It's time to go one-on-one with DP. Coming at you live from the couple Chevrolet GMC Studios. Here is your host, Derek Pearson. Brought you by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul. On 937 the ticket and the ticket FM.com. Boom. It's Tuesday. Rocky Russo on the road trying to win a Western Conference.

championship. They'll go back to back. Put the street camera out. I want you to meet Chubbs. Chubs is the, there's a local squirrel. And he's probably mad at me now because I did not leave sunfire seeds out there for him. He's definitely. Oh, he is going, look, he's looking. And he's, if, I don't know if he left any over from yesterday. But he checks in.

And Chubbs, Chubs gets well, yeah. So there were some left over from yesterday. So I'll put some around the base of the tree. But the guys were out, the landscape people were out there today putting mulch down. And I don't think they handled this side of O Street. They got 11th Street, but I don't think they got the O out in front of us. That's Chubbs property. They need a warrant.

Yeah, but and Chubs Chubs, Chubs will guilt trip me. Like if, if, so I keep sunflower seeds in my, in my, in my, in my, in my, in my back. Uh-huh. So if I run into him on. on either side, he literally will come, he'll get on his hind legs, he'll stand up and like, you know, bro, like, what's up with the seeds? And if I don't have them, it's, you get mugged up front.

No, it's like, you know, squirrel guilted by not having sunflower seeds, right? But you see how he working it, right? So, and then he'll go down and if you go down, uh, up O Street, he will find different places where, uh, he, there's three places where I will find Chubbs. And one is on this side with the parking side out here up front and then right down here at 10th and O. And you saw it Sunday. Yeah, it was funny.

You saw it. Nicole got to, because Nicole has fallen in love with Chubs. And I don't want to. I didn't want to tell her and had a name and, it's a big family favorite already. Just got a, the window can be distracting in that squirrel.

Now she's got a more sentiment. you saw you out there being chubs the morning on sunday well you saw chubs he was just looking at me like like like okay get to keep going like and he will tell me how many seeds are enough seeds so he got up he got up the branch he went up from the from the ground to the branch and then finally he he was getting higher like more more not yet not yet okay okay now you can stop so there are some left over from yesterday. He was out there yesterday so he can see what's going on. 402464-64-5-6-8-5. The Sarder him and text line. I do have a, a conversation with animals thing. I've got a little, Dr. Doolittle in me. Yeah, I remember, I can't remember what athlete it was,

but they brought a puppy over, and I know, I don't. Rishon brought his, Kenzie brought. That's what it was. You were ready to kidnap Kenzie's stock. I was like, I don't know, because he's going to get it back. Yes, she brought Daisy. Becky calls me the puppy whisper, the dog whisper, because we would do a lot of rescues. And that was kind of the thing. Now, you know, Becky has her type that she likes and I have the type that I like.

But ultimately, you know, it was always some, some puppy that had surgery and needed a place and needed somebody to love on it. But I've told the story before that when I got really sick, when I was in ICU and came home and was. bedridden for for six months pretty much that we had we had a rescue that literally i i don't think i'm here without without him really because he he he was recovering and he would just lay on he would just lay next to me like if if we were watching tv he would lay on me if we were um next to me and he would watch tv with me if if i was sleeping he would just put his head on me just and he it was

always like what are we doing today he was going through it too uh-huh and it was like what are we doing up we staying in bed we watching tv what are we doing what are we doing cool dog man's best friend there's uh that that's the problem though it's like i've had a really good dog and once you have a really good one though it is hard to get another well we've never had a bad risk i've never had we had we had one uh betley so we had so the first ones that we had together with buddy and buddy is the best

buddy buddy was the best buddy okay I don't know how to say this without offending you but if buddy was a person at the ticket he would be hers

okay sounds like a great guy right right like that he would buddy buddy was just what are we doing we good yeah that's the best people

like I don't need much. We can hang out. It's ironic. You say that out at the old farm. We had a dog named Buddy and it literally came out of nowhere in the middle of the cornfield. Big old paw showed up. It's the nicest dog though.

It's like, well, we'll call buddy. This guy's a great old dog. And then he took off to the cornfields again one day. It was a stray. But yeah, hopefully that dog's living his best life. It was an awesome dog, though. We had, we had Bentley who was the, Bentley was the personality of them all. Bentley. Bentley was so adorable. Bentley was the one that I taught to run the bases and slide.

I taught him how to run the bases and then I could just say up and he would belly up. Oh, you actually trained at the slide? Oh, that's awesome. One hundred percent. Um, and then, uh, but on the same token, he would, like, whenever I would turn the camera on, he would smile. Like he knew, oh, we're posing. And he would, he would, he would totally zoo lander. you didn't get that dog on the Savannah bananas. I haven't seen that. Oh, he was,

he was spectacular. And then, um, when I was in Utah, I had diva. Diva was this black palm who I taught to walk on a tiny legs. So when we would go on our neighborhood walk, we were going on our walks.

When we got to the street side where the cars could drive by, she would get up on her high legs and she would just walk down the street. And people would, she, she always got treats and people would, they blow the horn and diva was just like yep probably the best athlete in the dog i've ever seen probably the best name that you could have came up with that person you got a dog walking a oh a black diva yeah 100 percent 100 so it's we were we're dog people we haven't done it here

my thing is we had in virginia we had the room yeah like we we had a big dog run and we you know go through that and you go okay this is what we're doing so it it's just there and so when I was recovering, I would go on these long walks. And there was a point where I was walking 10 miles a day. Oh, this was, sorry for day. This is the blood clots? Yeah. Okay.

Yeah. And so I would walk. One, I had to learn how to walk again, but then I would, I would walk. When I started doing it, I would just get on this path and I would just walk.

And I would walk for 10. But then the thing happened is that, and I don't know if it happens to other people. But Cardinals would follow me. on my walk. Squirrels would just come out and walk along. Right?

It was just interesting. That's the D.P. thing. That's crazy. That Cardinals falling in you is awesome. Yeah, like they would, like, and you would see them going from tree to tree. Yeah, those beautiful birds. Right? And you just go, okay, those are, you know, somebody sending a spirit to me is what, what they would tell you. But then they would just chirp at me.

And like I would tell people. So then I'd have to pull camera out and record it and go, I'm seriously showing you that this is the craziness that is. And everybody's like, nope, that's, that's real, that's authentic, that's your spirit. That's kind of what it was. And when I was in Houston, the school that I coached at, when I first got there, when I literally first got to Houston. So they didn't really know me like that.

but the school, the woodlands is as it's named. It's this highly wooded, deeply thick, wooded area in north of Houston. No, like woods were, you'll find Bigfoot, that type of dance. Yeah, the woodlands. Like every, every animal is in the woods. And we were running a camp, so there's a camp, a basketball camp, Matt Bullard, who played for the Rockets and was now there on their broadcast team, but Bullard would have a camp in our school.

And so, but all ages were invited. And I was working with the young kids. So I was working with the, all the way up to sixth grade, maybe a little younger. And they had three gyms that different age groups would go to. We were going to the smaller gym, but there's a pathway. But this was a new school with tons of money. And there's some construction going on. And they're building a new facility, a new building.

So what happens in construction, things get unearthed and disturbed. And we literally told the kids, hey, stay on the path. Snakes are everywhere. All sorts of animals are there. So just stay on the path. And I forget what I was carrying. But I was carrying something and dropped it. And without thinking, I leaned down to pick it up.

And it hit full slow motion of realizing, oh, no, I've done the thing that I said not to do. And the one thing about young kids is you tell them not to do something and then you do it. They are never going to let you forget it. All right. Sure enough, I reach down and they're staring me in the face. Listen, Harrison, what's the sound you make when you're scared by something that you are totally unexpected? Oh, it's, it's like, what sound do you make? It's, it's weak. It's withdrawn, though. It's like in my, I just lose my voice. I don't even know if I can rep. If I get a good scare, it's a lot of like, it's the, it's the soul leaving my body, if you can make that sound.

So it was a copperhead. And it's, it's as close as this, as I am to this, my face as this microphone. And I made a sound that the kids may still be laughing at seven,

eight years later. And I, wah, right? And they see it. And all of the cool points that I had earned to that moment, done, done.

I went from being the cool guy to and trying to regain composure. And trying to gain their respect back after. Because you know they saw you and heard you. Yeah. At least no iPhones then, right? Nobody was recording you? No, there were their iPhones,

but nobody recorded it because it was just, one, it was a basketball camp and it was just, 10 year olds, 8 year olds, right? Yeah. I've never had a bad moment like that. The worst of it had was a mountain lion, but I was nowhere near real danger.

But you just see it and you're like, I don't know if I really want to go fishing at the creek today. We had, we had, we had, so in Utah, we had mountain lines that would come down. And again, this is when I had diva. And I would scare me more. Right. And I would let Diva out out of the back.

This is when I lived in a castle next to an amusement park. Okay. But the backyard was gated. And so I could let Diva out, except every now and then Diva did what Divas do. And she was like, I'm going to slide under the gate and I'm going to go party. And it would be fine.

But it's, you know, 3 o'clock in morning you let her out and she goes to running. And then you just, you kind of stand there half asleep waiting for, her to try not to wake all the way up so you can go back to sleep. And then she would come back, you know, finally laughing in your face. Like, you look really tired. Thank you very much.

And it's like, except for one night and they would. So I lived at the point of the mountain, which again. You're up there. So you're literally in their territory or back, lean and up against it. This belonged to them. Yeah. We moved into it. And there is a sound that a mountain line.

makes that when you hear it next to your trash can behind the trash can at 3 o'clock in the morning. Oh, that was right in your ear drum then. Oh, let me tell you, you, you reassess some things. And I had emotionally written off deep. Like, yeah, that he probably ate deep. Yeah. You hear it, especially when you hear that. Hey, you know, he, probably a deep. You know, except for then, I hear the pitter-patter of diva feet. And my fear is he, okay, she's alive,

but she's about to get eaten in front of me by this mountain line. And you know by the roar how big you think this mountain lion is. And I, it's a level of cowardice that I do not want to know that I possess, but you have to make a business decision. I don't big cats scare the living hell out. That's the one thing I fear in the woods more than anything is it's not the snakes and spiders. It's more the big cats. Like don't you, you just go.

Yeah. I mean, you've seen it with like those small house cats when they go ballistic and they claw on. You can't even get a small house cat off. You take that with a mountain lion and they're quiet. They're just expert honors. They're quiet until they want you to know. it's about to go down. If you heard it, it's probably too late.

It's about to go down. And to try to make that decision. And it's like, diva, you better come on. Like if there's, and this is where training matters. Yeah, that come signal to get back. That I need for you, I need for you to come and then be straight line on purpose because don't don't be cute. Don't play.

Don't, don't go and sniff everything as dogs would do. Don't go and sniff. Thank goodness that one night, Diva was straight line like Diva knew. Like, nah, dude, let's go on and get inside. Just straight, let's go on and get inside, bro. How fast he slammed that door. Oh, oh, and you, she jumped up on the couch in the living room. in the doors, you jumped on the couch.

And it was always like, did you know? Like, did you know? Did you know? And we both kind of look at each other like, we're both lucky right now. We're both. Well done. Well done. So there's a thing with animals.

It's just, I can't, I can't explain it. I'm an animal person. I don't, I don't. Just not snakes. Snakes and spiders. I don't. Spiders have gotten over with, well, I don't like him. Not a big fan of them, but, uh, yeah.

Yeah, just not. I don't. Snakes still get me. See, I don't even, like, we lived in a house, like the house in Virginia was wooded. There's, there's, like, it was surrounded by woods. The thing about the house in Virginia is that because it was real nature, Virginia nature, that you had bugs that look unlike any other bug you've ever seen. And I can't tell you in the number of years we live there, how many times I went, what is that?

Like what? Like you'd see a green bug with blue eyes and orange orange wings. You, okay, that's not even a thing. That's not even a real. What is that?

But then it makes it like a sound that you go, okay, I don't need to know. I don't need to know. And it was, so you pull in, there's a long driveway, you pull in. And you go, to the back door, but it's dark.

And when I tell you we lived, there's nobody around us. It's pitch black in the sense that it's pitch black. And then you would, the motion detector would set off a light by the front door or by the back door. And you would, your eyes would adjust and you would reach for the door, except for there the doorknob is a seven-inch bug that you, weren't prepared for. And it's looking at you're like, how you doing Harrison? Is that centipede territory?

No, no. This was like a mosquito fly combo. Yeah. I'm not about that. Bugs, I, that's where the Midwest is nice. Maybe that's where I got off the spear of spiders because bugs are just mosquitoes. Spiders, we had the

wolf and barn spiders get pretty big, but you see enough of those and get over it. There was nothing. There was nothing. about this. And it happened all, like, it would happen in May, like for the first time when spring happens and then it catches you're off guard and then you're anxious for the next three weeks. And then you finally exhale like, okay, it got me. And then it gets you again. Like, just when you let your guard down, it's like, hey. I've seen this one. Come on. Plus, we had a pool with, you have to skim it and all sorts of bugs.

Oh, where you're at. That's a daily tour. Right. Right. So, yeah, it's a thing. I've been fully, people humble me far less than animals. Animals humble.

Because it's just, there's, there's no logic to an animal. You, you want it to make sense, but, and nothing can, nothing can make my day like a,

like a puppy that I don't know coming up and playing with. it and nothing can ruin my day like a puppy i don't know who won't come up and i will i will walk here to the station mad like this day's gonna suck just because some random dog was just like nope nope not gonna do it so it's all there in case you didn't know one-on-one we go anywhere we'll end up ever yeah matri-guide dp didn't see that coming yeah we didn't know you didn't know outdoors with D.P. You didn't know that's what you were getting for the first segment.

We'll sort of break, come back. More one-on-one here on the ticket. You're listening to One-on-One with D-P, sponsored by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul, on 93-7 The Ticket and The Ticketfm.com. Welcome back. Appreciate y'all hanging out with us. Keep it simple.

I had to show Harrison, and my base running Bentley, my dog. Yeah, it was impressive. That was very cool. He does indeed slide. If you say slide, he'll go slide to first face. Pete Rose, Charlie Hustle, belly to ground. He understood it.

He understood the mission. He accepted. And he was, I mean, he was a smart dog. He was also, he was like a supermodel. Yeah, he was in, he had a little photo op. Yeah, he had a photo shoot. Like they, so there was a bridle magazine in, Houston that was using

puppy adoption and they were looking for dogs. And everybody said Bentley. And Bentley they put them in a bow and tie and took pictures with brides to be, you know, telling him to pick, you know, pick Bentley.

He posed. He knew. Bentley knew. Bentley knew. Bentley accepted the assignment. He knew what was going on. Lots going on in sports. shout out to Peter Cobalt and men's tennis for fighting their way into the NCAA tournament.

They finished the regular season in rank 40. They battled in the Big Ten tournament, but now they head to Texas, and they get to take on Baylor, who they met earlier in the year. They lost them for two, but there were several three-set matches that could have gone in a different direction.

but this is also a different Husker tennis team than it was early in the year. Yeah, and you got a knack right now. Maybe you just need to start doing that for all the programs. It seems like you pull up to the wagon. They go on a crazy run. They won't, you know, I don't know why you want. I mean, bowling was third in the country. Yeah, bowling events.

I'll be honest. I didn't know a ton about the men's tennis program. And I was driving in the one day and you had their head coach on. And I was listening to it. I think they had Michigan State coming up. and it was a really big one. And the next day, it was like, oh, pulled off the win. And then I was like, they're popping off more on my feed.

And I was like, okay, men's tennis here at Nebraska is kind of a big deal right now. These guys were pulling off some major upsets. So it wasn't the only one. They had a few upsets. First tournament, first tournament, NCAA tournament bid in 14 years. In 14 years, they had not made the NCAA tournament. And they made the tournament this year.

Matter of fact, it's this weekend. So they play Friday. down in Texas, of course, the disadvantage of being a lower seed, but going into a higher seed. And then, you know, playing in Texas where facilities and tennis players are all over the place. But shout out to them for that. It's also a big weekend for Nebraska softball.

Of course, Jordy Ball making a legitimate bid for player of the year, having a year hitting over $460 offensively, and of course, being serious. in the circle. She's been in, she's, she's been everything, and she's 20 and 5,

uh, in the circle. And I think, uh, the opportunity for them to, to finish well. And they could actually win the big 10, uh,

conference postseason tournament. And then if you play well enough and get, get through, maybe, maybe host an early round, um, here at, uh,

at, at, at Bolin, but, you know, that's been everything you can imagine. The men baseball has an opportunity. Yeah,

they've been picking them back up. There's some life back in with them. Two games under 500, but you've got Kansas State who you haven't had really good luck with this year. But you're here tomorrow night. So if you're looking for something to do, head on down to Haymarket and catch Husker baseball. To get on a run,

get above 500, and then let it be what it's going to be in the tournament time. Yeah. They just got Kansas State. in one game and they got a series with Minnesota, another one off with Creighton, series with Michigan, Purdue, and that's it. Yeah, their entire year, if they could figure out how to handle Creighton and Omaha, the entire season looks different.

Every year, too, that's always been a problem for him. Yeah. They did get, I want to say they got Creighton in their last one. They took a loss to him earlier and saved with Omaha. Yeah, yeah, it's necessary for them to get on a run, but it's not necessarily a thing that you have to have a great season, get hot at the end of the year and make some things happen.

Will Bolton Group, look, you put up a 20 burger. So you do know a way how to put up runs and that, I think that you can't expect 21 run nights all the time, but being consistent in putting up, you know, six or seven runs over the course of the end of the season certainly makes a big difference. So, but both of those programs

are at home this weekend. So if you're looking for something to do. And then ideally, the Lincoln stars don't come back to play until they're playing until they advance. If they win tonight and tomorrow. If they win tonight and tomorrow of series, that's a wrap. Yeah. If they don't, if they drop one of those,

I think it's Saturday, they'll be back at the icebox. Well, we're okay with them winning two and being done. Then we're on to the, we're going for the cup. Yeah. Not the Anderson. Yeah. So it's, it's, it's an opportunity. It would be nice to have that happen. So if you're looking, and then

over at PBA Saturday, May 3rd. Dynasty Combat has put together and this I believe it's 16 fights two former Huskers on the on the card yeah, 16 is what I think the number. I'll double check here but the Dynasty

Combat Sports talk about Saturday, May 3rd and that one starts 730. So here's what we'll do for anybody listening, 402, 464, 5685, if you want to go, we will give you a pair. Just text in. We are starting to run out here. So let's see. We got more to give out.

Don't get me wrong. But if we get towards Thursday, we will be limited number here. Yeah, we'll give out a pair. So we can do that. A lot of the conversation, it's funny too, that. after the draft and outside, when you get out of the forest, right, you get out of that vacuum of draft talk. But Moni Jones did a thing that I thought,

and he's one of my favorite sports talkers, because he often speaks outside of the general public. He's authentic in putting his ideas together. and he thought a thing that I thought was true all along and it just was great to have Bumani confirm that maybe I wasn't wrong being in that space, but that we give far too much. I've said on air that I give, I try to stay away from recruiting talk because I think it's wasted conversation. I have the same feeling for the NFL draft because in truth, it doesn't matter.

You don't like the grades right after the draft? Mock drafts don't matter. Mock drafts don't matter. It's just to get you to talk about it. Right? You read it so you feel more informed, but you're not held accountable for right, wrong, or indifferent. Yeah.

Right. And then the people talking about it, we don't know how to grade this year's draft. No, I was just going to ask you. Like, do you pay any weight at all into the grades right after the draft? Because you don't know. No. You don't.

Listen, to think that an athlete could walk into your system, know it in absolution, and then compete in it at the highest level against the best, it's so rare, it's so rare, that we could simply say, how long did it take Peyton Manning to stop throwing 20 interceptions? We understand what Eli was a 50-50 ball. We also forget that there were entire league set up to manipulate NFL teams into drafting or not drafting certain players. We know that families have always played a part in being able to communicate when the player had power, right, or precede power.

And often the team is wrong. Often the player is wrong and the family is wrong. most of the time the fan base is wrong. They will tell you what they want. But a fan is simply going to tell you, hey, here's the player available that I want to wear our uniform. Yep. Or play for us.

And I knew I can go back to being in D.C. when RG3 was being drafted. And there are people who went through the conversation of, well, Andrew Luck or RG3, either way, you're good. but from the rafters people would say no it's Andrew luck so the Colts were going one Redskins were going to to get RG3 you traded up to get RG3 and because of the culture in D.C. it made sense and people celebrate and it worked for a while there well it was fireworks you guys were selling he was playing awesome well but how do you draft what what's

the draft grade for RG3 if you're Washington if you ask me uh before the draft it's an A if you ask me after year one, if you ask me after 10 weeks, it's in A plus. If you ask me after two weeks of season two, when he couldn't put, he couldn't bear weight on it, oh,

hello, Kirk Cousins, right? Which explains why you made the choice to draft Kurt anyway. At the same time, you drafted RG3. I was like when the chief's got in the homes, was that an A plus up to year one? No, he wasn't even playing. No, he wasn't.

Alex Smith was a quarterback. So you still didn't know. Right. And so the majority of the conversation is really, and when you say projection, you have to remember that you're also talking about the person who's providing the content is projected. Right?

Because Harrison, you could only write about the NFL draft from your perspective. You can't write it and know all, every GM, every head coach and what they really want. And those guys arguably have the biggest say and how all this shakes. Especially the owners, I think this year is a real one. We can identify.

Like, they still have weight in a lot of this. How many NFL owners do you really know? Zero. Right. Right. And if you don't know who ultimately the owner is making the pick. Yeah, the general manager,

it's his job. But how many general managers do you actually know? Well, the average lifespan of what a general? Just over three years? I think it's just barely over. To talk to them and hear them tell you their thoughts on football, their thoughts on the system, their thoughts on the player, their thoughts on practice,

their thoughts on training, their thoughts on contracts. We don't know these people that way. Even if you really do know him, how much pressure is the owner putting on him for his job? Because he's going to change who he drafts just based on, I need to keep this job. And if I put together three losing seasons in a row,

I can guarantee you my job as GM is not here anymore. And who hired the GM? Right? Because who hired the GM will tell you, one, the culture, two, they'll tell you that's somebody that the owner would want to go play golf with. Yep. Right? I got to fly with this person. I got to stay in hotels with this person.

I've got to make business deals with this person. Do you pick somebody you don't like? Do you pick somebody that you don't trust? No, you pick somebody that you don't trust. that you can agree with on how things business is going to be done. And then you have to add in that a coach, a head coach. And how many head coach and GMs don't get along? A lot.

A lot. How many defensive coordinators actually get along with the GM because the coordinators tell the head coach what they need. What grocery items do we need? The GM tells you what your budget is. Hey, man. You can get prime rib, but that means you go eat pork and beans with it.

Yeah, and the defensive side of the ball, I'd imagine that's where the most beef comes from because it's always offense first for a lot of how they decide where the pieces are going. Defense has to deal with. That's the GM, though. That's deciding. There are certain GMs that are defense first.

How many of those are left, though? Well, I can't even think of one anymore. It evolves. And that's the important thing that when people are talking about the NFL draft, you're talking about mock drafts, you're talking about post-draft grades, just go easy. Just go easy because quite frankly,

we don't know. So I can't get my Bears in Air Plus is what you're telling me. You can. It's yours. Yeah, but I'll blow up in my face by slap a grade on it. I'm going to wait and see. How many times have the Bears had an A plus drive in your life?

Last year. A plus? Yeah. Like as they thought at the time, right? You're super excited about it. You'll roll out the red carpet for the season and you're getting your face beat in every other week. That is my point.

Yep. Is that the brown, all the teams that were drafted early this year, there's a reason. There's a reason. And five years from now, I still might be able to say last year actually wasn't a plus draft pick for the Bears, but I don't know right now. And if the same people are drafting in the same towns from the same ownership group, you're going to get the same reason. Just going to say it.

Just going to say. What if I told you Ben Johnson had a heavy hand on this year? Yeah. What if I said? You have a history of poorly drafting quarterbacks. Think about that. That, oh, I don't have to. I know it.

I know it all too well. That is a terrible list of quarterbacks, Jack. Not as bad as the Browns. We talked about that yesterday. Browns are bad. Saints are bad. Raiders are bad. Stop drafting quarterbacks.

Go get a free agent. We'll be back to one on a lot. You're listening to one-on-one with DP, sponsored by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul on 93-7, the ticket and the ticket FM.com. Final segment before. hands it over to DPE. More DC connections.

More DC. More DMV. There's more coming. Bernard Day's coming next year. Really? Yeah, he's going to do basketball covers for it. That'd be fantastic. Got to have more DC. I will say everyone, because Barry Thompson's,

D.C. guy, too. Hauss is. There's something good in the water over there. You know, not bad folks. Can't say the same about the, oh, shout out our guy in Canada. Turquite. Turk out, Dave Turk. Different water up there, but great guys.

Utah. With Turk and Evergrey and we had people. DC, you mentioned Johnny Holiday. They would come on and do, do bits for us. Yeah, it's Red Jenkins, the legend. Like, it's a thing. It's a thing. Plus Mark Canterbury.

Yeah, that's right. Mark Canterbury as well. The DMG. Okay, right. The Pacers are going to, man, it looked like the bucks were going to make a run. And actually tries to steal a game. It's tied at 73. The bucks windows dead.

It is brutal. see how bad that roster is outside it. You know when their next first round pick is, too, D.P? Seven years from now. Yeah, well done. Everybody has rights to all their picks. Well done. It's over for the books.

And they deserve it for how they did Boonells. Another one, it's like treat your people, right? Well, Janus is going to get traded. To the Bulls? Hopefully you get enough. Where does he want to go? He's talked about the Bulls. He's talked about big city markets.

He likes Chicago Sports City a lot. He likes the idea of Michael George. and the history there again this is all him just saying nice things about the city ask you can i ask you you just hit a trigger for me okay did you see the jersey for the bulls did you see no did you see the white socks bulls tribute baseball uniform slash jersey mlb is the one spot where i go away from chicago i'm uh cardinal let me tell you harrison i had to talk myself off the ledge from launching that purchased the moment I saw it. Oh, those are sick.

Brah! Those jerseys are fire. And I just went, I kind of want one. Oh, it's so, it is so hot. And I just went, like, literally, I was like, get it, get it, get it, get it. I was like, no, no, no, no, don't get it. But then I was like, okay, who do you get, right? Because you can get like a Bo Jackson because it's white socks, bulls. So you can get a Jordan or you can get a, like a bow, you can get a Frank Thomas.

You can get a white socks jersey in a Bulls uniform. And they even had the pants. Yeah, I got it up on the screen now. You can't see the pants on there, but you can't see just the pin stripes. Oh, I was so. I was, and the hat, even the hat. The hat was cool white socks on there. It fits it perfectly.

Even the hat. So I think I'm giving in. I'm thinking I'm giving it. Like I will wear that. Like I'm not even a Bulls or White Sox. Can I say this as well? One of the great underrated, underutilized jerseys.

The White Sox have a jersey that they wore in the 70s. It is a 1972 throwback jersey. It is white with red. numbers and red letters. And Harrison Arns, it is gorgeous. Gorgeous. The White Sox only wore it for a year, I believe. White with red numbers and letters.

My goodness, Harrison Arns. And they don't make it in big boy size. It only goes up to like 2x. I'm looking at it, right? Those are clean, too. Those bra. They're so good. they're so good what happened to our jerseys where we've just gone down

we got lazy it was they even that year they so you know how the eagles have the powder blue yeah yeah i mean the phillies have the powder blue with the red the white socks had a power blue with the red it was a lighter power blue with the red but sir oh that is a a a sportable jersey sportable i i tell you sportable i miss those days i you know we're not sponsored by Nike so I can say when Nike took over the pro sports jerseys the first big misstep again I'm not a big Lakers guy but to go from

gold and purple to banana yellow and purple what are we doing and then I always these examples it was Celtics and Lakers Lakers were blue Celtics were black sometimes it's like you know simplicity can look sharp and clean and Nike every now and then you'll get that sick MLB

Bulls jersey they nail it but a lot of times it's just you're doing too much like to try and if your baseball team has a sleeveless jersey, I will wear it. I don't care who I don't, I don't dislike any team enough not to discard their sleep.

Like the Roberto Clementi Pirates sleeveless, the Reggie Jackson A's sleeveless, sir, sir.
