WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:08.080 Now here's nick coffee. 2 00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:11.519 All right, five o'clock on a Friday, Let's do it. 3 00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:15.320 We've got a hell of a weekend coming up. I'm 4 00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:17.399 looking here. The college football playoff, of course, starts today 5 00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:19.399 Notre Dame in Indiana, and then we will have the 6 00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:23.079 other three games tomorrow. But there's no snow. I guess 7 00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:24.960 the snow melted they get did they clear it out? 8 00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:26.120 I mean I thought we were going to get a 9 00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:28.600 football game that had snow. I mean maybe. I mean, 10 00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:30.280 I'm looking here, Rick Bose. It's just tweeted out of 11 00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:33.000 a picture about twenty minutes ago. In fact, he's got 12 00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:35.679 a video here too, because he is boots on the 13 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:38.320 ground up there in South Bend covering this for WDRB. 14 00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:42.200 And there's no snow. I mean, there's like some snow 15 00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:44.359 you can see, like on the seats, but maybe it 16 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:46.000 got warm enough to where it melts it or maybe 17 00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.399 they just got rid of it. But that I won't lie. 18 00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.399 That does sort of damp in a little bit of 19 00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:53.000 the of the hype for me. I mean, it's gonna 20 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.520 be a great game, and I'm hoping Indiana can pull 21 00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:56.920 off the upset. But yeah, I was the picture that 22 00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:00.200 Notre Dame football Twitter account posted with the snowman were 23 00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.560 looking the stadium and the field that it just covered 24 00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:06.879 in snow. That was awesome to see, But it feels 25 00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.319 like years ago. Now. Yeah, I guess I don't know. 26 00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:12.560 I guess it. I guess it melted because there's no 27 00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:15.359 I mean, I don't know what the actual temperature is. 28 00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:16.799 In fact, I'm gonna look it up now because I'm 29 00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:19.280 very curious South Bend current temperature. 30 00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:21.280 I mean, when it was snow in earlier, it was 31 00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:24.959 freezing here, and I've noticed it's not as cold as 32 00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:26.400 it was, but it was wendy too, so. 33 00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:30.599 The highest thirty two. So maybe that just got it 34 00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:32.760 to I don't know, who knows, but either way should 35 00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:34.400 be a I mean, I hope it's a good game, 36 00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:36.920 and I'm hoping Indiana wins. But I think the Hoosiers, 37 00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:38.680 understandably so, are a tough team for a lot of 38 00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:40.319 people to figure out. But if you just now joined in, 39 00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:42.359 I just I think I talked about it in the 40 00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:45.120 four o'clock hour. I think if you were wanting and 41 00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:46.680 maybe you just don't want to, I don't know, but 42 00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:50.480 if you were wanting to believe Indiana could could could 43 00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:53.280 pull off an upset and get one win in this playoff. 44 00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:56.719 If you're somebody that wants to believe that Notre Dames 45 00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.879 of fraud, and you hope they get embarrassed, because anytime 46 00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:01.920 they make any playoff championship, two team, four team, twelve team, 47 00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:04.200 they get embarrassed. I just feel like the Indiana is 48 00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:05.680 the kind of team you could believe that would do 49 00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:09.000 it in Indiana. You know, regardless if they lose tonight, 50 00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:10.319 they still were a good team this year. And I 51 00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.599 hate that for Indiana fans because they truly could lose 52 00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:16.719 tonight in a close game and have no win. We're 53 00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:20.400 speaking of as far as, like you know, resume signature 54 00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:23.240 a team that you beat that other people think is good. 55 00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:26.919 But it still wouldn't take away the fact that they 56 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:32.080 just would have gone eleven and two and you know, 57 00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:34.039 one of the best seasons they'll ever have. I mean, 58 00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:35.960 like I would hate that. You know, I guess more 59 00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:37.400 than you can't control the people are gonna say what 60 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:39.360 they're gonna say, you have literally no control over it. 61 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:42.960 But I know a win here against Notre Dame would 62 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.520 would actually solidify the Hoosiers to a lot of people 63 00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.759 and you know, people can act like they don't care 64 00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:50.560 about that kind of stuff, but you do, right. I mean, 65 00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:55.000 like the same people who who try to like get 66 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:58.439 their fan base to really embrace us against the world, 67 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.039 We don't care what anybody thinks, when I know you 68 00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:04.120 do care, Like that's why you're saying us against the world, 69 00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.120 because you think everybody's out to get you, and really 70 00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:09.680 they don't. They're not that worried about you. But anyways, 71 00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:12.000 we'll get back into these matchups this weekend coming up shortly. 72 00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:15.000 I do want to once again give props to Danny 73 00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.360 buspom Kelly and the Louisville volleyball team as they have 74 00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:20.680 advanced to the national championship game and the way that 75 00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:24.240 thing played out last night was awesome. I mean it was. 76 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.560 Volleyball itself has become so awesome to watch on TV. 77 00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:29.840 I don't seek it out, but if it's on, I'll 78 00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:32.479 find myself locked in. And of course when Louisville volleyball 79 00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:35.240 is in a big match with a really good team 80 00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:36.759 like you know, the postseason, like they've been, I mean, 81 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:38.599 it's it's something that even if I'm not in front 82 00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:39.840 of a TV like I had it on my phone 83 00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:41.800 last night watching at the dinner table with my wife. 84 00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:44.120 She was a volleyball player herself in high school, so 85 00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:46.479 we were watching and it was exciting. But then once 86 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:48.680 we left to leave dinner to go to put shak, 87 00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:50.400 which was a lot of fun. By the way, we 88 00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:52.719 had it or they had it on the TV as 89 00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:54.879 soon as we got there, and I was following and 90 00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:57.159 you know, keeping up with it throughout. But when I 91 00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.120 left the restaurant, it was like, yeah, you know this 92 00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.000 this man. I didn't well be because Pittsburgh's already beat 93 00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:02.800 you twice. They're really really good. Of the number one 94 00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:04.520 overall seed in the country for a reason, and they 95 00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:07.439 were playing really well. But then man Louisville caught a 96 00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.919 run and ran away with it. I mean just really 97 00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:13.039 just kind of took over and it was it was 98 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:14.879 awesome to see. We also played some sound earlier. If 99 00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:16.560 you missed it, you can check out on the podcast 100 00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:20.680 Pat Kelsey talking about just you know, not only given 101 00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:24.759 props and praise to Danny buspom Kelly in the volleyball program, 102 00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:27.839 but I mean he's become like a super fan and 103 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:30.160 you know, you could tell it's genuine that's not just 104 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:31.879 somebody who wanted to come to a press conference and 105 00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:34.680 say congrats ladies, best of luck to you. Go get it. 106 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:37.079 He was breaking down the game and think trying to 107 00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:40.839 think of nicknames for players, and just really really good 108 00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:43.399 stuff to see from you know when it and I 109 00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:45.160 also talked about this a little bit earlier as well. 110 00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.920 When you have your coaches on campus all supporting one another, 111 00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:52.519 kind of sharing good positive energy, that doesn't mean anything 112 00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:54.399 when it comes to like winning, like you got to win, 113 00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:56.480 and this won't correlate to like I mean, I guess 114 00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:59.199 it could be healthy for your program, but it certainly 115 00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:01.519 can only help you when it comes to like your 116 00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:03.959 fans and your your base, right when they see other 117 00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:08.360 coaches supporting other programs within the university. Uh, and it's legit, 118 00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:12.120 it's genuine, like that's that's what you want, all right. Uh, 119 00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:14.839 let's see, I want to go to text line by 120 00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:16.800 way two six five three zero seven ninety is the 121 00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.560 number if you guys would like to would like to 122 00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:22.160 text in. And I didn't plan to go back here, 123 00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:25.800 but here we are, so I don't even remember how 124 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:27.600 it got started. Oh yeah, I was talking about my 125 00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:30.000 wife because she's prepared she's prepared the home today because 126 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.720 we are we are hosting a Christmas event tonight with 127 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:35.079 her side of the family, my in laws looking forward 128 00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:36.959 to having them. And you know, she took the day 129 00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:39.680 off work and she's been cleaning the house, mopping the floors, 130 00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:42.519 I mean, making sure the house is in as best 131 00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:44.839 shape as possible. And I was just kind of saying, 132 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.000 you know, I was kind of saying, how whenever she's 133 00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:48.560 in that mode, I just try to stay out of 134 00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:50.920 her way, because you know, she's it's a very serious 135 00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:53.199 thing for her. I feel like if I'm near her 136 00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:55.600 and she's cleaning up something that she feels like is 137 00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:59.519 dirty because of me, Like you know, then you know, 138 00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:01.680 maybe the twoilet seed or something like that, or like 139 00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.759 when I leave my beer cans in the shower, like 140 00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:06.839 you know, she I just don't want to be near 141 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:09.000 her where she can either hit me or you know, 142 00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:11.000 yell at me, because you know, she's right, I shouldn't 143 00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:12.600 leave beer cans in the shower. But what you know, 144 00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:14.199 I'm a man. 145 00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:16.160 I guess the gut to do. 146 00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:17.879 Yeah, So she just gets in her zone. And I 147 00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:19.360 was telling, you know, it's telling. I was just talking 148 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:21.160 about how you know, I stay out of her way, 149 00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:24.480 and you know, she's great, she's she's awesome. And somebody 150 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:25.920 texted in and said, hey, Nick, can you help me 151 00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:28.879 help me out with this? I called my wife a 152 00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:30.759 trophy wife and she hit me upside the head and 153 00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:33.000 I thought I was giving her a compliment. And I 154 00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:36.360 think she thinks I insulted her. And he wanted me to, like, 155 00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:39.120 I guess say he won, but I had to, you know, 156 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.759 trust the good old fashioned Google machine. And apparently trophy 157 00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:45.600 wife is a it is seen as something that can 158 00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:48.839 be viewed as here's what it says. A trophy wife 159 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:50.800 as a wife who is seen as a status symbol 160 00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:53.680 for her husband, often in a derogatory way. Well, we 161 00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:57.000 have a woman who has texted him and said, I 162 00:06:57.040 --> 00:07:00.240 think you got it right. I wouldn't necessarily say derogatory, 163 00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.319 but if my husband referred to me as his trophy wife, 164 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:06.319 I would assume he's referring to me as his possession 165 00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.639 and not really valuing me as a human being. Well, 166 00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:14.560 I hear you. I mean I've learned about this today 167 00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:16.600 because I don't I don't use that phray. I've never 168 00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:18.720 called my wife my trophy wife. I've never thought about it, 169 00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:20.800 but if I did, I would think I was being 170 00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:23.040 nice and here I would be acting like my wife 171 00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:25.519 is my possession and not a human being that you 172 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:28.720 know has feelings and you know I love. How about 173 00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:30.240 don't say we don't help you out on here, fel 174 00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:31.959 I mean, maybe you guys all realize it's not something 175 00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:33.920 you should you should say to your wife, and and 176 00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:36.120 we're the ones learning on the fly here that you 177 00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:38.560 know we don't that we shouldn't say that. But are 178 00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:40.319 you with me? I mean, Austin, did you ever if 179 00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:43.800 you heard somebody refer to a woman as a trophy wife, 180 00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:45.720 or a husband refer to his wife as a trophy wife, 181 00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.920 would you have thought that that meant like would you 182 00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:50.279 have thought that it was derogatory? 183 00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:51.399 No? 184 00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:54.839 I mean, now hearing like the actual definition of it, 185 00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:55.800 I can't understand. 186 00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:57.399 I thought I knew the definition, but I didn't. 187 00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:00.639 I just I just always kind of thought, maybe that's 188 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.720 because I'm not smart anyways, But you're just calling like 189 00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:08.199 your wife a trophy, like trophies are good, yeah, nice 190 00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:10.000 and shiny, something that I want. 191 00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:11.920 Yeah, something that everybody wanted but you got. 192 00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:14.800 But I guess it's something that they probably. I guess 193 00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:17.519 under that context, it's like someone that you you show 194 00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:19.480 off and that is just for you to like, I 195 00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:20.160 don't I don't know. 196 00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.040 I guess maybe it can be viewed as like you're 197 00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:23.879 you're it's only for the looks, but at the end 198 00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:26.480 of the day, like it's still a compliment, you know 199 00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:29.360 what I mean, Like you can be a trophy because 200 00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:32.360 I think you're hot and you're awesome and I love 201 00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:34.159 showing you off. But like it doesn't mean I don't 202 00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:36.200 value you and your feelings and you as a human. 203 00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:39.840 I mean, like attraction is is is at least a component. 204 00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:41.840 In fact, it's a major component when it comes to 205 00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:44.840 a lot of relationships. As we continue this this uh 206 00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:49.159 romantic you know, dating type show, which is not really 207 00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:50.720 what we're trying to do. But here we are Austin. 208 00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:52.480 You got you, you got engaged with the weekend. You 209 00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:55.759 asked the question. She said, yes, we congratulated you. Did 210 00:08:55.759 --> 00:08:58.879 you ever have any any like was there ever a 211 00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:04.519 moment where you who were worried like what She'd say, No, 212 00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:06.360 not when you bought the ring and knew you were 213 00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:08.759 doing it. You thought there was no scenario, she'd say, no, 214 00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:09.440 correct yes. 215 00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:11.720 I think I was more worried that she might not 216 00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:14.679 think that the timing and everything the surrounding was as 217 00:09:14.799 --> 00:09:16.639 romantic and everything that she wanted. 218 00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:16.720 It to be. 219 00:09:17.080 --> 00:09:19.919 Yeah. And the reason I ask is because once I 220 00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:24.279 saw your big news, I was thinking, I like, there's 221 00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:26.840 no like I was gonna say, like she said yes, congrats. 222 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:28.399 But then I thought, like a lot of people still 223 00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:30.200 say that, like she said yes. I mean, technically she 224 00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:32.440 does have to say yes. Yeah. But I think like 225 00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:35.600 now this day and age, ninety nine percent of men 226 00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:39.360 at any age that are proposing drop into the knee. 227 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:43.200 They've bought the ring. They're doing it because they one 228 00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.600 know she's gonna say yes and wants to get married, 229 00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:49.399 or maybe they've been pressured to propose for a while. 230 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:52.720 Not saying either of those things were your situation, but like, 231 00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.039 I don't know a guy that has ever been told 232 00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:59.039 no when proposing. I know it's happened, and I really 233 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:01.240 can't envision. I just feel like you'd have to have 234 00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:03.799 like a I don't know, like I feel like you 235 00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:06.159 have a really bad read on your partner if you 236 00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:08.399 were proposing and they say no right exactly. 237 00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:10.840 You know, I've seen the videos as someone proposing at 238 00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:14.440 like I guess not so ideal situations like at games 239 00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:16.759 and stuff, and then the girls sitting there going like no, no, 240 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:18.759 like get off your knee and stuff like that. But 241 00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:22.919 I'd never ran into or experienced being friends with anybody 242 00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:25.120 that has like got down on one knee and was 243 00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:29.480 ready to risk that moment and them just be like no, 244 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.279 not right now. I know that would be pretty embarrassing. 245 00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:35.159 I've gotten I know people who've gotten engaged and then 246 00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:37.960 the wedding was off. Yes, that and that can be 247 00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:41.320 a variety of things, obviously, but maybe like maybe the girl, 248 00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:44.120 because I think this is there's a better chance the 249 00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.519 girl says yes and then like then she tries to 250 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:48.240 figure out how she can get out of it than 251 00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:49.720 her telling you if it would take a lot to 252 00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:51.759 tell me if you're just being honest, you're being honest. Yeah, 253 00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:55.000 But if somebody's on one knee and they're asking you 254 00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:57.039 to to to marry, I mean, I know, I know, 255 00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:00.200 I know girls who have said yes to like I mean, 256 00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:02.039 I don't mean in high school, I knew a few 257 00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:05.320 girls that that I'm pretty sure they said yes to 258 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:06.639 their prom day because they didn't have the hard to 259 00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:07.960 say no they didn't really want to go with them. 260 00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:10.559 They were like dating. I mean, if you can't say 261 00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:12.039 no to a prom date because you feel like they 262 00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:13.879 would let them down, imagine. I mean again, marriage is 263 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:15.879 much bit different and much bigger than going to prom. 264 00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.639 But I feel like it would just be hard to 265 00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:21.279 tell somebody no. But hey, if you're being honest, at least. 266 00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:21.559 You're you know. 267 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:25.720 And I also feel like if you've proposed once and 268 00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:28.519 they still want to be with you but they don't 269 00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:30.399 want to get married, or they just say they don't 270 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:33.039 want to get married yet, like you ain't going back 271 00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:34.919 on one knee again, right, Like you can't take it 272 00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:38.159 imentually taking it twice, that would be really really it'd 273 00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:40.639 be really, really tough. I think for most dudes, when 274 00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:43.879 you think about proposing, you think about how can I 275 00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.840 pull off the proposal the best way. It's not about 276 00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:48.399 the worry of yes or no. It's like, well, she 277 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:51.320 think this was a sweet way? Will she be surprised 278 00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:53.919 that kind of stuff? Was your fiance? 279 00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:54.279 Now? 280 00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.840 Was she surprised? Yes, she was? She was. 281 00:11:57.679 --> 00:11:59.480 I think she had She told me she had an 282 00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:02.960 idea was going to be that weekend either that or 283 00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:05.120 was going to be on Christmas morning, And to be honest, 284 00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:07.279 I never even thought about the Christmas morning thing. I 285 00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:09.919 think that would have been cool too, but the area 286 00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:12.039 that we were at was a little bit more romantic, 287 00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.159 and obviously we had a person there to like help 288 00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.279 kind of like record it coordinated. Yeah, I had had 289 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:19.279 to smarten the guy up. 290 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:23.639 Well, congratulations once again. Did you tell your family ahead 291 00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:23.919 of time? 292 00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:27.480 I told h Well, my dad kind of helped me 293 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:32.480 co sign for the ring, so I had to get 294 00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:32.879 a loan. 295 00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:34.159 For the ring. He knew, he knew. 296 00:12:34.759 --> 00:12:37.480 He told me sadly not to tell my mom because 297 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.000 my mom would have overthought and freaked out. He thought 298 00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:42.399 that she would have said something like said something to 299 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:45.840 her and spoiled the surprise. And so I told my 300 00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.559 mom the day before. And I don't know if this 301 00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:51.440 is still a thing, dude, Like, do people still ask 302 00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:54.879 like the father for permission? Did you have to do that? 303 00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:57.720 So I don't know if it's still a thing. I 304 00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:59.960 don't know that I had to. I don't believe my 305 00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:03.519 father in law would have thought anything of it if 306 00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.279 I didn't, but I but I did just and just 307 00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:08.799 told him and and it was pretty straightforward, and that's 308 00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:11.039 what it was. I feel like, man for for if 309 00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:13.600 that's still a thing, which I wouldn't be surprised if 310 00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.759 it's not. If that's still a thing, I can see 311 00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:19.799 that being a you know, maybe not like something you're 312 00:13:19.799 --> 00:13:22.039 worried is gonna say no. I would imagine if you're 313 00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:23.840 going to propose to a woman and you feel like 314 00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:25.720 she's gonna say yes, and you probably have somewhat of 315 00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:27.679 a relationship with her father, it's probably not going to 316 00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:30.039 be totally surprised. But like, that's that's a that's more 317 00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:31.679 of a nerve wrecking thing for me than anything else. 318 00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:33.840 I sure not about is she gonna say yes or no? 319 00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:35.159 But like what's what's her dad gonna say? 320 00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:35.639 Yeah? 321 00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:37.879 But yeah, I don't know if it's if it's when 322 00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:42.320 my sister, When my sister was proposed to uh, I'm 323 00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:45.519 pretty sure the first thing she said was not yes 324 00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:49.320 or no, but did you ask my dad? And that's 325 00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:52.480 such a her thing. But I kind of again, I 326 00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:54.519 don't know a lot of people that have gotten married recently, 327 00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:56.200 and the people that I do know that have been 328 00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:59.360 married somewhat recently, they've been together a really long time. 329 00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:03.600 So like it could be more of a formal like actually, 330 00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:05.279 it could be more of a formal like I'm not asking, 331 00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.039 but I'm telling you. You know what I mean, right, because 332 00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:09.720 like when you're when you're very very much grow like 333 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:15.799 when you're you're in your thirties, like you don't need permission. Yeah, 334 00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:17.960 So again it's more of a formality of like letting 335 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:21.120 you know, no baby dad said no. Sorry. 336 00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:22.000 Yeah. 337 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:24.840 I mean, like maybe next time we didn't clean room. 338 00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:27.080 Maybe if you really really like I want to be 339 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:28.879 with a woman, but you don't want to make that commitment, 340 00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:31.720 maybe you can just like get on her dad's bad 341 00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:34.240 side and just blame it all on him like I 342 00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:36.480 would ask you, but you know, could be cool with it. 343 00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:37.080 That's it. 344 00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:39.159 That's the easy way out. Guys. If you're in one 345 00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:41.559 of those relationships where you're kind of finding it hard 346 00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:44.000 to break off, just piss off their dad and then 347 00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:45.519 try to ask them can I marry camera. 348 00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:48.000 That'll speed up the process to end it. I believe, 349 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.559 I really do, really organic all right. Uh so, before 350 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:54.799 we get back into the college football playof stuff, which 351 00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:56.320 I want to talk about these matchups in our final 352 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:57.559 segment coming up here. On the other side. We are 353 00:14:57.559 --> 00:14:59.519 going to be a little bit earlier today, uh, because 354 00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:01.799 we've got I think some women's basketball coming up. But 355 00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:04.759 when it comes to Louisville basketball tomorrow, a couple of 356 00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:07.279 people have asked about tray Ora if he's gonna play. 357 00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:09.440 I think Pat Kelsey actually might have said word for 358 00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:11.279 word that he knows tray Orra is not playing against 359 00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:13.639 Florida State tomorrow. But I wouldn't be shocked if he's 360 00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:15.720 back against North Carolina. I think that there's a real 361 00:15:15.759 --> 00:15:18.840 possibility that could happen, maybe even Eku, which I think 362 00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:21.519 that game is before Carolina. I think it is. Let 363 00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:24.600 me double check here, Yeah, you play. So you got 364 00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:26.679 two straight weeks with no games during the week obviously 365 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:28.200 I had the week off this week, and then they 366 00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:30.279 will not play again until next Saturday when they do 367 00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:33.600 play Eku. So maybe that's when he is back. And 368 00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:37.960 I'm a little worried that that. Well, honey, people probably 369 00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:40.840 don't even have that high of an opinion on on 370 00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:43.919 trail Ray because he was one of the bigger names 371 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:46.480 you heard about that did decide to transfer here to Louisville. 372 00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:48.960 He wasn't you know, the level of a prior or 373 00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:51.519 a chucky Hepburn or even a korin Johnson. He's a 374 00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:53.480 nice piece. I was always really high on him, and 375 00:15:53.519 --> 00:15:55.399 he did not necessarily live up to that in the 376 00:15:55.399 --> 00:15:57.559 first couple of games we saw. So what I was 377 00:15:57.600 --> 00:15:59.159 getting ready to say is I'm worry about like maybe 378 00:15:59.159 --> 00:16:01.519 I'm maybe I'm hyping him up too much, but I 379 00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:03.879 just I just think a guy that you know can 380 00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:06.799 defend and that you know can rebound and is another 381 00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:08.919 body like that alone is going to help you. Now 382 00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:10.320 how much it's going to help you, I'm not sure, 383 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.000 but like anything you get from him is better than 384 00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:14.759 which is a good thing because he's not been available 385 00:16:14.759 --> 00:16:17.639 and you are very very thin. So I'm kind of 386 00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:21.480 I'm kind of cautiously optimistic that this guy could really 387 00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:25.639 change some things for you because he's in If you 388 00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:28.759 go back and look at his stats at Long Beach State, 389 00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:31.519 I mean, he was kind of a jack of all trades, 390 00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:34.080 a guy who really stuffed the stat sheet, but he 391 00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:38.399 made his biggest impact doing everything but scoring. However he 392 00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:41.279 did he did actually score. I mean, he was a 393 00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:42.799 guy that I mean, and I'm trying to pull up 394 00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:46.559 his stats here, but at Long Beach State, cater Treo 395 00:16:46.720 --> 00:16:49.039 ra Here's his stat line what he averaged, because it's 396 00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:52.759 really a rare stat line. Twelve points, eight and a 397 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:55.279 half rebounds, in four and a half assists. He also 398 00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:59.039 had a triple double in two games last season. And 399 00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:01.919 this is a six foot four five forward. Like I 400 00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:04.440 don't I wouldn't call him a guard, but then again, 401 00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:05.880
