• 1:45
  Speaker 8: brought to you by the Dollar Floor Store. We're joined
• 1:48
  Speaker 8: in studio by Rusty Berson. I've been out of uh
• 1:53
  Speaker 8: uh contact, but not with Rusty uh. We we have
• 1:59
  Speaker 8: been in content contact over the weeks that I've been gone.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: It hasn't been a great four weeks, Rusty, it's not
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: a great four weeks. It hasn't been a great days.
• 2:10
  Speaker 8: I don't know if you're listening, but I said before
• 2:13
  Speaker 8: we went to break, I thought they played really good
• 2:16
  Speaker 8: baseball against Tampa. Tampa's a really good baseball team, and
• 2:19
  Speaker 8: and I think they played really good baseball, and they.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Had a chance to win all three all three games,
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: and they know they won the first game, and then the.
• 2:27
  Speaker 8: Second was just and I thought that was the I
• 2:29
  Speaker 8: thought that that started the downfall because they remember, Tampa
• 2:34
  Speaker 8: made two incredible catches, every weird bounced break, every call
• 2:40
  Speaker 8: that happened was just like on the edge.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: And that's that's again. But that's the difference in a.
• 2:47
  Speaker 8: Playoff team and not a playoff team at least right now,
• 2:50
  Speaker 8: because Tampa. You get those breaks, right, and Tampa made
• 2:54
  Speaker 8: a couple of those breaks. And I thought Tampa played good,
• 2:57
  Speaker 8: but I thought Texas played good baseball say that this weekend.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: No, they didn't play in baseball this weekend. Uh, Saturday
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: night was okay.
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: But anyway, So what I think about that series is
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: the kind of the most bizarre game. The final game,
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: in the afternoon game, So mckimseiy's doors on the mount,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: he gives up three hits.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, three hits the whole game. Homberg double homer, homer,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: double home, three to nothing first inning, a no hitter, right,
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: And did you know this. I don't know if you
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: heard this, but the Rangers had four doubles. So yes,
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: so so the Rangers had four doubles, no singles in
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: the game for the first time since twenty twelve. Yeah, yeah,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: no singles. Crazy game both teams. I mean, what are
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: the odds of that that?
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: They are very slim?
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: And you know, the Rangers had chances late in that
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: game and they lost the one run game. But yet,
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: so what what's dis pointed about Houston was the way
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: evolved into gromd pitch, no doubt, because they.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Set it up. They did, they set they set it
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: up quite frankly, I.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Thought Rocker was pretty decent yesterday was yeah, I mean
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: he got doesn't have any defensive help.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: No, no, not at all. I mean but cole Win,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: my gosh, that guy just driving me crazy. Did you
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: see what he just was watching Burger make that play? Yeah,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: you're not. You might want to cover a slow roll.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: And break Yesterday, like every single break, Evan Carter crushes
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: a ball right and they make a great catch. Taylor
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Tremail makes a great catch.
• 4:33
  Speaker 8: Was it Osuna who made the play that brought the
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: ball back over the wall on Saturday?
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: That was Saturday?
• 4:38
  Speaker 8: That was That was a unbelievable play. All should have
• 4:43
  Speaker 8: won the game, actually unbelievable.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Cole Win has the wild pitch and Jordan give jord
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: On all the credit in the world for breaking on
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: there and scoring on a wild pitch that.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: You can get every Yes, he did.
• 4:56
  Speaker 8: But I just I don't understand why they keep rolling
• 5:00
  Speaker 8: the baseball to your done.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: I don't need a chip.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: I don't said, I don't get that, but my hope
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: and I don't care what the same situation is.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: I don't care if he's leading off at in it.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I was screaming Saturday night. All the fans around me,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: walk him, walk him. They were laughing. I don't do it.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: They didn't do it, So I don't get it. I
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: don't get it either.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm gonna, I'm gonna make up of
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: comparisons to him. I'm and throw it out at you, okay,
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: because I mean, you've got more baseball experience than me.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Could you got a couple of years on me?
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Right, I got a couple So in my lifetime, I'm
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: gonna throw out a few names I've seen on this
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: incredible streak, right, Okay, see what you think about this
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: Miguel Cabrera when he was absolutely in his rushing, just
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: almost couldn't get him out bonds, I mean, walk him,
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: get him out.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, and he could keep a.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: Ball in play that was like nearest chest right, he
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: could throw at him and he's still keep the ball.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, He's hit everything.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: And then may maybe nowadays, I don't know, if you
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: throw Tommy in there, but it's too soon.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Maybe, I don't know.
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: I mean he's special, right, I mean he can do
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: some very us even if he never pitches again.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, I think he's just a real He's incredible. Yeah.
• 6:15
  Speaker 8: The role that that you're done is on is it's amazing.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: So even Reggie Jackson would strike out a lot, right,
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: he would in those days strikeouts that you know, nobody
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: cared about it. Actually in those days they did well,
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: but you're right they did. But like Reggie Jackson was
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: a strikeout. He was an all or nothing. He wasn't
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: all or nothing guy. He killed the Rangers. He rose
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: was an incredible hitter, but he wasn't going to hit
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: for power very often.
• 6:41
  Speaker 8: I tell you, uh that I've told you this before.
• 6:44
  Speaker 8: The best hitter I ever saw was Tony Quinn. His
• 6:50
  Speaker 8: statistics just on on contact, walking, striking out or just
• 6:57
  Speaker 8: other worldly. He had the best and I coordination. I
• 7:01
  Speaker 8: guess you know.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: I never.
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: I never got to see uh Boston Red Sox.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I'm going Ted. I never got to see Ted Williams.
• 7:15
  Speaker 8: I'm told that his hand eye coordination was unlike anyone
• 7:18
  Speaker 8: that's ever played together. Right, I think Tony gwyn was
• 7:22
  Speaker 8: right there. If you were gone would win the triple
• 7:24
  Speaker 8: crowd off.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: The season ended today and Meggie was the last guy
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: to do it. I think. Yeah.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: So, I mean he's he is right now like Miggie
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: in his prime. And you know what another guy, since
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: you brought Tony Gwynn up, Luisa Rise, has that approach.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: And I'm not saying he's anywhere near Tony, but I
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: love his approach.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get the battle of the ball. I'm gonna
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: put the ball in play. I'm not gonna overswing anything.
• 7:50
  Speaker 8: It's a It's so since you brought this up. What
• 7:54
  Speaker 8: we were praising the Rangers for just a week ago
• 7:57
  Speaker 8: was situational.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Hitting, right, and they were they were great.
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: They they did every in that homestand they did everything,
• 8:05
  Speaker 8: and they didn't.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Win all the games, but it took three out of
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: fourth Mariners. Yeah, and I mean they lost tow out
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: three White Sox, but I got you, Yeah.
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: That that Mariners series, they were the best they've been
• 8:16
  Speaker 8: all year in my opinion, in situational hitting. And and
• 8:21
  Speaker 8: now as the pressure ratchets up they lose that one
• 8:26
  Speaker 8: game in Tampa, then I just feel like they've been
• 8:30
  Speaker 8: just hacking since.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: The Burger is probably the worst of it. Yes, I
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: mean he's gone.
• 8:34
  Speaker 8: From like and and and you know, I know Siegar
• 8:37
  Speaker 8: had a couple of hits.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: He had a couple struckouts, Yes, but he did, and
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: they're just wild strikeouts.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so left against him. He was swinging out, you know,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: just chasing. He was looking to do something that he
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: wanted to put the team on his back instead of
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: getting the base hit and give it to the nice guy.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: But he's capable of doing that. Yeah.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: And Peterson had a bad day too yesterday, although he's
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: been pretty darmed.
• 9:02
  Speaker 8: I think I think they have given the chance Peterson
• 9:06
  Speaker 8: may have done something yesterday.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Why why are.
• 9:10
  Speaker 8: They questioning calls in the first four innings and running
• 9:14
  Speaker 8: out of.
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: That that's a good chance, good call, I mean, it's
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: a it's a good question from you because that was
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: a key moment. Then there's a huge moment, huge and
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: Nikki Lopez clearly took a ball. He did, but you're
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: out of challenges and you're out of town. Why skip
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: got tossed? Being there, my son filmed the whole thing.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: He took a pause for God bless America. At least
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: he showed respect, and then he came right back out
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: and just was ripping on himself. Yeah, you can't you've
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: got to be careful of those those abs challenges, and
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: especially not to use them so early in the game,
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: because that's what I've.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Seen him used in the first inning before.
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I have to and there's nothing on the line, nothing,
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: so it's like, well, you take it, bad call.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: On the first so let me ask you it.
• 10:05
  Speaker 8: As much as I can tell, the managers have pretty
• 10:09
  Speaker 8: much given players free reign catchers.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: I think they've cats.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: I think they've got to pulled that back from I
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: think the Batters still have pretty much free rain, but
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: I think they've taken it away from the pictures for
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: the most part.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: The pictures are the worst at it. Yeah, and so
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: they except for the kid from Boston last night. Oh yeah,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: that was just that was crazy. He's terrible.
• 10:36
  Speaker 8: It was just down the middle and he's tapping his
• 10:40
  Speaker 8: eye never mightys go what are you doing?
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: It was just nuts.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: Actually, So yesterday, to make a real long story is you.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Were you were at both games. You were at game
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Saturday night.
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: And so we spent the night Saturday night because I
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: didn't want to drive back and then turn right back
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: around for an afternoon.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: So he went to game with some friends on Saturday night,
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: stayed the night and then my son and my daughter
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: in law met us at the game for Sunday afternoon.
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: So we get food through the game.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Four o'clock.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Well, my daughter and son in law were flying in
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: from a wedding internationally into inter continents.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, so flight over there are supposed to come in
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: five feet.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: Well they have to go through customs and then so
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: it's like six forty five and we get them and
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: then my son they wanted to meet my son and
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: daughter in.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Law a restaurant in Houston. So it just a long,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: long day.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: It would have been better at that to what Yes,
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: And so I walk into a restaurant in Houston, and
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: you know, of course they've got every one of the
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: waitresses wearing an Astros jerseys and they're like.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Hey, how'd the game go to that? Yeah, you just
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: lost your tip.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: Anyway, Hey, I can't say anything like I said, I
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: texted my friend with a white flagged last night.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: It's like, hey, nothing you can say.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, But like you said at the start, there is
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: I have no reason to really like hope that it's
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: going to change, but there's also no reason for it
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: not to.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: In this division, So that's the thing I'm just going
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: to see.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: I want to see what happens when they get Cody
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: Bradford back where they use him. Man, who is calc
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: Quintreill pitching to night? He's okay, Yeah, I like him
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: in long relief. But what happens if you get Jordan
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: Montgomery back, and you get Cody Bradford back, and then
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: a little ways down the road, if you get Jack Lyder.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: You can use those guys in the bullpen and alleviate
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: some of those really bad leaders.
• 12:43
  Speaker 8: You can Sayider coming back would be a really big deal.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: It would be.
• 12:47
  Speaker 8: But but you here's the thing. After guys have been
• 12:50
  Speaker 8: on the I L and especially long time back, it
• 12:54
  Speaker 8: takes time, you know. And it's Josh Well, look at
• 12:58
  Speaker 8: Josh Young. He was playing really good Bay. You know,
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: he was hitting everything. Well, now he's been out and
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: he's going to be out apparently according to the manager,
• 13:06
  Speaker 8: for a little while longer right on that calf issue. Man, Yeah,
• 13:09
  Speaker 8: I know, but you I can't expect him to come
• 13:13
  Speaker 8: back and just pick up where he left off.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Although it was kind of cool, you know, singer's hitting
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: what a buck eighty.
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: Two singer in his first that bat though, you know
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: Friday night, Yes, I had two hits on Saturday and
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: he did. I was like, so, I mean he's not
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: hitting for power yet, but I mean you're getting some
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: decent that bat.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. Nicky Lopez has been a great,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: fun unbelievable, I mean unbelievable.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: He's been a really clutch performer for him, talk about
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: bat on ball.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: So they got another relief. They got a reliever today
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: right from Toronto Maco. Yeah.
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: Right, and he's got five years of I mean club,
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: I mean they control him for five years. Yeah, whereas
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: Josh Smith probably needed a new start somewhere.
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and now you know, like he was really good
• 13:59
  Speaker 8: the last couple of years and surprisingly good.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 14:04
  Speaker 8: I hate how the how it ended. He got mendigitis.
• 14:07
  Speaker 8: For goodness sakes, I know, he was really sick.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: That's a horrible thing.
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: And and never he wasn't real good before that, and
• 14:16
  Speaker 8: obviously coming out of that, you know, he couldn't hit.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: The Rangers still won that trade.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Head up Joey Gallowa Joel Gallo for Ezekiel Duram. Yes,
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: I mean duran.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Is is in my mind behind Lats. The team MVP
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: that I'm with you there, Yeah, totally.
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's been he's been phenomenally. He's played like seven positions.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: He's the thirteen catchers. Yeah, I mean he's he's been
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: really good. Yeah, I mean he does some clutch things defensively.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: You know, he's been good on both sides.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: Faces were loaded yesterday. I think he made a really
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: nice play third, you know.
• 14:52
  Speaker 8: And yeah, no, he's he's been good. But like I said,
• 14:55
  Speaker 8: besides lats, he's he's the team MVP.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know what, Qui rang, I'm really glad
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: they didn't trade last because you you don't get anything
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: for a reliever. Let's see breaking news.
• 15:12
  Speaker 8: Yes, but I gotta I've got to educate standing with
• 15:15
  Speaker 8: a breaking news sounders.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: That's okay, I will do that. Uh.
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: The Padres have acquired Casey Mice from the Tigers.
• 15:23
  Speaker 9: Wow.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: The Tigers are just.
• 15:26
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 15:27
  Speaker 8: And that's the other thing that I said today, Rusty,
• 15:30
  Speaker 8: you don't just because it's a trading deadline, that don't
• 15:33
  Speaker 8: mean that you have to trade people.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: I think that's a great point.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: The Rangers made a fairly good trade last year, not
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: altering life altering by any means, but to get Demo
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: for sim In was a good trade for the Rangers. Yes,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: And you can do that in the off season. You're
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: typically you get more value in the off season right
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: now than you do.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: It's trade, I'll tell you what.
• 15:52
  Speaker 8: And I continue to go back to this, because the
• 15:55
  Speaker 8: Rangers defensively have not been clean. All your block and
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: and and and a lot of that is at at
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: second base. Yeah, you gave up. You gave up a
• 16:08
  Speaker 8: lot of defense, a gold Glove defender right for for
• 16:12
  Speaker 8: more offense and apparently for a really good presence in
• 16:15
  Speaker 8: the clubhouse. You know, Nemo, Cubs highly regarded.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Simon was very reserved. He was, he was, but man,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: he was a great fielder. He was. And that's you know,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: you've had a hole.
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: But you mentioned Lopez, who's been steady.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: You know he has. It's just they haven't.
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: Played Cleanton baseball, among other things. And when you're five
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: hundred or right there and everybody's five hundred, you're talking
• 16:42
  Speaker 8: about some you know, wins and losses that are going
• 16:47
  Speaker 8: to be a really thin margin.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: And I think Burger has been a liability for the
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: most part, no.
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: Doubt, he's been a big liability at first.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: I mean he's a big gay with power, streaky hitter,
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: but he's not very versatile. No, he's not doesn't make
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: a lot of eight plays. I mean I thought Nathaniel
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: Lowe was a lot better defend he was, and he
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: didn't come in as a very good defender.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Right, but he he may work pretty good.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and he was pretty good defender twenty twenty three,
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty four. But you know, I mean obviously, like
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: we talked about earlier, he had the career year in
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty three.
• 17:17
  Speaker 8: So when you have Evaldi and and de gram who
• 17:22
  Speaker 8: who still have really good stuff, I don't you have
• 17:30
  Speaker 8: to keep them or are or get something you can
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: kind of get a starter from me.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: You have to get and how do you do that? Yeah?
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: I think you have to go to the off season
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: see if you can get a starter the guy who
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: has the really good stuff. To me, it just so
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: frustrated Kinsey Gore. I mean, because like we talked about earlier,
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: he can throw it, he can throw it, and then
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: one inning, basically every single game, he has one inning
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: where he just goes loopy.
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: Like you know, I think Lighter has really good Rocker
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: does too. And Rocker has good stuff.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: It's just getting the mover of the hump. And I
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: think Rockers made a lot of progress.
• 18:05
  Speaker 8: He's made a lot of progress this month. Okay, Racers
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: is not going to he'll drive you crazy.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah he will. But he pitch pretty well.
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: I mean, he's made no problem with his last few starts.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: He managed some difficult situations because the Astro's got some
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: really cheap hits yesterday, Yes, and he managed it and
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: nothing flusters him. It's one thing I like about him is,
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: you know, you see the emotions with Vivaldi and you
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: see a lighter Rockers like. He's pretty even so even yeah,
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: nothing seems so.
• 18:38
  Speaker 8: This is the second year that the Graham has really
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: not had a lot of issues, right right, I mean,
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: which is remarkable given his history. And I'm and they've
• 18:51
  Speaker 8: gotten innings from him, yep, you know.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: They've gotten innings on Saturday Night.
• 18:55
  Speaker 8: But this year he's just given up long palls two really.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Especially in the first inning. It's just been so ridiculous.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: I mean there, I don't think he still has it.
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: But for a while, like eighteen games into the season
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: at home, he had a nine ERA in the first inning.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Well I know that means you're giving up a run
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: like every other game. It's like, geez, I don't know,
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: and most of our home runs.
• 19:27
  Speaker 8: So the other thing I've I've read and I don't
• 19:30
  Speaker 8: disagree with when you see now what the Dodgers have
• 19:33
  Speaker 8: done again was scuball.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: You pay five hundred money.
• 19:38
  Speaker 8: You're going to get a five hundred team, right. Yeah,
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: they's not forty million off the payroll this year, right,
• 19:45
  Speaker 8: and it shows I realized last year they weren't very
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: very good either.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: No, they were eighty one and eighty one. Yeah, I
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: mean it's a five hundred team.
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you're you're exactly right. It goes back
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: to you often you get what you pay for, not always.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: Look what the Mets paid for continually. Yeah, and then
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: they just their fire sale today, right.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: So they're the Mets and they do that. And you know,
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: the the Yankees have spent a lot before and have
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: done well.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: They have.
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: The Angels have spent more than anybody, and they have
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: like they sold today to they don't have any pieces left.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: But right this old Soriano today who had a starter.
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: You know, it was a really good starter for them.
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: But yeah, most of the cases that means to me,
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: what amazes me about the Dodgers is that how they've
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: developed so many prospects drafting the late Yes, right, yes, because.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: I don't envy. That's a good point. I don't dislike
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers because they got all this thing. I don't either.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: I don't hate it all because I salute them for
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: for evaluating.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: And I just said, look, the people that are mad
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: write a check. Oh, we don't have the money. We're
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: not in that market.
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: I'm gonna pull everybody's got money because the TV, you know,
• 21:03
  Speaker 8: everyone has a stack of chips to play with us.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: What are you going to do with them?
• 21:08
  Speaker 8: And the Dodgers have obviously what well, they've outspin everybody. Well,
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: you know what, so did the Mets, as you mentioned,
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: so of the Yankees, as you mentioned.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: That doesn't buy you titles.
• 21:19
  Speaker 8: You've you've you've got to develop, you've got to manage,
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: You've got to create, uh some some clubhouse chemistry.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: And I realized that and you got to be creative.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: You have to be creative. The whole thing is so creative.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: With a contract that did Yeah, and then again, so
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: like I remember when Walker Bruhler was their number one prospect, untouchable.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, well they let him go after after he'd done
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: his time. Seeger was untouchable earlier. Well, they didn't resign
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: him because they didn't need because they had the prospects
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: coming up.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: And that's the way you build them. He's like, so
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: the Astros built a dynasty with great draft picks.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, they did.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: They haven't been able to keep them. Now, they're still
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: pretty good team. They haven't fallen off tremendously. But the
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: windows closing, I mean, they weren't able to retain all
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: those guys, the Tuckers and the Springers, the guys that
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: made them that twenty seventeen and twenty two teams that
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: were so dominant.
• 22:15
  Speaker 8: I just saw And it may have been Evan Grant
• 22:19
  Speaker 8: who wrote this, but this happens every year. When a
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: team wins, the price goes up, Right, when a team
• 22:28
  Speaker 8: wins a lot, then the price of the players goes
• 22:32
  Speaker 8: up and he goes for whatever reason, owners he don't
• 22:39
  Speaker 8: like it, right, and it's like, well, are you building
• 22:43
  Speaker 8: a team to win or you're not building a team
• 22:45
  Speaker 8: to win? Because the Dodgers payroll is outrageous, right, yeah
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: it is.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: But they structured it.
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: But not only they structured it, but they as you mentioned,
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: they've developed around the core, continuing, they continue to bring
• 23:02
  Speaker 8: players in and they continue to be successful. And again,
• 23:06
  Speaker 8: if all it took was to write a check, then
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: somebody would have challenged them by now, because people are
• 23:14
  Speaker 8: spending money.
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and to a degree, the Rangers philosophy when they
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: went in to build that twenty twenty three World Series
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: is I'm gonna go spend a lot of money.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: On course, eager Marcus Simmons, Jacob and.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: They did, and they did, and we're gonna hope some
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: of these young pieces Adules Garcia around, Jonah him, you know,
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: the guys we've already talked about, Nathaniel Lowe.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: We hope that they come back in Leodi Tavers, those
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: kind of guys. Leodi had a great year that year.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: That was the only year did But I mean in
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: like all the little pieces that came together.
• 23:46
  Speaker 8: Did you see the lineup I sent you from twenty twelve, Yeah, and.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: You know what I almost sent you back though. That
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: one was an incredible lineup. It was I think is
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: as good as Nice seven ninety nine.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Those team.
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: One of those guys like Kevin Elster was batting three
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: hundred and number nine.
• 24:04
  Speaker 8: I can go back to some teams in the seventies
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: were losing ninety games, and you're going, how did this
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: team lose like that?
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: They were unbelievable.
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: I heard an interesting stat about Rangers leadoff hitters.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Okay, so you've been around the Rangers a long time.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: So Jock Peterson has more leadoff home runs for the
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: Rangers this year than anybody since. To be big towel, no,
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: that's a good guess. You have to go further back,
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: further back than not to be big down a guy
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: who was in his rookie year, Oh, good gosh, leadoff, leadoff. Yeah,
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: he didn't stay leadoff. Mickey Rivers, he didn't stay lead off. Now,
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: Mike Hargrove, no way, seriously, the human reign delay, human
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: reiin delay battle leadoff during his rookie year and he
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: had he had seven leadoff home runs that year.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I think Peterson's got six this year or something like that.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: But yeah, good gosh, not your traditional leadoff hitter, ain't
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: gonna steal you any bases.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: But hey, Jack.
• 25:09
  Speaker 8: Peterson is not your traditional leadoff hitter.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: No, he's not. I mean there's no speed. Hargrove and
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: Peterson had about the same speed, didn't that.
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: And that's the other thing you know there this You
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: you look at Burger, you look at Peterson and a
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: couple of these guys and and just athletically it doesn't
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: look right. Yeah, well one of those guys is gonna
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: be first base pretty much every night. And it's just
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: not there's not a lot of athleticism over there.
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: And they they have gotten production, I will say this,
• 25:44
  Speaker 8: you know they they in terms of runs produced. RBI's
• 25:50
  Speaker 8: some pop from the from that position.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you another They've been very fortunate with another
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: guy at least Diaz.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, that guy has been really good.
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: But he's the one that did that the too early abs.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Yes he did.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: I'm mad at him for that.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: He's been pretty good except for but he is and
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: he hasn't been real good on on those abs.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Is either, I will say this, not as good as
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: Higgy was. He was really good at those And he's hurt, right, Yeah,
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: he's hurt. Is he out? I don't think he's out permanently.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: But here's a question, is like they traded for o'hoppy
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: and they still got Austin Wins.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: I don't understand why they got.
• 26:29
  Speaker 8: Wedgs and Wedgs is in the lineup again to not No.
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: Ninety one, he's in the lineup. They've already posted the lineup.
• 26:35
  Speaker 8: But but what was significant about that? Evan posted the
• 26:38
  Speaker 8: lineup and I realized that it could change. But the
• 26:43
  Speaker 8: bottom line is all all the guys that you're hearing
• 26:46
  Speaker 8: that could be, you know, quote traded, they're all in
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: the lineup tonight against San Francisco. So that that tells
• 26:54
  Speaker 8: me that unless something really weird happens. And the trade deadline,
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: by the way, ended twenty five minutes ago, but that
• 27:01
  Speaker 8: doesn't mean there there aren't trades that haven't been announced
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: or haven't been made usually.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: For like an hour after at least at least all Right,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: we're going to take a break.

  Speaker 4: making more because Lebron took like such a reduced inkame
• 33:08

• 44:52
  Speaker 8: for three from the three.
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: All right, So there you go.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: I'll take it if he If he can hit sixty
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: six percent of his three point shots this year, that's
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: your what high school math there, Richardson, Richardson, not that, Okay,
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: I'm telling you. If he can shoot sixty six percent
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: from three point land, I think.
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: I think they're gonna be pretty good. He can play.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: I think he can play.
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, especially since they're playing Duke today, So well, what's.
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: It, Duke.
• 45:20
  Speaker 8: Don't get confused. It's just Victoria. But hey, they're playing yep,
• 45:24
  Speaker 8: they're playing football starts this week.
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: They report, Oh wow, yeah, oh so you know what
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: I got. I gotta tell you this.
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: Because you're a radio guy, you'll appreciate this. I listened
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: occasionally to the Dallas for or sports radio. Yes, well,
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: I mean there's several of them, but I listened to one, O, five, three, Okay,
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: I listened to him throughout.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: It's kind of hack. That's the flagship for the Rangers, right.
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: So I have it on a lot of times background
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: while I'm working doing stuff, you know. So it's like
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: a lot of time to do it, building website stuff,
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: and so I don't really have to be totally focused in.
• 45:57
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so I always have it in. So I think
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: I heard the worst radio segment I ever heard today.
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: Uh oh, So the Cowboys had their first padded practice today. Yes,
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: and they had two guys out there commenting on the
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: plays like it was almost play by play for practice.
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: But you understand this is Dallas, right, Yes, and I'm like,
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: it's driving me crazy. It's the trade now. They did
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: a lot of trade deadline to talk today. Yeah. But
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: it's always amazing to me.
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: It's like the Cowboys are have not been to a
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: super Bowl in thirty years, and they haven't won more
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: than one playoff game in thirty years, and it doesn't matter.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, so two days they're out theres comenty live
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: on this thing.
• 46:41
  Speaker 8: CNN is doing a show called Decades and Sports, So
• 46:47
  Speaker 8: they had the last night was the seventies. I went
• 46:51
  Speaker 8: back and watched the sixties. So what was what was
• 46:55
  Speaker 8: interesting about that is they they did the major sports
• 46:59
  Speaker 8: high lights for those decades, right when it was Olympics
• 47:03
  Speaker 8: didn't matter the sports, just things that stood out. So
• 47:07
  Speaker 8: you said you watched the sixties. I watched the sixties
• 47:09
  Speaker 8: and the seventies. There are an hour long shows. So
• 47:13
  Speaker 8: what stood out. One of the things that that stood
• 47:17
  Speaker 8: out was the Steelers, you know, playing the Cowboys, and
• 47:22
  Speaker 8: they had Drew Pearson commenting and and it was just
• 47:27
  Speaker 8: it was painful to watch, yep, because those were the
• 47:31

  Speaker 2: that up. You know what nobody could.
• 48:14
  Speaker 8: I mean, that was just and Drew Pearson just said,
• 48:17
  Speaker 8: you know, it was just he beat us, you know,
• 48:20
  Speaker 8: he just he beat us. And and and it was
• 48:23
  Speaker 8: like Bradshaw's throwing it up and he's just going and
• 48:27
  Speaker 8: getting it and it didn't matter. People were hanging on
• 48:30
  Speaker 8: him and and and he made it look so elegant,
• 48:36
  Speaker 8: you know, just this and these hands and this how
• 48:40
  Speaker 8: he torqued his body.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: And it was just the.
• 48:43
  Speaker 4: Steelers had the intimidation factor to Jack Lambert was a
• 48:46
  Speaker 4: Lambert guy.
• 48:48
  Speaker 8: Mean, Joe Green he was well, but men, Joe Green
• 48:51
  Speaker 8: wasn't that mean right?
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: You're right? He was on the field, he was, he was.
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: But I mean Jack Lambert with a toothless like scow
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: at you. I mean those guys, Oh yeah, they were bad.
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: They were something of the Steel curtain.
• 49:05
  Speaker 11: Man.
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: They were bad men. They were really really intimidating that
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: they were.
• 49:10
  Speaker 8: They won, They won four and six years.
• 49:12
  Speaker 4: I remember watching them play the Vikings in the Super
• 49:15
  Speaker 4: Bowl and that was in Houston.
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: They wasn't that the game in Houston at Rice Stadium? Yeah? Yeah,
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: I just drove by there last week.
• 49:23
  Speaker 8: I was at a doctor's visit and I told my wife,
• 49:27
  Speaker 8: I said, man, I'm miss coming to Rice Stadium, you know,
• 49:29
  Speaker 8: because it was it was an old fashioned stadium in
• 49:33
  Speaker 8: the best sense of the word. They had great sight lines.
• 49:36
  Speaker 8: I called games from there. I covered games, you know, A, A,
• 49:40
  Speaker 8: and M would be there. I went as a fan there.
• 49:44
  Speaker 8: I love that stadium. I said, can you believe that
• 49:46
  Speaker 8: stadium hosted a Super Bowl?
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: Because there's no parking. It's right in the middle of Houston,
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: right in the middle of the Rice campus.
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: And I said, can you believe that this stadium hosted
• 49:57
  Speaker 4: a Super Bowl? I covered a several high school games there. Yeah,
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: in that monstrous stadium. Yeah, and you had like two
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: thousand people studded Rice, right.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You had the mob band and that's about it.
• 50:09
  Speaker 8: I love the mob band. I just loved the mom
• 50:13
  Speaker 8: they were created.
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: They were so good, they were very very they were
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: just back to your seventies.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: So the Steelers.
• 50:20
  Speaker 8: So the Steelers, you know that that kind of stood
• 50:23
  Speaker 8: out as a team that had been terrible for fifty
• 50:27
  Speaker 8: years and then won four Super Bowls and you know
• 50:29
  Speaker 8: six years uh, those were you know, not not great memories.
• 50:34
  Speaker 8: The immaculate reception against Oakland. I remember exactly where I
• 50:39
  Speaker 8: was at my grandmother's house, you know, because it was
• 50:42
  Speaker 8: it was right before Christmas.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: I believe.
• 50:46
  Speaker 8: Uh. The sixties, of course they had the Ice Bowl,
• 50:50
  Speaker 8: and they always talk about the Ice Bowl, you know,
• 50:54
  Speaker 8: but what they don't talk about it was a much
• 50:57
  Speaker 8: better game in the Cotton Bowl. You know that that
• 51:01
  Speaker 8: thirty four to twenty seven game was just heartbreaking.
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: It was heartbreaking, you know. So our ears are a
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: little different.
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: So the seventies I remember very well, and I remember,
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: of course, I remember the Cowboys beating the Broncos and
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: that was a huge deal in my lifetime.
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: In seventy seven, yeah, yeah, so it was a year
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: after they lost to Steelers and they in.
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: An Orange crush and Harvey Martin was I still see
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: him hitting Craig Morton, you know. And so Harvey Martin
• 51:33
  Speaker 4: and had Too Tall Jones were co MVPs that day.
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: But what broke my heart was the eighties and how
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: close they were three years in a row. It's like
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: the Eagles, the Redskins, and of course the Niners.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: I mean Niners was the killer.
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: Oh Drew Pearson was so close to breaking the tackle
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: at the end after Dwight Clark's catch right, yes, I mean,
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: so it just if you had.
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: Oh, he was so close, the guy gotten by the jersey.
• 52:02
  Speaker 8: Andy White was that close to being up one of
• 52:05
  Speaker 8: the legendary cowboy quarterbacks, a hero, and you know.
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: He didn't play well against the Redskins. Great great punter
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: by the way, Oh fantastic, I mean, and a really
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: good guy.
• 52:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah he you know, three years in a row they're
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: in an NFC title game, and the course after that
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: they disappeared, and then they had the nineties, which I
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: was still really into. So I was too the Jimmy
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: Johnson the era, you know when they came back, and
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: you know, I was really interested in watching jim I
• 52:37
  Speaker 4: remember the first year of Jimmy.
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: It was pretty hard to watch, right.
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: You can get over there on your asthma fields, right,
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: get over there and have your asthma.
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: But you know when they got the thing rolling, like
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Mike Leach with Craig james Son.
• 52:50
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, And so once they got that thing rolling though,
• 52:54
  Speaker 4: and the trades they made, the heirschel Walker trade. Will
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: never forget just all the players they got him and had.
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: Jerry just left it alone, just not gotten, so drunk
• 53:05
  Speaker 4: that he couldn't handle Jimmy getting more attention. That team
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: would have won at least they won more. Yeah, I
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: think that they would have lost. They lost one in.
• 53:16
  Speaker 8: The transition, but it made Switzer.
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: No, Switzer won. Switzer won one.
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: He beat the Steelers, right, but that team beat the
• 53:25
  Speaker 4: Steelers right well yeah, yeah, oh yeah, I think that
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: they could have won like at least maybe they might
• 53:30
  Speaker 4: have won five.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: It really good. Oh, they were so good in those.
• 53:34
  Speaker 8: Days before all of the cap stuff and all all that.
• 53:37
  Speaker 8: Their second team could have won a super Bowl exactly.
• 53:40
  Speaker 8: They were just loaded.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: But Jerry just got his ego just had to get
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: in the way.
• 53:47
  Speaker 8: Going back to the sixties real quick, is those those
• 53:53
  Speaker 8: two games that they lost to Green Bay. And they
• 53:55
  Speaker 8: talked about the merger right during the sixties. By the way,
• 53:59
  Speaker 8: today is Lance Allwards eighty sixth birthday, Bambie Arkansas's best,
• 54:06
  Speaker 8: the great Lance alwork.
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: He was phenomenal.
• 54:09
  Speaker 8: Anyway, I digress, But they talked about the Super Bowl.
• 54:12
  Speaker 8: They had Lamar Hunt up there. They talked about the merger.
• 54:15
  Speaker 8: They talked about Joe Willie of course, and and winning
• 54:20
  Speaker 8: that Super Bowl when when everybody thought because the first
• 54:25
  Speaker 8: two years the Packers just you know, they crunched Kansas City.
• 54:29
  Speaker 8: That was a really good Kansas City team that ended
• 54:31
  Speaker 8: up winning a Super Bowl, right, and they crunched Oakland,
• 54:34
  Speaker 8: and everybody goes, well, that's what we thought was going
• 54:36
  Speaker 8: to happen, you know, because the AFL was quote that
• 54:39
  Speaker 8: was an inferior league, right, right. But then Joe Willie
• 54:43
  Speaker 8: comes along at Beach Baltimore, you know, and that and
• 54:48
  Speaker 8: everything changed.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: Everything changed is Super Bowl three.
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: So, speaking of which, I got one book. I want
• 54:54
  Speaker 4: to throw it out, okay out to you. So it's
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: called The King of Diamonds. It's about the diamond thief
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: in Dallas in the fifties and sixties, robbing like high profile,
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: like the Nemon Marcus really, Clinton Murchison really, Oh, I
• 55:11
  Speaker 4: think you would love this. Is it new, it's relatively new.
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: It's Rena Peterson, who was a I know that name.
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: She was a reporter, Yes, at the Dallas Times, Yes,
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: And I know that name. The King of Diamonds is
• 55:25
  Speaker 4: one way. Okay, I read that recently. I thought, Okay,
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: Chip would love this.
• 55:29
  Speaker 8: I'm reading a book on Larry McMurtry right now, which
• 55:32
  Speaker 8: is really interesting.
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: I bet i'd be really interesting. But I just think
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: you would love that.
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: That sounds like a book because you would know basically
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: everybody they're talking about, all the neighborhoods in Dallas, Yes,
• 55:45
  Speaker 4: and this guy would was on the inside.
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: They never found it seriously seriously, and so he was
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: so on the inside.
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: He would know where the parties were and he would
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: rob the folks who were going.
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: To the party while they were gone.
• 55:58
  Speaker 4: And he must have been one to an athlete because
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: he was climbing in windows.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: He was like the pink panther burglar very much. So
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: look it up. Look it up. I'll send you a
• 56:08
