What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
The views and opinions of Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, and Mark Grody should not be taken too seriously. Especially when they give advice. Do not take Marshall's analogies literally. Especially when it comes to Russell Dorsey. The sports thoughts of Rahimi, Harris, and Grody may change at any time. It's just sports. Okay, thanks, bye.
Rahimi Harrison-Grody. 10-2 on 104.3 The Score.
The issue is basketball has changed because sports and our attention span has changed.
And the way we as society have made it a rings-or-nothing culture.
Mm-hmm.
Teams are now gearing to make sure that their guys are healthy for the postseason, and they're not as concerned with the regular season.
And why should they be? They tried to change the minimum number of games played for all the NBA honors, whether it's MVP, Ricky of the Year, All-NBA.
That hasn't worked. Our company is worth nothing. That's the difference between you and I. Business isn't about money to me, David. If tomorrow my company goes under, I will just start another paper company and then another and another and another. I have no shortage of company names.
I saw a suggestion like you take away the three point line. It's like that would bother me because it's like, bro, no, that idea is terrible. What do you want to do, Russ? Tell me how you want to change basketball. Yes. Oh, you wanted to get physical again. A little bit more. Because I think one of my issues with, and I love old heads, and I mean that with all due respect, but I never like talking about basketball. Like, oh, back in the day, you couldn't just come in and look. I don't think being able to punch people when they drove to the basket. That's not good. That wasn't good basketball. Ben to the rack, lays it up. No, but we do have a little foul. Ben just went after our 10. We got trouble right here in the Motor City.
We got big trouble here in the Motor City. Fight, fight, fight.
Leila Rahimi, Marshall Harris, Mark Grody. Midday's 10 a.m. to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio 104.3 The Score.
You know what? Just for the hell of it, happy birthday, Michael Jordan.
Happy birthday.
Is that Harry Carey telling Michael Jordan happy birthday?
Happy birthday, Michael.
Is this microphone not working? Are we in trouble? This is Rahimi Harris and Grody on 104.3 The Score. It's Layla and Mark Grody, but apparently we're having some issues with the microphone situation here.
You get all set. Who's messing with the mics? You know who was just here a second ago? And it still sounds weird. Now it sounds like I'm actually on the radio.
Do you have both mics on? Wait, hold on.
Hello?
Okay, so you have... Wow, so this mic... So you have the right mic pointed towards you, but the left mic is on.
Right, but that's the mic that's actually... So this mic does not work?
You know, you take a day off, and all hell breaks loose. How dare they do this on Michael Jordan's birthday?
Gabe Ramirez. Gabe Ramirez was the one sitting here for the last five hours with David Haw. Those two... Now, Gabe had issues with the mic, too.
Why are you trying to blame Gabe?
Well, because they were trying to say I hate America.
Well, do you?
I'm playing the game. You know what I'm saying?
I love America. I mean, you refused to watch the Olympics, and I remember you saying you hated America.
That's because I have all the gold medals already. What do I need? Why do I need to watch the Olympics?
I'm kidding.
I have all the gold medals.
Mark never said that. This is Ricky Mears and Grody on 104.3 The Score. Sorry about our equipment.
Yeah, you said it.
Evergreen line.
That's what she said.
That's what she said. At 65 outside yesterday, everybody was happy. Bernie and I did the right thing and took the day off. So we're all fresh and rested.
Just walking about the city. I think you and I were not on the same path, but just walking about the city yesterday. La, la, la, la, la, la, la. Having a nice day in the city of Chicago.
Frolicking. Frolicking about. Like the beginning of a Disney movie. earbuds and do you go earbuds or do you put the full cover headphones on when you're walking what's your walking style i have a backpack i don't do the full cover of the headphones like these i go with earbuds or like lately just to be ridiculous corded headphones
