(01:15):
Ppacific for Brady. And we do now know our international

(01:38):
there's your international games. Now, there's some people out there
who are really concerned about another story in the world
of sports. Obviously, Greg Doyle is not allowed to cover
Caitlin Clark in the Indiana Fever. So LeVar Arrington take
it away your thoughts on the debut of Kaitlin Clark
last night.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
I mean, you heard Cue talk about it.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
I don't have any any you know, heart feelings towards
her or any type of vitriol you know, towards her.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
You know, I wish her the best. You know, she
should give hey, give me thirty seconds. Here's the breakdown.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
All right, there's gonna be an adjustment for her because
anyone who watched her in college, as much as you
were enamored with the long range threes, her ability to
get to the basket, you also saw a fair amount
of turnovers, and you saw a lot of that last night.
I mean, these girls are taller, they're longer, they're more athletic,
and they're able to pick up on our tendencies more.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
You know.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Back during the tournament, people talked about how I think
was when she was driving to her right. She likes
to shoot if he's going, If she drives to her left,
she's gonna try to make to the basket. It's either
that or like vice versa. But a couple of teams
like knew the scouting report and played, you know, kind
of to that, and I think frustrated her at times.
So her game's going to have to adapt, it's going
to have to adjust. That being said, she's still an
(02:57):
amazing shooter and an incredible play and she's going to adapt.
She's going to adjust just like she did in college,
and she'll be just fine. But the turnovers were something
and if you watched her Diyowa, her style of play,
it was a little more fast paced. They really would
kind of push the envelope. But that was something that
you noticed you kind of thought to yourself, it didn't
always take into account like the right basketball play at
(03:20):
that moment, whether it's you know, with the lead, trying
to eat some you know, time off the clock, that
sort of thing. Those are the things you'd want to
see a little bit, right, So, look, she's going to
continue to develop and grow as a player. I was
kind of, you know, bopping around why while delayed and
on the flight, kind of watching a little bit of everything.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
So I got to see some of her second half.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Obviously it was much better than the start of the
game where she got in foult trouble and she really struggled.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
Yeah, I just I think in the end, when you're
what do you care? No, I don't, really, I don't,
but I do. Like I saw the pictures of them
flying private stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
There's those kicks she was wearing. You love the shoe
game too, Yeah, of course she done a tiffany.
Speaker 5 (04:06):
Pair of Nikes, which I do really know what that means.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
I mean when you when you're as famous as she is,
you get to do collaborations.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Like I was just talking to him.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
One of my guys that I work with, he's a
sneaker head, and we were.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Talking about you work with.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
Was name's Dustin if.
Speaker 6 (04:22):
You want to throw Yeah, Dustin's my guy.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Yeah. Well well, I mean that's a different dude. That's
a different, different person. You know. He belongs to me,
by the way.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Uh anyway, Uh that that that they did a collaboration
with with Jordan's and car Hearts, and it was it
was an amazing Jordan And guess how much it costs? Man,
Like an upward upwards of thirty thousand dollars for Carhart
a car Heart collaboration you hold like like the jackets
(04:56):
and like the yes really hard eminem Michael Jordan, Jordan's
shoes thirty g Man.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
I ain't paying that.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
No, I ain't paying that.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
I ain't paying that.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
But yeah, I mean, listen, regardless of where you fall
on how she looked in the game, regardless of if
you're a supporter or a hater of her, she's driving.
She's driving interest. Like outside of Caitlyn Clark in a
playoff playoff time in the NBA. Would anybody really have
(05:33):
anything to say about the w NBA. I mean, let's
be real, what anybody had, Like we are leading off
the top of the show talking about w NBA.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
You want it?
Speaker 4 (05:43):
You you like we said I paid for like we
had a run down, and LaVar is like, listen, if
I don't get my Caitlyn Clark taken, I'm not doing
the show tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
That's right, Okay, that's fine, you got that right. Hey.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
By the way, it is Carhart the like the like apparel.
They sell it Ace hardw.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Yes, yes, What does that have to do with Jordan's Well,
I mean obviously car Heart is connected to like, you know,
mells and and and factories and and like the working.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Men all right, who in the factories weren't Jordan's.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
I mean they might wear it on their their downtown.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
The point is is that Eminem felt like it was
a dope collaboration to do car Heart and do Nike
and him, and that's what they did, and they have
the Carhart Jordan's.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Okay, I mean, okay, if that's the case, and I'll
go get some of my little pony and put it
together with my dickies.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
And if you're if you make yourself, it's so wrong.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
I mean, yeahs.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Pedophile, we're talking. It's like weird collaborations, you know what.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
I'm just saying.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Those two things should never be in the same sentence.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Ever.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
It's just like eminem eminem and car heart like I
don't know whatever, but you know what I mean, It's
just a weird combination. It doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
But interesting.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
That being said, I just sent it to you guys.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
All right, so you guys like.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Understand what by the way, Lee, how do they have
a price point on the Kaitlin Clark shoes? Like, how
much like a pair of Kaitlyn Clark shoes go for him?
So I'm gonna I'm gonna bet let's see this.
Speaker 6 (07:28):
I mean, can you imagine paying that amount of money
for a pair of kicks?
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Honestly, those bowling shoes.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
It's it's like the material from a car heart jacket
and they used it on the sneakers.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Thirty thousand dollars My god, man, thirty thousand Holy.
Speaker 6 (07:50):
As you Yeah, I wanted them too.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
I was like, man, I want these. He's like, yeah,
those are thirty g's.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
I just can't get how people are willing to invest
so much money on things that go on their feet,
like that's that's because here's the thing is, like it's
not that I don't appreciate it, like I got bad feet,
Like trust me, if there's anything I appreciate, it's things
that make your feet not hurt because I've got metal
in one foot and a jacked up foot on my
(08:19):
right side, Like trust.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Me, I get it.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It's just I look at it and go like, how
can you invest so much money where like you're gonna
warn't run.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
Through those things like it, and you're not buying that
for You're not buying those for comfort, like they're not.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
I'm also not buying it for resale because I don't
want to buy something that was on someone else's foot.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
But you can't sell to me, but you can resell them.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
The resale market is pretty crazy for those types of kicks,
but I don't.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I don't want someone else to buy something that's been
on my foot, like it's the whole. It'd be like
buying used underwear too, like I'm not I don't care
if there's a resale value for that.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I'm not selling my underwear.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
I would say it's a tad bit different if you
sold your drawls versus selling them.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
I can't sell his draws right now, No, I can't. No,
but Andre the Giant sold his jockstrap.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
I mean, I'm just saying, yeah, who wouldn't want that
tom Brady's last worn pants and versus the Cowboys are
on auction starting at ten thousand.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
It's going to go up. It's going to go up.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
Oh yeah, Why.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
You so excited about saying that man's pants is going
to go up in value? Man? Like what I'm just
talking about?
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Get it?
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Well?
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Well you can, man, Okay, ten thousand dollars for a
pair of pants, Okay.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
Pair of Tom Brady's pants. I mean, I'm just.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Saying, we're assuming they're his pants, you know.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
I mean if I was Tom Brady, I'd be wearing
pants and drawls and just putting them up for auction.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
You know, why not?
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Do you think somebody would actually bid on Lee's everywhere? No,
you don't think anybody listening to this show would bid
on Lee's underwear.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
Let's let's test the theory.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
You got a pair of drawers, not the ones you
got on today. It looks like you.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
I think it's the exact ones he's wearing today, you know,
and then we can have we could have a quote
from Lorena, you know, and.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
The authenticate it. Yes, I was there, abused.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
These are the ones he had on.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
I mean, I guess at the end of the day,
I really can't say anything because remember during COVID there's
that girl who was bottling her farts and selling them.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
She was and people were buying them.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, like maybe people were willing to buy these underwear
because whatever we're.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Talking about now, that's crazy, damn it is.
Speaker 6 (10:38):
Well, there's always that, I mean, and and how much.
I mean, you get one, you get one, go at it, right,
you open the jar, you get it one time, right,
that's it. It's not like you get to use it
over and over and it's not like it's not like
it's compressed in there and you get to like spray it. Right.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
It's just nasty.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
She's just putting it in the jar. I mean, it's
pretty brilliant. You know, it's dumb as l but people
was buying that joint.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
They were also buying where Brady. Tom Brady announced his
retirement on the beach in Florida. People were buying the
sand from the place that he announced his retirement. Like,
you know, how many bums probably took a leak right
in that stood just because they were trying to get
to where they needed to go. Like how many hobos
are dragging aluminum cans like across the sand with like
(11:29):
some seashell. They assume it's going to get them some
value at the recycling center, and they're like, oh, this
is good enough for me. And people are collecting that
sand and selling it, and they were selling that stuff
on eband people were actually buying it, tang like people.
There are more hoarders in this country than people want
to admit. They got problems, all right, nothing wrong with
throwing stuff away. By the way, if you guys, I
(11:52):
don't know if you happened to see the little dust
up in the game last night between Dante DiVincenzo and
Miles Turner of the Indiana Pacers, but uh, they kind
of got into it a little bit last night, and
Dante DiVincenzo, he spoke after the game about, you know,
just Miles Turner and the Indiana Pacers trying to get
aggressive and trying to throw down out there. And let's
(12:15):
take a listening to be tough guys, So you know
that's not there any and there was nothing more to that.
Speaker 7 (12:22):
I just don't you know, I won't agree with trying to,
you know, walk up on somebody that you know. It
wasn't a fighting NBA, so to take the fou keep
it moving, You're not a tough guy, Just keep it.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
So, basically calling out the league, saying nobody's gonna fight
in the NBA.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
I mean, do you see what took place?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
It came off of the rebound dunk by de Vincenzo,
and then as he ran down the floor this there's
obviously some hype the Knickers pounding the pacers. At this point,
Turner sets a screen and he kind of shuffled and
the Vincenzo is trying to get by. Then he kind
of starts like elbowing him, almost pushing him again. It
seemed like kind of a hyped moment frustration from Turner.
(13:03):
It's being one of those series. I mean, it's been
a back and forth series. A lot of people I
talked to just being in New York, they kind of
wrote the Knicks off even before last night's game. Thing,
thinking like these guys are limping through at this point,
Brunson just basically put the team on his back. But
either way, that's what happens in these series, right, Like
you get teams that are just absolutely battling to try
(13:23):
to make it through, and frustration displays itself.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
And I think that's more of what it was than
anything else.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
And I don't think Turner was trying to be a
tough guy.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
It's just it was. It was a rough night for
the Pacers. It really was to get smoked like that.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
And the way I thought bruns Brunson was unstoppable last night,
and he's so much fun to watch because he's got
such just a different pace and way of just finding
ways to get to the basket. Like I hate making
this comparison, but Brunston and Yokich are very similar in
that sense. They just have this crafty way of finding
their way to get buggets, to get to the basket.
(13:56):
It doesn't matter if it's mid range, it doesn't matter
if it's finishing at the basket out outside shooting.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
They just find ways of scoring. And it's it's so
much fun to.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Watch when you see a player like that who just
both those guys last night, we're unstoppable.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Yeah, he's been awesome.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
I wonder if they will put their compression shorts or
jocks on line for auction now, you know, now that
we've created a trend, you.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
Know, who's do you think would get the most?
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Probably Jokics? I think so I would have. But Brunson's
in a great market. I mean, but Jokic is in
one too.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Joki seems like a guy that just wears like old
old school boxers, you know, like he doesn't like there's
no compression short.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Off the underwors.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
No. I'm just saying like he just seems like he
would wear no, like he just just goes commandos.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Yeah, like whatever.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You could picture on porky picking is what you're saying.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Nothing else day. I mean, the ball ain't the only
thing that's crossing over, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Like, you know, good point. That's a good point.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
Thank you, Jonah.

Speaker 6 (16:28):
Oh, that's amazing news, Petro.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Now wait a minute. Thursdays we travel and we have

Speaker 5 (17:13):
Let's go, Hey, you are freaking amazing.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
Hey what what proft did that? Petros? What h What
inspired you to do all that? Would you say?
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Put my name out there as a running back coach? Guys,
every day drills, that's what we do, ed ds.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
Some people just like the work man.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
We put Doug Doug Gottlieb on yesterday when the big
announcement was made that he's going to do his radio
show and coach Wisconsin Green Bay, which is a job
I guess he almost got last year and he wants
to coach, and he's coached for a long.
Speaker 9 (17:48):
Time and tell you stuff like that. Is that possible?
He's doing both? Clearly it's possible. I'm curious, though, like,
how do you do both?
Speaker 2 (18:00):
I don't know, you guys. I mean, we brought him
on and he gave us his schedule for the last uh,
I don't know, for the next three weeks or three days.
It was like the craziest ninety hours I've ever heard
in my life. And then he said Darvin Ham didn't
(18:20):
show up to his own meetings on time. I was like,
all right, this is a person of purpose, so I'm
looking forward to that. Yeah, we had him on. It
was It's crazy, It's okay.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
So what is more surprising that that the Doug's taking
this position but also still doing the radio show, or Brownie.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
James is not in Fire we Go.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah, I'm just I'm curious because I was under the
assumption that if Southern cow which is one of the
most prestigious universities in the land. If they're going to
put something in their media guide, like, it's got to
be accurate, right, Uh, you mean his height?
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Yeah, he lost three inches. He got sought off that
had him at six forty six one and a half.
The Bronnie James thing is amazing because I feel, I mean,
he's just a kid and he's had some struggles in life,
despite he is extremely extremely Uh, I guess you'd say privileged.
(19:24):
I don't even like that word, but pedigree as far
as who his father is. But what we're watching with
the Bronnie James, the combine stuff. And I'm not an
NBA talent expert or anything, but I know a lot
of people that are. And it's one of the most
incredible abuses of power and a brand and of the
(19:48):
meritocracy that is the NBA draft or any draft that
we've ever seen in our lives. And the fact that
they literally employ an army of media minions to go
and tell everybody that they're not looking at what they're seeing,
peeing in everybody's face and telling them it's raining, basically
is kind of I guess it speaks to where we
(20:09):
are in our world today, where there's no more. I mean,
nobody has a monopoly on the truth anymore because this
this weird phrase, my truth has come. You know, I'm
going to tell my truth. Well, there's no such thing, right,
you know, there is either the truth or there's manufactured propaganda.
(20:33):
And how many of us have become propagandists just to
just to try to please a guy and a brand
who not to bring up urination again, wouldn't pee on
us if he was on fire or if we were
on fire. I mean, I just don't understand what everybody's doing.
Why why do we have to carry water for Lebron
(20:53):
James's son? Like it's one thing to make your kid
a coach, right, Like we see that in foot everywhere.
I mean when I was playing for John Robinson at SC,
Dave Robinson his son was what the tight end coach?
What does the tight end coach do? He takes the
tight ends to the receiver meeting to learn to catch,
(21:14):
and he takes them to the O line meeting to
learn to block. That's the tight end coach. Usually it's
the coach's son. Maybe he'll climb, maybe he'll do something,
Maybe he'll become a head coach. Someday, but that's what
Look look at JB. Bickerstaff running around. I mean, it's
fine to put your kid as a coach, and no
one would complain about that, But to insert your kid
(21:35):
in this way when he should be just battling for
a position at USD or UC Irvine or someplace like
that is an amazing thing that we're watching happen. And
I don't know what the endgame is. I guess it's
going to be the G League. And what do you
think these guys in the G League who are begging
(21:55):
to get their next per diem check so they can
eat at Applebee's some of the He's grind and asked
dudes in the G League, what do you think they're
gonna do when they see Brownie James show up with
his physio and his chef. They're gonna want to hang
their nuts on his head. They're gonna line up to
do it. It's kind of like the baby Gronk thing.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
I'm not sure if you've been.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Following, I remember maybe Gronk.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
He's still a thing, but yeah, now now he's he's
already at a young age being targeted in a lot
of these seven on seven camps, and it's unfortunate because
his dad.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Is the one that's kind of been right. They create this,
You create this situation, this mythology around your kid, and
then your kid is supposed to live up to it.
The fact that Lebron James seems to be this unaware
or this bent on whatever he's trying to accomplish is
tough because if you talk to a real NBA executive
(22:47):
or something like that, they can't believe, you know what,
it's really the same situation that it was when he
was being recruited for college. It's a bunch of coaches
with an affiliation in Nike or Klutch or whatever that
have both fingers crossed and hope that Lebron and Clutch
does not call them about Bronny.
Speaker 4 (23:06):
Hey, Petros, have you what is Don McLain because he
would know better than anybody about what the future could
look like for Bronnie James or how to evaluate well Don.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
McClain is well. Don McClain has a son who is
an elite basketball player six ' eleven and recruited basketball
player in high school.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
Where's he go to high school?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
He goes to a thousand Oh that's right, But He
also is very involved because he's an elite player in
the AAU and all that, which means you're involved with
lebron And I'm not saying Don is leveraged. He's very
honest about it. But he's also very respectful when it
comes to talking about Bronnie, and he knows Bronnie and
(23:50):
his son played on a team with Bronnie. So he's
very respectful. But it's very clear when you talk to
Don and you listen to what he's saying, we're talking
about a guy who's six one. If you're six to one,
you have to have elite handles to play in the NBA.
He doesn't. If you're six to one, you have to
be able to shoot like the lights out to play
in the NBA. He doesn't. Uh, And you have to
(24:14):
be to say that a guy's athletic. I mean, NBA
players are the most athletic people in the world. They're
all athletic. What what do you think, you're like? What
do you what are you selling to us? What they're not?
They're not. I didn't say they're the toughest. I just
think they're the most athletic.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
But think about it, right, I was watching the workout
that that BRONI and then we're going they do the
same workout pretty much kind of sort of that we do.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Just on on Hartwood.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
Name a basketball player that would be faster than like,
you take the fastest football players, you take the fastest
basketball player.
Speaker 5 (24:53):
Who's going to be faster?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Oh football? But that's not really I mean what I'm
what I'm referring to. Go ahead.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
I was gonna say, like the scale of it, I
get that, right, Shooting a basketball, dribbling a basketball, I
get that all right, But how many? How many basketball
players are going to be able to spin a football
the way a quarterback spends a football.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
I mean, I totally disagree with whatever Austin Rivers said.
Those guys would all get broken off. I mean we
talked about this. I didn't say they were tough, and
I never really thought about it much until I started
going to NBA games as a media guy and sitting
on the floor and watching the guys move around. To me,
it's really about propioception, like where awareness of where your
(25:36):
limbs are in space at all times.
Speaker 5 (25:39):
I feel like they're on stilts.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, And to me, to be able to do that,
to be that tall and to be able to do that,
and to be able not only to jump, but jump
really fast up the second time. Stuff like that. The
stuff that they do, I'm marvel at. I'm marvel at
watching these guys. Just the highlights of the playoff games.
Every game is a lot of fun to watch. But
don't you feel like athletic?
Speaker 6 (26:03):
You can put your feet on the court and watch
a basketball game and you can't do that in football,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Like the amount of speed, like how quickly.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Well, yeah, there's a lot less space for them to
for them to build up the speed. I'm not talking
about speed. I just look to me, I think they're
incredibly athletic people. So to say that Brownie James is athletic,
it's like, well, you know, that's like bringing That's like
bringing bread to the bakery. You know, That's all I'm saying.
I agree with you. I think you know, football is
(26:33):
much more explosive, much more violent, and football players.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
I mean, but you got to be athletic too. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Well, every football player I've ever met thinks that they
can play basketball in box, and ninety eight percent of
them are wrong.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
That's fair, right.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
The best basketball players I played with on the football
team at SC were always like ex quarterbacks who actually
played on the basketball team. You know. Everybody else, Yeah,
everybody else was like one on one aau guys. You know.
But but look, the Bronnie James thing is a real
it's a real miscarriage of meritocracy and justice. These are spots,
(27:12):
it's a crime, you know, these are spots that should
be taken up by somebody who deserves this opportunity of
the India combine somebody that deserves this opportunity in the
McDonald's All American Game. The best evaluation of Bronnie James
as a player came when he was in high school,
and that was that he was a second team okay,
(27:36):
one of the very few fair evaluations. Twenty twenty three
Mission League High Schools coach vote coaches all voted Brownie
onto the All League second team. There were eight guys
on the first team and Bronnie made the second team.
That is that's Bronnie James. And it's sad, it's it's
(27:56):
unfortunate that this is happening to this kid. It's become
a public debate, you know, and it's also upsetting that
this is what happens with lebron every year he gets
blown out of the playoffs and then he finds ways
for us to have to talk about him throughout the
rest of the spring. I mean, just go to cancuon
like everybody else and disappeared.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Now, were there any first teamers did that though? Did
they have the banana boat picture and all that dang
banana boat?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Yeah? I think you mean the other the eight guys
on the first team?
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Yeah, were any of them at this combine that Ronnie
James was at.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
I'm not sure. That's a great question. Uh maybe one
or two of those guys, I think, or they're all
still in college where Bronny should be at Petros.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
I don't mean to, like, you know, spoil any surprises
here with you know, the show with you and Matt
money Smith and Tim Kate's producing the fine job that
you guys do. But I do feel like, where are
we going to carve out? Because you've already talked about
having Jim Harbaugh as a as a weekly guest.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I have not.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
I've talked about well, I mean that's been you know,
I think you brought it up. You're talking about it,
But I mean, like but where would you, like, what
day of the week would you prefer to have JJ
Redick on as another coach in town as a weekly
guest for you guys, Like when when do you think
that'll get figured out there?
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Like oh, the Hubris Hour with JJ Reddick.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
I do petrous.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
We don't have a lot of time, so I do
want to follow up and ask you this. I saw
a report that coach K would help consult.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
Is that in your.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Mind because people wouldn't in the Lakers organization wouldn't feel
like it would make sense for JJ and his first job.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I'm looking for a gymnastics analyst and I'm going to
hire Brady Quinn to be to be the be the
I'm the Brady Quinn search for him. You know, any
gymnasts Brady that I might be able to hire, quite possibly.
But it's two ways though.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Is that a Lakers concern because of JJ Reddick and
so instead they're getting coach K as well? Or is
that a JJ Reddick concern that he knows is if
Lebron is to come back to LA that coach K
is someone he respects.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
And he's not going to push back against.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Now I'm just look, uh, I don't have the filter
in the morning for the euphanisms of all this. The
Lakers are run by idiots, and they throw their money.
They throw their money at things to legitimize things, you know,
like JJ Reddicks never coached before, but it's okay, Coach
k says it's cool, all right, Okay, let's go. You know,
(30:35):
it's uh. I'm sure JJ Reddick can coach or whatever
and drink wine and chop it up with Lebron, but
there is no Lakers. The Lakers are run by a
it's been a coup. Clutch Sports runs the Lakers. They
do what Lebron says, They've sold themselves to Lebron, and
he's going to be able to make their decisions until
(30:57):
he doesn't anymore. And I think it's only going to
be come more and more upsetting for Laker fans. And
so when you say, well, what's their play here? These
transparent just ridiculous things, you know, like that Brian Windhorse guy. Okay,
I guess he's on a Yeah, he's on ozempic now,
(31:18):
so he's filling up less of the screen.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
But he.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
The guy goes on and he's like, well, you know,
Lebron and Savannah were in Akron to see their mothers,
and that's how he ended up with It's like, no,
he ended up there because he can't go a week
without getting a major amount of tention while everybody else
is playing basketball like this. We do this every year,
We go through this masquerade for this guy, and I
(31:45):
just I wish we could do something else. I really,
I really do. The insertion of his kid just makes
it even creepier. Kind of exposes the Lakers for the
week leadership that they've had ever since the Doctor died.
With all due respect to Genie, who's a lovely person,
and my god, you're being taken advantage of by some
of the worst, most manipulative people in the history of
(32:06):
major sports modern times. This is ridiculous. You know, the
fact that sports athletics is supposed to be a meritocracy
and everybody knows what we're doing and we're still doing it,
and you guys ask me about it every week. I'm
tired of it.
Speaker 4 (32:20):
Well, I don't know, because we didn't know. We didn't
know if you were aware of the fact that you
were getting nailed by the King, we just weren't aware
you knew that or not.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
I've been getting nailed by the king for so long,
I feel like I like a construction site. The cat.
I'm tired of getting nailed by the kid. The cat,
the cat.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Get him on Twitter or x at the old team.
Speaker 5 (32:48):

you say? Ow?

on your face, like all.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
The portal which is the uh well, it's a kind
of twenty four seven livestream camera in New York City
that is portaled or transferred to Dublin, Ireland.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
Uh, they pulled the plug on it.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
This is in part because of the raunchy and revolting
behavior that has run rampant. That's correct. Yeah, we saw
a only fans influencer, Ava Luis, who flashed some of
the locals there in Dublin. We also had a couple
folks in Dublin put up some signs of send nudes.
(37:29):
But apparently the plug has been pulled on the portal.
Dar Who saw that coming?
Speaker 4 (37:35):
You know, I mean, you know you can't.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Speaking of pulling the plug, professional golfer Royal McElroy is
getting divorced, which has actually led to an increase in
the odds have been winning the PGA Championship this week.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Oh yeah, I take that as uh as you stress.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
By the way, didn't he just win a tournament this
past weekend? He did, and then he and then he.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
When he broke up with a tennis player, Carolina Wolstiak,
he won a bunch after that too.
Speaker 4 (38:07):
All right, this is what he needed. It's a heck
of an idea.
Speaker 5 (38:11):
Yeah, I might be a new trend starting right now.
