[Assistant] And they found out that I was still pitching, so they signed me, and I actually pitched a couple of games for them, and then I pitched for, uhm, for a team in Long Beach in the California League and the Golden League, uhm, after that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's the biggest stadium that you've filled? What's your biggest crowd, single crowd so far?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But look, you're, Zach, you're clearly onto something. Uhm, thanks for, as a, as a baseball purist, a guy who's played it my entire life and take the game very seriously. I, when I first heard of this, I thought, oh God, don't, don't gimmick up the game. You have improved the game. You've made it fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the thing of it is, and this is what reminded me of it as I was seeing all these clips, I just remember thinking,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, a supremely athletic and gifted player making an unbelievable play in a crazy moment. And I can appreciate that, but I don't open that clip and laugh hysterically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I open the banana clips, I'm still able to appreciate the baseball and the skill, but I'm laughing every time I open your clip. I also host a five o'clock show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] at NBC here in Cleveland and I work you guys into that show all the time. I'm always seeing clips on social media and now my producer is a fan. My executive producer is a fan. My executive producer somehow got tickets. So she's going to one of the games in Akron. My producer and I are like, how did you get tickets and we don't have tickets?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we're all fans now. And by the way, they're both women who aren't baseball fans. And that's the beauty of this. You're using baseball as the conduit, but you're bringing fans from outside of the traditional baseball circle into the sport. And no one can be upset about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's really a study in successful marketing. I think that's the true story here. Anthony, our producer today has a question for you. Anthony, what do you got?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love how the plan was, I think the plan was to make the cup finals in a couple of years and then to win it in like six, maybe make the playoffs in three and win it in six or whatever, whatever the plan was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and it ends up, you know, finals in one, uh, champions in five. It is, it's a model organization for how you should start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] sports team in a city. Zach, thanks a lot. If you need a soft throwing righty that's got an array of pitches, I'll throw anything at any point in the count.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, thanks Zach. Great man. Zach, we appreciate you man. Thanks guys. Thanks a lot. Talk soon guys. Bye. It is, it is a major success story for marketing. I'm pissed off I can't go now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm dead upset that I can't go. It's an event? I mean they sold out both nights in Akron.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they've been sold out for months. We tried to get tickets three months ago, I'm saying. And I told our executive producer, I said, let's do a group trip. You know, a bunch of us from work will go, we'll get tickets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She says, yeah, it's a great idea. She went on the website, she's like, it's showing that both games are sold out. Is that possible? And I'm like, no, that's gotta be a mistake. It's not a mistake. I, I really wanna go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna see them play bigger venues. So right now they're playing AAA, AAA stadiums which tend to be in the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I like that. Like seventh inning stretch, uh, like the Cavs at halftime, they have a little show. It'd be really hard because you only have two minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a lot of their fan base don't consider themselves diehard baseball fans, but the other thing we didn't get to touch on in this interview, but was talked about in the real sports piece, the games have a time limit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe it's 90 minutes or two hours. So at two hours, the game's over. It's like soccer. It starts at seven o'clock. And how many innings can you play? And at nine o'clock, who's on top? And that's then the game's decided. And I think that's good because obviously Major League Baseball has made a huge effort to cut the time of their game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You want to know that your entertainment block is going to be a defined period of time. You can't go, like these extra inning games that go four hours. It's not conducive to family entertainment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is just like a giant gupp, just a giant gupp. The Stefan thing, uh, I was furious at him because with the score 2-1 and a runner at first, he's not even holding the runner. He doesn't even look at him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the runner gets a great jump and swipes second base.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I said, he's not paying attention to the runner. This guy's gonna steal second and score the tying run. And it's out of negligence. On the very next pitch, he goes, he swipes the bag.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Base hit to center, game tied. That never should have happened. And then what really had me upset is I know it's, look it's still 2 out of 3. Yeaah. It's, you know, the Royals get paid 2. They're not a great team, but they, they, they have got, they've got players over there too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what really drove me nuts was Jose Ramirez clearly, starting at second base, took the game into his own hands. He knew the situation. Chapman's throwing seeds. Guy still throws 102. He knew that they weren't going to be able to get a hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he's in position now at third base to score the winning run. They had a lefty up, cause I thought about, man, if anybody would do it, it would be Jose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hosey, but I didn't think he was going to do it because there was a left handed hitter up. And the pitcher throws 102.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it might be one of the most improbable steals of home you'll ever see. I'll give you that. 100%. Because the righty blocks the view of Perez.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The catcher saw plainly out of his peripheral vision. Here comes Jose. So he knew to come out and come to get him. And Ramirez had thought about that in advance and made a Jackie Robinson type slide. And Sal is a veteran catcher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he might have discussed it with the third base coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I doubt he would do it on his own. Some players have the green light. Imagine Jose is one of them because he's such a great runner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aside from being, you know, having decent speed, he's a better runner than he is fast. And he might be a guy that has the green light. So I didn't listen to the post game because I was on the air from five to six. I don't know if he had permission, but it was just a brilliant call. Whoever made it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and now also you have to take into account who's at the plate, the likelihood of them getting a hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it wasn't good. So they just said, you know what, what the hell, roll the dice, take a shot. And you saw the slide. Can we show that play again? The slide was one of the best slides I've ever seen in my entire life considering the situation. He's stealing home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's always had this delayed hold with his kick leg where he brings it up and he almost pauses. You see a lot of Asian pitchers do that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He holds in that position and I'm sure Ramirez was doing the math while he was on third for the first pitch saying, I can do this. I can get there. And the fact they blew that, that's why I was so high. I went from being up here


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The winning line. It was just a little bloop down the left field line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I don't, I don't, I'm not worried about Klaus. I'm worried about Stefan. He's had some bad outings. And, you know, they paid him handsomely in the off season. I still like the deal. But it seems like here in the last couple of weeks, he's hit a few rough patches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, I want to say he walked one of the hitters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, which you just can't do in a situation like that. He didn't, oh no, he hit a guy. He hit a batter. He just, uh, he recorded a very long out on a deep fly ball. He just didn't look great. Uhm, you put it behind you, you've got very little time because they play an afternoon game today at Wrigley, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After five. So they probably were in Chicago by eight o'clock, got a good night's rest, day game today, night game, I believe, tomorrow, and then a day game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On sunday and then it gets really tough because you've got the absolutely white hot Atlanta Braves for a series over the 4th of july holiday and then they get Kansas City home. One good thing that I think sets up well for the guardians as we look forward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the initial question, will they be in first place at the All-Star break? They will. They're still the best team in the division. The Twins are starting to regress. Uhm, I think they will be in first place solidly by a game or two at least by the All-Star break. Uhm, and something to keep in mind, they hadn't played the Royals at all. All season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Until this series. They have nine more games against the Royals. Second worst team in baseball. So I think that really works into their favor. They got a lot with Detroit, a lot with Chicago to go, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's get him out of there while he's still got a great start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I saw his game the other day. He had a pair of home runs and also struck, struck out 10.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, he's, he is breaking every kind of standard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said it at the time and I didn't want it to sound like it was hyperbolic or prisoner of the moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I came in the next day and I said, he is the greatest baseball player ever. I stand by that. What he's doing is proving it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because he's at, he's, he is an all-star pitcher and he's an all-star hitter, all wrapped into one. He's gonna break the bank with this new contract. It's gonna be the biggest contract in professional team sports history in America. And it's soccer, obviously there's bigger deals in Europe. But I'm, he's gonna break the bank.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and whether you like it or not, he's not English speaking. He's not someone that can be a marketing superstar. Imagine if this was Frankie Lindor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Frankie could pitch like that and could hit like 16 home runs in a month? That extrapolates out to 80 home runs for the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not just the coach, but the coach of the defending champions and the coach of the one of the two teams that is going for the USFL title.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again this year. Skip, welcome back to the program. We had a lot of fun with you when you joined us in studio last year. It was a great deal of fun. Here you are again trying to make it two for two. You're, you're, you're ruining it for all these other coaches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are many with you here within Cleveland and Northeast Ohio area. I still find myself sometimes calling them the Indians and I talk about them on TV and here on the show every day. How do you like your chances?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As you know, I'm just a huge, huge fan of your father. I'm blessed to be able to say that we were coworkers for so many years at ESPN.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of my favorite things about Pops, and I loved everything about him, was how they could be getting ready to play Akron in week two of the season. And your dad would come to the podium in South Bend and he'd say, hey, now listen, hey, Akron, they've got the number one puck returner in all of college football. And, and you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You sleep on Akron and they're gonna get you. I can only imagine what you're telling your team because when you look at Vegas and you look at the line, you guys are huge favorites. How are you working some of your dad's magic? I hope you like what I did there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, I did. I got that. Because your dad is a great magician. What are you telling your team to make sure that they're not reading the clippings and they're not looking at the line and they're not hearing everybody say that they're going to win this game easily?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look at where the league is now two seasons in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give us your status report on how the league is doing, how Birmingham is doing, because I have seen some of those crowds in Birmingham. It's been very impressive. And I know they usually say if you can make it through that first couple of years, you've got a nice runway to success. What's your assessment of the league's grade card at year two?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know it's going to be a great game. I love off and when number one offense and number one defense get together, it's always, you know, which is going to be, which is going to come out on top. And I think that's one of these classic examples of that. Good luck, uh, in your effort to make it two in a row. And thanks again for coming on and you do have an open invitation. It doesn't have to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks a lot. Appreciate it. Great interview, great coach. He's had success wherever he's coached, just like his dad. Uhm, and he's just, he's a knowledgeable football guy. One of the things that I take from that interview, which is fascinating to me,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's more new faces than returning faces. Uh, that's a testament to Skip and to his coaching staff. They've done a great job and I tell you I've watched a number of games. I know you guys got to go to one in person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm playing baseball every Saturday. I don't get to see a lot of games, but I have caught a number of games and there have been moments where I'm looking at it saying, yeah, this is really high quality football. I think the American public is going to be okay with this, filling those football NFL-less months with a product that is matchable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like watching a bad pitcher and baseball game. Oh my gosh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, great, uhm, we have five minutes left. You wanna do a top five? You wanna do final takes? What do you wanna do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm, I'm, I'd rather talk about the weather right now than just like non-entity, non-story, Brown's topics that we're just trying to, you know, pull out of thin air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did see that. I'm so excited. Pretty big news. Columbus is one of the, you know, not to say the best city, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've, they've had a nice following from, I was at the franchise's very first game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Absolutely not. Oppenheimer sounds good though. Yeaah, I think it is going to be great. Uh, Barbie I won't look at. Yeaah, I probably won't get Barbie either. Fun fact about Barbie, and I only know this because we had it on our Channel 3 show, um, that the set is all obnoxiously pink. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was made and now there's a shortage of that paint because they bought it all up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they painted everything fluorescent pink on the sets of that movie. Alright, we're out of time. Have a great weekend. It's a super Friday. It's a super holiday weekend. We are here Monday. You'll be here Monday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps you would like to hear tips and rumors for two dollars?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow, those are some big ol' bitties. Man, oh man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fighting this fight at this point in the game is a complete waste of time, and you might as well skip it and just come with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clyde, back away from that stuff! Oh, but I have yet to complete my army! You have come to witness the power of darkness! Stop! Clyde!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dude, that's not Taco Bell sauce. Then why'd I find it at the Taco Bell?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or what? You'll beat me up? Ha ha! I've got another surprise for you!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now don't think your friends are gonna come bust you out this time, Craig. My name is Feldspar and I'm a level 6 thief and the humans will soon rescue me from this tower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh god dammit. Here they come. They're gonna get you, Craig. You're not getting out of detention. I'll be out of here in ten minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Damn you, Craig! Thanks for busting me out, kid. Who are you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do not know who they are and which god they pray to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It became very clear that the question of who was going to be let into the club or not was going to rely very heavily on statistics. It's a bit like your SAT scores for university. The question of how those are calculated is absolutely key.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And what happened, as so often in finance, was that bankers spotted a seemingly dull, geeky area that was incredibly important, that almost no one understood, and the politicians certainly weren't looking at, and thought, aha, here is a chance for arbitrage.

[Assistant] Hi, here for an abortion? It's okay, don't be scared. The first one's always the scariest. Take room A, second door to your left.

There are only two things I'll remember forever. The Alamo, and you this Valentine's Day. Do you wanna... ...disappear into the woods with me? I'm not gonna say it. But damn. Do you wanna climb a 14-er with me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Orale. Being my valentine will be all sick, huh? You wanna maybe have?

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you wanna maybe come see my doomsday shelter? I want you to be my hotdish, don'tcha know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I felt the spiritual prompting that you and I were meant to be together this Valentine's Day. Virginia is for lovers, so won't you be mine? Will you be the pepperoni to my roll? Hot is hot! And so are you. Roses are red, but Georgia is blue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I sure do love peaches, and I really like YouTube. Do you wanna get lost with me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since I'm the first state, I wanted to be the first to ask you on a first date. Happy Valentine's Day. I was first. Will you be the OH to my IO?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey Kansas, how does losing taste? I don't wanna talk to you right now. Kansas City's in misery anyway, you idiot. Kansas is literally in the name though. Please don't make me agree with you. I don't care, it's in misery.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then who should I be gloating to? ME! Doesn't matter anyway, just another victory for Titletown USA!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Calm down with that, New England Buccaneers. Aww, is someone bitter? No.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought you'd be used to your people leaving to come to Florida by now. Yeah, whatever. You can have my people, but you can't have my name. Are you cranky that Tampa Bay is a new title town? You won just one Super Bowl. That ain't enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, but I also won the Stanley Kubrick. You mean the Stanley Cup? Yeah, whatever the ice sport thing is. Hockey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, sure. You look more like Covid Town USA right now. Just because of the little celebration in the streets? Yeah, those pictures do not look good. Oh no, that's just what Ybor looks like. I meant because of all the people. Don't worry about them. And why not?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone in Ybor already has a disease. More like everyone in Florida. Loser says what? What? Hmm, let's go Bucs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, totally. What's in it? I don't know. I didn't read it. But I've heard great things. Is there someone that can tell me about it? Uh, yeaah. Anna Eskamani is here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry, who are you? She's my assistant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's there to protest? The lines at Disney? What do you mean by criminalize?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but if we just shoot anyone that looks like they might commit a crime, then there won't be any crime. Except murder. Murder is self-defined. It most definitely


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's literally never boring here. Okay, so if someone wanted to stop this bill from passing, how would they do that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tend to agree with that, I think, just because of the age and contract with Wembee. I don't think there's anyone in the league that they've traded before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Streaks go both hot and cold. When a couple guys go cold, it can be contagious. When a couple guys get hot, it sort of relieves the pressure off everybody else, and that's also contagious. I mean, the Royals are a triple 18.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That certainly helps. Like hey, you gotta feast when you can. And baseball is such a wonky game that stuff like this sometimes emerges out of nowhere. We saw it last night with Domingo Hermann. He got absolutely destroyed in his last two starts and throws a perfect game last night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, that's the nature of baseball. And so a team that's struggling can all of a sudden have an explosion and put it all together. You know, I don't think this means that this is the launching point for the guardians to go on some power tear, but certainly it was, it was long overdue and it was good to see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Either Kansas Belly struck again or else the Guardians changed their name again. The Cleveland baseball team has again changed its name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's probably, I think it'll be right around this. Uhm, I sent, did we get that graphic loaded? Can we talk, you wanna talk about it an hour later?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I just did a quick Google last night and I actually had wanted, cause Bulls talked all year long about, you know, how bad the division is and has there ever been a team with a losing record in first place at the All-Star break.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna go quite that. This is from MLB.com and through the first 81 games, some awful records that wound up winning the division. If you look at, I mean, the Dodgers 10 years ago from 38 to 92 is, is remarkable. Go down the list just a little bit. You see the 2022 Guardians.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, 40 and 41 last year after, after, at the halfway point and finished with 92 wins. And it's just kind of funny. You know, I do think that the power is worse this year than last year, but a lot of the other things probably equate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it just feels worse because I think expectations were higher. There was no expectations last year. So for them to be 40 and 41 probably kind of felt like about what they should be. And then they got red hot. All Tito teams get hot in July and August and, and really turned it on and easily that could happen again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, with the power situation, what it is, I still have a hard time believing this is a World Series contender, but clearly there's the evidence that you could be...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 40 and 41 at the midway point and still win 90 games. At the all-star break, you could be hovering around 500 and still win 90 games. There's, there's evidence that it's, it's easily doable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think so. He's waiting on a second opinion. I think he's getting a second opinion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than, and really it's, do you have surgery or not? I think. Like I don't want to speak out of turn here. Uh, do you have Tommy John surgery? Is there a way to rehab this without it? And regardless, whether you have it now or a month from now, you're going to miss all of next year anyway. So you might as well take your time on this and see if it's really necessary or not. But yeah, he's not coming back anytime soon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but probably not this year. I think it's a lot to put on a guy who's made two career starts going into his third career start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's gonna have growing pains just like everybody else. He's gonna get hit around. They all do at this stage. He's gonna have up and down performances. But, you know, I mean, you gotta remember Mackenzie's in what, year three now? So it's easier for him to sort of be that guy because he's more established.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they are what they are right now, and this is a young rotation, obviously. It's going to be a young rotation, uh, for forever, really, with this team and the way that they operate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think they are going to rely heavily on Gavin Williams. We've talked at length on the show about, about Bieber and what's going to happen with him, and I still think they move him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's going to put even more pressure on Gavin Williams. It wouldn't surprise me if they go to a six-man rotation for a little while. When Cal Quantro comes back, it alleviates some of the innings off all of these young guys so they don't get overworked. But, uh, yeah, I mean, the future on Gavin Williams obviously is to be that guy. I just don't know if you can ask him to be that this early in his career.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it was part of it. They had to. They had, they had to. Number one, because you gotta make a decision on Bieber, and you gotta see if these other guys are ready.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Number two, it was time. They were, you can't, you have to have an opportunity in the big league rotation, but at the same time, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they're ready, you gotta, you gotta find room for these guys. And, and it's worked out, and this is how they do it. Like, there's another wave behind them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a couple years away and this is how that they, this is how they are able to maintain with the payroll that they are and be as competitive as they are is the way that they're able to produce this pitching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Day one where you have a catcher trying to learn all these new guys, they've all thrown to him. So he knows what they like to throw in certain situations, in certain counts. Now the scouting reports on the hitters change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in terms of the comfortability of the pitcher and being able to get into a rhythm, it's, it's such a delicate thing. I know it sounds silly, but that's why you have some pitchers that have had personal catchers because guys just enjoy throwing to, they, they know how pitchers think and they just are able to fall into a rhythm. So I think Bo having come up with these guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think most instances it's the catcher and pitcher calling the game. I don't think it happens very often where you get benched and put maybe in a situation like this where it's a young guy and I don't know the answer with bow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. You know, but a lot of times, again, when you work with a guy for a certain amount of time, you know what they want to throw. And I think it depends on the relationship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes if it's a young pitcher, you have to rely on your veteran catcher. And sometimes the other way around, certainly if it's a veteran pitcher and a young catcher, the pitcher is going to tell you what he's throwing. But I don't think that there's much bench involvement on, on pitch sequences and stuff like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, sometimes coaches will, a lot of times coaches will make the call from the bench. So, since you mentioned it, in the finals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first year Lebron came back in the finals, Blatt was calling plays from the bench.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would take the under. I think, I think Granky's ERA is right around 4.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. On a better team, he could have a better record. Uh, but I, I would still, I think four is probably where I would land on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like, you know, maybe starting to figure it out and string some things together. Obviously we need more at bats to see. He still, I think he struck out in every game. Little alarming, little concerning. Hopefully that can center control. He should walk more. The more, the more comfortability he sees, the more he figures out major league pitching. He'll be a guy who gets on base a little bit more than your normal catcher, hopefully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but yeaah, it's good signs for him that maybe he's starting to settle in a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It hurts your knees, it kills your knees. Just an incredible play. Unreal, yeaah. So they not only catch it, but they spin and still get to throw them out. So it's stopped! I mean that was a stop!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's probably a reliever. I mean, you've got a decision to make with Quantro coming back, but I have a hard time believing Logan Allen's out of the rotation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's no surprise. Yeaah. I'm still not convinced he's on this team next year. They could use him in a trade. That's a very manageable contract. Uh, but that's, that was, that was paperwork. That was, they weren't gonna let him, they weren't gonna cut him loose. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shooting, shooting, shooting, shooting, shooting. You gotta have shooting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Elite defense is not as important as shooting. You can win with average to even subpar defense if you have elite shooting. It's a lot easier to win that way than it is with elite defense and subpar shooting. And the Cavs just don't have any shooters that scare you. And that's the biggest


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Dean Wade should be a good shooter. He wasn't last year, whether it was the shoulder or the mental after Kevin left. He fell apart, uh, when, when they moved on from Kevin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you hope that maybe that's a guy who can sort of refine his, re, re, refine his shooting form. But they have to go out and they've got to get others. And, and while they've done a nice job of developing some guys,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've missed on the wings, uh, like Austin Reeves, Max Drews. These are guys who were trash heap guys who other teams found, discovered, and turned into really useful pieces who are now going to get paid. And now it's too late for where the Cavs are at because you can't take an undrafted guy now or even an Imani Bates who we talked about the other day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It takes three years minimum for those guys really to be useful on a useful rotation piece on a team trying to win a championship. While Cavs are in that window now, as soon as they made the trade for Donovan, they became a team trying to win a championship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So where do you go? Uh, you know, we can have that conversation probably here maybe today or tomorrow. I've been high on Dante DiVincenzo. I've kind of cooled on that a little bit. I was kind of poking around. I think Max Deuce is probably the best option for them in free agency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he's probably going to be more than the mid level. That's where a contract like Jetty could come in useful and a sign and trade type thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can't, if you have to overpay over the mid level, then it becomes a sign and trade issue and they don't have a ton of useful pieces to pull something off, but that's where they have to get creative. The problem with being capped at the mid level is there's a lot of teams that have the mid level. So now you have to sell yourself to free agents on what else can you give them. They clearly have a hole with the three, clearly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but they, they just have to find more shooting, regardless of where that comes from. And if you look at the list of teams,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what we're talking about here, right? They're trying to win a championship. Go back over the last 10-15 years and look at the starting small forwards on all of those championship teams. It's guys like LeBron, Kevin Durant, Giannis. The only exception where it's not a transcendent superstar type player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is really this last year with Michael Porter Jr., really good player, but not in the, obviously in the class we've talked about before. Andrew Wiggins on the Warriors last year, really good player, but not on that list that we're talking about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Absolutely. And Harrison Barnes back in the day with the Warriors. But what did those teams have? They had unbelievable shooting and transcendent players and Nikola Jokic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their backcourt is terrific, but let's be honest, Darius and Donovan are not on the level of prime stuff and prime play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, they tried getting a wing on the Nance deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there was no wing to go get. So they traded for Lowry Markkinen and they made him into a wing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't, you don't know, so Donovan fit perfectly age-wise with this Nucleus. He filled a need, a scorer shooter, like he, he is that, and that's what they needed. And he's certainly an upgrade over Colin Sexton, 100%. So I get why they made the move, and was it a year early? Maybe, but,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't predict when these guys are gonna become available, so you gotta go when they're there to be had. Would you rather have Donovan Mitchell last summer or Bradley Beal this summer? I'll take Donovan Mitchell over Bradley Beal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is the criticism. This is, this is the fair criticism of the Donovan trade. Of, hey, we could have gone to the playoffs and lost in the first round with what we had. Like, that's, that's fair. Would they have won 50, what, 51? Would they have won 51 games? Probably not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you win 43-44, you're a lower seed, and you get bounced in the first round, and then you don't have nearly the vitriol.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From fans that they, that they felt this offseason, but it's because you pushed all in on that move and still won one playoff game and lost in the first round. That's where it's fair for people to say, well hell, we could have done that with Colin Sexton and Lowry Markkinen. So what'd you do that for? Now obviously you have more in mind than one year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, that's where I think a lot of the hostility comes from. And I think that part of it is a fair criticism.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've tried, they've tried since LeBron left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, here's the thing, would you rather, they could have got Scotty Barnes, they could have drafted Scotty Barnes, third overall, instead of Evan Mobley, would you rather have Scotty Barnes than Evan Mobley? I wouldn't, I'd rather have Evan Mobley. I know Barnes won rookie of the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that's why the Raptors took him that high. He's a nice player. But it's the importance of the position is why Scotty Barnes went as high as what he did over some of the other guys. I'd rather have him mobility and that's where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, they've tried. They've tried every offseason to upgrade this spot. I think that they've missed


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, on the Struces and the Austin Reaves, it's so hard to find those guys. It's hard to kill them. Why didn't you find Austin Reaves? But those guys are out there to be had, and they have developed Dean Wade, and they have developed Lamar Stevens, and they have made them useful pieces, but when it comes to win, it's a difference in the regular season and the postseason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can, you can win with Isaac O'Coro at the three in the regular season. You're not going to win with Isaac O'Coro at the three in the post season. And that's where, that's where this is, that's the next step in the seven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was about to tell you about Imani. I've talked to probably people from maybe four or five teams now. No one has said anything good about Imani Bates.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a reason he was there at 49. Hey, hey, listen. And I'm not, again, I'm not killing him for the pick. Like, I get the upside. I get why they tried it. I'm just, if you have expectations for him to come in and help this team win this year, you're going to get your heart broke. If Max Trues. It took Max Trues four years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if Dean Wade can go back to the Dean Wade of the first half of the season, the guy that they signed the contract to thinking they were going to get, it will go a long way in helping a lot of the issues that we're talking about because he can shoot. He's a big who can shoot and you're not asking him to start and give you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of this other stuff. Icarus Levert is wildly inconsistent, but he is what he is. You have to sign him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if Dean Wade returns the player that you thought you were signing that contract, it's gonna look a little bit better than it does right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, Karras has kind of got the leverage on them in this and if you remember you go back to, it's sort of like with Tristan and JR during the championship run.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're going to have to overpay for what, for what his value truly is because they have no options to replace him. It's either sign Karis Levert or no one. It's not like you can take that money and spend it somewhere else because they're over the cap. And because they retain his rights, they can, they can offer him more. So really, I don't know what the number is going to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's, it's gonna be high, because he's really got the leverage on them. And if you remember, the contract Tristan signed and the contract JR signed were outrageous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was part of, it was, I think similar. Now it's not going to be, I don't know. We'll wait and see how the numbers shake out on this, but I do think Charis is back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he's a bench player. I think he should come off the bench. It's overkill with him in the starting lineup. I don't care. You start Okoro during the regular season. It doesn't matter. Uh, but it's really...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's two different conversations. It's regular season and postseason. It doesn't really matter what you do in the regular season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] at that spot. I know we just got done saying it's the most important position and it is, but they have enough talent around them that they can win 50-55 games again in the regular season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With Okoro and it doesn't really matter. What matters is the postseason and what they do with that mid-level spot and Laverte and then you sort of figure out after you see the whole season play out, then you figure out what's our best approach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I disagree that the Cavs are stuck in the middle. I think that's unfair for Chris to say or for anyone to say this team is too young and they have too much of a ceiling so in front of them with guys like Mobley and Garland does have another gear or two to get to. I think that's wildly unfair to say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even if Mobley doesn't reach the levels that I've thought that he would and they think that he will, he's still gonna get better. Like this team is going to get better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I would argue, if you get to the All-Star, if you get to the trade deadline next year,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're not gonna, they're not trading Jared Allen right now. But if you get, and I'm just spitballing here. Like I haven't put a lot of thought into this. I haven't. This is where I get into trouble. This is where I want to get into trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, I just, again, I haven't talked to anyone, it's just me spitballing. If we get the trade deadline, and Evan hasn't advanced as a three, cause I agree with you, I said the correction to this is if Evan can stretch the four, now you're not playing two non-shooting bigs together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's unrealistic to think he's gonna go, what was he last year, 28% from three?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's completely unrealistic to think he's going to go from 21 to 35 or somewhere in that range in one off season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just think if you, if you remove Jarrett from that equation, make Evan your center, and then you're able to put, now again, they have a deficit in shooting as it is now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But there's just a way to open up the floor because I'm only thinking about the playoffs. I don't care about the regular season. We're just thinking about the postseason here. You can play Jared and Evan together in the regular season. It doesn't matter. We just saw how easily it is to expose teams that don't have enough shooting in the playoffs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wonderful, wonderful human being. I know Z fairly well. He's great. He's a great guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the argument I guess I would make for not making major changes and running it back. And I know I just got done saying maybe at the trade deadline you have to make a move.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the Denver Nuggets did pretty well for themselves by staying the course and staying patient. They didn't have, and they were a young team that kind of grew together, Jamal Murray and Jokic, and let them grow together and figure things out. And the Cavs are so young.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they sort of emerged quicker than we thought that they would. They went from really, really bad to pretty good pretty quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and that I think, and then the Mitchell trade I think skews the timeline. And that, you know, they did to themselves and I agree with you. I don't think they regret the trade. I don't think it was a bad trade, but that certainly speeds up the clock. But I think that there's something to be said for, you just have to let this thing, you have to let these guys mature and you have to let this play out. Denver went from,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it was like 46, 47, 48 win team to 53 in a championship. And Jokic is in year eight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Murray's in year six, seven. So, you know, we're talking about Evan Mobley who's going into year three and Darius who's going into year four. We want it like that, but sometimes it just doesn't happen that way. I don't know if there's a question in there. It was just a rebuttal, I guess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you're training Dynamit Mitchell. But you're training Dynamit Mitchell. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you're recouping whatever you can for them. And you're going forward with Darius and Evan as the court pieces to this team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And possibly Jared Allen. And how many years does that set you back?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even set you back, you still got two really good pieces in Darius and Evan Mobley that a lot of teams around the league. With no picks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's impossible to know, but if you want to go the picks route, yes, you're going to get picks back. If you want to go the player route, you can probably get some sort of player back. I have no idea. We're trying to project something out now that's 12 months out, 11 months out. But if they lose in the first round again next year, there's probably a lot of people getting fired and Donovan's getting, and Donovan's getting traded because he's got a year left on his contract. He's not coming back yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Young players under contract that other teams would want or something like that, you know, maybe you're having a different conversation, you have other picks to trade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They opened the cabinets and they threw everything at the Utah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To get Donovan. There's nothing left. There's nothing left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And maybe they can swing a sign and trade for one of these guys who's going to be over the mid level. Maybe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they're just, they are so limited in what they can do. I just don't think it's realistic to think that there's a big swing out there for them to make because they, they made it last year and it's, and teams very rarely have the opportunity to make big swings like that in consecutive off seasons. It's just cause of the assets that it takes to get it done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've said all along, if Deshaun wants him here and he wants to be here, they're going to figure it out. This kind of tells me that I don't know if he's really high priority for Deshaun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's be honest about it. If Deshaun pounded the table and said, I want him go get him, it's going to be hard to, to dismiss that given the voice, the position he plays and the contract that he holds. So I just, I, is he better than David Bell? Yeah, he's better than David Bell. Like he can be an upgrade for a lot of teams in terms of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I'm kind of ambivalent on the whole thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a fair point, there's jobs on the line this year. And they all know it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can roll the cap year to year. Anything leftover one year rolls into next year's cap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These adjectives are very common in English and they often confuse students and learners in general. So please be really careful. Listen very carefully. Repeat after me. Try and understand the difference. Let's get started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Describe a person's feeling. For example, bored. I am bored. Adjectives ending in ing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Describe a situation or an event. For example, boring. Let's take a sentence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This film is boring. Okay. That's the event. It's boring. And because the film is boring, I am bored. That's my feeling. I hope you get it. Let's get a few more common examples. For example, annoyed and annoying. He is annoyed. That's a feeling. The noise is annoying.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are you talking about feelings, or are you describing things?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, again, we're talking about feelings in this sentence. Try not to get bored when you study English.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Math to you. It is confusing to you. So math is confusing to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a thrilled or thrilling roller coaster ride. Now in this case, if you think for a minute, can a roller coaster ride feel anything? No, it can't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's obviously a description. It was a thrilling roller coaster ride. And finally,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My mother is disappointed or disappointing in my English school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very well, guys. I hope you did well and I hope you understand the difference between –ed adjectives and –ing adjectives. Let's now review the sentences together and focus on pronunciation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now listen very carefully and repeat after me, please. Wow!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am excited about my new car.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow. I'm excited about my new car.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Try not to get bored when you study English.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a thrilling roller coaster ride.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My mother is disappointed in my English school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very good job, guys. Okay students, thank you for watching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope you understood the difference between adjectives ending in –ed and –ing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are very important as they will allow you to describe how you feel and to describe things and events and situations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Please keep practicing as this is still a common mistakes among students. So the more you practice, the better you'll get. Thank you very much.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so we're down. Hold on, hold on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was thinking about him. I mean, he single-handedly kept France in that World Cup game. Yep, Mbappe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've got number one in hockey. We've got number two in soccer. This is a landslide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a member of this chat, the chat is rarely right. Shout out to old Ben.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sorry if I startled you. This place would make anyone a little jumpy. We just spoke to your crew. They're on their way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My manners. I'm sorry, I'm Matthias. A teacher by trade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not really cut out for island life, I'm afraid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think you understand. You have been chosen, Samantha. This is a great honor for you. For all of us. Some were beginning to doubt we'd ever find you. But here you are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is not about what you want. It's about what you are. Himiko's blood runs in your veins. I think you know this, Samantha.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're searching for logic and reason where there is none. I made the same mistake once.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back when I thought ships could reach us and planes wouldn't fall from the sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This must be ended. Dimitri! Guard her with your life!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drew Good defi- Drew Holiday. Get- I'm gonna take Garland. I think I might take Garland too. Lamello Ball. Stop. Garland. Garland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I'm sure you'll keep trying. Yeah, but do me a favor. Don't ambush me any...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't need to know anything about my missions except where I'm going. Now I need to jump to Nar Shaddaa. Can you handle that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We need to rally the Emperor's enemies. And I need to find someone that can teach me the things that Vader couldn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. When I fought him, he said it'd be part of my future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Juno, we're gonna need to pick up outside the vapor room right now. I'm on my way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But wouldn't you rather die on your feet than drown in some cantina?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Koda, I... I think I found something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do not serve the Emperor. I'm here with Master Koda.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's Koda's contact.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Master Kota survived and he was sent to find you. Let's go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Senator Organa, Master Kota has sent me to rescue you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This whole planet has gone insane.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stand aside, girl. Don't make me hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do. I know what he's doing. Thanks for the advance warning. Juno, I've reached an Imperial drop base. Can you override the hangar door?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Emperor's enemies are still scared. I am just now earning their trust. If I am ever discovered talking to you. If they even suspect my past.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Credits, starships, imperial lives, they're all meaningless to Vader. Vader needed me to find the Emperor's enemies no matter the cost, and I did exactly what he wanted me to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He turned it over to Geithner, and he said, okay, here's how much you're gonna get.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, and then the rest of them, and I almost fell on them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know how much further we went before I was interrupted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By Hank, who said, your regulator is sitting right next to me. And if you don't take this money on Monday morning, you will be declared capital deficient.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My family went in the mountains. Daemon, gaemon!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She reminds me too much of another young Jedi who turned to the dark side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Open rebellion is too dangerous, Master Koda. I know I owe you my life, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We need weapons and starships and people with the courage to use them. I don't know how many others will stand with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, yes, there are other senators who have spoken out against the Emperor. But they will be hard to convince. We just need to show them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We agree that the time for diplomacy and politics is past. It is now time for action. If you are willing to lead us, then we will join your alliance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My wealth will fund the rebellion while Gaarm provides our fleet and Monmouthma our soldiers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Therefore, let this be an official declaration of rebellion. Today, we all vow to change the galaxy. And one day, the galaxy will indeed be free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You ready to clean the poop?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not a fan of nobody who fucked academics, so if you've been in this DM, bitch, I'll literally-

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he, he's probably like, stuck on his other girl. They just broke up like, five minutes ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I watched her suck your dick with a lollipop, and I was gonna do it, I mean a love clip. It was a popsicle. A popsicle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna do that, not that, but I wanna like suck a dick with a popsicle, but-

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like I went off about him like to it and then somehow he like flipped it towards me and like I felt bad for like him flying her out. It was just a flipped up situation.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You want me to die? Okay, you guys, this story has never been told before, but I feel like since it's been two years, maybe he got over it anyway, and they broke up. J Herbo, I met him like two years ago and he, I was on my, I couldn't fuck with female problems, but I still want to go to show- You don't fuck on your period?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, uh, Cardi Powell is Selena Powell. Uhm, anyway, sorry. What was I saying? Oh yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So anyway, he was like, yo, like, I don't give a fuck if you don't appear, like, suck my dick. And I was like, okay. And so I sucked his dick.

[Assistant] We got there, and he, um, Derek and him were sharing a room, and he didn't remember blocking me. He was like, it was probably my friend or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To this day, he has me blocked. So uhm, I'm sorry dude.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He counseled his shoe two days before that and I told the person, I'm not gonna say his name just in case he ever comes to Colorado, I told the boy, I told him, he was like, you gotta let me hit it before Kanye hits it. And I was like, I'll let my friend hit it.

[Assistant] Our first combatant will be Mr. Cage!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A challenge! Scorpion versus Cyrax and Sektor!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is he ready to bear such a heavy burden?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come forward if you dare! I will finish what the Lin Kuei could not!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Wild West experience in home mortgages was well underway. 41-year-old Essie Mae Hector, mother of three, agreed to a second mortgage at 27.5%.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were creating mortgages that we had never seen before. And they were being created faster and faster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We saw borrowers given loans that were greater than the value of their home. Home buyers were getting loans that had no income.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There were threats that the residents in Georgia wouldn't be able to get mortgages anymore because investors would not buy the mortgages in Georgia. If that were true, no bank would create a mortgage in Georgia.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right after Governor Barnes defeat in November, one of the top legislative priorities for the new governor and the new legislature was to gut the Georgia Fair Lending Act. I think it was about two weeks into the new legislative session and it was gutted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cities throughout the United States are seeing a rise in vacant and abandoned properties. And that's where the neighbors feel it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As neighbors, we're concerned not so much with the complexities of the subprime mortgage market and derivatives. These things we will hardly ever understand. What we feel on the street.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A neighborhood cannot survive long when it has a growing inventory of vacant and abandoned properties.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those tried to have me killed. You were speaking with the Thunder God. Your indiscretion has jeopardized my plan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The next match will be Cyrax. Versus Johnny Cage. What, me? Alright then.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To replace the current system of Ten. It will be held in Outworld. If Earthrealm does not win, Outworld will absorb it. But if Earthrealm wins, Shao Kahn will abandon his claim to it. Forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You may tell your fellow black dragon that I am very interested in your merchandise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will never submit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your time is over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mere speed and skill will not win this war, Cyrax.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't just take a little piece of you, it takes all of you and everything good in your life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, you can get the pseudofedrin at any cold medicine that has that ingredient.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's nothing about it that's not dangerous. If your container can't handle it, it'll explode. That's like a small hydrogen bomb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It'll blow a hole from right through the floor, right through the ceiling, and then it'll just smoke everything out, turn everything black in a room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Other people go inside and purchase these items for you in small quantities and you just take them around to all these different stores and you just buy one or two boxes, you know, and you have four or five people and you just go from town to town loading up the trunk with boxes of pills.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The best, the best monster I could build. It wouldn't be long before the word got out. Oh, I know where to get...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The bomb, you know, and pretty soon, it was gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can look back and see the total devastation of all that I created and the lives affected, the houses that I destroyed. There's no, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's no coming back from that kind of, of, you know, you can't fix that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And as long as you're caught up in it, it's, it's like a, it's like a whirlpool. Once you get caught in the current,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just go around and around and around and pretty soon it just takes you under.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta come through the other side. But the insanity's gotta stop somewhere in order for those things to take place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Spitting? Sticking out your tongue? Bet your mom is real proud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're coming with me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Never knew I had it in me


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think I'll be keeping my soul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, well, Earthrealm Defender is about ten steps above my pay grade. I see you doubt yourself, even after your victory.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where is he? Medevac hasn't been here. Perhaps he has gone to find help. Nah, he was way too banged up. Someone took him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A nine year old girl was brought to see me because her parents had been arrested for manufacturing methamphetamines in her home and she was sent to foster care. I asked her


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tell me about, uh, drug use in your family. And she said, oh, well my dad, he taught me how to cook it. And she described in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She described how woozy she felt when the cooking was going on. She described that her dad took her finger and stuck it in the stuff at the end and made me taste it. She described


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She described pornography running on the television all day long and sexual activity between herself and adults in the home when they were high on methamphetamine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What you did to Tad, waiting until he was almost dead, before telling him you knew Cathy was his daughter. It was beyond mean, it was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fine. I shall go and find your sister.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The spoils of his greed were divided between his sons, Basilius and Commodus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He lavished upon them great powers and responsibilities for which they were unworthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's clear! Advance!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Governor, I bring before you Oswald, King of the Britons. He has renounced this rebellion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shut up! He's an old friend of mine. We used to be in a bunch of foster homes together. That is weird. You guys almost have the same tattoo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know she's real cute and everything, but I think all of us making out a lot trumps you getting laid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not gonna save your substantial ass. It's what he said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How did these goblins progress in such a short time from bows and arrows to tanks and guns?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where are they based? And how can we remove the threat they pose? We must immediately mount an expedition to discover whatever we can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most impressive doctor. You call it knack, is that right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] About your mama. About your mama. My mother used to say that to me. About the only thing I can remember when I was a little kid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw something in here that really scared me, man, like really scared the crap out of me. Come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is what we're seeing coming from Mexico. Really good crystal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That amount of meth that we just got, if we had got that two or three years ago, we would have just about fainted. Nowadays, there's so much dope out here that that's commonplace. We get that amount off of one or two people every week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And listen, we love having Boogie here. This is Boogie's last show with us because afterwards he's gonna go pursue whatever's next. Hopefully it's a long football career in the NFL, whether it's acting. But if you guys need to see


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An insight into who Boogie is as a person. We're going to bring you inside the Maulers locker room after Saturday's win for Boogie's post game speech. We have the speech. We have the speech. Let's see. Take tag board. Let's see. Let's play it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give em away, let's give em away. Let's give em away. We are giving out 4 tickets each hour every day this week. So 8 tickets a show, we're giving away 40 tickets. Can I call in and get some tickets? Yea, of course. We're gonna give out 4 right now by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna give out four right now. And it's gonna be a little different each time, but here's how we're gonna do it right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two stipulations. We need your email, and you have to be able to get tickets via Ticketmaster. So if you fit those criteria, you can enter. Here's how you're gonna do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the YouTube chat right now, the fourth person to put the word boogie in the YouTube chat will get four tickets to the USFL championship game. Whenever y'all start, Anthony and I are watching the fourth person to put boogie in the chat will receive four tickets to the USFL championship game on Saturday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He goes on to say that he will be an immediate starter for the Cavs. And he asked, who's are their wings? And he goes, Kuro, who said his name wrong. Osman said his name wrong. Lamar Stevens. He goes, no, Omani Bates is going to be the starter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so this actually, this whole topic, and we're gonna get into it, stemmed from something G. Bush had told us last week, and then Gilbert doubled down, that he thinks Bates could be a starter and an immediate impact player for the Cavaliers this season. So we went on YouTube.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Into our members only post, and we ask the members here whenever we do that, it's brought to us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the signing bonus, you can apply online at precast.com slash careers to learn more. So G said he could be a starter and immediate contributor. So I went out to our YouTube poll or communities only tab.

[Assistant] I said, Hey guys, what do you think is a realistic expectation for Amani Bates as a rookie? I'm just going to read a couple of answers real quick because they were all in line with what G thought and what Earl thought when I asked him this weekend, Earl said if he gets 10 points per game, that'd be great.

[Assistant] So those don't seem crazy when you look at them on paper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That just sparks into my head. I said, okay, let me go do a little research and see how many second round picks ever put up numbers like that. So let's run through the last seven draft classes. In their rookie year. As a rookie, correct.

[Assistant] And let's see how many guys, to answer the question of, can he make an immediate impact? Will he make an immediate impact? Let's see if the historical data says, it's possible, it's unlikely, it's realistic.

[Assistant] So let's start with this though. Here are the last five 49th overall picks. Okay. You had last year Isaiah Mobley in Cleveland. Non-contributor. Marcus Zagorowski has never played a minute in the NBA.

[Assistant] Isaiah Joe is a 11th, 12th guy in Philadelphia. He's had a couple good games in the NBA at the end of season when it's garbage time. Quindary Weatherspoon and Chumise Metu both went to San Antonio. Neither has ever done anything in their careers. So just look at the last five 49th picks.

[Assistant] It's hard to have high expectations based on that. Now, this is not a knock on a money. This is just looking at historical data to see maybe what we can expect. So let's start with last year's second round draft class. Steve, you take the next graphic here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I went through and I think there was two Impact rookies from this class. Do you guys know who's in that picture? Do you know who that's a picture of? No. That is Andrew Nebhart. He's the only rookie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drafted in the second round last year, that played over a thousand minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He ranked 148th in total minutes in the NBA last year. So it's really not a lot of minutes. He averaged 24 minutes a game. So one rookie from last year's second round draft class.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Never, never made their NBA do. Correct. And there was two guys, the other guy who was an impact player in my opinion was, uh, Jayden Hardy, or Jaylen Hardy, excuse me, in Dallas. He didn't play till the second half of the season. He was, uh, he averaged seven points a game, got off the bench, scored, but it's not like he made a giant impact. He only played 40 games. Let's go back to the year before, 2021.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, only two Impact players, Herb Jones in New Orleans, and Ayu Dismuno, uh, I always say his last name on. Dismuno, in Chicago, he played at Illinois with- That looks like a picture from-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is Herb Jones, who's a really good defensive player, not an offensive player. No one in that class averaged 10 points as a rookie. No one currently in their careers through two seasons averages 10 points, only four players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In two seasons have broken into a real rotation. Five second round picks from 2021 have not made their debut. So in two seasons, a sixth of the picks in that class still haven't touched the NBA floor. Still have not touched the floor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's go back to 2020. Wow, Mike, how long did this take you? You, you must have, I spent a good amount of time there, but there's a, there's a real, kudos to you. It's great information. There's a real trend. You'll see. I've already seen it further and further back. There's a real, in other words, it's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There were four, or three, excuse me, impact players in this class. You had Kenyon Martin Jr., Xavier Tillman, and Theo Maladon of Oklahoma City. None of those are stars. Three guys who are solid rotation pieces. Only one guy in this class currently averages more than ten points a game for his career.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a lot of those picks are draft and stashed European guys who never make it. Exactly. And that happens. But here's where, here's where it starts to trend and a little different. Here's where I saw the first change. Let's go to 2019.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd have to double check that. I know you'd have to double check. No, Jalen McDaniels was the 53rd pick and he's on this, but these are guys like Nick Claxton, Cody Martin, Bull Bull, Taylor Horton Tucker, Terrence Mann, who does play for the Clippers in their rotation, Jalen McDaniels, who was just traded to the 76ers. Uh, all those guys are solid rotational pieces.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, and none of them currently average 10 points per game for their entire NBA game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, two things real quick. For context, Brandon Miller, who just won second, was involved, he's not charged with anything, but was involved in a literal murder. Yeah, exactly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got two more things to show you guys, then I'm gonna give you my conclusion and I'll pass it back. You guys take it. 2018, we got our first star. You have to go all the way back to 2018 to find a star in the second round. That's Jalen Brunson, who did not average 10 points per game as a rookie, is now an all NBA caliber performer. There's other seven other guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From that class it turned out to be very solid NBA players. You have Mitchell Robinson, Devontae Graham, Bruce Brown, D'Anthony Melton, Shake Milton, Jared Vanderbilt, and Gary Trent Jr. Three players in that class for their careers now averaged more than 10 points per game. Eight averaged 20 minutes, meaning they've turned into rotational players. Three never made their debut.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You mentioned rookies averaging 10 points per game that were drafted in the second round. Steve, take the next one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going back to 2016, only three rookies drafting the second round have ever averaged more than 10 points. Again, that was Eric Paschal.
