Bull count starting to get some swings and misses. Now

the first few innings.

There you go, Robert Ford sing it all. Astro is
able to take down the Cardinals last night. Rubber game
coming up this afternoon. And the Rockets, they know exactly
who they have Sunday, Game one of the Western Conference playoffs.
It is the Warriors. And with that we say away
we go here. Good morning on the Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Good morning, Warriors, Come out to play, Warriors, Yeah, come
out to play.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
You know the cut you just you just forgot the
coke bottles or the beer bottles or whatever that the guys,
how we.

Speaker 6 (02:05):
Doing my fingers with my thumb and like the three
fingers other than your pinky.

Speaker 5 (02:11):
Yeah, there's there's a bunch of guys out there, you know,
shirtless with vests on that.

Speaker 7 (02:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:16):
They they're staying away from the Let's see, give me
some of the other gang names in that show with
the ones who ran around in the pinstripe Yankee over there,
the baseball the the baseball Furies, is that who they were?
The baseball bat Hey tripley. Could you pull out because
I don't think this matters because's not music, right, Uh,
pull up the guy that says, just say Warriors come

(02:37):
out to play. All we'll get to that. So they're
coming out to play.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
I was gonna say it should be the first one
up there. But yeah, I mean it's if nothing else,
it is a chance. And I'm sure that all the
national talking heads are gonna have all. Is there a
mental block for the Rockets to get over to beat
these guys? Well, Harden's not on this team, Bingo, Chris
Paul is not on this team.

Speaker 6 (02:58):
Russ Westbrook's not on this team. Yeah, they Eric Gordon,
that's exactly right. Yeah, so I think they're you know
what most of these kids were what shooting jump shots
in high school? You know, freshman, sophomore. I mean a
lot of them were when when that was the the
constant talk. The new coach, new front office knew everything.

(03:19):
For the most part, I think I think that most
of them are like, I don't, I have no idea.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I mean I.

Speaker 6 (03:26):
Watched it, but that wasn't a part. I wasn't on payroll, right,
that's my favorite thing. Well, can they get over it? Well, yeah,
being the fact that I was fifteen when it happened
as a player, I'm not real worried about can they
get over the bottom line is it didn't a matter
of woh they got them because it's Golden State and
the Rockets, and simply Golden State's been better, okay, and
we'll find out if they are here. They played their

(03:47):
way in and they're they're a dangerous team to play
their way in on the playing game again, they really are.
And you know, we we know what Steph Curry brings
to the table. But I'm gonna tell you what, I'm
not sure the Golden State Warriors are over the comfortable
with this series either. So they got some stuff to
deal with because this is a different rock different Rockets
team with a different energy.

Speaker 5 (04:06):
Well, and it's also the you know you brought up
the Warriors, but I'll go another show example that I
brought up before. You gotta be Walter white Man. You
are the danger like things are different now. And I
mean that was a team back then that they lived
by the three, they died by the three. That you
defensively had your shortcomings. So it allowed for Steph Curry

(04:27):
and Klay Thompson and all these other guys to get going.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
I think that he Ma Doka.

Speaker 5 (04:31):
I mean part of you know, like we talked about
with Kelvin Sampson, you create a culture, and his culture
here is.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Don't take any blank from anyone, right.

Speaker 5 (04:39):
And I think the last time that the Rockets went
out to Golden State and took on this team, I
think they kind of unlocked something like they're like, these
guys aren't so bad.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Yeah, you got another team.

Speaker 6 (04:49):
You got to get over the team that this this
team ain't win in seventy plus games, right, this is
I mean, it's different and the you know, the the
era of Golden State and Steph Curry and Draymond Green
because they're still there, but there's been changes with them
as well. And you can send a message and the
truth is you're right, makes you I mean, listen, it's
okay for Golden State to feel like this is a

(05:11):
different Rockets team as well, different franchise, different culture, the
way they're doing things, and they're going to contest more
shots than the team.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
To the past.

Speaker 6 (05:18):
And I both know that when you were playing with
the Harden, you were playing with four guys. Defensively, if
you just were, and and so you're you're dealing with that.
I'm not good now. Is Golden Stake capable winning the series?
Obviously they are, there's no question about that. But I
don't think seven years ago, five years ago, four years

(05:39):
ago has anything to do with this. The bottom line is,
contain the shooter and test those shots, get on the
backboards and play that play defense. Like the head coaches
encourage you to what you to. And you know, both
coaches in this series are Greg Popovich, you know, pupils
and so there's going to be a philosophy on it

(05:59):
both And here's what happens when the Warriors and the
Rockets get together.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Come out to play.

Speaker 8 (06:10):
Yeah, come out to.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
Man, come out to play.

Speaker 6 (06:24):
The Warriors come out to play. I mean we're ready.
I mean the Rockets are ready for him. I think
that's how they're walking into the arena.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
I would think. So, I mean, yeah, dok Is gonna
come out. Yeah, you imagine here Warriors to play. He
doesn't fit him, does it?

Speaker 9 (06:39):
No?

Speaker 5 (06:39):
I was gonna say, I don't think you want the
team leader to do that. I think that probably Steven
Adams would be a good one, Like you know.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Yeah, little. It's intimidating.

Speaker 6 (06:47):
Sure, he's I mean obviously the other guy was a
little you know little and the guy the last, the
one guy who wasn't gonna fight, not the guy.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
That played Sully on Commando. Yeah, damn right. You know,
Schwartzegger had to chase down the lax and the rest
of it. Sully. Remember I told you I'd kill you last.

Speaker 6 (07:04):
Yes, that's him, or the guy on that killed Chris
rock in the Longest Yard. Oh that's right, Yeah, memory
set a cell on fire. Yeah right, yeah, caretaker yep,
RP caretaker yep. So yeah, that was that was one
of his first big roles, I think. Yeah, but yeah

(07:25):
that was Sully. That's exactly right, and Schwarzenegger put it
on him. Finally got his ass. So yeah, after he
kills the guy on the plane that Raydon Chong Too's daughter, Yeah,
from Cheech and Chong. So yeah, man, I I think
this is a great challenge for the for the Rockets.
But I also know that they can send a loud

(07:45):
message that will echo through the West and sounds cheesy,
but send a loud message in this series. And I
know there's some who say there, well, they're going to
get in and they're get eliminated. I'm not so sure
that I think this team can compete in this series.
So I'm looking forward to it. And it'll be good
psychologically for them too.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
If they can get through. This would be a good test.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
This is going to be hot takey radio. And I
say that tongue in cheek because it's not They're all
good from here on out.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Oh yeah, they're They're they're all really good.

Speaker 5 (08:15):
So yeah, if you're able to get through this one,
then you would get the winner of the three sixth series,
which I don't have the standings in front of me,
but I think that's the Lakers.

Speaker 6 (08:24):
I think it is. So, I mean, look the other
if we're gonna keep winning, you're going to see good one.
You're you're going to see this well you want to
avoid them. Well most of the time, Dan, what I
know is you push into the seven game series mode
right right as a series as the playoffs go along.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Most of the time, see like a.

Speaker 6 (08:42):
Three game series or a one Days used to have
three game series and I can remember you went quick too.
I mean, sometimes it's not the best team who wins, right,
get on a shooting role somebody fouls out and now
you're chasing in game two and oh my gosh, we
didn't even get a chance to breathe listen, and then
you see like an end finals. A couple of years ago,
we discussed the on a on a show in Tripley

(09:04):
and I were discussing.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
It is when.

Speaker 6 (09:08):
We were talking about Budenholzer right when he was what
the Bucks head coach when they won a world championship,
and what a year or two later that he's fired.
And now the very team that he won a championship
against was the Sons, if I'm not mistaken correct, and
then he was their coach and now they fired him.
You know, we're talking about player empowerment. Well, in that series,
if you remember, the Sons were up to oh right,

(09:30):
and then Giannis took over and they couldn't defend him,
and he wore out Kamenski and the whole group and
they kicked their ass, right, I mean that whole I
mean they just could not defend him on the the
other end, and the Honist took over and they went
and won the NBA Championship. I'm pretty sure that was
the same year. And then Budenholzer a few years later
would have many coach in the Suns. Right if i'm
if I think that time TRIPLEI that's the timeline we said, right.

(09:51):
Budenholzer was the coach when Milwaukee won their championship with
the box, right exactly. But they were down two oh
in the series and we thought all sons are going
to win and then it went to hell in a handbasket. Right, Well,
it's the same thing here. You're eventually in a seven
game series. Normally the better team wins normally. Now there
are the aberrations that go with It's not always, but

(10:11):
in truth, if you look at a team right like
right now, if the Dodgers were getting ready to play
a seven or the Padres the way they're playing, playing
a seven game series against the Seattle Mariners, who would
you pick. Of course, you're going to pick the Dodgers
because you think they're the best team. Now, the aberration
is is somebody you have two bad games in a
row and you're chasing, and then a guy you know
gets the flu and doesn't play in game three. You know,
all those things that have to come to fruition. But

(10:32):
in a long series, as the playoffs go along, so
you're talking about they're all good, you're gonna so you
have to you go by and say, okay, if we
face the top seed in each series, we were in
for a battle. If you face the team there beat,
you're in for a battle, right. So you just normally though,
when you settle in seven game series, when the Celtics
and Lakers in the eighties show time and that we're

(10:53):
playing in a long series, you had to do something
really special to knock them out right, sure, and it happens, so, uh,
you'd much rather have old school three game or a
five game series. We have an opportunity to get at
him seven game series. Eventually the best team wins, so
you get a chance to prove if you really do belong.
It's not one of those lucky you got beat by
a buzzer beater in single elimination NC to a tournament.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Unlike the playing game.

Speaker 6 (11:16):
Now, it's let's go see what happens is a series
go and you get you know, to the back end.
So it doesn't matter if you get him now or later.
You're gonna face the best teams because most times in
a long series that team wins.

Speaker 5 (11:27):
And to your points, I mean defense wins, and I
understand what the rock Every score. Their shortcomings are offensively,
but I mean you brought up those Milwaukee Buck teams.
This Rockets team has a lot of similar characteristics because
I mean, everybody focuses on Yannis and for the right reasons,
but I mean think about guys like Bobby Portis and
guys like Pat Connaton. I mean, other guys that can

(11:48):
almost kind of be like the hockey example.

Speaker 6 (11:51):
That came up big in that series. Who's the number
two score? I'm lose Lilton? Yeah there you go? Yeah yeah,
And he was and in that series and a couple
games he was like, well, think about the Kawai series
when when when when they won it in Toronto, same
way you had, Van Vliet was a part of it.
You started to looking around and their their other score,
the skinny small forward.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah there you go.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
Seekham another one kind of reminded me of middle you know, takeover.
It's become almost a star and get paid on your
own where you're a number two, but man, you need
you for a number one. That night, remember when Drew
Holliday and they played against Portland and uh uh gosh,
damn a veterans. I'm on the young guys now, I
can't even remember. What's my guy in Portland who was

(12:36):
there is not there anymore? Their best player Ford, No,
he's not there anymore. Dame Lilody, and then Dame I'm
so focused on the Rockets. But when Damon if you
remember in that shorter series in the in the series
when he was in New Orleans is Drew Holliday destroyed,
destroyed him on the defensive end, and he had like
thirty and forty or the thirties and forties in back

(12:58):
to back games. So you'll get those guys. But he
defended him. You defended him, and then the other guy.
It's a lot of times that your focus as you
had mentioned, the Middletons and the Van Vlietz and the
Sea Okhams and the Drew Hollidays, depending on both ends.
And he really made it tough on Dame Lillard in
the series on both ends, and they the elimination in

(13:20):
that one. So it defense will travel, it always does.
And remember well that at the time Giannis was also
I mean we were considered him or he won Defensive
Player of the Year or was First team All Defense
around that time. Sure, he ramped his side of the
court up too. If you're gonna win the whole thing,
you better defend. That's just the way it is, because
everybody can score.

Speaker 5 (13:41):
Yeah, I mean, and you know to your points. I
mean this becomes kind of a single single game season
at this point. I mean, you know, you win a game,
all right, that's great.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
That's one. Then you got to put two together.

Speaker 5 (13:52):
You got to put three, you gotta put four, and
then here's the beauty of it, you got to do
it all over again.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
And then you got to do it again.

Speaker 5 (13:57):
And then if you're lucky enough to get there at
the end, you got to do it all at the end. So,
I mean, this is the fun These are the fun times.
This is what we look forward to. Why you want this,
why you get paid and want to do it.

Speaker 6 (14:09):
This is where now the other guys get to stay
at home and watch the big boys playing.

Speaker 7 (14:13):
Go.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Yeah, I mean I like it.

Speaker 7 (14:15):
Now.

Speaker 5 (14:15):
Imagine how many teams out there would be willing to
switch spots right now with the rockets.

Speaker 6 (14:19):
So but what you can't take a deep breath, Well we
made it to the playoffs. There's been a minute we
go you know, we're the two seed. Man, we're good
to go. Yeah, you can't. You can't get that, I
mean good to go, yes, but can't get caught up
in the fact that what happened the regular seas because
there's a new intensity and it is and but you
should walk as if you belong because they've earned it.

(14:39):
But it's just getting started now. It is just getting
started now. So no time to take a sigh of
relief and say we're on house money. No, you go
take care of your business now, because house money sometimes
doesn't come back, you know what I mean, sure, and
you may not get it again for ten years. And
because you haven't been in it and a minute say okay,
we've arrived. You haven't arrived. You're in the playoffs, and
now the expect have raised.

Speaker 5 (15:01):
Well, I mean, and you know, Demiko Ryans has the
saying we didn't come this far just to get this far.
I'm pretty sure that Ima Doka cut from the same cloth.
And even hearing from some of the Rockets players of
being in this situation, they feel the exact same way.
So Sunday eight thirty over at Toyota Center, that's when
the Western Conference playoffs get started. We're a week away
from the NFL draft, two Texans currently slated to pick

(15:23):
twenty fifth overall. We'll get into some of them as
the show continues. You want to weigh in on the
phone line seven one three two one two five seven
ninety seven one three two one two five seven nine.
Let's get into some astros though, Hunter brown Man, he's
proven us right again and again and again, and we
are massive fans. We'll talk about it right here Sean
Salisbury Show.

Speaker 6 (15:43):
Hey, let's talk about a vacation and winning some money.

Speaker 7 (16:28):
This is are.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Three Salisbury continues now all sports talk seven ninety for
your Rockets.

Speaker 6 (16:39):
Obviously kept the ball in the ballpark, didn't give up
any runs, was well dominant.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
I mean, even though he didn't have fifteen strikeouts, he.

Speaker 6 (16:48):
Was dominant in in what I would consider dominant and
could have pitched longer. But I think they did the
I mean, it was just that's the way you'd like,
the smooth transition to go right boom boom boom, and
then hater gets to take takes care of his business,
and it took a while to get going because you
didn't get your runs till late and hung in there
and Hunter Brown you go keep walking out to the mountain.

(17:08):
It's like, man, would it have been a bummer to
ruin that kind of start? But thank goodness, it's been
too straight. No, that's exactly right with you know, aggressiveness
and uh and the aggressive part of Payina and third
base coach sending him home and getting that run, but
it's still not comfortable enough. And then the obviously jord

(17:29):
On with his four hundred and forty plus foot home run.
Now you but you'd like that a little earlier has
a breathing room, But when you're pitching one of those games,
you can't miss a pitch because you don't know if
your offense and especially this season, the ups and down
struggles of this offense and putting runs across tell me
you weren't thinking when they got to the fourth and
the fifth inning that you're thinking, oh, here we go.

(17:51):
You're you're one pitch away from spoiling a really good performance.
And it looks like an ace at the top of rotation,
and his performance doesn't shock me. I'd just like a
little more breathing room late now they got their runs
late too, So it was a good, you know, good
pitching duel and a great job by Hunter Brown taking
care of his business and get a day game to

(18:11):
game today to go win another series, which is important.
But it was nice to see or Don take care
of his business. But more importantly for me, I think
Hunter Brown continues to prove that he's less than a
year away from opening a season as you're number one.

Speaker 5 (18:25):
Starter, I mean, and you know, not knowing one hundred
percent where his contract situation sits, I think he's still
got the arbitration years, so you've got years of control.
But I mean, Sean, it's entering into a territory here
where I get that Scott Boris is his agent where
I think you need to approach him now. You need
to approach him right now with Hey, let's go ahead

(18:48):
and rip this up. Let's get through the arbitration years.
Eight years, one hundred and sixty million.

Speaker 6 (18:53):
Well, thanks for a good poll question. Maybe I'll have
to put up on mine. Is if you were ripped,
if you were signing an extension and you only had
to choose one, is it Hunter Brown or from or Valdez?

Speaker 2 (19:09):
What do you think? What do you think the masses
would say?

Speaker 6 (19:11):
You don't You don't need to put up a poll.
That's that's going to be overwhelmed. You're gonna you're gonna
have to consider Twitter now. Oh yeah, you sure it
would be overwhelming.

Speaker 5 (19:20):
It would be massive. That would be what I don't
you think it's eighty triple? You tell me if I'm
wrong here, if ratio still applies, that would be a ratio.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
So you've got.

Speaker 6 (19:28):
Ratio, yes, yes, but there are some that will they
will battle you on that.

Speaker 5 (19:33):
You know that there are some But they're gonna be
fighting you, losing art I'm talking about. And then you're
gonna have some contrarians out there who just want to say, oh, well,
you know what, I'm gonna go against the norm.

Speaker 6 (19:42):
Right, or they'll put a third name in there. Right,
they'll throw somebody else that's not on the pole. You
gave them two choices third. But they do that, they'll say, well,
they'll they'll give you third day get put another no.
But this also is an A, B, C or D.
It's a N B.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
It's only two of them. There's no CD. But I'm
just telling you.

Speaker 6 (20:02):
I think if you put a poll question up on Twitter,
I think the local fan base or Houston Twitter would
an Astros Twitter would overwhelmingly be Hunter Brown. I think
on the national skull, I don't think enough people, hardcore
baseball people do. I don't think the persons sitting in
Pittsburgh right now really Hunter Brown's I don't then never mind,

(20:27):
Oh he's he's a good pitcher. He's not schemes for
them yet in Pittsburgh, you know what I'm saying. So
I think they think because of the front, I think
you'd get the equalizer outside of this area. I think
a lot of people say, oh, from Broh, of course
he's your league.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
I think that's the thing. Look how good that guy
was in the World Series years ago?

Speaker 6 (20:47):
Right, and Hunter Brown his start last year, and then going,
I don't think people outside this he's one of those guys. Yeah,
what's that other picture in Houston? I mean I'm talking
about mid baseball fans. Right, what's that other picture? Who's
that's number two in huge?

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (20:59):
Yeah, that's right. The Hunter Brown looks like it came
from Verlander. K Oh, yeah, good picture. I don't think
they realize a lot of times, Oh he's not just
a good picture. This dude's got a chance to be
the ac or staff where Fromber's name's a little bit,
you know, talked about more left hand or all that.
I think that you'd be closer than you think. Maybe
I'm wrong, Maybe I will test it. I think Houston

(21:20):
has an idea of the consistency, the mental toughness. I
don't think there's any doubt, but I think on a
national poll scale, I think it'll be closer than you think,
because I Hunter Brown's that supporting actor that you say,
this guy deserves an Oscar and he it's time for
him to make him the a listed lead, right, the
leading man, and you have it. Yet you're like this

(21:43):
guy and he's been in three movies and he's been
great in all of them. When's he going to be
the guy who gets the girl?

Speaker 7 (21:47):
Right?

Speaker 6 (21:48):
I think Hunter Brown is on the doorstep of that.
He's not going to be the groomsman much longer. He's
Glenn Powell on Top Gun Maverick. There you go, because
Tom Cruise is the guy. But you're looking at palace. Somehow, someway,
if they do two or three, two more of these
or one more of these, somehow he slides into a
he's the next guy. And he played a good sort

(22:08):
of new age iceman. He did that, and now nobody's
Val Kilmer. But you know what, he has the same
uh arrogant attitude that in the movie.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Right, So yeah, there's this feeling.

Speaker 6 (22:20):
But like you said, go around and say, what's that
actor's name in in Top Gun Maverick? And they said,
what's what's he talking about? He talking about Bill Pullman's right,
or what's the what's the what's his name? The he
was his partner and Miles Teller, Yeah, tell her he
would say, you know, they would They would think tell
her first, and you're like, yeah, what's that guy's I

(22:43):
don't know his name, but I know just like I
told you Glenn, oh that guy and I watched movies
and I watched shows, right, and so you think, oh, okay,
that's what it is. And then all of a sudden
he said he's a last Oh it's about time Hunter
Brown's him. Hunter Brown is the guy like, yeah, man,
I know who he is. But Ace for staff Now,

(23:03):
I think, right now, if you had to make the choice,
and I think the astros would make the same choice
that you and I would, And I don't think they
question it for thirty seconds, is my opinion.

Speaker 5 (23:12):
Well, it's just I mean, you're tired of the yo yo.
I mean, that's just just what it is. I understand
it's a dated reference toy I don't think I've seen
anybody use a yo yo in years.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
But do have you ever walked the dog on a
yellow Yeah? I walk the dog, you know. Yeah? Oh,
you got to rock the cradle, rock the cradle, Yeah, yeah,
you gotta. I love yoyos. I used to.

Speaker 6 (23:31):
I mean, but as a kid, like every birthday, I
wanted to yo, yo, I love to walk the dog.
It was just you know, and you'd crack, you'd twist
the wires so you could walk and hold it and
free like the matrix.

Speaker 10 (23:40):
Right.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yeah, yeah yo. Now that we mentioned it's time to go,

Speaker 6 (24:21):
And I was going head first to Yeah, I'm going
ahead first. I mean I could I have set it
out a t for you to say, he's coming with something

Lacy procedure like me, or that get eyecare from doctor whitst.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
It's non invasive.

Speaker 6 (25:20):
I wasn't on the table ten minutes and seeing better
than I had since the prime of my vision.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
So for me, there's nobody better.

Speaker 6 (25:26):
It's doctor Jeff Witzeit at witsit Vision dot Com again
w H I T S E T T. When you're
looking for your eyes and they are precious, you want
an expert, right. You don't want to leave anything to chance,
and you won't chance anything but success with doctor Jeff
witze It. It's witsit Vision dot Com. Witsit Vision dot Com.
That's wits it Vision dot Com. For the Sean Salisbury

(25:48):
Show continued, gave.

Speaker 5 (25:52):
Our flowers this morning to Hunter Brown for good reason.
And you know that was a really good side of
last night, which, by the way, I mean even throughout
all that kind conversation, Brian King continues, and it's funny enough.
You know, I was looking for a guy to be
that seventh inning guy. I mean, looking at the trends
right now, I would say that Brian King's that guy
from the way that Joe has used the seventh inning

(26:14):
on these last few weeks and it's worked out incredibly
well for him. And kudos to Brian Abrady. Last night,
his stuff was not great. He gives up the one
to hot double to Lars newt Bar but is able
to strand him there and keep it at a one
nothing game or actually two nothing at that point and
then set it up for the ninth inning for Josh
Hater who oh, by the way, I mean after the

(26:36):
rocky first outing that he had this year where he
still got to save. He's converted every single time he's
been out there, so that's been good to see. But
the bats still leaving a little left to be desired.
And I would say that probably the guy right now
that is wearing most of that frustration is number eight,
Christian Walker. And he I mean, and he just contained

(26:58):
massively needs a day off. Yeah, yeah, I if I'm
Joe a spotted today and I talked about this a
little bit last night on the Tenth Inning Show, I
think he goes zach Zenzo today over there. You give
him a day off maybe if you want. Alex Sinchron
and Troyce Snicker working on some things with him in
the cage early BP stuff like that. You get the

(27:19):
off day built in tomorrow and then run it back
on Friday against the Padres. This is a guy right
now that is swimming at the plates. I mean, the
first at bat he had, he breaks his bat. It
looked like he got it off the end of the bat,
kind of closer to the barrel, but I think he
probably even hitting that was just like, what the hell, man,
this is somebody that's swimming up there, and when you're

(27:40):
at the plate, that ain't a good place to be in.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
So the question that I have.

Speaker 6 (27:45):
If I was just being a devil's advocate, but I'm
with you that if somebody were to pose the question
to us veteran, m hm, good player. Yes, successful warranted
this contract in Arizona. And I've talked to a couple
buddies of mine that said, great pro, great teammate, You're

(28:08):
gonna love him and he'll produce. Was the quote that
I got from people that cover him in Arizona. Yeah,
and whenever I hear great pro, it tells me good
or bad. He's still grinding in a clubhouse and doing
all the grinding the right way, right, encourage you to
get posts. Yeah, it's like we talked about pitching. So
I would ask you this reserve the right to when

(28:31):
I say the right, that's probably the wrong choice. As
a veteran. Would a guy like that want to sit
back and get a look like you'd say, rookie, sit
back and just observe for a minute, or is do
you say you know what, You've produced enough body of
work and enough evidence and enough skins in a game

(28:51):
and stuff on the wall to you fight through this.
You're our first basement. One hundred and fifty five games
this year, fight through it? Which I know it's only
one day. Is one day enough to sit back and
let the Zenzo or somebody go play two or three
games in a row, or it?

Speaker 2 (29:07):
Would it be it?

Speaker 7 (29:07):
Wo?

Speaker 6 (29:08):
Would he take it disrespectfully? Is like, well, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
It's okay. I've been through slumps before, and I think
Steve Sparks made a phenomenal point, which he does every week.
But my favorite thing from that interview, aside from we
get great information from Steve every week, is when he
said guys will go hit one seventy five throughout the season.

(29:30):
In certain stretches, every guy goes through it. But in
July or June that's seven eight games of one seventy five.
We see it, but it's not as glaring. You know,
people are going if oh, he's in an over twelve street,
well that's baseball, right, ye get it hard going to somebody?
We all the stars go to it. Sure, Now maybe guys,

(29:52):
you know, immortals like Tony Gwynn and stuff that theirs
was over three instead of zero for fifteen or one
for eighteen.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
But to go through it.

Speaker 6 (29:59):
But if it happens in the the two places you
don't want to happen are down the stretch when they
need you and you're tied ruining for the division. It's
it's it's hyper sensitive, and it is pronounced at the end.
But anymore, we come out of spring train and hit
the ground. Everybody's eyes are focused Christian Walker and he's
new here, right, he's new here. Yeah, you want to
be able to said good first and probably say gosh,

(30:20):
dang it, we're sick of this, but it's who he is.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
I'll see you in late May.

Speaker 5 (30:25):
Right, Plus the lack of production you've been getting at
the spot, right.

Speaker 6 (30:28):
That's exactly right from the all hell yes at first
base in particularly like first thought is here we go again?
I'm telling you, oh yeah, please, folks listen. As much
as I like a Brady was an MVP in Chicago,
I get all that, but his Christian Walker's best baseball
hasn't been played yet. I mean, he's you know what
I'm saying can say he's still got plenty of great
baseball in him. That the comparison maybe the struggles there,

(30:52):
but the overall what you expect from him is not.
There's much higher expectations at this stage in my mind,
Christian Walker, even though a bray you was a couple
of years removing, we got him here of an MVP award, right,
I think it was the shortened season, wasn't We're in
twenty twenty when he won the MVP in Chicago. I
think was it a shortened season he won it? I
think so. So with that, with the so everything's heightened.

(31:15):
As Steve said, one seventy five and in July is
a little different than one seventy five coming out of
the shoot, right, especially as you said, our eyes are
even more focused on production at first base. I honestly
think that that he's gonna that he's going to be
a he has to be. Like I said yesterday, him,

(31:36):
Christian Walker, Christian Walker, Jainer Diaz and Jordan Alvarez in
the middle light of the truth is if we get
it the way we want it, they all got to
be twenty five home runs or more at least our expectations, right,
It is, there's no doubt, and he'd be the fourth
on the list. But I think that he probably will.
But you got to have those. But you gotta have

(31:58):
guys that mash like that. Yeah, and a couple of
them more than that and you're done, like a ten
or fifteen more rights. That's where he's gonna live normally.
So I'm with you, and I just wonder in your
mind day off. Everybody gets one, but a day off
when you're going good as opposed to going bad, which
one hits worse? Oh, man, I'm going good, keep me in,

(32:21):
or man, I'm struggling, let me play through it, or
yeah I need a day off. Most guys will take
a day off. Okay, we're on a road trip. Catcher
caught the night before, We got a day game the
next day. Let's not run him out there, you know
what I'm saying. So with this, you would you be
offended if you were a player, and not even offended
for one day? But like it's pronounced more now, let
me play through it. Or I think competitors always want

(32:43):
to say no, I'll fight through this. What do you
think Christian Walker wants to do? And will one day
just sitting back watching be enough to turn it around
for it bats for another guy.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
I think that.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
I mean, you know, he's been in this game long enough,
he's enough for a professional that either of those scenarios
I think he'd be fine with. But if I'm rolling,
keep me rolling, man, I mean, oh, I agree with it.
And if I'm struggling, protect me from myself, because you know,
it's kind of like the second reference to Kelvin Sampson here.
I remember, once you know somebody you know, oh, keep shooting,

(33:17):
keep shooting. He goes, well, if you're a bad shooter, No,
I don't want you to keep shooting because you're a
bad shooter.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
Right right, But if you but let's reverse that.

Speaker 6 (33:25):
If if Steph Curry missed seven in a row, you're
going to tell him to shoot number eight, you're damn right, yeah, correct.
If you're Brett Farv and he's throwing picks, you know
Brett was a guy throw five and like, well, I'm
gonna take a shout and throw a six one If not,
because I might fit it in. Are you going to
tell his personality to back off? Probably not. You're going
to let him keep ripping it, right, But there is
that point in time, say, dude.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Just check the ball down. We don't need to throw
a sixth pick. Right.

Speaker 6 (33:49):
There's that feeling so with Christian Walker, and it's not
that big a deal. One day off, no big deal.
Could it turn around and the rest of it? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Or do you say, you know what, my man? Just
keep swinging that bat?

Speaker 6 (33:59):
And the question is for us from our naked eye,
are they seeing something where it's like he's swinging at
bad pitches there? At bats? I mean he's handcuffing himself.
There's something missing. Let's go get in the cage for
a day or two and just relax. Man, it's okay.
Or is that sitting a message of ooh, we're losing
faith early? Do you just let him play through it?
I think it's an interesting dynamic, right because I know

(34:20):
my personality would be.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
You said, take your day off.

Speaker 6 (34:25):
Not only do I want to play one hundred and
fifty five, I'm playing one hundred and sixty two. And
you say, well, Sean, would you really be like that? Well,
I can tell you my personality and work. I've got
like four months of vaca. I don't take vacation. It's
not a pad on the back it's just I want
to It's if I'm getting paid to play baseball. Yeah,
I put me in a lineup every day, and if
we need time off, I get even with the floors.
It's like I'm gonna be okay. I can walk to

(34:47):
the plate for a bats I need to. Now if
you're hampering the team and you're playing with a poll
d hamstring, I get it. But my personality would be
if I was Christian Walker, do you want to day off?

Speaker 2 (34:57):
Hell? No, I don't want to day off.

Speaker 6 (34:58):
Sure, I'll fight through this on I'll give you good
at bets. I know how to fix this and let's
get back to work. That doesn't mean you work harder
under the you know, into the stadium in the cage,
wearing yourself out, but just smarter and get rolling. So
I think it's an interesting dynamic because some personalities are saying, oh,
I'm good with it, and some would say I want
to fight you if you think you're going to set
me down when I'm struggling.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
But you're right.

Speaker 6 (35:20):
The one thing the manager's job is get you out
of your own way. Sometimes you just don't give them
the option. You're taking today off, relax, go hit in
the cave, take some VP or a.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
Matter of fact, don't take anything.

Speaker 6 (35:29):
Yeah, two sunflower seeds and sit over there, and if
we need you late in game to pinch it, well
we'll throw you in there. But it's interesting, dynamic how
how players different players would react to that.

Speaker 5 (35:39):
Yep, for sure, I want to be able to get
Christian Walker on the right track, and I'm sure Joe
Spot and everybody trying to make sure.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
That they can do that.

Speaker 5 (35:48):
All right, coming out next you know, the silent treatment sometimes,
well it might just be part of the game plan
that was in place over the weekend. We'll discuss that
right here. Sean Salisbury show.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
Let the celebration start war Sean.

Speaker 4 (36:04):
Salisbury to Sean Salisbury Show, Sean the silent treatment.

Speaker 5 (36:10):
You know, usually when you get the silent treatment, it's
a hey, or you know, is something bothering you?

Speaker 2 (36:17):
Are you upset?

Speaker 7 (36:18):
No?

Speaker 5 (36:19):
No, I'm fine, And then it's right before you're about
to go to sleep, it's actually, yeah, there is a problem.
It's like, can we have hashed this out earlier?

Speaker 2 (36:26):
You're talking about with the significant other? Uh huh.

Speaker 6 (36:29):
Well, whenever it's you know, something's up and they say,
oh no, we're fine, You're screwed.

Speaker 7 (36:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (36:34):
Yeah, it's worse than walking into a DS nuts joke.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Oh much worse. Yeah, because because you may not have
them anymore. Yeah, if you're an idiot, I was gonna.

Speaker 5 (36:43):
Say, you play your cards the wrong way, it's not
gonna go well. Well, the silent treatment was used on Sunday.
According to Rory McElroy's UH sports psychologist Bob Bob doctor
Bob Rotella.

Speaker 2 (36:56):
Yeah, I had no idea. I think i'd heard at
Bob's been on tour for a lot of years.

Speaker 6 (37:00):
Yeah, it's a lot of them. So he's I've met
him and he's a great guy. Met him years ago.
He's been doing this for a long time. And Rory
leaned on him before this and spend time with him
for the leading into Augusta and whether you like it
or not, to be able to have those peaks and valleys,
and they were from whole one, from a double bogey
to whole one to a mist putt on eighteen and

(37:23):
everything in between was is up and down around as
you'll ever see a guy. The string of emotions of
the extreme part of it all over the place and whatever,
I don't know what happened. But I can tell you this,
most people would have wilted after that missed because the
way it was the shot on thirteen that went into
Race Creek. You're like, how do you over especially when
you have those demons at that very place, at that

(37:47):
venue at golf course and regardless, but it may not
work for others. You know, people say, oh, who needs
a sports psychologist? That's what No, the truth is, it's
just somebody you know that maybe gives changes you're thinking
they used to be taboo. I'm just telling you. In
the a you said you had a sports psychologist, people
thought you were a wacko. And it's like talking about

(38:07):
mental health, right, Well you can't, well yeah you can.
You need somebody to lean on the same thing here.
There ain't nothing wrong with Rory Macro saying you may
be a friend you talk to a mentor.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
A psychologist just because they have the doctor's name on it.
A lot of those.

Speaker 6 (38:21):
It's not like you're sitting down laying on a couch
saying am I going to make a putt on eighteen?

Speaker 2 (38:24):
It's okay.

Speaker 6 (38:24):
When you get in this situation, think about this or
how you talk your way through it, right, you know,
I'm always intrigued with what they tell clients, right obviously,
that's you know, doctor client privilege, and they can tell
you if they want or not, but I'd ask. But somehow,
some way, whatever it was, Rory was able to settle
back in after the ups and downs of it and

(38:45):
still put the tournament away.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
So no problem. But doctor Rotel has been doing this
for a lot of years and.

Speaker 5 (38:49):
A lot of people thought that the silent treatment with
Bryson was about the whole PGA Live thing, all of
those things. But Rotella telling BBC didn't have anything to
do with Bryce, and that was the game plan all week.
We wanted to get lost in it. We didn't want
to pay attention to what everyone else was scoring or
shooting or swinging or you know, how far they were

(39:10):
hitting it. We just wanted Rory to play his game.
We saw Tiger used to do this and people thought, oh,
that's the killer instinctive Tiger.

Speaker 6 (39:16):
I was his mo, That's what it was. He wasn't
going to give you any insight to what his game
plan was. Now tis Tiger's a little more jovial now
on the course, but I can tell you this, if
he's playing against I don't know Phil, or give me
anybody else. And he was in contention again at a
major and they're coming down to stretch. Tiger's old school

(39:39):
mentality would kick in friend or no friend from holes
like twelve to eighteen. Guess what, my man. I don't
know if it was his best you know, I know
he and Roy or McElroy are close, or somebody that
he really likes. It's on his you know, indoor league
team or something. He may they may have a conversation.
But the Tiger Woods that we all know is you

(40:01):
understand when we tee off on one, this is I
love y'all. I'll hug you at the end, but I'm not.
I'm not rooting for you today. It's me versus you.
And if intimidation comes into play, guess what I'm gonna
use it. So the one thing about that and I
love and see they put a plan to work and
it worked. Can you imagine if I on whole fourteen he'd
just started to get deviate from it. Who knows if

(40:22):
he'd made the putt because you lose that grinding focus
that you and Rottel had been working on. So whatever
the game plan let's stick to it and make adjustments
as such along the way. But listen, I don't have
a problem if a guy's not best friends on the
golf course. I all listen. I'd rather have a guy
like that then, And I like to have fun. But
you know what, we're both trying to win the biggest
tournament of our life. I got stuff to think about.

(40:45):
I'll be your buddy after I got a problem, but
I'm trying to beat your brains in. And I really
don't have a problem with I mean, I enjoy guys
who like to fuzzy zeller, have fun and whistle.

Speaker 2 (40:54):
And enjoy it. That's okay. Justin Rose was grinding the
whole time too. He even said it after the round.
Is I wanted to be the bad guy, right?

Speaker 6 (41:02):
So, I mean, and those two were tight as could be,
Ryder Cup teammates and all that, But you understand that
in the competition to him, if you're playing against your mom,
it's like, mom, we'll see at the end of the tournament,
you'll be the first I hugg.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
But I gotta win.

Speaker 6 (41:14):
And in this case, and there is this, and I
saw it interesting that Bryson did a good job and
manipulate and I love bretton de Shamba. I do, and
I think you do too, Dan, I have a lot
of respect from Bryce. I like the way his personality
shifted to be fan friendly. And as you can tell,
there's a method to the maddest. Remember when he used
to be the long, hitting brash and people kind of
gave he and Kepka's battle and now they're friends on

(41:36):
the You know, is that he was easy.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
Like, oh, here's this brash wearing that goofy hat, and.

Speaker 6 (41:44):
Then all of a sudden he kind of makes a
shift with all of his TikTok stuff and it's cool
and the fan now he's become a easy to root
for coming down the stretch when when he's playing and
Rory had those same things going with him. But you know,
because people understanding the situation. If the situation wasn't like
it was and Bryson was on the PGA tour, he'd
have been the one getting rooted for. And you and

(42:05):
I both know that. But even then, while they're rooting
for him, there's still that battle. I don't have problem
with it, but Bryson. The one thing somebody said I
can't remember who said on an interview that Bryson Rory
is doing his thing. Bryson switched it, and he's the
one who discussed, Well, we didn't talk, and he's so
it did affect him. It got to him. It didn't

(42:26):
get to Rory. So, regardless of you like it or not,
as much as I liked the Shambo that he flipped
it to make it about him, Oh, we didn't talk.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
Listen and he said he was happy for Rory. Rory's good,
but he.

Speaker 6 (42:37):
Felt like now he had the game to go win
at Augusta meaning to Shambo.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
But whatever Rory did, it worked. He stayed in the
game playing didn't.

Speaker 6 (42:45):
And the truth is the guy who did talk about
it after was who Bryson. So guess who was thinking
about it while they were playing eighteen holes and go. So,
regardless of whether you like the way Rory went about it,
the gamesmanship of it, or the focus of it bothered
Bryce and more than it bothered Rory's, I'm telling you

(43:07):
there's a budding feud going there. There's a budding rivalry
going with those two, and therefore it will not be
the last time they're in the final grouping of a
big tournament. I'm just telling we've already had it twice
in majors in the last in less than a year.
So and if we need this, plus the fact that
while it lasts until they get together and merge, we
got live versus PGA tour, and don't kid yourself, we

(43:30):
need the rivalry right now as well without the guy
in the red shirt plan on Sunday who's won a
million tournaments and Tiger Woods.

Speaker 5 (43:36):
No doubt about it, and the viewership numbers on Sunday
would tell you exactly that is the case. Speaking of
the silent treatment, kind of continuing on this theme, if
you're trying to curry favor, this ain't the way to
do it.

Speaker 2 (43:48):
We'll talk about it right here. Sean Salisbury Show, KD
Houston two Houston, an iHeart radio station and the Rocket.

Speaker 4 (44:00):
This is Sports Talk seven ninety your home for your
home teams from the Parsons, Imagine Next Studios, Salisbury.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Old Verry Salisbury House. Did Okay, Let's do this.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
Sean Salisbury by the USC true longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury,
Dan MATTHEWSCU this is the Sewan Salisbury Show.

Speaker 5 (44:32):
Push it back twenty four hours so Dana Brown believe
for us. Some travel has him having to skip today,
but we'll get him tomorrow morning at nine point thirty
here on the Seawan Salisbury Show, speaking of the Astros
to nothing winners last night in Saint Louis, and the
Rockets know exactly who their opponent is, know thy enemy, Well,

(44:53):
they know it's the Golden State Warriors, and it's another
playoff series and that's going to get started on Sunday
eight thirty over at Toyota Center. Get into a little
bit of some news that happened up to.

Speaker 2 (45:05):
Our neighbors to the north yesterday.

Speaker 5 (45:07):
But first I want to get some of you in
on the phone lines what we were just talking about
in the last segment seven ninety. Let's start it off
with Brad once to wait and hear Brad, what's going on?

Speaker 8 (45:20):
Oh it's nice to you see you get a full
time gig.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Right, Well, thanks, buddy, I appreciate that.

Speaker 8 (45:26):
Yeah, with Shawn's blessings, I guess you got a full
time gig. I like that, man, because I've seen you
always spot here, spot there, do this here, do this there,
but finally got a good permanent gig. Anyway, Uh, you
know the Astros the last three what two or three
years they've gone after the thirty something year old first basement,

(45:51):
spent unbelievable money and wasted it pretty much. Uh, Dana Brown,
I was going to ask you all to ask him
if you today, but since he's not going to be
on till tomorrow, if you don't forget, why don't he
have Why don't he go after it? I think there's
only five in the next and the one hundred best baseball

(46:11):
players in the draft coming up? Why don't he go
after a young I know they had it, and they
don't even have a track record for going after a
first baseman. Why don't he go after a young big
guy he maybe he plays the outfield, and make him
a first baseman in the minor leagues and bring him

(46:32):
up and do it that way instead of going after
these accomplish or a firm for that sake, why don't
they let Descenzo play, not just a spot here or
in a spot there, because that's not gonna show us
whether he's good or not. Let him play. Sit Christian
Walker down for about three or four games in a row.

(46:53):
Let let Descenzo play three or four games in a row.
Because you're never gonna know. The way they're doing it now,
it's not work. And Walker, I know he's accomplished, but
maybe sit him down for a little while. Let's let
descend those show us what he can do. After about
two or three games in a row, maybe he needs
a chance to play a few games, because well, it's

(47:17):
both of them are failing. One's not getting any time,
the other one's not doing what he's supposed to do.
And uh, that's pretty much it I wanted to instead
of going about it the way they been going about it,
it's been a failure.

Speaker 6 (47:32):
Yeah, no, no, I feel you appreciate the call. I
understand the early returns on the thought of Christian Walker.
He's going to be your first baseman. Listen, I want
you and Brad makes good points, but I want you
to think how long they stuck with the braid when
he wasn't productive?

Speaker 2 (47:50):
Sure two years two years of it.

Speaker 6 (47:53):
So they're going to be patient and they're gonna and
Christian Walker at this stage of his career is better
than a bray you was at the stage he got here.
They're going to let him play through it now, whether
that means a day or two often that that part
and Brad's right, and to ask what young guy Descenzo
fits the mold. He's talking about, big guy who can
play a corner outfield position, left field, third base, corner infielder,

(48:16):
and who could play first base and has been over there.
If you were looking at a younger, if all of
a sudden Christian Walker said you know he was no
longer your first baseman, Descenzo would be a very I
don't know if easy he's the right word, but I
think relevant. That'd be a guy you'd say, well, it's
obvious that we can move him there and let him
get work as a young player. And I'm not so

(48:37):
sure that's out of the plan down the road, down
the road. But make no mistake about it, your first
baseman this year is going to be for the majority
of games fighting through it is Christian Walker. And if
you didn't learn anything about not Brad, any of us,
about the patients they had with a Bray, you Christian
Walker comes pretty highly regarded.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
He's going to be your first baseman.

Speaker 6 (48:58):
But whenever that day off is it Brad or you
were talking about or two, And he's exactly right about
the way to get a guy playing time is you've
got to play him to see the fruits of the labor.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
Give him more than four at bats, right.

Speaker 6 (49:12):
But the problem is, and it's been a problem with
this team in the past, is where you're going to
play him when you've paid. I mean, Walker's going to
get the run so for de Zenzo this year unless
somebody's hurt for one hundred games. The truth of the
matter is he's going to be a filling at third base.

Speaker 2 (49:27):
At some point.

Speaker 6 (49:28):
He's going to probably play left field in the game,
maybe he's going to play first base, maybe he'll DH
in a game, but as the lineup goes, you're not
going to see him in a lineup for fifteen twenty
straight days playing first base.

Speaker 2 (49:39):
And I love the kid. I think he's got a
great future.

Speaker 6 (49:41):
But Walker's going to get every opportunity to succeed and
or fail. And this isn't who Christian Walker is. It's
who he is today. It's not who he's going to
be at the end of the year.

Speaker 5 (49:52):
Well it's also you know, just looking up his monthly
splits all throughout his career, usually April and first off
two thirty three career guy. In the month of April,
his best months have been in June career two sixty
and in August is when he turns it on at
which that's something that you'd love to see because you're

(50:12):
gonna be in some tightly contested games in August career
two ninety nine hitter then, so.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
Yeah, it'll turn around.

Speaker 6 (50:19):
This you're seeing him at his at his worst right now,
but they are going to let him get right that.
You know this is going to happen.

Speaker 5 (50:28):
And I know I kind of opened up the possibility
of the day off where Brad was going days off,
which no, I'm not talking about days off. I'm saying
today with the natural day off tomorrow, it's a day
and it turns into two and then you get him
back on Friday and it's hey, all right, maybe we
need to make an adjustment we got in the lab.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
A good franchise is playing great baseball right now.

Speaker 5 (50:50):
Bingo in a franchise he knows well from playing in
the AO or National League West for so many years.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
So he'll come around. He'll come around.

Speaker 6 (50:58):
This is this is not the Christian Walker you're going
to see all year, although it's heightened because it's the
beginning of a season and he's new at a position
that people have been so disappointed with since well you
Ley left and the production at First Base.

Speaker 5 (51:14):
Yeah, no doubt about it. Real quick, let's squeeze in.
Bill wants to weigh in. Bill, Good morning, Hey, good morning, gentlemen.
The Bryson and the Rory thing is amusing to.

Speaker 11 (51:24):
Me because fifteen twenty years ago, in professional golf, we
would not have cared what the leaders were talking about
or may have talked about or not talked about on
a golf course. That's a product of our digital information.
Gotta know society now that nobody cared. You think Tiger
would's talk to guys in the golf course.

Speaker 6 (51:45):
No, this isn't a leisure round drinking beer with your
buddies and smoking a cigar.

Speaker 11 (51:49):
Oh this is this isn't This isn't the Saturday scramble.
You know, four guys, And you know, I never thought
about what guys interact on the golf course during the
course of a round, whether it's the Hilton Head or
whether it's the Masters of the US Open.

Speaker 2 (52:07):
And I guess maybe just never.

Speaker 11 (52:10):
I never thought of it because the way golfers so
austere and so closeted, and these guys have always been
kind of rigid looking to the rest of us, normal people,
normal golfers. Uh, they were just on a different level
and did different things in different ways and didn't really
communicate that way.

Speaker 2 (52:27):
During a round.

Speaker 11 (52:28):
So that's why I think today the conversation is interesting
because that's just kind of a mirror.

Speaker 7 (52:34):
Of where we are as culture now in sports. And
what did they say to each other?

Speaker 3 (52:38):
What did they say?

Speaker 6 (52:39):
Yeah, Well, it's like your name, you know, you move
in and you say, they say, well, how are your names?

Speaker 2 (52:43):
Well, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (52:43):
I haven't met him and they lived next trive and
talk to him for a year. Yeah, right, it's which
is I'm just telling you Bill, you know this and
thanks for the call.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
Bill.

Speaker 6 (52:53):
Is you did know all your neighbors' names forty years ago?
You did? It was part and parcel to now it's
like your neighbor is invasive on you just because they
live there and they haven't done anything wrong.

Speaker 2 (53:08):
Right, So I didn't ask you to come over here.
What do you do it?

Speaker 6 (53:10):
And people do it all the time, you know, you
see it. You'll pull in the neighbor pools in their
driving and you're trying to get out of your car
quicker at times because or they are because you don't
want to not that you're mad at them, you don't dislike.
You just don't want to have the conversation sometimes, right,
But it used to be everybody out in front. How
many times do you see kids playing in the street
these days? Minimal? Minimal certain neighborhoods, but minimal. And you

(53:30):
just don't You go up and down my street and
I'd like to think I'm fair. I mean, I know
my neighbor's next door. They're great people both sides, sure,
but I don't know many because they have kids in
our yard. It's like I don't know many more people's
name and it's not but it's not bothering me either.
Does that make sense?

Speaker 2 (53:48):
Sure?

Speaker 6 (53:49):
And if you're your job grinding on a sales call,
you're not overly friendly to your other salesperson that you're
trying to compete. I mean you're trying to you're not
competing against, but you know you're trying to get your
bonuses and all that. It's the same thing here. I mean,
we'll go play golf when you're in a betting game
with your buddies or you're in a tournament and your

(54:09):
buddy's on another hole just having fun. You still and
you start to tell me you don't start to get
into the competitive mode, like oh okay, the beer wore off.
Now it's like this dude, I bet him five hundred bucks.
You start to grind.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
So I listen.

Speaker 6 (54:23):
I know that being buddies, But is it really that
big a deal. When you're walking down the fare you
got your caddy, talk to him. He's your psychologist on
the course. Don't don't worry about me. So I mean,
I love to do it because some people. Matter of fact,
you love to do that with a guy who's such
a grinder. You want to talk to him. So he's
like he gets off his game. He's like, oh he's
such a grinder. Let me talk to him. See if

(54:44):
I can get him thinking about something else. But I
don't have a problem. It telled me that Tiger and
Rory were locked in, locked in, and some people just lead.
Trevino ain't playing that way. He's talking and doing it
all and keep talking. That's how he takes away the pressure.
Everybody has their own way. So yeah, it's golf is
like the neighbor. You just okay, they're there. But I

(55:05):
like my neighbors. But in most cases, most people don't
even know their neighbor's last name. Oh no, not even close.

Speaker 5 (55:11):
And I don't even remember I've I've met my you know,
one of our neighbors that I see all the time.
But uh, I'm a big wave guy. Oh yeah, and
I'm terrible with names, so I apologize for that. But
but yeah, I mean, you know, it's not it's not
not being friendly.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
It's just, hey, man, I got things to.

Speaker 6 (55:27):
Do, and you do too, And didn't they have things
to do in the eighteen final to the final grouping. Yeah,
it's never been abot I matter of fact, it just
tells me that they're charging. And you know that that
locked in feeling in golf. If you're not focused on that,
it's that even though the ball's not moving and nobody's
hitting you, m M, it's a pretty tough thing to do.
I'm throwing the hammers. The hammers will be thrown. Oh yeah, yeah,

(55:51):
there's no doubt any and you will not decline. You
will accept that's the that's the competitive nature of this game.
That's how we're playing this game, no doubt. So I
have I don't have any issue. But you know, I
know we all want buddies. But you know what they'll say.
If you're talking into jovial and you're smiling, doesn't mean
enough to you. Right, Yeah, so you can't win. Oh man,

(56:11):
all this chatter? Is he from everyone's friend? And he
hits a snap hook and then announcer says, man, a
lot of chatter.

Speaker 2 (56:17):
They are they unfocused? Is he not dialed in? Yeah?
So you can't win. Yep, you can't win.

Speaker 6 (56:22):
You can acknowledge them on the first t shake their hand,
go play your golf, and then after if you like them.
If you don't, so what, take the hat off and
we'll shop. If you're my friend, I'll hug you in
justin Rose, I have a beer with you. If you're not,
go back to the Lift Tour, go play your game.
All players, I'll see you again.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
Yeah, not that big adea. You don't need, you don't have.

Speaker 6 (56:39):
Just because one hundred and fifty six guys are in
the tournament doesn't mean you have to buddy up with
all of them.

Speaker 2 (56:43):
No, no, not even close.

Speaker 6 (56:45):
Out of fact, if you do, you're probably stupid well
and too many people know your game plan.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
You want to be the one.

Speaker 5 (56:50):
At the end, not the last one, and Rory definitely
not the last one. On Sunday. All right, it's history
was made this week, but it seems like nobody asked
for it. We'll discuss right here Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
J T. Barrel's his way to the basket. I'm the
window in hey is Jay? Shawn Tate?

Speaker 5 (57:09):
Back to the Shawn Salisbury Show, Ky on Sports Talk
seven ninety Black.

Speaker 10 (57:17):
Ship Station of your Rockets.

Speaker 2 (57:23):
All right, Sean, what are you hearing out theres now?
The Salisbury takeouts? Salsbury takeout on the Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 5 (57:34):
Indeed it is Sastro is winning yesterday to nothing over
the Cardinals, finishing up that series Today. Rockets get the
Warriors in for Game one of the Western Conference playoffs
on Sunday eight thirty tip over at Toyota Center, and
the NFL Draft a week from tomorrow from being upon us. Sean,

(57:54):
did you see that perceived history was made a couple
of days ago when Katy Perry, Gail King, Lauren Sanchez,
Amanda Win and Aisha bo boarded the Blue Origin New
Shepherd spacecraft and went up in the space for a
solid eleven minutes from ground to ground. Yes, eleven minutes

(58:19):
is how long they were up there, and it got
so far to the points of Katy Perry taking this
the complete way that people like Katy Perry would take it,
you know, out of touch and you know, just thinking
that everything they do is the most important thing in
the world. It's it's it's you know, all this is groundbreaking,
this is historic, it's all of these different things. Apparently

(58:40):
when they got to the rich right right exactly, you know,
because we're creating history here, that's what we're doing. Did
they have to plan for this? I mean maybe I
think you have to go through like basic amounts of
it before. Is that the FAA or whoever it is
allows you to actually go up in the space because

(59:01):
I mean, you know, it's really is the final frontier.

Speaker 6 (59:04):
I mean it's pretty cool. Was a long trip, but
it's pretty cool. Yeah, I mean, I'd do it. It's
pretty cool, but I'm not either dating or I don't
have enough pull with the rich folk.

Speaker 5 (59:14):
Like when Jeff Bezos got out of the spacecraft that
he puts on the the cowboy hat.

Speaker 2 (59:19):
It's just like you don't yeah, yeah, a very rich dork. Yeah,
oh he's got that. Usually the dorks do become really rich.

Speaker 6 (59:27):
Yeah, so that's a good on them. But yeah, they
they got to do it. But it's I don't know,
they're not We're not labeled them. We have labeled them
heroes have.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
Oh that's that's the heroes. So brave. That's always my favorit.
This person they shout up wearing a T shirt. Oh
so brave. No, they put on a T shirt. That's
what they did. They made it about them heroes.

Speaker 7 (59:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (59:52):
Bill Perr has a comedic bit about that everybody's a
hero now, oh yeah, especially I mean even the ones
that are criminals.

Speaker 4 (01:00:01):
Hero.

Speaker 6 (01:00:02):
Hero, Hey you got any hash oil? Sure, take it
into Russia. Bring you home because they don't want you
to spend nine years in Russian prison.

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
Hero.

Speaker 6 (01:00:13):
Hero stab a person in the chest here a hero? Yeah, hero, Yeah,
go to space for eleven minutes. Yeah on a rich
guys wim hero hero.

Speaker 7 (01:00:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:28):
Not everybody saw it that way.

Speaker 5 (01:00:30):
Emily Radakowski, you know she's the actress, right, actress, model, model, supermodel,
and she was an entourage the movie all of that
she waged in Look at the Stay of the World
and think about how many resources putting into these women
going to space for what? And it continues. Olivia Wilde

(01:00:50):
billion dollars brought some good memes. I guess also Olivia
mon is going that's it Mone and and yeah yeah, yeah,
one one goes wild and the other one, well, Olivia Munn,
what are they doing? I know this probably isn't the
cool thing to say, but there are so many other

(01:01:10):
things that are so much more important in the world
right now. And it even got to a point where
what was it. Katy Perry, I guess on her Twitter
account had said something about loving the planet or something
of the sort that Wendy's who has a great Twitter account.

(01:01:31):
They responded with, can we send her back?

Speaker 6 (01:01:35):
Oh yeah, she's got a little space cadet in her
We talking about Katy Perry.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
Yeah here, I'm twofold on this. I'm not a fence
center on much.

Speaker 4 (01:01:45):
No.

Speaker 8 (01:01:46):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
Do I consider them heroes, I absolutely don't.

Speaker 6 (01:01:52):
I think it's people that hung around the right rich
people and are rich enough to be able to get
on board and have the yes bingo. But the other
side of me, we got to quit telling people how
to spend their money. Yeah, we we we we just
to I understand what we want, I think to myself,
and I know they're donating a lot of money to charity,

(01:02:12):
But on the surface, you think, Bezos musk all the
billionaires of the world that if that you could, you
could end homeless with one check between the three of you,
without it even making a DBT on in the in
their wallet. And I know that all sounds good, But

(01:02:33):
I will go back to Olivia mont and Olivia Wilde
and Radakowski, and I'll ask you this. You ever been
on a first class flight to Europe because you wanted
to spend your money, or got a private plane with
you and your guy, or you and your besties and
gone and spent money, and you say, man, that was
a one hundred thousand dollars trip. Should they come back

(01:02:55):
Lauren Sanchez because she happens to be, you know, with
Jeff Bezos, and say, well, you could to spend that
one hundred thousand dollars on putting a down payment on
somebody's home.

Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
I get what we should like, you know, the wark
dones of helping home.

Speaker 6 (01:03:07):
And I know a lot of these people do not
only elbow, grease and go help with their time, But
I know that they go and spend their money on
other charities. We just think they should spend all their
money that every time they do something fun. Yet we
can go spend our money and nobody questions it and say, well,
you could change the world.

Speaker 2 (01:03:24):
Yeah you could, but most people aren't. Okay.

Speaker 6 (01:03:28):
A lot of times rich people got rich because they
kept their money. Okay, And if they want to spend
a billion dollars of their money, I know it's paying
the ass may not.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
Good for the environment. They think what they could have
done a lot of things.

Speaker 6 (01:03:38):
Yes, there are a lot of things, but there's also
a lot of things more important than Olivia.

Speaker 2 (01:03:42):
Mund or wild going and making a movie. What are
you doing?

Speaker 6 (01:03:46):
Well, why are you making a movie that took six months?
You could have been paying attention to your kids, or
you could have gone on and gone on a mission
trip and built homes. So you get my point. I
see both sides, but listen, I didn't even watch it,
and I don't care good on them because if somebody
came to you and I said you want to go,
I don't know if you'd go because you said you're
not really fond of that stuff. I'd go for eleven minutes.

(01:04:07):
I'd be a little nervous just because this is uncharted
for me. I'd do it if some rich person wants
to take me. I ain't paying for it, but yet
I'd go. And I'm not going to say, oh, how frivolous,
because he may have donated a billion dollars somewhere else
and I'm sure if we look over that they have so.
But we just think rich people, Oh, take it from them,

(01:04:27):
and they're supposed to change the world. It's a great
idea because I think, man, if you had that money,
what would you do? And I think you'd like to
hope that maybe you supplied water for a third world
country or took care of the homeless. And novel concept
are built a home or tiny houses in a community,
bought one hundred acres, built for our military or for

(01:04:48):
responders that come back and military that come back and
get treated poorly.

Speaker 2 (01:04:52):
Do you stick?

Speaker 6 (01:04:53):
Do you have homes for them to live in and
communities for them, just like people have communities for different
religions and stuff. You could have a commute for them
where they could just be together. Right, whatever it is,
we all want to spend our money. We think, man,
it's the right thing to do. But we got to
quit telling a big well how dare you? And then
two weeks later you're on a private flight going and
doing something because some rich guy or girl invited you. Yeah,

(01:05:15):
so I understand the concept of us telling somebody muskt well,
how dare you? You know, do you realize what you
could do with housing or homeless or what? Of course,
and I know they do a lot of it, but
we seem to tell a billionaire who's earned their money
how to spend it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:32):
You can't drive that truck.

Speaker 6 (01:05:34):
Yeah, I actually can. If you're a billionaire, you can
drive whatever you want. So we have this self righteous
oh my gosh, look at me. Well there's more. Yeah,
there's more important things on and more important things going
on in some of those people that made a comment
some of their crappy ass movies too, So you can
look at it any way you want. We got to
quit telling them because no matter how much you tell
a guy like bezos are going to spend their money

(01:05:54):
in a certain place, They're going to spend it exactly
where they want to.

Speaker 5 (01:05:58):
There's the old thing. That's the fun in having fu money.
If you can't tell people f you you can go listen,
give all and they're not giving away forty billion. A
lot of them are given to charity, but they're not.
That's their money. They're billionaires because they're really good with money. Right,
that's how this goes strength. But as far be it
from me said, how dare that guy not help the homeless?

(01:06:20):
If your ability, you're there there. Helping the homeless doesn't
always mean giving them money. Helping the homeless may mean
bringing them a meal. Purpose open it right?

Speaker 6 (01:06:30):
What so I just when people preach and tell them,
hold you all that money, you could change the world
for good. Well may maybe they have donated five hundred
million dollars and this one time they want to have
frivolous opportunity to go do it.

Speaker 2 (01:06:44):
Well, it didn't. There's no hero here.

Speaker 6 (01:06:46):
It was a fun, stupid pub pr thing that they
went up in space for eleven minutes, came back. Somebody
spend a billion dollars. It ain't my money. Yes, you
could have spent it on the homeless, sure you could have.
But maybe they spend another billion somewhere on the homeless.
So their responsibility is not to make sure that you're
happy and you approve of their trip. Olivia mund Olivia Wilde,

(01:07:08):
and Radakowski. I understand, we all do, but it's like,
look at me. You know what, it was a frivolous
billion dollar spend, But bezos can spend a billion dollars
like you'd spend a dime.

Speaker 5 (01:07:18):
This is why I tell people all the time, Sean,
don't simp for politicians, for actors, actresses, any of these people.
Thinking that they have your best interest at heart, they
will always disappoint.

Speaker 6 (01:07:29):
Right, self righteous and hypocritical crap. Because if you're gonna
get mad at somebody doing something frivolous, then I would
encourage you never to hop on a private plane again
if you're Olivia Month. Okay, so they just your million
is their billions? What about your carbon footprints?

Speaker 7 (01:07:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:07:46):
Instead of instead of doing that, yeah exactly, instead of doing.

Speaker 6 (01:07:49):
That on Twitter, shouldn't you get off your Twitter and
drive down the street and see who needs a burger?
Sure after you rightly, exactly my point. So we always
do it. I'm not telling bezels from them how to
spend their money, is it? But to label them a hero,
then I'd go all and say hero my ass. Okay,
they didn't change the world. They didn't do anything and
one had fun that most of us would think would

(01:08:10):
be cool. That we haven't got a billion dollars to
spend to do it. Okay, but I'm not telling Bezels
how to spend his money. I'm sure he does plenty
of charity worker anybody else who spent their money there.
They just you know, just so we're saying, if Emily,
I mean, if Olivia Munn and her guy, they were
given the opportunity, if she was into it that, if
she went, is it frivolous still and should they do

(01:08:31):
something else? Or is it just because she knew the
right billionaire m Yeah, it's a lot of self righteous people.

Speaker 2 (01:08:37):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:08:37):
Well, it kind of reminds me of the old Mike
Judge show Silicon Valley, and he used to make fun
of the the rally cry of Silicon Valley, which was
we want to make the world a better place, like
kind of just pointing out the arrogance of you honestly
think you're going to make the world a better place.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
That's cute. That's that's nice, that's nice, a better place.
We also want to be billionaires doing well.

Speaker 5 (01:08:57):
Of course, of course cake and eating it too. That's
the way that most people want it. Speaking of exactly
fitting into.

Speaker 6 (01:09:04):
The Microsoft yeah, billionaires to do it there, Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah for sure.

Speaker 5 (01:09:08):
Speaking of you know cake and eating it too well,
somebody in sports wanted that yesterday and I don't think
it went well.

(01:17:16):
Conference playoffs coming up on Sunday against the Golden State Warriors.

Speaker 2 (01:17:20):
Biscuit wants to talk to that biscuit. What's up, buddy?

Speaker 7 (01:17:23):
Hey, what's up? My brothers? Hey day for I get
to my rockets.

Speaker 12 (01:17:27):
Take man, you guys were talking earlier Sean and and
I may I must be one of those self righteous
people to chime. But I do question some of the
people that have the fine answers that don't give, you know,
I mean the Bible talks about a pair above the rich.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
Man given and then the widow gives, and he's more.

Speaker 12 (01:17:46):
Impressed with what the widow gave because she gave more
of what she had than the other person.

Speaker 7 (01:17:51):
You know.

Speaker 6 (01:17:51):
So oh yeah, no, no, no, no, They said, you're
not self righteous at all, And then me even saying
I'm with you. You know, I can remember how when
I when I took in a homeless man for a
couple of years out changed my life forgetting what had
changed changed my one percent with you? My point is,
are the self righteous other millionaires that say how dare
them go? And then you turn around and you're flying

(01:18:13):
across the world on a private jet because you're you know,
your your wife or husband or significant other or buddy
has that money or you have? Right, I'm not talking
about the you and I s of the world who
care and the rest of it. But hey, would it
be nice if you say, man, you could have done
something else of that money, which I'm sure they do
plenty with their money. That that's how you being self righteous.
That's you be in common sense and trying to change

(01:18:35):
the world the right way, and they may be changing
it some other way that we don't see because people
that brag about charity probably don't need to a lot
of working in silence, right, But yeah, I'm talking about
the one that questions and then does the exact same thing,
you know what I mean, biscus, that's the hypocritical, self
righteous one that says, how dare you ruin the environment?

(01:18:56):
And then they got a private plane? Right, that's my
favorite one. That's the ones I I'm not talking about
guys like you because I'm with you, like that felt frivolous.
But it's his money, I guess, or their money, so
they do. Why would you talk about Leonardo DiCaprio.

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
You go, how dare you do that? By the way,
how's your G eight hundred?

Speaker 7 (01:19:14):
Do it?

Speaker 8 (01:19:14):
Right?

Speaker 12 (01:19:14):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:19:15):
Yeah? Like my boat. I'm with you.

Speaker 6 (01:19:17):
You ain't lying, biscuit. It'd be nice to have that
money this way. It'd be nice to have the billions
to do what I wanted with it. And I think
making a difference would be at one of the top
priorities if I could, right, Yeah, that kind of right,
if I could, yep.

Speaker 12 (01:19:29):
Yeah, And I'm man, I I'm I'm that neighbor man.
I know, I try to get to know all my
you know, like you said, I try to delivery. I'm
in the Brown Army.

Speaker 8 (01:19:37):
Man.

Speaker 12 (01:19:38):
You'd be amazed how people, you know, if I missed
delivery package. I remember one time I missed delivered the package.
It was medicine, right, and I was like one house
one house off right. It was on Friday, and they
called in. I had to go on Monday get the
package from them medicine now and walk you know, thirty

(01:19:59):
feet and give it to another.

Speaker 2 (01:20:02):
Yeah, well, why didn't Meg go over there and get it.

Speaker 6 (01:20:05):
That happens at my house all the time, where like
forty six and forty eight or did they don't or whatever,
fifty four and fifty five they delivered. I mean it's
happened a hundred times. I ain't gonna chase the guy, right,
It's like, man, could you just at least read it once?

Speaker 2 (01:20:16):
Are? But oh it's next.

Speaker 6 (01:20:18):
Door, Well, I'm gonna make me drive an hour to
come and get byed where I could want normally, would
I do is take it to the people's address that
actually get it. And so if it is medisine, you'd
think I'd like that right away. I'm not waiting three
days and then having my guy come back and delivered
so I can either chew his ass or be dude.
I'm with you and I biscuit. If I was gonna
say one person, I said, I'll bet you if he's

(01:20:40):
out there in the yard working in the yard. So
i'msa said, I I'll bet your biscuit is a he
knows his neighbors like twenty of them's names.

Speaker 2 (01:20:48):
That seems like you, biscuit, which is a.

Speaker 6 (01:20:49):
Good thing if people the other type of neighbor I want,
because you and I'd be over each other's fence having
a cold beer some whiskey talking about just how the
suck that happened or the good stuff that happened in
the sporting event.

Speaker 2 (01:21:01):
I am with you one hundred percent.

Speaker 12 (01:21:03):
Well, Sean the Bible says, love that neighbor.

Speaker 7 (01:21:06):
Man, that's me.

Speaker 12 (01:21:07):
You know that I try to follow.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
You're easy. You're easy to like. Ma, Man, you are
easy to like, that's for sure.

Speaker 8 (01:21:14):
Get into the Rockets.

Speaker 12 (01:21:15):
Man in that Golden State game last night. Man to me,
I've seen some things.

Speaker 7 (01:21:20):
That the Rockets can exploit.

Speaker 12 (01:21:21):
Man, Golden State is off inside, yes, now, Eatie, he
couldn't take advantage of it. But sing Goon, I'm looking
at San Goon. This man, he should be able to dominate.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
Man.

Speaker 12 (01:21:32):
They have no inside defense at all. And if you
just attack inside and keep going at Raymond and Jimmy
Butler and get them in foul trouble, go to State,
be in trouble.

Speaker 7 (01:21:43):
I'm not so shot to attack him.

Speaker 2 (01:21:44):
Yeah, I'm not so sure that Shan Gun doesn't come
out of this as the key to the whole series.

Speaker 6 (01:21:48):
Agreed, Yeah, yeah, Bell, Okay, Bisc's he's right, Biscuit. We
had to get to Burke, we got to get the break,
but he's right now. They got rim protected. That the
ability to defend down on the low block he's talking about,
don't live by the long rang jump shot.

Speaker 2 (01:22:01):
And that's what they did.

Speaker 6 (01:22:02):
That's exactly right, and shin Gun should be not only
big in this one, but has a chance to be
big in the entire role of it. And by the way, Biscuit,
don't you dare deliver my package to somebody?

Speaker 2 (01:22:10):
I woul kidding. If you did, I'd just say, hey, brother,
you have to come back and we'll catch you next time.
I'll walk over a day.

Speaker 5 (01:22:15):
I mean, if nothing else, I'll do the you know,
if they do answer the door, hey, I'm Dan two
houses down, this was delivered to me here it's yours,
or even.

Speaker 6 (01:22:24):
Get on their thing and and I stick it on
their front door and leave them, or knock on the
door or just leave it there.

Speaker 5 (01:22:29):
Or in the age of most people have a ring doorbell,
they don't even have to come to the door. I
could just be like, hey, accidentally delivered you know, I'm
Dan a couple of houses down here, you go right,
take care?

Speaker 6 (01:22:39):
Yeah, exactly. Instead of stealing it, you're delivering it. Oh no,
that biscuit, I would have you talk about a thankless gig.

Speaker 2 (01:22:45):
You want it?

Speaker 6 (01:22:45):
They're always on time, yeah, And if it's not, it's
the driver's fault, even though it might have been in
the distribution center.

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
And secondly, okay, you're read it wrong. Oh, Holden's all
the time. How dare them? He's got like a thousand
of them a day. You can't get them all right? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:22:56):
And they got to get in out a truck four
hundred thousand times throughout a week. Yeah, much respect to
our truckers. And I put Biscuit in that as sure
as a you know, working for the you know what
what can Brown do for you? And Biscuits one of
our favorites man, But he I can picture him being
that the good neighbor that, oh you need something, you
need a ride, need this talk in sports? Yeah, and

(01:23:18):
I would imagine that Biscuit's really good at like getting
the group together and making sure that everybody that's done right.
It's a glue guy, yeh. People pay big time from
kids all the way up to adults.

Speaker 2 (01:23:29):
For sure. Not a helicopter guy, but knows what's going on, right,
My type of guy. That's a good dude for sure.
For sure.

Speaker 5 (01:23:35):
Be safe on those roads out there, brother, you know it,
you know it. We always appreciate Biscuit, all right. It's
a storyline in this league that just won't go away.
It's too juicy. We'll talk about it.

This is Sports Talk seven ninety from the Arsons and

Salsbury Salisbury.

Speaker 2 (01:24:11):
Okay, let's do this. Sewan Salisbury.

Speaker 3 (01:24:16):
To usc troupe, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 4 (01:24:18):
Dan matthewscuse. This is the Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 5 (01:24:27):
Astros back at it this afternoon against the Cardinals twelve fifteen.
First pitch were now Blanco against Stephen Matt's Rockets. No,
it is the Golden State Warriors in the first round
of the Western Conference playoffs and we're a week away
from the NFL Draft. Texans GM Nicosio going to meet
with the media a little bit later on today. Speaking

(01:24:48):
of meeting with the media, Sean, So, I think we
can agree that Nico Harrison, the Dallas Mavericks GM not
very popular right now.

Speaker 6 (01:24:58):
It's the way it appears and the Mavericks, what if
he was given the mandate from the owner. Excuse me,
don't think that they don't want Why they bought it, casinos,
you know, that's part of the ownership what they do.
So to clear out some opportunity and to do the thing.
That's another story. But yeah, sometimes it's not the GM's decision.

(01:25:19):
But if it was his decision solely, they got hammered
on the trade. But like it or not, no matter
if it is somebody else's idea, you're the one who's
gonna wear it. That's exactly that's the way it goes.
And even if it's guilt by association, you're the one.
Your name's on it. Even though if you didn't make
the final decision, you are the GM. Yeah, I mean
you took the job for a reason. So the story

(01:25:40):
of yesterday was that he and team CEO Rick Weltz
met with a select group of media that were not
allowed to use cameras or recorders, so it was a
closed door session with them and you know, having them
on the record, and some thing's kind of you know,
coming out as the day went on. But Harrison, when

(01:26:02):
being asked about the trade, said, no regrets select group
of media. Okay, so I mean you do have credential
media there. But then that also leads to another thing
that we can get into in a second. No regrets
on the trade. Part of my job is do the
best thing for the Mavericks, not only today but also
in the future. Some decisions that I'm going to make
are going to be unpopular. That's my job. I have

(01:26:23):
to stand up by it.

Speaker 5 (01:26:25):
And then Harrison continuing, the beauty of Dallas is a
passionate fan base. For us to reach our goals, we
need that fan base. Well, you've got a funny way
of showing that for everything that you've done. They're not
channing fire Nico in the arena because you're misunderstood. They're
chanting it because, well, you haven't really been one hundred
percent transparent about this. Number one and number two. I mean,

(01:26:46):
they're not the only ones who were dumbfounded by this deal.
I remember waking up on that Sunday and being like,
wait a minute, I'm not reading this right am. I
like somebody got traded there to team up with Luca,
not the other way around. If you were a Laker
fan and you saw the like I am. If you
were a Laker fan and you saw it, you would

(01:27:08):
just like you Even if you're not a fan, look
around and say I grew up with the Lakers.

Speaker 6 (01:27:12):
That's what I'm talking about, right hard. It's easy to
root for the Rockets now living here and being a
part of it and being on a flagship. But that's
why I've grown up my whole life with There's still
things about them. The Dear take me and that's fine.
But when this trade went down as a Laker, for
the first thing I thought is the Dallas can't be
that dumb.

Speaker 2 (01:27:30):
There's no way they did this.

Speaker 6 (01:27:31):
I thought it was I thought it was a bit
of a joke, Like you said, where's the other pieces
to this? If you're a and even the Lakers, there's
no way in that front office they didn't say it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:41):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 6 (01:27:42):
They actually agreed to. Yeah, when they make that offer,
it's not a matter of, oh, let us mull it over.

Speaker 2 (01:27:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:27:50):
That's the member of Brad Pitt when he's playing Billy
Bean and he get this when he's going through getting
it and.

Speaker 2 (01:27:57):
Hang out.

Speaker 12 (01:27:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:27:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:27:58):
He keeps talking to a different g Hey wants this
Dombrowski or what you got? He's making moves right, and
then finally gets one of you. He's got guys on
the phone, get him off. He hangs up on a
guy says he'll call back, watch and he calls back
and you get the deal done and then he hangs
up quickly moving it. It's like when you hang up,
you're like, oh my gosh, if you feel like you
fleeced him, right, that's exactly how the Lakers had to

(01:28:19):
feel on the same Okay, what's the joke here? Where's
the iff for the butt coming?

Speaker 8 (01:28:23):
Right?

Speaker 6 (01:28:23):
It didn't and here we are. That's not say Anthony Davison,
good player. The problem is Anthony Davis even gonna play much?

Speaker 5 (01:28:29):
You think with Nico and Jason Kidd, there was a
little bit of the Carlos Penia scenario here. You can't
play payn yet first base tonight. Look, I'm not gonna
go round for a round with you on this. He
plays for Detroit, now, yes he's not. Yeah, yeah, you
can't play that exchange is awesome, and you're not gonna
do this with you. You know Lucas is dressing out

(01:28:50):
against the Bucks. Well, that's because he plays for the Lakers.

Speaker 6 (01:28:53):
Now, lay Hadiburg, would you, yeah, right, right exactly, So, yeah,
it was He's got to put it this way, he's
got a lot of fixing to.

Speaker 2 (01:29:01):
Do to gain trust back in Dallas.

Speaker 5 (01:29:04):
And then the other part of it that I that
I mentioned with the select group of media. All right,
how many people do you think that say, I don't
know teams here in town? For any given team have credentialed.

Speaker 2 (01:29:18):
In town? I have fifty. Okay, I wasn't looking for.

Speaker 5 (01:29:22):
An exact number, but like the whole point is, then
why are you credentialing all these other people if you
straight up tell them they don't matter enough to be
in this, Because that's what I take from. You know,
teams will do this every once in a while, and
then it's like, all right, well why would Why wouldn't
this group included?

Speaker 6 (01:29:38):
Why why wouldn't Why was the people outside of that
special group of media? Does that mean the other ones
you're not giving stories to that your favorite? What's the
reasoning here? I always say this, it's like a players
only meeting. Yeah, well, they're the coaches with you, the
players only?

Speaker 2 (01:29:54):
What does that mean?

Speaker 6 (01:29:55):
You're if I was a coach, first thing you're thinking
about is they're here to bitch about us, right, and
what they're done, like game plans. They know like what's
going on or right or if you're and if you're
a player in there, you know, what's your first thing
you think about if you're the one when they're talking
I've been in them and you're the and there's two
or three players that maybe one showed up late, maybe
one had a bad game, and they start mentioning stuff
without mentioning names. You know, they're talking to you or

(01:30:17):
the flashing knee on side, and so what do guys
tendency to get defensive and react?

Speaker 7 (01:30:20):
Right?

Speaker 6 (01:30:21):
Yeah, and you come out of there, you're more piston
when you went in there. It's like wait a second. Now,
so when they're given the players only, why can't the
coaches be in there there around it every day you
got let's let's communicate. It's the same thing here. If
you're the person that didn't get invited. Now, aren't you thinking, well,
what's the problem here, Well, it's like they don't respect
my work.

Speaker 5 (01:30:39):
It's like an episode of Bar Rescue, you know, where
John Taffer was dealing with multiple owners. Yeah, and then
he brought up the concept of a hostile takeover.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
Right there, you go that that's exactly right.

Speaker 6 (01:30:51):
So I don't know what you gain if you're trying
to be a pr friend of people and then say
well ten of you can come in with the other
fifty of you that are creditched. You're not welcome in
this meeting.

Speaker 5 (01:31:02):
And another thing that this tells me, like, are you
really that sensitive that, Oh no, here's the stipulations of
why we're going to do it.

Speaker 2 (01:31:09):
Then you can't be an executive.

Speaker 5 (01:31:11):
I'm sorry you can't because I mean, yes, I understand
there's certain relationships with certain people, that's fine. But if
you want to put this in a box, and a
lot of times, a lot of these teams are reactionary,
they're not proactive, and that's what leads to situations like this.
Just throw a press conference, man, just throw it, and
then you know what usually happens in those press conferences.

Speaker 2 (01:31:31):
I've been in them.

Speaker 5 (01:31:32):
All right, guys, we're gonna address it today and then
after this we're done. Like we're moving on from this.
After this, you ask any questions, it's not going to
be met. Kindly, just go ahead and get them out now.
Then it's out there, it's done, it's over with. I'm
not sure that the fire and ECO chance stop next season,
but like you just now created more problems for yourself
because there's still more answers, there's still more questions out

(01:31:54):
there than enough answers that have been given.

Speaker 6 (01:31:56):
There is absolutely no question about that. Questions, There no
question about that. If you're and if you're on the outside,
now you go in. If you didn't get invited that,
why aren't you looking around saying, oh, this is how
we're playing it?

Speaker 2 (01:32:09):
Mm hmm. I mean, like you said, you don't have
to have you don't have to take questions. If they
want to be in there, let them all be privy
to it. Right with you.

Speaker 6 (01:32:16):
We're not asking questions, So I just you're not going
to be pleased with all of them. But if you
only invite the ones that are riting good stuff, yeah,
or their favor you, then you're doing it all wrong right,
and you're doing it all access doing the right thing.
You're never gonna somebody's always, even if you're winning, somebody's
gonna disagree with the way you're doing your job. And
a lot of times it's not personal. If it is personal,

(01:32:36):
have a private talk with them. But they still belong
in there because things go sideways. They don't have to
kiss your ass. Their job is to report.

Speaker 2 (01:32:45):
What's going on. Sean.

Speaker 5 (01:32:47):
There's a lot of these teams now that have in
house media. Of course, be able to curb some of
that for that very reason because oh, you know this GM.
I mean, you know, I'm not going to give out
a specific name, but this GM spoke with in house
media on Boy.

Speaker 2 (01:33:01):
I'm sure that was a really hard hitting interview.

Speaker 5 (01:33:03):
I mean, if you're gonna do this, then at least
do that, because if nothing else, then it's it's on
the record. It's all of those things. And it's just God,
just like what a soft cell this one and Dallas.
It keeps adding up for the Mavericks on not doing
it the right way right now. It's just it gets
to a point where you're like, look, I don't necessarily
care that you're hurting yourself. But at the same time, though, too,

(01:33:26):
I do have an answer of how you could not
hurt yourself as much, and maybe you should probably take
me up on that, But what do I know.

Speaker 2 (01:33:32):
At a certain point, all.

Speaker 5 (01:33:33):
Right, it's coming up retirements of jerseys at a certain school. Well,
some people aren't very happy about it, and somebody has
some demands. We'll talk about that here on the Sean
Salisbury Show Sports Talk seven to ninety.

Speaker 6 (01:33:47):
Hey, give you a home or business, a fresh code
of paint, sort of Pro Painters can revitalize the interior
xterior your home. But let's not stop there. Maybe it's
time to refresh the paint at your business. Curt of
Pro paints residential and commercial properties, both interior and xterior.
And as a customer, first, I know what that feels
like in my home because they've done both interior and exterior,

(01:34:09):
and I'm so grateful for them. And we got a
great spring sales event coming up at sort of Pro
Painters Home Projects until May fifteenth.

Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
Now, what's that about? A month away? You got till
May fifteenth.

percent off. Buy May fifteenth, get it done, You're going

They've seen all the paints, all the quality, all the colors,
all the all of it. They're timely, they're local. They're
going to treat your home as if well it's their
own home, which is a good thing, not their own home.
They're going to linger and stay around, but their own
home because you want it to look right, and if
it's not done right, they'll come back and do it.
I never had that problem, never had to ask them
back to fix the property or a paint job at
my place. It's sort of pro painters topro dot com.

(01:35:01):
And remember each curt Of Pro Painters business is individually
owned and operated, sort of with a sea. You spend
a lot of money on your home and your business,
why not protect it with quality painting from curt Of
Pro Painters. It is sort of with the sea. It

Pro Painters, it's sort of with a see sort of
pro painters.

Speaker 2 (01:35:30):
That's painting happy.

Speaker 4 (01:35:34):
The Shawn Salisbury Show continues in now you know.

Speaker 6 (01:35:41):
Yeah, I think he's a good looking man who pulls
more John Party or Riley Green the Party?

Speaker 2 (01:35:49):
I mean Riley Green is not married, right, I don't
think so?

Speaker 6 (01:35:53):
Now Party is I can't remember what Party's wife looks
like I think she you know, country singer, it's like anything.

Speaker 2 (01:35:59):
I mean, yeah, if you he's probably gonna pull. I don't.

Speaker 5 (01:36:02):
I don't know if Riley Green is quite like the
Morgan Wallen you know level, because Morgan not only you know,
likes to party, he likes the ladies, and he also
likes throwing you know, deck furniture off of rooftops and bars.

Speaker 6 (01:36:13):
Well that's a good one for go to. You know,
I think Reht's married, and I know John party Is.
I don't know about Riley Green and I don't and
I don't think Morgan Wallen's married.

Speaker 7 (01:36:22):
Is he?

Speaker 6 (01:36:22):
No, he's all right, So I guess you go who
pulls more? Riley Green and Morgan Wallah. Morgan probably even
though he's not. I mean, you're kind of a goofy
dude looking at you, right, but but but there's don't
be energy though, yeah right.

Speaker 5 (01:36:35):
I mean, like, you know, look at fraternity and sorority chicks.
You know, at times like people will post the picture
of Sheen Gillis and his lady and say that's the
average SEC couple. Trust me, there's numerous tailgates I've been
to where I'm like, like you got to explain this
to me, how is this happening?

Speaker 2 (01:36:50):
Happens?

Speaker 12 (01:36:50):
Man?

Speaker 2 (01:36:51):
Well, more often than not, it's a pretty fat wallt
in Dandobe shallow abe shallow. How some people fall in
love and then to what you may think is a guy,
how do he pull it to her? He's everything? Okay,
raise your standards just a little bit, have some respect.

(01:37:11):
Maybe he treats her, Maybe he treats her kindly, Maybe
he's packing.

Speaker 6 (01:37:14):
I don't know, I don't know. I mean, I mean,
who's counting? You know what I'm saying. Maybe she just
loves him. We found we know Belichick's girl loves him.
So maybe maybe when it comes to a guy that
you say.

Speaker 2 (01:37:27):
Man, he doesn't he's not that hot, how do you
pull her? Maybe just maybe to her he's a twelve
kind of look you your shallow Dan?

Speaker 5 (01:37:37):
Like when when Tiger Woods first came on the scene
and Charles Barkley, Hey, how do you talk to girls?
Charles Barkley's response was, you're Tiger Woods, They'll come to you.
You don't have to really talk. And we found out
pretty quickly that Tiger had no problem with Yeah, so.

Speaker 2 (01:37:52):
Tiger big fan of Tiger, treated like you do when
you were winning on a golf course all the time.
Just don't talk to him and they'll love.

Speaker 5 (01:37:58):
You even more more often than that, I would probably
say for the single guys out there and ladies, but
more for the guys on this one.

Speaker 2 (01:38:04):
The less you talk, the better off you're gonna be.

Speaker 12 (01:38:06):
Yep.

Speaker 6 (01:38:06):
Oh, so you don't overmeil yeah, because the problem is
eventually you overload your mouth with your ass.

Speaker 2 (01:38:12):
Yeah talk. Plus there's that mystery about you that says,
what's he thinking?

Speaker 10 (01:38:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:38:17):
Why is everybody else giving me attention? And the one
dude in here, why isn't he right? And then so
that you know, start to meander over there. But then
there's some guys who are just really sharp with the
tongue and can talk their way in and out of anything. Right,
Morgan Wallen may be one of the Does he feel
like he could? Yeah, probably cut a little wild child
in yeah, little bad boy. Right, you got a little

(01:38:40):
bad boy in him, right, Yeah, he does. I mean,
you know, like I said, you go on argon chairs
off the second floor of a restaurant or bar or
whatever it was. Yeah, So I just wonder, you know,
but Dan, I mean me and the fact that you're
shallow and it's only eight thirty in the morning. Sometimes, Dan,
love exists, Okay, I just want you to understand this exists.

(01:39:00):
I mean, there may be somebody out there that say,
how did she pull him? Meaning Megan pull you?

Speaker 2 (01:39:05):
Right? I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:39:06):
Maybe some of there may be a couple of girls
out of saying, man, how did Megan pull you?

Speaker 2 (01:39:10):
And I know what you're saying is no, no, no,
how did I pull her?

Speaker 7 (01:39:12):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:39:13):
That's what you're saying that you should right, But Dan,
you love her?

Speaker 7 (01:39:18):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:39:20):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (01:39:20):
Well, maybe the girl who's a ten that's dating the
guy who's.

Speaker 2 (01:39:24):
A three, he just he treats her with love and kindness.

Speaker 6 (01:39:27):
Dan, I would appreciate, and so would Tripoli if you
would be a lot less shallow and a lot more
loving Dan.

Speaker 5 (01:39:33):
Yes, Dan, and maybe lot of time. Sometimes being filthy
rich does does go a long way too. There's that,
it's the unspoken.

Speaker 2 (01:39:43):
Yeah, there's that.

Speaker 6 (01:39:44):
Oh it comes from a great family, Oh he does. Yeah,
he's a great personality. Oh yeah, of course. I mean
I think the Belichick thing, you know, maybe that he
was a famous coach and has a bunch of rings
and I don't know, I don't know, but you know what, Dan,
I think that probably one of the things you need
to do on your time off is mull over your
hatred for people that love each other. Dan, you know,

(01:40:04):
a less shallow I'm a kinder, gentler shown these days
and we triple and I would probably be more appreciative
Dan of your really good work if you would just
look at people for who they are, Dan instead instead
of just happen to see how hot they are.

Speaker 7 (01:40:20):
Dan.

Speaker 2 (01:40:20):
I will work on myself.

Speaker 5 (01:40:22):
I will.

Speaker 7 (01:40:23):
I will.

Speaker 2 (01:40:23):
I will do that for both of you, guys.

Speaker 6 (01:40:25):
So you're going to fix the the fact that you
are an insensitive prick who's shallow.

Speaker 2 (01:40:30):
Sure, Sure, I'll do what I can.

Speaker 5 (01:40:34):
I'm not saying that it's going to be a linear
progression of you know, getting to the right place here,
but I'll at least try.

Speaker 2 (01:40:40):
But can I do that? Yes? Please, I'll be better
And that always said the relationship. I'll be better. Trust me.
I'm just asking you to get one percent better.

Speaker 6 (01:40:48):
Each day, just one okay, because you're forward, you're moving backwards, right.

Speaker 5 (01:40:53):
I'm just trying to be better today than I was yesterday. Dan, listen, Oh,
trust me, I've got all of the cliches I can
throw them. My favorite cliche is looks don't matter. Okay,
there's nothing shall about it. Tell me looks don't matter exactly.
There's got to be an attraction. I can tell you
this from across the room. When you find you see
somebody across the room, you're not thinking, I bet her

(01:41:17):
ass looks like a peach, and you're like, I bet
she's got a great personality.

Speaker 2 (01:41:21):
That's not what you're thinking.

Speaker 6 (01:41:22):
She may have one after you meet her, right, but
it ain't that oozing personality from a distance because she's
commanding the room. That's all that matters. But you're saying, okay.
Or if she you know hot, you meet him and
you're like okay, then you're hoping the personality matches what
you saw. But it's usually, well, looks don't matter your ass,
They don't they matter everybody? Hey, Then then if that's
the case, then why do we wake up and smell

(01:41:44):
fresh and look nice? Try to do it because you
want to make sure that significant other, or if you're single,
that that people look you think well, at least the
person cares about them. So that's the biggest one, right,
that's the biggest one like cares about has some self respect,
Like I got a buddy mine it's a serial dater,
dresses awfully and I've told them that too.

Speaker 2 (01:41:58):
There's a reason I'll stay as here. That's what I
told that.

Speaker 5 (01:42:02):
That's exactly what I said. I was like, I was like, dude,
he's just like, why you know they can't like me
for me? I'm like, that's the point, dude, that's what
you don't understand.

Speaker 6 (01:42:11):
And I would imagine one of the most underrated things
is we go to break here that there is out there.
And I'm sincerely mean this guys and girls. I'll speak
for guys for girls. Somebody who smells clean and fresh
all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:42:24):
They care about that. I think that's a top three
I do. It's massive, I do.

Speaker 6 (01:42:28):
And I would imagine that a gal, like a guy
gets out of the you know, that he got out
of the shower, and they meet it arrested that he
has a fresh smell, whether it's a little subtle clone
you know, creed, or if it's a soap or something.
You're like, okay, we got that, like and and oh,
they take care of their teeth and their fingernails, and
I know those things matter so well, they sound frivolous
and shallow. The truth of the matters. If somebody's got ToeJam,

(01:42:51):
I'm probably out. Okay, the secret unless we got off,
unless we were just camping. But the secret is you
hard sell at the beginning where you do all those things.
Then when you're in the committed relationship, you start dressing
like a slob. Well, you can dress like a baggy
sweat sitting around, but I would think that you'd even
want to ramp it up to show who you were

(01:43:11):
is exactly who you are. There, you go, makes sense.
You gotta be if you just do what's right and
then do then you don't. You don't have to do anything.

Speaker 2 (01:43:18):
You gotta love yourself before you can love somebody else. Sean, Oh,
thank you.

Speaker 5 (01:43:21):
And then by the way too, you know, like the
whole looks don't matter. I always love the Oh, I
love it first sight. Oh I wonder why it wasn't personality,
hence the word site.

Speaker 2 (01:43:33):
Yeah, there you go. I'm sorry, You're You're exactly right, Dan,
You just love You gotta love yourself first.

Speaker 5 (01:43:37):
That same friend he once went to a bar with
us wearing you know, from Seinfeld the license plate ass man.

Speaker 2 (01:43:43):
He had that on a shirt and Megan was with
us a magan because you think there's a girl out
there that says I'll never forget the.

Speaker 6 (01:43:50):
First time said yeah, if that's the one that marries him,
that'll be a classic. That's the best man speech. But
it will be two peas in a past. Meaning if
she loved that he found the right now.

Speaker 2 (01:44:02):
I remember when Pam and John met each other. John
that night was wearing an as Man shirt, right, So.

Speaker 6 (01:44:08):
If he finds the one, at least he used to
eliminate in the ones, which is probably most of them
when he learns the shirt.

Speaker 2 (01:44:13):
But hey, whatever you like. It always takes.

Speaker 6 (01:44:14):
Somebody for everybody out there. Right, Well, thank you. So
you're already no longer shallow. That's nice.

Speaker 2 (01:44:19):
That's us Softer and kinder Dan Matthews.

Speaker 5 (01:44:22):
If they ever bring back love Connection, Chuck Wallery, I
will continue the legacy.

Speaker 2 (01:44:26):
So we'll be back in two and two. That's it.
That's it, you know, it's.

Speaker 5 (01:44:30):
Don John see you guys right there. Shadoor Sanders and
Travis Hunter continue to stay in the news. We'll talk
about that here on the Seawan Salisbury Show, and we'll
also talk about curt of pro curt of pro Painters. Right,

Sort of pay cut of pro painters paints residential and
commercial business interior X tier is certerpro dot com for
your free estimate, serterpro dot com for your free estimate.

(01:45:13):
Each sort of pro painters business is individually owned and operated,
so it's got a boutique feel, so you feel like
you're not some oh's stamp them and moving down an
assembly line for another paint job, just so they can
get you in and get you out now. You want
you know, obviously local and timely, but you want it
done right. And there's a great spring sale going on

With the spring event from now until May fifteenth, ten
percent off ten percent off any home projects over twenty

when it's twenty five hundred dollars or more, and you
got that till May fifteenth, and they do fantastic work.
I was a customer first. I say it all the time,
but it matters to me because it's a novel concept

(01:45:56):
for me to tell to you how good sort of
pro painters is and you'll once you get them because
I used them first. I've never understood how you can
buy into somebody selling you something that they've never tried themselves.
Sort of pro painters sort of with the Sea curtapro

in the business. And you you work hard and it's

(01:46:17):
expensive to own a home or a business protected with
the quality paying stpropiners. It is sorted with the Sea
Curt of pro painters. That's painting happy. But the Sean
Salisbury Show continued because you know, when you're out on
the water, you want the vibes to be flowing.

Speaker 2 (01:46:33):
You want to be a good out there. There is
no doubt. So yeah, bad music will ruin a boat day.

Speaker 5 (01:46:39):
You're not playing, you're not playing Tchaikowsky on the boats.
I imagine that boat coming by. You'd be like, yeah,
that party sucks, man.

Speaker 6 (01:46:46):
Yeah we're not singing an opera and arm no no, no, no,
you got you go to the next one and they
got Brooks and Dune playing.

Speaker 2 (01:46:50):
You're like, all right. I like these people. I like
the cut of their jib. See there's there's another cliche
for you.

Speaker 5 (01:46:57):
Absolutely someone three two, one, two, five, seven ninety down?

Speaker 2 (01:47:01):
Good morning? What's going on?

Speaker 7 (01:47:03):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (01:47:04):
Good morning man?

Speaker 2 (01:47:04):
How you guys do it very well?

Speaker 3 (01:47:07):
That's great?

Speaker 9 (01:47:08):
Hey, I want to give some insight on some of
these halves that have not so I've seen a lot
of billionaires get money behind the scenes that a lot
of people don't even know or see about. But I
want to talk about some of these sports athletes that
go into a restaurant where I have the privilege a
lot of times of sitting when these guys come in,
they come in with four six eight people, and these

(01:47:30):
owners of these restaurants, they bend over backwards and they
comp their meals for them, and they're just so happy
that they're there. It's unbelievable. They sit down and they
take up two tables for about nine inn ites and
this waitresses working her ass off at a dollar eighty
five an hour, and they get up and leave and

(01:47:50):
they stiff the tip. And I want to tell you
right now, I have seen that so many times.

Speaker 2 (01:47:56):
And I want to tell you.

Speaker 9 (01:47:58):
If you guys think that these sorts athletes are the
ones that's doing all the favors, they're not. And memo
to you sports athlete, if you're one of these guys
is sitting at this table, just just remind yourself that
these ladies make a dollar eighty five to two twenty
five an hour, and when you stiff them, you're a
piece of crap.

Speaker 3 (01:48:18):
That's what I'm thinking.

Speaker 6 (01:48:21):
Let me ask you real quick. Yeah, I think you know,
we hear the stories about it. So have you literally
seen You've been at table a bunch of times in
a restaurant where you've seen athletes do this.

Speaker 7 (01:48:34):
Half the time.

Speaker 9 (01:48:35):
And I want to tell you who the worst guy
that I ever saw. Uh, you had the bearded gentlemen,
let's just mention his name. Bringing an entourage of about
eight or ten people, they sit at a table, they're
there for two hours. They got a liquor bill, they
got a food bill, and I mean, it is enormous.
And this one lady, she's trying to service all these

(01:48:56):
people and all they're doing is complaining at her. Their
meal is their liquor bill is calmed, and the bearded
boy stands up and says, hey, I know you did
the best you could and walk out and stiff the tip.
And I see this so many times, man, embarrassing. I'm

(01:49:16):
the only one that sees it's embarrassing. And uh, you know,
as as I get to call these guys, uh man,
it's just it makes it really hard.

Speaker 3 (01:49:26):
And I'm heading to.

Speaker 9 (01:49:27):
North Texas to one of the guys that I just
saw the other day stiff tip and man, I want
to tell you, man, it makes it rough sometimes, guys.
And I'll just I'll just I'll just hang up and
listen to you guys. Man, But don't don't think that
these sports athletes are.

Speaker 3 (01:49:41):
Gods or not.

Speaker 2 (01:49:44):
Yeah, Dan, don thank you. I don't for one second.

Speaker 6 (01:49:46):
I've heard many a stories and I've been around them
that are that tipping is when you should tip and
when you when you don't tip properly. I understand bad
service or somebody's going to I get that. The conversation
but especially when your meal is getting comped and paid for,
you should be tipping more than twenty percent.

Speaker 2 (01:50:05):
It's the weirdest thing.

Speaker 6 (01:50:07):
The more money you make and the more famous you are,
they want to give you all the freebies. When you
had nothing or nothing you could use it, they're not
giving you anything. So it's the old ass kissing of
the celebrity and stuff. And I got the money to
pay for it. But if they do that, the tip
doesn't stop at twenty bucks. Now you've got your meal
and booze comp because you're a celebrity or a star,
play it. And I don't, for one second I've seen it.

(01:50:27):
I don't to me. You know, the athletes, they can
be role models and heroes too, whoever it is you
grew up worshiping. But when it comes to tips and
all that stuff, there's plenty of people who make far
less that are the tip more and we know the stories,
and I'm sure they do some good things. But yeah,
to me, it's it's completely complete disrespect.

Speaker 2 (01:50:49):
It's just like.

Speaker 6 (01:50:52):
It's just like when somebody tips, they're like they, I
don't think you should be putting on a per person
table an automatic fifteen percent service charge in and then
you know, because I tip anyway, but service charge, which
is the tip charge. And when there's two people, I
understand on the big parties don't tell me what I

(01:51:12):
got a tip. I'm gonna tip you good anyway. That
it just sets me off. Right, Yeah, I'm gonna tip
you anyway. But it's almost like you're saying I'm getting
this because would mean the reason they do it, They've
been stiffed plenty of times.

Speaker 2 (01:51:20):
So I just yeah, I don't think.

Speaker 6 (01:51:23):
I sure don't put an athlete on a pestl because
he makes money, because a lot of times people that
make a lot of money may not. And it's not everybody,
it's not a blanket statement may not tip as well.
And unfortunately don't seen many as he said, he's seen
it happen many times, which to me, it just sucks.

Speaker 2 (01:51:37):
You could do something like that. If you're getting your
meal comped or free.

Speaker 6 (01:51:41):
And when I say compter free, same thing a meal
and booze comped and free, I would suggest you raise
that tip because they're taking care of you.

Speaker 7 (01:51:48):
Well.

Speaker 5 (01:51:49):
It's also in the age of social media, the service
industry likes to.

Speaker 2 (01:51:53):
Talk oh and they.

Speaker 6 (01:51:55):
I don't think it's right that they also on the
other side that they take a snap photo put it on.
Because if I owned a business and my person who
did that a waiter put what they got tipped out
there for everybody to see, they wouldn't they would not
come back to work.

Speaker 2 (01:52:13):
No, I can understand that, because it's just you know,
we're gonna work. We'll take care of it in house.

Speaker 6 (01:52:17):
How can we fix it the next time the person
comes in, We'll see them in a different side, in
a different section, and hope that they tip. I mean,
that's there, that's while tight wads and treating people disrespectful.
How do you fix that? You can you keep them
out of your restaurant because they don't tip. I don't
know if the owner does that. But it also goes
the other way, right the chatter of the guy gave

(01:52:38):
me twenty five percent, of this guy gave me five percent.
It's weak not to tip, especially if they're doing the job.
But the other side of it, it's just as weak
to post it online when somebody had a three hundred
dollars bill and they didn't tip you, because it gives
your restaurant a bad name and other people don't like that.

Speaker 5 (01:52:53):
Here's the moral of the story. Here the life rules
on the side of the refrigerator. Take care of the
people who take care of you. Yeah, I don't know
why it's that. Just to somebody's given you a good service,
treat them with respect. It's the same way if you're
a waiter, you shouldn't have to ask for a napkin
when you sit down yourself.

Speaker 10 (01:53:13):
Can you do?

Speaker 6 (01:53:13):
Some people forget they're busy, but if you ask the
three times they don't bring it, then you got to say,
now are you paying attention to what's going on? Yeah,
there's no reason a browbeat. And people have jobs. We
all make mistakes of their jobs. If it's continuous, if
I'm the owner, that the person won't have they'll they'll
be doing something else at the restaurant other than beat
out front serving people. But I just don't understand people's
thought process that they're above when somebody waits on them,

(01:53:36):
of making sure that person's treated respect.

Speaker 5 (01:53:39):
You know, there's some people who say, you know, for
our politicians, you want to have, you know, prerequisites to
be able to serve well. I would also say one
of those for just life in general, work in the
service industry. Work in the service industry. Once you do,
then your perspective changes. Go there's no question, bingo. But
you shouldn't have to work in the industry to know
what respect is for sure. Sure that's a good point.

(01:54:02):
All right, So we'll get into a little bit of
Shador and Travis Hunter. John c right there. We'll continue
on with the conversation right here. Sean Salisbury Show, Sports
Talk seven ninety.

Speaker 2 (01:54:14):
Back to it, h town.

Speaker 7 (01:54:16):
Are you on juice?

Speaker 10 (01:54:17):
How bring the juice?

Speaker 2 (01:54:18):
Let's go.

Speaker 4 (01:54:19):
The Sean Soundsbury Show continues most definitely on Sports Talk
seven ninety.

Speaker 2 (01:54:26):
John on the Northwest Side. You've been waiting patiently. Good morning.
How you doing. Yeah, you guys went and did it.

Speaker 10 (01:54:32):
Now I'm gonna be playing my country all day today.

Speaker 2 (01:54:35):
There you go.

Speaker 10 (01:54:37):
Hey man, Look listen, that uh, that Dallas thing. Not
that I feel sorry for the map fans, because I don't,
but this is very similar to when Bill O'Brien and
traded d Hop overnight. Oh we were so mad, we
were the lynch mob was idea. We wanted him out
of here so bad. They had no choice. The tickets

(01:55:00):
sales had dropped. People weren't renewing this sweet saw anything.

Speaker 7 (01:55:05):
They had no charge.

Speaker 10 (01:55:08):
They had to run Bil O'Brien out here, and it
didn't get better until they brought in some an intelligent
general manager, Nick Caserio and and and Themico Ryans. But
the situation in Dallas is it's more magnet magnified.

Speaker 7 (01:55:24):
Because of the talent of Luca.

Speaker 10 (01:55:27):
And another thing about that, when you think about it,
I don't know if the fans are really look at
playing this tape all the way through. You traded this
guy overnight, you getting informed none of the other NBA owners.
You could have gotten a lot more for Luca. This
is like two owners having coffee at night, sitting down talking,

(01:55:49):
looking here, we're gonna do this, We're gonna do that.
It looks like it's it looks like there was a payment,
like somebody offers somebody something. There was the deal because
they could have gotten more for Luca. It makes no
sense at all. You did not inform the rest of
the board that hey, Luka is out here, you know

(01:56:12):
what are you gonna give me?

Speaker 7 (01:56:14):
It made no sense.

Speaker 10 (01:56:15):
And look at maybe the greatest player that the Mavericks
have infa had Dallas ain't never really had much. They
they got lucky with that little championship with no winskey,
But I just don't blame them if I was stemmed.
I don't know how that general manager sit in that.

Speaker 2 (01:56:34):
Stadium and get booted.

Speaker 10 (01:56:35):
He couldn't have sit in a in a Rockets NBA
stadium down here. We'd have booed him right out of
that stadium. That was a dirty stinker that that that
deal right there, stink man. It's like you pete out
my leg and you tell me it's raining that that
made no sense man, unless somebody made under made a
deal behind closed doors.

Speaker 8 (01:56:55):
You guys agree with me on that one.

Speaker 2 (01:56:57):
Y'all have a good day now, see.

Speaker 5 (01:56:59):
I mean with the O'Brien Hopkins comparison, I mean it
does fit because well, for O'Brien, he didn't do himself
as any favors for how he carried himself. I mean,
he carried himself as he has all the answers. Nobody
can question him on anything because you know what, you
know what his answer always you know, well, you know,
if you don't know the play or any of these things,

(01:57:20):
that's dismissive to why you're even asking the question. It's
just like you're really not as good as a coach
as you think you are. Like this guy, honestly, it
cracks me up. He did an interview I think it
was with JD. Pikel last year when he's at Boston College,
and he was like, you know, we're good coaches. You
guys know that, Like, why do you constantly have to
have the affirmation you're either a good coach or you're not?

(01:57:41):
Like stop saying, like everybody recognizes it, We understand.

Speaker 6 (01:57:44):
We know you don't need the You've been doing it
long enough not to need the approval or validation from
a person who doesn't know. Right and even if the
ones who do know you got the job, they don't
do your thing, and the validation comes from w's and
l's and your teammates and your coaching staff.

Speaker 2 (01:57:58):
You don't need.

Speaker 6 (01:58:00):
You don't either, because no matter what, if you play
good for ten games to play bad for two, they're
going to question you in people are going to be mad.

Speaker 2 (01:58:07):
It's the way this can.

Speaker 6 (01:58:08):
You know, the winning takes care of itself, and how
you handle it is also a big part of it.
You know, postgame, pre game, during the week of practice,
all that when it applies to the Dallas Mavericks.

Speaker 2 (01:58:19):
Now he makes a guy.

Speaker 6 (01:58:19):
I get where he's going because I do believe that
there I don't know hand to hand cash here do
this deal, we'll do. I do believe there's a bigger
picture for the Mavericks that it may not just be
about basketball. Let me just put it to you that way.
I do believe that exists with this situation. That being said,
it was a horrible deal and if if you weren't

(01:58:40):
the ownership pushing it, then you're questioning your GM, just
like the fan bases now. But the fan we're not
all privy to what goes on in their private meetings, right,
So yeah, man, I it was.

Speaker 2 (01:58:49):
It was a bit wild.

Speaker 6 (01:58:50):
But I will tell you this to my guy John,
who we love, is a regular on the show. Dirk Nevinsky,
who wasn't just a guy. Dirk Neavisky may be as
good to seven foot shooter you've ever had. One of
the best of all time. Dirktovitsky was one hell of
a player and no offense to Luka, well he will
be at some point. I'm sure he's still not Dirk

(01:59:13):
Devinsky Novitsky. If you're talking about Novitsky still in my mind,
a rung above Luka when you compare the stages of.

Speaker 5 (01:59:22):
Their career, right, they don't put statues up of just
you know, run of the mill guys and jags out there,
and the Mavericks were pretty quick to put up a
statue of Drkdovinsky.

Speaker 6 (01:59:31):
That shows tell you how beloved I lived there for
eleven years or whatever. I can't forget to tell you
how beloved Novitsky isn't that we were there. He's the
equival to Dream.

Speaker 2 (01:59:40):
I'm just telling you.

Speaker 6 (01:59:42):
I'm not saying he's as good as him, sure, but
in their eyes and downas Fan's eyes, they are the
affinity for Elijah Wan in this town, you can't and
the Altova.

Speaker 2 (01:59:53):
But I'm just talking about hoops now. The Elijah infinity is.

Speaker 6 (01:59:56):
If you try to tell somebody Elijah Wan was a
good player, not great, they that it's like water burger
to them, right, you don't those are fighting words right
in Dallas. Trying to convince somebody that Novisky wasn't a
great player and isn't like Dallas that matter of fact,
doesn't matter what Cuban did or anything. It was about
Naviz I mean, and Dirk's such a good dude, right,

(02:00:18):
and that mattered in the way treated people. Navitsky is
the king in Dallas, and that's saying something. The cowboys
are the king. But Novitzky it's hard to when you say, okay,
compare them Dallas. Novitsky's in like the cowboys category. They're
just like Elijah Wan. That's exactly right, exactly right now
for sure. All right, you know a couple of guys

(02:00:38):
getting their jersey retired. Well, it has people wondering, hey,
where are the others? We'll talk about that, and demands
made by one of those guys. We'll talk about that too,

of a draft conversation in this hour. Again, if you

want to hop aboard on the phone line seven one
three two one two five seven ninety seven one three
two one two at five seven ninety sean. More than
likely the Texans will not be in on Shador Sanders
or Travis Hunter, but a couple of bits of news
about well, both of them in one case, and then
another of those two guys in another situation. But we'll

(02:04:29):
start with both of them first. Colorado is going to
retire both of their numbers, Schador's number two and Travis
Hunter's number twelve. And of course, as you can imagine,
not only from the social media sphere, but also two
players who were there when Colorado was winning national titles

(02:04:49):
and was a program like That's the crazy thing to
think about.

Speaker 2 (02:04:52):
In my mind.

Speaker 5 (02:04:53):
I still think of Colorado as you see that logo
and you're like, oh man, good football program, when in reality,
until Dion got there and you know, just you know,
raise the profile of the program. Maybe the results haven't
one hundred percent followed yet, but like I still remember
like Rashaan Salam and like Chris Brown.

Speaker 6 (02:05:11):
Darien Hagen, Yeah, national championships, Bill McCartney, Uh huh. The
quarterback Cordell Steward was pretty good, Slash was pretty good.
They've and there's a lot more there that have played
Chad Brown. I can go through the list of great players.

Speaker 2 (02:05:25):
Listen. I had mentioned this yesterday.

Speaker 6 (02:05:29):
First off, if you're comparing the two, say save the
stats on just Shudur Sad. It's first they never won
a bowl game. And I'm not saying they turn around Colorado.
There was years ago Colorado was a hell of a
program and then it went south and Dion has revitalized.
There's no question he has brought a lot to it.

(02:05:49):
There is a case of nepotism here, though, make make
no mistake about it. It's not so much that they
shouldn't be in the They shouldn't get their jerseys retired.

Speaker 2 (02:05:57):
It's the timing of it. Can we let it just
breathe for a few minutes.

Speaker 6 (02:06:00):
I mean, I know at USC, when you win a
Heisman Trophy, it's almost that's almost stone cold lock that
you're getting your jersey retired. And it doesn't matter who
you know, Marcus Allen and Reggie Bush and Carson Palmer
and Matt Liner. Eventually in college football, let's just retire
the name of the person the jersey. When you got
two number seven's going on in truth, one hundred and

(02:06:22):
five hundred and ten whatever, one hundred people on a roster, eventually,
you're going to run out of evers. If you had
a good program of guys that you keep getting Heidsman
Trophy winners, put the name up there. But if there's
a second number seven that wins a Heisman Trophy, okay,
you got two good ones.

Speaker 2 (02:06:35):
It's okay.

Speaker 6 (02:06:36):
But my thing is how premature it is. They haven't
even left campus yet. I'm assuming hopefully they're still in
school until the draft, even though they don't need to
be eligible for anything right now because or they're getting
their degree or whatever it is. Is, why are we
trying to crow barrow this in so soon. First off,
you can make the argument is Shador Sanders earned. I know,

(02:06:57):
we get hit in the mouth a lot of quarterbacks
doing throw the ball because he's going to be a
high draft pick. Fine, but I can go back to
national championship winners and stuff that aren't in that ring
of honor and or haven't had their jersey retired. Should
stands a good player. One of my favorite things about
him is this tough to stay in the pocket. But
just because he's put up numbers in a two year
period and transferred from Jackson State, and because he's Dion
Sun doesn't auto manmatically make him. And there's plenty that

(02:07:19):
are far more worthy right now that have waited their
turn to be it. Even if it's five years from
now that you can wait.

Speaker 2 (02:07:26):
Dean doesn't need to crow bar this in and get
it done so he can be on can he can
go back to campus and visitor. He'll still be there.

Speaker 6 (02:07:33):
He just signed an extension even if he waited a
year for Travis Hunter. Let him go be a rookie,
do his thing, win the defense of her offensive, or
come buy Rookie of the Year and come back and
next spring, let's do it.

Speaker 2 (02:07:45):
I just don't know why.

Speaker 6 (02:07:46):
As a Heisman Trophy winner, eventually you're going to get
your jersey retired, I would assume, But.

Speaker 2 (02:07:51):
Why are we doing it? They haven't even got to
May and they're going to do this.

Speaker 6 (02:07:56):
And as much as should Shoulder Sanders have been good,
we can he can go through the number And don't
compare the numbers now to the throwers when Cordell Stewart played,
because they throw it a lot more and it's more
wide open and the rules are set up for more success.
Hell if that's the case when I left USC, and
I of course I shouldn't have my jersey retired. But
if I left USC, I left USC as their all

(02:08:17):
time leading passer, and that's missing two full seasons with
knee injury. So are they suppose saying, well, look what
he did while he was here, Pat Hayden's and all
the court people in the past, Sean blew by them,
and he should be his number retired. Hell no, my
number shouldn't be retired. But boy, I left as the
all time leading passer of course until Rodney Pete came along,
and then they threw it more on Carson Palmer and

(02:08:39):
Matt Liiner.

Speaker 2 (02:08:39):
You get my point. Sure, so, just because the urgency
of it, let the urgency breathe, That's all I'm saying.
And it reeks.

Speaker 6 (02:08:46):
And if Dion wanted to get rid of the reaking
of nepotism, just let a breathe for a year or two,
let him go to the NFL. I know it's a
college thing you're retiring, but a lot of times there's
guys the round, a bunch of you. I'm just speaking
for my university that they've waited for years that didn't
win a Heisman Trophy that finally got.

Speaker 2 (02:09:01):
I don't think.

Speaker 6 (02:09:02):
I don't I'm not even sure. Is Bruce Matthews Jersey
retired at USC He's a Hall of Famer, no better
than I were right. I don't believe it is. He
is a Hall of Famer, He was a college All American,
he was a first round draft pick. The guy played
nineteen years and didn't miss injury due to a game
in nineteen years. Why is it his Jersey retired because
he didn't win a Heisman dominant player?

Speaker 2 (02:09:22):
You see my point? Ye, so, and compare it to
Colorado well five years from now, as we see offenses
and go, what if the guy behind Shador Sanders gets
a Bowl win and throws for more yards than Shador
did these last two years? When's the conference playoffs?

Speaker 8 (02:09:37):
Shitty?

Speaker 6 (02:09:37):
Automatically Jersey retired. The answers, No, there's a lot of
great play. That's why you gotta let it, let it
breathe a little bit. Now you win a Heisman Trophy
and yeah, good Travis Hunters. Sure, but even then.

Speaker 2 (02:09:49):
Let him like, let the anxiety, let him relax, and
then come back next year, a year two, another good
rookie season. What's the rush now?

Speaker 6 (02:09:56):
I understand if a guy's ninety, let's get him in
so he can enjoy it while he alive.

Speaker 2 (02:10:01):
But right now it's premature. It just is.

Speaker 6 (02:10:04):
I don't know if I hear this, and maybe it's
happened for I can't remember a time when all of
a sudden, I mean, I go through USC players that
the Tim McDonald's, great players that had great college and
NFL careers, that their jersey's not hanging from a raft
retired And I just named one in Bruce Matthews. He
didn't win a Heisman Trophy, but he had a longer
career than any of those guys that have a Heisman trophy.

(02:10:26):
You have see a longer career, didn't miss in college,
and Durba had a longer career, and you could argue
better than most why why isn't his jersey retired? So
my point is we don't need to rush to this,
and I if you're putting one up there, it had
to be Hunter alone. They don't have to go in
together just because they came in together. I think you
had to let it breathe. So basically, I think by

(02:10:47):
doing it this fast, it cheapens the jersey retirement at Colorado,
especially from guys behind them. And I know from finding
out yesterday there's some guys yet behind him that have
played at Colorado that aren't real happy that this is
happening so urgently. It has nothing to do with race,
It has nothing to do with Dion. Now them getting
this done has a lot to do with Dion. But
I would even think of how Shadur sanders. I'd want

(02:11:08):
to let it breathe for three or four years and
then have it in saying, see, now my dad's been
there long enough. It wasn't let me stand on my own.
It feels like he's not standing on his own. Hunter
doesn't need it. He won the Heisman Trophy and he's
gonna get his jersey return. But can we get him
off campus for a minute and bring him back and
make it a special ceremony and just crow barring it

(02:11:28):
in before they leave in twenty twenty five. It's premature,
and it also is a slap in the face to
guys who've won national championships and put up four year
numbers instead of two year numbers and don't have the
same respect. I don't mind putting them in and retiring
their jersey. It's just and now's not the time, especially
for Shadur Sanders.

Speaker 2 (02:11:47):
See.

Speaker 6 (02:11:47):
Quite frankly, if a Colorado quarterback throws for four thousand
yards a year, should he automatically be in The answer
is no.

Speaker 5 (02:11:55):
Somebody goes by at Kaka lacman on at Twitter goes
hold on, you're telling me you're going to retire these
two's number for going four and eight, nine and four
and not winning anything, But you haven't retired Cordell Stewart,
who went eleven and one, led them to a Fiesta
Bowl win over Notre Dame and finished at number three.

Speaker 6 (02:12:14):
Okay, so and then made that unbelievable throw to West
where you remember the unbelieva scram was like seventy seven yards.

Speaker 2 (02:12:20):
Me let me explain something to you. First of all,
how hard that is.

Speaker 6 (02:12:22):
But and then he went on to a really good
NFL career, being slash and doing a lot of things.
I remember just being a playoff quarterback. That right there
tells you who had a better career, Schador Sanders or
Cordell Stewart at Colorado.

Speaker 2 (02:12:35):
I'm going to go it's not close. And know I'm
talking about the numbers. It goes z Van.

Speaker 6 (02:12:39):
Shador Sanders is a good player. He's probably he's gonna
get drafted higher than the then Cordell did. But that's
not the point. I'm not a point. You can put
Shador Sanders in if over the course of time, but
let it. Let's see now with this new era, Dion,
give me another quarterback under Dean and see how he thrives,
and let's compare the two, and then you could put
him in. Hunter's done his But I still like it

(02:12:59):
the way, so there's any coming back to campus after
his rookie year and do it.

Speaker 2 (02:13:03):
Let's build it up and give it to him. It
cheapens the jersey thing because if you're putting him in there,
if you're Cordell Stewart and ser Sanders is going in
ahead of you, the only thing I can think of
is nepotism, and it's wrong.

Speaker 6 (02:13:15):
And I love Dion, but it is wrong. I'm just
telling you it cheapens the jersey retirement at Colorado when
you just that won AlSi to do just one name.
I could take you through fifteen more if you want.

Speaker 5 (02:13:26):
And there have been other players, like former Colorado great
Michael Jones saying as much. Flagrant disrespect is what he
calls it. You mentioned Darien Hagen, somebody mentioning Hey along
with Cordell, and the last number that was retired at
Colorado Rashaun Salom's number nineteen back in twenty seventeen after
he won the Heisman in ninety four.

Speaker 2 (02:13:46):
Yes, say that Louder again.

Speaker 6 (02:13:48):
When did he win the Heisman nineteen ninety four and
when did his jersey get retired our teen years later? Okay,
I rest Mike, and that's usually the norm for when
you do it, and he deserved it. Shaduor Sanders and
Travis Hunter. It's way too premature to four months after
their careers over at Colorado to put them in. You
wouldn't do it if Shador Sanders won three Heisman trophies.

(02:14:11):
Normally you just wait, come back in two years and
do it. Look how long Rashaun Salong had to wait.
What it does is achieved because now you know what
I'm thinking, Well, of course they did this because Dion
wanted this done instead of Shador standing on his own
and may deserve it in two years. And Hunter, we know,
is going to get in. Great player, but let's let
it fester. Let's let it simmer for a few days

(02:14:33):
in a few years and put him in. Nah, premature,
and it is. It is blatant disrespect to guys like
Cordell's to Bill McCartney. I mean, there's a lot of
guys who are Colorado that also started there and ended there.
I'm not saying transferring one time's a bad deal, but
you get my point right.

Speaker 2 (02:14:51):
And you don't want, if.

Speaker 6 (02:14:53):
You're Shader, Sanders or Hunter, to have it be because
Deon's the coach and forced feeding it through.

Speaker 2 (02:14:57):
You want it to be because your play.

Speaker 6 (02:15:00):
Yeah, no, it's the ceremony is an eye roller now
because it's happened way too soon. Just ask Rashaan Salam
about that. You can come back, jersey will be framed. Yeah,
he passed away, but I'm talking about seventeen. Yeah, that's
God rest his soul. And it was a hell of
a player and unfortunate that he got around to enjoy's
whole life of being a Jersey retired and being that

(02:15:22):
Heisman Trophy winner. But look how long you had to wait. Yeah,
there's nothing wrong with having to wait sometime. And he
obviously prematurely passed away a way too young an age.
So I just don't it cheapens the jersey for me
if you the retirement part of it, When you're doing
it this premature and force feeding it, I.

Speaker 2 (02:15:40):
Don't like it.

Speaker 5 (02:15:40):
Yeah, you can come back, wave to the crowd, The
jersey will be framed. You can do the gripping grin
photo with it.

Speaker 2 (02:15:45):
And this year, this year, you know what, let somebody
wear twelve and next year let somebody wear twelve and
then come back and say.

Speaker 6 (02:15:54):
That twelve is not being worn anymore. If that's the
way you want to do it, sure, hang it from
the rafters and let's go. Makes no sense. To me,
and it riaks of nepotism. A lot of people won't
disagree with you.

Speaker 5 (02:16:06):
We can get into this a little bit more on
the other side, Kenneth, see you right there, Steve. Also,
and speaking of one of these two guys, they had
an interesting demand for teams that I'm calling cap We'll
talk about it right here Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 2 (02:16:21):
This is the Sean Salisbury Show. Yes, yes, that's very nice.
Now with that fresh leather scent on Sports Talk seven ninety.

Speaker 5 (02:16:34):
A demand for the NFL team that takes him, and
that is, let me play both sides of the football.
And when asked by CBS Sports, well, if they tell
you you got to choose, his response, it's never playing
football again because I've done it my entire life. Love
being on the football field. I feel like I could
dominate each side of the ball, so I really enjoy

(02:16:57):
doing it. Do you really truly believe if a team
which they've had conversations with them this entire process, that's
what you do. I mean, teams look for a reason
to say no to you. That pretty much is what
the draft process is. But somebody takes them and in
the first day at rookie mini camp whatever it is. Hey,
you're working corner, Well I want to work receiver. No,
you're working corner. You think he's just gonna walk off

(02:17:17):
right there and say that's that's the career.

Speaker 2 (02:17:19):
I'm done.

Speaker 6 (02:17:19):
I'm gonna I'm gonna walk away from the millions. And
you know he's not walking away Dan. If they make
him play one position, he's not holding out. That's the point. Yeah,
that's not going to happen. Here's the deal. Unique athlete
and unique just unique. Everything about him on the field
is unique. I don't know him off field. Seems like
a great kid, but he when you just talk about

(02:17:40):
true football players, he's as good as we have and
just a football playing Jesse right and would say, well
Otani can do that. There's a different in the physicality
from pitching and playing DH as there is from playing
corner and playing wide receiver in the NFL. And they're
not drafting to be the number four corner. So and
he's not a great man guy. He's an off cover guy.

(02:18:01):
I can play man, but that's not as you know,
off guy and drive on throws. He's got great, great
ball skills as a cover guy. Sure, and JB and
I were talking about another show yesterday and so so
with that in mind, I said, I'm greedy. I want
to play wide receiver the whole time because I want
to score. If I'm the court, I want I like
him on that side of the ball, On the defensive
side of the ball. He's as good at corner as

(02:18:22):
I wasn't college football. And you know, depending on who's teaching,
what kind of scheme you play, you got it. But
if you're going to make him the one and the one,
if you all of a sudden you think he's got
that skill set, Now, I want you to think about
sixty We play about eighty or ninety plays in college.
If you're on Tennessee, you're old miss playing fast right
Temple football, NFL. Let's say sixty five. So if you
play one hundred and thirty plays on both sides the ball, Well,

(02:18:42):
what's the difference in college?

Speaker 10 (02:18:43):
A lot?

Speaker 2 (02:18:45):
A lot?

Speaker 6 (02:18:45):
Because the back of the sixth corner was an All
American in high school and college.

Speaker 2 (02:18:49):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 6 (02:18:50):
The just the physical reality of the physical guy. Do
you want him as the jack? And sometimes you try
to do too much. You're not only not the jack
of all trades, you're the master of none. Now, this
guy's a unique town. I have no problem rolling him
out there as a rookie and finding out canny handle. Eventually,
he's not going to nine years into his career. I'm
just telling you, Hell, they move corners to safety nine

(02:19:11):
years in the career. Who don't play Dion couldn't do
it on a regular basis. Name the guys who tried
to do both sides. It's been spot on one side
or the other. It's not been full time.

Speaker 2 (02:19:20):
Right.

Speaker 6 (02:19:21):
So with him as a great talent long and is
really good. I think he's about one hundred and eighty
five pounds, maybe buck ninety. If he beefs up, he's
gonna have to be in a run game, he's got
to cover. Then he's got to come over, and you
got to deal with the guy just as good as
you and dealing with stingley and clutching and grabbing and
for one hundred and thirty plays a game, counting both

(02:19:41):
sides of the ball, can he do it? I'd love
to see it. Is it an ego pride thing? I'm
sure it is in that he loves football. But if
you're gonna maximize him and what he means to your
program or your team is both ways the best. I'm
one of those guys. He's in his early twenties, he's young.
Let's go see, let's see. But at some point in time,

(02:20:01):
I would imagine if you want to excel and be
and I'm thinking on the metal side, people are talking
about this. Let me tell you how tough it is
to get ready for a game plan preparing for one position. Now,
if you're you're playing let's say you're playing dB and
he's playing corner and all the end you've got to
study movements and formations and shifts and all that, and
then all of a sudden and all those guys are good,
and then all of a sudden, you got to come

(02:20:22):
on the other side. How are you getting all the
practice time in on both sides the ball? When people say, well,
he can do both, he get his watched from one side.
It ain't that easy. You're playing against the best of
the world has to offer, and you've got to excel
if you want to be average. Yeah, but he's not
an average player. So I'm caught in between right now
because I love him on both sides. He's a great talent.
But then I say, we'll let maximize. Will it make him?

(02:20:43):
Does he bring the best?

Speaker 2 (02:20:44):
Now?

Speaker 6 (02:20:44):
I also, if you're nervous about playing him on both sides,
sixty five plays a game on offense and defense. What's
wrong with starting him at corner and giving him thirty
plays a game on offense. See how it goes. Or
you can work a start up and work your way back.
Or sixty five, dude, that's too much, Let's give you
twenty specialization. So regardless, he's gonna get snaps on both

(02:21:07):
sides of the ball, but over the course of time
to maximize it, is he gonna be and is he
gonna get the early on the payday because he does both.
But at some point in time, you want to get
the payday for your position, the biggest that there is, right,
that's what you want to do and be a great player.
The question is is getting all those snaps without being
able to mentally prepare and watch and film a bull

(02:21:28):
You think about how much time he's gonna have to
use up during the week to be great, not to
just get by, to be great at both positions. Like
I said, the mental preparation going into a game to
study and now he's got to do it for sixty
five plays on both side. Where's he going to find
the time to do that and live? So it's tough,
and his natural athletically says he can. But one false
move is a corner, and these receivers Nico Collins will

(02:21:50):
toss your ass into the third row and beat you
on a slant route.

Speaker 2 (02:21:53):
So I think he can.

Speaker 6 (02:21:55):
I'm willing to test it early, but over the course
of time, at some point in time, it's like the
red Hey, I'm playing third base. No, you're not playing
third base. You're DH no, I'm playing third base. No,
you're not playing third base of the DHR team's better. Okay,
Bregman's playing third base because he's a gold Glove winner.

Speaker 2 (02:22:10):
You're going to DH no. I'm yes, you are.

Speaker 6 (02:22:12):
And guess what's happened. Bregman's playing third base and Drafael
Devers is dhing. Same here, you play both. But there's
going to come a point in time when I think
to excel, he's gonna have to. But listen, he may
be the he may be the unicorn. I'm willing to
try it out first, but I don't think eight years
from now, we're going to be saying he's playing one
hundred and thirty snaps a game. On both sides of
the boy, I appreciate the competitor, but it's also what

(02:22:33):
a hell of an assumption by you thinking your game
is automatically going to translate. Ain't even stepped on a
practice field yet. It's just the Saint Utah on the
other sideline there, Bud, you're not playing bowling. Green is
not an opponent. I don't mean it disrespectful to bowlding.
You get my point that it's also and there comes
that point time, so what if you're prepared, you're the one,
You're the one you want, And all of a sudden

(02:22:53):
it's September and you're playing against the Arizona. You're playing
against Arizona, you're playing outdoor instern Florida, and we've counted you.
Hey dude, you want a one hundred and thirty snaps
a game. We're giving him to you, and ninety of
them in. You're like, maybe have a bit off, a
little bit more than an right, but now we got
to put the guy who hasn't got enough work on
the practice field in because you and make no mistake,
There's very few athletes I know that can go early

(02:23:14):
on without the mental and physical reps and then go
out there and dominate. Because for every corner the he
for every receiver he lines up against, you're running into
AJ Brown, Nico Collins, Jefferson Chase. That'll make you. That'll
humble your ass quickly. And then you got to go
on the other side in Stingley's grabbing you, Sauce Gardner's

(02:23:35):
grabbing you. You know, guy, You're rolling across the middle
and they are unloading on you because oh, you're the
guy who wants to play two positions. See, I'm just
saying now he might be a unicorn. I don't mind
trying him out there. I just don't see how he
can maximize his game doing both all the time. That's
gonna be hard to do for a special athlete, and
he's pretty special, no doubt about it.

Speaker 5 (02:23:55):
Kenneth OGQ. See you guys right there, get you into
the conversation. Also, you know something you've brought up before
with the Texans when it comes to the draft, liking
or loving. Maybe somebody agrees with you. We'll talk about
that right here. Sean Salisbury Show Sports Talk seven ninety. Yeah,

The Sewn Salisbury show continued and says he left in
a wheelchair. Let me tell you what if he was

(02:25:18):
a real competitor, he'd have finish the concert.

Speaker 2 (02:25:22):
Or well, that's it.

Speaker 5 (02:25:23):
He he had the injury, but powered through for the
performance of nothing Else. There you go with Forrest Frank
at the Bridgetone Arena there in Nashville.

Speaker 6 (02:25:33):
So he couldn't finish the whole thing. Got through a cut. Yeah,
I'm just kidding. Obviously, broke his ankle. That's got to
be painful. But you know what, take a shot Thomas
hopping your hop in the chair and sings it down.

Speaker 5 (02:25:45):
Remember Dave grohlwol is it for for I was about
to say, Google alls for the food Fighter. Yeah, same
neighborhood kind of, but for the food Fighters. Broke his
leg on stage and then said, bring the medic out here.
Go ahead and cast me up right.

Speaker 2 (02:25:58):
Here and tape it up.

Speaker 5 (02:26:00):
I got drums in his line, his line, true rock
star stuff right here. People came to see a show.

Speaker 7 (02:26:05):
Was he on?

Speaker 2 (02:26:05):
Was he on the drums?

Speaker 6 (02:26:06):
Uh no, he was on the guitar and the guitar musition.
They can play a lot of answers.

Speaker 2 (02:26:10):
Right yeah, But sat in the chair and and and
gave the crowd a show. I like it, I do,
and I like Thomas.

Speaker 6 (02:26:18):
I'm kidding, but keep powering through it, man, you know, hey, hey,
give me give me a shout of that. As Harry
Carry would call it, Hey, spray a little cocaine on it,
a little noc on it, right, Hey, Stoney, ball hits him, boos,
shell boots it.

Speaker 2 (02:26:34):
Ah, he's hurt. Trainer is gonna come out and spray
a little cocaine on it. Hey, Duchy.

Speaker 6 (02:26:40):
Anyway you go back to it. Yeah, but you you'll
power through. He'll probably give all that money back and
go back and concert it up another time. That's it,
cast it up and let's do it a couple of
days later. He's a man of the people. That's he
is a man of the people. I'm a big fan
or even a nice cold bud as you know Harry
Harry was one.

Speaker 2 (02:26:58):
Yeah, this bud's for you. That's there.

Speaker 13 (02:27:00):
You go, hey, stone Pony, this bu's for you, Hey, Stony.
I don't understand what they're doing. He's kissing her and
she's kissing him. It seems like every inning they kiss
each other in between each inning.

Speaker 6 (02:27:13):
I'm not sure what it is. Hey, I finally figured
it out. He's kissing her on the strikes, she's kissing
him on the balls.

Speaker 2 (02:27:22):
Hey to one to Jody Davis, Yeah, there you go,
Jody Jody Davis's.

Speaker 5 (02:27:28):
He had one once where he was talking about and
it was a crucial situation late in the game. Went
going to the grocery store and they had seedless grapes.
But then that's seventy Super seventy Sports. I guess he
did it for some sort of taco brand, and the
Super seventy Sports guy played the commercial and goes, hey,
I'll tell you what Harry Carey tells you. You go
get your taco supplies. You better go damn well, go

(02:27:50):
grab a taco exactly.

Speaker 6 (02:27:51):
Did Harry also go, hey, pop fly towards I don't
know if it was Villosevis guy eight.

Speaker 2 (02:27:56):
Or ya Hey, how he drops it? How can a
guy who plays three hundred and seventy days a year
in the sun drop a pop fly? He's Mexican, you
know or whatever?

Speaker 6 (02:28:08):
He Mark Gray Kerry, Right, you're in the sun all
the time here, Hispani, how do you drop pop fly
in the sun?

Speaker 10 (02:28:15):
Right?

Speaker 6 (02:28:15):
So that's why you mean it, like all of us think. Man,
he plays in the sun all the time. That's why
how's he dropped? Mark Grace does a great Oh yeah,
Harry carry as well? That's why you had to have
the stone pony right there. You have to make sure
you had the straight man in the booth. Ed Stoney
was likely to get right back on business. Oh it
was class guys. Sounded like an accountant on the air.
But then you're like, hey, wait a minute, No, that
guy was a hell of an all star pitcher. We

(02:28:36):
forget about that past so says spelled backwards as assos.

Speaker 2 (02:28:41):
You know, he was one.

Speaker 5 (02:28:44):
He was one of a kind for sure. Kenneth and
Orange wants away and good morning Kenneth.

Speaker 14 (02:28:50):
Oh yeah, man, I try to stay on topic and uh, Sean,
you've pretty much summed it up about that nepotism thing
unless you retirement. But I gotta say this here is
that I really believe these a lot of stuff need
to be post careas post mortem, because Colorado had some

(02:29:12):
great people there and I can't I got to see
something about Brian Byron White. He played that he was
number two in the Husman voting.

Speaker 12 (02:29:22):
Uh.

Speaker 14 (02:29:22):
He left on World War Two to go fighting Navy,
won two bronze stars, came back, finished law school, ended
up on the United States Supreme Court, and one of
the eight ruling in favor of Brown. Versus the board education.
Now that's greatness there.

Speaker 6 (02:29:41):
Man.

Speaker 2 (02:29:41):
That was Wizzard White, right, the Byron Whizzard White.

Speaker 14 (02:29:45):
Yes, sir, yes, sir, thank you, yep.

Speaker 2 (02:29:48):
That's a great point.

Speaker 8 (02:29:48):
Man.

Speaker 2 (02:29:49):
Appreciate the uh Chief justice. I believe he was, like
I said, Supreme Court Justice White was a not only
wasn't on the field just only on I mean, he
was a great player, but it was all the stuff
he did off the field. The impact.

Speaker 6 (02:30:02):
Now that should be whatever it is, jersey or a
name hanging from the rafters, right, and he maybe I
don't know how they've honored him there. But if that's
not statue requirement or jersey retirement requirement, I don't know
what is. And after all the years of wait, like
I said, if for Shaan Salom God rest, his soul
has waited thirteen to fourteen years, it's okay for these
guys to wait a few years. It's way too premature.

(02:30:24):
And it just reeks of.

Speaker 2 (02:30:27):
Dion's presence, which is a good thing. But not when
it comes to this, let this happen without it being you.
Does that make sense? There's more to Colorado football than
Dion Sanders.

Speaker 6 (02:30:39):
Yes, there's more to Colorado football than Shador Sanders right
now and there's some guy doesn't mean he's not doesn't
belong in. But like I say, what if the guy
coming up for the next two years throws for as
many yards as him and takes him to a bowl
game and that doesn't automatically mean that guy's in you
and a Heisman trophy.

Speaker 2 (02:30:56):
Put it was a way.

Speaker 6 (02:30:57):
The distance in jersey retirement between Shadors and Travis Hunter
right now is from US to California. That's the difference.
Right now, guy won the Heisman, was the best player
in college football. The other guy it's going to be drafted.

Speaker 2 (02:31:12):
I was a good quarterback, but it's just two years
of no ball games and played good good player, But
good players usually just don't get their jersey retired. It
takes a little more than that. And there's a lot
that goes into it.

Speaker 6 (02:31:25):
And now you've given us the opportunity to say, well,
he didn't even get to stand on his own merit.

Speaker 2 (02:31:29):
It's because Dion's presence so.

Speaker 5 (02:31:31):
Hell of a precedent set. I mean, it seems like
you open up the door to pretty much anybody at
that point.

Speaker 6 (02:31:37):
So Kans Wyatt cheapens the jersey retirement at Colorado. More importantly,
the people behind them that aren't in, that have got
a ring on their finger and have played great kind
of been all American that still don't have their jerseys hanging.
It's okay to let it fester, meaning let it simmer,
and then come back and bring them back.

Speaker 5 (02:31:58):
Sean, you had a revelation yesterday that I think it
feeds into a couple of my theories. We'll talk about
that here as we close up this edition to the
Shawn Salisbury Show on a Western Wednesday Sports Talk seven.

Speaker 6 (02:32:10):
Ninety Yeah, wits at Vision dot com, my guy, doctor
Jeff Wits at WHI T S E T T. If
you're tired of glasses and contacts, make the switch if
you think the price is right, which you will, or
work out your payment plan with them. That'll happen to
good specials go on at witzet Vision. But also what's
really special is it's non invasive. You won't be on
the table long and you'll see better than you have

(02:32:30):
since the Primier vision. At least I know I haven't.
The people I've sent to him have love Doctor Whitst
because I you know, we're all anxious when somebody's putting
a laser on or I or anxiety only got two
of them. You're like, man, But once you do it
and he walks you through it, he will ease the anxiety.
And I think that's important. And when you have somebody
laying on the table that's your doctor, that you know
his hands and his eyes are going to treat you

(02:32:51):
like he would his own or his own children, then
you're in good position. But we all hear that. But
don't you want to walk through it and find out
what it's like on your free com consultation. I would,
and I can tell you this. You'll come out of
it asking or telling yourself, I should have done this
earlier or why didn't I. And it's there now, the
best in the business. And we got him right here
in this town. You don't have to get on a
plane and travel to get great eye care and a

(02:33:14):
great Lasik procedure.

Speaker 2 (02:33:16):
I'm grateful for him. There is no better.

Speaker 6 (02:33:18):
It's doctor Jeff Wissitt seven one three, three, six, five, nine,
seven nine nine Free review, Free Consultation seven one three, three, six,
five nine, seven nine nine. Let him look at you,
let him walk you through it so you feel comfortable
and get back to seeing the way. You want a
clear vision, man, I need it because I got to
see my ball down in the fairway or in the rough.
And maybe you're the same as me, but you can

(02:33:39):
get it handled at witsitt Vision dot com, witsit vision
dot com and we're valid for the Sean Salisbury show
continues that that that's that's what you're gonna get from
him the majority of the year. That's a stellar performance
for a guy who's not far away from being the
guy you run out there first.

Speaker 2 (02:33:57):
Hence what an ace does.

Speaker 5 (02:33:59):
Yes able to do that yesterday, So the Astros, hoping
to do what they haven't done all year, went too straight.

Speaker 2 (02:34:05):
Which is which is semi amazing so far.

Speaker 6 (02:34:08):
I know, really, even even with what's sixteen or whatever
game's in, it's kind of amazing that we're sitting here
saying they haven't won back to back yet.

Speaker 2 (02:34:17):
Yeah, going into yesterday, I think it was the Orioles them.

Speaker 5 (02:34:20):
I want to say the Red Sox and the Braves
were the only other teams that had not done that.

Speaker 2 (02:34:25):
And all of them, there's a chance to say the
teams again.

Speaker 6 (02:34:28):
Orioles, Red Sox and Braves. I think we're the other ones.
And guess what's going to happen. All of them are
going to make the playoffs. Yeah, or at least have
a chance too.

Speaker 2 (02:34:38):
That aout that I love it.

Speaker 5 (02:34:43):
Yeah, I can't wait to see what we got in here.
But we'll definitely let you know about that on the socials.
O g Q wants to weigh in here on the
Shawn Salisbury Show, O G what's up?

Speaker 7 (02:34:54):
What's going on? My brother from another mother? Man?

Speaker 12 (02:34:58):
You know, I had to call me and I'll miss THEO.
You know, I follow all the local players and pretty
much the national players too. But we had a couple
of players from Houston wondering. Chris Huston from Worrdon that
with the Colorado had an excellent career. Their made all
of America a couple of times. And I know your
buddy uh after Wiggins from Jones to Uh he played

(02:35:20):
with my nephew on the Great Jones team. He's I'm
not sure if they're in, but you know some great
names from the Fast that with the Jones, and you
know we can't forget every enemy.

Speaker 2 (02:35:33):
Good time, Yeah, Big.

Speaker 12 (02:35:35):
Eight, Uh, you know Honoery And I'm not even sure.

Speaker 7 (02:35:39):
If he's in yet he has a couple of Super.

Speaker 12 (02:35:41):
Bowl rings on his head too, So you know, I'm
a you know, I'm a Jackson State law so you
know I'm off for Beyond. I'm off for Travis. But
you know, it's it's a it's a time for everything,
and now it's not the time.

Speaker 7 (02:35:56):
Three.

Speaker 12 (02:35:56):
I don't know if y'all remember as a junior, I
can't b I think it was a Utah they played
and uh, and Travis got torched pretty bad by this
large six foot three receiver. I mean, they really tore
him up.

Speaker 7 (02:36:10):
And that's what he's gonna see every week in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (02:36:14):
And on a tap by more than one.

Speaker 6 (02:36:16):
Guy on OGQ. That's not just one dude, it's that
number two guy is pretty good too. Like if you're
playing Cincinnati, t Higgins is the number one on twenty
teams in this league exactly.

Speaker 12 (02:36:27):
Yeah, and then you think about it, Okay, he got
torched that game. Okay, the next game he shut the
guy down when they were playing you know, some Battle
State or what. Okay, but it's not gonna be no
off weeks. So you got to realize that and to
put him out there for that many plays on offense
as opposed to defense. He's a great athlete, no, no

(02:36:47):
doubt about it. Can't take anything from it. But you know,
we got to be reasonable.

Speaker 7 (02:36:52):
You know that the NFL is full of them. It's
full of those great athletes.

Speaker 2 (02:36:57):
Great point.

Speaker 7 (02:36:57):
So I want him.

Speaker 12 (02:36:59):
I want him to excel and I want him to
succeed the shule. But sometimes you know, you got the
you got the you know, take your time and see
what he's been said and and let him go that way,
because if you try to do that in the NFL
what he did in college, I don't see it happening.

Speaker 2 (02:37:16):
Yeah, I can't well think about it. We we didn't.
The Dion couldn't do both consistently. It either.

Speaker 6 (02:37:22):
It was good, but he was specialization. Send him a camp,
put him at both. Let's see how it works out.
He's a great player. He's going to get get his
jersey retired. I mean he would do that four years
from now, it's just too early. But as far as
playing multiple positions and then figure out what he does best,
because to me, I think if you put him a receiver,
he's a he's got the skill set to be one

(02:37:44):
of the better ones in the league. If you put
him at corner, he's got the skill set to be
one of the better ones in league. I think if
you do both over the course of time, he it
will cut into both, There's no doubt. And the problem
is you're rob Peter to pay Paul. But you're not
going to be able to pay Paul either because of
just the the demand your body and mind to do it.

(02:38:06):
And and OGQ spot on and he named all those names,
and you know, getting dead it's.

Speaker 2 (02:38:14):
It's going to come. Just it doesn't need to be
Crowbard in this quickly as far.

Speaker 6 (02:38:18):
As the player goes, Hell, I want here's the thing
when it comes to Travis Hunter, I want that problem
on my roster, not him is a problem. The the
ability to choose. Well, what's the biggest issue you got
with Hunter? Where I'm playing him?

Speaker 11 (02:38:34):
Now?

Speaker 2 (02:38:34):
Think about that. He's a good kid.

Speaker 6 (02:38:36):
I mean he's been nothing but stand up and done
his thing and performed, and all of a sudden you say, hey, man,
what's what what's the issue with Travis Hunter? Well, one
is I didn't get to draft him. Okay, that sucks
for you. Oh I draft him? Oh man, what do
you think? Well, what's the biggest issue going into camp.
I don't know where I'm gonna play the guy. He's
too good at both, but I'm gonna have to pick one.
That's gonna be the thing.

Speaker 2 (02:38:57):
You're gonna have to deal more with the backlash if
you play but what position than you would if you
didn't draft him. You know what I'm saying. It's competitive.
There must be out there, There's no doubt about it.

Speaker 5 (02:39:05):
I'd rather have that guy that I got to back
off instead of tell him to play both positions real quick.
You went and saw the Jason State of the movie yesterday, Yeah,
working man, it's it's a combination stathum Wick and uh
my guy Liam Neeson from taking you Get All three day.

Speaker 2 (02:39:21):
It was a good movie, though it's who he is?
What's the rules?

Speaker 5 (02:39:24):
Triple Y they're always the same guy or type cast
type casted?

Speaker 6 (02:39:28):
Yes, there you go and guess what though, you'll come
out of it saying again Stathan movie entertaining and he's
kicking people's ass.

Speaker 5 (02:39:35):
Well, maybe Leam Neeson can take us out for the
show today as he's shown Dan and also Triple le
Emmanuel Elmore. The guys will talk to you in twenty
hours tom right here seven ninety
