The Florida State Seminoles. And head coach. Jeffrey Labowski. They beat the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets yesterday in week zero in Dublin, Ireland in the first ever game of this year's 2025 Dynasty. It started with the first overall pick in the hot tub. I think you all know how that story ended. Shook everyone's mind when I started shaking that speedo and went with America's team, went with Florida State, the official school of coach prime, and sure DJ Yooka-Laylee threw for five interceptions in his first ever game. And sure, the fans were rowdy and Dublin. And we drank about a beer in the whole stadium. And it was quite interesting to hear the chant of the Seminole. Oh, man, they were locking it down except every time I'd get the ball back, Yooka-Laylee. Nice, nice pass to Micah Benson. Nice little run, nice pass to the tight end. Interception, man, I kept those guys alive. I think at halftime Georgia Tech had like 13 yards, but they had a pick six. Anyway, America's team is one and all after week zero. The rest of the guys are on the clock. I'll keep you posted on how that goes. Can I just tell you what though? We were talking earlier in the week. When is the-- We'll keep you posted. Olympics gonna hit their climax. Wow, was it yesterday afternoon? How many people were like me just on their phone even? Maybe not near their TV, but had to flip that thing on somehow, some way. Once you're kind of seeing the Twitter sphere and the sports talk universe mentioning like, ah, Yokech, and all Serbia's gonna get them, I had to flip that game on. I didn't watch the first half. I was a little busy. That was the Yokech half too. I was a little busy getting a little busy yesterday, but I tell you what, as soon as I could get to see that thing, oh my God, it was breathtaking. What a game. I mean, oh man, the way the third quarter came and went, was as spectacular as the fourth quarter could have been. And the fourth quarter wouldn't have been as amazing if it wasn't for that third quarter. Team USA gets it back to like a 4.5 point game, and then Yokech and them Serbs just start going word up. Corner three, boom, offensive rebound. Joel Embiid, big guy. Can't be, he can't do it all himself. We do need some help from the guards. Rebound him, but man, it looked like right at the end of the third quarter, they're going to go ahead and make this a close game. And then Serbia runs away with it. It was a four point play, right? Where Derek White filed the guy? Four point play. I think it was 7561 at that point. It goes 7561, and then they maybe got one more bucket, USA did on the way back. I thought it was a 12 point. Anyway. At the end of three. At the end of three. Yeah, it was, and it was not looking good, except you could kind of hear a little, you say, you say, you say, you say, you say, I believe. Oh, man, I believe that. I mean, and I'm getting texts. The orchestra is the greatest player in the world, and I'm getting texts, and I'm seeing the tweets, and they're not wrong. They're not wrong. If this Olympics hasn't proved that, then come on. But at the same time, in the middle of the third quarter, when Steph ribs a three down, and he's just not losing intensity, he refuses to lose intensity, makes a three, and they go, that's a seven three point in the game. I'm like, what? Man, chef is cooking today. He was in his bag yesterday. Holy man. Saved all his threes for yesterday. And speaking of four point plays, right? So we fast forward a little bit. We fast forward to member America, right? And this is yokech knocks the knocks over the screener. Well, Durant makes the three. Oh, yeah. It was Anthony Davis who kind of fell down like he always does. Yeah, but he got kind of bold over just the same. Ball goes up. Three pointer, they call shot good. And then here's where it gets interesting, right? They could have said, oh, you get a free throw after that. One more shot, four point play. They made the correct call. The follow it was totally different from the shot. Side line inbound. And the rest are like, no, you review that. You should know, no, you should review. - Isn't the soccer motion. - Yeah, like VR, yeah. - NBA. - Yeah, no, no, no, finger wag. And I'm like, oh, you know, you know, curse over there with that blackboard. Like, all right, let's get a, let's get a easy three right now. And within a five set and within five seconds of the clock ticking down, right? Durant shot it, made it, clock stopped. And then they inbound it, Devin Booker. Top of the three, top of the key. Swish city. That's like six points and five seconds. - Big swing. - That's where I was like, big swing. - Big cheer, huh? What's that? Man. What is that? - What is that? - That's what the Serbia bench was like. - What is that? - Man. - Oh, tip of the cap of the chef. And then, but you know what, as big and goofy as that Embiid is, he's hard to cheer for, let's be all, let's all be honest, unless you're like a, okay, if you're a Jayhawk, - He's hitting them with that. - Suck it yesterday. - Hey, you're a Jayhawk, you cheer for Embiid. Is that fair to say? - Of course. - You think Lundy cheers for Embiid? He's not a Jayhawk, but he's not a Jayhawk. - That's a good question if his loyalty goes that far, I don't know. - I mean, his college is like Oregon State, so he's got Gary Payton. - I don't think he cheers for every Kansas player. Maybe, I don't know if it is. - His lovely wife. - I would think he would go with the nugget. - Rock, chalk, like, you know, they all, there's no half ass rock chalk fans, right? There's not people that are like, I'm kind of into Kansas. You know what I mean? They're either all in or they're like, nah, they're not for me. - Right. - Or I just didn't go there. Like, you know, I've been on the campus. I've been to the fog. I've never seen a game there. I love what they do there in Lawrence, Kansas. - Hey, that's where the whole damn thing was invented. - But I can't say that it's for me. 'Cause it's not mine. It's not my state. It's not my college. But I'm a little, if I'm being all too honest, I'm pretty jealous. - Little jelly. - Little jelly, I'm a little jelly that I just went to some D3 college in western Wisconsin and didn't quite go get the full D1 experience just as a college kid. That being said, I wouldn't have made it to sophomore year. I would have partied too hard and gotten arrested too many times for trying to steal people's scooters. There I said it. - Well, let's say boss is a MB guy 'cause of the Kansas connection. - Right. And then the other guys that, like our guy Nigel likes MB because why? 'Cause he's a huge Philadelphia set. - Bill, exactly. Boom. 'Cause that's all MB's had, right? I mean, the night, you know, he's never really been anywhere else. So that's cool. He's not like, oh, I like LeBron in Miami, but I don't really like LeBron in LA. And I like LeBron in Cleveland the second time, but not as much as the first time. It was the first time I thought he was a little too young. Second time, you know, I thought he was better. It was more of a family man. The second time in Cleveland on the first time. - Oh, I met a guy at a nuggets game one time. He said I would just root for whatever team LeBron plays for. So he was a Cleveland fan and then Miami and then, yeah. That's crazy. - That's crazy. How could you do that? - And that, so for me, watching Joe Ellen beat, I just, I don't cheer for him. But he's got that USA on his chest. So of course I cheer for him. Of course I cheer for him, right? Man, he's goofy, but he came in big. - Yeah. - Came in big. - Great game. But 19 points for him yesterday. - Big seven points in that fourth quarter. Like in the middle there, he had seven straight points, right? I think he went and won bucket, bucket. And then he, well, he drew the offensive foul against Yokech, where he kind of hooked his arm around, got all pumped up after that. Yeah, he was shooting the ball from the outside. I thought Curry and Embiid were probably the two biggest reasons why they won for the U.S. - And man, when LeBron gets that little choo-choo train looking at his eyes where he's like, you can be on the tracks or you can be off the tracks, but the choo-choo train's coming. - Do you think Bogdanovich poked the bear a little bit? He was, he was feeling himself. He was hitting Carmelo Anthony with this three-point celebration. LeBron got the end one against him. He did the two small to Bogdanovich. - All the way down. - All the way down. - He went down to his ankles on that one. - I love D-weight. He was like, I think LeBron was just showing him where the floor was. - Yeah, it's, or showing him how high he can jump versus how high LeBron can jump. Bogdanovich, you know, that's, man, he wanted to win that game. - That's about, yeah. I mean, it's about as good of a game as you can play against the good as a team as you can play against. - That, that USA lineup is, Jason Tatum is not playing, guys. - That's insane. - Jalen Brown's not even on the team. Those two guys just went up and down Boston's main street with the Larry O'Brien trophy. - Ran through the whole NBA. - Yeah. - And the one guy Derek White makes the team. Why is that? - 'Cause you need Derek White's on your team, guys. - Defensive versatility. - You need Derek White's. - Steel's blocks. What you want? - The team USA, that won the Miracle on Ice, they had a bunch of Derek White's. They had like one or two Gretzky's. They didn't, this team, this USA team for Hoops has got like 12 Gretzky's. - Who do you-- - In a Mario. - So the '92 dream team has regarded as probably the best team of all time. Do you think this, how does this team stack up better, almost as good, on par? It's been quite the discussion since the start of the Olympics. - I-- - 'Cause what, they have 16 full of famers? - I don't think it's close. - On the '92 team? - '92 is. There's never, there'll never be a '92 dream team ever again. The problem is, is that the Larry Bird of our times played in that game yesterday. He's just wearing a sedurbia. He was wearing the sedurbia shirt and not the USA, right? So now if Larry Bird, you know if Nicole Yokich was on this USA team, like he was like, "I've lived here seven years, I get full residency. I'm big, Usefan. I love red stripes and blue. I love for all red stripes and blue, red stripes." And then in place for Team America, there you go. Now we're talking. - Right. - If Dirk no Witsky, you know, that team's whatever, Carl Malone, or that team's Reggie Mille, I mean-- - Ewing, I don't know. - Yeah. - David Robinson. - The thing about that dream team was in 1992, all the best players in the world were Americans. Now, all the best players in the world are not Americans. - Right. - They're just front. - Like literally the best players in the NBA are-- - France seems to have a couple nice players. - Slovenia, Serbia, Greece. - Slovenia, Greece, exactly. - Cameroon. - Perfect. You know what I mean? And that's not a not-- I mean, it's partially a knock on the US, right? But it's just-- It's almost a tip of the cap to the great game of basketball and how guys like Yao Ming and guys like Dirk no Witsky and guys like Pejus Doyakovic, the guys that came through first, that lift. - Shrimp? - Yeah, yeah. - The Dunkin' Dutchman? Rick Smits? All these guys, you know, oh, and my favorite are Vedas. Our Vedas, not your Vedas and not my Vedas. - Our Vedas. - Our time. - That's the little baby Joker. Oh, man. They'll never see. And, you know, I got so much love for John Stockton. And, like, Magic Johnson that I just-- and we're not even-- I haven't even named Michael Jordan yet. - Yeah. And the funny thing is, like, Bird and Magic were at the tail end in the '92 dream team. Bird, like, barely played 'cause of his back. Magic was already out of the NBA at that point. - I mean, I think if you go down the roster, you might get a little bit like, well, we got Troy Reese Halliburton and you guys had Christian Leitner, and I'll be like, "Well, hey, don't forget Leitner was kind of ridiculous." - Leitner was a-- he was a good college player, but, like, Halliburton's like a star. - Oh, yeah. - And he can't even see the floor. - It's crazy. - Yeah. So, Yokech is probably the only guy on the Serbia team that makes the USA roster, right? There's not a single other guy. Bogdan Bogdanovich probably doesn't make the USA roster. - Probably. - And they go with Derek White over Bogdan Bogdanovich. - Yeah, I agree. And I don't think there's a single player on the USA team that could have switched places with Yokech and won that game for Serbia. Like, there's not a single-- like, if Lebron was on Serbia yesterday, Serbia wouldn't have won. - No, Serbia scored 90-something points, guys. Serbia played their asses off. They emptied the tank. They squeezed out all the juice. They left it on the floor. Serbia played their-- like, one of their best games in the history of their country. - The bummer is they-- how are you going to stop that team? How are you going to stop that squad when Chef's cooking, when Bron's choo-chooing, just taking it to the rack and when Embiid's making 15-footers? Now, when Embiid's putting it on the wood, that's a win for you on defense, I think. Make him dribble. But when he's doing just jabs and fakes and he doesn't have to bounce it, he's tough. He's tough because he can get his-- he's just so big. - Think about his jab step, right? He probably covers, like, six feet of floor. - Yeah. - If he jabs one way and then he-- and then he rips, right? The ball goes-- he's covering with a wingspan like that. You've got to go all the way over there and then he just rips it back. He doesn't have to go anywhere to make the defender move six feet-- left six feet right. Man, he is hard to guard. But when he starts to dribble, he looks like a kind of a goof out there. - He usually falls down, right? - He falls down, the ball goes flying and then he's like, "Hold you to the cold of floor." - Oh, yeah. The one they call the travel on. - "Hold you to the cold of--" - "Hold you to the cold of--" - "Hold you to the cold of--" - "Hold you to the cold of--" - All right, Joel. Good stuff. Let's go to break on time as usual. If you're on the hotline, please keep holding. We'll get right back to you. It's a football Friday. We definitely got to talk about the Broncos camp. What's going on at the QB at-- is that-- I mean, we can talk about all other things. We can talk about the gray catch by Vela yesterday. We can talk about all sorts of sweet stuff. But my real question is why not just go with Bo? Let's make shirts. Let's say just go with Bo. - Nice. Nix is the fix. Go with Bo. - Go with Bo. - Yeah, even-- let's take away-- let's just go three words. Go with Bo. Let's-- guys, he's not a kid. He's a-- he's a old man. He's a man. He's 24. - No, I'm not a kid. - Come after him. Go after Bo. Let's just go with Bo. Give the guy the snaps. Give him the looks. Give him the chances to fail. And then what is there? There's wins, right? And there's lessons. Let him learn some lessons. You tell me it. Tell me I'm right. Tell me I'm wrong. 3, 0, 3, 8, 3, 1, 13, 40. Hotline in the text line. Smile, high morning show. We'll be right back on the other side. [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] Yeah. Smile, high morning show. We're back. It's Friday. Freaky Friday. A little overcast out there. 10, 22 in the morning. There's no traffic though. Don't worry. I just checked. We should do traffic updates. I know this town so well. Just driving around it. You guys want to hear a funny story? Check this out. So I'm driving around doing a comp search photo. And I roll by and I see a little red Tesla. And I go, damn. That little red Tesla looks familiar. And I take a little picture and I go, this, you. Homeboy. And I sent it to my guy, Alex Becker. A.B. Because he runs a show. And I figured he was-- I found the show. Taking an app or something, sure enough. He said it goes, yeah, that's me. I go, I'm in your alley taking comp photos. Right? He's like, I'll come down. I go, love to talk. Got to go, bro. Really important stuff to get to today. Fast forward. Boom, boom, boom. We get down to Lakewood. I'm in Lakewood, Colorado. Like Solterra. So I go from up northeast by where Becker is. Down to Solterra in Lakewood. That's like 470 in Morrison. And I'm trying to get into this house. I'm locked out of the house. And I'm like, dang it. I thought this guy was going to meet me here. And I remember that this dude lives across the street. From Sean. Sedito. And our friends are Platt River Mortgage. Huge shout out Platt River Mortgage. Sean hooked up that appraisal for me. And so I text Sean and I go, hey, if your buddy across the street, you've got his phone number. I'm locked out of his house. So long story longer. In the same day, I'm just driving around doing my work. Just driving around the city doing my work. And in the same day I see Becker's car. Randomly parked in his neck of the woods. I see Sean Sedito's house. I'm across the street from his house down in Solterra there. And I was locked out. I needed. So I needed Sedito. So I texted him. And he hooked me up with the phone number. I go, remember your, you hooked. Like he hooked me up with that appraisal. It's a guy across the street. I'm locked out of the house. I got to get to a 530 appointment with. You know, family. And I was like, dude, I need some help. So in the same day, I saw yours. I saw I'm taking a picture with Sedita in the background. Man. You're all over the place. I know this town. Is today Coach Primes birthday? That I don't know. I can't tell. Someone said three hours ago, it's a happy birthday to the best coach in college football. Thank you for all you do, Coach Primes. Today is his birthday. He is 57 years old today. Yeah, it's your birthday. I want to sing the anthem. Take me out to Folsom. Yay. Coach Primes. Happy birthday. Damn. 57. Looking good. He looks good for 57, except when he grows his beard out. And he don't. He looks like Aloe. Hey, Aloe. Bad news. You've been substituted for Milo. Milo came in. He's a high schooler. He hit it out of, he hit it out of the park. Okay. So, sorry, bro. It's time for you to go. Solo. Because Aloe got replaced by Milo. There I said it. Hey, let's go out to the hotline. Let's not make these guys wait a minute longer. This guy, the first guy on the line, he's a mayhem icon. You may remember him from his college days at Purdue. Or his pro days with the New Orleans Saints. It's breeze. Hey, breeze. What's up, Dave? How you doing? Hey, good. How are you guys? Rocco's rule. Everybody sucks, right? Everybody else sucks. That's fair. I appreciate that. I just call in. I watched that a little bit of that basketball. But I called in to talk about them runners, the two. They were placed good place and they passed everybody. And the 1500, did you see that race? Is this dudes or ladies? Dude. Hawker, right? Cole Hawker? Yes, I don't know. I've seen him training on YouTube. He was like running in his house. He said it all up to where he had different conditions and stuff and altitude. Kind of. It's pretty interesting. And he ended up winning the race. It's pretty cool. It's way cool. I mean, as much as I enjoyed watching the basketball game early in the day live at like 130. That prime, that prime time racing last night was hot. We didn't change the channel at the girls house. We were watching that stuff. What men's ladies long distance short distance jumping over stuff or not. We kept it on the racing and it was guys getting bronze medals with COVID. It was damn fine television. Yeah. It's pretty good. It's interesting. I dig it. I do. It's really something for bring America back to America where we should be instead of all this controversy. All that other baloney. You know what I mean? We're supposed to be all on the same page like we're doing right now. Yeah. No, it's. I mean, it's hard. If you are watching these Americans and not cheering for them because you think America sucks or something or you think America's. Trump's an idiot or Biden's like, you know, a robot with a mask on like. You might be right. And you're putting your stuff in front of what really matters. You're putting the cart in front of the horse. Like the horse is the fact that we all get to come together and cheer for our best and brightest at whatever event badminton to men's field hockey. I'm down for that red, white and blue. And I don't want China to win. And it has nothing to do with anything. I just want us to be number one United States of America for all American citizens. If you're an American sit and stand up and be proud for what these guys are doing. It's hard work what they're doing. It's not easy. They trained four years and then some of them don't even make it. Oh, yeah. And I mean, and there's something to be said about like a guy saying, damn, yolkach is so sweet. And then the next guy being like, Hey, you're an American like, no, that's part of being American. As you can say, yolkach is sweet. It doesn't. Yeah. But we're still going to dominate it. Yeah. I mean, great. We're going to win. America is going to win. Yeah, he wants to be on our team. It's good. That's why I came over here. It's good getting that friendly reminder, you know, especially in sports that we, uh, we're pretty, pretty talented in this country. Oh, very talented. What do you see? The women they did. And then 1500, too. They were somewhat too. Hey, this was, there was no one even by that. Dude. It was running. Yes. The one gal who was wearing the crown. I mean, man, all these track and field. Oh, yeah. Sydney McLaughlin. Yeah. The world record. Divas. All the dudes are divas. The girls are divas. And then the fastest man in the world who wins the 200 is like being divas now for me. I know, uh, I know, uh, I know, uh, I'm not a very arrogant or loud. I leave that for no allows to be face of arrogance. Yeah, that's, that's kind of your, your being man. Just be a man. Like that dude who won the shooting contest. Oh, yeah. What do you do? He was all cock. Oh, I understand it, but it happened to society. Well, today I went to work okay enough. This dude, both these people were wrong. One was homeless and the other one was working. Okay. But the other one brought his dog to work and they're both walking their dogs without a leash. And they're both like, oh, I put a leash on your dog. You're like, okay, both these are morons because both of you don't have a leash of a dog. So these one used to be arguing with each other. Yeah. This is, you start a Friday with each other and I'm like, Oh my gosh, this is what we woke up to do at six in the morning. You know what I mean? I'll be able to make money. And you guys over here arguing over your dumb dogs, you need to one of these are intelligent. And that's America right there in a nutshell. Yeah, you know, yeah. And then you're supposed to guys, you're supposed to be like, Hey, let's all cheer for America's running races tonight. All right, you guys. Yeah, but they're stuck in their own world. But you should either say, Hey, where America is, where adults wake up, you want to fight each other, call the cops, but that'd be quiet, dude, trying to work here. I like that. That's annoying. No, you're good today. Anything else you want to say to the people? Keep going, don't stop mile high sports rules. So do the Broncos. There you go. Keep loving. Love life. Appreciate your family. Eight. You're good today. Lead with love. So when I tell my kids, man, you got to be a leader of the hospital, you got to lead with love, right? I tried back in my coaching days in when I was coaching barsity and stuff. I was feisty. Now I loved up on the kids hard, but I, you know, I get a little bulldoggy too. And I'm always like, yeah, if I do that over, maybe I'd lead with love a little bit more next time around. So one's on to something there or breeze, I should say. Who else? We got another guy on the hotlines. Should we go back out? We got one more? Yeah. Yeah. One sec. Here is, here's our guy. Tabogo after winning the 200 final. For me, I can't be the face of athletics because I'm not an arrogant or a loud person, like Noah. So I believe Noah is the face of athletics. I, like, dude, that is so cold blooded. I can't even tell if he's complimenting him or dissing him. I just want to kiss that guy. I want to kiss that guy. He's like his English is super good, good enough that you know exactly what he's saying, but it's just broken enough where you can't tell if he's like smack-talking this guy or if he's just saying like it's not for me, I come from humble beginning, you know, for me it's not. Noah can be that guy. He had fun, had a big smile, laughed a lot, you know, like, and you're like, dude, great sentences. You're sweet. It's probably not your first language, or is he just so cold blooded that he's like, Oh, I don't think he was joking around or messing around. He's like, he's like this arrogant, this arrogant POS over here, think he funny and have a good, he can't even. I slow down and end over race, top my chest, you know, like that's what he was getting at. He was kind of smack-talking him. Oh, I love that. I love it even more. Hey, let's go back out to the hotline. It's hot today. 3 0 3 8 3 1 13 40 hit us with text to as long as you're not driving, but if you're out of red light, 3 0 3 8 3 1 13 40 is the hotline. Let's go back out to it. It's a longtime listener, longtime caller, longtime singer, longtime songwriter. It's Chuck nasty. Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, Chuck, how are you? Long time. Man, I miss you. I'm happy to hear you. You have 10 o'clock. That's like, like, this year's time, and I have our time getting the hold of you guys. Well, I appreciate any time you can make time. I have power in the day. Hey, anytime you can make time, we got time. I'll try. What's on your mind, big guy? I think there's women involved, so now when women get involved, time kind of loses meaning. Whoa. Beautiful women. I'm kind of a big deal. Yeah. Hey, going into the break, I was talking about how we got to just go with Bo at the Broncos camp. Just go with Bo Nix for the quarterback. No, it's not dabble around with low paid veterans or, you know, could be projects. Just go with the rookie. What do you think? Go with Bo? Hey, I'm scared of Bo. Really? He was terrible in the SEC. However, he was not very good. He won like six games there. Yeah. But then when he went to Oregon, he was all lightened up. Well, SEC is 50% of the players in the NFL come to be SEC. You're good today, Chuck. I mean, he's preaching. I'm nervous. I'm nervous. I just wanted to call and tell everybody, "Please do not get so excited. I brought with that a long time. I've never seen such a lollipop loser as this. I mean, we get rid of our best player. We keep all the grub-dumb players. And then we get a quarterback that was there to Kansas City before my homes. Alex Smith. Alex Smith. That's Bo Nix. Hey. You're good today. Whoa. Hey, it's the same thing. Go win some games. Alex Smith won one playoff game. Right. That's more than Justin Herbert. Yeah. That's true. Everyone loves Justin Herbert. That guy's way overrated. Well, I asked Danny if he would take Justin Herbert's trajectory. And he said, "Yeah." And I think you should, right? The guy completes passes. He gets his team close to the playoffs. He wins about half the time, actually less. Herbert wins less than he loses. I think he's 45-55, something like that. Hey, well, I'm on the under this year. Under what? You know how I am. I always pick 12-4. But now... Your bottoms go. I don't see it. I don't see it's doing anything like three wins all year. Whoa, Chuck. Come on. It's a 17-game season. Now you're just being... Hater. No. Who knows how about Hater? Hater. Who knows how about Hater? I think he's starting to be lovable. I mean, one thing I can tell you about Sean Payton is he's never taken the Thorton Trojans to the 5A state tournament, and he's never been on the coaching staff that got the John F. Kennedy commanders to the 5A state tournament, so Sean Payton, once you start taking teams like Kennedy and teams like Thorton to the 5A state tournament, you come call me Sean. Okay? What's the question? I heard that. I heard that. I kind of liked the way Sean Payton's dealing with Eric Goodman. He was doing that lovable-y. You know? Go, Eric. That was fun. And I liked the way how he was dealing with Cecil. You're not close. Not even close. But I'll answer your question. He's kind of growing on me. Everybody's got like a long thing going on. He just came right in. Eric, I don't know, I just, I've still pissed that he got rid of our best player. Hey, do you, it's Coach Brown's birthday. He's 57. Do you have any tips for him being like in his late 50s? I know you're, you know, you're, what are you, 49 or something like that? So you're right around that age. Do you got any tips for Coach Brown on his birthday? Actually, I'm 70. What? I'm a man. Come after me. Yeah, for me. I'm 70. Yeah. I'm 40. You got a mullet and all that? Hey, you know, you do what you do. All right. Get, get, get long as you can. We got to go, big guy. Hey, so take the under. I don't know, not three though. You're crazy. I don't see five. You're crazy, Chuck. I'm sorry, but I got to call it like I see it. And Jeff, I'm glad you're doing such a good job. You know, that shows, it's my favorite show of all. It's probably better. Yo, internet. Shoot, I mean, is it better with Williams or without time in years that I'm listening to a good radio show and disagree with everything. Oh, yeah, he's just, Danny's important and, you know, you guys like pinky finger than that guy's gotten his whole body. You're probably right. Thank you. Don't tell me. I said that. He might get mad. Hey, well, back, I'll try to start getting in college more than that with football season. Just listen to what I said, I know you guys taped it and we'll see. We'll put that in your tomorrow. I have horse racing everybody's got different opinion. All right, Chuck. Love you. Jeff, you're the best. I agree. Thanks, buddy. I have a good day. There it is. Chuck, Chuck nasty there hotline text line for the people. We open up the phone lines because our phone lines get filled up. See how that works? You call the show. We talk to you. You tell us what you think. We tell you what we think. We have a laugh. We have a cry. We give it our best try. That's how we do it here on the smile high morning show. I'm coach G. That's a B and we'll be right back on the other side. No, we finally hear right? You know, the thing that hurts me the most is that I have to watch the NBA finals and they have world champion on they head world champion of what the United States. Oh, he's that mean head that said that. What do you think about that? Yeah, do you think he's on to something or he's on something? I think that's he's not wrong, but we just got the way it's a global game though. It's a global. The best players in the world play there exactly if you're not based if you were the best in the world, where would you go to play basketball against the other best in the world? The association. You go to the association. Right. That's easy. Right. So what's he saying? He's saying because ready to learn Chinese, buddy, he's saying because the players play in American cities that they're not the best in the world. Yeah, exactly. I mean, like because there's no NBA teams in Eastern is Tiger Woods was either best is Scotty Sheffield the best golfer in the world. I'd say so. But he only plays on American courses and then once in Scotland, how can he be the best in the world? Yeah. Because the world comes to play him. Right. It is, you know, the base the best baseball players in the world play for the world series. You know, sometimes, I mean, just because you're fast, don't mean you're smart and just because you're smart. Don't mean you're, you know, you're great. It's hard to be good at everything and no allows is kind of I think he's barking up the wrong tree there. I think what you want to do is be pro United States, especially when you're wearing that on your chest. You don't need to. So okay. So then if the United States, if the USA team wins the gold medal, will he then call that basketball team, the best team in the world? Probably. Right. Then he will. I don't know. Cause he, I mean, he's saying it with such confidence that sometimes I like to just stop people and be like, man, what makes you so sure right now? I bet he was rooting for Serbia yesterday. Isn't that weird? He beefs with the NBA guys, especially like Booker. Right. Yeah. They're probably chasing the same tail and probably finding themselves at those same ditty parties. No, ditty. How about that yesterday, though? He tests positive for COVID two days before on like Tuesday and then he runs the 200. It still gets bronze and then has to get in a wheelchair to even get off the track and then like right after the race, they find out, yes, COVID he raced the race with COVID. What a turn of events there. Yeah. And I was sitting there with my lovely wife and saying, man, it's, you know, three years ago, there was no one in the stands, right? The games were moved to a year later because of COVID that we've come so far. No one was allowed in the stands and now, and now the Olympic policy is that you don't, you can run a few feel like it. Just think about that. Yeah. He felt okay. He felt okay. So he was allowed to possibly spread this dangerous disease with everyone around him, everyone racing against and tapping up everyone after the race, everyone, right? And then he comes on with the mask afterwards. For me, it was a little it. It, I mean, I've seen almost better acting and stuff like that on macho man, Randy Savage. It seemed a little WWE to me. It seemed like Undertaker was going to come out as the driver of the ambulance and Stone cold didn't see it coming. It just, this dude's a little much for me. I was cheering for America to win. I think I was actually cheering for that Kenny dude who got the silver. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I was cheering for that dude. Yeah. He looks like, like he looked like Herschel Walker to me. Like just a dude, just a sweet, stud, strong sprinter athlete, and sometimes the 100 meter guys, they have a hard time and doubling up and getting that 200 meters. I love it. When I'll say, when I turn that corner and hit the straight away, it's show time. It just turned out that when he turned that corner and hit the straight away with Barbados, is that where the dude is from? I think so. Yeah. Is that where Rihanna is from? Yeah. Yeah. I think Rihanna is the official. Probably right. Yeah. Just the official Barbadosian Barbadosian, Barbadosian, a bar, you know, he came out of that straightaway and you could see he'd lost. He had lost that race, but I also feel like he slowed down. Nailed it. Yes. That boy. Let's go. I don't know much about Rihanna. If I'm, I'm not joking. I couldn't name three of her songs. But, but if you played them, I'd be like, I love this one. This one's great. Ella. Ella. Exactly. I'm like, yes, I do love that one. I feel like he, he kind of pulled up early Lyles. I think he ran a hundred and ninety five meter race. He didn't run that 200 meter. The last 15 he kind of, and that cost him silver. I feel like that county dude was just pumping it and just being like, I got to, I got to race my ass off to try and catch this dude and the other dude has got the lead and he's like given Daph's slapping his heart. I'm like, bro, you are cold blooded. But as much as I didn't think I was going to be into it, man, I was into it. I'm into it. McLaughlin, too. How impressive was that? She's in a class of her own when it comes to the 400 hurdles. Dude, she came around the bend. Same deal. And it was showtime. I think she jumped that other one right next to the, the, the Dutch gal. Yeah. Bull bull's twin sister. Right. Looks just like her. Oh, like. It's like, is you bull bulls? Heart most of the time. Oh, there's your mom and dad, too. Cool. I thought minute was your mom. Manute bull. Yeah. Dad. You know that that again, then she wins and then she's getting crowned and she's like these, these cats are Davis. The one girl wins the long jump and she's just running around like, man, I like the track and field cats. They're fun. They're all full of themselves. They're all loving it. I mean, cause you have to. I said it the other day. Mookie bats said you got to be your biggest fan. You really do got to be your biggest fan. Imagine winning a cold medal. They all said the same thing afterwards when they asked them why they did it. They're like, Oh, I don't know what happened. I blocked out. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Like, yeah, 12 drinks at the bar. I'm not responsible for what happens after that. Yeah. Like we won Christal Cup 19 and I don't remember the celebration. It was the 19th time we played in the cup. I probably won it 10 times by then or nine, you know, it's like when you when there's just this euphoria that comes over because you wanted something so bad. You worked hard for it. When your teammates came together and did it, imagine winning a gold medal. And there's cool. It's cool doing it in relay events. Those will be fun to watch when they're handing off the batons or it's cool doing it as a team gymnast, right? The USA wins it, but but also just as an individual. You are the one and only that stands on the top of the podium. Shoot. I didn't think I only two more days. Well, not including today. Only two more wraps up on Sunday. Perfect. I don't know if I could get them third week of it. You know, you got to give them the coverage has been pretty good. You like Snoop? Coverage has been good. Uncle Snoop's been great. If Snoop's there, it's fun. It's fun to watch. Plenty of stories. The gymnastics always comes up huge. The swimming and the racing, whatever kind of races it is, fun to watch. And then the team sports, whether they're unique or not, I mean, you know, the opening ceremonies and some of the weird stuff we talked about last week, I could do without some of that. The political part, I don't, I wish sports and politics weren't always together as much as they are. But man, there's something to be said about when it's just your country versus my country. I want you to do your best and I want you to lose to us. That's how I want it. USA. USA. USA. We'll be back a little bit more, smile, high morning show, one more segment. I want you to do your best, I want you to do your best, I want you to do your best. Two shorts as good as it gets, if you ask me, life is short, but it's kind of funky. I was raised on two short, Oaktown, Ghost Ride, the whip, hey, two short notes, you got to keep them teeth all pearly whites. Check out my guide, Kenny Burson and the Denver dentist. Go brush them teeth, go brush them teeth. DenverDennis.com, always accepting new patients, 2190 East 17th Avenue. They're open Monday through Friday 830 to 530. That place is like a boutique for your teeth, man. They got TVs on the ceiling, super comfortable. Just fun, nice people. It doesn't feel like you're at the dentist and when you get done, man, you're feeling clean. All the services right there in shop, bridges, implants, fillings, dentures, veneers, teeth whitening, extractions, and of course, the seric, same day, dental crowns, that's the DenverDennis.com dentist with an S. Check it out. Let's get to the text line. All right. Before we get out of here, Golden Mark says, Danny's whole drive is like the U.S. men's Olympic basketball team. You want to root for him against the Joker, but you just can't, yeah, that's, I mean, it was hard rooting against the okay, except I just like the USA that much. I love the U.S. I don't like those guys necessarily. I don't love them. I'm not a big KD trade fan. I think he's cold blooded. I think Kevin Durant is one of the sickest, easy money sniper. He's one of the sickest, coldest slim reapers out there. Steph Curry, I can get behind. That's your for Steph Curry. And part of me thinks like, damn, you kind of, all these kids think they can shoot threes now because of you. And all these kids chew on their damn mouthguard when they're shooting free throws because of you. LeBron, you know, I love him when he's running that USA. And then I don't love him any other time. I respect him except he asked me to give him his damn respect. So I don't know. I kind of just, that seemed disrespectful. Anyway. Oh, good. Oh, I'm going, we're picking up the kids from camp. They've been there for six nights by tomorrow. We're picking them up and I'm trying to find a spot to go watch that game. Isn't it tomorrow at one thirty? Yes. Yeah. Against Wendy and Gilbert. Dang. It's going to be a tune. It's going to be a good game. And host country and the US are getting all the calls. The US should get them get them by 10 or 12, you know, but you never know. That's the beauty of it. And I mean had Serbia won that game, you know, and then lost the gold medal that you've been remembered, right? But it's one of those things, the miracle on ice, that was a semi final game when they beat the Russians. They still had to go beat Finland or something in the championship. So it's one thing to get to the gold medal game. It's nothing to win it. Man, what if Wendy would have go bare? What if they can do it? There's no way, right? There's no way that France, the French pulled that off. I don't think so. There's no way, not especially after coming that close to losing, which come that close to losing. You never want to feel that feeling again. I mean, like, I feel like Drew Holliday would be the best player on France's team and he's like our sixth best player. There's no chance. No chance, France, no chance, France. What else? Any other texts out there? Are we good? Real quick. Alo says this year's team is way better than the 92 team because the dream team didn't have to face half the talent that this team has to face. If you look at the numbers, NBA guys versus 92, it's not even close. So that's true. That's true. That's correct. But that, okay. So now we're giving credit to the other teams in order to give the team with less talent more credit. Yeah. Well, the rest of the world is a whole lot better as we spoke about at length. I honestly think, yeah, we're saying the same thing. We're basically saying the best players all used to be from the USA and now they're not. And so because of that, yes, the other teams, they're playing are stronger. But you know, they're not playing another super team. But probably the closest thing to a super team was Canada, but they're so nice. They're always like, oh, sorry. Sorry about that. Didn't mean to be up there by 10 or 12 there. You know, sorry. That was real rude of us. Hey, I will, uh, well, sorry about that. We'll just not even make it to the semi finals. Okay. Who'd they lose to Germany? France, France quarter finals. Bombs. Bombs. Come on, Canada. Four bombs using maple syrup as Canadian adhesive, whatever. Hey, also, uh, Bloomfield beef. I got to give Marcus shout out. He's in town today. He's bringing me my beef. So you missed him this time around, but next time around, get in on that beef. Okay. It's all black Angus. They say the black are the Angus, the sweeter the beef. Take that for data. Hey, it's been a fun week. Sorry. We missed you yesterday and Danny's driving to Nebraska. I'm sure he's been listening to the show. We love you guys. You know we love you. We'll miss you guys. Have a great weekend for AB. I'm coach G from the 303. Good night. Sheila. Good night. Thank you, Sheila. Bye, Terry. Bye. Bye, Terry.
