796
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:42,199
Speaker 4: Just cursed.

797
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 5: Never mind, So Michael Mlum's definitely not coming here.

798
00:39:44,559 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 3: No, I mean no, no, yeah, it sucks though it's

799
00:39:49,639 --> 00:39:51,639
so Yeah, you're looking at Dedonte not back till twenty

800
00:39:51,679 --> 00:39:55,239
twenty six, Herb Jones, torn Labram, Trey Murphy torn Labram

801
00:39:55,599 --> 00:39:58,840
so Zon gratefully, I know it's remember reported he's he's

802
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,119
not hurt. They just tank and he's finally healthy going

803
00:40:02,159 --> 00:40:08,320
to off season. So that's good. But you don't have

804
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:14,199
a choice. The problem with Zion is his biggest I

805
00:40:14,199 --> 00:40:16,840
guess downfall is free time. He is one of the

806
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,960
worst people I've managed, so babysitter.

807
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:22,679
Speaker 4: I saw.

808
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 5: Of picture or little video of Mariah Mills yesterday, and.

809
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 4: That's just freakish.

810
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:39,039
Speaker 5: That is that's Zion. Come on, man, you don't need

811
00:40:39,079 --> 00:40:40,280
to be messing with Mariah Mills.

812
00:40:40,519 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 4: That woman.

813
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,559
Speaker 5: And and this is me, but she looks like a

814
00:40:46,599 --> 00:40:50,320
circus freak like it's it's it's I I think, I

815
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,039
think deeply unattractive. Tell him the truth, it's deeply unattractive.

816
00:40:55,079 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 4: That is devious levels.

817
00:40:57,159 --> 00:41:01,079
Speaker 5: Of of horny from Zion, just truly devious stuff.

818
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 4: You guys.

819
00:41:03,119 --> 00:41:07,039
Speaker 1: De Jeany Murray is going to make his debut next

820
00:41:07,039 --> 00:41:10,159
season before Zion. Okay, let's just let's just get that

821
00:41:10,199 --> 00:41:10,719
out of the way.

822
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 3: Now, Zion is not hurt. He's not hurt.

823
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 4: Has no kids he needs to have baby. No, he

824
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,679
doesn't has two kids. Hees two. I thought he'd want.

825
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 6: I'm looking at this box score from the Nets game,

826
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:25,800
the last game the Pelicans played.

827
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 5: I don't know any name you're about to read, do you, Jeorge?

828
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 4: Do you know these names? I mean I know you,

829
00:41:33,559 --> 00:41:34,039
I do know.

830
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 5: You.

831
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 4: Do you do a Pelicans podcast? Like? Who are these people?

832
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:41,599
I want to hear them?

833
00:41:41,639 --> 00:41:45,159
Speaker 3: Antonio Reeves, Carlo mckovich, who else? Yeah, you don't know

834
00:41:45,199 --> 00:41:48,800
who's Leicster? Yeah? They just called that guy from Birmingham.

835
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 5: The thing is Jake knows NBA names though, yeah, gambling

836
00:41:53,079 --> 00:41:56,880
and fantasy like Jake normally knows the depths of rosters

837
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,840
to the way that always impresses me. And even the

838
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,960
Pelicans have extended beyond his knowledge base.

839
00:42:03,039 --> 00:42:05,280
Speaker 6: How many times is Elford Peyton been with the with

840
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:06,679
the Pelicans?

841
00:42:07,079 --> 00:42:10,280
Speaker 3: Hell, he balls on every time he does.

842
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,559
Speaker 6: He does, he does, and I and I love watching

843
00:42:13,639 --> 00:42:15,880
him play, but it's like, yeah, he's back on a

844
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:20,239
ten day anyway. This cat lester whose last name I

845
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,840
can't even try to pronounce, he got twenty minutes.

846
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:28,320
Speaker 4: Last night, Jamal Cain got sixteen minutes. He scored fifteen points. So, uh,

847
00:42:28,639 --> 00:42:30,960
Chad's Jamar Caine. I thought he was coaching. Where's he

848
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:31,480
at Miami?

849
00:42:31,519 --> 00:42:31,639
Speaker 16: Now?

850
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 4: Uh, Broncos? Right, is that what it is? Oh? Yeah

851
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:35,280
it is Broncos.

852
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:40,280
Speaker 5: Yeah this is Jamal Uh okay, chat say why that's

853
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:44,639
very upset We're talking about Pelicans. Why the negativity this morning?

854
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,760
Speaker 3: Look, it's we're not local.

855
00:42:47,039 --> 00:42:49,039
Speaker 5: We kind of we kind of stumbled into this, and

856
00:42:49,119 --> 00:42:55,000
yeah we're not. And we haven't had a good Pels

857
00:42:55,079 --> 00:42:58,760
refresher in a minute. And we have our local Pelican expert,

858
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:00,320
the guy who still covers the team.

859
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:01,519
Speaker 4: Then nobody else wants to.

860
00:43:02,039 --> 00:43:05,119
Speaker 6: So I think it was a true Trendon Wafford did

861
00:43:05,119 --> 00:43:09,360
have twenty two points against the Pelicans, former l basketball player.

862
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,960
The Pelicans also let Drew Timmy give him sixteen to nine.

863
00:43:13,119 --> 00:43:13,559
Speaker 10: Damn.

864
00:43:14,039 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 4: I've thought about Timmy a long time. The glue.

865
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, looks.

866
00:43:19,119 --> 00:43:21,559
Speaker 4: It's all Timmy gave you sixteen to nine.

867
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,559
Speaker 3: But it can be worse. Though. Listen, if they this

868
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,400
lottery is anything out the top three, cold red, hit

869
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:29,519
the butt, blow it up.

870
00:43:31,679 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 5: It's all bad. Was the Dallas tribute to Luca Weird.

871
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,440
It is mister big, absolutely weird, dumb, all of it.

872

886
00:44:29,079 --> 00:44:29,880

887
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 5: Huh yeah, yeah, like the first first sound of the boy.

888
00:44:32,519 --> 00:44:34,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, I didn't even care what the song was.

891
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,880
know what today is. Yeah, it's a Bronco chase. Right,

892
00:44:45,079 --> 00:44:46,280
That's not what I was gonna say.

893
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:50,679
Speaker 6: It was massive April tenth, a pair of white Bronco

894
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,840
I believe this is Bronco Chase day.

895
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 4: Make sure.

896
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:07,519
Speaker 5: No those June seventeenth, what do they call this juice Miss.

897
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:06,159
Speaker 4: On the road show?

898
00:45:06,159 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 5: In the jungle, I've been getting bombarded with stuff or

899
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:12,280
they're talking about juice Miss and it's some OJ anniversary.

900
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:13,840
Speaker 4: I don't know why they.

901
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,119
Speaker 5: Celebrate it, but the point is one of the listeners

902
00:45:17,199 --> 00:45:21,039
ended up sending me this video is a real blast

903
00:45:21,039 --> 00:45:27,639
from the past night pregame show.

904
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,039
Speaker 16: I'm a little Cajun boy from cut off Louisiana, about

905
00:45:34,079 --> 00:45:36,039
fifty miles off of the Orleans. But I never looked

906
00:45:36,039 --> 00:45:38,719
at myself and I still don't. As a celebrity, you

907
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:40,800
can talk to people I went to high school with

908
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,639
college that I haven't changed. I'm the same person I

909
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,679
was when you know, I won the state championship in

910
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,360
high school in nineteen seventy seven.

911
00:45:48,519 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 2: Hey bear rolling to the right, Kirk Bark, what's pressure

912
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,960
in the past called the touchdown?

913
00:45:54,079 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 5: The South of Coast bands are going crazy being a

914
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:58,000
local kid.

915
00:45:58,039 --> 00:46:02,599
Speaker 7: Do you think that is that made it tougher for you?

916
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:04,599
Speaker 16: I mean, had you, oh, without without a doubt, I

917
00:46:04,639 --> 00:46:07,239
mean made the man a lot from it. On nineteen

918
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,119
ninety when I sat out, it was like I was

919
00:46:09,119 --> 00:46:25,960
trying to run away from home. Why d you if

920
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,559
I came here and play well and has success. I

921
00:46:28,559 --> 00:46:31,440
mean I can run for governor of Louisiana or mayor

922
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,639
of Arms and get a lot of votes within if

923
00:46:33,679 --> 00:46:35,519
I wouldn't win and win have success. Didn't want to

924
00:46:35,559 --> 00:46:38,199
hang you by the narrows tree?

925
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:39,519
Speaker 4: Did they say that?

926
00:46:46,079 --> 00:46:50,679
Speaker 7: How frustrating was it when you had to make the decision.

927
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:51,639
Speaker 4: That you wanted out of here?

928
00:46:52,679 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 16: Well, actually it wasn't that hard because it was a

929
00:46:55,960 --> 00:47:00,079
business decision, football decision. I looked at the market, and

930
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:02,400
you know what, I thought I should be getting paid

931
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,199
as far as how I produce. So people would say,

932
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:06,920
what did you gain from ninete ninety holding out? Well, now,

933
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,039
I think it's all come in the past. The way

934
00:47:09,039 --> 00:47:11,760
the judge has ruled on plan bing has been declared illegal,

935
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,519
and nobody was damaged more than me on the Plan

936
00:47:14,599 --> 00:47:16,239
B because I was the only guy to miss a

937
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:16,840
whole season.

938
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 7: It's very distasteful. I think a lot of things were

939
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,239
said that shouldn't have been said. I think there's a

940
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,840
total misunderstanding of what happened. Very frankly, but that's history

941
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,119
and I'd rather not dwell on that. I hope Bobby

942
00:47:29,639 --> 00:47:32,679
is happy back here with the Saints, and I hope

943
00:47:32,679 --> 00:47:35,079
he continues to play here until he's ready to retire.

944
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:42,760
Speaker 16: You know, it's the things. I don't know if it

945
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,199
was the older football mentality, but the matter what age

946
00:47:46,199 --> 00:47:48,239
you are. But if you're younger than him, oh he's

947
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,559
a good kid. You know, he's a hard working kid.

948
00:47:50,639 --> 00:47:52,320
It was like, Hey, I'm a man just like you,

949
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,039
so treat me like a man. But you know, I'm

950
00:47:55,079 --> 00:47:57,599
not a vindictive person. I'm easy to go along, easy,

951
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,599
have a go lucky person, and I get a with anyone.

952
00:48:00,599 --> 00:48:02,079
If they don't want to get along with me, you know,

953
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:03,559
it's because they don't want to.

954
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 4: Put your relationship about it. No, it's okay. So it

955
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,880
doesn't bother you at all that they would allow you

956
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,199
to sit at home and not play at all.

957
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 16: Right, Well, no, because I think that's why you have courts,

958
00:48:18,079 --> 00:48:20,239
and that's why I think eventually I will reap the

959
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:24,079
benefits from that. And so you know, I'm just gonna

960
00:48:24,079 --> 00:48:25,679
look at it from a positive point of view, and

961
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,639
I'm not gonna and it will be hard headed and

962
00:48:28,679 --> 00:48:31,719
hold a grudge. That's not gonna you know, accomplish anything.

963
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,400
But I'm not naive. I've been around long enough to

964
00:48:34,519 --> 00:48:36,800
know that when they say they care about you, man,

965
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,320
they don't really care about if they care about you.

966
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 4: If you can play.

967
00:48:39,559 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 16: If you can't play and you can't produce, they're gonna

968
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:42,760
get rid of you. I mean, that's just the way

969
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:45,599
football is. And you know, you tell these young guys

970
00:48:45,639 --> 00:48:47,360
sometimes and they talk about, oh yeah, they will take

971
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,760
care of us. Man, you better believe that they'll take

972
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:51,239
care if you can play. If you can't play, you

973
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:52,880
be on the streets getting a real job.

974
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 5: Hell yeah, dude, shout out to the candid. So again

975
00:48:58,039 --> 00:49:03,599
it started as an OJ thing, but neverget that's pretty crazy.

976
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,519
Speaker 4: You're gonna talk about being a man of principal.

977
00:49:05,559 --> 00:49:08,840
Speaker 5: That man set out an entire year in his prime

978
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,679
and was a key part in creating what we know

979
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:15,519
today as free agency.

980
00:49:16,519 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 4: Uh that that that I thought that was. Man, he

981
00:49:19,079 --> 00:49:21,880
sounds different. Huh, he does sound different. He still got

982
00:49:22,079 --> 00:49:25,480
these younger you got that thick caging accent. Still kind

983
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:26,400
of lost a little bit over there.

984
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:26,679
Speaker 6: You don't.

985
00:49:26,679 --> 00:49:28,639
Speaker 5: You don't realize so you hear something like that.

986
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:32,079
Speaker 6: But yeah, when he was trying to say with with.

987
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:35,559
Speaker 4: Oh man, that was great.

988
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 5: Uh, screw you, Jim Finks our two TV coming up

989
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,440
next off the bench
