Speaker 1 (01:16):
I'm gonna keep this nice and tight so that we
can get all of the time that we need.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Tight shoots. Tower of True. It's the reason you listen
to The Couple on Thursday. That's real.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
So that's coming up in about twenty eight minutes, and
last call your chance to get in.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
In case you couldn't get in earlier in the program.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
And the Pacers got off to a slow start and
they are now high octane.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, they're going Tejer McConnell just missed two free throws.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
You can't miss to twenty four to seventeen. But they're up,
you know what I mean. And they were off to
a bad start, and you know, it's a good start
for them.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
It is.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
It's gonna be a good game because they're they're gonna
be competing for the you know, they're literal.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Lives and that's what And even to Spread was like six,
which which isn't which is you could have thought, oh,
it's gonna.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Be a blowout. Halliburn's not playing, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Even Vegas is not like gonna give anybody twelve points
or you know what I mean, or anything like that.
They're like, no, you want to put it at a
number where enough people are going to bet on it
both sides.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Yeah, it's be good.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
But I mean, obviously Halliburton gave them some minutes. He
didn't do much, but just being out there I'm sure
inspired a team, and it's less minutes for teaching me,
kind of like he doesn't have to play thirty thirty
five minutes where that's just.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Not where he's affected. He's not going to be affected.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
He's perffective in those spurts where he can play all
out hard as he can for four or five minutes
and then go get a break and come back for
four or five minutes.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
That's where he's effective.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
So Halliburton won for five, but he did make a three,
which was a big moment for the crowd, but one
for five so far to start, some of his shots
kind of heavy, like really you know when you miss
at the school yard and the ball goes outside of
the park.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Y, you know what I'm about?
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Juiced up man and he's well maybe literally to stuff,
but he's trying to uh you know, they trying to
come like he's trying to be aggressive and not to
mention the nerves of this is an elimination game too,
so he'll he'll get his setting. But I do three
minutes left in his first quarter, I think the Thunder
will be only down like two. They're gonna make a
little close out run and then.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Still a good start, but you don't want to get
buried and you don't want to take the crowd out
of it. You just want to have a good feel
for it. And then again you gotta be careful because referees.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Do that thing. Let me see the league game. Particular person.
I ain't gonna say his name, but you know what
I mean.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
He is not I don't see him. And you know
who I'm talking about. The extender is who they call him.
I don't see him. So is a deflator there or
just no? I know he didn't make it. He thought
that's the best nickname. Hey, your kid, do what you
do deflate the balls. That sounded crazy, rob G.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
We need you. I know that did sound crazy? Al
did you get that? Yeah, he ain't pay attention to
Thank God, because that was crazy. Rob G? What are
we saying? Not set the table? I can't forget team
me up, tee me up. You know what?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
We should get the Star Trek sounder for beat me
up instead Scotty beat me up. Rob I would like
a reference that's like, no, you're never gonna get one,
rob G.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
What do you want from something in the nineties or two?
I even spotted you to ninety. You do know the
nineties was thirty something years ago now and I'm still
spotting you the nineties.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
No, it has to be the seven.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I told you the last TV show I watched on
a regular basis with Seinfeld, and that went off in
the nineties, didn't it.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
That is that's crazy. That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
On a week I'm here, I'm tuning in at eight o'clock.
I'm there, Yeah, this is And then, rob G, this
is what we have to do.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I did find a new show that I'm watching, new
to you.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
But it came out and no, stop it listen to you.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, uh, Sinbad a TV show from Britain. I'm thinking
were talking about the black comedian Sindbad.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
No. And you know what's crazy is I just new
to me?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
And then I go and look to find out when
it came out with like, oh two twenty twelve, it's
still thirteen years ago.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
But for you, that's crispy brand new. That's like pulling
out a pair of all new Air Force ones. Crispy,
that's how new they are for you. Twelve that was
an hour ago for you, rob G.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
Theyved got cell phones in this show. Guys, it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Can you believe it? They might just mention the social.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
Media app they might while speaking to social media guys.
As you know, here in LA and across the country,
social media has been buzzing both positively and negatively with
regards to these ICE rays and been going on in
all of basically all the major cities, but especially here
in Los Angeles, where we do our show from, and
earlier on Thursday, after days of silence, basically the Los
(05:55):
Angeles Dodgers finally I guess engaged because they announced on
their social media that ICE agents attempted to enter Dodger
Stadium for reasons that are still unknown up to this point,
and Dodger security said no, they blocked them. Since then,
Department of Homeland Security and ICE representatives in LA have
(06:16):
said that that is not true. We did not have
anybody stationed there, even though there is video and photographic
evidence that shows there are some ICE Border Patrol individuals
right there.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
They're just killing me this state.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Yeah you know what I mean, Like, oh no, that
we didn't do that, and then they got the video
of it, like like like this is why you need
the media.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Every time people talk about seriously like like that.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
This is why, because if you just go by a
government's recollection, that's what they would tell you. And you
got to this is where the difference between this country
and so many others press yes, oh that never happensed
or whatever.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
This is why you hope and pray for you know,
fair and impartial news. Just still get me straight back.
I'm not trying to lean your left right up down.
I'm just telling you what it what it is.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
So, guys, the Dodgers are expected at some point today,
I don't think we've seen it yet, to announce a
plan to assist the immigration community impacted by these raids
going on here in Los Angeles. And as a result,
if you look at the Dodgers social media pages, there
is a war going on, for lack of a better term,
between two sides. Those that are saying thank you Dodgers
(07:23):
for getting involved and finally standing up for your community
you're in Los Angeles, and those that are Dodger fans
who now are saying, we are former Dodger fans because
you are stepping yourselves into a social political issue.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
It has happened through the from the beginning of time.
We're a part of a society. You can't just sit
by and act like well, an act like nothing's going on.
This has happened forever. And I do believe that your responsibility,
(07:58):
no matter what you are, is as a human being first,
and if something really affects you and the people around
you and you have some sort of influence. I'll tell
you a story. Willie Horton story in Detroit with the
riots going on. He was a popular player, black player.
(08:24):
Riots break out in Detroit. He goes out there to
try to calm people in his Tiger uniform. Because he
was so popular. People were worried about how you're gonna
get hurt out there, whatever, But he felt that he
had to try to do something that compelled to try
to help the community that was going through something at
that point, you know what I mean, And I think
that that's important. People can do whatever they want. I
(08:47):
hear it all the time, and I'm just gonna be
straight up. When people don't hear what they want to hear,
they'll say athletes shouldn't say anything, they should just whatever.
But then when they invite athletes who as saying what
they want to hear, they put those athletes on and
they don't have any issue with it or those entertainers, right,
(09:12):
you know what I mean? Like, so which one is it?
So nobody? So you shouldn't put athletes on who are
pro whatever your spiel is and then be negative towards
the other ones who are saying something that you don't
believe in. I mean, that's my biggest issue. I think
we all have a responsibility.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Uh yeah, I'll give you an example of what you're
just talking about. Blue lives matter, Blue lives matter, storm
the state capital, injury, you know, and abuse and end
up lives being taken at the state capital. Blue lives
no matter now because you're beating up all the hundreds
of police who were there. So it's you know, blue
lives matter, Blue lives matter, storing the capitol. We beat
up to the Capitol police. So it happens all the time,
(09:49):
all right. So for me, I think this is always
an interesting conversation because it becomes where does a business,
an organization, and athlete and entertainer responsibility lie. Because you
have some entertainers Marancis, Michael Jordan. We know privately he's
given some money to folks and try to help out
all this criticized during his plane because he was not
(10:13):
publicly standing up for this, standing up for that, speaking
up for this.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Nobody wants you to be uh speaking on every situation that.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Comes on, and I don't in a rupt I do
want to say this Tiger Woods when he's at the Masters,
but they had no black members to nineteen eighty nine,
that that's where Tiger Woods should voice. Hey, if you can't,
I'm black, okay, no matter what he called itself. If
you won't allow black members here, I don't think I'm
(10:42):
going to skip the Masters.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's how you force change. Couple with that. Do you
and I have talked about this off air?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Knowing what he went through walking into clubhouses you're not
allowed to be in here, don't.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
You remember it?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Was it Fuzzy Zeller said, they've got fried chicken and
collar greens and watermelon serv This is.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
What we also, knowing what you dealt with, you would
think you would have this this ambition to h to
speak up and be a part of change.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Which is why.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
But here's the why some people don't rob and ultimately
why they become heralded in praise later. Everybody loves a
fuzzy warm story of Muhammad Ali. Do you know it
wasn't like that. He went through hell standing on business.
He went through hell, standing on what he believed in,
standing up for his community, telling y'all want me to
go and you know, injury and kill black, brock and
(11:30):
brown people in Vietnam when I can't get treated my
people can't get treated right here fairly. People hated him,
bashed them. Who's the think is all this death threats?
And then yes, twenty thirty years, Oh we love Mohamad Ali.
Happens all the time. He lived the Olympic torch. He
lit the Olympic torch in ninety six. Bill Russell stood
on business. People hated him to his death. He had
(11:52):
a hate love hate relationship with the city of Boston,
not the Celtics. He loved his team, but he said
the treated way that city treated him coming home, the
feace spread all over his house, house broken in death
threats to his family in the city of Boston. He
never loved the city of Boston. He loved his Celtic
He was very adamant about that. My point is, so
you have people who speak up, who stand up, and
(12:15):
there are oftentimes sacrifices that come with it, penalties that
come with it, which scare some people, the loss of money,
the loss of fame, the loss of notoriety, the you know,
and just feeling as if they, you know, I'm a
death threats I have to go through this. But then
you get the other side of people who say, uh,
I'm just gonna, you know, go out there and play it.
And I can understand feeling why do I have to
(12:36):
speak up? And oftentimes what happens in these big issues
and these big matters, especially here in the States, it
always falls on the black athlete to have to speak up.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Hey Kareem Louiel Sander in sixty eight.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Hey Bill Russell, Hey, I understand that because we're the
minorities and the majority is never gonna Why do they
need to speak up when they're not involved, They're not
being deprived?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Uh, because do you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (13:02):
The first thing you said, they're humans first, and your teammates.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I agree, But I'm saying you not looking for them
to do it, is what I'm saying. You're gonna have
to And there are some people could say whatever they
want about Aaron Rodgers at the time when the controversy
went on, about Colin Kaepernan. He was the first white
quarterback I heard said it wasn't about uh the military,
you know what I mean? Like like he said something,
(13:30):
and that's what I mean.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
So when you say, of course, it's always incumbent upon
I'm just saying. But I'm saying, as you are, you
always tell me. If I was in that room as
the media, I would ask already know, if I was
in that room, I would say, Hey, Peyton Manning, why
aren't you speaking up on Tom.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Brady as I'm not familiar with.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I don't really know. Yeah, teammates who kneeled and Tom
Brady act. So my point is it always?
Speaker 4 (13:52):
And then I asked I had a chance to ask
Kareem Abdul Jabbar this a few years ago, uh, when
we was live it was during George Floyd summer and
the protests and then this turns the you know, chaos
here in Los Angeles and we had them live on
here and asked him, said, why was it always a
coming upon you? Why was it always coming upon other
black athletes and no one else ever has to do it?
And he said that was just a burden, that was honest,
and we had to do it. But this is where organizations,
(14:15):
what's your ethos, what matters to you, what's your role
in the community. And thankfully there are a lot of
organizations who stand up, who speak up, who are part
of the community, who are willing to take the heat
for a little bit. You know, people are gonna be honest,
who are willing to you know, have a certain part
of the fan base that might be upset with you,
But when you stand on what your team, your organization
(14:37):
is about, what your organization believes in, ultimately, I think
things work out for you and you become endeared and
beloved in your city and your community, in your town.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
There were teams, you know, when Jackie Robinson broke into
baseball that just what are no part no part of
it and their fans and all that kind of stuff,
and the Dodgers still went along with it. And I'm
not saying that the Dodgers were strictly because they were
this uh uh franchisey Wright uh Brench Rickey saw all
(15:12):
these black people in Brooklyn walking past the stadium and
not buying tickets, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
And I'm not mad at him. He's a businessman, right,
And sometimes it takes a spark.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Sometimes hey, sometimes it is a business there that turns
to doing the right thing that changes the game. But yeah,
you you definitely want at some point, organizations, people athletes
who do what's right to speak up for the committee,
for the community, because for humanity. And like I said,
that's why I gave examples of Muhammad Ali. He did
it when it wasn't popular. Uh lebron to his credit,
(15:41):
and now he jumps in everything. But to this, you
don't want to that that's what that's he does. But
he stood up when he at the peak, and people
would be like, wow, I'm shocked this guy would do that.
Like we said when Tiger Woods wouldn't, when Michael Jordan
wouldn't often Billy Jeane King. You know, there's just people
who have been about standing on things that matter, standing
for the good. If he made any standing for the
good of people, and you love to see it because
(16:03):
it costs people, it's gonna cost you something.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
You got that, But that's life like that, that's there's
a sacrifice you have to give to get I've said
a million times people don't understand that the oppressors are
not going to just go oh you know what.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
We just figured it out. Man, weird. This is wrong.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Here you go, no, and you got a pressure and
some players how they get their big deal dealer.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Yeah, we want to deal. Yeah, yeah, no, we want
to deal. No, no yet, okay, you know what, no
World Series? Okay, now what they get they got a deal.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Union. NFL doesn't have a good union.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
You know why because they refuse to stop the money
that like you have to have a sacrifice, all right,
eight seven, seven ninety nine On Fox we do want
you to chime in on this please eight seven seven
nine nine six sixty three sixty nine. Do you believe

they kind of just hey, we're in it for business.
Your thoughts A seven seven ninety nine one Fox.
Speaker 1 (18:30):

Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 7 (18:34):
What's up, George, Good eating gentlemen, and I want to

Speaker 2 (18:46):
We appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
We gotta George, you know what, We got to talk
about it, and we're not going to be afraid to
talk about certain stuff.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
People.
Speaker 7 (18:53):
You're not that you and I listened to your view
and your predecessor, the other fellow who went to IB
in college. I just get a kick out of the show.
You weren't here and where all live in the Eastern Shore.
When I first moved here, they were doing local oil
(19:14):
farm team here in Salisbury was broadcasting at night, and
that changed with that new ownership and all. But you
picked up Fox and I heard about Robert Parker, and
I said, oh, this would be interesting. A guy knew
something about wine is going to tell me about sports.
That was you, and that was I thought it was
so funny. But I got to say a few things
(19:36):
to you. Because I'm eighty five years old. I played
college basketball in the fifties, and we played up at
Seaton Hall in St. Pete's and up that way in
New York against different teams up that way, and I
played ball at Loyl in Baltimore. But things are so segregated.
But the playgrounds weren't, but everything else was. It was.
(20:00):
It was an awful world to be raised in a sense,
and yet it was a good world because everybody looked
after everybody in the neighborhood. And we're missing that with
these these phones and all. I think the discussions that
have been made on the air on your station has
been interesting, and some people are ducking and hiding on
it because I think they're free of loosen your job,
(20:22):
and maybe they have a big mortgage, they got kids
to feed and all that stuff. Walker, you're a little
foot loose and fancy free. But you've been through it.
I've been through it several times myself. But I raised
the family and I'm old fish. We got to keep
talking about it. I talked to a ninety four year
old woman today and we had a great discussion. Because
(20:43):
I called. I sent the message to her son and everybody.
I knew that that was a color yesterday got a
message from me to enjoy their holiday today. He swept
under the carpet, and that's wrong. We have to face
this thing.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
We're all human.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Absolutely, you got to deal with it. You just can't
appreciate the costs sounds. Yeah, and uh, we appreciate that.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
By the way, man, since I've been on since I've
been on this show, you and I have had no problem.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Talking about that.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
You know, we we we we enjoy that and we
trust our listeners enough that they can join in. And
I don't have to agree with us, but we can
have it educated in an informative conversation, respectfully.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
No doubt.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Let's squeeze one more in Andre from Massachusetts. You're in
the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
What's up, Dre, Hey, how you doing?
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Thanks for taking a call. Yeah, the educated and informed conversations,
you know, that's how you increase the body of Now,
that's how you add surplus value, you know, so people
can expand their understanding and then that that's where you
can have the connection. But in terms of athletes, I'm
of the opinion they do they do need to speak
up and they do need to walk point because that's
the legacy. Frankly, of the African American and the minority
(21:53):
athlete in the United States of America. Rock This goes
all the way back to Rube Foster with the Negro
Baseball League, which.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
One of them one of the.
Speaker 8 (22:00):
Largest African American businesses in the world. And but before
branch Ricky came in with his ideas for yes integration,
but then also taking away some of the economic power.
And I'll conclude with the legacy also includes if you
want to talk about Bill Russell, you want to talk
about Jim Brown, you want to talk about Korea, Abdul Jabbar,
Let's go back to the Cleveland summit where they surrounded
Muhammad Ali and said, you know something, We're going to
(22:22):
support him because what he's talking about is more than patriotism.
There are certain systemic things that need to change. That's
what his real message is. And we as prominent African
American and minority athletes, are not going to allow him
to be pushed to his side, are not going to
allow what he's trying to accomplish to be misrepresented. So
the new generation, if you want to affect changes, so
(22:43):
many athletes do because they come from underprivileged community. The
legacy is You've got to be out there walking point
and then people will see that leadership and support you.
Thanks taking a call.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
Thank you always appreciate it all right, man, appreciate the
conversation too. Thank you so much for having us with us.

We do that.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
Paul in North Carolina, You're on the odd couple of
Fox Sports Radio and you are the last call.
Speaker 10 (35:28):
Hey guys, I never in a million years thought I'd
ever call Fox Sports Radio to talk about Bruce Hornsby
the music he just played. But I wanted to share
so listen. Bruce Hornsseby a little unknown fact about it.
Well known fact, but he played in The Grateful Dead
from nineteen ninety or eighty eight to ninety five. But also, guys, listen,
let me give you a sports connection. Bruce Hornsby played
(35:49):
in Asheville in the summer of twenty eleven and his
best Buddies with Rick Carlile right after, right after Carlisle
won the championship with the Mavericks, he brought Rick Carlyle
on stage with him with the NBA trophy in his hand,
and he played guitar with Bruce Hornsby and Ashville. So
there's a sports connection.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
And you know what he did it in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I met brucell Ornsby in Detroit whencall was a coach.
He came in and hung out and I met him,
and that's I've always liked his music.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
So you're spot on him and recaller of buds. Nice
look at that.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Look at it you getting musical, Thank you, Paul, musical
and sports ties here by speaking of sports game six
right now, sixty forty two Pacers on Fire and sixty
four forty two and uh it's and this is a
key part right here, one of the bench points.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
You just got a bunch of guys. You already know
the bench players play better at home, Yeah, they do.
Speaker 4 (36:44):
And what's disappointing about the Thunder I was telling Robb
g this, the Thunder are forgetting that they're the Thunder,
that they're up three to two and they're the favorites,
and they're playing desperate, They're they're they're forcing the shots.
That's not the way they play out Chet Holmgre trying
to do one on one Stuffga forcing up stuff, and
what's gotten them there is team ball movement and obviously
(37:04):
great defense, and so SGA has On paper it looks good,
he's six for eleven fifteen, but he's got five turnovers,
he's got forced in the middle and made some bad,
you know, decisions. So it's this, But listen, we've seen
it all postseason long. Fifteen point twenty point leads have
been overcome all postseason long.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
So we'll have to wait and see what happens.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
But love the energy the Pacers have come out with
and the guys are just responding exactly how you would
hope for in an elimination game.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Man, I mean, you knew they're fighting for their lives.
So I'm not totally shocked that they would give it.
But they've gotten something from Halliburn, who's.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Got off slow. Starting his mates twelve and four, three
or five on threes.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
It's huge, you know what I mean. So that's something
that they got. Remember he didn't have a field goal
in the last game. And remember I keep saying the
key number twenty. When he scores twenty, they're eight no,
and he has twelve night, Now could it be nine
to oh if he gets eight more points when he
tours you more, they're eight zer in this postseason.
Speaker 4 (38:01):
So uh, we'll see how this plays out. But no,
it looks like a good way. And we mess around
to get a game seven? Man, when would it be Sunday?
Speaker 1 (38:09):
It would be two weeks from Monday. I'm just saying, dude,
you ain't lying. They'd be like fourth of July game seven.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
My god. Yeah, they got it. They got a ridiculous
like you would want the momentimum game just.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Be every other day unless you gotta travel, you know what,
I been back to back Like, I don't get it.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
So yeah, I'm trying to think, yeesh, it'll probably be
what Sunday. But either way, we'll see it Sunday. We'll
see how this we'll see how this plays out. But
Halliburton playing TJ. McConnell also playing big for them. They
they're getting twenty two points now. Nobody, nobody sees this coming,
all right, So we'll see how it finishes. Joy and
the rest of your June teenth people out there in
these Juneteenth streets, back at it tomorrow on Friday.
