here on the northeast side of San Antonio, where we
find ourselves now thirty five days till the NBA Draft
to clean five weeks away from uh what is potentially

(01:00):
a huge draft for the state of Texas, with MAVs
and Spurs having the first two picks. Been talking a
lot of NBA on the show recently. Figure, well, we'll

finals games kicking off, but saving the main segment tonight

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Absolutely free and it helps us a lot as we
march towards five hundred and beyond. I mentioned obviously main
segment tonight, we're going to talk some NFL, but as
always on Wednesday, as we start with what I watched
last night, and I would assume, like most people, it

(03:26):
was locked into the game ones of the NBA and
NHL Conference Finals, focusing mainly last night, I don't really
have a whole lot of I think Florida is going
to destroy Carolina and the hockey, so we're not going
to spend a lot of time on that.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
They got beat up.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, they got beat on the scoreboard and physically, and
you know, unfortunately the same might be said for this
Oklahoma City Minnesota series, because.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Please don't let us get robbed from a great series
from injury, please these basketball gods.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, Ant, Ant ended up getting injured there in the
first half, but came back Thunder. The Thunder didn't play
their best game and still see, you know, very easily
won Game one against the te Wolves, end up forcing
nineteen turnovers, and I saw at one point in the
second half the Thunder had only they had still only

(04:23):
attempted like eight three pointers.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah, they were just killing him on the inside. I
mean Ant like, statistically, man, he's twenty six point five
points per game, forty five field goal percentage for, thirty
six from behind the arc, eight rebounds a game, and
five point three assist I mean, yeah, the problems not Ant.
They don't have him. I don't see that team going anywhere.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Oh god, no, No, that's that's the beginning and the
end of any chance the t Wolves have in this series.
And it looked like, you know, in the first half
when Ant was banged up, you know, Julie Randall could
hardly miss a shot. He ends up, oh, I think
he only missed one shot in the first half.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Then he got called soon's Ant came back on the floor.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, unfortunately, unfortunately, that is pretty much exactly what happened,
but you mentioned I mean, obviously, when you think of
this reworked timber Wolves team after the Karl Anthony Towns trade,
you know, Ant obviously still your number one, Randall your
number two. But as far as the rest of that roster,

(05:29):
you know, go Bear is unplayable in this series. Oh
he barely cracked twenty minutes, you know, only had one basket,
ended up with two points.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
What happened to the two time defensive player of the Year.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
Man, It's all matchups, I mean, it's all there's just
no you know, thinking about think about how far we
are from that closeout game against the Lakers in Game
one where he had like twenty eight points, eighteen rebounds
and was dominant, dominant, the actual reason they won that game.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
So it's so we're saying, is the theme that I
keep going on is the youth in the speed is
getting to go Beart.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, that's that's the killer to go bet and go
Beart is always that guy. He's the he's the guy
that contributes to a fifty win plus regular season team,
but once it gets down to matchups in the postseason,
absolutely becomes unplayable. If the matchup exactly if the matchup
is that bad, and I mentioned, you know, it's not

(06:27):
all on go Beart. I mean de Vincenzo is three
for fourteen, three for twelve on threes.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Oh yeah, yes, horrible.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
SGA's cousin Alexander Walker three for eleven, two for nine
on threes. The t Wolves have I mean Nas Reed
one for eleven, zero for seven on threes. Yeah, I
mean between Reed, Devincenzo and Alexander Walker, what is that
twenty one twenty eight, five for twenty eight on three
point attempts from those three guys off your bench.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
That was a classic. When you see your superstar go down,
you are a def late it, especially Game one, you know.
And if he came back and just acted like his
ankle didn't hurt him, which wasn't the thing. He was
just standing around, barely running off screens, barely running without
off the ball or doing anything like that. They knew it.

(07:17):
They knew he was hurt, and it just it showed
in their play.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah. And you know, speaking of Ant, he finishes five
for thirteen for eighteen points, and you know, really Randall
finished with twenty eight, but he did all his damage
in the first half. I think he had twenty at
the half and then eight in the second half. So,
you know, for a Minnesota team that only played they
they they played ten twelve guys last night, but really

(07:43):
they played eight. I mean most of those were the
when the game was over at the fourth you had
guys getting you know, like Luke Luka Garza getting two
minutes at the end of the game, like he's they're
not part of the rotation.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
They got the cheer squad out there, and you look.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Exactly the tyle Waivers. Yeah, you know, Minnesota is rotate.
Their rotation is eight guys. Oklahoma City can throw all
of a sudden. Last night, you're seeing guys that had
just you know, heinrich Or I know, yeah, the god
what is his Kendrick? What is his name? Yes, well,

(08:20):
he hasn't played since the of the tire, He hasn't
played since the first round of the playoffs, But all
of a sudden, he is just banging knocking down threes
for them last night. One of a big part of
that seventeen to two run in the in the third quarter.
I watched the first half at the house and kind

(08:41):
of thought to myself, Okay, well you know it looks like,
looks like this is going to be a game worth
going out in the neighborhood to watch. So I ended
up Williams, Kendrick Williams, that's his name, the guy I
was trying to think of. But you know, guys like
Williams and Wiggins all of a sudden back in the rotation.
Oklahoma City playing ten guys.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Oklahoma City guy.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, yeah, that's who that is. But I you know,
I leave the house at halftime, get to the bar
and watching the game, and by the time I get
a drink, Oklahoma City is already taking control of the
third quarter. And it, I mean yah, Minnesota kept within
sniffing range, but it.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Was they couldn't get over the hump, and it really
showed if you didn't hear it. SGA got his formal
MVP this morning, this afternoon, and in this playoffs he
is thirty two point seven points five rebounds, six point
four persist assists, and fifty one point nine percent field

(09:41):
goal percent.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Basically right on his season averages.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yeah, and he's keeping it up during the playoffs and like,
and that's not just going to the hole. That's just
not going to the hole every time. Man he's he's
mastered the mid range.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Yeah, and okay, let's talk about SGA, because Doris Burke
last night on the broadcast got a little shot in
at SGA, and I think there was a I think
there is a lot of truth to what she said.
I mean she didn't it's nothing original from her. I
mean she's just referencing whatever what you have this LG.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
I gotta throw that up there for the people, because
rarely do you hear an announcer not It wasn't an attack,
but it was absolutely a backhanded compliment towards SGA, the
league MVP during Game one of the conference Finally.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
You look good if that's the best you can do.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Exactly.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
He's a great free throw shootout.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Five of seven, so he's taken seven free throws over
any four.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
And a half minutes.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
So the reason NBA Twitter likes to call him the
free throw merchant, like and that's it right there. That
was four and a half minutes into the game. He
had all he attempted seven free throws, and.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
But he's getting the MVP treatment.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Okay, one thousand percent, but he wasn't the MVP. And
first of all, Joki should be the MVP, but we're
tired of giving it to the same guy. Jokic had
a much better year analytically looking at the numbers. But
SGA's team won sixty what sixty eight games or whatever.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
It was the most valuable player. That means that makes
your team the most year play, makes your team the
best team there is. That's why it was very rarely
when we saw Russell Westbrook when he averaged a triple double.
But Okac was hot garbage.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
You know, he won it the one year he got
the one MVP.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
And that's just because he averaged No one's averaged a
triple double since what Oscar Robinson.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
Yeah, at that point Oscar Robertson. You know, it's crazy.
The Thunder Now they're what seventeen years in Oklahoma City now,
I think I think whenever they left Seattle, they have
had three MVPs now in that short amount of time.
Durant Wes now, SGA, that's crazy, isn't it? And one

(12:04):
step further, the last American MVP now was hardened in
that twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen year Rockets Rockets Yeah, WOA, Yeah,
So you know it's been dominated now, SGA Canadian fifty
first state, Jokic and Yannis and.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
I don't see too many Americans is gonna do it.
Maybe Ant's gonna battle for it. Wemby, He's gonna be
up there sooner or later.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Oh yeah, and there's another international. If Luca ever wins one,
he's gonna be in the sniffing, you know, in the
running at least for the next five years.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Especially with the la bias that old races bastard at
the bar next him. He's not gonna like that.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Yeah, it's you know, it's a lot of I think
there's a lot of truth when we talk about, you know,
what the struggles the NBA has right now. You know,
we talked a little bit about it Monday night, kind
of this this changing of the guard, you know, passing
up the baton between the old generation and these new guys.
And the fact that you know, Ant is marketable because

(13:09):
he's big personality. Sga is not marketing. I mean, he's
he's a soft spoken Canadian. We talked about this Monday Now.
He's got the look the thunder on market. I mean,
he's got the look like sure, you know, yeah, I
mean he's he's going he's wearing and I think he
had a he had a nice uh new rolex at
his MVP speech presentation today. But the league is looking

(13:31):
for you know, like jok You're not marketing Jokic to
a national American audience. You're not marketing Giannis. Even Luca,
Luca has Yeah, that would be great. He does love
his horses. I saw Jokic speaking of him. He was
asked what he was planning on doing after they had

(13:52):
got eliminated, and he was like, I'll probably just drink beer. Yeah,
like it's the off.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Season, go home, play with my horses.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Many Nico Harris and uh probably hated to hear that.
But speaking of SGA and and specifically the foul merchant label,
the thing that bothers me the most. Like, first of all,
it's it's bad for basketball. It's just not a it's
not a visually appealing part of the sport. When you

(14:19):
have a guy that hunts contact and hunts fowls like that,
and even if it's not flopping, it's absolutely accentuating the
smallest amount of contact to draw the call. Well that's
not that's that's just that's not refs. But it's not
a good viewing Product. A thousand percent agree it's on
the refs to not reward that. But they're going to

(14:40):
because now when was the golden there Michael?

Speaker 1 (14:44):
And what do we love about Michael throwing his body
up getting that contact making spectacular shot.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
But you can't compare the way SGA draws fouls to
the way George like, that's not That's why I say
it's on the rest. SGA draws fouls like he's the
old man at the y literally calling everything that everyone hates,
you know, with I.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Don't know who was like, I wish I could give
them credit. I heard after the first round they were like,
they're they're letting them play. They're letting him play rough
and that's why we got all geeked over.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
The Detroit, New York.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Yeah, and it was just like, yeah, they're letting him play.
And then like someone I think from the Four Letter
Network was like, they're gonna look at it, they're gonna
reel it in, They're gonna start calling fouls.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Yeah, and they.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Are spot on.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Well, I would still say the most frustrating part of
it is it seems like throughout these playoffs they are
they're letting everybody play except for whoever's guarding SGA. It
seems like he has such a unique whistle compared to
every other player that's in the playoffs this year. He

(15:51):
is getting no again because the refs hate Luca. Luca
actually doesn't get as many calls as he should. His
is the opposite way.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Where he knows how to use his body and if
I had to hear the announcers, Oh, he's so masterful
in the way he contorts his body to get the foul.
The comparison is, Jokic does the same thing. The comparison is,
but look at the way.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Look at the way Jokic didn't get the calls against
Oklahoma City. You could argue that Jokis should have drawn
at least three more calls the other night or Sunday
in Game seven. But because the Thunder plays such a
physical style of basketball, they get away with a lot
because putting the pressure on the referees to make every
single call when you're that physical.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
So if that's the thing I'm going to start looking
for now, I'm going to like, I have not been
really keen on to see if he's getting the hardened
you know, Lebron treatment and all that stuff. But I
know the MVPs get a little bit more leeway, and
he is the MVP.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
But he wasn't the MVP last night when he was
getting all those calls, it hadn't been announced.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Yeah, I think I think Minnesota got lazy ones and
and down. I think they got lazy. Their hands weren't up,
their hands were down. He knows how to draw that
basketball shot into a foul. And if you're sitting there
garden like this instead of garden like this, you know
he'll like, why not why not get two free points

(17:17):
and a shot at the goal?

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Sure, No, again, I don't think it's on it's it's
it's the same way it was with Harden eight years
ago when he won MVP and and the years shots.
It's not on the player to change if it's being
rewarded because it's leading to winning basketball games. So you
can't argue with the results. But you also can't really

(17:43):
hold the player accountable because what's the point of playing
the game to win? And what is he doing. He's
doing things that are helping his team win the game.
That's where you're absolutely spot on. It has to fall
on the officials to not reward like there are there
are certain obviously, like I'm not saying swallow the whistle

(18:04):
and let's play nineteen eighties bully ball. But this like
slight hand check contact, like a hand on their head. Yeah,
where it's not like clearly the hand is there, so
technically it's a foul, but they're not.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
They're pushing them OUTA.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Ga jumped sideways. It's like he just got blown by
a tsunamis. Yes, it's so it's infuriating to watch. And
what makes it it again the same way it was
with Harden. What makes it so infuriating is he's such
a good player. Harden was such a good player at

(18:41):
that point in his career. Sga is such a good
player now. Defense, well, it's not he's the he's the
weakest link on that team, but he's he's a part
of a great team. Defense. The Thunders defense is what's
going to you know, if they if they win the
championship that year, which they are clearly the massive, massive favorites,

(19:03):
it's going to be because of their offense disappears at
times like it did last night, like it did in
the first half of that game.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
They won't break a hundred, but they'll keep the game.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
They're gonna win a lot of one hundred and ninety eight. Yeah,
you know, if it if it's a close game.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
That's why I hope Aunt comes back, because it was
always about Minnesota's offense versus thunders defense and if SGA
can be.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Controlled, yeah, and the thunder, you know or not the thunder.
The te Wolves are a you know, they're they're buoyed
by a lot by their team defense as well. Obviously
with Gobert, you know, and throughout the regular season the
the uh you know, base of that defensive foundation. But
now in a series where Gobert is unplayable, you can

(19:50):
barely you can put him on the court during the
Hartenstein minutes. But outside of that, Gobert can't. He just
can't be on the court unless Hartenstein is there. And
Oklahoma City knows that. That's why they all of a
sudden started playing rotations they hadn't played exactly, so you know,
you know, you remove Minnesota's lynch pin of their defense,

(20:13):
and all of a sudden, you know, they're not the
same defensive team they were throughout the regular season when
the numbers were as good as they were. It's just
a it's a bad and I think you could say
this Vegas agrees. That's why Oklahoma City is such a
strong favorite. It's a bad matchup for any team like
That's like I.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Said, I wish Minnesota would go, but the Thunders are
so good. My betting money was on the Thunder.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
Yeah, because I hate it. I hate it so much.
It's it's such.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
A come down on my come down on my state
I was born. There's still water. It's like it's like
the Austin of Oklahoma.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, but I don't see you living across the Red
River these days. They're open for they're open for migration
if you want to, if you want to head Nord.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
I am been in Texas way too long.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Yeah. The numbers weren't good for last night's game either.
It was we saw a dip in ratings and total
viewers compared to last year. But I hate to say it,
this feels like it might be it might be a
gentleman sweep and and Oklahoma City is getting rest while

(21:23):
Indie and New York potentially goes six or seven.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Are they on right now or yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Oh with the other yeah, the Eastern Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Man, I hope they started seven to thirty, so we
can catch some of.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
That now they actually started before it's halftime. Now, Nick's
sixty nine sixty two over the Pacers as we sit here.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
So what I try to watch over the weekend, man,
is you know, the Texas Rangers and Yankees going on.
But what an ass whip. I can't watch it on
a paid MLB pass because it's blacked out because it's
on that Balle's or whatever the hell it is.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
You know, the great John McCain tried to get rid
of blackouts for twenty years in Congress and could never
could never get enough support. It's one of those things
where it's like, how how are we still doing this
in twenty twenty five? Like what is? And the original
idea behind blackouts was we can't show the games on

(22:21):
local you know, like on a league pass because we
that would take away we believe that that would keep
people from actually going to the game. Yeah, so, like
you know, it made potentially made some sense in the seventies.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Or eighties, and now in the days people people are
going to games for just you know, Instagram flex and
stuff like that. A thousand, like fifty sixty percent of
them and like especially if you're on a date with
the girl, and girl you know, there's only about five
five percent of them they are actually gonna be watching, cheering,
involved in the game. And we need to get rid

(23:01):
of these blackouts because I sat down ready to watch
it yesterday and all of a sudden blackout and I'm
sending there, racing up to the local bar, God forbid,
and I got to watch it up there.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Well, you got to see a you got to see
a gym of a of a start from what's his name?
What ten strikeouts before Rangers ended up striking out a
total of fourteen times last night in the in the
five to two lost it tonight.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
Man, he's been pitching a gym.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Yeah, what's your how's your distraction level? Over there? What's uh?
What's that score?

Speaker 1 (23:37):
I haven't seen any kind I haven't seen any scorings.
So you guys, oh wait, Bellinger, Homer, you guys. But
you guys got another run. So you're up three to
two in the seventh.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Well it's still only the seventh. Give that Rangers bullpen
time to get shit themselves. It's only a matter of
time these days. Yeah, I mentioned the the ratings being
down for the NBA game last night. We talked about
it a little on Monday, the whole the Caitlin Clark,
Angel Reese back and forth during that game. Well, that

(24:10):
Fever Sky game was the season opener for both teams.
It aired on ESBA against each other. What do you
want to It's pretty good marketing and it worked because
two point seven million.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
People, oh man, for a w NBA game.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Look at the ratings numbers from last year. First of all,
the league is this It almost feels like this is
a rebirth of the league. Obviously, no disrespect to the
uh you know four p like the Houston comments like
zero says like, no disrespect to the to the old timers.
You know Lisa Leslie with the.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Sparks, Danica not Danika Patrick, but.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
Which one the Diana Tarassi who just retired. Yeah yeah,
you know.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
You know I met her when she was down here
for the Final four back when I was like eighteen
years old.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
She seems like someone that would want absolutely nothing to
do with like public meet and greet. She just feels
like all she she just eats, sleeps and dreams basketball.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah. We were Me and my buddy were waiters downtown
and he may or may not have hooked up with her.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
I don't I am going to suggest that your buddy
is lying because she.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
Might have still been figuring out her way.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
I know what, I'm pretty sure in college, I'm pretty
sure it was figured out by then, you did have
long hair based on well, there's at least slight.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Hope then off transition, slight hope.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
But no, the you know, the WNBA is clearly in
a rebirth. And looking at the numbers that Caitlyn Clark draws, uh,
not only in viewership. I think she had last night
she had twenty five points, ten assists.

Speaker 1 (25:55):
Yeah, and she.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
Now has the WNBA record for most games ever with
twenty five or more points and ten or more assists.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
She's getting the tiger treatment.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
And she's like three games into her second season.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Yeah, she's getting the Tiger treatment where everybody is hating
that she is the brand she is w NBA, but
they should be thankful because all their page exactly I think,
just went up because of that one person.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
You know, that's the the interest. You know, like Asia
Wilson with Las Vegas, the reigning league MVP. Yes, she's
got arguably the best player, you know, she's got her
own signature shoe now that's sold out in like two
and a half minutes or something.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Anads.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
You know, there are a few other players in the
league that actually would have an argument to say I'm
as you know, I'm as good of a player, or
I'm better than Caitlyn Clark. But all of that being
said about Asia Wilson, she she's not drawing the kind
of viewership numbers on TV as a Caitlyn Clark game is,

(27:06):
and that's.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
Where it will take on it. Why do you think
she's not?

Speaker 2 (27:11):
I mean, I think a lot of it is the
style of play of Caitlin. It's the deep threes, it's
the logo, it's Steph Curry. And then also there's the
obvious answer, she's a white girl from Iowa. Like it's
it's pretty much it is. It is what it is.
But I think the same can be said. The most

(27:32):
marketable basketball player of our childhood was Michael Jordan. So also,
if you're just a badass, it doesn't matter what skin
color you are. But oh sure, and again, those are
the same people now that are watching Fever and Sky
on a Sunday afternoon on ESPN. Women that they that

(27:54):
they wouldn't have otherwise elsewhere in what I watched before
we get to the main segment, maybe even a little
on time tonight. Have either of y'all watched the Bob
Dylan movie. Did y'all see it?

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Did? I did watch that. It was enjoyable. I thought
it was gonna be more of a longer time period,
but it was like a condensed time period. When he
started and then right when he got started to get
real famous, they ended.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
And right the big turning point was when he went
electric at the Pop festival.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Yeah, he was like, he went against the folks. He
was no longer a folks.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Yeah, I as a as someone who listens to quite
a bit of Bob Dylan, and someone who once forced
the roommate to listen to so much Bob Dylan on
a road trip that finally she told me verbatim, this
is great, but can you just play something I know

(28:52):
that was that got hit with that line man. Yeah, okay.
I thought Chalomy did a great job of singing and
playing Bob Dylan. I thought the movie was pretty bad.
I thought the movie it had a bad pacing. It
was very like we're skipping over a lot of things
were relying on you to have some understanding of what

(29:16):
was actually happening.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
There was like a folk hero, Like I didn't know
he was a folk hero in that genre before that,
Like in No him going electric was such a big, big, big,
big deal, and I know that's what they were pushing.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
And they didn't really tell a didn't do a good
job of telling the story of what why you know,
Woody Guthrie in the hospital or Pete Seeger. It just
felt very It felt very produced to give Shalome the
platform to sing like Bob Dylan, and the rest of
the movie was just an afterthought. It was like, Okay, yeah,

(29:55):
here's some here's some dialogue until we get to our
next song, yeah, or until you know does something else.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
So, I mean, he did the SNL where he's saying
he was crazy. That was a great original, Like it
wasn't like his most popular Now he cuts it seems.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
I hate I hate it when this happens, when we
start to feel like a celebrity actually might just be
a cool dude. Yeah, I'm kind of starting to feel
that about I go back to Kardashian, Yeah, that part
I could do without that. Worries man, I get it. Yeah,
I still don't the go back to college game college

(30:32):
football when he don't.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
You don't understand about just hiding, you know, when.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
You don't do how many? How many have ever been
able to do that with a Kardashian. There's something, there's
some kind of magnetic or magnetic force that doesn't allow
for that to be an option.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Am I willing to go to rehab and have a
drug a drug problem? To hit it with a Kardashian
depends on the Kardashian.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
The answer to that is no, for any, for any and.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
All, UH change his life around. He's got a whole
bunch of rehab centers.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
He was. He was back when the Vegas Knights were
still in the playoffs. He did the like ring the
bell before the game, but one of the yeah, one
of the the old horns, but the overall Bob Dylan
movie Charalama. Oh, going back to college football season last
year when he was on game day and he's spitting
facts and sabans, even like, oh man, this kid actually

(31:32):
knows ball, Like I uh.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Was so quick to want to shoot on of.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
Course he was. I'm starting I'm starting to feel like
uh And now of course him at the Knicks games
court side. Uh, I'm starting to feel like shallow may
might be crossing that threshold of I mean, hell, even
the Dune movies are cool, Like it's like they're great.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Yeah, Like it's I'm gonna, I'm gonna, you know, I'm
gonna peel back the curtain. You know. After I got
on you about the Wheel of Time, that fourteen book
series that's now being in the show on Amazon Prime,
I decided to start reading the Dune books. The great
then you never read them before, not the original. I
haven't read any of them, but I started chronologically, so

(32:17):
right now, like Dune started, like the whole Dune saga
started with the Thinking Machines. The ai AI took over
and they dominated the planet and the humans were slay
enslaved by the Thinking Machines and these Titans with the
their brains and they put them in Cimex and stuff

(32:38):
like that. Yeah, I'm about two books in and there's
about fourteen of those. So yeah, you're you're I'm locked
in for another three years.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
You're gonna lose yourself in those You've got You've got
many hours ahead.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
Many months, Remember, like I said, I'm like George Constanza, man,
that voice just puts me to sleep in there in
my head, and I'm just like, okay, one chapter at
a time. I read like three pages at a time
and then I put it down. Then I go reading
three pages and I don't.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
I can't do that with a book. I'm like, if
I am, I will forget. What the hell I even
read the last three But I do.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
It like three or four times a day, three or
four times, so it's like three or four times a day.
I'm killing like a chapter or two. But it's I
got to do it in slow or slow you know,
periods of time. What you looking up on there.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
I'm saying up for our next one. Here. I had
to allow production behind the scenes to be behind the scenes.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
What's happening?

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Something else in the down in the neighborhood started last weekend.
They are it's graduation season, so there is it's all
every day we're having a matinee showing and an evening graduation.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Oh my god, and it they're all them, and they're
all the Alamo Dome, the SBC Center.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Yeah, all at the Alamo Dome. And it reminded of
first of all, as a resident of the area down there.
The way the city handles these events now is so
ridiculous because they it and it's it comes down to
one thing greed they want. They are They've shut down
the entire neighborhood. They have full roads blocked off. I

(34:21):
can't even I have to drive basically two miles in
to the neighborhood to then come back to my house.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Because detour just to get to your street.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
Yeah, and and it's not consistent. So like one day ages,
they can't. They can't do anything the same way twice.
It's the city is so incompetent when it comes to
these kinds of things. But outside of me being pissed
off about the oiler scoring a third goal, outside of
that and me being pissed off about the way they're

(34:55):
shutting I figured now the way they're shutting the neighborhood down.
The other thing people are pissed about is the parking,
which is where the greed comes in, because what the
city is doing is they're shutting down our whole my
neighbor I'm my neighborhood, neighborhood I live in because they

(35:15):
don't want people parking in people's driveways or they want
to get every single penny they can at the expense.
First of all, they make you know, I don't everyone
knows the East Sides. It's it's changing, unfortunately, but it's
traditionally a lower Yeah, it's traditionally you know, some of

(35:37):
the lower income citizens of our city. So you know,
God forbid they make eighty bucks on parking for an
event that the city could have gotten. And secondly, you're
taking money out of their pockets. And then you're also
making their life hell by blocking off the whole neighborhood

(35:58):
and basically say park a my away and walk in
like you're going to like base camp at Everest.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
So on that maternity leave you you got my vote?
Yeah exactly what if you went and just like knocked
the like can do you think they have enough manpower
to let me tell you just knock down.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
One of the let me tell you what I do.
So a couple of weeks ago, this was a couple
of months ago. Back it was back during a football season,
and there was a police officer out next to a
barricade on my street and so I just drove right
to the barricade as if like I was going to

(36:35):
ask him to move it right and he's waving me,
waving me. I rolled down my window. I go, dude,
that's my house right there, Like I pointed, it was
literally like three houses down from where the barricade is.
And at that point he was like, well, you have
to go. I was like, no, no, no, no, dude, just
move this for five seconds. I will go through. I

(36:56):
will park at my house, I will walk inside. You
will continue to make an easy hourly salary for doing
absolutely jack ship except harassing the residents of the neighborhood.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
I hope this goes good.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
So at that point, at that point I told him,
like there was hesitation. I was like, I'm not moving, dude, Like.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
You were willing to go to magistrate?

Speaker 2 (37:22):
What what? What's what's the ticket gonna be for?

Speaker 1 (37:24):
And it's like not not listening to an officer obstructing justice. Yeah,
you put in jail.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Trust you're not getting jail. You're not getting arrested for magistrate.
You're not getting arrested for that long story short After,
some louder decibel sentences were yelled back and forth at
each other. Uh, the barricade got moved and I got
into my house. So now now the thing that because

(37:58):
of all of.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
This, did you say my dad was a judge?

Speaker 2 (38:01):
No? No, and that was my grandpa, your grandpa, And
I didn't tell it though.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
No though, So.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
During these graduations, the city is charging these people are
coming to watch the graduation of their grandkids, son, daughter,
whatever it is. They're charging twenty five dollars for parking
at a graduation.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
And I went to a graduate. I went to my
wife's graduation in uh it was at SBC, and like,
you know, you got twenty people for some one person. Sometimes.
You know, this is a very like the Hispanic culture
and the Latin America. Man, they like to roll deep.
You know, it ain't no secret, dude. They're gonna bring

(38:46):
the tstos, nephew's nieces.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
Every everybody's coming.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
Everybody's coming.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Yeah, And twenty five dollars for a graduation is ridiculous.
I think they charged thirty for the Brahmas games. Look,
they're struggling to get three thousand people in that building
for a Brahmas game. Maybe offer free parking if you
actually want to see that thing succeed in the slightest bit.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
Seems like that's pretty reasonable.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
But the biggest kick to the taint is two weeks
ago when or last week when post Malone and Jelly
Roll were there. Did y'all see the number on take
a guess. What do you think they were charging for parking?
It's twenty five for a UTSA graduation. What are they
charging for? I think Jerry charges like one twenty for

(39:31):
a Cowboys game parking. Yes, also in a city that
is the biggest city in America that doesn't have public transportation, Arlington, Texas,
because Jerry Jones has specifically lobbied against the city having
any kind of public transfer one one. I think that's
what it did.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
It might be more now, So I'm gonna go with
the sixty bucks on.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
The nose, sixty dollars for the Alamodome parkings lose, I
would lose my stuff.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
I would. I've just been like, yo, everybody back up.
I was like, Nope, on GP, I'm not parking here, Nope,
I'm parking down the street and I'm ubering and he's
dropping me off at the front. Seeing that, I'd rather
get to get the uber guy money.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
And sure, yeah, because at least he's a gig employee.
He's working on so it gave me the idea of,
you know, we have a lot of it's a tourist city.
We have a lot of tourist attractions in our city,
some historical by nature like the Alamo, some sports like
the Alamo Dome, some like six Flags whatever. I thought

(40:34):
it would be fun because one of my favorite things
to do is read negative comment like like do you
remember back in the early days of websites, Like when
you know, when a news site first got a website
and it still had the section you know, before social media,
it had the section for comments down at the bottom.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Before they took the thumbs down to it.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
I would spend hours reading the stupid stuff that people
would say in there. So I thought it would be
fun when we have any kind of local tourist site
in the news, let's read some one star Google reviews.
Oh fri and so this will be the Alamodome. This

(41:17):
was Cheryl said a week ago. One star parking with
sixty dollars, popcorn, two sodas, and Nacho's forty dollars. The
food is still and cheese is crusted over a barfing emoji.
They had over forty thousand people entering five doors. That's ridiculous.
With lines standing hours in the sun. Once we entered,

(41:41):
people were sitting on the floor with heat exhaustion. The
entertainment was great, the venue zero.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
Wow, man, how are you gonna have five doors? Man? Like?
Is it just because it's supposedly like that's not even
a wrap show. No, that's a country show man, Like, like,
what do you have? Pat people down? You know?

Speaker 2 (42:01):
Well they have all kinds. They have the worst. Uh
well they also have like the clear bag policy. Like
even every once a year, every football season, when we
go to a UTSA game, Steph will forget about the
clear bag policy and luckily we just walk back to
the house. Yeah, and walk right back over. But there's

(42:23):
so many people that are just throwing their stuff away
because they forget about. It's all all performative. It's all performed.
I went just to make us feel safer. It doesn't
actually change a damn thing.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
I went to Candlestick and I snuck a full bottle
of Crown and just straight crotched it. And you know,
I'm walking like baby Billy a bow legg and stuff
and but like yop got right through it because this
is glass and plastic, and I pull that thing out
when we sit down and guess who was excited? Everybody.

(42:56):
I was like, we all going to get a treat today.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
You know, here's Brandon with another one star robbery exclamation.
Sixty dollars parking, eighteen dollars beers with only three choices.
This venue is living in the nineties with twenty twenty
five prices, terrible food and drink selections compared to any
other big or small venue between Essay and Austin. Really

(43:22):
nothing good to say.

Speaker 1 (43:23):
Wait, eighteen dollars beers. I haven't been to a Spurs
game in probably about four years five well pre Covid
most likely was my last Spurs game. Those beers weren't
They were like eight bucks? So do they up charge that?

Speaker 2 (43:40):
Oh? Well, in the Alomodome. The Alomo Domes again run
by the city, like we're just robbing, We're just robbing
ourselves to fuel the wasteful deeds of the city. Like
you're paying eighteen dollars for a beer at the Alamodome,
so the city can't finish a single construction project on

(44:00):
time or on budget. It's all you're just the sixty
dollars for parking. That's because they had to pay three
quarters of a million dollars to get the city ready
for the Final four and then rip all that crap
up because they weren't. They didn't finish the project.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
Jinkos are back in because I almost sneaked like eight
bottles in.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
It's not a bad idea. Let's see if we can
close out with one more. Most of these came in
from from the last week. From the post concert one star.
JJ the football fan says, I hate everything about the Alamodome. Well,
tell us how you really feel, JJ, The parking, the parking,
the parking. Feel sorry for the people who went to

(44:43):
the post Malone concert who got ripped got ripped off
because of the parking. The city should pay them back. JJ.
I completely agree. But unfortunately, you know if this whole
project marvel, you know, is this.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
No?

Speaker 2 (44:59):
This this is this is just straight back into the city.
I mean, someone much smarter than me could probably tell
me or tell us exactly what part of the budget
it goes to, and would probably say it doesn't have
anything to do with the other spending the city does.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
But I don't see how hard it is to allow
a itemized report of where the money went, Like we
calculate all the money that was made at this Post
Bloon Jelly Roll concert and itemize it. It's got to
be three pages at least. That's it.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Yeah, and concerts are so weird too because of the way,
you know, like the venue has a split with the
artist for concession or for asion merch, you know, all
of the all of the agreements they have. But I'm
pretty sure the tour doesn't get any of the parking money.

Speaker 1 (45:50):
No, No, the merch comes from there. Like I have
a buddy of mine that has a merch company that
he does all the monster truck rallies, So that's a
completely independent business. They have to buy the license to
actually go sell the merch there. Yeah, and that's basically
what these bands do because they make a lot of
money on their own merch. Is they sit there and

(46:12):
buy the license to sell their own merch on the
you know, inside on the walkways.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
Yeah. Well, I'm sorry Post Malone. I bought a bootleg
shirt from Daryl at the end of my street the
other night the roommate. The roommate is like double XL
shirts to use for you know, workout shirts. So anytime
there's a big concert we go buy one. I'm pretty
good buds with Daryl. Now he always he always hooks

(46:38):
it up. But we'll do that off and on anytime
it pops up, because yeah, I love I love the
one star reviews. The person out there that takes enough
time out of their day to actually write a one
star review for something that we all know, like we
all know it's.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
A three times in my life I think where it's
like something just so mad And I'm like, you're catching
it on the internet man, you know, because as you know,
a small business owner and whatnot, you live and die
by those stars. Man. You can you literally your business
if you go under four stars. Oh, it's like a

(47:18):
y it's a death since for like Yelp and Google
and all that kind of stuff that knocks you out
of a bunch of the algorithms. Yeah. So, and of
course you're like, you get the Yelp calls all the time,
and hey, if you buy yo, we can guarantee you
that we can start plugging this and this. And I'm like,
so you're gonna take away all the fake one star
comments because like.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
So you know what, the roommate and I spend up.
We still do a little pr on the side for
a couple of our friends restaurants. A large amount of
the time that we you know, flag as work is
just submitting request to remove one star reviews.

Speaker 1 (47:55):
I mean I used to spend that. Like the first
business we had man with my buddy Brandon Man, we
did a mobile car detail, and like in the very beginning,
it was just friends and family, like we knew every
person that we sat there and uh did business with.
And we got two one star reviews from random people

(48:17):
that we didn't know. And I'm like, I'm sorry, sir.
We would love to come out and show you what
we can do, but unfortunately we're kind of in a
soft opening style phase and we haven't done your we
haven't done any vehicles except for friends and family, so
you might be thinking of a different business. Yeah, And
probably was another you know, competitors, like, well, you need

(48:41):
to learn to take constructive criticism blah blah blah. And
I was like, I'm all for constructive criticism. I'm all
for doing coming back and doing the job correctly. But
once again, like I said.

Speaker 2 (48:51):
They've only watched five far, there's no way we've far.

Speaker 1 (48:56):
I was like, you're not it. I was like, unless
I'm I don't have to go kick my cousin's ass.

Speaker 2 (49:02):
You ain't in Yeah, exactly the surprisingly kind of in
a similar vein a lot of the reviews will get
for like one of the restaurants we still do work for,
it'll be like, uh, went for lunch Sunday after church?
They were closed one star and it's like we're closed.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
They're closed Sundays Like Mom and Pop shots like what
are you doing that's worth moving away? It was like
a one hour way to write at twelve thirty after
church and you're like, oh, at Magnolia Pancake House.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
Yeah, exactly right after church, when the whole Sunday, every
the whole queue was showing up.

Speaker 1 (49:40):
I feel for them. They moved right across the street
from old CBC, the old Mega church Man. That place
is man. I used to work at gyms, and Gym's
was the holy grail for after church to go each
your breakfast, and it was just it was chaos back
in the back and I was a dishwasher, line cook.
I was like every part and it was just that

(50:02):
moving waiting at.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
Its Yeah, get out of here.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
I'm all spraying people with the hose and they start
yelling at me at the dish washing station. I'm like,
get out of here.

Speaker 2 (50:13):
I feel like I feel like every time I drive
past the gyms these days, they would kill for that,
those the glory days.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Like you're describing the Hasselhoff of the Hasslockers.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Yeah, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (50:26):
I don't think they're nearly still good food Man Chicken,
the Steak Breakfast, Texas omelet to diner.

Speaker 2 (50:33):
It's good. There's there's better dwich in town. What did
you think? Is that, like the healthy option? Is that
what you're saying? Sandwich with what mayo? What else? Maybe
it's turkey, you know, Yeah, I always go my hate mayo.

Speaker 1 (50:52):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
Before we go on to the main segment, real quick here,
I want to quickly hit on I think we're going
to talk about uh kid more here in the near future.
There's a local kid named Julian Torres, a Lanier grad
who has found one of the greatest legal loopholes.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
So I read this article yesterday and immediately sent it
to the guys, and thankfully, luckily all of y'all were
as quick to jump on it as I was.

Speaker 1 (51:24):
Because this feels.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
Potentially, this feels like it would be a great first
trip out into the wild to get some get some footage.

Speaker 1 (51:33):
So as soon as you sent that to me, I
was like, this is amazing. Anytime you get a little
loophole in the city before they can catch it, I'm like, Man,
don't let the old heads, don't let the ksat news
catch onto this, because they're just gonna ruin it. And
so I've been reaching out to him.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
Yeah, I think we're again like let's not get ahead
of ourselves, but I think we're working on potentially getting
out there to meet these kids, but meet these loopholes.
So it's great because it's a state loophole. And I
read this article on my essay, but what it is, Uh.
He runs a an organization called Fahida Promotions, which first

(52:15):
of all is one of the it's just a great Yeah,
it's a great business man. But he hosts on the
on the south side of town. Here, he hosts Fahida
fight Nights, where it's exactly what it sounds like. It
is a backyard fight.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Club, little barbecue, fijidas and some we got we got
some fajitas, we got the boys, we got some testosterone
and animosity, we got some grudges to Bury and because
the fights are agreed upon beforehand, it's not technically assault
and it's.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
Not a it's not a full promotion, like it's not
sanctioned exactly. So all it is is they do three
minute rounds and they have two guys that agree to
fight each other.

Speaker 1 (53:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
I think they keep it within like fifteen pounds different
between the two fighters.

Speaker 1 (53:12):
But you just don't get to see someone like the
early UFCS just destroy.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
And it's boxing. It's boxing, so it's uh no, no, yeah, no,
all you know gloves like it's it's legit official. I
was watching some of their stuff on Instagram. Check them out.
Like I said, it's Faheta Promotions on Instagram. But they
started it in late twenty twenty three and it started
because two of his friends were gonna fight, and so

(53:39):
he said, all right, instead of, you know, instead of
doing this in the street or instead of doing it
at school and getting in trouble or anything like that,
let's let's do it the old fashioned way like we
like when we were growing up, where it was instead
of you know, nobody jumps in, fight it out, get
it over with and move on.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
When he's on the ground, you let him get back up,
you know, no, no kicking.

Speaker 2 (54:01):
Them while on the Yeah, and they you know, they
have you know, pseudo officials that end up.

Speaker 1 (54:07):
Since you're not sanctioned, you don't have to be a professional, right.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
And the legal loophole. This is another interesting part of
it because in nineteen seventy four, the Texas legislature passed
a law that is referred to as the Mutual Combat Law,
so meaning it allows two individuals to engage in Mortal

(54:32):
Kombat mutual combat. It uh, it allows two dudes to
engage in a fight in a physical altercation if both
consent to the fight.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
Now does this say dudes? Like not dudes, but does.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
It say individuals? Is the title?

Speaker 1 (54:51):
So it opens it up. Even though you don't, like
I was about saying, Joe feminists, I'll watch that every day.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
Yeah, we're not. We're not taking footage of that. But
the interesting, the more interesting thing to me is you
can't get much more separate on the political spectrum than
the state of Texas and the state of Washington. We're
talking about liberal Pacific Northwest. Those are the only two

(55:19):
states that have a law like this.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
I can see Texas, man, because it's like that makes
tread on me. You know, we want to sit down
and throw fist at each other to settle an argument,
don't you know that's my that's my guy given right,
which I'm all for it, you know what I'm saying.
But like you know, and then you just selfie heat
of plays. That's how you make your money. I don't
know if he does he I don't know if he

(55:43):
charges an entry fee that might have that might negate that.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
Yeah. Again, I think there's some. I think there's some
you know, they have to do certain things stops, I mean,
but I think he's what only twenty one.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
I mean only twenty one mart individual man? He found
some I told him. I was like, you found some gold, brother.
I was like, good job. I was like, this is
this is I can see this thing going big.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
Yeah, and I miss I said he was a linear
grad one of the fighters that fights frequently as a
Lanear grad, but he's actually a Texan Texas Kan Academy's grad.
So nice shout out to young mister Torres. And hopefully
we can get out there soon because I want to
do yeah, I want to run some footage from what
they're doing because it sounds awesome. But moving into our

(56:32):
main segment tonight, We've had it's a weird Wednesday where
all of a sudden, you know, half a dozen NFL
headlines kind of trickled out, and one of them a
pretty massive one here within the last hour, hour and
a half. So I figured we just kind of do
it's been a month since the NFL draft. Figured we
just talk a little football. We haven't talked as much

(56:54):
with all the NBA and NHL playoffs going on, we
haven't talked a lot of football, and of course, come
to fall, it's gonna be it's dominant.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
It's not ball and baseball playoffs.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
But let's sprinkle in a little here because I mentioned
the headlines. Do you want to where do you want
to start? Do you want to start with flag football
at the Olympics or the tush push?

Speaker 1 (57:18):
Well, the tush push. Let's start with tushupus because that
seems pretty simple. You can't, Yes, Jalen Hurts can squat
seven hundred pounds. That's the main reason why he's so
successful on it. We saw that once Jason Kelsey left,
who was obviously one of the greatest sinners in the game.
You know, it's mainly Jalen And yes, it's those people

(57:42):
running in the back and pushing them. But as they
kind of shown, there's one hundred plays where you see
alignment carrying a receiver or running back who's about to
fall down an extra three yards? Which are we getting
to gate all that because that comes in the realm
of it, So it's kind.

Speaker 2 (58:00):
Of there's obviously there's obvious differences then, between the scenario
you described and the rugby play that the Eagles line
up and called the tush push.

Speaker 1 (58:09):
Yeah, but like what would be the verbiage? You can't
you can't push someone from behind within two seconds? Like
how do you how do you like legally or legality?

Speaker 2 (58:24):
How do you covers it?

Speaker 1 (58:27):
And its one team and it's not like other teams
can't master this play man, you know who was like not?
Who was like it wasn't a tush push, but what
was a master at getting one yard?

Speaker 2 (58:41):
Tom Brady on the quarterback sneak go Well, okay, and
let me ask you this, every if every other team
can master it, why do we want every team to
master a rugby play that that's it's not it's not
a football play, it's rugby. It's a different sport. Why
so again the argument would be, well, everyone can do it,
and I would argue back, and I think that's a

(59:03):
bad thing for the sport. I think that, and it
of course the biootball.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
Guy derived from rugby.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
Sure, but it also I mean it's also now American
football and not rugby.

Speaker 1 (59:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:16):
Football also used to not allow a forward pass.

Speaker 1 (59:19):
So I see they so they can allow it. Are
they still going to talk about it? But they modify?
They voted on it today. They needed it's the owners
meetings taking place right now. In fact, Jeffrey Lorie, the
Eagles owner philipbustered for over an hour during the meeting
today to convince the other owners not to ban it.

Speaker 2 (59:43):
They needed an hour. That's a lot for that old man, the.

Speaker 1 (59:48):
Old buddy from the thing went twenty four hours.

Speaker 2 (59:50):
Yeah, old Devin Booker, as you always said, Cory Booker,
Cory Booker. No, they needed twenty four votes from the
other owners and it ended up a twenty two to
ten vote. Out of the thirty two owners, ten sided
with the Eagles to not get rid of it. So
the Eagles were one of those, and then nine other

(01:00:11):
teams were swayed by Lori's filibusters. So the touch push
is still legal for another year, but it feels like,
I mean, they're they're they're ninety nine percent successful on
that play, and at some point, if you can't get
the votes to ban it, I think you just have

(01:00:33):
to chalk it up and say, well, Okay, they're gonna
they're just gonna get that guard every time.

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
They're going to injure one of their players, Like, somebody's
gonna get injured, and that's what it's gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
Take for that play to be to have any kind
of change.

Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
What I'm saying, all of a sudden, the guard's going
to go down and all like an all pro guard
or a QB is gonna twist an ankle, or a linebacker,
a big name linebacker is gonna fly over the top
or they you know.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
They can do Like what was the I mean, the
worst case scenario would be something happens to hurt.

Speaker 1 (01:01:04):
Well, yeah, what was it? I think it was the
Jets who because the guy just kept flying over the top.

Speaker 2 (01:01:09):
Oh, when they finally told him, like doing that, we're
just gonna give him the touchdown.

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
Yeah, it was like it's like, if if you want
to do that. That's how you get that play to stop.
So these twenty two teams want to sway the other teams,
the other ten teams start doing that every time. Just
be like, I'm gonna extend this game fifteen times.

Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
Yeah, you're gonna have I'm gonna jump over.

Speaker 1 (01:01:32):
The top until they tell me I can't do it
no more.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
You're gonna have to make it an issue. Which again,
at that point, I would say, you know what we
did to stop guys from jumping over consecutively like that
at the goal. We made a rule against it, exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:01:45):
So again, so if you got those.

Speaker 2 (01:01:49):
Twenty two owners, all y'all gotta do is convince two
more to join you for next season.

Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
Get your third stringer, get your third string cornerback or
four string safety to sit there and jump over and
put a helmet in like Jalen hurts lower back four
times again, four times on every toush push. I guarantee
you he's going to be like, I'm tired of this. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
The problem is the Eagles are Sirianni rather is not
tired of that damn near perfect success rate. So when
it comes to calling the tush push.

Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
But when you what if it takes out Jalen.

Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
Again, I think that would be really the you know,
the biggest factor in getting it changed would be a jailing.

Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
The linemen have already spoken out saying that, like, dude,
that is a very painful play. We get injured on
that play a lot. He's like, it's not like a
silly little play where oh they just push us and
it doesn't hurt. No, we're it's a full speed car impact,
you know, just immediately.

Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
Yeah, And I again, I know it sounds you know,
two NFC rivals of the Eagles. Obviously Cowboys closer rival,
but San Francisco is gonna have to go through Philly
at this point. So hearing the two of us talk
about the Eagles not shouldn't be allowed to do this,
I can understand why there would be a assumption of

(01:03:17):
some bias against the Eagles. But I think, to a man,
everyone that has watched football their entire life, when you
watch that play, I think we can most of us,
majority of us can agree that's not a football play. Yeah,
And that's the thing. I think that's the biggest argument

(01:03:37):
against it. Of It's just it's just not a part
of the sport. We're trying to play.

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
They should just they can modify it, Like you can't
push push him on the back when he's doing a
QB sneak.

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
Right, yeah, just run a QB sneak like we've done forever,
like you said, like Brady was, yeah, and it's like
and it's all about And it wasn't because he could squat.

Speaker 1 (01:04:03):
No, it was all in his direction. Although all the
cadence and all that, then he just saw his little
crease and he had a good line. That's what it was.
So they should I see him modifying. I see these
that was too close of a vote for this to
last much. Line.

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
I mean, it's not going anywhere. I mean it's only
gonna be yeah this season, it's it's it's allowed. But
I think we're gonna have this same mark the calendar,
you know, middle of May twenty twenty six. I think
we'll be having the same conversation and we'll just see
if they have the votes. The other headline though, something
that did get approved by the owners, we're gonna have

(01:04:44):
flag football at the twenty twenty eight LA Olympics. And
what First of all, I wouldn't have a whole lot
of interest in watching that event, if it was full
of guys from Sunday rec leagues that I that I
have never heard of.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
Poor poor buddies. I mean, start learning to coach.

Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Well, it's I think it's gonna be interesting. So the
way the rules are each NFL.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Team, Jefferson's getting your justin, Jefferson's getting your spot.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
Or is he Just because you're a great NFL wide
receiver doesn't automatically mean you're going to be a great
flag football play?

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
What makes so so? So let's start that argument, what
makes you.

Speaker 2 (01:05:31):
Athleticism his twitch? But there's still a very different art.

Speaker 1 (01:05:37):
You gotta go then and focus on grabbing a flag.
I think they're lead enough to interpret that skill in there.

Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
I will be interested to see if some of these
NFL guys don't get picked over plus because they're.

Speaker 1 (01:05:54):
Gonna have trying to straight burn them with Tyreek Hillgan
to straight burns.

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
But there are obviously a few exceptions, like Turpin or
Tyreek Hill, of guys that are just speed merchant speed
demons that are going to be faster than any of
the worthy. But I also think right now, if you
took let's say it was we're playing seven on seven
and you took the national champion men's seven on seven team,

(01:06:22):
and you took you got to pick these guys have
been playing together for multiple years, and then you just
picked seven random NFL players with no practice and you said,
but you said no practice, and you put them on
the field. I think the seven on seven guys dominate
the NFL players.

Speaker 1 (01:06:41):
I don't think it's instant.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
I don't think I think it's instantly because it's not
the same sport. I think if you give them like,
they're going to have a year to prepare, so that's
not gonna be the scenario. But I'm just not quick.
I'm not rushing to say all there's gonna be an
NFL guy that doesn't get picked because they pick someone
who is actually yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:07:01):
Like there there is quality out there where. It's just
like he just can't tackle, he can't block, you know
what I'm saying. That's the reason why he he's on
like the practice squad and he's like, Hey, I'm just
making more money over here on flag football and it's
less beat up on my body and it's a guaranteed
check man.

Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
A lot of those flag football guys have knee scoped
every year like there, it's there's a lot of injuries
and some of them like.

Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
You give them a week, you give that QB, you
give a Joe Burrow a week. With some elite receivers.

Speaker 2 (01:07:32):
Well, the quarterback is the exception. I mean, that's the obvious.

Speaker 1 (01:07:35):
But like you telling me that Joe Burrow would rather
take one of these flag football people than justin Jefferson,
Jamar Chase, you know, DeVante Adams, where they all know
the back's shoulder throw. They all know these like the
route tree, you know, and then they got the elite
route running, the elite hands, they got the elite natural

(01:08:00):
god given abilities of the length of their arms, the
length of their legs, the longer strides and speed. The
pros beat them every time.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
I think you're quick to I think you're quick quick
because it's assumed. No, I don't think it's not as
obvious as it seems on the surface, because they're still
like even even like they play flag football in the
Pro Bowl now, so it's like, I mean, obviously they're
familiar with how to play flag football. It's not, but
it's but they're not doing that every day like these

(01:08:33):
guys who.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
Have a training camp's flag football.

Speaker 2 (01:08:37):
But it's not they're not grabbing flags.

Speaker 1 (01:08:40):
You're not.

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
It's not. It's it's actually.

Speaker 1 (01:08:42):
That's the only thing they have to learn is to
look down and grab a flag.

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
It's half speed football, and that's the defense. Yeah, I again,
that's the defense each NFL.

Speaker 1 (01:08:53):
You're telling me a receiver can't push the be button
on them, do a little spinny spin on them.

Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
I'm I'm telling you they do that in practice. I'm
telling you an NFL receiver is the quarterback and receiver
are the two positions that are going to have the
most NFL talent.

Speaker 1 (01:09:08):
That's the offense, not all of it. Though. Well you're
still who else is on there?

Speaker 2 (01:09:13):
Okay, well let me do you think do you think
Micah is going to be the a pass rusher on
the flag football team? It's gonna I mean, who's it
gonna be. It's gonna be some little five foot nine
maaster exactly, someone who plays football. But that's what I'm
that's why you're getting hung up on the receiver when

(01:09:34):
I'm talking about the whole flag football team. There's going
to be an NFL player that gets left off this
roster because some mid level marketer from Omaha is really
fucking good at flag football.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
Yeah, but you're gonna have some Travis Hunters on there,
no question, no question, will play both ways because they
you know.

Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
He might be the best. He might be the best
flag football player you could pick for this team. So
each NFL team can have up to one player for
each of their country. So like if you know, if
like the Cowboys had that aler Cone guy, the Mexican
dude a couple of years ago, he could play for
Mexico and then another Cowboy could play for the US.

(01:10:16):
But each NFL team only gets one American player.

Speaker 1 (01:10:19):
So I wonder if they're gonna do like a soccer
where they like they're gonna be tryouts and they nationalize
them like, oh oh, I have Norwegian in my blood
one sixteenth of it.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
The best example of that lately is the FC Dallas
goalkeeper is a dude named Martin Martin pass p a
E S. I think he's Dutch heritage originally, but now
all of a sudden, the Dutch leads, no, he's no.
He so he grew up in the Netherlands and now
he is playing for the Singapore or Filipino national team

(01:10:57):
because he has like ards a city. He has a
grandfather that country.

Speaker 1 (01:11:04):
Yeah yeah, yeah, but over here, buddy.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
I'm now interested in flag football at the Olympics. That's
the overarching thing.

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
Because you gotta watch, you gotta watch it. Wi yeah,
I will now uh And it's going to start and
we in America is gonna get the first flag football.

Speaker 2 (01:11:26):
God wouldn't it be hilari America. I was, I was looking.
I was looking up. Well, it's in l A. It'll
be in so far. I was looking up.

Speaker 1 (01:11:35):
That's the hell of the stadium. I've been in there.

Speaker 2 (01:11:37):
Yeah, it looks at Steph's Steph saw Elton John there
for a work trip.

Speaker 1 (01:11:42):
What a flex stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:11:44):
Yeah, yeah, she's got got quite a few. She was
the last twenty four hours. She spent fourteen of them
in Vegas, just a quick tripping back for work. But no,
it definitely it provides, you know, football players are the
least marketable because they're in full helmet pads covered like

(01:12:06):
you don't see the faces of the guys like you
do a basketball player or a baseball player or any
other sport. So it does give you know, some of
the NFL players a massive platform and they watch the
NBA guys win gold in the Olympics, and I'm sure
they would love to have that opportunity.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
Yeah. I mean, that's the thing is they like, that's
the only sport that they can't play for their country, right,
you know, soccer, basketball, hockey.

Speaker 2 (01:12:37):
You know, and granted they won't be playing.

Speaker 1 (01:12:40):
Baseball as the World Baseball.

Speaker 2 (01:12:42):
Chances World Baseball Classic.

Speaker 1 (01:12:44):
Yeah, yeah, there's there's nothing else that football players do,
so yeah, of course they're gonna be hype about it. Man.

Speaker 2 (01:12:49):
Yeah, I mean they're not getting to play their actual sport.
They're playing a different one called flag football. But it's
cool now that they will get into. You must be
distracted by the Yankee game because that didn't get a
rise out of it. Did you see who the hard
Knocks team is going to be?

Speaker 1 (01:13:05):
No? I did not. Who was it?

Speaker 2 (01:13:06):
So the preseason training camp hard Knocks because you know
they do two seasons now, the in season and training
camp training camp one is gonna be the Bills.

Speaker 1 (01:13:16):
Well it's pretty fun, right, the Bill's Mafia. Huh?

Speaker 2 (01:13:19):
And did you fun fact? The Bills are the only
team right now in Vegas that is favored in every
single one of their games, every single game on the schedule.
The Bills are the betting favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:13:35):
I mean, but that's gonna move that but that is crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:13:38):
It's not gonna I don't think it's gonna move. I mean,
it'll move week to week if they start.

Speaker 1 (01:13:43):
Niners are favored in a lot because we got the
easiest schedule and oh crimea River Cowboys, y'all had the
easiest schedules before, like many, many a times. This is
the first time the Niners have gotten the easiest schedule
in my lifetime.

Speaker 2 (01:13:58):
Yeah, Texas, I mean the Cowboys haven't done anything with
their Yeah, I think if I have, what was there,
like fifth or sixth toughest schedule this year or something
like that.

Speaker 1 (01:14:09):
Yeah, just because they because their division is getting so good.

Speaker 2 (01:14:12):
So that's the fun. This is the thing. I'm still
a hard Knocks SAP. I still watch it every year.
I love it. It's not the same as it used
to be.

Speaker 1 (01:14:20):
In season not so much, but I still watch the
preseason ones. Those are always good.

Speaker 2 (01:14:25):
So I am going to be locked in and we'll
have clips for the end season.

Speaker 1 (01:14:31):
NFC East, Oh, they're doing all of them.

Speaker 2 (01:14:35):
They do the division. They do a single division in season,
So we'll get here we go Eagles, Giants Commanders for
the end.

Speaker 1 (01:14:46):
Season Hardee, Jalen and Debo. Yeah, going out.

Speaker 2 (01:14:50):
Man, we get George Pickens by the time in the
season where he's going to be so pissed off at
Dak it's gonna be a train wreck potentially. You still
like George means, oh yeah, get your laps and now
everyone's just upset. The Cowboys actually got a number one,
receiving it a good pig, but play alongside their other number.

Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
History of the Steelers getting rid of problems right before
the the imploding happens. So it's it's good TV.

Speaker 2 (01:15:20):
You know, well, it's certainly gonna be good TV TV,
and that is something to look forward to. The Hard Knocks,
it feels like they don't let them be as mean anymore.
You know, like we used to get to see the
guys actually getting cut. We used to get the you know,
more of the focus on guys that were, you know,
on the cut line.

Speaker 1 (01:15:40):
Oh, I see good Dell like watching over like a
hot getting final, same final.

Speaker 2 (01:15:46):
It's now it's basically you don't have.

Speaker 1 (01:15:48):
Ray Lewis knocking someone's head off in practice.

Speaker 2 (01:15:51):
Yeah, it's basically an over glorified workout montage. At this point,
I still watch it, but it's it's absolutely lower quality
than what it used to be. But at least we
get NFC East at the end season. Another thing from
the owners meeting, Uh, the Lions were trying to push

(01:16:12):
for a change in the playoff bracket because everyone gets
pissed off when a team that wins a crappy division
gets to host a home play the game.

Speaker 1 (01:16:22):
They take repeat like they took it away from the motion.

Speaker 2 (01:16:25):
The Lions withdrew their motion. Yeah, they because they wanted
it to be some form of you know, you reced
by record each round of the playoffs, so whatever teams
have the best record would be the home team. But
I there's a part of me that still divisions have
to matter. And the main reason divisions matter is for

(01:16:46):
TV because what moves the needle. Patriots, Jets in division, Cowboys, Eagles, Cowboys, Commanders, Cowboys, Giants,
There's Philly, New York, Dallas Markets.

Speaker 1 (01:16:57):
It's such a sound.

Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
Yeah, you know, the rivalries.

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
One on each play twice a year to every one
of your divisions. There's four people in divisions, so there's
six of your games, and then they get to pick
like another division and they they play them like back
and forth. It's such a great model. And yes it happens.
It happens like maybe once every other year.

Speaker 2 (01:17:23):
But not enough for it to be to need to
be changed.

Speaker 1 (01:17:26):
But like for the fans, they get to see like
you're like yo, the Cinderella story and they actually get
to be there at their home stadium if they're eight
and nineteen actually pulls off the victory against a.

Speaker 2 (01:17:40):
Thirteen and was the big one was what Seahawks Saints
was way back in the day when the Seahawks had
the losing record, but they got the home game and
the twelfth man out.

Speaker 1 (01:17:52):
They get hot, like the Rams last year they got hot,
they won their first matchup, and like they were horrible
in the beginning because Puka.

Speaker 2 (01:17:59):
Will got yeah, and then as soon as they started
to in incrementally get nobody.

Speaker 1 (01:18:04):
Wanted to play. And that happened to the Niners many times.
It's like the most feared team will not have the
best records sometimes.

Speaker 2 (01:18:11):
Yeah, for sure, especially I mean certainly in the NFL.
I think there's the rating. The divisions matter first and
foremost for the TV numbers because they want to have
those rivalries, those regional rivalries for TV viewership purposes, but
also there has to be some reward for winning your

(01:18:32):
division because playing the same team twice, Yeah, it's always
a more difficult Like, even if it's a bad team,
playing them twice, the odds of you just steamrolling them
two times, even if you're way better than they are.
That the the animosity from playing them a multiple a

(01:18:55):
second time in the same season. I think there has
to be a reward for winning a division where you're
playing the same teams twice.

Speaker 1 (01:19:02):
So here's another angle to it. If we do it
like the NBA does it, where it's all just Eastern
Conference and Western Conference, I think we get a lot
more tanking.

Speaker 2 (01:19:12):
What do you remember, the NBA used to reward division
winners with the top three seeds in each car and
then hockey does it still that way as well.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
But like, but we do a lottery system, so even
if you tank, you're not guaranteed the number one pick,
But if you tank enough and go oh to sixteen Detroit,
you're getting the number one pick, you know what I'm saying.
So the way they have their draft set up, you
cannot reward tanking, and divisions help that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
Yeah, I think the the the NFL still to me,
uh it the less tinkering we do, the better. Just
it's not broken. It's the most watched sport in America.

Speaker 1 (01:19:56):
Let's settle for a little bit. You added, you added
an extra game.

Speaker 2 (01:19:59):
And they're already talking about to eighteen.

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
Yeah, you added an extra postseason.

Speaker 2 (01:20:05):
You're playing in Brazil, Germany, England's let us just a
adjust to this, you know, No, I don't disagree.

Speaker 1 (01:20:14):
Yeah. Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:20:15):
The only other NFL headline I had before we get
to the Lightning round to close out, right before, like
half an hour before we went live on here, news
started to spread that Jim Ursay, the Colts owner, longtime
Colts owner, had passed away at sixty five years old.
And I maybe I missed it, but I didn't realize

(01:20:38):
there was any chance of that happening anytime soon. Like,
I mean, I know he's.

Speaker 1 (01:20:44):
Been I mean he had a stroke. Yeah, I mean,
he's he's a long, he's a known.

Speaker 4 (01:20:49):
He's had some rough years and his demons like a
lot of us, you know, and he with that having
billions of dollars, you know, he could call he could
have been with the freakoffs.

Speaker 2 (01:21:02):
I think his what Jim Mersey likes to party. I
think his was it was prescription pills, wasn't it. I
think it was painkillers and alcohol. But yeah, I mean
bought the Colts in ninety seven, believe it was, or
assumed control of them in ninety seven, and he.

Speaker 1 (01:21:20):
Kind of saw his health decline on that second season
of The Hard Knocks when he would come in and say,
and they were making that playoff run and they lost
their final game. You saw like the stroke happened, and
you saw the health decline. And I don't think he
was taking good care of himself. No, And that's not
for me to say. I don't know that for sure.

Speaker 2 (01:21:40):
You know that without being a member of the you know,
Indianapolis community, it seems like it seems like, for the
most part, he is a beloved just as much for
the stuff he did for the city as he is
for his ownership of the Colts. I mean another thing,

(01:22:00):
he was a he's a huge music guy. Like he's
got I think he's got a bunch of Jimmy Hendrix
and Stevie Ray Vaughn guitar He's got a huge guitar collection.
So yeah, unfortunate news. We got earlier today, bust rest
in peace, Jim Urse on that note, LG. Fire up
the lightning round for me, because we got to get

(01:22:23):
out of here. The Stars scored thirty seconds into the
third period. We have a one goal game again. Game
as we record this, seventeen minutes left in the third,
still down three to two.

Speaker 1 (01:22:37):
And you know we don't have hit me oh walk
off home run to beat the Ranger?

Speaker 2 (01:22:44):
Did that?

Speaker 1 (01:22:45):
Just hap me? He saw me with a little smile
on my face.

Speaker 2 (01:22:50):
Give the bullpen time, Just give that bullpen time. They're
gonna find new They're gonna find new, creative ways to
destroy my hopes that I.

Speaker 1 (01:23:01):
Have, gym man, that that guy is good as third.

Speaker 2 (01:23:06):
Third best e r A among starters in the league.
Rangers as a whole, Number one is Freeze in New York. Well,
I'm saying as a team, Yeah, yeah, you know it
was last night.

Speaker 1 (01:23:18):
It was.

Speaker 2 (01:23:19):
It was a good start and then the bullpen. Yeah,
gave up some late runs, but I mean it was.

Speaker 1 (01:23:25):
Got the cheapest home home run.

Speaker 2 (01:23:27):
Oh look at them all right? The Stars just ti alright,
we got a light around hit me, LG. Because we
got hockey to watch. The the we talked about flag
football at the Olympics. Are either of you two guys
familiar with something called the Enhanced Games? Okay, so Peter Tiel,

And then brock Lessner walks up. He's like someone says
something about birds. No, sir, no, sir, not at all.

that era. Yeah, the spin off with what's his name?

early nineties. Uh. But I don't think Cheers was something
