00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:05.919
Three guys around the table.
00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:12.000
By three guys, we're talking about three friends a lawyer, an engineer, and a school superintendent.
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:16.640
And just like our personalities, our opinions vary, and we certainly don't always agree.
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:24.640
Whether we're discussing the best of or giving our tips and tricks of things in everyday life, you're sure to learn something if you stick around.
00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:29.519
Have you guys heard that the government just came out with a new uh a new rule or new mandate?
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:33.679
That you cannot get municipal marijuana if you're on laxatives.
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:34.479
No.
00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:36.880
They said you either have to poop or get off the pot.
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:38.479
Oh boy.
00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:41.119
Are there is are there crickets handy?
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:45.439
That's a big shout out to Big Red, our biggest listener now, thanks to Larry Perkins.
00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:45.679
Yeah.
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:50.079
I was told the other day that Larry Perkins has been passing our information around and getting us new listeners.
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:50.799
That's right.
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:51.840
That's a shout out to Big Red.
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:52.320
All right.
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:53.280
Hey, Big Red.
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:54.960
So uh that's that's a good one.
00:00:55.200 --> 00:01:05.519
That's like the law that they passed where they outlawed uh laughing out loud and speaking out loud, uh, but mainly laughing out loud in in Hawaii in public.
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:06.239
Is that right?
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:07.280
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:08.879
They only allow a low ha.
00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:09.840
Oh, that's good.
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:10.480
That's a good one.
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:12.079
Greg, you got one that you can tell to the group.
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:16.480
We're a minute and a half in, and we've already lost every possible author that we've had.
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:17.519
Probably true.
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:18.239
All right.
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:20.719
So shout out to Larry Perkins, no kidding.
00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:25.920
He's passing the word around about this podcast, and we're increasing our listener uh ship, so we appreciate that.
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:26.799
Well, there you go.
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:28.959
So what are we talking about today?
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:30.879
We've got several things on the agenda.
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.079
One week from today is the midterm elections.
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:34.879
Yep.
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:48.000
And we need to discuss is it gonna be a blue wave or is it gonna be a Well, I th I think that I think that is typical in midterm elections.
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.760
The the party that's in power typically loses.
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:52.400
Yeah.
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:59.599
Uh I will not be surprised if the Democrats take control of potentially the House and the Senate.
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:03.680
I think it's way more likely I think it's way more likely they get the House than the Senate.
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:04.319
There you go.
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:16.240
Um But I think um I think that what'll happen is I I expect the Democrats to take the House and then I expect um not much to happen in the next two years.
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.199
Or do you expect or do you expect the impeachment process to start immediately?
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:33.919
Well, I think both when I say when I say I think it's less likely things will happen in the next year, I mean for the benefit of the citizens.
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:43.520
Um there certainly could be an impeachment process, but it would fall on deaf ears if the Republicans still hold the Senate.
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:44.159
I agree with that.
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:50.240
Yeah, it what's gonna happen basically um if the yeah, it's gonna be a lot of gridlock.
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:53.759
And that's that's part of what democracy is all about.
00:02:53.840 --> 00:03:05.120
I I often, you know, as a former government teacher, AP government, and government and civics and all those things, I I used to ask our kids, I would say, what's what's the most efficient form of government in the world?
00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:08.639
I'll ask you guys to say 100%.
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:11.439
What's the most what what's the best form?
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:18.240
Well, then that that gets into a bit of a d debate, but most people will say democracy because of the voice of the people, all those things.
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:20.639
But it is the least efficient form of government.
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:21.280
That's true.
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:25.759
You have to understand that uh that's that's what checks and balances are in the system for.
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:38.159
It is to create inefficiency so that one person cannot hold too much power, so that we do not have authoritarianism, which is the most efficient form because there's one person making the decisions, and this is the way it's gonna be.
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:41.840
For the record, I like the jokes better than the uh lecture we just uh sat there.
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:44.639
It's not a lecture, it's just I should have taken notes.
00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:46.159
There'll be a quiz.
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:47.199
Oh, I guarantee it.
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:49.280
My quiz, get your paper out.
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.639
Hearing some of your opinions about the state of affairs.
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.120
Uh oh.
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:01.680
All I want to say is at the end of the day, everybody needs to get out and vote.
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:03.759
And if you don't know who to vote for, vote for me.
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:04.560
That's it.
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:09.599
My my

children, my children are all doing absentee ballots.
00:04:09.759 --> 00:04:10.240
Oh, good.
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:11.280
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:15.199
My son is probably not even sure the election's coming up.
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:15.520
Yeah.
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:16.160
Awkward.
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:24.160
And uh, you know, we have two school board uh elections that are two school board members that are up for election.
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:25.600
Um is one unopposed?
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:26.079
Uh no.
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:27.439
No, they're both great.
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:28.319
Yeah.
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:28.879
Yeah.
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.839
So we'll see what happens.
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:33.199
You know what I can't wait?
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:39.839
Is the amount of paper that I've recycled in the trash of these cards I get every single day.
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:41.839
Well, I gotta say the same people.
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:50.639
Well, uh here's here's the uh can I share a funny no uh so next we we have a yeah, we have a neighbor that's running for office, right?
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:59.519
And um, you know, he contracted with his company to send out these these mailers, and this past week I get a call from him.
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:01.519
He's like, Can you check your mail yet?
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:02.879
I was like, No, I'm at work.
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:04.319
Well, check it as soon as I get home.
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:05.600
He was like, Well, just check it.
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:06.480
And I was okay.
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:07.439
So I checked it.
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:12.879
I had three mailers, all three different ones for him in the mail that day.
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:21.199
Two yesterday from him, and so I said, So I got all three of them, and he was like, They're supposed to be mailed out this day, this day, this day.
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:22.800
The company just sent them all out once.
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:23.600
I'm living.
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:28.720
You wouldn't believe how much I spent uh I know I got at least two on the same day for him.
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:29.839
Can I tell you what's funny about him?
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:31.279
What's he running for?
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:34.399
City commissioner, magistrate or magistrate.
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:35.120
He's magistrate.
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:35.680
Guess what?
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:38.399
I'm not in his district, and I got all of his mailers.
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:39.199
Oh, is that right?
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:39.839
That's correct.
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:40.480
That's funny.
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:41.759
He may have overpaid a little bit.
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:44.639
Well, did you notice the old man across the street's got a sign in his yard now?
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:45.279
He does.
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:45.680
I did see.
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:47.759
He's probably charging per square inch of this.
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:48.639
Yeah, that's true.
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:50.959
Well, um, good luck to all the candidates.
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:56.720
Um, obviously, in in the position I'm in, I'm not able to get political about things.
00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:59.360
I have to stay completely out of it.
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:01.199
But good luck to everyone who's running.
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:08.160
And uh so but before we move on from do you what do you think's gonna happen just as general House Senate?
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:10.160
I think House will will flip.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:11.680
I don't think the Senate will.
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:16.720
I think it's gonna be I think it'll be a 50-50 again with the vice president holding the tie-breaking boat.
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:17.279
I agree.
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:20.639
Uh, just looking at the races, that's kind of what I think is gonna happen.
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:22.639
But uh, you know, there have been surprises.
00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:25.360
So I what's happening in the great state of OH?
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.120
Well, so that's gonna be one of the interesting things.
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:30.319
Is Ramaswane gonna win or is he gonna lose?
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:32.160
The the governor's race there.
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:34.399
I I don't think Ramaswamy's winning at all.
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:36.079
I think Amy Acton will win that.
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:41.040
If they hadn't done the whole commercial thing with the butler and all the things, what do you think about that?
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:42.160
I think it's awful.
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:43.279
Uh I I really do.
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.920
I think that's just you know, it's unnecessary.
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:47.519
Just talk about the issues.
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:54.000
What why you have to attack someone's you know, personally who and then when everything comes out, everybody does that.
00:06:54.319 --> 00:07:09.279
Well, you you you attack them personally about what they what they believe in, but that's not about not about their mom that's been estranged from them for I think this is, in my opinion, yeah, I think this is when you find out where people really are in the in the polls.
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:12.639
If you're doing something like that, you're Christmas.
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:14.319
Yeah, but think about it.
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:16.639
You're doing whatever you think you've got to do to win.
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:21.279
I mean, it's it's uh we see it in races around here too, not just Ohio.
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.560
I mean, there's some congressional races around here.
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:28.399
The Dembo, the Alvarado race is interesting to me.
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:28.720
Right.
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:32.560
I think Alvarado wins, but can I do it one time?
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:34.800
I think Dembo's gonna win.
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:36.000
I think Alvarado's gonna win.
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:36.879
Can I do it one time, though?
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:37.120
Yeah.
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:38.399
I'm Zach Dembo.
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:39.120
Here's the deal.
00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:40.720
I think Alvarado's gonna win as well.
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:47.920
But here's the thing when it gets to crunch time, I don't care what race it is, it happened with Donald Trump, it happened with uh Obama, it happened to everybody.
00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:51.759
When it gets down to crunch time, everybody resorts to throwing mud.
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:52.560
That's the way it is.
00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:53.600
They sling mud at everybody.
00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:53.920
I don't care.
00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:55.360
If you're behind, you do.
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:57.199
Yeah, I think they all do it now because it's cool.
00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:58.240
I won't get ridiculous.
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:04.399
I know he's not the most popular person in the world, but there's something that Rand Paul said that I completely agree with.
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:07.680
And it was when Donald Trump was running for president.
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:10.079
Don't throw your grass club into my yard.
00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:11.120
Don't punch down.
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:12.240
I agree with that.
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:12.560
Yeah.
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:13.680
Why punch down?
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:14.160
Right.
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:15.920
I mean, there's no there's no sense in it.
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:16.480
That's true.
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:18.160
That's something I agree with a hundred percent.
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:20.480
But I think that's an ethical thing, and I'm not too sure.
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:28.000
I think I I read an article today that makes me think that Dembo has a legitimate chance to win that race.
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:29.519
Oh, I think it's gonna be close.
00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:30.639
Um, I don't think he win.
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:36.159
I thought Alvarado was winning easily, and then I read that, and then I'm like, mm-hmm.
00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:41.840
I think for the I think for the um the conservatives in the Commonwealth.
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:54.639
The commercial was Zach Dimbo with the cardboard cut out, and they're trying to put Alvarado back with um with Matt Bevin, where he had uh um Lord Governor Andy Bashir on there.
00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:58.159
That was the one that kind of broke the straw, the brought the straw that broke the camel's back.
00:08:58.399 --> 00:08:59.840
You know, we thought we'd get rid of him, yeah.
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:01.279
So did I.
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:01.519
Right.
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:02.080
Yeah, I've seen it.
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:06.720
I think that was kind of I I despise watching TV at this time of year.
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:07.440
Yeah, I agree.
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:18.240
Yeah, I always can't wait till Tuesday night about 12.01 and uh so we all agree that we think the Democrats
are taking the house, but not the Senate.
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:19.039
I think so.
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:22.799
Um I I you know, could we could all be shocked.
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:23.840
Who knows what's gonna happen?
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:24.320
There's a lot of things.
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:33.360
Do we think do we think that I assume we all think that Andy Barr is gonna be hands down by a lot?
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:35.840
I I don't think that'll be within single digits.
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:37.519
I think I agree, I think it's double digits.
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:44.720
So did you guys hear about the high school kid that always does the um does the debates amongst all the all the candidates?
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:52.240
And this time he was he was kind of on radio talking a big deal about how uh Andy um declined.
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.399
But um my goodness, what's his name?
00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:57.919
He got run against Andy Barr.
00:09:58.639 --> 00:09:59.279
Uh Booker.
00:09:59.519 --> 00:09:59.840
Booker.
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.480
Booker is gonna be there, but Andy Barr is not Charles Booker.
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:04.720
So you know that's gonna be it's not is it Charles Booker?
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:06.399
Corey Booker's from New Jersey.
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:08.000
That's right over, but Charles Booker.
00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:13.600
But that's gonna be the big thing is you know, Charles Booker's gonna beat on Andy Barr, but but um yeah, I don't think you know.
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.639
But the Democrats cannot get a uh a good candidate.
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:22.639
Uh I mean if you really wanted to flip that seat, are you going to I mean that there are two choices?
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:24.399
Andy Bashir could flip that seat.
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:24.720
Yeah.
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:27.279
Uh you had Amy McGrath and Charles Booker.
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:28.879
Seriously, they are unelectable.
00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:31.200
Either one of those are weeping.
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:35.039
Are you talking about from the hood to the holler and the uh the pilot?
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:36.799
Did she fly airplanes?
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:38.399
47 of them, I believe.
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:40.080
Was it 47 missions?
00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:42.000
Uh but I can't remember what that was.
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:46.399
I don't think either one of those can could be either of the Republican candidates.
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:47.039
Yeah, agreed.
00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:54.320
And we know what our governor's, you know, got in his, you know, but I think it might have been a strategic mistake.
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:59.600
Um, but you know, uh well I I do think Andy Bashir would have won that race.
00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:00.080
I do.
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:00.559
Yeah.
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:03.679
I I I don't think it would have been particularly close.
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:07.120
I think he screwed up by not taking that
opportunity instead.
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:09.519
He is uh his sights we all suspect.
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:11.600
He's running for he's running for president.
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:13.039
It's not an aun, but he's running.
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.720
I mean, I I th I don't think that I don't think that's breaking news here.
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:17.840
He's running.
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:18.879
I think.
00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:19.759
Yeah.
00:11:19.919 --> 00:11:25.919
So um so but we'll have an off-the-air discussion about how quick how quickly, yeah.
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:29.279
One more thing about Kentucky politics, and we'll move on.
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:37.679
How quickly after the November election, yep, after Jamie Comer retains his seat, does he does he announce that he's running for governor?
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:43.039
Oh yeah, I I mean, does he say it in his acceptance speech on Tuesday night?
00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:44.960
I don't I don't think so.
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.159
I think you'll have a formal announcement, but I expect it in the next couple weeks.
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:49.200
Yeah, 100%.
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:55.679
And uh it'll be uh I I think it'll be uh, you know, he'll he'll do a nice ceremony or whatever.
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:57.279
Yep, but it'll be fast.
00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:03.279
Um I'll I will tell you this it's the first political sign that I will have ever posted in my yard.
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:04.399
There you go.
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:07.679
I have um I have political signs.
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:09.840
I just don't ever put them in my yard.
00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:13.759
I have a Borel pest control sign that's been in my yard.
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:16.879
So somebody got termites done.
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:19.360
I voted for termites.
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:29.519
I know I will people I know coming from the wealth that you come from, you don't understand what the common people have to do to get rid of you of pestis, you know, pests in our in our homes and everything.
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:30.159
So right.
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:32.720
He's got staff for that.
00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:33.120
Yeah.
00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:35.039
Uh there's a fly in the job.
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:38.960
Bring out the flashwater.
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:46.080
So anyway, uh, yeah, we're all looking forward to this campaign season being over with.
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:50.960
And um, yeah, I uh so let's talk about fun things now.
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:58.559
And by fun things, I mean that the possibility of college football uh going to a 2014 time out, time out, time out.
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:00.559
Before we jump into what you guys want to talk about.
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:01.279
Yes.
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:03.679
Tonight.
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:04.639
Pro wrestling.
00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:11.120
Will Milwaukee become the first team to ever sweep the pennant and then the World Series?
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:13.440
Will they will they sweep it and will they win it tonight?
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:17.200
They're not going to be the first team to do that because the Cincinnati Reds did it in 1976.
00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:20.320
They swept the pennant race and I guess they did, didn't they?
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:20.559
Yes.
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:21.120
Never mind.
00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:25.039
They never they didn't the other team from the NL.
00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:26.879
I I hate Milwaukee.
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:29.440
So I but I don't sweep it.
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:30.720
I don't think they win tonight.
00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:31.919
I'm pulling for Tampa.
00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:35.519
Uh I think Tampa wins tonight, but I think it's over at the next game.
00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:38.159
That's one of the worst fields I've ever been to, by the way, is in Tampa.
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:43.279
But yeah, it it it makes me unhappy that Milwaukee is having the success that they're at.
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:45.200
That was a beatdown last night.
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:45.840
Yeah.
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:47.679
I mean, just unreal.
00:13:47.840 --> 00:13:48.240
Yep.
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:50.159
So college football, 2014.
00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:52.399
Let's move on to college football.
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:54.559
When the Cugs, who cares?
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:57.840
Well, look, you guys are done with baseball in April, May.
00:13:58.159 --> 00:13:59.440
Give us the man.
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:00.000
Really?
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:01.600
Give us the all-star break.
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:04.399
Maybe you all were way done before the all-star break.
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:08.399
Uh at least my team made the playoffs.
00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:08.720
Yeah.
00:14:08.879 --> 00:14:09.519
Playoffs.
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:14.000
Uh they lost two games that were gone, but other than that, they were in it.
00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:18.799
Uh, college football has announced that they're going to go to a 2014 playoff.
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:19.600
Yes.
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.200
Terrible idea.
00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:22.960
Horrific idea.
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:24.720
Chris.
00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:26.320
My problem is.
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:37.120
From a Kentucky fan's point of view, I like the opportunity to get more teams in it, but the problem is you're going to put more teams in it that have no chance of winning.
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:38.559
Well, that's the issue.
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:41.919
In the infamous words, as I sent this to you.
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:42.480
Yep.
00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:46.480
One of my favorite shows when my kids were little were the incredibles.
00:14:47.120 --> 00:14:54.000
And the bad guy in the incredibles says, if everybody has superpowers and they're special, then nobody's special.
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:54.480
Yep.
00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:56.320
That's what you're doing in college football.
00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:00.720
If you put the top 25 in a playoff, then who cares?
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:01.519
Okay, look.
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:04.799
Okay, but it makes the regular season meaningless.
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.679
You could you can lose four or five games and still make it.
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:07.919
Yeah.
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:08.879
That's stupid.
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:11.600
But here's here's my counter to that.
00:15:12.080 --> 00:15:13.840
Why do we care about the top 25 then?
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:15.840
Why do they go to why don't they just say the top 10?
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:19.440
Or just do the top 24th now, and then the top 24 is who's in the playoffs.
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:23.120
Well, but but the issue is what the end of the thing is.
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:24.960
What makes college football great?
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:27.440
Competitive football games, right?
00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:29.440
You're you're going to lose that.
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:36.240
You will lose that because every the the major conferences have to have nine conference games now.
00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:39.759
So the other three games that they play will be against the worst teams.
00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:45.360
There will be no Ohio State, Texas, there will be no Notre Dame, Miami.
00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:47.200
There will be no whatever.
00:15:47.440 --> 00:16:00.399
Why don't you because if you're in the S if you're in the SEC and you you may lose three games, you're going to ensure in the non-SEC games you're not going to lose so that you're in the top 25 to make so playoffs.
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:02.799
So I go back to this again, counter on this.
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:08.320
In the NCAA tournament, the field of 64, which is what now 66?
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:09.120
68.
00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:09.840
68.
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:11.519
The playing games are stupid.
00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:19.919
But anyhow, what percentage of the total division one uh teams are is the 68 part of?
00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:22.080
There's like 360 something, I think.
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:24.399
Yeah, but there's hold on, hold on.
00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:25.200
So one sixth.
00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:29.120
But in football, you were gonna do right now, you're doing how many teams?
00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:30.159
It doesn't matter.
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:31.919
It's it's apples and dishwashers.
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:38.559
It's not it's not apples and oranges because in the NCAA tournament in basketball, you've got two games in two days.
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:44.879
So you got, you know, you you're gonna get rid of half the field in the span of four days from Thursday to Sunday.
00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:45.279
Right.
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:49.519
In in college football, you can't do that because you need to give time to rest.
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:57.679
So you're now extending the season out to here just to give some extra teams a chance at knocking off a team that may have lost four games.
00:16:57.840 --> 00:16:59.519
Uh, it just doesn't make any sense.
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:05.200
The only the other the other thing that really bothers me about it is it completely destroys bowl games.
00:17:05.279 --> 00:17:06.319
They're meaningless.
00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:07.920
But bowl games are meaningless anyway.
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:09.200
They're useless anyway.
00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:09.440
Yeah.
00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:14.160
The Duke's Mayo Bowl or the Music City Bowl, they're listening the Pop Tart Bowl's pretty cool.
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:18.559
Okay, but back when you had the peach bowl, the cotton bowl, the sugar bowl, the fiesta bowl, whatever, that was different.
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:20.400
Now there's you could be in the toilet bowl.
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:21.279
I mean, that's ridiculous.
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:23.839
Yeah, I uh you know, team, the bowls have gotten stupid.
00:17:23.920 --> 00:17:25.039
It's just a corporate thing.
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:31.920
The thing I have to go back to, though, Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame, might as well put those five in every year.
00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:33.759
There are five, every every year they're in.
00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:34.960
It's just the way it is.
00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:40.079
Moving forward, uh, I mean, and as a fan, there's no chance.
00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:41.680
There's no chance they won't be in it.
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:41.920
No.
00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:46.640
But out of those five, how many have they won in the past five years?
00:17:47.839 --> 00:17:48.799
All of them.
00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:53.279
Georgia, Alabama, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame have won in the past five years.
00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:53.759
Indiana.
00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:54.559
I didn't say Indiana.
00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:57.279
I didn't say the past two years.
00:17:57.920 --> 00:17:58.480
I know you didn't.
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:01.759
I thought you were trying to say who had won the championships the last three.
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:04.000
Ohio State, Michigan, and Indiana won the last three.
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:05.279
But I didn't put Indiana in there.
00:18:05.359 --> 00:18:06.960
Indiana was one that would have been in the playoffs.
00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:08.960
You did put Michigan, you did put Ohio State.
00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:09.200
Right.
00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:09.920
So that's two.
00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:16.960
So you're gonna have Michigan, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, Notre Dame every year.
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:18.400
They're just shoe-ins every year.
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:20.000
So now you're down to 19 teams.
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:20.559
Yeah.
00:18:20.880 --> 00:18:22.720
Because they're the perennial powerhouses.
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:23.279
That's it.
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:26.480
So what are you adding by going to 24 teams?
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:29.039
You're adding, you're putting 19 other teams in.
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:30.640
As compared to seven.
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:31.279
Right.
00:18:31.599 --> 00:18:33.920
Now, do I believe you put in Fresno State?
00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:36.160
That's the problem.
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:39.599
But do you put in a like in just say Kentucky, for instance?
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:41.759
Say Kentucky goes 9-3 this year.
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:43.359
They may not make the playoffs.
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:45.359
I don't suspect they will at 9-3.
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:46.799
But look who they would beat to get there.
00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:48.799
Could they have upset somebody in the in the playoffs?
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:49.119
Yes.
00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:50.799
Could they go in a role like Indiana did?
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:51.440
Yes.
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:53.200
But they wouldn't get into it.
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:53.839
That's the problem.
00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:56.960
Hold on, hold on, because you put the Fresno State or somebody else.
00:18:57.279 --> 00:19:06.319
But under that theory, under that theory and that line of reasoning, then you've got to put everybody in it because any team could get on a roll and win three or four games.
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:12.000
No matter how many teams it is, if it's 12 or 24 or 7 or 4, whatever it is, you're always good.
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:14.160
Once it goes to 24, you have to go back to the city.
00:19:14.720 --> 00:19:16.000
You better cut that one out.
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:23.440
Okay, we had to have some creative editing there because Chris decided it was time to be cussed.
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:24.960
It was not even this time.
00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:27.440
Don't be cussing on this interview.
00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:34.799
So what I'm trying to say is, I'm gonna we talked about this a little while.
00:19:35.039 --> 00:19:36.559
Anyway, uh the point I was making.
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.559
So if the rank preseason rankings are nonsense, we all know that.
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:41.599
We've talked about that.
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:43.039
They skew things too much.
00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:48.240
But the thing is, if you're gonna go 24 teams, then take the top 24 teams at the last game of the year.
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:49.119
That's it, period.
00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:51.279
But how are you gonna rank those 24 teams?
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:54.000
Shrink the schedule has to figure into it, you're gonna do a lot of things.
00:19:54.079 --> 00:20:02.319
So you're gonna go back to the old BCS days where computer ranking that did like a did like a uh formula for the different companies.
00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:06.559
Correct, because the only people that hurt them was Notre Dame because they played nobody because they're not in the conference.
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:07.680
They don't have to be.
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:10.559
And and this ensures they don't have to be.
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:11.200
I agree.
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:14.720
Because as you say they will be in automatically.
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:14.880
Yeah.
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:15.680
So that's the thing, though.
00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:28.240
If you do a computer ranking based upon sprength, strength of schedule and teams played and their rankings and all this, like you said, take a blind, and I hate to be the homer, but take a blind uh look at take Ohio State out of it.
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:30.160
Take it Georgia and Kentucky.
00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:31.599
Yeah, whose ranking looks better?
00:20:31.839 --> 00:20:32.400
Kentucky's.
00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:33.359
They've played better teams.
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:36.880
But because the name is Kentucky and they've had a historical losing streak.
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:39.119
Well, I don't think it's really the name.
00:20:39.359 --> 00:20:42.160
I think it's because they started out preseason so low.
00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:42.559
Correct.
00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:47.359
I would also say what was the common opponent between those two particular teams was Alabama.
00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:47.920
Alabama.
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.119
Georgia beat Alabama and could and Alabama beat Kentucky.
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:51.440
Right.
00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:54.880
But I think you have to figure more into it than just win or losses.
00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:55.119
Yeah.
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:57.279
And but preseason rankings are ridiculous.
00:20:57.440 --> 00:20:59.119
Who does the preseason rankings?
00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:02.319
55 guys sitting around going, I think they're the good team this year.
00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:04.079
Well, yeah, but had that work before we're good.
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:05.279
Right.
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:07.359
Text the TM.
00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:07.920
Right.
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:17.039
Here's but but ultimately the point I was trying to make earlier was even when you go to 24 teams, we're going to have these same arguments about, well, what about the 25th?
00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:17.839
The 25th.
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:18.720
What about the 20th?
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.079
They should I mean it happens in there.
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:24.000
It happens in basketball all the time.
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:27.519
It's always this team got screwed because they got left out of 68 teams.
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:32.720
The only reason that college football is going to 24 isn't to give these teams a chance.
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:33.759
It's pay me my money.
00:21:34.400 --> 00:21:35.119
It's to make money.
00:21:35.680 --> 00:21:36.559
That's all it is.
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:37.200
Yeah.
00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:48.720
So, you know, we're uh, you know, we can we can uh you know think that it's about oh hey, you know, anyone's gonna have a uh a chance to make it, and if Kentucky gets in, it gets on a roll.
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:49.920
That's not why they're doing that.
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:54.000
But don't you don't you see something sad about losing those conference
championships?
00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:56.400
Yes, that's one of my points behind it.
00:21:56.640 --> 00:21:57.039
Sure.
00:21:57.200 --> 00:21:59.759
Yes, I I think at the at at marginalized.
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:05.680
Conference championships, it marginalizes bowl games and completely makes the regular seasons useless.
00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:06.400
Useless.
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:07.039
Useless.
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:13.440
It's oh, and and it's gonna we get so excited for the regular season because the games actually matter right now.
00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:19.359
Yeah, uh, I watched that BYU game where I I had no interest whatsoever in watching that game.
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:22.799
I mean, no like betting interest or anything, yeah, no allegiance.
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:25.839
I watched that game on the edge of my seat this past weekend.
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:31.680
But if it wasn't for money, what keeps a team from going to say the I don't know, Metro conference for a throwback for lack of a better term?
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:41.440
That's that it's only about the money because in that in the 2014 scenario, Kentucky would be better off to go to the Notre Dame route instead of having to play nine SEC games.
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:49.200
And you know, they'd be better off playing nine cupcakes, have 11 in one season until you get to what happened to Notre Dame last year.
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:49.759
Exactly.
00:22:49.839 --> 00:22:50.160
Yep.
00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:52.960
And that will never happen in a 2014 playoff.
00:22:53.759 --> 00:22:56.720
Which group is lobbying to make this happen more than any other?
00:22:56.799 --> 00:22:57.839
It's the cupcakes.
00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:00.720
It's the call they're gonna get paid.
00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:03.759
They're gonna get huge paychecks out of this because they're gonna make it.
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:07.119
It's over a million dollars for every team that Ohio State plays on the night.
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.359
Western Kentucky University is gonna get rich by going and playing all these teams, right?
00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:12.079
Exactly.
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:15.519
When Kent State came to Ohio State, it was like$1.4 million.
00:23:16.079 --> 00:23:20.880
Do you know how many other sports that Kent State fields that that's gonna fund for the rest of the year?
00:23:21.039 --> 00:23:22.880
I mean, they they're super excited about it.
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:24.160
But I'm okay with that.
00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:26.799
I'm okay with the the funding going elsewhere.
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:27.599
I'm fine with that.
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:34.160
I just think it's gonna make the product, and we all agree in here that outside of hockey, it's the best sport.
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:37.680
And uh I agree, but don't you think we need to have I mean, how how close are we to move?
00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:39.279
I've now been to an NHL hockey.
00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:42.000
Yeah, but it was awesome.
00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:45.119
How close do you think we're getting to four power conferences and that's it?
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:46.480
Those are the only ones that can make the playoffs.
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.000
Well, there should only be two.
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:50.559
Yeah, I agree with that, but they're throwing around four.
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:52.000
But how would that change things?
00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:53.359
And two is all that matters.
00:23:53.519 --> 00:23:57.200
And to jump in now that you've seen an NHL game and seen the speed.
00:23:57.759 --> 00:23:58.960
Did we just change channels here?
00:23:59.119 --> 00:24:00.400
I was still talking about college football.
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:01.119
You want to talk about?
00:24:01.279 --> 00:24:03.359
Yeah, so talk to us.
00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:06.160
How how amazing are those athletes, right?
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:08.400
Um the atmosphere's awesome.
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:11.279
The atmosphere's great, it's a it's a party atmosphere.
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:11.680
Yep.
00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:12.079
Yep.
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:20.160
Um, the ability to those guys to skate and handle the puck the way that they can is unbelievable.
00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:23.599
You know, Sidney Crosby, that dude can handle a puck.
00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:30.000
He's not fast anymore compared to some of the other kid people, but he can put a puck anywhere he wants it to be.
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:30.640
How's that dude?
00:24:31.119 --> 00:24:31.839
39, I think.
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:32.880
38, 39.
00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:36.960
You know what impressed me the most about those is your referees.
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:44.000
Yeah, those kids get out of the way and they jump all the time and they they jump up on the glass to jump.
00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:46.000
I mean, those guys you think are ex hockey players.
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:46.559
A lot of them.
00:24:46.640 --> 00:24:47.440
Because they gotta be able to skate.
00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:48.400
It's unbelievable.
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:50.000
A lot of them are, yeah.
00:24:50.160 --> 00:24:52.640
Um, so anyway, it was an awesome experience.
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:53.119
Awesome.
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:55.599
So back to four major power conferences in football.
00:24:55.680 --> 00:24:56.720
How close are we to that now?
00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:57.920
And only those four conferences.
00:24:59.519 --> 00:25:02.160
We're closer now than we were five years ago.
00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:02.480
Right.
00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:02.960
Yeah.
00:25:03.119 --> 00:25:14.400
I mean, the the the expansion of the Big Ten and the SEC is is it's hurt all the other conferences.
00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:15.759
How many teams are in the Big Ten?
00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:16.720
18.
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:19.119
And there's 16 in the SEC.
00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:21.680
But the SEC doesn't call it the SEC 15.
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:22.880
I mean, it's right.
00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:26.559
But it's uh it's hurt just the name.
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:30.160
It's it's hurt the other any other conferences.
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:32.240
So I go back to this.
00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:36.000
If you go with the four major conferences, it's the reason why conferences don't matter.
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:37.519
Everybody needs to be in a conference.
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:41.519
How far are we before we get to what are what are the four that you keep referring to?
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:42.160
I want to hear them.
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:42.880
Yes, besides.
00:25:43.359 --> 00:25:46.559
Oh, well, no, no, they changed the names like Atlantic, and the city.
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:47.359
No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:52.559
They changed the names like the Pac 58 or whatever they are over there now, and the mid mid-America.
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:54.720
I mean, they were had four different names for them.
00:25:54.960 --> 00:26:00.000
Yeah, so I mean, I think we're talking about ACC and Big Big 12, right?
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:03.039
I don't think ACC was one of the names I saw in the Redove.
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:03.920
I haven't seen it.
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:09.920
Because ACC, let's think about it, the Atlantic Coast Conference, you got teams from California and Washington and all that crap over there.
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:13.920
You do, but you also got Miami and Virginia Tech and North Carolina and North Carolina.
00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:16.000
Geographically speaking, they're insane.
00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:21.599
But but again, again, four teams, four programs or four conferences.
00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:30.240
How long before we have a sublevel, not FBS to FCS, but how long before we have a sublevel like you have the NCAA tournament and then the NIT?
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.680
How long before you have one of those spinoff, too, for more additional funding?
00:26:36.640 --> 00:26:37.599
It's just more football.
00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:38.400
I mean, think about it.
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:41.519
If you can't make a difference of football, can they play in a year though?
00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:43.200
Yeah, that's just it.
00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:50.720
I mean it'd be no different if you did a spin off and you made the the if you had a second tournament for other teams, it would be the equivalent.
00:26:50.880 --> 00:26:52.000
I I get what we're saying.
00:26:52.480 --> 00:27:00.480
I think I think you're more likely to have the SEC and the Big Ten do something together than you are having just four conferences.
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:06.960
I think in the next five years it will not stun me if the NZA no longer exists.
00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:14.480
It wouldn't that wouldn't stun me and the N and the Big Ten and the SEC create something.
00:27:14.720 --> 00:27:17.039
I would hope that would happen, but I don't see that happening.
00:27:17.359 --> 00:27:18.799
I don't of course they're worthless anyway.
00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:21.039
You've seen with all these penalties and stuff, they're worthless.
00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:24.000
But would Notre Dame join a conference then?
00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:24.640
Why?
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:25.039
Why?
00:27:25.119 --> 00:27:25.519
What's the point?
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:27.119
Seriously.
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:27.599
I know.
00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:28.240
Seriously.
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:30.480
What's the benefit of Notre Dame joining a conference?
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:32.880
CBS has their own program with them, their own funding.
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:33.359
I get it.
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:33.759
I understand.
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:34.960
Zero benefit.
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:35.440
I know.
00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:37.839
But nobody should play them if you're on the conference, that's my opinion.
00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:39.279
And Penn State shouldn't have a team.
00:27:39.359 --> 00:27:40.079
That's it.
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:41.920
Who else shouldn't have teams?
00:27:42.160 --> 00:27:42.640
SMU?
00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:43.119
That's it.
00:27:43.200 --> 00:27:44.240
No, SMU's fine now.
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:45.599
They went through the death penalty and they came back.
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:45.920
It's good.
00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.240
But so it wasn't the death penalty then.
00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:49.039
Oh, it was.
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:50.400
How long were they dead for?
00:27:50.960 --> 00:27:52.079
But they're not 20 years.
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:53.759
So they're the equivalent of Jesus.
00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:54.720
But what'd it take them?
00:27:55.200 --> 00:27:58.720
Well, they were a Phoenix from the flames, but would it take them 30 years to get back?
00:27:58.880 --> 00:27:59.920
I mean, it was bad.
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:03.200
Hey, that uh uh good story.
00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:05.359
What about Michigan changing quarterbacks?
00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:06.319
Uh you got to be able to get it.
00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:08.960
You're paying somebody a lot of money to sit on the bench.
00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:11.839
I thought that guy was one of the best, the top of the top of the top.
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:14.720
10 million dollars to sit on the oh yeah.
00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:16.000
They paid him 10 million.
00:28:16.079 --> 00:28:16.400
Yeah.
00:28:16.559 --> 00:28:17.680
And he's oh my.
00:28:17.839 --> 00:28:18.319
Oh yeah.
00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:19.279
Oh my.
00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:20.079
Yeah.
00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:23.680
You just hate to see it, darn it.
00:28:24.240 --> 00:28:26.559
So how's your freshman quarterback gonna work out?
00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:28.960
Well, that's gonna be the the the question, isn't it?
00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:30.880
Well, look, USC's terrible.
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:32.000
Yep, they are.
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:34.880
Um how they're still ranked, I don't have any idea.
00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:40.640
But they're they're back home, and you you know,
the the the trip, who knows?
00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:48.079
I I think Ryan Day and and more importantly, his assistant coaches, uh, you know, Billy Fessler's the quarterback coach.
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:52.559
Is he gonna let him uh is he gonna let them do their job or is he gonna take over the play calling?
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:58.880
I think that we need to let them do their jobs and uh really how tight's his shirt gonna be a park.
00:28:59.279 --> 00:29:00.000
That's what I want to say.
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:01.759
I'll tell you how sharp and how tight it's gonna be.
00:29:01.839 --> 00:29:04.240
It's gonna be the time you can see everything that's in his shirt.
00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:08.960
And then the next question is how majestic is that beard painting gonna be?
00:29:09.200 --> 00:29:11.359
Really simple game plan for this weekend.
00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:16.640
Four throws it to four who gives four a high five when he catches it for a touchdown.
00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:18.079
Four needs to touch the ball.
00:29:19.599 --> 00:29:23.200
And if you need to run the ball, it's Bo Jackson runs it once and four runs.
00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:25.119
I legitimately asked this question.
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:29.759
Have you ever seen and and I think you can make some arguments for some people.
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:33.519
Have you ever seen a more dominant college football player than that guy?
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:36.240
Um yes, OJ Simpson back in the day.
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:37.119
Yeah.
00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:39.200
Before he killed his wife and her boyfriend.
00:29:39.279 --> 00:29:39.599
Yeah.
00:29:39.839 --> 00:29:47.519
Um, I think there I think there are some that you could obviously make the argument for, but I think that it's Hersha Walker's the most dominant player I've ever seen.
00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:48.160
Bo Jackson.
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:49.119
I would say Bo Jackson.
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:49.680
Bo Jackson.
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:51.279
Bo Jackson was stupid good.
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:51.920
Yep.
00:29:52.160 --> 00:29:54.079
Um, you know, I would say that Billy.
00:29:54.240 --> 00:29:56.640
But he but for a wide receiver, he's up there.
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.359
Billy Sims at Oklahoma was unbelievable.
00:29:59.519 --> 00:30:02.240
Archie Griffin won two Heisman trophies, folks.
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:04.400
I mean What was that guy you like back in the 20s?
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:06.720
Hoppy Hopp along Cassidy.
00:30:06.960 --> 00:30:07.519
That's him right there.
00:30:07.599 --> 00:30:08.079
But look at him.
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:09.440
Hoppalone Cassidy, baby.
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:11.039
You couldn't tackle number 40.
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:14.880
How hard, how fun was it to listen to that on the radio when he was playing?
00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:15.839
It was pretty awesome.
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:16.720
That's what I figured.
00:30:16.880 --> 00:30:21.920
Uh, you know, when they first introduced the non-leather helmet was a really turning point in my life.
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:23.680
Um I could see that.
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:28.880
But but but seriously, when you when you think about what was his real name?
00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:29.839
Uh Howard.
00:30:30.079 --> 00:30:30.799
Howard Cassidy.
00:30:31.039 --> 00:30:31.680
Howard Cassidy.
00:30:31.920 --> 00:30:32.400
That's right.
00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:35.920
So, anywho, uh, we'll see what happens.
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:39.519
Uh, but uh yeah, it's definitely going to be going to be interesting.
00:30:39.599 --> 00:30:41.359
Who's uh UK got this week?
00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:42.799
They're off by a week.
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:43.359
Uh bye week.
00:30:43.519 --> 00:30:43.920
It's a win.
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:45.039
Getting ready for Tennessee.
00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:45.519
Tennessee.
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.000
Tennessee and it's a blackout.
00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:52.559
And the last time that happened, yeah, it was a complete beat down by Tennessee.
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:53.359
It was awful.
00:30:53.759 --> 00:30:55.119
It was Will Levis's team.
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:58.160
Kentucky was fairly highly ranked going down there.
00:30:58.240 --> 00:31:01.920
They were on a roll and got smacked by Tennessee.
00:31:02.079 --> 00:31:04.319
And how bad is Arch Manning, by the way?
00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:04.799
Oh.
00:31:05.119 --> 00:31:12.960
I mean, looks like a million bucks in the first half of that game last week, and then literally couldn't throw it in the ocean if he's standing on the beach in the second half.
00:31:13.279 --> 00:31:17.039
You think Cooper ever goes, he's not the best.
00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:17.839
You know what?
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:18.880
I'll make a bet right now.
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:20.400
He ends up in oldness next year.
00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:23.920
Do you think?
00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:26.000
I don't know.
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:30.640
God, they would be going from probably the best quarterback in college football to not.
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:31.119
Yes.
00:31:31.279 --> 00:31:32.640
I mean, that guy's going pro, you know that.
00:31:32.720 --> 00:31:33.440
You're talking about Jenny?
00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:35.359
He's awesome.
00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:36.240
But think about it.
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:41.119
Arch is gonna call, make some string pulls, Sarks out of Texas, and that's where Manning goes.
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:44.079
Do we have uh do we have our bets to discuss at this point?
00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:44.720
I don't.
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:46.559
I've not even looked at the spread this week.
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:46.880
Okay.
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:50.000
So I can give you a couple of uh teaser spreads.
00:31:50.079 --> 00:31:50.480
How about that?
00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:51.440
Yeah, that'd be good.
00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:54.000
Let's go to some top 25 matchups.
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:56.799
Uh what's the big game this week?
00:31:57.039
--> 00:31:57.839
I can tell you.
00:31:58.000 --> 00:31:59.440
It's Florida and Georgia.
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:02.480
At Atlanta, right?
00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:04.880
Uh they play in Jacksonville all the time.
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:10.160
I think this one's in the it may be, but Jacksonville's where they typically always play because it's the biggest cocktail party.
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:10.559
Yeah, right.
00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:11.680
Can you look and see?
00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:12.960
I think this one's in Atlanta.
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:15.200
I bet Georgia's an eight and a half point favorite.
00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:17.680
I'm I'm curious about that now.
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:24.559
Florida versus Georgia.
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:27.200
Uh it is in Atlanta.
00:32:27.359 --> 00:32:27.519
Okay.
00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:29.039
At the Mercedes Bend.
00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:29.519
Okay.
00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:30.079
All right.
00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:32.720
So that game, you think it's what?
00:32:32.960 --> 00:32:33.519
Eight and a half.
00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:34.559
What do you think?
00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:38.640
I think Georgia will be favored by six and a half.
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:39.680
11.5.
00:32:40.480 --> 00:32:41.119
A lot of points.
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:43.279
You never know what Florida team you're going to get.
00:32:43.599 --> 00:32:44.720
I've seen two sides of Florida.
00:32:44.880 --> 00:32:45.519
Yep.
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:47.200
That'd be an interesting one.
00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:47.519
Yep.
00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:48.240
Big game.
00:32:48.400 --> 00:32:49.359
What time's that game, you know?
00:32:49.599 --> 00:32:49.839
Yep.
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:50.720
I can tell you.
00:32:50.799 --> 00:32:52.240
Uh game to watch.
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:52.720
Yeah, yeah.
00:32:53.119 --> 00:32:53.680
3.30.
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:54.720
It's the 3.30 game.
00:32:54.799 --> 00:32:55.759
I watched that one.
00:32:56.480 --> 00:33:00.400
Uh Ohio State with their new freshman quarterback, 5-2.
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:02.960
5'10, 180-pound freshman.
00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:04.079
Sounds like Pavia.
00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:06.160
7 30 at night, but it's West Coast.
00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:08.240
I think he's 5'10, 205.
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:09.119
He's got a little tricky.
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:10.640
USC.
00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:12.240
What time is it again?
00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:13.200
7:30.
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:13.359
Yeah.
00:33:13.599 --> 00:33:14.799
What do you think the line is for it?
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:15.599
Six and a half.
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:16.319
Nine and a half.
00:33:16.480 --> 00:33:17.200
Six and a half.
00:33:17.279 --> 00:33:18.319
Oh, you've already seen it.
00:33:18.400 --> 00:33:19.359
I I just know it.
00:33:19.440 --> 00:33:20.319
I'm ready.
00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:24.240
Uh, I I I think I might take the Buckeyes with that.
00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:30.960
It might not be my bet, but look, in the game that is
the lowest over-under I've seen in a long time.
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:31.279
Okay.
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:33.200
Wisconsin at Iowa.
00:33:33.519 --> 00:33:33.759
Yep.
00:33:33.920 --> 00:33:34.480
35.
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:36.079
36 and a half.
00:33:36.640 --> 00:33:37.279
Yeah.
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:38.960
The Hawkeyes.
00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:40.960
Hawkeyes are favored by three and a half.
00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:43.680
Hawkeyes lost this past week against Minnesota.
00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:45.519
I feel the Hawkeyes could win in that game.
00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:46.480
That'd be awful.
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:49.039
Uh, Arizona is at Texas Tech.
00:33:49.119 --> 00:33:51.119
Texas Tech's favored by three and a half.
00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:53.279
And Texas Tech just got smoked.
00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:55.119
Auburn's at Old Miss.
00:33:55.759 --> 00:33:58.640
Old Miss by nine and a half.
00:33:58.799 --> 00:34:00.720
Old Miss defense, not very good.
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:01.920
13 and a half.
00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:03.279
That's a lot of points.
00:34:03.519 --> 00:34:04.400
That's a big yeah.
00:34:04.640 --> 00:34:05.599
That's a lot of points.
00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:09.840
I mean, that's that's an Auburn team that took it to Georgia.
00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:13.199
Here's the game I'm interested in, and I'm interested in your all's opinions.
00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:13.519
Yeah.
00:34:13.760 --> 00:34:14.559
Minnesota.
00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:14.960
Yeah.
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:16.239
Not great.
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:17.679
Not terrible.
00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:18.239
Yep.
00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:19.840
At Indiana.
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:24.239
Indiana's offense is really struggling, and their quarterback is injured.
00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:26.719
He will keep playing, but he's not playing well.
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:30.639
I think that's I think it's like seven and a half points.
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:31.599
12 and a half.
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:33.039
20 and a half.
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:34.239
No way.
00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:38.079
Gotta see if there's anybody missing from Minnesota.
00:34:38.239 --> 00:34:38.480
Okay.
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:39.760
Because I got burnt by that.
00:34:39.920 --> 00:34:40.079
Yes.
00:34:40.800 --> 00:34:42.079
Mississippi State game the other day.
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:43.440
Minnesota just beat Iowa.
00:34:43.760 --> 00:34:44.719
20 and a half.
00:34:44.800 --> 00:34:45.519
That's a lot of points.
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:46.639
What's the over under?
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:48.639
41 and a half.
00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:51.199
So they're expecting it to be 30 to 10, basically.
00:34:51.519 --> 00:34:52.960
Indiana's defense is really good.
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:53.199
Yeah.
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:53.760
Okay.
00:34:54.079 --> 00:34:56.239
But they can't score 25 points.
00:34:56.559 --> 00:34:58.400
Indiana's offense is struggling.
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:00.159
They're on the struggle bus right now.
00:35:01.039
--> 00:35:03.920
Arizona State at BYU, 16 and a half.
00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:05.199
I'd see that.
00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:09.199
That is Wake Forest over Virginia, 12 and a half.
00:35:09.360 --> 00:35:10.320
That's a lot.
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:12.239
Does Notre Dame play this week?
00:35:12.480 --> 00:35:15.840
Yeah, they play uh Navy, 30 and a half.
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:17.599
Oh, look, neither one are in the conference.
00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:18.159
What?
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:19.519
They don't have to be.
00:35:20.239 --> 00:35:24.239
What about Texas State at Boise State?
00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:27.199
Boise should be about a 13 and a half point favorite.
00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:28.559
I'd say 23.
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:30.000
11 and a half.
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:31.119
That's low.
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:32.320
Caught me off guard, too.
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:34.480
That's a couple of them that caught me a little bit off guard.
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:35.199
Interesting.
00:35:35.760 --> 00:35:37.360
And two more.
00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:39.119
Actually, three more.
00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:42.559
Number one Miami at North Carolina.
00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:47.039
North Carolina's defense is going to slow the game down.
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:52.559
I would say that Miami is favored, but by like 13 and a half.
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:53.440
17 and a half.
00:35:53.679 --> 00:35:54.480
14 and a half.
00:35:54.719 --> 00:35:55.199
I was close.
00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:55.840
Oh yeah.
00:35:56.159 --> 00:35:58.800
Mississippi State at Texas.
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:03.199
Texas by four and Mississippi State's quarterback was back this week.
00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:06.719
Texas 4 and 2.
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:08.400
I don't know what to think about Mississippi State.
00:36:08.480 --> 00:36:09.119
I keep getting burned.
00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:12.079
Look, they're either one of them, they're a tail of two teams.
00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:12.880
That's the way it is.
00:36:13.119 --> 00:36:17.679
So if their quarterback is back, I will take Mississippi State in this game.
00:36:17.760 --> 00:36:17.920
Yeah.
00:36:18.320 --> 00:36:19.840
Because it's 20 and a half.
00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:20.880
That is ridiculous.
00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:21.360
Wow.
00:36:21.599 --> 00:36:23.599
Does Michigan play this week or are they off?
00:36:23.840 --> 00:36:24.239
Who?
00:36:24.639 --> 00:36:25.920
Yeah, that team up north.
00:36:26.159 --> 00:36:27.039
I'm allowed to say it.
00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:28.079
It's not the week.
00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:28.719
Okay.
00:36:29.840 --> 00:36:31.199
I think they may be off.
00:36:31.360 --> 00:36:32.960
They play Rutgers this week.
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:33.440
Oh, okay.
00:36:34.159 --> 00:36:34.960
That'll be a beatdown.
00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:35.840
14.
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:36.400
Yeah.
00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:38.400
That's a lot of points for them, though.
00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:40.159
So but it's Rutgers.
00:36:40.559 --> 00:36:42.559
Who else in the Big Ten you want to hear from?
00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:44.079
Um Illinois.
00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:46.239
What about Northwestern at Oregon?
00:36:46.480 --> 00:36:47.360
Three and a half.
00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:49.360
Well, Oregon keeps firing everyone.
00:36:50.239 --> 00:36:51.599
Look, that's the Will Stein effect.
00:36:51.920 --> 00:36:54.079
Look, their offensive coordinator was terrible.
00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:55.199
Yeah.
00:36:56.239 --> 00:36:57.199
They wanted rid of him.
00:36:57.440 --> 00:36:58.400
That didn't work out.
00:36:59.440 --> 00:37:01.440
Well, maybe it was him.
00:37:02.079 --> 00:37:02.639
Maybe it was.
00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:04.880
Why are you tired, bruh?
00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:08.559
Somebody didn't sleep well last night.
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:10.800
What are you doing?
00:37:12.239 --> 00:37:13.280
Oh, here we go.
00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:14.800
Are you safe?
00:37:14.960 --> 00:37:15.599
Yeah.
00:37:16.159 --> 00:37:21.199
So are we going to are we going to the fall festival in Lima this weekend?
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:21.920
Let's hit it.
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:22.639
I'm in.
00:37:22.719 --> 00:37:23.039
I'm in.
00:37:23.599 --> 00:37:24.159
I can go now.
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:25.679
I've not been back in the camera.
00:37:26.079 --> 00:37:26.960
The Bean Festival.
00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:27.599
Right.
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:29.280
The Lima Bean Festival.
00:37:29.519 --> 00:37:34.239
Can we go to the German village while we're up there close to Lama's Schmidt?
00:37:34.480 --> 00:37:36.639
I was looking at a house in German Village the other day.
00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:38.400
Well, I just need a Bahama Mama.
