Pardon the Interruption | I can’t take Lakers seriously- Wilbon on Kings get the season sweep vs. AD

But I’m Mike wilbon Frank the Penguins announced that a shipment of yamir yogger bobbleheads has been stolen ahead of tonight’s game I’m Frank Isola you want one I got about 18,000 of them and a truck parked right around the street you know I don’t know that I need a yamir

Yogger bobblehead I I don’t know that that you know true story my friend has his bed he was moving at his apartment in New Jersey and he gave my friend his bed big beautiful bed how about that forget the bobblehead I’ll take the bed that’s pretty good pretty good

Story welcome to PTI Tony couldn’t be Bob to be here so to handle his workload today is our great friend Mr Frank Isola no cheering wow okay it’s going to be like that huh let’s start with March Madness traditional power Kansas lost to Cincinnati by 20 la last night in the

Big 12 tournament and while the j-hawks were without their two leading scores we’re used to seeing them own their conference Jay Wright tells USA Today that he thinks the era of Blue Bloods is ending because really good players can transfer anywhere to program so they can play right away Frank are you with

Them by the way Kansas their last two games they lost by 50 not the right way to go into selection Sunday so if you all right so who we talking about Kansas Kentucky Duke North Carolina will throw Yukon in since they won the National Championship they’re the defending they

Won enough so of those schools they’re all in the top 25 and they’ve won 13 of the last 23 national championships and then if you want to throw in Jay R and Villanova that’s more champ so I’m not I’m not buying it because guess what the best players are still going to those

Schools I get it you might have a disgruntled player that transfers out but these programs also get players that transfer in people still want to be part of that Legacy part of the program I’m not buying it at all and Yukon right now is the favorite to win the national

Championship so I disagree with Jay wght on this one Frank but but I think there’s context to this and I’ve talked to Jay about this before I agree with him because while you have those schools each can still pop up and threaten to win a National Championship or win you

Know we’ve seen that you know with Yukon and Villanova we we’ve seen that in terms of all of them dominating the conversation and landscape and recruiting no no they’re not they’re not going to do that and they have very down years now which wasn’t the case before

So I’m not saying all those programs are going to go away I’m not saying the Blue Bloods are going to be extinct and I don’t think Jay wri S suggesting that either I know he’s not but Frank players now kids now they want to transfer out

Of their home room if it didn’t go well two days in a row in math class they want to go to the portal and they want to get the so the the culture now just says bail bail on whatever it is cu you can get a better deal across the street

The Grass Is Always Greener that’s where we are in these times and recruits and so I think that Jay’s on to something here and by the way this particular tournament is going to tell us that Frank is why the product is so not enticing women’s basketball is so much

More exciting and so much more attractive and appealing cuz people stay for four years I know they got transfer portal too but they don’t bail every single day like the men do because they all think they’re going to the league even though they’re not and everybody

Can play a little bit they all can play that wasn’t the case 30 years ago but I get it you know we get Butler going to the back-to-back National Championship games they lost both of them you know we’ve seen VCU George Mason in the final

Four of the last 20 years you know just last season you had San Diego State make it Florida Atlantic Miami but it was still Yukon winning here’s my only thing Mike the top recruits still want to be associated with the big program so Co flag who’s the number one recruit in the

Country he had it down to Yukon and Duke and what happens all the big name you know alums from duke that are all in the NBA are calling the kid up he goes there so those schills are still going to get the players I know it’s hard to win with

A lot of one and DS but all these coaches would still rather take the talent get the team together in August and make a run for it in March and then into April I’ll give you that I’ll grant you that all right let’s move to baseball where the white socks sent Ace

Dylan CE to the Padres for a couple of prospects CE joins the San Diego staff that it already includes you darish and Joe Musgrove after last season flame out Padre’s GM AJ PR said see you to a bunch of stars that includes Blake Snell and

Juan stto but PR says the Padres have a chance to win is he right that his Squad can contend Mike I mean they may be able to contend we’ll see but it’s not because they got Dylan CE Dylan CE is a nice pitcher he’s a guy he’s a nice

Pitcher two years ago I think he was was what runner up for sa young but then last year he was like seven and N with a 458 and that that come on now let’s not confuse him with Sandy kofax so let’s not get crazy which of course every deal

Now requires people to get nuts and make stupid proclamations Dylan CE could even have a bounceback GE I mean let’s say he’s a 12 and seven guy as a starter for that staff that doesn’t vult them past necessarily the Dodgers or even Arizona in their own division or who might pop

Up so let’s not get crazy the white socks had plenty of underachieving and CE was part of that too all right to your point the numbers 14 and8 2.20 erra the year that he finished second in the Sai Young last year he has a down year

But remember you go to San Diego they got a better lineup they feel they catch they throw the ball better than the white socks do and here’s the thing about the Padres to keep in mind last season 9 and 23 in one-run games they were 2 and 12 in extra Extra Inning

Games that that’s just being a bit unlucky and I think they made the right move here you get rid of Blake Snell you need pitching and when you’re contending with the Diamondbacks think about what they did last season and then the Dodgers are always the Dodgers it’s not

Just about having a big lineup you know they shed over $1 million off that payroll I mean think about the money that they spent Mike and you have an expanded postseason and they didn’t even make the playoffs last year so you know they they do it up in the Bronx all the

Time they think we’re going to out hit everybody all year long it’s not about that all the time you need pitching and I think it’s worth taking a chance on Dylan C I’m not saying I’m not saying it’s not worth taking a chance Frank I’m just saying let’s not get carried away

And make them the you know the the a favor to make the playoffs because they got Dylan CE expanded playoffs they couldn’t make it last year with the $800 million payroll yeah I I but I do think he’ll help all right let’s stick with baseball and the state of starting

Pitching just isn’t what it used to be while Justin berland needs 43 wins to reach the magic number of 300 Clayton Kershaw may be the last pitcher to reach even 200 as the warmonger points out on Twitter the active leader in wins for players under 30 is Jose BOS with just

83 gar Cole does have 145 but he’s 33 years old and right now he’s injured Mike is it reasonable to wonder if the days of 200 gamewinners are gone yes yes starting pitching is extinct I mean that you know it’s gone it’s done the way I

Knew it the way way some of us of a certain age grew up with it and one of the things I like Theo Epstein we had as a guest last year more than once and we he talked about starting pitching in addition to all the things that Theo

Helped install to get pace of game one of the things he all want also wanted to see and he gave voice to this was starting pitching like let it matter Bullpen days in the postseason that’s garbage and so yeah I grew up with my hero being Ferguson Jenkins you now

Forget 300 forget 200 you can’t even get five complete games out of a guy in the season when starting pitchers used to give you maybe 30 plus the top pitchers so I hate it Frank I hate that baseball’s done this think about this Mike the last 300 game winner was Randy

Johnson and he did that back in 2009 essentially a whole generation of pitchers have come and gone and nobody’s gotten to 300 now we just worried about 200 and think about this Madison Bumgarner who was an all-time legendary postseason pitcher only has 100 34 Aaron

Nola is less than 100 Jacob deg Grom who was a dominant pitcher for a few years is in the 80s in terms of wins but you’re 100% right you know the pitchers don’t even pitch enough Innings anymore but I also think you know a lot of This

Falls on you know these the front office the pitching coaches they talk so much now it’s not even about the pitch count it’s about spin rate they have these guys throwing the ball so hard that that’s why they’re keeping them out and only pitching them three four five

Innings it’s going to be hard to do 200 will be that number but you talk about being of a certain age I’m a lot closer to you than you think it was 500 home runs 3,000 hits and then 300 wins we we’re probably not going to see it’ll

Probably happen but it’s not going to be very often we see a guy even get to 200 it’s a little hard to believe get the two unbelievable the people that you named they not even close it’s it’s to me I I I don’t know it’s it’s part of

Baseball’s problem most people will tell you they don’t have one I’m not agreeing with that and now to the NFL ongoing search for a solution to the onside kickoff safety measures in recent years have all but eliminated successful onside kicks this has led to proposals to replace the on-site kick attempt with

A fourth and 15 play from one’s own 20 but those proposals have all stalled and now in an effort to win more votes the Eagles are proposing a fourth and 20 play that a team can use up to twice per game only when trailing Frank could you see this wrinkle getting votes getting

Support we we know that they they basically got rid of the onside kick as you mentioned because of a it’s essentially a safety issue so it’s it’s it’s basically gone at this point in fact only 3% of them were successful last season but you know what was

Successful 14% of plays fourth of 15 and longer worked so guess what and I’ll give you an example and I know you’re not going to like this because it’s the NFL and what it’s a gimmick and the whole thing but come on Mike go to the NFC championship game just a couple of

Months ago when Detroit got the ball back I mean they had to kick off an onside kick there was no chance it was going to be recovered wouldn’t it been a little bit more exciting if they had a chance on a fourth and 20 to give themselves a chance to win the game

That’s more exciting an onside kick that mic is never going to work I actually like what the Eagles are proposing here Frank I I I I I understand the need to try to come to something to inject more excitement late in the games if you’re down you want people still watching you

On teams and figure they have a chance but Frank aren’t you are you a shootout guy do you like PKS is what they’re called internationally in America they’ve been called Shoot you hate that right yep yeah this is what that is Frank it’s the NFL’s gimmick it’s the

NFL’s form of that let’s inject some excitement we don’t have because we got rid of something else I’m not going to sit here and say you shouldn’t try to have a safer game and eliminate concussions and that’s why the onside kick is g i get it but don’t give me

What your solution what would you do I don’t know I don’t know but this is artificial random garbage and come call it what it is come on now go back to the drawing made the N championship game even better than me we’re taking a break coming up Daniel

Gafford is creeping up on one of wilt’s Records what’s The it’s time to school filling Franken filling the the blank what’s first Daniel gafford’s streak of 33 straight field goals without a Miss is blank well Frank first of all it’s impressive I mean to go that long with a streak with not missing even if you’re just taking three-foot shots and that’s

What he’s doing he’s taking threefoot shots he’s dunking about he’s getting L passes he’s getting set up and Gafford the Bulls never should have let Gafford go Gafford has some there there there’s an upside there now the word however is wilsh and any form of that you can have

You can have Wilt like Wilt tonomous you anything with wilt because Wilt has the record gafford’s within three of it now Wilt did go 11 for 11 and 18 for 18 in successive games and 11411 came against zelmo BTY among others so look there’s Wilt there’s gresky there’s Ruth that

That’s the list in terms of Records in the various Sports everybody else could take a step back and if you want to add Jim Brown but it wasn’t number to Jim Brown in pro football but wilsh is the word you sound like Sunny Hill talking about Will Chamberlain I’m going to go

With Assisted Living last night he was five for five Kyrie and Luca donic assisted on all those baskets by the way 17 of the 33 Mike are dunks not everyone has to shoot a three-pointer so do Daniel gaffer credit for understanding his role and his strength he went seven

For seven 5 for five 7 for seven 9 for9 and now he just wenton five for five one other thing about Will Chamberlain the year that he that he made the 35 straight in January he had 32 straight so I mean listen it’s ridiculous what this gu did gresy Ruth everybody else

Bow your head that’s the deal I don’t want to hear about your your analytics and your me I don’t hear any of that those three guys they’re the guys they are record book in America North America what’s next it’s blank that Damon sabonis is now 10 and0 against Anthony

Davis man Frank did you watch any of that last night I mean look I mean the the Lakers are in a position you know and so is Sacramento they’re not going to play each other in a first round they can face somebody Advance they could play each other but sabonis just has it

It’s Kryptonite I mean Anthony Davis who can be look Anthony has been great all year he really has been yeah he’s been durable he’s been out there he’s been playing he and LeBron have been tag teaming and keeping them afloat even though they’re not they’re in the play

In right now but it’s still Kryptonite sabonis who leads the league in triple doubles I think he also leads in double doubles he’s just got it going when he gets Anthony Davis he goes right at him and he has a way of attacking Anthony Davis which seems to confound Anthony

Davis in a way that nobody else can replicate so give sabonis some credit but he’s got the Crypt Tonite for ad yeah maybe sabonis should have been an All-Star I’m going to go with on brand think about this Mike 0 and 10 against sabonis 1- seven against embiid and he’s

Lost his last seven games against Nicole yoken now to be fair to Anthony Davis LeBron is on his team he does have some other teammates have to take some of that responsibility but an how is that possible that he’s gone that many you know he’s got two those guys MVPs keep

In mind in 24 games against these guys and here’s the thing about Anthony Davis he’s played 63 games this year Mike that’s the most he’s played since his last two years in New Orleans when he played 75 he had the game on Sunday where he went for 27 and 25

Against Minnesota so he’s put up really big numbers but it’s a little hard to believe that he’s getting dominated like that by sabonis ID and of course joic yeah I don’t think the Lakers really really would want to see Sacramento in a playoff series even though they tell you

Something else that’s the final word let’s take one last break but still to come happy 27th birthday Simone biles the most decorated gymnast in history including four Golds at the Olympics six allaround world champions ships and eight United States allaround crowns biles famously battled the twisties at

The Tokyo games then took a two-year break to work on her mental health she’s now competing again and is in Championship form apparently ahead of this Summer’s Paris games small note for those of us from Chicago her husband Nfl safety Jonathan Owens just left the chees heads for the Bears with B’s

Tweeting quote I’m so excited about not having a connecting flight to go and see my husband close quote I knew you were going to get the Bears in there this is going to be a big summer for Simone biles you know Mike the last time she

Compete at the Olympics 2016 in Rio four gold medals and a bronze medal as well we’ll see how she does how she does in pass next summer coming indeed maybe a big fall and winner too Frank happy anniversary to St Joseph’s on this day 43 years ago John Smith’s layup at the

Buzzer beat top ranked dep Paul in dep Paul’s first game of the NCAA tournament this was a hug huge upset depal was led by Future NBA stars Mark aguire and Terry Cummings and had been the favorite to win the whole thing last night depal almost pulled off a huge upset of its

Own in the Big E tournament the Blue Demons who went 0 and 20 in the Big East this season LED Villanova by two with 10 seconds left before it all fell apart reports today have depal hiring former Ohio State head coach Chris Holman right so think about this on that same day

Joe’s beats to Paul Orlando Blackman in Kansas State they knock off number two Oregon State on the last second shot and then remember the famous US re 40ft he Arkansas to beat Louisville us re didn’t get the Sports Illustrated cover Orlando Blackman ended up on the cover it’s a

Day that really helped make March Madness it put the madness in March it’s one of the Historic Landmark days in theal losing that depressed us more than the Bulls losing back then cuz they were bigger than the Bulls in Chicago happy trails to abene Christian with their wack Tournament game against Steven F

Austin tied at 57 late the Wildcats had a chance to win but Arion Simmons got his shot Bo by Jalil bobbrun cran Christmas I love that name then received the outlet pass and shot it up to AJ kajus to basically redirected the thing into the hoop for a game-winning three

At the buzzer it’s the third time this season abene Christian fell victim to a buzz beat kajus kajus is on fire so last week we did the story about Anthony Edwards finishing a game with a block this is a block that leads to an incredible shot at the buzzer but

Remember Stephen F Austin it was five years ago they went down to Cameron Indoor Stadium and won a game against Duke on a last second shot so they have a habit of doing stuff like this well these are the kind of games and again put the madness in the March we need

More of them one Omission the commanders are sending Sam how a fourth round pick and a sixth round pick to the Seahawks for third and a fifth you know what that means Frank is that a Justin Fields maybe well they got to pick a quarterback they got the second pick

They pick running out of show let’s go to the big finish Leonel Messi is likely to miss Saturday’s game against DC United in DC with a right leg injury your thoughts it stinks for the people in DC because Messi last night had a goal and an assist as Miami beat

National in the conquer C Champions Cup I went through the same thing in New York over the summer he did play the last 30 minutes didn’t start the game however the Lions extended head coach Dan Campbell and GM Brad Holmes through 2027 does that make sense uh Detroit to

A Super Bowl its first one ever uh yeah lots of sense mandatory Joe flacko will reportedly join the Colts on a one-year deal is that a good fit no I think it is he’s going to back up Anthony Richardson so Flaco had a terrible playoff game

Against Houston but he really had a good season that’s right the Lions the Lions still looking for a Super Bowl went to the NFC title not the Super Bowl all right the Cavs sna the Pelicans four game winning streak are you surprised kind of kind of they were sort of mini

Roll But Donovan MIT back maybe I shouldn’t be too surprised last one Sun Celtics tonight who you got yes Celtics beat him last week first game after a long road trip porzingis is out you don’t know about Jaylen Brown Boston will still win I know Phoenix needs the

Game all right we’re out of time thanks for watching I’m Frank isol I’m Mike wi we are bumped by college basketball tomorrow but back on Monday with bracket Madness Knuckleheads how did I put the lions in the Super Bowl still one step away still haven’t played in one foree Al has

  1. Athletes getting paid is uneducational to college education and infringes on team values to educating players on how to play defense

  2. Can't lie 🤔 I'm kinda glad no one cheered for Frank, since I can't stand him. If I see he is on PTI, I just skip the video😕

  3. Remember when Reali, Wilbon, and Kornheiser were always in the studio together? Some things are better in their purest form.

  4. Wilbon's old thinking is getting old. I think 4th and 20 is a good idea. It's better than the onside kick for sure.

  5. Blue bloods was a fixed situation… you can have a D3 team knock off UK, Duke, KU , UNC and even Uconn any game in the tournament like they ar nothing.

  6. Wilbon gets worse as the years go bye.. the onside kick should change. They shouldn’t have changed the rules to begin with.. but since they did, it gives an opportunity to make the game way better, silver lining. Be way more fun to see a 4th and 20 to get the ball back. Wtf?! That’s actually awesome. Wilbon is an idiot and is pretending to be a purist. He’s just a loudmouth a lot now a days

  7. Old school thinkin is better than ANY MILLENIAL GEN Z BENT MINDED SOFT BORN PEOPLE!!!! FUCK ALL YOUR TODAYS FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS AND FUCKIN TWAT THOUGHTS!!!!

  8. The reason why NFL keeps changin rules especially the return game, cuz Todays players are Too SOFT!!!!!! TOO BABIED!!!! THEY HAVENT CUT THE UNBILLICAL CORD OR WEENED FROM MOMMYS TIT!!!! PLAYER SAFETY IS A CHEAP COUPOUT!! PLAYERS ARENT MEN!! PLAYIN A MANS GAME!!!! OVERPAID CRY BABIES!!!!!
