- 1:03Speaker 1: Philly sports writers, you know, maybe up until ya because
- 1:06Speaker 1: you know he's been covering the sixes for the decades now,
- 1:09Speaker 1: but now he's just doing it so terribly.
- 1:12Speaker 2: It's sad.
- 1:13Speaker 1: Shown we're gonna need to bring him on and just
- 1:15Speaker 1: knock some sense into him. His name's Keith POMPEII, And yeah,
- 1:19Speaker 1: we're gonna bring up a prediction he made at the
- 1:22Speaker 1: stop of here that is just totally backfiring on him.
- 1:26Speaker 2: He's looking foolish right now.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Let's just say that terrific segue there, Tony becomes.
- 1:31Speaker 2: On the subject of looking foolish.
- 1:33Speaker 1: You know, there are so many fools out there who
- 1:36Speaker 1: mismanage their money. So that's why, right now it's time
- 1:39Speaker 1: for a word from our good friends at Crypto dot com.

- 2:14Speaker 2: All right, now, that we.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Got that business out of the way, let's get right
- 2:17Speaker 1: into it, Tony with our top story story, all right,
- 2:23Speaker 1: our top story the NBA Playoffs. The sixer is just
- 2:26Speaker 1: rolling through the Celtics as we told you, and the
- 2:30Speaker 1: Lakers also losing Game five to the Warriors, which is
- 2:33Speaker 1: you know what I read the next morning because I
- 2:35Speaker 1: didn't stay up to watch that game, you Tony.
- 2:37Speaker 2: No chance, way too late. Well, anyway, who cares? You know?
- 2:41Speaker 2: It was the story before the.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Lakers Warriors game, which was much more interesting. ESPN's Mike
- 2:48Speaker 1: Greenberg just coming off the top rope with a terrific take. Right.
- 2:51Speaker 1: He said the Lakers should rest their starters in game
- 2:55Speaker 1: five so they'd be ready for Game six.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Yeah, play that clip. I'm going down with the ship
- 3:00Speaker 2: on this theory.
- 3:01Speaker 4: The Lakers have no chance of winning Game five of
- 3:03Speaker 4: the series.
- 3:04Speaker 2: The Warriors are going to be playing for their dynasty
- 3:06Speaker 2: at home with the crowd. They're going to win.
- 3:08Speaker 4: Don't waste any of Lebron and AD's energy on this game.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Wow, solid, that makes sense, makes sense.
- 3:16Speaker 1: That was clearly the right strategy what he said here,
- 3:19Speaker 1: and you know it proves what we've been saying on
- 3:21Speaker 1: this show for you know, more than two decades now.
- 3:24Speaker 1: You know, when you want to hear the right strategy,
- 3:27Speaker 1: the smart strategy, the last people you should listen to
- 3:31Speaker 1: are the coaches and trainers on the team. To close
- 3:34Speaker 1: they you don't know best of the people like us,
- 3:36Speaker 1: people like Mike Greenberg got colleague in this industry. You know,
- 3:40Speaker 1: Greenberg is he he has the prospective here because you know,
- 3:43Speaker 1: he's not all up.
- 3:44Speaker 2: With the team.
- 3:45Speaker 1: He's in a TV studio three thousand miles away.
- 3:48Speaker 2: That's the place to be. You know, those coaches, they're
- 3:51Speaker 2: just two inside, Isn't that right, Don'ty?
- 3:53Speaker 3: You know, this reminds me of when I went to
- 3:56Speaker 3: visit the Grand Canyon. Everybody's looking around and I'm like,
- 3:59Speaker 3: I don't get it, what's the big deal. But then
- 4:02Speaker 3: when I got back home and watched the VHS called
- 4:05Speaker 3: America's Natural Wonders shot from a helicopter above the canyon floor.
- 4:10Speaker 3: They're sitting in my living room at home, I could
- 4:14Speaker 3: finally appreciate the majesty of this earth and creation.
- 4:20Speaker 1: Just so well done putting that in such terrific and
- 4:23Speaker 1: clear perspective for our audience that Don'ty just went done,
- 4:27Speaker 1: and you know, it just proved so clearly why we
- 4:30Speaker 1: should listen to the wisdom of Mike Greenberg as also lost.
- 4:34Speaker 1: And now actually, right now, we're gonna look at the camera,
- 4:37Speaker 1: right at Donty. We're looking right at the sixth straight
- 4:39Speaker 1: Decan mission. You got this game six coming up. The
- 4:43Speaker 1: clear answer is to just rest all your players fit
- 4:47Speaker 1: if you want to, it's the smart way.
- 4:50Speaker 2: And just rest up for them one hundred, I said,
- 4:53Speaker 2: game seven. There you go, just the scrty strategy wrapped
- 4:56Speaker 2: down absolutely, Well said perfect. Yeah.
- 4:59Speaker 1: Well, let's move over to the NFL, where there's just
- 5:01Speaker 1: a fascinating story. Tony Colts owner Jim Ursay has accused
- 5:06Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders of tampering and so I'm allegedly called
- 5:11Speaker 1: retired Colts quarterback Andrew Luck to.
- 5:14Speaker 2: Woo him out of retired.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Now interesting, he really got to hand it to the commander.
- 5:20Speaker 2: They're leaving no stone unturned.
- 5:21Speaker 1: You know, I guess if you can't win with Carston Wentz, well,
- 5:25Speaker 1: the only next best option is a guy with no
- 5:27Speaker 1: spleen who hates football. So you know, since Andrew Luck
- 5:31Speaker 1: is apparently off limits, what we're going to do here is,
- 5:34Speaker 1: you know, we decided to help the Commanders and come
- 5:37Speaker 1: up with a list of similar options for quarterbacks for them.
- 5:41Speaker 2: So here, let's presto a graphic. Right.
- 5:42Speaker 1: First, G three, you know, drafted the same year as
- 5:46Speaker 1: Luck knows the organization, which is so key, you know,
- 5:50Speaker 1: knowing the organization.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Familion.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Next on the list, an obvious choice, Alex Smith.
- 5:54Speaker 2: Oh yeah, great sources.
- 5:56Speaker 1: Tell Us is one functioning leg is still working pretty well.
- 6:00Speaker 1: And absolutely he knows the organization, which is so key.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Familiary.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Next on the list, another great name, Mark Rippin. He's
- 6:09Speaker 1: also he's already led Washington to two Super Bowls. He's
- 6:13Speaker 1: only sixty. You know, people are working these days into
- 6:16Speaker 1: their seventies. Now, Yeah, you just bring.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Them in and there you go, exactly, and he's got
- 6:22Speaker 3: a winning pedigree.
- 6:23Speaker 2: And and finally our last name, Joe Thiisman.
- 6:27Speaker 1: You know, he's got tremendous veteran experience there, and you
- 6:31Speaker 1: know it would be one of the greatest comebacks of
- 6:33Speaker 1: all time. You know, with the miracles of modern science,
- 6:36Speaker 1: what they can do these days with artificial legs. You know,
- 6:39Speaker 1: maybe you put them on like one of those avatar
- 6:42Speaker 1: things that the guy had, an avatar.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Absolutely, Tony the court.
- 6:45Speaker 1: If the players are already wearing that much equipment, really,
- 6:48Speaker 1: when you think about it, what's what's steel legs and padding?
- 6:51Speaker 2: What extra is that?
- 6:52Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, it's nothing. All right, let's move to another
- 6:55Speaker 1: controversy out of the NFL. You know, people they're already
- 6:59Speaker 1: up in arms about this NFL schedule because it includes
- 7:02Speaker 1: a Friday night game for the first time. They're going
- 7:05Speaker 1: to be playing on Black Friday, November twenty fourth, and
- 7:09Speaker 1: so that people are saying that adding another night of
- 7:11Speaker 1: football as.
- 7:11Speaker 2: They always do, they say it adds to the injury risk.
- 7:14Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I read that danger. You know, we
- 7:16Speaker 1: listen on this show to complaints. We hear the people,
- 7:20Speaker 1: but what we do that separates us as we come
- 7:22Speaker 1: up with solutions. And Tony you said something the other
- 7:25Speaker 1: day that was just so smart. It was just such
- 7:28Speaker 1: a simple solution. Go, don't tell the people.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Here's my solution.
- 7:32Speaker 3: If the players need more days to rest, then there's
- 7:35Speaker 3: clearly a simple fix.
- 7:37Speaker 2: Add more days to the week.
- 7:39Speaker 3: If weeks had eight days instead of seven, there would
- 7:42Speaker 3: be no problem. So I propose that during NFL season
- 7:46Speaker 3: we add a day called Moosday, which comes between Monday
- 7:50Speaker 3: and Tuesday. Now you're probably saying, won't this add more
- 7:54Speaker 3: days to the year. No, because you just simply remove
- 7:58Speaker 3: seventeen days from more August. Nobody likes August anyway, It's
- 8:02Speaker 3: boring and hot.
- 8:04Speaker 2: And everyone's over it.
- 8:06Speaker 3: So there at Moosday plus take away half of August
- 8:10Speaker 3: problem solved.
- 8:14Speaker 1: Just an absolutely brilliant solution by you, Tony, and thank you.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Don't be surprised people when September rolls around and you're
- 8:21Speaker 1: all rushing out to buy new calendars.
- 8:23Speaker 2: Yeah, and get used to saying TGI M yeah Moosday.
- 8:27Speaker 1: There you go from that brilliance to one of the
- 8:30Speaker 1: most pathetic stories, not just out of the NFL, Tony,
- 8:33Speaker 1: but in all the sports. Of course, I'm talking about
- 8:36Speaker 1: the reports that the Chiefs are planning to restructure Patrick
- 8:40Speaker 1: mahomes contract to make Dan the highestpetic player in the NFL.
- 8:44Speaker 1: Now we all know why this is happening, don't we, Tony.
- 8:47Speaker 1: You know, because he wants to top Lamar Jackson, the
- 8:51Speaker 1: highest paded player.
- 8:52Speaker 2: It's because he wants.
- 8:53Speaker 1: The top Jalen Hurt so short weeks was the NFL's
- 8:58Speaker 1: highest s paping Eagles gave him that much deserved contract.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Now people out there they're saying, well, Mahomes, well he
- 9:05Speaker 1: should be the highest paid player because he beat Hurts
- 9:08Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Oh really did he did? Eat?
- 9:11Speaker 1: People? You know, when looking at the outcome, you lay people.
- 9:16Speaker 1: You always want to compare offense to defense. But what
- 9:19Speaker 1: you gotta do is.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Compare offense to offense. Isn't that right? When you do that?
- 9:26Speaker 2: Hurts beat Mahomes soundly? Hurts. Hey, look at these stats.
- 9:31Speaker 1: Yeah, Hurts had four touchdowns, Mahomes had three.
- 9:34Speaker 2: There you go.
- 9:34Speaker 1: Look at passing yards. Yeah, Hurts had three hundred and four.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Mahomes had a lowly one hundred and eighty two.
- 9:40Speaker 2: Wow.
- 9:41Speaker 1: The most important stat of course, I'm talking about two
- 9:44Speaker 1: point conversions. Hurts had won Mahomes goose egg zero and
- 9:49Speaker 1: that just seals it right there, doesn't it?
- 9:51Speaker 2: Tony?
- 9:52Speaker 3: As they say the game is one on the goal line,
- 9:56Speaker 3: they do.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Well, I'd love to discuss this more, Tony.
- 10:00Speaker 1: It's time to get our guest on the line here
- 10:02Speaker 1: and bring him on the FUSCO satellite.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Why it's not time for corrections? Yeah, what are you doing?
- 10:09Speaker 2: What are you doing?
- 10:11Speaker 4: He's not on the line.
- 10:14Speaker 2: Did Pompeii did you confirm with him? Yes? You did?
- 10:21Speaker 2: You just did?
- 10:21Speaker 1: You?
- 10:22Speaker 4: Just?
- 10:22Speaker 2: Are you making this up so you get more air time?
- 10:24Speaker 2: Is that what you you? That's what's going on here?
- 10:26Speaker 2: Put Pompeii Keith to give you there Keith. He's not there.
- 10:31Speaker 1: So you're saying that Keith POMPEII is not coming on
- 10:35Speaker 1: the show today.
- 10:37Speaker 3: Unbelievable. Whatever, we don't need him, pompe You know, you.
- 10:44Speaker 1: Talk about a beat writer, Tony, he's gonna be a
- 10:47Speaker 1: beat up right after this.
- 10:48Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Yeah, he's gonna be enough to Keith Pompey's house. Yeah,
- 10:53Speaker 1: and uh not just give him a Sixers report. We're
- 10:55Speaker 1: gonna give him an eighty six's report.
- 10:57Speaker 2: Yeah. If you catch my drift, we're gonna kill him exactly.
- 11:02Speaker 1: You know what's going on here, Tony is that he's
- 11:04Speaker 1: chickening out because he knows that. We know that in
- 11:08Speaker 1: his season predictions at the beginning of the season he
- 11:11Speaker 1: said the Sixers weren't going to get.
- 11:13Speaker 2: Past the second round. Unbelieve the Celtics was still the
- 11:16Speaker 2: better team. And look now now he can't own up
- 11:19Speaker 2: to it.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Oh, why we have this moment, Tony, Since we go
- 11:24Speaker 1: to have this at time, maybe we should just have
- 11:27Speaker 1: a little word with Keith there, right. I guess you
- 11:29Speaker 1: know what's going on, Tony is these writers. You know,
- 11:32Speaker 1: they're sitting there writing there, they're taking the time with
- 11:35Speaker 1: their right.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Yeah, and they don't turn off the phones. I can't
- 11:39Speaker 2: any I can't.
- 11:41Speaker 1: I need to take two days to write my report
- 11:43Speaker 1: about the game.
- 11:44Speaker 2: Oh exactly.
- 11:46Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, Keith, game's already taking place. The next game
- 11:49Speaker 1: is probably going to be over by the time. He's
- 11:52Speaker 1: probably still home writing about Game one.
- 11:54Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, don't worry everybody. I got my Game one
- 11:57Speaker 2: article done. Yeah, don't worry. Here it comes a thousand words. Yeah.
- 12:03Speaker 1: You know, Tony, this kind of behavior, unprofessional behavior.
- 12:08Speaker 2: It can't go unpunished, can't. You know?
- 12:11Speaker 1: There's something that you and I we've discussed off air
- 12:14Speaker 1: privately for years.
- 12:15Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about. Time it's time.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Maybe it's it's time we share this with the audience
- 12:22Speaker 1: out there. We've never done this on air, but you know,
- 12:25Speaker 1: certain certain measures, there's certain times called for certain measures.
- 12:29Speaker 2: There's got to be reconcussions for this. They have to.
- 12:32Speaker 2: And so here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna show
- 12:34Speaker 2: you right now our FUSCO list. Ye pull it up.
- 12:39Speaker 1: These are all the people who have wronged us through
- 12:41Speaker 1: the years. Of course, Number one, you got to have
- 12:43Speaker 1: on the list, Tom Brady, just any list you gotta have.
- 12:47Speaker 2: He's got to be a part of it whatever it is. Yeah. Uh.
- 12:51Speaker 1: Number two, Uh, Donovan McNabb, you can show up to
- 12:55Speaker 1: the show as.
- 12:56Speaker 2: He worked hard to get on this list to you now,
- 13:00Speaker 2: and also he threw up in the Super Bowl.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, uh number three Ben Simmons, Oh yeah, you
- 13:09Speaker 1: know this to be.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Clear, this is not just a sports.
- 13:13Speaker 3: This is a big old, just general life, Ben Simmons.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Because it covers all areas there, yes it does. Uh.
- 13:21Speaker 2: Number four of course, Sammy Hagar ruined ruined v Yeah yeah, Kim, Yeah,

- 13:41Speaker 1: Keith bomb Pey hare and is we used to call
- 13:45Speaker 1: you know, not showing up for the show.

- 13:52Speaker 3: He pomp is close close, yeah exactly and McNab levels.
- 13:59Speaker 2: Yeah.

- 14:21Speaker 2: We don't want to let him ruin it. In fact,
