That's so crazy.

Let's give it a go.

Well, I love the J.E.

Skeets take on tanking.

The best fix for tanking is to never talk about it.

That's right.

That was revolutionary podcasting work.

And I can't believe you're trying to run back to tanking talk, Skeets.

You're violating your own principle here.

I do.

It was a great take.

Look, I think a lot of the tanking stuff is being driven by the gambling implications, right?

Like everyone's like what's changed last year to this year.

Like the Raptors shut down Scotty Barnes late in games, but now Utah is getting fined for doing the same thing.

Well, what happened was John C. Phillips and Terry Roger got arrested.

That's what happened, right?

I mean, you, you cannot play games late in the season with lineups.

Our guy's going to be in or out with not adhering to the NBA's injury, like reporting protocols, because it just creates too much opportunity for exposure for bad actors to get their hands on information.

And then all of a sudden the NBA games are not a fair gambling exercise for, for everybody who's out there.

They have to have the appearance of propriety here so that the entire business machine of, of sports gambling goes along.
