4:02
Speaker 1: the Queen of Hearts with Lorrain up and so get

Speaker 1: your questions in hashtag Queen of Hearts. We may have
4:09
Speaker 1: to postpone too much or not enough. We'll see how
4:13
Speaker 1: the bookam goes. We'll see how the time goes. I
4:15
Speaker 1: am on time, Mallard by the clock for the clock,
4:17
Speaker 1: plausibly all about the clock, So keep that in mind.
4:20
Speaker 1: Our lead this hour, though, is from baseball. We start
4:25
Speaker 1: out in baseball in the borough known as the Bronx,
4:29
Speaker 1: where Yankees manager Aaron Boone, who somehow keeps his job there.
4:35
Speaker 1: Aaron Boone giving a state of the Yankee address regarding
4:40
Speaker 1: the headliner, Aaron Judge. So what is this about? So
4:44
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge, if you haven't heard, it's snap, crackle pop
4:49
Speaker 1: for Aaron Judge. But how bad is it? So he's
4:52
Speaker 1: dealing with, oh my aching shoulder, some shoulder soreness. That
4:56
Speaker 1: was the early report out of New York City. And
5:00
Speaker 1: according to Aaron Boone, this has been going on for
5:02
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks or so. So if you didn't
5:04
Speaker 1: hear about it, maybe not. It has become problematic in
5:10
Speaker 1: recent days. According to Aaron boone affecting the swing saw
5:15
Speaker 1: wing ba dah, saw wing ba dah, the swing of
5:19
Speaker 1: the Aaron Judge. And they had an MRI which confirmed
5:23
Speaker 1: it was not a shoulder It was a bone bruise
5:26
Speaker 1: in the upper right rib area. And this is not
5:30
Speaker 1: one of those baby back, baby back ribs. This is
5:32
Speaker 1: actually a very important rib as you know, the trunk area.
5:36
Speaker 1: Every movement that you make, if you have an injury
5:39
Speaker 1: in that area, it becomes problematic. And so I'm not
5:42
Speaker 1: a doctor. I can play one on the radio. We're
5:45
Speaker 1: all humans, so well some of you might not be,
5:47
Speaker 1: but we that's the deal. That's the deal. So it's
5:50
Speaker 1: been affecting his swing. An MRI confirming that as we said,
5:55
Speaker 1: they said the Yankees there was not any serious structural
5:59
Speaker 1: shoulder issue. So that's it. Now. It is interesting to
6:04
Speaker 1: note that Aaron Judge was not in the Yankee lineup
6:07
Speaker 1: against Cleveland, a game where the Guardians of the Galaxy,
6:11
Speaker 1: the team named after a Bridge, was victorious. Uh and
6:16
Speaker 1: Jose Caballero started in right field instead of Aaron Judge.
6:22
Speaker 1: And we were told that Aaron Judge is scheduled to
6:25
Speaker 1: meet with doctors. Several more doctors for further evaluation. Some
6:31
Speaker 1: reports said he's going to see a specialist later today
6:34
Speaker 1: to get another opinion, and he had doctor visits on Monday, Tuesday,
6:40
Speaker 1: and now another one coming up later on Wednesday. Now,
6:44
Speaker 1: the story that we're going to jump off on here
6:46
Speaker 1: is the Yankees saying this is overall good news. They're
6:51
Speaker 1: saying this is good news, and they're hinting, well, this
6:53
Speaker 1: is going to be a short term thing. A Judge
6:55
Speaker 1: is listed as day to day and it's not a
6:58
Speaker 1: long term injury, and it just it impacts a swing,
7:02
Speaker 1: but it's not as throwing. So everything's okay. So that
7:04
Speaker 1: is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the
7:07
Speaker 1: question do you share do you share the Yankees optimism
7:13
Speaker 1: that this injured rib thing of a jig is just
7:19
Speaker 1: a minor delio for the captain of the Yankees, Aaron Judge.
7:23
Speaker 1: So I've got Amtrak, John Sterling, and baggage carts and
7:30
Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we're
7:34
Speaker 1: going to make a barbecue chicken burrito is what we're
7:38
Speaker 1: going to make. Actually I made that. Actually that's not bad,
7:42
Speaker 1: all right. Put a little barbecue sauce and there's some
7:45
Speaker 1: chicken some other stuff. All right, So my first thought
7:49
Speaker 1: here to answer the question, do you share the Yankees
7:52
Speaker 1: optimism regarding the health and the outlook for Aaron Judge,
7:56
Speaker 1: and I would like to quote the great weed Man, hippie.
7:58
Speaker 1: You gotta be joking, Okay, you gotta be doing I
8:01
Speaker 1: will be the grown up in the room. Aaron Judge,
8:03
Speaker 1: last I checked, is six foot seven and listed at
8:07
Speaker 1: over two hundred and eighty pounds. He's the size of
8:11
Speaker 1: an old like back in the old days, that was
8:12
Speaker 1: the size of an NFL offensive lineman. Now they're three
8:15
Speaker 1: point fifty, but back in the old days that would
8:18
Speaker 1: be the size of an NFL offensive line So there
8:22
Speaker 1: is no such thing, no such thing as a minor
8:25
Speaker 1: rib injury for a guy that size. The bigger they are,
8:29
Speaker 1: I'm told, the faster they break down. And I go
8:33
Speaker 1: by the Shack principle. Back in the day, if you're
8:37
Speaker 1: old enough to there's a guy named Shaquille O'Neal who's
8:39
Speaker 1: just a clown on TV. Now, he played basketball for
8:41
Speaker 1: a long time, and it was the Shack principle when
8:44
Speaker 1: he would get hurt. Based on history though, and call
8:49
Speaker 1: me what you want, Aaron Judge and the Yankees they
8:52
Speaker 1: always say always, and Aaron Boone and everyone on the
8:56
Speaker 1: age they always say minor minor. Right before we get
9:02
Speaker 1: a six week SOKA, the drama o rama kicks in.
9:07
Speaker 1: And let's not forget the Yankees' medical staff has botched
9:11
Speaker 1: more timelines on estimated return from injury than Amtrak. Okay,
9:16
Speaker 1: and this, if you use the Schnaz test and you
9:20
Speaker 1: smell it smells like a much bigger deal. Oh, you're
9:24
Speaker 1: just being a shock jock. No, I'm not. I'm being realistic.
9:27
Speaker 1: And here's why. It's not just the conga line of
9:30
Speaker 1: specialists that Aaron Judge is running off to see. He's
9:35
Speaker 1: on the Yellow Brick Road looking to find the Wizard
9:38
Speaker 1: of Oz. It's more than that. It's because of late
9:42
Speaker 1: this supposed minor rib injury. For Aaron Judge. He has
9:46
Speaker 1: gone from the Bronx bomber to the Bronx flopper at
9:51
Speaker 1: home plate and the Yankees want us to believe. Ah,
9:53
Speaker 1: it's nothing, nothing to see here. So my evidence on this,
9:58
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge, if you go back to the last sixteen games,
10:01
Speaker 1: right around the time Aaron Boone says this thing happened.
10:05
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge is batting below the Mendoza line. He's hitting
10:09
Speaker 1: one point eighty with just one home run and a
10:13
Speaker 1: slugging percentage which is buried in the Hudson River. It's terrible.
10:18
Speaker 1: That is more than just a blip. That's more than
10:21
Speaker 1: if this is Aaron Judge, and he can't have the
10:24
Speaker 1: injury healed anytime soon without taking some time off. And
10:28
Speaker 1: we know when these guys take time on the injury tent,
10:32
Speaker 1: they're gone for a month. Good luck and the Yankee
10:36
Speaker 1: It's not like the Yankees are in first place now.
10:39
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay hasn't played very well recently. They're still low
10:41
Speaker 1: in first place. If you look at the at the Bronx,
10:44
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge is the center the way the team is designed.
10:47
Speaker 1: He's the center of the wagon wheel and everything else
10:50
Speaker 1: is around Aaron Judge, and that set up. The Yankees
10:54
Speaker 1: have built their entire identity around number ninety nine. So
10:58
Speaker 1: as he goes, so goes the season. I remember a
11:01
Speaker 1: couple years ago Aaron Judge got into an incident. He
11:05
Speaker 1: was manhandled by the fence at Dodger Stadium, the bullpen gate,
11:09
Speaker 1: and that derailed the Yankees for a long period of time.
11:14
Speaker 1: As Judge was out of the lineup. Now, secondly we
11:17
Speaker 1: go to Anaheim, where the Angels are bad at baseball,
11:21
Speaker 1: however continue to be really good at providing content. In
11:24
Speaker 1: a random game which we would not have talked about,
11:28
Speaker 1: the Angels and the Rockies got together. Now, why would
11:32
Speaker 1: we These are two terrible teams. Why would you talk
11:35
Speaker 1: about this game? You're a loser, that's why you're doing overnights.
11:38
Speaker 1: Let me explain. So, the Angels right fielder Joe Adell
11:43
Speaker 1: had a moment in time that was so good we
11:47
Speaker 1: need to talk about have a conversation. So it was
11:50
Speaker 1: in the fourth inning and there was a fly ball
11:53
Speaker 1: by someone named TJ. Rumfield's I have no idea who
11:56
Speaker 1: that is. Apparently plays for the Colorado baseball team, and
12:00
Speaker 1: flyball right off his bat and it looked like it
12:03
Speaker 1: should have been a routine play for a big league outfielder. However,
12:09
Speaker 1: plot twist. For some reason that seemingly routine play, the
12:14
Speaker 1: ball glanced off Joe Adell's glove. It then went cub
12:19
Speaker 1: plunk right off his head. He's when a baseball had
12:22
Speaker 1: at the ton and karmed over the fence for a
12:26
Speaker 1: solo home run. Yeah, a doink home run. Now Colorado
12:33
Speaker 1: was up eight to nothing at that point. They ended
12:35
Speaker 1: up winning the game eight to two. Who cares about that?
12:37
Speaker 1: Joe Adele seemed fine other than embarrassed. There's a little
12:44
Speaker 1: red face there. Why wouldn't you be? He kind of
12:46
Speaker 1: shook it off, which is good because most of the
12:47
Speaker 1: time baseball players get hit, that's it. They're out for
12:50
Speaker 1: two weeks. Question, with everything else that has happened, and
12:54
Speaker 1: Odell's on Joydell's on pace. I think they like ground
12:57
Speaker 1: thirty home runs or something like that. He's not hitting
12:59
Speaker 1: for average, He's driving in a fair amount of runs
13:02
Speaker 1: for the Angels, and the trade deadline is going to
13:04
Speaker 1: be here in a month, about two months, and his
13:07
Speaker 1: name has popped up as a possibility to enter the portal.
13:10
Speaker 1: The question is what do you do with the Joe
13:14
Speaker 1: Adele experience in Anaheim? This the latest chapter in this
13:19
Speaker 1: wild ride for jo Adell. So after letting the homer
13:23
Speaker 1: bounce clean off his head, right, this season has officially
13:28
Speaker 1: become a Michael Jackson tune. It is strictly black or
13:33
Speaker 1: white for Jo Adele. We are ruling the world, right,
13:38
Speaker 1: I mean he's ruling the world here it's the box
13:41
Speaker 1: of Crayola crayons and there's just two colors. That's it,
13:45
Speaker 1: black or white, no middle ground. And in a season
13:49
Speaker 1: where the Angels suck, this is a season of extremes
13:52
Speaker 1: where Adele is either a Marvel comic superhero or a
13:57
Speaker 1: one man blooper reel. He's the living embodiment of the
14:02
Speaker 1: late great John Sterlings eternal shrug. That's baseball Susan Man,
14:09
Speaker 1: the doink Dinger, the doint Dinger, oof El Classico. It
14:15
Speaker 1: really was for a season fan which means you're old.
14:19
Speaker 1: That immediately triggered a flashback anyone of a certain age remembers.
14:22
Speaker 1: There was this guy named jose cansecoh bash Brother, steroid
14:25
Speaker 1: guy back in the day for the old Oakland Athletics,
14:27
Speaker 1: although at this time he was playing for the Texas Rangers.
14:30
Speaker 1: This was in the early nineties, before I was alive,
14:33
Speaker 1: of course, in nineteen ninety three, and he gave up
14:36
Speaker 1: the head bop home run now, same deal. Oh, that
14:40
Speaker 1: was more clean than the Joe Adell home run which ricocheted.
14:44
Speaker 1: And apparently Odell I didn't remember this because it was
14:47
Speaker 1: during the pandemic. But Adele back in twenty twenty. There
14:50
Speaker 1: was a prequel back in twenty twenty where he gave
14:53
Speaker 1: up a rare four base error. That was during the pandemic.
14:57
Speaker 1: Now on the bright side for Joe Adell. Remember I
15:00
Speaker 1: mentioned it's either black or white here for Joe Adele.
15:03
Speaker 1: He is a noted defensive player, and we talked about
15:08
Speaker 1: him back in April. He had not one, not too
15:10
Speaker 1: but he had three home run robberies. He robbed the
15:13
Speaker 1: Seattle Mariners of three home runs at the Big A
15:16
Speaker 1: spectacular spider man. His spidy like sense is Joe Adell
15:22
Speaker 1: leaping over the fence to catch the baseball, and Adele
15:26
Speaker 1: giveth and Adele taketh and then he gives you a
15:31
Speaker 1: migraine is what he gives you. So he's either a
15:34
Speaker 1: superhero or a supernova. There is no middle ground, all right,
15:37
Speaker 1: Final thought, don't tell Eddie Hockey game number one, game
15:44
Speaker 1: number one of the twenty twenty six Stanley Cup Final.
15:48
Speaker 1: I actually watched this game. Don't tell anybody, I'll ruin
15:50
Speaker 1: my reputation. I was flipping between the baseball games, and
15:53
Speaker 1: of course during the intermission, I stopped and went to
15:54
Speaker 1: the baseball and then I went back to the hockey
15:57
Speaker 1: back and forth, very entertaining game. It was not low scoring.
16:01
Speaker 1: The Golden Knights, the dogs are the Golden Knights with
16:07
Speaker 1: my favorite coaching hockey John Tortorella, have upset the Hurricanes
16:12
Speaker 1: in Game number one. They win the final score of
16:15
Speaker 1: five to four. The game was tied four to four.
16:19
Speaker 1: Late in the third period, someone named Colton Sissons, I
16:22
Speaker 1: don't know who that is, set up Thomas Hurtle for
16:26
Speaker 1: the Golden Knights game winning goal. Better story is in
16:29
Speaker 1: the losing locker room. So for the first time ever,
16:32
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the Carolina Hurricanes question. Who
16:34
Speaker 1: gets the blame, the blame, any blaming me, blamingy for
16:38
Speaker 1: the Carolina Hurricanes seemingly on a burner. They had all
16:41
Speaker 1: the momentum, just like the Knicks, all the momentum. So
16:45
Speaker 1: who gets the blame for the Carolina Hurricanes blowing? They
16:48
Speaker 1: didn't really two nothing lead in this game and they
16:51
Speaker 1: end up losing, had multiple leads, all lost. Obviously they
16:53
Speaker 1: lose the game. So on this one, the coach, and
16:59
Speaker 1: I'm at the age now where I interviewed him when
17:01
Speaker 1: he played back in the day, Rod Brindemore his team
17:04
Speaker 1: to quote towards sucked at a time you cannot suck,
17:07
Speaker 1: and that's it. And from what I read leading in,
17:10
Speaker 1: I was reading some of the you know, I haven't
17:11
Speaker 1: watched much hockey this year, so I was reading some
17:13
Speaker 1: of the stuff leading into the Stanley Cup finals kind
17:15
Speaker 1: of set the tone, and everything I read said, oh,
17:18
Speaker 1: this Florida Panthers team, their discipline, suffocating defense, the whole thing,
17:24
Speaker 1: forcing opponents into errors and all that, and Carolina instead
17:31
Speaker 1: goofed many times costly mistakes and puck handling a bit
17:37
Speaker 1: of a problem. Bill Belichick should have read them. He
17:39
Speaker 1: was at the game wearing his Carolina merch Belichick, he
17:43
Speaker 1: should have read them the Riot Act, although he wasn't
17:45
Speaker 1: coaching the team. The puck handling very sloppy. It seemed
17:50
Speaker 1: like the rubber hockey puck had been dipped only when
17:54
Speaker 1: Carolina had it for stretches of the game in Game one,
17:57
Speaker 1: that they had dipped it in movie theater popcorn butter.
18:01
Speaker 1: You know that buttery popcorn mix, And so they dipped
18:04
Speaker 1: it in that movie theater butter popcorn, and an existential dread.
18:10
Speaker 1: As it was bad. They were frazzled, disheveled and downright.
18:14
Speaker 1: It was like a candy bar. They butter fingered it,
18:16
Speaker 1: if you will. And so, as we know, in any sport,
18:19
Speaker 1: not just hockey, in any sport, possession is nine tenths
18:22
Speaker 1: of victory. And yeah, you're getting this team wide malaise. Now.
18:27
Speaker 1: To answer the question, though individually, said the wise guy
18:30
Speaker 1: behind the microphone, we give a dunce cap, the biggest
18:35
Speaker 1: dunce cap we can find, of Frederick Anderson, the goaltender
18:40
Speaker 1: for the Carolina hockey team football, the Carolina hockey team.
18:45
Speaker 1: Here the goal who listen. He had played very well.
18:49
Speaker 1: Looked at some of the numbers, and again this is
18:51
Speaker 1: why you don't really pay attention to the stats and
18:53
Speaker 1: all that. You get all excited and you're, oh, good stats.
18:57
Speaker 1: That's why they that's why they play the games. But
18:59
Speaker 1: he had great number coming in. This has been a
19:01
Speaker 1: strength from everything I read leading into the Stanley Cup
19:04
Speaker 1: final that Anderson had been wonderful. And then this became
19:08
Speaker 1: a liability in the beginning. And there's really only one
19:12
Speaker 1: word I would say to describe the way he played.
19:14
Speaker 1: He choked. That Anderson choked, period stopped. That's it. Entering
19:20
Speaker 1: the final, he had a nine to thirty one saved percentage,
19:23
Speaker 1: which I'm told is good. And Anderson allowed five goals
19:28
Speaker 1: on just twenty three shots for a puke in your
19:32
Speaker 1: mouth seven to eighty three save percentage. And when I
19:36
Speaker 1: mentioned he choked, that was at the beginning of the game.
19:39
Speaker 1: He gave up three goals on the first eight shots
19:43
Speaker 1: for Vegas. Three of the first eight shots went in
19:47
Speaker 1: the net. Put the biscuit in the basket. And this
19:52
Speaker 1: was a standard regret. Actually wasn't a standard regression of
19:55
Speaker 1: the meme. He crashed, landed Anderson, the goaltender for Carolina,
20:00
Speaker 1: skittered across the tarmac and took out not one, not two,
20:03
Speaker 1: but three baggage carts. It was a complete meltdown and

25:35
Speaker 1: here's the Mala riddle of day again, and Lorraine's gonna
25:38
Speaker 1: answer it now. At the airport, we believe this is
25:40
Speaker 1: in sal Polo, they performed a blank for the Brazilian
25:43
Speaker 1: soccer team before they left to go off for the
25:47
Speaker 1: I guess in the US right, twenty twenty six feet
25:49
Speaker 1: of World Cups coming up? Do you have an answer, Lorraine? Now, yes,
25:52
Speaker 1: a rain dance, A rain dance, well, not quite unfortunately,
25:57
Speaker 1: a ceremonial water salute. Some have called it a baptism,
26:02
Speaker 1: but the video has gone viral. It shows these water
26:07
Speaker 1: arcs from the fire trucks spraying over the ye know,
26:12
Speaker 1: the water trucks, you know, those big airport water trucks
26:15
Speaker 1: are spraying over the plane as it taxis on the
26:19
Speaker 1: tarmac to take off. And apparently this is an aviation
26:22
Speaker 1: tradition for special flights and send offs or maiden voyages,
26:27
Speaker 1: and it's not unique to Brazil, but it's a great
26:29
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. Now I have been sprayed by
26:32
Speaker 1: a fireboat which is similar to the but that the
26:34
Speaker 1: things they have at the airport. And let me tell
26:37
Speaker 1: you something. We were in mccobby Cove when they opened
26:40
Speaker 1: the Giants Ballpark. It was a radio bit and the
26:44
Speaker 1: people at that evil knb are They had the San
26:47
Speaker 1: Francisco fireboat spray our boat because it was a rival
26:51
Speaker 1: radio thing. And I don't have time to get in here,
26:55
Speaker 1: but it was hilarious. I'd spend almost thirty years and
26:58
Speaker 1: I still remember it. It was ridiculous and it's by
27:01
Speaker 1: the way, we learned it's illegal. It's illegal. Well you're
27:05
Speaker 1: not allowed to in that in I guess I don't
27:07
Speaker 1: know about in Brazil, but in San Francisco you're not
27:09
Speaker 1: allowed to shoot the fire boat thing the hoses off
27:14
Speaker 1: unless there's an actual fire. There was no fire. Did
27:17
Speaker 1: anyone get prosecuted? Hell no, you know which equipment got ruined,
27:23
Speaker 1: But the radio equipment got soaked because they were doing
27:26
Speaker 1: a broadcaster remoat from the top of the boat. We
