Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, this is the Doug Gottlieb Show. Here's in
the bonus with Doug Gottlieb.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
What up Doug Gottlieb Show in the Bonus Fox Sports Radio,
iHeartRadio app. Welcome in. Well you're having a great day.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Do oh.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Oh h oh uh a uh It's a Doug Gottlieb
show on Fox Sports Radio. Hey. I was watching hockey
last night with my son Hayes, and we may had
to bring him on and discuss this and he was like,
we were trying to watch hockey and he's like, I
can't see the puck And I said, you know, they
(00:46):
used to have a like a tracer and like a
tail on it and the color would change based upon
how fast the puck was hit. He's like, that's awesome.
Why don't they have that now? I was like, well,
people complained, he said, And he said, well, people are stupid,
That's what he said. And you know what, He's right,
(01:07):
And I think back and obviously that was back when
Fox had the NHL they put the little tracer on
the puck. But man, was that genius Somewhere there's a
guy out there who is the guy who invented that?
Who was tired and feathered and told he was a
lesser human being than the rest of us, and we
all owe him a gigantic apology. Jase du do you
(01:30):
remember that? Do you remember when there was a tracer
on the puck?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
I do? And then I have a bunch of hockey friends.
I have a lot of hockey friends that I make
fun of Kings fans and they hated it. So it
was that classic decision that the NHL had to make,
do we piss off our current fans to bring other
people into the tent? I mean, Baseball's face with that today,
(01:57):
and they chose their current fans. And I will say that, yes,
HD helped the puck thing. Standard Deaf was awful for
the puck. I remember when HD started to become in vogue,
people would be like, you gotta watch hockey on HD,
and so I don't know if there was a need
for it after that, but I do remember that time
(02:18):
and place where the NHL had to choose between their
pissed off fan base and bringing other people into the tent.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I'm trying to think there's other decisions like that, you know,
where people just don't like, you know, they just don't.
The traditionalists don't like the change, and I'd say it
with baseball, the pitch clock, get rid of the shift,
the DH, right, the universal DH. Traditional people don't like that.
(02:50):
I love the double switch. But you know what, I
I'm okay with doing away with the double switch if
I see better baseball and it's been better baseball. Were
you a double switch guy?
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Oh, I'm a traditionalist. I want I wanted both leagues
to have pictures hitting. I thought the DH was an
abomination when they instituted it in the early seventies, and
the the Bob Costas of the world are on my
side on this one. Pitchers should hit, period.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Oh, I think pictures should hit. But again, like if
the if, if the desires to get better baseball, to
get more offense in baseball, to make baseball get baseball
be a better watch, would you do it? And I
think your answer is yes, right, despite the fact you're
a traditionalist.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Well, they did it. No, I don't know if I
agree with it. No, no, No, I'm not a DH guy,
so I'm not. I'm not coming off of that one.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Okay, So do you think the DH thing is akin
to the tracer thing?
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Sure, that's just one of the decisions over the years
that baseball's made. Yeah, I think they kind of tweak
their their traditional fans.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
What would get people to watch hockey more?
Speaker 4 (04:01):
I think that I think that battle has been fought
and lost.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I know it has been again. But if I was
to if I was to say, if I was going
to a boardroom and go, hey, we're gonna do the
hockey discussion again, you know, I think the only things
I do think fighting in the regular season would bring
more people. And I know they fight, but the problem is,
you know, they're just everyone's so petrified of a dude
(04:28):
getting killed on the ice, and so the fighting, though
it still occurs, far more limited than it used to be.
I actually like where hockey is I do. I mean, like,
I'm kind of with Dan Byer on this and that
we need a Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup
because hockey really matters to them and it doesn't really
(04:49):
matter to us, Like no idea who won the Stanley
Cup last year and don't actually care, whereas if the
Oilers win, everybody will care.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Sorry, go ahead, Dan and I have been arguing about this.
Maybe we should carry this onto the air today because
I think the opposite. I don't know, why why do
you care about Canada get in a Stanley Cup.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I don't care about it. I just know that they care,
So why doesn't That's that's because it's at your core audience, right, there's.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Your core audience.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
No, it's no, it's it's hockey's core audience. My core
udis doesn't care about hockey at all, exactly. I just
I use it as a as a jumping off point
for other discussions. Right that hockey over expanded to areas
that weren't hockey friendly and then retrieved. Yeah, and they're
(05:42):
back in probably a better but similar position to where
they were twenty five years ago. And that's okay, Like
there's a lot of money to be made in this lane.
They just can't go to the fast lane, you know.
They're they're like second lane drivers. If you have five
lanes on a road, you're going down the four five,
what lane are you in?
Speaker 4 (06:03):
The fast lane?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Right? Far over to the left? Correct?
Speaker 4 (06:11):
The fast lane in the United States is the right line,
the far right.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
He's being sarcastic. That's that's Jason saying the opposite of
what's true. Okay, So why do you get in the
fast lane.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
To go as fast as I can to a given destination?
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Right, you want to get there a little bit quicker
chiel those steps. It's also there's an ego thing to it,
like nobody wants to drive in the second to the
right lane. The right lane, you're getting off the middle lane,
you're kind of no man's land. The fourth lane, you're
kind of like you want to be in the fast lane,
but you know you're not the fastest driver out there.
That's second from the right. That's the lane for hockey.
(06:50):
A lot of money, good solid sport. Never going to
be Tier one. It's okay, Lots of people in those
areas love hockey. They just don't talk about it on
sport radio. We're not going to talk about it on
a regular TV. We'll watch it when it's on, but
it's not like a point of viewing.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
That's what we've been saying the last couple of years
as the NWNBA has grown supposedly and their followers and
their media types of compelling us that the reason why
we never watched this because we're sexist or racist or homophobic.
Like the NHL knows it's lane. It stays in its lane.
(07:27):
It doesn't accuse you of being anti Canadian, doesn't accuse
you of being stupid or ignorant. I love that. I
love that, and Dan and I rarely disagree on things,
but we've disagreed about two things in the last six
to eight weeks that have to do with each other.
Rory McElroy winning the Masters was something that I think
(07:50):
most golf fans were rooting for, for him to complete
his career grand Slam. That was the storyline, and coming
off of that, that was a great feel right. But
I'm anti that the prolonged agony makes better content for
me and my job. Prolonged agony Canadians not winning one
since ninety three is a more interesting story. It's their sport.
(08:13):
They care a lot. I like prolonged agony as it
pertains to my perch in this world, which is sports
talk content.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Guy, I do too.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
I think, yes, I completely agree with your assessment there.
Golf guy is the only guy they like man Finally, Rory,
whereas the rest of us we love the suffering suffer
as much as possible, you know, And though that gift
of him crying and being just so elated and relieved,
you know, walking over to sign his scorecard is one
(08:48):
that you can use for anything. As a meme. I
would prefer it being that he lost yet another big
event that would have been better, but she nearly did.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
By the way, So as it relates to hockey, have
I converted you back to rooting against the Canadian team?
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
No, because I don't think it's I don't think a
country's prolonged agony. I don't. I see it as a
country's prolonged agony, not an individual or single team's prolonged agony.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 (09:21):
H makes makes sense to me.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Lets.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Let's get through the Fox says and now what does
the Fox say every day at this time with the
Doug Gottliebes Show. In the Bonus podcast, we play for
you a previous portion of a Fox Sports Radio or
Fox Sports One show. Here's Colin Cowhard talking about the
report that there's mutual interest between Jake Kidd and the Knicks.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
There is no way I'm leaving ballast with Cooper Flag
arriving from Duke. There is no oh way I'm leaving
cashe Nicks cash Cow, Cooper Flag. Dallas forget the state
tax thing, which is obviously a huge benefit. But if
you look at Dallas's young talent, Cooper Flag's the best
(10:16):
domestic player in a decade plus. He's gonna be twenty
three points next year. He's fantastic. He's Jason Tatum but aggressive.
If you took Jason Tatum's game and you said it's
eight percent better and it's more aggressive, you'd have the
face of the league. Cooper Flag's got the aura, He's
got Duke, He's got the game. The only thing he
doesn't have is NBA experience. So again, you can have
(10:39):
the cachet, I'll take the cash cow. Cooper Flag can
get out on the break. He can just say twelve
feet from the hall, give me the ball, I'm up
the floor leading the break. What a great And Jason
Kidd knows that kid's one of the great point guard
talents of all time. And Cooper Flagg will not a
point guard. It's a you know, six 't eight wing,
but he's an unbelievable transition player. So I would not
(11:02):
take that. I would not leave.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Deut Yeah, I don't know enough about what the new
Mavericks regime is like. And obviously Jim Dolan has never
been somebody that people have said, hey, he should rush
to work for him. But there is something to his
level of interest. It has to tell you that whatever
happened this year when they traded away Luka Doncik, it
(11:27):
wasn't good and you saw him kind of slowly start
to separate himself from from Nico, from the idea of
trading him, and it became just wildly unpopular. I don't
agree in any in any form with Collins's assessment of
who Cooper Flag is. He's not Jason Tatum. He's actually
(11:49):
more like Kevin Garnett, a really versatile foe man who
can handle pass shoot. He is only six seven in
bare feet. But yeah, I don't think anybody said he's
Jason Tatum. He's Jason Tatum's a wing he's not. But
he's a tremendous player. I would guess though that. You know, look,
(12:13):
getting out of the West is always seen as being easier.
The Knicks are a thing he wouldn't be as well
regarded if if Brunson wasn't into him, and I think
you got a really solid base of guys. And I
think the last part is there's a good sense that
(12:35):
if you hire Jason Kidd, it means you're trading for
Yannis because he previously coached Yannis. They have a relationship,
Jannis wants to get to New York. That all makes sense.
So if we're looking at it now, you're like, yeah,
I don't know if I see it. They're like, Okay,
what if we threw in Yannis for calling Anthony Towns
and some of the other pieces, like, well, okay, that's
a different story. So the world is not stagnant, and
(12:59):
I think comparing it to last year would be silly.
There's gotta be a greater reason why j Kidd wants
out of Dallas. Here's Rob Parker and Kevin Washington. That's
the odd couple they talked about Shake Gildas Alexander.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
Superstar is not just because you were the MVP or
just because you won something, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (13:18):
Like that is not what determines whether or not.
Speaker 8 (13:21):
To me you're a superstar. It's bigger than that, and
it's not just on the field. It's not just or
on the court, you know what I mean, like just
putting up numbers, and it's not just winning, because there
are guys to me who are not one who are
clearly superstars.
Speaker 6 (13:40):
And the biggest one to me, and I say, is
Aaron Judge.
Speaker 8 (13:45):
Is there any doubt in your mind, Kelvin that he's
a superstar? No, And he hasn't won a World Series
and he's had his failures in the postseason and he
dropped the easiest fly ball to center field and probably
the history of mankind.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
Damar Jackson has not won yet.
Speaker 8 (14:02):
People are disappointed at him in the postseason, but guess what,
he's a superstar. So when you talk about superstars, that's
why I think people get caught up with the prisoner
of them ament. Oh, he wonted the MVP, it's about
to win, has a chance to win a championship and whatnot,
And that doesn't mean he's a great player. And this
good's gonna you know, if they do win it, which
(14:24):
I still don't think they will, but.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
If he wins it, it'll it'll.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
Be a hell of a year all the way around
for all the stuff that he's done. First Team All NBA.
I mean, there's nothing else you could ask for him
to do. Still, I don't think that elevates him to
that plateau.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Yeah, I don't think SHA's a superstar just yet. He
has all the attributes of it, but he's if you
see Shake Gildess Alexander, it's not a household name, and
you don't even the commercial he's in with couple of
his teammates, with Jaylen Williams and with Chet Holmgren, Like
(15:05):
you kind of know who they are. If you're a
basketball person, you know who they are. But superstar means
mainstream people know who they are. You just don't. You
just don't. And what happens is people think it's a
knock on your game for example, or how you're playing
or whatever like has nothing to do with that. It
just has to do with what resonates with non hardcore
(15:26):
basketball people, non hardcore basketball people. This is la Our
Arrington talking about the Browns and Shador.
Speaker 9 (15:35):
If I am the head coach the GM and the
owner of this team, I'm naming Shador Sanders my starter
to day to day. You know why Joe Flacco love
you to death? You gave us a good, good, good
little run. You're a raven, Kick Rocks, can you Pickett?
(15:57):
You ain't showing us that you that good at all?
You hear for an insurance policy, Kick Rocks, Dylan Gabriel.
We took you with the third pick, third round pick.
We feel really good about what you could possibly be.
But do we ever see you as a starter. I
don't know. It's a strong possibility that you're not a
(16:18):
starter for our franchise.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
It's a very strong possibility.
Speaker 9 (16:22):
But my goodness, you probably can be a really really
good backup for us at some point in time. If
I'm the Cleveland Browns. If you're looking at the coverage
of Shador Sanders and the way all of this is
is kind of being being properly placed on the table,
you about to get served.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
If you don't see this coming.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Yeah, look, I think the deal with Shador, we have
no idea what's going on with him and his level
of competency. You have two other guys, Hill Flack obviously
super sperienced. Can he Pickett experienced? And we'll see how
he fits in. The big thing is like first you
have to just make the team. That's the thing. Just
(17:07):
make the team and see how that goes and for
that week, no matter how well he's played. Now, it
doesn't matter until they start getting live and they start
really competing, getting aftured, he starts getting hit and we
see some complexities of the game come in. That's what
the Fox said.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
I'll find out who are what is annoying? Jason Stewart.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And now it's your annoying.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Hey, Doug. I'm gonna play a piece of sound now,
but before I do that, I need to say something annoying.
But it's very side baseball. This is very much taking
the listener behind the curtain. Annoying is being sent sound,
rushing sound onto the air, not screening the sound, and
(18:13):
jeopardizing the job of the board op, which is what
happened yesterday when we tried to play this sound from
Lebron again to the listener. I didn't screen the sound
before I put it on the air. That's on me.
We rushed it, put it on the air, and Ryan
Smith's job was compromised for a few seconds.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
I've never got involved with my kids coaches.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
From Brinnie growing up to where he is now and Bryce,
you know, on his way to Tucson, Arizona.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
I've never got involved. I've never went.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
To a practice and sat through practice the whole time
and see how my sound was being utilized. I've never
got on the phone with the coaches. Listen, he's there,
coach my son, coach from hiwerever you want to and
I think you need to hold him accountable. I hope
you hold him more accountable than any other kid here,
you know, and say what the fuck you need to say,
no matter you know, no matter how it's being said,
(19:08):
because it's not sometimes it's not. If you could just
take the message and not about how he's saying, just
take the message out of it, you know.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
I think that builds character as well, you.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Know, And I think it's part of the reason why
they are where they are at this their stages in
their lives.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
You know, baby and your kid and always you.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Know, thinking that your kid is this, and think of
your kid is that, and not allowing coaches to coach them,
or not allowing people to be hard on them. And
as soon as a coach or someone says something to them,
you pull them and go somewhere else, or you know,
or as soon as someone says something bad about your kid.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
You're the first person to go talking to his face.
It's like you fucking go coaching it.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Yeah, I didn't when I when I sent you that sound,
I didn't even hear. I didn't hear the f BOM.
I just heard the first part to it. So that's
on me as well. But I I thought the Aaron
An thing you're talking about, he's annoying because he's a hypocrite, right, I.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Just don't believe a word he says. Ever, that's the problem.
He's cried rule so many times.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Right and again he's directly contradicted himself with how he's
handled Bronnie and how he's handled Bryce like he he
created Bronni's AAU team, which again he has the power
to do. I mean, look, I did the same thing
for my son, So I'm not sitting here. But but
the other thing I'm doing is I'm not criticizing people
(20:32):
for it. You know, He's like, yeah, I didn't. I
didn't change programs. It was your program. How are you
going to change your son into your program? I didn't
change coaches. Yes, you did. You coached the team in
some big events, and so did Rondo. Like what are
you even talking about? Honestly, Jason, Like, what the fuck
(20:52):
is he even talking about?
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know, just sitting.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
There going like, yeah, I'm he's like making himself out
to be this incredible aau parent, Like, hey, weren't you
the dude that hopped into lay uplines is dunking right
like and again I don't really care, but let's not
You're you're sitting there acting like you're taking the high
road and that you're just I've seen really good parents.
(21:19):
There's a guy, Russ Turner is the head coach at Ucrvine, Okay,
and U Syrvine has been really good. I think he's
a winning His Coachervin's ever had and Russ's son. I
think he's going to Bayola. He's going to one of
(21:40):
the Division three schools in southern California. And Russ was
a great I think it was Division three, could have
been Division two. He was a Division three player in
Virginia growing up. Okay, and he was a guy who
was lightly recruited late Bloomer and then became like a
two thousand points scorer in college. His son, I don't
(22:03):
think his son will will develop into that, but son's
a great kid. He would come to a practice and
I coached him for a couple of years and he
would open up his newspaper, read his newspaper, occasionally sit
there across his legs, and then when they were done,
there dead nothing like. He was literally the perfect AU parent.
Just as long as you're coaching right, long as you're
(22:24):
not mfing him up and down, you can get on
to him. I'm never gonna say a word. I was
so blown away by Russ Turner and what we was
like Lebron again not the worst au parent in the world,
didn't get in a fight with the ref, but uh,
you know, getting in the dunk lines, causing a scene,
(22:45):
creating your own AAU team, coaching the team yourself. Stop it, dude,
who else annoying you this?
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (22:54):
This next one first comes with an exercise. I just
need you to be concise what quickly comes to mind
on this What in your mind is a sports rivalry?
How do you define it?
Speaker 2 (23:08):
It feels like a team that you play against every year,
and the game means more than most other teams you
play any year. So I think the most loosely defined
rivalry you can think of.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
Perfect. So the Dodgers played the Padres last night. Great game,
watched every pitch, and I really enjoy it. I like
Dodgers and Padres because in my mind, it's kind of
a It's a team that does things the right way
against a team that does things the wrong way. If
you want to simplify that matchup the last couple of years. Uh,
(23:48):
the manager of the Podres is Mike Shilt. Now I
mistakenly called a Mike shit when when I was quizzed
on who the manager was recently on the air, Mike
Shilt said this about the Dodgers Padres.
Speaker 10 (24:04):
You know relatives. I even red. I get it completely.
At the stadium is gonna be rocking. It's gonna be fantastic.
I appreciate the heightened awareness to what likely is the
best rivalry in baseball as far as what to look for,
You're gonna look to see good, hard nosed baseball and
us getting after it and as hard as we can
at every turn.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Here's the crazy thing about it being the best rivalry
in baseball. It's not a rivalry. According to the Dodgers
Red Sox Yankees are probably the best Red Sox. I mean,
Dodgers Giants are the rivalry. They go back to the
days and back in the borough. Dodger fans don't consider
(24:41):
it a rivalry. Padres fans do. And that's why I
asked you how you define rivalry? If if only one
side considers it a rivalry, then it's not a rivalry.
I think the Padres won the regular season series last year,
and they beat the Dodgers in the postseason two postseasons
to go. But other than that, what if the Padres
(25:03):
ever done to even come close to what the Dodgers
have accomplished. And if you don't believe me, how about
our third base went Max Munsey, which I helped turned
them around at the plate.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
You're you're amazing, Yeah, Maxims, I'll tell you yeah. I
think the Dodgers are the Padres nemesis. I think the
Giants are the Dodgers rival. Here's Max.
Speaker 11 (25:29):
The Padres bring everything that is in a rivalry, but
you only have one rival. I don't like when people
say you have rivals. I just think if you have
a rival, it's your you know, it's your counterpart. And
that's always going to be the Giants for the Dodgers
at least, and it's always going to be the Red
Sots for the for the Yankees. People always made the
argument that the Astros and Yankees had a good rivalry going,
and it's like, that's true, but you only have one rival.
(25:51):
And so for me, like I said, the Padres bring
everything that a rivalry brings. For me, your rival is
just one team. You don't have multiple teams as your rival.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Yeah, so take that, Padre fans, including Daniel Jeremiah, you
are not our rival, no matter how much you tried
to be the little the pesky, little little brother, my agitator.
Two things that I can't stand, Doug. Two things people
(26:20):
that judge other people for how they express affection and
the Dutch and mouth kissers. This is a mont Saint
Brown talking about mouth kissing.
Speaker 12 (26:37):
I kiss my dad and lives growing up until I
would say, what like until I got to high school.
M hmm. But then in high school I think a
few times I kiss him on the lips, like when
I what was it when I graduated? I think when
I committed So a lot of people think it's weird.
I kiss my mom when the lips too. I kissed
(26:57):
my brother's on the lips when I was growing up.
My day I made us do it so we get
in fights, and then after the fight was over, he
would make us kiss each other on the lift.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
I didn't have to fight sometimes, just kiss. That was
gonna be my plan.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
If you try to beat my ass, I was going.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
To kiss you, but not.
Speaker 12 (27:19):
My dad made us do it, So I think, I mean,
it's not a thing I think in America really, but yeah,
I think it's a I mean Germany, it's kind of normal.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
So it was normal for me growing up.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
So this was a topic. I remember when the Tom
Brady documentary came out because he did a full mouth
kiss on his uh like preteen son, and it became
a discussion like when when do you when do you
stop w lip kissing your your sons? I have a son,
you have a son, Like I remember at an early age,
(27:54):
it went from my lips and then at some point
it transferred to cheeks, and then it goes to forehead.
Now he won't even wet my lips even close to him,
But like, how and when do you get to the
point where you're an adult giving mouth kisses to your dad.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
I don't know, I don't know. I don't I think
I do forehead and occasionally, you know, forehead kiss with
my kids once they get out of the mouth kissing
was like till five or whatever. So yeah, I think
four head. I don't know, I don't know. I don't
(28:35):
know how that's okay.
Speaker 5 (28:38):
With it.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
Yeah, so adult mouth kissers team, the word rivalry being
used way too loosely, and then Lebron James gibberish about
how he lets coaches coach our.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Kids mouth kissing. Mouth kissing uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
And annoy Why are we doing this?
Speaker 7 (29:04):
I do.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Because we can.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Now I have to admit to you, I've paid little
attention to the WNBA since Caitlin Kark has been injured.
Just coming back this week Kelsey Plumb, remember she was
on the Aces, they were pretty good team. She was
traded to the Sparks. But Kelsey Plum did something last
night that you don't even see in like real sports,
like the top three sports, you have a player basically
(29:33):
motherfuckering the officials in a postgame press conference. I don't
know if that sounds great, but this is this is
just very rare, and I kind of have to give
her a credit for doing it.
Speaker 13 (29:46):
So to shoot six three dogs is fucking absurd. And
I got scratched on my face, I got scratched on
my body, and these guards on the other team get
these tiki tag fowls, and I'm sick of it. I
get voulied that every possession Raki is fouling that in
the post all the time and they don't call it,
and I don't know what else to do, Like it's
really frustrating though. I mean, there's multiple shots at the
(30:07):
end of the game, either go into the third into
the fourth where they're just coming in and fucking swinging and
they just don't call anything.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
And I don't understand how that's.
Speaker 13 (30:18):
Six free tos. I'm playing forty minutes touching the paint
almost every play. Is absurd. It is absurd, And so
I'm saying, like I'll get fine for that, and that's fine,
but I mean, and I needed to make more shots
like late game, but I mean, they're founding.
Speaker 5 (30:32):
This shit out of me every single play.
Speaker 13 (30:35):
So I'm very frustrated with that and I'm sick of it.
I'm sick of it. I don't know what I need
to do. I talk to the rest of NICE, I
pray before the game, like fuck, I'm over it.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
That's a great piece of sound. That was so good.
I've just become a fan. I've just become a fan.
I'm so in Why do we play it for you?
Because we can't. That's it for the ind The Batus Podcast.
I got the radio show every day three to six Eastern,
twelve two Pacific, Foxport Radio. iHeartRadio App'm Doug Ali.
