Hi good morning. Ni hi good morning. Hi good how are you. Im good. Ood. How are the markets thise th morning. G. A little bump. Reporter flat, completely flat. Yesterday we had a nice turnicrn around down from 127 to up 78 u points. Points a lot of caution and theres ars lot of confusion on wall street. The hope is the feds are goingeg to stand down on raisingai Interest Rates. You know, the worry is whats ia going on in europe. Eop but today were flat waitinglatw on tomorrows action which iswhi the june jobs report here in h the u. S. E u all right. And that might signal a littlete bit. Interesting news from the fed as far as Interest Rates. We talked about this a lotd before. The beginning of the year andand now were midway through they year and were still talking about it. Reporter yeah, we were expecting, you know, about a four interest r year then they scaled thatn back. Now nobody is expecting herbo Interest Rate hike this year. So the question is when, if att all next year do they hike . . So, a fed on hold sometimes set for the market is a good thingng but obviously not for savers. Av prance they can take a pageth from Companies Like starbucks lb or verizon because they seemeem to have hikes all the time. Verizon just the latest. Lates reporter yeah. Y you know, verizon is really flexing its muscles right now. Ew raising prices but also givingg customers more data. Mo dat if you look at the history the past three years our data usage has essentially tripled so the cheapest data plan at Verizon Wireless is going tooi t double in size and its goingtg to cost you five dollars more. Am so, for 35, you get two gigabytes of data. Most plans going up five to goiu 10 a month and yes you get more data. More d you can roll over that data to o the next month and they have a safety mode feature. Od if youre coming close tolose to going over your data limitdataim theyll just slow you down youow like really slow you but you wont face those steepep overcharges. I mean im not going theim lie the only reason that ithon have the carrier that i have th had for as long as ive everongr had a cell phone is becauseec im still grandfathered intofa the unlimited data and thatshas huge.

K h lets check in with the sports junkies 106. 7 f. M. The fan. Fan whats up guys. Atsp gu hey, good morning steve. , gor s hello steve. Whats up buddy. Tup b im dizzy trying read andryir follow all these free agent rumors. For dwyane wade i guess its a w chance to go back home. Ce to gob i dont know how the fit is howi with the bulls but yet another o superstar switching teams. Rsr sw it fits great in his bankis b can account. Can accou yeah, surent does. D he signed a 51 million deal. Deal. Especially this late in his carer. Re would you like to be like e disrespected by a deal like le the heat disrespected dwyane wade. Id like to be disrespected tore that tune. Who knows if its a great fit. Talentwise the bulls, i dontl know, theyre like a fringe playoff team i think at thisnk s point. Poin but dwyane wade is going home, g signs a two year deal with thewi bulls. He didnt feel like he was getting the love that you know, like superstars, superstars like Dirk Nowitzki is getting in dallas. Al hes looking for a new startew a and hes getting it i. If he felt disrespected byesd that amount of money. At at it makes sense to go back tok to chicago. Like you said hes going backn home. Ho the rumor is he was talking toag denver and he was talking to the bucks and some of these other teams. He didnt want to go it was just a leveraged play and ilay d guess it worked for himked f because he got 6 million moreiln than what the heat were offering. But is it a good fit . Who who knows. They got jimmy butler, they signed ron do. Maybe theyre slightly better bt but these athletes, i mean, 21 million isnt enough forn if these guys any. Ysny hes a good player but hes h not a great player anymore. Nymo hes on the decline so hene s should be happy that hesy tha h making, you know, 20 million0 ml plus we are season. Getting the amount of money that some of the most talentedgm younger guys are getting inet league. Do you think from a im trying look at this from a fan perspective now because you ay if you look at the money you mey understand from a business perspective sure these guys they have the right to make as muchsh money as they can bank f a fan perspective though do you likegl the fact that your team, tt yo whatever it may be is probablyip going to lose its super starsera every two or three years when it comes around. It do you like that or would you rather have somebody thatave soy sticks around. Ic no, i dont think any fant t likes. That we were forced in thishis area we had cal ripken playken y his entire career for thefor the Baltimore Orioles and you doiol have some but its becomingec less that stay with theirit the teams their entire career. Ar tim duncan can is going tong t retire a san antonio spur. S kobe bryant just retired as an a l. A. Laker. Er. Dirk nowitzki signed for twoed more years as a dallas d maverick. There are some buttere soe increasingly guys like kevin lii durant are leaving where superstars pretty much stayedy with their one tmueam. M. John wall a perfect test secaa of that. Hes got i think three moreee years on his deal with thewith wizards. Wi if they tone show significant si improvement in the next yeart in or two, john wall going to consider leaving the washington wizards. Wiz why wouldnt he. And he could get a deal d that dwarves anything thats out here now that these guysse y are signing. E signing. Absolutely. I want to bridge this into baseball. B the nats avoid the sweep, theyee win. Thats a great thing. Ths a the money thats being thrown out in the nba, do you thinkdo t that trickles into the other professional sports evenport though granted the nba roster nr size is much smaller than saynay baseball or football but do you think it has an impact that we get numb towed these t 160 Million Contract being con thrown out there. Fanshink from a perspective you get numb. Num i dont think the money thatk te the Baseball Players get affect the money that thethe basketball players. Dont cry for them. We saw Stephen Strasburg sign a 175 million deal to stayliono with the washington nationals. L. So, the money is really r dependent on the tv deals. D basketball got a huge tv deal gh so the players benefit. Im disappointed that if i t hit t really just going to beust goino hitting an nba contract. Ac it used to be that was a lot more money. Mon you can be disappointed dispn with that. Tha i would be ecstatic and youc and would never see me again. You guys are gone. S are g youre done . D would we see steve again if n steve hit. No way.
