Speaker 1: In the Sports page with The Orlando Sentinel at FM
Speaker 1: ninety six to nine the Games, Mike the Bulldog beyond
Speaker 1: You on JR.
Speaker 2: All Right, we got the Bulldog on the horns, So
Speaker 2: Magic dork twe last night. They got to put that
Speaker 2: behind him, as they're right back at it tonight in
Speaker 2: San Antonio.
Speaker 3: Doggy. Yeah.
Speaker 4: It's not often the team loses when the opponent scores
Speaker 4: ninety six points or less, but the Magic are the
Speaker 4: worst scoring offensive team in the league. They've scored ninety
Speaker 4: points or less nine times this year. I think that
Speaker 4: leads the league. By the way, I'm so frustrated with
Speaker 4: the Magic. I mean, they get a little momentum and
Speaker 4: then they fall back into their same routine of not
Speaker 4: being able to score again. These guys score less than
Speaker 4: shot Doctor used to score there. They're just they can't
Speaker 4: put the ball in the basket. Palo Bancaro, even though
Speaker 4: he had twenty six points last night, one of eight
Speaker 4: from beyond the ark. The Franz a Franz Wagner, he
Speaker 4: had over twenty points last night, but one of seven
Speaker 4: from downtown. They cannot shoot the three, and they cannot
Speaker 4: score enough points. They are tied for last in the
Speaker 4: league in scoring with the Brooklyn Nets. So yeah, I
Speaker 4: realized they play good defense, but you're not gonna win
Speaker 4: basketball games if you can't score well.
Speaker 1: They had strung some before, strung some together before this.
Speaker 1: It don't be too hard of the guys.
Speaker 4: Hey, you were eighty seven points. That's that's just not
Speaker 4: getting it done.
Speaker 1: Kind of like a high school game.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So, by the way, speaking of basketball, I know
Speaker 4: you guys being big UCF fans, and you see if
Speaker 4: alumnus and all you're gonna you're ready for the first
Speaker 4: ever college basketball Crown Tournament. You see if tips off
Speaker 4: that tonight, you guys ready for it.
Speaker 2: Didn't even know that was a thing.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm what he talks You guys are big ucfns.
Speaker 4: You don't know the UCFS tipping off against Oregon State tonight.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: Today five thirty pm in the CBC, it's called it's
Speaker 4: the first ever CBC tournament. It's in Vegas. It's essentially
Speaker 4: a Fox Sports created event so Fox Sports can have
Speaker 4: some program.
Speaker 2: How many teams are in this?
Speaker 4: This is a sixteen team, single elimination tournament started last
Speaker 4: night in Vegas, and the Knights have their opening game tonight.
Speaker 4: It's sort of like I think, it's sort of like
Speaker 4: the UFL. It's you know, you know, Fox created the
Speaker 4: UFL so they could have content. They've also created this
Speaker 4: basketball tournament because they don't have the NCAA basketball tournament.
Speaker 4: So it's essentially for the It's essentially for betters, I
Speaker 4: think the bet On basketball while they're waiting waiting on
Speaker 4: the final four.
Speaker 1: Now, Pat didn't know about it, but I bored the
Speaker 1: team jet right after the showdow.
Speaker 2: Oh, we'll have a nice trip out to Vegas. The
Speaker 2: women's final four is set Bulldog after last night's games.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Paige Becker of Yukon thirty one points. She leads
Speaker 4: Yukon to a seventy eight sixty four win over USC. Now,
Speaker 4: USC was the number one seed, but they lost their
Speaker 4: star player Juju Watkins to an ACL injury earlier in
Speaker 4: the tournament. So Yukon the powerhouse, historical powerhouse in college basketball.
Speaker 4: They're going to the Final four for the seventeen sixteenth
Speaker 4: time in the last seventeen years Yukon in the Final four.
Speaker 4: They will take on UCLA on Friday in one of
Speaker 4: the semifinals, and then the other semifinal will be an
Speaker 4: All SEC semifinal. Texas, which beat TCU last night. They're
Speaker 4: going to play South Carolina and.
Speaker 2: Those games are in Tampa, Tampa, if you want to
Speaker 2: go over there.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm actually going to San Antonio for the Final
Speaker 4: four this weekend.
Speaker 3: So are you? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Nice?
Speaker 4: By the way, you mentioned yesterday you were talking about
Speaker 4: the Yankees and all the home runs they hit these
Speaker 4: torpedo bats are using. Have you guys been reading about these? Ye? Yes,
Speaker 4: I mean these torpedo bats are amazing.
Speaker 3: I guess some some M I. T.
Speaker 4: Physicists came up with this bad idea where he the
Speaker 4: bats look like bowling pins, and.
Speaker 3: They've moved the the main.
Speaker 4: Mass of the wood like like eight eight inches below
Speaker 4: the actual tip of the bats. So these so they're
Speaker 4: generating a lot more power because that's where the balls
Speaker 4: mainly hit.
Speaker 3: So the Yankees have have I guess.
Speaker 4: They're the ones who sort of started this, but other
Speaker 4: teams are starting to use them as well.
Speaker 1: You see that, I Judge said, I don't need that.
Speaker 1: He's not using it, Aaron Judge.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he wasn't one of the Yankees that used it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's still hit four home runs in three games.
Speaker 2: As yesterday, they'll have to start building new stadiums with
Speaker 2: the center field six hundred feet out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this will be these torpedo bats. They'll be like
Speaker 4: the tush push in football.
Speaker 2: Which, Hey, there's a serious talk they may ban that
Speaker 2: plague with the NFL owners meetings here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're going down owners meetings going on in West
Speaker 4: Palm right now. In fact, Brandon Kravitz of our station
Speaker 4: is down there covering that. So yeah, that's the big
Speaker 4: The big controversy is will they ban the tush push
Speaker 4: because the Eagles have perfected it and no other team
Speaker 4: has quite frankly.
Speaker 1: Well, the Bills are pretty damn good at it too,
Speaker 1: because they have the machine that is Josh.
Speaker 3: How although.
Speaker 4: Sean McDermott, the Bills coach, he's one of the ones
Speaker 4: who's pushing to have it outlawed, believe it or not,
Speaker 4: even though the Bills use it the second most of
Speaker 4: any other team.
Speaker 1: On the Eagles, I heard yesterday they're talking about the
Speaker 1: angle they're going to do away with it.
Speaker 3: The angle that.
Speaker 1: They're taking is that they're worried about injuries.
Speaker 3: Oh Jesus, I guess it's football.
Speaker 1: Let him do a toush push if you have the
Speaker 1: equipment and the guys to do that.
Speaker 3: Injuries. No, they're worried about the Eagles winning the Super Bowls.
Speaker 2: If you don't like to play, try to figure it
Speaker 2: out on your own, and if not, try to figure
Speaker 2: out how to stop it.
Speaker 4: Well, not every not every team, though, has a quarterback
Speaker 4: like Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 3: This guy can squat like eight hundred pounds.
Speaker 4: I guess, I guess the success of the tush push
Speaker 4: is Jalen Hurts, like you know, when he crashes him
Speaker 4: into line, he has such leg strength that he can
Speaker 4: you know, he can surge ahead like Most quarterbacks can't
Speaker 4: squat eight hundred pounds like Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 1: But they shouldn't be penalized for that. In my eyes.
Speaker 3: Sorry, you paid a lot of money for a.
Speaker 2: Good teams going back in the day saying Earl Campbell's
Speaker 2: thighs were too big, he might hurt you when he
Speaker 2: runs over. You know, a good lord, all right? Lightning
