PMS 1553 - PK Subban, Jacob Misiorowski, Kendrick Perkins, Mark Schlabach

Hello beautiful people and welcome to our humble abode the Thunderdome on this NFL schedule release PGA championship big sports come back Thursday May 14th 2026 this program begins now Sports that's right. It is the NFL schedule release day. Hallelujah We know who's playing who when and where here in America and around the globe I love that the game is obviously expanding to the entire Tips of the planet Earth and that more folks are going to be introduced to the greatest sport on earth and with flag football It's going to be able to expand more than ever easier than ever and all of a sudden We're talking 20 years from now 30 years from now the same type of thing to happen with the NBA Whenever the dream team went over to the Olympics and dominated and became basically bigger than the Beatles and exposed Everybody to a sport that they would fall in love with and then eventually potentially in this modern era I Must take over the sport. Yeah, well that same thing happened with football with these international games I have no idea about the dominance, but I do know that Roger Godell in the NFL loves if ball will be spread worldwide But some NFL fans here in America say what? What Paris do hmm to get a Pittsburgh Steelers game, but what? The Saints don't get to experience yinzers coming down to Bourbon Street because they've been preparing to watch that their vacations that they take once a year Revolve around Pittsburgh Steelers away games. What city sweet though? I'm going down and say what did Paris, France do? To get the Pittsburgh Steelers do Orleans Saints over there. There's some people that feel that way a lot. I Saw the reaction so let's go to the toxic table at Boston corner and One after the hammer died Cowboys AP tone tone NFL schedule released. They obviously we already know all the international games We know how some people feel yeah shrink the game some people are saying some we don't need that But I think for the good of all and for the good of the future of the sport I do believe if we were to have a global type situation. I think that would benefit us I don't think it would detract from us But as we go through this entire thing a lot of games moving overseas a lot of teams missing out on moments But remember we're maybe gonna add a game to the season soon with the next EBA Nonetheless tonight we find out most of all the prime time game you have some teams. They're just wishing for a night game wishing Wishing for some teams. Okay, listen. I'll be to speak Okay for those people the Indianapolis Colts the first year that it was allowed that you weren't forced onto a Thursday night football game Amazon comes in more money comes in it used to be Thursday night football Everybody plays on Thursday night football. This is how this goes So you get at least one prime time game a year as soon as they drop that little clause from what had to happen The Colts had no prime time games for two years. We made jerseys throwback to Indiana nights On the Indiana night The pain that they were trying to kill there's no night games had to wear that jersey during the day We find that out tonight. What teams are gonna be focused in prime time We know that the New York Giants already with leaks first week prime time. Whoa second week prime time Once again the schedule makers do go back on the hay. That's a huge market We can start to season with that. We know is gonna be watching which is certainly I guess a part of the entirety of the job But if they're ass in these first two weeks to John Harbaugh's kind of run You're gonna know it and that's gonna be a bad first taste in a lot of people's mouth for this new New York Giants But if they're great that could catapult them into a monster year over there in the NFC East where everybody thinks They're gonna have much more success than they've had over the past But there's a lot of teams looking where's the prime time games wins the prime time games And I think we can kind of get a gist of what the schedule makers what the NFL and what the overall thoughts are on teams with How many games are put into prime time for each team? They've certainly gotten it right over the last year two years There's been some down years where you can't really project injuries. Correct whenever there is a slew For a team of prime time games week five week seven week week five week six week seven whatever sure week five week six week eight if there's injuries or your teams asked or in that time That is a big showcase to the world that your city sucks. Yes prime time back the back to back And it could be a great thing to be on prime time But if you're on there in the wrong time boy That's gonna be a hard narrative to kind of fight against for the rest of the season not that narratives matter But it certainly makes your life a lot easier if you're in there But if you get a prime time run here and your team hits it like the Giants the first two weeks Yep, whoo whole story is different vibes different. I assume confidence is different And maybe the story of the entire NFL season could be different tone Yeah, I as a Steelers fan I used to love prime time especially when I was younger because I didn't care about staying up past midnight or whatever and they were always Really really good on prime time Ben was thrown for 500 yards a game on prime time stuff like that. That was awesome Now you fast forward to these days when they have not been so good on prime time and you look at their schedule And they have three straight prime time games week 12 week 13 and week 14 So the whole country you're on blast for the whole country if you're not playing well, yes That could be bad for fan base some fan bases just love They're just so Used to going to that one o'clock game their tailgates the same they always go at the same time They always come home at the same time. They're good for Monday morning But no like tonight with a prime time games There's like if you're a Seattle Seahawks fan you want every week to be prime time like you're so confident in your team You're like especially out on the West Coast because that's so much earlier here on the East Coast Yeah, you love the prime time games, but no yes There are some of fan bases that love them and some that hate them and there's been leaks of games Patriots kicking off the season potentially con man What have we been learning about the NFL's? Slow rollout of a few games here a few games there Thanksgiving Eve we learn on Netflix yes to Goliaths battling then the the leak Thanksgiving Day kind of set up marquee could be an incredible Thanksgiving it does feel like we're starting to learn a little bit more about these schedules days in advance as opposed to everybody waiting until like 8 p.m On Thursday night, which is what I think they used to try to do with this whole thing. Yeah, exactly. It's kind of fun though, you know like Especially right now where we are kind of scratching and clawing, you know, there are playoffs in the NBA NHL and that's been fantastic But the PGA championship, that's great the NFL drives the ship. Okay, so now we have some things to circle on the calendar I mean for a Patriots fan right now You don't really want to be on prime time just because then everything is front and center and everybody To talk Okay, yeah, we open the season against Seattle and yes Cardi B's just mad at her baby daddy Okay, he's not on New England anymore, so I'm sick of hearing about that too But could be could be might be probably will be but for right now in time I also party, Steve on we're happy see a glad to be happy Yeah, glad to see them talking in the same area, but now we know now I know on Wednesday November whatever it is before things given I'm gonna be watching Packers Rams That's remarkable because sometimes when you look at to him and you mentioned like teams being injured and stuff the bangles and Ravens kind of come to mind from last year at least that we're in prime chiefs towards the end of the season Those teams come to mind it feels as though they've hit the ball kind of right where it should be as far as early in the year Like the first week is gonna be fantastic as far as prime time games go and then the rollouts of it I think the schedules are just hilarious some of those big teams the Giants We have all 17 of the New York football Giants games, so that is what kind of somebody got anxious Yes, someone just wants everyone to know like hey the Giants are one of those teams I could be hey fourth overall pick to 30th pick who are making a run in the playoffs and that might be The story of their year now you get to look at the schedule. Holy shit. Here we go Hi as a Patriots fan know hey Seattle week one who knows week two Pittsburgh. We're gonna beat the shit happen Okay, we are going to at least have After week two still has got three straight prime time games brother in mad at meaningful football season They're already looking forward to know yeah, that's what I'm saying is the schedule makers think I think the NFL thinks wait a minute Maybe the Pittsburgh Steelers are a pretty good football team now We do know that all these prime time options have the ability to flex out a lot of these networks have not used the flex out option Every time that we as fans have projected them to use the flex out up I think it has to be like 17 days in advance or something like that or three weeks in advance You can't start until week 10 You have to give a heads up on one of the predictions because if a team is just Decimated with injuries and they're on prime time two weeks from now I think you are allowed to flex that out for another game But then now with all the games having rights for what you got to negotiate the rights out of that I don't think it's just as easy as pick them out and get them out of there But we would like it to become that easy please we would like that to start happening We would like every week whatever teams are good playing on prime time and that's what these schedule makers are trying to do We will watch it tonight the official schedule release show will be happening on prime time eight to ten p.m. Eastern on May 14th That's a great day great day. I'm gonna learn so much here today We're gonna learn what teams are potentially not gonna be asked in who are we gonna know nothing about going into the playoffs if they end Up getting hot and winning because there's gonna be teams that are gonna be one o'clock across the board regional television Oh, yeah, and then all of a sudden they're not great. Yeah, right a young nucleus comes together in rallies and maybe they always Rise so you can try to speak something to exist. What's that? You just talk about the Colts Hey, we don't have any prom time games. Danny Dom's gonna call for there was the number one offense in the NFL through 10 They were it's not even worry about they might want them out there tonight eight to 10 though as the NFL ESPN crew alongside Kyle Brandt Representing for the NFL network. Dan Rolofsky fresh off a speaking engagement in Richmond. I know he's got it It's old train station also current train station. He's a there's a train right over there tears It's been thinking about that since we talked about it. He's the best Dan Rolofsky tonight is gonna have so many opinions and ideas about things that he sees There's gonna be obviously the mile high football games in Denver, you know where it travels a little bit further Maybe a little bit harder to breathe late in the season Who has to go out to Denver whenever maybe your little beat up and banged up throughout it Who has to go to Denver early? Maybe their lungs can't handle the altitude too early in this entire thing Who has to travel down to Miami in December? Northern team that is used to the cold then they go drop down into the massive humidity Is that more of an advantage or a disadvantage? Can they not be able to handle? How about early in the season in Miami? Somebody has to go down there and just There's a chance that that is uh quite a benefit Laura Rutledge, Andrew Hawkins, Shraigie, baby, Kyle Brant, Schefter, and I believe Joe. Is that Joe Buck? That is Joe Buck Joe looks young They're still glowing. All right. That's tonight. It's the time we can't wait to follow along last night It was in the title of the this show today's uh, uh show name is an infill schedule release Okay, because that's happening right now important pj championship happening right now We got boots on the ground that we will be talking to in a second hour down there Already some immaculate highlights. Yeah, John Rom representing live holds out from a hundred and one yards out for an eagle this morning cam smith Represents here's john rom with that short baby backswing because of uh the way he was born with his foot So he takes a pure. Oh, that's gorgeous 101 yards out. How you doing keeping moving? That's an eagle at a major My name's john rom cam smith representing live It feels like maybe a weight was lifted off these guys, you know, maybe we're watching on tv more Maybe they're playing a little bit different Maybe now they know that there's a light at the end of the tunnel where maybe this will all get resolved However, the case goes and maybe the live guys really shine this weekend or They don't The sky shuffler rory and the big dogs just kind of do their thing Bryson D shambo tapped one about 50 feet by a hole this morning. That's the mink, baby I mean that is uh, you're right. That is the uh, ronam and and uh, the pga championship plays tough What should we be expecting and what was the gambling move here for this particular attorney? Go ahead? I know michael block was plus 500 000. I I can't wait to follow. Yeah, I sprinkle a little cheddar on that He's already so the story of the course leading up to this was uh, whether it was going to be wet or not They got a quarter inch of rain last night. They were they were figured if it was going to be wet It was going to play easier obviously if it's dry and fast it always plays hard But with the rain all week, they thought it would be easier rory talked about he doesn't really have um A plan this week other than to bomb it and then figure it out from there wherever it goes They talked about it being a bombers course all week long so we will see that but as far as gambling You know, it was your classics up at the top rory and scottie scottie was your favorite then followed by rory And then all the other guys that are normally up there your brisons your roms your ludwig oberg shawfley's uh, cam young They're all up the top there But no as right now the top of the leaderboard is a lot of uh guys you wouldn't think are up at the top But that'll filter out as the week goes on can't wait to continue to fall along with the pga championship live from fillion How the johns go can't wait to see who rises to the occasion in a major who's going to become Undeniable or who will come back to their greatness is scottie sheffler going to be able to put Perhaps is scottie sheffler going to be able to go crazy Is rory mackerel going to be able to continue with that blister on his toenail? He said he got a bigger shoe in his right shoe so he can maybe handle that while he's walking around the course We will follow along stand for steve. They're around the golf of scottie sheffler. No way that's cool They're just walking together. I don't know if you saw him in fairway the other round No, it was around. Oh the other day. Yeah, it was the other day It was dull roundo him scott fan pellets scottie sheffler walking the course I can't wait to catch up with him and see what he learned there. Are you going to pick it up? It's not just pj. It's also big sports comebacks thursday Hey huge listen When you're watching the game This is why sports are the best because everybody has to feel it you have to feel it When you're watching the game you have an idea of what's going to happen at the end of the game because of how the Rest of the game has begun for instance Usually there is a chance that a team just goes wire to wire and you feel that way at the beginning You feel that way in sec or half time you go this is kind of ass and then just it does finish that way a little bit of a Letdown, but you live to see another day. Yeah, but sports provides something so magical I think movies are trying to do this to you movies are trying to make you feel a certain way Songs are trying to make you feel a certain way throughout the song. That's why there's so much like Climactic build up for all these things Sports have an opportunity to make you feel something that nobody else can make you feel It can make you feel like some team is about to get pounded and then in real time you see inspiration in real time You see resilience in real time you see grit and then you see People become the happy side of a game as opposed to the this is ass side of the game All because they execute and when the moment is its biggest when the lights are its brightest You show up and last night three sports hit for us Last night three sports had miraculous comebacks fun comebacks Incredible comebacks things that make you go. Wow if you fell asleep. Yeah, missed it. Let's start with basketball Shall we let's go to Detroit with m&m and 50 cent court side 50 cent rocking Detroit stuff with his guy Marshall Obviously those two have incredible history together They've made maybe two or three of the best albums in history together and I'll tell you it looked like it was Cade cutting hams night it looked like it was the stones night so they collapsed they're feeling the stretch And then Cleveland 90 run to end the game to send it to overtime pick up the wind and overtime Everybody in Detroit was rocking their hands into 313 having a blast that they were about to beat the cavs And instead what happened is donovan Mitchell james harden evan mogulian the boy said excuse me Is this thing ended yet? And the Detroit business like yeah Yeah, we're already out of here cabs turn it on close the door get to overtime big time win huge comeback Congrats to the calves and is that a heartfelt with uh cool later blood over there last big perk in about 25 minutes Whenever he joins us obviously he's had a lot of thoughts on his calves team Obviously a lot of thoughts on his stones in foxy. You were one of those guys who thought Mom's spaghetti you weren't even nervous You were there was no worry. You were you were feeling great for that. You were texting stones, baby M&M and 50 cent bruce is texting into the group. What the hell did dolin Dude a 50 cent. Why is 50 cent in everybody else's gear? Basically, what is going on? I think he was just supporting m&m. Obviously m&m supporting the city He's become a big time figure in the sports culture up there in Detroit performing putting together Performances showing up at every game loving the teams. That was a huge night last night for Detroit That's how it was supposed to be. Yeah 100 pat if you would have told me that m&m and 50 cent were court side of the game And that kade cunningham would have 39 points and we would be up by nine points with three minutes ago I would have bet a billion dollars at the pistons win that game Instead for whatever reason with three minutes to go. We did nothing on offense a bunch of shot clock violations And the calves just answered that's what they do and i'm gonna blame big perk because he woke up james harden James harden I didn't hear the chatter Since big perk said all that stuff about kool-aid in his veins So i'm mad at him and ultimately i'm mad because we have an all-star center That's not showing up. You're not going to win games if you're all-star center hasn't showed up for the entire playoffs kade's doing his best But he needs some help so we'll see kade looked locked in last night. That was funny. He is spectacular And obviously basketball has that massive comeback in front m&m and 50, which we don't like okay We want stones do your thing. Yeah, we'd like that night to be legendary Who knows what happens they put a microphone in 50s hand afterwards and m&m's hand on the court right there I got a chance to experience a 50 concert just a couple weeks ago. Yeah Yeah 100 and three still on the tape. By the way, we got jacob mizroski joined us here in about 13 minutes He threw 49 pitches over 100 miles an hour last night. That's a record obviously He'll be joining us from the brewers rookie sensation. That's what 50s still doing on the mic I assume m&m is as well. That could have been one of the greatest nights in history in detroit last night Yeah, absolutely. I mean Am I crazy to say that those are the two like greatest rappers of all time right there like together in one place like it's insane Hey, listen, you said stans and you got judged for that. So if you want to judge rappers as well, you can certainly get into that game I appreciate you doing that. Let's pivot away from the basketball comeback. Let's go to the nhl. Hey listen Three zip this avalanche team cooked they lose one game finally in this series and they can't respond Nope, we wondered about teams that had clean sweeps going throughout the playoffs 404040 are you ever going to be able to have to deal with a loss? What about when adversity strikes? How's the locker room the change room going to go? Are they going to start pointing fingers or nubs at each other? Are they going to be able to handle the loss? Adjust and move forward the avalanche lose to the wall. Uh, oh Oh Has quinhues Figured it out. Maybe perhaps And they go down three nothing. I think you turn on tv. It's three nothing. Why don't you? Holy shit quinhues has done it going back to minnesota. Wow And then all of a sudden you have lanshed why don't you guys check some stats real quick Is this a one period game? Is this is this a two period game? Or is there three periods in hockey? We would like to know in the first period of playoffs. They have no idea. They're playing in the game They have no clue what's going on minus two gold differential in the second period plus two. Hey, not bad here That'll do it third period. That's why we're doing the flippers in the pool We are training at altitude all the time. We are in better shape than you We will pound you plus 12 in the third period and obviously they come back from down 3o last night to win In a thriller to basically celebrate them being what everybody has said they are This team's the one potentially and has been since the very beginning joining us now is the 13 year NHL vet Amanda will tell us a little bit more about what this meant for this avalanche team and what this means for the playoffs going forward Ladies and gentlemen friend of the program pk's who ban Yeah pk Youth rock Oh Man they were doing that last night in in paul rattles uh change room i assume going Holy holy holy shite Down 3o they come back. What did they say for you and were you worried about them early that maybe the adversity came and they weren't going to be who they uh Were potentially for the rest of the season ironically Ironically at the time when minnesota had looked like they were going up three nothing and there was the debate on whether it was The goal was going to count or not. Dave gibson from espn had called me and we were discussing that and he's like Oh, is this going to count? He's like man. I don't know. This doesn't look good. And I said well this game is long from over It's long from over and the reason why is you look at that second period when colorado scores with You know under 10 minutes. I think it was left in the second I think there might have been two minutes or three minutes left in that changes the whole game, right? They get the goal now. They go back in you know, they're going to get another goal and to me their execution Down the stretch being down three nothing and we saw minnesota do it come back being down three nothing for three Earlier in in the series and then ended up losing the game to me colorado showed over this series that a their depth weight heavily on minnesota's non-depth in certain situations I I said it earlier losing middleton losing brodeen Those are t pieces even though you got other those are t pieces and big holes and colorado exploited it by their consistent Execution they showed that they have championship pedigree. Nathan mckinnon. My goodness I know the kentucky derby happened But he looked shot out of a cannon from the kentucky derby coming through the neutrals horse before he ties that he's an absolute horse So they got the star power in him and kill mccard to put it all together Minnesota's got that star power but too many holes right now for them and even as the management I'm sure if you ask bill garen or even john hines They're proud of their group because they know missing those two guys are key cause you're not going to beat a team like colorado Missing those key play you just can't do it. So I think what happened was bound to happen Uh, the the team that was well equipped for that moment is colorado and they're a well oiled machine right now Yeah, talk about a well oiled machine. Let's talk about the machine mckinnon who you were talking about 53 regular season goals that led the nhl seven playoff goals. He leads Uh goal scoring in a playoffs last player to do both is alexa vechkin the greatest goal scorer in the history Of the game. So I think he's in pretty good company. Obviously the change room is stacked and packed over there You know a lot was made of him and his flippers down there in that pool when people recording it And then we show you the goal differential plus minus from the first period second period into the third period Is it a chance at this team because they are at mile high which has been I think Everybody every scientist and every guru has come together and said hyperbaric chamber good, right? I think everybody has kind of came together and said that which is training it out to Are they the most you said depth obviously helps them But are they in the best shape as well at this stage? Do we think that is also something when you're bigger and in better shape and stronger Could that be a story of the avalanche team as well or am I making too much of the flippers in the pool? Actually being purposeful as opposed to just want to go flop around in a hotel pool I believe that they are First of all, Nathan McKinnon Over the years I've talked about kutcherov Being in that mbp situation and rightfully so for his impact on his team But two of men when you look at all of the top talents in this league Nathan McKinnon's got to be right there with kona mc david and he's such an explosive player You know personally, I've eliminated colorado in the playoffs. I've had many battles against nate Even though he's on the western conference I've seen him grow as an individual As a teammate and now a leader you hear it in his voice the way he does interviews all of those things His influence from sydney crossby jared bednar, you know the colorado avalanche as an organization Building that team around him. He is a product of all of that and and it's it's one of the best things that you're ever going to see Across sports right now what he's doing. I've got to give him real flowers because you know kutrov's been great mc david's been great But this guy's been absolutely the eye test the numbers test the entertainment The explosiveness the understanding of elevating this game in the moment Your damn right. He's in hell of shape You can't perform that way without being in superb shape and he's definitely mastered that You know when we thought sydney crossby set the standard for how you need to be in shape I think nathan mckinnon and mc david now But I think even nathan mckinnon to a certain degree that explosiveness and power in his game shows his commitment To being in the best shape possible mc david's from canada sydney's from canada Where where's mckinnon from? Canada Still got silver He did you know what they got a lot of Happy birthday jacky happy birthday jacky jacky Jackie jacky baby. Yep. Happy birthday to him. I'm seeing from yeah, we Uh, he's from michigan. He's a michigan boy. That the kid didn't go last night kind of looked familiar. Oh, no, he missed a wide open I do I do see that as a potential super positive for us So we appreciate him doing that for us obviously for everything he's done and the united states of america I was trying to get sydney crossby to be usa as well because he'd been in pittsburgh for 18 years That's a full adult right that can register to vote. Yeah in that particular city So maybe he came over and played for team usa seems like the canadian guys have a lot of pride in playing for syd love hockey's going to play in that ihl whatever the champions with chocolate. Yeah against Actually like how syd jesus christ you're 40. You just played another 21st season. Whatever just take a break They're the hockey's guys were addicted to the hockey upper. I mean they're actually yeah, but but pat syd also knows and he'll be the first to tell you this He's got to continue to play like he's still playing at a level That's all these guys that would talk about syds right there But he's got to take care of his body in order to do that He's got to keep playing like as you get older the one thing that guys talk about consistently is you got to stay on the ice You can't get away from the ice and he also He's been consistent this way throughout his career I'm setting example for the country and for players that everybody wants to play at the olympics Everybody wants to play at the major events, but you know the world the world championships is still important It's important for team canada for guys to get together like it is for team usa So syd doesn't want to bail out of those things just cuz right so for him. It's a double-edged sword He's got to play and he's he's our leader. So we got to see him all the time. We're in that jersey Yeah, we get he's grace. We are we are super duper human. Yeah a lot of great things. Yeah, he is He's he he threw a football 30 yards for a million bucks. No questions asked in the middle And then gino and letang I said, do you think he'll be able to throw this football through this hoop? They both immediately? Yes, he'll do he'll be able to do whatever whatever you need him to do If you had him do something else you give him a rubik's cube He never did it before he'll be able to figure it out. They're like he's a super human We've been very lucky in pittsburgh to experience him as penguins fans Obviously can't let lucky to have him. I think you should try playing for usa one of these though Just like see if you can you know as mathy kichuk goes for the triple gold Matthew kichuk is going to be the first american if they win the gold in this to win a stanley cup and olympic gold Anti world championship gold medals So there's only I think six guys that have done her five guys that have already done it He would either be the sixth or the seventh and the only american to ever do it. Sydney crossby. Obviously how many 30 guys 30 have done it, but he would be the first american there it is Okay, 30 30 have done it in the history of triple gold. He would be the first american That's what's possible and sitting crossby said you think you're getting in our club, huh bud? Let's uh, let's see how that goes. Let's continue to talk about the playoffs though. Shall we uh, Let's stay in the west. Go ahead connor. Yeah, pk another great canadian mark stone I know he's been out lately for the golden nights. I'm sure Ty has been pulling his hair out wondering what the hell is going on with them How important is it for vegas? Do you think to close it out tonight? Especially because you know colorado now we're mentioning how great they are But they might have a few extra days rest if the golden nights can't pull it out Which will make them even more dominant. Um, do you see this thing going 70? You think the golden nights can get it done. They had a great comeback the other night as well What do you think about tonight? Well, well, we have to give a lot of props and flowers to john portorella because what he's done with vegas since taking over Is exactly why they're in the situation that they're in now to take over this series Um, him getting more out of thomas hurdle Him getting dorfia To find ways to get on the score sheet not allowing these guys with the excuse to get pushed out of gaze pushed to the outside Or to have any other result than what's destined for him So I think he's squeezing the life out of him But the loss of mark stone It's a huge loss and it's a massive loss for them down the middle of the ice It puts a lot of pressure on eichel and marner and and uh barbyshev to have to deliver offensively So when you can get dorfia now who's not just a power play specialist He's breaking down place five on five and and can put some pressure on anaheim's defense And on some of their younger forwards to pay attention to the defensive side like to me that's the shift in the series It's that cutter gochie leo carlson Troy terry's guys are tilting the ice and they're doing it like as if this is their Fifth and sixth year and running the playoffs I think coach q and everybody in anaheim knew something that we didn't when they built that defense because They're built for this moment as well So it's hard to say because you can't count out those young players the size skill The the plays that gochie and carlson and these guys are making out there right now It's ridiculous watching these guys out there playing so Vegas is going to have to elevate and then at the end of the day. It's the gold tending It's dostal and and carter hard harder hard has been up to the task, you know Like tortorella. He wanted to ride with them for a reason. This is why so, you know We're seeing vegas kind of come together and if they can find a way to win this series without mark stone I think that says a lot about them potentially being able to compete with the colorado because you're gonna need everybody playing at that level And hurtles turned it on, you know dorfia is finding that consistency their d's getting active now I like what's going and they're blocking shots like torches got those guys eating pucks too. Yeah, we like eating a good d eating pucks much pucks. Yeah pound and d's Yeah, pound and pound and d's getting in on the d's banging dudes. It's all happening. Yeah They're getting them bang bodies. You got a body's pat That's it's a part of the game. No and guys don't want to do it They think they get on the score sheet and it's good enough. You got to wear guys down kill mccar last night He's holding his hand. He's wobbling up the ice You gotta wear you got to get in and bang guys sometimes. It is what it is Yeah, you need jam and sandpaper clearly You know a little bit of a little bit of grit goes a long way especially when you're just banging dudes Seven game series. You don't pound the d you're kind of screwed once you get to seven. How kind of screwed you're getting definitely screwed Yeah, yeah You're on a sideline. You're watching you're in the chair. Yeah watching. Yeah, I understand what you're saying It was a pucks and deep guy. I was a pucks and deep guy. Oh dump it down in there. Yeah You should get pounded. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You see it on the defense aside. Yeah I'm dumping it down. Here's the d there's trying to pound. All right. Let's uh, let's wrap this up, please Okay, let's do the hockey. Let's go to massive one tonight Obviously the environments are a topic of the conversation but much more go ahead tone Yeah, pk game four at Montreux was kind of weird There was a long long goal review which was weird and then obviously the puck off of the stanchion that goes in for a goal It was it was just kind of like a weird game. Obviously a great environment great game. That series is awesome What do you feel like it's going to be like Buffalo and Montreal tonight? Well, Montreal has to understand this One for seven on the power play is not going to cut it. Their power play has to put pressure on teams Why because you're if you get through this series, you're looking at a carolina They're not going to let you waltz up the ice and set up on your power play and if your power play Isn't effective if your special teams is is out of the game It's going to be very very difficult for Montreal now once again They they were able to win games with only nine shots and those things can happen I'm just saying the numbers don't work in your favor that way. So For them, they have to get connected on their power play good things. Cole cop feels getting active He's finding ways to get on the score sheet now and I don't think he was playing bad before so I slap kowski You know, he's gonna show up. I think if their power play gets going He's got to be the guy in front of the net. They got to get more net front. They're playing too far on the outside They're not shooting enough pucks They got to put that pressure on buffalo because they're a team that can score in the short-handed So you got to keep them at bay and for me Montreal's got to play fast in this series Buffalo is the faster team you could see it early on in the game and like marty said he didn't like their start Well, I understand because you guys aren't skating. It's against Tampa They lose that game in overtime where moza comes around the top because they're standing around watching for five minutes So for montreal if if they're gonna have success They got to be the faster team and they got to be connected on their special teams They got to get going. So that's how I see it from montreal's perspective Buffalo's just got to continue to do what they did get physical I like how lindy set the tone with saying that montreal's diving and flopping. Let's get some of that action going on in the game I like it. Yeah, gonna add to the environment and we'll see what happens today But you know, buffalo's got to continue to be physical and frustrate montreal that that'll work in their favor Who do you think would weigh in in a scrap the montreal blade boys? the buffalo blade gang or the lads down there from carolina Uh, uh, south jarvis boys jarvis boys jarvis boys which lad do you okay three groups of lads walk into a bar Three groups of lads drink out the entire bar One group of lads ends up walking out with the most unscathed appearance out of bar Although all the lads do high five on the way out and stack Stick tapped to towards each other on the way out. How would you view? How would you rank the three? Uh, I definitely have buffalo be a number one if that's the case. I think those guys they they they know how to drink Montrealers they know how to party, but it's all around the celebration of the team There's a lot of class and elegance in montreal. So I would suggest that montreal may even be third on the list I got the buffalo blade boys first Second and then who would be second after that carolina jarvis boys jarvis boys. They're from manitoba Yeah, and jarvis boys have said they're on peds fyi Yeah, because they said the reason why the one guy was getting a crank that thing is because he's clearly on Peds and they asked him if that was true. He said absolutely You know if they're jarvis boys, they probably played pock manitoba. I think that's a tough part of town I don't know. I've never been to montreal blade boys are probably french. So they're definitely third So he's they're playing with cork bats. They're corking the bat before they okay, which why not it's legal Hey teach his own man. Teach his own. I like it. Okay. So you got buffalo carolina canada That's what we thought. Okay. We appreciate you brother. Have a go on pk All right, but the carolina boys are canadians which does happen seemingly a lot in hockey every time we brag about our teams and they're like, hey, uh Seven canadians on your team. Just so you know, you basically are that ain't that ain't what that Ain't the fight that that ain't the rules Cindy crossby's been here for 19 years. Yeah, he's the answer. He said that before. Okay that boom. You're welcome Okay, he's basically american speaking of american. We got a major going on around here Yeah, pga championship ever in philadelphia american dream stories coming true every once in a while You'll hear a story about somebody that wasn't supposed to be in a place getting into a place In showcasing his talents to the world for maybe the first or tenth time ever Yeah, michael block is hot stop it at the pga championship His first hole hold 10 from 200 yards out 23 inches From 200 right where blocky likes it swaggering yesterday with the crowd He said i'm aiming right at that tree right there. Wait till I hit it pushes it a little The philadelphia guys boom Instead holy shite of a major Looking clean and the khaki puts it to 23 inches To start a pga championship dream block is hot, baby. The block is real hot Hot right now. Hey boy blocky. Come on. You up tone. Yeah Suck it tone Baby shut them up. Uh, we will come up. Look head. We will continue to follow along with the pga championship Let's go to another incredible story that is happening right in front of our face Ladies and gentlemen, we might have in our current society An ace pitcher in mlb Who is going to own the top? Maybe hundred fastest pitchers by starting pitcher in the history of mlb That guy happens to be a monster of a man Who I think understands what's possible? Chillest guy of all time. Oh, yeah, I voted in the all-star game early rookie You only had five starts or whatever gets voted a lot of heat for him going into the all-star game Maybe over somebody else he gets asked about it. Hey, I'm just happy to be here. I'm gonna be here, man Just happy to be here. I'm gonna be here. Let me go ahead and do it and then he gets on the mound last night 49 pitches over a hundred miles come on He's throwing a hundred miles an hour in this seventh inning These baseball batters are having a And then their eyes get a little bit tired as the game goes 103.6 is the max that he is hit. She this guy's outrageous his first four pitches last night 102 Soon as you walk on the baseball game. Here's first hit. Boom. Okay 102 miles an hour. I can't get much faster So 102 again 102 again 102 again then 97 See you off speed this guy's must watch from the bruise ladies and gentlemen the maze Jacob Mizorovsky How you doing buddy Doing good. How are you guys good? I hope you enjoyed the description of you that you were forced to listen to right there Didn't want to put you on the screen because of probably the discomfort But just know that is how we feel about you after getting to meet you. This is absurd what you're doing right now I remember opening day There was a 104 mile an hour bet that you and I would have had if you would have been able to lead the season with 104 miles an hour That would have been absolutely absurd But it seems like you're damn close and you've been throwing it. I'm getting there. Yeah So tell me how you feel Why do you think you've seen this extended amount of speed that you've been feeling and do you think this is just going to become your New norm For ever like is this just what the picture you are in who you're going to be? Yeah, I mean I I sure hope that's the norm I mean, uh, I think it's more just like a adrenaline coming into effect and uh And kind of going that way with it But uh, no it gets the Yankees like that was definitely straight adrenaline the whole game and was uh riding on that So it felt good. Okay. So tell me about uh, how old are you again? 24 Okay, so have you obviously been tracking your pitches for when did you hit 100 and how much incrementally do you go up Each year have you been tracking that and what is actually possible with you being at 24 right now hitting the speeds that you're Happening are we going to continue to build speed? We think longevity with the speed that we have like what do we think the forecast is for your arm? Yeah, I mean I think uh, I think it's going to stay right around this For you know as long as I can possibly do it, but uh, you know, there's no way to tell exactly how long that's going to last Um, but no, I uh, I started tracking speed in junior college That was when I hit I hit 100 my sophomore year of junior college and uh in the world series. So it was kind of cool Yeah, kind of cool seeing sure I bet that would be sweet. I mean what you're doing right now is just Very abnormal. I think you have the seven fastest pitchers in the history Fastest pitches in the history of mob for a starting pitcher as well. So it's like it's historic what you're doing right now because closers obviously Uh dron's child uh Chapman heraldus trappin. Sorry. I read his name earlier. I got a completely wrong there A relish chappan though. He had like 105.8 or something closer right now mason miller Uh yinzer he's out hitting 104 105. I think he's closer. So closers only have to come in get three outs So it's not an extended thing what you're doing as a starting pitcher is just Incredibly abnormal. Who do you talk to who do you call is it coaches? Is it other pitchers? Like how do you kind of? I don't want I don't want to say like gather intel But you're doing something that hasn't been seen before who do you kind of lean on and what is kind of the daily conversation on how we keep Your arm like this as you continue to grow into who you're going to be in the mlb Yeah, I mean there's a lot of talk with our uh Our staff in the uh in the training room and stuff like that of uh, you know arm care that we're doing in between starts and uh um, so no there's a there's always good, you know talks with woo and uh You know chad cheap cp, uh, you know all those guys they always have something they want to add and uh, you know We'll talk about anything and everything Last question here. Ms. You had cramps last night happens in sports I wondered about the blood flow in your arm. Okay throwing 100 Uh mile an hour at least 49 times in a game first time that's ever happened. Are you throwing 100 in any warm-up pitches? I'm Maybe Like I mean, I'm not like I'm not aiming for it to be 100. I'm more just aiming to Get my body moving again from the you know sitting and waiting in the dugout Because I'm wondering if you threw like over 60 hundred mile an hour pitches Just in the warm-up pitches, you know like it's not just the starting ones. You're also Rewarming up in there, but the blood flow. I would assume the whip and everything are you getting cramps in your arm Are you getting cramps in your body? What happened last night? And is this just something you're gonna have to change your intake whenever you're going to certain places? Yeah, I mean I had a had a cramp in washington as well in the hand string and Every cramp I've had this season has been lower body. So, you know, I think uh, I think it's just gonna end up being like Maybe a little bit more Food in the middle of the game like having like a you know, pv and j or something like that To you know get some more carbs in yeah, okay, so we're still figuring out how to be a pro right? Yeah You know, we're still yeah, we're still figuring out our damn routine in this I know the sky is the limit. That's how everybody who knows you around baseball talks about you. You're so fun to watch man We appreciate the hell out of you Thank you. Thank you. Do you think you're cheating though with how close you are to home plate whenever you release the ball Do you think that is a little bit? How tall are you again? I'm six seven. Yeah, and they're saying you're a strider too. Like you're like lanky six You're like, you know elbows way over table beer ball the wimby of the release point is seven feet six inches So yeah, i'm getting out there. Is that the most any in baseball or is there others? I I would have to look it up. I couldn't tell you off the top of my head. I like that You don't even know I like that you're the man ladies and gentlemen picture for the brewers A's for the brewers maybe the fastest arm in the history of baseball jayton miss ross Spent away from baseball the real miss. Hey, so you're seven feet six inches release spot. What is normal? No, I do. It's a great question Let me look at somebody somebody'll have that as what's randy johnson's exactly he was 611 Yeah, so what is it because they talk about him strut like he I guess a big part of his pitching is he gets very close to home plate I mean it is like on purpose. I think seven feet six inches him known as that out anyways He's the man skeens always on tomorrow baseball obviously has some magical stories developing through their season Which only has 400 games left which we'll certainly try to pay attention basketball not a lot of games left Not a lot of games left. We got to enjoy them all especially when there's a massive comeback in front of marshal In 50 come on ladies and gentlemen joining us now NBA legend in champion 15 year event kendrick perkins My god park good to see you. Thank you for joining us. You look spectacular I just want to let you know that I want to let you know you look uh amazing obviously the blue hue around the blue suit it appears is You know fantastic. I'll have you know I try to do what I can when i'm in my home studio pat You know, I don't I don't have to make up all this and stuff like this So I try to you know color coordinated do what I can Especially when i'm coming on here with you know my god. Oh, you're at home. You're at home right you're in shorts right now This is uh, you're exactly you're exactly right shorts. No socks. You're top only Hey business on top party on the bottom. We get a you're a mullet of outfits right now Okay, let's talk about last night. You want to talk about business and then party 9o run to end this thing for the calves to send us to overtime They steal a win in detroit kade tonningham obviously goes bananas, but they can't finish it down the stretch Evan fox diehard pistons fan says this is your fault because whenever you did the whole james hardon cool Aid or blood thing in his heart. Maybe you woke up the monster now james hardon in his post game interview after he went crazy Had this to say about the outside chatter You've been in the league for a long time. How did you silence the chatter tonight and have this sort of response in game three? What chatter? What chatter? That's exactly the answer to the question. What chatter? I'll play basketball and You know, whatever this team needs me to do. I'm gonna go out there and do it so You know letting the game play out For quarter my number was called and I go to work But you know they made a run Up 17 you've seen it before and stay composed And win the game and that's what we do what chatter obviously got really loud You were a part of that your thoughts on what you've seen from james and what you see from this cap scene finishing this last night Well, well first of all he was listening. I was a teammate of james So he heard the chatter and the chat chatter at the time was warranted But the thing that I've witnessed with james is that He's been more of a prolific score Looking to get buckets more so than trying to be a facilitator So when you think about james being a scorer and when he focused on doing that He's one of the greatest scores that we've ever seen in the game of basketball One could argue he was lucas before lucas when he had on the Houston Rockets jersey And no one ever doubted that james harden couldn't win you a few playoff games It's all about james harden completing the mission and closing out the series We know one games one two three and four He's going to do his thing and even in game five Game six and game seven. That's when we want to see him stand on business That's when I want to see him get his feet high But all in all he did what they bought him here to do Go on the road in a crucial game five and get a win With for his organization for his team their first road win, but I thought collectively This was a character win for the clement cavaliers Because donovan mitral double figures max truce double figures Evan mobly and jared allen both had a great night on both ends of the floor Completely took jail enduring out of the game So I thought you know being down on the road and the way that they came together and got stops And timbly buckets was a huge character win and Arguably the most important win of their postseason. Yes stealing one on the road Obviously great stealing one that you're supposed to lose obviously spectacular any vibes riddled Kind of sport which the mba is what does this tell you about the pistons? Are you worried about this because hey you got 50 and m&m there courts Who knows what that turns into I was at a 50 concert a couple weeks ago fountain blue Lost me. He's still got it. Hey, he's still got it. Still got it. We're talking jake of mizurasky We're talking 100 people on the pain if he wants to so if he was to get a mic m&m gets a mic huge playoff win You're already in an arena. It's gonna be one of the greatest nights in the history of detroit We could be having the greatest night in history to destroy one of them now graene got to win a title But i'm just saying this could have become something epic and he said just shit the bed down the stretch That's kind of what we see happens in sports. Obviously you get unlucky and everything like that What did you learn about the stones and what are your thoughts about kade cunningham being a guy? I mean he is a guy it feels like Oh, kade cunningham is a bona fide superstar. He just doesn't have a bona fide robin Tobias harris has been good for them But he's not a guy that's going to be a second option That's going to take you to where they're trying to go and ultimately get to the promise land and try to win the championship And I know a lot of people been giving a lot of damn heat to jail and during And rightfully so but the big fella is 22 years old This is his first real playoff experience him walking into the postseason and being relied and being relied on as a Second option offensive guy. This is one of those moments That's going to make him stronger and better in the near future the calves on paper Offensively they're better than the pistons. So when we look at this this series Yeah, I picked the pistons to win the seven but usually when you pick a team and win the seven That means you really don't really, you know, it could go either way. I'm not making excuses But again, all the calves had to do when they're doing it is match their physicality And we're seeing that from the bigs because let's be real before the playoff started The calves had a nickname of hostess cupcakes because they was creamy in the middle But now they're changing the narrative jared allen and eva mobily are actually playing like some brawn ass men now They're calling them the creamfield in the paint Yeah, twinkies. Yeah, I don't like that I don't like that one bit. Oh, I always hated the cream on the inside. I'm gonna say it What if I'd been in there I think there was cream inside hated it Give me the ho ho that has like the solid shit. I can't do those soft creamy Like a boston cream donut. I hate it. I hate it. I'm with you there. I bite in there. I think Oos is out. So not a twinkie guy. No, not at all. Get it out of my face. I mean the ho ho's got the cream inside too though Yeah, but it's a little harder crisp because it does the more like the Oreo cream Yeah, I'm talking about the texture of just like you bite into that thing and then You know, you don't want that. That's what he's saying. He's saying that's what they were saying Not on the basketball court. You don't know my mouth either your mouth. It sounds like you want that Perk I'll try anything twice. This is your fault perk. This is your fault. Yeah, we did not know they were calling them Creamfield down there. I'm happy they're changing that entire narrative. Okay. Let's talk about what's going on in the west Obviously, it's some pretty special stuff. I had somebody called me that said, uh, they're picking san Antonio Strictly because they have an alien on them. They have an actual alien on their team. Go ahead con man Yeah perk and he's not the only one it feels like castle and harper and even devin vacell Are kind of stepping up as they've gotten older throughout these entire playoffs You know, you mentioned durin being a young guy this team is fully young guys But they seem to be kind of meeting the moment, especially after popovich Told wenby and gave him a little pp whack for getting kicked out the other night coming off the plane But this is kind of the last Series that we're looking at here in the west until the okc one We don't have a game tonight unfortunately, but this would be the next one. What do you think for game six? Is this a minnesota, you know ant man force game seven? We're going back to san Antonio Or do you think wenby had that night off of reflection? Hey, I can't be able and guys know larynx Just because they deserve it. I just need to go out there and get 40 and 15 Every night and we'll win a title. What do you what do you see from game six here tomorrow night? I believe this series is going seven now We know that wenby has a hatred for losing and so do anthony elwes anthony elwes is going to protect his house It's going to be hard, but he's going to protect his house by the way can anybody tell julius randall that the playoff has Officially started because they need him they need him to be Arriving they need him to fix his damn body language They need him to be engaged and on both ends of the floor because right now he's getting pumped jay mc. Daniels Yes, one of my favorite players He's getting pumped and when we talk about wenby Let me let me tell you all this real talk and I really feel this deep in my soul 30 years from now in no particular order The goat conversation is going to go Jordan brawn and wenby This man is about to take this man has officially taken over the mba The mba belongs to wenby for the next 10 years This is wenby's world and everyone is trying to get an apartment in it I have never seen a guy that is so Dominic on both ends of the floor I'm already watching the greatest defender by greater the greatest defender I've ever seen with my own two eyes. We know that he's going to block shots We know his capability of being able to switch out and guard on the perimeter But the thing that stands out to me the most Is that when he's able to go and contest the shot With one hand and the other hand while he's in the air take away drop off passes to the bigs I've never seen nothing like that in my damn life special He's though. Yeah, he special is an understatement. I don't even know a word to describe him Yeah, I don't even know what to say about him no more He and this youth this whole narrative of this youth thing before I switched over and went to the spark I mean pick minnesota for this series I did come out and say that the san Antonio spurs could win the mba championship, right? And wimby kept saying we don't kill about people saying we don't have experience You know why because they have they young but like my grandma used to say they got old souls, baby Yeah, they got old souls traveled souls I mean when we heard wimby fresh out of the draft this guy from france is number one He might be the greatest of all time He was talking about how the universe and he kind of understand each other Then he went and trained with monks for his mind and then he went with kevin garnett then he's playing chest Then he's elbowing people in the face He's pump faking in the paint and passing it off. He's swatting. He's dunking this guy seems to be everything I'm excited to see what they say And pat i'm glad you brought that up because see Going train with kg A kemi lodge award and even our god jamal crawford See the training part is one thing But what people is missing is the knowledge that he's getting after the training those two that that extra hour When they when he takes off his shoes and all of a sudden they're sitting down and all of a sudden they get he's getting that Conversation that's what people are missing. Yeah, the game that is being shared.

I'm doing great. How about them calves last night? I know foxy's a bit upset. Yeah great win for uh-oh Ohio showed up in michigan Wow in the end in ohio remained kings in front of m&m and 15 crown of in front of a rocus Rock Detroit sports town I mean the whole 15 at one point they're down 15 at one point nine at there and they go in the 90 run to force What that's ohio great james. How are you shouting this out right now? I mean, maybe they should split maybe 50 and uh and m&m should come on over and come to the cap You have a celebrity fan you have mike the miss so congrats to you. That's really cool hawk. Thank you He's a huge superstar. He has been for 20 years. What's the last time he's won a match hawk? Don't forget about the gun kelly bruh Machine gun kelly as well. I do love m gk. He's awesome, but he doesn't go to the games He doesn't care about that's because he's working him and whiz right now Obviously about to go on tour releasing songs right now. They're both back seemingly In their absolute apex. Do not wait to hear that entire album on that note. Let's go back to this though the miss Maybe it has been since when did you say miss last one a match? I said 2003, but I believe i'm out of line I think he's won, you know, some no, I don't think so. What would you say would be some point though? Because that's uh, give me 2009 maybe No, it was like 2000 days ago. He's a tag team champion. Oh, yeah with our truth Yeah, yeah, I guess i'm thinking i'm thinking maybe mania matches. He hasn't run a mania match yet. He mania Okay, wrestle mania is obviously whenever the rock is involved Okay, because we're terra manning all the oos around here pal But yeah, the calves big time comeback shot to them. How about hockey? Do you see minnesota they had colorado just don and I three zip and then the colorado avalanche wake up Did you see the point differential per period for these lads? Obviously macar and mckinnon are outrageous and the goalie could stand on his head and the team is spectacular And they're in flippy floppies in pools so they can work out the lactic acid at a deeper level at mile high Seems like they're in better shape to everybody just absolutely Stomping folks as the game continues to grow on this is the classic take them out into the deep end It feels like with this avalanche team aj Yeah, it is and I guess I would assume if you're the coaching staff you're thinking like hey What do we need to do to get out to a hotter start? That's not every football coach talks about oh We need a fast start, you know control the game Whatever and colorado is good enough to where they get out to these super slow starts and they still just find a way to Pull it on them late. Yeah, and I think there is a chance that they just want to kind of see how the game is going to go Let's get a feel for this thing. All right, and then they like figure it out You know, there's I think erin could potentially be this way I think erin rogers first couple quarters. He's trying to figure out what the defense is doing You know then he come out and then in the end he has it figured out and that's why mike macarthur He's been on the record everybody else been on the record. It's like two men's role. We want erin's hands We won't ball in erin's hands. He has figured out the defense and what they're trying to do Maybe they're a team that just trying to figure out what the game is going to be. We know they're physical though Oh, yeah, they'll hit you late. They'll beat you down They know that in the third period you're probably going to be feeling a lot worse than you felt in the first period In a massive comeback like that great for hockey that has already been up into the right con man Yeah, and it feels like they're just smarter like even this last play. He's throwing it off the Side of the board so his guy can can go get it who isn't even supposed to be On the ice by the way and then for him to hold it, you know Like niggas wasn't supposed to be the guy who was coming on but he knew Exactly what to do and then even when you watch the the tendy the tendy's kind of waiting for him to shoot Comes all the way at the top of the crease and then pass. Nope We're going to the other side like they are their iq is even higher which it makes it feel unfair Feels as though they shouldn't be able to do this So kind of colorado being this good versus the vegas golden knights who use that ir cap space thing kind of two titans of hey That's not allowed coming together in the western conference finals will be cool And then maybe carolina to bring it home on the east. I don't like the way you're saying ethical roster building conversations Happened in hockey. They still do that. Hey, that's a good question because I remember the Tampa Bay lightning did this I believe the florida panthers did this with marshy. It seems as if the vegas golden knights were doing it They've done it a few times Yep, but what is the thing you basically put somebody on ir then her contract doesn't count and you can sign other people Then when the playoff start you can bring back the contract as a salary cap can be adjusted a little bit whenever it's post season Especially with an injured player retiring So you're able to kind of fill up your roster with more money than everybody else because you're designating somebody to injury Because their contracts won't affect what the salary gap is is that accurate necron? More or less? Yeah, but they closed that loophole so you couldn't no longer do that. That's why that's why stoner right now Genuine teasing piece before it was always like okay mark stone. Yeah, you're hurt for sure You're gonna last three weeks in a season Bringing people in but now for real. It's like hey, they need stoner back big time Yes, they certainly do good luck to all the nhl teams that are up into the right hockey has been Spectacular aj. Do you know what this is? Uh skull and crossbones what type of skull though, dude, you never you probably would know actually Oh, it was is that something to do with uh an author that we know? Oh, well, maybe maybe at some point and we do love jack car and that is certainly I believe his uh most recent book Fourth option is coming out Or is out Should be read by you soon out now go get it now fourth option this from jack car. We love jack car We love jack cars brain. We love jack cars commitment to our country We love the way jack car operates and he's also saved the world like three to four different times for us So if you can go buy jack car book, not only are you going to be incredibly entertained not only are you going to take a ride? This one is I believe about a retired ceo or cia operative Uh kind of getting back into like so this is going to be a great trip With jack car like every single story fourth option available now bill sat down last night said he was just going to read a chapter to find out What it was about said he read 15 chapters Just just immediately could not put it and we will say bill is one of the leaders of the jack car fan club Oh, he loves it, but how could you not be to be honest with the way he talks shout the jack car But now this is not from jack car a good guess though because skull and crossbone looks cool in jack car certainly that uh No, this is uh, this would be a jungle cat actually skull That's a jungle cat See that okay looks like a dinosaur. Maybe no that's a That's a jack So who was that affiliated with oh, oh the carolina panthers and watch out one right there pal Oh, there it is. Oh watch your tail get it Get it Watch your tail. Yeah, that has many different meetings. I guess does it they're great at the releases carolina has been O.g. Of schedule release remember they had to throw back back to whenever we were kids bicycle went into the house with uh Nintendo 64 I believe in the entire thing this one they say is going to be uh explosive this one They gave a little teaser. I believe there are bombs involved in this thing. So yeah, that's what we need to celebrate remember Tannerator bombs I think you're a b- tannerite was being used, but I do believe they did have quite a bomb effect There was a lot of this going on when I was watching all the videos coming out of eight or the videos are going to come out before the 8 p.m. launch on social media for the social media and creative teams to be on display Some of your teams and our teams are going to potentially have the greatest Products of all time maybe And then some social media creative teams digital teams are going to be on display for being asked tonight They we need to remember that and we should judge them. They're getting paid a lot of money They have a lot of bar some teams don't want to jump into the game and say hey like why don't we're not get we're about ball We don't need to make these types videos I think then you just probably need to get out of the nfl and go to like the ufl Maybe or something like that break it out of the marketing department if that is yeah, this is the nfl Okay, so you have a you're going to have to have a social media digital team that creates things Content for your fans because everybody else does it but I will say if you want to be just like an amish football team And do all that I would respect it as well I would say good on you for running your business that way, but that's not the case they employ and pay millions of dollars in salaries into Creative departments digital departments social media teams you're talking about these jobs Literally being a massive piece of what these franchises are to a lot of people I tried to explain way the early days of twitter. I was lucky to get on twitter very early in my life I'm not saying I was early in the twitter world But it was like talking to the quotes at the time about how important their twitter Account was because there's a lot of people who don't live in indianapolis That's our only interaction with the quotes is through that social media account. That's it only see what that Social media account puts out only know really what's going through there that was back in the day now Obviously everything's so widespread and we got a lot more content of everything But I think like the quotes have had like a social media department for a long time Now they're like fully invested Full fully invested in this type of thing and they're not the only ones I think it's like a majority of teams now understand that the hand is where these people are going to fall in love with our Brand now as opposed to just you know out and about at the stadium So tonight's a big showcase Of the digital teams and the creative teams and I think that's our big takeaway always is like this video is awesome These fuckers don't know ball. Okay, it's clear. They don't know ball. This one's awesome That's what tonight becomes and also who's getting all the prime time games who's playing where we already know the international games Now we just need to know who's going to be broadcasted to the world aj anything you're looking forward to I'm definitely looking forward to like I want to go to specific teams First off hate It's going to be fun to look at the list of how many prime time games certain teams have and then the teams that don't get any prime time And may get upset. I think the coast was that last year you were pretty Thanks, please just move on. So I mean maybe this is the year they're due right with dany dimes there I think they're going to have a couple prime times correct. I would hope so listen Well, you never know. There's so many prime time games now though with all the different There is every day's their point like there's a lot more I guess that you could consider prime time Yeah, so if you don't get a prime time game with how many prime time games there are now I mean that's a real problem now. We have an international game So we do know we'll be the only game on in the morning, you know, indiana mornings on indiana time No, but it would be nice to get a couple more prime time games because it's good for your team Unless your ass giants weeks one and two prime time games If that's a slow start for harbaugh and jackson dart, that's going to get real loud Really by a lot of people but that comes with being a giant. Ain't that right bruce? Yeah, the second we are hey, are we maybe going to be decent? We're gonna have a ton of prime time games. That's just kind of how the cookie crumbles Um, I don't I don't love it But like our cowboys games like we lost a ton of close games last year and our cowboys games were we're both bangers So hopefully they will be at least fun to watch even if we do get off to that slow start Also, I do believe and definitely check this but I think new england and seattle Both started either two and two or one and two out the gate last year and then you saw I know they both definitely lost week one Because it was the first time ever the two teams in the shubble were oh and one after week one But that is one of those things we're like new culture might might be a slow start and then in prime time So loud are you a little bit worried about the houston texans? We got this in the mail earlier today a j hawk and the pms game It's well, all right. That never happens true It'll all make sense on thursday, huh? That's a good hand some pads with one You got blood on the shoulder pads. What's coming tonight for you from the houston texan schedule release I don't know something. I know that son of a bitch toro is probably up to no good I know that there's some jokes that some people are probably gonna be making due to low hanging fruit And then there are some things also that you know Maybe we'll see uh come in some sort of video. I typically am a pessimist when it comes to this stuff Oh great They're gonna make us show these bloody shoulder pads and there's gonna be some stupid mickey mouse thing that we're gonna have to wash Tonight and be like oh, this was good when it isn't however the texans are one of those teams Like the chargers like some of these social media teams that you can kind of hang your hat on Them being great bloody shoulder pads. Uh first thing I think of is brian cushion when it comes to houston texans I don't know if there's some or jj could yeah jj wad. I don't know if they're not jj. Waw I don't know if there's some sort of rabble connection as well since he coached there in houston But I do think that it will probably think they'll be taken I think we could probably assume that that one's not I'm gonna guess that a lot of these social teams that saw new england on their schedule I'm like oh, I got a great idea for our schedule reveal when it comes to doing this This is why you've been kind of against it Conner's been kind of against these social media teams getting a chance to be on display No, I just don't want to be let down I think what they have done the past few years is great videos like we all look forward to them now that they're out in gimmicks Now they're out in shirts now they're out in bloody shoulder pads Okay, the only the only once you get to the top with these social teams typically the only way they go is down And I'm not saying I think the ai thing has gone so out of hand that teams will now take pride In not using ai which I think is great actually So I think that will kind of go away a little bit But I do worry that some of these teams are just going to try and out creative themselves when they already have a great Yeah, that's why it's on display on who's ass and who's not big that is a big one I think the Colts are going to come back in a strong way after what happened last year They need what did they do last year was bad. They they didn't get the rights. Remember it was like minecraft or something And like multiple teams did another team had the rights already And then I think it was chargers did it. I think it was chargers did it And then Colts did it chargers got like the rights to it actually and then there was like a whole thing and the chargers Obviously was much better But I think there's been a lot of changes made good Brett michael's ladies and gentlemen, we have received an exclusive From the Panthers Yeah, we need a sound can we go back to the beginning? I mean jeez the ways we got an exclusive here We go back to the Next level where are we at? I got a bunch of the golf stuff up. So I gotta close those out and we'll go back to it Wait, wait, we're fucking I got few I got a few of the golf broadcasts up as well So That looks like ass I almost when I first saw it I was said a worse word, but that looks like ass. Okay. Well, I appreciate you not using the worst word We don't even know what it is. We haven't even heard it. We've no you Why can't we just put up a schedule with words and where we're at and who we're playing You're big strength the game. It's the game man. That did look like a send me a send me a Send me a magnet. I could put on my fridge. Okay Send me something I could touch. This is your 2026 magnet right here No sound I mean are you kidding me? They're just too they're gonna come after us There's no sound okay, what was that what was that we hear sound this is just a uh, is that their new logo? Okay, what is what kind of information did we gain from this that they're using a their mountain steel There's some good videos out there. Okay, so there's no sound All right, I will say that was kind of ass See that was stupid to give us see what I mean. That was a bad idea to give us that but it'll be a part of a much Maybe that was out of context. No sound. Yeah, right like that should not be giving us Like give us a little bit more. That's a terrible towel there though. Obviously getting sure and shredded right there That never worked out. Oh the Florida panther is speed. Oh, I You think that's what's happening. Tell you what I like what they're doing, baby It's never ever ever been a good idea to do that to the terrible towel A lot of teens have been cursed by what that just happened. Oh with the explosive. Okay. That's a okay So now i'm starting to piece it together Right to a bomb ends up in someone's butt because wash your tail All right, let's move along. Let's get away from this. Let's go to a major police. We Don't ever know Watch your tail. That's what it says. Yeah Probably isn't bombing a butt. Maybe that's what it is actually maybe that's the sound Just saw us through you never know the cats That's the sound of the where's the where's the cat going? No, it's just the sound that goes right through the terrible towel October 17 There's a chance. I just found out we play the panthers. That's awesome. That's a w I don't know if that's true. That's a football team. There's football schedule. It is a good football team Possibly a great one after that draft. Yeah, we'll see also with this schedule release Let's go. Let's give a little grace here to the Carolina panther social team I don't think we should have been the ones to necessarily do what we just did right there But Dan Morgan is just tearing apart his office right now since Since that joining us now as a guy who's wasting his life in a tiny little cube over there Romantic ladies and gentlemen our golf expert mark slaw ball Slaw ball how you doing? I saw blocky go from 203 yards out to 23 inches on hole one How you doing keep it moving? I'm a major's champ. What other story lines do we need to know from the early starts here as another major kicks off Well, I mean pat, that's the biggest one. I mean it was an absolute dart from 202 y'all Oh, no Can't even compliment blocky arts, you know for a second there. I thought if you don't be uh Double the uh the third hole. Yeah, I did All right, let's go. Let's reconnect. What okay? No, the only thing we hear from him is that blocky doubled the third hole That's not fair. No, I'm not sure we reconnect with him. Blocky is one over you So but why do you think the universe oh, and he's back? Okay? So we couldn't hear anything that you said other than and he doubled the third hole Just want to let you know that that's all we heard and we learned that in real time I appreciate you bringing the actual facts and stats to us so we know who we can potentially get behind Who should do well here today you think? Um, I tell you I told you earlier in the week that uh D shambo or rom went in this thing would be the big storyline But but if jordan spieth wins he'll complete the career grand slam And then he's in a four-way tie five-way tie for first right now At three under just had it back to back birdies. I mean it would be the biggest story in golf bat Since tiger woods won the 2019 masters. I mean he's still a guy that moves the needle a fan favorite He's a roller coaster. I love him because he plays golf like me after he hits a bad shot He's like god you suck. You're terrible um And you know you got a five-way tie up there pot pot Geter from south africa um came into the week ranked 127th and putting He's getting five strokes on the greens right now probably not going to sustain that stefan jager From germany. He was number three in datagolf's course fits this week I didn't take him and then uh men will lead the chef who's cooking this week and cook like hell when I took him in the masters in my pool Yeah, chef could potentially go crazy. Did you see a guy was late to teabox for hole one garak higo shows up a minute late They uh give him a two-stroke penalty before he even tees off He would go on to double bogey one here has any how often does this happen in a major? Don't you kind of know where you're supposed to be when you're supposed to be there? This feels like a very amateur mistake. Was he potentially just maybe dumping his pants like what maybe he didn't make a putt on the putting green before going over This is like I gotta make one before I get like how do we get to this and how normal is this? Uh, it happened back in 2019. Um at the pj championship of beth page black. It's rare It's inexcusable. It's probably you know not to blame the caddy, but that's kind of the caddy's job to make sure he gets there on time I can't figure out if he knew before The end of the round or if they told him in scoring because he seemed quite surprised and had a long Conversation with pj of america officials in the scoring tent. You have the kid credit though. I mean he shot 369 Uh, or she 367 the rest of the way and if it wasn't for that two-stroke penalty He'd only be one shot off the lead had to be so uncomfortable. I I assume it had to be a You know, maybe I wanted them philly cheese steaks over there with some uh extra green pepper Oh, jeez a little bit of a couple in there and just had to get it out Is the putting green right next to First up like how yeah, they're they're they're right there. I mean he was only one minute late. There's freckler stickler for rules, but um Yeah, what you're saying is true. I guess it would be the true definition of body time Yes, it would be a jay has a question for you mark Yeah, I know they got a lot of rain. I believe yesterday I guess we've watched some different clips of guys putting the ball off the green and stuff Are they like are we expecting these greens to possibly dry out and get super fast as the weekend comes? Yeah, a jay. I mean, it's a donald roth cross course So the the greens of the defense guys have talked all week about there not being Much strategy off the tee as I said earlier in the week. It's kind of a gripping rip it course off the tee at least But uh, you saw bryson struggles. He chipped off Put it off the back of the green to about 57 feet away past the hole um Lot of spines a lot of uh slope They got about a quarter inch of rain last night. It's not supposed to rain for the rest Of the week I get up to about 89 degrees on sunday So they can make these things as diabolical as they want the the pen placement on number four today is is absolutely Lethal and there's still some room back there for a for a something they pen Okay, we can't wait to see where they decide to torture these guys Throughout the weekend is another major's at hand. It's not just obviously the course conditions on the ground How about in the sky go ahead ton man? Yeah marky marky looked windy as shit when we were watching the Earlier rounds there. Is that supposed to be something that's constant this week? I mean even on you know, uh rombo's holdout it looked like the uh flag was going fast are we expecting a very windy round and how much do you think that's going to affect these guys as they try and figure out these greens Yeah, I mean look it's about controlling the spin most of these guys are bominet Uh, you if you get a wedge in your hand, you got to control the spin the false fronts 15 16 miles an hour I think that's absolutely why michael block yanked his t-shirt down the left side on number three and the easy Come on into a bunker. Look guys. We watched him putt the other day on the putting green inside 20 feet Never missed Yeah, absolute machine. That's what he's saying. Be it at 20 yards longer You know hit it as far as roey. There's no teller. All right. I mean that that's true It's okay. You mentioned the ball. He said it himself. You mentioned the ball mark What's the deal with cam young's ball? Why am I seeing people calling him a cheater for using some golf ball that Everybody basically uses what what's that situation there? Yeah, I say he's more of a visionary ahead of his time You know the usga and the rna which two of the governing bodies are talking about changing the uh testing Standards going forward starting in 2030 that to get 15 20 yards Off the drives shorter make them shorter so the the courses don't become too obsolete cam young unknowingly had been using a ball that that is going to be uh Approved in the future under those new conditions and you know, he started using it to wind and chip wind them championship Last year and and that's the first time he'd won on tour after seven runner-up finishes I think use it again at the players this year and uh down at deral a couple weeks ago when he went wire to wire so You know golf geeks love it. I can't stand it right and about anything more than roll back You're the best because you are a golf geek, but you certainly don't ever portray it You certainly sound like an optimist about everything that we ask about over there in the golf world And that's why we love you schlawbalk appreciate you man. Enjoy the time over there I was happy to go out today Well, the first thing we heard you say was he had double on three blockages doubled that was the That was the only thing we heard from you everything else froze up. So literally your first words were Yeah, yeah, but let's You know, it was good. I liked it Well, you know like I put a second there. I thought look if you don't bury the first you can't bury all 18 here we go Bingo, that's what we're talking about. Listen to the optimist ladies and gentlemen your next shot your best shot with mark schlawbalk Hey What a stud that guy is b. A. Is The man he's go dogs ladies and gentlemen blocky's back to even after a phenomenal coupled Come on 13's a par 4365 yards 13th and whenever it comes to How hard the hole is compared to the rest what normal score is he has a birdie to start this thing We saw from 200 yards out schlawbalk just said inside 20 feet he never misses. Yeah, that's sweet. I mean he's playing That'd be fun. Could be a lot worse bryson's uh Seven over oh D sham bro. Yep Yes, youtube golf has been cutting it out Easy, what are you talking about? Hmm? What are you talking about as a youtube golfer now? He's only playing major championships and I guess he's only gonna be playing the first two rounds of major championships That's not true Just because he rolled one from one side of green d r side of green got him bummed out a little bit very yeah Got him bummed out a little bit. He moved on. Oh, yeah, he also had it hit from someone's front porch too I mean tiger woods was a scrambler as well. We don't know what d sham bows you're gonna do tomorrow on this course You're right. It's gonna be tough. But yeah D shambo seemingly going through it a little bit. He's got he seemingly going through it a little bit We hope he finds his way because whenever he's golfed What a moment for him. We got kids staying on stages next to t-boxes on 14 We got uh, I love that. There was a hey, did you see the elevated there was like five ladies who had yeah The elevated stages on 14. I guess the lads just right next door. Oh, yeah, it's right next right. It's right behind our house What do you mean right behind our house? Well, like there's like an eight foot fence and then it's hole 14 right there It's one of the benefits of living on this course. Is there any way you can fix this for us? What if we built a 10-foot kind of like rise sure the course loves that sure the pj loves that The bros over there like yo, you could do that. Yeah, let's go Bro, we will hey They're just standing there just right above them. Good luck boys. Think about sunday 14. Oh, it's gonna matter. They're about to see blocky Yeah, oh hold on to the lids boys at 14 They're gonna want to explode up there from the riser You can't hold your blocky. Yeah like excitement in just a little bit more till it gives you one of these Hey, throw me a beer. I'm sure let's shotgun one right now boys right after I drive this thing 250 freaking yards It'll be no surprise if blocky post hole 14 today scores a 600 after he runs into those. I'm going back. I gotta go back Yeah, I ladies and gentlemen, uh football is king. We understand that we're lucky for it And if you're a super bowl champion and you represent a city you're gonna be asked to voice over the open to a major for golf How much is philly figured in the history of america? and golf I am at liberty to say and that says everything My town has seen it all huge moments made possible by men determined to set a new course or tame it all along Philly demands respect for all stands for and everything it's seen inside stately buildings and on tricky fairways and greens Here where independence was declared We the people are united by love of country city and this week the pga championship Well done good work dominick very good very good We the people could understand every word Who else was in consideration you think for that nobody jason kelsey maybe but I assume he's got something else going on wall book I What the fuck was that that was unbelievable Was he not an eagle you wanted to be vince papali? Okay, maybe vince papali Nick cage from national treasure might have been up there. We're just doing philly movies now Yeah, just just people who have appeared in philadelphia. I mean stalone would be incredible alone tom hanks You're talking about that one from way back whenever he was philadelphia with denzel Yeah, absolutely. I guess that could be a good tie. What about coop? Oh, yeah They missed they screwed it up Maybe sunday to have a special presentation where he's there live and he like starts the whole tournament Yeah, I assume there'll be multiple things. I assume they'll see rianne better get in the game too But I want to see him up on at haraas. I think they asked them to but big down was like no just me Uh, we got a massive deal happening down there in miami divan a chain Has reached a new to four-year 68 million dollar contract with 32 million Guaranteed shoalty is the one that reports that shifter amplifies it Congrats at a dolphins getting the running back signed up feels like the running back position is all of a sudden getting a little bit more paid Getting a little bit more appreciated. Is that a sign of the times or a sign of the players? Let's get a bubble gump. You know diehard dolphins fan This guy has been something that you've been proud of wasn't there a little bit of a contract conversation for like the last year So happening around him. Yeah, there was always rumblings that he could be traded, but I'm glad we paid him It is a rebuild. I get that but keeping guys like this. There's rumors. We're gonna pay jordan brooks as well These are the cornerstone guys of the franchise. You got to keep around Okay, aj as you're trying to build the future obviously with a couple different green bay packers people coming down to miami and kind of Turn it over the entire building. There is a floor for the amount of money that you have to spend It's fascinating whenever teams are like trying to figure out who they're going to be what they're going to be They pay malik a good amount of money to play quarterback They just paid a chan feels like they're trying to pick and choose what they want They're building to be through the guys that they're keeping around or bringing in and paying aj Yeah, I think that's like that's one of the toughest things That's what makes great gms and great like Scouts and evaluators and coaches like hey, yeah, who do we pay because you know that when your team is good You cannot pay everybody and when you're going through a rebuild you got to find Hey, who are the cornerstones that we trust to pay and who has also been productive for this Branch eyes and obviously a chain has been very productive for them. So good on him for getting a big extension I'm just glad that you mentioned it like I think the running back position has I don't know. It's coming back into a good light. It was like it lost its luster people thought you could just We can get a couple guys in there and we'll just give them the ball It doesn't matter. We don't need like a stud back and I think now that's we're coming back to that a little bit to Where like a a great running back can really really make a team like take them to the next level Yeah, gonna have to be too in this modern NFL. You're gonna have to be able to run the ball quarterbacks have to be able to Complete a pass. We're gonna need a third and 15 third and 12 At some point if we want to win a super bowl quarterback is gonna have to complete a pass There's gonna that is gonna have to be a part of your offense But if you can't run the rock you ain't gonna do shit in the playoffs You got to be able to run the rock got to be able to have somebody do it paying a running back Obviously to your point a few years ago was not worth the salary cap percentages allegedly to people And then you watch philadelphia eagles of seguin barkley when a super bow and everybody goes Oh, I didn't know that this is what this was and now everybody's gonna continue to mimic that We have jonathan taylor here in indianapolis. So hopefully we're rewarded with a lot of prime time games. Yeah, sure Hopefully because we got jonathan taylor, but I do like that that is a sign of the times of what football is We're pounding the rock con man Yeah, and offenses seem to be kind of taking like those top eight ten guys like there is a separator It feels like an hans one of those guys jamira gives bjohn. We're like hey macafe, of course We have a running back that we're gonna hand the ball to you know, 18 20 times a game But he's also gonna catch, you know, nine to 12 passes a game Like that seems to be the difference and an nfl offense is now that seems to be like a focal point Like hey, yes, han is gonna get the ball. He's gonna get tosses He's gonna get you know in between the tackles But we're also gonna put him in the slot and then he's gonna run, you know A bunch of routes the entire game like jeremiah. I love for instance There's a clip of him running just a little angle route and that in itself feels like In a complete game changer for some of these teams. Yeah, here it is. That's the one and it feels like covering that Yeah, if you're if you have a running back that can do both of those things You're in a very good spot to be paid Obviously that juke is filthy and being able to run a route is an extra weapon Especially because linebackers have to cover him with the way a matchup is for a running back So if you're able to get out catch and create magic you certainly become a quarterbacks best friend He's got tape on his left ankle or Little bit sort of looks he's supposed to look sweet. Oh, you think it's like a one glove type thing would do one spat Yeah, I think so one spat. It's not a bad idea. I don't think I ever really thought of that You were a click clack guy. So what you had to spat, right? Yeah, I did uh early on no question. It was the first year they had cleats and they were not uh, You know, they weren't licensed yet in the nfl the spat was so cool looking Yeah, that was the best it had such a good run feels so good too Oh, really you you like the cast like feel there you feel like you can kind of do whatever you need to do Yeah, I use I mean I spat it every day for practice and games, but I used like uh Like stretch tape though. I didn't use it wasn't like locking my ankle. It was not for ankle stability at all What was it for? Uh feel and it's just how I how you know once I started in college you weren't allowed to spat We were trying to trick Luke thick our linebacker coach come out for warm-ups No spat nothing on and then I every once in a while Luke would after our team meeting he would go take the elevator up to the box and we'd spat real quick And come back on the field and Luke was up in the box the game started He couldn't yell at us for spat and so we knew you had to win the game because we lost the game And when we spat it behind his back, you know, he might you know fight us. Yeah, I gotta win that Yeah, if you lose because of a spat especially going on his back Yeah, I think Luke If you lose, you know, it's because we spat it too though That's the thing you guys out here taping your your cleats in the bathroom after I leave the locker room What do you think I'm stupid? I know what you're doing. Well, you guys think you're you're special You think this is what you need and then we lose the game how you do anything's how you do everything And now I'm gonna fight you. There's a nice little spat there from I got kick bad and the shit I got real high spat there and that I like a little high spat little mid-range spat little low spat You're you're spatting yourself to those that don't know a spat is a taped ankle outside of the cleat looks really cool I mean it was a super cool look. I like that you're doing your own spat Okay, you're doing figure eights and L's around there and kind of going around up and down Uh, but the the sauce out of a j hawk could have never expected he was spattin himself down there with functional tape What's it there for just feels good, man? I just like the way it feels Locks you in and I never I never wanted to have my laces flopping around I always felt like you might click a you know a cleat might catch one of the loops Yeah, click black. You don't want it to do that It's Continue in uh football news. Shall we the ACC commissioner jim phillips? Uh started talking about playoff expansion and he dropped a little nugget about espn having some thoughts aj Yeah, um espn has been pretty clear with all of us that they'd like it to stay at 12 um, maybe 14, but no higher than 16 And and so that that is you know, that's important You know, there there are partner and there are partner with the cfp. Obviously, there are full partner here as it relates to the ACC And so we'll continue to talk with them as a as it relates to the cfp piece of it the championship game Part of it. I don't know. I mean that's down the road, but I have said before it's I you know When you look at championship games and and if you expand the playoff to that number I think you end up going from regular season right into the playoff I just I just think you you end up doing that Okay, so obviously a lot of people have opinions on what the next schedule looks like what everything looks like what the playoff Obviously looks like we're in the middle of creating this college football playoff So there is some evolution taking place right in front of our eyes the ranking who has home when has home They're trying to move the calendar so it doesn't last as long espn though coming out and saying We would like this to remain at 12. Okay, if we're going to go up to 16 cool We cannot be doing 24. That's a fascinating piece of information for that if it does get to 24 Everybody's going to say espn's ruining it. They want more teams. They want more games and espn's actually here now on the record I guess with jim philips acc commissioner I wonder if espn knew that he was going to be saying this publicly saying hey, we we would actually just rather Let's get it right like let's Let's get to 12 Interesting because they are partner have paid a lot of money interesting because espn Is kind of the landlord of the college football playoffs where they can lease out to other networks and everything like that Which they have tried to do but also interesting because espn And the people that are in charge of the college football and we've gotten to see this because of college game day and meet these people These people are obsessed with college football. Yeah, they old school college football people So I think anytime the espn people are always painted in like they're trying to take every dollar It's like bull season became a little ridiculous But I think a lot of people wanted to play in bull games that kind of became its own thing But when you talk about the people with the college football decision They are obsessed with it now Does everybody agree with how the way in which they're obsessed with it? Maybe not but I do appreciate the fact that it's come out now that espn's like we don't want all the shit actually Even though people would assume that we would want that because it's more Shit for us to put on air and how do you feel about the potential expansion now that we know? I think patiti wanted to move acc commissioner there just kind of Gave a little on the fence answer espn doesn't want to move How do you feel a jane? What do you think inevitably ends up happening with it all? I think from what I hear everybody talk about it's going to go to 16 games We've heard that hey, you're not going to go to 14 like if you're going to go from 12 You're not just going to go to 14. I think you go to 16 teams now It sounds like it's not going to get to 24. That's just what they're guarding against. Okay, like 16. We're cool with 24 We're not we're not even going to talk about that I like I like whatever that I like what they're doing now with 12. I'm Mario Cristobal I know you had the clip come out yesterday or whatever talking Hey, like I like 12 teams and let's end the season as much earlier than we do right now I guess what national championships january 20 something this this upcoming year After way after a transfer window So hard for coaches to do anything like how do you If you are there like if you are lucky enough to be playing a national championship game like You're spending a lot of place trying to figure that out. Yeah, and you know college football the product is awesome Up until the right has been for the last half decade or so since post-covid everybody Really is falling in love with college football. Obviously there could be more but the playoffs have become You know incredibly can I guess they always happen you go back to the bcs you go back to the old school You go back to two teams you go back to four teams You got there's always going to be like some contentious mindset around it But as the playoffs continue you can tell who the two teams are I think I think you can kind of tell where the three or four teams like hey These are always going to be the three or four if you add on a bunch more teams Do we think we're going to miss potentially the teams that could have massacres? Maybe but like I mean Notre Dame would have got in last year And they were one of the best teams in college football last year. My me was what a tensi last year So my me whenever would have made the national championship and obviously in the four team era Ohio State was what a six or an eight eight eight when they made it like so. Yeah I mean I think it has been really good going from four to 12 I don't think 24 is the right move because I I am I am in the boat where I don't want it to like I don't want Not that it would I don't want guys in Ohio State, Michigan's resting because they because that game doesn't matter like hey We're already in the playoffs or whatever So you need to if you did do that or if you go to 16 you need to incentivize where there's more rounds at home In the playoffs so that you don't have guys resting you need that they to have a reason to play in every single game Um, but no 24 is a lot at 16 is probably where it's going to go and and yes Can we shorten the time between rounds? Yeah, we need to do that before the first round Here's the first round if there was a 24 team. This was by cbs sports. I believe piece this one together Iowa makes it against miami james madison obviously representing the power five against alabama georgia technotor dame Houston byu tulane texas is it is that west virginia? No, no just just normal virginia Virginia's make an argument for what year the out last year last year you can make an argument for a lot of the dogs So well, well, yeah, but I do think like inevitably do we get down to indiana miami? Inevitably yeah, and that's the problem with this one is like hey number 24 james madison Yeah, they were in it last year like that that can't happen And I get that james madison covered and it was a hell of a cover But at one point that was a what five score game like they're even right now There still has to be that type of change if we're just looking for the best teams to be in it Okay, let's pivot away from college ball and let's go to the mlb We had jake and miss iraski on with us and we talked about the comeback in basketball We talked about the massive comeback in the nhl playoffs mlb last night had a bunch of comebacks Bunch of walk-offs. We're talking about fireworks all over the place. Hey jay. Let's go to Toronto Jay's in rays bottom of the tenth three one tampa toronto grand salami Walk off dub in extra innings var show says goodbye Let's go to metz tigers Carson bench bottom of the tenth Whole shot Bring them home Metz win over the tigers tigers having a tough in Detroit. Yeah, they're yeah, they're there Yeah Astros mariners here's zack Cole in the tenth extra innings walk off Single congrats to the astros getting a massive dub rangers diamondbacks this boom What a shot bottom of the ninth Bring them home. That's a dub in extra celebrate the hell love the hat going off Nationals reds. How about this reds team? They're on a bit of a schnide. Then they found it Then let's go to the top of the tenth in Cincinnati Washington goodbye from daily lyle to run homer in the top of the tenth and then let's go to padres brewers San Diego slam d ago dawn Brewers heartbroken as a big dong in the top of the ninth Sends the slam d ago padres out of milwaukee with a dub mlb showing up man every single night. There's fireworks Obviously paul skeens is pitching like seven eight innings of no hitter stuff in that game there before slam Diego decided to win it late jacob mesurowski 49 pitches over 100 miles an hour. This guy's literally a state fair Object a jay. That's what this thing go watch the fast baseball throwing guy here with the milwaukee brewers jay I mean how long until this guy's arm falls off him. He was awesome He always is when he comes on the show, but man It is fun to watch it truly is look how skinny he is as well I know he's got long levers of strong lever as we have said. I know he's tall and he could really torque it Shohei otani is on a mound again He's on a potential run to win all the awards in the pitching category the hitting has been upper down up and down But shohei on the mound has been dominant. I love this. He told us at the all-star Celebration press conference for the home run derby and all-star Weekend there that he views himself as a pitcher who can hit now He's getting an opportunity to do a full season con man, and he is delivering. He is filthy on the mound Yeah, and it feels like pitching is as cool as it's ever been because the pitch clock Maybe or maybe it's just because it is something that I respect a little more after seeing some of these guys and what they're doing Like him skeens Mizarowski it feels as though before you know summer slam home runs are cool But now we have these pitchers who are balling out and shohei is one of the guys that can swing the freaking bat Only two batters a judge and schwarbeau who are both having incredible seasons right now have more mlb home runs than shohei Otani since shohei's mlb debut And only one pitcher the grom legend has a lower era with 500 plus innings then shohei otani since shohei's mlb debut In the batter's box and on the mound. That's baseball. Yeah, this guy's best Yeah, I can't believe we get to watch this guy. He's fun I mean baseball is really doing it right now and the stars are showing up and he might be the biggest they've ever had And there's some new stars have to mention morakami the the guy from the chicago white socks is Moon and takah morakami bingo. Yeah power. Yeah, that's all he's got. I think he's also tied for the lead In home runs as well or at least he's at that 1516 mark. He is electric Okay, let's go to the nfl briefly here malik neighbors had another procedure on his knee and that had a cl Recovery happening. He got a scope done because he had some stiffness now I did a little bit of research on this a j you know anytime you're doing a second procedure after an acl surgery You have to wonder is everything going to be okay? Is malik neighbors going to be all right? Obviously, he's incredibly fast and he's twitchy and he is a prospect that the nfl could potentially tell stories about without great He could be especially a prime time week one week two brand new offense neighbors goes crazy fresh off an acl Okay, so he got another procedure because he was experiencing stiffness uh bruce brown who follows along with malik neighbors is one of malik neighbors biggest fan Actually said seems like malik neighbors social stuff not the most positive right now Okay, it feels like he might be going through a little something What I think potentially happened after making some calls to people that have been in the rehabilitation of nfl athlete situation is He potentially got a cyclops lesion in there. Okay. What is the cyclops lesion? Well cyclops lesion is a cluster of scar tissue that kind of builds up and it prohibits you from full extension Okay, so after you get a surgery on anything there's scar tissue that builds up whenever the skin is put back together Both under the skin and on to skin there's something that is done where it's a metal wand that is basically trying to break up the scar Tissue it is cruel and unusual punishment a j would you not agree? Yeah, coda grasston. Okay. It's called grass. It's the worst they are rubbing It hurts a lot exposed nerves. I mean it is Both on top and on the bottom of the skin and they're just rubbing this metal bar just across it Okay, just right up and down It's a part of the recovery because scar tissue being broken up is a huge piece of full recovery So malik neighbors what we think this is just according to source Says and also somebody that's been through some knee surgeries not an acl But through some knee surgeries is a cyclops lesion potentially formed of scar tissue Not because he wasn't doing it but just potentially because something happens So they did a procedure to clear out that scar tissue. They will have to now once again Yeah, beat down the scar tissue on the other side. None of this is fun This is all very miserable stuff very painful stuff that you have to sign up and go through But from who we talk to and I assume they feel the same way as soon as he's able to get full extension after this Which he will be able to do this should be no holdbacks at all for what malik neighbors is doing So that's that's basically in a nutshell what I've learned about the situation But anytime you do surgery or procedure some things can go wrong Even the shit you don't even think about like oh scar tissue Potentially coming together in prohibiting full extension, which especially would be needed for a wide receiver Yeah, I don't you think what was interesting. I guess in the tweet they didn't like update his timetable They didn't say he's going to be an extra six weeks or four weeks. That's a good sign. I would imagine right? Yeah, I spent the people that I talked to multiple they said he's just now we just Yeah, this will be uh, he should be good in the stiffness that he was experiencing was probably the lack of an ability to fully Go which happens afterwards and then the good news is they found out why? Like not knowing why you're not able that's problematic Like hey, is it a muscle thing or whatever them finding out what it was like some scar tissue that we need to clear out It's probably the reason for this good news. We'll pull for him. Come on. Leek. We can't wait to watch you back out there We're not we did not talk to leek or his doctor But we are talking we've talked to people that have experienced these types of things in the past and what it potentially could be Obviously whenever it comes out whatever it comes out Just know that we are super positive and Malik is going through things that are not fun right now the scar tissue it is You got to sign up for it too. You got to wake up. Hey, you're up at 5 30 a.m. What are you doing? Well, I'm going in here to get recovery and then they're gonna be Just scraping every nerve and you guys sit down We'll take a break. Thank god Still hurts during the break. Oh, yeah, because it's irritating. That's candy. You sort of I don't know actually treatment like that. That's very slow. Do you imagine you got it? It's a very slippery slope We yeah, don't say that. Okay. Don't say we don't need to be powering up for that But boy, I don't know how I didn't think about that at the time I'm happy that I know guys that have had you know getting ACL they had to Get all doped up to have them do the whole you know, you bend your knee Especially early on out of surgery like they couldn't handle it and they had to Just the tiny little Movement is such an accomplishment But to get to it after surgery especially for like This is Malik. They was one of the most explosive athletes. Yeah of all time So just read having to move knee and then slide knee lift knee lift body just it all is so minuscule It's all so annoying leak. We're all can't wait for you to get back out there. Sorry. You have to go through it We hope you be okay Let's pivot away from that back to a major ladies and gentlemen boots on the ground a guy who did a golf round with Scotty Scheffler the other day ladies and gentlemen stanford steve How you doing steve? What's up boys? How we doing? Okay? Where are you at right now? Looks gorgeous the clouds look like they're out of a movie set It's spectacular here. I'm sitting on the 18th green On our set up rory is right over there. You can't see it, but he's on nine. He went a little white right on his drive He's finishing up his round I'll tell you one thing guys the confidence of the players the last the last three days walking around with them Playing they thought they were going to absolutely murder this place And I thought the school after hearing them talk I thought the scores were going to be a lot lower and I thought we were going to have a lot more guys lower I know the afternoon Wave is just getting going here. I thought I thought somebody would shoot a 63 today It sets up perfect guys love drivers off the deck You know on the t-box and then hitting pitch wedge nine in It seemed pretty simple for the first three days, but we got a bunch of rain last night So the guys were talking how much difference the course can be on thursday I think we're playing I think we're seeing it play a little tougher, which is great 67 is the current lowest thus far that has been posted There's obviously a lot of golfers still to finish their rounds day one here of the pga championship You were out there with scottie schaeffler two days ago. Well, or yesterday, maybe what was that like? And how's that happened? You just go out fin walk and hang with scottie schaeffler and scott fan pellet through like randomly or what? How's this go? It is a very uh thing I am thankful for pat like we go out, you know, everybody's playing monday and tuesday and scott and I You know for years now since we've been doing the pga We'll go out to the range. Hey, when are you guys going to play a practice round? Would you mind if we we joined and scottie's always out there him and gary woodland Sam burns we we walked with tuesday scottie was just playing by himself monday and uh, you know somebody was out there You know grabbing pictures and that's what you saw. It was you know overcast day. He was in a hoodie I was like, I don't know if I can ever play golf in a hoodie, but uh, he's the man So down to earth it's literally just you know, we stay away like if you know, we there's an acknowledgement if he's working on something With his coach randy smith or his great caddy ted scott, you know, we keep we keep our space But you know the size of these fairways. There's a lot of downtime and you know, we're talking we're talking texas football We're talking cowboys stars got eliminated and his mavericks Uh, you know, I rough season of a cooper flag, but I mean he's a giant sports fan You guys have had him on and that's what it is. I mean these guys are awesome Gary woodland obviously his story is incredible, but all he wants to talk is n il and and what k u and bill selfer doing He's obviously a big chiefs fan too. So it's just great to be able to pick those guys brain about what they're trying to do out here And and then we're we're just having a good time in sports. It's an awesome deal and I feel so fortunate It's like it tuesday was 70 degrees and beautiful. We're out with those three guys. It was like fake life All of it's a fake life and I'll tell you what you're crushing it all and we're thankful that there's guys out there that aren't living a Fake life and grinding on the range to become the golfers that they're becoming If somebody shoots a 63 here to start this entire weekend, that would be absurd over there Especially with some of the misses that we've already seen earlier the crowd sounds and looks like it's going to be awesome throughout the weekend There's 10 foot risers. Go ahead tone. Yeah, steve. I was wondering how the johns are doing out there with the golfers I know the pj tour has been talking about how the the crowd has been recently this year Uh, and then I also saw some johns yelling at scottie about being a cowboys fan already. How's the crowd out there? They are they're let's just say they're still getting warmed up tone Uh, when you see uh, we were out here, uh, scott and ian the porch and you know the eagles chance already started You know scott saying he's obviously commander's fan. He says go birds, but he doesn't mean it But yeah, it's uh, it's steadily been been climbing I just think with the energy and these guys is they get you know more familiar with the course We're gonna get a ton of birdies. We've seen some eagles You know rom hoops one in the energy of this place. It's spectacular The johns are great. They're spread out all over the place. Uh friends of mine that they came They said they haven't had it was the easiest event they've been to get in and out And the best thing about pga is you know, uh concessions are free Uh, you just walk in, you know freshly made burgers dogs. Why soda water? It's awesome. Yeah, it is sound awesome. No, no you have to pay for the beers there Oh, okay Hey, have a great time out there. We'll continue to follow along. You're the best I appreciate you guys having me man. Good luck. Hey, we're back. I was back in college football for like, uh, Six minutes the other night saw your big-ass head miss those days can't wait for the season. You're the best at stanford steve laser What a good time it's gonna be for golf this weekend has another major Tease off here on his thursday may 14th. That's a j hawk. The boys are here We'll continue digitally for a little bit huge day in this program's history should be a lot of fun Be a friend tell a friend something nice. It might change their life. We'll see on the other side. Goodbye I feel like I really hit that. Oh, yeah, I didn't know where I was going. Oh, you know that found your way Yeah, yeah, it were Got out there in the woods choose your own story You hold the pen bingo But do you actually or is it maybe some super being maybe god or Jesus Christ or you know the universe who's actually holding the pen in your life Where's the pen holding you? All we have to think about is who's holding the golf club. Okay, where's blocky Where where the question? Fuck is pop the leaderboard. That's where he is. He fucking better, but he did 200 fucking three even through six boom 202 yards. I thought rory's plus three What that blister that's what I just looked at. I mean, how was he supposed to walk around philadelphia with a blister all over his feet? And that's why he's so smart. He had this ace in the hole excuse before he Is You ever ripped a toenail off? Yes, I have I and I ripped a fingernail off and you know what I didn't do tell everybody about it So I think I brought it. Are you he had the limp? Why you limp and rory? There's a lot of conversation about you Obviously one of the most famous golfers on earth right now. We're at a major. Why you limp and he said hey, I just fucking blister Looks like looks like we know how the golf gods feel about him hanging around the masters for two months before the before the tournament started not how that's gonna be judge. Okay. Okay, but he's On his way to missing the cut so maybe it is we'll see how he closes out. He's rory macros That's true. Where is blocky right now. That's a good question. He's even there six He he to go got to make a push somebody said he was gonna be six over through three. Who was that? That was me a lot of time Detroit's having a tough one last night the tigers give up a massive shot to lose late The pistons give up a nine-oh run at the end of the game to go to overtime and then lose Redwings are never gonna be a playoff team again and foxy sitting over here going this guy stinks. He doesn't Okay, he hit from 202 yards to 23 inches maybe you need to show a little bit of respect I will say I called blocky at dickhead yesterday And I take that back because this guy's a gamer. Okay whole one has all the pressure in the world He knows the internet stock all the pressure in the world. Yeah, the weight of the world a couple inches That's pretty good. Now. He did double bogey two holes later. That's oh, okay They got a bird you get back to even boom I get blocky some credit Michael get off his block block more like it. Yeah, absolutely. That is what it's like. Yeah, yeah You guys think those johns on 14 are gonna give him beers and like cheer him on I think they're gonna raise so much hell from 14 to 18. I bet he shoots six over on those Those guys are gonna rattle him. I'll take that action You know that might have been what the stanford steve conversation was whenever he said with the with the boys this week They felt really confident. I thought somebody was going to shoot a 63 There's no way the lads on 14 were literally hovering over their shoulders during the practice round They had no idea that the end of that tournament you got real Real adversity and it's 10 feet in the sky staring right down on you at the t-box. That's something you can't prepare for That's the john's difference You also can't prepare for the fact that those kids are probably gonna have some sort of speaker and they're going to be Bumping on my block and block is gonna walk up. Oh shit. That's my song. Yeah, and he's gonna pipe a drive 350 yards He's gonna lambo leap right into their arms. Yeah, and they're only five deep right now wait till saturday and sunday I bet they're about 20 30 deep. Yeah, that thing was built for power. Look at the amount of metal I hope the pga gets pissed and starts building a wall taller and the boys just have to keep building their stage higher Higher see over time I have faith in this no offense to pga They just got a lot of other things to deal with feels like these lads would only focus on battling against who can get higher I would say the lads on the stage would win every single time here if they Went from an eight foot fence to a 16 foot fence I think the lads get to 17 feet within 30 minutes or so. Yeah, or just I hope I hope it's good craftsmanship. That's all I hope Yeah, it's philadelphia those guys will buy deer blinds and they'll just set those up. That's not a bad idea Yeah, I like that these people who live on these courses this course are doing that like you saw the ladies that just had their They had little umbrellas They were just sitting right there right on the edge of your fairway in their backyard I'm gonna go up to the house and bite anything come back down sit there That's great. Very rarely. Do you see that the major son Europe right that one house was right now? Yeah, it's like that's one live on a golf course. They say It'll be fun. They say I didn't know they also say like just fucking park it at 10 feet above the sky here above earth Just watch them play and also you're gonna be eating golf balls in your bay. J. That's a major at jack's tournament every year It's not a major, but it's it's up there. It's an elevated event What is uh, a jay? I go I attend those. Yeah, there's the houses there have they build a fence up But on everyone's backyard They got to pay for a gate cut if you want to get in and out But yeah, people have gigantic house parties and yeah, that's a it's a huge party. I got realized that when I was in college I went to the memorial tournament like jeez. This is this is a giant awesome party with some golf happen Golfs good golf but not her. It's a party.
