week looked just like this.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yeah, are you what you're gonna cut this Friday?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Not again for the before the specials.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
No, that's a white way to do it.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I'm getting it because I need to get it cut
a couple of weeks before so it has a chance
to kind of grow out.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Okay, all right, I didn't know that's how that works.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
It's too long.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Generally a white way I get.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I get.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
I get it cut four days before things.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Four days.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Yeah, because that's us.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Tell us when do you get your hair cut? Yeah?
Best two things.
Speaker 5 (01:47):
First off, John glasgow As always joined us justification and
he poops two times a day. And then also it
should be the David Perdue experience. Oh sorry, no, a
David Ford experience. I like because A because the means
that's David a David Purdue experience.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Like it. Yeah, the voice you're listening to is Joel
behind the glass.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Yeah uh, I mean Damon's out gallivanting around Europe.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Different.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
He was around bagpipes in Spain. But Dan Duncan's with us.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, I'm from that place, Spain. No, Scotland, Scotland, the
bagpipes comes back with an accent.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
He's coming back with the same Jamaican accent that he
does for every country. Do you have a good Scottish accent?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
See my my grandfather obviously like did and I don't
try it because no, I'm Southern, Like I have a
Southern And my grandfather was like came to like Sheboygan,
Wisconsin and then like Kansas City, Missouri was where he
lived most of his life. And so he has no
like we were. We are just so far apart.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
But you can't do it. You can you can do
a Scottish accent.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
No, I'm not gonna try. Yeah, I have too much respect.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I want to say, I don't put him on it.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
But his I was like, I'm doing my grandpa's accent
all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
What like the yeah accent.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Well that's that's because he sounds as long as you
sound dumb, you're probably hitting the nail on the head. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
All right, Paul, I've.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Heard about I've heard about your family. Though he probably
deserved it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah, up to the big moonshine still in the sky.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
All right, should we talk sports.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Let's talk sports.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
People are here for what people are here for and politics?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
All right, first topic of man, Anthony Edwards. He's just
hanging out in our topics all the time. Uh. He
said that it was tougher back when Michael Jordan. He
said it was tougher back when it is now. But
(04:04):
I don't think anybody had skills other than Michael Jordan.
So basically the league was more raw, more unskilled. Michael
Jordan had all the skills and the Edwards has been
all over the place past couple weeks. Also, one thing
that I love that he said this week was that
he and Booker were coming for the gold in twenty
twenty eight. I love that because he left Jason Tatum out.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Well in the shot. It was like him and book
But he said so it was like in a moment.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
It was in a moment I just can I just
give some inside baseball to everyone listening right now. We
we ran pre show before we were here, and we
went through like five or six topics that we we
had bangers on. Nate just called through a topic that
we actually didn't run through. Now we were gonna get
(04:57):
to it as top of the list. I know, but
did you? But we edited the list deeply. I had
those in like the middle to hang on to the
middle because we're going on. Okay, we didn't just do
the with the with the Trump.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
With the n Bridge sound no, no, no, no, let's say this.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
You got okay, we're done with the Inside Baseball. Okay,
here's the deal with uh Ant and book. They didn't
think in clips they got cut up. I'm sure Jason
tam is gonna be on that team, and if he's not,
they're gonna lose.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Yeah, I would, that's a good call.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Was Jordan the only skilled player?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
You know?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Like I hate that.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Argument because like the Globe Trotters were invented way before
all of this, Yeah they were, and they're voice killed,
you know, like was it as many of them?
Speaker 3 (05:43):
You know? Obviously? Not?
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Do people practice more? Are there more skilled players now?
For sure. That doesn't mean Jordan was the only one skilled.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Now he was.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
He the most athletic, clearly, clearly. But you know what
stops athletics in them, the bad boys pistons. They beat
him up for a while when you're in the air.
Don't nobody care about less when you get that elbow
to the chess. So you know, you can and can say, oh,
we saw skilled, and I do think he's highly skilled
and alway played the highest skill. Very few of them
took an elbow to the chess or to the face.
(06:11):
And that'll change how athletic or skilled you think you are.
You're gonna be a lot different. So like you can't
watch in Isaiah Thomas with his ball handle skills and
be like, oh, nobody was skilled back there.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
It's just not the case, you know. Yeah, it's just
more specialized skills.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Now, Yeah, I mean showtime obviously. Yeah, there's a handful.
I get what he's saying in the sense of like
it was a bit more overpowering.
Speaker 6 (06:37):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Like the the some of the guys
that played in the NBA than are are dinosaurs now sure,
like you cannot you could not win with the teams
that won.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
They also don't shoot hook shots anymore, and Keen dominated
the league yeah with hook shots, So like, what are
we talking about? I also thought there wasn't a three
point line for like also Jordan's early days, especially in college, Like,
what are we talking about?
Speaker 4 (07:05):
So I can't look at a Pete Merrivig and say
that wasn't skilled. That's still one of the more skilled
ball hands we've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
I don't think you should bring a hook shot back.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
All right, let's go dad.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
It's it's unblockable.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Yeah, it's also goofy, and it's actually not it's kind
of not predictable.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
What do you mean it's not predictable. The second greatest
scorer of all time. It's his signature shot.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yeah, he's seven to one.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yeah, everybody, there's plenty of seven foot plus guys.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Someone would touch. Like he had very rare skill set
of things I want to throw.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I'm just saying, if Giannis learned a skyhook, Yeah, have
you seen free throw?
Speaker 3 (07:40):
It takes him a bit, but it doesn't look but
you can learn.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
He doesn't have touch. There's something I want to throw. Something.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
This is like I thought about this like a basketball
kind of comparison thing to my old generation new generation,
right Lebron Now, this is kind of a crazy I
think Lebron Now, I had to thought, is Lebron now
still more athletic than like a young Magic Johnson? Yes, yes,
that's crazy to think about it. It really is, like you
know what I'm saying, like a young Magic, similar size,
similar boot. Yeah, and you watch old Lebron and young Magic,
(08:12):
You're like, I think they're a twenty year old Magic
in a almost.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Well so, so I watched the video. Excuse me, I
watched the video the other day of Jordan's when he
was with the Wizards. Yeah, and I mean he scored
I think he's he scored fifty one at thirty eight.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Yeah. Wait wait can I make it come a pause?
You the other day, we're sitting presumably at your house. Yeah,
and you're like, what I'm gonna do with my time
right now is pull up I'm gonna google Jordan Wizards highlights. No,
it was like that to do for an hour.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It was like a video essay or something. Okay, so
makes it worse. I throw I throw it on while
I'm doing other stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Yeah, okay, you did not help. It's a video essay.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
It was like a video essay Jordan's Wizards high school kid. Yeah,
it was. It was great. But I so they're talking
like he's thirty eight when he's with the Wizards, which
is Lebron's what thirty nine forty now who knows he's
thirty eight? Plush and watching Jordan, who still could play obviously,
(09:17):
I mean putting up fifty points, okay, putting up multiple
thirty five plus game. The way that he was doing it, though,
was not the way Lebron is doing He wasn't overpowering anybody.
He wasn't out right. But I'm saying, like watching those
two and going like the way Lebron is doing it
now is insane.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Okay, but what are we talking about? Stop it? Stop it,
stop it. Go ahead, what you got, you're But the
entire the nutrition is different, the style of game is different.
Like if you look at Lebron James coming into the
NBA from high school, because I think he was the
last class to actually it was a couple after, but yeah,
it was one of the last last classes to go
(09:59):
straight in NBA. Point me in you look at Lebron then,
and you look at Magic back in his early days.
Their body types are similar versus they diverge through their years.
In the NBA. Magic obviously doesn't bulk up, doesn't have
the nutrition, isn't training like lebron Is doesn't have the
(10:19):
trainers with him, versus lebron Is obviously, you know, spending
millions of dollars on his body every year. So, like,
I think this comparison of like, look at the NBA,
look at their athleticism, look at their skill set versus
what what was? It's a moving target, sure, because if
you if you transported that world of people into this
(10:44):
day and age with all of the context, I think
that they do very similar things, and the NBA evolves
very similarly, and they themselves evolve into the style of game.
I don't think there's different. It's not like we've gotten
strong as a human race.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Well I'm saying, though evolved.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
You think, like we just know how to train our
bodies better.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Lebron didn't have hasn't had to adjust too, like he
hasn't had to adjust game.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
They're dance going back to the steroids.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
I'm saying. I'm just saying generally, there are versions of
you can take stuff to exactly like everyone is taking creatine.
No one took creatine.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Like it was crazy that Michael Jordan lift weights, you
know what.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I yeah, Like we're like, what he's lifting weights, He's like,
keep beating me up, which like it's just it's responding to.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Like, you know, trying to get a competitive age. Yeah,
I guess, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
I'm looking at Lebron at thirty nine do what he's doing,
and then you look at a young Magic Johnson and
you go, it's just again, this is one of those
A few times I'm like, I'm gonna publicly be an
awf Lebron.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, because like it makes no sense.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It makes no sense.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Here's the last thing I want to say about Ant's comments. Yes,
after watching the fever rules during the Olympics, okay, I
can don't know that. I can. I didn't watch the
NBA a lot before the playoffs. I'm going to miss
the Foeba rules and it's going to make the NBA
even more boring to me, because I mit what what
(12:13):
it is saying is like it was more physical, more
physical game. And I agree with him and to that degree,
we just saw a in my opinion, a better version
of basketball. And I want the NBA to to go
back to more Foeba esque style rules that like, allow
the game to be more physical. You have more physical
(12:35):
specimens in a less physical game today, and that makes
no sense to me. Let them, let them use their
physicality in a way that shows off their skill set.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
The for the NBA to do that. What they need
to do, though, is that that I don't know if
that starts with Adam Silver or if that where wherever
it goes. But it's the officials fault because the officials
are the ones and lebron But to me, well, to me,
what makes the NBA boring and what can make games
(13:07):
unwatchable is when there is a foul and it is
ten minutes of replaying the foul for a flagrant one,
where you go, that wasn't that big of a deal
where both guys are fine. It was a physical foul
where two athletic, fast people collided, right.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
I'm protecting them assets.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
I get that, But you're built into to These players
aren't built like they were back in the day in
the sense of like the pictures of dudes, I don't
know what that dude's name is playing at the garden.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
He got a whole neck brace on.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
But I'm saying, when you're when you're watching it, when
you're watching a game, and both guys are fine and
standing there.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Oh you forgot about the mouths of the palace, and
referees they're not they're not even sniffing at no more.
There's many too many billions on the line. They're like, hey,
y'all need a moment, calmed down, nobody haven fight.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
But they don't. But there's so many there's so many
times that referees insert themselves into games and they give
out double technicals because they're either too lazy to actually
write it. They're either double text so it's too lazy
to hold on, let me, let me just they're either
too lazy to actually analyze what went wrong, or they
(14:26):
just give out a flagrant one because they don't want
to let hard fouls go and games actually get entertained
in physical or they give flagrant two's based on reputation.
The game is not officiated well anymore, and that's what
makes the game boring, and that's what slows it down
(14:46):
in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
So I did a show the other day and I
end up talking to a ref who refs like SEC
basketball and feeble stuff overseas, and and.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
What they said was, was it a husband of a comic?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
No, no, no, no, no, it wasn't that at all.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
It was random, right, and they were listening to I
had some bit about basketball anyway, I was taught them afterwards.
And what they said was, I thought so interested. Like
one thing they learned is from like an some old school,
you know. Refuge taught them was like, your job at
the end of the day is for all of this
to come to an amicable end. That's your job. And
this is a professional refeence. And I go, that's the
(15:22):
realist thing I've ever heard nobody like. So they'll be
like I think they do. Like SEC women too, like
don Staley's be giving it to you know, yeah, because
she knows what she's doing. She's trying to come like
I'm gonna fight for what I gotta fight for it,
and you're gonna give me this call, and you know, like,
I gotta give you this call. And that's always how
it's been. I don't know why we pretend like it's
not how it's been. So like, so you give a
(15:43):
double tech or whatever you're like, hey, shut up and
go play. It's the equivalent of your parents saying, y'all
give each other a hug, you know, after something wrong,
and that's just that, and that keeps the game moving.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
But it always but but a lot of times it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
What do you want? You want on the fist fight?
You want hockey? What do you want? No?
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Want the referees to do their job.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
You can't do that job.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I can't do that job. No, but I'm not signing
up to do that job. These refs are saying I
can do this job.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
No.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
They're they're saying, let's keep this let's keep this amicable,
let's keep it balance.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
They're not saying that, they're saying, I don't want to
do this job. Double double text. Somebody shoot free throw
so that I don't have to actually do real work
where I have to answer for the calls that I
am making.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Can I be? You guys have very different opinions about this.
That's great is their room in both of y'all's minds
that the NBA could stand to keep the game up
and not slow it down with so many tiki tag fouls,
so many hand checks, arm checks, like can that can
that come back into the game in some form or
(16:48):
fashion so that every time someone's on someone's back, they
don't just call a foul.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I hope.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
So because I'm somebody, I've seen somebody online call like
ethical hoops, like ethical hoops, Like there's so many unethical hoopers.
The fact that like James hard On have you know,
he's had whole games built his carier is built at
the free throw line and it's very different. Yeah, Like
I wouldn't show him kid to be like James Harden.
So you know, I think that there definitely needs to
be a shift. But if you're talking about going back
(17:16):
to the thing, I think a little bit of feb.
I think the main thing that makes the fever rules
and those fever games dope is the fans.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Like fans make everything better. You know.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
I don't think it's on the list, but like major
Baseball was like the do you see the like when
there was a Tigers and Yankees played and it was
at the little it was a Little League World Series
class or whatever, and it was just kids in the
audience in the stands. Way more exciting because those kids
want to be there, right like anybody, anytime you have
a stand full of people that people who want to
be there. It's not coep. The games elevated, you know
(17:47):
what I mean? Like excitement, the intensity is elevated. So
I think a lot of it has to do with
like it's probably just a bunch of football French. There's
an French something drunk and it was having a good
time at the drinking red wine.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
That's that Olympic final bro insane.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Yeah, I don't know if this is a real thing.
And Dan, you can tell me. Has the n b
A entertained itself out of an entertaining product?
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I think that there is there is an adjustment coming
in the in the in the sports world where personalities
you can no longer count on the best players and
the interest in them to carry the world anymore. You
see it in golf now. The the most prominent, h
(18:39):
powerful golfers in the world are on YouTube now. Bryson
de Schambeau is an exception. He's a professional and a
YouTube golfer, but professional like the people that move the needle.
For all of the the brands that are spending money
(18:59):
to get more golf apparel, clubs, gear into the hands
of people, they're looking more at these YouTube golfers to
help move that needle than they are looking at the professionals,
and ultimately that's where the money comes from, is the shoes,
the brands. Now, yes, you have these in person experiences,
(19:20):
but again, I think the NBA is ultimately going to
need people who are all the time creating content and
fighting for the best possible entertainment entertaining product, which I
think ultimately boils down to fast games. That's why people
are gravitating towards American soccer football because it is forty
(19:42):
five minute halves. Yes, there are fouls, their restarts are quick,
there are not a ton of commercials, and people are
going to go more and more into that world of
like I don't have enough time to watch a four
hour sporting event that's slow, which.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Is wow, because Creek is coming to the Olympics.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah. My other My other thing is get referees that
don't speak English.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
That might actually that might.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
So then what do you like? Who are you gonna
complain to? You can complain all you want that ref
does not understand you.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
This isn't this isn't look somebody, this is like an
old old school like former Yugoslavian.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
You talked about how FOBA was officiated. It was good
the guys. They could complain all they want. Steve kirk
can complain all he wants. What's he gonna do to
complain to a Turkish ref who speaks Farsie? What Steve
Kurr is not learning Farsi in six weeks before the Olympics.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I would say that ref probably has some level of English.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, I would say if you're if you're a FEBA
ref and you get hired by the NBA, but don't learn.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
You've done enough. We've done enough basketball. We don't have
to really talk basketball for two more months.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
All right. Dan came in with his head on fire
because he's getting political texts real quick.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
Brian, thanks, said, good morning, gents. I missed last week's
but big up to David and Dan doing an organic
author record episode mid fourth and ten makes a few
weeks ago just needed showing aid and bless up. Glasgow
says NBA wants high scores, that's why the game benefits
offensive and Brian Biggs says this is low key like
(21:21):
an author record conversation as well. I like the comedy
and the culture moments.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
I dig it, another.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
One, another one. Yeah, hey, we're still here. There are
those that are not, but we still here, all right,
Nates up?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, Dan, I mean we're all sick of it, but
Dan particularly just furious with the texts, the the the calls.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Here's okay, So we're gonna talk about the next three
topics all have one thing in common too soon.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
The first one is this push to get out and vote.
I get it. There was a time in this country
where it was very difficult to vote, and I get
that there are voting registrations and important things to make
sure that everyone has their shot. But literally, the last
two weeks, I've had both sides of the aisle show
(22:12):
by my house asking for money. Oh, like, physically shows
you out, Yeah, physically show up at my house.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Yeah, at canvas show.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I get text messages from Hey, this is Kamala Harris,
this is Donald Trump, this is Governor Brian Kemp, and like,
I'm like, no, it's not so your marketing plan is
stupid because we all know that it's not you. We
know that you bought a bunch of phone numbers. Some
junior level intern wrote some copy of like how can
(22:43):
we get people to click on a link that we're
embedding in this text message? Right, And I'm like, I'm
I'm pulling Nate's Tom Brady. I don't care. It is
too soon. We can have this conversation October fourth to
November fourth. We can have thirty days to get people,
make sure they're registered, make sure they know where their
voting precincts are. All for these things. Both of these
(23:06):
candidates can take a flying leap off of a cliff.
For my as far as I'm concerned and.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Talk about wants a good.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I'm done. I'm done. I'm like muting. We're muting this
conversation where we don't need these debates. Everyone already generally
knows who they're voting for or is just generally not
voting for either of these candidates. Like there's nothing more
that we need to know. It is so polarized these days.
There's no one in the middle being like I'm curious.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Oh your curiosity is gone?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Oh yeah, I love how you.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
Treat this like Christmas season. It's like, is it time
for the treat to be up? And as a time
for the is it time.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
To get people now?
Speaker 2 (23:48):
In local politics, I have a very different take on this,
just for the record, because like I think, like I
actually agree with what you said, and that makes me
feel weird. But in general, I do think from an
national politics standpoint that has very little to do with
most people's everyday lives. Yeah, the obsession, Yeah, three sixty
(24:08):
five too much, it's too much.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
One thing I do. I think I learned this. I
think I saw a tuning. Dude is Aaron Tuning. Shout
out to Aaron Chuney. When he gets those messages that
people who don't like, he just responds back. I'm fourteen
years old, bro, I just respond back all the time.
I'm fourteen years old.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
It's a good idea, I go.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
I've been doing that for you. I don't know how
many years ago I saw that, but I do that
every time.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
So shout out to you. Erin because so many people
think I'm a fourteen year old boy.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
The only time that I respond, The only time I
respond is when they send me a text that's meant
for my dad. For some reason, I don't know if
it's because at some point this number was on like
my dad's yeah plan. So every once in a while
I'll get a text, it's like, Michael Trump needs your help,
and I just send back, this is Michael Owens and
(24:53):
I Michael Owens want Trump to rot in jail and
just something like that, and just it's just fun for me. Yeah,
I've I've tried to sell my dad's house so many times, jeez,
because they'll be like, hey, Michael, are you interested in
selling this property and fiery Branch, I'm like, yes, here's
here's the number.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Positive right now.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yeah, I'm like, here's here's the number I'm willing to
sell it for. And then I'll just send a screenshot
to my dad and be like, I'm taking twenty percent
of this if it works. So I see, here's what
I say. Shoot your shot.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Wait, so are you guys like here for the circus
that's now in town and you're like, let's let's have
fun with this for the next three months.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
The only thing I'm I am like, let's have fun
with is I Look. I saw some highlights of the
d n C on TikTok and.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
How everyone engaged with it. Yeah, don't watch the actual thing.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Oh what am I gonna watch?
Speaker 5 (25:50):
They invited a bunch of influencer content creators this year two.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Invited.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
You had a dude who's like I don't know where.
I forgot where about him, but he hit me up.
He was like, yo, I got you in.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Did you want to go?
Speaker 5 (26:04):
No?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Like when I was like, it's going to be day.
What I'm gonna do? Like it wasn't enough.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
It wasn't like an indie.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
It's in Chicago.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
It was in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
You should have just gone and just hung out at Chicago.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I really thought about it, and then I was like,
what I think they wanted me to like actually make stuff.
And I was like I just just hang out, Like
I wouldn't want to do stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I just like I get that the Democrats are trying
to have fun. And look after the rn C was
like we're fun. We have kid Rock and whole Cogan
and I was like that was fun in ninety six. Yeah,
what a good time and yeah, and then the Democrats
were like, whooping in somebody relevant, little John.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
We're not gonna do that. We're not gonna We're like
they're the same.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Not no, no, they're not the same.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Not Relevant has similar peaks the same time to this day.
Speaker 5 (26:51):
Screaming yeah doesn't get you pumped.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
No, it does I'm saying it worked on me. Yeah,
worked on me. It's just like it caught me off guard.
I'm just like scrolling TikTok. And then when they were
like Georgia, how do you vote or whatever? And then
little John does a performance, I was like, all right,
I guess you got me.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
I didn't move it.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
You did move it before?
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Stop behind your face? What's the what's Tim Allen's neighbor
and home? And f Wilson? You look like Wilson? Yeah?
I I too soon. Yeah it look there are certain
things that need to happen, and we can we have
a certain amount of time. I will be thinking about
what I'm cooking for Thanksgiving when this really matters.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Oh yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
That that is the same, like, oh do we like,
let me start pulling together this recipe? How am I
smoking this giant turkey? Making this thing delicious? Oh? And
now let me like go on a neutral website. That's
like pulling everyone's like what their platforms are, what they
really what ultimately their cabinets are gonna vote for? Push
(27:58):
through do? Yeah, and I'm going to look at that
and be like, which ones of these do I actually
believe in?
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Is there anything you feel personally that you prepare for
earlier than anybody else.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Oh, I thought you were about to ask, like what
am I? What are my voting? That's a different show,
that's off the record. Thank you, we're a sports podcast.
This is just too soon. What are the things that
I get ready for too early? I mean I've been
ready for I've been watching college football, like you know,
(28:36):
shows segments, early predictions, and that that doesn't bother me
at all. And that's too soon. We're gonna talk about
that in a second. But that's too soon. So I
would say college football is probably the one thing that
I actually don't look forward to. I enjoy more before
we get there, because it's so stress inducing once I'm
(28:59):
in it.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
You but you like the rev up to college football?
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Yeah, because I'm not gonna I can't lose yet. That's real.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
That is fair, that's real.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
And George is gonna lose this year. And we haven't
lost anyone but in Alabama in like three or four years.
For twenty twenty was last time we lost to anyone
not named Alabama. Do you think it's gonna be I think, dude,
this schedule is just just hey.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
I just want to. I just want everybody to know, Dan,
you do this. I respect it too.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Dan like prepares his heart at Texas, like I don't miss.
Yeah it's at Alabama. If you get out of that
with just two losses and make the playoff, I'll be ecstatic.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
As long as it's not Texas.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
I just I was just gonna be good.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
I respect.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I respect the preparation that I was trying to think of,
like a sports thing that I or season that out like,
oh I like the offseason.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Yeah, I like.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
I mean I think, you know, like basketball, when like
free agency opens, I do appreciate free agency frenzy. Free
agency is a lot, but it's a big letdown because
it's like, oh, now I don't care about this for
like three months now.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Yeah, it's just.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Like, oh, you've got a guy that I can't see
for three months. So like I had to even remove
myself and I say, I don't where you're gonna sign.
She's got me waiting for three months. I'm about to
watch baseball.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Yeah you know, yeah, I mean, yeah, my mine's probably
the NFL. I So I started watching Hard Knocks this week.
I try to let a couple episodes of Hard Knocks
Get going because that Chicago okay, so, but also like
they introduced off season Hard Knocks, so it followed the
(30:32):
Giants this offseason, so like you saw their draft, you
saw all the Saquan drama, they followed their GM.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
That's too much. No, it was no football has football
has done always done a great job of telling the stories.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
It was so because the players so good.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, everything about it was phenomenal. I'm so excited about
the falcon.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Ud That's a great point. Like why doesn't like they
do like a moneyball style behind the scenes of I
mean there's too much. I'm sure there's too much inside
baseball handshakes, like like get made technology.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
No, not not. I watched last night. It was just
happened to be on.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
I think after the Braist game was watching and they'll
show clips of podcasts of Mookie Bets podcast. Yeah, I
think Mookie Best is a phenomenal baseball player, generational talent.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Right, he has the most boring podcast.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
It's so bad.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I was like, what you.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
How you're so exciting on the field.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
If I may step into the world of like you
do a terrible job of shelling yourself baseball such a
terrible job of thes like you're not for the like
it's like you need help almost.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
It's almost like Baseball despises their fans. Yeah, and like despises.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Okay, that's that's fine. What would you do differently?
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I started Mookie Best podcast.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
You know, like a lot of these basketball podcasts, there's
like a de facto host that with you get somebody
who has real charisma in there in the podcast to
help drive the kind.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Is it an MLB podcast?
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Yeah, but it's just it's it's Mooki and another player.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Yeah, which can be fine.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yeah, but that's not the MLB marketing themselves. What could
the MLB do to engage younger fans. I'm genuinely curious
as someone who you just.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
You find guys that actually have personality and you put
them everywhere.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Bring this weekend baseball. That's an easy this week baseball?
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Okay, like that's real.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Bring back this weekend baseball. Get rid of these ridiculous
blackout restrictions, like Iowa has zero professional teams. Five teams
are blacked out in Iowa.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
It I mean, I agree that this is that is key,
the fact that I can't watch the Braves. Yes, and
as a former season ticket holder, is a it's.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
I mean, obviously this is not my world, and there's
a lot of logistics to it, but to me, it's
like make baseball obtainable, like make it easy to access.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
I think they tried to take a Monday night football
approach to like an NFL approach, and they just don't
understand the dynamics or there's so many fewer NFL games
that you can do that can make it. You can
make it this thing that like I watch every Sunday
night football game, every Monday night football game, and it
is a little bit inconsequential to if I'm a fan
(33:21):
of those teams, that I'm gonna get as much football
as I can while it's here.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Yeah, I think football does a good job of selling
themself as an event. I think baseball tries itself as
an event. But really it's a story, right, A long,
a long story. So how do you get people in
gage sell the storylines? Yeah, none of the storylines are sold.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, it's a chapter book.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
It's a chapter book. But they're like, no, it's an event.
It's like not on a Tuesday at seven, it's not.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
It would be interesting if they did a Hard Knocks
like how they do the nd season Hard Knocks, where
like if you're like, I don't want to watch the games,
but I will watch this kind of like evolving storyline
that feels more like a movie. If people would tune
in more into that world.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
You gotta have personalities again, and Mookie Bits it was
so bad and I genuinely think he's a great player.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
And an exciting player.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Is the language barrier an issue for baseball now that
there's so many players that genuinely don't speak English should
be but even the ones that do.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
The only reason I would push back on that a
little bit is because the NBA has Jokic, Yannis speak.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
They all speak very they speak very good, and they
love their They like well joannest Owns Milwaukee like they
they they are on they love that this.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
Ye, but I'm saying you can.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
You can.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
You can showcase guys who don't speak English still. You
can still put them in commercials, you can still give
them signature shoes, you can still like Yeah, but the
fact that the only Baseball silhouette shoe wise that I
can think of is Griffy. I mean, you think I
was thinking about this the other day, I was like,
Derek Jeter, as much as I cannot stand him, one
(35:11):
of the I mean shortstop in New York, maybe the
most recognizable Yankee of all time, oh for sure, Literally
such a sex symbol that he was giving girls gift
baskets after one night stands.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
That's just throw.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
But I'm saying, but with the with the but I'm saying,
like with the Jordan that that was his reputation, like
off the field, so like he's a point, he's a
player off the field. He's a player on the field.
He's with the Jordan brands. Not a single signature.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
Shoe that you but like actually really.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
That you would wear today.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
They were like my school, they were like some, uh yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
I think like one, he'sn't playing baseball. I had no no,
but like as like a sneaker. I know, I'm talking
about like Jordan cleats that right.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
That's what I'm saying, Like why why why aren't baseball
players getting signature sneakers because.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
No one cares.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
No one's as cool as king Griffy run is not.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Ronald Cunya is great. And this is where I want
to get to in this baseball conversation that we didn't
plan on. That is good. We're in the middle of baseball. Yeah,
that Ronald Cunya is. All of his personality is the
way he plays baseball. He could be just as good
getting the exact same stats. And if you turn down
his volume, you wouldn't know who he is exactly. But
(36:42):
you turn up the volume and you're like, Okay, I
get a sense of it. I don't need you to
talk to me. You talk all you want on the field,
and like, I like it. Now, there are other players
who just fundamentally don't. And I think that again, athletes
want to be This is a general sports take. Athletes
(37:02):
want to be athletes. They don't want to be characters
and stories, and so they hide behind. I don't want
to do interviews. I don't want to do these things.
I want to show up. I want to do the thing,
and then I want to leave, which I understand their
perspective on that, but I think these leagues have to
come to them and say, we need to partner together
to make you celebrities not athletes, and make people fall
(37:25):
in love with you the way they fall in love
with musicians. And Ronald Acunya is somebody who you don't
have to He doesn't have to talk a lot because
he is so excellent and he is so loud, but
he is rare to be that good and to emote
that much as he plays. He's a little bit of
like a des Bryant, where you're like, I don't ever
need to hear you talk. You speak with the way
(37:45):
you play the game. But again, you need a much
wider spectrum than that to create fans, and baseball in
particular is not creating fans of people. And that's a problem.
And they to that degree, there's less and less people
like they're playing baseball. Think about your high school who,
(38:07):
like every girl in every high school goes and watches football.
Oh yeah, no. I when I was in high school,
I didn't attend one single baseball game.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
You play half the time, play on if you don't
have it on campus.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
So the best athletes in the school also played baseball,
but no one went and watched. And so it's how
do how does baseball become the cool sport that people
want to watch?
Speaker 1 (38:34):
I will say one thing that's going to help them
a lot that MLB had nothing to do with is
the backyard baseball is coming back.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (38:43):
That means it's gonna get kids playing baseball video games again.
Oh and learning.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
I was like, backyard Baseball is a video game.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Backyard Baseball the video? Did you not play it growing up? Okay, anyway,
let's all right, let's stay in the world of kind
of like the personality the marketing. Because Oklahoma State started
putting QR codes on the back. Yeah, yeah, Pablo Sanchez
one of the greatest fictional athletes of all time, if
not the greatest fictional athlete of all time.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
The fact that you knew his name just off the rip.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
Oh, he was on all of all of them we had.
So we had backyard baseball, backyard football, and he was
fantastic in both of them. All right, anyway, So yeah,
Oklahoma State's putting QR codes on the back. And the
QR code leads to I believe just the players like
nil profile. I don't think it like leads like a
I don't know exactly what it leads to.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
It probably leads to their collect just to.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Link tree or whatever whatever their version.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Of the twenty one dollars a month to join this club.
Speaker 4 (39:45):
Why are you that close to my helmet? That's my
thing is, then are you that close to my helmet?
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Is that I I a emotion replays.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
I guess I am pausing the game so I can
click on your helmet.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I'm I am pro n I L and I'm pro
these players having opportunities like this. But this feels very
much like a we tried, knowing that there's not gonna
be any results. But they but the school can say
we're trying.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, I don't. I just don't.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
I don't see.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Hey, get off this before they get us for the
ESPN gets us for Uh it's.
Speaker 5 (40:24):
Muted, it's muted.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Uh, Yeah, I don't. I don't.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
I don't just give just just give me the money,
like just or go to my website. There's too much access.
I don't need that on my helmet. I don't know
who that's for. I don't know who's got a phone
scanning helmets. I'm not pausing a game to see that.
I wonder how I.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
Can contribute to these young man's and I'm not doing that.
I don't know. I don't know who that's for. That's
that's a weird.
Speaker 4 (40:47):
That's gonna I think it's going to trying to sell
people on like the potential players that come there.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
But it's like, what is to what end? How does
this work?
Speaker 2 (40:54):
It is literally putting cash app names, venmo names on
the back of their jerseys like that this is this
is where we're going, and it's ass is as nine.
This makes no sense. You could run a spot in
(41:15):
the stadium for every single game for your hardcore fans
who are in the stadium like Tennessee does, and say
give to our collective, like give ten dollars, give five dollars,
here's what you get, here's the access you get, here's
the thing you're a part of. But this of like
each player, because the reality is is each player is
(41:36):
I mean unless unless they are giving this money directly
to each one of these players, which I'm pretty sure
you can't say on the game, then they're just wearing
a a.
Speaker 5 (41:50):
You scan it and then you can credit a team
member that you you So it's a direct to a player. No, no,
you can just not credit a team member. But it
has a part. So it's like, oh, I got this
from so and so. But the minimum, I mean, you
can put whatever you want, but it starts at one hundred,
goes up to five thousand for their suggestion.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
I mean interesting, where this is going is after a
key play, a player is going to run up to
the camera and in this case turn around and be like,
right here, pay me my money for that catch, touchdown.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
Catch. I'm actually not mad at it is.
Speaker 4 (42:26):
I think it could be better after you make a
catch part of your TV deals, like you got to
put my cash up so I make it catch and
make a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
Dude, I hate this so much.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
I think it looks bad too.
Speaker 3 (42:37):
No, it's tacky, It's definitely it.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
This is While individuals might benefit from this, this is
the downfall of BA for the culture that team. Like look,
whether or not we want to acknowledge it, like, individualism
versus team mentality is a thing in sports, and this
(43:03):
is going to ruin teams from the inside out. Like
this is cancerous for a coach to try to. Like,
you know, when a player doesn't get a ball in
a game and throws a block and for a running
back and the running back scores and the wide receiver
comes over and no one's paying him his money, but
he was the one that unlocked that run. How do you,
as a coach come to that player and say keep blocking.
Speaker 3 (43:26):
Just for funsies.
Speaker 4 (43:27):
Dan, I'm gonna do this just for fundie because I
think this will get spicy.
Speaker 3 (43:30):
Right. This is just right.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
This is the most capitalistic idea, and what you're describing
was the most I would say communist idea.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
Oh, I believe in communism as an idea.
Speaker 3 (43:45):
Wait, I know you shoudn't meet me before you leg
this isn't communism doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
It doesn't work. I agree with that. Tell its sports No.
I look, I'm all for nil.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
I'm all for like.
Speaker 2 (44:03):
The teams specifically. I actually don't love the like marketing deal, Like,
like you know, this quarterback gets a private jet deal
and he is trading access to a private jet so
he can flex on his like you know, team members
or show off to his girlfriend that he can fly
to you know X number of places. I think those
(44:25):
are stupid. I don't think that they're going to return.
I think those companies are going to go through the
phase of like, let's do this, and like ultimately they
don't generate ROI from those investments, and so that's gonna
go away, and so like I'm fine with it right now.
What I do think is like at and T partnering
with Georgia to be the you know on the headsets,
(44:45):
and they're stroking a check to the to the team.
The players on that team are should be part of
that deal and collective bargaining into that deal, which NIL
is creating the space for. So there's ways for the
team to pay dollars to the team and even wait
them in specific manners of playing time and snaps and
(45:07):
those types of things that I think is equally weighted
versus alignment versus a quarterback versus a wide receiver that
fundamentally fans are too stupid to understand how football is played.
So in the NFL, a left tackle is probably the
third highest paid person on the team. In college, that's
(45:28):
not going to happen because no one's gonna scan their
stupid QR code to be like, let me take care
of my left tackle. So I think my biggest take
is this is one desperate two might work and therefore
leading to the degradation of the game.
Speaker 3 (45:52):
Oh I mean.
Speaker 5 (45:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (45:55):
I also think that you know, this is kind of
a sign of how much he's an XFL thing, like
you might.
Speaker 3 (46:02):
As well have he hate me with cash up on
the back, right, But.
Speaker 4 (46:05):
I think it's just a sign of how how much
money they had been making off of these athletes, and
now they're like everybody's trying to get every dime that
they felt like they should have got, you know, in
previous years.
Speaker 3 (46:17):
But no, I just I find that interesting.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
I'm just I'm not a fan, and maybe this is
naive of me to think that it could stay. I
just don't like it bleeding into the actual game. If
if you want to have a car dealership commercial, if
you want to get that and drive around campus, if
you want to be on every commercial every break, go
(46:40):
go get that, man, Go do that if you want
to if you want to sign jerseys every weekend, if
you want to sell your bull ring on eBay, it's yours.
Speaker 2 (46:49):
I agree with that.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
But the second that the game itself is interrupted.
Speaker 3 (46:54):
How's it? And how's the game interrupted? Though?
Speaker 1 (46:56):
But I'm saying like yeah, and then if like if
a QR code is popping up during a.
Speaker 3 (47:01):
Game, but you're you're doing it like the players right now.
Speaker 1 (47:07):
But if the next step of this is for yeah,
or the next step is that every touchdown now is.
Speaker 2 (47:14):
Popular, where like this is trackable and at the end
of the game, there's like they list out like what
players made, that's this is a game, this is game,
this is a video game.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
Oh yeah, well, I think eventually they're just gonna they're
gonna have the player intros with the cash app instead
of like it's gonna be like instead of you saying
you're college and like the pros, it's gonna be cash App.
Nathan Owens Nathan Owens, twenty five. Finmo.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
It gets, it gets really weird, it goes, It gets
really really weird in the way that like this money
flows in and out, and I I understand, I believe in. Really,
what I believe in is a meritocracy, like pay people
based off of the merit they bring to something. But
at the end end of the day, this is a
(48:03):
semi professional world. In college back in college, uh.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
It's still the wild West.
Speaker 1 (48:09):
I just think this just feels like something that the
school knows won't work.
Speaker 3 (48:14):
But it looks good work.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
I sat in the room and they were like, let's
how we don't have our collective isn't able to to
move the needle. So what we can do is we
can let players get a sense of I can make
my own way by becoming a star on the field.
Speaker 4 (48:35):
I would do this then if I'm a player, Like
remember how like the Seattle had Seahawks had like the
Legion of Boom.
Speaker 3 (48:41):
I'm like, we're a collective now.
Speaker 4 (48:43):
Sure you know what I'm saying, Like, oh, as a
like the Safeties, we are, we are one q R
code and will's put the money and then we'll have
a celebrate together when we do something together wild receivers,
like let's be a like you know what I mean,
different almost like businesses inside of businesses inside of business.
Speaker 1 (48:59):
It just feel it so like Truman Show, Like if
you remember, like the last time I remember watching The
Truman Show, because like that that whole world was we're
watching this guy twenty four hours, which means they had
the sneak the commercials in so like in the middle
of a conversation, she's like, drink this, yeah, and she
like points it to the camera. That's what this is
starting to feel like who what it is? And I'm
(49:20):
just I'm sick of it, Like I'm sick of watching
a split screen of an AT and T commercial while
the basketball game is going on. I'm sick of watching.
I just like it's it's getting to a point where
we can't even watch the entire game without the commercials
(49:41):
play through. We can't Like it used to be the
commercials were annoying, but the commercials were the commercial breaks.
And now the commercials are happening during the game. They're
happening every time out, They're happening every time that there
is a break and play.
Speaker 2 (49:55):
It is getting bad.
Speaker 4 (49:56):
Here's what's interesting. I think we all forgot why TV
was invented. You thought I was invented for your enjoyment,
for tea, for like shows and stuff. Invented to sell
two past soap, Like that's why. That's why all this
stuff was invented. It is the other stuff. It's almost
like we think is comedians that people. It's like we're
in the comedy business. No, we're in the bar business,
(50:16):
and comedy happens to be apart alcohol business. Yeah, we're
trying to sell something, and the lore is football, comedy, whatever.
But the overalltry thing is like I need to sell
this two paste, this burger king is whatever it is.
That's why I was all invented. So just you know
they're playing a game.
Speaker 1 (50:34):
Yeah, well who I'm who I am mad at is
the companies like ESPN, Okay, get off your ship box quick,
that are making billions of dollars every year and are
still that's right, become a capitalist. They're making billions of
dollars every year and they're still like, well, let's squeeze
another two million out of AT and T by putting
a thirty second ad during the start of a basketball game.
(50:57):
That's where I'm like, you were making plenty of.
Speaker 2 (50:59):
Business being his hemorrhaging money, but keep going.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
Like that's that's That's what kills me, is that when
it's like, yeah, that's very frustrating, it does bother me.
Speaker 3 (51:08):
The games you can't.
Speaker 1 (51:10):
But that's that's what I'm saying. They're the only they're
the only way to get the game, and that's they're
the only way to get the games. And they know that.
They know they're the only place to get to Like
my sports, it's a monopoly.
Speaker 3 (51:26):
Sports teams like you should not go to the games
because if.
Speaker 2 (51:31):
There are other leagues, other other sports.
Speaker 1 (51:34):
There's no other leagues. There's no other professional football league
in America.
Speaker 5 (51:37):
Our child sixteen said, uh, talking about QR codes, it
feels like passing cost of consumers because the higher ups
don't want to decrease their share exactly. Glasgow says that
they should just put the zel or cash up on
the jerseys like Dan said. And he also said that
this car code and it all gives me fundraising. You
see kids doing on the side of the road vibes.
Speaker 2 (51:56):
Everybody's a water boyd I have one last time, I
have one college football thing, and then we need to
get to the last big too soon debate. I saw
the Alabama's quarterback last year had the let A I
think or whatever. I was at the gym, I'm running
(52:21):
on the treadmill and in front of me was this
a very white person wearing that shirt. And I I
literally was like, this is what. No, I don't know.
So I need to ask you if you saw that
person walk past you wearing an Alabama Crimson tide with
(52:42):
those with that phrasing on it. No, it just said
the It was the the lank Yes a shirt, a
white frat boy walk No, there was nothing below it,
just like lank that he was wearing that. Yeah, and uh,
(53:02):
how would you feel about that?
Speaker 4 (53:04):
I'm conflicted. I'm being honest with I'm conflicted. A part
of me is like, do you know what that is?
Speaker 2 (53:11):
That's what that was my thought.
Speaker 4 (53:12):
The second part is that young black quarterback just made
twenty five hours and I'm proud of him, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 2 (53:18):
Like I don't.
Speaker 4 (53:18):
I'm admittedly conflicted. I'm admittedly conflicted, but I might pull
what I got to the side.
Speaker 3 (53:25):
What do you think? What do you think that is?
Tell me what you think I had?
Speaker 2 (53:29):
I had.
Speaker 4 (53:29):
I remember one time it was like during the pandemic,
where like people were like, you know, you see people
with a lot of letters together, and they say, you.
Speaker 3 (53:36):
Know, if you can if you know what this means? Yeah,
And it was a comic.
Speaker 4 (53:39):
I'm not gonna say the name, but they like posted
it and one of the ends in this long thing
was that, and I was like, hey, I said, hey,
just let you know that. Don't say what you think
it says like you were close, you're not there. And
then they immediately pulled it down because I don't want
to do that.
Speaker 2 (53:56):
This makes me so uncomfortable. It's uncomfortable, like this is
this this is like akin to like a white person
wearing fubu, like you're not by, you're not us in
either of these senses.
Speaker 4 (54:08):
I don't disagree, but part of me goes, listen, this
is the thing about I think this is a thing. No,
I'm pretty sure they sold the company, right.
Speaker 3 (54:18):
Uh. My thing is this you can make.
Speaker 4 (54:22):
You can like make these things that might be for
cultural like that.
Speaker 2 (54:27):
That's w Yeah it's cash somewhere, but definitely that.
Speaker 4 (54:33):
Even my quick point is even if every and only
black person bought this, you're not gonna make the money
that you can make until like little white kids in
Middle America also buy it. So it just you know, hey,
get your money. I'm rarely gonna be in Iowa or
some small but Alabama to see that shirt anywhere.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
It was like I went to the Negro League Museum
last year and I was in the gift shop. Yeah
it's in Kansas City, phenomenal museum, but I'm in the
gift show up and it's so much cool gear. But
I'm just like I can't, right, Like you can't. And
Atlanta had a team, right you can't with Yeah, with
a really cool hat and a really cool like solid
(55:16):
clean logo like it with ABC and and but no
I can't.
Speaker 2 (55:24):
No, you can't.
Speaker 4 (55:25):
I should have tried, though I've asked you can't.
Speaker 1 (55:32):
Well, so I've I've actually asked David and Damon about
this in the past, which was really funny, and Damon
had a great answer where he just goes, he goes,
get ready for old black people to quiz you and
young black people to roast you. Absolutely, he goes, If
you're okay with both of those things happening either to
your face and behind your back, he goes, they go
(55:53):
for it, Yeah, he goes.
Speaker 2 (55:55):
But it's a very cool it's.
Speaker 1 (55:59):
I mean, yeah, I think all that, Like, I think
I had.
Speaker 3 (56:02):
A couple of heads.
Speaker 2 (56:02):
Okay, one last thing I need to get to this. Yeah,
is it too soon for the pumpkin spice latte? Because
this is a trending topic right now. It is, and
it's our last too soon topic of the day. When
is it okay to engage in fall? This is the
basic white girl version of it. It is delicious. Just
(56:23):
for the record, I'm a massive Pat Pumpkin spice fan. Yeah,
I look forward to engaging, but primarily just from the
like emotional connection to we made it to fall. I'm
done with summer. There's a cool breeze in the air,
hopefully in Boston or somewhere in the Northeast. When I
drink the first one. The color the leaves are changing colors. Yes, Now,
(56:47):
I have a very hard stance that September is much
too early for this. So my question to you guys
is when is it okay to be like fall is
here and for our basic white girl friends to pull
out their wide brimmed hats and their boots and their
(57:08):
fluffy vests. Yeah, that's still the basic white girl fashion.
Speaker 1 (57:13):
It's always going to be that every girl is gonna
show up dressing like a bougie han solo. I i
gotta have double digit September and I've got to have
I've got to have important college football games.
Speaker 2 (57:31):
Please. We're not there yet on any of those least
on my wife's algorithm, we're not. We're not, which Alison
absolutely falls into this category.
Speaker 3 (57:42):
Oh those are though.
Speaker 2 (57:43):
I could rock those crocs.
Speaker 3 (57:50):
Getting the fall off.
Speaker 4 (57:53):
I'm gonna I'm gonna take this moment to defend uh
basic white girls. I wouldn't only because I found myself
doing the most basic white girl thing last weekend. Like
we're like, it was comical, right, So if anybody knows me,
I wear these like stuff like this and it's not
(58:14):
but it's not like I'll get my girls and be like,
oh you in and I just wear them because I'd
like to wear stuff.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
It's like I do your best friend though, right, Well.
Speaker 3 (58:22):
That was the wristing.
Speaker 1 (58:23):
This stuff is like no for just our listeners described.
Speaker 2 (58:26):
Oh yeah, it's like these like a copper crystals if
you watch.
Speaker 4 (58:31):
So I'm in Alabama doing a don't Tel show and
I put my bag over it and I realized, oh snap,
one of my pendants broke or fell off.
Speaker 3 (58:39):
So this my my chain was just pendentless.
Speaker 4 (58:42):
Right, And I was with Ian Aburg Atlanta comic again
and he goes, oh what happened?
Speaker 3 (58:46):
And I was like, dag, I lost I didn't realize
I lost it.
Speaker 4 (58:49):
Why did I have another crystal in my bag that
I just put on there?
Speaker 3 (58:53):
And he looked at me like did you just do this?
Speaker 1 (58:56):
Man up and crystal?
Speaker 4 (58:58):
And I was like this my be the whitest girl
thing I've ever done. And and here's the thing. It
wasn't like this is a mean like I was like, oh,
I have to have to perform. I is the black guy.
I mean, but you got to complete the look. Yeah,
complete the look. But so I'll take that moment to
defend Crystal Warren.
Speaker 3 (59:17):
White girls.
Speaker 1 (59:18):
Yeah, here, I'll defend I'll defend Basic white girls. For
a second. I haven't worn them in public, but I have.
I have put on a pair of ug boots before,
and no, no, no, no, I've never owned them.
Speaker 3 (59:35):
Who did you put on other people's shoes?
Speaker 1 (59:37):
I was. I was in a shoe store and it
was empty, and I found a pair of ugs and
I put them on. And it was one of those
things where I was like, someday, someday, I'm gonna be
confident enough in myself to wear these.
Speaker 3 (59:51):
What's what's stopping you.
Speaker 1 (59:53):
It's my own e it's my own selfishness and my
own ego. So there's going to be a day that
I am confident enough in myself and who I am
to let my feet be that comfortable. Ladies, I don't
think y'all have figured it out with the ug boots.
I know I put I put ug boots on my feet.
Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
They were just the just the brown ones. Yeah, just
the Basic.
Speaker 5 (01:00:23):
I that's not a good shoe. Look at this one.
Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
No, no, no, no. I slid my feet into those and
it was it was like hearing my dad say he
was proud of me in a shoe form. It hugged
and supported and comforted all at the same time, stopping
you the look.
Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
No, okay, okay, I can't take anymore. I can't tell
any more. This is the line that this that is
the line for you with a shirt that you got
from free from a Hawk game fifteen years ago, brands
and shoes that no one can see. With an undershirt
that you need to you need to retire like six
(01:01:09):
months ago because the collar twists and it's like been
washed one too many times. But these shoes are shoes.
They're very comfort all the ones that you would enjoy,
the ones that give you emotional support in a way
that you're like, I feel good about. Like, this is
the line that you're gonna draw from a fashion standpoint.
Speaker 1 (01:01:28):
I mean also that price is tough for just.
Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
You have spent that dollar, those dollars on Jordan's that
have given you none of the feelings.
Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
Not a shoe for inside.
Speaker 4 (01:01:37):
He never he never spent on georgan. I be trying
to get him to spend that much on the pair
Jordan was he won't do it. Well, I got you
back there, he won't do it.
Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
I've never spent. I've never spent more than one hundred
and ten dollars from get the shoes.
Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
You can't. You have no You think you have an
ego that's keeping you from it, but just from the
outside looking in, you have nothing to understand.
Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
I'm not seeing these.
Speaker 1 (01:01:58):
I put him on that it I put them.
Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
Don't you don't have the like I care too much
about what people think about me In the way it was.
Speaker 4 (01:02:07):
It was how I thought about me. There was something
about respectful. You think about you too much.
Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
There was something about me that just went, I'm not
an ugs guy.
Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
Bro, you're not a tray young guy.
Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
I don't know. It's just something about these feel.
Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
Like if you came in here and like legends, like
like the legends like sweatpants and a Legends hoodie with those,
I'd be like, yeah, you pulled it together.
Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
Look, I'm I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (01:02:37):
I want I want you to engage. I want you
to get some mugs. I might buy them for a year.
Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
I can't. Well, I'm not gonna wear them in public.
Even if I had, they'd be a house shoe.
Speaker 3 (01:02:46):
They're not a house shoes.
Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
They are a house shoe.
Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
They're a house shoe. That you're allowed to wear out
in public.
Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
Yeah, they're like a slipper that you get the mail in.
That's what they would be for me.
Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
You could, you could, you could put the wire us
with their models going after tims. That a good point,
that is very specific in a world where they try
to get everybody covered. Yeah, single picture that looks I
mean that honestly is like a fear of God. Vibe
with it. I actually really did.
Speaker 3 (01:03:12):
Why don't you what is what is stopping you from net?
Speaker 5 (01:03:15):
You could actually this? This would look really good on
your name. Like I'm just saying, like I think you
could pull this look off because this is like this
is lazy fashion, not saying fashion that's like lazily put together.
Speaker 2 (01:03:28):
It is.
Speaker 5 (01:03:29):
You are comfy, but you still look good and it
looks like you took time to think.
Speaker 3 (01:03:34):
Yeah you get them.
Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
Yeah, I'm all four of the sweatpants. But we just
need to look at this guy.
Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Yeah, yeah, he looks so comforting.
Speaker 4 (01:03:43):
You could do what I just bro I think I'm
with Dan, Like You're like, I don't have it's too lesual.
Speaker 3 (01:03:50):
I don't have the confidence.
Speaker 5 (01:03:52):
This in this summer fit. Look at that get so fly,
look at this. You get that throwing some bro?
Speaker 3 (01:04:01):
Yeah, what's stopping you?
Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
What's stopping when you get home tonight? I want you
to peruse this the ug website with Libby and just
be like, all right, I'm thinking about over.
Speaker 3 (01:04:11):
How many Libby Bucks does it take?
Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
If you guys.
Speaker 1 (01:04:16):
Miss the conversion rate of Libby Bucks to ug.
Speaker 2 (01:04:18):
Bus, I'm talking to this one. If you missed last
week's Libby Bucks conversation, Livy.
Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
Bucks was fun. I've gotten Look, I've got hit at home.
Speaker 5 (01:04:29):
He's got green, he's got green ugs on matching that
green right there. Now that's no.
Speaker 4 (01:04:35):
I'm gonna be real with y'all. I got it in you.
You will never be that cool.
Speaker 3 (01:04:40):
Yeah yeah, no, listen, no, but you should try.
Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
You could.
Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
I'm looking at it.
Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
That that cool and I saw the way he was posing.
Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
No, I got a moment.
Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
We're gonna pull this one.
Speaker 3 (01:04:54):
Here's the way I did look like that you pull.
Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
Off, Dave. Here's the real question. We can we can
move on from now?
Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
You want to you? I want you to just get
the ugs. I think you could do some. But I
saw that guy who was looking too cool. I was like, yeah,
I can't do that.
Speaker 2 (01:05:08):
Here's the real question. Is that man that we just highlighted,
that's basically in every single one. They apparently only could
afford three models despite charging so much money, so much
money for their clothes. Uh. Is he wearing that outfit
in the streets?
Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
Absolutely? Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
Yeah, I don't look, but I'm about to buy a
bunch of black.
Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
Man and jeans. He's not in the house, he's going somewhere.
Speaker 2 (01:05:36):
I would rock that on vacation. Now you think you can.
Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
Put that off? That this little what is this color?
Speaker 1 (01:05:42):
I don't know if I could pull off that color
because that kind of little bit.
Speaker 5 (01:05:46):
Yeah, that's that's a black only. Yeah, I don't I
think you can pull this color off.
Speaker 1 (01:05:54):
I could. I'd have to be careful because that's what
color my skin turns if I stay in the sun
too long. M hm, So I gotta be care That's
got to be like an early summer.
Speaker 3 (01:06:03):
I don't want that for you.
Speaker 5 (01:06:04):
No, I do like that role I've done to plug
to plug your album that's coming up, Yeah, ugs, No,
send me stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
What if Dan.
Speaker 5 (01:06:13):
Sponsored it and he addressed you, because we're gonna talk
and then this isn't like we're trying to make you
look bad. Dan wants you to succeed more than you
want you to succeed, because Dan believes in yourself.
Speaker 3 (01:06:26):
So full disclosure can.
Speaker 5 (01:06:29):
We are because that David, we're like texting during.
Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
Well because I I kind of have an unofficial stylist
my sister.
Speaker 3 (01:06:36):
My sister has.
Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
Also taken.
Speaker 5 (01:06:40):
Just I just want to make sure Allison, uh, your
wife said late September for that, and that our child
sixteen said Brady.
Speaker 1 (01:06:47):
Wore rugs right, yeah, which is probably that's a part
of it.
Speaker 3 (01:06:51):
That's your biggest version.
Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
We need to ask my wife if I can spend
some money on as.

you're gonna work for the special because Nate. So, Nate
sent me and my sister look, and then he he
sent this.
Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
Basic.
Speaker 1 (01:08:32):
Well, the reason that I sent that is because they're
they're sending me stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:08:36):
That's because you get it, doesn't mean you should do anything.
Speaker 1 (01:08:39):
With it, right, I haven't.
Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
How did you wait? How? Okay? I have thirty seconds?
Speaker 1 (01:08:43):
I cold DMed a bunch of companies that I like,
told them what was happening and asked them to ask
them if they would be willing to send me stuff
to wear the special One company responded, and so I
don't is.
Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
The company homage? Omage is great.
Speaker 1 (01:08:57):
I love homage that they have way better stuff than
that they do. I don't know what they're sending me. Okay,
they're just sending me stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:09:03):
But basically, my sister saw this and goes h She said,
quote very Christian school look, checks out, checks out.
Speaker 1 (01:09:12):
But that's gonna happen with my face.
Speaker 3 (01:09:14):
Nah, you don't have to.
Speaker 1 (01:09:15):
Most of what I wear, it's I'm either gonna look
like a cool youth pastor or an uncool youth pastor.
That just happens with my jolly.
Speaker 3 (01:09:22):
This one looks like uncool.
Speaker 1 (01:09:23):

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Look, I'm getting that cut Friday.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I think like some before twelve thirteen thousand people last
week looked just like this.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yeah, are you what you're gonna cut this Friday?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Not again for the before the specials.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
No, that's a white way to do it.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I'm getting it because I need to get it cut
a couple of weeks before so it has a chance
to kind of grow out.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Okay, all right, I didn't know that's how that works.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
It's too long.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Generally a white way I get.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I get.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
I get it cut four days before things.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Four days.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Yeah, because that's us.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Tell us when do you get your hair cut? Yeah?
Best two things.
Speaker 5 (01:47):
First off, John glasgow As always joined us justification and
he poops two times a day. And then also it
should be the David Perdue experience. Oh sorry, no, a
David Ford experience. I like because A because the means
that's David a David Purdue experience.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Like it. Yeah, the voice you're listening to is Joel
behind the glass.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Yeah uh, I mean Damon's out gallivanting around Europe.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Different.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
He was around bagpipes in Spain. But Dan Duncan's with us.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, I'm from that place, Spain. No, Scotland, Scotland, the
bagpipes comes back with an accent.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
He's coming back with the same Jamaican accent that he
does for every country. Do you have a good Scottish accent?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
See my my grandfather obviously like did and I don't
try it because no, I'm Southern, Like I have a
Southern And my grandfather was like came to like Sheboygan,
Wisconsin and then like Kansas City, Missouri was where he
lived most of his life. And so he has no
like we were. We are just so far apart.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
But you can't do it. You can you can do
a Scottish accent.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
No, I'm not gonna try. Yeah, I have too much respect.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I want to say, I don't put him on it.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
But his I was like, I'm doing my grandpa's accent
all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
What like the yeah accent.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Well that's that's because he sounds as long as you
sound dumb, you're probably hitting the nail on the head. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
All right, Paul, I've.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Heard about I've heard about your family. Though he probably
deserved it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah, up to the big moonshine still in the sky.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
All right, should we talk sports.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Let's talk sports.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
People are here for what people are here for and politics?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
All right, first topic of man, Anthony Edwards. He's just
hanging out in our topics all the time. Uh. He
said that it was tougher back when Michael Jordan. He
said it was tougher back when it is now. But
(04:04):
I don't think anybody had skills other than Michael Jordan.
So basically the league was more raw, more unskilled. Michael
Jordan had all the skills and the Edwards has been
all over the place past couple weeks. Also, one thing
that I love that he said this week was that
he and Booker were coming for the gold in twenty
twenty eight. I love that because he left Jason Tatum out.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Well in the shot. It was like him and book
But he said so it was like in a moment.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
It was in a moment I just can I just
give some inside baseball to everyone listening right now. We
we ran pre show before we were here, and we
went through like five or six topics that we we
had bangers on. Nate just called through a topic that
we actually didn't run through. Now we were gonna get
(04:57):
to it as top of the list. I know, but
did you? But we edited the list deeply. I had
those in like the middle to hang on to the
middle because we're going on. Okay, we didn't just do
the with the with the Trump.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
With the n Bridge sound no, no, no, no, let's say this.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
You got okay, we're done with the Inside Baseball. Okay,
here's the deal with uh Ant and book. They didn't
think in clips they got cut up. I'm sure Jason
tam is gonna be on that team, and if he's not,
they're gonna lose.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Yeah, I would, that's a good call.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Was Jordan the only skilled player?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
You know?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Like I hate that.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Argument because like the Globe Trotters were invented way before
all of this, Yeah they were, and they're voice killed,
you know, like was it as many of them?
Speaker 3 (05:43):
You know? Obviously? Not?
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Do people practice more? Are there more skilled players now?
For sure. That doesn't mean Jordan was the only one skilled.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Now he was.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
He the most athletic, clearly, clearly. But you know what
stops athletics in them, the bad boys pistons. They beat
him up for a while when you're in the air.
Don't nobody care about less when you get that elbow
to the chess. So you know, you can and can say, oh,
we saw skilled, and I do think he's highly skilled
and alway played the highest skill. Very few of them
took an elbow to the chess or to the face.
(06:11):
And that'll change how athletic or skilled you think you are.
You're gonna be a lot different. So like you can't
watch in Isaiah Thomas with his ball handle skills and
be like, oh, nobody was skilled back there.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
It's just not the case, you know. Yeah, it's just
more specialized skills.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Now, Yeah, I mean showtime obviously. Yeah, there's a handful.
I get what he's saying in the sense of like
it was a bit more overpowering.
Speaker 6 (06:37):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Like the the some of the guys
that played in the NBA than are are dinosaurs now sure,
like you cannot you could not win with the teams
that won.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
They also don't shoot hook shots anymore, and Keen dominated
the league yeah with hook shots, So like, what are
we talking about? I also thought there wasn't a three
point line for like also Jordan's early days, especially in college, Like,
what are we talking about?
Speaker 4 (07:05):
So I can't look at a Pete Merrivig and say
that wasn't skilled. That's still one of the more skilled
ball hands we've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
I don't think you should bring a hook shot back.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
All right, let's go dad.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
It's it's unblockable.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Yeah, it's also goofy, and it's actually not it's kind
of not predictable.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
What do you mean it's not predictable. The second greatest
scorer of all time. It's his signature shot.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yeah, he's seven to one.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yeah, everybody, there's plenty of seven foot plus guys.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Someone would touch. Like he had very rare skill set
of things I want to throw.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I'm just saying, if Giannis learned a skyhook, Yeah, have
you seen free throw?
Speaker 3 (07:40):
It takes him a bit, but it doesn't look but
you can learn.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
He doesn't have touch. There's something I want to throw. Something.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
This is like I thought about this like a basketball
kind of comparison thing to my old generation new generation,
right Lebron Now, this is kind of a crazy I
think Lebron Now, I had to thought, is Lebron now
still more athletic than like a young Magic Johnson? Yes, yes,
that's crazy to think about it. It really is, like you
know what I'm saying, like a young Magic, similar size,
similar boot. Yeah, and you watch old Lebron and young Magic,
(08:12):
You're like, I think they're a twenty year old Magic
in a almost.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Well so, so I watched the video. Excuse me, I
watched the video the other day of Jordan's when he
was with the Wizards. Yeah, and I mean he scored
I think he's he scored fifty one at thirty eight.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Yeah. Wait wait can I make it come a pause?
You the other day, we're sitting presumably at your house. Yeah,
and you're like, what I'm gonna do with my time
right now is pull up I'm gonna google Jordan Wizards highlights. No,
it was like that to do for an hour.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It was like a video essay or something. Okay, so
makes it worse. I throw I throw it on while
I'm doing other stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Yeah, okay, you did not help. It's a video essay.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
It was like a video essay Jordan's Wizards high school kid. Yeah,
it was. It was great. But I so they're talking
like he's thirty eight when he's with the Wizards, which
is Lebron's what thirty nine forty now who knows he's
thirty eight? Plush and watching Jordan, who still could play obviously,
(09:17):
I mean putting up fifty points, okay, putting up multiple
thirty five plus game. The way that he was doing it, though,
was not the way Lebron is doing He wasn't overpowering anybody.
He wasn't out right. But I'm saying, like watching those
two and going like the way Lebron is doing it
now is insane.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Okay, but what are we talking about? Stop it? Stop it,
stop it. Go ahead, what you got, you're But the
entire the nutrition is different, the style of game is different.
Like if you look at Lebron James coming into the
NBA from high school, because I think he was the
last class to actually it was a couple after, but yeah,
it was one of the last last classes to go
(09:59):
straight in NBA. Point me in you look at Lebron then,
and you look at Magic back in his early days.
Their body types are similar versus they diverge through their years.
In the NBA. Magic obviously doesn't bulk up, doesn't have
the nutrition, isn't training like lebron Is doesn't have the
(10:19):
trainers with him, versus lebron Is obviously, you know, spending
millions of dollars on his body every year. So, like,
I think this comparison of like, look at the NBA,
look at their athleticism, look at their skill set versus
what what was? It's a moving target, sure, because if
you if you transported that world of people into this
(10:44):
day and age with all of the context, I think
that they do very similar things, and the NBA evolves
very similarly, and they themselves evolve into the style of game.
I don't think there's different. It's not like we've gotten
strong as a human race.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Well I'm saying, though evolved.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
You think, like we just know how to train our
bodies better.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Lebron didn't have hasn't had to adjust too, like he
hasn't had to adjust game.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
They're dance going back to the steroids.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
I'm saying. I'm just saying generally, there are versions of
you can take stuff to exactly like everyone is taking creatine.
No one took creatine.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Like it was crazy that Michael Jordan lift weights, you
know what.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I yeah, Like we're like, what he's lifting weights, He's like,
keep beating me up, which like it's just it's responding to.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Like, you know, trying to get a competitive age. Yeah,
I guess, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
I'm looking at Lebron at thirty nine do what he's doing,
and then you look at a young Magic Johnson and
you go, it's just again, this is one of those
A few times I'm like, I'm gonna publicly be an
awf Lebron.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, because like it makes no sense.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It makes no sense.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Here's the last thing I want to say about Ant's comments. Yes,
after watching the fever rules during the Olympics, okay, I
can don't know that. I can. I didn't watch the
NBA a lot before the playoffs. I'm going to miss
the Foeba rules and it's going to make the NBA
even more boring to me, because I mit what what
(12:13):
it is saying is like it was more physical, more
physical game. And I agree with him and to that degree,
we just saw a in my opinion, a better version
of basketball. And I want the NBA to to go
back to more Foeba esque style rules that like, allow
the game to be more physical. You have more physical
(12:35):
specimens in a less physical game today, and that makes
no sense to me. Let them, let them use their
physicality in a way that shows off their skill set.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
The for the NBA to do that. What they need
to do, though, is that that I don't know if
that starts with Adam Silver or if that where wherever
it goes. But it's the officials fault because the officials
are the ones and lebron But to me, well, to me,
what makes the NBA boring and what can make games
(13:07):
unwatchable is when there is a foul and it is
ten minutes of replaying the foul for a flagrant one,
where you go, that wasn't that big of a deal
where both guys are fine. It was a physical foul
where two athletic, fast people collided, right.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
I'm protecting them assets.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
I get that, But you're built into to These players
aren't built like they were back in the day in
the sense of like the pictures of dudes, I don't
know what that dude's name is playing at the garden.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
He got a whole neck brace on.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
But I'm saying, when you're when you're watching it, when
you're watching a game, and both guys are fine and
standing there.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Oh you forgot about the mouths of the palace, and
referees they're not they're not even sniffing at no more.
There's many too many billions on the line. They're like, hey,
y'all need a moment, calmed down, nobody haven fight.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
But they don't. But there's so many there's so many
times that referees insert themselves into games and they give
out double technicals because they're either too lazy to actually
write it. They're either double text so it's too lazy
to hold on, let me, let me just they're either
too lazy to actually analyze what went wrong, or they
(14:26):
just give out a flagrant one because they don't want
to let hard fouls go and games actually get entertained
in physical or they give flagrant two's based on reputation.
The game is not officiated well anymore, and that's what
makes the game boring, and that's what slows it down
(14:46):
in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
So I did a show the other day and I
end up talking to a ref who refs like SEC
basketball and feeble stuff overseas, and and.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
What they said was, was it a husband of a comic?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
No, no, no, no, no, it wasn't that at all.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
It was random, right, and they were listening to I
had some bit about basketball anyway, I was taught them afterwards.
And what they said was, I thought so interested. Like
one thing they learned is from like an some old school,
you know. Refuge taught them was like, your job at
the end of the day is for all of this
to come to an amicable end. That's your job. And
this is a professional refeence. And I go, that's the
(15:22):
realist thing I've ever heard nobody like. So they'll be
like I think they do. Like SEC women too, like
don Staley's be giving it to you know, yeah, because
she knows what she's doing. She's trying to come like
I'm gonna fight for what I gotta fight for it,
and you're gonna give me this call, and you know, like,
I gotta give you this call. And that's always how
it's been. I don't know why we pretend like it's
not how it's been. So like, so you give a
(15:43):
double tech or whatever you're like, hey, shut up and
go play. It's the equivalent of your parents saying, y'all
give each other a hug, you know, after something wrong,
and that's just that, and that keeps the game moving.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
But it always but but a lot of times it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
What do you want? You want on the fist fight?
You want hockey? What do you want? No?
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Want the referees to do their job.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
You can't do that job.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I can't do that job. No, but I'm not signing
up to do that job. These refs are saying I
can do this job.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
No.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
They're they're saying, let's keep this let's keep this amicable,
let's keep it balance.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
They're not saying that, they're saying, I don't want to
do this job. Double double text. Somebody shoot free throw
so that I don't have to actually do real work
where I have to answer for the calls that I
am making.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Can I be? You guys have very different opinions about this.
That's great is their room in both of y'all's minds
that the NBA could stand to keep the game up
and not slow it down with so many tiki tag fouls,
so many hand checks, arm checks, like can that can
that come back into the game in some form or
(16:48):
fashion so that every time someone's on someone's back, they
don't just call a foul.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I hope.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
So because I'm somebody, I've seen somebody online call like
ethical hoops, like ethical hoops, Like there's so many unethical hoopers.
The fact that like James hard On have you know,
he's had whole games built his carier is built at
the free throw line and it's very different. Yeah, Like
I wouldn't show him kid to be like James Harden.
So you know, I think that there definitely needs to
be a shift. But if you're talking about going back
(17:16):
to the thing, I think a little bit of feb.
I think the main thing that makes the fever rules
and those fever games dope is the fans.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Like fans make everything better. You know.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
I don't think it's on the list, but like major
Baseball was like the do you see the like when
there was a Tigers and Yankees played and it was
at the little it was a Little League World Series
class or whatever, and it was just kids in the
audience in the stands. Way more exciting because those kids
want to be there, right like anybody, anytime you have
a stand full of people that people who want to
be there. It's not coep. The games elevated, you know
(17:47):
what I mean? Like excitement, the intensity is elevated. So
I think a lot of it has to do with
like it's probably just a bunch of football French. There's
an French something drunk and it was having a good
time at the drinking red wine.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
That's that Olympic final bro insane.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Yeah, I don't know if this is a real thing.
And Dan, you can tell me. Has the n b
A entertained itself out of an entertaining product?
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I think that there is there is an adjustment coming
in the in the in the sports world where personalities
you can no longer count on the best players and
the interest in them to carry the world anymore. You
see it in golf now. The the most prominent, h
(18:39):
powerful golfers in the world are on YouTube now. Bryson
de Schambeau is an exception. He's a professional and a
YouTube golfer, but professional like the people that move the needle.
For all of the the brands that are spending money
(18:59):
to get more golf apparel, clubs, gear into the hands
of people, they're looking more at these YouTube golfers to
help move that needle than they are looking at the professionals,
and ultimately that's where the money comes from, is the shoes,
the brands. Now, yes, you have these in person experiences,
(19:20):
but again, I think the NBA is ultimately going to
need people who are all the time creating content and
fighting for the best possible entertainment entertaining product, which I
think ultimately boils down to fast games. That's why people
are gravitating towards American soccer football because it is forty
(19:42):
five minute halves. Yes, there are fouls, their restarts are quick,
there are not a ton of commercials, and people are
going to go more and more into that world of
like I don't have enough time to watch a four
hour sporting event that's slow, which.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Is wow, because Creek is coming to the Olympics.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah. My other My other thing is get referees that
don't speak English.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
That might actually that might.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
So then what do you like? Who are you gonna
complain to? You can complain all you want that ref
does not understand you.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
This isn't this isn't look somebody, this is like an
old old school like former Yugoslavian.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
You talked about how FOBA was officiated. It was good
the guys. They could complain all they want. Steve kirk
can complain all he wants. What's he gonna do to
complain to a Turkish ref who speaks Farsie? What Steve
Kurr is not learning Farsi in six weeks before the Olympics.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I would say that ref probably has some level of English.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, I would say if you're if you're a FEBA
ref and you get hired by the NBA, but don't learn.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
You've done enough. We've done enough basketball. We don't have
to really talk basketball for two more months.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
All right. Dan came in with his head on fire
because he's getting political texts real quick.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
Brian, thanks, said, good morning, gents. I missed last week's
but big up to David and Dan doing an organic
author record episode mid fourth and ten makes a few
weeks ago just needed showing aid and bless up. Glasgow
says NBA wants high scores, that's why the game benefits
offensive and Brian Biggs says this is low key like
(21:21):
an author record conversation as well. I like the comedy
and the culture moments.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
I dig it, another.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
One, another one. Yeah, hey, we're still here. There are
those that are not, but we still here, all right,
Nates up?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, Dan, I mean we're all sick of it, but
Dan particularly just furious with the texts, the the the calls.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Here's okay, So we're gonna talk about the next three
topics all have one thing in common too soon.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
The first one is this push to get out and vote.
I get it. There was a time in this country
where it was very difficult to vote, and I get
that there are voting registrations and important things to make
sure that everyone has their shot. But literally, the last
two weeks, I've had both sides of the aisle show
(22:12):
by my house asking for money. Oh, like, physically shows
you out, Yeah, physically show up at my house.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Yeah, at canvas show.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I get text messages from Hey, this is Kamala Harris,
this is Donald Trump, this is Governor Brian Kemp, and like,
I'm like, no, it's not so your marketing plan is
stupid because we all know that it's not you. We
know that you bought a bunch of phone numbers. Some
junior level intern wrote some copy of like how can
(22:43):
we get people to click on a link that we're
embedding in this text message? Right, And I'm like, I'm
I'm pulling Nate's Tom Brady. I don't care. It is
too soon. We can have this conversation October fourth to
November fourth. We can have thirty days to get people,
make sure they're registered, make sure they know where their
voting precincts are. All for these things. Both of these
(23:06):
candidates can take a flying leap off of a cliff.
For my as far as I'm concerned and.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Talk about wants a good.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I'm done. I'm done. I'm like muting. We're muting this
conversation where we don't need these debates. Everyone already generally
knows who they're voting for or is just generally not
voting for either of these candidates. Like there's nothing more
that we need to know. It is so polarized these days.
There's no one in the middle being like I'm curious.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Oh your curiosity is gone?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Oh yeah, I love how you.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
Treat this like Christmas season. It's like, is it time
for the treat to be up? And as a time
for the is it time.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
To get people now?
Speaker 2 (23:48):
In local politics, I have a very different take on this,
just for the record, because like I think, like I
actually agree with what you said, and that makes me
feel weird. But in general, I do think from an
national politics standpoint that has very little to do with
most people's everyday lives. Yeah, the obsession, Yeah, three sixty
(24:08):
five too much, it's too much.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
One thing I do. I think I learned this. I
think I saw a tuning. Dude is Aaron Tuning. Shout
out to Aaron Chuney. When he gets those messages that
people who don't like, he just responds back. I'm fourteen
years old, bro, I just respond back all the time.
I'm fourteen years old.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
It's a good idea, I go.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
I've been doing that for you. I don't know how
many years ago I saw that, but I do that
every time.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
So shout out to you. Erin because so many people
think I'm a fourteen year old boy.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
The only time that I respond, The only time I
respond is when they send me a text that's meant
for my dad. For some reason, I don't know if
it's because at some point this number was on like
my dad's yeah plan. So every once in a while
I'll get a text, it's like, Michael Trump needs your help,
and I just send back, this is Michael Owens and
(24:53):
I Michael Owens want Trump to rot in jail and
just something like that, and just it's just fun for me. Yeah,
I've I've tried to sell my dad's house so many times, jeez,
because they'll be like, hey, Michael, are you interested in
selling this property and fiery Branch, I'm like, yes, here's
here's the number.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Positive right now.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yeah, I'm like, here's here's the number I'm willing to
sell it for. And then I'll just send a screenshot
to my dad and be like, I'm taking twenty percent
of this if it works. So I see, here's what
I say. Shoot your shot.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Wait, so are you guys like here for the circus
that's now in town and you're like, let's let's have
fun with this for the next three months.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
The only thing I'm I am like, let's have fun
with is I Look. I saw some highlights of the
d n C on TikTok and.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
How everyone engaged with it. Yeah, don't watch the actual thing.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Oh what am I gonna watch?
Speaker 5 (25:50):
They invited a bunch of influencer content creators this year two.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Invited.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
You had a dude who's like I don't know where.
I forgot where about him, but he hit me up.
He was like, yo, I got you in.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Did you want to go?
Speaker 5 (26:04):
No?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Like when I was like, it's going to be day.
What I'm gonna do? Like it wasn't enough.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
It wasn't like an indie.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
It's in Chicago.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
It was in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
You should have just gone and just hung out at Chicago.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I really thought about it, and then I was like,
what I think they wanted me to like actually make stuff.
And I was like I just just hang out, Like
I wouldn't want to do stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I just like I get that the Democrats are trying
to have fun. And look after the rn C was
like we're fun. We have kid Rock and whole Cogan
and I was like that was fun in ninety six. Yeah,
what a good time and yeah, and then the Democrats
were like, whooping in somebody relevant, little John.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
We're not gonna do that. We're not gonna We're like
they're the same.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Not no, no, they're not the same.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Not Relevant has similar peaks the same time to this day.
Speaker 5 (26:51):
Screaming yeah doesn't get you pumped.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
No, it does I'm saying it worked on me. Yeah,
worked on me. It's just like it caught me off guard.
I'm just like scrolling TikTok. And then when they were
like Georgia, how do you vote or whatever? And then
little John does a performance, I was like, all right,
I guess you got me.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
I didn't move it.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
You did move it before?
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Stop behind your face? What's the what's Tim Allen's neighbor
and home? And f Wilson? You look like Wilson? Yeah?
I I too soon. Yeah it look there are certain
things that need to happen, and we can we have
a certain amount of time. I will be thinking about
what I'm cooking for Thanksgiving when this really matters.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Oh yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
That that is the same, like, oh do we like,
let me start pulling together this recipe? How am I
smoking this giant turkey? Making this thing delicious? Oh? And
now let me like go on a neutral website. That's
like pulling everyone's like what their platforms are, what they
really what ultimately their cabinets are gonna vote for? Push
(27:58):
through do? Yeah, and I'm going to look at that
and be like, which ones of these do I actually
believe in?
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Is there anything you feel personally that you prepare for
earlier than anybody else.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Oh, I thought you were about to ask, like what
am I? What are my voting? That's a different show,
that's off the record. Thank you, we're a sports podcast.
This is just too soon. What are the things that
I get ready for too early? I mean I've been
ready for I've been watching college football, like you know,
(28:36):
shows segments, early predictions, and that that doesn't bother me
at all. And that's too soon. We're gonna talk about
that in a second. But that's too soon. So I
would say college football is probably the one thing that
I actually don't look forward to. I enjoy more before
we get there, because it's so stress inducing once I'm
(28:59):
in it.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
You but you like the rev up to college football?
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Yeah, because I'm not gonna I can't lose yet. That's real.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
That is fair, that's real.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
And George is gonna lose this year. And we haven't
lost anyone but in Alabama in like three or four years.
For twenty twenty was last time we lost to anyone
not named Alabama. Do you think it's gonna be I think, dude,
this schedule is just just hey.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
I just want to. I just want everybody to know, Dan,
you do this. I respect it too.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Dan like prepares his heart at Texas, like I don't miss.
Yeah it's at Alabama. If you get out of that
with just two losses and make the playoff, I'll be ecstatic.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
As long as it's not Texas.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
I just I was just gonna be good.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
I respect.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I respect the preparation that I was trying to think of,
like a sports thing that I or season that out like,
oh I like the offseason.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Yeah, I like.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
I mean I think, you know, like basketball, when like
free agency opens, I do appreciate free agency frenzy. Free
agency is a lot, but it's a big letdown because
it's like, oh, now I don't care about this for
like three months now.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Yeah, it's just.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Like, oh, you've got a guy that I can't see
for three months. So like I had to even remove
myself and I say, I don't where you're gonna sign.
She's got me waiting for three months. I'm about to
watch baseball.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Yeah you know, yeah, I mean, yeah, my mine's probably
the NFL. I So I started watching Hard Knocks this week.
I try to let a couple episodes of Hard Knocks
Get going because that Chicago okay, so, but also like
they introduced off season Hard Knocks, so it followed the
(30:32):
Giants this offseason, so like you saw their draft, you
saw all the Saquan drama, they followed their GM.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
That's too much. No, it was no football has football
has done always done a great job of telling the stories.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
It was so because the players so good.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, everything about it was phenomenal. I'm so excited about
the falcon.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Ud That's a great point. Like why doesn't like they
do like a moneyball style behind the scenes of I
mean there's too much. I'm sure there's too much inside
baseball handshakes, like like get made technology.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
No, not not. I watched last night. It was just
happened to be on.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
I think after the Braist game was watching and they'll
show clips of podcasts of Mookie Bets podcast. Yeah, I
think Mookie Best is a phenomenal baseball player, generational talent.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Right, he has the most boring podcast.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
It's so bad.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I was like, what you.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
How you're so exciting on the field.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
If I may step into the world of like you
do a terrible job of shelling yourself baseball such a
terrible job of thes like you're not for the like
it's like you need help almost.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
It's almost like Baseball despises their fans. Yeah, and like despises.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Okay, that's that's fine. What would you do differently?
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I started Mookie Best podcast.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
You know, like a lot of these basketball podcasts, there's
like a de facto host that with you get somebody
who has real charisma in there in the podcast to
help drive the kind.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Is it an MLB podcast?
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Yeah, but it's just it's it's Mooki and another player.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Yeah, which can be fine.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yeah, but that's not the MLB marketing themselves. What could
the MLB do to engage younger fans. I'm genuinely curious
as someone who you just.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
You find guys that actually have personality and you put
them everywhere.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Bring this weekend baseball. That's an easy this week baseball?
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Okay, like that's real.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Bring back this weekend baseball. Get rid of these ridiculous
blackout restrictions, like Iowa has zero professional teams. Five teams
are blacked out in Iowa.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
It I mean, I agree that this is that is key,
the fact that I can't watch the Braves. Yes, and
as a former season ticket holder, is a it's.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
I mean, obviously this is not my world, and there's
a lot of logistics to it, but to me, it's
like make baseball obtainable, like make it easy to access.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
I think they tried to take a Monday night football
approach to like an NFL approach, and they just don't
understand the dynamics or there's so many fewer NFL games
that you can do that can make it. You can
make it this thing that like I watch every Sunday
night football game, every Monday night football game, and it
is a little bit inconsequential to if I'm a fan
(33:21):
of those teams, that I'm gonna get as much football
as I can while it's here.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Yeah, I think football does a good job of selling
themself as an event. I think baseball tries itself as
an event. But really it's a story, right, A long,
a long story. So how do you get people in
gage sell the storylines? Yeah, none of the storylines are sold.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, it's a chapter book.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
It's a chapter book. But they're like, no, it's an event.
It's like not on a Tuesday at seven, it's not.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
It would be interesting if they did a Hard Knocks
like how they do the nd season Hard Knocks, where
like if you're like, I don't want to watch the games,
but I will watch this kind of like evolving storyline
that feels more like a movie. If people would tune
in more into that world.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
You gotta have personalities again, and Mookie Bits it was
so bad and I genuinely think he's a great player.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
And an exciting player.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Is the language barrier an issue for baseball now that
there's so many players that genuinely don't speak English should
be but even the ones that do.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
The only reason I would push back on that a
little bit is because the NBA has Jokic, Yannis speak.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
They all speak very they speak very good, and they
love their They like well joannest Owns Milwaukee like they
they they are on they love that this.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
Ye, but I'm saying you can.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
You can.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
You can showcase guys who don't speak English still. You
can still put them in commercials, you can still give
them signature shoes, you can still like Yeah, but the
fact that the only Baseball silhouette shoe wise that I
can think of is Griffy. I mean, you think I
was thinking about this the other day, I was like,
Derek Jeter, as much as I cannot stand him, one
(35:11):
of the I mean shortstop in New York, maybe the
most recognizable Yankee of all time, oh for sure, Literally
such a sex symbol that he was giving girls gift
baskets after one night stands.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
That's just throw.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
But I'm saying, but with the with the but I'm saying,
like with the Jordan that that was his reputation, like
off the field, so like he's a point, he's a
player off the field. He's a player on the field.
He's with the Jordan brands. Not a single signature.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
Shoe that you but like actually really.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
That you would wear today.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
They were like my school, they were like some, uh yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
I think like one, he'sn't playing baseball. I had no no,
but like as like a sneaker. I know, I'm talking
about like Jordan cleats that right.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
That's what I'm saying, Like why why why aren't baseball
players getting signature sneakers because.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
No one cares.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
No one's as cool as king Griffy run is not.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Ronald Cunya is great. And this is where I want
to get to in this baseball conversation that we didn't
plan on. That is good. We're in the middle of baseball. Yeah,
that Ronald Cunya is. All of his personality is the
way he plays baseball. He could be just as good
getting the exact same stats. And if you turn down
his volume, you wouldn't know who he is exactly. But
(36:42):
you turn up the volume and you're like, Okay, I
get a sense of it. I don't need you to
talk to me. You talk all you want on the field,
and like, I like it. Now, there are other players
who just fundamentally don't. And I think that again, athletes
want to be This is a general sports take. Athletes
(37:02):
want to be athletes. They don't want to be characters
and stories, and so they hide behind. I don't want
to do interviews. I don't want to do these things.
I want to show up. I want to do the thing,
and then I want to leave, which I understand their
perspective on that, but I think these leagues have to
come to them and say, we need to partner together
to make you celebrities not athletes, and make people fall
(37:25):
in love with you the way they fall in love
with musicians. And Ronald Acunya is somebody who you don't
have to He doesn't have to talk a lot because
he is so excellent and he is so loud, but
he is rare to be that good and to emote
that much as he plays. He's a little bit of
like a des Bryant, where you're like, I don't ever
need to hear you talk. You speak with the way
(37:45):
you play the game. But again, you need a much
wider spectrum than that to create fans, and baseball in
particular is not creating fans of people. And that's a problem.
And they to that degree, there's less and less people
like they're playing baseball. Think about your high school who,
(38:07):
like every girl in every high school goes and watches football.
Oh yeah, no. I when I was in high school,
I didn't attend one single baseball game.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
You play half the time, play on if you don't
have it on campus.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
So the best athletes in the school also played baseball,
but no one went and watched. And so it's how
do how does baseball become the cool sport that people
want to watch?
Speaker 1 (38:34):
I will say one thing that's going to help them
a lot that MLB had nothing to do with is
the backyard baseball is coming back.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (38:43):
That means it's gonna get kids playing baseball video games again.
Oh and learning.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
I was like, backyard Baseball is a video game.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Backyard Baseball the video? Did you not play it growing up? Okay, anyway,
let's all right, let's stay in the world of kind
of like the personality the marketing. Because Oklahoma State started
putting QR codes on the back. Yeah, yeah, Pablo Sanchez
one of the greatest fictional athletes of all time, if
not the greatest fictional athlete of all time.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
The fact that you knew his name just off the rip.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
Oh, he was on all of all of them we had.
So we had backyard baseball, backyard football, and he was
fantastic in both of them. All right, anyway, So yeah,
Oklahoma State's putting QR codes on the back. And the
QR code leads to I believe just the players like
nil profile. I don't think it like leads like a
I don't know exactly what it leads to.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
It probably leads to their collect just to.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Link tree or whatever whatever their version.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Of the twenty one dollars a month to join this club.
Speaker 4 (39:45):
Why are you that close to my helmet? That's my
thing is, then are you that close to my helmet?
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Is that I I a emotion replays.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
I guess I am pausing the game so I can
click on your helmet.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I'm I am pro n I L and I'm pro
these players having opportunities like this. But this feels very
much like a we tried, knowing that there's not gonna
be any results. But they but the school can say
we're trying.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, I don't. I just don't.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
I don't see.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Hey, get off this before they get us for the
ESPN gets us for Uh it's.
Speaker 5 (40:24):
Muted, it's muted.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Uh, Yeah, I don't. I don't.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
I don't just give just just give me the money,
like just or go to my website. There's too much access.
I don't need that on my helmet. I don't know
who that's for. I don't know who's got a phone
scanning helmets. I'm not pausing a game to see that.
I wonder how I.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
Can contribute to these young man's and I'm not doing that.
I don't know. I don't know who that's for. That's
that's a weird.
Speaker 4 (40:47):
That's gonna I think it's going to trying to sell
people on like the potential players that come there.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
But it's like, what is to what end? How does
this work?
Speaker 2 (40:54):
It is literally putting cash app names, venmo names on
the back of their jerseys like that this is this
is where we're going, and it's ass is as nine.
This makes no sense. You could run a spot in
(41:15):
the stadium for every single game for your hardcore fans
who are in the stadium like Tennessee does, and say
give to our collective, like give ten dollars, give five dollars,
here's what you get, here's the access you get, here's
the thing you're a part of. But this of like
each player, because the reality is is each player is
(41:36):
I mean unless unless they are giving this money directly
to each one of these players, which I'm pretty sure
you can't say on the game, then they're just wearing
a a.
Speaker 5 (41:50):
You scan it and then you can credit a team
member that you you So it's a direct to a player. No, no,
you can just not credit a team member. But it
has a part. So it's like, oh, I got this
from so and so. But the minimum, I mean, you
can put whatever you want, but it starts at one hundred,
goes up to five thousand for their suggestion.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
I mean interesting, where this is going is after a
key play, a player is going to run up to
the camera and in this case turn around and be like,
right here, pay me my money for that catch, touchdown.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
Catch. I'm actually not mad at it is.
Speaker 4 (42:26):
I think it could be better after you make a
catch part of your TV deals, like you got to
put my cash up so I make it catch and
make a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
Dude, I hate this so much.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
I think it looks bad too.
Speaker 3 (42:37):
No, it's tacky, It's definitely it.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
This is While individuals might benefit from this, this is
the downfall of BA for the culture that team. Like look,
whether or not we want to acknowledge it, like, individualism
versus team mentality is a thing in sports, and this
(43:03):
is going to ruin teams from the inside out. Like
this is cancerous for a coach to try to. Like,
you know, when a player doesn't get a ball in
a game and throws a block and for a running
back and the running back scores and the wide receiver
comes over and no one's paying him his money, but
he was the one that unlocked that run. How do you,
as a coach come to that player and say keep blocking.
Speaker 3 (43:26):
Just for funsies.
Speaker 4 (43:27):
Dan, I'm gonna do this just for fundie because I
think this will get spicy.
Speaker 3 (43:30):
Right. This is just right.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
This is the most capitalistic idea, and what you're describing
was the most I would say communist idea.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
Oh, I believe in communism as an idea.
Speaker 3 (43:45):
Wait, I know you shoudn't meet me before you leg
this isn't communism doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
It doesn't work. I agree with that. Tell its sports No.
I look, I'm all for nil.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
I'm all for like.
Speaker 2 (44:03):
The teams specifically. I actually don't love the like marketing deal, Like,
like you know, this quarterback gets a private jet deal
and he is trading access to a private jet so
he can flex on his like you know, team members
or show off to his girlfriend that he can fly
to you know X number of places. I think those
(44:25):
are stupid. I don't think that they're going to return.
I think those companies are going to go through the
phase of like, let's do this, and like ultimately they
don't generate ROI from those investments, and so that's gonna
go away, and so like I'm fine with it right now.
What I do think is like at and T partnering
with Georgia to be the you know on the headsets,
(44:45):
and they're stroking a check to the to the team.
The players on that team are should be part of
that deal and collective bargaining into that deal, which NIL
is creating the space for. So there's ways for the
team to pay dollars to the team and even wait
them in specific manners of playing time and snaps and
(45:07):
those types of things that I think is equally weighted
versus alignment versus a quarterback versus a wide receiver that
fundamentally fans are too stupid to understand how football is played.
So in the NFL, a left tackle is probably the
third highest paid person on the team. In college, that's
(45:28):
not going to happen because no one's gonna scan their
stupid QR code to be like, let me take care
of my left tackle. So I think my biggest take
is this is one desperate two might work and therefore
leading to the degradation of the game.
Speaker 3 (45:52):
Oh I mean.
Speaker 5 (45:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (45:55):
I also think that you know, this is kind of
a sign of how much he's an XFL thing, like
you might.
Speaker 3 (46:02):
As well have he hate me with cash up on
the back, right, But.
Speaker 4 (46:05):
I think it's just a sign of how how much
money they had been making off of these athletes, and
now they're like everybody's trying to get every dime that
they felt like they should have got, you know, in
previous years.
Speaker 3 (46:17):
But no, I just I find that interesting.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
I'm just I'm not a fan, and maybe this is
naive of me to think that it could stay. I
just don't like it bleeding into the actual game. If
if you want to have a car dealership commercial, if
you want to get that and drive around campus, if
you want to be on every commercial every break, go
(46:40):
go get that, man, Go do that if you want
to if you want to sign jerseys every weekend, if
you want to sell your bull ring on eBay, it's yours.
Speaker 2 (46:49):
I agree with that.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
But the second that the game itself is interrupted.
Speaker 3 (46:54):
How's it? And how's the game interrupted? Though?
Speaker 1 (46:56):
But I'm saying like yeah, and then if like if
a QR code is popping up during a.
Speaker 3 (47:01):
Game, but you're you're doing it like the players right now.
Speaker 1 (47:07):
But if the next step of this is for yeah,
or the next step is that every touchdown now is.
Speaker 2 (47:14):
Popular, where like this is trackable and at the end
of the game, there's like they list out like what
players made, that's this is a game, this is game,
this is a video game.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
Oh yeah, well, I think eventually they're just gonna they're
gonna have the player intros with the cash app instead
of like it's gonna be like instead of you saying
you're college and like the pros, it's gonna be cash App.
Nathan Owens Nathan Owens, twenty five. Finmo.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
It gets, it gets really weird, it goes, It gets
really really weird in the way that like this money
flows in and out, and I I understand, I believe in. Really,
what I believe in is a meritocracy, like pay people
based off of the merit they bring to something. But
at the end end of the day, this is a
(48:03):
semi professional world. In college back in college, uh.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
It's still the wild West.
Speaker 1 (48:09):
I just think this just feels like something that the
school knows won't work.
Speaker 3 (48:14):
But it looks good work.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
I sat in the room and they were like, let's
how we don't have our collective isn't able to to
move the needle. So what we can do is we
can let players get a sense of I can make
my own way by becoming a star on the field.
Speaker 4 (48:35):
I would do this then if I'm a player, Like
remember how like the Seattle had Seahawks had like the
Legion of Boom.
Speaker 3 (48:41):
I'm like, we're a collective now.
Speaker 4 (48:43):
Sure you know what I'm saying, Like, oh, as a
like the Safeties, we are, we are one q R
code and will's put the money and then we'll have
a celebrate together when we do something together wild receivers,
like let's be a like you know what I mean,
different almost like businesses inside of businesses inside of business.
Speaker 1 (48:59):
It just feel it so like Truman Show, Like if
you remember, like the last time I remember watching The
Truman Show, because like that that whole world was we're
watching this guy twenty four hours, which means they had
the sneak the commercials in so like in the middle
of a conversation, she's like, drink this, yeah, and she
like points it to the camera. That's what this is
starting to feel like who what it is? And I'm
(49:20):
just I'm sick of it, Like I'm sick of watching
a split screen of an AT and T commercial while
the basketball game is going on. I'm sick of watching.
I just like it's it's getting to a point where
we can't even watch the entire game without the commercials
(49:41):
play through. We can't Like it used to be the
commercials were annoying, but the commercials were the commercial breaks.
And now the commercials are happening during the game. They're
happening every time out, They're happening every time that there
is a break and play.
Speaker 2 (49:55):
It is getting bad.
Speaker 4 (49:56):
Here's what's interesting. I think we all forgot why TV
was invented. You thought I was invented for your enjoyment,
for tea, for like shows and stuff. Invented to sell
two past soap, Like that's why. That's why all this
stuff was invented. It is the other stuff. It's almost
like we think is comedians that people. It's like we're
in the comedy business. No, we're in the bar business,
(50:16):
and comedy happens to be apart alcohol business. Yeah, we're
trying to sell something, and the lore is football, comedy, whatever.
But the overalltry thing is like I need to sell
this two paste, this burger king is whatever it is.
That's why I was all invented. So just you know
they're playing a game.
Speaker 1 (50:34):
Yeah, well who I'm who I am mad at is
the companies like ESPN, Okay, get off your ship box quick,
that are making billions of dollars every year and are
still that's right, become a capitalist. They're making billions of
dollars every year and they're still like, well, let's squeeze
another two million out of AT and T by putting
a thirty second ad during the start of a basketball game.
(50:57):
That's where I'm like, you were making plenty of.
Speaker 2 (50:59):
Business being his hemorrhaging money, but keep going.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
Like that's that's That's what kills me, is that when
it's like, yeah, that's very frustrating, it does bother me.
Speaker 3 (51:08):
The games you can't.
Speaker 1 (51:10):
But that's that's what I'm saying. They're the only they're
the only way to get the game, and that's they're
the only way to get the games. And they know that.
They know they're the only place to get to Like
my sports, it's a monopoly.
Speaker 3 (51:26):
Sports teams like you should not go to the games
because if.
Speaker 2 (51:31):
There are other leagues, other other sports.
Speaker 1 (51:34):
There's no other leagues. There's no other professional football league
in America.
Speaker 5 (51:37):
Our child sixteen said, uh, talking about QR codes, it
feels like passing cost of consumers because the higher ups
don't want to decrease their share exactly. Glasgow says that
they should just put the zel or cash up on
the jerseys like Dan said. And he also said that
this car code and it all gives me fundraising. You
see kids doing on the side of the road vibes.
Speaker 2 (51:56):
Everybody's a water boyd I have one last time, I
have one college football thing, and then we need to
get to the last big too soon debate. I saw
the Alabama's quarterback last year had the let A I
think or whatever. I was at the gym, I'm running
(52:21):
on the treadmill and in front of me was this
a very white person wearing that shirt. And I I
literally was like, this is what. No, I don't know.
So I need to ask you if you saw that
person walk past you wearing an Alabama Crimson tide with
(52:42):
those with that phrasing on it. No, it just said
the It was the the lank Yes a shirt, a
white frat boy walk No, there was nothing below it,
just like lank that he was wearing that. Yeah, and uh,
(53:02):
how would you feel about that?
Speaker 4 (53:04):
I'm conflicted. I'm being honest with I'm conflicted. A part
of me is like, do you know what that is?
Speaker 2 (53:11):
That's what that was my thought.
Speaker 4 (53:12):
The second part is that young black quarterback just made
twenty five hours and I'm proud of him, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 2 (53:18):
Like I don't.
Speaker 4 (53:18):
I'm admittedly conflicted. I'm admittedly conflicted, but I might pull
what I got to the side.
Speaker 3 (53:25):
What do you think? What do you think that is?
Tell me what you think I had?
Speaker 2 (53:29):
I had.
Speaker 4 (53:29):
I remember one time it was like during the pandemic,
where like people were like, you know, you see people
with a lot of letters together, and they say, you.
Speaker 3 (53:36):
Know, if you can if you know what this means? Yeah,
And it was a comic.
Speaker 4 (53:39):
I'm not gonna say the name, but they like posted
it and one of the ends in this long thing
was that, and I was like, hey, I said, hey,
just let you know that. Don't say what you think
it says like you were close, you're not there. And
then they immediately pulled it down because I don't want
to do that.
Speaker 2 (53:56):
This makes me so uncomfortable. It's uncomfortable, like this is
this this is like akin to like a white person
wearing fubu, like you're not by, you're not us in
either of these senses.
Speaker 4 (54:08):
I don't disagree, but part of me goes, listen, this
is the thing about I think this is a thing. No,
I'm pretty sure they sold the company, right.
Speaker 3 (54:18):
Uh. My thing is this you can make.
Speaker 4 (54:22):
You can like make these things that might be for
cultural like that.
Speaker 2 (54:27):
That's w Yeah it's cash somewhere, but definitely that.
Speaker 4 (54:33):
Even my quick point is even if every and only
black person bought this, you're not gonna make the money
that you can make until like little white kids in
Middle America also buy it. So it just you know, hey,
get your money. I'm rarely gonna be in Iowa or
some small but Alabama to see that shirt anywhere.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
It was like I went to the Negro League Museum
last year and I was in the gift shop. Yeah
it's in Kansas City, phenomenal museum, but I'm in the
gift show up and it's so much cool gear. But
I'm just like I can't, right, Like you can't. And
Atlanta had a team, right you can't with Yeah, with
a really cool hat and a really cool like solid
(55:16):
clean logo like it with ABC and and but no
I can't.
Speaker 2 (55:24):
No, you can't.
Speaker 4 (55:25):
I should have tried, though I've asked you can't.
Speaker 1 (55:32):
Well, so I've I've actually asked David and Damon about
this in the past, which was really funny, and Damon
had a great answer where he just goes, he goes,
get ready for old black people to quiz you and
young black people to roast you. Absolutely, he goes, If
you're okay with both of those things happening either to
your face and behind your back, he goes, they go
(55:53):
for it, Yeah, he goes.
Speaker 2 (55:55):
But it's a very cool it's.
Speaker 1 (55:59):
I mean, yeah, I think all that, Like, I think
I had.
Speaker 3 (56:02):
A couple of heads.
Speaker 2 (56:02):
Okay, one last thing I need to get to this. Yeah,
is it too soon for the pumpkin spice latte? Because
this is a trending topic right now. It is, and
it's our last too soon topic of the day. When
is it okay to engage in fall? This is the
basic white girl version of it. It is delicious. Just
(56:23):
for the record, I'm a massive Pat Pumpkin spice fan. Yeah,
I look forward to engaging, but primarily just from the
like emotional connection to we made it to fall. I'm
done with summer. There's a cool breeze in the air,
hopefully in Boston or somewhere in the Northeast. When I
drink the first one. The color the leaves are changing colors. Yes, Now,
(56:47):
I have a very hard stance that September is much
too early for this. So my question to you guys
is when is it okay to be like fall is
here and for our basic white girl friends to pull
out their wide brimmed hats and their boots and their
(57:08):
fluffy vests. Yeah, that's still the basic white girl fashion.
Speaker 1 (57:13):
It's always going to be that every girl is gonna
show up dressing like a bougie han solo. I i
gotta have double digit September and I've got to have
I've got to have important college football games.
Speaker 2 (57:31):
Please. We're not there yet on any of those least
on my wife's algorithm, we're not. We're not, which Alison
absolutely falls into this category.
Speaker 3 (57:42):
Oh those are though.
Speaker 2 (57:43):
I could rock those crocs.
Speaker 3 (57:50):
Getting the fall off.
Speaker 4 (57:53):
I'm gonna I'm gonna take this moment to defend uh
basic white girls. I wouldn't only because I found myself
doing the most basic white girl thing last weekend. Like
we're like, it was comical, right, So if anybody knows me,
I wear these like stuff like this and it's not
(58:14):
but it's not like I'll get my girls and be like,
oh you in and I just wear them because I'd
like to wear stuff.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
It's like I do your best friend though, right, Well.
Speaker 3 (58:22):
That was the wristing.
Speaker 1 (58:23):
This stuff is like no for just our listeners described.
Speaker 2 (58:26):
Oh yeah, it's like these like a copper crystals if
you watch.
Speaker 4 (58:31):
So I'm in Alabama doing a don't Tel show and
I put my bag over it and I realized, oh snap,
one of my pendants broke or fell off.
Speaker 3 (58:39):
So this my my chain was just pendentless.
Speaker 4 (58:42):
Right, And I was with Ian Aburg Atlanta comic again
and he goes, oh what happened?
Speaker 3 (58:46):
And I was like, dag, I lost I didn't realize
I lost it.
Speaker 4 (58:49):
Why did I have another crystal in my bag that
I just put on there?
Speaker 3 (58:53):
And he looked at me like did you just do this?
Speaker 1 (58:56):
Man up and crystal?
Speaker 4 (58:58):
And I was like this my be the whitest girl
thing I've ever done. And and here's the thing. It
wasn't like this is a mean like I was like, oh,
I have to have to perform. I is the black guy.
I mean, but you got to complete the look. Yeah,
complete the look. But so I'll take that moment to
defend Crystal Warren.
Speaker 3 (59:17):
White girls.
Speaker 1 (59:18):
Yeah, here, I'll defend I'll defend Basic white girls. For
a second. I haven't worn them in public, but I have.
I have put on a pair of ug boots before,
and no, no, no, no, I've never owned them.
Speaker 3 (59:35):
Who did you put on other people's shoes?
Speaker 1 (59:37):
I was. I was in a shoe store and it
was empty, and I found a pair of ugs and
I put them on. And it was one of those
things where I was like, someday, someday, I'm gonna be
confident enough in myself to wear these.
Speaker 3 (59:51):
What's what's stopping you.
Speaker 1 (59:53):
It's my own e it's my own selfishness and my
own ego. So there's going to be a day that
I am confident enough in myself and who I am
to let my feet be that comfortable. Ladies, I don't
think y'all have figured it out with the ug boots.
I know I put I put ug boots on my feet.
Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
They were just the just the brown ones. Yeah, just
the Basic.
Speaker 5 (01:00:23):
I that's not a good shoe. Look at this one.
Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
No, no, no, no. I slid my feet into those and
it was it was like hearing my dad say he
was proud of me in a shoe form. It hugged
and supported and comforted all at the same time, stopping
you the look.
Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
No, okay, okay, I can't take anymore. I can't tell
any more. This is the line that this that is
the line for you with a shirt that you got
from free from a Hawk game fifteen years ago, brands
and shoes that no one can see. With an undershirt
that you need to you need to retire like six
(01:01:09):
months ago because the collar twists and it's like been
washed one too many times. But these shoes are shoes.
They're very comfort all the ones that you would enjoy,
the ones that give you emotional support in a way
that you're like, I feel good about. Like, this is
the line that you're gonna draw from a fashion standpoint.
Speaker 1 (01:01:28):
I mean also that price is tough for just.
Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
You have spent that dollar, those dollars on Jordan's that
have given you none of the feelings.
Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
Not a shoe for inside.
Speaker 4 (01:01:37):
He never he never spent on georgan. I be trying
to get him to spend that much on the pair
Jordan was he won't do it. Well, I got you
back there, he won't do it.
Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
I've never spent. I've never spent more than one hundred
and ten dollars from get the shoes.
Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
You can't. You have no You think you have an
ego that's keeping you from it, but just from the
outside looking in, you have nothing to understand.
Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
I'm not seeing these.
Speaker 1 (01:01:58):
I put him on that it I put them.
Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
Don't you don't have the like I care too much
about what people think about me In the way it was.
Speaker 4 (01:02:07):
It was how I thought about me. There was something
about respectful. You think about you too much.
Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
There was something about me that just went, I'm not
an ugs guy.
Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
Bro, you're not a tray young guy.
Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
I don't know. It's just something about these feel.
Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
Like if you came in here and like legends, like
like the legends like sweatpants and a Legends hoodie with those,
I'd be like, yeah, you pulled it together.
Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
Look, I'm I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (01:02:37):
I want I want you to engage. I want you
to get some mugs. I might buy them for a year.
Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
I can't. Well, I'm not gonna wear them in public.
Even if I had, they'd be a house shoe.
Speaker 3 (01:02:46):
They're not a house shoes.
Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
They are a house shoe.
Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
They're a house shoe. That you're allowed to wear out
in public.
Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
Yeah, they're like a slipper that you get the mail in.
That's what they would be for me.
Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
You could, you could, you could put the wire us
with their models going after tims. That a good point,
that is very specific in a world where they try
to get everybody covered. Yeah, single picture that looks I
mean that honestly is like a fear of God. Vibe
with it. I actually really did.
Speaker 3 (01:03:12):
Why don't you what is what is stopping you from net?
Speaker 5 (01:03:15):
You could actually this? This would look really good on
your name. Like I'm just saying, like I think you
could pull this look off because this is like this
is lazy fashion, not saying fashion that's like lazily put together.
Speaker 2 (01:03:28):
It is.
Speaker 5 (01:03:29):
You are comfy, but you still look good and it
looks like you took time to think.
Speaker 3 (01:03:34):
Yeah you get them.
Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
Yeah, I'm all four of the sweatpants. But we just
need to look at this guy.
Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Yeah, yeah, he looks so comforting.
Speaker 4 (01:03:43):
You could do what I just bro I think I'm
with Dan, Like You're like, I don't have it's too lesual.
Speaker 3 (01:03:50):
I don't have the confidence.
Speaker 5 (01:03:52):
This in this summer fit. Look at that get so fly,
look at this. You get that throwing some bro?
Speaker 3 (01:04:01):
Yeah, what's stopping you?
Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
What's stopping when you get home tonight? I want you
to peruse this the ug website with Libby and just
be like, all right, I'm thinking about over.
Speaker 3 (01:04:11):
How many Libby Bucks does it take?
Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
If you guys.
Speaker 1 (01:04:16):
Miss the conversion rate of Libby Bucks to ug.
Speaker 2 (01:04:18):
Bus, I'm talking to this one. If you missed last
week's Libby Bucks conversation, Livy.
Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
Bucks was fun. I've gotten Look, I've got hit at home.
Speaker 5 (01:04:29):
He's got green, he's got green ugs on matching that
green right there. Now that's no.
Speaker 4 (01:04:35):
I'm gonna be real with y'all. I got it in you.
You will never be that cool.
Speaker 3 (01:04:40):
Yeah yeah, no, listen, no, but you should try.
Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
You could.
Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
I'm looking at it.
Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
That that cool and I saw the way he was posing.
Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
No, I got a moment.
Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
We're gonna pull this one.
Speaker 3 (01:04:54):
Here's the way I did look like that you pull.
Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
Off, Dave. Here's the real question. We can we can
move on from now?
Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
You want to you? I want you to just get
the ugs. I think you could do some. But I
saw that guy who was looking too cool. I was like, yeah,
I can't do that.
Speaker 2 (01:05:08):
Here's the real question. Is that man that we just highlighted,
that's basically in every single one. They apparently only could
afford three models despite charging so much money, so much
money for their clothes. Uh. Is he wearing that outfit
in the streets?
Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
Absolutely? Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
Yeah, I don't look, but I'm about to buy a
bunch of black.
Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
Man and jeans. He's not in the house, he's going somewhere.
Speaker 2 (01:05:36):
I would rock that on vacation. Now you think you can.
Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
Put that off? That this little what is this color?
Speaker 1 (01:05:42):
I don't know if I could pull off that color
because that kind of little bit.
Speaker 5 (01:05:46):
Yeah, that's that's a black only. Yeah, I don't I
think you can pull this color off.
Speaker 1 (01:05:54):
I could. I'd have to be careful because that's what
color my skin turns if I stay in the sun
too long. M hm, So I gotta be care That's
got to be like an early summer.
Speaker 3 (01:06:03):
I don't want that for you.
Speaker 5 (01:06:04):
No, I do like that role I've done to plug
to plug your album that's coming up, Yeah, ugs, No,
send me stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
What if Dan.
Speaker 5 (01:06:13):
Sponsored it and he addressed you, because we're gonna talk
and then this isn't like we're trying to make you
look bad. Dan wants you to succeed more than you
want you to succeed, because Dan believes in yourself.
Speaker 3 (01:06:26):
So full disclosure can.
Speaker 5 (01:06:29):
We are because that David, we're like texting during.
Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
