It was crazy. It just went crazy for about three or four days. times life Sometimes in life flow, there are ah proud moments. And you as a father, own I'm sure, you know, all of it.
00:03:52
Speaker
proud moment. um And so yeah, I feel like a proud father right now as you are mastering the social media and as your wise Yoda has taught you to do so well. And i think you oh why professor you're so humble also taking credit for most of everything that as well. this I do have to do that a lot. Or do you should do the cantina. Come on, man.

Where are you, Jake? Where are you, Jake Montoya? So, yeah, so we're going to talk a few topics here. We appreciate everybody joining, about 200 member new members. And so real quick, before you go, Omar, we're going to let you go. But congratulations to Argentina, who won the Copa America over Colombia. 1-0, Messi was hurt in that game. But still, they bring home the chip. Omar, any thoughts on the Copa America? ah Yeah, awesome tournament to be featured in, obviously, the North American sites around the US, Mexico and Canada. Obviously, the US had a horrible performance. um um But, you know, Argentina is led by the best player in the world, hands down. Right. And he has a good supporting cast around him. So, when you had Messi, who, yes, did get injured with an ankle injury at the 60, I think it was like 16 minutes left, so that'd be like the 74th minute. but anyway right
00:05:44
Speaker
ah yeah yeah When you have the best player in the world, that's what happens. you can You can get things done, like, with championships. And again, they have a good supporting cast. So I was more concerned with the way that the fans got into the stadium. And I don't know. Like, they were pool watching, like, the the gates. They were climbing through, like, air vents, like, air vents. yeah I know you might not be able to afford it. I know it may be sold out, but damn, there's some limit you got to have on what you're going to do. But apparently, something's going to be there. Yeah, that's pretty crazy. pretty crazy stuff, man. Any thoughts on the Copa America? I know you're a big starter friend, can't you? Nah, I was just going to elaborate on what Omar's talking about, the way they destroy a Hard Rock Stadium. Oh, OK. OK, good.
00:06:37
Speaker
That's crazy, yeah man. For them to tunnel through vents and storm their gates. And then the way they just destroy escalators and like some of the fans are hanging out of the boxes and stuff like that. They were doing crazy stuff, man. We think football fans are crazy, man. Them soccer fans are super crazy. Them soccer fans are crazy, man. That was what I saw, like man. There was no way, bro. No way. Oh, here we go. You're also crazy.
00:07:03

By the way, shout out to Spain, who beat England in the year in the Euros. So just like we had our Copa America here, they had the Euros over there. they' champion And England beat Spain in one.
00:08:49
Speaker
Uh, yeah. Okay. Uh, yeah. Just like Argentina, but you know what? The bigger thing about this is, is what would have all out there and it come from this because in England now hasn't won a title in or last title. They have now played with their manager, Garrett Southgate, who could be the French runner for the USA job that's now opened after they fired him. Wow. Perfect for a hot rumor right there. Take that. Hot rumor. Ooh, nice. Thanks for the hot rumor, Omar. Hey, so... Hot rumor. Yeah, hot rumor. Man, I'll be the right one. Good job, good. Anyway, so what would you say? Yeah, maybe... Anyway, no, anyway, I was just gonna say yeah before we get into it, yeah, I was just gonna i was just gonna say that... I forgot forgot what I was gonna say now. Anyway...
00:09:46
Speaker
i know i who want I know what you're saying, and I know what Ken is probably thinking right now. I since i know Ken so well, and I know how much he He is saluting Carlos Algaraz for a second in a row Wimbledon title over Novak Jokovic, so I know that's what Ken T wants to talk about. Canteen and his tennis. You can't ever keep him down. Canteen always talking tennis and behind the scenes. You don't see it, but behind the scenes. You don't see it. You don't see it, but he is. Talking about, you know, when he used to, you know, when Lindo, he's right there. All these guys, he talks about all these guys in the background. So now we're bringing up some tennis. Canteen, go ahead. Do your tennis thing, man.
00:10:34
Speaker
really close tennis stick let's not play i go like that really i do no as magic First can he coerced you to become a Cowboys fan and now he is is telling tall tales about your love for tennis. And I don't think it's right. I used to I used to be a big tennis man too though If it's not Venus or Serena, I don't really get too intertwined in it and and and and oh are you on Why are you always tied to you're very racial there when it comes to tennis You don't talk about golf until the disgusted tiger woods Oh
00:11:21
Speaker
and and lo float okay okay okay okay okay let maybe it's just green we when we talked about golf i was fit i was fit i was very sharp on the master scottish sheppler and all those guys going on that's true say okay think of tennis i think of venus and serena i think of those women no everybody else is irrelevant bro
00:11:43
Speaker
make it make sense I'm just about to switch. Hey, you're supposed to come back. You're supposed to come back with something. All right. All right. Let's go. Let's move on here. I appreciate everybody watching the show and commenting. It's just mainly us. Tony is one came in. Jake Montoya came in with a little comment about making i seen body the link. the man to say like bob in that's in the link yeah Okay. Send them the link. he pops in we're gonna talk a little bit about tony i saw one of his posts i wanted to see uh kind of bring up one of his topics but uh so uh omar you always leave us off with a little mlb talk uh this was all-star weekend
00:12:22
Speaker
give us the the the kind of the nitty gritty on what happened all-star weekend i know that is the ingrid andress was drunk or something during an anthem or some weird thing i was like and this was gonna cry i didn't get to see the whole mlb but man i i saw i heard about that i didn't see it but no wait she was drunk she was drunk yes she she admitted she was drunk and that she's gonna seek Yes, the country singer. She's a four time nominee. And she's here during the anthem. I saw the performance. I just thought that's how she's done. I just thought she'd know she apologized on Instagram and she said she's going to seek treatment. I just saw it today earlier when I was looking around. Here's her word. Yes, she said. perbatim Yeah, let's go ahead, Cam. but Yes, y'all. I was drunk last night and she put it on Facebook. Instagram, instagram Twitter, all that on all platforms. She said, I'm not going to BSU all. I was literally drunk. She had a horrible rendition of the National. And she said she would seek treatment. oh She did say she would seek treatment. I have a few thoughts about this. Okay. well as an As an entertainer who also
00:13:38
Speaker
who also likes to have it all. Yes, thank you for all the help. And I can attest to that, Omar. Because many a times, especially when I was performing as an artist a lot more and I was younger, there would be a lot of times I'd be up there and I would be under the influence when I was performing. And so it's not uncommon for artists to be under the influence while performing. The thing is, you've got to pick and choose your battles. If you're doing an MLB All-Star game on Fox in front of millions of people, that's different than just being drunk down the street in Dallas at the nightclub. So I feel bad for her. I hope that she does get the help that she needs to get. You know, she just made a mistake. We all make mistakes. Was the anthem horrible? Yeah, I thought it was pretty bad. I really just thought it was the way she sang in general. So I didn't want to even know shit because I didn't know about it. Am I upset now? No, not necessarily. I do get the reverence that should be provided to such a anthem of our country, while neither one of the guys are listening to me. They're both not paying attention. I'm just talking to myself. No, let me see my face. that the reverence that that song should be sung with, I am a person who is ardently and wholeheartedly against the national anthem in sports at all. We did not have the national anthem played before sports. It's stupid. Back when it came into effect during World War II when it was used in bring patriotism? Why? These days it doesn't do it and it's not necessary because it's not even shown on TV. So it really doesn't matter. It's there just to placate fans that are there or whatever. The leadership. Who cares? Get rid of the anthem in sports. We don't need it anyway.
00:15:33
Speaker
Okay. Oh, man. I disagree. But okay, let's go. And yes, who's here? Yes. I'm not saying I don't want the anthem as a veteran. No, you're all veterans. Anthem is a reverent song at the same time. It doesn't need to be played before sporting events. There's just not a reason for that. that means. Tony the Savant is here.
00:16:03
Speaker
yeah What's up, Tony wass good what good What do you think about but you drove was ham was ham and what do you think about that that singer being drunk during the anthem? the and ml be oh yeah would yeah i need to get into re home i okay but man that was pretty crazy you know just goes on a list of ah a long list of yeah anthems here right but at least you excuse oh some people don't have an excuse that a great magic gri proposal great but Maybe next week we'll close that. Worst national anthems in American history. oh you know yeah yeah Who's the best ever? Okay, best and worst. Yeah, let's do that next week. Whitney Houston, bro. Whitney Houston. and my part with hoton It's Houston. Whitney Houston's by the best. Whitney Houston, man. And the Super Bowl, right? The Super Bowl, right? Yeah, and the Super Bowl, which he won yeah he wore the American onesie and just like... Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that was probably the best. I think we all agree that. Let's see the goat, bro. The goat. Yeah, I would say this i'm not going to drink before i'm so supposed to sing the national anthem in front of millions That's true Yeah, there you go or kind of perform somewhere or do a show or you know be at a sporting event You know, this is a karaoke night at my favorite bar. Yeah, no drinking and and and singing it at the same time
00:17:31
Speaker
Right. I mean, karaoke at a bar is different, right? That's totally different. All right. So let's move on. What else about All Star Weekend do we got to talk about? Well, first of all, I must say, I like the way you like to put the champion's hat right in the camera. Right in the camera, didn't you? Texas, and maybe this is a worldwide thing for the MLB All-Star Game. Yeah. I don't know because I've never been before. But the Arlington-Fort Worth, Dallas area had a very, very horrible showing this weekend when it came to the Fort Worth All-Star Games. There was no people walking around in baseball jerseys. There were people out at the bars or the club. So it was a ghost town, so to say.
00:18:19
Speaker
You need to step up your game, A, in Texas. I thought everything was bigger in Texas. Everything's bigger. But if you're not bigger, that being said, Paul Skeens is starting the All-Star Games tonight. We want to see the rookie against Aaron Judge, against Juan Soto. And so we are going to get that here in just ah about a 30-minute wait. on As well. Yeah, you're very like Juska Hernandez. Won that derby. Roger won the home run derby last night. So there you Yep. So the favorites didn't win, right? The favorites didn't win. Well, you would've had you would add your boy, Bamba. Or what are you, Bamba? Bamba? I don't know. Yeah. He lost in the first round. Yeah.
College Football Playoffs and Team Dynamics
00:19:15
Speaker
by one run. Yeah, it was all good because he ah he beat um Alec Baum in the second round 15 to 14 by one. And then he beat by the Royals Bobby Witt in the final 14 to 13. Did you say Bambaleo?
00:19:33
Speaker
All right. He just went Latin club night over here. Go ahead. cant Go ahead. You got anything for you got some more stuff for us Omar? Now I'm out. You was good, bro. He had already now to hear. He'd already now. So we had a one to the home render and everything. And then the game was when was the game? It was it was last night. Right. Tonight. Tonight. Tonight. Tonight. The All-Star game. Who do you like in the All-Star game? American or national? I'm going to go with the American. I think that their lineup has more mashers. And um even though Texas is obviously the pitcher's park because of the the spacious nature of it, I believe that that will give way to Soto and others getting doubles and triples. And I can see the, let's go ahead and say says let's six five to two.
00:20:31
Speaker
a l No, maybe seven to know it be a um something like that. Seven to two a.m. Wow. What about you, Ken? Who do you like? yeah I'm going to go American, bro. americanamerican American, American. I'll say nine to five, nine to five. Close game. Not too bad. no i that go work Nine to five. Yeah. working nice every What do you think they're, uh, Tony? What do you like? I want to be a completely honest, fellas. I don't follow the entire league enough. I love the Rangers. I love my White Sox. So I just kind of tapped in with the headlines with them. But I'm not familiar enough with every, you know, the entire teams, but I'm just going to go with the flow American and keep it there. I always trust sports profession and cancer teams. Oh, okay. Trust in the sports profession. I would trust the sports profession when they come to baseball. I don't know about games. What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Are you serious right now? Bro, you know how many games I've called and won?
00:21:40
Speaker
I can probably count on one hand. Man, stop, stop. flow And then, oh my, you know, flow flow change up at the last minute. What are you talking about? Bro, you was going for them. You know you was going for a certain team. Then, midway through the game, you'll flip the script, bro. I don't yeah flip the script. Come on, man. Can... Why are you talking about flipping the script, man? I don't know. Are you serious right now? Bro. I do not flip the script. this is a you i have I have what Omar likes to call club club or caveat stuff. So I didn't do that. I have some caveats, but I don't flip the script.
00:22:21
Speaker
i don't do it for no don't write to score for bla me love I hope you're listening to this blasphemy club come blasphemy, I'm saying that that's what you like to call them on your show. club cavity By the way, that's all it is. We do have to give a shout out to Travis Donzana, who was drafted number one in the Major League Baseball draft last night by the Cleveland Guardian. Why does he get a shout out? Why did Travis? I don't know. get it You tell me. Because he is almost Australian and he is the first um Australian major leaguer to be drafted. Number one, I believe in the first round at all, but definitely number one. Oh, wow. Wow. Okay. So first Australian. Yep. He's a first Australian employee card, bro. Wow. Okay. That's fair. so So are we saying that baseball is getting international now?
00:23:19
Speaker
I mean, I think it's been international for a while. I think it's been way more international for a while. I mean, it's been run by most of the central and Caribbean countries. Well, well, yeah, I mean, but like you talk about Cuba and, you know, in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. Yeah, but that's more South America. But I'm talking about like over zero zero zero zero. You got Shohei. They got the got the Asian market as well. I mean, the Latinos. And the fact that I listed Puerto Rico, the Dominican, and Mexico, and you just said all South American countries, I need you to work on your geography, my friend. Well, I did i wasn't necessarily saying that was a South American country. Oh, Flo, I got a bone picture, Flo. I got a bone picture. You got a bone picture for me, man. Boy, hey. I don't want to say it. I want to end this show with this bone here because, man, I'm really about it. OK, let's leave it for the end.
00:24:16
Speaker
I got to crush you at the end. The way you talked about some some of my me and Omar's favors, the way you did, the way you disrespected some of the people that we tend to follow and like to listen to. What are you talking about?
00:24:31
Speaker
i know ba What are you talking about? he know oh i was knew what i'm talking about what are you talking about you Ain't no comeback from this. What are you talking about? and We can go back to previous episodes, the way you dog a couple of people out, like the way you disrespected them and blackballed them. Blackball who? Who's not blackball? Do you want to talk about it now? I don't know what you're talking about, Ken.
00:24:56
Speaker
Oh, why you only gonna let it get out of battle away? I mean, I think he's gonna be pretty hilarious. Yeah, take the show off the rails.
Sports Media Personalities and NFL Season Previews
00:25:06
Speaker
Why not? It hasn't been on the rails. Take it off the rails. So what's up with your boy? What's up with your boy undisputed? Let's talk about it. Oh, man. What about him? What about him? Oh, no, no. He ain't undisputed no more. No. He left the show. He left the show.
00:25:25
Speaker
stephen What are you talking about? You got to bring up Westbrook. You got to bring leaving up the shelves. You got bring Yes, yeah I have. I hate him because of he because he dog talks about the Cowboys. What do you pay? I don't talk about his best. Come on, the way he dogs and the Cowboys. So even your dad says that, even your dad says that Omar, your dad, your dad talks to worse about him than I do. and know hey folks You have to bring up can and race earlier, right? With the Serena Venus thing. Why? yeah Why have you consistently taken Skip Bayless over? oh think We all know why.
00:26:07
Speaker
Because I'm white or what? I thought I was a Mexican. no i leave flow and in flow yo boy i got the audacity You can't even say that because um if Skip was Latino, maybe. he got audacity to ask stephen a smith can he join operation on first paint really we all want you skill ba we don't want Actually, that was probably the best, the best duo was Stephen A and Skip together. Yeah, but the fact that he couldn't replicate that success and his show got progressively worse and worse. And then after Clark left, Stephen A first take is off the court. It didn't get progressively worse. It was challenging first take. Oh! It was challenging first take. Never got worse. You know what I'm saying? When Shannon was there, they were together. You're joking. Shannon brought up the soul, bro.
00:26:53
Speaker
But he picked both of those guys to be fair. ski bayner pick both nice when Shannon was there before he went to first take they were at around,000 viewers while first take was around 500,000. Now after Shannon struck left, first take was up to like 750 while undisputed went down to like 100, 150, which is exactly why all of this is happening right now. Okay. So, but he picked those guys. He also picked John Johnson. pa da tony ah old I mean, you can't go. you No one's batting a thousand there, Tony. No, no, no. I said that's true. Who bat the thousand? I got to say this though. Skip Bayless, he always seems to be in a position of failing and then somebody comes and bails them out. And rescues him. That's true. That's not true.
00:27:41
Speaker
Oh, that's not true because he would he paid that was failing. That wasn't failing. They got him to do a different another show because he actually was doing pretty well. He wasn't. That wasn't his show. Yeah, but skip skipping what he paid down to a fistfight. That's why what he left the show because he couldn't take skip no more. Who can? And then also, ah yeah, he did have Shannon Sharpe. I think those are just rumors. We have actual evidence of that. China Sharp wasn't really relevant before undisputed. I'll give you that. He wasn't. He got fired from CBS. But he blew up. What? Undisputed. He got fired from CBS. That's closer fact. Just as popular if not more. But I think here, but look, look, OK, to be fair, listen to me. There is there are dynamics.
00:28:28
Speaker
Just like in ah football or in boxing, you know, when you have the right people fighting each other or playing each other, that makes the fight. That makes the, that makes it. Files make fights. And that's what was hoping on with him and Stephen A and him and Shannon Sharp. And he hasn't found that guy again to to do that. That's why I brought like this guy over here and I bring you on and I bring, and I had canteen and I brought Jake because It'd be a whole different show yeah without those guys. Respectly, but it's also a line of disrespect because we're all a team, too. You know what I mean? And boxing, it ain't no teams. And this thing, even in debate, we're supposed to have an understanding. We're going to go at each other on cam and an off cam. Let's go for a drink. Oh, you my boy, you know, let's go get a bite to eat. Skip doesn't have that. You know, he can't separate. Yeah, but yeah, I mean, he's a different kind of animal, animal though. He's a different kind of guy. yeah He's all about sports. He's all about sports. I'm not all about sports. This is just a side gig. This is not even a side gig. I barely, I mean, I put some time into it, but I don't put that much time into it. He lives and breathes. I mean, he even told his wife but he skip on he told his wife that sports come before her. That's crazy.
00:29:40
Speaker
so i mean he's a different just a different animal yeah that's why he's so successful that's why he's been as successful as he is yeah that's why he's been as successful as he is exactly right sometimes things need to be uh prioritized but exactly prioritized yeah i get us and i prioritize but just because i mean skips okay i mean i don't mind him sometimes but i don't always agree with him same thing with sha har yeah youre blow flows you can what do you but i'm i'm not a i'm not a hater oh you say it was say I don't hate even hate Shane. I didn't say he was a sellout. No, you said you said something out of the way about him, man. I remember it, bro. You don't remember it because you don't know what I said. I never said sellout. If you find those words, go bring them up. I didn't know. Go find it because I didn't say sellout. I just I just said he was scared. He was running. out yeah this okay That's what he said. He was running. But what was he running from? He was running away because he couldn't handle Skip. You embarrassed me on national TV right there.
00:30:45
Speaker
What do you talk? How did I embarrass you? That's a black man. He a brother. Now, what if he had to want to beat that man to sleep on national TV? Could have been a problem. Shannon Sharp took it the right way, man. He took it in a professional manner. He took it the right way. No, he took it the right way. Right. So what do you I mean, I'm not disagreeing with you. All right. Let's move on, man. I don't want to get hung up on that tonight. but I can't get me back. Come on, man. I can't get him. This is a great TV. Yes, he already got you, dude. The specific show, I can go back and find it because I know what it was. I didn't say Stella, though. He's dying just to make it up. See what sticks. He's just throwing stuff. See what sticks. We did a whole spectrum where you buried first take. You buried Stephen A. Smith. Yeah. I didn't bury him. I just said I didn't like Stephen A's taste.
00:31:39
Speaker
I think he says upgrade. Remember, bro. and countable and You know what? I should go we'll find it. Go find it. Yeah, whatever. Go find it. All right. Mixed bag professor. Let's get into the sports professor's mixed bag. Anyway, so what do you got a sports professor for is in your mixed bag? Sir, I think we've we've we've pretty much hit all the mixed bag topics. Oh, okay. We talked the soccer, we talked the tennis, we got the baseball. um That was the professor's mixed bag, mixed bag. The quickest mixed bag ever. ah Tiger Woods came out today and got into a back and forth with Colin Montgomery, a former pro but not a former champion, and he called Tiger Woods out.
00:32:27
Speaker
uh for being allowed these exemptions because you get the exemptions when you're a champion um and so Tiger Woods shot shot back and said well you know at least I got these exemptions meaning at least I am a champion that can continue to oh wow so you got a little beef to watch there and look out for the type of feeling a little feisty as he's leading between allies
00:32:57
Speaker
i mean Maybe we you do a segment for a can hits the fan because I mean that was kind of fun when he attacked me it you attacked me before lo there was not an attack man and hits the and wow it's time for can hits the fan Let me know when you want to do that again, I'll put it in the show man Oh, man. Oh, we're going to do that. We want NFL season week one. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. Hey, let's do a little. I was going to throw in a little and say football because, you know, now we have a 12 team playoff and I know Omar loves to talk. We got 40 days or more. 40 days. Omar like this. We've got over seven weeks. Why are we talking football? Hey, man, everybody's here about the summer work. Come on. You want me to talk about Tony? Tony, Tony, Tony. What do you want me to say? Hold on, Omar. Omar, I'm down. Tony, in the realm of sports, is football not king? Oh, yeah. I tell you, that's what I'm saying. Football is king, baby. You talking about soccer football? No, football, American football, American football. When it comes to American sports,
00:34:10
Speaker
How's that? I think soccer is the king. I think we, we got, we got the American. How about in America, in America where we live? bring that football in this game. Anyway, okay, so anyway, we're talking about NCAA football. A 12-team playoff now, and Omar, you can just fall asleep if you don't want to talk about this. ah But it is possible for, if you look at the scenarios, it's possible for Georgia, Alabama, or Texas, Georgia, or even, what, Alabama, Texas, or or it's possible for them to play each other three times in the same season. They play each other during the season. They could play in the conference championship. They could also play in the playoffs.
00:34:49
Speaker
ah Kind of crazy to think about that, see of that three times, but also no more divisions for the Big Ten and the SEC. First place will play second place team. Ken, I know you're a big, you know, college football guy. What do you got to say about this, all this ah these scenarios and the playoffs? I'm playing three times. i'd be ah That almost, I don't know if that would be good or bad for college football. Hey Flo, this takes me back to the show that me, you, Omar and Jake, we did this show last December. Right, right before we took out more to that Dallas Cowboys game and man we talked the same thing I wish as of last season that 12 play that 12 team play I would have won in effect man they would have eliminated a lot of issues you had a Georgia the Board all team that was undefeated two years straight that got beat dropped to a six you had a Florida State team that went undefeated I mean you had an Alabama team to end up winning the SEC Championship went on to the National Championship you had a Washington team that was sub par
00:35:45
Speaker
big one or whatever, and then you have Michigan end up going too. So I love this whole thing about the, uh, the, the 12 team things, the 12 team playoff thing, because what it's going to do is you have, I think you have at least one more home game or something like that to that effect. And then what happens is if you're the top seated team or whatever conference, you'll get a buy. I believe they take the conference. I think the four conference championships from the four big, they'll get a buy. Yeah, the top four will get a buy. Yeah. But also, I think they take the top five conference championships or more. I don't know if you know, but I know that that, you know, that it was at the A, the big 12, big 10, SEC. I think they see. Yeah, I think yeah you like ah they take those teams, those top teams. They may not be the top four, but they'll take those top. You got to think about the SEC beefed up, man. You had it. You had it all.
00:36:36
Speaker
Oklahoma, you added Texas attack east india and then you got a team like Notre Dame. I think Notre Dame isn't even in a conference. I think Notre Dame does something completely different from everybody else. they were a I think they only do it for basketball and other sports. They do basketball, ACC, but football is something completely different. They're independent. They just added Colorado and some other powerhouse. So, man, um I'm actually excited for football season, especially college and NFL. But like I said, I think this will eliminate a lot of the confusion that happened last year. And if they should, they should have kicked it off last year, man, because it was pathetic to see a team like Georgia. And that's my team true enough to go two seasons back to back and lose. And then you go to a bowl game and then Florida State don't even show up. And then, but then how do you appease a team that goes undefeated? And then they end up getting sent to a a sugar bowl or whatever. And then nobody comes to play, man. So I think this is a good way to eliminate a lot of the malarkey that's happened between the NCAA. And I'm excited for what's going to happen, man.
00:37:32
Speaker
Okay. All right. on Tony, what do you think a team's playing three times in a season? Is that good or bad for college football? Also, probably this is going to go all the way probably to the last week of January yeah to to finish the championship for the college championship. So. i think these I think this is good. I think it'll make things a little bit more interesting. You know, we see it in other sports, how often does a team get you in the regular season, you know, and then you can get your your revenge possibly in the post-season and how much you want to be at that point. Right. And I'm in lockstep with Ken, man. I think last year the whole four, I mean, it's been a mess these last few years, but the four-team system, it's just not fair. You know, it's too many,
00:38:16
Speaker
college teams in the first place. So it's like, even after those four teams, you're going to have another four that should have been in the mix possibly. But I think with the 12 team system, oh I think it does give a little bit more of a chance, you know, to have that revenge game. So, you know, how about, you know, have a how up what oh you got Texas last year, you know, the yeah yeah you you face them in the postseason, a Red River rivalry as well. You know, you you will definitely want to revenge sooner than next year. right The 14 thing was just a little bit of a mess. A lot of controversy involved with 12. It should be a lot more fair.
00:38:55
Speaker
You're the 13th team and you got the cases. Tough luck, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. What do you think, Omar? Since you love to talk football this time of year. One versus two now for SEC and Big 10. And then the playoffs going in well into January.
00:39:15
Speaker
Yeah, um you know, this as long as if we're going to talk football, I'm glad we're talking at least college football football playoffs because it's something new. It's something that we haven't seen. It's something as the gentleman already said is what's long needed um for the past few years at least. So now we get it. Now there should be more teams in there. the best team is cool You know, conceivably come out of this format, right? So what's going to happen? You're going to have your four highest ranked conference champions, right? Whether that is the big 12, no more of the Pac 12. So that's now going down to four.
00:39:52
Speaker
It's going to be a four. um It's going to be a four times two, probably plus four, which means that the the the four cops were four highest um ranked. oh Omar doesn't have to be necessarily the champions, though. Well, the thing is in the top four highest, the four highest ranked champions are going to be ranked in the top four and will receive a first round by then they go by ranking after that. OK. So that's how the rules are for that. yeah okay So then, for instance, if the fifth conference champion wasn't ranked at five, let's say they were ranked at eight, then they would cheat in at eight. They wouldn't automatically get ah a buy or the top four get a buy. Right. Okay.
00:40:37
Speaker
But I think it's good for football. I think it's going to show us who the teams really are. all now we all work The SEC, the ACC, you know they they've accounted for most of the titles. Big 12. Big 12. 10, 20 years. um But yeah, and even the Big 10 last time there, I think it was like 2012. It's been a few years as well. but It's going to be good. I yeah i like it. I think it's going to be good. I'm looking forward to it. Okay, good. Appreciate you, Omar. I'm putting in there to you. Come on, Flo. What's your take, Flo? Yeah, so, I mean, I like it. I mean,
NFL Quarterbacks and Bronny James's Potential
00:41:12
Speaker
here's the thing. Do we see this expanding? And what do you guys think? You can tell me, you know, after I i give kind of gave you my take. but
00:41:18
Speaker
Uh, DC is going past 12 teams. I mean, maybe they expand to 14 since 12 work good. Maybe they'll go to 14, maybe they go to 16. I don't see it going past 16 if it happens, but I think 12 is a good number for college football. I don't think we should expand more than that. I think 12 is solid number. top Your top four, get a bye. And then you have the other eight teams, you know, play each other. And then, cause if you start getting to 14, 16, then you're starting to get into the Super Bowl, you know, running into the Super Bowl. And I don't know NFL is going to like that, but I just don't see it going past this. I may be able to go to 14 at some point, if this is very successful, I think it depends on how successful, how popular it is to to have this kind of format. I know everybody's wanted at least, I think you um many people talked about an eight or 10 team. So I think they went with 12 to kind of appease
00:42:07
Speaker
almost everybody because I've that most people didn't ask for a 14 team playoffs. I mean, most people were at at eight or 10 that I made the argument for it. So I think the 12 is a good number ah for the playoffs playing three times. I don't know if that will happen. I think it's I know it's a possibility and I mentioned it as a possibility, but I don't think that's going to happen. I just don't see that happening very often. I think it will happen from time to time. well I don't see teams playing three times. You know, if you lose typically, if you lose in the season, you may not make it to the championship the chances of both those teams making it but you know there are a lot of teams that could make it you know we're talking about those four top teams or the top teams in the sec which you would consider georgia alabama texas uh oklahoma now possibly uh maybe even um you know florida state sometimes occasionally but and you have those top
00:42:58
Speaker
you know, kind of eight teams from the SEC plus Oklahoma, Texas. so Any of those teams could make it in the championship game, I think. And I think that there's enough diversity there that you wouldn't see teams play three times, even though that's a possibility. I just don't see that happening. And then you think about it. It's not divisions anymore. I think one versus two is going to be a big change um because you don't have the top south or east and west or whatever, you know, because sometimes the top in the division isn't necessarily the number two seed or number three seed, right? ah Even, you know, now it's going to be whoever's, whatever. If you're a normal one in two seeds, there's no more divisions. That's going to be pretty straightforward as far as, you know, playing each other for the conference championship. I think that's how the big 12 did it. I think they're going to do it like that this year too, but that's how they were doing it, you know, when they had to go down to 10 teams.
00:43:46
Speaker
or eight even eight teams at one point, but ah I kind of like that format as well. It gets pretty clear cut. The number one SEC team versus number two SEC team, pretty clear cut. So you don't have any, oh, you know, they could have played them or they should have played them. I think it gets rid of some of your scenarios, you know, about who should get in, who should get out and all that stuff. so What do you think? We think they'll get expanded. That's this. i think i think that I think they'll run this a couple of years, man. Maybe three, four years and see what it says. Test it out for three, four years and then move on from that. But as you know, Flo, we're gonna I'm going to say this. You already know who's going to the chip. You know who's going to the chip. Brandy, that's no questions. That's the point. Bulldog. Bulldog. Man, listen. Georgia. I'm telling you, Georgia, Texas. I'm telling you.
00:44:33
Speaker
Okay. Who's going to them, Tony? Tell him who's going to beat them. Texas. Who's going to beat Georgia? Georgia. Yeah, it's tough. Who's your quarterback, Kensing?
00:44:48
Speaker
coming back for love yeah Who's your tight end now? bro I don't know all this, man. I ain't look. Carson Beck coming back. Why you got that? Who the tighty in that Texas Tech? You be trying to pull my car by the stuff like that, bro. I sure do. You know You'll be Texas Tech. Okay. Hey, but I like my team. I root for my team no matter what. You start crying though when y'all lose two games. Listen, are y'all going to beat Colorado November? We're supposed to go to that Colorado game. Y'all might beat Colorado. We might beat them. We might beat them. We should beat them this year. I think we should beat them. We should. We should be a 10, 9, 10 win team this year. what what How many games Colorado going to win? I'm going to stick before move on. How many games? How many games will crime? And it's both.
00:45:42
Speaker
Colorado. I haven't seen their schedule just off top of my head. I have to look at their schedule. See who they're playing, but I know they're playing some big trouble, but I don't know who cause they're not playing everybody. So, uh, I would say probably seven, maybe eight, maybe I'm a high end, but I say probably they were in seven games. What do you think? i world camp hi they They open up against North del of against north Dakota state. why would talking in Colorado. They'll be North Dakota State. Okay. All right. Then they got Nebraska. That's going to be a rough game. Maybe. Colorado State may be rough. Yeah. Baylor last year. Baylor will be tough. They'll be UFC Universe Central Florida. Okay. They'll probably be Kansas State. Maybe. They're tough. Arizona going to play them tough.
00:46:34
Speaker
Cincinnati might play them tough too. Texas Tech, they might win five games out of this together. Man, they got Oklahoma State, Kansas, Colorado, they got Utah, and they got Texas Tech. They got a pretty tough skill. Yeah, that's a seven. I give them seven. I give them, what do you think, Tony? That's what we're talking about, Colorado. I give them five. Oh, man. Oh, you're a five? I thought you were going to give them national championship or something. Man, I was just talking, man. You know, doggone web, man. You know the way, bro. What do you think, Tony?
00:47:06
Speaker
No, they got a new offensive line, worn saps over there now. Yeah. man i like I like that seven number. I ain't a lie. I like that seven. I think it all depends on the offensive line though. Right. Do you think Shador looks a lot better? Yeah, I think he should do it look great. I think he looked good last year. I mean, he'll look better this year than next year, than last year. Yeah, yeah I think he'll be in the Heisman race this year. I mean, yeah. What? And ah for a five-win team, though, usually say a five-win team guy doesn't get in the Heisman. Well, Ken said five. I'm going to go move on with that seven seven. So at seven, you think he can get in that race? Yeah, for sure. OK. What do you think, Omar? I think you are and what the Colorado will do.
00:47:55
Speaker
I think he's still in the race, even with a five win team. And yeah, I just think that's, I just think that's going to be really good. to off is Their is going to be powerful you know their office blindedness up and keep him upright. Like they weren't able to do last year, but their team is not going to be good overall. Too many transfers, too much in and out, too much newness and meaning to have a system, which is what he does now. I love Prime, one of my favorite players ever worked to watch, obviously at Cowboys, so my my dad loved him. ah You can't have a sustainable amount of success with the amount of yearly turnover he's had in his first two seasons. That being said, I can go no higher than five wins with that schedule that I just heard. Yeah, yeah.
00:48:41
Speaker
I like that take, honestly. In Colorado, just one of those teams, man, they just kind of like the 49ers to me, kind of like. Yeah, yeah. Even your style takes before this year. ah Oh, it's one of those teams you want to like, but. you know I mean, and what your caveat known is Tony, like it like last year, man, I think me and Flo, we have I think we talked about it. They beat TCU and they slipped past, I mean, they started out stronger than they just tamed. I love what they got.
00:49:14
Speaker
but They got too much credit for TCU, I think. and they were I knew they weren't that good, but but because of last year, they got a lot of credit for it. and I knew they weren't that good. They weren't that good. Yeah, they lost a lot of people. They lost their starting quarterback. They lost a lot of on offense. So I knew they were going to struggle. this And that's why I'm glad they're restructuring this whole playoff thing, man, because it's a crime that I thought you said TCU was going to beat Jordan. And you said that too. too float That was a year before though. That was when they had a good team. When they played us? Yeah, that's that's when they had a good team. They choked that game. They choked the game. They choked that game. Who was the better team? Joey was a better team. I told you.
00:49:58
Speaker
I even told you, man, I'm gonna tell you, Flo's on the phone about the craft. When we beat Ohio State, I told him to do that, too. What do you mean, the field goal that y'all... Yeah, I told you. When they missed, you was crying. You was crying to me. You were like, I don't know, Flo. I don't know. We're gonna win. Are we gonna win? And then they missed that field goal. Wide left or right? I can't even remember. It was crazy. You were like... You look like Tom Brady when he won that Super Bowl. When Seattle got that interception at the end, screaming like a girl. All right, what we got next, bro? I know, Omar, you got to get up out of here, right? All right, so here we go. Let's talk one more thing here. All right. So I wanted to mention a little NFL here. Let's see if I got it here. Oh, you got to pull this up, Flo. We need honest opinions on this chart. Honest opinions, OK. Yeah, man. Let me see here. Don't use a pretty big fan, right?
00:50:51
Speaker
Yes, sir. oh Green Bay, okay. Green Bay fan? Hey, Green Bay. Yeah, I got i got my LLC to the Cowboys around here somewhere. who Wow. so little ownership. That's crazy. Wow. Okay. So let's put this up. Let's bring this up real quick. This is probably be our last topic anyway. Uh, see if I can bring it up here. Uh, here it is. All right. So we share this. Uh, so the, uh,
00:51:23
Speaker
NFL execs coaches and scouts and scouts, excuse me, voted on the top QBs going into the season. ah There you see Patrick Mahomes and then Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson. ah Matthew Stafford, Justin Herbert, number six. Looks like CJ Stroud, number seven. Aaron Rodgers, number eight. Jared Goff, number nine. And Jack Prescott, number 10. And then you see also their their ranking from last year. The top three didn't change. Lamar jumped up. Matthew Stafford jumped up. Justin Herbert stayed. He got we went one down. And of course, CJ was not ranking. what he read And
00:52:06
Speaker
And Jared, how golf wasn't ranked. And so this is the this is NFL executive coaches and scouts. And then just to see the, I was going to see the other, I thought I had another. I mean, the disrespect. You think this is disrespectful? Disrespect. Alright, so you go first. MVP number four is just crazy disrespectful right now. Especially behind Joe Burrow who can't even stay healthy. At least Lamar Dex has been able to stay healthy with a more dangerous playing style. And he's behind him when he just won the MVP. And Josh, I'll get out of here with that. That's wild to me. Okay, that's the first. Let's look at this. So this is, look at the QBRs though. That's the QBR. Why is that effort into the top five? What has he done? His team hasn't been good since he was hurt. Oh, okay. So why is he up there then? Why do we have injured quarterbacks? We haven't proven anything in the past couple of years. Why is she out at number seven? Why is Jared golf above Jack Prescott? Why is Justin Herbert not in your top five? What is happening with this list right now? This is why a lot of other cartoons suck. These executives and scouts, supposed to be the damn experts, don't even know what they're doing. A sports professor is going off. What are you telling me to add to that?
00:53:26
Speaker
Uh, well, this might be a little bit controversial, but I think respect. So, so here's the Tony real quick. So here's it. So who doesn't belong on the list and who should be on the list kind of go that, that direction and who's too high. Maybe shout out to man down. Thank you for tuning in. That's but up what what what ah but but but i think we know not man down sports. Uh, let me see. I think now as much as I like Justin Herbert, he shouldn't be on this list. Oh, you shouldn't be top 10. Not talking at all. Herba got hurt last year. He got hurt, y'all. He got injured now. I respect that. He got injured. He did get injured. I'm not going to play. Yeah, I'm not. See, when I say that, I'm not saying that he ain't good. I'm saying we looking at the crowd, too. So I'm going to say this, and it's going to be controversial. Of course, I'm going to throw my guy. I'm going to put Jordan Love in there at a 10.
00:54:20
Speaker
Okay. That's fair. I'm not mad at that being on the list. I'm not mad at it. I'm not mad at this list. I just feel like you take Justin Herbert out and you put Brock Purdy in. And the who do you take out to put in your guy? Jordan. You got to take somebody else out for that. Josh Adam. Jared Goff? Jared Goff? I take Aaron off, man. I'm like i'm not going to lie. I take Aaron off. Aaron off? Oh, okay. Because he didn't even play. Okay. That's fair. yeah Do you put take Aaron off and put in your guy Jordan Love? And then you take Justin Herbert off and put in who?
00:54:56
Speaker
So what I would do exactly, I like the first five. Let's see, I'm gonna say this about Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson is the new Peyton Manning. He's the regular season guru, post-season absentee. So okay I like him, but I don't like him that high. I would probably have him at five. I'm taking Justin Herbert out ah and I would move Brock Purdy. Yeah, Jalen Hurts might need to be on this list, but I'm sketching. I'm not mad that Jalen Hurts ain't on this list, but I'm gonna say this. har out
00:55:27
Speaker
brocky jack it I'm moving deck up we'm moving everybody up one. I will put Purdie at seven, CJ at six, Jared at eight, Dak at nine, and at Jordan at 10. Because respectfully, Brock Purdie had an MVP season last year. I know everybody want to run with that system stuff. He had to still fling the ball, man. So and the kids showed that he connected. It's the system. Yeah, he can be competent, man. Like, I think that disrespectful competency should count for some. OK, that's right. I think what do you think? What do you think, Dan?
00:56:03
Speaker
and i'm let omar go hitting out then i no um I just wanted to say I'm even more mad than I forgot. Jalen Hurts, that's so disrespectful that Jalen Hurts is not on your top 10. Thank you, man, down. Thank you, Mel. That is that did so disrespectful. He had a horrible second half of the season, man. What I'm going to caveat, I'm going to float. I'm going to jump on your side at this point in time. Okay, go ahead, Ken. Give me your thoughts on this. Anytime a quarterback gets a big payoff, they do not perform up to par. They do not exceed standards. I caveat that by saying for whatever reason, sometimes they get injured sometimes and they just don't have a great season the next season. They're they're not that good. When when I look at this top 10, I'm going to go my home is one. Right.
00:56:54
Speaker
I will definitely burrow at two burrow hat burrow had an injury that prevented him from doing whatever else. But if I if i had to rank my top five, I'm going to go Mahomes, burrow, move Lamar Jackson up, move Josh L not the way. I would move on where you put him though, out of the top 10.
00:57:14
Speaker
Josh Ella might fall at nine. Josh Ella can't win big playoff games, man. He cannot win big playoff games. The Bills are 13, but they haven't won a division. He does not make major moves when it's time to win. Neither does Lamar Jackson, though, if you're going to say that, Cam. He can make that case for Lamar, too. Exactly. And Lamar does worse because he actually has MVP caliber seasons and then Yep. It disappears when it matters. Has a worse drop off to be fair. That's true, zone. And then I will go Stafford at four. Stafford's ever gonna find a way to win in the playoffs. Stafford is not all, Stafford is not all lost. What about the rest of the list? and Who are you taking off of the list totally? Anybody? Roger. Roger, I heard it. Roger ain't proving anything to nobody. OK. OK. He hasn't proven anything. I mean, his career, he's only had a long career with three MVPs and a Super Bowl.
00:58:10
Speaker
Probably put Stroud at 5, man. Probably put Stroud at 5. Oh, wow. Stroud had a shot. Flowey had a hell of a year. It's one year, though. It's one year, Ken. I'm talking about this is what I'm talking about right now. I know. Dick's last season, I put right now. Man. OK, get your top five. Get your top five. Look, Dick, tell me who you kick off and who you add in, or you just are you just shuffling these people? ah he miss cheling hes guy I probably would drop Roger and I probably would move up Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts didn't have a horrible year, but Rogers didn't prove anything to anybody. He ends on week one. So he really dropped off Aaron and put in Jalen. And then you move Josh Allen down to what? Five, six. Were you putting him? That was all at seven, man. OK. And you move. I mean, add alllan elhan i mean
00:58:59
Speaker
I think Omar, I think Omar, I think Omar picked the bill. I think Omar that you picked the bill to do something spectacular. I remember like, i I don't forget much. But I think you said the bill is going to have a great season or something like that. Wow. yeah I think our boys too, which y'all do nothing. Geez Louise. Neither did your bills that you picked too. You picked the bills too Omar. I'm going to start calling that the Omar football curse. Like the Madden. I'm with me. I'm with me. that Okay. up those the i and the cowboy that Don't pick my Cowboys next year. No, Mark. Don't do that. I already know who I know. We started out. We got, we got, we opened up. That's not getting the Cowboys. damn baltimore listen Hold on, Ken. Let's not get into the Cowboys right now. We're trying to finish this. So I i would say this is going to be controversial. I probably, I put Patrick Mahomes one.
01:00:01
Speaker
Based on last year, going into this year, I put, I put Brock Purdy too. Brock Purdy too. You gotta put it back on, man. You just gotta acknowledge the kid. had Then we're gonna go with the CJ Stroud praise. You gotta give Brock Purdy this flower. Yeah, you gotta give Brock Purdy some praise. Maybe not too, but I'm gonna put him on the list. but Yeah, that's crazy. to Yeah, that's high. I know that's high. I would leave these top three the way they are. I actually even the top four because I punished Lamar a little bit for his playoff performance because look Dak was number nine last year and and they punished him because he was number two in MVP and he's at number 10 behind Lamar. Right behind Lamar.
01:00:47
Speaker
Flo, the most important game of the season at the crib, he is very strong, man. like yeah yeah but be fair To be fair, the defense let us down first, and then he just couldn't. He's not a come-from-behind guy. I've already said that. He's not a come-from but-behind guy. He's not a guy that can sit in the pocket, throw it 45, 40 times, and that's what he had to do. That could definitely come from behind. Blaming Michael Parsons for that that debacle. yeah i can I blame him partially. I blame the whole i blame Dan Quinn for thinking about his next job before thinking about the game. You think about Falcon Black. That's what you have in here he He wasn't prepared. yeah I blame the coach a little bit. But anyway, I would move back up probably to nine, maybe eight. man teeth in here
01:01:32
Speaker
Possibly take out Aaron because he didn't he didn't really play and then the year before he didn't really have a good year with with the Packers That he kind of struggled so I would have to take Aaron out of it just out of the top ten probably 11 I would move CD Stroud down to ten I would take and Jared Goff had a good year. I'd have to put ah Maybe Jordan love CJ Stroud going ten nine and then probably put in a Justin Herbert at eight. I don't really like him. He's he's overrated to me. Then I will put in probably Matt Stafford seven, put in Brock Purdy at six. And then the rest looks pretty good. I'm gonna get some, who would I move up? I don't know who I put in five from. what about treor lawrence
01:02:18
Speaker
No trouble. with Lawrence. No but history. I don't. I don't. I think he's over. He's just as overrated as just that right that was a bus. They made a mistake by him. He's not a bus, but he's just, he's not as good as people make him out. He's got the tools and the talent, but so did Ryan leaf and he didn't do very well. I mean, he's sort of though, huh? He got paid for his Clemson performance. like That's what this money was for. good And I don't, I don't really but necessarily believe in CJ Stroud or Jordan Love with one year. I got to see him. I got to see more to really put him in the top 10. So I might be the number one C last year in the house. I can't allow y'all to this packer's planner to continue. number one see Nobody on our team is older it than 26 years old. ah
01:03:06
Speaker
yeah Yeah, I feel like they got hot at the right time. That's one of the teams that got it. eat You got to get those teams to get hot. A lot of the Giants beating the Patriots as a wild card, you know, they get hot at the end of the season and play well. Sure, but I think we what do they do after that? Yeah, they didn't do anything. But I'm sure we can all agree that the Packers and the Texans are both Super Bowl contenders at this point. I see sophomore slums coming for both those guys. Even though it's not Jordan Love second season, but it's a second season starting. I see a sophomore slump for those guys. I think they'll make the playoffs. I see him doing as well.
01:03:43
Speaker
yeah boy comment your boy your boy man he nothing detroit then in detroit a nothing in detroit top five st and they stay in the roof don't know that battle sport man it may hit yeah great for me and to me right me I don't know i thought about Jared Goff. He's got expiration date. He's he he did that with ah friendss And then he just started to struggle after they went to the Super Bowl. I think that was his peak year That was his year. I mean to be honest. They gave that game away to the Niners They should have won that game against the Niners And that was his year his peak year and then I think he's gonna have it down here, too I think Jared Goff's gonna regret regressed little we'll see what Aaron Rodgers does
01:04:25
Speaker
I don't know, I'll come in off an injury in his age and he was already struggling in Green Bay. But I mean, the Packers weren't that good of a team, but he struggled as well. He couldn't carry them. So, man. Anyway, I would probably just kick off Jared Goff and Aaron Rodgers and move back up and maybe even kick off CJ. Or put him down at 10. I don't know. But I just see them having a softball slump. I don't know. Did he get paid? He didn't get paid, did he? CJ Strom? No. yeah' still is is Is Jordan on his rookie deal?
01:05:01
Speaker
We're about to get paid. He's about to get paid. He's about to get paid. If he gets paid, he's definitely having a down year. I'm telling you right now. That's about 85% correct. When you look at it, I got to give you that much flow. You are correct. When you said quarterbacks, they get a big pay. They have a horrible year, man. Yeah. They have a bad year or they get injured something like Joe Burrow. Bad year. Yeah. Anyway, all right, guys. Appreciate you guys. Any final thoughts on the show or anything we talked about? Omar, any final thoughts?
01:05:34
Speaker
i got play ah Okay, what? I've seen him comment earlier about some excuse he had, and then I heard the baby... Oh! No no Laker, no LeBron news tonight, Jake. Oh yeah, I was gonna bring that up. So this is the final topic I was gonna bring. Thanks for reminding me, Tony. ah you You can talk about the Lakers as a whole, but are we... you You put a post up, Tony, that said, is Bronnie already a bust? me Are we, ah you know, talk about that and then you and Omar and Canteen, i you know, time in what you think is Brony already a bust. I know you kind of feel that way, Tony. give Give us your take on that. Let me get into my professor bag because I got some facts and figures for y'all. In four games, Brony James is averaging one point less
01:06:23
Speaker
than he did in college, ladies and gentlemen. 3.8 points a game, four rebounds. He's shooting 21% from the field, 50% from the free throw line, and 0% from the free. How are you a bust on a guaranteed contract? And you ain't even started your NBA career yet. How are you a bust when your dad has been busting his tail in the and NBA for 27 years? And you've been surrounded by NBA talent since the day you came off the teat. I don't get it. I don't understand that this kid is a bust, man. And respectfully, I think the Lakers are the new Kardashians. We could call them the Los Angeles Kardashians. That's what we forget, bitch. Whoa.
01:07:08
Speaker
so So, so you're saying Brony's a bust already? I'm saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, i yeah. so I'm saying, I said, I need James to get some rotational minutes at a ah JUCO. That's about the only basketball he's got to use for. What do you think, man? Is Brony already a bust? Man, I told you a couple of weeks ago and last week, man, I think he's riding his father's coattail, man. And and anybody that's in a prestigious position or that it's done where they would put their son in the same position. He needs to be developed a little more. We're going to him. He needs to focus his time and energy on becoming a better basketball player and leave all the other stuff that was behind.
01:07:50
Speaker
I mean, he's flying to dollars coach hill sorry, can you see, you see, he wanted to call ESPN, put this up as a highlight last night. Y'all. He wanted to call a duty championship versus Grant Williams. And they, how they, how they reported it is that Ronnie James beat a former Laker. I mean, a former Celtic, like they were favorite she says like so kind of na man like like, I said man i i think I think he'll just be a pawn on the chessboard for the Lakers. Now, I don't think he'll be like a star, but spectacular. I think he'll just be a pawn on the chessboard, man. It's all strategy theyre are they's strategizing what they're trying to do with him, but I don't think he'll be a star or nothing like that. But he need to work on his skills. So you're saying he's not a bust yet, but just bust potential?
01:08:32
Speaker
He ain't hey there yet. I tell you what, after Halloween, when the season kicked off, let me see what he does in an actual NBA game. Okay, so he's not a buss, he Yeah, because he, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Some of you got an Can I ask a question real quick? I'm sorry, I interrupt. look Go ahead. Can't let me answer this. What has LeBron James Jr. done to make you feel like anything's going to change by the time the regular season? Because when the regular season come up, we got the Anthony Edwards getting ready for work. We got the Lucas getting ready for work. Getting ready for work, yeah. He's not going to do it with these prospects.
01:09:08
Speaker
i'll i'lla I'll say this. Tony makes a great point. When he competes against guys of that nature, that caliber, he don't stand a chance. no you better hey he'd He better tighten up his shot group now. He's shooting all over the target. Get a nice tight shot group right now. That's what I got. What do you got, Omari? Is Brony already a bust? um I see both sides of the coin. I see what you mean by ah by a bust. I also see what cupboardee is getting at here when he says checking round bus budget work like get a second round even be a bust, which is true, right but this is not just any regular second round pick. It's LeBron. Exactly. He's the only second round with a press conference. With a press conference. He had his own press conference with the coach, with the head coach.
01:09:57
Speaker
close home man float dead
01:10:03
Speaker
glasses all are own ah just say it ah you' supposed to get a role mod yeah he's gonna i'm just I'm trying to be honest, bro. Blow going low. You take that F off you. And one thing about Flo, if Flo hits you below the belt, he don't care. Flo don't have no reports. He don't care about nothing. Not in sports, in sports is all fun and fair. Ooh, really? All fair, loving sports. Flo, you don't spare nobody with sports, and then you always gonna get your point across, whether you're wrong or right, you always gonna try to get your point across. Because I'm always right. What are you talking about? Man, with a scripture too, man. I'm almost always right. The word of the Lord, the word of the Lord. I'll give you some scripture, too. Hey, that one thing about folks who come through with that word. Yeah, I'll give you the word. I'll care more about that than sports, but anyway. But I'll give you some honesty, man. But yeah, what do you think,
Legacy Pressure and Future Potential of the James Family
01:11:01
Speaker
Omar? Did you say he wasn't a bust? No, he will be because of the fact that he has all this immense pressure on him.
01:11:07
Speaker
immense pressure in your LeBron son, it doesn't matter where you're picked, or even if he wasn't picked, they're still going to call you a buster, like they did for Michael Jordan's son, Jeffrey. when He didn't pay him. Right, right. It's just going to happen. and on Who averaged more points, weren more points per game in college, by the way. I mean, know for for him, he's under an amount immense amount of pressure as his father put on him, and so now he's wanted to do it. Do you think the the you think the pressure added to the bus potential? Sure, of course. And he's not a pro, just like Jalen Brown said. Jalen Brown went lying. He's saying what everybody else is thinking.
01:11:40
Speaker
and but to be ah mean That's fair. To be fair, Tony, just kind of give the other side of the devil's advocate side, ah you know. Tim Duncan, uh, names like Steph Curry, uh, Trey Young, several others, they didn't have great summer leagues and they ended up being great players. So just because you don't play well in the summer league doesn't mean you're a bust automatically. So I think I would go lean more to, he has bust potential and because of all the pressure that's being put on him by his dad and all, you know, all the attention that he's getting, I think he definitely has bust potential, but I, you know, there's a lot of guys who have
01:12:19
Speaker
not played well in the summer league, but then they had gone, on need you I think Carl Anthony Towns didn't have a good summer league. I mean, there's a lot of guys you can probably look back and think of who had bad summer leagues, but still played well in the and NBA. Hold up, we all had something to work with. Tim Duncan at Wake Forest, Steph Curry at Davidson. they Yeah, but they have bad summer leagues though. ah do Summer league, summer league. bri you want to brought up how you He do nothing in college. He ain't do nothing in summer league. Well, that's true. He in the college. He got Instagram posts where he ain't doing nothing. How you not doing nothing? You know, it's the Korean post. So it's like, Oh my God. You're not wrong. not You're not wrong about his college. I mean, but I'm saying that just because you don't play well in summer league.
01:13:07
Speaker
Well, I will even I'll even give him the benefit of the doubt in college. And I've said this being a UCLA fan, I saw USC play a lot and he was played out of position. I mean, he was doing the disservice anyways in college. But he's also just not a good shooter. And he's just high he's not a good player. Like we've got to call his fate his fate. That's fair. Can I throw it in this disclaimer, though, gentlemen? Go ahead. Throw in the disclaimer. I have a lot of faith in in the younger James boy, ah Bryce James. Yeah. I think he's going to be better. Yeah. He's looking good. And, and actually he has, I don't know, Ronnie James has the mom's height, like he's small. He's small, but the second one, he already six, six, and he's a sophomore, a junior. So he's still got a little growing to do.
01:13:52
Speaker
Right. Yeah, I think so, too. He has just because of the height. I think that's a big deal. I mean, that does make a difference. And there is a champ showing off his hat. WMP's camp. What happened to Ken? Ken just jumped off. Right, we're going to get freaked.
