And on November 29th, 2023, the Bristol boys, not to be confused with Bristol boys, are
(00:07):
back, formerly known as Lottie and Mack.
We're missing Angry Jay's absence tonight in his chair.
The Don father moves over one and the Commish gets his own microphone this evening.
As always, sponsored by Sky Gazer Brewing, keeping us afloat, no pun intended, and Capital
Securities has gotten on the board as a huge sponsor.
(00:29):
Hey Mack, what do you want to do with these phone books that Jay was sitting on?
You look tall over there Don father, must be the pomade.
So in tonight's episode, we're going to be talking about college hoops, the NBA in a
nutshell, the NFL rundown, and we're going to tease you with some upcoming interviews
(00:50):
that we have locked in.
College basketball update and this comes to you by Capital Securities, Joe Moriello, Vice
President.
Joe was telling me the other day that proper planning prevents poor performance and his
company's motto is, a life well planned.
Let me write that down.
(01:10):
I'm going to start following that motto, I think my wife already knows that.
When we say college basketball update, we're mainly sticking with the Husky dogs and the
Scarlet Knights, but we'll touch on everybody as we love college basketball season.
Some big games tonight, big games this weekend, and things are really going to heat up now
that matchups are going to get real with conference play.
(01:32):
The Huskies, national champions defending the title with a seven and O mark.
And they're not just playing, you know, the sisters of the poor every night.
They got a top 25 win over number 15, Texas.
So I believe at that point was a little higher, right?
Indiana.
And Indiana, they got a drubbing actually of a big 10 squad.
(01:52):
Love it when Indiana gets pounded because they got some salty guys on that roster.
I don't love the coach.
I've been down on them for, since the general left.
They haven't been any good.
Well, it's a great job too.
I don't know what's going on with that, you know?
How many coaches have they had in the last 25 years?
Creen, Creen.
Mike Davis.
(02:13):
Samson?
Did they have him?
Calvin Samson ran him into the ground.
Who's this clown now?
Mike Woodson.
Woodson seems like he's big league in the big 10.
Can he, can he get in?
Who was the guy that used to be for Dayton?
Oh, I know who it is.
Archie Miller.
Archie Miller got some good fast break stuff out there on YouTube coaching friends.
(02:35):
Yeah, they can't figure it out.
And then you can also beat a bunch of also rands not named Bryant University.
They have not played them.
Dodger and Bryant.
Yeah.
And instead Bryant took it out on Springfield.
The Martellys like to mix it up though.
No, they want to play.
They want to play what they want to play the best.
And Philly guys.
(02:56):
Hey, Bobby Mack, you kind of playing at MSG as much as they do now.
How cool is that?
Unbelievable, right?
I love those neutral side games over there.
Yeah.
You got to love the Big East tournament, man.
There's buzz about it again.
It just, it'll never be, will it?
It'll never be like it was.
It's getting there with these coaches now though.
(03:18):
Rick Pitino.
It's, it's going to be, it's, well, it's not going to be like it was in the early
to mid eighties.
You're right.
But they're, they're trying.
That's for sure.
I had the opportunity to cover the Big East tournament and the NCAA tournament and the
Big East tournament to me was more fun.
Those four days are more fun.
To be in New York, bright lights, all that kind of stuff.
(03:38):
It's just, it's been, it's unbelievable.
Do you see UConn's next three games?
I love the schedule.
I love the schedule.
Good job by Hurley.
Kansas, Kansas, Carolina, Gonzaga in Seattle.
They look like they're just as complete this year as they were last year.
Right?
I think Samson has been unbelievable.
(03:58):
Yeah.
And Spencer is absolutely fit.
I hate to admit it, but him and Carra have been on the wings, knocked down shooters and
Newton, I'll be the first to admit I wasn't high on him last year.
I was completely wrong.
Kid is a college, he's a stud for college basketball.
Absolutely.
I think they lost to Aline.
We saw him down at St. John's at exhibition game.
(04:19):
He's no joke either.
He's solid.
I'll tell you, a lot of people are down on Diarra, but he has a role on that team.
He's a dog.
He plays defense.
Yeah, you're right.
He speeds them up a little bit.
He plays his 10, 12 minutes and he plays the way Hurley wants him to play.
And the kid, Castle, has only played two games.
They're saying he's going to be a lottery pick.
He's only played two games.
But they keep hyping him up.
(04:39):
He's got to have something.
I'll tell you, the announcers who've done their homework are talking about him being
the real deal.
We haven't seen it yet, but we're going to.
Diarra, more like a Selvia or a Rudy Johnson?
Well, he's a guard.
He's a guard, but he's more Rudy-ish.
Well, he's more, would you say like a Talik Brown?
(05:02):
Rash is not bad.
He's not bad.
Rash late in his career.
He's kind of a choppy player.
He's bigger than Rash.
That's why he went with those bigger guys.
Rash is a good analogy, but Jones was more of a scorer when he first got to UConn and
then they just recruited over him.
But by the end of his career, he had a nice role, too.
Number four, UConn at number five, Kansas, Friday night at Fog Allen.
(05:27):
That's going to be a test.
Capital Securities Vice President Joe Moriello will be in the house because he planned this.
He planned it out.
A trip well planned.
So the Oak and a big NCAA early season matchup, just about kicking off conference play, even
though this one's not a conference, the Oak would have matchup.
(05:47):
It's a unique matchup.
He's not going to see that too often.
The guy's going to take him out around the three point line.
It's going to be interesting to see how he adjusts to that.
He looks so much different to me.
Obviously, he's our guy.
We're rooting like hell for him.
Just looks lean, right?
Yeah.
And he's just, man, did you see how New Hampshire was trying to play him the other night?
They fronted him with a six-six guy with no help behind him.
(06:08):
That's silly.
How do you think that's going to work out?
And minimal ball pressure for the guy lobbing it into him.
Nice preparation.
Samson takes a lot of pressure off him, I think, the way he's playing.
He gets up and down the floor.
You think about what they lost last year at the center position, but he's definitely helping.
You think it's almost like the roles are reversed?
He's what Klingon was for Sonogo.
(06:30):
I do.
I do.
13, 14 minutes are coming handy.
His athleticism is off the charts.
And Donovan is really good at what he does.
Samson brings that dimension of the athleticism that I think is going to make them a dangerous
team come March.
I remember last year they were thinking he would come back and jump right into rotation
and be something and like, nah, this is the year for that guy.
(06:51):
Did you hear the story that Hurley said?
He came back last year, right?
Did you hear the story about Johnson that Hurley was talking about?
He said all these coaches in the offseason were trying to convince.
Oh yeah.
Get in the portal.
Get in the portal.
Hurley's like, kid wants to stay at UConn.
They protected him, you can tell.
For good reason.
(07:12):
I think Henry J. was right about Hawkins.
He was struggling.
I know a couple people here that were wrong about a lot of things in terms of basketball.
Wemby.
We'll get back to that.
Wemby.
We'll get back to that Don Father.
How much more bright can I be?
Right.
Somebody said Chet Holmgren was going to be a bust.
How's he doing?
Yeah.
(07:33):
I know we're skipping over to the end.
How's his teammate doing?
He grew up in the bush.
We don't know.
We don't know the full story on that yet.
He grew up in the bush, right?
Let that be.
Australia?
Let that be.
Crikey's.
All right.
Rutgers.
The Scarlet Knights recovering after the opening night lost to Princeton, 5-1.
(07:55):
They take on the fight in the line-eye Saturday at 4 o'clock in Piscataway kicking off Big
Ten action.
To be honest though, they don't know who they are yet.
They're struggling.
They're still missing a big piece in MAG.
Coming back.
I'm thinking he comes back Saturday.
I don't know.
But we're also waiting for another guy to come back or show up.
(08:16):
That's Gavin Griffiths from Connecticut.
I don't think he knows how good he is yet or he's maybe just not used to playing both
ends of the floor.
But wait until he hits full stride.
He's got to figure it out.
That's the first we got to figure it out.
Illinois is ranked, right?
They got Illinois.
They got Wake Forest and Seton Hall next three games.
So they're going to find out a lot about Rutgers.
(08:37):
I think they're right on the fringe.
Yeah.
They got Seton Hall too?
They got Illinois, Wake Forest and Seton Hall.
So I want to talk about Seton Hall.
Did you guys see Shaheen Holloway?
I did.
So that guy, he had the problem with Wagner's coach Copeland.
He was a great guard for Seton Hall.
So they're both Seton Hall alums, both guards.
(08:58):
And in the handshake line, he pulls a hardball, Jim Schwartz on him and shoves him and all
this and that and then cries, you know, talks about what a great guy he was after the game.
We got a double standard somehow with some guys that are liked to get away with certain
behaviors and the people that aren't liked don't get away with them.
Yeah, I agree with that.
Holloway was everybody's darling a year or two ago.
(09:21):
What was the backstory on that though?
Was there an exchange during the game?
I'm guessing because they're both like dog point guard types that they don't wait for
the action really.
And I think they're probably exchange a word or two down the stretch, maybe starters coming
out or taking layups.
(09:41):
And you know, who can puff their chest out more?
That's basically what is and then that posturing afterward comes the time you got to be a professional.
Just shake the hand and move on.
If you got a problem with him, you can talk to him in plenty of places in that arena.
I don't care for that kind of stuff.
There is favoritism.
You see that was a Kansas VCU, right?
And Bill Self and Shaka started yelling because players were making threes and talking to
(10:02):
the bench after and Shaka's player I think got a T and Bill Self's player didn't for
doing the exact same thing.
And like the Shaka's like, what are we doing differently?
Like there's absolutely some fancism.
Yeah, so Self gets away with it.
What is that?
Oh, you're talking about Marquette?
You mean Marquette?
Yeah, I'm sorry.
That's how I know you man.
But yeah, I did see that.
Yep.
Shaka coaches Marquette.
(10:23):
It was VCU at one point.
He made his name of VCU Final Four.
Along the same lines players too and I've been watching a lot of this on like Instagram.
Check us out on Instagram.
Executive producer Kevin Ross making waves back there.
Expect that the Don father and some short videos coming up about fantasy football.
(10:44):
We have a lot in the works.
But the stuff I've been watching, taunting videos are very popular.
So you make a three and you scream at everybody, you dunk and you step over somebody.
Since when is that like a lot?
Those are technicals and then second tech you're ejected, right?
But we got to have officials start cracking down on this.
(11:05):
It's creeping into the youth levels and it's going to be dangerous at some point.
Matter of fact, some of these AAU clips, they are dangerous.
The AAU kids are eight years old and they're like, you know, telling someone you're too
short.
Yeah, what is that?
You're four foot tall.
Yeah.
Oh, the two short sign?
It starts with the coach starts at home.
Where was rapper too short from?
You guys remember?
(11:26):
I think he's from California, wasn't it?
Oakland.
Don father didn't know it.
Anyway, enough with the college basketball.
A lot coming up.
I mean, conference play is going to be crazy.
This tournament will be as unpredictable as the last few.
This is like the best time of year.
Friday night as much watch.
You can't Kansas.
Yeah.
Even though it's a weird time, like who's not watching?
(11:48):
What time is it?
Nine o'clock.
Don father's going to be in bed.
Don father have his robe and his slippers on.
I have my Syracuse slippers.
I have my smoking jacket on.
I have my pipe going at that time.
Big win for the orange last night.
Come on.
Oh God.
Red Autry getting it done?
By 20, they beat OSU?
Come on.
What do you mean come on?
They ran them out of the gym.
Where was it?
(12:09):
It's a dome.
Is it the dome?
Oh, here we go.
Oh God.
Superdome?
I am rooting for Syracuse to be prominent again.
It's good for college basketball in this part of the country.
Yeah we need it.
It's good for the crap ACC.
We'll see.
Get the Q's back in the Big East.
(12:31):
Them in BC have some regrets I'm sure.
Let's shift gears to something everybody wants to talk about.
The NBA in a nutshell can be wrapped up with how exciting this in season tournament is.
I have a couple questions and you can speak for yourselves and anyone you know.
(12:52):
Do you know or do you guys care?
Like what are they doing?
I know what's going on.
Do I care?
No.
I mean if you watched that Celtics game last night, that was awful.
Oh, Hacker Drumming?
Yeah.
They had a win by 24.
It's happening with every team that had a chance to get to the final eight.
(13:13):
It's happening.
Because I was watching the Knicks and they did allude to what you were talking about
with Drumming but Julius Randall was in the game with two minutes to go and Knicks were
up 20 something points because of the point differential.
I don't view the games any differently.
But a couple players made a good point on the Knicks.
Just because again I was watching the game.
(13:34):
They want to win it so the guys 13, 14, 15 on the bench get $500,000.
That's motivation for that team in particular.
They're going to lose their next game anyways, Knicks.
It doesn't matter.
Whatever.
But I don't view the games any differently.
I don't like the integrity of the game, like the Hacker Drumming type stuff.
(13:56):
I don't like that kind of stuff.
And even Josh Hart alluded to it.
He goes that's not real basketball.
He didn't care for that type of stuff when the Knicks had all their starters.
What do you think, Commissioner?
I think it makes it more exciting now.
Guys aren't sitting out of games.
That's what they're trying to address.
(14:16):
How about you, Bobby Mack?
I know the guys are playing and that was the low management stuff.
You haven't heard about it during these two weeks.
One of the issues I have is, again I'll take it from a Knicks perspective, they made the
Elite 8, the Final 8, whatever you want to call it.
And now they have two regular season games before they play the quote unquote playoff
(14:37):
game against the Bucs on Wednesday.
So if you're going to have this tournament, don't you want the continuity of the tournament?
Yeah, they've got to figure it out.
I don't think it's going away.
And the rules and baseball change, trying to make the game better, trying to do things
that excite the fans, I think it's a good thing.
It's going to come down to what the ratings end up being for these things, right?
In another couple weeks, we'll see.
(14:58):
But the NBA seems like an organization that doesn't need gimmicky things.
It's a global game.
It's been for a while.
Stern laid down the groundwork and Silver is now, he's trying to beat something that
they don't need to be.
The only problem in the NBA is that load management thing.
(15:20):
That's it.
The product is, I mean you can't even afford to go to a game.
This is crazy.
People all over the world want to go see these players play.
Would you rather see the Celtics play the 76ers on Saturday in just a regular game or
see them play the Pacers in the semifinals on Wednesday night?
In Vegas.
Yeah.
I'd rather see them play in the 76ers than the Pacers because it's an end season tournament.
(15:43):
That's me.
I watch every game.
Me too.
Instead of going to a hockey arena in Vegas.
It seems like Silver, he's got a little too much juice in the NBA.
He's not a dictator, he's the commissioner.
Because he's still in the shadow of Stern, right?
Commish.
Yeah, would you disrupt the whole podcast?
(16:05):
Just because you want to?
I have plenty of time as well.
Mostly by my absence, but.
The Commish.
You've been busy.
You've been busy.
You've got bigger things to worry about this weekend.
Which we'll talk about in a moment.
Anyway.
Good tease.
So there's eight teams left?
Is that right?
Yep.
(16:25):
And they'll play like a quarter semi-final?
Yeah, the Knicks play the Bucks and the Pacers play the Celtics, correct?
And the East.
And then out West, I don't know who plays who, but it's Lakers, Suns.
Kings.
Kings and New Orleans.
Impromptu Hoosier rather.
Kings play New Orleans.
SGA or Halliburton?
I asked my son this the other day.
(16:48):
I think he's unbelievable.
SGA is unbelievable.
Man, this kid Halliburton, he could shoot better than I thought though.
I mean, it doesn't look good, but it goes in.
I'll take Halliburton.
I've seen some stat lines where he's like 32 and 15 assists.
That doesn't happen in the NBA anymore.
It's because they score.
I know.
They're up and down.
They're scoring 130 points a game.
Strong knobs to Obie.
(17:09):
So my son said that SGA is already him and Halliburton is going to be him.
And I think I could live with that.
That's fair.
I'm partial to the point guards.
I love the point guards.
One last thing.
I think maybe you said it.
What is the purpose of the tournament?
(17:30):
Did you say just to break up monotony?
The season just started.
What's monotony?
It's based on the professional soccer leagues over in Europe, right?
Yeah.
Because they stopped their season for this in-season tournament, but they only played
six, seven regular season games and then here comes the in-season tournament.
Just to generate some excitement going in.
You know what I mean?
But once you're out of it, then what?
(17:51):
I mean.
You still play a lot of games.
You know what happened?
The Cavs got eliminated last night, quote unquote, and they picked up two extra games.
So I think every team went in with an 80 games schedule.
You can adjust it by one or two.
They're also going to play 82 games, except the two teams that make the finals will play
83 games.
Loser bracket-ish or just in the...
(18:12):
No.
Like you lose, you're done.
All right.
So this is what I think.
And I hope the commission is listening.
He is.
When we get one of our possible new guests, he's going to have to listen because this
guy will drop a bomb on him out of Bristol.
I would say that you somehow figure out a tournament where it's a winner's bracket going
(18:37):
to the end to see who wins it much like an NCAA tournament, like seed them.
As you lose, you get placed against other opponents and you play the same amount of
games.
You play, let's say, four, five, six games.
And then based on your records or statistics or differential in those amount of games,
(18:58):
obviously the ones who went the furthest get paid the most and then get all the way down
to where the last...
However many teams get minimal payment.
So then you're still playing.
If you're playing for money, which I do love that idea, let everybody play for money instead
of once you're out, you're out.
(19:19):
I don't like that.
Once you're out, you're out.
That's a terrible idea.
Why?
What, do you work for the CIAC?
Come on.
What do you mean?
There's no losers bracket in the CIAC and no money involved.
Of course there's no losers bracket.
Half the teams in the...
Look at the football.
You got great teams like Southington and Greenwich and these teams.
You get teams that finish four and six.
(19:40):
They're making the tournament.
Southington was six and four.
Yeah.
That's not four and six.
Maloney, Staples.
Why is he jumping to...
Why is he jumping to the...
What are you talking about?
We shouldn't be talking about...
It's kind of talking about CIAC.
You were talking about the CIAC at that.
The plaque got into it, right?
My point is they got to figure out a way to have every team playing for something in this
(20:01):
tournament format so that when you lose, you're just not out.
You mean the whole way through?
Yeah.
So I understand what you're saying.
Every team plays four games in this so-called tournament, but your point is win, loss, whatever,
if you win, you continue to get paid.
More.
Even if you move over to the loser's bracket.
Yeah.
So everybody gets a trophy.
(20:22):
No.
Everybody gets money.
I mean, they get paid anyway.
We're trying to keep...
Listen, the NBA's got enough money.
They could pay to do this.
That's what I'm saying.
Great.
I think Bobby Mack's point is we're trying to keep the players on the court, right?
We want to incentivize it a little bit.
Yeah.
So if you want player 15 to get paid, keep playing even though you lost your first three
games, James Harden.
Yeah.
Sorry, Ladi.
Sorry.
(20:43):
Sorry for what?
It just goes to show the NFL's king.
They don't have to do any of this stuff, right?
I mean, it just...
Well, they're going to Germany and London and all that other stuff too.
Yeah, but that's explaining the game there, but I mean, there's no gimmick.
There's no changing things.
It's kind of like they got the product and the product works, but they got to change
stuff.
I want to see Cuban selling half a steak in the Mavs.
And leaving the Shark Tank.
(21:04):
Yeah.
Double retirement.
We got a shot to buy the Mavs.
How many?
What do we got here?
Seven guys, eight guys?
Two billion for 60%.
Ches Colvin.
We need Ches Colvin.
He's selling 60% for two billion.
He bought the franchise for I think 300 million.
(21:25):
Guy knows what he's doing.
I think he did okay.
True story.
I once peed next to him in Pittsburgh.
Who, Ches?
UConn Pittsburgh, at Pittsburgh.
No.
Cuban.
He's a Pittsburgh grad.
Where were you?
At Pittsburgh.
UConn Pittsburgh.
Oh, UConn Pittsburgh.
I was in the bathroom and then we were sharing.
College hoops or football?
College hoops.
He's not in a suite or like a private...
Oh, right next to me.
Did somebody hold it for him or did he have to...
(21:45):
I held it for him.
Oh, okay.
That makes more sense.
Didn't he also invest in a vodka brand with Turtle?
Turtle from that...
He did.
He did.
Absolutely.
What was the name of that?
Was it Avione?
What was it?
Was that Avione?
Was it Avione?
Because it wasn't...
Casamigos was different.
I think it was Avione, yeah.
Yeah.
(22:06):
Casamigos is Clooney, right?
Call it.
Casamigos is Clooney.
Yeah.
All right.
So we digress.
Seltz best record in the NBA.
Doesn't matter just yet, but they do look pretty good.
Without Porzingis, I already hurt.
I know.
One of your predictions.
You know what though?
They need them down to stretch.
That's what I need them.
100%.
Two weeks.
Best thing in the NBA right now.
(22:27):
Ladi, don't get in there with the Knicks.
No, I don't have much to say about them.
Best thing in the NBA right now, the most satisfying thing is the Clippers.
Clippers.
Imploding.
Love it.
Who wouldn't have predicted that though?
I mean, I don't want to dislike Kawhi or Paul George, but I do just because they're playing
with that jackass.
(22:48):
Why would anybody take him on?
I'm not even talking about the money.
I'm talking about the player.
Why would you want him in your organization?
You don't need to sell tickets in LA.
Your seats are full.
I wouldn't buy a ticket just because James Harden is coming to town.
I hate that style of basketball.
Jack will be there anyway, at least for the league show he will.
(23:11):
What is it?
How bad are they doing?
Imploding, right?
Are they all in seven since they got them?
No, they've won since they got them.
They've won a couple lately, but I think they were all for something for a while.
One thing, move Westbrook to the bench.
He's always the one that sacrifices.
But at least he plays, I don't like him, but at least he plays hard.
He plays hard, but he's always the one that comes out and sacrifices and says, I'll take
a back seat so we can get some chemistry.
(23:33):
How many times is he going to go after a fan in this thing?
Oh, no.
I'm not talking about that.
I'm not talking about that.
I agree with you.
Yeah, that's enough is enough.
There's seven and nine overall.
He can't reform.
The other thing with the NBA is that, how bad are the Pistons?
I didn't see.
I thought they had all these young guys.
Yeah, they got Cunningham, they got Ivy and they just they can't figure it out.
(23:55):
They're not even starting Ivy.
Ivy's come out the bench.
Yeah, they got cutting hand they got ivy and they just they can't figure it out
Starting ivy I just come up the bench. I'm like, I don't understand why he's not starting
Giving a chance. They're really nice. He's an IV I think
They're two and 15 now this is anyone have the over on them
(24:22):
He's not here so he definitely had him we can't beat up the anger one tonight in the spurs are three and 14 with wemby
He's your kind of command just dropped another one
There are three and 14, but that doesn't mean he's a different maker right there
No one no one said he was gonna catapult them to the playoffs, but you said he was gonna be a bust
You are what your record says you are. Oh god. What do you Dennis Green?
(24:45):
LeBron made the NBA finals the second year in a week. Hey, does Memphis miss John a little bit?
See what Marcus smart said I
Saw the huddle this sh. It is embarrassing. Yeah people are paying money to come see us play and this is what we're doing
Anyway, he finds himself in a trade and gets himself back to that could be in town wouldn't shock me wouldn't well
(25:07):
I don't think he's gonna stay in Memphis
He'll demand a trade get out of there. Maybe it's a Dylan Brooks effect as much as we all hate him
They won with him. Look at the Rockets this year way better than people thought they were gonna be I think we all agree
He's a clown
But he he competes he gets those young guys to play harder than they're used to playing doesn't stink either
(25:27):
How come the Bulls can't win?
Billy Donovan last thing on the NBA 5 and 14 Billy Donovan's become a caricature of a coach another guy that should have never left
College he's a cartoon now like he's just an what we don't have a coach. What are you gonna hire Billy Donovan?
Yeah, he should always stay to Florida forever stay in college. It's a college. You're never gonna win when Zach Wavine your best player either
(25:48):
He's just not that guy about drumming shooting less than 40% from the line dude, Connecticut's Connecticut's own Andre drumming
Yeah
Andre seen better days
So at the end who are we gonna be looking at? We're gonna be looking at the Lakers
I hate to say it or hate to say the Lakers, but we will
Celtics will be in a mix. You think the Lakers huh? Without a doubt the um be able to make sure they're somewhere in the final four
(26:13):
Hmm Celtics and Bucks are the best teams in the East I think the best teams in basketball personally
But well, I don't disagree with what you said about Bucks Bucks also
Well the East stinks the Bucks the Nuggets and I think not rolling out the Suns man. No, you can't they're healthy
Are you ruin? Don't laugh at me. Are you ruling out the Knicks knowing that don't laugh?
(26:37):
We're just let me finish. I don't think you have to finish. Let me finish. They're gonna make a trade they
Have to otherwise they're gonna be the same as they were last year before to get what?
You watch what do they need? I texted you the other night said a nice comeback win and
You're like down the stretch. What do they need? They need to get rid of Randall and
(27:00):
They got to bring in that because you want to or because I know they need to
They need to if you want to get points in return then what if they can get and bead?
Well if he's not
The Knicks got like ten first-round picks and quickly like there's there's guys that other teams would want you wouldn't want to get rid of
(27:21):
Quickly you're gonna have to if you want to bring back a star though
How many guards do you need
So you want to but you want a big guy? Yeah
So you would have to get rid of Mitchell Robinson quickly Randall and picks Sixers would say no
I hate to say I think you're out some that's not an awful trade
(27:41):
They got a ton of first round I could see him in New York, too
Yeah, ask whoo, whoever wins a trade is one ends up with the best player
Which is indeed you know what sucks about that is Durant was impatient once Dreymon became Dreymon was a jerk to him
Like I always thought a guy like that would end up there
Durant? Yeah, I think he was I think he was gonna go there until he tore his knee
(28:05):
Because remember that because the Knicks didn't want him want to pay him that much to not play the first year
How about Jimmy Buckets? He can't be doing this forever. He would never go to the Riley would never trade him to the Knicks
So I mean I would love a player like that. They need that guy, but Riley would never do it
Did you guys see it? Deandre Jordan with the
Time machine the other night. Not even last night
(28:29):
He had like six or eight dunks against
The Clippers his old team Deandre Jordan he was like a he was like
What do you call it the goon the toon squad?
He was getting up over everybody and yamming these alley oops
And you know who was throwing them to him is I didn't realize he was on a nugget is Reggie Jackson
(28:50):
Mr. October from Boston College
He's tough. Yeah, he's good. He's got a nice career. Is it the nuggets is that one thing about Deandre Jordan's on the nuggets?
Yeah, yeah, I don't think he got off the bench. I don't think Reggie was with them
I mean they they got a ton of guys to they'll be there at the end. They got the best player in the league
They definitely will
(29:11):
Don father you okay, they want to chew in the mic
Yes, I thought I thought I was gonna have to spring into action there for a second
I already started the Heimlich Wow happen to Don father
Why'd you have to go all the way down there?
Because we call this background noise. I want to make sure you can focus on what we got going on here
You don't father for those at home. I've got a central volleyball. He dumped under the desk and did something
(29:35):
We don't know what he's doing. But apparently it was a life-saving
Let's take it off. It was take over angry J. Somebody has to go to the desk when angry J's down here
So I forgot my
Pants of you. What did you do over there? Get out of his pants? I think he saw I think he saw the lack of
Moving on all right NBA whatever we got months to worry about it. I
(29:57):
Would like to move on to the National Football League and this is when we bring in
the Don father Don father
Let's go
I want to
I want I want you guys to it's just a blank. This is one of those blank
I'm gonna give you their opponent you tell me who the team is that I'm talking about
(30:21):
They have played they've beaten the Giants the Jets the Patriots the Chargers the Rams
The Giants again the Panthers and the commanders
Boys
Yes, how many teams are the winning record have they beat?
zero worry about it people are riding the cowboys like they're the
(30:45):
Eagles they haven't beat a team with a winning record when they did what happened to get beat by 70 to the Niners
They actually gave the Eagles a decent game and he also lost the Cardinals game
We had a first and goal with like 30 to go
That's why I said decent game the Eagles are playing with them just like they play with the Bills this weekend
You were just playing with some cowboys there
You get just get off the cowboy with the Cowboys
(31:06):
I'm weeks, but the Cowboys actually could get their first win against a winning record tomorrow night
Against the Seahawks and if they win the Seahawks won't have a winning record anymore
So that's still they'll be back on the no teams are the winning record
I mean they could actually go the entire season and not be the team with a winning record because they're not gonna be the Eagles when
They play him again either
So what do you take out of that what's your thing everybody saying the Cowboys are gonna be the second best team the NFC it could be a
(31:32):
favorite
The prognosticators on ESPN first of all I don't want to mention ESPN on this on this thing
I've well they don't ask me who said it freaking Stephen a Smith
Their news now is what even a Smith says go
If you go on the app Oh Stephen a Smith is down on the Cowboys. There's like a video on it. What how's that news?
(31:53):
Report the games best town of our generation or the game TMZ. That's what it is
Who's our dumpster fire a week could be a lot of teams? I?
Know Giants won right here. Oh, yeah
Jets can't know when yes, who's our quarterback?
(32:13):
Kevin mentioned it before I mean Tim Boyle from Zayn I mean come on. That's your alma mater
They went what I think was 11 quarters without scoring a touchdown. I mean, that's just there
They're there should have just stuck with Zach and there was a third or fourth odds to win the Super Bowl beginning of the year
Well, that changed four snaps and a run
(32:34):
Got clear to practice see that today and Rogers cleared to practice a
Clear to pray you might hate the guy, but if he actually comes back this year, that would be amazing
I can't stand him, but that would think he's gonna come back
I think when they're gonna be four and nine is not gonna make much sense from to come back
But it took me four years to get over my Achilles injury
I couldn't mow the lawn for three and a half years and then
(32:54):
You sure that's what I was back. Yeah
You think he just wants to come back to see if he's gonna be healthy moving forward or no I give him credit
I mean I think I stick around he said, you know, he's got the head side of our influence on the sidelines
Let's see what happens. He's done a great job with Zach Wilson
What he's a good mentor
He's just I'm just figure it out I'm saved by the bell I think
(33:21):
Direct snap to meal right now. Yeah. Good call number 24. Let's go. I
Will jump in a little number stuff. We'll jump a little start setting before we get into some some fan favorite trivia
So last week if y'all listen to the cast last week as we all yeah in Texas. I was this week
(33:41):
I know you tell start that's not way on top of your head starts
This is not a hat. I said start Trevor Lawrence 364 yards two toddies last week
I said start Bijan first two touchdown game of his career
Right, and I said sit Kamara and Joe mix and Joe mix and 16 yards. That's just
You know have a quarter father's on fire dad team. Oh, I don't think I've been wrong in three weeks
(34:05):
You know angry Jason knocking you of course. He has what else does he have to do?
He's got to knock somebody's three foot two when he's
I never had I never got that impression three foot two and his team lost by 20 tonight
I mean why I was angry to come in here with tape measure next week. Oh listen
They can put that on you ain't touching me with that again. I
Got the over last time though
(34:26):
When he tried that?
This week we're gonna start to I know people say oh you got to start to he's been bad his last three to
I don't even how to pronounce his last name. I'll be at the less than 13 points in two of his last three games
I know what you're going with up, but he's gonna have a huge game against Washington Washington's terrible
they have about 20 points to quarterbacks eight times this year including two in a row to
(34:48):
Tommy DeVito and tie right Taylor a couple weeks ago. I mean
Tommy DeVito was good in twins. Oh, yeah, and that's always sunny in Philadelphia
taxi
That was rigger hot stuff right here
You gotta say you gotta say Gino against your boys
Jersey much is I don't like the boys salivating over that sandwich Gino is falling off a cliff right now Gino Smith falling off a cliff
(35:15):
he scored 16 points or less in all but two games this year and Dallas is holding quarterbacks to a
12 fantasy points a game or less so Dallas might be overrated, but they're tough on opposing quarterback especially at home
I'm not seeing where to overrated things coming in with Dallas. Is that personal for you?
I'm a fan who's a Giants fan. I'm just an NFL fan. Oh, yeah, we're very very neutral
(35:40):
To sense in about this only 13 teams with a running record in four of them are six and five
so
Parity that's what they want national football league
executive producer Kevin Ross good that's a good job with the abacus still you've got an abacus in there from that one
We're starting Rashad white this week against Carolina. I just had whites been great. Everybody's great against Carolina
(36:02):
But he's had 15 or more PPR points five of his last six games and Carolina's allowed 17 points per game to running backs
nine times this season
We're sitting the Terminator
Against his former team
Pittsburgh diesel out less than three yards a carry in the last three games since Kim Heyward's been back their offense still stinks without new
(36:23):
OC
They've got 400 yards last week for the first time right without Canada first time
They've outgained their opponents all season, even though they still have a good record
All season. So again, you're gonna sit the Terminator cuz he also has six receiving yards total in his three games back total
In three games and you need him to get PPR. He's not a value
(36:43):
Receivers we're gonna start IU against the Eagles. I'm glad Jay's not here, but Phil is terrible against the perimeter
They've allowed 12 touchdown receptions to guys in the perimeter
They're sharing given the most fantasy points to perimeter receivers tough on the inside, which is weird because they're bad against tight ends
Good slot receivers bad in the perimeter. It's just weird to kind of have that that little layer
(37:03):
But I think their secondary is overrated. They also give up a ton of points people don't with Eagles defense
They give up a ton of points go to like 28 points a game. I think
I mean, it's terrible what a game last game though, huh? That was
Going in no, I was hoping it wasn't but it was amazing hell the kick if I'm Josh Allen
I'm disgusted after that game, but we're also sitting Chris Godwin this week. He's just terrible
(37:26):
He's just terrible. He's averaging four single-digit fantasy points the last four games
Bake is
Getting a little he's not getting in the ball. Oh, he's Evans Evans. He's Max guy Evans Evans. I mean Evans is pretty good
Revival he's gonna have what I said tenth year in a row Evans by the way is gonna have a thousand yards first guy in
NFL history to do that
We're starting for tight ends like we're wrapping up with tight ends starting to have an Ingram first the Bengals Bengals
(37:50):
Stink and since you allowed 20 points to our 200. Yeah 20 points to pet frying with this weekend
I mean, that's nothing you're gonna worry about you're gonna sit the guy with a two touchdowns last week Tyler Higbee
He's playing a lot. He's Browns. They don't give up points to tight ends
They've given up double-digit points to one tight end his entire year
Yeah
(38:11):
Good last week we started quarterback this week
Could be flacko
He's QB too. I saw I know but DTR is not ready to go
How do you know you're in a car for eight hours?
He's concussed he is concussed you're concussed in a ride
I was in the ride in the car for 10 hours. All right, Mac. Let's go some trivia. No
(38:31):
You're right. I thought I just flipped to another page by the way for the audience. So I'm gonna be here a while here
Oh, no, it's a short made everyone over most of this. Well, Mar Jackson had a 39 Russian yards this weekend to get to
5,000 for his career. He's a fourth quarterback to get to 5,000 rushing yards for his career
Who are the other three in no order Michael Vick? He is one of them Randall Cunningham. He is not Fran Tarkin and
(38:55):
Cam Newton Cam Newton is to
Studio audience going to participate who is the third or now?
fourth but quarterback with 5,000 rushing yards for their career
Steve young I was gonna say they didn't run it much though back then I can give you a hint. This person is active
(39:16):
What team does he play for
What's his name?
Kyle
Josh Allen. Nope. Five thousand. Oh man in
Jackson hasn't been in the league. How many years? I think this is seven. So he averages six
When you say active is he a starter? He is a starter
(39:38):
Russell a muscle
Seven eight hundred yards a year on the ground in a web in one year
Yeah, are you trying our Jackson seven eight hundred yards a year on the ground in a web in one year and
This is an easy one a layup Jonathan Taylor now is 37 rushing TDs
Even though he missed a full season basically in his first four years
(40:01):
Breaking the Colts record for rushing not receiving rushing touchdowns in the first four years whose record did he beat?
Marshall yeah figured it was Marshall edge, right?
There's only two could alley-oop they could possibly had to give you get something easy
Dickerson might have been Dickerson might have been but it was
This is it. This one might be tricky. So our boy Davido from the DMC
(40:21):
All right, our boy to be tough in the Giants only only undrafted rookie quarterback to ever beat Bill Balachek
As he beat him, you know last weekend one other undrafted quarterback and beat Bill Balachek and I'll give you hints cuz this is a little
We're gonna go coaching for New England at the time. Yes
Yes, he was this was I'll give you I even give you the year 2005
(40:46):
That's a tremendous help division come on quickly NFC self
I love it that he wasn't a rookie, but he was undrafted
That would have been good if he played the NFC self
I
(41:07):
Don't know what number
Aaron Brooks Jake DeLome
Oh
What number 17 you got it
How about that NFL like everybody thought Josh Allen there's six and six, right he's gonna win eventually doesn't want anything
(41:29):
How about burrow can't stay on the field?
Franchise quarterbacks first time I mean jeez can't stand to feel
All right his hand moving on stand it, you know who stayed on the field was Bernie
Who are you fine? He said on Jeff's field who has the
(41:50):
Best touchdown interception ratio in the NFL this year. What's starting quarterback best touchdown interception ratio in the NFL this year?
I even give you the ratio if it helps 20 to 4
Touchdowns interception ratio not saying he has the most but that's the best ratio. So it's what five obviously. I'm not
I don't have my abacus out Kevin. That's five right five one twenty to four
(42:12):
He's a
Starter quarterback this year. It is not
AFC to a
Nope to a what?
To us too many receptions, right? Jeff
Not Patty Russell the muscle
(42:38):
So to piggyback off that who has the best single season touchdown to interception ratio
So my so Russ was five five to one. I'll tell you right now person who had it was 14 to 1
Breeze
That's a good guess so he had
28 and 2 or 14 and 1 right name Brady
(42:59):
To that. Yeah, Brady. What do you have for 2016? That's when he had a lot of six or what?
No, it's after Moss
To that was 2016 six and like four
That was Moss. It was mosses 2000. Yeah, but he had Gronk instead and Gronk and a guy from 16 is unbelievable
16 is unbelievable. All right, back. That's it for trivia. All right, great job Don father
(43:23):
Good job. Pame looks good. Only a good job. You did a good job
All right, I was a good job solid, you know what you're gonna get and say it's just all go dogs
Georgia number one looks like Georgia the Huskies are in the final four looks like
Not those Huskies the Washington Huskies
Florida State
(43:43):
They got a quarterback issue. Well, the other guys offered a year like his career is over and then Michigan
So it looks like those four are the four right now. I'll tell you something can't I watch Michigan Ohio State?
I loved it. Watch every every down
God do I not like watching a big big 10 football?
I wish they'd open it up a little bit and get you don't like run run pass run run pass every possession
(44:06):
No, or run run run. It's even run. But anyway, they're big and physical and they're old school
I guess it's the best way to put it
Yeah, that conference hasn't evolved and they have no chance to beat Georgia
Ohio State Oregon Texas and Bama on the outside looking in they'd obviously be in next year
as well as four other teams, but
Do you see any of those teams jumping in and how?
(44:30):
No, I think Georgia is gonna be Alabama. So George is in I think Florida State is gonna get in
I mean ACC is bad even with the backup quarterback. You can't keep an undefeated team that wins their
Power five conference out right you just can't I
Think Oregon Oregon beats the winner of the Oregon Washington game has it is in I think Oregon
(44:52):
Can get in with one loss if they want it. I think Florida State's gonna be interesting
I think it was without their quarterback. I mean they struggled
Granted Louisville lost to Kentucky this past weekend before the state is struggling. It's the one a five win for the team
And they do there they have one of the best quarterbacks in the country without him
They're not the same team and Louisville was ranked tenth. They were so I can give them a good game
(45:14):
Oh, they put their cards timing. They didn't have to win what they're not getting to a
They're not gonna get to the playoff anyway, so maybe they kind of well
Michigan's because they're playing Iowa. That's gonna be 22 point line like
27 nothing
So Georgia and Michigan I think are in
Yeah, all these are you think Georgia gets in even if they lose the Bama. I think it depends on who else
(45:37):
Yeah, winter loses because they say now Bama beats, Georgia
Texas wins. How do you put Bama in over Texas because Texas be Bama head-to-head
But then Georgia be Alabama Georgia is there ever a scenario and is this the one where an SEC school would not make?
Yes, it could happen. Yeah, that's crazy. I
Don't want to see that day. But yeah, honestly, that's crazy
(45:58):
I mean the SEC Championship could could be the national championship just about every year and Georgia hasn't lost in three years. I mean
Ohio State's the only team in the top eight that has no chance to get to the Final Four because they don't play
They don't play anymore. They would need like everybody's got everybody's got a perfect farm this weekend. I
(46:19):
Don't I don't hate the fact that Ohio State's got no shot either by the way, it's great crazy
LeBron likes Ohio State. Do you know that?
The go see those of course the goat likes him no LeBron James. Yeah, that's what I said to go
Derek Jeter was at Michigan all week that practices or she was offered by Michigan to play a little basketball
(46:40):
Kalamazoo Kalamazoo
All right, so interesting we come what'd you say? What did you say on the mic anything? Oh you dare?
All right, so either cheer we're done with professional sports that includes college football. Let's get on to the real thing
Connecticut a lot of upsets happened last night in the
(47:01):
quarterfinals of the state high school championships, but
The commission's son for Southington and our former our guests what about two three weeks ago
Justice Harris's son first Southington come up with a big win last night on a nice night in Manchester
I'm a night. Yeah, not about
(47:22):
Me and Bobby were sharing one of those snuggie things together. We were inside the together. It's so cool last night
I'm very good. No, not the first time won't be the last either. Oh, I got a
Yeah, we froze our butts
But Gatorade, but I think you brought a hand warmer, but apparently did Bob. Yeah, exactly. It's very warm Bobby said at one point
(47:43):
I'm gonna pour hot chocolate down my pants, which I thought was a great idea
The scald marks were terrible didn't work. Yeah, but Bobby happens to be my son's godfather
I know he showed up by himself came to the game. So my son get to start last night
Southington yeah, Ray Williams just as kid five touchdowns
(48:03):
five last night five and
You know, they're out to Staples see what happens on Sunday, but it's gonna be exciting
If you guys can make it on Sunday Staples Westport 1230, what's the line commission? I think Staples is favored by a touchdown, but
We got them we get nice happen I heard it's five and a listen as a dad
I just wanted to get to the finals and then when we get the finals on one of them went
(48:27):
But you know what? It's been really exciting and it's fun. Something doesn't sneak in by anyone. Maybe this is the year
I don't know. They are a little under the radar this year
Their four losses were against that. That's a great schedule. Yeah, Maloney Staples. They lost by touchdowns
Cheshire Cheshire was really good. They lost last night, but
Yeah, I'm really excited for Sunday and no sports. You should be congratulations and good luck to your son
(48:53):
You know, it's funny. I was asking some guys who went to the
Sons with the state finals on baseball
Football is a different feeling because it's such a team game
So I'm a little bit more relaxed and I can embrace the team concept of it
But it's still nerve-racking. Of course still you want your kid to get there and you know
Bobby and I were lucky enough to be on the team with the finals and lost and
(49:13):
Still to this day. I say we went to the finals
You know what I mean? So this many years later we won it. We won it. You can never take that away
We both won three for three, but yeah, I thought you missed first base or was that a different game?
No, it was a different game. It was three different games. They hit a bomb my sophomore year. Most people don't do that, but that happened
Yeah, but yeah, obviously I'm looking forward to Sunday and
(49:35):
It's good. High school football is great. I really I've got the ball. It's a culture. It's unbelievable
It's not like any other sport because it's such a team game. Mm-hmm next man up mentality and for my son
That's what happened. You know, you got in sure
Starting so we'll see what happens and for all you athletes out there waiting to get your turn
Commish we talked about this game one opening night Bobby's there with me and my son comes off the field at the end the game
(49:59):
He played just on the extra points and he was almost in tears
He says, you know, I'm working too hard for this I said well, you got to work harder
He goes, I don't know if I can work harder
I said people are gonna get hurt right attrition. Yeah, people are gonna hurt
keep
Presenting yourself show you the coaches you're into the game pump your teammates up and this is what happens
You know take every rep like it's the last one and it's what they care about themselves. It's very fun
(50:23):
I have to say as a dad
To get to this point is more than I ever could expect from the kids
you know, you don't know what's gonna happen, but to see it happen and see him win and seem be happy and and
Have another game the end they grew up together playing football. Yeah, I mean always on the same team, right?
Exactly. That's neat. They're all the parents and everything cool. Yeah, it's very it's the culture is unbelievable
(50:45):
Something like that's for sure
So let's go Knights on Sunday and coming from a small town and rude 8th, Thomas and we are football team doing well undefeated
We've never lost
Not many towns can say that
Can I actually I want to chime in that something here when I was covering sports I?
Would a lot of the teams I covered being a married and were like L
(51:08):
Double L and all the time guys would say but it's only class s
And that used to drive me crazy because apples to apples. You know, I mean it's these teams are competing against their like teams
You know what I mean? So I I give Bobby obviously we all get Bobby respect
But now to win those state championships and to to compete against your own. It's a big deal
(51:29):
I mean, there's no difference to me between an L and S because you're competing apples apples
Tell the Ansonia football players. There's a difference. I was just gonna say that well, it's only lost
I'm going to miss your own field. They lost to Nogatuck Nogatuck lost their first round game
Yeah, and then Ansonia is gonna win the whole thing for what the 47th time in the history of the school at class s
(51:51):
But they're gonna meet Bloomfield and that winner can take on whoever and you never know what happens right game
But they're gonna play Bloomfield. There's some news about a team like Bobby had words
There's generational players coming in. I think it's only a place Cromwell for the right to play Bloomfield. That's what I mean. Yep. I got you
We get back to Bobby here
(52:13):
His favorite subject
But I'm just saying like it takes these are special teams
I've seen I'm seeing how special it is to get to where they're getting right now
It's all it's cool high school sports can be really awesome. It's very exciting
All right. So who'd you rather you only get one word association tonight. We're debuting
(52:35):
Crocs favorite the number game
the numbers
Okay, I knew that angry Jay would miss out on this so I sent them the numbers
We're sticking with one through ten tonight, okay
It could be any sport you could go with a go or just a guy on your radar
(52:55):
Angry Jay, you know took a lot of my thunder. So I'm gonna try to go opposite him
So we do we not want to do what everyone else is doing or first you could okay

Oscar Robinson's number one terrible, but I had Billy Martin. I'm going penny
Penny was like right at the right time. Yeah, because one and two. Are you sure about Oscar Robinson?
I'm pretty sure there was a time where one and two weren't allowed in basketball because
(53:44):
The rule makers were so ahead of their time
They thought when they went one or two shots that it would be confusing so and definitely in high school
We couldn't order numbers one and one and two until probably
mid
2000 like 2005 ish

(59:04):
Lottie can you tell the audience why Captain Puff is called Captain Puff? You guys never heard these stories
Captain puff mr. Badal so Captain puff was a brawler. He was a fighter and he liked to have his
adult beverages
So he would go to a club or go to a bar and he would start some trouble
And he wasn't afraid to swing but he was also smart enough to know when it was time to go
(59:28):
So he would start all these issues and then Ponello would jump in and Munson would jump in and this guy would jump in this guy
Nettles nowhere to be found gone
Captain puff great nickname
That was his teammates nickname for him because that's that's what he was notorious for
We had a friend in college that did the same thing. Yeah, we call them Hoffa
Hoffa is no one's name
(59:49):
I just saw something where Captain puff dent one of his fingers disappeared to and rivers were at a function together down in Florida
You know, yeah some type of fun fundraiser. We didn't know fundraiser for Mickey probably
But it was dent and Nettles and I never got a phone call
Ridiculous, I mean we gave him an hour. Should we call him?

I got another great number nine Gordie Howell. Oh
