  Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Rado, Oh.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: What's going on. I hope you're enjoying your late night,
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: early morning festivities. Hope all is fantastic. So, uh, it's
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: getting worse, but it's not bad enough in my opinion yet.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: So the gift that keeps on giving is this Mike
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Vrabel Diana Russini situation. It seems like, maybe not daily,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: but close to it, there's something new where Oh well, dude,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: you think that's bad. Get this in twenty twenty one
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: insert the blank. You know, it's just like, oh my gosh.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: So the latest thing is Diana Russini was pregnant at
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: the time and she was hanging out with Patriots head coach, well, now,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, Right, that's right, that's right.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: It's hold on, you know, just to just find a
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: nice resting spot, you know, a comfortable chair, make sure
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: prepared for this. So they were hanging out together. They're
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: going a little boating, rented a private boat and they
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: were just you know, hanging out. Now this is two
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: months before Diana Russini gave birth to her first son.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: It's they're hanging out. So like this six year affair
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: or thereabouts, like we're in full of fair mode while
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Russini is fully pregnant, like we're getting near the do
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: date pregnant, you know what I'm saying. And they're doing
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: a little boating excursion and and so you know how
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: this goes, right, It's it's videos, it's pictures. It's oh
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: they only post for one picture and Mike Vrabel asked
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: that nobody posts it. And we've got their documentary. There
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: have to sign this and sign that to rent this boat,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: and YadA YadA, b bab bah. It's what it boils
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: down to. Okay, there are going to be most likely
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: more layers that are uncovered in the weeks and months
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: to follow and all of that stuff. But as it
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: is right now, for all the speculation about is Mike
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Frable going to lose his job? Is Mike Frabel going
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: to be coaching in week one? I keep hearing that,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: and it's like, yes, he's going to be coaching in
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: week one. Now, this isn't what I'm rooting for. I
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: you know, it's I'm just picturing me as the weather man.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I'm not rooting for a tornado to hit the town.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: But if I'm like, all right, a tornado is going
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: to hit the town. I'm just telling you what is
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: most likely going to happen. I'm reading the tea leaves
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: all the information that I have. He's going to be
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: coaching in week one. Okay, my guy, Patty sweek He
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: hit me, you know a few few minutes ago off
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: air and he was like, yeah, let me try to
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: do my Patty impression. No, I don't know, man, this
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: is just off the cuff. Okay, this could be a
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: rough trial. Here. Here's here's my Patty impression.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I don't know, man.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Like the more the more that we get to the
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I don't you know, I don't know, because you gotta think.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: You gotta think about, you know, the team and then
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: delay the boat.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: That not good? Not good?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: You know what do you think I was?
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: That was that?
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: That's pretty good? You got the mannerisms? Sound like that?
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: I mean like, yeah, you gotta think, oh my god.
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah it's okay for yeah.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: In personate, well I get the like a little quote
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: like I'll get like the AO or like you know,
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: like a one full on sentences.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: That's the first for me. I like it good, very nice. Yeah,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: well pay dude, we'd have to work. Listen. Little known
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: fact about Patty. He's created impressions.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: He can do some.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Really, He's got a great Rob Parker impression.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: What do you mean?
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: He's got a great Godfather impression, very well done. He
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: has the worst Colin Coward impression anybody has ever done.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I don't understand now how that works out. You're really
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: good at other stuff, but not that one.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: So so, Brian, no sare. My name is Colin crow
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: I can't even hold that. That's this cowhard.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: It sounds like Rush Limbaugh something like this doesn't sound
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: like Cowherd at all.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: You do good, Vito Corleone, like you said, like.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Like come on the demo, that is what him. We'll
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: make him an off the kill field something like, you
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: know what you mean, Mark, That's it's okay, it's all right.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: It was rushed. You were rushed a little bit. You
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: gotta be a little bit more deliberate. But you know
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: what I heard in my head? What have you seen
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: the Zutopia movie? Yeah, you're like the little mouse voice
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: of the little mouse or the rat or whatever.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: I mean.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: I do have a higher octave like for a voice,
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: so I get that there.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, oh dude.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: It's it's exactly what that character in the movie is.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: Honestly, I'll take that. That's still pretty close. That's a
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: pretty close caricatcher of of that.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: It's not bad. But how we got onto this whole
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: thing is Patty was telling me. He's like, I'll try
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: to do it again. You know, I don't know, man,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Like we're getting closer to the season, and you know,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: the love boat, the boat, it's that's you know, I
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: I don't And then the team, you.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Know, the what if? What if? What if?
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: What if the players aren't on board?
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: And then and then what if? More what if he's
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the father? What what? What if?
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: You know, he's doing the whole thing. And I'm just like, look, man,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: he's gonna be the head coach. This is to me,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: this is simple math. Okay, I know, I know, and
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I'll be trying to be as fair about this as possible.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I know that Mike Rabel is the leader of a team,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: he's the leader of men.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: And he's acting like a complete jackass.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Like beyond that, it's.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Crazy too, because if you think about this, Mike Vrabel.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: One of the coolest things about Rabel, I thought at
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: the time that in the sense all this other stuff
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: has come out, it's not as cool anymore. But one
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: of the coolest things about Rabel when he took over
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: as the head coach of the Patriots, he told his
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: team he was like, you will have respect for everybody
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: in this building. I don't care who it is. It's
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the dude sweeping up when we're about to leave, it's whoever, it's, uh,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: you know, the dude washing uniforms.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: You will have respect for everybody in this building when
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: you enter our Patriots headquarters, that sort of thing. And
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: so if you're a player, you have to be thinking
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: about that differently now where it's like, wow, man, coach
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: was telling us to have respect, which is great, we
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: should do that. And he doesn't even have respect for
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: anybody in his own home. That's pretty wild. And I'm
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: sure that reality has hit Rabel pretty hard. And this
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: isn't like, oh, poor of Rabel. That's not what I'm saying.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: I'm just, you know, like, I was thinking about this too,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: and we'll get back to Rabel will be the head
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: coach in week one, But I was just thinking about
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: I haven't cheated in my life I'm just Look, man,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: I'm a loyal guy. When it comes to who I'm dating.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do that. It just I I'm one
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: of those people that even if I got away with it,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: there's no getting away with it, you know what I mean.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Like you're doing something wrong to someone you really care about,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: that that should hurt you, even if they don't know
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: about it, that should hurt you. And the way I
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: think about Rabel and the way I've been cheated on,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: and so I was thinking about this with this Rabel situation,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: and you know, any relationship I've been in and when
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: I've been cheated on, and how I think of it
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: is like this. I think that when you're cheating, I
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: think you just go to a different world. I think
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: you just go to the fun world and you're not
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: living in the real world anymore.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Just hear me out.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: This might sound very stupid at first, It might sound
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: stupid throughout the whole explanation. I don't know, when I'm
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: done with it, you might be like, that was the
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: dumbest thing I've ever heard.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: But give me a chance.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: I think you'll leave the real world and you just
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: go to the fun world and it's like.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, hey we're renting boats.
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: Hey she's pregnant, but hey, who cares whatever.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know his version of fun.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: He's just living in the fun world. It's exciting, it's naughty,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: it's I don't know, it's she's a reporter, I'm a
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: head coach. Wow, this is just crazy. There's a level
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: of excitement. It's the fun world. You're living in the
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: fun world. And then when you get busted and all
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, you leave the fun world and you
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: are smack dab crash landing back to the real world.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: It has to be such a dose of reality where
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: it's just like, I'm the biggest hypocrite on the planet.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Right now, I'm telling my players, you will have respect
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: for everybody in this building, everybody in this locker room,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: anybody throughout the hallways, anyone that you come into contact with.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: You will have respect for them within this organization. And
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: he doesn't even have respect for his own wife, his
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: own kids. Like, again, he's been in the fun world.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: He's not even thinking about that. It's not even registering.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, there's some undercover photos. They
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: get exposed. They do this hardcore denial of this is
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: a joke. We're not no, not no, and then it
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: turns out yes, actually yes, and they're hardcore busted. I
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: think it's the ultimate ice water gatorade bath, you know,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: of reality. And look, he should be dealing with this.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: He and I honestly believe like, I bet he feels
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: so ashamed. I bet he feels so guilty. I bet
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: he feels so bad that he's done this for so long.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: He's told his players to have respect. He's hadn't. He
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: didn't have any respect flex six years, the last six years,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: no respect. He is a walking, talking fraud. He is
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: a complete hypocrite, and he's just now realizing this. I'm
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: telling you what, man, even if he scrolled Twitter and
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: saw all the jokes and all the memes, he could
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: go through every airport and TMZ could ask him every
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: question in the book and people can make fun. It
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: won't feel as bad. Nothing will feel as bad as
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: the realization of how wrong this freaking guy has been
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: and he should. Again, this isn't a poor Vrabel thing.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: This is just like, this is just the reality of it.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: Where I find that interesting where listen music wise? So
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you a story Steve Gorman, he hosted a
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: show on Fox Sports Radio for a little while and
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: he was the drummer of the Black Crows, been a
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: musician for a long long time in his life, and
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: he said something that always stuck with me. He was
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: he it's gonna play this. It was like a tribute show.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: They were just gonna play a bunch of Led Zeppelin songs.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: And I went out there and they had a great turnout.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: This packed place was packed, and I remember Steve talking
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: about this. He's all excited. Is, Oh, then we're playing
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: all these Zeppelin fans, huge fan of Zeppelin, right playing
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: all these shows. They're playing all these songs, man, come on,
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: come on to the show, YadA. And he's like, when
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I when I'm playing these songs, I'm going to another planet,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: you know. Like and anybody who plays music, I played
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: guitar for a long time. When you are in it,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: that's how it feels. It's like you're not even really
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: here anymore. And that's why musicians is kind of eccentric.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: It's kind of weird because they spend half their time somewhere.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: They're on another planet. They just leave planet Earth and
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: you are so into the music. You are somewhere else
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: and you come out of it and you're like, oh,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: what's going It takes you a while, like, oh, I'm
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: back to Earth right now. Like that's really how it is.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: And I think that the whole Rabel Russini cheating scandal thing, I.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Think that's what they were doing.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: I think they were literally escaping earth and reality to
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: do this, you know, naughty, crazy.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Fun, exciting thing.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: And now it is all blown up and it is
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: the reality of that whole situation. But I say all
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: of that to weave it back to week one. I
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: don't think he's going anywhere. And I'm not saying what
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: should what shouldn't happen. I'm just telling you what is
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: and what the reality of this whole situation was or
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: is going to be. If you look at the Patriots,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: they went four and thirteen and then they went four
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: and thirteen again, and then Rabel took over and they
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: went to the Super Bowl. Okay, right, Robert Kraft was
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: getting we'll call him adult massages. Okay, the owner of
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: the team was doing that, and he's.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: Gonna run Rable out of town. I don't think that's
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: gonna happen.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: You just got rid of the failed experiment of Drod
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Mayo going four and thirteen and you all of a
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: sudden take the speed pass to the super Bowl and
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: you're immediately running him out of town the next off season.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: That's not gonna happen. He would have to lose the
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: locker room. There would have to be some story that
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: comes out from his past with Russini that is just
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: like what you know, like beyond just wait what you know?
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: They I don't even want to make up stuff, you know,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: because it's partially irresponsible. They have to be something that
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: is so crazy off the radar, like no, this is dude,
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: this is the last straw. Like the Patriots at this point,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: they just can't. There'd have to be something wild, wild,
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: beyond what we've heard about for him not to have
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: this job. That's just the reality of it. And look,
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: this is not a gender thing. If Rabel were the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: reporter and he's hooking up with a female coach, his
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: journalistic integrity is shot. He'd be out of a gig.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Like this is the thing to keep in mind, all right,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: It's all about who you're employed by. If Mike Vrabel
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: were employed by the athletic who is owned by The
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: New York Times. Okay, and he's hooking up with I
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: don't know a WNBA head coach. Right, it's Mike Vrabel.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: He's a he's an insider, right, he's on the scoop,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: he's a writer, and he's hooking up with a WNBA
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: head coach. I'm just trying to think of a sport
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: that would have a female head coach, right, And uh yeah,
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: the New York Times is the employer. He's out of
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: a gig. He's out of a gig. That's just the
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: way it's gonna go. Now, Mike Rabel, who's employed by
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: the Patriots with again Robert Kraft, who has had some
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: some iffy ethical choices over the years, let's just say
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: that he's not gonna be out of a gig. Not
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: when they just improved from four wins to a Super
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Bowl appearance. That's not gonna happen. So no, I don't
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: agree with Patty that that Rabel's gonna be out of
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: a gig and won't be coaching week one. Have I
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: done anything to sway you, Patty, or you still believe
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: that he's gonna be out of a gig. It's fine
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: if you do. What do you think?
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: I I like your reasoning is like the likelihood is
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: he's probably gonna stay. But like I I agree with
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: your reasoning and like I really do like it's I'll
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: even meet you halfway.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: And they like if.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: Something like overly gratuitous, like something crazy like another you know,
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: another bigger development like this is just the tip of
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: the iceberg type thing right now, something bigger comes out,
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: Like yeah, I think, you know, we could start talking
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: about like I think as of if this is the
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: worst of it, Yeah, you're probably right. He's still gonna
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: be coaching. He's gonna have a little like you know,
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: he's gonna be guilty in the eyes of the public, right,
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: but like as far as like the locker room, like no,
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: they they they they're they are standing by him unless
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: it gets way worse.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd have to have like a rolodex of racinies,
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like he's just a serial cheater.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: He's just running through them. What's the old I'm running
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: through these hose like dray No, remember the old? If
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: he's doing that, If I don't know, it just takes
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: a weird turn that you know he's fathering children. He's like,
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: More illegitimate children, I'll.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: Pay you to have an abortion, like what? Just crazy?
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Like it would have to be along those lines for
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: him to be out of a gig. The thing that
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: I think is more realistic is I expect them to
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: be the head coach when Week one rolls around. We
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: don't know their schedule yet, we know their opponents, and
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the schedule gets a lot tougher than it was. It
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: was Swiss cheese this past year. It gets a lot tougher.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: It's a first play schedule, and we don't know. We'll
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: find out next week, right, the schedule will be released
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: for the Patriots and we'll know week one, Week two,
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: week three. Let's say they start off with some tough
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: games right out of the gate. Let's say they start
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: off one in three. I think it's realistic to like
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: forecast a complete overreaction at that point. Let's say again,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: they won the AFC, they made it to the Super Bowl,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: and they start one in three, one and four. I
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: think it would be like, this team isn't focused Mike
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Vrabel his whole off season, it's coming back to bite them.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: I think it's going to be something like that right
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: where I think it could be overreaction city, but overreaction
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: city to the point where the Patriots are like, you know,
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: we just got to cut bait with the guy who
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: just took us from four and thirteen to a Super
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Bowl appearance. I just don't see that happening. I don't.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: There is no there's no such like journalistic integrity. There's
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: no NFL head coaching integrity. It's not the same thing.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: It's not the same expectation, right like it's it's just
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: completely different. So I think he's gonna be on the sideline,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: all right. We get to a couple of the tweets
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: that have caught my attention that I think are pretty funny.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: The militia's checking in always appreciate that. Oh I gotta
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: share a story that's completely off the radar. I read
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: something today that I guess is sort of sports related
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: but not really, and it just blew my mind. I
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: have to share it with you next. I think you'll
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: enjoy it. But it surprised me like crazy, and it
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: has nothing to do with a with Mike Frabel. So
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: if you're done with that story, that you're in luck
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: and we have nothing to do with that. Coming up next,
• 20:06

• 21:21
  Speaker 2: I'm going to push the story back a little bit.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: There's something I read today that's I guess sports ish related,
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: but not really. It blew my mind. But I'll get
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: to that at the end of this hour. Okay, because
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: the Malord militia is on hold, and I feel like
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: we need to go to the militia. I don't like
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: keeping the militia waiting, you know, I appreciate their taking
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: the time out and interacting. So that's great. So we
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: roll out the red carpet. Let's go to Let me
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: go to Lee in Florida. First off, Lee, you're on
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. What's going on? What's on your mind?
• 21:57
  Speaker 9: Hey, thanks for taking my call. Brian, Yeah, real quick.
• 22:02
  Speaker 9: I meant I should have told the screen guy to
• 22:04
  Speaker 9: do this. But I want you to check and see
• 22:07
  Speaker 9: if Babe Ruth is on that one thousand strikeout list.
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: You know, he was ninety and forty five and five
• 22:14
  Speaker 9: years of pitching a couple of World Series rings. I
• 22:16
  Speaker 9: think you might know some of the history there. And
• 22:19
  Speaker 9: the reason why I also mentioned all that is, you
• 22:23
  Speaker 9: know where Ben is going to be on Saturday. He's
• 22:26
  Speaker 9: gonna be about eight to ten blocks away from where
• 22:29
  Speaker 9: Babe Bruce spent one season there in Worcester and commuted
• 22:33
  Speaker 9: in by train into Sengway Park. And I don't know
• 22:38
  Speaker 9: which season it was, but anyway, the house is on
• 22:41
  Speaker 9: a historical register there in Worcester. And Ben's going to
• 22:44
  Speaker 9: be at the wus Sox Stadium, which is right there
• 22:48
  Speaker 9: at the train station.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: Oh cool, Yeah, yeah, nice cool. I'm looking it up
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: right now, Lee. And you know the Red Sox Yankees
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: career for Babe as a pitcher, he had four hundred
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: and eighty eight strikeouts, so it was almost halfway there. Yeah,
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: but yeah, not even no, he just.
• 23:06
  Speaker 9: Didn't pitch wrong enough either, you know. So, I but
• 23:09
  Speaker 9: what a record. I mean, nineteen forty five and five
• 23:11
  Speaker 9: years of pitching with the Red Sox, couple World Series rings,
• 23:14
  Speaker 9: and of course he's got so much pitching World Series
• 23:17
  Speaker 9: records that you know will never be broken. The biggest
• 23:19
  Speaker 9: twenty he's got three wins in a row in the
• 23:22
  Speaker 9: World Series games, and so you know, that's just you know,
• 23:25
  Speaker 9: there's so many more that he did, you know, low
• 23:28
  Speaker 9: him down. Yeah, in the World Series, So.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt, yeah, no, it's yeah, that's great. I'm
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: glad that you you checked in with that, and I'm
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: just I'm doing a little bit of more research. I'm
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: just thinking glass now. It was something it was a
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: little bit under eight hundred innings, right that he pitched.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: And that's kind of interesting where that's so fast, right,
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: babe pitched it looks like twelve hundred and twenty one innings,
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: So he pitched a lot of innings, man like. So yeah,
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: I know, it's a completely differ an era, right, So.
• 24:01
  Speaker 9: We read stocks fans to the Yankees celebrate the home runs,
• 24:04
  Speaker 9: but we read sotox fans celebrate the pitching the baboos.
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: So yeah, and hey, you know what will come in
• 24:10
  Speaker 9: and then I'll let you go. You know, you got
• 24:11
  Speaker 9: a lot here.
• 24:13
  Speaker 7: You know, you talked about the.
• 24:15
  Speaker 9: You know, the twenty four teams and the seventy six teams. Yeah,
• 24:18
  Speaker 9: you know football and basketball, you know, and then you
• 24:20
  Speaker 9: were like, it's inevitable. Well, you know, one of the
• 24:23
  Speaker 9: big things that's inevitable is that there's so many schools
• 24:26
  Speaker 9: out there that are spending so much money to expand
• 24:30
  Speaker 9: their campuses, expand their football, expand their basketball programs, spending
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: a lot of money to get into Division one status,
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: you know, and you know, I think there was something
• 24:41
  Speaker 9: there was some kind of quote there was like two
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: hundred teams, you know, when it came to football that
• 24:46
  Speaker 9: were competing for that you know, national championship. I think
• 24:49
  Speaker 9: in the future we're looking at Mobbie more like two
• 24:51
  Speaker 9: hundred and fifty to three hundred teams. You know, schools
• 24:54
  Speaker 9: are just you know, putting so much money into these
• 24:56
  Speaker 9: programs now, and as you said, it's inevitable that's going
• 25:00
  Speaker 9: to grow to try to get all the competition in there.
• 25:04
  Speaker 9: And so anyway, great show, Brian, and I hope to
• 25:07
  Speaker 9: catch you next time.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: All right, all right, man, Yeah, thanks Lee, appreciate that
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: good stuff. Yeah, man. Yeah. The expansion thing is I've
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: heard people break it down like this, where you know,
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: I'll do a show on the weekends, we do Countdown,
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: and one of the guys I work with is rich Ornberger.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: So we do a show on Saturday mornings and he'll
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: point out, he's like, you know, if you look at
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: the the percentage of teams and let's just pick something.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Let's say college basketball, they're like over three hundred teams, right,
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: and so he's like, you know, seventy six when you're
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: just doing the percentages, and you can compare that to
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: the NFL, they're thirty two teams, fourteen get in, right,
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: So the percentage break that some people play that game
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: and it's like, I just I don't play that game
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: or the NFL. I'm sorry the NBA. NBA sixteen teams
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: get into the postseason, they're only thirty teams. It's over half.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: So if you're looking at if you're looking at college
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: basketball and everybody that's in the top level, it's over
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: three hundred schools. We don't have one hundred and sixty
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: some schools in the NCAA tournament. But I'm like, it's
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: just not the same thing, man. The percentage argument just
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: doesn't work the same way. You play the same game
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: with college football and say, well, even if they got
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: to twenty four teams, they're at over one hundred and
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: thirty teams in FBS, that's still a smaller percentage than
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: this league or that sport or what It's like, it
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: just doesn't work the same way. Sorry, I don't want
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: three and four lost teams in a twenty four team
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: playoff in college football. I just think that's dumb. I
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: have no problem with saying, win more freaking games and
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: if you don't better luck next year. That's the only
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: way you're gonna keep the regular season meaning as much
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: as it does. You're gonna water it down. It's not
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: gonna mean hardly anything. These teams that are at the
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: top of college football and you give them three mulligans
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: and they can still be in the playoff. Bro, these
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: teams that they start off like eight to no, they're
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: already they're a cinch to make the playoff. I just
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: don't want to live in a world like that. Are
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: We've got dorcoh he's in Hawaii. What's going on?
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Darko?
• 27:30

• 27:44

• 28:00
  Speaker 7: Coop in La Lorena. Yep, you betcha, let's see. Uh yeah.
• 28:07
  Speaker 7: I just want to ask everybody what rhymes with art?
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Hmm. I can think of a couple of words.
• 28:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe stuff we shouldn't discuss on the air. But yeah,
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: it's gonna be pretty exciting. We're gonna be up there
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: and then we're gonna go to Frisco from La and
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: then go from there to Reno and Tahoe and and
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: then Midwest from there and uh, Minnesota and all those
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: good places, and we'll be calling in and doing comedy
• 28:36
  Speaker 7: shows on the way and having a good time.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Very nice, man, nice. Is there a city along the
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: way that you're like, oh gosh, we have to go
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: to this dump of a place, If you're being honest,
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Doorco Is there a place like that on the tour?
• 28:51
  Speaker 7: Is Stockton considered a city?
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean technically it is, but I get it.
• 28:58
  Speaker 7: I get it just a dumping point for something or rather,
• 29:03
  Speaker 7: I'm not sure.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah heany fair enough?
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: Man?
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Well, hey crush the tour. Appreciate you Door.
• 29:08
  Speaker 7: Good stuff, man, I love you, love you.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that good stuff. Nice like it have we
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: got Smitty, he's in Rhode Island. What's going on, Smitty?
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: How are things?
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: Ah Man?
• 29:20
  Speaker 6: Not too bad? How you doing?
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Ryan?
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: Pretty good man? Pretty good, good good man.
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: I just wanted to touch a little bit on the
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: Rable situation going up here in New England. Yeah, I
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: think that, like you said, his job, I think he'll
• 29:34
  Speaker 6: be the coach for the Patriots week one. Now, this
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: team has done a really good job the last twenty
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: plus years of burying noise, keeping it out of the
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: locker room. More importantly, I feel like the organization has
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: his back, and it seems all the players are also
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: behind the coach. Now, with that being said, if more
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: stuff comes out, more importantly, if he fathered a baby,
• 29:59
  Speaker 6: you know, I know, have one of her kids name
• 30:02
  Speaker 6: is Mike. So I think that if that ends up
• 30:06
  Speaker 6: coming out, then the organization might have their hand pushed
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: a little bit and maybe he won't be around. But
• 30:13
  Speaker 6: as far as the situation is going on now, even
• 30:16
  Speaker 6: with the boat thing that just came out the other day,
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: I still think that coach Rabel will be the coach
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: here in New England week one.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you. Listen, man, as it stands
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: right now, he's going to be the coaching week one.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: There would have to be some crazy curveball. And it's
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: just like, all right, dude, you're fathering children while married
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: and she's married. It's like, if it gets to a
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: point like that, maybe the Patriots move on. But where
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: it stands right now, no, it'll be their week one.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: It have to be something crazy.
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, especially after the season they had last year. You know,
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: they did so good, and I mean it's got to
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: take something a little bit more. I mean, obviously what's
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: going on right now it's a little crazy, but I
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: feel there's got to be a little bit more for him.
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: To get pushed out.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: But anyways, thanks to taking the call. Mine take care.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you two smitty good stuff. Man, appreciate that, all right.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: So here's the story that blew my socks off, all right,
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: and it's not really a sports story. So there's a newsletter.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: My sister told me about this newsletter. It's called fourteen forty.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Maybe I shouldn't even say that. I'm not promoting it.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying it's good. I'll take a peek at
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: it pretty much every day. So I have a famous
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: quote at the bottom, or like a cool quote. Maybe
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: it's not, you know, the most famous quote of all time,
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: but it's got something that's interesting. That's a part of
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: it that I like. But anyway, I saw this little
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: blurb in the newsletter in the morning on Thursday and
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: it just blew me away. So here's the story. It's
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: very short. So there's a British father and son, George
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: and Josh Kohler, and they commit they completed this epic
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: trip around the world. They could I pleaded it on Saturday.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: They're biking, okay, they biked over eighteen thousand miles. They
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: went across thirty countries in four hundred days over a year,
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: four hundred days, like they're on this bike tour, and
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: some of the stats are insane. With this where they
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: climbed one hundred and eighty thousand meters during their journey.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: That's the equivalent of ascending Mount Everest twenty times. And
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: they earned three Guinness World Records while doing this epic
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: bike ride or bike trip, I don't know what you
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: would even call it. And so at the end it
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: says they raised money for charity. So after hearing all
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: this stuff, Patty, who's with us producing the show? Mark Ramsey,
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: I want you to fit the chime in over here, buddy,
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: After doing all four hundred days, thirty countries, over eighteen
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: thousand miles, how much money do you think they raised
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: for charity doing this? What would be your ballpark guest, Patty,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: We'll start with you. What would you say?
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: Oh gosh, I mean for that much, you would think
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: they would have to get at least about ten million.
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna put the stamp on ten million. That could
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: be over or way under. I'm not sure, but I'm
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: gonna I'm gonna go for ten mil.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Okay, Patty says ten mil. What do you say? Mark Ramsey?
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say eighteen million? Eighteen million dollars? Okay? Are
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: you ready for this? I don't know. I don't have
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: my drum roll ready here. So they look at Mark
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: Ramsey's on the money.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: They raised seventy thousand dollars. What yes?
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Like, wow, can we open a go fund?
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: Made? These dudes biked for four hundred days, they went
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: over eighteen thousand miles.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: I'll give them some cash.
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: That's good for a betty at least, Like, let's get
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: them some more money. I can't believe they did all
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: that and it's only seventy g's.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Give it were on records out of this thing.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Man, that that blows me away. Man, I don't know it.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know what countries they were in. We were like,
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: you know, not big tippers in these countries. I don't
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: know what's going on, man, but I feel bad. They
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: did that epic trip and it's Wow. Maybe it's the charity.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: Maybe they're like, I can't give money to that. That's
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: a weird charity.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know the specifics, but man, the dollar amount
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: blew me away. And I don't mean this in a
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: disrespectful way. I hope you realize that, right, Like, I'm
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: not saying weak. You guys got to do better. I'm
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: just like, the people donating have to do better. Look
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: what these freaking guys did that's worth the donation, right.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: That's why it just blows me away that people didn't
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: donate more. It's nothing that the bike riders didn't do,
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: it's what the donators didn't do, right, That's what I'm
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: really saying. That's crazy, But anyway, I saw that and
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: I was blown away. I probably would have guessed something
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: like you guys did ten mil, eighteen mil, seventy g's
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: it's crazy. That is just crazy. All right? Eight seven
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: seven ninety nine on Fox is your phone number. I'll
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: tell you what. We'll get to a couple of tweets,
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: and I want you to be prepared. I have a
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: mixture of audio, which I'll tell you what. I've put
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: some audio together in the past. I don't know if
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: anything will outdo when I'm going to play for you
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: next hour. It is as top shelf as it can
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: possibly get. I don't want to oversell this, so I'm
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: just gonna shut up right now, but I'll tell you
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: what it might. It might change the way you think

• 36:42
  Speaker 2: I do like a couple of the tweets this evening.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: I always think of it as the nighttime, right, Like
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: I didn't go to bed, so it's still the evening
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: for me. It might be the morning for you. I don't.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: I never know how to say that I'm filling in
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: for Big Ben. But anyway, Rod checked in talking about
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: so I have to back up a little bit. We
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: had this knockdown, drag out debate last night when I
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: was filling in for Big Ben about Anne Hathaway was
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: named People Magazine's most Beautiful woman of twenty twenty six.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, that's ridiculous. She's beautiful, she's talented, she's
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: not the most beautiful. Sorry, And anyway, late night Drug
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: tester was like, all right, ask Patty Sweeka, who's the
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: producer tonight? Who he thinks he's going Anne Hathaway or
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: is he going Sophia Vergara?
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: Right?
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: And so we had the whole debate, and my whole
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: question is if we're on a beach and Sophia Virgara
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: is walking one way and Anne Hathaway is walking the
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: other way, who are you looking at? It's not Anne,
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: all right, And so I like this from Rod. I
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: had to set that up so it makes any sense.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: He just wrote in Brian, I'm looking at both. What
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: he's that's cheating, Rod. I mean, it's a legitimate answer,
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: but that's cheating. Sofia's going west AND's going east. You
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: gotta pick a lane. Who's it gonna be? You're not
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: east bounding down, not at that stage. No way, you're
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: looking westward, baby, I guarantee it, or I don't know
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: what you're doing with your life. That's basically what it
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: boils down to. Douglas. He checked in and said Anne
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: Hathaway has nothing on Sophia. I would agree with that.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: I like this. It's not Ann or Sofia related. But
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: Steve checked in, My guy, Steve Rodriguez, this is kind
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: of This is cool, but it's also funny in a way.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: That's why I wanted to share it with you. So
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: he wrote, when Dan Patrick retires in two years, my
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: three choices to host the show with the dan Nets
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: number one, Ross Tucker number two, Reggie Miller number three.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Brian No. Now that is the hell of a compliment, Steve.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: I love that very nice. I know that many people
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: would disagree, but I like that that's your list. The
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: thing that I find funny is Reggie's not even a
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: sports radio host.
• 39:06
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: So it's funny. I'm still I'm still like, Reggie is
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: fantastic what he does, very talented, you know, as sports opinions,
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: and I think he's really good as a color analyst.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: I think it does a great job with the NBA games.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: But it's funny. The funny part is, even though he's famous,
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: and especially in sports circles, we know who Reggie Miller
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: is at his core, He's not a sports radio host.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: So I'm still looking up at someone who's actually not
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: in the field, you know. So that seems about right,
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: seems about right. I do have to I promised you
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: tremendous audio and we will deliver that will come your
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: way at the top of the hour. Also, we have
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: a special guest who will be calling in momentarily. Very
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: much looking forward to that, and I hear that there's
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: a story related with this special guest where maybe falling
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: down an escalator is involved. That's all I can give
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: you right now. Okay, that's all I can give you
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: at this stage. I also what you have to look
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: forward to next hour. I have an NFL star that
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: i'd rather just hear nothing about going forward. And also
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: I would like to I would like to make a comparison.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: You know old school naked gym Guy. You know the
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: guy that's just standing there air drying for an inappropriate
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: amount of time, totally nude. There is a new school
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: edition of Naked Gym Guy. I finally made this connection
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: well at the gym the last couple of days. So
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: I'd like to share that with you and see if
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: you're on board with that or not. Okay, Championship knock
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: your socks off audio hitting you coming up.
