Speaker 3: Don't love it?
Speaker 4: A little too chalky, Gotta start over. See where your
feet are, dude, don't love it? What's a sports show?
If you can't fill out a bracket on a sports show?
Where can you do it? You know it's fair point, Yeah,
it's good point, it's very fair. Then I'll do mine.
I mean, you don't pay attention anyway, So let's see
if you can multitask yep. Doctor Stephen etherid here with it,
says he is every Wednesday dot, how we doing doing great?
Speaker 3: He hasn't filled out a bracket either, In case.
Speaker 5: I'm not, I have not. I think my son's filled
out like five or six now.
Speaker 6: Though, yeah, exactly, I gotta do that research today we
usually do like a family bracket. It's not as easy
to find like a family like a service to fill
out brackets and just follow the five of us.
Speaker 5: So I got I can't remember where I did it.
Last year I found it. I think you can career
like your own small one. You're a small little pool.
Speaker 6: Yeah, last year because I was like, man, I don't
I don't have five emails to.
Speaker 5: Set up five different users. That's the problem.
Speaker 6: I just wanted to, like one user count, let me
fill up five rights.
Speaker 4: Right, Doc, when you're on these you've been on these trips,
Like when you're on these trips and you're you know,
in a tournament situation doesn't have to be basketball, I know,
gymnastics for you, like you've been gone for a long time, right,
what are some of the like things that like you
got to do to make sure that everybody's ready. It
could be things like you've seen and things like from
your you know, realm and like what you do like
school work. I think you get you got to do
school work, right, like some people like bring that with them. Yeah,
what are these trips like when you just you aren't
home for maybe two weeks.
Speaker 7: Yeah, the long trips especially, you know when we're in school.
So in a lot of times when we're football for
a bowl, they're at least out of school, so it's
one less than through.
Speaker 5: So it's your point.
Speaker 7: You know, a lot of times they'll have some of
the academic advisors on the trips. Sometimes they'll bring the
people to kind of help out with making sure they're
getting assigned is done, doing what they can in that regard.
And you know, from the medical side, it's it's you
got to kind of plan ahead. You know, you can
usually find things wherever you are. It's not like, you know,
if we're going to Houston, there's there's plenty of resources
on the one hand, but on the other hand, if
you get somebody sick and you got to take them
to the hospital of the urgent care or whatever, it
really becomes cumbersome. So so we'll bring, you know, a suitcase
that we'll have a bunch of medications, we'll have ivy fluids,
we'll have things if you need to do injections. The
longer we're there, the more we got to bring, the
more we got to kind of plan ahead.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's it's a process.
Speaker 7: And you'll have really a mini infirmary set up at
the hotel, you know, even for an away game for football,
just a weekend, we'll have a small training room. But
especially right these longer trips, it'll it'll be where we'll
usually have the whole thing set up and we can
we can do outside of surgery or something pretty major,
we can do most of it in the hotel.
Speaker 6: When you travel with a team like like for these
extent like even if it's a short like one or
two nights. But then we were talking about kind of
more of extended stay and you deal with something like
flu season, sickness season, and you have a couple of
people that are sick, Like, how do you try? How
do y'all try to keep that contained to just those people?
Because I mean you're in the same either the airplane,
same bus, same hotel, room, same all this stuff. So
how do y'all try to keep that contained?
Speaker 5: You try? I think that's the key word. You said. Try.
It's it's really hard.
Speaker 7: I mean because the problem too is by the time
they're sick, they've already probably been around the team and
been a little contagious already. We'll sometimes have an extra room,
you know. Uh, you know, I can remember when we
were at Omaha in twenty three, we have one of
our guys that we weren't sure if it was a
stomach bug or food poisoning, but we got him in
his own room, but we're worried about his roommate and
we're trying to get in my v's and his bedroom.
He's alt dehydrated and it was just you know, and
he was miserable, you know. And mind you this is
in June and Omaha and it was one hundred degrees
and just ever every level of miserable. So you try,
you do your best, but it's uh it's you know,
once once and once the flu bug whatever goes around,
you just kind of know it's going to be hitting
other guys.
Speaker 6: What's what's the highest temperature del player has ever had
that has actually gone out and performed well.
Speaker 7: Uh, well, at the time, we we won't let them
go out there if if they're having a fever, because
your risk of heat, and this really does go up.
Speaker 5: That's one of the few kind of hard stops.
Speaker 7: Now, if we can get the temperature down, you know,
we've had them, were with probably one o three the
day before or something.
Speaker 5: And and but at the time of competition, is just
threshold one hundred in below or probably.
Speaker 7: The cutoff most of us use one point four. Okay,
that's kind of what most of us kind of consider fevers.
All right, it's not it's not necessarily above ninety eight six.
You can roll around ninety nine.
Speaker 3: That's all right.
Speaker 6: This guy, this guy's right on the edge. It's also
our starter. Maybe we give him a little over, Maybe
we give him a little over eight hundred milligrams out
of profen this time.
Speaker 5: Maybe I'm drinking a cup of ice cold water right
before you came cold of it.
Speaker 4: But what is like non game situation, Like, what is
the one I guess that you would like y'all worry
about the most. Is it the obvious August football?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 7: I think I think definitely it's not as bad as
it used to because the do two days anymore.
Speaker 5: You know, two days were rough soft? Uh, yeah, you know,
I have a hard time.
Speaker 4: Well, Troy Aman said it, So I was like, He's like,
that's why guys get hurt all the time, and they're
not callous anymore.
Speaker 5: Exactly.
Speaker 7: There's we talked about that when we were talking about pictures,
and at least at least talking about guys like Nolan
Ryan would literally pitch and just their arm fell off
and still keep going. So you know, there's something we
said for that too, not condoning that for anyone out there.
Speaker 3: I am docs not.
Speaker 5: I can't.
Speaker 4: I can't, I am, but you want to get forged
in the f I'm talking about football, about baseball.
Speaker 3: You want to get forged in the fire. Have it
to a day.
Speaker 5: You know, I'm not going to argue on that one guy.
Speaker 7: You know, I will say for me, it makes life
easier because for two days, you know, we're out there
twice a day, you're so many guys that are cramping.
Speaker 5: I mean we're doing thirty at forty I D.
Speaker 6: Obviously because they're hydrated. Yeah, of course, of course maybe
other schools.
Speaker 7: We do a lot less IVS at camp. You know,
could it be those two days, could it be big
deal the hydration status.
Speaker 6: It's it's say those cramps really went down starting about
twenty eighteen.
Speaker 5: On the it. So that's the numbers I think show Yeah.
Speaker 8: Left dude, Oh know they were going down pretty hard
Texas in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow, Hey, I'm just saying.
Speaker 7: I was also like one hundred and twenty degrees in
the field and turned off the air they were fake.
Speaker 3: I was on the sideline for that game. It was hot.
Speaker 5: I think that's it was very hot that day.
Speaker 7: No, it was legit I think one ten or one
fifteen when we got there on the field because they
had the turf, so that always increases.
Speaker 8: That tim Is it true they stopped the air conditioning in.
Speaker 7: The locker Yeah, now we knew because uh u Elman
road played there and they said it. They warned us,
so we brought Hortable a huge it was. It was
like one hundred and twenty degrees in the locker room
when we got there. And that's what and they we
didn't know last week.
Speaker 3: Lufkin Texas did that us in high school?
Speaker 5: Good? Well?
Speaker 4: Well in September, Yeah, District twelve five A was pretty gritty.
Yeah we won, okay, Reggie mean it was a quarterback
remember that guy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, y'all are all twenty five cool.
Speaker 3: And we ended up with more points than they did.
Speaker 5: Also, dude, doc, let's talk about these these pitching ours.
Speaker 6: You know you you been locked into the UH World
Baseball Classic.
Speaker 5: Yeah a little bit last night.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah. But like, so you have all these teams,
these managers from all over the world. They have, of course,
very high paid pitchers on their staff, and the managers
for these different countries teams are respecting the organization's wishes
and everything.
Speaker 5: Like what is.
Speaker 6: I mean, everybody knows the injuries that you can get,
but what is like the main issue? Because you have
like schoobl who is pitching sixty seventy pitches in spring
training for his What's the difference between pitching in a
spring training game then going and pitching for USA at
that point? So like what what are the main things
that these teams were probably looking for and like real
worried about.
Speaker 3: So I think, excuse me, they got me choked up.
I was really rooting for the US.
Speaker 5: A m hm, sorry about that. It's okay.
Speaker 4: It was an emotional moment. We all want a team
USA to go all the way.
Speaker 5: I get it. Okay, you want to do something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, goodness, I'm gonna get do a little cup of
water while you talked.
Speaker 3: You got him?
Speaker 5: Okay, I know, I get it.
Speaker 6: Well, we were talking about being what kind of fever
you could fight through?
Speaker 5: Yeah? That got me pretty Is there a bug?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 5: I get it. I'm not sure what happened there?
Speaker 4: Did you see where he went and pitched to in
spring training? And then he's like, I want to be
with the guys, and so he drove from the Tigers
spring training to Miami because he's like, I'm want to be.
Speaker 5: With the team. Oh, he's probably like right there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, in Lakeland. I think it's like he wanted
to play dress up. Why can't you just like pitch?
Speaker 5: They just pitch? Like, what's it like?
Speaker 6: That's my thing is what's the difference between pitching seventy
pitches in spring ball for your team and pitching it
for the USA? I mean, that's that's my question. That's
the same amount of pitches.
Speaker 3: Dock you good?
Speaker 5: I think?
Speaker 3: So up in there we got him some water, though.
Speaker 5: I appreciate that. I think it's getting better.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 9: You.
Speaker 4: I would say, I'm I'm gonna give you my meat
head take before it doc gives you the real take.
I would say that those are low stress pitches compared
to pitching against Venezuela and the World Baseball Classic.
Speaker 7: That works better. There we go, there you go. Yeah,
I think I think that's the point. It is a
different intensity that you're looking at. But I also kind
of more on y'all side.
Speaker 5: I was like, this is USA.
Speaker 6: Yeah, what she answers the question I was asking, Yes, sir,
they don't care as much about pitching for their own
team when it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: Like to to your point, though, good luck trying to
tell anybody on the Dominican Republic or Venezuela or Japan
that they couldn't.
Speaker 5: Do something right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were like the I guarantee you.
Speaker 6: The closer of Venezuela could did. They did have instructions
that they could only come in and a close.
Speaker 3: And close I guarantee you if it would have been
tied because they were.
Speaker 4: Running out of pitching, he had been out there, because
he would have walked out there and said, I'm pitching right, Like,
I think that's like, there's not a play. Like they
got the best of the very best from their country,
which is awesome the US and the roster was loaded.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it wasn't. It was, but there was.
Speaker 4: Still play, like we could come up with five players, Like, wait,
well was this guy there? He could I think you
could easily do that. Like they weren't going to be
told that they couldn't go out.
Speaker 5: That was one of the big knocks is the dedication.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean you could tell like that. Obviously they
gave everything they had, like they're the people are people playing?
Speaker 5: For sure? People are playing.
Speaker 4: It's just yeah, but like even pitch again, like hit
a ground ball, you're not gonna get there. But they
were trying the Venezuela US like they treated more like
a hot, grounded out m maybe just be a little
bit more meathead. But it is tough when you have
a tournament and then your season starts. I get that,
I do, But the World Cup's the same situation. Yeah,
if I was, the World Cup can be.
Speaker 3: In the summertime, right before the club league starts.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I get like the there's just like any
other sport contractually, if if you get hurt doing something
else not with the team, like your contract could be
boy Like they're like, I'm sure players had insurance, Yeah,
but I'm sure that the teams would be like we're
waiving that for this tournament, not like that's what I
would do as the owner or an organization.
Speaker 5: They didn't and we lost, or maybe just hit the.
Speaker 6: Bad airon Judge hit the ball, hit the bad hits
the ball, hits the swing, well, you know.
Speaker 5: You get it.
Speaker 8: Aaron Judge is getting all the flag. Kyle Schwarmer went
over to not over two, he went over he was
over three.
Speaker 3: It'll walk in three strikeouts.
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: It's not great. M We almost had to call a
doc for.
Speaker 5: Doc, almost had two finally getting there down the wrong.
Speaker 8: Tube, Isn't that a myth? Isn't it like a flap
instead of a tube or something like that.
Speaker 3: Let's ask a doctor.
Speaker 5: A flap that covers the tube? So so it is there,
there is there is, yes, two separate.
Speaker 8: I feel like people used to say, like when I
would be like, oh, it went down the wrong pipe, yep,
they would be like, no, you only have one or something.
Speaker 5: There's two tunnels. If you will to tubes, I think
tubes are probably better.
Speaker 7: You have a wind pipe and then the which is
more collap, but then you have a little flap that
goes over the top of the wind pipe.
Speaker 8: So it's supposed to go down your esophagus, but sometimes
it goes down the wind pipe.
Speaker 6: Correct, So food can go down the wind pipe, Yes,
that's when it goes down there.
Speaker 5: That's choking. You better hope it comes back up or
else you're probably okay.
Speaker 6: So like if I'm sitting here talking about, oh, that
went down there wrong tube, like it didn't.
Speaker 5: Actually it can. It's all relative.
Speaker 3: But if it's small enough not to choke you, maybe.
Speaker 7: Right, well, you can make it all the way into
the airways, and that's you know, sometimes you'll get that's
often when you start coughing, when you get the irritation.
That's something can lead to aspiration pneumonia if you ever
heard that term. But it makes it to your stomach somehow, No,
no where I go. I guess if you cough it
back up and then swallow it. But otherwise your body
will hopefully reabsorb whatever is in there or you have
to cough it out.
Speaker 5: Most times you're gonna cough it out. Yeah, got like
food in your lungs.
Speaker 4: That's now that you say that, I'm like, oh, yeah,
like choking a little bit, like you coughing a little bit.
Speaker 3: And then also just like you cough once, just like
there it comes. Oh man, we almost had to in
a real situation here with doc. Didn't even know it.
Speaker 5: Don't cough, Doc trying not to.
Speaker 6: Uh man, I'm kind of my mind's kind of blown
right now.
Speaker 4: Uh see, we have we have asked the doc question,
what's the best thing for someone with an office job
to do for their health?
Speaker 3: So I guess if they're sitting all day.
Speaker 7: So that's a you know, that's become a big problem.
A lot of people are more sedentary. So I think, yeah,
I think you got to get up and move around.
You know, I think there's very few scenarios where you can't.
But you just got to make yourself do it, you know,
whether it's just getting up and walking around the office
doing a few sit ups or push ups, if you
have the space in a worst case scenario.
Speaker 5: You can you can at least do things with while
you're at your desk.
Speaker 7: You know, you can just you know, I tell a
lot of my older patients that have bad knees, they
make the small little bike things you can put on
your desk, where you say that a pedal.
Speaker 5: I don't know if you do that at work and
they might might be distracting.
Speaker 4: But yeah, walking treadmills, I know that's kind of become
in vogue a little bit.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there's there's a lot of people that are
doing that.
Speaker 3: I think we need to show in one.
Speaker 5: Gon be interested. Not just a standing desk. Does that
do anything for you? That that does?
Speaker 7: You know, even with the standing desk, even just using
the ones that you can do both were can stand
and sit down, but a lot of times it will
help your posture. People have a lot of back issues.
A lot of them do better with the standing desk.
Speaker 3: I sit for six hours.
Speaker 6: I got one of the little buzz buzz ones at
my office that goes up and down.
Speaker 5: That big deal.
Speaker 3: It's really not. They sell a lot of them.
Speaker 6: Cool they are, They're awesome. I love standing. I love
standing the city.
Speaker 3: All right, I love the dog didn't choke here on
the show.
Speaker 2: Oh about what about? What are your thoughts on laying down? Matt?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I love just leaning back. It's all good.
Speaker 4: Do you go to gymnastics meet the last one? I mean,
I know it's a sport that you.
Speaker 7: So I covered gymnastics, but I was actually a conference
in that Nashville.
Speaker 3: You didn't get to see the three tens.
Speaker 5: Did not. Now I watched obviously watched three plays and
that's pretty awesome. She's fantastic.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's we talked.
Speaker 4: About it last week, like what they do, like what
their bodies go through, it's remarkable.
Speaker 5: It's crazy. It's crazy. And then we leave a Thursday
for Tulsa.
Speaker 7: We got the SEC Championship in Tulsa on Saturday.
Speaker 3: Hold the SEC Championships in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Speaker 5: Ulsa, Oklahoma, obvious doesn't feel right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, UHC Country, Tulsa, Oklahoma, what big deal.
Speaker 3: It's like the media days being in Tampa this year.
I'm like, Tampa, what.
Speaker 7: It doesn't make a lot of sense. But I guess
they try to do it in states that we have schools.
I guess Oklahoma is now one of those, but not
in the city where the school is. So, for example,
we had it in New Orleans. They'll do it in Atlanta,
they'll do it in places like that, but they don't
want to do it at the school's hometown. But obviously
this will be a big Oklahoma home meet basically, but
we had in New Orleans last.
Speaker 5: Year, so.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it feels more SEC than.
Speaker 5: It does Tulsa does not sound sec a bad town?
Speaker 2: More fun?
Speaker 3: Maybe.
Speaker 5: Yeah. I just don't know anybody that's like itching to
go to Tulsa.
Speaker 7: I've never been, so i'll give you all. Yeah, it's okay.
It is what you make it. You've had, You've probably
to go to a conference there. I've been to Tulsa once. Yeah,
it's like, yeah, it's a good show.
Speaker 3: And Paramount Tulsa King, Yes, Paramount.
Speaker 5: Sloan, Yeah, Taylor Sheridan, so it's probably Paramount h.
Speaker 8: It's probably Yellowstone in a different font.
Speaker 3: No, it's Sevester Sloan, so it's a little different. But god,
I love I love Sly. Who's to doc? Didn't die?
That's great, die doctor. We appreciate you. Thank you, sir.
Uh make sure you'll joke.
Speaker 5: On the way out at Yeah, that one got me.
I've been there, came out of blue.
Speaker 3: All right, we'll take a break more O t B.

Speaker 2: Winning your night.
Speaker 8: Bits Sasa do a chicken suver?
Speaker 9: Bcond so shaking.
Speaker 4: All right, Welcome back in O T B. Here live
from the Raise of Kane Studio. Our Wednesday show is
brought to you by hood Dental Care Well R and
Me Wednesday as well.
Speaker 3: Will Nervous say with Doc he couldn't couldn't find.
Speaker 5: It bad feeling. We've all been there.
Speaker 2: I had to go to the second floor for that
water bottle.
Speaker 5: By the way, you're quick too, must work.
Speaker 2: I know exactly where it is.
Speaker 8: You weren't even out of breath.
Speaker 2: It's for believe it or not.
Speaker 8: No, I just get out of breath going up the stairs.
Speaker 4: The stairs are different every day, Yeah they are because
some days nothing.
Speaker 3: Some days I literally.
Speaker 8: Can run for and not get out of breath. But
those stairs get me every time, and my knees crack
like kind of in a concerning way. I'm like, I
don't know if my knees are supposed to sound like
this every step I take. But those stairs are brutal.
Speaker 2: So it's even weirder for me, because like, I'll come
in on a Tuesday, walk up the stairs, no problem.
I come in on Wednesday, I'm like out of breath.
But I'm like, what happened overnight? We had an it
guy in here yesterday. He was he had to walk
up the stairs a few times. Said he was talking
to Paul the engineer, and he's like, hey, Paul, can
you come uh downstairs? And a come look atself, and
he walked out. I went to Muso.
Speaker 5: I was like, we check on that guy. Respect him
for taking the stairs though, Oh yeah, respect. It depends
on how much sleep you get the night before.
Speaker 6: The later I go to sleep, the more out of
breath I am going upstairs. Some days I hit a little, slight,
little jog, don't even feel it.
Speaker 8: Sometimes I skip a step.
Speaker 5: Oh not a big deal, show off, No big.
Speaker 3: Deal at all.
Speaker 8: Yeah, no follow up to that.
Speaker 4: I think the most important part is that we all
take the stairs and not the elevator here.
Speaker 6: It's important. It's a four story building. Guys, got to
train your mind as well as your body.
Speaker 2: Oh I have I have called out mister Kitchens on
a number of occasions because he does have a quick
turnaround between shows. But he'll come up the elevator, come
in here, print out hants, live sheets, go back down.
And I'm like, Jordan, you're going up one flight of
stairs and his response is, well, I gotta get back quick.
I'm like, Bys, it's quicker to take the stairs than that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, hit a little John. Do you see how fast
Taylor just got that water bottle. I'm like, the stairs
are also quicker, soees, what an excuse?
Speaker 8: Well, he does live a cushy life in a country club.
Speaker 2: True. Jordan's like I'm used To's like, I'm used to
traveling by golf guard only.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Usually actually they picked me up and carry me there.
Speaker 8: So yeah, I take my hoverboard everywhere.
Speaker 2: Driver in here, He's like, I have to take the
elevator to my driver doesn't have a key cord.
Speaker 5: You're right, dude, I'm sorry. Almost was a work in
this environment.
Speaker 2: I'm like, GEORGI, you know what's worse than the elevator?
Anthony mackium a right, how about that?
Speaker 3: Yuh oh my god, I forgot about that.
Speaker 2: I'll never forget that. I was waiting for such a
good story and it was just not.
Speaker 3: Did y'all see you last night. Probably not. I mean
we were dialed into the NBA by any means, like
other things to watch.
Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw it on the socials
Alex Crusoe his shoe fell off and they were playing
the Magic He plays for the Thunder, of course, and
he went to swipe at the ball, but he had
his shoe in his hand because it fell off and
he picked it up. So he's going to swipe at
the ball with his shoe and like it's trying to
play defense with his shoe in his hand, and swipes
at the ball and actually hits it with his shoe.
Speaker 5: Did they count it as a yeah?
Speaker 3: Technical?
Speaker 2: Well it was about sixty like a technical kick it
with you, like if the shoes in your hand.
Speaker 8: Wait, did y'all see this is a completely different sports. Softball.
It was at Florida State. One of the hitters was
hitting and I forget who they're playing, but the picture
the ball got away from her a slow roller and
the took like on the ground and she took it,
and they counted it as a hit by.
Speaker 4: Pitch because I mean, if it hits the ground, hit you,
it's still your hip. How did it not come back
because she didn't.
Speaker 8: Yeah, she really didn't. That's a good point. I didn't.
I don't know if they ended up challenging it or not.
But like the clip that I saw she took first base,
it was just a slow.
Speaker 3: Roller like literally like bowling style and hit.
Speaker 8: I don't know how she recovers from that one.
Speaker 4: You never come back from that, Matthew. When's the last
time you watched an NBA game when I was a child?
Speaker 5: Did you to be?
Speaker 2: Like I called a few.

was just trying to get trying to get like a
beer and a and a burger or something like that.

was that. It was that so he did the same thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it was actually I believe it was that game.
It was fun. I mean I really was watching like
this is the end. I was cheering everybody else. Like
the energy in the place was cool.
Speaker 2: Now that that's a good that's a good place to be, man,

there with all the downtown bars and Victoria's. Like I've
never been into sports books. I was like, guy, look,
I'll go in and show you. So we sit at
the bar right there at the front. A family of
about thirty five to forty people, all decked out in
Ohio State gear like took over the bar. Like I'm
going to the bathroom and I've run into two guys
like on my way out, I stopped.
Speaker 5: Him, like, ask you as a question, like do y'all

Speaker 10: I think once it turned into two to five two
two five is turning to three three seven because three
lusis west right.
Speaker 2: You hang on, I got you right here, there's a
there's a here he could map, but uh, I guess
celebrity wise play kicks Brooks.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I feel like the duck commander people
would be right up your alleys.
Speaker 2: It'd be great. Yeah, like as far as like who
is gonna hang out with? Yes, but just have listed
the Brooks have done forever.

Speaker 4: They same, like, I mean small town, but I don't
remember which one, but he played football for Louisian tachy h.
Speaker 5: I take it back. I apparently know a lot of people.
Speaker 8: Exactly Hurricane Chris.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm looking it up. Right now. I didn't

Speaker 8: Here when I look it up.
Speaker 3: Oh, thank you nice. I think they answers Jacob Hester.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they answers Jacob Hester and Hunt Palmer and my fiance.
Speaker 3: Happy through one eight.
Speaker 5: There you go.
Speaker 2: There's a little there's a little map.
Speaker 5: So okay, all right, this answers a lot.
Speaker 6: This is good because obviously we definitely knew as of
a couple of mo ago that nine eighty five went
down to Homa.
Speaker 5: Opelousis is I think two to five.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like it's kind of because.
Speaker 6: Right there at the edge of it, like I feel
like the nine eight five area code is a little drunk.
Speaker 4: Dude, the ninety five area code, said Lee Roud Jenkins.
Speaker 6: I mean, what's this, Like it just north Shore all
the way down to Venice, over Toahoma, over like up
into kind of getting close to like Bruce Sarda.
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, Lafayette's almost in that area code.
Speaker 3: I mean nine A five.
Speaker 5: You're absolutely drunk.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So, like I don't even figure it out. I
don't even remember who it was.
Speaker 4: They're not with us anymore, but I remember, like we
gave out the number because it's like ninety five or like, yeah,
if you're on the north shore and in Homa nine
eighty five, and I was like, well, no, it's like,
don't service all the ninety five.
Speaker 3: I was like, we have a ninety five number, not
on the north shore. I'm like, what do you mean?
Nine five? So if you look at this, I mean,
it's like makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 6: Now, it's like this, it's got this like drunk look
and little shape that ninety five is. Then it just
skips over New Orleans, goes back over to like Venis
and everything. Look at that, like what is that? Like,
what are you doing?
Speaker 4: Ninety five? This should one hundred percent be five I before,
I mean five before? It is literally just.
Speaker 8: Yeah, should we ask Milkey what she thinks?
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably she'll have an answer for us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, coach, you recruit a lot. Why is ninety five terrible?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Last night if I have such a dumb area card, Uh,
coach had practiced until eight thirty. That's why she is
pushed back trying to get ready to guess a little
letter they call like the tournament or or something.
Speaker 5: Yes, that's fine, I don't.
Speaker 3: Know, it's pretty cool.
Speaker 4: I love how the women's game, you get a reward
and you get to host, like if you're one of
those top four, like you get the host Like it's
great revenue for your school. It's you know, as I said,
it's like a reward for a great season and you
get an advantage, which is what you should do.
Speaker 3: Like you earn an advantage. I like it I wish
the men's tournament would do it too.
Speaker 5: That's fun. She's at a forty five.
Speaker 3: Yep, you getting those questions ready?
Speaker 8: No, just yeah, I know you have a lot of them.
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 4: Are burning Jacksonville, Texas Tech, Villanova. This man over here
getting his pen ready, all right, before we do take
this break and we are going to have Coach Mulkey on.
Always want to remind you that March is Cooling Cancer
Awareness Month, and it is always a good reminder that
colon cancer is one of the most common cancers, but
it's also one of the most preventable win called early
and it's all about screening. So if you're forty five
or older and you have him in screen, now is
the time to do so. And if you have a
family history or you're feeling some symptoms of it, like
go ahead and get check, do not wait. And we
know the koln Oskby is the best screening tool, but
for some people are also simple at home tests that
may be an option. So the key is talking with
your doctor, having a relationship with a primary care provider.
It's going to help you make sure you're getting the
right screenings at the right time. You can schedule your
appointment today at aser dot org slash schedule, or you
can always do it on the my ostionnar app so
schedules today dot org slash schedule or through the my

Speaker 1: Off the Bench presented by Hood Dental.
Speaker 4: All right, welcome back here and OTV here on this
Wednesday morning. Always enjoy our Wednesday mornings. We'll get a
chance to catch up with else you have basketball coach
Kim Moulke. We're gonna do so now, coach, we appreciate
the time. How practice go this morning, Well, it's seven.
Speaker 9: O'clock in the morning, and you know, it's kind of
like we're ready to play. I mean, the hardest time
in the season is waiting, you know, and we have
to wait after the conference tournament is over until the
pairings are announced, and then you take off two or
three days and then you got to wait another week.
It's just they're just you're kind of like chomping at
the bit, you know, so you got to kind of
keep them fired up. And at the same time, we've
had good practices. We really have I think seven o'clock
in the morning kind of you know, it's different because
we don't normally go own that early, but we went
early because the NC DOUBLEA takes over the floor at
nine am this morning, right, and so you will not
be able to get on the floor for extra shooting
or anything like that. So get some shots up this
morning and we'll have all the press conference stuff tomorrow
and our fine practice time. And yeah, it's it's here.
It's you know, it's that time of year.
Speaker 4: That's right, A coach, we were talking about right before
you hopped on like you know, you get a chance
to host, like in women's basketball, which I love. I
love it as a reward for the season that you
had in the regular season. Your fans get a chance
to see their team play postseason in your own arena.
So when you have a situation like that, what are
maybe some of the advantages. And I know the NC DOUBLEA,
like you said, they do take over at some point
they run in, but what are the advantages of playing
hopefully two rounds in your own building.
Speaker 9: Well, the advantages are you sleeping your own bed. You
kind of have your same routine with a few distractions
like press conferences and practice times are different. But it's
a reward for a great season. And I'm gonna harp
on this this morning, and I hope everybody listens, and
I hope you guys post it. If we're fortunate enough
to beat Jacksonville, get out here on Sunday and watch
Flag that will be her last game ever. And I
get emotional because that kid that's meant so much to
our program. We should sell it out. And not only
should we sell it out, I don't want to hear
anybody gripe about the cost of a ticket. We are
not in charge of that. NCAA sells those tickets. They
take over our ticket office, they take over the seats.
We're having to move great donors to other seats because
you have to give each team a certain number of
seats in proximity to their benches. But that kid means
so much to this university, and if we don't sell
it out, there's no baseball game Sunday. And we need
to do it, and we need to promote it because
she's going to be dearly missed, not just in my program,
but at this university.
Speaker 6: Well said, very well said coach, and every time coach,
with all due respect to everybody, like when your team
takes it forward, it should always be a sellout. And
starting with sorry with Jacksonville, and we'll start their coach
prepping for of course, the first round and hopefully prepping
for many mini rounds. But let's talk to us about
this Jacksonville team that you're getting ready to face.
Speaker 9: Well, Jacksonville, they didn't win the league, they won the
conference tournament. However, they had a great season if you
look at their record, and we will this is how
we worked it. We have prepared for every team here,
all three, each day and then we will present Jacksonville
scouting report tomorrow. We'll get in the film room and
we will work on them all day tomorrow, and then
we will have the five o'clock game on Friday, and
then the seven point thirty game between Texas Tech and
Villanova will follow, and if we're fortunate enough to win,
then we will scout that game. And yes, we should,
we should have a sellout. I said this to the
Baylor fans. I said it over and over and over.
Do not take these first and second round games for granted.
They won't last forever. It's hard to do. And I
think that Baylor's probably, you know, wishing they were hosting
first and second round games every year like they used to.
It doesn't just happen. You don't outbid people, You can't
buy them, you earn them. And to think that five
years in a row we have had that and get
out here, have a great crowd five o'clock. It's tough
on a Friday. I get it, but we can do it.
And I'll say it again, Flase Johnson deserves a sellout
for both games, and if we are fortunate to win both,
then we go to Sacramento we're in the sweet sixteen.
Don't take that for granted.
Speaker 3: It is hard, right, no question about it.
Speaker 4: Coach, and I think we're all looking forward to seeing
your team play a couple of games coming up, and
you're exactly right. This team deserves to be in front
of a sold out crowd. The fans have been great
all year. Let's have two more times out where they
show up and they show out. You're right, doesn't matter
if it's Friday, find a way, ask for permission, get
a note from coach, get out work, maybe a little
bit early, because this team and this coaching staff deserves
your very best.
Speaker 3: Coach.
Speaker 4: We know you're very busy during this time trying to
get ready for the NCAA tournament. We certainly appreciate a
couple of minutes here this morning.
Speaker 9: Gots take care.
Speaker 4: Thanks for having me, all right, Head basketball coach Kim
