You are listening to Draft
0:03
Kings Network. It
0:13
may sound dull. Maybe
0:16
even monotonous that this is
0:18
what miracles out like. This
0:21
is the sound of a child surgery be
0:23
performed by a robot. Our
0:26
personalized care leads to miraculous
0:28
things. Like
0:32
innovative procedures with less pain and
0:34
pass to recovery. Children's.
0:37
Hospital Colorado. Here. It's
0:39
different. This. Is
0:41
the that about car show with this
0:43
to get spot gas? Over
0:49
the years, to God we don't
0:51
have a lot of people who
0:53
get to work in our particular
0:56
playground and then leave to go
0:58
do many other things. We have
1:00
a place you know we're fortunate
1:02
to have these jobs doing the
1:04
silly thing And Chris Whittingham sat
1:06
in those old stinky studios in
1:08
and one time and said with
1:10
a straight face. In. A very
1:12
cramped studio that he would not want
1:15
to have. The career of Jim Gray
1:17
the Hall of Fame Hollywood Star. A
1:19
career of Jim Gray who still doing
1:21
a podcast with Tom Brady and is
1:23
one of the great you know sports
1:25
journalist. Whether you you can't dispute that,
1:27
he's one of the great sports journalist
1:29
that there's been correct. Ah, no doubt
1:31
he's a Hall of Famer I mean
1:33
and and Whittingham said I wouldn't rather
1:35
I would rather have his career. I'd
1:37
rather stay here. But Whittingham did get
1:39
what represents for him a dream job
1:41
it would be. likes to god's
1:43
getting program director and being able to
1:45
install himself as the morning show host
1:48
an the afternoon show how yeah big
1:50
of that the radar right program director
1:52
is second or third on my legs
1:54
i only one of the pd job
1:56
to give myself the dream job of
1:59
hosting afternoon drive Or
2:01
morning drive if you felt like it or anything.
2:03
I don't like morning. Okay, yeah, well maybe not,
2:05
but so that you could be heard wherever it
2:07
is that the world could hear you. But
2:09
winning him is now calling meetingful games.
2:12
Keep in mind, this is a person who
2:14
we were introduced to when he was doing
2:16
games at WFAN as a 17-year-old or whatever,
2:19
and we're like, what's WVU? W-A-M, that's a
2:21
5. Excuse me, yes, WVU. W-A-M, that's a
2:23
5 for me too. Double 5. A couple
2:25
of steps below FAN. My
2:28
fault. The campus radio
2:30
station, WVUM, listened to
2:32
by nobody, and now he is calling
2:35
nobody. Nobody was listening back then. Nobody.
2:38
He was doing calls. It was just us listening to
2:40
his games. It was eight of us. And
2:42
he was great. A prodigy. And
2:44
now he's making giant calls in
2:46
giant moments at the top of
2:48
the sport. And now breaking free.
2:52
From Paris D'Souremain, nobody back. Takimi's
2:54
dead company. Inbopé with
2:56
Cola Mwani. Inbopé to finish it off. The
2:58
save from Tersegan on the follow,
3:00
the save from Asensio. And
3:03
inbopé! Paris
3:06
D'Souremain into the semi-final. Killing
3:11
inbopé in his last dance with
3:13
the club with
3:16
the decisive goal. The
3:18
key is to like be yelling and then end it
3:20
quickly. He's so good. It's a good
3:22
goal! Murez
3:25
was not a good call. Listen to what I'm
3:27
talking about here. Paris D'Souremain
3:29
into the semi-final. Final!
3:32
Yeah, you're not doing it
3:34
as well as he does it. I didn't know what
3:36
was going on. I mean, big goal here. All right,
3:38
well, let's examine this. Someone made the semi-finals. Yes,
3:41
but also that he's being helped by
3:43
the rocket shot sounds
3:45
of a ball being saved and
3:47
going like you can hear the
3:49
ball being kicked. It's musically perfect.
3:53
Like his energy and tone in meeting
3:55
each of the moments brings you there
3:58
in a way that's really moving. breaking
4:01
free no
4:03
one is back, takimi has got
4:05
company Mbappe with Cola Mwani Mbappe
4:08
to finish it off the save
4:10
from Terstegen on the follow the
4:12
save from Asensio and Mbappe Mbappe
4:16
into the semi-final
4:20
killing Mbappe
4:23
in his last dance with the club with
4:27
the decisive goal and
4:29
here's what's one of the funny things about that is
4:31
he wasn't ready to call the goal he
4:34
was in the middle of saying Mbappe's name and then it sounded
4:36
like someone stuck a finger up his head and then Mbappe
4:41
and then Mbappe he
4:43
wasn't ready to make the call he was in
4:46
the middle of saying Mbappe's name and then Mbappe
4:49
and that's what it would sound like well how's your
4:51
uncle? he reacted well to that then that's
4:54
correct he had to that's why
4:56
we're saying he's good that would have been like hey
4:58
who's got a finger in my ass? that would be
5:00
a really weird goal it would be but
5:02
it would be weird for someone to do that at that moment
5:05
so did someone do that to Whitty or
5:07
not? at any moment sounded like it Ray
5:09
Hudson actually their
5:11
legends Majesty you Whitty's gonna
5:13
hate this segment what are we doing
5:15
in this segment? they're great together
5:17
what do you mean you hate this segment? yesterday
5:20
was a really cool sports day and
5:22
we largely ignored the
5:25
Champions League and the NHL we just said
5:27
it was crazy I mean it was like red
5:29
zone everything was happening at the same time it
5:32
was bonkers yesterday was a really it
5:34
was a beautiful day of soccer it was an incredible
5:36
day it was an incredible day both
5:38
Champions League games yesterday were incredible
5:41
especially the Dortmund-Athletico Madrid game where
5:44
teams just kept trading off spots in the semi-final and
5:46
to have Whitty at the center of
5:49
it calling Mbappe Mbappe
5:53
insurance goal there against it at that
5:55
point They were like a nine man
5:57
side in. Barcelona Red card after red card after red
5:59
card. Red Card. It was an awesome day
6:01
in sports. Honestly, it was one of those
6:03
days that you'll remember forever. And we're talking
6:06
about Ray Hudson Put his finger up Chris
6:08
winning him but. A
6:12

Dilemna towards all of us
7:14

8:00
don't know why I did the hip-hop. I'm in such a
8:02
good mood because we are here in New York
8:04
We're at the Empire State Building right now.
8:06
We have the WNBA draft. Everything
8:08
is freaking awesome And
8:10
I just think it would be such
8:13
a cool bit If
8:15
you let me move here, look how happy I
8:17
look. I got to hang out with a friend.
8:19
Who's friends this whole week? That's crazy So
8:22
just think about it. And I'm not
8:24
even counting Caitlin as one of those friends She
8:27
didn't say hello to me with her voice, but she did with
8:29
her eyes You
8:44
know, it'd be so crazy and so
8:46
cool She let me move
8:48
here Spreading the
8:51
news oh hang out with
8:53
Pablo. He would love to hang out with me.
8:55
I'm leaving today Charlotte's
8:57
gotta be pretty lonely up here Like
9:13
this here for a WNBA event, it's
9:16
insane. We love to see it. They're
9:18
amazing athletes So it was about damn
9:20
time. Is this your first WNBA draft
9:22
or yes. Yes. Why this draft? I
9:24
mean Caitlin Clark, obviously We're
9:27
from Iowa. Of course. We're Hawkeyes who
9:29
has been the player you were most excited to see so
9:31
far. I Love Rachia
9:33
Caitlin and Paige. I mean Caitlin, but
9:35
then I call Paige and like class
9:39
They all look so good. Like I have to say
9:41
Caitlin. I love her as a person. I love her
9:43
as a basketball player I feel like she just like
9:45
understands the game. This is so embarrassing I
9:49
have said this so many times before I would
9:51
die for her I said I wasn't gonna ask
9:53
any uncomfortable questions, but I have to do this
9:55
now Do you love Caitlin
9:57
Clark or your girlfriend more? Oh good question My
10:00
girlfriend of cour- No! No! My
10:02
girlfriend! No, cause I would be scared if I was in
10:04
a room. Ha ha ha ha! Amy
10:09
Lawrence. That's
10:13
Amy Lawrence. There's
10:23
my hero. What
10:25
a good teacher. Dan,
10:28
I feel alive
10:30
again. I think I'm back. It
10:32
was a really tough eight days, but I'm
10:34
feeling really good now. Kate and
10:37
Caitlin got drafted. I'm feeling awesome. Everybody looks
10:39
beautiful. You're probably like, Lucy, did you work
10:41
too hard? Is that why you're sitting down?
10:43
Not necessarily. I would say Rose did most
10:45
of the heavy lifting on this dress. I
10:48
have been rewatching Sex and the City. Every time I
10:51
rewatch Sex and the City, I'm like, I have got
10:53
to start wearing like, like
10:55
heels. So I wore heels
10:57
and my fever is so bad. So I'm
11:00
doing the full New York experience. I
11:02
had a blast. Thank you for sending
11:04
me here. And I cannot wait
11:07
to go to every Indiana fever game on
11:09
your dime. Let me know, my
11:11
friend. Charlotte,
11:16
give me money. No,
11:19
no. I
11:24
fear she's ripping us off. She
11:27
goes to New York to tell us to
11:30
send her to New York so that she
11:32
could just get close to Caitlin Clark, wherever
11:34
Caitlin Clark is, and just have the camera
11:36
with Caitlin Clark. Some
11:39
good access we got to Caitlin. Just every time that
11:41
she walked in front of a camera, we were there.
11:45
The first walk in front of a line of cameras, Metal
11:47
Art was there. I
11:49
feel like we just sent Lucy to the
11:51
WNBA draft to enjoy a party and to
11:53
sort of be in the general scent of
11:56
Caitlin Clark and ask people about Caitlin Clark.
11:58
That's exactly what you did. She
12:01
mentioned- She said hello with her eyes. True.
12:03
She mentioned Sex in the City which is
12:05
now on Netflix which is why a lot
12:07
of people are now watching it for the
12:09
first time and I have a Franco Harris
12:11
like admission to make which is that growing
12:14
up I was very confused
12:16
that there was a Carrie Bradshaw and
12:19
a Terry Bradshaw. That's a great that's
12:21
a great admission. So you thought that
12:23
the head of Sex in the City
12:28
a time of empowerment
12:30
for sexuality on HBO that that
12:33
that the star of that show
12:35
was Terry Bradshaw the former the
12:38
former Steelers quarterback who shared a
12:40
backfield with Franco Harris. Or that
12:42
the Steelers had a woman quarterback.
12:45
I wasn't really sure when I
12:48
was very young who Carrie Bradshaw
12:50
was. Shouldn't you have been?
12:52
Yeah I mean it was not that bad. Not
12:54
very young. For a show called Sex in
12:56
the City not a lot of
12:58
sex. Samantha was really the only sexually liberated one
13:01
and even now by our standards today I mean
13:03
that's the interesting conversation happening with the show Dan
13:05
is now younger people watching it and being like
13:08
wow is this what the 2000s were like? Yes.
13:10
They were. This was shocking. I was more so
13:12
just like are they related?
13:15
Is one of them the other one's wife or daughter?
13:17
Am I getting
13:19
the names wrong? Why do they rhyme? Did they
13:21
name the character after Terry Bradshaw? Turns out none
13:23
of those things are true. It just
13:25
was a coincidence I guess. I'm glad Lucy went
13:28
to New York so we could have this conversation. I
13:30
mean I would recommend one a
13:32
couple of things that I found recently on
13:34
Netflix that aren't Sex in the City. I've
13:36
been very disappointed with the reincarnation of Sex
13:39
in the City from the movie to all
13:41
of its forms whatever it is that Max
13:43
is doing. Yes I didn't I
13:45
hate watched the entirety of that but baby
13:48
reindeer I would recommend to you if you
13:50
want to crawl around in your own skin
13:52
and feel very uncomfortable around stalking
13:55
it is excellently done and I would also
13:57
recommend. I felt that watching Lucy's video.
13:59
Yeah. Agreed. You
14:01
can't resize the video but it's
14:03
caused two different conversations based on
14:05
Netflix shows. I've watched Baby
14:07
Reindeer and it is fantastic. It is creepy. I'm
14:10
surprised that you have watched that. I watched two
14:12
episodes. Okay. Did you think it was Reindeer
14:14
Games? I did. Guy Ritchie's The
14:16
Gentleman is also very good. It's really good
14:18
but like we saw the movie already. So
14:20
now the movie's like just like the show
14:22
but longer and I'm like eh. Not
14:25
for you? No, no, it's for me. Like
14:27
I like it. I've watched the entire thing but like we
14:29
saw the movie. You guys are
14:31
binging the wrong thing. What do you mean? Two
14:33
new episodes of Bluey Dropped. Yeah. I
14:36
mean. Of what? Bluey.
14:38
Bluey. I'm not in that demo.
14:40
I didn't like it. I only watched the long one.
14:42
I didn't see the new one. I didn't see the second
14:44
one. I saw the longer one. The second one. I
14:47
don't want to spoil it for people. The 28 minute one? Yeah.
14:51
Oh man. I was an emotional wreck
14:53
watching this. For those that
14:55
don't have kids. Is it ending? It's
14:58
kind of like a cliffhanger ending. Oh. Yeah.
15:01
I don't. Wait until 10 years from now
15:04
you find out they had it in a pitch for Damien Lillard.
15:06
Bluey tried to get Dame to the heat and he turned them
15:08
down. I don't want to spoil it for people but
15:10
I didn't like the little twist at the end. Dude.
15:14
When Bandit shows up, he pulls up
15:17
and he takes the for sale sign
15:19
out of the ground. When the entire episode
15:22
Bingo and Bluey are trying to sabotage
15:24
the house being zoled. I
15:26
gotta tell you, it hit
15:28
me. It hit me. I
15:30
didn't like the lesson. Sometimes life changes. I think the lesson
15:32
there couldn't be hey we gotta move to a new place
15:34
and it's all gonna be okay. The
15:37
lesson at the end of just oh you don't want to
15:39
move? Alright we're gonna stay then? The lesson is we know
15:41
how much we mean to you and this
15:43
would be a huge change if we went
15:45
away viewer. We're not going
15:47
anywhere. We're gonna be there for you. As
15:50
your child grows up and watches all
15:52
sorts of terrible children's TV programming, we're
15:55
gonna be that oasis in the desert.
15:58
We're gonna have the best example of a father
16:00
since the
16:02
1960s, honestly on television. Just a model
16:05
father. Since
16:07
who? You gotta go to
16:09
Black and White TV. Really?
16:12
Yeah. sitcom dads, you're talking about
16:14
model father's father. Father knows best.
16:17
Bandit is an icon. He
16:19
is dad goals. Phil Dumphie's pretty strong.
16:22
I feel like the sitcom dad lately
16:24
has been stereotyped to be like the
16:26
dumbass. Like that's been... That is Phil
16:28
Dumphie. That's modern family. I thought my father was
16:30
the death of the sitcom dad. I thought that
16:32
that's where it all went to die. You know
16:35
like, Bluey's parents
16:37
occasionally like allude
16:39
to Wilder Times when they were
16:42
single. And you know
16:44
they don't treat the parents like they're
16:46
idiots. And it's, I didn't
16:48
know, there were a couple of, there's a
16:50
show that deals with low-key miscarriages where they
16:52
make, they don't come out and say it.
16:55
But you know, there are
16:57
shows that have these really deeper messages
16:59
and you find yourself getting emotionally invested.
17:02
And then when they threaten to move it away, you're like,
17:04
no I'm not ready for this to go, Bluey. I'm
17:07
not ready for you to go. And then
17:09
that dad would have said, for sale sign out of
17:11
the ground. Strong dog. And you
17:13
realize that they're not gonna go anywhere. I
17:15
don't have to do this by myself. Yeah,
17:19
I'm getting a little choked up when I'm talking about it right now. So
17:21
Bluey's a dog but he's not Blue's Clues? Bluey's
17:23
a girl. Huh. But
17:25
a dog. Terry Bradshaw, Terry Bradshaw, all
17:28
over again! Blue from Blue's Clues
17:30
is also a girl. That was
17:32
stunning, that was stunning to find out. StuGots
17:35
also- So historically Blue is associated with
17:37
boys. We get it. Progressive.
17:40
Also stunning to find out StuGots. I
17:42
can't believe what I'm about to report.
17:45
Are you ready to get an explosive
17:47
report that perhaps you may have
17:49
missed? Yes, I know what
17:51
it is. Take a guess.
17:53
Hannah Cavender's coming back to UM
17:55
Women's Basketball. Nope,
17:58
that is not it. It
18:00
is something more in the Stu Gats wheelhouse,
18:02
but it also is in the rare place
18:04
where I also believe that Stu Gats has
18:06
said, dismissively, I'm tired of those. I don't
18:08
want any more in my life. There will
18:11
be no more of those. And what I'm
18:13
about to say is a Don Van Nada
18:15
Seth Wickersham Patriots report. Get out of here,
18:17
a deep dive. A deep dive into Belichick.
18:19
How is that possible? A deep dive into
18:21
Belichick. I thought he did his final deep
18:23
dive. You thought so, but there are a
18:26
couple of things here that I want to
18:28
share with you and the audience. This
18:30
is from Andrew Callahan of
18:33
one of the Boston newspapers. He is quoting ESPN
18:35
as saying this. It's where I'm getting my information.
18:37
It's how I'm finding out that it's Wickersham and
18:40
Don Van Nada. He told Confidence
18:42
he would be, Confidence. Sounds like it's
18:44
Callahan. He would be, it's not Callahan.
18:46
It's Van Nada and Seth Wickersham and
18:48
it's Callahan borrowing their reporting. Callahan a
18:50
great Boston name. It is a great,
18:52
anytime it's a Callahan in Boston giving
18:54
you Belichick information, it's credible. Break
18:56
the news that they decided when they were overseas
18:59
to get rid of him. Was
19:01
it Andrew Callahan? I think it was. Well, here,
19:03
he's now just quoting ESPN. It's a
19:05
classic Callahan reporting on what Seth Wickersham and
19:07
Don Van Nada are reporting, which is he's
19:10
told Confidence he'd be interested in coaching the
19:12
Cowboys, the Eagles, and the Giants. He
19:15
was blindsided by, I think he is, Deon
19:17
Sanders. He'll get one of those jobs. He
19:19
was blindsided by Atlanta's hiring of Rahim Morris.
19:22
He was not among the top three choices
19:24
for any of the Falcons' top decision makers
19:26
during their coaching search. He
19:29
is about to sign a media deal
19:31
with Peyton Manning's Omaha Productions. And
19:35
then what's also happening around this is
19:37
some people are saying that, and I
19:39
need to know what the reporting is
19:41
on this, whether it's Wickersham or not,
19:43
that Robert Kraft reportedly called Arthur Blank
19:46
to warn him not to trust Bill
19:48
Belichick as a potential head coach for
19:50
the Falcons. I need to know what
19:52
the reporting is on that. Who's reporting
19:55
that, because you're suggesting
19:57
that Kraft is actively getting
19:59
in the way of the Belichick getting a job. Is it
20:01
not Seth Wickersham? I think it's Don Van Nada.
20:06
They've got a third one on it though. There's a
20:08
third name attaching
20:11
them. Why would they have never taken a third? And
20:15
they've never taken a third person on a
20:17
deep dot. Fowler's a third one. Not Chris,
20:19
Jeremy. Put it on the poll. More prolific
20:22
reporting duo. Van Nada and
20:24
Wickersham or Woodward and Bernstein. Did
20:26
you know that Jeremy with Fowler and Chris Fowler
20:29
were not related? Really? Neither
20:31
were Kerry and Terry. Bernstein. That's
20:33
a fun. Don Lebba Tard. They
20:35
would try to bring
20:37
in some minority characters
20:39
and you could... Yeah they
20:42
tried. Louis Aguirre was one of them.
20:44
They tried to dabble in Latin flavor
20:46
and they went... Maurice Chestnut was one.
20:48
I think. Morris. Oh, Maurice Chestnut. I'm
20:50
sorry. God, what
20:52
a beefcake in that show. Miranda, why didn't
20:54
you stay with him? I mean we're gonna
20:56
go with Steve on this one. Seriously? Stugats!
20:58
Oh no. Clear out. I have
21:00
to issue an apology. Uh-oh. Oh no. Oh
21:03
no. Is it a Sex and the City
21:05
apology? I would like to formally apologize to
21:07
Blair Underwood for calling him
21:10
Maurice Chestnut. Oh no! Wow.
21:15
Look. LA law, man. Come on, yo.
21:17
This is the Dan Lebba Tard show
21:19
with the Stugats. It's
21:32
time for... Again the Fred!
21:35
And of
21:37
course it is sponsored
21:39
by Draft Kings. Stay tuned because you'll hear more
21:41
about Draft Kings and all it has to offer
21:43
throughout the show. Draft Kring's.
21:46
The crown is yours. That was one of
21:48
those Zion things. Like that's good for Draft
21:50
Kings when I did that. I
21:53
want the first crack at doubting the Miami
21:55
Heat and the playoff run. I will take
21:57
the Philadelphia 76ers minus. Wow,
22:00
just see that money line come in
22:02
for a couple of parley skis. I
22:07
do not believe that there will be some
22:09
magical pixie dust of playoff Jimmy tonight, but
22:11
I hope I'm wrong. According to DraftKings, that
22:14
line is five and a half points. So
22:16
you have Philadelphia minus five and a half?
22:18
It's DraftCring. Okay, sorry about that. Subtitling our
22:20
show, GiraffeKings. I
22:23
would like to take the first crack
22:25
at supporting this Miami Heat team and
22:27
believing in playoff Jimmy. The
22:29
Heat plus five and a half. They're going
22:31
to win the game outright, but I am taking
22:33
the Heat plus five and a half against
22:36
this friend. Against this friend.
22:40
The last prediction Stu got made was that Tiger Woods,
22:42
who finished in last place, would win the Masters. That
22:44
was a flyer, not a predictor. Yeah, I said, Chef.
22:47
Much like Jimmy Butler, none of your predictions ever stick
22:49
to you. So let's just keep it moving. I'm going
22:51
to take the Dallas Stars. I think they clinched the
22:54
top seed in the West with
22:56
a win over the St. Louis Blues. Blues were
22:58
feisty this season, but Dallas is really good. There's
23:00
about seven teams that can come out of the West,
23:02
and it wouldn't surprise you. I'm going to take the
23:04
minus one and a half on the
23:07
goal line against the spread. I'm
23:09
going to Friday's action, Sacramento Kings versus the
23:12
Norlins Pelicans. Sion, Ify, Hamstring, who
23:14
knows? I'm going to take the Kings plus
23:16
one, like the Beam. The Kring. The
23:18
Kring. The Kring. The Kring. Against
23:21
the spread. I'm going
23:23
to piggyback off of Stu guys and try to break
23:25
this tie. I have a very strong feeling about the
23:27
Miami Heat tonight. Wow. I
23:29
know what you guys are thinking. 76ers are a
23:32
better team. Maybe the case, but
23:34
they're not going to win by five and a half. I'm not
23:36
saying the Heat are going to win the game, but
23:38
the culture is not going to allow the Heat
23:40
to go down like punks and lose by five
23:42
and a half points. Take the Heat
23:45
tonight plus five and a half
23:47
against the spread. Yesterday on the
23:49
show Stu guys, we were celebrating
23:51
John Sterling. Chris Cody
23:53
did all of it, celebrating John Sterling, just so
23:55
that he could show a foul ball going off
23:57
of his face. And I didn't get it.
24:00
to this yesterday and I meant to and it's
24:02
just left over but one of the great sounds
24:04
in the show's history, Suzy Waldman was on the
24:06
sideline or not on the sideline she was doing
24:09
sort of radio adjacent broadcasting
24:11
and they were very excited
24:13
because Roger Clemens had
24:15
returned and was simply in a
24:18
skybox in Yankee Stadium and to
24:20
say that the reporting was breathless
24:22
is to understate it. Roger
24:25
Clemens, this is Roger Clemens
24:27
and Roger Clemens is coming
24:29
back. Oh my
24:32
goodness gracious of
24:34
all the dramatic things I've
24:37
ever seen. Roger Clemens standing
24:39
right in George Stuybrator's box
24:41
announcing he is back.
24:44
Roger Clemens is a New York Yankee. I
24:46
hated that moment because I was there
24:49
in 03 when we when Florida nailed it
24:51
when the Marlins fans nailed the send off
24:53
for Roger Clemens. I was proud of us
24:55
we were actually aware of what was going
24:57
on and he took that away from us.
25:00
Shades of Christopher Walken the way he
25:02
says in his box. The watch.
25:05
Habba haba I agree. I don't
25:07
know if you guys have noticed but you
25:10
know you have had me shouting at
25:12
the hills in a crazed sort of
25:14
fashion about things changing about the earth.
25:17
Coyotes are just leaving Arizona. They have no interest
25:19
in being in Arizona anymore and I just think
25:21
that we need to pay attention to some of
25:24
the things that earth is trying to tell us
25:27
about just coyotes are done. Like these are
25:29
scavenger animals. They know where to find food
25:31
and how to find food. Hold on a
25:33
second we had you shouting to the hills
25:35
like it was our plan. I know
25:37
what is happening is I am shouting yeah
25:40
for some reason earlier this week you were
25:42
surprised to learn because you live in a
25:44
cul-de-sac that Florida has a lot of guns.
25:46
There are a lot of things happening on
25:48
earth that are alarming and it's about the
25:50
Arizona coyotes moving to Salt Lake City because
25:52
that's not the animal that's the team. That's
25:54
the team. Oh I got the story wrong.
25:56
Yeah it's a team that has
25:59
been playing in Yeah, mullet arena. It's
26:01
got like 2,500 seats. Everything
26:03
about the coyotes has been amateurish
26:05
They have the worst plane in
26:07
the league. They're not paying their
26:09
hotel bills allegedly They have an
26:11
owner that keeps promising and getting
26:13
fans excited that they got Stadium
26:16
when they that they have a new stadium coming when they
26:18
don't even have the land They have to win it in
26:20
an auction and the Arizona
26:22
coyotes who were originally the Winnipeg
26:25
Jets moved, Arizona I
26:27
thought that there was a good passionate fan base there But
26:29
they've just had broken promise after broken promise
26:31
after broken promise Can you imagine the
26:33
Russians that are on that team being
26:35
told about the two drink maximum in
26:37
Salt Lake City? I'm so sad for
26:39
them However, there have been people that
26:42
have been doing good reporting on this
26:44
and they couldn't be more happy about
26:46
the move because everything about Arizona has
26:48
been small-time now Arizona and the existing
26:50
owner apparently of a five-year window To
26:52
get an expansion team because the NHL
26:54
realizes it's important to be in Arizona
26:56
and you may wonder I Tingentially
26:59
follow this sport. Why is Arizona
27:01
so important? Well, even
27:04
though Keith was playing there and you
27:06
can explain that to them the Kachuk brothers from
27:08
Arizona Austin Matthews an American
27:10
hockey player that is playing and
27:12
starring for the Toronto Maple Leafs
27:15
About to get 70 goals. He's
27:17
from Arizona Does he have
27:20
access to this sport if this franchise doesn't
27:22
exist there? You're starting to see how Florida
27:24
is sprouting this amazing hockey culture Wayne Gretzky
27:26
just announced that his Academy is coming to
27:28
West Palm Beach, Florida You're getting this beautiful
27:31
game growing in other parts of the country
27:33
and while I'm super excited for Salt Lake
27:35
City They've been trying to get a franchise
27:37
for a long time And it seems as
27:40
though it'll finally feel like a major league
27:42
operation when they've been an island of misfit
27:44
toys for a long time But I really
27:46
sincerely hope that whatever the ownership situation is
27:49
in Arizona and in the greater Phoenix area
27:51
That they figure it out because hockey
27:54
really Belongs in that area
27:56
and the nation is better for having
27:58
hockey in that area I could tell
28:00
you where it doesn't belong, Utah. Mm. Guys,
28:03
come on. What? That was ass off by
28:05
Dan. And you're just gonna brush it aside?
28:07
It was. I mean, we couldn't even tell
28:10
if you were serious or not. I thought you were
28:12
for... We could've done the whole segment talking about actual
28:14
coyotes in Arizona. I was so excited about hockey. We're
28:17
talking about hockey now? Wait, today should be a scene. It's
28:19
important for Arizona to have a hockey team because three
28:22
NHL players were born in Arizona. There's been more. And
28:24
by the way, that's your first... Hockey will be fine
28:26
without Arizona, Mark. They wouldn't have seen hockey if they'd
28:28
not had it at one time. Billy, Billy, with all
28:30
due respect, I'd just rattle off the first scoring line
28:33
for Team USA, hockey. All with Arizona roots. That's
28:36
pretty damn good. All right? And
28:38
it's going to be an insane scene tonight
28:40
in Arizona because I think I may have
28:43
alerted a lot in our audience to the
28:45
fact that they've been playing in Arizona State's
28:47
hockey facility. You have Connor McDavid
28:49
and the Edmonton Oilers going to a 2,500 seat
28:52
arena today in which the locker
28:54
rooms are essentially held up by
28:56
curtains. It's probably... It might
28:59
be the last professional hockey game in
29:01
this state for quite some time if their
29:03
ownership group doesn't come to the table. And
29:05
I can't think of a better place to
29:07
find tickets than Game Time. Yeah. That's
29:10
right. If you're in Arizona and you
29:12
want to see your yodis for the
29:15
final time, why don't you download the
29:17
Game Time map, create an account, and
29:19
use code DAN for $20 off your
29:21
first purchase. Terms apply. Last-minute tickets. Like
29:24
this scenario. You know, sometimes leading up to the
29:26
event, the ticket prices go down. That's why you
29:29
always got to monitor the Game Time map. You
29:31
do that, and I promise you, you use that
29:33
code DAN. Not only will
29:35
you get $20 off your first purchase, but
29:37
you won't see any hijinks, upfront
29:39
fees. You even get to see where
29:41
you'd be sitting in this 2,500 seat arena. I
29:45
love you, Game Time. Thank you
29:47
so much. Lowest price guaranteed. Shame
29:50
on you. Shame on all of you. That's Game 1.
29:54
Imagine how Dan must feel right now. All of
29:56
his teammates just left him hanging, thinking, surely
29:58
this man can't be so silly. that
30:00
he thought coyotes were leaving Arizona. We were ready
30:03
to power them. And not the coyotes. And
30:05
we could have gone with it. We
30:07
could have yes and a Dan. And
30:09
instead, you had to do some stupid
30:11
little bit about hockey and game time.
30:13
Thank you for sponsoring the show. But
30:16
it's ridiculous. That felt like
30:18
an insincere thank you. Thank you for sponsoring the
30:20
show. Thank you for sponsoring the show. But we
30:22
could have done the read another time. Thank you,
30:25
thank you. Can we just play again? You got
30:27
some Matthews gets a 70. Do
30:29
you guys understand where we're headed for
30:31
two months? We haven't seen that since
30:34
no gillney. Mike hit you with
30:36
another with all due respect and the playoffs
30:38
haven't even started yet. Another with all due
30:40
respect. The hockey players just like
30:43
poo pooing the top scoring line. You
30:45
do not poo poo the kachuck name. Don't poo poo
30:47
it. And Austin Matthews. Don't poo
30:49
poo it. What he's saying is they would
30:52
have arrived where they arrived whether hockey existed
30:54
in Arizona. Or not. The
30:56
kachuck name. The kachuck brothers probably.
30:59
They could have just as easily started in Winnipeg. But
31:02
great American hockey name. This big city bias.
31:04
We have all the major sports teams. So
31:06
we just assume that all these little towns
31:08
don't produce any professional athletes because they don't
31:10
have professional sports teams. And I'll have you
31:13
know the bread and butter professional sports. The
31:16
home man. He misspoke. This
31:18
country. Spokes. Spokes. Coming
31:21
from the maker today of in our Panther group chat. I'm
31:26
not scared of the lightning. Higher
31:29
premise. On the premise. Spokes.
31:33
Draft. Kring. Kring.
31:37
I'm not irrational. They had
31:39
that coyote. We're leaving Arizona. I'm feeling
31:41
less dirty.
