Greatly appreciate that as well. And again, anybody that listens to the station, you fully know that any time I'm on air, we can go down a rabbit hole and that we will go way deep. We will go way deep. So the idea of these things taking place. And it's just, and we do conversational radio, and I will get opinions.

I've said a thousand times, it's not my job to have all the answers. I try to get to the right questions. And boxed, and boxed the thing we were discussing, discussing fighting in sports, vodka goes, yeah, it's not really allowed anywhere because it's kind of like assault.

Yep. Yeah, that part, that part. You know, they say that, you know, those who say it's necessary for hockey, for retribution's sake, for balance, for protection. But, no, checks are what, that's what does that. And being skilled in the corners of rank, that's how you protect it. They're checks that are legal, but they're also illegal checks. So they know that violence beyond professionalism is bad.

They know that. There are illegal checks. They're legal checks. There are ways for you to, you know what? You want to put a body on somebody who took a poke at your leading score? Okay. Solid check. Catch them.

Catch them against the board. Follow the rules. Don't break the rules and do it. Why? Why? Because people get hurt. People get hurt, injured, unnecessarily injured. And that's what it is. So that's where I was standing. Yeah, that wasn't, you know, it's the thing. Eric, you behave. I'll send you to your room. We'll have no box bashing here on this tech. Corbyn says, yeah, no fighting allowed on NCAA baseball either, but I've seen it. Yeah, but it's illegal.

I don't know any, I don't know, why would you give leadership to our best young men and women who would say it's okay to throw hands if things aren't going your way? Because if they're going your way, you don't, you're not throwing hands. Bach, you ever, it's sports. You see anybody fighting because they're winning? Not too often. No, no, it's, no, it's when things are going wrong. When things aren't going your way and somebody's chirping about it.

right but six and stones oh things aren't going your way hey there's a way to get better there's a way for them to stop them from chirping and baseball hit a bomb pitcher throw a strike right malice in the palace changed basket that's how bad that was because you went it to the stands no i don't want more of that that's silly silly. That's silly. I don't want, why would I want, why would I want fans and players fighting in a public space just because? No.

Bones, Bones says, thinking there won't be fighting in sports is crazy. Why? Thinking that there has to be, might be. Bach, help me. Is that thinking that fighting, that there needs to be fighting in sports? No, I mean, most games go on without fights. They're rules.

Every fight is punished. They're rules. They literally are rules. Why do people, this is the conversation about airports, right? That people think the rules, rules are really just a suggestion. Like speeding rules, the speeding signs, you're just hoping that I stay under 55. It's a, hey, don't drink a drive. Well, I'm a better drinker.

I'm a better driver after drinking than most. right that's just crazy oh my gosh we don't need fighting in sports we don't oh now again i think to the entertainment aspect that's what people are going they're entertained by fights and that's fine everybody's entertained by fights but that doesn't mean it's right tempers okay so bone says why because temper's flare you know how you define discipline controlling your emotions sticking to the plan

trusting the process right understanding that friction happens in competition it's your ability to work through the friction under control that's literally where greatness lives case important

I can't imagine Tom Osborne telling one of his players, hey, go punch that guy. Right? Like, I'm not, I'm not wrong in that, am I? It's a big assumption to make, but I'm willing to, I'm willing to go on that hill

that I can't imagine, I can't imagine Vince Lombardi. I can't imagine great coaches telling their players to go throw hands. Woody Hayes? He did it himself. What he said? he said well yeah and look what happened to him right he threw one punch he threw one punch he had a player

he threw he threw one punch and it was just like oh my goodness gracious right like i mean it's crazy a text is six nine one three says this imagine being blessed to play a game for a living uh for a college and and assaulting someone over it. Like, just throwing away your livelihood because you're emotionally immature and decided to throw hands into space. Right? Bone says this,

so does that mean they need to take away trash talking to prevent arguments? No. There's a texture, Bach and I disagree once per show. just for grins and giggles, we disagree. Never once has his words led me to want to throw hands with him. Why? Because I'm a grown-up.

I don't know. Pock may want to hit me. If I wasn't his boss, maybe he would have. I don't know. I can't speak for the man. It's not much of a fighter myself. But we've had some people here who probably wanted to punch me. And I'm fine with that. Listen, as a coach, to players, I ask them, I demand, I beg of them. And then I have to show them that your emotion, use your emotions to channel good. Use it for good.

Control your weapons. And your emotion is a weapon. Everything in sports, control your weapons. As an adult, control your weapons. Control your car when you get behind the wheel. Control all the things that you go through, all the things that you do. If you're working on a similar, control the machinery. Control your hands.

Don't get lazy and leave your hand out there and get it snipped off. Control the weapons. If you're going to, if you're one of the people, you shoot guns and you go, control your weapon. Baseball, you throw a baseball, control the weapon. You're sliding into a base, control your weapons. Basketball, triple threat, elbow extended, control it. You know that you can't swing it freely. You know that.

Control your weapons. Eric, that is a valid question. Eric has to go, are you a grown-up, DP? Valid question. Valid question. Listen, that would be a two-hour show. And if you ask my wife, that is an easy answer. That's a short discussion.

I do want to ask you because there is some sort of middle ground here, maybe. in sport, but just in general, is that, you know, sometimes it might be best to let brothers fight it out. Maybe not as parents, but you get what I'm saying. If you've been there, friends, whatever it might be. You're about to have a second child. I know. I'm not saying this from the parent perspective. I'm saying it from, okay, these guys have been button heads. I mean, live from the Bach basement arena. This is going to only end in one way. But I mean, similar to like the fan that was saying something. And it's never okay to go into the fan. I'm not saying that. But I'm, there is something to.

you can say everything you want behind your keyboard. Come, come, you know, come here on Wednesday and say to Anthony's face. And then you didn't see what happens, right? So there is something to like you, there is, should be repercussions or can be repercussions for your word. Yes. At the same time, like you just said, the most powerful people are people that are not moved by words. Their emotions will not change regardless what you say. You can degrade them, do whatever you want, say anything.

It's just words. It's not going to change the remote. motion. This is Roadhouse. What if he calls my mother a name? Is it true? Play nice. There's a middle ground there. Don't gave us to play. Play nice until it's time not to play nice.

And in the games, it's never time to play nice. In the games, you're competing. These are not, these are not your, these are, these are, these are competition. these are games and there are rules for how you you win them and none of throwing hands and spitting on people is a part of it none of it is a part of it you can have entire games right bone 67 says if a pitcher hits a batter on purpose is that assault yeah should be you you could kill a guy hitting him in the head yeah Yeah. Well, I'm not going to throw it his head.

Well, if you could control not throwing it at his head, throw a strike. Throw a strike. Don't assault the guy because the guy before, his teammate took you 4.30 and watched it go. Hey, make a better pitch. You did that. And Bob, the two brothers in the backyard fighting, let him work it out. that's within your boundary and your rule. But hey, if

the younger son shows up with no weapons and the older son brings a bat, you're going to step in. It's not equal and fair. Texas says, I think Anthony is adult that has control of himself and wouldn't bathe somewhat over words. Well,

I'll have to call of and ask him about that. He can test your theory. Come on down. No, no. Bach, that is the theory you want to ask in advance. Like, what are we doing here?

Like, right? It's there. Stephen, this is the text of the day. Bless your heart. He goes, so it's like Buzz Sawyer, Kevin Sawyer, with a chair shot in a chain and beating the heck out of him. He go, old school WCW.

Bravo! Bravo! Oh, family rules, right? This is Owen and Brett. This is like we went through this, right? This is Taker and Gain. We understand. This is Dustin versus Cody. We, it happens.

Bravo to that. Stephen, can I, I'm going to leave a ticket t-shirt for you. I love that text so much. Song versus the people often mistake me for an adult because of my age. Amen, brother. Amen. I am a, I say it all the time. I, I'm a fully grown man baby. Like I know that I'm silly and often, you know, you can catch me in the moment doing something silly. But the adult in me when it comes to how we do business, how we, how we engage people.

So I speak at camps all over the country, right? And whether it's James Hardin's camp, of Arisa, George Springer, Jose Al-Tuvie, it doesn't matter. NFL, NBA, NHL, whatever, that if I stand in front of those people, wow, in front of 400 young people, and I tell them, discipline is overrated. Anger is good for you. Throw in hands answers a lot of questions. questions. How long do you think I'd be in the business? How many, how long, how do you think, you think I would have coached for 30, 30 plus years if my kids were fighting? I'll say this

info, I told, and Bach knows this, that in all of my years, three sports of coaching, all of my years of coaching high school, in, in four different states, never once has one of my players been ejected from a game or gotten a technical during a basketball game, ejected from a baseball game, ejected from a football game, ever. I've gotten one, I got two technicals in my entire 30-year career. One was because my scorekeeper didn't put, we made the start lineup, we put it out, and she didn't put it on the scores table for the official half. That was one. The other, I fully earned almost because

I'm a grown man baby we're on the we're on a Christmas tournament in Pennsylvania right this is a pretty big tournament we leave D.C. to travel to Pennsylvania and first of all they're not going to let you win they're not supposed to let you win you're not supposed to invite people into your tournament to win to take the trophy and go home

but that's what we did we were dominant we're playing the host team and we're giving them the business and the official starts to inject himself into the game and makes a blowout game a little closer and I'm just having conversation right and I go I stand up and I just bach

I throw my gum at the trash kid just did you make it no no but but in his mind this is his chance hands. Don't you show me up. Don't you? Because I'm like, can you explain the call, right? Just explain, sir, Mr. Official, can you, can you, no, coach, have a seat. And I turn, take the gum, throw it at the trash can behind me. The trash can's 15 feet behind. So another piece of gum in, popped it. Two minutes later, Bach, another, another bad call. And I, I stand up, Bach, I stand up, I stand up, and he says,

Coach, have a seat. I ignore him, and I walk around, I walk down the, away from the play. I walk behind the bench and throw my gum into the trash kid. I pick up the other piece that I missed, I threw it in the trash. Bach, he goes, boom. Hit me with a tech. And the comedy behind it, because everybody saw it happening, right? It didn't affect the game, but it could have.

Now, was I being childish? Absolutely. Emotionally immature? 100%. Was I in it for the comedy? Absolutely. But I took the attack. That wasn't.

Don't throw hands. My players don't talk to officials other than the captains. The captains come talk to me before they go talk to the officials. And that's in every sport. That's every sport, every sport. You set boundaries. At no point are we having fight practice at practice. Okay, Dean Rye, get over there.

Hey, man, I need you to throw the right hand inside the face mask. I need you to kick him just below the athletic supporter. Kick him in a knee. Hey, hey, Johnny, sweep the knee. Sweep the knee. No. There are rules. There are rules.

I come from a big family. There are a lot of squabbles. There are a lot of squabbles that were affected, right? But there were rules to the squabbles. their stepdad would give us he had boxing gloves and they were huge you weren't going to hurt anybody but hey you you guys want to get the backyard

work it out work it out but for the sake of the game no nope nope nope not going to do it and yeah the gorilla bear says steel is wire receiver losing his minds color me shocked Yeah, it's got to be, right?

Like, and there's no testimonial to it. Like, we're not, I'm just saying, spinning on people bad, punching people because of a game bad, right? Like, just chill. Just tell. Do the thing that you're there to do. And if it costs, imagine if they lose that game,

if the Steelers lose that game, because a player isn't available. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there'll be some other squabbles they got to deal with. All right, Bach, we need to pay another bill when we come back. We'll get into Husker Hoops. Men's and Women's having a run. Talk a little Husker wrestling as well.
