0:25
Jason Lumer was supposed to be on, but he had to go to
0:27
the DMV today like an appointment. Like that's still a thing, Like what

0:36
Anyway, So I got a double show next week. I got him coming
0:39

0:43
Drew two Chains to San Pietro. Uh, those two guys will be
0:46
on next week. Really not promoting anything. We're just gonna be talking shit.
0:50
Uh. These guys used to have their own podcasts, so they're itching
0:53
to get on mine and uh speu some nonsense for everyone's entertainments. Um,
0:59
so welcome to the show. A few things to announce. I am now
1:03
have a website Www dot Day Drinking with Dog dot com. That's one G
1:07
at the end. I am not Snoop Dogg. I'm not DOUBLEG, just
1:11
one G. It's pretty cool right now. It's kind of in its infancy
1:15
stages. I got a lot of pictures. Everyone that's pretty much been on
1:19
the show that we took pictures is on that website. All of my shows
1:23
automatically download to that website. There is a store on there. Really it's
1:27
just a sweatshirt and a sticker right now. So I'm doing all the back
1:30
end of that stuff in the weeks to come. So there should be a
1:34
lot of other stuff on the shop, and the videos will be downloaded and
1:38
reels and all that kind of fun stuff. So when I have all these
1:42
cool guests coming on, they'll be able to see them and I will be
1:45
able to to download all that good stuff. So Www dot Day Drinking with
1:51
dog dot Com one gh. So last night or this past two nights,
1:57
was All Star Game in the home runder. I'll get to the game first
2:00
and I'll talk about the derby in a second. The game is fine.
2:05
I feel like, you know, I've been watching All Star games my whole
2:07
life. Baseball not the other ship. I don't really watch NBA or football
2:12
sometimes the hockey one, but baseball is really the only one that really translate.
2:15
Well, except for the fact that the pitchers only pitch one inning and
2:19
not everyone plays the whole game, but it's still fun to see all the
2:21
stars, all the guys you like. The Red Sox only had one guy,
2:24
like I can't believe Devers didn't make it. Like he's up there in
2:27
power numbers doing good. His average is down a little bit, but yeah,
2:31
yeah, Pete Alonzo on the NL team, he's bat in two eleven
2:36
so that's whatever it is, where it is. So we only had the
2:38
closer, Kenley Jansen. He came in for one batter, struck him out,
2:43
So that was it for the Red Sox. But they're actually looking pretty
2:46
good after the All Star break. Got an easy schedule, maybe accumulates some
2:49
wins and see what happens. But the game was three two. The guy,
2:53
god Daz, I don't even know what the fuck these people are.
2:55
Sometimes hit a two run homer in the eighth and el's first win in ten
3:00
years, so good luck to their congratulations to them, and that'll, uh,
3:06
you know, kind of boring. Three two. That's kind of how
3:07
these games are. Pitchers only have to pitch one inning, so they usually
3:10
dominate. They don't get worn down. They're all revved up for that one
3:15
inning, so it's not many long balls. There was two last night,
3:19
I think, but that was it. But going into long balls, the
3:23
home run derby, I don't know. I can't get behind it anymore.
3:28
That they they've screwed up the format. You know, Julio Rodriguez had like
3:31
forty two or forty one home runs and like he was out of gas.
3:38
They're pitching from like seven feet away, just rapid fire. You don't get
3:42
to fucking admire the bombs because they're onto the next two already. They should
3:46
go back to the ten out format. Guys can take their time. Yes,
3:50
it gets a little boring sometimes, but when they get in a groove,
3:53
it's so much fun to watch. Burman should still be broadcasting this thing
3:57
with his back, back back. A lot of problems I have with it.
4:01
It's it's still a cool event, but I don't know like it's it's
4:05
I only watch it because it's on. There's nothing else on. We are
4:09
literally in the dog days of summer. Nothing else is on sports wise.
4:14
I'm trying to get into a couple of shows, just haven't gotten that far
4:17
yet. Just I mean, it is what it is, like, it's
4:20
it's cool. I wish I wish the Red Sox player like Devers was in
4:24
it, or anybody from the Red Sox just to give me a little more
4:28
juice. But I don't know. Kind of cool that vlad one so first
4:32
father son duo to both win the home in Derby, which is kind of
4:35
neat, but again I don't know, not a not a fan of the
4:40
format, the three minutes fucking swing everything tries to try to pitch. I
4:45
saw real today that Braden sent me, and it was a guy with like
4:48
four ways to change it, and I pretty much said the first two is,
4:51
you know, go back to go back to the uh the ten out
4:57
format being one of them, and he made a great point instead of having
5:02
I didn't see Alonzo up there, but I saw on Twitter that I guess
5:05
whoever was pitching to him was awful and kind of ruined it for him because
5:10
he's won the event twice, I believe. And they should just have a
5:14
pitching machine. Just make it easy. It pitches every let's say ten seconds.
5:18
Guys aren't running out of gas, and you know, I think it'd
5:24
be a level playing field, which is a great point, and get rid
5:29
of the kids in the outfield, I guess A kid got hit last night,
5:31
like pretty smacked in the face trying to catch a flyball in that fucking
5:35
sun. You saw how bad it was in the in the All Star Game
5:38
yesterday. So get the kids out of there. And uh, you know,
5:42
one guy, the guy in the on the reel said, put the
5:45
Twitter trolls out there. They'd be hilarious. When they don't know anything they
5:47
can get. They're so unathletic and all they do is talk shit, so
5:50
seeing them get hit by some baseballs would be pretty funny. All right,
5:54
So that was the All Star Game. I've read this article last night.
5:58
Now, I'm kind of fascinated with logistics when it comes to sports, and
6:04
you know, you might go to a football game, a basketball game,
6:06
a baseball game, and you're just sitting there and you're having a great time,
6:10
but I'm like kind of fucked up, Like I like to like really
6:14
like kind of know what goes behind everything that made that just that one event
6:18
happen. And there's this interesting article, let me pull it out, an
6:24
interesting article of the Patriots and Robert Kraft bought two i want to say,
6:30
bowing seven seven sevens, like the really big fucking jumbo Jets back in twenty
6:36
seventeen, he paid like two million or three million per Here it is and
6:45
basically what's going on. So I'll read it to you here. Patriots paid
6:48
ten million, ten million for two bowing seven sixty seven three hundred yards from
6:54
American Airlines in twenty seventeen. The plans can fly non stop for twelve hours,
6:58
costing twenty to thirty thousand per hour of flight time. Now, this
7:00
seems like a lot of money, right, but I could actually say the
7:03
team millions in the long run. Here's why they did it. NFL teams
7:06
only play eight or at nine away games each year, compared to forty one
7:10
in the NBA or eighty one in Major League Baseball. Hockey's gout in the
7:13
same as basketball, NFL teams start coordinating hotels, transportation months in advance,
7:18
focusing on everything from a custom ProTeam packed many with a hotel to the security
7:23
guards that protect players and staff at night. It's a process that takes months
7:27
to plan, and each NFL team typically budgets about four million dollars per year
7:30
and travel expenses, but the toughest part is coordinating flights. Here's why NFL
7:35
teams typically travel twenty plus thousand miles a year in a season with one hundred
7:40
and fifty plus people and more than fifteen thousand pounds of equipment. So while
7:43
other sports leagues can use smaller planes because they don't have as many players on
7:46
a team, like a three, twenty seven, thirty sevens and so on,
7:49
NFL teams squire much larger aircraft from commercial airlines, like the seven sixty
7:54
sevens or the seven seventy sevens. But there's one problem. Many airlines don't
7:57
want to work with NFL teams. That's because the most profitable planes hit idle
8:01
for days at a time while NFL teams travel. Here's an example. The
8:05
New Orleans Saints have a game against the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte, North Carolina,
8:09
but New Orleans doesn't have an airline hub, so United United Airplane has
8:13
to fly empty from Houston to New Orleans to pick up the team. The
8:18
plane that flies to Charlotte sits in the ground for thirty three hours or so,
8:20
flies the team back to New Orleans and then proceeds to fly empty to
8:24
New York City for its next flight. United has only paid for the three
8:28
hours of flight time even though the plane was used for forty four hours,
8:31
and it's one of the reasons why many airlines have a either jacked up the
8:35
pricing of the NFL charter flights or be stopped chartering flights altogether. America and
8:39
the Airlines, for instance, has already dropped all chartered teams except the Carolina
8:43
Panthers, Cowboys, and Eagles because those have the big hub airports. Now
8:48
there are other solutions. Some teams have started signing agreements with charter only companies
8:52
like Atlas Air or Miami Air. But another way to avoid this problem is
8:54
owning your own plane, which the Patriots have done and that's why Robert Craft
8:58
paid the ten million dollars twenty seventeen. The jets are thirty years old.
9:01
Now that's nothing in airlines cost twenty thirty per hour, like I said,
9:05
and typically include more than two hundred thousand dollars in annual storage fees. But
9:09
the interior here's the key. The interior is customized with two two two business
9:13
class seating, including extra legroom, Wi Fi HD screens for inflight entertainment,
9:16
and a custom food menu with burgers blah blah blah blah. This gives new
9:20
new Patriots ultimate flexibility, and other teams are catching on to The Arizona Cardinals
9:24
bought a seven seventy seven just one though, that seats two hundred and eighty
9:28
eight people, with twenty eight first class pods including lie down seats and forty
9:31
eight business class seats. The logistics behind the NFL are getting more complex by
9:37
the day. Some teams like the Patriot Cardinals are getting ahead of the game.
9:39
But now with the NFL franchise is valued over four billion, four point
9:43
five billion dollars, it's not that big of an expense. Makes makes sense.
9:50
This article want to give credit was from Joe Pompliano at Joe Popadan on
9:56
Twitter. Basically, what I'm getting at is that's football, Like that's almost
10:01
like the easy sport if you think about it, with just the eight or
10:05
nine flights. Yes, there's a lot of people on these flights. There
10:09
are a lot of things that going into booking the hotels for the teams and
10:11
the families and you know, the staff members and all that stuff. But
10:16
that's why they're months in advance. Fascinates me more is in the MLB and
10:22
the NBA and the NHL, because one obviously more games. Yes, there
10:26
are less people, but travel the arenas are so basically every football team pretty
10:33
much owns their arena and then they can book They know the schedule pretty much
10:39
in advance before we do, so they can book the concerts, the summer
10:41
series, the Taylor Swifts, all that stuff, and not conflict. Playoff
10:46
games are in the winner, so the outdoor stadiums really don't have to worry
10:50
about any kind of concert problems. It's just pretty much football in the Northeast
10:56
and the North because you know it's the weather. But now you get into
11:01
basketball baseball basketball, for instance, because they play the playoffs in April,
11:07
May and June, and there's no rhyme or reason to playoffs. Like you
11:13
could either make it, you can't. You could lose in the first round
11:15
the playing tournament. You could make it to the finals like Miami. Miami
11:18
was one game away from not even making the playoffs, and they made it
11:20
to the game five of the finals. So they could have booked a Taylor
11:26
Swift concert, Blink one eighty two concert, whatever you want to call it,
11:31
like say in May, and now they have to work around that concert
11:35
because they don't want to move it and go to You know, now,
11:37
this is why a lot of these NBA and NHL series get pushed so long.
11:43
It takes two and over two months to play him, is because sometimes
11:46
there's three days off in between because these arenas have shit booked. But I
11:52
don't know, I'm just dumb with shit like that. I like, i'd
11:54
like to see, like just how it all works, and it's got to
11:58
be. It's gotta be a stressful job being a team travel agent or logistics
12:03
person for travel for these major teams, because you know, if you fuck
12:07
up, you're probably probably losing your job. This just crossed the board today.
12:15
Glad I use private tax guys. Thank you Dave Gibbs and John Gibbs
12:20
for doing my taxes this year, because it just came out that H and
12:26
R Block Tax Act and tax Slayer have shared over the last two years extraordinarily
12:33
sensitive data to who other than Meta. Of course, Facebook at the at
12:39
the forefront of stealing all of our information as much as they can, as
12:46
fast as they can, and they seem to have no backlash to any of
12:50
this ship that goes on. So I recommend supporting your local tax guy.
12:58
Go to him, maybe he'll cut you a break for sue. A lot
13:01
of these guys don't really have the time to gobble up a bunch of stuff
13:05
because you know, they gotta do their friends and family and stuff like that
13:07
first. But this is crazy, and like this coincides right when Threads come
13:13
out. So Threads is Threads is the Twitter of Facebook. Zuckerberg just launched
13:18
it like two weeks ago already, Like I could be wrong here, thirty
13:22
million people signed up. What it is is I forget the term, but
13:28
basically, so you sign up for Threads and let's say you don't like it,
13:33
you want to cancel Threads for whatever reason, you have to now cancel
13:39
your Instagram account. And I believe your Facebook. I'm not sure about Facebook,
13:45
but I know you have to cancer your Instagram account. It's not a
13:46
bait and switch, but it's something along those lines. And this is typical
13:54
liberal media, liberal all this bullshit. They want your information, They want
14:00
you to feel compelled to keep whatever you might have downloaded. They're coming after
14:07
you. And if you don't see it, like I won't never down you
14:11
know. I actually had a conversation with my friend Chris Mcurio, and he
14:13
has his own podcast to drive home, and you know, we share content
14:18
to social media to try to promote our own shows. So I asked him,
14:22
are you going to do Threads? And he's like, fuck no,
14:26
And I'm like, that's how I felt it first, before I kind of
14:30
knew everything else. And I'm like, well, wait a second. You
14:31
know, like it's so easy for me to go on Instagram post my content.
14:35
It gets shipped right over to Facebook. It's easy, peasy, boom
14:39
boom, takes me five minutes. Now Twitter, I don't use as much,
14:43
but if I downloaded Threads then it would go there. Maybe it creates
14:46
some more followers there. But then I read about this, so I'm like,
14:50
no, I'm good. I hate the fact that I have to use
14:54
Instagram and Facebook, but I do, and it is the way of the
14:58
world. They operate pretty seamlessly. But I know they're stealing everything. We're
15:03
fucking they're they're just spying on us. All. It is what it is.
15:05
I mean, not that I'm out there to get whatever, but basically,
15:11
threads sign up at your own risk. I only use Twitter really to
15:15
follow journalists, sports journalists, some political stuff. That's about it. Other
15:22
than that, it's just a cesspool of crap and mean people and you know
15:28
whatever. But yeah, so no threads for me. I advise the same.
15:33
So Joe Rogan and ice Cube, we're having a little conversation on his
15:37
lovely podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, and bud Light came up, So
15:43
I guess we'll keep continuing this uh saga a bud Light And I saw commercial
15:48
yesterday during the All Star Game and it was a bud Wi and Heiser Busch
15:54
commercial promoting kind of everything bud Wise or bud Light, some of their other
16:00
products, and it was like a grassroots campaign. It started like, you
16:06
know, Budweiser starts from the water here, and the guys working the water
16:11
ship it there and we're the ones that bottle it. And then we're the
16:15
ones that label it, We're the ones that pack it, We're the ones
16:17
that put it on the truck, we're the truck drivers, so on so
16:19
forth. It's just like this. They are just trying so fucking hard to
16:25
win back literally an audience you can't lose. You cannot lose that audience.
16:32
And is I don't know, controversial as that may be. You know,
16:37
living in America where everyone's free to say whatever they want for the most part,
16:41
like you didn't have to ruffle those feathers. And this Dylan mulvaney shit
16:47
is just like so basically what ice Cube and Joe Rogan said is, you
16:49
know, we're sick of this ship and I am too, Like you know,
16:53
June was, you know, the Alphabet month, and now they're going
16:59
to have an Alphabet Street month in October. And again, I don't flop
17:03
my heterosexuality, do I. I don't. I don't think so. I
17:07
mean maybe because I'm dressed in shorts in a baseball hat and or whatever.
17:11
But you know, and the fact that I'm talking about this right now and
17:17
in my head I have to watch what I say is the most fucked up
17:19
part of it all. It really is. You know, I'm trying to
17:23
get sponsors on the show, and I'm like, do I have to curb
17:29
my content? Like really, like I don't fucking come my hair in spait,
17:33
spew hatred. It's just common sense to me. Maybe I maybe I'm
17:37
wrong. I mean, I guess I guess I'm wrong. I don't.
17:38
I don't know, but I guess it's just it is what it is.
17:45
I mean, but they're allowed to throw it down in your throat, like
17:48
get ready. Get Ready. In about a week when the Women's World Cup
17:55
starts, just watch Meghan Rappano. It's it's her swan song, and then
18:02
she's going to be a political activist for the rest of her life and we're
18:04
going to see her purple fucking hair on TV fucking constantly. Just watch watch
18:11
the ads, watch the messages they send during this. So she is attacking
18:18
Meghan Rappano, is attacking Dave Chappelle, Sage Steel, another woman from ES.
18:26
She's not Susie Colver. I can remember the other one, because they
18:30
are sticking up for women's rights in women's sports. But Megan says she would
18:37
love to play with a trans woman on the soccer field, And that is
18:41
bullshit because I've said this before in the show. Megan has already made her
18:45
money, she's already has her fame. Now she wants something to stick fucking
18:49
her legacy on, and that's going to be playing with trans men or women.
18:55
Well, I don't even know. Whatever. It is a man that
18:57
became a woman and now is fucking running apps. It's in the soccer field
19:00
around people. This is so common sensical to me why this shouldn't happen,
19:08
and it just it just irks me, Like why why why is this even
19:11
a fucking argument? You know, like that like Bill Bird jokes about,
19:17
you know, Lebron James goes to the w NBA and dominates, scores three
19:19
hundred points a game, Like there's a reason why we classify men's and women's
19:23
sports. We separate the two everything golf, even billiards for whatever reason.
19:30
But like there's all these divisions he has. They play mixed doubles and stuff.
19:33
But but there's one man and one woman on each team. So just
19:37
get ready, that's all I'm saying. Oh it's gonna be. I mean,
19:41
I love the United States, but boy, they are trying very hard
19:45
to make me root against them. And they're not all that bad. Like
19:48
she's at the forefront, but they know like she's she's the probably the captain.
19:55
I don't know if she's the captain, Alex Morgan, maybe the captain,
19:56
but you know she's she the head, she's the old old statesman of
20:02
the team. So all the young people are gonna have to look up to
20:04
her or they'll be shunned. And I hope there's a lot of journalists out
20:10
there that will ask people other than Megan Rappano what they feel about this issue
20:15
and will they have the balls? I guess that's pun intended to say something
20:22
we'll see. And by the way, the bud light sales at stone Bridge
20:26
are fucking awful. We're doing about three cases a week. We used to
20:32
do one hundred and fifty a week. I mean, granted that was before
20:33
all the RTDs came out like High Noons and White Claws, but let's say
20:37
we do a good twenty five to thirty a week. Pretty nutty, Pretty
20:41
nutty? What's going on out there? They were down twenty six percent on
20:45
top of the twenty five percent they've been down since April first, since this
20:49
April Fool's joke backfired on them, and over the July fourth weekend down another
20:56
twenty six percent. So and that new addin't gonna help. That's just like,
21:00
please, fucking unreal. All right, we're gonna finish on this.
21:07
This is another quickie today. I like the little quick ones. In and
21:11
out get the rest of my day, going back to my UFOs. Actually,
21:17
if you can see my table here, I got all sorts of UFO
21:18
stickers on here. One's a beer one. But there's a podcast called Event
21:25
Horizon. I've listened to it a couple of times, and not like a
21:27
devout listener or anything, but I've listened to some clips of it. And
21:32
Tim Burchett, he is a Republican congressman in Tennessee, has claimed he's seen
21:38
the classified documents from the CIA, seeing some of them and basically is saying
21:48
that the world is not ready. And by world, I mean governments are
21:55
not ready for the technology that these aliens hold and they have discovered. And
22:03
that's quite frightening. Again, you have to, let, you know,
22:07
take movies out of your head, like don't think of Independence Day or you
22:11
know, war the worlds and shit like that, Like just think of,
22:15
you know what, are they just here chilling? Have they been here for
22:21
a billion years hiding out in the ocean. That's kind of one of my
22:25
theories. Are they here for world domination? They here to annihilate us?
22:30
Are they here for our resources? Or they just kind of studying how fucked
22:37
up this world is and fucking war happens every six seconds and no one can
22:41
get along, and power and greed and money control of what goes on in
22:47
this world. But uh, I don't know. I think I think they're
22:52
just here. I mean, I think they would have done something already,
22:56
you know, or they're or they're or they're here to protect us from new
23:00
from ourselves from nuclear war because that will kill all the resources on the playing
23:03
it. But the evidence is so close to coming out, and maybe it
23:11
should stay classified for a little while longer until they can figure out the technology
23:18
and maybe why they're here. But they're here, come on, you know
23:22
it. I love it? All right, guys, that's it for a
23:26
nice Wednesday. I'll be golfing tomorrow with Red, Zach and Campy for Sean
23:30
Healey's Where's My Guy, He's down there Sean Heally's tournament. Our buddy passed
23:37
away almost almost two years ago, and this is there'll be the second annual
23:41
tournament that Todd, his brother is running. Great cause money goes to great
23:47
charities and it's up in Lineman Orchards this year, which is a great spot
23:51
for tournaments. A little bit of a drive, but good course, good
23:55
lay. I hope he thoughts from rain drops tomorrow, so I'll be doing
23:57
that and next week like I said, Luomer and two chains on, that'll
24:02
be an interesting conversation. I know we'll bring up a lot of topics I
24:04
just talked about and get their opinions and their thoughts on all of that.
24:08
Again. My website www dot day Drinking with Dog dot com. This video
24:15
these are now all recorded. They will be on YouTube channel. It's uh,
24:19
I means Day Drinking with Dogs again. I'm still in phase one of
24:25
you know, ten phases of trying to figure all this shit out. But
24:27
you can find the videos on YouTube at Daydrinking with Dog I believe, if
24:30
not Jeremy Wells something something something something, I'll get all that clarified this week.
24:37
And again, you ever want to come on the show. I got
24:41
some great guests coming up. I got some Tony ge running for mayor of
24:47
Milford coming up, probably in like a month closer to the election time,
24:51
running for Republican mayor on crime and by the way, that is at the
24:53
forefront right now of what I would hope someone run on. Because I'll leave
24:59
you on this in my parking lot. I live in New Haven, av
25:03
Colonial manner. Come say hi, I have a beer. I was leaving
25:07
for a tournament on Monday morning and there was a I wouldn't say brand new,
25:11
but probably a twenty twenty one Honda Accord in a spot with no tires
25:19
on it and milk crates underneath. So I guess we have surveillance cameras there
25:25
now. And they looked, and a black van pulled up at like four
25:26
in the morning, saw Monday morning in the rain, got out, smashed
25:33
the window, took the lug nut locks out of the glove compartment, unlocked
25:38
all four tires, drilled them off through them in the van, and we're
25:41
gone in like five fucking minutes. Another person has no tires in a smash
25:45
window. So, guys, if you live in complexes like I do,
25:52
move your lug nut locks inside, I guess, And I mean, how
25:56
often do you really need them? But I guess you kind of do need
25:57
them if something happens on the highway, or hide him in a different spot.
26:03
I don't know. Just be diligent, h be proactive. Obviously.
26:08
I always have your like I I'm lucky you have a Kia. That's pretty
26:12
cool. It has all the you know, if my car gets touched,
26:15
I get a notification on my phone pretty much. If he gets stolen and
26:18
get I get a notification. Anything, you know, window breaks, I
26:22
get a notification. So I could pretty much be on top of it,
26:25
but um I don't know. It's getting shitty out there and it sucks.
26:30
But you know, like I said, stay diligent, stay safe, guys.
26:33
I'll talk to you next week. Day Drinking a dog Www dot day
