Speaker 6 (01:09):
What's up? How are we?
Speaker 4 (01:11):
We are great? Ryan Berschinger, our executive producer today it's
going on burs And Chris Purphett, our technical producer, hanging
out Hi, Yes, group effort here on Fox Sports Radio.
And Ryan Hollins Tonight at last check, three hundred and
ninety seven dollars to get into tonight's Game two. Maybe
(01:32):
not hot as hot of a ticket as it was
for Game one, but still a significant price to pay
if you want to be in the garden tonight? Is
it worth the four hundred bucks if you're a Knicks
fan to pony up for that ducat this evening? It is?
Speaker 7 (01:50):
And you know, you don't get opportunities like this all
the time. I think, if you have a chance to go,
you've got to go. It's going to be the hottest
thing in town. And you know it, Dan, We've talked
about this. When the Knicks are good, whether you love
them or hate them, it's good for basketball.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Man.
Speaker 7 (02:04):
They have such a fan base. There's such a thing,
you know, and you would think that the better players
on the Western Conference side, you got an MVP, you
got potentially Anthony Edwards the next face of the league.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Nobody wants to watch that game.
Speaker 7 (02:19):
I mean, we watched it, but as a whole, it
was that Knicks game Knicks Indiana that brought it out.
And with all due respect, clearly Indiana wasn't, you know,
the team that everybody knew about.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
They want to see the Knicks now. There's obviously things
are more expensive in New York. There is more pizazz,
and let's be honest, the Knicks have the home court
right now, so they had games one and two. But
for example, Minnesota down two zero in their series with
the Thunder, lowest price ticket for tomorrow night's game in
Minneapolis is one hundred and twenty two dollars. It's the
(02:50):
lowest price that you can get on the secondary market,
if you're following the secondary market that ESPN has up
on their web page. I'm sure there are other tickets
that are priced somewhere in the ballpark, but the point being,
it's about one hundred and twenty bucks to get into
the Timberwolves and Thunder tomorrow night with their home team
being down two to oh as opposed to the four
(03:12):
hundred dollars for tonight's game two in New York. When
the Knicks are down one. Oh, but this also on
the heels of where it was like one thousand dollars
to get in game one, Like there's still a buzz though,
to get into the to the arena. And that's kind
of where we take today's Cavino and Rich show in
terms of tickets, what's worth it, what's not worth it?
(03:34):
And not even Ryan how much would you pay, but
just the simple fact of how do you pick? How
do you go about deciding, because not everybody like, yeah,
we're gonna see Ben Stiller at all the games because
he's Ben Stiller, and Tracy Morgan's gonna be there, and
just like the Laker fans, they've got their season tickets,
(03:55):
we're going to see them every game. But that's not
the average fan, and I feel that they're There is
a lot that goes into the average fan and deciding
if you're going to go to a game or not,
whether it's just a normal game or one with high
stakes like the playoffs. There's just a lot that goes
into deciding on if you're going to go to that game,
do you save the money for another contest? There's a
(04:16):
lot that goes into it. Yeah, no, it does.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
I mean, I think you gotta go, you gotta support,
and you got to understand just New Yorkers have a
love hate relationship with their team and that's just kind
of like what it's gonna be. And I guess it's
kind of like the unrest of being a New Yorker.
You know, you they love and hate the Knicks. I mean,
if you heard the passion that they speak about their
(04:41):
team with, it's you know, like they I mean, you
don't know if they again, I guess they equally love.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
And hate them.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
And there's just a unique thing Dan Bier's about being
a New Yorker that I, as a California guy, don't
necessarily understand. But I mean they're just full on bashing
and crazy words that it it gets the you know,
it's a true obsession, man, it really is.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
I get it. I totally understand you.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
I do.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
I hear you talk like that, though when it comes
to you know, your team or teams.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Well, my team got ousted in five games by the Pacers,
and what has been a a boring lull of season
after season ever since they were ousted by the Celtics
in the Eastern Conference semifinals, like there was hope that
when the Bucks got Damian Lillard it did provide energy.
And then you're like, wait a second, these ingredients aren't mixing,
(05:38):
and so now you're like, Okay, here's more of the same.
The Bucks can't make it out of the first round,
so it's tough to get up and excited for it.
But I will say this in two thousand and one,
in deciding to get tickets for the Bucks playoff run,
I went to game one of their Eastern Conference semi
final series against the Charlotte Hornets. And the reason that
(05:59):
I went to game one was because he was on
a weekend. I didn't live in Milwaukee. I lived about
two and a half hours away. Was in one of
my early radio jobs, and we scored tickets for game
one of their series against Charlotte. And when you're talking
about decisions, and you're talking about decisions as fans, everything
(06:22):
is not like all games aren't up for discussion. There
were fans that were priced out of Game one. So
for as much as you wanted to go to game one,
there are just some fans that aren't gonna pony up
for the tickets. In my case of looking at the schedule.
I didn't know if there was going to be a
game seven, had no idea if they were going to
(06:43):
go seven games against Charlotte. They ended up doing that.
They ended up winning and facing the sixers of the
Eastern Finals. But what I did is I cashed in
my chips and said, We're going to game one of
the Eastern Semis against Charlotte. And it was amazing. And
I still have the towel from the game twenty four
years later, So I do know something about that. Manzi
(07:03):
Blanos is a Clippers fan.
Speaker 6 (07:05):
I was ready, right, you know.
Speaker 8 (07:08):
That's why I love you so much, because I was
cheering for you for for you know, for when I
was little, and I just like I not, so you're.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Not that little. Don't do don't do that.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Don't do that game.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
I do that to damn buyers. How do you do?
But you don't do that to me.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
I'm just joking, but you know, you know that I
was ready to drop thousands of dollars because I thought
I was going to the finals.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Ryan, I like, I was, I'm ready to go to
the finals. I'm ready, I'm ready. And then you know,
and then did.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
You You went to a playoff game, didn't you?
Speaker 8 (07:36):
I did, of course I know, but I was saying
I would have dropped even more money for the finals.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
But I did go to a playoff game.
Speaker 8 (07:43):
Uh, and it was you know, not not four hundred bucks,
but I had some some pretty good seats.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
But yeah, no, I was ready. I was ready.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
You have to you have to go, Like if you're
a Knicks fan, they haven't been in the Eastern Conference
finals in twenty five years, Madison Square Garden, Like, you
have to try and go, there's no question.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
What but what game did you did you go to?
Speaker 8 (08:03):
I went to Game four, so game two at into
It Dome, which was on a Saturday, and that was
a driving force. Yes that I that it wasn't a weekday,
because yes, all of.
Speaker 6 (08:16):
That did matter.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
But I was like, I have to go, like I'm
gonna go, and you can't wait because like obviously you
don't expect your team to get swept or like a
gentleman sweep, so you kind of have to like pull
the trigger early, even though you wanting to be at
a game seven is also like awesome, but you can't
you know, plan for that.
Speaker 6 (08:33):
So yeah, no, you gotta pull the trigger. You gotta go,
you gotta go.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
This is but this is what Mansy was saying that
leads up to it. And the Game four that she
saw was you saw you saw the comeback, right yeah?
Speaker 9 (08:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (08:46):
No, no, yeah, I saw the Aaron Gordon yes, yes, and.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Then the put back and that shouldn't begin.
Speaker 6 (08:53):
It should not have counted no one.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Yeah that was reviewed, yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:58):
No, the probably sorry, So I just let me just
say this. The problem was that in that moment, I
don't believe any of those refs knew what the answer was.
So you should have said, no, it's not a good basket,
then go review it and then you can overturn it.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
But then you can't overturn when you call it good.
Like that's what should have happened.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Sure, let's litigate calls from a month and a half ago.
Let's absolutely do it.
Speaker 6 (09:22):
And you brought it up.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
But no, but the reason, the reason and I and
this is this is what's great. Is the reason I
brought it up is because whatever you paid for, you
will always have that story.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Absolutely so.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
And Ryan, I don't know if you have this experience
because you're a player, and maybe it is in a
different way, but there is something about having that story
good or bad. Now, you could be a Clippers fan,
and obviously Moncey wanted the Clippers to win Game four,
but for whatever price that she paid for the ticket,
(09:58):
And you don't have to don't You don't have to
say it. It's not important. But the Clippers won in
a blowout in Game three. Who's got the better story
for the rest of their lives for what they paid for?
Would you have loved to blowout win for the price
that you paid for the ticket? Granted your team didn't
(10:19):
win Game four, Dan, you know the answer to that.
I'm just saying I see a loss.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
Yeah, I know what Dan is saying.
Speaker 8 (10:27):
In fact, Ryan Berschinger and I just talked about this
with the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks, where the show.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
Heo Tawny won them the game in Arizona, and.
Speaker 8 (10:37):
It's like, at least they get to say show heyo
Tawny beat us, not like James Autman. You know, like
I get what you're saying, Like there's moments you're gonna
remember a blowout. I'll be like, oh, yeah, they won, yay,
and but I may not remember details. I will never
forget Aaron Gordon's dunk.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
Yeah, I realver.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
I know the Bucks won Game one twenty four years ago.
I've forgotten everything that happened in the game, but I
know with my towel that I was telling you about
in the pregame as everybody in the starting lineups are.
Me and my buddy are going nuts. You know, we're
waving our towel, We're doing we're doing everything. You know
(11:14):
that just losing our minds because it's Game one of
a playoff series. But that's the stuff that sticks with
you if you were a Dodger fan. We were just
in for Doug Gottlieb show. I brought up the World
Series looking back on that, if you were a Dodger fan,
would you want to go to the Game five clincher
or would you rather have been there Game one when
(11:35):
Freddy Freeman hit his Grand Slam. And the reason I
say this is because I think everybody would choose the
Grand Slam, just like they would choose Kirk Gibson's home
run against the A's in eighty eight. Is you never
know what you're going to get. And so there's this
when you're talking about like four hundred dollars, if it
fits in your schedule and you can afford the money.
(11:56):
You got to do it because every person is not
going to be able to go this The same people
that were in Game one of Pacers Nicks, Yeah, Ben
Stiller and Tracy Morgan are gonna be there again for sure.
Put the upper deck. I don't know, maybe changes over
fifty percent, seventy five percent, eighty percent people are going
to one game and and that's what I think is
just it's so interesting about these playoffs. If you're in
(12:17):
Manzi situation, you get a classic game that you had
no idea, just ended up fitting into your schedule. But
she was like, I have to go, and so ultimately
to your point, Ryan Hollins, is you gotta go. But
it's just not realistic for everybody to go to every
single game. Some people can, most people can't.
Speaker 7 (12:34):
If you choose, I never want to see a loss
a team that I'm emotionally invested into, a team that
you have history with, that you cheer for, you know
how long it's. I don't care if it's a blowout
in the first quarter. I don't care if half the
other team is injured. I want to see a win.
I do not want to.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
See a close loss.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
Nothing sits well if you are truly invested in your team.
And I stand by that, Like there's no excitement, like
oh get him next time, Like I'm frustrated, Like we
ain't happy.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
We ain't good, we ain't nothing. It's there is is.
It's incredibly unsettling. So I hear you, like, wow, it was.
I mean, in due time in twenty years, Monce's story
is better because she was at that game. And that's
the point of the segment. I'm just saying, I agree
with you. You want your team to win. I felt awful.
(13:30):
I'm a Seahawks fan. I've been a Seahawks fan since
I was seven years old. Oh, Milwaukee Seahawks, what's going on, dude.
Dave Craig, the former quarterback, was up from near my
hometown where I grew up in north central Wisconsin, and
I got to meet the Seahawks when they played a
game in Milwaukee when I was seven years old. So
I've been a Seahawks fan ever since. I was fortunate
(13:51):
enough to be at MetLife Stadium when they beat the
Broncos in Super Bowl forty eight. Was there on a
media pass. I didn't pay a dime for but in
an amazing, amazing experience. I felt awful for the Broncos
fans that I saw there that ponied up the thousands
of dollars that it took to go and watch their
(14:12):
team in the Super Bowl, and to do so in
a city like New York where it's expensive more than others.
It's a Super Bowl week, so you know, prices are
gonna be up, like there's a lot of cost. And
they end up losing forty three to eight, you know,
And I mean it's just a complete domination by the
Seahawks in winning that game. And I felt bad for
(14:32):
the Broncos fans in like paying up for that money.
But beforehand, you know what they're saying, Oh, I gotta go,
gotta go to the super Bowl, Gotta be there, Gotta
be there. Then in hindsight, so there's a lot of
different sides to this. Ryan Berschinger is our executive producer.
Speaker 10 (14:50):
So in twenty seventeen, I went to Game six of
the World Series. The Dodgers were down three to two
going into too Game six. I did not have tickets
for that game until that morning. In fact, when my
ticket was purchased, I was asleep. I didn't know that
it happened because a couple of my friends were texting
(15:11):
me that morning being like, hey, there's tickets. They're like
half the price because the Dodgers might lose the World
Series and people don't want these tickets. They were super
high up, but it was not too bad. And then
I'm looking at these texts as after I wake up,
and of course the last one is like, we bought them.
We figured you'd want to do it anyway, So and
I did, and I went and it was incredible. It's
(15:33):
the coolest experience I've ever had at a sporting event.
That Dodgers did win that game, But to Manzie's point,
I did have the perspective going into it of thinking,
you know what, worst case scenario, I'm going to witness
a team win a World Series and that is history
that you're going to witness in person, as much as
it would hurt to witness, and eventually I ended up
(15:55):
being even more painful than I thought it would be.
But as much as it would hurt to watch the
Dodgers lose that game in person, there is still the
perspective of knowing that for the rest of my life
I would have saw a team win a World Series
in person. But of course they ended up winning that
game and it was an absolute blast night. And I'm
so happy that we did drop the money and I'm
(16:16):
so happy that my friends just bought me that ticket
knowing I'd be super down for it.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Great perspective, and I think that's the point of the
whole thing is. And to Ryan, we actually are agreeing,
like the outcome is almost by chance, whatever it is,
it is, but if you can go, go, and I
just don't think that everybody has the same opportunity. Manzi
just says she's going to a playoff game, there's no
(16:44):
doubt about it. She's gonna be at into it, dome
what fits best for her schedule. Like that's because yeah,
if the games are on weeknights and she's working and
there's not that. It's the same thing with me. I
had to drive two and a half hours. I couldn't
have gone to any of the Bucks game at that
point if it was a weeknight because I had to
work the next morning. And I think people are in
that in that spot, and in Bursch's scenario, what I
(17:07):
guess probably happened, and Roun you could back me up
on this is you had the perspective to say, well,
I'm a baseball fan. I want to see history where
Dodger fans are saying, you know what, I'm not gonna
spend the money in game six, but if there is
Game seven, I'm going to go, which probably affected the
prices in game six, which allowed you to get those tickets.
So there's there's a lot to it. It's it's a
(17:28):
it's a juggling game. So I guess what I'm saying is,
Twin Cities, go to the Timberwolves game tomorrow if you can. Like,
that's where it is, because if you don't go tomorrow,
if they lose, then it's three oh, and you're not
gonna want to go to game four. Game four is
when your team is down three to zero, you models
to go to a funeral like that. That's all that
it is like, there's there is there is no there
(17:48):
is no excitement. You know your team is back against
the wall and it's probably not going to happen even
if they win. You know, it's okay, well we're still
down three to one. They have to win Game five
and then come back here for games. So I guess
the point is is go when you can? Is that far.
Speaker 7 (18:06):
If you hadn't seen it before? I agree, I get it,
But I would just say, if you have seen it before,
nobody wants to see your team lose. But it's like, hey,
I've never seen it, I've never been a part of it.
There's you know, a lot of festivities, a lot of
stuff going on.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
I get it, I understand it.
Speaker 7 (18:23):
I'm not arguing that I'm not a Debbie Downer, okay.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
And I'm not saying that Manzi should be happy her
team lost on a lot of buzzer beat dunk.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
You mean her sounds sound pretty excited about it.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
I mean no, what I'm saying is, twenty years from now,
when you're looking back at that play and you're talking
about history, that's the one that comes up at parties.
So that's the one that you're talking about twenty years later,
and you're giving the first hand experience of what happened
in the situate.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
Let me let me say this, Manzi, did you feel
there was still optimistic.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
Hope for this series in that moment? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Like, well, like after the game and after the game,
you're walking out, you're talking with your Yeah, you're with
I did.
Speaker 8 (19:06):
I mean, I thought they were winning the series up
until you know, Game seven, really, so I did have hope,
but I felt I felt really gross from that game.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
But I was like, all right, we gotta, we gotta
all right, it's not over. It's not over.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
It was also just how in game one they were up,
like what fifteen also lost it, So it was just
like frustrating. But yeah, like I that is a moment
I will I will never forget, like the air was
sucked out of into a dome, you know, And even though.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
It's not great, it's not great.
Speaker 8 (19:39):
I think from just being a basketball fan, it's a
pretty cool game to have been witnessing in person.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
I think it's I think it's awesome. I'm sorry that
the Clippers lost. Yeah, no, I mean just to that point.
And I think like with the Dodgers, and I think
that Burschinger's example was was great. There are people who
are like, oh, I want to save up for Game seven,
and they maybe they did, and then they just had
their team lose. And I don't think that in Game seven,
you're like, well, at least I get to see a
World Series win, Like you're going to that game with
(20:08):
your team tied, burst at least had the perspective knowing
that the odds weren't in a favor, so let's make
something good out of this. And then he ends up
seeing a win and seeing a World Series win in
a game six, which forces a game seven, which gives
everybody hope. The point being is, I think four hundred
dollars is cheap for tonight. So go if you can,
if you had the opportunity. And I don't know times
(20:30):
ticking tip off is in two and a half hours,
but it's just the point of get that opportunity, Minneapolis,
go in game three if there is a comeback series.
That's the other great thing when I talk about the series,
at least with the Hornets, the Bucks one and in seven.
So game one was the furthest one away, but it
still was like, hey, we saw a game in a
series that they won. And that's to Hollin's point is
you want your team, you want your team to win,
(20:52):
So if you have the opportunity, go do so. And
not everybody has that opportunity because there are people who
are driving for hours and have other plans and it's
guess what graduation season, So graduations are going on, and
other things are happening, and it's a Memorial Day weekend
and people are traveling, so a lot happening. But if
you can go to the game, I think that's our
(21:14):

Speaker 4 (23:10):
Covino and Rich here on a Friday at Fox Sports Radio,
guys run for Dan Patrick. So you got me, Dan
Byer and Ryan Hollins, the NBA vet sitting in. Let's
waste no time. Monte Bolanos is at the news desk.
You can hear her Sundays five o'clock Houston Top two
Pacific with Carrie Rhodes. And years back we developed a
segment fit for the one and only Monty Blos and
(23:32):
it's called.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
And now it's time for absolutely it's according to Monci,
I love.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
It, Monty. I have to ask now that it's kind
of you know, yeah, you're and Carry's show on Sundays. Yeah,
do you even do according to Manzie, because the whole
show's got to.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
Be according exactly, I don't do it on Sundays anymore.
But I did just do a segment of this with
Aaron Torres and.
Speaker 11 (23:57):
Uh and j mart So they philled in for Steve
Disager while he was on vacation, and then I did
a little according to Wazis, so it makes an appearance
every now and then.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Yeah, I love it. According to Munson, Okay, let's get
to it, Ryan Hollins. You can't just keep stinking with
no consequences.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
Oh well, that's not the word I said. But five
you're getting at PG. Okay, you guys, the Colorado Rockies.
Speaker 12 (24:22):
I get that, like teams go through slumps, right, but
they are on pace to be worse than the White
Sox were last year, which was the worst in the
modern era.
Speaker 8 (24:32):
They're also gonna be just the worst ever in baseball,
like in all the years of baseball. They're good, They're
on pace to have the worst record. Here is my problem.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
This will be.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
The fourth season in a row that they will be
in last place in the division. I went back and
looked at every division the last four years.
Speaker 6 (24:50):
There has not.
Speaker 8 (24:51):
Been the same team that has been in last place.
There's gotta be consequences. This will be the fourth year
in a row. I feel like after three years, if
you're team is in the last place in the division again,
you gotta be fine.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
The owner has to be fine.
Speaker 8 (25:04):
You get to year four, maybe you lose a chunk
of home games. You get to year five of being
in last place in your division again, you have to
sell the team. The Rockies aren't even trying. Like if
you looked at their lineup, they are not even trying.
I think I may be able to play right field.
Like I'm seriously like, I'm so.
Speaker 6 (25:24):
Over it because it sucks for the fans. And if
you look at Rockies games, there's actual fans in the stands.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
They they are there to support their team, and the
owners don't.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
The owner whoever it is, doesn't care. And I feel
like there's gotta be.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
Consequences when you keep being the worst team in your
division year after year, when no other division has that.
Speaker 6 (25:43):
Guys, I looked division, Yes, not.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
Cool something, but Oklahoma City, Iowa cuffs.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
I love that.
Speaker 8 (25:54):
I love that idea as well. I just feel like
money is what hurts owners. So it's like you gotta
give them a big fine and like yeah the three years,
than something the fourth year and then the fifth year
you're out, Like I'm over it.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
This sucks.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
Uh, they also suck. They do. I couldn't. I couldn't
say that. I needed some context to what I was saying,
but it is awful. Bud Black's on the contract at
the end of the year, an extension, like a one
year extension. But they're like, all right, this is so awful,
you're gone. I guess Bud Black is the only one
feeling the consequences of.
Speaker 6 (26:24):
An awful team, and he probably hasked to be fired.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yes, as a summer, I tell you, you.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Don't want to be there.
Speaker 9 (26:31):
According to Monsey, right, Hollands.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
You're up.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
According to months.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I mean, no, I get it. I understand the frustration.
Speaker 7 (26:42):
I don't think it's as easy as sending a team
down to.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
The Double A. But that's not realistic. Yeah, I just
play that up, But no, I like it.
Speaker 7 (26:51):
You can get draft prospects you are supposed to. You know,
they're they're farming players. I assume developed. It's called development.
Speaker 9 (27:00):
According to Monsey.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
To Mazi, more money, more problems.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, guys, more money, more problems. We've all
heard that.
Speaker 8 (27:09):
But you know who I think is just starting to
realize what that means. It'swan Soto. Sodo left the Yankees'
largest contract in professional sports.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
We all know that, you guys.
Speaker 8 (27:17):
I really don't think he knew what was gonna come
with that contract, The responsibility of like you are now
the guy You're still in New York, a.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
Tough market, and I don't think he.
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Was ready to be the guy. I'm not even talking
about the slump, y'all.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
He legit. I think he's sad. I think he regrets
his decision.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
Last Sunday, he did not hustle out of the box
on a ground.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Ball up the middle. He just casually trotted to first base.
Speaker 13 (27:40):
Could have been an enfield hit in an eighth inning
game of a tied game against two the Yankees against
the Red Sox guys, he didn't even swing Garrett Crochet
through six strikes. One was the ball he just struck
out looking just stood there.
Speaker 6 (27:55):
Juan Soto, how much money are you making to stand there?
How do you not swing at all? Y'all? I really do.
Speaker 8 (27:59):
Think he regrets his decision, and I think he's sad.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
It has nothing to do with the slump. It is
just everything else going around the slump.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
Watching him not swing at Garrett Crochet's strikes was ridiculous.
Speaker 9 (28:14):
He's According to Monsey, there's a politician in the NBA.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Yeah, y'all, we all believe Draymond Green should have been
a finalist for Defensive Player of the Year.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Since when, Since why when?
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Jimmy?
Speaker 8 (28:24):
When Jimmy Butler got to the Warriors, was a junior
was a dramond.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
He just kept talking on TNT on his podcast, He's like,
I'm good. Put me should you should have been.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Rich? He's Ryan, I'm dead. Monzs here too.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
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 Moncie Belanos at
the news desk will team up with our executive producer,
Ryan Berschinger. You guys can go back and forth. And
(29:17):
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 perfhetic question,
I would say, guys, within five points, how many points
(29:41):
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 point eighteen,
And if the range was five points, you would have
one thirteen to one twenty three. Does that make sense?
If you would have told me one o eight, you
(30:01):
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 6 (30:07):
I think so let's go.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
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
Pirie first of five, win by two. If you're both
there at the end, we'll go to a tiebreaker. Ryan Hollins,
(30:33):
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 Poulte Perrie first,
Let's go west? All right?
Speaker 3 (30:47):
West is good? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:49):
All right, guys, within within two. Within two, you gotta
get within two of this career playoff wins by the
Timberwolves Anthony Edwards, who, throughout 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
(31:11):
of playoff wins by the Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards. You guys
can work shop this out together.
Speaker 14 (31:19):
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.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Yeah, this is all time, so eight this year? What
else we have?
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Ryan, they did good? They lost to Luca, right, they
lost to Luca.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Yeah, so that would have been another and I think
that was the first time plus Carrie.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
So they would have had all these one eight they
won eight to get to No, they lost in the
second round. They did not go to the conference final.
They lost in the second round. So let's say they
win what two games made two to three.
Speaker 14 (32:02):
Games to two games, So we've got we've got twelve
on the board for the other two series that would
they would have won? Is that was that just the
only year we've got to is just those two years?
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Yeah, I don't think they went before.
Speaker 7 (32:11):
That's why there was a big oare okay?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
So yeah, if we say like twelve or like, we
got to be within.
Speaker 4 (32:18):
Two yep, so it could be a high or low.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
So yeah, like we twelve what no?
Speaker 4 (32:24):
Is your answer?
Speaker 3 (32:25):
No?
Speaker 8 (32:25):
No?
Speaker 14 (32:25):
Hold on, because we added have to add the two, right, So.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Fourteen I think we'd have to say fourteen?
Speaker 4 (32:32):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Maths hard?
Speaker 10 (32:35):
I'll give you this one that is twelve plus two.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Yeah, yes, yes, I I'm doing radio for a reason.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
All right, So you want to go Do you want
to go fourteen?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Ryan?
Speaker 4 (32:48):
Yeah, we'll go fourteen. We'll go fourteen, but two fourteen?
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 in Edwards's career. They
(33:11):
won two games against the Grizzlies in the first round
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 6 (33:24):
But he thought it was more.
Speaker 8 (33:26):
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 4 (33:35):
Right, Will you guys get to pick the category East
West or Poultpourrie?
Speaker 3 (33:39):
How about Potpourrie?
Speaker 8 (33:40):
Ohky, oh gosh, all right?
Speaker 4 (33:46):
Within one, within one, yes, within one? Eastern Conference teams
in the Central time zone.
Speaker 6 (33:52):
Ooh, Ryan, that's all you've had.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
Okay, I know Manzi's love of geography.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Chicago. Uh question, Hold.
Speaker 6 (34:05):
On a second. You just confused me with that answer.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
East the number of Eastern Conference teams okay, that reside
in the Central times.
Speaker 6 (34:14):
Okay, yeah, all you ran? I?
Speaker 3 (34:18):

the listener to? Okay?
Speaker 12 (34:23):
Okay, f okay, okay.

I think Detroit is central time, okay. And then we're
going down the map a little bit. Oh man, I
don't know where the the where the border is.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
We're gonna need a final answer. We're also, by the way,
only gonna go to three points five is the map?
Speaker 10 (35:18):
Three is where we go in the neighborhood is let's
go within one's four disgusting.

Yes, nine, you're in the house.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
Yes, you're not only in the neighborhood, you're in the house.
It is not right.
Speaker 14 (37:55):
I'm going to be brutally honest, I thought there was
an ex at the end.
Speaker 4 (38:00):

a ballgame. East Western polt Porie, Hollinson, Purfet Europe.

Sga was a rookie when I did the Clippers, right,
and Matzi, what year did I cover the Clippers?
Speaker 4 (38:27):
That was the thirty one point comeback?
Speaker 7 (38:30):
Right, there's a thirty 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 14 (38:41):
If by my recollection, that would put him at like
twenty five or twenty six.
Speaker 7 (38:46):
And then what he was traded the next year. He
played one year at Kentucky. Then he was traded the
next year.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
Right to.
Speaker 7 (38:54):
Okase. Paul George recently was who he was traded for.
This is Paul yours first year in Philadelphia. He played
with Chris Paul there, I think twenty seven.

I was okay, twenty six seven, twenty seven, okay, twenty
seven twenty seven.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
You guys are in the neighborhood. He's twenty six right now,
on his way to being twenty seven. You got the point, congratulations,
two points right.
Speaker 6 (39:22):
Now, sick and I knew that answer. I knew that
answer right away.
Speaker 4 (39:27):
All right, Monzi and Burs, you guys have a chance
to even this up.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
All right, let's bring it back out west.

Okay, okay, back to the Western Conference. Within one inch
the height of chet Holmgrin officially listed by the.
Speaker 6 (39:39):

Speaker 7 (39:43):
How do you give him something that easy?
Speaker 4 (39:46):
That's that's sick color? Within one inch? I think it's seven,
officially listed by the NBA.
Speaker 6 (39:53):
All right, we're going to go seven to one.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
You are in the house. He is listed one. I
bet a piece, all right now, this is where it
comes down to it. Holland's in perfet for three points
east west or poltpourri.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
You want to go Hollands or shuld I just pick?
Speaker 4 (40:13):

Speaker 3 (40:15):
Let's go Eastings, mister Pollings, East.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
The east East? All right? The age of Tyre's Halliburton
within one year. You guys were good on the sg A.
How do you do with Tyree's Halliburton.
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Halliburton, he's got in the thirties.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
Okay, so he was traded a while ago.
Speaker 7 (40:39):
He played one year in Sack and then they traded him,
and then how long Sack was good the next year
and they were bad the last one year.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
I think he's the same age as SG. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
You guys going with twenty six. Yeah, well, guys, he's
actually six years old because he was born on a
leap day, but he is officially twenty five years old.
Twenty five. You're in the neighborhood. With twenty six, you
get a point. But he was born February twenty ninth
of two thousand. Tyrese Haliburton just turned twenty five. Three
(41:20):
points for Hollins in perfet All right, Moncey and Bursch,
If you guys tie this album to a tiebreaker at
the end of the show, because we have a great
NBA draft guest coming up next East West.
Speaker 6 (41:31):
Or poult Poirie, popt Pirie, let's do it.
Speaker 4 (41:35):
Within ten made threes by Caitlin Clark in forty games
last season in the WNBA regular SEASONO.
Speaker 6 (41:47):
Alright, so she was at least making one per game. Sure,
because she just broke that.
Speaker 8 (41:53):
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 4 (42:02):
The forty games last year she played? Yep?
Speaker 16 (42:05):
Okay, yeah, so in the forty games she played at
least made Let's give her to a game, to a
game to be safe. I hope that kind of averages out,
you know, and then maybe maybe add ten to it.
Speaker 6 (42:18):
How about we go, okay, so eighty five or ninety yeah?
How about way? How about eight? Are you just gonna
let me pick?
Speaker 3 (42:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (42:31):
Yeah, but around eighty five nineties I work for I think,
so it is a safe back.
Speaker 3 (42:35):
It feels like Ryan thinks that's crazy.
Speaker 4 (42:37):
But all right, let's go.
Speaker 6 (42:39):
You know what, let's go eighty seven okay.
Speaker 4 (42:42):
Eighty eighty seven, and so seventy seven or ninety seven, yeah,
anywhere in that range you're not in the neighborhoody.
Speaker 3 (42:54):
Okay, So you got three a game?
Speaker 4 (42:55):
Wow? Yes, that's where you would have Yes, that would
have been the math. Would you have rather had laps
in the indy five hundred? As the other Poltpourri question
within ten within ten two hundred, so you would have
also been outside the neighborhood. Ryan Hollins A. Christopherfett. You

Speaker 4 (01:11):
We are great? Ryan Berschinger, our executive producer today it's
going on burs And Chris Purphett, our technical producer, hanging
out Hi, Yes, group effort here on Fox Sports Radio.
And Ryan Hollins Tonight at last check, three hundred and
ninety seven dollars to get into tonight's Game two. Maybe
(01:32):
not hot as hot of a ticket as it was
for Game one, but still a significant price to pay
if you want to be in the garden tonight? Is
it worth the four hundred bucks if you're a Knicks
fan to pony up for that ducat this evening? It is?
Speaker 7 (01:50):
And you know, you don't get opportunities like this all
the time. I think, if you have a chance to go,
you've got to go. It's going to be the hottest
thing in town. And you know it, Dan, We've talked
about this. When the Knicks are good, whether you love
them or hate them, it's good for basketball.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Man.
Speaker 7 (02:04):
They have such a fan base. There's such a thing,
you know, and you would think that the better players
on the Western Conference side, you got an MVP, you
got potentially Anthony Edwards the next face of the league.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Nobody wants to watch that game.
Speaker 7 (02:19):
I mean, we watched it, but as a whole, it
was that Knicks game Knicks Indiana that brought it out.
And with all due respect, clearly Indiana wasn't, you know,
the team that everybody knew about.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
They want to see the Knicks now. There's obviously things
are more expensive in New York. There is more pizazz,
and let's be honest, the Knicks have the home court
right now, so they had games one and two. But
for example, Minnesota down two zero in their series with
the Thunder, lowest price ticket for tomorrow night's game in
Minneapolis is one hundred and twenty two dollars. It's the
(02:50):
lowest price that you can get on the secondary market,
if you're following the secondary market that ESPN has up
on their web page. I'm sure there are other tickets
that are priced somewhere in the ballpark, but the point being,
it's about one hundred and twenty bucks to get into
the Timberwolves and Thunder tomorrow night with their home team
being down two to oh as opposed to the four
(03:12):
hundred dollars for tonight's game two in New York. When
the Knicks are down one. Oh, but this also on
the heels of where it was like one thousand dollars
to get in game one, Like there's still a buzz though,
to get into the to the arena. And that's kind
of where we take today's Cavino and Rich show in
terms of tickets, what's worth it, what's not worth it?
(03:34):
And not even Ryan how much would you pay, but
just the simple fact of how do you pick? How
do you go about deciding, because not everybody like, yeah,
we're gonna see Ben Stiller at all the games because
he's Ben Stiller, and Tracy Morgan's gonna be there, and
just like the Laker fans, they've got their season tickets,
(03:55):
we're going to see them every game. But that's not
the average fan, and I feel that they're There is
a lot that goes into the average fan and deciding
if you're going to go to a game or not,
whether it's just a normal game or one with high
stakes like the playoffs. There's just a lot that goes
into deciding on if you're going to go to that game,
do you save the money for another contest? There's a
(04:16):
lot that goes into it. Yeah, no, it does.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
I mean, I think you gotta go, you gotta support,
and you got to understand just New Yorkers have a
love hate relationship with their team and that's just kind
of like what it's gonna be. And I guess it's
kind of like the unrest of being a New Yorker.
You know, you they love and hate the Knicks. I mean,
if you heard the passion that they speak about their
(04:41):
team with, it's you know, like they I mean, you
don't know if they again, I guess they equally love.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
And hate them.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
And there's just a unique thing Dan Bier's about being
a New Yorker that I, as a California guy, don't
necessarily understand. But I mean they're just full on bashing
and crazy words that it it gets the you know,
it's a true obsession, man, it really is.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
I get it. I totally understand you.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
I do.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
I hear you talk like that, though when it comes
to you know, your team or teams.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Well, my team got ousted in five games by the Pacers,
and what has been a a boring lull of season
after season ever since they were ousted by the Celtics
in the Eastern Conference semifinals, like there was hope that
when the Bucks got Damian Lillard it did provide energy.
And then you're like, wait a second, these ingredients aren't mixing,
(05:38):
and so now you're like, Okay, here's more of the same.
The Bucks can't make it out of the first round,
so it's tough to get up and excited for it.
But I will say this in two thousand and one,
in deciding to get tickets for the Bucks playoff run,
I went to game one of their Eastern Conference semi
final series against the Charlotte Hornets. And the reason that
(05:59):
I went to game one was because he was on
a weekend. I didn't live in Milwaukee. I lived about
two and a half hours away. Was in one of
my early radio jobs, and we scored tickets for game
one of their series against Charlotte. And when you're talking
about decisions, and you're talking about decisions as fans, everything
(06:22):
is not like all games aren't up for discussion. There
were fans that were priced out of Game one. So
for as much as you wanted to go to game one,
there are just some fans that aren't gonna pony up
for the tickets. In my case of looking at the schedule.
I didn't know if there was going to be a
game seven, had no idea if they were going to
(06:43):
go seven games against Charlotte. They ended up doing that.
They ended up winning and facing the sixers of the
Eastern Finals. But what I did is I cashed in
my chips and said, We're going to game one of
the Eastern Semis against Charlotte. And it was amazing. And
I still have the towel from the game twenty four
years later, So I do know something about that. Manzi
(07:03):
Blanos is a Clippers fan.
Speaker 6 (07:05):
I was ready, right, you know.
Speaker 8 (07:08):
That's why I love you so much, because I was
cheering for you for for you know, for when I
was little, and I just like I not, so you're.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Not that little. Don't do don't do that.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Don't do that game.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
I do that to damn buyers. How do you do?
But you don't do that to me.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
I'm just joking, but you know, you know that I
was ready to drop thousands of dollars because I thought
I was going to the finals.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Ryan, I like, I was, I'm ready to go to
the finals. I'm ready, I'm ready. And then you know,
and then did.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
You You went to a playoff game, didn't you?
Speaker 8 (07:36):
I did, of course I know, but I was saying
I would have dropped even more money for the finals.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
But I did go to a playoff game.
Speaker 8 (07:43):
Uh, and it was you know, not not four hundred bucks,
but I had some some pretty good seats.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
But yeah, no, I was ready. I was ready.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
You have to you have to go, Like if you're
a Knicks fan, they haven't been in the Eastern Conference
finals in twenty five years, Madison Square Garden, Like, you
have to try and go, there's no question.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
What but what game did you did you go to?
Speaker 8 (08:03):
I went to Game four, so game two at into
It Dome, which was on a Saturday, and that was
a driving force. Yes that I that it wasn't a weekday,
because yes, all of.
Speaker 6 (08:16):
That did matter.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
But I was like, I have to go, like I'm
gonna go, and you can't wait because like obviously you
don't expect your team to get swept or like a
gentleman sweep, so you kind of have to like pull
the trigger early, even though you wanting to be at
a game seven is also like awesome, but you can't
you know, plan for that.
Speaker 6 (08:33):
So yeah, no, you gotta pull the trigger. You gotta go,
you gotta go.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
This is but this is what Mansy was saying that
leads up to it. And the Game four that she
saw was you saw you saw the comeback, right yeah?
Speaker 9 (08:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (08:46):
No, no, yeah, I saw the Aaron Gordon yes, yes, and.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Then the put back and that shouldn't begin.
Speaker 6 (08:53):
It should not have counted no one.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Yeah that was reviewed, yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:58):
No, the probably sorry, So I just let me just
say this. The problem was that in that moment, I
don't believe any of those refs knew what the answer was.
So you should have said, no, it's not a good basket,
then go review it and then you can overturn it.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
But then you can't overturn when you call it good.
Like that's what should have happened.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Sure, let's litigate calls from a month and a half ago.
Let's absolutely do it.
Speaker 6 (09:22):
And you brought it up.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
But no, but the reason, the reason and I and
this is this is what's great. Is the reason I
brought it up is because whatever you paid for, you
will always have that story.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Absolutely so.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
And Ryan, I don't know if you have this experience
because you're a player, and maybe it is in a
different way, but there is something about having that story
good or bad. Now, you could be a Clippers fan,
and obviously Moncey wanted the Clippers to win Game four,
but for whatever price that she paid for the ticket,
(09:58):
And you don't have to don't You don't have to
say it. It's not important. But the Clippers won in
a blowout in Game three. Who's got the better story
for the rest of their lives for what they paid for?
Would you have loved to blowout win for the price
that you paid for the ticket? Granted your team didn't
(10:19):
win Game four, Dan, you know the answer to that.
I'm just saying I see a loss.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
Yeah, I know what Dan is saying.
Speaker 8 (10:27):
In fact, Ryan Berschinger and I just talked about this
with the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks, where the show.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
Heo Tawny won them the game in Arizona, and.
Speaker 8 (10:37):
It's like, at least they get to say show heyo
Tawny beat us, not like James Autman. You know, like
I get what you're saying, Like there's moments you're gonna
remember a blowout. I'll be like, oh, yeah, they won, yay,
and but I may not remember details. I will never
forget Aaron Gordon's dunk.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
Yeah, I realver.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
I know the Bucks won Game one twenty four years ago.
I've forgotten everything that happened in the game, but I
know with my towel that I was telling you about
in the pregame as everybody in the starting lineups are.
Me and my buddy are going nuts. You know, we're
waving our towel, We're doing we're doing everything. You know
(11:14):
that just losing our minds because it's Game one of
a playoff series. But that's the stuff that sticks with
you if you were a Dodger fan. We were just
in for Doug Gottlieb show. I brought up the World
Series looking back on that, if you were a Dodger fan,
would you want to go to the Game five clincher
or would you rather have been there Game one when
(11:35):
Freddy Freeman hit his Grand Slam. And the reason I
say this is because I think everybody would choose the
Grand Slam, just like they would choose Kirk Gibson's home
run against the A's in eighty eight. Is you never
know what you're going to get. And so there's this
when you're talking about like four hundred dollars, if it
fits in your schedule and you can afford the money.
(11:56):
You got to do it because every person is not
going to be able to go this The same people
that were in Game one of Pacers Nicks, Yeah, Ben
Stiller and Tracy Morgan are gonna be there again for sure.
Put the upper deck. I don't know, maybe changes over
fifty percent, seventy five percent, eighty percent people are going
to one game and and that's what I think is
just it's so interesting about these playoffs. If you're in
(12:17):
Manzi situation, you get a classic game that you had
no idea, just ended up fitting into your schedule. But
she was like, I have to go, and so ultimately
to your point, Ryan Hollins, is you gotta go. But
it's just not realistic for everybody to go to every
single game. Some people can, most people can't.
Speaker 7 (12:34):
If you choose, I never want to see a loss
a team that I'm emotionally invested into, a team that
you have history with, that you cheer for, you know
how long it's. I don't care if it's a blowout
in the first quarter. I don't care if half the
other team is injured. I want to see a win.
I do not want to.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
See a close loss.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
Nothing sits well if you are truly invested in your team.
And I stand by that, Like there's no excitement, like
oh get him next time, Like I'm frustrated, Like we
ain't happy.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
We ain't good, we ain't nothing. It's there is is.
It's incredibly unsettling. So I hear you, like, wow, it was.
I mean, in due time in twenty years, Monce's story
is better because she was at that game. And that's
the point of the segment. I'm just saying, I agree
with you. You want your team to win. I felt awful.
(13:30):
I'm a Seahawks fan. I've been a Seahawks fan since
I was seven years old. Oh, Milwaukee Seahawks, what's going on, dude.
Dave Craig, the former quarterback, was up from near my
hometown where I grew up in north central Wisconsin, and
I got to meet the Seahawks when they played a
game in Milwaukee when I was seven years old. So
I've been a Seahawks fan ever since. I was fortunate
(13:51):
enough to be at MetLife Stadium when they beat the
Broncos in Super Bowl forty eight. Was there on a
media pass. I didn't pay a dime for but in
an amazing, amazing experience. I felt awful for the Broncos
fans that I saw there that ponied up the thousands
of dollars that it took to go and watch their
(14:12):
team in the Super Bowl, and to do so in
a city like New York where it's expensive more than others.
It's a Super Bowl week, so you know, prices are
gonna be up, like there's a lot of cost. And
they end up losing forty three to eight, you know,
And I mean it's just a complete domination by the
Seahawks in winning that game. And I felt bad for
(14:32):
the Broncos fans in like paying up for that money.
But beforehand, you know what they're saying, Oh, I gotta go,
gotta go to the super Bowl, Gotta be there, Gotta
be there. Then in hindsight, so there's a lot of
different sides to this. Ryan Berschinger is our executive producer.
Speaker 10 (14:50):
So in twenty seventeen, I went to Game six of
the World Series. The Dodgers were down three to two
going into too Game six. I did not have tickets
for that game until that morning. In fact, when my
ticket was purchased, I was asleep. I didn't know that
it happened because a couple of my friends were texting
(15:11):
me that morning being like, hey, there's tickets. They're like
half the price because the Dodgers might lose the World
Series and people don't want these tickets. They were super
high up, but it was not too bad. And then
I'm looking at these texts as after I wake up,
and of course the last one is like, we bought them.
We figured you'd want to do it anyway, So and
I did, and I went and it was incredible. It's
(15:33):
the coolest experience I've ever had at a sporting event.
That Dodgers did win that game, But to Manzie's point,
I did have the perspective going into it of thinking,
you know what, worst case scenario, I'm going to witness
a team win a World Series and that is history
that you're going to witness in person, as much as
it would hurt to witness, and eventually I ended up
(15:55):
being even more painful than I thought it would be.
But as much as it would hurt to watch the
Dodgers lose that game in person, there is still the
perspective of knowing that for the rest of my life
I would have saw a team win a World Series
in person. But of course they ended up winning that
game and it was an absolute blast night. And I'm
so happy that we did drop the money and I'm
(16:16):
so happy that my friends just bought me that ticket
knowing I'd be super down for it.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Great perspective, and I think that's the point of the
whole thing is. And to Ryan, we actually are agreeing,
like the outcome is almost by chance, whatever it is,
it is, but if you can go, go, and I
just don't think that everybody has the same opportunity. Manzi
just says she's going to a playoff game, there's no
(16:44):
doubt about it. She's gonna be at into it, dome
what fits best for her schedule. Like that's because yeah,
if the games are on weeknights and she's working and
there's not that. It's the same thing with me. I
had to drive two and a half hours. I couldn't
have gone to any of the Bucks game at that
point if it was a weeknight because I had to
work the next morning. And I think people are in
that in that spot, and in Bursch's scenario, what I
(17:07):
guess probably happened, and Roun you could back me up
on this is you had the perspective to say, well,
I'm a baseball fan. I want to see history where
Dodger fans are saying, you know what, I'm not gonna
spend the money in game six, but if there is
Game seven, I'm going to go, which probably affected the
prices in game six, which allowed you to get those tickets.
So there's there's a lot to it. It's it's a
(17:28):
it's a juggling game. So I guess what I'm saying is,
Twin Cities, go to the Timberwolves game tomorrow if you can. Like,
that's where it is, because if you don't go tomorrow,
if they lose, then it's three oh, and you're not
gonna want to go to game four. Game four is
when your team is down three to zero, you models
to go to a funeral like that. That's all that
it is like, there's there is there is no there
(17:48):
is no excitement. You know your team is back against
the wall and it's probably not going to happen even
if they win. You know, it's okay, well we're still
down three to one. They have to win Game five
and then come back here for games. So I guess
the point is is go when you can? Is that far.
Speaker 7 (18:06):
If you hadn't seen it before? I agree, I get it,
But I would just say, if you have seen it before,
nobody wants to see your team lose. But it's like, hey,
I've never seen it, I've never been a part of it.
There's you know, a lot of festivities, a lot of
stuff going on.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
I get it, I understand it.
Speaker 7 (18:23):
I'm not arguing that I'm not a Debbie Downer, okay.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
And I'm not saying that Manzi should be happy her
team lost on a lot of buzzer beat dunk.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
You mean her sounds sound pretty excited about it.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
I mean no, what I'm saying is, twenty years from now,
when you're looking back at that play and you're talking
about history, that's the one that comes up at parties.
So that's the one that you're talking about twenty years later,
and you're giving the first hand experience of what happened
in the situate.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
Let me let me say this, Manzi, did you feel
there was still optimistic.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
Hope for this series in that moment? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Like, well, like after the game and after the game,
you're walking out, you're talking with your Yeah, you're with
I did.
Speaker 8 (19:06):
I mean, I thought they were winning the series up
until you know, Game seven, really, so I did have hope,
but I felt I felt really gross from that game.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
But I was like, all right, we gotta, we gotta
all right, it's not over. It's not over.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
It was also just how in game one they were up,
like what fifteen also lost it, So it was just
like frustrating. But yeah, like I that is a moment
I will I will never forget, like the air was
sucked out of into a dome, you know, And even though.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
It's not great, it's not great.
Speaker 8 (19:39):
I think from just being a basketball fan, it's a
pretty cool game to have been witnessing in person.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
I think it's I think it's awesome. I'm sorry that
the Clippers lost. Yeah, no, I mean just to that point.
And I think like with the Dodgers, and I think
that Burschinger's example was was great. There are people who
are like, oh, I want to save up for Game seven,
and they maybe they did, and then they just had
their team lose. And I don't think that in Game seven,
you're like, well, at least I get to see a
World Series win, Like you're going to that game with
(20:08):
your team tied, burst at least had the perspective knowing
that the odds weren't in a favor, so let's make
something good out of this. And then he ends up
seeing a win and seeing a World Series win in
a game six, which forces a game seven, which gives
everybody hope. The point being is, I think four hundred
dollars is cheap for tonight. So go if you can,
if you had the opportunity. And I don't know times
(20:30):
ticking tip off is in two and a half hours,
but it's just the point of get that opportunity, Minneapolis,
go in game three if there is a comeback series.
That's the other great thing when I talk about the series,
at least with the Hornets, the Bucks one and in seven.
So game one was the furthest one away, but it
still was like, hey, we saw a game in a
series that they won. And that's to Hollin's point is
you want your team, you want your team to win,
(20:52):
So if you have the opportunity, go do so. And
not everybody has that opportunity because there are people who
are driving for hours and have other plans and it's
guess what graduation season, So graduations are going on, and
other things are happening, and it's a Memorial Day weekend
and people are traveling, so a lot happening. But if
you can go to the game, I think that's our

every now and then.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Yeah, I love it. According to Munson, Okay, let's get
to it, Ryan Hollins. You can't just keep stinking with
no consequences.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
Oh well, that's not the word I said. But five
you're getting at PG. Okay, you guys, the Colorado Rockies.
Speaker 12 (24:22):
I get that, like teams go through slumps, right, but
they are on pace to be worse than the White
Sox were last year, which was the worst in the
modern era.
Speaker 8 (24:32):
They're also gonna be just the worst ever in baseball,
like in all the years of baseball. They're good, They're
on pace to have the worst record. Here is my problem.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
This will be.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
The fourth season in a row that they will be
in last place in the division. I went back and
looked at every division the last four years.
Speaker 6 (24:50):
There has not.
Speaker 8 (24:51):
Been the same team that has been in last place.
There's gotta be consequences. This will be the fourth year
in a row. I feel like after three years, if
you're team is in the last place in the division again,
you gotta be fine.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
The owner has to be fine.
Speaker 8 (25:04):
You get to year four, maybe you lose a chunk
of home games. You get to year five of being
in last place in your division again, you have to
sell the team. The Rockies aren't even trying. Like if
you looked at their lineup, they are not even trying.
I think I may be able to play right field.
Like I'm seriously like, I'm so.
Speaker 6 (25:24):
Over it because it sucks for the fans. And if
you look at Rockies games, there's actual fans in the stands.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
They they are there to support their team, and the
owners don't.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
The owner whoever it is, doesn't care. And I feel
like there's gotta be.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
Consequences when you keep being the worst team in your
division year after year, when no other division has that.
Speaker 6 (25:43):
Guys, I looked division, Yes, not.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
Cool something, but Oklahoma City, Iowa cuffs.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
I love that.
Speaker 8 (25:54):
I love that idea as well. I just feel like
money is what hurts owners. So it's like you gotta
give them a big fine and like yeah the three years,
than something the fourth year and then the fifth year
you're out, Like I'm over it.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
This sucks.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
Uh, they also suck. They do. I couldn't. I couldn't
say that. I needed some context to what I was saying,
but it is awful. Bud Black's on the contract at
the end of the year, an extension, like a one
year extension. But they're like, all right, this is so awful,
you're gone. I guess Bud Black is the only one
feeling the consequences of.
Speaker 6 (26:24):
An awful team, and he probably hasked to be fired.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yes, as a summer, I tell you, you.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Don't want to be there.
Speaker 9 (26:31):
According to Monsey, right, Hollands.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
You're up.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
According to months.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I mean, no, I get it. I understand the frustration.
Speaker 7 (26:42):
I don't think it's as easy as sending a team
down to.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
The Double A. But that's not realistic. Yeah, I just
play that up, But no, I like it.
Speaker 7 (26:51):
You can get draft prospects you are supposed to. You know,
they're they're farming players. I assume developed. It's called development.
Speaker 9 (27:00):
According to Monsey.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
To Mazi, more money, more problems.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, guys, more money, more problems. We've all
heard that.
Speaker 8 (27:09):
But you know who I think is just starting to
realize what that means. It'swan Soto. Sodo left the Yankees'
largest contract in professional sports.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
We all know that, you guys.
Speaker 8 (27:17):
I really don't think he knew what was gonna come
with that contract, The responsibility of like you are now
the guy You're still in New York, a.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
Tough market, and I don't think he.
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Was ready to be the guy. I'm not even talking
about the slump, y'all.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
He legit. I think he's sad. I think he regrets
his decision.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
Last Sunday, he did not hustle out of the box
on a ground.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Ball up the middle. He just casually trotted to first base.
Speaker 13 (27:40):
Could have been an enfield hit in an eighth inning
game of a tied game against two the Yankees against
the Red Sox guys, he didn't even swing Garrett Crochet
through six strikes. One was the ball he just struck
out looking just stood there.
Speaker 6 (27:55):
Juan Soto, how much money are you making to stand there?
How do you not swing at all? Y'all? I really do.
Speaker 8 (27:59):
Think he regrets his decision, and I think he's sad.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
It has nothing to do with the slump. It is
just everything else going around the slump.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
Watching him not swing at Garrett Crochet's strikes was ridiculous.
Speaker 9 (28:14):
He's According to Monsey, there's a politician in the NBA.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Yeah, y'all, we all believe Draymond Green should have been
a finalist for Defensive Player of the Year.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Since when, Since why when?
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Jimmy?
Speaker 8 (28:24):
When Jimmy Butler got to the Warriors, was a junior
was a dramond.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
He just kept talking on TNT on his podcast, He's like,
I'm good. Put me should you should have been.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Rich? He's Ryan, I'm dead. Monzs here too.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
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 Moncie Belanos at
the news desk will team up with our executive producer,
Ryan Berschinger. You guys can go back and forth. And
(29:17):
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 perfhetic question,
I would say, guys, within five points, how many points
(29:41):
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 point eighteen,
And if the range was five points, you would have
one thirteen to one twenty three. Does that make sense?
If you would have told me one o eight, you
(30:01):
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 6 (30:07):
I think so let's go.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
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
Pirie first of five, win by two. If you're both
there at the end, we'll go to a tiebreaker. Ryan Hollins,
(30:33):
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 Poulte Perrie first,
Let's go west? All right?
Speaker 3 (30:47):
West is good? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:49):
All right, guys, within within two. Within two, you gotta
get within two of this career playoff wins by the
Timberwolves Anthony Edwards, who, throughout 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
(31:11):
of playoff wins by the Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards. You guys
can work shop this out together.
Speaker 14 (31:19):
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.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Yeah, this is all time, so eight this year? What
else we have?
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Ryan, they did good? They lost to Luca, right, they
lost to Luca.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Yeah, so that would have been another and I think
that was the first time plus Carrie.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
So they would have had all these one eight they
won eight to get to No, they lost in the
second round. They did not go to the conference final.
They lost in the second round. So let's say they
win what two games made two to three.
Speaker 14 (32:02):
Games to two games, So we've got we've got twelve
on the board for the other two series that would
they would have won? Is that was that just the
only year we've got to is just those two years?
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Yeah, I don't think they went before.
Speaker 7 (32:11):
That's why there was a big oare okay?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
So yeah, if we say like twelve or like, we
got to be within.
Speaker 4 (32:18):
Two yep, so it could be a high or low.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
So yeah, like we twelve what no?
Speaker 4 (32:24):
Is your answer?
Speaker 3 (32:25):
No?
Speaker 8 (32:25):
No?
Speaker 14 (32:25):
Hold on, because we added have to add the two, right, So.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Fourteen I think we'd have to say fourteen?
Speaker 4 (32:32):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Maths hard?
Speaker 10 (32:35):
I'll give you this one that is twelve plus two.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Yeah, yes, yes, I I'm doing radio for a reason.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
All right, So you want to go Do you want
to go fourteen?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Ryan?
Speaker 4 (32:48):
Yeah, we'll go fourteen. We'll go fourteen, but two fourteen?
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 in Edwards's career. They
(33:11):
won two games against the Grizzlies in the first round
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 6 (33:24):
But he thought it was more.
Speaker 8 (33:26):
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 4 (33:35):
Right, Will you guys get to pick the category East
West or Poultpourrie?
Speaker 3 (33:39):
How about Potpourrie?
Speaker 8 (33:40):
Ohky, oh gosh, all right?
Speaker 4 (33:46):
Within one, within one, yes, within one? Eastern Conference teams
in the Central time zone.
Speaker 6 (33:52):
Ooh, Ryan, that's all you've had.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
Okay, I know Manzi's love of geography.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Chicago. Uh question, Hold.
Speaker 6 (34:05):
On a second. You just confused me with that answer.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
East the number of Eastern Conference teams okay, that reside
in the Central times.
Speaker 6 (34:14):
Okay, yeah, all you ran? I?
Speaker 3 (34:18):

Speaker 3 (34:51):
I'm not going to look at Chris's faces. Okay.
Speaker 10 (34:54):
I think Detroit is central time, okay. And then we're
going down the map a little bit. Oh man, I
don't know where the the where the border is.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
We're gonna need a final answer. We're also, by the way,
only gonna go to three points five is the map?
Speaker 10 (35:18):
Three is where we go in the neighborhood is let's
go within one's four disgusting.

Yes, nine, you're in the house.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
Yes, you're not only in the neighborhood, you're in the house.
It is not right.
Speaker 14 (37:55):
I'm going to be brutally honest, I thought there was
an ex at the end.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
I did as well. It's all I thought, Oh well,
maybe this will throw them off. But we now have
a ballgame. East Western polt Porie, Hollinson, Purfet Europe.

Sga was a rookie when I did the Clippers, right,
and Matzi, what year did I cover the Clippers?
Speaker 4 (38:27):
That was the thirty one point comeback?
Speaker 7 (38:30):
Right, there's a thirty 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 14 (38:41):
If by my recollection, that would put him at like
twenty five or twenty six.
Speaker 7 (38:46):
And then what he was traded the next year. He
played one year at Kentucky. Then he was traded the
next year.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
Right to.
Speaker 7 (38:54):
Okase. Paul George recently was who he was traded for.
This is Paul yours first year in Philadelphia. He played
with Chris Paul there, I think twenty seven.

I was okay, twenty six seven, twenty seven, okay, twenty
seven twenty seven.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
You guys are in the neighborhood. He's twenty six right now,
on his way to being twenty seven. You got the point, congratulations,
two points right.
Speaker 6 (39:22):
Now, sick and I knew that answer. I knew that
answer right away.
Speaker 4 (39:27):
All right, Monzi and Burs, you guys have a chance
to even this up.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
All right, let's bring it back out west.

Okay, okay, back to the Western Conference. Within one inch
the height of chet Holmgrin officially listed by the.

Speaker 7 (39:43):
How do you give him something that easy?
Speaker 4 (39:46):
That's that's sick color? Within one inch? I think it's seven,
officially listed by the NBA.
Speaker 6 (39:53):
All right, we're going to go seven to one.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
You are in the house. He is listed one. I
bet a piece, all right now, this is where it
comes down to it. Holland's in perfet for three points
east west or poltpourri.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
You want to go Hollands or shuld I just pick?
Speaker 4 (40:13):

Speaker 3 (40:15):
Let's go Eastings, mister Pollings, East.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
The east East? All right? The age of Tyre's Halliburton
within one year. You guys were good on the sg A.
How do you do with Tyree's Halliburton.
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Halliburton, he's got in the thirties.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
Okay, so he was traded a while ago.
Speaker 7 (40:39):
He played one year in Sack and then they traded him,
and then how long Sack was good the next year
and they were bad the last one year.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
I think he's the same age as SG. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
You guys going with twenty six. Yeah, well, guys, he's
actually six years old because he was born on a
leap day, but he is officially twenty five years old.
Twenty five. You're in the neighborhood. With twenty six, you
get a point. But he was born February twenty ninth
of two thousand. Tyrese Haliburton just turned twenty five. Three
(41:20):
points for Hollins in perfet All right, Moncey and Bursch,
If you guys tie this album to a tiebreaker at
the end of the show, because we have a great
NBA draft guest coming up next East West.
Speaker 6 (41:31):
Or poult Poirie, popt Pirie, let's do it.
Speaker 4 (41:35):
Within ten made threes by Caitlin Clark in forty games
last season in the WNBA regular SEASONO.
Speaker 6 (41:47):
Alright, so she was at least making one per game. Sure,
because she just broke that.
Speaker 8 (41:53):
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 4 (42:02):
The forty games last year she played? Yep?
Speaker 16 (42:05):
Okay, yeah, so in the forty games she played at
least made Let's give her to a game, to a
game to be safe. I hope that kind of averages out,
you know, and then maybe maybe add ten to it.
Speaker 6 (42:18):
How about we go, okay, so eighty five or ninety yeah?
How about way? How about eight? Are you just gonna
let me pick?
Speaker 3 (42:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (42:31):
Yeah, but around eighty five nineties I work for I think,
so it is a safe back.
Speaker 3 (42:35):
It feels like Ryan thinks that's crazy.
Speaker 4 (42:37):
But all right, let's go.
Speaker 6 (42:39):
You know what, let's go eighty seven okay.
Speaker 4 (42:42):
Eighty eighty seven, and so seventy seven or ninety seven, yeah,
anywhere in that range you're not in the neighborhoody.
Speaker 3 (42:54):
Okay, So you got three a game?
Speaker 4 (42:55):
Wow? Yes, that's where you would have Yes, that would
have been the math. Would you have rather had laps
in the indy five hundred? As the other Poltpourri question
within ten within ten two hundred, so you would have
also been outside the neighborhood. Ryan Hollins A. Christopherfett. You
win in the neighborhood the debut edition. I never I

a graphic.
