Ryan Pataf, Senior Defense of Lime and for Miami, gunned out. "The key to this case, it's private." "It's private."

"A hour before he died, he was on a phone, argument about it."

"This might be a hit." "You want to truth, could you just want a conviction being placed here arrest?" "We had a killer amongst us." "Murder at the U, listen now." "The Celtics meet the spurs."

"USA beats Mexico in the World Baseball Classic." "And Kirkens joins us for five good minutes." "But we begin today with more player movement from the NFL." "The Jet's new quarterback is their old quarterback." "As they landed, Gino Smith and a seventh from the Raiders for a sixth."

"The Patriots got their replacement for Sephondigs in former Paco Romeo Dobbs."

"The Lions fill their need for a second running back by agreeing to terms with former chief Isaiah Pacheco."

"And the bills held on to tight-end Dawson Knox." "We'll bond which moves stands out most to you." "Well, it won't be the Jets." "And another quarterback, my God." "It's just, I know you got to be tired."

"That's your team of your youth." "And they just embarrass themselves." "Every time you do anything." "Some people write over that." "Tony, for me, this is really clear cut."

"It's Dobbs." "Go into the Patriots." "I mean, Diggs is not there anywhere." "He's seven years older." "Dobbs is 25."

"Diggs, I believe, is 32 years old." "Dobbs is really productive." "It can be even more productive for New England." "We can be sort of a clear number one." "And Tony, I'm not going to try to turn this in to Randy Moss in 2007."

"I'm not going to get carried away." "I won't." "I promise you, I won't." "I'm not going to say you got Moss." "But come on now, the Patriots are looking at very few areas of deficiency if any."

"On the offense, they might want to tinker with their offensive line." "But I'd say it's that receiver spot and to go." "And he's been with the Packers." "He's been with the organization where he knows what it means to be an adult."

"And so I think that's near a perfect fit for the Patriots."

"Yeah, I'm interested in the Pecheco deal because Kansas City doesn't need him anymore." "Because they picked up Kenneth Walker." "And David Montgomery was out of there already for the Lions." "So now Pecheco gets to work with..." "Come on, who's the running back?"

"Help me out here, Kansas City." "What kind of Gibbs?" "With Gibbs?" "Yeah, Jimmy or Gibbs." "He gets to work with him, which is exactly what Montgomery did."

"So we have a circle that is unbroken." "I have to talk about the team and my youth getting genocide." "Oh, he started there."

"He was a second round pick in 2013."

"Um, 12 and 18 I believe as a quarterback." "Well, this is a fabulous statistic." "Do statistics are fabulous." "28 touchdown passes." "36 interceptions."

"That's too many interceptions." "Wow." "But those 12 wins that he has are tied for second most of a Jets quarterback in all those ensuing years." "Because the Jets destroy their quarterback." "I do."

"You know, and that's what I think's going to happen here."

"I'm waiting, though, Mike. I got to be honest. I am still waiting. I want to see Kyla Murray." "Where does he go?" "Because quarterback is the coin in the bar." "I got to have a bar." "He can be so far."

"Where does he go and where does Kirk Cousins go?" "Where did they go?" "I'm waiting for that." "Let's move to the NBA and tonight's featured game, The Boston Celtics at San Antonio." "Both teams were off last night and that time to think about this one."

"The Celtics are in second place in the eastern conference with a record of 43 and 21."

"The Celtics have won five of six and 14 of 17. And if you think that's good, and it is." "The first of one nine of ten and 15 of 16." "Well, by what intrigued you most about tonight's matchup." "My God, Tony, there's so many places you can start." "I'm going to start with Jason Tainum on the screen right there."

"And maybe having played two good games already had a little practice time, some rest." "If he's out there for any minutes." "I want to see how San Antonio defends Jason Tainum. If they attack him." "If they say we're putting the old playbook from the rest of the earlier this season away." "And we're dealing with you like you are first team all NBA Jason Tainum."

"Not some dude coming off nine months off." "So I'm interested to see how that happens and who they use in that way." "And also, of course."

"What are the Celtics going to do defensively against?

"You know who?" "Winbee." "Costone?"

"The more we go with Wimbaniama this season."

"And it may be he and Jalen Brown that are out there leading the way."

"Sorry, SGA, for the moment we're going to concentrate on these other two dudes." "For MVP." "Wimbaniama, Tony, every night seems to add something Jalen Brown to need to add anything." "He's got a ring." "He's been great."

"You pointed this out. You were honest in November." "I give you full credit." "But I want to see Wimbaniama." "And what heat you know he takes them seriously." "I don't want to track over everything you've said. I agree with all of it. I want to see how the spurs defend Tainum.

If they get all over him because they think he's still shaky because he hasn't. He's only played two games." "I want to see how they defend Jalen Brown." "I want to know if Wimbaniama is going to go out and chase Brown and Tainum. On the three point line." "Yeah."

"They can do that and I want to see all that. I just want to get to a couple of things." "Since February 1st."

"The San Antonio spurs have the best record roll of basketball. The Celtics are second."

"Since February 1st, the Celtics have the best defense on all basketball." "San Antonio is second and since February 1st and something called net rating." "San Antonio is one and Boston is two."

"I believe that San Antonio will win this game."

"I think they're going to win this game." "But if Boston were to win this game, it would be enormously impressive." "Yeah." "Even for a regular season game, it would be impressive." "And now to Tainum say it's five-three win over Mexico."

"And the world baseball classic last night." "American ace Paul schemes struck out seven over four scoreless. Aaron Judge gunned to run it down at third from right field when the game was scoreless." "And then his home run along with Roman Anthony's three runs shot." "Provited all the offense, the U.S. needed in one inning."

"Because Bobby with slick play it short, helped hold Mexico in check." "Toni, the biggest highlight to you from last night was what?" "Well, it's schemes." "I mean, he went forward innings. I thought he would go three and not four." "He threw 60 pitches. He had seven strikeouts. He gave up one hit."

"That's what he gave up as one hit." "The runner that you're talking about with Aaron Judge."

"They didn't allow runner all the way to third."

"Because Aaron Judge cut down that rhythm to help of the third." "Yeah." "And then they come back here."

"Look, the second highlight is what happened in the bottom of the third one."

"The United States scored all the runs." "And I have a bone to pick with a Mexico manager Benchigill." "Because in that inning, Bryce Harper hit a very hard line drive off the pitcher's foot." "Yes." "And then everybody goes out to the mound to see if the pitcher can pitch."

"And the pitcher convinces everybody including the manager that he can pitch." "Here are the next five batters." "Okay." "Judge home run, Kyle Swarber single." "Bregman strikes out. Kyle Rolley hit by pitch."

"Roman Anthony 417 feet." "So I don't think they should have left them in." "That's my position." "Should not have left them in." "Yeah, you know, when he got hit."

"It looked like it was right on the ankle." "Or maybe it's just if I'm thinking, eh." "I should put you off, Tony." "With all the attention, we've devoted the last few days." "And they've devoted to how to handle pitchers in this particular competition."

"I'm thinking, you know what you might want to get him out here." "And then it's what I thought." "The hit by pitch said to me, "Okay, we've seen enough now. "Go get him." "So I thought, sort of the game."

"Yeah." "Come then in the balance." "But you know what, Tony?" "The judge looked, there's a lot of great players right now." "There are a lot of great individual stars in baseball."

"Just across the country from New York to Seattle." "And certainly down to Los Angeles." "And I can't wait to see more of show-hate in this tournament." "But Tony, judge, when judge is going and he gives you that kind of defense." "And hits it out like that and gives you a stakes your team to a two-o-lead."

"Who's better than him?" "Except maybe show-hate." "I may be." "You have to talk about them together." "You do."

"You cannot separate them." "Let's take a break coming up." "How should teams deal with Victor Wembanyon?" "We're going to ask Kendrick Perkins." "We'll also ask him about Lou Dord."

"And his latest playgun foul on the Joker." "Stop fouling the Joker." "Near Gibbs, Tony." "You're written that down." "You should have known that."

"He's a great runner." "I mean, that circle is now complete." "But Tony, I don't know if Pachecos is tough." "As my government, my government is the top two." "You know what I'm trying for."

"They're trying to just naturally replace the county for body." "Yeah." "Man, one-one wears the emergency." "It's the middle of the night." "In a small town on the Jersey Shore."

"Someone reports an abandoned car on a bridge."

"A search gets underway for the missing driver.

"19-year-old Sarah Stern." "Is it a missing person? Is it a suicide?" "At this point, nobody knows." "Old friendships." "Berryd Cache."

"And a sinister plot that was once pitched as a movie plays out in real life." "I'm Tudue Chang." "From 2020, an ABC audio." "Listen now, to bridge of lives wherever you get your podcasts." "Some NBA questions for our great friend from NBA today, ESPN, NBA analyst, Kendrick Perkins."

"Let's start with this." "The Celtics and the Spurs are going to play tonight." "I got to go right to Victor Wimbanyama." "Because he is backing up all the hype." "I accused Willb on a slurping him for like a couple of years."

"But he's backing up." "It seems like he gets nothing but better all the time." "You're a big man, you know that position." "Where do you look at him and think he still needs work?" "Well, let me add more to it, Tony."

"The San Antonio Spurs are going to have to play him five year, one billion dollars."

"That's how much he's got." "That box office." "That's number one." "No, but two." "He's improving every single night."

"The only thing that I could see that could cause him problems is him being even killed through a seven-game series."

"Not getting too high, not getting too low." "But when it comes to checking all the boxes." "He's doing that." "He has found that balance of being able to mix it up for his being able to be a force in the middle offensively." "And take you out on the perimeter."

"It's nothing that he can't do." "I'm watching the seven, five, seven, six, seven, seven." "How have I told you?" "Come off a pin down action." "I'm watching him catch lops and do freakish things with him just because he wants to show off."

"I'm watching this young man cry after a regular season win because that's how bad he wants it." "That is scary." "He has an old soul." "And I'm telling you right now." "He is ready to lead this San Antonio Spurs team."

"And he's trying to go win the championship this year."

"Not next year, or do you have to mix this year?"

"Spread this out for a second perk." "After facing the spurs tonight, the Celtics have the thunder on Thursday." "I've sat with you for a million regular season games."

"And you always tell me, stay calm, stay calm."

"It's the regular season. Don't get carried away." "Purk, we're an interesting point of the season." "How much do these games now count?" "What the playoffs have started." "And especially when you look at the spurs."

"The spurs are trying to get to that number one spot." "The only thing that you could say that's wrong with them is that they don't have experience." "So they want this many games that they possibly can on their home court." "Now the Celtics on the other hand, yes they have the most championship experience out of any team in the Eastern Conference." "But I'm looking at Jalen Brown."

"After with SGA did last night, put on that MVP of performance against Jokeg and the Nuggets." "I'm looking at Jalen Brown that respond."

"The only way that he could respond to what SGA is doing since he's returned is by dominating these next two games and keeping his name alive individually in the MVP conversation."

"That's what I'm looking forward to." "And by the way he's going to be messed up against the guy that gave K-Cun and him here." "That's some way frustrated as SGA." "And I'm talking about stuff on a castle." "The other beats defensively for the Senate some of those spurs."

"So it's a lot of individual matchups." "But it's also a lot of individual goals." "And especially with Jalen Brown that I'm looking into in these next two games." "I'm glad you mentioned SGA though."

"Because he was so incredible last night in beating the Nuggets.

And he ties Wilde record with his 126 consecutive game of 20+ points." "Purk, how significant is that specific record to you?" "I mean any time you break Wilde Chamberlain." "Anytime you catch Wilde Chamberlain?" "That's enough saying in this self."

"You know, I come on here for the PTI family and I'm coming on here with two legends. Two greats. Y'all make me better." "We watch SGA yesterday make other guys around him better." "I still going get his 30+ while hitting the game when the 3 points shot." "Jalen Williams had 29. I said Joe Chippin."

"All the guys would get easy looks because of the tension and the growth of SGA." "Kevin going there told me some way long time ago when we was with the Celtics."

"He said, "Purk, I go home and I watch all these up and coming young supersta...

"I said it was growth to you." "He said when you able to go get Joe 30 and make guys around you better when they finish with 20 and 15 because of your doing."

"That's what we're witnessing right now from SGA."

"We will get you out of here on this." "Lude Dort flagrantly fouled Nicole Yokech again and then apologize to him after the game." "What did you think of that foul and what did you think of the apology?" "Well, one, I feel like we're this little Denver Oklahoma City is becoming somewhat of a bit of a rivalry."

"Right like the getting into each other phase did you see SGA emotions. Luke Dort is never going to change."

"But that's who he is. He's a physical presence. He's an enforcer. He brings tenacity." "And I knew he was going to apologize because I played for that organization." "Right, and I did some crazy stuff while I was playing." "I got ejected, I got flavor files and the next morning you know what happened?" "You end up getting called to the principal office too."

"To principal prestige." "And he end up telling you some real stuff and telling you what this organization is about." "Not trying to take away from what you bring, but trying to make sure that you keep the main thing, the main thing." "Because one thing we know in order for them to go and repeat, Luke Dort is going to have to be available." "And you can't be available by doing dumb stuff." "You got to be able to stay on the floor, stay in the moment because I always go take it."

"One game for you to be suspended or ejected and you cost your team in the entire series." "Yeah, that's always perfect. Thanks so much for being asked." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Preciate our lives and thank you."

"Let's take one last break, still to come top rank Duke." "Heels with injuries to two key contributors." "It's Kendrick Purpose to stay keep a cool boot."

"That's what Luke Dort better do now again."

"Five conference championship games tonight could produce more March matters." "Keep a cool boot." "I thought it was a cheap shot. You didn't think it was a cheap shot?" "Yeah." "But the apologies was set to the point. Now how does Denver feel about that?"

"That's what's worth asking going forward." "So-clinked fresh music." "And so-clinked fresh by ID." "Am I good? Am I good?" "Am I good?"

"Am I good?" "For all of you." "All of you, prize." "This week, Mini Cherry Rhythm, 330, 290, 70." "Or tableburn, kilo for 1,49, and a lot of other things."

"Now there's a lot of money." "And now there's a lot of money." "And now there's a lot of money." "And now there's a lot of money." "Good for all."

"And college and pro football balls of fame."

Woodson was the 10th pick in the 1987 draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers out of Purdue. In 1993 he was defensive player of the year while with the Steelers. That season Woodson had eight interceptions including one for a touchdown and 95 tackles. In 2000 Woodson was part of the defense that propelled the Baltimore Ravens to a Super Bowl win. Woodson played 17 NFL seasons for the Steelers, 49ers, Ravens and Raiders.

He is third all-time in interceptions with 71 and first all-time in pick sixes with 12.

Tom, when you talk about greatness in the secondary in Pittsburgh, I got to start. Give him my age. With Mel Blunt, I got to. Sure, it's possible. Sure, that Woodson.

Sure, you read his credentials. My God. He's in the discussion for the go. Not just of the Steelers. But anybody secondary.

Yeah, but we're old, and he's a tough guy. It's fun for us. And not so happy anniversary Rudy Goldbear on this day six years ago. The jazz center was ridiculing concern for the rapidly spreading coronavirus at a post-shooter-round session with the media.

Then deliberately touched every microphone and tape recorder in front of him like he was doing a comedy sketch. Two days later, karma-cold. Goldbear experienced flu-like symptoms and was diagnosed with COVID.

The first NBA player to get it, patient zero.

The jazz thunder game was immediately canceled, and within days the NBA shut down for months. Goldbear is now with Minnesota averaging 11 points, 11.4 rebounds, and he is shooting 70.8% from the field. He is a four-time defensive player of the year. He's having a great season, Tony. You know, looking back on that six years ago, it was a symbolic beginning.

Of COVID in sports. Because right after that, it wasn't just the NBA. It was March, March, March, March.

It was just like everything had to go away.

And you tie it to Rudy's go bare.

I'm not sure that was fair, but that's what was.

Well, I think the behavior contributed to the tie. No doubt. Happy trails to two top contributors at Duke. The Blue Devils announced this morning that starting point card, Caleb Foster suffered a broken foot against North Carolina.

He will be out indefinitely. Foster was averaging 8.5 points and three assists per game.

Also out with the foot issue is the big man Patrick Gungba the second

who will miss the ACC tournament. Gungba is averaging 11 points and six rebounds per game. Will bond how big a deal are these injuries to the number one team in the nation? Tony, it may not be a big deal for the ACC tournament. Or the first weekend of March madness.

But you got some real threats out there, even to Duke and Michigan. And I, you know, you don't want to have to miss those guys. It is too bad they're injured and out for now. And they melancholy trails to Matt Snell.

The Ring of Honor jets running back past the way this morning at the age of 84.

In Super Bowl 3, Snell rushed for 120 on yards and scored in New York. So only touchdown in the jets upset when over the heavily favored quotes. Snell's performance was key to Joe Nameth delivering on his legendary guarantee. Tony, I couldn't separate.

That's a youngster, Snell and Booser.

I know you could because these were your guys. That was sort of a thunder and lightning situation, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah. Matt Snell was a power runner right up the middle of an Emerson Booser would flare out to the side. Look, we, we kid the jets all of the jets have one highlight.

This is the highlight. Name it through in this as he walks left of field. That's their only highlight. That was indeed the team of my youth. Just like the 69 nets were the team of my youth.

And the next, you know, there's everybody's got one champion chip in him. And that's all I got. Well, the mix had two. But it's been, I don't know, 50 years.

So it is, it is with great fondness that I remember that jet's team with great fondness.

Let's go to the big finish.

Let's do it. The pistons can snap their 4-game losing streak tonight at the nets. Will they do it by 30? They'll do it. Red's ace, Hunter Green.

Need surgery to remove bone chips from his pitching elbow. He's out until he's alive. Tony, you have to huge deal. Yeah, he was 7 and 4 last year with a 2-0, 6-0, he's all right. Yeah.

The panthers can shut down Grand Marshan for the season with a lower body injury. Does that make sense? I mean, the panthers are tired. They're exhausted. They're worn out.

And Marshan, being worn out, sort of, flexed the whole deal. Made eliminated Binghamton, no. In the semis of America, East women's attorney last night. Did you watch? I didn't know if I didn't watch.

It's not on any TV I have. But my heart was in it. We only lost by four on the road. That's not fair to be able to lose. I had 24 points.

Last one championship games tonight. The WCCCA, North East, Horizon and Natural Atlantic. Put some winters for us. They're all worth it. Santa Clara, Gonzaga.

That's really worth your time. I got Santa Clara winning that game, Tony. Had a great win last night against St. Mary's. We're out of time trying to do better than the next time. Can we yuck off, shout out on my group on the same time tomorrow, not worth it.

Pitya. It's almost over the street. There's a pool in this pool. Just a little bit. And then it's open.

Isn't it? No, no. I don't. This street is my safe space. Hmm.

Do you think it's all yours? Yeah, exactly. This street is the street app. It's just a place. It's just a studio, a job, or a place.

It's safe. With Viso Steuja.
