WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:03.480 So shout out to the backside. Also shout out to 2 00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:05.799 four Street Live. I hadn't thought about it this week, 3 00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:07.879 but there's no way this is not one of their 4 00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:10.279 bigger weekends of the year because of so many people 5 00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:13.480 that are in Louisville and that stay downtown. And you know, 6 00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:15.919 I think it's not unfair to say that four Street 7 00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:18.399 right now probably caters more so to people that are 8 00:00:18.440 --> 00:00:20.920 traveling to Louisville than you know, people who live here, 9 00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:23.399 because honestly, not a lot of people live downtown Louisville. 10 00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:26.600 You know, I mean, people do live downtown Louisville, but 11 00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:29.440 you know, if you just marketed to that type of crowd, 12 00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:32.000 meaning just locals that are just within walking distance, that 13 00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.520 would be a smaller group of people. So, you know, 14 00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:36.960 I went out to my car and they're doing a 15 00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:39.880 sound check for a concert that's taken place tonight, and 16 00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.320 they've also got already like a bar set up in 17 00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:45.679 the middle, which you know, for events and whatnot, they 18 00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:47.640 do that. But like I leave here every day and 19 00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:51.159 even on Fridays more often than not. At six fifteen, 20 00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:54.159 six thirty, you know, it's still pretty pretty pretty light 21 00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:56.799 out there, but it's going to be packed tonight. And 22 00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.320 I don't say this just because this is our home now. 23 00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.520 We broadcast live every day here from four Street Live. 24 00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:05.079 But if you don't live here and you've never seen 25 00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:09.120 this place and you have no knowledge of like what 26 00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:12.280 to expect in downtown Louisville, you have to keep in 27 00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:14.879 mind people who walk by here probably think this place 28 00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:18.200 looks cool as hell, and it is. I just don't 29 00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:22.120 you know, So I just I get why you would 30 00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:24.120 not come here all the time, because there's a lot 31 00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.000 of cool places to go in Louisville all over the 32 00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:31.560 city and the surrounding area that have great food, restaurant 33 00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:34.719 bar scene. Like you know, I just wish. I wish 34 00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:37.079 people kept Louisville and down. I wish people kept downtown 35 00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:38.959 Louisville more so in the rotation as far as a 36 00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:39.560 place to go. 37 00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:41.359 And you know, have a good time. 38 00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:43.519 And again, I know you could clearly get in, you know, 39 00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:46.000 be in harm's way in downtown Louisville in certain spots 40 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:48.480 and and that sucks. But I think you could also 41 00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:51.359 be in harms way really anywhere around here. That's that's 42 00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:55.239 just the reality of it. And I mean, I shouldn't 43 00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:57.480 speak for anybody. But I mean, I don't know this 44 00:01:57.640 --> 00:01:59.519 for certain, but like I would be highly shocked if, 45 00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:04.959 like when they are having events and live performances from 46 00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:08.000 musical acts or just you know, a Saturday night where 47 00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:09.719 all the bars are open in the restaurants, like I 48 00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:14.360 would imagine they've got pretty pretty legit security to make 49 00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:16.479 sure that, like, you know, people aren't in danger. I mean, 50 00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:17.759 you never know. I mean, hell, you never know at 51 00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:21.159 any point in life. But you know, like I'm not 52 00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:23.000 going to just because you know, I'm washed and I'm 53 00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.159 old up. I'm old and I'm washed up, and you know, 54 00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:29.039 it would just be a real force. But like I 55 00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:30.360 bet it would be fun as hell to hang out 56 00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.240 at four Street tonight, be out there for the concert 57 00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:34.919 and hit up a couple of the bars. And you know, 58 00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.479 I'm sure a lot of people that are here for 59 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:39.639 the derby that aren't from here will enjoy themselves, and 60 00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:41.560 that's great, but it should be a reminder that we 61 00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:43.240 have a pretty cool place here too, that like you know, 62 00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:44.879 wouldn't be a bad idea to come down here and 63 00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:47.000 hit up one of the one of the really good restaurants. 64 00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:48.599 I mean, they've opened up a couple of different restaurants 65 00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:50.960 that I'm sure people aren't even aware of that that 66 00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:53.120 are pretty good. So yeah, they'll have. 67 00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:53.840 A big crowd tonight. 68 00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.639 And you know, I can already feel it, meaning you 69 00:02:57.759 --> 00:02:59.479 just know that there's a lot of people here at 70 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:02.199 least getting here that that that you know, for our 71 00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:05.080 big day, which is Derby, and we do we do 72 00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:07.479 it big. There's nothing like having a big event that 73 00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.360 you embrace. And really, you know, I'm sure there there 74 00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:11.639 have been people that have been to the Derby that 75 00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:14.599 didn't love it and maybe didn't love Louisville, but they're losers. 76 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:15.560 I mean, we're being honest. 77 00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:17.719 I mean, don't take it personal, but like it's a 78 00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:21.360 you problem at least I at least from my perspective. 79 00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.039 That's the way. That's the way I would see it. 80 00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:26.439 All right, let's see where do we want to go here, 81 00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:31.319 just to quickly, to quickly reset some things. We did 82 00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:35.560 talk a little bit earlier about the the NBA Playoffs, 83 00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:37.639 just because I think the NBA Playoffs this year there's 84 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:41.000 been some good some good drama, right, I mean, you 85 00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:45.000 had some near fights in the first couple of games 86 00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:48.400 in these first round series that got me interested because 87 00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:52.599 they were competitive games. I mean the Jannis and Halliburton's 88 00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:55.080 dad thing. I mean that that's certainly a big story 89 00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.280 that brought more attention to that that that matchup than 90 00:03:58.560 --> 00:03:58.960 than you know. 91 00:03:59.000 --> 00:03:59.080 Now. 92 00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:00.439 Of course, it was the end of it, it all, 93 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:04.199 It ended it after that happened. But the Lakers, I 94 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.800 mean the Lakers in Lebron, They're going to be talked 95 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.719 about regardless of what's going on at a really high level. 96 00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:16.519 And I'm just curious, like, is Lebron, like put it 97 00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:19.839 this way, if Lebron didn't do what he did last 98 00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:27.720 summer by you know, really pressuring maybe forcing the Lakers 99 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:29.480 to draft his son in the second round so he 100 00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:31.199 can say that he and his son are both in 101 00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:33.759 the NBA on the same roster together and you know 102 00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:35.639 they were both there on Opening Night, all that kind 103 00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:40.040 of stuff. Like if his son didn't play basketball and 104 00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.560 he played football and that whole thing was net or 105 00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:44.600 he didn't even have a son named Bronnie James, who 106 00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:48.680 you know was fresh out of college after one year, 107 00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:52.199 I wouldn't be shocked if he did decide to hang 108 00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:54.560 it up, Like do you think Lebron is still hungry 109 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:56.560 to like go out there and win a bunch of championships. 110 00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:58.920 I'm not saying that like he doesn't care anymore, but 111 00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:02.959 like he has enough rings. He's won rings with three 112 00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:07.879 different franchises. He's you know, like, even though he's still 113 00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:11.480 playing at a really, really high level, his best days 114 00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:13.680 are clearly in the rear view more so than ahead 115 00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.360 of him. He's forty years old and he has nothing 116 00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:18.800 really left to prove. So for those and I did it, 117 00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:20.600 I did it earlier, but somebody on the text I 118 00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.120 made a good point. But earlier I thought to myself, 119 00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:24.879 you know, he's doing this whole thing where he's got 120 00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:27.079 to talk to his family, he's got to do you know, 121 00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:28.879 he's going to have to see you know, what the 122 00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:31.160 Lakers decided to do because of the roster, and it's 123 00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:33.519 a business and things can change, YadA, YadA, YadA, all 124 00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.639 that stuff. I mean, I still think he's going to 125 00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:38.439 come back, but I only base that off mostly just 126 00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.399 because of the fact that his son is going to 127 00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:43.959 be returning to the NBA at least unless he gets 128 00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:48.959 cut or waved. So if he didn't have a son 129 00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:51.560 that he I guess forced into the NBA, because you know, 130 00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:54.439 he's Lebron James. I wonder like if this would be it. 131 00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:58.800 I mean, he's still playing at a high level. Despite 132 00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:01.759 the Lakers not being a really good team in recent years, 133 00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:03.839 he still puts up big numbers. I mean, if you 134 00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:06.160 watch him even a little bit, you might be able 135 00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:08.240 to tell that he's not what he was in Miami. 136 00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.680 But like he's still one of the best players on 137 00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:14.639 the planet. And usually if that's the case, you continue 138 00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:15.000 to play. 139 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:16.600 But like, I don't, I don't know. 140 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.680 I just feel like when Lebron moved to la despite 141 00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:22.439 him getting that ring in the in the in the 142 00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:24.759 Disney bubble, Like I just feel like at that point 143 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:26.399 it was kind of a confirmation that like he was 144 00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:27.920 still going to play and still going to you know, 145 00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:30.560 I mean, clearly it's still his career. He's not at 146 00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:33.160 there loafing, but I think he's now more focused on 147 00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:37.040 projects that are not basketball and business and fame and 148 00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:38.480 all that. And there's none wrong with it, hi, I mean, again, 149 00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:40.319 the guy's given a lot of years to the NBA. 150 00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:43.920 But Cowherd was really you know, being heavy handed earlier 151 00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:48.160 talking about how he, you know, he doesn't believe there's 152 00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:51.600 any reason that like anybody should consider Lebron not coming back. 153 00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:54.879 And although I agree, I think I only agree just 154 00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:58.920 because of the of the situation with his. 155 00:06:58.879 --> 00:06:59.720 Son BROWNI. 156 00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:03.519 All right, so real quick, the uh we need to 157 00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:05.560 get to a break in just a moment. But one 158 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:08.079 of the things that I thought was interesting is the 159 00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:12.319 NFL jerseys as far as the sales for rookies, like 160 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:16.199 the guys who were drafted, and I guess the top 161 00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:21.120 sellers probably aren't surprising. Travis Hunter number one, cam Ward 162 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:25.439 number two, and then Shudore Sanders is third, Ashton genty four. 163 00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:30.480 And then the receiver McMillan from who went to Arizona, 164 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.600 who's drafted a BYuT the Panthers. He's number five, so 165 00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:37.160 is Shaudoor Sanders being a fifth round pick and yet 166 00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:41.160 having the third most jersey sales, Like, isn't that more 167 00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:45.879 confirmation that like he's I mean, they're succeeding in a 168 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:49.800 major way as far as just relevant and you know, polarizing, 169 00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:52.360 I guess, because I mean you can tell, like the 170 00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:56.879 Browns they wanted shad Or Sanders late in the draft. 171 00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:57.319 Brown. 172 00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.360 I don't know about all Browns fans, but like, and again, 173 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:01.519 if it's your team, whoever they draft, you're going to 174 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:02.519 find a way to embrace it. 175 00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:04.800 But it's so crazy. 176 00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:08.839 They also drafted a quarterback two rounds before they drafted 177 00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:11.800 should Or Sanders, and like nobody's talking about that at all. 178 00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:14.360 Like a third round quarterback, that's somebody who's got a 179 00:08:14.439 --> 00:08:17.040 chance to be your backup right away and might take 180 00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:19.639 over in a year or two. But like Dylan Gabriel, 181 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:23.480 I mean, you've got Brown's players tweeting out a warm 182 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:25.319 welcome to shad Or Sanders. 183 00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.279 Let's ride, let's get it lock in. 184 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:30.600 And yet you know, most guys who get drafted in 185 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:35.440 the fifth round aren't on the team. So I don't know, 186 00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:39.919 just uh, just one of those things that I can't 187 00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:42.480 help but acknowledge. And you know, it's it's a credit. 188 00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:44.679 It's a gift to be able to just constantly be 189 00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:48.440 in in the uh, in the news cycle, constantly being 190 00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.320 talked about for good or bad. I mean, whenever it's 191 00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:54.320 a known thing that you got to you know, you 192 00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:56.559 probably have an opinion, and everybody wants to. I mean, 193 00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:00.120 you know, I guess credit to his dad, because I 194 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:02.399 really feel like it's more his doing than anybody else. 195 00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:06.759 If I'm being honest with you, any chance like he's 196 00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:10.440 their guy next year, Austin, Like any chance that like 197 00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:15.759 shad Or Sanders proves everybody wrong and you know, shows that, 198 00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:17.399 you know, people who passed on him are going to 199 00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:19.759 regret it because I know I don't think so I 200 00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:22.120 don't either, but I'll admit, you know, there might be 201 00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:25.440 a scenario where it's just wishful thinking on my end. 202 00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:30.480 But that's why I kept reiterating that it'd be different if, 203 00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:33.919 like he was viewed as this can't miss prospect, but 204 00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:37.799 he wasn't. He was viewed as maybe the fourth or 205 00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:40.399 fifth best quarterback in a quarterback class. 206 00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:42.039 That's not elite by any means. 207 00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:45.440 So you know when you're drafting guys that are rayed 208 00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:47.720 that that you know because mel Kiper is the guy 209 00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:49.480 who had him as a first round talent and some 210 00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:52.000 others did, but a lot of the NFL told us 211 00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:53.679 that they didn't see him that way because they took 212 00:09:53.720 --> 00:09:57.039 quarterbacks ahead of him, right, So that tells you what 213 00:09:57.120 --> 00:09:57.799 they thought of him. 214 00:09:58.159 --> 00:09:59.320 So you could take away the whole. 215 00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:01.759 Deon Sanders should or Sanders component of like you know, 216 00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:04.759 all the baggage that comes with that, and you know 217 00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:07.120 they looked at him as a guy that they're drafting 218 00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:09.759 to be a backup. Sometimes it didn't play out that way, 219 00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:12.360 but like Sanders is also somebody that, like I think, 220 00:10:12.759 --> 00:10:15.919 you would probably expect it to be a disaster as 221 00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:18.320 far as him embracing being a backup, Like I think 222 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:24.440 he could walk into Kansas City and we'd all think, 223 00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:27.639 is this guy serious? But there's no doubt, like he 224 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.679 would probably act as if he's going to take the 225 00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:31.879 job and that he's better than Patrick Mahomes because that's 226 00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:32.759 just their personality. 227 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:34.559 That's just what they do, you know. 228 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:38.120 And it was almost like these guys are something wrong 229 00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:40.919 with these guys. And what I mean is like Colorado, 230 00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:43.679 they would get beat by six touchdowns seemingly and they 231 00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:46.519 would still be bouncing around and yap and as if 232 00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:49.840 they won, they were up twenty and you know, after 233 00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:52.080 the game, they'd still be posting stuff on social media. 234 00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:54.519 Like the video that Oregon did was the most telling 235 00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:57.559 thing I've ever seen about about Colorado and the program 236 00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:00.320 as far as how they how they sort of, you know, 237 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:04.679 carry themselves without any real reason to carry themselves that way, 238 00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:06.960 as far as just being arrogant because it wasn't just 239 00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:09.159 the Dan Lanning quote, which was awesome. You know, they're 240 00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:12.159 playing for clicks, we're playing for wins and that kind 241 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:16.200 of stuff, which is true. But the Oregon like cinematic 242 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:18.679 video they put out that showed like the before the 243 00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:23.840 you know, the the the coin toss midfield, like they 244 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.360 had cameras close enough, they probably had players miked up 245 00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:29.600 because you could hear Colorado talking reckless noise, like just 246 00:11:29.639 --> 00:11:33.399 talking crazy trash as they're getting blown out, and it 247 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:36.919 just like that's just not only is that a bad look, 248 00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:38.360 Like I don't even know how that's possible, Like how 249 00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:40.440 do you have Like I just think it speaks to 250 00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:42.000 the culture as far as like they don't you know, 251 00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:44.600 they want to win and they got talent, but really 252 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:46.960 it's just about no matter what the result is, we're 253 00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:47.879 going to carry ourselves. 254 00:11:47.879 --> 00:11:49.480 This is we're just we're. 255 00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:53.440 Elite, we're divas, and you know it works clearly, and 256 00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:54.919 I don't mean like it works as far as like 257 00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.480 success on a football field, but Deon Sanders and his 258 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.320 son are proof that, like they've got a gift to 259 00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:03.720 always be you know, talked. 260 00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:04.639 About good or bad. 261 00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:07.159 They're going to stay in the news and you know, 262 00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:10.559 I mean hell, I've talked about him a ton, just 263 00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:13.240 because you know it's it's the biggest talking point seemingly 264 00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:15.559 in sports the last couple of weeks is what's going 265 00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:17.320 to happen with Seidel'd Sanders in the draft? And then 266 00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:18.919 we saw what happened, and then of course it became 267 00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.080 an even bigger thing than most expected. All right, where 268 00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:23.960 we get to our next break, Let's hit another Derby 269 00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:26.200 profile from the one and only Jody Dimmling. 270 00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:30.919 Now look at the Kentucky Derby field one by one, 271 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:32.919 Tis Tastic. 272 00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:37.000 Louisiana Derby winner Tis Tastic. We'll try to get Hall 273 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:40.759 of Fame trainer Steve asbu Soon, the North American leader 274 00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:44.519 in victories, into the Kentucky Derby winner circle for the 275 00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:47.879 first time. The Dark Bay or Brown son of Tis 276 00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:50.639 the Law, the first crop of the Tis of the Law, 277 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.000 who was second in twenty twenty. His Tastic was a 278 00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:56.399 three hundred and thirty five thousand dollars purchase at the 279 00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:59.879 twenty twenty three Keenly in its September Yearling sale be 280 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:02.720 written by Joel Rosario, who has won for thirteen in 281 00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:06.879 the derby. He won aboard Orb in two thousand and thirteen, 282 00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:10.879 as Musin is O for twenty six in the Derby. 283 00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:15.080 He will also run Publisher in this year's Kentucky Derby. 284 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:19.120 Ass Musen has three runner up finishes Epicenter in twenty 285 00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:23.279 twenty two, Looking at Lee in twenty seventeen and Narrow 286 00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:26.879 in two thousand and eleven. Tis Tastic won his first 287 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.320 career race and his second career start back on August 288 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:33.200 twenty ninth at Kentucky Downs in an allowance race. He 289 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:36.879 then won the Kentucky Downs Juvenile Miles Stakes. Just about 290 00:13:36.919 --> 00:13:39.840 a week and a half later. He finished second to 291 00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:43.960 Sovereignty in the Street Sense Stakes at Churchill Downs on 292 00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:47.200 October the twenty seventh. He was third in the Kentucky 293 00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:51.279 Jockey Club Stakes at Churchill Downs. On November the thirtieth, 294 00:13:51.679 --> 00:13:54.440 his Task Tick began his three year old campaign with 295 00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:57.639 a third place finish in the Southwest Stakes at Oakland Park. 296 00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:00.799 He was fifth in the Rebel Stakes. Ask Newson then 297 00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:03.720 shipped him to the fair Grounds where he got rolling 298 00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:06.799 late and won the Louisiana Derby by more than two 299 00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:10.720 links back on March twenty second. Ask Newson has had 300 00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:13.600 some really good horses that he's brought to the Kentucky 301 00:14:13.639 --> 00:14:17.679 Derby and he likes his chances with Tis Tastick. 302 00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:20.840 He's a horse that gave us a great thrill when 303 00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:24.720 in twice in eight days at Kentucky Downs. So you know, 304 00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:27.080 not only has he got talent, he's got an attitude 305 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.320 that would allow allow you to run him twice in 306 00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:32.039 eight days and something like that. I mean, he's just 307 00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:38.840 extremely tough. Louisiana Derby I think gave him an opportunity 308 00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.200 to show what he can do over this a significant 309 00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:43.919 amount of ground at him out on three sixteenths. I 310 00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:47.440 think the difference in him is the ground how far 311 00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:50.360 he gets to go when we were excited about the 312 00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:53.120 pace that appears to be signed on in the Derby. 313 00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:56.919 Louisiana Derby winner Tis Tastick. 314 00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:12.039 Now back to coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on 315 00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:19.879 Sports Talk seven nine day. 316 00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:22.279 I mean, I would be okay if this was played 317 00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.639 on the show every day, but six still Rodriguez's Sugarman 318 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:29.960 is being played because it was my horse and it 319 00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:33.000 was a great story as far as how at least 320 00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:35.120 for me, I mean the story six through Rodriguez a 321 00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:37.720 story is great as we've discussed throughout the week, but 322 00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:39.960 it was an obvious reason for me to just lock 323 00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:43.080 in and say, okay, this is my Derby pick, because 324 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:46.720 first of all, it's it's you know, I'm not when 325 00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:47.879 it comes to looking at things that a lot of 326 00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:49.600 people look at. I wouldn't even know how to do that. 327 00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:54.120 But we just found out during the break breaking news 328 00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:57.360 that Rodriguez has scratched and will not be in the derby, 329 00:15:57.399 --> 00:15:59.960 So Backward's going to have just one horse in the field, 330 00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:05.159 and uh, the departure the scratch of Rodriguez now has 331 00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:08.759 besa I may not be saying that correct, but uh, 332 00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:09.720 I think. 333 00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:11.240 It's ba baisa. 334 00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:13.559 Yeah, that sounds right because I feel like I've heard 335 00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:15.799 somebody mention that if somebody does scratch, that would be 336 00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:17.960 the horse that gets in. And here we are, and 337 00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:19.960 it sounds like there's like real belief that this this 338 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:24.799 horse could compete. So I, uh, I'm bummed about Rodriguez, 339 00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:27.879 I really am and it and I you know, obviously 340 00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:32.320 it's it's the right decision, but you know, it would 341 00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:34.639 have been cool to see that horse win, just because 342 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:36.759 you know, I probably was a little bit over the 343 00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:38.559 top and probably talked about it more than people care. 344 00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:43.639 But I'm telling you that the story behind uh behind 345 00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:47.279 the name there is is just insane. It's it's six 346 00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:49.919 Stough Rodriguez, who American musician who? 347 00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:50.200 You know? 348 00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.679 Again, we don't need to get into it, but you 349 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:55.159 know that was my horse and I felt confident and 350 00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:56.960 now it's now it's scratched, and now I got to 351 00:16:57.000 --> 00:16:58.720 regroup here. Now I got to figure out who else 352 00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:02.440 I'm gonna, uh gonna you know, ride with. You're all 353 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:04.200 in on what Sandman? Is that? Right?

I mean, it's gotta be one of the favorites, 356 00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:13.200 right it is. 357 00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:15.119 I'm listen Metallica. 358 00:17:16.039 --> 00:17:19.519 That concert's the best I've ever seen in person.
