Speaker 2 (00:48):
Nae telling me you. Petrosen Money A five seventy LA
Sports Live everywhere on the iHeart Radio app. Making our
way toward five fifty five exactly. It is a six
twenty five pm tip UCLA Utah State. They need a
full thirty minute pregame, which means we will be off
(01:09):
the air. Crunched a little at five fifty five for
NCAA tournament action. Gonzaga has already won BYU, has already won,
Creighton victorious, and perhaps our favorite McNee McNeice has knocked
off number five Clemson. Clark Kellogg joined US yesterday and
predicted Clemson would be in the National Championship game.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Is he even on right now or did he just
leave CBS's task in shame.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I'm sure he is shutting down all of his social
accounts for the next two weeks.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Well, Matt, we're crunched down a little. We got three
things Thursday coming up next, so let's get to it.
The word of the day, his.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Words, the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Well, now we got to follow up, Matt. We got
an Instagram direct message from the lady that called out
Pantone and their grifting ways. Oh we did, yes, Carrie,
Carrie Thornton, Yes we do. And I'm going to read
you the message right now. If you don't know, there's
(02:09):
a club that is a Dodger tangential club. It's just
this guy and just kind of the way they are.
Like the day Kobe died, they tried to sell T shirts.
That's sort of the Pantone vibe they had. They put
up that terrible billboard in Boston.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Oh, they took a banner in there into Yankee Stadium
and they covered a whole section, very cringe.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
The kids would say, and they take advantage of people.
You know, people give them money thinking that they're like
giving money to the Dodgers and they're not. You're giving
money to a guy named Alex and he went out
to Tokyo and got his grift on. And here is
the text or the direct message the DM. I think
the kids call.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yeah. She posted it on Facebook and it went viral.
Got to read it. That's how we found it.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
She sent this to us. I'm Carrie Thornton, the one
who was scammed by Pantone. I just want to clarify
a few things. We traveled to Japan for the Tokyo
series and we're lucky enough to attend the Dodgers versus
hat Geen Tiger's game at the Tokyo Dome. Unfortunately, I
didn't do my due diligence before purchasing, and I've seen
(03:18):
so many others sharing similar bad experiences. For context, the
watch party tickets were seventy five dollars per person and
we had a group of five for two nights. We
chose not to go back for the second night. I
appreciate everyone spreading the word, your awareness is likely why
Alex had to apologize on Pantone's Instagram, but if he
(03:40):
truly cared, he would have refunded people instead of ignoring them.
Lesson learned carry Thorne. Yeah, Carrie, thank you Carrie.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Well we appreciate the details and further in the story.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, it was seventy five bucks apiece to get scammed
by the pantone guy. Right.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Two nights, five people left early the first night, didn't
even go back the second night. Each person wasted one
hundred and fifty bucks.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Hey guys, this is Alex. My sincerely is apologize to
those that purchased tickets to the watch party at Genie's
and just we weren't able to get in with any
best layout plan. Things just changed unexpectedly and we were
able to coordinate with staffing, had a name list with
the venue and we spoke to management.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
They gave you where was he though during the party
behind home plate at the game.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Okay, continue firm that they were able to handle the
watch party. Unfortunately, we receive an overwhelmingly amount of people
show up to the venue that traveled to Japan, and
unfortunately just the staffing was they were unprepared. I've worked
with the venue, really spoke to them on the phone.
We have a venue for tonight, different process in place.
So for those with purchase tickets, make sure to check
(04:50):
in out the main entrance and we'll have you with
the confirmation email and we'll have your tickets ready to
go in the watch parties also, so please know there
is no walkings and if you don't have to get
to the watch party, we're not gonna be a comin right.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Thank you a whole, I thank you a whole. And boys,
don't give that guy your money. You could be a
Dodger fan without giving that guy your money.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Come on, please, you want to go to the Frommers
or the trip Advisor, anything and find a venue to
go watch the game. Great, anything but that guy. Guys,
anything but that guy.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Please the best laid out plans. Please don't give the
grift of your money.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
And this is all found on Reddit originally right Matt.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
On Tuesday, Reddit posted Terry's Facebook carry posted it on Facebook.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Reddit got a hold of it. We furthered it, We
furthered it. Alex apologized. We don't accept the apology. Pantone
is not a good deal for you. The Dodger fan
would be accepted.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
Sounds like it's more than just carry That was you.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Know most definitely.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Stop giving them your money.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
May it be their last event?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
What about the one at the shortstop for opening day?
Come on?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
What about the now going on? That was the best part.
I knew that guy was it frod when I saw
him with.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
All right, it's time of the number of the day.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Here's my number.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Number of the day.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Number of the day is one half, as in one
half of one pound.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
I'm not ashamed to say it. Why would I be?
We are your quick serve show of record. I hit
up fast food restaurants occasionally, time crunch, coming home a
little late. You got young kids, got young kids hungry.
Preston's a big fan of the Del Taco, so we'll
hit that one up.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
McDonald's has been taking some incoming those maybe not paying attention,
and it seems like it's the fast food joint that
we frequent the least.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Right.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
McDonald's has a population. I think, you know, it's like
you got some Taco bell people, you got some Dell.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
McDonald's still has got a pretty long, a long list
of customers.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Man, I guess I'm thinking like in our circle. Well,
like you know Carls Junior yet taco. Yeah, I mean,
don't try to act like you know me? And is
that matter to tell me? Are you?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Are you? Mcal saying people might come home with some
McDonald's and when they're when they're done, I might like
a hobo. I might grift around the room like like
Alex from Pantone and just pick up on the dodger
scraps off the table.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Hey, they ate the McChicken, but this lettuce mao como
was quite tasty.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
It's just I understand it's not it's not celebrated like
the like the star of the West, Carls Junior.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They uh, well, McDonald's has been taking some incoming. They're
searching for answers the app you know, as like free
fry Fridays and the five dollars meal. Now they've decided
it as opposed to you know, finding budgetary items to
try to get you to come in, they may just
import a foreign good that has become quite the sensation
(08:12):
to our northern neighbors. And you tell me if this
might get you back to McDonald's for a taste test.
The Big Arch, Canada based incredibly popular. Big Arch very
well might be arriving here in the US sooner than
(08:32):
later because of its success. Two quarter pound patties, three
slices of white cheese, crispy onions like little mini onion rings. Oh,
let's go, slivered onions, pickles, lettuce, big arch sauce, all sandwich.
You guessed it between a sesame and poppy seed? Bun
(08:58):
fi man, Yeah, all am, you and me both big
Arch tastes, Big Arch tate. May it make its way
across the border to a McDonald's near you. Apparently this
is something they say is being fast tracked, so keep
your eyes and your noses open.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
It sounds like it sounds glorious.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Right, It's like a big Mac, only nine thousand times better.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
It sounds like a double quarter pounder with the onion slivers.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Right, yeah, pretty great.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Sounds great to me.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Let's put the pressure on. Let's put the pressure on McDonald's.
Petros had a stroke, so he looks so happy when
he had it. He really loved that double quarter pounder.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
The big Art felt like I was sliding down the
big Saint Louis Arch at the end there. All right, Ronnie,
this is the song of the day.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
When You're Hot, You're Hot is our song of the day.
Bring the great singer, song writer, musician and actor Jerry
Reid with a tune that was atop the Country chart,
reaching number one in nineteen seventy one, and the currency
groove for your Thursday Afternoon where the Petrosen Money Show
is on a quest for almost three hours of.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Gray eight sports talk.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
Running all the games is what we're doing, and today
we'll pass it to UCLA and Utah State, who tip
off at the NCAA tournament. That begins with Josh Lewin
and Tracy Murray bringing you that good Bruins pregame show
that starts at five point fifty five.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Indeed it does.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Thank you, Ronnie, you're hot, You're hot, You're hot. Bringing
red Bow you, Oh red Bow you this fancy green
folder full of plays. You better give me this folder.
What thing's gonna get real physical in here. We'll be
right back with the three things Thursday, Ladies and gentlemen.
(11:06):
It's cracking everybody. It's pent you some money on m
five seventy LA Sports happy to be with you. They're
calling it scam tone now man on all the threads
in set a pantone.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Oh scam tone. That's good, that works like that, So
I'll play on word.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
We're gonna talk about Utah State UCLA coming up. We've
got quick Hits, fun Fact and a Dead and Alive
and then we're gonna get you to the game. But
right now, and don't forget the podcast whatever you've missed.
We've been on all week, not that long, but up
we've been on podcasts. Is show on the iHeartRadio app
for your smartphone or stream of line. This sounds good.
(11:44):
You get the little green bag that way. But right
now it's time for the top story of the day,
which is three Things Thursday.
Speaker 7 (11:51):
It three thingsters counterprogramming, counterprogramming, counterprogramming, counter programming.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
As opposed to all the McNeese around this, that's all
we care about it. Let this be our counterprogramming Wooded
Island in the lagoon of.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
McNeice, exactly right. Three Things Thursday. P We start yesterday.
Rule changes were announced. Submitted by teams to the NFL's
Competition Committee must be approved by twenty four of the
thirty two teams in order for them to pass. Typically,
it is twenty four of thirty one teams because unless
(12:38):
it's a rule that somehow manages to take a shot
at the Commissioner's office or NFL leadership. The Raiders are
going to abstain. They will vote yes on those that
will make the commissioner look like a fool. Otherwise they
typically abstain.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
That's the Al Davis way, that's the L.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Davis way. So sort of twenty four out of thirty one,
you're never going to get a yes vote from the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Detroit very busy. They got two by Detroit amends Rule eight,
section four to eliminate an automatic first down as a
penalty imposed for defensive holding and illegal contact. We all
know pass interference is a spot file could be three
(13:22):
yards in a first down could be fifty five yards
and a first down. The other illegal contact and defensive
holding is five yards and an automatic first down. I
believe they'd like to see that amended to some sort
of yard, as they believe it is too punitive. I
would suspect it will fail miserly.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Thoughts. Uh, yeah, you know, I don't like you know,
you get a past interference on the one and you're
down on the one. But also they'll foul if they
feel like that's not going to happen, and you're only
going to get fifteen yards, and they'll say the fifteen
yards is better than here, and hail to the Redskins,
you know or you know WHOEVER'SPI song it is.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I think of all the fight songs, that is the
one that is no love to the command woos.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
So yeah, I get those are my thoughts.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Second, and typically, well I shouldn't say typically oftentimes, know
that there is an agenda with these. This one from
Green Bay, Oh for real, a Men's Rule twelve, section one.
This is the prohibiting an offensive player from pushing a
teammate who was lined up directly behind the snapper and
(14:34):
receives the snap immediately at the snap. This is the
banning of the tush push. And ironically, I believe this
would qualify as irony even though we equate the tush
push with Philadelphia's Super Bowl champions, they're the ones that
do it best. Green Bay ran to play more than
any other team in football. So no, this is Green
(14:57):
Bay's way of sharing that players do not like this play.
Players do not like defending this play. Offensive linemen do
not like being asked to execute this play. But they
are football players and they don't like the way it
would come off if they were to say that publicly,
so they just go along with it. And this is
Green Bay's way likely of currying favor with their players
(15:19):
who don't like it.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I didn't like running the inside zone very much, you know,
but I should ask if they could a ban it.
I could couldn't tell us to stop running it. Yes,
they got a hard time reading this. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
The offensive and defensive linemen say, that's a lot of
strength and power and pushing and on different surfaces.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Just draft the guys from Air Force. Yeah, they do
it pretty.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Well by Philadelphia A Men's Rule sixteen Section one to
align the postseason. Now, this is an interesting one because
this is a shift and what has long been held
and driven by you for a long while. And I
do believe this has a chance to pass. Rule sixteen,
(16:03):
Section one to align the postseason in regular season overtime
rules by granting both teams an opportunity to possess the
ball regardless of the outcome of the first possession, subject
to a fifteen minute overtime period. In the regular season,
now overtime has been ten minutes and you know, you
get a possession if the other team only scores a
(16:24):
field goal, but not if we score a touchdown. This
would change it to full fifteen minutes. And this would
change it to even if they score a touchdown, you
still getting possession.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I like that, so, but think about how much this
has changed, because what did you always say? Why this
would never happen.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
They're trying hard to squeeze it into the three hour windows.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
So they can get too primetime.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
So that yeah, that just it's a ratings thing.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
And now guess what's happened. Nothing rates except for football.
So the networks are like, we want more football, We
don't want the three hour window anymore. Play as long
as you want. We don't give a god damn.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
They want the games to be short, and the games
to be short helps their rating. You know, if the
game is four hours, it hurts your rating, no matter
what's happening. So they will always effort to shorten the game.
But I think that it does not as much of
the point you're making is valid. I think it's not
(17:21):
as much of a concern as it used to be.
But they're still breaking their backs to make the game
shorter because they set a great example and look what
Baseball did with it. I mean, they want to fit
into a three hour window just because it looks better,
you know, and the ratings and it looks better for
whatever they're charging for advertising. But I think the overtime
(17:42):
thing they'll make an exception because maybe it's not as
important as it used to be, But I still think
it's pretty important.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I think they just want to see Josh Allen get
a possession, if Patrick Mahomes drives it down their throat
to score a touchdown. Hey, we still want the Josh Allen. Josh,
you still want the Justin Herbert got to get out there.
That's good for Yeah, we don't care if sixty minutes
comes on line. I do think that's a chance to pass.
And then finally, the best of all the rules. When
the Chargers tried to get this thing passed in twenty
twenty three, they were mocked because they had blown a
(18:09):
twenty eight to nothing lead in the playoff after being
two wins better than the Jacksonville Jaguars and having to
play a game on the road as a wildcard team
against a weak AFC South Division winner. But this time around,
with Detroit having the one seed and Minnesota having to
go on the road with fourteen wins against a team
that was three wins worse than they were, and losing
(18:30):
that game in dominating fashion at the hands of the Rams.
Detroit has submitted amending Article twenty Section twenty point two
of the Constitution and Bylaws to amend the current playoff
seating format to allow wildcard teams to be seated higher
than division champions if the wildcard team has a better
regular season record, I applaud them. May it pass? Will
(18:57):
it pass?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
No? Isn't that what happened the Chargers again this year?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, they had a better record than the Texans. Had
to go to Houston to play a road game because
the Texans play in a dog S Division against the
worst team in the league last year Tennessee twice and
the fourth worst team in the league last year, the
Jacksonville Jaguars, while the Chargers participated in a division with
the number one seed and the number seven seed, three
(19:26):
playoff teams versus one and three dog S teams.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
And you know, you know, the pushback is they didn't
win those games.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
The pushback is, well, divisions have to count, they do
you get into the playoffs. It is the easiest way
to make the playoff. Winning your division does not mean
you should get a home game.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
I saw you mixing it up on Twitter events. Oh
it is right, but you know the problem is you
know the Chargers lost to the Jaguars and lost to Houston. Sure,
so that it makes you know. I mean, you get
your your eye rolling. Not me. I'm not a skep. No.
I feel the same way for the Vikings. I believe
won for ten games, they should have a home game.
I lamented for the Vikings as well. I don't think
(20:08):
that you care about the Chargers as much as you
care about the Vikings. I just want you to know
that I believe everything you say.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I appreciate that. May it pass and may it be
a signal.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
It seems like it's more of a fair kind of yes.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
For baseball, we've talked about this. The one hundred and
six win Giants and the one hundred and five win
Dodgers absolutely ridiculous that they were playing each other in
the second round while the Braves and Brewers tangled instead,
each with under one hundred wins. Keep the divisions you
get into the playoff, the home field is seated by record.
(20:43):
All right, quickly, let's shift. This is great news. He
flamed out on the field with the Jets only played
like three snaps before his Achilles blue.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
You can attack Aaron Rudts.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I am. I'm so happy about this story. Last year
they went five and twelve. By delaying his decision, the
Viking said, thanks, we're done. You're not coming here. The
Giants are now being tied to Shdoor Sanders and Russell Wilson.
The Steelers are now looking at Jackson Dart or Jalen Milroe.
Maybe they're still okay with Aaron Rodgers, but it's not
(21:18):
a lot that he is going to have a job
in the NFL this coming year.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
The musical chairs are all being sat down in well.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
His his distribution of drama by dragging this out is
no longer holding teams hostage. They're like, yeah, we're good.
We're just gonna move on. This is not You can
put on your serape and your wired headphones because you
saw an Instagram post that somehow the air pods cause
cancer or something like that. So thanks for that, Aaron,
You're smarter than all of us. We're gonna go ahead
(21:47):
and move on I like my SAP, Aaron Rodgers. I'm
gonna be the vice president. Aaron Rodgers, I'm gonna be
the next host of Jeopardy. His tryout was an abject
failed here he had the freaking TV personality of a
coat rack. So the idea that he's going to be
the next Romo or Tom Brady land in thirty million
plus a year to replace Herbie on Amazon. This is
(22:11):
from Front office sportsp network executives. This is actually a quote.
The network executives and talent agents I talked to would
go on the record, would not go on the record.
If I asked publicly about Rogers, they would say they're
happy with their current broadcast teams and have no cast openings.
(22:33):
Some would choose the all purpose if he wants to
talk with us, we'd be happy to talk with him. However,
when I granted them anonymity, they said, quote, Rogers comes
off as a pompous know it all and would turn
off our viewers. Quote Yes, he could be a great analyst,
but he's insufferable. Another person described Rogers as needing an
(22:56):
image rehab, and then one more jab he's got the
Joe Montana problem. A reputation for being thin skinned with
rabbit ears for criticism, who holds grudges like an elephant.
And they pointed to Montana quitting his analyst's job with
NBC at halftime of Super Bowl thirty when he felt
(23:17):
disrespected by his colleagues.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Geez, not not really a guy who's in high demand
at this he might have worn out as welcome.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Everywhere sounds like it sounds like more Pat McAfee show,
I'm smarter than you do what I do social media posts,
not quarterbacking, not finding this way to a TV booth.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
And that is three things Thursday. Well, I tell you, say, SSA,
I wonder what will happen if he doesn't have a job.
I guess it'll just go on.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Pat McAfee hill dat a woman. Things will get serious,
people will start talking about marriage. He will break up
with that woman, all right?
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well, from your lips to God's ears, we love covering that. Yes,
we'll be back, but then know your opponents segment you
tah stay u tah stay with us.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
That you some money. AM five seventy LA Sports Live
Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. We have NCAA basketball coming up. UCLA.
You toss State will tip off at six twenty five pm,
a glorious two days the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
UCLA looking to advance against Utah State. The Aggies pregame
(24:44):
five fifty five exactly, tip six twenty five. Probably not exactly, all.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Right, Everybody, a little bird told me earlier today, maybe
even yesterday, that three things Thursday was going to be
NFL related. That's a counter programming method. So I figured
it was time for a little scouting, especially since my
conference of record sometimes is the Mountain West, so it
(25:10):
is time for know your opponent from the Mountain West.
Let's talk about Utah State, a respected entity in Logan.
Utah best team shooting percentage in the Mountain West, best
assists per game of any team in the Mountain West.
So they pass well, they get good looks, and they
(25:33):
make them. Let's discuss the Aggies. This game is on
TT it's on A five seventy ten versus seven. Likely
to face Tennessee in round two on Saturday. Last year,
the Aggies won the first NCAA Tournament game in their
(25:57):
illustrious history, but it took them twenty three years between
wins oh one and then last year when they beat
TCU in the first round, that was Danny Sprinkle, who's
now the U DUB coach. He was their last year.
He's last in your conference. I believe Matt in the
big ten at U DUB. Danny Sprinkle not a great
(26:20):
year for Washington. So now the head coach at Utah
State is a young man named Jared Calhoun, who took
over this year. He was the young town State Penguin
for the last seven years. He's an Ohio guy who
came up under Bob Huggins, just like our friend and hero,
(26:43):
the fiery McCrone. How do you know that. I read
an article where mc cronin talked about being a mentor
to Calhoun, ten years his senior. Calhoun played under Raleigh
Massimino at Cleveland State and then became like a GA
for Huggins. Nick is very close with Calhoun, recently counseled
(27:08):
him on his contract extension and has mentioned him throughout
his career. So no, he said a lot about it.
He says he counsels the guy all the time. Common opponents, Man,
I know you always appreciate that. Absolutely. They both blasted
Iowa this year. They both got owned by New Mexico.
(27:37):
New Mexico swept the Aggies in the Mountain West and
they beat the Bruins in Vegas. If you remember that,
the Lobos are coached by the rat like Richard Patino.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
So is that who's there? That's right? I was thinking
it was Alford, but he's up in Reno, right.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Alford is at Nevada. Yeah, another tough out in the
Mountain West. So who's to say tonight which way the
wind will blow the bluegrass of Lexic Kentucky. Will it
blow toward the Bruins or will it blow toward the Aggies.
The Aggies having an impactful Maryland transfer named Ian Martinez.
(28:18):
Are you writing this stuff down?
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Can't written it all down?
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Martinez? Ian Martinez with an S.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Or a Z. You're sure it's not pronounced iron.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
I'm pretty sure it's Ian with a z. Ian Martinez Tinas.
Their top four scores are guards.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Well, you know, and I say to that F Martinez.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
F F Martinez. Guess you know about it? Martinez White, Yeah, well, yeah,
of course. And you know the other guard is interesting.
He wears a judges robe to and his name is
navirol No. No, the other guard that is one of
their top guys, their top four scores or guards. Is
UCLA's guard play very good. McMahon, me me me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Me me move.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
The guard that does well is a local Utah white
man named Mason Falslev, another six y three guard, only
a sophomore. They have good guards. This is not an
easy draw for our angry fighting Irish coach here on
AM five seventy. How do you know that? Just the
(29:28):
way I look at it, you know, I mean the
tail of the tape. You heard what Passner said about McNeese.
Welcome to college basketball, buddy, exactly. I know all about it.
That's right.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Let's go pokes.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Mcnise. I was a uscp A guy for ten years.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Mcneut I know it when I see it.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
McNeese. The Aggies and Bruins is intriguing, and I worry
about Josh Lewin now. They are very aggressive, the Aggies.
I mean, this guy came up under Huggins. It's the
same vibe. They foul a lot. So UCLA should be
able to be at the line a lot. Utah State
(30:03):
has one quality big man Utah, but UCLA's big guys
Billadeaux and mada Utah should be able to get the
better of him. DearS, But here on the Petrosen Money Show,
we do and always have respect for the Aggies, and
(30:24):
I think it should be a very intriguing matchup, not
as intriguing as McNeice versus Clemson Niche, which was predicted
by the great Josh Passner and then rebuffed hard by
Clark Kellogg earlier in the week on The Petrosen Money Show,
and that played out before our eyes while we were
in the prep zone, and it really McNeice us down.
(30:47):
Everybody loves John McNeese out of Lake Charles, So anybody
want to give us a text from Lake Charles, All
of you Louisiana listeners give us a shout. Everybody knows
Ronnie Fossio loves McNeice and their home spun uniforms because
the Civil War they can't get the materials from the North.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Kates with a bang up job as producer the second
McNeese one. He immediately texted Passinger back with all caps
McNeese with seven exclamation points.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Good that we're creating a relationship with pass Right.
Speaker 5 (31:18):
How about a little backstory here for Will Wade. Does
the name sound familiar? He was a coach at LSU
a few years ago, fired for illegal recruiting violation when
things were kind of bad at LSU. About five six
years ago, he got his first started coaching as a GA.
You'll never guess where Clemson. Yes, back in two thousand
(31:39):
and five, he was a GA there. Now he beats
him for mcneese's first ever McNeice NCAA tournament win.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Who would know that the game we are most intrigued
by is not the one where we're super close with
the head coach that we have on our station. No,
your opponent, you to state, But we're talking about a
game that ended an hour or so ago. Niece, about
McNeice and Clemson, it's your fault. Why is it my fault?
Because I set the hype video last night?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Yes, and you just you've been saying, niece.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Not just me, Madni. I'm not the only McNeice around mcnei.
Speaker 5 (32:14):
Oh, here's a fun fact about Utah State. You mentioned
Guarden Mason falls love Utah. You know he went on
his Mormon mission to Brazil before coming back and playing basketball.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
I'm going there in September. There you go, we got
a connection.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
I mean, being a Mormon, I doubt that he would
fall victim to the big ass and flat chest and
alluring dancing style of the Brazilian women.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Or he absolutely completely fell.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
His eyes were just like two swirling balls. I know that.
Look all right, Well, we'll be back. We got a
whole other hour of great sports talk. We're gonna do well.
Just two segments, but two long segments, so long, like
a long McNeese game.
How's the stream stream commencing broadcasting on AM five to
seventy LA Sports and streaming on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's the longest running afternoon sports show in the city.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
No congratulations necessary. All traces of Fred Rogan have been removed.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
This is petros in Money, Thank You, Thank You, hosted
by Petros papadae.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Gas terrible person, He's the worst.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
And Matt money Smith. The pipes, the pipes, the pipe.
Don't miss an episode.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
We're with you, Yeah, follow.

The petros In Money Show.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Wherever you get your podcasts now Here's Petros Papadaecus and
Matt money Smith.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Respect was invented to cover the empty places where love
should be.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Nae telling me you. Petrosen Money A five seventy LA
Sports Live everywhere on the iHeart Radio app. Making our
way toward five fifty five exactly. It is a six
twenty five pm tip UCLA Utah State. They need a
full thirty minute pregame, which means we will be off
(01:09):
the air. Crunched a little at five fifty five for
NCAA tournament action. Gonzaga has already won BYU, has already won,
Creighton victorious, and perhaps our favorite McNee McNeice has knocked
off number five Clemson. Clark Kellogg joined US yesterday and
predicted Clemson would be in the National Championship game.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Is he even on right now or did he just
leave CBS's task in shame.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I'm sure he is shutting down all of his social
accounts for the next two weeks.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Well, Matt, we're crunched down a little. We got three
things Thursday coming up next, so let's get to it.
The word of the day, his.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Words, the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Well, now we got to follow up, Matt. We got
an Instagram direct message from the lady that called out
Pantone and their grifting ways. Oh we did, yes, Carrie,
Carrie Thornton, Yes we do. And I'm going to read
you the message right now. If you don't know, there's
(02:09):
a club that is a Dodger tangential club. It's just
this guy and just kind of the way they are.
Like the day Kobe died, they tried to sell T shirts.
That's sort of the Pantone vibe they had. They put
up that terrible billboard in Boston.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Oh, they took a banner in there into Yankee Stadium
and they covered a whole section, very cringe.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
The kids would say, and they take advantage of people.
You know, people give them money thinking that they're like
giving money to the Dodgers and they're not. You're giving
money to a guy named Alex and he went out
to Tokyo and got his grift on. And here is
the text or the direct message the DM. I think
the kids call.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yeah. She posted it on Facebook and it went viral.
Got to read it. That's how we found it.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
She sent this to us. I'm Carrie Thornton, the one
who was scammed by Pantone. I just want to clarify
a few things. We traveled to Japan for the Tokyo
series and we're lucky enough to attend the Dodgers versus
hat Geen Tiger's game at the Tokyo Dome. Unfortunately, I
didn't do my due diligence before purchasing, and I've seen
(03:18):
so many others sharing similar bad experiences. For context, the
watch party tickets were seventy five dollars per person and
we had a group of five for two nights. We
chose not to go back for the second night. I
appreciate everyone spreading the word, your awareness is likely why
Alex had to apologize on Pantone's Instagram, but if he
(03:40):
truly cared, he would have refunded people instead of ignoring them.
Lesson learned carry Thorne. Yeah, Carrie, thank you Carrie.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Well we appreciate the details and further in the story.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, it was seventy five bucks apiece to get scammed
by the pantone guy. Right.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Two nights, five people left early the first night, didn't
even go back the second night. Each person wasted one
hundred and fifty bucks.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Hey guys, this is Alex. My sincerely is apologize to
those that purchased tickets to the watch party at Genie's
and just we weren't able to get in with any
best layout plan. Things just changed unexpectedly and we were
able to coordinate with staffing, had a name list with
the venue and we spoke to management.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
They gave you where was he though during the party
behind home plate at the game.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Okay, continue firm that they were able to handle the
watch party. Unfortunately, we receive an overwhelmingly amount of people
show up to the venue that traveled to Japan, and
unfortunately just the staffing was they were unprepared. I've worked
with the venue, really spoke to them on the phone.
We have a venue for tonight, different process in place.
So for those with purchase tickets, make sure to check
(04:50):
in out the main entrance and we'll have you with
the confirmation email and we'll have your tickets ready to
go in the watch parties also, so please know there
is no walkings and if you don't have to get
to the watch party, we're not gonna be a comin right.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Thank you a whole, I thank you a whole. And boys,
don't give that guy your money. You could be a
Dodger fan without giving that guy your money.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Come on, please, you want to go to the Frommers
or the trip Advisor, anything and find a venue to
go watch the game. Great, anything but that guy. Guys,
anything but that guy.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Please the best laid out plans. Please don't give the
grift of your money.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
And this is all found on Reddit originally right Matt.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
On Tuesday, Reddit posted Terry's Facebook carry posted it on Facebook.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Reddit got a hold of it. We furthered it, We
furthered it. Alex apologized. We don't accept the apology. Pantone
is not a good deal for you. The Dodger fan
would be accepted.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
Sounds like it's more than just carry That was you.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Know most definitely.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Stop giving them your money.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
May it be their last event?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
What about the one at the shortstop for opening day?
Come on?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
What about the now going on? That was the best part.
I knew that guy was it frod when I saw
him with.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
All right, it's time of the number of the day.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Here's my number.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Number of the day.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Number of the day is one half, as in one
half of one pound.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
I'm not ashamed to say it. Why would I be?
We are your quick serve show of record. I hit
up fast food restaurants occasionally, time crunch, coming home a
little late. You got young kids, got young kids hungry.
Preston's a big fan of the Del Taco, so we'll
hit that one up.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
McDonald's has been taking some incoming those maybe not paying attention,
and it seems like it's the fast food joint that
we frequent the least.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Right.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
McDonald's has a population. I think, you know, it's like
you got some Taco bell people, you got some Dell.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
McDonald's still has got a pretty long, a long list
of customers.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Man, I guess I'm thinking like in our circle. Well,
like you know Carls Junior yet taco. Yeah, I mean,
don't try to act like you know me? And is
that matter to tell me? Are you?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Are you? Mcal saying people might come home with some
McDonald's and when they're when they're done, I might like
a hobo. I might grift around the room like like
Alex from Pantone and just pick up on the dodger
scraps off the table.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Hey, they ate the McChicken, but this lettuce mao como
was quite tasty.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
It's just I understand it's not it's not celebrated like
the like the star of the West, Carls Junior.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They uh, well, McDonald's has been taking some incoming. They're
searching for answers the app you know, as like free
fry Fridays and the five dollars meal. Now they've decided
it as opposed to you know, finding budgetary items to
try to get you to come in, they may just
import a foreign good that has become quite the sensation
(08:12):
to our northern neighbors. And you tell me if this
might get you back to McDonald's for a taste test.
The Big Arch, Canada based incredibly popular. Big Arch very
well might be arriving here in the US sooner than
(08:32):
later because of its success. Two quarter pound patties, three
slices of white cheese, crispy onions like little mini onion rings. Oh,
let's go, slivered onions, pickles, lettuce, big arch sauce, all sandwich.
You guessed it between a sesame and poppy seed? Bun
(08:58):
fi man, Yeah, all am, you and me both big
Arch tastes, Big Arch tate. May it make its way
across the border to a McDonald's near you. Apparently this
is something they say is being fast tracked, so keep
your eyes and your noses open.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
It sounds like it sounds glorious.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Right, It's like a big Mac, only nine thousand times better.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
It sounds like a double quarter pounder with the onion slivers.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Right, yeah, pretty great.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Sounds great to me.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Let's put the pressure on. Let's put the pressure on McDonald's.
Petros had a stroke, so he looks so happy when
he had it. He really loved that double quarter pounder.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
The big Art felt like I was sliding down the
big Saint Louis Arch at the end there. All right, Ronnie,
this is the song of the day.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
When You're Hot, You're Hot is our song of the day.
Bring the great singer, song writer, musician and actor Jerry
Reid with a tune that was atop the Country chart,
reaching number one in nineteen seventy one, and the currency
groove for your Thursday Afternoon where the Petrosen Money Show
is on a quest for almost three hours of.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Gray eight sports talk.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
Running all the games is what we're doing, and today
we'll pass it to UCLA and Utah State, who tip
off at the NCAA tournament. That begins with Josh Lewin
and Tracy Murray bringing you that good Bruins pregame show
that starts at five point fifty five.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Indeed it does.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Thank you, Ronnie, you're hot, You're hot, You're hot. Bringing
red Bow you, Oh red Bow you this fancy green
folder full of plays. You better give me this folder.
What thing's gonna get real physical in here. We'll be
right back with the three things Thursday, Ladies and gentlemen.
(11:06):
It's cracking everybody. It's pent you some money on m
five seventy LA Sports happy to be with you. They're
calling it scam tone now man on all the threads
in set a pantone.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Oh scam tone. That's good, that works like that, So
I'll play on word.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
We're gonna talk about Utah State UCLA coming up. We've
got quick Hits, fun Fact and a Dead and Alive
and then we're gonna get you to the game. But
right now, and don't forget the podcast whatever you've missed.
We've been on all week, not that long, but up
we've been on podcasts. Is show on the iHeartRadio app
for your smartphone or stream of line. This sounds good.
(11:44):
You get the little green bag that way. But right
now it's time for the top story of the day,
which is three Things Thursday.
Speaker 7 (11:51):
It three thingsters counterprogramming, counterprogramming, counterprogramming, counter programming.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
As opposed to all the McNeese around this, that's all
we care about it. Let this be our counterprogramming Wooded
Island in the lagoon of.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
McNeice, exactly right. Three Things Thursday. P We start yesterday.
Rule changes were announced. Submitted by teams to the NFL's
Competition Committee must be approved by twenty four of the
thirty two teams in order for them to pass. Typically,
it is twenty four of thirty one teams because unless
(12:38):
it's a rule that somehow manages to take a shot
at the Commissioner's office or NFL leadership. The Raiders are
going to abstain. They will vote yes on those that
will make the commissioner look like a fool. Otherwise they
typically abstain.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
That's the Al Davis way, that's the L.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Davis way. So sort of twenty four out of thirty one,
you're never going to get a yes vote from the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Detroit very busy. They got two by Detroit amends Rule eight,
section four to eliminate an automatic first down as a
penalty imposed for defensive holding and illegal contact. We all
know pass interference is a spot file could be three
(13:22):
yards in a first down could be fifty five yards
and a first down. The other illegal contact and defensive
holding is five yards and an automatic first down. I
believe they'd like to see that amended to some sort
of yard, as they believe it is too punitive. I
would suspect it will fail miserly.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Thoughts. Uh, yeah, you know, I don't like you know,
you get a past interference on the one and you're
down on the one. But also they'll foul if they
feel like that's not going to happen, and you're only
going to get fifteen yards, and they'll say the fifteen
yards is better than here, and hail to the Redskins,
you know or you know WHOEVER'SPI song it is.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I think of all the fight songs, that is the
one that is no love to the command woos.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
So yeah, I get those are my thoughts.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Second, and typically, well I shouldn't say typically oftentimes, know
that there is an agenda with these. This one from
Green Bay, Oh for real, a Men's Rule twelve, section one.
This is the prohibiting an offensive player from pushing a
teammate who was lined up directly behind the snapper and
(14:34):
receives the snap immediately at the snap. This is the
banning of the tush push. And ironically, I believe this
would qualify as irony even though we equate the tush
push with Philadelphia's Super Bowl champions, they're the ones that
do it best. Green Bay ran to play more than
any other team in football. So no, this is Green
(14:57):
Bay's way of sharing that players do not like this play.
Players do not like defending this play. Offensive linemen do
not like being asked to execute this play. But they
are football players and they don't like the way it
would come off if they were to say that publicly,
so they just go along with it. And this is
Green Bay's way likely of currying favor with their players
(15:19):
who don't like it.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I didn't like running the inside zone very much, you know,
but I should ask if they could a ban it.
I could couldn't tell us to stop running it. Yes,
they got a hard time reading this. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
The offensive and defensive linemen say, that's a lot of
strength and power and pushing and on different surfaces.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Just draft the guys from Air Force. Yeah, they do
it pretty.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Well by Philadelphia A Men's Rule sixteen Section one to
align the postseason. Now, this is an interesting one because
this is a shift and what has long been held
and driven by you for a long while. And I
do believe this has a chance to pass. Rule sixteen,
(16:03):
Section one to align the postseason in regular season overtime
rules by granting both teams an opportunity to possess the
ball regardless of the outcome of the first possession, subject
to a fifteen minute overtime period. In the regular season,
now overtime has been ten minutes and you know, you
get a possession if the other team only scores a
(16:24):
field goal, but not if we score a touchdown. This
would change it to full fifteen minutes. And this would
change it to even if they score a touchdown, you
still getting possession.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I like that, so, but think about how much this
has changed, because what did you always say? Why this
would never happen.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
They're trying hard to squeeze it into the three hour windows.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
So they can get too primetime.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
So that yeah, that just it's a ratings thing.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
And now guess what's happened. Nothing rates except for football.
So the networks are like, we want more football, We
don't want the three hour window anymore. Play as long
as you want. We don't give a god damn.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
They want the games to be short, and the games
to be short helps their rating. You know, if the
game is four hours, it hurts your rating, no matter
what's happening. So they will always effort to shorten the game.
But I think that it does not as much of
the point you're making is valid. I think it's not
(17:21):
as much of a concern as it used to be.
But they're still breaking their backs to make the game
shorter because they set a great example and look what
Baseball did with it. I mean, they want to fit
into a three hour window just because it looks better,
you know, and the ratings and it looks better for
whatever they're charging for advertising. But I think the overtime
(17:42):
thing they'll make an exception because maybe it's not as
important as it used to be, But I still think
it's pretty important.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I think they just want to see Josh Allen get
a possession, if Patrick Mahomes drives it down their throat
to score a touchdown. Hey, we still want the Josh Allen. Josh,
you still want the Justin Herbert got to get out there.
That's good for Yeah, we don't care if sixty minutes
comes on line. I do think that's a chance to pass.
And then finally, the best of all the rules. When
the Chargers tried to get this thing passed in twenty
twenty three, they were mocked because they had blown a
(18:09):
twenty eight to nothing lead in the playoff after being
two wins better than the Jacksonville Jaguars and having to
play a game on the road as a wildcard team
against a weak AFC South Division winner. But this time around,
with Detroit having the one seed and Minnesota having to
go on the road with fourteen wins against a team
that was three wins worse than they were, and losing
(18:30):
that game in dominating fashion at the hands of the Rams.
Detroit has submitted amending Article twenty Section twenty point two
of the Constitution and Bylaws to amend the current playoff
seating format to allow wildcard teams to be seated higher
than division champions if the wildcard team has a better
regular season record, I applaud them. May it pass? Will
(18:57):
it pass?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
No? Isn't that what happened the Chargers again this year?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, they had a better record than the Texans. Had
to go to Houston to play a road game because
the Texans play in a dog S Division against the
worst team in the league last year Tennessee twice and
the fourth worst team in the league last year, the
Jacksonville Jaguars, while the Chargers participated in a division with
the number one seed and the number seven seed, three
(19:26):
playoff teams versus one and three dog S teams.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
And you know, you know, the pushback is they didn't
win those games.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
The pushback is, well, divisions have to count, they do
you get into the playoffs. It is the easiest way
to make the playoff. Winning your division does not mean
you should get a home game.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
I saw you mixing it up on Twitter events. Oh
it is right, but you know the problem is you
know the Chargers lost to the Jaguars and lost to Houston. Sure,
so that it makes you know. I mean, you get
your your eye rolling. Not me. I'm not a skep. No.
I feel the same way for the Vikings. I believe
won for ten games, they should have a home game.
I lamented for the Vikings as well. I don't think
(20:08):
that you care about the Chargers as much as you
care about the Vikings. I just want you to know
that I believe everything you say.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I appreciate that. May it pass and may it be
a signal.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
It seems like it's more of a fair kind of yes.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
For baseball, we've talked about this. The one hundred and
six win Giants and the one hundred and five win
Dodgers absolutely ridiculous that they were playing each other in
the second round while the Braves and Brewers tangled instead,
each with under one hundred wins. Keep the divisions you
get into the playoff, the home field is seated by record.
(20:43):
All right, quickly, let's shift. This is great news. He
flamed out on the field with the Jets only played
like three snaps before his Achilles blue.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
You can attack Aaron Rudts.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I am. I'm so happy about this story. Last year
they went five and twelve. By delaying his decision, the
Viking said, thanks, we're done. You're not coming here. The
Giants are now being tied to Shdoor Sanders and Russell Wilson.
The Steelers are now looking at Jackson Dart or Jalen Milroe.
Maybe they're still okay with Aaron Rodgers, but it's not
(21:18):
a lot that he is going to have a job
in the NFL this coming year.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
The musical chairs are all being sat down in well.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
His his distribution of drama by dragging this out is
no longer holding teams hostage. They're like, yeah, we're good.
We're just gonna move on. This is not You can
put on your serape and your wired headphones because you
saw an Instagram post that somehow the air pods cause
cancer or something like that. So thanks for that, Aaron,
You're smarter than all of us. We're gonna go ahead
(21:47):
and move on I like my SAP, Aaron Rodgers. I'm
gonna be the vice president. Aaron Rodgers, I'm gonna be
the next host of Jeopardy. His tryout was an abject
failed here he had the freaking TV personality of a
coat rack. So the idea that he's going to be
the next Romo or Tom Brady land in thirty million
plus a year to replace Herbie on Amazon. This is
(22:11):
from Front office sportsp network executives. This is actually a quote.
The network executives and talent agents I talked to would
go on the record, would not go on the record.
If I asked publicly about Rogers, they would say they're
happy with their current broadcast teams and have no cast openings.
(22:33):
Some would choose the all purpose if he wants to
talk with us, we'd be happy to talk with him. However,
when I granted them anonymity, they said, quote, Rogers comes
off as a pompous know it all and would turn
off our viewers. Quote Yes, he could be a great analyst,
but he's insufferable. Another person described Rogers as needing an
(22:56):
image rehab, and then one more jab he's got the
Joe Montana problem. A reputation for being thin skinned with
rabbit ears for criticism, who holds grudges like an elephant.
And they pointed to Montana quitting his analyst's job with
NBC at halftime of Super Bowl thirty when he felt
(23:17):
disrespected by his colleagues.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Geez, not not really a guy who's in high demand
at this he might have worn out as welcome.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Everywhere sounds like it sounds like more Pat McAfee show,
I'm smarter than you do what I do social media posts,
not quarterbacking, not finding this way to a TV booth.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
And that is three things Thursday. Well, I tell you, say, SSA,
I wonder what will happen if he doesn't have a job.
I guess it'll just go on.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Pat McAfee hill dat a woman. Things will get serious,
people will start talking about marriage. He will break up
with that woman, all right?
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well, from your lips to God's ears, we love covering that. Yes,
we'll be back, but then know your opponents segment you
tah stay u tah stay with us.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
That you some money. AM five seventy LA Sports Live
Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. We have NCAA basketball coming up. UCLA.
You toss State will tip off at six twenty five pm,
a glorious two days the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
UCLA looking to advance against Utah State. The Aggies pregame
(24:44):
five fifty five exactly, tip six twenty five. Probably not exactly, all.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Right, Everybody, a little bird told me earlier today, maybe
even yesterday, that three things Thursday was going to be
NFL related. That's a counter programming method. So I figured
it was time for a little scouting, especially since my
conference of record sometimes is the Mountain West, so it
(25:10):
is time for know your opponent from the Mountain West.
Let's talk about Utah State, a respected entity in Logan.
Utah best team shooting percentage in the Mountain West, best
assists per game of any team in the Mountain West.
So they pass well, they get good looks, and they
(25:33):
make them. Let's discuss the Aggies. This game is on
TT it's on A five seventy ten versus seven. Likely
to face Tennessee in round two on Saturday. Last year,
the Aggies won the first NCAA Tournament game in their
(25:57):
illustrious history, but it took them twenty three years between
wins oh one and then last year when they beat
TCU in the first round, that was Danny Sprinkle, who's
now the U DUB coach. He was their last year.
He's last in your conference. I believe Matt in the
big ten at U DUB. Danny Sprinkle not a great
(26:20):
year for Washington. So now the head coach at Utah
State is a young man named Jared Calhoun, who took
over this year. He was the young town State Penguin
for the last seven years. He's an Ohio guy who
came up under Bob Huggins, just like our friend and hero,
(26:43):
the fiery McCrone. How do you know that. I read
an article where mc cronin talked about being a mentor
to Calhoun, ten years his senior. Calhoun played under Raleigh
Massimino at Cleveland State and then became like a GA
for Huggins. Nick is very close with Calhoun, recently counseled
(27:08):
him on his contract extension and has mentioned him throughout
his career. So no, he said a lot about it.
He says he counsels the guy all the time. Common opponents, Man,
I know you always appreciate that. Absolutely. They both blasted
Iowa this year. They both got owned by New Mexico.
(27:37):
New Mexico swept the Aggies in the Mountain West and
they beat the Bruins in Vegas. If you remember that,
the Lobos are coached by the rat like Richard Patino.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
So is that who's there? That's right? I was thinking
it was Alford, but he's up in Reno, right.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Alford is at Nevada. Yeah, another tough out in the
Mountain West. So who's to say tonight which way the
wind will blow the bluegrass of Lexic Kentucky. Will it
blow toward the Bruins or will it blow toward the Aggies.
The Aggies having an impactful Maryland transfer named Ian Martinez.
(28:18):
Are you writing this stuff down?
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Can't written it all down?
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Martinez? Ian Martinez with an S.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Or a Z. You're sure it's not pronounced iron.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
I'm pretty sure it's Ian with a z. Ian Martinez Tinas.
Their top four scores are guards.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Well, you know, and I say to that F Martinez.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
F F Martinez. Guess you know about it? Martinez White, Yeah, well, yeah,
of course. And you know the other guard is interesting.
He wears a judges robe to and his name is
navirol No. No, the other guard that is one of
their top guys, their top four scores or guards. Is
UCLA's guard play very good. McMahon, me me me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Me me move.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
The guard that does well is a local Utah white
man named Mason Falslev, another six y three guard, only
a sophomore. They have good guards. This is not an
easy draw for our angry fighting Irish coach here on
AM five seventy. How do you know that? Just the
(29:28):
way I look at it, you know, I mean the
tail of the tape. You heard what Passner said about McNeese.
Welcome to college basketball, buddy, exactly. I know all about it.
That's right.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Let's go pokes.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Mcnise. I was a uscp A guy for ten years.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Mcneut I know it when I see it.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
McNeese. The Aggies and Bruins is intriguing, and I worry
about Josh Lewin now. They are very aggressive, the Aggies.
I mean, this guy came up under Huggins. It's the
same vibe. They foul a lot. So UCLA should be
able to be at the line a lot. Utah State
(30:03):
has one quality big man Utah, but UCLA's big guys
Billadeaux and mada Utah should be able to get the
better of him. DearS, But here on the Petrosen Money Show,
we do and always have respect for the Aggies, and
(30:24):
I think it should be a very intriguing matchup, not
as intriguing as McNeice versus Clemson Niche, which was predicted
by the great Josh Passner and then rebuffed hard by
Clark Kellogg earlier in the week on The Petrosen Money Show,
and that played out before our eyes while we were
in the prep zone, and it really McNeice us down.
(30:47):
Everybody loves John McNeese out of Lake Charles, So anybody
want to give us a text from Lake Charles, All
of you Louisiana listeners give us a shout. Everybody knows
Ronnie Fossio loves McNeice and their home spun uniforms because
the Civil War they can't get the materials from the North.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Kates with a bang up job as producer the second
McNeese one. He immediately texted Passinger back with all caps
McNeese with seven exclamation points.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Good that we're creating a relationship with pass Right.
Speaker 5 (31:18):
How about a little backstory here for Will Wade. Does
the name sound familiar? He was a coach at LSU
a few years ago, fired for illegal recruiting violation when
things were kind of bad at LSU. About five six
years ago, he got his first started coaching as a GA.
You'll never guess where Clemson. Yes, back in two thousand
(31:39):
and five, he was a GA there. Now he beats
him for mcneese's first ever McNeice NCAA tournament win.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Who would know that the game we are most intrigued
by is not the one where we're super close with
the head coach that we have on our station. No,
your opponent, you to state, But we're talking about a
game that ended an hour or so ago. Niece, about
McNeice and Clemson, it's your fault. Why is it my fault?
Because I set the hype video last night?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Yes, and you just you've been saying, niece.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Not just me, Madni. I'm not the only McNeice around mcnei.
Speaker 5 (32:14):
Oh, here's a fun fact about Utah State. You mentioned
Guarden Mason falls love Utah. You know he went on
his Mormon mission to Brazil before coming back and playing basketball.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
I'm going there in September. There you go, we got
a connection.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
I mean, being a Mormon, I doubt that he would
fall victim to the big ass and flat chest and
alluring dancing style of the Brazilian women.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Or he absolutely completely fell.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
His eyes were just like two swirling balls. I know that.
Look all right, Well, we'll be back. We got a
whole other hour of great sports talk. We're gonna do well.
Just two segments, but two long segments, so long, like
a long McNeese game.
