Speaker 1 (00:16):
welcome back to anonymous podcast here once
again with david and tyler.
My name is first, you got it,you got it again.
I did that just for you, thank.
So last week we had our firstever special guest and he
thought special was just meantfor him Yep, but in reality
special is really meant for ourguest tonight.
Yeah, because we've talkedabout him a million times at

(00:39):
this point but nobody's reallygotten to talk to the man,
really get to know him a littlebit.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
So they get to see his words on social media, but
they don't actually get hisvoice.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
And for Bobby, he gets to see who I should not bet
for because we had some wrongones.
But so tonight we have oureditor, social media manager all
around does everything in thebackground for us, brian on the
podcast with us.

Speaker 4 (01:11):
Thank you all for having me on.
It's good to be on.
Yeah, you're 100% correct withthe pics on Facebook.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
I guess it was Bobby.
Do you just want to go aheadand apologize to Bobby now?

Speaker 4 (01:24):
Yes, I'm sorry, bobby .
He asked me the first firstweek or so of me um, you know,
making picks, who I picked?
I think every pick that I madelost.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
I I do believe that first week, every single one
that you're like, I'm pickingthis, yes, it was wrong.
Yeah, if this was live.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Bobby might pull in here in a minute so it's a good
thing.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well, he was already here once today.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
That doesn't mean anything for Bobby?

Speaker 1 (01:47):
No, but he had the tournament today and then he
came out here right after and Iwas like.
That's never a good sign.
You play around and you got togo the range after.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Never a good sign he didn't play good.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
But, as always, get this out of the way.
The stink eye from David,proudly sponsored by for you, I
see it, I know it, cause I kindof skipped over it to introduce
Brian, cause Brian was moreimportant in this instance, I
agree, so I wanted to get intothat.
Um, so you, I mean you at leastget to be on once.
I mean we may say, yeah, he'snever coming back, but you at

(02:16):

We've said this a few times andit's still in the works and
it's really just we're slackinga little bit.
The online store is on its way.
We've got a few things tofinish up with it.
Get it up and rolling.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
It's kind of in the works.
Yeah, it's been in the works.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
It's just a lot to get it really finalized and

be, I think.
But if you're in the need ofsomething, come check out the

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Okay, so I'm glad you got that away, but I just want
to go to this because we'vealready talked about it.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
We have.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
It's just for Will.
Okay, brian has never watchedStar Wars either, so Will.
It's not just me.
Okay, and we talked about it.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
So what you're saying is everyone from Kentucky is
weird?

Speaker 3 (03:25):
No Because.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Brian's from.
There too, that doesn't matter.
We're getting a really smallsample size.
If this was like Brian's from Idon't know Montana, I don't
know why that popped into myhead Montana.
Maybe it would be different.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
But you and Will are from North Carolina, so maybe
it's North Carolina.
That's weird.
So let's say that to Brian.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
I would honestly like to see what the population is
like.
Who has not Like never, Becausethat's a different thing.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Let's let Brian tell about Star Wars.
Let's hear it.
Brian Brian's synopsis of StarWars.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
A man that's never seen.
It tells you about Star.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
Wars.
That's the point.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
I've never seen Star Wars.
There's never been a time thatI've had a desire to watch Star
Wars, so I'm kind of on David'sside with this.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Thank you, For once I got somebody.

Speaker 4 (04:16):
You know and you all talked about on the podcast last
week, I think it was that?
Maybe it's an age difference.
I'm 45 years old 45 years young.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
And growing.
Whenever I was growing up, starWars was kind of for dorky
people.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
It was.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
That's what it was known as, not that I think I'm
better than anybody.
That's what I'm hearing.
I'm hearing that.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
I'm hearing that.
I'm hearing that Tyler and I'mbetter than anybody.
I'm hearing that I'm hearingthat.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
I'm hearing that Tyler and Will are dorks.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Well, but here's the thing.
I'm not claiming that, I'm not.
I mean, if you can admit it, Iwill say this I am not as big of
a dork as Will.
Will is much, much deeper intoit than I am.
I.
I'm more of the mainstream starwars stuff I don't really get in
deep to the back backside ofthings, where it's, you know,

(05:14):
knowing about the history ofsomeone that was on screen for
five seconds like I, I don'tknow that kind of stuff he, he
most likely does, so that thatis different.
Now, we were talking about thisa little bit before we
officially started recording,kind of like we always do.
The question came up of whenthe original Star Wars trilogy
came out 77 was the first one,80 for the second, 83 for the

(05:40):
third one, which is 4, 5, and 6,actually.
Right, wait, 4, 5, and 6 wasbefore 4, 5, and 6 were
officially the first threemovies.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
See what I'm talking about, Brian.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
When Star Wars was created, the plan was that was
the only three, and then thepopularity of it came back in.
Let's see, 1999 was the episodeone, so I mean it was gone for
16 years.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
I sometimes think am I missing something?
Like should I go back and watchseason C if I get into it?

Speaker 2 (06:15):
No you shouldn't, no, okay.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
At this point though I feel like you just got to be
like no, I'm this late in life,I'm not going back Like what's
the point?

Speaker 4 (06:24):
Just for the purpose of it right, yeah, almost at
this point, yeah but I do, likeI I said earlier, I do wonder if
things changed with thatrelease in 99.
Uh, because it did become it,to me at least.
It was a big deal back then.
I remember in 99, whenever thatthat came out, yeah, I mean it
was.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, that was a huge push because the first one,
like I said, in 16 years.
But then it was kind ofsomething most, even most fans
of star wars didn't know, unlessyou were really deep, that like
, oh, hey, they're, they'redoing more of those, right.
It kind of just popped up, waslike hey, here you go, here's
new star wars, first time in areally long time.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
And yeah, it came out of nowhere, like I couldn't
tell you how many there are.
But for me and I kind ofmentioned last week that goes
into Harry Potter, lord of rings, all that stuff.
I just never got interested init.
But this I mean, it's the samecomment as last week.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Like you are not a sci-fi, so that in all of those
you're talking wizards andwitchcraft and fantasy, and you
know that if that doesn't appealto you, which is a lot of
people like, said brad brad'sthat way he doesn't have any
interest in that.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
That's to me.
It's because it's nerdy, likethat's seriously what it goes
back to for me.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
But then all of those things, though you're also
talking about harry potter iswhat eight, nine movies?
I don't know that many books,star wars is nine movies with
more to come?

Speaker 3 (07:50):
did you watch any of those brian like?
Did you ever feel the need to,or?

Speaker 4 (07:53):
no, um harry potter.
I had a friend um me and mywife actually has a few friends,
big harry potter fans, all intoit, and I guess it's here.
Two or three months ago, youknow, I asked my oldest daughter
.
I said should we start those,because people really like some?

Speaker 1 (08:12):
you know that there are some people that are.
Do you know that?

Speaker 4 (08:15):
yeah, she's like you know, my daughter's like no, so
so we've, we've never watched soI've seen, I've seen every
harry potter movie.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Really never read any of the books, yeah they're okay
like that's not.
That's not something that I'mlike oh, that's my right like
I'm.
I don't really care for themagic side of things, I guess
that, that doesn't appeal to meas much.
Um, but again, talking beforethe podcast, the one thing brian
did say he liked was lord ofthe rings, excuse me, not lord
of the.
You said that and I've got tothink about the.
I guess nine movies there areof that series as well now.

(08:48):
So Game of Thrones.
So what about that?
Did you like Not liking some ofthe other stuff, because that
kind of goes along the same path?

Speaker 3 (09:02):
Okay, before you get into that, did you have the same
feeling about that before youwatched it, Like I don't have no
interest in this because it'slike Star Wars?

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Honestly, yeah, I did .
Okay, Like you know, wheneverGame of Thrones was really big.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
You didn't watch it as it was coming out.
You watched it well after thefilm.
Yeah, I just watched.
Game of Thrones here four orfive months ago here four or
five months ago, oh okay, soyeah, it's been over a while,
like they've already released.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Yeah, so you another you thought you was never gonna
watch it already released theprequel.
At that point I'm like what?

Speaker 4 (09:30):
are you talking about ?
There's dragons in this?

Speaker 1 (09:31):
thing I'm not.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
I'm not watching this but then I watched it and, yeah
, I liked it.
So I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
Uh, no, I'm not gonna watch star wars I was gonna say
maybe, no, no, I probably won't, I can't, I just can't bring
myself to it.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
No, I probably won't either, but Game of Thrones, I
did enjoy that.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
I mean, is it possible that it's because it
was really more of a TV showthan a movie?
Could?

Speaker 4 (09:54):
be.
Could be Like a series, yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Really a TV show you develop things way more Right.
Yeah, that's probably true, youcan develop characters, you can
develop storylines because youhave so much more time.
A movie, I mean, you're limitedto some of the Star Wars two,
two and a half hours, but a TVshow, you can take an entire
hour episode for one personBecause you're like, yeah, I've
got this many seasons, itdoesn't really matter.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, that's probably true.
Maybe that's something that youliked about it.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Yeah, I'd say that I mean I do like that about some
of the TV shows, especially someof the HBO stuff, because they
go way overboard compared to,you know, like a network TV show
where it's 30 minutes and it'sa really low budget and they're
trying to keep everything simple.
A show like that it's like no,we're basically making movies
every week.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah, you mentioned that with HBO you have all these
different TV things.
Now Everything's online.
Are we eventually just goinggonna put those together and
have cable again?
No you don't think so?

Speaker 1 (10:49):
no, because they all want to charge different price I
, I don't want 15 differentthings, but they're making a
fortune that way, so likenetflix every six months.
They're up in their price Inever watch netflix anymore.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
I watch, we use quite a bit of netflix because you
gotta think like netflix does somany things, too, that other
people don't do like.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
Netflix now has all of these different documentary
series, whether it's aboutserial killers or whether it's
sports stuff, you know.
I mean, there's literallythere's something for everything
now.
And then also now you've gotanother big section of people
mainly speaking of people likemy brother who Raw is now on

(11:31):
Netflix.
It is streamed live on Netflix.
So you've got a big group ofpeople that are moved over for
that kind of stuff, and then allof their movies on top of it,
not even counting the stuff thatjust gets put on Netflix.
They do so much of their ownstuff now.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
I like the YouTube TVs online, but I kind of want
it back like it used to be, withjust everything on one thing,
yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
You can make what your show at work on.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
DirecTV.
Is that what it used to be?

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah, I don't think we ever see that again.
I mean because you've got youthink.
You think about it like you payfor YouTube TV.
Most people also have Netflix.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
Most people also have Amazon Prime and they that's a
whole streaming service thatjoined what ESPN plus, and so
Disney, hulu and ESPN plus.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
So yeah, we've got that, but we also have Netflix.
And then you either havesomebody in your friend group or
family group that's got thepaid version of peacock or that
has the paid version ofparamount or the paid, like they
all are doing their own thingwhat?

Speaker 3 (12:32):
what are we?
So, tyler and I got youtube tv.
What are you watching tv on,bro?

Speaker 4 (12:36):
uh, we got the hulu and we got the live oh so you do
live, okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
No, how is it?
I've never, I've never used it,uh it's okay, I mean uh that
seems reassuring I want toswitch right now, just off of
that I feel like all of them isprobably.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
You know, all has their pros and cons.
You know, there's really noissues that I can think of.
I don't like it.
I know with youtube, tv likesports and stuff, y all have got
like the split screen or stufflike that you don't have
anything like that.
See, I never watch that, thoughReally I don't either.
It's too much, it's toodistracting.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Well, so I say this, I say too distracting, but it
also bothers me that they didn'toptimize it, so when it's split
screen it doesn't take up thosewhole half of the screen, it's
like sections because it's madefor what was the point four, I
think, or something like that,and so when you have less than
four, all the time they'll dolike three and I'm like well
don't put it as three yeah, andthen I also.
What I don't like about it, too, is you can't pick it I can't

(13:34):
pick.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
I want this game in this game correct, they just do
a stream it's like whateverstarts around that time, correct
, okay, correct.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
So I don't.
So you're probably not missinga lot.
Which I'm not using thatfeature anyways, that's not
something I remotely care about.
To be honest with you, Maybeone day I'll be like the guys
that have 10 TVs on the wall andall the games on.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
Well, so that's for me.
If I'm going to watch multiplegames, I just put it on
different screens.
Yeah, pull my computer or pullout my phone and I'll have a
game I care a little bit lessabout, and then the big game on
TV.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
This just hit me.
I have a fellow Kentucky fanhere with me.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
finally, you do have one.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
That's right.
Yeah, so you got to be pleasedtoo, right?
I mean, I was pleased this year.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
I am.
I made it to Sweet 16.
I'm encouraged that we have acoach.
I feel like that can coachdon't.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Don't start, because I already see your.
I can see your gears turningand it's.
I know exactly where some ofthese comments are going to go,
so we're gonna stay in kentucky.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
You know well, calipari got sweet 16.
What do you think about that?

Speaker 4 (14:43):
see, See ya, Look at the team, the athletes that Cal
had, versus what we had.
I feel like this year All ofour guys came from Dayton, they
came from Farley, Dickinson,they came from.
You know we did have a guy oneof our better players came from
Oklahoma, but we did have theathletes that Cal had.

(15:07):
You know, there were severalgames this year that I feel like
if Cal was coaching going intohalftime we would not make no
adjustments coming out ofhalftime.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
He doesn't.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
And with Pope I knew in his staff that he had put
together we would seeadjustments and that second half
we ran out-of-bounds.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
plays for the first time in several years.

Speaker 4 (15:33):
You know Cal Perry's big thing is every out-of-bounds
plays.
He'd just throw it into the bigguy and figure it out.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Hey, just get open Reliable talent yeah it's nice.
So you know I loved Cal thefirst few years.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
First maybe 10, I don't know that when it started
getting close to 10, it startedgetting a little rocky Right.
You know Tyler's a big, youknow proponent or whatever you
want to call it.
That Cal way underachieved forall the talent he had through
there.

Speaker 4 (16:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:02):
Now, I mean, I get the point but, there were
several Final Fours, there was achampionship, but with 50 guys
in the NBA, do you think heunder like?
Should he have done more?

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Yes, I do.
Okay, Like you said those first, I feel like you know we had
the.
You know we thought we wasgoing undefeated there in 2015.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
Should have yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:23):
And 15 should have yeah, and I thought we had it.
That's true.
I thought we we had anotheryear or two after that, but it
pretty much went.
I felt like downhill.
You know we had a few goodgames, I mean few good years
here and there, um, but we'd getto the tournament, and you know

(16:43):
, with a really good team andget put out by.
Kansas State.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Well, it kind of felt like those few years of Duke
where they'd come into thetournament.
Everybody's like man, this Duketeam's going to win it and go
out first or second round.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
It's like all right what was the point of that?
You had to sit and listen toCal say it's all about March,
it's all about March, and thengo lose in the first or second
round.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
But that's why, kind of like your exact statement,
you said well, of course,arkansas made it to the Sweet 16
.
Look at the team they had.
Kentucky made it to the Sweet16 with a much lesser team.
So then I go back to those oldCal days of where he's at
Kentucky with the 30-somethingfirst-round picks and it's like

(17:29):
yeah that feels like it'sdefinitely underperforming,
because he had the talent.
He had way better talent thanhe even had at Arkansas now.
He had way better talent thanmost teams have had across their
history in a 15-year span.
So I think that's where thatreally comes to me is that's
where the underperformance feelslike Not that as a whole.

(17:51):
If you do that in your careerwhat he did yeah, you're a hall
of fame coach, but when you doit with that kind of talent,
it's like all right, we shouldhave seen.
We should just seen more,because ultimately it comes down
to championships like thoseteams should have won more
championships than I agree, andI agree, and they were good
teams, I'm not questioning that.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
How do you feel about Cal now?
So, rick, for a while, rickPitino, everybody hated him,
especially when he was atLouisville.
I feel like something's comingback around a little bit, myself
included.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
They love him now, but he's making St John relevant
, who's not been real up foryears, so that's why people are
going to pull back to him.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
It's because he was pope's coach, right, and you
know everybody likes mark pope,knows he likes rick rutino and
so you're kind of okay, I gottakind of like rip it a little bit
, are you?
Do you hate cow?

Speaker 4 (18:31):
I'll put it like this whenever cow left, uh for
arkansas, I was like you know,I'm not going to worry about
what he does, you know, he'sgone.
He's gone from kentucky now youknow I'm not going to worry
about what another team does,but the first of the year when
arkansas was struggling, I waswatching every game I loved it.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
You know, I was loving every minute we did.
We did that too when, when hewas struggling, like we would
put an arkansas game on yeah,couldn't tell you the last time
watching arkansas basketballyeah, and everybody wanted to
see what would he do.
Yeah yeah, and he struggled,struggled heavily to start and
all the Kentucky fans was.

Speaker 4 (19:05):
see, we told you that's what he's been doing.
But then they kind of turned itaround at the end of the year
and they played well.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Honestly, though, as an outsider looking in, for most
Kentucky fans I feel like it'stoo early.
It's too early to make thatcall, because most people are
going to have more disdain orhate or disgust towards him now
than you may in five years yeahit's just it's recency five
years like in our mind.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
He'll be welcome back now it depends on if he's at
arkansas winning secchampionships or not.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah, I say that could change it too is if it
kind of gets pushed as more of arivalry, because in reality,
like arkansas kentucky, that'snot a rivalry.
No, there's nothing there.
It could become one because ofhim if they stay that relevant.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
I think.
In my opinion, regardless, itwas time for him to go.
I don't care if he goes.
If he won a championship thisyear, it would be time for him
to go yeah.
But you would have had to hearfrom everybody else how crazy
you were.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Having to hear it would suck, but we've both kind
of made the call on both of ourteams.
At one point I was like, hey,it's time for Roy to go.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
After so many years.

Speaker 4 (20:12):
It's just don't start on this coach.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
I mean, listen, I've been seeing it all weekend.
They're like, oh, we got thisbig-time transfer from Arizona.
A center, a seven-footer Cool.
What did Arizona do?
That was the Caleb Love Show,like this kid didn't do anything
.
So, we're super excited aboutall these guys that are, like
you're, bench players fromelsewhere now coming to one of

(20:39):
the Blue Bloods, and we'reexcited about it.
For what?
Like, I don't see anythingthere.
These transfers.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
I can't figure out if they're good or not Used to the
high school kids.
You know there's a lot of hypeand you knew who the top
prospects were, and all that.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
So, like the grad transfers you could make an
assumption on, because it's like, hey, these guys played three
to four years at a big program,have a lot of experience,
they're going to come help yourteam.
That one's a little bit easier.
I mean, you go back a few yearseven for, like Carolina Brady
Manick.
Without him that year they arehorrible, like they would have
had an awful year.
He was a four-year starter atOklahoma and then comes over

(21:20):
here and basically gets himselfinto the NBA purely off of that
one year.
But he was one of thoseeverybody expected to come over
and be a good role player, givesome good minutes, has a ton of
experience and turn into a starbut, like you said, these
transfers, it's like you know.
Carolina just got one fromArizona and one from West
Virginia.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
I don't know much about either of them, you don't
well hey, I don't mean tointerrupt you, but they just
made that a three-point game, bythe way.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
They did right after a technical oh, I didn't say
technical.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
By the way, we're watching Duke-Houston.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
Duke-Houston live in the Final Four.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
It wasn't a game, and now it's a game.
Before we get it, Brian, what'syour picks here?
Did you do a bracket by the?

Speaker 4 (22:02):
way I did do a bracket.
Who'd you pick?
I got Florida, winning it all.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Oh, so you're still there.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
So you're still in, but my final game was Florida
and Alabama.
I think a lot of people couldhave seen that though.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Alabama ran into what ?
I think is the best team in thetournament.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
Yeah, and I feel that way.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
I hate Duke.
I mean, I really do as a TarHeel fan, I do not like them in
any way, shape or form.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
I'm sitting here hoping and praying that somehow
Houston pulls this game outright here and knocks Duke out.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
Yeah, the only reason I keep kind of wanting Duke to
make it at this point is becauseI think Florida Duke makes best
basketball game as a basketballfan.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
Give me a bad game.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Get duke out just as a basketball fan, I I want that
because I like to see the bestpossible game and I think right
now that's the two best teams.
Like I know, we made our pickslast week and I mean honestly I
picked florida.
But auburn, florida both, Ithink, are playing great good
teams could have gone either way.
Right.
It helps for florida when yougot your point guard going for

(23:06):
35 like in college, you go for35 rarely are you losing and you
know, unless you're caleb lovein arizona because you played
duke like that.
That's basically the onlyreason he did the exact same
thing and lost I will say youknow a lot of people, kentucky
fans.

Speaker 4 (23:20):
Well, kentucky fans, their most hated team is Duke.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
Obviously, I don't care for Duke, but I think
Cooper Flag has been very fun towatch this year Will made the
argument this team is not like anormal Duke team, that they're
more fun, they're more skilled.

Speaker 4 (23:38):
Yeah, some of them.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Well, I think the big part of that, though, too, what
he's saying is this isn't theover-the-top arrogant Duke team.
Yes, because typical Duke teamis not really in your face
because they're not like thesuper personality type.
It's just typically an egothing.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
I still feel like Knipple fits their typical guys,
though.
See, that's the one I wasthinking.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
I think so too.
Yeah, Knipple, yeah.
Typical guys though.
See, that's the one I wasthinking, I think so too.
Yeah, Knipple, yeah.
Oh, he is a Duke guy.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
He is that style of which it's hard, though as a
basketball player, I like himbecause he can do everything.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
But he looks like he shouldn't.
You can get him to do anything.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
That's what's weird.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
No, exactly, he looks like a dude that shouldn't be
doing anything other thanmopping the floor when the guys
fall.
But I mean he is.
In my opinion, if Duke wins it,everybody's going to talk about
Cooper Flagg, everybody's goingto talk about how long Shire
did all this.
I think Knipple is the reasonthey win, because he can

(24:41):
literally do everything.
He's just a Swiss Army knifetype guy and I don't think he's
ever going to get the creditlike the other guys, because
he's not as flashy, he's a muchmore old style of play.
Will makes fun of me all thetime because he's like oh, you
just like the simple old stuffand I'm like not necessarily, I
just like a dude that can play.
He can just literally doeverything.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
I'm sitting here here I'm trying to think of things
we've talked about, because Iwant brian's opinion on this
stuff.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
And so now I gotta ask is michael jordan the
greatest?

Speaker 3 (25:10):
yeah, absolutely okay , absolutely I thought we'd get,
so I you know I feel he is.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
I also feel like it's hard to ask brian that, because
of his age, yeah, yeah his agewas the prime but like you you
grew up watching 96 teamsexactly like how how old you 16
and 96, okay, yeah, so that'slike.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
But he watched jordan and now he's seen kobe and he
can say the difference.
You know, for me I was reallyyoung in that, like you said
that, 90, you know whatever.
It was mid 90s.
So maybe I didn't knowbasketball, quite the same.
You know as a kid, but you knowyou're 16 like you saw
basketball.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Yeah, you saw the greatest player well, in reality
, for me, the greatest playerduring my time was actually kobe
like jordan is really morepre-lebron really jordan's more
pre-me, because I was born in in90, so I was as a child when he
was really doing his biggestthing you know into early
teenage years.

(26:10):
But as a basketball fan, goingback to really see his body of
work, seeing everything he did,that that's where that comes to
and I hate the side of leBron'sstats show this.
Lebron's stats show that it iseasier to score in this era than
it ever has been.

(26:31):
But besides all of that, lebronto me ruins his legacy with
every call he's arguing.
Every call is a complaint call.
He's arguing.
Every call is complaint.
He's all.
I mean.
I've seen it probably 10 timesthis week where the interview
that he did, where I don't mindthe contact, I'm a I'm a

(26:53):
football player right and I'mlike, if that was the case,
you're not flailing your headflopping, doing all this stuff
all the time like it is nonsenseno, I heard that comment too,
so I got really quiet, becauseit's a one point game I know
they a nice little tip back uhtip and slam there but 20
seconds left one point game.
It's down to free throws we'llsee what you said.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Will's probably already asleep earlier.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
He might be watching this game no, you're right, I
realized what game, what gamethis was.
He's absolutely awake.
He's probably freaking outright now, most likely, but I
also know like when he comesback and listens what we're
talking about now, he's gonna belivid he is a lebron through
and through.
Lebron is the greatest thereever will be yeah, and I just I
can't get behind that train.

(27:37):
I don't feel like it.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
It fits the same thing no, no, you see the
flopping and and everything hedoes and it's um.
There's just too many anticswith it.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
Yeah, it is.

Speaker 4 (27:46):
It's too over the top it is, and I've seen a clip on.
I guess it's X now Do you callit.
X.
Sorry to interrupt, I don't.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
I still sign Twitter.
I can't help it.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
I was just trying to be professional for the podcast.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
You're in the wrong place.
Listen, you're in the wrongplace, if you like, you got to
be that we're all the time.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Twitter.
It was a clip and I don't knowif this was recent.
I don't know when this happened, I didn't really look into it,
but it was just.
He ran into a player and youcan see it wasn't much contact
and he, like, hits the floor andhe's like banging on the floor.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Oh, that's from the other night, is it night, is it?
I didn't know if it's recent ornot.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
yeah they was playing the warriors, yeah, and it's
like, yeah, he goes in therecompletely out of control.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Yeah, runs into the guy and then, like, falls over
like he died, but he's afootball player.
Yeah, yeah, he likes, or everytime for some reason here lately
.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
His new thing is every time he drives he somehow
gets hit in the face yeah, helike grabs his head and he's
like wanting them to go.
Look it and it's like you wereby yourself.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
It's halftime.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Dude.
What are you even on the floorfor?

Speaker 3 (28:49):
It's just ridiculous stuff.
They called it on flag a foulhere, by the way.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
That's a questionable call in my opinion.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
You know what, maybe I don't care.
I want Duke to lose okay.
Just leave it alone.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Gosh, that free throw form is bad hey it went in.
That's all that well, butthat's the thing with lefties.
Lefty shooters are either themost pure no like perfect
shooters or it is ugly what, andthat was ugly, you talked about
x.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
What age group doesn't know twitter and they
just call it x?
Is there an age group yet, orare they still?

Speaker 4 (29:21):
I don't think I don't know.
No, I don't think so, becausethat's pretty.
I think so Because that'spretty.
I think we all call it A coupleyears, two or three years.
Yeah, I think so, but at somepoint it's too new.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
There's going to be an age group where they don't
know it was ever Twitter.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
Right yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
I don't know Well.

Speaker 4 (29:45):
But I an old thing now.
Like those do exist, like canwe go find our old pages?
Somebody said you could here afew years ago and I went and
looked for mine.
I could not find mine.
I probably didn't want to findit but who knows?
What would have been on thatexactly got your top five
friends or top eight friends,whatever it was see I never did
the myspace thing yeah, like Idid it for a while when I met
amanda, myspace was still a bigthing, kind of.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
I mean, facebook was already starting to take over
the stuff there.
And she's like oh, you've gotto make a MySpace.
I'm like it's too late in thegame for that.
And then you get into it andI'm like there's way too much
stuff.
I mean, they're talking aboutall these different things you
can add to your page and thisI'm like that's too, much for me
.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
I never did social media like that.
Now there's so much stuff toeverything.
That was probably basic.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
Speaking of Facebook, like whenever your memories
come up on Facebook, and I lookat those first initial posts
that I made, like when Facebookfirst started or whenever I
first got.
Facebook.
I'm like who is that person?

Speaker 1 (30:45):
That is the weirdest stuff, but to me, like even the
stuff that I go back and look at, I got a facebook in high
school right and I look at itnow.
I'm like I don't even rememberthat part of life like that.
Doesn't feel like it actuallyhappened me too, because it's
it's you start thinking pre kids, pre-marriage yeah, there's not
a whole lot of that, that juststays with you yeah I mean once
you get a family.
It's just, that's all you Ithink it's.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
They've changed the way you um like the buttons and
the graphics and everything butthe way we used to word stuff
that.

Speaker 4 (31:12):
That's what my thing is the way I worded stuff.
I'm like that's odd.
Yeah, who speaks?

Speaker 3 (31:17):
like that right yeah there was, if I remember right,
facebook at one point would saylike david, is that's when you
would like complete the sentence?
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (31:24):
point would say like David, is that's what it was,
and you would complete thesentence.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
And it was just like wait.
What is that?

Speaker 1 (31:29):
But there's that period of time where you
wouldn't talk to people butyou'd poke them.
Oh, I forgot about poking Likepoking someone.

Speaker 4 (31:36):
And I'm like I don't remember when.
No, that's not been around fora long time Somebody messaged me
and my wife is in a groupmessage.
Somebody messaged us the otherday and said what does this mean
when somebody's poking us?
And so it is still a thing, butwhat I've noticed is it's
mostly older people that don'tknow what they're doing that

(31:58):
ends up doing the pokes.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
So they accidentally hit it.
Is that what it?

Speaker 4 (32:01):
is yeah, I don't know what it is, but I got a message
from a person the other daythat said so-and-so keeps poking
me on here, and I said I thinkit's just somebody that don't
know what they're doing onFacebook.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
Who thought that was a good idea.
Let's put a poke button on hereso we can just poke it.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Like I don't think I've ever would come up kind of
like the homepage of it and itis so different than what you
have now, because you open it upnow and it's tabs everywhere,
marketplace this, everybody'sstuff, and it's like before you
almost had to go actually clickto see that stuff.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
My Facebook is full of stuff that I am not following
or anything.
Oh, you just talk about it.
Everything now feels like ads.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
So every time I go to Facebook there's one or two
reasons.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
I go to.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Facebook, because we all mindlessly scroll, because
it just happens, or Marketplace.
I mean, obviously you've got togo to Marketplace two or three
times a day.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
You never know what's going to get posted.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
It's the new Craigslist.
Oh, 100% stuff, it's justcraigslist, though, was always
poorly done, like the ad feltlike it had to go through some
server server in india itprobably did and it's like and
then it would pop up.
There'd be all these like weird, like they put basically the

(33:18):
data of how it posts in your ad.

Speaker 3 (33:21):
It just made no sense anytime I see something I might
want to buy or a message insomebody they're going to buy
something, whatever, I alwaysclick on the thing and look at
their profile.
Right.
I can't imagine I went to meetstrangers from craigslist.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
I didn't see what they looked like, I didn't know
anything about their life,randomly just show up somebody's
house like yeah, what's youraddress now it's like we can't
show our yard because we'reafraid somebody's going to find
us on Google Maps.
Yeah, before it's just likeyeah, come get it.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
I bought a canoe once and I don't remember why I had
this canoe I don't know if itgot a good deal or something and
I put it on Craigslist to sellit.
And this guy showed up fromlike an hour away and he wanted
to buy a canoe because someAmish guy I think it was Amish
guy or somebody had told himthat that was the best thing for
your marriage was for you andyour wife to get on a canoe and
go down the river and stufftogether.

(34:09):
And so this random dude showsup at my house and that's why he
wanted to buy this canoe for meAt what point in time are you
so far gone in your marriagethat you're taking advice from
an Amish.
No, I think they were newlywed.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Maybe it wasn't Amish , but it was some like old time
and this is no hate on the Amish, because I'm like the Amish are
intriguing, but they don't havethe same things in their lives
that they're constantly dealingwith we used to go to Amish
sales and was around the Amish,I can remember y'all used to do
that stuff all the time.

Speaker 4 (34:34):
Yeah, have you ever been?
Wow, that feels like an upset.
It is an upset.

Speaker 3 (34:45):
Duke goes down, I can sleep tonight.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Yep, wow, I do feel like this is a weird final
though.

Speaker 4 (34:52):
That will be.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
Florida-Houston just feels like out of left field.
Do what?

Speaker 3 (34:56):
Does that open it up for Florida?
Do you feel like they got it?
Oh, I feel so.
Yeah, I think so too.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Well, I'll say this yeah, well I'll say this
houston's super athletic, likethat's a super athletic team.
I think that's what put them inthis game to beat duke.
But yeah, to me, the length andjust explosiveness of florida,
I'd be surprised for houston tobeat them it's gonna come back
to that foul on flag.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
Yeah, that's all.
Everybody's gonna talk about.

Speaker 4 (35:22):
I missed it.
I didn't, I didn't.
I know you all said it was weak, so it's just, it's one of
those.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
I feel like we see that a lot.
Yeah, in reality, if theyreally go back and look at it,
the guy's got both arms on him,kind of hooking him flag, kind
of reaches through to tip it tohimself, like it's.
You know, it's one of those I'mlike over the back right.
Is that what it was?
Yeah, I mean exactly what theycall so it's.
It's just one of those.
To me it it feels like an oddtime to call it.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Yeah, if it's foul, you call it.
I don't care what time it is.
I hated that in Maryland gameor something I agree.
I agree that if it's foul.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
it's foul, it's just.
That's not the way theytypically do it.
No Like, if that's how wealways call things.
Fouls are fouls are fouls Cool.
Call it that way.
No, but we swallow our whistlesfor 20 minutes at a time
because we want the game to getback close, or we want something
to happen, or we can't changethe outcome.
Then it's like now.

(36:18):
When you do, it feels like man,you just changed the outcome.
But if you're calling it likethat all the time, we'd say yeah
, they made a call.

Speaker 4 (36:25):
I don't think you think twice about it.
That's something you all havesaid before and I agree 100.
The problem with officiating isa consistency, I think I don't
think there is any.

Speaker 1 (36:34):
There's a big part of it there's none.

Speaker 4 (36:36):
You know, like you said you're going to call.
You know, type the game, typeone part of the game and then
loose uh it feels very weird,it's.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
It's the same officials, both halves, yeah,
but you're calling it completelydifferent.

Speaker 4 (36:47):
It's like how am I supposed to know how to play
they?

Speaker 1 (36:49):
do Like the first half.
We're, you know, putting padson and squaring up, and then
this half.
I looked at him wrong and got afoul Like I don't know how to
play that?

Speaker 3 (36:58):
What is causing that?
Why would they do that?
And you know, I want to sayyou're not trying to keep that
game exciting.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
And me and you have had this conversation before.

Speaker 3 (37:16):
Oh my God, I just realized I just won a bet.
Oh, you did, holy smokes.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
You did actually.

Speaker 3 (37:21):
I haven't won in a while.
That's good.

Speaker 1 (37:24):
But think about it.
You're saying yeah, but there'sstill blowouts.
And then you go look at Vegasand they were within percentage
points, right?

Speaker 3 (37:31):
Vegas, Like I don't get it.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
I don't get it.
They are very rarely and I meanvery rarely off by much and I
don't know how.
Yeah, the amount of type, theamount of sports, the amount of
games, both college,professional, everything, and
they are like down to a T.
Have you ever?
And that's?
Not something that I feel likeis a true science, but they've
got it down to it.

Speaker 3 (37:55):
Any of these new draft books.
You do any of that at all.

Speaker 4 (37:59):
Yeah, which is DraftKings?

Speaker 3 (38:02):
Yeah that's the one.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
I've been using.
But are you any good?

Speaker 1 (38:05):
No, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (38:07):
Just ask, bobby.
I was going to say say if youare bobby's mad, yeah no, I mean
there's been a few times um,like whenever it first came to
kentucky.
Uh, you know, you sign up, theygive you so many you know free
bets or whatever, uh, and sousing their money I've done
pretty well, but I I'm the typeof person that I'm afraid if I

(38:29):
did it too much it'd become aproblem, so I don't.
There was one game last week.
It was like a whatever it'scalled an eight-leg parlay or
something like that.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
Oh God, I hate parlays and I just went See, I
like them.
That made me nervous.
I like them.
There's too many things thatcan go wrong.

Speaker 4 (38:46):
That's the thing.
If I had, I got seven out ofthe eight and I just needed like
it was the Alabama game.
Actually they're Nelson.
I think it's Nelson.
Yeah, big, yeah, big guy.
He had to get like six reboundsor something like that, and he
got like two or something stupid, and that was what knocked me
out.

Speaker 1 (39:05):
You're like this guy's had six rebounds since
high school.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
Yeah, when you look at this parlay you're like, oh,
there's no way exactly but howdid they know six?

Speaker 1 (39:12):
because they put numbers on the stuff that you're
like, yeah that's, that's aneasy one yeah, and then they end
up right it's like okay, buteven something like that, like
rebounds, is not something youcan yeah just say well, if this
happens, this will happen, yeahit's random where that ball goes
right like's no controllingthat, and yet they can get it

(39:32):
that correct, and I don'tunderstand that when the parlays
give you really good odds, itdrives me crazy trying to keep
up with it.
I don't do any of the sportsbetting.
I just never have gotten into itand I almost feel like I'm kind
of like what you just said If Istarted to do a little bit good
it didn't be like what Davidsaid.

(39:54):
Man, I could put $100 on that.
Look how much I would have won.
Oh, yeah, so I'm like I don'teven want to get myself into
that situation, where then I'vegot to think about could I do
that?
I don't ever want it to becomeone of those like well,

(40:15):
christmas is coming up, let mego do a couple bets see if we
can.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
No, you're going to lose your Christmas money
there's so many people that getinto that and I'm not saying I
for sure would I just don, but Ithink it's fun.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
so with par, with parlays obviously, like I said,
eight leg, what was?
How much was your bet you hadto put in for that?
It was like five dollars.
It was gonna be quite a bit Iwould say what was your payout?
I can't even remember it was itwas have you had one that
you've seen?

Speaker 1 (40:43):
probably a lot.
There's a few hundred dollars,yeah okay, so yeah, for five
bucks turn around into three,four hundred dollars like that
that's a huge payout what's thething?

Speaker 3 (40:50):
you only have to hit one and, yeah, a few hundred
right to break even, and I andI've hit, I, I.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
I do it a lot in, or not a lot um, but whenever I
would do it it was in collegefootball and I would do a lot of
college football.
I love betting college footballum like player props,
especially with kentucky, like ateam I follow pretty well so
you can bet on kentucky gamesyou're okay with yeah, yeah, I,
I can't figure out.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
No, what I don't know .

Speaker 4 (41:16):
It's just weird because I think my fandom gets
in the way yeah and I think,okay, yeah, kentucky's gonna win
or they're gonna get this, andI bet and I lose yeah and if I
bet against them, then I feelbad because I'm rooting against
them in a way and and that maybe, and whenever I do bet it is
you like player props, likeso-and-so, to get you know 50
yards rushing or something likethat.

(41:36):
Hang on Like Kentucky football.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
You may have met five yards rushing.

Speaker 4 (41:41):
That was a stretch saying 50.
We've had a few good runningbacks the last few years.
Yeah, not last year.
Yeah, we did do.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
So, speaking of college football, obviously both
of us big ohio state fans,kentucky is the go-to.
Like that's your 100, likethat's your team, or do you have
somebody else that you?
No, it would probably bekentucky um okay, so you, you
take fall off, is what you'resaying?

Speaker 4 (42:01):
yeah, yeah yeah, yeah , um, not they started a little
bit.

Speaker 1 (42:06):
They've had a few good years um the biggest
problem they're in a conferencethat they can't win.

Speaker 4 (42:11):
Can't yep.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
They would have to do so much more to make that a
thing I've said this before Igrew up an Ohio State Buckeye
fan.

Speaker 3 (42:18):
And then I moved to Kentucky as a young kid and kind
of got into the Kentucky thingand so they kind of became my
second team because I alreadyhad like a first love, Right.
But I always have this thing ifthey played each other, how
would I feel?
Right yeah, and it's toughbecause, like Ohio State's my
team and they win championshipsso I want to win.
But if Kentucky was to everbeat Ohio State, that would be

(42:40):
like a game changer.
Yeah, so I don't know how I'dever look at that.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (42:44):
I don't know.
I don't know.
You probably won't have toworry about it.
The thing, is.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
I don't feel like that's a game changer, it's just
like that's a one-off, like yougot to do it multiple years in
a row for me to be like heythey've actually done it Because
it just doesn't feel the same.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
Maybe they're going to do it.

Speaker 1 (43:01):
Because I mean, at any given point, like we've seen
upsets happen, like a one-offhappens literally every year In
some way shape or form Betweenbasketball football.
You know all the things.
So, yeah, you know, forKentucky to somehow upset, you
know the Dave and Goliathmatchup, you know David wins

(43:22):
again, that just feels like hey,they did it this year, yeah, do
it four more times, do it everyyear.
No, I agree with you, but thatme is just kind of where that
feels because again, sorry Vandy, sorry Kentucky.
Welcome to basketball seasonfor Kentucky, welcome to
baseball season for Vandy.
That's what they're looking to,because that's just not a sport

(43:43):
.
I feel like they're ever goingto run that conference.

Speaker 4 (43:46):
It's just too strong and I do feel like and, david,
you may agree with me that theKentucky football team and I
know David has said for severalyears that he didn't think Mark
Stoops was a great coach.
Am I right about that?

Speaker 2 (44:03):
He has his moments.

Speaker 3 (44:04):
I think he's an all right coach, but I think he's
got to take the next step.
And it's like we just keepdoing the same thing over and,
over and over and over and thenwe take a step back and then we
kind, of you know, I feel likethe last couple years have been
a step back.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
So what's the next step for a team like that?
Because at that point you'relike, okay, y'all won nine games
a few years back.

Speaker 4 (44:25):
We've won ten a couple times, I can't remember.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
But it's like, okay, what's the next step?
Because realistically that'snot a team that should be
competing for SEC championship.

Speaker 3 (44:35):
Brian knows a sports talk radio show from that area
that everybody seems to know andI get really tired of the
comment it's the best in mylifetime.
And it's not just that show.
There's a lot of people in thatage that's a little bit older
than us, and I'm like, okay,fine, but are we ever going to
take the next step, or are weokay with this?

Speaker 4 (44:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
I think they're okay with it.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
Yeah, and they may be .

Speaker 1 (44:58):
I'm not Because for me, my question is like all
right, what's the next step?
Win 10 and then actually win 9.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Like I think you need to do it a few years in a row,
to make it like, okay, this iswhere we are, now, let's do the
next step.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
But it's like what is the next step?
Are you thinking they should becompeting every year for SEC
championship?
Not every year, but you've gotto be there, or like three out
of five or two out of five.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
When have they ever been to SEC championship?
They've not, but to me that's ateam.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
I don't think they ever will it.
That's that type of progressyou could have done that with
Carolina right.

Speaker 3 (45:29):
They've had a lot of down years as Carolina football,
but then they had some yearsthey started.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
Carolina football has a national championship.

Speaker 3 (45:35):
Yeah, I agree, it was way back when?

Speaker 2 (45:38):
but they've won it.

Speaker 1 (45:39):
There's a little bit difference there, because it's
like hey, we've done it once.
For a lot of teams it's like,hey, we've at least been there.
I don't know what Kentucky'sgreatest thing ever is.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
I don't know.
Didn't they do something in the50s?
I can't remember.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
Yeah, I don't know for theirs, I don't know what it
was.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
I think it was before everything was what it is now
Before really the huge growth?

Speaker 1 (45:59):
I guess I don't know, I don't know.
But yes, I mean, for likeCarolina football, we also play
in the ACC.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
Yeah, yeah, like you're talking, maybe three
other good teams can kentucky beacc football and scc basketball
.
Like I'd be okay with it.
You know I might be okay withit all acc at some point
kentucky goes to acc.

Speaker 1 (46:19):
I think they're good in everything could be.
I mean, you think about likebasketball.
They'll be up there with,typically, carolina and duke,
like those three would kind ofgo run it in In football, who
knows, because I mean typically.

Speaker 2 (46:33):
I think you're going to see.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
Clemson, florida State, miami.
That's your big three.
Cops are here, be careful.
Yeah, so that's your big threethere.
And then you know baseball.
It's a crap.
Shoot SEC's stacked andbaseball's a whole different
thing.
But shoot SEC's stacked andbaseball's a whole different

(46:56):
thing.
But I think they're better ineverything by doing that yeah.

Speaker 4 (46:57):
I mean listen the.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
ACC's open.
We've got California teams likeit's.
It's, it's free for all, foreveryone, right?
So yeah, I mean, I do thinkthey would succeed in it and I
and I think in other sports Icould be wrong.

Speaker 4 (47:05):
But some of the other sports Kentucky, they are like
in different conferences, likeso, whether it's soccer or
whatever the secondary stuff.

Speaker 3 (47:13):
Yeah, yeah yeah that they are.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
But yeah, I, I don't think I've ever once looked at a
kentucky soccer game I've heardthat I couldn't tell you, or
honestly even care like I.

Speaker 4 (47:22):
I hate to say that, but it's like I you get into
some of the obscure collegesports.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
Right, it's like all right cool.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
Yeah, I don't know what that means.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
Like no you know we talk a lot of sports but it's
like, hey, we're, we're talkingbaseball, basketball football,
you know we'll we talk aboutsome golf and we we dabble in a
few other things.
It's like that's the extent.
We're not talking lacrosse.
We're not talking you know anyof those things which, speaking
of lacrosse, I don't know ifhe's listening, but shout out to

(47:52):
JD, miss JD, I haven't talkedto him in a while.

Speaker 3 (47:54):
I do too.

Speaker 1 (47:55):
I saw a post or something a day or two ago and I
was like gosh, I need to betalking to him.
Last time I talked to him, hetook over coaching at his water,
his alma mater yeah, d3 school.

Speaker 4 (48:10):
I will say that you all have talked about sports
movies in the past.
I know last week you mentionedagain the Mighty Ducks.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
That's my go-to I love that movie.

Speaker 4 (48:23):
So my daughter, my oldest I told her here a few
years ago she's like looking fora movie.
She was about probably 14 or soat the time.
She's like's a good movie towatch.
I said I remember when I wasyoung there was a movie called
the mighty ducks.
Check it out.
She watched it.
She's became a hockey fan soshe'll watch the anaheim ducks,
which is they're not a good teamno, but I was gonna say I

(48:47):
remember when anaheim did thelogo from the movie when they
switched.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
That was the second movie Right, Because they're at
the Junior Olympics, whatever itis and they come out in the
white jerseys.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
So they just used the movie to get popular.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Honestly, that was one of the greatest marketing
things of the time.
They made that it's like, yeah,we don't even actually use that
logo.
We did it because of the movieand they became so many people's
favorite team.

Speaker 4 (49:12):
Yeah, but they're still working.
Yeah, she loves it.
We went to two hockey games.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
So I'm not a hockey fan.
Never have been.
Hockey games are a blast.

Speaker 4 (49:25):
I'm starting to watch it.
If you go to a hockey game, youwill like it.
Hockey games are a blast yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:31):
Hockey games are a blast.
We used to have a little smallone over here in Asheville,
asheville.
Smoke is what they were Likepurple, they had like a dinosaur
type thing.
So much fun.
That was like a youth groupthing.
We'd go over to hockey gamesover there and just had a blast.
I didn't know what was going on, but it was a lot of fun.
I feel like hockey is growing.

Speaker 4 (49:48):
I think it is, and me and her.
We took a trip here a coupleyears ago to raleigh, went and
watched the ducks play the canes.
That was fun, the most fun we.
The other time we went, we wentto nashville watched the ducks
play the predators okay that wasI loved like during there's two
intermissions during the gamesthey have three periods.

(50:10):
They had like a southern rockband just playing in this.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
That's Nashville.
That's different, I know, butthat's the home of that stuff.

Speaker 4 (50:18):
This is awesome.
I want this in every arena I goto, but it was cool.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
So I've obviously been to very few hockey games
never been to professionalhockey games.
So I feel like that would be awhole lot of fun.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
I've never been to one in person, but I've started
watching it last year at theStanley Cup, yeah, which hockey
is what made me think of this?

Speaker 1 (50:39):
because we actually tried to pull it up on TV the
other day.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
I got to get on a little bit of a soapbox here.
Oh gosh, here we go.

Speaker 1 (50:46):
I am so sick of trying to watch a local team.
It was a Hurricanes.

Speaker 3 (50:51):
It was a Hurricanes game.
I wanted to put it up there wetried a Hurricanes game on.

Speaker 2 (50:55):
We live in North Carolina.

Speaker 1 (50:57):
Not available in your area.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
Where do I go find it ?
Who's it available for?

Speaker 1 (51:02):
Where is it available , because I'm just trying to
watch it.

Speaker 4 (51:04):
We have a good friend at church.
He's a huge Nashville Predatorsfan.
Yeah, and since that's theclosest, to where we're at
Nashville is always blacked out.
If the Ducks are playingNashville, it's blacked out.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
I don't understand that.
I've never looked into that.

Speaker 4 (51:22):
That I don't know.

Speaker 1 (51:23):
I know because a friend of ours he is a huge
Hurricanes fan and he used totalk about that that you
actually had to watch it on adifferent service and I'm like
then why are they even showingthat it's on TV?

Speaker 3 (51:37):
Like it shouldn't even pop up in my area that it's
on there.
Literally.
That channel was wasted becausewhen I clicked on it it said
it's not available.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
You can't even watch that channel.
I couldn't watch anything onthat channel and that was an
ESPN network channel.
How do you not watch that?
I don't understand it don'tmake sense.

Speaker 4 (51:52):
It don't make sense at all.
I know going into motorsports,it is supposed to rain.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
Yeah, it started to sprinkle behind me.
Is that what it was?

Speaker 4 (52:01):
Yeah, I kind of feel the mist Getting into
motorsports like theIndianapolis 500, for so long if
that race did not sell out, thetickets to the race did not
sell out.
It was blacked out inIndianapolis because they was
trying to get people to comewatch the race.

Speaker 3 (52:17):
Don't give me a way to option.

Speaker 4 (52:18):
So I don't know if it has something to do with that,
but I know that was theirreasoning.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
Well, the problem is though, like for us, that's like
five hours.

Speaker 4 (52:29):
Like this isn't, you know, 45 minutes up the road,
the road.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Yeah, we'll just go to it.
Yeah, like this is a a triplike that's a whole whole thing
so, yeah, I mean, I guess I getthat with it with indy.
It's like, all right, don'twatch it, come to it, yeah, like
you're here.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
Okay, fair enough, that's in a big city, don't
block it out 500 miles away, youknow?
Yeah, it's like.

Speaker 1 (52:45):
Yeah, I think it's silly there's a there's a race
in new york and we got itblocked out in california you
should just go.
Just hop in your jet and go.
That's the easiest way.

Speaker 3 (52:54):
So this made me think of one other thing, because I I
need somebody on my side here.
All right, need someone on theside, so bad.
Okay, you've probably heard mypet peeve of the baseball
stadiums I just had a feelingthat's right.
Let's see let's see oh okay, Iheard this I heard this last
week.

Speaker 4 (53:13):
You may not like my response okay, all right, let's.
Let's see if you can make me abeliever in why we should have
this you're talking about thedifferent dimensions and major
dimensions, yeah, okay myself, Iget what you're saying, for
personally, I do like the littlequirks in the different fields,

(53:34):
whether it's the green monsterin Fenway or you know, I think
it was.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
Got a short porch in Houston there on the left yeah.

Speaker 4 (53:43):
Or Petco in San Diego .

Speaker 1 (53:48):
You've got the steel warehouse that is basically part
of left field.

Speaker 4 (53:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:52):
And if you hit it right at that spot?

Speaker 4 (53:53):
it's super short.

Speaker 1 (53:54):
Everywhere else is huge, right.

Speaker 4 (53:56):
Yeah, so I don't know .
I have to disagree with you onthat, david.
I like the weird things.

Speaker 3 (54:04):
I like the uniqueness .

Speaker 4 (54:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (54:06):
But I feel like we can make the uniqueness like
around the field, and make itfeel the same.
And one like we can make theuniqueness like around the field
to make it feel the same.
And one thing too, becausethat's such a stat driven sport
like every like.

Speaker 4 (54:20):
If you go look at all history, it's all about the
stats and home runs and I just Iwant to be equal, I want to
know that it was equal, right?
Yeah, I mean, I guess everybodyhas opportunity to.

Speaker 1 (54:26):
There's never there's never equal, there there's
there's a steroid.
There's never like that whichthat, to me, I'm like all right,
if it was a steroid era, that'swhat you were, at this point
calling it.
Why are we keeping these guysout of the hall of fame?
yeah, when everybody was doingit.
It's not like these.
Like four or five guys were theones doing it.

(54:46):
Like I was never a huge barrybonds fan yeah, but I also I'm
not a barry bonds hater.
I, to me, recognize barry bondsis the greatest hitter ever.
I don't care how many steroidsyou take, if you can't swing
well, see the ball well, do allthose things well, you're not
getting those hits you're notgetting those home runs so that

(55:07):
run him in what mc McGuire head?

Speaker 3 (55:09):
No, that was.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
McGuire and Sosa.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
That was a blast that made non-baseball fans watch
baseball, just because it wassomething interesting.

Speaker 4 (55:19):
I got a funny story about McGuire and Sosa.
So you know 1988, I was reallyinto baseball.
I think that was the year,maybe, that the Dodgers beat the
Athletics.
Mark McGuire played for theAthletics.
He was the A's then.
Yeah, yeah, he was my favoriteplayer growing up.

Speaker 2 (55:42):
Whenever I was younger, baseball.
This was little McGuire.

Speaker 1 (55:45):
He's a little fella.
This was before steroids.
Yeah, he's a little guy.

Speaker 4 (55:49):
Baseball was my favorite game to play, my
favorite game to watch, so I wasall into it.
Back then fast forward to Ithink it was 98 um sosa mcguire.
Um, you know steroid era, uh,mcguire hitting 500 feet home
runs.
So me and my buddy what feltlike nightly right right so we I

(56:12):
mean, like I said, huge mcguirefan you know that home run race
took the you know country bystorm that summer, yeah, um, so
me and my buddy it's the nightafter mcguire had hit his 62nd
home run, which was the you knowhome run to beat maris's home
run record right me and mybrother, me and my buddy just

(56:34):
happened to be going throughCincinnati that night.
Mcguire was playing inCincinnati.
The next night, you know, gamehad already started.
I tell my friend, I'm likelet's stop, let's watch McGuire.
He's my favorite player.
I can say I seen him the nightafter he broke the record.
We go to park, get parked,we're running into the stadium,

(56:56):
running into the stadium, we geton the concourse and we hear
the announcer Now batting forMark McGuire.
John Mabry, it took him out ofthe game.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
And I'm like, are you kidding me?
Yeah?
We're running into the stadium.
Is it too late for a refund?
Yeah, no kid.

Speaker 4 (57:12):
I looked at my buddy.

Speaker 2 (57:13):
I'm like so did you stay?
John Mabry, did you watch thegame?
Yeah, we stayed.
Oh okay, yeah, we stayed thereat that point you got to?

Speaker 3 (57:19):
yeah, I don't know.
We stayed after all that Imight be like forget it.

Speaker 4 (57:26):
I'm out we funny story just hearing them, john
mabry, I'll never get neverforget that name.

Speaker 3 (57:31):
Went to see mark mcguire and you got john mabry
right, exactly, yeah I, andthat's.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
That is where it starts to come into that like
where I always complain aboutthe load management stuff.
Yeah, oh yeah, I don't care totake off 10 games in a year yeah
don't take off 50 right don'ttake off 25, it's just.
It just feels like it's toomuch right it just feels like
it's a little bit too much forme I agree because that that to

(58:01):
me is a term that only becameprevalent.
What eight?
years ago, yeah like that's nota, that's not something that
people ever even talked aboutthat's a new term.

Speaker 3 (58:13):
Well, we said, though , there's too many games now.
So there are.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
And again, maybe that's one way to fix load
management.
It's a shorter season, youdon't have to anymore.
Now there should be some guysthat are like, oh no, I'm still
going to do it, which that, tome, is stupid.
At that point, but, all right.
So for NBA, because that'swhere I think we see it the most
, what's a good number?
What do you think is a goodnumber?
Because we're at 82 right now.

Speaker 3 (58:35):
I could be real smart , but I don't know.
I want to say 10.
Well, like, realistically, likea professional sport.

Speaker 1 (58:42):
It's obviously going to have more games than college.
What are they at now?

Speaker 3 (58:47):
College problem is NBA final, like the playoff
series once they start, is solong Because there's all these
different five-game series,seven-game series.
I feel like that goes on foralmost as long as the season.
So if you're going to keep that, I'd like to see 50 games, 60
tops.

Speaker 4 (59:07):
Yeah, I think like 60 .

Speaker 3 (59:09):
I think so.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
I think in my mind where I feel comfortable is like
60, 65 yeah but I still thinkof that.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
Let's cut the finals back a little or the the
playoffs is not just not thefine.
I'm fine with seven games, youknow finals well.

Speaker 1 (59:20):
So that other stuff, the, the seven games, you've got
your conference finals, eastern, western, and the championship
yeah, but how many do you haveto get to those?

Speaker 3 (59:32):
Those are five-game series though?
Yeah, but don't you play?
How many different rounds.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
I guess I don't like the addition of these play-in
games where you've got ninethrough 12 still have a chance
to make it.
I'm like, all right, well, youdidn't make it through the whole
season, why are you now gettinga shot?
And some of these are likesub-500 teams, like why are we
even giving you a remote chance?
Like I don't like that To me,like if you can't win at least

(01:00:03):
half your games, you shouldn'teven be here.
Like that's a very weird thingto me.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
Is that like the college bowl games you used to
do?
Well, you had to at least winsix games, or?

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
something.
You got to win six games.

Speaker 3 (01:00:17):
I don't think that's a thing anymore either.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
So no, it still is.
I mean, it's bowl-eligible sixgames.

Speaker 3 (01:00:22):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
You got to win six to be bowl-eligible, but it
doesn't guarantee that you're ina bowl.
No it guarantee that you're ina bowl.
No, it kind of ultimatelydepends on if there are too many
teams that win eight.
Sorry, six.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
So is that what you want to do in the nba and I mean
nfl might could do that too,because they get some of their.

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
Well, I mean so you see some of the nfl.
I mean there for a few years thenfc east, which is cowboys,
eagles, commanders, now you knowredskins, growing up giants
there's a couple of times it waseight and eight made the
playoffs seven and nine andyou're the division leader and
I'm like how, like right, like I, which is a little bit

(01:00:58):
different there because it'sit's a division leader, like the
way that they do their playoffs, but the way that the nba does
the playoffs, where it's liketop eight, all right, why are we
then doing play-ins for ninethrough twelve to possibly get
in and 12 is only one, like 30games all year?

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
yeah like.

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
I just don't get that and that, to me, is a waste of
time and a waste of it's moregames, it's what it's wasting
the fans.
To me, like you're making themwatch more when it's like this
game doesn't matter, I don'tcare what kind of run they go on
, they're not winning I feelthat way about most this season,
regular season in most sports,professional sports, especially
baseball, basketball, nfl so Iget like why they're long, to an

(01:01:34):
extent because it's like allright, this is the top of the
top.
You want to see them more.
They're going to make more moneythat way it should be a little
bit of a grind, but yeah, Ithink I think it's gotten out of
hand.
I mean, 160 something games forbaseball, 82 for the NBA, plus
the potential depending on howthe series go.
Same thing with baseball,depending on how the series go,

(01:01:58):
you're feeling like you'replaying 200.
I mean it's just a lot.
So, yeah, maybe I guess thebest way to look at it for me
who doesn't like load managementshort in the season 15 games.
That's not a crazy number, theywon't because, like you said,
it's money.
Yeah right, like nba especially, there is so much money moving

(01:02:19):
around that league.
It is ridiculous, I mean evento the point.
You know they started doing thewhole ads on the logos and or
ads on the the jerseys.
I, I mean, I don't even knowhow much they're getting for
that, but you know they've gotto be getting a lot, can they?

Speaker 3 (01:02:32):
get a four-year golf on a jersey.

Speaker 1 (01:02:35):
You take it out like a 10th mortgage?
How?

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
awesome would it be to turn on a NASCAR race and
like there's a four-year golfcar.
Those are expensive too though.

Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
Oh, they are Getting those logos like it's crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
Well, I mean even thinking about something like as
small as all the logos in golf,Like some of those logos on
those guys' hats are like 50grand for the year.

Speaker 3 (01:02:54):
That's crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
And I'm like for something you can't even see on
TV, but it has to work right, orthey wouldn't spend the money.
I guess, I guess so.
I mean because it's aninvestment, so I think you got
to look at it, though, too.
Look at NASCAR, too.
Look at nascar.
Look at what most of thoselogos are right compared to,
like golf, most of the stuff ingolf I've never heard of right.

(01:03:17):
But it's also not relevant tome.
When you're talking wealthmanagers, you're talking lawyer
firms, you're talking I don'thave a need for those yeah but
you go to nascar and it's thebarbecue place and the home dep
and beer and like like.

Speaker 3 (01:03:32):
When you're watching sports and NASCAR or whatever,
you don't see commercials forPorsches and things like that,
because, like the people thatbuy those aren't watching that.
Well, we're seeing reality,like you start talking about
like a Porsche.

Speaker 1 (01:03:44):
They don't market through commercials.
Because if you can afford it,you're probably not watching
much TV exactly like thereyou're like.
Bentleyley has never once done.

Speaker 4 (01:03:55):
A commercial like bentley doesn't even put that
their name is out there.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
No, you buy a bentley because you're in an elite
group that you talk about thatlike it's just different.

Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
They're 100.
True, if I'm watching nascarrace and the barbecue comes up,
I'm all for some barbecue oh%they're hitting the right target
there.

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
When you watch it you think about it like it's a
bunch of hardware type stores,it's a bunch of food, alcohol,
it's stuff that's just kind ofeveryday American stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:04:23):
Where golf is not.
Food, alcohol, hardware that'severyday American stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:04:27):
Well, I guess I mean more of what our budget allows.
It's stuff that like we'regoing to shop at those type of
stores, we're not.
We're not shopping it, like Isaid in golf it's.

Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
It's literally like wealth management sometimes I
tell my wife I'm like, becauseI'm doing a lot of odd jobs
around the house, I'm like Ijust wish I had enough money to
pay somebody else to do thisthat's.
I don't need to be like hugewealthy, I just want to pay pay
somebody else to fix it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
I don't need millions , I just need enough that when I
have an issue I call somebodyand they come fix it.
Yeah, that'd be fantastic.

Speaker 3 (01:04:57):
I can't imagine what that'd feel like.

Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
It'd be nice to know, right.

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
Oh, it'd 100% be nice to know.
It's like the meme that alwaysgoes around If I win the lottery
, I'm not going to tell anybody,but there'll be signs.
There'll be signs yeah, that'sone of the signs Like, all my
stuff's going to be fixed andI'm not dirty.

Speaker 3 (01:05:18):
I didn't have to fix any of it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
I'm just here hanging out.

Speaker 3 (01:05:21):
Yeah, do what you want to do, not what you have to
do.

Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
Well, I think that's the goal in life.
Success is freedom.

Speaker 3 (01:05:27):
I don't even care about money anymore.
I guess money brings freedom,but it's all about to an extent.

Speaker 1 (01:05:31):
Yeah, but that's the thing, like for some people.
They don't measure success thatway.
Success is why I paid my bills.
Hey, your chair is squeaking, Iknow, but I can't help it, I'm
sitting.

Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
I can hear it on here it's squeaking over the thing,
so yeah, they, they both startedsqueaking.
I, if somebody's annoyed atthis sound.
It's Tyler.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Blame me, I'll take it.
Squeaking the chair.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
I don't care, he's going to be banned from the
chair from now on.
No, I'll just get some WD outhere.

Speaker 1 (01:06:01):
I'm going to rock, with a steady stream of it just
going constantly.
So you'll hear the spray.
You're not going to hear, right.

Speaker 3 (01:06:08):
I'm glad we got to get Brian on here, so we got to
got to.
You know, make sure there'snothing.
We got to ask him before he'sgot to go or anything.

Speaker 1 (01:06:14):
I know I mean, there's always.
There's always a millionquestions and we'll probably
think of so.

Speaker 3 (01:06:18):
Brian got to be in town for right after well, I
guess about 24 hours or so, itfeels like, or something like
that.
But so we're glad you got to behere yeah, we.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
I think at some point , when we have good questions
that we want to get otheropinions on because we we do
that a lot we're like I wonderwhat these people think about
this we're just gonna startwriting those down yeah because,
like we've done that with will,we're like I wonder what he
thinks of, or like we always aresaying, like I wonder what
brian's thoughts are no andusually we get a text a few days
later.
Yeah, well, here's what I thinkyeah and so I think we just got
to do that.

Speaker 3 (01:06:50):
So then when he shows up, we've got kind of that
running list of I think ifanybody doesn't like the podcast
, just send it to Facebook orInstagram so Brian can respond.
Yeah, I'll play into Brian,I'll do it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:02):
Brian doesn't really have anything to do with topics
or what we talk about but yeah,just blame Brian.

Speaker 4 (01:07:05):
It's okay, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
He said, Because he's going to ignore it like the
rest of us would.
So I mean listen we'll take thepraise, but complaints are
going to just get filed in thecompartment.
We're not going to look atthose Constructive criticism.
We're all for it until we don'tlike it.

Speaker 4 (01:07:24):
That's how that typically works, right, it is.
It is.
So, david, you want to talk alittle NASCAR.

Speaker 3 (01:07:32):
Yes, let's do that Finally.
He's just been quiet over there.

Speaker 1 (01:07:36):
I knew at some point this was going to happen,
because David really wantssomebody to talk NASCAR with.

Speaker 3 (01:07:41):
I even told Will last week.
I was like you've got to getback in NASCAR.

Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
Yeah, because Will is a big NASCAR guy from long ago.

Speaker 3 (01:07:47):
What did he say?
It's not modern NASCAR.
Grandpa or somebody saidthere's only two times he cried.
Uh was like he had something ofdylan hart that got damaged or
something.
And then, when dylan hart died,yeah, yeah that that older
group.

Speaker 1 (01:08:03):
So I'm gonna like go take a nap or make a sandwich or
something grease that chair.
That's a good idea probablyhave time to go to the store buy
some.
I mean heck, I may have time tomake my own grease.

Speaker 2 (01:08:14):
I'm not even sure at this point.

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
But yeah, here's your chance.
You've got a fellow.

Speaker 3 (01:08:20):
I'll ask this question.

Speaker 1 (01:08:21):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:08:21):
This year.
What are we?
I don't know.
Are we 10 races in or somethingnow?

Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
I don't even know, I'm not sure that sounds right.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
How many?

Speaker 4 (01:08:29):
do you think?

Speaker 3 (01:08:29):
you've watched?
Do you watch all the races?
Because some people like meI've said several times I have
to see it all the way through.
It just drives me crazy, right.

Speaker 4 (01:08:40):
No, I mean I don't have to watch the entire thing.
I've heard you say that onprevious podcasts, but I don't
watch nearly as much as I usedto.

Speaker 3 (01:08:51):
Okay, can you just turn on the end and just kind of
see what happens?

Speaker 4 (01:08:54):
Yeah, kind of, and I'm always one of those people
it's a good thing or a bad thing.
I'm always constantly onTwitter, on social media, so I'm
keeping up with it a lot thatway as well.
I follow a few different NASCARreporters lot that way as well.

(01:09:18):
I follow a few different nascarreporters, um, but yeah, I try
to catch you know whenever I amwatching it.
There's a few races throughoutthe year that I will watch the
entire race.

Speaker 3 (01:09:23):
Uh, your restrictor plate races daytona and
talladega I still find thosefascinating a lot of people
don't like you know, it's awreck fest and all the drivers
are.

Speaker 4 (01:09:31):
Oh, I love kind of outspoken.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
I'm not like anybody.
I love them.
I think they're a blast towatch yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (01:09:36):
I would like to go to daytona or talladega one we've
talked about that in the pastyeah we're gonna have to go at
some point yeah, yeah, we haveuh, so we may have to make that
happen because uh I think not amuse should send us there so we
can report back to the podcast Ithink that that'd be great.
Social media I think that'd begreat.

Speaker 3 (01:09:53):
We could just make Tyler go with us.

Speaker 1 (01:09:55):
We could, we could.
I was literally about to chimein to say I'm sick that week.

Speaker 3 (01:10:01):
I don't know what week, but I'm sick that week.
You can still go.
Hang on, where are we talkingabout going?
I say Talladega.

Speaker 4 (01:10:09):
Talladega, you got to talladega, you gotta go with
talladega.
I would think and.

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
But here's the thing we're gonna drive down and we're
gonna listen to eric churcheric church talladega song the
whole way, I'm ignoring thattalk.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
I'm just trying to think about what golf courses
are local there.

Speaker 3 (01:10:21):
No, that's my thought but so right now, right,
because the big thing is drivers, and they're not with.
They're not dylan hart, they'renot even kevin harvicks and
some of those guys who youpulling for right now um, I like
kyle larson.

Speaker 4 (01:10:40):
Uh, I've grew up watching dirt track racing all
my life.
Uh, kyle larson came from thedirt tracks, uh, so I tend to
pull for him um, I agree withyou.

Speaker 3 (01:10:52):
I really like kyle larson too it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:54):
I don't know that.
I've ever even heard that name.

Speaker 3 (01:10:55):
No really he's pretty good, you're missing out he's
pretty good there's a lot ofpeople say he might be the best
driver in a long time.

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
Yeah, because he can drive anything yeah, he, he uh
entered the ender indy 500 lastyear, um, also driving nascar.
He, he'll drive several racesthroughout the year on dirt uh
and wins a lot.
But I like kyle larson, um,even though I like him, he and I
think this is a problem withnascar right now is he don't

(01:11:26):
have much of a personality.
He doesn't.
No, you're right, you talkabout, you know, the dale
earnhardt's in the past, the,the jeffordons, the Tony
Stewarts, kevin Harvick eventhey had personalities.
Most of these NASCAR driversyou don't know much about them.

Speaker 3 (01:11:46):
We said about other sports.
There used to be this hatredtowards your rival.
Yeah, has that gone away inNASCAR too?
Is that part of it?

Speaker 4 (01:11:54):
like they don't hate, they're all buddies I think so,
and I think so, and I thinkthat's caused the fans to not
really like you know, like theyused to.
You know it used to be kylebush.
I did not like kyle bush sameway now it's he's getting to the
end of his.
I think that's kind of goingaway a little bit.

Speaker 3 (01:12:14):
I'm starting to feel sorry for him.
I am too as bad as it's goingright now.

Speaker 4 (01:12:20):
So I don't know.
I feel like NASCAR is missingthat the two guys going head to
head.
You know they don't like eachother and you're just waiting
for them to come up to pass eachother on the track and what's
going to happen?
That stuff don't happen anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:12:36):
much jeff gordon delan art was huge and then del
jr type thing, and I remember umwalmart in in corbin, kentucky
when I was a kid.
When the super center opened,del jr came there yeah, yeah and
I remember going there andgetting him to sign a thing for
me and this is when he's likefirst becoming big and one of
the audience members.

(01:12:56):
Their question was somethinglike do you hate jeff gordon?
Or something like it was like areal and fans wanted him to say
yes, yeah, and I remember hekind of laughed it off but in a
way like yeah, I do no, whetherhe did or not.
It was like the fans knew it'sseparate, yeah, and there is no
that anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:13:12):
I have a question on that then Okay, like you said,
you don't know if it was real, Ithink it was, so could some of
that and not all, because Ithink there was more hatred and
I think it's across every sport.
I don't think just NASCAR.
You go back to the NBA, you goback to NFL, you go back to even
college sports A lot morerivalry type stuff.

(01:13:39):
Yeah, so, using a wrestlingterm is it?

Speaker 3 (01:13:40):
is there some kayfabe to it or are they just kind of
playing up the part instead.
I don't think then there was.

Speaker 1 (01:13:43):
I think not way back, not way back.
I'm not talking about, like youknow, the days of senior, but
junior and gordon.
And as it started to trickleinto more modern, did you start
to maybe just see it?
It was more of an act and notthat they legitimately was with
junior.

Speaker 3 (01:13:58):
Yeah, I do think, maybe past him and more recent
yeah, more recently.

Speaker 4 (01:14:02):
I definitely think, I definitely think.
So it's almost like well here.

Speaker 1 (01:14:05):
Here's my character.
I'm gonna just kind of playinto it, but he might have been
the start of that as he startedgetting older yeah and everybody
was over Dillon Hart.

Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
So we're Dale Earnhardt.
So we got to be Dale Earnhardt.

Speaker 4 (01:14:13):
Jr True, true.

Speaker 3 (01:14:14):
And then you saw Dale Earnhardt Jr go be Jeff
Gordon's teammate Yep, and thatwas like, oh wait a minute, now
what do we do?
You know, I'll tear you.

Speaker 4 (01:14:22):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:14:26):
So that might have been the start of some of tell
tal.

Speaker 3 (01:14:29):
All the time, too, we talk about golf and nascar
points.
I really love the way nascardoes a point system anymore,
right this is the new.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
This is the new point system, though right, I mean,
it's been around a while now,but new compared to what?

Speaker 3 (01:14:41):
what it was prior gotcha do you find it the same
way?

Speaker 4 (01:14:45):
yeah, yeah, I do, um, to be honest with you, it's not
something that I check all thetime, but I do know it is more
clear about who's getting pointsfor what position, and you know
you're getting x amount ofpoints for finishing here,
finishing there, where, like yousaid in the past, well, you get
x amount of points for leadinga lap or doing this or doing

(01:15:06):
that, and it was hard to keep upwith.

Speaker 3 (01:15:08):
So it is, I agree it is, when it gets to the playoffs
, how they make it very clearclear almost all the time of
what's going on.

Speaker 4 (01:15:16):
Yeah, I agree with that.
I think the only thing I don'tlike personally is how they end
the championship in one.
The championship is decided inone race.
You go an entire season andyou're going to crown that
champion and who finishes of thefinal four guys that's

(01:15:38):
remaining?
Who finishes higher?
You know, you may have yourbest guy have a flat tire on lap
whatever, and so you can'tcontrol that so as fans.

Speaker 1 (01:15:50):
What's your fix for that like, do you have something
in mind that you're like?
I would rather see this.

Speaker 4 (01:15:56):
I'll give mine Then, David you can give yours if you
want to.
Um, the, the way they have itset up.
Now is your final 10 races.

Speaker 2 (01:16:05):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:16:06):
Is pretty much what you know.
That's that's where yourchampions are going to come from
.
They're going to take howevermany.
I think it's like the top 16drivers are running for points
those last 10 races and say,after whatever three races it
may be, they will eliminate someof them, gotcha Okay.

(01:16:26):
So the way it is now is you getto that final race, they take
the top four drivers.
I would fix that.
Make it the final three racesinstead of it just being one,
one single race.
Make it three races.
Who's your top point getter inthose final three races?

Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
not only that, so really make your finals more of
a series instead of just aone-off.
Yeah, okay, yeah, I got you.

Speaker 4 (01:16:52):
you know, let it be over those final three races.
And also one thing I wish theywould change is I wish they
would rotate the final race Meand David was talking earlier.
What ends up happening is youmay have some team or some
driver that does really well atthat final track.
They're going to win thechampionship a lot of times and

(01:17:15):
there are certain teams that arereally good at certain tracks.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
You're just saying more like rotate location yeah,
like we should be at differenttracks, okay, super bow, kind of
.

Speaker 1 (01:17:23):
I mean we we talked about the same thing with golf.
Like I hate that the finals isalways the exact same spot, like
I'm, I'm cool with yeah,because you're good at that spot
.

Speaker 3 (01:17:32):
Yeah, and we talked about again in the golf world so
many people talk about.

Speaker 1 (01:17:38):
Well, this type of grass, this type of whatever
this type of climate, you just,I just don't play well in this
Right.
It's kind of the same thing.
You know, if a guy doesn't dowell in a kind of more of a
tricky course, a smaller track,where it's a lot more, you know,
thought out, instead of justflat out racing compared to you
know a bigger one, you canreally open it up.

Speaker 3 (01:17:59):
Yeah.
So yeah, I mean I understandthat.
I've always thought, yeah, weneed to rotate it around, and at
one point it was in Homestead,Miami and Phoenix, and that's
kind of in the two.
I feel like it is always thatand I hate phoenix I don't like
it.
I never have like.

Speaker 4 (01:18:13):
It's never a good race they tried to flip the
track and put the finish line onthe opposite side, where it
used to be.
Yeah, and they reconfigured itand all this stuff and I'm like
I hate this track.
Why, why are we finishing ithere?

Speaker 3 (01:18:25):
is that that's where they cut the first corner, like
crazy right yeah yeah I don'tget it.
So I've that thought, like canwe rotate that track around?
But it's still kind of, youknow, if that track falls good
for you that year, then they'regoing to win it and everybody
else.
You've got to wait another year, you know.
So I hadn't really thought ofit that way.

(01:18:45):
I really like the series ideabecause that's kind of how they
do the rest of the playoffs.
It's these three-r race, yeahseries and we drop what?

Speaker 1 (01:18:54):
four drivers off everything or three, whatever it
is, I can't remember.
So if you did a series, wouldyou incorporate different types
of track, like would would oneof the three be a road course,
which I know you're not a bigroad course?
fan, I don't know brian'sthoughts on that so they do that
in the final 10 races thatbrian's talking about sure, I'm
just thinking like when you getdown to your final four and say
they decide to go with here'sthree races, do you do a super

(01:19:16):
speedway, do you do a standardtrack and then do you do a road
course, or do you do two regularcourses?

Speaker 3 (01:19:22):
I'm okay with those in that final 10, but I'd like
the last series to be whatNASCAR is.
They're short tracks or mileand a half.

Speaker 2 (01:19:30):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:19:30):
I don't need super speedways, I don't need so you
kind of just want like astandard.

Speaker 1 (01:19:35):
I say standard for lack of a better term, but
standard track.

Speaker 3 (01:19:37):
Yeah, I'm okay having those.
It's on you.

Speaker 1 (01:19:38):
It's not on a teammate, it's on you.

Speaker 3 (01:19:40):
I'm okay having those to get to the final four, but
the final four should be NASCARFair.

Speaker 4 (01:19:45):
Make them different sizes, or a mile versus mile and
a half.
Yeah yeah, I don't want a roadcourse, as much as I like the
super speedways.
Talladega and Daytona.
That's such a.

Speaker 3 (01:20:01):
It's hard to crown a champion.
Yeah, that probably doesn'tmake good for a final.
No, it don't.
So I wouldn't do that.
And what's unique with NASCARis, you know, these four are
going for the championship.
Everybody else is still outthere, so they can affect you if
they wreck in front of you ordo something or whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:20:18):
So what are they racing for?
Is there still money on theline For those places, I mean?

Speaker 3 (01:20:24):
Whatever If they didn't make the top 16, they're
all racing for 17th, so they'restill racing.
They could fall way down theline.
If they don't race so they'restill racing they could fall way
down the line if they don'trace.

Speaker 1 (01:20:35):
So even then, I guess we talked about getting into
the final four.
Okay, everybody else iseliminated.
What are they racing for now?
So technically, fifth.

Speaker 3 (01:20:46):
Well, was it?
The four are racing for fifth.
There's four guys that canstill get fifth because they
were knocked out of that round.
I think Brian.

Speaker 4 (01:20:51):
Yeah, it is Okay.
Yeah, that's how it is.

Speaker 1 (01:20:54):
yeah, so those four of the from eight, basically
eight to five.
Right, you are now racing forthose four spots that round
right before the championshipround.
You're racing for those so thereason you're still trying to do
well is, I'm guessing, placingis more money oh, yeah, yeah
okay, so, so, and I guess in myterms, because what I understand
, like, like golf winner gets Xamount of dollars and even if

(01:21:17):
you know you can't win, you'restill trying to play as high as
you can, because there's stillhuge money available.
Much bigger than like standardraces, and all that.

Speaker 3 (01:21:23):
Yeah, okay, so very similar in that aspect.

Speaker 1 (01:21:25):
I got you.
That makes sense at least,because that's obviously.
I know nothing about a NASCARplayoff.
I know nothing about how thatworks about a NASCAR playoff.
I know nothing about how thatworks, but yeah, I could see,
though, like you're saying, kindof just, we've gotten here,
you've had to go through allthis and now one maybe track,
that you don't even like you'vegot to go out and really perform

(01:21:47):
at yeah, instead of, like yousaid, you get a flat season's
over, yeah and no.
Don't get me wrong, Part ofthat is anything you know.
We were just watching NCAAtournament.
Cooper flag gets a foul call onhim.
That is kind of their season.
At that point, any one thingcan technically derail it, but
as a fan you must want to say,all right, well, let's truly see

(01:22:10):
who's best right like over athree over a three race span.
You see who's best.
We say Like over a three-racespan.
You see who's best, not overone.

Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
We see this in other sports too, but I think even
more in NASCAR.
The best driver and teamusually doesn't win in my
opinion.

Speaker 4 (01:22:23):
No, not anymore.
I don't think so.
Yeah, I don't think so.
It's just like we said whoeverdoes best at that track.

Speaker 2 (01:22:32):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
I give some weight that they still got to get to
that last track, yeah, but oncethey're there, you know, we've
seen it, penske wins Phoenix alot.

Speaker 4 (01:22:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:22:46):
And they've been winning the championship when
it's at Phoenix.
Yeah, one of their drivers,they figured it out.

Speaker 1 (01:22:52):
So they got it so kind of for them, them, they're
thinking if we can just get tothe championship if we can just
get there we do well, therewe're good.

Speaker 4 (01:22:58):
It's like Hendrick at Homestead whenever it was at
Homestead when it was there.

Speaker 3 (01:23:03):
That's when Kyle Larson won.
He's good at that track.
It fits his style of racing, soI agree.
I think they gotta do somethingto help with that, yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:23:12):
Whether they will or not.
I doubt it because it don'tseem like NASCAR is, you know,
they.
It seems like whenever they dotry new stuff, they go the
opposite way of what people want.
But I mean, I wish they wouldtry new things.

Speaker 1 (01:23:27):
Let's just say this Many people have said that about
golf for a long time yeah,that's changing as of like next
year, like they're.
They're like hey, we'reactually throwing around the
term match play for the firsttime ever, which is something
fans talk about, but they'relike, oh, that'll never happen,
they'll never do those things.
So maybe if some of these otherleagues start making some

(01:23:49):
changes like that, where it'slike these are truly centered
around fan, like really just,this is gonna be best for fandom
, maybe they'll catch on.
Now there's some sports thatare always just we do what we
want, we don't care right, andnascar may be one of those it
kind of feels like one of thoseright now and again golf has
felt that way.

(01:24:10):
So I'm like, hey, there's hope,guys.
As a fan you know, not a nascarfan as a golf fan I'm like
we're seeing some of that'sgoing to possibly change.
For you guys.

Speaker 3 (01:24:18):
It's like there's still hope you know, don't give
up, maybe, maybe we'll see.
Um, it is exciting when you getto the playoffs.
It's another little sports.
The playoffs is more excitingthan the regular season right
but uh, it's definitelydifferent than what it used to
be yeah, I agree with that, Iagree hey, we got tyler in on

(01:24:40):
nascar talk that's right.
That's right well I kind ofjust got bored of sitting here,
so I figured I better jump in,somehow I'll book our trip to
talladega yeah, let's do it

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
you only need two tickets.

Speaker 3 (01:24:49):
I won't be there I think you would enjoy it more
than you think you would, justbecause it would be in a live
event.

Speaker 1 (01:24:57):
Like you may not care well, so here's the thing live
events are always different likewe've always said any kind of
live event is going to be fun tome.

Speaker 3 (01:25:04):
I like stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (01:25:05):
You never know, oh, I would have a blast.
A soccer game, yeah, like atrue, like big soccer game, I
think I'd have a blast, doesn'tmean I'm gonna sit home and
watch it on tv, yeah.
But I agree, especially likeyou know you're talking about
premier league over in europe.
You know some of their biggestteams over there, which I've
always heard you talk aboutsoccer over there like that's

(01:25:25):
their football yeah, like thatthat, like the way that they
treat it like their, their liferevolves around those teams.
So, yeah, the energy and justthe excitement that makes the
whole thing.

Speaker 3 (01:25:35):
Whether the soccer game's fun or not, that makes it
.
I would kind of get that at alive NASCAR event.

Speaker 1 (01:25:41):
I mean I could see that being possible, just
because a live event is, like Isaid, always to me a lot of fun.

Speaker 4 (01:25:47):
I've been to.
Even though I'm a NASCAR fan,I've only been to one NASCAR
race live Where'd you go?
kentucky speedway it's closednow, um, but if I was watching
it at home, just thinking backon the race, it would have been
very boring, which, tyler, youprobably think they all are.
They are.

(01:26:08):
Yeah, there was not many passesfor the lead, not not much
going on at all in that race,but it was fun being there and I
enjoyed it and it was prettycool, just, you know, watching
the cars and watching the pitstops, how they was happening
and stuff, and being able towatch all of them.
It was really cool.
I really enjoyed it.
Um, you know, before the racesand stuff, uh, like, some of the

(01:26:30):
drivers came out, didinterviews and stuff like that.
It it was pretty neat.
I had a lot of fun, um, but,like, like I said, if I was
watching on TV it wouldn't havebeen a good race.

Speaker 3 (01:26:41):
See, I went once to Charlotte and it was the same
way.
I loved all the stuff going on.
The only thing I missed was Iwanted to hear the commentary.
I wanted to hear him talkingabout the stories going on in
the pits and things, and it waseven at one point when they
started lapping each other.
At times you've got to kind offigure out, okay, what's going
on here and this and that.
So I missed that part.
But if I'm not mistaken, Ithink you can get headsets and

(01:27:06):
stuff like that to kind of getthat too.

Speaker 1 (01:27:07):
Yeah, I was going to say how do you feel?

Speaker 4 (01:27:16):
Because I feel, like every baseball game I've ever
been to, all the old men are inthe crowd with listening to the
game radio while they'rewatching.

Speaker 1 (01:27:20):
Yeah, well, there's radio or tv.

Speaker 4 (01:27:20):
It's like they gotta have that commentary like they
can't, just well I think thetracks like rent the things out
they do, and when we went,that's what we uh, me and my dad
did we got the, the scanner andyou could listen to the drivers
, but you could also tune in andlisten to the radio.

Speaker 1 (01:27:38):
Call, okay, so for you did that make it more
enjoyable then, yeah, yeah, Ithink so.
As far as just sitting therewith nothing.

Speaker 4 (01:27:46):
Oh, absolutely.

Speaker 2 (01:27:46):
Watching the cars go yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:27:47):
I think that would have been miserable.
Not miserable, it was still fun.

Speaker 1 (01:27:51):
Way less fun because, you're not getting the full
experience.

Speaker 4 (01:27:54):
Yeah, because really any other?

Speaker 1 (01:27:55):
sport.

Speaker 3 (01:27:56):
We did get Tyler in a NASCAR once yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:28:00):
He rode in Charlotte for like three laps, oh really.

Speaker 3 (01:28:02):
We all done it.

Speaker 4 (01:28:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:28:04):
I think he enjoyed that yeah but that's fun,
because I mean anything goingfast is fun.

Speaker 3 (01:28:09):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:28:09):
Like that's a fun experience.

Speaker 3 (01:28:11):
So you'd be okay driving a NASCAR.
You right like that.
That's a fun experience, soyou'd be okay driving a nascar.
You just don't want to watchthem probably I get it.
Yeah, I mean that'd be adifferent.

Speaker 4 (01:28:16):
That'd be different I get it for you golf car next
year.

Speaker 1 (01:28:20):
Talladega, let's do it tyler, I'm too big to be in a
nascar for that long like thoseguys are short.

Speaker 4 (01:28:28):
Most of those guys are fairly small like they're.

Speaker 3 (01:28:30):
They're not big I have to be too much to be in an
s car that long actually.

Speaker 1 (01:28:34):
Yeah, you would struggle so, uh, can we call a
time out?

Speaker 4 (01:28:38):
I gotta, you gotta use bathroom, not to give too
many details, but you remembertony stewart one year.
Uh, he had to use the bathroomand uh, as soon as he won the
race and he came out of the carand he's like the camera crew's
right there, he's like, guys,y'all got to give a few minutes.
I'm pretty sure it's thewatkins glen, I believe.

Speaker 3 (01:28:59):
But he's like y'all gotta give me a few minutes, and
he went in to change clothesyeah, oh, that's funny.
Yeah, I mean, I guess, if yougotta go, you gotta go,
especially if you're winning.
Yeah, stop now you know?

Speaker 1 (01:29:11):
see, that's, that's one of those things.
That's weird because I thinkback all the sports I've played
in my life, all the seasons, allthe games.
I've never had to go during agame.

Speaker 3 (01:29:21):
I remember playing football in high school halftime
.
I was always going to thebathroom, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:29:26):
So like.
But I'm just thinking likeduring.

Speaker 3 (01:29:29):
I've never left a game being on the bench.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
Yeah, being in a game I've never left a game.

Speaker 3 (01:29:36):
Being on the bench, yeah, being in a game I've never
been like.

Speaker 1 (01:29:37):
I think for me, maybe I gotta go, even whether it's,
you know, need to pee or need topoop, whatever like.

Speaker 2 (01:29:42):
I've never needed to do that, like Peter in halftime
yeah, like a little different,but I don't consider that the
same.

Speaker 3 (01:29:47):
Really, even during the podcast I'll go beforehand
and I think it goes back to thesame thing in sports.

Speaker 1 (01:29:51):
I always went when I could because I was afraid I
would have to go during yeah andso it's like let's just get out
of the way so I don't have toworry about it yeah, I just like
I feel like I've seen it morein the past few years,
especially like nfl guys gettingcaught on the sideline peeing
or needing to go back to thelocker room, and I'm like that's
never been a thing like it justfeels very weird to me that I

(01:30:16):
guess I don't know if it's justfocused on what I'm doing.
Whatever my mind does not go,hey, you need, you need to go.
Yeah, so that that's, I guess,weird to me thinking.
But again different, yeah,basketball game, football game,
small increments of time nascaronce they get in that car once
they get you know going.

(01:30:38):
What are most races like?
How long?

Speaker 4 (01:30:43):
I'd say you're averaging.
Uh, correct me if I'm wrong,david, I'd say three hours I was
gonna say three to four threeor four hours probably yeah, in
a kind of a cramped tightposition, a little different.

Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
I bet you get so much adrenaline and stuff, though,
that you don't really thinkabout it.

Speaker 4 (01:31:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:31:00):
You're so focused on what you're doing, but you've
got to be locked in for a longtime.
That's what's different aboutbasketball, too.

Speaker 1 (01:31:06):
But at what point does adrenaline wear off?
Because I mean anything likethe first few times, like for
you, first few times you playfootball.

Speaker 3 (01:31:16):
there's adrenaline there, but at some point it does
go away.
It's the wrong word, but likethis locked-in focus that you
kind of tune everything else out.
Well, see but other sports aredifferent.

Speaker 1 (01:31:27):
Like you think, like on the golf course, those guys
go to the bathroom all the time,like they're out there for four
or five, six hours, but there'sa bathroom every few holes.
Yeah, you know basketball youplay a half, you go back to the
locker room, there's bathroom.
Same thing for football.
Like play a couple quarters,half time, you go, you go in.

(01:31:48):
That's.
That's why I couldn't drive anNASCAR.

Speaker 4 (01:31:50):
It's very different and I think that's I think the
most impressive thing to me, orfor me that I could not do, is
being able to maintain thatfocus that the NASCAR drivers do
Say they're at Bristol MotorSpeedway you got a little over
half mile track.
You know they're flying aroundthere.

(01:32:11):
I mean I can't imagine howfocused they have to be during
that race 500 laps, 500 lapsaround there you know, as fast
as they're going and you've gotcars basically the entire length
of the track, the whole race.
Uh, to me that's impressive,because I cannot concentrate
like that.

Speaker 3 (01:32:31):
Yeah, I'd be looking at somebody in the stands and
then I'd be running into a car.
You'd have to be so wore out,yeah, mentally it'd be super
taxing.

Speaker 1 (01:32:40):
I can see that.

Speaker 3 (01:32:41):
The race the other day.
They were shifting four timesevery lap and it was like 400
laps or something.
I think it was maybeMartinsville where they were
Probably yeah.
And they're like that's 1,600shifts.

Speaker 4 (01:32:54):
Yep, and you better not miss one.

Speaker 3 (01:32:57):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:32:58):
Your day's done.
That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:33:00):
But no, it's not the same.
I still enjoy it.
For the most part, there's someboring stuff to it, but I still
get into it.
I do it since we're gettinglate here.

Speaker 1 (01:33:13):
Listen, it's the same for me.
I'm not going to enjoy it.
I'm not going to enjoy it now,but we're getting late, I don't
know when we'll get you back onhere.

Speaker 3 (01:33:19):
So do you have an early pick for NASCAR champion?
Remember it's at Phoenix.

Speaker 4 (01:33:26):
It's at Phoenix, so you got to go Penske.

Speaker 3 (01:33:34):
I don't even know who's leading the points right
now I don't either, I'll justsay Lugano again, I'm with you,
can't go wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:33:42):
I don't think.
I don't think it's going to beSendrick, that's all I'll say.

Speaker 3 (01:33:45):
It'll be one of the other two Penske cars.

Speaker 1 (01:33:49):
Yeah, it may be Blaney.
Current point leader WilliamByron.
Okay, kyle Larson second.
William Byron Okay, kyle Larsonsecond.
Chase Elliott third.

Speaker 3 (01:33:56):
Well, so they won races, right yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:33:59):
So yeah.
So, like you said earlier,they've done 10 races.
I pulled it up, okay, thisweekend will be 11.
I just kind of guessed at that.

Speaker 3 (01:34:06):
I figured it was right around there.

Speaker 4 (01:34:07):
That's pretty good, David.

Speaker 1 (01:34:08):
Logano, ninth currently Okay, apparently okay,
but see, when you win you goahead of everybody else just by
winning the race.
Well, but especially early,early in the season you got most
of your points from.

Speaker 4 (01:34:18):
yeah, I can see that yeah so so that's my, that's my
pick, I guess we'll see, I wouldbet, but don't, don't take my
picks.

Speaker 3 (01:34:27):
Nobody bet on that right now bobby, that goes for
you.

Speaker 1 (01:34:29):
Don't take this pick I don't have a clue if bob's a
NASCAR fan.
Actually I didn't think aboutthat.

Speaker 3 (01:34:35):
I don't know.
I'm going to have to ask himnext time.
I don't know.
I'm going to say that might bea pick, it'd be okay.
If you pick a Pensy car.
You're probably okay.
Yeah, For sure.
So, Tyler, you ready to getback in the conversation?
No, I'm good.

Speaker 1 (01:34:52):
I was just thinking like yeah.
I'm trying to think if there'sany other pressing question for
Brian, because there's alwayssomething that's like trying to
get somebody else's thought on,we're keeping him late, or
whether it's you know, you havea thought.
I have a thought.
Who's the tiebreaker?
Like you know, letting somebodybe that.

Speaker 3 (01:35:21):
Like I said, you need somebody to be on your side
about something.
Yeah, like there's plenty ofthose, so I don't have anything
currently.
I think it's been fun likepeople got to hear brian.

Speaker 4 (01:35:25):
We got to see that he agrees me with most things,
just not the baseball stadiumit's okay.

Speaker 3 (01:35:28):
You can be wrong about one thing, I guess that's
okay yeah, I've had a lot of funwrong about one thing.

Speaker 1 (01:35:37):
I guess that's okay.
Yeah, I've had a lot of fun.
Tyler's thinking yeah, I, justI, because I know there's
something and I know as soon asI shut this off, I'm gonna have
like five yeah I was like tryingto trying to have something,
but no, I'm.
I'm super happy that we gotbrian on um.
We originally talked for likeoh yeah, we'll just do like 30
minutes.
It's been an hour and a half andI knew it would happen, because
that's typical, what happenslike you just get going and it's

(01:35:58):
with some people, just easy,you just you just talk like it
just stuff goes a whole lot moresimple than and I know brian
kind of before we started he'slike, well, I don't really have
anything like, I'm kind of justgonna follow suit and it.
And it's like, don't worry it,it's, it'll be easier than you
think once you get going.

Speaker 3 (01:36:16):
Cause we normally don't have anything either.

Speaker 1 (01:36:17):
No, it just flows like that's.
That's the and again, the greatthing about sports it leads
into so many topics.
It does, yeah, Whether you knowyou're talking about NASCAR and
then somehow you get on thetracks, you get on to you know
the million different things.
So, yeah, that that definitelydoes make it easier.
Yeah, one quick question,because I did just think about

(01:36:39):
this.
Okay, and I don't know how thegrading system for health code
stuff works in kentucky.
I don't know if it's similar tohere.
Oh, I gotta ask this question sodo you want to go with this one
, because this is something youbrought up?

Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
no, go ahead.
I think I know where you'regoing, so Brian if you go to a
restaurant or through adrive-thru do you typically look
at their cleanliness healthsafety rating?

Speaker 1 (01:37:05):
If?

Speaker 4 (01:37:05):
it's visible, so here it has to be In North Carolina,
it is required to be visibleReally, and maybe it is in
Kentucky, I've just not noticed.

Speaker 2 (01:37:15):
But there is a few that I have seen.
Oh, you're going to notice itnow.

Speaker 4 (01:37:18):
I know whenever y'all talked about that previously
and maybe this is what you allsaid.
I can't remember, but inKentucky used to, whenever I was
younger, they would put them inthe newspaper.

Speaker 1 (01:37:31):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:37:34):
I don't think I've ever seen that.
And not only would they put thescore of the news or the score
of the restaurant in thenewspaper, they'd also put what
they was counted off on oh okay,so they were just like we're
putting all the laundry.

Speaker 3 (01:37:45):
Yeah, I got you yeah I bet it made restaurants stay
better.

Speaker 1 (01:37:49):
Yeah, because then it was gonna be the paper because
but that's the thing here, youget a low score, nobody knows
why.
Yeah, like you actually goingto be in the paper, but that's
the thing here, you get a lowscore, nobody knows why.
Yeah, like you actually have togo to the website, go do the
research, like, see all thethings.
But if you put it out thereit's like, hey, we found a rat
in the soup.

Speaker 3 (01:38:02):
Yeah, we're going to try to do way better with that,
because we all just assumethat's probably little things,
no big deal.
It could have been somethingcrazy, did you?

Speaker 1 (01:38:11):
ever go look those up .
I know we talked about it.

Speaker 3 (01:38:13):
I didn't know, but I thought it was funny.
It is interesting when youstart looking Brian gets into
town today and he's like we'regoing to go eat.

Speaker 1 (01:38:24):
Little.

Speaker 2 (01:38:24):
Caesars.

Speaker 1 (01:38:25):
No, because you suggested that like 15 times
this week You're like, hey, it'sright down the road, let's go.
He's like, before I I go eat, Ineed to know what that
restaurant was listen, I'll flatout call him out, because
here's the thing there are somereally good ones, yeah, like top
notch.

Speaker 3 (01:38:43):
Really good little teasers not here like this one
here quite a bit okay.
I mean I was there the otherday.

Speaker 4 (01:38:50):
So I tell you, I will tell you all a story.
Uh and you, this may havehappened whenever.
Well, I know it's happened whenyou was up there living.
It may have been whenever youwas living up there.
It happened in the town whereyou went to college okay um,
there was a chinese restaurant,I think okay.

(01:39:13):
And um, there were some peoplesitting there eating A Chinese
restaurant, I think Okay.
And there were some peoplesitting there eating and where
their seat was, they could seeinto the back of the restaurant.

Speaker 1 (01:39:22):
That's never a good seat.

Speaker 4 (01:39:24):
You don't want to see some things and so they're
eating and they look up and theysee this worker hauling in like
a big trash, can one?

Speaker 1 (01:39:37):
that's on, like that has wheels on it.
Okay, so right, one, big enough, that's too heavy.

Speaker 4 (01:39:39):
Yeah, gotcha they see like four hooves sticking up
out of the trash can they had.

Speaker 3 (01:39:47):
Once they did an investigation the worker had
went and got a roadkill deer andwas fixing it and serving it at
the restaurant and they endedup getting shut down for a while
yeah, you don't say yeah, thatone should have been in the
paper regardless, yeah, yeah,that that would be a fairly low
score, I will assume that'sfunny because I I came within

(01:40:11):
hairs of hitting one on the wayhere this evening yeah, first
one.

Speaker 1 (01:40:15):
I watched it cross and I'm like there's always
another, and so I'm sittingthere hovering the brake waiting
on it and it didn't come,didn't come.
I'm like, all right, it's fineas soon as my foot touches the
gas yeah, here it comes, and I'mlike, of course, because that's
the way it always works likeyou see the first one, never see
the second one.
So we'd had had dinner.

Speaker 3 (01:40:33):
If that was the case, no, you took it down to the
Chinese restaurant and sold it,apparently, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:40:37):
I don't know, ours here aren't bad.
Well, there's one I'm not crazyabout, but the other, the
smaller ones, are not that bad.

Speaker 3 (01:40:44):
That you know of.
Yeah, I mean again.

Speaker 1 (01:40:47):
It could be cat, I don't know no, hey, if it's good
, I guess it's good that's kindof the way I look at it, when
you get into meat like it's allthe same.
Oh, there's another one.
We talked about that.
Any, uh, exotic meats thatyou've tried no, not really.

Speaker 4 (01:41:02):
I'm.
I'm very plain.
Uh, frog legs is about itthat's so nothing like.

Speaker 1 (01:41:08):
I mean, that's not really a crazy, crazy out there
thing I have tried alligatormeat.

Speaker 4 (01:41:12):
I did try that.

Speaker 3 (01:41:13):
I think it's the same too.

Speaker 1 (01:41:14):
I said I just feel like, really for our country
that's not a super out therething.

Speaker 3 (01:41:21):
No, I don't think so, because there's so many places
that do that Frog legs should beout there, but it's really not.

Speaker 4 (01:41:27):
Whatever you think about it, that you're just going
to go grab that bullfrogjumping across the grass, I'm
going to eat his legs off.

Speaker 3 (01:41:33):
Here's the thing we're not going to eat the frog.

Speaker 4 (01:41:35):
We just want his legs , we just want his legs while
he's jumping.

Speaker 1 (01:41:38):
But I mean I can remember as a kid, like some of
these local lakes I mean it's aglorified pond but lakes and
going, frog gigging and likethese people are, I mean
catching them, clean them, cookthem and I'm like you know it's
not really that weird of a thingand I know this is a much more
rural place than a lot of places, but like that that wasn't

(01:41:59):
uncommon.
And then you really starttalking about, like we're you
know, a lot of gator and stuff.
Yeah, louisiana, alabama,florida, some of those that's
every day yeah, you're talkingcrawfish and all these things
yeah.
It's just very, very differentFor here not as much.

Speaker 3 (01:42:17):
Crawfish seems nasty.
Yeah, I don't know if I coulddo that.

Speaker 1 (01:42:21):
It's not really much different than shrimp.

Speaker 3 (01:42:24):
It just feels weird, like the way the little bodies
and stuff are.

Speaker 4 (01:42:29):
It's not really much different than that fry those
little dudes up, yeah maybe allright now.

Speaker 1 (01:42:35):
Is there anything that, like you, just like I'm
not even trying that and nottalking like cat, dog, like I'm
thinking more of, like somelarge animal or uh something
different that other countriesare just like.
Yeah, we do that all the time.

Speaker 4 (01:42:49):
I don't know, I can't think of anything right off
Like anything, like no, I don'tknow, maybe some kind of octopus
or something like that.
Yeah, that'd be weird, I don'tknow.
Well, so for me, I don't thinkit's the meat, I think it's the
presentation for me.

Speaker 1 (01:43:07):
Like you pull it out and it's just like because
there's there's some videos.

Speaker 2 (01:43:10):
I've seen these asian countries and it's still moving
octopus, it's like it's no,yeah, it's not, it's not dead.

Speaker 4 (01:43:18):
It's taking its tentacles and moving your fork
off the yeah, like there'sthere's one, and like it's
crawling out of this person'sbowl and like, no, you haven't
cooked it yet.

Speaker 1 (01:43:26):
why am I eating this?

Speaker 4 (01:43:28):
and like, oh, it nerves, and I'm like it seems
like it knows what it's doing,it's getting away and you're
just like no, you just eat it.

Speaker 1 (01:43:35):
No thanks, those are some crazy creatures anyways.
Octopus is an odd creature, Iagree with that it's octopi.
I don't know if it is octopus,like out in the open water.
No, no, because like I feellike it could pull me down and

(01:43:58):
do it like I couldn't stop thatright.
Like you said, eight tentacles,they're a decent size ones.
Gonna be pretty strong.
Like what do you do againstthat?

Speaker 4 (01:44:06):
they're smart yeah, um, I did try.
Uh, like I said, I'm prettypretty boring with my eating
habits.
Did try sushi for the firsttime here.
Was that?
Was that a yay or nay?
No, absolutely, not absolutelynot.

Speaker 1 (01:44:22):
I feel like most people, which I'm not.
I'm not a sushi person.
Yeah, I'm not a huge fishperson as a whole, but I don't
like raw things yeah, no I'mmore of a cooked food, cooked
meat kind of person yeah me.

Speaker 3 (01:44:35):
My wife tried it several years ago.
I thought let's just see whatthis is about.
Yeah, and I took a bite and Isaid I felt like I went down to
the pond, picked out a fish andjust took a bite out of it.
It still tasted the exact same,so I don't know what people see
in it there there's so manypeople that are like that's the
go-to.

Speaker 1 (01:44:50):
They love sushi and I don't know why.

Speaker 4 (01:44:54):
I had a former boss and it was a work thing that we
had and she's like I had made acomment and I've never tried
sushi and she really likes sushi.
She's like we'll try it, we'lllet the company pay for it.
And so she's like, you willlike it.
So I get to puke on the companystuff I got you.
So she orders it.

(01:45:14):
And of all the places we went,it was in Somerset, so a sushi
place in Somerset.

Speaker 1 (01:45:21):
I think it's where I first tried it.
So that's the thing to me.

Speaker 3 (01:45:27):
If you're going to do sushi, I need to be close to
the water.
Yeah, that's not close to thewater.
It's like it can be very fresh.
No, it's not coming from lakecumberland, I guarantee you that
um.

Speaker 4 (01:45:34):
So she orders like different kinds, I don't even
know much about.

Speaker 1 (01:45:39):
I don't know much.

Speaker 4 (01:45:40):
It's all raw fish, yeah, but she's she's like okay,
try this, take one bite.
No, she's like okay, you'lllike this one I try it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:48):
So when you took these, did you actually like
finish the bite?

Speaker 4 (01:45:50):
like absolutely not, yeah no, I did finish it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:53):
Okay, yeah, but I wasn't going to eat the not like
continuing, yeah, yeah, no forme, for me, it's tried to bite,
no spit it out like I can't evenfinish if anybody's never had
sushi.

Speaker 3 (01:46:03):
Have you ever had sushi by the?

Speaker 1 (01:46:04):
way.
Yeah, oh yeah, I've tried it.
Yeah, no, if you never had, ittook a bite spit, couldn't?

Speaker 3 (01:46:09):
Sometimes, when you're like, especially by the
lake or something, it rains andyou get this fish smell.

Speaker 4 (01:46:13):
You get the smell, I feel like.

Speaker 3 (01:46:14):
That's what it tastes like the smell.

Speaker 4 (01:46:16):
I can see that yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:46:17):
So I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:46:23):
But see that.
So how many did you try?
Try three or four, and she'dget the waitress over because at
some point it's a no.

Speaker 1 (01:46:29):
Yeah, it's just a no for me trying to find something
is there any that tastes likehamburger?
Or cheeseburger which onetastes like dino, because I'm
confused.

Speaker 3 (01:46:39):
Can we go throw this on the grill for a minute?
I'd probably love it fantastic.

Speaker 1 (01:46:42):
Well, so that's the thing like you take that fish
out, grill it and then put therice and all this.

Speaker 3 (01:46:45):
I'm like yeah, that could probably be pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:46:48):
I got a long time to prepare a meal at that point.

Speaker 3 (01:46:50):
I don't know that's different too.

Speaker 1 (01:46:56):
That's a whole different.
But like your statement aboutwhen it rains and you get that
smell, that to me like when youhave cooked fish.
If you get that fishy taste,you didn't do it right.
You shouldn't have.
You should get the good flavor,but not that fishiness.
That should be gone.

Speaker 3 (01:47:11):
You get the fish from the grocery store and it's make
sure you cook it to a certaintemperature.
But here's some raw fish, right?

Speaker 1 (01:47:16):
But then they're like hey, you can't eat too much
because you can get mercurypoisoning.
You can get this and get that.

Speaker 4 (01:47:21):
I'm like listen if.

Speaker 1 (01:47:23):
I'm going to engage in the type of eating that I
want to eat like then Ishouldn't have any real
repercussions other than juststomach ache.
We're starting to talk sometype of really bad sickness.
No thanks, yeah, I don't needthat.

Speaker 4 (01:47:37):
No, so sushi was definitely a no-go for me.

Speaker 1 (01:47:41):
Have you been to the Brazilian barbecue or the
Brazilian steakhouse?

Speaker 3 (01:47:46):
No, when they just keep bringing meat.
Tyler talked about going thereone time on a trip for work or
something.

Speaker 1 (01:47:55):
Yeah, I was in Orlando and they I mean you'll
get the meat sweats ReallyBecause it doesn't stop.
You have a little placard onyour table Green, they keep
coming.
Red, they stop, but you canflip it back at any given time.
Yeah, I don't know that.

Speaker 3 (01:48:12):
Mine ever went red like they would bring something
you want or well, so they havestuff on rotation.

Speaker 1 (01:48:21):
Um, there was, most of it was beef.
Um, they had some lamb, which Iwas no on that, but they had a
pork thing that was really good.
A bunch of different types ofsteaks.
It was all mainly beef and outof the steaks I had, there
wasn't a bad one.

(01:48:41):
Like every one of them I'm like, yeah, go ahead and bring me
more.

Speaker 3 (01:48:44):
Yeah keep bringing it , and it's one of those like
you're going to pay, obviously,because steak's obviously
expensive too.

Speaker 1 (01:48:49):
but you're going to pay, obviously, because steak's
obviously expensive too, but itwas worth it.
To me it's not something I'mgoing to go like yeah, we do
that once a week.
That's maybe a once-a-yearthing, if that, because I felt
miserable possibly for the restof the week.
But for that night, like it wasa fun thing, like going out
with everybody going to do that,and it was a ton of food on my

(01:49:09):
budget.
It sounds like going to goldenground so it reminds you of like
the buffet style, becauseobviously the amount that
they're bringing but they havelike a small little buffet area
so you can get like somedifferent sides and some
different things, which is kindof nice because otherwise you
just have a plate of meat.

Speaker 3 (01:49:25):
If I have unlimited steak, I am not touching the
side right.
So what was nice?
What?

Speaker 1 (01:49:30):
was nice, though, is like you would have some like I
had like a baked potato with itand it kind of like would
cleanse what you've got going onto get the taste of the next
one.
So then it's not just basicallythe grease of all the meat
you're eating and you don'treally know what's what, but no,
it was it was fantastic.

Speaker 3 (01:49:47):
We always get on food .
On this we do we do?

Speaker 4 (01:49:48):
That's all right, it just happens.
I like food.

Speaker 1 (01:49:50):
I'm getting hungry now A good steak would be good,
though A good steak would begreat.
We need to find us a Braziliansteakhouse to go to.

Speaker 3 (01:49:59):
Because I think you'd enjoy it.
I would there's no questionabout that, it would be a fun
thing, so that would be thething.
Brian comes into town, we'llfind one, and then we'll record,
maybe the next day, becausethat day

Speaker 2 (01:50:11):
is not going to be.
We're not going to feel likedoing it after that.
You need a nap after you getout of here.

Speaker 1 (01:50:16):
But yeah, I mean, that'll be the thing Every time
Brian comes in, we'll have to godo something.

Speaker 3 (01:50:21):
Whether it's a ball game or a race or something Make
it easy We'll just come up withthese reasons for him to come
here.
Make it easy We'll just come upwith these reasons for him to
come here Right.

Speaker 1 (01:50:30):
Hey, Ryan, National Championships this week.
You want to come in?

Speaker 2 (01:50:33):
Yeah right, I'll be right there.
We've already bought thetickets.

Speaker 1 (01:50:36):
We didn't even know you could come, which I don't
know.
I don't know that.
I'd want to see the NationalChampionship live as much as I
would like it on TV.

Speaker 3 (01:50:46):
Same thing I want to commentary.

Speaker 4 (01:50:47):
Yeah, I do too.
I want the stories.

Speaker 1 (01:50:50):
Which I do feel like we were talking about earlier.
Nascar, I feel like I'd have aharder time, especially, like
you said, the small tracks.

Speaker 4 (01:50:56):
Yeah, I don't know who's in what position.
Yeah, the way they're past eachother, it gets hard yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:51:00):
But like when you think about football, basketball
, it's a little to me easier toengage yeah, I won't replay, and
replay, and replay yeah, I dotoo it's me and I want to hear

(01:51:23):
about the backstory and whysomebody's hurt going locker the
locker room, and about theirgrandmother and the story behind
why they started playing.
I want all that.

Speaker 4 (01:51:37):
Yep, I'm with you.

Speaker 1 (01:51:41):
Alright, well, the last question before we go.
You did talk about sportsmovies real quick.
Do you have your top five?
Top five no particular order,just like ones that you're like.
These are my go-to is alwayslike an easy okay, and david
mentioned this one.

Speaker 4 (01:51:58):
Uh, it is a christian movie movie, but facing the
giants, I I think is a greatmovie very low production.

Speaker 1 (01:52:05):
Yeah, great movie yeah, I like several of the
movies of that studio greatmovies.

Speaker 3 (01:52:11):
Yeah, it is very difficult because production
value is so, but that one isstill, so it's a good movie but
it at times it's hard to watchbecause it's just rough.

Speaker 1 (01:52:22):
And if I'm not mistaking um.

Speaker 4 (01:52:25):
Like all the actors and actresses at least, at least
those first few movies, it'sjust people from their church.

Speaker 1 (01:52:32):
Yeah, it's all local.
It's like, hey, have you everthought of acting?
You got a part.

Speaker 4 (01:52:38):
Yeah, so I like that.
Going back to baseball.
Field of Dreams.
I hate that movie.

Speaker 1 (01:52:53):
Field of Dreams I'm never, never gonna stop saying
the quote, yeah, but people saythat don't even know the movie I
don't care, I know you.
They don't even know thecontext well, no, but like
that's a famous famous quote andit's like like that.
I just have never enjoyed thatmovie.
I don't know why yeah there'sjust something about it.
The same thing like will willhates the sandlot I'm like.

Speaker 4 (01:53:12):
I like the sandlot.
I've never seen it.
No, I like the sandlot that'sprobably up there watch it um,
and I like football games otherthan facing giants like uh,
remember the titans?
I've never seen that.

Speaker 3 (01:53:23):
So I've not seen a lot of.
Yeah, that's a good.

Speaker 1 (01:53:27):
There's a lot of sports so when you go back to
Kentucky, yeah, you have to eatan Uncrustable while watching.

Speaker 4 (01:53:34):
Remember the Titans yeah, I'll have to do that.

Speaker 1 (01:53:37):
I don't know if I've ever met somebody that hasn't
seen that movie.
I have not not that's not likea child.

Speaker 4 (01:53:49):
I'm sure dragons now.

Speaker 3 (01:53:51):
I'm trying to think Was there a mascot that was a
dragon, I can't remember.
You ain't got the WD-40 overthere yet.

Speaker 1 (01:53:57):
No, I know, but now I'm like twisting in it.

Speaker 3 (01:54:00):
I think I'm trying to keep myself awake.
It's been a long day.
Any other sports news come tomind?

Speaker 4 (01:54:05):
Um, I'm sure, once I get out, once we leave, I'll
think of five more.
Um.
Did you like days of thunder,you know?

Speaker 3 (01:54:16):
that came to my mind right as you said that, uh, I
just like days of thunder.
It's so old.

Speaker 4 (01:54:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:54:20):
I wonder if they do like a modern.
It probably wouldn't be toogood if they did.

Speaker 4 (01:54:23):
Yeah, yeah, I like days of thunder.
I thought it was pretty cool.
Yeah, I thought it was prettycool.

Speaker 1 (01:54:27):
I think the only NASCAR movie I've seen is
Talladega Nights, so I can'treally comment too much on that.

Speaker 3 (01:54:34):
You go watch Days of Thunder but I do watch Road
Titans.

Speaker 1 (01:54:36):
I watch Sandlot, those are not on the same level.

Speaker 3 (01:54:39):
No, Regardless not even being a NASCAR fan, I think
you'd like it still.

Speaker 1 (01:54:45):
I'm not saying I wouldn't like the movie, but
those are not the same level.

Speaker 3 (01:54:48):
Just because of Tyler's answer.
Did you ever watch Draft Day?

Speaker 4 (01:54:52):
No, because we bought him the movie for Christmas.

Speaker 1 (01:54:55):
I'm not the only one.

Speaker 3 (01:54:57):
I didn't buy Brian the movie either.

Speaker 1 (01:54:58):
I did see it was on a streaming service here recently
and I was like at this point Ijust can't watch it, I know.
At this point it is my Star.

Speaker 3 (01:55:07):
Wars.
I gotta just let it be.
You're missing out, I'm justgoing to have to miss out.

Speaker 1 (01:55:15):
We'll say a movie that I didn't think about at the
time we were doing these listsI really like is Moneyball.

Speaker 3 (01:55:24):
I don't know if I've seen it.
Moneyball is a good movie.
I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (01:55:28):
Brad Pitt.
I've seen clips Oakland A'smovie.
Okay, yeah, that's the.

Speaker 4 (01:55:33):
Good movie.
I know what you're talkingabout.
I've not seen it.
I really liked it.

Speaker 1 (01:55:35):
It was a good one.
It's just and it's a lot likeyou talked about with draft day,
like you're seeing a lot moreof the process and seeing some
of that Like just seeing howthey made, made the team that
they did, like hey, we're notgoing to get this many home runs
because we don't have the money, but if we sign two of these
guys for a tenth of the price,they equal that amount.

(01:55:56):
And just seeing the processthey really went through, I
thought that was a fun one to gothrough.
So I like that one a lot.
Obviously, we talked aboutMighty Ducks fantastic, oh, yeah
.

Speaker 4 (01:56:08):
Which have you seen?

Speaker 1 (01:56:09):
1.

Speaker 4 (01:56:09):
You seen one, two and three I know I've seen one and
two um, I can't remember three Iknow three is like back at,
like the private school, I thinkthe warriors or something like
that I may have seen that oneI've only seen like once or
twice, because to me, it wasn'tthat good.

Speaker 1 (01:56:28):
It just wasn't, it didn't have that same draw to it
.
Right that the the second one,especially to me, had.
That's my favorite one.

Speaker 4 (01:56:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:56:35):
And then the first one first one's good.
Yeah, which have you seen?
We've talked about that, haveyou seen?

Speaker 3 (01:56:40):
that I've.
That's one I want to go backand watch in a while I kind of
remember but it's not somethingthat's on my mind fresh.

Speaker 1 (01:56:49):
That'll be a Disney Plus thing with the kids.

Speaker 4 (01:56:51):
Yeah, did you all.
It seems like you all mentionedBlue Chips last week, is that
right?

Speaker 1 (01:56:57):
Yeah, Will brought that up.
Will bring it up.

Speaker 4 (01:57:00):
Yeah, I think that's one of his favorites.
I think I could be wrong, but Ithink that movie had Patino in
it maybe.
But I think that movie hadPatino in it maybe.
Oh, really, Okay, I think.
So there was something some.

Speaker 3 (01:57:15):
Kentucky connection somewhere in there.
Now I want to watch it.

Speaker 4 (01:57:17):
Yeah, and it may have just been a small clip of him
on the sideline or something,Any movie that randomly has the
Kentucky mascot, David oh now Igot to watch it, kentucky's
everywhere, don't even know

Speaker 1 (01:57:27):
what it is, but I got to watch it.

Speaker 2 (01:57:29):
Yep, yeah, kentucky's everywhere Don't even know what
it is, but I got to watch it.

Speaker 1 (01:57:31):
Yeah Well, like I said, I'll make that the last
question because our 30 minutesturned into way way more, which,
knowing ourselves 30 minuteswas never going to happen.

Speaker 4 (01:57:42):
That was just a lie.

Speaker 1 (01:57:42):
We told you, but I appreciate you coming on.
It was a lot of fun.
I've enjoyed it.
You do get an invite to returnwhenever you'd like.

Speaker 2 (01:57:53):
All right.

Speaker 1 (01:57:54):
That's not something we throw out to everybody, just
the two guests we've had.

Speaker 3 (01:57:57):
I don't know if we gave that to Will.

Speaker 1 (01:58:00):
I mean technically, we didn't tell him.
No, we'll say that, oh okay, hedidn't get the hey appreciate
you but we're going to move in anew direction.
We didn't give him that talk,so I think he's probably pretty

(01:58:23):
good.
But I appreciate Ryan coming on.
I know we talked about our busyday but he's had plenty of
travel and plenty of the stuffthat goes on with it.
But we're super grateful forwhat Brian does for us on all
the social media and heck halfthe time I know what games are
on that day because Brian'sposting it.

Speaker 3 (01:58:37):
I'm the same way.

Speaker 1 (01:58:37):
I keep up with a lot of it.
That way it's just way easier.

Speaker 3 (01:58:40):
And the times there'll be games.
I know is coming on and I'llsee it on Facebook and I'm like,
oh for next season.
I gotta get him posting whenTGL is because.

Speaker 1 (01:58:52):
I never keep up.

Speaker 4 (01:58:54):
I did the last, the playoffs.

Speaker 1 (01:58:55):
I saw the playoffs but I was like I never could
find it before then you almosthave to go to the website.
