  Speaker 2: World Series and he's taking some credit for it. Also,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: is CC Sabbathia worthy of having his number retired with

  Speaker 2: pepp in my step here. Everyone on the show's excited.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Here we are. It's like a rebirth here.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Were reminded there are more than seven people that actually
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: enjoy the show that call into the show. We get
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: the same band. We like our regulars. They're friends of ours,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: we know them. It's like a group chat every night
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: on the show.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: But every once in a while.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: We like to welcome in people that are intimidated by
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: the regulars, and we call it newby Night. So many
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: people under the spell of hollering James and all the
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: other characters that call the show, and so they don't
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: get an opportunity to call in, and so this is
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: your night to do it. And we've taken a lot
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: of calls, which is great. You know, you guys, the regulars.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: If we don't get them ten minutes of airtime, they
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: file a complaint with HR. It's been a pleasure. It's
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: been an absolute bleeping pleasure. You got to talk for
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: a couple of mens. We move on zip right through it.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: It's good job by you. But I'll lead this out
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: and we will tell you how to call in and
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: all that coming up in a couple and it's trying
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: to find the next generation of great overnight callers overnight
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: talk radio. Sports talk radio's about the goofy caller. So
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: our lead this hour, we go to the Cactus League.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: That's our lead this hour. What a couple of months
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: it's been for the Angels. So you got Artie Marino,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: the owner of the Angels, who said that the team's
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: fans are mostly moms that don't care about winning. He
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: also announced that none of the games will be on
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: television in the LA market for the Angels on the Angels.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Broadcast, because they're too cheap to do that. And I
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: don't blame him.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: You don't really want to show the bunch of reclamation
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: projects that you're trotting out on the field.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Go Team go, all right, Go Team go.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Anyway, one of those one of those reclamation projects trying
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: to catch lightning in a bottle has made headlines, has
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: made headlines here and just were on the same page.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: If you didn't see this, perhaps not.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: I don't think there's many people paying attention to the
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Angels other than fird Dog and our buddy, our other
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: buddies in Fullerton.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: So Alex Manoah, I don't know if you know who
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: that is. He was a big deal a couple of
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: years ago.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: He's one of those demptionen story candidates at the Big
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: A this year and he's making some noise. So before
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: we tell you what he's done, now, let's go back
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: a couple of years. So Manoah would be considered a
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: fat athlete. He's a chubby one and so pretty good
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: pitcher starting pitcher. Was a total stud for a team
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: called the Blue Jays. He was an all star. He
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: finished I believe, in the top five in the Cy
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Young voting and this was.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I want to say, twenty twenty three.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: And then it turns out the glass slipper turned back
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: into a crappy shoe and he couldn't get anyone out
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: and he's sucked at a time he cannot suck. He
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: couldn't carry his own water. And so Manoa was let
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: go and has been in the minor leagues mostly, and
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: they claimed he was hurt because nobody can just all
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: of a sudden be bad. And now he's working for
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: peanuts with the Angels. Well, Manoa did an interview this
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: week and he he awoke in the big mouth of Canada.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Manoa, who did not pitch in the major leagues in
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Five, and he had the the uh.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's words I can come up with.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: But anyway, he said, Mana that he takes credit even
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: though he didn't pitch in the major leagues.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: He takes credit for the Blue Jays. He says, I
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: was a very big piece of the Blue Jays getting
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the World Series last season, and everyone had the same
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: reaction like huh, like what are you doing?
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: discuss the question. The question is where do you stand
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: on former Toronto pitcher, current Angels pitcher Alex Manoa taking
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: credit for the Blue Jays World Series appearance. Again his words,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: he was, he said, very big piece of the Blue
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Jays getting the World Series last year, even though he
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: didn't pitch in the major leagues. So I've got poster board,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Amazon boxes and toga and we will combine all of
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: these things together and we are going to make some.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Thick skin, which is important.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: So my first thought on this is, man that is
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: some strong poutee without gravy.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, wow, that's rich. So what is this about
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: if you if you didn't pitch for the team.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Now, the argument as well, he was part of that
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: generation of Blue Jay players that came up through the
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: minor leagues and got to the major leagues, and that
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: was the group that was the catalyst for Toronto to
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: get to the World Series. But other than that, like,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: did he provide maple scented leadership, did he send positive
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: text messages, got team go visible, majestic, roaming the clubhouse
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: like a spirit moose for the Blue Jays? Did he
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: dress up in a moose costume and wander around? So
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: my theory on this is that the reason Alex Manoa,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: the pitcher, said that he was a very big piece
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: for the Blue Jets getting the World Series even though
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: he didn't pitch in the major leagues last year is
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: it reminds me of when I was in school and
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: they would have a group project. So think of it
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: like this, Toronto getting to the World Series and blowing
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: it in Game seven was a group project. Was a
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: group project, and Alex Manoah was the kid who didn't
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: show up the school got kicked out of the school. However,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: still wants his name in sparkling writing on the poster board,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Delusions of adequacy and sometimes everyone saw confidence speaks louder
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: than the stats. Very confident man, very confident man. If
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: not pitching right, pitching is supposed to the key. But
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: if you don't pitch, what exactly are you doing by
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: not pitching? Manoa and some guy named Jack from York
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: pitched the same amount of innings for the Blue Jays,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Zero gooseg give the man a bagel by staying away.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: By staying away, he actually helped. Addition, by subtraction, if
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Manoa had pitched, they would have been out the Blue
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Jays rather than playing in the World Series. They would
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: have been golfing in Saskatoon instead of playing the Dodgers.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: So I say, I think it's a good idea. Build
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: the man a statue.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Alex Meno should get a statue just for giggles in
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Toronto and the invisible Man of Ontario, and just make
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: sure that you can't see it because it's an invisible man.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: And that's it. Now.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: I am pulling for this guy to come back and
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: have a big year. I hope he pitches well for
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: the Angels. We need more big mouth baseball players. As
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: a talk show host, it is my duty to occasionally
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: talk about baseball, and I feel like I'm often held
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: hostage because there's very few people in sports more boring
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: than baseball players. There is about as uninteresting as you
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: possibly be, and you're jumping through hoops here trying to
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: come up with things to talk about in baseball, the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: stories around the game. Now we got a couple of
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: big mouths. You got Jazz Chisholm with the Yankees. Who's
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: good for talk radio. That's one example. Pete Crow Armstrong
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: and Chicago's been pretty good criping with the Dodger fans.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: We talked about him earlier. And now you've got Alex Manoa.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: The numbers are not good, and let's see if he
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: can come back now speaking numbers. Smooth transition as we
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: do the side step go to the Bronx where see
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Ce Sabbathia, the CC music Machine.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: C C.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Sabbathia say, washed up former Major League baseball player, his number.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Fifty two gonna be retired.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, he's gonna rule the roost at Yankee Stadium.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: C C.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Sabbathia is number fifty two will be retired in September
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: by the New York Yankees, and.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: They will give him a plaque in Monument Park.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: The mausoleum out in the outfield there at Yankee Stadium
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: before a day, I think they're playing the.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Oriols that day. I think they're playing the words all right.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Question though, no matter who cares, who cares to the
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: playing the question, is CC Sabbathia worthy of a number
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: retirement with the New York Yankees?
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: So this smells fishy to me.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: It does like he's a monument park guy, not a
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: number retirement guy.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: And I understand why the Yankees are doing it.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: They have a fetish. The New York Yankees have a fetish.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: It's a numerical fetish. You know how many numbers they've
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: retired twenty three numbers They've retired twenty and this is
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: gonna be number twenty four.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: The Cardinals are the next closest major League team at thirteen.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: The Yankees are lapping the field with eighty four percent
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: more retired numbers than the next closest team after Sabbathia's
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: numbers added to the retired numbers, I think they retire
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: numbers like people in the suburbs collect those Amazon boxes
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: and try to get them in their house before the
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: porch pirates come out there and take them They're gonna
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: have guys wearing fractions in my lifetime, assuming I don't
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: check out early, and in your lifetime, right gonna be
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: wearing fractions batting six for the New York Yankees, number
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: three point seven, number three point seven. It's absurd. Sabbathia
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: was good. I'm not here to trash Sabbathi.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: He was good. I'd put him in Monument Park.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: He's not immortal, and I wouldn't retire anyone's number. I
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: believe in the Monument Park, the Ring of Honor. I
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: think that's the way to go. The number retirement thing
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: should be rare and appropriate. The Yankees make it commonplace,
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: and Sabbathia is especially for a team like the Yankees.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: One ring and that was a nine. That's it. That's
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: the list. One ring.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: This isn't Mariano Rivera, it's not Whitey Ford, it's not
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: even that cheater Andy Pettit. The Yankees are lowering standards.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Even Jill in Minnesota, the big Yankee fan, would agree
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: with me.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: And I don't know about our buddy from Long Island,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: but that's where this is, right.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Legend do you think of of the legends of the
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Yankees who are not in number retirement. Land Lefty Gomez,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: old time baseball, Red Roughing, Red Roughing. It sounds like
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: a kid's toy gun a Red Roffing, a legend for
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: the number not retired. Goose Gossage another legend number not retired.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: All of them, those guy, Lefty Gomez, Red Roffing, and
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Goose Gostich are in the Hall of Fame and they're
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: in Monument Park.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: They did not get their number retired. Their numbers are
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: not retired.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: So why did Sabbathia get his number retired? He did
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: not anchor a single He was not a foundational piece
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: of a single part of Yankee history, meaning that he
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: was on a World Series team, but he was not
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: the number one or two or three guy on that
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: World Series team.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: However, again, the Yankees cannot help themselves, cannot do it.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: They just can't. They need therapy, They need a miniature horse,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: a support horse. It's what they do. It's this is
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: who they are. They can't stop it. They can't.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: They have no self control when it comes to retiring numbers. C. C.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Sabbathia and I'm not gonna even bring up the whole stuff.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: I've gotten messages from Yankee fans, you're gonna kill someb
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: I'm not killing Sabbathia.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I just don't put him in monument park. I wouldn't
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: put him in the Number retirement department.
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: And all that mean, if you want to bring up
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: the other scandals around Sabbathia, you're more than welcome to
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: do that.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Final thought to Pittsburgh spring training. There's one person to
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: talk about with the Pirates. His name is Paul Skeens,
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: the pride of Eltoral High School in southern California, the
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: National League cy Young Award winner.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Paul Skeins, Who's fired up? Baby, he is fired up.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: He got all this motivation, pulling out all the stops,
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: trying to lead the World Baseball Classic Team USA, Team USA,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: the USA squad, and he's fired up. He's using the
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: motivation from the Winter Olympics, the success of Team USA
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: and said winning the gold is the biggest thing the
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Pirates. Ace told they gaggle of reporters, Yeah, men's hockey,
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: women's hockey, all the other.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Goals that we won in the Olympics. Paul Skeen said,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: we're America.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: We've got to assert our dominance over everybody else. He said,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: that's what we do. It's gonna be fun. The USA wins,
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: it's what we do. Gotta keep it going close quote
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: all right, So the question on this one, are you
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: feeling the Paul Skins tie in as he is tying
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: in the Olympic glory in Italy and the upcoming World
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Baseball Classics?
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: I think it starts next week. I think the World
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Baseball Classic starts next week. All right, So listen. I
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: love Patriots is a right. I'll wrap myself in the
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: flag with you know, as much as anybody.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: And I adore the red, white and blue. I have
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: plenty of red, white and blue bravado. Nevertheless, I gotta
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: keep it real here and the Olympics side by side,
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: if you do the blind taste tests, the PEPSI challenge.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: The Olympics are the grand Colisseum of global competition. Now,
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: there are a lot of issues with the IOC, and
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of scumbags who are involved in the Olympics.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: But the Olympic Games are carved in marble. The World
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Baseball Classic carved in marketing meetings, think tanks, that's what
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: it's carved. It is a made for television tournament, trying
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: to wear the toga of some kind of timeless tradition.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Now, I admit fully my.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Problem is I've been doing this for so long that
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: I was here when they came up with the World
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Baseball Classic.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: And I know why Baseball came up.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: With the World Baseball Classic, good old Bud Selic, the
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: commissioner at the time. They used Car Salesman and his
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: little underling who's gone on and become a monster himself.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: And Rob Manford.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: But you give birth to it in six And the reason,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: the only reason there's the World Baseball Classic is because
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Baseball was excommunicated from the Olympic ballroom. They were banished,
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: they were blacklisted, and this was very offensive these suits
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: at Major League Baseball. Bud Seilic and his little minions
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: cooked up the WBC the World Baseball Classic as a
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: star spangled substitute, a patriotic pageant to try to capture
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: the afterglow of the Olympics.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I tried to piggyback.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: After the off the Olympics and get some people that
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: are maybe drinking too much or smoking so something.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: And they're like, hey, it's they're wearing.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Country hats and country jerseys, and so we should we
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: should support that. And yeah, so let's call it what
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: it's flag waving, marketing.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Magnificence is what it is. And so it's not it
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: isn't destiny. It's design.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: It's brandings raped in red, white and blue bunting and
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: all that. Now, does Team USA want to win? Of
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: course they want. Do we want them to win?
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: Sure?
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Sure, you know, go out there and dominate. You know,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: that's that we'd like to think. That's our default setting.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: So do it. But do not confuse, whether you're Paul
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Schemes or Joe Blow, do not confuse a corporate carnival
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: with the crown jewel of what is international competition. One
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: is a spectacle and all that. The other is supposedly sacred.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: And it doesn't matter how much chest thumping you do,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: it doesn't doesn't change.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: That doesn't change that.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: I do know the players generally like it because they
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: hate spring training, which always blows me away that the
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: baseball players don't like spring training, because when I covered
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: baseball back.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: In the day, nobody had it better than the baseball players.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: They show up early, which was not great.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Baseball people are night people because they play games at night,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: but they show up early, get their work in before
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: the game, play one or two innings in the game
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: if that, and they'd be on the golf course by
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: one point thirty or two o'clock, depending on what time
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: the game.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Started, and that's that, and you know that was their day.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: So they get up early, have breakfast, work out a
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: little bit, take batting practice, lift some weights if you're
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: into that kind of thing, and then play an inning
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: or two, get taken out of the game for some guy.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: With number ninety nine or number one.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Hundred and sixty three on their jersey, and then that's it.

  Speaker 1: You defended your guy, Todd. You defended your guy. Thank you,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: all right, buddy, thank you.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: This Todd is the Bane Mallor Show. We're gonna have
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: an extended nancey remix. I didn't want to for ask man,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: but I wanted to pay this off.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: I tease it earlier. So you remember a couple of
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: years ago, there's a.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: Team called the Oakland Athletics, pretty popular team in a
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: loyal fan base, and then this evil owner decided he
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: was going to move the team to Las Vegas, but
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: they don't have a stadium, so he decided to stop over.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: Because of the TV deal, he had to stay in California,
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: so he went to Sacramento. And anyway, the A's had
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: a broadcaster named Glenn Kiper. They're playing a game in
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Kansas City, and there was an A's Royals game and
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: there were roughly seventeen people watching the game. But in
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: that game, Glenn Kuiper said some words that would get
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: him taken off of Major League Baseball broadcast and banished.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: The longtime A's broadcaster Glenn Kuiper was he was talking
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: about the trip to the Negro Museum in Kansas City,
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: which a famous landmark there in Kansas City, celebrating the
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: legends of the Negro leagues, and he said, I think
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: you can figure out if you don't don't remember what
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: he said, I think you can figure out what was
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: said right. What was probably said that got him given
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: the boot. But he's now apparently coming back. He will
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: make his first appearance on an MLB broadcast after being
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: fired for that incident a couple of years back, the
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: Giants exhibition game against Team USA in Scottsdale, and that'll
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: be coming up next week and he will be doing
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: some radio work. So they also claim that there is
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: a chance that he will end up doing more more
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: games on the radios. The Giants rotate broadcasters and all that,
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: so he will be back on a broadcast for Major
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: League Baseball radio radio.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: But there you go. It's a very popular as broadcaster,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: relatively sure.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: I know Tom Brenneman who also had some things happened
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: there that got him in a whole lot of trouble.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Was that Where was it was that in Kansas City too?
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: Where was that? It was a Reds game? I don't
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: know who they were playing.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: But anyway, he's doing some radio stuff and some like
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: college football play by play. So some of these guys
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: are back. All right, we got anyway, there you are,
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: Glenn Kiper, You're gonna do some Giants games this year,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: and we'll see it's gonna be tremendous backlashing all who knows.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: It'll be people protesting, I'm sure because people protest everything.
