  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: We go to Motown, Mowtown, and down and bye bye,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: see you later. The Tigers doing a very nice mitzvah
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: for the Dodgers over the weekend. A tremendous big story.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Everyone's talking about this. The Los Angeles Dodgers, you know,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: really suffering this year, having a bad season, got swept
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: by the Red Sox at home, playing like a Coast
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: League team, Pacific Coast League team, and so the Dodgers
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: went out they needed some help. They went out to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: the Tigers and said, can we have your two time
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: al Cy Young winner? And the Tigers said sure. In fact,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: don't even give us that. Anybody really that good. We
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: don't need anything good. We're the Tigers. And the Dodgers said, okay,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: we'll let's do that. Let's make that happen. And so
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: it happened, and Trek Scooble goes from the Tigers to
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers. They say it's a blockbuster trade. However, the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Tigers didn't really get much in return. So how's it
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: a blockbuster trade? If you didn't see it, perhaps not
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the Detroit Tigers. The headline return is an outfielder names
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: I ear hope. You gotta have hope, you gotta have hope.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: I don't know who the hell that is? The number
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: five prospect.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: And there's nothing I love more than hot prospect talk.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: All you nerds, you love it?
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Yea?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: All get turned on by little prospects, don't you. Yes,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: So the number five prospect, and they also got a
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: couple of other playersague players, fringe major league players like
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: River Ryan.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: That sounds like a porn name, River Ryan.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: And he might be better at that than playing baseball
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: because all he does is get hurt.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: River Ryan.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: So he was included in the transaction, and Scooble instantly
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: sent shock waves around the baseball world. Here and he
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: gives the Dodgers one of the most dominant pitchers in
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: recent years, a front line king of the hill, a
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: number one starting pitcher as the Dodgers, much like a
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: butterball turkey before Thanksgiving, fatten up before October, building the roster.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: And today is our Monday show, and today happens to
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: be the trade deadline.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: As tik tik tik tik tik tik tik tik, tick
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: tick tick, the clock running down.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: If anything happens, we are up all night here with
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: live team coverage, and I'm looking in our newsroom. I'm
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: looking right down there. They're fast asleeping. There their ghosts. Actually,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: there's no news from me, everybody talking about but we
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: will have you covered.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Don't worry. We got you covered all night long here.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: If anything happens, we will give it to you before
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: anyone else here, because everyone else is lazy, and so
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: the only catches. Trek Scouble is a pending free agent
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: at the end of the year. But there won't be
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: baseball next year, or at least part of the year.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: So that's a issue for another day and a good
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: jumping off point. Let us discuss the question, how do
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: you grade the Trek Schouble trade from.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: The Tigers to the Dodgers.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: So we need to grade all parties involved, all parties involved.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: So I've got tax deductible Dyson and congressional subpoena, and
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: we'll combine all of these things together and we are
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: going to make a bucket of tears. This has been
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the greatest couple of days. You idiots, you're also stupid.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I love it. You morons, just keep Crying's not fair. Boo,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: what a.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Bunch of losers, What a bunch of losers. I love it.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: It has been hilarious to watch the reaction. There are
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: so many weak people, and I hope you're not one
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: of them that just have this defeatist attitude. It's embarrassing
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: for you, it's embarrassing for your parents, it's embarrassing if
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: everyone involved. It's embarrassing. Now ask for the trade Malor
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: report card. Time on the Trek Schooble trade from the
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Tigers to the Dodgers. Let's break out the red pen
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: on this one, and the Malord score card reads the
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Detroit Tigers appropriate enough, get a D.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: At least it's an old English D for the.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Detroit Tigers, as they weren't gonna pay the man. They
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: didn't want to pay the man. So if you don't
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: want to pay the man, you gotta get rid of
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the man. They refuse to give him a contract that
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: would not meet the reserve price at the auction. The
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: auction house said, well, you got to meet the reserve probably,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Well we're not going to meet the reserve press okay,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: fine scruples being auctioned. Tigers didn't want to pay him,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: so see you later. And it was not a trade
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: per se was It really was a donation situation by
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the Detroit Tigers, A nice tax deductible donation. You'll thank
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the Tigers when they have to fill out taxes and
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: when tax day comes around here, that tax deduction goes
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: to the Detroit Tigers Charitable Foundation.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: So very nice of them.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Prospects for the poor in this case, the pathetic, My goodness.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: So Detroit is only three games back of the time
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: they made the move, There were three games back of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the wild card in the American League. But you know
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: what that means under five hundred, and when you're under
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: five hundred, you are a contender. You are a faux contender.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: You're a faux contender.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Is what you are.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: And as for the return that the Detroit Tigers got
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: back the return. Every prospect, every single fin prospect that
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: I've heard about since I was a kid, every one
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of these prospects is treated like bitcoin in twenty seventeen, right,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: all hype, no reality, and they're all over hyped. A
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: prospect is a suspect until proven otherwise. And so who
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: cares now, la, And I'm listen, I'm not going to
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: be mister rah Rod Dodger guy because they banned me
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: over there, the Dodgers. They'll get in a plus plus
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: plus on the Malard scorecard. That's for those of you
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: in the back of the room not paying attention, picking
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: you no stop that that's disgusting. A plus plus plus
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: for the Dodgers. And this is what the great teams do.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: The Dodgers of the ultimate team living in the goldilocks
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: own right now. Here's stories about those Yankee teams back
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: in the day and how they just kept winning, and say, oh, man,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: are obviously different back in those days.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: But the Dodgers right now, they are in the goldilock zone.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Even their problems have solutions, and they operate kind of
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: like Amazon operates. At this particular point. They don't care
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: what it costs it doesn't matter. Just do what you
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: have to do. And it's nice when you get teams
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: like they're Tigers who are on board and they're like, hey,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: we'll help you out.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Why not, let's do it.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Okay, sounds good Detroit, the Ewoks and the Dodgers, the
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: evil Empire, dude.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole thing.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: So they just casually added the Dodgers over the weekend
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: a Thermo nuclear warhead and they added that to the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: inner galactical arms race of the baseball trade deadline.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: Here.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: It's like a side dish in Musso and Franks.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: They just added some potatoes, some rice or something like
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: that there, and the happy days keep on going. The
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: happy days keep on going for the Dodgers. Now page
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: two here, So the move, let's talk about the visceral reaction,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: which is still ongoing. We are in the middle of
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: this visceral reaction from the dingle berries that are out there, right,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: they absolute dingle berries amongst us here hyperventilating.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Oh it's not right.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, my goodness, I'm never watching baseball again.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: It's not fair.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: My god, get a grip, you freaking morons, my goodness.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: All right, So the question, what do you say to
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the people, and that may be you, What do you
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: say to the people who claim the Trek Scooble trade
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: shows that Dodgers.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Have run baseball. It's not right by baseball's ruin.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you pearl clutching lunatics. How do you live your
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: life seriously?
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: You're clutching pearls over a baseball trade.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: And your team could have made the trade.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Yankee Braves or Brewers or Phillies any they could have
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: made the same exact trade.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: You didn't make the trade. You could have, You should have,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: you would have. You didn't make the trade.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: The Dodgers didn't do this alone. And that's the part
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: many of you are too stupid to understand. The Dodgers
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: did not do this alone. Okay, uh, this was not
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: done in a Dison vacuum cleaner.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: It was not.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: It takes two to tango. Last I checked here and
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: so Detroit. They had options. They could have gone and said,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: all right, we'll trade school. The Yankees could have gone
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to the brew Crew. They had bids in the Phillies
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: if they wanted them, could have gotten them the Atlanta
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Braves and a bunch of other teams that are in contention,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: and they made proposals the Tigers unless the Dodgers put
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: a gun to the head of the front office. The
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Tigers said, okay, we'll take the sloppy Joe's from la Is.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: That's what we want. We want to sloppy Joe's. And
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: so they or not. The Tigers, last I checked, they
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: were not brainwashed. They weren't hypnotized by the Dawyers. They said, yes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: that's what we want. That is what we would like.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: We would like to get the super villains and help
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: them out. Give them our best player. Sounds good. Now,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the best of us means as good as all the rest.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: We know that's not quite true. So blame the people
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: that actually did it. Blame them, Blame their asses, Blame
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the ones that did it. It's not the Dodgers. It's
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: not the Dodgers. It's the team that has the old
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: English DA, the Tigers. That's the team right there. Detroit
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: made a business decision. Is it a bad business decision? Now,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: there's a theory that Scooba wanted to go play for
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers, and so the Tigers did him a solid.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: They did him. Hey, you know a way to go.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: We like you helped us out.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: You want some Saion awards, so we'll do it good
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: for you and send you out to LA. But whatever
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the case, right, bad business is still business.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: It's still business. That's the way it is.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: So the Tigers gift wrapped Trek Schooble, and you should
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: be upset. You should be upset if you're you're a
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Tiger fan because you didn't get seemingly much in return.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: If you're a fan of another team, then just look
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: at the gift rapping there and be upset about that
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: if you want. But it's I believe it's a net positive.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: As we've maintained, baseball needs villains. The Dodgers are the villains,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: and it's fricking great. They lead baseball and road attendants,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: they lead baseball and home attendants. Everyone said, I've never
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: watching baseball again because the Dodgers. Well, you're all a
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: bunch of liars. Because if either that or there's so
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: many other people that want to watch, you don't matter.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: You're irrelevant. You're a grain of sand on the beach.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Get out of here, because the Dodgers are hot, and
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: that's where it's at. And the Dodgers go out there
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and just by doing this. But every team supplied apparently
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: wishes they could have Terrek Scubl. Here, the Dodgers become
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: the quinn essential w WE soilent. You get the heels
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: and the pretty boys, right, and the baby faces, and
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: you got the Dodgers out there, who are the heels.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Every great story needs a heel, and the Dodgers of that.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: The villains are the ones that feed the algorithm. And
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: that's what the Dodgers are in this. And the louder the.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: Booze boom boom boom boom boom.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Boom, the louder the bows, the bigger the box office baby,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: and the bigger.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: The ratings and all that stuff.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: And so the fact that the Dodgers go out there,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: now this will guarantee you they go they go out
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: and somehow choke this away. All right, the primal scream,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: the absolute primal scream, will will be over the top.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: Right, it will listen. Boo hoo hoo.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: The twenty nine other fan bases complaining, well, really not
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: twenty nine, because there's like fifteen teams in baseball. They
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: aren't even really trying. How we doing Rockies, uh A's Angels.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Teams like that the yeah, the the primal scream will
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: happen if the Dodgers don't win, and then you'll get
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: this or gasmic bliss from everyone. Oh it's so great
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: that it's kind of like when the Miami Heat lost
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: to the Dallas Mavericks when they had Lebron and Wade
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: and Bosh and they gagged against the Mavericks with Dirk Novinski.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: The joy, the pure joy that so many people had.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: That'll be the same baseball version of that. And so
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: it will be biblical to Dodgers not win. And if
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: they win, it's great because everyone will be complaining, Oh
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: didn't watch Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, So to the haters
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: out there, I say, Philly is what I say. Capitoll
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: pay Philly is what I say. All right, now, last word.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: So the Internet has decided. The Interweb has decided that
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Listen twenty twenty six is all over and turn out
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: the last It's all done with the party. So it's
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: last I checked. It's early August. It's trade deadline day
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball, and they should just hand out
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the piece of metal now and commence with the workstopics.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: That's the mindset of these Neanderthals. That's the mindset right there. Again,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: they were raised by poor parents who did not teach
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: them the fighting spirit of competition, and the bigger they are,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: the harder they fall, and how sweet it would be.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: A team will become legends immediately if they beat the
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Dodgers in the playoffs in twenty twenty six. So here's
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: the other question, and really the bottom line question. Does
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: adding trek Schouble to the front of the Dodger rotation
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: wrap things up for.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: The World Series?
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: For the Dodgers, does this wrap things up? So? On
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: the way I answer is on a simulation, you're like, oh, yeah, sure,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: why not they win?
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Okay, fine, all that, but you don't. Unfortunately, you don't
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: win titles by winning the transaction. Unfortunately. I know this
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: is you might be dazed and confused by this, but
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: you actually still have to play the games. And Scoople
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: could go out his first start as a Dodger and
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: have snap crackle pop and be done for the season. Now,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: these pitchers are fragile, and scoop Ball was already hurt
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: earlier this year. For the Tigers, there's no guarantee even
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: plays the whole way for the Tigers for the Dodgers
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: coming over from the Tigers. So that there's the injury
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: factor and the fact that baseball continues to be a
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: weak link sport. Even the big bad Blue crew. They
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: needed a home run from a guy that sucks in
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Miguel Rojas against Toronto.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: He blows. Not a very good baseball player, but he
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: a big home run.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: And that is the baseball at his essence is it's
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: a weak link sport. You need a stiff like Miguel
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Rojas to hit home run, just like the you know,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: as much as Otani and those guys, you need Rojas.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: And that's the way it works. And so Scooble, he
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: doesn't guarantee anything. Does it look better? Sure, look, but
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: you look at your tablet. You're like, man, that's great.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: My eyeballs are popping out of my head. That's really
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: cool and all that. And it makes it harder to
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: screw things up when you have Schooble in your rotation. Again,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: it doesn't guarantee Diddley squat, you know, Didley squad.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: And that's it.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: And we will address the copy bara the kappy bar
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: in the room here when you talk about this and
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: and the people that say, well, the Dodgers didn't really
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: need Scooble, this is a luxury.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: Add on, they didn't really need him and all that stuff.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Well to that, my rebuttal is counsel. My rebuttal is
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: you don't know ball. Because all the wins the Dodgers got,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: they got their ass kicked by the Red Sox this weekend.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: But all the wins the Dodgers are put up, all
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: of them scoople. Not a luxury, a necessity, not a
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: bar necessity, but a necessity.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: And here's why.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: If you look behind Yoshinobu Yamamoto and that Dodger rotation,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: it is a house of cards. Show is damage goods
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: on the mound. Blake Snell, don't get me started on Blakestone.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Bro. I ain't pitching unless I get mine. Bro, I'm
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: risking my life.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: Bro.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Blake Snell, that schmuck, king of all schmucks. Blake
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Snell and Tyler Glass. Now who's not as annoying, But
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: they're mono a modo, these two.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: I can't say what I want to say.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Malingering, malingering Tyler Snell and Tyler Glass. Now they got
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: paid and the Dodgers got played. Who could have told
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: them to stay away, especially from Blake Snell. My god,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: these guys are basically twitch streamers and occasionally pitch, and
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: very infrequently do they pitch, these two guys. So, now
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: with Yamamoto at the top and you've got schooball the
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Dodgers have that lethal one to two punch going into
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: a playoff situation, a two man congressional subpoena, if you will,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: for the Dodgers.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: And they haven't clinched anything, you know that.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: And the only thing, I guess, the only thing they've
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: really wrapped up is more talk radio segments. There'll be
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of talk radio segments and a lot of
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: trending topics on social media.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: And that's it.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: And now they have to go out there and not
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: ride the vomit comet and win the third one and
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: next time they play in a couple of years, whenever
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: they can win a fourth in a row.
• 18:23

• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the driving wall boozing incident heard around the Western world,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Around the Western world. If you've not heard the latest
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: developments over the weekend, perhaps.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Not sais well. This happened back on Friday.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: CBS removing Tony Romo from the lead NFL broadcast team
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: after initially showing support for Romo. He is currently on hiatus.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: He's on a sabbatical from the CBS booth with JJ
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Watt the Golden Boy, jj Watt stepping into the number
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: one analyst role alongside Jim Nance as a Romo is
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: out on leave and I'm sure he'll go get some therapy.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Mayber Tiger Woods got therapy. He went somewhere on a
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: did he go to a bed and breakfast? Somewhere in
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Europe to get his alcohol therapy. I think so yes,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: or medication therapy. Where's Romo gonna go?
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Can Coon gonna get a little alcohol therapy in CanCon?
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: No?
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: How about south of France? Anything there?
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Okay, we'll see Burma. Can he go to Burma? How
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: about Bora Bora? Romo in Bora Bora? Who says no?
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: Anyway?
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: So that's where we are. The word making the rounds
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: over the weekend, the media Insider Nerds Media Insider Nerds
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: claiming that CBS is having some internal issues. There are
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: factions that are done done dne with Romo. It is
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: not universal, and the concern is now do we get
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: rid of him? Because there are people that love Romo
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: and think he's great and want to keep him. There's
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: others that think, eh, we can do better, and we
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: paid him a lot of money. He's not living up
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: to the contract and so there's some internal strife over there.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: And this also is set up for a massive legal
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: brew ha ha, a massive legal brew haha. We're talking
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: about as much as seventy plus million. That's a lot
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: of pesos seventy plus million remaining on Tony Romo's contract
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: after the network placed him on indefinite leave over the weekend.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: discuss the question, what are the odds? Give me the
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: odds that Tony Romo is out, that he loses his
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: cushy no show job at CBS calling NFL games all
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: because of his documented arrest in Wisconsin for boozing around.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: So I've got Billboard, Hot one hundred, Gondola, and hot pocket,
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together, and
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: we're going to have some ice water, because you have
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: ice water in your veins.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Ice water in your veins when you're Tony Romo right now.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: So number jump the gun number on there we go.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: See you gotta wait for the one and practice. Okay,
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: let's try it. Number on run.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna set the Malard Sportsbook odds on this
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: at minus one fifty minus one fifty that Tony Romo
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: is Gonzo, like the Muppet Gonzo. That gives him a
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: sixty percent chance that his ass is grass at CBS.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: So it's sixty forty split. This is the opportunity if
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: CBS truly does have internal issues with Romo, which I'm
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: skeptical of that's the reporting. If you buy that this
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: is the opportunity to put Romo into the portal, the
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: transfer portal, and get out of it. Now do they
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: do that? Do they use the transfer portal and have
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: CBS calling a professional having Romo called professional wrestling somewhere else?
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: If he's out now he completely blew up the whole
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: America's nice guy image thing. That the narrative that CBS
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: had spent what eight years, over eight years manufacturing about
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Romo and all this stuff. Now, he was mostly polite,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: he didn't want to contact his lawyer when he got
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: pulled over, well hammered, it would appear he was very nice.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: But it's pretty simple here.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: You don't get hammered, drive then apparently lie to the
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: police and expect them to say at CBS, you know, accidents,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: mistakes happened. That this is that now, so both you
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: there are again there are some CBS brass. This is
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: the reporting that think that Romo is lazy. He doesn't
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: prepare for the broadcast, He just shows up, doesn't do
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: his homework. And now you can add on to that
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: a raging alcoholic and a liar and a seventy two
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: million dollar liability. All right, So in Romo's golf lingo,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: that is what you call a quadruple bogie. That's a
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: quadruple bogie, which is I don't think good now, Romo's
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: golden parachute, and what a golden parachute it is. Just
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: got the factory recall notice which is not good from
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: the manufacturer that Golden Forever contract that he signed over
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: at CBS. So he told the cops that he was
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: visiting his grandparents. It's now been confirmed that all four
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: of his grandparents are across the Pearly Gates. So unless
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Romo was planning to cross over the Great Beyond or
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: possibly go to I don't know, the cemetery in Wisconsin
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: to see his grandparents. I don't think his babushka was
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: going to give him a thing of vodka from the graveyard,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: but what do I know. That would be quite the
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: story if the babushka said, you know, I've been dead
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: for about ten years, but I'm going to hook you up, Tony.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: I got a great bartender here at the cemetery and
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: we're going to take care of you.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Boy. That would be great.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: That'd be fun at night when the cemetery is all dark,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: and they just pass out boost all the dead people
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: and they call drink there and have a great time.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: That'd be wonderful, it would be absolutely good. So unless
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: the lawyer can prove and Romo's lawyered up, unless the
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: lawyers can prove that he was again driving to see
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Grandma and Grandpa's graves, he's pretty much porked on the
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: morals clause, which every contract has, every single one of
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: these contracts, the standard boilerplate contract. I've worked in the
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: entertainment business for many, many years, and every contract I've signed,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: whether it's here at Fox or CBS or NBC rather
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: where I worked a couple of times, or other places,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: it's all the same. There's all the standard moral clause
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: contract language which is just written by one law firm
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: in New York and then given.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: To all the other lawyers.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: And it's the same birth basic thing that they put
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: into all these contracts. So Romo, it would appear if
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: you don't like Romo, he crossed the line.
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: In fact, he didn't just cross the line.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: He pulled vaulted over the line, and he held onto
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: his beer and didn't even spill anything. That's pretty impressive, right,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: I mean it's right over the pole vault thing, and
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: that's it. Now, it's not all bad news. It's not
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: all bad news for Tony Romo. Here Romo is now
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: the inspiration around the music nation for Bosha's updated Billboard
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Hot one hundred hit Cruising and Boozing Morals clause mix. It's,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: of course a continuation of the classic song.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: This is the new version.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: It's Cruising and Boozing by Bosher CBS can if they want,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: they can ditch the Blockbuster contract, get rid of that Romo.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: The lawyer will help at this point, based on the
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: video evidence and whatnot. It's more like a divine intervention situation.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: So there you go, all right now.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, to the video game world, more outrage caused by
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: a freaking video game.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: Are you kidding me? You bloody morons? What's wrong with you? Well?
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: EA Sports in hot water in the game, apparently out
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: of the game, as they're getting a lot of pushback,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of blowback. I don't if you saw this
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: or not good story. So EA Sports recently sparking a major,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: major brushfire, major backlash after ranking the reigning Super Bowl
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: champions of the National Football League. Those Seattle Seahawks as
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: just the tenth tenth best team in Madden NFL twenty seven,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: number ten, number ten.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Despite Seattle entering the season with that championship roster, that hangover,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: that glow, the whole thing, Seattle received an eighty four
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: overall team rating. We are told that Trails Division rival
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: the Larms you can arrame at all day and you
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: can arram it all night, by seven points. And the
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Seahawks are not just behind the Rams, they trail a
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: total of four NFC teams overall. So Seattle got the bling, bling,
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: and yet you look at it and you're like, well,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: according to this, they're the fourth ranked team in the
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: National Football Conference. The controversy also worsening as EA's social
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: media team sent out a graphic recently where they made
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: a mistake in mentioning the Seattle Seahawks, and the mistake
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: was they didn't sell They didn't spell the Seahawks correctly.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: They spelled it seawha wkas, which is not anywhere close
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: to how you would spell Seahawks. Like, I'm not that
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: good at spelling, and we all are not great at spelling.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Because we have this thing called spell check on our
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: smartphones and things like that. Even I know how to
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: spell Seahawks there, and so of course this led to disrespect.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: You don't respect the champions of the NFL. How dare you?
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: How dare you that? All thing pointing, many pointing on.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: The Seattle franchise finished last season by defeating the forty
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: nine ers in the Division round the Rams they got
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: helped for that, and then the Patriots. Yet Madden still
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: ranked all three ahead of the Seahawks in the latest game.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: So the question for the esteem panel, the question for
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: the esteam panel, the Seahawks being ranked a tenth best
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: team on Madden NFL twenty seven. Is this unfair? Is
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: it unfit? Tot ea Sports crossed the line? Is this
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: unfair what they did here? So after a minutes long
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: deliberation and review of the available information, we have determined
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: the Court of Ben Males Show, the Court of Ben
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Males Show is determined that yes, Ea Sports, they go
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: full ac DC here, Yes they did, and I love it,
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: big balls, no apologies. They went ac DC, big balls,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: no apology, And Seattle being ranked ten is not unfair.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: According to the Court of malar it is not unfair.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: It is a rc situation, not the cola that would
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: be a reality check.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: A reality check.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: Seattle fans can file formal complaints with the Department of
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Imaginary Grievances. However, however, Madden is just a lighthouse.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: All it is is like a lighthouse in.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Maine, guiding the twelves, guiding the twelves away from the
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: rocks of delusion. Stay way, stair way, stay way, Stay away.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: From the rocks of delusion.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: The Super Bowl run of last football season by the
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, that is what's known.
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: As a glitch. It was a glitch, That's what happened.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Remember that fugazy two point conversion that was handed erroneously
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: during a TV timeout. During a TV timeout to Seattle,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks did not climb Mount Everest. They took the gondola,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: is what they did. And the people of EA Sports
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: had the intestinal fortitude to point that out. Winning that
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl was the sporting equivalent of you know how
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: you like your iPhone will auto correct turning me into magnificent.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: That's essentially what happened here, right. They didn't build a
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: fortress in the Pacific Northwest. They built the Kiosk is
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: what they built, that's all. And even the village idiot
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: wins Bingo. Even the village idiot wins Bingo when the
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: machine jams and they just congratulations.
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: You're a winner at Bengo. Way to go. So orts
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: did not come.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: To lick the toes of the fans of the Seattle Seahawks.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: There.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: The rating is actually a PSA. It's a public service announcement.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: It's not unfair, it's accurate. That's about where the Seahawks are.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: They don't have a good quarterback. Sam Darnold's a stiff,
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Nobody wants him. They don't have many name brand players
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: around that team. And so that's where you are. You're
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: at number ten. Enjoy your number ten, all right. Meanwhile,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: to Nashville we go, where Danny and Nashville left his heart,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: even though he lives in Miami. To Nashville we go,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: so Will Levis. Will Levis made it clear he still
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: believes he is a starting caliber quarterback. He talked about
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: this over the weekend, declaring there are not thirty two
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks in this league better than me. He stated, I
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: know that for sure. Now that makes it odd that
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: will Levis is not campaigning for the starting job. He's
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: campaigning to be the backup.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: Not a starter. Not a starter. We're here talking about
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: a backup. So the question for the class, here's the question.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: Will Levis says he's a top thirty two quarterback in
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: the NFL, top thirty two quarterback in the NFL. How
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: does that hit you?
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: All Right? So NFL started.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Obviously you need irrational confidence in that world. To succeed
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: in that world, you have to have confidence. But Will
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Levis claiming he's a top thirty two quarterback is like
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: a guy bragging that he is an expert chef and
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: he's going to impress his girlfriend on how impressive he
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: is at cooking.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: Meals and he knows how to come.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: And of course the problem is he thinks he's a
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: chef because he wants microwaved a hot pocket and that
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: qualifies him for chef.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: It was a really good hot pocket, but you.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Just put it in there and you hit the microwave
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: thing of a jig for a couple of minutes and
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: then you have your hot pocket. It's not really cooking
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: a real meal. You see what I'm saying there, that's
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: the problem there, or go he sounds like a buffoon.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: He sounds like a total buffoon.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: If Will Levis is a top thirty two quarterback in
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: the NFL, that's the case, then I am a top
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: thirty two neurosurgeon. All right, I am a deliciously great surgeon, master,
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: maestro the whole thing. That's where I'm so far, so
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: far the NFL. If you look at Will Levis's NFL
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: legacy and touch up my work if I'm wrong, correct
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong. Here's what I jotted down on
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: my notes app on my phone for Will Levis. His
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: claim to fame in the NFL consists of his fetish
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: for mayonnaise. Remember he made a joke at the NFL
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: draft and ended up getting a mayonnaise endorsement. And he
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: also became the face if you remember a couple of
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: years ago of the Surrender Cobra. The surrender Cobra is
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: you can see this on the YouTube. You've got your
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: hands behind the back of your head and your arms
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: are folded. That's called the surrender Cobra. And he famously
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: did that after a bonehead play for the Titans a
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: couple of years ago.
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: And so here we are.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: He's the face of the surrender cobermeme and mayonnaise.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: That's where we are. That's it.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: On the field, he.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Has been a helter skelter type of quarterback.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: Shout out to yeah, you know.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Anyway, a fireworks show, fireworks show, great, great performance on
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: a throw, and then it's like a fireworks show run
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: by toddlers because he'll make a great play and then
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: make a mistake struggling to read defenses on the very
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: next play and all that stuff. So the Titans already
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: answered the question of whether or not Will Levis is
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: a top thirty two quarterback in the NFL. They drafted
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: cam Ward and he thinks his team is ass his
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: claim of theme cam Ward is we ass that's his
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: claim to fame. So now Will Levis is battling Mitchell Trubisky,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: who also stinks to be qbat number two.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: You be number.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Two there in Tennessee. So the confidence, thank you, leprechaun.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that. So the confidence is what you want
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: from Will Levis, but it has to has to cast
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: checks in actual games. And Levis had an opportunity and
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: it did not go well. So right now his resume
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: is bouncing bouncing, bouncing, bouncing, bouncing, bouncing, bounce.

  Speaker 4: w NBA. Yes, and then over the weekend there was
• 37:07

• 37:11
  Speaker 4: of taken as a shot at Sophie Cunningham.

• 37:15
  Speaker 4: Ben, do you think that they will ever allow a
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: trans woman in the w NBA.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: I think they should. I think I think blind Scott
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: should be the first. What do you think I think
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: if I own, if I owned a w NBA team,
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: I'd have nothing but a team?
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: Why not? What the hell? I do love?

  Speaker 1: not about the sport, it's just about the culture war.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: It's wild, all right?
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: Next, all right, Jimmy has them finally addressed the Miles
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: Garrett trade. And then what he did is he said
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: it was it was Andrew Berry's decision.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you believe him. No, that comes from ownership. Obviously,
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: it's ownership. No, it's next.
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: Do Sean Payton get enough credit for turning around the Broncos?
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Well, if I want to pass. No, he doesn't get
