Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
The Knicks Invacers start Wednesday night, and the Eastern Conference
Finals this year will be on Yes on T n T,
which means I would imagine that's Kevin, Harlan and UH
and Reggie or is it Brian Anderson and Reggie.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
That it's gonna be Reggie.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Nonetheless, well, they may go with the three person group
with Reggie and and either Kevin or Brian and throw
in stan Van Gundy there as well.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Oh god, I hope not. What's wrong with stan Van Gundy?
She can't stand him, I really can't.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
I just well, here's he's like Doc Rivers. He's a
very overrated coach. He may but I think he's a
good analyst. Whatever, Sure he's, he's, he's I've heard better.
I don't need three guys. Give me the color guy
and then give me the analyst.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
That's it. I don't need.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
We have to let we have to pretend that we
care by overpaying more talent to be on the on
the show.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Yeah, so Reggie can talk for two seconds and then
stand for talk for thirty five Yeah, for ten, ten
to thirty five seconds, and then Brian Anderson's already missed
like five plays.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
I don't know if it's Brian or Kevin Harlan, but
it'll probably be one of.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Those two guys.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Well, anyway, if you would like to go to Game
one on Wednesday night and you're bringing somebody with you
and you'd like to sit court side, you can have
a you can set right there in front of everybody
where the cameras will be on you. Two tickets for
eighty two thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yeah, So if you want to go to the most
overrated it's not the most overrated building, over rated building
in America, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
The most important sports building in the world.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Sure, okay, yeah, yes, VIP West row AA eighty one thousand,
two hundred and seventy dollars each.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Oh, it's each, it's each. Oh, so it's one sixty
two to get.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
Yeah, and this also includes twenty one thousand and seventy
dollars in fees.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
So there you go. So eighty one grand for one tickets.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
I'm gonna click go to checkout just to see. Yeah,
don't put your credit card in there, I'm not I'm
gonna put you know, I'm gonna put my email address
in just so I can see so they can continue
to barge you with emails, so I can see what
the total cost would wind up being. Oh my god, yes,
just continue to Billy. Yeah, okay, yeah, here we go.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Oh electronics transfer, just so you know it's free. That's true.
I think I throw that in there. One hundred and
sixty two dollars in two thousand, five and forty dollars.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
My sh well, Spike Lincoln afford those. But he's about
the only one.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, but he's on the opposite side.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
He probably already has tickets anyway, So you got two
tickets for eighty to eighty or two tickets for one
hundred and sixty two thousand. You got Reggie in the house.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Now.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Reggie had a quote earlier, I think it was earlier
this year what he called an Indiana New York game,
and he said something along the lines of, are you
concerned about going out? They're into that arena for the
first time since you were a player, and so why
would I be afraid of this place?

Speaker 2 (03:05):
I owned this city, I owned this building. Pulling in
Aaron Rodgers, He's not lying. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
See again, here's the difference in the most overrated arena
there is if you and granted this isn't four seats,
but the highest price right now for a thunder t
Wolves game at Oklahoma City at the pay Com Center
four four hundred and sixty one.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I wouldn't pay that either, so I wouldn't need So
you got eight thousand for two tickets.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah. Guess what.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
My beer's free, alcohol's free, bathrooms, clean food whenever I
want it.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
There you go. Yeah, and I can pause if I
need to. There you go. That's why when you always
asked me what would you pay to go see a game,
I wouldn't. I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Well, I will pay face value for a ticket if
it's something that I want to do, and it depends
on where I want to sit, well determine how much
I'm willing to pay for that ticket. But I really,
from my standpoint, the only thing I ever to go
watch his baseball, and I don't. I'm probably not going

(04:05):
to any NBA game or college basketball game unless I'm working,
because I do that enough anyway, And that's what it is.
Football is probably in the same boat in certain situations.
I would acquiesce to whatever, but baseball is the sport
that the thing I like about baseball is you can
have a conversation with somebody while the pitcher's throwing three

(04:26):
balls in the dirt. The crowd doesn't crescendo until something
actually happens, and so you can have a conversation and
then wait for the ten seconds of action to happen,
and then it dives back down you can continue your conversation.
A football and a basketball game is NonStop noise. And
fortunately for most of the basketball and football games I

(04:47):
go to, I have a headset on that I can
control what's in my ear not what's not.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
So that's my deal.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
The only person you would not be able to have
a baseball conversation at a baseball game would be in
one Andy Everard, because he's sitting there in his head.
He's like ignoring you while you're sitting there talking to
him and he's calling the game.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Actually, you can talk to me in one ear because
I can decipher what you're talking about while I'm doing
the other.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
It's gonna go one in one ear, out the other,
and you'll just be like, oh, you're done talking, just
like like when you're in a relationship. Uh huh, yeah, gotcha, sure, yeah,
uh huh, there you go, all right.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
So the Knicks and Pacers. On Wednesday night, we'll be
talking more about this series coming up. Speaking of baseball,
we've got some baseball stuff to tell you and another
couple of golf stories coming up.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
It's the Andy Everage Show. On the ticket
