You can't handle the true now told our players you need a bit more like a dog. We don't need a bunch of cats in here looking in the mirror. But I look good. I got my extra bands on, I got my other shoes. Be a doll. We don't need no meals. We don't need no cats. We need more dolls. Why you're not a detain Oh you're not. At the time, we
weren't good. There's no sense of asking me things about the game. I'm telling you we laid an egg. So I'm not gonna break it down for you. He sucks. He sucked. He laid an egg. That's all I have to say. Guys, I'm sorry. I'm not gonna break it down for you. Nothing went well for us. It's on us. We have to figure it out, and we went dad. You know that first clip from Jim Callahan, You know of Yukon head coach. People were asking
about his salary. He had no problem accepting it, nor should he, because of the amount of money that he brought into the school Kirby Smart. This goes back to what we were just talking about. Kirby Smart brings in a lot of money. University of Georgia makes a lot of money. He should bring in a lot of money to the school. He should because of the stuff that he gets paid. I mean, you're talking about thirteen million dollars. It's crazy. Welcome back. Final hour of the program, Exes
and Bros. Throughout the Great State of Michigan on the Michigan Sports Network. We're on throughout the state, different places in Flint and Cadillac, where in Grand Rapids, we're in Grayling and Gaylord, Midland, Saginaw, Bay City, Potoski, Charlevoy, Traverse City as well. If you missed it last night, Bruins lose in Toronto two one. William Nilander had both goals for the Maple Leafs. It was a hell of a game, so they force
a game seven. Indiana blows out in Milwaukee on the hardwood one twenty to ninety eight. The Bucks are out. Indiana will play New York because the Knicks beat the Sixers in Philadelphia one eighteen to one fifteen. Jalen Brunson had forty one points in twelve assists. We talked about that a little bit earlier. Some of the lesser known people in the NBA or where they were drafted
and things of that nature. Some of the lesser known people who are becoming bigger names, and Brunson is one of them, a former second round pick. Tigers are in New York for a weekend series against the yank He's starting tonight. It will be Resulson against Marcus Stroman. Stroman coming off his shortest start of the season, just four innings. The Yankees lost to Baltimore yesterday seven to two. We go to the full lines and the Meyer hotline eight
sixty six, eight three, eight forty eight forty three. Freddie has been standing by. Good morning, Freddy, how are you, Bud? Good morning chef. You You might have touched on my my point. I was gonna make a different angle on it. But first of all, I will tell you I I agree with the money in sports is is ridiculous. It's
not just college football, obviously, it's it's every sport. It bothers me more in college because college was, you know, an old guy like me, It was just so pure and fun to watch and it just seemed like, uh he watched the games, they were they were I mean, maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right, but it just seemed like the players play for for the game and it was more than it was. It was about winning. And it's just it's different now, and the money has ruined a
lot of it. So I so I'm with you on that. I I mean, I got a fourteen year old, and I see it with I mean, my wife hides hides how much she spends on travel volleyball, you know, because she knows, uh, you know, how furious. And then and then we got to center her the Grand Rapids too to play a game, and we're playing in Northville. Why don't we have to go to Grand Rapids? Why why are we making parents spend all this money? Why
can't we you know, stuff like that. Look, I mean, those are those are slightly different things, and I can relate, and I think it's great. I do. I think it's awesome that your daughter's in travel volleyball. It can be really expensive because I've got friends who had the same thing. My kids were in travel hockey and travel lacrosse and travel baseball, So I get it. It's a commitment by parents because you want the best
for you kid at the time of their lives. Give them the opportunity to experience things that maybe you never did, or give them the opportunity to play athletes who are as good, if not better than they are, test them against the ultimate competition. Nothing wrong with that. I think it's great. I think it's slightly different at the collegiate level. You know. My question to you, and it would be to myself too, why are you doing it? Then? What's the payoff? Why don't you just have to play
quote unquote house then? And here's the reason, at least it was for me. I think, first of all, I think travel sports in general are watered down. I'm not saying volleyball or your your daughter's volleyball team. I'm saying in general. I can't tell you how many people are running. My kid plays travel baseball. He's eight years old. For crying out loud, Okay, when I was eight we were playing T ball. Maybe that's
where some of the fundamentals are lost. But the reason you do it is because you want your kid to participate in play against the very best, and you want them to be able to measure themselves. And that's a good thing. I think. Yeah, I my thing is to travel for the parents. I guess that's what it is. It just it just puts a stream. What else you're gonna do? What else you're gonna do? Okay? You you've had your time as a kid and a young man, not that
you're old, but what what's wrong with going on? What? Watch your kid play in Grand Rapids. That's fantastic, great city. And what else are you gonna do? I don't get I don't I don't get to go though. The wife gets to go with. Okay, Well, what are you gonna do? Okay? What I mean? What are you gonna spend your money on? Spend your money on your kids? Well, well I do, but I tell you, but I'll tell you. I'll tell you a funny story. Shop. You know, because I've been listening to you
for so long, over ten years. You usually tell this story all the time. One of your favorite things were sitting in practice and watching your kids. Do you realize that's one of my favorite things to do. My eight year old, Well, she goes and plays volleyball at the church. I'm the only parent there now, sitting on my phone I'm sitting there watching my daughter practice, and nothing brings me more joy than watching my eight year old. Well she's ten now, but watching my eight year old learn how to
play volleyball. And this year for ustrations. Yeah, yeah, I absolutely I have nothing. I mean, I can have the worst day at work and I generally don't works usually good for me. But when I go see my ten year old now, but when she was a incredible I never I never experienced anything like that in my life. It's the best day, best day of your life. It makes up for a really tough week and all everything goes. It's good for you. I knew you were a good dad.
I'm glad you did that. Thanks for the phone call. I have a great weekend. That's what it's about. Man. There's I drive by the other day. My wife and I were going for a walk with our dogs in the neighborhood and I heard you could hear a little league baseball game going on, and I said, we should go over there, let's go watch those kids play. I miss that part. There's some really good songs where you've heard the phrase you know you don't know what you got till it's
gone. You're gonna miss this. Absolutely, you'll miss it. There's nothing like going to watch your child play. What pisses me off as much as anything in life, is going to something like that and watching parents self indulge rather than give their time to their child. Parents who are up in the stands on their phone, because that's more important to follow social media than it is to watch your child participate in an event. Parents in the stands reading
the newspaper, reading a book. Think of that for a minute. You got an hour. You can't give a kid an hour because they notice it. Don't kid yourself. If they notice it, they know what's going on. I miss those days more than anything. And if you're going to get your child involved in travel athletics, and I encourage you to do so, and I would encourage you to go outside the state. My son missed. He missed trips, family trips to play travel lacrosse in Maryland and places out
east. It's what he wanted. He wanted to measure himself against the best, and then he was fortunate enough to play in college. I loved it. I encouraged it. If that's what you want, do it. Just understand this. If you're going to do something like that. If that's what you want, make the commitment you want a financial commitment from me. The financial and emotional commitment needs to come from you. Back with more on Exs and Bros. After this. This is the Michigan Sports Now in the Den

that player, and he's doing something every game for this Tiger's team. He's arguably the Tiger's best base runner and infielder by trade, is getting better each day in the outfield, and oh yeah, he can hit a little bit Parra's hit his first major league home run Sunday against the Kansas City Royals, and then the switch hitter had a two homer game against the Cardinals a couple
of days later, with a home run from each side. Haarrah has only got the call to Detroit because of some injuries, but sure it looks like he's going to stay.

a kid an hour if you're at a practice or something like that. And I had mentioned my son, one of my sons had gone to he had missed a family trip to King Cod because he'd rather have gone to a couple of his travel across team tournaments out east, uh to measure themselves against some of the best who play the sport, some massive tournaments that saw college coaches come from all over the country. We did go to some of the tournament, but you know, we're still as a family. You're gonna you're gonna
take your family vacation. It was just a choice of his. We didn't necessarily say, hey, listen, you've got to do one or the other. He chose to do it and it did pay off for him, but we were used to that. I do believe, and again this is not on any one particular sport or age group or area, but I do believe
we have watered down travel athletics. I think you can find a travel team in just about every city in any state you live in, and to me, travel everybody has different definitions, I suppose, but to me, travel is a little bit more than just going in the state of Michigan, for example. I mean go outside the state, go places. My oldest boy played on a travel baseball team. There were people going to Texas and Arizona and Colorado for tournaments. I'm like, wow, Freddie's right. The amount
of money you could spend is incredible. I think a guy once told me, I want to make sure I get the number right. I think with sixteen thousand dollars he spent on some travel baseball for one summer, it's over sixteen thousand dollars. That's a hefty sum. That's a really hefty sum. Speaking of travel, Jack Nicholas has traveled all over the world. As the greatest golfer of all time. I believe he's the greatest golfer of all time. I suppose that's up for debate. Here's what we do know. Jack
Nicholas is the greatest champion. He's won more championships, more majors than anybody else eighteen and he has finished second more than anybody else. Whether it's he or Tiger Woods is not what the topic is about. But Jack Nicholas, who doesn't play golf really that much anymore because of injuries and his age and so on and so forth. He's eighty four, all right, We all know that. It wasn't long ago when the Masters concluded and Scottie Scheffler won
his second Green jacket in three years. Well, according to reports, Jack Nicholas stuck around Augusta to play the course three times. He did a really nice job as a guest analyst on Golf Network when they were asking him about how would you play certain shots? He knows that course so well. It's amazing. He knows the course so well. He was able to describe just about every single shot you need, where you want to be on every single
hole. It's amazing, simply amazing. When I watched him do an interview on the Golf Channel for an extended period of time, but he stuck around Augusta to play and he played it three times, three times. Now. This is he said this. He says, they don't have forward teams at Augusta. It's hard for me to play long courses. I can't play sixty four hundred yards because on a good day, I'm hitting the ball one hundred and ninety yards now. Scotty Scheffler won the tournament. Everybody knows that his
final score was eleven under par. He shot sixty six. He shot seventy two, seventy one, sixty eight. Parer is seventy two. The yardage is seven thousand, five hundred and fifty five yards at Augusta. That's long. I don't know how many of you guys out there and you lady out there play golf. I love the sport, absolutely love it. I could play it every day. I don't hit it very far. I played yesterday with two of my sons, had an absolute blast. I think the course
was maybe sixty five hundred yards. I played well on the front. We played for the Blues. Okay, I'm probably better off playing from the whites. We played for the Blues. I played really well on the front shot of forty three. Feel pretty good about that, right. My goal is to break ninety. Get that done. I feel good, okay. Jack Nicholas is eighty four playing arguably the most prestigious golf course in the country, maybe the world. At age eighty four, he shot an eighty eight,
a ninety and a ninety one. Now, before you sit there and say, what's so great about that, he hasn't played that course since two thousand and five. Don't give me this honorary starter stuff. All right, he hasn't played the course since two thousand and five. I mean he's played in the par three contest, I guess, but he finished doing that in twenty twenty two. So he hasn't played the course since two thousand and five.
He's eighty four years old. And on top of that, think of this, even at his eight how many times is he playing three rounds of eighteen in as many days you and your buddies go on golf trips in the summertime, you're playing, you know, maybe thirty six holes one day. Then you have a rough Friday night. I'm speaking from experience here. You have a rough Friday night, you play eighteen the next day, and then maybe you play eighteen on the getaway day unless you had another rough night Saturday.
And again speaking from some experience, yeah, it's it's really hard. And yet at age eighty four, he goes out there and puts together a total three rounds of two sixty nine the worst score at Augusta This past year, twenty twenty four, there were a number of scores in the eighties. The worst score came from Emiliano Grillo. He shot in eighty three in round two.
He's thirty one years old. Jack Nicholas is fifty three years older than Emiliano Grillo, and Grillo beat him by five strokes on his worst day and Jack Nicholas's best. That is a wide gap in age, but not in playing that course. Muscle memory to me, that's that's a that's a muscle memory type situation. Amazing his body. I mean, he just wouldn't you love to know if he has ever duffed one? Would you love to know if he's ever topped one off the tee? There's no way that could have
happened recently. What an amazing story. I find that fascinating. Our phone number on the Meyer hotline eight sixty six eight three eight forty eight forty three.

It doesn't make him the most popular, but I do belie Leave it makes them different. There are certain sports I really love, probably sports that you don't necessarily love as much, because I like people. I like the toughness of them. It's one of the reasons I've always said, I
don't get why more people don't gravitate in this country. You don't gravitate toward the sport of lacrosse. It has everything you want. It has the toughness of hockey. It has the high scoring more than hockey. The high scoring if you will, of well, it's not one hundred and twelve points like in basketball, but I mean there's there's scoring. There's a lot of scoring and a lot of scoring chances. Sure as hell isn't soccer, I'm telling
you right now. And then it has the physicality of football, where guys are just you should see the amount of I mean, the stick wax on people's arm, the checks, the shoulder checks, the body slams. You got to be a tough hombree to play it. Hockey. Same thing. Love football, love hockey, love lacrosse. It's not that I don't love the other sports, because I do. I marvel at the athleticism in basketball.
I've always loved baseball, but I've really grown an appreciation and I've always loved football, played it ever since I was a little kid, but I've really grown for the appreciation of hockey lacrosse particularly anyway, when you think of hockey, I think a lot of people do think of the toughness. Recently, an ESPN program, the Pat McAfee Show, had Matthew could Chuck on he of the Florida Panthers after the eliminated Tampa and he said, the host
said, this guy's one of the toughest dudes ever. Last year saw him literally with a broken stern a broken femur which I don't recall that, a broken hand, Yeah, beat up shoulders, fractured skull. Taped him up, went out on the ice, pushed his way through and played. Why is hockey so different and why can they do that? Why do they feel it's necessary playing through a fractured sternum? Remember what Nick Lidstrom did back in two thousand and nine, what Mark Stone did this year from Las Vegas.
It's a different mindset. Man, it's a different feel, it's a different expectation, obligation. Where does it stem from. Who knows? Everybody's different, right. It's not to say that other players and other sports aren't tough or as tough or tougher or more dedicated, but there is something about being raised as a hockey player. Now maybe things are changing a little bit.
I don't know, because a friend of mine recently told me he was disgusted when he took his little one into a rink and he saw parents carrying their kids' bags. So maybe it's a little bit of a softness from that standpoint. We never did that with our kids. Our kids had to carry their own bag. Son. My sons could fit inside their hockey bags. They were just little kids when they were four or five years old. They could fit inside the hockey bag, crawl in there. If you take all their
pads out, they could crawl in there. We could zip it up and carry them off. But they carried those bags into the rink every single practice, in every single game, two sticks in one hand, bag over the shoulder, the other, leaning forward like they were running downhill and going into the arena. That's what I love most about it. And I sure hope parents aren't replacing that. I think it's an important part of the sport,
I really do. I hope you're not saying, you know what, six am is too early for me, so I'm not going to get up and take my kid to practice. No, man, it's a great way to start the day. I think you can get up for six am t time, couldn't you? Or at six am tailgate at U of M for a Neon game. You can make a flight at six am, can't you. That's kind of in my mindset when I read the article. It kind of took me back a little bit to those types of days because Matthew Kuchuk and
others have mentioned the same thing, speaking of toughness. It's one of the reasons I love the Lions draft pick of Terry on Arnold. It would be interesting to know how many teams, scouts, assistant general managers, general managers, whatever call the coaches of some of the players they're considering drafting. Nick Saban said something pretty interesting draft night. It's not many teams that call him.
There's a documentary called the Art of Coaching. It kind of put on display the bond between Bill Belichick and Nick Saban, and Saban had kind of gone off rather showing some frustration and being upset on how NFL teams evaluate talent, and he said this. He said, one thing that you do referring to the NFL that a lot of NFL guys don't do. And he was referring to Bill Belichick here. He said, one thing that you do that a lot of NFL guys don't do. I don't know if you've ever picked
one of your guys, if you've before talking to me. In other words, I'm thinking about drafting this guy who played for you at Alabama. Tell me what you think of him. Doing your homework, Saban said, there's a few other guys in the league that do that, but not many. Then there's a number of teams, thirty tams, he said, that I never hear from. And they picked somebody and I think you picked that guy, and after a while they'll say, well, we didn't know this.
Well, that's because you didn't make a phone call. It sure seems like the Lions have called him on more than one occasion. When you're drafting guys from Alabama who played for Nick Saban, it seems like Brad Holmes and his staff have at least touched base there to see what kind of player is Brian Branch, Jamison Williams, Terry On Arnold. First of all, I love that about Brad Holmes and his staff. That's number one. Number two,
I love the fact that Saban was a tough as nails coach. Not every coach has to be tough, grinded out tough love okay with every single player because players are different, different players I like in coaching to being a father all the time or being a parent. Just because you have four children doesn't mean that you parent them all the same. The rules can be the same,
This is my belief. Now, the rules can be the same doesn't mean that you go about it exactly the same with every single one of them, because not all of them. Not every person responds to things. I mean you know this. You have a working environment, You're probably respond to certain type of criticism or critiques. Let's do critiques different than others. Now, I don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of people who constantly have
to be patted on the butt or pat it on the back. And I sure don't want to be around people who feel like you can never do anything right either. But the belief is that Nick Saban is that tough love guy. So that's awesome. He's a tough love guy. And Terry On Arnold
responds. Jamiir Gibbs has responded. Branch has responded. Williams has responded, you would expect the same from this guy who, at one point during his career was benched and rather than crawling away, hiding in a corner, sucking a thumb, threatening to transfer, giving up, down playing everything that took place, bad mouthing the guy who took his job, what did he do? He was there to be supportive, and he was there to try and
get better and regain the position. Professional example, a couple nights ago, Matt Verlin gets pinched hit four. He's playing his hometown team, Saint Louis, He's got friends and family in the stands. He's disappointed. Carrie Carpenter comes in, gets a sacrifice, fly gets the job done, first player out of the dugout, first player at the top steps of the dugout to congratulate Carpenter for a job well done. With Matt Verlin, those are the
guys you want on your team. We all want stars, we all want guys who can produce, but we want guys who understand the process, understand what it takes to be better, are willing to sacrifice to get better, and are willing to listen to the hard coaching of a proven coach to get better. That to me, makes it a really good pick. If you have to constantly massage an ego, constantly massage feelings on the football field, you're in trouble. With over one hundred guys on the field. For Alabama,
that's impossible. With eighty or fifty four guys on the field for the Lions, it's challenging too. You have to take you can't dedicate it to one guy all the time. So I love that and it makes me happy and even solidify more when you read stories like this, solidify more of the reasons why Detroit may have drafted him. Willing to accept hard coaching. That's awesome. I would hope that's the way it is in a lot of different moments for athletes or for people in general. Did you see the video.
It's a really good I think people what they want out of sports because every game's on TV, and because so many interviews are done with players in front office personnel, and you get video and audio clips and various social media sites and online. It's really hard to perhaps keep people's attention for an extended period of time on one thing. But what the Eagles did recently was brilliant, and I think the Lions do it. I'm sure every team does it.
They put a camera and a microphone on people, just to give you an idea of what the process is all about. What's it like being in the draft room. Well, we're going to show you. The Eagles did that. They put a camera and they had their general manager miked up how he rose, and they in the second round, they really wanted Iowa corner Cooper dejen. They were trying to figure out a way to trade up. Now they had already selected Quinnon Mitchell in the first round, the kid out of
Toledo, but they wanted another defensive back. So here's what they did. They're planning to trade up to the eighth pick of the second round, number forty. Remember I told you the other day, general managers, front office personnel do not use rounds. They use picks overall picks. And if you listen to the video, of this behind the scenes Philadelphia Eagles draft room, you'll notice the same thing Roseman. That's all he does. He just says, taking pick this, this, this, for this, this and this.
He was hoping that Degene would fall. The Rams had just trade it up to number thirty nine, so he thought for sure that the Rams were going to take him. And he was a little disappointed, like, ah, that's it. They didn't take him. They took Florida State defensive tackle Braden Fisk instead, former Western Michigan guy who transferred to Florida State. And upon hearing this, he pumped his fist, screamed how much jubilation he had, hugged his owner made the pick, and then quickly got him on the
phone. That full access video the team has a YouTube account. That full access video is there for anyone to see. And he brought up a great point following that. Wearing the microphone, he says, you don't know how everyone else sees things. We know how we see things, and you get into your own head where you go every but he's got to see it the same way. It doesn't work out that way. So the Eagle secondary might be the best in football. You got Queen Men, Mitchell, you got
Cooper Dejeen, You have Darius Slay and CJ. Gardner. Johnson Dejeene can play safety your corner. It goes to show you you and I have different opinions on players. Doesn't mean that one person is always right or wrong. But if you and I are going to have different opinions, you don't think front office personnel are going to have different opinions, especially with all their scouts watching different people. I read an article yesterday where people thought Detroit showed some
arrogance by drafting Rakestraw on the second round. My immediate thought was, are you kidding me? Arrogance? I think it's brilliant. It's where they had him on their board. They actually had him higher according to Brad Holmes, and knowing that this team is only going to have one cornerback under contract after this year before the draft, tells you even more about the need for that
situation and take the need out of it. It's just where they had him graded, which is the first and foremost most important thing as far as I'm concerned. They saw it in a different way. Let's see if the lines can prove them wrong. Let's see if Rakestraw can prove them wrong. I thought it was fantastic. It's another example of what makes sports so great. I think it's just how people feel differently about different things when it comes to
the draft specifically. But I loved the comment from Nick Saban and I thought it just kind of went back to just how important it was. You know, we see Detroit moving up five spots for Dallas to get terry On Arnold and thinking to ourselves, Oh, they traded up for a need. They traded up for the player, not for the need. They traded up for the player. They didn't trade up for the pick. They traded for the player. That's the most important thing to remember moving forward in any draft,
I hope with any general manager, picks are great. Oh they gave up a couple of thirds to get this guy. You got the player you wanted. That was most important, really important.
