4:41
Speaker 1: and your questions and our answers. So if you want
4:43
Speaker 1: to send a question in hashtag ask Ben, that'll be
4:47
Speaker 1: coming up a little bit later in the hour. Our
4:49
Speaker 1: lead this hour from baseball, where an NFL player, tight
4:53
Speaker 1: end Travis Kelcey. I'm heard he I've heard he's kind
4:56
Speaker 1: of a big deal. He plays for the Kansas City
4:59
Speaker 1: football team. Yeah, the Kansas City football team. I think
5:03
Speaker 1: they're called the Chiefs, and the Travis Kelsey has decided
5:06
Speaker 1: I've made a lot of money. I would like to
5:07
Speaker 1: spend some of that money, so I'm gonna purchase a
5:09
Speaker 1: minority share a little slice. It'll slice of the team
5:15
Speaker 1: that happens to play there in his hometown, the Cleveland Guardians,
5:20
Speaker 1: the team formerly known as the Indians when he was
5:23
Speaker 1: growing up. Kelsey is set to marry some famous singer.
5:26
Speaker 1: I think her name's Taylor or something like that. Yeah,
5:29
Speaker 1: this summer, did I see? I was reading the tabloids
5:31
Speaker 1: the other day. I think they said they say July.
5:35
Speaker 1: Is it July third? Is that the date? I read
5:37
Speaker 1: in one of the tabloids, the Daily Mail or People
5:40
Speaker 1: or what I forget, Well, one of the tabloids said
5:43
Speaker 1: it's July third. Anyway, it's gonna happen sometime in the
5:45
Speaker 1: next couple of months, Taylor Swift and Travis kelce And
5:49
Speaker 1: that has led to what you know, you think you know,
5:54
Speaker 1: you don't, Well, you might know. Yeah, there's an obvious
5:57
Speaker 1: connecting of the dots. Well, if if Travis Kelcey is
6:01
Speaker 1: going to marry Taylor Swift and then that happens and
6:07
Speaker 1: he owns part of a baseball team, well yeah, put
6:11
Speaker 1: the jigsaw puzzle together. So that is a good jumping
6:15
Speaker 1: on point. Let us discuss. So the question is it
6:18
Speaker 1: true will Taylor Swift automatically the most famous woman in
6:23
Speaker 1: the world will she automatically become a part owner of
6:28
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Guardians through marriage? Is this going to happen
6:32
Speaker 1: to Travis Kelsey? So I've got Hogwarts, Turtle Wax, and
6:38
Speaker 1: sweet Science, and we will combine all of these things
6:45
Speaker 1: together and we're gonna rattle some cages, is what we're
6:48
Speaker 1: gonna do. That's because there we go eeny meanie miny
6:51
Speaker 1: mo which cage should we rattle? So, first of all,
6:55
Speaker 1: to answer the question, is it true Taylor Swift will
6:59
Speaker 1: attically when they're married here get to own part of
7:03
Speaker 1: the baseball team. That would be Can I get an
7:06
Speaker 1: n and an O police? Taylor Swift is not becoming
7:11
Speaker 1: an MLB owner unfortunately for baseball. And I know Rob Manford,
7:14
Speaker 1: the people at baseball are very upset because they are
7:16
Speaker 1: really annoyed. They're not seen as cool. The people at
7:20
Speaker 1: baseball will have to deal with this. This is not Hogwarts.
7:23
Speaker 1: Inheritance and marriage does not grant you a franchise and
7:28
Speaker 1: a wand it does not happen to Major League Baseball
7:31
Speaker 1: wants this really badly, like they're practically writing some fan
7:35
Speaker 1: fiction and the paperwork though, says again ix Nay on
7:41
Speaker 1: the Taylor ownership A And if you look at the
7:45
Speaker 1: fine print here, Taylor's Taylor Swift's future husband, Travis Kelsey
7:50
Speaker 1: bought the steak that's Travis t R A v I S,
7:56
Speaker 1: not the Swifties, not the Eras tour t R A
8:00
Speaker 1: Avis Travis. So this isn't a joint checking account. That's
8:05
Speaker 1: not how any of this works. And they only the
8:09
Speaker 1: only automatic part of this according to some research and
8:13
Speaker 1: what I've known. I don't know how much of this
8:15
Speaker 1: is in the mainstream media or not. We're not part
8:17
Speaker 1: of the mainstream media, So I'll take this for what
8:19
Speaker 1: it's worth. The only automatic thing here is going to
8:22
Speaker 1: be a prenup with a capital P. And she's the
8:27
Speaker 1: one that wears the pants in this relationship. She's she's
8:29
Speaker 1: worth billions and he's worth millions. So these agreements commonly
8:36
Speaker 1: keep the assets, the pre marital assets, as separate property.
8:41
Speaker 1: The guardians are not getting a pop star. They're getting
8:45
Speaker 1: a guy that grew up in Cleveland Heights with a lawyer.
8:49
Speaker 1: That's what they're getting, right. The thing that baseball can
8:52
Speaker 1: hope and they can prey on it and all that
8:55
Speaker 1: stuff and get some magic beans. The thing they can
8:59
Speaker 1: hope for is that Taylor Swift ends up attending some games.
9:02
Speaker 1: Maybe she'll mention the team in a song. You know,
9:05
Speaker 1: she's I'm just writing songs right now, so she'll mention
9:07
Speaker 1: the Guardians of the Galaxy. And she said, well, the
9:10
Speaker 1: Guardians of Baseball. That's it now. Granted her attending games
9:14
Speaker 1: would be the biggest marketing win, since well, she attends anything,
9:18
Speaker 1: it's a marketing win regardless until then, all right, till then,
9:22
Speaker 1: she remains the only person loosely connected to Major League
9:28
Speaker 1: Baseball other than Shohe Otani with actual global reachio. Everyone
9:33
Speaker 1: else in baseball other than Altani does not have global reach.
9:36
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge, good player doesn't have global reach, right, anyone else?
9:40
Speaker 1: You think, Bobby Witt Junior, some of the young stars,
9:42
Speaker 1: the next wave of stars in baseball. Mike Trout has
9:45
Speaker 1: been around forever. These guys don't have global appeal obviously. Otani, Yeah,
9:50
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, yeah, could she play for the team? Could she? Yeah?
9:55
Speaker 1: All right? Secondly to New York, where the miserable match
9:58
Speaker 1: actually won a game. Congratulations a bit the Cincinnati Reds.
10:02
Speaker 1: There's a bad defensive play there by La de la
10:05
Speaker 1: Cruz I was watching some of this game. So the
10:08
Speaker 1: Mets are sticking up Major League Baseball, National League all
10:11
Speaker 1: that stuff now. Recently when they were getting smoked by
10:14
Speaker 1: Cincinnati in a previous game this week, the New York
10:18
Speaker 1: starting pitcher guy named David Peterson, who's earned run average
10:23
Speaker 1: I believe is north of five this year. Well, not
10:26
Speaker 1: only is he bad in terms of er, but David
10:29
Speaker 1: Peterson failed to back up home plate. That's a no no.
10:33
Speaker 1: There was an air and throw by Boba Schett, who
10:36
Speaker 1: sucks defensively, and that allowed the Reds in that game
10:39
Speaker 1: a couple nights ago, to take an extra base on
10:42
Speaker 1: a double and all that stuff. So this led to
10:44
Speaker 1: a meltdown. Not by Carlos Mendoza, No, No, No. Nineteen
10:50
Speaker 1: eighty six met starting pitcher. He's a darling man, Ron Darling,
10:55
Speaker 1: Ron Darling, and he directed his rage towards Carlos Mendoza
10:59
Speaker 1: and the coaching staff while broadcasting the game. So that
11:04
Speaker 1: really tells me, he said, when the pitcher didn't cover
11:06
Speaker 1: the mountains has been going on for a while, says,
11:08
Speaker 1: it tells me that the coaches really don't have as
11:10
Speaker 1: much influence on the players as they think they have.
11:14
Speaker 1: Because someone should rip someone at some point, but they don't,
11:21
Speaker 1: Ron Darling complained, because they don't want to upset anyone.
11:26
Speaker 1: You have to back up bases every single time. Now,
11:29
Speaker 1: Then the Mets houseman, broadcaster Gary Cone stepped in and said, well,
11:34
Speaker 1: don't you think that'll be a dressed post game, as
11:37
Speaker 1: he tried to defend and soften and sugarcoat the rant
11:41
Speaker 1: by Ron Darling. Now, Darling then continued, he ranted more,
11:44
Speaker 1: saying it will not be addressed the way it should
11:47
Speaker 1: be addressed. Darling said, because if it was addressed, he said,
11:53
Speaker 1: it wouldn't happen. It happens every game. Darling continued, we
11:58
Speaker 1: just don't point it out. Close quote all right, question,
12:02
Speaker 1: how does Ron Darling's recent rant about the Mets coaching
12:06
Speaker 1: staff and Carlos Mendoza and the lack of accountability strike you?
12:11
Speaker 1: So a couple things. It's a self incrimination because Ron
12:14
Speaker 1: Darling's admitting that on many nights, the Mets broadcasters do
12:18
Speaker 1: not report on the frailties of the Mets players. So
12:22
Speaker 1: Ron Darling's admitting they're not really doing their job. They're
12:25
Speaker 1: not doing it because it happens all the time, and
12:28
Speaker 1: they don't talk about it all the time. And look,
12:30
Speaker 1: Ron Darling didn't just walk into the Mets locker room, clubhouse,
12:34
Speaker 1: whatever with a blowtorch. He performed a long overdue exorcism.
12:40
Speaker 1: He finally said what pretty much every die hard Mets
12:44
Speaker 1: fan in Queens and out on Long Island has been
12:47
Speaker 1: screaming into their steering wheels when they've paid attention to
12:50
Speaker 1: this team. And Darling is paid essentially this year to
12:54
Speaker 1: polish turds. That's what the Mets are, a bunch of turds.
12:58
Speaker 1: And he ran out of turtle wax, and he ran
13:00
Speaker 1: out of patience. And while the house is on fire,
13:03
Speaker 1: the manager, How did this guy keep his job? How
13:05
Speaker 1: did Carlos Mendoza not get whacked the way the Mets
13:08
Speaker 1: have played the first couple months of the season anyway, Yeah,
13:11
Speaker 1: serving war milk and given the players blanky. So that's
13:14
Speaker 1: Carlos Mendoza and the Mets aren't just bad, they're coddle.
13:20
Speaker 1: Mendoza is the chief happiness Officer, the CCHO. And there
13:24
Speaker 1: is an infestation of this that is widespread in big sporting.
13:31
Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna do old guy radio, I'm gonna complain,
13:34
Speaker 1: and this is therapeutic for me. And if you're younger
13:37
Speaker 1: and you were raised soft, I get it. I understand.
13:40
Speaker 1: I wasn't raised that way. I was raised with accountability.
13:43
Speaker 1: I was raised with do your job. Shut up, You're
13:45
Speaker 1: not a victim. That's my generation. You know, we probably
13:49
Speaker 1: were raised improperly by our parents, but that's how we
13:51
Speaker 1: were raised. In the NBA the last couple of weeks,
13:55
Speaker 1: Kenny Atkinson, while his team blew a twenty two point
14:00
Speaker 1: with eight minutes to go in the fourth quarter, he
14:03
Speaker 1: praised James Harden's defense that literally killed the Cavaliers. He
14:09
Speaker 1: then praised him after the game. You had Piston's head
14:12
Speaker 1: coach JB. Bickerstaff, whose team hosted a Game seven and
14:17
Speaker 1: got run off the court by thirty one points in Motown,
14:21
Speaker 1: and then claimed that it was not a disappointment that
14:25
Speaker 1: his team that was favored lost by thirty one points
14:28
Speaker 1: at home and gave up. And all I'm saying from
14:31
Speaker 1: the bully pulpit, enough with the warm fuzzies. Can we
14:35
Speaker 1: stop with the warm fuzzies. Can we call some people out?
14:38
Speaker 1: Can we have accountability here? And these teams need a
14:42
Speaker 1: cold shower and a mirror, And every time they lose.
14:47
Speaker 1: Many of these teams they hit seven to eleven for
14:49
Speaker 1: another slurpy flavored excuse. It's a slurpfest, is what it is.
14:54
Speaker 1: Ron Darling basically told them to grow a pair, and
14:57
Speaker 1: he wasn't whispering, and I love it. You know, time
15:00
Speaker 1: to stop managing feelings and start demanding a pulse. And
15:04
Speaker 1: if the players can't handle it, if the players are
15:07
Speaker 1: such you know what, then get rid of them and
15:10
Speaker 1: find some guys that can handle it and realize. This
15:14
Speaker 1: is when I started covering baseball in sports as a
15:17
Speaker 1: radio locker room guy, which is one of the worst
15:19
Speaker 1: jobs you can have, because the players hate you and
15:22
Speaker 1: everything stinks. They don't want to talk to you. And
15:25
Speaker 1: I was there. I'd put microphones in front of some
15:27
Speaker 1: of the biggest a hole managers and coaches of all
15:30
Speaker 1: time and they would sit there and read the Riot
15:33
Speaker 1: Act to their team. And then I'd go into the
15:35
Speaker 1: locker room like an evil media schmuck, and I'd say,
15:38
Speaker 1: you know, your coach said this about you, what do
15:40
Speaker 1: you say? And then they would they would have to
15:42
Speaker 1: answer that, and they didn't like it. And what they
15:46
Speaker 1: did is they did answer it. A lot of the guys,
15:47
Speaker 1: and then as soon as the mic turned off, they'd
15:49
Speaker 1: MF the coach or whatever. That's how it was done.
15:52
Speaker 1: Now they don't even get to that point. Meanwhile, to
15:55
Speaker 1: the boardroom we go. So we are told that Major
15:59
Speaker 1: League Baseball players fired their opening salvo to the owners
16:03
Speaker 1: in what is expected to be a very long and painful,
16:05
Speaker 1: very long and painful labor negotiation which many doom and
16:09
Speaker 1: gloom people are expecting to wash out the twenty twenty
16:11
Speaker 1: seven season. And so they're asking for expanded free agency
16:15
Speaker 1: salary arbitration rights to be limited, along with almost doubling
16:21
Speaker 1: the Major League Baseball minimum salary and increasing the money
16:26
Speaker 1: high revenue teams share with less wealthy clubs. They also
16:29
Speaker 1: want a salarycap floor essentially, So this is a day
16:33
Speaker 1: before the owners of Baseball are expected to make a
16:37
Speaker 1: salary cap Later today, the owners are expected to make
16:40
Speaker 1: their salary cap proposal. I'll be sleeping, I'll see it
16:43
Speaker 1: when I wake up. The union outlined the initial economic
16:47
Speaker 1: proposals during this bargaining session that they're trying to get
16:51
Speaker 1: this thing started. And so this happened in the Manhattan
16:54
Speaker 1: Bubble in Midtown Manhattan at the players Association's office, so
16:59
Speaker 1: it included what it called a competitive integrity tax that
17:04
Speaker 1: sounds like a bunch of bull crap lawyers made up
17:07
Speaker 1: that would penalize teams dropping below a payroll floor. So
17:10
Speaker 1: they want to have a floor, and they called for
17:13
Speaker 1: the luxury tax threshold to rise to three hundred million
17:17
Speaker 1: next year. Now, the labor contract expires December first, which
17:21
Speaker 1: means after that there'll be no free agency, no hotstove league,
17:24
Speaker 1: everything will shut down. Baseball is planning a lockout of
17:29
Speaker 1: the players. Management has been putting a war chest together
17:34
Speaker 1: for a couple of years to save money. So if
17:35
Speaker 1: the players, the owners have more money. So the players
17:39
Speaker 1: have vowed that they would rather die than accept the salarycap.
17:43
Speaker 1: So that's where we are. Question what did the players
17:48
Speaker 1: accomplish by releasing publicly they're opening labor proposal to the
17:53
Speaker 1: owners of Major League Baseball. So the long answer is nothing, nothing.
18:01
Speaker 1: The union knows that this proposal is d A, it's
18:05
Speaker 1: dead on arrival, and every man, woman and child knows
18:08
Speaker 1: that this is what's known as a set up move.
18:11
Speaker 1: If you've ever studied the sweet science, and I am
18:13
Speaker 1: not in the whole UFC thing, I'll watch it. I
18:15
Speaker 1: a buddy of mine love's UFC and I'll watch. I
18:18
Speaker 1: was raised with boxing, big boxing matches, right, that was
18:21
Speaker 1: my thing, so the sweet science, right, And you know,
18:24
Speaker 1: early in the fight there's that feeling out process, and
18:27
Speaker 1: you know, jab a little bit, you know, you do
18:30
Speaker 1: the old the okie doke, you know, sandbag and all
18:34
Speaker 1: those things. So the first punch, think of it like this,
18:37
Speaker 1: in a twelve round fight, there's a little jab, you know,
18:40
Speaker 1: kind of get your footing underneath you, kind of get
18:42
Speaker 1: into the fight a little bit. Keep in mind, a
18:44
Speaker 1: salary cap floor won't do what the players think it
18:47
Speaker 1: will do to fix the sport. I'm gonna tell you
18:49
Speaker 1: right now, salary cap floor, what you're gonna have is
18:52
Speaker 1: teams like the Pirates and the Athletics and the Rays,
18:56
Speaker 1: and that's those are gonna be the teams that Teams
18:58
Speaker 1: like the Dodgers and the Red well not the Red Sox,
19:01
Speaker 1: so they don't spend a lot of moneymore, but the Dodgers,
19:03
Speaker 1: the Yankees, the Mets will try to just pawn off
19:06
Speaker 1: bad contracts on these penny pitching teams and they will
19:10
Speaker 1: get to the whatever that salary cap floor is. They
19:13
Speaker 1: will just be able to put their nose and mouth
19:15
Speaker 1: right above the water and that's it. So it's not
19:18
Speaker 1: gonna be like these teams are. It seems gonna be, Oh,
19:20
Speaker 1: we're gonna spend a lot of money. No, And this
19:23
Speaker 1: isn't collective bargaining. It's really collective branding. They're not negotiating
19:28
Speaker 1: the players with the owners. They're negotiating with you, like
19:32
Speaker 1: not you, the casual fan that it really doesn't pay
19:35
Speaker 1: attention to, kind of scroll their phones and all that stuff. However,
19:37
Speaker 1: this is the court of public opinion, and the jury
19:40
Speaker 1: is already wearing the merch of the billionaires who own
19:44
Speaker 1: the teams. The public has been brainwashed. It's very odd.
19:48
Speaker 1: In every other center, nobody roots for Walmart. They root
19:51
Speaker 1: for the employees. Right in sports, you root. You've been
19:54
Speaker 1: brainwashed over the years to root for the oldigarks and
19:57
Speaker 1: viewing billionaires as underdogs. Millionaires versus billionaires. I hate all
20:02
Speaker 1: of them. Uh, you pick billionaires like its instinct and
20:06
Speaker 1: you just have to do it. So the players are
20:07
Speaker 1: just planting flags for the next battle in the war. Ultimately,
20:14
Speaker 1: it's not about competitiveness. It's about who gets a bigger yacht. Slip.
20:19
Speaker 1: That's what this is about. And the owners don't care
20:21
Speaker 1: about the sport. They care about the spreadsheet. They want
20:25
Speaker 1: to make the asset more valuable. And so welcome to
20:28
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball's labor talks, where everyone's Richie Mickrich, No
20:34
Speaker 1: one seems to be all that happy, and nothing ever
20:36

27:37
Speaker 1: Let's go to Sean Is. He's in beautiful Newport Beach,
27:42
Speaker 1: the great Places on God's Green Earth. Hello, Seawan, Welcome,
27:46
Speaker 1: Hello Ben.
27:47
Speaker 8: How are you tonight?
27:49
Speaker 1: Sean? If I was any better, I would be an Angel,
27:53
Speaker 1: but not a Anaheim or La Angel or California Angel
27:57
Speaker 1: because they stink.
27:59
Speaker 8: Yeah. I went to Angel game a couple of weeks so,
28:01
Speaker 8: maybe a month ago, and it was quite boring. Yeah,
28:05
Speaker 8: you know, I'm a basketball fan and a football fan anyway,
28:08
Speaker 8: so but it was a nice day. So, Hey, what
28:11
Speaker 8: happened to Angry Bill. I haven't heard from him in
28:13
Speaker 8: a long time. I haven't heard him get on the radio.
28:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Angry Bill had some health problems. He did
28:19
Speaker 1: call in last week though he hasn't called in a
28:21
Speaker 1: long time. He called in last week and he sounded better. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
28:28
Speaker 1: He's not a regular caller anymore. And he called in.
28:32
Speaker 1: And it's great because normally when guys are going through
28:35
Speaker 1: health problems, I try to know, you know, I feel
28:36
Speaker 1: bad for you and awesome, and I tried to do
28:38
Speaker 1: that with Angry Bill and he was still a total schmuck.
28:40
Speaker 1: So he even even though he's not doing well, he's
28:42
Speaker 1: still an a hole. So that's good.
28:45
Speaker 8: Well, there you go. What do you think of this,
28:47
Speaker 8: Fernando Mendoza. Is he going to bring any kind of
28:50
Speaker 8: any kind of sensibility to the to that wonderful franchise.
28:55
Speaker 1: The Silver and Black, the Raiders. You're dating yourself if
28:58
Speaker 1: you're a Raider fan, because you're remember when they were
29:00
Speaker 1: good and they have been good in a million years.
29:02
Speaker 8: Absolutely, yeah, I'm not.
29:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I'm not optimistic. I'll put it that way.
29:08
Speaker 1: I I'll believe it when I see it. With Fernanda Mendolz,
29:11
Speaker 1: he seems very average to me. Now you can coach
29:14
Speaker 1: him up and supposedly we'll see if Kobiak's as good
29:17
Speaker 1: as advertised. I know the Seahawk fans think he was
29:19
Speaker 1: great and wonderful and all that stuff, so we'll see
29:21
Speaker 1: if that's the reality. I I'm not real optimistic. He
29:25
Speaker 1: was not highly rated coming into college. He really didn't
29:29
Speaker 1: do much anything in college until until the end there
29:31
Speaker 1: in Indiana, and then he lit the world on fire.
29:33
Speaker 1: So well, I'm I'm and there's not a lot of playmakers.
29:37
Speaker 1: You're a Raider fan, so you know better than me.
29:38
Speaker 1: There's not a lot there at the wide, you know.
29:41
Speaker 8: As LaVar Arrington says, it's the culture. One man can't
29:45
Speaker 8: change that.
29:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, generally that's that's a problem. So anyway, thank you,
29:51
Speaker 1: all right, there you go, all right, thank you for
29:53
Speaker 1: calling it newby Night. Right there to newby Night's Sean
29:56
Speaker 1: in Newport Beach. Let's go to Craig, who's hanging out
30:00
Speaker 1: in Utah. What's going on? Craig? Welcome Craig. It's new
30:05
Speaker 1: me Night, all new callers. There he is, I hear
30:07
Speaker 1: his voice. How you doing today, Ben Craig. If I
30:12
Speaker 1: was any better, I would be the guy working at
30:14
Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz Team shop at the Salt Lake City Airport,
30:18
Speaker 1: unless I wouldn't because I've never seen I've been to
30:20
Speaker 1: Salt Lake a few times at the airport, I've never
30:22
Speaker 1: seen anyone in the store buying any Utah Jazz merchandise.
30:26
Speaker 9: Oh just wait, next year, her year. That's what we've
30:28
Speaker 9: been saying for about ten years.
30:30
Speaker 1: So yes, it's good to know Danny Ainge is up
30:33
Speaker 1: to his old tricks. A little hoarding draft picks. That's good.
30:35
Speaker 1: He did that in Boston. It did work for the Celtics,
30:37
Speaker 1: but we'll see if it works for the Jazz, so
30:39
Speaker 1: who knows.
30:40
Speaker 9: Anyways, Ben, I just wanted to call tonight to apologize
30:43
Speaker 9: to you.
30:45
Speaker 1: What have you done.
30:47
Speaker 9: I am a life long Raiders fan and I'm also
30:50
Speaker 9: an Angel fan. From the last call kind of hurt
30:53
Speaker 9: me trashing on both of my teams. But anyways, I
30:57
Speaker 9: moved to The Night Shift about a year ago and
30:59
Speaker 9: you did a segment I'm Pete Carroll and Gino Smith
31:02
Speaker 9: and you were talking all this trash about Geno Smith
31:05
Speaker 9: and I was listening. Is one of the first I
31:07
Speaker 9: had listened to the show, and I was thinking, this
31:10
Speaker 9: guy has no idea what he's talking about. Geno Smith
31:13
Speaker 9: is analytically a top fifteen quarterback. And then Geno Smith
31:18
Speaker 9: was god awful. And I've been listening to the show
31:22
Speaker 9: ever since, and I'm sorry that I ever doubted you,
31:25
Speaker 9: and I love the show. Keep it up, you do
31:26
Speaker 9: an amazing job.
31:28
Speaker 1: Well, you're very kind, and it's very polite of you
31:30
Speaker 1: to apologize. You didn't have to do that. That's right,
31:32
Speaker 1: you see that, Coop. My takes are one hundred percent.
31:35
Speaker 1: I never get to take wrong. I want more take respect,
31:39
Speaker 1: and Craig is giving me the proper amount of respect
31:41
Speaker 1: I need to craft these takes in the middle of
31:44
Speaker 1: the night. Thank you, Craig. I appreciate that means, let's
31:48
Speaker 1: never mind. What were you gonna say? Well, you know, what,
31:53
Speaker 1: are you guys getting annoyed? Everyone's being nice? What do
31:56
Speaker 1: you call him?
31:56
Speaker 7: They?
31:57
Speaker 1: No, No, that's not a brown No some knee pass.
32:01
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? I would never This is respect.
32:07
Speaker 7: I also think what he said proves that your takes
32:09
Speaker 7: are one hundred percent. I don't know how you got
32:12
Speaker 7: to that.
32:13
Speaker 1: Well, he could have said one hundred and ten percent.
32:15
Speaker 1: He was not pandering to me at all. By the way,
32:19
Speaker 1: he was not trying to appeal to my emotions. It
32:22
Speaker 1: was It was absolutely wonderful. So I don't know why
32:25
Speaker 1: you guys. Everyon's getting upset with me now because people
32:27

35:30
Speaker 7: Right, we're gonna start off with a question from Milkman Mike.
35:33
Speaker 1: Hi, Milkman Mike.
35:35
Speaker 7: He wants to know do you prefer pre made chocolate milk?
35:38
Speaker 7: Nestley Quick was that? Was that what it was called?
35:41
Speaker 8: Yea, yeah?
35:42
Speaker 7: Or Hershey chocolate syrup.
35:45
Speaker 1: Yeah. So when I was a kid, we went with
35:47
Speaker 1: the nest Lees. Every once in a while we got
35:49
Speaker 1: the Hirshey's. If my parents made a extra money that week,
35:51
Speaker 1: we'd get the Hirshe's. But we were Nestle's and Nestley's
35:54
Speaker 1: Quick powder, and I hate I didn't like drinking milk
35:59
Speaker 1: as a kid, and so my mom convinced me that
36:02
Speaker 1: chocolate milk was amazing. It was okay, you know what
36:05
Speaker 1: it was a rare treat was the strawberry. That was
36:07
Speaker 1: like a special thing, and that was extra chemicals in
36:10
Speaker 1: the strawberry. And we didn't get that very often. Ey
36:12
Speaker 1: once in a while we get the strawberry. I thought, well,
36:14
Speaker 1: that's really good. Mom thinks I must have done something
36:15
Speaker 1: good to get the strawberry. So, yeah, Lorena, I agree.
36:19
Speaker 6: Strawberry is that little extra treat. But when it comes
36:22
Speaker 6: to chocolate milk, I prefer Dush style quad dairy chocolate
36:27
Speaker 6: milk first, and then I prefer nest quick, and then
36:31
Speaker 6: I prefer chocolate syrup.
36:33
Speaker 1: Very bouge, very boogie.
36:36
Speaker 5: You gotta stir it with a spoon.
36:40
Speaker 1: Cool.
36:41
Speaker 7: Not a fan of chocolate milk, can never have been, it,
36:45
Speaker 7: says a lot.
36:45
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, what's next?
36:49

Speaker 7: in your lifetime? Traffic tickets or lottery tickets?
37:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's got to be traffic tickets. Uh, well, traffic

37:10
Speaker 1: and I'd park on the street and then i'd have
37:12
Speaker 1: to leave by a certain time, but I didn't leave.

37:19
Speaker 1: been a few years. But yeah, definitely that. I don't know.

Speaker 6: television shows bug.
38:49
Speaker 7: Me these days.
