- 0:46Speaker 4: points in the Super Bowl point differential, so we split.

- 1:20Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and it came back heads.
- 1:22Speaker 2: That was one of my bad points.
- 1:24Speaker 3: That's how you don't be won the damn thing. You
- 1:26Speaker 3: got that. You got that.
- 1:27Speaker 4: I think you put ten points on that and you
- 1:30Speaker 4: got it, so right out of the gate. I was
- 1:31Speaker 4: in trouble. Yes, I was annoyed. And that was a
- 1:34Speaker 4: terrible game. Boy, I was a terrible football game.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:37Speaker 4: I think you had Seattle and I took New England, right,
- 1:39Speaker 4: so you won that too, Yes, Yeah, you are a
- 1:42Speaker 4: big year. You know, you pick one of the favorites Seattle.
- 1:45Speaker 4: Another example. You love picking the favorites. I mean, you
- 1:49Speaker 4: won't go out and on them under any circumstances.
- 1:51Speaker 3: But it paid off in six Yes.
- 1:56Speaker 2: What I love is winning, Dog.

- 2:02Speaker 2: Yes.
- 2:03Speaker 1: So we're uh, well, we'll get to the guest in

- 2:23Speaker 1: First off, dog, on vacation, are you able to relya
- 2:27Speaker 1: at this stage of me?
- 2:29Speaker 2: Really?
- 2:29Speaker 1: Because early on it was try like me and Dan
- 2:31Speaker 1: had difficulty going on vacation. You go on vacation in
- 2:35Speaker 1: our industry, dog, and a big story breaks like Mac Trosby,
- 2:38Speaker 1: and you want to get on a plane and fly
- 2:40Speaker 1: home and speaking to a microphone.
- 2:42Speaker 3: What I try to do. What I try to do, John,
- 2:44Speaker 3: is I try to make.
- 2:45Speaker 4: Sure I leave the phone off for a good part
- 2:48Speaker 4: of the vacation, so I don't have the phone on.
- 2:51Speaker 4: So I at least when I did that, this time,
- 2:54Speaker 4: I had the phone off. Now listen, am I ready
- 2:56Speaker 4: to go home by that last weekend?
- 2:58Speaker 3: And I leave on a Monday? Absolute? So I mean,
- 3:01Speaker 3: you know, sitting by a palm tree.
- 3:03Speaker 4: I did play golf twice, but sitting by a palm
- 3:05Speaker 4: tree and taking daily runs and getting a couple of
- 3:08Speaker 4: massages and a man and a pet and a facial Yes,
- 3:14Speaker 4: there is a time there that I am ready to leave.
- 3:16Speaker 3: But I try to and I usually picked that week
- 3:19Speaker 3: to go. Anyway.
- 3:20Speaker 4: This is not much going on now in this particular situation.
- 3:23Speaker 4: A lot going out with the free agency trades and
- 3:25Speaker 4: football and everything else. But I try to pick that
- 3:28Speaker 4: week right around early February, late February, March, before the
- 3:32Speaker 4: NCAA tournament went. There's not a whole hell of a
- 3:35Speaker 4: lot going on, But yes, I get a little lancy.
- 3:37Speaker 3: I get a little lancy. At the end. I read
- 3:39Speaker 3: four books.
- 3:40Speaker 4: I'm reading a book on Don Rickles, Mark Twain eleven
- 3:43Speaker 4: hundred pages, Robert Parrish the Chief, and I read a
- 3:47Speaker 4: clime drama book. So I read a lot of books.
- 3:50Speaker 4: I tell my wife in the morning, Okay, you go
- 3:53Speaker 4: that way. I'll go this way, and I'll see you
- 3:54Speaker 4: at dinner time.
- 3:58Speaker 2: That go that way.
- 4:00Speaker 4: I go this way, and the beaches am all long,
- 4:02Speaker 4: and I'll see at dinner.
- 4:05Speaker 2: And what is she doing all day? I mean, listen,
- 4:06Speaker 2: I guess that's that's a vacation for her.
- 4:08Speaker 4: It's a absolutely not go listen to me. Yes, she
- 4:11Speaker 4: gets to do her own little thing, so she has
- 4:13Speaker 4: a good time. She enjoys the place we go, so
- 4:15Speaker 4: listens good. I was glad to get home. Don't get
- 4:17Speaker 4: me wrong, glad to get home. You know this, we
- 4:20Speaker 4: worked how to deal with the How about eighty you know,
- 4:23Speaker 4: can we not shoot forty three free throws when you're
- 4:26Speaker 4: scoring an eighty three points in the ball game? Can
- 4:29Speaker 4: we not shoot any three free throws? Can we not
- 4:30Speaker 4: make twelve points at the free throw line? Last five
- 4:33Speaker 4: minutes of the game. I mean, they made not a
- 4:35Speaker 4: joke there at the end in the heat game. I'm
- 4:37Speaker 4: sorry they made it a joke.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I listen, I agree with you. Israel good He here
- 4:41Speaker 1: as who would do the show with. He disagrees with
- 4:44Speaker 1: both of us. He thinks eighty three is eighty three.
- 4:47Speaker 1: What was surprising about it is the organization pat Riley
- 4:50Speaker 1: Eric spols for old school guys allowing their guy to
- 4:54Speaker 1: kind of get it manufactured eighty three points at the
- 4:57Speaker 1: end there right.
- 4:58Speaker 4: Oh, it's it's stupid. I mean, you know what, what
- 5:01Speaker 4: seventy two wasn't going to be enough. I mean, you
- 5:04Speaker 4: know the problem with the way that he did it.
- 5:07Speaker 4: If he scored you know, sixty eight seventy, we would
- 5:09Speaker 4: have gone crazy.
- 5:11Speaker 3: What a performance started? A nah d did.
- 5:14Speaker 4: But the fact that they scrambled, they break Kobe and
- 5:17Speaker 4: get the over eighty one. It makes you analyze the
- 5:20Speaker 4: number instead of analyzing his performance.
- 5:24Speaker 3: And that's the problem with what Spposter did.
- 5:27Speaker 4: I mean, he's the only player to score over seventy
- 5:29Speaker 4: and is about fourteen guys. It's happened fourteen times. Nine
- 5:33Speaker 4: guys have done it. Wilted it five times. He's the
- 5:35Speaker 4: only guy to shoot under fifty percent. Joey was twenty
- 5:38Speaker 4: or forty three. You know David Thompson when he scored
- 5:43Speaker 4: eighty three, but he scored seventy three and nineteen seventy eight.
- 5:46Speaker 4: Not this line was twenty eight of thirty eight and
- 5:49Speaker 4: seventeen of twenty from the free throw line.
- 5:52Speaker 3: No threes. That's the way you do it. That's the
- 5:55Speaker 3: way you do it. Number two. If you consider the
- 5:58Speaker 3: idea with the free throws.
- 6:01Speaker 4: I mean you gotta be I mean listen, I mean
- 6:04Speaker 4: Jordan and Kobe the most free throws they.
- 6:08Speaker 3: Ever took in the game was twenty seven.
- 6:11Speaker 2: He's twenty three, right right?
- 6:14Speaker 4: I got and then I got sposed to yesterdy Anda's
- 6:16Speaker 4: high horse. I apologize to nobody. Fine, I don't care.
- 6:19Speaker 4: You don't have to apologize to me. Hey, take care
- 6:21Speaker 4: of your team. But don't tell me that I can't
- 6:24Speaker 4: analyze eighty three points when you did it in very
- 6:28Speaker 4: shaky fashion. Don't dare tell me that were members of
- 6:31Speaker 4: the media, because when you do that the way they
- 6:33Speaker 4: did it, you have every right to sit there and
- 6:36Speaker 4: critique it.
- 6:37Speaker 3: And it takes away from the.
- 6:38Speaker 4: Kid's accomplishment because if you score seventy was saying, wow,
- 6:42Speaker 4: what a performance. But when you do what he did
- 6:44Speaker 4: to get to eighty three, that's when your eyebrows and
- 6:47Speaker 4: your antenna is raised.
- 6:49Speaker 5: Dog On a different Miami, Miami of Ohio, they lose.
- 6:54Speaker 5: They were thirty one and oh they lose to seven
- 6:56Speaker 5: and eleven UMass in the MAC Tournament. Are you keeping
- 7:00Speaker 5: them in the field?
- 7:01Speaker 3: Absolutely? I mean yes, you know yes.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Now, I think the bigger question Taylor is going to
- 7:07Speaker 4: be are they're gonna make them go playing Dayton in
- 7:09Speaker 4: the playing? You know, because they're playing with those last
- 7:14Speaker 4: four at largers. Remember it's twenty minutes in Miami's campus,
- 7:18Speaker 4: number one, Dayton and number two.
- 7:20Speaker 3: I don't think they should have to go play in
- 7:22Speaker 3: that playing.
- 7:23Speaker 4: I mean, they won thirty one, so I understand it's
- 7:25Speaker 4: allows the conference there and all in play anybody out
- 7:28Speaker 4: of car. I get all that, but this is a
- 7:30Speaker 4: you know, they went thirty one straight, you win thirty
- 7:32Speaker 4: one straight.
- 7:33Speaker 3: I mean, geez. Furthermore, look at the bubble. These teams stink.
- 7:38Speaker 4: Indiana loses, Texas loses, Auburn loses, VC that cole gets beat,
- 7:45Speaker 4: Virginia Tech loses, Stanford loses.
- 7:48Speaker 2: What.
- 7:49Speaker 4: I gotta go see Indiana. That's those fourteen games. Play
- 7:51Speaker 4: another game. I mean, come on, have a little sense.
- 7:56Speaker 4: I could even make the argument that the teams that
- 7:58Speaker 4: lost in the one big leagues, and they were a
- 8:00Speaker 4: main of them who were the one seeds, Navy, East, Tennessee, State, Belmont,
- 8:06Speaker 4: I can make an argument that they should be in
- 8:07Speaker 4: a freaking tournament ahead of Indiana that's got fourteen losses.
- 8:11Speaker 4: So from that standpoint, I have no problem whatsoever of
- 8:15Speaker 4: making Miami of Ohio and that large team, and I
- 8:18Speaker 4: would not put them in Dayton I think they might.
- 8:21Speaker 3: I would not do that.
- 8:23Speaker 2: Dog.
- 8:23Speaker 1: There's twelve teams in their conference. There's a bunch of
- 8:25Speaker 1: teams of what bad schedules. None of them went thirty
- 8:27Speaker 1: in O It's absurd, you know, yeah, you.
- 8:31Speaker 3: Have to give them. I mean, what's the point of playing.
- 8:33Speaker 4: If you go thirty one and oh what I want
- 8:35Speaker 4: to see Auburn who lost fifteen sixteen games because they
- 8:39Speaker 4: haven't won a game at Florida.
- 8:40Speaker 3: I got to see Auburn in the NCAA Tournament.
- 8:43Speaker 4: Enough already, Well, you know we've seen enough of the
- 8:46Speaker 4: eleventh place teams out of the group four, out of
- 8:50Speaker 4: the group four conferences to.
- 8:51Speaker 3: Put them in the en C DOUBLEA. Try something a
- 8:53Speaker 3: little different.
- 8:54Speaker 4: I have no problem with Miami, Ohio. Put them in,
- 8:57Speaker 4: put them regularly in. Don't make them go to Dayton, Ohio.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Have you a you know, you're the biggest baseball fan
- 9:03Speaker 1: I know, and I'm wondering, have you fallen in love
- 9:05Speaker 1: here with the world BASEBALLA?
- 9:06Speaker 4: Oh god no, So it's way it's way too now. Listen,
- 9:11Speaker 4: they're gonna be into it this weekend in Miami. They're
- 9:13Speaker 4: gonna have to course, you know better than me. Forty
- 9:15Speaker 4: thousand every game.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Uh yeah, forty thousand every game, sold out, every game.
- 9:19Speaker 4: Yes, and then none of these fans go to a
- 9:22Speaker 4: Marling game. It's the stantest thing in the world.
- 9:24Speaker 1: No, not a one, not a one. You'll find zero crossover.
- 9:30Speaker 4: And I don't want to hear about the mornins on
- 9:32Speaker 4: the good because when the Morlings were good with the
- 9:34Speaker 4: two championships, they ain't go to the Games then either,
- 9:36Speaker 4: so you can't.
- 9:38Speaker 2: I mean it depends on games. You're talking about two.
- 9:40Speaker 4: Titles and nobody went to the games and in ninety seven,
- 9:43Speaker 4: so you know, listen, Here's what I would say, Stuve,
- 9:47Speaker 4: Here's what I would say. You ready, the Games Sunday
- 9:51Speaker 4: night and the US will be Canada. You would think
- 9:54Speaker 4: the Games Sunday night, schemes against the Dominican Republic with
- 10:00Speaker 4: Guerrero Machado, Tatists and Soto eight o'clock, and you know
- 10:08Speaker 4: that'd be something to watch. Schemes against the great lineup.
- 10:11Speaker 4: Let's see how he pitches. People will be into that.
- 10:13Speaker 4: In Miami. People will be into that. But they did
- 10:17Speaker 4: not distinguish themselves properly here the last week.
- 10:20Speaker 3: I mean, let me get this straight.
- 10:22Speaker 4: They beat Brazil, and they beat Mexico and they beat
- 10:27Speaker 4: Great Britain, and they're.
- 10:28Speaker 3: Gonna party like they won the world They like they
- 10:30Speaker 3: won the World Series. We were out to the wee
- 10:33Speaker 3: hours of the morning.
- 10:34Speaker 4: What they won three lousy games, two of which you
- 10:38Speaker 4: and I could put a team together and beat Great
- 10:40Speaker 4: Britain for Kuan out Loud never won a game any WBC.
- 10:44Speaker 4: I're gonna party the wee hours and I love the
- 10:46Speaker 4: ROSA love him, but let's be fair.
- 10:49Speaker 3: He did not know the rule. Well, I knew the
- 10:51Speaker 3: rule before the game.
- 10:52Speaker 4: No, you didn't, because if you did know the rule
- 10:54Speaker 4: before the game goats, it wouldn't have been at first
- 10:56Speaker 4: base over Bryce Opper, and you wouldn't have had freaking
- 11:00Speaker 4: warm up in the eighth inning when it's a one
- 11:02Speaker 4: differential situation.
- 11:04Speaker 3: And so somebody called him and the dougout mark.
- 11:06Speaker 4: You don't want anybody be careful here, get somebody else up,
- 11:09Speaker 4: because we can't have Kershaw give up nine runs. And
- 11:11Speaker 4: he bought Mason Miller in. So I mean they did
- 11:14Speaker 4: not handle They didn't.
- 11:16Speaker 3: Know the rule. Still, Taylor, they didn't know the rule.
- 11:19Speaker 4: The day's four folks with the America US team did
- 11:22Speaker 4: not know the tiebreaker rules with the three teams.
- 11:26Speaker 3: In the same pool. You and I both know that
- 11:29Speaker 3: they did know the rule.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Dog.
- 11:31Speaker 5: If the Yankees get off to a slow start this
- 11:33Speaker 5: year and have to make a move from Aaron Boone,
- 11:35Speaker 5: would you consider Francisco Servelli I've been pretty impressed with
- 11:37Speaker 5: him team.
- 11:38Speaker 3: They did a good job. I don't think the Yankees
- 11:40Speaker 3: would make a move from Boone to matter what.
- 11:42Speaker 4: They love Boone. You know, Cash from loves him. He
- 11:45Speaker 4: does you know, he does what Cash wants him to do.
- 11:47Speaker 3: You know you want to play this guy fifth. We
- 11:49Speaker 3: bat this guy fifth. We do that, We do that.
- 11:51Speaker 4: I mean, you know they give the the Boone gives
- 11:54Speaker 4: the lineup at four o'clock every day to the guys upstairs.
- 11:58Speaker 3: Every day four o'clock. They all look at the lineup.
- 12:00Speaker 4: Why should anybody Why should some kid win the shwin bike?
- 12:04Speaker 4: Who who rode to Yankee Stadium, who's twenty four years old?
- 12:08Speaker 4: Who happened to go to freaking buck noll And is
- 12:11Speaker 4: a data expert, Why should he know the freaking lineup
- 12:13Speaker 4: at four o'clock in the afternoon, for.
- 12:14Speaker 3: Crying out loud, they get it.
- 12:17Speaker 4: So Boone is the perfect messenger for what the Yankees
- 12:21Speaker 4: want to do. So they're not gonna I be shocked.
- 12:24Speaker 4: I don't know how bad they get off to a start.
- 12:26Speaker 4: I would be shocked that they got rid of him.
- 12:28Speaker 1: The key detail there, Taylor, and it's why he's a
- 12:30Speaker 1: Hall of famer, and it's why he's a legend.
- 12:32Speaker 2: Is the Shwin bike riding it over the.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Yankee stadium and he know w's just calling it a
- 12:38Speaker 1: schwind perfect.
- 12:40Speaker 3: Well, you know how all these front officers are.
- 12:42Speaker 4: They got these twenty three twenty four year old math
- 12:45Speaker 4: wizards who are trying to look at the computer all
- 12:47Speaker 4: day to figure out the lineup. That's not how you
- 12:49Speaker 4: figure out the lineup. And that's what they do. It
- 12:52Speaker 4: duves me crazy and the Yankees a big.
- 12:54Speaker 3: Gun his analytic nonsense.
- 12:56Speaker 4: Yankees haven't won a World championship in thirty years, but
- 12:58Speaker 4: they think the analyst is just beyond stupid.
- 13:02Speaker 3: Beyond stupid.
- 13:03Speaker 2: Dog.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Just back to the World Baseball Classic for a second.
- 13:06Speaker 1: Taylor was saying that Team Italy should really be America's
- 13:10Speaker 1: team because he's having a tricky time watching the World
- 13:13Speaker 1: Baseball Classic. When you say it's team Midaly, how about
- 13:16Speaker 1: a guy from Italy? I mean there, you guys are
- 13:19Speaker 1: from Anaheim and Passaic, New Jersey.
- 13:22Speaker 4: Well, you know the rule, if your parent has a passport,
- 13:25Speaker 4: one parent has a passport in that particular country, you
- 13:29Speaker 4: can play for the country.
- 13:30Speaker 3: It's beyond stupid. It's so it's it's kimmicky. It's kimmicky.
- 13:35Speaker 3: Now listen, let's be fair.
- 13:37Speaker 4: On the other end too, five million watch the US
- 13:41Speaker 4: game against Mexico on Fox, the highest rated game they've
- 13:46Speaker 4: had in the WBC. The NBA All Star Game, which
- 13:50Speaker 4: was sandwiched on a Sunday late perfect time slot around
- 13:54Speaker 4: the Olympics NBC early NBC at eight o'clock at night,
- 13:59Speaker 4: did eight million. So a baseball game in March did
- 14:03Speaker 4: five and a half. It peaked at nine o'clock at night.
- 14:06Speaker 4: And the NBA All Star Game when I did eight
- 14:08Speaker 4: and it was around NBC around the Olympics, which had
- 14:11Speaker 4: a great lead in and a great fottel through. So
- 14:14Speaker 4: people watching it watching, are you into it?
- 14:17Speaker 3: Will you watch Sunday night?
- 14:19Speaker 1: I mean, you know me, I'm not into that. I
- 14:20Speaker 1: mean I'm barely watching the World Series.
- 14:25Speaker 3: So you will not watch Schimes Sunday night underd.
- 14:28Speaker 2: I will watch it Sunday night. I will watch it.
- 14:30Speaker 1: That is something that will that will draw me to
- 14:33Speaker 1: my television to watch it a Sunday night, especially at
- 14:35Speaker 1: a time where there's not a ton going on.
- 14:37Speaker 2: You know, you got Selection Sunday, but after that.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Seven you got the Oscars you got thee but so
- 14:43Speaker 1: do you still care about the Oscar?
- 14:44Speaker 2: I don't care about the Oscar.
- 14:45Speaker 4: I don't care about it this year that much. I
- 14:47Speaker 4: don't love the movies. I agree with you on that.
- 14:49Speaker 4: I don't care about it too much this year. But
- 14:51Speaker 4: listen the World Bank. Uh, here's what they would tell
- 14:55Speaker 4: you at baseball Chris, is the World Baseball Classic more
- 14:59Speaker 4: interesting than a spring training game? And he answers, yes,
- 15:02Speaker 4: of course, Kimmicky, it's Kimmicky Dato five.
- 15:05Speaker 3: And how about Schooball is he in our house one day?
- 15:09Speaker 4: He pitches one day, doesn't I mean, does anybody really
- 15:12Speaker 4: care about school?
- 15:13Speaker 3: And then when we needed Schooble if.
- 15:14Speaker 4: You're a Tiger fan, the pitching of the seventh and
- 15:16Speaker 4: the eighth inning in Game five against Seattle last year
- 15:19Speaker 4: in the Divisional Series, he took himself out after six
- 15:23Speaker 4: and ninety eight pitches up one nothing and Finnigan comes
- 15:26Speaker 4: in and automatically gives up the run and the Tigers
- 15:29Speaker 4: get knocked out in the fourteenth dinning because scoober didn't
- 15:32Speaker 4: want to pitch more than ninety eight pitches, but you know,
- 15:35Speaker 4: and he wants to be involved in the World Baseball Classic,
- 15:38Speaker 4: but not be involved because he wants to get all
- 15:40Speaker 4: that US patriotism, but he doesn't want to screw up.
- 15:43Speaker 3: His free agent situation. There's so many things you don't
- 15:47Speaker 3: like about it.
- 15:47Speaker 4: There's another example, mand your mind one hundred percent, But
- 15:54Speaker 4: so you will. You will watch it, Tenda will watch
- 15:56Speaker 4: it through a little bit of schemes on Sunday night.
- 15:58Speaker 1: Yeah, but Doug, your point, This is all funny games
- 16:01Speaker 1: until someone likes school ball, blows out an arm, or
- 16:04Speaker 1: someone tears at ACL and misses a big contractor this
- 16:08Speaker 1: is the entirety of a Major League Baseball season, then
- 16:10Speaker 1: we'll see what happens from there.
- 16:12Speaker 4: Right, And I remember a DS that's happened a DS
- 16:15Speaker 4: that's right, heart his kneecap. I missed the whole year
- 16:18Speaker 4: for the Mets, hundred percent.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Dog.
- 16:21Speaker 5: USA took hockey from Canada. Any worry that Canada's approaching
- 16:25Speaker 5: tonight thinking that they could take America's pastime, and it's
- 16:28Speaker 5: kind of a revenge game for Canada.
- 16:29Speaker 4: You know, I hadn't thought of that, and you know
- 16:33Speaker 4: the idea that that was some unbelievable upset in the hockey.
- 16:36Speaker 4: I mean he I mean before the game the USA.
- 16:39Speaker 4: Stu Gotts knows this because he bet it before the game.
- 16:42Speaker 4: The US was minus one oh five, Canada was minus
- 16:47Speaker 4: one fifteen.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Really that's an upset. I mean, I mean that was.
- 16:51Speaker 4: A dead even game. That was a dead even tournament.
- 16:54Speaker 4: The idea that and not only that, it's we've beaten
- 16:57Speaker 4: him before. He beat him in the ninety six.
- 17:00Speaker 3: Out of the Cup.
- 17:01Speaker 4: When we beat him two games, the one with Richter
- 17:03Speaker 4: in the nets, winning game three in Montreal.
- 17:05Speaker 3: It's a huge, huge moment. So they like to say
- 17:08Speaker 3: it was forty six years since eighty.
- 17:10Speaker 4: Oh, come on, we made him in freaking ninety six
- 17:14Speaker 4: and then the Nation's Cup it went to the freaking
- 17:17Speaker 4: overtime before McDavid went and all everybody wants to.
- 17:20Speaker 3: Create this scenario.
- 17:23Speaker 4: We're like, this is the greatest etic moment in history.
- 17:27Speaker 3: I don't get up.
- 17:28Speaker 4: I don't get that eighties different. Yes, it was amateurs
- 17:31Speaker 4: against the USSR. Right personally, there's.
- 17:35Speaker 3: And there was a Cold war, dog, I don't get
- 17:37Speaker 3: that wrapped up in it.
- 17:39Speaker 2: Yes, and there was a war going on. There's a
- 17:41Speaker 2: cold war going on with the team that we were playing.
- 17:44Speaker 1: I had I had Kenny Albert on right after the game,
- 17:46Speaker 1: and I told Kenny his final call sure to be
- 17:49Speaker 1: Do you believe in minor upsets?
- 17:51Speaker 2: Yes?
- 17:54Speaker 5: I know.
- 17:54Speaker 4: He did a great job, by the way, great, great,
- 17:56Speaker 4: he was great. Did you get into that? Did you
- 17:58Speaker 4: watch all of ota know?
- 18:00Speaker 2: Oh?
- 18:00Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I watched it. I was glued. I watched
- 18:01Speaker 1: it with my father. I watched it with my brother.
- 18:05Speaker 3: Not that hockey. Did you watch this hockey?
- 18:08Speaker 5: No?
- 18:08Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this hockey is what I'm talking about. Oh
- 18:10Speaker 1: I really yes.
- 18:11Speaker 2: My brother was down here. We went to my dad's house.
- 18:14Speaker 1: The three of us watched it together, and it brought
- 18:16Speaker 1: us back, you know, mid eighties when we used to
- 18:19Speaker 1: sit around on the couch and watch sports together. It
- 18:22Speaker 1: was a great moment. But your larger point is right,
- 18:24Speaker 1: this is not the miracle on ice. These are two
- 18:27Speaker 1: very good hockey teams, and the United States happened to
- 18:30Speaker 1: win in overtime. And I can't stand the fact that
- 18:32Speaker 1: it goes to three on three when we get to overtime.
- 18:34Speaker 3: Oh so stupid. It's so stupid.
- 18:37Speaker 4: I mean, furthermore, they played the round robin and everybody
- 18:40Speaker 4: makes the knockout.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Round, right, Yes, I mean, hold on, now, we told.
- 18:44Speaker 3: A round Robin for a week and nobody gets knocked out.
- 18:48Speaker 4: That's ridiculous, sird A Minute's ah god, it's he just
- 18:53Speaker 4: sola and listen, I Am not going to make a
- 18:55Speaker 4: big deal about a ten day event and basically think
- 18:58Speaker 4: that the USA is better than can.
- 19:00Speaker 3: Other, even dead, even these two, these two squabs. Yeah,
- 19:03Speaker 3: the same thing goes with here.
- 19:04Speaker 4: You know what if the USA loses to the Dominican
- 19:09Speaker 4: Republic or to Canada, that or whomever they Japan that
- 19:13Speaker 4: somehow went out the best baseball country in the world.
- 19:16Speaker 4: If we wanted to have all our pitchers show up,
- 19:18Speaker 4: let's have schoobl Garrett Cole, Let's have them what will
- 19:21Speaker 4: win because we got the best pitching and it's all
- 19:23Speaker 4: about the pitchers, and we got the best pitchers for
- 19:25Speaker 4: klan out loud. You know, let's do it in the
- 19:27Speaker 4: middle of the summer and then go eight innings, right
- 19:30Speaker 4: and not go I not pitch sixty pitches. I mean,
- 19:32Speaker 4: there's too much they're trying to do. They're trying to
- 19:36Speaker 4: squeeze it in. The teams are nervous that the guys
- 19:39Speaker 4: are gonna get hurt. We gotta be careful about pitch
- 19:41Speaker 4: count because they're getting ready for a season. There's too
- 19:44Speaker 4: many things they got to do with this World Baseball class.
- 19:47Speaker 3: That cold drives me crazy.
- 19:48Speaker 1: Doggie will get you out of here in just a second.
- 19:50Speaker 1: We appreciate the time as Zoey's. Any issues with what
- 19:52Speaker 1: the Ravens did, you could say it was wrong, but
- 19:55Speaker 1: it's certainly within the rules.
- 19:57Speaker 2: What the Ravens did here with Max Crosby.
- 19:58Speaker 4: Well things I would say if if they knew Crosby
- 20:02Speaker 4: was coming off surgery. Yes, and they have a very
- 20:05Speaker 4: strict policy with their four team doctors, so right out
- 20:09Speaker 4: of the gate they should have bailed on even thinking
- 20:11Speaker 4: about making the traditions, and you had surgery number two.
- 20:14Speaker 3: I got to hear the GM tell me I'm gutted.
- 20:17Speaker 4: Oh come on, cut it nuts, you know, I mean,
- 20:20Speaker 4: if you want to be a cynic about it. They
- 20:22Speaker 4: realized the price went down for Hendrickson, and they realized
- 20:25Speaker 4: they could save the two picks, so they said, you
- 20:27Speaker 4: know what, you know, Crosby, it's fifty to fifty if
- 20:30Speaker 4: the knees. Okay, let's give Hendrickson less money and we'll
- 20:34Speaker 4: keep the picks. And then I got the GM out
- 20:36Speaker 4: there saying I'm gutted's come on, yeah, gut it.
- 20:39Speaker 3: That's a little strong.
- 20:41Speaker 2: On the phone. Yeah, what are the Raiders messed up
- 20:47Speaker 2: their whole off season? Planed it?
- 20:51Speaker 3: Sure did? It killed them?
- 20:52Speaker 1: Well, then you had Recidi with the gutted GM. You
- 20:55Speaker 1: had Resini reporting that he was the gutted GM was
- 20:57Speaker 1: on the phone with Trey Hendricks and aged while Max
- 21:01Speaker 1: Crosby was in their building.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Oh really, yes, wow, worse. That makes the Ravens look worse.
- 21:09Speaker 4: Listen, they've been a pretty solid organization as he used them,
- 21:13Speaker 4: and you know, pretty up above board. But this was
- 21:16Speaker 4: a little shaky. This was a little shaky. And again,
- 21:19Speaker 4: it wasn't like this injury came out of nowhere. He
- 21:21Speaker 4: had surgery in January. So they knew when they made
- 21:24Speaker 4: the trade that this could be dicey. They should not
- 21:26Speaker 4: even thought about it for crying out, yes, And then
- 21:29Speaker 4: you're bringing the idea that the price take goes down
- 21:31Speaker 4: for hendrickson little buyer's remorse, and you start to think
- 21:35Speaker 4: that maybe this was not above board from a Raven perspective.
- 21:38Speaker 1: To be s right, and they'll fall back on well,
- 21:40Speaker 1: it's within the league rules.
- 21:42Speaker 3: And yeah, I mean they didn't do technically they didn't.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Do anything wrong, right, but it just feels wrong.
- 21:46Speaker 4: Yes, it feels wrong, and I don't I hated to
- 21:49Speaker 4: comment on I feel gutted.
- 21:51Speaker 3: Nonsense, you don't feel guded, you know you boy? You
- 21:54Speaker 3: know what I mean? A good move here, I got
- 21:56Speaker 3: close with the hell out.
- 21:57Speaker 4: I say the two it's two picks, and all of
- 21:59Speaker 4: a sudden, I got Endrickson for less money.
- 22:01Speaker 3: I mean, that's what he should have said.
- 22:03Speaker 1: He's so good that he's high fiving with Bashati in
- 22:05Speaker 1: the office.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Good for you, got it.
- 22:10Speaker 3: Get that Diane Roussini some credit.
- 22:11Speaker 4: That's a good story that she came up aetition, does
- 22:13Speaker 4: a good job with that stuff.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Yeah, she's fantastic.
- 22:16Speaker 1: She was telling the story on the Rich Eisen Show,
- 22:18Speaker 1: and that's just it's mind blowing.
- 22:20Speaker 2: But it isn't. It isn't dog because we know this
- 22:23Speaker 2: business so well.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Like to me, the idea of DaCosta being all the
- 22:26Speaker 1: fun with Henderson's agents while Max Crosby's in his own
- 22:30Speaker 1: building getting a physical it should be surprising, but it's
- 22:33Speaker 1: the NFL, sports and big business knowing.
- 22:35Speaker 4: I didn't know that, and I didn't know she said
- 22:37Speaker 4: that on Eisen. Now that I know that I don't
- 22:40Speaker 4: give them the benefit of the doubt. Right now that
- 22:43Speaker 4: I know that, I mean that it was the same time.
- 22:45Speaker 4: I can't give the guy to the mensa doubt.
- 22:47Speaker 1: So they will tell you that they've always had the
- 22:49Speaker 1: idea of Hendrickson and Crosby lining upside, but that's never never.
- 22:52Speaker 4: Gonna spend sixty million dollars on two defensive ends. Come on,
- 22:56Speaker 4: I don't buy that they never gonna spend you know,
- 22:59Speaker 4: thirty min in a piece on two defensive ends and
- 23:02Speaker 4: give up there two picks in a process for the
- 23:05Speaker 4: next two years. I don't think they I don't think
- 23:07Speaker 4: the Ravens one is one thing, not just Stu. You're
- 23:12Speaker 4: close with Diana Rossini. You couldn't get Diana Rossini to
- 23:15Speaker 4: give that scoop on Mad Dog Show, throw them a bone.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Listen. If he had won the regular season bad I
- 23:19Speaker 2: would have gladly put it there.
- 23:20Speaker 4: I mean, yes, how are you doing on Fox? By
- 23:26Speaker 4: the way, has that worked out?
- 23:28Speaker 2: We're having fun?
- 23:29Speaker 1: It's uh, you know it's too As you pointed out
- 23:31Speaker 1: to me when I first told you about it, it's
- 23:32Speaker 1: it's it's a two hour sprint.
- 23:35Speaker 2: There's not enough time to get anything off the ground.
- 23:37Speaker 3: So they know, do they know you don't watch any sports.
- 23:40Speaker 1: They're starting to figure it out though.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Funny buddy, But how's your golf game?
- 23:50Speaker 2: The golf game is good? How about you? How about yours?
- 23:52Speaker 3: I played you know, I played Pine Tree in Point
- 23:54Speaker 3: and Beach. Have you played that course before?
- 23:56Speaker 1: I had played pine Tree once? Nice course, yes, nice
- 23:59Speaker 1: course hard?
- 23:59Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, it's much harder than your track than that
- 24:03Speaker 4: dog track there at the Deer Park School.
- 24:06Speaker 2: I didn't tell you to get him there.
- 24:08Speaker 3: Fifty fifty nine hundred yards of the slope of one
