Hey shop are you still awake. What would not be. I don't know because we have 1/3 yeah well I hear you saying you we got a Thursday night football match of right now. We got the Denver Broncos at home against the Indianapolis Colts and the Broncos lead 623 almost fell asleep. Shop almost fell asleep but I won't ever fall asleep to you are listening to you. So I go to sleep anytime soon will you got a work we were working together. Yes, this game will put anybody asleep. This game is some I can't say the word almost said it is not the appropriate word to say this game is crap. 63 and I knew this game was going to be crap Russell Wilson is out here running around he's trying to identify who you throw the football to Jonathan Taylor for the Indianapolis Colts. This man is not even plan is his ankle is busted up. They just went to a commercial and going into the commercial break. They show Indianapolis court and Indianapolis Colts man shaking his head like damn we can't do nothing. And the answer is yes y'all can't do anything it sucks Denver Broncos they leave the Indianapolis Colts tonight 623 in this game has sock our God will talk about this game when it comes to a conclusion.

Russell Wilson is the big star right who's the big star for the Indianapolis Colts. They don't have one, they went out there and they were able to pick up Matt Ryan in the off-season, it's just disastrous for the calls, especially with no Jonathan Taylor play. It's ugly that we already have Hines go out with like a head injury in this. It's ugly. Tonight is an ugly game unless you like to see people suffer concussions, or unless you like to see low-scoring game. So, obviously, will keep you up-to-date as this game continues and then when Russell Wilson speaks will bring that see you as well because I am sure I am certain that one Russell Wilson speaks, he's going to bring you the most vanilla boring statement ever. I leave it there. I want to go to for when lose or draw, of which there have been draws the Indianapolis Colts. They tied early this season Russell was in a go see a damn thing and we'll talk about that as the show continues. That's not the only news that has permeated or gone through tonight. There's more and more that comes out about Tom Brady and unfortunately his relationship to his. I don't know I guess soon to be ex-wife Tom Brady talks about how brutal of a game. This is Joe Burrell talks about how brutal of again. Mrs. Joe Burrell says that there have been halves of games that I do not even remember the dream on green and sponging his teammates in the face. Yeah, the defending champion Golden State Warriors. Their meeting, no big surprises.

Raymonde is punching people in the face. Brady says the game is dangerous executives in the MBA have started to proclaim their future and BPs to keep things rolling. And I do want to talk to you about Lebron James pretty hilarious. Lebron James is just like your folks I needed seen in Vegas so we have a lot to discuss here over the next four hours. Let me remind you, is about 12 minutes left in the third quarter in right now.

The Denver Broncos lead the Indianapolis Colts 623 year a lot of offense and that's me being sarcastic. If you want to holler at me.

It's real simple.

The number here is 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS.

You can also identify and find me online all social media. I am at JR sport brief and we got a lot of time to talk about Matt Ryan. We got a lot of time to talk about Russell Wilson. We got a lot of time to get into some of these other quarterbacks and losers, etc., but let's start off the show talking about someone who is not a loser. Let's start off the show talking about someone who is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Let's talk about someone who is literally eating the record books alive. Best, Lebron James. We have about two weeks before we get to the start of the regular season.

We can take a look at the Los Angeles Lakers. They are a storybook. All by them selves. Russell Westbrook is still limiting a former MVP. The man who just grabs triple doubles like they are nothing but what does that mean to a team that's trying to go out there and compete for championship. Nothing. What does that mean for team that has Lebron James. Nothing what you mean forcing the has Alamo Anthony Davis, who unfortunately already has been suffering from a sore back. Russell Westbrook is still a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. He asked again and where he can fit it in the Lakers are big three of Anthony Davis. Lebron and Westbrook always sounds good if this was five years ago. I guess I mean, will mail and so typically, knowing that we have about two weeks of the start of the NBA regular season when preseason mode right now and if you're like me, I do not care about preseason. I will look at the numbers I will look at the stats I will glance at them and I will keep it moving because we especially when I say we hear on CBS sports radio. The JR sport brief show where going to talk about basketball until June will talk about the best players in the game until June will take a look at the All-Star numbers until February and then after that it's just the Sprint to the postseason. And so it's a beautiful place right now. Preseason games are going on. I have seen James Harding cross a guy over obscene Lebron James got the basketball obscene Anthony Davis sit on the bench with a sore back.

Who cares about preseason, is Lebron going to be available for I don't know maybe June you hope so is Anthony Davis going to be around at the end of the season. All of them. I hope so. But before we get there to the postseason.

We get the preseason we have NBA teams which visit cities that typically would not host a regular-season game. We know the Oklahoma City thunder. They play in Oklahoma City or less. Why not put it, semen and salsa. Let's get a preseason game and salsa. Let's start putting preseason games and all the locales in all the locations that we would typically not get regular season fans and so last night the NBA smartly said we don't have a team in Vegas, the NHL has a team in Vegas may be major league baseball will get a team in Vegas. The WNBA team has a squat in Vegas. The Raiders have gone out to Vegas disposal preseason game. Let's put the Lakers and the sun is out in Vegas.

The two teams closest to the desert closest to the strip and let's see what happens after the game concluded Lebron James oh yeah the big shot in the NBA.

Lebron James decided to talk to the media because that's his job. The sons beat the Lakers 119 to 115 and Lebron James was asked about the fans in Las Vegas.

Lebron James was asked about the vibe in Las Vegas. Keep in mind Lebron James plays for the loss Angeles Lakers this is what Lebron James had to say about playing in Las Vegas and forget playing potentially owning a team in Las Vegas. Lessons of this drama movie guy talk about one having to be a team mate gives you came here member played against warriors tonight. Do you a lot of love you love you thought of the atmosphere. When you come out to Las Vegas and just you have the defense responded as wonderful as the best families in the world and I would love to bring to me at some point that would be amazing. I know Adam is in Abu Dhabi right now believe forever in a box and Alanna so the price is single interview and transcribe it comes to the players on the team around.

Thank you. Acute that was very cute. What are we supposed to do, Lebron James, a franchise is supposed to fall in his lap from Las Vegas because he's Lebron James, that ain't happening. In short, you can send a message to the Commissioner. We've heard about this for say the better part of a year, Lebron James. We know this.

He wants to only team he wants that seem to play in Las Vegas and then if there's anything else that we learned about Lebron, and I guess this is more immediate. He wants to play with his son and God bless his son today his son turned 18 years old, a beautiful thing. Growth, maturity of beautiful thing. It will go on and on. I'll say it again of beautiful thing, but when it comes to Lebron James wanting to own a team in Las Vegas. Well we got a couple of boxes to check, don't we Lebron James currently six NBA championships. Excuse me for is he going to get to six unlikely is he going to tie or match Michael Jordan unlikely, and if he does is he going to be the God leading the way. Unlikely.

We know that Lebron James Bay to basically right now situated surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar with the most points old time probably passing in February.

Great congratulations to Lebron James and last night I gave you a top six list. We looked at players.

We looked at records that are unlikely to be broken in the professional sports level. Cal Ripken, Junior and his games played Street was number one. We got Lebron James. We don't know how his career was going to end.

He still actively and it is he going to play with his son. He swears up and down that he will consider that he would not be an advocate that he would we talk about Lebron James. Give it till February. Lebron James very well might be the highest scoring player in NBA history. It's likely to happen and so when Lebron James says I want to have a basketball team in Vegas knowing that Lebron James is the only active player that we have ever seen in the NBA, who is a billionaire why would you think different.

It's not like Lebron James is cooked.

It's not like Lebron James's career is over and limited action. Lebron James can wake up and rolled up out of bed and drop 30 points per game. Easy.

He's a bad to. He's one of the greatest basketball players of all time and he is openly jostling for a spot to own and NBA franchise in Las Vegas.

A general Czajkowski and it makes all the sense in the world. He said we are years away from that taking place.

No number no quantifier as a relates to years could be four years five years six is can be 10 years. We know that the Seattle Supersonics gone. We know that Vegas has never had a team. Lebron James has now openly campaigned so only team in Vegas and why wouldn't you emerging market money galore, sore wrist in and out all day long every hour every second of the night big deal when you make a difference for the NBA. We seen this CD money is big money being able to not split the time or the pie in a million ways is big money and it's been reported that we have to wait for the next television contract and big money before the NBA, even considers adding a team or two Las Vegas, Seattle, etc. they got away.

There's no owner trauma split the pie. So Lebron James he can run around and sell, Adam Silver, I want the team in Vegas. We all know you want the team Vegas. We all know you got friends with the money who can help you pay for it. We know brother relax, play basketball, potentially play basketball with your son and then Lebron go by and see Lebron James is worth just north of $1 billion. The team I would assume going into any type of expansion would probably be worth anywhere between I don't know, five to $6 billion to start. I'm not a mathematician, but I know Lebron James being just north of a billionaire wouldn't be able to purchase a team by himself for six he's involved in many investments, many investment groups Fenway sports and entertainment. Lebron James is everywhere. Nothing is going to slow or stop him. It's not going to kill history and go for him. I think Lebron James will have a team in Vegas.

I will note there will be called, but Lebron James will lead the way and I'll tell you this, whatever NBA team ends up in Vegas or Seattle. They cannot be worse than what Michael Jordan has done in Charlotte for the Hornets looked bright and it doesn't look anything but black and desolate. My apologies.

Michael Jordan, one of the richest human beings on earth you're listening to the JR sport reef show right here with you on CBS sports radio. The phone lines are open if you want to give me a holler. 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS we come back let's talk about some actual realistic candidates in the MVP race.

The phone lines open if you want to give me a holler will also give you an update on Thursday night football. We got a lot to do. It is the JR sport reef show on CBS sports radio listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio to the owner wants to hear from you.

Colin know 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-212-4227 is the JR sport brief show here with you on CBS sports radio this Thursday night football hold on I had to wake up and fallen asleep right about that.

Yeah, did I did. It's the third quarter. Right now the Denver Broncos lead the lead the Indianapolis Colts 9268 shop.

I'm here, I'm okay. I fell asleep for minute listing that II can't believe it's not you, since you have made that remark I will say that six points have been scored in this game for about feet yes or no body is is not soccer about Russell Wilson was supposed to cook in Denver with the brought what, what, where is Russell Wilson Cook and listen. The guy was two games in the 500 last year. Like why should we be surprised that mediocrity finds itself not traveling to mile high.

My God, the heiress then right as the ball supposed to travel a little bit further, no leg, and legs up and you got you got up close you use this I mean that Ryan is great is he is a Lena didn't want him.

He was well past his prime last couple years were not talking about 2016 met Ryan here you have the Indianapolis Colts are absolutely wasting their time. They need to get their hands on a young quarterback, someone who is not.

I don't know, Philip Rivers, someone who is not. I don't know, Matthew Ryan look Andrew luck pretty much said list. I've had my share.

I'm using the bathroom on PM blot I'm outta here. Andrew luck selling plan's game no more. He's done. The Indianapolis Colts should have taken it as a cue to, exit stage left and move on, but no, they decided to plug in veterans. The latest of which is Matthew Ryan. They are going nowhere. It's a match made in heaven. The Atlanta Falcons no longer needed. Met Ryan he still is serviceable back quarterback in a call so you shall not come over here yuck note Jonathan Taylor tonight for the Indianapolis Colts. The Denver Broncos, with about three minutes left in the third quarter they lead 9 to 68552124 CBS.

That's 855-2124 CBS before we went to break. We talk about something that's a little bit more realistic. And that's Lebron James owning a basketball team. He made it very clear last night the Los Angeles Lakers they played in Vegas against the Phoenix Suns. They lost two points. No big deal. Who cares preseason Lebron James was asked after the game.

How you feel about playing here in Vegas.

Lebron James over the best bands and hey Adam Silver on only team in Vegas on Lichtenstein ensure he might get that opportunity.

Lebron James is going on 18 is going be the Vegas theme. I guess if he wants and he'll get his hands on it. He can do worse than Michael Jordan right Michael Jordan has to pay the ball or the ball brothers. He got a pair of millions of dollars just to show up and suck their input in fairness it is you and I both know this is very very difficult to own a small market franchise.

He doesn't get enough credit for at least having them in the playoffs can walk by far have the best years of his career under Michael Jordan so uniquely general. He's not a disaster it is that fair to say, Michael Jordan is not a disaster. Think it is what this is the problem in the issue. If you're Michael Jordan in the time is past, we have athletes, active athletes like Trey Young Trey Young out of his mouth said I did not see Michael Jordan play.

He says Kobe Bryant is my Michael Jordan and so if you think Trey Young is saying that we have a generation of people who watch basketball hoop never see Michael Jordan play, which is is perfectly fine, but the fact is Michael Jordan.

He had all the success in the world as a basketball player.

He has had success as an executive as an owner, but the team as a whole has socked one of the Hornets done nothing.

And so here we are.

He has a point guard, but what next, we don't know, and so am I going to crap one Michael Jordan the owner know know I'm not but I'm going to take a look at Michael Jordan and say yeah he can. He can also benefit from getting a little bit to help definitely 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS Mini is calling from flushing you on the JR sport reef show Rocco my brother are you doing excellent. What's up longer regular groundwater.

But I wanted to have borne out near Aaron Kerber Laura Murphy good blog over there goes the woman were offered of the river. Here it brings vertical great astonishment anyway. I Lebron James he will be a better owner because of what are you doing it all on top accordingly.

Think about in the history of Yuri Golightly brothers on all our local to be free brothers on the immunity of the jewelers Bob Johnson, BPM, Michael Jordan, unfortunately Michael Jordan have not done a great job in Charlotte even though they did.

The 12 reef ownership and the last one was 2060 are all good in the lamella ball but in anger the easier critical thinking like that like all like your regular method, but overall I think a lot of you do a great job on the chain because of the of the part of the Fee is resonant in the so absolutely and thank you Manny for calling from flushing.

This is what we've heard over the past 24 to 48 hours.

Lebron James made it very clear he wants to own the NBA franchise that will set up shop in Las Vegas. Okay, sure. Finally get that Lebron James as it's currently constructed today does not have the personal funding or financing to do so. That's not to say that that won't be the case and I'll know for five years, six years from now. Lebron James also made it very clear that he wants to play with his son, who congratulations turned 18 years old today. Lebron James has a lot on his plate has a lot to do wants to play with his son. He wants to own the Vegas franchise in the NBA. He wants to one of the championship just won another title man help Anthony Davis stay healthy. It is a ridiculous risk to do so probably unlikely, but worry about that. We know you got all the money in the world you have now made it verbally clear to the entire public that you want to own the Vegas franchise worry about the Lakers bust as with the Lakers is no magic potion here for Anthony Davis but sell him the shore up the work we can do this. Not fair. Lebron James will continue to decimate the record books.

Most points all time passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Maybe he'll want them of the championship and maybe just maybe one day, and I believe it will happen will be the majority owner of a franchise, but no need to rush this might suck.

This might sound terrible, it might sound awful, but for today, Lebron James, unfortunately, is still considered to be just a basket ball player.

Give it time. That might change the positions might change in everything regarding regarding the business of Lebron, Inc. that will change 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS Lebron James. We know he is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. One of the greatest football players of all time. He's chimed in about his own career. Surprisingly, his name is Tom Brady I'm to get your phone calls. On the other side of the break will talk Lebron will talk Tom Brady. You are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio you are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio radio public talk.

Call reported: now with 855-2124 CBS the media for the movement sure it goes on the college students are and I'm not talking to them. They are talking to me next week to Lane University, New Orleans, Louisiana. Looking forward to that. Had an amazing time last week. Looking forward to an amazing time next week 855-2124 CBS Thursday night football. We got a game going on his game socks. The Denver Broncos leading the Indianapolis Colts. 966. They are now in the fourth quarter a little more than 12 minutes left in the game map time USA the Russell Wilson was supposed to cook, but we'll talk about that later on in the show to open things up. We talked about Lebron James played a preseason game against the Phoenix Suns. He lost two guesses of preseason game and Lebron James made it very clear he wants to own a team in Las Vegas. Lebron James made it very clear to Adam's over. When a team comes the Vegas I want to be the guy thinks will take a little bit more than that, like dollars and cents. Why wouldn't the NBA want to keep Lebron James involved it's it's of their benefit to do so. 855-2124 CBS then E. Of course this man's name is Vinnie and he's calling from Vegas Vinnie Vegas, you are on CBS sports radio what's on your mind Vinnie Vegas.

They are not correctly my man, you are making my drive home so much better that boring game. I'll tell you what I'm sure your take on Lebron acting in Las Vegas I seen the growth okay Las Vegas eight the world championship I seen the golden night, not a game. It's in the event when you go to write when you go to a Raiders game that I mean it's just unbelievable and I come from back east or what go to Nick James Ranger game to go to Giants Stadium but out here. It's a whole different by land in a band like you said earlier 24 seven town cursor coming and going in Lebron absolutely bring that with his backers and other people.

I think it would be a absolute monster. I just want to get your take on that field I think so. Thank you Vinnie for: from Vegas.

It is not a coincidence by any stretch of the imagination, now the NFL lose is trying to march towards $20 billion in revenue. We see the aces there. We see the Golden Knights in the NHL. Vegas is the next one step people's thoughts and their processes on sports gambling. It is changed like it doesn't have the dirty connotation to it anymore.

The NBA is going to have a franchise in Vegas and so this is not Lebron James is speaking out of turn. We are ultimately going to see a sports franchise, representing the NBA in Vegas and why not have Lebron James involved. I say why the hell not the Knights of fat success. The raters of their income on the ravens will have success anywhere that they are and if we open up shop for the NBA all they'll have success as well Bob, it's called from Michigan.

You're the JR sport B shows up Bob. I am taking my call. I usually what's up.

I thought her concerned about about Lebron and ownership.

I guess I'm not completely sold on funk. I like the idea here is my reason why I'm not trying to convince Lebron, but here is the scenario Michael Jordan was employer.

He made his teammates better players.

He got them involved in making better players. It's never been about about Michael even wanted to know ownership of Charlotte, it's never been about Michael on the late Kobe Bryant after he retired. It was never about Colby. There was never about him. He did things for a lot of people to the basketball school and everything else in but would like only billable time. I'm sorry. I'm just feeling like that instrument still be all about Lebron and I don't think it Lebron sure I know in the rebounds while clearly admitted he made so good but but Michael and Colby made their teammates late and II think different of the ball going to be about Lebron. It was never like that with what global would likely Bryant Michael Jordan after they left I don't think that's going to be the case in retirement. Bob on I'm just being honest with whatever Lebron decides to call it quits, of which there doesn't seem to be in immediate need to do so's thinking about his his quality of play when he is done.

What else is there to do besides, at that point. Just make money if he's a part of the Vegas ownership group. He is just going to make money.

I don't think it's it's Lebron being selfish.

I think it's Lebron looking at the opportunity that's in front of him and just saying I am going to milk this until I cannot milk it anymore. I think you'll be okay. There might be a problem with Ron and compare her way. Kobe Bryant amendment and Michael Jordan conducting a call… Only both on the court but off the court as well be a pretty good first phone, but that Lebron still has overcome. No, I don't. The biggest thing and thank you Bob quality Michigan that that Lebron might have had to overcome was the issue of, you know, setting up that that press conference in Connecticut and saying I'm going down to Miami. The decision Lebron James is basically pretty as clear as you can. He's apologized for that.

Lebron James is come out and said all me doing the decision was not the smartest thing. And if anyone wants to take issue with Lebron James over the past year, two years and and in standing up for human rights and black rights in America than it I mean if you can understand or get with that, then you're just a jerk. I mean if you if you find the worst thing Lebron James is said to be all will China than than than you suck me that's just me being real.

This man has lived his entire life in the public viewpoint and not sure he's not going to say everything perfect. He's not going to be perfect because is no such thing as a perfect human being. But if you have to think about someone who came from absolutely nothing and now has everything the opportunity to own and NBA franchise Lebron James his life has been a storybook. And if you want to tell me the worst thing that he said his old China we we should get involved in China do better was the next thing, what would you have been involved with in Salt Lake, Lebron James whenever he owns and NBA franchise. I think he will be perfectly fine you think about the Hornets is sure you can think about Michael Jordan.

He's not the dominating factor of the team. You might have to get there which you don't go all men. Michael Jordan is ruining the squad. You don't good for Lebron James to be in this position. Lebron James was supposed to be absolutely nowhere that's outside of the world of basketball to look at what he has done as a human being. The expectations that he has exceeded as a human being absolutely ridiculous. The next phase of Lebron. I don't know winning a championship staying involved in business owning a franchise winning a championship. Could you imagine Lebron the owner winning a championship.

We would never hear the end of it.

No one would deserve it more.

He's come from absolutely nothing.

And he's done everything he's done up until this point to be a billionaire crazy is the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio.
