There was a whole other thing going on there. All right,
are we gonna do it? But they're gonna do a
deep dive on that now?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Uh, how to elect the new Pope? How did John
Lithgow not get elected by Sorry spoiler, sorry he made
that face.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Sorry, but he's Dumbledore. He didn't get to be the pope,
but now he's Dumbledore, so it's okay.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Who knew?
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Yeah, that's actually the sound you make and what you
yell out when you take a dive into the bullpit
at McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
My mush Poppy, is that? What was it? What was it?
My mom, popp it, mam mush poppy. Why are you
making fun of the pope? Man? I don't know, he's

It's ty shirt, so who knows? It could be something
from one of the video games.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
It could be something. Oh no, no, that's from a
Pikachu video game that i've uh you know, something that's
from uh studio Ghibli that I have a gotta think, like,
id on? First off, are you accusing me of lying? No,
I'm saying you were stretching the truth for entertainment, So
like I'm being flamboyant with what's going on? No, you're
being more glib. I am still you try to use
bigger words than me. Comes now, come on, games, Okay,
(02:02):
I actually was thinking about that today, was driving into
work going. We actually did a bit last night where
Ty Shirt thought he was talking like Blake Snell was.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Talk about how you put your life on the line
every time you went on the mountain.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It's not my life life every time I went to
play twitch, but my life was on the line because
you to talk about it. That's that. That's that's a
stallone that was popping. That was like a boring car ride,
if that's what you were thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
It just popped into my head. I don't know why,
but it just I don't know why, but just popped
into my head. Oh yeah, he's doing that.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Blake's now you think about me? Huh No that. I
was listening to the radio and then and they were
mentioning the Dodgers and they're pitching and coming in and
they and they said Blake Snell's name, and I thought
of that. I said Blake's Now they said Milake Snell's name,
and I thought about it. Away from me.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
And now and now in the bad underneath them, IM
thinking of the Keith Urban song. You'll think of me,
take your records take free to I mean, I take
your memories.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Even full time. Here for why you work at least
two nights a week. So I mean, you know, I
see you a lot, I see you all. I see
you a lot. Yeah, okay, kind of more than our
families at this point. Why don't you tell that's been
that's been the case for a while. You take off
next week? Want to take off? You have the power
for that. Take two? They're small. Why don't you when
you take off next week? All right, all right, we're good.
Really gonna do it? Yeah, I'll do it. We got
(03:24):
to come back the following week, though, was popping. I'm
going to tell you he's off the phone. He's actually
already a what the hell already off? What if I
told you I split Rob G's time off for his kid,
and I took half of it. You took half a
robb GI's kid. No, his time off for his kid.
Oh okay, so that was like biblical. He circled right back.
(03:45):
So Bob Garra, who produces the Odd Couple, now has
no time off because you took his time off. You
can't spend time with his kids. Kids can not even
know who he is. Yeah, what's that again? When you
take time off and you have a kid. It's maternity. Fraternity.
Well yeah, paternity, but eternity paternity, pa pa paternity. Yeah
I said that, No you no, you didn't. He actually
(04:06):
did paternity said paternity. Okay there, you're right, you're right
about that. Yeah, no, yeah, it's all right. I throw
a fast ball, yeah, Snell, it's not that fast. No,
come on, snell. H So we'll have more NCAA tournament
coming up in about twenty minutes because we have big
bold predictions that we are now eleven hours away from
(04:26):
the tip off of day one of the end set
first round. But day one we stay. It's still one
of those things bold prediction. My bracket will be blown up.
But no, you wake up, dude. Saint John's Man, I
got Saint John's beating Duke to win the championship. Whoa great?
How about that? I at Saint John's Michigan State Duke
and Tennessee and I got Saint John's battle in a
(04:49):
bottle of rest. Yeah I do, but I have two
of those. I do you have Saint John's If you're smart,
you know have Saint John's. Come on, man, we've been
telling me about Saint john Your bracket's already busted. You
don't have Saint Tree even started. Yeah, Mike's got the
White Sox.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Cold by that over under is up to fifty three
and a half. I'll have you know, hot lights, my
sweet romantic teenage knights.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Come on, man, and you're betting against Brenda and Eddie
and everybody else.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Saint John's when I got to see that down in
San Diego, that duel Bill and Billy joeln Sting and
that started playing, and Rgie Lewis and Canary Richmond were
still playing in Saint John's in the summer in twenty
twenty five when they decided to tournament B.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
At the end of March. Okay, maybe, okay, maybe there's
something there.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Okay, a little bit, we'll get Ai to fill in
the rest, and away we go, Aran.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Engineer, Boots, leather Jackets, tight Blue Jen. Sure, but we
found out today you can scratch one team out of
the running for Aaron Rodgers, and that is the Minnesota Vikings,
who shouldn't have been anywhere near him to begin with.
But I give them credit for making the right decision.
But still they were stupid. All right, now, there is
(06:01):
that because still but still it's because just for just
for thinking about this or kicking this can down the
road where it should have been. No, sorry, we have
our guy because you decided to let Sam Donald block right.
It's great, oh man, all the the Vikings fans are
all fired up again. Uh you let Sam Donald go
(06:23):
because of JJ McCarthy, because you love JJ McCarthy, because
the Vikings love JJ McCarthy and they feel beholden to
him because they took him in the first round. We
have to let Sam Donald go. A guy who's one
of the top three quarterbacks in the in the NFC
last year. Four thousand yards, thirty five touchdowns. What else
do I need to say? Sure fire Pro Bowl quarterback,
one of the top three quarter doesn't matter that he
(06:44):
one of the top three guys in the NFC last year,
and you decided, no, we like our unproven guy so
much we're gonna let him go. Okay, I could disagree
with it, but you made that call. But now you've
been kicking the can and kicking around the last week
and a half. Whatever it is at all, Hey, maybe
Aaron Rodgers could be a guy we bring in. Why
the blank would you do that? Why would you bring
(07:04):
it so Obviously you clearly don't love JJ McCarthy as
much as you say you do, because there should be
no possibility, no avenue, no, not even on all the
alternate earths in the MCU. Should there be an earth
where hey, we let Sam Darnold go and we're bringing
in a Aaron Rodgers who's gonna start, and JJ McCarthy
(07:26):
will at some point be the starting quarterback because Rogers
isn't signing with the Vikings to sit on the bench.
He is. He wanted to go there for some ridiculously
bad reason because you really want to do exactly what
Brett Favre did. But hey, I got Justin Jefferson, I
got Jordan Addison, I got Hawkinson, I got a great line.
I came back everything I need. I got all those
offensive linemen from the Colts. Yeah, I know I'm gonna
(07:47):
go there and not give up this job to JJ
McCarthy saw us coming back as much as he says, sure, sure,
Chuck Foreman, Yeah, everybody, Yeah, everybody, Sammy White, Yeah, I'm
a rashad. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Are we gonna do the same thing, man, where we
have that moment where we go we'll bridge too far
and everybody on the other side of the ball.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
We're gonna bring back Allen Page. Come on, let's go. Hey,
you guys be honorable. The Purple Page sure should get
everybody coming back. Paul Kraus, Yeah, you know, you're a
great team, man. I like this fantasy team. There should
be no Randall McDaniel. There should be no reason you
are even kicking that. He was so good in techno.
(08:28):
He was so good. Uh, there's no reason why you
should herschel Walker be kicking this can around with Aaron
Rodgers because you supposedly love JJ McCarthy, but clearly you don't.
So now this is why I say the Vikings made
the right decision, but they're still stupid because I don't
know why you're not bringing You don't bring in a
quarterback that's gonna challenge the guy that you want to
(08:49):
hand the job to. That doesn't work that way. This
is what I think I could run an NFL team
better than others. I could walk in as one of
those high paid consultants on picture myself, like Gene Hackman
one of those movies where he's a high paid consult
All right, this is what we're gonna do here.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Hey, what he was putting that jury together for runaway jury.
Oh yeah, yeah, that's a good way, Fitch. Yeah, that's
a good character. So so I walk in, I would say, okay,
so let me get straight. Now, you have a guy
you've been trying to solve the quarterback problem here. Yeah okay, Yeah,
you got rid of Kirk Cousins. Yeah, okay, all right, great,
he was good for a long time. Now you think,
all right, maybe the odds are going to even out. No, no, no, hey,
(09:23):
it worked out. You got Sam Donald Yes, okay, he
was great. Yes, So do you want to keep him? No,
you don't know. Well, the thing is, we have a
guy we liked that we drafted that got hurt. Okay,
but you like him, yes, okay, great, So what do
you want to do now? Well, we want to go
after another guy who's older, not quite as good maybe
at the end, and it could be a really difficult situation. Well, well,
why do you want to do that? What are you stupid?
(09:44):
Like Tom Hanks when he tells Geena Davis Lee of
their own we're having a butnt What.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Are you stupid? Come on? Their best hitter on the team.
I don't get why this was even on the Vikings plate.
Why this was even on their radar screen when the
first thoughts came out, Whether it was Aaron Rodgers pushing this, Hey,
I really want to go to Minnesota. This should have
been Kevin O'Connell right away saying that's awesome. JJ McCarthy's
our guy, because that's why you let Sam Donald go,
(10:08):
because clearly you've thought you've thought this through too much.
When honestly, at this point, if you're feeling that weird
about McCarthy, and we know you are because you were
thinking about Rogers, maybe the right decision should have been
let's keep Sam Donald and let's trade JJ McCarthy. Because
you hear all the experts say, hey, McCarthy would be
the number one overall picking this draft if he was available.
(10:29):
You call the Giants and say, hey, JJ McCarthy, give
us that number three pick, give us something else, you
can have the guy. Hey, we'll do it. I think
the Giants wanted McCarthy last year, but somehow they weren't
able to take him. Why wouldn't you have done that
and then you could sign Sam Darnal say okay, well
franchise you, but then sign you so your money gets
lower three year deal for you, Sam, something very similar
to what the Seahawks have done. Because what I saw
(10:51):
was one thing. I saw Sam Darnald do it. I
don't know that JJ McCarthy can do it. What you're
telling me is you think JJ McCarthy is going to
be better than what Sam Darnald is, right, But now
clearly you don't think that way because you were thinking
about Aaron Rodgers. So I really the Vikings wound up
making the right decision, but it was still stupid and
I don't get why that was even on the table
(11:13):
for them the last week and a half. Well, I'm wondering.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
And we had the reports come out in the last
twenty four hours also that a number of teams had
inquired about McCarthy. We have been rumblings about it, but
came to a head yesterday and then into today we
get the no, no, no, Aaron, go on your merry way,
And part of me wonders how much they were waiting
on physical check ins on McCarthy.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Did he have some.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Hurdle he needed to pass in his recovery from the
two knee surgeries, or did it just get to cut
in time of all?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Right? We have to move forward for fear.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
That somehow someway this was going to shake his confidence.
We referenced it a little bit earlier and have a
number of times since it happened when Joe Flacco didn't
got them to the playoffs in Cleveland, but that wasn't
retained because of the fear that it would cause an
issue for Deshaun Watson having him in the building. Same
(12:08):
thing here that maybe for McCarthy. At the eleventh hour,
they said having Aaron Rodgers walk in was not the
best of ideas. And we talk about roster construction. They
did a lot of great things, but you still have
this giant void in that room next to JJ McCarthy.
At this point, you do not have a break glass
in case of emergency.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Guy.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
All those other guys are gone, right Josh Dobbs signed elsewhere?
Who will be quarterbacking after you?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
And I have been Josh Dobbs when you were trying
to figure out remember when the back position was so
tough for you, Yeah, you would think, hey, getting Sam darnold.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Boy, we just went through a really bad year last year.
We got so lucky with Sam drown No let them walk,
But you went through all of that with all of
those guys, and he said, all right, then we'll save
our money and we'll redeploy it elsewhere. And again, really
love the roster, but all of it is on JJ
McCarthy to work here us in the eleventh hour, the
final minutes of that eleventh hour, you're you're suddenly going
(13:04):
to swing a trade, you know whether, And it was
bandied about for a while the hey captain Kirk cousins
have the Falcons eat money and have him Yeah, because
he wants to sit on his ass too.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Right, all of these guys that.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Are at the end of their run, I don't see
them playing nice sandbox of I'll be the mentor. No, no, no,
that's where Joe Flecco was coming back off his couch.
These guys are not coming off the couch after inactivity.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Well, they say their mentor because they don't think they're
going to lose the job. Oh no, I'm okay mentoring
because they're thinking, well, I gotta say that to get in.
I get and I crush it. Because that's Rogers is thinking,
I'm not with these guys to throw too. I'm not
giving up this. Chris Carter, Randy Moss. Oh yeah, you're
kidding hundred percent? Exit outbout a Fresca exit swollen dome.
Jason Smith Mike Harmon Live from the tire rack dot
(13:50):
Com studio. So again, the Vikings wound up making the
right choice, doesn't mean they weren't stupid, right and really,
and you know again they're not as confident in JJ
McCarthy as they say. It is a little nerve wracking.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
And maybe Kevin O'Connell realizing, hey, maybe some of that
stuff was on me. It wasn't all hants Sam, existential
crises in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Could have been on Darren Nelson too. Exit. How about

after a big game as the Musketeers move on taking
down the Long Gorge.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
That was great.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
So a big finish there, second half fantastic. We had
a buzzer beater earlier. I mean, so we've had some
great game. We had that North Carolina thing that happened, yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah, yeah. The first four nights kind of like you
don't need to go to a play and as you're
sitting sometimes you'll have like a curtain riser where there's
just some kind of fun action going on as you
sit down, and the last five minutes or seven minutes
you're in your seat, you're watching it intently and you
are just laughing. It's funny, and then the play starts.
Like that's kind of what the first two nights, the
first four is like, Oh, it's the curtain riser getting
(17:22):
ready for the play.
Speaker 3 (17:23):

the action over the course of the next few days.
Salad course didn't do it for you? No, no, no, no,
I'm thinking you got right to steak. Uh.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Here's some big bold predictions for the next few days
in the NCAATE turn Bold prediction Number one, North Carolina
go to the sweet sixth.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Raise up North Carolina. Look, yes, it's the way they
played last night. You know how big a deal guard
play is. R. J. Davis absolutely took over. He had
an incredible night shooting. North Carolina is playing with a
chip on their shoulder. Oh we shouldn't be in the tournament.
And this can carry you when energy gets low through
(19:21):
a week they've already played a game, they're feeling really good.
And their next two games Ole Miss and most likely
Iowa State because they'll beat Big Daddy Lipscomb. They're winnable games.
These are winnable games. It's not like North Carolina, Hey, okay,
we'll get All Miss, but then Michigan is waiting or
Auburn is waiting. No, these are a couple of winnable games.
(19:42):
And the ACC is a little bit better than people
think it is. Yes, it was a down year for them.
The AC is a little bit better. At the SEC
not quite as good. But North Carolina in especially with
what they have going on and guard play, Yeah, give
me North Carolina.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
The Sweet sixteen, Well, we talked a lot about the
one in twelve quad one and losses. A lot of
them were close. I mean, you had what four losses
by three or Fow's. That's a pretty good margin. So
opportunity to rise up. How about Yukon goes home?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Ah, So America's greatest coach is said home in the
opening round. Do you think if.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
They lose it get out he'd walk off the court card.
I'm still the best coach in the country. I'm still
the best.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
All of you know that. But look at what.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
A jackass Creighton made out of him right when he
was doing the whole hey I've got two rings thing
after a game earlier, and then they took him down.
You know what, he's going down here in the first round.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'd want to see that, just to see the postgame
press conference here questions, Yes, Jim in the back, Yeah,
Danny seeing you lose this game and how good the
Lakers are. Wow, don't you wish it really would have
taken that job?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Well, you know what, I'm a two time champion and
I'm gonna have an opportunity to fight for that third championship.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
You are completely wrong. He would not say a word.
He would just run off of the podium like John
Cheney after John Calipari would be Hey, I'm going to
kill you. Should have taken that Laker job. And the
guy's running around and Hurley's chasing him going You could
have had Luca. You could have coached Luca. What a
big train that was. But nobody told me.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
You glad you spent that week at Disneyland, and you
know your family had a nice all expenses paid trip
to LA You're glad you had that boy, boy be
different for it. If you're coaching that team now, I'll tell you, oh, boy,
now likely you know what that would mean. That would
break our streak of interviewing Alex Caraban, because remember the
last two years Yukon's won the national title, He's come
(21:39):
on the show the last two years. It looked being
their best player. This year, like the.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Now you're saying we're not going to talk to Alex Caraban.
We had a good run with him.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
You know what, he could be our correspondent for the
rest of the tournament since he'll need something to do.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Alex, how do you feel about not being in the
tournam anymore? Alex? I don't really mind. Jason in the back.
You know you take Yeah, you're taking off next week.
What are you worried about. You told me to take
it off. I did tell you you did.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
You did give him the week off, and then you
gave him an inch and he's taking a mile.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I guess I gotta ask. So we talk. Who's your
final four? Tight shirt? You know you had to pick
four teams. I know my final two. Okay. That's why
they do with champions, That's why they call it final two.
So is the Big two? The Big two? What's your
championship game? So I have Troy okay against Grand Canyon.
Oh oh, did you pick Troy after a high school musical? No?
(22:31):
Actually I went with the Brad pitt one. I thought, oh, okay,
I thought you meant you had a guy, So I
had Troy. Yeah, who knows college basketball? Meant my picks
for me? No, okay, Now you have Grand Canyon and
Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon wins, all right, grant ky well,
Grand Canyon, Uh, a lot of depth, the Grand Canyon
a lot of depth. I heard they're very sizeable. Yeah,
it's very sighed. Yeah, their size is tremendous. You don't
(22:52):
even imagine how deep they go. You can't get down low,
you can't get down there's the whole day to get
down there. What you would have to do You would
have to send a horse, wow, filled with players into
Grand Canyon. They would think it's a horse. Everything would
be okay, and then boom, it's over. Everybody comes out
of the horse and look what happens, and they defeat
Grand Canyon. I heard they can go for a long time.
(23:13):
It's the only way to do it. Yeah, it's the
only way to do it, only way wown. See. There
you go, there's your game, there's there's there's your championship.
The hell of a game right there. I like that
bold prediction. Number two. Yeah, at the end of this weekend,
there will be four four SEC teams left in the NCAA.
(23:33):
That's a lot of Elves, Auburn, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee. Those
are your four teams. Four teams left out of the
four team Now why do I say this Number one,
I'm not believing that any any conference is fourteen teams
good into the turn. You can't. You're six and twelve
and you make the NCAA turn. I don't care if
(23:54):
this is that the SEC isn't suddenly this big KOFU
super League from Ted Lasso. Whre I'm getting. We're getting
all the best to know the SEC. Yes they were
pretty good. Were they pretty Yeah? Okay, they were deep.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
But fourteen teams when when five of these teams weren't
even five hundred in conference, You're gonna see it. You're
gonna see teams not good enough go home, and you
are gonna see teams over the course of the next
to the next three days not be able to win
two games to get there. It's gonna be really difficult
because the the second games for teams are gonna be really,
(24:26):
really hard.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
So that's where I look at. I look at the
situation and go, yeah, seeing the matchups here, Yeah, they
should go home. They should go home. They should go
They're not good enough. Four teams. Four teams will make
it out of this weekend.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I have the run of second weekend stops for Gonzaga ending.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Oh poor Gonzaga doing that to Marrow and they had
a good run.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
Oh no, rememberbody's darling for a very very long time.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
They'll say, you know, Drew Timmy has no more eligibility
does he? Like? Can we bring him back at all?
I know he was here for seventeen years, but can
bring him back?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
We got to go, Timmern. I mean five years of
our existence, man, I mean, come on, I think it
was more than five years?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Was it seven? I think it was ninety. I think
it was like eight or ten.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I think I think we aged a full decade with
Drew Timmy taking us through all the way. Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Bold prediction number three. The non Cooper flag players. We
will be talking about because clearly Cooper Flag will be
the guy we're talking about. You know, he's still on
track to play in their first game, probably not needed
against the Mount Saint Mary's, but you know he's on
If he can play, he can play. Get him out
there playing a little bit. Uh. The two players we
(25:39):
will be talking about the most, they're going to increase
their stock that will be stars over the first week
of the turn week plus the tournament. Move on. R J.
Lewis of Saint John's Number one. He's the biggest player
of the year. He is the next great two way
player in college basketball. He doesn't shoot great, but it
doesn't matter. He's still They go to him for their
(26:00):
big shots. He's able to get to the rim. He's
a tremendous defender. Part of the reason that the lynchpin
of that team why they're so good if their defensive
metrics are so good.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
R J.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Lewis number one. Jase Richardson number two. Jason Richardson's kid,
which tells you how old do you hope? Wow, this
is Jason Richardson's kid. I didn't really start, I think
until the middle of February, but wow, watching the Big
Ten tournament he is just you talk about a guy
coming on strong over the course of the past month,
that's him. Obviously there's a big hook with his dad
(26:30):
being a big NBA player for a long time. So yeah,
those are your two guys will talk about r J. Lewis,
Jase Richards.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
I we got our guy from Watford who does the
Granny stout free throws. Yeah, yeah, that'll be get introduced
to him. And he's got to get to the free
throw line.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Don't you have to send him? Don't you call a
phantom foul just to get him.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
There to What's funny though, it was like towards the
end of the regular season, as he got to the
conference tournament, you know, always looking for an angle, it's like,
does this guy have any trading cards, because there's a
guy that people would suddenly just.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Want one in their collection, you know, trading cards.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
So there was no really quick buck opportunity, even in
this new world where they make a lot of college
cards and stuff. I could not No, that's like crypto.
You would have to get that and flip it right away.
Is it showed up in an account? No, no, no, that
would have been gone, like you get it in your
left hand and put it in your right hand in
hand at the sea. That's how fast to go.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
No one guy, we will see once again.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
And look with Gonzaga going out, that means the other
nemhard brother doesn't get any run. So your nemesis, his
brother doesn't come back to no thirty footers with his
eyes closed to win games. We had to Drew timmy joke.
How about one hundred Dickinson still playing at Kansas.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
This is his eleventh year. Sam, he did seven years
at Michigan and this his fifty year at Kansas. Yeah,
that sounds about right. Yeah, at some point, look Kansas
is I mean we have taught how about no conversation
about Kansas at all, like at all in this tournament. None. No,
this is gonna be That's the thing though.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
It's like the changing face and I try to not
age myself out to the ad the heck with this
because we were talking about expansion and excitement and building
this thing out to really a two month event. The
we want to bring in in this made for TV extravaganza.
But it's also the we don't know a lot of
(28:17):
the players and we can't identify him with the team,
right you might know the name. It's like, didn't that
guy go to Well he did, and now he has
bounced to this school and to that school. This is
school number three, and he's already talked about transferring for
his fourth year. So we don't get that same identification
that we did in years pass. Likewise, a lot of
our coaches that we've been watching low these many years
(28:41):
are gone. They've all dipped out in there on television
and radio jobs, which is why we still celebrate when Hey, Tom,
is it I know that guy?
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Right?
Speaker 3 (28:50):
So we have those moments for me? Did you get
into the nostalgia of it all? We've been joking about
the eventual Patino Calipari Matt chip In, whether we can
actually have one of those fighting kind of moments. Here's
a let's go through their histories, all right, redact that year,
Go take that out redacted, redacted, redacted redacted like.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Reading something coming out of government for sure, Hey, redacted
has been very popular.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Last we can't we can't talk about that year because
you look at all these years, like all the listen, hey,
here's the multi champions of coaches. Well, actually, no, there's
an asterisk that one really doesn't count anymore, but he
won it.
Speaker 1 (29:32):

into my head. Oh yeah, he's doing that.

was listening to the radio and then and they were
mentioning the Dodgers and they're pitching and coming in and

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Saint John's when I got to see that down in
San Diego, that duel Bill and Billy joeln Sting and
that started playing, and Rgie Lewis and Canary Richmond were
still playing in Saint John's in the summer in twenty
twenty five when they decided to tournament B.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
At the end of March. Okay, maybe, okay, maybe there's
something there.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Okay, a little bit, we'll get Ai to fill in
the rest, and away we go, Aran.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Engineer, Boots, leather Jackets, tight Blue Jen. Sure, but we
found out today you can scratch one team out of
the running for Aaron Rodgers, and that is the Minnesota Vikings,
who shouldn't have been anywhere near him to begin with.
But I give them credit for making the right decision.
But still they were stupid. All right, now, there is
(06:01):
that because still but still it's because just for just
for thinking about this or kicking this can down the
road where it should have been. No, sorry, we have
our guy because you decided to let Sam Donald block right.
It's great, oh man, all the the Vikings fans are
all fired up again. Uh you let Sam Donald go
(06:23):
because of JJ McCarthy, because you love JJ McCarthy, because
the Vikings love JJ McCarthy and they feel beholden to
him because they took him in the first round. We
have to let Sam Donald go. A guy who's one
of the top three quarterbacks in the in the NFC
last year. Four thousand yards, thirty five touchdowns. What else
do I need to say? Sure fire Pro Bowl quarterback,
one of the top three quarter doesn't matter that he
(06:44):
one of the top three guys in the NFC last year,
and you decided, no, we like our unproven guy so
much we're gonna let him go. Okay, I could disagree
with it, but you made that call. But now you've
been kicking the can and kicking around the last week
and a half. Whatever it is at all, Hey, maybe
Aaron Rodgers could be a guy we bring in. Why
the blank would you do that? Why would you bring
(07:04):
it so Obviously you clearly don't love JJ McCarthy as
much as you say you do, because there should be
no possibility, no avenue, no, not even on all the
alternate earths in the MCU. Should there be an earth
where hey, we let Sam Darnold go and we're bringing
in a Aaron Rodgers who's gonna start, and JJ McCarthy
(07:26):
will at some point be the starting quarterback because Rogers
isn't signing with the Vikings to sit on the bench.
He is. He wanted to go there for some ridiculously
bad reason because you really want to do exactly what
Brett Favre did. But hey, I got Justin Jefferson, I
got Jordan Addison, I got Hawkinson, I got a great line.
I came back everything I need. I got all those
offensive linemen from the Colts. Yeah, I know I'm gonna
(07:47):
go there and not give up this job to JJ
McCarthy saw us coming back as much as he says, sure, sure,
Chuck Foreman, Yeah, everybody, Yeah, everybody, Sammy White, Yeah, I'm
a rashad. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Are we gonna do the same thing, man, where we
have that moment where we go we'll bridge too far
and everybody on the other side of the ball.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
We're gonna bring back Allen Page. Come on, let's go. Hey,
you guys be honorable. The Purple Page sure should get
everybody coming back. Paul Kraus, Yeah, you know, you're a
great team, man. I like this fantasy team. There should
be no Randall McDaniel. There should be no reason you
are even kicking that. He was so good in techno.
(08:28):
He was so good. Uh, there's no reason why you
should herschel Walker be kicking this can around with Aaron
Rodgers because you supposedly love JJ McCarthy, but clearly you don't.
So now this is why I say the Vikings made
the right decision, but they're still stupid because I don't
know why you're not bringing You don't bring in a
quarterback that's gonna challenge the guy that you want to
(08:49):
hand the job to. That doesn't work that way. This
is what I think I could run an NFL team
better than others. I could walk in as one of
those high paid consultants on picture myself, like Gene Hackman
one of those movies where he's a high paid consult
All right, this is what we're gonna do here.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Hey, what he was putting that jury together for runaway jury.
Oh yeah, yeah, that's a good way, Fitch. Yeah, that's
a good character. So so I walk in, I would say, okay,
so let me get straight. Now, you have a guy
you've been trying to solve the quarterback problem here. Yeah okay, Yeah,
you got rid of Kirk Cousins. Yeah, okay, all right, great,
he was good for a long time. Now you think,
all right, maybe the odds are going to even out. No, no, no, hey,
(09:23):
it worked out. You got Sam Donald Yes, okay, he
was great. Yes, So do you want to keep him? No,
you don't know. Well, the thing is, we have a
guy we liked that we drafted that got hurt. Okay,
but you like him, yes, okay, great, So what do
you want to do now? Well, we want to go
after another guy who's older, not quite as good maybe
at the end, and it could be a really difficult situation. Well, well,
why do you want to do that? What are you stupid?
(09:44):
Like Tom Hanks when he tells Geena Davis Lee of
their own we're having a butnt What.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Are you stupid? Come on? Their best hitter on the team.
I don't get why this was even on the Vikings plate.
Why this was even on their radar screen when the
first thoughts came out, Whether it was Aaron Rodgers pushing this, Hey,
I really want to go to Minnesota. This should have
been Kevin O'Connell right away saying that's awesome. JJ McCarthy's
our guy, because that's why you let Sam Donald go,
(10:08):
because clearly you've thought you've thought this through too much.
When honestly, at this point, if you're feeling that weird
about McCarthy, and we know you are because you were
thinking about Rogers, maybe the right decision should have been
let's keep Sam Donald and let's trade JJ McCarthy. Because
you hear all the experts say, hey, McCarthy would be
the number one overall picking this draft if he was available.
(10:29):
You call the Giants and say, hey, JJ McCarthy, give
us that number three pick, give us something else, you
can have the guy. Hey, we'll do it. I think
the Giants wanted McCarthy last year, but somehow they weren't
able to take him. Why wouldn't you have done that
and then you could sign Sam Darnal say okay, well
franchise you, but then sign you so your money gets
lower three year deal for you, Sam, something very similar
to what the Seahawks have done. Because what I saw
(10:51):
was one thing. I saw Sam Darnald do it. I
don't know that JJ McCarthy can do it. What you're
telling me is you think JJ McCarthy is going to
be better than what Sam Darnald is, right, But now
clearly you don't think that way because you were thinking
about Aaron Rodgers. So I really the Vikings wound up
making the right decision, but it was still stupid and
I don't get why that was even on the table
(11:13):
for them the last week and a half. Well, I'm wondering.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
And we had the reports come out in the last
twenty four hours also that a number of teams had
inquired about McCarthy. We have been rumblings about it, but
came to a head yesterday and then into today we
get the no, no, no, Aaron, go on your merry way,
And part of me wonders how much they were waiting
on physical check ins on McCarthy.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Did he have some.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Hurdle he needed to pass in his recovery from the
two knee surgeries, or did it just get to cut
in time of all?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Right? We have to move forward for fear.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
That somehow someway this was going to shake his confidence.
We referenced it a little bit earlier and have a
number of times since it happened when Joe Flacco didn't
got them to the playoffs in Cleveland, but that wasn't
retained because of the fear that it would cause an
issue for Deshaun Watson having him in the building. Same
(12:08):
thing here that maybe for McCarthy. At the eleventh hour,
they said having Aaron Rodgers walk in was not the
best of ideas. And we talk about roster construction. They
did a lot of great things, but you still have
this giant void in that room next to JJ McCarthy.
At this point, you do not have a break glass
in case of emergency.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Guy.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
All those other guys are gone, right Josh Dobbs signed elsewhere?
Who will be quarterbacking after you?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
And I have been Josh Dobbs when you were trying
to figure out remember when the back position was so
tough for you, Yeah, you would think, hey, getting Sam darnold.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Boy, we just went through a really bad year last year.
We got so lucky with Sam drown No let them walk,
But you went through all of that with all of
those guys, and he said, all right, then we'll save
our money and we'll redeploy it elsewhere. And again, really
love the roster, but all of it is on JJ
McCarthy to work here us in the eleventh hour, the
final minutes of that eleventh hour, you're you're suddenly going
(13:04):
to swing a trade, you know whether, And it was
bandied about for a while the hey captain Kirk cousins
have the Falcons eat money and have him Yeah, because
he wants to sit on his ass too.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Right, all of these guys that.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Are at the end of their run, I don't see
them playing nice sandbox of I'll be the mentor. No, no, no,
that's where Joe Flecco was coming back off his couch.
These guys are not coming off the couch after inactivity.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Well, they say their mentor because they don't think they're
going to lose the job. Oh no, I'm okay mentoring
because they're thinking, well, I gotta say that to get in.
I get and I crush it. Because that's Rogers is thinking,
I'm not with these guys to throw too. I'm not
giving up this. Chris Carter, Randy Moss. Oh yeah, you're
kidding hundred percent? Exit outbout a Fresca exit swollen dome.
Jason Smith Mike Harmon Live from the tire rack dot
(13:50):
Com studio. So again, the Vikings wound up making the
right choice, doesn't mean they weren't stupid, right and really,
and you know again they're not as confident in JJ
McCarthy as they say. It is a little nerve wracking.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
And maybe Kevin O'Connell realizing, hey, maybe some of that
stuff was on me. It wasn't all hants Sam, existential
crises in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Could have been on Darren Nelson too. Exit. How about
a Fresca exit swollen dome? Coming up next, Mike and

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Hours from now we tip it off for real the
official day one of the NCACH.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Well, the prelims were pretty good, right the build up
and obviously we had a guest earlier that joined us
after a big game as the Musketeers move on taking
down the Long Gorge.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
That was great.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
So a big finish there, second half fantastic. We had
a buzzer beater earlier. I mean, so we've had some
great game. We had that North Carolina thing that happened, yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah, yeah. The first four nights kind of like you
don't need to go to a play and as you're
sitting sometimes you'll have like a curtain riser where there's
just some kind of fun action going on as you
sit down, and the last five minutes or seven minutes
you're in your seat, you're watching it intently and you
are just laughing. It's funny, and then the play starts.
Like that's kind of what the first two nights, the
first four is like, Oh, it's the curtain riser getting
(17:22):
ready for the play.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
The gastronomic a moose boush, as it were to excite
the palette. Okay, is that a thing?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, because you just you just that just rolled off
your tongue like that was a thing that was pretty good.
The gastronomic moush boush, A moose boosh, a mush bush boosh.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
So it's basically like a little thing for your palate
to get your evening started.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
A moos wait awaken the taste buds Adams bush.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Mosh?
Speaker 1 (17:50):

Speaker 3 (17:52):
A moose a moose San Diegoians, San Diegiants, San Diegoans
move moose moose mouse amuse a moose boose, moose bousch
a moose boucheah, And I cannot lie you other those
can't deny or dervs serve before a meal, typically in
(18:14):
fine dining, designed to stimulate the appetite and awaken the palate.
And that just rolled off my tongue.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
My god, look at her, a mush bousch.
Speaker 4 (18:25):
I like.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
This weekend.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
I think you o, those can't deny you have a
fantastic amouche bouche. So as we get set for the
first non, so what what's after the emuche boush?
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Salad course? Salad? Okay, So as we get set for
the action over the course of the next few days.
Salad course didn't do it for you? No, no, no, no,
I'm thinking you got right to steak. Uh.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Here's some big bold predictions for the next few days
in the NCAATE turn Bold prediction Number one, North Carolina
go to the sweet sixth.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Raise up North Carolina. Look, yes, it's the way they
played last night. You know how big a deal guard
play is. R. J. Davis absolutely took over. He had
an incredible night shooting. North Carolina is playing with a
chip on their shoulder. Oh we shouldn't be in the tournament.
And this can carry you when energy gets low through
(19:21):
a week they've already played a game, they're feeling really good.
And their next two games Ole Miss and most likely
Iowa State because they'll beat Big Daddy Lipscomb. They're winnable games.
These are winnable games. It's not like North Carolina, Hey, okay,
we'll get All Miss, but then Michigan is waiting or
Auburn is waiting. No, these are a couple of winnable games.
(19:42):
And the ACC is a little bit better than people
think it is. Yes, it was a down year for them.
The AC is a little bit better. At the SEC
not quite as good. But North Carolina in especially with
what they have going on and guard play, Yeah, give
me North Carolina.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
The Sweet sixteen, Well, we talked a lot about the
one in twelve quad one and losses. A lot of
them were close. I mean, you had what four losses
by three or Fow's. That's a pretty good margin. So
opportunity to rise up. How about Yukon goes home?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Ah, So America's greatest coach is said home in the
opening round. Do you think if.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
They lose it get out he'd walk off the court card.
I'm still the best coach in the country. I'm still
the best.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
All of you know that. But look at what.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
A jackass Creighton made out of him right when he
was doing the whole hey I've got two rings thing
after a game earlier, and then they took him down.
You know what, he's going down here in the first round.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'd want to see that, just to see the postgame
press conference here questions, Yes, Jim in the back, Yeah,
Danny seeing you lose this game and how good the
Lakers are. Wow, don't you wish it really would have
taken that job?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Well, you know what, I'm a two time champion and
I'm gonna have an opportunity to fight for that third championship.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
You are completely wrong. He would not say a word.
He would just run off of the podium like John
Cheney after John Calipari would be Hey, I'm going to
kill you. Should have taken that Laker job. And the
guy's running around and Hurley's chasing him going You could
have had Luca. You could have coached Luca. What a
big train that was. But nobody told me.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
You glad you spent that week at Disneyland, and you
know your family had a nice all expenses paid trip
to LA You're glad you had that boy, boy be
different for it. If you're coaching that team now, I'll tell you, oh, boy,
now likely you know what that would mean. That would
break our streak of interviewing Alex Caraban, because remember the
last two years Yukon's won the national title, He's come
(21:39):
on the show the last two years. It looked being
their best player. This year, like the.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Now you're saying we're not going to talk to Alex Caraban.
We had a good run with him.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
You know what, he could be our correspondent for the
rest of the tournament since he'll need something to do.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Alex, how do you feel about not being in the
tournam anymore? Alex? I don't really mind. Jason in the back.
You know you take Yeah, you're taking off next week.
What are you worried about. You told me to take
it off. I did tell you you did.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
You did give him the week off, and then you
gave him an inch and he's taking a mile.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I guess I gotta ask. So we talk. Who's your
final four? Tight shirt? You know you had to pick
four teams. I know my final two. Okay. That's why
they do with champions, That's why they call it final two.
So is the Big two? The Big two? What's your
championship game? So I have Troy okay against Grand Canyon.
Oh oh, did you pick Troy after a high school musical? No?
(22:31):
Actually I went with the Brad pitt one. I thought, oh, okay,
I thought you meant you had a guy, So I
had Troy. Yeah, who knows college basketball? Meant my picks
for me? No, okay, Now you have Grand Canyon and
Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon wins, all right, grant ky well,
Grand Canyon, Uh, a lot of depth, the Grand Canyon
a lot of depth. I heard they're very sizeable. Yeah,
it's very sighed. Yeah, their size is tremendous. You don't
(22:52):
even imagine how deep they go. You can't get down low,
you can't get down there's the whole day to get
down there. What you would have to do You would
have to send a horse, wow, filled with players into
Grand Canyon. They would think it's a horse. Everything would
be okay, and then boom, it's over. Everybody comes out
of the horse and look what happens, and they defeat
Grand Canyon. I heard they can go for a long time.
(23:13):
It's the only way to do it. Yeah, it's the
only way to do it, only way wown. See. There
you go, there's your game, there's there's there's your championship.
The hell of a game right there. I like that
bold prediction. Number two. Yeah, at the end of this weekend,
there will be four four SEC teams left in the NCAA.
(23:33):
That's a lot of Elves, Auburn, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee. Those
are your four teams. Four teams left out of the
four team Now why do I say this Number one,
I'm not believing that any any conference is fourteen teams
good into the turn. You can't. You're six and twelve
and you make the NCAA turn. I don't care if
(23:54):
this is that the SEC isn't suddenly this big KOFU
super League from Ted Lasso. Whre I'm getting. We're getting
all the best to know the SEC. Yes they were
pretty good. Were they pretty Yeah? Okay, they were deep.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
But fourteen teams when when five of these teams weren't
even five hundred in conference, You're gonna see it. You're
gonna see teams not good enough go home, and you
are gonna see teams over the course of the next
to the next three days not be able to win
two games to get there. It's gonna be really difficult
because the the second games for teams are gonna be really,
(24:26):
really hard.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
So that's where I look at. I look at the
situation and go, yeah, seeing the matchups here, Yeah, they
should go home. They should go home. They should go
They're not good enough. Four teams. Four teams will make
it out of this weekend.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I have the run of second weekend stops for Gonzaga ending.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Oh poor Gonzaga doing that to Marrow and they had
a good run.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
Oh no, rememberbody's darling for a very very long time.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
They'll say, you know, Drew Timmy has no more eligibility
does he? Like? Can we bring him back at all?
I know he was here for seventeen years, but can
bring him back?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
We got to go, Timmern. I mean five years of
our existence, man, I mean, come on, I think it
was more than five years?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Was it seven? I think it was ninety. I think
it was like eight or ten.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I think I think we aged a full decade with
Drew Timmy taking us through all the way. Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Bold prediction number three. The non Cooper flag players. We
will be talking about because clearly Cooper Flag will be
the guy we're talking about. You know, he's still on
track to play in their first game, probably not needed
against the Mount Saint Mary's, but you know he's on
If he can play, he can play. Get him out
there playing a little bit. Uh. The two players we
(25:39):
will be talking about the most, they're going to increase
their stock that will be stars over the first week
of the turn week plus the tournament. Move on. R J.
Lewis of Saint John's Number one. He's the biggest player
of the year. He is the next great two way
player in college basketball. He doesn't shoot great, but it
doesn't matter. He's still They go to him for their
(26:00):
big shots. He's able to get to the rim. He's
a tremendous defender. Part of the reason that the lynchpin
of that team why they're so good if their defensive
metrics are so good.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
R J.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Lewis number one. Jase Richardson number two. Jason Richardson's kid,
which tells you how old do you hope? Wow, this
is Jason Richardson's kid. I didn't really start, I think
until the middle of February, but wow, watching the Big
Ten tournament he is just you talk about a guy
coming on strong over the course of the past month,
that's him. Obviously there's a big hook with his dad
(26:30):
being a big NBA player for a long time. So yeah,
those are your two guys will talk about r J. Lewis,
Jase Richards.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
I we got our guy from Watford who does the
Granny stout free throws. Yeah, yeah, that'll be get introduced
to him. And he's got to get to the free
throw line.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Don't you have to send him? Don't you call a
phantom foul just to get him.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
There to What's funny though, it was like towards the
end of the regular season, as he got to the
conference tournament, you know, always looking for an angle, it's like,
does this guy have any trading cards, because there's a
guy that people would suddenly just.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Want one in their collection, you know, trading cards.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
So there was no really quick buck opportunity, even in
this new world where they make a lot of college
cards and stuff. I could not No, that's like crypto.
You would have to get that and flip it right away.
Is it showed up in an account? No, no, no, that
would have been gone, like you get it in your
left hand and put it in your right hand in
hand at the sea. That's how fast to go.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
No one guy, we will see once again.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
And look with Gonzaga going out, that means the other
nemhard brother doesn't get any run. So your nemesis, his
brother doesn't come back to no thirty footers with his
eyes closed to win games. We had to Drew timmy joke.
How about one hundred Dickinson still playing at Kansas.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
This is his eleventh year. Sam, he did seven years
at Michigan and this his fifty year at Kansas. Yeah,
that sounds about right. Yeah, at some point, look Kansas
is I mean we have taught how about no conversation
about Kansas at all, like at all in this tournament. None. No,
this is gonna be That's the thing though.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
It's like the changing face and I try to not
age myself out to the ad the heck with this
because we were talking about expansion and excitement and building
this thing out to really a two month event. The
we want to bring in in this made for TV extravaganza.
But it's also the we don't know a lot of
(28:17):
the players and we can't identify him with the team,
