Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Happy Pie Day, Fox
Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show Jason my Carmon live
from the Geico Studios, where fifteen minutes can save you
fifteen percent and more in car insurance. For more information,
please contact Geico dot com because maybe they could get
you a pie. You and I went to two stores

(00:22):
before the show tonight to get pie. If he came
in and said we need pie, I said, absolutely, it's
Pie Day. No pie at either store that you would
expect to have pie. How does Whole Foods not have pie,
even like a healthy pie? I gotta say it really
was a disappointment. I thought it would be a nice
bonding experience for the crew here on Pie Day, that
we would have a nice apple or maybe a blueberry,

(00:45):
or at least a nice experience for you and I
eating it in here. Well, I don't know. It might
be quick to throw an elbow up, and someone tried
to bow guard some of my pie. We got too
many year olds were like, no, I'll only have pie
if it's got keen wat in it, because oh that's
the pie. I not on that. Yeah, you watch that
rising up the charts. Now we're playing on the family feude,

(01:05):
and I pulled a bunch of eighteen to thirty year olds.
You're telling me Keen was one of the answers on
the board. You watch how many millennials come down with
all kinds of crazy stuff and grow two heads and
and five hands because they eat all this crazy stuff
they think is healthy. That's in foods right now? Watch
what do you got cold nedphones? You know how many
pies I've bought in with my tax return? I just
like that you said bought, Yeah, I got tied up.

(01:26):
That means that tax returns that very robust when you're
using hundred and thirty eight dollars last year. Wait where
where'd you? Where'd you go to school? So I can
cross it off list for Zoe because obviously they don't
teach good stuff. So very good, right that down? Boughton, Boughton,
b O U G H D E N bought Dang.

(01:47):
You've passed, You've passed. Congratulations, here's your sheep skin, Boughton.
I demand that Rachel Maddow make LaVar All reveal his
tax returns. I demanded, I absolutely demanded. His sons are
drive around hundred thousand dollar cars in Los Angeles, as

(02:08):
he said in USA Today interview yesterday, I demand we
get his tax returns. We wonder what they're gonna show us.
Not enough to warrant a bunch of hundred thousand dollar cars.
Maybe they're they're loaned loaners from friends, supporters. I don't
want to say boosters, because now we start getting into

(02:29):
a whole world of a tricky web around the you know,
student athlete and all that comes along with a student
part of it. First four right now on True TV,
Kansas State and Wake Forest, ten minutes to go in
the second half. Kansas State with a three point lead
over the Demon Deacon's earlier amount. St. Mary's wins by
a point. They move on to face Villanova. Will have

(02:51):
more on the n c A tournament coming up in
about fifteen and it's including a prop bet you can't believe.
But if we did tonight on the radio what Rachel
Maddow did on television on MSNBC, we'd be fired, wrapped
on the wrist a few times, and we'd get a

(03:12):
talking to from the Bob's hap what happened tonight? And
this is this is not going to get This is
not about politics. This is about television. This is not about.
This is not about You're not gonna hear a ten
minute rant on tax return. No, No, this is about
we can talk about effective tax rates. And what you're
doing right now is you're starting to file your return
and all the stuff that Frostburg bought in with his

(03:33):
money there and I spent my afternoon going through my
documents starting to assemble those for for the preparers. So
you know, effective tax rates and stuff or something I'm
certainly concerned about, but I think it would put most
people to sleep and they'd want to throw pens at me.
But let me give you the nuts and bolts before
you get into just why. I know we do things
better at Fox Sports Radio and and for years than

(03:56):
what happened on MSNBC tonight. Rachel Maddow to eats out
earlier today and she's been a talk show host on
MSNBC for a long time, very popular. We have Trump's
tax returns. Seriously, tonight at nine pm, the entire world
stopped President Trump's tax returns. We're gonna find out what
was the biggest lingering question, controversy, conspiracy from the election.

(04:19):
Why won't Donald Trump reveal his tax returns? What is
he hiding? And she tweets out, we have tax returns
tonight at nine o'clock. And what happens? She starts the
show with a fifteen and listen list with Rachel Maddow does.
She starts to show with the fifteen minute diet tribe
on why tax returns are important, so number one, she
completely buries the lead. Instead of saying, hey, we got

(04:39):
Trump's tax returns because this is everything we've been talking
about for months now, fifteen minutes on why tax returns
are important. She comes back from break and says, well,
coming coming up next, I'll show you the tax returns. Okay,
all right, I'm listening to this all the way in
in the car. Now. Everybody else I know around me
is listening to it. And that's one of those moments
where you're like, ow, I'm you know, listening on satellite.

(05:01):
By the way, we're on channel eighty three. When you
hear people with their windows rolled down listening the same
thing you are, you know what what a big night
this was? Yet I was listening to hair metal and
the death metal along the way. That's my normal night.
But I I went with with that part tonight So
I'm listening and she's just fifteen minutes without saying what
she has. Okay, that's every journalism teacher in America is

(05:23):
going to start with a you buried the lead tomorrow
in class, trust me, and tomorrow's journalism classes in syracuson
Northwestern do not bury the lead. That's but but this
is where I'm gonna say they did exactly what they
should have, all right, But this is building momentum. I'm like, okay,
I'm expecting her to come back from commercial and say
Trump ordered the code rent on Santiago and he's dying

(05:44):
to tell us he's died. I think he wants to
tell us. I think he's tired that he's gotta hide
from me, especially in my Northwestern uniform. Sorry. So she
comes back from commercial break and says, here they are.
She holds him up. We have two pages of Donald
Trump's two thousand and five tax returns, and this is
how she explains the information that we've all been waiting

(06:06):
to find out. What we have are these two pages
front and back from the same ten forty form that
you might have filled out when you file your taxes.
Um and in terms of what's on here. Let me
give you the basics. Aside from the numbers being large, Uh,
these pages are straightforward. We got these pages. We got
this document today from a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist

(06:29):
is better on financial matters than almost anybody else in
the business. His name is David K. Johnston. These pages
turned up the other day in his mailbox. David will
join us live here in just a moment. And so
she says what they are is Donald Trump made a
hundred and fifty million dollars and he paid five million
dollars in taxes and then thirty one million dollars in

(06:50):
alternate taxes. And then welcome to the guest in and
here's David K. Johnson, the guy that did all the
legwork and got Trump's taxes. Are you kidding me? Fifteen
minutes on why it's important? And then you just give
me thirty seconds on what this is? And then here's
a guest. Well, it's a big number. I mean really,

(07:12):
I mean we can't spend fifteen minutes you and I
talking about the n c A tournament and talking about
all the teams in Kansas and North Carolina and Duke
and and and first round all this stuff and then
when we say, okay, coming up next, we'll give you
our final four picks, and then we come back. And
that's like me saying, okay, so we talked about the tournament.
Here's my final four picks. Oregon, Arizona, Duke, and U

(07:34):
C l A. Now let's welcome in to us talking
about it. We have Jerry Palman, CBS Sports Basketball, and
people are gonna go, do you have nothing to say? Really?
Do you have anything? You have any analysis? You can't
break this down for me in a way that I
can understand it, because this is you're talking about tax
returns and people needed to be broken down very simply
for you, certain things need to be broken down. I

(07:56):
can't just say, oh, I think Oregon is gonna get there.
Why we do talk for a living, whether it's sports
talk or general talk. You have to give opinions and
reasoning why. It's like you said me, Jason, you like Oregon? Yeah,
why I do. But their multicolored uniform, yeah, it be
funnels opponents and leaves them on their back. Heel floor

(08:18):
looks good. You have to You don't know whether it's
raised or not when you look at it. It's that
kind of thing, and the one thing that definitely needs
to be Even if you're not gonna go into a
long diet trium on tax code and you're just gonna
read the numbers, you've gotta at least explain the alternative
minimum tax. Right, people don't know what that but something

(08:41):
so but so people can understand it. And she does it,
and she goes right to a guest who starts talking
about how we got the tax returns, and I'm going,
are you kidding me? That's it. You're not gonna explain
to me how big a deal this is. Is Look,
because everybody wants to know did Donald Trump? Did he
pay enough taxes? Who were his business dealings with? Is
he gonna make tax changes that are going to help

(09:02):
him and his rich friends. That's what everybody wants to
know about the taxes, and that's we knew coming in.
And then she has this reveal that basically tells us, well,
he paid the taxes he was supposed to pay. He
used a loophole to do it, but he did it
so it was legal. And the questions are who is
he in business with? And is these is this an

(09:24):
indication of that he's gonna change taxes to benefit rich people.
So the same questions we knew going in we had
coming out of this. She had nothing. She had the
tax returns. I can't. It's you know, if I got
on Twitter today and I said, coming up on tonight's show,
NFL superstars busted for ped usage? Superstars, We are not kidding.

(09:45):
We have it at eight o'clock and people are waiting
that Jason Smith show is gonna have NFL stars? Who
is it? Who is? And then I come up and
I come on the radio with you, and I said,
you know, we have right here, and I show you
two pieces of paper and I go, here's a list
shows you that twenty NFL players were busted for p
D usage. Twenty of them. Joining us now to talk

(10:07):
about it is Jason Cole, who's as an insider for
bleacher Report NFL insider. Oh oh the names. Oh no, no,
we don't have the names. I just you know, there's
twenty people and that's a very big deal. And we're
gonna talk about this now for the next forty minutes.
How much cash do we lose with the audience if
that's what it is? Really you? You you baited me
all day with Trump's tax returns. You baited me all

(10:28):
day with hey, I know everything about pe d usually.
I know what happened allegedly between Lebron James, Dalante West
and Gloria James. I know all. I'm gonna have it,
and then I give you something. Well, yeah, here's piece
of paper that says that something happened. I as much
as people who tuned in for the beginning of the
show to hear this, we would lose those listeners forever.

(10:50):
Whatever would go, what are you doing a difference in
radio and television, But you can. You gotta have if
you're gonna deliver something. If you're gonna tease something and
say we have something big, you have to deliver on it.
But you do youin those quarter hours. People aren't turning
away because if they can't get it on Twitter and
they can't get it somewhere else. But that's a short
term gain, she gains. We would gain the listeners we

(11:12):
would have at the beginning of the show, but then
we would ruin it for anybody. People go, I'm not
listen to Jason Smith again. They had they I waited
all day to hear that. I am never listened to
that guy again. Well, the problem that is when you
say you've got the tax returns, what they had were
the first two pages, so there's no detail. This is
just the nuts and balls everything, and and it's no
it's a good sales tactic, and certainly for today it

(11:37):
it just bears more explanation of the ten forty and
all the different things when you start getting into corporations
and trusts and it gets long and complicated. There's so
many millions of people that filed the ten forty easy
that have no idea what any of this means and
never will. So to try to explain it just as
all right, here's the base numbers, it doesn't help. Like

(11:59):
you've got to get deeper, at least in the into
the initial part of the code to say, all right,
here's how you structure attack tax return when you have
all and and bring in a guest you explain that
if you can't do it, but that that can't just
be the the summary. But either way, they still won
the the quarter hours and it's a very captive audience
for today. But how many people leave unsatisfied? That's gonna

(12:22):
be because the blowback from this would be truill be
tremendous from what did she really have? She had nothing.
I can't every time I say, coming up next, when
we have something that is absolutely unbelievable, to listen, you
want to hear this. I can't say every single time,
you absolutely have to hear this piece of audio because
if it's something that is underwhelming, or if it's something

(12:43):
that we need to explain, then you I can't do
that because the audience is smarter than you think they are.
They're gonna go. You just this is just someone who
says things to say things, and they tease things coming
up that aren't really great, Like it's a local news
tease coming up while your children could be dead tomorrow,
and it's like, really, you know, if they wind up
under this gas of nuclear explosion, if it happens at

(13:04):
some point, you know, I mean, we can't do anything
like that. We can't do that. And and that's what
you risk here and everywhere is that for a short
term gain, you lose a lot of cash at you
lose a lot of it. Time bow on it real quick.
David Johnson, the man who had these two pages delivered
to him, said it was quote possible that Trump himself
had set the documents with the history of leaking materials

(13:26):
to journalists, and Johnson continued for there, what was the
first thing I said to you guys when I pumped
into this year I met you Trump leaked the tax returns.
I mean, really, this was overblown and you have to
know better because the numbers number ends up being a
lot bigger than anybody anticipated. They don't get the answers
of the other questions, but you saw a big tax numbers.
But this will be the talking point for the next
twenty four hours. Twitter at how about a fresco The

(13:48):
Jason Smith showed Jason Mike Harmon live from the Geico Studios.
Coming up next, something very special as it pertains to
the n c A tournament going on tonight and a
prop bet for the tourney in Vegas. I want to
go lay a hundred bucks on that's next on Fox
Fox Sports Radio That Jason Smith Show, Jason Mike Harmon,

(14:11):
We are live from the Geico Studios. Four minutes to
go on True TV, Kansas State with a seventy seventy
lead over Wake Forest again closing in on four minutes ago.
Earlier tonight, Mount St. Mary's wins by a point. They
move on to face Villa Nova in the Thursday game

(14:35):
in the first round. Since now we have to have
titles for every single round, we'll have more on tonight
because this is now True TVs Week. When you're trying
to find games True TV. The one week True TV
is really relevant during the year is when okay, it's
the first week of the n State Tournament games and
games are on True TV. Both games tonight are on
True TV. But before we get to that, did you oh,

(15:00):
and this is where I want to go to Vegas
and I want to get a hundred dollars because I
want to put a hundred bucks on this. A sports
book has created a Grayson Alan prop bet for the
n c A Tournament. Sports betting dime dot Com have
set the odds that Grayson Allen is called for a
technical foul during the n c A Tournament at nine

(15:22):
to one. Pretty good return. That's not bad. But here's
the big one. This is what I want to bet on.
The odds that he kicks or trips an opponent in
the tournament. Cats kicking or tripping, He's not punching anybody.
We need a kicking or tripping sound effect. That's pretty tough.
You have to make one up then tight shirt like whoop.

(15:42):
You know, couldn't go through back through an NFL game
pass and find where there was a tripping penalty called.
You couldn't find someone saying a trip on Grayson ality,
How I'm gona go with a punching sound effect? Yeah,
that sounds similar to me. I thought he just get
maybe maybe when Derek Carr was tripped and he broke, okay,
the odds that he will trip somebody or kick somebody
in the turn nament forty nine to one. Who's deciding

(16:04):
whether it's an official? Yeah? But who's deciding what that is?
Because are we talking about intent? Because that's where we
always get into this area with Grace and Allen. Is
an intentional I would assume would have to be called.
It couldn't be a kick or a trip that was
missed by It would have to be a call a
kick or a trip, which I mean they're not gonna miss.
It's Grace and now they're not gonna miss those calls.
But one duke could play six games, He's gonna trip

(16:27):
somebody in those six games thirty minutes. I would easily. Yeah. Wait,
your brother is gonna be in Vegas. If I don't
think you can get this in Vegas, why why can't
I I'm curious as to wear sports betting dime. He's
got to get it in Vegas. I mean, it's if
it's not in Vegas, it's got to be somewhere. No. No,
But that's my point is this might be one where
you have to enter your credit card for some offshore account.

(16:49):
Oh really, it's not that easy. If you can find it,
I will give you a hundred dollars to to bring
to him in Vegas to put on that one. It's
the easiest forty herd bucks will ever make. I'm gonna
scissor kick you in the back of the head. There
is that too, Oh that's easy, easy money. There is
a link to responsible gambling on their site, so that helps.

educate everybody and play the True TV show, not a
show game. That's what we're gonna do it. Right now,
here we go. There's our ubiquitous game show music playing
tonight's game along with you, Mike Harmony, Golden Headphones, justin Frostburg,
and award winning Update anchor Guys TV. Al Right, here

(18:18):
we all. I'm the guy. You should be an expert
at this. Then. I love the carbonaro effect. Very funny.
Welcome back. By the way, I am going to give
you a show and you simply have to tell me
if that is a real True TV television show or
something that's completely made up. Here we go hair Jacked,
a show about very controversial and stealing bunnies. Unique hairstyle.

(18:43):
Hairstyle hair Jacked. I thought you were going to start
with Kansas State wake Forest. That's the easy one. Jack
hair Jacked, I don't think that's a show. It's got
to be a show, right, That is a showy eavy
hair Jacked is a show. Better watch closer next time

(19:06):
before after Forensic Files, I'll tell you that lingerie swap.
Women trade lingerie and model and it chosen for their
significant others. Lingerie swap. That sounds like that down the
street here, we could probably get green lit pretty fast.
But it is not currently a show. What time does
it air? Allegedly Thursdays at ten o'clock and it's being

(19:27):
bumped for the games. It's too early. Not a show,
is it? Between the diabetes infomercial I'm Wilfred Brimley and
the one that wants you to buy grain and stuff
to store under your house for when the apocalypse happens.
Down the street at Romantics, we can just buy that stuff.
And no, that is not a show. That is not
a True TV show. Very good unclothed comedians, scantily clad

(19:51):
comedians do stand up. True TV has made a big
push now towards entertainment programming. Unclothed comedians, scantily clad comedians
do stand up. The show on tru TV. No, hell no,
I'm saying it is. That is not a show on
tru TV. Someone had to have the guts to step out. Strip.

(20:12):
Stand up comedians compete for laughs and if you don't
get them, you lose articles of clothing. Strip you should
screen patent pending. This one's pretty good, you know. That's
the thing loony. When I was making some of these
up today, not that this one's one of the made
up ones. When I was making them up today, I'm like,
this can actually really be a show. And I just
came up with it like three minutes. Yeah, if it

(20:32):
was on Cinemax, well maybe it's either way. No, no,
it didn't have to be in Cinemax. Crew TV is okay,
it's not. It's cable TV TV. Can I swear on
the Family Channel? If you want strip, stand up comedians
compete for laughs and if you don't get them, you lose.
I'll go with that. I like it. I wanted to
be a show that's unfortunately is not a I needed

(20:54):
to be a show. I know my truth. Now, if
you would have said Nancy Gray stripping, I would have said, oh,
I gotta write that. That guy should fry World's Wildest
vacation videos. Is that a show that sounds very That's
a good conversation, Okay, Frostbert. That is a true TV show, cheap,

(21:15):
cheap programming, absolutely psychic detectives. Yes, yes, yeah, that comes
on after the first forty year where the tech to
Texas is from upstate New York. He's not all the time,
he's very good. That is a show. Yeah, Texas toastmaking
a show about Texas cuisine. I like it, but no
Texas toastmaking. Yeah, Texas is known for barbecue, not toast.

(21:37):
Toast is only cuisine and Irish households. No, ready, you
know Texas toast is a thing. Yeah, it's a big
Texas toastmaking. So not a show. That is not a show.
Death Date a show that explores specific dates and the
famous people who died on that day. Death Date? Is
death Date a show? Death? No, that's not a show.

(22:01):
But like it. Yes, we need to come up with
seed Cat. We could do a lot of damage because
the other day it was who died the other day
Pete did he? And it was George also George Burns
on the same day it was it was actually big
he's the one who concerts to commemorate the passing of

(22:21):
his friend. Alright, you're fake news, Tom Loony, very white,
he died. It's very white moment. Moment, great moments, bad
moments in Caucasian history right there? All right? Well for
any are any update anchor right there? They may make
sure you hit refreshing the computer when you give the
score of Kansas State. Uh, all right, So there it is.

(22:43):
There is the first round of the True TV Shows
not a show game. We'll do that again coming up
later on in the show. Don't do it at ten thirty.
I gotta get out of here. Throw that up on
the national airways. I'll think about that when I'm planning
it out and and learn more about Thank you, Mr Loning.
Coming up in one minute, we'll check in with one

(23:04):
of our college basketball insiders and see if he agrees
with my bold prediction about the n c A Tournament.
From a night ago, Box Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show,
Jason Mike Harmon Live from the Guy Goes Studios called
nine four seven Auto find out how much you can
save on auto insurance, hopefully learn a lot about True TV.
In the last few minutes. Right, there's a lot of
promotion right there. I mean, I think the wide range

(23:27):
of program Death Date would be a hell of a show.
It wouldn't cost any money cause it's a clip show.
Unclothed comedians would be a great one. By death Death Day,
I'm doing that online. Yeah, I like. I like the
comedians who get last. They don't get last, they take
their clothes off. That's kind of cool. I mean, these
are all ideas I come up with him, Like thirty seconds,
I you know what, I'm gonna go down in the world.

(23:49):
People are gonna go He was the most underused guy
in the world. The ideas he had in thirty seconds
that would take some television station six months to come
up with. I really I am an untapped resource. To
Mike Carmen, well, we need to worry about making money
for ourselves and maybe with some insights onto the n
C Double A Tournament, we can make money for others.
Speaking in that, let's welcome in. Tracy Murray twelve years

(24:11):
in the NBA u c L, a legend Bruins radio
analysts alongside the incomparable Josh Lewin, who now is getting
ready for New York Mets duty. You can follow Tracy
on Twitter at real Tracy Murray. That is at real
Tracy Murray. Tracy, what's happening? Man? Oh, I'm good, Thanks
for having me on. Hey, you got it. Look, I
want to hit you out of the gate with this

(24:31):
right away, because you know we we did a lot
of this last night and there's a lot of reaction
to it. When I picked my final four before the
tournament began, I said, if Oregon, U, C, l A,
and Arizona are in different brackets, I'm picking all of
them to get to the final four. It happened. I
had to stick with my word. Look, I know in
Oregon's got injury concerns, but I feel great about all
three of these teams. You've gotten to see them a

(24:53):
lot this season. What do you think? I think Arizona
has the easiest track to the final four and then Oregon.
But Oregon's got the injury problem. But we gotta we
gotta tough roll ahead. I mean kent State, you know
that's the first round matchup, that's no picnic. You get
past that, you have Cincinnati, who's playing well, that's no picnic.

(25:15):
You get past that. It's a rematch with Kentucky and
you know they got what's on their mind. They got
revenge on their mind, and then after that it's un
se So, I mean, we have the roughest road in
that South region. Now when you you go to we
we're talking about the u c. L A Bruins, uh,
and we watched them obviously a lot here from the
Geico studios, Jason and I wondering, you know, it doesn't

(25:38):
help that you're talking about a lot of youth on
this team that they don't know what they don't know
in terms of this kind of bracket or doesn't matter
just talent wins out. I don't think it matters so
much because you know, there's so much youth that's just
there for one year and they're going to the next level.
So um, you can't even talk about youth and that's

(25:59):
for and all of that anymore because it really doesn't
make a difference. It's it's all about talent and coaching
at this point because, uh, you know that everybody's played
throughout the season, so they have experience. They don't have
experience in the in the in the n C double As.
But that's what the conference tournaments do. They set you
up and they get you ready for the double A tournament.

(26:21):
My only worry about u c l A is LaVar
Ball could say something between now and Friday that with
ruin Lonzo's eligibility, he's got off for the next couple
of days. I just try not to listen to what
he says, because you know, you guys are feeding into it,
and that's what's keeping it out there. So I just
started to keep quiet about it, and it just keep

(26:42):
my head down, do my job. Yeah, but that's gotta
make the job a lot easier. And during a blowout win, hey,
we're up twenty's. You know what, it's funny and it's
entertaining and it's good TV and radio for everybody. So
he's doing what he needs to do to build a brand,
and and every bobby's buying into us, so he's doing
his job. I can't believe he's not coming to the

(27:03):
games until they get to the final four. I mean,
I get that he wants to go. Look, I know
le Angelo is going for a state title and that's
a big deal, but I mean, this is the n C.
He's become a start. Now, we gotta see him in
the stands are doing something well, he can't be two
three different places at one time, so you know, and
there's I guess two trumps won you know, both of
the boys going for a state championship and and Lonzo.

(27:25):
He's hoping Lonzo can hold it down until he NBA Champion.
U c l a Brewing legend joining us on the
hotline Jason Smith Show, Fox Sports Radio from the Geico Studios.
You can follow Tracy on Twitter at real Tracy Murray.
And when you're looking at the field as a whole,
Tracy and what you followed the college basketball all across?

(27:47):
How deep is this field in terms of where a
champion comes from her Are we gonna be surprised or
is it the tried and true programs that finished trong.
There's not going to be a surprise in my opinion.
I don't think there's there's too many in the relatives
here in the past. I would say yes, but I
think the top teams have been so dominant that that

(28:08):
you know, Kansas, they're not gonna have any problems coming
out of the region. I don't think Villanova has got
I think they gotta have a Kike walk out of
the region. And I think Arizona is gonna have a
fight with Gonzaga, but you know, I think the same
Mary's game might might you know, push them a little bit,
but after that, I think they're fine. Once. I think
they're gonna get past Gonzaga because there are two guys

(28:29):
in treering in in Parker car right then played first game,
So I think they'll be fine with that one. But
I just think that the dominating team is the ones
that's been at the top all year. They've they've been
the consensus teams that that no one could beat. Who
do you have in your final fortress? I have, Uh,

(28:49):
I haven't really done a graph yet, but I'm thinking
I'm thinking Villanova I'm gonna come out of there as
I think, UH Can't is gonna come out of the airs,
um Arizona is gonna come out of theirs, and uh,
it's gonna be between u C. L A and North
Carolina to come out. And we haven't seen them yet

(29:11):
and and they're impressive with their size. I think, uh,
if we can push the pace, if we get that
far and we can push the pace against them and
control of the temple, I think we'll be okay. You
can follow my Twitter at real Tracy Murray U C.
L A broadcaster analysts alongside Josh Lew and Tracy appreciate
your time. We'll listen for you on the call on

(29:32):
Friday night of the opening night to the Final four. Well,
thanks for having me on and I'm looking forward to it.
Thanks Tracy Murray. There you guys, we'll be calling u
c l A Kent State the opening round game for
u c l A. It was very difficult to think
about putting all three of these teams in the Final four.
And I did it because look, it hasn't happened in
thirty years, right last time was five. I mean, it's

(29:54):
really just us trying to win the West Coast. I
think it's well know it is too and it's also
it's also wanting to spotlight. People don't know how good
these teams are. I mean, you hear a Lonzo ball,
but no one ever gets to see these teams because
people know they play late on on on Saturday nights,
they played late during the week. No one really gets

(30:15):
to see all of these teams. We get to see
all of them. You know, if you have direct TV
in there in a pack twelve, you can't even watch them.
But we get to see all of these teams, and
they are all fantastic. They beat up on each other
during the season, they win out of turn, out of conference.
These are all three really scary good teams. And yes,

(30:35):
Oregon was the toughest pick for me, but if I
thought they were good enough to do it, and if
you know, if it was Dylan Brooks that got hurt,
I would say, okay, well, I can't pick Oregon. That
that's it's it's a shame that they're saying, but it's
Dylon Brooks. And this is how important to guard plays.
And all three of these teams have guards, will control
the ball all the way through three pack twelve teams
in the final four. And Duke well with Oregon the

(30:56):
explosive guard scoring opportunity and the guard play. You know,
when you get that combination. Brooks is a guy that
if he catches fire early, can control a game. So
certainly there you get a little bit of love, you
get the national hate by by getting on the Duke
bandwagon to get them to the Final four. So it
really balances itself nicely for Derision at how about a

(31:17):
fresco as we celebrate for Jason the fact that Syracuse
didn't lose today. Game was postponed, so we'll see tomorrow.
You know, it's not I want to say this once
for everybody. It's not like we're an underdog in this game. Okay,
I'm get controlled by Fox Sports Radio dot Com. Syracuse
lives another day thanks to post pullman of game. Because
of Stella. We're a one seed in the n I
t I mean we could still lose, really chest for

(31:43):
number one seed, the team number one. I mean, I
I appreciate your excitement here in the Geico studios, but
that was a bit bit over the top. You want
to yell con at the end of that. While all right,
coming up next, we have to the stories in the NFL.
Do you want to talk about the short guy or
the fat guy. Let's start with the fat guy. All right,

(32:06):
we'll see if we get to the short fat he
is short, we'll go fat guy in the short guy. No,
not for this guy, fat and short, short and fat.
Coming up next, Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Radio, The
Jason Smith Show, Jason Mike Harmon. If you think of
train will stop if it sees your car on the tracks,
you're right at will about a mile after it hits

(32:26):
you stop because trains camp, we broadcast live from the
Getic studios and something we're gonna get into much more
in about ten minutes at halftime. Right now, the Golden
State Warriors at home trail the seventies sixers fifty nine.
Am I still trusting the Warriors process, t J still

(32:52):
trying to find themselves. Steph Curry with another subpar shooting night,
three of ted overall, one of five from three point range,
Derek Carr, Steph Curry's shot, how would you assess it? Oh? Yeah,
bad things going around. We had the Iguodala comments on
Friday night, and we had one of the big things

(33:12):
we did leading into the weekend, and that became a
big story as you would expect it to. And you're
just seeing the struggles to find their offense and find
that flow continuing once again against the low lea seventy
sixers again fifty nine, fifty eight. Hey, hey, Bobby Knight,
how would you feel about the Warriors if they lost
their fourth straight game? Wow? All right, that's very wow,

(33:35):
Bobby Knights kind of saying it like it is right there,
A blunt assessment of the matter, no question about so
I forget we had to talk about the short guy
or the fat guy? Right now? Well, kindred spirit, all right,
big boned, don't come to the quote fat gay. Uh
as we talk about this Eddie Lacey speaking of the
fat guy. How funny would that be if I said, no,

(33:57):
we have the fact up, but it's not Eddy Lacey.
I don't want to be. Please, don't let me be
a fat man. Eddie Lacey at t J he will
be in feast mode in Seattle. Can we get shirts
like that made already? Can we can we get those
shirts made quickly? Feast mode even if it's not related

(34:19):
to Seattle or Eddy Lazy, it's for fat guys everywhere.
Pete Carroll will put a sandwich every ten yards, hoping
to get Lacy to increase that yards per carry average.
Eddie Lacey has agreed to a one year contract with
the Seahawks for five point five five million, with three
million dollars of it fully guaranteed. Member Adrian Peterson went

(34:43):
to visit the Seattle Seahawks earlier this week, and now
it's Eddie Lacey is the guy that the Seahawks go
out and get. Lacey took his visit at not one
hundred pounds, not two hundred pounds, not two hundred and
thirty pounds, not two hundred forty pounds, not two hundred
and fifty pounds, not two hundred and sixty pounds. But

(35:06):
he weighed in at two hundred and sixty seven pounds.
Seahawks said they'd like to get him down to about
two forty for the start of the season. But here's
the thing. Number One, the most the happiest people in
Seattle right now is anybody who owns a restaurant because
they're all thinking all the money we're gonna make. Oh
my god, we're just getting it all. We're gonna get

(35:29):
Eddy Lazy to come in here and come in here
with his friends. Oh I got We're gonna make so
much cash. Why why do we gotta mock the guy?
He's a running back. You can't run the football in
the NFL at two sixty seven. Now, he might not
be able to keep his hamstrings healthy and some of
the other injuries that he's had along the way. But
back to the matter is I don't I don't think
all of that's attributed to just his weight. Well, a

(35:51):
lot of it is when you can't stay healthy. Look,
going back to the beginning, Eddie Lacey has never taken
care of his weight. When you are an NFL player
and you can't take care of your weight when there
are people around you, when you are in first round
draft pick seven to go, we need to take care
of you make and you still can't control your weight
and it's allowed to balloon out of control. Look, he's

(36:11):
got to be someone that needs somebody around because obviously
can't do it himself. And I get it. When you
like food, you like food. But when you're twenty five
years old, this is when you're supposed to be in
the best shape of your life. And all Eddie Lacey
has done is keep eating and get more injury prone.
Seattle is gonna have Eddie Lacey for how long? Three weeks?
I mean, really, why they why signed the guy? It's
like taking five and a half million dollars and throwing

(36:31):
it away, your three million guaranteed and throwing it away
because all you're gonna have to do is replace him
at some point because he's gonna get hurt because he
can't stay thin enough to be able to be healthy
enough down to be fair, They're not looking at him
to come in and be a carry a game back
three man rotation, whether that's Rawls, Procise and Lazy, they're

(36:52):
still talking to Jamal Charles. They're also not expecting to
come in and play defensive tackle, which may be a
better position for him. See, I think you're just doing shaming.
I think you've gone over the top. I've not over
the top. Eddie Lacey could be great. He could be
one of those bowling ball type running backs. But he can't.
And it's money that the Seahawks decided we're gonna throw out. No,

(37:12):
he's not gonna carry the ball twenty times a game.
But when a guy like Eddie Lacy is most effective
is when a guy like that is pouting the defense
for twenty carries a game. When you have a big
running back that eventually defenses get tired of tackling and
suddenly those big tackles turned into shoulder tackles and turn
into arm tackles, and Lacey is wearing down the defense.
It's what he's done. But he's not gonna get the carries.
He's not gonna stay healthy. So what was this really

(37:33):
all about? You know, Rawles is still gonna get You
got a bunch of You got a lot of talent,
you got a lot of guys that can't stay on
the field. Again, it's it's this the NFL. I can't
get over the infatuation with he is such a talent,
but you've got to realize the reality is these guys
can't stay on the field, whether it's Lazy or Tony
Romo somebody else. Well, that's why as we sit here
in the Geico studios watching the night's action in the

(37:55):
NBA and NHL and thinking about Eddie Lazy, that the
running backs came off the board last in terms of
the the hierarchy of free agency signings, and this is
a minimal deal. They're looking for minimal contribution and had
what they want and maybe a goal line situation. Maybe
they can lean them out a little bit. We'll see.
But certainly I'm not gonna be among those to fat

(38:15):
shaming you. Wow, I'm look, I'm being a realisting hate.
Let's help everybody out of here. No, I'm saving everybody
a lot of cash, time and anguish. I don't think
i'd make fun of him the way you did, though,
I mean, I thought that was a little bit cruel.
What does it mean when Geico says just fifteen minutes
can save you fifteen percent more in car insurance. It
means you should have gone a Geico dot Com fifteen

(38:37):
minutes ago. I'll win the Lombardi Trophy and hold it
up and say it was all because of me. Just
don't throw at the one coming up next, the biggest
story of the night, Fox Green Eggs. Welcome inside our
two of the show, Jason Mike Harmon from the Geico Studios,
where fifteen minutes can save you fifteen percent and more
in car insurance. More info visit Geico dot com right now.

(38:57):
Early in the third quarter, the Philing. If he has
seventy sixers lead the Golden State Warriors at the Oracle
sixty three to sixty two, and it doesn't matter if
the Warriors go on to win this game, maybe Steve
Kerr is gonna decide, Oh, I have to bench the
rest of my stars for the second half because I
really don't want them to lose confidence by losing to

(39:18):
the Philadelphia seventy sixers. Doesn't matter. The Warriors are a mess.
We've said it for a while. It's gonna blow up.
When it blows up, Draymond Green's gonna have his hand
on the t NT button like Wiley Coyote. But this
is where you're at now. Six out of the last
twelve they've lost. They have not played well without Kevin duranp.
We talked about going to this part of the schedule

(39:40):
and the confidence that the Warriors lack right now. We
talked about this a lot on Friday, which falls into
the category of Hey, today's takes the night before or
in this case, Monday's take on Friday night, which go
back and listen on iTunes podcast the whole show. You'll
hear a lot of things that sound vaguely familiar running

(40:00):
through the themes of your sporting experience. Yeah, don't forget iTunes.
After the show is when the podcast goes up. You
can get it and listened to any part of the
show you want to. Whatever you miss, go right to iTunes.
Jayson Smith show is there and a lot of things
that here on the show you here during the day
and a lot of other radio stations and television shows
things very similar to exactly how we say it on shows.

(40:23):
The next day, Well, Steph Curry just had another turnover.
Did not look confident. Uh, Philadelphia Now with a two
point lead, they can make it for and uh, this
is really where if you're the Warriors think you start
calling every single time out and go, hey, what's happening.
What's going on here? Is Steve Kurt buying clipboards in bulk?
Now that's the question breaking them and listen, I'd like

(40:44):
these clipboards pre broken before the game. Yeah, they get
the deflator just Tremski is doing it for him. But no.
But this is the problem and what we've heard for
a long time the Warriors locker room, what is going
on inside the team is full. This is not about outside.
This is not about everybody ganging up on the Warriors.
This is about them trying to figure out how to

(41:06):
deal with being the hunted and being the bad guys,
being the hunted and now with their first real sense
of adversity since Game four of the NBA Finals last year,
look at where they are. Steph Curry can't buy a
three in his last seven games. System QB Oh, what
did I tell you? This is how it is. The
Warriors have had adversity twice in the last two and

(41:28):
a half years, which shows you how dominant they've been.
Draymond Green getting thrown out or getting up the getting
assessed the foul that gets some suspended for Game five
of the NBA Finals. Last year, they lose three in
a row and lose the NBA Championship. The next bit
of adversity losing Kevin Durant awlbe it. That's a very
big deal. But still, this is the Warriors without Kevin Durant.

(41:49):
This team won seventy three games last year. How many
of they winning now? I mean, really, they're all of
a sudden, They're they're struggling against teams they have no
business struggling against. We told you this is what's going
to happen. Nothing Gold can stay. The Heat had trouble
their first year with Lebron when they tried to incorporate
him Lebron and they got to the finals, but they lost.
This is where things are. The Warriors are mentally fragile,

(42:12):
and this is why they're having trouble. All their problems
are in their locker room and between their own ears.
Draymond Green today talked about they asked him about, Hey,
did you guys forfeit the game against the Spurs over
the weekend, and he said, oh, when the schedule allows
us to play back to back games, you know then
we'll be able to play him. Oh, I'm sorry, it's
illegal to play players and back to back games. Now,
that's what it is. You lost to a Spurs team

(42:33):
without Kauai Leonard, without LaMarcus Aldridge. You decided to rest
everybody in that game when you could have taken that game,
which is the most important game of the year, and
you decided, no, we're gonna punt on it. There are
so many problems right now in Golden State. And you
can tell me all things are great and things are
fine and we're happy and it's all good. Trust me,
things are bad. The next big point, since we told

(42:55):
you all about what's gonna happen so far, the next
big point you'll see is in six days from now,
Monday night, they go into Oklahoma City. That's gonna be
a big one. Russell Westbrook goes nuts for a triple
double even without Kevin Durant wins it. That's gonna be
the next Oh boy benchmark point. And they could lose
tonight to Philadelphia. Oh my goodness, but looking looking ahead,

(43:19):
looking ahead is is looking at Okay. Here's the Oklahoma
State game in a week Oklahoma State. Here's the Oklahoma
City at the state tournament. Here's the Oklahoma City game
in a week, and then after that the schedule gets
very difficult. You have two games against the Rockets in
a span of four days. You also have Memphis who's
beating you, and you have San Antonio. By the end
of that run, we're into April, and that's when you

(43:41):
could have lost the number one seed for good. After
that stretch of games at the end of the month,
which is very, very difficult, in the span of of
eight days, you have all of those games. That's the
next tipping point, losing that number one seed and now
having to worry about navigating the playoffs and beating Houston
and then beating San Antonio. That's the big thing about
finishing second in the Western Conference. I was supposed to

(44:02):
have a nice bounce back here after that night off
on Saturday. You look at the schedule. You got Philadelphia, Orlando, Milwaukee,
three game homestand with off days in between, and uh,
a broken effort once again. Offensively, We've seen the struggles
and as they went to time out as we're watching
here in the Geiko studio, another backcut, wide open, easy
layout to extend the lead. To six for Philadelphia and

(44:25):
quick time out on the floor Steph Curry last seven
games from three point range. They have not figured out
the spacing, having figured out that leadership role, he's making
costly turnovers and bad decisions. Uh, hand over fist and
right now they've got to figure out what the new
world order, what that new level of normalcyat is while

(44:49):
Kevin Durant's off, but it certainly doesn't seem to be
coming anytime soon. Fox Sports Radio the Jason Smith showed
live from the Geiko studios. Don't forget. You can stream
our show livery day on the I Heart Radio app.
Been good news. As we told a few moments ago.
You can download our podcast after the show on iTunes,
google Play and Stitcher. Go there, like it, subscribe it,

(45:10):
give it five stars. We will love you forever, I promise. Meanwhile,
earlier tonight, the world stopped for Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC.
She tweeted out, earlier today we have Donald Trump's tax returns. Seriously,
nine o'clock on the show, everybody stopped. What's been the
biggest story after the election. Why won't Donald Trump release

(45:32):
his tax returns? And she says we have him. Everybody,
what's going I'm listening to her show on the right.
In listening, go what is she gonna say? What bombshell
is she gonna have? And what do we find out?
She really didn't have anything. She had two pages of
Donald Trump's two thousand five tax returns, which basically says
that he paid the taxes he was supposed to. He

(45:54):
did it in an alternate way. But all the questions
we had going into tonight show we still have coming out.
It's not that Donald Trump didn't pay his taxes. Suddenly, Ah,
donald Trump didn't pay No, it's well, there there was
some speculation somehow that yeah, siphoned off to where it
was a zero tax was the But because how many

(46:15):
commercials do you see for our office? But what do
we what do we find out Trump paid his taxes
using a loophole? Let's find And now the big questions,
as we've always had, has been, you know, what kind
of business dealings does he have? What kind of business
dealings does he have in Russia? All of these things?
And is he going to create tax loopholes that are

(46:36):
gonna help him personally enrich people? That the questions we
had going in. We got none of that. We got
no solution of that from Rachel Maddows show tonight, none
of it. And we spent last hour on the show
talking about how we did that. At sports talk radio,
we'd be in our manager's office tomorrow going, what the
hell are you guys doing? Well? Unless I carried it
over to the next quarter hour, I'm gonna here, then

(46:56):
I'm gonna hero. Let's go on what it is every
ratings time. If I carry that audience over and they
come with me and they're jumping on my swollen shoulders
for another fifteen minutes, then I win. But listen, listen,
my man. Get the five minutes, my man. But here's
the thing. If you do that, you get a short
term gain of Okay, you had a lot of people
listening to the show, but then you have a lot
of people who say, I'm never gonna listen to you again,

(47:17):
and you disappointed me. Listeners are smarter than people who
consume television. Radio are smarter than you think. They would
never listen. They would go you promised a big story
and you didn't deliver. Watch the backlash for Rachel Mattow
tomorrow because she promised a big story and didn't really
deliver it. I'd rather her have just said, listen, this
is a big deal. It's the start of something. We

(47:40):
have obtained Donald Trump's tax returns. An investigative reporter David K.
Johnson got them, and it's the beginning. There's not a lot,
but this is what we know. And you know that's
what we That's what you call a proportionate tease, a
proportionate promotion. Hey, here's what we have coming up, Donald
Trump's tax returns from two thousand and five. The first
two pay people are are gonna watch, but now they're

(48:01):
gonna walk away going you just suckered me in, because
people would feel if I said, hey, I know we
I have the names of twenty NFL stars who are
taking p e d s. And then when it comes
time for me to actually talk about it, I go, yeah,
there's a list of twenty players. I don't have the names,
but there's twenty people on this list. The listeners want
to fight me if they saw me in the store,
they want to fight me. Are you kidding me? I

(48:23):
stayed listen to my radio for that long. You have
to deliver. We're gonna deliver oriented business in radio and
sports talk radio. We have to talk about stuff and
promise you and bring it. We can't delay it, you know,
I can't say we got a big story coming up,
and like she did tonight, spend the first twenty minutes
just saying why it's important for Donald Trump too reveal

(48:43):
his taxes, because that's what she did, and then twenty
minutes into it, comes out and says, yeah, uh, we
have the taxes and talks about it for thirty seconds.
I mean, I we can't do that. You got if
we have it, we gotta tell you. I can't come
out and say, hey, you know what I have. I
have the biggest train in the National Football League. You've
ever heard it, and then spend fifteen minutes talking about
all the different players it might be, and then say,

(49:03):
coming up next, I'll have it for you. But if
you're the only guy that, I don't think it does
because eventually you deliver you're holding back the news. You're
holding back the news. Still have the news, you're just
delivering it on your timeline. It's like when we had
the n C Double A Tournament bracket a year ago.
You paid a lot of money for those rights. We
discussed this coming this past week ahead of the the

(49:24):
tournament selection show. If you own the rights and you don't,
and you can trust it's not going off the back door,
which obviously CBS and everybody goodn't because somebody disgruntled decided
to give it over, then then why don't you try
to own that for as long as you can. I
I hear you on that, But when you have news,
nobody has time for that, now, everybody. You know what,

(49:46):
if it's that big deal, it'll make time, right, I'll
make time. But then you'll say, and if I come
back with another big thing the next time, you know,
I'm eventually good at. But if you don't give it
to me right away, and I look at it this way,
very smart guy, and radio said to this about delivering
on what you promised. He said, to me, listen, if
you say, let's like tell a little kid, hey, in
ten minutes, I got ice cream for you. You know

(50:07):
what's great is the kid usually forgets and the kid
comes back in ten minutes and said, yeah, my ice cream,
And I go, oh, yeah, no, it's not ice cream.
It's in eminem here. And you go, oh, that's not
what you promised me. You promised me ice cream. When
you promised ice cream, you gotta deliver ice cream and
say this one. You can't hold it back and say yeah,
I got ice cream for you in ten minutes ago.
It's not really ice cream. It's just one yellow eminem

(50:28):
that actually has the the coding, you know, knocked off
a quarter of it. Here you go have it. That's
the equivalent of what happened. But technically she gave the
tax returns, not the depth. Well. I also I am
waiting on the blowback and and input from legal scholars
as to what they did was legal or not, because
there's some question of whether that's should be subject and

(50:49):
there's been lawsuits about this during the course of the
election as to whether this should be released. Ergo my theory.
As I walked in the door tonight charged in. So
they linked it right, they linked it day and so
that's where it goes. But an explanation about how the
taxes are calculated and what you can infer just based
on those two pages should have been done, along with

(51:10):
the explanation of what AT ten forty is and how
deep and complicated the alternative minimum taxes when it comes
to businesses and trusts, et cetera, which is gonna take
several hours to explain, as opposed to a thirty second
synopsis and t J speaking of blowback, no Philadelphia freedom

(51:32):
for the Warriors. The Sixers have opened up a ten
point lead on Golden State with five and a half
minutes to go on the third quarter, time out Warriors.
The Sixers again leaded seventy seven to sixty seven. A
big night right now from Julil Okafre, who maybe he
wants to stay. He's got eighteen point six out of
ten from the floor. Meanwhile, Steph Curry tonight two out

(51:56):
of seven from three point range he has seventeen, Clay
Thompson twenty one. But the Warriors down ten midway through
the third. We'll have more in the Rachel Maddow story
because there's a big flip side to it coming up
later on this hour. But coming up next, could we
see some big time college basketball tournament games get postponed
this week? Him, you've got nothing to do about this,

(52:19):
We'll explain why and how with an insider not Tim Tebow.
Coming up next Fox Fox Sports Radio The Jason Smiths Show.
Making a twelve point lead for the Sixers over the
Warriors right now. Unforced errors, missed layups, multiple missed layups.

(52:41):
And then on the other side Steve Kerr looking like
he wants to go up and we'll do something from
one of the first four games earlier and go choke somebody.
Sean homes now with fourteen off the bench to go
along with five rebounds for the Sixers as they are
boat racing the Warriors. Is still a lot of time left,

(53:01):
but this could be happening. Meanwhile, n c A tournament,
we saw the first two first four games. Tonight, Kansas
State moves on, as does Mount St. Mary's. But could
we see a little bit of weather playing a factor
in the next couple of days. Because of winter Storm Stilla,

(53:23):
Syracuse had their game against North Carolina Greensboro postpones tonight
because of the snow. The Devil's had their game. NHL
game was postponed tonight. A lot of snow expected hit.
We got games in Buffalo, got games all over the place.
So joining us now to help us break this down.
Friend of the Show, the chief meteorologist at w i
t N in North Carolina. Friend of the Show, Matt

(53:43):
Angle Breck Metal. That's happening, gentlemen, I knew we were
in trouble when Golden State deficit is is more than
the amount of snow they got in Syracuse today. Yeah, yeah,
I was making for you to say there's a lot
of high pressure winds blowing through the oracle right now.
You could say that it wouldn't be meteor agically correct,
but you could say it sounded good though it isn't. Wait,

(54:05):
isn't that what? It is? High and anything. It's a
high pressure system, right, that's that's anything that's snow, it's rain, right, sure,
No high pressure is trying to make a forecast with
this northeaster. That's high pressure. Actual system is a low
pressure system. That's fine, all right? Well, but if I
put you outside, did you outlast Jim Cantori? Um? It depends.
It depends how many cases of beer? And do I

(54:28):
get a scarf? You know what? That's that's your sweeps
in November in a case of beer. How long you
can last doing the weather outside. We're in the business
of keeping people safe, but it's recommending that they stand
out there drinking beer right for you? Right? Right? That's true. Yeah,
I'm just saying, no, I don't do what I do

(54:49):
as as a perfect example, but actually it's speaking of which,
so I like to follow what's going on in the Northeast,
and you're you're in the Geico Sports studio right the
count as I mentioned, very good because there are some
people out in snowmobiles right now on the streets of Syracuse.
Walton Street. You know where Walton Street is? Oh? Yeah, yeah,

(55:09):
why I went. There's a bunch of great bars on
Walton Street. Yeah. So they postponed the game, they closed
down Syracuse. There are people out there. I just want
to make sure you weren't the one up there on
the snowmobiles. No, No, I would have been. If it was,
that would have been me. But those days are over
for me. Matt. I'll tell you what. He's trying to
get back to those days again. We keep trying to

(55:30):
encourage it. Now wait again, winning our own version of
sweeps here sport before we get into storm Stella. That
that tell me the truth that you're you're in Carolina.
How much is everybody in Carolina hate behind They called
us by surprise, But I think what really put it
over the top was the Twitter war between the two
especially Greensboro coming out, I mean the tournament town, Greensboro, Carolina.

(55:54):
That's where we're called. We have cops on segways in Greensboro,
and you're you're trying to tell it, so it's not
worth it to come down here. Come on now. So
what you're saying is I can. I can commit a
lot of crime there because I can run faster than
the guy in a segue can go. Well, it depends
there they charged, and I will, But I know the
cop is eventually gonna the sega is eventually gonna fall over.

(56:14):
I mean I'm gonna I'm gonna cut somewhere and he's
gonna fall and skin his knee. And so wait, now
you're a long distance runner. I'm just swelling no, no,
I'd be like Barry Sanders. I would run, I would
cut it a dime. I would turn and go the
other way. It looks like Joe Bluth just trying to
chase me up and down the streets in Greensboro. So
this is that what you're trying to You know what,

(56:35):
Sometimes in my car with the right music man, it's
always nine. We're talking with Chief Meteorologist Matt angel Brek,
friend of the show w I t N in North Carolina.
All right, so tell me about Stella is is it?
Is it gonna stick around? You know, we got games
in in Buffalo and in the Northeast coming up n
c A tournament. What's gonna happen. Yeah, I think we're
out of the woods. I know Buffalo, they did have

(56:56):
some cancelations in the airport. You gotta remember that games
played on Third Is Day. You got the Irish coming
into town. Um, about half of them got canceled today,
but they should have no problem tomorrow, at least getting
into town. If you get the teams there, you should
be fine. But there isn't there's another Northeastern behind this
one that's gonna impact the games or anything like that.
I think we're good to go. Well, you're also setting

(57:17):
it up for St. Patrick's Day, the Irish coming to
town as well. But you know, as you're as you've
been tracking, whether it's you don't say when Connor McGregor
the Irish are coming to town. Hey, maybe June tenth
is the rumored day. We'll see. But the fact of
the matter is it's been a pretty quiet couple of months.
I know in the in the Midwest, they've been crying
for precipitation, while here in Los Angeles and up and

(57:40):
down the California coast it's been rain, rain, rain. But
for you all quiet, I mean where you waiting on
a big one? I mean Meteori meteor logical week. Can
I get that word out? Do you expect that there
was gonna be another one before the season ended? You know,
February was across the nation warmer than average. I know, Chicago,
Northwestern including in that Chay broke a record for for

(58:04):
snowfall or lack of snowfall. So I would say it
was a matter of time. And we kept telling people
here in North Carolina but also through the southeast, and
the winter is not done. And there's a reason why
we keep stats on the climate, knowing that there could
be another system. In nor easters they can hit all
the way through April. So I'm not saying we'll get
another one. But this was certainly not out of out
of the question. Let me ask you this because it's

(58:26):
something I've always wondered. You know, it's sports. It's easy
when we watch big events, we root for great games,
we root for drama, we root for controversy, you know anyway,
do you root for storms? Do you root for whether
or not? Like like what like what do you come
in every day and you like what gets you going, Oh, man,
if only this could happen, what would that be? Well,
it depends where you live, definitely depends. If you're a

(58:47):
meteorologist in North Carolina, you're rooting for snow. Well, one
of the hardest forecasts to make is snow in North Carolina.
On the other side, if you're in Chicago, you're waiting
for something to break a record in terms of arm
temperatures during the winter because of Chicago, and we've had
enough snow that kind of thing um or system like this,

(59:07):
I'm going down some of the stone. We're talking about
thirty one inches of snowfall, twenty six inches of snowfall.
As long as everybody's safe and there aren't any casualties,
you do get excited as a meteorologist, like watching uh,
I don't know a sixteen be to one, that kind
of thing, to see a system like I like to one.
I like that. So you're doing a fist bump? Is
that where everybody goes out for a drink afterwards and

(59:28):
you're celebrating I mean, well, what how do you celebrate
and commemorate something, My Carmen, I'm telling you, there's nothing
more exciting than four weather nerds sitting at a bar
talking about how low the pressure got with this nor
easter lies on a wall. You guys need to be
that's for sure. I'm in there, Liken, and you know

(59:52):
I beat in local news like I was a few
years ago at KBC. I always know the most exciting
part of the day was when something big would happen
in sports and the and the general magic coming in
and say, hey, sports is going to be in the
first segment of the show because something so big great.
So it's gotta be the same thing with you. When
something weather happens, they go, hey, weather's in the first segment.
It's not hey coming up, we have our kids are

(01:00:13):
gonna run around and a dog's gonna jump in a lake,
and the weather for tomorrow. Like when you're in the
first segment, that's a big deal. Oh yeah, and you
you want to be first. I mean that's that's how
you know that your your weather means something. What you're
broadcasting has has some weight to the people that you're
talking to. So we always try to push to go
first if there's a story there um otherwise, with a
system like this, not only are you going first, but

(01:00:35):
then you have other information behind you from a national
perspective too. Yeah. You can follow me on Twitter at
Angle w X. That's E. N G. E. L Angle
w X, chief meteorologist for w I t N. You
can see him doing the news and weather tomorrow night
wearing a Greensboro Versus behind T shirts on my snowmobile.
Take care, appreciate it, man, we'll talk soon. I'll tell

(01:00:59):
you what's you know. That's the weather guy. I that's
the weather guy who's gonna be here in Los Angeles
at some point, gonna be jacked up about or in
New York, you know, I mean, because l A. It's
kind of I hate to say it, it's kind of
easy to be a weather man in l A. Unless
here's a time when there's rain like there's been in
the last week. It's tomorrow seventy two and sunny. Well,
but then you get to throw into someone who's on
the scene as things start to crumble and potholes start

(01:01:22):
to eat cars and things like that. We have we
actually we have frost mornings here in l A. Oh,
it could get cold. It could be a little bit
of frost on your local commute tomorrow Morning's frost. The
problem though, his surname isn't gonna work here. It's gonna
be rains or mountain. Maybe a long lost descendant of clouds.
I don't know. And that's Angle of bed Entrance music.

(01:01:47):
Now we go to the weather. I'm like, I think
that about you, Twitter, and how about a fresca? So
it looks like everybody's gonna be safe from winter storm Stella,
whether you're in to the game on a street car
named Desire or not. Mr Kowalski coming up in one minute,

(01:03:21):
Curry actually hit a shot and the lead is now
down to seven for Philadelphia, ten forty three remaining in
the fourth. It doesn't matter. I think we're losing by
twelve and the third quarter doesn't matter. It's like a
loss for the Warriors. No matter what psychologic, they're gonna
be damaged so that they win this or not. Steph Curry,
on his birthday, finally hits a shot in the pregame
warm ups is a sweet thing. It's going all over

(01:05:29):
get Villanova. Congratulations. But this is the week everybody wants
to know about true TV. Where is true TV? Hey?
When you get to this point in March, when the
n c A games are on, True TV gets all
kinds of crazy ratings because this is where CBS has
to put some of the games. So to educate everybody
on True TV, We're gonna play the true TV show,

(01:05:50):
not a show game. Let's have our music playing Tonight's game. Myself,
Mike Carman, Justin Frostburg, Award winning update anchor. Hi. The
game is very simple. I give you the name of
a show, and you have to tell me if this
is an actual True TV show or a fake True
TV show made up by me. I'm a big fan

(01:06:11):
of True TV, al right, I I am glad my
chance to shine. They have a lot of crazy shows.
Hardcore Pawn was a show that was on there for
a long time. Watch The Effect because I know you
have a great sense of humor, Jason. I think you'd
love the show. Do you watch The Carbonaro Effect because
I don't like peas? No said, no, no, no. It's
a magic show, a comedy show. It's very it's got

(01:06:33):
magic in it. Yes, very good. Oh all right, now,
I thought it was about the peas and the bacon
t J and the Alfredo sauce. That's what I thought
it was. I got a nice recipe for that. Would
you like me to make it sure? Without the peas?
Thought that? Peace? All right, I'll pick him out. All right,
here we go. Real or fake? True TV show Copping
a Plea A show that examines police officers who have

(01:06:56):
been incarcerated for different crimes. Copying a plea. That is awesome,
police officers who have been incarcerated for different crimes, you sing,
I heard a story today about a police officer in
trouble for shaking people down for cash. You after we
pulled them over. Yeah, it's called bad, lieutenant. Well, let's
start doing the Harvey Kite, tell cry and sliloquise. No,

(01:07:18):
that's not no, it's not a show. That is not
a show. But how good of an idea of a show?
Is that it's pretty good good idea, But the cops
will whine if you put that. Of all professions that
listen to talk radio, who winds most Impermanent tatoo Talk

(01:07:38):
Impermanent Tattoos. That's a show in which people try to
get tattoos removed and run into various forms of difficulty.
Impermanent tattoos in pie. I don't think I've seen that one.
And the sister show Impertinent Tattoos that would be I
don't know if it's on true TV. But that's got
to be a real show. Yeah, that is not real show.

(01:08:00):
But another again, a great idea for a show. It's great,
can expand people's vocabularies. Raise my rent, upscale. There's a
guy in New York. There's no show called race. There's
a guy in New York who was an entire platform
when he ran for public offices. The rent is too

(01:08:22):
damn high. I'm gonna say it's a show. Raise my
rent upscale. Renters take their landlords to court, over various issues.
Raise my rent. It's not. I should have listened into
description before chiming in, because I was thinking it was

(01:08:43):
a here people come in and give you advice as
to how to make your homeboard and talk radio gets listen,
Hey go on vacation again. Las Vegas Jailhouse? Is that
a show surrounding a jail in Laws Vegas? Is that
a show? Uh? No, that's the reality show in October

(01:09:06):
that will beyond true TV when he gets out. That's
out of the Las Vegas Jailhouse. That is an actual
jo for TV. Video Justice, in which people are brought
to justice because of video that people take on their
phones and cameras. Video Justice two thousand seen. No, No,

(01:09:26):
it's not Mike Harmon. No, that is a real true
TV show. Driver Miss Daisy Oh, a travel show in
which actors Adam Driver and Daisy flent Days travel to
different locations. Driver, Miss Daisy name. That's pretty fun. Yeah,

(01:09:51):
you couldn't make that up. Pretty good, d Adam Driver
Wine the whole time you have the bapter Skywalker, a
travel show in which actors Adam Driver and Daisy twent
Days travel to different locations. Driver Driver, Miss Daisy is
not a show. Mr. Going Straight to Hell is not

(01:10:16):
a show. And then the uh the theme song from
her husband singing hazard body Shots a reality show about
bartenders in Hawaii body Shots. I know about this. I'm
gonna say no. Yeah, I would have given that either
he would know it or tie Shirt would be clapping.

(01:10:38):
So no, that's not a show. A Body Shots is
not a show. Round three of this will be coming
up next hour on the show. And if I can
get a title like drive Miss Daisy, it's pretty good.
Thank you Mr Lindey, appreciate it. I really like that.

(01:11:01):
Driver Miss Days is pretty good. You know. I came
up with because Zoe came in today and asked me
a question about Kylo Wren and I was like, oh,
and I'm driving. I'm thinking, oh, this is just a
random piece of normal conversation between you and your daughters
going on. Wait, hey, Dad, I got a question about Kylo.
I would know I was actually making up the game.
And she came in when I was working she was dead,
asked questions. She act sure. She goes, who's the name

(01:11:21):
of the person that plays Kylo Ren? And I said,
Adam Driver. She goes, okay, and she went outside. She
was doing something so um and then I thought, oh Driver,
Oh Driver, Oh that could be Oh Driver and Daisy
Dazy Flint days, Oh Driver, Driver, Miss Daisy Boom, and
that was on there. Wouldn't you see a show if
it was Adam Driver and Daisy Flintay's doing a travel
show and doing impressions and talking about it. It would
be pretty good. Promised not to wine like he did.

(01:11:47):

There are five minutes ago in the fourth quarter and
Golden State now has come from behind to take a
lead over the Sixers. They have outscored them twenty to
six here in the fourth quarter. Doesn't matter if they win,

(01:12:30):
it still a loss. You get down by fifteen the
third of the Sixers. This is a loss for you.
I don't know what the line was. If they covered,
then that gets a raised. You're down fifteen to the Sixers.
This is not the Knicks, You're the Warriors. No, this
is a loss. No matter what I like the way
you think. Now put it, put it down. Can't get
the wins. Still should be some sky is falling because

(01:12:51):
there's a lot of bad over the course of this game.
Stagnant offensive sets, a lot of misques that were not forced,
bad motion look defense, a lot of layups and and
easy buckets for the Sixers. So a big run in
here in the fourth quarter to take the lead. Steph
Curry hitting a couple of big shots here, but still

(01:13:14):
an uneven game that still leaves you scratching your head.
I want Nick Stauskis to hit a three at the
buzzer and win it for the Sixers, just so you
could say Nicks for three, Yes, and the win. Steve
Kerr cannot believe it again. We'll keep you updated on
this game. Six Warriors with the lead just over five

(01:13:35):
minutes left to go. Uh, don't forget. You can stream

Go there. Give us a gray rating. I promise I
will never say a bad thing about you. So last
hour on the show, we talked about the fat guy
in the NFL that got a job. We gotta short
guy and a fat guy in the news. Now we're
you're the short guy falling under the category of well,
because of course they did. The New England Patriots may

(01:14:17):
have found their La Garrett Blunt replacement as they sign
Danny Wood. Oh sorry, Jeff Fisher, as they signed Rex
Burkehead of the Bengals to a contract. So Rex Burkehead,
all five ft ten inches of him, will be playing
for the Patriots next year. I wish I was five

(01:14:38):
ten but in the NFL that's not very big. I
wonder if Belichick is so bored he has now said,
here's our plan in the off season. We're gonna make
sure every player on the team is under six ft tall.
So if you're over six ft tall, we're just gonna
cut you and we're moving on. Everybody's gonna be under
six ft tall. That's the plan. Well, they just traded

(01:14:58):
for Brandon Cooks. He's not under That's why I mean,
they gotta do something. Is you gonna get cut now?
You got yeah, you gotta cut up. He's not on
the books for too much money for this year. We're
going then they can flip him to somebody else six
six ft in under and maybe just get everybody confused going,
oh wait, wait, is that Amandola? No no, no, no no,
is that Edelman? No no, no, no, that's there. I
don't know, confusing people. Maybe that's what Belichick actually does.

(01:15:20):
He has all those guys who are all white and
under five ten. We're different jerseys every week, and you
think it's Edelman and it's not, and it's actually Amendola,
and you think Edelman's Amendola, and finklesigne Horn and nine
Horn is Finkle And now you're gonna have Burkhead in
the mix. Forget everybody doesn't know what that was going on.
And at the end it's the usual suspect and he
goes walking off into the distance. Everybody at that's what's

(01:15:43):
gonna happen. I don't know everybody is over there. There's
guys are so they're all they're all under five ten.
It's like playing a bunch of hamburglarks. Never would never wait,
are you doing an e walk impression or the hammlet's
the Hamburglar? No, the e walk has just gone. Yeah know,
the ewoks don't really have have a noise. No, the hamburglar?
Does you know? They haven't used him in about thirty years?

(01:16:08):
And how do they not lose that? I mean, are
they worried about Oh, there's a negative connotation between stealing
and McDonald's. Why can't you use the Hamburgler? I haven't
seen Grimace in thirty years either. Grimace didn't get nearly
the run he shot. I haven't seen Mayor mccheese in
thirty years either. Mayor was deposed, he was caught in
a scandal. Who's the other whom I missing? Mayor mccheese.
You Ronald McDonald, Mayor mccheese, the Hamburglar I went, oh

(01:16:30):
in this guy. Uh, I have a plate from when
I was kids a kid where they're plastic like McDonald
land play sets with all of those guys on it,
and my my kids have slowly broken them all, robbing
me in the last connections to my child. I think
I'm missing somebody had Grimace the Hamburglar mayor mccheese, and

(01:16:54):
there was somebody else. Uh, stop playing what are you doing? Oh,
you're all gonna go to hell? You all are. I'm
missing somebody that you had Mac Tonight when they had
that dance Mac Tonight. No, no, no, I mean I'm
missing one of those. There's there's a pirate. Oh the pirate, Yes,

(01:17:16):
that was that's what the guy named Sunday, the Early Bird,
the Fried Kids, the pirate captain, Captain Crook was trying
to steal the fix and don't you get to file feet.
There was the professor. He was there from seand I
forgot Captain Crook. Good job. That would have bothered me

(01:17:38):
for about six minutes. I found it on the internet,
Twitter and out out of Fresco. We'll have more on
the Sixers in the Oracle and the biggest story the
Night coming up. Next to Jason Smith Show Mayor mccheesio

one oh six to one oh three. This is a game.
The Sixers led by fifteen in the third quarter. Golden

(01:18:23):
State has bounced their way back, fought their way back.
Despite this, Steve Kerr looks like he wants to impale
someone with a trident. Yeah that's what he does. But
if you know, you bet the Sixers that took the point.
You're licking bills right now. You are celebrating, you are excited,
you are ecstatic because well you're you're a winner. This

(01:18:44):
is all without Joel embiid. Oh, by the way, just
so you know, I mean, apparently this is the way,
but this is a game. A lot of people don't
know that because they think, well, you know, maybe he's
playing you know, No, they keep seeing the term Sixers games.
That's true. I still trust this process for the Golden
State Warriors. Can I still try if they're they're hanging

(01:19:05):
on to beat the Sixers and Steve Kurz walking on
the court every five seconds getting that at people. Can
I trust this process psychologically? He's he's heading towards a
break here because we we've watched the clipboards. I've mentioned
it a couple of times. We've we've seen it over
the last couple of weeks. They haven't been able to
get their offensive flow. Now, Steph Curry finally found his

(01:19:25):
jump shot here in the second half after being a
three for ten in the first half, one or five
from three point range. He's found the stroke late, some
wide open looks for him, the offense getting a little
bit of better rotation. Perhaps those Sixers legs a little tired,
you know, because when you have to bounce guys and
several go to you know, injured reserve for the rest

(01:19:45):
of the season. You're playing awful lot of minutes. So
at this pace, eventually it's gonna catch up a bit.
And happy birthday to Steph Curry about that they gave
him the Sixers on the schedule as a president after
a couple of days off, struggling matter it by this one. Yeah,
this is even even if they win, it's a loss.
Even if they win, this is still a loss. Doesn't matter.

(01:20:06):
You beat them, You beat the Sixers by a basket.
I want to see all your tax returns. I demand
Rachel Maddow gives me the tax returns of every one
of the Golden State Warriors after tonight. I want all
the meat and the guts of the tax We're gonna
go down that road. Two pages won't suffice. That's just
a snapshot, right, that's that's just given me the mistake.

(01:20:28):
I want all the sides. I need a vegetable on
my plate. What we have are these two pages. We'll
get to Rachel Maddow in a second, because a very
big lesson was learned tonight as the world stopped for
Rachel Maddow's report on Donald Trump's tax returns. But I
gotta say this, last night, you took a beating, Mike Harmon,
because on the day that should have been your big

(01:20:50):
celebratory day. Yeah, but it was my big celebratory day
on Sunday, Buddy, hang on, hang on, no, no no, no,
trying to make it Sunday's count on on the radio
on Monday. You're you're not entertaining America on Sunday's nights.
After the I was gonna say, I think I did
a really good entertaining job for four hours Sunday morning. Yeah,
but that was before the selection committee came out. But

(01:21:11):
I like you all week long. You thought something's gonna happen.
They're gonna keep us out, well until they beat Maryland.
Then I felt better about it. Your Northwestern by the way,
your Northwestern Wildcats get into the n c A Tournament.
You don't wear any Northwestern gear on Monday. You did

(01:21:31):
not check every bit of my also did not know
well unless you were wearing purple underwear. You also did
not pick them to go to the final four. You
picked them to lose to Arizona. Today you're trying to
make up for it by wearing a Northwestern football jersey. No,
I just felt like wearing the football jersey today in
case you started mouthing off again and I can run over.

(01:21:53):
You're trying to curry favor and you're not even wearing
a basketball shop. Where's your Northwestern basketball t shirt? No,
fat guys should be wearing basketball. No, No, it's just
it's just shirt. It's a T shirt. You're not a
jersey T shirt. Well, you know what, where's your T shirt?
Dan Evans? You should should have a T shirt? You
made the tournament. How many shirts do I need to

(01:22:14):
buy it? I don't know what do I need? Why
do I need to prove myself to you? But why
are you wearing it? I can't believe you didn't wear
it last night. I'm gonna wear it every day for
the next three months. Down every single person listening to this,
because it's all pictured me and sconsin in velvet. They said,
you know, I liked my Carmen and I don't like
him now because now he doesn't believe in his team.
It's exactly what it is. You could think that way

(01:22:35):
if you want, I I believe. I know you're making
things up, your fake news. You didn't wear it, You
didn't wear anything. You didn't pick your team to go
to the turn, you didn't pick your team to get
to the final four. You didn't do any of that.
Well why should I have to? Because you should? They
count on me for balance. Okay, when you're gonna go
third rail. I'm the guy that has to pull you

(01:22:55):
off when the show is gonna take a sharp left turn.
I'm the one that takes the wheel and eases his
back under the easy highway of life. On the easy
Highway of lives, right, buddy, all right, that's my job here.
So if I were to go and I'd start doing
crazy things and making crazy predictions over the top. Not

(01:23:15):
that we don't sound crazy at times, but there's gotta
be some ground in reality. And I'm that guy for
you now on the Geico studios and we watch just
now Golden State hangs on one oh six, one oh four.
A miss free throw attempt, you know, one of the
forced miss free throws, hoping for a tip, dunk or
something to that effect, instead harmlessly rolls into a warrior's hand,

(01:23:37):
and that is the end of the game. Seventeen year
a winner. Don't try to change the topic. I mean
you you're trying to come trying to update America on
what's going on. I know you know you're trying to
change the topic. And that's what you were so embarrassed
yesterday that you didn't pick them to go to the
Final four and not where any Northwestern embarrassed and you're
going over the top today by wearing your Northwestern church.

(01:23:58):
It was just over the top because you we didn't shirt.
You wore nothing yesterday and today you were in a
football jersey. Well, yesterday I did come in and in
the nude. As you say, I wore nothing, just my shoes.
You wore civilian clothes, that's what you did. You wore
civilian clothes. Well, I had celebrated on Sunday. Really yeah,

(01:24:19):
all right, he's supposed to celebrate on Monday nights, and
that was to night. We're on the aar. We can
talk about your team night. I'll celebrate tomorrow. Time out, guys,
time out. Thursday. I might wear a bolo time. When
Syracuse makes the tournament, you can bust his balls. Hey,
Like we don't win. We went to the final four.
Last one's last year. Okay. We've been to the final
four two times in the last five years and in

(01:24:41):
the Lade eight. In terms of championship, the Lakers have
sixteen titles. They stink this year. They stink this year,
and we'll have more on them coming up in a
few minutes to it's up. When we win the n
I T. At the end of the year, there's gonna
be two champions. Whoever wins this fake n c A tournament.
That's what the n I T is. And you can

(01:25:02):
go put up that banner next to the one they
have no no, no no participate in. This is what we're
gonna do from now on. We will be your n
I T. Home. We're not going to talk any of
the n c A Tournament. We're just gonna talk n
I T. I like my job. No, we're carving out
a niche everybody. This is why I wore the football jersey.
I can run him now right, it's line back office

(01:25:25):
linebacker on him. How many how many hops are gonna
mail it in by talking the n c A Tournament
for the next three weeks, You're gonna mail it in.
We're gonna be different and just talk n I T.
Will win all those other marks except for the teams
that got knocked out, well known on all those markets,
so you can we get some big markets in there.
Giving your two weeks, Syracuse, I'm just saying, you kid,

(01:25:47):
will just gout. Shapiro fire you and not telling me
we will be the biggest deal in the world. Only
talking n I t E only talking. I mean really,
nobody else will do that. You want to fire off
some Mets talk while you're attitude H seven five. Hey
the team, we'll get it hit today. Get all right?
Shut up, Tim, you called for him. We'll just talk

(01:26:09):
n I T Hey you want to get in at
Georgia techer Georgia? Which team for the greater region of
Atlanta and Southwest Georgia is gonna get in? Yeah? If
you effectively got to the streets of Syracuse on a
snowmobile today and evaded cops on segways or their own snowmobiles,
let us know and t J. If you avoided storm

(01:26:34):
Stella Stevens, then congratulations in a street car named the
n I t UM. Rachel Maddow tonight did our entire
show on MSNBC A twitter at how about a Frisco
that Jason Smithson were live from the Geico Studios Dinner
entire show tonight promising the release of President Donald Trump's

(01:26:56):
tax returns from two thousand and five. It turned out
to be very over blown. She had two pages of
tax documents, didn't really explain what they meant other than
the president used loopholes to pay his taxes in two
thousand and five, so tonight was really not worth it,
considering the world stopped once she tweeted out, we have

(01:27:17):
Trump's tax returns tonight at nine. What's gonna happen? Oh
my goodness, Oh my god. And it turned out to
be very fizzily at a disappointment. This is something that
if we did that here at Fox Sports Radio and
promised a story that was great and didn't deliver, we'd
be in Scott Shapiro's office. He'd be like, guys, what
the hell are you doing. You can't promise to deliver
a big story and then give give me nothing. And

(01:27:38):
that's the truth. That's what tonight was. But what you
also saw tonight was a situation that we talked about,
and we talked about incessantly. When it comes to wars
with the media, whether you are Russell Westbrook, whether you're
Kevin Durant, whether you're any member of the Seattle Seahawks,
Richard Sherman, whoever you are, if you go to war

(01:27:59):
with the media, you will lose, and you will lose big. Individually,
the members of the media may not be that powerful,
but when you decide to take on the media. You
take on everybody. Everybody bands together, and the media is
like a swarm of locus, like that scene from The Mummy,
the one with Arnold Voss, lou Is the Mummy and
Brendan Fraser where the scarups just show up and just

(01:28:21):
take the flesh off of everything. The fou that's the media.
I put that on the v d v R the
other day. I've never seen it. I've been on the
Riot a couple of times. There was great. It's like
it's like space Mountain. Yeah. But that's the thing is
that what people don't get is that if you start
a war with the media, you will always lose because
the media will take it personally. And as Donald Trump

(01:28:42):
is learning lessons that Russell Westbrook and as we said,
anybody else who wants to fight with the media and sports,
you'll lose. No athlete gets into a back and forth
with the media and winds up looking good. Look at
the war. Terrell Owens is fighting with the media now
in the Hall of Fame voters, he's the one standing
up going I can't believe you're doing this. It says
that you think Jason Cole is losing sleep at night going, Oh,

(01:29:03):
my goodness, tarall Owens is very upset it and vote
for him for the Hall of Fame. You're going to lose.
You can't pick a war with the media. And that's
what President Trump has done. Every time he keeps calling
media fake news. What's that gonna do. That's galvanizing people
to want to get to the bottom of every business
dealing and every story that comes out. That's why reporters
like this David K. Johnson is the guy that got

(01:29:24):
Trump's tax returns. It's why people like that are doing
what investigative journalists do best, and that's get these stories.
Whether Donald Trump released these stories to him or not,
who knows. But there's so many different reporters who are
gonna make it their mission. You want to take me on,
I will ruin you. I will figure out the truth.
And I'm not gonna ruin you by smearing you. I
will ruin you with the truth because you're hiding something,

(01:29:47):
whatever it is, and it could be, like I said,
it's any athlete, that's anybody else. Tarall Owens is being
ruined right now by the Hall of Fame voters who
keeps saying, you gotta shut up this is not helping
your cause. Whatever, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, ruined by the media,
ruined by guys like Shaquille O'Neil. Now remember the media.
I'm putting JaVale McGee on shocked in the fool and
you're losing your mind on this. You will lose every

(01:30:09):
battle with the media. It's just going to happen that way.
Go through history, nobody the media has taken down presidents
and exposed ill doings that they've had. They've taken down
coaches who have cheated, who have programs that have done things.
They put schools on probation routinely the media will do this.

(01:30:29):
Stop picking fights because you're gonna lose. Interesting night, it
was certainly we'll see what the ratings come out. I
know they're still waiting on ratings from the Warriors Spurs
game UM from Saturday. Evidently some issues with Nielsen going down.
But give credit to your Draymond Green for getting it
done tonight in the game that we watched, and Tarall
Owens the man you reference. They'll be on with Shannon

(01:30:52):
Sharp and Skip Bayliss tomorrow. It's six thirty Pacific, nine
thirty Eastern for more debates. We'll see if he takes
on the media some more Twitter and how about a fresco?
That's twitter at how about a fresco? The Jason Smith Show,
Jason Mike Carmen coming up next, what is easily the
most embarrassing story in the NBA today And a prop
bet for the n c A Tournament. You're gonna want

(01:31:13):
to go put money on Fox And I'm just picture
the scene from Caddy Check. Hey, Ringo, get the boys
some lessons? Willia done done, Dune done? Fox Sports Radio.
It is The Jason Smith Show, Jason Mike Carmon. What
does it mean when Geico says just fifteen minutes can
save you fifteen percent more in car insurance? It means
you should have gone to Geico dot com fifteen minutes ago.

(01:31:37):
So the Warriors escape, they beat the seventies sixers. Buy
a deuce. Steph scores twenty nine on his twenty nine birthday.
Draymond Green certainly changing the scope of the game in
the third and fourth quarter with defensive energy intensity. He
had six blocks. He had a big block of McConnell
in the final minute that could have tied the game.

(01:31:58):
So Draymond Green steps up and how the Warriors are
all feeling great, slapping backs, going yeah, we want to
You needed heroics to beat the Sixers at home, and
they stink without Joel mb they stink out loud. You
are in a lot of trouble. Don't let this win,

(01:32:18):
broad Brush. Everything is find out. You are in a lot.
You're in a world of I don't want to say hurt,
but you're in a world of You're trying to think
of another word for it's not hurt, I want to
say in decisiveness or or you know, it's a a
guy who speaks forming I have I have a metal

(01:32:39):
block on a word that you don't know which way
things are. You're lost right now because that's kind where
you're at. Yeah, you're still trying to figure out how
to get those rotations set. You gotta at a superhuman
effort on a Draymond Green tonight stand line was just
ridiculous all over on a big defensive plays in those
final two three minutes. As you go, Steph Curry, I
heard in the post game, as we're here in the

(01:33:01):
Geico studios, someone asked, it's like you feel like you're
in the flow. You feel like, you've got Steph Curry back,
because we've heard everything about your shooting club. He was
eight of twenty three for the night. He had a
couple of shots, a couple of big shots late, a
couple of wide open threes late. That's all fine and good.
He's still shot eight of twenty three for the night,
and yes, they eked out a win. Is this enough

(01:33:23):
to take off that pressure and everything? Going back to
what we said Friday when Steve Kerr rested rested everybody
for Saturday and that announcement was was made and I
was like, well, here's the psych psyche and psychology of
your team being tested. Is this the thing that is
the magical lickser? No? No, you're twenty two and five
on the year against Eastern Conference teams. That's great. You

(01:33:45):
beat the Sixers at home and you needed every second
of the game to do it. No, this solved nothing.
Succeed and proceed works in the n C Double A
tournament when you're still trying to navigate towards the playoffs.
This is a win and they'll take get in that
battle against San Antonio. But you don't go back into
that locker room feeling like you accomplished much of anything today.

(01:34:07):
You survived and advanced to the next home game. Don't forget.
You can download each episode of our show on iTunes.
Are Shows podcast goes up right after the show is over.
You can download it on iTunes listen to it right away.
Whatever you may have missed on the show. Rate it,
give us five stars. I will love all of you forever.
I say it, and I mean it again. It's on

(01:34:28):
iTunes pretty much right after the show is over. Can
I give you one moment from basketball that was better
than anything moments in basketball? Sure? So with the big snowstorm,
Carmelo Anthony at his locker answering questions and he's wearing
a really big fur coat and this giant hat. He
looks like he's getting ready to run out on hof

(01:34:49):
and rescue Luke. Yeah. There there was a tweet at
thirty four and with some Roman new roles mixed in.
When you have a game at seven, but you have
to captain the Red October at ten and you I
don't know, I've laughed every time I've seen it. Cross
my mellows wearing like that really cold Babushka hat and
he's got it's like Uh, it's like with everybody wore

(01:35:10):
in the heat fleet. You know, look to get it.
They're all dressed up and all crazy, you know, animal gear.
You know that they just killed an animal and I
put it on me. That's what Melo looks like. It's
a good look though. Uh, you know, I don't know.
I don't know about the Russian winner. Look, I don't
know about that. I don't think it's cold. I guess
you don't know. If you're gonna get caught outside, you

(01:35:32):
don't want Yes, I'll leave Carmelo Anthony outside, not on
the plane. I'm easy to forget. I'm only the star player.
It's happened before. Speaking of t J, speaking of Russia
and bad hats back Timothy moscov in what is easily

(01:35:53):
the most embarrassing headline for the Lakers this season. But
the this is so good. This is it. The players
are all that. We can't trade, the all with all
the signings we made. You Timothy Mosgoff, who they gave
fifteen million dollars a year two. He was the first
signing out of the gate in free agency this past
off season. Back when Mitch cup Chack and Jim Buss

(01:36:17):
we're running things. They decided out of the gate, we're
getting Timothy, remember, and we looked at each other, going,
make sure there's a blue check mark. Make sure that's
not a bogus spoofed to count all those things like no, no, no,
this is the first thing to kick off free agency?
Is Moscoff? L a it was? That was just so

(01:36:38):
incredibly awful, and we told you it was genius. Look, look,
look Moskoff and his people hold a fast. Oh it's
great for I'm I'm gonna give him all the credit.
Don't get me drinking. It's then Lakers front office. It's
great for Moscoff. But here's the most embarrassing story of
the day. Moscoff, who has been a healthy scratch the

(01:36:59):
last few games, will be a healthy scratch for the
rest of the season. So the Lakers can evaluate their
younger players. A guy they gave fifteen million dollars a
year two. They thought this is the first guy out
of the gate, and now he's gonna be a healthy
scratch the rest of the season. The Lakers proving that

(01:37:21):
the best they can do is just tread water, because
you know what, the young players ain't that great. And
now here's guys anywhere doesn't matter. Now you're, like I said,
you are now living off of Now you're paying Mosgoff
and now you're paying the money. And what are you
gonna do? Is someone gonna take him for fifteen million
for three more years? Oh no, that's not happening. You're

(01:37:42):
stuck with him. You are absolutely stuck. This is how
bad the Lakers franchise has been. But maybe he'll be
rejuvenated and he'll learn his lesson sitting on the bench
one million million? Does he have to go when you
make an announcement like this, Is he allowed to just
say beat it? I'm not showing up, And I'm sure
he is. But he'll be around the team moscot, you

(01:38:03):
know he'll show up. He'll be the guy sitting behind
the bench and street clothes. What's just per diem uh
eighty bucks a day? I think? And then expenses if
you can get him, yeah, like if you had to,
if he has to uber to practice because he's late,
then maybe he'll wind up getting reimbursed for it. Phones
you might as well cryogenically freeze the damn guy. That's

(01:38:23):
the equivalent of what they're doing now. In her motion, Beach.
I pass it every day and I debate walking again
to figure out the rates, like idiocracy, when they froze
Luke Wilson until they needed him again, Gatorades got elector
lights spoiler alert, all on all this month on this.

(01:38:44):
This is the season's worth of embarrassing stories. This Maybe
this is the worst one for the Lakers. Absolutely, I'm
trying to think about it because there's been so many.
I mean, we could produce a nineties maybe Magic tweeting
out that I he's watching the Lakers in the Mavericks
wasn't good that you know what he's He's just the
president of basketball operations. Hey watched the game. Everybody, you

(01:39:07):
got any questions, send him along on Twitter. Yeah, but
he's still got over because he was so inspiring. Jerry
Rice took up the same Twitter act, so I can't
mock him too much Twitter at How about a Fresca
coming up next, we have a prop bet in the
n c A Tournament. You're gonna have to make your
own decision if you want to put money on it,
and we'll play round three of True TV or Not

(01:39:29):
True TV. Fox Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show, Jason
Mike Carmen live from the Geico Studios, where fifteen minutes
can save you fifteen cent more in car insurance. More info,
visit Geico dot com. N c A Tournament Before we
get to our true TV or not game, the best
prop bet for the tournament without a doubt. You can

(01:39:51):
now officially bet on thanks to sports Betting Dime dot com,
not sports Betting Dome dot com. I would think that
would be you. We'll work in on it. You can
bet on the odds that Grace and Allen of Duke
will get called for a trip or a kick in
the n c A tournament. What kind of odds are
I mean, I'm not getting there Here's it's just like

(01:40:12):
it's a commercial. Oh where can I get a product
like that? Jason? The odds of this happening in the tournament,
you can get forty nine to one. Duke could play
six games, of course, he's gonna kick a games. What
about eighty minutes of playing time for him? No, of
course unless he comes off the bench and Mike Chowski's
pissed at him. But but either way, he's still getting

(01:40:34):
twenty two to thirty minutes to night. I got a
hundred bucks if if this you can get your brother
to Vegas, I will give him a hundred bucks. Just
get in the car and go just but and come
back and then split like the five five thousand dollars
we're gonna win. But we should just show up in Vegas.
I'm sure that I'm sure we can storm a studio
and take over there. I would hope that this is

(01:40:56):
something that you know, like there's a rule for it's
to be dot like, it's got to be document. It's
got to be a foul call. That's gotta there's gotta
be a lot more to it, right, is it? Does
intentionality have have anything to do with it? I mean
does it doesn't have? But it doesn't have to be
a foul call? Like if the if it's a kick
or a trip and they pointed out on the broadcast,
do I win? Yeah? Who's the official? Dita Ditta is

(01:41:18):
the guy, He's the guy deciding your prop bet Joey Crawford,
he'll call that rip, Joey Crawford. The odds to be
like two to one. He'd call it. When Grace and
Allen walked on the court as soon as he fell
down the first time. But speaking of the tournament tonight
the opening night of the first four games, and we
