| 0:09.6 | That joke's blue. |
| 0:10.4 | It's Felger and Mass. |
| 0:11.9 | And here we are into the off-season. |
| 0:13.6 | As Sean Brandy says there, the questions can begin. |
| 0:16.7 | So let's go right to the source. |
| 0:18.1 | Owner of the Boston Celtics, Wick Grossbeck, |
| 0:20.5 | on the Volkswagen Dealer's expert hotline. Joining us now on the program, Wick, how are you? Man, Brandy made that sound super serious. I've got to really buckle down here. Well, if you ever listen, pretty much every time he comes back from a commercial break, there's a serious story they're attached to it. Always. Nothing new with that. He brings the majesty of the whole thing. And he's right. It was disappointing from the start up and down the season, from the start. The levity, though, of the last 20 minutes of listening to you guys to get ready for this interview was fantastic to hear how rigged everything is. And I really took it as a great compliment that they rigged it in my favor two years |

| 1:40.2 | and went to jail, and that's serious stuff. |
| 1:44.0 | But the lottery being rigged or anybody, they wouldn't have given the guy to a small market. They would have given it to New York or L.A., him, whatever.
