Earlier I pointed out that I really didn't see any need for it any longer. I don't think this is some guy shaking his fist get off my lawn. I just think it's a statement of fact. You know, if you're doing the game for eight to nine year olds, and that seemed to be the perception or the
opinion of Adam. Okay, then watch Nickelodeon. If we're to be honest, it just doesn't have the impact it had because now you can see everything every game whenever you want, and with social media seeing the players isn't that special, And I think the downside of it is Okay, it is a showcase of the top players, but they're not really playing a game. They're just running up and down the court, dunking the ball and firing forty five ft threes. There's not a lot to it. There's just not a lot
to it. So Rodney, I just believe that the NBA All Star Game, it's past saying now, I don't even see any need for it. So you just want it to be competitive again, that is who exciting. You say, an entertainment value, and then you say, no, it's not about entertainment, it's about being competitive, and they don't really care and they're just dunking And as if that's not entertainment to a ten year old.
That is who the market is. It's who they're marketing to. Is that that family or that ten year old or twelve year old that just wants to see their superstars have fun, let their hair down a little bit and enjoy and not be so intense all the time. Is the regular season and games and playoffs, they are intense. It is intense, you know, not a whole lot of smiling and joking and getting along with each other and trash talking each other in a fun, humorous way. All Star Game is entertainment.
And then for that respect, yeah, so you'd rather just take a break and not do anything. It's for fan appreciation more than anything else. Yeah. But I think here's the thing. If it's for for the older fan, is for the kids. Okay, If it's for kids, then why don't we put it on Nickelodeon. Let SpongeBob and Patrick do it call the play by play, just like they did with the Super Bowl because that was for kids, all right, So that's the case. What difference doesn't
make if it's on TNT, who is that hurting? Well, there's not SpongeBob doing it. Does it have to be SpongeBob? Yeah? What differences it make? I don't know. Why does it have to be on Nickelodeon Because you said it's just for kids, just for kids, just not just but kids enjoy it's for the younger demographic. I don't think they're trying to get into an appeal to you guys, or even me to a certain degree. How about twenty year olds that too? The ch worlds enjoy it too.
I believe. At my house they think it's awful and their twenty in their young twenties, they don't like it. I think it's a complete waste of time. Well, my house loves the three point and the dunk contest. My house loves the three point, but they think that the dunk contest is also kind of jumped the shark. Well, what hearts the dunk contest is you don't have a lot of name players that do it. Yeah,
Jalen Brown is in this year and that helps. If you get star power in the dunk contest, I think that will help bring that back a little bit. But you can't incentivize the dunk contest more so than the game. Then that would that would definitely if there's one thing they could incentivize more so, I think it would be the dunk contest, and the three point is a pride thing. I think that's still cool. But yeah, incentivize the
dunk contest more and that they would get more guys to participate. I think, now, why do you feel about that? Fred? As far as the weekend as a whole, the game is one thing and we can get back to that. But as far as the All Star Saturday. Are you out completely on that too? I'm not out on that. I mean, I like the three point contest. I think they need to I don't know, I think they need to do something. It's kind of flat. I don't know. If they do they do something, you criticize it, but
you can't say what they should do, right, Like what? Uh? All right? You know, I guess you can have one day of skills contest. I'd just like to threat personally have three points. That's that's all they anybody cares about in my house because it looks like there's some skill associated with that. You gotta be able to shoot. Uh, the game itself shake Gilgi Salas Xander came out and said, well, maybe if they paid everybody, you know, five hundred thousand dollars kind of there'd be more intensity,
we'd be more into it. And if your point is they're doing this as a showcase and trying to give the kids what they want, then why would you have to pay the players in the All Star Game to give the kids what they want? Really? Why would you you are now? You are? Now you are? Get off my line, guy, No, I'm not to have it both ways. You can't have it both ways. What do you mean, why would you have to pay guys game? What do you want you want it to be? If you wanted the guys to
care, you want guys to be competitive. Guys don't want to get hurt for it either, you know. If they don't want to get hurt, then don't have the game. They have to still have the rest of the season. But that's why they have it and the way it is now because it's strictly for entertainment. It's not for who wins and loses. It's strictly
to entertain It's the globetrotters, now, that's what it is. You know what the Washington Washington Generals, Rodneys, The Washington Generals played more defense than they do in the NBA All Star Nobody cares who wins and loses, No but you and if somebody you have to have some sort of resistance to make it interesting? Why? Why to make it interesting? Why that just looks
like a prolonged scrimmage. That's why people like it. People like I want to see, well the numbers, the people like count Ali oop to Lebron from half court. I think that's pretty cool. Well, it's cool if there's somebody trying to take the ball. Why because it is not the NBA Finals. Stop trying to make it the NBA Final. I don't want it to be the NBA Finals. Obviously you do because you want it to be ultra competitive, and it's never gonna be that way. Look, I think
the NFL did it right. They got rid of the Pro Bowl. They got rid of the game that was smart technically equivalent. That's not it's the equivalent of what the NBA does, and it kind of is Rodney. Yeah it is. Yeah, but you know what, water down version of the actual game. At least I don't have to play the game. I think hockey, the three on three Disney on ice where guys are skating around in circles and stuff and it's just up and down and nobody's really moving that fast.
I think they should get rid of that too, Get rid of it, give everybody a couple of days off. Man, how about this Fred? Maybe if you hate it so much you just don't pay attention to it, how about that? Just don't watch Fred? Because who is it hurting? You know what? I'm gonna take you up on that. Yeah, who is it hurting? By them keeping it for the few fans who do enjoy it. The point, if you're gonna keep it, shouldn't you just try to improve one and you want to try to bring in as many people
and have interest as much as you possibly can. Sure you don't just get rid of it because a couple of people say like, I don't care. Well, if you don't get that, i'll watch. Well. I don't think a couple of people say that, you know what, I actually think there would be more. I think there was more interest, and I don't have this documented, but I'll bet you there was more interest in the ind Season Tournament and you guys hated that than the NBA All Star Game. If
they didn't have these TV contracts, they wouldn't do it. They wouldn't do it. There'd be no reason there's interest from the players in the n Season Tournament because they got paid, are incentivized five hundred grand. You don't throw that five hundred grand. It wouldn't be any interest or any incentive, and really any like players wouldn't really care. So now they barely care right now. If you incentivize the players in the All Star Game, it's like Shay
Alexander said, and give them five hundred thousand dollars high. I believe that most of those players are gonna be balling their asses off to try to get that bonus and try to win a game, and it'll look more competitive. So, like almost regardless of how you get it to be more competitive, if the goal is to get it more competitive, then you do whatever you need to do. So I'd agree for it. They shouldn't have to be incentivized with extra money. But if you want the game to be more competitive,
and that's what it's gonna take, maybe you do it. Why not, Well, okay, whatever you gotta do. But my again, if you're going, well, this is for the kids, this is for the kids. We gotta do it for the kids. Well, we've got to do for the kids, and do it for the kids. If that's your reason, we're doing it. Okay, Okay, you gotta go speak to You're gonna go fly and speak to a group of kids in Chicago and then
Philadelphia and they're gonna fly y'all around the country. Just do it. You know, normally you get paid to do it for adults and you go speak for him and you pay for it too. You set your own flight, and you you pay for it, and you go and you set your own hotel room up and you get it right, because it's it's for the kids. You're going speaking for the kids, or you're speaking for a worthy cause,
So just go do it without getting paid for it. So you're saying with your All Star game, if you want a more competitive All Star game, you just gotta pay the guys. Surly wouldn't hurt. Do you think it would have been competitive and end season if they didn't, if there was not money attached to it. I think they would have been regular season games that counted in the standings because they did, Okay, the final two didn't
except the two. Okay, so what the Lakers or Pelicans or Pacers if they were getting not a dime from any of those games and all they got was this little NBA Cup and a banner, do you think they would have cared as much? No, But they got paid because they were additional regular season games. No, that's not the question, Fred, You know you're avoiding the question. The games that did not count towards the regular season standings, the final two in Las Vegas, if they did not get a single
dome for being in those games. What they have cared as much is the question, Yeah, where their teammates and other or other team other players are are in Hawaii or Rest Cabo or somewhere else getting to rest in with their families. Probably not, They probably would not have cared as much. I agree. I agree. So these players now at All Star weekend, whether they should be this way or not, we don't live in a ifs,
you know, ans and butts and maybes. If they get more money, guarantee you the games will be more competitive because there's more stake in the game. That's it, and it's a it's a it's a party for the players and the league as well. So guys go and show up because for four days, it's not about basketball. It's about camaraderie, it's about philanthropy, it's about other things than just trying to be a make a competitive game for those die hard get off my line, guys, that it's more. It's
more than that. So parties for the kids, it's it's signing autographs for the kids that that happened to be in that city, going to the game, or being a part of it at fan fest and all those things that happen around an All Star game where kids can go into a into a convention center and and maybe see some guys signing autographs or go through the fan experience of shooting threes and doing all these things that you go through at an All
Star game. It is packed with little kids and kids that care about their teams and that want to be a part of that experience, and the same thing when the kids are watching it. I mean, it's almost like the NBA's are yeah for It's almost like the NBA's version of the Super Bowl. Right. It was out there all the parties for the growing ups, the convention center, as he mentioned, all the stuff for the kids. That's you can't really do that in a sport like basketball, where when the posts
and rolls around you have individual series. This is where all the stars, all the players, commissioner can all converge in one place and celebrate the sport all as So instead of getting rid of it completely if there is an issue with it, try to find a way to make it better and more competitive. But don't just get rid of it completely. Because the Sriadoney's point, there's more to it than there's just the game on the court. Well,
then just pay the players so it's a better show. It's wrong with grumpy lumpy, dumpy frumpy from No, here's why, here's why. No, no, no, here's why. Because you make the point this is for the kid, this is for the kids, this is we're doing it for the kids. Doesn't matter, we're doing it for the kids. Well, if you're doing it for the kids and you're being transported there, put up
in a hotel and taken care of. Unlike the analogy you had Rodney, where I'm gonna go talk to kids in Philadelphia, fly myself there, pay my own way. No, you're doing it for the kids. Come on in and just make the game more entertaining for the kids. Make it more entertaining to the kids. You don't think three sixty dunks. Kids don't care who wins, you know, and I don't get get dunks in three pointers from half court and seeing Steph Curry out far out he can shoot a three.
You don't think kids go crazy over that. I think they do, and so would I. But I'd like to see somebody at least standing in front of them. I'm not even saying you really have to guard them, but at least be there. It means at least make it look like you did something. So then when Steph Curry hits a three and there's a guy in front of him, you go, oh my god, now he's got a wide open three and a half courts. Are you gonna say that's what
he's gonna say in an All Star game? Somebody standing in front of Steph Corey going oh yeah, he's playing competitive defense. Yeah no, Roddy, there's nobody around anybody as three sixty dunk. There's not even anybody there. Even if somebody's around, they're not getting close to him because the guys don't want to get it hurt. No, it looks like a giant hurt somebody else and they gotta step on somebody's foot. That's what it looks like.
Not gonna do it. Just a giant. Everybody show up. It's just not even a scrimmage. Just a giant shoot around. That that's what it is. And you guys know it and the kids love it, well, then do it for the kids. They are And that's why I won't stop. He ain't doing it for your ass. I can agree, you know what. I can confirm that they ain't doing it for my assesson No,
hell no, all right, we have spirituality coming up. Also news on Tiger Woods and today through Sunday, the PGA Tory returns to Los Angeles. Greatness will be unleashed on the Greens.

We definite Differit definitely definitely needs some spirituality because Fred is turned into the Grints that stole every day of a year. So you're saying there's something You're saying there's something unusual about today. Oh actually no, I mean you just turned it up a notch. That's all you went on volume nine or ten. Uh. I would respectfully disagree. I hear you, but I just respectfully disagree with that. Hey, Dodger talked tonight seven o'clock. David Vase will

Okay, we need spirituality and to provide that we walk them on, Victor Brick and victd afternoon, he says. The upcoming NBA All Star Game at Indy despite a funky, techno charged led state of the art court, He's got one word or Fred Rogan, Hello, Vic, by the way, I think the
court will be cool. I'll give you that the court will be cool. They got the court set up for Saturday's Lucas Oil Stadium stuff right, but not the game. The game, but not the game exactly. So it will be techno charge though. For the kids, for the kids, Vic, for the kids. Baby. He still loves the All Star flavor, the three point shot, the dunk, the whole thing, the unity in
the community. Rodney Pete, Yeah, talk to the VT p our perennial All Star Kevin Figures come on now and his every musical cut he'd be jamming. Oh, Rodney Fossio coming off the bench with the high coup. Y'all, y'all fellas, Tiger Woods is out of the tournament. Yes, he
just withdrew from the Genesis Invitational with drew or didn't make the cut. He withdrew and he was playing the seventh hole and he hit his drive into the fairway and then, according to tournament officials, he wasn't feeling well and he got into a golf cart and left the tournament. Nothing to do with his spasming back, left his tournament. He's hosting the tournament. Yeah, but Tiger's out due to illness. Boy, he had a rough shot yesterday and
then came out of it pretty good, pretty good. He did say his back, his back was season on him though a little bit too though, So he was spasming the last couple of holes yesterday. Then he shot thank the shot on the eighteenth and through six holes today he was you know, one over, two over for the tournaments. So he he was straddling the cut line. But he got he got sick on the seventh hole. Yeah. More about what is Tiles Tiger going to finish? Is he gonna make
a run? It is. I can't even finish two days of a tournament without getting hurt, sick, sad. It's like that boxer that plays too long, that fights too long. It just keeps taking shot after shot because he can't defend himself time. There's always a time, and it's been time for Tiger. Well, he said no moss today on the seventh hole, but again he was very frustrated. He was holding his head in his hands as he was taking off the you know, off off the riviera and a
golf cart. We do not know the source of the illness, but he burned his first hole today, then a couple of bogies and was won over for six and was straddling the cut line at two over park. So that's a bummer. That's a bummer that Tiger's not playing because the excitement level at the River, you know, it was really amped up. The tigers first competitive round since the Bahamas, his first big tournament since the Masters. Yeah, well, you know, Vick, I think you might have jinxed him.
I really do, given how much you emphasized he was the host and all of his hosting responsibilities. He might have thrown his back out serving lunch as the host. Well, Fred, I think we you were really overextending is multitasking as host? I think it was more of a ceremonial deal. Yeah, but you said there was a lot. I mean, he's going to be busy. He's the host. Well, he's big. Of course
he's a host. Fred. If you're hosting the tournament, yeah, Frank, you're not just playing in the tournament, making sure everyone's having a good time. And the Genesis Invitational is such an outstanding tournament, such a gorgeous layout, you know, the river area is just iconic. But we'll get we'll get to the bottom of the illness, I'm sure as time goes on. But it's a it's a it's a it's tough for all golf fans to see Tiger out. I'm just I'm just glad it wasn't his back. According
to the officials, there was nothing to do with back spasms. It's probably tough for CBS or NBC whoever else is broadcasting this too, because uh, who else you tuned in to watch? Well, Patrick can't lay there? You go high school in Anaheim. He's ten under. Unless you're an avid golfer, you don't know who that is. We still got your you, Ricky Ricky Fowl of course locally out of Muriada, he's he's in the mix. Worry McElroy's and I mean the top names of golf are are playing the
top names in golf are playing for the Saudis. You talk the Saudi the Lift tournament, Well, they're in the mix here. Yeah, nobody cares about the PGA anymore. What was that merger happening supposed top Yeah, when's that happening? They're still talking about it. We talked for three years now, but you guys are really jaded money talks VIC. PGA didn't understand that. They're kind of like the n c A, A kind of sat on their hands thinking they were the only show in town. Nobody could, nobody
could compete with them. You know, next thing you know, they got taken. It's coming. Tiger taking from us today. Tiger was taken because he was taken from us today. Oh absolutely, I mean I think everyone dramatic. Yeah, we're still alive. Everyone who's riveted on Tiger Woods, Fred for this tournament. Tiger was taking them that golf club took his knee out. Did I say that, wow? Wow? Did I say that? No? Normally I say that that was the beginning, the beginning of
the end. We're just disappointing to see Tiger out. And as you say, as you say, as you say, the sponsors, the TV networks were planning on a weekend with Tiger, you know, in the in the mix of the last thirty six holes, that's a that's a supreme bummer. But again, Tiger Woods withdrawn from the Genesis Invitational today due to illness and according to officials from the tournament, nothing to do with with his back. So that's that's a good thing. But he was playing through it was you
know, he was, you know, tinkering with his swing. His he's still rehabbing. He was tinkering with his rehab. He was, you know, Tiger was showing a lot of guts out there, just I think playing He was playing through a lot of a lot of what are yours? Yours? Uh? Pr campaign, bick, what are we doing here? Oh? I was really I was psyched to see Tiger play, you know, seventy two holes? Yeah, you were, vig, You really were, Dick. You want the payroll with Tiger Tiger Woods Company, none at all.
I just I'm a big fan of Woods. I'm a big fan of golf. You know, I carried for many, many many years, you know, fellas you did. How could you read it? Of course? Where did you carry? First of all, number on Austin, Texas. I used to club Tom Kite all the time back in the back in the day, Tom the Great Tom Kite, and is the consistency of golf back in the day, back in Austin, Texas. In the celebrity golf tournaments,
I would I would carry the bag of Tom Kite. Yeah, but would you talk about pin placement, how far out he is and give them tips on how to play the shot? Could you read the greens and and you know the distance and things like that? Big? Were you accurated with that? I was pretty accurate with distance. I basically you know, I give the three wood to Tom and say Tom down the middle, Brother, down the middle, Tom Kite, Tom down the middle. Baby would say,
how would you respond to that? Got it? He'd said, Nick, I'm killing it. I'm killing it. Now. Were you with Tom when he won? He won one or two majors? I think I was. I only carry you for Kite in the charity charity golf tournaments. Ah, but he was so simple to caddy for because down the middle man just you know, you hit it down the middle. Hey, Then that the gold vick of every single, every single get yourself in position for the next
shot. Absolutely. So what I'm asking is how much of a stretch was that for you to tell Tom Kite, Hey, hit it down the middle. Once he was like you one hundred and seventy from the whole, and he'd ask him, Vic, what do you think of you know? Seven six? I'd said, Tom, doing nice easy six. There you go, nice easy six, don't puck big. How heavy was Tom Kite's bag? It was pretty heavy. It was an alligator bag. Alligator bag. Man, it was pretty heavy. Then you got all the accouterments in the
bag, you know, not just the clubs. You got the umbrellas, you got in case it rains, you got sweaters, you got hats, you got balls, you got te's. It's a heavy bag, Vic. Was there a point? Was there a point where it was so heavy you couldn't put it over your shoulder any longer and just held it with two hands in front of you and walked. Never at that point I would straddle that bag over my shoulder and just keep just keep moving. Would he tipped you
after the round? Absolutely no. There was a charity golf tournament. Absolutely no, absolutely no, it was you know, it was just caddy should be should always be tipped. Yeah, carrying all those as equipment, sweating, yeah or not, you got to tip the caddy did it for the love, you know, for the love of the of the charity. Look, just to be on the course with Kite was a thrill. Do youre any trash talking out there? Vic? Not? Tom Kite very clean,
very business like. That might add to the PGA tour though, you know, well I heard that they're doing more more micing of the players. You know, they understand they want to get closer to the fans, so there's gonna be more micing of of golfers. I believe as a caddy, did Tom Kite ever ask you to clean his glasses? Yes? I believe he did. And did you have the beautiful ropper cloth to clean his glasses? Absolutely? So here you go, Tom, nice and clean, total clarity,
and we claro, here's a six iron. He was a pleasure to caddy for. Well, that was something we never knew. Yeah. I was a caddy for many, many years of my formative years. Every every summer I would caddy up in upstate New York at the Tuxedo Golf Club in Touxedo, New York. Uh huh, Well, they would tip you, wouldn't they? Oh? Absolutely, sensational tippers. Some roll Back in the day, I called for Pat some Roll a few times. Oh did you
really, Pat some Roll would come over. Sensational golfer. Hit a tough short game, but he would drive her three hundred yards. I mean he was an incredible Oh that was a kicker. So that makes sense to me to a certain degree. But have a couple of pops on the course, wouldn't he? Listen? Every wanted a few pops on the course for it? Were you trying to say, Red that Pat summer All probably tossed a
few back on the course. What an unusual form everyone? Everyone, You know, once you start golfing in a relaxed setting, everyone's gonna have a pop. No, you're gonna get your your sandwiches and a beer at the air well as the seventh hole is usually like a pop up, uh, pop up sandwich shop with beer. No doubt you'd have a sandwich while you were out there. I wouldn't eat when I was out there. Water. Yeah, you grab a water, that's it. Yeah, you just focused.
You got a cigar, victor, little cigar, little little glass, little beer. As you as you're making the turn at the turn, Oh, yeah, to turn. Absolutely? Are you sure that was a cigar? Kivin Just ask your questions. I'm just inquiring. When I was inquiring, minds, you know, knowing Victor is probably a blunt right, Victor, Well, I was very young. Wrong. You had to come out and say yeah, well, hey, I mean I'm speaking to twelve years
old, thirteen years old, fourteen years old? Well you started young, Vic. Geez told a young caddy if Vic, you ever tells somebody what club do you use or you know, read the green and you were wrong? Yes, of course, what would they say to you? Well, it was reflected in the tip for it. Oh if you misread the greens at the end of eighteen and they lost, you know, they lost their
their bets. Obviously, if you were causing them to lose the bet, you'd be part of the of the of the negative cares flow and it affected your tip. So once your there, man, there's a lot of pressure on a caddy. Man. I'm sure that a lot of people would look for you and wanted you. But were there people that said I don't want him. I think I was a mixed bag. Fred I was a mixed
bag. Some people requested me, I was very very lucky, and some people, you know, the caddies obviously, uh had broken and LA sports, that's going to be a cliffhanger. That's going to be a cliphanger. They hold on, that's a cliffhanger. We'll get right back to it. Come on, keep it moving, keep it moving, Vic, I need
you to finish that listen. I had caddying multi skills. But of course some great caddies in my caddy shack back in the day, Jay and Dave, we're the top two because they were like, who are Jane Dave? There were four or five years older than me, and they played sensational golf. They were like scratch golfers and they were caddying well, Jay and Dave,
Jay and Dave sensational. And I'll tell you who's been sensational. As I told you when David Vassa planted the seeds, Blake trining very impressive at Camelback Ranch. Dodgers fans a feeling you very impressive. Yesterday he was throwing to a lot of guys and the players were very impressed with Blake tryning.
But you say, oh, Tony's son yet to face live batting practice, but still ahead of scare Jewel. He had ten homers and twenty nine swings today at camel Back Ranch at batting practice, and the show should be ripping live pitching next week. And Dave Roberts has been saying that Otani will be ready for the first game of the regular season March twentieth in South Korea against
the Padres. Listened to every historic pitch from Soul right here the home of Otani, shar and the Dodgers am five to seven the ELI Sports And I've been telling you guys for the years, OLTONI son's personality, so Gregarias, he's very friendly, Tiascar Hernandez says of Otani. Quote, He's a very likable person. He's very friendly. He likes to make friends, and I'm the same way. So I like spending time with him and getting to know him better. Tiasca Hernandez, there you go, Vic, how much time
have you actually spent with Otani? I feel like I know O Tani. I know I have not spent any time with Otani, but I feel I know him. Been following him, you know, since high school in Japan. Of course, the six years with the Angels. I feel very close to Otani. He's just a wonderful presence. But you don't know him. I don't know him personally, I feel I know him. I feel close to him. You know what I'm very close to is pizza, Fellas. I was I was nurtured by pizza and growing up in New York City.
I mean, who was it? He always had a slice in your hand. Very important food group to everyone. And you know, the most expensive peace in America? Right? It hit me. Oh here we go, all right, good big pizza pie. That's some more. Hey, that's love, Fellas. Where do you think the most expensive pizza is New York? Exactly? New York City? How much for a pie? One topping? Most expensive? How much? Fifty nine? No way, Rodney, this is pizza. I'm not talking to you know, caviar toppings, right,
I'm talking one toping mozzarella, one topping, mozzarella. Average average average pie, a full pie, large pieco a large pie, large pie, twenty two dollars. Okay, fag what do you think? Thirty four? Oh man, you are you're straddling the cut line right there, Ronnie. What do you think I'm gonna go thirty five very close, thirty three dollars and sixty five cents. Ah wow, I'll bet you you can find a
pizza for thirty three bucks in La vic. Well, some pizza places in New York even have the nerve to charge a three dollars and fifty cents administrative fee and a pie. The hell is that supposed to mean? Administrate this? Right? Well, that's gonna watch your fat ass New York pizza anyway. I'm a Chicago deep disc guy. So restaurants here do that too. By the way, there are restaurants that charge that here too. What does
that mean? That means they make more money basically, yeah, that means it goes toward benefits and things for the employees because they don't pay him enough. We did a whole thing on this a few weeks ago, about a month ago, didn't we. Yeah, that's a hitting administrator fee and all that. That's ludicrous. That cannot be the most expensive pizza in the country thirty three bucks. There's got to be one more expensive. There is one. When I was in Vegas recently, there was a there was a pizza
pie going for forty bucks. Well, they're VIC a whole pie expense. But then again, you know, consider the fact that it is Vegas and everything is inflated in Las Vegas. Well, it's still forty bucks, so that would be more expensive from extensive research. In New York City, it's New York City's thirty three sixty five one topping to go. You mean in New York the most expensive? No, in America. Why he just told you there was a pizza for forty dollars in Las Vegas. He wasn't listening
that it was an oberation. If you got VIC, I guarantee if you go there now, the pizza is probably going to be about forty two bucks. Easy. Was it was? Was that super Bowl prices? No, VIC, it's a regular priced pizza. I was not there for the Super Bowl. I was there for the uh, the AFC and NFC playoffs, so it did calls for the Super Bowl. Week got the playoff pizza. Yeah, it's a basically you're gonna pay about forty two bucks for a pizza in Vegas, VIC, And it has nothing to do with the Super Bowl.
That's just the inflated price. Prices are always inflated in Vegas. Yeah, yeah, well, remember there's a Hawaiian spot. Victor is like, I think it's a pizza in the forties as well. Damn confirms that that's not the most expensive pizza. One topping, Yeah, one topping, Yeah, one topping vic forty two bucks. Yeah, well that's that's crazy. That's more loco. Yeah, so that's more local. Forty bucks for a pizza to go. No, not so that, but that's that's the most
expensive. Now, well, according to my pizza sauces, it's thirty three sixty five. Not to be outdone, right, Vick, I've done my Piecelessen, I do a lot of pizza research, you know me? No, yes? Do you know what that leads is too big to the source? Yes, it do. It's all about the All Star Game, and I'm quoting a rock band out of San Jose this nineteen ninety nine song of inspiration to be as fabulous as you can be. With the All Star weekend
looming and snowy Indie Indianapolis native Babyface will be singing the national anthem. By the way, Jennifer will be rocking halftime. There's a lot, a lot of great entertainment. You're gonna see some mind blowing dunks. But they should do away with that dough Vic that's no fun. Yeah, let's do away with all of that. Yeah, give everybody the days off. Listen. I'm still a sucker for the slam dunk. I love the creativity. I love the creativity. It's school yard, man, It's the ultimate school yard
play. Yeah, the visuals and the guys on the sidelines, doctor J judging all of that. You know what Fred wants like an old timers game, that's what just that's what you want to see, right. If I have John Halchek out there, yeah, have Hondo? Yeah right, don't they have as they have a w NBA player in the three point contest too. I think it's just a one on one between Steph and S three and NYE and Escu, just the two of them. Month they put Caitlin Clark
in there. Congratulations Kaitlyn Clark. Yeah, might as well. She's a pro anyway these days, right, college kids professional, same difference. Yeah. I want to see her state farm commercials. He's making money, so why the hell not? Yea. Caitlin Clark was burying Jay's from like forty feet out last night in Iowa City. But that's not fun to watch, according Fred So, no, that'd be fun to watch her. No, she was just going for the record. Do you really didn't care? No,
congratulations Kathlyn Clark sensational accomplishment. Who knew Kelsey Plumb had that record before her? Sure it did. Guys know that packswell college there would be big ten. I guess all right, So if we had the high coup yet, go something like this for it. It's this high coup for you on this Friday, February the sixteenth. Hey, now you're an all star, get your game on, go play. Hey, now you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid and all that glitters his gold.
