1:53
writes, Kevin, I know how much you love
1:56
Jaden Daniels, but the best thing
1:58
that could happen to him is to
2:00
sit and learn behind
2:02
a player in
2:05
Mariota who had similar talent coming
2:07
out of college. Patrick
2:09
Mahomes, Jordan Love are perfect
2:11
examples of patience is a
2:13
virtue and a huge benefit
2:15
for rookie QBs. So
2:18
I'm going to answer this very quickly
2:20
and bluntly. If Jayden
2:22
Daniels doesn't start week one
2:24
for this football team, I
2:27
will be very concerned. Now
2:30
there's context that would make me less concerned.
2:32
You know, he gets banged up. He's not
2:35
100% or he's injured. But
2:39
Jayden Daniels isn't a
2:41
quarterback drafted by a team with
2:43
an entrenched starter and a team
2:46
by the way that's good. Like
2:49
Patrick Mahomes was. Alex
2:51
Smith was the starter. The Chiefs
2:53
were good. Aaron Rodgers, Hall of
2:55
Famer, the Packers were good. No
2:58
one expected Jordan Love to come in
3:00
and play with Aaron Rodgers there. Patrick
3:02
Mahomes at the time, believe it or
3:05
not, nobody expected him to come in
3:07
and start right away. Alex Smith was
3:09
coming off a decent year. By the
3:11
way, they got off to a great
3:13
start to that season. Look,
3:16
I did this several years
3:18
ago when Dwayne Haskins was
3:20
drafted. And I don't have all of
3:22
the data in front of me right now, but
3:25
I remember very clearly that
3:27
if you were drafted in the top
3:30
half of the first round and
3:32
you didn't start in the first four weeks
3:34
of the season, I think it was, then
3:38
pretty much you were a bust. Now
3:41
there were exceptions to the rule and
3:43
Mahomes was an exception to
3:45
the rule and there were a couple of other exceptions
3:48
to the rule. But for the most part, if
3:51
you were drafted really high,
3:54
you were being drafted more likely than not to
3:56
a team that wasn't very good. And
3:58
if you weren't ready to play. Yea, right
4:00
away it turned out that
4:03
you. Basically. We're
4:05
Christian Ponder or Jake
4:07
Locker or you know,
4:09
Brandon Weeden or I'm
4:11
You know the names
4:13
are gameplay mortals or
4:15
you know, guys like
4:18
that. Are you just
4:20
work. Do. Turned out
4:22
to not be worthy of
4:24
where you got kicked. Jaden.
4:27
Daniels is not coming in here behind
4:30
a guide. It's been here for a
4:32
while and is good. Marcus Mario to
4:34
was signed to be the back for
4:36
Jaden Daniels. By the way, you know
4:38
Dan Queens never had as a head
4:41
coach a rookie quarterback. ah I'm You
4:43
know whether you know it was in
4:45
Atlanta or anywhere Reese had any kind
4:47
of decision making ability. I'm in Seattle
4:50
Brought in Russell Wilson when remember they
4:52
had signed Matt Flynn but it wasn't.
4:55
He was the defensive coordinator. Are
4:57
put any weight. And I was going
4:59
to mention Cliff Kingsbury. We put Kingsbury
5:01
was the head coach in Arizona in
5:04
a drastic Tyler Murray. You know what
5:06
Tyler Murray did Week one start. His.
5:08
First two seasons, he started thirty
5:10
two out of the thirty two
5:13
games. By the way, his first
5:15
game, as in Arizona Cardinals through
5:17
for over three hundred yards and
5:19
again, that ended up in a
5:21
high twenty seven to twenty seven.
5:23
Ah, but. Ah, Tyler
5:25
Murray. I would actually suggest
5:28
if we're looking at Cliff
5:30
Kingsbury is potentially part of
5:32
the decision making group as
5:34
it relates to Jaden Daniels.
5:37
Tyler Murray was not as
5:39
advanced as a passer as
5:41
Jaden Daniels's. If
5:44
there were reasons like you know,
5:46
this is square peg round hole
5:48
right now, but he's so talented
5:50
and will figure out a way
5:52
to get him on the field
5:54
sooner rather than later. Rg Three
5:56
kind of fit into that category
5:58
of not being ready. Be
6:00
an Nfl pocket passer but
6:02
for him fortunately he had
6:05
coaches that we're ready to
6:07
create around what he did
6:09
do Well right at it
6:11
again. Ah, I'd be very,
6:14
very surprised and I would
6:16
be disappointed if Jaden Daniels
6:18
isn't ready to start on
6:20
this football team. Week.
6:23
One. Marcus. Mario To, by
6:25
the way wit who you would
6:27
like to see start and have
6:29
Jaden Daniel sit behind and learn
6:32
from and you mention that they
6:34
had similar talents coming out of
6:36
college, which by the way is
6:38
somewhat true. They certainly had similar
6:41
resumes are just outrageous production in
6:43
college Heisman Trophy winners and this
6:45
the number two pick are in
6:47
the Nfl draft. both of them
6:49
Mario To went right after James
6:52
Winston in the Twenty Fifteen draft.
6:54
Are Mario to start it right from
6:57
the jump at Tennessee. his the number
6:59
to pick in. played pretty well his
7:01
rookie season. At times he missed some
7:04
games I think he was banged up
7:06
after the fifth game in years. but
7:08
I went back and looked in his
7:11
first two games. Ah for tennis see
7:13
six touchdowns, no pics. Ah was thirty
7:15
four of fifty two for four hundred
7:18
and sixty six yards in his first
7:20
two games. He actually did not run
7:22
the ball much early. Ah, in
7:24
those starts air in Tennessee.
7:27
He did have a couple
7:29
of games later in the
7:31
year, including a game where
7:33
he rushed for over a
7:35
hundred yards against Jacksonville. but
7:37
now I just disagree with
7:39
you or wit, I think
7:41
the Jaden Daniels ease far
7:43
enough along. In
7:46
in coming out of in
7:48
a more professional style off
7:50
and said unless you playing
7:52
a lot of football I'm.
7:54
Alice, You and before that at Arizona
7:56
State and I think ready in so
7:58
many different ways. I don't
8:01
think this coaching staff who by the
8:03
way have never used words like rebuild.
8:05
They. Have used recalibrate.
8:08
Ah, And recalibrate
8:10
means. You. Know they
8:12
want to put out a good
8:14
products. And they want to
8:16
get this guy going if she's not
8:19
ready to start week one. I think
8:21
it's indicative of something that they didn't
8:23
see coming. With. Him. That.
8:25
Would be my guest sit a again.
8:27
Some context could change the way I
8:30
feel but. I. Think Jaden
8:32
Daniels week one or
8:34
I'll be concerned. Ah,
8:36
Adam Peters spoke today.
8:39
He spoke on Big One Hundred
8:41
that is the flagship station or
8:44
that carries all of the Washington
8:46
Commanders games and ah see did
8:48
he's interview with them post draft
8:51
interview with them to day and
8:53
there was an answer that he
8:56
gave that was interesting. He was
8:58
asked about whether or not there
9:00
were any opportunities to look to
9:03
trade back. This is what he
9:05
said. That it can be
9:07
surprised. really? In terms
9:10
of the offers we got you
9:12
know really one solid offer and
9:14
if you know I didn't move
9:16
the needle. amenable to take Adam
9:18
of mountain together Father Jean and
9:20
I'm in early move the needle
9:22
in a weird i december really
9:24
comfortable with were at and I'm
9:26
mad at I've ever taken alive
9:28
our out again but it was
9:30
given up on what was the
9:32
taken to or to get assaulted
9:34
in. The. What offer had
9:36
to be from Minnesota, right? Minnesota
9:38
had a Levin. They had twenty
9:40
three in the first round. in
9:43
vegas raiders the denver broncos they didn't
9:45
have the draft capital to move up
9:47
to to the one offer came from
9:49
minnesota it's certainly didn't come from the
9:52
giants washington and new york not going
9:54
to do a deal that high up
9:56
in the draft you're not going to
9:58
give new york a free swinging the
10:00
number two quarterback in the draft.
10:03
So I'm guessing that the one
10:05
offer that wasn't even
10:07
close but the one
10:09
offer came from Minnesota. By the
10:11
way in that interview on Big
10:13
100 Adam Peters emphasized
10:16
once again that Jayden Daniels
10:18
was the number one player
10:20
on their entire board. So
10:23
that means if they had had number one
10:25
they would not have taken Caleb Williams they
10:27
would have taken Jayden Daniels. If you trust
10:29
what he is saying. I
10:32
want to tell you real quickly about
10:34
PrizePix. It's an app that is as
10:37
fun as you get in daily fantasy sports.
10:39
I've talked about it previously I'm going to
10:41
give you actually a more
10:44
than less than play for
10:46
tonight's NBA playoffs
10:48
but PrizePix is the largest
10:50
daily fantasy sports platform in
10:53
North America. It's just you against
10:55
the numbers instead of you battling
10:58
thousands of other players. You
11:00
pick more than or less than on
11:02
between two and six players
11:05
and their stat projections with
11:07
odds. Like tonight in
11:10
the NBA in the biggest game of
11:12
the NBA playoffs so far game six
11:14
tonight in Philadelphia 76ers down 3-2 against
11:16
the Knicks.
11:20
Jaylen Brunson who has gone for
11:22
47 and 40 in the last
11:24
two games. His more than less
11:26
than numbers 33 points. I'm
11:28
gonna go less than 33 for Brunson and
11:32
I'm gonna go more than 30 and
11:34
a half points for Embiid who
11:36
did not have a good game in game
11:39
five even though his team won the game
11:41
but he was a warrior man. He had
11:43
a migraine he's got a knee injury he's
11:45
got bells palsy and he's out there 48
11:48
minutes. He didn't play great at
11:50
times but he did have a triple double
11:52
and he came up with some big plays
11:54
in overtime. I'm gonna go more than and
11:57
expect Embiid to have a big night tonight
11:59
and I'm I'm going to go less than
12:01
with Brunson. So less than 33 with
12:03
Brunson, more than 30 and a half
12:06
with Embiid. It
12:08
pays three to one. So 20 gives
12:10
you 60 back, 30 gives you 90 back. You
12:12
can do the math. 200 gives you 600 back. PrizePix,

12:47
of the NBA, I got this from Xander.
12:50
Xander sent me a tweet that I
12:52
read right before the radio show this
12:54
morning. Thanks for wasting my
12:57
time, Kevin. I decided to take your advice
12:59
and watch the NBA playoffs last night.
13:02
Two games, two blowouts, no drama at
13:04
all. I know it's just one night,
13:06
but I'd like to have those five
13:08
hours back. Thank you. Yeah,
13:11
Xander, you're right. Last night was not
13:13
the night to push everybody to watch
13:15
the NBA playoffs. I should have known
13:17
that, but I was excited about the
13:19
Nick 76ers game the night before. Excited
13:23
about two nights previous, the
13:25
Nuggets Lakers game. But
13:27
I should have known. The Heat had
13:29
no chance against Boston without Jimmy Butler.
13:32
They just didn't have any prayer. I
13:34
did think the second game last night would
13:37
be interesting between the Clippers and the Mavericks.
13:40
James Harden, who in game four had 33
13:43
for LA and carried them in the fourth quarter
13:45
in a game that evened up the series on
13:47
the road. Last night it
13:49
looked like he had never played basketball before. And
13:52
that's kind of been the story of James Harden's
13:54
career to a certain extent, right? In
13:56
the postseason, he has a big game.
14:00
and then it looks like he's never
14:02
played before in the two games that
14:04
follow. Harden had seven points
14:06
on two of 12 shooting and
14:08
he was fumbling and bumbling the ball around like
14:10
he was just learning how to dribble for the
14:13
first time. It was embarrassing.
14:16
I don't think the Clippers can win just
14:18
like the Heat had no shot without Jimmy
14:20
Butler. I just don't think the Clippers can
14:22
win four out of seven against
14:25
almost anybody without Kawhi Leonard.
14:27
I just don't think that'll
14:29
happen. But Xander, my fault,
14:31
my apologies. There
14:34
is a game tonight that I would
14:36
suggest you keep an eye on. 76ers,
14:38
Knicks, Game 6 in Philly. By the
14:40
way, Josh Harris, who owns the 76ers,
14:43
he and the Fnatic CEO who
14:45
is a shareholder in
14:47
the 76ers and the other
14:49
76ers owners including David Blitzer.
14:51
They purchased 2,000 tickets
14:55
to tonight's game to keep Knicks
14:57
fans from buying up buying the
14:59
tickets up. Knicks fans took over
15:01
the arena in Philly for games
15:03
three and four and
15:06
Harris bought up 2,000 tickets
15:08
and is giving them out to
15:11
first responders, health care professionals, and
15:13
others 76ers fans but
15:15
to keep Knicks fans out of
15:17
the arena. That story
15:19
prompted several people to reach out to
15:21
me to say, do you think Josh
15:23
Harris will do that with his football
15:25
team next year to keep Eagles fans out
15:27
of the stadium, to keep Cowboys fans out
15:30
of the stadium? No, I don't.
15:32
And I don't think we should ask. I
15:34
think $6 billion
15:36
to take Dan Snyder out.
15:40
We should just say thank you over
15:42
and over again. You know what he
15:44
should focus on is winning. Winning
15:48
will change the crowd
15:50
dynamic in Landover.
15:53
Speaking of Landover
15:55
and football stadiums,
15:58
RFK Stadium is
16:01
now available to be demolished.
16:03
The National Park Service evaluated
16:06
the potential effects on the
16:08
natural cultural and human environment
16:10
related to the demolition of
16:13
Robert F Kennedy Memorial Stadium and
16:15
they've determined or
16:17
it has determined that the
16:20
stadium can be demolished. I
16:22
know it's an eyesore and it's been
16:25
you know vacant and maybe even unsafe
16:28
for five years but when
16:30
they do demolish that stadium we're gonna
16:32
do a whole show around the memories
16:34
of that old barn. For
16:37
most of us, many of you me, our
16:40
greatest sports rooting memories are
16:43
from that spot but
16:46
can't build a new stadium on
16:48
that land unless you demolish the
16:50
old one so perhaps some
16:53
good news there. One
16:55
more thing, the Nats had a really good
16:57
win last night, won nothing. Trevor Williams and
16:59
then four relievers shutting out
17:02
the Rangers to get back to
17:04
500. They've actually been really impressive
17:06
through the first 30 games. Well
17:08
they just lost the getaway game
17:10
this afternoon in Texas, 6 to
17:12
nothing to fall, a game under
17:15
500 but still last
17:17
night really impressive Trevor Williams, three
17:20
bases loaded no out
17:23
jams he got out of. Scott
17:26
Van Pelt next right after these words
17:28
from a few of our sponsors. If
17:33
you're a basketball junkie then you know
17:35
there's no better time of year than
17:37
the NBA playoffs. Twice a week JJ
17:40
Redick is cooking on his podcast The
17:42
Old Man and the Three. He has
17:44
guys come on in all stages of
17:46
their careers to talk about the league
17:48
and share stories you won't hear anywhere
17:51
else including Devin Booker on why he
17:53
talks so much trash, Ray Allen's epic
17:55
free throw competitions with LeBron in Miami
17:57
and the moment Tyrese Halliburton new Pascal
17:59
Siaka would be a good fit in
18:02
indie. In addition to player interviews, every
18:04
Monday JJ breaks down the top 3
18:06
things happening around the NBA with unmatched
18:08
analysis, not outlandish takes, and is often
18:10
joined by masterminds of the game like
18:13
Tim Lightler to dive deep on rookie
18:15
reports, trade breakdowns, and why is mean
18:17
mugging now attack? You won't find another
18:19
outlet that covers the game as comprehensively
18:21
and with such insight as JJ does
18:24
it on The Old Man and the
18:26
Three. Make this your companion podcast during
18:28
the playoffs. Listen to The Old Man
18:30

21:24
my very good friend Scott
21:26
Van Pelt from ESPN, the
21:28
Scott Van Pelt Sports Center, every
21:30
night with Stanford. I want
21:32
to talk draft with you to start here,
21:34
but I want to ask you a question
21:36
about just being at ESPN all of these
21:39
years and being
21:41
a part of this
21:43
massive entity which is draft coverage
21:46
on ESPN. We're down
21:48
here now, the show originates from DC, but
21:51
still your show follows up draft night, you've
21:59
been around it. what's it like it's
22:02
such a big deal and i have such
22:04
an appreciation for the
22:06
down the amount of work that goes into
22:09
it for the production site it's
22:12
it there have been a four hundred sixty
22:14
some odd cut up of of video
22:17
they do still may take some guard
22:19
from concordia date or whatever here come
22:22
you know louis riddick or belkite bird
22:25
junior or make a better per perp
22:27
shooter whomever is ready to just
22:29
dive in and talk about incredible uh... and
22:31
so you you you sent the
22:33
scale of it all when you see the
22:35
hundreds of thousands of people and then you
22:38
see the ratings that that uh... they come
22:40
out after the fact yet
22:42
another reminder as if it's necessary that single
22:45
greatest attention-getter in the country
22:47
is that i felt the ball yet
22:50
it's crazy uh... you mentioned
22:52
uh... saben uh... he
22:54
was on the broadcast with the college
22:57
guys with the race bill belicich was
22:59
on with matt pat but with pat
23:01
mackenzie what do you think
23:03
it does what do you think of those
23:05
two next year's analysts will
23:08
be great i i i know both of
23:10
them uh... a bit away from sort
23:12
of coverage of sports
23:14
right i've had time to be around them
23:17
in settings where you get to see the
23:20
very different men
23:23
they are uh... when they're
23:25
not you know where the court is that being
23:27
asked questions about why do you
23:29
put up a third quarter like that the
23:31
football iq is that is as
23:34
you would get just incredible but then there
23:36
is what what the thing about
23:38
belicich the both people's minds if you could
23:40
keep it shortening you know guy with
23:43
a smile at the place we talking to people that
23:45
he signed up to talk with
23:47
and is interested in the content it they um...
23:50
it'll be phenomenal on mac and p guarantee and
23:52
it will be great michael be great on game
23:54
day i think he showed it he showed a
23:56
willingness to be it'll be critical that
23:59
the with the hard thing like Are
24:01
you willing to be critical of teams
24:03
and coaches and players? I
24:05
don't think that Nick did it. It
24:08
was one guy, it was like Mims, wasn't it
24:10
the guy from Georgia who didn't play a bunch
24:12
in the game we played
24:14
against in the SEC title game or whatever. He
24:17
just made the point, he didn't play. He
24:19
tapped out at some point, don't know why. Don't
24:22
both be great. Is Belichick just
24:24
set for McAfee or are we going to
24:26
get him on a
24:28
Sunday set or even in the
24:30
booth? I'm not sure, I don't
24:33
know what Belichick's role is going to be next year. Do
24:36
you? Nor do I. And
24:38
I don't know for certain what he'll be doing
24:40
with Pat other than what they kind of alluded
24:43
to on draft night that it sounds like maybe
24:46
on Mondays you'll see him there. I
24:50
don't know. I'm sure everyone's
24:53
interested in having
24:55
him in whatever role he's interested
24:58
in and that's just a matter of
25:00
what the appetite is for
25:02
signing up to do it. I
25:05
think we're just going to learn so much from
25:08
the two of them, especially in this
25:10
first year where they really still know
25:12
all of the players, all of the
25:14
coaches, etc. I'm actually looking
25:16
forward to it. I totally agree. What
25:18
did you think of Washington settling in
25:20
on Jaden Daniels? You
25:25
can't see me, I'm just sort of shrugging. I
25:27
hope it's right. I
25:31
talked about this with Steve on
25:33
our podcast the other night about maybe just having
25:36
some PTSD about
25:38
trusting any quarterback that gets picked when you
25:40
look at the 19 draft. The
25:43
only one that's still with the team that picked him
25:45
is Trevor Lawrence and these are guys that came out
25:47
of big time programs. Fields was at Ohio State and
25:53
Jones was from Alabama. Obviously
25:56
Lawrence was at Clemson. They played in playoff games. They
25:59
played in big time. college football atmosphere is a lot
26:01
of them and you know it just doesn't work and
26:04
in many cases so I
26:06
hope it works I all the
26:08
all the commentary about the whole pop
26:11
golf and who's like whatever it's just
26:13
it's just the fodder that the fuel for what
26:15
we all do I mean ultimately
26:17
he's either gonna be able to do it
26:20
or he can't I hope he can but
26:22
I think anyone that says definitively that he
26:24
or any of these these quarterbacks that were
26:27
taken it's gonna work in here is why
26:29
well you're guessing you're guessing and
26:32
I I'm just guessing if I say
26:34
what I think will happen so I just don't know
26:36
I'm saying I hope that he's the
26:38
guy yeah I'm with you
26:41
on that but did you have a preference prior
26:43
to the draft for Washington at two
26:46
yeah I I think I
26:50
think of once it was clear
26:52
that the Williams wasn't gonna be available
26:55
then of the two that that I
26:57
like that better but if
27:00
I mean if I'm picking that's what I'd have
27:02
done but then you talk to people that are
27:04
in the sport and they're like May is gonna
27:06
be the guy and then there are other people
27:08
like nah May's day he's like when Belichick's just
27:11
like I have speech fireworks all over the place
27:13
but like you know that was a really interesting
27:15
cut up where you know every every draft every
27:17
draft video is the five or six amazing plays
27:19
that the prospect had you
27:22
could do just as just as
27:24
interesting a 30-second clip of mistakes
27:26
they made and and
27:28
I found that interesting when Belichick was pointing at
27:31
things that all these guys could clean up but
27:34
it in the end watching watching
27:36
him at LSU this year it was you know
27:38
it's astounding then the question could be well he
27:40
had two first-round wide receivers on his team well
27:42
how much how much of that had to do
27:44
with him well I don't know Panics was in
27:46
the same boat I mean he had three guys
27:49
who went the first three rounds of wide receiver
27:51
so I mean a lot of these
27:53
guys are surrounded with talent and
27:57
that's that's the direction that I'd have gone in the end
27:59
and And I was, I was again, hoping
28:02
they would, and they did. Uh,
28:05
somebody sent me this note and I read
28:07
it on radio today and we took calls
28:09
on it and I'll just net it out.
28:11
It was basically that Adam
28:14
Peters, the new general manager, by
28:16
picking Jaden Daniels kind of put
28:18
himself into a position where he
28:20
can't be criticized or can't be
28:23
praised because of this
28:26
person, uh, suggested that he
28:28
was a consensus number two by the
28:30
time we got to draft night. And
28:33
it's almost like when Ernie Grunfeld, you know,
28:35
this is for DC sports conversation purposes,
28:37
when Ernie took John Wall at number
28:39
one, I mean, there was nobody else
28:42
to take that was obvious. And
28:44
that because he went
28:46
with the guy that everybody believes should be
28:48
picked there, you can't praise
28:50
him. You can't, you know,
28:52
complain about it. It'll work or it won't,
28:54
but that was the gut. That was the
28:56
safe pick. What, what is your reaction to
28:59
that? It
29:01
sounds about right. I mean, there's a
29:03
certain amount of, of slotting and it
29:06
takes over. And to that,
29:09
to the, to this particular pick
29:11
and prospect that felt like
29:14
that's what happened and I mean,
29:17
it's just interesting, right? We're all allowed
29:19
to grow. We're all allowed to get better. I
29:22
remember watching him. We played for her about it.
29:24
Arizona state and not thinking this
29:26
was a guy that would evolve into what he
29:28
became this year, um, but you
29:30
know, who he was playing for
29:32
Arizona state, comparing that to who he was this
29:34
year playing for LSU. It's, it's kind of pointless
29:37
to point it out other than just, I
29:39
didn't know then that he'd become this, but
29:41
by the time we got to Thursday, last
29:43
Thursday, night, yeah, it did. It felt
29:45
like the group thinks that, well, that's, that's just who you
29:48
take here. And I mean, I
29:50
don't know. There's, there's this whole cottage industry of mock
29:53
drafts and you know, how do you, how do your
29:55
picks net out? Well, then like, do we ever go,
29:57
like we do with the grades are on draft. closure
30:00
came up. Do we ever go back and go
30:02
look, everyone was right, but none of them were
30:04
right about whether they should have been picked care
30:06
or not. And I mean, when it comes to
30:08
quarterbacks, there's just so much intel through
30:11
the years that say they don't get
30:13
it right, no matter how much of the time
30:15
and effort and all the resources they pour into
30:17
it. So yeah,
30:19
I guess that's probably it. Like this was
30:21
the pick that you were supposed to take
30:23
and now we find out if anyone was
30:25
right. It's so funny that you just
30:28
said that because I had Warren
30:30
Sharp on the show yesterday and
30:32
he does this thing where
30:35
essentially he grades a draft, but it's not based
30:37
on whether or not they got the right players
30:40
or not. It's based on whether or not they
30:42
got the right players at the right spot, you
30:44
know, based on this consensus big board
30:46
that, you know, there's a
30:48
couple of guys out there that create, you
30:51
know, they go to hundreds of different evaluators
30:53
and mocks and they create a consensus big
30:55
board. And I asked him
30:57
and I said, well, what does it look
30:59
like for you three years after the fact?
31:02
Like, and he
31:04
said, to be honest to you, I've only been doing this for
31:07
a little while, so I haven't really
31:09
done an audit of, you
31:11
know, what it looks like three years from now, because
31:13
three years from now, you know, if
31:16
the team got it all right, like
31:18
every player right, but they picked three
31:20
players too early and three players too
31:23
late, I mean, who cares
31:25
really other than maybe draft value lost, you
31:27
know, and you could have done something else with the
31:30
draft spots. I don't know. Nobody
31:32
knows anything for three years. By the
31:34
way, I know you and I agree
31:37
entirely on this whole, essentially
31:40
what we're doing is grading draft
31:43
when that's just, who the
31:45
hell knows? Nobody does. We don't have a clue.
31:48
The teams don't know. They get it wrong 65% of
31:50
the time. But real
31:53
quickly on the question that I asked
31:55
you, I actually think Adam Peters is
31:57
going to get praise or blame. you
32:00
know, based on Jaden Daniels succeeding or failing,
32:02
because I actually think there was a choice.
32:05
I know that, you know, Schefter was
32:07
pretty sure, and a lot of the, you
32:09
know, in the last week to two weeks,
32:11
everybody really thought Daniels was the consensus
32:13
number two, but there was a question. You
32:16
know, Drake May was, you know,
32:19
the selection of a lot of people. I mean, I
32:21
know in our fan base, a lot of people preferred
32:24
Drake May. RG3 in 2012, Scott,
32:27
was absolutely the number two pick. It was
32:29
him in luck. This draft, I
32:31
think after Caleb, Daniels, May, you
32:34
know, people thought McCarthy were
32:37
all had positives, all had negatives, but
32:39
anyway, what else
32:41
from the draft stood out to you? I
32:44
would assume what Atlanta did stood out. Well,
32:48
sure, just because you've
32:51
spent the money on cousins,
32:53
and presuming,
32:57
you did that hoping it works, and if
32:59
it works, and he's your quarterback for four
33:02
years, then you'd conceivably go
33:04
into the fifth year of a guy you
33:06
took eight not having any idea if you're
33:08
supposed to extend him or not, and
33:12
it's just, I don't know. We
33:15
certainly see year after year the
33:17
number of quarterbacks who start games, and you go,
33:19
wait, what? This
33:23
is this person starting an NFL game, and
33:25
in some cases, they become all
33:27
a team has to go with. So
33:30
I guess we all understand the
33:32
notion that having too much of that position is
33:34
a hell of a lot better than not having enough, but
33:38
I didn't, like most
33:40
people, seem to understand it, and then I felt
33:43
like there was a whole lot of twisting themselves
33:45
into pretzels of people. They're like, no, no, I
33:47
didn't like it at first, but here's why it's
33:49
smart. Okay,
33:51
sure. That
33:54
was odd to me. I
33:57
think the way that the... depth
34:00
at offensive line wide receiver
34:02
and quarterback seem to
34:04
push a great deal of depth into
34:06
the second round. There felt that
34:09
it certainly seemed like there were a number of
34:11
players at positions
34:13
that you might not necessarily have
34:15
gotten them in the
34:17
second round were available as a result of
34:19
just you know the runs on specific linemen
34:21
and and the wide receiver talent
34:23
that that really is what's become interesting
34:25
to me Kevin is how that position
34:28
how ready guys are to
34:30
contribute immediately they come from
34:34
in many cases you know big-time programs God knows Ohio
34:36
State's got a ton of them and now Harrison just
34:38
becomes the next that presumably you
34:40
plug right in and it is a you
34:43
know a thousand plus yard receiver right out
34:45
of the gate that's a trend
34:47
where in the past three
34:50
or four years in particular it really feels like
34:53
it's become emphasized. I
34:55
want to go back to quarterbacks actually
34:57
because you like me and we we
35:00
talk about this all the time we
35:02
love Saturdays we watch a lot of
35:04
college football you talk to a lot
35:06
of people in this sport if
35:09
we assume that of that out
35:11
of the top six just
35:13
like the 2021 draft but let's go
35:16
with a slightly lower percentage and just
35:18
say three of the six are not
35:20
going to be on the teams that
35:23
drafted them. Understood we
35:25
don't know anything and it's impossible
35:28
but just gut feel based on
35:30
what we both watched you
35:32
know for an entire few years with some
35:34
of these guys who are the
35:37
three that are still on their teams three
35:40
years from now? Still on the team? Yeah still on
35:42
the teams three years from now. Three
35:45
years from now. Williams,
35:50
Daniels and
35:52
McCarthy. All
35:55
right I'll go
35:58
Williams, Daniels Daniels'...
36:02
...Pennix. I
36:04
mean, Pennix has to be on the team in
36:06
three years pretty much, right? Because in three years,
36:08
it's the third year, it'll probably be his first
36:10
year starting. Okay.
36:14
That adds actually a
36:16
unique wrinkle to this group because Pennix
36:18
probably won't play for a couple of
36:21
years. So maybe we should have said
36:23
four, but whatever. It's
36:25
just odd to use the first-round pick in the
36:27
National Football League like a developmental player, as if
36:30
you're taking somebody from Lithuania in the lottery in
36:32
the NBA. Right. So you're just going to stash
36:34
for a couple of years and then they're going
36:36
to show up and be like, oh, who's this
36:38
guy? Here's the second
36:40
quarterback question from the draft. Of the other
36:43
QBs and the next one didn't get selected
36:45
until the fifth round, Spencer Rattler. I think
36:47
a lot of people thought he might go
36:49
earlier. Rattler to the
36:51
Saints, Jordan Travis to the Jets, Joe
36:53
Milton to the Patriots, Devin Leary to
36:56
the Ravens, Michael Pratt to the Packers.
36:59
One of those guys ends up being a
37:01
starting quarterback three years from now. Who is
37:03
it? Travis
37:06
Foresnake, yeah. Yeah, that's
37:08
a good one. Do you
37:10
think if he hadn't broken his leg... Well, they obviously
37:12
would have been in the playoff, but
37:15
where would he have been drafted? I
37:20
don't know. It's
37:23
interesting that... I
37:25
mean, God knows that the NFL will talk themselves
37:28
into it, you know? Like, they
37:30
don't typically have to squint
37:32
too hard to see it in somebody.
37:34
So the fact that the
37:36
injury knocked him this far down the
37:39
grid indicates that he
37:41
wasn't going to be certainly a
37:43
first-day pick, but a second-day pick,
37:45
maybe. But I
37:49
don't know. That position was so overdrafted,
37:51
the fact that he fell as far
37:53
as he did was interesting
37:56
to me. I don't know if it was an out-of-sight, out-of-mind
37:58
thing, the fact that he couldn't test it. the way you
38:00
want to. I don't
38:03
know. But I mean, I felt like
38:05
there were, I mean, you go back to that
38:07
game with the guy Washington took that that opening
38:09
game of the year in Orlando. And I mean,
38:11
it was a duel between the two and he
38:13
was his team was got the better
38:15
of it. Right. All right.
38:18
Defense was horrific, though. But that's another
38:20
story. Oh, my god, awful.
38:23
So the NBA playoffs,
38:25
it was funny, the other day we were
38:28
talking and you said
38:30
you know, you had producers and stuff talking
38:32
about the rundown and it was all draft
38:34
draft draft. And at some point you said,
38:36
can we actually work in
38:38
a conversation about a game
38:40
that has an outcome? That's
38:43
what you wanted to do. Can we talk
38:45
about games with outcomes? Uh,
38:48
yeah, that matter, right? I mean, I mean,
38:50
well, we can leave, we can leave April
38:52
baseball on the back burner for now. But
38:54
I mean, we got best of sevens going
38:56
on the ice and in basketball. So yeah,
38:59
we, you know, we got this. Right.
39:02
So let's start with the
39:04
two games to, well, the game
39:06
tonight that people are looking forward to Nick's
39:08
76ers. Who do you like
39:12
and who do you like to win the series?
39:15
I think Nick's in the
39:17
series. I just, I think the
39:20
one thing that's interesting and legs pointed it out the
39:23
other night that Brunson is spectacular, but
39:25
they're still relying upon him. It
39:28
is problematic. Um,
39:30
where it's Philly's got two,
39:32
two clear scoring options
39:34
in MBD and Maxi. Um,
39:37
but I, I just, I think
39:39
New York and they're clearly
39:41
kicking themselves. You just can't let series
39:43
continue when you basically got them dead
39:46
to rights. But I mean, they've got,
39:48
they got two to win one in the got
39:51
to have it. I wouldn't shock me until we
39:53
got it back there. Um, but
39:56
they, I just think the mix
39:58
are better. The
40:00
game last night between the Clippers
40:03
and the Mavericks, what is
40:05
it about James Harden that
40:08
just, you know that something
40:11
like this is probably going to
40:13
happen in a postseason game or
40:15
series? He was so godawful. A
40:18
game after, he was great. And
40:21
we've seen that with him before. Why is that? I
40:25
have no earthly idea. I mean,
40:27
I've been here doing
40:30
sports center in some form or fashion for more
40:33
than 20 years. And
40:35
in that time with Harden, whatever
40:37
you've said about him, you being
40:39
anyone out there, whether it was
40:42
high praise that he's great,
40:44
unique talent, a gifted scorer,
40:47
an impactful player, you're
40:49
right. And if you say he
40:51
disappears at the worst possible time and
40:54
is an absolute liability and
40:57
has horrific shooting nights in
40:59
the most important times of the year, you're
41:02
right. It's amazing to
41:04
me how he can be all of these
41:06
things. It happened last year
41:08
in Philadelphia. At 43 I want to
41:11
say, it wasn't a game at
41:13
the Garden against Boston. And then when
41:16
push came to shove in the end,
41:18
he was horrible. And
41:20
Paul George was bad last night as well. I
41:24
don't understand it. It's
41:28
why the critics have all
41:30
this ammunition and last night just
41:33
adds another layer if you want to point
41:35
to exhibit whatever this is. But
41:38
as you said, look, the game before
41:40
when it was winning time after that
41:42
giant lead evaporated, he was tremendous. So
41:45
I don't understand the lack of consistency
41:47
in terms of his impact on these
41:50
big games. I don't know. Yeah.
41:53
And when it's bad, it's really bad. Like
41:55
there were moments last night where it looked
41:58
like he couldn't dribble the basketball. without
42:00
losing it. It was odd. Are
42:03
you looking forward to Denver, Minnesota as much
42:05
as I am and who do you like?
42:10
I like Denver just by default. I
42:12
think that the
42:15
two-man game they've got with Murray and
42:17
Don, excuse me, with Murray and Jokic
42:19
obviously, is
42:21
ruthless. Porter Jr. is such a great
42:24
score. I think
42:27
the defense of Minnesota is going to really
42:29
be stressed, but the defense of
42:31
Minnesota is exceptional. This
42:34
is a great coming
42:36
out stage for Anthony
42:38
Edwards. It was you that made the
42:40
point to me that I
42:43
talked about, I think, on the pod that this
42:46
is a guy that's a superstar. The
42:48
world's a big place. They don't all
42:50
listen to your pod
42:52
or mine or your radio show or
42:54
watch SportsCenter. The world at large that's
42:57
more casual consumers of the sport are
43:00
in for a treat if they're just kind
43:02
of learning about who Edwards is because he's
43:04
got it, man. He's got that everything
43:07
that a great player's got. He's
43:09
fun to watch, just the aesthetics of it all. I
43:13
like Denver just by default. It feels a little
43:15
early for Minnesota to get over that hurdle. Through
43:18
the years, there's always a bit of a learning
43:20
curve. There's always a bit of a process. When
43:23
Edwards was all with me the other night, I was asking
43:26
about trying to close out Phoenix. He's like, I
43:28
don't know. I've never done it. Don't
43:30
ask me about closing out. I've never done it.
43:33
I have no idea what it is. Now they
43:35
have. Now they finally won a series. It's always
43:37
destructive to me. You've got to win four,
43:39
man. They won a quarter of
43:41
the games that are required to
43:43
be champions. What's interesting
43:46
about them, NBA
43:48
fans understand that there's always this period
43:50
of time where dues
43:53
have to be paid and you've got to progress and then
43:55
you got to lose
43:58
and then eventually you win, but
44:01
a lot of those, whether it was Jordan or
44:03
any of the other players that have come
44:06
along that it took them a while, LeBron,
44:09
this team, the Timberwolves team,
44:11
is so good defensively. They're
44:14
an exceptional team defensively, and I just
44:17
wonder if that matters and maybe gives
44:19
Anthony Edwards in his first swing at
44:21
it a better shot
44:23
of advancing. That's fair, and
44:25
you also have guys that aren't new to
44:27
it and commonly go bare, right? You
44:30
have significant impact players at two
44:32
key positions who've been
44:34
through plenty of battles just not
44:36
at this stage with this group,
44:38
but that'll be
44:40
really interesting. It'll also
44:43
be interesting just from our businesses'
44:45
perspective to see a playoff advance with
44:48
no LeBron, no Steph, no Kevin
44:50
Durant, what kind
44:52
of numbers do things do. That's
44:54
nothing other than just interesting feedback
44:57
to me about what kind
44:59
of consumption the playoffs get absent
45:01
those older stars, but
45:04
eventually you're going to have to replace all
45:07
those guys sooner than later. That'll
45:10
be just an interesting bit
45:12
of information for the sports
45:15
media geeks out there. I think
45:17
Minnesota, by the way, is the
45:19
city, sports city, that's had the
45:21
longest drought in terms
45:23
of a championship. It may be
45:25
even participating in a championship
45:28
series because Washington broke that with the
45:30
hockey. It would have to be the
45:32
twins, obviously, that did it. Exactly. Thanks
45:35
for doing this. As always, I'll talk to you later. My
45:39
pleasure. Thank you. This
45:41
is a record, by the way. Just want to
45:44
have all the Kevin's listeners out there to know that when
45:46
he reaches out, we'll just do 15 or 20. Normally
45:51
about an hour, 10. You
45:53
say that all the time and it's true,
45:55
but it's not always my fault.
45:58
No, I ramble. I'm not even
46:01
saying you ramble, but it's
46:03
because you are excellent
46:05
and you get on a roll and I
46:08
think everybody likes to hear it, so I don't
46:10
want to cut it off with other people. I
46:12
want to cut it off much sooner than
46:15
letting it run. I'll try to do
46:17
worse hits. No,
46:21
I appreciate it. I try to do a bad job.
46:25
Have a hardened-like existence. One
46:27
really good appearance and the
46:30
next one not so good and I'll cut it short. Today
46:32
was excellent though by the way. There you go, damn.
46:34
What was wrong with Van Pelt today? He's just awful.
46:37
Just a complete, he was
46:39
just a conscientious objector. Well, you've
46:41
done that before. I haven't even
46:43
run those ones. Have I? No,
46:45
I'm kidding. All right, I'll talk to you later. Have
46:48
a good day, my friend. All right,
46:50
up next we will talk
46:52
about Tommy's Monday night event
46:54
at Shelley's Back Room with
46:57
a former teammate of Ralph
47:00
Sampson's at UVA. We'll
47:02
get to that right after these words from a
47:04
few of our sponsors. Without
47:09
the ones like you who work tirelessly
47:11
to keep things running, everything would suddenly
47:13
stop. Hospitals, factories, schools,
47:15
and power plants, they all depend
47:17
on you. No matter the weather,
47:19
emergency, or time of day, you're
47:21
the ones who get it done.
47:23

curveballs event, Tommy's annual
47:57

48:00
I'll be there, Doc will
48:02
be there. So many of
48:04
us will be there are
48:06
you'll get to meet perhaps
48:08
Mike Rizzo, Davey Martinez The
48:10
Nats are playing great baseball
48:12
right now and it's all
48:14
for a great cause. It's
48:16
in support of the Dc
48:18
Graze, a nonprofit organization whose
48:20
mission is to provide opportunities
48:22
for college baseball players to
48:25
develop skills and give inner
48:27
city youth a chance to
48:29
learn. The. Great game of
48:31
baseball. Tommy will be back from
48:33
he's trip to Ireland or he
48:35
gets back. I think Sunday night
48:38
were Monday during the day. I
48:40
don't know he will be there
48:42
to more on Monday nights Up
48:45
hurts in his chair overseeing the
48:47
festivities. Joining me though is somebody
48:49
who's very instrumental. He does all
48:51
the work or Tommy just puts
48:54
his name on it to to
48:56
a certain degree. Anyway, Chris spirit
48:58
is the General Manager. Of the
49:01
Dc. Gray's Inn is a good friend
49:03
of the show and is a big
49:05
part of the night on Monday night.
49:07
First volley, You know I've never asked
49:10
you about this. I may have asked
49:12
you about this, but you played basketball
49:14
at Uva. right? Yes,
49:17
that is. That is correct. I was
49:19
a young. I'm old enough. Get in
49:21
there done. That the nostalgia
49:23
Jp programs still existed society and
49:26
so did I spend. So yeah,
49:28
that's why did that more diveroli.
49:31
I just remember Mark yet seventy
49:33
you be a grad and they
49:35
would are grad assistant. My
49:38
first year there and ninety lady on
49:40
every was or. What? The grad
49:42
assistant more that was the coach of the
49:45
duty programs a very short season ten twelve
49:47
games. And. Then when the
49:49
season was over, there were a number of us.
49:52
Who are essentially I'm around his
49:54
practice players the most notable of
49:56
whom you probably remember it. Was.
49:58
Kinda needle and. Where
50:00
the same torn the same class as
50:03
we started out together than seven was
50:05
a lot better than me and he
50:07
and a scholarship and ended up becoming
50:09
a starter. And was
50:11
really the linchpin of the team and I achieved
50:14
for. That. Been rocked everybody
50:16
and made it to the final four. Yes,
50:19
so. Let me just be
50:21
clear on this: You were a
50:23
T V player. You are not
50:25
on the varsity team with Ralph
50:28
Sampson. just lamp leave raker, Jeff
50:30
Jones, etc. After.
50:32
Rj. The season ended. I practice with us.
50:35
are you did you practice him? An infidel
50:37
didn't get what we're We're essentially that. There
50:39
were three or four of us who after
50:41
the Jt season ended we got to. We
50:43
were essentially practice players. That. But still,
50:46
that's awesome you were practicing with, you
50:48
know, couple of those years the number
50:50
one team in the country. Know.
50:53
That correct, they were a was on. He
50:57
was an exciting time to be there on
50:59
your sometimes they let us sit on the
51:01
bench, sometimes a lot of stress. Sometimes
51:03
we sat behind the bench. In
51:06
the to travel that often. Everybody
51:09
asks me if I got to to
51:11
go on the the dreaded trip to
51:14
Japan with the with the infamous last
51:16
two solid I and it was on
51:18
their return to the return trip and
51:20
of course everybody forgets that Virginia Beach,
51:22
Houston. In. Japan.
51:25
And. The last two some an odd was
51:27
was essentially the boondoggle part of the
51:30
trip. Where. They stopped
51:32
in Hawaii. And
51:34
and pick up this game ha and
51:37
and eight and ended up losing but
51:39
everybody remembers the Sharma not loss and
51:41
when no one remembers the the victory
51:44
over a really good know guy louis
51:46
team. In Houston?
51:48
yeah, which he had it. With
51:50
with that on the Olajuwon
51:53
and now it's wrestler and
51:55
wait a minute with that
51:57
with so was that the.
52:00
Your. Ah, I'm with
52:02
that. Ralph's senior year.
52:06
Yes, that was the herbs. Eighty
52:08
Two, eighty three years. So that
52:10
was the year that Uva played
52:12
Georgetown at the Capitol Center. Correct.
52:16
That. Was though that was the battle
52:18
against you. it? Yeah. I. Mean I've
52:20
always had that was a massive event.
52:22
I mean you would never get net
52:25
in college basketball now nowadays a means
52:27
back then that game or I'm going
52:29
to guess was played in November December.
52:32
He was that the Capital Center was
52:34
a made from you know massive T
52:36
v Vanu. it's it's Patrick against Ralph.
52:39
probably number one against number two or
52:41
something like that. I forget what they'd
52:43
The teams ranked. By.
52:47
Yeah, we earned or we were. We were
52:49
number one at that time, and in Georgetown
52:51
was certainly doctor. Yeah. And.
52:55
I. Don't remember who won that game. Who won that
52:57
game? Will. I remember
52:59
that with region it was Virginia Virginia One
53:01
the day of his. Emotional.
53:06
Regulation is it doing goaltender the first
53:08
out of a it. Yeah,
53:10
he was trying to send a message
53:12
well like he did in the championship
53:14
game against North Carolina and Eighty Two
53:16
he he goaltender the first to the
53:18
Irish as a good yeah cities and
53:21
the and that was the year that
53:23
you guys loss to Sharman I'd and
53:25
you're saying he was on a trip
53:27
back from Japan. And.
53:29
Yeah. Correct that Virginia in Houston were
53:32
were paid a bunch of money. To.
53:35
To go play a game
53:37
in Japan and then the
53:39
stop in Hawaii. And
53:41
the ensuing game against some and I was on
53:44
the back end of that trip. God it. Wow.
53:47
One. Of the biggest upsets in
53:49
college basketball history actually means it
53:52
doesn't get the attention that say
53:54
you know, the eighty Three final
53:56
By the way, Nc State beating
53:59
Houston or. The Nova over Georgetown
54:01
I guess. But ah, at the time I
54:03
mean, you know Virginia's the number one team
54:05
and American. They lose to a team that
54:07
nobody's ever heard of and it was a
54:10
division to team, right? they were division two.
54:13
Three a division for going to get any if
54:15
they might have been any. They
54:17
might have been unaffiliated. It might have been in a
54:19
I. Demanded. Of had an inflatable
54:21
A affiliation I can't remember it with a
54:23
long time ago. The one thing about the
54:26
the eighty three feet. I
54:28
always liked to say that's the season
54:30
where Virginia won the national championship because
54:32
if you stay wasn't going to make
54:34
the tournament. But. Then had a
54:36
run in the A C C tournaments
54:38
and and purely cannon. Stole.
54:41
The ball from after at the post
54:43
and return to Ralph. That
54:46
led to the winning basket and then
54:48
they won the a championship that year
54:50
that qualified that puts tournaments and then
54:52
in the round of sixteen. We.
54:55
Lost when we get in that image
54:57
instead of later. he for the it's
54:59
it's a nice you know I guess
55:01
as after all these years it's somewhat
55:03
of a healthy way to look at
55:05
it. I mean the bottom line was
55:07
his arm. Nc State needed to win
55:09
the A C C tournament in Atlanta
55:11
that year. I'll never forget it may
55:13
be Uva in the final. Ah and
55:15
they get into the and suitably tournament.
55:17
And yes in the ah, the Wizards
55:19
around sixteen that sort of the Elite
55:21
Eight. Idea
55:23
was it might have been at all. It all,
55:25
you'll a date and in Nc
55:28
State beat Virginia again. Ending what
55:30
it was devastating. I mean, it
55:32
was Ralph's opportunity to win a
55:34
national championship. He went to the
55:36
final fours a sophomore remember when
55:38
you guys lost in North Carolina
55:40
ah, in Philadelphia in a semi
55:42
finals, But he was kind of
55:44
a foregone conclusion going into that.
55:46
Tournaments in Virginia and Ralph, we're
55:48
going to make the big run.
55:51
And. Win the title And the irony is
55:53
you guys went to the final for the
55:55
next year without Rouse. When
55:58
there was controversy about version. Getting
56:00
in at all? My recollection was, you
56:02
know, that was my fourth year. But
56:06
that. Kennedy Eagle and you
56:08
I had referenced early as you hadn't had
56:10
broken an orbital bone. And
56:12
die under He and his eye and
56:14
so he missed the beginning of the
56:17
season and we started out for poorly
56:19
and then when he came back. We.
56:21
Want a few games? I think we
56:23
ended up regular season seventeen and eleven
56:26
if I remember right and were a
56:28
sort of the controversy or at large
56:30
bed. At seventeen and
56:32
eleven. Year. Am but
56:34
it but ended up on. Beat
56:40
Indiana and around evade. It
56:43
was. It was funny. I was. I was watching.
56:46
A game a couple years ago immediate the
56:48
former Indiana player Dan Doc. It was doing
56:51
again right and and he was just killing
56:53
time whenever the might have been to Virginia
56:55
gaming and it was likely that we will
56:57
lose by a lot. so he was just
56:59
filling time and he was talking about that
57:02
game. That Elite
57:04
Eight game and.and he said no,
57:06
He he was quoting Bobby Knight
57:08
and he said you know coach
57:10
Night After the game he said.
57:13
We were prepared for us. l Wilson Winter
57:15
prepared for Rick Carlisle. We didn't lose to
57:18
them. We lost a kitten bleep and heedless
57:20
is that was affected intense what I think
57:22
the last. Five. Points.
57:26
Of. Again was he stole of all
57:28
Zola pass. Made
57:30
a layout, made a free throw
57:32
my com and net and that
57:34
sealed the game. so is. It
57:36
was interesting as you can actually just
57:39
fairly recently and the very tragically
57:41
passed away and our we adequate memorial
57:43
service for ten am back in
57:45
February. We're very
57:47
fortunate was over the N B A
57:50
all star break so require Lyle is
57:52
now the coach of the Pacers. The
57:54
requisite air by Ralph was there. ricky
57:58
stokes ah damn Merrifield, were
58:00
five or six guys that they were able
58:02
to come back and and Craig
58:05
Littlepage who was our one of
58:07
our assistant coaches and Coach Littlepage was there and Coach
58:10
Littlepage and Rick Carlisle spoke
58:12
so eloquently. And
58:15
Chetton was one of my best friends because we
58:17
started out you know as non-scholarship guys together and
58:20
then he was local here to the
58:22
Alexandria area where I live and
58:25
I think
58:27
the people that were far less impressed with
58:30
my comments than they were with
58:32
Coach Littlepage and with Rick Carlisle. But be that
58:34
as it may it
58:36
was good to see those guys albeit in
58:39
a sad circumstance. Yeah, I'm
58:41
sure. To the passing of one
58:43
of our teammates but but that's not why
58:45
you had me on. No it's not but
58:47
I wanted to just add one quick thing
58:49
because like these you know this
58:52
is in my you know
58:54
wheelhouse ACC basketball in
58:56
the in the 80s and that
58:59
year when you guys beat Indiana to make
59:01
the final four and I just pulled it
59:04
up because I remember you played Houston what
59:06
I did not remember is that
59:09
you lost in overtime
59:12
against that Houston team with
59:15
you know a lot of either one.
59:17
I'll tell you the plate I'll tell
59:20
you the plate. Yeah. So
59:22
we're up by once and
59:26
and they're trying to get the ball to
59:29
Elijah and Kent Nieblin is locking him up
59:31
and they cannot get the ball to Elijah
59:34
and somehow the ball ends
59:37
up in a very rushed
59:39
fashion because they couldn't run their play it
59:42
ends up in the hands of Larry
59:44
Michaud. Oh, he was a badass. Mr.
59:47
mean Larry. Yeah, but
59:50
it was not part of the play that
59:52
coach Lewis had drawn up apparently and he
59:55
rushes up a shot and
59:57
it's an air ball. Or
1:00:02
first year center. the that
1:00:04
ballyhooed recruit to is replacing
1:00:06
Ralph old employees. Holding.
1:00:09
Did not box out. Cadillac
1:00:12
Anderson. Got the airball
1:00:14
and started back to win the game
1:00:16
by one mile. Well
1:00:18
and in my mind it was in
1:00:20
Seattle it was easier. Yes Seattle. Final
1:00:23
Score: Forty nine, seventy seven in overtime
1:00:25
and the next scheme for used in
1:00:27
was the last Georgetown in the and
1:00:30
scene and we were Russia. Probe.
1:00:36
Remember right after Fred branded run
1:00:38
the ball to James Worthy? Ah
1:00:40
to be two years earlier actually.
1:00:42
Yeah. Club? Yes. Oh wow. What?
1:00:45
What? Was it? your what's more
1:00:47
was So what was it like
1:00:49
to be around one odds? I
1:00:51
think the greatest college basketball college
1:00:54
basketball players of all time. Ralph
1:00:56
Sampson. I
1:00:59
will tell you that that my my first year.
1:01:02
Of high school player on.
1:01:04
My father was in the military. I graduated
1:01:06
from high school. From. A Department
1:01:09
of Defense High School in Heidelberg,
1:01:11
Germany. Said a nice
1:01:13
letter back to school. I'm so old
1:01:15
that my recruiting tape was actually a
1:01:17
tape. It was a reel to reel
1:01:19

1:01:24
the time a similar neighbors were
1:01:26

1:02:06

1:02:14
Of our high school season for
1:02:16
the young, the University Sports Club.
1:02:19
Which the the Athletics
1:02:21
in Europe. Are very
1:02:23
very different. It's more like recreational
1:02:25
sports here. The United States are
1:02:27
not tied at all to. The.
1:02:31
Academic structure and so like
1:02:33

1:02:36
youth sports program that you might have
1:02:38

1:03:02
Either blinds, the lines and now and
1:03:04
then. was able to play for the
1:03:07
University Sports Club. In
1:03:09
their mans be which was. A
1:03:13
page Twenty. Twenty
1:03:16
Or Twenty One again. This is Nineteen Seventy
1:03:18
Nine Rose a while ago. So

1:03:27
Get this. Non scholarship opportunities A.
1:03:31
Threat to I apologize like my friend's
1:03:34
dog unit. sorry hanging out with us
1:03:36
so we got the dog. oh it's
1:03:38
I am. So
1:03:40
yet so to get a nice letter back
1:03:42
from Coach Larranaga? Within. The system at
1:03:44
a time. On Cosell.
1:03:48
Is that is very nice ladder and
1:03:50
if they follow through and I register
1:03:52
I have a pack and materials that
1:03:54
gives me information. About where I'm
1:03:56
supposed to be in my are exposed. To
1:03:58
do. and so The
1:04:02
backup center at the time is 1980
1:04:04
was a guy named
1:04:07
Lou Latimore and
1:04:09
Lou was a big guy about 6'10 and
1:04:12
he comes by my dorm to get me. Co
1:04:15
said I had to get you. It was some ball
1:04:18
workout and at that
1:04:20
point in time Lou Latimore was the largest person I've
1:04:22
ever seen in my life. 6'10,
1:04:25
260 pounds. And
1:04:28
then we go into
1:04:30
the, there was an annex called the
1:04:33
cage which is next to the university hall,
1:04:39
another building that doesn't exist anymore
1:04:43
and we were going to work out there and walk
1:04:45
in and there's Ralph and
1:04:48
I'm 6'4 and
1:04:50
that dude is a foot taller than me.
1:04:52
I'm looking like his chin,
1:04:55
his neck, holy smokes. And
1:05:00
on that team Jeff
1:05:02
Lamp was still there, Lee Raker was
1:05:04
still there. The Northians were
1:05:06
just big and strong. They
1:05:08
threw people around and I
1:05:12
was one of them. Anyway,
1:05:14
it was definitely like
1:05:17
you're not in Kansas anymore, Kevin O. Alright,
1:05:21
we got sidetracked there but that was
1:05:23
interesting to me and maybe some of
1:05:25
you. That's a great era of college
1:05:28
basketball and UVA was
1:05:30
front and center to that
1:05:33
period of time and Chris was
1:05:35
part of the team. Alright,
1:05:38
let's talk about Monday night. Six
1:05:41
to eight, Shelley's back room, 13th
1:05:43
and F streets Northwest. It
1:05:46
is a great night, one of my favorite
1:05:48
nights of the year. Tommy does such a great
1:05:50
job and Chris is such a huge help
1:05:53
in putting on this event. Tickets
1:05:56
are available at dcgrays.com.
1:06:00
ticket to the door too if you
1:06:02
decide last minute to
1:06:04
come down. But why
1:06:06
don't I let Chris kind of take over
1:06:08
and talk a little bit
1:06:10
about the event, maybe a little bit
1:06:12
about DC Grey's and some of the
1:06:15
auction items that will be available on
1:06:17
Monday night. Well
1:06:20
Tommy, as you know, is as
1:06:22
your long time partner is beloved
1:06:25
in the local athletic
1:06:28
community and the relationships that he
1:06:30
has both
1:06:32
among writers and broadcasters
1:06:35
and athletes and executives
1:06:38
and it's amazing. It
1:06:40
is really through the force of his personality
1:06:43
and his connection that he brings in these
1:06:45
things. And there's all
1:06:47
sorts of signed memorabilia.
1:06:50
I believe I've seen a Juan
1:06:52
Soto autographed bat. In
1:06:56
prior years we've had a
1:06:58
great relationship with Dusty Baker and Dusty even
1:07:00
after he left the Nationals
1:07:04
sent off autographed materials I would expect
1:07:06
there'd be more Dusty Baker autographed memorabilia
1:07:09
this year. Dusty's
1:07:13
son Darren actually was a Grey
1:07:15
he played for us. Dusty's
1:07:19
last year as the manager
1:07:22
of the team Darren was with us. I'm
1:07:26
trying to remember there was a Joe Gibbs
1:07:29
autographed autobiography. Yep,
1:07:32
a Riggins picture you
1:07:34
know of the run. There's going
1:07:37
to be a lot there for
1:07:40
people to bid
1:07:42
on and more than that it's just going to be
1:07:44
a great night. And
1:07:47
that's really the fun of it
1:07:49
is the ability to see you,
1:07:51
to see Doc, to see Tommy
1:07:53
interact with
1:07:57
those people. Now Kevin you'll remember and And
1:08:00
there are times when that interaction has a little
1:08:04
tension to it. You may remember a
1:08:06
few years ago when we had one
1:08:08
of the folks who bought a ticket,
1:08:11
Mr. Rizzo
1:08:14
was there and he bid on
1:08:17
an autographed mite trout Team USA
1:08:19
jersey, as I recall. And
1:08:22
Mr. Rizzo ended up being the
1:08:24
prevailing bidder. And someone
1:08:26
from the Peanut Gallery, someone who paid money
1:08:28
and was at the event appropriately, who
1:08:30
was nothing inappropriate about them being there. Shouted
1:08:35
out, well, I'm glad
1:08:37
you got the jersey because you didn't draft him. Or
1:08:41
something to that effect. And that wasn't me, was
1:08:43
it? No,
1:08:46
no, no. I'm playing an important part in
1:08:48
this story. You may remember this
1:08:50
because it was very, very
1:08:52
awkward. And Mike Rizzo
1:08:54
was a guest and he's not
1:08:56
going to come to the event if he's going to get heckled by some
1:08:59
guy. And
1:09:02
you were standing pretty close
1:09:04
to me in my capacity as the auctioneer. And
1:09:06
I turned to you and I said, damn it,
1:09:09
Cian, I told you no angry callers.
1:09:12
And everybody started laughing. And
1:09:15
you were a really good sport about it. And
1:09:18
you sort of put up with my nonsense as you do each
1:09:21
time you come to one of these. But
1:09:24
then when that person who had made
1:09:27
that comment to Rizzo, each time he
1:09:29
bid on something for subsequent auction items,
1:09:31
when I called on him and said,
1:09:33
$400 from, I didn't say any of
1:09:36
the guy in the blue shirt or I said, angry call
1:09:38
it. And the guy really kind of
1:09:40
dug it and he was angry caller for the rest of
1:09:42
the night. And
1:09:45
then it was actually kind of nice because
1:09:47
at the end of the evening, Mike Rizzo came
1:09:49
up to me and said, I appreciate how
1:09:51
you handled it. And
1:09:54
again, you want it's so
1:09:56
cool that through Tommy's connections
1:09:59
and the friendships he's in the
1:10:01
respect that he has the community that
1:10:03
he can get these people to come. Right.
1:10:05
But we want them when they come to be, you
1:10:08
know, not to feel threatened and not to feel like
1:10:10
this is sort of open season on it. That's
1:10:14
sort of, sort of crossed the line about
1:10:17
not drafting Mike Trout. Well, the
1:10:19
good thing about Rizzo, Mike is
1:10:21
first of all, he is fierce
1:10:24
and competitive, but he's also
1:10:26
got a great sense of humor. And
1:10:28
so he's always awesome on those nights.
1:10:30
I hope he shows up Monday night,
1:10:33
cause it's always good to catch up
1:10:35
with him. And, you know, actually now
1:10:37
that you remember, uh, you remembered
1:10:39
one of those, um, events
1:10:42
and stories from it, the
1:10:45
2019 event, um,
1:10:48
Davey Martinez showed up to
1:10:51
the event and the, the Nats,
1:10:53
if you recall that season, really
1:10:55
were struggling right around the time
1:10:58
that, uh, that he showed up
1:11:00
and I just remember,
1:11:02
you know, somebody saying something like, Davey,
1:11:04
this was really brave of you to
1:11:06
show up with the team having lost
1:11:08
like four in a row or five
1:11:10
in a row or whatever it was.
1:11:13
He had a great sense of humor that night.
1:11:15
And of course that was the year they turned
1:11:17
it around. They started, I think it was 19 and 31, something
1:11:19
like that. And then they
1:11:22
always referenced the 19 and 30. They're
1:11:24
always 19 and 30. Exactly.
1:11:26
But at the time, at the time of the
1:11:28
event, when he came, they were 17 and 28.
1:11:33
It's not, it's not, that's not what turned it around.
1:11:35
It was coming to the DC grades event that turned
1:11:37
the season around. No doubt. No
1:11:39
doubt. But an interesting story about that
1:11:41
night Kevin is that, um, that
1:11:44
Davey was there. He had, uh, Mike
1:11:46
Rillo was there, but, uh, Davey had
1:11:49
two of his nephews with him. And,
1:11:52
and as you know, at the events, I always
1:11:54
have a bunch of old
1:11:56
jerseys and tickets
1:11:58
and stuff that we give away. And
1:12:01
and I had given jerseys to
1:12:04
his two nephews Who
1:12:06
yeah, they're teenage kids who love jerseys and
1:12:09
they couldn't you know? I'm sure they have
1:12:11
their uncle has given them official MLB
1:12:13
jerseys, but you know, these
1:12:16
were cool and they liked them So
1:12:18
David comes up to me and says Then
1:12:21
that a jersey and thinking what the heck why on earth?
1:12:24
with the manager of the Nationals won a
1:12:26
DC Gray's jersey and he says
1:12:28
I Figure
1:12:31
I could just take it back To
1:12:34
the clubhouse and I just get the guys to sign of
1:12:36
course, you know, they're 1720 So
1:12:42
they win and Then
1:12:44
the next season is the pandemic shortened season
1:12:46
everybody sort of forgets about but
1:12:49
then Davey tell Stromi Hey,
1:12:51
you know, I got that jersey. All the guys
1:12:53
find it and so
1:12:55
That became
1:12:57
an auction item I believe it was last year
1:12:59
a gentleman bought that right? I think it was
1:13:02
for a significant for a significant amount. She was
1:13:04
a great fundraiser for So
1:13:07
a little bit about the gray is just to sort of
1:13:09
fill in the blanks for some of your listeners. Yeah, please
1:13:13
We we don't charge admission to
1:13:16
our games and when
1:13:18
we run our youth programs For
1:13:21
which are targeted for use in the
1:13:23
underserved areas of the community Where
1:13:26
we sort of give them the opportunities you
1:13:28
typically associate with the suburbs paid coaches and
1:13:30
the ability to go to tournaments and things
1:13:32
like that we fund all that and
1:13:35
we funded all through donation and
1:13:37
so the The
1:13:40
money that we raised through Tommy's event is
1:13:42
crucial not just to putting the college
1:13:44
team on the field But but
1:13:47
more importantly to being able
1:13:50
to help fund those programs for For
1:13:53
young athletes in Ward 7 and Ward
1:13:55
8 and in other areas where they
1:13:57
may not get the same opportunities one
1:14:00
of the things it's, and
1:14:02
look, my son was a Division I baseball player. But
1:14:06
we had the means to do the things that, you
1:14:09
know, send the kids to showcases
1:14:12
and having a pitching
1:14:14
instructor and playing on
1:14:17
a travel team and the type of
1:14:19
things that kids do to prepare
1:14:21
themselves to play collegiately. And
1:14:25
kids from underserved communities don't get those
1:14:27
chances. And what
1:14:29
we hope to do through the Grays is
1:14:32
to try and create a little bit more infrastructure
1:14:35
that doesn't cost so much for them so that
1:14:37
they can see what that's like and see if they
1:14:39
can generate, you know, a love for
1:14:41
baseball. Right. So that
1:14:43
they can go on
1:14:46
and get a chance. We actually had, two years
1:14:48
ago, we had
1:14:50
a young man who had come up through our
1:14:52
youth program and then had
1:14:54
gone on to play collegiately and came back
1:14:57
and played for the collegiate grid. So
1:14:59
being able to see that circle, that
1:15:02
cycle get completed. You know, a young man
1:15:04
who plays for our youth program, earns
1:15:07
a spot on the college roster, and then comes
1:15:09
back and plays for our collegiate team, was
1:15:11
just so rewarding. It's
1:15:15
awesome. dcgrays.com

thank you for doing this, but also
1:16:09
thank you just overall for your generosity
1:16:11
towards our program. You've been a huge
1:16:14
supporter individually and through the pod. And

you've given us. It means a great deal to
