1:00
gives a flip about the Solar Eclipse
1:02
rant? Door. Flies open
1:04
the studio. this dark studio of which
1:06
Brand the knows we don't talk. Though.
1:08
Conversation. I'll say a word. anybody. Knows.
1:12
Everyone knows. It's.
1:15
It's no joke. The are almost I would
1:18
say if you'd total out my words in
1:20
a day. What? Would you
1:22
think Brand and ninety nine percent of them
1:24
cap and right now with a microphone throughout

the the entire day? Yeah yeah I would
1:28
price a soccer unless I you probably have
1:31
many conversations with your kids. yeah but like.
1:34
The. Amount of business wise. yeah the matter
1:36
words that you hear from me outside of
1:38
what I'm doing right now would you say
1:40
it's less than five? I hear you say
1:42
hello to three people walking in and that's
1:44
it. And when we started the show are
1:46
you tell me what we need to record
1:49
up in as little word as possible and
1:51
that's fine. Yeah it other over there right
1:53
it is. I'm sorry I'd says backed of
1:55
living around me. It's is the way ago
1:57
we talk for a living. So as my.
2:00
As many times as we can, we don't talk at all. I don't
2:02
have that much to say. Well,
2:05
door flies open. You
2:07
jackass. I've waited
2:09
my whole life for
2:12
the solar eclipse. Frat
2:16
boy Isaac, flipping out. Flipping
2:20
out. OK.
2:24
I give. Then
2:26
he follows up and tells me, is he working
2:29
or going to a wedding on the day of
2:31
the solar eclipse? And it's
2:35
two minutes, everyone. It's
2:38
two. He
2:40
tells me it's going to get dark. OK. There
2:44
it goes. Two
2:46
minutes. If
2:49
you live here and you go and you
2:51
climb up Mount Pinell, it takes you an
2:53
hour and a half in traffic to get
2:55
there, and you want to bake your face
2:57
or fry your eyes or get high, whatever
2:59
you want to do. That's
3:02
one thing. I'm not doing it. I
3:04
really wish you'd hurry up and get going wherever you're going. But
3:07
to drive five, six, seven hours
3:09
to pack RV
3:12
parks for two
3:14
minutes of darkness. I'm
3:18
lost, man. I'm lost. Is
3:21
there something mystic that I'm missing here? I
3:24
mean, I know the tinfoil hat crowd is
3:26
going Y2K, and they're going all bunker
3:28
on us. And they're
3:30
alleging, I don't know, Fauci's doing something
3:32
terrible. I don't know. I mean, I'm
3:34
sure it's his fault. But just the
3:36
pure science of it, I get it's really cool. It's
3:39
once in a lifetime. That's nice. It's going to be
3:41
dark for two minutes. Hmm.
3:45
Hmm. I have a glass of wine to look
3:47
at your laptop. I don't
3:49
know what else to do. Am I
3:51
going to yell that every single day? You
3:54
don't understand. You
3:56
don't get it. You
3:58
hate science. Yeah,
4:01
well, I don't hate traffic. I do
4:03
hate traffic. Hey, I'm doing
4:05
as much as I can these days to lower my golf scores.
4:07
I know a lot of you can relate. And
4:09
that includes not just finding good equipment,
4:11
but the best equipment for me. Whatever
4:14
your handicap, if you want to improve your
4:16
golf game, pay close attention because you're about
4:19
to hear me use the term game changer
4:21
a lot and for very good reasons. When
4:24
PXG says nobody makes golf clubs like they
4:26
do, they're not lying. You may
4:28
have heard about the PXG Black Ops. That's
4:30
the driver that promises you don't have
4:32
to sacrifice distance for forgiveness. So
4:35
I had to try it. In fact, today I spent well
4:37
over an hour and everything you
4:39
hear is true. These drivers are
4:41
amazing. Here's the way PXG works
4:43
so you know you're getting the right fit for you.
4:46
You schedule a fitting. There's convenient locations all
4:49
over the country, so it's easy. You
4:51
meet with a PXG expert that helps you find
4:53
the right driver for you. In my case, I
4:55
met with Kevin. He walked me through
4:57
the ways to find the right Black Ops driver
4:59
for me. This includes the
5:02
shaft, the club head design, and even,
5:04
and this is very cool, the weight
5:06
of the club head, the toe, and
5:08
the heel. See they can adjust the
5:11
weight depending on the face
5:13
angle at impact. It's cool
5:15
science. Once you get the right
5:17
combination with the help of a PXG expert, you
5:19
are set. The PXG Black
5:21
Ops driver is a breakthrough in technology.
5:24
All the science you hear is true.
5:26
It's unlike anything you've ever tried. Kevin
5:28
explained the science behind it. The bottom
5:30
line is this. You'll get the three
5:32
things for the Black Ops driver you want. That's
5:34
more forgiveness, more distance,
5:36
no sacrifices. I played
5:39
a long time and I can tell you the
5:41
PXG driver is a true game changer. You'll be
5:43
blown away. All right.

a tangible asset, and think of all the reasons

why silver will be in demand. Electronics,

6:22
uncertainty rises, investors turn to precious metals
6:24
as a hedge, and right now, the

silver to gold ratio is at record levels. Gold

new roads. Ice Cube has
9:25
the big three league. This is the
9:27
three-on-three basketball league, and by the way,
9:30
they're playing three-on-three in the Olympics this
9:32
summer. Ice Cube. In
9:34
the Olympics? In the Olympics, yeah.
9:36
So we're just going to keep inventing new sports.
9:38
Yes, new sports, yes. Just to make
9:40
sure we win. Yeah. So we can't even
9:42
win five-on-five. No, we're not doing ...
9:45
So we're going to go down to three-on-three. Damn
9:48
Lithuania. Pretty soon we're just going to have a
9:50
dunk contest. We may not
9:52
win that either. Iowa's women's
9:54
basketball star Caitlin Clark has
9:56
been offered $5 million to play in
9:59
Ice Cube's big league. 3
10:01
league, $5 million. We
10:03
intend to offer to remain private with
10:05
Caitlin Clark as she plays for
10:07
the championship. ISQ brought on X, but I
10:09
won't deny what's now already out
10:11
there big 3 made an historic offer
10:13
to Caitlin Clark. Why wouldn't
10:15
we? Caitlin is a generational athlete who can
10:18
achieve tremendous success in the big 3, which
10:21
she can. Okay, they offer $5
10:23
million. Caitlin Clark is expected to be the
10:25
first player chosen in the WNBA
10:27
draft on April 15th by the Indiana
10:30
Fever. I know that's one of your favorite teams.
10:32
I watch all their games. The Fever. Name one
10:34
player. Sally O'Rourke. Yep. Sally
10:36
O'Rourke. You made that up, but okay. Keep going.
10:39
No, you made it up. Not true at all.
10:41
The WNBA rookie salary for lottery draft picks number
10:43
1 through 4 in 2024 this year are $76,000
10:46
and climbing to $97,000 by their
10:53
fourth season. That's all they
10:55
make. That's all they make. 76,000 for the season? 76
11:00
for the season and their fourth season it climbs
11:03
up to $97,000. Caitlin
11:07
Clark has been offered
11:09
$5 million. Should I
11:11
assume the WNBA is still losing money even
11:13
at that rate? Duh,
11:15
what do you think? You're paying $76,000 and you still
11:19
can't make it? I don't
11:21
see very much attendance at those.
11:23
No. Okay. Caitlin
11:25
Clark is capturing
11:30
a lot of people's attention. She just
11:32
played in the highest rated women's basketball
11:34
game of all time. Yeah. Oh yeah.
11:36
Because of her. Because of her. Yeah. It's
11:39
all because of her and she is
11:41
a generational talent. Okay. But I
11:44
know she wants to probably play in both. I'm not sure
11:46
what the... I've never seen a big
11:49
three league game. I'm not sure what the... Would
11:52
she be playing with the guys I assume? Could
11:56
we clarify? I mean that's kind of an important clarification. He's
11:59
offering her... $25 million, does that mean he's offering
12:01
the other two women on the team $100? What?
12:06
I threw you off, didn't I? You did. I
12:09
don't know. The WNBA loses roughly $10 to $12 million a year.
12:16
ESPN reached out to the WNBA and the league's
12:19
players union to see if Clark playing
12:21
in another league could be allowed under the current
12:23
collective bargain agreement, but they haven't got back to
12:25
him. The league does have
12:28
prioritization rules in its CBA
12:30
collective bargaining, which can
12:32
affect players who participate in overseas leagues, but it
12:34
remains to be seen if those would
12:36
prevent Clark's big three participation. I don't know
12:39
if she's going to ... Do
12:41
they have mixed leagues? No, I think they're all their
12:43
women's and their men's leagues on the
12:45
big three. There's
12:49
not a market for that. Well,
12:51
I- If you had her, there
12:53
might be. If
12:55
the WNBA is losing $10 million a year
12:57
with a salary structure that goes from $76
13:00
to $96, then
13:04
you're losing $12 million? Yeah. Yeah.
13:09
There's not a whole lot of revenue coming in
13:11
the door if that's what the balance sheet says.
13:14
I'm sorry. I mean, keep
13:16
going if you want. If you want to own a team, do
13:18
whatever you want. I assume that
13:21
it's partly subsidized if not fully
13:23
subsidized by the NBA. It is
13:25
fully subsidized. Clark already has a
13:27
considerable endorsement portfolio with companies such
13:29
as Nike, State Farm,
13:32
Gatorade, and Gainbridge,
13:35
which has naming rights for the arena
13:38
in Indianapolis where the WNBA's fever and
13:41
the Pacers play. According
13:44
to Bloomberg News, the
13:47
WNBA projects $200 million in revenue for 2023.
13:52
The league's projected to bring in between $180 to $200
13:54
million. That's
13:58
up from roughly $102 million. in
14:00
2019. That's positive, I guess. It's
14:02
racking up. Base
14:05
salaries as a share of the total
14:07
revenue decreased from 11% to
14:10
9%. Not good for the players.
14:12
That's going backwards, everyone. But
14:16
maybe she could save it. Maybe
14:18
she could, Jeff. Maybe she could. I know
14:20
it is the attention for the women's final
14:23
four is at a peak. It's been more
14:25
exciting than many years before. Okay. Of course,
14:27
Texas women will be playing on in Portland
14:30
this weekend. They're still in there, and
14:32
many people say they're going to go
14:34
the final four. Okay. Well, you haven't
14:36
answered the question. Is she going to play against... I
14:39
think she's going to have to play against guys to
14:42
justify the five million bucks. Garrett,
14:45
would you Google that? Is big
14:48
three all men
14:50
or women or transgenders
14:52
allowed? I'm
14:55
just asking a question, man, because there was
14:57
a story we had in the stack today
14:59
about... Oh, the stack where? Where was this
15:01
discussed? Next door. I'm shocked. USP weightlifting, a
15:04
transitioning male to a female
15:07
won a national weightlifting competition
15:09
yesterday. Yeah. Okay.
15:12
And that affects the taxpayers how? Well,
15:15
it's another dent in women's sports. Okay, I
15:17
just said, that's not the question I asked.
15:19
Why would Greg Abbott or anybody at the...
15:22
Greg Abbott was not involved. Okay, but it's
15:24
a story out of... But he has been
15:26
passing legislation to stop this.
15:28
And so I need examples of how
15:30
the taxpayers affected by this. Jeff, I
15:32
don't know. Maybe the taxpayers
15:35
with Title IX scholarships possibly or
15:38
affected. I don't know. Garrett, big
15:40
three. They've never had a women's basketball player
15:42
ever except now. So
15:44
it is mixed. She'll be playing with guys. She'll be
15:46
playing with guys. Yeah. Who
15:49
wants to say it? Go
15:52
ahead. Go ahead. She's not gonna get a shot off. What?
15:56
Are you kidding me? Have you seen this young girl shoot
15:59
the rock? She's
16:02
really, really good. She's fantastic. She's
16:04
not going against LeBron or Kevin Durant.
16:06
She comes off some stiffs who
16:08
couldn't make it in the NBA. I
16:12
should play the, you know, Globetrotters. I know.
16:15
I know. And you still don't think she could get
16:17
a shot off. That's what I said. There was a
16:19
story today. I'm glad you brought this up. Okay. I'm
16:22
just glad you brought this up. Go bring it. In
16:24
the Wall Street Journal. And
16:26
it interviewed. Transgender athletes? No, no,
16:28
no, no. It interviewed players who
16:31
played against her when they
16:33
were all small, when they were little kids.
16:36
Okay. Before, it's Wall
16:38
Street Journal, before Kaitlyn Clark
16:40
dominated women's basketball, she
16:42
dominated these boys. I'm sure she did. When
16:44
she was a kid. I'm sure she
16:47
did. I'm sure she was probably taller than the guys. Here's
16:49
a picture of her. Yeah, she's head and shoulders taller than
16:51
them. She's not much that much taller. She was just a
16:53
good shot then. She's a great shooter. Who
16:57
was it that she wasn't in the three-point contest
16:59
recently, but she could probably be in the three-point
17:01
shooting contest and hold her own with, I don't
17:04
know if I go as far as to say Steph Curry, but
17:06
she could hold her own against anybody shooting. That's
17:08
not what three-on-three is. They said if you
17:10
don't just stand out there in three-on-three and
17:13
just start firing shots from 40 feet away.
17:17
That's it. That's what they want
17:19
to see. They don't want to see two bruisers going
17:22
toe to toe. I was saying if
17:25
she was on a team, her and two
17:28
guys against three
17:30
guys, she
17:32
would struggle to score. If
17:35
Clark had a flaw, this is when she was younger, it
17:37
was her passing, but mostly because she didn't
17:39
see the point of it. Right. She was
17:41
just so much better than all of us, she'd get into
17:43
that mode where she's like, I can score
17:45
every point. So I'm going to do
17:47
that. It said Sterling Short, a senior at Grand Canyon
17:50
University. I had a glass of wine and
17:52
watched them play the other night. She is
17:54
the spectacular shooter. Against West Virginia. Yeah.
17:57
Yeah. But she's also being guarded by... Other
18:01
women. Feminist over here.
18:05
I am a feminist. He's a
18:07
real big feminist, everybody. Okay, put
18:09
her out there. I mean, go ahead. Turn everybody loose. Let's
18:11
see what happens. Pay her $5 million, and I'd love to
18:14
be wrong. I'd love to see her score like crazy.
18:17
But if three guys wanted to guard her like they guarded
18:19
anybody else, she'd have a rough time. She
18:22
wouldn't be that successful. I'm sorry. It's
18:25
just the truth. Jeff,
18:28
I think the three on three, you
18:31
could – she could be – I
18:34
think she's going to be legit on three and three, even
18:36
against guys. How many three
18:38
on three of this league have you watched?
18:41
You know, Jeff, maybe five minutes of it? You have not
18:43
watched five minutes? Oh, I have. I've
18:45
watched some of it. Yeah, I didn't – it didn't appeal
18:47
to me. I mean, look, if
18:49
they can set up plays where she can sit out and
18:51
it doesn't have a guy, a taller guy in her face,
18:54
they can out-jump her. Okay,
18:56
I'm sure she could score a lot, but I don't think that's
18:58
the way three on three is constructed. It's
19:01
a lot of one-on-one. Have you seen it?
19:03
Yes, I have. More than
19:05
I have, yes. And
19:08
if they play what I've seen in
19:11
three dudes, three on three, and they
19:13
go at each other one-on-one, she's going to have a rough
19:15
time. Why? I
19:18
mean, you're down there arguing transgender, and why is it
19:20
not – I'm not making that point. It's
19:23
not a fair contest. A
19:25
six-foot-three dude who's – who flamed out
19:28
the NBA could still guard her. I'm
19:30
sorry. It's true. I'll
19:33
have to see it. Okay. I'll
19:35
have to see it. Okay, fair enough. Yeah. I
19:38
think it's an interesting concept. But the six-three guard who flamed out
19:40
in the NBA is over in Europe now. He's not
19:42
playing big three. Okay. All
19:45
right. Well, we can go – you're right. That's true. So
19:47
we'll go even lower than that. Pretty
19:50
good college player who still wants to stay in
19:52
decent shape and play three on three. A
19:56
good college player, a college – a guy
19:58
college player, one-on-one. Well, if they
20:01
put someone against her, I'm
20:03
not sure how tall. How tall is Caitlin Clark?
20:05
5'10", how tall is he? I think she's taller
20:07
than that. Garrett, okay. So you're gonna... She's
20:10
pretty tall for a shooting number
20:13
two. Although she brings the ball up the floor from what
20:15
I've seen. 6'', okay? 6''. Ed,
20:18
1-on-1, she's not gonna score. I'm
20:22
sorry. I'll bet you a case of
20:24
wine right now, she'll score more than 4 points
20:26
in her first game. You're
20:28
gonna make sure of it. You know what I mean? For
20:30
5 million bucks. I... baby... Yeah,
20:32
exactly. Let me talk
20:34
to you guys about something right now. I'm paying her 5
20:37
million. You're getting a six-pack of beer. So here's what you're
20:39
not gonna do. You're not gonna run out there and block
20:41
her shots. Got it? Don't knock her
20:43
to the ground. Yeah. So... I
20:46
just wanna see it. Okay, I'm fine with that. I'm fine
20:49
with it. I think she's such
20:51
a talented athlete. She can go toe-to-toe
20:54
with a male in big three-leg because she's such
20:56
a good shot. I
20:58
may be brown wood naive about this, but
21:00
I think... Yes, if she is on a
21:02
team and she is free to shoot, she
21:05
will score. I don't... A
21:07
shooter is a shooter. I
21:12
agree with that. But
21:14
three-on-three in a classic street way is very
21:16
much a one-on-one game. You're not able to
21:19
set a bunch of picks to get somebody
21:21
wide open. Okay. It's not a
21:23
giant floor. I think she'll be able to do
21:25
that unless they put something like Manute bowl on her. You know
21:27
what I mean? Seven foot four.
21:30
I bet you she can get by Manute
21:32
bowl. I think she could too. Is he still alive?
21:34
Manute bowl? Yeah. I
21:36
don't think he should have said that. I think something happened. No,
21:38
I think he is alive. Isn't he Manute bowl? I hope so.
21:41
The great player from out the box. Okay, let's say
21:43
it's a six foot three really
21:46
good pickup male basketball player. What?
21:49
Dead. Dead? Damn
21:51
you, dead. He's been there for a while too. Oh,
21:53
no. Oh, man. That's
21:55
terrible behavior. I'm sorry. Nobody told me.
21:57
Why'd you go there? And
22:01
of all the people you came up with Manu Bull.
22:04
You came up with Manu Bull. I came up with a
22:06
larger one. Alive. Very much alive. I
22:09
don't think Akeem needs the money. I
22:11
don't think he needs three on three. I
22:14
hope it all works out. I do too. I hope it all
22:16
works out.
