Well.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
We got big sport.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
We got four big events going on ere the four
box for this one.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Right now, two, three, four.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Game six of the NBA Finals, Gold Cup, United States
and Saudi Arabia. We got Caitlin Clark about the tip off,
got the Dodgers after all the drama with Ice today
about to play.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
We have we have four we have we need four
big excuse like.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
The final scene of Phantom Menace, all the big four
battles going on at once.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I got four big things happen.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
This is really exciting because we still have two that
the teams may actually show up and play. Thus far,
we've got nothing from the Thunder, We've got nothing from
the United States. And then we can wait for those
other games to see if we actually get efforts on
all sides.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
How about that and that Tyrese Haliburton? All right? Is
he metahuman?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Did they get him with a tranquilizer dart that you
would normally use on an elephant to get him through?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Or can we admit that Game five he no showed?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Buddy, Buddy, I told you this last night, right right now,
sixty four to forty two, Pacers lead the Thunder at halftime.
This game is over look two big things from this
game now. The first one is I told you after
game two it's gonna go seven, and it's gonna go
the Pacers win Game three, Thunder win Game four, and
then it's going home, home home. What have we've seen
(02:08):
so far? Paces won Game three, Thunder one, Game four,
home home, and then home for the Thunder on Sunday, I.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Told you that, really you don't need forget.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Let's Steven Smith play solitaire, just have me on say listen,
here's how the series is gonna go. Tune back in
in game seven, and that's they're gonna split home home home.
And that's exactly what we saw because look, this is
a tonight where the Thunder came in and they said, okay,
we'll give it a go.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
For the first quarter.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
We'll see, but we're okay putting this away and coming
back and getting some rest and going back for game seven.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
And that's how it's gone.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Right. The Pacers have been able to control the play
despite the fact they're not playing incredibly well. They're still
hitting more shots than Oklahoma City, but they are controlling
the pace. Yeah, somewhere in the middle part of the
second quarter, the Oklahoma City Thunder decided, Yeah, it's okay.
Isaiah Hartenstein's getting out rebounded by TJ McConnell. They're playing
sloppy and getting passes, they're getting jumped in passing lanes.
This is exactly how I thought tonight was gonna go.
(03:01):
They weren't gonna come in and win Game six. It
was gonna be we'll try for a quarter and if
we're up by ten or twelve, then we're gonna keep going.
But no, it's not what happened. And the Pacers took
the lead and they've just been running away with it
ever since.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Three point game.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
After one quarter Indiana with the lead, you see McConnell,
who's playing like he's six' ten and plastic man at,
times it seems with the passing lanes what he's able to.
Do and then doubled up in the second quarter thirty six,
seventeen your final their tail of the. Tape nine three
point makes for The pacers in the first, half as
(03:34):
opposed to one by Your Oklahoma city thunder Again Tyrese
haliburton diving out of bounds to save.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Balls.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Whatever, AGAIN i have to ask the question because everybody
was quick to defend him and rub his shoulders and
tell him how great he. Was, meanwhile you Mentioned steven A.
Smith you saw the human shield he used in the. Pregame, Right,
LOOK i have a daughter. Too, ah you can't come at.
ME i have a daughter and here she, is, say you,
(04:01):
know bottom of the. Deck kind they're both playing. Solitaire
so they're they're. Playing they're playing that race.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Solitaire whereas that when you, race the when you race
whoever finishes, first like you do that if you can
finish within three minutes or two and a half minutes
and you do, that that the race, Solitaire like that's
kind of. Funk ay, ready, yeah go and. Go but,
yeah it's speed.
Speaker 3 (04:19):

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Speed, NO i said it was race. Like you're racing
like you're racing. Solitaire that's what it. Is but there's
there's solitaire and then there's that.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
One that's WHAT i. Meant that's that. True, yeah what
what'd you THINK i?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Meant were you're gonna say, something oh, Controversial now let's
say it was.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Racing it's a rate, racing racing to get it. Done
that's WHAT i. Explained you just need to be race here.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
They were or speed? Solitaire? Speed you need the race
Like Brad pitt IN f. One, Sure Hey Brad PITT f,
one go see it in the biggest ring. Possible june twenty.
Seven but, look the last couple of, nights what what?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
What what do we?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Say we talked About Tyrese, haliburton the. Injury the impact
of the in On halliburton's game grossly, exaggerated AND i
kind of felt weird talking about the last couple. Nights i'm,
like this is just WHAT i. SEE i, MEAN i
don't doubt that his calf is dinged up a little,
Bit but, boy we got so much publicly about his
injury after one of the WORST Nba finals games you
(05:15):
could possibly. Have where he's someone that listens to what
is said about him all the, time he knows what has.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Said he.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Disagreed you saw it during during the. Playoffs, oh people say,
this and they say, this and they say. This his
game is all about confidence and there's games where he
doesn't show up.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
For so what were? They what were The pacers worried?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
ABOUT i am sure coming off that horrible game for,
boy we can't afford another bad game like this For Tyrese.
Haliburton how do we defend?
Speaker 3 (05:40):
It?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Oh the next day From shams run next, day, boom
we get The we get the. Report, HEY mri coming
dealing with a strain cap right away early in the.
Morning hey dealing with a strain Caf, oh, okay, Okay.
Mri M mariah is. Fine he practiced. Yesterday, uh he's playing.
Tonight he looks. Fine halliburton tonight for The pacers has
two points and four. Assists we were fed that injury
(06:04):
simply to put take the pressure off of. Him so
for two. Days, haliburton who was someone who listens to
what is said about again all the, time he's someone
that needs that level of. Confidence and The pacers, Decided i'm, sure,
hey we're gonna give. Him we're gonna Help matt a
little bit here by getting this out there because that
will hopefully stem the criticism of him and the bad.
Speaker 3 (06:22):

he said he's had tonight so. FAR i told you
this is what it. Was this is what it. Was
he's gonna play in game. Six he's, fine he's moving.
Fine this was simply done to give him a. Bailout
so it wasn't two days Of, Wow halliburton's terrible and
(06:47):
how does he deal with? This they wanted to find
a way to make an excuse for him so he
could come back and and everybody and all the critics
would back off, him so you wouldn't see as much
criticism of him when you WATCHED espn Or fox or
tuned in and Watch colin in the morning Or dan
or whatever it. Was you wanted to make sure that
that was that was not gonna be a thing that
affected him going into this. Game and congratulations because it's
(07:08):
worked and the paces are up by twenty two as
we start the second.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Half that's why we have to talk things into. EXISTENCE i,
mean that's what we do. HERE i mean it is
a day for doing. That Uh so we we were
watching this. SQUAD i, NEED i need the thunder to
give some sort of effort, though because otherwise what AM
i gonna?
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Watch? MAN i had to watch The dodgers And padres
and hope we Got we Got.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Padres we're gonna Have Kaitlin clark in a few. Minutes
we GOT usmnt the second half in a scoreless game
Against Saudi.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Arabia got a half assed through that first first. Half
how many water breaks did we? Get did we get
some orange? Slices while we were it was like.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
It was youth soccer because of the weather In atlanta
that there were a lot of there. There there was
a couple of.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Em all, right stop the, game he needs.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Help we're gonna. Indoors uh, No well it's still, hot is, it?
Tott it's still, hot extra water, breaks it's still if it's,
indoors it's always sixty, eight it's still it's.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Still always sunny In.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
Philadelphia but With, helibert and it was funny because earlier
today it became the, well you, know if it was
any other kind of time of, year he wouldn't. Go
but this is a multi week. Injury but if he can,
walk he's gonna. Play it's like it's a multi week.
Injury he's in a he's in a surgical unit having
that work done right, now he's not playing in AN nba,
(08:24):
game and certainly not to the level of minutes to
the effort just a couple of days later from the
no show effort we saw In game.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Five so good godspeed for THE.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Nba it's also good news because it looks like they
get Their game. Seven So Adam silver wins. Again he
gets The lakers sale yesterday and now you get, this
so extra bonus time for THE, nba which will take
us right up into the draft.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Talk, yeah, no it's.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
PERFECT i mean a couple of those guys might actually
show up for a workout that.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
They're supposed to.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Do, no, NO i know you need to show up
and say you don't want to work out for that,
team and the team still saying we're still thinking about drafting.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
OUT i think all those things could. HAPPEN i think
it's fine, now but, LOOK i mean when when you break.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Down The halliburton, STORY i, mean it sounds weird to
say that a team is making an excuse for a
guy so we could avoid. Criticism but that's exactly what
it looks, like, RIGHT i, mean, yeah multi week injury
during the regular hit really multi week, injury multi week.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Injury team do this all the. Time this one goes
rises above the. Level isn't that the language we use
on flagrant? Falls rise to the level of whatever term
you want to use to close that. Off but, yeah
he's flying around like he's in game one of a regular.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
SEASON i mean it TOOK i will say. This the
first couple of. Minutes it did look like. It it
did look like he was kind of a step, slow
AND i, thought, okay let's see how he's really affected,
Here but it more it just looks like he did
some time to get into the, game because you, know
he started out he missed a couple of shots. Early
he missed him, long you, know so it's not like
(10:00):
he was he was really, struggling so you know when
you miss your. Shots, Along, okay he's coming, out he's jacked,
up he's hyped. Up BUT i, thought, okay maybe a
little bit here in the beginning he's affected by. It
but now the way the game is, going it feels
like he just needed time to get, going because now.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
It looks he looks like he's had he needed to.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Rest playing kidding, now sometimes some guys get into games different,
ways And halliburton is no. Different where sometimes they can
dominate from the, start sometimes they need five minutes to
see how things are going to, go how he's going
to be defended and you and the. War the way
this game went, on it was, okay he just needed
a couple of minutes to get, going and now here
come the, Pacers and it clearly looks like this injury
(10:38):
was not that he's not, hurt Because i'm sure he,
is but this was overhyped because, Hey halliburton can't deal
with the criticism between. Games we need to have him
as confident as he can. Be so that's why we
have what we, have and that clearly looks like what it.
IS i can't fault a good strategy with most.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Things but in a sporting world where we talk about
betting lines and and that h tenuous relationship that we
have with all of, that the money as it flows
from betting syndicates and the advertising behind home plate or
or on the scoreboards or whatever, else injuries are something
you shouldn't be dancing with quite the same. Way egos
(11:18):
G i guess would be an extension of. That so
here we have what we do tonight plus twenty seven fourteen,
points four, assists couple of and a, rebound two steals For.
Haliburton tonight big. Effort, hey we get a game, seven
so everybody wins unless you get a furious. Comeback but
it doesn't look like the thunder are gonna mount much
of an effort in that.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Regard oh, no, no, no, no they're they're. Done they're
Not they're not gonna go Creg they're. Done twenty two
at a half. TIME tj McConnell is out Rebounding Isaiah hartenstein.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
UNDERNEATH i, mean come, on but he went Next. Dick
he remembered his.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Heritage WHEN i saw that play in the first, HALF i,
said this is the moment, where you, know the thunder of,
quit where it's the two of them battling for a
rebound and it looks like when when when you're battling
with your older brother who's like four years older than.
You he happens to be you, know when your brother
is six two and you're five to five and he's
just like grabbing the ball up and you're you're jumping
and trying to grab, it and and he's feeling real
(12:11):
lazy because he Knows i'm told me to get the
ball all the. Time except McConnell just wouldn't, stop wouldn't,
stop wouldn't, stop gets in the, spot was able to
jar the ball loose and grab the. Rebound that was
the MOMENT i knew the thunder. Done that they've put
this away For. Sunday the energizer bunny attitude of. McConnell
he's become a folk, Hero. Sonny that's, good so we
get a rise of a new hero in THESE Nba
(12:33):
finals but, yeah twenty four point, burial eight minutes remaining
in the. Third so this is where we sit right. Now,
again it is still a big. Burial looks like we're
headed To game. Seven if something big crazy, happens of,
course we'll keep you posted on.
Speaker 3 (12:51):

in the third. Quarter he uh looks, like WE'RE i
feel pretty. Safe we're headed to get. SEVEN i feel
pretty good about.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
THAT i feel. CHEATED i feel pretty. Good why do
you feel? Cheated you didn't see this?
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Coming, no, no, no it's it's fine that The pacers.
Win the lack of, effort no, hustle no no. Drive
it was a three point.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Game after a. Quarter, yeah and then it was, like,
nah what are you gonna?
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Do It's game six of the. Finals, yeah but where's
your killer? Instant but, dude this is your let's. Battle
this is a final. Buzzer this, lord but, dude you've
seen AN nba. Game this is how it goes in the.
Playoffs teams give away. Games we don't feel we need
to go to the wall to try to Win game,
Six so we're gonna lose by twenty?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Five how many twenty five and thirty point burials over
the course of the. Playoffs that don't make sense unless
you realize teams are not teams are not going all
out to. Win they'll start the game and, say all,
right let's see how it. Goes maybe we get hot from,
three maybe somebody gets in foul, trouble but it doesn't
go that, way and the team in the middle of
the first half, decide, yeah not our, night probably not our.
(15:57):
Night let's put it, away let's get, ready let's not
really exert. Our we'll be ready for game. SEVEN i
get a game, TWO i get a. Game do you
got a chance to close things? Out?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah you, Go, ah what are you gonna? Do we're

Speaker 4 (16:08):
GREAT i, Mean adam silver better had That richard gear
outfit on From chicago as he starts tap dancing singing
about how we got a game.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Seven, well this is, why and it won't.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Change but if you want something, great off off of
this with a with a thirty point burial here going.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
On this is.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Why THE nba playoff series at seven games are too.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Long they're too.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Long because this is generally what we get at least
one or two games in each in each, series wherever you're,
at is that one team, Decides, okay we've done it
and we're just gonna give this game.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Away.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Right if you had a five game, series you would
see a lot more attention to. Detail you wouldn't see
games like this each. Game the quality of it would
be terrific top to bottom because suddenly it's a shorter
series and we could show up and we can, lose
and what kind of advantage do we? Have you will
get the best basketball both teams have over that five game, series,
right game seven. Games but everything THE nba does is
(17:03):
too long. Too the regular season is too, Long the
playoffs are too. Long, no no season takes more to
finish their playoffs than THE nba. Does everything is too.
Long and but what you're talking about games like, Tonight,
yeah five games would be. Perfect five give me five
game playoff series they. Move it would be like pace
of play In Major League. Baseball he would, Say, wow,
(17:23):
look THESE nba playoffs are amazing all the. Way this
month and a half has been, fantastic hotly.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Contented did every game down to the?
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Wire and Instead i'm wondering what kind of thunder legends
we can trot out for the final.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Quarter it's not many thunder.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Legends i'm grasp you bring out all the other guys
to AN mvpkd comes, Out westbrook comes.

Speaker 3 (25:51):

Crossbar hard, boy, hard all.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Right so in front Of franstance dial, miss in fronts
of friends and family In. Atlanta still zero zero The
United states And Saudi. Arabia so earlier, today big story
out of, baseball and now everybody's waiting for The dodgers'.
Response according to multiple, Reports ice went To Dodger, stadium
tried to get Into Dodger. Stadium this is hours before
(26:19):
the game tonight against The, padres and The dodgers denied them.
Admission now there's been you, know both sides saying, Listen
ice tried to. Come you, know we know it's been
going on IN la with the immigration. Raids over the
course of the past couple of weeks and across the,
country and The dodgers say this happened earlier in the,
day we wouldn't let them. In there have been some
statements that, no, no it Wasn't ice that was. There
(26:41):
no one was there for to try to get Into Dodger.
Stadium so there's been a big back and forth on
what this actually. Was but there's no doubt that something
happened at the stadium today and The dodgers are set
to announce initiatives that are going to go on to
help what's going on In Los angeles right now with
the immigration raids and the Big while we're waiting for
(27:01):
The dodgers to to have their big, STATEMENT i want
to say this because it feels like The dodgers they
needed my pr advice right BECAUSE i. Don't because, clearly
with what's going on IN la the last couple of,
weeks The dodgers want to.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Stay out of. It AND i get. IT i get
not wanting to be a.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
TARGET i get not wanting to be, involved AND i, Understand,
hey this is our baseball. Team we want to, play
we want to we want to say. IT i UNDER
i understand, that but at some point in some, meeting
LIKE i would have stood up and, Said, okay do
you really think you're not going to get pulled into?
This do you really think you're gonna be able to
stay out of? This you are the biggest sport going
(27:38):
on right. Now games are At Dodger stadium all the.
Time you have the Biggest latino fan base of any
team in the, country and and they want to see
what you're going to say about what's happening right. Now,
look we had the the anthem controversy over the, weekend
uh with which really blew, up and that everybody was
waiting for The dodgers to have some sort of UH
(27:59):
a statement over. That now this is really you, know
pushed that to the back.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Burner, well you take it one step, further go back
when they visited The White. House remember that was the
day of The Jackie robinson page got pulled. Down all
of those, bios, yeah got pulled, out and there was
no statement or response to that at the.
Speaker 7 (28:14):
Time.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Yeah so WHAT i would say is this is that
and it feels like The dodgers are kind of playing
ketchup on this and and things are moving really. Fast
they need to have some sort of statement and say.
Something and now they're pushed into it with what went
on today At Dodger. Stadium but the whole time IS
i would, say you're not going to be able to avoid.
This you're gonna get pulled. Into The dodgers are the
(28:35):
biggest thing In Los, angeles, right so of course you're
going to get pulled in, Somehow LIKE i would have
known it would be something involving the anthem and now
you know ice raids where potentially they were trying to
get into the To Dodger. Stadium but you know you're
gonna get pulled. In you can't just, say, okay we're good,
stuff we're staying. Out we're staying.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Out.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Now people want to see what your position is going to.
Be and, now instead of being able to have plans
about that for a couple of weeks or a week or,
two say, okay when this, happens this is what's going,
on because you see there's lots of. Stuff there's lots
of stuff going On latino. Community they want to see
what is, said what The dodgers, say and everybody's anxious
waiting for their, statement like you could have been ahead
(29:16):
of the, game because you have to understand that you're
going to get pulled into, this right you're going to
become one of the big touchstones of what's. Happening and
to think that you were going to stay out of,
it that's just really naive because this is how the
world works. Now and The Dodge, again if The lakers were,
playing The lakers would be involved to but The dodgers
the biggest thing happening IN la selling out every single. Night,
(29:37):
right they already passed over two million in, attendance the
EARLIEST i think IN mlb in the last twenty years
and In Major League. Baseball so you, know seeing, THIS i, Say,
okay you really needed to have something readier or not
at least make, it make it to the point where
you are coming at it from a position of a. Disadvantage,
(29:58):
okay well this, happened and now we have to. Respond
now what are we going to? Say whereas you needed
to know going in this is eventually there's an inevitability
that that you're going to be involved in, this and
you have to have something, ready and now instead it's,
okay now we're now we're reacting to.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
It, well when you look at the scope of it
throughout the, city and there's been efforts on all sides
to kind of, minimize you, know how much of the
the city has been, effected but certainly Near Dodger, STADIUM,
uh in that region of the, city it certainly has
has had its its. Instances and we've seen it on
(30:34):
national television for, Sure, dodgers and given the base that
you have, here as you stated In Los, angeles that
you've got a lot of concerned, parties people that work
at the, stadium around the, STADIUM, uh and certainly your
patrons that you're trying to make sure everybody's safe as
much as anything. Else, Right, so The dodgers posted this
(30:57):
is from seven hours. Ago this, MORNING ice agents came
To Dodger state in request and permission to access the parking.
Lots they were denied entry to the grounds by the.
Organization tonight's game will be played a schedule that has
been viewed over twenty five million times as of. NOW
i think to some, degree as an, organization you're hoping
that your civic leaders and the federal government are able
(31:17):
to come to some level of an agreement on how
things would.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Proceed so maybe as an.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Organization you, said let's let the elected officials handle, that
but it's clear after several weeks nothing's going on.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
There, yeah so.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
You're standing back and perhaps asking for Guidance like that's
the second part of, this of, all, right how do
you want us to? Proceed what's our level of involvement
until it shows up at the?
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Stadium?
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Right you can talk about taking an active position one
way or. Another here it was it showed up on your.
Grounds so now you're part of an active. Exercise but
you're still trying to make sure you're heping people, safe,
uh and maintaining some level of of your organization's sense
(32:08):
of where you're at in the, community but recognizing that
you have federal agencies.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
INVOLVED i think you're trying not to overstep in some. Ways. Yeah,
No LIKE i, SAID i get THE i get the.
ONE i get the philosophy.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
Of of Of, okay we don't want to become a, target,
right The dodgers don't want to become a touchstone for.
This they don't want to become, Okay and now now
the focus on The dodgers and what they're saying or not.
Saying SO i get that part of. It but you
still have to know. That, okay we can't avoid, It,
like that's not something we're gonna be able to.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Avoid we're The, dodgers right that this IS i, mean
where the this is the.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Number this is the most popular team in the. City
they're more popular than The lakers and more popular than THE,
usc more popul than THE. Ucla they're every third person
wears A dodgers hat or A DODGERS t shirt. Something
The dodgers are the biggest thing in the. City so,
yeah when the biggest, thing most high profile thing is,
that of course that's gonna. Happen of course that's going
to be a part of.
Speaker 7 (33:01):
It.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Right you could say you want to avoid a we want,
to we want to we want to tread, carefully BUT i, mean,
really you're naive if you think we're going to not
be in. IT i, mean, yeah it's, Okay so let's
have this ready when it does, happen so we can
adjust to however it.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Goes, yeah at this, POINT i want to see what
the statement is because allegedly we were going to see
it today that didn't, happen and now it's. Indefinite before you,
DO i don't know what the substance is for ALL i,
know they're going to put out a ten page memorandum
that they've had meetings for two weeks that you know
there were contingency plans and things kept. Changing as as we,
(33:34):
know things have changed here repeatedly with curfews and curfew,
hours and businesses and and engagements across the city shut
down at times that people are, reacting and The dodgers among.
Them when you're talking about fifty three thousand people packing
a stadium for these these, games you know you're trying
to rely on the guidance of your your law enforce
(33:56):
enforcement agencies to a, degree and you certainly need to
keep your relations with them intact as. Well ready for

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Them Uh so this happened about a month, ago but
video of it just came. Out now you wonder how
many people are trying to keep video of this from
from getting. Out but maybe you saw this earlier today
where Former superstar running Back Adrian peterson got involved in
a fist fight at a social club In houston at
(36:22):
the end Of may over a hand of. POKER a
SOCIAL a social club that's like the the after dinner supper.
Club it's a supper. Club supper clubs are open until
four in the, morning but supper is like at six. O'clock,
YEAH i, know just go with. It so you know
this social, club which is basically a big room where
people are, gambling, right that's that's. Yeah so you see
the video that that that's from far away That i'm
(36:44):
sure someone was taking.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Video, Hey Adrian peterson is.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Playing things are getting needed over at that table Where
peterson gets up and starts fighting with another guy at
the table and the fight ranges all. Over it was
like a fight in A marvel movie like this ranges
from the from the table all the way to the.
Side him and the guy are throwing punches at each.
Other it all stemmed over a dispute over the. Hand
(37:06):
we don't know what exactly was at, issue but it
was a dispute over a hand of. Poker peterson, SAYS
i regret the. Incident the. Guy he AND i are like.
Brothers we, disagreed you, know we got physical and now it's.
Over oh, Yeah because people THAT i like, with THAT
i hang out, WITH i always want to fight them
after a hand of. Poker oh, yeah, yeah you're my best.
Friend let's, go let's. GO i saw you pull that
(37:28):
eight of spades out from under your.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
Sleeve let me.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
Go BUT i had that every once in a, while
a little bit of a dust up of, uh you,
know where you get a little bit, frustrated you've gone,
cold and now you imagine things in your. Head the
whole Time i'm watching this play, Out it's like that
scene In Spider man where Stan lee's working in the
library and you get the classical music going as the
(37:52):
fight goes.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
On bey on.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
THEM i will say, this the guy that he was
fighting pretty good on his. Feet Because peterson goes to
land a couple of. Haymakers, yeah doesn't come, close, no, no,
no but he has a big. Reach he's bigger than the.
Guy i'm, like, wow this.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
Reach that guy still was able to evade.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Him, yeah well he was still the whole reason the fight,
ranged because the guy was like backing, up throwing a,
punch backing, up throwing a, punch backing.
Speaker 3 (38:12):
Up like that's why the fight. Moved he can't. Fault
that's a good. Strategy.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Yeah well, yeah if you're a. Chase i've shaken hands
With Adrian. Peterson he's got a bit of a. Grip
he's got a bit of a grip.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
On he didn't hate you as much As Charles woodson
or some of your other. Nemeses but that was always
his thing was to get that strong.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
Hands, yeah that's been his. THING i was, like, WOW
i remember he.
Speaker 4 (38:33):
Did he did that at a rookie EVENT i went,
to AND i was, like what are we trying to prove?
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Here all, right, nuts he'd like to shake hands really?
Strong get how strong my grip?
Speaker 1 (38:41):
IS i, MEAN i don't, know like WHAT I i
just keep thinking the scene From airplane when the girl
scouts catch each other cheating at cards and they, start you,
know punching each, other and they pull out the knives
and they brawl with each, other all going on outside
the dance. Floor i've never been that upset with somebody
over a hand of poker in a social, club especially
WHERE i felt LIKE i want to fight the other.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
Person these guys aren't dressed nearly well.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Enough this is, yeah this is, like this is like
so very a very casual social. Club like IT'S t
shirt and shorts social. Club oh, okay that's that's not
this is NOT i start asking. Questions is lealities and
this is Not James bond where they're playing bat and
it's a million dollars a.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
Hand oh, yes well, played, Doctor, no well. Played no
one's there petting a white, cat Sister. Bond, yeah none
of that is. Happening but yet here's a. Fistfight And
i've had, Games i've, PLAYED i played card. GAMES i
still remember. This WHY i was thinking about this. Today
there was one time my best friend AND i In.
Syracuse we we're at a bar hanging, out and these
guys we're talking about playing, pitch which is. A it's
(39:43):
a it's a trump based.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Game pitch is, awesome and so, uh these, guys like
we're talking, about, yeah you guys want to, play and
these two guys who are obviously best, friends we play
against them and they're just destroying. Us AND i know they're.
CHEATING i just can't prove it because certain things are
happening with their bidding WHERE i, know you know what
the other person, has and they're beating us like three
and we're not playing for money or.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
Anything where's like they're.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
Playing they're playing with like a twin language where you
can't understand what that code.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Is and at one point the, guys the guys are,
like the one guy, says what's? Wrong, NO i JUST
i know you guys are, cheating AND i just can't tell.
How BUT i know you guys are. Cheating what do
you mean we're? Cheating you're Not you're not bidding four
when you don't know if the jack is. Out you're
not bidding four on that unless you know your partner
has the. Jack which guy Was Edward Norton and THEN
i caught. Him and THEN i caught, HIM i was like,
(40:29):
okay and then it took me BECAUSE i really wanted
to do, it AND i Want i'm, like, okay AND
i caught.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
IT i, said, right we're not, playing we're. Done and
we walked away AND i don't know if they want to.
Fight i'm just.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
DONE i called them because this was one of. Them
would you would hold their cards with a certain number
of fingers depending on what suit they, wanted like if
they were holding it with what their four finger with,
spades two fingers with. Diamonds SO i, said, oh so
it's the fingers is how you're doing? It BECAUSE i
saw you you're holding your your cards.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
Differently, no, no not doing. It i'm not doing. IT i,
said you know, What we're. Done we're not. Playing we're not.
Playing oh you guys are just So i'm, like, no we're,
Not we're. Not i'm. Done we're.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Not if we were losing, MONEY i would get, it
but we're just playing for. Fun we really get a
cheat to do.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
This we're just why do we even? Know you're just hanging?
Out BUT i, mean you have.
Speaker 4 (41:05):
To practice those things before you take them to a
money Came but, still if they.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Well.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
We got big sport.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
We got four big events going on ere the four
box for this one.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Right now, two, three, four.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Game six of the NBA Finals, Gold Cup, United States
and Saudi Arabia. We got Caitlin Clark about the tip off,
got the Dodgers after all the drama with Ice today
about to play.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
We have we have four we have we need four
big excuse like.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
The final scene of Phantom Menace, all the big four
battles going on at once.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I got four big things happen.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
This is really exciting because we still have two that
the teams may actually show up and play. Thus far,
we've got nothing from the Thunder, We've got nothing from
the United States. And then we can wait for those
other games to see if we actually get efforts on
all sides.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
How about that and that Tyrese Haliburton? All right? Is
he metahuman?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Did they get him with a tranquilizer dart that you
would normally use on an elephant to get him through?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Or can we admit that Game five he no showed?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Buddy, Buddy, I told you this last night, right right now,
sixty four to forty two, Pacers lead the Thunder at halftime.
This game is over look two big things from this
game now. The first one is I told you after
game two it's gonna go seven, and it's gonna go
the Pacers win Game three, Thunder win Game four, and
then it's going home, home home. What have we've seen
(02:08):
so far? Paces won Game three, Thunder one, Game four,
home home, and then home for the Thunder on Sunday, I.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Told you that, really you don't need forget.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Let's Steven Smith play solitaire, just have me on say listen,
here's how the series is gonna go. Tune back in
in game seven, and that's they're gonna split home home home.
And that's exactly what we saw because look, this is
a tonight where the Thunder came in and they said, okay,
we'll give it a go.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
For the first quarter.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
We'll see, but we're okay putting this away and coming
back and getting some rest and going back for game seven.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
And that's how it's gone.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Right. The Pacers have been able to control the play
despite the fact they're not playing incredibly well. They're still
hitting more shots than Oklahoma City, but they are controlling
the pace. Yeah, somewhere in the middle part of the
second quarter, the Oklahoma City Thunder decided, Yeah, it's okay.
Isaiah Hartenstein's getting out rebounded by TJ McConnell. They're playing
sloppy and getting passes, they're getting jumped in passing lanes.
This is exactly how I thought tonight was gonna go.
(03:01):
They weren't gonna come in and win Game six. It
was gonna be we'll try for a quarter and if
we're up by ten or twelve, then we're gonna keep going.
But no, it's not what happened. And the Pacers took
the lead and they've just been running away with it
ever since.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Three point game.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
After one quarter Indiana with the lead, you see McConnell,
who's playing like he's six' ten and plastic man at,
times it seems with the passing lanes what he's able to.
Do and then doubled up in the second quarter thirty six,
seventeen your final their tail of the. Tape nine three
point makes for The pacers in the first, half as
(03:34):
opposed to one by Your Oklahoma city thunder Again Tyrese
haliburton diving out of bounds to save.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Balls.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Whatever, AGAIN i have to ask the question because everybody
was quick to defend him and rub his shoulders and
tell him how great he. Was, meanwhile you Mentioned steven A.
Smith you saw the human shield he used in the. Pregame, Right,
LOOK i have a daughter. Too, ah you can't come at.
ME i have a daughter and here she, is, say you,
(04:01):
know bottom of the. Deck kind they're both playing. Solitaire
so they're they're. Playing they're playing that race.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Solitaire whereas that when you, race the when you race
whoever finishes, first like you do that if you can
finish within three minutes or two and a half minutes
and you do, that that the race, Solitaire like that's
kind of. Funk ay, ready, yeah go and. Go but,
yeah it's speed.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Solitaire, uh that's WHAT i said it. Was you said.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Speed, NO i said it was race. Like you're racing
like you're racing. Solitaire that's what it. Is but there's
there's solitaire and then there's that.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
One that's WHAT i. Meant that's that. True, yeah what
what'd you THINK i?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Meant were you're gonna say, something oh, Controversial now let's
say it was.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Racing it's a rate, racing racing to get it. Done
that's WHAT i. Explained you just need to be race here.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
They were or speed? Solitaire? Speed you need the race
Like Brad pitt IN f. One, Sure Hey Brad PITT f,
one go see it in the biggest ring. Possible june twenty.
Seven but, look the last couple of, nights what what?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
What what do we?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Say we talked About Tyrese, haliburton the. Injury the impact
of the in On halliburton's game grossly, exaggerated AND i
kind of felt weird talking about the last couple. Nights i'm,
like this is just WHAT i. SEE i, MEAN i
don't doubt that his calf is dinged up a little,
Bit but, boy we got so much publicly about his
injury after one of the WORST Nba finals games you
(05:15):
could possibly. Have where he's someone that listens to what
is said about him all the, time he knows what has.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Said he.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Disagreed you saw it during during the. Playoffs, oh people say,
this and they say, this and they say. This his
game is all about confidence and there's games where he
doesn't show up.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
For so what were? They what were The pacers worried?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
ABOUT i am sure coming off that horrible game for,
boy we can't afford another bad game like this For Tyrese.
Haliburton how do we defend?
Speaker 3 (05:40):
It?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Oh the next day From shams run next, day, boom
we get The we get the. Report, HEY mri coming
dealing with a strain cap right away early in the.
Morning hey dealing with a strain Caf, oh, okay, Okay.
Mri M mariah is. Fine he practiced. Yesterday, uh he's playing.
Tonight he looks. Fine halliburton tonight for The pacers has
two points and four. Assists we were fed that injury
(06:04):
simply to put take the pressure off of. Him so
for two. Days, haliburton who was someone who listens to
what is said about again all the, time he's someone
that needs that level of. Confidence and The pacers, Decided i'm, sure,
hey we're gonna give. Him we're gonna Help matt a
little bit here by getting this out there because that
will hopefully stem the criticism of him and the bad.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Game, well you can't rip. Him he he's he's.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Hurt he's played thirty four, minutes he played in game
five thirty four, minutes he played perpetrated eighteen, minutes and
he said he's had tonight so. FAR i told you
this is what it. Was this is what it. Was
he's gonna play in game. Six he's, fine he's moving.
Fine this was simply done to give him a. Bailout
so it wasn't two days Of, Wow halliburton's terrible and
(06:47):
how does he deal with? This they wanted to find
a way to make an excuse for him so he
could come back and and everybody and all the critics
would back off, him so you wouldn't see as much
criticism of him when you WATCHED espn Or fox or
tuned in and Watch colin in the morning Or dan
or whatever it. Was you wanted to make sure that
that was that was not gonna be a thing that
affected him going into this. Game and congratulations because it's
(07:08):
worked and the paces are up by twenty two as
we start the second.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Half that's why we have to talk things into. EXISTENCE i,
mean that's what we do. HERE i mean it is
a day for doing. That Uh so we we were
watching this. SQUAD i, NEED i need the thunder to
give some sort of effort, though because otherwise what AM
i gonna?
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Watch? MAN i had to watch The dodgers And padres
and hope we Got we Got.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Padres we're gonna Have Kaitlin clark in a few. Minutes
we GOT usmnt the second half in a scoreless game
Against Saudi.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Arabia got a half assed through that first first. Half
how many water breaks did we? Get did we get
some orange? Slices while we were it was like.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
It was youth soccer because of the weather In atlanta
that there were a lot of there. There there was
a couple of.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Em all, right stop the, game he needs.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Help we're gonna. Indoors uh, No well it's still, hot is, it?
Tott it's still, hot extra water, breaks it's still if it's,
indoors it's always sixty, eight it's still it's.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Still always sunny In.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
Philadelphia but With, helibert and it was funny because earlier
today it became the, well you, know if it was
any other kind of time of, year he wouldn't. Go
but this is a multi week. Injury but if he can,
walk he's gonna. Play it's like it's a multi week.
Injury he's in a he's in a surgical unit having
that work done right, now he's not playing in AN nba,
(08:24):
game and certainly not to the level of minutes to
the effort just a couple of days later from the
no show effort we saw In game.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Five so good godspeed for THE.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Nba it's also good news because it looks like they
get Their game. Seven So Adam silver wins. Again he
gets The lakers sale yesterday and now you get, this
so extra bonus time for THE, nba which will take
us right up into the draft.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Talk, yeah, no it's.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
PERFECT i mean a couple of those guys might actually
show up for a workout that.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
They're supposed to.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Do, no, NO i know you need to show up
and say you don't want to work out for that,
team and the team still saying we're still thinking about drafting.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
OUT i think all those things could. HAPPEN i think
it's fine, now but, LOOK i mean when when you break.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Down The halliburton, STORY i, mean it sounds weird to
say that a team is making an excuse for a
guy so we could avoid. Criticism but that's exactly what
it looks, like, RIGHT i, mean, yeah multi week injury
during the regular hit really multi week, injury multi week.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Injury team do this all the. Time this one goes
rises above the. Level isn't that the language we use
on flagrant? Falls rise to the level of whatever term
you want to use to close that. Off but, yeah
he's flying around like he's in game one of a regular.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
SEASON i mean it TOOK i will say. This the
first couple of. Minutes it did look like. It it
did look like he was kind of a step, slow
AND i, thought, okay let's see how he's really affected,
Here but it more it just looks like he did
some time to get into the, game because you, know
he started out he missed a couple of shots. Early
he missed him, long you, know so it's not like
(10:00):
he was he was really, struggling so you know when
you miss your. Shots, Along, okay he's coming, out he's jacked,
up he's hyped. Up BUT i, thought, okay maybe a
little bit here in the beginning he's affected by. It
but now the way the game is, going it feels
like he just needed time to get, going because now.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
It looks he looks like he's had he needed to.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Rest playing kidding, now sometimes some guys get into games different,
ways And halliburton is no. Different where sometimes they can
dominate from the, start sometimes they need five minutes to
see how things are going to, go how he's going
to be defended and you and the. War the way
this game went, on it was, okay he just needed
a couple of minutes to get, going and now here
come the, Pacers and it clearly looks like this injury
(10:38):
was not that he's not, hurt Because i'm sure he,
is but this was overhyped because, Hey halliburton can't deal
with the criticism between. Games we need to have him
as confident as he can. Be so that's why we
have what we, have and that clearly looks like what it.
IS i can't fault a good strategy with most.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Things but in a sporting world where we talk about
betting lines and and that h tenuous relationship that we
have with all of, that the money as it flows
from betting syndicates and the advertising behind home plate or
or on the scoreboards or whatever, else injuries are something
you shouldn't be dancing with quite the same. Way egos
(11:18):
G i guess would be an extension of. That so
here we have what we do tonight plus twenty seven fourteen,
points four, assists couple of and a, rebound two steals For.
Haliburton tonight big. Effort, hey we get a game, seven
so everybody wins unless you get a furious. Comeback but
it doesn't look like the thunder are gonna mount much
of an effort in that.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Regard oh, no, no, no, no they're they're. Done they're
Not they're not gonna go Creg they're. Done twenty two
at a half. TIME tj McConnell is out Rebounding Isaiah hartenstein.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
UNDERNEATH i, mean come, on but he went Next. Dick
he remembered his.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Heritage WHEN i saw that play in the first, HALF i,
said this is the moment, where you, know the thunder of,
quit where it's the two of them battling for a
rebound and it looks like when when when you're battling
with your older brother who's like four years older than.
You he happens to be you, know when your brother
is six two and you're five to five and he's
just like grabbing the ball up and you're you're jumping
and trying to grab, it and and he's feeling real
(12:11):
lazy because he Knows i'm told me to get the
ball all the. Time except McConnell just wouldn't, stop wouldn't,
stop wouldn't, stop gets in the, spot was able to
jar the ball loose and grab the. Rebound that was
the MOMENT i knew the thunder. Done that they've put
this away For. Sunday the energizer bunny attitude of. McConnell
he's become a folk, Hero. Sonny that's, good so we
get a rise of a new hero in THESE Nba
(12:33):
finals but, yeah twenty four point, burial eight minutes remaining
in the. Third so this is where we sit right. Now,
again it is still a big. Burial looks like we're
headed To game. Seven if something big crazy, happens of,
course we'll keep you posted on.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
It but thunder one of sixteen from three point. Range it,
is it has.
Speaker 1 (12:54):

Right seventy, three forty, six now six minutes to go
in the third. Quarter he uh looks, like WE'RE i
feel pretty. Safe we're headed to get. SEVEN i feel
pretty good about.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
THAT i feel. CHEATED i feel pretty. Good why do
you feel? Cheated you didn't see this?
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Coming, no, no, no it's it's fine that The pacers.
Win the lack of, effort no, hustle no no. Drive
it was a three point.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Game after a. Quarter, yeah and then it was, like,
nah what are you gonna?
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Do It's game six of the. Finals, yeah but where's
your killer? Instant but, dude this is your let's. Battle
this is a final. Buzzer this, lord but, dude you've
seen AN nba. Game this is how it goes in the.
Playoffs teams give away. Games we don't feel we need
to go to the wall to try to Win game,
Six so we're gonna lose by twenty?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Five how many twenty five and thirty point burials over
the course of the. Playoffs that don't make sense unless
you realize teams are not teams are not going all
out to. Win they'll start the game and, say all,
right let's see how it. Goes maybe we get hot from,
three maybe somebody gets in foul, trouble but it doesn't
go that, way and the team in the middle of
the first half, decide, yeah not our, night probably not our.
(15:57):
Night let's put it, away let's get, ready let's not
really exert. Our we'll be ready for game. SEVEN i
get a game, TWO i get a. Game do you
got a chance to close things? Out?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah you, Go, ah what are you gonna? Do we're
not playing.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
GREAT i, Mean adam silver better had That richard gear
outfit on From chicago as he starts tap dancing singing
about how we got a game.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Seven, well this is, why and it won't.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Change but if you want something, great off off of
this with a with a thirty point burial here going.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
On this is.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Why THE nba playoff series at seven games are too.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Long they're too.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Long because this is generally what we get at least
one or two games in each in each, series wherever you're,
at is that one team, Decides, okay we've done it
and we're just gonna give this game.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Away.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Right if you had a five game, series you would
see a lot more attention to. Detail you wouldn't see
games like this each. Game the quality of it would
be terrific top to bottom because suddenly it's a shorter
series and we could show up and we can, lose
and what kind of advantage do we? Have you will
get the best basketball both teams have over that five game, series,
right game seven. Games but everything THE nba does is
(17:03):
too long. Too the regular season is too, Long the
playoffs are too. Long, no no season takes more to
finish their playoffs than THE nba. Does everything is too.
Long and but what you're talking about games like, Tonight,
yeah five games would be. Perfect five give me five
game playoff series they. Move it would be like pace
of play In Major League. Baseball he would, Say, wow,
(17:23):
look THESE nba playoffs are amazing all the. Way this
month and a half has been, fantastic hotly.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Contented did every game down to the?
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Wire and Instead i'm wondering what kind of thunder legends
we can trot out for the final.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Quarter it's not many thunder.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Legends i'm grasp you bring out all the other guys
to AN mvpkd comes, Out westbrook comes.

Crossbar hard, boy, hard all.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Right so in front Of franstance dial, miss in fronts
of friends and family In. Atlanta still zero zero The
United states And Saudi. Arabia so earlier, today big story
out of, baseball and now everybody's waiting for The dodgers'.
Response according to multiple, Reports ice went To Dodger, stadium
tried to get Into Dodger. Stadium this is hours before
(26:19):
the game tonight against The, padres and The dodgers denied them.
Admission now there's been you, know both sides saying, Listen
ice tried to. Come you, know we know it's been
going on IN la with the immigration. Raids over the
course of the past couple of weeks and across the,
country and The dodgers say this happened earlier in the,
day we wouldn't let them. In there have been some
statements that, no, no it Wasn't ice that was. There
(26:41):
no one was there for to try to get Into Dodger.
Stadium so there's been a big back and forth on
what this actually. Was but there's no doubt that something
happened at the stadium today and The dodgers are set
to announce initiatives that are going to go on to
help what's going on In Los angeles right now with
the immigration raids and the Big while we're waiting for
(27:01):
The dodgers to to have their big, STATEMENT i want
to say this because it feels like The dodgers they
needed my pr advice right BECAUSE i. Don't because, clearly
with what's going on IN la the last couple of,
weeks The dodgers want to.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Stay out of. It AND i get. IT i get
not wanting to be a.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
TARGET i get not wanting to be, involved AND i, Understand,
hey this is our baseball. Team we want to, play
we want to we want to say. IT i UNDER
i understand, that but at some point in some, meeting
LIKE i would have stood up and, Said, okay do
you really think you're not going to get pulled into?
This do you really think you're gonna be able to
stay out of? This you are the biggest sport going
(27:38):
on right. Now games are At Dodger stadium all the.
Time you have the Biggest latino fan base of any
team in the, country and and they want to see
what you're going to say about what's happening right. Now,
look we had the the anthem controversy over the, weekend
uh with which really blew, up and that everybody was
waiting for The dodgers to have some sort of UH
(27:59):
a statement over. That now this is really you, know
pushed that to the back.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Burner, well you take it one step, further go back
when they visited The White. House remember that was the
day of The Jackie robinson page got pulled. Down all
of those, bios, yeah got pulled, out and there was
no statement or response to that at the.
Speaker 7 (28:14):
Time.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Yeah so WHAT i would say is this is that
and it feels like The dodgers are kind of playing
ketchup on this and and things are moving really. Fast
they need to have some sort of statement and say.
Something and now they're pushed into it with what went
on today At Dodger. Stadium but the whole time IS
i would, say you're not going to be able to avoid.
This you're gonna get pulled. Into The dodgers are the
(28:35):
biggest thing In Los, angeles, right so of course you're
going to get pulled in, Somehow LIKE i would have
known it would be something involving the anthem and now
you know ice raids where potentially they were trying to
get into the To Dodger. Stadium but you know you're
gonna get pulled. In you can't just, say, okay we're good,
stuff we're staying. Out we're staying.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Out.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Now people want to see what your position is going to.
Be and, now instead of being able to have plans
about that for a couple of weeks or a week or,
two say, okay when this, happens this is what's going,
on because you see there's lots of. Stuff there's lots
of stuff going On latino. Community they want to see
what is, said what The dodgers, say and everybody's anxious
waiting for their, statement like you could have been ahead
(29:16):
of the, game because you have to understand that you're
going to get pulled into, this right you're going to
become one of the big touchstones of what's. Happening and
to think that you were going to stay out of,
it that's just really naive because this is how the
world works. Now and The Dodge, again if The lakers were,
playing The lakers would be involved to but The dodgers
the biggest thing happening IN la selling out every single. Night,
(29:37):
right they already passed over two million in, attendance the
EARLIEST i think IN mlb in the last twenty years
and In Major League. Baseball so you, know seeing, THIS i, Say,
okay you really needed to have something readier or not
at least make, it make it to the point where
you are coming at it from a position of a. Disadvantage,
(29:58):
okay well this, happened and now we have to. Respond
now what are we going to? Say whereas you needed
to know going in this is eventually there's an inevitability
that that you're going to be involved in, this and
you have to have something, ready and now instead it's,
okay now we're now we're reacting to.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
It, well when you look at the scope of it
throughout the, city and there's been efforts on all sides
to kind of, minimize you, know how much of the
the city has been, effected but certainly Near Dodger, STADIUM,
uh in that region of the, city it certainly has
has had its its. Instances and we've seen it on
(30:34):
national television for, Sure, dodgers and given the base that
you have, here as you stated In Los, angeles that
you've got a lot of concerned, parties people that work
at the, stadium around the, STADIUM, uh and certainly your
patrons that you're trying to make sure everybody's safe as
much as anything. Else, Right, so The dodgers posted this
(30:57):
is from seven hours. Ago this, MORNING ice agents came
To Dodger state in request and permission to access the parking.
Lots they were denied entry to the grounds by the.
Organization tonight's game will be played a schedule that has
been viewed over twenty five million times as of. NOW
i think to some, degree as an, organization you're hoping
that your civic leaders and the federal government are able
(31:17):
to come to some level of an agreement on how
things would.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Proceed so maybe as an.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Organization you, said let's let the elected officials handle, that
but it's clear after several weeks nothing's going on.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
There, yeah so.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
You're standing back and perhaps asking for Guidance like that's
the second part of, this of, all, right how do
you want us to? Proceed what's our level of involvement
until it shows up at the?
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Stadium?
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Right you can talk about taking an active position one
way or. Another here it was it showed up on your.
Grounds so now you're part of an active. Exercise but
you're still trying to make sure you're heping people, safe,
uh and maintaining some level of of your organization's sense
(32:08):
of where you're at in the, community but recognizing that
you have federal agencies.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
INVOLVED i think you're trying not to overstep in some. Ways. Yeah,
No LIKE i, SAID i get THE i get the.
ONE i get the philosophy.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
Of of Of, okay we don't want to become a, target,
right The dodgers don't want to become a touchstone for.
This they don't want to become, Okay and now now
the focus on The dodgers and what they're saying or not.
Saying SO i get that part of. It but you
still have to know. That, okay we can't avoid, It,
like that's not something we're gonna be able to.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Avoid we're The, dodgers right that this IS i, mean
where the this is the.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Number this is the most popular team in the. City
they're more popular than The lakers and more popular than THE,
usc more popul than THE. Ucla they're every third person
wears A dodgers hat or A DODGERS t shirt. Something
The dodgers are the biggest thing in the. City so,
yeah when the biggest, thing most high profile thing is,
that of course that's gonna. Happen of course that's going
to be a part of.
Speaker 7 (33:01):
It.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Right you could say you want to avoid a we want,
to we want to we want to tread, carefully BUT i, mean,
really you're naive if you think we're going to not
be in. IT i, mean, yeah it's, Okay so let's
have this ready when it does, happen so we can
adjust to however it.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Goes, yeah at this, POINT i want to see what
the statement is because allegedly we were going to see
it today that didn't, happen and now it's. Indefinite before you,
DO i don't know what the substance is for ALL i,
know they're going to put out a ten page memorandum
that they've had meetings for two weeks that you know
there were contingency plans and things kept. Changing as as we,
(33:34):
know things have changed here repeatedly with curfews and curfew,
hours and businesses and and engagements across the city shut
down at times that people are, reacting and The dodgers among.
Them when you're talking about fifty three thousand people packing
a stadium for these these, games you know you're trying
to rely on the guidance of your your law enforce
(33:56):
enforcement agencies to a, degree and you certainly need to
keep your relations with them intact as. Well ready for

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Them Uh so this happened about a month, ago but
video of it just came. Out now you wonder how
many people are trying to keep video of this from
from getting. Out but maybe you saw this earlier today
where Former superstar running Back Adrian peterson got involved in
a fist fight at a social club In houston at
(36:22):
the end Of may over a hand of. POKER a
SOCIAL a social club that's like the the after dinner supper.
Club it's a supper. Club supper clubs are open until
four in the, morning but supper is like at six. O'clock,
YEAH i, know just go with. It so you know
this social, club which is basically a big room where
people are, gambling, right that's that's. Yeah so you see
the video that that that's from far away That i'm
(36:44):
sure someone was taking.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Video, Hey Adrian peterson is.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Playing things are getting needed over at that table Where
peterson gets up and starts fighting with another guy at
the table and the fight ranges all. Over it was
like a fight in A marvel movie like this ranges
from the from the table all the way to the.
Side him and the guy are throwing punches at each.
Other it all stemmed over a dispute over the. Hand
(37:06):
we don't know what exactly was at, issue but it
was a dispute over a hand of. Poker peterson, SAYS
i regret the. Incident the. Guy he AND i are like.
Brothers we, disagreed you, know we got physical and now it's.
Over oh, Yeah because people THAT i like, with THAT
i hang out, WITH i always want to fight them
after a hand of. Poker oh, yeah, yeah you're my best.
Friend let's, go let's. GO i saw you pull that
(37:28):
eight of spades out from under your.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
Sleeve let me.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
Go BUT i had that every once in a, while
a little bit of a dust up of, uh you,
know where you get a little bit, frustrated you've gone,
cold and now you imagine things in your. Head the
whole Time i'm watching this play, Out it's like that
scene In Spider man where Stan lee's working in the
library and you get the classical music going as the
(37:52):
fight goes.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
On bey on.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
THEM i will say, this the guy that he was
fighting pretty good on his. Feet Because peterson goes to
land a couple of. Haymakers, yeah doesn't come, close, no, no,
no but he has a big. Reach he's bigger than the.
Guy i'm, like, wow this.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
Reach that guy still was able to evade.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Him, yeah well he was still the whole reason the fight,
ranged because the guy was like backing, up throwing a,
punch backing, up throwing a, punch backing.
Speaker 3 (38:12):
Up like that's why the fight. Moved he can't. Fault
that's a good. Strategy.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Yeah well, yeah if you're a. Chase i've shaken hands
With Adrian. Peterson he's got a bit of a. Grip
he's got a bit of a grip.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
On he didn't hate you as much As Charles woodson
or some of your other. Nemeses but that was always
his thing was to get that strong.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
Hands, yeah that's been his. THING i was, like, WOW
i remember he.
Speaker 4 (38:33):
Did he did that at a rookie EVENT i went,
to AND i was, like what are we trying to prove?
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Here all, right, nuts he'd like to shake hands really?
Strong get how strong my grip?
Speaker 1 (38:41):
IS i, MEAN i don't, know like WHAT I i
just keep thinking the scene From airplane when the girl
scouts catch each other cheating at cards and they, start you,
know punching each, other and they pull out the knives
and they brawl with each, other all going on outside
the dance. Floor i've never been that upset with somebody
over a hand of poker in a social, club especially
WHERE i felt LIKE i want to fight the other.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
Person these guys aren't dressed nearly well.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Enough this is, yeah this is, like this is like
so very a very casual social. Club like IT'S t
shirt and shorts social. Club oh, okay that's that's not
this is NOT i start asking. Questions is lealities and
this is Not James bond where they're playing bat and
it's a million dollars a.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
Hand oh, yes well, played, Doctor, no well. Played no
one's there petting a white, cat Sister. Bond, yeah none
of that is. Happening but yet here's a. Fistfight And
i've had, Games i've, PLAYED i played card. GAMES i
still remember. This WHY i was thinking about this. Today
there was one time my best friend AND i In.
Syracuse we we're at a bar hanging, out and these
guys we're talking about playing, pitch which is. A it's
(39:43):
a it's a trump based.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Game pitch is, awesome and so, uh these, guys like
we're talking, about, yeah you guys want to, play and
these two guys who are obviously best, friends we play
against them and they're just destroying. Us AND i know they're.
CHEATING i just can't prove it because certain things are
happening with their bidding WHERE i, know you know what
the other person, has and they're beating us like three
and we're not playing for money or.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
Anything where's like they're.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
Playing they're playing with like a twin language where you
can't understand what that code.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Is and at one point the, guys the guys are,
like the one guy, says what's? Wrong, NO i JUST
i know you guys are, cheating AND i just can't tell.
How BUT i know you guys are. Cheating what do
you mean we're? Cheating you're Not you're not bidding four
when you don't know if the jack is. Out you're
not bidding four on that unless you know your partner
has the. Jack which guy Was Edward Norton and THEN
i caught. Him and THEN i caught, HIM i was like,
(40:29):
okay and then it took me BECAUSE i really wanted
to do, it AND i Want i'm, like, okay AND
i caught.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
IT i, said, right we're not, playing we're. Done and
we walked away AND i don't know if they want to.
Fight i'm just.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
DONE i called them because this was one of. Them
would you would hold their cards with a certain number
of fingers depending on what suit they, wanted like if
they were holding it with what their four finger with,
spades two fingers with. Diamonds SO i, said, oh so
it's the fingers is how you're doing? It BECAUSE i
saw you you're holding your your cards.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
Differently, no, no not doing. It i'm not doing. IT i,

cheat to do.

This we're just why do we even? Know you're just hanging?
Out BUT i, mean you have.
Speaker 4 (41:05):

I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
