00:00:01.580 --> 00:00:05.440
Portions of this show are recorded. Strap in

00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:08.740
and be prepared. Room for error is much slimmer

00:00:08.740 --> 00:00:10.419
in basketball. You lose one player and it changes

00:00:10.419 --> 00:00:12.460
your entire team. It's not like that in football.

00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:14.699
It's just not. It's not. Interesting guests.

00:00:15.099 --> 00:00:17.920
Kelly Graves, Mike Parker, Coach Mark Waskowski,

00:00:18.019 --> 00:00:20.500
Noah Eagle, Melissa Lombardi, Kenyon Barnard,

00:00:20.539 --> 00:00:23.219
Jonathan Stewart. Sharp opinions. Dana Altman

00:00:23.219 --> 00:00:27.960
probably earned a pass for a down year after

00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.200
almost 20 years. of what he's done for Oregon

00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:35.179
basketball. And some smiles. Guys, I was stuck

00:00:35.179 --> 00:00:36.619
in a car wash. Sounds like an R. Kelly song.

00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.259
It's not an R. Kelly song. It's Danny Havel.

00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:44.159
I can't remember, and I've been doing this for

00:00:44.159 --> 00:00:46.659
longer than you've been alive, which is really

00:00:46.659 --> 00:00:48.920
horrible that I have to say that, but it's the

00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.600
truth. Justin Grossweiner. It's like the saying

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:53.719
in Alaska, that you don't have to be faster than

00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:55.240
the bear, you just have to be faster than your

00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:58.770
friend. Danny and Justin starts now on Fox Sports

00:00:58.770 --> 00:01:13.400
Eugene and Fox Sports Newport. And welcome high

00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:16.219
top to Delta Triad, the Crystal Palace, the Bigfoot

00:01:16.219 --> 00:01:18.319
Beverages Studios at Fox Sports, Eugene, Fox

00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:21.459
Sports, Newport. This is the fastest 60 minutes

00:01:21.459 --> 00:01:23.299
in sports talk. It's the Danny and Justin radio

00:01:23.299 --> 00:01:25.900
program. Yes, kids, live and in living color.

00:01:26.180 --> 00:01:29.340
We're here. We're back. You can follow us on

00:01:29.340 --> 00:01:31.599
the old socials, Twitter and Blue Sky, Danny

00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:33.939
and Justin. Also, wherever you pick up your music

00:01:33.939 --> 00:01:36.500
or pod, however you do all that, whatever platform

00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:39.530
you use, we're there. Danny and Justin. Justin,

00:01:39.549 --> 00:01:41.230
over the fastest 60 minutes, you can see our

00:01:41.230 --> 00:01:44.109
bright, shiny faces. The little logo. We're just

00:01:44.109 --> 00:01:46.489
sitting there just smiling. Justin's all Natalie

00:01:46.489 --> 00:01:49.109
in his tie and his dress shirt, and I'm just

00:01:49.109 --> 00:01:51.590
kind of chilling, arms crossed, you know, without

00:01:51.590 --> 00:01:56.549
the frown, the scowl, the dad scowl on my face.

00:01:57.269 --> 00:01:59.590
Oh, boy, kids, we've got a great show for you

00:01:59.590 --> 00:02:01.709
today. We've got the judge, John Warren, going

00:02:01.709 --> 00:02:03.790
to talk a little beaver basketball, beaver baseball,

00:02:03.989 --> 00:02:07.590
which lights up. This weekend, they're down in

00:02:07.590 --> 00:02:09.909
the desert to take on Michigan to start out the

00:02:09.909 --> 00:02:13.110
season. We'll talk to John at about 20 after

00:02:13.110 --> 00:02:15.990
the hour, talk Super Bowl, talk a bad weekend

00:02:15.990 --> 00:02:18.330
for Oregon athletics. Man, the softball team

00:02:18.330 --> 00:02:21.090
kind of stumbled in Florida. Men's and women's

00:02:21.090 --> 00:02:23.150
basketball, though, with gutty efforts, both

00:02:23.150 --> 00:02:25.550
dropped games this weekend. And another game

00:02:25.550 --> 00:02:28.090
to talk about tonight as the Oregon men take

00:02:28.090 --> 00:02:32.430
on the Hoosiers of Indiana. But first, over there.

00:02:32.939 --> 00:02:36.080
At the controls is intern Blaze. I'm Danny Howell.

00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:37.719
They call me Doc. Right over here to my right

00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:41.840
is Justin Grossner. We call him Baby J. 44 days,

00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:46.340
Danny. 44 days until opening day. I knew it had

00:02:46.340 --> 00:02:48.060
to do something with baseball. Absolutely. It

00:02:48.060 --> 00:02:49.520
was going to have to do something with baseball,

00:02:49.659 --> 00:02:52.319
and that's where we're at now. I mean, we're

00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:54.259
obviously college basketball season, but we've

00:02:54.259 --> 00:02:58.270
got NBA. Next on the docket is MLB. So when did

00:02:58.270 --> 00:03:00.569
the announcement drop? I just saw it when I got

00:03:00.569 --> 00:03:02.930
here into the studio and I turned the NBA channel

00:03:02.930 --> 00:03:05.310
on. Or I guess it's ESPN talking about the NBA.

00:03:05.789 --> 00:03:07.830
When did it drop that Damian Lillard is going

00:03:07.830 --> 00:03:09.310
to be in the All -Star game shooting the three

00:03:09.310 --> 00:03:11.909
-point contest? I think it was yesterday. He

00:03:11.909 --> 00:03:14.689
posted about it. And I honestly didn't read the

00:03:14.689 --> 00:03:17.389
post. I just saw that he was wearing the alternate

00:03:17.389 --> 00:03:20.849
blue, like the carpet jersey. I don't know what

00:03:20.849 --> 00:03:23.229
it's called. But I didn't read the caption. And

00:03:23.229 --> 00:03:25.780
then I thought today that. He's going to be in

00:03:25.780 --> 00:03:27.599
the three -point contest, which I thought was

00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:29.560
amazing because I've never heard of a player

00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:31.759
that's recovering from an injury, like a season

00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:33.520
-long injury like that, that's out for the year.

00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:36.139
And the only time we will see him is during the

00:03:36.139 --> 00:03:38.080
three -point competition. Well, so what was interesting

00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:41.979
is they were showing his top five flat -footed

00:03:41.979 --> 00:03:44.759
three -point shots, which is trying to, I guess,

00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:46.560
say that he doesn't even have to jump. Sure.

00:03:46.819 --> 00:03:48.780
So that's why. But he's still got to run to a

00:03:48.780 --> 00:03:52.439
spot. I mean, wouldn't you, honestly, okay, I

00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:54.780
was going to say, if you're Joe Cronin, do you

00:03:54.780 --> 00:03:58.219
really want him out there in a competition at

00:03:58.219 --> 00:04:01.860
this point? You know, there must be a conversation

00:04:01.860 --> 00:04:03.620
that's been had there, like, all right, Dame,

00:04:03.699 --> 00:04:07.139
we get it. It's great PR for the franchise, awesome

00:04:07.139 --> 00:04:09.460
PR for the league, because Damian Lillard is

00:04:09.460 --> 00:04:12.580
one of those guys that he's not polarizing like

00:04:12.580 --> 00:04:15.719
LeBron is. No. He's really not. I mean, Dame

00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:17.720
time, you know, he pointed to his watch against,

00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:20.279
okay. People just say that he's running from

00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:22.220
the grind. But other than that, other than that.

00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.339
I mean, he's got his little music career going,

00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:26.980
too. Yeah, he's really good. I've seen him perform

00:04:26.980 --> 00:04:30.120
in person. He's not bad at all. He's really good.

00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:31.839
Yes, he actually has talent. I haven't seen him

00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:33.899
perform in person. Yes, it was a surprise, actually.

00:04:33.980 --> 00:04:35.480
I didn't know that was going to happen. And it

00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:36.779
just brought him out. It was awesome. It was

00:04:36.779 --> 00:04:38.120
in Portland. All right, so where did you watch

00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:40.600
the Super Bowl? With mom? With my mom, yes. Okay.

00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.240
Yes. So the Seahawks win their second Super Bowl

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:48.550
title. By the way, the Patriots did. set two

00:04:48.550 --> 00:04:51.350
records in the game, in the loss. Not good ones,

00:04:51.430 --> 00:04:54.149
I'm sure. Well, one was okay. Okay. It was their

00:04:54.149 --> 00:04:57.029
record -setting 12th appearance. More appearances

00:04:57.029 --> 00:05:00.350
than any other team in the Super Bowl in NFL

00:05:00.350 --> 00:05:01.750
history. I think that's about as good as it gets.

00:05:02.029 --> 00:05:04.850
Okay. But then they also, with the loss, set

00:05:04.850 --> 00:05:07.370
the record for the most losses in a Super Bowl

00:05:07.370 --> 00:05:11.509
because now they're 6 -6. So they tie Pittsburgh

00:05:11.509 --> 00:05:15.810
with the overall championship wins in Super Bowl

00:05:15.810 --> 00:05:18.350
history with six. But now they also have six

00:05:18.350 --> 00:05:22.329
losses. And everyone, I was listening to some

00:05:22.329 --> 00:05:23.949
of the national talk show hosts just banging

00:05:23.949 --> 00:05:25.769
on Mike Vrabel that he coached scared and everything

00:05:25.769 --> 00:05:29.750
else. How about this? How about you just say

00:05:29.750 --> 00:05:34.170
Seattle had just a suffocating, swarming, incredible

00:05:34.170 --> 00:05:36.470
defense and leave it at that? Well, can I just

00:05:36.470 --> 00:05:39.990
say this? Sure. I think that Seattle played like

00:05:39.990 --> 00:05:43.870
they knew they were the better team. And the

00:05:43.870 --> 00:05:45.790
Patriots also played like they knew that Seattle

00:05:45.790 --> 00:05:48.579
was the better team. And they knew that they

00:05:48.579 --> 00:05:52.079
basically couldn't allow things to spiral out

00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:54.160
of control, and so they just played pretty conservatively.

00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:57.639
If you take a look at the first half, both teams'

00:05:57.779 --> 00:06:00.639
defenses played really well. Listen, Seattle,

00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:04.000
correct me if I'm wrong, kids, Seattle didn't

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:05.819
get into the end zone until midway through the

00:06:05.819 --> 00:06:09.699
third quarter. Am I right or am I wrong? Actually,

00:06:09.860 --> 00:06:11.519
it was the fourth quarter, wasn't it? Yeah, I

00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:12.560
was about to say, I thought it was the fourth

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:18.199
quarter. And I think it was – Tarika was saying

00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:20.420
on the national broadcast how long it's been

00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:22.540
since there's been no touchdowns scored, and

00:06:22.540 --> 00:06:24.379
the last time was only like what – or the latest

00:06:24.379 --> 00:06:26.620
touchdown, which was like the Patriots -Rams

00:06:26.620 --> 00:06:29.279
Super Bowl that was like 13 -3. And I was just

00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:31.060
like, well, there you go. You said it. And sure

00:06:31.060 --> 00:06:33.879
enough, like three plays later, touchdown. Yeah,

00:06:33.980 --> 00:06:35.980
tomorrow. Yeah, that was basically the beginning

00:06:35.980 --> 00:06:39.000
of the fourth quarter. But it was a 12 -0 blowout.

00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:41.620
You know what I mean? That's a great way of putting

00:06:41.620 --> 00:06:43.000
that, by the way. I really think that was the

00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:45.839
case because – It did not feel like New England

00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:47.740
was going to come back. No, and the Seahawks

00:06:47.740 --> 00:06:49.360
knew that. That's why they didn't try anything

00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:52.180
really spectacular on offense because they knew

00:06:52.180 --> 00:06:54.600
they didn't have to. Did you feel, though, like

00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:57.819
when New England got that second touchdown to

00:06:57.819 --> 00:07:00.459
cut into making a two -score game that it was

00:07:00.459 --> 00:07:02.240
going to be like, oh, here we go? Because there

00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:03.959
was like 10 minutes left in the game. There was

00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:05.720
enough time left in the game that I was like,

00:07:05.779 --> 00:07:09.040
ooh. And then they got a punt. You're looking

00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:12.790
at the ticker. Actually, I'm wrong. They got

00:07:12.790 --> 00:07:17.389
the touchdown. Yeah. I mean, there was a moment

00:07:17.389 --> 00:07:19.250
where it was like, okay, I'm not shutting the

00:07:19.250 --> 00:07:21.829
game off. Right. I was about ready just to say,

00:07:21.889 --> 00:07:24.009
okay, let's just watch the closer or, you know,

00:07:24.029 --> 00:07:26.850
the next episode of Hijack or whatever. And then

00:07:26.850 --> 00:07:29.230
I hung in there. I hung in there for a little

00:07:29.230 --> 00:07:33.930
bit. Yeah. Okay. So the big bets, Cokewell, big

00:07:33.930 --> 00:07:36.910
bets. The hosts won this week, and we got saved

00:07:36.910 --> 00:07:43.399
by intern Dom. Very nice. I had a horrible weekend.

00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:46.959
Basketball, and of course, I went against everybody.

00:07:47.139 --> 00:07:51.060
I was trying to play chess, and I ended up playing

00:07:51.060 --> 00:07:53.720
tiddlywinks because I was the only one to take

00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:57.439
New England. But I was pretty close. I wasn't

00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:00.300
close on the score. That was fair. Dom? I know,

00:08:00.339 --> 00:08:02.019
that was wild. I was really surprised you took

00:08:02.019 --> 00:08:05.579
New England. Listen, I had to try and make up

00:08:05.579 --> 00:08:08.439
some times. I did. I'm not doing that again.

00:08:08.860 --> 00:08:11.720
But we had, what, three overtime games in basketball?

00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:14.120
It was a good weekend. It was a great, close

00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:15.620
weekend of basketball games. Including an amazing

00:08:15.620 --> 00:08:19.759
UNC -Duke game. Right. And I picked you and Goose

00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:23.720
picked Duke, Dom and I, and I took Dom. I was

00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:26.660
betting on Dom because I listened back to the

00:08:26.660 --> 00:08:29.300
show, and Dom said it was such conviction when

00:08:29.300 --> 00:08:30.920
it was time for him to pick. I was like, all

00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:32.840
right, he's got to know more basketball than

00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:34.340
I do, so I'm just going to go ahead and go with

00:08:34.340 --> 00:08:38.399
him. Came home for you. We all picked BYU, including

00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:41.700
Steve, one of our callers. Chris and Brad were

00:08:41.700 --> 00:08:44.460
the only ones to pick Houston correctly. But

00:08:44.460 --> 00:08:47.559
you went 2 -3. I went 1 -4. So we're both 8 -12

00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:49.980
right now. We are looking up because we have

00:08:49.980 --> 00:08:52.500
a six -game deficit against Goose right now.

00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:54.519
We've got to catch him. He only went 3 -2. He

00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:57.320
came back to earth after a 5 -0 week. Dom also

00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:00.980
went 3 -2. But Goose, in Goose fashion, only

00:09:00.980 --> 00:09:04.220
had 34 points. Dom had 40. So he won the tiebreaker.

00:09:04.860 --> 00:09:07.620
Brad also went 3 -2. Recovery for Brad, nice

00:09:07.620 --> 00:09:11.139
job, but he had 63 points. So Dom, thank you

00:09:11.139 --> 00:09:15.240
very much. So $100 on behalf of us and Coquel

00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:17.659
Casino and Resort going to South Coast Special

00:09:17.659 --> 00:09:20.379
Olympics. We'll play it again this Friday. Very

00:09:20.379 --> 00:09:24.440
nice. Classic 2 -3 from Justin. Have you literally

00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:26.779
had nothing but 2 -3 weeks? I must have. You

00:09:26.779 --> 00:09:29.269
have. Yeah, for four weeks. Four weeks in a row.

00:09:29.269 --> 00:09:31.029
You've got to get off that schneid, buddy. I

00:09:31.029 --> 00:09:32.629
don't know. I don't know what to do. I would

00:09:32.629 --> 00:09:34.470
love to have had a two and three week this week.

00:09:35.070 --> 00:09:37.070
All right, let's do it. We do a new thing now

00:09:37.070 --> 00:09:39.710
on Mondays here. We call it Good, Bad, and Ugly.

00:09:41.190 --> 00:09:45.750
So we talk about the good things that happen

00:09:45.750 --> 00:09:48.309
on the weekend and the bad things and, of course,

00:09:48.330 --> 00:09:52.370
the U -G -L -Y things. You want to start with

00:09:52.370 --> 00:09:54.470
your good for the weekend? Yes, sure. Let's start

00:09:54.470 --> 00:09:57.600
with Nate Biddle coming back. And he was... Pretty

00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:59.340
much the Ducks' best player as well. He went

00:09:59.340 --> 00:10:02.460
6 -14 from the field. Did not have a great three

00:10:02.460 --> 00:10:03.940
-point shooting night. Only went one for eight.

00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:05.860
But 10 -14 from the free throw line. And just

00:10:05.860 --> 00:10:09.159
showed that, man, this guy is much needed for

00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:11.519
this team. He's a great player. And he's going

00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:13.580
to be, I believe, a very good NBA player as well.

00:10:13.659 --> 00:10:16.279
So good on Nate Biddle for coming back. And we

00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:18.019
didn't know if he was going to. You've been saying

00:10:18.019 --> 00:10:21.070
it, though. And here he is. 14 points in the

00:10:21.070 --> 00:10:24.070
first half, and they were right down to the edge

00:10:24.070 --> 00:10:26.049
with Purdue. They got Indiana tonight. We'll

00:10:26.049 --> 00:10:28.590
talk about that in the last segment. My good

00:10:28.590 --> 00:10:33.009
would be under the lights in the Bay Area, Sam

00:10:33.009 --> 00:10:35.610
Darnold winning a Super Bowl. Everybody out on

00:10:35.610 --> 00:10:39.149
Sam Darnold, including yours truly. The 28 -year

00:10:39.149 --> 00:10:44.009
-old has an NFL title to his name. He belongs

00:10:44.009 --> 00:10:47.929
in the discussion for... perseverance if nothing

00:10:47.929 --> 00:10:52.409
else his fifth team in eight seasons like a like

00:10:52.409 --> 00:10:57.409
a trent dilferish type performance in terms of

00:10:57.409 --> 00:11:01.649
very apropos not screwing things up for his team

00:11:01.649 --> 00:11:05.570
and now he's got a ring 19 of 38 202 yards a

00:11:05.570 --> 00:11:08.509
touchdown not sparkling not going to be an mvp

00:11:08.509 --> 00:11:13.690
that went to the running back so you know good

00:11:13.690 --> 00:11:17.139
on sam Honestly, good on Sam Darnold. And shame

00:11:17.139 --> 00:11:20.980
on all those teams that turned on him and threw

00:11:20.980 --> 00:11:23.159
him away. And look what he's done. The Jets,

00:11:23.259 --> 00:11:26.519
the Vikings. The 49ers. Well, I'm just going

00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:30.860
to tell you. Kyle Shanahan said that Sam Darnold

00:11:30.860 --> 00:11:33.360
needs to go to somewhere and start. And it should

00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:35.460
have probably been in San Francisco. He probably

00:11:35.460 --> 00:11:37.240
should have stayed in San Francisco. I don't

00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:38.679
know. Rather than paying Brock Purdy that amount

00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:41.600
of money? I don't know. I'll do my bad next,

00:11:41.620 --> 00:11:43.240
so the good, bad, the ugly, the Danny and Justin

00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:45.220
radio program, the Judge John Warren going to

00:11:45.220 --> 00:11:47.200
come up here, talk a little beaver basketball

00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:49.799
and baseball coming up in just about 10 minutes.

00:11:50.059 --> 00:11:53.659
Lindsey Vonn, she was defiant, said, I am going

00:11:53.659 --> 00:11:56.200
to go ski in the Winter Olympics, even though

00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.679
I am just recovering from an ACL injury and a

00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:03.419
badly injured right knee, a badly injured left

00:12:03.419 --> 00:12:06.720
knee and a rebuilt right knee. Well. Blew it

00:12:06.720 --> 00:12:08.740
up on Sunday. Frightening crash left her with

00:12:08.740 --> 00:12:11.620
a broken leg. She had to be airlifted. She's

00:12:11.620 --> 00:12:15.740
out. Her career probably now done. That is just

00:12:15.740 --> 00:12:20.340
bad and sad. It was. And my slight spin zone

00:12:20.340 --> 00:12:23.639
to this is, so I actually didn't see the crash.

00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:26.019
I read about it as much as anything. It was horrible

00:12:26.019 --> 00:12:27.960
to read about, and I'm sure it was actually worse

00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:30.019
to see. She lost control right after she got

00:12:30.019 --> 00:12:31.419
out of the start house. What I understand, though,

00:12:31.500 --> 00:12:34.379
this is my slight spin on it, and I'll say that

00:12:34.379 --> 00:12:37.960
from what I understand, her doing that basically

00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.500
was because she was absolutely 100 going for

00:12:40.500 --> 00:12:42.779
it and she recognized that she couldn't just

00:12:42.779 --> 00:12:44.720
take it easy out of the gate like she had to

00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:47.179
push herself to that level and so i think good

00:12:47.179 --> 00:12:48.879
on her for going out like that if you're gonna

00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.559
go out go out trying to do run through the wall

00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:55.519
don't walk into it and so obviously not the way

00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:56.980
you want to end your career but i think that

00:12:56.980 --> 00:12:59.100
i i commend her at least a little bit for going

00:12:59.100 --> 00:13:01.120
out and pushing herself the way that she did.

00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:02.580
All right, Baby J, what's your bad of the weekend?

00:13:02.820 --> 00:13:05.100
My bad was the entire game of the Super Bowl.

00:13:05.259 --> 00:13:07.940
That was the worst Super Bowl I've ever watched.

00:13:08.100 --> 00:13:09.279
It's not even close, I don't think. Really? Worse

00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:12.879
than the Rams -Patriots 13 -3 Super Bowl? At

00:13:12.879 --> 00:13:14.820
least I felt like both teams could win that one.

00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:17.899
I actually thought the Rams could win that one.

00:13:17.899 --> 00:13:22.120
When did you get the sense that New England was

00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:25.850
finally done? When it was like 12 -0. Oh, 12

00:13:25.850 --> 00:13:27.909
-0. I was like, yeah, I think that this is probably

00:13:27.909 --> 00:13:30.950
it. No, it wasn't 6 -0. I mean, at one point

00:13:30.950 --> 00:13:34.389
it just was like, well, if the Patriots can get

00:13:34.389 --> 00:13:36.490
a touchdown, then it's a one -score game again.

00:13:36.590 --> 00:13:38.169
But you never felt like they were going to score

00:13:38.169 --> 00:13:40.289
a touchdown. They didn't get to over half field

00:13:40.289 --> 00:13:42.490
until I think it was the fourth quarter. They

00:13:42.490 --> 00:13:44.909
had four first downs going into the fourth quarter.

00:13:44.990 --> 00:13:47.470
I'm not disagreeing with you. I just like getting

00:13:47.470 --> 00:13:49.750
you lit up is what I like to do. I'm pretty lit

00:13:49.750 --> 00:13:51.950
up about this because there was no good quarterback

00:13:51.950 --> 00:13:54.309
play. That's not interesting. to watch the stakes

00:13:54.309 --> 00:13:56.610
of the game good for seattle you want a super

00:13:56.610 --> 00:13:59.269
bowl nobody else cares if there is no stakes

00:13:59.269 --> 00:14:01.389
for any major quarterback what do we care about

00:14:01.389 --> 00:14:03.710
in nfl we care about our team winning and we

00:14:03.710 --> 00:14:05.750
care about how many super bowls does patrick

00:14:05.750 --> 00:14:08.350
mahomes have and where we rank him and how does

00:14:08.350 --> 00:14:10.470
tom brady stack up with everybody else now and

00:14:10.470 --> 00:14:12.250
of course he's probably the goat but that sam

00:14:12.250 --> 00:14:13.870
donald winning a super bowl that doesn't do anything

00:14:14.939 --> 00:14:16.799
He's not about to win four Super Bowls and become

00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:19.179
a great quarterback. I still like the story.

00:14:19.220 --> 00:14:20.659
I don't even think that we can sit there and

00:14:20.659 --> 00:14:22.379
say, I'm glad he didn't have a great game, by

00:14:22.379 --> 00:14:24.159
the way, because we don't even have to sit here

00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:26.120
today and say, well, maybe Sam Darnold's an elite

00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:28.820
quarterback. Nope, he wasn't. It turns out that

00:14:28.820 --> 00:14:31.139
their weapons are really good. He's really solid.

00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:33.440
He's probably somewhere in the 10 to 15 range.

00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:35.419
And he had a great defense. And the defense is

00:14:35.419 --> 00:14:37.700
what won him the game. He's a Trent Dilfer, a

00:14:37.700 --> 00:14:40.700
Joe Flacco. He's a serviceable quarterback. He's

00:14:40.700 --> 00:14:42.259
a serviceable quarterback. Which is fine. He

00:14:42.259 --> 00:14:44.320
can make a great living as a serviceable quarterback.

00:14:44.460 --> 00:14:46.679
Just to finish off my point, is I think that

00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:48.600
the circumstances of the game, the fact that,

00:14:48.620 --> 00:14:51.299
again, New England knew that Seattle was the

00:14:51.299 --> 00:14:52.860
better team. Seattle knew that Seattle was the

00:14:52.860 --> 00:14:56.500
better team. Nobody was really trying to be aggressive.

00:14:57.039 --> 00:14:59.779
And that was an issue with the visual entertainment

00:14:59.779 --> 00:15:02.320
of the game, which there was none. The Danny

00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:05.159
and Justin radio program on the number one sports

00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:07.759
station in the Valley. It's Fox Sports Eugene,

00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:10.100
also on the coast at Fox Sports Newport. Thanks

00:15:10.100 --> 00:15:12.259
for tuning in. John Warren, the judge, coming

00:15:12.259 --> 00:15:15.200
up from Cajo Radio in just a few moments. All

00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:16.620
right, since you're on a roll, I'm going to let

00:15:16.620 --> 00:15:20.220
you go ahead and do the ugly. The ugly. The commercials.

00:15:20.620 --> 00:15:24.120
Even worse than the game. I actually wrote down.

00:15:24.259 --> 00:15:25.580
I have a feeling you didn't have a really good

00:15:25.580 --> 00:15:28.539
time on Sunday. I had a good time. My mom and

00:15:28.539 --> 00:15:30.399
I were on the same page. Anytime I'm with somebody

00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:32.059
on the same page, if I'm watching a bad movie,

00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:34.539
whatever it is, it's fine. So I wrote down the

00:15:34.539 --> 00:15:37.100
four commercials that weren't horrendous. Because

00:15:37.100 --> 00:15:38.899
by default, I thought the commercials were just

00:15:38.899 --> 00:15:40.980
really bad. Formula was just throw a bunch of

00:15:40.980 --> 00:15:42.419
celebrities out there and you'll do it. Okay.

00:15:42.460 --> 00:15:44.779
The Kurt Russell, Michelob Ultra commercial where

00:15:44.779 --> 00:15:46.620
they were skiing. I thought that was pretty good.

00:15:46.860 --> 00:15:47.740
I didn't hate it. Well, you know why they brought

00:15:47.740 --> 00:15:50.419
that back? Because he was kind of reprising his

00:15:50.419 --> 00:15:56.370
role as. as her brooks miracle right okay the

00:15:56.370 --> 00:15:59.230
hockey right in lake plaza i thought it was good

00:15:59.230 --> 00:16:01.590
i thought it was pretty solid uh my mom didn't

00:16:01.590 --> 00:16:04.370
hate the liquid death commercial which i can't

00:16:04.370 --> 00:16:06.840
really remember but I think Liquid Death has

00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:09.159
some of the worst branding ever. Why do you want

00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:11.580
to be called Liquid Death if you're a drink?

00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:13.919
I don't know. It doesn't make sense to me. The

00:16:13.919 --> 00:16:19.039
Uber Eats commercial with I have MM and BC, which

00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:20.379
I don't remember who those celebrities are at

00:16:20.379 --> 00:16:21.919
the top of my head right now. But I think there

00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:23.759
was an Uber Eats commercial that was pretty decent.

00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:26.960
And then so I thought the TurboTax commercial

00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:29.360
with Adrian Brody was kind of funny. But, you

00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:31.120
know, it didn't work because my mom was like,

00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:32.539
what was that commercial for again? And I was

00:16:32.539 --> 00:16:35.230
like, oh, it was State Farm. It didn't even give

00:16:35.230 --> 00:16:37.909
you a good example of what it actually was selling.

00:16:38.129 --> 00:16:39.850
You know what I'm saying? So how could it be

00:16:39.850 --> 00:16:43.610
a good commercial? Commercials are bad. I didn't

00:16:43.610 --> 00:16:44.970
pay attention to a lot of the commercials. I

00:16:44.970 --> 00:16:47.230
paid attention to some of them. Probably did

00:16:47.230 --> 00:16:49.549
yourself a favor. I did myself a favor. My ugly,

00:16:49.710 --> 00:16:51.570
as we wind up the good, bad, and the ugly here

00:16:51.570 --> 00:16:54.309
on the Danny Justin Radio Program, is the vitriol

00:16:54.309 --> 00:16:56.690
on social media for the Bad Bunny Halftime Show.

00:16:57.269 --> 00:16:59.889
I mean, he delivered a third. Listen, I don't

00:16:59.889 --> 00:17:02.320
speak Spanish. But you don't have to speak Spanish

00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:04.380
to enjoy the music and dance around, man. I was

00:17:04.380 --> 00:17:07.000
in my chair. I was doing a little chair dancing,

00:17:07.119 --> 00:17:10.240
man. I was chair dancing. I thought it was fantastic.

00:17:10.500 --> 00:17:14.900
I think it was high energy. Like I said, my daughter

00:17:14.900 --> 00:17:16.619
speaks a little Spanish. She understands some

00:17:16.619 --> 00:17:19.680
of it. I did not. 13 minutes got everybody up

00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:21.940
and going. And he had a few other tricks. Of

00:17:21.940 --> 00:17:25.500
course, Lady Gaga coming up with a salsa -fied

00:17:25.500 --> 00:17:28.900
version of Die With a Smile. That was awesome.

00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:32.019
And I think the salute and saying, we're all

00:17:32.019 --> 00:17:36.019
America. Puerto Rico, and he named other. All

00:17:36.019 --> 00:17:38.240
the countries in North and South America. Right.

00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:40.400
I thought it was awesome. I thought it was great.

00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:42.220
I thought it was the only part about the game

00:17:42.220 --> 00:17:44.279
that actually felt like a Super Bowl. And to

00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:46.400
have people coming out and bashing him and saying

00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:49.519
he's un -American and all that, it was just,

00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:51.799
to me, it's just like, come on. Really? And you

00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:54.059
know what he did? He came out there, and he wasn't

00:17:54.059 --> 00:17:56.039
divisive. He gave them nothing to complain about.

00:17:56.140 --> 00:17:57.440
You could sit there and say, would I have liked

00:17:57.440 --> 00:18:00.160
to understand what he was saying a little bit?

00:18:00.420 --> 00:18:03.079
Absolutely. I also don't speak Spanish. So would

00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:05.000
that maybe have been good to have some subtitles

00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:06.619
there? I wouldn't have hated it, to be honest

00:18:06.619 --> 00:18:09.619
with you. But I also find that what he did, I

00:18:09.619 --> 00:18:12.440
don't see how, based on what he actually did

00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:14.960
in his performance, he chose the high road. You

00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:17.119
can't complain about the way he handled that.

00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:20.839
Yeah, especially him crashing through. The roof

00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:23.079
down through, that was a pre -can thing. That

00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:26.220
looked awesome. It was great. The cinematography

00:18:26.220 --> 00:18:28.059
was awesome. So I'm just saying all of that,

00:18:28.140 --> 00:18:30.440
I probably could have put him in the good category

00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.400
as well. But unfortunately, when you started

00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:35.660
reading all the hate that was getting spat out

00:18:35.660 --> 00:18:38.839
over it, it just keeps amplifying the divide

00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:40.640
that's still in this country. We are not a political

00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:42.960
program. We are not going there except for this.

00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:47.339
Except who that is and what they were doing.

00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:53.940
because that is artistic. That's artistry. Celebrate

00:18:53.940 --> 00:18:55.640
that. That's what we should be celebrating in

00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:58.700
this country. And that's a guy that has not caved

00:18:58.700 --> 00:19:02.200
into having his music in English, by the way.

00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.500
He wants to do it in his native tongue. So there

00:19:04.500 --> 00:19:06.440
you go. That's the good, bad, and the ugly here

00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:09.400
on the Danny and Justin radio program. All right,

00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:11.539
so we've got a lot still to get through. We've

00:19:11.539 --> 00:19:15.140
got a lot of... basketball to get through because

00:19:15.140 --> 00:19:17.519
Oregon men's and women's were on the floor this

00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:20.980
past weekend. So are Oregon State men's and women's.

00:19:21.650 --> 00:19:26.690
Softball was at the NFCA Opening Classic in Clearwater.

00:19:26.769 --> 00:19:28.930
Did not turn out very well. They went 2 -3. We'll

00:19:28.930 --> 00:19:30.809
talk about that in the last segment. But we're

00:19:30.809 --> 00:19:33.230
going to take a break, and we are going to head

00:19:33.230 --> 00:19:37.849
to John Warren, the judge. So the Beaver baseball

00:19:37.849 --> 00:19:40.690
team is highly ranked. They're anywhere between

00:19:40.690 --> 00:19:44.549
7 -12 in the country. But basketball, the women's

00:19:44.549 --> 00:19:47.829
team, has got an inside track to the WCC regular

00:19:47.829 --> 00:19:50.670
season title. The men have been showing some...

00:19:50.670 --> 00:19:53.130
some sparks of life under Wayne Tinkle. We'll

00:19:53.130 --> 00:19:55.450
talk about all of that with the judge from KGO

00:19:55.450 --> 00:19:57.910
Radio, John Warren, next on the Danny and Justin

00:19:57.910 --> 00:20:03.630
Radio Program. Thanks for tuning in, friends,

00:20:03.650 --> 00:20:05.529
to the number one sports station in the Valley.

00:20:05.890 --> 00:20:08.190
It's the Danny and Justin Radio Program on Fox

the Bigfoot Beverages studio. Coming up in a

00:20:13.630 --> 00:20:17.920
moment, we'll talk about the Ducks' loss. to

00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:20.240
the Buckeyes in women's basketball. The men falling

00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:23.700
short against the Boilermakers. Ducks men play

00:20:23.700 --> 00:20:27.740
tonight. It'll be on FS1 530 as Oregon takes

00:20:27.740 --> 00:20:30.259
on Indiana. But first, head on over to the Oregon

00:20:30.259 --> 00:20:34.660
Man Colleges hotline at 541 -343 -5673 and welcome

00:20:34.660 --> 00:20:37.339
in our good friend... As court is in session,

00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:40.380
it's his honor, the judge, the honorable John

00:20:40.380 --> 00:20:43.099
Warren, joining us from KGO Radio 1240. You can

00:20:43.099 --> 00:20:45.180
listen to him up there in the Corvallis Albany

00:20:45.180 --> 00:20:47.099
Market. He knows everything, Beavers. He is going

00:20:47.099 --> 00:20:48.960
to forget more about Oregon State than Justin

00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:51.500
and I will ever learn combined. And he joins

00:20:51.500 --> 00:20:55.500
us right now. Did you say Newport, Fox Sports

00:20:55.500 --> 00:21:01.500
Newport? Yeah. Wow. Yeah. I like the idea that

00:21:01.500 --> 00:21:03.769
I can be heard in Newport. You are. You are.

00:21:03.930 --> 00:21:06.950
Right now, being heard, all the ships at sea

00:21:06.950 --> 00:21:09.990
are listening to you right now. Well, hello to

00:21:09.990 --> 00:21:11.750
all my friends in Newport. I don't have any,

00:21:11.789 --> 00:21:13.849
but hello anyway. You're going to make some right

00:21:13.849 --> 00:21:16.769
now, John. First off, did you even care about

00:21:16.769 --> 00:21:21.970
this Super Bowl? Yeah, because we carry the Seahawks

00:21:21.970 --> 00:21:27.089
on our station. Okay. So you didn't care. It's

00:21:27.089 --> 00:21:29.990
the second year. Prior to that, I hated the Seahawks

00:21:29.990 --> 00:21:33.369
because I grew up in Portland. I grew up in Portland,

00:21:33.509 --> 00:21:36.710
and we had the Mariners and the Seahawks rammed

00:21:36.710 --> 00:21:38.269
down our throats, and I hated it because I'm

00:21:38.269 --> 00:21:42.049
very loyal to my civicness, if you know. So,

00:21:42.230 --> 00:21:44.710
you know, the Blazers and Sonics were such a

00:21:44.710 --> 00:21:47.269
great rival for so many years of my life. And

00:21:47.269 --> 00:21:50.970
then we had to deal with the Seahawks and the

00:21:50.970 --> 00:21:53.390
Mariners, and I was jealous as a youngster, a

00:21:53.390 --> 00:21:56.650
kid, that we didn't have the pros. And so I'm

00:21:56.650 --> 00:21:58.789
like, forget that. I'm going to go find a different

00:21:58.789 --> 00:22:03.150
team. I found other teams to root for, and the

00:22:03.150 --> 00:22:06.150
Cardinals have been my team since 1974. Uh -oh.

00:22:06.150 --> 00:22:09.730
I know. See, I've been keeping this from Justin

00:22:09.730 --> 00:22:14.349
for a while, John, just telling you. Justin's

00:22:14.349 --> 00:22:19.410
a Cardinal fan? No, he's a Cubs fan. Oh, no,

00:22:19.509 --> 00:22:21.150
I'm talking about the football Cardinals. Oh,

00:22:21.150 --> 00:22:24.069
okay. Sorry. That's fine. That's fine. Okay.

00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:28.259
Yeah, yeah. We got off on a wrong track there.

00:22:28.539 --> 00:22:30.619
We went to different sports all night, and we

00:22:30.619 --> 00:22:32.740
hear Cardinals, and all of a sudden our Cubsdom

00:22:32.740 --> 00:22:35.900
comes out. I understand that the football Cardinals

00:22:35.900 --> 00:22:39.920
aren't really recognized. Not at all. The judge,

00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:42.220
John Warren, joining us. Let's talk basketball

00:22:42.220 --> 00:22:46.140
first. Wayne Tinkle Squad, kind of a Jekyll and

00:22:46.140 --> 00:22:50.420
Hyde team this season. They string a couple of

00:22:50.420 --> 00:22:52.220
games together. We're just like, wow, I think

00:22:52.220 --> 00:22:54.779
they got it going. And then they drop. Of course,

00:22:54.819 --> 00:22:57.579
Gonzaga was just loaded for bear when they came

00:22:57.579 --> 00:22:59.980
into Gillicoliseum on Saturday. They drop a 20

00:22:59.980 --> 00:23:05.559
-point game to No. 6 Gonzaga. But is this a team

00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:08.440
that could shock? people like they did a few

00:23:08.440 --> 00:23:11.539
years ago in the conference tournament and make

00:23:11.539 --> 00:23:14.019
a run in the NCAA tournament? Or is that just

00:23:14.019 --> 00:23:19.420
wishful thinking? No, no. No, they won't. I will

00:23:19.420 --> 00:23:22.180
say that I mentioned this on our show today that

00:23:22.180 --> 00:23:25.420
I was really pleased because it was so fun to

00:23:25.420 --> 00:23:28.559
be in Gill with it full. That only happened last

00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:31.470
year when they played and beat Gonzaga. So that

00:23:31.470 --> 00:23:33.710
was fun. And then here we are. It was full again.

00:23:33.849 --> 00:23:35.349
That was great. The atmosphere was electric.

00:23:35.589 --> 00:23:38.490
The fan base was into it. And there were 10 lead

00:23:38.490 --> 00:23:40.990
changes all in the first half. And it was, what,

00:23:41.089 --> 00:23:43.569
four -point game at halftime. And then the Beavers

00:23:43.569 --> 00:23:47.049
hung around. And around the last six or seven

00:23:47.049 --> 00:23:50.289
minutes, the better team pulled away. Yes, it

00:23:50.289 --> 00:23:54.910
was 20. But it wasn't until really the end. And,

00:23:54.910 --> 00:23:58.930
I mean, there's. nothing there's no shame in

00:23:58.930 --> 00:24:01.049
losing to the sixth ranked team in the nation

00:24:01.049 --> 00:24:05.250
when you're a 500 team and they have a guy like

00:24:05.250 --> 00:24:08.250
Graham E .K. who is so good yeah and there's

00:24:08.250 --> 00:24:10.450
no shame in that especially when you play them

00:24:10.450 --> 00:24:14.190
straight up for about two -thirds maybe a little

00:24:14.190 --> 00:24:16.690
more than that three three quarters of the game

00:24:16.690 --> 00:24:19.450
and then they eventually pulled away because

00:24:19.450 --> 00:24:22.509
of uh you know smart moves coaching wise but

00:24:22.509 --> 00:24:25.779
also just great talent Yeah, and to your point,

00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:27.640
if you just want to take a look at the stat lines,

00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:31.660
so this stat line would normally be okay in a

00:24:31.660 --> 00:24:33.220
game, except for I'm going to tell you the other

00:24:33.220 --> 00:24:36.019
stat line. Oregon State shoots 44 % from the

00:24:36.019 --> 00:24:40.079
field, 55 % from three, and that's 10 of 18.

00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:42.720
That's just like taking five shots. They were

00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:44.700
only 13 of 18 from the free throw line, left

00:24:44.700 --> 00:24:46.960
a few points there. They only turn it over nine

00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:49.559
times. But, wow, look at that stat line. I had

00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:51.619
to look at it twice. Gonzaga only turned the

00:24:51.619 --> 00:24:54.700
ball over twice. in a game. That's incredible.

00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:58.200
And like you said, and you're right on, they

00:24:58.200 --> 00:25:01.279
were coming in off of losing to Portland, and

00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:03.460
it was only their second loss of the year overall,

00:25:03.819 --> 00:25:06.599
and a lot of things, streaks were snapped and

00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:10.339
all that, and they were not going to be denied.

00:25:10.740 --> 00:25:14.579
And, you know, you usually take a team's best

00:25:14.579 --> 00:25:16.940
shot in the first 10 minutes, but Oregon State,

00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:20.680
hang right. with them. They were down 38 -34

00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:23.359
at the half, but they got a cheap call. I will

00:25:23.359 --> 00:25:25.579
say that. They're better, but they got a cheap

00:25:25.579 --> 00:25:28.900
call with 1 .2 seconds left in the half, and

00:25:28.900 --> 00:25:31.480
EK got to go to the free -throw line and stretch

00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:34.240
it to 38 -34, when really it should have been

00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:37.200
36 -34. Coming out in the second half, you could

00:25:37.200 --> 00:25:39.519
kind of tell they were going to make some moves

00:25:39.519 --> 00:25:41.660
and pull away, but the Beavers still kind of

00:25:41.660 --> 00:25:46.549
hung tough. And then they stretched it out and

00:25:46.549 --> 00:25:50.210
took advantage of some weaknesses inside. And

00:25:50.210 --> 00:25:53.069
you knew it was going to be. But you just looked

00:25:53.069 --> 00:25:55.829
at the score, 81 -61, that's a blowout win. But

00:25:55.829 --> 00:25:58.130
it wasn't like that. And for the way that the

00:25:58.130 --> 00:26:00.529
Beavers have played this year, losing to teams

00:26:00.529 --> 00:26:03.950
they shouldn't lose to or losing ugly, I liked

00:26:03.950 --> 00:26:07.309
everything I saw. And they lost to a far better

00:26:07.309 --> 00:26:10.849
team. And Josiah Lake, he's a guy that just obviously

00:26:10.849 --> 00:26:13.779
one of the – Leaders on this team, he basically

00:26:13.779 --> 00:26:16.640
leads the team in almost every category. He's

00:26:16.640 --> 00:26:18.200
one of those things, though. He's a junior, and

00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:20.480
usually in the past it's been like, okay, you

00:26:20.480 --> 00:26:22.180
get another season of Josiah Lake, you can see

00:26:22.180 --> 00:26:24.779
what he does when they build some other pieces

00:26:24.779 --> 00:26:26.880
around him. But, you know, how much concern do

00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:28.819
you have about just being able to bring a guy

00:26:28.819 --> 00:26:32.680
like that back for another season? Well, he wouldn't

00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:35.039
be going anywhere as far as any draft goes. So

00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:40.200
in a normal world, he would come back. And things

00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:42.279
are not normal, as we all know, because of the

00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:47.220
portal and money. And who knows? So I don't know.

00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:51.160
He's a former walk -on. And, you know, he's the

00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:52.980
favorite of the fans because he's been here for

00:26:52.980 --> 00:26:55.599
four years. He may have another year of eligibility.

00:26:55.700 --> 00:26:59.480
But he's been here for a while and is kind of

00:26:59.480 --> 00:27:01.880
the old -fashioned model of sticking with the

00:27:01.880 --> 00:27:06.279
ball club. But, like you say, one never knows.

00:27:06.839 --> 00:27:10.680
And in this day and age, guys, I know we're all

00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:15.200
in the business of sports shows. I'm going to

00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:18.980
just be straight up with you. It's not the same.

00:27:19.259 --> 00:27:22.359
It's just not the same anymore. The more I hear

00:27:22.359 --> 00:27:25.859
the stories of guys getting millions, the more

00:27:25.859 --> 00:27:29.160
I hear. jumping from school to school, the more

00:27:29.160 --> 00:27:31.900
I see it with Oregon State and how they're trying

00:27:31.900 --> 00:27:34.259
to keep players and how they're trying to come

00:27:34.259 --> 00:27:36.859
up with money. They've got like two, two and

00:27:36.859 --> 00:27:38.980
a half million or whatever it is for basketball.

00:27:39.200 --> 00:27:42.460
Well, Gonzaga has five million. They barely have

00:27:42.460 --> 00:27:44.500
five to seven million for football from what

00:27:44.500 --> 00:27:47.180
I hear. I don't really know which isn't going

00:27:47.180 --> 00:27:49.579
to compete. You got I mean, where's all this

00:27:49.579 --> 00:27:52.240
money coming from for all these schools? And

00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:55.839
I am so jaded by it all. I mean, I hate to dump

00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.630
on your. your show here with all this, but you're

00:27:58.630 --> 00:28:04.009
not. I just can't think of players, to Justin's

00:28:04.009 --> 00:28:07.190
question, I can't think of players anymore through

00:28:07.190 --> 00:28:12.809
the lens of keeping a guy or whatever. It's so

00:28:12.809 --> 00:28:16.990
seedy to me. I hope you understand what I'm saying.

00:28:17.130 --> 00:28:18.910
Oh, absolutely. So I think there was a quote

00:28:18.910 --> 00:28:22.069
from UConn head coach Gino Arama. I think it

00:28:22.069 --> 00:28:24.539
came out this weekend. where people were talking

00:28:24.539 --> 00:28:27.259
about $100 ,000 for this player, $200 ,000, $300

00:28:27.259 --> 00:28:28.460
,000. He says, well, you know what? If they're

00:28:28.460 --> 00:28:31.640
employees, can I fire them if they not perform

00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:34.319
on the court for four or five games? If they

00:28:34.319 --> 00:28:35.740
want to be employees and they're not going to

00:28:35.740 --> 00:28:38.740
go, can I just fire them? And it brings up an

00:28:38.740 --> 00:28:41.019
incredibly interesting point, don't you think?

00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:44.940
Yeah, and it keeps coming up over and over again,

00:28:44.980 --> 00:28:49.710
and it's a theme on our show sometimes. Especially

00:28:49.710 --> 00:28:52.109
when Mike's out of town. I take up on it. I don't

00:28:52.109 --> 00:28:54.549
even try to. I'm like, okay, I've got to stop

00:28:54.549 --> 00:28:57.349
complaining and shaking my fist at the clouds.

00:28:57.690 --> 00:29:00.490
I can't help it. Another story will come up about

00:29:00.490 --> 00:29:05.609
some unclearness in the system. And, well, we're

00:29:05.609 --> 00:29:08.950
not sure about this. And then everyone's saying,

00:29:09.029 --> 00:29:10.609
well, we need more guardrails. Well, you know

00:29:10.609 --> 00:29:16.089
what? Every time that some person or entity goes

00:29:16.089 --> 00:29:19.180
and makes a guardrail, An athlete takes it to

00:29:19.180 --> 00:29:21.259
court and wins. You don't hear about it because

00:29:21.259 --> 00:29:25.059
it happens within days. They win, and you can't.

00:29:25.059 --> 00:29:30.059
The NCAA or leagues can't put the brakes on stuff

00:29:30.059 --> 00:29:33.819
because the courts keep saying you can't restrict

00:29:33.819 --> 00:29:35.440
the players. You can't restrict the players.

00:29:35.700 --> 00:29:39.059
Well, here's the problem, and I've been saying

00:29:39.059 --> 00:29:42.140
this for a long time. The NCAA and the schools

00:29:42.140 --> 00:29:47.539
think. That this is all still, that student -athlete

00:29:47.539 --> 00:29:50.420
is still a part of this. They're not. These are

00:29:50.420 --> 00:29:54.480
pros. So the problem is that the mindset is you've

00:29:54.480 --> 00:29:58.619
got one foot in academics, student -athlete,

00:29:58.619 --> 00:30:02.740
and are they eligible? And the other foot in

00:30:02.740 --> 00:30:06.519
paying these guys or these players. You can't

00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:09.079
have it that way, and that's why there's so much

00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:13.720
confusion over eligibility, over dollars, over

00:30:13.720 --> 00:30:17.200
where the money comes, all of that, until one

00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:20.680
leg comes out of academics and they say, okay,

00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:22.920
everybody's pros, now we deal with it that way.

00:30:23.059 --> 00:30:26.859
You know, even the pros have, and it's because

00:30:26.859 --> 00:30:29.039
of collective bargaining, which means there's

00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:31.079
representation, which is not happening in the

00:30:31.079 --> 00:30:35.119
college. Even the pros have limits on free agency.

00:30:35.690 --> 00:30:39.289
In college, there's no limits. They come and

00:30:39.289 --> 00:30:44.009
go as often as they want, and it is unsustainable.

00:30:44.009 --> 00:30:47.630
It's just when is a collapse going to happen.

00:30:47.690 --> 00:30:50.730
No one thinks that way. I know that sky is falling,

00:30:50.809 --> 00:30:53.069
and I'm being real dramatic about this, but I

00:30:53.069 --> 00:30:55.750
have seen sports go from this beautiful thing

00:30:55.750 --> 00:30:58.690
that college sports was to not even the pros.

00:30:58.950 --> 00:31:02.309
They're stuck in this weird middle ground where

00:31:02.309 --> 00:31:07.529
it's all crazy. crumbling around us while these

00:31:07.529 --> 00:31:09.589
kids are making a ton of money before they're

00:31:09.589 --> 00:31:13.509
even 22 years old. And some kids are not good

00:31:13.509 --> 00:31:15.589
enough to make it in the pros, but they're really,

00:31:15.670 --> 00:31:17.970
really good college players. Getting a couple

00:31:17.970 --> 00:31:21.430
of million dollars, I would say, son, stay in

00:31:21.430 --> 00:31:23.289
college as long as you can because you're probably

00:31:23.289 --> 00:31:25.359
not going to make that money in the pros. Yeah,

00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:28.079
that is the reasonable voice of the judge, John

00:31:28.079 --> 00:31:31.519
Warren, from KGO Radio 1240 up there in the Valley.

00:31:31.940 --> 00:31:35.259
It's Corvallis, Albany area. You can listen to

00:31:35.259 --> 00:31:37.539
him on the Joe Beaver Show. It goes from 11 to

00:31:37.539 --> 00:31:41.460
1 every weekday. When Mike Parker's in town,

00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:44.039
he's there with him. Otherwise, it's John as

00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:46.240
well, and he joins us here on the Danny and Justin

00:31:46.240 --> 00:31:48.960
radio program. And, Judge, it's already started

00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:51.920
to happen in college basketball with players

00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:53.920
that have been drafted or gone through the draft

00:31:53.920 --> 00:31:56.720
process. going back and playing college basketball.

00:31:57.059 --> 00:31:58.759
Have you heard about this latest theory that,

00:31:58.799 --> 00:32:00.859
hey, maybe this could happen in the NFL where

00:32:00.859 --> 00:32:03.039
a guy, he's maybe expected to be a late -round

00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:05.279
pick but goes undrafted and decides to go back?

00:32:05.380 --> 00:32:06.819
At that point, it's just going to come down to

00:32:06.819 --> 00:32:10.200
some ruling by some judge. It's kind of getting

00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:14.359
to this place of the Wild West. Well, it's funny

00:32:14.359 --> 00:32:17.579
because we, on that issue alone, you know it's

00:32:17.579 --> 00:32:20.640
bad, guys, when you joke about something and

00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:23.579
a few weeks later it comes true. We literally,

00:32:23.859 --> 00:32:27.119
remember when the G League players went to Louisville?

00:32:27.220 --> 00:32:29.900
And I think that neither one of them have made

00:32:29.900 --> 00:32:32.740
it, and they're gone by now. But a month or so

00:32:32.740 --> 00:32:35.900
ago, these two guys that were playing in the

00:32:35.900 --> 00:32:38.259
G League, meaning they're getting paid, and they're

00:32:38.259 --> 00:32:42.599
dealing with a pro team. And Matt had even gone

00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:45.779
through the NBA draft or free agency to get onto

00:32:45.779 --> 00:32:49.740
a team that then puts them on the G League team.

00:32:49.900 --> 00:32:52.839
So they're pros. And they went to Louisville,

00:32:52.900 --> 00:32:55.539
and that was a big deal. Well, at that point,

00:32:55.619 --> 00:32:59.619
we were joking on the show. That was this sports

00:32:59.619 --> 00:33:02.740
season. We're joking on the show. Well, why don't

00:33:02.740 --> 00:33:04.599
we just bring back Steven Jackson? He can be

00:33:04.599 --> 00:33:08.400
a running back for us. Or Matt Moore can quarterback

00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:12.259
the Beavers. And yet, and yet, now to what Justin's

00:33:12.259 --> 00:33:16.059
talking about, it's coming true. you know there

00:33:16.059 --> 00:33:19.700
is a major, major problem. The biggest problem,

00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:22.980
though, I don't know about you guys, but I don't

00:33:22.980 --> 00:33:25.460
say this in an egotistical way. I say this in

00:33:25.460 --> 00:33:29.640
a way of just being a guy. I kind of think of

00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:33.740
myself as your average fan, average. I know there's

00:33:33.740 --> 00:33:36.440
much more that are into it and much less that

00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:38.680
are into it. I'm just your average guy, right?

00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:43.759
And I'm like, I don't... Personally, in my personal

00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:46.200
time and all that, I'm like, I don't really care

00:33:46.200 --> 00:33:48.980
anymore. I have to know this stuff for my job.

00:33:49.380 --> 00:33:52.220
But personally, I'm like, I don't really care

00:33:52.220 --> 00:33:54.720
because who am I rooting for? There's no more

00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:56.799
tradition. There's no more this. There's no more

00:33:56.799 --> 00:33:59.920
that. It's all collapsed. Well, if I feel like

00:33:59.920 --> 00:34:02.240
I'm average, then what's happening around the

00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:05.660
rest of the fan pool that are not crazy nut jobs

00:34:05.660 --> 00:34:08.559
who really love... sports but are just kind of

00:34:08.559 --> 00:34:10.460
you know they're into it the way it's always

00:34:10.460 --> 00:34:13.639
been there's got to be a lot of people who are

00:34:13.639 --> 00:34:16.019
kind of thinking twice about spending that extra

00:34:16.019 --> 00:34:20.519
ten thousand dollars for tickets which keep going

00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:23.619
up while this system collapses they keep charging

00:34:23.619 --> 00:34:27.920
more right i mean i worry about the sport overall

00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:31.840
not just 10 years from now but just five years

00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:34.849
from now John Warren joining us on the Danny

00:34:34.849 --> 00:34:37.429
and Justin radio program. This is great discussion.

00:34:37.710 --> 00:34:38.769
We're not going to have a lot. I'm going to have

00:34:38.769 --> 00:34:40.630
to bring you back after the season starts. We

00:34:40.630 --> 00:34:42.750
wanted to talk a little baseball, but we're running

00:34:42.750 --> 00:34:44.630
out of time in this segment. But I do want to

00:34:44.630 --> 00:34:46.730
ask you a couple of questions because they do

00:34:46.730 --> 00:34:49.269
start this weekend and quite a schedule in Surprise,

00:34:49.449 --> 00:34:53.130
Arizona. Surprise. We always like saying it like

00:34:53.130 --> 00:34:55.210
that. Michigan, Arizona, Stanford, and Michigan

00:34:55.210 --> 00:34:57.769
again before they head down to Round Rock. This

00:34:57.769 --> 00:34:59.409
is the same kind of schedule they had last year.

00:34:59.469 --> 00:35:02.789
Baylor, Southern Miss, Purdue, Houston. Alabama,

00:35:03.070 --> 00:35:06.550
Iowa, and then they play Oregon. Man, out of

00:35:06.550 --> 00:35:08.769
the gates, Mitch Canham's squad. I mean, you've

00:35:08.769 --> 00:35:11.650
got up there in Corvallis probably one of the

00:35:11.650 --> 00:35:14.889
best four -player rotations in a pitching staff

00:35:14.889 --> 00:35:17.909
that I've seen for quite a while with Dax Whitney,

00:35:18.150 --> 00:35:21.130
Isaac Yeager, Ethan Kleinschmidt, and Eric Segura.

00:35:21.230 --> 00:35:25.699
Is that wholly the strength of this team? No,

00:35:25.840 --> 00:35:28.780
they've got – actually, they go deeper than that

00:35:28.780 --> 00:35:31.539
with their arms, honestly. They got a kid, Mason

00:35:31.539 --> 00:35:34.460
Pike, out of Washington who was everything in

00:35:34.460 --> 00:35:37.480
Washington. And we had Aaron Fitt from D1Baseball

00:35:37.480 --> 00:35:41.320
.com on our show. He brought up Mason Pike as

00:35:41.320 --> 00:35:43.860
a guy that's absolutely on the national radar.

00:35:43.940 --> 00:35:46.440
One guy that – there's been so much talk about

00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:48.860
all those guys except for Yeager. When he came

00:35:48.860 --> 00:35:52.429
up as an All -American in – I don't remember

00:35:52.429 --> 00:35:56.170
the publication, oh, Writers Association. I literally

00:35:56.170 --> 00:35:59.570
said to Mike, who's that guy? Because I didn't

00:35:59.570 --> 00:36:02.969
even know. There's so many other pitchers. Now,

00:36:03.010 --> 00:36:04.969
offensively, they're not worried about it. They're

00:36:04.969 --> 00:36:06.809
not going to hit as many home runs, but they've

00:36:06.809 --> 00:36:08.829
got a ton of speed. In fact, more speed than

00:36:08.829 --> 00:36:12.650
they've ever had, according to Mitch. And they've

00:36:12.650 --> 00:36:16.110
done a really good job. We've heard a lot, I

00:36:16.110 --> 00:36:18.239
would just say, in the last three weeks. about

00:36:18.239 --> 00:36:20.539
more than just pitching, that there is some offense

00:36:20.539 --> 00:36:23.159
on this team. But power hitters, probably not

00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:26.019
so much this year. I mean, Yeager, 6 '6", 255.

00:36:26.750 --> 00:36:29.090
out of seattle washington and that that is a

00:36:29.090 --> 00:36:31.289
that's a randy johnson type although he throws

00:36:31.289 --> 00:36:34.389
from the right randy johnson type of uh of pitcher

00:36:34.389 --> 00:36:37.170
and he's not even the best pitcher on the on

00:36:37.170 --> 00:36:39.130
the staff that's that's what's crazy about that

00:36:39.130 --> 00:36:41.769
so is this is this really i mean it could be

00:36:41.769 --> 00:36:44.250
overstating it is this really the test mitch

00:36:44.250 --> 00:36:46.090
canham wants though out of the gate to see where

00:36:46.090 --> 00:36:48.869
his team is right away he's not soft peddling

00:36:48.869 --> 00:36:52.710
this season oh no they'll pick on anybody um

00:36:53.440 --> 00:36:56.380
Anytime. They put together, I think they put

00:36:56.380 --> 00:36:58.380
their own schedule together when it comes to

00:36:58.380 --> 00:37:02.500
surprise. Round Rock is, I think, somebody else's

00:37:02.500 --> 00:37:06.420
tournament. And they just go and play whoever

00:37:06.420 --> 00:37:10.280
they're in there with. And I think the other

00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:12.400
tournament is the same. I don't know that for

00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:15.099
sure. I could be wrong. I do know that they do

00:37:15.099 --> 00:37:19.780
surprise and control it. But they don't care.

00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:22.440
They'll take on anybody. Because especially...

00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:25.699
a second and hopefully final year of independent,

00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:29.699
they cannot, they have to take whoever they can

00:37:29.699 --> 00:37:31.880
get. And they did a really good job last year,

00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:34.239
but they did a better job this year, going from

00:37:34.239 --> 00:37:38.079
18 home games last year to 28 this year. And,

00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:44.019
you know, pretty good competition as far as the

00:37:44.019 --> 00:37:47.800
home schedule goes. But, no, they are ready to

00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:49.840
take on anybody, anytime, anywhere, and they're

00:37:49.840 --> 00:37:51.820
very confident in this team absolutely getting

00:37:51.820 --> 00:37:54.250
back. to the world series, which they did last

00:37:54.250 --> 00:37:57.250
year with, again, a lot of home runs and some

00:37:57.250 --> 00:38:00.630
great players, but they feel like they're not

00:38:00.630 --> 00:38:04.750
filling huge, huge holes. They're just, they're

00:38:04.750 --> 00:38:06.630
not too worried about it. Yeah. I want to dive

00:38:06.630 --> 00:38:08.929
into the power a little bit because. Like you

00:38:08.929 --> 00:38:11.570
said, they're not bringing back the power hitters

00:38:11.570 --> 00:38:13.650
that they had last year. And I think that we've

00:38:13.650 --> 00:38:16.250
seen in Major League Baseball and college baseball,

00:38:16.510 --> 00:38:19.110
that three -run homer can win you a game if you

00:38:19.110 --> 00:38:20.730
have great pitching. All it takes is one swing

00:38:20.730 --> 00:38:22.309
at that point. Do you have concern? Obviously,

00:38:22.389 --> 00:38:25.230
it's about getting to Omaha. Small ball also,

00:38:25.329 --> 00:38:28.130
at times, can be very conducive in a postseason

00:38:28.130 --> 00:38:30.329
-type environment. But how much concern do you

00:38:30.329 --> 00:38:32.570
have in a postseason series, in a one -game type

00:38:32.570 --> 00:38:34.929
of series, where you don't have necessarily that

00:38:34.929 --> 00:38:38.340
type of power? Oh, not at all. Not at all. Because

00:38:38.340 --> 00:38:41.860
a lot of teams are, believe it or not, they're

00:38:41.860 --> 00:38:45.840
surprised by small ball now because the pros

00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:49.599
forget it. And the colleges kind of look at the

00:38:49.599 --> 00:38:55.360
pros. I am shocked at how far small ball has

00:38:55.360 --> 00:38:59.639
fallen from just the days of Pat Casey, which

00:38:59.639 --> 00:39:03.139
is... six years, maybe seven years now since

00:39:03.139 --> 00:39:05.780
Pat's been retired. I guess that's longer than

00:39:05.780 --> 00:39:09.260
I think for me. I don't know what time goes by

00:39:09.260 --> 00:39:11.619
so fast for me. I say, oh, it was just yesterday

00:39:11.619 --> 00:39:13.300
we were doing this. And someone will say, no,

00:39:13.400 --> 00:39:16.900
John, that was five years ago. But the Beavers

00:39:16.900 --> 00:39:19.260
were in a series last year. I don't remember

00:39:19.260 --> 00:39:23.139
the game of the series. And they went small ball,

00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:27.119
bunting and moving guys in just this small stretch.

00:39:28.190 --> 00:39:30.050
and it was the first time they had done it in

00:39:30.050 --> 00:39:32.030
a while. It completely threw the other team.

00:39:32.130 --> 00:39:34.050
I think it was in the series with Florida State,

00:39:34.210 --> 00:39:37.050
and it paid off. Yeah, it was in the series with

00:39:37.050 --> 00:39:39.369
Florida State. It paid off, and they won as a

00:39:39.369 --> 00:39:41.630
result of it. And I remember their coach kind

00:39:41.630 --> 00:39:44.710
of bringing it up like, well, you know, we didn't

00:39:44.710 --> 00:39:46.690
expect that and all that. I was like, what do

00:39:46.690 --> 00:39:48.670
you mean? And now I remember my memory thinking

00:39:48.670 --> 00:39:51.289
that Pat Casey was just yesterday because that's

00:39:51.289 --> 00:39:54.889
all that we ever saw was. Small ball worked to

00:39:54.889 --> 00:39:58.630
perfection. If anybody on the roster did not

00:39:58.630 --> 00:40:01.789
know how to bunt, you didn't play. And in just

00:40:01.789 --> 00:40:06.329
six or seven years, that all went away, and the

00:40:06.329 --> 00:40:08.809
colleges are a lot like the pros, that shocks

00:40:08.809 --> 00:40:10.889
me, even though it probably shouldn't because

00:40:10.889 --> 00:40:13.570
I've been watching it now for all these six or

00:40:13.570 --> 00:40:17.369
seven years. And Oregon State is very well versed

00:40:17.369 --> 00:40:19.630
in small ball. Yeah, well, of course, Mitch Catt,

00:40:19.690 --> 00:40:21.909
I'm a disciple of Pat Casey, so it makes sense.

00:40:22.030 --> 00:40:24.710
Judge, we're going to let you go. Much more to

00:40:24.710 --> 00:40:27.010
talk about baseball -wise. And then as we get

00:40:27.010 --> 00:40:29.349
towards March Madness, we can start talking about

00:40:29.349 --> 00:40:31.130
what it looks like for that on both the men's

00:40:31.130 --> 00:40:32.590
and the women's side. Looks like Oregon State

00:40:32.590 --> 00:40:35.110
could possibly be in that picture as well for

00:40:35.110 --> 00:40:37.269
the NCAA tournament. So we'll bring you back

00:40:37.269 --> 00:40:40.389
when we've got that on the docket. And we always

00:40:40.389 --> 00:40:42.630
appreciate your insight up there in Corvallis.

00:40:42.650 --> 00:40:45.639
You're the best. Well, I appreciate that. Sounds

00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:47.980
good. Again, I just want to say hi to all my

00:40:47.980 --> 00:40:52.119
new friends in Newport. Go out and buy it. John

00:40:52.119 --> 00:40:54.960
will be open for beverages and photos down there

00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:58.000
on the dock down in the bay shortly. There you

00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:00.019
go. Thanks, John. Take care, buddy. All right.

00:41:00.230 --> 00:41:02.170
There he goes, the great judge, John Warren,

00:41:02.369 --> 00:41:06.269
from KJO Radio, 1240 AM. Again, you can listen

00:41:06.269 --> 00:41:07.889
to him on the Joe Beaver Show right before our

00:41:07.889 --> 00:41:12.809
show, 11 to 1 on the 1240 Joe Radio. You can

00:41:12.809 --> 00:41:15.789
hear it down here. It's scratchy, but you can

00:41:15.789 --> 00:41:17.769
still hear it. Or you can also go online, just

00:41:17.769 --> 00:41:19.809
like you can go online with us. Fox Sports Eugene,

00:41:19.949 --> 00:41:22.150
Fox Sports Newport. When we come back, Stephanie

00:41:22.150 --> 00:41:25.230
Maake gets a big Grand Slam home run. Runs, though,

00:41:25.269 --> 00:41:27.510
were at a premium for Oregon softball this weekend.

00:41:28.250 --> 00:41:30.510
Turnovers kill the... The Lady Ducks against

00:41:30.510 --> 00:41:33.250
the Buckeyes. Nate Biddle returns against the

00:41:33.250 --> 00:41:35.030
Boilermakers. All of that, we're going to cram

00:41:35.030 --> 00:41:36.989
it in in a couple of minutes next on the Danny

00:41:36.989 --> 00:41:43.789
and Justin radio program. If you missed any of

00:41:43.789 --> 00:41:45.630
our interview with the judge, John Warren, go

00:41:45.630 --> 00:41:47.929
back to the podcast and listen to it. The Danny

00:41:47.929 --> 00:41:50.530
and Justin radio program is on all of the pod

00:41:50.530 --> 00:41:53.369
platforms, all of the streaming platforms, as

00:41:53.369 --> 00:41:55.190
it were. I call them streaming platforms. They're

00:41:55.190 --> 00:41:58.530
probably not that. That's probably my age, not

00:41:58.530 --> 00:42:02.389
knowing all this newfangled stuff. You're fine.

00:42:02.590 --> 00:42:05.570
You're fine. Thank you. I'll try. So, Nate Biddle

00:42:05.570 --> 00:42:07.710
scores a game -high 23, grabs five rebounds.

00:42:07.730 --> 00:42:09.730
We touched on it right at the beginning. Oregon

00:42:09.730 --> 00:42:12.349
couldn't overcome a cold shooting stretch as

00:42:12.349 --> 00:42:15.809
number 12, Purdue, holds on 68 -64 at Mackey

00:42:15.809 --> 00:42:19.469
Arena. The Ducks are now 8 -15, 1 -11 in the

00:42:19.469 --> 00:42:21.690
Big Ten, and it doesn't get any easier. They

00:42:21.690 --> 00:42:26.159
take on Indiana tonight, 5 -30 on FS1. 44 % from

00:42:26.159 --> 00:42:28.260
the field for the Ducks shooting, but they only

00:42:28.260 --> 00:42:31.619
shoot 5 of 25 from 3. Can I call my shot? Sure.

00:42:31.739 --> 00:42:33.760
I think this is the one. Okay. I think this game

00:42:33.760 --> 00:42:36.159
against Indiana. Didn't I want to see them at

00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:40.079
least do one? Get one win? Well, get one of those

00:42:40.079 --> 00:42:42.159
ones that somebody would go, yeah, they're not

00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:44.519
going to win that game, and put it in the win

00:42:44.519 --> 00:42:47.679
column. I think this is it. This is me calling

00:42:47.679 --> 00:42:49.960
my shot. Nate Biddle back. Let's see what happens.

00:42:50.139 --> 00:42:54.690
You got a 50 -50 shot at it. Hoosiers lead the

00:42:54.690 --> 00:42:58.789
series three games to two, and they've won the

00:42:58.789 --> 00:43:01.710
first three. Oregon's won the last two, two in

00:43:01.710 --> 00:43:06.130
a row, including last year's win, 72 -59 in Indianapolis.

00:43:06.170 --> 00:43:08.210
So they go back to Indianapolis and take on the

00:43:08.210 --> 00:43:10.750
Hoosiers tonight. Oregon women, tough, tough

00:43:10.750 --> 00:43:12.989
game against the Buckeyes. They were slugging

00:43:12.989 --> 00:43:16.829
it out, but it was exactly as Coach Graves said

00:43:16.829 --> 00:43:20.210
on the program Friday, is the Buckeyes will speed

00:43:20.210 --> 00:43:22.760
you up. And that's what happened to the Ducks

00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:25.059
several times. They commit 23 turnovers, which

00:43:25.059 --> 00:43:27.599
is right on where Ohio State has forced their

00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:30.980
opponents to do all season long. And a four -game

00:43:30.980 --> 00:43:33.679
win streak goes bye -bye. 80 -64 loss to the

00:43:33.679 --> 00:43:37.119
Buckeyes. Ducks are now 6 -7 in Big Ten, 18 -8

00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:39.559
overall. And Coach Graves said that turnovers

00:43:39.559 --> 00:43:41.820
killed them. Fast break points killed them. Ari

00:43:41.820 --> 00:43:44.320
Long hit four three -pointers, 16 points. Mia

00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:47.440
Jacobs, Sarah Rambis, East Corps, 13. Ahisa Tutte,

00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:51.230
Katie Fiso were held to a combined. 13 points

00:43:51.230 --> 00:43:53.869
on just four or 15 shooting. I mean, literally

00:43:53.869 --> 00:43:57.329
you get those two to hit what their season averages

00:43:57.329 --> 00:44:00.309
normally are. Ducks win the game by four. Yeah.

00:44:00.429 --> 00:44:03.090
And Ohio State, I think, you know, one of those

00:44:03.090 --> 00:44:04.429
games, I think they're just the better team.

00:44:04.550 --> 00:44:08.349
It wasn't even, there wasn't one point in the

00:44:08.349 --> 00:44:10.030
game where I think Ohio State like went on a

00:44:10.030 --> 00:44:11.889
huge run or anything like that. They had a 10

00:44:11.889 --> 00:44:14.289
-0 run that opened up a lead in the first quarter,

00:44:14.329 --> 00:44:15.829
but then the Ducks started chipping away at it.

00:44:15.829 --> 00:44:19.239
They only won that quarter, you know, by. by

00:44:19.239 --> 00:44:21.920
four right they only won the most a quarter by

00:44:21.920 --> 00:44:24.340
by five so it wasn't like there was one quarter

00:44:24.340 --> 00:44:25.579
where they really killed the ducks like that

00:44:25.579 --> 00:44:27.400
third quarter against illinois where they just

00:44:27.400 --> 00:44:30.019
completely fall flat but just one of those games

00:44:30.019 --> 00:44:31.400
where the ducks just weren't the better team

00:44:31.400 --> 00:44:34.460
and they definitely competed but overall like

00:44:34.460 --> 00:44:36.360
you know you just can't win them all yeah ohio

00:44:36.360 --> 00:44:40.099
state went on a 14 -3 run in the final quarter

00:44:40.099 --> 00:44:42.900
to open up their biggest lead at 70 -49 it was

00:44:42.900 --> 00:44:45.829
just all over for the shouting as, again, Ari

00:44:45.829 --> 00:44:48.329
Long, 16 points, Mia Jacobs, 13, Sarah Rambis,

00:44:48.349 --> 00:44:50.130
13, the only players in double figures. All right,

00:44:50.150 --> 00:44:52.750
so let's go to softball. Stephanie Maake, it's

00:44:52.750 --> 00:44:55.110
a grand slam as Oregon defeated Liberty to start

00:44:55.110 --> 00:44:57.590
off Saturday, played 10 -2, but that was the

00:44:57.590 --> 00:44:59.949
highest point for the Ducks in the rest of the

00:44:59.949 --> 00:45:03.550
weekend as they drop the last two games, including

00:45:03.550 --> 00:45:06.570
a 4 -2 decision to Southeastern Louisiana, which

00:45:06.570 --> 00:45:08.130
one stings. That one stings a little bit. That

00:45:08.130 --> 00:45:10.349
one's a little surprising. Elise Sokolski and

00:45:10.349 --> 00:45:13.030
Taylor Spencer kept the Lions off the scoreboard

00:45:13.030 --> 00:45:16.460
through four innings. and the Ducks ran into

00:45:16.460 --> 00:45:19.940
trouble in the fifth again. It seems like that's

00:45:19.940 --> 00:45:22.280
where it's happened. Maddie Millhorn came in

00:45:22.280 --> 00:45:23.679
throughout the final two innings, struck out

00:45:23.679 --> 00:45:26.980
three, only allowed one hit. They now go to the

00:45:26.980 --> 00:45:29.579
brand -new Stanford Stadium for the Cardinal

00:45:29.579 --> 00:45:31.599
Classic February 13th through the 15th. That's

00:45:31.599 --> 00:45:33.239
this weekend. They'll play Cal State Fullerton,

00:45:33.380 --> 00:45:35.739
Kentucky, Cal Poly, and host Stanford. They're

00:45:35.739 --> 00:45:38.260
now two and three on the season after the trip

00:45:38.260 --> 00:45:41.239
to Eddie Moore Complex in Clearwater. It's not

00:45:41.239 --> 00:45:43.179
the start you wanted, but I think that it's a

00:45:43.179 --> 00:45:45.579
timing sport. So they competed with the good

00:45:45.579 --> 00:45:47.619
teams. It wasn't like these were blowouts or

00:45:47.619 --> 00:45:49.219
anything like that. They did lose the games.

00:45:49.440 --> 00:45:54.239
And the last one certainly is a surprise against

00:45:54.239 --> 00:45:57.019
Southeastern Louisiana. But I'm just not concerned

00:45:57.019 --> 00:45:59.340
yet. I'm just not. We knew that this team was

00:45:59.340 --> 00:46:00.440
going to be different. We knew that they were

00:46:00.440 --> 00:46:03.340
going to have some more power, less speed. They

00:46:03.340 --> 00:46:04.800
need to be able to generate runs. So you can't

00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:07.199
bat 244 and expect a win. No, you can't. So they

00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:09.570
beat. missouri in the opening game three nothing

00:46:09.570 --> 00:46:11.849
they lose a one run game to clemson the second

00:46:11.849 --> 00:46:13.789
game lose two nothing to tennessee in the third

00:46:13.789 --> 00:46:16.630
game and then what i would expect oregon to be

00:46:16.630 --> 00:46:18.829
like for the rest of the season is what they

00:46:18.829 --> 00:46:21.469
did against liberty yeah they they wrap out 13

00:46:21.469 --> 00:46:24.030
hits they win 10 -2 they have great pitching

00:46:24.030 --> 00:46:26.969
they even fell behind right well that was the

00:46:26.969 --> 00:46:28.650
deal was they basically they fell behind in the

00:46:28.650 --> 00:46:31.210
fifth inning and i'm checking on this game and

00:46:31.210 --> 00:46:33.630
i check back and it's like six to one i'm like

00:46:33.630 --> 00:46:36.630
oh like okay like i guess they figured it out

00:46:36.630 --> 00:46:39.170
and then it was 10 to you know 10 to 2 so so

00:46:39.170 --> 00:46:41.989
the the ducks again on the road still you'll

00:46:41.989 --> 00:46:45.170
not see uh version 8 at jane sanders stadium

00:46:45.170 --> 00:46:48.949
until the end of this month they'll be back against

00:46:48.949 --> 00:46:53.889
stetson on february 27th they'll have four games

00:46:53.889 --> 00:46:55.829
at home they have a nice little home stretch

00:46:55.829 --> 00:46:57.949
at the jane hopefully the weather will cooperate

00:46:58.780 --> 00:47:00.739
And then they'll be back on the road for a few

00:47:00.739 --> 00:47:03.079
games. And then it will be Big Ten play. I mean,

00:47:03.119 --> 00:47:05.199
it's right around the corner for baseball and

00:47:05.199 --> 00:47:07.219
softball. Baseball starts this Friday against

00:47:07.219 --> 00:47:10.940
George Mason. We talked about the Beavers are

00:47:10.940 --> 00:47:15.099
going to be down in Arizona for that tournament.

00:47:15.360 --> 00:47:19.000
So we're going to have that crossover. No more

00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:21.559
football now. You got football out of your system?

00:47:21.980 --> 00:47:24.590
I think, I mean. There's always recruiting, Danny.

00:47:26.030 --> 00:47:28.050
We will always talk about football here on the

00:47:28.050 --> 00:47:30.030
Danny and Justin radio program. We also give

00:47:30.030 --> 00:47:33.389
you a nice dad joke. Oh, a joke. I got fired

00:47:33.389 --> 00:47:35.289
from the bank today. A woman asked me to check

00:47:35.289 --> 00:47:39.369
her balance, so I pushed her. Dad jokes. All

00:47:39.369 --> 00:47:42.230
right, boys. This one's for you too, Blaze. You're

00:47:42.230 --> 00:47:43.869
not going to answer it out loud, but you're going

00:47:43.869 --> 00:47:46.190
to just give me the rolling eyes, producer Blaze.

00:47:46.949 --> 00:47:49.570
Which bathroom appliance would be the worst life

00:47:49.570 --> 00:47:55.429
preserver? Which bathroom appliance would be

00:47:55.429 --> 00:47:59.010
the worst life preserver? I don't know if this

00:47:59.010 --> 00:48:01.349
technically qualifies as an appliance, though.

00:48:01.809 --> 00:48:05.670
Well, it would be the sink. Yeah, I guess so.

00:48:06.230 --> 00:48:08.670
See, I'm not sure that's an appliance. I think

00:48:08.670 --> 00:48:11.510
we need a judge's ruling on whether or not that's

00:48:11.510 --> 00:48:15.409
actually an appliance or not. You know what an

00:48:15.409 --> 00:48:17.590
appliance to me is? It's something that has an

00:48:17.590 --> 00:48:20.949
operation on it. Like, you know, you can... You

00:48:20.949 --> 00:48:23.030
can turn it on and off. You can do the temperature

00:48:23.030 --> 00:48:25.650
or, you know, it has a light on it or something

00:48:25.650 --> 00:48:27.809
like that, right? Yeah. That would be an appliance

00:48:27.809 --> 00:48:30.170
to me. Yeah, it's not an electronic thing, right?

00:48:31.210 --> 00:48:33.449
Yeah. It's just plumbing. All right, so I need

00:48:33.449 --> 00:48:35.809
to talk to the writer of the dad jokes. We're

00:48:35.809 --> 00:48:37.110
going to have a conference after. We're going

00:48:37.110 --> 00:48:39.170
to have a production meeting with the dad joke

00:48:39.170 --> 00:48:41.590
writer. Do we know what we're doing tomorrow,

00:48:41.690 --> 00:48:43.969
by the way? I'm going to try to get on Travis.

00:48:44.170 --> 00:48:45.650
I think it might be a good day for him. Travis

00:48:45.650 --> 00:48:48.460
Demers, the mayor of Rip City. They had a nice

00:48:48.460 --> 00:48:50.599
win the other night. Two games in a row now.

00:48:50.860 --> 00:48:53.800
So two games under, three games under 500? Three

00:48:53.800 --> 00:48:55.599
games under 500. We'll talk to the mayor hopefully

00:48:55.599 --> 00:48:58.340
tomorrow. So come on back tomorrow at 2 p .m.

00:48:58.340 --> 00:48:59.920
right here on the Danny and Justin Radio Program.

00:49:00.039 --> 00:49:03.300
Producer Dom, the intern Dom over there. No,

00:49:03.340 --> 00:49:05.579
that's Blaze. Intern Blaze. I just called you

00:49:05.579 --> 00:49:06.920
Dom. You didn't even correct me, dude. Throw

00:49:06.920 --> 00:49:08.539
something at me when I call you the wrong name.

00:49:09.179 --> 00:49:12.420
For Baby J. It's your Brian moment. Thank you

00:49:12.420 --> 00:49:15.659
very much. It's $5 for me. Be back tomorrow.

00:49:15.739 --> 00:49:18.090
God bless. Put a smile on your face. They deserve

00:49:18.090 --> 00:49:19.309
it. So do you. Peace.
