00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:08.000
<v Speaker 1>It's time for Coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on

2
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day. Now here's Nick coffee.

3
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:19.199
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get it started, ladies and gentlemen. It

4
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:21.239
<v Speaker 2>is the five o'clock hour here on a game day

5
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 2>edition of Coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's here on

6
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:27.839
<v Speaker 2>Sports Talk seven ninety Nit coffee. That is me Austin

7
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:31.839
<v Speaker 2>Montgomery alongside today as we take you up until six o'clock.

8
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:35.960
<v Speaker 2>And I don't want to overdo it, but there are

9
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:40.520
<v Speaker 2>things that we as Louisville basketball fans are experiencing for

10
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:44.359
<v Speaker 2>the first time in a long time, and it's a

11
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:47.840
<v Speaker 2>good feeling. And today's one of those days because you know,

12
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:54.079
<v Speaker 2>this is the first weekday into the new year winter,

13
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:58.359
<v Speaker 2>clearly with the weather outside, and it's an ACC game. Man,

14
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:00.640
<v Speaker 2>The ACC clearly is not in a great about right now.

15
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:02.240
<v Speaker 2>But you could take advantage of that if you're Louisville,

16
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>and I hope that they do. Maybe they already have,

17
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:07.439
<v Speaker 2>considering they're off to a to a three and one

18
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>start in league play, but it just feels like what

19
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:14.359
<v Speaker 2>it used to feel like, kind of right. I mean,

20
00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:17.200
<v Speaker 2>this is not Louisville as a top ten team hosting

21
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:20.760
<v Speaker 2>another top twenty team. You know that that's not where

22
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 2>Louisville is anymore, at least not right now, and certainly

23
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:27.640
<v Speaker 2>the ACC. So I knew this would happen, and I thought,

24
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:31.200
<v Speaker 2>maybe kind of knowing it, getting ahead of it, realizing

25
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:33.359
<v Speaker 2>that little things that we used to just take for

26
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:35.920
<v Speaker 2>granted that wouldn't even appear on the radar for us,

27
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:38.920
<v Speaker 2>will start to be fun because of you know, I

28
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:41.760
<v Speaker 2>mean we were We were lifeless for a couple of years.

29
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.879
<v Speaker 2>And when I say that, I mean we, I mean

30
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:48.280
<v Speaker 2>you just we still watched I did postgame shows. People

31
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.879
<v Speaker 2>reacted to it. It was something that that you thought about,

32
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:55.159
<v Speaker 2>probably more than you even wanted to, because it's unnatural

33
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 2>as a Louisville basketball fan to not be locked in

34
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:01.879
<v Speaker 2>during basketball season. That's what we were dead like. There

35
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.599
<v Speaker 2>was no talk about can we make the tournament? Can

36
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:08.360
<v Speaker 2>we Like it's a weird feeling, but like there are

37
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:11.159
<v Speaker 2>some people that even towards the end, probably didn't want

38
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:13.800
<v Speaker 2>to see Louisville play well because it might it might

39
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 2>give you a panic attack thinking that maybe somebody like

40
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:18.759
<v Speaker 2>Kenny could have won eight more games and they still

41
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 2>should have fired him. No, I don't know if they

42
00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:22.039
<v Speaker 2>would have, but like that's the reality of it. Like

43
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>if you have a guy that you know has a

44
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:28.199
<v Speaker 2>low ceiling or not a ceiling at all, and you're

45
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:31.560
<v Speaker 2>a program like Louisville, like the sooner you cut ties,

46
00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:33.479
<v Speaker 2>the better it is, because you just know that that

47
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:34.840
<v Speaker 2>guy's not going to be able to get you where

48
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:37.599
<v Speaker 2>you want to be. So that's where we were for

49
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:39.719
<v Speaker 2>two years, and then before that it was the slow

50
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:44.159
<v Speaker 2>decline and the pandemic. And I mean, I really you know,

51
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:48.039
<v Speaker 2>to go back to the feelings that we knew would

52
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:50.639
<v Speaker 2>we hoped, i should say, would be here once again,

53
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:53.599
<v Speaker 2>and knowing they would feel good. I mean two things

54
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:55.199
<v Speaker 2>today have just kind of stood out to me as

55
00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:56.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm getting ready for the show. I'm going to the

56
00:02:56.639 --> 00:02:58.280
<v Speaker 2>game tonight, looking forward to being there. I'm taking them

57
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:02.199
<v Speaker 2>a family, and you know, I'm excited. But knowing that

58
00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:04.199
<v Speaker 2>there's a conference game that you feel good about and

59
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:06.599
<v Speaker 2>if you win against a good team, there's going to

60
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:10.400
<v Speaker 2>be real value and having legitimate belief, like sometimes fans

61
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:12.240
<v Speaker 2>are just going to assume their team's going to win

62
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.520
<v Speaker 2>or approach it as from a fans perspective with a

63
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.439
<v Speaker 2>positive mindset. It has nothing to do with the actual

64
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 2>game itself. But like I get while people do that, right,

65
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:21.159
<v Speaker 2>you know what, he miserable. You want to, at least

66
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:23.000
<v Speaker 2>until the game starts, feel like, hey, let's go do this,

67
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:27.479
<v Speaker 2>let's go win. So you know that's always there to

68
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:29.560
<v Speaker 2>an extent with some fans, but this is legit, Like

69
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Louisville is favored tonight and if they win, that'll be

70
00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 2>another good win for them. And I think fans aren't

71
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 2>being homers and saying, yeah, let's go win this. We

72
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 2>feel like we are the better team. We're at home,

73
00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:43.800
<v Speaker 2>we're playing good basketball. Let's go see where we stand.

74
00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:47.120
<v Speaker 2>So that's a good feeling that I'd missed. But also

75
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:50.599
<v Speaker 2>the bracketology stuff, like just to know that, hey it's

76
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:56.439
<v Speaker 2>January Selection Sunday, a couple months away, and we are

77
00:03:56.479 --> 00:04:00.759
<v Speaker 2>in position now that I don't want to say you're

78
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:02.800
<v Speaker 2>in the driver's seat because that's kind of unknown, right,

79
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:05.680
<v Speaker 2>Like if you end up beating the teams that you

80
00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:09.199
<v Speaker 2>know you're supposed to beat, but you lose to the

81
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:12.960
<v Speaker 2>teams that are projected to beat you given where those

82
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 2>teams are, meaning the ones that like you're supposed to

83
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 2>lose to Pittsburgh. I mean, they're what a seven seed

84
00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:20.560
<v Speaker 2>was in an eight seed. Let me pull it up

85
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:23.480
<v Speaker 2>here like that kind of you know. Anyways, back to

86
00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:26.279
<v Speaker 2>the bracketology stuff, like Louisville, I kind of feel like

87
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:28.519
<v Speaker 2>the way they've played in what they've shown and given

88
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.560
<v Speaker 2>the momentum that they've had in these last couple of games,

89
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:33.279
<v Speaker 2>and looking at the rest of the league, it's just

90
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:34.839
<v Speaker 2>nice to know that, yeah, we should be in the

91
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:37.439
<v Speaker 2>tournament now. Who knows if that ends up happening, and

92
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.319
<v Speaker 2>if it doesn't, maybe there are some unfortunate reasons, maybe

93
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 2>somebody gets hurt. Hopefully that doesn't happen. They've been bitten

94
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:45.399
<v Speaker 2>by the injury bug bad enough already. But it's just

95
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:49.240
<v Speaker 2>it's just nice to have life back within the program.

96
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:51.800
<v Speaker 2>And I know there are still some folks talking about

97
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:57.199
<v Speaker 2>attendance and Louisville, you know, just not moving the needle

98
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:01.079
<v Speaker 2>around here like it once did. And those people aren't wrong,

99
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:04.360
<v Speaker 2>but I don't know why. If you're a fan and

100
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:06.600
<v Speaker 2>you care about it, you're going to I mean, you

101
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:08.759
<v Speaker 2>can't control it. All you can do is your part

102
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:12.759
<v Speaker 2>and show up support. And you know, I don't know

103
00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:14.319
<v Speaker 2>if this is true or not. But I believe that

104
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:23.600
<v Speaker 2>if Louisville basketball starts putting together good seasons consistently, this

105
00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:25.560
<v Speaker 2>thing will be back to where it once was. I

106
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:27.199
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you're going to see the same numbers

107
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.839
<v Speaker 2>you saw previously, meaning in the Patino era, because that

108
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:33.680
<v Speaker 2>was a different time and it really, you know, clearly

109
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:36.639
<v Speaker 2>Rick and Tom had people wanting to come to games.

110
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:38.319
<v Speaker 2>I mean not just those guys specifically, but it was

111
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:40.120
<v Speaker 2>just different. Let's be really, it was those guys were

112
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:42.959
<v Speaker 2>different and things were great, and you know, that was

113
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:44.399
<v Speaker 2>a long time ago. Now we've got to move on.

114
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 2>But I think there could be programs that maintained their

115
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:55.639
<v Speaker 2>status within college basketball for fifteen twenty years, and yet

116
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:58.959
<v Speaker 2>I bet their attendance for games, like you know, the

117
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:02.839
<v Speaker 2>Dougs is probably lower now than it was ten years

118
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:05.639
<v Speaker 2>ago because now people can just be Again. It goes

119
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:08.160
<v Speaker 2>back to the whole season ticket conversation. You can go

120
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:09.879
<v Speaker 2>to every game you want and save a ton of

121
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.439
<v Speaker 2>money because you're not paying a big donation and you're

122
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 2>not paying the price for season tickets. So that's just

123
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.839
<v Speaker 2>what people do now. So anyways, I know that there's

124
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, I guess more than anything. I'm a little

125
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:23.959
<v Speaker 2>insecure here as a lois basketball fan because I am

126
00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.519
<v Speaker 2>giddy about where where things are right now, Like this

127
00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 2>has been fun. Austin and I and my wife of course,

128
00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:31.199
<v Speaker 2>we went to the game the other night against Carolina.

129
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:33.279
<v Speaker 2>That was such a good time. It was a fun time, man,

130
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.639
<v Speaker 2>that I felt alive, like I felt, you know, and

131
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:37.720
<v Speaker 2>I've enjoyed watching this team when they've had their success

132
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:42.079
<v Speaker 2>throughout the season so far, but being there being a

133
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.439
<v Speaker 2>part of it, like it was a big step for

134
00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:47.519
<v Speaker 2>me is like, man, that was awesome, and I thought

135
00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:48.920
<v Speaker 2>the Tennessee game was going to be that and you

136
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>know we were wrong about that. So I guess I'm

137
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.800
<v Speaker 2>insecure because I know that it sounds like I'm giving

138
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:59.399
<v Speaker 2>ammunition to you know, the rivalry, and I shouldn't care

139
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:00.959
<v Speaker 2>about that, but you know, I know how it works,

140
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:04.720
<v Speaker 2>like me just being excited talking up Louisville Clemson tonight,

141
00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Louisville playing an unranked team, Louisville being a bubble team,

142
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.399
<v Speaker 2>They're probably not being anywhere close to a sellout, and

143
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 2>yet I'm this excited, Like I know people are like, wow,

144
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:18.199
<v Speaker 2>that's that's sad. Can you believe what's happened, Like, no,

145
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:22.040
<v Speaker 2>none of us can jackass. Nobody would have believed that

146
00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:24.480
<v Speaker 2>the program would have gone through the last few years

147
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.360
<v Speaker 2>had you told us ten fifteen years ago, like nobody

148
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:28.800
<v Speaker 2>would have believe you. But it happened. What do you

149
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:34.759
<v Speaker 2>want us to do? I mean, so I'm just gonna

150
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:37.800
<v Speaker 2>be me and be giddy like a schoolboy and be

151
00:07:37.879 --> 00:07:40.480
<v Speaker 2>excited because I think the momentum and the vibes, the

152
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.879
<v Speaker 2>energy is great right now with Louisville basketball. And if

153
00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:47.040
<v Speaker 2>that continues, which I think Pat Kelsey's shown that he

154
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:49.800
<v Speaker 2>should be able to have success here. If this continues,

155
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:53.680
<v Speaker 2>then then I think you'll start to get Louisville basketball

156
00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:57.519
<v Speaker 2>really commanding attention around here like it once did. But

157
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 2>it's natural, it's it's it should have been expected to

158
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.759
<v Speaker 2>have a little bit of a slow, gradual build back

159
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:09.920
<v Speaker 2>up whenever you had the stretch that you had that

160
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:12.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'd like to pretend never happened. But man,

161
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.360
<v Speaker 2>in a weird way, and again this is where I

162
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:17.120
<v Speaker 2>feel like I'm I'm talking to like a psychologist or something,

163
00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:22.319
<v Speaker 2>or a therapist. You know. I thought the new energy,

164
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:25.839
<v Speaker 2>the new life, the excitement that comes with it would

165
00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:28.879
<v Speaker 2>make me just kind of forget about. Like Kenny Payne,

166
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:31.959
<v Speaker 2>I would find myself thinking, Oh, there's no way that happened, right,

167
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:34.039
<v Speaker 2>like clearly, I mean, look at this, these guys are

168
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:37.080
<v Speaker 2>playing their ass off, They're playing hard, they got a

169
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:40.399
<v Speaker 2>good coach out there. This is awesome. Like it would

170
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:43.240
<v Speaker 2>make me I assumed had this if you had told

171
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:44.279
<v Speaker 2>me this was going to play out the way that

172
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:45.799
<v Speaker 2>they did, I would have assumed that I would have

173
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:49.679
<v Speaker 2>been somewhat in disbelief that we went through what we

174
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:52.000
<v Speaker 2>went through. But in fact, I'm actually reminded of it

175
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.720
<v Speaker 2>all the time because if there's anything that I can

176
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:57.480
<v Speaker 2>take from it is it's made me appreciate things that

177
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:01.360
<v Speaker 2>I honestly probably never appreciate. Right Like I was, I

178
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:03.720
<v Speaker 2>was growing up in the nineties with Denny's teams. In

179
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:06.440
<v Speaker 2>the nineties it was hit or miss, and the teams

180
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:09.600
<v Speaker 2>that I idolized, you know, weren't elite. I mean the team

181
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:12.600
<v Speaker 2>that I fell in love with that I became obsessed with,

182
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:14.679
<v Speaker 2>where I first got the itch and I was hooked

183
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 2>was the nineteen ninety seventeen with Dwan Weed and Alvin Simms,

184
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:22.159
<v Speaker 2>Bozac Smith, PJ. Flynn, Damien Danzler. I mean that was

185
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:24.720
<v Speaker 2>that was my squad, and I love those guys, love

186
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.200
<v Speaker 2>that team. I cried when they lost. I was I

187
00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:30.600
<v Speaker 2>was obsessed. So I was so young, I didn't I

188
00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:32.159
<v Speaker 2>knew they were good, but like I didn't, I wouldn't

189
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:33.919
<v Speaker 2>pay attention to what seed they were. I was eight

190
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:38.559
<v Speaker 2>years old, so I didn't really you know, I didn't

191
00:09:38.600 --> 00:09:41.320
<v Speaker 2>really care at that age, like good or bad. I

192
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:43.559
<v Speaker 2>just loved him, right, Like Moose is just now and

193
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.480
<v Speaker 2>he's smarter than I was. I guess, but he's four

194
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:47.240
<v Speaker 2>and he now knows like, hey, dad, did we win

195
00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:48.639
<v Speaker 2>or we lose? I don't just care that we I

196
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:51.519
<v Speaker 2>don't care that we played. We need to win go cards,

197
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:54.240
<v Speaker 2>like we need the go cards to win. So, you know,

198
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 2>I when I became sort of I guess, you know,

199
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.759
<v Speaker 2>a college basketball super fan rather than just a Louisville

200
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:04.879
<v Speaker 2>basketball super fan. From then on, a down year for

201
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:08.320
<v Speaker 2>me was Louisville like maybe missing the tournament, Denny's last year,

202
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:11.679
<v Speaker 2>which was terrible, that kind of stuff. So I was

203
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 2>spoiled to where again like I never I never had

204
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:17.360
<v Speaker 2>to really appre like things that were just a given

205
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:22.000
<v Speaker 2>and were the obvious. I just it was you know,

206
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:24.039
<v Speaker 2>you could do that, like you could beat teams about

207
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:27.279
<v Speaker 2>fifty in the non conference portion of your schedule and

208
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:29.120
<v Speaker 2>and still think, okay, are we need good or not? Well,

209
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:31.000
<v Speaker 2>then you know what happened the last few years. It

210
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.519
<v Speaker 2>was just a much different, much different world. So a

211
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:36.000
<v Speaker 2>lot of college basketball games. Tonight, Kentucky taken on Georgia.

212
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Let me double check here to see if there's any update,

213
00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:40.559
<v Speaker 2>and this spread, uh, Kentucky was favored by two and

214
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:42.840
<v Speaker 2>a half their first SEC road game, coming off a

215
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:45.240
<v Speaker 2>big win. In fact, now it's down to Kentucky minus

216
00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:47.159
<v Speaker 2>one and a half huge road win, I'm sorry, a

217
00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:50.480
<v Speaker 2>huge home win for Kentucky against Florida. And that game

218
00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 2>reminded me of this Kentucky team and where they're the

219
00:10:55.600 --> 00:11:01.200
<v Speaker 2>most dangerous. And there are teams out there that want

220
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:04.759
<v Speaker 2>to do what their opponent wants to do because they're alike,

221
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:08.559
<v Speaker 2>meaning they realize the best version of ourself is when

222
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:12.159
<v Speaker 2>we are doing this. It just so happens that this

223
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:14.720
<v Speaker 2>team we play, they're in the same boat, meaning the

224
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:17.399
<v Speaker 2>best version of themselves is also doing what we want

225
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:20.600
<v Speaker 2>to do. And what I'm talking about is possessions. Kentucky

226
00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:26.960
<v Speaker 2>is they're most dangerous a legitimate national championship contender when

227
00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:30.679
<v Speaker 2>they're playing anybody that I've seen in college basketball where

228
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:34.399
<v Speaker 2>they want to go possession for possession and just you know,

229
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:38.600
<v Speaker 2>it's that it's played that fast because Kentucky is really

230
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:42.000
<v Speaker 2>efficient in that area. Now again, they're going to have

231
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:43.600
<v Speaker 2>nights where they want to do that and maybe they're

232
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:46.200
<v Speaker 2>missing shots, but you know, they've got Kobe Brea who

233
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:49.000
<v Speaker 2>can put on a performance like he did against Florida

234
00:11:49.080 --> 00:11:51.399
<v Speaker 2>in any moment and it's not a shocker. He's that's

235
00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:55.159
<v Speaker 2>a weapon. They've got other guys that aren't maybe elite shooters,

236
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:59.320
<v Speaker 2>but if the game's played fast, they're getting good looks

237
00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:04.080
<v Speaker 2>in transition. Andrew Carr spotting up, he'll knock it. Louisville

238
00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:06.600
<v Speaker 2>fans learn firsthand Lamont Butler he can get hot and

239
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:09.039
<v Speaker 2>make three point shots too. So the two teams I

240
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:12.279
<v Speaker 2>think are alike, where Kobe Bray is probably the best

241
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:14.200
<v Speaker 2>shooter in the country, to be honest with you, and

242
00:12:14.200 --> 00:12:16.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I think his performance recently kind of confirms that.

243
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:18.759
<v Speaker 2>So he's the one guy they have that's just like

244
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.200
<v Speaker 2>the guy that you know can get hot and change

245
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:24.960
<v Speaker 2>a game. By himself. Louisville has that in rain Smith.

246
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:27.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm not putting rain on Kobe Bray's level yet, but

247
00:12:27.399 --> 00:12:29.399
<v Speaker 2>Rain Smith's the same guy, like he could get hot

248
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:31.720
<v Speaker 2>and make four in a row and nobody's shocked. Like

249
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.039
<v Speaker 2>he's the guy that. Twice this year I've seen it.

250
00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:38.399
<v Speaker 2>Timeouts are called and the opposing coach is in one

251
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:41.919
<v Speaker 2>of his players grill because he's in disbelief that they

252
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>let rain Smith get open in transition because he's that

253
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:46.840
<v Speaker 2>he's on the scouting report as that. But everybody else

254
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:49.080
<v Speaker 2>to play for both teams, you got guys that can

255
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:50.480
<v Speaker 2>knock it, but it's just you know, they may have

256
00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:55.399
<v Speaker 2>off nights and like that's not a shocker. So this

257
00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky team, I mean, if you Clemson, who over a

258
00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:03.919
<v Speaker 2>place tonight. Clemson clearly slowed Kentucky down and did a

259
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.720
<v Speaker 2>good job of not letting Kentucky dictate pace and style,

260
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:11.120
<v Speaker 2>And that didn't guarantee they'd win, but it gave them

261
00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:15.080
<v Speaker 2>a much better chance at knocking them off. And I

262
00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:18.440
<v Speaker 2>think Florida is a team against Kentucky on Saturday. They

263
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:22.039
<v Speaker 2>feel like, hey, why would we like we're the better team, right,

264
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:25.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean they thought they were, and we know they

265
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:26.200
<v Speaker 2>want to do what we want to do, but we

266
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:28.440
<v Speaker 2>feel like we're better equipped to do it. And maybe

267
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:31.159
<v Speaker 2>if they played ten times, Florida wins more than five.

268
00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:34.519
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but it's just if you're going to

269
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:38.000
<v Speaker 2>play Kentucky, you're going to challenge them to play a

270
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:41.480
<v Speaker 2>style that you know they prefer and that they're at

271
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:44.399
<v Speaker 2>their best, their ceiling is the highest. You got to

272
00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:46.919
<v Speaker 2>be prepared to have that happen to you, like what

273
00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:50.879
<v Speaker 2>happened on Saturday. When this can I mean, we pull

274
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:53.519
<v Speaker 2>it up here because I'm pretty sure I don't remember

275
00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:56.120
<v Speaker 2>the final score. Did Kentucky score one hundred? Let me

276
00:13:56.200 --> 00:13:59.159
<v Speaker 2>see here? Yeah, Kentucky, Yeah, one hundred and six to

277
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:00.720
<v Speaker 2>one hundred. So they gave up a lot of points,

278
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:02.679
<v Speaker 2>but again and then they were in control for the

279
00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:07.279
<v Speaker 2>majority of the second half. So you know, Florida probably

280
00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:11.639
<v Speaker 2>would would overall view their performance as far as the numbers.

281
00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:14.080
<v Speaker 2>If they wanted to just nerd out on the numbers.

282
00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:16.559
<v Speaker 2>They probably feel pretty good about what they did, but

283
00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:18.519
<v Speaker 2>they played a team that in fact is better at

284
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:20.720
<v Speaker 2>doing that than them. Probably a rare situation for them,

285
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:24.639
<v Speaker 2>to be honest with you, So for Georgia tonight, they're

286
00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:27.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm surprised, I'm not going to touch it,

287
00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:31.279
<v Speaker 2>but wouldn't you I mean, again, we may just block

288
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 2>out and go off the air by saying this, But Austin,

289
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 2>don't you think Kentucky minus one and a half is

290
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:38.759
<v Speaker 2>like such an obvious play here? I'm not betting it,

291
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:40.440
<v Speaker 2>and I hope that they get killed. But like I

292
00:14:40.519 --> 00:14:43.279
<v Speaker 2>just think, you know, watching ball here, like I think,

293
00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I think Kentucky george is not viewed as one of

294
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:49.000
<v Speaker 2>the big atmospheres on the road in the SEC and basketball.

295
00:14:49.440 --> 00:14:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Georgia they only win, they have a good win against

296
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Saint John's, But if you're paying attention Rick Patino, you

297
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:57.840
<v Speaker 2>know he's a bubble team right now when it comes

298
00:14:57.840 --> 00:14:59.879
<v Speaker 2>to the resume. So I don't know, I don't know

299
00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:02.399
<v Speaker 2>enough about Georgia to to just say, like, I guarantee

300
00:15:02.440 --> 00:15:05.240
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky crushes them, But I just don't really know what

301
00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:08.879
<v Speaker 2>the only thing that could make this matchup. And again

302
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:12.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying this more so to compliment Kentucky than saying

303
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.519
<v Speaker 2>Georgia stinks. But knowing what I know about both teams,

304
00:15:15.879 --> 00:15:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I just can't really think of what odds makers here

305
00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:22.240
<v Speaker 2>are or the books are thinking that would make this

306
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.240
<v Speaker 2>like a that close of a game. I think Kentucky

307
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:27.480
<v Speaker 2>minus like four and a half would be more of

308
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:28.679
<v Speaker 2>like an appropriate line.

309
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:31.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and Georgia just kind of got the well, they

310
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:33.960
<v Speaker 3>got finished off by Old Miss this last weekend, and

311
00:15:34.039 --> 00:15:35.440
<v Speaker 3>I think that they were only.

312
00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Four ports were fifty one points.

313
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:39.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, maybe I think they might have been if

314
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:41.600
<v Speaker 3>I can't remember four, maybe they might have been ten

315
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:43.799
<v Speaker 3>point underdogs. But it was a very close because I

316
00:15:43.799 --> 00:15:45.960
<v Speaker 3>took Georgia to cover and then they just ended up

317
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:47.360
<v Speaker 3>getting blown out in the second half.

318
00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:51.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Georgia right now is fiftieth in the in the

319
00:15:51.720 --> 00:15:54.480
<v Speaker 2>Ken Palm, and again they do have a good win

320
00:15:54.519 --> 00:15:56.200
<v Speaker 2>against Saint John's, but it's not as good as you

321
00:15:56.279 --> 00:16:00.559
<v Speaker 2>probably think. And Ole Miss and you may one by

322
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:04.039
<v Speaker 2>twelve Marquette, that's their other laws, so they're twelve and two.

323
00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't want act like they're a bad team,

324
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:07.360
<v Speaker 2>trust me. I know that the SEC's loaded this year,

325
00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:09.759
<v Speaker 2>and even the bad SEC teams will probably probably be

326
00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:13.679
<v Speaker 2>pretty good in most other leagues. But I just you know,

327
00:16:13.879 --> 00:16:19.200
<v Speaker 2>I would love to to figure if somebody's like hammering

328
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:21.840
<v Speaker 2>Georgia here and they're not a Georgia fan. I would

329
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:24.360
<v Speaker 2>love to get your reasoning. And again I'm not asking

330
00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:25.720
<v Speaker 2>somebody to call in and tell me, but like I

331
00:16:25.799 --> 00:16:28.240
<v Speaker 2>just from a basketball perspective, I would love to hear

332
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.159
<v Speaker 2>somebody give me the case as to why Georgia would

333
00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:33.559
<v Speaker 2>you know? Again, Kentucky can play poorly and lose to

334
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:37.080
<v Speaker 2>a lot of teams because they're right now at their

335
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:39.159
<v Speaker 2>best based off of like the style they play in

336
00:16:39.159 --> 00:16:41.480
<v Speaker 2>what they do more so than like just having god

337
00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:43.519
<v Speaker 2>given talent. They can go out there and play poorly

338
00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:45.759
<v Speaker 2>and still win because they're just that much better than

339
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:48.080
<v Speaker 2>their opponents. That's not how this Kentucky teams build. But

340
00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, maybe I'm just getting caught up in how

341
00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:53.320
<v Speaker 2>well Kentucky played against Florida and that's a monster win

342
00:16:53.399 --> 00:16:55.240
<v Speaker 2>for him because playing on the road in the SEC

343
00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, I guess it depends on where you are.

344
00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:00.679
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I'll be completely wrong, because I just imagine there's

345
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:03.360
<v Speaker 2>not in a whole lot of momentum for Georgia basketball

346
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.279
<v Speaker 2>right now. But maybe I'm wrong. We shall see. All right,

347
00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:08.839
<v Speaker 2>let's take our first break here in the five o'clock hour.

348
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:10.200
<v Speaker 2>We'll keep it rolling along here I don't know if

349
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:12.680
<v Speaker 2>you guys have heard about that lawsuit that was filed

350
00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:16.319
<v Speaker 2>by a former makeup artist for Fox Sports who has

351
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:22.359
<v Speaker 2>filed a lawsuit against Joey Taylor Skip Bayless, the president

352
00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:27.079
<v Speaker 2>I believe of Fox Sports, and it's a juicy, juicy

353
00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:30.880
<v Speaker 2>story when it comes to the details, and I get

354
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:33.839
<v Speaker 2>why it's a big deal for a variety of reasons,

355
00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:36.559
<v Speaker 2>but I kind of feel like it's got to I

356
00:17:36.640 --> 00:17:38.200
<v Speaker 2>kind of feel like we're gonna later learn that this

357
00:17:38.279 --> 00:17:42.039
<v Speaker 2>lawsuit is thrown out, and like some of it's just like,

358
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:45.480
<v Speaker 2>as much as you want to criticize some of the

359
00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:49.880
<v Speaker 2>things that are alleged in this lawsuit, and certainly not

360
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:52.200
<v Speaker 2>a good look if it's true, why would you be

361
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:53.799
<v Speaker 2>able to sue? I know you can sue for anything,

362
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:56.200
<v Speaker 2>but like the scenario where Fox gets buried here, I

363
00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:59.240
<v Speaker 2>don't really know if that's going to play out, but

364
00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:02.240
<v Speaker 2>we can certainly talk about it. Speaking of like juicy,

365
00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:07.319
<v Speaker 2>wild raunchy, there's a Jerry Springer documentary that came out

366
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:09.880
<v Speaker 2>on Netflix and I cannot wait to watch it. That's

367
00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:13.720
<v Speaker 2>my that's that's my. Whenever my wife and I were

368
00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:17.200
<v Speaker 2>in the stages of dating, if we can call it that.

369
00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:19.160
<v Speaker 2>We were going out in middle school. That's what we

370
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:20.920
<v Speaker 2>called it. We were going together. We were yeah, we know,

371
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:22.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm not that old bro. We were going out. I

372
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:24.720
<v Speaker 2>asked her out on AOL and Sea Messenger and we

373
00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:26.839
<v Speaker 2>became an item. But like we would we would talk

374
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:29.039
<v Speaker 2>on We would talk on our our house phones not

375
00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:31.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, we didn't have cell phones back then. And

376
00:18:31.160 --> 00:18:33.480
<v Speaker 2>we would sometimes stay up and watch Jerry Springer like

377
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:35.880
<v Speaker 2>together like that, you know, we would be on the phone,

378
00:18:35.880 --> 00:18:37.160
<v Speaker 2>she beat her house, be at my house and we'd

379
00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:40.960
<v Speaker 2>watched Jerry Springer and like, realize how wild the world was?

380
00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:43.359
<v Speaker 2>That is Jerry Springer. So that's great. Way we have

381
00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:45.359
<v Speaker 2>to watch it. Oh yeah, I can't wait. It's on Netflix.

382
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:47.240
<v Speaker 2>So we'll finish strong here. At least we'll try. We'll

383
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:48.880
<v Speaker 2>give it our best effort. Stick with us right here

384
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:50.799
<v Speaker 2>at Coffee and Company. Fuel by Thornton's on Sports Talk

385
00:18:50.839 --> 00:18:54.160
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety. I think it's pretty obvious that people love

386
00:18:54.279 --> 00:18:58.799
<v Speaker 2>drama and controversy, scandal. I mean, you don't like to

387
00:18:58.799 --> 00:19:00.960
<v Speaker 2>be involved in it esecially if it's a bad look

388
00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:03.680
<v Speaker 2>for you, But it's it's kind of like a car

389
00:19:03.759 --> 00:19:07.279
<v Speaker 2>wreck where if it's bad. People can't get enough of it.

390
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:10.160
<v Speaker 2>They want to read details, and I don't. I guess

391
00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:13.240
<v Speaker 2>that's just how we're wired. Sobolutely. I think Fox Sports,

392
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:16.960
<v Speaker 2>which I'll be honest with you, I've always I've always

393
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:20.680
<v Speaker 2>felt like Fox Sports does a good job when it

394
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:25.920
<v Speaker 2>comes to production with their live daily sports talk shows.

395
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:27.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, clearly, they do a lot of the same

396
00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:30.160
<v Speaker 2>stuff that ESPN does, and I think they've got some

397
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.319
<v Speaker 2>pretty good resources. I think they've got some talented people

398
00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:36.200
<v Speaker 2>that do a good job when it comes to whatever

399
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:38.519
<v Speaker 2>this is, sports, media, entertainment, whatever you want to call it.

400
00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:41.200
<v Speaker 2>The roundtable shows, that kind of stuff. Colin I think

401
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:44.880
<v Speaker 2>is you know, an acquired taste. But I clearly I

402
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:47.680
<v Speaker 2>am aware of how talented he is and biovery metric.

403
00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:49.319
<v Speaker 2>He's one of the best that's ever done this. So

404
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:53.240
<v Speaker 2>they just don't get as much love because they're they're

405
00:19:53.319 --> 00:19:57.359
<v Speaker 2>not maybe ever going to be where people just turn

406
00:19:57.440 --> 00:19:59.279
<v Speaker 2>to when I'm when I say Fox, I'm mean FS

407
00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:01.880
<v Speaker 2>one because he ha, of course that's all they do sports.

408
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:06.079
<v Speaker 2>But Fox. You know, there's Fox News, there's Fox affiliates

409
00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:09.240
<v Speaker 2>of course, like WDRB here in town. But FS one

410
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:11.880
<v Speaker 2>is where all of their sports content lives twenty four

411
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:14.720
<v Speaker 2>to seven, and it's just still not a natural thing

412
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:17.880
<v Speaker 2>for people who are like me. They just consume sports

413
00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:21.000
<v Speaker 2>to wear. Hey, there's nothing on I'm gonna throw on.

414
00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:24.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna throw it on FS one to watch Colin,

415
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:26.079
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. Like, I just don't think

416
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:28.640
<v Speaker 2>many people do that. And there's not as many games

417
00:20:28.640 --> 00:20:30.599
<v Speaker 2>on FS one either, so it's just not They just

418
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:32.640
<v Speaker 2>don't get the same viewership that ESPN does and they

419
00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:34.759
<v Speaker 2>probably never will. But I've always felt like, you know,

420
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:36.680
<v Speaker 2>despite that, they do a pretty good job, and I'm

421
00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:39.720
<v Speaker 2>always reminded by that whenever I consume any of their stuff.

422
00:20:39.720 --> 00:20:42.160
<v Speaker 2>I think their college basketball coverage is really good. So

423
00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:44.640
<v Speaker 2>I bring all this up to say that I feel

424
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:49.640
<v Speaker 2>like this lawsuit that became news the last couple of days,

425
00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:54.160
<v Speaker 2>it's probably more than these people have been talked about,

426
00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:57.680
<v Speaker 2>like maybe ever. Like Joy Taylor is a known person

427
00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:01.440
<v Speaker 2>within sports media for a variety of reasons. She works

428
00:21:01.480 --> 00:21:04.160
<v Speaker 2>on a platform like Fox Sports. You see her on

429
00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:06.720
<v Speaker 2>her own show on FS one, she was a part

430
00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:09.680
<v Speaker 2>of Colin Show for quite some time, and also she's

431
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:12.400
<v Speaker 2>a very attractive woman like that also is a factor too, So,

432
00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:16.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, Joy Taylor's a known person. But unfortunately for her,

433
00:21:16.920 --> 00:21:19.720
<v Speaker 2>or maybe she doesn't care, I don't know, she's probably

434
00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:23.240
<v Speaker 2>getting more discussion right now among sports fans and of

435
00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:25.519
<v Speaker 2>course the Internet than she ever has, you know, and

436
00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:29.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it speaks to how distant they probably are

437
00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:32.119
<v Speaker 2>from the four letter network, but also that this kind

438
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:34.480
<v Speaker 2>of stuff will get attention more so than any take

439
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:37.839
<v Speaker 2>you give about a football player or a basketball team,

440
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.240
<v Speaker 2>that kind of stuff. So here's what's out there. The

441
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:46.559
<v Speaker 2>lawsuit is, it was followed last week, and it accuses

442
00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:49.960
<v Speaker 2>three different defendants. Actually I'm not sure if there's three there,

443
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:54.960
<v Speaker 2>maybe more, but it's exec executive vice president of content

444
00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:58.480
<v Speaker 2>at Fox Charlie Dixon Skip Bayless. Of course, I'm sure

445
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:00.640
<v Speaker 2>you guys are familiar with he recently left to Fox Sports.

446
00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:03.400
<v Speaker 2>Maybe this was a factor in that. And also Joy Taylor,

447
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:07.279
<v Speaker 2>who had mentioned so front Front Office Sports. They're the

448
00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:11.200
<v Speaker 2>ones who first reported on this lawsuit, and they they

449
00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:14.200
<v Speaker 2>have all the details. And here's what is alleged. There's

450
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:18.319
<v Speaker 2>a former makeup artist, is a makeup artist or a

451
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:21.319
<v Speaker 2>makeup person. I feel like I'm disrespecting that that that career,

452
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:24.400
<v Speaker 2>that that occupation, and I know it's very important and

453
00:22:24.440 --> 00:22:25.680
<v Speaker 2>they're very good at what they do, so I don't

454
00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:27.240
<v Speaker 2>want to do I don't I'm not meaning, I'm just

455
00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:29.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't wear makeup. I probably could use it, but

456
00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:31.880
<v Speaker 2>probably look better. So I don't know what it's called.

457
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:36.240
<v Speaker 2>But someone who was some I mean, help me out here, Austin.

458
00:22:36.519 --> 00:22:38.400
<v Speaker 2>If you work for a company and you're doing the

459
00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:41.079
<v Speaker 2>makeup for the talent on TV, are you a makeup artist?

460
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:42.759
<v Speaker 2>Is that I feel like I'm I feel like I'm

461
00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:44.799
<v Speaker 2>making up that title. But is that a thing? I guess?

462
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:48.079
<v Speaker 3>I guess so, like if you're on a set like that,

463
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:51.200
<v Speaker 3>you're definitely part of the hair and makeup team, and

464
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:53.279
<v Speaker 3>I guess you're a technical job would be called I.

465
00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:55.039
<v Speaker 2>Know you're you're important, but I just I feel like,

466
00:22:55.160 --> 00:22:57.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's certain In fact, there's a lot of

467
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:00.880
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of professions out there, gigs if you

468
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:04.519
<v Speaker 2>will that they like to be called something, but if

469
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:06.680
<v Speaker 2>they're called something else, they're not going to be happy.

470
00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Like for example, by saying makeup artist, I feel like,

471
00:23:10.160 --> 00:23:12.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, that could be the right way to do it,

472
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:14.680
<v Speaker 2>or it's I could be basically doing the same things

473
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:16.680
<v Speaker 2>when you call a pipe fit or a plumber. You're

474
00:23:16.759 --> 00:23:18.359
<v Speaker 2>likely going to get punched in the mouth by some

475
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:21.039
<v Speaker 2>blue collar guy who doesn't take that well and he

476
00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:24.119
<v Speaker 2>thinks it's disrespect. So no disrespect to the makeup industry.

477
00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:28.960
<v Speaker 2>I just don't know exactly what the title is. We'll

478
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:31.960
<v Speaker 2>roll with that. But she filed a lawsuit last week

479
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:37.519
<v Speaker 2>alleging that the executive vice president of Content Dixon grabbed

480
00:23:37.559 --> 00:23:40.440
<v Speaker 2>her her ear end at a birthday party in West

481
00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Hollywood during her time there. She no longer works for

482
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:45.039
<v Speaker 2>FS One by the Way or Fox, and she also

483
00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:49.559
<v Speaker 2>said she relayed that encounter to joe Taylor, and Joey

484
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Taylor allegedly told her like, get over it, deal with it,

485
00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:55.799
<v Speaker 2>that kind of thing, and she was bothered by that.

486
00:23:56.279 --> 00:24:00.279
<v Speaker 2>So after starting work on the Undisputed Morning Show with

487
00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:04.519
<v Speaker 2>Skip Bayless, the suit alleges that Skip began giving this

488
00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:08.039
<v Speaker 2>woman lingering hugs and kisses on the cheek while putting

489
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:12.200
<v Speaker 2>his body against hers and pressing against her her chesticles

490
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:15.880
<v Speaker 2>if you will. The single mother alleges in her lawsuit

491
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.000
<v Speaker 2>that she repeatedly told Bayliss she was not interested in

492
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:20.960
<v Speaker 2>him and did not quote date at work. She also

493
00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:23.960
<v Speaker 2>claims she told Bayliss she was suffering from ovarian cancer

494
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:26.799
<v Speaker 2>after developing issues with her left ovary in an effort

495
00:24:26.839 --> 00:24:29.799
<v Speaker 2>to halt his advances. Instead, Bayliss became more aggressive over

496
00:24:29.799 --> 00:24:32.720
<v Speaker 2>the years. According to the suit, he allegedly offered her

497
00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:35.680
<v Speaker 2>one point five million dollars to have sex with him

498
00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:38.839
<v Speaker 2>and claimed he could quote change her life. The suit

499
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:42.359
<v Speaker 2>also claims Bayless accused her of sleeping with Shannon Sharp,

500
00:24:42.680 --> 00:24:48.559
<v Speaker 2>his co star on Undisputed. So when it comes to Bayless,

501
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:51.319
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's that's that's not a good look. You're

502
00:24:51.319 --> 00:24:55.400
<v Speaker 2>a creep at work, according to these allegations, and that's

503
00:24:55.759 --> 00:24:57.960
<v Speaker 2>we'll get into the other part of this lawsuit, but

504
00:24:58.000 --> 00:25:00.359
<v Speaker 2>that that's the first red flag to me that this

505
00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:03.599
<v Speaker 2>can't be real. I know Skip's got money and ain't

506
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:05.920
<v Speaker 2>none for Skip to drop a bag, Yeah, he ain't

507
00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:10.319
<v Speaker 2>paying one. Who's there? Who would you? One million? Like

508
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:13.839
<v Speaker 2>one million dollars would have to be like a penny

509
00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:17.400
<v Speaker 2>to you for you to pay, I mean, paying to

510
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:19.720
<v Speaker 2>have sex with anybody to me would be the most

511
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:21.880
<v Speaker 2>like humiliating thing in the world. Not to say, like

512
00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:25.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, I mean that's just for my personal appearance.

513
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:27.799
<v Speaker 2>If I ever needed to pay a woman to want

514
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:30.599
<v Speaker 2>to have, you know, relations with me. It would make

515
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:33.359
<v Speaker 2>me feel like I'm like, I'm you know, it's your

516
00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:36.240
<v Speaker 2>last resort. Yeah, but all I mean, one of it

517
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:37.960
<v Speaker 2>would it would be gross. It would just be like,

518
00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:40.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, I can't relate. But even if like I

519
00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:43.240
<v Speaker 2>was in that world of like, yeah, that's what we

520
00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:44.799
<v Speaker 2>do now. If we want to hook up with women,

521
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:46.759
<v Speaker 2>we pay them, Like I'm sure, I mean clearly, that

522
00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:48.680
<v Speaker 2>is a world where women probably make a lot of

523
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:50.480
<v Speaker 2>money doing that. And hey, if you're cool with it,

524
00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:53.039
<v Speaker 2>find by me. You do you, But nobody's paying one

525
00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:55.200
<v Speaker 2>point five million to have sex with anybody, Like I

526
00:25:55.240 --> 00:25:57.640
<v Speaker 2>don't care rich you are. That makes no sense, Like

527
00:25:57.720 --> 00:25:59.599
<v Speaker 2>that makes like that's where if you were going to

528
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:01.920
<v Speaker 2>try to like embellius, you embellished way too much because

529
00:26:01.960 --> 00:26:05.400
<v Speaker 2>that just doesn't like that just can't be real. Like

530
00:26:05.440 --> 00:26:08.839
<v Speaker 2>he could be a ten times bigger creep than any

531
00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:12.039
<v Speaker 2>of these allegations tell us. But that's where I just

532
00:26:12.279 --> 00:26:17.160
<v Speaker 2>there's no there's no way like that anybody would would

533
00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:21.759
<v Speaker 2>do that. So maybe it was just him talking, or

534
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:23.839
<v Speaker 2>maybe she made it up and exaggerated. I don't know,

535
00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:27.319
<v Speaker 2>But anyways, one week later after he offered, you know,

536
00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:29.480
<v Speaker 2>to change her life and said he'd pay her one

537
00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:34.119
<v Speaker 2>point five mil to to knock boots. She she says

538
00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:37.720
<v Speaker 2>that he made another advance at her, and she responded

539
00:26:37.759 --> 00:26:41.119
<v Speaker 2>by saying, Skip, stop, you have a wife. Bayliss responded,

540
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:43.680
<v Speaker 2>aren't you Muslim? Doesn't your dad have three to four wives?

541
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:46.559
<v Speaker 2>So she responded that her father was dead, and mister

542
00:26:46.599 --> 00:26:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Baylis looked taken, looked at look taken, aback. She made

543
00:26:50.039 --> 00:26:53.319
<v Speaker 2>an excuse to leave. So that's what we know about

544
00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:56.680
<v Speaker 2>the lawsuit and what they what she alleges against Skip Bayless. Now,

545
00:26:56.680 --> 00:27:00.240
<v Speaker 2>but Joy Taylor again, if what is alleged, I get

546
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:02.519
<v Speaker 2>why people would say that's a bad look, and I

547
00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:09.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, I mean, I get it, but what in

548
00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:11.519
<v Speaker 2>this law like, I just don't understand why Joey Taylor

549
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:16.039
<v Speaker 2>can be sued for this because what she's being accused

550
00:27:16.079 --> 00:27:20.119
<v Speaker 2>of is basically no longer being friends with this woman

551
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:24.640
<v Speaker 2>because she clearly they weren't on the same page as

552
00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:27.279
<v Speaker 2>far as how to deal with I guess horned up

553
00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:29.599
<v Speaker 2>dudes at work. I don't know. But it says here

554
00:27:29.640 --> 00:27:34.400
<v Speaker 2>that meanwhile, the suit alleges Taylor began insulting this makeup

555
00:27:34.480 --> 00:27:37.200
<v Speaker 2>artist on a personal and professional level after their friendship ended.

556
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:40.880
<v Speaker 2>The suit also alleges that Taylor mocked the English pronunciation

557
00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:43.240
<v Speaker 2>of this woman's last name, who is of Persian descent.

558
00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:51.599
<v Speaker 2>So the lawsuit claims that Joey Taylor, essentially, I guess,

559
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:57.720
<v Speaker 2>slept her way to the top. There's accusations of affairs

560
00:27:57.960 --> 00:28:02.119
<v Speaker 2>or just flings. I guess with manual acho is it ho?

561
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Or I don't can't I ever get yeah aho. So

562
00:28:05.920 --> 00:28:08.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, I don't think. I don't think Shannon Sharp

563
00:28:08.440 --> 00:28:10.519
<v Speaker 2>is included in this as far as any allegy, he's not.

564
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:12.319
<v Speaker 2>He's not one of the people that's getting sued. But

565
00:28:13.519 --> 00:28:17.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, long story short, this this woman is alleging

566
00:28:17.599 --> 00:28:23.799
<v Speaker 2>that she's she's owed something because she was mistreated at

567
00:28:23.839 --> 00:28:26.240
<v Speaker 2>work for sexual harassment with Skip Bayless and of course

568
00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:29.880
<v Speaker 2>the vice president of content who allegedly grabbed her butt.

569
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:32.960
<v Speaker 2>And you know that you know clearly that that that's

570
00:28:32.960 --> 00:28:35.240
<v Speaker 2>an issue. Like if what if in a world where

571
00:28:35.279 --> 00:28:40.920
<v Speaker 2>what she said about Skip and the VP of content

572
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:44.920
<v Speaker 2>is true Charlie Dixon, then then they're in trouble. I mean,

573
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:47.359
<v Speaker 2>it's doesn't work there anymore. So you know, if he's

574
00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:49.119
<v Speaker 2>being sued individually, then I guess he'll have to he'll

575
00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:51.200
<v Speaker 2>have to pay out, he'll have to pay if if

576
00:28:51.240 --> 00:28:53.759
<v Speaker 2>he's if he's found to be you know, in the

577
00:28:53.799 --> 00:28:55.920
<v Speaker 2>wrong here, and she wins her lawsuit. But what i'd

578
00:28:56.039 --> 00:28:59.240
<v Speaker 2>like the Joy Taylor stuff, Like it's easy to you know,

579
00:28:59.519 --> 00:29:02.440
<v Speaker 2>make her a bigger talking point because here's what happens.

580
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Nobody's surprised when dudes are like that. I hate that,

581
00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:09.039
<v Speaker 2>but like they shouldn't be like that. Most I would

582
00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:12.680
<v Speaker 2>assume are not pervs and creeps. But the shock value

583
00:29:12.680 --> 00:29:14.519
<v Speaker 2>for people when they found out somebody got a little

584
00:29:14.519 --> 00:29:16.720
<v Speaker 2>too horned up at work and did something they shouldn't do.

585
00:29:16.839 --> 00:29:19.119
<v Speaker 2>The shock level for that is really low, right, I

586
00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:20.519
<v Speaker 2>mean I hate to say that, but come on, like,

587
00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:23.599
<v Speaker 2>let's just be honest here. It shouldn't be condoned, it

588
00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:26.799
<v Speaker 2>should be reported, all that stuff. But it's not something

589
00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:30.039
<v Speaker 2>you're like, oh, I couldn't believe it. Although I am

590
00:29:30.039 --> 00:29:31.680
<v Speaker 2>somebody that I guess is naive to where I just

591
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:34.759
<v Speaker 2>assume that people that have great positions, you know, like

592
00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:37.039
<v Speaker 2>being Skip Bayless, a loud mouth that is paid a

593
00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:38.599
<v Speaker 2>lot of money to you know, be a loud mouth,

594
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:40.799
<v Speaker 2>pretty good gig if you can get it, say things

595
00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:42.519
<v Speaker 2>you don't even believe, but just you know, give the

596
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:46.000
<v Speaker 2>most outrageous take just because it'll get attention. Vice President

597
00:29:46.039 --> 00:29:47.920
<v Speaker 2>of the Content at Fox Sports. I would imagine that's

598
00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:50.279
<v Speaker 2>a pretty prominent position for Charlie Dixon. I just live

599
00:29:50.319 --> 00:29:51.799
<v Speaker 2>in a world where I give people to benefit the

600
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:56.079
<v Speaker 2>doubt for not being dumbasses, not being ignorant, to thinking

601
00:29:56.119 --> 00:29:58.400
<v Speaker 2>that they won't get caught, thinking to where it won't

602
00:29:58.400 --> 00:30:02.960
<v Speaker 2>like really thinking, yak, probably I could probably do this

603
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:05.720
<v Speaker 2>or do that and get away with it, But man,

604
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:07.880
<v Speaker 2>is it worth it? Because all it takes is me

605
00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:10.799
<v Speaker 2>getting out it or getting caught, and it could ruin

606
00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:13.440
<v Speaker 2>my life, ruin my family's life, or you know, I

607
00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:15.440
<v Speaker 2>could just get caught being a creep and I don't

608
00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:19.920
<v Speaker 2>want to do that. So I'm always a little hesitant

609
00:30:19.960 --> 00:30:21.559
<v Speaker 2>to believe a lot of this stuff. But I've learned

610
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:24.319
<v Speaker 2>over the years I shouldn't give these people the benefit

611
00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:25.839
<v Speaker 2>of it out because you know, what I've realized is

612
00:30:25.880 --> 00:30:30.640
<v Speaker 2>i've gotten older. It's not about being like relatable, you know,

613
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:34.880
<v Speaker 2>it's it's it. You know, these people don't operate like

614
00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:37.839
<v Speaker 2>average joes because they're not. They're they're like, they're not

615
00:30:38.759 --> 00:30:41.440
<v Speaker 2>they don't have the awareness because they're in a different

616
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:43.400
<v Speaker 2>world when it comes to like who they are, Like

617
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:45.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to say they're different humans, but they're different,

618
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:47.920
<v Speaker 2>you know. They just it's they cannot relate to the

619
00:30:47.960 --> 00:30:50.880
<v Speaker 2>average person that is oftentimes realizing thinking about like should

620
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:52.440
<v Speaker 2>I do this? Should I do that? Like when you

621
00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:58.400
<v Speaker 2>are successful, wealthy, in a prominent position, and that's a

622
00:30:58.440 --> 00:31:00.880
<v Speaker 2>position that you've established for yourself for quite some time,

623
00:31:00.880 --> 00:31:02.359
<v Speaker 2>I think it would be easy to just get caught

624
00:31:02.440 --> 00:31:04.880
<v Speaker 2>up and like, yeah, I can do anything because I'm

625
00:31:05.480 --> 00:31:08.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm such and such. So the dude stuff, I don't

626
00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:11.119
<v Speaker 2>know if it's true or not. But Joy Taylor became

627
00:31:11.160 --> 00:31:14.400
<v Speaker 2>the biggest talking point because she's very attractive and it's

628
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:19.200
<v Speaker 2>a juicy story. Wow, she was hooking up with stars

629
00:31:19.240 --> 00:31:22.839
<v Speaker 2>of these Fox shows. She was cool with being I

630
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:26.960
<v Speaker 2>guess potentially groped by the VP of content like her coworker,

631
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:31.440
<v Speaker 2>because she knew that if she I guess was willing, yeah,

632
00:31:31.480 --> 00:31:33.920
<v Speaker 2>willing to play the game, then she could professionally benefit

633
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:36.079
<v Speaker 2>from it. You know, Like that wouldn't be a shock

634
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:38.599
<v Speaker 2>at all if that's true. But that's not something you

635
00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:41.599
<v Speaker 2>can be suit for. Is it, like, what could she

636
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:44.000
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the day, what she's accused of

637
00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:46.000
<v Speaker 2>doing to where like this woman has a claim is

638
00:31:46.000 --> 00:31:48.839
<v Speaker 2>that she was mean to her, they stopped being friends

639
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:51.119
<v Speaker 2>like that, That's not all I mean would what would

640
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:54.119
<v Speaker 2>Joey Taylor owe this woman other than maybe an apology

641
00:31:54.400 --> 00:31:56.359
<v Speaker 2>for being mean to her and not being her friend

642
00:31:56.359 --> 00:31:58.519
<v Speaker 2>anymore and telling her that she had no sympathy for

643
00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:00.799
<v Speaker 2>her allegedly. Again, I'm not saying I'm not defending joe

644
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:03.799
<v Speaker 2>Taylor as if what she did is great and everybody

645
00:32:03.839 --> 00:32:06.039
<v Speaker 2>should do it. I just don't think it's something that

646
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:08.960
<v Speaker 2>like she can be held accountable for with a lawsuit.

647
00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:11.039
<v Speaker 2>But again, I'm not a lawyer, so what do I know.

648
00:32:12.359 --> 00:32:14.279
<v Speaker 2>But and the thing is, it's a big It's one

649
00:32:14.319 --> 00:32:15.519
<v Speaker 2>of the big stories out there right now, right You're

650
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:16.079
<v Speaker 2>seeing it everywhere.

651
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:19.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's everywhere. And the memes have been funny. I'm sorry,

652
00:32:19.680 --> 00:32:22.039
<v Speaker 3>I'd hate to make you a light of situation like that,

653
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:24.119
<v Speaker 3>but we're a part of meme days and social media,

654
00:32:24.240 --> 00:32:26.759
<v Speaker 3>so those are always funny and seeing the comments section

655
00:32:26.920 --> 00:32:30.759
<v Speaker 3>the things. But skip There's an interesting quote here from

656
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:33.160
<v Speaker 3>Stephen A. Smith where he said I've known quote, I've

657
00:32:33.160 --> 00:32:35.480
<v Speaker 3>known Skip for twenty five years, and I can't imagine it.

658
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:38.519
<v Speaker 3>I can't imagine especially when they brought up one point

659
00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:41.119
<v Speaker 3>five million Skip Bayless that I know has a hard

660
00:32:41.119 --> 00:32:44.440
<v Speaker 3>time giving away fifteen dollars and that makes sense. And

661
00:32:44.519 --> 00:32:46.920
<v Speaker 3>also Skip Bayless kind of has a hot wife. There's

662
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:49.920
<v Speaker 3>always Ernest Stein. They're always talking about her. She's always

663
00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:52.640
<v Speaker 3>brought up as like a wholesome individual and as weird

664
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:55.200
<v Speaker 3>as Skip Bayless can be, I'm also seeing that as

665
00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:55.799
<v Speaker 3>a hard time.

666
00:32:56.160 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and look, he's a little off, but one thing

667
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:03.640
<v Speaker 2>that became a really so when Skip and stephen A

668
00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:08.599
<v Speaker 2>were together, I don't remember, really, I never cared enough

669
00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:10.880
<v Speaker 2>to to do a whole lot of looking into it.

670
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:13.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm not I don't. I don't consume either of their

671
00:33:13.559 --> 00:33:17.160
<v Speaker 2>shows and didn't when they were together, and I don't now.

672
00:33:17.279 --> 00:33:20.039
<v Speaker 2>I was a huge fan of First Take, but it's just,

673
00:33:20.039 --> 00:33:21.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's just not really my cup and see

674
00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:25.200
<v Speaker 2>and I see that for what it is, and not

675
00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:26.880
<v Speaker 2>to act like I'm on a different level than other

676
00:33:26.920 --> 00:33:29.279
<v Speaker 2>sports fans to where like but like they don't believe

677
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:30.880
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the things they say. I don't think

678
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:33.440
<v Speaker 2>they're there to not be right or break news. They're

679
00:33:33.480 --> 00:33:36.359
<v Speaker 2>there to entertain there, that's their job. So the more

680
00:33:36.359 --> 00:33:39.519
<v Speaker 2>outlandish they are, the more people are going to want

681
00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:41.599
<v Speaker 2>to clown them, the more people are good. Like, is

682
00:33:41.640 --> 00:33:45.720
<v Speaker 2>it Skip that hates Lebron? Yes, yes, Skip's like the

683
00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:48.680
<v Speaker 2>old time Lebron hater and he likes and he likes

684
00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:52.119
<v Speaker 2>the Cowboys. Yeah, so you know, if the Cowboys suck,

685
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:54.839
<v Speaker 2>then people are going to want to be or want

686
00:33:54.839 --> 00:33:57.480
<v Speaker 2>to be locked in and to see what Skip passes. Yeah,

687
00:33:57.480 --> 00:34:01.200
<v Speaker 2>and if Lebron tanks or he does is phenomenal, you

688
00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:03.640
<v Speaker 2>want to hear the reaction because he'll find a way

689
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:07.119
<v Speaker 2>no matter what to doubt Lebron or he'll you know,

690
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:09.920
<v Speaker 2>be there to dance on his grave and put on

691
00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:12.400
<v Speaker 2>a good performance doing so. So like it's just a

692
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:14.519
<v Speaker 2>never ending cycle and it works these guys, these guys

693
00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:15.639
<v Speaker 2>aren't making this money.

694
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:18.760
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Coffee and Company with Nick Coffee on

695
00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:20.679
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven ninety.

696
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:32.119
<v Speaker 2>US Austin. Are you in a neighborhood Facebook group?

697
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:35.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it's not the current one I live in. It's

698
00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:37.800
<v Speaker 3>one where I still live with my parents because it's

699
00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:38.880
<v Speaker 3>like the German town.

700
00:34:39.159 --> 00:34:41.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay Facebook group so I stay close to that. Is

701
00:34:41.400 --> 00:34:45.000
<v Speaker 2>it a real treat, Yes, absolutely that. The last few

702
00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:49.000
<v Speaker 2>days have been fun, so I it's one of the

703
00:34:49.039 --> 00:34:52.559
<v Speaker 2>best things Facebook has. In all honesty, it is valuable

704
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:56.760
<v Speaker 2>to have that platform there to get updates, like if

705
00:34:56.760 --> 00:34:59.960
<v Speaker 2>somebody said, hey, just found out you know, the trash

706
00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:03.400
<v Speaker 2>won't be running waste maned Like there's value in having

707
00:35:03.440 --> 00:35:06.280
<v Speaker 2>sort of, you know, a community forum where people can

708
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.800
<v Speaker 2>talk about things going on in the neighborhood. But there's

709
00:35:08.800 --> 00:35:13.239
<v Speaker 2>also you know, like there's occasionally stuff that's that's out

710
00:35:13.239 --> 00:35:15.760
<v Speaker 2>there that I just think like, wow, okay, that's what

711
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:18.559
<v Speaker 2>you that's what you thought was necessary to share in here,

712
00:35:18.599 --> 00:35:20.239
<v Speaker 2>So I kind of can't get enough of it. People

713
00:35:20.280 --> 00:35:23.639
<v Speaker 2>also kind of get passive aggressive, and sometimes there's comment

714
00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:26.400
<v Speaker 2>fights with with people, and it's just the neighborhood that

715
00:35:26.400 --> 00:35:29.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm in now, it's it's much more mild than it's

716
00:35:29.400 --> 00:35:32.760
<v Speaker 2>it's used like ninety nine percent of the time in

717
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:34.880
<v Speaker 2>a good way. Where I used to live, it was

718
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:38.239
<v Speaker 2>like we had some real drama with the HOA president

719
00:35:38.320 --> 00:35:42.159
<v Speaker 2>getting voted out, and it was real personal and it

720
00:35:42.199 --> 00:35:43.719
<v Speaker 2>didn't impact me in any way, but it was it

721
00:35:43.760 --> 00:35:45.960
<v Speaker 2>was kind of fun to watch that drama. But I'm

722
00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:48.760
<v Speaker 2>in one now that is in the This isn't necessarily

723
00:35:48.760 --> 00:35:50.880
<v Speaker 2>my neighborhood, but it's more of, like I guess, my community.

724
00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:54.920
<v Speaker 2>It's it's the Zonting message board group, which I joined,

725
00:35:55.599 --> 00:36:01.360
<v Speaker 2>and it somebody's just posted who is slash was the

726
00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:04.679
<v Speaker 2>idiot sitting on the edge of zoning east of stave

727
00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:08.199
<v Speaker 2>Mille Road, Like they just throw that out there, that's it,

728
00:36:08.320 --> 00:36:12.559
<v Speaker 2>as as as a new post within the message board

729
00:36:12.559 --> 00:36:15.480
<v Speaker 2>here on Facebook for the community. And I'm so tempted

730
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:18.039
<v Speaker 2>to just write it was me, come do something about it,

731
00:36:18.079 --> 00:36:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't even know what what he but like

732
00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:22.559
<v Speaker 2>this could be fun, right, Like of course, I mean

733
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:24.920
<v Speaker 2>maybe I end up you know, maybe I end up

734
00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:27.159
<v Speaker 2>learning that I shouldn't, you know, mess with me. But

735
00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:32.320
<v Speaker 2>like I just again, like Facebook, I just I see

736
00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:35.679
<v Speaker 2>things on there at times, and I'm like, what would

737
00:36:35.800 --> 00:36:40.000
<v Speaker 2>lead someone to bring that opinion here? You know, like,

738
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:42.239
<v Speaker 2>what what what are we doing here? It's not a

739
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:43.760
<v Speaker 2>picture of your car too, is it? Or is it

740
00:36:43.840 --> 00:36:46.159
<v Speaker 2>just the post? Oh no, no, they're not even talking

741
00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:49.000
<v Speaker 2>about me. Oh okay, that would be great though if

742
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:51.159
<v Speaker 2>it was you. No, no, yeah, I didn't think about that,

743
00:36:51.239 --> 00:36:52.800
<v Speaker 2>but no, it wasn't. It was no, I'm out of

744
00:36:52.800 --> 00:36:56.400
<v Speaker 2>the way. Therefore, and again this that this is more

745
00:36:56.480 --> 00:37:01.119
<v Speaker 2>for probably five ish neighbor hoods that are all kind

746
00:37:01.159 --> 00:37:04.119
<v Speaker 2>of in the same Kennedy. And then there's areas out

747
00:37:04.119 --> 00:37:06.079
<v Speaker 2>here that are not in a neighborhood, just people who've

748
00:37:06.119 --> 00:37:08.280
<v Speaker 2>got homes and a bunch of land and all that

749
00:37:08.360 --> 00:37:12.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of stuff. So uh I, but here here's the thing,

750
00:37:12.760 --> 00:37:14.159
<v Speaker 2>like this, this is probably not a good thing for

751
00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:15.599
<v Speaker 2>me to admit, but I'm just gonna be honest, like

752
00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:18.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know who he's talking about or what this

753
00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:21.400
<v Speaker 2>even means, but I'm gonna be checking in on this

754
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:23.639
<v Speaker 2>post every now and then to see if anybody figured out,

755
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:27.199
<v Speaker 2>like who the idiot allegedly was, and like what happened,

756
00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Like are we going to get a fight here? Like

757
00:37:29.039 --> 00:37:33.360
<v Speaker 2>what's but I mean, he didn't even accuse or say

758
00:37:33.400 --> 00:37:35.239
<v Speaker 2>anything was wrong. He just wanted to know who the

759
00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:37.800
<v Speaker 2>idiot was that was sitting Are we talking about sitting

760
00:37:37.800 --> 00:37:40.800
<v Speaker 2>in a car? They sitting on the ground, Like it's

761
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:43.800
<v Speaker 2>just it's wild. But the first comment is from an

762
00:37:43.840 --> 00:37:45.760
<v Speaker 2>older woman. Well I don't know how she old she is.

763
00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Actually I shouldn't say that because I she may be listening.

764
00:37:48.480 --> 00:37:50.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure, but they just responded I don't know,

765
00:37:52.159 --> 00:37:55.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. And the discourse on those are hilarious. Yeah,

766
00:37:55.880 --> 00:37:59.880
<v Speaker 2>one person just has question marks asking, But you know,

767
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:02.199
<v Speaker 2>it's just it's an interesting place.

768
00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:05.320
<v Speaker 3>The comment section has become the greatest of all things

769
00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:06.280
<v Speaker 3>on social media.

770
00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:08.199
<v Speaker 2>Oh, no doubt about it, No doubt about it. And

771
00:38:08.239 --> 00:38:11.960
<v Speaker 2>I uh, I guess it's really just like for me,

772
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:15.159
<v Speaker 2>if I'm ever gonna, like really feel the need to

773
00:38:16.519 --> 00:38:20.239
<v Speaker 2>let out something that I want people to know how

774
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:22.920
<v Speaker 2>I feel, and I don't have this platform like I

775
00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:24.880
<v Speaker 2>usually will, you know, i'll tweet something. I don't do

776
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:26.880
<v Speaker 2>it as much as I used to, But like, if

777
00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:31.239
<v Speaker 2>Austin wants to remind people that Noah Waterman's going proing

778
00:38:31.280 --> 00:38:35.000
<v Speaker 2>something besides basketball, where's he going to send that energy Twitter? Right, right?

779
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:37.199
<v Speaker 2>Because that's that toxic space. So that's just kind of

780
00:38:37.199 --> 00:38:39.760
<v Speaker 2>how it how it is going to engagement. Yeah. Yeah,

781
00:38:39.800 --> 00:38:42.960
<v Speaker 2>so I guess maybe like what they would say the

782
00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:46.280
<v Speaker 2>same thing about us doing that on Twitter, but they

783
00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:49.639
<v Speaker 2>do it on Facebook about nonsports stuff. Because again, I'm

784
00:38:49.639 --> 00:38:51.840
<v Speaker 2>just trying to like I'm trying to think, like, Okay,

785
00:38:51.840 --> 00:38:54.880
<v Speaker 2>what would lead you to think that your anger, your concern,

786
00:38:54.960 --> 00:38:57.679
<v Speaker 2>your issue with this. I mean it's one thing of

787
00:38:57.719 --> 00:39:00.000
<v Speaker 2>like you're like, hey, because for example this, I still

788
00:39:00.039 --> 00:39:02.360
<v Speaker 2>would never do it because I just would. It's just

789
00:39:02.360 --> 00:39:06.519
<v Speaker 2>not me. But we've got people kids sledding in certain

790
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:11.039
<v Speaker 2>areas and they're ending up kind of finishing their their

791
00:39:11.159 --> 00:39:15.360
<v Speaker 2>ride down a hill, sliding into somebody's property, right, probably

792
00:39:15.360 --> 00:39:19.280
<v Speaker 2>not harming anything or causing any damage. But as a homeowner,

793
00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:22.519
<v Speaker 2>property owner, if a kid gets hurt doing something on

794
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:24.880
<v Speaker 2>your property, you could be found, you know, so you know,

795
00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:27.360
<v Speaker 2>you just gotta be you gotta be careful. So like

796
00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:29.159
<v Speaker 2>that's a legitimate thing where you're telling people, hey, I

797
00:39:29.199 --> 00:39:31.360
<v Speaker 2>know the kids wanna wanna sled but can please make

798
00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:33.599
<v Speaker 2>sure they stay, you know, in certain areas because I

799
00:39:33.599 --> 00:39:35.280
<v Speaker 2>don't want somebody to get hurt and you know us

800
00:39:35.360 --> 00:39:37.039
<v Speaker 2>not be there that kind of stuff. So like that

801
00:39:37.039 --> 00:39:39.199
<v Speaker 2>that's where Okay, I still would have a hard time

802
00:39:39.320 --> 00:39:40.960
<v Speaker 2>doing that, But like I get it, that's not like

803
00:39:41.079 --> 00:39:42.960
<v Speaker 2>crazy to throw out there, but the whole like, hey,

804
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:44.519
<v Speaker 2>who was out there on the road the other day,

805
00:39:44.599 --> 00:39:46.760
<v Speaker 2>who's that dumb ass? Like I just I just I

806
00:39:46.960 --> 00:39:49.639
<v Speaker 2>don't know where that comes from. Why they bring it

807
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:51.800
<v Speaker 2>to Facebook, but I'm kind of here for it. So

808
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:53.880
<v Speaker 2>good stuff, all right, we're out of time, you guys,

809
00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:55.920
<v Speaker 2>have a good evening. Let's go cars. Let's hope they

810
00:39:55.960 --> 00:39:58.480
<v Speaker 2>can get this win tonight, and we're back at it

811
