I mean Reister is coming up.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
My guy, George. They talked him a minute in twenty
seven minutes. He do be Wrongster, he does wrong. Rob
G knows it and he still books him anyway. But
it's okay.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
We like George George George Weister, Yes, hosts of the
Unafraid Show on YouTube. So we'll do that and one's
gotta go as well. But Rob G, Caitlin Clark, there
was a story that came out right. We said, no,
it's a book out of a book about Caitlyn Clark
and the idea that they didn't want to pick her
(03:09):
for the Olympic team, not because she's not good, but
she probably wasn't gonna get the playing time that people
would have wanted from her, and that was a deterrent
because they didn't want to hear from they want our fans.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Yeah, Rob, I don't know why you asked me to
tee it up when you kind of teed it up
there yourself, oh, you could do a better job.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Than be Listen, man, you know what, I don't know
what it? Yeah, and then look at you. So we'll
just do a quick segue. I like Rob gting it up.
I'm the talker you tu before we get to Calin Clark.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Going back to what doub said about the YouTube, what
he's telling you is keep watching the YouTube. Hated him
as much as you want the YouTube comments, just not
on a Distagram page.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah you want to hate me.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
They hate me that.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
So you're getting that much.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
But it's kind of crazy, dude, And I don't, like
I said, we got a comic tact and stuff.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
I'm not even on that video.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I don't mind. I don't mind.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Rob G's a little bit clemped I am because m yeah,
because just when he thought he had the record, that's right,
just brought it up to ROGI so humble yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Just because you're getting slim and cute out here, how
well yourself.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
I'm just taking l's right now. But at any event,
Camel Clark lbs. She made her return to the court
earlier today. As you guys, now, I know you never
missed Kaitlyn Clark games.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I've seen one all year.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
I will say it was odd that she played at
like ten am Pacific.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
That was really weird. That was super awkward.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
But it wasn't a great performance by her first game
back from a groin injury. Ten points, four to twelve, shooting,
five rebound six's is, four turnovers and a blowbout loss.
But to your point, the big story coming into today's
game was that new book by Christine Brennan. She did
a whole biography following Kaitlyn Clark, her rise and her
(04:48):
influence on the sporting world, not just in basketball but
in sports period.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
And one of things had a riff. I'm surprised she
wrote this book. Did you have a riff with him?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I don't. I'm not sure.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I have to look into that. But one of the
excerpts that's getting a little run today involves Kaitlyn Clark
being snubbed from the Olympic team last summer.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
You'll recall it was a big much.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Ado about hey, how are you gonna leave out the
most popular women's basketball player in America and leave her
off team USA? And according to Christine Brennan, while sourced
in this book, the reasoning was twofold number one of
the twelve roster spots, one of them was already reserved
for Dana to Rozzie no matter what that they wanted
to give her a chance to get the record breaking
(05:31):
gold medal. So even though there was twelve spots technically available,
there was really only eleven but number two, and most importantly,
you guys alluded to it. The reason why, according to
Christine Brennan, that Kaitlin Clark did not make the Team
USA Olympic team was nothing to do with her abilities,
had everything to do with what the team USA decision
(05:51):
makers deemed were an unruly fan base. Specifically, they believed
if they put her on the roster and she did
not play a lot of minutes, which is kind of
what happens on these Olympic teams. You got so many
good players not a lot of minutes to go around,
that there would have been backlash, There would have been
negative feedback, negative comments, And they just said, hey, we'd
(06:12):
rather leave her off altogether than deal with that.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
And you know what, what, I understand it, and we've
seen this. This is not a Caitlin Clark thing. This
happened to Tim Tebow. He couldn't be a backup quarterback anywhere.
You remember he went to the Jets like because of
the fans, Like, you don't want to deal with that.
What a backup quarterback is supposed to be seen, not heard,
(06:37):
And in her case, fans would not have accepted her
not playing. Remember Jason Tatum, he don't even have smoke
like that. He didn't even have a fan base like that,
and people were worked up over him not getting any run. Right, yeah,
he was the only American on a team like right,
like like who was a wasn't he like all Pro
(06:58):
the only guy was American and he wasn't even on playing.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
So my point was.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
That I understand once they realize she's not going to
be the star that they want her to be and
she's probably not gonna be playing, and then all the
attention from the Olympics would be about what why aren't.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
They playing Caitlyn Clark? Oh they hate her? Oh day
blah blah blah blah blah, all that other stuff. I'll
give you another one.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
That's why teams didn't want to draft Shador Sanders, because
you're gonna be a backup, right, Oh, here we go, how.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Old Shador should replace the starter?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Shador how came we not playing?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
They're just trying to They got a conspiracy in the NFL.
They're trying to put a thumb on Deon Sanders.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
This is racist, this is that. This is all.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
You gotta deal with that. And they're like, we're not
gonna draft him as our starting quarterback. We don't want
to deal with that. We don't want the backup quarterback
to have ten reporters around their locker every day. No,
it becomes a distraction. So I do understand that, Like
there's there's a parameters for depending on where you're gonna
(08:12):
fit in, and you don't want the distraction. So I
do understand that. It makes sense to me, and I
don't have an issue with victim of success and acclaim
that is the problem. Sometimes you're so good, or you're
doing things something so unique and so different. These are
the conversations we start to have, right And this is
my biggest point here too. Fan bases that are bigger
(08:36):
than simply the sport or the athleticism. Rod they bring
extra pr and extra conversations that America ain't ready for,
or that leagues.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
And advertisers don't want to have. Here's what I mean.
You brought up Tim Tebow. Well, if he was just
a good college football player, we've had hundreds, right. No,
it's that he brings his faith with him in conversations
about that, and then it becomes a thing, well we
don't want them to talk about it or we don't
want to do that, and it becomes more than just
simply oh, he's a good college football player.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Right, it becomes more than that Caitlyn Clark because he.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Because he was knealing that football games that right, Nobody
seemed to have a problem with that, right, I thought,
because then that that crowd is like, I'm only here
for football, But what's the ex Jim Deebow is not
only there for football, you know? And I to tell
fans all the time, uh, brush cancer awareness a great cause.
(09:25):
But if you're saying you only hear only.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
Football, military military military military days.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Only people out and all this what what what I
thought about here?
Speaker 4 (09:34):
For final we only we cherry picked when we want
to hear you know, it's it's called confirmation biased and
echo chambers. I only want to hear what I want
to hear. So, uh, this is my thing with this
is what I'm saying now with like Caitlyn Clark. Kaitlyn Clark,
it ain't just about man, she's pretty good, she's averaging
like twenty and ten. No, with her, it comes all
the extra things. It comes, the racial things her and
(09:55):
Angel reees going on. It comes, Oh, is the w
NBA bullying her? All a comes?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Should she be?
Speaker 4 (10:01):
It's Middle America and versus you know, bigger cities and
the Iowa and the Indiana.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
And so when you get these athletes that bring so
many things more than just the athleticism or the game
in which they play, the style in which they play,
this is where it happens. If it's Muhammad Muhammad Ali,
it ain't just he's a great boxer.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I like him or I don't like. It's that he's
speaking about his faith.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
It's speaking up for black in America, speaking about the
rights of all people in America. And so people aren't
ready for that, him having criticisms of America. We ain't
ready for that. So Caitlin Clark, because he's not just
she's a good basketball player. And this is what teams
aren't prepared for. Their pr rob ain't ready for this.
The league isn't ready for some of these conversations that
you have to have with these types of athletes that
(10:45):
bring other conversations. Advertisers, Hey, we don't want to be
associated with that, or we don't always have to answer
these questions, or we don't always want to have to
put up with that, and this.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Is what you get and then you do it. Then
you could grieve me on that. Just the idea of
that they don't want to deal with.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Him wasn't if he had Andrew luck talent. They were like, well,
you know what to deal with is right, But when
you're already okay, you're good and we know you're good,
but that's not the is the lemon, is the juice
worth to squeeze? And I think sometimes in his case not,
we don't want all that extra stuff. Give you a
great example, Michael Vick. They're like, no, man, he's worth
(11:22):
all that because they knew they being the Eagles, we're
gonna get out for a year and a half two year.
People get making fun. But they're like, man, we know
he can play. And he ended up being Comeback Player
of the Year. He put up crazy.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Numbers that he put up, tho numbers he put up
for seven eight years.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
It'd have been in the Hall of Fame, so they
felt it was worth it when it had Michael Vick
and auto criticism that would come with it. The only
thing I also say with the Caitlin Clark in the
Olympics is it goes to show that what we're talking
about the fan base is so crazy because Christian Latner
made the team when you go back to the ninety two,
because they wanted just and there's several people that were like, oh,
that should have been could have been Isaiah Thomas, could
(11:58):
have been another NBA, could have been a pro and
but because he didn't come with all of that other
stuff on her level, we kind of oh, that's kind
of whack that he rather be somebody else and he
ain't even that good compared to the pros. Ah and
we moved on. But with her, it's a big conversation.
I still think they had missed an opportunity to put
her on.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
No, I get it, I really do.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
I understand it though, because I understand it wouldn't have
been happy and then all of the attention on the
Olympic team would be about.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Her and how she's not playing and other great players.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
That's what they didn't want, and I'm saying that it's
I understand the thinking I do.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I still think I toltally.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
I still think they missed an opportunity though, with all
that being said, because to me, it was a global
stage to continue to grow women's game and have more
people watching it. And I still think they missed that,
and you just have to bear with what comes with it.
But I do think they missed the boat not putting
her on the team.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
All right?
Speaker 1 (12:51):

You had Robbie here dancer too hard. You know, I'm

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Just thought about this is the worst of Wednesday. We
can't be talking about Magic City. We're gonna have to
call it something else, Blue Mountain or something.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Call it that all right.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
On the way we got George Reister Hill or Mountain.
I'm sure you have a package of blue Choe or

Taking some phone calls Caitlin Clark massive fan base.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Are they bad for business at times? Could they hinder
her at times?
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Maybe that's a reason why they're saying that she wasn't
on the Olympic team eight seven seven niney nine on Fox.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
We'll take a few calls. Who we got.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Let's go Thomas in Victorville, California. You're on the couple
of Fox sports where you got family up there? What's up, Thomas.
Speaker 9 (15:43):
Hey, it's wonderful to talk to you man again.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Yeah, appreciate you.
Speaker 9 (15:46):
I'm gonna I'm gonna say something that's gonna get me
and anybody who agrees with me in trouble, first of all.
But then I'm gonna need some insight from the expert.
First of all, I think if it comes down to it, okay,
especially if the if the if the patients are running
the asylum, it's a woman issue. These these these players
(16:10):
are caddy to the point where they it's gonna work
to their detriment. They have this newfound power, they have
this newfound element that if they exploited it correctly, everybody
benefits from it. And I don't care if Caitlyn is
Angel resourches anybody.
Speaker 6 (16:29):
It doesn't make a bit of difference.
Speaker 9 (16:31):
If the Olympic team doesn't see the fact that their
airtime exponentially goes up having this young lady on the team.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
Damn it. What are we thinking here now? When it
comes to the NBA, to the w NBA. Let me
ask you, this is the commissioner a woman, h yes, yes, okay, Well, then.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Again I gotta say that somebody is missing the boat
here by saying to the other inmates, listen, we have
to not want to for the betterermen of our league.
For the betterment of our TV contract. She's not only
got to be on the Olympic.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
Team, she's got to be on the two K game.
She's got to be on TV at Christmas.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I'll tell you this, Thomas, I appreciate it. You can't
do that. You cannot the other players.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
You cannot just all put everything on one player and
then expect everybody to fall in line.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
You'll have a mutiny.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
And that was if you remember, there was a reason
that Isaiah and Bird froze out Michael Jordan in the
All Star Game because they felt like the league was
it's all about Mike. Wait a minute, Wait a minute.
That those were guys. So don't act like everybody's gonna
(17:48):
be cool.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
With it, because I completely agree. I think it's easy
to say it's just women hate.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
No women know what it is.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
People have put in work, sweat, equity for years to
get there and all those sudden here you come and
freezing you out the All Star Game. Here you come, Ken.
You can insert anybody here you come, new upstar boxer.
I don't want to hear that we are the ones
we do to put it happens now. It might not
be as pronounced as this has been because why because
this is the loudest has ever been for the WNB,
(18:17):
So we're hearing it more.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
But it happened.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Jordan, Michael Jordan was frozen out All Star Game because
I don't on young pup.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Yeah, you nice, you're good, but this magically, this zekle.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Lee, Yes, this cat Kareem Abdul Jabarsley, settle down, young man,
and it happens all the time.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Steve in Iowa, you're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up? Steve?
Speaker 10 (18:38):
Hey, guys, you're great at entertainment and information. It's fun
to listen to you.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Appreciate you, Steve. It's Steve. That is our goal every day.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
So if you saying that we always want to be
fun and informative, that's our model.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Thank you, Steve.
Speaker 10 (18:52):
For real, well check check the box due.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Thank you.
Speaker 10 (18:56):
I'm an old guy from the Midwest and so Caitlin
play in high school and all that. I don't think
that most of this is about twenty twenty five in
my lifetime. I'm sixty three years old. There have been
four people who have changed sports, not sports, not a sports.
There have been four people in my lifetime who have
(19:18):
changed sports. Mom and Ali, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and
Caitlin Clark. And I think the filter through which to
look at this is a two thousand and thirty four,
two thousand and thirty five filter and looking back at
you'll call it clarkonomics, call it what you will. But
(19:39):
my dad was very anti Mohamed Ali. My dad was
a veteran YEP. A lot of my friends, again old
white guys, now, when Tiger first came out, they're like, well,
who is this kid? I think you look at it
in a historical view, and these four people have changed sports.
(20:01):
So I think the Olympic team, not Olympic team, whether
there's a WNBA, people would be fiant private. Without Caitlin,
I think that's a minimalist view. I think the wider
aperture here is the way we should be looking at this.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Okay, I hear your point, but I also think thanks
for the call, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
But but along with the league we just talked about it,
the players are another part of it, and you can't.
You cannot act like players are going to fall in
line and you're pushing somebody to the front up that
they're just not gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
And we already talked about it. It happened with Michael Jordan.
That didn't stump his growth. It's too great, right.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
People didn't turn on Michael or turn on it's just
birdo Isaiah. They did and it was just like, Okay,
we get it.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Yeah, perfect col Even like I said, Mike Tyson, they're like,
all he's a little phenomenal. He ain't no real boxer,
you know, he ain't just a little beating up tomato
cans like it happens when you're the new hot thing
all the time.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
All right, George Reiser around the corner right now, Mont.

gonna wait and see how this goes. What's happening?
Speaker 6 (21:30):
What man? You already know your boys always Reister never wrong?
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Hey was Dion wrong? Dion was wrong? George, let's hear
your take.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
What was he wrong about?
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Well, Dion comes out and said that he wanted some
type of salary cap, wouldn't like the.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
League about why didn't he do this when his kids
were playing? And and and uh and and shador god?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
How much was it?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
One?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Six? Six six mil? Was it? I thought it was one?
You said six and it was like two Georgian? Why
was it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
He got six point two million, two more, two million
more than he's making with the Browns. But he didn't
he didn't break that drawing when his son was making
the money, or give the money back.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Come on, George, is wrong for Deonna? Doah?
Speaker 6 (22:15):
No, no, no, no, it's one hundred percent right, because
it's what's right for college football is that there needs
to be some parody the issue is is that in
college football right now, there are only you know, twelve,
maybe fifteen teams that actually have a chance to win
a national chance. That's been the case.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
How dare you, Georgia, George, let's go back twenty years ago.
Give me, give me the team that won that that
did that wasn't a power in college football.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
You are one hundred percent right, You are one hundred
percent right. But I'm saying that for college football to
grow and continue to thrive, it needs to embrace the
NFL model of parody in that in that fans need
to believe that over a three year period, if they
if they hire the right coach, recu the right players,
(23:04):
and hopp into transfer portal, that they can win their
conference and get in the college football playoffs.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
George, George can't, George, I cannot believe that you think
college football is to follow the NFL model when you
have in a lot of these college towns that's all
they have, don't hold on, No, they don't need they
don't They've been coming for one hundred years in some
of these places, and they know they're not winning the
(23:31):
national champions.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
This is the problem, rob is that you're stuck in
nineteen No, I'm not right.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Now, give me the place, George, Give me the school,
Give me the school.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I want you to day, George, name the schools.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
Change name the schools.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
George, name the schools where they can't attract any fans
because the fans don't believe they're gonna win. There are
only seven or eight games on a Saturday in these
small college towns.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Are you do you do you believe that there is
a difference from ten years ago. No, No, hold on,
hold on, hold on ten years ago, twenty years ago,
thirty years ago in the mentality of people. Our attentions,
fans have changed, our viewing habits have changed, all sorts
of things. And now people if they don't feel like
(24:22):
that they have and granted college football fans historically, you
are one hundred percent right, Rob. The thing that I'm
saying is is that there's a difference in the people, George.
People now want to have something that that they can say, Wow,
if we get this right, we can have some level
of hope.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Because George, George is.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
That there is no reason why why why Because under
no circumstances George George, Rutgers, Vanderbilt.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
George, I want to ask you one question on this
whole Okay, I'm gonna wait here and you tell me
about the mid major that won the NCAA tournament. Uh,
that that has won an NCAA tournament and people don't
go to college basketball because the teams have no chance
to win. I'll just you you got they've never won, never,
never never.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
You are you are proving my point for me in
that in that in the n cub A Tournament, can
can can George Mason make the final four? Can Butler
play twice in the National Championship yet?
Speaker 9 (25:27):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:28):
But they still haven't won. You just talked about winning.
You talked about winning. They can't win. They have rob No, no,
that's not it.
Speaker 11 (25:37):
No, no, no no.
Speaker 6 (25:38):
If you get to the national championship game you have
well you don't.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
But here's George.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
We've seen that, we've seen the blowout to the games
talking about periodically we've gotten that other team there, TCU,
it has been there, and they always they get beat down.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
They gets up being what we expected to be. That
they don't go along, that they don't belong.
Speaker 6 (26:01):
Hey wait, hold on, you can't say that they don't
belong because somebody on this station knows what TCU did
shut up at for Oh oh yeah, they beat Michigan down.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
It got Smith's act the next round. But hold on,
and here's the thing at Hope. Here's the thing. Here's
the thing.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
The reason why the Hope matters if you want to
play that in college basketball is because they're sixty four
teams and college football there's twelve and you go into
the season. If you are a fan of Kansas State,
I know that I just hate if we can just
beat Oklahoma to see season, if we.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Just yes, yes it is. And the same thing in
Michigan for years.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
College football playoffs this year so like so like even
if they don't eat, even if their fans are like, yeah,
maybe we don't have enough to win yet, but we
can make the college football playoffs this year because we
get But what charge.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
George, But that's been Kansas State for thirty years.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
They come, they pop up for Cantas State pops up
once disappears in ten, twelve, fifteen. My what is that's
been the same swit through it THOUTI and iles the
idea that that Dion, no, it's not.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
You have a salary company in the NFL, and guess what,
I can name you fifteen teams that are not going
to win the Super Bowl. The Jets have won since
nineteen sixty nine. The Lions haven't won the Parks. I
can give you twenty teams, Rob.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
But the difference is is that their fans believe.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
No, they don't hold on, hold on, hold on.
Speaker 6 (27:33):
Here. Here is what their fans believe, Rob, is that
if they get the right coach, if they get the
right free agents and draft the right guys in three years,
that they can be a contender. That's what they believe.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
George Ada, George, I don't buy that. I don't buy that, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Just like people never stopped going to Wrigley Field, they
didn't win in one hundred and fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Do people stop going?
Speaker 7 (27:57):
What?
Speaker 6 (27:58):
Rob? They also played in work. It's not like that
they were destitute and down every single year. That if that,
if that if every time that they played the Yankees,
it was a guaranteed loss. Every time they played the Doctors.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
The Yankees have the most money in Evan once since
two thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
I think I can't give, George is one time you
forced me to be I'm kind of team teaming up
with Rob here and that I think you're under or overstating.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
I think fans know exactly what.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Yes, yes, they went a miracle, but I don't think
I think they I went to Eastern Michigan.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I think I know what I'm walking into. Every now
and again, do we get a Max Frisby and we say.
Speaker 6 (28:36):
Wow, the league about hold up, we're not. I'm not
talking about the Eastern Michigan's I'm just talking about the
power for schools the the sixties.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
So tell me what schools that had the money right,
that have more money, that won. The same schools go
every year, so nothing has really changed. But it hasn't changed.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
It's okay, we can switch gear because it's the same
as the player. I just and I think people are
okay with that. I think people know Alabama, Georgia, Michigan.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
I need to be the commissioner of college football because
I can see the future. You guys are basing this
on the past, which you are one.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
No, but you have no but you have no but
you have you have no data to show me that
people are going to college football games on Saturday because
they don't think their team can win a National champions.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I go to Iowa every Saturday. That's just what we
were doing. There's nothing else going on there.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
George, you'd have to show me numbers different and show
me you have no evidence.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
You're just talking no.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
Rob rob rob Rob, I am forecasting. That's like.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
That.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
What is going to happen is is that is that
with the consolidation of the super conferences and the and
the heightened and the ring culture and everything else, that
that people are going to grow tired of being of
showing up every week at Rutgers, at hell, even Nebraska
(30:08):
now or Vanderbilt because they once you know that it
is within your grasp they and that they should and
that they feel entitled to hold up, hold up, hold
up that if we can get the right coach, we
can get the right recruits, and we can get the
right transfer portal players, that in three years we can
(30:29):
win our conference. Because there should not be a world
we're in a conference that under no circumstances Vanderbilt can
win the conference, that Mississippi State is gonna win win
the conference. There has to be a path to that now.
A granted yes, Oregon, Ohio State, Michigan, Alabama, Georgia are
(30:52):
going to be better longer than those teams, but they
should have some level of opportunity. And mind you, in
no way am I talking about not paying the players.
Because I have a son playing college football. I want
them to make as much money as possible. However, I
do believe that there needs to be some guardrails surrounding
(31:14):
what people can pay and how they can do it.
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
I just feel like Michigan is the all time winning
in school, and they have in for hundreds of years.
There's no surprise that usually they pop back in the
good Ohio State, Alabama.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
I just feel like we've been here since the Louisiana
approaches too.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
It's like just because you started out coming from a
billionaire family like Michigan or or Alabama or Penn State
who's been good since or Oklahoma or Texas who's been
good since the beginning of college football, but basically that
you should not have any sort of way to level
(31:55):
the playing field on some level. That way the game
can grow because the thing that makes NFL ratings so great,
the thing that makes the.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Game that's called gambling called gambling, yes, and that's business
That's what it is is gambling.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
It has nothing doing anything else is gambling, Rob.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
Yes, it is. The difference is is that is that
if you get a twelve point spread in an NFL game,
that is massive.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
And the difference thing now we sort of lines with
nine and a half point favorites in a playoff game
against Washington.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Not and a half, and in college football you get
lines twenty six, thirty five, thirty eight. And the difference
is is that people do not believe it. Well, sorry,
in the NFL, people believe that that that any week
the best team in the league can lose to the
worst team in the league.
Speaker 4 (32:50):
And they don't feel that in college and that has
been the case and we hear you, but that's been
the case for centuries.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
So I just don't see that changing. All right, George,
we want to have to get three four, five things,
but that it didn't happen. Appreciate you, thank you, and
officially George wrong star on this one.
Speaker 6 (33:05):
Hey, hey, hey y'all, can y'all can be to get
off my we are and.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
You know what, Tell your kid to give it an
il money back, all right, I want you to give
you Tell your kid to give it to Iowa State.
Whatever you tell your kid to, George, tell your kid
to give them money to some.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
If you don't get off phone, GEORGI Domas, all right
by predict the future. Thank you, George, George, Reister Georgeia

it out.
Speaker 6 (34:27):
Run me out.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
I'm running a long time with George Rongster aka George Reister.
Took our time, Let's get to it. So I had
to do on the show today, Rob, I had to
have We had some professional volleyball players on, and of
course they throw me out there in the net and
your boy was pretty good, and the whole crew said,
I didn't think you're gonna be that good.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
I said, yo, I'm pretty proficient at everything. Monty. I'm
posting on Graham. You'll see it. A man, don't make
that face.
Speaker 4 (34:46):
So my question is this, there are certain things that
I feel you should be able to do, not at
the level of a pro, but you should be solid
at the set things. Here we go the list. I
feel everybody should be able to be decent. That's swinging
it back. You ain't got to be Aaron Judge the show. Hey,
swinging it back. You should be able to you know,
all right, I'm not not to embarrass yourself throw a football.
(35:08):
You should be You ain't got to be Pat Mahomes,
shut up, Rob, But you should be able to throw
football Pat Mahomes three years ago.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Make him feel better. You should be able to shoot
a basketball.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
You ain't gotta be Stephan ray Island or Reggie Miller
Larry Bird, but dang it, you gotta be able to
shoot a basket, So all right, not embarrass yourself. Kick
a soccer ball. You shouldn't whi and then fall in
your backside. Hey, just I kicked the ball. You don't again,
you ain't got to be Pele's brother. And lastly, and
I've seen you do this, you gotta be able to
bowl a little bit decently. You gotta be able to
throw it down again, not embarrassing shop, not saying again
(35:40):
you got to be Chris Paul or since he said, well,
they say he's the greatest Messi and Vernaldo.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
But I'm saying that was interesting. Listen, listen, you can't
use all those God no, he's a younger guy. Okay,
you fix someone else. I shocked.
Speaker 4 (35:57):
All right, So here we go, run a short on time.
Anybody want to go give me the one that you
you feel as if. All right, if you can't do that,
that's just embarrassing bowling. You least throw a ball, you know,
roll the ball down there, kick a soccer ball, shoot
a basketball, throw a football, swing a back, if there's
the one that has to.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Go there, like all right, if you can't do that,
that's just come on bro to me. It's swing a bat.
Oh I'm eliminating one, right, I'm saying. No, that's good.
You're saying if you can't swing a bat.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Yeah, I wish you would have had to throw a
ball in there instead of swinging a bat. No, I'm
gonna say about the throw winners for the kick kick
a soccer ball. You gotta be able to kick a ball,
just a stationary ball kicking.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
If you can't kick, you all right, Alex Rob g Manzi, Yeah,
I guess something with Rob on this swing with the ball,
like I feel like bullying. You know, it's a little
bit harder to make it go straight and all that
good stuff. Yeah, you have to be able to kick
(36:58):
good contact, good contact.
Speaker 7 (37:01):
Okay, okay, yeah, this is easy. This segment's gotta go.
I thought this one's gotta go, But this is one
you gotta do.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
No, you're not listening. I am listening. I'm confused. What
is the one that has to go to? You say?
If you can't do that, Like, okay, you gotta go,
can't you got?
Speaker 9 (37:16):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (37:16):
If you can't do this, you've got exactly like that? Better,
that's it? Okay.
Speaker 7 (37:20):
After watching Rob Parker's immaculate swing at his softball games
and he almost hit it out of the park, I
wish you'd put running the bases.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Wait, so you can't run?
Speaker 6 (37:31):
Is that what we got?
Speaker 2 (37:31):

the speed store on them, Rob, ge, hurry up, we're
running low?
Speaker 6 (37:38):
What you got?
Speaker 2 (37:38):
This was easy?
Speaker 5 (37:39):
There's only one of these that gives you an actual assistance,
and that is bowling, because they will put the little
guttered things up to make sure you can throw it straight.
And if you can't get a strike doing that, then
just leave the bowling out.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
All right? Mine is shoot a basketball?
Speaker 4 (37:54):
Nobody say you gotta be pur but if you just

I mean Reister is coming up.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
My guy, George. They talked him a minute in twenty
seven minutes. He do be Wrongster, he does wrong. Rob
G knows it and he still books him anyway. But
it's okay.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
We like George George George Weister, Yes, hosts of the
Unafraid Show on YouTube. So we'll do that and one's
gotta go as well. But Rob G, Caitlin Clark, there
was a story that came out right. We said, no,
it's a book out of a book about Caitlyn Clark
and the idea that they didn't want to pick her
(03:09):
for the Olympic team, not because she's not good, but
she probably wasn't gonna get the playing time that people
would have wanted from her, and that was a deterrent
because they didn't want to hear from they want our fans.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Yeah, Rob, I don't know why you asked me to
tee it up when you kind of teed it up
there yourself, oh, you could do a better job.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Than be Listen, man, you know what, I don't know
what it? Yeah, and then look at you. So we'll
just do a quick segue. I like Rob gting it up.
I'm the talker you tu before we get to Calin Clark.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Going back to what doub said about the YouTube, what
he's telling you is keep watching the YouTube. Hated him
as much as you want the YouTube comments, just not
on a Distagram page.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah you want to hate me.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
They hate me that.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
So you're getting that much.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
But it's kind of crazy, dude, And I don't, like
I said, we got a comic tact and stuff.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
I'm not even on that video.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I don't mind. I don't mind.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Rob G's a little bit clemped I am because m yeah,
because just when he thought he had the record, that's right,
just brought it up to ROGI so humble yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Just because you're getting slim and cute out here, how
well yourself.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
I'm just taking l's right now. But at any event,
Camel Clark lbs. She made her return to the court
earlier today. As you guys, now, I know you never
missed Kaitlyn Clark games.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I've seen one all year.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
I will say it was odd that she played at
like ten am Pacific.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
That was really weird. That was super awkward.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
But it wasn't a great performance by her first game
back from a groin injury. Ten points, four to twelve, shooting,
five rebound six's is, four turnovers and a blowbout loss.
But to your point, the big story coming into today's
game was that new book by Christine Brennan. She did
a whole biography following Kaitlyn Clark, her rise and her
(04:48):
influence on the sporting world, not just in basketball but
in sports period.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
And one of things had a riff. I'm surprised she
wrote this book. Did you have a riff with him?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I don't. I'm not sure.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I have to look into that. But one of the
excerpts that's getting a little run today involves Kaitlyn Clark
being snubbed from the Olympic team last summer.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
You'll recall it was a big much.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Ado about hey, how are you gonna leave out the
most popular women's basketball player in America and leave her
off team USA? And according to Christine Brennan, while sourced
in this book, the reasoning was twofold number one of
the twelve roster spots, one of them was already reserved
for Dana to Rozzie no matter what that they wanted
to give her a chance to get the record breaking
(05:31):
gold medal. So even though there was twelve spots technically available,
there was really only eleven but number two, and most importantly,
you guys alluded to it. The reason why, according to
Christine Brennan, that Kaitlin Clark did not make the Team
USA Olympic team was nothing to do with her abilities,
had everything to do with what the team USA decision
(05:51):
makers deemed were an unruly fan base. Specifically, they believed
if they put her on the roster and she did
not play a lot of minutes, which is kind of
what happens on these Olympic teams. You got so many
good players not a lot of minutes to go around,
that there would have been backlash, There would have been
negative feedback, negative comments, And they just said, hey, we'd
(06:12):
rather leave her off altogether than deal with that.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
And you know what, what, I understand it, and we've
seen this. This is not a Caitlin Clark thing. This
happened to Tim Tebow. He couldn't be a backup quarterback anywhere.
You remember he went to the Jets like because of
the fans, Like, you don't want to deal with that.
What a backup quarterback is supposed to be seen, not heard,
(06:37):
And in her case, fans would not have accepted her
not playing. Remember Jason Tatum, he don't even have smoke
like that. He didn't even have a fan base like that,
and people were worked up over him not getting any run. Right, yeah,
he was the only American on a team like right,
like like who was a wasn't he like all Pro
(06:58):
the only guy was American and he wasn't even on playing.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
So my point was.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
That I understand once they realize she's not going to
be the star that they want her to be and
she's probably not gonna be playing, and then all the
attention from the Olympics would be about what why aren't.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
They playing Caitlyn Clark? Oh they hate her? Oh day
blah blah blah blah blah, all that other stuff. I'll
give you another one.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
That's why teams didn't want to draft Shador Sanders, because
you're gonna be a backup, right, Oh, here we go, how.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Old Shador should replace the starter?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Shador how came we not playing?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
They're just trying to They got a conspiracy in the NFL.
They're trying to put a thumb on Deon Sanders.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
This is racist, this is that. This is all.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
You gotta deal with that. And they're like, we're not
gonna draft him as our starting quarterback. We don't want
to deal with that. We don't want the backup quarterback
to have ten reporters around their locker every day. No,
it becomes a distraction. So I do understand that, Like
there's there's a parameters for depending on where you're gonna
(08:12):
fit in, and you don't want the distraction. So I
do understand that. It makes sense to me, and I
don't have an issue with victim of success and acclaim
that is the problem. Sometimes you're so good, or you're
doing things something so unique and so different. These are
the conversations we start to have, right And this is
my biggest point here too. Fan bases that are bigger
(08:36):
than simply the sport or the athleticism. Rod they bring
extra pr and extra conversations that America ain't ready for,
or that leagues.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
And advertisers don't want to have. Here's what I mean.
You brought up Tim Tebow. Well, if he was just
a good college football player, we've had hundreds, right. No,
it's that he brings his faith with him in conversations
about that, and then it becomes a thing, well we
don't want them to talk about it or we don't
want to do that, and it becomes more than just
simply oh, he's a good college football player.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Right, it becomes more than that Caitlyn Clark because he.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Because he was knealing that football games that right, Nobody
seemed to have a problem with that, right, I thought,
because then that that crowd is like, I'm only here
for football, But what's the ex Jim Deebow is not
only there for football, you know? And I to tell
fans all the time, uh, brush cancer awareness a great cause.
(09:25):
But if you're saying you only hear only.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
Football, military military military military days.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Only people out and all this what what what I
thought about here?
Speaker 4 (09:34):
For final we only we cherry picked when we want
to hear you know, it's it's called confirmation biased and
echo chambers. I only want to hear what I want
to hear. So, uh, this is my thing with this
is what I'm saying now with like Caitlyn Clark. Kaitlyn Clark,
it ain't just about man, she's pretty good, she's averaging
like twenty and ten. No, with her, it comes all
the extra things. It comes, the racial things her and
(09:55):
Angel reees going on. It comes, Oh, is the w
NBA bullying her? All a comes?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Should she be?
Speaker 4 (10:01):
It's Middle America and versus you know, bigger cities and
the Iowa and the Indiana.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
And so when you get these athletes that bring so
many things more than just the athleticism or the game
in which they play, the style in which they play,
this is where it happens. If it's Muhammad Muhammad Ali,
it ain't just he's a great boxer.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I like him or I don't like. It's that he's
speaking about his faith.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
It's speaking up for black in America, speaking about the
rights of all people in America. And so people aren't
ready for that, him having criticisms of America. We ain't
ready for that. So Caitlin Clark, because he's not just
she's a good basketball player. And this is what teams
aren't prepared for. Their pr rob ain't ready for this.
The league isn't ready for some of these conversations that
you have to have with these types of athletes that
(10:45):
bring other conversations. Advertisers, Hey, we don't want to be
associated with that, or we don't always have to answer
these questions, or we don't always want to have to
put up with that, and this.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Is what you get and then you do it. Then
you could grieve me on that. Just the idea of
that they don't want to deal with.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Him wasn't if he had Andrew luck talent. They were like, well,
you know what to deal with is right, But when
you're already okay, you're good and we know you're good,
but that's not the is the lemon, is the juice
worth to squeeze? And I think sometimes in his case not,
we don't want all that extra stuff. Give you a
great example, Michael Vick. They're like, no, man, he's worth
(11:22):
all that because they knew they being the Eagles, we're
gonna get out for a year and a half two year.
People get making fun. But they're like, man, we know
he can play. And he ended up being Comeback Player
of the Year. He put up crazy.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Numbers that he put up, tho numbers he put up
for seven eight years.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
It'd have been in the Hall of Fame, so they
felt it was worth it when it had Michael Vick
and auto criticism that would come with it. The only
thing I also say with the Caitlin Clark in the
Olympics is it goes to show that what we're talking
about the fan base is so crazy because Christian Latner
made the team when you go back to the ninety two,
because they wanted just and there's several people that were like, oh,
that should have been could have been Isaiah Thomas, could
(11:58):
have been another NBA, could have been a pro and
but because he didn't come with all of that other
stuff on her level, we kind of oh, that's kind
of whack that he rather be somebody else and he
ain't even that good compared to the pros. Ah and
we moved on. But with her, it's a big conversation.
I still think they had missed an opportunity to put
her on.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
No, I get it, I really do.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
I understand it though, because I understand it wouldn't have
been happy and then all of the attention on the
Olympic team would be about.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Her and how she's not playing and other great players.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
That's what they didn't want, and I'm saying that it's
I understand the thinking I do.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I still think I toltally.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
I still think they missed an opportunity though, with all
that being said, because to me, it was a global
stage to continue to grow women's game and have more
people watching it. And I still think they missed that,
and you just have to bear with what comes with it.
But I do think they missed the boat not putting
her on the team.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
All right?
Speaker 1 (12:51):

Speaker 2 (14:25):
You had Robbie here dancer too hard. You know, I'm
gonna go to Magic City on Sunday night.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Just thought about this is the worst of Wednesday. We
can't be talking about Magic City. We're gonna have to
call it something else, Blue Mountain or something.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Call it that all right.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
On the way we got George Reister Hill or Mountain.
I'm sure you have a package of blue Choe or
some other pills. I'm n ain't right, but I'm still
riding it. That's the alive pill is blue on which
you think.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I was talking about? What I'm talking George Reister or Rongster.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
We're gonna talk to him what he's depending on what
he will see, what he's saying, depending on what his

Speaker 2 (15:03):

Speaker 6 (15:05):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (15:05):

back joints not cooperating. Some days your body's just like nope.
In other days. Thank god. There is a leave with
just one pill. The Elite peel we're talking about. A
lee provides up to twelve hours of paying release so
you can keep moving. So use as directed, all right,
Taking some phone calls Caitlin Clark massive fan base.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Are they bad for business at times? Could they hinder
her at times?
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Maybe that's a reason why they're saying that she wasn't
on the Olympic team eight seven seven niney nine on Fox.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
We'll take a few calls. Who we got.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Let's go Thomas in Victorville, California. You're on the couple
of Fox sports where you got family up there? What's up, Thomas.
Speaker 9 (15:43):
Hey, it's wonderful to talk to you man again.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Yeah, appreciate you.
Speaker 9 (15:46):
I'm gonna I'm gonna say something that's gonna get me
and anybody who agrees with me in trouble, first of all.
But then I'm gonna need some insight from the expert.
First of all, I think if it comes down to it, okay,
especially if the if the if the patients are running
the asylum, it's a woman issue. These these these players
(16:10):
are caddy to the point where they it's gonna work
to their detriment. They have this newfound power, they have
this newfound element that if they exploited it correctly, everybody
benefits from it. And I don't care if Caitlyn is
Angel resourches anybody.
Speaker 6 (16:29):
It doesn't make a bit of difference.
Speaker 9 (16:31):
If the Olympic team doesn't see the fact that their
airtime exponentially goes up having this young lady on the team.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
Damn it. What are we thinking here now? When it
comes to the NBA, to the w NBA. Let me
ask you, this is the commissioner a woman, h yes, yes, okay, Well, then.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Again I gotta say that somebody is missing the boat
here by saying to the other inmates, listen, we have
to not want to for the betterermen of our league.
For the betterment of our TV contract. She's not only
got to be on the Olympic.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
Team, she's got to be on the two K game.
She's got to be on TV at Christmas.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I'll tell you this, Thomas, I appreciate it. You can't
do that. You cannot the other players.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
You cannot just all put everything on one player and
then expect everybody to fall in line.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
You'll have a mutiny.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
And that was if you remember, there was a reason
that Isaiah and Bird froze out Michael Jordan in the
All Star Game because they felt like the league was
it's all about Mike. Wait a minute, Wait a minute.
That those were guys. So don't act like everybody's gonna
(17:48):
be cool.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
With it, because I completely agree. I think it's easy
to say it's just women hate.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
No women know what it is.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
People have put in work, sweat, equity for years to
get there and all those sudden here you come and
freezing you out the All Star Game. Here you come, Ken.
You can insert anybody here you come, new upstar boxer.
I don't want to hear that we are the ones
we do to put it happens now. It might not
be as pronounced as this has been because why because
this is the loudest has ever been for the WNB,
(18:17):
So we're hearing it more.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
But it happened.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Jordan, Michael Jordan was frozen out All Star Game because
I don't on young pup.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Yeah, you nice, you're good, but this magically, this zekle.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Lee, Yes, this cat Kareem Abdul Jabarsley, settle down, young man,
and it happens all the time.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Steve in Iowa, you're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up? Steve?
Speaker 10 (18:38):
Hey, guys, you're great at entertainment and information. It's fun
to listen to you.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Appreciate you, Steve. It's Steve. That is our goal every day.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
So if you saying that we always want to be
fun and informative, that's our model.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Thank you, Steve.
Speaker 10 (18:52):
For real, well check check the box due.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Thank you.
Speaker 10 (18:56):
I'm an old guy from the Midwest and so Caitlin
play in high school and all that. I don't think
that most of this is about twenty twenty five in
my lifetime. I'm sixty three years old. There have been
four people who have changed sports, not sports, not a sports.
There have been four people in my lifetime who have
(19:18):
changed sports. Mom and Ali, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and
Caitlin Clark. And I think the filter through which to
look at this is a two thousand and thirty four,
two thousand and thirty five filter and looking back at
you'll call it clarkonomics, call it what you will. But
(19:39):
my dad was very anti Mohamed Ali. My dad was
a veteran YEP. A lot of my friends, again old
white guys, now, when Tiger first came out, they're like, well,
who is this kid? I think you look at it
in a historical view, and these four people have changed sports.
(20:01):
So I think the Olympic team, not Olympic team, whether
there's a WNBA, people would be fiant private. Without Caitlin,
I think that's a minimalist view. I think the wider
aperture here is the way we should be looking at this.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Okay, I hear your point, but I also think thanks
for the call, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
But but along with the league we just talked about it,
the players are another part of it, and you can't.
You cannot act like players are going to fall in
line and you're pushing somebody to the front up that
they're just not gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
And we already talked about it. It happened with Michael Jordan.
That didn't stump his growth. It's too great, right.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
People didn't turn on Michael or turn on it's just
birdo Isaiah. They did and it was just like, Okay,
we get it.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Yeah, perfect col Even like I said, Mike Tyson, they're like,
all he's a little phenomenal. He ain't no real boxer,
you know, he ain't just a little beating up tomato
cans like it happens when you're the new hot thing
all the time.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
All right, George Reiser around the corner right now, Mont.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio
dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search f s
R to listen live.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
All right, Monci, thank you.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Yes, our couple Rob Parker Kevin Washington on a worship Wednesday.
And now we are joined by our guy, George Reister
and host of The Unafraid Show on YouTube. George Reister
call him wrongster earlier. Yeah, well, you know we said
were gonna see, we gonna see what this takes sorted.
We'll see if he's We're gonna we're gonna wait. We're
gonna wait and see how this goes. What's happening?
Speaker 6 (21:30):
What man? You already know your boys always Reister never wrong?
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Hey was Dion wrong? Dion was wrong? George, let's hear
your take.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
What was he wrong about?
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Well, Dion comes out and said that he wanted some
type of salary cap, wouldn't like the.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
League about why didn't he do this when his kids
were playing? And and and uh and and shador god?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
How much was it?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
One?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Six? Six six mil? Was it? I thought it was one?
You said six and it was like two Georgian? Why
was it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
He got six point two million, two more, two million
more than he's making with the Browns. But he didn't
he didn't break that drawing when his son was making
the money, or give the money back.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Come on, George, is wrong for Deonna? Doah?
Speaker 6 (22:15):
No, no, no, no, it's one hundred percent right, because
it's what's right for college football is that there needs
to be some parody the issue is is that in
college football right now, there are only you know, twelve,
maybe fifteen teams that actually have a chance to win
a national chance. That's been the case.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
How dare you, Georgia, George, let's go back twenty years ago.
Give me, give me the team that won that that
did that wasn't a power in college football.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
You are one hundred percent right, You are one hundred
percent right. But I'm saying that for college football to
grow and continue to thrive, it needs to embrace the
NFL model of parody in that in that fans need
to believe that over a three year period, if they
if they hire the right coach, recu the right players,
(23:04):
and hopp into transfer portal, that they can win their
conference and get in the college football playoffs.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
George, George can't, George, I cannot believe that you think
college football is to follow the NFL model when you
have in a lot of these college towns that's all
they have, don't hold on, No, they don't need they
don't They've been coming for one hundred years in some
of these places, and they know they're not winning the
(23:31):
national champions.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
This is the problem, rob is that you're stuck in
nineteen No, I'm not right.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Now, give me the place, George, Give me the school,
Give me the school.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I want you to day, George, name the schools.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
Change name the schools.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
George, name the schools where they can't attract any fans
because the fans don't believe they're gonna win. There are
only seven or eight games on a Saturday in these
small college towns.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Are you do you do you believe that there is
a difference from ten years ago. No, No, hold on,
hold on, hold on ten years ago, twenty years ago,
thirty years ago in the mentality of people. Our attentions,
fans have changed, our viewing habits have changed, all sorts
of things. And now people if they don't feel like
(24:22):
that they have and granted college football fans historically, you
are one hundred percent right, Rob. The thing that I'm
saying is is that there's a difference in the people, George.
People now want to have something that that they can say, Wow,
if we get this right, we can have some level
of hope.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Because George, George is.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
That there is no reason why why why Because under
no circumstances George George, Rutgers, Vanderbilt.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
George, I want to ask you one question on this
whole Okay, I'm gonna wait here and you tell me
about the mid major that won the NCAA tournament. Uh,
that that has won an NCAA tournament and people don't
go to college basketball because the teams have no chance
to win. I'll just you you got they've never won, never,
never never.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
You are you are proving my point for me in
that in that in the n cub A Tournament, can
can can George Mason make the final four? Can Butler
play twice in the National Championship yet?
Speaker 9 (25:27):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:28):
But they still haven't won. You just talked about winning.
You talked about winning. They can't win. They have rob No, no,
that's not it.
Speaker 11 (25:37):
No, no, no no.
Speaker 6 (25:38):
If you get to the national championship game you have
well you don't.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
But here's George.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
We've seen that, we've seen the blowout to the games
talking about periodically we've gotten that other team there, TCU,
it has been there, and they always they get beat down.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
They gets up being what we expected to be. That
they don't go along, that they don't belong.
Speaker 6 (26:01):
Hey wait, hold on, you can't say that they don't
belong because somebody on this station knows what TCU did
shut up at for Oh oh yeah, they beat Michigan down.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
It got Smith's act the next round. But hold on,
and here's the thing at Hope. Here's the thing. Here's
the thing.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
The reason why the Hope matters if you want to
play that in college basketball is because they're sixty four
teams and college football there's twelve and you go into
the season. If you are a fan of Kansas State,
I know that I just hate if we can just
beat Oklahoma to see season, if we.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Just yes, yes it is. And the same thing in
Michigan for years.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
College football playoffs this year so like so like even
if they don't eat, even if their fans are like, yeah,
maybe we don't have enough to win yet, but we
can make the college football playoffs this year because we
get But what charge.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
George, But that's been Kansas State for thirty years.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
They come, they pop up for Cantas State pops up
once disappears in ten, twelve, fifteen. My what is that's
been the same swit through it THOUTI and iles the
idea that that Dion, no, it's not.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
You have a salary company in the NFL, and guess what,
I can name you fifteen teams that are not going
to win the Super Bowl. The Jets have won since
nineteen sixty nine. The Lions haven't won the Parks. I
can give you twenty teams, Rob.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
But the difference is is that their fans believe.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
No, they don't hold on, hold on, hold on.
Speaker 6 (27:33):
Here. Here is what their fans believe, Rob, is that
if they get the right coach, if they get the
right free agents and draft the right guys in three years,
that they can be a contender. That's what they believe.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
George Ada, George, I don't buy that. I don't buy that, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Just like people never stopped going to Wrigley Field, they
didn't win in one hundred and fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Do people stop going?
Speaker 7 (27:57):
What?
Speaker 6 (27:58):
Rob? They also played in work. It's not like that
they were destitute and down every single year. That if that,
if that if every time that they played the Yankees,
it was a guaranteed loss. Every time they played the Doctors.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
The Yankees have the most money in Evan once since
two thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
I think I can't give, George is one time you
forced me to be I'm kind of team teaming up
with Rob here and that I think you're under or overstating.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
I think fans know exactly what.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Yes, yes, they went a miracle, but I don't think
I think they I went to Eastern Michigan.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I think I know what I'm walking into. Every now
and again, do we get a Max Frisby and we say.
Speaker 6 (28:36):
Wow, the league about hold up, we're not. I'm not
talking about the Eastern Michigan's I'm just talking about the
power for schools the the sixties.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
So tell me what schools that had the money right,
that have more money, that won. The same schools go
every year, so nothing has really changed. But it hasn't changed.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
It's okay, we can switch gear because it's the same
as the player. I just and I think people are
okay with that. I think people know Alabama, Georgia, Michigan.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
I need to be the commissioner of college football because
I can see the future. You guys are basing this
on the past, which you are one.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
No, but you have no but you have no but
you have you have no data to show me that
people are going to college football games on Saturday because
they don't think their team can win a National champions.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I go to Iowa every Saturday. That's just what we
were doing. There's nothing else going on there.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
George, you'd have to show me numbers different and show
me you have no evidence.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
You're just talking no.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
Rob rob rob Rob, I am forecasting. That's like.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
That.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
What is going to happen is is that is that
with the consolidation of the super conferences and the and
the heightened and the ring culture and everything else, that
that people are going to grow tired of being of
showing up every week at Rutgers, at hell, even Nebraska
(30:08):
now or Vanderbilt because they once you know that it
is within your grasp they and that they should and
that they feel entitled to hold up, hold up, hold
up that if we can get the right coach, we
can get the right recruits, and we can get the
right transfer portal players, that in three years we can
(30:29):
win our conference. Because there should not be a world
we're in a conference that under no circumstances Vanderbilt can
win the conference, that Mississippi State is gonna win win
the conference. There has to be a path to that now.
A granted yes, Oregon, Ohio State, Michigan, Alabama, Georgia are
(30:52):
going to be better longer than those teams, but they
should have some level of opportunity. And mind you, in
no way am I talking about not paying the players.
Because I have a son playing college football. I want
them to make as much money as possible. However, I
do believe that there needs to be some guardrails surrounding
(31:14):
what people can pay and how they can do it.
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
I just feel like Michigan is the all time winning
in school, and they have in for hundreds of years.
There's no surprise that usually they pop back in the
good Ohio State, Alabama.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
I just feel like we've been here since the Louisiana
approaches too.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
It's like just because you started out coming from a
billionaire family like Michigan or or Alabama or Penn State
who's been good since or Oklahoma or Texas who's been
good since the beginning of college football, but basically that
you should not have any sort of way to level
(31:55):
the playing field on some level. That way the game
can grow because the thing that makes NFL ratings so great,
the thing that makes the.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Game that's called gambling called gambling, yes, and that's business
That's what it is is gambling.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
It has nothing doing anything else is gambling, Rob.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
Yes, it is. The difference is is that is that
if you get a twelve point spread in an NFL game,
that is massive.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
And the difference thing now we sort of lines with
nine and a half point favorites in a playoff game
against Washington.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Not and a half, and in college football you get
lines twenty six, thirty five, thirty eight. And the difference
is is that people do not believe it. Well, sorry,
in the NFL, people believe that that that any week
the best team in the league can lose to the
worst team in the league.
Speaker 4 (32:50):
And they don't feel that in college and that has
been the case and we hear you, but that's been
the case for centuries.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
So I just don't see that changing. All right, George,
we want to have to get three four, five things,
but that it didn't happen. Appreciate you, thank you, and
officially George wrong star on this one.
Speaker 6 (33:05):
Hey, hey, hey y'all, can y'all can be to get
off my we are and.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
You know what, Tell your kid to give it an
il money back, all right, I want you to give
you Tell your kid to give it to Iowa State.
Whatever you tell your kid to, George, tell your kid
to give them money to some.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
If you don't get off phone, GEORGI Domas, all right
by predict the future. Thank you, George, George, Reister Georgeia

Is that when I'm blending there, funny even number, figure
it out.
Speaker 6 (34:27):
Run me out.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
I'm running a long time with George Rongster aka George Reister.
Took our time, Let's get to it. So I had
to do on the show today, Rob, I had to
have We had some professional volleyball players on, and of
course they throw me out there in the net and
your boy was pretty good, and the whole crew said,
I didn't think you're gonna be that good.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
I said, yo, I'm pretty proficient at everything. Monty. I'm
posting on Graham. You'll see it. A man, don't make
that face.
Speaker 4 (34:46):
So my question is this, there are certain things that
I feel you should be able to do, not at
the level of a pro, but you should be solid
at the set things. Here we go the list. I
feel everybody should be able to be decent. That's swinging
it back. You ain't got to be Aaron Judge the show. Hey,
swinging it back. You should be able to you know,
all right, I'm not not to embarrass yourself throw a football.
(35:08):
You should be You ain't got to be Pat Mahomes,
shut up, Rob, But you should be able to throw
football Pat Mahomes three years ago.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Make him feel better. You should be able to shoot
a basketball.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
You ain't gotta be Stephan ray Island or Reggie Miller
Larry Bird, but dang it, you gotta be able to
shoot a basket, So all right, not embarrass yourself. Kick
a soccer ball. You shouldn't whi and then fall in
your backside. Hey, just I kicked the ball. You don't again,
you ain't got to be Pele's brother. And lastly, and
I've seen you do this, you gotta be able to
bowl a little bit decently. You gotta be able to
throw it down again, not embarrassing shop, not saying again
(35:40):
you got to be Chris Paul or since he said, well,
they say he's the greatest Messi and Vernaldo.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
But I'm saying that was interesting. Listen, listen, you can't
use all those God no, he's a younger guy. Okay,
you fix someone else. I shocked.
Speaker 4 (35:57):
All right, So here we go, run a short on time.
Anybody want to go give me the one that you
you feel as if. All right, if you can't do that,
that's just embarrassing bowling. You least throw a ball, you know,
roll the ball down there, kick a soccer ball, shoot
a basketball, throw a football, swing a back, if there's
the one that has to.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Go there, like all right, if you can't do that,
that's just come on bro to me. It's swing a bat.
Oh I'm eliminating one, right, I'm saying. No, that's good.
You're saying if you can't swing a bat.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Yeah, I wish you would have had to throw a
ball in there instead of swinging a bat. No, I'm
gonna say about the throw winners for the kick kick
a soccer ball. You gotta be able to kick a ball,
just a stationary ball kicking.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
If you can't kick, you all right, Alex Rob g Manzi, Yeah,
I guess something with Rob on this swing with the ball,
like I feel like bullying. You know, it's a little
bit harder to make it go straight and all that
good stuff. Yeah, you have to be able to kick
(36:58):
good contact, good contact.
Speaker 7 (37:01):
Okay, okay, yeah, this is easy. This segment's gotta go.
I thought this one's gotta go, But this is one
you gotta do.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
No, you're not listening. I am listening. I'm confused. What
is the one that has to go to? You say?
If you can't do that, Like, okay, you gotta go,
can't you got?
Speaker 9 (37:16):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (37:16):
If you can't do this, you've got exactly like that? Better,
that's it? Okay.
Speaker 7 (37:20):
After watching Rob Parker's immaculate swing at his softball games
and he almost hit it out of the park, I
wish you'd put running the bases.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Wait, so you can't run?
Speaker 6 (37:31):
Is that what we got?
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Did he compliment you? That didn't miss you? I was
the speed store on them, Rob, ge, hurry up, we're
running low?
Speaker 6 (37:38):
What you got?
Speaker 2 (37:38):
This was easy?
Speaker 5 (37:39):
There's only one of these that gives you an actual assistance,
and that is bowling, because they will put the little
guttered things up to make sure you can throw it straight.
And if you can't get a strike doing that, then
just leave the bowling out.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
All right? Mine is shoot a basketball?
Speaker 4 (37:54):
Nobody say you gotta be pur but if you just
and then you airball or can you just completely wait
out to me like all right, you gotta have a
you gotta look throw it up there? Mine is that one?
Shoot a basketball? Nobody asked you to be Larry Bird's nephew.
