  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: So here we are together again through the power of
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: overnight talk radio. And we've been doing this job a
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: couple of minutes, and I have learned over the years
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: that we are good for at least three to five
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: tabloid stories a year that will drive the conversation. And
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: this night different than all other nights because we have
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: a hum dinger of a tabloid story, a doozy, a
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: doozy from the New York Post. All Right, we're all
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: gonna need a shower when we get down with this, Okay,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: so get ready, get some soap, get a towel. We're
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: a little hot water. We're gonna need a shower. So
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the New York Post posting some photos because that's what
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: they do, and they have photos involving an NFL insider
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: and a head coach. So I have you heard about this?
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: You know, even our blind guy saw it. You can't
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: unsee it. Perhaps not so page six, which is the
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: tabloid part. Well, the whole New York Post is a
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: top I love the There's only a few newspapers left
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: that are in business, and like the New York Post,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: the Daily Mail in London is really good. There's a
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: bunch of tabloids in London. There's not very many newspapers
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: around anymore in the US that are worth your time,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: but this is one and it's a it's quite the story.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: So it involves an NFL head coach and an insider,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: and this is some serious inside reporting. So if you
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: missed it, the photos, very steamy photos that appear to
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: show New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel, New England Patriots
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: coach Mike Rabel and the athletics top NFL insider holding
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: hands and hugging at a luxurious hotel. Yes, Mike Rabel
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: is the coach of the Patriots. Course for some'm in
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. And Diana Russini, who has the title
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: as quote senior NFL Insider at the Old Gray Ladies
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: sports section The Athletic and they were spotted recently at
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: a boutique resort in Sedona, Arizona. Now that's important, and
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you why a little bit later. I'll tell
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you why it was important. But before we get to that,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: let's give you a little more information here. So the
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: pair who are I believe, according to the New York
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Post both married to other peace people. They had a
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: nice breakfast on the patio. That sounds nice. They had
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: a nice breakfast about ten thirty in the morning out
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: there at the patio. They then spent a leisurely hour
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: according to the New York Post or so together at
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the pool, lounging side by side in the hot tub.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: That sounds good. That sounds like a good day. Vrabel
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: and Russini the NFL Insider again that evening on a
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: private roof top bungalow all day thing, huh that features
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: glass walls, panoramic views of the famed red rock formations
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: in Sedona, Araason. A beautiful, beautiful part of the country.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: There not that far from flag Staff, I believe, if
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I'm right on that, I know I've been there in
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the past. So both Russini and Rabel passionately pushed back
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: against any kind of claim that there was some they
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: were going to funky town, you know, you know what
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. They claim they were just friends. According to
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: a statements say they simply the friends were there and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: they were just weren't not visible. They claimed they were
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: this boutique hotel with friends. Just the photos were of
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: them and no one else who was with him. All right,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: discuss the question. You got Patriots coach Mike Rabel, NFL
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: insider Diana Russini seen lounging in the hot top in
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the pool, the rooftop bungalow having breakfast. Now, is this
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: going to blow up? Or has it already blown up?
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: So we've got number six special Switzerland and twin cities.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: How does that relate to this. Well, we'll put them
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: all together and we're going to make movie style buttered popcorn.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Because this is one of those you just got to
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: take the buttered popcorn. You just got to go with it.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: It's that it's that good. So a to answer the question,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: is this going to blow up? Or has it already
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: blown up Mike Vrabel and the NFL insider. You see,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: if you look out on the horizon there, you can
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: see that's it looks like a mushroom. That's a mushroom cloud.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: It is what that is. Mat So where they playing
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Marco polo in the pool, the rooftop bungalow. They were
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: just having a good time there, like there was spring
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: bacon cabo, so good. So this is red meat in
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the lions Den. And this, of course has led to
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: a feeding frenzy. A feeding frenzy is what this is.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: People seemingly cannot get enough already. Every morsel, every morsel
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: being chewed and devoured like a delicious molten lava cake.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: You can't leave any morsel of a molten lava cake
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: on the plate. You gotta eat the whole thing. Tabloid fodder,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: not cannon fodder, tabloid fodder, which is even better. So
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: you've got the pull side, lounging sunset, hugging, a little
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: accidental dancing. Yeah, that was the core of the post.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Now I've seen this movie. I've been dragged to a
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: few rom coms over the years, and I believe it's
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: not called Just Friends. It's called We'll explain later. We'll
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: explain later. So welcome to the restaurant. Believe it's called
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the Tady Tasty Noodle House and Vrabel, and it would
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: appear based on these photos minutes long investigation of Rabel
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: and Diana Russini, they were ordering the number six special. Now,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: what is the number six special at the Tasty Noodle House?
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: That would be the plate of canoodle because there was
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: some canoodling going on here. Does not seem benign, does
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: not seem benign. So the neutron bomb has gone kerflowy,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: it would appear. Now we're just watching the fallout from
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that mushroom cloud drift across the NFL like toxic confetti.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: And don't give me the just friends damage to I'm
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: not buying it. And if this had happened at a
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: resort in Arizona, like in Phoenix, because of the NFL,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: this happened, I believe right around the end of the
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: NFL league meetings. You said, well, it was just they
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: happened to be at the same hotel that happened, But
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: this was a boutique hotel of far removed from that location,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: which would indicate there was some planning that went on
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: for this to happen. I don't think it was a
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: quinkie dink you know what I'm saying. Anyway, that's just
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: my opinion. Can't sue me for my opinion. You can't.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Now you won't win. And so there you go. And
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: by the way, I have friends too, I just don't
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: slow dance with them and hang out in pools with
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: them and all that, unless certainly not at sunset. I
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: definitely don't do that at Sunset'll be at a wedding.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: There's an open bar involved in that, so that doesn't
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: really count in all that anyway. Now, continuing the theme
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: of the hour, the CD tabloid fallout of NFL coach
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: NFL insider caught at a boutique bungalow. All right, so
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the fallout from the tabloid photos continues to reverberate around
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the pigskin echo chambers, bouncing bouncy, bouncy, bouncy, bouncy bouncy.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: So the question toss up question for the esteem panel.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Here's the toss up question. Who looks worse in these
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: romantic sunset photos from Arizona? Mike Rabel or Diana Russini.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: So you make the call who looks worse? So let's
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: go to the family feud, and survey says, Survey says
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: insider lady looks worse. Yes, we've got a full blown
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: credibility crisis, and the defendant today is Diana Russini. Unfortunately, we're,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: you know, supposed to look at this like these insider
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: people love to claim that they're not all in kohoots
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: with everyone. Now there's in Kots and then there's really
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: in Kotes, and you're supposed to supposedly be Switzerland. Now
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: we know, over the years professional sports has become more
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: like professional wrestling, and it's the fact that everyone's kind
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: of in bed with everyone. I didn't know literally though. Anyway,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to be supposedly neutral. And so the Internet
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: investigators went back and they started searching through all of
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: the stories Diana Russini wrote about Mike Vrabel and it
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: does not make her look very good. But hey, I
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: don't know, maybe it's possible to write and nothing happened,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: and it just happened to end up You're a very random,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: small boutique hotel in Sedona, Arizona, and it's just a kuwiggie.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: They happened to end up at the pool at the
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: same time. They danced a little bit, they had cocktails
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: at sunset. It's possible that that just happened to happen.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: It's also possible. Oh, you're a moron if you believe that,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: you know it's also possible. Yeah. So we've got the
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: pull side caressing with Mike Rabel for Diana Rossini, like again,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: like a rom com, like a Hallmark movie Harvest Moon
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: or something like that. Not the greatest look the not
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the greatest look in the world. You can't be breaking
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: news by day and breaking hearts by pull side. Verbel
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: also looks terrible. Just the question was a toss up
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: who looks worse and listen, she's definitely looking worse on this.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Vrabel does not look great either, though. However, the burden
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: is supposedly higher on the insider the reporter. If you
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: want to call reporting about sports reporting, uh, that's up
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: for debate. I gotta tell you, I've never seen Adam
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Schefter ever play foot see with Andy Reid. It's never happened, right,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I've never never, never seen. So the verdict is Rassini
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: guilty of optics malpractice at the very least here and
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: the sentenced to thirty days. No sources, no scoops, just reflection,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: soul searching, and unfortunately, the way this stuff works, I'm
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: trying to think of a way this can get cleaned up.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Like if Diana Rossini hired me and said, hey, can
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: you clean this up? Well, I'd say, well, I don't
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: really know what to do, because this is the kind
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: of stuff that follows you around. Anytime she breaks any
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: kind of NFL story, the trolls will be out in
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: force and say, wow, did you sleep with that guy?
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Did you go hang out in the pool with that guy?
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: And that's it's gonna be like Poltergeist. I don't know
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: how you dig out of that. Good luck. You know,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: every breaking story it's like, well, how did you get
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: that information?
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: It's just like they're going back and looking at everything
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: she wrote about Mike Vrabel and they're like, who wait
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: a minute, here my last word. So keeping the theme
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: of the hour going the CD tabloids, So if you're
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: late to the party, The New York Post the tabloid
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: of tabloids photos of Patriots coach Mike Vrabel and Diana
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Russini poolside at a boutique hotel in Sedona, Arizona, recently. Recently.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: All right, so the question is this a forbidden romance,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a pr disaster, or the greatest offseason subplot we could
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: have hoped for in twenty twenty six. So this is
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: the total bundle, The whole clown car has pulled up
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: into Sedona, the whole thing. It's the Twin City Special
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: of the day. Except instead of just a plain juicy Lucy,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: you've got the juicy Lucy scandal that is more stuffed
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: with secrets than cheese. We're talking about forbidden fruit in
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: the desert. Man. It's not the greatest look for the athletic,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: a black eye for the Patriots, and yeah, I mean,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: I listen, it doesn't play well in the Bible. But well,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: now some of your stand well, who cares? You know,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: they're maybe they're I text one of my my buddies
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: in the media said, well, maybe they're swingers, you know,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: maybe that's it. Maybe they're just you know, having fun.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: And I don't know. I don't know what's going on
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: behind the scenes. Obviously you don't either, and who knows.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: But the rest of the world's sleeping and we're here,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: you know, talking and crank up the old Dean Martin.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: That's samare right, because apparently when the moon hits your
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: eye like a big a pizza pie, you're at a
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: two thousand a night Bungalow as an NFL coach with
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: an insider just by Kwinki ding. So now the other thing,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: is this a one off situation? Are we gonna hear
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: more stories that pop up? I always ask that, That's
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: the first question we asked, because is this just a
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: one time situation or are we gonna hear stories about, oh,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: this guy was with that other person and she was
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: with somebody else. That always pops up here like a
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: pook and a coups story. It was contained. I haven't
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: seen anything else since that one report that Shaun Watson
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: a couple of years back when he had his issues.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: It was the flood gates opening up and we were
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: off to the races and that was that. And so
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: are we gonna hear other stories about other NFL coaches
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: snuggling with reporters? Unlikely? Unlikely? You never know, You never know.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: So also, you don't think the Patriot players are going
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: to absolutely roast Mike Vrabel over this, like buckle up,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Bucker Rowe, because Rabel has opened Pandora's box. What's in
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: the box? Pandora's box for locker room ball busting for
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: this and so again we'll wait for the dust to settle.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: And right now it's a nice spicy meatball, and we
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: like a nice spicy meatball of the offseason, and it's
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: given us through an attire miler monologue. So I'm grateful
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: for Diana Russini and Mike Vrabel for giving us the
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: gift of content. We are in the content business and
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: we appreciate the fact that they have provided us with
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: some good content here for the show, and so so

• 15:51
  Speaker 1: our lead this hour is from baseball, and then we
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: had a Donnie brook in Anaheim. More on that later.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: We'll have blow below fight coverage as the Atlanta Braves
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: and the Angels, they went at it. I think even
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Tommy and Atlanta got some punches in there. And if
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, our buddy, the toughest listener in the
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: history of the show, the coolest story the man that
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: got eaten by the alligator. He went out there, he
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: got some punches in. But our lead this hour is
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: from the Bronx. We'll get to that later. We start
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: out in the Bronx. We had a brew ha ha
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: involving rhythmic chanting. Say what yeah, we order the zoo.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: The Bronx Zoo is where we go now. If you
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: didn't hear, perhaps not the longtime play by Playboice of
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: the New York Yankees, Michael Kay scolding scolding the hometown
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Yankee fans for rhythmically chanting F one so to, f
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: one so too, although they didn't say f I don't
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: know what other words. There's a lot of words fun.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Did they say fun one so, dough or fudge Juan
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Soto something like that. So there was some rhythmic chanting
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: there during the recent game, which is great because Wan
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: so To plays for the Mets, not the Yankees, and
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: the Yankees weren't playing the Mets. So Kay went on
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: a rant. He said, shame on all of you, all
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: of you people. He questioned the fan behavior. So that
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: is long time, long time play by play voice Michael
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Kay right to shame the diehards or is he completely
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: out of touch, completely out of touch with the real
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: fan and what they sound like. So my observations, I've
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: got Hall Monitor Princely and Hannibal Lecter and we will
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: combine all of these things together. We're gonna make a soup. Now,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: We're not gonna make a French onion or a chicken
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: soup or a Matza ball, so that we're gonna make
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: an alphabet soup is what we're going to make, which
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: is close to what Marcel likes, which is just spaghettios,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: which is just the Oh but this is all the
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: other letters. All right, so number, I said number. This
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: is what's known as an FO situation. Fake outrage, Uh,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: fake outrage, completely manufactured. Now Kay knows exactly exactly what
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: that building sounds like. He's been calling Yankee games for many,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: many years. He was a writer, I believe, for the
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: New York Post, Believe it or that, before he got
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: into radio and then eventually television. And so now suddenly
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: I am offended. I am offended by this. Please, total
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: fraud energy, Total fraud energy. He's up there scolding the
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Yankee fan like he's the pope of the Bronx. Spoiler alert,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: spoiler alert, You're not the hall monitor at Yankee Stadium.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: You're not, so stop. Meanwhile, this is the part of
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the story which you can't get past. He's on the
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Yankees payroll, cashing checks from the Steinbrenner family. So that
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: is corporate pr and a lot of you ignore it.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Everyone kind of ignores it. I'm not going to ignore it.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: And you're policing a chant It's a who cares a
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: bunch of drunk people chanting who cares? And since when
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: did Yankee Stadium become some kind of yoga retreat. You
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: can't do that? What are you doing? Oh my gotta stop.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: And one Sodo the reason that some of the natives
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: are restless, there is one Sodo played for the Yankees
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: very briefly. He clearly didn't have a problem playing in
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: New York. He just went a few miles away from
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: the Bronx down to Queens and said, that's it. That's
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do. And he picked the Mets over
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: the Yankees, which is an act of malfeasance. And so
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the fans are still ticked. And also it's more likely
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: than not they were just bored futs around and all right,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: we'll start chanting. All right, they started chanting, And so
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: it's it's not a library, it's Yankee Stadium, Okay, So
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: don't blame the customers. I thought it was hilarious. And
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: if I'm Wan Soto, I'm like, that's the coolest thing
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: in the world. Like I matter so much. These idiots
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: are chanting in my name. See Ultimate Badge of Honors
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: what that is. And so you hold the right people
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: accountable if you want the Yankees even though they spend
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: a fair amount of money. It ain't your daddy's Yankees,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: that's for sure. It ain't the old man Steinbrenner. The
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: kid the sequel is not the equal there. These Steinbrenner
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: kids have not continued the tradition of Yankee baseball the
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: way it had been. Now meanwhile, we have another kerfluffle
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: in baseball. We go to Boston. A developing story here.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Red Sox did something they don't normally do. They won
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: their game on Tuesday night. So that's rare for the
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Red Sox to win the Brew Crew. But in that series,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Red Sox first basement longtime catcher turn first baseman Wilson
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Contreras is the headline. He has been bouncing around the
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: baseball world. Here so Wilson Contreras says that he is
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: ready to take matters into his own hands. This is
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: after he got hit the other night by Brandon Woodroff
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: of the Brew Crew. Contreras has been hit one hundred
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and thirty one times in his big league career, twenty
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: four of those by Milwaukee and six of them by
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: Brandon Woodroff, so six of the twenty four in his
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: career and no other team has plunked him Contrera's of
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: the Red Sox now more than fourteen times. Now, keep
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: in mind he played for the Cubs and the Cardinals
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: in the division. So you play the Brewers quite a bit.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: You play the Brewers a ton because you're in the division.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: You play everyone in the division more than anyone else. Now,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: the money quote. The reason this story still has legs,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: can you tell me what? I will tell you why.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Thanks for asking. The reason it still has legs is
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: because of the quote, and the mother of all quotes.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: You very rarely get this kind of quote unfiltered. So
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Wilson Contreras said, the other day, they always say, talking
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: about the Brewers, I'm not trying to hit you. That
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: gets old. That gets old. So next time they hit
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: me again, Contrera said, I'm going to take one of
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: them out. That's a message close quote. I'm going to
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: take one of them out. That is great, all right,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: So question for the panel. Red Sox first baseman Wilson
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Contreras saying that next time, next time the Brewers hit him,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: he's going to take one of them out. Does this
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: sound like a guy? Does this sound like a guy
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: who is demanding accountability? Or a guy who wants attention.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: So as the unlicensed doctor, the a doodle doctor, if
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: you will, much like Doc Mike Quackery Quackery unlicensed doctor
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: of sports radio. I have diagnosed Wilson Contreras of the
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Red Sox here with a chronic case of fake tough
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: guy syndrome. Fake tough guy syndrome. So I recommend go
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: down to the pharmacy, go down to Walgreens and your
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: prescription will be waiting for you there. Take some of
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: those antibiotics and take about three to four days to
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: get that completely out of your system. There, Contreras his
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: inter monologue spilled out into the real world, and he
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: said that it sounded like he thinks he's auditioning for
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: a remake reboot of slap Shot, or he wants to
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: be a nineteen nineties NHL goon Tydomy from back in
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: the day in hockey. He wants to be that guy
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: or Stu Grimson, who I used to deal with when
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: he was on the Mighty Ducks at the end of
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: his career there the great. He wrote kids books, children's books,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: and he was like the Goon and the Ducks back
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: when they had goons and all that stuff. So anyway,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: the reality is that Wilson Contrero's is just kind of
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: a nondescript MLB player, not very memorable, made some all
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: star teams, not somebody that is a household name or
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: any of that. And so again, go down and get
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: your medicine. Get your medicine. Now, get your medicine. And
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: it's not the nineties anymore. It is at tension seeking,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: though obviously wrapped in some kind of EyeBlack. There the
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: faux vigilante justice. And I would also like to address,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: and this is one of the reasons I think this
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: is so ridiculous. Let's address the snuffleufogus in the room. Now,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: what is the snuffleu fogus in the room? You ask, well,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: I will tell you. It's inside the batter's box. Now,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: if you've ever watched Wilson Contreras and you've actually paid attention,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: good for you. You're better than me. But I went
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: back and I watched some of the clips, looked at
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: the scouting report. Wilson Contrero's is noted as a crowder.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: He does not give you your space. He crowds home
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: plate like he's going to buy a television at Best
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: Buy on Black Friday. He's really up against the door
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: trying to get in there and run to get the television.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: He wants the TV. And so when you lean in,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: this is my experience, and what do I know. I
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: just do the Overnight Show. But my experience is a
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: baseball player, when you lean in, you hover right over
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: the plate. When you do that, you are flirting with danger,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: stranger danger. The baseball is a stranger and it provides danger.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: So there's that. You're basically juggling hand gradades, acting shocked
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: when one goes kaboom. I can't believe it. What kaboom?
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: What's up with that? And so this is what's known
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: as for Wilson Contrera's the Red Sox. Princely behavior, princely behavior,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: or go the prince of paranoia, A ridiculous overreaction, A
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: ridiculous overreaction. You want accountability, what's in the box? Stay
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: in the box and all that, and just take your
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: base and move on. And there you go, and Don
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Baylor is rolling over in his grave, the man that
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: was the gold standard for getting hit by pitches and
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: all that. Occasionally we'll just catch the pitch was thrown
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: at him. Just catch it and that's it. But if
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: you want accountability again, just stand in the box. And
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: this just sounds like to me, it's it's all barkfferf
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: and no bite. That's that's it, all right. We do
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: our own special effects around here. Now to Pittsburg we go.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Let's pivot to the NFL. To the NFL as we
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: are waiting the draft, don't forget not only the NFL
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Draft weekend, but the first ever Mallard meet and greet
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: in the Cincinnati area, the greater Cincinnati area. A venue
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: will be announced, will be announced, likely tomorrow, likely to
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Marble announce the venue. So you're gona want to keep
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: listening for that, and I'll definitely get into it on
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: the Fifth Hour podcast on Friday, once we get everything
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: all lined up on that. But this is about not
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: about that. This is about the Steelers. The NFL Draft
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: is in Pittsburgh, the Steelers who are dependent on their
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: defense because their offense has been mid for many, many years.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: So TJ. Watt, who is the anchor. Yeah, yeah, you'd
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: go back in the old days, you'd go to the
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: shopping mall. You had to have those anchor tenants and
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: then you had a bunch of smaller stores, but you
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: had the anchor tenants. So in the Pittsburgh defense, TJ.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Watt is like Sears Roebuck back in the day, like
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: a big, big box store that's not really around anymore.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: It's that kind of thing. So he's the anchor of
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: their defensive identity and his performance is obviously very important. However,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: things have gone sideways. They've gone sideways of late as
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: a result TJ. Watt recently taking on some shrapnel, as
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: he has been labeled, if not the biggest, he is
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: certainly one of the NFL's most overpaid players, most overpaid players.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: So question is, is Steelers defensive ENDTJ. Watt the NFL's
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: most overrated and overpaid superstar or is this the worst
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: take of the offseason with a winking a nod to
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel doing the backstroke in the pool with Diana Russini.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: All right, So again, is Steelers defensive end TJ. Watt
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the most overrated superstar and overpaid superstar or is this
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: just a really bad take. So we put this into
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: the Malord fib finder. Now you cannot buy this. It's outlawed.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: We have got we got one grandfathered in the Mallard
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: fib finder. So if you look at the Mallard fib
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: finder on this one and you read the screen on that,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: and it says right there, you can see the hand
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: is pointing on the Malard fip finder. Not worst take
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: no lies detected is what it says here. It's just
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: no lies detected. That yes, overrated, overpaid based on production.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: That is all accurate analysis for TJ. Watt. And that's
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: just the way it is here. The Steelers gave him
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: after a wine fest, which all the standard these guys complain,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: and so the Steelers gave TJ. Watt hedge fund money.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: They said, oh, we'll give you a hedge fund money.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: They handed out a three year, one hundred and twenty
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: three million dollar extens You might remember this a couple
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: years ago. So they gained the money. And what did
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: they get so far? They have gotten Hannibal Lecter. That's
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: not a compliment if you remember the iconic silence of
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: the Lambs. They got the muzzle. As Watt has been
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: muzzled in recent years by opposing teams and his incompetence,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: if you will, and we're talking about a guy who
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: has literally vanished in terms of domination. It does not exist.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: He's like in the Witness Protection Program and all that.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Entering his age thirty two age thirty two season, his
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: sack numbers have done the dipsy do how low can
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: you go? There? So they've gone down, They've plummeted into
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: the abyss. And as they say on the street, the
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: floor of Wall Street, they say, do not try to
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: catch a falling star. Do not try to catch a
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: falling star. And he isn't even in the same area code,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: let alone the same zip code of a forty plus
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: million dollars a year ballplayer. He hasn't been that guy.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: You're not that guy, Pal, You're not that guy. So
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: don't step into a puddle that's actually a sinkle. And
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: the Steelers at this point with Watt, have stepped into
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: the puddle. It turns out so far it's been a sinkle.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: And if you look at the comps, very unlikely that
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Watt is going to have a magic around as he
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: is now heading into the final year of his athletic prime.
• 31:04

• 31:12
  Speaker 2: To the third degree, this is one big event.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: Gets grilled trouploop.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: Long time cornerback Stefan Gilmore announced his retirement last week,
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: and on Monday, he said in an interview that he
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: has a goal of getting into both the Patriots Hall
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: of Fame and the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Now, Ben,
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: the Pats Hall is probably a lock. But will he
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: get it? Will he get a gold jacket?
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah? So I don't have him as a Hall of Fame.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: He's He's a two time All Pro. He was the
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year, so that is the criteria
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: to be in the Hall of Fame. I just didn't
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: think of him as a Hall of Famer. Let's put
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: it this way, Coop. He's a borderline Hall of Fame
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: guy because you can certainly tell the story without mentioning
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Stefan Gilmore's name. I mean, he had some big moments
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: and all that, and you want to Super Bowl and
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year. Is that a Hall of Fame?
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: I don't fix it.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: Next same said coach Kellen Moore said recently that even
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: with the addition of running back Travis at TN he
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: still wants Alvin Kamara as part of the running back room.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: At Tien himself said that he thinks that sharing the
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: load with Kamar will benefit them both. Kamara had the
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: worst season of his career last year. Will AT ten
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: actually help Kamara?
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: Well? Will he even Kamara be on the team. We
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: gotta wait for the draft, Coop. That's the weekend. These
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: guys get traded. NFL Draft weekend, next quick, right.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: The Bulls fired their executive VP and their GM. However,
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: it's being reported the team is still high on Billy Donovan.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: Is keeping Donovan the right move?
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: It's an odd move. I don't think he's like the
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: greatest coach. I don't know why they're keeping him cool?
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: Why does he have pictures of Jerry Reinsdorf? How'd we
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: do you fail this game?
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: I won?
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: All right? Thank you me?
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: I won?
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: No, he said, I won.

• 33:20
  Speaker 1: So I'm told the rand that we had another incident
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: of a naked person in sports here. So they were, well,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: the Braves guy wasn't naked. The guy in Tampa had
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: his butt cheeks out and a naked man ran in
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: front of the real Madrid team bus. So oh yeah,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: you know, and Mike Rabel the Mike Rabel thing and
• 33:40

  Speaker 1: Boutique Hotel with NFL insider Diana Russini.
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: I just think they need to come out with it
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: if they're gonna get caught like.
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: That, you know.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well they said it was harmless.
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: You know, it just happened, right, We just happened to
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: be in this random place, yeah, you know, just hanging
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: out where at the same time swimsuits.
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: Where was that?
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: There was another rumor what a couple of weeks ago
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: two other people, right, she was taken and he's a player,
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: and they're like, oh, they might be dating. They were
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: in Vegas, but there was actually a convention going on
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: in Vegas. That made sense for why they would be
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: at the same place at the same time if variables,
• 34:18
