I'm gonna tell you it's in two weeks. It's January sixteenth.
I just talk about my time to prep I am
the point zero zero one percent. Yeah, that does not
stop talking about their no, and then.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
He'll tell us about his half birthday.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Yep, July sixteenth, that's when it is. The road to
Milan runs through Saint Louis. Ce Elia Mallan and Alyssa
lou and Amber Glen compete at the twenty twenty six
priviag In US Figure Skating Championships January seventh through the eleventh.
That ends five days before my birthday. B there is
the twenty twenty sixth US Olympic Figure Skating tea is
named live tickets at US figure Skating dot org. Birthdays
(03:04):
on a Friday this year, nine days after my birthday.
Monci Belanos is another year oldes this is true, It
is true, But she's Aquarius, right Aquarius, I am Capricorn.
So close birthdays not the same sign. It is also
(03:25):
two days from now, a new year, twenty twenty five.
We say goodbye hello twenty twenty six. And throughout the
year I've noticed this as well, and it's a way
of honoring great athletes, like we're honoring Lebron James today
on his birthday. We're honoring Tiger Woods who turns fifty.
(03:45):
I'm about to turn fifty in a little over a year.
So I'm a year younger than Tiger Woods, and it's
just really weird to know that Tiger Woods can play
champions that play PGA Tour Champions if he wants, it's
called the Champions Tour now PGA Tour Champions. But if
he wants, he could play in the US Senior Open,
if that's something that he would want to do, which
I think would be the second most popular golf tournament
(04:10):
of the year. If Tiger played in the US Senior Open,
I think only the Masters in April would maybe top
the popularity. I think we would just we would love
to see it. He still says that he's a ways
away from from trying to do anything, but Tiger still
moves the needle even if he's fifty years old. But
now he just gets a lot of AARP stuff in
the map.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Yeah, you took the words out of my mouth.
Speaker 9 (04:30):
It's crazy to say that Tiger Woods, after everything that
he's been through today, right now he moves the needle.
If he were to participate in any sort of event,
people would immediately try.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
To get tickets and go, Yes, it's crazy because I
would do.
Speaker 9 (04:44):
I'm thinking, I'm like, who is he's Okay, Scotti Scheffler, Yeah,
but it's still Tiger Woods.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
Like he's still the everyone who give me a golfer,
you know, Tiger Woods. That's the first answer. I think
people would say.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
The Scotti, Scheffler, Rory McElroy, and then people would start
to Then then you know what you would get. This
is what you get from the common people. You get
Jack Nicholas, Arnold Palmer, chi Chi Rodriguez. Like that's where
it would go. Like there's like for you know, everybody,
for some reason, everybody knows chi Chi Rodriguez. But that's
what you would get for people who don't know golf.
(05:15):
That's about as far down as you could go.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Tell you my girlfriends would give me Tiger Woods. Yep,
there's no way that they would know Scotti Scheffler's name.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
No, would they know Rory Mac or Rory Mac.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
There's no way.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Sure Tiger moves the it would be Tiger. Five years
ago at Fox Sports Radio, we did a ranking of
the top twenty athletes in the first twenty years of
essentially this century. But those are the first twenty years
of our network, which makes me think, now it's been
twenty five years for Fox Sports Radio. But we did
(05:48):
a top twenty countdown of the best best athletes of
those that previous twenty years. ESPN did one this summer
where they counted down the top five, the top one
hundred maybe athletes of the of the past quarter century.
Is how they did it. But this is where you
come into play eight seven seven nine nine on Fox
(06:09):
eight seven seven nine nine to six six y three six'.
Nine we want to hear from you the top athletes
that we've had over the last twenty five. Years And
i'm going to give you the top three athletes that
we had in our top twenty five months, ago, yes
five years, ago number. Three and this was an exercise
(06:29):
where all members Of Fox Sports radio submitted a ballot
with a variety of. NAMES i think there were maybe
seventy names on the, list maybe fifty names on the,
list and you ranked your top. Twenty the top three
broke down To Tiger woods number, Three Lebron james number,
two And Tom brady was voted number. One is the
(06:50):
top athlete at that point of the first twenty years
Of Fox Sports radio from two thousand to twenty. Twenty
so now here we are at twenty twenty five who
is added to their legacy over the last five, years
who could be a part of this. Conversation i'm not
going to release the whole list BECAUSE i think there
are names that people will want to bring up totally
(07:12):
and we'll see if they hit our list of twenty
or if they should be included in our twenty or
top twenty. Five but when you look back at the
last twenty five, Years, manzi is there an athlete that
stands out to you that you think of that STOOD
i guess the test of time for what they accomplished
over the last twenty or twenty five years or.
Speaker 9 (07:32):
So besides those, three BECAUSE i think they could make
a list even.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
Today, Right, Yes i'm gonna throw In Steph.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Curry Steph, Curry.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Steph CURRY i think still moves the. Needle that.
Speaker 9 (07:43):
Dude watching that guy. Play, Now, lebron you're forty one
and what you're doing is, Incredible it's.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
True But Steph.
Speaker 9 (07:47):
Curry is right alongside you carrying The warriors offense, literally you,
Know SO i would say.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
He right now has to Be Steph curry on this
list was at sixteen five years, Ago, yes five years,
ago he was, Sixteen so he's added a championship since,
then so that would be so he got his fourth
between now and. Then and, Yeah i'll be curious to
see on where he moves, out BUT i think That's
Steph curry is A.
Speaker 7 (08:13):
But he literally changed a. SPORT i don't think basketball
is the same now before it, was say in twenty.
Sixteen just watching the, sport one player changed the way
everything is played. NOW i don't think you could say
that about a lot of. Athletes Like lebron was amazingly,
great and he almost lived up to the, hype which
(08:34):
seemingly was impossible coming out of high, school but he
didn't necessarily change the way a sport was. PLAYED i
would Give Steph curry the, credit maybe even Over lebron
in the last twenty five.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
Years you, Know i'm not against that at all BECAUSE
i agree with what you're. Saying and if you Watch
Steph curry right, now he is still creating his own
offense by running. Around he doesn't just stand in one
spot because he's tired and old or, whatever you know
WHAT i. Mean, like he's actually still running up and
down trying to avoid the defender get.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Open so, yes he's still doing.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
IT i and and the thing THAT i would, say
AND i Know isaac seems like he Want, isaac you
want to in first, man you, good come on.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
IN i feel that particularly from then twenty twenty until,
now a guy who has rocketed up on that list
from twenty twenty to twenty twenty five Show Hey.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Otani, okay So otani would be.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Including no, doubt no doubt for.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Sure and he hasn't changed the game yet because people
aren't hitting and pitching, again but he's been the only, one,
right you. Know the, THING i think That otani definitely
would have been, included especially now with The World championships
The dodgers have five years ago not on the. LIST
i don't even think he was as a nominee at that,
point but now now definitely would be. Included at that.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
Point do you, remember just off the top of your,
head Was Mike trout on that list at the.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
TIME i think he was a?
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Nominee, yeah is at the time that would make sense, right,
yes THE, MVPs, yes and he.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Was.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Yeah Also Patrick mahomes because mahomes First Super bowl victory
was in the twenty nineteen twenty nineteen season into twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Yeah he. Could he would have been, Added but it's
when when you hear some of the, names there's there's
certain lines that are. Drawn and that's why The otani
one is interesting because of the baseball players that weren't
included or were included on our. List BUT i want
to say something about This Steph curry conversation BECAUSE i
(10:31):
think that There's steph, is no doubt the greatest shooter
that we have. Seen he wasn't the only shooter on
At golden At Golden, state he was the best of the.
Best how much does the game in analytics and how
you look at the three point shot and the value
(10:52):
of it, change because that's WHAT i also think has.
Changed that there was a there was a long time
in the end were mid range. Jumpers guys would make
careers on. That a mid range jumper now is blasphemy
in basketball because of the value of the percentage of
the shot compared to your. Point so there's no doubt
(11:14):
That Steph curry is the greatest shooter that we've ever
seen in THE. Mba there's no comparison whatsoever is it
Because Steph curry shot at such a high percentage that
then opened up the world to, Realize, okay this is
a better percentage because he's so good at. It But
Klay thompson was doing the, Same The warriors were doing the.
(11:35):
Same other teams are following now shooting fifty sixty, Threes
like there's no great shooter Like Steph curry on The Boston,
celtics but that's how they. Play so that would be my,
question is the game? Changed have we looked at it
so in an analytics world it has Allowed Steph curry
to thrive or Did Steph curry bring that culture in
that now makes us look at the three as a
(11:58):
completely different weapon and the basis of.
Speaker 9 (12:00):
BASKETBALL i think he was the start of looking at
it analytically and the benefit of being able to consistently
shoot a. Three and it's because of how he shot, it,
right he was taking ridiculous. THREES i, Know Klay Thompson's
Klay thompson's splash. Brothers they both were. Awesome but the
way maybe Because steph looks so much, Smaller maybe because
of him constantly like avoiding the defender coming off a
(12:23):
screen and doing a quick.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Shot that's like how did he even get it?
Speaker 9 (12:26):
Off you, know like all of, that BUT i think
he was the driving force as to how we look at.
IT i do think it was, him and maybe you're
right that it was always going to happen, Naturally, yeah
but HE i do think maybe sped it.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Up, YEAH i think. SO i think. THAT i think.
THAT i so WHEN i look At steph BECAUSE i
want to bring in his personal accomplishments as, well BECAUSE
i don't What i'm trying not to do is diminish
You Steph courrey as as a player by saying like
this is just the, game like he has this moment
(13:01):
like the twenty twenty Four olympics actually ends up being
his moment because it isn't within The, warriors like The warriors,
system you, know during their early years it's like lay
up in threes like that's what they that's what they.
Had SO i think that he was a part of
it and shooting it at like that at the clip
that he. Did but, yeah guys Like Kyle korver who
(13:22):
still would shoot.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Fifty, no it was not the same though it.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Was it. Wasn't, Yeah and that's and that's why it's
different With curry BECAUSE i think of how the all
around player that he was so we do have some
callers coming.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
In jason are gonna let it. Do it's just lighting.
UP i know people are putting away they Are christmas
trees this, week but this the phone bank is lighting
up like A christmas. Tree, well thank, you thank you
for joining that that. METAPHOR i gave that a lot of.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Laughter thank. You brian In.
Speaker 7 (13:52):
Pennsylvania, brian you're up. First what's going?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
On?
Speaker 10 (13:55):
Brian not too much on my way to?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Work all, Right, well kudos you for going to. Work
what what nominee do you want to put for top
athlete in the last twenty five.
Speaker 11 (14:04):
YEARS i want to Put Michael, vick and not for
all the good, things but also the band awareness he.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
WAS i, mean he's a what could have been right
and he has turned his life around now a college
football head. Coach there are people to this day who
don't want anything to do With Michael vick because of
what went. On so it's AN i don't think you
would have cracked the top twenty. ATHLETES i think his
athletic ability was off the, Charts BUT i don't know
(14:33):
if he's going to make the top twenty who once we.
GOT i think he's referring to the turnaround. Stories, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
Time, yeah AND i think people look at that whole,
world awful dogfighting, world in a different. View, Anyways eric And.
Iowa you're up. Next, eric you're, There.
Speaker 10 (14:51):
Yeah i'm.
Speaker 12 (14:51):
Here thanks for taking my.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Call what's? Up? Eric who you? Got?
Speaker 12 (14:54):
Yeah i'm going to vote For christian.
Speaker 10 (14:56):
McCaffrey and it's a close one With Davante. ADAMS i think.
Speaker 12 (15:00):
This season spolidified those two as, candidates BUT i Think
christian McCaffrey takes it over.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Us christian McCaffrey is a dual threat in the running
and receiving threat that he was absolutely who.
Speaker 9 (15:13):
ELSE i feel like people have he became like a
hybrid player and NOW i see it more and.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
More, Yes but CAN i tell you this of The
top twenty that we had five years? Ago remember in
the first twenty years we had two football players on
the list two.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
And Then Tom brady was one of.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Them And Tom brady was one of, Them so they
don't want to. It so Does christian McCaffrey rise to that?
Level would he be an added if we expanded it
to a twenty? Five i'm not necessarily sure that's the.
Speaker 9 (15:41):
Case, YEAH i DON'T i understand right this, year, RIGHT
i was gonna, say because in the last couple of,
years not just this, year but in the last four
or five, Years christian McCaffrey ever, SINCE i feel like
he got to the forty nine, ers he's, had you, know, success,
success AND i don't know if people.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Expected it because of the injuries and what he had
prior to getting.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
THERE i Think mahomes would make this. LIST i think
the nominee Of mahomes bringing him up would make this.
List and if we expanded it to twenty, FIVE i
think it's a no. Brainer, YEAH i think it's an
absolute no. Brainer AND i.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Mentioned one thing about the McCaffrey, thing and it's gonna
be an uncomfortable, point BUT i know a lot of
attention over the last quarter century has been on the black,
quarterback and deservedly. So But christian McCaffrey thriving at that,
position and we could all admit it's not a position
that white players have thrived. At maybe kind of puts
(16:32):
them up at a different. LEVEL i don't. Know but,
anyways how About mike And. Illinois, mike who's your top
athlete of the last quarter?
Speaker 12 (16:40):
CENTURY i don't even think it's A it's first is.
OBVIOUS i don't even think there's a closed. Second how
can it be anybody other Than Usain? Bolt An't golden,
medals still holds the world record in the hundred two
hundred and four by. One anybody that doesn't think It's Usaint.
(17:02):
BOLT i got to debate, Them.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Well you're gonna be, debating and the reason being IS
i don't even THINK i can make him feel good on.
This It's mike And illinois that who it. Is Usain
bolt came in seventh in our list in twenty, twenty
so there were six athletes ahead Of Usain bolt at that.
Time so that was So Usain bolt didn't make our top.
Five he was on the, list he was top, ten
(17:27):
he was.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Seven by the, way that was the only Time usain
both has ever finished seventh in. Anything but you, Know
mike raises a really interesting point BECAUSE i think you
can lump a couple of other individuals in that sort
of Realm Michael, phelps, Right Serena, Williams, Novak, Djokovic Lionel.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
MESSI i was gonna say Among olympians, Like i'm not
even maybe this is me going to The american a
little bit more Than Usain. Bolt but like just in
this few sphere Of, Olympics i'd Have phelps Above Usain bolt, pertionally.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
But Michael phelps was fourth on this list on the
other side Of Tiger. Woods so that's Where Michael phelps
was in Our Fox Sports radio list five years. Ago,
NOW i in looking, BACK i can't remember on If
phelps swim in twenty twenty. ONE i don't think he
did In, tokyo but he didn't swim in twenty twenty,
(18:22):
four so there would be no adding to his legend
at this. Point but the hey is in the barn
and his resume speaks for himself as An.
Speaker 9 (18:31):
Olympian since we're on The, olympia BECAUSE i just wanted.
It when was the last Time Usain bolt? COMPETED i
think is what the internet is telling, me was twenty.
Seventeen was the last time he? Competed if we're talking About,
olympians isn't it Not Simone?
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Biles, yes, yes, oh, yes she's absol there.
Speaker 9 (18:45):
Because she's current and like not That Usain bolt Or
Michael phelps would not make some sort of, List like,
yes they'll make a, list just this one in Particular top.
Twenty when it's other sports. INCLUDED i don't know if
they would they wouldn't make a of course it.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Would So Simone biles had the twisties. INCIDENT i believe
that was in twenty twenty one In tokyo comes. Back
she competed in twenty twenty four In. Paris she was
fourteenth on the, list so she would have maybe have
raised up and. Higher she was fourteen on our list
at the, time so she would have had room to.
(19:20):
Grow let's take a couple of more. Calls we'll take
a time. Out we'll take some on the other side as.
Well there have been some names that have made the.
RANKINGS i don't want to completely clutter, it but when
we do have a name pop out that makes our,
Rankings i'll make sure to note of.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
It who do we? Else who else do we? Have
Jason Patrick? Illinois Patrick, illinois.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
All, Right illinois state to be? Today what's going?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
On?
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Patrick who you got?
Speaker 10 (19:42):
Well based not only on athletic, ability but the fact
that she brought relevance to a quote unquote irrelevant. Sport
i've got to go With Caitlyn.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
Clark, absolutely that's a good.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
One she would be in the Top she would make
the top twenty five Ath she.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
Would make the top twenty.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
Five she didn't play at all last.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
Year, yeah it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Matter this is, again this IS i AND i And.
PATRICK i think's point is the, popularity and he's, Right, yeah.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
It's more more Than Aaron judge for sure.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
When waiting for The Aaron judge call to come in
to see but you would you would put her as
a top twenty five athlete Of and we're talking about
we just, had was It mike And illinois talk About
Usain bolt to talk about his. Accomplishments and it's not
meant to Disrespect Caitlin clark with the, accomplishments but the
(20:40):
encourt like we are talking about athletes that have Have
she shoots long, threes, right.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
But she she is that popular for.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
HER i know she.
Speaker 5 (20:49):
OFTEN i do think she would crack the top twenty.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Five part of it is not just the athletic, achievements though,
significant it's also the, notoriety which is less about the
athlete themselves than the sports media culture that takes them
to another level of.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Notoriety AND i think that sports media culture informs this
even with her being out for a year or, Whatever
we've kind of hit a Where's poocy moment with her
where it's just Where's Caitlin? Clark when Is Caitlyn clark?
Back What? Like why Isn't Caitlyn clark here featured on
this or the other? Thing there's a whole storm around
wanting More Caitlyn. Clark Who's? POOCHY i have no idea
(21:32):
The simpsons. REFERENCE i Know sam's not, here so that's
the only. ONE i think that none of you Know simpson's.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
References, OKAY i do bet not that, one at Least.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Poochy i'm a little lost On. POOCHY i died on
his way back to his home. Plan i'm looking at
Just i'm just looking at the list of accomplished, athletes
and there are Enorm this list.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
Is not, SORRY i don't mean to cut you.
Speaker 9 (21:57):
Off you want to change it from not the most
influential as fleets of twenty for the last twenty five,
years you want the most accomplished because that is.
Speaker 7 (22:04):
Different totally, different and you know the language has kind of.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Changed no, One, NO i just never said, influential no.
INCORPORATION i actually said, consequential you.
Speaker 9 (22:16):
Said BUT i incorporated all that into, it, accomplishments influence
and WHAT.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
I, like put it all.
Speaker 9 (22:21):
Together, sure but if you're, right like it would change
is if we're looking at some BUT i was looking
at it like the whole.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Thing, sure, yeah this is this is also it would
be a three year, window a four year window right
the last two years At Iowa national championship. Teams AND
i know that there was stuff building up to that,
point but in terms of the pure, craze it's been
the last four. Years, yeah so four of the twenty
five years sufficient enough to top to.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Crack the top twenty. Five, Yes Fox.
Speaker 8 (22:51):

Speaker 9 (23:52):
Yours so damn let's get right into. It BECAUSE i
woke up to someone tweeting at. Us jason was part
of the tweet as. Well it came From John, grace
who also Included cavino And rich for this And danny G,
yes so all of us were included in. This And
John grace just kind of retweeted a post of A nba,
(24:15):
fan specifically A pistons fan who went to the Recent
Clippers pistons game and purchased floor seats on the side
of the wall where The clippers since opening the doors
into it, dome trying to create an atmosphere that is
their own, said we're going to have a wall a
(24:37):
side of the arena that is supposed to give you
a college atmosphere where college students go and cheer like
you see in you, know in college, games whether it's
football or.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Basketball from the, beginning this is something that they. ADVERTISED
i am A clippers.
Speaker 9 (24:52):
FAN i have been to several games At Into It,
dome AND i have sat on the side of the
wall zero. Times because you have to be engaged and
you got to be like a fan and doing it
the whole.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Way and it's all That i'm not a.
Speaker 9 (25:02):
FAN i just sometimes want to just sit and sit
on my beer and watch and chill. Out and you
have to be on, it you, know like you're there
when they're shooting free throws and they give you props
so that you are engaged and you are a part of.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
This and so when they show you on, screen you
can see the.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
Wall it is called the. Wall it is from top to.
Bottom when you purchase a, ticket it says.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
You will be sitting on the.
Speaker 9 (25:21):
Wall that means you cannot wear opposing team's, gear you
cannot cheer for the opposing.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
Team you sit on the.
Speaker 9 (25:29):
Wall you are A clippers, fan and you have to
do it for the entire forty eight, minutes if not
more if there's. Overtime, apparently this gentleman bought floor seats
and was very upset, DISAPPOINTED i understandably so that he
couldn't show off His Grant Hill pistons jersey and cheer.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
For the team At into It.
Speaker 9 (25:49):
Dom and it's, caused you, know a discourse On TWITTER
x AND i looked through this guy's tweet and he
keeps he shows a picture because when when you sit
on the, WALL i guess if you maybe a take
off your shirt and you're showing that you are A pistons,
fan that's the team that they were. Playing they give
you a sheet or maybe it's on the seat when
you sit. Down i've never sat on the. Wall i'm
(26:10):
telling you, guys BECAUSE i don't want. To the pressure
of cheering for forty eight minutes is a. Lot they
give you a little note that says you are sitting
on the. Wall this is a responsibility for sitting on the.
Wall so he wasn't allowed to show his, jersey he
wasn't allowed to cheer for The. Pistons he was really
really mad and said that someone should have told, him
and he keeps putting screenshots of his. Ticket, well, yeah,
puppy on your, ticket it doesn't tell. You BUT i
(26:30):
know WHEN i buy tickets for something and it, says
you want this, seat there's an obstructive, view you want this.
Seat it doesn't come with This you want this, seat.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
It tells you when you purchase your.
Speaker 9 (26:39):
Tickets and SO i feel, like unfortunately for this, guy
you just didn't pay attention to what you.
Speaker 5 (26:44):
Purchased and it sucks that.
Speaker 9 (26:46):
You bought floor seats that are thousands of dollars and
you didn't sit at the top of the, wall which
is like twenty bucks to sit at the very.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
Top it really does. Suck but you just didn't know
what you were. Purchasing you did not cross your t's
and dot your.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
EYES i find it's so rich that a fan of
an opposing team In Los angeles now take out The
dodgers and take out The. Lakers but what happens at
so far when the forty Nine ers come to town
to face The, rams it's a faithful forty Nine er, takeover.
RIGHT i was surprised to see how Many chargers fans
(27:20):
compared to The texans fans there were at the game
that we went to On, saturday WHERE i, Listen i've
seen the. SCREENSHOTS i know When denver comes to, town
how much orange there. IS i know how much silver
and blacks in the. Crowd when The raiders come and
play The. Chargers there were a lot Of chargers fans.
There there weren't as Many texans fans, there AND i
think that was because of the new. Team, however when
(27:41):
you talk ABOUT nfl fan, bases people, say, Well charger
fans don't show up to the. Game so here you
have an organization a block away that is deciding to
take matters into their own hands to try to change
a narrative and give themselves home court, advantage and one
guy's upset because he can't show off His Grant hill.
Jersey like that's that's HOW i weigh.
Speaker 10 (28:02):
It.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Now there are a lot of different ways that you
can look at things and try to rationalize. THEM i
understand that you're, frustrated but it feels like he's going
out of his way to show that he was wronged
in a situation that if you're outside of A pistons,
FAN i don't know how many people are actually going
to side with this.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
GUY i don't.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Either his whole point is that he should have been
told these tickets said nothing of this on. Them, yeah
once you got your, ticket it doesn't say it on,
That but when you purchase your ticket one hundred, percent
it tells you you you also pick. Tickets, guys the
side of the wall is more, expensive, Said i've looked and.
Compared the very very top may be the same if you,
(28:45):
sit you, know like the three hundred, section BUT i
like to sit in like.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
The middle of the.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Bowl sitting on the wall in the middle is more
expensive than me sitting on the opposite. Side i've looked into,
it so another reason WHY i haven't sat on the.
Wall so it's just kind of LIKE i spend one
hundred bucks on seats for, anything whether it's a, concert
for this That i'm gonna triple check exactly What i'm.
Purchasing you just purchase seats that were thousands of dollars
and you did Not you did not pay attention to
(29:09):
what you.
Speaker 5 (29:09):
Purchased i'm. Sorry you have no excuse the Whole they
should have told. Me, No i'm sure they.
Speaker 9 (29:14):
Did i'm sure maybe even in your email confirmation from The,
clippers it probably said, It, hey, welcome get.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
Excited you're coming to into It dome and you're going
to be a part of the.
Speaker 9 (29:24):
WALL i can already see that email because let me
tell you what we send for The dodgers when you purchase.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
A tour, ticket all of the things that you need
to know for what you just.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
PURCHASED i am looking at into a dome right now
trying to see if on a secondary market we could
get any information that this is the wall or not the.
Wall and So i'm not sure in exactly the full
map of, It, monty But i've clicked on both sides
and there was never a point where it says you
are in the.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
Wall on the.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
On the on the on the on this just on Stub.
HUB i went to both sides of the.
Speaker 9 (29:59):
Court and because other people just show this guy like
pictures of third party where it's at.
Speaker 5 (30:03):
The, wall this is the. Row, this you know What i'm.
Saying so let me let me see.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
The point THAT i look at it is the? Wall
is there for a? Reason AND i go to college.
Basketball in college, basketball if you ever watch a college basketball,
game you follow college, basketball you know. This isaac knows.
This when you jump have a jump ball at the
start of the game for the first, half you are
going towards the other team's.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
Bench, okay so, See i'm pretty sure that tw is the?
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Wall is that what it? Says Ok, oh, yeah sure
enough the? Wall, yes click down and here all. Right
the point That i'm going to make about the college
basketball thing is in the second, half you are usually
going offensively on the side of your. Bench your coach
can yell out the offensive calls at that. Point, however
(30:52):
that is also where student sections are because you want
them to miss those free throws in the final. Minutes
you want to distract. Them so the student section is
normally by a. Bench so this Isn't this isn't anything
new for a fan. Base and the REASON i bring
this up is BECAUSE i thought to, myself If i'm a,
(31:13):
fan and in this, case the guy was A pistons,
fan If i'm A pistons, FAN i want to sit
by my, team the team THAT i like and the
players THAT i want to. See so that all makes.
Sense but that also happens to be the wall area
where you would want them to end up missing free.
Throws now THE, nba it's actually. Different that doesn't go
with the way the college game. Is there's a different
(31:35):
way of deciding on which way you go at which.
End but still the wall is at the bench side
of the opposing. Team so maybe if there's ways where
the wall can heckle the opposing, bench the opposing bench
is right, there and getting that all makes. SENSE i
really feel he's blowing out of proportion the fact that
he can't show off His Grant hill jersey more than anything,
(31:59):
else because he still get the full, experience the cheering
up and. DOWN i hate. IT i can't stand it
when opposing fans are loud and obnoxious in road venues
because they have this me against the world sort of.
Thinking it's fine if you want to slap a high
five to another fan or another group of fans around,
(32:19):
you but the, loud obnoxious, type which IS i think
that if you're sitting, courtside there aren't going to be
a ton of people that you can high five with
that you're kind of doing it for a, show AND
i feel that he is doing this all for.
Speaker 5 (32:30):
SHOW i don't disagree at.
Speaker 9 (32:32):
ALL i also have a hard time believing there's been other.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Incidents it.
Speaker 9 (32:36):
Doesn't it's not stories you find because it doesn't get
out of hand where fans have been asked to move
because they have not followed the rules of sitting on the,
wall and so there's videos of them being moved somewhere.
Else SO i have a hard time believing that the
clippers weren't to this.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Person would you like us to move? You would you
like to go to another?
Speaker 9 (32:54):
SIDE i have a hard time believing that that wasn't
an option once you're told, this you know WHAT i?
Speaker 5 (33:00):
Mean or you would you like a?
Speaker 9 (33:03):
REFUND i have a hard time believing That Steve balmer
wouldn't give a refund in a situation like, that you
know What i'm, Saying, LIKE i feel like you could
have been probably, accommodated but you didn't want to because
you were just mad that you didn't know what you.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
Purchased yes that he. FELT i don't know HOW i
would like somebody be like you can't share for your,
Team like that would be like it would be kind of.
Weird you would feel like, somebody like another adult is
telling you how to. Live. WHY i can understand why
you would maybe react differently to, That but, ultimately again
for a team trying to make a home court. Advantage
(33:36):
we've seen this with teams selling tickets Right dodgers, padres
or when your area codes and where people are buying
tickets from it's only tickets that can be purchased with
this sort of zip. Code all those things are trying
to ensure a home court. Advantage AND i don't think
that that's bad for. Sports and so while this fan
(33:57):
may feel like he was misled ultimately in the grand
scheme of, things, MANCI i don't feel bad BECAUSE i
want teams to have a home field. ADVANTAGE i hate
how THE nfl and it's not just so. Fine you
are now seeing more and more fans in opposing, stadiums
and you're hearing cheers in places you never would have.
(34:17):
Thought we're hearing Audible lions cheers at Lambeau, Field, like
how in the, World how in the world does that?
Happen and so THESE i like it when a fan
or a team is Saying i'm not gonna sell my
tickets or we're taking our place back for the sole
reason Of and guess, WHAT i don't think it really
matters that it's The. Clippers it's different if it was The, lakers,
(34:39):
right if you had your crosstown rivals sitting in front
of your. Wall but for them to stick to their,
guns to, say, like doesn't matter if you're The, pistons The,
lakers or whoever you, are this is what we're trying
to build here with this. Culture that's. Fine they could
have given them a different seat somewhere.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
ELSE i have a hard time believing they didn't offer him.
Speaker 9 (34:56):
That you, Know it's, LIKE i think you mentioned it
in the in the show that like when you see
a student section and you see the one person not
wearing the right, color it drives you. Nuts so this,
guy imagine court side on the bottom, row everything Is
clippers and there's a guy Wearing pistons' that's literally what
they're trying to.
Speaker 5 (35:15):
Avoid SO i understand you're.
Speaker 9 (35:17):
Frustrated but at the same, time IF i bought tickets
whatever to watch The clippers anywhere else AND i was told,
THIS i would be, Like, OH i feel, Stupid where
CAN i?
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Move where CAN i? Go my?
Speaker 9 (35:28):
BAD i feel, dumb my. Stupid that was my. FAULT
i did not pay attention to.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
This do CAN i?
Speaker 9 (35:33):
Move and it's like he, said he stayed there and
that he just was asked to, not you, know stand
up necessarily and go crazy or show his.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Jersey this guy could not feel dumber THAN i felt
When mancy pointed out that it says the wall like
it's head w in tw And i'm, like, oh it's
SECTION W and it literally says. It on Stub. HUB
i clicked on a. Section every single ticket says the
wall and for, somehow WELL i didn't see. It by the,
(36:01):
way For toinan's game against The, kings seventy five bucks
to cheer in.
Speaker 9 (36:05):
The, wall, amazing, amazing and they actually just side note
here The, clippers that are a really awesome thing for
like families to sit on the wall like a package
of games with two adults and two. Kids like it's
not they're trying to get the fans, In that's what
you that's the whole, Point like you, said they're trying
to get the fans, in trying to change the image
of The clippers who always were the little brothers of
(36:26):
The lakers At Staples crypto whatever it's.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
Called and so that's what they're. Doing this is the,
thing this is their thing on a brand new, Arena
LIKE i. DON'T i don't understand what you're good for?
Speaker 3 (36:35):
Them, yeah for.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
Them by the, way for those of us that know
the long history of The, Wakers i'm sorry The quippers
In Los. Angeles it is neat to see them creating their. Niche,
yeah that probably sounds, condescending but they they've never been. Relevant,
Agree yeah. Overall maybe a year here and, there but
(36:57):
they've never overall been relevant compared to the other. Team
and it's neat to watch them trying to create a
niche by doing these. Things and by the, way The
wall is a top five all time album of Mine
Pink floyd nineteen seventy, Nine top five don't at. ME
i can give you the other, four But i'm not
going to bother. You and there's another thing about this.
(37:18):
Story this is the most Interesting Into It dome stories
since when it first. Opened you remember when it first,
opened AND i think the first concert maybe even went
and all the people were left outside because their digital
scanner thing didn't. Work, yes AND i had tweeted instead
of Into It, dome they should call it out of
(37:41):
It dome because everybody couldn't get into the couldn't get
into the. Arena you remember that.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
Tweet, Yeah, yes it's one of my.
Speaker 7 (37:48):
FAVORITE a lot of people come to me on the
street and they tell me THAT i remember that tweet
out of It.
Speaker 9 (37:53):
Dome and you, know like sometimes it's still. Annoying but
you don't need to do the face. Recognition you don't have.
To you could still use just a normal. Ticket you
don't have to use. That but it's funny because WHEN
i first, STARTED i have a friend who went to
A clippers game and he said that he he just
was able to sneak in because it was so messy
with like the face. Recognition so he didn't have a,
ticket but his family did and he.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
Just walked right on.
Speaker 9 (38:14):
In AND i was, like, really he's a, yeah because
it was such a mess, that like it was, like,
oh you're, in you're, In you're, Not AND.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
I was, like good for. You wait to sneak in.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
There the only way you could get busted is if
you're wearing a nineteen ninety Four Grant hills Turquoise priston's jersey.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
And sitting on the.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Wall, yes and his is on the. Ticket he had
the two differences of like one says the wall and
one says court, Side so he's trying to basically stick
around on a technicality in, saying, well this doesn't say,
it so this isn't technically the. Wall now we're going.
(38:47):
Down now we're doing steps like. That, yes it's to,
me you understand what the premise of the whole deal, is.
CORRECT i don't want any camera shots. In i'm sorry
To jason's point about the team everything that came with.
It from what we know about the perception around the
country For Los angeles fans outside of The dodgers And
(39:09):
lakers is that they're fair weather and they'll sell their
tickets to all the other. Teams so to try to
take a stand against that and build What jason's talking
about and you're talking, About i'm. Sorry i'm Just i'm
siding with the team on this. One i'd love to
side with the. FAN i think it is really weird
when you have a game At, nebraska maybe they're Hosting,
(39:29):
michigan because it's contrasting colors and it's a sea of
red and there's one guy with a maroon. Hat it
just it it takes its. Out, yeah just as like,
okay all, Right LIKE i get it's your, team and
the whole deal and us against the. World, well all,
right like just move, on just get out of my.
Way LIKE i don't mind sitting behind the, bench And
(39:50):
i'm mind the section that you're. In i've been, to
like many people as a, fan to road games in different.
SPOTS i think you there's this sort of code of
conduct as. Well and this, Fan nikki dimes, IS i
think is somebody goes on On. Twitter didn't seem like
he was being. Obnoxious no by any, means and some
(40:10):
fans can. Be but, still if that's the look that they,
want THEN i think that you should be able to
abide by. It AND i to your, Point, MONTY i
just don't believe that the team didn't do anything to
at least try to. Accommodate Maybe i'm, Wrong, NO.
Speaker 5 (40:24):
I have a hard time. BELIEVING i also feel like
it would have.
Speaker 9 (40:28):
Been, mentioned you know What i'm, saying like by. Him
they didn't even offer me anywhere to.
Speaker 5 (40:33):
GO i asked IF i.
Speaker 9 (40:34):
COULD i just feel like they were they probably offered
him something that it wasn't what he.
Speaker 5 (40:37):
Purchased and he's, like, NO i want to sit, Here,
okay then sit here just you, know golf clap for
Your pistons.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
Was standing up for a. Section other teams would usually
just be, like all, right deal with, it stake over
as long as you're buying, concessions that's all we.
Speaker 5 (40:50):
Care, Right but, no not a into it. Dome don't
sit on the wall if you're not.
Speaker 3 (40:54):

(41:43):
Stewart Chris. Purfett. Here not only Was Caitlin clark continuing
continually being discussed during the, break so Was. Pouci was
that It? Chris, Yes Peach? Okay all? Right so all
The simpsons fans can laugh at us for not Knowing.
Pouci but The Caitlin clark converce is one that continued
even during our time.
Speaker 9 (42:02):
Out it, did and you AND i have talked sat
here so many times to Discuss Caitlin clark in various different,
ways down to who's more.
Speaker 5 (42:11):
Famous, yeah that was.
Speaker 3 (42:14):
The argument that started all And Jason stewart's the one
that said made the point That Aaron judge And Caitlyn
clark were at A yankees game And Caitlin clark was
the more popular. Figure that's how it ended up. STARTING
i heard that AND i, said, well she's not more
popular Than Aaron. Judge, Yes and then it spread like.
(42:35):
Wildfire but this isn't a popularity, contest.
Speaker 5 (42:37):
But it has to be a part of, it though
it can.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Be but when you, don't and this is when you
are talking about gold medals and rings in championships In
hall Of. Fames Caitlin clark's game has not risen to that.
Level so while she may be the most, POPULAR i
don't know how you could take someone Like Simone biles
Or Michael, phelps or even A Steph curry and say
right now That Kitlyn clark's within ten spots of them
(43:02):
for a top twenty five athletes over the last twenty five.
Years you Think Steph curry And Kaitlyn clark are like,
this And i'm doing an Even.
Speaker 9 (43:09):
Stevens, STILL i don't think THERE'S i THINK i Think.
CLAY i Think Steph curry is for. ME i would
even say top. Ten, OKAY i Think Kaitlyn clark cracks the,
list whether she's the last one or.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
Not all, right this is this is WHY i Was
he's a top ten. Quarterback then you start going through
the list of, ten WHICH i always, hate but we
may have to do that here With Katelyn. Clark we'll
get twenty five athletes because we've got a lot of
nominees winning on hold.
Speaker 7 (43:38):
Not you want to get To themke In, Massachusetts, Luke,
Luke you're In. Massachusetts go, ahead the fact.
Speaker 13 (43:46):
That we're not talking About Sean white or any any
of The Winter olympic sports is. Insane but that man
did in the infancy of a brand new sport is
just unreal and inspired a lot of young kids and
made a huge impact on that Support.
Speaker 3 (44:02):
Sean would you Say Sean white is more influential Than Kitlyn? Clark?
Speaker 13 (44:06):
Oh god, no but he should be including at?
Speaker 3 (44:08):
Fifteen, okay all, RIGHT i love. THAT i love that
answer that was.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
Always, find always find where water finds this.
Speaker 3 (44:18):
Level, yeah he had me up right to the d
and god him like he's going to, say Oh, god, yes,
no that turned the. Son Then i'm Sorry Sean white
doesn't make the. LIST i love his passion for it
up Until Kitlyn. Clark but an interesting. Nominee who else
we got?
Speaker 1 (44:34):
You?
Speaker 7 (44:34):
Yeah that Great michael And Georgia, michael you're.
Speaker 3 (44:38):
Up.
Speaker 10 (44:39):
Yeah Alexander, OVECHKIN i, mean how can you leave him?
Speaker 3 (44:44):
Out, Okay i'll say, this And i'm glad you Brought
ovechkin Because, OVECHKIN i, remember was just on the outside looking,
in and you take the accomplishments that he had over
the last five. YEARS i Think Sidney crosby was twenty
on our list five years, Ago Sidney crosby was. Twenty
oh THAT'S i Think alvechkin would have passed, him, yes
(45:04):
and would have been included on this.
Speaker 5 (45:06):
List and the fact that he's still playing now we're
still mentioning his.
Speaker 9 (45:09):
Goals he already broke the, record but now it's, like
what is the record going to be at the end
when he was when he's.
Speaker 3 (45:14):
Finished it's a really good nomination and.
Speaker 2 (45:15):
Among his, accomplishments perhaps the greatest championship parade speech of
the last quarter.
Speaker 1 (45:21):
Century by the, way it's a fascinating thing, too BECAUSE
i think we In america definitely would care a lot
more About avechkin, too where it's like something Like crosby
winning the UH i For complit, medal the gold medal For.
Canada like again we're talking that's like the height Of
crosby and it's kind of come down from, there Whereas
avechkin's risen. Up BUT i would say there's not a
(45:43):
lot Of americans who would care much on that twenty
ten gold.
Speaker 3 (45:46):
Medal this is this is An american dominated. List LIKE
i will say that there are a few international athletes
we Mentioned Usaint bolt was on the. List i'll mention
another That isaac mentioned at the, Time Leo messi was. Ninth,
Okay Leel messi was ninth on the.
Speaker 5 (46:02):
List place still on the. LIST i just think maybe
he's not.
Speaker 3 (46:05):
Ninth, yeah he.
Speaker 2 (46:06):
Was he was, ninth and since then he has won
A World, cup which he hadn't up until that.
Speaker 5 (46:10):
Point that's a really good.
Speaker 1 (46:11):
Point and he's now won In america too with em.
Olss if any watches, that, Yeah i'm just, saying like
they spend all that money to bring him over here
to try to make him the next big thing In,
america A New.
Speaker 5 (46:22):
JERSEY i really wanted to he.
Speaker 7 (46:24):
WON i did not know.
Speaker 5 (46:25):
That, yes But, alex that's a great.
Speaker 6 (46:27):
One you know who's got a great one Is barb And.
Illinois we go back To. Illinois land Of, Hello, yes,
please More land Of. Lincoln what's going?
Speaker 7 (46:37):
On?
Speaker 3 (46:37):
Barb?
Speaker 14 (46:38):
Hi, Well i'm not A bears. Fan how Sad I'm
Green bay out of the. Way how About rory McElroy
even though he said it Mainly, America.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
Yes rory McElroy would be a good name to, add
but there are players who have more majors Than, Rory
like even within this. Generation Phil mickelson does Have Brooks
kepka's there with his five, Majors you've got the Career
Grand slam would be a point where you could Put
(47:11):
rory into that select, group something That phil does not.
Have But rory would be a good. NOMINEE i think
that he would be borderline in.
Speaker 5 (47:21):
THIS i agree with.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
THAT i don't think. THAT i don't know if you
would make the top twenty.
Speaker 5 (47:24):
Five Would Scotty scheffler make it over?
Speaker 7 (47:26):
Him?
Speaker 5 (47:26):
No, no you were still do you think It's.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
Rory scheffler's And? Scheffler really it's because it's been over
the last like four or five, years Like rory had
this you, know. DROUGHT i guess if you, will between
winning The masters this past year and then the last
time he won a, Major so it was like eleven
years of him trying to break through and not being
able to do. IT i think it's a really good.
Nominee ryder cups what he's meant To Team europe in that.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
Fashion, absolutely is it still twenty first century so much
dominated By Tiger woods that would make it hard to
put yes anyone up? There, yeah one hundred.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
Percent, hey, guys correct me If i'm, wrong And i'm
curious as to where this person was in twenty twenty
and when this was done in twenty. Twenty but if
we talked About Kobe bryant, YET Nba, championships gold, medals
sixty point.
Speaker 3 (48:13):
Games, yeah this was done at the end of at
the end of twenty. Years, yeah so it was following his.
Passing he was.
Speaker 5 (48:21):
SIXTH i think he would still be on the list
of top twenty.
Speaker 3 (48:24):
Five, absolutely, yes there's this was the Top So bolt was,
Seven kobe was. Six the guys In isaac mentioned ever.
Before Serena williams was, Five Michael phelps was, Four Tiger woods,
Three Lebron james, two And Tom brady. Won that's what
it was in twenty. Twenty it Was december of twenty,
twenty late in the year that we did this. Ranking
(48:47):
that's what the top seven. Was we've named a lot
of the. NAMES i can't wait to tell you the
ones that we've left, out which we'll we'll do here
in a. Second but let's take one more. Call who
do we Got Jason.
Speaker 7 (48:56):
Prolific this is the word that comes to. Mind everyone
In Los angeles market knows his. NAME i think he
calls every radio station in. Town It's solomon From Los.
Angeles welcome to the.
Speaker 11 (49:07):
Show, yes, wow, MAN i am. Honored, Well Happy New,
year w, buddy great. SHOW i love the coupling of
the three of. You you sort of store my thunder
a little. Bit as much AS i despise his off court,
Antics lebron still goes on that list who has accomplished
(49:28):
what he has at his age in the past a
couple of. SEASONS i don't know if anybody that is
that a superban athlete at his. Age so you got
to put him in that top?
Speaker 3 (49:39):
List would would you put him at number one Above Tom? Brady?
Speaker 10 (49:44):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (49:45):
Wow? Possibly And i'll tell you. WHY i, MEAN i
followed both, sports AND i know the quarterback is, like you,
know the big thing in, football, right you Know tom doesn't,
Block he doesn't you, know he didn't get. Passes he
didn't he wasn't a Running lebron is Ultimate Swiss Army,
knix who plays all those positions as good as he
(50:06):
does in the in basketball or in any sport for that.
Matters SO i might have to put him With. Tom.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Yeah, Interesting you KNOW.
Speaker 9 (50:14):
I don't like it, Either BUT i also was like
Does lebron go Now number? One MAINLY i was gonna
say because he's still actively.
Speaker 3 (50:23):
Playing, sure The Bubble championship was had already. Occurred, yeah
so so that was part of.
Speaker 9 (50:28):
This it would just be because the scoring title and
you're still actively, playing and we're talking about top. Athletes
so it's Like Tom, brady you're not played, anymore you,
Know Like i'm not saying, yeah you're still in, there
BUT i do think i'd give.
Speaker 3 (50:40):
You here's the, Thing Brady's Super bowl win with The
buccaneers was not included when we did, this so he
has so he would have added added one.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
Yep, July sixteenth, that's when it is. The road to

lou and Amber Glen compete at the twenty twenty six
priviag In US Figure Skating Championships January seventh through the eleventh.
That ends five days before my birthday. B there is
the twenty twenty sixth US Olympic Figure Skating tea is
named live tickets at US figure Skating dot org. Birthdays
(03:04):
on a Friday this year, nine days after my birthday.
Monci Belanos is another year oldes this is true, It
is true, But she's Aquarius, right Aquarius, I am Capricorn.
So close birthdays not the same sign. It is also
(03:25):
two days from now, a new year, twenty twenty five.
We say goodbye hello twenty twenty six. And throughout the
year I've noticed this as well, and it's a way
of honoring great athletes, like we're honoring Lebron James today
on his birthday. We're honoring Tiger Woods who turns fifty.
(03:45):
I'm about to turn fifty in a little over a year.
So I'm a year younger than Tiger Woods, and it's
just really weird to know that Tiger Woods can play
champions that play PGA Tour Champions if he wants, it's
called the Champions Tour now PGA Tour Champions. But if
he wants, he could play in the US Senior Open,
if that's something that he would want to do, which
I think would be the second most popular golf tournament
(04:10):
of the year. If Tiger played in the US Senior Open,
I think only the Masters in April would maybe top
the popularity. I think we would just we would love
to see it. He still says that he's a ways
away from from trying to do anything, but Tiger still
moves the needle even if he's fifty years old. But
now he just gets a lot of AARP stuff in
the map.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Yeah, you took the words out of my mouth.
Speaker 9 (04:30):
It's crazy to say that Tiger Woods, after everything that
he's been through today, right now he moves the needle.
If he were to participate in any sort of event,
people would immediately try.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
To get tickets and go, Yes, it's crazy because I
would do.
Speaker 9 (04:44):
I'm thinking, I'm like, who is he's Okay, Scotti Scheffler, Yeah,
but it's still Tiger Woods.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
Like he's still the everyone who give me a golfer,
you know, Tiger Woods. That's the first answer. I think
people would say.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
The Scotti, Scheffler, Rory McElroy, and then people would start
to Then then you know what you would get. This
is what you get from the common people. You get
Jack Nicholas, Arnold Palmer, chi Chi Rodriguez. Like that's where
it would go. Like there's like for you know, everybody,
for some reason, everybody knows chi Chi Rodriguez. But that's
what you would get for people who don't know golf.
(05:15):
That's about as far down as you could go.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Tell you my girlfriends would give me Tiger Woods. Yep,
there's no way that they would know Scotti Scheffler's name.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
No, would they know Rory Mac or Rory Mac.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
There's no way.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Sure Tiger moves the it would be Tiger. Five years
ago at Fox Sports Radio, we did a ranking of
the top twenty athletes in the first twenty years of
essentially this century. But those are the first twenty years
of our network, which makes me think, now it's been
twenty five years for Fox Sports Radio. But we did
(05:48):
a top twenty countdown of the best best athletes of
those that previous twenty years. ESPN did one this summer
where they counted down the top five, the top one
hundred maybe athletes of the of the past quarter century.
Is how they did it. But this is where you
come into play eight seven seven nine nine on Fox
(06:09):
eight seven seven nine nine to six six y three six'.
Nine we want to hear from you the top athletes
that we've had over the last twenty five. Years And
i'm going to give you the top three athletes that
we had in our top twenty five months, ago, yes
five years, ago number. Three and this was an exercise
(06:29):
where all members Of Fox Sports radio submitted a ballot
with a variety of. NAMES i think there were maybe
seventy names on the, list maybe fifty names on the,
list and you ranked your top. Twenty the top three
broke down To Tiger woods number, Three Lebron james number,
two And Tom brady was voted number. One is the
(06:50):
top athlete at that point of the first twenty years
Of Fox Sports radio from two thousand to twenty. Twenty
so now here we are at twenty twenty five who
is added to their legacy over the last five, years
who could be a part of this. Conversation i'm not
going to release the whole list BECAUSE i think there
are names that people will want to bring up totally
(07:12):
and we'll see if they hit our list of twenty
or if they should be included in our twenty or
top twenty. Five but when you look back at the
last twenty five, Years, manzi is there an athlete that
stands out to you that you think of that STOOD
i guess the test of time for what they accomplished
over the last twenty or twenty five years or.
Speaker 9 (07:32):
So besides those, three BECAUSE i think they could make
a list even.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
Today, Right, Yes i'm gonna throw In Steph.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Curry Steph, Curry.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Steph CURRY i think still moves the. Needle that.
Speaker 9 (07:43):
Dude watching that guy. Play, Now, lebron you're forty one
and what you're doing is, Incredible it's.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
True But Steph.
Speaker 9 (07:47):
Curry is right alongside you carrying The warriors offense, literally you,
Know SO i would say.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
He right now has to Be Steph curry on this
list was at sixteen five years, Ago, yes five years,
ago he was, Sixteen so he's added a championship since,
then so that would be so he got his fourth
between now and. Then and, Yeah i'll be curious to
see on where he moves, out BUT i think That's
Steph curry is A.
Speaker 7 (08:13):
But he literally changed a. SPORT i don't think basketball
is the same now before it, was say in twenty.
Sixteen just watching the, sport one player changed the way
everything is played. NOW i don't think you could say
that about a lot of. Athletes Like lebron was amazingly,
great and he almost lived up to the, hype which
(08:34):
seemingly was impossible coming out of high, school but he
didn't necessarily change the way a sport was. PLAYED i
would Give Steph curry the, credit maybe even Over lebron
in the last twenty five.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
Years you, Know i'm not against that at all BECAUSE
i agree with what you're. Saying and if you Watch
Steph curry right, now he is still creating his own
offense by running. Around he doesn't just stand in one
spot because he's tired and old or, whatever you know
WHAT i. Mean, like he's actually still running up and
down trying to avoid the defender get.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Open so, yes he's still doing.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
IT i and and the thing THAT i would, say
AND i Know isaac seems like he Want, isaac you
want to in first, man you, good come on.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
IN i feel that particularly from then twenty twenty until,
now a guy who has rocketed up on that list
from twenty twenty to twenty twenty five Show Hey.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Otani, okay So otani would be.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Including no, doubt no doubt for.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Sure and he hasn't changed the game yet because people
aren't hitting and pitching, again but he's been the only, one,
right you. Know the, THING i think That otani definitely
would have been, included especially now with The World championships
The dodgers have five years ago not on the. LIST
i don't even think he was as a nominee at that,
point but now now definitely would be. Included at that.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
Point do you, remember just off the top of your,
head Was Mike trout on that list at the.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
TIME i think he was a?
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Nominee, yeah is at the time that would make sense, right,
yes THE, MVPs, yes and he.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Was.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Yeah Also Patrick mahomes because mahomes First Super bowl victory
was in the twenty nineteen twenty nineteen season into twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Yeah he. Could he would have been, Added but it's
when when you hear some of the, names there's there's
certain lines that are. Drawn and that's why The otani
one is interesting because of the baseball players that weren't
included or were included on our. List BUT i want
to say something about This Steph curry conversation BECAUSE i
(10:31):
think that There's steph, is no doubt the greatest shooter
that we have. Seen he wasn't the only shooter on
At golden At Golden, state he was the best of the.
Best how much does the game in analytics and how
you look at the three point shot and the value
(10:52):
of it, change because that's WHAT i also think has.
Changed that there was a there was a long time
in the end were mid range. Jumpers guys would make
careers on. That a mid range jumper now is blasphemy
in basketball because of the value of the percentage of
the shot compared to your. Point so there's no doubt
(11:14):
That Steph curry is the greatest shooter that we've ever
seen in THE. Mba there's no comparison whatsoever is it
Because Steph curry shot at such a high percentage that
then opened up the world to, Realize, okay this is
a better percentage because he's so good at. It But
Klay thompson was doing the, Same The warriors were doing the.
(11:35):
Same other teams are following now shooting fifty sixty, Threes
like there's no great shooter Like Steph curry on The Boston,
celtics but that's how they. Play so that would be my,
question is the game? Changed have we looked at it
so in an analytics world it has Allowed Steph curry
to thrive or Did Steph curry bring that culture in
that now makes us look at the three as a
(11:58):
completely different weapon and the basis of.
Speaker 9 (12:00):
BASKETBALL i think he was the start of looking at
it analytically and the benefit of being able to consistently
shoot a. Three and it's because of how he shot, it,
right he was taking ridiculous. THREES i, Know Klay Thompson's
Klay thompson's splash. Brothers they both were. Awesome but the
way maybe Because steph looks so much, Smaller maybe because
of him constantly like avoiding the defender coming off a
(12:23):
screen and doing a quick.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Shot that's like how did he even get it?
Speaker 9 (12:26):
Off you, know like all of, that BUT i think
he was the driving force as to how we look at.
IT i do think it was, him and maybe you're
right that it was always going to happen, Naturally, yeah
but HE i do think maybe sped it.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Up, YEAH i think. SO i think. THAT i think.
THAT i so WHEN i look At steph BECAUSE i
want to bring in his personal accomplishments as, well BECAUSE
i don't What i'm trying not to do is diminish
You Steph courrey as as a player by saying like
this is just the, game like he has this moment
(13:01):
like the twenty twenty Four olympics actually ends up being
his moment because it isn't within The, warriors like The warriors,
system you, know during their early years it's like lay
up in threes like that's what they that's what they.
Had SO i think that he was a part of
it and shooting it at like that at the clip
that he. Did but, yeah guys Like Kyle korver who
(13:22):
still would shoot.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Fifty, no it was not the same though it.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Was it. Wasn't, Yeah and that's and that's why it's
different With curry BECAUSE i think of how the all
around player that he was so we do have some
callers coming.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
In jason are gonna let it. Do it's just lighting.
UP i know people are putting away they Are christmas
trees this, week but this the phone bank is lighting
up like A christmas. Tree, well thank, you thank you
for joining that that. METAPHOR i gave that a lot of.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Laughter thank. You brian In.
Speaker 7 (13:52):
Pennsylvania, brian you're up. First what's going?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
On?
Speaker 10 (13:55):
Brian not too much on my way to?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Work all, Right, well kudos you for going to. Work
what what nominee do you want to put for top
athlete in the last twenty five.
Speaker 11 (14:04):
YEARS i want to Put Michael, vick and not for
all the good, things but also the band awareness he.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
WAS i, mean he's a what could have been right
and he has turned his life around now a college
football head. Coach there are people to this day who
don't want anything to do With Michael vick because of
what went. On so it's AN i don't think you
would have cracked the top twenty. ATHLETES i think his
athletic ability was off the, Charts BUT i don't know
(14:33):
if he's going to make the top twenty who once we.
GOT i think he's referring to the turnaround. Stories, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
Time, yeah AND i think people look at that whole,
world awful dogfighting, world in a different. View, Anyways eric And.
Iowa you're up. Next, eric you're, There.
Speaker 10 (14:51):
Yeah i'm.
Speaker 12 (14:51):
Here thanks for taking my.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Call what's? Up? Eric who you? Got?
Speaker 12 (14:54):
Yeah i'm going to vote For christian.
Speaker 10 (14:56):
McCaffrey and it's a close one With Davante. ADAMS i think.
Speaker 12 (15:00):
This season spolidified those two as, candidates BUT i Think
christian McCaffrey takes it over.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Us christian McCaffrey is a dual threat in the running
and receiving threat that he was absolutely who.
Speaker 9 (15:13):
ELSE i feel like people have he became like a
hybrid player and NOW i see it more and.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
More, Yes but CAN i tell you this of The
top twenty that we had five years? Ago remember in
the first twenty years we had two football players on
the list two.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
And Then Tom brady was one of.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Them And Tom brady was one of, Them so they
don't want to. It so Does christian McCaffrey rise to that?
Level would he be an added if we expanded it
to a twenty? Five i'm not necessarily sure that's the.
Speaker 9 (15:41):
Case, YEAH i DON'T i understand right this, year, RIGHT
i was gonna, say because in the last couple of,
years not just this, year but in the last four
or five, Years christian McCaffrey ever, SINCE i feel like
he got to the forty nine, ers he's, had you, know, success,
success AND i don't know if people.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Expected it because of the injuries and what he had
prior to getting.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
THERE i Think mahomes would make this. LIST i think
the nominee Of mahomes bringing him up would make this.
List and if we expanded it to twenty, FIVE i
think it's a no. Brainer, YEAH i think it's an
absolute no. Brainer AND i.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Mentioned one thing about the McCaffrey, thing and it's gonna
be an uncomfortable, point BUT i know a lot of
attention over the last quarter century has been on the black,
quarterback and deservedly. So But christian McCaffrey thriving at that,
position and we could all admit it's not a position
that white players have thrived. At maybe kind of puts
(16:32):
them up at a different. LEVEL i don't. Know but,
anyways how About mike And. Illinois, mike who's your top
athlete of the last quarter?
Speaker 12 (16:40):
CENTURY i don't even think it's A it's first is.
OBVIOUS i don't even think there's a closed. Second how
can it be anybody other Than Usain? Bolt An't golden,
medals still holds the world record in the hundred two
hundred and four by. One anybody that doesn't think It's Usaint.
(17:02):
BOLT i got to debate, Them.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Well you're gonna be, debating and the reason being IS
i don't even THINK i can make him feel good on.
This It's mike And illinois that who it. Is Usain
bolt came in seventh in our list in twenty, twenty
so there were six athletes ahead Of Usain bolt at that.
Time so that was So Usain bolt didn't make our top.
Five he was on the, list he was top, ten
(17:27):
he was.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Seven by the, way that was the only Time usain
both has ever finished seventh in. Anything but you, Know
mike raises a really interesting point BECAUSE i think you
can lump a couple of other individuals in that sort
of Realm Michael, phelps, Right Serena, Williams, Novak, Djokovic Lionel.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
MESSI i was gonna say Among olympians, Like i'm not
even maybe this is me going to The american a
little bit more Than Usain. Bolt but like just in
this few sphere Of, Olympics i'd Have phelps Above Usain bolt, pertionally.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
But Michael phelps was fourth on this list on the
other side Of Tiger. Woods so that's Where Michael phelps
was in Our Fox Sports radio list five years. Ago,
NOW i in looking, BACK i can't remember on If
phelps swim in twenty twenty. ONE i don't think he
did In, tokyo but he didn't swim in twenty twenty,
(18:22):
four so there would be no adding to his legend
at this. Point but the hey is in the barn
and his resume speaks for himself as An.
Speaker 9 (18:31):
Olympian since we're on The, olympia BECAUSE i just wanted.
It when was the last Time Usain bolt? COMPETED i
think is what the internet is telling, me was twenty.
Seventeen was the last time he? Competed if we're talking About,
olympians isn't it Not Simone?
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Biles, yes, yes, oh, yes she's absol there.
Speaker 9 (18:45):
Because she's current and like not That Usain bolt Or
Michael phelps would not make some sort of, List like,
yes they'll make a, list just this one in Particular top.
Twenty when it's other sports. INCLUDED i don't know if
they would they wouldn't make a of course it.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Would So Simone biles had the twisties. INCIDENT i believe
that was in twenty twenty one In tokyo comes. Back
she competed in twenty twenty four In. Paris she was
fourteenth on the, list so she would have maybe have
raised up and. Higher she was fourteen on our list
at the, time so she would have had room to.
(19:20):
Grow let's take a couple of more. Calls we'll take
a time. Out we'll take some on the other side as.
Well there have been some names that have made the.
RANKINGS i don't want to completely clutter, it but when
we do have a name pop out that makes our,
Rankings i'll make sure to note of.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
It who do we? Else who else do we? Have
Jason Patrick? Illinois Patrick, illinois.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
All, Right illinois state to be? Today what's going?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
On?
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Patrick who you got?
Speaker 10 (19:42):
Well based not only on athletic, ability but the fact
that she brought relevance to a quote unquote irrelevant. Sport
i've got to go With Caitlyn.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
Clark, absolutely that's a good.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
One she would be in the Top she would make
the top twenty five Ath she.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
Would make the top twenty.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
Five she didn't play at all last.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
Year, yeah it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Matter this is, again this IS i AND i And.
PATRICK i think's point is the, popularity and he's, Right, yeah.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
It's more more Than Aaron judge for sure.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
When waiting for The Aaron judge call to come in
to see but you would you would put her as
a top twenty five athlete Of and we're talking about
we just, had was It mike And illinois talk About
Usain bolt to talk about his. Accomplishments and it's not
meant to Disrespect Caitlin clark with the, accomplishments but the
(20:40):
encourt like we are talking about athletes that have Have
she shoots long, threes, right.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
But she she is that popular for.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
HER i know she.
Speaker 5 (20:49):
OFTEN i do think she would crack the top twenty.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Five part of it is not just the athletic, achievements though,
significant it's also the, notoriety which is less about the
athlete themselves than the sports media culture that takes them
to another level of.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Notoriety AND i think that sports media culture informs this
even with her being out for a year or, Whatever
we've kind of hit a Where's poocy moment with her
where it's just Where's Caitlin? Clark when Is Caitlyn clark?
Back What? Like why Isn't Caitlyn clark here featured on
this or the other? Thing there's a whole storm around
wanting More Caitlyn. Clark Who's? POOCHY i have no idea
(21:32):
The simpsons. REFERENCE i Know sam's not, here so that's
the only. ONE i think that none of you Know simpson's.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
References, OKAY i do bet not that, one at Least.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Poochy i'm a little lost On. POOCHY i died on
his way back to his home. Plan i'm looking at
Just i'm just looking at the list of accomplished, athletes
and there are Enorm this list.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
Is not, SORRY i don't mean to cut you.
Speaker 9 (21:57):
Off you want to change it from not the most
influential as fleets of twenty for the last twenty five,
years you want the most accomplished because that is.
Speaker 7 (22:04):
Different totally, different and you know the language has kind of.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Changed no, One, NO i just never said, influential no.
INCORPORATION i actually said, consequential you.
Speaker 9 (22:16):
Said BUT i incorporated all that into, it, accomplishments influence
and WHAT.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
I, like put it all.
Speaker 9 (22:21):
Together, sure but if you're, right like it would change
is if we're looking at some BUT i was looking
at it like the whole.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Thing, sure, yeah this is this is also it would
be a three year, window a four year window right
the last two years At Iowa national championship. Teams AND
i know that there was stuff building up to that,
point but in terms of the pure, craze it's been
the last four. Years, yeah so four of the twenty
five years sufficient enough to top to.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Crack the top twenty. Five, Yes Fox.

Speaker 9 (23:52):
Yours so damn let's get right into. It BECAUSE i
woke up to someone tweeting at. Us jason was part
of the tweet as. Well it came From John, grace
who also Included cavino And rich for this And danny G,
yes so all of us were included in. This And
John grace just kind of retweeted a post of A nba,
(24:15):
fan specifically A pistons fan who went to the Recent
Clippers pistons game and purchased floor seats on the side
of the wall where The clippers since opening the doors
into it, dome trying to create an atmosphere that is
their own, said we're going to have a wall a
(24:37):
side of the arena that is supposed to give you
a college atmosphere where college students go and cheer like
you see in you, know in college, games whether it's
football or.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Basketball from the, beginning this is something that they. ADVERTISED
i am A clippers.
Speaker 9 (24:52):
FAN i have been to several games At Into It,
dome AND i have sat on the side of the
wall zero. Times because you have to be engaged and
you got to be like a fan and doing it
the whole.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Way and it's all That i'm not a.
Speaker 9 (25:02):
FAN i just sometimes want to just sit and sit
on my beer and watch and chill. Out and you
have to be on, it you, know like you're there
when they're shooting free throws and they give you props
so that you are engaged and you are a part of.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
This and so when they show you on, screen you
can see the.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
Wall it is called the. Wall it is from top to.
Bottom when you purchase a, ticket it says.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
You will be sitting on the.
Speaker 9 (25:21):
Wall that means you cannot wear opposing team's, gear you
cannot cheer for the opposing.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
Team you sit on the.
Speaker 9 (25:29):
Wall you are A clippers, fan and you have to
do it for the entire forty eight, minutes if not
more if there's. Overtime, apparently this gentleman bought floor seats
and was very upset, DISAPPOINTED i understandably so that he
couldn't show off His Grant Hill pistons jersey and cheer.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
For the team At into It.
Speaker 9 (25:49):
Dom and it's, caused you, know a discourse On TWITTER
x AND i looked through this guy's tweet and he
keeps he shows a picture because when when you sit
on the, WALL i guess if you maybe a take
off your shirt and you're showing that you are A pistons,
fan that's the team that they were. Playing they give
you a sheet or maybe it's on the seat when
you sit. Down i've never sat on the. Wall i'm
(26:10):
telling you, guys BECAUSE i don't want. To the pressure
of cheering for forty eight minutes is a. Lot they
give you a little note that says you are sitting
on the. Wall this is a responsibility for sitting on the.
Wall so he wasn't allowed to show his, jersey he
wasn't allowed to cheer for The. Pistons he was really
really mad and said that someone should have told, him
and he keeps putting screenshots of his. Ticket, well, yeah,
puppy on your, ticket it doesn't tell. You BUT i
(26:30):
know WHEN i buy tickets for something and it, says
you want this, seat there's an obstructive, view you want this.
Seat it doesn't come with This you want this, seat.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
It tells you when you purchase your.
Speaker 9 (26:39):
Tickets and SO i feel, like unfortunately for this, guy
you just didn't pay attention to what you.
Speaker 5 (26:44):
Purchased and it sucks that.
Speaker 9 (26:46):
You bought floor seats that are thousands of dollars and
you didn't sit at the top of the, wall which
is like twenty bucks to sit at the very.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
Top it really does. Suck but you just didn't know
what you were. Purchasing you did not cross your t's
and dot your.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
EYES i find it's so rich that a fan of
an opposing team In Los angeles now take out The
dodgers and take out The. Lakers but what happens at
so far when the forty Nine ers come to town
to face The, rams it's a faithful forty Nine er, takeover.
RIGHT i was surprised to see how Many chargers fans
(27:20):
compared to The texans fans there were at the game
that we went to On, saturday WHERE i, Listen i've
seen the. SCREENSHOTS i know When denver comes to, town
how much orange there. IS i know how much silver
and blacks in the. Crowd when The raiders come and
play The. Chargers there were a lot Of chargers fans.
There there weren't as Many texans fans, there AND i
think that was because of the new. Team, however when
(27:41):
you talk ABOUT nfl fan, bases people, say, Well charger
fans don't show up to the. Game so here you
have an organization a block away that is deciding to
take matters into their own hands to try to change
a narrative and give themselves home court, advantage and one
guy's upset because he can't show off His Grant hill.
Jersey like that's that's HOW i weigh.
Speaker 10 (28:02):
It.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Now there are a lot of different ways that you
can look at things and try to rationalize. THEM i
understand that you're, frustrated but it feels like he's going
out of his way to show that he was wronged
in a situation that if you're outside of A pistons,
FAN i don't know how many people are actually going
to side with this.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
GUY i don't.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Either his whole point is that he should have been
told these tickets said nothing of this on. Them, yeah
once you got your, ticket it doesn't say it on,
That but when you purchase your ticket one hundred, percent
it tells you you you also pick. Tickets, guys the
side of the wall is more, expensive, Said i've looked and.
Compared the very very top may be the same if you,
(28:45):
sit you, know like the three hundred, section BUT i
like to sit in like.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
The middle of the.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Bowl sitting on the wall in the middle is more
expensive than me sitting on the opposite. Side i've looked into,
it so another reason WHY i haven't sat on the.
Wall so it's just kind of LIKE i spend one
hundred bucks on seats for, anything whether it's a, concert
for this That i'm gonna triple check exactly What i'm.
Purchasing you just purchase seats that were thousands of dollars
and you did Not you did not pay attention to
(29:09):
what you.
Speaker 5 (29:09):
Purchased i'm. Sorry you have no excuse the Whole they
should have told. Me, No i'm sure they.
Speaker 9 (29:14):
Did i'm sure maybe even in your email confirmation from The,
clippers it probably said, It, hey, welcome get.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
Excited you're coming to into It dome and you're going
to be a part of the.
Speaker 9 (29:24):
WALL i can already see that email because let me
tell you what we send for The dodgers when you purchase.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
A tour, ticket all of the things that you need
to know for what you just.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
PURCHASED i am looking at into a dome right now
trying to see if on a secondary market we could
get any information that this is the wall or not the.
Wall and So i'm not sure in exactly the full
map of, It, monty But i've clicked on both sides
and there was never a point where it says you
are in the.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
Wall on the.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
On the on the on the on this just on Stub.
HUB i went to both sides of the.
Speaker 9 (29:59):
Court and because other people just show this guy like
pictures of third party where it's at.
Speaker 5 (30:03):
The, wall this is the. Row, this you know What i'm.
Saying so let me let me see.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
The point THAT i look at it is the? Wall
is there for a? Reason AND i go to college.
Basketball in college, basketball if you ever watch a college basketball,
game you follow college, basketball you know. This isaac knows.
This when you jump have a jump ball at the
start of the game for the first, half you are
going towards the other team's.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
Bench, okay so, See i'm pretty sure that tw is the?
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Wall is that what it? Says Ok, oh, yeah sure
enough the? Wall, yes click down and here all. Right
the point That i'm going to make about the college
basketball thing is in the second, half you are usually
going offensively on the side of your. Bench your coach
can yell out the offensive calls at that. Point, however
(30:52):
that is also where student sections are because you want
them to miss those free throws in the final. Minutes
you want to distract. Them so the student section is
normally by a. Bench so this Isn't this isn't anything
new for a fan. Base and the REASON i bring
this up is BECAUSE i thought to, myself If i'm a,
(31:13):
fan and in this, case the guy was A pistons,
fan If i'm A pistons, FAN i want to sit
by my, team the team THAT i like and the
players THAT i want to. See so that all makes.
Sense but that also happens to be the wall area
where you would want them to end up missing free.
Throws now THE, nba it's actually. Different that doesn't go
with the way the college game. Is there's a different
(31:35):
way of deciding on which way you go at which.
End but still the wall is at the bench side
of the opposing. Team so maybe if there's ways where
the wall can heckle the opposing, bench the opposing bench
is right, there and getting that all makes. SENSE i
really feel he's blowing out of proportion the fact that
he can't show off His Grant hill jersey more than anything,
(31:59):
else because he still get the full, experience the cheering
up and. DOWN i hate. IT i can't stand it
when opposing fans are loud and obnoxious in road venues
because they have this me against the world sort of.
Thinking it's fine if you want to slap a high
five to another fan or another group of fans around,
(32:19):
you but the, loud obnoxious, type which IS i think
that if you're sitting, courtside there aren't going to be
a ton of people that you can high five with
that you're kind of doing it for a, show AND
i feel that he is doing this all for.
Speaker 5 (32:30):
SHOW i don't disagree at.
Speaker 9 (32:32):
ALL i also have a hard time believing there's been other.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Incidents it.
Speaker 9 (32:36):
Doesn't it's not stories you find because it doesn't get
out of hand where fans have been asked to move
because they have not followed the rules of sitting on the,
wall and so there's videos of them being moved somewhere.
Else SO i have a hard time believing that the
clippers weren't to this.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Person would you like us to move? You would you
like to go to another?
Speaker 9 (32:54):
SIDE i have a hard time believing that that wasn't
an option once you're told, this you know WHAT i?
Speaker 5 (33:00):
Mean or you would you like a?
Speaker 9 (33:03):
REFUND i have a hard time believing That Steve balmer
wouldn't give a refund in a situation like, that you
know What i'm, Saying, LIKE i feel like you could
have been probably, accommodated but you didn't want to because
you were just mad that you didn't know what you.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
Purchased yes that he. FELT i don't know HOW i
would like somebody be like you can't share for your,
Team like that would be like it would be kind of.
Weird you would feel like, somebody like another adult is
telling you how to. Live. WHY i can understand why
you would maybe react differently to, That but, ultimately again
for a team trying to make a home court. Advantage
(33:36):
we've seen this with teams selling tickets Right dodgers, padres
or when your area codes and where people are buying
tickets from it's only tickets that can be purchased with
this sort of zip. Code all those things are trying
to ensure a home court. Advantage AND i don't think
that that's bad for. Sports and so while this fan
(33:57):
may feel like he was misled ultimately in the grand
scheme of, things, MANCI i don't feel bad BECAUSE i
want teams to have a home field. ADVANTAGE i hate
how THE nfl and it's not just so. Fine you
are now seeing more and more fans in opposing, stadiums
and you're hearing cheers in places you never would have.
(34:17):
Thought we're hearing Audible lions cheers at Lambeau, Field, like
how in the, World how in the world does that?
Happen and so THESE i like it when a fan
or a team is Saying i'm not gonna sell my
tickets or we're taking our place back for the sole
reason Of and guess, WHAT i don't think it really
matters that it's The. Clippers it's different if it was The, lakers,
(34:39):
right if you had your crosstown rivals sitting in front
of your. Wall but for them to stick to their,
guns to, say, like doesn't matter if you're The, pistons The,
lakers or whoever you, are this is what we're trying
to build here with this. Culture that's. Fine they could
have given them a different seat somewhere.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
ELSE i have a hard time believing they didn't offer him.
Speaker 9 (34:56):
That you, Know it's, LIKE i think you mentioned it
in the in the show that like when you see
a student section and you see the one person not
wearing the right, color it drives you. Nuts so this,
guy imagine court side on the bottom, row everything Is
clippers and there's a guy Wearing pistons' that's literally what
they're trying to.
Speaker 5 (35:15):
Avoid SO i understand you're.
Speaker 9 (35:17):
Frustrated but at the same, time IF i bought tickets
whatever to watch The clippers anywhere else AND i was told,
THIS i would be, Like, OH i feel, Stupid where
CAN i?
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Move where CAN i? Go my?
Speaker 9 (35:28):
BAD i feel, dumb my. Stupid that was my. FAULT
i did not pay attention to.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
This do CAN i?
Speaker 9 (35:33):
Move and it's like he, said he stayed there and
that he just was asked to, not you, know stand
up necessarily and go crazy or show his.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Jersey this guy could not feel dumber THAN i felt
When mancy pointed out that it says the wall like
it's head w in tw And i'm, like, oh it's
SECTION W and it literally says. It on Stub. HUB
i clicked on a. Section every single ticket says the
wall and for, somehow WELL i didn't see. It by the,
(36:01):
way For toinan's game against The, kings seventy five bucks
to cheer in.
Speaker 9 (36:05):
The, wall, amazing, amazing and they actually just side note
here The, clippers that are a really awesome thing for
like families to sit on the wall like a package
of games with two adults and two. Kids like it's
not they're trying to get the fans, In that's what
you that's the whole, Point like you, said they're trying
to get the fans, in trying to change the image
of The clippers who always were the little brothers of
(36:26):
The lakers At Staples crypto whatever it's.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
Called and so that's what they're. Doing this is the,
thing this is their thing on a brand new, Arena
LIKE i. DON'T i don't understand what you're good for?
Speaker 3 (36:35):
Them, yeah for.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
Them by the, way for those of us that know
the long history of The, Wakers i'm sorry The quippers
In Los. Angeles it is neat to see them creating their. Niche,
yeah that probably sounds, condescending but they they've never been. Relevant,
Agree yeah. Overall maybe a year here and, there but
(36:57):
they've never overall been relevant compared to the other. Team
and it's neat to watch them trying to create a
niche by doing these. Things and by the, way The
wall is a top five all time album of Mine
Pink floyd nineteen seventy, Nine top five don't at. ME
i can give you the other, four But i'm not
going to bother. You and there's another thing about this.
(37:18):
Story this is the most Interesting Into It dome stories
since when it first. Opened you remember when it first,
opened AND i think the first concert maybe even went
and all the people were left outside because their digital
scanner thing didn't. Work, yes AND i had tweeted instead
of Into It, dome they should call it out of
(37:41):
It dome because everybody couldn't get into the couldn't get
into the. Arena you remember that.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
Tweet, Yeah, yes it's one of my.
Speaker 7 (37:48):
FAVORITE a lot of people come to me on the
street and they tell me THAT i remember that tweet
out of It.
Speaker 9 (37:53):
Dome and you, know like sometimes it's still. Annoying but
you don't need to do the face. Recognition you don't have.
To you could still use just a normal. Ticket you
don't have to use. That but it's funny because WHEN
i first, STARTED i have a friend who went to
A clippers game and he said that he he just
was able to sneak in because it was so messy
with like the face. Recognition so he didn't have a,
ticket but his family did and he.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
Just walked right on.
Speaker 9 (38:14):
In AND i was, like, really he's a, yeah because
it was such a mess, that like it was, like,
oh you're, in you're, In you're, Not AND.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
I was, like good for. You wait to sneak in.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
There the only way you could get busted is if
you're wearing a nineteen ninety Four Grant hills Turquoise priston's jersey.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
And sitting on the.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Wall, yes and his is on the. Ticket he had
the two differences of like one says the wall and
one says court, Side so he's trying to basically stick
around on a technicality in, saying, well this doesn't say,
it so this isn't technically the. Wall now we're going.
(38:47):
Down now we're doing steps like. That, yes it's to,
me you understand what the premise of the whole deal, is.
CORRECT i don't want any camera shots. In i'm sorry
To jason's point about the team everything that came with.
It from what we know about the perception around the
country For Los angeles fans outside of The dodgers And
(39:09):
lakers is that they're fair weather and they'll sell their
tickets to all the other. Teams so to try to
take a stand against that and build What jason's talking
about and you're talking, About i'm. Sorry i'm Just i'm
siding with the team on this. One i'd love to
side with the. FAN i think it is really weird
when you have a game At, nebraska maybe they're Hosting,
(39:29):
michigan because it's contrasting colors and it's a sea of
red and there's one guy with a maroon. Hat it
just it it takes its. Out, yeah just as like,
okay all, Right LIKE i get it's your, team and
the whole deal and us against the. World, well all,
right like just move, on just get out of my.
Way LIKE i don't mind sitting behind the, bench And
(39:50):
i'm mind the section that you're. In i've been, to
like many people as a, fan to road games in different.
SPOTS i think you there's this sort of code of
conduct as. Well and this, Fan nikki dimes, IS i
think is somebody goes on On. Twitter didn't seem like
he was being. Obnoxious no by any, means and some
(40:10):
fans can. Be but, still if that's the look that they,
want THEN i think that you should be able to
abide by. It AND i to your, Point, MONTY i

(41:43):
Stewart Chris. Purfett. Here not only Was Caitlin clark continuing
continually being discussed during the, break so Was. Pouci was
that It? Chris, Yes Peach? Okay all? Right so all
The simpsons fans can laugh at us for not Knowing.
Pouci but The Caitlin clark converce is one that continued
even during our time.
Speaker 9 (42:02):
Out it, did and you AND i have talked sat
here so many times to Discuss Caitlin clark in various different,
ways down to who's more.
Speaker 5 (42:11):
Famous, yeah that was.
Speaker 3 (42:14):
The argument that started all And Jason stewart's the one
that said made the point That Aaron judge And Caitlyn
clark were at A yankees game And Caitlin clark was
the more popular. Figure that's how it ended up. STARTING
i heard that AND i, said, well she's not more
popular Than Aaron. Judge, Yes and then it spread like.
(42:35):
Wildfire but this isn't a popularity, contest.
Speaker 5 (42:37):
But it has to be a part of, it though
it can.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Be but when you, don't and this is when you
are talking about gold medals and rings in championships In
hall Of. Fames Caitlin clark's game has not risen to that.
Level so while she may be the most, POPULAR i
don't know how you could take someone Like Simone biles
Or Michael, phelps or even A Steph curry and say
right now That Kitlyn clark's within ten spots of them
(43:02):
for a top twenty five athletes over the last twenty five.
Years you Think Steph curry And Kaitlyn clark are like,
this And i'm doing an Even.
Speaker 9 (43:09):
Stevens, STILL i don't think THERE'S i THINK i Think.
CLAY i Think Steph curry is for. ME i would
even say top. Ten, OKAY i Think Kaitlyn clark cracks the,
list whether she's the last one or.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
Not all, right this is this is WHY i Was
he's a top ten. Quarterback then you start going through
the list of, ten WHICH i always, hate but we
may have to do that here With Katelyn. Clark we'll
get twenty five athletes because we've got a lot of
nominees winning on hold.
Speaker 7 (43:38):
Not you want to get To themke In, Massachusetts, Luke,
Luke you're In. Massachusetts go, ahead the fact.
Speaker 13 (43:46):
That we're not talking About Sean white or any any
of The Winter olympic sports is. Insane but that man
did in the infancy of a brand new sport is
just unreal and inspired a lot of young kids and
made a huge impact on that Support.
Speaker 3 (44:02):
Sean would you Say Sean white is more influential Than Kitlyn? Clark?
Speaker 13 (44:06):
Oh god, no but he should be including at?
Speaker 3 (44:08):
Fifteen, okay all, RIGHT i love. THAT i love that
answer that was.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
Always, find always find where water finds this.
Speaker 3 (44:18):
Level, yeah he had me up right to the d
and god him like he's going to, say Oh, god, yes,
no that turned the. Son Then i'm Sorry Sean white
doesn't make the. LIST i love his passion for it
up Until Kitlyn. Clark but an interesting. Nominee who else
we got?
Speaker 1 (44:34):
You?
Speaker 7 (44:34):
Yeah that Great michael And Georgia, michael you're.
Speaker 3 (44:38):
Up.
Speaker 10 (44:39):
Yeah Alexander, OVECHKIN i, mean how can you leave him?
Speaker 3 (44:44):
Out, Okay i'll say, this And i'm glad you Brought
ovechkin Because, OVECHKIN i, remember was just on the outside looking,
in and you take the accomplishments that he had over
the last five. YEARS i Think Sidney crosby was twenty
on our list five years, Ago Sidney crosby was. Twenty
oh THAT'S i Think alvechkin would have passed, him, yes
(45:04):
and would have been included on this.
Speaker 5 (45:06):
List and the fact that he's still playing now we're
still mentioning his.
Speaker 9 (45:09):
Goals he already broke the, record but now it's, like
what is the record going to be at the end
when he was when he's.
Speaker 3 (45:14):
Finished it's a really good nomination and.
Speaker 2 (45:15):
Among his, accomplishments perhaps the greatest championship parade speech of
the last quarter.
Speaker 1 (45:21):
Century by the, way it's a fascinating thing, too BECAUSE
i think we In america definitely would care a lot
more About avechkin, too where it's like something Like crosby
winning the UH i For complit, medal the gold medal For.
Canada like again we're talking that's like the height Of
crosby and it's kind of come down from, there Whereas
avechkin's risen. Up BUT i would say there's not a
(45:43):
lot Of americans who would care much on that twenty
ten gold.
Speaker 3 (45:46):
Medal this is this is An american dominated. List LIKE
i will say that there are a few international athletes
we Mentioned Usaint bolt was on the. List i'll mention
another That isaac mentioned at the, Time Leo messi was. Ninth,
Okay Leel messi was ninth on the.
Speaker 5 (46:02):
List place still on the. LIST i just think maybe
he's not.
Speaker 3 (46:05):
Ninth, yeah he.
Speaker 2 (46:06):
Was he was, ninth and since then he has won
A World, cup which he hadn't up until that.
Speaker 5 (46:10):
Point that's a really good.
Speaker 1 (46:11):
Point and he's now won In america too with em.
Olss if any watches, that, Yeah i'm just, saying like
they spend all that money to bring him over here
to try to make him the next big thing In,
america A New.
Speaker 5 (46:22):
JERSEY i really wanted to he.
Speaker 7 (46:24):
WON i did not know.
Speaker 5 (46:25):
That, yes But, alex that's a great.
Speaker 6 (46:27):
One you know who's got a great one Is barb And.
Illinois we go back To. Illinois land Of, Hello, yes,
please More land Of. Lincoln what's going?
Speaker 7 (46:37):
On?
Speaker 3 (46:37):
Barb?
Speaker 14 (46:38):
Hi, Well i'm not A bears. Fan how Sad I'm
Green bay out of the. Way how About rory McElroy
even though he said it Mainly, America.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
Yes rory McElroy would be a good name to, add
but there are players who have more majors Than, Rory
like even within this. Generation Phil mickelson does Have Brooks
kepka's there with his five, Majors you've got the Career
Grand slam would be a point where you could Put
(47:11):
rory into that select, group something That phil does not.
Have But rory would be a good. NOMINEE i think
that he would be borderline in.
Speaker 5 (47:21):
THIS i agree with.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
THAT i don't think. THAT i don't know if you
would make the top twenty.
Speaker 5 (47:24):
Five Would Scotty scheffler make it over?
Speaker 7 (47:26):
Him?
Speaker 5 (47:26):
No, no you were still do you think It's.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
Rory scheffler's And? Scheffler really it's because it's been over
the last like four or five, years Like rory had
this you, know. DROUGHT i guess if you, will between
winning The masters this past year and then the last
time he won a, Major so it was like eleven
years of him trying to break through and not being
able to do. IT i think it's a really good.
Nominee ryder cups what he's meant To Team europe in that.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
Fashion, absolutely is it still twenty first century so much
dominated By Tiger woods that would make it hard to
put yes anyone up? There, yeah one hundred.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
Percent, hey, guys correct me If i'm, wrong And i'm
curious as to where this person was in twenty twenty
and when this was done in twenty. Twenty but if
we talked About Kobe bryant, YET Nba, championships gold, medals
sixty point.
Speaker 3 (48:13):
Games, yeah this was done at the end of at
the end of twenty. Years, yeah so it was following his.
Passing he was.
Speaker 5 (48:21):
SIXTH i think he would still be on the list
of top twenty.
Speaker 3 (48:24):
Five, absolutely, yes there's this was the Top So bolt was,
Seven kobe was. Six the guys In isaac mentioned ever.
Before Serena williams was, Five Michael phelps was, Four Tiger woods,
Three Lebron james, two And Tom brady. Won that's what
it was in twenty. Twenty it Was december of twenty,
twenty late in the year that we did this. Ranking
(48:47):
that's what the top seven. Was we've named a lot
of the. NAMES i can't wait to tell you the
ones that we've left, out which we'll we'll do here
in a. Second but let's take one more. Call who
do we Got Jason.
Speaker 7 (48:56):
Prolific this is the word that comes to. Mind everyone
In Los angeles market knows his. NAME i think he
calls every radio station in. Town It's solomon From Los.
Angeles welcome to the.
Speaker 11 (49:07):
Show, yes, wow, MAN i am. Honored, Well Happy New,
year w, buddy great. SHOW i love the coupling of
the three of. You you sort of store my thunder
a little. Bit as much AS i despise his off court,
Antics lebron still goes on that list who has accomplished
(49:28):
what he has at his age in the past a
couple of. SEASONS i don't know if anybody that is
that a superban athlete at his. Age so you got
to put him in that top?
Speaker 3 (49:39):
List would would you put him at number one Above Tom? Brady?
Speaker 10 (49:44):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (49:45):
Wow? Possibly And i'll tell you. WHY i, MEAN i
followed both, sports AND i know the quarterback is, like you,
know the big thing in, football, right you Know tom doesn't,
Block he doesn't you, know he didn't get. Passes he
didn't he wasn't a Running lebron is Ultimate Swiss Army,
knix who plays all those positions as good as he
(50:06):
does in the in basketball or in any sport for that.
Matters SO i might have to put him With. Tom.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Yeah, Interesting you KNOW.
Speaker 9 (50:14):
I don't like it, Either BUT i also was like
Does lebron go Now number? One MAINLY i was gonna
say because he's still actively.
Speaker 3 (50:23):
Playing, sure The Bubble championship was had already. Occurred, yeah
so so that was part of.
Speaker 9 (50:28):
This it would just be because the scoring title and
you're still actively, playing and we're talking about top. Athletes
so it's Like Tom, brady you're not played, anymore you,
Know Like i'm not saying, yeah you're still in, there
BUT i do think i'd give.
Speaker 3 (50:40):
You here's the, Thing Brady's Super bowl win with The
buccaneers was not included when we did, this so he
has so he would have added added one.
Speaker 5 (50:48):
More.
