<v Speaker 1>and two hundred.

11
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:28.120
<v Speaker 2>All right, dog. Obviously much to discuss this morning, sir,

12
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:30.719
<v Speaker 2>Where are you going to begin? Oklahoma City? Last night

13
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.759
<v Speaker 2>in a still shocked building. Wow.

14
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:39.640
<v Speaker 3>Tyres Halliburton does it again for the Indiana Pacers. They

15
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:44.439
<v Speaker 3>pull off another last second comeback. They beat the heavily favored,

16
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:49.000
<v Speaker 3>number one seated Oklahoma City Thunder in their own building

17
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:53.600
<v Speaker 3>last night, one eleven, one ten. Haliburton hits. The shot

18
00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:58.320
<v Speaker 3>was zero point three seconds left. He's hit four either

19
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:02.039
<v Speaker 3>game tang or game winning shots in the last second

20
00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:06.159
<v Speaker 3>during these playoffs. He's been unbelievable. He is missed a

21
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:09.879
<v Speaker 3>big shot, no question about it. The Pacers take a

22
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:12.519
<v Speaker 3>one to zero lead in this series. The Pacers turned

23
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:15.760
<v Speaker 3>the ball over twenty five times they trailed by fifteen

24
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Speaker 3>points in the fourth quarter against the team with the best.

25
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Home record in the NBA.

26
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:24.560
<v Speaker 3>They had no answer for Shay Gildess Alexander, the MVP

27
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 3>of the league, who scored thirty eight last night, but

28
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:28.599
<v Speaker 3>they still won the game the.

29
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Final again, the final score was their only lead of

30
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 2>the night. Right, Yeah, believable man talk.

31
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:36.799
<v Speaker 1>I told Pat I went to sleep at halftime because

32
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:38.680
<v Speaker 1>they were up by I think I had ten or something.

33
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Okac he was and I said, yeah, why am I

34
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:42.519
<v Speaker 1>gonna waste the time? I know who's gonna win the

35
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:44.280
<v Speaker 1>whole series? He told me this morning.

36
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:45.680
<v Speaker 4>Who want to? Oh my god?

37
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:49.319
<v Speaker 3>By the way, this fifth time, this is the fifth

38
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:52.159
<v Speaker 3>time of the postseason, in the postseason that Indiana has

39
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:57.560
<v Speaker 3>rallied from fifteen points uh, fifteen points down or more. Incredible,

40
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:00.599
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, they're they're in credib Well. By the way,

41
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:03.040
<v Speaker 3>go read my column in the Orlando Sentinel and you'll

42
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:07.280
<v Speaker 3>realize that the Orlando Magic are actually responsible for both

43
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:09.919
<v Speaker 3>of these teams being in the finals based on a

44
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:12.800
<v Speaker 3>trade they made in twenty six There is.

45
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:14.520
<v Speaker 2>A link to that on the jar Facebook if you

46
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.360
<v Speaker 2>want to go that route as well. All right. Bulldog

47
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:21.199
<v Speaker 2>Stanley Cup finals continue tonight with Game two from Edmonton.

48
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:23.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we need to win tonight. The Panthers need to

49
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.319
<v Speaker 3>win the game tonight. Edmonton's had their fun, they won

50
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:30.680
<v Speaker 3>game won, so we'll probably win tonight. I think it's

51
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 3>still going to be a gentleman's sweep for my Panthers,

52
00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:35.240
<v Speaker 3>but we'll see what happens tonight.

53
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 1>Is that what you call it a gentleman's sweep? That's

54
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:40.800
<v Speaker 1>what you call when they didn't do it sweep verdict.

55
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:44.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you let the other team have one game just

56
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.960
<v Speaker 3>to be polite, Okay, just to be gentlemanly.

57
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:47.599
<v Speaker 4>I hear you.

58
00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 3>So, Texas Tech man, they come back. Last night in

59
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:57.199
<v Speaker 3>the Women's World Series. Nijari Kennedy, the star pitcher for

60
00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:01.520
<v Speaker 3>Texas Tech, the first million dollar player and women's softball.

61
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:05.879
<v Speaker 3>She sort of blew the game in Game one when

62
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.360
<v Speaker 3>she was trying to intentionally walk the Texas player and

63
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:11.800
<v Speaker 3>the Texas players swings at it and you know, gets

64
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:13.039
<v Speaker 3>the game winning hit.

65
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:14.919
<v Speaker 1>Well, last night, last batter.

66
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:18.800
<v Speaker 3>She just went right at her boom boom boom, struck

67
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:22.080
<v Speaker 3>her out on three pitches and Texas Tech ties the

68
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:26.840
<v Speaker 3>College World Series one game apiece the deciding game three

69
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:29.159
<v Speaker 3>will beat tonight. I know you guys will be tuned

70
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:34.439
<v Speaker 3>in for that big news. In the NFL, Aaron Rodgers,

71
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:41.159
<v Speaker 3>a Rodgs, the Ayahuasca Kid, going to the Pittsburg Steelers.

72
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:46.439
<v Speaker 3>He signs a one year deal last or yesterday, so

73
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.199
<v Speaker 3>everybody sort of assumed he was going to end up

74
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.560
<v Speaker 3>with the Steelers because the Steelers made no real moves

75
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 3>at quarterbacks. And now Aaron Rodgers, forty one years old,

76
00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:59.599
<v Speaker 3>will quarterback the Steelers next year. And I know Aaron

77
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Rodgers name still has a lot of casheat. He's a

78
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:06.680
<v Speaker 3>four time MVP. This is a splashy signing by one

79
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:11.159
<v Speaker 3>of the league's most respected franchises. But when you boil

80
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:15.199
<v Speaker 3>this down, this is simply an aging over the hill

81
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:20.319
<v Speaker 3>quarterback signing with a sort of proud but desperate franchise

82
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:23.199
<v Speaker 3>that hasn't won a playoff game in forever. Do you

83
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:24.480
<v Speaker 3>guys think this is gonna turn out?

84
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:26.399
<v Speaker 2>Well? I don't. I don't, And I think what this

85
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:29.399
<v Speaker 2>is to extend on your thought, there is a guy

86
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:31.959
<v Speaker 2>hoping to go out on his own terms with a

87
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:37.800
<v Speaker 2>spectacular phoenix rising from the ashes type season, which that'd

88
00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:39.240
<v Speaker 2>be nice it'd be a great story.

89
00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:41.480
<v Speaker 1>But come on, I think that they're gonna make it

90
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:44.759
<v Speaker 1>at least into the playoffs with him, and maybe he'll

91
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.399
<v Speaker 1>do well next season once he gets peace. I'm I'm

92
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:49.720
<v Speaker 1>a raw you know me. I'm team namer A roj

93
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:52.879
<v Speaker 1>and Terry Bradshaw. I have a question for you, mister

94
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:58.399
<v Speaker 1>Terry Bradshaw. How that taste? What Terry Bradshaw did well?

95
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:00.439
<v Speaker 1>Bradshaw made well. It was while you were on vacation.

96
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:03.639
<v Speaker 1>Bradshaw was like, man, he wished that Aaron Rodgers would

97
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:06.319
<v Speaker 1>just stay in the desert and eating mushrooms and talking

98
00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:06.920
<v Speaker 1>to the gods.

99
00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:10.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

100
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.160
<v Speaker 3>You think you think they're gonna make the playoffs. I

101
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:15.759
<v Speaker 3>think it's gonna be a flaming dumpster fire myself.

102
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:17.839
<v Speaker 1>I say playoffs, you go, dumpster fire?

103
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:22.079
<v Speaker 4>Pat, I say, injured by mid season? Oh god, okay,

104
00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:26.399
<v Speaker 4>I'm ready they get injured. Anthony Richardson, the former Gator

105
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:30.439
<v Speaker 4>quarterback number four overall pick by the Colts a couple

106
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.680
<v Speaker 4>of years ago in the draft. He's hurt again. Now

107
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:37.000
<v Speaker 4>he's hurt again, shoulder injury. They don't know when he's

108
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:40.120
<v Speaker 4>gonna be back, don't even know if he'll be back

109
00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:43.879
<v Speaker 4>by training camp. So Anthony, is it time to declare

110
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 4>him a bust?

111
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:46.839
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I predicted it before he even got

112
00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:50.879
<v Speaker 1>to the NFL, when I watched him in Gainesville a couple.

113
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Of games watching it.

114
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.399
<v Speaker 3>I mean, he's a freak athlete, but he's a China doll.

115
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:57.800
<v Speaker 3>He's just He's just a China doll. He can't stay healthy.

116
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:00.680
<v Speaker 1>And when you leave a game, you know, in the

117
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:02.759
<v Speaker 1>middle of it, you just walk off the field because

118
00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:03.279
<v Speaker 1>you're tired.

119
00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:05.040
<v Speaker 3>You mean when he tapped out, Yeah.

120
00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:05.439
<v Speaker 1>He tapped out.

121
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:07.639
<v Speaker 2>He was that dude.

122
00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:09.959
<v Speaker 1>Seriously, I've told both of you guys going to those

123
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Gators games, he was hot and cold. You'd sit there

124
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:15.920
<v Speaker 1>and go, God, this guy's awesome, and then you'd say,

125
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:17.279
<v Speaker 1>this guy sucks.

126
00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:23.519
<v Speaker 3>Hey, let's real quick. You're mister Motorsports. So NASCAR's in

127
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Michigan this week. You want to explain how this in

128
00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:27.800
<v Speaker 3>season tournament.

129
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:34.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm not even gonna attempt to No, No, come on, man.

130
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:37.879
<v Speaker 3>They're starting their in season tournament this week in Michigan,

131
00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 3>and I'm trying to figure out. I don't even quite

132
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:46.079
<v Speaker 3>understand how their playoffs work. Just now, we're going to

133
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.199
<v Speaker 3>the in season tournament, which I don't understand.

134
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.439
<v Speaker 2>Man, I sometimes I just shake my head at some

135
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:56.360
<v Speaker 2>of the At least NASCAR has a willingness to, you know,

136
00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:59.240
<v Speaker 2>try to change and roll and do different stuff.

137
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:03.879
<v Speaker 3>But no, NBA now is an n season tournament. MLS

138
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:07.319
<v Speaker 3>obviously has in season tournaments. Now I'm NASCAR. Why don't

139
00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:11.839
<v Speaker 3>these these sports leagues just just admit, hey, our season's

140
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.839
<v Speaker 3>too long. Okay, maybe we should just shorten our season

141
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:17.920
<v Speaker 3>so we don't have to have these in season tournaments

142
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:19.399
<v Speaker 3>to try to keep people interested.

143
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:19.879
<v Speaker 2>How about that?

144
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:20.839
<v Speaker 1>Agree?

145
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:21.759
<v Speaker 4>I agree?

146
00:07:22.079 --> 00:07:24.480
<v Speaker 2>No, no F one desk action this week. F one

147
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:24.920
<v Speaker 2>is off.

148
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's what That's what's making NASCAR do all this

149
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:29.920
<v Speaker 1>stuff too. Is F one's scaring them.

150
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:32.639
<v Speaker 2>Maybe a few years ago, I think that threat is

151
00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:33.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of backed off a little bit.

152
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:37.759
<v Speaker 1>You're hearing this in the background, Hey, Dog, I wrote
