Speaker 2 (00:32):
Let's get this, punies, you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Happy birthday to my twins. By the way, I watched
it with Man Man last night.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Put off twins.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Yeah, eighteen today. Nice shouts out to Man and bugs Levaringley.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
They got fake IDs yet, Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
You got that whole real id thing going on right now.
I think they ideas is out the door a little bit.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yeah, it's true. I forgot about that.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
So those are the good old days. I mean for
those that partook kind of not.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
They got apartments.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Yeah, they gotta necessarily go go downtown to get get
done what you need to get done.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
If you're really trying.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
To get it done, it's gonna be pretty sweet when
they bring back or have somebody go get a case
of that stick city logger, bring it back to their
their apartment there in State College. Not that they would
drink it, but you know people of age would drink
it obviously.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yeah, well they'll have an unlimited amount of unlimited supply
stocked in there. What about us, it's really good. Yeah,
I'm gonna take care of y'all. Hell, yeah, I wanna
take care of y'all. I'm talking about Yeah, we'll take
care of you.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It is too two pros and a cup of Joe.
Here on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas
Knox with you, and we will be taking you again
all the way up until nine am Eastern time, six
o'clock Pacific. You can find the show is always on
the iHeartRadio app and on hundreds of affiliates here all
across the country. And so now we transition over to
(02:21):
this story, which you know, we might have somebody with
intimate knowledge of this situation or maybe some of the
blowback of it. But there's a gentleman who I believe
is out of Youngstown, Ohio.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
He is a politician, and he has an idea. He's
an Ohio representative. His name is tex Fisher. He has
presented a bill What's Up Techs that would prevent state
universities in Ohio from competing in games before three thirty
Eastern time, if both teams are ranked in the top ten.
(02:59):
But it does not apply to games that are part
of a college football tradition. So, in other words, the
game between Ohio State Michigan, that one's fine where it's at.
It's the other ones he's got an issue with because
people are apparently not happy with these early start times
in Columbus as part of the big noon kickoff, you know,
(03:19):
presentation of their program.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Did I miss something? Did did someone announce the time
of a game?
Speaker 6 (03:27):
This year?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Is the first one? Is a big noon game? Correct?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Well?
Speaker 5 (03:34):
Fox has the game. Did they actually announce a time
of the game.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
I'm not sure if they did.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Oh, Okay, So it's it's basically all speculation that they're
assuming now because Fox has the game, that the game
would be at noon. Okay, And I assume text who's
a really smart guy, right, he's a congressman for the
state of ohioup in Youngstown. I assume he knows the
Big Media Rights Agreement you know how much Ohio State's
(04:03):
getting paid an agreement that they not only agree to,
but also the entire Big Ten Conference agree to back
when Kevin Warren was the commissioner. So I assume that
text knows that fans for the Buck guys know that
that this was an agreement that they signed up for
in order to make the money they're making every single
year from Fox and from their other TV partners in.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
CBS and NBC.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
So I assume everyone knows that like the seventy five
million a year they get, that's part of it. And
I assume they know that because of this agreement, Fox
is locked into a noon window CBS out of three
thirty at NBC at a primetime window, and in order
for any of those windows to change, the partners have
to work with one another, which gets complicated and sometimes
(04:48):
things have to be given and taken sort of thing. So,
for example, it's just just hypothetically speaking, if you have
a really good game that another network that's got the
rights to the ten doesn't have. Let's just say I
knocked on your door, Jonas in your NBC and I said, hey,
I want to move a game to the night, like
(05:08):
a primetime game on NBC would be like, well, that's
our window. You know what am I going to get
in return for this? Well, we want that game that
you have. Well that becomes a difficult conversation then, because again,
in order to move a game, then you're giving up
one of the best games you've got, which was part
of the original agreement. That's going to take away from
overall viewership and then your ability to be able to
(05:30):
make enough money off of the advertising revenue generated to
be able to pay Ohio State, every other Big Ten
school for that matter, in the Big Ten Conference for
how much you're you're you know you're bringing in. So
it's obviously an incredibly complicated situation. What never surprises me
is that this there's not been a time associated with
(05:54):
any of the games I've been announced yet, and yet
this is the reaction.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Just from Youngstown. I mean, if he's a representative of Youngstown,
why is he why is he getting involved with what's
going on with Columbus? Like what, I feel like I
missed something.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
And it's someone actually did this last year again, they
made a comment about it. And what's surprising to me
is that no one from the Big Ten Conference no one,
even from the university wants to actually say to the
fan base like, hey guys, this is the deal we
signed up for, Like we know what we were getting
ourselves into. We're working with our partners, our TV partners,
(06:35):
to figure out a better solution so we get more
atmospheres like the playoff home game atmosphere Ohio State versus Tennessee,
which I was at, which which was awesome and I
hope people understand too. Again, there's big noon Kickoff, which
is our pregame show, which five maybe six separate times
last year, was not at a game that was at
(06:57):
New Like, our pregame show has nothing to do with
the slotting of when Fox puts on what games in
what time slots. Our pregame show has zero to do
with that. There's times where it's correlated, it's matched up
where we'll be there. There's times when it's not. There's
multiple games where we were doing with our show. We
(07:19):
were flying out and there's a game that was kicking
off four hours later at a three point thirty kick
somewhere you know, somewhere else, whether it's BYU or down
in Texas Tech or wherever else. It was number of
times that happened last year, a number of times has
happened through the years.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
We've done night games.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
We went to USC Notre Dame, which was a night game,
wasn't even on our air. So there's an odd idea
in people's minds that Big newon Kickoff has something to
do with anything we're not. We're a pregame show. It's
no different than when college Game Day goes to a
campus where it's a night game. We've done the exact
same thing, and yet people have this like visceral towards us,
(08:00):
like we have any decision on all that now in
regards to you know, when the games are picked and
where they're slot and all that. That's Big Noon Saturday.
You know, that's Joel Klatt, that's Gus Johnson, that's that
crew and how that works.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
And they don't have any stand in either.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
That's to all the executives and based on the media
rights agreement that again the conference and the team signed
up for. So I understand the frustration behind it, and
trust me, we like anyone else, love for there.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
To be night games.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
Like I grew up playing high school football Friday nights.
You know, I obviously went through college football, the NFL
in primetime. My first start was on Thursday night. First
win ever got was on Monday Night football. Like I
trust me, I understand how awesome night games are. I'm
as big of an advocate for it as anyone else.
But people need to disassociate like they're crazy passion for
(08:50):
it and understand there's also like a business model to
all this, Like Ohio State has one of the biggest,
most robust football staffs and scouting apartments and everything else
in part because of how much money they make off
the TV revenue. That's a portion of all of that.
Without that, you're not going to be able to compete
for national championships. You're not gonna be able to raise
(09:13):
as much funding as you can for everything else, including
ANIL which helped in a big way of building the
roster last year. So I would say this, this would
be my message.
Speaker 6 (09:25):
Be patient.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
There's been no times that have been given out for
these games. And by the way, I know because I'm
a part of it, and there has not been a
time announced for it.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
We'll see what happens once we get to the fall.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
And by the way, even if there was a time announced,
and let's say, I don't know. For example, it was
new and Eastern time. People people act like this is
some low level time slot that doesn't get eyeballs, Like
so you're getting paid and you're getting seen, Like I
know it's not prime time, but let's not pretend like
(10:00):
you're throwing them on in the middle of the night
and they're competing with Hawaii for attention and views. Like
people watch these games like the numbers, the ratings prove it,
and for some reason there's complaint like I don't get it.
I really do not understand. Like I could kind of
understand Oklahoma's ad bitching a couple of years ago because
(10:20):
the games were starting at eleven am. I kind of
get that. But still same thing. You're getting paid, people
are watching. This is a this is a big platform
for your program to be featured. Why complain at all?
If you want to complain, go talk to the PAC
twelve or whatever the hell's left of it, or go
talk to one of there's other schools.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
And this what was odd to be last year, Jesus,
And what was odd to be last year not to
take a shot at Penn State. But it was announced
before the season which game would be the white Out,
and it was important because of when the Ohio State
penn State game fell, which Fox had the right to
and the winner with the World Series.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
So there's there's not a ton.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
You can do when you have got multiple major things
going on on your network that you like the showcase, which,
if I'm not mistaken, was what Yankees Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Yeah, small middle, small market, like, no one cares about that.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
So upset.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Yeah, and they were upset, but but again they should
have been an upset about what we're dating that game,
the white the white out game versus Washing at the
beginning of the season. Like it wasn't a surprise. Everyone
knew that was coming at the beginning season when when
schedule was announced.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Yeah, it was in the media. I mean, it was
talked to.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
So that was what was odd about it too, is
it was like people were surprised by It's like, oh,
it's Ohio State Penn State.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
They weren't surprised. They just like Pennsylvania people like being
upset at stuff like that's it, Like it is that simple?
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Is that a thing? It's a thing? Can you put
that in grock? Like put it in grock? Do Pennsylvania
people like being upset.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
What's odd to me though, is did the Penn State
fan base get upset when they had to play s m.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
U or on the early game in the playoffs. Did
they get upset about that?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I think they were just so excited that we were
in the playoffs, you know, and against a team, against
a team that we thought we could win our first
ever game in in Beaver Stadium. So that there's that
too there. It wasn't like we had, uh, you know,
Ohio State or Oregon coming in in round one to
(12:28):
play against us. So, you know, I don't think people
were complaining that that we had a cold day in
State College playing against LAMU at any time. The fact
that we were playing I think that that was you know,
that was good. So but the white out, the white
out hits different.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
The people are very protective over what goes on with it. Yeah,
it's not it's it's it's uh, it's it's like, you know,
not related to to white people. Yeah, Otherwise, I mean,
why would I go, you know, why would I go
(13:09):
to the white out? You know, I was there, been there,
who don't you of course there's white.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Nothing to do with white.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Imagine somebody somebody just turned on the radio just now
going to work people, You're like, don't.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
You I'm just like everybody else. I like, I like
some of them. I don't like some of them. I mean,
that's that goes for all of them. You know.
Speaker 5 (13:37):
I had a buddy with a great way of addressing society.
At this point, He's like, well, what would you call me?
He goes, I hate everyone, it doesn't matter who you are,
and white could be anything else. He goes, I hate everyone.
I'm like, well, at least, yeah, you're you're equally applying
your hate out there if you just hate being around
people nowadays.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Do you have Grock results on Pennsylvania people?
Speaker 4 (13:56):
I do.
Speaker 7 (13:57):
Indeed, I put in the prompt you'd ask to Pennsylvania
people like being upset about stuff, and I got a
very prompt, short answer from Greek. This being Pennsylvanians like
any group very wildly in their temperament, but there's no
evidence that they're uniquely fond of being upset. The state's
culture spans gritty Philly sports fans will boo their own
team to laid back homish communities to rust belt towns
(14:19):
with legit economic gripes.
Speaker 8 (14:21):
If anything they're upset might be about. Be loud pragmatism.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
I think Pittsburgh is grumbling about potholes or Eagles fans
venting Cathartically, exposts from PA users often show pride in
local identity cheesecakes, steelers, et cetera over chronic complaining. People
here deal with real issues floods, job loss, opioid crisis.
So any frustration is more contextual than a love for misery.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Let me drop that AI in a couple different places
in Pennsylvania and see if it comes back with that
same conclusion. See, that's the problem with AI that they
got to fix is that the AI has to be
able to under stand the realness of what situations, not
not not the factual information that you can grab from
(15:08):
from scanning the entire Internet for all the database of
information that it can do in the quickest time.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
A might not be.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Familiar with the critique of James Franklin locally.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
There, or or Mike Tomlin, or or or the coach
who's the coach in in Philly again?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
What's his name?
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Oh, Sirianni? Yeah, I mean bruh. The dude was coming off.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Of a Super Bowl loss and they were talking about
this man was on the hot seat for his job.
That's Pennsylvania. Mike Tomlin hasn't had a losing season, won
his job. James Franklin hasn't had a losing season and
loses to the same two teams every year. They won
his job. Like that's you. You can't do enough. We
(15:56):
that's just how we're wired. We we're just no excuse
type of and if if something doesn't go the way
that we wanted to go, even if it does go
the way that we wanted to go, there has to
be more or we're gonna complain about it. It's the
weirdest thing, man, It's the weird I don't know that
everybody's like that.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
I know.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
I'm married a person from New Jersey. They could be worse.
They could be worse in theory than what we are
the Southern Jersey. But with that being said, that's like
an extension of Pennsylvania, like South Jersey is like the
Philly side of New Jersey. They complain with a mix
(16:36):
of New Jersey and Pennsylvania in it, and it makes
it a little bit more belligerent, and it's just it's uh,
it's just there it's just there, like it's like New Jersey,
New York. New Jersey is like f off, like forget
about it, f off right, it's just real quick. As
a matter of fact, you know, they love putting their
(16:58):
business on the tabloids. If you made the the cover
of the tabloids, like you're the one that's going to
get complained about. But pretty much everybody's too busy doing
something else. We got closed down meals. We got a
whole bunch of people that are out of jobs, like
blue collar workers, lunch peal, hard hat people. They don't
get the same opportunities that that you know, people back
(17:19):
in the day, simpler forms of living. And we complain,
like we can plain.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
But we do it.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
That's the thing. We get up and we do what
we gotta do, but we will complain. Your god dang
head off all the way off till it's ready to pop, Like, dude,
can you just shut the f up? And that's to
one another. We fight a lot, you know, but we
love each other. We go drink Iron City or we
go drink beers, go see games and stuff like that.
(17:47):
That's why sports are so important to us in PA,
because it's like kind of like our only release of
the other things that we're complaining about. So if we
got to complain about sports that you're going to get
it way worse.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
Yeah, speaking of pain, by the way, guys, I've been
dealing with back pain myself playing looks far too much
golf these days. But I know the right mattress. It
makes all the difference in the world. So mattress firms
sleep experts. They'll help you find your perfect bed for
your unique needs.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
Get matched up.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
Mattress firms beMore, they sail and sleep at night.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
I would like to just also say this one thing
about the people complaining about the start times. What the
hell's wrong with getting a sporting event out of the
way early and having the whole rest of your evening
to yourself. What's wrong with that?
Speaker 5 (18:34):
The kids aren't boozing as much nowadays. Do you know
that the consumption amongst that generation is actually down. That's
why you get a lot of the non alcoholic beer
that's coming around. Well, I've got a buddy who's in
the industry, and he's like, yeah, he's like, our some
of our best selling stuff now is non alcoholic beer
or non alcoholic beverages.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
I mean, listen, nobody's perfect. That's fine. We're not going
to judge people who are too soft to have a
couple of cocktails.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
But look like, what it really means is he has
to pick up the slack for everyone else, which has
any problem doing.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
So what I'm here for because I can tell you this,
A Friday day game at Wrigley Field is among the
best atmospheres you can go to. And guess what. They're
out of there before four o'clock and they just start
letting it fly and they get the whole rest of
the night to themselves. So stop bitching about a twelve
o'clock start. You're out of there by three point thirty
(19:25):
four o'clock and you got your Saturday night plan for you.
Let you do multiple things at once.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
I like that too, But a night game is the ball.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
It's pretty sweet because.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
You get faded the whole entire day. Yeah, stumble your
ass right on into that, gag.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Go honey, the game doesn't start for seven hours. Where
are you going parking? Sorry, gop.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
We are go like, oh Levart is fried?
Speaker 3 (19:58):
Yeah, ready to go score the spikes. Gave spikes playing Damn.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
No, that ain't true, shouts out to the spikes.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
That's where we be.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
You've seen it, Yeah, that's where we be.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Baby, sure, Yeah it is sneakers. Yeah, what up?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
John's it iss on five?
Speaker 3 (20:19):

Speaking of bad songs, Two Pros and a Cup of
Joe Here on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn,
Jonas Knox with you. Coming up a little over fifteen
minutes from now, we are going to try something new here.
There's a big event this weekend and we are going
to try and take a shot at picking a winner
here on the show. That'll be yours here again. A
(21:09):
little over fifteen minutes from now. By the way, a

YouTube channel. Just search Fox Sports Radio on YouTube. You'll

So be sure to subscribe so you never miss our
very best Fox Sports Radio videos on YouTube. So with
(21:33):
that being said, this is something that we did last week.
We decided, you know what, why don't we go ahead
and kind of rattle off maybe some topics we've not
had a chance to get to and to have a
little bit of fun with this. So this is an
honor of the spittoon, it's an honor of the Southwest
cattle call, which Brady calls it Wow Book. And so
(21:55):
with that, it's time for this.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Settle up, partners. Tighten up there, chaps, it's the topic
round up.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
And away we go. Let we start with a man
the NBA has been trying to round up for quite
some time now. Oh and that man is Draymond Green.
Raymond Green, whose Golden State Warriors got an early start
on their golf game as they were eliminated in five
(22:30):
by the Howling Wolves of Minnesota. The Timberwolves get it done,
and Draymond Green was fined fifty thousand dollars by the
NBA because he referenced the betting line while being ejected
in Game three. And for what it's worth, the betting
line he referenced was five and a half. The Warriors
(22:50):
did cover. They only lost by five. Dang, that's close.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
It was clear as day two for those who saw this.
He walked right over and said, I see what you're doing.
He's like, it's five and a half. I mean you
could literally read everything that he was saying to the officials.
It's got to be a no no, can't reference that stuff.
The NBA, more so maybe than any other league, is
(23:17):
that fair to say, has had issues with this in
the past, especially with officials.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
So this is a.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
No no, And no matter how you dice it up,
you've got to expect to get fined if you're gonna
make reference of that.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
You can find, but it's already the damage is already done.
So fifty gs ain't going clean that up.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
I mean fifty.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
You know, I mean, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
The conspiracies with the NBA just continue to keep rolling
out is the gift that just keeps going given.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
And let me tell you, so, don't you feel like
if that's all they have, that's not a good thing.
I mean this, This NBA Playoffs to me, has been great.
It's been pretty competitive series for the most part. The
injuries have stunk and probably taken away from some of that,
but it's been a fun playoff season so far.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
For the NBA.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
And yet here we are talking about the draft lottery,
talking about the officials, and it's like, why can't we
just focus to what's happening in the court.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I will say this, that has been a large part
of pro wrestling culture.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
It's not real, it's scripted. It's fake. Dad, didn't you
just didn't you say that.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
You could bet on on WrestleMania?
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I lost my ass too.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Okay, there's somebody out there that could have helped you
to lose your ass, you know.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
I'm just I had John Cena, but he was a
heavy favorite, so that didn't really do a lot. But yeah,
I lost that.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
That is a tremendously large population that supports WrestleMania, that
supports pro wrestling, So I don't think it's necescessarily a
horrible thing. I just it's just interesting to think that.
Why would you ever want to think that there is
actually fixes involved or setups involved. I think it exists
(25:12):
in every sport, to be honest. That's why I think, Like,
where do like, I know some.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Of the refs. You know two of them.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
You know, Matt Millan was a ref at one point,
Terry Killing's played at Penn State.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
He's a ref. I know some guys, But.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I mean, you'd be trying to figure out where the
hell do these guys come from that be referees, man,
Like they're like, we don't ever look at them like
they're aliens. But maybe they're from a different planet man,
and they're from the planet of manage what's going on
for the better good and the agenda of what.
Speaker 4 (25:40):
We have going on with this sports league?
Speaker 3 (25:41):
And here you're the ones that are there. Here's the
other thing. The NBA to get pissed that somebody is
questioning their integrity by referencing gambling lines when in their
past they had an official who was betting on games,
and they knew that the story was going to come
outpt it under wraps because they were about ready to
(26:02):
sign a deal and inc a big TV deal. Listen,
you deserve whatever criticism and whatever heat you get from
anybody when it comes to this topic. It's like, you know,
finding out, you know, your your wife had an affair
with the neighbor's dog. And the next time you guys
go to pet Smart. You look at her and say, hey,
are we okay in here? Is this a safe place?
(26:23):
And she goes, well, how could you give me a
hard time about this? I'm sorry, It's in your past.
It's on your resume. NBA you had an official bet
on games, it's in your past, it's on your resume.
Deal with the heat. Draymond Green should appeal this fine
and he should not pay a single cent of it.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
First of all, I'm sorry for you, know, your mishap
and your relationship whatever it seems to have scarred you
for life. I would say, get back out there into
the animal sphere, you know, get you a new dog,
you know, go to pet smart. You can get over
(27:01):
this show. That's all I'm going to say is, don't
allow that to dictate the rest of your life and
how you feel about K Nine's and other pets in
pet stores. In fact, even pet store. Uh you know, employees.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
Of that sort.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
We continue on here with our two pros and a
couple of year.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
It was a very dark a mission, by the way,
is a very darksion.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
So speaking of the n b A and I'm gonna
I'm gonna need your guys. Is I'm gonna need your
guys's help with this. Yeah, it doesn't even have.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Thumbs really going to do this. So I've seen trumpa
hump pillow the last few days. I mean, I don't know, man.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Uh So, So speaking of that, speaking of the of
the n b A, I'm gonna need your guys' help
with this because you're both rich. So Paul Allen is
selling his steak, and he's selling his steak in the Blazers,
but he's not selling his steak in the Seahawks. Is
(28:08):
this an admission that maybe, uh, there's real value in
one and the other one I could kind of do
away with. I'd like a little bit more time on
my I don't know.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
It could be the difference in him saying I like
owning a team in Seattle.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
I don't like owning a team in Portland.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Is there something going on in Portland?
Speaker 5 (28:26):
Is that different? I'm just saying, there's all sorts of
considerations you could make, and maybe it's just time that
the family wants to sell that portion in the estate.
It's not uncommon too for families to finally cash in
on the value of their teams.
Speaker 6 (28:42):
I mean, that's the thing is, as an owner of.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
A professional franchise, you are pumping in money to these
things constantly. Outside of the NFL, there's not many that
really generate a ton of cash. You know, most these
owners are making way better money with the business that
they were in to buy the team themselves. So, uh,
you know, you never know what the justification is. But
(29:07):
there's a lot of considerations.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
But maybe it's like.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
When Dame Lillard left for Milwaukee, Paul Allen knew that,
you know, their their last hope was Dame he rolled out.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
I mean, I was really hard. I was really hoping
they were going to get Wemby in the draft lottery.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
You had, you had Clyde Drexler.
Speaker 5 (29:33):
The problem is levard Paul Allen's been dead since twenty eighteen.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
You've had Jerome Cursey in spirit, yes, you had Cliff Robinson.
You still weren't able to get it done. Just let
it go from this life or the after life. Just
let them go. Let it go there you go.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
I mean, I will say this. I know the Blazers
are in kind of a rough spot. It ain't like
the Seahawks are in a great spot, you know for
being honest. So the estate is really looking at this
thing and being and being truthful with themselves. It does
feel like, you know, maybe uh maybe Seattle's you know,
not always looking on the up and up there, you know.
(30:20):
I thing, it feels like things DK Metcalf's gone. It's
a whole new regime. You got Sam Darnold, Jalen Milroe
by the way, did get Rave reviews at.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Getting rave reviews. But you know, the Seahawks have the
twelfth Man, and that is a major part of sports
culture in Seattle.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
They have had success.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
They had the Legion of Boom, they had Mark Shawn Lynch.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
By the way, Matt Strong, best NFL venue I've ever
been to is in Seattle. Seattle is Yeah, it's nice.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
They knock slots. Oh what is it for Rocky?
Speaker 8 (31:01):
That's his favorite place?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Right all right? Locked though, that's just an opinion.
Speaker 5 (31:08):
That wasn't really alright, somebody somebody else we got around.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Let's move too slow, all right, so we we move
on here. Uh. We talked about this a little bit
the schedule release, and some teams out there who have
got a bunch of geeks working on their social media team,
a bunch of uh, you know, pencil pencil neck geeks
the words of the great classy Freddie Blassy back in
(31:36):
the day in the w W f Uh. So we
got these people wearing these people wearing pocket protectors who decide, hey,
let's do Minecraft. Hey to release our videos. Let's do Minecraft,
because apparently Legends of Zelda or any other NERD game
wasn't available at the time, right, And so the Indianapolis
coach decided to take their take their part in it,
(31:58):
and they depicted Tyreek Hill a dolphin getting arrested for
their Week one matchup. So they took the video down.
They apologized yesterday, but Tyreek Hill and his agent Drew
Rosenhaus were like, no, you should have left it up.
We thought it was funny. So at least somebody had
a sense of humor about the whole thing, because you know,
if we're being honest, he did get you know, handcuffed
(32:20):
before Week one last year. So it's not that far
fetched to think it might happen again. Dang in Miami.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
By the way, yeah, talking he didn't have a problem
with it an advantage.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
If he didn't have a problem with it, no one
else should have a problem with it.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
And he didn't. He said, y'all should have left that up.
That was funny. So there you have it.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
I'm upset.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
The depiction of a black man being a dolphin and
being arrested. I am appalled. This is bigger than Tyreek Hill.
Just thought i'd let that be made.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
No, Yeah, that's the h I mean, that was my
bit for today. Yeah, by the way, is any other
dolphin white that was arrested? Are there any white dolphins
that got?
Speaker 1 (33:10):
Very rare instances where you see a white dolphin or
even a pink dolphin?
Speaker 4 (33:15):
They do.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
Porpoises do come in.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
White and pink.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
There you go coming pink, They sure do. Really, Yeah,
there's pink dolphins. There's no way that's real.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I hate them. They are the cousin to the to
the killer well. Killer Wells are named killer Wells, but
they are not Wales. They are, in fact the cousin
of the dolphin. They are a big ass dolphin.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Well, I know, I know the dolphins are gonna be
the cousin of last place this year. That's what I know.
And that call my shot right now. It is uh
and so I think that that'll wrap us up. That
is the the end of two Pros and a Cup
of Joe topic round up for the week.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
So we will there are white, pearl, pink, darker. Say
it's a brown, gray, blue, and black. They come in
array and an assortment of colors.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Jonas, that's not real. Wait there, wait, you've got the
last white dolphin who was arrested.
Speaker 8 (34:30):
The last white dolphin arrested was in two thousand and eight.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Matt Roth.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
Public intoxication.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Guy was a hooligan from the start. I don't have
to say happened. And I was hitting them.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
I thought it was going to be a dolphin incognito
that you threw out. I mean, hey, what he it is?
Speaker 4 (34:48):
What it is?
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Damn By the way, they really are pink dolphins.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
That's a big as dolphin.
Speaker 3 (34:54):

is the second leg of the Triple Crown. Unfortunately, the
horse that won the Kentucky Derby is not racing, so
there will be no Triple Crown winner this year. But
it is the Preakness at Pimlico. And so we thought,
you know, instead of drawing names out of a hat,
(36:31):
some disease ridden hat from a build a Bear workshop
somewhere that we pull names out of in the studio,
why don't we go ahead and let's spin a wheel

(36:53):
