Hello, Welcome inside, Happy NBA Finals Eve Hey, The Jason Smith Show with my bas friend Mike Harmon.
You know Tysher plays the Hobo drop. I know that right, You.
Know that it was instinct to Gannon Nicks Kraken. The Jason Smith Show with my best friend who wants to jump in all the time, Mike Harmon.
Here we go.
For over forty years, tire X been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive. Shipped fast and free, backed by Free Road, has protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tire Ac dot Com is the way tire buying should be. Well, we got lots of stuff tonight, right, We got Game one of the Stanley Cup Final, Game one of the College World Series Mets Dodgers coming up in ten minutes. Wait, we got a lot of great and oh, by the way, we made it throughout the long winter. I believe there was there was famine. There were there we couldn't get munitions, just like it was, you know in the eighteen am And we've made it to NBA Eve where we actually are going to get a live basketball game tomorrow night.
You've confirmed that.
Yes, yeah, it's not being moved or reported to July. Sometimes if the Knicks hire a head coach tomorrow, they will postpone game one till Friday.
Or Lebron has something to say. He posts part two in that offseason podcast that was actually recorded like two months ago. Boy, would they now, I welcome to town Luka donca it's June.
Third, Now, I think that would save that for an off day like the Knicks. The Knicks.
The Knicks has the head the headlines right now, right like the Lebron Nay said, okay, and we have four days in between games.
That's and we'll let that Lebron think how much.
Of the pregame show is actually about the Knicks coaching higher as opposed to the game being played.
All of it is about the next coaching higher all of it. Are we making a game show, kid, come on seeing instead of making it about the game itself. That's kind of in the lower lower corner, kind of like with the Rockets Knicks were all those years ago that you just making a game show with all the prospective coaches. Now here's how it's gonna open. Hey, welcome to the Kia pregame show here on ESPN. Right, all the stuff blocking you know t T is done now blah blah blah. We have a we have game one of the finals. Come up, join him right now, and then you're gonna hear.
I am gonna say this right now. I could coach the Knicks. I could coach the Knicks.
It would be the greatest, greatest, single, greatest.
Thing I could do.
I could coach, I could coach the next I could host all these new shows I'm doing.
I could run for president, I can. I will coach the next In fact, I'm just showing up the coach. I don't care if they hire me. That's how it's gonna open up.
He's full of enough hot air you don't need to blow blow smoke up his ass anymore. Well, I'm just saying those all the stuff, that's all the stuff that's happening. I'm just saying all the stuff I think.
He's got playing like he's doing takeovers all over the place.
He didn't need to try to do it here.
It would be it would be one of those like like local news things where where they they would they can open the show with and greetings, welcome inside the show. We're going to get to that big pregame fistfight between SGA and Tyres Halliburton that spilled over into the stands where members of their families also went back and forth at each other. Rick Carlisle got involved, and look, we'll have an update on what happened when Rick Carlisle was hit over the head with a crow bar. But clearly Stephen a what is happening with the Knicks head coaching search? Like that's how that's how we'll open tomorrow.
Now Again, it would be one of those things.
Go back to Batman from eighty nine, right where the Joker decides I just want to talk and pushes the mayor off camera when he's trying to give it.
Update on the city. That's kind of how you described it. That he doesn't matter. What's that's how it's that's how it's gonna look. Uh So again, we got a lot of big stuff. We'll give you our official picks for the NBA Finals. But I want to say, because this is one of those moments, there are certain times in my life where I realized, Okay, artificial intelligence is either gonna help save the world, because everybody thinks it's gonna end right, you know it's gonna end the world like it's sky Net's gonna take over. And when we've seen the Terminator movies, right, okay, ay, I is gonna get too powerful. And then I start thinking, hey, I's not really that smart because I read the other day about how someone wanted to look up why Ving Raims wasn't in Mission Impossible three, right the post on face I've said, Hey, so I asked Ai why ving Rams wasn't in Mission Impossible three, and it gave me all these It could have been a you know, a money dispute, it could have been a scheduling thing. And then the guys that I went back and watch, no, no, he wasn't it, So like, why didn't Ai tell me ving ramon do idiot?
Ving Raiams was in mission impasse. They didn't write the line of code to say check I am D.
Was in mission Apparently a I cannot access I am D needs the subscription. But so yesterday, so so earlier today, I was how did this come up? Earlier today? I was watching something on TV and oh, oh, I know, I know, and and the topic of scoagamis came up. Okay, right, like, so you know you usually get this in the NFL scores. You've never seen before in the NFL, right, so I toop a score of gomis came up. So it's just one of the things where I'm flicking around the television and and okay, you know, I'm you know, I get it right.
So I turned it off, and I'm thinking to myself and I go.
Boy, you know, I really, I really At some point I'd love to see a game and five four like like, that's a three safeties in a field goal, right, It would be the most odd game ever, right, more so than six' five because six' five would be one safety in. Three fields Like and i'm not telling, Anybody this i'm not saying this. Out loud this is not because usually, you know when, you, SAY oh i, wonder who oh you KNOW who i miss hasn't been in anything since the SEASON two a Diplomat carry, Russell right and then all of a sudden you Go to yahoo And It's kerry.
Russell here she was on vacation in con.
Last week and, you're, like okay all hands, ears yea so.
You know That ai.
Yahua's LISTENING so i didn't say this, to ANYBODY but i really want that five to. FOUR game i GO and i know it's never, been there, but man five to four really. Be something about an, hour, later okay this is just in, my brain just in. My brain an, HOUR later i Get on twitter and one of my followers has quote tweeted a couple quote tweeted a couple of things where, it, said hey here's the Anniversary Of penn state Losing to iowa. Six' four remember they remember how this game ended With with with iowa taking a safety to make the. Game six four and they're showing video from two, thousand, And four Right So it's Penn state and iowa from two thousand And four where iowa was leading six to two with like eight minutes left to go. In the, game nobody scoring and they took an intentional safety in the back of the end zone and they so they punted from their from, the you know the the, twenty YARD line which i don't know why you would take an intentional safety because if they drive down to, kick a fieldgal YOU'RE still winning si so you make it.
Six to.
Four but Whatever so and, i'm watching this of course kirk ference looks. Exactly the same and to, see that going how the hell does this come up?
In my brain was just because your chip brain was. Just fire chipped it's.
In your blood here's the Anniversary Of, a penn State A Random penn state iowa game from two thousand and four that ended. Six to four i'm telling you not back to what you were saying with that being, in your Blood right the halliburton shot and.
All that stuff something's. In your blood i'm TELLING you that i.
Am my, chips so wait as soon as, you thought it the neurotransmitter sent it along and it was.
On the interweb how are?
They tracking me give you that BIG knife so i can carve it out so they can't, track ME anymore and i drop it in the toilet or. Whatever it is get rid of. It right there all the blood coming out is pull it out like with a with a pair, of, PLOT right yeah i gotta get it. Out, of me wait it's.
It's in deeper than it's not service, Little oh no and, here's you know and here's.
WHERE we're at i think in this country WHERE like if i said it out loud and, IT showed up, i, would say, yeah of, course aid yeah? Who was listening Are you? Know, amazon's listening yeah of. Course, they, Are YEAH fine yeah. I did that that's just, a.
Normal day that.
Standard operating procedure but the FACT that all i did was think it. And here's, it, just think, OH you know i let might have five to four really be something six four, Six four here and it's not like it's college football season and something happening there was like the anniversary. Of this game here's A, twenty three no it was a twenty twenty one, years ago, sometime you know six.
Months from now? Was that game do you think there might have. BEEN a circumstance. I don't know you went in for a Medical procedure and pam sold you off for science because of the way.
Your, Brain works no i'm thinking so that you have.
To.
Have one stop what, Do. You stop, FROSTBURG i'm sorry i. Let's go on, they did it. Certainly didn't help they did, do a lot they. Did do it, that's playoff. Failures don't.
Either, syracuse, football, no no no the last Two years of. Syracuse's not showering we're on.
The up swing we're on the. Upswing, in football okay just let. Let's let's know it was a long lean time tap tat tat the brakes tur but we.
ARE we, are i mean, you're trending positively but there's still a lot of years.
Of RESIDUAL damage, but.
I mean WHERE i think i am now really is that like THIS is where i WOULD find that i was in a real life movie where somehow my consciousness got switched with something and there's gonna. Be like glitches and now you guys are Trying, to keep hey we can't let him realize he's self aware that he's in.
This new reality and and that's.
What it, is and no and here's, the thing is you guys would. All be normal, you guys know you guys would all be, normal to Me you And.

Over one shoulders it's. A difficult. Play difficult play you go back on a ball.
And catch it you go back on a ball, and catch it And People treat freddie freeman like you hit another Walk off in game One Of, the.
World series he had a fly ball because mentioned. None of that.
But that was, the, funny thing right is also The memes of Here's Pimp and freddie freeman getting out of the box where it should have just, been an easy, routine fly ball whatever happens tag up or. All of that instead it becomes a walk off and a grandiose Fashion against the mets in a couple of days that were Pretty Miserable for, new york sports.
And boom it just took on a life.
OF his own i did find it funny that, after you know the home, run flies out you see him. Rounding the bases they did show a shot of gansol and back, on the mound and the sage behind Him Is for. Forest lawn, cemetery, oh yeah yeah that's a that's.

UP to nothing i said that the entire playoff. Dry cidle scores sixty seconds into. The first game they have Just tied up game One Of The stanley cup Final with the panthers.
AT three apiece a really fun.
Game.
So far man i'll tell you.
This, is if no these aren't teams that are gonna get the average person to the Television because It's. EDMONTON and, Florida i like florida is the closest thing to a dynasty you've seen the last couple of years AND.
In the nhl but these.
Are the two best teams in the, game right now and you are to and this series. Is incredibly exciting it's three to three with thirteen minutes to go in. The third period this is gonna be one of those. Knockdown drag out i'd be stunned if this wasn't a seven game series That each team and This might be, connor, McDavid's time right like he's got to win one, At Some point but i'm. Telling it doesn't if this, Isn't seven games i'd. Be, really surprised well he.
Just would go into that laundry list of boy great players who. Never got over, but either way we've got six goals with. Thirteen minutes remaining so if we can get offense, to this, level then yeah it, cracks, the code right it's. The cheat code we need offense as much as we want to talk about hot goalies and whatever else that's not drawn ass is.
In the, seeds to watch you need a. Lot, of. Offense yes offense so we.
Are finally here by this, time tomorrow night we'll Be talking about game ONE Of. The nba Finals insert your game One Of The INDIANA Oklahoma city nba. Finals joke here but, GOING into this i looked AT ways, and i tried because you're gonna come out and, you're, gonna.
Say oh You hate the pacers because They.
Beat the knicks, first, Of, all yes secondly doesn't Matter because the. KNICKS are out i looked for ways to Think that the pacers can. Win this series. Can't FIND him and i think the only people that Are picking the, pacers, ARE saying well i want to, say SOMETHING different and i. Don't believe It but, if, I'M right boy i sound. LIKE a genius i Don't see how indiana can even get if they if they win more than a Game, AGAINST the thunder i.
Will.
Be surprised right we talked about this a couple. OF weeks, ago, i said listen if you put the over under for number of losses the REST Of the nba Playoffs At The oklahoma city thunder at two. And a half this is Going Into The. WESTERN conference finals i would. Take the under lost one Game In The. WESTERN conference final i Can't see the pacers even. WINNING two Games I Can't the oklahoma city's defense, is so good and you Saw when the knicks just tried to amp it up a Little bit, in game five and For most of game One they gave haliburton all. Kinds, Of Problems right the. Pacers couldn't score This is the knicks whose defense is. Not very good they fired the head coach because. Their Defense stinks oklahoma cities, defense is phenomenal, and they're deep, and they're young and they have a superstar that takes, over every game not every two out of, every three games like We See, with tyre's halliburton who.
Still has that.
Happen to him not as often As Does, with anthony Edwards but still halliburton's maybe a two out of every, three game Guy where maybe edwards is every other game guy in the playoff wink when he takes. OVER so DEFENSIVELY i really i Can't.
SEE the.
Pacers i can't they're Not gonna get they're not gonna hit threes like they did against the next because the thunder aren't gonna leave them open on the wing for. All, These shots right you're not, gonna get Great incredible games Game one where siakam shoots. The lights out in Game Two it's nen mard and get Game Three, It's, nie smith like that's. Not gonna happen this is a completely different Animal that the pacers are. Gonna TAKE on, and i mean, IF it's NOT i mean i Would say the, thunder AND four but i don't want you To feel like i'm totally Hating. On the pacers oh you're just saying that because You. Hate, the, pacers Ay yes, B i'm look i can they? Get, a GAME Sure because i I've seen, the, thunder decide hey we need to we need, a breather game like we've seen that, In the playoffs like we need, a breather game and we bring it back we win.
The NEXT couple so.
I could see i could see two oh three To zero the pacers getting a game And then the thunder. Closing It out so I'm going officially. Thunder, In five.
Yeah i'll give the extra six just. As a cheat.
But it's difficult you look, at the odds and there has been Some money on indiana as things have gotten. Towards go time they went from minus seven to Fifty at open now it's. At minus six fifty still implies an eighty seven percent Probability that the thunder walk away with the series Is spread for game one is nine. And A half but indiana with the ability to get the runouts that they do.
And the three point like it.
Becomes the If and now i'm building an algorithm with forty seven if statements to get myself to. That, end line right this guy has to shoot well from outside. On the interior Can You get ched holmgren in? Foul trouble early so he sits because that's a huge detriment on both ends.
Of THE court but i think it goes back to SOME.
OF that sga i pencil him IN for what i need twenty eight thirty thirty two and start. PUSHING from there a lot of what we've talked About Throughout the western conference playoffs leading. To this Point, And for indiana haliburton can have a passive game shooting right in the shoot, ball twenty times but that implies that his teammates are taking care of their business and they're hitting, shots with regularity And, Unlike the knicks thunder are gonna close out. On, the edges yeah right. On the, perimeter they're, long they're quick they get. To the ball you just watch the stark Difference between say kat at your Five Versus what ched holmgren does on. The defensive end they'll.
Go back to the huddle after. The first, quart hey wait this is not how, The last, SERIES but YEAH i, know, i know. Right they're better they.
Have to move a step right because Because coach usually, i'm usually okay like not touching the ball for the shot clock and then being WIDE open when i get the ball with three seconds left and.
Hitting, a three yeah.
Not gonna Happen Just that miles TURNER shot and i forget which game it was where he literally, grabs the ball he's in the corner and he spins it how he wants it and still gets the shot up before anybody comes.
To contest it, like that's Man that's rec. League, playing horse okay.
He could he could actually gotten, it, AND said hey i was in the, great shooting spot passed it back and said give it, back to me and he still would have been.
That, wide open.
Yeah just amazing but those angles. Get vaporized here both teams will get out, and PUSH pace which i. Think is fun both teams. With great depth so there's some similarities that we can draw, on and, say all right this is how they they compete and they fight with just can they?
Finish THE job and i don't. THINK they can i Think It's an.
OKLAHOMA city thunder i don't think it's a route all THE way through i think we get a, couple of thrillers but in the end. They're too much the other, part is this and this is just how things go, in the playoffs Is that the pacers played as well as. They possibly could there is no room between their heads, and the, Ceiling all right like we talked about, In that series halliburton had the game.
Of his life two times. In That series pascal siakam had the game of his life two times.
In that series smith had the game of his life.
In, that series Right you saw matherin, had two, games was like we scored twenty five points in four minutes, Off the, beach, like, yeah well yeah when when when you're, not playing. Defense it's easy they played the best. Of their ability they played to the top. Of their ceiling they're going to get a bounce in this series against the thunder who honestly have not really played not they still have some room. To get to they've, played, Really well right they played really well Against Against. The, minnesota timberwolves right. It took, them you know maybe as, time goes on We realized the nuggets were better than we thought because they actually sent them.
To seven games even though it Seemed. Like the thunder we're in control of that series all, the way Through but the thunder still. Has.
SOME room yeah i still don't think we've seen the absolute best. They can play but we have seen The best the pacers can and they're not going to continue That against the thunder. In the series They're just Not and AGAIN i'm just I feel Like i'm being, i'm being nice not. Picking a sweep did They Play the john halliburton? Card too early eight Seven.
Seven, ninety yeah yeah maybe maybe. MAYBE whole question, I, don't know well they really wanted to Beat, beat THE knicks.
Like i know.
IT was, imperative, i mean look you gotta use what's at your disposal. For EACH hurdle so i don't know what they have left. In the tank what's the Next surprise when clark comes out and shoots some, jumpers for well.
She's already on the sideline making brunts and faces while you know all the. Game's going, on but no but just, think, about, it like Okay, If, the Knicks hey the Knicks beating, The, celtics was hey that was. Our big Accomplishment like the Pacers beating, the knicks, again, it like hey that's, their. BIG accomplishment, Right i mean i'd LOVE to say i love to say that if they hadn't done, it last year. I'd, loved it well that's because everybody got. HURT last year i threw out the window, this year again and that. Loss is Just but but i'd love to See it because i'd love to SEE.

The day.
Problematic you know for, over Forty years tire rack's been helping customers find the right, tires for how what and. Where They drive Shipped fast and Free Backed by free road has protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tireraq dot com is the way tire. Buying, should be well when you hit what could be the shortest walk off home run in The History Of, major league baseball you get to be the play.

Shocks Out Of the red sox still win here two hundred And Eight FEET.
Red sox tv, on the call right Around. The pesty pole shortest home run in red and probably the shortest walk off HOME run. In mlb history and.
The greatest thing about it is it looks like a four hundred and eighty foot.
Bomb in the.
BOX score tomorrow i got all. Of, that one ah you kind of loft it down the line in a.
Curl d it.
That's this game we are really weird.
For.
Two Reasons right the angels got out to a four, To Nothing lead red. Sox fought back really. Great, game today uh but this game was marked because there was a near brawl prior, to the Game because the. Angels were upset couple of. Coaches were upset they Felt That the red sox first base COACH was. Stealing uh signals during, Last Night's game tyler anderson was pitching, for the game gave up like five runs and five innings, or Four innings and anderson felt that the first base coach was stealing signals and there was, nearly a fight like between coaches before they. Get pretty good it looked like, a, Youth game right.
He's.
Just cleaning up but it becomes this moment of he just picked. UP a batly i mean that that's that had youth game. Energy, all over oh coaches are, Going, to. Fight yeah coaches the, Players aren't fighting the coaches are. Going to fight now it.
Begets the discussion, there's no computers there's, no trash cans no anything in terms of stealing. And conveying signals what it's?
The?
Protocol here why?
Why?
SO mad Yeah i mean i'm sure it's an unwritten role of the. First base, coach can't steal. He can't report all he can say, is run.
Hard.
Run, fast now look so you had this crazy, ass stuff right and you also the other part of this game is that big part of this Game is that I'M pretty sure i know who the First Manager In major.
League baseball is it's. Gonna get fired It's Gonna, be alex cora the next next one. To, get fired yeah he is gonna be that guy. In the division you Have Had the red sox on a three plus year run of, not being competitive like they reached five, hundred last, year, was, like hey great they have one of the Best Offenses In major league baseball coming. In the season now they've had some injuries and, things have happened but they. Are not achieving and And You had alex corras say last night, after the game my team is.
Not.
Getting better right they lost another Game, to the angels almost. Lost today too they were down four, To nothing early, like you said we're. Not getting, BETTER like, before i Thought If the red sox don't pick it up by The, End of june cora is. Gonna, Get fired, today i'm like he might not make it, through the weekend like winning today may have saved his job for, a few days because you come. All The Disappointed the red sox aren't gonna sit here And suck for art's like two years of not being, competitive is okay you got you gotta show, me something here and they're not gonna fall completely out of it by The, beginning of july Especially with the yankees being. In first, place so again this win may have saved his job for a. Couple of, days but honestly if You Tell me alex korm making it out, OF the weekend, i would say if this series Doesn't, Go, Great, friday, saturday sunday yeah watch watch what happens well.
To show, you you know an embodiment of this is you made The Trade for garrett crochet Right With, the white sox gave up a. Bunch of prospects they've got a thing Now In the red sox organization Where They're smuggling roman anthony to the team bus in, the laundry shoot kind of Like He's a taylor swift here in. The laundry cart get him out to get him. Past autograph seekers he's the. Last guy standing they traded away a bunch of their top guys in their organization crochet this year. Thirteen games pitched he's got a one nine, to eighty r a one, point eight whip and he's. Five and four like the offense you thought was gonna. Happen Has not h there was the Subruna film of devers taking ground, balls AT third which i know was. Blowing, people's mind no he's, not playing third it's. Not, GONNA happen no i want to play third and All. THAT fight bregman i guess they got some good news that he'll be on the shelf a little less time. Than originally, thought but yeah it's. It's a mess and considering the rest of the division that was supposed to start. To rise hasn't it's truly a blown opportunity, in, that regard right because we Talked about the yankees going into the Series. With the dodgers you've got a couple of starters at the top of that rotation that, had pitched well and then you've got a bunch of also. Rans the offense, they're, Not healthy right. Stanton's not there eventually he's, gonna, show, Up Right right but toronto has.
Been A disappointment the orioles. Fired their, manager oh yeah that youth, the worst division the worst, division you Have and the rays. Are just sputtering so you have the opportunity to make some hay and. You're not right so all That opportunity means cora is probably under a. White, HOT microscope man.
I mean he may not make it if they if they, Lose, THIS weekend seria i mean he might. Not make it are they catching A red Hot colorado? And rottys team They have the rockies Coming.

Everything hall is very good voter. Here, we, are, yeah okay yeah go on to your. Little football question you, think you know.
But you know you're putting very good Players into The, hall of fame. YOU know that i mean.
IT'S great players i think fameless. Players in all And that's. What i'm doing that is my service. To the world that's. Where you get that's. What it IS that's. All i DO that's all i will ever be known for is The selector, for.
That's okay that's, Good right there and and a bunch of books that Are. Available, on amazon yeah and he once Got Threatened by. Tim, tebow's brothers. Right that's right speaking of, very, Good quarterbacks right are you buying.
All that's not ten tibo if you're talking to a. Very, good, quarterback, no, no no no.
We've moved on we move we. Moved on here so are you buying all? Of the hype how good what we've? Seen so far out? Of your Door sanders? At browns camp even though, It's ot As, I'M.
Sure, OTA i mean ota don't mean anything LIKE they, just i mean people don't understand like, he's playing hard, nobody's making contact nobody's planning. AT full, speed i mean it's great that he might, be looking good but this is like looking good at seven. On seven football you're supposed to. Look at it that's if. You're a quarterback that's what that's what. OTAs are about that's why wide receivers, always look, like you know twenty. MILLION dollar Guys I remember charles jordan's, who's you know fast guy with a, lot of talent all. SORTS of ability i. Remember watching him they're ot as one off season and you have No Idea who charles jordan really, is because, unfortunately YOU know his nfl career didn't amount. To that, much but god he looked. Great at OTAs i'll tell you, that right now like, a million dollars didn't do, any games consistently partly because. He was hurt, but you know that's just what. OTAs Are about, SO i'm sorry i don't care what they. Said about, him OTAs like let's see what happens when he's playing, in actual games even. In the preseason let's see. How he is it's we remember, like, Justin fields right i'm sorry to do to see you again because we just keep Coming back. To bear's quarterbacks but there are there are those moments like when, it's full speed how do you how do you react when we get closer? At full SPEED that's what i. WANT to see o tas are not.
Full speed drills speaking of a guy that did well in full speed drills and games, a year ago and now he is under. The microscope again we go to the Wonderful World of sam darnold getting the vote of confidence from his coach that is quote best days are.
Ahead of him do you?
Believe his?
Coach why not.
Or will he lose the Job Outright like matt flynn did many years ago in.
The, SAME city Hey.
I think donald's got A couple of i think that last year earned him a full season with another team to prove whether. He CAN play so i think that he probably gets ended. BY full, season i mean you're going to. Get twelve starts anything after twelve starts, and you know look, IS then okay i can see. You MOVING on but i don't think it's going To be like flynn where it was what four games then they were. DONE with him i think he's got a longer. Lease than that he's earned. More than that but in, this one time We've Seen what, sam donald is which is a guy, who's you know, invidible physical skill but doesn't. That fast enough it's sort of Like The whole mark sanchez thing when, and you know not To dump on, jets quarterbacks, either but no, not at, all. Of, course not no, that's the aim like not to take. Aim. Like that now, SOMETIMES you know i just don't see the, fields fast enough and sometimes they see it fast enough for, brief brief times but then, it, gets real right and then it gets to be. Another Level Up so sam donald during the regular, season last year and then you've got into playoff type of games like both ends of the season and, actual playoff camps where the speed takes another, notch up right and you're playing, against better defenses and you're playing, against you know people who are really seriously game planning, you for situations, and you know you regress again because you're not good enough to take. That NEXT step and i Think That's what. SAM donald IS i just i remember watching him as, a you know during practices with the, forty nine ers and you would see him and then You would. See Brock hardy and I'm not Saying Brock like sam donald looks apart from. The physical standpoint that's that he plays the part because he plays at a speed that can relate. To the game and that's Not to say brock perty is, a great player don't, get me wrong but he plays at the proper speed and he adjusts to things the way that they're, supposed to, work you know at. Real live action that's why he can't compete and gets you to a, player you know they've gotten that team to display offs a. Couple of time i'm just going To Do a super bowl once got him really close To Winning. That Super Bowl and sam darnold is the guy who is probably the. Second level quarterback he's In That, forever alex, smith you know, somewhere League Hours he's friday night As Good, as alex smith but somewhere In That.
Realm, ja cole now now THE big question i. WANTED to ask i understand if you you don't want to give us the answer because. You're protecting yourself how much time did You Spend on stefan diggs's boat with? Him last week where were you there? The entire time just a little, bit of time like? What WHAT was because i.
Looked for you. My wife's listening, Yeah you know, oh now suddenly oh my wife was listening?
Five minutes ago was my? Wife was listening everything is wonderful to say whatever, You, want to hey my wife listening was.
Five minutes ago it was, a very different. Very different question you talked About. Boats in miami what IS the big i Was Second. With dan, SOLIO he goes i don't know anything about. A bree boat i wouldn't know. What that is i've never. Heard THAT term but, i, was like Yeah that's. A miami thing That's definitely. A miami, thing So yeah defon diggs in. The, booty boat yeah that's gonna. Get you that that's going to Do well with rabel and with crafts as they're trying to. Rebuild their.
Image that's great and you know what's Gonna happen is jason's gonna hang out the phone walk and his wife's, going, to go. Oh.
Booty boat huh you? Knew that phrase how'd?
You know?
That good luck.
Good, Luck chachole no i've helady got a text message on THAT one said i.
Saw a video it.
Was pretty obvious it was all hanging right there in. Front of me Anyway From that saquon barkley on The cover of madden and all this. Other fun stuff is he serious, IN the hey i could just walk The Earth Like canaan, Kung, Fu comments.
Yeah i'm really. CURIOUS about that, I, THINK that yes, i BELIEVE that like I think he's i think he's. ANOTHER worldly. Creature i do.
And he could he could walk away, after next year like you could play this because, he said retirements me will come out of nowhere.
Could be out do you think he could do it?
After this year he could be that he's a different, kind OF guy like i COULD just see i could, just see, him you know. JUST say, it i mean he's made a fair. Amount OF money but i do think that there are some career things that are going to start to if he, has another year like take agains with sixteen hundred yards into the two k and now all of a, sudden, you're saying oh are You on A hall? Of fame path that's where you start to, have to say, he take one you want to do a, couple more years Get yourself Into hall, of fame discussion because right now.
You're very, good right now.
You're very, good right actually, You know what. You're exactly right he. Is very good he's not he's not quite In all in hall, of time category not after just one. Season OF that and i know he had the Moment, with the, giants but yeah like he's. NOT there yet i think that if he has, another big year they go deep, in the playoffs maybe even Win. Another super bowl you're talking about You're talking About hall, of fame candidacy and he's got to string together probably three or. Four good years AND by good i mean in, sixteen hundred, yards two, thousand you, know two, thousand all purpose we all know all those. Kinds of things so he's, talking about it and he, Could do it, he really could because he's a different kind of. Guy LIKE that but i think it's the, temptation to, say let me let's leave my imprint, on the game, because You know That hall of fame thing, is pretty cool and signing autographs for the rest of your life. To make money it's not a bad, way.
To go ISN'T he's On X at jason.
