Joe Benigno | Sports Radio Personality Breaks Down the MLB Trade Deadline · Sid & Friends In The Morning

0:00
Speaker 1: It's a disgrace. It's a miserable trade deadline. It's a
0:02
Speaker 1: failure of a deadline. There's no doubt about it. That's
0:05
Speaker 1: the only way to look at it. They are going
0:07
Speaker 1: to continue to throw out the worst catching situation in
0:10
Speaker 1: all of the sport, and they're doing it willingly. Bottom line,
0:14
Speaker 1: they're willingly playing the worst catchers in all of baseball.
0:20
Speaker 1: The New York Yankees will continue to roll out. I'm
0:22
Speaker 1: not going to kill them for rolling into the season.
0:24
Speaker 1: I think we all expected Wells to be better, not
0:26
Speaker 1: an All Star, but better than this. They are now
0:28
Speaker 1: willingly after the trade deadline, rolling out the worst position
0:34
Speaker 1: in all of sports. Arguably, the catcher position for the
0:36
Speaker 1: New York Yankees is the worst position player group in
0:40
Speaker 1: all of Major League Baseball, the New York Yankee.
0:42
Speaker 2: The Yankees did acquire a two decent bats. One of them,
0:45
Speaker 2: the kid from the Nationals can really hit, hit a
0:47
Speaker 2: big home run yesterday at the time gave the Yankees
0:49
Speaker 2: to lead. They did squander it. But the shortstop situation
0:53
Speaker 2: changes too because they did send down Vaulpe. Looks like
0:57
Speaker 2: they're growing tired of that. They're gonna bring up George
0:59
Speaker 2: Lombard be really good third base. Yes to McMahon, experiment
1:02
Speaker 2: wasn't very good either, So Brian Cashman taking some heat
1:08
Speaker 2: from some of the big talents on the band, like
1:10
Speaker 2: this guy legend on Saturday Morning, still one of the
1:14
Speaker 2: all time greatest. Now on this show every week, my
1:17
Speaker 2: former midday partner of the great American Joseph Beningo Jojo
1:22
Speaker 2: you your colleagues over there at the band very top
1:25
Speaker 2: on the Yankees.
1:27
Speaker 3: You know what I'm tired of hearing his Yankee fans
1:29
Speaker 3: freaking cry. You know, you want to look at my
1:33
Speaker 3: disaster of a team. Okay, the nineteen games on the
1:36
Speaker 3: five hundred. You got this absolute incompetent Okay, small market
1:41
Speaker 3: general manager, the genius. He's smarter than everybody went to Harvard,
1:44
Speaker 3: reinvented the game. My team is nineteen efing games on
1:48
Speaker 3: the five hundred. He's all made all these trades. If
1:51
Speaker 3: one of these guys, one of these freaking prospects that
1:54
Speaker 3: they traded for, becomes a decent major league I'd be surprised.
1:59
Speaker 3: And I'm sick and hearing the Yankee fans. You're in
2:01
Speaker 3: the playoffs every damn year, every year. Okay, and you're
2:06
Speaker 3: crying about your catcher. Why didn't you call the Mets?
2:09
Speaker 3: Maybe you could have got that Francisco Alvarez. I'm tired
2:12
Speaker 3: of watching him swing of pitches thirty feet out off
2:15
Speaker 3: the plate. You know what, I don't want to hear
2:17
Speaker 3: it anymore. I'm tired of hearing the Yankee fan cry.
2:21
Speaker 3: You're going through. You don't even have Judge, you don't
2:23
Speaker 3: have g and Carlo, you don't even have Bellinger right now,
2:25
Speaker 3: and your team is still right there, a million games
2:28
Speaker 3: ahead in a wild card. You're going to the playoffs.
2:30
Speaker 3: You got one of the best pitching staffs in the game.
2:32
Speaker 3: You just got this guy's hit home run last night?
2:35
Speaker 3: What's his name? God see, yes, he's got twenty four
2:39
Speaker 3: home runs. They got another guy that they traded for yesterday,
2:42
Speaker 3: big home run giant. I don't want to hear it.
2:45
Speaker 2: No, I'm with you, hear it anymore.
2:46
Speaker 3: I'm with you.
2:47
Speaker 2: I'm I'm with him now. Well tell me this. These
2:52
Speaker 2: are the guys the Mets got with of Okay, Pta Weaver,
2:57
Speaker 2: Barzamon Holmes, Taylor and really, I know you wanted to
3:02
Speaker 2: keep Clay Craig and Sima Gozo talked about how Clay
3:06
Speaker 2: he goes to the Cubs, can still come back because
3:09
Speaker 2: he's a free agent at the end of the year.
3:11
Speaker 3: He said, you know what, these guys don't come back.
3:13
Speaker 3: I know it's happened to occasionally. He's not coming back.
3:15
Speaker 3: You know. Kills me about Clay Holmes. This is the
3:18
Speaker 3: one guy that the Genius got right, Let's be honest.
3:21
Speaker 3: The one guy he made he was a relief pitcher
3:24
Speaker 3: with the Yankees. He made him a starter and he
3:26
Speaker 3: was a quality, solid starter. The one guy that of
3:30
Speaker 3: all the moves he made that he got right. Okay,
3:32
Speaker 3: all these other guys at disasters, Polanco, Simeon, Bashett, Robert,
3:38
Speaker 3: they all stink. Peralta, he's stunk now. They got rid
3:42
Speaker 3: of him too. And the one guy that the Genius
3:45
Speaker 3: turn smarter than everybody. I think he you know, the
3:47
Speaker 3: great athletic ability. I heard he was the captain of
3:50
Speaker 3: the chess team at Harvard. Okay, you know I don't
3:53
Speaker 3: want to hear it. An it's a freaking joke, a joke.
3:57
Speaker 3: So the one guy that was Eddie Good Holmes, he
4:00
Speaker 3: that's rid of. There's no way he's coming back. Who
4:02
Speaker 3: the hell wants to come back? To this mess.
4:04
Speaker 2: No, you're right, and the company. Now he's not coming back.
4:07
Speaker 2: Let's take him a lot of money. I mean, coman
4:09
Speaker 2: can still pay him a lot of money. Then you
4:10
Speaker 2: may come back.
4:12
Speaker 3: He's not coming back. I don't think there's going to
4:14
Speaker 3: be no baseball next year. Well that's true, So get
4:17
Speaker 3: ready for that baseball fans that there's not gonna be.
4:19
Speaker 2: There's no way. And I gotta tell you, you know,
4:22
Speaker 2: because we've been talking about for a year. Actually met
4:24
Speaker 2: the guy at my buddy Keith Cantriss's dinner a couple
4:27
Speaker 2: of weeks ago. He's like the new Marvin Miller, and
4:30
Speaker 2: he said to me, No, it's not gonna be baseball now,
4:32
Speaker 2: there's not gonna be in two years, but one year
4:34
Speaker 2: it's gonna be gone. And when you look at what
4:36
Speaker 2: the Dodgers did this weekend getting screwed up on the Tigers.
4:39
Speaker 3: God, that's why that one Teamoo. Bro, let me ask
4:43
Speaker 3: you a question. Okay, all right, go back you you well,
4:46
Speaker 3: you're you're a lot yoga to me. But still you
4:48
Speaker 3: go back to the mid seventies when Bowie Kune voided
4:51
Speaker 3: Charlie Finley tried to sell off his plays he sold.
4:54
Speaker 3: He tried to sell Joe, Rudy and Roley Fingers to
4:56
Speaker 3: the Red Sox Vider blues that he remember yep, okay,
4:59
Speaker 3: all right, booie. Coon steps and says, no, you can't
5:01
Speaker 3: do that, You're not doing that. And where's where's Manford?
5:05
Speaker 3: Where is he? How could the Dodgers possibly get this guy? School?
5:08
Speaker 3: Can you tell me that? How is that possible? If
5:12
Speaker 3: this was George Steinbrenner doing it, they'd be killing them
5:16
Speaker 3: all they'd be doing, be killing starting Yankees and buying
5:19
Speaker 3: a champion. That's all we heard for freaking years. And
5:21
Speaker 3: I'm not a Yankee fan, but I'm sticking up for George,
5:23
Speaker 3: who should be in all fame. By the way, that's
5:25
Speaker 3: a joke too. But I mean, so it's unbelievable, bro,
5:29
Speaker 3: How did the Dodgers get this guy?
5:30
Speaker 2: I mean, and think about this. The Dodgers spent a
5:32
Speaker 2: ton of money on Kyle Tucker, who just started hitting
5:34
Speaker 2: about a week ago.
5:36
Speaker 3: They gave all that extremely overrated way look Ahead.
5:38
Speaker 2: And they gave all that money to it. Edwin Diaz,
5:40
Speaker 2: a former met closer, has been heard all year. So
5:43
Speaker 2: they've given these guys money that other teams can't afford
5:46
Speaker 2: to pay them. They're not even playing some of these
5:48
Speaker 2: guys with.
5:49
Speaker 3: What needs to be done in this offseason. Okay, not
5:52
Speaker 3: only does he need to be a salary cap, clearly
5:55
Speaker 3: they need to be that, but they need a floor
5:57
Speaker 3: because you gotta have these teams like Burg, like Tampa,
6:02
Speaker 3: even though they continue to win, right like Kansas City,
6:05
Speaker 3: Like these teams, they don't want to spend any freaking
6:07
Speaker 3: money at all. Okay, they got to spend x amount
6:10
Speaker 3: of money. They have to spend a certain.
6:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Tampa, you just said Kevin kas gets ninety
6:15
Speaker 2: wins every year. They got Parolta. They're in first place
6:18
Speaker 2: right now. How do you hamme the Tampa Bay race.
6:20
Speaker 3: I'm not hammering, I'm just saying, but they look, I
6:22
Speaker 3: mean they just traded for Parolta. I mean, so now,
6:25
Speaker 3: the the Rais are the one team that knows how
6:27
Speaker 3: to do it on a limited budget.
6:29
Speaker 2: If you will, I mean, good, could you make the
6:30
Speaker 2: could you make the argument what that just said and
6:32
Speaker 2: they're doing it every year? You talk about the Yankees,
6:35
Speaker 2: you gotta make that. Is Kevin Cash not an amazing manager?
6:39
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it's also the you know, the g
6:41
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what the GM is there or whatever,
6:43
Speaker 3: but it's also that you know, these guys know how
6:46
Speaker 3: to do it. They know when to get rid of guys.
6:48
Speaker 3: You know, they obviously have a very good farm system
6:50
Speaker 3: where they developed these kids, and then when they got
6:52
Speaker 3: to pay them, they let them go. You know generally
6:54
Speaker 3: what happened right, you know, with Tampa. But the Dodger
6:58
Speaker 3: situation is out of control. And like I said, if
7:00
Speaker 3: this was George Steinbern and the Yankees doing what the
7:02
Speaker 3: Dodgers are doing now, they'd be getting killed. They be
7:04
Speaker 3: getting killed by Major League. Really was an absolute freaking misgrace.
7:10
Speaker 3: I hate the Dodgers. Let me tell you, there is
7:12
Speaker 3: no team in sports now and this is accompass in
7:15
Speaker 3: a lot of territory. Bro with your Patriots, the Dolphins,
7:18
Speaker 3: the Celtics, a lot of teams that could that could
7:21
Speaker 3: get that title. For for Beningo, I can't stand the
7:24
Speaker 3: freaking Dodgers. I hate them, Okay, I can't stand them. Well,
7:28
Speaker 3: look whatever you want here, whatever the do I heard,
7:32
Speaker 3: you know, I heard probably I heard Mike Trout is
7:34
Speaker 3: coming and they're gonna make a train schwar Philly is
7:37
Speaker 3: gonna gi him schwar But it's a joke.
7:39
Speaker 2: They're ruining baseball. They're gonna win the World Series for
7:41
Speaker 2: the third consecutive year, and there'll be no baseball. I
7:44
Speaker 2: want to shift gears to what two other sports?
7:46
Speaker 3: Yes the way, By the way, let me just say
7:48
Speaker 3: this to him. I know where you're going, but I
7:49
Speaker 3: want to say, is what's a bigger disaster Sterns or
7:52
Speaker 3: the w n B. A.
7:53
Speaker 2: Well, we're gonna get there too. Don't worry, I'll get there.
7:55
Speaker 3: Uh.
7:55
Speaker 2: In ten days, Your New York Jets will host your Buccaneers.
7:59
Speaker 2: In eleven day, my Giants will host the Vikings. That's right,
8:02
Speaker 2: all leading up to Game one, which, of course, both
8:05
Speaker 2: teams play on Sunday the thirteenth, the Jets at Tennessee
8:09
Speaker 2: one o'clock. The Giants will host Dallas the first Sunday
8:13
Speaker 2: night game. Don't beget there's a Wednesday night game this year.
8:16
Speaker 2: The Patriots and Seahawks gonna we played the Super Bowl.
8:18
Speaker 3: We got a Thursday game in Australia because of Australia.
8:21
Speaker 3: Everybody in Australia is clamoring.
8:23
Speaker 2: Fan now after Australians, forty nine Ers and Rams. It's
8:26
Speaker 2: all nonsense. Moving all over the But I guess you know.
8:29
Speaker 2: I saw an Instagram reel yesterday that this guy Bart
8:33
Speaker 2: Scott and there's a reason why ESPN fired him. Okay,
8:36
Speaker 2: but Chris Colin loves him. Don't beget when Colin replaced
8:39
Speaker 2: Bran Sessa on the band, it was Calin, Maggie, Bart Scott.
8:43
Speaker 2: It was a terrible show, a terrible show. So Scots
8:46
Speaker 2: on with Colin last night. I know Geno's black, and
8:49
Speaker 2: I know Bart Scott was a Jet, but he was
8:51
Speaker 2: literally yelling and screaming that the Jets are better off
8:55
Speaker 2: with Geno Smith than the Giants are with Jackson dart Well.
9:00
Speaker 3: I mean, come on, I mean you know, I mean
9:03
Speaker 3: really bought. I mean, look, Gino. Gino's a solid veteran guy,
9:09
Speaker 3: which the Jets need right now. I do want to
9:11
Speaker 3: see this kid Kate Kate club Nick at some point.
9:14
Speaker 3: But would I rather have a young, second year, potentially
9:18
Speaker 3: great young quarterback or would I have a veteran thirty
9:21
Speaker 3: five year old and Gino Smith?
9:22
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, Bart, really ridiculous, right, ridiculous? What
9:26
Speaker 2: is he?
9:27
Speaker 3: No?
9:27
Speaker 4: What?
9:27
Speaker 2: And Aaron Rodgers yesterday, being interviewed by Pat Mckerby.
9:30
Speaker 3: That when he was ripping Fauci. How good was that?
9:33
Speaker 2: He asked him about the Pittsburgh Steelers, and all Rodgers
9:37
Speaker 2: wanted to talk about Bauci? You know what now that
9:40
Speaker 2: we bought it up, Lewis he got two minutes. Cutting
9:42
Speaker 2: number ten. Pat McAfee ESPN asks Anwon Rodgers about the Steelers,
9:47
Speaker 2: and all the former Jet quarterback wanted to talk about
9:50
Speaker 2: was Tony Bouci, Cutting number ten.
9:52
Speaker 5: Do you've been very open about coming back for this
9:54
Speaker 5: year last rodeo and you talked about your wife saying,
9:56
Speaker 5: hey have another year. Mike McCarthy being here obviously a
9:58
Speaker 5: big deal. Can you tell tell us about the mindset
10:01
Speaker 5: of coming into your last season? Like that's a real thing,
10:03
Speaker 5: it feels like, because is everything better? Is everything funner?
10:06
Speaker 5: Is everything more awesome?
10:07
Speaker 2: Like?
10:08
Speaker 5: How do you kind of view this year? Verse maybe
10:09
Speaker 5: the years of the past?
10:10
Speaker 6: I'm gonna plead the fifth okay, okay, like like that
10:18

10:35
Speaker 7: answer a question, Yeah, what do we doing? And how
10:37
Speaker 7: much time did the network spend of that? How much
10:40
Speaker 7: time did they spend on my responses every week on
10:43
Speaker 7: my vaccination statu on Taylor at Travis's wedding? They did
10:50
Speaker 7: they do even a minute? Did they do even a
10:52
Speaker 7: minute on Tony Fauci?
10:54
Speaker 2: I don't think i've heard that. You got the idea
10:56
Speaker 2: Rogers the ESPN which put Putt maccabee in a spot
11:00
Speaker 2: that was that was great? Wasn't that great?
11:03
Speaker 3: You know what I gotta tell you, man, I love Rodgers.
11:05
Speaker 3: I gotta I gotta tell you this. I absolutely love
11:07
Speaker 3: the guy. We should look. I don't want to get
11:10
Speaker 3: back to him with the jets and everything that went down,
11:12
Speaker 3: whatever happened to happen. I don't want to rehash it now,
11:15
Speaker 3: but you know you gotta love him of course, telling
11:18
Speaker 3: it like it is. How about that? What a surprise, bro, here's.
11:21
Speaker 2: Another great cut for you. You mentioned the w NBA.
11:24
Speaker 2: This is Riley Gaines. He was an amazing swimmer who
11:27
Speaker 2: got beat by the Lloyd Love.
11:29
Speaker 3: Riley gains Yeah.
11:30
Speaker 2: Thomas Peter in the pool and at the University of
11:32
Speaker 2: Pennsylvania were dropped off my daughter Eva this week.
11:35
Speaker 3: Egulations. By the way, she's going to the IVY League.
11:37
Speaker 2: Bro Yes, IVY League.
11:39
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe Eva could eventually be like the met president
11:43
Speaker 3: of Baseball Operation.
11:44
Speaker 2: Why not he went to Harvard. She's going to upn
11:46
Speaker 2: be better.
11:46
Speaker 3: She'd be better than starting.
11:47
Speaker 2: Of course, she's actually in a law school there. They
11:51
Speaker 2: got Lebron James t shirts everywhere. It's funny to.
11:54
Speaker 3: Say, God, but he don't wait for the Knicks to
11:56
Speaker 3: play Lebron in the playoffs and stick it up his ass.
11:57
Speaker 2: I got to tell you right now, I'm gonna be
11:59
Speaker 2: there for the Sixers and nixter in the regular season.
12:01
Speaker 2: And I'm already going November eighth to see my Giants
12:04
Speaker 2: take on the Eagles in Billy and visit Ava that
12:06
Speaker 2: same weekend. But here here is Riley.
12:08
Speaker 3: Gaines to Lincoln.
12:12
Speaker 2: Financially, I've done that before the Veterans Stadium and got
12:15
Speaker 2: very ugly.
12:15
Speaker 3: You know that.
12:16
Speaker 2: Here's Roley Gaines cutting number eight. Play this from Aningo,
12:19
Speaker 2: Wh'll get a kick out of this.
12:22
Speaker 8: If the WNBA's goal is to become the most inclusive
12:24
Speaker 8: league in the history of ever and to hit a
12:26
Speaker 8: pretty big payday. Then they just got the opportunity of
12:28
Speaker 8: a lifetime thanks to Clay Travis introducing the Nashville Balls,
12:33
Speaker 8: the most inclusive team in all of WNBA history. Clay
12:36
Speaker 8: Travis vows to make it a one hundred percent trans team,
12:40
Speaker 8: meaning all players would be men identifying as women. He
12:44
Speaker 8: tweeted this, I'm prepared to buy WNBA expansion franchise and
12:47
Speaker 8: locate them in Nashville. I pledged to have a one
12:49
Speaker 8: hundred percent trans team, all men who identify as women.
12:52
Speaker 8: I will also employ a one hundred percent trans coaching staff.
12:54
Speaker 8: Most inclusive team in history. But Clay's not just saying it.
12:58
Speaker 8: He's putting his money where his mouth is. He offered
12:59
Speaker 8: the WNBA ten million dollars for a head to head
13:02
Speaker 8: basketball game between the defending WNBA champions, the Las Vegas Aces,
13:06
Speaker 8: and a boys' high school state title team of his choice.
13:09
Speaker 8: If the boys win, he'll give them ten million dollars
13:10
Speaker 8: to distribute as they see fit to their team members.
13:12
Speaker 8: The game on pay per view, with all profits donated
13:14
Speaker 8: to Tunnel to Towers to provide mortgage free homes to
13:17
Speaker 8: families of the see soldiers, police, and first responders. If
13:19
Speaker 8: the Aces were to beat the boys team, he would
13:21
Speaker 8: give the WNBA ten million dollars. And I don't think
13:24
Speaker 8: he's kidding because he just gave Vanderbilt Law School ten
13:26
Speaker 8: million dollars. So the WNBA gets to own the title
13:29
Speaker 8: of most inclusive league. They get to showcase their women's ability,
13:32
Speaker 8: and the proceeds go to a good cause. We've heard
13:35
Speaker 8: from virtually every WNBA coach at this point and the
13:38
Speaker 8: league itself that inclusivity is in fact the goal. So
13:42
Speaker 8: what say you? WNBA? Just know if you'd declined the
13:45
Speaker 8: offer that makes you bigoted transphobes buy your own standard.
13:49
Speaker 8: I'm ready to buy my Nashville Balls merch. I cannot
13:53
Speaker 8: believe this is real life.
13:54
Speaker 2: It is real life, man. Look, this is a racist league.
13:57
Speaker 2: They beat up Caitlin Clark, all the black lives he had.
13:59
Speaker 2: Of course he's white. Sophie Cunningham stepped out. She tries
14:02
Speaker 2: to protect them. There's no question about it. Now, you
14:04
Speaker 2: got the trans whole deal with this league. I mean
14:07
Speaker 2: this league. Honestly, Joe Biningo needs.
14:09
Speaker 3: To go away. So it's absolutely brutal. You know, it's
14:14
Speaker 3: so right. I didn't know Klay Travis had that kind
14:15
Speaker 3: of money. But anyway, but be that be that as
14:19
Speaker 3: it may be, that as it may. You know, why
14:24
Speaker 3: aren't there any Before I even get into the how
14:26
Speaker 3: they treat could you let me say this first? Will
14:28
Speaker 3: I get into the whole trans thing? Okay? All right?
14:30
Speaker 3: Could you imagine the NBA loves Victor win Bayama. He's
14:33
Speaker 3: the new posted child of the NBA. Okay, you watched
14:36
Speaker 3: the playoffs last year against the Necks. You saw how
14:39
Speaker 3: he officials treated this guy. I mean, we got no calls.
14:41
Speaker 3: They had Kaul Anthony Towns and trout foul trubble every game.
14:44
Speaker 3: It was. It was an absolute joke. They love when Byama.
14:48
Speaker 3: They put him on the cover of their NBA you know,
14:50
Speaker 3: it's Madden Game, whatever the hell you want to call it. Okay,
14:52
Speaker 3: you love them. Could you imagine the you know, the NBA.
14:56
Speaker 3: You know, whether it was when Biama, whether it was
14:58
Speaker 3: Michael Jordan, whoever, a great being treated the way Caitlyn
15:02
Speaker 3: Clark gets treated in the WNBA.
15:04
Speaker 2: Could you imagine, wow, wow, Well hold on a second,
15:07
Speaker 2: because there was a white star in the NBA who
15:10
Speaker 2: took a little bit of that. His name was Larry Bird.
15:12
Speaker 2: Now she's white, Caitlyn Clark, Now, no, no, that's the problem.
15:15
Speaker 2: It's not that she's a great fighter. She's white. Well,
15:18
Speaker 2: Larry Bird went a little bit of that too, thank god,
15:20
Speaker 2: not as bad, and you would think twenty twenty six
15:23
Speaker 2: we'd be pasted that. So there was a little bit
15:25
Speaker 2: of that. But you're right, she's the best player in
15:27
Speaker 2: the league and she gets her ass kicked every night.
15:30
Speaker 3: Every night. Of course, bro, they don't like her because
15:33
Speaker 3: she's white and she's straight. Let's be honest, let's throw
15:36
Speaker 3: that in there too. I mean, true, that's true. There's
15:38
Speaker 3: no question about that. There's no question. But going back
15:41
Speaker 3: to this other thing about the WNBA. Okay, so everybody
15:45
Speaker 3: wants inclusivity. I think the coach of the Fever had
15:48
Speaker 3: something about we support trans you know whatever, women, men, whatever, Okay,
15:52
Speaker 3: So maybe with the league. I don't see any trans
15:56
Speaker 3: women okay in the WNBA yet, So maybe that's what
15:59
Speaker 3: they need. Maybe they need a few in there who
16:02
Speaker 3: would come in and probably dominate the league. Right, let's
16:06
Speaker 3: be honest, probably come in and dominate. Maybe is that
16:09
Speaker 3: what they want? Do they want? Do they really want
16:12
Speaker 3: trans women? Will call them women playing in the w
16:15
Speaker 3: n B. A is that what the league wants?
16:17
Speaker 2: They think they do, And here comes Talls, hopefully with
16:19
Speaker 2: a wig and lookout.
16:22
Speaker 3: Exactly right, exactly, that's all you need. So a big guy,
16:25
Speaker 3: some guy that could really play right, maybe maybe an
16:27
Speaker 3: NBA player who isn't that very good in the NBA.
16:30
Speaker 3: Say you know what, I'll identify as a woman for
16:32
Speaker 3: a while and I'll go I'll go into the w
16:35
Speaker 3: NBA and dominate. Is that what? Is that what they want? Yeah?
16:38
Speaker 2: Basically yeah, I mean it's.
16:39
Speaker 3: It's absolutely ridiculous. And I love this girl, Sophie Cunningham,
16:42
Speaker 3: like you give her all the credit in the world
16:44
Speaker 3: that she's also extremely attractive. I I you know, so
16:47
Speaker 3: that no doubt this girl is gonna she don't need
16:49
Speaker 3: to the fact, neither does Caitlin. Neither of them really
16:52
Speaker 3: need the w NBA. What they should do is get
16:55
Speaker 3: the hell out of it. Maybe go play in Europe
16:57
Speaker 3: would be appreciated, whatever, whatever. Okay, I know they're making
17:00
Speaker 3: money off the court and all of that. And and
17:03
Speaker 3: how about the fact the top player in the w NBA,
17:06
Speaker 3: and I think it's Adriel Wilson. I think she's the
17:08
Speaker 3: most is the highest paid player. I think she's making
17:10
Speaker 3: a million dollars a year.
17:11
Speaker 2: I think she's in Las Vegas who won the championship.
17:14
Speaker 3: Right, a million dollars a year, which is nothing in
17:16
Speaker 3: professional sports. As you know, I mean, that's the you know,
17:18
Speaker 3: that's the twenty twenty fifth player on or the last
17:21
Speaker 3: guy in an NBA roster's making a million dollars a year.
17:24
Speaker 3: I mean, let's be honest about it. You know, they
17:27
Speaker 3: finally are making a little money. And now this is
17:30
Speaker 3: what you get. And where would they be without the
17:33
Speaker 3: NBA bro without the NBA funding them, where would they be? No?
17:37
Speaker 3: What what guy? What streat guy is watching that league?
17:42
Speaker 2: Nobody, nobody with it.
17:44
Speaker 3: And I don't even think they want straight men watching it.
17:47
Speaker 3: I don't even think they want that. I remember seeing
17:49
Speaker 3: I forget who the girl was. There's a number of
17:51
Speaker 3: years ago she wrote something, we don't watch streat men
17:54
Speaker 3: watching our game. We don't need you. Are you serious?
17:59
Speaker 3: Come on and I and let me let me also
18:01
Speaker 3: say this to Sid I watched I like watching women's
18:05
Speaker 3: college basketball. Okay, I watch it. I get into a Yukon,
18:08
Speaker 3: the Yukon women South Carolina. I don't love down Staley,
18:11
Speaker 3: but I like watching a team. They're always good, you know.
18:14
Speaker 3: I like watching the Women's College many.
18:16
Speaker 2: Years, Tennessee you with Pat Summit for many years, right
18:20
Speaker 2: when she was there.
18:21
Speaker 3: Now I'll show you what. I can't think of her
18:23
Speaker 3: name now, the coach down there, she was she was
18:27
Speaker 3: at bail or two one there whatever. I like watching
18:30
Speaker 3: the women w n b A. You couldn't pay me
18:33
Speaker 3: enough money to watch that. I know you really, And
18:36
Speaker 3: it's a joke. And they're making themselves into even more
18:39
Speaker 3: of a joke. I mean, can you be Oh god,
18:43
Speaker 3: I don't know what else to say. Can I say
18:45
Speaker 3: one more thing too? You know people have said, you know, look,
18:48
Speaker 3: you're a sports guy, you shouldn't get involved in politics. Well,
18:52
Speaker 3: unfortunately sports is all about politics now, sid I mean
18:57
Speaker 3: right or wrong?
18:57
Speaker 2: Well, listen, that's why I've been so successful. It's not
19:00
Speaker 2: a big deal. I'm not the only one. I'm not
19:02
Speaker 2: going to look at Clay Travis. Clay Travis is a
19:04
Speaker 2: sports guy. He's doing phenomenally. Well, there's a lot of
19:07
Speaker 2: us now. Stephen A. Smith is doing a lot. He
19:10
Speaker 2: was on my show here yesterday.
19:11
Speaker 3: He was politics.
19:13
Speaker 2: Yes, he was on this show yesterday he was terrific.
19:16
Speaker 2: So there is a a very natural cross section. People
19:19
Speaker 2: go to me, how was the transition so easy? I said,
19:22
Speaker 2: it's the same thing. Just substitute President Trump for the Giants.
19:26
Speaker 2: Same thing, right, same passion, same hatred. I hate the Jets,
19:31
Speaker 2: I hate the Democrats. It's the same thing, right. But
19:34
Speaker 2: I love you and you're great again. You're always great.
19:36
Speaker 3: God, this is one of the Jets every year, I know.
19:39
Speaker 2: But I don't really hate the Jags, mind.
19:40
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't hate the Giants. I don't hate
19:42
Speaker 3: the Giants.
19:42
Speaker 2: I don't hate the Jets either.
19:44
Speaker 3: I don't know. I hate, you know, I hate. I
19:45
Speaker 3: actually hate my teams more the match. The Jets give
19:51
Speaker 3: me a jects.
19:52
Speaker 2: It's true.
19:53
Speaker 3: A championship. I still can't believe it. But whatever, you
19:56
Speaker 3: know what I mean, Bro, I don't my teams aggravate
19:59
