Eisen shows Ben Lyons in foraging and I would go to phone TJ Brockman still off in the woods looking for shots yesterday. Here is that I played with the same as all very solid. No track out of their home burned too many edges edges were burned.

That is for sure. First, sports memorabilia, you guys member come across in your own journey as a sports fan or something that you had that was really special member.

My dad and I had this glove that we got signed by everybody. So being the son of Jeffrey Lyons was a mix of baseball players and like really cool celebrities Wade Boggs signed the baseball glove and Hulk Hogan, weird that I am taught bending her 80s and now I was superintendent sports cards in the late 80s early 90s you know and you try to collect anything Michael Jordan that I could and I was big, a span we lived in Alaska at the time, so that was kind of the team that people cheered for along with Seattle so I can graffiti Junior and José Canseco like those were fair players when I was 10 years old so just anything like that, but I could get my hands on is that it think you imagine being 10 years old now and if you're a fan of Mike Trout. If you're a fan of Breanna Stewart or whoever your favorite player is not only can you get there cards but you can interact with them on social you can get a tweet from them freeing that printed out now. It is calamity only can you talk you to send a letter to some shady addresses don't know if it's real or not. Maybe two years later Mike Schmidt -like headshot comes back signed or something is not even wearing the Phillies gear exact nonofficial now.

There's so many great ways to connect with fellow fans and collectibles are are really no at the center of all of it and my friend Buster share host of the bus to show joining joining us in a few moments because he's a guy who knows the market value of all this stuff and called my dad found a newspaper we are going through stuff on a newspaper from the day after we walked on the moon as man walked on the moon 1969 we have the New York Times from the next day. I wonder if there's a market for that people love to look at this studio studio is a collectors dream. What's most random thing as I sit here and stare.

Obviously, TJ's got some gems over there. There's a story behind all TJ stuff, which at the bobble head of the Turner guys that took a deep cut that's a tough one to find what they sent us to 11 earlier you got me plugged in this region. I can just go get that bobble head. I got Peter Carlesimo left laughably Brockman policing I see was that mean might see my desk. I was on my Republic we have Peter Carlesimo there's been Scully up there collection of promotional fleeces from his work. That is exactly what I asked Buster we get a mind like a Buster how much is in 1998 Tostitos I find a place with no super random of your fan occur. Be enthusiastic or enthusiasm you know that Larry opened up a spite store latte. Larry's got have us from latte. Larry's great lifestyle and how much is that worth probably eight dollars. Well, there's a super fan of curb your enthusiasm, who lives in Belgium and needs to collect every single artifact from the show we will pay $8000 fine.

Larry David came in last we got JK Simmons to verify so no way that Larry hello I love that so joining the show right now man knows all things. Collectibles Buster share joining the show right now the Mercedes-Benz vans phone line Buster thanks so much to ferment sometime when you start to really dive deep into the collectibles game up and grab me got into the collectibles game very early on your export then when I start getting into the real fun during I feel like you dive deeper than just sports we say the real fun stuff you now unlocked like a completely different box yet how I define real fun for young quality at the everything from signatures and documents from president, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, in particular dinosaur from 100 million years plus you take one photo that the Titanic be constructed, constructed thing that could actually be in a museum. I'm real fun stuff Buster wish you could have seen the look on Brockman's face when he said museum quality assets and he just is at all okay this is seriously going to the next level here… It well when it comes to this fun stuff what some of the fun stuff you crossed passwords in the world of sports collectibles, next level you headlined the card so they want to going national treasures. Local man that had fun story behind it about how the person who originally brought it.

It had been on the card they pay a couple thousand dollars and they returned it for $3000 that they paid that card recently sold for a few million, but they returned it because it had a small pain which become one of one long term didn't end up affecting the value. Note in in the sports world.

I think tickets are fun especially to know game is where people wouldn't have kept them the letter they Michael Jordan hit the game-winner at an opposing arena.

Everybody would've grown their tickets away because they didn't. They were happy that the gold one day they were pitstop… Therefore, the populations of those sorts of ticket are superlow stories that really really got me got a lot of us to share. Joining the showhouse of the Buster shell deadlines insert rich on the rich eyes and show we were talking about Tiger Woods walking off of the 18th hole at St. Andrews this morning and he saying goodbye to the fans in his hat is in his hand and am thinking I wonder what Buster would pay for that hat you look at sports. Now do you look at moments you mentioned Jason Tatum scoring the final basket again one this year in the first round of the playoffs.

How much his jersey worth are you looking at sports through that lens that you are now impossible to turn that brain off. Once you see it every NBA game played. I'm friendly with the guys who are who have the option partnership with the NBA most of the jury go directly to them.

Then get auctioned off. Players are even really that keep their charity. For the most part so you know what I'm watching an NBA game like okay you hundred thousand dollars every quarter. Even regular-season game people willing to pay every caregiver ground on six figures automatically.

You know that sort of stuff in his crazy and then would get the big moment. I mean the ancillary stuff is it crazy really and deadlines on for rich on the rich eyes and show Buster. I came across 460 José Canseco cards last weekend when I do with this €100 they can think of hard probably not much, probably not worth getting graded so I would just look at them and then be happy is in the Navy filled him with a lot but generally speaking, you don't want to waste your time and money on on 30 years as a doesn't just go on Twitter and say that I'll be a local car wash and I'll have them for sale so that someone with CJ do some of the stuff that he has. That's not for sale but if you name your price is right. I do have a question something that just kind of popped in my head. It's not a sports memorabilia, but it's is a question let's just say you have a really famous actress right and you happen to catch her garter belt and a wedding what that gardener just now popped in my head that I have the difficult day depends who it is and if there's anything else you compare it to. So do they have all their you know it Lafayette that are there significant movie prop the headset record right where you could draw the sword in the comparison on the name to all who aren't in support or you know don't have the crops and things out there are very hard to write your signature is a public yet low hanging fruit everything to do but something like that all gonna come down to whether you can you can comp it to anything and whether you can prove that it is what you think that there's video proof you can photo match. It there so many things that would go into it.

If you were to try to auction that, in theory, Buster questions for you. I'm about 500 concert tickets from the 70s like late 70s early, right yeah I got Klonopin like I'm talking like great like some live a like big events going all through the 80s and early 90s worth anything over the big name that you saw the name is. That's why my literally everybody. Some like big ones you want. Like Pearl Jam, early 90s like unplugged Nirvana that gold right there. Basically people ticket market is up frequently in the last two years so I would pick out the big one. Look for comps and options in eBay there none exist mean that it even better for you. But if they do that you get a rough idea of what they're worth and the big ones you sent to yet they get graded on men likely if you wanted to sell them an option, but that that's real money.

Cool.

Yeah this lady is now Chris is Sylvia Buster I was in the pandemic, helped bring all this back we saw the huge uptick in in sports cards and everyone you know going on Instagram and breaks and all that fun stuff like this. He can gold and some of these other guys. Everyone was chasing the Lebron triple logo man this past year until it finally got nailed what you think the sustainability of all of this is a we going to see some type of bubble burst like were sitting with crypto this year or oh just long term it for us.

If you could yeah you playing out obviously there's an inevitable correction by think we've Artie seen a lot of that, similar to how you came in pretty much every market around the world, but the thing is when you look at what people under 30 want it.

The thing that you know are from their child.

That is why Pokémon has hit the resurgence in the last couple years, and not in 2005 because the kids that were collecting in 1999 now have a little bit of money so you know I think that is sort of the way that I see it playing out over and over and over for every major category. Every major franchise and the things that people want, you know, the deeds have been proven as real. At that that have historical track record, especially for the big name industries.

I think long-term. That interest is not going to get peer, not in the mud and the giant brown know the power of nostalgia is incredible and Buster share joining the showhouse of the bus or show sports collectible experts than lines and for rich on the rich eyes and show the power of nostalgia to really draw consumer spending and to really inspire people to want to go out and build community around the things that they mean something to them is is unmatched to make everyone in the room feel really old Buster go down memory lane. What were the things I watched as a kid growing up that made you that what I will make you nostalgic to want to collect their items as you get older terrible yeah yeah obviously Derek Jeter that but only became Yankee that in 2009 because I was nine. Fortunately out the good year but you know Carmelo Anthony on the neck. I don't have that many good teams to lean on you know, I became a giant fan a little bit after they were laughing but it the superstars of the leak that I watched though it still Lebron will let Kobe and you know it is funny now because the way that certain characters from the path become so much bigger than life how like documentaries like the last dance totally revitalized the Michael Jordan collectibility to a generation that never saw play. I'm interested to see how that plays out in 20 years for people who never saw you know Lebron James play and the running game documentary comes out and how that affects thing to think that I'm about to look for Neil. It's always been here 14 Buster was next. Like us, we can get our pans and write this down so we can come to get ahead of the curve and set up our portfolios here in the coming years like that the thing that I believe in most the only thing that I can tell you for fact is good it museum quality at that could be in the museum.

Private museums will pay 3 to 6%.

At that value to hold it in their facilities on and protect it on the annual basis think that you think you know Triceratops skeleton you think Babe Ruth game orange or the top percent of the percent.

Everything else is on methodology. I would go for rare stuff that you know what you're into, but collecting at the end of day to be out about funding, passion, and no building something that makes you happy and probably make other people happy and you prefer something tangible, something physical or you what you think about the NFT market yet, so I actually said this earlier to somebody. I prefer the NFT market day worded. I think monthly volume it down over 70%.

I preferred today than what it was that it peaked because it had a lot down. Per transaction is incredibly high price. Everything was incredibly high whereas now it's a lot easier to sort tell the long run, so I prefer digital collectible today than a year ago.

In general, I think that there for the most part apply to the collectible copy Buster share joining the show museum quality assets like that to be on the phone with a rock 'n' roll Hall of Fame is done with the southwesterly is this one museum quality assets you are in my office in New York, I saw you eyeing that Carmelo Anthony water bottle asking for the Lakers bench this year.

I'm watching that for you to prove that it not for sale by search prices. Thanks so much for joining the show body love it love it. What an interesting way to read it sports when you and I are watching games another thing about their legacy what it means by teams winning the championship he's looking at it saying I wonder how much of sneakers and myself. It's also super funny. Like when your kid, you kind of jokingly would tell your parents. Mom went we gotta do this like someday it's going to be worth a lot of money now and MJ is a day memorizing every day is not a day every day is what some day. Some days today. Got stuff and Buster got big show, be Alexi Brown from the Sparks: in around 11 o'clock. You're on the West Coast. We got our buddy Stephen Bishop on the great golfers in Hollywood play David Justice and Moneyball to be hanging out here in studio with us. Plus our top 10 NFL teams.

We got TJ's goats got Tiger Woods weeping the big show on a Friday penalizing for rich the rich eyes and show every golf equipment company claims to be longer off the tee box Callaway Callaway's new rogue ST driver is the only one built to completely vomit.

It's been speed soon to be Callaway's fastest, most stable driver ever. Every rogue ST is engineered with the new tungsten speed cartridge which gives you more speed on off-center hits and provides more forgiveness thanks to high am alive. That's just the beginning guys because Callaway is engineered a rogue ST for every player. Most golfers will fit into the max because of its incredible combination of distance and forgiveness. But there's also max D there dedicated draw model for players who need more shot shape correction. Now if you need something more low spin.

There's max OS which gives you stronger trajectory with a more neutral ball flight but for the true players out there. The real Jesus rogue ST triple diamond, L addresses the compact low spin head that the tour players love Callaway has thought through every aspect of speeds. All you have to do is go to rogue.

Find your rogue stdriver@callawaygolf.com/go road and lines and for rich. This is the rich eyes and show love it I love it headlines infrared On the rich eyes and show going through the archives of this incredible incredible multiplatform brand. I love watching the old interviews that really old interview has to be one of the top five on top five moments mobilizing something on the shore for a show for sure we never actually sat down and got to come up with a list every time so I would. Satan listens back know what I mean yeah you to me when every time someone comes in and it's kind of an epic interviewee, look at each other and was like filling out an interview and then we go back and we think about all the people we got on in the moments in something like that with Ray Leota RIP. It's like that was a really top-five moment of the GLA Leota within actually I was posterior Goodfellas that is a great one last thing that Rich bought a charity is that it turns out that's probably all think like Martin Scorsese might be the only real signature on the baby will speak in a list where I can make a list of the shows greatest interviews, we do have our list of the top 10 NFL teams heading into the 2022 season when you hear those bells ring. You know it's only one thing is time for football tickets or top 10 start with my list because I have the best lists all week long, so let's put it up on the screen shower yet know TJ dollars cowboy very good friends.

In this last year or so and I didn't want to deal with another year of him cowboy is itself. Cowboys are firmly there are number 10. I like the addition of Russell Wilson in Denver. I think a little bit of a Super Bowl hangover for the Bengals. Not like when Carolina missed the playoffs out right.

I still think he'll be good which is not as good because the Baltimore Ravens will be much better. That team was decimated by injuries last year and was amongst the best teams in the AFC until that happened. I think a healthy ravens team have been back in the top 10. Who knows where Rogers is on the footfall to the charges of the second best team in their own medium can go against TB 12 that she saw it was when man AFC title game Super Bowl Super Bowl AFC title game homes. The boys run it back in the best two teams in the NFL. I think your Super Bowl bills and rounds. Of course that I like doing the ball here in Los Angeles, not Vegas that's my thoughts and go for you to I know I've been annexed to France as everyone seems to like there was a sweet man, not John's. My number 10 quarterbacks and last year everybody thought about that.

I don't have a mic in the back. Loved it because it didn't go so well but guess what made the playoffs last year. And guess what they got better with the number 10. I like Dallas and not to win the NFC East. Despite what Rich thinks about the Philadelphia Eagles. I agree with you been a healthy Baltimore Ravens team as a top 10 team and Lamar Jackson will be a top-five MVP candidate just went with all the left knee while all in there. I think they're all really good, five, six, seven, take your pick. I think the cheese take a step back. I think the Raiders and Chargers are little bit better.

I know see how it plays out as a vision football team that made the Superboy like the number four because are not as good as the court of the teams ahead of them to still as Tom Brady Bill saw Josh Allen in the ribs on the Super Bowl I think you brought in some respect. We got there now. July 15 making these is all something we don't know anything because it's July 15 and I want no problems from you people. I got a whole football season I got listen to the mouth breeders yapping when the proms will enjoy my summer number 10. Just one piece of you out there put the list of Hoskins and can't believe that I hate like I'm going to be objective. Watching this team really improved man. They had a great great draft adding Ajay Brown. I'm little bit worried about this team and people around the white win situation. Just when you do mostly. The next budget jump on with Rich on the go with the Raiders. You know I do like the readers do not have a really good season this year charges and eight ravens. I have number seven.

I think Lamar Jackson is going to show improved this year.

I just really just get feeling about a player and team billing about Lamar coming at number six.

No lash of the great season, but also very hard to go back to the simple so they have somewhere in our six disrespected all they had a glaring weakness. As Tristan on the offense of line greeting which is very hard to go back to suitable even at that number six is good. Number five Green Bay Packers Erin Rogers.

I keep saying this about him the right guy makes passes it. I've really never seen another quarterback made losing Adams, it seems billing the be all right by the Chiefs for the Rams three again very hard to repeat Rams are great and that's a great football team and he put some holes Buffalo Bills in the box. The rounding out my number one vein, it's Tom Brady right in on Tom Brady more than you bet against him.

I don't know percentagewise that you make some way out sound docs right now is of 15 July sitting here in shock that Brockman and I had the Cowboys on our list sees it and have a Cowboys try to like raisins, and enjoy my summer man embraced the villain role. Guess what Chris football started yet football starts instantly know the boys will be in your summer. I don't want no problems reaching out your family. We can reconvene in September and that's when the smoke that's when the smoke is why there are top 10 list. We put all three upon the.tv there have been technology the Packers on my way yeah I know Packers are they going to come out of the worst division of NFC.

I don't now. I mean, they lost a lot offense anywhere. Rogers is great. Just want to see improvement. Obviously you have the patriots in there and I think it's important to believe in your team may need your support they need your help. They need your your energy positive energy.

But what is it about the patriots in the roster this year to some of the nerdy exes and knows that has you excited for the thought is the bill that I miss something spellcheck retired you still on the team builder totaled all checks out there you drop his son Tony were good thoughts and scenic about Texaco's okay. My analysis I Brockman gets the big guys were about 10 minutes away from CJ's tigers weeping over at St. Andrews emotional scene. There cam Smith to Huey Eagle 14 imparted and he's three shots ahead 13 under after posting a 64. Roy McElroy is surging. He is three under on the day. At 12 he sits at -91 shot back cam he's been taking some aggressive cuts as of late. I will reason striking the ball really taken on the role as leader of the PGA Tour as well. I think that sort of adds to the confidence acid offense again will trim you know I was listening to on my Trico was on the milling up guys yesterday after they were, recapping round one and he thinks Rory taking this leadership role in speaking out against live in the responsibility of these players to stay on the predictive to help his golf game and it's hard to think otherwise. If you've watched Roy play the last couple months confidence. It means so much in life and golfing and everything. Yesterday I hadn't had lunch because I did the show and so I went and I had a hot dog before the round give me confidence out there. As I went about my 18 tall boy, to which I know were there was no cart situation on the back nine rustic and I could use the lubrication can finish the stumps. I would love to see others always talks about his new golf tournaments and how we can reinvent golf. I would love to see the best players in the world play like we play like eat a hot dog drink. A tall boy and then go out there.

15. Hello, you have that does of the heartburn on the sixpack that you may actually do this is not hell out there wanting to carry Gopi in the words lightweight for the group in front of you. 10 shots the whole experience that would be incredible agenda is to miss the cut he was playing really well, but he finished +3 cuts. Can anybody even par guys so can't wait for the weekend at the openings can be awesome. DeAndre Aiden staying in Phoenix for now what is that mean for the Kevin Durand trade. What is that mean for the son's chances in the Western Conference will basketball talk next because TJ's breaking down his all time goes the greatest players in the history of each NBA franchise. Cindy you left to do the Tina plays the world most famous arena that is this today's that's, I have enough time or were not up against it. CJ's goes the NBA. When we come back in lines and for Rich. This is the rich eyes and show welcome back to the children line for Rich think you are watching and listening all week long that it a few times. I generally do feel like I've won some type of contest I got to host a sports doctor for week. This is amazing. Thank you for being a part of it. This date in history, 1988.

Diehard was released in theaters and I've always said in the great debate is diehard a Christmas movie or not, that no it was not a Christmas movie until I watch that soundbite from the rich eyes and show of Jake Tapper breaking down, why diehard is a Christmas movie and I think I flipped I think I flip-flopped. I think that hard to Christmas all the correct side of the thank you very much Jake Tapper. I appreciate the breakdown that was your dad think about that not only by entities is it is not debates. I don't think my dad has given any thought to the idea is diehard. I like TJ. Our favorite bit face time your dad right now. Let's ask diehard overhead is busy base that is doubly knows how to use FaceTime at least tax that would be like hey you, I would value your father's opinion, I would answer any of the other people Tapper had an open and shut case noted my you and Rich need not take the L were not.

It's not.

It's a Christmas background Christmas is that a technical term happened. The building dies of the king does not make you redemption Christmas movies and I can't did not die in Christmas movies don't die, but that movies about terrorists taking over not only plasma like Century City and its attendant piece about a man finding redemption and earning back his family got the big I can't do face time on the phone. I doubt you're on the rich eyes and show right now. Say hi to the guys I got the battle. I know I will call the outline be doing all three on announcing the public access show guy calling bullets to CJ's goats. My dad things diehard to Christmas get on the phone number on the TJ's going to break down the best players in history of each NBA franchise division.

Do we have today will I figured I would say this because all of us, our favorite teams are in the planning, so that's the division I figured I'd save today Friday that's looking at the Boston Celtics, the Brooklyn Nets the New York knickerbockers Philadelphia 76ers and the Toronto Raptors is jumping that is who I feel are the greatest of all time goats for each of these franchises to start with the raptors. This was surprisingly tough guys that you know that my first thought goes the Vince Carter writing was like the first star that the raptors had in the beginning when they were just, you know, new franchising, Vince was really great. Really exciting. Your said Chris bosh was a perennial All-Star.

You know better power forwards in the game and then he kinda sacrificed his own individual success for team success.

When he went inside with my boss was guys average like 25 game kinda went to Miami reinvent himself, but he didn't win in Toronto. Basically what this boils down to is why Kyle Lowery right because I was only very here. I can't make him the greatest raptor even though much like a scene with the rank of a broad expense any time on your franchise has to be considered. So because of all that go with Kyle Lowery as the greatest Toronto raptor of all time.

You know, in addition to being like these nerd stats.

I don't really know that well like he's no time leader when shares and blah blah blah. But like heart and soul of the most successful era in late them to an NBA championship. So I figured he was the right.

I think he is that correct.

I had 00 stating they won the championship rose and that they had also updated more success with Vince Carter as a team. Maybe then it's the Linscott of insanity years that will be immortalized on CJ's list me know about admiring until you big boy called Calderon dancers quite letter greatest raptor ever went to Chandon just a single season. It makes you the best. So then Lebron James would be the best Miami Heat player of all time by your philosophy will then criticize doing weights on the team and had all the other history that went along with Kyle LaRussa on the team and all the other chip because of the changes Lebron James disagree.

I got to sit Lowery go with C-14/Cisco within minutes. Okay, this is interesting guys because I'm seeing the next a lot of ABA success to finals and as an NBA franchise. You know rich history really came down to guys okay Jason Kidd indicated on the Julius the doctor as you guys know I'm a huge Dr. Jay fan. I really didn't want to do this but when you really just compare the stats of what they did you know Dr. Jay to time ABA champion to come ABA playoffs and three-time ABA MVP.

One of the most influential and greatest basketball players of all time. So because of that, even though we only spent three years there. That was my minimum five Julius Irving is the greatest player in the franchise of the new Jersey/Brooklyn Nets.

I like it. I wish the current Brooklyn Nets group would do more to honor the fact that the team existed before where Brooklyn and Jay-Z song is a nightclub with the lights turned on.

Let's be honest, so I would. I wish we would they would do more to honor the previous you know incarnation of the franchise.

That said, Jason should really transcend my culture and the energy around that seem the bowels of the NBA for a long time into that incident to finals and I had a land I just looked at the stats it looked with Dr. Jay man, even though was ABA before NBA.

I just what he did was so incredible. It was unlocking to knock any basketball listed as Dr. Jay is going on today. By the way.Brooklyn Nets free marketing idea you want to just take it on any credit Terry Kittle sock night going about one sake save half of what I said let's move over to Chris Broughton's Boston Celtics.

I could go on for a long time. With the amount of great players playing for the Celtics. Obviously, after kinda weighing everything up nicely come out on their Larry for now, save this little bird – battered guy labors Abascal player obviously more skilled than Bill Russell all over but the fact that Bill Russell 11 titles maybe the greatest winner in all of sports.

I couldn't ever go back into an NBA arena. If I said that Bill Russell wasn't the greatest Boston Celtics about time and it was fairly easy to come to that assessment. With all due respect to Larry Bird was incredible.

Look at the Celtics and their all-time greats compared to the Lakers all time greats do have more guys to certain body. That's the mentality I think when you look at the Celtics individual superstars that were the great Laker players that are become icons of the school. Also, when I think about you to compare the Lakers the Celtics a lot of all-time Laker greats were originally Lakers they started with other teams when you talk about Kareem and will shack and shack Ron that all-time great Laker want to championship multiple All-Star games sure we mile the Celtics all their guys were homegrown. They were drafted they were.

They grew up there come of age there and then eventually want to championship there.

So when you look at those two franchises. That's one of the major differences that sticks out for me is also pursuing yesterday on Twitter brought up the fact that you hate Lebron. You said you didn't like the last couple things you said about Lebron. I would mix mainly to the fact that maybe you don't like Lebron have what I said Chris is not a fan of this current chapter in the Lebron nonviolently, kindly, as they say over and over and greatest.

You have just like the heat with one with didn't need him to win those two titles. I love when these guys have a conversation with each other and they both look at me in conversation I count like let you have the floor in the center make this decision basically came down to really look at numbers in the history kingdom three guys Willis Reed while Clyde Frazier and Patrick Ewing, and even though Ewing never won a championship existed in the age of Michael Jordan's. I think everyone kinda gets a pass. I got to go with Patrick. He is the greatest choice there TJ and him reader Frazier I thought were worth the final three, but I went with Pat, but again he has a mix fan, I will defer not to say Ewing is the greatest next player of my lifetime as a fan I was in the building the night they were tired his jersey. I'm a huge Patrick Ewing fan.

I think one of the most underappreciated superstars of the 90 and when you look back to the history of the New York Knicks in the two championships while Clyde Frazier's in the face of the franchises he arrived in New York in 1967 continuing to do play-by-play for the team. His stat line in game seven. When they didn't have Willis Reed against a Lakers team led by Wilt Jerry Weston Elgin Baylor. The fact goes for 36 1975 the wall, Clyde Frazier and then welcoming in Earl the Pearl and playing alongside Earl Munro to get that second title high goes. While Clyde Frazier did have the privilege of seeing him play but I do have the honor and privilege of listening to him call again swishing. In addition, the Nixon transition. It is a real joy to watch him call games and while Clyde Frazier the greatest neck of all time.

Yeah you know what I listening your argument there like a city that was really those two I went with Ewing but now, after you said that I yeah man maybe should've put Clyde will now by Brockman's philosophy or his reasoning should be the player who achieve the highest level of basketball while while they wore the jersey so by Brockman's rules.

Jeremy Lynn is the greatest time because for a moment in time. There were two weeks when Jeremy when was the greatest basketball player to ever basket it was really ridiculous.

As illustrated this week so I don't think another athlete has ever done. Michael Jordan, whatever is ever done that you hear me Jeremy Lynn did have a moment in time, as so many guys presently in on that list back to back SI titles are Johnny Vanda Mears back to back no-hitter like I think Jeremy Lynn back to back SI covers a man who was sleeping on Landry feels his couch. He was even sleeping on Carmelo's sectional. This is a single Landry field letter which builds on the 10 days he did me know if that was shinning from Jerry Jeffries on that team, Jerry Jeffries, an adult with braces. So let's wrap this up with my favorite. I chides the Philadelphia 76ers again. Very tough.

A lot of great players on the history of the Sixers. You know how Greer you know the great Wilt Chamberlain playing for three seasons Bobby Jones Billy Cunningham Moses Malone Darrell Dawkins Alan I and Charles Barkley. I could go on and on. This is the only player as of right now who is pulling double duty greatest Philadelphia 76ers all-time watches over me every show. The next Julius Dr. Irving and again I didn't want to have to use them for the next. But looking at early I was like I really wanted to know I was good to get some backlash.

I really want to do.

Jason Kidd, but you can't ignore what the men did with the net so because of that, the doctor, I'm not apologizing for the Sixers. No light at like a virus and got one. Maybe you could make a case didn't so it's a different timeline from Gwyneth Paltrow sliding doors by Dr. J the greatest six are all time and unfortunately doesn't get talked about when we have these greatest players of all time conversations I see them oftentimes left off.

People stopped and found what he did for the game globally and what he did six of every man for them. Yeah, I mean he's Julius the doctor with CJ. I love it stuff to the other stewing over your agreement with the bill Russell I'm taking it right most likely aiming on you when you wait when you have the NBA finals MVP is named after you than your your your one of the all-time greatest Dr. J only played three years for the New Jersey Nets.

I take offense to that. But whatever is your fair Pirates August we switch gears from the NBA to the WNBA coming up next Lexi Brown to check-in. Plus I think will check my dad down to settle this diehard babies on our will get like that when he comes back all right we are back on. So you might steer an article I think so much for checking in.

How are you sorry about that before his diehard a Christmas movie yeah I think so why not I will yeah what you remember about diehard demos on Sunday so diehard. I remember thing to see movies multiple times because you're off seeing the next movie. So you remember that I favorite a lot, but I like don't work very well. You PIO Calle I got into a script or something like that. The Red Sox that try not to. They need a person who can hit more than 205 and more than five home runs and strikes out a lot and and then they need a backup for space with the same that backup catcher candidate they need another bat they needed so many things but Chris Sayles has come back to Nathan of all these companies coming back is particular this weekend so will say I mean I'm not paying attention to the Yankees have given up winning the division but doesn't matter anymore, so long as you make the playoffs, but I'm concerned that misaligned shorebirds would not recite separate movements aligned to the very next my mother Jeffries letting sure, but I'll repeat thanks Warburg was the stupidest thing ever thinking about that, but he's not a good first base. Not perfect by trade and you have any rank of first and they'd at least all back is better defensively, but I every armor on it and even All-Star I felt I had the same thought that's what we're doing earlier on the show this week was we were talking about the greatest games we've ever been to. I remember we got to go over to London to see those two Red Sox Yankee games a few summers ago. It's the greatest game you've ever been to. While I was there 5 feet away when Don Zimmer tackled went after and I like that and I lie with her, I was 15 feet away my thoughts with greatness. When Jason Varitek gave a leather sandwich through a rod that was pretty cool to their I sometimes use the guest post on the Spanish brought speak Spanish and I was there when Aaron Boone hit the homerun ensues when you come watch me play basketball.

I'll love you forever. Dad, thanks so much. Talk to you later Mike and in half an hour.
