Speaker 4: Shout out to the Human Jukebox killed it, Harry Cotta

10
00:00:35,439 --> 00:00:36,679
I've never heard of her, to be fair, I was

11
00:00:36,679 --> 00:00:38,039
listening to some of her music this morning.

12
00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 3: Fantastic.

13
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, uh just great, great, great pregame performances all around.

14
00:00:47,079 --> 00:00:51,119
Uh hour two of the show today, I want to

15
00:00:51,119 --> 00:00:53,439
talk a bit about New Orleans and whether or not

16
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,000
the Super Bowl was a success for the city. We

17
00:00:58,079 --> 00:01:02,000
talked to plenty of the gay there now and one

18
00:01:02,039 --> 00:01:04,200
you go rewind to go check that out. Kellen Moore,

19
00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:06,239
particularly to be the next head coach of the New

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,200
Orleans Saints. Think it's a possible not to feel better

21
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,319
about him after winning a super Bowl. No matter where

22
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,439
your baseline was at with him, your fan, not a fan,

23
00:01:14,519 --> 00:01:17,519
you still feel better than you did. And he enters

24
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,519
the New Orleans job with a lot of momentum, which

25
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,920
makes you very happy. But let's talk about the city, guys,

26
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,280
because we spent a lot of time in the city.

27
00:01:26,879 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 3: Well except for you Tail unfortunately. Thank you for holding

28
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:29,560
down back here.

29
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 4: Even though I did, you know, I tried to get

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,920
to that the comedy just wasn't really into it. He

31
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,439
was like, it feels like I think I'm gonna show

32
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:38,519
up and be like, oh, this is cool, then.

33
00:01:38,519 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: Just want to leave. I tried to get him to

34
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,480
go to pretty much never mind.

35
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:43,239
Speaker 5: I think we all did.

36
00:01:43,519 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 3: Uh but whatever, So how do we feel, guys?

37
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 4: How do we feel that as as the entire world

38
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:56,920
turned their gaze to our wonderful port city right there

39
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,680
the Gulf of America, how do we feel that?

40
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: How do you feel that the city did? I thought

41
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:03,840
it was incredible.

42
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 6: I was gonna talk about it in weekend winters, but

43
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,360
I mean, let's just go ahead and get that out there.

44
00:02:09,479 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it deserves its own segment.

45
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 6: The city was incredibly clean. I thought the city was

46
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,000
incredibly safe. I thought that it showed you exactly why

47
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:24,479
it should host every major event, because nobody holds an

48
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:27,680
event like New Orleans. Nobody knows how to party like

49
00:02:27,759 --> 00:02:32,280
New Orleans, the hotels, the bars, the restaurants, the walkability, walkability,

50
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,159
single thing about the city. I think it had its

51
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:39,840
best foot forward. And I didn't hear one person complain no,

52
00:02:40,759 --> 00:02:42,840
And in fact, I got mad at one guy. We're

53
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:45,080
walking over to Media Row one day and there was

54
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,560
like a couple of pieces of trash by a trash can,

55
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:48,199
and he stops.

56
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 3: He's taking a picture.

57
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 6: He's just like filth And I was like, I said,

58
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,240
oh what, yeah, I said, oh, because it was this guy.

59
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,439
Three people he had a credentiable I'm like, oh, because

60
00:02:56,479 --> 00:02:57,879
three people missed a trash can.

61
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: I was like, have you not seen the rest of

62
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:00,919
this city? You nerd?

63
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,759
Speaker 6: Oh my gosh. I like, you came here to do

64
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,560
exactly what you're doing. It's like, why would you even

65
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,520
take a picture of that. It's just like it's dirty.

66
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,879
I'm like, cause there's three things. So you were talking

67
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:10,400
to this guy?

68
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know me?

69
00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 6: I yeah, confrontations somewhere I thrive And I'm like that,

70
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,800
that's ridiculous. It was like six thirty in the morning, too,

71
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:20,800
like nobody's had or whatever time we walked. Oh yeah,

72
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,159
six thirty, Like, nobody's really had a chance to clean

73
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:26,240
that up either. My guy's three pieces of trash by

74
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:26,840
a trash can.

75
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 3: What a joke, dude, So like, unless you.

76
00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 6: Were that guy looking for a reason, everybody that I

77
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,240
talked to was blown away. All my colleagues at Serious XM,

78
00:03:36,719 --> 00:03:38,840
all the people that you and I both know, just

79
00:03:38,919 --> 00:03:42,560
like in the media world, everybody was highly highly impressed.

80
00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:44,319
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, and just go look at like the

81
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:49,520
anecdotal evidence to famous people's social medias. Everybody is just

82
00:03:50,039 --> 00:03:52,639
glazing the city. I mean, Chad Johnson never wants to

83
00:03:52,719 --> 00:03:55,240
leave again, cardival Tune about how incredible the food is.

84
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,439
And there's just a couple of examples amongst countless examples.

85
00:03:58,639 --> 00:04:01,639
And and again something I mean being in the city.

86
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,599
You could feel it. You could feel it. And the

87
00:04:05,639 --> 00:04:08,719
weather was perfect, you know, over this time of year,

88
00:04:08,759 --> 00:04:11,000
and everybody was walking around in such great moods, and

89
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,120
there were so many cool, little hidden events going on

90
00:04:14,199 --> 00:04:17,000
all throughout the city. Like oh, like what was like

91
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,040
the Teddy swim story? He was was he? Oh, he

92
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:24,160
was at Lafitte's blacksmith shop, listening to the piano, and

93
00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:26,000
all of a sudden he gets inspired to just stand

94
00:04:26,079 --> 00:04:28,959
up and start performing. And that's like one of like

95
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,759
a million stories like that took place over the weekend.

96
00:04:32,879 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 3: And then and then shout out to.

97
00:04:35,959 --> 00:04:39,079
Speaker 4: Man, why do I keep forgetting the official name of

98
00:04:39,079 --> 00:04:41,720
the organization? We talked to Mark Roming, the host committee.

99
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:44,600
Shout out to the host committee, because not only with

100
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,560
all the events, like you think about the lighting of

101
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,920
the Saint Louis Cathedral, the opening night the NFL honors,

102
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,319
that the singer, the parade that the host committee put on,

103
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,560
the renovating to be like all that was fantastic, But

104
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,199
then also we talked to Mark Romeg. I was surprised

105
00:05:02,199 --> 00:05:04,480
about this, Jake. I didn't realize this wasn't part of

106
00:05:04,519 --> 00:05:07,279
the course. But this idea of okay, we've got some

107
00:05:07,319 --> 00:05:10,000
of the world's leaders here, let's pitch them on Louisiana.

108
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 3: They behind the scenes.

109
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 4: Outside of the public eye, they had events going on

110
00:05:15,759 --> 00:05:19,319
basically saying, hey, we are open for business and here's

111
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,920
why we're attractive. And I just assumed upon hearing that

112
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,240
that that is something that they do at every super

113
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,279
Bowl in every city, and that's not actually the case.

114
00:05:26,879 --> 00:05:30,480
Like this is something that is a bit unprecedented and

115
00:05:30,519 --> 00:05:33,399
then again you go into the pregame performances everything else.

116
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:36,759
It was just a it's really an A plus man,

117
00:05:37,519 --> 00:05:41,160
like an A plus plus. Granted you could you can

118
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,360
have another one and and and maybe something happens like

119
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,600
the lights go on the supernome right like like like

120
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,680
I don't know if you'll ever attain the heights of

121
00:05:48,759 --> 00:05:52,040
what was showed off this week again, but man, this

122
00:05:52,199 --> 00:05:56,720
was executed to perfection and you really put your well,

123
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,480
it's a representative of of of what the city is

124
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,120
in today's true. But at the same time, you dress

125
00:06:02,199 --> 00:06:03,959
up to go to a nice dinner, right, at a

126
00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:07,399
certain point, you have to try to look better than

127
00:06:07,399 --> 00:06:09,439
you are when when when the occasion calls for it.

128
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:10,839
And then I think the hope is that you try

129
00:06:10,879 --> 00:06:14,839
to move more in that direction over time. And so

130
00:06:14,879 --> 00:06:16,319
it's not to say that like the problems city are

131
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,480
going or anything like that, but I'll be damned if

132
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,600
it then it presents itself in the best possible light,

133
00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:24,040
and especially when it comes to like the economic impact.

134
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 3: Can imagine how big it is.

135
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 4: You spend a lot of money, but you got to

136
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,199
spend to make yeah, and it brought a lot of

137
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,800
money in I talked to one club owner. Guys, it's

138
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,720
gonna blow your mind. How much do you think a

139
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,639
table was going for Saturday night at Club Oh?

140
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 3: I told you, yeah, I wouldn't even know. I wouldn't

141
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,639
even know what to guess this. Guess just guess the number,

142
00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:50,360
Just guess the number. Where are we talking about? Club?

143
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 7: Oh?

144
00:06:51,959 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: Just a club right?

145
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 6: Like?

146
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,959
Speaker 3: And what night? Saturday night? Saturday night? Rick Ross performance? Okay,

147
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,759
eight grand? Okay, pretty good, tea.

148
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,519
Speaker 8: Twenty grand, one hundred grand. I was gonna guess one hundred,

149
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,360
one hundred grand.

150
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,639
Speaker 3: For a freaking table.

151
00:07:08,319 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 4: So again that's anecdotal, but just giving you an idea

152
00:07:10,759 --> 00:07:15,279
of the money that's being spent at these events. And

153
00:07:15,319 --> 00:07:17,920
so yeah, look, I I don't know, like it feels

154
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,000
like the NFL kind of cooled on New Orleans for

155
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,360
a while there. And I know that realistically the rotation

156
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,920
has to expand because teams are constantly building brand new

157
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,600
stadiums with basically the kind of tacit.

158
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,959
Speaker 3: Agreement, but it also doesn't need to well that's what.

159
00:07:32,879 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 4: I'm saying, Like, well, you still do kind of have

160
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,879
a core rotation though, and like this, what I'll say,

161
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,759
you should.

162
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,439
Speaker 3: Never go more than half a decade without coming back.

163
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 4: So maybe that's like one of every six, like a

164
00:07:47,519 --> 00:07:50,160
half like six, Like I'll even give you six years

165
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,360
if you don't want to do five twenty percent, but

166
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,079
it need it.

167
00:07:53,279 --> 00:07:57,759
Speaker 3: It cannot be the decade that you just experienced. It's

168
00:07:57,759 --> 00:07:58,160
too good.

169
00:07:58,199 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 4: The city's too walkable, no driving anywhere. You're just out

170
00:08:03,279 --> 00:08:06,399
and about and having a great time the entire time.

171
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 3: And I would just keep it to cities like that.

172
00:08:08,439 --> 00:08:11,959
Speaker 6: And I interviewed the host committee chair for next year

173
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,279
in Santa Clara, and I'm sure it's going to be nice.

174
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 3: But it is not walkable. It is so spread out.

175
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 6: I mean, the stadium isn't even really close to San Francisco. Like,

176
00:08:20,879 --> 00:08:22,920
so you're gonna have events in San Francisco, the game's

177
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,519
going to be in Santa Clara, and you're gonna have

178
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,839
like events spread out amongst like all those kind of

179
00:08:27,839 --> 00:08:29,240
cities in between as well.

180
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 3: Like Las Vegas was.

181
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 6: Great last year because Vegas is very easy to get around.

182
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. True, right now it's maybe not walkable.

183
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,919
Speaker 4: Now the hellscape of a city that will suck your

184
00:08:38,919 --> 00:08:42,120
soul out, ring you dry, and bury you in the desert.

185
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 6: But yes, yes, but you can get around pretty quick.

186
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,879
New Orleans falls into that category. There are cities that

187
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,799
kind of fall into that, and when you have these

188
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,679
cities that are so spread out, it is very difficult.

189
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 3: Like same thing for Miami.

190
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 6: Like Miami's a great host city because you know, you

191
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,559
can always count on the weather, different things. There's great events,

192
00:08:59,039 --> 00:09:01,720
but nothing's really close. I would even say, like Atlanta's

193
00:09:01,759 --> 00:09:03,200
going to be and it's too damn.

194
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,279
Speaker 4: Expensive, which I mean, I guess if you go to

195
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,480
super of people in character bas rich for like Miami's

196
00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:10,039
just crazy, yeah, crazy from a price standpoint.

197
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 3: Now I was.

198
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,519
Speaker 6: You know, Houston's got its challenges too, and I know

199
00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:17,000
a lot of people enjoy the city of Houston. I

200
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,000
do like enjoy going there, but even it is kind

201
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,399
of spread out from what you do. So New Orleans

202
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:26,399
needs to be in the core rotation. I think every

203
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,840
five years it needs to have a Super Bowl. And

204
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,279
if you get mad about that, sorry about it, because

205
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,080
not everywhere it's set up to host an event. Sure

206
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,399
everywhere is a little bit different, and I think like

207
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,120
the final four in National Championship Games, like it might

208
00:09:40,159 --> 00:09:42,639
not be the sexiest city, but like India's easy to

209
00:09:42,639 --> 00:09:45,159
get around San Antonio for the Final four is easy

210
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,320
to get around. They know how to host that event,

211
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:49,360
and I think.

212
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 3: Sean Payton actually nailed it.

213
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 4: Sean Payton speaking at the Steve Gleason Golf Tournament No

214
00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:57,240
White Flag Tournament the other day where he talked about.

215
00:09:57,159 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 3: The bones of the super Dome.

216
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,039
Speaker 4: That, yeah, there's all these other stadiums that are newer

217
00:10:04,279 --> 00:10:04,799
and have.

218
00:10:05,799 --> 00:10:08,519
Speaker 3: More flaccy ecoutrement and.

219
00:10:09,799 --> 00:10:14,919
Speaker 4: The latest and greatest technology, but it's the bones of

220
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,120
the Superdome how's originally constructed. And he goes on to

221
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,480
talk about how I know all these other multipurpose stadiums

222
00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:23,879
from the seventies are all gone nowadays, but the Superdome

223
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,519
remains because the bones are so solid where it's made,

224
00:10:27,639 --> 00:10:30,240
how it's made, the ability to innovate within the space,

225
00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:36,399
top tier, top tier. So take a bow everybody on

226
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:41,200
that host committee, everybody who worked the city, I mean

227
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,360
topped about it, from the highs of the high to

228
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,120
the people grinding cleaning up the streets, to all of

229
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,080
the incredible first responders that we saw throughout the weeknbit,

230
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:58,440
state troopers, firemen, medical personnel, whoever. Because everybody came together

231
00:10:58,919 --> 00:11:03,320
and for a week. It was magic. The city was magic.

232
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:06,679
In the entire world got to see.

233
00:11:06,759 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 3: I think J.

234
00:11:07,639 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 6: Cicero was the head of the committee, had a chance

235
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,080
to interview him, and you can just tell like everything

236
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,159
that they wanted to do got done.

237
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 3: And that is not easy.

238
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,919
Speaker 6: And so shout out to J. Cicero in the Team

239
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,000
three one greater Jay Cicero. Hell, but they did a

240
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,519
fantastic job. And everything that they wanted to make sure

241
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,480
that everybody knew about the city, they got that done,

242
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,320
and that is certainly not easy to do. Certainly also

243
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,679
after tragedy and you know, a terror attack this year,

244
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,320
sure like this this young year had you know, obviously

245
00:11:41,399 --> 00:11:44,879
an incident in New Orleans, a terror attack, and so like,

246
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,320
even with that surrounding the city, they still did a

247
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,000
fantastic job. If you went to the game, let me

248
00:11:51,039 --> 00:11:54,559
know how security was, because that was There was some

249
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,679
interesting rumblings on Radio Row about how basically like the

250
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,639
Secret Service are like Okay, look in if hell you

251
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,360
have hundreds of people, will we're bringing in three hundred more, Like.

252
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: We're gonna and we're gonna, they're gonna go through all

253
00:12:05,519 --> 00:12:07,159
of it. We don't care. People are late whatever, I

254
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,639
how is, how have you heard anything?

255
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,039
Speaker 6: So the head of security for this game, she was

256
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,039
the first ever female police chief in DC, held that

257
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,639
title for over a decade and it has done six inaugurations,

258
00:12:19,919 --> 00:12:20,879
damn six.

259
00:12:21,039 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: She's headed six.

260
00:12:22,279 --> 00:12:26,159
Speaker 6: Inaugurations and so it's pretty well equipped to be able

261
00:12:26,159 --> 00:12:28,240
to handle this. But still, like she even mentioned some

262
00:12:28,279 --> 00:12:31,480
different challenges and she's like, absolutely, the President being here

263
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,720
kind of changes the mass, she said, but we had

264
00:12:33,759 --> 00:12:36,440
that plan in place in case that did happen. I

265
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:37,759
was like, because I've been to a college game this

266
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,440
year George Bama where he decided to come and it

267
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,759
was not great. She's like, yeah, college stadium different than

268
00:12:43,759 --> 00:12:46,279
a professional stadium, she said. Now, this being a dome

269
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,320
and this, you know, being such a large venue with

270
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,879
so many different entry points, it is challenging.

271
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,159
Speaker 3: But you know, we've got a plan in place.

272
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 6: I'm like, look, you've done six inaugurations, You've probably got

273
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,919
a pretty decent plan.

274
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, and in decent indeed, as uh, they nailed it

275
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,759
top to bottom. So again, just a huge thank you

276
00:13:02,799 --> 00:13:05,080
man to everybody who made this week so special because

277
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,519
it goes down as one of the better weeks really

278
00:13:09,159 --> 00:13:11,360
ever for the city, which is a hell of a

279
00:13:11,399 --> 00:13:15,720
thing to say about a a city as historic as

280
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,960
New Orleans already is all.

281
00:13:17,919 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 3: Right, I think we maybe move on from the super

282
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:21,240
Bowl just.

283
00:13:21,159 --> 00:13:24,919
Speaker 4: For a little bit here, as we've got some basketball

284
00:13:24,919 --> 00:13:25,840
stuff to get over to.

285
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:30,159
Speaker 3: I guess we all even talk commercials and whatnot. Keep

286
00:13:30,159 --> 00:13:30,639
it locked.

287
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,360

Speaker 3: Welcome back to O TB.

317
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,399
Speaker 4: Jake. Your boy Bobby Carpenter is saying he made this up,

318
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:13,840
and I'm not here to argue, but it's a hell

319
00:15:13,879 --> 00:15:18,480
of a trademark. If he did nothing. Cools a hot

320
00:15:18,519 --> 00:15:20,480
seat like a gatorade.

321
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,559
Speaker 3: Bath, it's pretty damn good. He did make that up.

322
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,879
He said it on the Pat McAfee show.

323
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,559
Speaker 4: Okay, so he's about Ryan day because Adam Schefter last

324
00:15:27,639 --> 00:15:30,039
night tweeting the man the once in the hot seat

325
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,440
takes the ultimate shower to cool off, you know, with

326
00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:36,519
a video of Nick Sirianni getting his own Geterbeth. Now,

327
00:15:36,519 --> 00:15:38,279
I'm not accusing of raps shift to take like whatever,

328
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,399
Like that's a that's a I could see people independently

329
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,080
arriving there.

330
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:43,039
Speaker 3: But I love that saying.

331
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:44,639
Speaker 4: I've never thought of that, So that's gonna be added

332
00:15:44,679 --> 00:15:49,320
to my own lexicon. I think, uh, there was an

333
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,279
L Shoe Tiger on the field last night, not playing,

334
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,440
as Garrett Nussmeyer was down there at the Super Bowl

335
00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:01,080
with his father, Doug Nasmeyer, current quarterbacks coach for the

336
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:02,320
Philadelphia Eagles.

337
00:16:02,519 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 3: Meaning, Jake, you.

338
00:16:04,039 --> 00:16:08,679
Speaker 4: Might have Doug Nussmeyer as the offensive coordinator potentially for

339
00:16:08,799 --> 00:16:12,000
the New Orleans Saints as his son is leading an

340
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,759
LSU team. Where I had this conversation probably a thousand times.

341
00:16:16,559 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 3: This last week. It is playoffs are bust for the

342
00:16:20,279 --> 00:16:21,279
Tigers next season.

343
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 4: But that's crazy, man, how much so much Nutsmeyer influence

344
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:29,120
going to be in South Louisiana. Who knows, maybe maybe

345
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,360
he ends up winning the Natty at LSU, going to

346
00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:32,480
Saints and winning Super Bowl?

347
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:33,759
Speaker 3: Hey, how about it?

348
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,559
Speaker 6: That was Yeah, that was a question that we got

349
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,039
pretty often this week, was about LSU and like, what's

350
00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:45,360
the feeling, what's the vibes down there?

351
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: And I think you said it, and I just kind

352
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:48,200
of followed suit with you.

353
00:16:48,279 --> 00:16:49,799
Speaker 6: It's like, yeah, if you don't, if you don't make

354
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,799
the playoffs, like it gets real chaotic.

355
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 3: I'm just never gonna believe that you can't if you

356
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:54,799
don't make it this year.

357
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 4: And it's not say that you can't, but I'm never

358
00:16:56,879 --> 00:16:59,519
gonna give you the benefit of that again. And I'm

359
00:16:59,559 --> 00:17:01,360
not even saying you should be fired because again that

360
00:17:01,519 --> 00:17:04,640
just comes down to like financials and whatnot. But like,

361
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,039
there's so much investment in the staff, so much investment

362
00:17:07,039 --> 00:17:10,240
in the roster, so many shrewd moods be made you.

363
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,759
You appear to have patched up all the holes you've

364
00:17:12,799 --> 00:17:17,200
given you, You've been given all the ingredients. Now you

365
00:17:17,279 --> 00:17:19,759
have to go fall through. So yes, that's where my

366
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:22,559
head is that with your twenty thwenty five l SHU Tigers,

367
00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:24,400
if you do not make the playoff this year and

368
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,440
contend for a championship, then I don't care what you

369
00:17:27,559 --> 00:17:28,599
do in the offseason.

370
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 3: I will no longer say that I expect you to

371
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:33,839
h and you will. You will. You will have to

372
00:17:34,279 --> 00:17:36,079
prove us wrong if you want to do that in

373
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:36,640
the future.

374
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 4: But then I guess, like that wasn't really the point

375
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,359
of all this that just kind of came about as

376
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,519
I was reminiscing on last week. The point is, you're

377
00:17:47,519 --> 00:17:52,559
gonna have a heavy Nu Smier influence in South Louisiana

378
00:17:52,559 --> 00:17:57,960
football coming out next year. Ls USE baseball's coming back

379
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,400
this We're gonna say the vibes are good. Yeah, guys,

380
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,559
how are we feeling? Open and week? Finally here, I

381
00:18:03,599 --> 00:18:05,519
saw a lot of memes being tweeted out as soon

382
00:18:05,559 --> 00:18:08,839
as a game ended about it's finally baseball season time,

383
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:14,440
and well, the LSU men's baseball team entering one of

384
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,680
the most exciting years that I can remember as well,

385
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,519
Here's to hoping that we don't have to go through

386
00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:26,799
the six weeks of insane stress, bad breaks, and close

387
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,839
losses before scrapping out of finish.

388
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 3: Here's to hoping that they can kind.

389
00:18:31,279 --> 00:18:33,799
Speaker 4: Of assume that title of being the top five team

390
00:18:33,799 --> 00:18:35,839
in the entire country from the beginning this time around.

391
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it would definitely, you know, be something

392
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,039
that everybody's kind of ready to get behind. Not that

393
00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:45,559
they don't always around LSU baseball, but you know, with

394
00:18:45,559 --> 00:18:49,200
football not making the twelve team playoff, with men's basketball

395
00:18:49,319 --> 00:18:53,720
right now just not playing well not finishing the other night,

396
00:18:53,759 --> 00:18:56,759
which I know we'll get to at some point. You know,

397
00:18:56,839 --> 00:19:00,119
outside of women's basketball, who looks like they are going

398
00:18:59,960 --> 00:19:02,519
to make another deep run And we'll see where softball

399
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,319
ends up. But with the expectation, I think a lot

400
00:19:05,319 --> 00:19:06,759
of people are wanting to get.

401
00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:08,039
Speaker 3: Behind a nice run.

402
00:19:08,039 --> 00:19:10,599
Speaker 6: They're wanting to get behind a championship run, and this

403
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,759
baseball team certainly has the pieces to do so we

404
00:19:13,799 --> 00:19:15,559
know it takes a lot. We have seen teams that

405
00:19:15,599 --> 00:19:18,079
have been ranked the top five in the preseason around here.

406
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,519
Speaker 3: Before and they have not ended well.

407
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 6: This one feels like it's built a little bit different,

408
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,440
and I think everybody is looking for something to be

409
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,720
able to grasp onto and make that kind of run.

410
00:19:27,279 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah it I agree, I would man, oh man, oh man.

411
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 4: Now it is a little bit of that tease situation

412
00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:40,319
where the out of conference schedule is such that.

413
00:19:41,759 --> 00:19:43,039
Speaker 3: We're gonna be watching.

414
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 4: I don't know how much excitement there's going to be,

415
00:19:45,519 --> 00:19:48,319
But like when I tell you, I am counting down

416
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:54,200
the second till conference play, till that first SEC weekend

417
00:19:54,519 --> 00:19:57,680
in which all your hopes and dreams once again lie

418
00:19:57,759 --> 00:20:00,920
on taken two or three. Can you find a way

419
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,319
to finish ahead two out of the Friday Saturday Sunday rot.

420
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,799
It's one of my favorite rhythms in all of sports.

421
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,559
Is the SEC baseball season a laundry. You're probably the

422
00:20:12,559 --> 00:20:15,799
biggest SEC baseball fan on the show LSU Baseball.

423
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 3: How how we feel about opening week?

424
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm really excited, and it's honestly more exciting that

425
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,519
it's not a night game. It's like a it's first

426
00:20:24,519 --> 00:20:26,079
pitch is at two o'clock on Friday.

427
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,319
Speaker 3: Oh let's go. Yeah, less time to wait for.

428
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,839
Speaker 5: The first pitch. And yeah, I'm just super excited.

429
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 9: Hopefully we see Chase Shores out there to start off

430
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:40,440
the season. But you're right, non conference is fun, but

431
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,079
once you get into that SEC play, there is nothing

432
00:20:44,279 --> 00:20:46,960
like it. My nerves get super shot and it is like,

433
00:20:47,559 --> 00:20:49,240
oh my gosh, so let's take two of three.

434
00:20:49,279 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 5: I love a clean sweet.

435
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 9: But yeah, it just I'm very, very excited and nerves.

436
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,519
It really is like last year we talked about how

437
00:20:57,559 --> 00:21:00,200
it's an SEC acc dominant sport.

438
00:21:00,279 --> 00:21:04,319
Speaker 5: And it's the same way it is this season as well.

439
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,960
So just I'm ready. I'm very ready.

440
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 9: Yeah, it brings like a sort of I don't know,

441
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,720
like nerves to me that I don't know. It really

442
00:21:13,799 --> 00:21:16,680
does feel like my life is hanging on every single pitch.

443
00:21:17,079 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 4: It's it's the best feeling ever, and it's one that

444
00:21:19,319 --> 00:21:25,640
I did not really experience truly as an adult until

445
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,240
the Jay Johnson Natty Run yeah a few years ago.

446
00:21:30,319 --> 00:21:33,200
And once you have sucked from that cup, yeah, once

447
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,640
you have, once you have tasted that tension, yeah, and

448
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,720
that adrenaline and that anxiety. Ooh, it is like a

449
00:21:40,839 --> 00:21:44,839
drug that you continue to chase to try to feel

450
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,759
once again. And we're getting close.

451
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,759
Speaker 9: So I keep telling people, you know, they're like, oh man,

452
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,640
I'm so sad football season's over.

453
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 5: What am I supposed to do?

454
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:53,839
Speaker 1: Now?

455
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,279
Speaker 5: What do I watch on the weekends?

456
00:21:55,319 --> 00:21:59,319
Speaker 9: I'm like, y'all do not understand how exciting college baseball

457
00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:02,359
as a whole hole is, like not even just l SU.

458
00:22:02,559 --> 00:22:06,319
Like I can put any college baseball game on on

459
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,480
the weekend and I'm locked in because it's all so good.

460
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 4: Like the competition is, especially in the SFC, it's like

461
00:22:14,039 --> 00:22:17,680
it's like you have like a it's almost like that

462
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,279
like this sounds I don't know if people are gonna

463
00:22:20,279 --> 00:22:24,319
think that sounds good or not, but it is because

464
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:25,440
it is so intimate.

465
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 3: It's almost like some.

466
00:22:26,599 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 4: Like Super aa U League or whatever, or like some

467
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,200
super league invitational where there's not a ton of teams

468
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,200
but all the teams are very high quality. Take do

469
00:22:35,279 --> 00:22:38,039
they have or do they have like a whip around channel?

470
00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:40,799
Like does ESPN have any sort.

471
00:22:40,559 --> 00:22:41,759
Speaker 5: Of like red zone type thing?

472
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 8: That would be.

473
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 3: Really nice for someone like me maybe doesn't want to

474
00:22:45,079 --> 00:22:49,400
lazily yeah, or regionals?

475
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, but okay, but maybe not for SEC week in

476
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,839
week to week. Oh, that'd be that'd be pretty great

477
00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:54,200
if they.

478
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 8: Did, actually, wouldn't hate.

479
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 7: Uh.

480
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,079
Speaker 3: How are you feeling about opening week?

481
00:22:58,839 --> 00:23:01,039
Speaker 8: What do they say about you on your wedding day?

482
00:23:01,079 --> 00:23:01,519
Good luck?

483
00:23:01,599 --> 00:23:02,799
Speaker 3: Right? Yeah?

484
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,319
Speaker 7: Friday and Saturday, possibly rainy skies. Of course it would

485
00:23:06,319 --> 00:23:08,279
be opening weekend of LSU baseball.

486
00:23:08,279 --> 00:23:11,559
Speaker 8: You're obviously going to have rain. But hey, we'll see.

487
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 7: That rain is a good omen for the Tigers the

488
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:13,559
rest of the year.

489
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 4: No.

490
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 7: Uh, Hunt sent out that thing about who are you

491
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,960
most excited for? It's gonna be Chase Shorges, right, I

492
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,759
mean for two years we had heard, hey, this guy's special,

493
00:23:21,799 --> 00:23:23,359
like he could be one of the best pitchers ever.

494
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 8: It's time to see it.

495
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 4: I mean, I feel like we saw a little bit

496
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,359
of it against Tennessee and then he gets hurt one

497
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:31,920
hundred percent.

498
00:23:32,039 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 7: But I'm excited to see that this pitching staff should

499
00:23:34,799 --> 00:23:37,240
be very, very deep, which is something less you had

500
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:38,240
problems with last year.

501
00:23:38,519 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't any rain.

502
00:23:39,839 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 6: It's also opening season for the EU lug Nuts, so

503
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,279
you know, I don't I don't need rain Friday season

504
00:23:47,079 --> 00:23:47,599
ug Nuts.

505
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:53,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's It's a lot of baseball, bat baseball.

506
00:23:53,079 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 9: I'm excited to see all the new transfers, like Daniel

507
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,319
Dickinson is one that I'm excited to see just because

508
00:23:58,319 --> 00:23:59,960
there's a lot of hype around him too in the

509
00:24:00,079 --> 00:24:04,240
off season. So I all the newcomers, Derek Curial, Action,

510
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,920
Yallow Creel, little Luis Hernandez.

511
00:24:08,079 --> 00:24:10,599
Speaker 4: But let's not lose sight of you know, like can

512
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,200
Monster pick up where he left off? Like the level

513
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,799
of play that Steven Mylin was at at the by

514
00:24:16,839 --> 00:24:22,400
the end of last season was overwhelming, and it's a

515
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,920
really high bar to just say, hey, new season, go

516
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,759
do that again, but do it even better.

517
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,839
Speaker 3: Like kind of the same thing with Bear Jones.

518
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 4: He had such an impressive jump from freshman year to

519
00:24:32,279 --> 00:24:35,079
year number two in terms of staying good where he

520
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,000
was good, getting better where he wasn't. Can he do

521
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,799
a similar jump this year, and if he does, then

522
00:24:40,799 --> 00:24:42,599
he's like a legitimate Golden Spikes kids.

523
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 8: How witching positions as well, I was not going to

524
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:45,480
play second this year.

525
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,839
Speaker 5: I think, Yeah, I think so.

526
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 9: But like the because Jay Johnson takes a lot of

527
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,319
pride in developing players, like that's something that he always

528
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:57,319
talks about. So that but the trick is, like Taylor said,

529
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,440
he is going to switch positions and shortstop, well it's

530
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,640
called shortstop. Usually have somebody that's a little taller playing

531
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:08,000
that position. But I mean it, I have faith in

532
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:08,759
Monster Milo.

533
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 4: Yes, I will not doubt Steve Milom. Uh yeah. I

534
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,519
mean we call j Johnson development god for a reason.

535
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:15,319
Speaker 5: Yeah.

536
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,519
Speaker 4: That's also why when he brings in transfers it's a

537
00:25:18,559 --> 00:25:21,839
little more exciting than when others do, because we've seen

538
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,599
him have this ability to unlock guy's potentials and and

539
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,359
and cause him to take a tick up.

540
00:25:27,839 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 3: With their with their level of play.

541
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 5: I mean, Tommy Tanks, Paul Skins just two glaring examples

542
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:35,359
of that.

543
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 3: Exactly exactly.

544
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,559
Speaker 4: And here's the hoping that we have many, many more

545
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,680
to be celebrating after this year. All right, when we

546
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,480

547

a big loss, and uh it's some adventures in the

was talking to who's at McCaffrey.

598
00:28:55,799 --> 00:28:57,960

618
00:29:50,519 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 4: The point we had that we haven't talked to it yet.

619
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,839
We've talked around it, we haven't talked about it. Is

620
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,400
Zach Bond by the way coming up with a pick

621
00:29:56,599 --> 00:29:57,720
in yesterday's game just.

622
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,279
Speaker 3: And led the Eagles and tackles.

623
00:29:59,319 --> 00:30:02,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, just really drive home and not to be to

624
00:30:02,559 --> 00:30:04,559
the fact you got Chauncey Gardner Johnson back in the

625
00:30:04,559 --> 00:30:08,640
building in which he used to play again driving home

626
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:09,400
the Saints front.

627
00:30:09,279 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 3: Offs in aptitude.

628
00:30:11,119 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 4: But uh, Scott tweeted out, quote, it's at least irksome.

629
00:30:15,799 --> 00:30:18,319
The Eagles produced one of the best defenses in modern

630
00:30:18,359 --> 00:30:21,519
memory when starting two Saints cast offs who were required

631
00:30:21,519 --> 00:30:24,960
for almost nothing, and the Saints first round draft pick

632
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,680
as uh, yeah, don't forget that they gave that to

633
00:30:27,759 --> 00:30:30,200
Eagles as well. Well done, Mickey, hope the Eagles send

634
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:34,599
you a ring, that's what Scott. Yeah, Irksom is a

635
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,839
good way of describing that. Irksom is not a word

636
00:30:38,839 --> 00:30:41,079

seventy to fifty nine. Well, the game would finish on

665
00:32:06,079 --> 00:32:11,240
a thirteen to oh Old Miss run, culminating in a

666
00:32:11,319 --> 00:32:14,519
tipping with point one seconds left after an offensive foul

667
00:32:14,519 --> 00:32:16,480
in the possession to which LSU could have won the game,

668
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,400
and Ole miss walks off with the buzzer beater win.

669
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,039
Speaker 3: How many losses that in a row in conference?

670
00:32:21,079 --> 00:32:22,119
Speaker 8: Now in a row?

671
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 3: Seven one to nine overs.

672
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 8: Because they started h and three then they won one,

673
00:32:26,559 --> 00:32:27,279
so six.

674
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 4: Six and again went down in probably the saddest way possible.

675
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 3: Anything to say here goes uh.

676
00:32:35,279 --> 00:32:37,359
Speaker 7: So you mentioned they were up by ten with three

677
00:32:37,359 --> 00:32:41,000
minutes and fourteen seconds left over the final three minutes

678
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:45,400
and fourteen seconds, LSU attempted one shot. It was a

679
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,559
block Cam Carter free throw, a layup attempt.

680
00:32:48,599 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 3: They attempted one shot attempted.

681
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,119
Speaker 8: Were they showing every possession turning the ball over? But

682
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:55,200
what do they always say too?

683
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 7: But like good teams find a way to win, bad

684
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,119
teams find a way to lose.

685
00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 3: Yeh.

686
00:32:58,599 --> 00:33:01,359
Speaker 7: LSU is mesmerizing in the fact that they continue to

687
00:33:01,359 --> 00:33:04,559
find different ways to lose basketball games.

688
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,599
Speaker 8: They outshot all this for the majority of the game.

689
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:08,279
Speaker 7: They held on to ball the majority of the game,

690
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:09,960
and there were the games on the line to just

691
00:33:10,279 --> 00:33:12,960
they utter collapse. It's like they were like, we didn't

692
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,920
expect to be up by ten. We have no idea what.

693
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,599
Speaker 10: To do well, Jake anything on the men before we

694
00:33:18,599 --> 00:33:20,359
move on to the good team, or you wilunder anybody.

695
00:33:20,359 --> 00:33:22,240
I mean, you don't have to, Like you really don't

696
00:33:22,319 --> 00:33:25,240
have to, know, you don't have Yeah, that's what I'm saying,

697
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,359
nobody has to.

698
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 3: I just want to make sure wealize everybody.

699
00:33:28,319 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 6: Like I was excited, I'm like, oh my gosh, they

700
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,079
need this so bad and this can maybe give them

701
00:33:34,119 --> 00:33:36,440
some life to finish strong. And now it's going to

702
00:33:36,759 --> 00:33:39,720
probably do the complete opposite. Yeah, you're going to go

703
00:33:39,799 --> 00:33:42,519
the complete opposite way. And after starting out the non

704
00:33:42,519 --> 00:33:44,599
conference so much better than you did a year ago,

705
00:33:44,599 --> 00:33:47,359
We're like, well, you were so bad in the non

706
00:33:47,359 --> 00:33:49,480
conference and then you were five hundred in the SEC

707
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:50,160
last year.

708
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 3: This is gonna be it's gonna be pretty good. You

709
00:33:52,759 --> 00:33:53,440
might have, you.

710
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 6: Know, I don't know, six hundred percent in the SEC.

711
00:33:57,759 --> 00:33:59,240
Like that's what I like hoped.

712
00:33:59,799 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 3: No, not close. And look, you know a.

713
00:34:02,839 --> 00:34:06,279
Speaker 4: Lot of people will go after bing Man and whatnot.

714
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:11,880
I mean I realistically this is like you know, you know,

715
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,239
when you think about like like think about a city

716
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,199
like New Orleans trying to support a third professional franchise,

717
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,360
I just you just don't have the population for it.

718
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:28,920
And and realistically speaking, and that same way, is it

719
00:34:29,079 --> 00:34:32,119
possible with everything else that you put money into?

720
00:34:32,119 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 3: It? Els you? Is it possible even for men's basketball

721
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,559
to be good. They've been good in the past.

722
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,599
Speaker 4: No, No, I know, but I'm talking about the contexts

723
00:34:39,639 --> 00:34:42,159
where else Sho's at Now? You got full of investment

724
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,719
in football, obviously, you always have that. Kim Moulki is

725
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:51,119
demands and rightfully so receives a lot of investment as well.

726
00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:53,159
And she creates it for herself, right she's one out

727
00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:56,440
there beating the streets, politicking, no talking to donors, like

728
00:34:56,559 --> 00:34:57,679
making the money happen.

729
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 3: You have Jay Johnson again, another national.

730
00:35:00,039 --> 00:35:01,599
Speaker 4: You have your winning coach in a sport that is

731
00:35:02,559 --> 00:35:05,079
I'm probably LSU fan's second favorite two football.

732
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 3: It's just I don't Jake.

733
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 6: Clark want to Nattie and they fill out oh yeah,

734
00:35:09,039 --> 00:35:10,920
true every single meet.

735
00:35:11,119 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 3: I just don't think there's enough oxygen in the room.

736
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,519
Speaker 9: Well, no one's gonna want to invest in a team

737
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:16,719
that's losing all the time.

738
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 3: No, And I mean it's hard to.

739
00:35:19,199 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 9: Get to get bought into a team that's just not good.

740
00:35:22,559 --> 00:35:24,119
Speaker 3: But there in lies the vicious cycle.

741
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, because in basketball right now, even more so than

742
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,199
football that we don't talk about as much because we

743
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,559
talk so much football here and so little men's basketball.

744
00:35:33,559 --> 00:35:37,119
But like you think football's pay to win, basketball is

745
00:35:37,159 --> 00:35:39,920
even more so. It's less players, more money per player,

746
00:35:40,039 --> 00:35:43,480
and LSU's just bringing a shoe string budget.

747
00:35:43,119 --> 00:35:43,599
Speaker 3: To the equation.

748
00:35:43,679 --> 00:35:47,199
Speaker 4: And you know what, frankly, I don't want it to change.

749
00:35:47,679 --> 00:35:49,320
You're telling me you're gonna have to take away the

750
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,760
money from women's whether you're telling me you got to

751
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,360
take the away of the money from baseball or football, like, no,

752
00:35:54,559 --> 00:35:57,400
Like I think I'd rather be good at those other things.

753
00:35:57,599 --> 00:36:00,760
Speaker 7: I think what you're asking is, like long terms, you

754
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,119
have a successful program. It's like we've seen flashes, right

755
00:36:03,159 --> 00:36:04,360
you mean like long terms.

756
00:36:04,159 --> 00:36:07,159
Speaker 4: I mean a long term success within the context of

757
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,960
all the other sports and where they're at at LSU

758
00:36:10,079 --> 00:36:13,239
right now. No, there's just not a lot of resources

759
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:14,280
to go around.

760
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 7: Me and me and Mario used to have this conversation

761
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,280
all the time. He's a big basketball fan.

762
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 8: He's like Taylor.

763
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 7: It's embarrassing that like Alabama and Auburn can put together

764
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,159
these these incredible basketball teams that we can't and I

765
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,880
always say, stop comparing LSU basketball to other basketball teams.

766
00:36:27,079 --> 00:36:30,519
Compare LSU baseball to the other basketball teams. Other teams

767
00:36:30,559 --> 00:36:34,000
don't invest in baseball like LSU. You have to sacrifice somewhere,

768
00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:37,480
like Alabama great and basketball great in football, look their

769
00:36:37,519 --> 00:36:40,039
baseball program. I mean it's very similar. You're not going

770
00:36:40,039 --> 00:36:42,440
to have three dominant sports anymore. You got to kind

771
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:43,599
of pick and choose which ones you have.

772
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

773
00:36:44,519 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 6: So unless you just have like all the moneyes well, yes, yeah,

774
00:36:48,599 --> 00:36:50,880
like if A Texas in.

775
00:36:51,079 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 3: Texas, they just keep paying.

776
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 4: They can just pay everything, you know, and and and

777
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,000
you're seeing that.

778
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,519
Speaker 3: That's one of the reasons why A and M is

779
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,719
at least like okay in every sport. Now, on the

780
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:03,280
other side of the.

781
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,599
Speaker 4: Question, there's the LSU women who deserve investment, get investment,

782
00:37:07,679 --> 00:37:11,360
and reward said investment as all they do is win

783
00:37:11,639 --> 00:37:15,440
and definitely shadowed on the Super Bowl again, just absolute

784
00:37:16,159 --> 00:37:17,639
brutally bad scheduling.

785
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the p MAC was rocking. Did you watch

786
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:22,159
the game? No?

787
00:37:22,519 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 6: I got over the in the third quarter, Like I

788
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,280
was in another room and the game was on. I

789
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,000
was like, what is that? Literally, the crowd over the

790
00:37:33,039 --> 00:37:36,519
announcers so LSU played host to Tennessee.

791
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:40,280
Speaker 4: The first game in Noxle was an absolute classic, finished

792
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,920
with that incredible Calen Gilbert left hand, and the p

793
00:37:44,039 --> 00:37:46,960
MAC game's not at this point either as LSU wins

794
00:37:47,039 --> 00:37:51,119
eighty two to seventy seven, and once again KG goes

795
00:37:51,159 --> 00:37:53,400
off twenty three points seven to fifteen from the field

796
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,280
three or four from three coach Mokey squad.

797
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 3: All they do is win.

798
00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:00,119
Speaker 6: I mean over eleven thousand people in a ten and

799
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:02,440
then some four Super Bowl Sunday and.

800
00:38:02,519 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 3: At three pm with the game starting and what like

801
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:05,320
five point thirty.

802
00:38:05,199 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, that is pretty incredible. And again on the broadcast,

803
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,199
I mean you could feel the p MAC. And now

804
00:38:11,199 --> 00:38:12,800
I'm talking about the third quarter, so I'm not even

805
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,880
talking about like the fourth quarter, Like you had moments

806
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,280
in the third where LSU is there and they made

807
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,199
a buzzer well they thought was a buzzer beater and

808
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,599
ended up not being good, but I mean it erupted

809
00:38:25,039 --> 00:38:28,159
whenever that went in to in the third quarter, and

810
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,800
it never really died down. And now LSU the only

811
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:35,639
team in the SEC that only has one loss overall,

812
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,679
and now three teams tied at first with LSU Texas

813
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,039
and South Carolina. After South Carolina loses Texas over the weekend.

814
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,360
Speaker 3: Oh, South Carolina dropped the Texas a week and I

815
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:47,920
didn't realize.

816
00:38:48,119 --> 00:38:51,039
Speaker 6: Okay, I mean Taylor, what was like fifty seven straight

817
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:52,599
some regular games.

818
00:38:52,639 --> 00:38:53,320
Speaker 3: Maybe they had won.

819
00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:58,039
Speaker 7: The most important thing about this is the fact that

820
00:38:58,119 --> 00:39:00,519
Kaylen Gilbert led you in score worry, Like, we can

821
00:39:00,559 --> 00:39:02,519
go ahead and call her the Tennessee Killer because she

822
00:39:03,039 --> 00:39:06,119
dominated him last time as well. But well, people don't realize,

823
00:39:06,119 --> 00:39:08,639
Like if you're watching women's basketball, they've been winning these games,

824
00:39:08,639 --> 00:39:10,039
but they've been winning them defensively.

825
00:39:10,119 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 8: Here's why.

826
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 7: After the Tennessee game, the first one, Kaylen Gilbert was

827
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,480
eight for fifty four, shooting off the bench eight for

828
00:39:18,599 --> 00:39:21,400
fifty four since the last game she played against Tennessee.

829
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,519
That's why you're kind of struggling because she didn't have

830
00:39:23,519 --> 00:39:26,199
anybody scoring off the bench like a Kayln Gilbert. She

831
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,639
puts twenty three points up. That was the biggest thing,

832
00:39:28,679 --> 00:39:30,599
because can she get out of her shooting swamp.

833
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:31,679
Speaker 8: You look where LSU scored.

834
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,079
Speaker 7: I mean they scored in the mid eighties, Like that

835
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:34,960
made all the difference in the world.

836
00:39:35,519 --> 00:39:39,039
Speaker 4: Shout out to the LSU women getting it done. Unfortunate

837
00:39:39,119 --> 00:39:42,039
for the LSU men as I don't know how they

838
00:39:42,119 --> 00:39:43,119
end up getting it done.

839
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 3: Let's close out out number two of allf the bench

But my god, as I get older, which I am

872
00:41:29,079 --> 00:41:32,400
just starting to crave routine. Had a great birthday week,

873
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,280
and thank you to everyone for all the birthday wishes.

874
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,719
I've pretty much ignored everyone that reached out thus far,

875
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,239
but I'll try to get back, you know, say thank you.

876
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,960
I took in my birthday on Saturday as as one

877
00:41:48,039 --> 00:41:52,400
should by grinding at the gold Mine till two am.

878
00:41:53,079 --> 00:41:56,159
What a time, What a time. I went to this party, Jake,

879
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:01,000
that my agent works for this thing athletes. First I

880
00:42:01,039 --> 00:42:03,559
was like, ooh, athletes for super Bowl party. Oh, this

881
00:42:03,599 --> 00:42:11,079
is probably gonna be pretty cool. It's like it's like

882
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:16,679
my ultimate non favorite scene. A bunch of people posturing,

883
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,880
trying to feel cool. No one dancing, everybody just talking

884
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:25,119
and kind of like a little hesitant to get outside themselves.

885
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,000
Uh so like you know the whole time, Like I

886
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,599
got this, I got this the whole time, try and

887
00:42:30,639 --> 00:42:32,840
try and try and and then sure enough, dude, who

888
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,199
was there for me in my time and need when

889
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,519
I when I when I needed to go to go

890
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,920
be be you know, be be free and and and

891
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:45,559
and express my exaltation through the power of dance. The

892
00:42:45,599 --> 00:42:48,880
place who always is, the place where it doesn't matter

893
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,599
how old you are, Jake, you are not judged.

894
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,199
Speaker 3: And that's the goal Mine. Yeah, shout out to you,

895
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:56,559
goal Mine. I love you for that.

896
00:42:56,599 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 4: It's it's the one place where you can go dance

897
00:42:59,079 --> 00:43:00,800
on the dance floor. And like we had an even

898
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,360
older couple grinding right next to us, and none of

899
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,719
the young people were judging us, and I had a

900
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:10,480
lot of flaming. Doctor Pepper's just really brought the night

901
00:43:10,519 --> 00:43:12,199
together in a in a perfect way.

902
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think I've been there since right before

903
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,639
the twenty nineteen l Shue Clemson game.

904
00:43:18,679 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 3: Have been a few years for me. It's the last

905
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,639
time that I've been to the gold mine.

906
00:43:21,679 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 6: But good spot. You're right, no judgment there. No, it's

907
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,119
a mix of young and old.

908
00:43:26,679 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 4: Shout out my guy, Dave. Dude spinning the tracks. Uh

909
00:43:30,639 --> 00:43:33,480
Saturday night. I mean when I tell you we were

910
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:38,360
grinding dude, me and the wife, I mean my quads

911
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,920
and hammies are still sore. I'm talking about dropping it

912
00:43:42,039 --> 00:43:46,400
lower than you've ever seen, full sigon, squat balls.

913
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,320
Speaker 3: On the ground, getting it for hours. You just here

914
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:57,800
like Moffatts squaw getting it. Just take aggressive fun. God,

915
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,800
it was good. It's been too long.

916
00:44:02,559 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 9: I've never heard somebody say they danced so hard their

917
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,039
balls were on the ground, But.

918
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,039
Speaker 4: That's what it was though, you know, it's sometimes the

919
00:44:10,119 --> 00:44:14,559
level of effort you got to put in. Yeah, I've

920
00:44:14,559 --> 00:44:17,199
been grinding with my wife like that since my brother's wedding.

921
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:21,039
It's been too long, you know, it's like sometimes you've

922
00:44:21,039 --> 00:44:22,480
been in a relationship as long as we have them.

923
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,880
Thirty six now after yesterday, sir, dating when I was sixteen,

924
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:27,000
that's twenty years.

925
00:44:28,199 --> 00:44:28,559
Speaker 3: I guess.

926
00:44:28,559 --> 00:44:30,559
Speaker 4: I turned thirty six at the gold Mine pretty much

927
00:44:30,599 --> 00:44:31,800
almost didn't think about that.

928
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 3: Hell yeah, it's awesome.

929
00:44:34,079 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean that's the way to keep you know,

930
00:44:36,079 --> 00:44:41,000
keep the marriage alive. Some good old school nuts to butts.

931
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:49,639
Speaker 3: You know, it was very fun.

932
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,239
Speaker 5: Now was this your brother's real wedding or the fake wedding?

933
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,039
Speaker 4: The fake wedding that I appreciated, the fake wedding that

934
00:44:56,079 --> 00:44:59,159
I officiated every night they had a bar on site

935
00:44:59,159 --> 00:45:02,239
that every night would just turned into a degenerate grind fest.

936
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,679
Speaker 3: For others or just for you. No, no, no, no, there

937
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,360
were more. There were there were others grindings. Well there

938
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,280
are the grinding gold mine as well. Yeah, we said

939
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:10,840
one of the couple.

940
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,079
Speaker 4: Although I do create a bit of a halo around me,

941
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,840
so I do a lot of you know, movement.

942
00:45:17,079 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think I freaked people out a little

943
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:20,119
bit sometimes.

944
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 10: Trying to uh, you know, they don't want to get hit,

945
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:24,840
I mean, which is fine, that's cool.

946
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:27,639
Speaker 6: I have seen T Bob in that element before he's

947
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,239
telling them lies.

948
00:45:30,119 --> 00:45:32,360
Speaker 3: Didn't get as sweaty as I thought I would, for

949
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:33,000
whatever that's worth.

950
00:45:33,039 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 4: Felt great the next day though. There's nothing better than

951
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,840
just dancing your butt off to really kill a hangover,

952
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,320
Like you can't be hungover because you've you've already.

953
00:45:43,599 --> 00:45:44,519
