Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right now time for the legendary Warner Wolf and
- 0:02Speaker 1: thank you Warner. You can be the tie breaker here
- 0:06Speaker 1: because we were talking about the World Cup and Curtis
- 0:10Speaker 1: just can't stand it. Thinks it's dull, thought it was boring,
- 0:13Speaker 1: can't wait for it to leave. I'm not a big
- 0:16Speaker 1: soccer fan, but I was riveted by it. I thought
- 0:19Speaker 1: it even though there were no goals, I thought it
- 0:21Speaker 1: was exciting.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Man, you must be riveted by everything. An hour and
- 0:28Speaker 2: a half regulation, no goals. If you missed the entire regulation,
- 0:33Speaker 2: you didn't miss anything. Wait a minute, Argentina had no
- 0:38Speaker 2: shots on goal. None. That means Spain could have played
- 0:43Speaker 2: without a goalie. No shots on goal, You gotta be kidding.
- 0:50Speaker 2: I'll tell you what else I didn't watch yesterday on
- 0:52Speaker 2: TV Golf, UFC, boxing and auto racing. Well, they never
- 0:58Speaker 2: make a never make a right turn.
- 1:00Speaker 3: Now, now, one thing you focused on is good sportsmanship,
- 1:04Speaker 3: no matter what the sport. And towards the end of
- 1:08Speaker 3: the match between the Argentines in Spain, some of the
- 1:12Speaker 3: Argentina players were brawling on the field. They wouldn't do
- 1:16Speaker 3: the postgame interviews, you know, like a little cryberry bees,
- 1:19Speaker 3: including MESSI because they're sore losers. I hate that they
- 1:25Speaker 3: had no reason to be sore losers. They got killed
- 1:28Speaker 3: on that pitch.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Warner, Well maybe they don't speak English. Say what about
- 1:37Speaker 2: the football, Curtis, the real football? You know, no matter
- 1:42Speaker 2: what you've done in the NFL, they'll sign you. I mean,
- 1:48Speaker 2: look at this guy, Terry On Arnold. You gotta be kidding.
- 1:52Speaker 2: I want to see if somebody signs him. My gosh,
- 1:56Speaker 2: kidnapping and I mean get them. Well, look, you shouldn't
- 1:59Speaker 2: be surprise. Look at ray Lewis remember that? Oh yeah,
- 2:03Speaker 2: continue to play play played for the Ravens thirteen years
- 2:07Speaker 2: after being charged with double murder, and he settled out
- 2:11Speaker 2: of court with the deceased family. And he was also
- 2:15Speaker 2: charged and convicted of obstruction of justice. Oh man, I
- 2:21Speaker 2: mean this is that's the NFL, some people say. And oh,
- 2:24Speaker 2: by the way, Stefan Diggs is still a free agency
- 2:29Speaker 2: right now. So but some people say, instead of the
- 2:33Speaker 2: NFL standing for the National Football League, it should stand
- 2:37Speaker 2: for the National Felons League.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Correct.
- 2:41Speaker 3: And there was a time, Warner where you would indicate
- 2:45Speaker 3: every Cincinnati active Bengal.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but Curtison Kooby that's right.
- 2:52Speaker 3: And you would talk about how many of them had
- 2:55Speaker 3: bracelets on their ankles because they were under.
- 3:00Speaker 2: The introductions, right, instead of the numbers we list their crimes.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Oh, and it went on and on.
- 3:08Speaker 3: But let me talk about Medlife Stadium. Now that we
- 3:11Speaker 3: got MetLife Stadium back, we don't have to call it
- 3:14Speaker 3: New York New Jersey Stadium oofa FIFA. But the Jets
- 3:18Speaker 3: are depending on Geno Smith this season. I mean he's
- 3:22Speaker 3: been with us before, right, he's been with us before.
- 3:25Speaker 3: It did great with Seattle, did horrible with Las Vegas Raiders.
- 3:29Speaker 3: But he's involved in all kinds of mama drama down
- 3:33Speaker 3: in Florida where he lives. He's had speeding violations. You
- 3:37Speaker 3: know what I would say, what I would say to
- 3:41Speaker 3: the owners and operators of the Jets get him to
- 3:45Speaker 3: live up here near MetLife Stadium and get him the
- 3:49Speaker 3: hell out of that mama drama that's plaguing him in Florida.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't want him. By the way, you're talking
- 4:01Speaker 2: about quarterbacks, you see that ESPN came out with their
- 4:05Speaker 2: greatest one hundred NFL quarterbacks of all time. And by
- 4:11Speaker 2: the way, they also said that the Bears Khaleb Williams
- 4:15Speaker 2: was the best active quarterback today. You're gotta be kidding, man.
- 4:20Speaker 2: If I need a touchdown or a field goal with
- 4:22Speaker 2: two minutes to go, it's either Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen,
- 4:26Speaker 2: it's not Khaleb Williams. But as far as this all
- 4:30Speaker 2: time past quarterbacks, you know, it depends on what city
- 4:35Speaker 2: you're from and what era did he play. Okay, so
- 4:39Speaker 2: they say Tom Brady is the greatest, Well, yeah, especially
- 4:43Speaker 2: if you're from New England. But let me tell you something.
- 4:46Speaker 2: If you're from Baltimore in nineteen fifties and sixties, there's
- 4:50Speaker 2: only one guy, Johnny Unitas. And if you were from
- 4:54Speaker 2: San Francisco, Joe Montana is the greatest of all time.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Pittsburgh it would be Terry Bradshaw or Washington, Sonny Jurgensen,
- 5:04Speaker 2: Sammy Ball before him. And if you're from Cleveland, there
- 5:08Speaker 2: was no better quarterback than Otto Graham, who played ten years,
- 5:12Speaker 2: five in the AFL and five in the NFL, and
- 5:15Speaker 2: he was in championship game in all ten years. You know,
- 5:20Speaker 2: you can't don't give us that here's the greatest quarterbacker. No, no,
- 5:24Speaker 2: I don't bother that. By the way, you know, the
- 5:26Speaker 2: rules have changed, especially roughing the passer. I once asked
- 5:30Speaker 2: Johnny and Iidas who got mugged all the time because
- 5:34Speaker 2: they didn't call roughing the passer. I asked them about
- 5:37Speaker 2: today's game, and he said, when are the quarterbacks going
- 5:40Speaker 2: to start wearing dresses? Yeah? I mean that's the way
- 5:47Speaker 2: it was.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Hey, you know, hey, real quick, I'm looking up and
- 5:49Speaker 1: down this list. You mentioned Terry Bradshaw. I don't see
- 5:52Speaker 1: him in the top one hundred. I mean the number
- 5:55Speaker 1: one job of a quarterback.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Is to win, right, Yeah, from Pittsburgh, I mean four
- 5:59Speaker 2: Super Bowls, that's it. He's the greatest quarterback of all
- 6:02Speaker 2: time if you're from Pittsburgh, hands down, period. And I
- 6:06Speaker 2: don't know these guys. You got to get these voters
- 6:09Speaker 2: out of there, get them out, wake them up. So
- 6:13Speaker 2: and I'm about the stooge of the week man the
- 6:17Speaker 2: commissioner the w NBA, Kathy Engelbert. Remember she didn't find
- 6:23Speaker 2: or suspend Allison Thomas for punching Caitlin Clark in the throat. Well,
- 6:29Speaker 2: we now now find out that Engelhart apparently received a
- 6:34Speaker 2: phone call from NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, who told him
- 6:40Speaker 2: told her told her Engelhart to do, so that's all
- 6:44Speaker 2: there is to it. I mean, what did Thomas have
- 6:47Speaker 2: to do choke Clark to get at least a foul?
- 6:51Speaker 3: Oh man, man, I'm telling you wanna the WNBA. She
- 6:56Speaker 3: is the goose that laid the golden egg. And some
- 7:00Speaker 3: of these players are going out of their way to
- 7:03Speaker 3: destroy their income, to destroy all the eyeballs they get
- 7:07Speaker 3: every time Caitlin Clark gets on the hardwood.
- 7:10Speaker 1: But the league has to do something too. The league
- 7:12Speaker 1: has to step in here.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Yeah, she's their meal to She's the w NBA meal
- 7:17Speaker 2: ticket for the other players, and they just don't get it.
- 7:22Speaker 2: And hey, real quick man, how about that All Star
- 7:27Speaker 2: Game and the home run hitting contest last week? Both bogus?
- 7:32Speaker 2: Oh man, you know you had the sixty three year
- 7:34Speaker 2: old father throwing meatballs down the middle. All Star Game
- 7:43Speaker 2: twenty seven strakeouts. You know what, I would take the
- 7:46Speaker 2: All Star Game off TV and show highlights of games
- 7:51Speaker 2: of the past, like you know, Demigio and Mays and
- 7:55Speaker 2: Mantle and Jackie Robinson, Ted Williams Aaron and show the
- 7:59Speaker 2: kids how the game should.
- 8:01Speaker 3: Be played right, or just go to the old home
- 8:04Speaker 3: run Baseball Man where you'd see two of the best
- 8:07Speaker 3: who would team off on one another. But anyway, Warner,
- 8:10Speaker 3: it's time for us to say bye bye, same time,
- 8:13Speaker 3: same place next week. Warner Wolf up next. Remember that
- 8:18Speaker 3: song Pallas h Park Swings all Day and after Dark
- 8:21Speaker 3: was done by Freddie Cannon. Unfortunately he's passed away.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Hins run High.
