I really do, Yeah, but I don't. I don't want
to have to deal with There's nothing worse than having

(02:05):
to go and buy a car and get the run
around from the sales guy at the car dealership.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
And you don't have to go to a dealership. You
don't have to do any of that. Now do it all.

Speaker 7 (02:16):
But I do want to hear your story and what
do you think this? Uh, this car salesman does give
me the exact play by point around.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
Because I did over the phone sales.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
It's all a bunch of crap, like he'll he'll do this,
He'll go, all right, so if I can get you
this rate at this percentage, whatever the numbers are, and
he says, and he starts writing it down on a
piece of paper and he says, Okay, look it's gonna
I don't I don't think I can pull this off.
But if I'm able to go back to my manager,
you know, can I just get your signature here to

(02:49):
know that, like you're serious about this rate.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
If I can do it.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
I don't want to make any promises, but if I
can do it, and then it's kind of like the
perceived gift. They're like, oh my god, well he's going
out of his way getting me a great deal. And
you go, yeah, of course, okay, if you just sign here.
So you sign there and you go back to the manager.
The guy probably doesn't even talk to his manager he
goes back, he slams a cup of coffee, He texts
some some girl he met at a at a bar
and happy hour the night before, and then he comes

(03:13):
back over and he goes, all right, so I think
we're good to go. So if you're ready, we'll get
this locked up, we'll take you over to finance and
we'll get everything out of here, get you up and
out of here, and like you know, within an hour,
it's all.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
It's just And they walked through the coffee breakthrough.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
They like look like like blow blow on their fingernails
and point at like the other salespeople like that one
girl that they can't get a hold of, right right,
they probably like I sold that car. You see that
dummy over there, I sold.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
It to him. What you think?

Speaker 5 (03:38):
Yeah, drinks later, Yeah, no, okay, so as you get
in tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, you know, you get to understand.

Speaker 7 (03:45):
That's why, Like I don't buy cars very often, but
what I do, like, I love grinding them down. I
love for every little like I'll sit in there all
day and just ruined any chance they have to making it.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
There's nothing better. Yeah, then getting up and getting ready
to leave.

Speaker 7 (04:04):
Four times four several times of the negotiation and even
to the point where like they called me. I had
one guy, I was thirty minutes away, right, I drove
up and he called Me's like, you know, can I
have you come back and said no chance. I was like,
I told you final offer. You didn't take me seriously.
Now I'm moving on.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Dang.

Speaker 7 (04:25):
Yeah, you feel because because I want that person for
the rest of their life to be like man, if
I just would have agreed to like that price instead
of trying to get a little bit greedy a little
bit more, I'm like, yep, you could.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Have had the sale. Now you don't. Yeah, take that ahole.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
The problem is the problem is when you're driving around
in a car that's coming up on twenty years, I
know I'm going to be having that.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Yeah, you got no leverage.

Speaker 5 (04:54):
They look at you, They're like, you know what to
see what you pulled up lit some buddy?

Speaker 4 (04:59):
Don't tell you guys something better than the parking lot.
We saw that.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Guess we're gonna do you write us check?

Speaker 5 (05:04):
Okay, Yet this is our final offer to you, sir, and.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
You're driving around at a time bomb kidding.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Near does that thing clear?

Speaker 5 (05:19):
Let me take you back here and show you one
of our older models that just isn't as old as yours.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
That's a good point.

Speaker 7 (05:25):
You're actually getting fined for whatever emissions it's it's admitting
it's old.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
Yeah, well you know we should be fined. Oh the
dam New York Knicks's on a gag job. What happened there?
They were on their way to the next round walking.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Around eight seconds somehow.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, that was a bad loss, man that and that
place was ready to celebrate. They were ready to just
I mean, we're done with Philly. This is a big win.
It's a brand new era of Knicks basketball. And they
go out and crap themselves with under him it left
that was awful fun environment though.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
It was a fun environment.

Speaker 5 (06:06):
And you know, I don't I don't think that this
means really too much for Philadelphia and in terms of
what happens next, But I mean it is what it is,
right they they've turned it somewhat into a series and
and and for what it's worth, you know, you got

(06:26):
to think about what that what that means for the
Knicks as they move forward. You know, it's an extra game,
you know, and those extra games start to in theory,
maybe take a toll on you as you go and
you know, into the later rounds. But listen, bruntson was
bruntsing the rest of the gang. They they gotta you know,

(06:48):
they got to do more. They got to do more.
And you know, give credit to the sixers. They they
did what they need to do. MAXI is a beast.
I mean he puts it down and be what you know.
Obviously he's not healthy and he's not you know where
he needs to be.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
But he did give.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
Him sixteen rebounds. Bro, he had a triple double, crushed
it with assists. So I mean he he picked up
the slack the way that he needed to and he
draws the defenses to him because of his size.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
So if I'll say this, if if.

Speaker 5 (07:24):
The Knicks, if the Knicks aren't careful, it could turn
into a series and then it really is bad for him.
But I don't see I don't foresee that taking place.
But hey, you know, you just never know.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
I mean, I'm with you.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
I mean, that's one of those who look back on
you go, we were up six with twenty eight seconds left.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
How does that even low that game to make.

Speaker 7 (07:48):
The series three to two, and all of a sudden,
Philly has this momentum the next two games, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
I mean, at least they'll goble all in New York
with that fan base they do.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
If they do way this series.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
That'll be fun, I would I would also like to
point out here.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
You have to say that they're used to it though,
especially Knicks fane Lickerbuckers.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
You know, they let them get away, you know.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
By the way.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
I think somebody was pointing out also it was Reggie
Miller on the call last night.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
I think Reggie Miller, well, there you go, so his
hands around his neck.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
That's still one of the most amazing comebacks I've ever seen.
Eddie's literally telling the crowd. Eddie's telling Spike Lee, you're choking,
and I think, what was they They were down ten
with like fifty seconds left or something like that, and
he's single handedly, you know, had Indiana winning that game.
But it should be pointed out though that for you know,

(08:42):
all the all the disrespect that the great John Calipari
has gotten. You know, Tyrese Maxi, that's a Calipari product,
and all those years of tutoring and development and coaching
from John Calipari has led him to this moment. Where
he's been one of the best players in the postseason.
Just a dominant performance last night, and I'm happy for him.
And if you're an Arkansas basketball fan, and there's a

(09:03):
lot of those that listen to this.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Show, I know that for sure, that's so much to big.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
You've got to be thrilled with what you were able.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
To have, to have Maxi's and all kinds of you know,
Anthony Davis is coming your way.

Speaker 7 (09:15):
You know, I'm not gonna comment. I'm I'm not going to.
I know what you guys are doing. What not going
to Arkansas? I'm not going.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
I'm not going to.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
Not going to.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
I'm not going to. What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Just we just want to celebrate John Calipari and just
sort of the impact he's had on the NBA.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
I mean, that's what he's told you guys.

Speaker 5 (09:39):
He is getting them ready for the league and they
they they will do like they've what they've done, like
a billion dollars worth of contracts and player contracts from
his kids. I mean, I'm saying, you want to be
a millionaire, go go play for Caler Perry. You know,
there you go, Yeah, that's the move at Kentucky. You know, wait,
I mean at Arkansas.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
You know.

Speaker 4 (10:02):
Joel Embiid is not anywhere close to being healthy. Dude, No, No,
Like he.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Looks is sore. It looks like it's collapsing. It looks inflated,
doesn't it.

Speaker 5 (10:11):
Yeah, like it's going to collapse, like go to the inside,
like he's gonna go knock neat off of this.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
You gotta be careful. It's like it's like what it's like,
will you jack that finger up?

Speaker 5 (10:27):
And it starts to like look all kind of weird
and do crazy things that he better be cared. They
better put a splint on that is Uh, they better
put a splint on that leg. It started to look
like a finger like that pinky.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
I think Nick Nurse, the seventy six ers coach, jacked
up his finger.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
I saw that.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
I think he might have broken his finger because he
was upset with a call. So you've got him with
a busted up finger.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
And Christ Finch.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Coach the other day. Yeah, he ran over, got his.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Leg ripped off, and then you know you're seeing all
this stuff play out. I just is knocked nea. Is
that what Kenny Smith is? Is that what they always bust?

Speaker 5 (11:06):
That is like the worst case of knock need Yeah,
how does that happen?

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (11:11):
Knee injuries, that's heredity. He's already he's always been built
like that. You know, they might have sunk in a
little bit.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
More, but.

Speaker 4 (11:22):
That gives in the slam dunk contest.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Yeah, maybe that was what did it.

Speaker 4 (11:26):
With knock knees.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
I don't know. Maybe, you know, we don't know they
was knocked.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
I remember I used to always be like, man, like
he's got you know, his knees are knocking, but he's good,
Like he's quick, he can jump, you know, he's good.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
But well he did when he ran to the board.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Because they've been ding him, so he pretended to spill
his coffee cup and thought he had one over on
him and he fell when he was going up the
steps to the board.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah. Uh.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
And then because they're doing the NHL the other studio,
shack and those guys are always over there trying to
get on skates and uh and take the stick.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
It's it's the best show, best set up, best lineup
as well.

Speaker 5 (12:10):
They don't care at all. I think that that's why
our show works because we just don't care. I mean,
if we could be on here, you know, being so
tight and so into this, that and the other. We
just we just have fun. You know, you can't care
too much if you're going to have a good show,
because people don't want to be too serious.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
You know, I don't. I'm too serious if you if
you're listening to us for seriousness, I don't tell you. Yeah,
it's not gonna end.

Speaker 5 (12:35):
Well, we'll give you a little bit, you know, they
will give you a little bit. They'll they'll they'll show
you the intelligence. They will show you that IQ. Like
when we need IQ, we go to Q. That's why
you're cute, you know, you put the Q and IQ,
you know what I mean. But when you want to.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
Slappies, we want the slappies aspect of it. You come
hang with Jonas and me. You know, we give you
the slappies, the slappy jappies. Whoa, whoa, hold on, I
don't know. I don't even know what that meant. I
don't know either. Go ahead, all right, but.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Hey, listen, I do know that we have got a
full show here coming up until nine am Eastern time,
six o'clock Spacific. Now, it should be noted that if
you are a big fan of the Petros Papadeka's appearances
every Wednesday. He is not going to be with us
today because he was with us yesterday. So Petros was
with us yesterday, and you know he was. I think
he was a little bit of nooy towards the end

(13:28):
because we kept pointing out that he was getting nailed
by the King Lebron James, So I think he was.
So if you want to Petros wear the ass, he
can check that out. But we do have another edition
of in case you missed it.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
We've also got her.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Didn't we Awards and we're going to close up shop
with the BQ News here as we do per usual
on a Wednesday. Gang coming up next year though from
the time studios, we do have a peek into the
future when it comes to the NFL, because something might

(14:05):
happen a little bit sooner than what we previously thought.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
We'll tell you what that is next here on FSR.

Speaker 3 (14:10):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington, and

Hey, this is Tom Berducci from Fox Sports, MLB Network
and Sports Illustrated.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
And I'm Joe Madden.

Speaker 5 (14:31):
We're going to be around to talk a little bit
about managerial decisions and what may have accredited to a
dugout maybe in the nineteen eighties.

Speaker 4 (14:37):
It's the Book of Joe podcasts. I can't wait for this, Joe.

Speaker 8 (14:39):
We're going to dive into what goes on in the
dugout and behind the scenes in.

Speaker 8 (14:46):
Yeah, well, there are no boundaries, right. Listen to the

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio,
LaVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here coming
up a little over twenty minutes from now from the
tire rack dot Com studios. You talk about a terrible,
terrible way to start a game, just awful. It happened
last night in the world of sports. We'll explain why
that is coming up here again a little over twenty
minutes from now.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Also, at some point we should probably revisit.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
Towards the end of the show, there was an extremely
scorching hot take that was presented to us by Lorena,
our technical producer, who basically just decided.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
To just let everybody know.

Speaker 4 (15:32):
Yeah, like, listen, I'm not.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Pushing cars dented up. Yeah it's me.

Speaker 4 (15:36):
I'm not pushing your cards back, Disciples. Y'all should have
seen the hate mail I was receiving.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
I'm kidding, Justify.

Speaker 4 (15:44):
I mean, you should have heard what she was saying.
After the show was over. I was standing my ground. Okay,
like nobody agreed.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
With it, I know.

Speaker 7 (15:52):
I mean, I'm not going to say, like, because you
played the child car, like I have my child with me,
I'm not going to put it back my child or kids.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Definitely, did I.

Speaker 7 (16:02):
Go to the grocery store with three or four kids
at a time? You could put you could put the
cart back. No, I've got multiple moving objects in a
parking lot that I'm concerned about as well.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
I still put the cart back.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
Yeah, put the cart back, man, you.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Gotta put the cart back.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
I'll debate it. I'll debate it, and and I was
thinking about it this morning. I will think about it
next time I take a car back. I sometimes even
just use the baskets. I don't even use carts all
the time because I don't overshop.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Wait do you leave the baskets out there too?

Speaker 4 (16:30):
No, I just take bags out to the car. I
won't even take the back.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
That would be next level laziness. If somebody's actually leaving
the back.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
You imagine car. Oh my gosh, I'll do that next time.
I'd actually leave the basket. I'd actually admire that.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Just just the guts for somebody to be like, yeah,
this is appropriate. I'll just leave the basket I used
in the store right here next to my car. That
would be a move.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
I mean, it makes it easier for the hoboes to
walk off with the cars.

Speaker 5 (16:53):
It's true, you don't help. I know the hobo gets
the opportunity to Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
Yeah, well, I hopo has got to get a stra
What they mean.

Speaker 5 (17:02):
Why do they all have a cart? Were to notice
that one of them have a cart.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
Because Lorena leaves it next to their sleeping bag and
the front of the store. This is a gift from
me to you.

Speaker 4 (17:15):
You yeah, I'll leave it here, Okay.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
All right, hey, good luck to you.

Speaker 4 (17:20):
Why did they always have a car?

Speaker 7 (17:22):
I thought you were going to put out the the catfish,
because wasn't that your was it?

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Are you in your out or would you rather what
we're doing? Oh?

Speaker 4 (17:31):
Yeah, the catfish drinking out of the cat fish lore? Yeah,
but it's just because I saw it on TV. I
didn't actually drink out of a catfish. I wouldn't do,
not know.

Speaker 9 (17:40):
But the shoe also disgusts me, So I don't know
which one i'd actually choose.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
I'm telling you, catfish. Did we specify it was Lee's
shoe you would have to drink out of?

Speaker 2 (17:50):
No? You did not? You did? That might change and
that would change it.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
That might change what do you mean, Well, you might
catch a fungal attack that you might not recover from.

Speaker 7 (18:01):
Why Yeah, on his body and his body reacts to
falling down and whatnot.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
After seeing that, I don't think I want any part
of it. I saw the way his knee looked after
he broke skin, like he's.

Speaker 7 (18:15):
Not always exuding is really alcohol? I mean that's always
sweating out there as anyway.

Speaker 4 (18:21):
The part that's weird is that they'll just put it
back on will what's a big deal.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
The problem is like they just put it right back
on their foot, as if nothing had just happened, right,
it's like what you know, we'll just this is what
it is. It's like, well, no, like you just drank
beer out of a shoe and then just put it
back on and looked at us like we're weird.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
That's disgusting.

Speaker 7 (18:48):
It's so I'm sorry, no, it is.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
It is pretty gross. But they you know what, the
Austies like the party. Man, the wrong with that, and
if you are, they're.

Speaker 5 (19:02):
Just working too hard to create a you know, a tradition. Man,
Like there's something that you can just go without using
your shoe you are catfish. Yeah, that's just so you
could go without.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Those Oh you mean to tell me there's no tradition
in state college when you go out drinking, Like, there's nothing,
like what about Cafe two ten. The tradition there is
is the Long Islands. The islands.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
Yeah, and you get them in a little picture and.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
You know blackout. Yeah, that's that's the tradition.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (19:29):
You get the mugs because they give them to you
in mugs, you know, like not mugs, but like pictures,
you know, like the picture that you're supposed to share
amongst others. You drink out of it. You know, that's the.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
Key Man stuff right there.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
You know.

Speaker 5 (19:45):
Well, it's mainly until you start drinking it out of
a straw. See, I don't do straws. I take the
straw out and I drink it like a man.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
You know. That's what I'd encourage you.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
To do, those paper straws. Because one turtle got one
stuck in his nose and every but he had to
like throw a piss fit about it, like I don't,
I don't know what what a what a joke? Let
me tell you something. Tell that turtle to open his eyes,
all right, open your eyes. You're swimming towards a straw.
And just because you've got a coke problem doesn't mean
that we've got to sit here and have to have

(20:16):
a straw waste away in our drink and have paper
at the bottom of it because that turtle doesn't want
to open his eyes and swim properly through the ocean. Instead,
we got to feel the wrath from all these hippies
that want to make us feel guilty about some cod turtle.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
Yeah, bastards, that's all.

Speaker 7 (20:37):
I kind of thought the teenage mut and ninja turtles
were the sharks, though there was the sharks that was
getting hit by somebody dropped some cocaine into the ocean
or whatever. Reallyeahn't hear about that? It was like the
like that bear, remember Cocaine Bear, the movie that came out.

Speaker 5 (20:53):
There was a whole bunch of sharks swimming around like, hey,
we did.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
Jaws on on cocaine.

Speaker 10 (21:06):
That that was the only Johns that didn't think of right,
they had Joss swimming around the world to fall these people.
The only one they didn't think of a oh what
was a bunch of cocaine was ingested by a shark?

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Jos react that.

Speaker 6 (21:19):
Wait a second, trouble like you trouble like coke was
really a problem.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
For the.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
Shark right next to Tony Montana. That's the shark.

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Lad the shark he wipes out Quinn.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
And say a lot of my little front keeps. All
I got is my dorsal fin and my word. Oh
look at the pelican. I'm going to get that pelican.
Come here, pelican, Tony Jamaican, A come here pelican. You'll

(22:03):
neverize like, oh look at the pelican.

Speaker 4 (22:06):
Your's so PIOI.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
What are you chewing on? A one more time? Do
it again?

Speaker 4 (22:16):
Son? You can't pronounce the l I know.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
That's why I was, well, I.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
Do know this.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
I mean, uh, you know Turtles Sharks Thoroughbred Racing as
a new independent regulator HAISA that is implementing comprehensive reforms
and the sport is combining hands on care with cutting
edge technology to help keep its athletes safe. To learn
more of is it safety runs first dot com? That
safety runs first dot Com. So we do have a
little bit of an update here. It's just a matter

(22:50):
of when, not if, the NFL expands to eighteen games,
and Mark Masky of the Washington Post says that the
NFL might try and get play to agree to the
eighteen game season before the expiration of the current CBA
in twenty thirty one, and an unnamed source from the
player side told Pro Football Talk they expect a proposal

(23:11):
in the next twelve to eighteen months. So that's the
case realistic timeline that we can expect breaking out an
eighteen game season schedule in May like we do traditionally,
coming up here very soon. When do we get into
eighteen games with a couple of bye weeks?

Speaker 2 (23:29):
I love how you're excited about it.

Speaker 7 (23:30):
Have they said they are gonna put in a couple
of bye weeks and not just one.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
Goodell threw that out.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Yeah, well we'll see if he actually does it.

Speaker 7 (23:41):
I think you're getting sooner than later here. I'll put
the over under two and a half years under.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
LeVar. What do you think two and a half, I'm
going to take the under. I think I'll take the
under two. I should put a one and a half,
but there's.

Speaker 5 (24:02):
One and a half is a little bit more complicated.
I'll take the over on one, but two years one
and a half, I take the over on one.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
And a half.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
I've just given up the fight on like I was
against Like I was okay with sixteen games, they went
to seventeen. I was okay with a four team college
football playoff. And then I remember Brady and I having
a discussion and I was just like, you know what,
there's so much money involved. They're going to figure out
some way to make it make sense, even though physically
it probably doesn't.

Speaker 7 (24:29):
And I just space for the space sound off the wall.
But I was having this conversation with a buddy yesterday.
There's nothing good to watch anymore, Like there's no good writing,
and I don't know what that's a byproduct of don't.
I don't know if it's the fact that we've we've

(24:50):
got social media, so you know, everyone.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Sees everything, right, like you talk to your buddies, like
you see that the one thing that we oh yeah
I saw that. Yeah, it's like everyone sees the same
stuff it is on it we do.

Speaker 7 (25:01):
But I think it takes away the lack of creativity
to create other concept shows, like it just forces everyone
to be in the same group.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
Think.

Speaker 7 (25:11):
And I was like saying my wife the other day,
I was like, is there any shows or anything to watch?
We have all these different streaming channels that you can
subscribe to, you all watching the same crap, and outside
of maybe Netflix and a few new shows they have,
like there's just nothing new, you know, the movies they're
doing remakes of older movies. Sports is the only thing

(25:34):
right now that we have from an entertainment standpoint going
for us, the only thing that and I would say
maybe stand up comedians like going and seeing them in
person some of their new specials, but like to that point,
like the comedians are the ones that have the new material,
and so outside of that, it's sports.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
It's live entertainment.

Speaker 7 (25:56):
Where you don't know what you're gonna get, and but
you're gonna be entertained or maybe you're not. But either way,
like you have no idea. And that's part of the
excitement of what a live game brings because these leagues
are generating so much cash, even some of these leagues
that aren't even started up yet.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
I'll just I'll put it that way.

Speaker 7 (26:16):
I was doing something yesterday and I saw some of
the PGA Tour is doing and I looked at us, go.

Speaker 9 (26:23):
Man, how much money is into this so far? And
it's not even a thing yet, but it will be
in January twenty twenty five. And so you started to
look into stuff. You're like, that's that's what it is.

Speaker 7 (26:35):
Everyone's trying to build up live sports, men's sports, women's sports,
the WNBA, the expansion teams with it, professional women's soccer,
it's all of it. Like that's that's all it is
right now. And at some point there's got to be
a bubble like this can't last forever, can it?

Speaker 4 (26:52):
I don't know, Man, the NFL figures out a.

Speaker 5 (26:54):
Way, it'll be, it'll last be on our forever. I
mean we go, Yeah, I don't know what forever well
for the next generation of Forever's, but it'll definitely continue
to go up.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Which really from where we're at, which.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Really, listen, if we're being honest here, just keep me
entertained while I'm still around my son.

Speaker 5 (27:16):
And whatever happened You's like how you're talking about the
world coming to it in and all that sudden way.
I'll be looking at my kids like, man, you hey,
what do you.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
Sound like we're going to check out of here just
in time?

Speaker 4 (27:28):
You guys, you guys working on that bomb shelter yetn't know.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
I'm sorry, hope you figure it out. Sounds like you
have some fighting words there, buddy.

Speaker 4 (27:41):
I just, you know, like I want to be entertained
while I'm here.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
And if the NFL puts together eighteen game season, it
is like I tried watching on Netflix. There was some
show I think it was called What Jennifer Did or
some crap like that, and it's like, first of all,
it's depressing, right. Secondly, it's like four parts and there's
no real conclusion, and I'm like, so to your point,

(28:07):
the writing is so poor that we're depending on real
life stories that may or may not have been fudged
a little bit just to make them a little bit
more entertaining, because nothing's entertaining. So yeah, if it means
eighteen games for an NFL regular season to kind of
get us back on track and take over an entire
calendar year, is what it is.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
It's gotta happen.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Am I the only I mean, I feel like you
feel that way? Do you feel that way?

Speaker 5 (28:33):
Far?

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Like, are you watching something different? If we're watching that's unique.

Speaker 5 (28:37):
I I don't know. I find that there are some
shows that are interesting for me to watch. If if
I don't find something interesting within sports or regular I
generally won't even watch television.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
What was it you who said that you were thinking
about rewatching Game of Thrones?

Speaker 2 (29:02):
Yes? Probably?

Speaker 1 (29:03):
Okay, So that's how bad things are that Shill came
out in twenty eleven.

Speaker 5 (29:07):
And I'm saying rewatch from the start, right, not not
I'll rewatch, Yeah, because it's it's really hard to find
good programming.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
That's it's that's true. So you're kind of proving the point. Yeah,
I am.

Speaker 5 (29:20):
I just, I just and I mean listen, maybe that's
why the whole rules thing and all of the physicality
and the brutality of football is being regulated in a
in a way where you know, it even comes down
to maybe questions like you saw the I don't know
how true it is, but you saw how they they
said they may be giving players the option to wear

(29:43):
those those cushion cushion helmets.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
In the game. Ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (29:48):
I just you know, it's I just feel the held
really is it is?

Speaker 2 (29:53):
It is? It?

Speaker 5 (29:55):
Is this safe to say that there's the possibility that
it could get watered down at some point, like what
we've loved about football and competing in football could be
watered down a bit where it's like kind of like

(30:15):
a turn off to watch it. I mean, I don't know,
I'm certain it would take a lot because I just
I don't I mean, I watch football because it's just
it's you know, you got to watch football like it's football.
See you got to watch football, which is weird because
there's football on right now, and I don't really like
watching football. I don't really like watching this this league, the.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
UFL, the numbers like they're beating NBA playoff games.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Are they really? So really I'm not into it.

Speaker 7 (30:46):
For some reason, I was actually gonna say this, and
it was important because of course I was on social
media and saw some clip of like Kobe talking and
just saying how and this is you know, back when
he was living and talking about the game of bad
basketball and how it's changed. And it really has the
sense of there is no offense. It's isolation basketball. It's

(31:09):
drive to the rim. If I get a free free
look at it, great, If not, I'm throwing it out
to the perimeter for a three point shot. That is
in large part become what the NBA has become. It
is awful and it's it's not like the triangle offense.
That again, growing up watching Michael Jordan, his greatness was

(31:29):
part of that, but there was also this element of
there was an offense that was being run and they
knew based on how you're going to try to defend
their offense, what would be open, whether when they would
try to w when you could kick out for the
open shot, when there was a backcut, when you know,
when there's the opportunity to isolate and try to take
it to you know, to the rim. There was just
all these different elements of how the offense was run.

(31:52):
And in today's NBA it feels like it's four dudes
standing around the three point line and then one guy
trying to isolate his man to the hole and if
he gets there, great, If not, he throws it back
outside for a three, and like that's sixty percent of
the offensive possessions. It is so hard to watch compared

(32:13):
to what basketball used to be. And there's elements when
I watch college basketball like, well, these guys are running
a real offense.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
It's a lot of fun because you get.

Speaker 7 (32:20):
To see how kind of nifty and crafty like these
teams that aren't as talented, but they can match up
with other teams in the NBA, everyone's talented, So it
just ends up just kind of being the same thing.
I just I don't know, the product is not what
it used to be. And if that's what you're talking
about the NFL becoming, yeah, it would be difficult to watch,
Like they should be careful about the rules that are

(32:41):
implementing to a certain degree.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Once we get to that point.

Speaker 5 (32:47):
It's type bit of a conundrum because I get it.
If the brutality is too much, it's like, man, you're
going into more of that, Like why are you doing
more of it? But at the same time, it's want more,
But to me, that's that's I mean, isn't that your
secret sauce?

Speaker 2 (33:05):
I'm gonna jack you up? Like we're going we're going.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
To have that.

Speaker 5 (33:09):
We're going to have cats out here jacking each other up,
and within the chaos of people like really really out
here to jack one another up. You got to try
to get this ball across that line all the way
down on the other side of the field, Like that's.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
What we love. You can't say yeah, I don't, I
don't while we know.

Speaker 7 (33:30):
Steve Young put it up posted a photo. I think
they were playing like the La Rams In the photo.
Did you see this? No, So he's getting he's like
getting sacked up top. There's another guy trying to grab
his leg and like swing him.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
He basically been a cop. Like it looks a lot
different than today's game.

Speaker 7 (33:47):
It's for like two different guys trying to take him
down in the way they're trying to like rip him
to the ground. And then the other low key observation
was like one team has spread Russell Athletic jersey's the
other one was wearing Wilson. I was like that, what
a difference in the NFL. Just just the entire photo, Like
all the stories that it's told from that one shot
and that one angle of how different the came is.

Speaker 1 (34:07):

In case you hey, but hey LaVar guys, in case

Speaker 2 (35:41):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (35:42):
Quite a delay between the Dodgers and Diamondbacks yesterday at
Chase Field and Phoenix uh hour and a half delay
thanks to a collection of bees, a hive of bees.

Speaker 4 (35:50):
Behind home base.

Speaker 11 (35:51):
They had to call in a local bee specialist, Matt Hilton,
to come take care of it while the Chase Field
fittingly played holding out for a hero and then they
let him throughout the first pitch.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
I mean, I've got questions.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
Was there anybody that was already scheduled throughout the first pitch,
and they were like, I'm not waiting around an hour
and a half and that's why this guy got the
call or probably.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
Okay, can I ask this question?

Speaker 4 (36:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:21):
Did they not see this forming like before the game
took place? Could they not have dressed this beforehand?

Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:29):
Was this that big of a deal. They could just
play the game.

Speaker 4 (36:31):
It's not birds migrating south.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
It's not bees that were just overtaking the first base.
This was like on the side.

Speaker 4 (36:42):
Right slightly behind home plate.

Speaker 2 (36:45):
I think, yeah.

Speaker 7 (36:46):
But it wasn't impacting home plate, was it.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
It was?

Speaker 11 (36:50):
It was more so for the fans. It was affecting
the safety for the fans.

Speaker 7 (36:55):
So they have eighty one home games a year and
this one. We couldn't just start on time and then
figure out the situation as we go.

Speaker 4 (37:04):
We gotta look out for the fans.

Speaker 7 (37:06):
I'm all for the bees, all right. I'm just watched
a terrible movie called The Bee Keeper. But Jason, but
do you think that's a good movie.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
I just.

Speaker 11 (37:19):
It was so bad. I agree with you, Brady, was
so comically awful.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Comically awful. It was that bad. But it does lead
to the importance of bees. I do understand their importance.
I hate them. I get rid of them around here.

Speaker 5 (37:33):
Sorry, I know that they keep our world together, but
I told it. Like I said, listen, my forever is
different than other people's forever. So when them bees is
coming through and I'm trying to sit out at my
pool and enjoy myself, bro, y'all gotta go, Zapper comes out.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
Yeah, I'm I'm allergic. So yeah, it's you know, got gotta.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
Be wash dragonflies.

Speaker 5 (37:59):
I thelight in being able to spark their asses right
on up with that Zapper man, I'm.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Not even like we just gotta have an understanding, Like listen,
you don't go near me and I'm not gonna go
near you.

Speaker 4 (38:13):
And that's fine.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Like I don't actively try and kill them like I'm not,
you know, an assassin like LeVar.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
That's just not me.

Speaker 5 (38:20):
But it's amazing to think that they'll make you jump
off your raft, something so small in comparison to your body,
make you fall off your wraft, have your drink all
kinds of stuff just fall right into your pool because
you don't want to get stung.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
You know what, I fight.

Speaker 4 (38:33):
Back, I choose balance, And what does it sound like?

Speaker 5 (38:40):
I mean it makes the most amazing sound. I would
recommend to everybody get you a fly zapper swatter. That's right,
swat them
