1:44

Speaker 4: Texas Tech Athletics director Kirby Hocutt released a statement defending
2:21
Speaker 4: the program's actions in the Brendan Soresby mess outlining the
2:27
Speaker 4: nuances of the situation. Then Joey maguire spoke about it.
2:32
Speaker 4: McGuire was meeting with fans was asked by the crowd,
2:35
Speaker 4: what if anything could happen to prevent sores Be from playing.
2:40
Speaker 4: He was cautious. The head coach said, playing in week
2:46
Speaker 4: three is still a stretch, telling Joseph Duarte of the
2:52
Speaker 4: Houston Chronicle he's recovering from an addiction. I've sat down
2:55
Speaker 4: with this young man, and what he's going through is serious.
3:00
Speaker 4: The Cinema echoes what ho Cut said in his statement,
3:04
Speaker 4: pointing out that he has two sons and has been
3:09
Speaker 4: asking himself what would he do. Well, apparently he let
3:14
Speaker 4: his sons play football if they were a good football player.
3:19
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna Delvin know everything that Hocut said. I'm
3:25
Speaker 4: sure it was written by a firm. He said, We're
3:32
Speaker 4: taking it one day at a time. We're evaluating his
3:35
Speaker 4: recovery compliance, watching him closely, deeply committed to his well being,
3:43
Speaker 4: not operating on blind faith, operating on a comprehensive clinical
3:50
Speaker 4: and compliance structure that we committed to before the court ruling,
3:58
Speaker 4: I said Hocut. I've heard the word in ten integrity
4:00
Speaker 4: used a great deal. As someone who has dedicated his career,
4:03
Speaker 4: I believe in integrity is central part of our success.
4:08
Speaker 4: I believe integrity applies on more than one front. The
4:13
Speaker 4: integrity of sport matters. So does the integrity of how
4:16
Speaker 4: we treat a twenty two year old who sought help,
4:18
Speaker 4: entered residential treatment, and is working every day toward recovery.
4:23
Speaker 4: Those two things don't have to conflict, he said. He
4:31
Speaker 4: understands the frustration. The situation is hard. We have ongoing conversations.
4:39
Speaker 4: We've always put students first. I mean, you've always put
4:44
Speaker 4: the welfare of the ws and LS first. But we'll
4:51
Speaker 4: talk with Scott about this coming up. Talking about it
4:55
Speaker 4: for a while. Colorado coach Dion Sanders says he experienced
5:03
Speaker 4: dark days during his fight with bladder cancer, and it
5:06
Speaker 4: kept him away from his team during spring training, threatening
5:09
Speaker 4: his future in coaching. He is recovering, says he's cancer free,
5:15
Speaker 4: thankful to be back to the Buffaloes. I've got my
5:19
Speaker 4: health back, I've got my swagger back. Dion until Good
5:22
Speaker 4: Morning America. Last year I was fighting cancer. Didn't know
5:27
Speaker 4: which way it was going to go. I am fully back.
5:30
Speaker 4: Last year at this time, it wasn't a good look.
5:35
Speaker 4: Sanders had also been fighting blood clots in his leg,
5:41
Speaker 4: had surgery for that, had two toes amputated while he
5:46
Speaker 4: was at Jackson State. Sanders saying, we fought the battle.
5:51
Speaker 4: We won the battle fighting cancer. I'm cancer free. I'm good.
5:55
Speaker 4: Great doctors in Colorado that had brought me through, God
5:57
Speaker 4: has brought me through. I'm thank full. I'm healthy, which
6:03
Speaker 4: is good news, I think for all of us who
6:06
Speaker 4: watched Dion and hard not to like Dion, at least
6:11
Speaker 4: from my perspective. If you're not watching the Stanley Cup Finals,
6:16
Speaker 4: you are missing just about everything that this sport has
6:21
Speaker 4: to offer. It has been a classic four games so far.
6:26
Speaker 4: The series is tied at two. Game five. The team's
6:31
Speaker 4: travel today Game five tomorrow night in Raleigh between the
6:37
Speaker 4: Golden Knights and the Hurricanes. Last night, Carolina evened the series.
6:43
Speaker 4: They took a three to one lead in the first period,
6:47
Speaker 4: they gave up the next three goals. This series has
6:51
Speaker 4: been like this every game, it seems. Then the Hurricanes
6:55
Speaker 4: scored with about ten minutes to play to make at
6:58
Speaker 4: four to three, and scored an empty netter with less
7:01
Speaker 4: than two minutes left five three the final. There have
7:07
Speaker 4: been a lot of goals scored. It has been exciting.
7:10
Speaker 4: There has been back and forth. These teams are evenly matched.
7:17
Speaker 4: We're going to hear from Jordan Stall, the captain and
7:21
Speaker 4: leading goal scorer who had two last night, in just
7:24
Speaker 4: a moment. We will hear from him. Rangers Royals again tonight.
7:33
Speaker 4: McKenzie gore on the mound. The Rangers are now zero
7:38
Speaker 4: and six in games in which they were trying to
7:43
Speaker 4: reach five hundred. They have lost six straight games in
7:50
Speaker 4: the games that they needed a win to get back
7:53
Speaker 4: to the five hundred mark. Last night started well, but
8:00
Speaker 4: they couldn't get clutch hits. They lost to the Royals
8:05
Speaker 4: five to three. Nata Valdi got lit up in the
8:11
Speaker 4: sixth inning. Beaks came on, got lit up. It looked
8:17
Speaker 4: like batting practice in the sixth inning. The Royals win
8:22
Speaker 4: the game. Josh Young had two more hits. He's tied
8:26
Speaker 4: for third in multi hit games, is twenty two multi
8:29
Speaker 4: hit games. He's third in a batting average, hitting three
8:34
Speaker 4: sixteen hits safely in tent of his last eleven. And
8:42
Speaker 4: he has been really good. Ezekiel Duran has been really good.
8:48
Speaker 4: Evan Carter not so good, Corey Seeger not so good.
9:00
Speaker 4: And the Rangers are three games back of the Mariners,
9:05
Speaker 4: who are showing signs of being the team that we
9:11
Speaker 4: saw last year. The Rangers still won seven of ten,
9:18
Speaker 4: but they're I mean, they are a five. They are
9:22
Speaker 4: the very definition of a five hundred team. Right now.
9:26
Speaker 4: The Astros haven't acquired infielder right now, Delgado from the
9:32
Speaker 4: Rays in exchange for cash. Delgado is going to Triple
9:36
Speaker 4: A Sugar lad He spent this season in Triple A Durham.
9:41
Speaker 4: He said to fifty fourteen doubles, three homers, thirty three
9:45
Speaker 4: rabbis in sixty one games. He's also played third base,
9:48
Speaker 4: he's played shortstop, he's played second base. So a little
9:53
Speaker 4: bit of depth infield depth for the Astros. Let's see
10:02
Speaker 4: what else ah Major League baseball is being played in
10:07
Speaker 4: Las Vegas this week. It's a precursor to what's coming
10:10
Speaker 4: up in a year and a half. They're building a
10:12
Speaker 4: new stadium on the strip in Las Vegas. It won't
10:14
Speaker 4: be done till the twenty twenty eight season, but they're
10:17
Speaker 4: playing six games in Vegas this week at the Triple
10:24
Speaker 4: A affiliate ballpark, and it is a launching pad. Two
10:29
Speaker 4: nights ago, the Brewers won fifteen to fourteen in a
10:35
Speaker 4: twelve inning game in which seventeen home runs were hit. No,
10:41
Speaker 4: I beg your pardon. Eleven home runs were hit. More
10:46
Speaker 4: home runs last night. Apparently. I don't know what this
10:51
Speaker 4: is going to look like when the big league park
10:53
Speaker 4: is built. But you know, the air is thin in
10:55
Speaker 4: Vegas and it is hot. The ball is going to fly,
11:00
Speaker 4: and it has been flying there, I mean incredibly. All Right,
11:07

16:10
Speaker 14: It's it's a wild ride, isn't it. I Mean, there's
16:13
Speaker 14: a lot of emotion lots ups and downs, and tonight
16:16
Speaker 14: I thought, uh, I was proud of the group how
16:20
Speaker 14: we stepped in that third period. I mean we we
16:23
Speaker 14: didn't obviously have a great second and you know, the
16:26
Speaker 14: game is back and forth again, and but we were
16:28
Speaker 14: stuck with what we kind of want we want to
16:31
Speaker 14: do in the third and you know, stay patient, find
16:34
Speaker 14: fine way to get one. And I thought we did
16:35
Speaker 14: a great job of just grinding the pucket and keeping
16:40
Speaker 14: out of our net. Especially this guy obviously was a
16:42
Speaker 14: massive part of that, but you know it was it
16:46
Speaker 14: was a fun game.
16:47
Speaker 4: Left side front rope Pierre.
16:48
Speaker 14: Yeah, question for Brandon, can you maybe take a home
16:53
Speaker 14: take stock of this night?
16:54
Speaker 4: You know, winning a game in its sounding like a final.
16:56
Speaker 3: You're undrafted, if have to fight your way here to
16:59
Speaker 3: be in the NHL.
17:00
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think you know it's We're gonna enjoy this
17:03
Speaker 16: one tonight, but come tomorrow morning, we're focused on game five. Personally,
17:08
Speaker 16: I feel like I will be able to appreciate this
17:10
Speaker 16: more after the series season's over.
17:13
Speaker 4: So right side back rolled Ryan.
17:20
Speaker 5: Jordan.
17:20
Speaker 17: John Tortorella just said that you're killing them in front
17:23
Speaker 17: of the net. What do you think when you hear
17:25
Speaker 17: he said that, and what's your what's your sort of
17:29
Speaker 17: strategy in that space in front of the net.
17:31
Speaker 14: Yeah, I've been telling them guys to get to the
17:33
Speaker 14: hoop for I don't know how long years. So good
17:37
Speaker 14: things happen around there, and you know, especially when they play,
17:41
Speaker 14: you know, there's an opportunity to get there and and
17:44
Speaker 14: you just need to bounce. And I mean that power
17:47
Speaker 14: play goal and then went off with four different guys
17:48
Speaker 14: and just kind of sat there for me. So you
17:51
Speaker 14: get to you got to be there, you know, And
17:52
Speaker 14: I think we can still do a better job of
17:54
Speaker 14: that and get in front of his eyes and get
17:57
Speaker 14: in the net and finding ways to just get bounces
17:59
Speaker 14: and chaos. And that's that's been our m for a
18:02
Speaker 14: long time. And you know it's working for me and
18:05
Speaker 14: uh and the guys, Uh gotta keep doing that.
18:08
Speaker 18: Left side front row Adam Jordan's a thirst right game
18:11
Speaker 18: where you guys have a period with three goals, you're
18:13
Speaker 18: scoring them kind of in bunches and quickly. Is there
18:15
Speaker 18: anything to that you guys kept capitalizing on one goal
18:17
Speaker 18: kind of building momentum or is it just kind of
18:18
Speaker 18: something that's happening.
18:19
Speaker 14: Yeah, I think it's something that's happening. I mean, you
18:22
Speaker 14: take them when you can and and you run, you run,
18:26
Speaker 14: you know, the momentum as long as you can, I think,
18:28
Speaker 14: and you know, a good teams are gonna push back.
18:32
Speaker 10: And they did.
18:33
Speaker 14: And you know, I thought, like I said that, the
18:37
Speaker 14: steady throughout the whole game. I thought we were. We
18:40
Speaker 14: were pretty steady and in regards to how we want
18:42
Speaker 14: to do things, and probably.
18:44
Speaker 4: Were Caine's captain Jordan Stall after the game last night.
18:48
Speaker 4: Right now, we're going to jump out to the Polaris
18:52
Speaker 4: Fund Center zoom line. We're going to be visiting with
18:56
Speaker 4: Elizabeth Pryor, daughter of Richard Pryor and author of a
19:00
Speaker 4: new book called Something We Said Richard Pryor a notorious
19:05
Speaker 4: word and me, Elizabeth, how are you doing good?
19:10
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you for having me.
19:12
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, thank you very much. This is a very
19:15
Speaker 4: interesting book. I would like for you to start with
19:19
Speaker 4: our readers on the day you were teaching class and
19:25
Speaker 4: the girl quoted from Blazing Saddles, a movie that you
19:29
Speaker 4: had not seen at the time.
19:32
Speaker 1: Not only hadn't seen, but a movie that my dad
19:35
Speaker 1: co wrote.
19:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I didn't know that.
19:37
Speaker 4: I can't believe I didn't know that until I read this.
19:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh good, I love that. So it was my
19:46
Speaker 1: second semester teaching. I was teaching about the Fugitive Slave
19:49
Speaker 1: Act and the student was trying to a student I loved,
19:53
Speaker 1: and she was trying to connect with my lecture. She
19:57
Speaker 1: asked me if I'd seen Blazing Saddles. It was like, yes,
20:00
Speaker 1: I have, very snippily, I hadn't, but I thought she
20:04
Speaker 1: was trying to out me as Richard Pryor's daughter, which
20:06
Speaker 1: was something I just did not talk about in my
20:09
Speaker 1: professional life. And so if i'd paid better attention and
20:14
Speaker 1: admitted I hadn't seen the movie, perhaps I would have
20:17
Speaker 1: caught what was about to happen. I would have seen
20:19
Speaker 1: it coming. But she ended up quoting a line from
20:23
Speaker 1: the film that used two slurs, one of her Chinese
20:27
Speaker 1: people of Chinese descent and the N word, and she
20:29
Speaker 1: said the actual words, she didn't use the phrase the
20:33
Speaker 1: N word. And I became undone in that moment, and
20:36
Speaker 1: it really kind of set in motion this journey where
20:41
Speaker 1: I started to research the personal impact of what happened
20:45
Speaker 1: to me in that moment because it was like so
20:46
Speaker 1: embarrassing to me, And then started thinking about as a teacher,
20:50
Speaker 1: how I wanted to navigate it, and also asked myself
20:53
Speaker 1: the question did I even know what the word meant?
20:56
Speaker 1: And so started digging deeply into the history, and as
21:00
Speaker 1: I read more and more about the N word, I
21:03
Speaker 1: could not ignore that my father, Richard Pryor, was basically
21:08
Speaker 1: mentioned in everything that I read, and so the book
21:12
Speaker 1: also became about my journey rediscovering him in his word.
21:16
Speaker 4: And in fact, many many fellow black comedians today have
21:23
Speaker 4: followed his lead with that, have they not in terms
21:27
Speaker 4: of in terms of how they talk and using that
21:31
Speaker 4: word in their act?
21:33
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I think what my father did when
21:36
Speaker 1: he made the decision to no longer try to emulate
21:40
Speaker 1: other comedians but speak in his own voice, was he
21:43
Speaker 1: decided he was going to be authentic to the voice
21:45
Speaker 1: that he knew when he grew up in that he
21:47
Speaker 1: grew up in that included as subversive. This is different
21:51
Speaker 1: than the white racis version of the N word. He
21:54
Speaker 1: decided he was going to use this subversive, satirical word
21:58
Speaker 1: that black people in his community used, and he was
22:01
Speaker 1: going to use it on stage. And if other black
22:03
Speaker 1: comedians are doing that too, I imagine they're doing the
22:05
Speaker 1: same kind of thing. I don't think they're mocking or
22:08
Speaker 1: imitating my father, but really, as many comedians got from
22:14
Speaker 1: my father, the kind of thumbs up to be yourself
22:17
Speaker 1: and tell your own story, that your own story can
22:19
Speaker 1: be universal on stage.
22:21
Speaker 4: Mel Brooks didn't want that word in his movie, did
22:24
Speaker 4: he No.
22:26
Speaker 1: He thought he was like, wait, I don't want to
22:30
Speaker 1: do that. Yeah, And my father was like, no, you
22:33
Speaker 1: don't get it. This is going to show how ridiculous
22:38
Speaker 1: white racism, how absurd white racism is. We're going to
22:41
Speaker 1: use it to kind of nab the whities in the movie.
22:45
Speaker 1: This is not going to be a way to demean
22:47
Speaker 1: black people.
22:49
Speaker 4: You met your father, you right when you were six?
22:51
Speaker 4: Am I right about that?
22:54
Speaker 1: That's right? That's right?
22:55
Speaker 4: And then you found out at a later time that
22:58
Speaker 4: you had other siblings? True?
23:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yes. Nobody wanted to tell me anything. I
23:05
Speaker 1: had to find it all out by like trial and error.
23:09
Speaker 4: How would you describe that emotion when you found out
23:13
Speaker 4: you had brothers and sisters?
23:16
Speaker 1: I mean I wanted I wanted to have brothers and
23:19
Speaker 1: sisters more than anything else. And my mother never told me.
23:23
Speaker 1: And I think it's part of the kind of secretiveness.
23:28
Speaker 1: Oh that that shrouded my father more broadly, honestly, like
23:34
Speaker 1: that people talked about a lot of things and also
23:37
Speaker 1: didn't talk about anything.
23:38
Speaker 4: Sure, but I was confused.
23:42
Speaker 1: And excited and hopeful. And you know, as soon as
23:46
Speaker 1: I met my sister Rain, who's the first sibling I
23:50
Speaker 1: really met. She's two years younger than I am, I
23:52
Speaker 1: was like in love. I was like, yeah, I get it,
23:56
Speaker 1: this is my sister.
23:58
Speaker 4: You grew up really two different worlds early in your life,
24:02
Speaker 4: did you not. I mean, you'd go and visit your
24:04
Speaker 4: father and then and then your mom was living in
24:07
Speaker 4: a whole different world was isn't.
24:08
Speaker 1: She one hundred percent? I mean, my mother was a
24:14
Speaker 1: very like she's Jewish culturally Jewish, like to shop at
24:20
Speaker 1: Momans and Marshals and you know, get the sales and
24:24
Speaker 1: loved Jewish food and you know, and was very you know,
24:29
Speaker 1: never did drugs, you know. And and then my father's world.
24:35
Speaker 1: And I'm not sure if it's because he was a
24:37
Speaker 1: celebrity or if he's because he who he was. I
24:39
Speaker 1: think it's because of who he was and where he
24:41
Speaker 1: came from. I mean, there were so many people in
24:44
Speaker 1: the house, you know, people were running in and out
24:47
Speaker 1: like you know, people, you know, loud, and he had
24:51
Speaker 1: a two and a half acre estate and with a
24:55
Speaker 1: swimming pool and guesthouses in a boxing ring, and everybody
24:59
Speaker 1: sat around the pine table, you know, you know, trying
25:02
Speaker 1: to impress my father and drinking and talking smack.
25:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you were. You were fairly early when
25:11
Speaker 4: you figured out your dad drank a little bit correct.
25:16
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, he taught me how to make him a
25:18
Speaker 1: tequila sunrise. Yeah, when I was like nine or six
25:22
Speaker 1: or something, very young.
25:23
Speaker 9: Yeah.
25:23
Speaker 4: Yeah, but there was a point at which it really
25:29
Speaker 4: wasn't funny anymore, was it.
25:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that's right. I mean there was more than
25:34
Speaker 1: one time where I woke up in the morning and
25:38
Speaker 1: my father had torn up the house. I particularly remember,
25:42
Speaker 1: like the the kitchen, went walking into the kitchen and
25:45
Speaker 1: literally every pot pan, you know, dish, whatever everything was
25:51
Speaker 1: in this was on the floor.
25:52
Speaker 6: Of the kitchen.
25:54
Speaker 4: I'm not excusing the behavior, but he had a very
25:58
Speaker 4: difficult upbringing himself, did he not?
26:01
Speaker 1: He did. My father grew up in his grandmother raised him,
26:07
Speaker 1: and she was a madam in a brothel. His father
26:10
Speaker 1: was a pimp, his mother was a sex worker, in
26:13
Speaker 1: the brothel, and they were He was separated from her
26:17
Speaker 1: when he was ten and his father, I mean, I
26:21
Speaker 1: think a lot of people probably grew up around sex work,
26:23
Speaker 1: and it's not necessarily the same experience that my father had.
26:26
Speaker 1: But his father was incredibly violent and angry and terrifying
26:32
Speaker 1: to my father, and so he grew up really afraid
26:36
Speaker 1: and got attention by making the people around him laugh.
26:40
Speaker 1: I mean the first story he told me about that
26:43
Speaker 1: was slipping in dog poop, and you know, everybody cracked
26:48
Speaker 1: up so hard that he kept doing it over and
26:51
Speaker 1: over and over again, which is said, you know, says
26:53
Speaker 1: all you need to know.
26:54
Speaker 4: He was raised by his grandmother pretty much, was he not.
26:58
Speaker 1: He was, and he loved her and feared her.
27:01
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah uh. And you had a kind
27:06
Speaker 4: of a different relationship with her too that you write
27:09
Speaker 4: about speak fear.
27:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I she was a scary lady. I'm just
27:18
Speaker 1: going to tell you that right now. Like there's a
27:20
Speaker 1: reason why she was a boss lady who ran a business,
27:23
Speaker 1: you know, profitable business. So but yeah, she also called
27:29
Speaker 1: me the N word when I was little and and
27:32
Speaker 1: I was expecting my father, who told me, don't let
27:36
Speaker 1: nobody ever call you that to protect me and you know,
27:39
Speaker 1: stick up for me. But he was so scared of Mama, yeah,
27:43
Speaker 1: that he let her get away with doing it and
27:47
Speaker 1: did whatever she told him to do, which is to
27:49
Speaker 1: thank me, and he did.
27:53
Speaker 15: It.
27:53
Speaker 4: Is just a remarkable book. It's called something We said,

31:30
Speaker 4: All right, welcome back on a Wednesday edition. We're joined
31:37
Speaker 4: in studio by Scott clintenon Uh, there's a lot going on, uh,
31:42
Speaker 4: and we will try to get to as much as
31:46
Speaker 4: we can. But let's uh, let's start with college baseball
31:53
Speaker 4: Omaha Scott Okay, and look at what's going on there,
31:58
Speaker 4: what will go on there? I think last week you
32:04
Speaker 4: thought Georgia was the best team left. They're certainly pounding
32:08
Speaker 4: the baseball. Any chance that Mississippi State was the second
32:11
Speaker 4: best team.
32:14
Speaker 10: I don't think they were the second best team. Okay,
32:16
Speaker 10: they played good baseball last weekend.
32:18
Speaker 4: Well they hit it a ton.
32:19
Speaker 2: Yeah.
32:19
Speaker 10: Well, and you're also I don't think Omaha will play like.
32:28
Speaker 2: Like that.
32:29
Speaker 10: It doesn't Georgia. Yeah, I mean it's got legitimate. The
32:32
Speaker 10: size is legitimate as opposed to really small, really small.
32:36
Speaker 4: Okay, don't believes not as small as the Las Vegas
32:43
Speaker 4: ballpark where eleven home runs were hit Monday night.
32:47
Speaker 10: Yeah, they're playing all week there.
32:49
Speaker 2: I didn't know that. Do they do they have to build?
32:52
Speaker 4: To see last night?
32:53
Speaker 2: What do they have to build a new ballpark?
32:55
Speaker 4: They're in the process, But why exactly? I mean everyone's
33:00
Speaker 4: talking about it. Yes, eleven eleven dingers. What happened last night?
33:05
Speaker 4: I forgot to look. I did as well, Okay, Okay,
33:08
Speaker 4: all right, going, but yeah, so yeah, that was fun.
33:12
Speaker 4: And they are building a new ballpark and apparently the
33:15
Speaker 4: dimensions in Las Vegas, and I know the air is
33:18
Speaker 4: thinner and it's hotter, right, it's one hundred degrees. Has
33:20
Speaker 4: been really hot there, so you know the ball is
33:23
Speaker 4: going to carry. It's in Sacramento at night time, even
33:26
Speaker 4: though that park they're playing in is relatively small, the
33:29
Speaker 4: minor league park. And then they say the numbers are inflated.
33:33
Speaker 4: But at nighttime, I know it cools down and it's
33:37
Speaker 4: not as easy to get a ball out of the
33:39
Speaker 4: ballpark as apparently it is in Las Vegas with thin
33:43
Speaker 4: air and hot weather.
33:45
Speaker 10: Okay, Well, the A's one, seven to five, all right,
33:48
Speaker 10: the Brewers.
33:49
Speaker 2: Game one home run. Okay, the A's hit one, two, three,
33:56
Speaker 2: four five.
33:57
Speaker 4: Five home runs in seven runs. Okay, there you go. Well,
34:02
Speaker 4: the A's are comfortable at home. They've always been comfortable.
34:05
Speaker 2: They've always they've been a great.
34:07
Speaker 4: Home They've always been a good home team, a great
34:10
Speaker 4: home team in Las Vegas. Apparently. Sure, so they may
34:14
Speaker 4: go eighty one and o next year. I don't think
34:15
Speaker 4: next year there's gonna be ready. Actually, I think they
34:17
Speaker 4: have won more year in Saxon.
34:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think i'd played more games in Las Vegas.
34:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, no kidding.
34:23
Speaker 2: Why are they they're undefeated?
34:24
Speaker 10: I mean, why are they not going there to play
34:26
Speaker 10: these games?
34:27
Speaker 4: And I don't know the size of the park. Does
34:29
Speaker 4: do you have the attendance on the box score there?
34:31
Speaker 4: Because it my guess is it's more than they're they're
34:35
Speaker 4: getting in Sacramento. I have seen those that when the
34:38
Speaker 4: Rangers play there, it it looks pretty bleak.
34:41
Speaker 2: I don't see.
34:42
Speaker 4: Okay, that's fine. Uh, let's go back to the College
34:45
Speaker 4: World Series Friday, Troy and West Virginia. I don't think
34:52
Speaker 4: we necessarily saw that one coming all the West Virginia
34:54
Speaker 4: was seated.
34:55
Speaker 10: Right, but they were supposed to go to u C.
34:59
Speaker 1: L A.
34:59
Speaker 2: Yep, they and hadn't did not make it.
35:03
Speaker 4: Didn't make it. And Ole Miss and North Carolina. I
35:11
Speaker 4: watched that. I watched that North Carolina USC well. I
35:16
Speaker 4: watched quite a bit of the series, and I certainly
35:18
Speaker 4: watched the last three innings. I think the dramatic innings
35:21
Speaker 4: of the of Game three. And North Carolina is is
35:27
Speaker 4: seeded fifth and or is the second highest seed left
35:32
Speaker 4: behind Georgia. Are they Are they the second best team
35:35
Speaker 4: coming in?
35:36
Speaker 10: I don't know if they're the second best team, but
35:38
Speaker 10: I think they are going to be in the final.
35:42
Speaker 2: Okay, you think they're the best team. I think they're
35:44
Speaker 2: the best half half of the bracket.
35:46
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, it's an all secuh postseason in in the
35:51
Speaker 4: other half of the bracket.
35:53
Speaker 2: Exactly what the n C DOUA A didn't want to
35:55
Speaker 2: have happened.
35:56
Speaker 4: No, of course they wanted that to happen.
35:59
Speaker 10: No, they're they're frightened that Ole Miss beats North Carolina. Yeah, yeah,
36:06
Speaker 10: I guess they want SEC teams eliminating each other before
36:10
Speaker 10: they get to the.
36:10
Speaker 4: Well finally they they yeah, but they they screwed up
36:14
Speaker 4: here because there is going to be a SEC team
36:17
Speaker 4: in the final, at least one.
36:18
Speaker 10: Well, they didn't expect Oklahoma to do this.
36:20
Speaker 4: True, true, and and and I said this, and maybe
36:26
Speaker 4: I'm wrong, but when when Oklahoma and and M played
36:29
Speaker 4: early in the year. Is that thought that was the
36:31
Speaker 4: first SEC series? Right? And and and owe you everybody's
36:35
Speaker 4: just raving about their pitching. They had not given and
36:38
Speaker 4: it may have to do with their early schedule. You know,
36:40
Speaker 4: it's early in the season. I get it. Okay, obviously,
36:44
Speaker 4: but man, they hit the cover off the ball in
36:47
Speaker 4: the regionals.
36:48
Speaker 10: Which they didn't do during the regular season. Right, And
36:51
Speaker 10: this is where you go to when you get to
36:54
Speaker 10: regional play, you're not going to see pitching any better
36:58
Speaker 10: than what.
36:58
Speaker 2: You saw in your confide.
37:00
Speaker 10: Yes, and Oklahoma had been dominated their bats had been dominated.
37:04
Speaker 4: By SEC pitch.
37:06
Speaker 10: Yeah, and so they don't see SEC pitching. They get
37:10
Speaker 10: themselves on a bit of a roll and they pound
37:12
Speaker 10: their way to make it to Omaha. It's not the
37:18
Speaker 10: first time that that had happened.
37:20
Speaker 4: Yeah. And so you like Georgia and North Carolina in
37:26
Speaker 4: the finals, yes, okay.
37:28
Speaker 10: Now Texas has a pitcher they can shut down Georgia
37:31
Speaker 10: in game one?
37:33
Speaker 4: Correct? Correct?
37:34
Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't know if Texas has gegi that can
37:40
Speaker 10: shut down Georgia.
37:41
Speaker 4: Georgia won two out of three against Texas this year.
37:44
Speaker 4: I think I believe was that in Austin. I think
37:46
Speaker 4: it was Austin it okay, and they took two out
37:49
Speaker 4: of three.
37:49
Speaker 2: And they took two out of three. They score a
37:51
Speaker 2: lot of runs, medium, Okay, they put up runs.
37:56
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, they've put up a lot of runs a
38:00
Speaker 4: lot of different times, right, Yeah.
38:02
Speaker 2: They hit ball good. Yeah, they do pats for bats.
38:07
Speaker 4: Jackson is the catcher. Is he going to be the
38:09
Speaker 4: Golden Spikes guy? Yes he is, yeah, yeah, what year
38:16
Speaker 4: is he? He is a junior so he can come out.
38:19
Speaker 10: Yeah, he's coming out a third round, second to third
38:22
Speaker 10: round pick, which.
38:22
Speaker 4: I still don't you don't understand.
38:24
Speaker 10: It's not Grohovak not going in the first round.
38:27
Speaker 4: Right.
38:27
Speaker 2: What has Jackson got.
38:28
Speaker 4: To do to be yes? Especially catching, right exactly? I
38:32
Speaker 4: mean everybody needs catching, right, Yes, I mean put him
38:36
Speaker 4: in the Rangers lineup tonight.
38:38
Speaker 10: The latest mock draft that came out today had the
38:41
Speaker 10: White Sox not tating, taking Chowalski from UCLA and going
38:45
Speaker 10: catcher from Georgia Tech. So it's still a premium.
38:49
Speaker 4: Position, that's yeah, but that's weird.
38:51
Speaker 10: And Grohovac, who showed he can has positional flexibility.
38:55
Speaker 4: Yeah you know, yeah, Okay, hey, somebody's somebody's gonna to steal.
39:00
Speaker 4: Oh yeah. They are speaking of A and M and
39:05
Speaker 4: major league while we think, well, I'm thinking about it.
39:08
Speaker 4: Pretty good debut by Brady Montgomery last night in Chicago.
39:13
Speaker 10: Just put smile on your face. I mean two years
39:16
Speaker 10: in a day, I know you've.
39:17
Speaker 4: Seen the video, but having how many family members and
39:21
Speaker 4: friends he had there, that was really cool. That was
39:24
Speaker 4: a very cool video to see them celebrating what he did.
39:28
Speaker 4: And for those of you who don't know, you should
39:30
Speaker 4: know by now. But Montgomery got his first major league
39:32
Speaker 4: hit in his first major league game and then in
39:35
Speaker 4: the ninth inning he walked it off with a home run,
39:38
Speaker 4: only the fifth major league player since they started keeping
39:42
Speaker 4: records in nineteen hundred in their debut to hit a
39:45
Speaker 4: walk off home run. And he walked it off last
39:48
Speaker 4: night in Chicago, and that had a lot of people
39:52
Speaker 4: at that game.
39:52
Speaker 10: Yeah, they did thirty five and thirty one. Now, Chip,
39:56
Speaker 10: what would you like your team.
39:57
Speaker 2: To be thirty five and thirty one.
39:59
Speaker 10: I'd like my team to be thirty five thirty one. Yeah,
40:02
Speaker 10: but two years in a day since he broke his leg.
40:06
Speaker 4: Two years okay, wow, So that's hard to believe.
40:09
Speaker 10: All four players in the trade now for Garrett Crochet
40:14
Speaker 10: have made the majors that the Red Sox gave up.
40:17
Speaker 4: Okay, well, pretty good trade. Then, it is a.
40:21
Speaker 2: Pretty good trade.
40:23
Speaker 10: You normally don't see four for four, right, and Crochet
40:27
Speaker 10: has been really good. But the Red Sox have not
40:29
Speaker 10: done anything.
40:30
Speaker 4: They haven't. No, they haven't. So so what right now?
40:35
Speaker 4: Where the Red Sox are one player for four major
40:37
Speaker 4: league players? Not so good right because they need players.
40:41
Speaker 2: Yes, they do need players.
40:42
Speaker 4: Okay, we're going to take a break. We've got a
40:45
Speaker 4: lot to get to between for the next forty five
40:48
Speaker 4: minutes or so. Mallory is here tomorrow, Jared is in,
40:53
Speaker 4: and I think Jason is in if he's not, Washington,
40:56
Speaker 4: DC hobnobbing, and then Ryan is in Friday. We're back
41:00
Speaker 4: on Monday with the writers round table and all the
41:03
Speaker 4: weekend events. And maybe there'll be uh more gambling allegations
41:09
Speaker 4: or more court stuff by Monday. I doubt it, but
41:13
Speaker 4: maybe all right. Astro's report is brought to you by

Speaker 22: rubber match will determine the series. Details coming up next.
42:04
Speaker 23: Texas isn't just a place, it's a feeling a kind
42:08
Speaker 23: way from a neighbor, sharing a plate of barbecue or
42:12
Speaker 23: celebrating a big win on the football field. That's the
42:16
Speaker 23: way we treat each other on and off the road.

Speaker 22: The Houston Astros fell behind early and often last night
42:35
Speaker 22: against the Los Angeles Angels, as the series comes down
42:38
Speaker 22: to the rubber match. Tonight final score was ten to one.
42:41
Speaker 22: Kaiawaitang got the start for Houston and had to take
42:44
Speaker 22: this outing on the chin as he allowed five runs
42:47
Speaker 22: on seven hits with three walks through four innings. The
42:50
Speaker 22: Halos used unconventional methods to score twice in the bottom first,
42:54
Speaker 22: and then power came in the second. It's back to
42:56
Speaker 22: back two RBI doubles put the Angels up six to nothing,
42:59
Speaker 22: eventually seven to nothing by the innings end. While Bryce
43:02
Speaker 22: Matthews was able to end the shutout for the Astros
43:05
Speaker 22: in the seventh, nothing else seemed to go right for Houston.
43:07
Speaker 22: On the bright side, the Astros can still take the
43:10
Speaker 22: series with Game three tonight. Peter Lambert takes the mound
43:12

45:31
Speaker 4: It is all Willie Wednesday. We thank you for being
45:33
Speaker 4: with us. Scott. Clinton is with us as he is
45:36
Speaker 4: on most Wednesdays. Scott, there's so much moral outrage the
45:44
Speaker 4: last twenty four hours, and and you know, moral outrage
45:51
Speaker 4: is a funny thing because for me, if you're going
45:55
Speaker 4: to be outraged about something, you your house probably has
46:01
Speaker 4: to be in order as well. At least that's always
46:05
Speaker 4: been my opinion, because you get heard more if you
46:09
Speaker 4: are in a situation where you're kind of above reproach
46:14
Speaker 4: and people know that your character and they you know,
46:17
Speaker 4: they know when you speak out against something that it
46:20
Speaker 4: must be really bad, and boy, that needs to change
46:24
Speaker 4: if we're speaking out against it. My big issue with
46:27
Speaker 4: this is not that the judge is something stupid. He
46:31
Speaker 4: did and allow this kid to play. I get it.
46:36
Speaker 4: He will win his appeal unless the four Texas Tech
46:41
Speaker 4: judges have so much scrutiny that a couple of them
46:45
Speaker 4: vote against him. I don't think that'll happen, but we'll see,
46:48
Speaker 4: you know, in the situation with appeals. But in my mind,
46:54
Speaker 4: the system is so broken, it's so wrong. And the
46:57
Speaker 4: teams that aren't going to play Texas Tech, I know
47:00
Speaker 4: they've never called a player who has already committed or
47:04
Speaker 4: even on campus for another team. I know they've never
47:08
Speaker 4: sat on somebody's bench next to a game that's going
47:12
Speaker 4: on and whispered in the ear of a player, Hey,
47:14
Speaker 4: we need you at our school. I'm sure all of
47:17
Speaker 4: these teams that are morally outraged that aren't going to
47:20
Speaker 4: play Texas Tech in any sports for that from now
47:24
Speaker 4: until the future, there's no more college sports. I know
47:28
Speaker 4: they've done all things right aside from what I've said,
47:34
Speaker 4: why should we be a surprised be morally outraged at
47:41
Speaker 4: this decision that's been rendered on behalf of the quarterback
47:45
Speaker 4: in lubbook.
47:46
Speaker 10: It drove me to literature. Chip Okay, God saved the
47:51
Speaker 10: ancient mariner from the fiends that plagued thee. Thus why
47:55
Speaker 10: look as thou so with my crossbow, I shot the
47:58
Speaker 10: albatross and then it goes on. Later, water water everywhere,
48:03
Speaker 10: all the boards to drink water, water everywhere, and Norah
48:06
Speaker 10: dropped to drink ah. Well's a day that evil looks
48:10
Speaker 10: had I from young and old. Instead of across the
48:14
Speaker 10: albatross was hung around my neck, was hung People don't
48:18
Speaker 10: understand that the albatross was good and not bad. And
48:23
Speaker 10: after you killed it, then you had to live with
48:26
Speaker 10: the albatross around your neck. College sports has been terrific.
48:30
Speaker 10: I'm not saying it didn't have problems, okay, but what
48:34
Speaker 10: you have done, what Tennessee judges did, what California judges
48:42
Speaker 10: are seeing now with another lawsuit about the the this
48:47
Speaker 10: this name image likeness.
48:50
Speaker 2: What's happened in Lubbock.
48:53
Speaker 10: For everything that was bad about the NC double A,
48:56
Speaker 10: there was a general following of the rules. Generally speaking,
49:02
Speaker 10: they had some ability to enforce.
49:04
Speaker 4: Some little like the Ten Commandments right in that there
49:08
Speaker 4: is structure. That doesn't mean it's always followed, but the
49:13
Speaker 4: structure exists. It's like out here, okay, I'm watching cars
49:18
Speaker 4: go by right at seventy miles an hour in one
49:22
Speaker 4: lane and a half construction where it's sixty, and they're
49:25
Speaker 4: pushing the envelope and always the envelope is going to
49:29
Speaker 4: be pushed and a lot of times it's going to
49:31
Speaker 4: be broken because that's the nature. And if somebody cheats
49:34
Speaker 4: really well, somebody's got to figure out it way to
49:36
Speaker 4: cheat even better.
49:38
Speaker 2: But what about the people are driving sixty?
49:39
Speaker 4: Some people are by driving sixty into biding and like
49:42
Speaker 4: me on the way up here, this afternoon, get run over.
49:46
Speaker 10: Exactly, So move over. Some people do try to follow that.
49:51
Speaker 10: There's a few okay, and certain when there's no rules
49:55
Speaker 10: to follow like structure and no structure. Yes, it's all legal, okay,
50:01
Speaker 10: this is the autobond. And not to not too quol
50:04
Speaker 10: this is the German autobond. You drive whatever speed you
50:07
Speaker 10: want to.
50:07
Speaker 4: Go, not yes, and and not to quote date Oats
50:11
Speaker 4: as a paragot of virtue.
50:13
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I'm not.
50:16
Speaker 4: He just said these are the rules. And he was
50:18
Speaker 4: right at the time. Right, he was right at the time.
50:22
Speaker 2: I'm not saying his interpretation was that that's the rule.
50:27
Speaker 10: That's fine, okay, yes, because we didn't know because we
50:30
Speaker 10: know what the rule was and still.
50:31
Speaker 4: Anymore, and we don't know what the rules are. And gambling,
50:35
Speaker 4: which is apparently the worst thing you can do, okay.
50:40
Speaker 2: And speaks it. It goes to the heart of fair
50:44
Speaker 2: and honest competition. I get it.
50:47
Speaker 4: I mean, trust me, I get it.
50:49
Speaker 10: These kids that these kids that have just been kicked
50:52
Speaker 10: out of college basketball because they shave points need to
50:56
Speaker 10: get a lawyer.
50:57
Speaker 4: No, no question. And but but the the thing that
51:00
Speaker 4: I said yesterday Scott is going back to the teams
51:05
Speaker 4: that are morally outraged and aren't going to play Texas
51:08
Speaker 4: Tech anymore. Now, I'm not saying that's right or wrong.
51:09
Speaker 4: That's fine, that's their choice. I'd love to see a
51:12
Speaker 4: president and not an athletic director speak up to this.
51:16
Speaker 4: I would love that that would be I think would
51:19
Speaker 4: carry a little more weight. Probably not anymore, but maybe
51:21
Speaker 4: a little. It's like, you better check your athletes in
51:28
Speaker 4: your school and see how many of them are betting,
51:33
Speaker 4: not five thousand times, not on events across the world.
51:37
Speaker 4: This kid has a serious addiction. Okay, it is a
51:41
Speaker 4: diseased addiction that thirty days ain't going to cure. Okay,
51:45
Speaker 4: but how many what percentage of college athletes do you
51:51
Speaker 4: think have gotten on their phone line after seeing commercial
51:56
Speaker 4: after commercial after commercial on the sports that they're why
52:00
Speaker 4: on ESPN and going hey in two clicks, I can
52:04
Speaker 4: put five dollars on the next tonight or whatever.
52:06
Speaker 10: Right, But I will say chip that the compliance departments
52:12
Speaker 10: at NCAA schools send you email after email saying you
52:20
Speaker 10: cannot bet.
52:21
Speaker 4: I get that, but that's like it's just all an
52:24
Speaker 4: hour speedle of it.
52:25
Speaker 10: But if you're driving seventy five and you get pulled
52:29
Speaker 10: over and skoyt Clinden and gives the name Chip Howard
52:33
Speaker 10: to the police officer, which is what Brennan Soresby did
52:38
Speaker 10: at Indiana, at Cincinnati and at Texas Tech because he
52:42
Speaker 10: knew he was caught and he knew he broke the
52:46
Speaker 10: rules and broke the law, and is like, well, I'm
52:50
Speaker 10: betting through somebody else. I'm placing this under somebody else's names.
52:54
Speaker 10: There's other things here that are not just his addiction.
52:57
Speaker 2: Okay, Oh, I'm not saying.
53:00
Speaker 4: He should ever played college football again. I don't know
53:02
Speaker 4: what you miss.
53:03
Speaker 10: What I'm saying is, but as I spoke to the
53:06
Speaker 10: rhyme of the ancient Mariner, Yes, okay, the chairman of
53:10
Speaker 10: the Border Regions of Texas Tech and their biggest booster
53:14
Speaker 10: is the Mariner.
53:16
Speaker 4: No doubt, and the other people because he runs the
53:21
Speaker 4: program and because he signs the checks, his name are
53:24
Speaker 4: on the checks. Right, the president of the university ain't
53:26
Speaker 4: gonna come out and say, that's Noad. We made a mistake.
53:29
Speaker 4: You know, we're suspending him. We were wrong. He can't
53:32
Speaker 4: do that because then the money drives up. Right, there's
53:36
Speaker 4: no more checks millions, there's no more money. Yes, so
53:40
Speaker 4: that's one case. Okay, I'm not saying there aren't others.
53:43
Speaker 4: There are others. And I've said this before. Cody Campbell
53:49
Speaker 4: felt bulletproof enough or for whatever reason he doesn't. He
53:53
Speaker 4: is the face of the university and he doesn't mind
53:55
Speaker 4: being shot at.
53:56
Speaker 10: Right, But he also said he was the face of
53:58
Speaker 10: fairness in college.
54:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I saw all of that, and that's garbage, right,
54:03
Speaker 4: that's that's.
54:03
Speaker 2: That was all about Texas Tech.
54:05
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course it is. But but my point is
54:08
Speaker 4: there there are other Texas Tech like people running their universities, right,
54:14
Speaker 4: And that's a big reason why we haven't heard from
54:16
Speaker 4: the presidents for the same reason because they know, Hey,
54:19
Speaker 4: if we come out and and go against like Joe Bob,
54:23
Speaker 4: who's just given US seven million dollars to buy a
54:26
Speaker 4: new quarterback, Joe Bob ain't gonna write that check anymore.
54:29
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna keep my mouth shut. I'll let the
54:31
Speaker 4: a D handle it.
54:32
Speaker 10: And Vanderbilt the just what I'm saying, Vanderbilt did it
54:38
Speaker 10: for their quarterback.
54:39
Speaker 2: Vanderbilt, which is raised.
54:41
Speaker 4: As a paragon.
54:43
Speaker 10: A parragon university. The athletics have always been secondary to
54:47
Speaker 10: the academic correct.
54:49
Speaker 4: Okay, but they got a taste of what big time
54:51
Speaker 4: is now they like it.
54:53
Speaker 2: They have they like it all of everybody does.
54:55
Speaker 4: But that's absolutely everybody.
54:57
Speaker 2: Like what I'm saying is even though it.
55:00
Speaker 4: Coach Elko is right, Yes, he goes, we're all in
55:03
Speaker 4: it for ourselves.
55:04
Speaker 2: Yes, and you can.
55:05
Speaker 4: Everyone's in it for ourselves.
55:07
Speaker 10: And the NC double A was created by everyone. They
55:12
Speaker 10: were not the one that was saying this is bad.
55:16
Speaker 10: You voted on all those rules. That's why the rule.
55:18
Speaker 2: Book was so thick and so stupid.
55:21
Speaker 10: Okay, it had I It's like me said Roger Clemits
55:25
Speaker 10: needs to be in the Hall of Fame. Let me,
55:27
Speaker 10: the NC double A wasn't all bad. And now we
55:29
Speaker 10: see what happens. I mean, there is.
55:32
Speaker 2: No structure, let me, no rules.
55:35
Speaker 4: This has gotten so bad we're we're advocating partially for
55:40
Speaker 4: the NC double A. That's how bad things are in
55:42
Speaker 4: college athletics right now. Yes, Now, can this lead to something?
55:49
Speaker 4: I'm still skeptical. I don't think so.
55:52
Speaker 10: The chip, the commissioner of the Big Twelve, needs to
55:57
Speaker 10: say he can't play, just like the commissioner of the
56:01
Speaker 10: SEC should have said. The kid at Alabama couldn't play basketball, or.
56:06
Speaker 4: How about this. The CFP has more power than the
56:10
Speaker 4: NC Double A and the CFP. I'm just saying, the
56:14
Speaker 4: CFC can come out right now and say, Hey, any
56:18
Speaker 4: team that Texas Tech plays this year in football, they're
56:22
Speaker 4: not going to be in the CFP.
56:24
Speaker 10: And Tech is not gonna be in the CFL. And
56:26
Speaker 10: Tech ain't either because it's ours. Yeah, and they'll get sued.
56:31
Speaker 4: Well, but that's okay. I'm tired of people not making
56:35
Speaker 4: the right choices because they're afraid of the courts.
56:38
Speaker 10: I'm tired of the court saying we're granting this injunction
56:43
Speaker 10: and then we're going to have the trial after his eligibilities.
56:46
Speaker 4: I don't think you're going to see an end of
56:47
Speaker 4: that anytime soon. Everyone has chip.
56:50
Speaker 2: It's happened here, Texas A.
56:52
Speaker 4: And N has happened here. Everyone has a judge. Everyone
56:55
Speaker 4: has a judge.
56:56
Speaker 10: Okay before judges. The NC double are actually good at
57:01
Speaker 10: some of this stuff. Some of it makes me weird
