(00:36):
be twenty one and in New Jerseyor Pennsylvania gambling problem one eight hundred gambler.
I am Tectorarity. My current isback from Italy. Ready to ranks.
All here and yes, John Jansen, Kyle not a maker you just
heard and the Phillies with the winof the year last night. They won
twenty three of their last thirty twentythree and Tom Sevans since June third,

(00:58):
Christian posh Hey, who was acareer one fifty six hitter until he got
to the Phillies, is fourteen ofhis last thirty seven for three seventy eight
batting average, and he hits atwo run home run with the top of
the ninth, I don't know whatto win the game. And then they

(01:19):
come in and the bottom of thenight then the bullpen has been ridiculous the
last twenty five innings. If yougive it up zero rot starting pitching.
Starting pitching has been pretty good too. Sanchez, Now, about six weeks
ago, starter not, I say, Now, I didn't say they were
gonna go twenty eight. Now yousaid you guys. Also you said it
for sure, you said they wouldmake They might not. Maybe, maybe

(01:41):
they'll fizzle somewhere. I don't know. Hey, if they if they happen
to win this series and they whatdo they want? Thirteen in a row
on the row and he beat somegood teams. Yes, they have Marlins
a good team. It's weird tosay that about the Marizona very good team.
Arizona were theirs were playing until theygot there. Who would have thought?
Imagine if they win, um,these next to fifty and thirty nine

(02:04):
at the breaking, that's incredible.And I know they've been great on the
road, but when they get toSunday after the games tomorrow, they will
have had fifty one road games andonly thirty eight home games. Oh wow.
And they were terrible on the roadfor most of the season until now
you know what they go after theAll Star break, they hit forty three
home games in thirty road games.Yeah, I know they've been great on

(02:27):
the road, but obviously you wouldrather play at all the only team that's
been better than them during Yeah,they've been better. The Braves are particular.
Do you know the Brave news isthey're hot now. It ain't about
now, it's that OCTOPI. TheBraves their own pace. They are real.
If you set a record for mosthome runs, incredible, they have
most every Yankees used to do onthe record. I don't know if they

(02:51):
hit sixty two June or something likethat. Yeah, it was just just
completely It's one of the best topto bottom lineups I've seen in a very
long time. I mean it's we'veseen really good lineups, but you know
one through four, you know theycan go six, maybe seven. This
is nine deep. That their entirelineup is capable of hitting a home run,
capable of big hits. They areso loaded, and half of it's

(03:12):
from their farm system. It isguys that are on cheap contracts because they
signed them early. It's the Bravesare probably the most well run baseball organization.
We see it over and over againwhen they're missing their starting rotation,
a lot of guys and they're stillabout prospects. How about the Reds.
The Reds are starting. I mean, and now Texas is Texas young or

(03:36):
did I know they signed Siger?But they they've been they've been signing the
guys. Five starters in the allstart game. Yeah, two guys got
subbed in. Yeah, and thisis after they signed the GRAMA has never
picked. Yeah, right right.Yeah, they spent all that money on
the gram and they're still having aTexas as a team. You don't even
think who would have thought nathany ofAaldi would be the pitcher? Yeah,

(03:57):
predictab. The Angels are done.Yeah, poor the Angels. Everybody got
hurt all at the same time.Trout got hurt, Random got hurt,
and every rendown got hurt. Yep, no shot found one off the well
in a shocking way where he foundoff the inside of his knee. Even
our man as a blister. Hecan't pitch. Can he hit? I
think he can still hit? Ithink so yeah, he can hit.

(04:17):
He was gone. I'm telling youit's going to be a billion that I
don't know who I like a billionfor ten that sounds like I think it's
billion. For less than ten soundslike a billion for about eight. So
the fillings are hot back right intothe wild card spot. There's five teams
for three spots are all within likethree games, so anything goes. But

(04:41):
they put themselves in a good spotheading yeah, and they're they're gonna have
a street where they go five andseven. That that's just last September,
the beginning of September to had thatthat bad run, but Walker was worse,
thank you. I don't know.They might not lose a game for
the rest of the season, soI don't know who was what it's over
last night for the debut A victorwimban Yama. But let's let's see,

(05:04):
let's put this in context. Hewas two for thirteen. I kept as
I watched him, he looked likea newborn cult just coming out. His
legs splayed all end. Yeah,I mean his legs he kept falling down.
And afterwards he said, he said, I didn't have any idea what
was going on out there. Itwas great. And he's obviously been on

(05:26):
a whirlwind tour. He went toNikes Britney Spears seas I didn't notice her.
Uh, he's been all over theplace. It looks like he's totally
out of shape. I don't knowwhat that meant. He made some terrific
passes. He's a really good ballhandler. He shoots free throws like like
Joe hell umbeat his free throws lookedgreat. Got posterized, but yeah he
got He get posterized by some guynever heard of, and they're all,

(05:51):
they're all out there get But yeah, that was it was not It was
not good. But I wouldn't takeall the things. I wouldn't be too
cond It's interesting that was your description. There's only one person that I saw.
Nineteen eighty four or five, Igo out to Carlisle, Pennsylvania,
did their story on Jeff Lebo whowas a tremendous guard him and Prove Richardson.

(06:14):
Proove Richardson played here in the city. Jeff was played at Carlisle and
they were former North Carolina guard alsoEast Carolina coach coach. But anyway,
I go out there, dad washis dad was the coach. He was
great. And I'm sitting there andI'm looking and the father looks at me.
He goes, you see that kidover there, And I'm like yeah,
And he was exactly what Dick justdescribed looked like the Colt that did

(06:36):
come out, and it's like,he goes, that kid's gonna be better
than my son, And I'm like, what Billy Owens four state titles,
fifty in his last game and wentto Syracuse and pay right. Yeah,
one of the best players in thehistory. Yes, yeah, there's no
argument about that. But yeah,Victor just it looked ghassed everything about him.

(06:57):
He didn't He'd only been practicing witha team for a few days.
He just looked lost. So Idon't know what to make him at all.
But whatever, let's move on andwatch him a few more times before
we just declare him a buck.I was gonna be one of my rants.
Yeah, that's fine. I meanthe difference is he's not coming in
here like Lebron James, who wasalready a finished product. A man.

(07:18):
This kid is nineteen and looks everybit of nineteen. It's really thin.
I don't know how much he weighs, but let him play a few years
exactly. Let's let's well, also, let's not take anything away from the
summer League, which is never correlatedto NBA. Yeah, there's let let
let pop have him for a coupleof years. Oh yeah, and let's

(07:38):
see what he looks like when he'stwenty two. And Brett Brown, my
man, Bret Brown was hanging outlast night with Pop that they did good
guy. Put in a tough spothere at Philadelphia players coach, I thought,
since Velanov is on the station,I thought I would mention that the
USA basketball team is going to bein the World Games. Twenty five percent
of the team is Velanova. Gosh, Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Mcaal

(08:01):
Bridges are all on the team.Steve Kerr obviously does all about the Villanova
guys, and he specifically mentioned Brunsonand Bridges as guys that he's really going
to be counting all. I'm surehe told his first time as a head
coach. Will obviously Jay worked withhim on the Olympic team in USA basketball.
So the World Games are in Iwant to say the Philippines. That

(08:24):
sounds ready. It's somewhere in thefar East, but yeah, they're they're
getting together to start training. Idon't know how many of these players will
be on the Olympic team next year, but some of them obviously will.
And the Sixers drafted one the factthat Bill could have drafted the other and
I don't know where Joshua. I'mtrying to remember where josh went. But
again, and the Knicks got threeof them. And the Knicks now have

(08:46):
three if they have heart, theyhave Brunson, Now they have Dante divin
checks. So they're going to cometo Philadelphia next year. Is gonna be
a game where those three guys whohave sixty's gonna go off. And I'm
sure mcaal Bridges would like to getout of Brooklyn and get somewhere of him
where he is, but well,he's I mean, he's gonna he's gonna
gonna be the guy there. SoI mean, even just they get Dame

(09:09):
if Miami doesn't work out. Right, one of the I don't think one
of the rumors is at least throughJersey has enough is basically saying he's gonna
do a hard if he doesn't gettraded in Miami. I'm not going I
don't believe that first second, that'swhat he said, right, I think
he's that kind of guy. UmB is the Portland guy is not going

(09:31):
to just give him up. Butall these guys would say they want to
go somewhere they go. There's sucha tough and Net's got a lot back
for k d Um. I don't. I just don't think they're gonna say,
yeah, give us Tyler Hero andtake him. I mean, I
do I think that's gonna happen.I mean, he's probably gonna involve a
third team. But I think thatthe tough kind of balance you're doing here

(09:54):
is you need to do right byyour superstar because if you want another superstar,
you gotta. It's just it's that'sthe way the league is, and
it's it's a really tough spot.But I think if they can sweet it
up with a third team, youknow, then yeah, I think there
is a chance. And does anybodyhave any idea what the Sixers are doing
or not doing? Nothing? Theygot Path Beverley. Oh and they resigned
Montrese Harold for a year. Youknow what paid Daryl Morley got Crumble.

(10:16):
Should I re ask that question?I mean, seriously, what is going
on? Um? Yeah, theyhave twelve active players on the roster and
it's it's another one. They signedMontres Harold, which was a great time.
Yeah, mo bamba. They gotas well West out School High Upside
guy in a sixth year. Youknow, still Montez. Harold's a great

(10:37):
resigning Patrick can't get on the courtin the playoff. Patrick Beverley is the
guard version of PJ. Tucker.They got a lot of added There were
a lot of people that liked thatmove. I just don't. I don't.
I don't like it either can't,he can't shoot. He's seen better
for the Sixers are right back wherethey were two years ago when they had

(10:58):
Ben Simmons and when play here.So now you have and I'm still trying
to figure out so Harden opts in. And when they first told me Hard,
I'm like, okay, well whathe's telling you is he couldn't get
thirty but he couldn't get thirty fivemillion from anybody else. Yeah, that's
right. But they're right back.They have a disgruntled player who doesn't want
to be or who they're trying tomove. Ye, what's shame. One

(11:18):
of my favorite things are retooling again, Mike. One of my favorite things.
This week, somebody said, well, Harden, he'll really have a
great year because he's gonna have tobe a free age. He just had
it. Nobody's gonna want him nextyear. If they didn't want him this
year, they're not gonna want gonnabe another year older on bad knees.
Yeah, it's yeah, said hehad a really good year. He doesn't
have to have a terrible end ofthe playoffs like he always does. But

(11:39):
yeah, he's not getting that,you know what Hardy wants. And I
don't think he's gonna have a year. He might, he might, He's
gonna end up back here, Jameshard who wants wants to score twenty eight
a game. He ain't scoring twentyeight a game on this maybe any team,
but not on this team. WhenJoe's going to get his thirty two
or whatever, and you're trying toget um uh the other guy, um

(12:01):
Max Maxie, you're trying to gethim more in about. All I know
is if they had Halid Burton Maxie, they would have their backcourt for the
next eight to ten years. Yeah, but they don't. But they don't.
They don't. And Haliburton, bythe way, is the other point
guard on USA basketball with I justthought him and Brunson the two point you
got and he got paid to Maxand he's twenty bunch, twenty four,

(12:26):
twenty five that's about right. Haliburton'slike twenty four. I don't even think
he's had that. I think he'slike twenty three. Ain't hard But Daryl
Morey is going to fix this.I'm a big who's Brian winners? I
like Brian, but he keeps sittingon the ESPN all week. Did Darryl
Morio something up a sleeve? Yeah? Yeah, you know what he's saying,

(12:48):
his arm, That's what he hasup his sleeve. He's got nothing.
And Harold the treasury signing give methis season is going to start with
James Harden in a sicker uniform oryou can back on because there's no there's
I would anybody want him, right, But what are you going to get
for for James Harden? Apparently not? And I think that's frustrating to watching

(13:09):
those finals just seeing the ball movementright and those finals and you're gonna get
the complete opposite again with hardening himbe he did leave the league and assists.
I mean, it's easy to rackup assist when you hold the ball
for the first twenty six he stilllet Yeah he's really good, is it?
A good offensive player? But ifthe scoring is just going to continue
to get worse, and I thinkthat's going he doesn't get the worse,

(13:31):
but even just yeah, what didhe used to do all the time?
Get to the foulon? You can'tdo it any more. You can't get
fined. Toyboddy doesn't get found.That's the one thing. Lollard's numbers are
amazing. Loard's stills the elite jumpshooter, three point shooter with unlimited range,
and he gets to the foulon.Yeah, because he can still get
question because a great I'm being seriousabout this because I don't know the answer.
There's Pat Beverley and even Mamba toa degree, but he's not a

(13:54):
Does he help the perimeter defense?No, okay, because there's fermive defense.
There was a time when he Buthe's like PJ Tucker, I got
yeah, I PJ. Tucker isa great defender. Was defender is the
right word. He doesn't have thefootspeed anymore to stay. Is probably a
better defender than Deverly. Talk hisway out of LA last year or something
wasn't hest his way out of everything. He's annoying. He's a he's a

(14:18):
fun guy. If he's on yourteam and he and he yells and screams,
and it would be like PJ inthat way. He'll complain to the
refs all the time, but hejust he doesn't have it anymore. He's
gonna be He's gonna be another guythat we're watching this year. And every
time he takes his shot, you'regoing no, and he's corks still on
the team. Yeah, And he'lltake charges and even though he requested to
trade those, he'll get technicals.He'll argue with the refs. He'll be

(14:41):
great. It's gonna be fun.It's gonna be good year, Strap up
boys and oh great. So he'sgonna be a guard version of the White
House. Does anybody that Nick Nursehis presence is going to bring something different
to the equation. I'm just askingit can't be any worse than the previous.
Yeah. Here, he just lookedto me like he was mailing at
at this point. But I thinkit will be better, more creative ideas.

(15:05):
I don't know if yeah, ifthat's going to completely will Harden and
or more importantly, MP listened tothe coach and do what they say.
Well, well, in beach showup, will he be in shape?
Yeah? I know he was atthe he was at the Hamptons last week
with Rubin and the crab with thewhite shirt and not care all that stuff
there. Yeah, I mean it'sjust like Tom Tom Brady was flirting with
Kim Kardashian and next year's years kindof a max Maxie has to take a

(15:30):
step up next year. Now,look, you're gonna have to pay him,
and that could be scary and alittle bit. But who understands why
they're not paying him yet? Doesanybody understand why he Maxi? Because they
there is more value on him withjust the one year deal, I think
extend like extended deal. They're probablygonna wait till they can and they can
match any deal that comes his waynext year. I think all of the

(15:52):
reports are also saying that, youknow, it seems like more he's something
that he's not going to trade Maxie. But the way you opted they're trading
max Yeah, that's what I think. So that's I think they're keeping that
door open. Chable. I'm ofthe I'm of the belief and I hope
I'm wrong because I like Maxi alot that there's a ceiling on him.
I think he hit and I don'tknow if he's hit it yet, but

(16:14):
he's not gonna ever be a defensiveBut and there's a lot of guys in
this league that aren't ever gonna bedefensive players. I get it, James
Harden, but Maxie is only goingto be a twenty twenty one point score.
That's great, but you really needhim to be that twenty five,
twenty six kind of point score.And I'm just not sure. And if
they wind up giving him a matchor whatever, the deal that he's gonna
get the money right, and thenyou might be sitting here a year or

(16:37):
two haf then and it's a shamebecause he's your third best player. Yeah,
you're asking him too more than hecan because of the situation. And
the Sixers are in. Yeah,I think they needed to be the second
yea if yeah, yeah, evanklyyes. If you told, if you
told anybody when they drafted him,he's gonna be a twenty point score,
you'd be like, oh my god, I'll take that an art. But
he's been great. It's just Idon't I don't know how much more he

(16:59):
can do his game exactly, reallygood at what he does right now,
but good athlete. That is agreat maybe come in, could maybe look
at what he did with VanVleet.Van Biley did great under it now and
Vansley became a better passer under NickNurse as well. And that's something Maxi
just doesn't have it. He doesn'tsee he might be a little more hard
nosed than Maxie too. Van Fleetjust looks like a guy's water is just

(17:23):
a smaller, lighter guy than vanFleet. Van Flee looks it looks a
little. He's not quite the samebody like. He looks a little like
Jamir Nelson. V Yes, justhe just best stop, tough guy.
But to answer your question, I'mI'm curious and interested to see what the
new strategy and look is gonna bewith Nick Nurse. Sure, but at
the end of the day, theteam is just not good enough now.

(17:45):
I think there's that. I don'tsee anything that change. Yeah, it's
gonna be fun to see a newlook on the court, but until you
get the players, it's just aultimately gonna end up the same way.
How do you think you've seen enoughin Nick or whatever? I mean,
how do you think he's going useand beat well? I mean, that's
another interesting thing because I think thatthey're wasting him out by the nail all

(18:07):
the time. I don't have aproblem with him being out there some or
even much of the time the game. He can't be there all, especially
when there's five minutes left and you'reup. We've mentioned it, because you
lose any chance of an offensive reboundand foul and getting foul because you're not
getting fouled shooting jump shots. SoI think that that's just a I mean,
that's just an obvious thing that needsto happen late in games. You

(18:30):
don't want to be taken lower percentageshots. It just doesn't make DOC couldn't
get him to do that. Imay, I don't know. I don't
know the answer to that, Mike. I you know, I just know
what I hear about his work,habits and when he shows up and and
it's clear that he's not all in. He just isn't. So he thinks
he is, but he isn't.But you said that one hundred times.

(18:51):
Yeah, he thinks he's a winner. He thinks he's this. He thinks
and the guy just won the MVPin the scoring time. I'm not going
to sit here him and knock,But I think I estly have that last
exact thing, and they get youwhen you promise. You look at Jonas,
Okay, the white guy who can'tplay in Denver, right because he's
a white guy. Okay, he'sgot it. You look at those guys,
Kwhi, Leonard the year in twothousand and nineteen. Now he's been

(19:15):
hurt. Yeah, I get it. Even kay D has it, you
know now he's been hurt too.Steph Harry has it. Yea, there
got their Draymond Green has it.He's not the same talent, but he's
he's a guy. Now I'm notsure to Tam has it. Yeah,
I think he I think he does, think he does, but he's he's
but he's gotten away farther than he'sand he's what twenty four, twenty five?

(19:37):
Yeah, and yeah, he's gottenhim. And he's been in the
Eastern finals, he's been in theNBA finals, and he's had big games
and big moments. Were never it'sthat, you're right, it's the last
like five percent that you if youwere Boston, I just don't think it.
Would you think had a lot ofchances just not show would you think
about and I don't even know Damefor Jalen Brown some sort of feel that

(19:59):
way. I think that's happening becauseI don't think they're gonna sign jail.
They're signing. They're gonna sign onehundred percent. So they're gonna have the
two guys for five hundred million orwhatever they're sign Okay, I mean,
why would you not sign? Yeah, I know you got a chance to
win multiple NBA. I just wonderingwhy there there is big when is in
his last year coming up the show. But well, yeah, they're they're

(20:22):
doing it there. But I thinkI think they are. I know there
has been sort of fractures with thatrelationship with Brown of the Celtics, but
I think it's fine. It's themoney, Yeah, yeah, it's great
once he gets the money. Andthe fact that they you're asking why they
hadn't him the contract yet. Yeah, there there may be he might be
who knows, he might be upto something. Brad Stevens is up to
something because they've lost two rotation playersand he went for Porzingen. That that's

(20:42):
a bit of a it's a bitof a gamble if look if he plays
like he didn't wash it, andthat's fine, and Miami let Vincent go
right, he was. He waslike with the Lakers, really good,
Vincent's gonna be well. I thinkthey for the Laker. I think they
think they're getting a little bit.I think that right. I mean,
is it that you have to think? So if he's Bruce has gone,

(21:03):
Vincent's gone, and yeah, yougotta think they're saving all their all their
money for for the one guy.Uh So, Rick will have some games
coming up. We got the JohnDeere Classic and the Quad Cities this week.
Mike Kern gave us a great picklast week, Morakawa came from way
behind eight hunder in the final round, had a put on eighteen to win,
it just missed, and then helost and in the playoffs. To

(21:30):
look, Dick said, tells meit's all the time. It was the
right place because he was six anda half. But I told you guys,
I thought Ricky. Yeah, Rickywas a great story. He's a
great person. He's great for thePGA tour, very religious. I remember
that when from covering him in thetwo thousand and nine Walker Cup. I
guess it wasn't married. So itwas a popular win. And Colin's a

(21:51):
great I mean, look Colin's good. But for the tour, it was
probably good that Ricky won um whenhe hit he shot to two feet or
something. I already had some greatshots coming down to stretch Ricky. Yeah,
he was out of the rougher.So Ricky was. He was hacking
it around a little late. Andthen on seventeen he missed like three or
four birdie putts late makeable inside tenfeet, and then on eighteen he needed

(22:14):
a birdie to tie just to getin the playoffs and needed an unbelievable right
there. And then then in theplayoff Hale uh Maracao missed by this much
of hitting a perfect iron shot.It was gonna roll back and uh oh,
that's the one you told me.Yeah, and then you just missed
on eighteen. In the regulation itwould have been over. And I guess
Hadwin played good. He was good, but yeah, Ricky wanted with and

(22:38):
it was a perfect setup, Mike. On the playoff, Hale, Hadwin
had to put two feet longer thanRicky's on the exact same one, so
he got a chance to look atit. You give these pros a chance
to look at it, they're not. So I will ask you this,
So the l i V is playingthis week in London. Does anybody nowhere
Carey Smith in the league? Yeah? Who cares? But I mean no,

(22:59):
no, But they're playing the JohnDeer with a lot of nobodies,
and everybody knows they're playing the Johndid And I don't know what's going to
happen. I don't know if there'sgonna be an l I V Tour next
year. I guess there is fromwhat they're saying. I don't think,
Dana. They may not even beable to pull this off because Congress might
step in and say, now youain't doing this um, which would throw
everything back to where it was.But and then you had the women playing

(23:22):
at Pebble Beach. Yeah, andhere's I had all these rose. Look
at the first day or second days, looking the top ten players, I
didn't recognize one in the women womenis not in the top well at the
time, she was not in thetop ten. And this is what's wrong
with women's got And it's no nobody'sfault. It is nobody's fault that most

(23:45):
of the great players happened to beforeign players or Asian players. But my
god, it's like tennis in thatway. For sure, that's been the
men's problem. The women's side isalways is good, but the men's side
ever, Oh, I gotta beright now the top seed for the American
style, well not because Tiao is, but the other guy, Paul is
losing. Yeah, it's good.Rosang is an American from Stanford. That

(24:07):
will be helpful when the Americans havelost the other day. Then he was
nine seed and he blew a twozero set lead. I can't remember.
Yeah, yeah, something I don't. I can't remember was it was it
though? I think it was theless time than American won a Grand Slam
title, Andy Roddick. I thinkit's two thousand and four or five.
I mean, of course, we'relike ninety percent of have been won by

(24:30):
one of three guys, right right, But that but I haven't I haven't
play. Yeah, Wimbledon, Yeah, um, Djokovic. Obviously, I'm
gonna take the Spanish guy like he'splus he's good. I'll take a shot
plus three. He's probably gonna playYokovic. I get you right, by
the way, Andy Roddick in twothousand and three, three Open, twenty

(24:52):
years, twenty years. But yeah, Federer and Nadal and Djokovic, have
won everything but had of eighty grants, lambs, they probably won what,
oh sixty, No, it's morethan that. Well, no, it's
it's over sixties. So it's inthe sixties, right because they each have
twenty hasn't won one in like,but I think about before Andy Roddick,

(25:14):
you had um Samprus Sua. See, I'm probably leaving some guys out.
Well then John Mca before that,Connor Jimmy, Oh yeah, I mean
the Americans were long time and noweven with the window Serena she was the
women's side, was always good withthat. I always Serena always like Venus

(25:36):
better I did. I always becauseshe was so gracious. I always thought
when Serena was younger, especially andshe lost a couple of times, she
just seemed like she was a littlesnotty. She was young. Well you
know, no, she was.No she Siger Woods. She wanted to
win. She didn't yet, That'sexactly right. She does have a little
like Novac joke or when when thingsstart to go, it's just starting those

(25:56):
people or those people I know exactlythough it Tiger who I was watching something
You're a night on tiger Back.How it's downfall. The reason he was
Tiger and Phil was Phil. They'reboth great. Phil one six times,
that's Nick Founder, it's Phil hadthat. You know, I'm not saying
here Tiger just wanted to kill you. He he had Kobe, I want
to cut your bar down, MichaelJordan, those guys, yes, um,

(26:21):
And that's what separates those guys fromI was waiting. You had to
say that, you how to godown, say that. I just had
to do it. So we're gonnahave Mike Kern's pick at the John Dereck
Classic. He's been on fire forYou're gonna gonna Pick's gonna come out of
left field. I think that's right. Left field is five field, just
as long as it's a pick whereI have some baseball picks called up I

(26:41):
have. I have home run derbyodds here. Oh, next Tuesday in
Seattle, Peter Alonzo back trying towin it for the third time. Uh.
He is plus two fifty. Heis the favorite. But they do
it a little different now, right. You have matchups like early on,
I got some of the matchups too, the Rushman versus Louise Robert whoever he

(27:03):
is? Do you know? Yes? Uh? He is the White Sox.
Ye Robert is minus two sixty five. But those are the individual matchups,
and as we've been doing for thelast few weeks, Eagles. In
the final segment, we have weeksone and two training camp starts in a
couple of weeks now only we're lateJuly getting those tweets. He just had

(27:25):
a great catch that. Yeah,yeah, that's big, that's big.
So we'll discuss week one and weektwo again as we do every week,
and see where we are on theEagles. Uh, Phillies and Marlins today
at four and we have uh it'sNola tomorrow, it's the lefty us today

(27:48):
today. Yeah, so and againsttwo guys I've never heard of. The
Marlins were twenty one in five inone run games and before last night that
at some point, at some point, we'll catch up with you here.
That's oh, for sure, mostnot sustainable anticipated Eagles season since when,
oh, for probably when they gott and they got t O. Yeah.

(28:11):
Yeah, the next year, Ithink there was a lot well no
TiO was going through the Yeah,that was that was when everything started to
think about that. It's but almostI mean this team toornimately, this is
I think this should probably more anticipatedthan even the season after they won the
Super Bowl, because I think everybodyunderstood that an older one year one year
well yeah, because you also CarsonWentz was still coming back from major entree,

(28:33):
which was late in the year,right nobody, Yeah, nobody's going
to happen with him. Yeah,so there we go. People are going
to be going nuts, which isyou know, I mean, and then
the Phillies. We could be goingnuts about the Phillies again. Okay,

Karn, John Janson, Kyle nota maker and yeah, Mike Karn just
came up. What's this game called, John? So it's called the Immaculate
Grid. Basically, um, it'llbe a three by three grid with teams
on it and then some circumstances likethis one has a twenty plus win season
and when they intersect, you haveto guests like this example Pittsburgh, a

(32:36):
guy that played for Pittsburgh and Oaklandin their career and Mike Karn and only
one percent of the people knew that, yea yeah, I certainly did not
know that it was not the popularguests. Apparently, Well, what he's
more works for is the barbecue placeat the stadium, and like he has
Greg Lozinski as the barbecue and youused to be Yeah, I don't know,

(32:58):
and it was very good. Ineed a twenty game winner for the
athletics. I knew that it's easy. There's a ton of them. Catfish
hunter, catfish hunter blue, that'swhat I guess by the blue. And
I already took Barry zero on theGiant Giants. That's right. I didn't
think it. Barry Zedo, that'sa great Giants and a twenty eight.

(33:20):
I'm not sure you won games forthem. I'm not stealing that one.
One year, four and one year. It's hard to believe. Nineteen seventy
one had four twenty game winners anddid not win the World Series lost to
the Pittsburgh Pirates. Verto Clemente puton the show of shows that year.
So, uh, Mike Kern,I think we're gonna go to year now

(33:44):
for the John Dear Classic in theQuad Cities. And this is obviously the
most anticipated part of the show becauseeverybody is last week. This used to
be played the week before the Britishbut now they the Scottish Open next week.
And in two thousand and five ShownO'Hara won this tournament and he got

(34:07):
him into the British Open. SoI you know, I had to track
him down at the Newark Airport,but it was cool and you were still
stuck at the Nework airport. Anyway, they had to get him. He
didn't have a passport. They hadto go get him a passport, like
in about twenty minutes. Yeah,now would take you two years. Good
luck for him. Cam Young,who's a really good young player. He's

(34:27):
thirteen under Adam Shank Is, elevenunder Gary Kigo, who I have no
ideas, eleven under Brendan Todd who'swon four times I believe on the PJA,
but not since nineteen. I knowthe name played with me in a
pro am in Mississippi, Way.I was the am here. I didn't

(34:50):
play for we did. What wereyou doing in Mississippi? It was one
of those fan junket yes, ofcourse, but the spot was when we
were done at the end of theday, they send us into a Nike
ten. We got to spend likefive hundred dollars man. It was great.
So Brendan's eleven. Now here's here'sand and remember last week I told
you Ludvig Adberg he was a reallygood European amateur and he fell off.

(35:16):
He's ten on him back again,he's back in it again. Dennis McCarthy,
uh uh posted. I can't rememberhis first name. He won it
last year. He's seven post jatpost jot. Yeah, and he's ninety
to one, which at seven underwhich I'm not gonna play. I'm going

(35:37):
all right, here we got thisis Swede. Last week we talked about
him, all right, cam Youngis probably gonna be tough to beat butt
And I almost went with Brendon becauseI like Brendon because I played. But
we're gonna go with Ludwig and elevento one Beethoven. Brendon is also ludwigot.

(36:00):
But Brendan Todd. If I didn'tgo with Ludwig got with a woman
Brendon um. So anyway, he'snot a serious play. It's serious,
serious doss. This is my money. British Open two weeks the British Royal
Liverpool, where Tigger will not beattendants. And we even heard a word

(36:28):
a peep out of him since themost recent operation. And you won't that's
it. Just so he keeps outthere unless he goes the Lords or something,
and you know he's his gift.Us was that nineteen Mass and he
was still like, if I'm convincedthat that car accident hadn't happened, he's
still had a shot. He's beatingout. He still went in the tournament

(36:51):
and maybe a major, but thatwas that was the last that was almost
lost. So how old was hethat he was forty four or forty five?
He was still he was very stillplaying. He was he knew he
was gonna win a major going intothe Masters. He was heading in the
right direction. Had me won theAtlanta at the Torch, had well the
year before he won the Torch Championshipand almost and for the second the PGA

(37:14):
to Brooks kept her. He wasbut everybody he was the third betting favorite
at that Masters. Everbody said,oh, that was like Michelson win.
The PJ said, no, Michelsonwas like seventy five to one. He
hadn't he hadn't finished in the topten in the Tiger, was in good
four wasn't a shot and he wonthere, and he's won a few times.
That was one of his I sawa lot of I still say the
two thousand and eight US Open onthe one leg that was I'm sorry.

(37:37):
But when he went to the Mastersthat year in nineteen and out thought everybody.
He just stayed there for three daysfor them to start dropping, and
just exactly four people hit the ballin the water on twelve and he didn't.
He birded it. No, no, put it on in two parts
birdie thirteen, birdie fifth, thetwo part fives. And he just sat

(37:59):
there and said, and then sixteenhe made that incredible approach shot, they'll
get another birdie, right, andthen you could and then you could take
a five on eighteen because it didn'tmatter, right, Tiger. So a
little wig von Beethoven and the quadCities anyway, if he went, let
me just say this, Yeah,if he wins, If he wins,
I'm stopping pick that's it. Andthen if you get Beethoven home, I'm

(38:23):
gonna say that actually a bit muchva because even the one I would also
I would also throw a little somethingon Todd only because he played with me
in a pro am. Yes,what he's also eleven. Yes, they
get I'm sorry, you can betbet them both. Yeah, win,
it's a good cat. You haveinsider info. And then we yeah,

(38:45):
and then we got he just sawTodd playing that day because it was so
I guess it was the day beforethe tourment started and Sean O'Hara was there.
We tried to get in his groupand he it's a pick them thing.
You go to this barty and youpick so were you even doing there?
It was a trip we went downthere and that was part of the
trip. Where in Mississippi was itUM Jackson. It was the tournament they

(39:06):
have down there, the UM Ican't remember the name of. It's played
in the fall usually, but wedidn't go after open now. It was
like something Sanderson Farms, I thinkit's called. And he gets with us
and all he's doing that. Hewas such a nice guy. He's trying
to work on his game and andyou know, get ready for the tournament.
And I think he finished like twounder because we didn't help him at

(39:30):
all. We stunk. Who yougot a couple of your boys are yeah,
Well, my one friend went withto meet the guy that picked me
up at the airport and the twoother guys they stunk. And I wasn't
playing well. I wasn't playing wellthat that I was. I think I
was in all playing in front ofBrendon. But he was great. Yeah,
and then he played well in thetournament and then the US Open in

(39:52):
twenty fourteen. Yea, they mightbe playing. They might be playing together
actually, but there less Open intwenty fourteen at Pinehurst, Brendan Todd after
like two rounds was like a strokertwo out of the lead. Now what
up? He came in. Helooked at me like like, who are

(40:12):
you? Yeah, now he was. He was. He's a very very
nice guy. I remember Brendan turnedthe hips. Turned the hips. Here's
the other critical part of the program, John Jansen's baseball picks. Uh Giant.
Yeah, and the one sounds crazythat I'm about to do because Cincinnati
is such an anomaly that their pitchingstaff might literally be the worst starting pitching

(40:35):
staff in baseball. And yet thisguy in the month of June by the
name of Luke Weaver. In themonth of June, he had a ten
point two ninety guess how many gamesthat they won out of the five games
that he pitched them, every singleone of them with ten with a ten
point two round. How many ringsthey run support he got, which is

(40:58):
good. Nine runs again the Dodgers, five against Kansas City, which was
the lowest, nine runs against Houston, eleven runs against Atlanta, eleven runs
against Baltimore. The good thing ishis last start he pitched well. Today
they're playing Milwaukee and that team.Now I don't like Milwaukee either because I
hate their lineup. I think theirlineup is absolutely terrible. Um, I

(41:21):
think just taking the Reds as anunderdog with the way that they're playing isn't
a bad move. Again that yourun into the risk of you're betting,
you know, a short odds ona picture that has a ten point you're
betting on them the score ten runs, which they've done at just an alarming
question because I used to I likethis guy a lot. What happened to
Christian Yellow? He was one ofmy favorite players. Yeah, that's just

(41:45):
one of those baseball things. Acouple of a couple, you know,
Bellion years, Yeah, Bellinger too, jury too, he did, but
it wasn't he just got bad.He just wasn't good. He was like
for a couple of years or hewas one of the best players he was.
He was so good in that spanthat it was better than Mike Trout
and people thought he might have beenbetter than Mike Trout. Well, the

(42:05):
year he won the MVP, healmost won the triple. Yeah, there
were conversations like that happening. Butyou know, maybe it's a little thing
like Ryan Howard, you know hewas being compared to Albert Poles because of
how great it wasn't the span,but you could just lose it. Yeah,
absolutely you can because in the NFL, as long as you have your
athleticism and you're still a good athlete, you're going to keep getting better.
And quarterbacks keep getting better as theyage. Because Tom Brady wasn't good when

(42:28):
he started. He was probably betterin forty when he was forty than he
wasn't like twenty two. But it'sbaseball's different, you know. The guy's
just I don't know if it's moreof a mental thing and it gets in
their head after a few years orwhatever the case may be. But yeah,
it's it's hard to play at thathigh level. And Christian Yellis can't.
The other one, I like,I'll just real quick the Phillies,
plus time because we talked about thegame already, plus one o two on

(42:52):
the money line for the Phillies.I think Rachel Suarez to back Ranger as
a slight underdog so into a Athirteen game when you okay, no,
I mean, I sure those arethings you do think about, because when
I don't like chasing winning streets orchasing a losing streak, that should end.
And they would say that team ifthey win this right, yeah they
was they just tied it, Yeah, they just got yesterday. Wow.

(43:14):
But I believe Rangers worth that much. I think he's that good of a
picture. I got one after DickNo, no, you go next.
And also because practice Garrett is alefty. Ends now Christian Pocci is going
to be in the lineup, andPotch has been really good. I don't
be honest with that. I don'tlike the regular center fielder. He irritates
me. Bradon Marsh, I hateto wait plays center field. It plays
like a whim. Yeah, Imean you know, he refuses, He

(43:37):
refuses to take control of the situationwhen he has a guy in left field
who does happen a lot. Hedoesn't want to catch the ball. I
scared him getting run over. ButSchubert is not going to run you over
because he's not gonna get there.So just go catch it. And he
just I don't does get He justgets out at the place the way.
The guy that traded him for itis hitting like a wholemmoniac having a great

(43:59):
year. It happens finally, butit's like that picture that went to the
rage. It wasn't going to happenhere. Yeah, sometimes they were never
The thing is any center field,any center field should take control of every
threat. But when you have Schwarberhas been good in right field, but
he doesn't have range, you shouldbe taking for manager should say to the

(44:20):
center fielder, just catch. Whenthe ball is hit, you go get
it. And that's It's very simple. If it's not hit right at Shore
Verde, even if it is right, yeah, exactly, question Kyle,
go ahead, what do you gotum? I'm looking at Atlanta Tampa Bay.
Initially I thought, wow, Ican get Tampa Bay a plus money.

(44:44):
But then I thought, on theother side of the spectrum, wow
I can get Atlanta and Spencer Striderat minus one forty. That so Tampa
Bay is on a six game skinbad. They've averaged two and a half
runs in that span. Um,I think Atlanta keeps it roll. And
here I'm gonna take them on therun line minus one five home home.

(45:05):
I'm sorry, money line, it'sin Tampa. It's in Tampa. Yeah.
I think Tampa maybe can steal onein game three right before the break.
But I think this is a twentythree and seven? Is that?
And the Braves have been better?Correct? Yeah, that's amazing. Yeah,
going for their sixtieth today. Sixtyyeah, sixty yeah before they all

(45:29):
star brek Hello. But you know, the same thing happened last year they
won the division? What they no, but they came from behind the Mets.
The Mets game from a head bothone hundred games, right, Yeah,
the Mets went from ahead to behindthem. They gag. Yes.
By the way, the Mets,I think it won five streets. They're
undefeated in July and twenty games rightnow, six game winning streets. Yeah,

(45:50):
they're doing they're doing well. Andby the way, since that,
since our break, it was atminus one forty three, it's up to
minus one forty eight. I thinkI'm going to keep going on. People
were they heard I heard you popon it. Now they got on the
bet Parks app and knocked that.So you don't think that is that weird
to me that the Brave I knowthe Braves has been great, but they're
at Tampa that they're laying almost onefifty to a team that was pretty good

(46:13):
until like five days. And thenthey're also rolling out a picture that a
twenty two year old that's got almosta seventy r A. You gotta think
the whole world has been betting onthe Braves for months now, right,
I mean, think about if somebody, somebody'd been betting on the like for
the last nobody needs not like rightthe road. It's amazing, not like

(46:35):
their minus two hundred and all thesegames either. No, they were plus
in every game in Tampa. Ihear it. So you could have bet
them just the next series and youwould have made some pretty much change.
My boys down I ninety five haveheated up again. They won three in
a row. They're at target Fieldtoday, my Orioles great pitching target Field
twins twins. I don't I usedto know every stage the names of even

(46:59):
classic names of really good pitching matchupTyler Wells, Sonny Gray, Orioles are
a slight dog in the game.I will take the Orioles. Minnesota's always
a team that that they overachieve untilthey under a chap, which they always
find right now, that's their biggestproblem. And they're pitching's great and Sonny
Grays he picks really well against Baltimore. That was his last start. He

(47:20):
went six innings and just gave uptwo hits. They want, I'm open.
They won last night next ratings threeto one. The Orioles score two
in the top of the tenth towin it. But yeah, I automatically
root for teams like the Orioles.That's just me. Spend no money all
these teams in baseball. We allknow who they are. Yeah, So
if the Pittsburgh gets real good,I root for Pittsburgh. If I will

(47:42):
root for the Orioles, and Iget it, if they make the playoffs,
will probably lose to somebody in thewhatever. But Tampa, I'm rooting
for that team. They aren't closingon Tampa. Yeah ball. If Tampa
keeps losing six in a row,yeah, Pace Bowls fascinating because just when
you think you got it figured out, it changes you know, and somebody
team. Can you imagine you're SanDiego and you spend all that money and

(48:05):
you're sitting there like five games underfive hundred UM and the Mets the owner
went nuts. Um, It's justamazing. You can't. History is shown,
it happens. Sometimes you can't buychampionships. The Yankees have been the
one World Series it's two thousand andthree. Think of it that they've been
good most years. They don't stay. I mean it certainly helps, but

(48:27):
no, you need homegrown players.Because the Yankees can spend all the money
they want. But the real reasonwhy they're great is because of Aaron Jude.
The one thing you can't do isnot spend money and win a championship.
You have no chance. All theRoyals dude once yeah, I mean,
I'm just saying they are circumstances.Because even the Phillies, I would
say early on in that World Seriesrun in two thousand and eight, I

(48:51):
don't remember them spending a ton ofmoney, but they had their foundation,
guys young, The guys all madethe money. Though, yes they all
day does eventually making money. Right, Teams that won free did they spend
a lot of money? I don'tmean not insane amount not insane. I
would say they would be around.They were middle drafted. Yeah, they
had a lot of young players.The catcher was one of their guys.

(49:12):
Yeah, the pitcher who won allthe big games was one of their.
Had a great bullpen one or twoand will say won they were They were
just bringing guys out, especially theteam and I think fourteen team at fourteen
or twelve they won ten, twelve, fourteen, um, their bullpen was.
They won the three championships that Phillieswere supposed to be winning. Yeah.

(49:32):
Remember the Cody Ross here, Sure, no, I don't want to
remember. Actually actually did. Theyplayed Atlanta in the series before they played
the Phillies for the National League Championshipthe year after. It was the track
at the time time frame was tenten. Yeah. They Phillies had lost
in the Yankees the year before inthe World Series, and they were clearly
the better team and the favorite onpaper. And I remember the last I

(49:54):
was in the Giants locker room afterthey won, and I just said,
yeah, wait, you think you'regoing against the Phillies. We're pretty good
too. Turned out that turned outthey were right. I didn't I didn't
like. I thought they had noshot and they that was the beginning of
their run where they where they wentthree, twelve and fourteen and five five
years Bomb Gardner, they beat thethey beat the Royals and fourteen, Ye,

(50:15):
that's when he came in and pitchedlike five innings of relief for something
or whatever. Hell he come still, Yeah, but I think he was
I think probably on the downside ofhis Jim Winscom is really goody for but
he Wilson. Wilson wasn't on thatfourteen team. I think he was done
by was done by that the bigbeer he was. He was the guy

(50:36):
that struck out Ryan Howard on thatpitch. He was he froze Ryan Howard
on that I didn't even remember that. Oh yeah he was. He was
a great pitcher, Okay. Andthen and then what the Philly guy was
on that team, Burrow, Butthey did a commercial him and Wilson did
some kind of whacko that Burrow wason the Giants team that won that.
I knew he went to the Giantsand hence was on there right one of
those teams, and then the Cardinalsone and my boy berries you know,

(51:00):
he only h the Barry Zido Show. All right, So when we come
back, we're gonna do some seriousNBA slash Sixers slash free agency, like
what in the hell is going on? Uh? And we're gonna try to
see if we can come up withan answer. There are people, were
not among them who thinks that thepresident and general manager is up to something.

(51:22):
I think he's up to nothing,is my opinion. But we'll see.
Howard Eskin put out a thing todaysaying basically he should be fired.
Well, he didn't say he's anidiot. He said he's a scam.
That that was a front. Yeah, well, which is probably more accurate
than being an idiot. I'm notgoing to say he doesn't know anything,

(51:42):
don't I don't know. Look,he drafted Maxie, great job. Oh
he put together some fee. Yeahyou're talking about Howard apparently. No,
I don't know if it's true ornot. He'd only boom with the six
Ers for like ten days at thatpoint. All right. He gave the
credit to Elton Brand because he saidthat Elton had scouted the guy. Like
you've said all along, if therehad been Nancy Double Tournament that year,
there's no way Max I'm gonna givethem all the credit in the world because

(52:07):
that was a wonderful pick at twentytwo or yep wherever. Now, they
certainly one of the best players ofthat draft. But I all, I
mean, Lucky, you put togethersome good teams in Houston, not quite
good enough because they were up againstthe Golden State and there's there's great teams
out there. They just weren't asgood as as good as they were.
But really here, I mean,I don't I don't see it. He

(52:29):
just keeps springing in guys from Houston. I feel like the chambers empty with
him, like every every every moviecould make everything that he thought would work.
Yeah, I mean, and toa certain extent, they've been great.
You know, they have been good. Became player and you know they
were five minutes in Game six awayfrom making it to an Easter Conference final.
Ye. But yeah, there's there'sjust I think he's done as much

(52:51):
as he can and I don't thinkthere's a move here that he has.
Yeah, and I think Lucky Hardenwas his last move there was, so
there was nothing else to do.And they're not good enough unfortunately, another
a year old or another. Butagain, you go we go back to
the I think they were this close. And again we might not have thought
they would have won the next roundor a round after that. I don't

(53:13):
notice, but they should have beatenthe Celtics. Get none of us.
I didn't think they weren't beat theCeltics. I don't know. They tried.
The Celtics are trying to give themthe exact, give him the series,
and they wouldn't. God bless himhard and won two games for him.
He in game five they played theirbest game. Game five, they
were they were really really good.And in game six they were five flipping
minutes away and they get and theygagged it off and that the total gag

(53:37):
and then they and then they justgave up in game seven. I mean
that was pathetic. That was pathetic. In all right, we're gonna get
to a break. We're an hourin. We got an hour to go.

I'm gonna look it up just becauseGodwin, hold on, all right,
Mike's gonna look that up while he'slooking at uh uh Kyle. I know
you're a huge Sixers supporter. You'vealways get this slot. As we are

(57:07):
now a weekend of free agency,and the Sixers have Charles Grodon, Charles
Groden, have lost the Yang,they loss and have lost the guy McDaniels,
McDaniels, they lost Shake Milton Shake. Milton McDaniels was shake too.
It's not like they've contract Harold andthey have signed Patrick Beverley, and they

(57:31):
keep Melton too. Melton under contractorhe was already under contract. So am
I missing? Are those the movesthat up to moment have been made hard
sybel still on the team. Henot, No, you actually just got
a three year, thirty three milliondollars defensive wizard. I guess not anymore.
He's not good now an unusable basketball. Well, he just got thirty

(57:53):
three millions. I don't know whatthey liked Sixers rejects. Grant just got
all them. So is that likeus taking Houston rejects. I don't know
what. I'm a little confused throughwhat's going on up there. But I
don't under I don't understand what ifyou have any clue, I don't have

(58:14):
a clue. I don't think anybodyhas a clue. I don't even think
the Sixers have a clue. ButI don't understand why you let McDaniels go.
He's young, he gives it,gives you a spark off the bench.
He had playoff minutes um, decentplayoff minutes um. Because they like
old guy. Yeah, and thenyou go ahead and keep who did they
trade for him? They traded um? They signed Mo Bomba also, yeah,

(58:37):
yeah, big sign high up sideguy in a sixth year, it's
still high up side. Yeah,Oh my guy, Why am I blanket
on who they trade for? It, but by then you could have kept
him for the same money that youkept Montrese Harold, who had zero playoff
minutes when it mattered, and he'solder and you know he can't play defense.
McDaniels was like, a he's justlike a spark plugs. He's like

(59:00):
a wing guy too, like morelike, yeah, so that's what you
want. Yeah, you don't wantthe Montrese Harrod. Yeah, Montrese Harrold's
just gonna get your points in thepaint, play no defense. McDaniels gives
you a little bit of everything.And he's a couple of years younger.
I thought McDaniels just would have gottenbetter the more he played. Yeah,
so let me say this. Theysigned two backup centers and they have what

(59:22):
do we know about Paul Ree?Is he coming back? They want to
and I think they're all signs appointingthem to doing it for centers in the
league that doesn't value centers. It'sbrilliant. Yeah, it's like that's remember
he would draft the new center everyyears. Just let that one guy,
pretty good guy, go um uma R. Why can't I think of

(59:45):
his name? Not Smart? Theytraded Smart, but then the other guy.
Um, gosh, number twelve,I think he's him. Let him
go, and everybody's like, whywould you let him go? I'm an
idiot too. It was McDaniels forthy Ball, So they gave up the
Thiball here's the sixers. So nowthey have neither of them. Yeah,
so they are being held hostage,but they got as they were two years

(01:00:06):
ago. Yeah, they were heldhostage by a guy who wasn't playing.
The only difference with Harden is he'sgonna play. They trade at the hostage
for a new hostage. Well,the difference is Montres Harold played for Houston
at one point that nothing can happenwith this team until you figure out hard
and you might not figure that outtill the trade deadline. Yeah, we're
gonna put up with that a wholeyear. Again, you might go,

(01:00:29):
yeah, and then I think Imentioned this last week disc you can't keep
doing this. And then if theytrade him at the deadline, get some
pieces back second round exit, thenit's gonna be well, wait till they
get a full year under their belt, and then they'll get a full year
under their belt, get knocked outin the second. It's a want to
know what happened to all the moneythat Houston was Supposedly this is a travesty.

(01:00:52):
His agent went out planted that crapyep, and that's all back at
Christmas and the idiot writers and theykept writing it and I'm sitting there,
why is Houston which is a rebuildingmode and you're getting all these young guys
want to give him four years oftwo hundred million. They went and gave
forty three million year to Fred VanFlied. Nobody wants to give James Harden

(01:01:15):
any money at his age. Hejust led the leg An Assists for crying
out loud average any game, andthey still don't want to give them.
They rather pay Dylan Brooks twenty milliona year. Dylan Brooks man James Dylan
Brooks, who a lot of peoplethought it was gonna be playing overseas this
year. It looked like he gotthree years. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

(01:01:37):
it's just a it's a fiasco andwe're just we're just do you have
any answers for what's going on?Well? I I think they won in
desperately on Damian Lillard. I meanthat's it. Everything set up, you
know, Hardened because Hardened five otherteams, But the Sixers are probably on
at least a shorter list of teamsthat Damian Lillard would want to go to.

(01:02:00):
But I don't think Damian Lillard isdesperate to want to go here.
Honestly, I just don't think hewants to go anywhere but Miam. But
everything the Sixers can do because itmakes sense because you would fit with Joel.
You know, the Sixers have enoughpieces that if they get on a
three country they can get it.But because it's probably gonna be a three
way trader or one hundred, whatwould the Sixers be given up? Besides

(01:02:20):
Max Maxi's gotta go. There's noway to would have to go, okay,
but James Harden would be involved alsohurt people this week. Tell me
you can't trade Maxie. It's likeit's like when they were going to get
the pitcher Um holiday in this.You can't give up. Can't give up
Kyle Drade, Actually you can.But if they give up, what would
happen with Hardening? It's Harden stillgonna be here now, No hard you

(01:02:45):
would both got I even think toentice a deal more because you you're almost
gonna I think change your whole rosteraround. If it's a three team deal,
you're probably gonna get Damian Lillard andanother player if because you're probably gonna
have to get rid of to biasHarris, I would imagine too. I'm
gonna make bold prediction. Yeah,they're Damian Lillard and beat or not winning
the championship. And anybody that thinksthose two with a bunch of other parts,

(01:03:07):
they're not winning. But people willsit there today, Let's get Dame
Lord. You're telling me the biasmight not be here. Maxie wouldn't be
here and Harden would be out onthe core, assuming for that to happen.
But people think, but here's thementality. If we get Dame Lillard,
we can win the title. Youcan't win with Damon EmpId. You

(01:03:29):
need more than that. Phoenix,Phoenix couldn't get out of the second round
players Dallas had Dallas had you knowdone and and what's his name? They
went south? Yeah, they wentbackwards. Phoenix Irvy Ain'tix arguably had the
best shooting guard the league and thebest small forward in the league. Put
Dame on this team instead of Hardened. Yeah, that team could make a

(01:03:52):
running the title, but that ain'tnobody in Philadelphia thinks this through. They
don't grasp it. They're just like, we're gonna get game, okay.
And because and because if their recentmoves, they can't afford to give up
you know, picks, because theydon't have any. They have no so
it has to be players. That'swhy I would imagine they would have to
sweeten a deal up for three teamswith also Maxi and Harris just hey,

(01:04:14):
can I get Haliburton? Oh no, he just signed it. Haliburton.
He'll not giving up the backup center, give up giving up one less draft.
I think they were. They wouldhave got Harrison Barnes too, and
that dude, that was the rumor. Yeah, I come on man and
he but he went. But neitherof those players played for Houston Mica.

(01:04:35):
They did not play in Houston.And some Barns playing Houston at some point
it did Golden stick. It wasit was their three man on their first
title too. Yeah. Then hegot moved out for Durant. And when
the Durant thing, which kind ofunderstand because Durant's pretty good. Well,
if more he's still here in fiveyears, then if he's here in five

(01:04:56):
years, that we'll have We'll haveDylan Brooks in a couple of years.
You have absentee ownership. They haveno idea that's right, that's right a
football team, and watch that's fora hockey team in New Jersey. They're
catching money in New York and theydon't. And they're leaving this guy out
like he's some genius that he's gonnafigure it out, and he's not,
and they're Adam moves. Harden wasthe last move that I always felt like

(01:05:19):
that it wasn't good and it almostworked. It never work, you know
what I'm saying now, I don'tknow what you're saying. They were with
a watch seven playoff games. You'reright, but they you're right. I
don't want to hear it back.That almost didn't you're right. But then
and the next shoot, it's gonnadrop. Its gonna be Joe's gonna walk

(01:05:41):
in and say I want to andthat's and then it all Then you're back
and you have no draft ficks.Then you know what you do. At
that point, you rehire Sam Mickeyand you start it all over again.
Almost John will be his number oneassistant. John always loved the process.
You can't have a process with nodraft fis and it seems like planned beef
of the Sixers by the way,because this it's starting to heat up,

(01:06:02):
the rumors and stuff like that.But Zach Lavine, the Sixers have been
kind of checking him. All yeah, fine, which that makes sense.
What does Chicago want for Zach Laviniathat? I don't know what MAXI because
everybody wants this, and our guySean Bernardi does a lot of Sixer stuff
for us. Um he put togetherlike a fourteen trade of Miami, And
that's probably what's gonna happen is theSixers, the Bulls, you know,

(01:06:24):
Miami, Portland, They're all goingto be in this big long trade if
any of this is because Miami can'tdo any Miami doesn't have anything to trade
other than Tyler Hero, So Miami'sgoing to need these teams to keep enticing
deals. And I just think onceit does happen, which I think there
might be a good chance it does, it's gonna be a huge three team,

(01:06:44):
four team, blockbuster type deals.I am too. I like Zach,
but can he be your number twoguys? Yeah. What I'm saying
is when we're looking at the teamchip without Maxie. Right, If Maxie's
going and Harden's going, you haveZach ling here with Tobia, I think
hard. I don't know if Maxiwould be gone. If they get okay,
I think they would be still.I think Tobias has gone and probably

(01:07:06):
James Hard. But you still don'thave a point guard. You can't win
in this league. Would have apoint guard would be a problem, and
they don't seem to crash that concept. I mean, Ben was their point
guard. I get it he would, but I know it's not for a
lack of trying. The way Ithought of something last night, have Ben
to the Spurs with Brett Brown.He actually played pretty well for Brett Brown.

(01:07:30):
He did right. The Australian relationshipwould be like there. But yeah,
yeah, the Australia connection. IfI's career um with a lot of
size, he's got a lot ofrehab him, it might explain he's gotta
be he's gotta get on the courtfirst. It might be beyond repair,

(01:07:53):
absolutely, and that's where he needsto go somewhere. Even if you got
his head on a little bit right, he still wasn't shooting the ball.
He still doesn't want to go tofouln So immediately three games into his thing,
Scotty Brooks is gonna start fouling himat the end of the game,
and he's gonna go back to beScotty Brooks start the whole thing. God
plus Scotty Brooks. But why somebodydidn't think of that before that? And

(01:08:15):
I have no clue. But again, Ben is never changing though those two
parts. Can he play point andhandle the ball and get a pass to
somebody and dunk the ball? Sere? He can? You can do that?
You know you can't play in theNBA. Does you are a ball
handler and don't want to go tofoul one? And does he want to
play? Is the big question,because he does he even care? I

(01:08:38):
don't know. He's still want thenets, Frosty. They have not waived
him. I wish I could havean interview with mcaal. I wish I
could talk to mcal Hey, mccam, what's up with Ben? Yeah?
You getting along with Ben up there? Probably never never played with Well imagine
he probably hasn't seen him around much. You're right, he's probably in his
mansion in La right, or hewants to be traded. McCall. We

(01:09:00):
had him, and we traded himfor that flipping sire, You kidding me?
Thirteen points off the bench against thesixers in the state. Drafted this,
Yeah, I know. He's onthe Summer League on Memphis is Summer
League teams tenth pit. They didsomething correct, they took him. Everybody
was thrilled. An hour later,now you're gone, and now Thunder and

(01:09:28):
the french Son went to Lower MerionHigh School right down the street for Villanova.
It's not that hard. He's gonnago. I'm sure they let him
in the skilne kill us. Nota superstar, He's exactly what you won
in the NBA. He's a sixeight nine guy. I don't know if
I call himself, but he iscertainly a very good NBA rights, Yes,
that's exactly what he is. Buthe is what the NBA is.

(01:09:50):
If you have three of those guyson your team or two, you've got
a fighting chance. He can guardyou, he can make shots, he
can go to the base. It'sfree. What else do I want?
Not much? And he's a goodguy. And he's a great, great
locker room guy, great guy tohave on your team. All those villain
ouver guys are why you thinking Nick'sgot three of them. Yeah, they

(01:10:11):
got stupid. And they looked aroundthere. Their their president's a guy from
South Jersey. He knows what's goingon around there. They got they got
Worldwide West up there, man,I mean, he knows, they know
the deal. They got Ricky,Yeah, man, they got Mike's favorite
former tuple player, Rick Bruns,he used to be. At one point,
I really land a falling out,yeah, over Mike. Mike wrote

(01:10:33):
the truth and Rick wasn't happy aboutthem, which will happened on occasion.
And the kids, I told youto stop doing that. I told you
stop writing. And the kid Jailand never wondered once ever brought it up,
ever, whatever, even though I'msure his dad was telling you he
was. He was great good.So Jaalen, I have nothing but great
things to say about Jail and Brounzehand playing great good. And then Rick

(01:10:55):
and even Ricky, Ricky I hada great relationship. And it was one
thing that he got all upset aboutthat had nothing to do with nothing,
and it was his fault to beginwith. They didn't even have to get
mentioned. But that's okay, that'sokay. And then he went to can
then and got them on probation andwhatever. But you know what, now
he's got a great gig, hiskids making a hundred million dollars. I'm

(01:11:16):
using the reason jail and his jailand a lot of it has to do
with Ricky and his mom. Absolutely, the mom instilled in him things.
Also, she was a great athlete. But Ricky Brunson taught his kid tough
love or whatever. That Sports Illustratedstory was awesome and and jail and is
one of the way he plays,never flustered, just stays within himself.

(01:11:39):
And he had a great I neverthought he would be this good name for
him. I thought he'd be reallygood. I thought he would have the
kind of careers dad had beat therefor ten years. Never hurt your team
now and then, or you're gonnamake an All Star team. If the
raid he's gone, Oh my god, I mean he's the best player in
the next He's probably underpaid. YeahI don't know about that, but he's

(01:11:59):
still But I'm will you sign thiscontract to no? No, no,
no no. The money's being thrownaround, all right. So that's that's
the story in your Philadelphia seventy sixers. Uh having a great offseason through
the draft. I thought they didwell in the draft. I thought it
was one of their best drafts inyears. Didn't make a single mistake in
the draft, and they're doing wellin free agency so far. I think

(01:12:21):
they've changed the equation in the Eastat this point. But we're all we're
going to save the best for last, John, We're doing our Eagles segment
coming in. Yes, each weekwe get a little closer to training camp.
Uh, Jail and Hurts and someof the teammates were in Hawaii for

(01:12:41):
my lot as winning. Yeah,he was already. Letter was saying,
man, he can, he cansay he can. S like fake stuff
there. My man was pretty good. So they're getting ready and we're getting
ready and h the excitement level isgoing to be through through the already.
Yeah, forget through the roof.Beyond that, if they lose a Week
one, well yeah, but ifthey start one and four, they're not

(01:13:04):
going to lose a Week one.They can lose that game. I don't
think so. I don't think soeither, John. But that's not a
game where you just sit there,Tom Brady, New England, that roster
I am not. I'm just tellingyou that it's sacks. You're right,
You're right, Lady will come outof retirement in the second. Lose that

(01:13:30):
game, Belichick's would have two monthsto get ready for the as a loser.
He's a bump. How is howis he done with that break?
That's what Belichick's biggest fault is He'snow the GM and he has no idea
how to build a team. Hecan't draft. He's a great because they
end up still winning a good amountof games with a terrible roster. But

(01:13:50):
he's the reason why they have aterrible such as such a good drafter that
he drafted Tom Brady in round six, you know, stuck out a stage
to thirty one. Other teams didn'tdrafted me. The Eagles. We're gonna
take it with the next pick.But I think it's gonna be very difficult
for New England to set Its gonnabe very they would have traded them.

(01:14:15):
Have looked like, we sit herelike two months before I get it.
This is what we do. Theygot five new starters on defense, and
like three of them are kids.They might stink in Week one. They
might come out and be grind sacks. The new field that can actually be
rushed the Wagland. Patriots just signedre signed a wide receiver that had the

(01:14:35):
worst separation rate in the NFL.Not separated. I think New England's gonna
finish fourth in that division. Theythat's but one thirty one to four Eagles.
One place will be nuts up there. They will not be nuts.
So all be on Cape Cut.They're not. They haven't come back yet.

(01:14:57):
They we gets over Dave, Dave, Tommy, our boy, Tommy's
coming home. We seeing Bailey's happyin the in the second half, no
question, and that haven't been said. They might win thirty eight nothing.
I'm just one. I hate tolook at any game. I mean the
Lions game last year when they openedup they got the script control one to
three. You didn't hear any more. I'm just saying it. Just want

(01:15:21):
one and four years we get toI'll give BILLI Tech's defense a little credit.
I'll say, like twenty seven beforewe get to the break thirty three
home run derby odds. There wego, Petlazo plus two fifty. I'm
fading them because UIs Lewis, RobertLewis, Robert I always say that Robert
Robert plus five fifty A Dallas Garcia, who is hequaling for Texas plus six

(01:15:47):
hundred. Mookie bets it, Yeah, movie having a great Yesterday plus a
thousand. Vlad Guerrera the second choiceof plus folios plus fifty. Randy A
Rosa Rainer from Tampa Bay at plusone thousand, and I can't believe.
The longest shot is my man AdlaiRushman, who's changing the world in Baltimore

(01:16:13):
at plus fifteen hundred. Yeah,I think that's underrating Rutsman's power a little
bit, all right, you know, I know he's he's probably not gonna
hit a ton of home runs.You got buddy, Junior Seattle's Where is
that a home run hitters place oris it? I'm not funk at the
stadium. I don't think it's likeYankee Stadium, right, But I never

(01:16:35):
I never bet there was one yeartotal home runs over two seventy nine point
five over run. Longest home runfour ninety point five. Give me the
four four ninety point five. Youdon't know that's pretty long, dude.

(01:16:58):
In the home run, you're tellingme somebody's putting in a fight. You're
telling me somebody's gonna have a five. Yeah, No, you're not buying.
I'm taking now there's gonna be twoabout one of them is going no,
no, I'm taking it. Well. The thing is, because it's
now you goes the shorter those homeruns. Yeah. The thing is you
might be right though, because nowit's a time based event. It's not

(01:17:19):
that you get ten ounce, it'stime. So I don't think right guys,
guys, I don't think they're tryingto hit as hard. They're just
trying to hit it hard enough toget out. You might be right,
was like four sixty right, yeah, but four nineties a little pull man.
These guys that do the bet parksstupid, they're putting one point.

(01:17:40):
I like the guy Pure they gottraded from the Yankees to Yeah, and
he was like a high j andhe won and he had like these high
But I don't know if these guys, I won't even know. Yeah,
I don't know half these guys either. I used to be really all All
Stars where I know a few ofthem, but I don't follow it like
you do. Rossman. I knowVlad and Mookie Rodriguez, and Riguez a

(01:18:02):
Seattle's player, and Julio Julio Rodriguez. Yeah, he's there starting maybe there's
like four I don't plus five fifty. I think they might be giving him
juice baseballs. Yeah, I mean, is Alonzo really that much of a
favorite? Did he win one twice? He's won twice. Yeah, he's
really because he takes because he takesit too serious. The ball travels a

(01:18:26):
little bit. Did they hit afour ninety foot course? I'll bet you
they didn't. They hit it fiveninety. I don't know if I've hu
is like like an old time post. That's Freggie Jackson in Detroit, Ryan
Howard, Ryan whatever. The BritishTony can do that easier. I wonder
if Shoe would have gotten into saidhe got gotten the blister on this.
I think he was, oh pooHoole's coming back, no show. I

(01:18:50):

Can I say something before we getinto football. It's it's like a mini

(01:22:13):
ranchas voicing. I know this ismore displeasure. I see people on Twitter
talking about the Phillies and saying,you know, this team's special, this
team's different. They're not special.They're on a decent run. There's still
the third wild card team. Whatis special about this team? They're just

(01:22:33):
hot. In the middle of Julyabout your manager of the yard day said
that they're a slugging team, Like, yeah, yeah, they're They're They're
fun to watch right now. Amonth ago we were talking about how they're
lost. Now they're a special team. They're different. You know who's a
special team, Atlanta? Who's gonnahave six wins before the deadline? Don't

(01:22:55):
tell me the third wild card team'sdifferent special. Okay, so you are
absolutely right, and I understand that. But the Phillies, now that they
are starting to look like themselves again, they do have what is them no
qualities Maselves. Are you coming aboutOctober last year or you're talking about the
whole year last year. I'm talkingabout like second half of June last year.

(01:23:16):
No, no, no, no, no no no. They were
good in June they were good.And then first or September. The first
two weeks they stunk, yes,and then but it was teams doing good
stretches. We're the Pirates special inthe first two months. These Phillies are
capable and have Phillies. They gotgreat pitching. Now we never they did

(01:23:40):
great pitching, but they I wouldsay, I think the Phillies are nationally
contended. I think that is.Yes, they're They're a playoff cont They're
not special because of what happened lastOctober. That's why people were feeling this
way. And I understand for sure, because it's it's almost the exact same
thing, beat for beat of whathappened. Yes, you guys, a
question records essentially the same Harper bythe way, Painter's not going to pitch

(01:24:03):
this year now, okay, andthat's fine. I have no problem.
I don't want to screw him up. Harper is not should not play Harper
should not play in the field thisyear, But that's okay. They might
do that. Yeah, would youthink about batting him leadoff? Yeah?
Why not? Because he's not hittingfor power, but he does get on

(01:24:23):
basis swinging a good bat. Whynot make him the leadoff? Because this
team's special. You don't switch anyman. You're you're you're special lead Okay?
Would you bad Harper? Second?I don't know. Well, they're
they're one dude batters on base percent, which is not good. I just
I just think a team that isnine games over five hundred is not special.

(01:24:46):
That's a terrific ramp and one hundredpercent accurate. Couldn't agree more.
They're fun to watch right now becausethey're fun. It's enjoyable. But yeah,
they have a lot of holes onthis spot. Just they're a terrible
defensive. They're different. They're astupid team on the basis Yep, they're
not. Can't argue that either.Here's another do have great pitching? They
have? They have the qualities ofa team that can make that because that's

(01:25:10):
fun, because it is so waitold, this guy starts doing this.
Guy said, wait a minute,might not ever I not I agree with
first of all, because Harper's powermight not ever come back. And even
talking about har One All Star,it's like Ria Molto is gonna be hit
in three fifty. Maybe this iswho he is and he's great. I
mean, he's one of the bestcatchers in baseball. Um, other guys.
There's other guys on this team.Well, Trady Turner, I know,

(01:25:32):
Trade Turner's going all of a suddenbecome trade turn Yeah, he's been
really good. Harper hasn't hit ahome run since last November. I like
the San Diego game, Scott.Scott's been tremendous. Stot's been really good.
And I don't what I'm to do. What the Phillies have been doing.
They've been very fun. But let'slike pump the brakes on. We

(01:25:54):
don't second base good and I feelgood. I heard base. I agree
with everything else. Agree you centerfield. I don't like Yeah, I
wanted to like him. Yeah,I don't like him, and I don't
like the whole After the game,every game, we gotta pour water on
the game. What is this rightaway? I like it? Kudos the
Castellanos and again I hope the tradetrade turner was the best player on the

(01:26:19):
American team in that World clas Somaybe whatever. Castellanos took all the heat
last year and came back this yearand did exactly what he said. And
I give him all these looks goingto the All Star Game and you should
sho Yeah, how do we getinto this? We're talking how you want?
Yeah, yeah, that's before weget to the You got anybody at

(01:26:43):
tennis followed tennis? Yeah? CanI ask one questions for I've never unders
you're a tennis player, They throwyou a second ball and you put it
in your pocket. Yeah. WhyWhy do I want to play tennis Royan
at full speed trying to be Federerwith a ball in my pocket? Yeah?
Or am I missing the point?I hate having my wallet in my
pocket. A lot of the playersdo not, no, my big fat

(01:27:05):
wall, A lot of them donot want the ball in their pocket,
but they won't get a second balland they stick. Yeah, but they
we're doing it since there were fiveshow I think they just got get used
to it. So you don't thinkrunning with a ball in your pockets harder
than not running with a ball.Maybe if you're wearing jeans, but you
know, yeah, maybe I wouldn'tbe I wouldn't be thinking about it.
I'd be too involved in the try. That's such an awesome point, my

(01:27:29):
man. That's why he's here.That's why he's here for sure, because
when I first really got into ten, I mean would stakes ten golf balls
and sticking nose. I know I'mgonna share, my poet. My pockets
had to be completely empty while I'mguy. I make sure when I go
up to the tea, I makesure the ball having extra ball. Yeah,

(01:27:49):
my pot, just because a handfulof teas, a few golf balls.
There's just nothing worse than hitting abad shot and having to go back
to your bag or having your moneyanyway, anybody got one day. It's
July eight. We're waiting for September. The Seventh WAYNS camp start Thursday night,

(01:28:10):
July twenty seven. A couple ofweeks, Yeah, three weeks?
Can you wait that long? Ican. I'll be all right till September.
From what I heard, No,ta's this team's special September, that
Detroit Special your favorite team getting sevenat Kansas City. That's John Spat of
the Week. I do he loves. I think it's gonna be a high

(01:28:33):
scoring who are horrible covering team lestthey happen for long. They won the
Super Well because they're trying to coversprints of a touchdown or more every single
game. It's tough here is Ican tell you now this is stealing money.
The Eagles are minus five against theEngland in the game. They will
win thirty one. To go forit, John, I'll see you later.

(01:28:57):
I'm going over to see I mean, that's that is a bet that
I've You guys are probably right,But I'm just saying it's it's the NFL.
It's it's just because New England doesn'thave the And now good thing is
Bill O'Brien's there. Bill O'Brian definitelycan make a better offense than whatever Mapetrician
Week two or three r I theEagles. There's no way. I'm just
saying because it's week week one,goofy start. The Eagles were beating Detroit

(01:29:20):
by like twenty eight last year andit came down to like a final possession.
Yeah, and now he's Detroit thatwas the beginning of seeing Detroit being
a pretty good team that well,not to take a backdoor. No,
I don't know. You guys mightbe right. It might be thirty one
three. I have no idea inNew England's is they don't have those two
ding dongs? Is their offensive orders? Yeah, the quarterbacks should be better.

(01:29:42):
They might have the they might havethe wide receiver by the or the
running back that I mean, there'srumors that they might go there. I
don't know. I just think NewEngland's going and Tom Brady Knight thirty one
thirty one if they get DeAndre Hopkins, that's thirty one five one five two
good for a safe team. SoEagles in general over under on wins Kyle,

(01:30:06):
as as you're looking it up,is it's like eleven and a half?
Is it Stow eleven and a half? Yeah? I think so.
Um yeah, I can just doublechi. So we're talking twelve and five
to get there. I think that'sa good number because I think they're going
to be about a twelve win team. I will take the over in fact
eleven and a half plus money onthe over eleven and eleven and a half.

(01:30:27):
It's sixty six to one on anyteam going twenty an out and I'm
taking the Eagles. Yeah, it'sit's just funny because they I've been seeing
compared not buying it twenty and Idon't buy it with any I almost want
twenty year. Yeah, but theschedule this year is in last. I
don't care about what I do becauseI don't care who they're playing, where
they're playing them, or when they'replaying. They're only lass is going to

(01:30:50):
be to Sam how they're going twentyand up, even though maybe maybe same
how it might be better than that. Would you agree they're going twenty and
no? I would say a coupleof losses, which you say sixty six
to one is the right press itonly happened. I think I think they'd
be higher. Yeah, I thinkit should be too, probably should just
on general. Did come close lastyear and it's not even twenty. They

(01:31:13):
were talking las you only need youjust need to go regular, Yeah,
just regular? Even they to winthe Super Bowl? Nope, six double
my bet double it. Take allthe money I'm making on thirty and you
parlay your your minus five week one, and That's what I'm doing. They
won't even go six and O inthe division. That's what I'm doing.
Um, No, don't they neverdo No, don't lose a game.

(01:31:38):
It's it's tough too. Yeah,it's very tough. They always have a
stinker. Washington and Dallas. Idon't know. Some somebody will beat them.
They will not go. I thinkWashington's going to be better. Still
are they still? They still haveGarrett Gilbert Garrett Gilbert, Sam how for
in Washington. Yeah, samme formerquarterback for North Carolina Carolina. So we

(01:32:00):
have a quarterback from North Carolina anda quarterback from Duke in the division.
Correct, that's a little weird tosay. Yeah, I mean good for
mac Brown because he's probably gonna haveanother quarterback drafted really high in Drake may
next supposed to be pretty good andthey'd so. Sam Howell I'm not the
biggest fan of I just don't thinkhe's accurate enough and consistently good enough.

(01:32:23):
On Yeah, um whom Taylor Heinekeywas terrible? He gone about. Actually,
Jacoby Percent is the backup in Washington. Percent did a pretty good year
when he was starting out of theleague. Washington does have really good wide

(01:32:46):
receivers. I love John Dotson andTerry mclard. They have Eric b Enemy
who's gonna have This isn't gonna beyour typical Ron Rivera type offense. This
is gonna have a few wrinkles toit. That is modern NFL. I
got a question, does he atmy home? I don't think, No,
he doesn't. I think he's still. I think he's gonna be a
good offensive coach. I think Ithink they're gonna be some creative ideas that

(01:33:08):
are going to help Washington. Ithink is the really talented on offense.
And if and if their defense stayshealthy and Chase Young especially stays healthy.
They have a new owner of theSixers guy, so he'll screwy Eagles,
the Bills, the Jets, andthe Chiefs. Well that's I'm just telling
you. If they don't win everygame, team and that may be good

(01:33:32):
enough to win to beat the numberone seed in the NFC. I don't
know, Jason, can you canyou get just save this thing? A
yeah? Jeremy says, I wasright. Last It is funny to see
the Eagles roster compared to Machines overnine. That was like sal and so
in Temple and so when you dothat, though, the Eagles have two

(01:33:54):
position groups that are that are clearlybehind um and if that's running back in
linebacker. But the thing is runningback. I don't think it's money.
The two starters in the Super Bowlthat started the first week that will not
I will never again. Yeah,And I'm not even saying Hurts is going
to get I'm just saying the schedulestougher. It's in fact, it's much
tougher. It's the toughest schedule inthe NFL, I believe, if and

(01:34:16):
then the whole team and yeah,well that's all IF on them. I
just want to be the number oneseed if possible. And nobody's won the
division back to back years in twodecades. That means nothing, but it's
but it's the It's there. Dallas. Are they still in the league,
Yeah, Dallas, Dallas, justnot when it comes to the playoffs.
Coach is clueless, owners clue.I think Mike McCarthy might be fired during

(01:34:41):
the years. He should be firedduring the exhibition season, I mean preseason
games he probably should have been shouldbe gone, he should be he should
have been fired before the season.He should be gone. After that Niners
game. I think the offense couldcould plummet this year. I think it
really could. Uncha Yeah, yeah, who's the offensive corder? Is he
Schottenheimer? I think what the wholething is. They don't want him throw

(01:35:01):
twelve interceptions again, I mean hewas still training, he was, and
I think that was more on him. But I don't think that that is
indicative of the player either. Ithink it was just a bad year.
Yeah, I like that a lot. I mean, I think they're gonna
win twelve games or eleven or two. The schedules in the NFC East are
all tough, but the Dallas doeshave every year they did. But when
you get to the playoffs and thenit's like, okay, yeah, nobody,

(01:35:24):
I just think this is this isfinally the year. You know,
that's not as no in fact,but that's so true that yeah, yeah,
they are Joel Prescott process, SamHanky's running the gall Boys. Nobody's
sign yet, right, Who's who'sthe Jerry Jones figure? Though? For

(01:35:45):
the Sixers, Doc McCarthy was alsoa great that that is a great comparison,
and I always like that interesting interest. Yeah, I thought they're more
simple before Kellen Moore did the Chargerslove the Charger. See what he does
with that Dackers, they're they're theweirdest team in the league. Yeah,
they lose games that they have somuch talent. I think Denver is going

(01:36:06):
to be better year, but he'sjust no mistake that when Kelly Moore took
over the offense, the passing wise, it blew up. I mean their
their numbers were inflated to I meanDed Prescott before that ankle injury that year.
I think his first five games hehad over four hundred yards in every
single game at least had over threehundred yards in every game. So,
I mean he has this high poweredpassing offense and you do it. I

(01:36:28):
just feel like justin Herbert was goodwith Lombardi, who was the offensive coordinator
in Los Angeles. But I justthink Moore opens it up so much for
Herbert that he's on the ball.McCarthy. Power's coming off an injury like
Betty like, and their tight endsgone. He was good. Yeah,
I mean I can't remember, don'tknow where he was sho. He's pretty

(01:36:48):
good, dolt. I know theydid lose the tight end. Yeah,
I can't remember it all the stuff. Right, So you mentioned Eagles running
Houston he didn't have to move forward. Eagles running backs, why are they
not going to be at least asgood as last year? That's why that's
the surprising thing I'm seeing when Swiftbreaking down the Eagles roster because the Eagles

(01:37:11):
be better, because they were comparinghim to San Francisco and obviously Christian mcafe
running back. But you know,to talk about the Eagles running back room
like it's not good. Ra SeanPenny when healthy is great. DeAndre Swift
when healthy is really good. Nowobviously Hellier comes into it, but Scott
is good. He's played how manyyears in the NFL? He's played five
years? How many times has hebeen? Certainly? Absolutely, but John,

(01:37:32):
you can't say like I get withDeAndre Swift is a little different because
he has Swift. He's played fourteengames to say, well, guy's been
hurt for four years. But ifhe's not hurt this year, hey,
no kid, He's also not goingto be the workhorse, right well,
Swift look Swift as Swift could Swiftcould be. Penny's gonna be a situational
running back. I think Swift Israeland he's a great pass catching back.
Like I think it's just that you'reright about Penny's injury history, that it

(01:37:56):
could play a part here. Butit's just the fact that you have him
now and that there is and youhave de Andre. The phrase it healthy
because he's never been healthy. It'slike me saying, well, Phil Wallen's
ankles aren't like tapioca. It's thebest center in the league. I mean
I was waiting for a tampio.I get what you're saying. And and
and again. You have ten togo in most two hours for the hurts

(01:38:17):
your backfield, which makes everybody betteruntil he gets hurt. Nobody has figured
out that defended and your boy Belichickhas been sitting there for six months and
trying to figure it out. Hewon't figure you know what's gonna happen.
His team's gonna get bludgeoned. Heymight the offensive line will just abuse those
bozos in New England. He mightthirty one to three. Have I made

(01:38:38):
myself clear. Job every week inthe NFL, there's two or three games
you sit there and going all thetime, how that time. I'm just
saying, it's week one and he'sgiven some night every and that's why maybe
Tom he's gonna be there. He'sgonna be there with Kim Kardashian on his
shame. Don't have a new wayon a Rosser twelve. It's like Billy

(01:39:00):
Martin coming to have a roster.We have a roster change. It's gonna
be like Burt Reynolds coming back inand it'll be like John Seen a surprise
entering. Mac Jones has to bebetter just he will be bill O'.
He does have a functional offense.Yet, isn't that guy in the Eagles
now? Is it Patricius an assistant? Yeah, I can get defensive,

(01:39:21):
I think, in the same rolethat I think Vic Fangio was. I
guess there was some course of supervisorsthey wanted to bring because he did not
get along with Darius Slay and sayI said, all right, I can
deal with this. He said,you gave me how much money he can
play? So yeah, he'll bethere. He'll work it out about that.
Yeah, they'll change everything. Allright. Boys, We're gone fast,

(01:39:43):
two thirty and seventeen sixty six toone. I like that. I'm
taking sixty six to one. I'mgone right over bet to parlay right now,
