To Chicago A Good Karma Brands radio
0:16
station. The
0:20
shot over a low. It's
0:22
noticed they shot. The
0:25
shot was I do a Cleveland sports
0:27
fan too and he said to me
0:29
he didn't know who he hates more
0:31
you know the Chicago sports fan or
0:34
the Denver sports fan because of our
0:36
were bigger M J, then the World
0:38
Series. think about how tortured they are.
0:41
couple of the drive there were a
0:43
couple drives bioware against the Browns back
0:45
in the day. when wasn't that wasn't
0:48
there? In earnest binary fumble in there
0:50
was yeah and then the drivers and
0:52
I'm they've been tortured and certain. Ways
0:55
for sure and then Michael did it to them.
0:57
A couple of different types, hit a couple of
0:59
game winning shot and then to tie the game
1:01
in game seven. And. Then end
1:03
up using it after seventy many rain
1:05
delay. Yes, That's. Still the
1:08
most electric thing I've ever been. A
1:10
yes pressure and I was crazy. So
1:12
here's Doug Collins who was the coach.
1:14
He joined us about a month ago.
1:17
I always text God on this
1:19
day. Happy Anniversary because I
1:21
always remember him running around like Jim
1:23
Valve. Ah, now we reminisced with him
1:26
back then I I texted am Happy
1:28
Anniversary thirty five years ago. Today was
1:30
the the anniversary of The Shot and
1:33
this was his story of what happened
1:35
that day. Game Five These weren't seven
1:37
game series in the first round, there
1:40
were five game series. Give you a
1:42
background because if it jordan Nest free
1:44
throws. that last game for the Bulls
1:47
could have ended the series. and four
1:49
games. But. I dug tells you
1:51
have a what happened and why he turns
1:53
it sunday silence will let let me to
1:55
clear up your theory for you to the
1:58
last game of it be that bad. year
2:01
we played Cleveland. They did not play
2:03
three of their starters and they beat
2:05
us. We were only six
2:07
against them going into the
2:10
playoffs. And so I thought
2:12
our preparation was really
2:14
spot on and we
2:16
were ready to go. And so
2:18
we went to Cleveland, we went game
2:20
one, Mark Price doesn't
2:23
play, then they win game two. We
2:25
went game three. Now with
2:27
game four, we got a chance
2:29
to win the game. And Michael
2:32
misses two or four free throws late
2:34
in the game. Brad
2:36
Doherty gets fouled. He makes two free throws,
2:38
send the game and overtime they beat us.
2:40
Now we got to go back there for
2:42
game five. So Saturday
2:44
we're flying to Cleveland
2:47
and that's the day of the
2:49
Kentucky Derby. And so
2:52
we got to the hotel and
2:54
we were checking in and I
2:56
said to somebody, who won the Kentucky Derby today?
2:59
And they said Sunday silence. I
3:02
said, okay. So as we were getting ready to
3:04
check in, I stopped the guys. The guys just
3:06
want to say something to you. The
3:09
Kentucky Derby winner today was
3:11
Sunday silence. That's what
3:13
it's going to be like tomorrow in Cleveland when we
3:15
beat them. And Michael at
3:19
that shot and it
3:21
went Sunday silence in Cleveland.
3:24
But what it meant to me was
3:26
how important
3:28
it was to win, win that
3:30
series to move on. But I
3:32
thought guys that Michael
3:35
shot, I thought that
3:37
was the beginning of the
3:39
Chicago Bulls that was starting to be
3:41
ready to be champions. That's what I
3:43
thought that meant. And we
3:45
took that momentum. We went
3:48
to game one, we beat New York
3:51
and then we won that series in
3:53
game six. And if you remember correctly,
3:55
we were up four And
3:57
late, late in the game, I think maybe under 20.
4:00
The second something along those lines were a
4:02
time out. As. The guys
4:04
were up for whatever. You know, it's
4:06
not know bows, you know just what
4:08
we're in position. We got it through
4:11
possession, lazy or whatever. so. New
4:14
York? Want to play for a talker?
4:17
Those. Up to shoot a shot at
4:19
Patch you Patrick Ewing hip checks of
4:21
digital was and to trent talked or
4:23
he makes the spot or yeah, a
4:26
four point play and now we're tied.
4:28
so I took a timeout. And
4:30
which is a timeout? The who's nine seconds
4:33
to go? Something like that. York had no
4:35
time outs left. And I
4:37
said michael. Don't. Shoot Jump
4:39
Shot. I. Said the referees know
4:41
they just missed that miss. That call,
4:44
drive the ball to the basket
4:46
and put the pressure on him to
4:48
call a foul. He. Did he
4:50
made the two free throws up? We
4:52
went that series would you know to
4:55
play the next? as a reply to
4:57
Detroit and we when the first series
4:59
of that game. Gets. Three to
5:01
that was the most the get the
5:04
ball the Michael get the out the
5:06
weights and game on what up to
5:08
one but sir says the I just
5:10
the when I think about it I
5:12
start get excited because it was such
5:14
a wonderful time And does you know
5:16
this? There's nothing like. This.
5:18
As the city of Chicago, whether
5:20
d hockey or whether be basketball
5:22
is a spring during the playoffs.
5:25
walking up and down Michigan Avenue
5:27
there's no better place to be.
5:29
And we miss that ceiling and
5:31
Carme was talking about it the
5:33
other day and you know as
5:36
he went through the different cities
5:38
that have multiple seems that are
5:40
still alive and a post season
5:42
hockey in the N B A
5:44
so other did ya integrated everything
5:46
including storyteller. he's the. Best stories
5:48
are there is So again today's the
5:51
thirty says anniversary. We're saying like other
5:53
than winning championships like where does this
5:55
one ranking what are your favorites or
5:58
reminisces or was that was. A
6:00
championship or that was a
6:02
series when course a playoff clinching
6:05
series moment doing horrible as
6:07
a valid. Anniversary.
6:09
Green. He was even saying it's one of
6:11
the most historic shots and and be a
6:13
history, it's the one that used to be.
6:15
I'm like the N B N N B
6:18
C. It's introduction. Yeah, And. Jordan
6:20
celebration and like did, says
6:22
everything about that. Was. Outstanding.
6:25
Yes, I mean this. this
6:27
does. Maybe I'm a stickler,
6:29
Just a jackass. This one
6:31
does. You. Know is it does
6:33
register because it was a playoff win and
6:35
not only was it a play off when
6:37
it was a series clinching. Shot
6:39
for a playoff win. So yeah one
6:41
of our theory would to Yesterday was
6:44
Kerry Wood's twenty strikeout game anniversary. Adversely
6:47
worthy. Anniversary worthy yell
6:49
it's worthy of an anniversary. It's one of
6:51
the most dominant had to go on and
6:53
says I'm one of these I'd house. How.
6:56
Many guys around I now somebody somebody breaks
6:58
that. Know I could fly
7:00
high Means and Randy Johnson both did it
7:02
and inclement foods. Weiss Inlets analytically that's Village
7:05
people have said that that is why is
7:07
more dominant than many oh hitters your head
7:09
or whether we had a one hit Earth
7:11
when you record will make their own hitter
7:14
in It was basically Kevin aura down as
7:16
an error tortured and in the aisle grata
7:18
groundball ago when allow her B O think
7:20
you'll probably never see anyone do that again
7:23
because pitches aren't allowed to throw that many
7:25
pitches that right Oh my goodness if you
7:27
include over vase if you it to fifteen.
7:29
Strikeouts. You're out like a hundred pitches and your
7:31
you gotta go cameo Pitches: Did he throw in
7:34
that game? Two. Hundred and forty. I've
7:36
got the A Box score on my wall.
7:38
The I've got the official scorecard on my
7:40
wall from that game although the official or
7:42
car the on the questions December game on
7:44
your wall as well. No I will not
7:47
really dead. Here's my question is will be
7:49
no was covered. The carry would get the
7:51
picture that you haven't had any allow. Died.
7:54
and my guess is the box score back then
7:56
didn't really have pitch counts know i bet it
7:58
did you do some willing to you a
8:01
hundred twenty six pitches. I've got the number here. You want
8:03
to guess what it was? 147. No
8:06
way. Miller? 126. Yeah I think Silvie's pro. I'm
8:08
gonna guess 131. 122. 122. It
8:12
was four pitches off. There
8:15
was a lot of swing and miss. Yeah. Oh
8:17
yeah. When you strike out 20. I know
8:19
I mean but my point is at least 20
8:21
of them probably. But my point is is there
8:24
weren't a whole lot of foul balls either. There
8:26
was a ton of just guys couldn't miss. It
8:28
couldn't hit anything. Jonathan in Fox Lake you're
8:30
on ESPN 1000. What's up Jonathan? Hey
8:33
guys for me it's the blackout
8:35
game. One nothing. Tomy hits the
8:37
home run. Ken Griffey throws his
8:39
cadaier out at the plate. Atmosphere.
8:41
Those pictures are great from
8:44
that game. It's like and I'm
8:46
not even a Sox fan. It's one of
8:48
my favorite Sox games ever. That stadium was
8:50
electric that day. And
8:54
like it reminds me of the Joe
8:56
Kim Noah game. Where even though they
8:58
win the championship that year and it
9:00
wasn't even a series win. It was
9:02
just one of
9:04
those memorable games that you'll
9:06
never ever forget. One
9:09
nothing. Ken Griffey Jr.
9:12
throwing out a run. How old was Griff at that point? Old.
9:14
37. 38. It
9:16
was the Kenny Williams special. Signing
9:19
the guy who he always wanted. I
9:21
don't think he hit much for them. He played
9:24
good defense. John Dank started
9:26
that game. Now the Chris Getts
9:28
special is you you sign a 36
9:31
year old time you fans. And then
9:33
you slip him for a dollar. They're
9:35
passing down from generation to generation. Tony
9:37
and Skokie you're on ESPN 1000. What's
9:39
up Tony? Not much. I'm watching
9:41
you guys on YouTube which I love doing
9:43
now. And uh. Toni. Toni I love your
9:46
Mad Max haircut. Oh
9:48
thank you very much. Is that a Mad
9:50
Max haircut? You're welcome. So I am a
9:52
Detroit fan. I I'm waving
9:54
back. I see a thumbs up. I'm
9:57
a Detroit fan and I remember watching
10:00
that series when I was like in eighth grade,
10:03
hoping that the Bulls would beat those Cavs,
10:06
and then hoping that the Bulls would beat those
10:08
Knicks. So
10:11
I remember my dad smoking a pipe or he
10:13
was sitting in the basement and jumping up when
10:15
he hit that shot over Elo. And
10:18
I think if they ever redo the NBA logo, it
10:20
should be the fist pump that Michael does after hitting
10:22
that shot. Because you just knew you could handle the
10:24
Bulls at that point that you had the Bulls number?
10:29
Well, obviously we didn't, because they took
10:31
us to seven. But
10:36
I thought at the time they would
10:38
be an easier win after going through
10:40
the Celtics for so many years before
10:42
that. Yeah, people don't realize how good
10:44
those Cavs teams were. Like
10:46
I always say that like that's the
10:49
most underrated team the Bulls ever played,
10:52
who are younger. And I always said
10:55
that some of those LeBron teams weren't
10:57
as good as those Cavs teams that
10:59
Michael faced. It's a very big hot
11:01
take, but that was a great
11:04
Cavs team. What did you say earlier? It
11:06
was Larry Nance, it was Brad Doherty. Right.
11:08
It was Hot Rod Williams, Mark Price, who
11:10
was very like a John
11:12
Stockton type player, could hit the jump shot,
11:15
Kevin Elo. Kevin Elo. Yeah,
11:18
Craig Elo, I know you know. It
11:20
was at Nance, right? Yeah, Larry Nance. Hot
11:24
Rod Williams. We got
11:26
a look on the bench to see who else, but it
11:28
was a very good team. They would win like 60 games.
11:31
I bet you like every year they'd win between
11:34
55 and 57 games a year. Who
11:37
was their coach? Benny Wilkins. Benny Wilkins. One
11:39
of the winningest coaches in NBA history. It
11:42
was them, it was the Sixers with
11:44
Barkley, it was the Knicks with Ewing.
11:47
It was a good East. There was some
11:49
good teams back in the day, very physical. They
11:52
had some good skill guys who could shoot it. Lenny's
11:56
still with us, he's 80. Ron, Ron, Ron, Ron,
11:58
Ron. Yeah, I
12:00
forgot how could I forget Harper like and
12:03
Harper was great then too Very
12:06
good defensively like it was
12:08
having some knee issues after
12:10
the Clippers days, but still could score See
12:13
I was a little younger So sometimes because
12:15
Jordan beat the Cavs with a shot later
12:18
on right a couple years later a couple
12:20
years over Carol Wilkin Right so sometimes I
12:22
like make like and Johnny Ray
12:24
first Sunday silence part two or something like
12:27
that with his call It
12:29
was great. I three one two three three two
12:31
three seven seven six Aki's a list coming up
12:33
and Michael Wilbine at 430 It's
12:36
time for Aki's a list
12:39
From the mind of the man
12:41
who understands the four P's of
12:43
wattles world Aki's a
12:46
list The
12:49
top questions and topics floating around
12:51
in Tyler Aki's mind Are these
12:53
really the questions that I was
12:55
called here to answer Aki's a
12:58
list on ESPN? Chicago true
13:00
waddle fashion waddle turns to me
13:02
Tyler and says Chocolate
13:04
makes me feel funny sometimes does
13:06
I think I have a food allergy to chocolate when
13:09
they're not gonna stop Just
13:11
like it just has a
13:14
weird internal reaction What
13:16
are you eating there brownie? It's a brownie
13:18
a Brownie bar
13:20
Cliff bar gotcha gotcha All
13:23
right A little bit of
13:25
cubs here because the bullpen got some
13:27
nuts in it too. Oh, yeah, maybe
13:30
you have a nut allergy Anyway
13:37
the bullpen surrendered six runs
13:39
younger today All
13:41
in one inning and if you look
13:43
at the way that the starters and
13:46
the bullpen have Performed over the since
13:48
the start of May the Cubs starters have gone
13:50
34 And 2 thirds innings
13:52
and allowed just to earn runs They
13:54
Have a point five one ERA The
13:56
bullpen on the other hand has gone
13:58
20 and a third. The name is
14:00
allowed seventeen earned runs as a seven point
14:03
five to he or a this on the
14:05
month of May. So far as the caught
14:07
have have, the Cubs bullpen reached a tipping
14:09
point where you'd be willing to give up
14:11
a little bit more than maybe you'd anticipate
14:14
in order to get a bullpen arm. And
14:16
their, what does that mean like maybe a
14:18
little bit uncomfortable parting with one of your
14:20
prospects. Much.
14:27
Why you build up your farm system isn't
14:30
it? So now that to round up to
14:32
the big leagues theme but also to use
14:34
them to acquire players. Member.
14:36
All the belly aching people were doing
14:39
when you hear what you gotta a
14:41
pretty good starting pitcher and container who
14:43
is a two or three and you
14:46
had to give up to prospects and
14:48
people bellyache for years about that The
14:50
else now you want to maybe give
14:52
up a prospect from bullpen Arm whom
14:55
it may be isn't even like the
14:57
best bullpen arm. Where.
15:02
Do you want give up? One
15:04
of probably know you're gonna have
15:06
you got talent Reds farm system
15:08
you do. Not
15:11
just that, but it's it's not dealt of the
15:13
system. What I'm what can map Nervous: Get me
15:15
these deaths you want middle of a city? Get
15:17
me Bucket A boss employee com where the bullpen.
15:20
Honestly I thought he was one of your bullpen
15:22
arms these days. So. Can
15:25
you par with them? Can impart with him
15:27
that he might get your bullpen Catherine audible.
15:29
Ten Arms. Like
15:33
you're gonna have to. I mean he's definitely
15:35
not stand at the Des Moines The Hilton
15:37
Special Room. He's got the whoa. He's got
15:40
a he could buy a house in Iowa.
15:42
Yeah, I'll take
15:44
on Tasty if you want. Can now
15:46
see like only tasty is untouchable. Know
15:49
the mayor's Omaha, his lawyers someone great
15:51
He ever maybe someone in like V
15:53
eight to twelve range. of
15:55
your pride francis the i think you've i just
15:57
need to tread water and listen paid for it
16:00
might be the solution for the bullpen
16:02
this year because then what because he's
16:04
starting and then it pushes another guy
16:07
into the bullpen you know using him
16:09
in the pen I think by the
16:11
end of the year he could be
16:13
your high-leverage reliever because listen Craig counsel
16:15
especially when he was in Milwaukee he
16:17
brought guys like Corbin Burns and
16:20
Brandon Woodruff along as bullpen arms before
16:22
they became starters the next year I
16:24
think Kate Horton could be the solution
16:26
down the road for the for the
16:29
Cubs as a reliever Ben
16:31
Brown would also fit that mold as well.
16:33
It could be both those guys. Well may
16:35
be already starting with Ben Brown. Yeah
16:39
I'd imagine you guys are a cinch
16:41
to win the World Series now with
16:43
this plan. Or
16:45
you guys go out and trade a prospect and get
16:47
a reliever. This plan is gonna bring you a ring.
16:51
They will do that. They
16:54
are gonna do that. It's just a
16:56
matter of so who's the
16:58
A's closer it's Mason Miller.
17:00
I heard the guys talking
17:02
about that this morning. That's
17:04
gonna take multiple prospects
17:06
to get him. The price is gonna be
17:09
too high. How do you know if he's
17:11
any good? It's the A's. When are they
17:13
ever nursing a lead?
17:15
They're only like two games out of the
17:17
division right now aren't they? Yeah and he's
17:19
in the second year of control. He's not
17:22
being traded by the A's. He's the only
17:24
guy who's recognizable in terms of a player
17:26
that people get excited about. Or if he
17:28
is he's going to take your top two
17:30
prospects or a couple of prospects like that.
17:32
But the way that arm injuries are right
17:35
now. Do you really want to trade for
17:37
a guy who throws 100,
17:39
300, 4 miles an hour? No. I
17:42
would be very scared to do something like that. Especially
17:45
for multiple big-time prospects. Colleen
17:48
Kane had a really good piece in
17:50
the Chicago Tribune earlier today talking about
17:53
going through each position group for the Chicago Bears
17:55
and saying whether they've gotten better stayed the same
17:57
or gotten worse. The only...
18:00
The small group. That. Got
18:02
worse was the defensive line. She
18:04
said everything else was either the
18:06
same or has improved from last
18:08
season. Do you agree that only
18:10
the the defensive line has regressed
18:12
from last season on paper they
18:14
give it to has regressed. It's
18:16
marginally yeah. You're making doc
18:18
ways the only guy me I guess Justin
18:20
Jones they lose just and just as he
18:22
signed the L for habit like I mean
18:25
you've you've got guys. I went over when
18:27
they're probably why she thought that know I'm
18:29
act at it. I mean is this is
18:31
going to if you look at where they
18:33
started last year versus I know Smith going
18:36
with where they finish but mine has swept.
18:38
wasn't on the roster. Went to be amazing
18:40
Not an access point. And.
18:43
The season started. Yes! I
18:46
mean I I say give and
18:48
they're signing somebody else. Yeah, many
18:50
could be noted. Resign and and
18:52
gunfire sir. And a
18:54
yeah I think I think the moral of
18:56
this story is is that. They're.
18:58
Pretty good shape right now. If
19:00
you have to think hard and really kind
19:02
of talk around the conversation to come up
19:05
with a a good solid answer, The new
19:07
Vom. You. You've done some work.
19:14
Mean I I don't think who else or
19:16
the what other position I can't think of
19:18
a different position that where they're not better.
19:22

21:38
luck and so I got caught. I.
21:41
Caught myself. My left hand
21:43
got down to the asphalt
21:45
before I didn't fall. So.
21:47
i didn't take the brunt of a lot
21:50
lot lot worse but it was it provides
21:52
for most of it but i was trying
21:54
to spin or in his athletic as i
21:56
used to be ah and prod the left
21:58
corner of my You know
22:00
sort of eyebrow on the
22:02
asphalt. So did you hop up real quick
22:05
and Sam? Okay. I'm okay. I'm okay to
22:07
Help the funny thing was people were trying to help
22:09
me up. I said no, just let
22:12
me sit here and feel stupid Just
22:16
let me be here and I didn't
22:18
have a concussion I didn't have any pain I didn't
22:20
go to a hospital I had a little bleeding
22:22
but the cut is in the eyebrow So
22:25
you can't even see that But
22:27
it was you know, it was a big fat shiner. I had
22:29
it out of my face,
22:32
you know for the first few days It was certainly
22:34
Monday So it was a
22:36
week ago was the pride a little bit more injured than the
22:38
eye. Oh Much more.
22:40
Yeah much more. Oh the
22:43
embarrassment there was there was But
22:46
some of them are spent trust me. I Couldn't
22:49
believe it because we didn't know what was going
22:51
on at first until I saw you put
22:53
it out on social media I'm like
22:55
why is Wilbond wearing sunglasses? Is this
22:58
like at first? Is this a PTI
23:00
bit? You know
23:02
next day the sunglasses were on and
23:04
I'm like, okay, this isn't a bit
23:06
what's going on with the sunglasses Well,
23:09
if you were able to actually listen to the show and
23:11
that you're a little busy at the time I Know
23:18
Monday a week ago Monday. We started to
23:20
die by saying I tripped over
23:22
my luggage Airport got
23:24
this shiner So
23:27
that's that's that's the deal So no we I
23:29
said we talked about it two or three days
23:31
in a row at the top of
23:33
PTI I did not talk about it on countdown
23:36
But the makeup artists all of them
23:38
are just so extraordinary. So in LA
23:40
at the LA studio My
23:43
goodness, Maddie Marie She
23:46
she makes up I mean she does
23:48
movies. I Mean people do
23:50
movies where they like make beautiful actors
23:52
and actors that look like monsters in
23:55
my case It was just the opposite they can make a
23:57
monster look like me So
23:59
I you know but they're used to it. They were like
24:01
fighting it over. They're like, no, no, let me get it that
24:03
I, I'd love that. Cause they do this
24:05
kind of stuff all the time. They, they, you
24:08
know, have to cover things a lot more serious
24:10
than a black eye. So it was,
24:13
it was, it's been an interesting, an
24:16
interesting learning situation I could do without the
24:18
damn show. Tony, is he a sympathetic co-host
24:20
or did he like to rub it in?
24:25
No, he, you know, we're typical guys. If it's like,
24:27
if it would happen with you guys, you
24:29
would rub it in. You know you would rub it in. Oh yeah. Absolutely.
24:34
Yeah. So we were, before
24:36
we get into the current NBA and
24:38
the Cubs and all that stuff, today
24:40
is the 35 year anniversary. I
24:43
know. I know. Of the
24:45
shot. A couple of layers here. A,
24:48
tell us how important that is in
24:50
the history of the
24:52
Bulls, the dynasty and Michael. And where
24:54
were you that day? Started all of
24:57
it. Started all of it. Okay. Started
24:59
all of it. Now I was at the shot
25:02
against North, against Georgetown. I was, I was covering
25:04
that game, courtside in the Superdome, you
25:07
know, seven years earlier in 82. And,
25:11
but I did not, I was not
25:13
in Cleveland. I was some, I was
25:16
in another NBA playoff series. I don't
25:18
know. I must've been West because
25:20
I took a red eye to Chicago.
25:24
And I got to my parents' home and
25:28
I took a nap or something. I woke up
25:31
right there on the same,
25:33
in the bed in my house, on
25:35
the South side, on Wentworth. And
25:38
I watched it. I watched it.
25:41
I think was done. I
25:44
think we watched it together and, you know,
25:46
screaming, yelling and sued, of course. It's
25:49
the most important thing because you have to
25:51
have, something has to be first. Something
25:54
has to lead the way. Something has to
25:57
kickstart this whole thing and not just. From
26:00
Michael, but the franchise and everybody who was on the
26:02
floor or on the team with him at the time
26:04
and in 89 You
26:07
know, Scottie and Horace were there You
26:10
know Oakley was not
26:12
so that means Bill Cartwright was there and
26:16
if they don't you know, the Bulls had
26:18
blown game four Right, they was supposed
26:20
to win game four at home And
26:23
they blew game four at the stadium. I Remember
26:26
that game. I remember being so angry at that
26:29
me too and they blew that game and I
26:32
watched that game wherever I was in California or
26:34
God knows where and It
26:37
was just like my god. They gave us away. They're
26:39
not gonna get out of the first round again because
26:42
we've they have been swept by They
26:45
they beat they lost for one
26:47
to Milwaukee Michaels rookie year and
26:50
then they lost they got swept by Boston the next two
26:52
years So, you
26:55
know, I mean they hadn't done anything yet And
26:58
this was doing something this launched it because
27:00
they went into the next series They won
27:02
game one against Detroit if I remember correctly
27:05
They won game one against the Pistons and
27:07
they logged they lost four straight after that
27:10
But that that started all of
27:12
it and people don't realize how good Cleveland
27:14
was Ron Harper was on
27:16
the other side, right? Whitmark
27:19
price and Brad Doherty and Larry
27:21
Nance and elo and a team that
27:24
Magic Johnson, I think it pronounced the
27:27
team of the 90s and Jordan
27:30
just took that and killed that
27:32
changed quickly didn't it? Yes. Yeah it
27:35
did To the
27:37
the modern game Mike How
27:39
do you describe or what do you make of what
27:42
not just what Jalen Brunson is doing but
27:44
how he's doing? Oh Oh
27:47
Wow, we've been nice to have him
27:49
follow up After having
27:52
Derek Rose when they have Jalen Brunson
27:56
Chicago's own Another point:
27:58
Did I did I did not? You
28:00
guys get a nice. I got
28:02
crazy. I was looking at the
28:05
two thousand and eighteen draft and
28:07
you realize that the bulls passed
28:09
on say guilt is Alexander somebody
28:11
else and zealand brought into the
28:13
other person can remember. What
28:16
They pass on all of those
28:18
people to drive window. Carter Jr.
28:21
Is just like oh no no no
28:24
no and window Carter's part of an
28:26
ensemble. You obviously we didn't We traded
28:28
him to his boots. And he's
28:30
part of a nice ensemble. in
28:33
Orlando. it's growing and maybe he'll
28:35
grow with it now simply our
28:37
success. But man, You
28:39
you think about Zealand Bronson in
28:42
a bull's uniforms? Zealand Bronson was
28:44
in a bull's uniform with everybody
28:46
else. Remember he was a second
28:49
round pick. The wolves
28:51
good at everybody else they got. If
28:53
they have Zealand brunson with the players, there
28:55
may be the next. To
29:03
a draft picks in the treated for foods
29:05
with. Do believe do
29:07
believe the bulls with the help develop him
29:09
the way that he has developed. He
29:14
had the bulls develops a lot of people's. Army
29:17
go back to So he two goats
29:19
when the bulls develop Jimmy Butler the
29:21
bulls that the bulls development. System
29:24
is not a problem is only
29:26
guess the world I was developed
29:29
is Patrick Murray. And.
29:31
His visit her we was a know. The.
29:38
Bulls that develop the don't look
29:40
legit I yelled oh the bulls
29:42
as it is not look is
29:45
only the bulls have had one.
29:47
Two things go wrong. Catastrophic
29:50
injury. A
29:54
couple of. Bad decisions have
29:56
addressed. That's the deal.
30:00
Jaylen Brunson, look at Jaylen Brunson
30:02
not playing with any All-Stars. You think
30:04
Jaylen Brunson playing with Kobe White
30:06
wouldn't be dynamic? Of course it would.
30:09
You think Jaylen Brunson playing with Kobe White
30:11
and DeMar wouldn't be great? Of course
30:13
it would. The
30:16
problem is though, I mean like I know you're
30:18
putting together a lot like, remember
30:20
Pax is doing the drafting. If Pax
30:23
drafts Jaylen Brunson instead of Wendell
30:26
Carter or something like that, remember,
30:28
do they ever get DeMar DeRose
30:30
and this is a new regime
30:32
that gets DeMar? You know
30:34
what I mean? Fair point. We're putting
30:36
a lot together there. Yeah, but you
30:39
always get the ifs. Even
30:41
if he's playing, you know, yes. But
30:44
they did draft Kobe White. And
30:46
I take that back court in a heartbeat. Of
30:48
course, yeah. So you
30:50
know... I love Jaylen. I love
30:52
Jaylen. Jaylen and Brunson, by the way, for
30:54
people who don't know, we're listening, Jaylen
30:58
Brunson's just a great kid. I
31:01
think kid, he's, I don't know, what? He's
31:04
27. Is he 27? Yeah.
31:06
Jaylen Brunson is just, he's who
31:08
you want being the face of your franchise. He's
31:11
who you want. Someone
31:14
said, I'm trying to think, when they
31:16
drafted the kid, look this
31:18
up for me, Tyler, too, because someone tweeted me
31:21
about they had two first round picks in
31:23
one of those drafts.
31:26
Yes, they drafted Chandler Hutchinson.
31:28
Yeah, Hutchinson. And didn't jab Jaylen Brunson.
31:31
And like what, this is what has
31:33
bothered me about both of Jerry's teams,
31:36
where they don't stop doing work. They
31:38
don't do due diligence, Michael. And let me
31:41
explain you. Do you think that's just Sylvie?
31:43
Well, that's a hard criticism. Listen to this, okay?
31:45
Before you jump on me, listen, and I'll give
31:47
you my case. So Hutchinson
31:50
is a player who they
31:52
promised that they would draft
31:55
six weeks before
31:57
the draft happened. He
32:00
got it down. Okay, now look. When
32:04
the general manager's job opened
32:06
for the White Sox
32:08
job, Jerry Reinsdorf refused
32:11
to even interview anybody for
32:13
his general manager's job. He
32:16
just hired Chris Gatz. He
32:19
did not want to interview anybody
32:21
to even get information about how
32:23
his operation is run. He
32:26
didn't talk to anyone in Tampa, he
32:28
didn't talk to anyone in Houston, he
32:30
didn't talk to anybody with the Dodgers,
32:32
young and up and coming, refused to
32:34
do the due diligence. Same
32:36
thing that happened when he hired Fred Hoiberg.
32:39
Didn't interview anybody, just
32:42
interviewed Hoiberg, no interview
32:45
process. Same
32:47
thing that happened when he hired
32:49
Tim Floyd, got rid of Phil
32:51
Jackson, no interview process. Same
32:54
thing Michael, when he hired Jim Boylan.
32:56
Well I would just say that's bad
32:58
judgment. I don't know if there's no
33:01
content, there's no due diligence. But
33:04
there was due diligence before he
33:06
hired the team that's in place now.
33:08
Let me give you another example. Second
33:11
round pick to start a rebuild.
33:13
I don't know if they're going
33:16
to find anybody. You found Io
33:18
recently, but you're starting a rebuild
33:20
and instead of saying, let's
33:22
do some work and see if we
33:24
can find someone to pick 37, they
33:26
sold the pick for
33:29
cash. Why? Because they
33:31
didn't want to do the work. Jerry
33:34
Reinsdorf's teams don't do
33:36
the due diligence. Well
33:38
listen, if you don't do the due
33:41
diligence it's either one of two things. Because Jerry
33:43
Reinsdorf's teams used to do
33:45
the due diligence, they did it with Tony
33:49
Kukoch. Listen, it's a
33:51
long time ago Michael. Okay but Jerry, my
33:53
point is same guy. Jerry
33:55
Reinsdorf paid whatever
33:57
Jerry Krauss wanted. Chase,
34:00
Tony Kukoch, around the globe. And
34:02
they did it. And they did this
34:04
with the other people successfully for a while,
34:07
like Nocchione, who was part of a real
34:09
good playoff team there for a minute, like
34:11
they did it. They
34:14
did it. Now, is this bad judgment
34:16
or is this lazy?
34:18
I mean, I don't know which one it
34:20
is. Whatever the bottom line is, it ain't
34:23
good. Right. It's not good. But
34:26
man, you
34:30
can't, I mean,
34:32
you can't make these mistakes in
34:36
the modern draft. In a day in which you
34:38
got a salary cap, you got
34:40
all these things working to restrict
34:42
you, you have to
34:44
make great decisions and you got to get
34:46
a little lucky, as we've been talking about.
34:49
I've been underscoring that week after week. You
34:51
have to be able to do that. And
34:54
the Bulls have it. They
34:57
have it, but just, just with
34:59
the draft picks we're talking about, suppose
35:02
they take his G.A. He's
35:05
the first team, all
35:07
NBA player twice now. He's
35:09
going to be first team this year. He's
35:11
going to be either runner up or third in MVP.
35:16
How much do you attribute him? They had access
35:18
to all this. But, but when, when you talk
35:20
to, I know it's an inexact science,
35:22
regardless of sport, but how much of like his
35:24
development and being, if not the best player in
35:27
the league, one of the top two or three
35:29
players in league, how much of that is
35:32
when they had that pick at seven,
35:34
they knew who they were getting and
35:36
then they did an excellent job developing
35:38
him versus just being fortunate. We didn't
35:40
know how good he was. And he
35:42
just blossomed. Well,
35:44
I, that's a great question. A fair
35:46
question, which of course there's no hard
35:48
answer to look, the Clippers gave up on
35:50
SGA and he was six or seven.
35:53
When they gave, they traded him. Paul
35:57
George, and we're going to give you not only. SGA
36:00
with picks. I mean,
36:02
they screwed up. Pick that. Right?
36:05
I mean, SGA just tweeted out that picture
36:07
recently. So
36:09
wow. I mean, this
36:12
is so inexact. The
36:15
teams miss. They miss,
36:17
and they miss so dramatically, right?
36:20
I mean, they miss in ways that
36:23
you just can't afford to. You
36:26
can't afford to miss the way the
36:28
Bulls have recently. The
36:31
guy that built the nuggets and now is
36:33
in charge of the T-Wolves seems to get
36:35
most of it right. Wow. How
36:38
about that, by the way? How about you build both
36:40
those? And the team, look,
36:43
what it shows you is you don't need any
36:45
more of this big three stuff. You
36:47
don't. You don't need that. And here's what
36:49
else you don't need. You don't need
36:52
any more. We've got to finish first,
36:54
second, and third. No, you don't.
36:57
You don't have to do any of that. The
36:59
guys on the floor last night playing
37:01
what I think is the best defense
37:03
I have seen since Johnny Bach and
37:06
the Doberhins with Jordan
37:09
Pippen, Rodman, Harper,
37:11
or Jordan Pippen, Grant, whoever the
37:13
fourth person was. Like,
37:17
that's you don't have to. So there's notion
37:20
that you have to win. No, you don't have to win the lottery.
37:22
You don't. Yeah, you'd like to
37:24
get win by Yama. If you can, it's
37:26
sort of, you know, it's sort of you
37:29
cheat the process a little bit, but
37:31
you don't have to have that. So the
37:35
development portion of this is when you look at
37:37
IO and you say, OK, somebody did
37:39
a pretty good damn good job with IO, the first
37:41
or second pick in the second round. Second
37:44
round. Like, I think 35th or 37, somewhere
37:46
in there. Well, you wish
37:48
they had learned that lesson. Right back
37:50
in six years earlier. Of course. J.
37:53
Lynn Brunson, you know, another huge,
37:56
you know, Chicago playing the position
37:59
and it would change. of fortunes. We'd be talking
38:01
about the Bulls in a completely different light
38:03
there because Jalen Brunson is made. He's
38:06
so developed. Yes, but he's made
38:08
and how happy do you think
38:10
tips? What a fit, right? I
38:12
mean, what a fit for tips
38:14
to have Jalen Brunson and
38:16
I, you know, I look at them and
38:19
I just wonder, are they going to challenge
38:21
the Celtics? They're going to
38:23
win this series of the Pacers. The Pacers had
38:25
every chance to win last night. They got hosed.
38:28
They got hosed. Those,
38:30
those calls that went against them
38:32
are disgusting. Okay. And that's
38:35
why the NBA has to deal more than
38:37
any other sport with talk about conspiracies and
38:39
fixes. The NBA has to deal with that
38:41
stuff more than any other sport because
38:44
of stuff like last night. And I'm not
38:46
saying that, Zara, but the
38:48
guy's a great official. He was a great
38:51
crew. They made mistakes. It happens, but
38:53
it looks bad. The optics of that
38:55
stuff and favoring the Knicks and Madison
38:58
square garden. It looks awful. And
39:01
I feel bad for the Pacers because it
39:03
never seems to be a team like the
39:05
Indy or Sacramento, which gets the benefit of
39:07
the doubt. It always seems to be the
39:09
Knicks or the Lakers. And
39:11
so the Knicks are going to win this series anyway. And
39:15
so the question is, are we going to be
39:17
looking at a Chicago kid? Stevenson
39:21
high school. Are we going
39:23
to be looking at him in the conference finals?
39:26
Maybe take down the boss themselves. That that's
39:28
going to be something else
39:30
that both fans, nasty teeth over.
39:32
Yeah. Uh, so speaking of
39:34
like officiating and, and stuff like that,
39:37
will the NBA dare
39:40
to suspend Jamal Murray for game
39:42
three? I don't think
39:44
so. I don't think they're going to, I don't think they have the
39:47
stomach for it. I don't think the
39:49
league office, the commissioner's office has the stomach
39:51
for that. I think they'll,
39:53
I mean, I was so listening to Tim
39:55
Leggler and J Will this morning, they were
39:57
both loud and
40:00
demonstrative about the justification
40:02
of a suspension for suspension and I believe
40:04
I know those guys well I believe him
40:06
and then Richard Jefferson later in the afternoon
40:09
said wait a minute not
40:11
a suspension there's gonna be a huge
40:13
fine a reprimand blah blah blah blah
40:15
Richard's probably right but this could
40:18
have just talked about player safety I
40:20
mean if somebody takes
40:23
a spill and pulls a groin or a
40:25
hamstring or ruins an ankle for it is
40:28
out for weeks what is the league gonna do tomorrow
40:30
Murray is one of the good guys tomorrow Murray I've
40:32
gotten to be around him I know I'm not gonna
40:34
say I know him I've been around him a lot
40:37
I watched the whole series with him in Toronto because
40:39
he's a Toronto kid and I watched with him when
40:42
the Raptors won he came back to those games like
40:44
a local boy makes good
40:46
he watched the games I got to be
40:48
around him he's a wonderful dude but
40:51
he did something really
40:53
stupid and there are consequences for
40:55
that there ought to be but
40:58
I don't think the league what
41:00
do you guys think I don't think the league has the guts
41:02
for it I agree with you like waddle and I were debating
41:04
it I'm not saying that he
41:06
shouldn't be suspended but I don't believe the
41:08
NBA will go through with that because of
41:11
because of they don't have this stomach for
41:13
it I've been there's
41:15
that little Denver's getting trashed their
41:17
champion the league's champion has no
41:20
hope against this Minnesota team
41:22
none and they
41:24
know it they're watching the game and they don't want
41:26
to take this out of their hands and
41:29
didn't add that franchise and that player and
41:31
that coach they've never had run in this
41:33
is not like dealing with dream on green
41:36
you know this is dealing with somebody who
41:39
is on the right side of everything all
41:41
the time Jamal Murray so I just think
41:44
they'll I think they'll landscape
41:47
I think they're gonna suspend it for game three I
41:51
do why you know listen
41:53
I know what the hell do I know I don't know anything
41:55
no I think you open up
41:58
the door what's next I think a
42:00
bunch of guys on the sideline, you know, I'm gonna
42:02
throw a carton of eggs at somebody. Like, what am
42:04
I gonna get? I'm gonna egg it to you. I'm
42:06
gonna egg you. Tommy,
42:08
I think you're totally right. Like,
42:11
your position is my position. I agree
42:13
with you. I
42:15
just don't, I don't think they'll do
42:17
it. I don't think that
42:19
they have the stomach for it. They, they,
42:21
they basically, in a lot of ways, I
42:23
think screwed up not penalizing and bead. Have
42:26
some courage and actually do the right thing.
42:30
In the game, so in the game when
42:32
he grabbed the kid's foot. Yeah, I mean,
42:34
like. Yeah, yeah. And if they'd thrown Jamal
42:36
out of last night's game, they could say,
42:38
justifiably, hey, we threw him out. We took
42:40
care of it. You know, maybe
42:42
Jamal wanted to get thrown out. I can't believe that. People
42:44
say that, but if you know him a little bit,
42:46
you don't think that he wants that. But
42:49
it's a bad look for the NBA. It really is
42:52
to have this. And especially again, on
42:55
a night where you have
42:58
so many things going on. And
43:01
luckily, Jamal Murray's participation did
43:03
not help determine anything because
43:06
they're getting, I'll tell you what, I just never, that
43:09
might be the greatest defensive effort I've
43:11
ever seen. Unbelievable. In a game. Unbelievable.
43:13
It really, it just swarmed a team
43:17
with the best player in the world and said, yeah,
43:19
take your five to 13 and get up
43:21
out of here. And so
43:23
now I'm waiting to see what happens next. And by
43:25
the way, I don't know how
43:27
much you guys have gotten into it, but the
43:31
talk of people being reminded of Michael
43:33
Jordan when they see Anthony
43:36
Edwards is reaching a
43:38
crescendo. And
43:40
it's, it's legit
43:43
talk. Yeah. You guys know, anytime
43:46
somebody compares somebody to Jordan, I go crazy.
43:50
This is legit conversation
43:54
to compare this kid to Jordan,
43:56
not in terms of demeanor. terms
44:00
of his ability to instill
44:02
almost a fearful
44:05
loyalty amongst his teammates.
44:08
His teammates are afraid to not follow him. And
44:11
in that, in those ways, he
44:14
reminds a lot of people
44:16
of Michael Jordan. And let
44:19
me just say that positions
44:21
has not been criticized by the
44:23
goat. It's good stuff.
44:26
Michael, thank you. Thanks. Appreciate it. All
44:28
right, you guys. There's Michael. Michael.
44:30
Well, we've got some news today
44:32
all around different platforms. I've got
44:34
some stuff on the Cubs. They
44:36
get a player back. I do have
44:39
a basketball suspension.
44:42
Sort of that I got to tell you about.
44:44
And I do have news on the, um, the
44:47
roast. There's some news from the roast. So
44:49
Tom Brady roast. Yes. Okay. I don't know
44:51
if you know what it is. It's something
44:53
that we talked about yesterday, but new news
44:56
on it. So we'll address all that coming
44:58
up next. Live
45:01
from state street in the heart of Chicago.
45:03
You are listening to the new home of
45:05
the Chicago mayor. And
45:08
this is Ottawa. So
45:10
we have you
45:13
have a good karma brands radio
45:16
station. Don't
45:22
forget on Thursday, I'll be out.
45:24
It's slightly toasted in the loop.
45:27
The, uh, event will begin
45:29
at five 30 on Thursday. I'll
45:32
be there at about six 15. Slightly
45:34
toasted is located near
45:36
Ogilvy train station. If
45:39
you live in the city or you work in
45:41
the city or if you're around and
45:43
can get here 22 North
45:45
Clinton, uh, be there. We'll
45:48
be drinking Elijah, Craig, Kentucky,
45:50
straight bourbon whiskey, and I'll be
45:52
giving away two spots into
45:54
our great, uh, grip
45:56
it and sip it golf event that
45:59
sold out in. 20 minutes, there are no
46:01
more spots left. The only way
46:03
you can get a spot is by
46:05
coming to the event. On Thursday, it's
46:07
slightly toasted at 5.30. So
46:10
hope to see you at slightly toasted on
46:12
Thursday at 5.30, 22 North Clinton. All
46:17
right, well, a couple of things here. I
46:19
got three things for you, Waddle. Number one
46:21
is one thing that we already told you
46:23
about, and that's the Cubs news of the
46:25
day, and that is Cody Bellinger is back
46:27
tonight. He
46:29
has been activated. Keegan
46:32
Thompson is also back on the
46:34
active roster. Polencia,
46:36
the hard-throwing reliever,
46:39
is complaining about a shoulder injury.
46:42
I guess X-rays were negative, but there
46:44
could be a nerve situation, so who
46:46
knows where that shoulders are not good.
46:49
It's never good when you hear a reliever complain
46:51
about a shoulder situation.
46:54
And then who else is going out?
46:57
Who did they say? They as
46:59
hell. No, no, no, no. There was one
47:01
more person that they made inactive. Canario. Canario's
47:05
going down. And then Sayas going out
47:07
for a rehab assignment. So that's the
47:10
big news, and the biggest news there,
47:12
of course, is that Bellinger is back.
47:15
All right, you want what's behind door number
47:18
two or door number three? Door number two.
47:20
Door number two, did you see this? This
47:22
is from a little earlier today. I just
47:24
saw this. This is about a suspension. Melar,
47:27
I don't know if you have the sound.
47:29
I should have told you here during the
47:32
break. Do you remember the Caitlin Clark awkward
47:34
exchange from her press conference
47:36
when she was- Yes, with Greg Doyle. With Greg
47:38
Doyle. Did you see the news on that? Did
47:40
not. Let
47:42
me know when you have this, Melar. We
47:45
were just talking about Jamal Murray. Will he
47:47
be suspended? What is suspension
47:49
worthy? All right, play this, Melar.
47:51
For those who don't remember, this
47:54
was the awkward exchange between Caitlin
47:56
Clark when she had signed with
47:58
the WNBA team, Indiana. and
48:01
this is Greg Doyle, calmness, who works
48:03
for the Indianapolis Star Tribune, I believe
48:06
is the name of the newspaper, and
48:09
here's what happened. Hey, Kaitlyn.
48:12
Greg Doyle, Indy Star. Real
48:14
quick, let me do this. You
48:18
like that? I
48:20
like that you're here. I like that you're here. I
48:23
do that at my family after every game, so pretty
48:25
cool. Start doing it to me and we'll get
48:27
along just fine. So, very
48:30
weird, very creepy. He did the
48:32
heart sign at first that she
48:34
does, and
48:37
then he wrote
48:39
a calm, apologizing, but
48:41
it was a weird apology too. Suspension-worthy
48:44
in your mind? Sure,
48:47
yeah. What would you, what
48:49
kind of a suspension? We're
48:52
gonna, we're not gonna let you go
48:54
to any press conferences for 40 years.
48:57
It's right. You're saying like press conferences. You
49:00
need to stay away from her for baby.
49:03
Basically all of her games for her
49:05
entire career. Here's a restraining order. Right,
49:08
a Kaitlyn Clark restraining order. She,
49:11
I guess, they're reporting that
49:13
he has been suspended from
49:15
the newspaper for two weeks.
49:17
Yeah, okay. So, that's
49:19
a suspension. You know what? I
49:21
think creepy behavior is worthy of a
49:23
two-week suspension. I'm not gonna lie. Indy
49:26
start kind of dragging their feet on that. I'm
49:28
surprised it took them this long, you know?
49:32
Maybe they had to go through some HR process.
49:34
Or maybe this is finally when it came out.
49:36
I don't know like if this
49:38
is friendly where it's been. I think Bob
49:40
Kravitz was the one who works in Indy
49:43
who finally publicized it. You're right too, Miller.
49:45
Like to actually enact that suspension, if there's
49:47
a union, he may have to go through
49:50
all kinds of... Right, like they
49:52
may have tried to suspend him and he's
49:54
like, you can't suspend me for just being
49:56
creepy. I am super
49:58
creepy, man. Yes, I
50:01
may be creepy, but it's not suspension worthy.
50:03
I only say because that was April 17th
50:06
when that took place. Wow, that is three
50:08
weeks ago. And then
50:10
the other thing was, this is
50:12
the roast news.
50:15
If you watch the
50:18
roast of Tom Brady, we
50:20
joked about this earlier. Super,
50:24
super not politically correct as all
50:26
roasts are not. And
50:29
no complaints there. You know what you're getting
50:31
in a roast. But then
50:33
I joked about this, that Kim Kardashian was
50:36
booed. And now all of a
50:38
sudden everyone's like, oh no, no, no, stop booing
50:40
her, stop booing her. Kevin Hart's like, all
50:42
right, all right, settle down. If
50:46
you go now to the Netflix
50:49
recorded version, because this was a live
50:51
event. If you go to this, they
50:54
have edited out Kim Kardashian being
50:56
booed. The only version you
50:59
get on Netflix is her not getting
51:01
booed. Is there an explanation for why?
51:04
No, maybe because she's
51:06
so powerful. Was
51:09
it Greg Doyle's booing? No booing Kim
51:11
Kardashian, but here's a half dozen Aaron
51:13
Hernandez jokes. Yeah, right, right. Or
51:16
like, hey, I thought the next
51:18
time we would be all together for Bob
51:20
Kraft is during his funeral. Or
51:23
like, let's talk about Tom Brady's sexuality for
51:25
three hours. I
51:28
didn't know that she was untouchable. Yes,
51:30
but we cannot boo Kim Kardashian. They
51:32
scrubbed that from the roast. I wonder
51:34
if anything else has been scrubbed. Incredible,
51:37
isn't it? This
51:39
portion of Waddle and Sylvie brought to
51:41
you by Steinhoffles for Chicagoland locations, the
51:44
Memorial Day mattress sale going on now.
51:48
Thank you to Michael Wilbon,
51:50
also to Tyler and Miller. For Waddle,
51:52
I'm Sylvie at TSP in 1000. We've
51:55
got White Sox and Rays coming up next.
51:57
Have yourself a great Tuesday night. I
52:13
am really excited.
52:16
That was a big thrill. Hi, it's
52:18
Andre Dawson, including myself, Ed Belfort. Who's
52:21
getting wild tonight? That's
52:26
what I'm talking about, baby. No, hi
52:28
for me. I'm
52:30
getting more vibes than highs. And
52:40
thank you to all and to all a good
52:42
night. I just want to say thank you all,
52:45
and as always, f*** everybody else. I love you
52:47
all. Houston,
