Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Radio Tiktalk, Tik Talk, TikTok. That is the clock ticking down.
Carry Roads to free agency in the NBA. Just hours
away six o'clock Eastern, three Pacific, the NBA's free agency
period will officially be getting underway. Hit him up at

(00:24):
Carrie twenty five Roads. You can find me at Dan
Byer on Fox. We think we know where Lebron's going.
We kind of know where Paul George is going, and
who knows where Klay Thompson's going. We're gonna get all
into that and so much more as we're broadcasting live
from the tierraq dot com studios. Tierraq dot com will
help you get there an unmatched selection, fast free shipping,
free road has a protection and over ten thousand recommended installers.

(00:46):
Ti iraq dot com the way tire buying should be.
I don't expect it to be as crazy as it
has been during some years. I mean, there's you know,
Kevin Durant, I remember his announcement of going to the
Brooklyn Nets came down before this period even began. But
it is a crazy, crazy time in the NBA. And yeah,
those just three of the names that we'll be following

(01:08):
as free agencies about to begin.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Yeah, free agency time is always semi chaotic. I think
a lot of times we do know the answers of
I think we have the answers to the tests on
a lot of that stuff. We know where guys are
being linked to, we know where their preferred destinations are
and know those things always in place. But you know,
the intriguing one, obviously right now is the Clay thing,

(01:33):
the Clay situation, because of the layers of it. Right
it's it's one regime and they're Big three, somebody now
finally breaking away from that back Big three and possibly
playing somewhere else.

Speaker 4 (01:45):
So that story is kind of fun.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
And then you know, with Clay being you know, considered,
you know with them, you know him and stuff being
one of the best back courts ever. To break that
up and see one of those guys go will be sad,
but also fresh.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
And new for the NBA.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
It's if you would look at any ranking of free
agents in the NBA, Paul George's Numero uno on that list,
that's the target, the prime target, if you will. There
are select teams that are in the Paul George sweepstakes sure,
Klay Thompson is not in that top one, he's not

(02:19):
in that top two or three, but I agree with
you to the point of his name is the most intriguing.
And it's something that what we did last week when
we were trying to narrow down the top five NBA
stories of the season, and for those of you that
didn't know, we threw out about I don't know, twelve
or fourteen nominees and then when I made the top five,

(02:42):
they were just all stories that I picked. But I
may have been biased in all of that, but I
did feel like after we had discussed for that show,
that the end of the Warriors dynasty was the biggest deal. Yeah,
And I think that when you look at Klay Thompson
in all of this, if Paul George stays with the Slippers,
I don't know if they're gonna win a title. If

(03:02):
Paul George goes to the Sixers, I don't know if
they're gonna win a title. If Paul George goes to
the Magic, I don't know if they're gonna win a title.
He's not the end all be all to those teams
in winning a title. They're much more interesting, Yes, But
the same could be said with Klay Thompson. But I
just wonder what is actually left of Klay Thompson. And

(03:23):
why I think it is so intriguing to see is
because if it didn't work in Golden State, how is
it going to work elsewhere? Like that's the thing that
I just can't get past in terms of if you
were to look at a situation and say what team
is best suited to figure out a way to use
Klay Thompson, it's the Golden State Warriors. And again, Golden

(03:46):
State may not be out of it, but by all
reports they haven't had a lot of communication. There are
a bunch of other teams that are interested, and Clay
may be ready for a fresh start anyway. But I
just don't know on if I see Klay Thompson in
another uniform, if that team is going to be better
equipped to utilize him than he would be at Golden State.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Yeah, I mean I agree with you on that. Take
My thing that I would throw in the mix here
is it's Clay understanding who he is at this point
and understanding his real worth. Now if he's trying to
go out and maximize dollars, which I don't know if
that's the case, but it seems to be the case.
It seems like he feels disrespected in Golden State that

(04:28):
they've given Draymond the other one, the one that he
probably shouldn't have gotten righting they are obviously going to
take care of Steph, and so he feels like the
odd man now. So it's more about I think relations
and relationships here in this story where if he was
to leave, he's not getting the money that he's going
to get anyway. In that case, does he go to

(04:48):
a team and this is the triguing part about me
about it for me is does he go to the
right team, a team that he can give a chance
to get over the humplack my Mavericks or the Lakers obviously,
which is one of those teams that are thrown in
the can he go into a situation where he ultimately
wins by not signing the contract in Golden State and
goes out and win another ring outside of that Cores

(05:11):
which makes.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
An interesting for me. There are a few teams that
are involved. Kerry mentioned two of them, with the Lakers
and the Mavericks. Clippers also thought to be involved, Nuggets
thought to be involved seventy six ers also thought possibly
to be involved. But with those teams there are different
layers of your responsibility. If you are going to Philadelphia.

(05:38):
I maybe I'm wrong, but I would think that if
you were to go to Philadelphia and they've got their
decisions to make. Obviously we mentioned with Paul George and others,
but if you go to Philadelphia, I think you have
to have more of a role than just being the
new role sort of guy. You may have to have
more of your Klay Thompson sort of role, which he

(06:00):
isn't necessarily anymore. I actually think with the Lakers it
fits better. I think the Lakers are the best to
fit all of it, with all of it, and maybe
because of his dad in the history, but like that
seems to me like a spot where all right, that
seems to fit a lot better. It's just a matter
of are you willing to do that? If you're Klay Thompson,

(06:20):
are you are you scorn enough by the Warriors to
go to the Los Angeles Lakers even though they're not rivals,
they are rivals, and that would be like the team like,
well you can't go to the Lakers. That's that would
be the team that I think that that stands out
the most. Dallas. I don't know how it would work.
I have questions, you know, about the future of Dallas.

(06:40):
Maybe the NBA Finals is another wake up call and
then they're able to take that step. But yeah, I
just I think that the I think I think his
level of play with the Nuggets would be more than
maybe what he wants, what you would need to bring
to that team. I just think it's very, very limited,
and it stinks because by everybody, he loves Klay Thompson.

(07:01):
But again, it's the fact of if the Warriors don't
see it at the at the price and they're I
think they'd be willing to do whatever they can to
take care of them, because it does feel like it's
that organization. It's just not meaning what Clay wants and
what the Warriors want that I don't know how you
can expect that much if he's going to these other teams.

(07:24):
I'm I'm I don't think Klay Thompson has watched I
just don't think he's nearly the player that he once was,
which is not a surprise considering the injuries that he had,
how long he's been in this league, of.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Course not He's not the same player, but he's he
can be a really good player on a team in
the right role. And I think we're basing his demise
off of, you know, obviously recent play, because that's what
we get to look at. The last game he played,
he was oh for ten and in an elimination game, right,
so that's what we saw.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
But a rejuvenated and if.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
He stays somewhat healthy throughout the year, Clay Thompson on
a redemption tour on another team, I would I would
take a stab of that at the right price. And
so I think that's ultimately what's going to come down
to the right price and for Clay to understand his
real worth and value and not for him, I don't.
I would think from the outside looking in, he doesn't

(08:17):
need max dollar. I think it's about taking care of
me as one of your own, and that doesn't seem
to be happening. And plus being right there having the
first you know, having a front row seat to placating
to other players and other people in the organization and
you not doing that for me. It's just it would

(08:38):
be a slight for somebody that and to that regard,
But for him. It just go to the right place,
go get a chance to win again, and for me,
that would be a win.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Do you think it's the Lakers? I know you said
the Mavericks as well, but I don't.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
I don't know. I mean think you think it's the Lakers.
You got some inside information.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
At all, but you know the Lebron contract situation, and yeah,
Lebron's done this before, but this is a bigger deal
and maybe not to the extent that we're going to
see for the type of player that they can bring in.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
But but then think about all these older superstars that
team up with Lebron.

Speaker 4 (09:17):
They don't have success.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
So you look at it from a outside from you know,
like a from a sexy from a like story wise perspective, Yeah,
the Lakers sounds like it's the best fit. His dad
laid there connections, he's been here, been around an organization.
But older players when they get around Lebron don't don't
have success, and then when they fail, it's not on
Lebron or that team, it's on that individual. So for him,

(09:42):
I would be careful about teaming up with Lebron at
this stage as as an older.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah, I don't think and I think you'll agree with me.
I don't want to put words in your mouth. I
don't think it's as much about teaming up with Lebron
as it is about playing for the Lakers and the
history and him being from here and again is you know,
touchdown at his dad in that point, like it just
it seems too good to be true. Now he had success.

(10:08):
When Steve Kirk comes in takes over a team and
never been ahead coach before, I don't think you're going
to get the same magic that you are with JJ Reddick.
But I just it seems like more of a fit
to me in that way. I think that the Lakers
have a huge lead in front of all of these
other teams that he mentioned.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
At any price, mentioned at any price, you think, because
that's that's the caveat though, we need to know what clays.
You know, what he's talking about, what's what's what's his
asking price and what he's trying to get here?

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, you know what this is.

Speaker 5 (10:43):
This is the Yeah, this is the tough This is
the tough part. But I just would say this that
I am about to say yes at any price, But
you know, again, he averaged eighteen points per game this
past season, but there were the highs and lows replaced
in the starting lineup.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
It doesn't work for them. He's not completely washed. But
if Klay Thompson were to retire tomorrow, I don't think
we would we would say, wow, that's a little bit early,
but one heck of a career. I don't think that
we would just be completely dumbfounded and said and again,
this is guy with with some gas still left in
the tank. So what I'm saying is is I don't

(11:24):
I wouldn't be surprised if he would walk away, but
I would also be surprised if he just did it
for the money, because because of who he is, what
he accomplished, it's not all about that extra paycheck, Like
there is a legacy that you do have to follow.
I believe he'll be a Hall of Famer, Like those

(11:45):
are the things that not that that would change anything.
That if he were to go to the Nuggets or
go to the Clippers, that would change anything. But I
just think when you look back on it, like if
you're just if you're chasing an extra couple of million here,
was it really really worth it?

Speaker 4 (11:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (11:57):
No, I agree, I just think, yeah, I think it's
this door is more about just the respect level that
he seems to feel like he hasn't gotten there.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
We assume Lebron's just gonna be back with the Lakers.
I think that's a foregone conclusion. The Paul George scenario.
I believe you'll be back with the Clippers. I believe that.
I believe that they're going to try to run it back.
But the other teams that were mentioned in the conversation
Sixers in Magic. What I just found interesting about that
carry is if you would have said that two years ago,

(12:25):
you obviously would have been laughed at. Of who you're
going to play for? The Magic or the Sixers. Yeah,
obviously you want to go for Philadelphia. Now it's a
much more balanced question and one that I almost feel
sides with Orlando, like if you were to you know,
I don't know. There was a report that maybe some
of the interests by Orlando has dissipated. Maybe that's by design.

(12:46):
I have no idea, but Orlando actually appears to be
a better situation, maybe a better scenario than actually going
to the Philadelphia seventy six.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
So the Magic for sure would be the number one
place for me if I is Paul George out of
those two sure? I mean they're up and coming, they're athletic,
they're big. They really if you look at them from
the outside looking in, they only miss his play. His
type of player, a guy that can go out and
get get you thirty in the night from the two

(13:16):
go opposition and you can count on obviously if it's healthy.

Speaker 4 (13:20):
But yeah, it's it's that makes the most sense to me.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
You got a great coach and Jamal Mosley that teaches defense,
and so Paul George's been a two way guy.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
It just seems to fit.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
And let's be real, we never know about the health
of Joel Embiid, and Joe Embiid's not healthy. Then now
you're sitting there and it's you and TYREEMAXI. Yes, And
is that a better situation than when you left in
LA Maybe in the conference that you're in, but overall
and winning a title, I'm not sure that much changed.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
That's that's the main cut caveat right.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
If if we knew Joel Embiid would be healthy, that
would be the best place to go. Sure, but he's
just that that track record. That track record has proven
to be otherwise.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Also because let's be honest, Paul George hasn't gotten the
best rep for his decision making and then what he's
provided with teams, whether it be with the Pacers, whether
it be with the Clippers, he and Kawhi I think
bearing a lot of that responsibility. But if you then
go to the Sixers and then Embid's not there, and

(14:20):
then you're going to be asked to step up, and
then it's more of the same thing again. Whereas if
the Magic would falter, it would be a story because
of the young core and everything that you mentioned. However,
I don't think there would be as much backlash with
it because the Sixers are just so much more of
a bigger brand. I like Orlando better in that scenario too,

(14:40):
But again I think ultimately goes back to the Clippers,
and we both in agree that, yeah, Lebron will be
going back to the Lakers. He is Carrier Roads. The
NFL VET hit him up back carry twenty five Roads.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
Hey what's up everybody?

Speaker 6 (15:13):
It's me three time pro bowler LeVar Arrington and I
couldn't be more excited to announce a podcast called Up
on Game?

Speaker 4 (15:20):
What is up on Game?

Speaker 6 (15:21):
You asked, along with my fellow pro bowler TJ. Hutschman,
Zada and Super Bowl champion Yup, that's right, Plexico Buruts.

Speaker 4 (15:29):

with teachable moments. Listen to Up on Game with Me
LeVar Arrington, TJ. Hutchman, Zada, and Plexico Burds on the

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Fox Sports Sunday. He's the NFL VETNYL Pro Carrier Roads.
I'm Dan Byer. It is a Fox Sports Sunday hit
him up by carry twenty five Roads. You can find
me at Dan Byer on Fox. I know we're past
noon on the East Coast. You can listen to us
across this great country. He can listen to us worldwide
as well on the iHeartRadio app. I do want to

(16:13):
bring up a point though, for us on the West Coast,
where it's still morning, there is quite a difference, Carrie
on the crew that you see coming home at eight
thirty in the morning and the crew coming home at
five thirty in the morning. Because as I was driving
in today, I saw a guy getting out of a

(16:34):
car that appeared to be in an uber and he
had suit. It was the hat probably at a wedding
last night. If not, it was some party that was
really dressed up. Things just got too late. He ended
up crashing somewhere and came home in the clothes that
he wore the night before. But again, this was eight

(16:55):
thirty in the morning, and I feel that he probably
got a few hours of sleep. But when you come
in and let's say you do the show that Mike
Harmon usually does, and I know Mike is out, but
on a Sunday morning that starts at nine eastern six Pacific,
the people you see getting out of cars are just
coming home from the night before. They while they may

(17:18):
be in the same clothes that they wore the night before,
I don't think that there was any sleep involved with
them at five thirty in the morning. I feel if
you're coming home at eight thirty in the morning, it
means that you had a good time. Maybe it was
out till three or four, but you know what, I'm
in no shape to drive or do anything or go home.
I'm just gonna crash here. And then your buddy wakes

(17:38):
you up at seven thirty in the morning. It was like, Yo,
you got to get off my couch. You gotta go home,
and that's how you go home. I feel like there's
an enormous difference in those early morning hours. And again,
this can only really be done on a Saturday morning
or a Sunday morning because of the going out the
night before. Yeah, but quite the different audience that's coming

(17:59):
home I'm at five thirty in the morning as opposed
to the one that's coming in at eight thirty.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Yeah, it took me back. I know exactly what you mean.
It took me back to my early New York days.
And you're having to having to go in for early
workout session around six six thirty in the morning, and
you have a long night in New York fifty and
uh you just.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Carrie wearing a tile work carry, nice designer suit, very
very debonnair coming to to lift at six in the morning. Yeah,
so it's it definitely gave me a nice little shock
to my nervous system to see it for Monci Bolanos,
who will be giving us the latest in the world
of sports in about thirty seconds or so, or however
long it takes for her to agree or disagree with us.

(18:40):
Do you believe that there is a different crowd that
comes in at eight thirty versus five thirty?

Speaker 7 (18:46):
Absolutely, yes, absolutely, the.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Eight thirties are the responsible, right. I felt like this guy,
I'm like, I know, he's in a neuber. He probably
had one heck of a time last night, but good
for you. He was walking in a straight line, he
was it's good to go. He passes sobriety test. Yeah,
you can tell. He's probably looking for his phone in
the uber and didn't just leave it there because he

(19:09):
couldn't remember. But it's just the different audience, just in
that three hour window that we are what we are
accustomed to.

Speaker 7 (19:16):
Right, the ones at five am probably didn't.

Speaker 8 (19:18):
Stop no, correct, Yeah yeah yeah, yes, eight thirty one
took a nap somewhere y.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
Yeah yeah and lift their wallet on their friend's couch.

Speaker 9 (19:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
When you guys take naps. Does it completely separate your day?

Speaker 7 (19:29):
I don't know what a nap is.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Oh boy, there she is. They go go get it.

Speaker 7 (19:34):
You know, I just don't. I can't nap. It takes
me a really long time to fall asleep. So if
you want me to nap, I need like four hours.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
It does. It separates the day for me, like completely,
just that, like it shuts it down. It's it's it's
almost like a new chapter of a book.

Speaker 7 (19:48):
I'm very jealous, trust me. I wish I could just nap.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
It's like it's like going into a Nintendo Cultures and
putting it back in and pressing the reset button.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
That's what it feels like.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Yes, it absolutely does. We are playing games here and
we'll easy as one, two, three, four coming up in
an hour from now. Montsi will be a lifeline. But
she is here to give us the latest of what
is happening on this Sunday, June thirtieth, the midway point
of the year. Basically we're about to yeah, we're about

(20:16):
to move on, but it was a leap year. I
don't know how the days, if it's exactly for the months.
I do think, well, let's see October as thirty one,
December as thirty one, August as thirty one days, like
maybe the actual halfway point is maybe July second, but
months wise, six of them are.

Speaker 7 (20:36):
Basically in the books, which is crazy.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Crazy.

Speaker 8 (20:39):
Yes, so NBA free agency you guys were talking about,
but we actually did have news this morning out of
the NBA that had nothing to do with free agency.
The Detroit Pistons are hiring former Cavs head coach JB.
Baker Staff as a franchise next head coach. According to ESPN,
it is a five year deal. The Pistons had a
rough season, ending with the worst record fourteen and sixty eight.
Bicker Staff did lee lead Cleveland to back to back

(21:02):
trips to the playoffs, including the Eastern Conference semifinals. The
Round of sixteen has officially kicked off at Euro twenty
twenty twenty four, and Slovakia is beating England one nil
at the twenty eight minute mark. You can catch all
the action on Fox. Wimbledon starts tomorrow, and Andy Murray,
this guy's crazy. He just had surgery June twenty second

(21:23):
spinal surgery, and he's trying to play.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
He's gonna go. He's good.

Speaker 8 (21:26):
Yeah, So he's saying that he's he's already doing some
practices and he says he feels well, he's gonna undergo
more tests tomorrow, do another practice set, and.

Speaker 7 (21:35):
Decide tomorrow if he's gonna play in Wimbledon. That's crazy.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
He also probably knows he's not going to be playing
too many rounds.

Speaker 7 (21:41):
Right, so yeah, things, I might as well go for it.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Yeah, he wants a swan song, he does. And if
you don't play this year, then you got to come
back next year, which means you kind of got a train.

Speaker 8 (21:50):
Right yeah, And he say yeah, he says, if he
can do this and he can do the Paris Olympics,
he's probably gonna retire.

Speaker 7 (21:55):
So yeah, it's his his swan song for sure.

Speaker 8 (21:57):
The Pirates and the Braves are still scoreless in the
top of the fourth inning.

Speaker 7 (22:01):
And one more story that I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 8 (22:04):
There is a therapy dog at the Olympics right now,
at the qualifying Olympics, whatever's going on, there is a
a therapy dog that they take to the gymnastic trials.

Speaker 7 (22:13):
His name is Beacon, and he's just there.

Speaker 8 (22:16):
To like help anybody that maybe you know, does not
doesn't do too well, maybe gets hurt maybe, and yeah,
so he spends time just going to the different gymnasts and.

Speaker 7 (22:25):
Helping them out. His name is Began.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
He's a four.

Speaker 8 (22:27):
You're a Golden Retriever. I can't and his picture is adorable.
That This is all I care about.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
The Olympic trials going on. They had swimming for you know, weeks,
track and field now gymnastics spent on the last couple
of nights. Yeah. So like Simone Biles remember at the
last Olympics said the twisties.

Speaker 8 (22:43):
Made yes, yes, And maybe that's why they were like,
let's bring it a therapy dog, right, you know.

Speaker 7 (22:48):
And Golden retrievers are just the best for that. They
really are. I feel like if I brought my pit pull,
everybody would be running when you.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
See a golden except him, right, it runs on three legs.

Speaker 7 (22:59):
He's still galloping around, you know what I'm saying. But
then the Golden Retriever. Everybody goes towards the Golden Retriever.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Good stuff, Yes, the yeah, nice, nice to have a
dog there. I'm not a huge dog fan, and I
know it makes no I don't know, I don't know.
Story hates.

Speaker 4 (23:20):
That's a better story.

Speaker 7 (23:21):
He does it, but I told him no, because.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Nobody likes anybody that hates dogs. Nobody does. I don't
hate dogs. We just we didn't have a great relationship
early on in life. Yeah, so I got a little
mark on. Yeah, yeah, yeah that story. Yeah yeah, so
oh well, oh well, when you're five, don't sit on
a dog like it's a horse. That's it. They don't

(23:44):
like it too.

Speaker 7 (23:45):
Yeah, yes, all right, good advice.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Hit her up at Manzi Millenial. She'll be with us
later on. I mentioned var and I used the three
other letters to describe it. It has been in the
news over the last twenty four hours because of the
video replay that we had at Euro twenty twenty four.
I don't want to say screwing Denmark, but screwing Denmark twice.

(24:07):
Once on a goal where they appeared to take a
one nothing lead against Germany it was ruled off sides
by just the slightest slightest of marks, and then another
handball situation that allowed Germany to get a penalty kick
shortly after same guy scored the Denmark goal, got the
handball for Denmark's lad Totally yet screwed twice. But it's

(24:29):
the fact of the question I think ends up being
raised and I'm curious in how this could translate specifically
into the NFL. Is when is too much technology a
bad thing? And I think this is what it is.
The off sides call that was present yesterday was we're

(24:49):
talking centimeters. We're not talking about someone completely fully behind
someone else when we're talking a handball situation. There had
been some discre repancy in terms of how you would defend. Previously,
is proximity taken into account? Now it is not taken
into account. They actually had. The technology they had was

(25:10):
so good you could see the They had wavelengths and
I know this doesn't translate on on radio Carrie, but
they had wavelengths to show that the ball did make
contact with the player's hand because you could see the
contact of the from the sensors that they have. Anyway,

(25:30):
people weren't happy with it, felt Denmark got screwed. They
ended up losing the match to nil. But this does
open a bit of a Pandora's box in my mind
in terms of how you look at the NFL, because
spotting of the football has been something that has been
a topic of conversation for so long, and why can't
we just put a chip in the football. When you

(25:51):
see what they do with soccer and the information that
they can get with it, it sure seems like you
would come to the NFL. But I do feel that
yesterday is a reason on maybe why too much technology
isn't a good thing. Like the referee couldn't overturn any
of those calls because he's tied to what the replay
tells you and what the replay gives you. And I

(26:12):
think if we're in a situation like that in the NFL,
it could just be I think it would be I
think it would be chaos. I also think that it
isn't necessarily fair to all of a sudden look at
spotting of the football at random points in an NFL
game when it may be an inexact science for ninety
eight percent of the other snaps.

Speaker 3 (26:30):
Yeah, with the var stuff in general, though, I mean
the whole ideology behind it is the ref Steel has
the final say quote unquote as I put up air quotes, right,
But what you just said when the video is there,
and you can't you can't go past that and change
that from the human element, which you know, being a

(26:51):
referee is part of that, like it's the human element
that it's a human touch.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
They're humans.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
They're gonna maybe be off of fraction here or in
the wrong way or in the better way for your team, right,
So that part of the conversation that human element being
taken out of it, where it is straight technology and
we're doing it by the book. It takes some of
the ownership away from referees and so you might as
well just not even have them on the field doing

(27:18):
anything if you're going to start calling this thing like
it's a video game.

Speaker 4 (27:20):
So yes, I agree with you. I think the human
element of it.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
I feel that if you're going to be hired to
do those jobs, like, there's an added element, there's an
added pressure that comes with being that person, and so
having that status matters when you have to do it
by yourself. And so taking that away and giving it
to technology and letting technology run the world as it
has already begun to do anyway, it kind of falls

(27:46):
in line, but it takes away from me the part
of it that makes it human, and it gives us
a story of talking about the referees and them doing
their jobs.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
You know, what I mean.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Yeah, and I want to bring in Chris Purfets, a
resident soccer insider expert here. I know that you were
weighing in earlier, but I want to give this audience
an opportunity two calls yesterday screwed Denmark. But what's the
Are there any other bigger issues that we need to
take away from what happened at Euro twenty twenty four
with the VAR yesterday?

Speaker 9 (28:15):
No, this is just kind of a tale as old
as VAR has been in like soccer was the last
one to really add this video replay of the major
sports out there, and it's it's in soccer. It's so
much more important for the flow of the game not
to be interrupted, and it VR has always been complained
about this kind of thing. And for me just watching

(28:35):
that review, it's like, yeah, it's the right call, but
does it does this single it like half an inch
really matter at the end of the day? Is that
Are we really going to split hairs and offsides like that?
And it just it destroys so much the flow of
the game that it's always been a thorn in the side.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
Not only did it not matter, it wasn't even on
that instance that they scored because there was some ricochet
going around and then Denmark ended up scoring, but it
was wiped out because of the instance just a few
seconds earlier. But it wasn't even like that off side's

(29:14):
call was the reason that Denmark was able to score.
And again it's the letter of the law. The technology
is off the charts. To be able to get a
sense that the ball did touch the player's hand on
the handball when we weren't sure, and replay appeared to
show it is great. But if you were to translate

(29:34):
that to the NFL, think about this. Think about like
on a fourth and short at the forty two yard
line and you're trying to go for it and you
run a sneak and they call it short, they bring
out the chains, and then all of a sudden they're like,
hold on, let's go to the video replay. Well, what
about the ball that was snapped two plays prior? Then

(29:58):
maybe it wasn't exact to where it was. That's the
slippery slope that I see in hearing people like, hey,
can we put a chip in the ball to spot it? Well,
everything is dependent on everything else. So if you're making
different rules for different situations, which I think the NFL
does way too often, and not in the greatest of ways.
I don't think that that is good. I don't think

(30:19):
that every fourth down should be weighted more because it's
fourth down. If the ref is missing a spot by say,
I don't know six inches on previous two plays, and
all of a sudden, you're talking about a foot, and
then now you're using this replay to do it. That
to me makes the poor spotting of six inches off

(30:41):
that much more magnified, you know what I'm saying. Like,
if it's first down and a ref just comes in,
guy carries the ball for eight yards and puts it down,
but it should have been six inches further, and then
you do that on two consecutive plays. We're talking about
a small finite. You know, I'm on a space. But
in reality, if all of a sudden, now you're using
replay to go it down to the nearest you know, centimeter,

(31:04):
that erases, you know, that doesn't the other errors that
were made in that possession, I think are much more magnified.
And that's I just I don't think it's great for
the NFL. I don't even know on how you could
do it. Carry if you had a goal line play
because so much matters like on a knee being down
and whatnot. But maybe like in that situation of it

(31:25):
being a touchdown or not, could be a way to
use it. But the technology that they have for var
and soccer is so advanced that people are like, why
don't we have this in the NFL. But I also
think those people are like, don't realize the problems that
could come in the NFL if you have technology that
is that good.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
Yeah, we live in a you know, in a society
where technology matters right, and people are enthralled and you know,
motivate it to you know, dive into these different avenues
of technology and see where it goes. And I can
understand the excitement about that because that's our society. But
when it comes to sport, it's the human element, the

(32:02):
human approach to it is what matters to me.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
I know, we want to get everything right.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
We know that obviously with replay and all the stuff
that we've had even up to this point in the NFL, right,
we've we still debate those decisions now. It doesn't like
it's not one of those things where once we see
it on the screen and the computer. The computer got
it right, there's still conversation around it. So why not
keep the conversation going with the human element and giving

(32:27):
those guys the benefit of the benefit of the doubt
of doing their job, because like you said, there are
so many other calls throughout that game that are you're
making non important, but they.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
Are, yeah, absolutely in baseball. I know Bo Benson one
of our esteem producers here, our executive producer. The automated
balls and strikes and robo amps and everything that comes
with it to use baseball bow and you're you're kind
of our baseball guy here. I don't love robomps because

(33:00):
I think that there's something to have an ampou cause
the outside part of the play to the inside part
of the plate. I don't know how it could become
a good thing if this ever would come to Major
League Baseball acts, and I know that there's levels of
it that are coming to the pro game, we think
in the next couple of years. But it's another situation.
If you don't have an angel Hernandez, you don't have

(33:21):
egotistical umpires, I think you can get a pretty good call.
I think that this could be a slippery slope for baseballs.

Speaker 4 (33:26):
Yeah, I was.

Speaker 10 (33:27):
Actually going to bring that up, so I'm glad you did.
I hate the idea of bringing the ABS system into
Major League Baseball. I think people don't understand how much
the human element of a game makes it a game. Yeah,
Like we want everything to be perfect, but then you're
watching the sport and if it's perfect, then what, like
you want something to be mad at, you want something
to be happy about, like it. I don't know. I

(33:48):
just think it's stupid. Like, yeah, there are umpires that
are bad, but that's part of baseball. You have to
adjust to the strike zone. And you know, the issue
is that it's not entirely fair, but sports never is.
So I hate the idea.

Speaker 9 (34:00):
Paint this a little bit again on soccer about is
how advanced the tech is? Yes, the text advance, but like,
unless you are a contrarian on some of these broadcasts,
nobody likes this, Like it's not even being old in
the mud. Everyone who enjoys the sport of soccer. I
have not met a single person out there who likes
what var has brought to the game. You're getting it

(34:22):
more right, but it's completely destroyed the spirit and the
enjoyment of that game. It's it's this intangible you've just
completely what bos talking about, this intangible human element that
you just completely annihilated.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
Yeah, that's the point. So you go into a game, football, baseball, soccer,
doesn't matter what it is. You go into a game,
you're actually doing research on the refs that are going
to ref that game and how they call the game,
and so that stuff matters.

Speaker 4 (34:48):
You talk about the human element.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
You go into a game where you said, Angel Hernandez,
he calls it how he wants to call it. There
are some umps that you know, they like to call
it the inside part of the play. There are some
that do the outside part of the play. So that
takes a ways from the batter psyche and trying to
understand what that is. It takes away from the NFL
defensive back trying to press because they know this this
this official calls it very tight of the line, So

(35:10):
I can't do it that way.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
So that's that's gamesmanship as well. Jerome Boger's crew is
gonna throw twenty three flags on the game.

Speaker 4 (35:17):
You know, yes, you can.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
You can plan your tail gaming around there. We're gonna
we're gonna be a little bit later on.

Speaker 10 (35:21):
I always, I always think about the legion of Boom
Seahawks who basically committed as many pass interference penalties.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
And I'm moving on here on Fox Sports, right Box Sports,
but I'm dan Meyer. That is not bo Benson or
scratched that from the record. They also dared you to
call it on every plage exact right exactly, Like that's
the point. Yeah, here's this is this and I think
this is the way to wrap it up. In baseball
and football and soccer, there are so many different instances.

(35:48):
The best use of this technology, and it has been
for years, has been in tennis, where the only thing
is in or out? Yes, was the ball in? Was
the ball out? Person against person playing the match? Was
it in? Did to touch the line or not? When
you're talking about was it off sides? Was it a handball?
Is it a ball? Is it a strike? Is he safe?

Speaker 4 (36:09):
Is he out?

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Is it a first out? Is it not a first down?
Like all of that gets convoluted. Tennis's technology is amazing,
there's drama to it. It's the best, but it's not
for everyone. It works in tennis, I don't know if
it works everywhere else. He's carry roads I'm Dan Byer.
We are live for the tirerec dot Com studios again.
Hit him up at Carry twenty five roads. You can
find me at Dan Bayer on Fox eight. Change is

(36:31):
coming and it happens tomorrow. We discussed next year on
Fox Sports Radio Live forthtirek dot Com Studios. It is
Fox Sports Sunday. I'm Dan Bayer. Key's the NFL All Pro.
Carrie Rhoads sitting in with you, talking some hoop and
so much more. Caitlin Clark said something recently. I'm curious
to hear your thoughts on it as we have our

(36:52):
Caitlyn Clark conversation. We'll do that a little bit later
on in the program. Plus, coming up at the top
of the hour, Carrie weighs in on Brownie James being
taken number fifty five and if I'm in the NBA
Draft on Thursday fifty fifth. Overall, I'm going to use
your words, not mine. It's not nepotism, it's realism. Yeah,

(37:16):
that's coming up in about ten minutes or so. Tomorrow
is a big day. We mentioned we're halfway through twenty
twenty four. We kind of start the second half of
the year tomorrow. We do, but it's also the changing
of the guard. In fact, it was posted on Twitter
the PAC twelve is already scrubbed basically everybody from the

(37:41):
league except Oregon State and Washington State. You're not seeing
the schools that are leaving for the Big Ten, for
the Big Twelve, or for the ACC in the PAC
twelve site. But tomorrow is the day that Oklahoma and
Texas joined the SEC the Big Ten ads. Therefore schools

(38:02):
callan Stanford on their way to the ACC mentioned in
the Big Twelve, getting Colorado and Utah and the Arizona schools.
I like to go negative a lot of the time,
but it's been warm out here. I'm trying to stay positive.
I want to know your thoughts on what school you're

(38:23):
most excited to see change, to change leagues, to go
into the new leagues. This is not to harbor any
resentment towards the other schools, but I'm just gonna be honest.
I'm excited to see what Oregon does in the Big Ten.
I'm a Big Ten guy. I think so much of
the headlines were USC and UCLA because when they did it,
they did it first. It was so shocking. But when

(38:45):
we know about Phil Knight, we know about Oregon, we
know about their resources. Like I am very, very curious
and excited to see how Oregon transitions and playing into
the Big Ten. That's the school that I'm most interested
in excited to see.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
Being a you know, an SEC guy, a Southern kid
watching in Alabama, born in Alabama, watching those teams go
after it for a long time in SEC. Always wonder
why you know, Oklahoma and Texas wasn't involved in that
in that conference from the beginning, So I would love
to see. I'm really excited to see what they do.

(39:20):
They've had success perennially, been really good in the Big twelve,
and you'll have in those moments, but I want to
see how they stack up when they can't take some
of those recruits from the from the others now and
actually have to be in that big dance with the SEC.

Speaker 4 (39:36):
So I'm excited to see see what happened.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
I think that there's this narrative that people wonder that
Texas will find it's footing at some point and that
Oklahoma may get lost in the current. But I actually
look at it in a different way, and I say,
maybe Oklahoma will be fine, but what happens when Texas
isn't winning. What happens if they fall back? Then what

(40:00):
happens to the brand of Texas? I think that to
your point, that's intriguing to see how it works out.
What kind of arms race will now go on between
Georgia and Texas and Alabama? And hey, things are different
with Alabama. There is no more Nick Saban, So, like
you know that that's going to be a story in
its own right. But they're in the SEC, so they're
not a part of this conversation. But it will be

(40:23):
truly interesting to see the new schools in their new leagues.
A big, big day in sports, and I know it's
a sad day for many to send the demise of
the PAC twelve and the changes that are taking place,
but it does happen tomorrow. He's carry Roads. I'm Dan
Byer again. It's not nepotism, it's realism. Those are Carrie's words,
not mine. That's next on Fox. It's a fourth of

(40:44):
July sale on Brownie James Takes that expires today. Clearance
last opportunity to talk about Lebron James's son being drafted
by the Los Angeles Lakers at number fifty five. Carrie
Rhoad's going to have the last word in all of this.
Welcome in. We are broadcasting live from the tirec dot
Com studios tirec dot com. We'll help you get there

(41:07):
an unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road as a protection.
You know over ten thousand recommended installers tirec dot com
the way tire buying should be. There is a game
of easy as one, two, three, four coming up. Would
you like to know the categories today, Carrie Ress? I
would The categories are hmm interesting, oh, the NBA Draft okay,

(41:31):
Tennis okay, soccer, Oh my god? And college sports the soccer.

Speaker 4 (41:39):
When I'm I'm already in shambles about this.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
This game is not designed to stump you. It is
designed for you to find the correct answers, and you
can do that with the help of your three lifelines.
Chris Purfett, Bo Benz and Amanci Blanios will be with you.
When do we play the game? In about twenty minutes?

Speaker 4 (41:58):
Not by looking at my phone? Oh oh, okay, I'm
consuming removed.

Speaker 2 (42:03):
From the Steve Hartman Shay controversy, still casting a dark
cloud over the happenings of Easy as one, two, three, four.
Hopefully Hartman isn't feeding monci answers to any of our
tennis or other topics right now. He's going through everything.
He's like, all right, it's tennis. Why would he be
talking about tennis? Well, Monzi, this is what you need

(42:24):
to know. We'll get to that in about twenty minutes
or so. Bronnie James taken by the Lakers on Thursday,
number fifty five. Yes see, takes have been here, there
and everywhere about it. Carrie Rhoades. Your thoughts on the
Lakers doing lebron a solid in drafting his son in
the second round, Well, that's all.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
Fine and dandy, that's cool. I mean we already I
thought should have expected that at this at this point.
But the narrative that the narratives that have been running wild,
i mean based off the nepotism piece of it, for me,
is like one of those things where the nepo part
of this story could have been a beautiful story. It
could have been at a little kid from Akron, Ohio,

(43:08):
you know, going from this rags to Riches's story where
he got so excellent, so great at his job that
you know, his job wanted to give his son an
opportunity to see if you know, he could mirror that
success as well. That could have been a beautiful story.
It could have been something that was like, ah, that's
that's pretty cool. This one of those stories you can
make a movie about, all right, Like this little kid

(43:29):
came from nothing, made it to something. Now his son
has a chance to do it.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Cool.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
We've seen that story before. It would have been awesome,
But that's not what happened.

Speaker 3 (43:38):
In my mind, I go back to realism here, and
I say realism in this perspective of this stuff has
been in the plannings for a long time. It's been
in the works. You know, Lebron's moved to LA It
wasn't just a basketball move. It wasn't a legacy move
for him. It was something that he already had so here.
It was coming to set a base, a foundation for

(44:00):
not only himself after basketball, but also his family. You
move his family out here to you know, prestigious high schools.
His son plays at all the top places and builds
these relationships and obviously it's very calculating. It's calculating to
the point where, you know, coming into this year, we
heard rumblings, and we would hear rumblings from you know,

(44:22):
his agent, you know, the rich Paul and those guys
and the agents and planting seeds of you know, Bronnie
being the next guy and Lebron's gonna play as long
as you know it takes for his son to get there.
These stories have been leaked for a long time. This
isn't something that we just this kid is Bronni has
gone through the works and he's gotten really better as
a player, and you know his dad's playing, but you

(44:44):
know he'll get to the league and that could be nepotism,
but to be on the same team, all of that's
just calculating, and so it takes away the netpos story
for me, where a person based in reality, I could
see this happening, and I'm sure a lot of people
have for.

Speaker 4 (44:59):
A long time.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
So being all taken a back and talking about how
this has ruined the league, those stories are you know,
here and there or whatever. But for me, it's about
the calculating part. When you have a guy like Lebron
who has he says all these things and is very
calculating in the press for him to kind of be

(45:20):
quiet now and seemed like he has nothing to do
with it at this point is where I draw the line,
and it makes me a little bit upset. And it
seems calculating because it's not going to be the fifty
fifth pick, isn't going to change anybody's you know, prospects
of being a good team in the year. But it's
just the calculating nature of it that kind of rubbed
me the wrong way.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
And I think to go along with that is the
realism part of it and why I think and for
some reason, I think people had a difficult time coming
to this conclusion. But you you laid out the points
of everything that Lebron has done over these past few years,
and the decisions to play for the Lakers, to stay

(46:02):
with the Lakers, to reside in now southern California, they
are all calculated and they're done for a specific reason.
And playing with his son was done for Lebron James.
It was not done for Bronni James. And I think
that's the point of it. Of nepotism a lot of

(46:24):
times is to give your son or daughter an unfair
advantage over someone else because of who their parents are,
an opportunity and this is an opportunity that others I
don't think would have gotten at the point. But I
also think Carrie, that we don't think of Bronni in

(46:45):
this situation. On how much Bronnie is being I don't
know if you used is the right way in doing so,
but it just seemed the ultimate goal. The memes and
the pictures were out there that people are designed for
money of him together, you know, with a young Bronnie
James and writing teammates and getting thousands upon thousands of retweets.

(47:09):
That was, to your point, all designed by lebron But
is it good for Bronni?

Speaker 4 (47:14):
That is the question.

Speaker 2 (47:15):
And I think that is a part that I think.
I know people have had this discussion. So I'm not
trying to say that we're reinventing the wheel here because
people have, but it's got lost in the discussion. Again,
I'm guilty of it as well. I didn't think that
the Lakers should have done it. If they wanted to
do it, if Bronny was if lebron was a twenty
year member of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Cavs had

(47:36):
the fifty to fifth pick, then go ahead, do it.
I just I didn't think that the equity that Lebron
had with the Lakers was enough for the Lakers to
make this sort of selection. But I do think what
gets lost in all of this is this was done
so Lebron could say that he played with his son. Yes,
and I don't think that we looked at it and
have looked at it as is this an opportunity for

(47:59):
Bronny James to play with his dad? In that version
like there's it's too different. Could Bronnie James have really
acclimated himself to the college game next year with another
year of college and be that more prepared to enter
the NBA draft and then have his own career.

Speaker 4 (48:17):
Yeah, it is.

Speaker 2 (48:18):
It is so shortsighted than the fact that we're looking
at this and how it's going to be built and
how the NBA is going to profit and how the
Lakers are going to profit, when in all reality, the
buzz is going to be off the first time they
take the court together. Yes, that's gonna be it.

Speaker 3 (48:31):
And you talk about the calculating part of it even more,
it's even coming out in this draft like that's calculating
that this draft is one of the weakest drafts we
had in a long time. So obviously taking the fifty
to fifth pick on lebron Jay's son, and I'm gonna
stop saying that, I'm gonna give Bronnie his platform. But

(48:52):
for Bronnie to come out in this draft particular in
particular was best right.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
It was calculating.

Speaker 3 (48:58):
We knew it's a week draft, so fifty five isn't
going to hurt anybody by taking that pick, So that's calculated. Also,
Rich Paul comes out and says, in the second day
of the draft, after the first round, anybody that takes
Bronnie and in the second round, he's not gonna show
up like that. That's not giving Bronnie the chance to
be hit him his best self direct If he was

(49:20):
good enough to be drafted by somebody else earlier, why
not give him that opportunity.

Speaker 4 (49:24):
That's why it's calculating.

Speaker 3 (49:25):
It's at that point, we're bringing my son to play
with me, and that's the final that's the final.

Speaker 2 (49:30):
Strong nepotism usually just benefits the child exactly, and then
here it's benefiting the parent exactly. And that is is
your point of nepotism versus realism. And we don't know
if it's gonna benefit I this is it's their select spots.
I know people have tried to draw comparisons to coaching
and coaching nepotism. Yeah, I don't. I don't think that

(49:53):
they're the same. I don't even think they're close to
being the same. There there are, there are coaches. There
are many coaching spots on staffs because someone becomes a
GA somewhere or you know, the assistant safeties coach or
just a defensive assistant. Bill Belichick's son was a name
that has been brought up of possible nepotism, Stephen Belichick

(50:16):
being a defensive assistant for the New England Patriots for
four years. I don't think it's nepotism. You know, that's
within the family businesses. If there was only one defensive
assistant job that went to one person that then was
allowed to become defensive coordinator, that's a different story. That's
a completely different story. But there's a lot of work

(50:36):
that people have to do, and you're right, anybody that
has kids would love the opportunity to make a situation
better for their child. I think what got lost in
all of this is is this really good for Brownie,
especially coming off where he had the heart condition, and
there's a lot of questions about that, and you know
Doug Gottlieb, who has the Doug Gottlieb Show here on

(50:57):
Fox Sports Radio that I'm alongside Doug throughout the week.
It brings up the point how many medicals would be
flagged with the heart condition if he was just a
normal prospect. Every single one of them would be. Every
single one of them would be, especially for someone with
the lack of resume that Bronni had at that level.
And that's that's it's a it's an we get lost

(51:18):
in all of the conversations of what does this mean
for the Lakers, what does this mean for Lebron? Lebron's
not gonna play with the son and blah blah blah,
and we I think we got lost in what does
this mean for Bronni? And hey, it he's their parents,
but he's also an adult. You know, they would maybe
know what's best, but I just don't know if that's
the case in this situation.

Speaker 3 (51:38):
Any conversation where Lebron James name's name comes up, the
conversations about Lebron James, and there's no there's no different here.

Speaker 2 (51:47):
Absolutely Lebron James taking a pay cut.

Speaker 4 (51:51):
He's the most sels, he's a billionaire. I think he's
all right, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (51:59):
But and he's going to with the Lakers, and he's
done so before. But we'll always find a take somehow,
some way. But in this instance of Bronnie James, there's
no way that you can deny even as much as
they tried to, the camp did over the last month,
and that Bronni wasn't having any input, just like he
didn't have any input with the JJ Reddick situation and

(52:21):
that hiring. You know, it's just very tough to believe
when you've had all these other conversations and Bronnie talking
about or Lebron talking about how Bronnie could guard in
the NBA right now, which was set at one point
of his last couple of months, and none of that helps.
Then when you try to backtrack, it like the Hayes
already in the bar and the work's already been done.
You've already you know, like you've said what you've said.

(52:41):
You can't you know, you can't backtrack from it. But
we completely got lost in what is actually best for
Bronnie James and I don't think that this necessarily is.

Speaker 3 (52:50):
It's definitely not. I mean, what's best for Bronnie in
my and and I guess again on the outside looking
at it, in my opinion, is just it would have
made sense for him him as an athlete as a
young man. There's no rush to get to the NBA.
He's already taken care of financially with this, with this,
I'm sure with his dad, and he lives comfortably that way.

(53:11):
He's also made his own living at USC I'm sure
he had his own endorsement deal, So it's not about
the money. He could have went back and really got
better at his craft and showed that he was really
worth that himself. I also think it's a different scenario
when the father is better than the sun. And because
the scenarios that we look at throughout sports, the one
that pops up the most is Ken Griffy Senior and

(53:33):
Ken Griffey Junior. Yeah, well, Ken Griffey Junior was just
this off the charts prospect. Ken Griffy Senior had a
nice career major League baseball, but then playing together was
organic because Junior made his rise and was ready to
play and was playing at that top level, and that's
why you fell in love with something like that because

(53:53):
it was organic. Yes, this feels manufactured, it's calculated. Yes, sir,
He's carry Rhoads. I'm Dan Byer Hill. I'm up back,
carry twenty five Roads. You can find me at dan
Byer on Fox coming up next easy as one, two,
three four? And is it already over for one NFL
team when it comes to their Super Bowl hopes? That's
next year?

Speaker 2 (54:12):
On Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Sunday, He's carry Roads.
I'm Dan Byer. You know that I'm a Cordern Norwegian.
Did you know that?

Speaker 4 (54:20):
I did not know that? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (54:22):
And true story, true story. I know they're not getting
this on the podcast Carries the All Pro. I am not,
but I did wrestle when I was younger, and that
was I was in wrestling and I won the Medford
Open in fourth grade and I listened to AHAs hunting
High and Low all day long on my walkman, Yes,

(54:43):
with the tape would flip it over. So AHA has
a near and dear place in my heart. One of
the better albums. I know it's way before your time,
but I'm AHA fan. And there were so many kids
that they ran out of medals, so they had to
give the high school medals. So I got an enormous
medal for winning and I got the chart. It was amazing.

(55:04):
Where is that at right now? That's where I still
have no charts and the medal. It's in a box
at my mom's. I can guarantee you that. But those
charts were something that you cherished.

Speaker 4 (55:16):
It's not like right behind like right on your headboard,
right behind the bed. It's not right. They are just
to like load every like this.

Speaker 2 (55:24):
And I am a chance remind my wife who her
husband is fourth grade champ. Yes, all right, let's remind
everyone who Carrie Rhodes is. He is a trivia master
but sometimes made me the assistance of our staff here
Manzi Belagos, Bo Benson and Chris Purfett. They are as
lifelines as we play easy as one, two, three, four.

(55:48):
The goal is to get a perfect score of tennis.
Steve Hartman exits the room after the banishment from two
weeks ago. I told you the categories were NBA Draft Tennis,
soccer and legiate athletics. Are you ready to go, Carrie?
Let's do this over under is seven and a half,
making it pretty low. So if you want to bet
on if Carrie hits the over under, you can do so.

(56:11):
I give Carrie four topics. He doesn't have to give
me all of the correct answers, just some of them.
Let's play the game. Carrie named one of two conferences
in college that are the most players drafted in this
past week's NBA draft.

Speaker 4 (56:27):
One of the two two leagues.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
Yeah, one of the two leagues that are the most
players drafted in the NBA Draft. This, by the way,
I believe is either the first or second most difficult
question on the board this week. I would one of
the two. You said, one of the two. Yeah, what

(56:51):
are you thinking off the top of your head?

Speaker 3 (56:53):
I mean, you know, I will always let go big
ten ACC in my mind. But the ACC, you know,
they only had I can think of right now, Jared
McCain from Duke Kyle Philipalski in the second round. I
don't know what do you let me look at? I'm
gonna go to I'm gonna go with bow on this one.

(57:13):
I'm gonna go a boat with a little assistance.

Speaker 10 (57:15):
I think the SEC is a basketball conference. Now, I
would I would leave the SEC. Yeah, And of course
I have to assume that Dan is not counting schools
that will be in the SEC starting tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
He might be.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
Of of of leagues that are still in tactics.

Speaker 9 (57:31):
I think I think the SEC.

Speaker 4 (57:33):
There's the league.

Speaker 10 (57:34):
You're thinking, there's a couple of Kentucky guys. You had
Dalon connect from Tennessee. I think the SEC is on
a bet.

Speaker 4 (57:39):
I'll take that.

Speaker 2 (57:40):
You good with that?

Speaker 4 (57:41):
I'll take that one, all right?

Speaker 2 (57:42):
Is it the SEC? Whoa guys? The Big East is
a basketball school? They had eight players drafted. That answer
was good. But the real winner the PAC twelve going
out on top. You had Brownie James Isaiah College. You're yeah,
Williams kid from Colorado. Nine players from the pack nine

(58:05):
drafted this past week in the NBA Draft, the most
of any school.

Speaker 9 (58:10):
But both Bo and me were thinking SEC, and I
think we just got enamored with the top hand.

Speaker 4 (58:14):
Blame Blame Aaron Torres.

Speaker 9 (58:15):
That's the only person I listened to.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
Aaron and I are together tomorrow on Fox Sports Radio
on Canada Day. Yes, and for Doug Gottliebin Cavino and
Rich You and I will be together on July third
for Cavino and Rich here on Fox Sports Radio and
Monty and I will be together as well.

Speaker 1 (58:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
I get around, guys, Yeah, I get around. Yes, all right?

Speaker 4 (58:39):
Oh for one, all right, name.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
Two of three players who have the most gentleman singles
titles at Wimbledon. Wimbledon begins tomorrow. Two of three, Yes,
of the most gentleman singles open era. Not that it matters,
but I'll go, uh, Feder, Okay, I'll go Federer and

(59:01):
uh no, that's US Open. I'm thinking about Pete uh
and uh and I would say Novak back and yeah,
I'll go show me Roger Federer eight, most of anyone,
show me Novak Djokovic seven, tied with Pete Sampras.

Speaker 4 (59:23):
That's what I was saying. I was thinking that was
US Open though, but it was okay.

Speaker 2 (59:27):
Yes, two points for Carrier Rhodes on that one. He
is off and rolling.

Speaker 4 (59:32):
All right.

Speaker 2 (59:33):
This is a fun one. We venture into the world
of soccer. Name three of the four countries that have
won multiple European Soccer Championships.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
I'm not even going to think hard on this one.
I'm going straight to Chris on this one. I'm gonna
see what Chris has on this topic. Chris Perfer, right,
the music when the music ended. Yeah, oh man, the
my head, it's definitely not England. I'm gonna say Italy

(01:00:04):
has definitely won several. I think fan.

Speaker 4 (01:00:10):
Quite sure.

Speaker 9 (01:00:10):
On France, Spain is always a good option. I think
Spain is on there as well, and then we need two, three, three, three.
I'm just trying to remember off the top of my head.
On Germany, I don't think. I think I would go Italy,
Spain and then probably give yourself France on top of it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:31):
Which ones do you want to go with Carrie? Italy, Spain, and.

Speaker 9 (01:00:34):
It's either France or Germany, I would say.

Speaker 11 (01:00:37):
Italy Spain, and then I'll probably go I'll go Germany, Okay, yeah,
all right, show me Germany. There they are with three,
just so Carrie can rest easy, all right, show me Spain. Yeah,
they also had three. By the way, Germany. Two of

(01:00:58):
their titles came when they.

Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
Were West Germany, but still apropos and in these situations
and like.

Speaker 9 (01:01:03):
Their chances to add another one this year.

Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
Right now too, they are the home team and Vaar
seems to be on their side. Finally, for the fifth
point of the game and a correct three in this question,
show me Italy. Yes, two titles for Italy, and the
other answer was France, so you would have had that.
You would have had it covered either way.

Speaker 9 (01:01:27):
Terrible about fluffing around in the last one, MATI did
you know those?

Speaker 7 (01:01:31):
I mean Spain. I'm not when he said that was
the only one I was comfortable with Italy. Maybe with
a guess it would.

Speaker 9 (01:01:42):
Have been very easy and have done this for a
long time.

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
There's uh. I figured that it was easy enough where
there were enough there were enough countries that you knew
were successful that there wasn't something that was just thrown off.

Speaker 9 (01:01:59):
The only he could really fall into would be England,
which you would think they would have more success than they.

Speaker 2 (01:02:04):
I haven't won one. Yeah, they made it to the final.
It wasn't the last time. But that's as as far
as they've gone.

Speaker 9 (01:02:12):
As the Slovakia England game is going, I do not
think it is coming home, as they.

Speaker 5 (01:02:17):
Like to say.

Speaker 2 (01:02:18):
All right, final question. This is the one. This is
the one where I get a little because I'm older
than all of you. Let's just be honest. I'm older
than all of you, and I know Steve Hartman would
help here, but he's being sequestered in a different room.
Name four of five schools carried that will be in
the Big twelve tomorrow. Okay, that will be in the

(01:02:42):
Big twelve tomorrow, that were also members of the Big
eight Conference, Big eight?

Speaker 4 (01:02:49):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:02:49):
Did you guys know that there was a Big Eight?

Speaker 4 (01:02:51):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
Bo, he's got his hands in his head, his head
in his hands, rubbing his eyes. So there was the
Big Eight Conference. It expanded to the Big twelve, and
then it took on different different looks. And now the
Big twelve has got a bunch of different looks. But
there are five schools that will be in the Big

(01:03:13):
twelve tomorrow that we're also in the Big eight. Name
four of them? All right?

Speaker 4 (01:03:24):
Wait a minute, alright, let me think here real quickly.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
Everybody is available as a lifeline, manzi, how good is
your Big eight?

Speaker 7 (01:03:31):
Not even a little bit, not even I didn't even
know that existed.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
But you know about the PAC ten? Did you know
about the PAC ten?

Speaker 7 (01:03:39):
I'm assuming they all had a shorter number than they
are now.

Speaker 9 (01:03:43):
Because you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:03:45):
Do you know about the PAC sixteen? Then you're good?

Speaker 3 (01:03:49):
All right, all right, all right, and there's no Steve
action on this one, correct, No, No, Steve Steve, No,
but I you know what Perfet sounds like, he's ready
to like he's he's ready to pounce. Yeah, yeah, it
does have a little Me and Bow.

Speaker 9 (01:04:01):
Were just kind of sitting here, like going back and
forth because I because the Big Twelve was mostly the
Big the Big Eight and the Southwest Conference when it
got together, and I know Oklahoma's in okap, I know
Oklahoma states in there.

Speaker 4 (01:04:19):
And you mean still current right now?

Speaker 9 (01:04:22):
Though, so still still current, still current?

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
Yeah, so say again, no, I will happily read the question. Yeah. Yeah,
that's the truth because the other question I got thrown
off the no. No, you're actually you're fine. I just
I want everybody to hear tomorrow the Big twelve will
have will look a certain way. I want to know

(01:04:46):
four of the five schools that are in the Big
Twelve tomorrow that will also that we're also in the
Big Eight.

Speaker 4 (01:04:54):
Say, but the Big twelve tomorrow, So will twelve tomorrow'll
be different?

Speaker 9 (01:04:57):
Yes, So we're talking about guys the universe sees who
have been in this conference since it was the Big Eight.

Speaker 4 (01:05:03):
Yes, okay, maybe no, No, that's the trick.

Speaker 10 (01:05:10):
Yeah, tomorrow, So it's not Oklahoma not like, yeah, Oklahoma
and Texas a route because they're gone. Yeah, I think
you're maybe looking at Oklahoma State. Maybe teams that are
joining tomorrow. I think Colorado, Colorado.

Speaker 9 (01:05:25):
Yeah, maybe the original eight though Kansas, No, I no,
Houston was in the Southwest Conference.

Speaker 10 (01:05:30):
Yeah, maybe Kansas.

Speaker 9 (01:05:32):
So I would say Kansas, I'd say Kansas.

Speaker 4 (01:05:35):
Okay, I say Oklahoma State.

Speaker 9 (01:05:37):
What about Iowa State? I think they were in the
original Big Eight?

Speaker 2 (01:05:44):
All right, Kerrie, I think, uh, are you ready to
submit an answer for us?

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
I mean no, but I got Okay State for sure.
I think I got Kansas Colorado. No, they're not in
the Big twelve now though, or they won't be tomorrow.

Speaker 9 (01:06:02):
Oh tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (01:06:04):
Well that's the trick.

Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
So I'll go we're not going to get all these
I mean, Colorado will be in the Big twelve tomorrow.

Speaker 9 (01:06:13):
Yeah, they're one of the teams going to the Big twelve.

Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
Ye.

Speaker 4 (01:06:15):
Yeah, But about and the original they were?

Speaker 10 (01:06:19):
It was Arizona in the Big eight.

Speaker 9 (01:06:21):
What about Kate was Kansas State?

Speaker 4 (01:06:24):
We got oh, I'll say Ky State?

Speaker 9 (01:06:27):
Yeah, yeah, Ky State.

Speaker 4 (01:06:29):
So let's go Kay State, Kansas, Oklahoma State, and who else?
Throw Colorado in there. I'll tell you we'll go Colorado
if they're going back.

Speaker 3 (01:06:37):
They were in the original for sure, I think, yeah,
you guys ready, yeah, we'll try that.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Show me Kansas, Yes, Kansas in fact an original member
starting in nineteen oh seven. Show me Kansas State. Kansas
State a part of the Big Eight. They joined in
nineteen thirteen, stayed all the way through and then joined
the Big Twelve. Show me Oklahoma State known as Oklahoma

(01:07:07):
A and M. Then Oklahoma State they joined the Big twelve,
and yes, we're in the Big Eight as well. Colorado,
come on now and for a score of nine out
of ten, show me Colorado. There they are. They were
joined in nineteen forty seven, then left for a while,
exactly went to the Big twelve, left for the Back twelve,

(01:07:28):
and then tomorrow will be back again. You are absolutely
correct with Texas being in the Southwest Conference. They ended
up moving out. Oklahoma was in the Big twelve or
the Big Eight, and then the Big twelve, but obviously
won't be as of tomorrow. Iowa State was the other
school that was mentioned, but you guys didn't use nineteen
oh eight, the Cyclones joined the Big Eight, then stayed

(01:07:50):
through the Big Twelve.

Speaker 9 (01:07:51):
Ioas Sam Still Iowa, Sam, you can turn your car
back around and head back here.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
Here's the funny thing. Iowa was actually in the early
early days of what the Big Eight was formerly known as,
was actually in for four years, but that was known
as According to Wikipedia, the Missouri Valley Valley Intercollegiate Athletic
Association became the Big Eight starting in nineteen fifty seven.

Speaker 4 (01:08:15):
Good job Chris that Colorado.

Speaker 3 (01:08:16):
When it threw me off guard because they were just
in the back twelve, I'm like, wait a minute, these.

Speaker 4 (01:08:21):
Teams are going to be so confusing.

Speaker 9 (01:08:23):
Yeah, when they were back in the Big twelve, I
just didn't know how long that it's gone. Back in
the Big twelve itself is just so.

Speaker 2 (01:08:29):
Your your original Big Eight or the Big Eight that
we knew before it formed into the Big twelve with
the four Southwest Conference schools where Colorado, Iowa State, Kansas,
Kansas State, Missouri. People forget about Missouri, Massaska, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma, right.

Speaker 9 (01:08:44):
Because I remember Houston coming from you know, that was
Southwest Conference. Let them TCU, Rice Baylor, that was all
Southwest Conference.

Speaker 3 (01:08:51):
There was Southwest Conference, US say all that. But it's
been a lot of team switching.

Speaker 2 (01:08:55):
So good teamwork, guys.

Speaker 7 (01:08:57):
Yeah, well done you guys, Yes, well done you guys.
I just sat here.

Speaker 2 (01:09:03):
On that Which which one would you have best been
suited for Mancy? On the questions?

Speaker 7 (01:09:08):
I none of them, to be honest with you. Maybe
the soccer wise, some soccer one, the soccer one, this
conference one. I was like, I can't help at all.
And the only reason I even thought of Colorado is
because of the wording. I was like, he's being sneaky. Yeah,
that's the only reason I thought of Colorado.

Speaker 2 (01:09:26):
But I wasn't being sneaky in terms of there's a
reason why you have to do the wording a certain way.

Speaker 7 (01:09:32):
Exactly, for sure, for sure. But that was like the
only one.

Speaker 4 (01:09:35):
Yeah, the way with word And I was like, eh,
I was like, there's some here, but he means Colorado, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:09:42):
Carrier Rhodes hits the over nine out of ten. Mancy
Belana is about to deliver an update. That's a ten
out of ten. What's going on, Manzi?

Speaker 8 (01:09:50):
Well, the Pistons have found their new head coach. Everybody,
it's former Calvs head coach JB.

Speaker 7 (01:09:55):
Bicker Stuff. According to ESPN, it is a five year deal.
In the WNBA, the dream are currently beating the Liberty
thirty one to twenty three, with less than five minutes
to go in the first half.

Speaker 8 (01:10:07):
Still to come in the WNBA, Caitlin Clark and the
Fever will be taking on Diana Tarossi and the Mercury.

Speaker 7 (01:10:13):
That's at three pm Eastern time.

Speaker 8 (01:10:15):
This is the largest age gap between two starting guards
nineteen years, two hundred and twenty five days. Wow, the
largest age gap between two starting guards.

Speaker 7 (01:10:28):
Pretty crazy.

Speaker 8 (01:10:29):
The Round of sixteen continues at Euro twenty twenty four,
Slovakia beating England one nil after seventy eight minutes of play.
You can catch the rest of the game on Fox.
In Major League Baseball, the Pirates of taking the lead,
trying to avoid the sweep. They're beating the Braves four
to one. Top of the eighth inning. The Marlins and
the Phillies, Padres, Red Sox, Yankees, Blue Jays. They just

(01:10:52):
got going their scoreless in the first inning. Back to
you guys, thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
Manci. It is Fox Sports Sunday. You can hear Monsei
and Steve Hartman Saturday's here on Fox Sports Radio. And
as we talked about, we'll be teaming up this week
as we'll carry and I here on FSR. It's a holiday.
We mentioned Canada Day tomorrow, fourth of July Independence State
coming up on Thursday. I think a lot of people
are going to be making it a four day weekend
coming up next weekend, and I will be here on

(01:11:21):
Thursday and Friday, and then I begin my vacation. I
have got a vacation. Dilumma Carry Roads and another NFL
team has a dilemma of their own. Yes, the Dallas
Cowboys are in the headlines for all the wrong reasons.
He's Carrier Roads. I'm Dan Byer. Will explain why next
year on Fox Sports Radio. Sometimes it's not what is said,

(01:11:44):
it's where it was said. He's Carrier Roads. I'm Dan
Byer live Forthetirek dot Com Studios. It is Fox Sports Sunday.
He's the All Pro at Carrie twenty five Roads. You
can find me at Dan Byer on Fox Micah Parsons
and the Dallas getting ready for a twenty twenty four season.
That I'm just going to say right now, if you're

(01:12:04):
a Cowboys fan, not the greatest offseason in the world,
and not because people are being critical of Jerry Jones
and him saying we're all in and then making moves
that necessarily don't reflect all in. It's just the fact
of when stuff is going wrong in an offseason or
there's a lot of negative chatter about a team. It's

(01:12:26):
not prediction wise, I think this team's going to be
an eleven win team or this team's going to be
a six win team. It's just more of the fact of,
all right, is this going in the right direction? Is
that going in the right direction? We now have a
bit of a ah, what should we call it? I
don't want to call it an argument, but disagreement between

(01:12:47):
one Micah Parsons and his teammate MALIEK. Cooker. This was
Malie Cooker on Keyshawn Johnson's podcast, talking about Michah Parsons
and his podcast problem with him.

Speaker 12 (01:12:59):
I thing would be know for Mike, and my advice
would be for Micah would be, you know, just make
sure we all you know, and being where your feet
are because we're working. You know, the run games terrible,
But you're doing a podcast every week and you know
the run game is terrible, Then you know, what are
you really caring about? Are you caring about the crowd
that you know is watching your podcasts. Are you caring
about the success of our team and the Super Bowl

(01:13:20):
that we're trying to reach?

Speaker 2 (01:13:21):
Now, those are a few words yeah from Aleek Cooker
talking about his all Pro defensive teammates. Michael Parsons did
not take kindly to those comments, tweeting quote, I just
wish you said this to me, but instead on some
pod said this to me, but instead on some podcast,
and you got my number, family, and you're my locker mate.

(01:13:42):
You could have said this any day, and you do
realize I shoot the podcast on our day off one,
we're talking about everyone preparations and focus. That was in
response to ma Lee Cooker's comments from Michael Parsons. So
who's right and who's wrong?

Speaker 4 (01:13:58):
I think they they're I think they're both right.

Speaker 3 (01:14:01):
But what makes this so hard and so such a
crazy story is because this happens all the time. But
now we're in a day and age where everybody has
a podcast and has an opportunity to say this on
somebody's podcast that they think it may just be a conversation.
But this thing gets blown out of proportion now and

(01:14:23):
the irony in it all is the response from Michael
Parson saying, you could have said this to me in
my face.

Speaker 4 (01:14:30):
You're right next to me in my locker room.

Speaker 3 (01:14:33):
He's talking about something that you're doing on the podcast,
talking about all the things that are going on around
the team and even run game and success and all
these things and other players that you may have to
play the week the following week on a podcast, and
the fact that your buddy says something on a podcast
that's what I'm about you is so it's just so
ironic and crety.

Speaker 2 (01:14:54):
I don't think Michah Parsons wanted Malee Hooker to shit
down next to him in the locker room and say, hey, man,
as someone who's been in this league for a little while,
I don't think you should do the podcast. I think
Michael Parsons is why didn't you come on my podcast
and say it and then we could hash it out there.
That's the true underlying But if Hooker did say it
in the locker room, I think that would come off

(01:15:16):
a lot easier. I am a fan of Malie Cooker's game,
I am not a fan of doing it in this instance,
even though I think he is saying what someone in
my position would say, who's not an athlete who didn't
play professional sports, or just any fan would say, well, jeez,
if our defense stinks or Parsons isn't playing well, why
is he spending so much time on his podcast? But

(01:15:38):
I'm not in those shoes. That's a narrative that is
out there, and you can't make everybody happy all of
the time. It's just a matter of whether Michael Parsons
wants to deal with it or not. I don't think
it's the podcast is a big deal. I think you know,
he said it's on his off day. If he puts
preparation into it, awesome. I think sometimes you do need
to break away and do stuff and to allow that

(01:15:59):
convert station to carry over from say a locker room
or from meeting rooms to the general public. I don't
think is a bad thing. I think Malie Cooker is
trying to look out for Micah Parsons in the flat
that he could get from people like me and fans
saying like, well, why aren't you doing this? It looks
like he's looking out for him, but in reality, he

(01:16:22):
just kind of looks like he's backstabbing him. So in
that case, I don't think Malie Cooker should have said
what he said about his teammate unless he addressed it
with him earlier.

Speaker 3 (01:16:29):
Yeah, I don't think any players should be doing the
podcast during the season. I don't, and I don't. It's
not even just distraction wise. I don't think it doesn't
have to be a distraction, but it just doesn't send
your teammates the right the right picture and the right message.
You want to be all in for those six seven
months that you're you're with the team and with the guys,

(01:16:50):
and just you know, certain things come from those podcasts,
and now people are just taking certain clips and certain
voice you know, sound bites to you know, carry on
conversation outside of that podcast and that team. And so
all you're doing is open yourself up to a can
of arms that it can be a big distraction. And
why have that during the season. And I'm a proponent

(01:17:11):
of following your dreams and do the stuff that you
want to do outside of the game, But that one
where's a platform where miscommunication can happen. It just causes
another possible Fisher four team I.

Speaker 2 (01:17:23):
Look at and it's interesting you say that because you're
coming from that player's perspective where you would have eighteen
weeks of material to go back and pick a part
if you were a listener. Why did Michael Parsons say this?
Why did Micah Parsons say that you can't be all
football twenty four to seven? Though, Like at some point

(01:17:44):
you're just saying, do something else, don't do a podcast
to open up the word. Because, by the way, if
Micah Parsons just sat down and talked football, I think
it would be interesting. But also as a broadcaster, I
would be like, Okay, I wouldn't want you to prep
for that exactly, you know, and to get ready for
it and present your ideas in a way that's organized

(01:18:05):
and done professionally and makes it a really good listen.
And I just I don't know if that would be
the case in this scenario here. I would hope that's
the case, But you're just saying, who cares if he's
prepping or not. He shouldn't be doing it because at
some point it's just going to come backfire. Yes, it's
going to backfire.

Speaker 3 (01:18:20):
And if he was just because there were spots during
the season where I had a guest spot on our
local show and I'll come in on you know, here
and there and do a spot. But that's just been
a guest on the show, and so that takes your
name out of the equation.

Speaker 4 (01:18:36):
So like this is the MICHAEH.

Speaker 3 (01:18:37):
Parsons podcast show or whatever it's called, and so whatever
that brand is, that's yours, and what comes from that
is yours. So even the guests that you have on
the SoundBite you have come out of it that's you. Sure, Yeah, yeah,
I can see that.

Speaker 2 (01:18:50):
I can see that. I'm not mad at that at all.
I just don't Yeah, I don't think that Malie Hooker
was in the right. I think it would have been
much better if he would have said it to Michah
Parsons on his podcast. That would have been better for everyone.
All Right, we're about to wrap up the show. Two
quick things of note. Caitlyn Clark was asked about the
advice that she receives during games, and she says, I

(01:19:11):
would love advice during the game. I don't get any
And I just want to say one thing. I don't
think she was talking to a Leah Boston or any
of her players. I think she was talking about her
head coach. I think that's exactly who she was talking
to really, yes, one hundred percent, And I know people
want to take it the other way, but I think
that's who Caitlyn Clark is probably talking about. And guess
what not the best look to say that Caitlyn Clark's

(01:19:35):
dad would get mad at her for sometimes her attitude
on the court. I don't think that that spot there
in saying what she said was great. Here's the final point.
I got a family vacation, so I'm not gonna be
with you coming up next week.

Speaker 4 (01:19:46):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (01:19:48):
Do I bring the golf clubs? Because on my side,
like my mom's saying, you know, yes, you know, of
course you got to bring the golf clubs kind of
mocking me. My wife's like, you're gonna bring the golf clubs?
When are you gonna have time? Do I bring golf
club's on a family vacation?

Speaker 3 (01:20:01):
Dan, you absolutely take the golf club So miss Bayer,
if you're listening, let him bring it out.

Speaker 2 (01:20:08):
Guys, you want to weigh in. I just am I'm
afraid if Brody is running away and I'm worried about
where my clubs are the dilemma. I will let you
know if the club isn't let me, Dan with me,
He's carried out. I'm Dan Byer. Have a great fourth
here on Fox Sports Radio.
