00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:39.719
<v Speaker 1>off for the Spurs as well getting ready for the

24
00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 1>second half of the season. So are we. But today

25
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>we want to talk about that something happening today today, Wednesday.

26
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>There's a big I don't know if you've heard about this,

27
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 1>a big auction that's going online today.

28
00:01:54.959 --> 00:01:57.359
<v Speaker 3>A few weeks ago, after the Spurs win against the

29
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.200
<v Speaker 3>Brooklyn Nets, Victor wembin Yama noticed a young fan holding

30
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:03.760
<v Speaker 3>up a sign that said, Victor Wenbinyama, will you swap

31
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 3>jerseys with me? And so Wemby took off his game

32
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.960
<v Speaker 3>warrn Jersey and decided to take the time to swap

33
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:13.400
<v Speaker 3>jerseys with that young fan. But with that being said,

34
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:17.319
<v Speaker 3>today Victor wembin Yama noticed on social media that that

35
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:20.159
<v Speaker 3>same game warn jersey he swapped with that young fan

36
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:24.360
<v Speaker 3>was being sold online and up for auction with the

37
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 3>starting bid of ten thousand dollars.

38
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>Boo boo. That's happening right now today on eBay. That

39
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:37.759
<v Speaker 1>man is selling that jersey for ten thousand dollars. Victor

40
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:40.080
<v Speaker 1>wembin Yama has been doing this all year long. He

41
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:43.639
<v Speaker 1>actually picked up the idea from Chris Paul. Chris Paul

42
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:46.520
<v Speaker 1>does it a lot. It's a great way to really

43
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:50.080
<v Speaker 1>get Victor out there, you know, get fans to like him,

44
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.039
<v Speaker 1>get Victor to be in the eyes of the public.

45
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Because if you're already going to be labeled the face

46
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:57.719
<v Speaker 1>of the NBA, of course you're going to go out there,

47
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.599
<v Speaker 1>sign a few autographs, take a few pictures. I mean,

48
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.879
<v Speaker 1>even Sean Elliott says that when Victor takes a picture

49
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 1>with somebody's phone, it's hilarious. He goes, go, go, gadget

50
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>arms first and foremost, but he goes He's got a

51
00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:13.280
<v Speaker 1>built in selfie stick. He literally does with those long arms, right,

52
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.319
<v Speaker 1>So you're getting something very personalized from possibly one of

53
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:20.719
<v Speaker 1>the greatest of all time. To do it eventually, I'm

54
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:24.240
<v Speaker 1>not saying right now, calm down, lebron fans, Okay, calm down,

55
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>MJ fans. I was an MJ fan. I'm just saying,

56
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe eventually to do it. The interesting thing is, in

57
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:34.960
<v Speaker 1>this whole situation, what would you do, Spurs fans? What

58
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 1>would you do in that situation? And what I mean

59
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:42.280
<v Speaker 1>by that is do you need the money? Does your

60
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:47.199
<v Speaker 1>family need the money? I could understand if let's say

61
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:52.639
<v Speaker 1>that something happened to the family's home kind of like

62
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.400
<v Speaker 1>JJ Reddick. We talked about this last week on the show.

63
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>JJ Reddick and his kids used to get autographs all

64
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.719
<v Speaker 1>the time because JJ had a podcast and those said

65
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 1>players would come into the podcast sign things for his kids.

66
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 1>They lost everything. I could see if the father was

67
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:12.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna sell it to help the family, and maybe he

68
00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:14.159
<v Speaker 1>is selling it to help the family. But if it's

69
00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:18.439
<v Speaker 1>a personalized jersey, if it says too young so and

70
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:24.800
<v Speaker 1>so from Victor Wembinyama, you're selling now a memory that

71
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:27.879
<v Speaker 1>was supposed to be so good for your child. Now

72
00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:31.360
<v Speaker 1>it's going to turn into public reticule for the rest

73
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:35.680
<v Speaker 1>of your life for ten thousand dollars. And the other

74
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:37.959
<v Speaker 1>sad thing is it more sad that he's selling the

75
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>jersey or the fact that somebody out there will buy it.

76
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 1>This is absolutely pathetic and the reason why people hate sports.

77
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.199
<v Speaker 1>This is why people hate fans, because you're not a fan.

78
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:53.560
<v Speaker 1>You are not a fan first and foremost. You have

79
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:57.360
<v Speaker 1>the opportunity to get courtside with your son close enough

80
00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:00.399
<v Speaker 1>to a possible legend, and you go ahead and do

81
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>something like this absolutely crass. I have two boys that

82
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>love sitting all the way in the upper deck for

83
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:10.639
<v Speaker 1>fifteen dollars seats just to get a glimpse of the

84
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:15.160
<v Speaker 1>San Antonio Spurs, and you're down there selling it for

85
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:18.279
<v Speaker 1>ten grand. Something tells me that you probably had seats

86
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:22.160
<v Speaker 1>close enough. You paid maybe five hundred dollars, one thousand dollars.

87
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're saying, well, the seats were given to me. Okay,

88
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:29.279
<v Speaker 1>that's fine, But guess what, I'm pretty sure if you

89
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:31.279
<v Speaker 1>had enough money to go to that game and sit

90
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:35.680
<v Speaker 1>in that area, you have enough money to go bit

91
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:40.959
<v Speaker 1>on your own auction. Spurs fans, if you're a real

92
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:44.079
<v Speaker 1>Spurs fan, and I am, if you've listened to this podcast,

93
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>I have been a fan of the San Antonio Spurs

94
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 1>on my fortieth year, forty years since the age of

95
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:52.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to tell you because I'm too old now,

96
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:55.680
<v Speaker 1>since the age of eight, I've stayed with this team

97
00:05:55.720 --> 00:06:00.279
<v Speaker 1>through thick and thin, no matter what the record, wins,

98
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:04.079
<v Speaker 1>twenty one wins, big number one draft picks, partial pet

99
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.319
<v Speaker 1>draft picks. I've been through it all, and there's people

100
00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:10.480
<v Speaker 1>that have been fans longer than I have. I remember

101
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:16.319
<v Speaker 1>the Hemisphere Arena days, I remember Frank Perkowski, Larry Christobiak,

102
00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Alvin Robinson, Johnny Moore. Some of you guys can even

103
00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:22.759
<v Speaker 1>go further than that, right, artist Gilmour. I remember Big

104
00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:33.639
<v Speaker 1>a train ed Neely, Greg Cadillac Anderson, Willie Anderson, Antonio Daniels.

105
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:40.759
<v Speaker 1>But you have somebody like this. What more sickening about

106
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:43.000
<v Speaker 1>this situation is we're not going to stay long on

107
00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:46.199
<v Speaker 1>the subject is a fast break report. But what's more

108
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:50.519
<v Speaker 1>sickening about it is this. You created a memory with

109
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:54.160
<v Speaker 1>your kid. Oh, I got the picture. I can't wait

110
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:55.759
<v Speaker 1>till you post it on the wall and your kid

111
00:06:55.759 --> 00:07:01.839
<v Speaker 1>one day goes, where's that Jersey? Dad? That's what I

112
00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:05.680
<v Speaker 1>can't wait for. I can't wait for it. I have

113
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.600
<v Speaker 1>a son that met John Cena when he was younger.

114
00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Loved John Cena from the WWE. I remember we got

115
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:14.319
<v Speaker 1>to sit in line to wait for him before an

116
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:19.480
<v Speaker 1>event and there were so many people that John allowed

117
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:22.199
<v Speaker 1>everybody to get through to meet him. This was early

118
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>in his career too. My son had a John Cena

119
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:29.160
<v Speaker 1>action figure that he signed, not a box. He had

120
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:31.920
<v Speaker 1>an open figure that was beat up because he played

121
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:34.279
<v Speaker 1>with it and John signed it and he looked at

122
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:35.920
<v Speaker 1>it and he goes, you play with us a lot,

123
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:39.959
<v Speaker 1>humbody and my son was like yes, and he looked

124
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>at me. He goes, that's a good dad. I go, yeah,

125
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:44.199
<v Speaker 1>it's not no box like half these people in line.

126
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:47.040
<v Speaker 1>And he giggled. And see I remember those moments and

127
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.600
<v Speaker 1>so does my son. But guess what he lost that figure?

128
00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:53.839
<v Speaker 1>And I know he asked me, I remember that picture

129
00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:57.279
<v Speaker 1>I took with John you still have it? I remember

130
00:07:57.399 --> 00:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>had the autograph figure too. He remembers the moment. So

131
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:06.399
<v Speaker 1>imagine this little boy remembering the moment because it's now

132
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:11.199
<v Speaker 1>captured on podcasts, YouTube, Well not so much TikTok anymore,

133
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.720
<v Speaker 1>but you know what I mean, Instagram, all the news

134
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:21.279
<v Speaker 1>circuits here in San Antonio. I think it's more embarrassing

135
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:26.959
<v Speaker 1>than anything for the kid. I know he's young and

136
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:31.319
<v Speaker 1>maybe he won't grow up that way. But as a

137
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:36.320
<v Speaker 1>father that takes his kids to probably ten games a year,

138
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:41.360
<v Speaker 1>costs US two hundred bucks a night, it's two thousand

139
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:46.720
<v Speaker 1>dollars a year, you're here selling a jersey for ten

140
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:50.240
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars. My thing is, Spurs fans, don't go out

141
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:54.639
<v Speaker 1>there and go and bid on this item. Don't do it,

142
00:08:55.759 --> 00:08:58.600
<v Speaker 1>but you're gonna have some jackass that's not from San

143
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Antonio go out thing and he's gonna pay a high

144
00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:06.639
<v Speaker 1>extravagant amount when you probably could get courtside and do it.

145
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:08.919
<v Speaker 1>The other sad part of this is, and we're gonna

146
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:13.039
<v Speaker 1>end with this, not just what the father did as

147
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:18.919
<v Speaker 1>a father. What oh what a M trying to keep

148
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:20.919
<v Speaker 1>my Christian morals here, if you know what I mean.

149
00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:24.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to got my Jesus statue right in front

150
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:27.720
<v Speaker 1>of me, and just I gotta take a breath because

151
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:32.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm a dad who puts his kids first and everything

152
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:34.919
<v Speaker 1>I do, and listen, maybe I'm jumping the gun. Maybe

153
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:37.159
<v Speaker 1>something's going on in their life where he has to

154
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:40.600
<v Speaker 1>sell that thing, But don't make Victor personalize it, or

155
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:43.840
<v Speaker 1>any athlete personalize it in your kid's name and then

156
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.679
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, go sell it. I don't even

157
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:49.720
<v Speaker 1>care if the kid's name is not on it. It's

158
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:54.480
<v Speaker 1>the moment. Those are precious moments. It was a cool picture.

159
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.600
<v Speaker 1>The kid came up to probably his thigh and they

160
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:01.679
<v Speaker 1>swap jerseys and j that wen be Yama got was

161
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.480
<v Speaker 1>so small, and Victor is such a cool dude that

162
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I guarantee you he has that little boy's jersey, and

163
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:12.000
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't put it past Victor to do something for

164
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:18.840
<v Speaker 1>that little boy, sign that jersey. This is what I do, Victor.

165
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:20.960
<v Speaker 1>If you're out there listening, and I know you listen

166
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>to the show, because you step up when we give

167
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:26.039
<v Speaker 1>you that proverbial fire, you know, this is what I

168
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.559
<v Speaker 1>would do, Victor. I'd sign that jersey that he gave you.

169
00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:33.080
<v Speaker 1>I would put it in a glass box with laser

170
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.399
<v Speaker 1>beams all right, kind of like Inspector Gadget style mission impossible,

171
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 1>all right, where the father has to do some flippity

172
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:42.559
<v Speaker 1>dippity ruse round it all right and get through it now.

173
00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:45.320
<v Speaker 1>I would get him something nice. I would also do

174
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:47.519
<v Speaker 1>that one more time for him, and I would put

175
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:51.320
<v Speaker 1>something in writing saying it cannot be sold. Cannot be

176
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:56.360
<v Speaker 1>sold unless that kid turns twenty one and he wants

177
00:10:56.399 --> 00:11:00.720
<v Speaker 1>to do something with it. Don't allow the father to

178
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:04.879
<v Speaker 1>sell it. What a I can't again, I can't judge.

179
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I can't Usa Usa whosa, ma'am man oh man. What

180
00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>an interesting turn of events with that jersey spurs fans.

181
00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:19.519
<v Speaker 1>What do you think you would do in that situation?

182
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm pretty sure if say this guy came

183
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:26.080
<v Speaker 1>out on TV and said, Listen, the reason why I

184
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:28.480
<v Speaker 1>did it my family lost everything in a fire or

185
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:30.879
<v Speaker 1>a flood, or you know, we have an operation, my

186
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.679
<v Speaker 1>wife or my cousin or this and that. I guarantee
