game that we have never ever played before on Fox

(01:02):
minutes here on FSR. Welcome in. Ryan Berschinger's here, Chris
Profeti executive producers who mentioned Mantie Blanells is at the
news desk Knicks Pacers tonight Madison Square Garden. It is
game two, Pacers up, one game to none. As it
sits right now, two hours before game time. How are
(01:23):
you feeling if you're a Knicks fan? Nervous energy? Are
you raging to get this game played? If you're a
fan right now outside of Madison Square Garden, what are
your feelings about tonight's game?
Speaker 4 (01:39):
You gotta be shaking in your boots right, No, there's
no other way around it. And you know the thing
about Knicks fans, man, it is hard being a Nick
and maybe even harder being a Nick fan because they
are tough on their guys.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
They're relentless. I mean, like, I hope they don't rain
down booze.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Well they can quick, and.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
It can turn on you quick.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
And there's a lot of just history, man, Like there's
a lot of I don't know, bad blood would be
the word, but there's just a lot of hurt what
you'll say. And you know, New York is the most
intriguing fan base, I would say in all of sports.
You know, the way the passion that they have for
their team and for their guys. So you know, just
(02:31):
as easy as they're they're all in, they can be
on the other side, and you know, it's it's not
just like it's not just losses, Like there's real.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
Pain when you hear the New Yorkers speak.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Right, Yeah, And it has been for for a while,
decades upon decades. There have been finals appearances ninety four,
ninety nine, but the championship, it's been a long long
time and many of the fans never seeing a Knicks
championship and and not knowing what that experience is like.
(03:03):
And just to get to an NBA finals, as I mentioned,
not it's been what twenty five years, twenty six years
since they had made an NBA finals. So yeah, it's
built up. And it's also a fan base, and you're right,
they are the most complex, Like Philly may be the
most rude. You know, LA's fan base, laid back, DC's
got their fans, Chicago's got theirs. But the complexity of
(03:27):
the New York sports fans, I get it. And I'm
curious about Jalen Brunson, Michael Bridges, Karl Anthony Towns. How
do they view coming back from Game one? I expect
them to bounce back for the team that we thought.
But Ogananobi looked a little shook in Game one, which
was odd because he had great moments in that Celtics series.
Curious to see on how they bounce back as a
(03:49):
player and what's going through their mind, let alone what
the fans are thinking outside.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Well, here's the thing for tips, and I've played in
Eastern Conference finals before. He's going to look back, and
if you New York, you got to focus on the
things you did well, focus on the plays that got
you the lead in the first place, that gave you
a great opportunity to win. And you know, the one
thing that you'll look back and say, you know, glass
(04:13):
half full.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
You know, I think it was what like like like.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Like a minute and a half or fifty two seconds left,
they had a twelve whatever the number was, and say, hey, guys,
if we can take this scenario again, let's close this game.
Put me in this situation ten out of ten times,
let's close this game. Okay, they had their moment, but
they don't get another one if we got to hold
the ball. And the wild thing is New York didn't.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
That was what was so crazy.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Dan is outside of you know, a turnover too or
a player or two there.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
I don't feel like they played bad.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I don't think New York just just necessary, outright choked
the game away, as you know, you you'd like to
you and a couple other people like to say, hey.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
They still made shots.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Yes, your right. The the Anobe eternal over was the
one that killed them, but they could have had three.
Remember Josh Hart saved them on the out of bounds
inbounds throw, oh one of the there was one in
the back court as well. Then they had the turnover
in overtime where Nemhar deflected it and it ended up
going off of Brunson's hand when they were down one.
But you're right, they actually had what I thought could
(05:17):
be good answers or back breaking buckets that answered some
of the Pacers shots that they that they had in
that in that flurry in the final two and a
half minutes, Town's even made a bucket. I think with
about a minute left toil, I'm like, okay, well that's
gonna be the the end. All You're actually right about that.
Like there, it wasn't as poorly played except for the
(05:38):
miss free throws and that bad turnover than it was
of the Pacers just making shots.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
You're You're absolutely correct. And if I'm TIBs, you gotta
play campaign. You gotta get Brunson some type of arrest.
You gotta trust your bench. You gotta go eight deep
because guess what, Indy's going a deep. Indye didn't get
worn down those five thousand brunts, and that that changed
the game because at a certain point, you know, Indiana
(06:04):
probably got six to eight points just knowing he can't foul,
he's gonna file out, so we we get him. Nim
Hard went right down his chest, right at him and
essentially got a lay up because he knew, hey, he
couldn't foil, so he keep brunting out of foul trouble.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
You get a lead like that, you take care of basketball.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
And again, you know you got to press up and
do the little things. And you know, Dan, there's a
big difference. And this is just all the sports, Dan,
and you know about this. You've seen this when you're
the hunter versus hunted. And for the New York Knicks
when they played the Boston Celsics, what were they they were?
Speaker 5 (06:42):
Right?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Dan?
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Am I crazy? They were the hunter? They're beating their chance.
That's against the world. All that New York or New
York right right, you're playing Indy. You're the hunted. Halla
Burton's the most overrated man on the planet. This man
is hunting. He is doing some hunting. And what's wild
to me? And I'm ana poke at you because this
is a sore spot.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
I'm a poke at you. Okay, he just thanke you.
Your bucks got blasted. Your bucks got blasted. And everybody
looked at that game. Oh the Bucks, weren't that good?
Yanna say that the Bucks were good?
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Man, That was a good win, and for some reason,
nobody respected it.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
It was more about Giannis's loss and what's Gianni's gonna do?
Speaker 3 (07:21):
And is he gonna be a.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Rocket, a spur, a Maverick And that was more of
the story than Wow, Halla Burton and those boys did
the thing. Because you're we're talking about the Cavalier series
against the Bucks. He made a crazy shot, weren't Wasn't
it like they were up six or something with seconds
left and that's.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
When his dad came on the court. That game was.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Insane, yep, yep, blew the lead. He had the bucket
with a minute to or a second to go on
the clock that sealed their fate. Absolutely, Bucks had some
bad turnovers then the Bucksmen out have won the series,
but it was an awful way for them to go out.
But yeah, the story at that time was again the
Bucks and that that's the funny thing about the Pacers too,
is as a Bucks fan, the Pacers have always been
(08:04):
in the bucks head. This is not a Bucks conversation,
but it's just the point of for some reason, like
they haven't. They haven't. The pacers haven't risen to that
level of being the hunted. Yet they've been the ones
that have poked, poking the top seeded calves. Right, the
pacers were a higher seed than the bucks. But yet
it almost felt like it was kind of an upset
(08:25):
that and it might not have been like and for
what Indiana has done and shown so far, it's kind
of proved that it hasn't. But I think you're right
when we when we how we look at it and
how we look at them, and you're right about the Knicks.
It's different of being the hunted as opposed to the hunter.
We'll see who comes out tonight. Speaking of being hunted
(08:45):
and being the hunter, we have our own game. It's
time to debut Ryan Hollins in the neighborhood. I'm excited
about this. You will be teaming up. We have teams
of two, Ryan Hollins, You and Chris Purfett, our technical producer,
will be a team, and Monci Belanios at the news
desk will team up with our executive producer, Ryan Berschinger.
(09:07):
You guys can go back and forth. And I've got
three categories, and I've got questions in each of these categories,
and you don't have to give me the exact number,
but I'm going to give you a range of what
you have to be within to get the right answer. Okay,
does that sound fair? So, for example, if I were
to give you in Chris prophetic question, I would say, guys,
(09:30):
within five points, how many points did Oklahoma City score?
And last night's win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Well, if
you said one fourteen, you'd be correct. You'd be in
the neighborhood because they scored one eighteen. And if the
range was five points, you would have one thirteen to
one twenty three. Does that make sense? If you would
(09:52):
have told me one oh eight, you would have lost
because you wouldn't have been in the neighborhood. That's the
name of the game. Are you guys ready to play?
Speaker 7 (09:59):
I think so let's go.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yes, all right, let's strike up the band. I don't
even know what music we have for this. All right,
there we go. Here are your three categories, East, West
and Pote Prairie. Wow, all right, East West and pote
Peirie first of five, win by two. If you're both
there at the end, we'll go to a tie breaker.
(10:23):
Ryan Hollins, you and Chris Purfett get to pick first. Okay,
I've got questions in all of these different categories. I'll
tell you when we've used up all the questions. But
you guys want to go East, West or Pote Perrie first,
Let's go west? All right?
Speaker 8 (10:39):
West is good? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:40):
All right, guys, within within two, within two, you gotta
get within two of this career playoff wins by the Timberwolves.
Anthony Edwards, who threw out this playoff run, became the
all time leader in playoff wins for a Minnesota Timberwolves player.
So within two North or South higher low the number
(11:03):
of playoff wins by the Timberwolves Anthony Edwards. You guys,
can work shop this out together.
Speaker 9 (11:10):
Well, I've got some bad news. I have no idea.
I'm a football guy. So let's see. So they've had
two series so far they would have had.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Yeah, this is all time.
Speaker 8 (11:26):
So eight this year? What else we have?
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Ryan?
Speaker 5 (11:30):
They did good? They lost to Luca, Right, they lost
to Luca.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
Yeah, so that would have been another and I think
that was the first time plus Carrie, So.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
They would have had all these won eight. They won
eight to get to No, they lost in the second round.
M they did not go to conference final. They lost
in the second round. So let's say they won what
two games?
Speaker 5 (11:53):
Made two?
Speaker 9 (11:53):
Three games to two games, So we've got we've got
twelve on the board. For the other two series they
would have they would have won. Is that was that
just the only year we've got two? Is just those
two years?
Speaker 5 (12:02):
Yeah? I don't think they went before. That's why there
was a big say.
Speaker 9 (12:05):
Okay, so yeah, if we say like twelve or like,
we got to be within.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Two yep, so it could be high or low.
Speaker 8 (12:12):
So yeah, like we twelve What was your answer? No?
Speaker 9 (12:17):
No, hold on, because we have to add the two, right,
So fourteen, I think we'd have to say fourteen Is
that right? Maths hard, I'll give you this one that
is twelve plus two. Yeah, yes, yes, I'm doing radio
for a reason.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
All right, So you want to go Do you want
to go fourteen?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
Ryan, Yeah, we'll go fourteen. We'll go fourteen, but two fourteen?
Speaker 3 (12:43):
All right? The number of playoff wins by Anthony Edwards,
who is the most playoff wins all time for the organization,
is twenty, So you're off the mark on that one. Yes,
they actually made it to the conference finals last year.
It wasn't the Conference semis and they did pick up
a couple of wins earlier on and Edwards's career. They
won two games against the Grizzlies in the first round
(13:05):
and then when they lost to the Nuggets as a
when the Nuggets were a one seed in their title run,
they won a game in that series. So twenty was
the answer? Manzi and Bursch, did you know that answer?
Would you have been close?
Speaker 7 (13:16):
But when he thought it was more, we would have
been closer because we knew they went to the West
Final last year, so we were looking at each other
knowing that that was yeah, all.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Right, will you guys get to pick the category? East
West or poulp Pourrie.
Speaker 8 (13:31):
How about potpourri?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Oh okay, oh gosh, all right, within one, within one, yes,
within one. Eastern Conference teams in the Central time zone.
Speaker 7 (13:44):

Speaker 3 (13:46):

in the Central times.

one point comeback I called that. That was Lou Williams.
That was Doc Rivers. Doc Rivers was still coaching. That
was his rookie year.
Speaker 9 (18:33):
If by my recollection, that would put him at like
twenty five or twenty six.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
And then what he was traded the next year? He
played one year at Kentucky. Then he was traded the
next year, right, yeah, to okase. Paul George recently was

Speaker 5 (20:33):
He played one year in Sack and then they traded him.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
And then how long Sack was good the next year
and they were bad the last one year.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
You guys going with twenty six. Yeah, well, guys, he's
actually six years old because he was born on a
leap day. The year is officially twenty five years old.

(21:13):
for Hollins and per Fet. All right, Moncey and Bursch,

Or Poult Pourri pot Prie.
Speaker 8 (21:25):
Let's do it.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Within ten made threes by Caitlin Clark in forty games
last season in the WNBA regular season, So she.
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Was at least making one per game, sure, because she
just broke that whatever she missed one yesterday. She didn't
make one yesterday, so that streak ended. Okay, so we
can assume, yes, how many games you said she's played
so far?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
The forty games last year, how she played yep? Okay, yeah,
so in the forty games she played she made.
Speaker 9 (22:02):
Let's give her to a.
Speaker 7 (22:03):
Game, to a game to be safe.
Speaker 9 (22:05):
I hope that kind of averages out, you know, and
then maybe maybe add ten to it.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
How about we go, okay, so eighty five or ninety yeah,
how about way? How about eight? You just gonna let
me pick? Yeah, yeah, but around eighty five nineties were
going for.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
I think, so it doesn't safe.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Fact, it feels like Ryan thinks that's crazy.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
But all right, let's go.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
You know what, let's go eighty seven.
Speaker 12 (22:33):
Okay, eighty eighty seven, and so seventy seven or ninety seven, yeah,
anywhere in that range you're not in the neighbor one
twenty okay, you got.
Speaker 8 (22:46):
Three a game?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
Wow, Yes, that's where you would have Yes, that would

Speaker 3 (25:06):
Good Fight. Our next guest on Ixen NBA Draft mikey
V part of getting the Game one on one Mikey
Weisenberg joins us here to talk some NBA draft. We're
not just talking about the team still alive in the NBA.
We're talking about those that are also looking ahead the
next year. Mike, get to talk to again.
Speaker 9 (25:22):
How are you.
Speaker 14 (25:23):
I'm doing well, Dan, thanks so much for having me.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Let's get right into it. It doesn't seem like there's
any drama at the top of the draft. Cooper Flag
gonna go number one to the Dallas Mavericks. They've basically
said as much. So I feel that the draft kind
of starts at number two. How many guys are realistically
in play at that number two spot is where a
month away from the draft taking place.
Speaker 14 (25:48):
My feeling is the draft starts at number three, and
number two is most likely going to be Dylan Harper.
I know with San Antonio they already have Deer and Fox,
they have to find Castle. I just think Dylan Harper
seems to be that guy who, you know, you have
a lot of confidence in driving offense, ability to create
(26:11):
for himself and for others, and so I feel like
he's probably that tier I know, positionally and many other
people in the draft community probably like a S. Bailey
as well. But yeah, I feel I'm pretty confident that
number two is likely going to be Dylan Harper, whether
it's san Antonio or somebody trading for the pick.
Speaker 4 (26:33):
How much steak does this draft have with the movement
of Giannis excuse me, the potential movement of Giannis Ance
Dakoupo and how much do you think, you know, shook
up just with Dallas getting that number one pick, they
could trade it obviously, san Antonio getting number two and Wimby,
you know, potentially pairing with Giannis and and and are
(26:54):
these kids good enough in your opinion for Milwaukee to go, Hey,
if we're going to move forward and kind of have
another centerpiece of the organization, you know, one of those
picks could be in.
Speaker 14 (27:06):
Yeah, I would be very surprised if Dallas moved Cooper
flag for Jannis, even though you know the level of
Jannis is at Obviously san Antonio, I think there certainly
is a possibility there. They have two lottery picks, with
the second and fourteenth pick, Stefan Castle is coming off
(27:27):
winning Roocky of the Year, they have other young assets,
and then with Victor win ben Yama coming off the
blood clot issues that he's had, they have Daron Fox
certainly trying to you know, move that title window forward.
Could be an option. So I could see san Antonio
(27:48):
being one of the teams in the sweet stakes for Giannis.
I think Houston is another team. And then of course
you've heard that Giannis is interested in going to New
York and Miami so far. So yeah, there could be
a few teams that put together packages, and I think
that second pick Nick san Antonio very enticing just in
terms of what Milwaukee could possibly get for moving Giannis.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Mikey Weisenberg joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. We're
talking NBA Draft. Find them on X at NBA Draft.
Mikey V's been working for years, did NBA draft dot
Net now doing his own stuff, partnering up with getting
the game one on one. We'll get a little info
on that coming up in a couple of minutes. But
you did say that then the draft starts at three,
(28:32):
So then who is up for grabs for Philadelphia at
that three spot right now?
Speaker 14 (28:38):
Yeah, I think it's it's looking like it's between four
potential players. I would say eighth Bailey, as I mentioned before,
Dylan Harper's teammate A Rutgers.
Speaker 15 (28:48):
Six foot close to six foot nine.
Speaker 14 (28:52):
Great shot making ability, can kind of play either forward
spot as well, and just a lot of potential there.
Young player VJ. Edgecombe, spectacular athlete out of Baylor, shooting guard.
He's most well known for what he does and the
events he creates on the defensive end. Certainly has some
(29:14):
shooting and offensive potential as well. Kon Kin Nipple Cooper
Flagg's duke teammate. I think it is in the running
just because he's such a great shooter, and he brings
more than just three and D. You know, he's a
good playmaker, reads the game really well. And then Trey
Johnson is one of the top scorers in the draft,
another shooting guard with good size and just a high
(29:38):
level shot maker. So all of those guys I think
are in play and are likely to be the you know,
kind of three through six pick.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Is there two questions here? Let's have some fun with this.
One is there a sleeper in this draft that we
don't know about?
Speaker 5 (29:52):
And two?
Speaker 4 (29:53):
Do you remember Ryan Hollins's draft day strengths and weaknesses
from the og uh NBA traft dot net man I
used to live on that website.
Speaker 5 (30:03):
Man.
Speaker 15 (30:05):
Yes, sir Brian, I actually I was looking at it
today just to because to talk to you. So, yeah,
I saw that I did not write your reports store.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Oh god.
Speaker 14 (30:17):
The person that runs dropt dot net, Aaron Smith, I think,
uh was a fan of you, so he wrote that
and uh.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Physical type, hey, Mikey, Mikey physical freak type athlete at
seven feet that's was that was the first line.
Speaker 14 (30:34):
Yeah, and that you were a seven foot high jumper
as well in high school I.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
Had a three and a half inch vertical guys, that
was true.
Speaker 14 (30:43):
Yeah, Ryan, I remember I wasn't called at the same
time as you.
Speaker 15 (30:49):
But yeah, I think.
Speaker 14 (30:51):
As far as a draft sleeper, I know a guy
I like a lot is uh Casperus Jack.
Speaker 15 (30:58):
I think that.
Speaker 14 (30:58):
Yeah, things kind of flowed down is the season progressed
and he had some turnover issues, but I think he
reads the game really well. He's a great shooter, just
had a very solid year Illinois. And then another guy
who I think, oh, one I need to bring up
is I think Cedric Coward is a really interesting player
(31:23):
at Washington State. He only played six games this year.
He had a shoulder surgery, but he just kicks so
many boxes. He's a really good shooter, can put the
ball on the floor as well. And then I think
just what he measured at and his lengths and along
with his skill set, that could really shorten the learning
(31:45):
curve as far as all the other things he might
need to learn in the NBA. So yeah, I know
he is potentially going to duke still and is I
guess on the fence, but it seems more and more
likely like he's going to enter the draft.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Well, this is great stuff. We're going to have to
do it again at least some point between now and
the NBA Draft. Things can always change, moves can always
be made. Mikey tell us a little bit about getting
the game one on one, who you're teaming up with
and what you guys are providing right now on the site.
Speaker 14 (32:17):
Well, Dan, so this is our fourth straight year of
doing the NBA Draft. Cohort class that we're doing it
started on May twentieth, but people can still join up
and we have everything is recorded. We have a lot
of great speakers. My friend John Ross started getting Game
one oh one when he had people just asking him
(32:38):
over and over again. He was with the Portland Trailblazers
for fifteen years how to get jobs in basketball, and
it just gives like a complete full view of what
the NBA draft process is like, and you get We
have these blind resumes done by Bjorn Zetterberg who was
in analytics with the Trailblazer and the Orlando Magic, and
(33:02):
we have little drafts of those and then that last
week we have a big mock draft. But we have
fantastic speakers that are we have some former players, we
have coaches, we have Kendrick Cheney who was part of
the medical team in Portland, and just a lot of
people giving great insight into what their process was getting
(33:26):
the job in basketball and what the NBA draft looks
like from the inside.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Well, that's awesome, and again they can find you at
NBA Draft Mikey V. We appreciate it. We'll talk to
you again, som Mike, you appreciate it. Have a good one.

He's Ryan Hollins, I'm Dan Byer. We are in for
Cavino and Rich today Again, thanks to Mike Weisenberg for
joining us. Talking some NBA draft. Mike, you brought up
the point of because he used to previously write for
NBA draft dot Net, and I brought up your profile.
I went to the strengths. Do you want to just
stick to the strengths right?
Speaker 5 (34:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's sick today.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
Huge wingspan runs the floor well. His length and athleticism
gives him an advantage inside. An excellent shot block, especially
weak side, cleans the glass well with his length and
leap bill Oh. He has added some strength in his
senior year, but needs more. His great physical attributes. He
(35:07):
has a lot of potential, but has struggle to improve
his skill set.
Speaker 5 (35:11):
Hey hey, hey, hey, hey, you're saying that was my strength.
Oh what's going on? That's not a strength.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
The only thing weakness is that just said weakness a
weak physically, decision making must improve and free throw shooting
is below average? Is that? Would you agree or disagree
with that?
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (35:33):
Ten years later, man, I'm thankful to have even been
a part of the process of the NBA Draft and
Dan Byer, that's excellent homework by the two of you.
You guys threw me off. I thought I would love it,
you know, putting you guys on the spot.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
You had. You had an overall score of eighty six
according to NBA Draft.
Speaker 5 (35:50):
Oh that's eight.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
It's pretty good. You got high marks and everything accept strength,
So that was the only thing. You just had to
add the muscle and.
Speaker 5 (36:00):
All it was I did. I did?
Speaker 4 (36:02):
Yeah, And you know what, that shows some accuracy because look,
I played ten years in the association and I did
at strength.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
Absolutely, kudos to you. It's still there if you want
to find it tonight. The Ryan Hollins NBA Draft dot
in Net preview picture too. Yes, there is, Yes, there
is looking good as always. Here's the great thing about
Cavino and Rich. They'll have a topic that will pop
up one month and then you won't hear about it
for fourteen months, and it pops up again. Something popped
(36:32):
up in Ryan Berschinger's email, our executive producer, Ryan laid
on us.
Speaker 10 (36:37):
So a couple months ago from my bachelor party, I
went to spring training in Phoenix and over that weekend
we went to a couple games. One of the games
we were going to go to was the Rangers at
Rockies at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick Resort and Casino. However,
that game was rained out, which is hilarious because the
reason why spring training takes place in places like Phoenix
and Florida is so that sort of thing doesn't happen.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
But it did happen.
Speaker 9 (37:01):
Me and my friends all had tickets to this game
just to be in the outfield, but because it was
rained out, of course, we did not get to go.
Our tickets were refunded. I bought these tickets through Rockies
dot Com. All of us did, and we noticed a
few weeks after that we all kept getting emails.
Speaker 10 (37:20):
From Rockies dot Com and all of us. I have
attempted to unsubscribe multiple times. None of us have been
able to successfully unsubscribe. All of us are in perpetuity
getting emails from Rockies dot Com. In fact, just this
morning I got an email from Rockies dot Com saying,
this weekend at coors Field, celebrate Memorial Day weekend.
Speaker 8 (37:40):
What the Yankees are in town.
Speaker 9 (37:42):
I know this because I still get their emails regardless
of what I do.
Speaker 8 (37:46):
So yep, you know what.
Speaker 10 (37:48):
Sorry, Rockies, I'm glad your team is bad because you
do not stop emailing me.
Speaker 8 (37:53):
I've tried.
Speaker 10 (37:54):
I don't want these anymore, and I keep getting them.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
You could check out any time that you can never
leave the line. Because I went to a Cleveland Browns game,
and I've told see it out of this story. I
went to a game in two thousand and eight and
I got I got an email a week ago saying
last chance to get your tickets. And it was eighteen
years ago that I went to a seventeen years ago,
(38:18):
I'm still getting emails to the Cleveland Browns. It is NonStop.
These teams are relentless. Oh my goodness. All right, let's
lay it on the line.
Speaker 16 (38:29):
Base guys, you know that right. Apparently you haven't worked
commission based jobs. Unsubscribed still doesn't work. I don't even
think the Browns give unsubscribe. All right, we got ten
seconds here at Ryan Hollins, Who do you like tonight?
Pacers are Knicks in game two, and.
Speaker 5 (38:46):
I'm telling you after that game I like the Pacers.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Wow, the Pacers going up two oh. According to Ryan
Hollins on the New York Knicks, I think the Knicks
bounce back. I say the Pacers are good. I just
don't know if they're great. We'll find out more tonight.
He's Ryan Hollins. I'm Dan Bayer. Have a safe Memorial
Day weekend.
