<v Speaker 3>It's one of my favorite Eddie Money songs.

6
00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:10.519
<v Speaker 1>Eddie Money's pretty good to me some water.

7
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:13.800
<v Speaker 4>We were in Toronto when he died and we got

8
00:00:13.800 --> 00:00:16.160
<v Speaker 4>the news and we listened to it all. They were

9
00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:17.960
<v Speaker 4>doing a documentary on him on the radio all the

10
00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:18.640
<v Speaker 4>way back from Trap.

11
00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:22.280
<v Speaker 2>It was it wasn't expected, right like you Yeah, yeah,

12
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:23.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean it was in ill health, but nobody talking.

13
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 1>About you die. Yeah great, So any money a legend, yep,

14
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:27.559
<v Speaker 1>no doubt.

15
00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:30.199
<v Speaker 2>All right, So we will talk with Rory on Neil

16
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:31.960
<v Speaker 2>of NBC News coming up a little bit later on

17
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:33.840
<v Speaker 2>this morning, and get the latest on what is going

18
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:37.359
<v Speaker 2>on in California. Los Angeles, of course, is getting the

19
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:40.280
<v Speaker 2>majority of the attention for obvious reasons as far as

20
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:44.520
<v Speaker 2>the protests that are going on that probably won't die

21
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:48.320
<v Speaker 2>down anytime soon, but maybe I'm wrong, But again, we'll

22
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:52.000
<v Speaker 2>get the latest when it comes to what's happening. It's

23
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:54.280
<v Speaker 2>not just LA, it's also San Francisco. And then you're

24
00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:58.000
<v Speaker 2>also seeing protests happen in other places, including right here

25
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:02.520
<v Speaker 2>in Louisville. It happened yesterday downtown at the Massoli Federal

26
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:05.640
<v Speaker 2>Building near Metro Hall as well, and it was peaceful.

27
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:11.040
<v Speaker 2>A lot of members there were from the Metro Metro

28
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:14.239
<v Speaker 2>Council members, a couple of them folks from from BLM,

29
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:17.439
<v Speaker 2>different community members. And I think you're going to see

30
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 2>this continue probably here and and a lot of different

31
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:25.799
<v Speaker 2>places across the country. And seven hundred US Marines from

32
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:28.959
<v Speaker 2>Camp Pendleton have been deployed to LA to support the

33
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:33.719
<v Speaker 2>federal federal efforts here amid these violent protests and riots.

34
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:34.280
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

35
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 1>And again, I know there's some that see see.

36
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:38.480
<v Speaker 2>What they want to see, I suppose when it comes

37
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.799
<v Speaker 2>to coverage footage rather it be photo video of what's

38
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 2>going on. But yeah, the there's the amount of of

39
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:49.120
<v Speaker 2>the amount of people from the National Guard as well

40
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:50.519
<v Speaker 2>as the Marines. I mean, I think that tells you

41
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:53.519
<v Speaker 2>that that they're they're prepared to continue to have some

42
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:56.760
<v Speaker 2>real pushback as far as those that are protesting the

43
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:01.719
<v Speaker 2>the immigration situation and the Trump Internet fight. I mean,

44
00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:03.480
<v Speaker 2>that's what it feels like to me, that it's another

45
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:05.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's not just playing out on them. It is

46
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:07.799
<v Speaker 2>playing out on the internet. But you know it's also

47
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:11.039
<v Speaker 2>not just on the internet. But last week it was

48
00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:14.319
<v Speaker 2>Elon Musk, and this week it is it is Gavin Newsom,

49
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.000
<v Speaker 2>who of course is the governor of California. Who Trump

50
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:20.400
<v Speaker 2>is is. I mean, what's the right way to word it.

51
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:22.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he's he's threaten to arrest him. He threated

52
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.199
<v Speaker 2>to arrest the governor of California, which is not something

53
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:28.120
<v Speaker 2>that you see very often, but here we are.

54
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean, can he do that? That's my question.

55
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:33.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I think a lot of folks are asking

56
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:37.120
<v Speaker 2>the same the same kind of thing. So this is

57
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:38.879
<v Speaker 2>not a surprise, I think, to some to see that

58
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:40.520
<v Speaker 2>these two guys are on the same page when it

59
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:43.159
<v Speaker 2>comes to this kind of stuff. But Newsom is called

60
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:48.000
<v Speaker 2>the deployment unconstitutional and inflammatory, claiming local police had the

61
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:51.599
<v Speaker 2>situation under control. And he's also suing the Trump administration

62
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:55.680
<v Speaker 2>alleging a violation of state sovereignty. So that's the disconnect,

63
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:59.960
<v Speaker 2>is that you've got law enforcement there in LA claiming

64
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:03.120
<v Speaker 2>that they were overwhelmed to an extent I'm paraphrasing. But

65
00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:06.319
<v Speaker 2>then you have Newsom saying that it was under control

66
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:10.439
<v Speaker 2>and this wasn't needed. So Trump then suggested that Newsom

67
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:14.479
<v Speaker 2>could be arrested for gross incompetence. His press secretary said

68
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Newsom risks arrest if he if he obstructs federal law enforcement,

69
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:19.960
<v Speaker 2>though no plans are confirmed.

70
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:22.439
<v Speaker 1>Once the mention of a potential.

71
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 2>Arrest threat of arrest, I suppose uh. Newsom then fired

72
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:29.199
<v Speaker 2>back on social media, daring Trump's borders are Tom Holman

73
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:33.000
<v Speaker 2>to arrest him. So that's that's where we are. It's uh,

74
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:35.879
<v Speaker 2>it's it's one of those things that again I just

75
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:38.520
<v Speaker 2>throw it in that that mixed bag of things that

76
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:41.199
<v Speaker 2>that you can't you can't make it up.

77
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's well.

78
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:44.439
<v Speaker 3>We've got to see how you know, and you see

79
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:45.680
<v Speaker 3>how fast things can change.

80
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:48.639
<v Speaker 4>We went just yesterday we were talking about you know,

81
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.479
<v Speaker 4>Trump and eedon Musk and now it's Trump and Newsom

82
00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:53.120
<v Speaker 4>and same with the protests.

83
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:55.199
<v Speaker 3>You know, these these are going to run their course

84
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:56.080
<v Speaker 3>as they should.

85
00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:58.240
<v Speaker 4>And I love the fact that we here in Louisville

86
00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.599
<v Speaker 4>are able to come out peacefully. We had members from

87
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:04.919
<v Speaker 4>all different avenues that come out, even maybe the folks

88
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 4>that support President Trump here can come out and speak

89
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 4>their mind, but do it in a peaceful manner. And

90
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:13.759
<v Speaker 4>so we don't repeat what we saw obviously during the

91
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:18.079
<v Speaker 4>Breonna Taylor cases down here. But also at the same time,

92
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:21.160
<v Speaker 4>you know people being able to exercise their voice, and

93
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.040
<v Speaker 4>I think Louisville, if you can hold your head high

94
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:25.360
<v Speaker 4>in that respect and make sure that.

95
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.120
<v Speaker 3>We maintain this course.

96
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:29.360
<v Speaker 4>But as we've seen in protests like this, it takes

97
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:32.160
<v Speaker 4>one person to kind of throw things for a loop

98
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:33.759
<v Speaker 4>and somebody gets a little old.

99
00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:36.240
<v Speaker 2>Because that one person could then shift it from being

100
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:41.040
<v Speaker 2>excessful to being everything. But yeah, and these protests are

101
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:43.720
<v Speaker 2>not that uncommon really at all, especially in the last

102
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, decade or so. But what really seems to

103
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:52.240
<v Speaker 2>stand out currently is that you've got I think you've got.

104
00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:54.639
<v Speaker 2>It's not just about the immigration I mean, I think

105
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:57.759
<v Speaker 2>that's clearly what obviously the Trump administration's trying to get

106
00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:01.279
<v Speaker 2>under control, and there's clearly people protesting that they don't

107
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:03.160
<v Speaker 2>like the way they're going about it as far as

108
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 2>the immigration plan. But to me, there's the local control

109
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:11.040
<v Speaker 2>versus federal muscle fight here, right Like Gavin Newson was claiming, look,

110
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:13.560
<v Speaker 2>we've got this, we don't need you. Yeah, you've overstepped

111
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:17.839
<v Speaker 2>your you've overstepped your bounds. Whereas President Trump obviously sees

112
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:20.959
<v Speaker 2>it differently and is taking action and sticking with what

113
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:23.199
<v Speaker 2>he what he wants to do. So that's the fight.

114
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:26.399
<v Speaker 2>It's local control versus federal muscle here. That's the new

115
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:29.319
<v Speaker 2>layer to this situation, which is again, protests aren't that

116
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:30.199
<v Speaker 2>uncommon anymore.

117
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.519
<v Speaker 4>No, it's traditionally, you know, the right is all for

118
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:37.040
<v Speaker 4>give it more local control to the states, to local communities,

119
00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:38.759
<v Speaker 4>and maybe we're seeing kind.

120
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:40.199
<v Speaker 3>Of a flip at the script in this new day

121
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:40.600
<v Speaker 3>and age.

122
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:42.680
<v Speaker 2>Yep, all right, we've got another update of traffic and

123
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.199
<v Speaker 2>weather coming your way. It is Kentucky and His Morning

124
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.560
<v Speaker 2>News with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight forty whas

125
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:51.959
<v Speaker 2>seven fifteen here at Kentucky and it is Morning News

126
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:55.120
<v Speaker 2>with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight forty whas. We'll

127
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:57.199
<v Speaker 2>have another update on sports coming your way in about

128
00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.639
<v Speaker 2>ten minutes, and a big story here locally that has

129
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:03.560
<v Speaker 2>really dominated the conversation when it comes to local sports

130
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:07.439
<v Speaker 2>since about maybe five o'clock yesterday afternoon, and that was

131
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:11.079
<v Speaker 2>once it became I guess official, but not totally official.

132
00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:14.360
<v Speaker 2>There's not been any kind of statement released, press release

133
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:17.399
<v Speaker 2>announcement from u of L, but Vince Merrill the assistant

134
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:21.120
<v Speaker 2>coach longtime assistant coach for Mark Stoops at Kentucky. In fact,

135
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:24.720
<v Speaker 2>his current title at the website for UK Athletics is

136
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:28.800
<v Speaker 2>associate head coach. And if you are familiar with Kentucky

137
00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:30.639
<v Speaker 2>football and the Mark Stoops here, are really at all,

138
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.399
<v Speaker 2>I think you are very well aware of Vince Mayor.

139
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.519
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's a stretch to say that he

140
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:40.319
<v Speaker 2>is more known than most assistant coaches on staffs just

141
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.480
<v Speaker 2>because he's probably would be a stretch to call him

142
00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:46.000
<v Speaker 2>the face. But he's the hype man and it's worked.

143
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:48.560
<v Speaker 2>He's a great showman and a great salesman, which is

144
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:52.040
<v Speaker 2>why he's been one of the best recruiters in college

145
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:56.079
<v Speaker 2>football for quite some time, the different caliber recruit that

146
00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:58.800
<v Speaker 2>started coming to play football at Kentucky. I don't want

147
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:00.759
<v Speaker 2>to give all the credits of Vince Mario, but certainly

148
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:02.199
<v Speaker 2>he deserves a lot of it, and I don't think

149
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:04.160
<v Speaker 2>even if Mark Stoops was being honest.

150
00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:06.680
<v Speaker 5>He would dispute that. So for this guy to.

151
00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.519
<v Speaker 2>Be a long time right hand man of Mark Stoops

152
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.759
<v Speaker 2>be a big factor in the success that Stoops has

153
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 2>had in Lexington. Decide to leave in the early summer

154
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:20.480
<v Speaker 2>months here to go take a job at the rival,

155
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:23.279
<v Speaker 2>a job that is an off the field role, and

156
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:26.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure he'll be compensated well, but wouldn't shock me

157
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:29.120
<v Speaker 2>if maybe he takes a pay cut here because he

158
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:30.959
<v Speaker 2>was making a lot of money at UK and he

159
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:33.160
<v Speaker 2>was the associate head coach. Now he's going to be

160
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.360
<v Speaker 2>the GM. And that's tough to really gauge what that

161
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:39.959
<v Speaker 2>role is moving forward, because it could be a different role,

162
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:43.600
<v Speaker 2>same title, depending upon which program you're talking about, because

163
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:46.879
<v Speaker 2>really it's basically just managing the roster. It is handling

164
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:49.920
<v Speaker 2>the transfer portal, being a guy who's the lead recruiter,

165
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and he's been good at that, meaning I mean, that's

166
00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:56.759
<v Speaker 2>really where that's his calling car when it comes to

167
00:07:57.240 --> 00:07:59.519
<v Speaker 2>college football, meaning merriw he's a recruiter.

168
00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:01.279
<v Speaker 1>But there is a connection here.

169
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:05.160
<v Speaker 2>And this is something that I didn't realize until I

170
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:07.040
<v Speaker 2>guess the end of this past season, because there were

171
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.560
<v Speaker 2>rumors that this could happen and I just kept thinking.

172
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, man, there's no way.

173
00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:14.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, why would a made man in Lexington, a

174
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 2>guy who was beloved by Kentucky fans, who I don't

175
00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:19.560
<v Speaker 2>want to say he has the easiest job in the world,

176
00:08:19.639 --> 00:08:21.399
<v Speaker 2>because I don't want to act as if he doesn't

177
00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:23.639
<v Speaker 2>work hard at it, but you know, he's not really

178
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:26.199
<v Speaker 2>held accountable when they lose. You know, he coaches the

179
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:29.079
<v Speaker 2>tight ends and he recruits, and you know, they don't

180
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:31.480
<v Speaker 2>have talent at Kentucky to the level of an Alabama

181
00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:33.879
<v Speaker 2>or a Georgia, but their talent level is better now

182
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:38.000
<v Speaker 2>than it's been maybe ever, as far as just consistently.

183
00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:40.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean last year they went four and eight, and

184
00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:42.279
<v Speaker 2>that roster was not good enough to win the SEC,

185
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:44.320
<v Speaker 2>but it was certainly a roster that was better than

186
00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:46.919
<v Speaker 2>four and eight. So I just assumed the rumors that

187
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:49.360
<v Speaker 2>were out there towards the end of the regular season

188
00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:52.320
<v Speaker 2>were just that rumors, because it just didn't make any

189
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:55.279
<v Speaker 2>sense for a guy to one leave a place where

190
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:58.480
<v Speaker 2>he's a made man, he's beloved to go to the rival.

191
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:03.639
<v Speaker 2>But the connection that I was made aware of it at

192
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.799
<v Speaker 2>that time is that Brom and Vince Marrow were teammates

193
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:11.360
<v Speaker 2>in the XFL. Yeah, whenever Brom of course has that

194
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:13.720
<v Speaker 2>had that clip that lives forever.

195
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:14.039
<v Speaker 1>On the internet.

196
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:17.799
<v Speaker 2>You know that the the XFL days that is that

197
00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:19.919
<v Speaker 2>is I guess where the relationship started, and it sounds

198
00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:22.879
<v Speaker 2>like they have had a relationship to an extent since then.

199
00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:27.039
<v Speaker 2>The rivalry has clearly been in full effect. But when

200
00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:29.200
<v Speaker 2>Jeff Bram and his crew took over at u of

201
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:32.399
<v Speaker 2>L for Scott Saderfield, it was pretty clear that there's

202
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.840
<v Speaker 2>there was a level of respect that Stoops and his staff,

203
00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:36.799
<v Speaker 2>including Marrow, had for Brom and the way they go

204
00:09:36.840 --> 00:09:39.440
<v Speaker 2>about things. And I don't know this for certain, but

205
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:41.480
<v Speaker 2>there has been some talk that even whenever Jeff was

206
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:44.639
<v Speaker 2>at Purdue, he tried to bring up Vince Marrow. So

207
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:46.919
<v Speaker 2>Vince Marrow has turned down other jobs at other places.

208
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:49.679
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned this earlier. He was offered a position on

209
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:53.559
<v Speaker 2>Bill Belichick's staff at North Carolina this offseason, but he

210
00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:56.279
<v Speaker 2>decided to turn it down. But it's the rival school

211
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:58.679
<v Speaker 2>that ends up prying him away from Lexington.

212
00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:00.320
<v Speaker 4>Well, to your point, I looked at some of the

213
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:03.840
<v Speaker 4>coaches who left rival schools to go to other schools,

214
00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:07.039
<v Speaker 4>most notably comes Boat Shambuckler, he left Ohio State to

215
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:10.759
<v Speaker 4>go to Michigan. Lane Kiffin jumped from Tennessee to go

216
00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:13.639
<v Speaker 4>to Alabama, and then you look at Tommy Tumberville. I

217
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.240
<v Speaker 4>forgot about that he went from old miss over to Auburn.

218
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:19.240
<v Speaker 4>That's right, not really a rival. But Brian Kelly goes

219
00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:21.679
<v Speaker 4>from Cincinnati to Notre Dame. I remember that day he left.

220
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:24.240
<v Speaker 4>They were playing Pittsburgh. Cincinnati was I remember when he

221
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:25.200
<v Speaker 4>left without telling this.

222
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 2>Place, and let me guess that was one of those

223
00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:29.600
<v Speaker 2>moments where Cincinnati, like a lot of programs, have to

224
00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:32.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of humble themselves and realize, yeah, you've been great, Yeah,

225
00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:35.600
<v Speaker 2>but it's Notre Dame, right, just like when Charlie Strong

226
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:37.240
<v Speaker 2>went to Texas, like, yeah.

227
00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:38.519
<v Speaker 3>He's wait, he's on on this list.

228
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:41.639
<v Speaker 4>And also I did forget why I met Paul Bear

229
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:46.240
<v Speaker 4>Bryant went from Kentucky to Alabama, now necessarily rivals.

230
00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:50.120
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people mentioned the Patino situation, which is

231
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.480
<v Speaker 2>true but different because he he didn't go from directly

232
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:57.159
<v Speaker 2>from Kentucky to little but still I get it. It's

233
00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:59.279
<v Speaker 2>it's that's it. It's an unheard of kind of thing.

234
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:02.320
<v Speaker 2>And then all, well, so the only player I can remember,

235
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:04.360
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sure there's been others, but a notable player

236
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:06.960
<v Speaker 2>that moved from Louisville. From Kentucky to Louisville was the

237
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:09.759
<v Speaker 2>late Marvin Stone, who played basketball for Tubby Smith and

238
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:12.720
<v Speaker 2>then decided to finish his career with Rick Patino. Just

239
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:15.679
<v Speaker 2>things you don't see very often and understandably so if

240
00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:19.480
<v Speaker 2>you're on the wrong end of that rivalry transaction, it's

241
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:22.480
<v Speaker 2>probably something that really sticks with you. You know that

242
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:24.480
<v Speaker 2>you don't like because hey, it's the rival you don't

243
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:26.480
<v Speaker 2>want them to go there. I get it, all right,

244
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:28.799
<v Speaker 2>We'll take another break and get an update on Traffick

245
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:30.519
<v Speaker 2>and Weather. We'll also get another update on sports with

246

<v Speaker 2>It is seven thirty six here at Kentucky had this

249
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:39.440
<v Speaker 2>morning News with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight forty

250

<v Speaker 2>whas Scott fitzghared alongside John Alden also with us as

251
00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:46.440
<v Speaker 2>we've got the full team assembled.

252
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:47.399
<v Speaker 1>I have a question for you guys.

253
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes, sir, if in fact a Hollywood producer or maybe

254
00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:57.360
<v Speaker 2>somebody that is putting together one of the Sorry my fault,

255
00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:01.240
<v Speaker 2>but all good, no noorries, somebody that's putting together a

256
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:04.799
<v Speaker 2>series that's gonna stream and be Netflix's biggest series, and

257
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:08.720
<v Speaker 2>they needed a home to film in, meaning they needed

258
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:12.679
<v Speaker 2>they needed to set up and basically be the house

259
00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:14.960
<v Speaker 2>that you see more than any other house in this

260
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:17.720
<v Speaker 2>show or movie they want to use your house, would

261
00:12:17.799 --> 00:12:21.480
<v Speaker 2>you let them if they paid you, you know, let's

262
00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:24.399
<v Speaker 2>say a million dollar one time fee, would you sign off?

263
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.559
<v Speaker 4>Great question, a lot of it, because you know it

264
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:31.759
<v Speaker 4>sounds great in the beginning, But not only are you

265
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:34.720
<v Speaker 4>inviting the entire world into your home. And I just

266
00:12:34.759 --> 00:12:36.639
<v Speaker 4>in fact, I just put a social media post up

267
00:12:36.679 --> 00:12:38.799
<v Speaker 4>today about how important home is. That's kind of our

268
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:43.159
<v Speaker 4>sort of fortress of solitude. It's our retreat. But then

269
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:46.399
<v Speaker 4>you've got camera crews and people probably up at all nights.

270
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:47.600
<v Speaker 3>I like my routine at night.

271
00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Well, you're not there when they're filming. You just let

272
00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:51.320
<v Speaker 1>them borrow your house.

273
00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:52.159
<v Speaker 5>Yes, oh I got it.

274
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:52.799
<v Speaker 1>You get it back.

275
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:55.840
<v Speaker 5>But like they're gonna I don't know what about you, John, I.

276
00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:58.559
<v Speaker 6>Think I absolutely would, and I would take that money. Yeah,

277
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:00.679
<v Speaker 6>I would say yes, because of the money you could take.

278
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:03.360
<v Speaker 6>You could use that money and have a temporary living

279
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:05.679
<v Speaker 6>space somewhere, you know, not near where you live, do

280
00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:06.399
<v Speaker 6>something different.

281
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:09.200
<v Speaker 2>So the reason I bring this up is because this

282
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:12.679
<v Speaker 2>is a rare situation where the house that was used

283
00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:15.879
<v Speaker 2>for this very very popular. I mean, it's one of

284
00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:17.679
<v Speaker 2>the most popular shows I think of all time. I

285
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:19.559
<v Speaker 2>don't think it's a stretch to say Breaking Bad is

286
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:22.480
<v Speaker 2>one of the most popular shows ever. And the house

287
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:27.000
<v Speaker 2>that they used in Albuquerque, New Mexico, it is now

288
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:30.080
<v Speaker 2>owned and lived in by a woman by the name

289
00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Speaker 2>of Joanne Quintana. Her parents actually first purchased the house

290
00:13:34.279 --> 00:13:37.399
<v Speaker 2>or maybe they built the house in nineteen seventy two,

291
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:43.480
<v Speaker 2>so they decided to let them use it for the

292
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:45.679
<v Speaker 2>show Breaking Bad, of course at that time, not knowing

293
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:48.600
<v Speaker 2>that Walter White and Breaking Bad would become such a

294
00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:55.159
<v Speaker 2>iconic show. So what they did is they let let's see,

295
00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:58.399
<v Speaker 2>there was a one time location fee for filming that

296
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:01.039
<v Speaker 2>the family was paid. As far as how much money

297
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:03.879
<v Speaker 2>that is, it doesn't say here. But it has led

298
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:06.799
<v Speaker 2>to now the show no longer of course, being I mean,

299
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:09.120
<v Speaker 2>the show has been gone for a long time, and

300
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:11.600
<v Speaker 2>the house still relatively look it looks relatively the same,

301
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:14.240
<v Speaker 2>and it's just become such a burden to where people

302
00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:17.279
<v Speaker 2>just show up every day just to say they were

303
00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:21.000
<v Speaker 2>in Albuquerque and they were around the Breaking Bad house,

304
00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:24.240
<v Speaker 2>and it's it's become to the point where she doesn't

305
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:25.360
<v Speaker 2>want to live there anymore.

306
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:27.360
<v Speaker 4>Well, I think a lot of people were coming over

307
00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:28.960
<v Speaker 4>want and to eat pizza on the roof from that

308
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:30.080
<v Speaker 4>yes this episode, yeh.

309
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:32.039
<v Speaker 2>That's what's happened, is that people, they don't just want

310
00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:35.080
<v Speaker 2>to come over and eat pizza. Fans would show up

311
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:38.919
<v Speaker 2>and throw pizzas on her roof a nod to you know,

312
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:41.759
<v Speaker 2>a nod to that scene that is in season three,

313
00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:45.600
<v Speaker 2>and they don't realize that somebody lives here, this is

314
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:49.200
<v Speaker 2>their home, Like you actually can be criminally charged for

315
00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:52.600
<v Speaker 2>doing something like that. But people don't think that's such

316
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:55.159
<v Speaker 2>a not real life thing because they're looking at a

317
00:14:55.200 --> 00:14:58.320
<v Speaker 2>house that they probably got way lost in, not meaning

318
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:00.879
<v Speaker 2>actually in the house, but just lost in the series

319
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.679
<v Speaker 2>to where they don't ever even consider, oh, somebody actually

320
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:06.039
<v Speaker 2>lives here. You know, we're not here just to you know,

321
00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:09.360
<v Speaker 2>this isn't a tourist spot. So what she's decided to

322
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.919
<v Speaker 2>do is take a big gamble. She's listed the home

323
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:15.919
<v Speaker 2>for four million dollars despite its market value being around

324
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:18.480
<v Speaker 2>three hundred and fifty five or three hundred and fifty thousand,

325
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:20.639
<v Speaker 2>so she hopes that there's going to be a buyer

326
00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:23.559
<v Speaker 2>that will turn it into some kind of a museum

327
00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:27.000
<v Speaker 2>or an airbnb to profit off the fans who she

328
00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:30.039
<v Speaker 2>can't stand. But of course if there was a situation

329
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:32.799
<v Speaker 2>where they could. She's a very normal I shouldn't. I mean,

330
00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:35.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess normal is very subjective. But she's she's she's

331
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.000
<v Speaker 2>got a career. She's not a celebrity by any means.

332
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:41.000
<v Speaker 2>She had the resources to run her own Airbnb out

333
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.080
<v Speaker 2>of her own home, Yeah, she probably wouldn't want to.

334
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:44.879
<v Speaker 3>No, it's like what they did with the Brady House.

335
00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:45.799
<v Speaker 2>You know.

336
00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:48.039
<v Speaker 4>Could you imagine where you own that and you live there.

337
00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:49.679
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you can get a moment's piece.

338
00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:50.679
<v Speaker 3>Yep, you know what I mean.

339
00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:53.080
<v Speaker 2>So she's hoping that she can sell it for a

340
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:55.360
<v Speaker 2>lot and move on because she doesn't really want to.

341
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:57.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's it's a home she grew up in. Yah.

342
00:15:57.919 --> 00:16:00.799
<v Speaker 2>But I don't think as long as she's there, she's

343
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:03.600
<v Speaker 2>gonna be able to keep the fans from showing up

344
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:05.679
<v Speaker 2>and wanting to get a selfie and just bothering her

345
00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:07.799
<v Speaker 2>being in the way. Yeah, I'll never forget. I went

346
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:09.960
<v Speaker 2>to Chicago as a kid. First time I went to

347
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:13.919
<v Speaker 2>the Windy City. It was in the mid nineties. I

348
00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:16.399
<v Speaker 2>was a young kid. My favorite show was Family Matters,

349
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:17.879
<v Speaker 2>although at the time when I get just called it

350
00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:20.039
<v Speaker 2>the Erkele Show, and I remember they would show you

351
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:22.360
<v Speaker 2>that house in Chicago and they were doing the intro

352
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:25.480
<v Speaker 2>the theme song to Family Matters, and we ended up

353
00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:28.320
<v Speaker 2>driving by where it was, and it broke my heart

354
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:30.639
<v Speaker 2>that my father had to tell me they don't actually

355
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.279
<v Speaker 2>film the show in there. It's on a Hollywood set

356
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:35.600
<v Speaker 2>in front of a crowd. I'm like, what you're telling me,

357
00:16:35.639 --> 00:16:38.879
<v Speaker 2>Carl Winslow's not in there right now in Erkele's next door,

358
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:39.240
<v Speaker 2>it was.

359
00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:40.320
<v Speaker 1>It crushed me.

360
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.679
<v Speaker 4>It's the Roseanne House over in Evansville. Yeah, oh yeah, Nowaday,

361
00:16:43.720 --> 00:16:45.200
<v Speaker 4>Actually it's in Evansville, and.

362
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:46.519
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people show up to the full House

363
00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:48.840
<v Speaker 2>house in the Bay Area because it's such you know,

364
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:50.360
<v Speaker 2>you just I mean, a lot of people could pick

365
00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:53.159
<v Speaker 2>that one out of the lineup. So anyways, I if

366
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:54.679
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna pay me a million dollars, you can you

367
00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:57.240
<v Speaker 2>can use my house for for a while, because that's

368
00:16:57.320 --> 00:16:59.039
<v Speaker 2>that's a lot of money to someone like myself, just

369
00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:01.799
<v Speaker 2>saying all right, we've got another update of trafficking weather

370
00:17:01.879 --> 00:17:05.200
<v Speaker 2>coming your way here on news radio eight forty WHS

371
00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:08.839
<v Speaker 2>seven forty six Here at Kentucky, its morning news with

372
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:11.720
<v Speaker 2>Nick Coffee. That's me here on News Radio eight forty

373
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:14.720
<v Speaker 2>whas Scott Fitzgerald and John Old and alongside we'll have

374
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:17.640
<v Speaker 2>another update on news with John Shannon coming up here

375
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:21.599
<v Speaker 2>at eight o'clock. So Game three of the NBA Finals

376
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:25.000
<v Speaker 2>will be tomorrow night, and next year the NBA is

377
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:26.880
<v Speaker 2>going to look a lot different. And what I mean

378
00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.039
<v Speaker 2>by that is just where you are watching games, because

379
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:34.240
<v Speaker 2>it was a really lengthy process. But TNT Turner no

380
00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:37.119
<v Speaker 2>longer going to be a part of the NBA coverage. However,

381
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:43.039
<v Speaker 2>the crew that has become legendary, Ernie Kenny, Shaq, Charles,

382
00:17:43.079 --> 00:17:46.000
<v Speaker 2>those guys inside the NBA, they're going to be basically

383
00:17:46.119 --> 00:17:48.640
<v Speaker 2>leased to ESPNS, so you'll see them as part of

384
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:52.640
<v Speaker 2>ESPN's coverage. But next year you've got NBC getting back

385
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:54.799
<v Speaker 2>into the mix, airing NBA games for the first time

386
00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:58.039
<v Speaker 2>in a long time. Peacock will have exclusive Monday night

387
00:17:58.079 --> 00:18:01.880
<v Speaker 2>games Amazon Prime. We'll also have up to I think

388
00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:06.319
<v Speaker 2>sixty six regular season games including Friday nights. So this

389
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:08.839
<v Speaker 2>is a lot different than what we've become used to

390
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:12.279
<v Speaker 2>for many, many years. And what's happened is each network

391
00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:16.440
<v Speaker 2>is trying to assemble a team to cover the NBA

392
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:19.720
<v Speaker 2>that is competitive, and I'm sure they want it to

393
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:21.519
<v Speaker 2>be the best. They want to say, Yes, you've got

394
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:24.640
<v Speaker 2>a lot of different NBA coverage with different networks all

395
00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:26.839
<v Speaker 2>wanting a piece of the pie here, but we want

396
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:29.480
<v Speaker 2>to put the best team together as far as coverage.

397
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:35.519
<v Speaker 2>And there's been some slow gradual announcements from each network

398
00:18:35.559 --> 00:18:37.160
<v Speaker 2>as far as who's going to be a part of it.

399
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:40.720
<v Speaker 2>Amazon has leaked has announced some names that are going

400
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:44.200
<v Speaker 2>to be of course, you know, play by play guys

401
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:51.480
<v Speaker 2>and whatnot. But imagine being someone like Peacock or ESPN, Slash, ABC, Amazon,

402
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:55.640
<v Speaker 2>and you're sitting back thinking, hmm, I wonder what NBC

403
00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 2>is going to do here, and you're expecting them to

404
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:01.559
<v Speaker 2>do something that you're gonna have to counter, right, and

405
00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:04.720
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna have to say, Okay, we see your talented

406
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:07.359
<v Speaker 2>edition here as a play by play guy. We've now

407
00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:11.200
<v Speaker 2>got this guy as our studio analyst. Well, I imagine they

408
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:15.599
<v Speaker 2>folded their hand, meaning ESPN, Peacock and Amazon Prime. When

409
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:18.880
<v Speaker 2>NBC announced that we've got Michael Jordan, He's going to

410
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:22.200
<v Speaker 2>be joining our team as an analyst, you fold because

411
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Jordan's just different. He's and he could be really bad

412
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:28.559
<v Speaker 2>as an analyst when it comes to those who I

413
00:19:28.559 --> 00:19:31.599
<v Speaker 2>guess analyze analysts as far as who's good and who's not.

414
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.799
<v Speaker 2>But people like me won't care because it's Michael Jordan.

415
00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:37.519
<v Speaker 2>And I think because he's been in the background so long,

416
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:39.359
<v Speaker 2>he's not been in private. He couldn't be private if

417
00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:42.119
<v Speaker 2>he wanted to. He's Michael Jordan. But he's been involved

418
00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:44.559
<v Speaker 2>in sports, an owner, not a great owner, to be

419
00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:46.400
<v Speaker 2>honest with you. When it comes to the Charlotte Hornets.

420
00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:50.279
<v Speaker 2>He's also been involved in NASCAR, had some success, but

421
00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:55.599
<v Speaker 2>he's been He's been behind the scenes incomfortable and content.

422
00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:57.799
<v Speaker 2>Michael Jordan could say he wants to talk at any moment,

423
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:00.440
<v Speaker 2>every camera would show up, but he doesn't want to

424
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:02.920
<v Speaker 2>do that, doesn't need that, certainly doesn't need money. So

425
00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:06.799
<v Speaker 2>I've always asked myself since since this news broke, what

426
00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:09.599
<v Speaker 2>made him want to do this after so many years

427
00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:13.559
<v Speaker 2>of being behind the scenes. Well, money talks. The report

428
00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:16.839
<v Speaker 2>that forty million per year was the deal that apparently

429
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:19.319
<v Speaker 2>has been shot down by Front Office Sports. They claim

430
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:21.920
<v Speaker 2>that's a big exaggeration. However, he is making a lot

431
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:24.279
<v Speaker 2>of money, which makes sense as to why he would

432
00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:26.720
<v Speaker 2>want to do it. But steven A Smith did say

433
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:30.319
<v Speaker 2>on the Sports Illustrated Media podcast with Jimmy Traina that

434
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:34.039
<v Speaker 2>he expects and I don't know this claims that steven

435
00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:36.519
<v Speaker 2>A Smith and Michael Jordan are friends. Do we believe

436
00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:39.240
<v Speaker 2>their friends or is this stephen A wanting you to

437
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:41.799
<v Speaker 2>believe he's friends with everybody? There was a great SNL

438
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:45.720
<v Speaker 2>impression they did of steven A where he was basically

439
00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:48.519
<v Speaker 2>talking about Lebron James is I was in the broom

440
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:50.839
<v Speaker 2>when his son was boil Like, you're just exaggerating, because

441
00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:53.680
<v Speaker 2>anytime steven A Smith would talk about NBA players, he

442
00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:56.200
<v Speaker 2>would let you know some level of connection that they had,

443
00:20:56.279 --> 00:20:59.240
<v Speaker 2>like you know, wanting to let everybody know he's rubbing

444
00:20:59.240 --> 00:21:01.720
<v Speaker 2>elbows with. So maybe they are friends, maybe they're not.

445
00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:03.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't really know. But steven A Smith has said

446
00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:06.599
<v Speaker 2>that when Jordan is going to be in that role

447
00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:08.519
<v Speaker 2>as a studio analyst, I think he's going to be

448
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:10.240
<v Speaker 2>a part of some coverage when it comes to games

449
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:12.160
<v Speaker 2>here and there, that he will he's going to be

450
00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:16.440
<v Speaker 2>brutally honest and maybe be as critical of NBA play

451
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:21.000
<v Speaker 2>and players as we've ever seen, which see that I

452
00:21:21.000 --> 00:21:22.720
<v Speaker 2>could see it just knowing sort of when we have

453
00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:24.839
<v Speaker 2>heard from Jordan. Yeah, he's wired a little bit different.

454
00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:26.559
<v Speaker 2>That's I think what's made him so great. He's such

455
00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:29.119
<v Speaker 2>a competitor. I think not only would this be interesting

456
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:30.720
<v Speaker 2>to see, I think it could be good. I think

457
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:34.519
<v Speaker 2>because sometimes I don't want to hear analysts, former players,

458
00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:37.440
<v Speaker 2>former coaches that end up in those roles just take

459
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:40.680
<v Speaker 2>this side of the association because it's the code. I

460
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:44.799
<v Speaker 2>want brutal, honest opinions and you know, people that aren't

461
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:47.359
<v Speaker 2>afraid to tell it like it is without hurting feelings.

462
00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:49.839
<v Speaker 4>Well, if you watch Full Speed, the Netflix documentary on

463
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:52.960
<v Speaker 4>NASCAR that features Michael Jordan in twenty two eleven racing,

464
00:21:53.319 --> 00:21:55.960
<v Speaker 4>and he's very very open in that respect. But he's

465
00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:58.519
<v Speaker 4>also what he's good at is getting out of the

466
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:01.680
<v Speaker 4>way in letting fo do what they do best. And

467
00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:03.400
<v Speaker 4>I think that's where Jordan brings the best of both.

468
00:22:03.599 --> 00:22:06.000
<v Speaker 4>Was I personally want to hear Michael Jordan talk about

469
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:06.359
<v Speaker 4>the game.

470
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:09.200
<v Speaker 2>Michael Jordan could talk about anything, and I think I

471
00:22:09.240 --> 00:22:12.799
<v Speaker 2>would be I'd be listening just because it's Michael Jordan.

472
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:15.119
<v Speaker 2>He's one of the legends in all of sports. So

473
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:17.839
<v Speaker 2>I am eager to see what he brings to the table.

474
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:20.480
<v Speaker 2>But again, he could be terrible. He could say very little.

475
00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:22.720
<v Speaker 2>He could be Bill Belichick for all I know, as

476
00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:24.240
<v Speaker 2>far as in front of a camera on a microphone,

477
00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:25.559
<v Speaker 2>and I think I would just have that look on

478
00:22:25.599 --> 00:22:28.759
<v Speaker 2>my face like, oh my gosh, it's Michael Jordan. It's

479
00:22:28.759 --> 00:22:31.440
<v Speaker 2>the Jordan effect. All right, quick break, We've got another
