- 3:57corner. Basketball hockey.
- 3:59This is the best time for sports, ladies and gentlemen.

- 4:10enough times ladies and gentlemen, it just shows you how
- 4:13tired I absolutely am throughout the last couple of days.
- 4:17I've been dealing with a lot of garbage, my sisters obviously
- 4:20back, she's no longer in the hospital.
- 4:23So thank God, my sister is fine, she's taking care of herself,
- 4:26she's seeing all these different specialist for a hard.
- 4:29I've been worried about her so it's been a little bit crazy for
- 4:32me. The fact that I'm here, I just,
- 4:34I think God that I'm here and my sister still here because a lot
- 4:38of thoughts in my mind that you probably would have dealt with a
- 4:42lot worse things over the next last couple of weeks especially
- 4:45with all the stuff that I've heard she's been going through.
- 4:48So I'm happy, my heart goes out to my family and and my my Nate
- 4:53my nieces and my nephew that has been dealing with this over the
- 4:56last couple of weeks job. How are you?
- 5:00I'm good now Grisham just let off the game with the Homer like
- 5:04again. So not too bad.
- 5:06Yeah. Hopefully we got the last day of
- 5:09of warm. We're gonna be in the 70s here
- 5:11in a few days. So the Jekalyn hide of the good
- 5:15old Nebraska weather. But yeah, they're not.
- 5:17Everything's good man. It's just another day.
- 5:20Son, had his first day at college today and first first
- 5:24practice for baseball so getting him going and Getting all that
- 5:29exciting stuff. Is that exciting going back to
- 5:32college? I am never excited.
- 5:33When I have to go back to school, I know a lot of people
- 5:36sitting here today and say, oh, I can't wait to go back to
- 5:38school, I can't wait to go to English, in science and math, oh
- 5:42my God, physical education, I did to me.
- 5:44School was not my thing. I never ever was excited going
- 5:49back to school except maybe getting on a baseball field.
- 5:52If that's why you're going back to school.
- 5:53A lot of these kids can't wait to go back to school because
- 5:56they want to play football. They're playing D1, D2 D3.
- 5:59And that's why they're there. They're not there for the
- 6:01education. They're there to play sports and
- 6:04eventually, hopefully be drafted.
- 6:05Now, if I don't know your son, is he a college fan?
- 6:09Is he a school fan? I don't know.
- 6:10But it's never exciting. When I know I have to go back to
- 6:13school and have to deal with. Professors, I got to deal with
- 6:15riding papers and, and doing anything of that magnitude that
- 6:19I stay the hell away from. I am not going to enjoy any bit
- 6:23of that over the last couple of years.
- 6:25I have, I've watched my girlfriend.
- 6:28Go through all that situation going through, nursing school
- 6:31and, and dealing with all the papers that she has to write.
- 6:35And that long nights and staying up and listening to her
- 6:38complaining, the studio that she needs quiet.
- 6:42I can't watch television. I gotta go out to my car
- 6:44watching football games, baseball games, while she is
- 6:47studying and the studio. Well, the doors are closed and
- 6:50it's absolutely silent and sound proof.
- 6:53She didn't care. So it was never fun dealing with
- 6:56that and watching her go through it.
- 6:58So, to me, school is never fun when I have to worry about
- 7:02studying, or doing any of that stuff.
- 7:04So I I understand what you're saying, I guess it's good.
- 7:07Maybe your son is in, is one of those School rats.
- 7:10So, are they call them? Those are bookworms.
- 7:13I I'm definitely not. I just, it just comes super easy
- 7:17to him. Not he was, he was on the well,
- 7:20they call it, the president listened to school, so, which is
- 7:22like the Dean's List. But no, yeah he's I mean he's
- 7:26he's not excited about conditioning at 7 a.m. but yeah,
- 7:29just getting back, he's got his own, he's got his own place so
- 7:31he's excited about that. So yeah, he's, you know, gets
- 7:36gets a little bit more freedom. I mean, he's Got his own
- 7:39Freedom. He's kind of had one year of it
- 7:41but now he's got his own space so we'll see if he actually
- 7:44cleans it. So does it really matter?
- 7:45Honestly his own space. He always had his own space,
- 7:48even when he was living with you, he could do whatever you
- 7:51want. No, but I mean, I got but like,
- 7:53I understand space like he's, it's not like he's, you know,
- 7:56downstairs or across the hall or in the kitchen or, you know,
- 8:00whatever, like he's, he's a way away.
- 8:02So it's not like I can just here's the problem.
- 8:04If you ever gone to dorms and I I've been to many different
- 8:08dorms over the years. Getting a chance to visit my
- 8:10friends. The dorms are like like
- 8:12rectangle, you barely can walk in it.
- 8:15You have a roommate, one roommate's, on the other side.
- 8:18You're on the other side of the, the room and the rooms.
- 8:21Not even that big. It's like 10 by 10.
- 8:22Most of these. These these places that you stay
- 8:26at these dorms. So unless you're renting out a
- 8:28house or Dad's spending the money and making sure that his
- 8:32son or his friends are taking care of and they're they're
- 8:35enjoying themselves with a three bedroom house with Bathroom.
- 8:39I don't know, the last dorm room you've been in but my son.
- 8:42They they had three TVs. Four desks a walk-in, a little
- 8:47Pantry. I've been to the Norris dorm
- 8:50rooms have switched a lot like they don't have keys anymore.
- 8:53Everything is like via than an app on their phone, the app or
- 8:57they have cards. Now let's say they have
- 8:59housekeepers that come in and clean the bathroom well, so
- 9:02wherever you see wherever he's going to.
- 9:05What is it? Hutchinson, where is he going
- 9:07hot? Yeah, I mean I, when I was well,
- 9:11I experience going away. I have that.
- 9:13No, no. I, I mean, I fish was a college
- 9:18student, didn't he had an opportunity to and he's a
- 9:21bookworm obviously you know that fish has an economics degree and
- 9:25master's degree and and all that other crap.
- 9:28And I'm sure he enjoyed going to school and enjoying to listen to
- 9:32the professors lectures and three-hour lectures and riding
- 9:35papers about it. That's not something that I
- 9:37enjoyed and That's one of the reasons why I stayed away from
- 9:41those those opportunities. I just wanted to get on the ice.
- 9:44So I just wanted to get on a baseball field or football field
- 9:47and and do what I do best and that's entertain people and
- 9:50myself when it comes to Athletics, I never cared about
- 9:53school and that was the one thing that I never enjoyed even
- 9:56going to high school. I miss high school.
- 9:58Now, everybody that sits here today, listening to us right
- 10:01now, I'm sure people go back by the way.
- 10:03Kids listening. Don't don't listen to a word.
- 10:06He just said, by the way, enjoy school.
- 10:07Because if you don't go to school, you can't play.
- 10:09So don't listen. I'm not saying not to go to
- 10:12school. That's not what I'm saying.
- 10:14Student athlete, not athletes student, it's doing right?
- 10:19It's athlete student. You ask anybody.
- 10:21That's playing D1 football or D1 basketball or D1.
- 10:25Hockey, they're there. For one reason, 98 to 99% of
- 10:29high school athletes. Don't play D1 Sports.
- 10:32That's not what I'm then 90 to 95.
- 10:36Okay, stop. Put your Is stupid.
- 10:39I don't know, four function calculator.
- 10:44I I don't care. I, I don't care about the
- 10:46mathematical equation to what people do when they go to school
- 10:49and enjoying themselves, the math says, stay the hell away
- 10:53from it. If you enjoy School, enjoy it.
- 10:56If you're playing sports, go and play sports and enjoy your lives
- 11:00because you only live one of them.
- 11:01And how many there are many people that don't live a long
- 11:04lasting life. I've I've seen many of my
- 11:06friends die at a very young age and now obviously things have
- 11:10happened over the years and and the experience is that I have
- 11:14lived and seen. It's a little bit more than most
- 11:17people on this show. I'm the oldest on the Elder of
- 11:20the show, I'm 43 years old. So I I've seen a little bit more
- 11:23than a lot of you guys, but nevertheless, I'm not saying
- 11:26that I'm better than you because I'm a little bit older than you,
- 11:29but I understand that school is important.
- 11:32If you want to be a certain doctor or you want to be a
- 11:36lawyer or if you want to be a school teacher.
- 11:38But if you want to be a business owner, you don't need school.
- 11:41If you want to be, you know what, you need arrow and it's
- 11:45and you're right. Begin the truth.
- 11:46You're right to a degree is a teacher.
- 11:47You're not really allowed to say the richest people in the world.
- 11:51If you go back and you look at some of the guys, Steve Jobs,
- 11:55did he finish school? I mean honestly if we go back
- 11:59and look at all the great smart people in this world that
- 12:03created the atom bomb. You know, I'm talking about or
- 12:06any of these different people that we have spoken about in the
- 12:10past of History. Not all of them finished
- 12:12College. Not all of them went, it's not
- 12:15about like finishing school in my opinion.
- 12:17I think it's just people don't realize, it's a lot more about
- 12:20your job experience then you know how many classes you took
- 12:23in something? Right.
- 12:24Absolutely true. You know now and I think that's
- 12:27what you're saying. Errol is not that that everyone
- 12:30should be a dumb Meathead jock. But on the other hand it's
- 12:34really not the only thing and people just waste their lives.
- 12:37You know, work on paper, stressing themselves out doing
- 12:40jobs that are just constant paperwork, paperwork paperwork
- 12:43and you know, life happens and to your plans and sometimes that
- 12:47would be a shame if you wasted your whole life doing stuff like
- 12:50that, I understand what you're saying.
- 12:51That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying not to go to
- 12:52school. If you enjoy school and enjoy it
- 12:54but you have to go to school if you want to play D1.
- 12:57And baseball basketball. You have to go to class and do
- 13:00what you have to do to get through that, to get through the
- 13:04program that you want to play. So, I understand the whole
- 13:07situation of going to college, but most kids that are playing
- 13:10D1, baseball, basketball football, or any of the sports,
- 13:13they're going to play sports. They're really not going for the
- 13:17education. Most of those kids that are
- 13:18playing professional sports, don't even finish the college
- 13:21education. Most of them don't that some of
- 13:23them go back. I'm not saying that they don't,
- 13:25but a lot of them don't they they're there strictly to get
- 13:29through the year or two years or however long you need to get
- 13:33through college to go and play professional sports.
- 13:36That's all I'm saying at 8:45. We will be talking to Brewers
- 13:40pitcher and current ESPN baseball.
- 13:43Analyst Kyle Peterson will be joining us, and that'll be fun.
- 13:47Kyle, this is the first time Kyle's been on the show, that's
- 13:49when a job is gets. So, I'm very interested to hear
- 13:52what Kyle is doing now, with ESPN.
- 13:54So that'll be fun. 9:45, we'll be talking Co-founder of all 22
- 13:59fantasy football Ricardo. He's been on our show before.
- 14:02I'm sure he's gonna talk about fantasy football and and I think
- 14:06he's a Cowboy fan if I'm not mistaken.
- 14:07I know. So we'll get into the Cowboys
- 14:10because I definitely got finished with the Netflix
- 14:13programming. It was fantastic and America's
- 14:17team so it was great. It was really really fantastic
- 14:21very well put together so congratulations to Jerry Jones.
- 14:24I really think I look and I will get into the program.
- 14:28I just want to say something before we get into it.
- 14:29I want to tell you something and this is something that really
- 14:32interests me more than anything about that program.
- 14:35Jerry Jones and getting to know a little bit about Jerry Jones
- 14:39and how he made his money in and how he really put the Cowboys
- 14:43together from 1989, all the way through and really has changed
- 14:48football if you look at professional sports.
- 14:50Now, the only two people, the two owners that really stand out
- 14:53for the change of sponsorships and Advertising and bringing so
- 14:58much money to their respectable Sports is George Steinbrenner.
- 15:05And the one and only Jerry Jones, those are the two guys
- 15:08and there were two very close, guys.
- 15:09They were two friends before George Steinbrenner went and now
- 15:13Jerry Jones is in his 80s. He's 86 or whatever. 88 years
- 15:16old now, and he's at the tail end of his life.
- 15:19And when he goes football, is going to miss one of the best
- 15:22and one of the most interesting Pioneers in NFL history.
- 15:26So I just want to say that. It's so very important to
- 15:29understand how important Jerry Jones has been to NFL and and
- 15:33professional sports when it comes to endorsements and
- 15:36sponsorships man for. Did you know that they did like
- 15:40when they opened the new stadium?
- 15:41The like the Legends? Yes or whatever.
- 15:43Yeah that was that was Jerry and George.
- 15:46Oh I know and Jerry Jerry and George were very very close when
- 15:49it came to TV deals and and George Steinbrenner was the
- 15:52first person to kind of create a television television, for a
- 15:57television channel, for his own sports team, and the Yes,
- 16:01Network. After George Steinbrenner, did
- 16:03it Jerry started to Bring it to fruition when it came to the NFL
- 16:07and now all the NFL teams have their own channels and and
- 16:11sports channels. So it's changed the game, it's
- 16:13changed the way money is being made through sponsorships and
- 16:17advertisements. That's all I'm going to say
- 16:18Jerry Jones. I wanted the founders of it.
- 16:20So, a man shot. I gotta shout out steak egg
- 16:23Master. Appreciate you listening.
- 16:24I think I said that, right. But appreciate, you know,
- 16:27Mannford yes, discusses realignment and expansion
- 16:31baseball. Commissioner Rob, Manford
- 16:34discusses Geographic realignment and expansion on ESPN.
- 16:38Sunday night baseball this past weekend.
- 16:40Mannford explained that the geographic realignment could
- 16:45help save a lot and where and tear of players do to travel and
- 16:50all. So be better for regional
- 16:53markets since teams would rarely start late for East Coast
- 16:57audiences or early for those on the west coast USA.
- 17:01Today is Bob Knight and Gail reports that Nash Nashville is a
- 17:05City that wants a MLB franchise that and Fox Sports, says that
- 17:09Charlotte and Portland would make most sense for manford's
- 17:14plan to add multiple teams of each Coast.
- 17:17Mats announcer, Howie, Rose blasted the idea on X saying,
- 17:24this is what I've been telling you, it's an evitable for quite
- 17:29a while. Now, the American League and the
- 17:31national league will seize to exist as we know them.
- 17:34It's the last move. Before the total Destruction of
- 17:38the Traditions that made baseball great Yankees and also
- 17:41Michael Kay supported Mannford explaining, it would eliminate
- 17:44the need for interleague play since the Rivalry.
- 17:48Now would be in the same division while making All Star
- 17:52Games mean something again. All though, nothing is planned
- 17:57immediately as the MLB wants to resolve the raise and a stadium
- 18:01issues, Geographic, realignment and expansion.
- 18:05Are now publicly on manford's and MLB's agenda, you know, it's
- 18:10interesting and the story is going to, obviously, grow legs
- 18:13as we move forward over the next couple of months, and really the
- 18:16next couple of years, Rob manford's going to be running
- 18:20baseball for at least another four more years.
- 18:22And Rob Manford wants to put baseball as the lead Sport, and,
- 18:28and trade and change the generational type of game that
- 18:31it's been and baseball has been Center Stage over the last
- 18:35couple of years and trying to grow their product.
- 18:38Now, obviously, in the 90s with the, the situation, and the
- 18:43breakdown of what happened, with the strike it affected baseball,
- 18:47it affected the growth of baseball and then steroids came
- 18:50out. And, and then you saw Mark
- 18:51McGwire and Sammy Sosa Barry Bonds and, and the steroid era
- 18:55was there, and now it's different.
- 18:56Now, you look at the traditional way of where the, where baseball
- 18:59is trying to recreate itself and change rules and change
- 19:03different things. That's going to help the game or
- 19:06change the game in many different ways.
- 19:08I think that manfred's doing things a little bit different
- 19:12than other sports and other Commissioners in in sports Gary
- 19:16Bettman. Did something very original and
- 19:18very different when it came to the NHL, he had the lottery.
- 19:21He put the lottery center stage this past year, for hockey fans
- 19:26to check out and see how they're picking and how they're they're
- 19:29Lottery falls into place and it's very different.
- 19:32Now, when it comes to watching these kind of different things
- 19:35and and bring baseball, and bring football and hockey to
- 19:39center stage, and trying to bring the market a little bit
- 19:42more and drive, more money to the sports.
- 19:44The thing is, when you're changing something that's been
- 19:47around for a long, long time, that's worked a long long time.
- 19:50It probably will change the different subscriptions in
- 19:55different ways that money could be brought to the game.
- 19:58And I understand the real line and I understand what he's
- 20:01trying to do. If you have obviously, you have
- 20:03a Metropolitan Division. And you have the Yankees and the
- 20:06Mets in the same division, being that it's New York and then you
- 20:08have the LA the LA the LA Angels LA Dodgers, the San Francisco
- 20:12Giants, all these different West Coast teams playing at the same
- 20:16time playing in the same you know conference it could help.
- 20:20Obviously young young kids from going to school or kids or
- 20:25parents play working working. Working at certain times, get a
- 20:28chance to check out the their sports teams or their favorite
- 20:32players. I understand everything that Rob
- 20:34manfred's, trying to bring to the Forefront, how he rose is
- 20:37made a lot of interesting thoughts when it came when it
- 20:40comes to baseball and Michael. Caine, how are you?
- 20:42How are you Rose? How he rose work saying?
- 20:44He's done so many things for the New York Mets and Michael Kay
- 20:47works for the New York Yankees, Michael Keith thinks he knows
- 20:49everything and Michael Kay always comes out and says things
- 20:51that kind of throw you off on the way the league works.
- 20:54And and how generational thoughts of where the Yankees
- 20:58are going to be in the future and where the Yankees could
- 21:00really put themselves center stage in the future.
- 21:03I think that The realignment of baseball is unique and
- 21:08different, I don't know if it's going to help the game of
- 21:11baseball. Baseball is always trying to
- 21:13redefine itself. I don't get it.
- 21:14I I know Ron, panford wants to stamp his name to it just like
- 21:18Bud selig stamped his name to baseball and when it came to the
- 21:22steroid era and and not letting these guys go to the Hall of
- 21:25Fame Bud. Ceiling is sitting very pretty
- 21:27in the Hall of Fame right now as Rob, man for took over for the
- 21:31league, and now changing rules and trying to redefine the game
- 21:33of baseball for for what he believes baseball.
- 21:36Should be and how it's going to drive youngsters to want to go
- 21:39and play baseball and choose baseball, over football.
- 21:42And we seen that many many times over the last couple of years.
- 21:45When these different Commissioners are trying to
- 21:48redefine their Sports sponsorships and advertisements
- 21:51are really changing the game. It's bringing the game more
- 21:54money and more revenue and with the new CBA rules with and and
- 21:59laws that they are bringing to the Forefront with TV deals and
- 22:02all the different things that baseball has had over.
- 22:04The last couple of years, you think that with the money that
- 22:08is there and and what they're trying to drive for the money
- 22:12and and with all the players and, you know, we were just
- 22:15talking about this the other day with the players union, the
- 22:18players union is never going to have a salary cap.
- 22:20Baseball is never going to have a salary cap because the players
- 22:23union will never allow it. Now, there's so much being
- 22:26invested into these players. She have a 760 million dollar
- 22:30player in one Soto. Eventually we're gonna have a
- 22:33billion dollar player. Now, we have deferred money and
- 22:35guys that are making that kind of money, a freedmen is making
- 22:38money. That's deferred.
- 22:39You have all these Mookie Betts and all these players from the
- 22:42LA, Dodgers making money, but they're not making money because
- 22:45it's deferred money, so they can bring more players to their
- 22:48organization and they can ride championships.
- 22:51All the way to the end. The problem right now in with
- 22:54baseball is Rob, Manford is spinning the wheel and making
- 22:57the deal. I don't know how this is going
- 22:59to change the game, I don't know how this is gonna make the game
- 23:01better. It's going to ruin the game.
- 23:03I have In this many, many times. And in sports football, remember
- 23:08football, in the 90s, you can pull on the the defensive
- 23:12players can pull on the wide receivers.
- 23:14You can play man-to-man and and pull them and, and yank on them
- 23:18on the second with the secondary.
- 23:20Now, if you put your hands on the wide receiver, you're gonna
- 23:22get a penalty of 15 yard penalty, it ruins the game.
- 23:25It's become a more offensive game basketball.
- 23:27You used to be able to put your hands defensively on a player
- 23:31and defend. Somebody up front in the 90s and
- 23:35play that man to man, that that really tight defense.
- 23:38You can't do that anymore. If you do that, they these guys
- 23:41are going to go to the foul line.
- 23:42You have LeBron James complaining.
- 23:43You have James Harden, complaining.
- 23:45The game is changing. I understand when when the
- 23:48game's changing there's more money, there's more business.
- 23:50They're trying to read a fine and spin the wheel and make the
- 23:53deal. I understand that I think I and
- 23:55I get what they're trying to do. I get what Ramen for is trying
- 23:59to do where there's more more change.
- 24:02There's more money and when when Baseball is looking to get more
- 24:06games being seen by these young fans, the college fans, these
- 24:11high school fans. I understand kids are going to
- 24:14bed early. In the east coast and the West
- 24:17Coast kids are going to bed early.
- 24:18They got to go to school so you know I know me and Java we're
- 24:22talking about this offset that. Nobody got a chance to see how
- 24:25great Buster Posey was and Buster Posey playing in La here
- 24:28on the East Coast. She never gonna get a chance to
- 24:30see him because he played at 10 11:00 at night, okay.
- 24:33So what are you gonna do? You're gonna you're gonna make a
- 24:36conference of La teams or West Coast teams.
- 24:38How is that going to change the way people and the East Coast
- 24:42are going to get a chance to see those players?
- 24:44That's my question here. I understand what they're trying
- 24:47to do, and what romance for trying to say and and really
- 24:51spinning the wheel make the deal.
- 24:52I think they should bring in franchisees new franchise, why?
- 24:55Because it brings in more revenue and if it brings more
- 24:58Revenue, it brings more opportunity and I that makes
- 25:01sense. Nashville, Charlotte Portland,
- 25:03wherever they decide to bring in a new baseball team.
- 25:06Look at the NHL, the NHL has been doing that over the last
- 25:09couple of years, they brought in Seattle.
- 25:11Now, we're going to probably see another hockey team as Gary
- 25:14Batman's been. Speaking about bringing in
- 25:16another hockey team for the near future, this is going to happen
- 25:20and that's what these two, these commissions are trying to do
- 25:23where there's more teams and more places to build those
- 25:26teams. There's more revenue and that
- 25:28brings in more profit sharing for the players more profit
- 25:31sharing for the owners. But who is this benefiting?
- 25:34Is it defending benefiting the players is it or is it
- 25:37benefiting the owners or is it benefiting more money being
- 25:40brought in to the league? That's the question and I again
- 25:43we can go back and say this and we can we can speak about this
- 25:46about. Well this is going to help the
- 25:48players. This is gonna double headers and
- 25:50and maybe the Mets in the Yankees could play more and a
- 25:53regular season if they're playing in the same Metropolitan
- 25:55Division. So they'll play 14 games instead
- 25:58of four games and Yankee. And Met fans are going to want
- 26:00to see that that's fine. And I guess that that's a
- 26:04beneficial thing. If you're a New York fan but how
- 26:06does this benefit the LA fan? I want to see.
- 26:09I want to see the Dodgers in the Yankees play 14 times in a
- 26:13season well because the Yankees The east coast and the Dodgers
- 26:16on the west coast. We're only going to see that
- 26:18three times or four times in a season.
- 26:19I I want to see the best teams play against one another.
- 26:23I want to see the the highly profiled teams like the Dodgers
- 26:27and the Red Sox and the Yankees play against one another.
- 26:30I don't want to see the Kansas City Royals when they're not
- 26:32going about going deep. Dig deep into their pockets and
- 26:36spend the money after their players become free agents and
- 26:39let them go to the Yankees and go to the Red Sox.
- 26:41Does anybody want to see the candy City Royals play the LA
- 26:44Dodgers? 14 times.
- 26:45Nobody wants to see that. And the same thing goes to the
- 26:49Baltimore Orioles, the Bulldog Orioles, over the last couple of
- 26:53years. Have some, of the best young,
- 26:54highly profiled Big Time. Bats in baseball but guess what?
- 26:59They're the Baltimore Orioles. Does anybody want to watch the
- 27:02Baltimore Orioles play? That's the facts.
- 27:05And then you go back and we're trying to figure out how this is
- 27:08going to work. And, and again, this is gonna
- 27:10happen. Rob Manford is going to make
- 27:12this happen, just like Gary Bettman over the last couple of
- 27:15years, now making the Nets bigger and making the goalie
- 27:18pads bigger and make it go. Now, being that the Nets are
- 27:21bigger and the Isis longer, and you can't be, you can't be
- 27:26smaller than six foot two. I spoke in about, I spoke in
- 27:30with this, with Mike Richter and John Van beest for John Van
- 27:32beest Brooks five foot nine, five foot ten at the least and
- 27:36then you have Mike Richter who's five foot 11, maybe six foot.
- 27:40We're never gonna see a six foot gold tender.
- 27:42Again, there's no way because of the Nets the way that the game
- 27:46is played in the way there there.
- 27:48They're changing the rules of the game.
- 27:49And and again, is it better for the fan?
- 27:53Or is it better for the leak? Is it better for the players, or
- 27:57is it better for the owners? Now, the owners are making
- 27:59money. Out of her fist there making
- 28:02billions and billions of dollars.
- 28:03They're still going to be rich. The players are the ones that
- 28:07are complaining about. Well, I and he was another thing
- 28:10before I get into that, the players love to travel The
- 28:16Yankees, I've heard this many many times.
- 28:18I've talked to Johnny, Damon off are in a conversation.
- 28:21Do you like to travel to Seattle?
- 28:23Do you like to travel to La? And he says it's a, it's a great
- 28:26experience and get a chance to see these different cities and
- 28:29and get a chance to see the different climates and a
- 28:32different places that they get to see over the, you know, over
- 28:35the years of playing baseball. And are they going to like,
- 28:39where they're gonna, they're not gonna be able to travel 7/8
- 28:42times a year, if they're playing on the East Coast are is it is
- 28:45it going to work that way where players are going to greet this?
- 28:48And the players union has to agree to this too.
- 28:50It's got a work both ways and Rob Manford.
- 28:53He is trying to make a statement just like Bud.
- 28:56Sealing had tried to make a statement at the end of his
- 28:59career. And again, does this benefit
- 29:02baseball, that is the thing and I don't think it does any change
- 29:06where a sportsman around for over 100 years, it's worked so
- 29:10many times over and getting a chance to see.
- 29:13Well, I didn't get a chance to see babe.
- 29:15Ruth and Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle they played the game, the
- 29:18way they played the game, the way it was built.
- 29:20And now you have the game where there's there's bags, the size
- 29:24of pizza boxes and and the bags are closer.
- 29:27And and the way they, you can't shift anymore, you can't do
- 29:31this, you can't do that. You have a pitching clock, they
- 29:34didn't have that in the in the 1960s and 1950s, they didn't
- 29:37even have that in 1980s. So, how does this benefit
- 29:40baseball? Well, it speeds up the game.
- 29:42Well, guess what? If it speeds up the game, are
- 29:45people buying more beer? Are people buying and spending
- 29:48more money on hot dogs or sausages or whatever the hell
- 29:52they're spending their money on when they're going to bowl
- 29:53games. I heard that I I get what
- 29:56they're trying to do. But again, you want to make as
- 29:59much profit as you possibly can as a professional leak.
- 30:03So, how does that help baseball? When you're losing money, you
- 30:07are losing money. And here's another thing.
- 30:09The way baseball works over the last couple of years, and the
- 30:13way they're, they've changed these different rules and, and
- 30:16trying to make their own. They want to stamp their own,
- 30:19you know, price to their their product.
- 30:22Here's the thing that really turns me off about the game of
- 30:25baseball and that is the way they're changing baseballs.
- 30:29Look at, look at how many, how many baseball players have we
- 30:32spoken to over the last couple of years that have said, the
- 30:35Bulls are completely different every year.
- 30:37The seams are different job of your, your picture.
- 30:40I you've said it baseballs are different.
- 30:43There are different than they were when you were pitching,
- 30:45they're lighter. They're heavier, they're they're
- 30:47you. They're easier to hit home runs
- 30:50with. I don't understand why they're
- 30:52changing the game. It's worked for so many years
- 30:55for hundreds of years and now all of a sudden, hey, you know
- 30:59what, this is better for the league.
- 31:00It's better for the, the fan to go and get a chance to see their
- 31:03favorite player, or it's better for the the owner's to make more
- 31:08money because it makes more sense of Shifting, conferences
- 31:10and league. And, and the way the leak is
- 31:13played, I don't agree with anything that Ramen for his done
- 31:17over the last couple of years since he's taking over, but
- 31:20ceiling, I'd give him a, I wouldn't even give it.
- 31:23I give him a D minus. I wouldn't give him a mouth
- 31:24because he hasn't done a, I almost gave him a name on it's
- 31:27about, but I, he is a D minus kind of A commissioner because
- 31:31even though there are things that he has done, that's
- 31:33benefited baseball and has brought sponsorships and
- 31:36advertisements to help out bring in more money for the players,
- 31:40he has hurt the game because he's trying to put his stamp to
- 31:43the game where it doesn't make sense.
- 31:45And that to me, is a turn off as a fan of baseball.
- 31:49I've been a Yankee fan my whole life.
- 31:50I've been watching baseball since Don Mattingly Danny total
- 31:53Pat Kelly, Roberto Kelly Pat. I mean every single Mike Stanley
- 31:58as the catcher for the New York Yankees and we could go on and
- 32:01on, and on. And on with Dave forgety,
- 32:03remember him as a pitcher for the New York Yankees, I got a
- 32:06chance to watch. All those Yankee players, play
- 32:08in the 80s and I love the game even though they sucked.
- 32:11I love to watch the New York Yankees.
- 32:13Now I'm watching a Yankee teen, that absolutely blows.
- 32:15Is this gonna help the Yankees out?
- 32:17Is this going to bring in more profit for Joe house?
- 32:20Steinbrenner to go out there and spend more money?
- 32:22No, it's not. It's only going to bring more
- 32:24money at more money to the owners.
- 32:26It's not really helping the players and the players enjoy.
- 32:29Traveling, they love to go to Texas LA and Seattle.
- 32:33I know, because I've had conversations with them.
- 32:36They tell me it's a part of the game.
- 32:38It's been a part of the game forever.
- 32:39So the the transition and thinking that this is going to
- 32:42help the league is absolutely false.
- 32:44I think it's going to make the game worse.
- 32:46Yeah, you also look at the expansion of that you're seeing
- 32:48in other sports too and the way they've had to rearrange and
- 32:51losing rivalries in a sense as well.
- 32:53Because you look at hockey like the Detroit Red Wings when they
- 32:56move for the Eastern Conference lost a lot of great rivalries in
- 32:59the Western Conference that they have at the Blackhawks.
- 33:00Obviously was the biggest one that they had Colorado and the
- 33:03blues and you're cutting that kind of thing with this
- 33:06potential realignment in baseball too Java.
- 33:08You you being a Braves fan like look at this proposal the Fox
- 33:11sports hat, the Braves would be in a division with the Rays.
- 33:13The Marlins and whoever the expansion team is you look at
- 33:16you would lose rivalries with the Mets you lose Rivals with
- 33:19the Phillies that I think even gotten better in the last five
- 33:22years since the race. He was that division Speedy was
- 33:24that was that Charlotte that he semi projected.
- 33:27Right and Charlotte I think is Definitely a likely one as his
- 33:30Nashville. I think that's a possibility if
- 33:32they were at a third and a fourth one too.
- 33:33On the west coast Portland. I mean, they'd have to figure
- 33:36out another one, I guess. Besides that maybe another one
- 33:39in the Mountain West area, I don't really know.
- 33:41But like, I guess the obvious thing that you're looking at
- 33:45here is the fact that they're like when you have American
- 33:48League in National League rivalries that have been around
- 33:50for a while. Because baseball is a sport that
- 33:51has Still mostly, I think old school teams.
- 33:54Not as much of the expansion teams because they did it a
- 33:57little later like football. They have some old school teams
- 34:00but like they're all East Coast teams.
- 34:01I think besides the Rams and the 49ers like everything else is
- 34:04like 60 70s expansion teams at that point baseball.
- 34:07There's some of them that came in the 60s, obviously, but like,
- 34:10they have an expanded since the 90s when the Rockies came in and
- 34:13the Diamondbacks, and the Rays teams like that and the Marlins,
- 34:16but still like most of those teams have rivalries that go
- 34:20back further. Look at the, look at the goodies
- 34:23in the Guardians, they're going into division with the Nationals
- 34:25and the Pirates and the Orioles. So there, any rivalries there?
- 34:27No, like they've had Rivals with the tiger and the twins and
- 34:31teams like that. So I think it doesn't really
- 34:32make a lot of sense and it defeats the purpose too.
- 34:35What they try to 2022, they want the whole league to play
- 34:37everybody, and that's better for the product of what it shows.
- 34:40Like, who you are as a team when you could beat everyone else.
- 34:42Yeah, and Speedy too. It's like and then some people
- 34:46will look at a world. Now you're creating old ones
- 34:49like with the Brewers when they I think they moved in 90 or
- 34:51whatever. So now it's I think you lose
- 34:54more than you gang. And as far as the rivalries per
- 34:58se I just For me, it's you're taking too much like you're
- 35:03already changing this game enough, right?
- 35:05And as a baseball period, I, I agree.
- 35:09Some changes have to be made with the time.
- 35:11I understand that I'm not oblivious to the fact things do
- 35:15change and I and I get it, but also there's still needs to be
- 35:19some sense of tradition and pride of of how long this game's
- 35:23been going and and what this game stands for.
- 35:26And I I get kind of where it's, it comes from as far as the
- 35:32travel and what Maybe the whole. I guess overview of how it would
- 35:39help like and we talked a little bit off are where it's like,
- 35:42okay. Now it may take away from that,
- 35:45you know, Coast to Coast travel in division in the AO like in
- 35:49we've seen that play a part, I remember Mike.
- 35:51So show was screaming about it when we played them in the ALCS
- 35:55and no nine and that's it. That now it eventually ended up
- 35:59taking away the extra off day because now most of the time you
- 36:02can't just use three pictures to get through so it it's obviously
- 36:06not gonna happen. Tomorrow next year, even two
- 36:09years. And it'll be interesting to see.
- 36:13They've been talking about expansion teams in Nashville,
- 36:16going back to Montreal, which I didn't get to play in Montreal,
- 36:19but everybody that played Montreal, loved it and where it
- 36:22just becomes. So, like an arrow like we do
- 36:25like traveling but it's it goes in phases like, we like
- 36:28traveling. Because you're stuck in spring
- 36:30training for so long, then you travel but then only gets like
- 36:33August, you're like all right, I just want to get to the
- 36:35postseason and You know, just be done with it and so that it goes
- 36:40in waves and Ebbs and flows. It's it's awesome.
- 36:42Because you get to see different cultures, you get to see
- 36:44different things that go along with it.
- 36:45But I just, I don't know if this in the, if there's more Pros
- 36:51than cons throughout the like, from top to bottom obviously, is
- 36:55it going to create you know, new rivalries?
- 36:58Yes. Do and my fan of new rivalries
- 37:01not really. I like the old school ones where
- 37:03you know really benefit on that though.
- 37:06So like maybe maybe the Brewers are one of those teams.
- 37:08Like now with the Cubs in the Cardinals, probably more than
- 37:10they had in the American League with the.
- 37:11Maybe the Twins were the only one of the time.
- 37:14Yeah, so I it's it becomes, you know and and some of those they
- 37:19were talking about on it'll be.com is just like some of
- 37:22them. Now, the travel becomes a little
- 37:23bit better. Obviously for Seattle, it sucks
- 37:26Seattle's closest, literally game is two and a half hours
- 37:29away. Like they, they have the most
- 37:31plain hours of anybody, right? and so, it it does create some
- 37:38Better travel, I guess. Expenses or travel time or what
- 37:45have you for some teams. But I don't think the pros
- 37:48outweigh the cons of tradition of the game of baseball and
- 37:53rivalries and Are you doing it just to make a buck or like
- 37:57Errol said, are you doing it to leave your mark?
- 37:59And to say you did something like you, you did it because
- 38:03it's now when they think about the new realignment, my name is
- 38:09attached to it. So I I don't know if I don't
- 38:12like, I don't like the way baseball in Roman for trying to
- 38:15spin the wheel and and try to make a new deal with.
- 38:18So the devil and I think baseball is so important to the
- 38:23way Sports has really grown. We look at baseball, baseball's
- 38:27been around longer than any other sport.
- 38:29It's America's pastime, you go and you talk about basketball,
- 38:33you talk about football football.
- 38:34All sports have been around for significant amount of time.
- 38:37We've seen baseball being played in the 1800s and and again, when
- 38:41you look at the difference in the specific thoughts of what
- 38:45ramp man for trying to bring and deliver to the game of baseball,
- 38:48I get what he's trying to do, he's trying to bring in the new
- 38:51age of baseball, I got it. I understand what he's trying to
- 38:54do here. And I understand by realigning
- 38:56the game. It's going to make it more
- 38:58interesting for fans to get a chance to see their favorite
- 39:01teams or get a chance over there on the west coast to get a
- 39:04chance to see more of the LA teams play against each other.
- 39:07That's fine. How does this make sense for the
- 39:10game of baseball when it's been around for a long?
- 39:12Long time. It's like this, the Yankees and
- 39:15the Mets in the same division, it's just like the Islanders,
- 39:17and the Rangers, and the same division.
- 39:19Now, the Islanders in a Rangers in the old, in the olden days in
- 39:23the eighth nineties, they were in the same division that there
- 39:26was an Atlantic division. There was a different, I forget
- 39:28how it was put together, but it was different.
- 39:31There was no National League or American League and there was an
- 39:35East and West in the Islanders in the Rangers were both in the
- 39:38east and west, but they were in different divisions that wasn't
- 39:40the Campbell in the Patrick, what whatever was I don't
- 39:42remember. I again, I'm not going to go
- 39:45back to remember that. I and if you guys want to look
- 39:48it up, you look at up what I'm saying here.
- 39:50Is it? I understand what baseball's
- 39:53trying to do if they think Is going to benefit the game and
- 39:56it's going to bring in more profits.
- 39:58Well, then Rob Manford and the leaders and owners are going to
- 40:02do whatever, whatever it's going to bring in more profit to the
- 40:06game. I think that obviously the game
- 40:08and the change of the game is interesting, by the way,
- 40:11baseball has really driven, the younger fans to come and watch
- 40:15it. Now, a lot of fans and a lot of
- 40:18parents are trying to keep their kids away.
- 40:20Keep the kids away from football because of all the CTE situation
- 40:23and speculations, that these kids are going brain dead or or
- 40:27these kids are not hitting. We're not technically hitting or
- 40:30getting on the field on the football field and doing the
- 40:32right things on a football field and no parent wants them to play
- 40:35football. If they're going to go brain
- 40:36dead or they can have CT in the future.
- 40:38I've seen that before and I've understand why parents are
- 40:41pushing them to play. Not fully contacted sports like
- 40:45baseball, bite baseball. How many times do you see them
- 40:47running to each other? Except usually, the third
- 40:49baseman running to the capture and even then, and even now you
- 40:52don't really see that anymore. Baseball is Get that away.
- 40:55So, I, I think that's why parents are trying to drive them
- 40:58to play baseball more. There's more money in baseball
- 41:01than in there is in any sport basketball, obviously has been a
- 41:05sport that's driving so much different International ways to
- 41:08bring in sponsorships and advertisements.
- 41:10And there's only 13 players on a basketball team.
- 41:13That's why the 13th player is making four or five million
- 41:17dollars to the. I don't know 17th or 18th player
- 41:20on a baseball team, they're making 500,000 dollars.
- 41:23So I mean it's different game. It's a different way that it's
- 41:27played. It's different way to situate
- 41:29the money. To go to the Superstar to the
- 41:31secondary backup. Outfield her, it's different.
- 41:35Now if it's going to drive more money and more revenue for the
- 41:39backup player to make more money than, that's what baseball's
- 41:41gonna do. This isn't gonna help baseball.
- 41:43I do believe for bringing, in new franchise is gonna help
- 41:46baseball. I did because it will bring in
- 41:49more money, it'll bring more fandom.
- 41:50Where would you put expansion team like if in a perfect world
- 41:54like Take this alignment away, right?
- 41:56Let's throw that out. Charlie is definitely a place
- 41:59that I would put a baseball team because we've we've spoken.
- 42:02Who do we speak to Rick? Curtis was the guy kerdy Rick
- 42:05kerdy was on our show and he's been pushing for a Charlotte
- 42:08baseball, team forever forever. They've been trying to do it in
- 42:12baseball over there. In Charlotte is huge.
- 42:14It's right between it's right over there by Atlanta they were
- 42:17drive more Atlanta fans to go and and become Charlotte fans
- 42:21and I and he says it's a huge huge Baseball City.
- 42:25That's what he says. I mean, you got the Durham Bulls
- 42:28and and stuff like that. Over there Portland is an
- 42:30interesting place to the Portland.
- 42:32Trail. Blazers have been around was
- 42:34around for a long, long time. And and now Portland is trying
- 42:39to drive more sports teams over there.
- 42:42I mean, I would love to see a portable a Port Lane hockey team
- 42:45over there because it's right there on the cusp of Canada.
- 42:48You talk about Seattle in Portland the right there up West
- 42:52where Canada is so that'll bring in Vancouver fans.
- 42:55That's going to bring in more Canadian fans to come and watch
- 42:58those sports teams. So I would like to see that as
- 43:00well. Baseball over there, in
- 43:02Portland, Portland and Seattle, that would be fun to watch to
- 43:05get a chance to see two cities, right next to each other.
- 43:07Go against one another on the west coast.
- 43:09So I I think Charlotte Portland make a lot of sense, Nashville.
- 43:13I don't know, Nashville's big with their, their music, their
- 43:17big with their football baseball.
- 43:19I don't know the Nashville, Predators are big over there and
- 43:22they're driving fandom and they're bringing in many
- 43:25different fans where you wouldn't believe that the, the
- 43:29cowboy wanna be over there, that'll are going to drive to
- 43:34wanna watch hockey. But now, hockey is a big sport
- 43:37over there. And the Predators are used over
- 43:39there as we've seen over the last couple of years.
- 43:41So and there and they're both very well.
- 43:43And, and they have a very good VP or now, I guess he's now the
- 43:47GM of the organization and Barry trotz.
- 43:50So I mean there is opportunity and where there's opportunity,
- 43:53there's money and where there's Money.
- 43:55That's where baseball's gonna be surfing.
- 43:57I don't care about bringing an expansion.
- 44:00That's a great idea. That's not that's not what I'm
- 44:03attacking. I'm not attacking Rob Manford to
- 44:05try to bring in expansion and bring in new cities to and build
- 44:09teams in those cities. I'm not complaining about that.
- 44:12What I'm complaining about right now is the realignment of the
- 44:16League's baseball. I mean, that way is a Giants
- 44:19fan. Before the NFL changed to the
- 44:23setup that now is being suggested, for baseball.
- 44:24The Phoenix Cardinals were in the NFC East forever.
- 44:29They were, the Saint Louis Cardinals, until like, the
- 44:31mid-80s or whatever. But they were in the nfcs and I
- 44:35got to be honest with you, I don't miss playing the
- 44:38Cardinals, they were just some team, they were bad Jake, The
- 44:40Snake plumber, and they had the best receiving fullback, and
- 44:43Larry centers. And a whole bunch of Ya, and a
- 44:47whole bunch of nothing and now that they're playing out west, I
- 44:51see, you know, Kyler Murray I don't think of oh, this is the
- 44:54team that used to be in our division.
- 44:56I think they should have always been there and I don't really
- 44:58care about that team. So I don't think that's actually
- 45:01a bad thing to try to have you play more relevant teams.
- 45:04Like when I'm coaching football, we don't want to drive two and a
- 45:07half hours away this year. We have to drive to Binghamton
- 45:09face the team. Three hours away.
- 45:10We don't want to play teams like that.
- 45:12We want to play teams that, you know, are in the area that we
- 45:16have bragging rights with. I'm sure on the pro level with
- 45:19the travel is one thing, but I guess fans I could care less
- 45:22about games against the Phoenix Cardinals, when we were kid and
- 45:26I don't care about them now. So I don't think it necessarily
- 45:28would be that bad. It would just be the whole
- 45:30getting rid of the American League in National League.
- 45:32Part of it. That would rub a lot of people
- 45:34and myself the wrong way. Like, there's so much history,
- 45:36like I hate the fact that they just don't care about.
- 45:38I I would agree with obviously baseball changing the DH to
- 45:43Pitchers hitting because it to me, it benefits.
- 45:46The American League. And I thought that baseball
- 45:49bringing the DH to the national league is help the national
- 45:52league. I really do.
- 45:53And it keeps guys playing in the league a little bit longer and
- 45:57obviously, players that are can't play the field anymore.
- 46:00Now could be an automatic DH so I think it's helped baseball.
- 46:03So things that baseball is brought to the Forefront has
- 46:06helped the game of baseball when you hear, Michael Caine however,
- 46:10he rose go back and forth with one another on X or whatever you
- 46:13call it Twitter on social media and go back and forth.
- 46:17A green one agreeing with Rob man for the other one, not
- 46:20agreeing with Ron Manfred and you're gonna go back and forth
- 46:22and you're gonna you're gonna there's gonna be a devil and
- 46:24there's gonna be an angel. There's gonna be back and forth
- 46:26Panther one way or another, because not everybody's gonna
- 46:29agree to it. I don't think changing
- 46:32conferences or getting rid of the National League or the
- 46:35American League is going to make any sense to what baseball is,
- 46:38and what baseball has done for the fans, the old fans and now
- 46:42the new fans now, the younger fans and and the younger fans.
- 46:46To find ways to try themselves to bet on fantasy.
- 46:49Maybe it helps the fantasy world out because it's a change.
- 46:52That's something or the betting man or woman out there that want
- 46:56to spend a little bit more money on baseball.
- 46:57But how does that benefit the situation for what it is?
- 47:00I don't get this. I understand where we're trying
- 47:03to nitpick or trying to figure out things to talk about when it
- 47:07comes to sports because this is not the time of year to figure
- 47:09out what to talk about because this is not the best year or the
- 47:13best time of year to talk sports because football is not around
- 47:16or PCS around the corner and then, yeah, well it's right now
- 47:19happening and then the NHL and the NBA is not happening until
- 47:22probably the next couple of weeks.
- 47:24So you're trying to nitpick and trying to find stories to talk
- 47:27about and Roman first coming out with a story that is interesting
- 47:30or people want to talk about, this is nothing to me until it
- 47:34even becomes to fruition. Even the conversation start to
- 47:38talk, he's mentioning it. Bob Knight and guilt is saying
- 47:41things. And writing things a bob is very
- 47:43well respected in the baseball where world and and Again when
- 47:47you how when you hear, how are you, how he rose, who's a Hall
- 47:50of Fame broadcaster and a Hall of Fame personality and then
- 47:53Michael Kay, who's a Hall of Fame?
- 47:55Personally go at it with one another on social media.
- 47:57You you question the fact that Rob Manford is spit and stuff
- 48:01and hopefully it'll stick and again are the owners are going
- 48:05to. The owners are going to agree to
- 48:07this, too. I don't, I understand if George
- 48:10Steinbrenner was alive right now.
- 48:12He enjoys Danbury was an old classy type of guy.
- 48:15He was like he was a guy that believed in the old style of
- 48:18baseball. Do you think George Steinbrenner
- 48:21would have agreed to this pitch clock?
- 48:22Do you think that George Steinbrenner would have liked
- 48:26that the bases are a little bit bigger, a little bit closer or
- 48:28whatever shift and completely knocking out shifting?
- 48:32Even though I thought shifting has affected the game since the
- 48:36Rays decided to really Double Joe Maddon.
- 48:39Just saw it to jump in on it and make it.
- 48:42Make it part of their game. I, I think I understand what
- 48:45what baseball is trying to do. They're trying to bring in the
- 48:48younger fan, I understand it and makes sense.
- 48:50Why baseball believes that this is, is, is going to be
- 48:54beneficial for the younger fan, but for the older fan, the fans
- 48:57like me that are in my 40s, 50 60s guys that are dedicated to
- 49:02watch just baseball. They're a fans right now.
- 49:04That are not big football fans, they're Baseball fans, there are
- 49:08fans that are not interested in hockey.
- 49:10Nobody cares about hockey Boomer.
- 49:12As we hear on WFAN, nobody gives us some people.
- 49:15Don't care about Hockey, baseball is popular no matter
- 49:18where you go here in the United States.
- 49:20And when you're telling me that the Mets and the Yankees are
- 49:23going to play in the same division that to me hurts, it
- 49:27hurts the value of what I love to watch over the years.
- 49:31When they brought in your league baseball to the, to the
- 49:33Forefront, when interleague baseball was here and started, I
- 49:37love the fact that I got a chance to see the Yankees and
- 49:39Mets square off against one, another four times in a year.
- 49:42Now I'm gonna have to see them square off 12-13-14 time.
- 49:45Got a chance to see one Soto smack, the inky around when he
- 49:49gets hot in, you know, when he plays the Yankees 14 15 times
- 49:53and a season, I don't want to see that.
- 49:55That's the thing. I don't I don't get what
- 49:58baseball's trying to do again, we can go on and on and on and
- 50:01on about this it doesn't benefit the game of baseball and if it
- 50:04doesn't benefit the game but baseball, why is this even being
- 50:07brought up again, the whole expansion thing makes sense.
- 50:12Do it. If you can bring a baseball team
- 50:14to Charlotte, you can bring a baseball team to Portland,
- 50:17whatever City bring bring bring six teams to baseball, if it
- 50:21makes sense, and it's gonna drive people to want to watch it
- 50:24in those cities and drive more fans to go and chance to go to a
- 50:28ballpark and go and watch, professional baseball then do
- 50:31it. But this the shifting of
- 50:33Divisions and conferences and making one League to another
- 50:37leak or whatever the hell he's trying to do realign the leak.
- 50:40This doesn't make sense that's all I'm going to say.
- 50:43It doesn't make sense. I think baseball needs to figure
- 50:46out what their identity is and Rob Manford should be the guy
- 50:50that's going to decide it because that is been the
- 50:53problem. He is the worst commissioner
- 50:54right now and professional sports.
- 50:56I don't care what anybody says. And Roger Goodell is not one of
- 50:59those smartest ones but he's not, he's not that dumb because
- 51:02he's bringing, he's making 50. 55 million a year, he's got his
- 51:05own Jet and His him, and his family have their own benefits
- 51:08and they he died and the day, his family dies.
- 51:11So he's Is pretty damn smart, but he's also a guy that people
- 51:15don't like, but this story the fact that raw Manfred is trying
- 51:19to spin the wheel and make the deal.
- 51:20This doesn't help baseball, it's not cleaning up the game of
- 51:24baseball. Only does the only thing it does
- 51:26is it makes me upset and it tells me that I have no interest
- 51:29in watching the game of baseball anymore, guys, how many games do
- 51:32you think I've watched when it comes to full game of baseball
- 51:35this year speaking, take a guess give me a number.
- 51:37How many full games have you thought when you and I know you
- 51:41watch a lot of baseball, how many games do you think I've
- 51:44watched this season full full games from from what from the
- 51:48first inning to the 9th Inning 16?
- 51:51Fish. I don't know.
- 51:54Probably like a dozen but maybe, maybe since you haven't seen
- 51:58that many, maybe we could dive inside base, just take a guess.
- 52:02I just want to, I want you to take a guess 12.
- 52:05Jabba, how many games do you think I've watched fully and in
- 52:08the baseball season? So far Four, Four Scoops, how
- 52:12many, how many do you think I'm gonna say, 10?
- 52:16How many games, eight games, eight full games this year?
- 52:19I go in and out of Yankee games, I don't care.
- 52:22I don't care about the regular season anymore.
- 52:24It makes no sense to me. And and again, everything that
- 52:28we're watching, when it comes to baseball is just absolutely
- 52:30ludicrous. It doesn't get important to the
- 52:32last two months of the baseball season, then I'll sit there and
- 52:35watch a fully Yankee game. I'll watch from from, I would
- 52:39say, from the month of August all the way into September, I
- 52:42will watch every single Yankee game.
- 52:44And now we're in the month of August, the Yankees suck so much
- 52:48and I don't care about what people are saying about this
- 52:50team because the Yankees are making the playoffs.
- 52:52I don't care. So I've watched eight full games
- 52:55for the New York Yankees. They're so everybody understands
- 52:57why, where I see baseball, and what I think baseball is right
- 53:01now, I've watched eight full Yankee games all season long.
- 53:04That doesn't mean I haven't watched Yankee games.
- 53:07I just haven't watched them fully.
- 53:08I watched four Innings and I'll be done with this.
- 53:10I don't care about this. I watch six Innings, I'm done.
- 53:12I'll watch two innings, I'm done.
- 53:14I I have no. Been watching the game anymore,
- 53:17it's boring. It doesn't matter how fast it
- 53:19is, or how quick the game is. To me, it doesn't get exciting
- 53:24until the last two months, just like basketball, how many times
- 53:27did we've heard people watched it?
- 53:29Come on this show and tell me, oh, I don't watch basketball
- 53:31until the last three. Four weeks are the best
- 53:33basketball season because nobody cares about the regular season
- 53:36of basketball, it only gets more interesting.
- 53:38The last month when they're fighting for a playoff spot and
- 53:41even in the playoffs, the first round of the playoffs, how many
- 53:43people really strategically watch the first round of the
- 53:47playoffs? Nobody cares.
- 53:48Because everybody knows mostly most likely we know the guys
- 53:52that are going into the second round.
- 53:53So that's that's all I'm saying and I think Sports, I understand
- 53:58sports are trying to figure out and configure a ways to make the
- 54:01game, interesting. A more driving for the
- 54:03youngsters. I just don't agree with it.
- 54:05I don't like what they're trying to do.
- 54:06All right, lady and gentlemen, we're gonna get into inside
- 54:09baseball. Now, let's go deep deep inside.
- 54:12What? Well, Errol.
- 54:22Let's get the music on please for inside baseball.
- 54:25Let's get into it. Or you said, you haven't watched
- 54:28that much. Yeah, games full games of the
- 54:31Yankees, I've watched Yankee games.
- 54:33I've watched probably I've popped on a Yankee game all
- 54:37season long. I'm not watching a full Yankee
- 54:39game. I've watched eight games fully.
- 54:43Well, guess who else isn't watching Aaron Boone?
- 54:46Because Aaron Boone said that in a quote to the media said that
- 54:50judge isn't going to be able to throw normal again this year and
- 54:55then Aaron judge the next day said that's not true at all.
- 54:59He hasn't even watched me throw. At all.
- 55:05Not on the same page, guys. Aaron judge because he hasn't
- 55:09been able to throw so far. They've had to sit John Carlos.
- 55:12Stanton John Carlos Stanton is hit in like 300 and hit two home
- 55:17runs yesterday. The Yankees had nine home runs
- 55:19second time this season 8th time in the entire history of the
- 55:23Yankees. But of course, that was the big
- 55:27great output, they swept the Cardinals.
- 55:29But before that they were in doing well, they had a series
- 55:33this weekend with the Boston Red Sox.
- 55:37Do you think that the little mini hot streak there on right
- 55:40now is going to be able to carry them in the most important
- 55:43series of the year? No.
- 55:45I think the Yankees right now are crappy team and a crappy
- 55:48organization, they got to figure out what they're doing with
- 55:51their manager, and they're going to have to figure out what
- 55:52they're doing with their GM. It doesn't matter what's going
- 55:55to happen when they play the Red Sox in a couple of days or a
- 55:58week from now, because the Yankees shouldn't make the
- 56:01playoffs. The Boston Red Sox, have been
- 56:03the better team in the American League in the American League
- 56:06East. The Yankees have not been a very
- 56:07good team, really two weeks before the All-Star break and
- 56:11they've been horrible since then, the only player that's
- 56:13actually hitting and playing good, baseball for the New York
- 56:16Yankees is Bellinger. He's the only one, the team
- 56:19stinks. How many times do I have to tell
- 56:21you guys? We can go over and over and over
- 56:23and over again about the New York Yankees.
- 56:25Aaron Boone is as good as gone as good as gone and Brian
- 56:29Cashman, don't be surprised. If he steps down at the end of
- 56:33the season, this team is in the gutter right now.
- 56:36There's nothing good about this team and Aaron judge throwing
- 56:40the ball or peanut automatic. DH, it's not gonna make a
- 56:43difference. They're not making the play.
- 56:45They're not good, so it doesn't matter if there's a play in the
- 56:49Red Sox. It doesn't matter if they're
- 56:51playing Seattle, it doesn't matter if they're playing the
- 56:53New York freaking Mets, the Yankee stick.
- 56:56Game over. Put a cork in them.
- 56:58Yeah, it's one of those things that yeah, you look at Aaron
- 57:01judge and you were saying, all right, how long are they gonna
- 57:03need him to DH? And we're thinking it was gonna
- 57:05be only like a 10-day period, Aaron Boone thought even could
- 57:08have been earlier than that. This kind of report, definitely
- 57:10screams a lot more alarming if he's not gonna be able to throw
- 57:12properly at all, nevertheless the range in the Outfield but
- 57:15from any spot in the Outfield throwing it.
- 57:18But judges always had a good arm throughout his career too.
- 57:20And now you're gonna have to have him DH more that hurts.
- 57:22The fact that the Yankees have belts up so many other like
- 57:25Outfield, the h, t types. And it just really not.
- 57:27I good for the Yankees identity right now.
- 57:29Yeah, I think you gotta be on the same page, you don't pay.
- 57:32Obviously come from Judge. It's a little bit different than
- 57:34coming from everybody else and it wasn't good.
- 57:36They bun kind of backed off on it, whatever.
- 57:38But you know, he was said, so people are going to look into it
- 57:42and see what it is. But yeah, it's if he's saying
- 57:44that it's not good and everybody's not on the same
- 57:46page. All right.
- 57:48Let's go to the next one. What we have here is a really
- 57:52weird story. I don't know if you were
- 57:54following this era but Ketel, Marte All Star second baseman.
- 57:58For the Arizona, Diamondbacks head, to apologize to the team
- 58:03for being missing in action. He was robbed apparently.
- 58:07His house was robbed during the All-Star break.
- 58:09He had some issues back home, I got a couple of quotes here.
- 58:12He was frustrated in a bad spot. He know, showed the first series
- 58:15back from the break, the team did great with Adam.
- 58:18They slept thing was the Cardinals and a lot of sleeping
- 58:22in the Cardinals going on right now.
- 58:23But then when he came back they lost nine of ten.
- 58:26There's apparently a lot of weirdness going on with him in
- 58:29the clubhouse. Here's what manager told, Tori,
- 58:32livolo said I know there's an elephant in the room and I'll
- 58:34just say what I want to say about it.
- 58:35I know Kettle, talk to you guys and I'm proud of him for doing
- 58:38that. That's not easy for him to do.
- 58:39I know we showed some vulnerability.
- 58:41I'm really proud of him. Digging in the way he did.
- 58:43What I'll say about keto or things.
- 58:44I know he's a great teammate. He's a great young man.
- 58:47He plays hard every single day for the Diamondbacks.
- 58:49He just wants to win. Baseball games, that's it.
- 58:53Guys, I don't I don't know if you've ever had like a situation
- 58:57like this with a teammate but it certainly seems like we're not
- 59:00being told most of the story and that's something pretty weird
- 59:03happened here. Michael Jordan was not being
- 59:06really not like by any of the players on a team but they won
- 59:09ballgame. They won ball game.
- 59:11Michael Jordan is one of the greatest basketball players of
- 59:13all time when he went and he practiced, everybody was
- 59:16expected to play at the top of their game.
- 59:18He didn't matter if it was a practice or an NBA game, he
- 59:22expects you to play at your full Talent.
- 59:24When you look at this Kettle story, and all this other stuff,
- 59:27if kettle's going out there and throwing players onto the boss
- 59:30and not getting along with teammates, he got to get rid of
- 59:32them. Now he's going out there and
- 59:34he's saying the things that he has said over the last couple of
- 59:36Seasons or last couple of weeks and and he hasn't played well
- 59:40and he couldn't stay healthy and all this other stuff and then
- 59:43he's having problems over there during the All-Star break and
- 59:46any comes back in their not waiting.
- 59:47Obviously, there's a specific situation right now.
- 59:50That is not working out players, do not want to play for him.
- 59:53And the team just doesn't want to stand behind him.
- 59:55So obviously there's a big problem over there.
- 59:57Yeah. You wonder if that's something
- 59:58could have heard trade deadline value, too.
- 59:59Because I looked like the Diamondbacks, we're trying to go
- 1:00:01for big Swings with him especially since he's been a MVP
- 1:00:05finalists each of the last two years and I I was advocating for
- 1:00:08it to be a big move. If the Yankees made a big swing
- 1:00:10or one of the one of these American League teams, the
- 1:00:12Guardians that were going for big swing on offense.
- 1:00:14I think that could have been a player.
- 1:00:16They're doing, maybe, maybe teams in front of us, were
- 1:00:18alarmed by the way. He was as a leader as a culture
- 1:00:21guy for that Diamondbacks team. Because two years ago, just two
- 1:00:24years ago, they were in the World Series.
- 1:00:25They looked like he was like resurrecting his career on the
- 1:00:27top of the world and now all of a sudden it's the way officer.
- 1:00:30Yeah. It's I mean what's could tell
- 1:00:32and all the things that happened?
- 1:00:33It's you know, he's a personality, he's gone through a
- 1:00:35lot this year. So I think it all just kind of
- 1:00:38came to a head and you know just was one of those things where
- 1:00:41you know just added fuel to the fire and you know sometimes you
- 1:00:45just need to check yourself and have a self-talk and, you know,
- 1:00:48just being a leader. It's it's a little different and
- 1:00:51much more as required. So You know, it's now it's water
- 1:00:55under the bridge. Move on, keep going.
- 1:00:56Keep them over. All right, speaking of keeping
- 1:00:59it moving. Let's go to the team that's been
- 1:01:01moving to the top of the standings for the last couple of
- 1:01:04months. That's the Milwaukee Brewers.
- 1:01:06They're the best team in baseball.
- 1:01:08It's kind of remarkable how they've done that at least
- 1:01:11record-wise, right? Now, obviously, before they got
- 1:01:14swept in a doubleheader Yesterday by the Cubs, they won.
- 1:01:17The first game of that Series. So they're going for the split
- 1:01:19tonight. They've been short of
- 1:01:20Unstoppable, they're 79 and 47, 32 games.
- 1:01:24Over 500, seven game lead on the Cubs.
- 1:01:27They've won before that. They won. 29 of 33 games
- 1:01:32incredible. They have the top starting
- 1:01:34pitcher era of in all of baseball their staff is Freddie
- 1:01:38Peralta a healthy. Brandon Woodruff who has a brand
- 1:01:42new repertoire of pitches. Not a fastball pitcher Lake used
- 1:01:44to be so he reinvented himself, veteran Jose.
- 1:01:47Quintana Jets about him, he's been picked it up in, you know,
- 1:01:53after for a shaky first month or so Quinn.
- 1:01:56Priester was traded for Or Nothing by the Red Sox to the
- 1:02:00Brewers that began to see the season.
- 1:02:01He's been a revelation out there and then I haven't even
- 1:02:05mentioned Jacob, mizerowski, who is the electric?
- 1:02:08Rookie throwing 103 with mid-90s, sliders the only real
- 1:02:12name on the roster. Arrows, Christian Yelich, whose
- 1:02:15past his prime MVP years. But he still hadn't 265 to 26
- 1:02:19homers having a good year. There's a series of players
- 1:02:22having great years from William Contreras to second year, second
- 1:02:26baseman Bryce terrain who's a lead Defender, who's got the
- 1:02:29biggest, jump in exit velocity of anyone in Major League
- 1:02:32Baseball going from like the bottom of the barrel of exit
- 1:02:35velocity to Hidden Lake. 7th percentile.
- 1:02:38And they have all these guys that you may have heard their
- 1:02:41name, South freling, Blake, Perkins, Isaac Collins is a good
- 1:02:45rookie and then there's Yankees Prospect, former Yankees
- 1:02:48Prospect Caleb Durbin, who was traded for, you got it.
- 1:02:53Devin Williams, who is doing it. So, here's the question, is This
- 1:02:58team a real world series favorite or is it just an
- 1:03:02incredible hot streak for our for a good young team?
- 1:03:04That's maybe ahead of schedule time will tell when it comes to
- 1:03:07Milwaukee Milwaukee is not a good playoff team.
- 1:03:09They have proven that they're not a good playoff team, they
- 1:03:12don't show up in the playoffs. We know what the Mets did to
- 1:03:14them last year, they were pretty good team last year.
- 1:03:16And then you remember somebody named the polar bear slaps.
- 1:03:21A three-run home run in the later Innings and wins the game
- 1:03:24and knocks them out. So I only time will tell, I
- 1:03:26don't know if Milwaukee's the real deal until they get out of
- 1:03:28the first round. The why what?
- 1:03:29Well it's not going to be wild card because they're going to
- 1:03:32win the national league but right, whatever.
- 1:03:34Whatever they do in the divisional series is going to be
- 1:03:37my thoughts so what they could do in the National League
- 1:03:39Championship. Yeah.
- 1:03:40It's a very 2021 Giants feel that I kind of have with them
- 1:03:43too because there's some Advanced metrics where it comes
- 1:03:46when it comes to power when it comes to extra base, hits that
- 1:03:48the Brewers offense has not been great at, so I'm still a little
- 1:03:50concerned about that, even a missed, all that, like that,
- 1:03:53they scream really good on paper, but it's like one of
- 1:03:55those teams. Where are they really?
- 1:03:57As good as good as that. Road in that, playoff identity,
- 1:03:59like Arrow was saying to like the Brewers, not want to playoff
- 1:04:02series since 2018, when they went to the NLCS and lost a
- 1:04:06tight, one of the Dodgers loss of seven games series.
- 1:04:08So can they find that playoff identity?
- 1:04:09Again, will be another question but like, Corey Hart was saying
- 1:04:12yesterday. They were really well-run
- 1:04:13organization and deserve a lot more respect for the kind of
- 1:04:16factory. They've put together as a lower
- 1:04:18Market team. Yeah.
- 1:04:19And you add Brandon Woodruff almost been out two years and
- 1:04:22you know, coming back from serious stuff and you know,
- 1:04:25doing what he's done since he's come back from injury, that's a
- 1:04:27huge. Huge piece to what they're going
- 1:04:30to do and you know I think they have the pieces but yeah it's
- 1:04:35just one gets to to nut cut and time in the playoffs.
- 1:04:38They they fall a little short time in time out so adding an
- 1:04:41arm like that. I think that they got some guys
- 1:04:43that want to prove some stuff in the postseason.
- 1:04:44So time will tell I'll just say this before we move on, I love
- 1:04:49terrain terrains. Like one of these guys is my
- 1:04:52sleeper in fantasy this year. That guy, they got gonna give
- 1:04:56him the nickname. That no one's giving him yet the
- 1:04:58taronga Tang. Nice.
- 1:04:59There we go. The terrain tank.
- 1:05:01All right, we've got a couple more going on here before we get
- 1:05:05into it. We got to go to write to
- 1:05:07injuries. There's been there was a major
- 1:05:09major injury Ariel Zach wheeler he is on the ill.
- 1:05:14Very definitely. He had the old blood clot in the
- 1:05:18throwing arm. So they did surgery to remove
- 1:05:21it. I immediately always think of
- 1:05:23David Cohn when you hear about this one, he had that armpit
- 1:05:27surgery and I think it was, was it 96 actually?
- 1:05:31And he came back or was one of those years that they wanted?
- 1:05:33It might maybe was 98, but regardless, that one can knock
- 1:05:38out. Even the best pitcher in
- 1:05:40wheelers, been a top five pitcher in baseball.
- 1:05:42All Season other injuries, Felix, Bautista, the or in other
- 1:05:46guy, the Orioles depended on. They thought he was gonna come
- 1:05:49back from surgery. Let's from Tommy John.
- 1:05:52Now, he's got in shoulder surgery, he was there closer,
- 1:05:54just says, a lot of what happened there.
- 1:05:56This year, Francisco Alvarez, the Mets catcher, he has the
- 1:06:00backwards, Tommy, John, the one that you don't have surgery on
- 1:06:04the one that was on the thumb. So there's the elbow part of it
- 1:06:07at the end on one side and the thumb part of the UCL on the
- 1:06:11other things. Dustin Pedroia, famously had
- 1:06:13that injury and really couldn't play that well after it.
- 1:06:15But Alvarez has that one. He's on the eel.
- 1:06:19Vlad. Arrow Junior not on the eel yet,
- 1:06:22but if you saw him do the splits at first base, you'd understand
- 1:06:26why he might go on the eel. What an incredible stretch, but
- 1:06:30he even jogged off, but they're saying that he has some
- 1:06:33inflammation in the hand. He's from doing the splits Jacob
- 1:06:35degrom's. He's gonna miss a start shoulder
- 1:06:38fatigue and adley rushman again. Another Oreo was supposed to be,
- 1:06:43you know, one of the great catchers in the league.
- 1:06:46He's gonna be out of town at the end of this year.
- 1:06:48He's got another injury. The Zach wheeler one is scary, I
- 1:06:51mean blood clots when you hear blood clots, that's usually
- 1:06:54something that's never going to go away.
- 1:06:56We've heard that from basketball players wiping Yama, I've been
- 1:06:59saying he's young exactly. There's what 33 34 years old
- 1:07:02he's at the tail end of his career.
- 1:07:03You're ready says that he wants to live out his contract and
- 1:07:06after his contracts all up he's probably not going to extend.
- 1:07:10He wants to retire. So that's the scariest one out
- 1:07:13of all of them. The other injuries are
- 1:07:14significant degrom's always heard but Zack Wheeler having
- 1:07:19blood, clots Scariest one out of all of them.
- 1:07:21Yeah, you definitely feel for somebody like that.
- 1:07:22So a guy that's been pretty, but after his Mets, career has been
- 1:07:25pretty healthy in his Philly career so far.
- 1:07:27And that's definitely a scary thought.
- 1:07:29Obviously, we saw it with Chris Bosh and his career, when his
- 1:07:32career ended, and somebody like Stephen Stam costin, and the NHL
- 1:07:35happens, not really been the same Health Wise since then, so
- 1:07:38you hope wheeler doesn't accumulate for him that kind of
- 1:07:40thing as far as Alvarez. Definitely a big loss.
- 1:07:42He was starting to play a little better for the Mets.
- 1:07:44But again, the Mets have bigger problems in their lineup right
- 1:07:47now. The blood clots scary because
- 1:07:48you just don't know what the gonna happen.
- 1:07:50Another one that just came out that you didn't touch on fish
- 1:07:53was wise again, they say he has a flexor strain.
- 1:07:55Now we all. Yeah.
- 1:07:57So we all know what that leads to, but yeah, this time of the
- 1:08:00year where things start popping up with which it's obviously,
- 1:08:02not a great time in the year. But going through it, some key
- 1:08:05pieces that are lost and, you know, it's I mean it's sucks
- 1:08:08being hurt and what happens in, you know, there's some tough
- 1:08:12ones out there and we'll see if they can pick up the slack or
- 1:08:15some of those guys in big names. So I know what happened.
- 1:08:17Yeah, we will find out. What happened is we got only
- 1:08:20about 30 games left in the season.
- 1:08:22We'll see what happens inside. Baseball, as a plays out.
- 1:08:26All right, ladies and gentlemen. Now it's my dose of the day.
- 1:08:30Dose of the day. You are not a lot.
- 1:08:34I don't have a lot but no. Ladies and gentlemen, the 49ers
- 1:08:44are in the tabloids again, and it seems like the 49ers can't
- 1:08:47control their own players as Kyle Shanahan suspends to Marcus
- 1:08:52Robinson. Yes, they're bringing in wide
- 1:08:55receivers because they can't keep them.
- 1:08:56They're on a DL or whatever the hell they are.
- 1:08:59They trade them away, Deebo Samuels no longer with them,
- 1:09:02he's been Washington since signing wide receiver to Marcus
- 1:09:05Robertson and March, the San Francisco 49ers have been
- 1:09:08bracing for him to be suspended for the first three games of the
- 1:09:13Season as part of the full out from the misdemeanor.
- 1:09:16DUI, charge on Wednesday. 9ers, coach Kyle Shannon revealed on
- 1:09:22KNBR radio, in San Francisco. That Robinson has indeed been
- 1:09:28suspended for the next three weeks D.
- 1:09:32Rob were not going to have through the first three weeks.
- 1:09:36Shanahan said, you can always appeal it, but a lady and
- 1:09:40gentlemen, there's no way of appealing this.
- 1:09:42He this is a guy that can't stay out of trouble.
- 1:09:44They bring him to the team. This is not the first time to
- 1:09:47Marcus Robertson has gotten in trouble.
- 1:09:49He's been in the league for quite a few years and he still
- 1:09:52puts himself In Harm's Way and the 49ers can't control their
- 1:09:55own players. They're bringing in guys from
- 1:09:57other rosters and can't control their players.
- 1:10:00I don't know man. Kyle Shanahan's it really on the
- 1:10:03hot seat. I don't care what anybody says
- 1:10:05him and John Lynch are absolutely on the hot seat and
- 1:10:08all it spells to me is delusion. As we all know, Owen believes
- 1:10:14and he's delusional about this team that they're going to be a
- 1:10:17playoff team. They're not a playoff team, this
- 1:10:20team is gonna fall flat on their face this year and the 49ers
- 1:10:23can't control their own players. They bring Bambi out and they
- 1:10:26bring all this garbage back and it's never going to work.
- 1:10:29This team is done for as you're in a division that's going to be
- 1:10:32run by the LA Rams. So my deuce of the day goes to
- 1:10:36the incompetent Kyle, Shanahan and the San Francisco 49ers.
- 1:10:42All right, before we get our guests in, we're gonna have the
- 1:10:45one and only Sportsman in just a few moments.
- 1:10:48We will be talking to former Brewers pitcher and Curry, ESPN,
- 1:10:51baseball analyst Kyle Peterson. But first our Sports minute,
- 1:10:55what the fish. All right, guys, Aaron Fishman
- 1:11:06here with your Sportsman. I got a few stories before we
- 1:11:08get into the scores, this evening, ESPN reports, that WBA
- 1:11:12lightweight champion. Gervonta tank Davis will take on
- 1:11:16Jake Paul at State, Farm Arena in Atlanta on November 14th.
- 1:11:21The contracted way to number of rounds are yet to be determined
- 1:11:24for the fight. It will be promoted by Paul's
- 1:11:26most valuable Productions and we'll be streamed live on
- 1:11:29Netflix. This fight will be interesting
- 1:11:32based upon weight as Davis, wrestled lat as last match at
- 1:11:35134 pounds, and Paul faced the now, deported Julio Cesar Chavez
- 1:11:40at a shade under 200 pounds. When Paul fought Floyd
- 1:11:44Mayweather and suffered his only loss he waited at 189.
- 1:11:46But even at that amount, there would be a large difference for
- 1:11:49the lightweight titleholder since 2023 to make up for.
- 1:11:53We all know that Paul wants to fight to be fair and treated
- 1:11:56seriously. So I'm sure the weight
- 1:11:58difference will be reasonable, right?
- 1:12:02After the Colts decided on naming former giant signal.
- 1:12:05Caller Daniel Jones is their starting quarterback this
- 1:12:08season. Recently demoted quarterback,
- 1:12:10Anthony Richardson's agent, let it be known publicly that
- 1:12:13neither the third year QB or or him are happy.
- 1:12:17Derek Jackson said, the trust is a big factor and that is at best
- 1:12:21questionable right now. Anthony came back and made the
- 1:12:24improvements in the areas he needed to improve.
- 1:12:26And by all accounts, he had a great Camp when they need a big
- 1:12:29play last year. Whose hands, did they put the
- 1:12:32ball in Anthony while Jackson may have a point.
- 1:12:34The fact that Richerson couldn't beat out Danny, dimes does not
- 1:12:38vote well for his future in the NFL or with the Colts this
- 1:12:41season. And finally, if Jets fans are
- 1:12:44hoping for old school out of their new head coach, Sharon
- 1:12:46Glen, they are certainly getting at this preseason as the Jets
- 1:12:49looked at turn around the direction of the franchise.
- 1:12:51After bottoming out last year with the Aaron Rodgers era
- 1:12:54ending and everyone getting fired and Rogers in Pittsburgh.
- 1:12:57It was reported early today that on Sunday the Jets held a secret
- 1:13:01practice. Where the players ran the drills
- 1:13:03and called the plays with the only member of the coaching
- 1:13:06staff present being Glenn. It was personally different for
- 1:13:09me because I never expected experience that having no
- 1:13:12coaches out there. Said according to Brandon
- 1:13:14Stevens of former Ravens quarterback cornerback, it was
- 1:13:17great for us to lead the groups by ourselves other players also
- 1:13:20commented on the uniqueness of the practice which Glenn himself
- 1:13:23experienced as a player for Bill.
- 1:13:26Parcells in the late 90s, when Parcels famously stormed off the
- 1:13:29field and told the team to practice on their own without
- 1:13:32coaches. Apparently, it was supposed to
- 1:13:35be kept the secret, but star wide receiver Garrett Wilson,
- 1:13:38let the cat out of the bag on in a Tuesday, interview saying,
- 1:13:40they went at it for about an hour.
- 1:13:42The Jets certainly are getting old school, just like maybe,
- 1:13:45maybe like retro clothes. What's old can be new again?

- 1:16:03I I before before we came back from break, I was in the
- 1:16:08bathroom yakking. I been dealing, I don't know, I
- 1:16:11got dizzy in the beginning of the show.
- 1:16:13I have been all all over the place but I I'm here and I'm
- 1:16:18working and I'm happy to be here.
- 1:16:19But yeah. I it's very nice to have you on
- 1:16:22the show, bro. Know you're a gamer.
- 1:16:24I respect that. We've all done that and come
- 1:16:26back into the game. So I'm impressed.
- 1:16:28I'm trying and more ways than one.
- 1:16:30Yeah, I screw when we went to break.
- 1:16:36I was telling my producer over here and my board up guy.
- 1:16:38I'm going to the bathroom, I'm going.
- 1:16:40I'm going. Yeah, I'm gonna be right back
- 1:16:42and he just told me it's like, are you okay as like I'm going
- 1:16:45to be a gamer, I'm gonna get through this show, no matter
- 1:16:47what. So if people you're seeing me
- 1:16:49all over the place, that's why I don't know.
- 1:16:52I have vertigo and sometimes I get this and I'm dizzy and I'm
- 1:16:57trying to figure out where I am and you feel like the weight is
- 1:17:02turning one way and your body's going the other.
- 1:17:04I don't know. It's, it's a different.
- 1:17:06It's a different kind of feeling.
- 1:17:07I don't know if anybody's dealt with vertigo, but if you have,
- 1:17:10it is the worst feeling in the world when you have no control
- 1:17:12over it. But speaking of a team that
- 1:17:15doesn't need any vertica. They're playing great baseball
- 1:17:18right now and that's the Milwaukee Brewers.
- 1:17:20They're playing the best baseball I have ever seen them
- 1:17:23play. You would have thought when you
- 1:17:25seen all these different moves over the last couple of years,
- 1:17:28they lose their GM, they lose their manager and you would
- 1:17:31think they would fall flat on their face.
- 1:17:33They rebuild this team. They have all these young
- 1:17:36talented players that have one of the best pitching staffs
- 1:17:38right now, in baseball, one of the better bullpens in baseball.
- 1:17:41What do you think, has changed this team over the last couple
- 1:17:45of weeks that's made this team, one of the best, or if not the
- 1:17:48best team in baseball, we started.
- 1:17:50I mean, that's part of it, the pixie entire year.
- 1:17:53I think the You know Pat Murphy is a different kind of manager
- 1:17:57to where I mean he was a gold gloves boxer.
- 1:18:00Like his his mindset is different than most and the You
- 1:18:06know, he's okay playing old school baseball and that's kind
- 1:18:08of the wizard bill that built up with the last few years is not
- 1:18:13necessarily. Get a bang is more as many home
- 1:18:14runs as ever, but they're okay with me, and identity, the okay
- 1:18:18with the kind of live with the small Market mentality, and Now,
- 1:18:23you look up, I looked just a minute ago and they've got 79
- 1:18:25wins Dodgers have 72. If you would have thought we got
- 1:18:29to this time in the season that the Brewers had seven more wins
- 1:18:33in the Dodgers. I think that we we could have
- 1:18:35made some money in Vegas. So we'll see if it keeps going.
- 1:18:38But ultimately it's the run is is pretty cool.
- 1:18:41And Mercy. Great dude, man.
- 1:18:43He was he was in college at Arizona State when I was in
- 1:18:46college. So I've known it for a long time
- 1:18:47and he's a great fit in Milwaukee.
- 1:18:50Yeah he I got I got Murphy in the College World Series if you
- 1:18:54remember KP. Yeah so yeah he he didn't like
- 1:18:57me very kill me. Actually that doesn't surprise
- 1:19:01me. Yeah, we were playing at Arizona
- 1:19:03State my sophomore year and I gave up seven in the first and
- 1:19:08they kept me in the game. And the leadoff hitter was
- 1:19:12chirping. So I drilled him.
- 1:19:14In the third and then he came back up on the 5th.
- 1:19:17And my roommate was a catcher. He came out he's like you're not
- 1:19:19going to do it again. I'm like, no, I'm not gonna do
- 1:19:20it again. And he came up my head in the
- 1:19:23exact same spot and Murph was coaching third, I didn't know
- 1:19:26Murphy. And out of the corner of my eye.
- 1:19:28I see Murph coming at me. I've never seen a third base
- 1:19:31coach go after somebody. And I thought, oh no, this is
- 1:19:36like he's gonna win this one and the Umpire wrapped him up and
- 1:19:39they didn't throw me out. So when you guys were playing
- 1:19:42them, it was the first time I'd ever met him.
- 1:19:45Oh, and the guy that I drilled was his assistant coach.
- 1:19:50Who I had never met and it was Michael Moreno and he came
- 1:19:54charging up to me like it was going to tackle me stopped an
- 1:19:57inch away from me. Murph posted out laughing and
- 1:19:59since then Every time I see Murphy's has been great, man.
- 1:20:03He's he's good. Yeah that was a couple years
- 1:20:05right after you started with. Yes, right.
- 1:20:09Yeah. First I've always and we've
- 1:20:12known each other a long time. I've always wondered what made
- 1:20:14you pick Stanford. I was there when they wanted in
- 1:20:201988. I was in the stands.
- 1:20:22That's a lot older than you guys.
- 1:20:26And I don't know, I didn't even know where it was at the time
- 1:20:28when I wanted it. Just they wanted and they signed
- 1:20:31my program and I thought it was really cool and so, I ended up
- 1:20:37You know, the times were different than you had to
- 1:20:40recruit yourself if you're in the Nebraska.
- 1:20:42So, I sent letters to like 80 coaches.
- 1:20:45And one of them was Stanford and that I figured out the longest
- 1:20:48distance code. That's how long ago it was in
- 1:20:50the school. And I would go in the training
- 1:20:53room and call all these different coaches and try to
- 1:20:55recruit myself because that was the only thing you could do.
- 1:20:58And Stanford said, all right if you want to give it a shot then
- 1:21:02come out and go to a camp and I want to a camp and I don't know
- 1:21:05if you've ever been on campus but it's It's pretty cool.
- 1:21:08Yeah. Looked a little bit different
- 1:21:11than Elkhorn Nebraska. So when they said yes, and
- 1:21:14offered me a full 10% scholarship, I said that sounds
- 1:21:18like a great idea. So I want to ask about the, the
- 1:21:21recruiting rules that have changed now with the NCAA
- 1:21:23passing the law of the law, obviously, that the schools
- 1:21:26could play the pairs, direct play, the pay the players
- 1:21:28directly. Like, what are your thoughts to
- 1:21:29that, and how it'll impact College baseballs?
- 1:21:31I know you follow that very closely about being an analyst I
- 1:21:35think, I mean, shit, we live in a capitalist Society if somebody
- 1:21:40wants to pay to do something, you should be able to take the
- 1:21:42money. So I know that it makes things
- 1:21:45like I would not want to be a college coach right now.
- 1:21:49Because the coaching component of your job is so much different
- 1:21:52than it's ever been. You don't get a coach as much.
- 1:21:53You get to do all the other stuff. but again, I mean, if
- 1:21:56somebody thinks that they're willing to pay you to go play
- 1:22:00college, baseball, or football, or basketball or Row for that
- 1:22:04matter like fine. I mean I think that's totally
- 1:22:07fine now. I mean, it does create a bunch
- 1:22:09of inequity in college sports and that's that's not going to
- 1:22:12change. So it becomes one of two things
- 1:22:14like You can get paid in Life to do anything else.
- 1:22:18So I have a hard time saying that we can't pay College
- 1:22:20athletes and people want to pay him but yet if they want to go
- 1:22:22sell a car or if they're good at music or whatever it is that get
- 1:22:26paid for that. But they can't get paid for
- 1:22:28doing what they do on the field. So I think it's fine.
- 1:22:31But it does create a pretty Unfortunate mess.
- 1:22:36Sometimes, as everybody knows, we are talking to former Brewers
- 1:22:39pitcher and Kearny ESPN baseball analyst Kyle Peterson.
- 1:22:42You know, it's so interesting. When you watch the New York
- 1:22:44Yankees and everybody keeps talking about Aaron Boone.
- 1:22:47It's Aaron Boone's fault. You go on social media.
- 1:22:49Every single analyst is stay. Well, actually, I've been
- 1:22:53speaking to a bunch of analysts off air.
- 1:22:55And a lot of these analysts don't believe, it's just Aaron
- 1:22:58Boone. It could be management.
- 1:23:00It could be some of the analytic guys.
- 1:23:02When you look at the Yankees right now, I have you seen the
- 1:23:05Yankees this bad at the end of the season?
- 1:23:07When was the last time, you can remember the Yankees this bad at
- 1:23:11the tail end of the season. I'm not a Yankees game.
- 1:23:13The guy like, you guys are the follow some every year.
- 1:23:16But boonie was my partner. For a couple years in the booth.
- 1:23:20And so I got to know boonie Actually the year before.
- 1:23:24Well the year that he got the Yankees up, we were doing the
- 1:23:27Little League World Series together.
- 1:23:28It was towards the end a Little League World Series like he's
- 1:23:30like listen man, I don't know if I'm gonna do his TV thing
- 1:23:32anymore. Then ultimately the Yankees
- 1:23:34piece came up and he got the gig and and has been there ever
- 1:23:37since I've never seen a manager that had any effect that guy hit
- 1:23:42him, or throwing strikes or doing a variety of other things
- 1:23:46now, You know, they can control a clubhouse and do a lot of
- 1:23:51things like that and get guys, comfortable, and comfortable and
- 1:23:54roles. But ultimately, If you don't
- 1:23:56have to do, or if you do have to do's and they're not doing what
- 1:23:58you thought they were going to do then.
- 1:24:00The easy scapegoat is the manager of the management or
- 1:24:02anything else because you can't fire your whole team.
- 1:24:04That's, that's that just doesn't really work.
- 1:24:06So, I'm biased for boonie because he's a buddy but
- 1:24:10ultimately I know the expectations are a little bit
- 1:24:12different than most so I I mean I can't directly answer your
- 1:24:17questions as to whether I've ever seen them, this bad.
- 1:24:19I also know they're like four hours or four and a half or
- 1:24:21whatever it is. And you have a good two weeks
- 1:24:24and amazingly he's good again it's crazy.
- 1:24:26How good managers are when teams play well and how much managers
- 1:24:30suck when they don't play well but yet they haven't played any
- 1:24:34part and actually throwing a picture then at the plate.
- 1:24:37But I mean that's the nature of the game and he knew what he
- 1:24:39signed up for and honestly it's been a pretty decent run Kyle.
- 1:24:42That's why I've been going back and forth and I've been arguing
- 1:24:44with the Yankee fans. You can't blame the manager for
- 1:24:46Aaron judge getting hurt. You can't blame the manager
- 1:24:49because Jazz Chisholm can't hit the ball or hit.
- 1:24:53Hit a home, run at the Home Run Derby.
- 1:24:55This is not Aaron Boone's full to Aaron.
- 1:24:58Boone is going out there. He's following the analytics.
- 1:25:01He's following what the executives are telling him.
- 1:25:03What Brian Cashman is telling him on the phone and and this is
- 1:25:07what he's doing. He's following the criteria of
- 1:25:10being a manager for the New York Yankees.
- 1:25:12So you gonna blame him because it, the team isn't playing well,
- 1:25:16or they're not pitching or they're not throwing strikes or
- 1:25:18some of these guys. Can't stay healthy and Max
- 1:25:20nobody thought Max freed was gonna Fall off the way he has
- 1:25:23because of the blisters on his finger is that Aaron Boone's
- 1:25:26fault. Oh, I mean I don't I think it's
- 1:25:30Sports. But we all everybody's got to
- 1:25:33find a scapegoat. That's the way it works.
- 1:25:35And the easiest game, go to them.
- 1:25:36Manager in baseball. Because it's, it's easy.
- 1:25:40I mean, you fall back on that. Well, it's got to be his fault.
- 1:25:42Well, not really, I mean, it's, he walks into a clubhouse.
- 1:25:46He's got 25 names in right down. That's it.
- 1:25:47Like that, that's the extent of what you can do it.
- 1:25:50After you do that. I mean, you can make some
- 1:25:51Bullpen moves and do the things you can't do in the course of
- 1:25:54the game. But you know, it's not like you
- 1:25:55can magically go get Terex Google.
- 1:25:59And he's gonna throw every five days and now we're really good.
- 1:26:01Aja was my college Catcher And I'm in a joke with him a while
- 1:26:05ago I'm like man you get really smart when school will throws
- 1:26:08like you're brilliant. Every time he goes out there
- 1:26:11you're really good manager when school is on the mount.
- 1:26:15You're really good manager when you have really good players, it
- 1:26:18just that that's the way that's Sports work.
- 1:26:21You're really good football coach.
- 1:26:22When you really, really good quarterback. like it's amazing
- 1:26:25how much better you get when the skill position and the guy that
- 1:26:27touches Baltimore Is really good.
- 1:26:30So, I mean, again, this isn't a boot apologist.
- 1:26:33He was just I think that and I hope this isn't seen the wrong
- 1:26:38way, but I think the most over. Talked about position in sports,
- 1:26:43is a manager. I really do like football,
- 1:26:47you're calling plays every single play.
- 1:26:49You have a direct effect on what's gonna happen.
- 1:26:52Basketball, to some extent, you're calling plays, and they
- 1:26:54run a pick-and-roll every time, but still you're calling some
- 1:26:57type of player baseball. You really not I mean you the
- 1:27:01catcher's calling the game, you go into it, you have a you've
- 1:27:04got a game plan that ultimately there it goes and you can steal
- 1:27:07sometimes and hit and run and work the bullpen but at the end
- 1:27:10of the day, the direct impact that you have when the game
- 1:27:12starts is as minimal for a major league manager.
- 1:27:15As I think any other major sport.
- 1:27:17Yeah. KP like I you've seen obviously,
- 1:27:22The game evolved, not only as player.
- 1:27:26As somebody that's covered it, as a dad seeing Sports and
- 1:27:30general. Being like with the way, the
- 1:27:34whole dynamic of college baseball has changed and and
- 1:27:39good ways and bad and you obviously see it from from a
- 1:27:42different perspective being on both sides of it.
- 1:27:46Do you think they adjustments of like the portal or nil has been
- 1:27:50good for college? Baseball, I love the Exposure.
- 1:27:56Now, that baseball the college baseball is getting compared to
- 1:27:59what it used to be. I mean, there was very few
- 1:28:01times, thank goodness and 05 hockey went on strike so that we
- 1:28:04could, you know, be on TV. And that was great.
- 1:28:07And it was, it was awesome for college baseball.
- 1:28:10I think that kind of started to see the interest in and now
- 1:28:14you're getting all the games on ESPN plus and and all that and
- 1:28:17you guys in the SEC network, AC all the other stuff, and I think
- 1:28:20it's great. But do you think it's, it's
- 1:28:23changed being covering the SEC and working with that, and ESPN
- 1:28:26those nil and Transporters has? It has it changed the whole
- 1:28:31dynamic of college baseball. And, and how this parody change
- 1:28:36is it? Is it better?
- 1:28:37Is it worse? Depends on who you talkin' about
- 1:28:40like for the player. I think it's well for some
- 1:28:42players, it's better. I mean if you get an opportunity
- 1:28:45to go somewhere else, you can make money, then then, You know,
- 1:28:48it's that's a good situation to be when you're 19 years old. has
- 1:28:54it helped Harrity know, but that being said, You know, I mean, we
- 1:28:58had Coastal Carolina playing at the final this year.
- 1:29:02You know, Arkansas Little Rock had a losing record and took LSU
- 1:29:06to seven games and Regional and dander beat them.
- 1:29:08So the game still, I mean baseball is an incredible
- 1:29:12equalizer because you can hit it on the barrel 27 times, but if
- 1:29:16you hit it at somebody 27 times and they catch it, it doesn't
- 1:29:19matter. You're out.
- 1:29:21It was it was good. Exit Velo, though.
- 1:29:23It was good activity. Yeah, exactly.
- 1:29:26Yes, you'd rather have more than less and most things, but I
- 1:29:31mean, in basketball, if you make a perfect shot, it goes in and
- 1:29:34baseball. The only perfect thing
- 1:29:35offensively, is you hit it in the seats?
- 1:29:36That's it. Other than that, somebody
- 1:29:38Megaplex. So job.
- 1:29:39I, I love the college game right now.
- 1:29:42The other thing I love is You know, more College, you guys are
- 1:29:46getting the big legs quicker. The whole idea of you gotta,
- 1:29:49wait, you gotta go every step. Paul schemes is the best college
- 1:29:53pitcher I've ever seen in my life.
- 1:29:55Strasbourg was second, but schemes is the best I've ever
- 1:29:58seen. And the fact that the Pirates
- 1:30:00are like we chewing the big League's like right now because
- 1:30:03you're as good as any one of the world.
- 1:30:06I mean, what he spent a year in a minor League's maybe that
- 1:30:08never used to happen. We were playing, it didn't
- 1:30:10happen. If you got there in two years,
- 1:30:12it was quick, but now it's, you can play you go.
- 1:30:15The amount of guys that go to the big leaks that you're after,
- 1:30:18they're drafted. The last year's has been seven
- 1:30:20or eight guys. It never used to be that way.
- 1:30:22So College baseball's on a really good spot and I think the
- 1:30:25Major League Baseball is a good indicator of that.
- 1:30:27Because they pushed these college guys, the big league
- 1:30:29level pretty quick. So, you were talking about it
- 1:30:32earlier a little bit, with the Brewers with the fact that
- 1:30:34they're doing really well, for a small Market team.
- 1:30:35We've heard this debate with like the payroll discrepancies,
- 1:30:37like we had Corey hard on the show yesterday he was talking
- 1:30:40about, maybe you should have a salary floor, we are yes 11.
- 1:30:43Yeah and you give it a few minutes.
- 1:30:45Yeah. So he was talking about a salary
- 1:30:47floor in reference of the Brewers obviously, too, and he
- 1:30:50also played for the Pirates as well, and they weren't spending.
- 1:30:52And then you have these are these people that want to salary
- 1:30:55cap for more for more parody. Rob Manford wants a salary cap,
- 1:30:58these players are annoyed. What are your thoughts about
- 1:31:00that whole discrepancy and payroll that you seeing in
- 1:31:02baseball? I be for a floor.
- 1:31:05I wouldn't be for a cab. I mean, it depends on what
- 1:31:08you're looking for. Like, I mean, if you want parody
- 1:31:10so take like Freedom of Choice, out of the equation.
- 1:31:14If you want parody, then you want to salary.
- 1:31:17Because it limits, what? Somebody who has the ability to
- 1:31:21spend can go? Do I think that sucks in
- 1:31:24general, like, if You guys have an Advertiser, the calls.
- 1:31:27You and says, I want to pay you 100 Grand to be X.
- 1:31:30Whatever it is, but somebody put a salary cap on you of 50 Grand.
- 1:31:35That makes no sense. So somebody else wants to pay
- 1:31:37you 100 Grand, take on her grand.
- 1:31:40I think that baseball is the same way.
- 1:31:42Now, that being said, I think the luxury tax way that they do,
- 1:31:45it makes a lot of sense. You want to spend more great,
- 1:31:48you can spend a billion dollars. If you want on your on your
- 1:31:52salary, but at the end of the day, some of that is going to
- 1:31:55fund back to those that don't have, you know, the yes money or
- 1:31:59the nest and money, or everything else that goes with
- 1:32:01it. I think that's fine.
- 1:32:02That's fair. It still gives you the freedom
- 1:32:04to do whatever the hell you want, but at the end of the day,
- 1:32:07it does benefit those that are at a disadvantage from a market
- 1:32:10standpoint. So I actually like the system, I
- 1:32:12don't like a hard cap, I just to me it just it's kind of
- 1:32:16Un-American but if you create a different system that says,
- 1:32:20spend all you want, but the more that you spend some others are
- 1:32:23going to get some of it. Yeah, I'm fine with that.
- 1:32:25We are talking a former Brewers pitcher and Kearny ESPN baseball
- 1:32:28analyst, Kyle Peterson, you know, Kyle, this, you know, in
- 1:32:31the beginning, segment of our show, we got into romance for
- 1:32:35trying or is bringing up maybe a geographic realignment and
- 1:32:39Howard how he rose. And obviously, Michael Kay came
- 1:32:42out and, you know, spoke about it.
- 1:32:45They didn't one liked it. The other one didn't like it,
- 1:32:47your thoughts to this thought in Hand of Robin for coming out and
- 1:32:53trying to change the league. Once again that their might be a
- 1:32:56geographic realignment. So I didn't see it.
- 1:32:59Explained it to my club well so I can read off.
- 1:33:03What they're saying, what he wants to do, what what they're
- 1:33:07saying. And I it's it's interesting and
- 1:33:09I'm gonna put it up over here so they could see it held on.
- 1:33:13I'm gonna bring it up right over here.
- 1:33:14So what Roman for wants to do, hold on, baseball commissioner
- 1:33:18Rob, Manford discussed the geographic realignment and
- 1:33:21expansion on ESPN Sunday night, Sunday night, baseball this past
- 1:33:25weekend. Mannford explained that the
- 1:33:27geographic realignment could help save a lot of wear and tear
- 1:33:31on players due to travel and all.
- 1:33:34So be better for regional markets since teams would rarely
- 1:33:39start late for the East Coast audience, or early for those for
- 1:33:44the West Coast as well. USA Today is Bob Knight and go
- 1:33:47reports that Nashville is a city that wants an MLB franchise and
- 1:33:51also Fox Sports. Believe that Charlotte and
- 1:33:54Portland are very good. Place is for a baseball
- 1:33:57organization. For the future.
- 1:33:59So your thoughts to that. So is the realignment based on
- 1:34:02what division they're in, or based on the schedule, they play
- 1:34:05Jesus. Like, for example, like the Red
- 1:34:09Sox, the Phillies, the Mets, and Yankees kind of all be in the
- 1:34:11same division type thing. I mean, I don't know.
- 1:34:13I was with the Brewers when they went American League National
- 1:34:17League. And I know the Astros did the
- 1:34:20same thing. I The AL East is beautiful like
- 1:34:26the way it is. I know Tampa is a little bit
- 1:34:27different but just historically, the rest of it, I I don't think
- 1:34:32it's broke. Hmm.
- 1:34:34I mean Java, you had to do the cross-country thing.
- 1:34:36I never did. I wasn't there very long, but I
- 1:34:39mean it sucks but they pay. You decent to do it.
- 1:34:41Like, if that's your biggest issue?
- 1:34:45Life ain't bad. To be honest, I don't, I think
- 1:34:49we're trying to fix something, and I'll give honestly, I'll
- 1:34:53give the commissioner credit for this.
- 1:34:54They don't sit. And not have ideas.
- 1:34:57You may not like the right ideas.
- 1:34:59But I think the pitch clock makes sense.
- 1:35:02They've spent the game up, there's more stolen bases, I
- 1:35:05think it's a good thing. I don't like the god of face
- 1:35:07three guys thing. I think that's stupid but It so
- 1:35:12not every idea everybody is going to believe in but at the
- 1:35:15end of the day, they're coming up with ideas.
- 1:35:16Let's think about this. Let's think about this the way
- 1:35:19that you explained it. This one to me seems like we're
- 1:35:23trying to solve for something that doesn't feel that broke but
- 1:35:27at the end of the day, I don't know.
- 1:35:28I think that. I mean it's pretty regionalized
- 1:35:30now. Yeah.
- 1:35:31I don't know why I have to do it anymore.
- 1:35:32I don't think they're gonna do it and I think obviously this is
- 1:35:35a story and there's got a headlines.
- 1:35:37Yeah, of course because there's nothing else to talk about.
- 1:35:40There's no basketball, there's no hockey, there's no football
- 1:35:43and Little League World Series. Oh, stop.
- 1:35:45You, you think the world wants to talk about the Little League
- 1:35:48World Series? So the only the only thing that
- 1:35:55people are trying to figure out is what to talk about.
- 1:35:57And the first thing that pops out in the house headline is
- 1:36:00Mannford is trying or is speaking about a geographic
- 1:36:04realignment. Which by the way, makes no
- 1:36:06sense. I don't think it's going to help
- 1:36:08the league. I don't think it's gonna benefit
- 1:36:09the league. And how is it going to bring
- 1:36:11more re For the league or money for the players.
- 1:36:14So why even bring this up because it doesn't benefit the
- 1:36:17leak? That's all I'm saying.
- 1:36:19Yeah, here's what I would say is it's kind of fun playing cards
- 1:36:22on a plane and if you're taking plain rights away, then that's
- 1:36:26less playing cards on the road. That's what I'm saying.
- 1:36:29As a revolt against that just in and of itself, like, no, we're
- 1:36:33gonna play cards with no, that's fine.
- 1:36:34We can fly the West Coast. We can play cards for five
- 1:36:36hours, that's okay. I agree with you.
- 1:36:38Yeah, that was the right and we talked about this earlier and it
- 1:36:43was it was a big deal. And, you know, nine talking
- 1:36:45about that coast to coast and he always knew if you went Coast to
- 1:36:49Coast, you were guaranteed a day off just because the bargain
- 1:36:51agreement, but that's when so got pissed because we were
- 1:36:54getting the extra days so we could we could literally only
- 1:36:56start three guys, because CC could come back on on normal
- 1:37:00rest and not have to worry about it.
- 1:37:01So that that was kind of the one thing where I looked at this
- 1:37:05realignment, or however you want to say that it makes sense.
- 1:37:10But that's all so time, where I know some teams allow family to
- 1:37:16fly. Ours was, you could only fly on
- 1:37:18the way home, not like two, the series.
- 1:37:20Because I loved because we're trying to get locked in and some
- 1:37:23some teams I played for it. Like there were no families like
- 1:37:26Hey we're here to win like I you can see your family when you get
- 1:37:29home like the plane is our plane so and that's that's one thing
- 1:37:33that people don't get to see like how important those those
- 1:37:35bus rides, you know? Plane rides.
- 1:37:38And it's it's not it's not something to be taken lightly
- 1:37:42that people don't in. You know, once you get out of
- 1:37:44the game, it's those things. You miss, you don't miss the
- 1:37:46grind and all that it's, you know, the rain delays and you
- 1:37:49know, it's the up and downs when you get to the hotel and be
- 1:37:52like, hey we're all meeting down here and we're going to whatever
- 1:37:55Steakhouse or whatever. So yeah, it's just, I don't, I
- 1:37:59don't think it makes sense. I think the players would would
- 1:38:04have a little bit of backlash to it in in regards to the certain
- 1:38:09things that come with it. Extracurriculars being probably
- 1:38:13one of them. I mean, let's just call it for
- 1:38:16what it is. You know, that's, that's a lot
- 1:38:18of, a lot of flying and doing all that stuff.
- 1:38:21But yeah, I just, I think baseball is getting to a good
- 1:38:24place. I do want to ask, like you
- 1:38:27mentioned some of the changes that have been made, are there?
- 1:38:30Some, you don't like, I mean, because I, I'm a baseball here.
- 1:38:33I, I like to keep the Integrity of the game, and what God is
- 1:38:36here to love the game. Was there, is there one
- 1:38:40specifically that you like better pitch?
- 1:38:43Clock would not affected me because I want to get it and go.
- 1:38:45Anyways, I didn't I You know, there's there's some human rain
- 1:38:48delays and we all know some of those guys like, dude, just
- 1:38:50throw the ball. Gosh, dang it.
- 1:38:53Cam just gave up a perfect game in the seventh.
- 1:38:55Oh yeah, I know, right? So yeah, that didn't bother me
- 1:39:00the bases, whatever. Little bit bigger here, I agree
- 1:39:03with you. Like, think about all the guys
- 1:39:06situation electives that made a living.
- 1:39:09Just coming right down below the world.
- 1:39:11The Javy Lopez is, you know, those guys left.
- 1:39:14These just coming in to get guys and that's what they did.
- 1:39:16And now it's like, you gotta phase three and that takes away
- 1:39:20a little bit of the chest match and that's changed here with I
- 1:39:24hated it sucked at but oh, yeah, it wasn't fun like a fun but I
- 1:39:28couldn't do anything else. That's kind of boring.
- 1:39:29But The phase three guys thing, I don't know.
- 1:39:32I just think it takes some of the strategy out of it that Mean
- 1:39:37kind of like this realignment thing.
- 1:39:38I feel like you're trying a little bit too hard.
- 1:39:39I get the speed of that thing and they needed to do that and
- 1:39:42baseball. And he used to be at a Ideally a
- 1:39:45three-hour Les pays but I don't if you want to go left, right
- 1:39:48left. And I said his line up that way
- 1:39:50and you want to face it that way.
- 1:39:51I'm totally fine. so I would ask for the Brewers who do you think
- 1:39:55is the biggest threat to them in the national league right now,
- 1:39:58and why I mean, I would say I would say the Phillies but I
- 1:40:04don't, I don't know the wheeler situation.
- 1:40:07I mean if they is he done down here but they're gonna play it
- 1:40:13out, it could be longer. I mean, I think that's kind of
- 1:40:17the for me. The biggest Factor there.
- 1:40:19And I don't know. I mean, you can't discount the
- 1:40:22Dodgers just because it's a Dodgers.
- 1:40:24It is amazing, though. That I mean when you go look at
- 1:40:27the starting rotation and I didn't go like 70 for the
- 1:40:30Dodgers. But then go look at the average
- 1:40:33distance that their starters go. It's crazy.
- 1:40:36I mean, it's among the shortest and National League.
- 1:40:39They're better than the Mets though.
- 1:40:39That's how I can't have it. I go more than six innings for
- 1:40:42like twice in the last two months.
- 1:40:44Yeah, are you a mess guy? I am.
- 1:40:46Yes, I see the city Philippine Yeah, you Mets fans of the
- 1:40:53greatest. I mean, it doesn't matter.
- 1:40:54You guys could be 104 right now. There'd be something wrong.
- 1:40:57It is there there was always something and they can still go
- 1:41:02on a heater too. But I, I'd probably take the
- 1:41:05Dodgers first just because they I mean, from the pure talent
- 1:41:08standpoint, I think they have more Um, but I don't know, the
- 1:41:14Phillies feel like they've got something different especially
- 1:41:15that wheeler back. You know, it's fun so funny, you
- 1:41:18bring up the mattes, but as a Jet fan, I feel the same way as
- 1:41:21the Jets. The Jets are always the little
- 1:41:24brother to the Giants and and the Jets have all the talent in
- 1:41:28the world, but they can never get over the hump because they
- 1:41:30don't have a quarterback. The Mets, they get one Soto.
- 1:41:32They have Pete Alonso, they got all this this Challenge on their
- 1:41:36roster and Francisco Lindor and they fall flat on their face.
- 1:41:40Once again, at the end of the season, it's typical New York
- 1:41:43Fashion but before we let you go because I know you're busy guy
- 1:41:46there, you brought up Paul schemes a little while ago and
- 1:41:50Paul schemes. Has not been very happy over
- 1:41:54there in Pittsburgh. As a matter of fact, he's told
- 1:41:57the organization as what we've heard through his agent and some
- 1:42:02friends that are close to him that he wants to be traded.
- 1:42:05What are you think? If you were a GM or you were the
- 1:42:09GM of the Pittsburgh Pirates? What are you think?
- 1:42:11You can get for Paul schemes and who would you treat him to if it
- 1:42:16becomes if he becomes available. Well who I'm not sure.
- 1:42:19But I would say this, I would make sure that I mean it's a
- 1:42:23whole Almost. I mean it's like a Herschel
- 1:42:26Walker Hall. like, the one that is is doesn't even really make
- 1:42:31sense I He's generational. They've got what?
- 1:42:37At least three years of control? Maybe four left and obviously
- 1:42:40it's gonna get I mean, he's gonna break every arbitration
- 1:42:42record there is but that being said, they still have control.
- 1:42:46I understand it. And if you could look at the
- 1:42:48numbers, I know the last month and a half, it's been a little
- 1:42:52bit different but still if that's a little bit different
- 1:42:54down that that's like one of the greatest ever but I don't
- 1:42:59remember the steady one. I like ten stars were at an era
- 1:43:02of one and a half and you know, one way right?
- 1:43:03It was something crazy. So you can understand.
- 1:43:07I mean there's just a I'd like to win games component of it.
- 1:43:12But the other thing is that's where the system works.
- 1:43:14So you can demand a trade but at the end of the day they control
- 1:43:18you for the next three or four years.
- 1:43:19So they don't necessarily need to do that.
- 1:43:22I don't know what the Pirates are trying to do is an
- 1:43:25organization and why I mean I don't know if trading schemes
- 1:43:28are getting four or five guys back in a couple of you get
- 1:43:30traffic but If that ultimately makes it better at the end of
- 1:43:35the day, goes bad and they haven't shown the willingness or
- 1:43:38the interest to spend and so you can make any trade you want, but
- 1:43:42if you don't spend to some extent, unless you're the Rays
- 1:43:45and I guess the Brewers to some extent.
- 1:43:48It's not gonna happen, so I get it.
- 1:43:51Why he would be want to be somewhere else that you win
- 1:43:53right now, but at the end of the day man, I mean it's still
- 1:43:57pretty good to be Paul schemes, like life, ain't bad to be Paul
- 1:44:02skeins. And if you gotta hang out in
- 1:44:03Pittsburgh, another three or four years and then Somebody
- 1:44:05gives you 400 million dollars to go somewhere else.
- 1:44:07That's not bad either. It's crazy.
- 1:44:10And that's why I think Paul skeens is one of the best young
- 1:44:13pitchers in baseball, but you would have to give up a hole and
- 1:44:16we talked about the big Market teams.
- 1:44:18The Dodgers have a very good farm system.
- 1:44:20You look at me the Braves one of these organizations that are
- 1:44:23willing to give away the talent that they have in the pharmacy
- 1:44:27system like the Yankees. They have no talent in their
- 1:44:29farm system. Who are they willing to give up
- 1:44:31Spencer Jones? They're ranked 28th right now
- 1:44:33and everybody says, well, the Yankees are a team that Paul's
- 1:44:36would absolutely be able or enjoy to go to.
- 1:44:39Yeah, there is a lot of teams that Paul's, You Gotta Give Up
- 1:44:43talent and they don't have any. So well it's a problem, the
- 1:44:46biggest thing for skins right now, I mean in Java knows this
- 1:44:50like the control piece is massive for an organization.
- 1:44:53I mean if you've got control of a guy for three years And even
- 1:44:58ultimately if arbitrations gonna cost you a bunch of money, it's
- 1:45:00going to cost you less than going out and sign it, you know,
- 1:45:03a picture to a six or seven year deal.
- 1:45:06So, if you have control an arbitration allows you to do
- 1:45:09things over the next three years, there's significantly
- 1:45:11more value to that. Than going and getting a guy who
- 1:45:15has a year left because you got a three-year runway for somebody
- 1:45:18who is at the you know the Pinnacle of his career, he
- 1:45:21started the last two All-Star games.
- 1:45:23I don't know if the market could be any higher for anybody.
- 1:45:26So if you're the Pirates and you really want to restart and do a
- 1:45:30cheat, probably a good time to start doing it because when he
- 1:45:33hits arbitration, he gets help a lot more expensive.
- 1:45:36Yeah, I mean, he's gonna set a record.
- 1:45:38I mean, and you think about it that that six years basically,
- 1:45:42of control, And he's I mean he's going to set records as far as I
- 1:45:47mean, going into free agency. He's probably gonna have a cool
- 1:45:49buck and his pocket 120 and then go get another 400.
- 1:45:53But at the same time he still going to be able to be under
- 1:45:59control and he has no say. So having The Pirates have the
- 1:46:04ability like, sorry, you may not like what we're doing, but
- 1:46:07there's nothing you can do about it.
- 1:46:09So, I mean, You gonna cry over spilled milk, or just go to your
- 1:46:14job and make more money. Are you going to be pissed about
- 1:46:16it? And soul can be like, okay?
- 1:46:18And then you go and have a shity year on your draw year.
- 1:46:22Then yeah I mean I would tell you this and I don't I mean I
- 1:46:25wasn't around him a whole lot but I was around him.
- 1:46:27Some like there's two was in the Air Force Academy for two years.
- 1:46:31He wanted to be a fighter pilot, he wanted to, and, and I mean,
- 1:46:37everybody that's around him Raves about every part of it
- 1:46:39aside from the fact that he's as good as there is on the field.
- 1:46:42But What? I don't think he's gonna do is
- 1:46:45just say screw you guys and check like he's the DNA didn't
- 1:46:48say. So I think he continues to do
- 1:46:52what he's going to do dummies I gotta say anything about it.
- 1:46:54I mean it you know if if you were playing for the Pirates
- 1:46:57right now and you're one of the best players in the game, you
- 1:46:58probably want to play somewhere else.
- 1:47:00I think that makes sense. But that being said, if they
- 1:47:04take that approach which I would totally understand them.
- 1:47:06I think he still continues to do what he does.
- 1:47:10Now does it wear on you after five or six years, maybe?
- 1:47:14You might like you you're like, hold on dude.
- 1:47:16I keep doing this every five days.
- 1:47:19And we're out of contention like three weeks into August.
- 1:47:24I I can't do this. Maybe, I don't know.
- 1:47:27I also think he's a little bit different than most Which is why
- 1:47:32I think the market would be even better.
- 1:47:33I mean, you're getting the getting a freak on him out, and
- 1:47:36I think you're getting a freak athlete with a I mean, a fighter
- 1:47:40pilot mind, there's not a lot built like that.
- 1:47:42No, no Kyle. We really appreciate the time.
- 1:47:46You're you're working. You're working man.
- 1:47:47Now for ESPN, you're analyzing all the different things in
- 1:47:52baseball, by the way, how did, how did you receive?
- 1:47:55How did you get that job, man? I mean, obviously you're a
- 1:47:59former baseball player but now you're working for ESPN, who
- 1:48:01reached out to you, where you, you're now one of the bigger
- 1:48:04analysts right now for baseball I get released.
- 1:48:09That was the start of it. I wouldn't good enough anymore.
- 1:48:13I got released in 2003 in spring training.
- 1:48:16Hmm. Yeah, and my agent was Scott
- 1:48:18Boris and I asked Scott, I said I've always wanted to do TV, do
- 1:48:23you mind calling ESPN and see if there's no opening?
- 1:48:25It was the first year they were doing super regionals.
- 1:48:28And they needed bodies honestly because they hadn't done it
- 1:48:30before. So I thought I was gonna go do
- 1:48:33two games. I had a job lined up in
- 1:48:35Minneapolis to go trade bombs, which I didn't even really know
- 1:48:38what that meant and I never started and that was 23 years
- 1:48:43ago. So I thought it was going to be
- 1:48:45two games and they haven't told me to leave you 20 years, man,
- 1:48:4820 years with ESPN. And that's a great story man and
- 1:48:52we really appreciate the time. We'd love to get you on.
- 1:48:54If the Yankees, make the playoffs, which I don't believe
- 1:48:57they will. But when the playoffs come
- 1:48:59around, we would love to get you on the show and talk a little
- 1:49:01playoff baseball with you. Get it anytime Java calls.
- 1:49:05I'm good man. All right you guys I mean I feel
- 1:49:07like we're tight. Well this as long as I don't
- 1:49:09know that. If we're that site, give me a
- 1:49:12job at the ESPN. KP.
- 1:49:13Let's go. But I wear a tank top next time
- 1:49:16and I got a chance. Obviously, my my dress code was
- 1:49:18not good today, so I apologize. Well, hold on, one second job.
- 1:49:22I just mentioned ESPN. He said he wouldn't play.
- 1:49:24He wouldn't work for ESPN. Now he wants a job with ESPN.
- 1:49:27I'll get, hey, I don't know. You'll take a page that you're
- 1:49:30not just talked about, you know, we have to get, we have to get
- 1:49:40there first. It's been a struggle.
- 1:49:42Oh, yes. As we always say, as we call
- 1:49:45them, as we always throw ball. Anyways, we really appreciate
- 1:49:49you. Kyle keep up the good work, and
- 1:49:51we'll talk to you soon. Bye.
- 1:49:53Budgets be well, Thanksgiving Kyle Peterson, ladies and
- 1:49:57gentlemen, ESPN, 23 years, as you heard it by him and it's,
- 1:50:01it's pretty interesting. His story as a pitcher and
- 1:50:03really what he's done over the last couple of years and become
- 1:50:07one of the bigger analysts for ESPN.
- 1:50:09And he worked with Aaron Boone. So, he knows a little bit about
- 1:50:12Aaron Boone, he gave you his take.
- 1:50:14He's not blaming Aaron Boone for any of this turbulence for the
- 1:50:18New York Yankees. And it's, it is turbulence.
- 1:50:20So if you're a Yankee fan and you want to point your fingers,
- 1:50:22Kyle Peterson says, you shouldn't be pointing your
- 1:50:25fingers at him. That's all I'm saying.
- 1:50:28And, and again, you got to point your fingers at somebody and
- 1:50:31it's gonna go to the manager. I think it should be to Brian
- 1:50:33Cashman. Finally, I am not one to blame
- 1:50:36Brian Cashman for anything. But Brian Cashman is the cause
- 1:50:39of this destruction of this team.
- 1:50:41And I think the way he put this team together over this past
- 1:50:45season is the reason why the Yankees are really not a playoff
- 1:50:49team and they're borderline playoff team.
- 1:50:51He says he's the four games out. By the end of the next week, I
- 1:50:55think they might be five or six games out.
- 1:50:57They're just not good, guys. So, as a Yankee fan, you just
- 1:51:00have to step away and realize that this team is just really
- 1:51:03bad. Anyways, another real question
- 1:51:05is, how big of a party will Java throw in that happen?
- 1:51:07Yeah, that was another thing. Java went to the ESPN thing.
- 1:51:10Wait a second. As soon as he is a give me a job
- 1:51:12with ESPN KP I would write. How was that?
- 1:51:15I I we went from back and forth offers saying out I'm not
- 1:51:20working for ESPN. I will never work for you ESPN
- 1:51:23and then he says, Hey KP get me a job when he has been.
- 1:51:25If I get it covered the College World Series for ESPN.
- 1:51:29You sure you're sure shit up doing it. oh, of course but
- 1:51:34again you will talk off their I've never said that.
- 1:51:40I first of all you did say that you said you wouldn't work for
- 1:51:44ESPN. Did you not say that?
- 1:51:46Oh, wait for anybody right to pay?
- 1:51:48That's true. I guess you're right about that.
- 1:51:50Anyways, Speedy six pack of the week.
- 1:51:54Let's have us for the speed six pack of the way.
- 1:52:04Well, we do a little bit of a bonus bonus five beers.
- 1:52:07Thanks to our friend West before we get to my six-pack as well
- 1:52:10with some CFL picks this week. He's got Toronto covering plus
- 1:52:15three at home against the BC Lions.
- 1:52:18He's got the he's got the Winnipeg Blue Bombers tomorrow
- 1:52:21covering -4 and a half. They are the favorites on the
- 1:52:23road against Montreal and they've got, he's got Edmonton
- 1:52:27home, favorites, minus one and a half against Ottawa, and he's
- 1:52:31got some college football as well.
- 1:52:32He's got Kansas minus 12 and he's got Iowa, State, plus three
- 1:52:35and a half in week, zero of college football.
- 1:52:38So to Westford, giving us some parlay picks for this week.
- 1:52:42As for my six pack, we have a lot of football.
- 1:52:44Number six. Yes, we are a lot of NFL news, a
- 1:52:47lot of defensive players will start with the Patriots.
- 1:52:49They're talking about the yesterday trying to trade for a
- 1:52:51big name player. They're also trying to trade
- 1:52:53safety Kyle, Duggar who's had some good years.
- 1:52:55But last year, 7 horse coverage, great among safeties 1004.13
- 1:53:00passer rating, 14th horse, overall, 90 tackles and After
- 1:53:04having 90 tackles a multiple intercepts, since each of the
- 1:53:06last two years before that, he's gonna be included in this kind
- 1:53:09of trade like for a big swing. Where could he trade him
- 1:53:12somewhere else? You think he's will be
- 1:53:13interested. Well arrows, I think is sick
- 1:53:17right now, but I'll comment on Duggar.
- 1:53:20Duggar is one of those guys that got a big contract in his play
- 1:53:23fell off almost immediately. He had like career year contract
- 1:53:27year. I love the contract to your
- 1:53:29guys. He just hasn't been that player.
- 1:53:31They're not going to get a high draft pick for him.
- 1:53:34If they move them, so that if they have to decide, is it worth
- 1:53:37it? Keeping, you know, maybe an
- 1:53:39average to below average Talent on a big contract or getting
- 1:53:42nothing for him. They have to decide.
- 1:53:43They have the depth to move them.
- 1:53:44I don't know if they do, I really don't know.
- 1:53:48Yeah, I know I was thinking the same thing.
- 1:53:50It's like if push comes to show, do you, but do you really have
- 1:53:54the depth to be able to do that? And will you pull the trigger?
- 1:53:56I don't know if they do, honestly.
- 1:54:00I think they're going to add something, but I think they're
- 1:54:02gonna go try to wear though. I, I think they want to receive
- 1:54:05her. I think they want a big, big
- 1:54:07name receiver, or if they could somehow, you know, pull like
- 1:54:11Trey Hendricks in a way from the Bengals.
- 1:54:14They said they're not interested in a price.
- 1:54:15The Cincinnati's offering right now is what I'm hearing.
- 1:54:17Yeah, I don't think so, I but look, it's receiver Arrow.
- 1:54:22You talked about it the other day yesterday that, you know,
- 1:54:24the Patriots are making a move if they move Kyle, Duggar or
- 1:54:27anything else. It's probably for a receiver,
- 1:54:28right? Yes, absolutely.
- 1:54:30And Terri McClure is the guy that I would believe if, if he
- 1:54:34bump becomes available by Washington, Washington would
- 1:54:37definitely look to trade him. He's not getting 30 million
- 1:54:40dollars. As far as I know, and I
- 1:54:42Washington is not going to dip into their pockets.
- 1:54:45After giving deepo Samuel, the money that they gave him in the
- 1:54:48office. Well, they traded for him and
- 1:54:49they're taking on his contract. So, I do believe that Terry
- 1:54:53McLaren would be the guy, and I think that's where he goes.
- 1:54:55If anywhere he goes to the New England Patriots because they
- 1:54:58have the most money, All right, Speedy number five, former
- 1:55:03Patriots. Matthew Jude on signed on with
- 1:55:04the Miami Dolphins, team always 27th last year in Sac percentage
- 1:55:09of 5.77 specialty just 40 foot for June, just a 43 overall
- 1:55:17grade last year, ranked 194th out of 20010 pass rushers last
- 1:55:21year, can the Dolphins resurrect this defense again?
- 1:55:23Like they did in the second half of the Seas know?
- 1:55:26Know, I just this defense is gonna be really, really bad this
- 1:55:30year. And I'm interested to see how
- 1:55:31this offense is going to work. So, and you look at McDaniel, I
- 1:55:35think he's on a hot seat. I think the team is in a
- 1:55:38position right now. They paid to a lot of money and
- 1:55:40and you're expecting that he's gonna go out there and he's
- 1:55:43gonna stay healthy this year, you know, he's not gonna get out
- 1:55:45of the pocket, you know, he's gonna stay in the pocket and try
- 1:55:47to make every single throw. And that offensive line is
- 1:55:50there's a lot of questions with that offensive line too.
- 1:55:52This season Miami might be one of the worst teams in the AFC
- 1:55:56this year and you're going into the season and you're expecting
- 1:55:59this guy to be resurrected. This defense is really really
- 1:56:02bad. I don't not believe Miami to is
- 1:56:06going to be is gonna jump from a decent defense to a really bad
- 1:56:10defense to another decent defense season.
- 1:56:13I think they're going to be really, really bad this year
- 1:56:15from offense to defense. And I think two of them might be
- 1:56:17knocked out early in the season because that offensive line is
- 1:56:20absolutely horrible. So, Yeah.
- 1:56:24Look as far as, as far as that team goes, I think McDaniel is a
- 1:56:30good coach, but I think they've done a bad job with that roster.
- 1:56:33I look they paid their defensive tackle because who else is there
- 1:56:37to pay? Seriously, like on that roster,
- 1:56:40the Jalen Phillips thing is a shame, you know, too bad
- 1:56:42injuries, two consecutive years, he was playing it.
- 1:56:44I would argue in all pro level when he went down.
- 1:56:46I think that's a bit whenever you lose a pass rusher like
- 1:56:50that. Like we're saying, the Bengals
- 1:56:51are basically shooting themselves in the foot, like,
- 1:56:53doing it kills your team and they're in a real competitive
- 1:56:56division Judean. I always thought was an
- 1:56:58overrated player though. He's like one of those guys who
- 1:57:00gets all the sacks but always, it's like he's collecting
- 1:57:03garbage. He doesn't play the wrong.
- 1:57:05He was good with the Patriots, with the Patriots, he was good
- 1:57:09with a couple of great years but he was always one of those guys
- 1:57:12that collected sacks. And it wasn't like, like,
- 1:57:15sometimes he would be on JJ Watts, like stuff.
- 1:57:17Yeah. It's like garbage points and
- 1:57:19basketball and he was more of a compiler against bad team.
- 1:57:23Like, like the dude. Hey, which if you look at JJ
- 1:57:27Watts career, go look at J, watt was, he could never be the good
- 1:57:32offensive Line's. You look at JJ, watch career.
- 1:57:35Go look at his career. Go look at the defense around
- 1:57:38the Line. He was a more versatile player
- 1:57:39than Juden Judah. I'm just saying, if you look at
- 1:57:42JJ Watts career, I'm not saying JJ Watt.
- 1:57:44Wasn't a good pass rush. He's a Hall of Famer, but if you
- 1:57:46look at his career and you look at the defense, I mean the
- 1:57:50offensive lines, he beats at the top of his game.
- 1:57:53They were what some of the worst offensive lines?
- 1:57:55He would get three sacks or two sacks in a game and then he play
- 1:57:58a good offensive line and not even get one.
- 1:58:01So again you know you're gonna say that JJ wants the same guys
- 1:58:05like him, you know what I mean? But no one's really scheming for
- 1:58:08Jude on. I think, is my point, you know
- 1:58:09what I mean? Like, I don't think, I think
- 1:58:11you're making Jude on a lot worse than he is.
- 1:58:13He, he's a good player. He had a couple of good years
- 1:58:17and I think those years are Beyond him, he's in his thirties
- 1:58:20it's over I think Speedy number four let's go to judeans team
- 1:58:25last year, the Atlanta Falcons, they lost losing offensive,
- 1:58:27lineman, Caleb Kaleb. McGary to a knee injury, not
- 1:58:30confirmed out for the season yet but shouldn't miss a lot of time
- 1:58:32in Atlanta offensive line. That was seventh.
- 1:58:34Overall according to PFF third in rushing yards before rushing
- 1:58:37yards before contact to help out Bichon Robinson and 12th and
- 1:58:40run, block windburn Winery can Atlanta, find something else
- 1:58:43leveling offense without losing somebody like McGarry's, been
- 1:58:47very good for a couple years now.
- 1:58:48Yeah. Yes I mean they've got talent
- 1:58:50over there. I would like to see Kyle Pitts.
- 1:58:52I want to see a little bit more of Kyle Pitts.
- 1:58:54This guy is one of the best tight ends I over the last
- 1:58:58couple of years being drafted. They this guy had a great rookie
- 1:59:01season, he had over 1,000 yards. And since his rookie season,
- 1:59:03he's not putting up the numbers because they're not throwing
- 1:59:06them the ball. It doesn't matter who the coach
- 1:59:08is they've had problems. Giving a guy like Kyle Pitts,
- 1:59:12the opportunity to flourish as a player.
- 1:59:14If that was the case, she should.
- 1:59:16Have traded in to the Cowboys a couple years ago, it would have
- 1:59:19made more sense to trade him away to a team that's going to
- 1:59:21use them to and use his strengths.
- 1:59:23I think, Kyle pits definitely needs to be a guy that they use
- 1:59:27in this offense a lot more. And if, if they value their
- 1:59:30season and expect this season to be a playoff season, you get,
- 1:59:34you get your best players involved.
- 1:59:38Like yeah, I agree. Listen.
- 1:59:42Speedy. If you're interested to talk
- 1:59:43about the offensive line, don't forget that they have the best
- 1:59:46Garden football and Chris Lindstrom on their line.
- 1:59:48Jake Matthews is no slouch as a left tackle either.
- 1:59:51He's a good. He's a good not great player.
- 1:59:52So can they recover from losing? The Gary, who's probably better
- 1:59:55than Matthews on the other side of the line?
- 1:59:57It depends. I think the Panic is being a
- 2:00:00little bit more mobile than Kirk Cousins will help as well with
- 2:00:03that and look. It's only a problem to me
- 2:00:07because panics is a lefty And McGarry is The Blind Side for a
- 2:00:11left-handed quarterback. So if they, they may need to
- 2:00:15move Matthews to the right side or really hope that they have a
- 2:00:19good enough, right? Tackle to put there, that's the
- 2:00:21only thing that worries me but it look, it's it's still early.
- 2:00:25It's not official that he's gonna be out a long, long time
- 2:00:27and Gary. So let's see what happens on
- 2:00:29number three, double up on your tight ends, too.
- 2:00:32That's what I would think if you're having problems on your
- 2:00:35offensive line and you're losing players play with two, two tight
- 2:00:39ends special one. That's yeah, dude, something of
- 2:00:41that magnitude. I mean, that's the problem with
- 2:00:44Raheem Morris Romney Morris over the years, has made terrible
- 2:00:48mistakes as a coach. And that's I don't even know how
- 2:00:51he got another job. I didn't, I disagree with them.
- 2:00:54They should have higher Bill Belichick, well, that Belichick
- 2:00:57wasn't good enough. So they had to go to.
- 2:00:58Yeah. All right.
- 2:01:00Mm-hmm. All right.
- 2:01:02There you go. Speedy.
- 2:01:02Next one. All right.
- 2:01:03So for one good offensive line to a terrible offensive line the
- 2:01:06Cincinnati Bengals lose their guard, Cordell Wilson, for the
- 2:01:09season who was their best rated offensive lineman last year.
- 2:01:11He was so 83rd among 125 guards. You talk about the concern with
- 2:01:15their defense yesterday and he concern for this offense line.
- 2:01:19Go ahead, Joe burrow. What do we going on these
- 2:01:22offensive line situations? I guess he just wants to have me
- 2:01:26talk because I just love, talking offensive line.
- 2:01:28The Bangles did something a couple of years ago, that was
- 2:01:31weird. They decided to get three guys
- 2:01:34that weighed like a 1,000. Pounds combined to play on their
- 2:01:38offensive line and it didn't work because you can't have
- 2:01:41that. You need to have guys that are
- 2:01:43more Dynamic athletically and they wanted to be like a power
- 2:01:46run team and Joe burrow will be able to make up for it.
- 2:01:49Well, if you lose, you know, the inside of the pocket, we know
- 2:01:52what's going to happen, they're gonna be behind because their
- 2:01:55defense is bad. They're gonna have to throw a
- 2:01:58whole lot and Joe burrow. If he gets hurt, we already saw
- 2:02:01what that season looks like when you have Browning, or whoever it
- 2:02:04is in there, even though they got great receivers.
- 2:02:07If you can't get past protect long enough for them to run more
- 2:02:10than 10 yards, down the field, you don't need a receiver and
- 2:02:13who's there in alignment and who's their number one.
- 2:02:15Running back Brown. I mean, they don't have a number
- 2:02:18one, running back, that was good, he's not a one between the
- 2:02:22tax, he's not a one. He's a, he's a two, he's a
- 2:02:25Powerhouse back. That could go north and south.
- 2:02:27He's not really an East-West guy that I'm the best thing about
- 2:02:30Brown is his receiving, right? It's not my mom.
- 2:02:33Then I get a run like a like, if they could get like you invested
- 2:02:37into two wide receivers, you have no pass rush.
- 2:02:40And if Craig Hendrickson leaves and you're, you're have all
- 2:02:44these problems on the offensive line.
- 2:02:45Where are you scoring? How are you gonna score?
- 2:02:48You're going to be one. Dimensional teams are going to
- 2:02:50know your one dimensional and what are they going to do?
- 2:02:52They're going to double team on your two star wide receivers and
- 2:02:55you're going to try to make the other guys beat you and and
- 2:02:57teams are gonna figure that out and then Joker is gonna be put
- 2:03:01In Harm's Way, he's gonna get knocked the hell out.
- 2:03:02That's what's gonna happen. I think it's a terrible.
- 2:03:05Terrible move what they're doing to Trey Hendrick.
- 2:03:07And the problems that they have no backup players, they have no
- 2:03:11depth to that offensive line. That's the big problem and as a
- 2:03:15New York Jets fan, we all know about depths over the last
- 2:03:18couple years, the Jets have lost more offensive lineman in a
- 2:03:21season that any team and football on the last five years
- 2:03:23and I could tell you, it doesn't bold.
- 2:03:25Well, when you lose offensive lineman, They could have got
- 2:03:28three good line for the price of t, Higgins.
- 2:03:30He got a theater to remember that.
- 2:03:31I think that was a huge mistake by them Speedy.
- 2:03:34What do we have to two? Yep.
- 2:03:36So go ahead, the next one would be legaria Sneed who looks like
- 2:03:39he's going to be able to play. He played only five games last
- 2:03:42year at a really bad year. 91.8 passer, rating allowed and got a
- 2:03:45big contract. I think was the biggest in the
- 2:03:47league before certain got paid. So, can he bounce back to the
- 2:03:50form with the, with the Chiefs, you're talking about the Titans
- 2:03:52offense. Yesterday, the defense, they
- 2:03:53were good at the beginning of the season and all the sudden
- 2:03:55fell off. Oh, we really going into this
- 2:03:59neat conversation. I got, I'm not even gonna speak
- 2:04:05about this. Why we've been talking about the
- 2:04:07Kansas City Chiefs, we really saw the Titans, you brought up
- 2:04:12the Kansas City Chiefs, the Titans sock.
- 2:04:15As we heard about Shanahan's on the hot seat, does it really
- 2:04:19matter if need is making the kind of money that he's making
- 2:04:21a, what position? He's going to be playing on the
- 2:04:24Titans. The Titans defense was good last
- 2:04:26year, they're gonna be good this year.
- 2:04:27It doesn't really matter because their coaches on a hot seat and
- 2:04:31they're in a division right now. That sucks, but there are so
- 2:04:34playing. They got to deal with teams,
- 2:04:36like Houston and CJ, Stroud, two games in a season, they're not
- 2:04:40gonna be good Tennessee's, not making the playoffs singing to
- 2:04:42be looking for a new coach, who cares, about Sneed?
- 2:04:44It doesn't matter if he's playing Kansas City.
- 2:04:46It doesn't matter how much money is making.
- 2:04:48It doesn't matter if he stays healthy or not.
- 2:04:49Tennessee is going to lose this year.
- 2:04:52I don't know why we're bringing this up next question.
- 2:04:56I I think needs a good player, I just think he's had been hurt
- 2:05:00and it was a bone bruise, this time.
- 2:05:02It might not be anything that serious but your right Speedee
- 2:05:05was down after getting paid a lot of guys contract year.
- 2:05:09No play out of their mind and then you know they let up after
- 2:05:13that. And that was sneeze.
- 2:05:14Let's see if he comes back with anything.
- 2:05:15Speedy. Number one running out with the
- 2:05:18New York Jets. They made two moves for
- 2:05:20defensive. Tackles today, a big need for
- 2:05:22them. They wanted to draft.
- 2:05:23One didn't get one. They trade for Harrison
- 2:05:24Phillips, the long time Buffalo Bill.
- 2:05:26They got him from the Vikings who was first in assisted,
- 2:05:28tackles won defensive tackles last year, and they also get to
- 2:05:31Ellie a big guy from the Cincinnati Bengals.
- 2:05:33A one year deal with the Jets, need some help in run defense.
- 2:05:35Do they get it here? Philips is good.
- 2:05:38We'll see if he could stay healthy, they needed defensive
- 2:05:41tackle help. The Jets have a quality of
- 2:05:44defensive lineman on this roster.
- 2:05:46The problem is they had no nose tackle.
- 2:05:48A defensive tackles for backups will be used a little bit with
- 2:05:52Quinton Williams is going to be your every down.
- 2:05:56Kind of nose, tackle defensive tackle, but Philip's is a good
- 2:05:59player. He's a good addition.
- 2:06:00The other kid is he's Hefty and I don't know why we're bringing
- 2:06:05Phillips was the name. That's the guy that the Jets
- 2:06:08brought in, from the Vikings, he's had, he's been up and down
- 2:06:10in his career, but when he's on, he's on, so it with the moves
- 2:06:14that they made, they only give up what, two six round draft?
- 2:06:16Yeah, they're not they didn't give up much, we'll see how it
- 2:06:20all works. And Phillips has to stay healthy
- 2:06:21which he's had problems over the last couple of years.
- 2:06:24I think they want to have like a NASCAR package for pass rushing
- 2:06:28putting like, Jermaine Johnson inside, you know, so that they
- 2:06:31just need like a first second down guy like Phillips to stuff
- 2:06:35the middle. They just don't have a lot of
- 2:06:37depth there. It's kind of curious that they
- 2:06:38waited this long to get it. Look, you can get nose.
- 2:06:42Tackles in the fifth fourth round.
- 2:06:43I mean, famously snacks, and was a fifth round pick for the Jets
- 2:06:46and he wrecks trying for them, you know?
- 2:06:48So it's, it's not like he can't find guys like that.
- 2:06:51I think they found a good one for less than the value.
- 2:06:54They would have to pay for him in the draft.
- 2:06:56So it's a good move Jets, they're playing.
- 2:06:58Everything's been pretty smart from the Jets man, it's been
- 2:07:01pretty smart. It's all about coaching and
- 2:07:03Aaron Glenn. Looks like he knows what he's
- 2:07:05doing at least halfway he's doing we know, Bambi didn't know
- 2:07:09what he was doing. And now he's gonna have to deal
- 2:07:10with the San Francisco crop as we know, they're in the tablets
- 2:07:14every single week. I, I see more things about San
- 2:07:17Francisco over the last couple weeks, as then I have seen in
- 2:07:21the last three, four months, three, four years.
- 2:07:24So Oh, I mean, I don't know what's going on with San
- 2:07:27Francisco but you know, they're that Kyle Shanahan's on the hot
- 2:07:30seat and I don't even know if John Lynch is gonna keep his
- 2:07:32job. At the end of this year he can
- 2:07:34go back to the booth. He was a very good broadcaster,
- 2:07:37he was one of the best for Fox. I think that's where he heads
- 2:07:40back to. Maybe you put him with, I don't
- 2:07:43know. You put them with wholly.
- 2:07:45He was with maybe you don't put them with Burkhart, maybe you
- 2:07:48put them with somebody else. Maybe you add him.
- 2:07:50What? What combination is Burkhart.
- 2:07:53The number one guy right now with Brady right now, which
- 2:07:56anything's better than what? You're not Brady's, not going
- 2:07:59anywhere. So you would have to find
- 2:08:01somebody that you can work with him.
- 2:08:03Maybe a son of the CBS, maybe he works within Eagle.
- 2:08:07That would be nice. That would be interesting
- 2:08:09because I don't, I didn't really like the Mark.
- 2:08:11Sanchez combination? That was absolutely horrific.
- 2:08:14That is to a college football. It's pretty bad.
- 2:08:15So dude, I don't know what CBS is thinking right now and I like
- 2:08:20Mark, Sanchez as a person, he seems like a pretty cool
- 2:08:23Collective guy. I know.
- 2:08:24Papa knows him, but him as a broadcaster, a play-by-play guy,
- 2:08:28I don't want to hear what Mark Sanchez has to say.
- 2:08:31We all know about what he did as a as a football player as the
- 2:08:34butt fumbling captain of the New York Jets, I could care less
- 2:08:38what Mark, Sanchez has to say when it comes to play by play
- 2:08:42like I and he goes, he's my, he's my guy, I follow him.
- 2:08:45He's, he's a good friend of mine, he's my mentor one of my
- 2:08:48mentors. I love everything about ionico,
- 2:08:50but when you see him sitting next to Mark Sanchez, and we're
- 2:08:53talking Jets football that to me is completely ridiculous.
- 2:08:57So, CBS needs to figure out what they're doing over there on that
- 2:09:00side. So, anyways, we have a new
- 2:09:03segment to this is the second week we're doing it.
- 2:09:06We call this in like Flynn, Was my lady.
- 2:09:09I've often heard that you give me a warm, welcome if ever we
- 2:09:11met again. Like flan.
- 2:09:18Flan. All right, my in like Flynn of
- 2:09:20the week is really the Netflix, America's team, The Gambler and
- 2:09:25the Cowboys. I don't know if anybody's
- 2:09:28checked it out, but it is Sensational.
- 2:09:30The documentary is, I think if the mop mistake in eight, eight
- 2:09:34is eight episode documentary. I'm I don't know the number,
- 2:09:38it's eight but the first it's so interesting because you got a
- 2:09:43chance to see how Jerry Jones bought the team the oil rig and
- 2:09:46and making and getting the 100's tens of millions of dollars.
- 2:09:58Owing so much money and then finally hits she strikes gold
- 2:10:03with with the oil takes the 100 million dollars and then and
- 2:10:07buys the the Cowboys. But also lost 300,000 dollars in
- 2:10:10a coin flip, which was so freaking ridiculous.
- 2:10:14And he went out there and says, hey, 300,000 dollars turn Into
- 2:10:18billions and billions of dollars.
- 2:10:20And then you look at the story behind it and really how he
- 2:10:23hired Jimmy Johnson how he decided to fire a Hall of Fame
- 2:10:27coach and one of the greatest coaches of all time in Landry
- 2:10:30and then and going back to going to his Mexican restaurant, not
- 2:10:34realizing that Mexican restaurant was Tom Landry's,
- 2:10:37favorite place to eat. I mean, it is crazy story and
- 2:10:40then the whole beef between him and Jimmy Johnson and figuring
- 2:10:44out who was involved, or who was behind the whole Herschel Walker
- 2:10:48trade, which changed the the factor of the Cowboys future, as
- 2:10:52they got five players for Herschel Walker and then they
- 2:10:55winded up getting rid of those players in the first year and
- 2:10:58getting old draft picks, which practically built this team from
- 2:11:01scratch. And then looking at Michael,
- 2:11:03Irvin the problems. That Michael Irvin had at the
- 2:11:05tail end of his career, which affected their franchising,
- 2:11:08affected, that that run, that they had the three Super Bowls
- 2:11:12that they were wanted in four years.
- 2:11:14It's an incredible story. And, and again, going back to
- 2:11:17what I said in the beginning. Of the show and a beginning of
- 2:11:20the segments of our show is telling you what?
- 2:11:23What a guy like Jerry Jones done for football, Jerry Jones is The
- 2:11:28Mastermind behind the sponsorships in advertisements.
- 2:11:32Yes. He had a problem with the NFL
- 2:11:34which you learn in that story in that.
- 2:11:37Unbelievable documentary. Is that the NFL was suing him
- 2:11:40and he pretty much told the NFL, you saw me?
- 2:11:42And I dropped the hammer on you you're gonna pay you're going to
- 2:11:45pay 500 million dollars. You're going to owe me for all
- 2:11:47the stuff that you're showing me for.
- 2:11:49I think that Jerry Jones is a mastermind.
- 2:11:51He was behind all the great things that the NFL has done
- 2:11:55over the last couple years. When Jerry Jones dies, when
- 2:11:58Jerry Jones walks away from football, whatever happens to
- 2:12:01Jerry Jones in the future, people are going to realize that
- 2:12:04Jerry Jones was everything to the NFL.
- 2:12:06He was the behind the scenes guy that stood for the sponsorships
- 2:12:10in the advertisements that would be brought in.
- 2:12:13And by the way, he used the Nike sponsorship to make that move to
- 2:12:17bring On Sanders and help them win their final Super Bowl.
- 2:12:21It is an incredible story and if you guys never got a chance to
- 2:12:24see it or I got a chance to watch it in two days, it's it's
- 2:12:28eight. Like I said, it's Eight
- 2:12:30Episodes. It's about the there's two
- 2:12:32episodes that I think we're over an hour but mainly, they're 40
- 2:12:35to 45 minutes to 50 minutes. Every single episode, it is
- 2:12:38Sensational everything about it. And and to me, it really changed
- 2:12:43my way of looking at the Dallas Cowboys and it should as a
- 2:12:47cowboy hater, you call it America's past time or America's
- 2:12:51team. It's very intriguing to see
- 2:12:53coward and all these different guys that were interviewed
- 2:12:55throughout the years and who played the Cowboys, and didn't
- 2:12:59understand how great how important those cowboys teams
- 2:13:02were in the 90s. And what those cowboys teams did
- 2:13:05to change football to now. So it is an interesting story,
- 2:13:10check it out. It's two thumbs up, baby, two
- 2:13:13thumbs up. I'll definitely I'll definitely
- 2:13:15watch it again. I it's gonna take Why?
- 2:13:18Because I'm watching all these different documentaries but it
- 2:13:20is a sensational, Sensational, documentary, America's team, The
- 2:13:25Gambler and his Cowboys. So it is a, it's interesting.
- 2:13:29It's very, very interesting. If you're not a Cowboys fan, you
- 2:13:32still should watch it. If you're a football fan
- 2:13:34football Enthusiast, that's something you definitely got to
- 2:13:38check out. All right, when we come back,
- 2:13:40ladies and gentlemen, we will be talking to co-founder of all 22,
- 2:13:44fantasy football, Ray Cotto. But first, our Sports minute
- 2:13:47with fish. Here with your Sportsman.
- 2:13:58Got a few stories before we cap the baseball scores the evening.

- 2:14:37Crawford, former Mavericks owner, and the big shark on
- 2:14:41Shark Tank, Mark, Cuban made some news earlier Wednesday, on
- 2:14:45semaphores. Mixed signal podcast, when he
- 2:14:47said, he would never invest in media, but he did invest in the
- 2:14:51biggest Insider in the NBA. ESPN's seania Cuban revealed
- 2:14:57that. Not only that Shams was my guy,
- 2:14:59but also that he learned how to Year's League trades after
- 2:15:03discussing the times, he tried to trade for Kobe, and Paul
- 2:15:06Pierce on different occasions on my end.
- 2:15:08It was Shams, Shams is my guy, he would know, I would tell him,
- 2:15:12I can't give you details, but I'll give you something else at
- 2:15:14some point in the future. But the flip side of it was he
- 2:15:17would help educate me about other things, happening around
- 2:15:20the league. So we had a great relationship.
- 2:15:22He knew when not to ask, and I knew when not to ask about other
- 2:15:25teams as you wouldn't tell me, but there was a certain things
- 2:15:28he would tell me as it related to players and what their
- 2:15:31interests were, he was a big help with us.
- 2:15:34Getting Kyrie Irving when we traded for Kyrie and for us,
- 2:15:37extending him when we extended, because he had a great
- 2:15:40relationship with Tyrese agent. Is stepmother, it appears Shams
- 2:15:45job, might be more intricate than it seems and that the

- 2:18:42And Now, ladies and gentlemen, he's been on a show quite a few
- 2:18:45times, very interesting guy. And yes, he is a Cowboys fan.
- 2:18:50We are now talking to cofounder of all 22 fantasy football.
- 2:18:53The one and only Ray Cotto Ray. What's up?
- 2:18:57Good evening, good to be back. How's everyone doing?
- 2:18:59Oh, we're good, man. Obviously, you're a fantasy guy.
- 2:19:03I know you're a cowboy guy. Did you check out the Netflix?
- 2:19:06All the American team over there of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 2:19:10Did you check out all the episodes?
- 2:19:13You know, I haven't yet. And you made a really
- 2:19:15impassioned pitch in the last segment about it because I'm
- 2:19:18sort of in the I Hate Everything.
- 2:19:21Joey Jones is doing right now. Don't care, sign, Micah type of
- 2:19:24mode and you made me consider sort of putting that aside and
- 2:19:28begrudgingly giving into exactly what Jerry wants, which is to
- 2:19:32watch his little Netflix special because he cares about that type
- 2:19:36of stuff more than I just agree with you and I think Jerry
- 2:19:39Jones. He does spend his money and
- 2:19:41weird different areas over the last couple of years.
- 2:19:44He gives Dak Prescott 60 million dollars, I think Dak Prescott's
- 2:19:48a good quarterback where you going at that position?
- 2:19:50CD land. You got George Pickens for
- 2:19:52practically nothing, you're gonna have to pay him.
- 2:19:54And I understand that cowboy fans want Micah Parsons back but
- 2:19:59Micah Parsons wants a big contract and I still think he's
- 2:20:03gonna get in. I still think he's gonna pay
- 2:20:05Michael Parsons so I know Cowboy fans need to hold up before the
- 2:20:09next couple of weeks. I think, one way or another
- 2:20:11they're going to settle just like to roll revisit The New
- 2:20:13York Jets did at the tail end of the preseason.
- 2:20:16So I do believe Micah Parsons is going to get the contract.
- 2:20:18But I'm gonna tell you guys this right now and all you Cowboy
- 2:20:21fans or even football and whatever football fans out
- 2:20:26there. If you don't like the Cowboys or
- 2:20:30you like the Cowboys or you're interested in documentaries,
- 2:20:32this documentary is one of the best documentaries I've ever
- 2:20:36seen Cowboys or not. It could be the Pittsburgh
- 2:20:39Steelers. It could be the New York Jets.
- 2:20:41It could be the New York Giants, this documentary, really shows
- 2:20:45you why the Cowboys have changed the NFL, they changed the NFL in
- 2:20:50the 90s, they gave you, what you wanted to see when it comes to
- 2:20:54dynasties and it kind of brought the presentation of why the New
- 2:20:58England Patriots and what the New England Patriots did after
- 2:21:01them even more interesting, more fantastic, the way, they
- 2:21:04dominated the way they did. So I, if you're interested in
- 2:21:08documentaries and and back ends of understanding, why Jerry
- 2:21:13Jerry Jones, who was who he was and how he made his millions and
- 2:21:17how he transformed the Cowboys into a franchise.
- 2:21:19That is the richest franchise in professional sports.
- 2:21:22Go look at it. The Yankees are the second.
- 2:21:25The Cowboys are number one. He bought that team for 150
- 2:21:29million dollars off an oil rig. That's what he did.
- 2:21:31He got lucky, he was borrowing 50s tens of millions of dollars
- 2:21:35at 50 million but tens of millions of dollars from Banks.
- 2:21:38He was in a situation where he was talking about killing
- 2:21:41himself and then he hit he hit it.
- 2:21:43Large with the oil rig made 100 million dollars and then
- 2:21:46borrowed five fifty million dollars from a bank and he had
- 2:21:50to pay 300,000 dollars because of a coin flip and and bought
- 2:21:54one of the biggest most impressive organizations and
- 2:21:58programs we have seen over the last.
- 2:22:00I would say, 50 years of professional sports.
- 2:22:03It's a very interesting story Dynamic and I, if you're again
- 2:22:08if you're not a Cowboy fan you definitely got to check it out.
- 2:22:10So I'm telling you you can hate the Cowboys.
- 2:22:13You want to hate Jerry Jones, Jerry Jones has changed
- 2:22:16football. He's made football what it is
- 2:22:18today and why you're seeing all this money being brought to the
- 2:22:22Forefront in the Super Bowl, think about it, commercials 5 10
- 2:22:26million dollars for 30 seconds, why do you think the commercials
- 2:22:30the NFL is getting that kind of money for commercials Jerry
- 2:22:34Jones, Jerry Jones is behind everything, for all the owners
- 2:22:37that we have spoken about that couldn't stand Jerry Jones and
- 2:22:41that were suing him for 500 million dollars.
- 2:22:43Jerry Jones is the reason why these owners are billionaires,
- 2:22:48it's Jerry Jones. He was the one that brought Nike
- 2:22:51to the floor front. He is the one that brought in
- 2:22:53Doritos and all those companies. So, I know people don't like
- 2:22:57him. I know people can't stand the
- 2:22:59Cowboys because they're America's team, but without
- 2:23:02Jerry Jones and 1989 buying the Cowboys, I don't think the NFL
- 2:23:06would be the NFL today without him, so that's my take on it.
- 2:23:10And what I got a chance to see that and Standard a little bit
- 2:23:13more in depth. I was surprised about why the
- 2:23:18Cowboys are so very important to the NFL now and and for the
- 2:23:21future and and and and and you see Dak Prescott while he's
- 2:23:24making 60 million dollars and you saw the highest paid
- 2:23:27quarterback right now in the NFL Jerry Jones.
- 2:23:29So anyways, let's get to Fantasy because fantasy is the, the big
- 2:23:33story right now. There's a lot of fantasy leagues
- 2:23:36being put together in the next couple of weeks, your thoughts
- 2:23:40on the running back position. Why do you think a specific
- 2:23:45running back should be picked first?
- 2:23:46Second, or third, I hate chasing stocks.
- 2:23:49This is what we're doing. But, I mean, it has to be safe
- 2:23:52until it's not. I know the whispering in the
- 2:23:55chatter about, he's not gonna have as big of a workload and so
- 2:23:58on and so forth. But it's sick wanted.
- 2:24:00It's not and that's just the way it is.
- 2:24:02I mean if Derek Henry were a couple years younger and had the
- 2:24:06same type of put up last year, I could hear the argument for
- 2:24:08Derek Henry, but until it's until it's not, it's it's say
- 2:24:12Kwan Barkley as as the clear. Number one, back number one
- 2:24:16overall pick. If you want to call it for
- 2:24:18traditional fantasy. He's he's the guy, he's still in
- 2:24:22electric playmaker, in the receiving game, as well as the
- 2:24:25running game. They still have that style of
- 2:24:27offense that opens things up and make it easier for running backs
- 2:24:30with that. You know, sort of Zone read
- 2:24:32Jalen hurts ability with his legs to open things up, right?
- 2:24:37You know, right up the gut of the defense along with those two
- 2:24:39top weapons on the outside still All the ingredients are still
- 2:24:43there. So if saquon is getting 21
- 2:24:47touches a game instead of 26, So be it that doesn't change the
- 2:24:52projection for me. So you got one who's number two,
- 2:24:53and number three. Oh gosh, it's it's still got and
- 2:24:58I I hesitate to say this, but it has to be Derrick Henry and the
- 2:25:03age scares me. Because when the cliff comes, it
- 2:25:06happens quick, it happens very quickly.
- 2:25:09And I mean, it happened with the best of talents Julio Jones.
- 2:25:12I know it's a different position we're talking about here, but I
- 2:25:17I can't a good conscience. If you don't take Derek Henry
- 2:25:20here and he does what he does. He just looks silly.
- 2:25:23When he's stiff, arming, the fenders into the turf still that
- 2:25:25their level, they still don't want to tackle.
- 2:25:27So at the end of the day, same thing with Citron, all the
- 2:25:30ingredients are still there for for Derrick Henry to have
- 2:25:34another monster season. So again I have him at 2 and
- 2:25:39then three. Ah, it's it's a toss-up between
- 2:25:43Gibbs and Bijan the two young guys.
- 2:25:45I think the excitement with with Atlanta and that offense maybe
- 2:25:48opening up a bit more Underpants for a full season sort of, gives
- 2:25:51the edge to Bijan Robinson there, but it's really close.
- 2:25:55I'm a huge fan of Gibbs. I put those two in that same
- 2:25:58tier so I like to think of it more as tears, instead of just a
- 2:26:02sort of numerical ranking there. And so to me I have Bichon and
- 2:26:05Gibbs in that same tier Elite, young running backs, just sort
- 2:26:09of hitting their stride and getting into their Prime on what
- 2:26:12we anticipate to be good off. Now Ray I am I am a big fan of
- 2:26:15fantasy guy especially when it comes to football.
- 2:26:17And the first two rounds, I always go running back.
- 2:26:20Always go running back because there's not enough running backs
- 2:26:22backs out there and you usually there are stupid people that'll
- 2:26:26go quarterback in the first round.
- 2:26:27Some people. Go after Lamar Jackson or Josh
- 2:26:29Allen like the idiots that they are even though they're great
- 2:26:32players and their in a PPR League or a quarterback League,
- 2:26:36you need those kind of guys but you don't really have to a
- 2:26:40quarterback usually Until the third or fourth round, if
- 2:26:42they're Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen but that's why I am
- 2:26:46asking. You where do you go with running
- 2:26:47backs in the first round? Because that's where I go.
- 2:26:49I give everybody my my secrets I go running back in the first
- 2:26:53round, running back in a second round every single time.
- 2:26:55And everybody wants to know, my madness, and my method, and why,
- 2:26:58I'm pretty good when it comes to Fantasy, it's always running
- 2:27:02back because there's not enough out there, maybe you'll get
- 2:27:04lucky, and you'll find one or a second tier running back,
- 2:27:07because the, the number one string goes down and this guy
- 2:27:09shows up, we've seen it with the Browns over the last couple of
- 2:27:12years. You'll find somebody in like,
- 2:27:14what do they call it a needle in the rough or whatever?
- 2:27:17Needle. In a haystack, where a guy comes
- 2:27:19out of nowhere? And he comes a pretty needle in
- 2:27:22the rough. You know what I need to do?
- 2:27:24I dealing with vertigo tonight, I've been sick all show and I am
- 2:27:29trailing through this and I gotta give myself a little bit
- 2:27:32of credit that I'm dealing with him.
- 2:27:34And I'm doing it so fucking well, excuse my language.
- 2:27:37But I, I need only a haystack. I always look at the running
- 2:27:40back. Says in important first round
- 2:27:42second round type of topic because I you give me sick on
- 2:27:46Barkley. Yeah I think sake Juan Barkley
- 2:27:48is so very important but am I gonna trust to take one Barkley?
- 2:27:52Is going to stay healthy this year?
- 2:27:53We've seen it back-to-back years, sake on Barkley.
- 2:27:56I be a little scared over there. A little scared going up to take
- 2:27:59one Barkley in the first round. I get it.
- 2:28:03But for a sequence and exception, he's a Penn State or
- 2:28:06so, you're not going to get me to move off to him, and she's
- 2:28:08just not you went to bed. It's, but I mean, he is an alien
- 2:28:12and what we saw last year is what we would have seen if he
- 2:28:14was on any sort of competent offense, or in any sort of
- 2:28:18competent system, for the first half decade of his career, when
- 2:28:22he wasn't just being wasted away in that Wasteland behind the
- 2:28:26Giants offensive line in that, just the whole roster was in
- 2:28:29shambles. So, again, I think I, I usually
- 2:28:34subscribe to those to those theories and thought processes
- 2:28:37processes, but at the same time, you have to recognize an
- 2:28:42exception. When there is an exception and
- 2:28:44there are very few exceptions in the game.
- 2:28:46And honestly, the exceptions are Derek Henry and say Kwan Barkley
- 2:28:50and I'd rather go You know, bet my house on those types of
- 2:28:55exceptions. Then the 58 wide receiver who
- 2:28:58runs a 46 exception who has a lot of production in college.
- 2:29:03I'll, you know, I'll lay my bed on saquon and Derek Henry and
- 2:29:06the guys are those trades who maybe are just doing it a bit
- 2:29:09longer than we're used to nowadays.
- 2:29:10Then those types of the other kids I like the kids from boys.
- 2:29:14He stayed. I don't know for six so he's
- 2:29:18he's not an except he's damn good.
- 2:29:21You just want to call them a restrooms?
- 2:29:24Yes, I'm just saying, I'm going out.
- 2:29:26If you're looking at, if you're trying to reach, I'm going after
- 2:29:29a rookie where you can get them in a third of fourth round and
- 2:29:32he could be a star this year, I love them, I love him coming out
- 2:29:36of the draft and, and being one of the more Elusive and two-way.
- 2:29:41Kind of backs that we've seen come out of draft.
- 2:29:43He reminds me a Bijan Robinson. I think a better version of
- 2:29:46Bichon Robinson. That's what I think.
- 2:29:48Oh, yeah. He had the two.
- 2:29:49He had that, I think the highest athletic rate him in beach on
- 2:29:51Sunday, dream, Peterson, it's crazy.
- 2:29:53So right, I want to shift from the running back position to the
- 2:29:55tight end, Brock Bowers and Trey McBride.
- 2:29:57The effects of the, the last year had for the I was big train
- 2:29:59McBride, like I got my earlier in 23, like before he like,
- 2:30:03Earth Scott heard, it really helped me.
- 2:30:04I dropped him a lot last year too and empowers insane year.
- 2:30:07Getting second round greats, like probably the first time
- 2:30:09we've seen that since Gronk and Jimmy Graham, like, do you buy
- 2:30:11into that was a strategy? You would go for.
- 2:30:15I like to get typically like the third best tight end or the
- 2:30:22fourth best tight end. I don't like to be the first guy
- 2:30:24to take a tight end. If we're talking, just a
- 2:30:27traditional redraft single season type of platform because
- 2:30:30you can typically get similar production, A half round a full
- 2:30:35round later than whoever Chase is chases the top stock there,
- 2:30:39but overall, the tight end position is deeper than it's
- 2:30:43been in recent years. It used to, it's still does
- 2:30:46typically take tight ends until they're age 26 Season age 27
- 2:30:51season, before they really hit their stride.
- 2:30:53You think of guys like David and Joker, for example who people
- 2:30:56had written off. But in reality he answered the
- 2:30:58NFL at age, 20. And by the, you know, it just it
- 2:31:01felt like he was in the league for a long time.
- 2:31:02But really, he hit his prime, when normal players at their
- 2:31:05primate age, 25 and became a big time Factor.
- 2:31:08So I don't like to be the first I know.
- 2:31:12I love Brock Bowers as much as the next guy, but if I could
- 2:31:15take George Kittle around later and that offense and San
- 2:31:19Francisco where I think it's going to be a more concentrated
- 2:31:22show with kiddle. And Ricky Pearsall at wide
- 2:31:25receiver who people aren't talking about enough there.
- 2:31:29I'll happily take the value. Something to talk about San
- 2:31:32Francisco is going to fall flat on their face.
- 2:31:34They're not being a team but those are two really productive.
- 2:31:38Players are gonna be here where I get a chance to go out there
- 2:31:42in front of everybody, including Owen the tick and say I Told
- 2:31:47You. So I have been telling people
- 2:31:49over and over and over and over again, that San Francisco is
- 2:31:52going to fall flat on their face.
- 2:31:53This is the year ladies and gentlemen, no more Deebo Samuel
- 2:31:57he's over there and washing Dan, they're not getting their star
- 2:32:00wide receiver until the 8th week or seventh week of the NFL
- 2:32:05season and you're gonna bet on George.
- 2:32:07Kittle and Ricky pure Soul. Give me a break.
- 2:32:09You're still gonna get you points are fantasy and I think
- 2:32:18that's what we're talking about. That's right.
- 2:32:20They were you, when was the last time you seen San Francisco and
- 2:32:27not make the playoffs back to back here?
- 2:32:29Swelt, ladies and gentlemen, this will be one of very first
- 2:32:33time since the 90s the late 90s, when the team started falling
- 2:32:38flat on their face when they were really bad, when no more,
- 2:32:41Jerry Rice know, Steve Young know, Joe Montana and they were
- 2:32:44trying to find their way out. And they got Terrell Owens owned
- 2:32:47by the way they traded him too. So yeah, I that's when the 49ers
- 2:32:51just really were not a very good franchise so I know what you're
- 2:32:55saying job. I understand what you're saying.
- 2:32:56They're gonna get your points. I mean there is Christian
- 2:33:00McCaffrey over there too you forgot about him he is a pretty
- 2:33:03explosive running back as well. He'll definitely be in the top
- 2:33:06four top five guys when it comes to list of guys that you're
- 2:33:10going to want to draft. But nevertheless if you're going
- 2:33:12to bet that he is going to be that old world type of running
- 2:33:15back with this offensive line that really stands to two guys,
- 2:33:20their guard and their tackle is already hurts.
- 2:33:23Yeah, I mean this team is an absolute joke and they brought
- 2:33:27back Bambi. There's a 49ers interim, head
- 2:33:30coach. Really, really good.
- 2:33:37I I'm losing my mind tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, I have to
- 2:33:40laugh because our guy fish over here who loves Kyle Shanahan.
- 2:33:45And then we have a guy named Owen that's been on this show
- 2:33:49quite a few times, that loves the San Francisco 49ers and was
- 2:33:53complaining and bitching and moaning about Brock Purdy
- 2:33:56getting. His contract are now Singing in
- 2:33:59the Rain because there's not gonna be much rain.
- 2:34:01There's just gonna be a lot of snow, and they're gonna have to
- 2:34:03be dug out because Kyle, Shannon's, gonna be looking for
- 2:34:06a new job and it might be somewhere else at the end of the
- 2:34:10season. Come on.
- 2:34:11Kyle Shanahan, right? You could tell him he got
- 2:34:14influence all over the league with the offense, he hasn't won
- 2:34:18nothing. He stinks.
- 2:34:19He's horny unemployed for about 10 minutes, that's fine.
- 2:34:22Yeah, let him go somewhere else and lose somewhere else.
- 2:34:26Let him go to Atlanta where he was the offensive coin and cost
- 2:34:29them a Super Bowl. Great job in Atlanta.
- 2:34:31Great job. Good franchisee.
- 2:34:34Who trades three first round picks for Trey?
- 2:34:36Lance would normally be in the abyss for a decade and he just
- 2:34:41kept that ship afloat as best as he possibly could.
- 2:34:44And I found one of those sales were he did find Brock pretty in
- 2:34:49seventh round. He built brought priority up
- 2:34:51after finding him in the same watch with him away from Brock
- 2:34:54Purdy and Brock Purdy may end up being, you know, insert the
- 2:34:58counter. I just I just gave you the
- 2:35:00reason why Kyle Shanahan should be looking for a new job.
- 2:35:03What, what is people think? I'm like blind or I don't see
- 2:35:07what I'm seeing. I've been telling you guys this
- 2:35:09for a while. The guys not good.
- 2:35:11Yeah. He's taking a team to a Super
- 2:35:14Bowl. They had Talent there before he
- 2:35:16was even there. And now, all of a sudden, yo,
- 2:35:19Kyle Shannon, she's great offense of Mine.
- 2:35:21He's left a one. Anything, the guy's never won.
- 2:35:23Even as an assistant coach even as an offensive coordinator.
- 2:35:28He's never won. So, why is Buddy.
- 2:35:30But he's not Mike Shanahan. He's not his dad, Mike shouldn't
- 2:35:34do Super Bowls. Did this guy won?
- 2:35:36Nothing. Oh, this guy's The Mastermind,
- 2:35:38Sean McVay, look at O'Connell, look at McBride.
- 2:35:41Other than that, the guy stinks. The guys.
- 2:35:45Never gonna win anything. He's a loser.
- 2:35:48Here it is. Owen Lou, who's there?
- 2:35:52That's, I'm sorry. John, I just had to do that.
- 2:35:54I had to add that to the the storytelling here.
- 2:35:57Yeah, no, you're good. I mean, if we were talking about
- 2:36:00a whole team factor, I would, I would agree with you, but
- 2:36:03they're still gonna get you some points on the old fantasy route.
- 2:36:06So I, I just want to get here just so I can hear Ariel, this
- 2:36:13lose it. I just want to ask your thoughts
- 2:36:15on Arrow's favorite player. And I think his last name's
- 2:36:20Hunter. The the Unicorn, the Gremlins,
- 2:36:28the column is something else the gremlin, the gremlin, the Travis
- 2:36:32the gremlin Hunter, right? If you have any way to hack, the
- 2:36:35arrows, all 22, right there it is.
- 2:36:39Ladies and gentle. No, AI should be allowed to do.
- 2:36:41That is definitely one ugly. SLP controls on our, yes, I ugly
- 2:36:47man. He is really, really ugly.
- 2:36:49And by the way, I just want to give a shout out to Deion
- 2:36:51Sanders. He was great in that
- 2:36:53documentary, too. I gotta give him some credit.
- 2:36:54I didn't like Deion Sanders, I take back a lot of things about
- 2:36:58Deion Sanders, I give him a little bit more credit as a
- 2:37:01player because of his personality as a player.
- 2:37:04And I remember him as a player but I didn't realize how how
- 2:37:07much Pizzazz he had when he played on a football field and I
- 2:37:11got a chance to get to know him a little bit better, watching
- 2:37:13the documentary, so I'll take back some of the things I said
- 2:37:16about him. Still his son stinks and Travis
- 2:37:18Hunter is one of the most overrated players in NFL history
- 2:37:22to come out of the draft. So eat it.
- 2:37:23Let's hear it. Ray What is like Jabba said,
- 2:37:26where do you see Travis hunter? Or may I say the gremlin to be
- 2:37:32this year? I look forward to 25 years from
- 2:37:35now. When the documentary about
- 2:37:37Travis Hunter comes out, you also saying something similar
- 2:37:39about know gaining some more respect.
- 2:37:41For now as a player. As a two-way player, All Pro on
- 2:37:44both sides of the ball because he is that type of talent I do.
- 2:37:49Think, are you in drugs? At least, at least early on.
- 2:37:52What do you probably gonna spend more of a focus on the?
- 2:37:54I mean, are you are you dealing with vertical?
- 2:37:57Like, I am because I mean, there you might be seeing two or
- 2:38:00three. I mean, he does play two
- 2:38:03positions on the fields that way, that's fine.
- 2:38:06Everything he could do for a team.
- 2:38:07Well, the team in the organizations, making a big
- 2:38:10mistake, you should not be putting as a wide receiver,
- 2:38:12should be putting him as a corner and because they're doing
- 2:38:14that, it's going to throw him off, its gonna put him in a
- 2:38:17position to fail, as far as I'm concerned.
- 2:38:19The wide receiver to watch on that team.
- 2:38:21His name ends with a t. And that is Thomas, Bryan,
- 2:38:25Thomas, who I believe is the best young Wide Receiver right
- 2:38:31now. In the NFL, he is going to
- 2:38:32explode. Off the paper this year lady is
- 2:38:35in gentlemen, if you're a buyer, don't be a seller on this guy.
- 2:38:39And I want to know your opinion right now.
- 2:38:41I think he's just in Jefferson esque.
- 2:38:43He might even be better than Justin Jefferson.
- 2:38:46I think this guy is in the next two years is going to be known
- 2:38:49as the number one wide receiver in the NFL Brian Thomas, where
- 2:38:54do you draft them? Is he a first round pick?
- 2:38:56And where would you draft them? Late first High second.
- 2:39:00I think he's a little bit. He's a different type of
- 2:39:02receiver. He's a bit more of honestly sort
- 2:39:05of like the Terrell Owens mode as far as you know sort of the
- 2:39:09big plays he provides but he's not necessarily the and I know
- 2:39:13in his prime Tio was this guy but Thomas isn't quite there yet
- 2:39:17although he has the build in sort of physical makeup to
- 2:39:19eventually get there. But he's not the guy you Pepper
- 2:39:23with targets quick over the middle type.
- 2:39:26That's not really him right now. He's still a take off the top
- 2:39:28off the defense type of guy makes him big plays yards after
- 2:39:32the catch, but not necessarily, you know, eight catch on 10,
- 2:39:36Target type of guy that sort of wears out the defense.
- 2:39:38So in that sense, some of the guys like adjusting Jefferson a
- 2:39:43jamarr chase. Some of the other names at the
- 2:39:45top of that list. We'll see what the Lions offense
- 2:39:48looks like with amen. Brown now that they lost their
- 2:39:51offensive coordinator, Ben Johnson over to the bears but
- 2:39:54that's another name where You could just, you can count.
- 2:39:58On him, having a ton of targets during the game and being able
- 2:40:01to sort of, always keep you in it, if he's on your right on
- 2:40:05your team, right? So Brian Thomas Jr.
- 2:40:07Maybe wide receiver five or six right now but in any given we
- 2:40:12can finish as wide receiver one because he catch is 260 plus
- 2:40:15yard touchdowns, that's the type of player he is and then I think
- 2:40:18over time he becomes a cop he's almost there already but a top
- 2:40:23three player which type of specialist you're the co-founder
- 2:40:26of all 22. We love you, okay.
- 2:40:28But are you blind? I what's going on here?
- 2:40:30What's going on that? He's had enough time, he's had
- 2:40:40enough time over there in San Francisco.
- 2:40:41I don't want to see Kyle Shanahan anymore.
- 2:40:43Are you lost? I got vertigo right now.
- 2:40:45I'm throwing up by throwing up twice on this show.
- 2:40:48Okay twice. And I think you're absolutely
- 2:40:51blind about this guy. Mac Jones just throwing this
- 2:40:54guy. The ball is here.
- 2:40:55He had over 1000 1200 yards. And you're gonna tell me.
- 2:40:59Well, he needs time to develop. What more does he need to
- 2:41:02develop it. What's going on?
- 2:41:05We need time to be to raise his floor in a giving we wide
- 2:41:10receiver. What Because his ceiling is
- 2:41:16already possible wide receiver one, you just got to reduce the
- 2:41:19Delta between the floor and the Delta, I'm gonna give you a
- 2:41:23smack on. Okay, what the hell you
- 2:41:25mentioned that Jones? I think forgetting about Mac
- 2:41:28Jones and Trevor Lawrence. I think the real key here is
- 2:41:30Liam Cohen and his offense because we saw what he did with
- 2:41:32the wide receivers and with with Mike with Mike Evans and Chris
- 2:41:36Godwin. So I know I know you're I know
- 2:41:38you want to just microwave this thing to success but if it does,
- 2:41:41it's going to be Liam Cohen and the offense that he brings over
- 2:41:44there in Jackson. I think, I think the biggest
- 2:41:47beneficiaries, Trevor Lawrence, Trevor?
- 2:41:48Lawrence is my sleep bracket. A lot of people now, you're
- 2:41:53losing it now. I love this.
- 2:41:56WOW, over here. Are you are you really now
- 2:41:59talking about Trevor Lawrence? The overrated quarterback that
- 2:42:03was the number one pick of the draft.
- 2:42:05I don't know. He's the guy stinks, he's gonna
- 2:42:09drop Trevor law. He's a happy.
- 2:42:11That's what he is. The biggest week of smoking weed
- 2:42:14and enjoy himself on the sidelines.
- 2:42:16The guy is so overrated. Liam Cohen is gonna make magic
- 2:42:20happen. Is this the same Leon Cohen that
- 2:42:23didn't want, the job. Is this the same?
- 2:42:25Liam go in that actually went home to Tampa and said it, he
- 2:42:28doesn't want the job. And then all of a sudden, out of
- 2:42:30nowhere, they fired the GM and they fire him practically every
- 2:42:33single executive over there to give him the reins.
- 2:42:35Liam is not gonna last more than two years over there.
- 2:42:38No, no coach Everlast there. More than Peter said there.
- 2:42:42The guy want a Super Bowl with the Eagle's?
- 2:42:45Yes, he won the Super Bowl with the Eagles, and it couldn't work
- 2:42:48over there. So, stop this.
- 2:42:49You're gonna actually sell me Trevor, Lawrence, and then
- 2:42:52you're going to tell me that the gremlin is going to be a great
- 2:42:55player and 25 years, they're gonna make a documentary of the
- 2:42:58City, idiot. The guys at 80, he's a jacket.
- 2:43:00Yes, Yeah, the kremlin's three. It's coming out next year.
- 2:43:07Yeah. Are you kidding me?
- 2:43:09He isn't horrible. Horrible player and I promise
- 2:43:12you mark my words. Ladies and gentlemen.
- 2:43:14I'm not gonna take this back in six years.
- 2:43:15The guy is gonna be one of the worst at his position.
- 2:43:18It doesn't matter if he's a wide receiver, it doesn't matter if
- 2:43:21he's a corner, what a joke. And I'm gonna tell you this
- 2:43:24right now, I saw it. I'm gonna pull it up and I'm
- 2:43:26gonna send it to you either. There was a, there was a, there
- 2:43:29was a, I think a, take a 10 minute.
- 2:43:31Take that. I saw it today and most
- 2:43:33overrated draft picks of all time, guess who they had in the
- 2:43:37top five? Yes, the gremlin.
- 2:43:38And I'm gonna tell you this right now, I'm gonna love it.
- 2:43:41I'm gonna love it when I told you or I tell you guys, I Told
- 2:43:45You. So he stinks.
- 2:43:46That's all I'm gonna say right for contacts.
- 2:43:48He also has a bet with Quinton coples where Quinton coples was
- 2:43:52saying I think he's gonna get three interceptions or something
- 2:43:54at all those things. He's gonna get Eddie know, he's
- 2:43:56not gonna have one this year, he's not gonna have one this
- 2:43:59year, probably gonna have one. If he plays wanna bet on
- 2:44:01defense. You wanna bet how much you want
- 2:44:03to bet that? Come on, come on.
- 2:44:06You're a betting man. What's the printing couples?
- 2:44:09Quinn compost. Wouldn't even dare it a bit me
- 2:44:11on this one. Now, I'm telling you that right
- 2:44:14now, especially if he's going to be a wide receiver. 90% of the
- 2:44:16time. Oh, good luck.
- 2:44:18Well, he didn't say, he prefers to play Corner over.
- 2:44:20It's absolutely. And I I think they're making a
- 2:44:23big mistake Denise. Say, 60 736 40, wasn't it?
- 2:44:26Yeah. 730 730 and he said, 70 30 as a corner.
- 2:44:30I think they're they're choosing the wrong position for him to
- 2:44:34play as the wide receiver more than the corner.
- 2:44:37But I'm gonna tell you right now, he's not gonna have one
- 2:44:39interception this year, and I think he's one of the most
- 2:44:41overrated highly touted players. I've ever heard come out of the
- 2:44:45draft in. I would say the last 20 years he
- 2:44:49is not good and I think you guys need to stop it.
- 2:44:51He's not the on Sanders. He's not in quick close to the
- 2:44:54talent Deion Sanders. Well as in Dion coming out and
- 2:44:56saying well he's he's better than I was Deon.
- 2:44:59Stop selling me. Something.
- 2:45:00You're you're selling me dry ice.
- 2:45:02That's what you're selling me. I'd rather chew on dry ice then
- 2:45:05actually believe that the Gremlins going to be a good
- 2:45:07player in the NFL. That's it.
- 2:45:09That's it. No more talking about Travis on
- 2:45:11her. Where does he like actually fit
- 2:45:14in so he's listed as a receiver. He's listed as a receiver.
- 2:45:19I think he's gonna end up. We talked and I agree.
- 2:45:22I think he's primarily a higher as a corner.
- 2:45:25And that type of corner is more rare to find with his sort of
- 2:45:27ability and ball skills. His best position to me is
- 2:45:30coroner, but he's still a Top Flite wide, receiver Prospect.
- 2:45:34If he focuses on it, I think what was happening now is, he's
- 2:45:37probably gonna be more 6535, wide receiver to start.
- 2:45:40He's gonna get comfortable with the system and the offense and
- 2:45:43then sort of integrates slowly into the defense as time goes
- 2:45:47on. That seems to be the plan.
- 2:45:49I probably would have primarily had him on defense first and
- 2:45:52work him into the offense to start.
- 2:45:54But Liam Cohen is a mastermind, he clearly had great negotiation
- 2:45:58tactics that arrows, just not giving him my respect for how
- 2:46:01many times he Jackson, how many times he has some Savvy to him
- 2:46:05and some forethought. And so I'm gonna I'll Trust Liam
- 2:46:07Cohen until he gives me a reason not to on this but it seems more
- 2:46:12like 6535 offense to start as he faces in more with the defense.
- 2:46:16As he shows, he can handle the load on both sides of the ball
- 2:46:19and they kind of take it from there.
- 2:46:21I'm curious to see how I would. It's gonna shake out because to
- 2:46:24me, no matter how good you are to me, really is a really tall
- 2:46:27task to expect someone to play significant role on both sides
- 2:46:32of the ball in today's NFL. It's just that's so taxing on
- 2:46:36the body. The seasons already long enough
- 2:46:38as it is. It's a different ballgame than
- 2:46:41doing that. What?
- 2:46:41So why wouldn't he get you double points?
- 2:46:43Then if he gets a pick six on the other side and then get you
- 2:46:46points for the defense. If you have their defense,
- 2:46:48sounds sounds good to me. Well in all 22 we have depth
- 2:46:52charts. So you know if you have Travis
- 2:46:54Hunter on your team and you play are you gonna be able to play
- 2:46:56him at both of you? Draft them is that I actually
- 2:46:59dress. So right now he's listed Is just
- 2:47:00a wide receiver. Done what they've discussed so
- 2:47:03far as the plans, but you know, that could always be updated as
- 2:47:06as he does play more defense. And then, you know, we'll have
- 2:47:09something for that on the platform did draft him and some
- 2:47:12of my League's and I'm anticipating in eventually sort
- 2:47:15of two for one. There were right, right?
- 2:47:17You could draft him in our all 22 league and give a whole bunch
- 2:47:20of people here. I know he won't slide me for
- 2:47:23him. He's the word that I caught up
- 2:47:25on anything at all the things that he just said, shake and
- 2:47:28load that's about it and he has this Love Fest for Cohen.
- 2:47:32So I don't know what he's thinking in his head right now,
- 2:47:34but there there might be something coming.
- 2:47:36I, where is he? Oh, that's right.
- 2:47:39He's injected right. Maybe we should ship over there,
- 2:47:41right? Right about what the he is.
- 2:47:43A genius for being the one that I only forced the Jaguars to
- 2:47:46fire. Trent bulky, who had the best
- 2:47:47friend of mediocrity sits. The Jason Garrett.
- 2:47:49I never said, bulky was good. Okay.
- 2:47:51I never said that bulky was good and I think Jackson is one of
- 2:47:55the worst organizations in the NFL and the NFL at what with one
- 2:47:59of the more popular owners out of All the NFL owners because he
- 2:48:03speaks very highly his sons, you know, owns a wrestling
- 2:48:07organization. I mean, he's only what you want
- 2:48:10as an owner. He loves to dip his hands in
- 2:48:11everything. That's what you like from an
- 2:48:13owner but when you you have a guy that didn't want the job and
- 2:48:16then all of a sudden jumps and takes the job at the last minute
- 2:48:18and then they move up and give up a significant amount to get
- 2:48:21the gremlin and expect this guy to be a star wide receiver on
- 2:48:26the other side of Brian Thomas where you have a prolific Talent
- 2:48:30of that magnitude, good luck. It is an absolute joke.
- 2:48:33And by the way, travel Lawrence sucks.
- 2:48:35I gotta add that one too. So there you go.
- 2:48:37I gotta say, old, take a lot to go out on a limb against the
- 2:48:41Jaguars. Well, you know, it's him and
- 2:48:46anticipate better days ahead. No, I, you know, with, with all
- 2:48:50the things I'm dealing with tonight, including vertigo.
- 2:48:52I am not going to see two when I see that idiot on the football
- 2:48:56field. By the way, we are talking to
- 2:48:58co-founder of all 22 fantasy football.
- 2:49:00Recado Ray, um, obviously the New York Jets have an
- 2:49:05interesting season. I think Aaron Glenn is a good
- 2:49:08coach. I like what he's saying.
- 2:49:09I like the fact that he's going out there and he's holding his
- 2:49:12players accountable. Justin Fields has a chance to
- 2:49:15prove himself this year. I know, I think it was you that
- 2:49:18really like Justin Fields when he came out of the draft, he
- 2:49:21never really got a chance. Oh, it wasn't.
- 2:49:23Then it was your partner. It was your partner.
- 2:49:25It was made in Chris. Yeah, it was Chris, but probably
- 2:49:27the guy, one of one of you guys really like Justin Fields.
- 2:49:29I did ever fleece, was not the guy to coach him up.
- 2:49:33I didn't like the fact, what they did over there in
- 2:49:35Pittsburgh, Mike Tomlin is definitely not a coach for when
- 2:49:38it comes to a quarterback and now he's with the Jets, Aaron,
- 2:49:41Glenn. One of the reasons why he took
- 2:49:43the job is he told the Jets. Go get Justin Fields, your
- 2:49:47thoughts to Justin Fields this year if he gets the chance to
- 2:49:49flourish, with Garrett Wilson, it may be alive.
- 2:49:52I mean, there's stories coming out that they're gonna, they're
- 2:49:54gonna go after a while, they, before the season starts, maybe
- 2:49:57they get a lot in Garrett. Well, listen to court two wide
- 2:50:00receivers he played with with Ohio State, the question with
- 2:50:03Justin Fields is really how far do you want to go?
- 2:50:06Because if you're talking, if you're trying to be a Super Bowl
- 2:50:10Contender with Justin Fields as your quarterback, it's just not
- 2:50:13going to happen now, can you build enough of an offense
- 2:50:17around him or enough of a team around him?
- 2:50:20And using his legs, you can manufacture enough offense to
- 2:50:23win, 9, or 10 games in the regular season, make the
- 2:50:26wildcard round. Maybe win a playoff game.
- 2:50:28Sure, I think that's the high watermark for Justin Fields
- 2:50:32because to me, they're simply inherent flaws, inherent fatal,
- 2:50:36flaws and his game. When it comes to processing
- 2:50:39speed within the pocket that your legs Can't Always Get You
- 2:50:43Out of. And that's a part of his game
- 2:50:45that never developed. It didn't develop in college, it
- 2:50:48never had to develop in college because of what he was
- 2:50:51surrounded by. You could sit back in the pocket
- 2:50:54for four plus seconds, and wait for your primary to come open,
- 2:50:57not even worried about processing.
- 2:50:59The entire field at that point and still Put up, 40, something
- 2:51:03points a game. And so, that part of his game is
- 2:51:05never developed. And a lot of that really is
- 2:51:07innate and Fields is just not that innate processor.
- 2:51:10He holds on to the ball a long time and then we'll try to make
- 2:51:14things happen with his legs and that can't always bail you out
- 2:51:17of trouble. So can the Jets be a and above
- 2:51:21500 team? A wild card type of contender
- 2:51:23given that the offensive line is better.
- 2:51:25Defense. You know, is going to be solid.
- 2:51:28They had, he does have a rapport with Garrett Wilson, maybe Mason
- 2:51:31Taylor as a young tight end, kind of gives him a new
- 2:51:33dimension they haven't had before Braylon Allen's getting a
- 2:51:35ton of Buzz will see about that. Sure.
- 2:51:37But as long as we're realistic about the expectations and we're
- 2:51:42not sitting here bad mouthing, right?
- 2:51:44I want to hear you. I don't want to hear you.
- 2:51:48I'm getting angry with you tonight.
- 2:51:52Are really helped you. I you're helping me.
- 2:51:55You're telling me that it can't work with Justin Fields, but it
- 2:51:58worked with Jalen hurts over there in Philadelphia.
- 2:52:00Are you going to tell me that? They're not the same player,
- 2:52:02they're practically the same freaking player.
- 2:52:04So to sit here and say, well it's not gonna work, what is
- 2:52:08Philadelphia built on, great defense, what is Philadelphia on
- 2:52:11great running back. That's what the Jets have and
- 2:52:13what is Philadelphia known for? Well, not for great coaching.
- 2:52:17That's for damn, sure. And and the Jets actually have a
- 2:52:19decent coach. They have practically a
- 2:52:22quarterback that can do the same thing that Jalen hurts could do
- 2:52:24and hurts. I'm not saying that Justin
- 2:52:27Fields is Jalen hurts but they're very similar in their
- 2:52:30games to sit here and say, they can't win with him, or they
- 2:52:33can't go Super Bowl. I'm not saying that they will,
- 2:52:35and I don't think they're going to the Super Bowl this year, but
- 2:52:38to come out here as a Cowboy fan and tell me that the gremlin is
- 2:52:42going to have a documentary in 25 years and we're gonna,
- 2:52:45they're gonna build, you know, a statue of him over there
- 2:52:48Jacksonville. I don't know.
- 2:52:49Do you eat paint chips or something?
- 2:52:51I don't know. What's going on with you
- 2:52:53tonight? There's, I'm a little lost here.
- 2:52:55I, I love you, man. I love what you do.
- 2:52:57I love everything that you do on social media.
- 2:53:00I follow you. I laugh at some of the things
- 2:53:02you post and I love what you're doing right now for all 22.
- 2:53:06But if you're gonna come out here tonight and tell me that
- 2:53:09I'm going to appreciate what the gremlin is 25 years, you're
- 2:53:13wrong. And when you're going to come
- 2:53:15out here and tell me, hey, you know what Trevor Lawrence is is
- 2:53:18my guy, he's gonna be a guy that you're gonna definitely go draft
- 2:53:21and you're fantasy draft now, man.
- 2:53:23You're smoking some ganja, you're, you're, you're drinking,
- 2:53:27you're sniffing some lines, whatever the hell you are lost
- 2:53:33my friend, I love you, had your heart broken.
- 2:53:36Where's the last time? You had your heart broken?
- 2:53:37Oh my God. I don't know.
- 2:53:39You're breaking my heart right now, so I guess within the last
- 2:53:43five minutes but you from that heartbreak feeling and you're
- 2:53:47just I can't, it looks like I just have to let you go.
- 2:53:49You just gonna have to, you know what was what do we on the
- 2:53:53Titanic or something? And let me go get something
- 2:53:57about again. And you're doing it.
- 2:53:59First of all, buddy I I could give a crap about what anybody
- 2:54:06thinks about the New York Jets. I already know.
- 2:54:08The Jets are gonna fall flat on their face, okay.
- 2:54:10They always do. But as far as I'm concerned, so
- 2:54:14are your Cowboys, okay. So of course, we're gonna sit
- 2:54:17here and we're gonna talk about who look at the Jets.
- 2:54:19I I think Dak Prescott's a good quarterback.
- 2:54:22I think the organization has done well in, you know, not well
- 2:54:27unwell, giving him weapons. Now, finally made a good move to
- 2:54:30bring in George Pickens, but they're not going to be able to
- 2:54:32pay him and now they're gonna have to overpay Michael Parsons
- 2:54:35to keep him. So, your organization is, is
- 2:54:38falling flat on their face or they sealed Jake Ferguson.
- 2:54:40But again, what who they gonna go, who they gonna blame it on?
- 2:54:44Oh, Jerry Jones, the guy that his giving your organization
- 2:54:48opportunity, after opportunity to make money, and put that
- 2:54:52organization right on the platform to be America's team.
- 2:54:55And now all of a sudden, you hate him, you don't want to
- 2:54:58watch his documentary. Shame on you, buddy.
- 2:55:00Shame on you. All right, I never thought I
- 2:55:02would see. Listen, I stick up for Dak
- 2:55:04Prescott all the time. Am a DAC, Prescott supporter.
- 2:55:08I there are so many Cowboy fans that don't understand how good
- 2:55:12they have it and when he is gone, he's way better than Tony
- 2:55:15Romo. If you look at what Troy Aikman
- 2:55:18has done. And yes, he's not Troy Aikman
- 2:55:20because Troy Aikman had Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin and a
- 2:55:23great offensive line but if you consider to look at both, those
- 2:55:27guys numbers, they're very similar.
- 2:55:29And but a guy that can actually move outside of the pocket and
- 2:55:33make throws on the run, something a Troy, couldn't do, I
- 2:55:36I just think that cowboy fans don't realize how good they have
- 2:55:39it as well as giant fans, didn't realize how good they had of it
- 2:55:42until Eli Manning was gone and gone for the count and going
- 2:55:47almost on that stupid ass PN take.
- 2:55:50So I just, I'm just speaking. The truth here, you guys have an
- 2:55:55opportunity to build and and win a championship with Dak
- 2:55:58Prescott. You'll never do that until you
- 2:55:59give them the weapons that he needs.
- 2:56:01The problem with that, is that That we give out too many bad
- 2:56:05contracts, like Ezekiel Elliott, which everyone saw was going to
- 2:56:07be a train wreck from a mile away.
- 2:56:09That prevent us from making the type of deals in free agency.
- 2:56:12That would build a team good enough to actually contend truly
- 2:56:17for a Super Bowl. And we rely on the select few
- 2:56:19that we do have guys like that. Press got guys like Mega
- 2:56:23Parsons, while he was on his rookie contract, guys, like, CD
- 2:56:25lamb to make up for those holes Elsewhere on the roster, and
- 2:56:29come playoff time, you can't do that for four or five weeks
- 2:56:32straight, especially when you don't have a coaching advantage.
- 2:56:35And you are sort of dealing with some.
- 2:56:38I mean, Mike McCarthy is a, is a coach from the odds, his type of
- 2:56:42system just doesn't work anymore.
- 2:56:43No one else would have hired that that guy to run their
- 2:56:47offense to run their team. But of course, Jerry Jones did,
- 2:56:49because that's what Jerry does he lives in the past, just like,
- 2:56:52with this Netflix special, but I know you're gonna jump in
- 2:56:56because you are now. Jerry Jones is Biggest Fan which
- 2:56:58is which is just lovely to see you would not work anywhere.
- 2:57:03When it comes to offenses. If you look at the Cowboys in
- 2:57:07their record and they're offense over the last couple of years,
- 2:57:09it's been one of the best in football.
- 2:57:11What are you talking about? If you watch closely for
- 2:57:15Success, the success of the offense was either through two
- 2:57:18minute drills or no huddle when that was the one making the
- 2:57:21calls at the line and not Mike McCarthy's, play calls, go back
- 2:57:25and watch. I promise, you'll notice the
- 2:57:27same and that picture with paternal.
- 2:57:29I I was actually hiding behind you too.
- 2:57:32I know fish used that magical cartoon in the background and
- 2:57:37take me out of it. If you really look deeply, I'm
- 2:57:40behind paternal and I'm like waving.
- 2:57:42So I was actually in that picture.
- 2:57:44I was taking out of that picture.
- 2:57:45But anyways, I am lost here tonight.
- 2:57:47I want to tell you that I have lost, my will as a Jet fan.
- 2:57:52I lost my will to even, listen to this.
- 2:57:55All 22 fantasy go Guru over here.
- 2:57:57But I'm gonna give you a little bit of credit here.
- 2:58:00When I look at what you have done for all 22 and what you're
- 2:58:05you and your partner and your organization has done its given
- 2:58:07fans, a hope that. Now when you look at football,
- 2:58:11you're not just looking at the offensive side you're looking
- 2:58:14and also at the defensive side and building depth throughout
- 2:58:18the season to play all 22, that I think is great.
- 2:58:21The only problem here is when we played all 22, you had to draft
- 2:58:255500 rounds of something it took like five hours to draft, your
- 2:58:31team that you need to clean up buddy.
- 2:58:32That's what you need to clean up, but everything else
- 2:58:34Sensational. So I got to give you a little
- 2:58:37bit of credit for that. Oh yeah, I appreciate that.
- 2:58:39If I knew you were rushing to run back and watch, Jerry
- 2:58:41Jones's documentary. I was the whole thing.
- 2:58:44So watch the whole thing, it was great.
- 2:58:46And two days, I got a chance to experience the greatness of
- 2:58:50Jerry Jones and your Dallas Cowboys of the 90s, and it's
- 2:58:53Smith's greatness, Michael, Irvin, loving the crack in and
- 2:58:56sniffing the cocaine. I'm loving it.
- 2:58:58I mean, I would have hanged hung out.
- 2:59:00What Michael Irvin in those days, too.
- 2:59:02And all the strippers he was getting forget about it.
- 2:59:05I mean, me and Michael Irvin would have been best buddies, so
- 2:59:07I'm gonna Michael Irvin story, but that's that's offline.
- 2:59:10I can't say well, I please don't do it.
- 2:59:12I don't want to get you in trouble.
- 2:59:13And I definitely want to get Michael Irvin on the show, so if
- 2:59:16you're going to scale my goal and scare Michael Irvin away, I
- 2:59:19don't want to hear it. So he was great, he was great,
- 2:59:20he was great. Yeah, well we'll talk offline.
- 2:59:22Yeah, that would be good. That would be really, really
- 2:59:24good. But I do appreciate everything
- 2:59:27that you're doing. And where's your partner?
- 2:59:29What, what's going on with him? Why is he never showing up when
- 2:59:32it comes to this show? Is there something about this
- 2:59:35show that he doesn't like? I mean seriously, I think you
- 2:59:37you this you had this newfound love for Jerry Jones.
- 2:59:40He probably would have made time to come on.
- 2:59:42I think he's out traveling right now.
- 2:59:45Coming back from New York City area, so he's probably in his
- 2:59:47car right now. Gonna listen to this when he
- 2:59:51gets back, I'm sure. But obscure for you, I'll, you
- 2:59:54know, I'll give him a hard time and, and make sure that, you
- 2:59:57know, put some pressure on him so he can bite him back, right?
- 2:59:59You have them on the shows. He's trying to hack the system.
- 3:00:02So our Travis Hunter ends up on his all 22 team.
- 3:00:05Are you kidding me? I am, I would never drink to
- 3:00:08Travis Hunter, even if he was the last guy, on the list of
- 3:00:11guys to draft, you will never see Errol marks, ever, ever in
- 3:00:16the next 10 years. If he's even in the NFL, because
- 3:00:19I say four years, he will be out of the NFL.
- 3:00:21I will never repeat myself, never draft, Travis, the gremlin
- 3:00:27hunter ever, in any kind of fantasy draft.
- 3:00:30So you could take that, you can book it and I promise you can
- 3:00:33staple that on your walls and remember I said that.
- 3:00:36So there you go. As far as I'm concerned with
- 3:00:39your one and only all 22, you definitely got to check it out.
- 3:00:42Are we going to do that this year again?
- 3:00:44Are we gonna contact to the commissioner that hasn't gotten
- 3:00:47back to me? Yeah.
- 3:00:47Well, what was going to chat? Go in the chats, the fantasy
- 3:00:51guys. Go in the chat and just start
- 3:00:53spamming like guys, but let's set the schedule up for the
- 3:00:55draft. So I was actually surprised to
- 3:00:57learn that this league. I'm actually not the
- 3:00:59commissioner because I'm Commissioner about 16 of these
- 3:01:01leads. So rightly I know I know you
- 3:01:06have your own but how many like Are you actually in?
- 3:01:11Probably probably about a dozen a little over a dozen.
- 3:01:14Maybe how? It's a way of life.
- 3:01:17It's a way of life Java. I understand that.
- 3:01:19I mean, it gets your job but like I, You find yourself, or at
- 3:01:26least I find myself when I stick to the same philosophy.
- 3:01:29I don't, I'm not the type of guy, I know a lot of people
- 3:01:31sometimes if they're in a lot of leaves they diversify, you know,
- 3:01:34so that like if they get a season ending injury to a
- 3:01:38high-profile player doesn't sink like six of their teams, that's
- 3:01:41not me. I have my philosophy and I stick
- 3:01:44to it each and every time. So I end up with a lot of
- 3:01:46similar. Yeah.
- 3:01:48They're similar enough to wear. If I know you know, whoever
- 3:01:52Chris Godwin was having a great game or something.
- 3:01:55It's gonna be good for the majority of my teams and and I'm
- 3:01:59gonna benefit from it. So, I still don't have that.
- 3:02:02Like, uber conflicted feeling when I'm watching football
- 3:02:05because, oh, it's good for half of my teams and not for the
- 3:02:07other. I stick to my philosophy sticks.
- 3:02:11He loads he does he rubs, he does everything ladies and
- 3:02:14gentlemen and he loves Travis Hunter.
- 3:02:16So I mean this guy is wonderful and by the way, if if you really
- 3:02:20want to check out some of the things that he's posting as his
- 3:02:24top five, quarterbacks to draft simply look for Trevor Lawrence.
- 3:02:28As one of the guys for do for you to draft in any one of his
- 3:02:31lists. Thank you very much Ray.
- 3:02:33We love you so very much. I'm just kidding.
- 3:02:36You know, I love you, I love busting your balls.
- 3:02:38I love busting Chris's balls. I I just love it.
- 3:02:42And yes I am not a new found, Jerry Jones fan, I think Jerry
- 3:02:46Jones is a lot more interesting to listen to now because you
- 3:02:50know, the back end in the background of who he is a man
- 3:02:53and what he has done for professional football, that's
- 3:02:56all I'm saying. I didn't realize how important
- 3:02:58he has been for the NFL and then the National Football League and
- 3:03:01now he bought a team that was really not worth anything and
- 3:03:05the league was worth nothing. When he took over in 1999, he
- 3:03:09turned the NFL and changed the NFL into a multi-billion dollar
- 3:03:12organization and the richest and is bringing in more money when
- 3:03:16it comes to riches and sponsorships in advertisements
- 3:03:18because of him, he is the reason why the NFL is where it is
- 3:03:22today. So, it's very interesting.
- 3:03:24It's, it's very intriguing and if you're a football fan, you
- 3:03:27got to check it out. All right, we love you.
- 3:03:29Have a very good night, my friend, and whatever I already
- 3:03:33have. And by the way, we're doing a
- 3:03:35Fantasy, we're doing a job in a mouth, fantasy league.
- 3:03:37We're gonna do it this year. You and your, your buddy over
- 3:03:41there should be joining it. We should definitely get it
- 3:03:43together off. Speedy, set it up, job will be
- 3:03:45part of it. Nick goody will be a part of.
- 3:03:47It will all be a part of it and we will watch you fall flat on
- 3:03:50your face because you're going to draft the Travis, the one the
- 3:03:53hunter, the gremlin himself as your number one.
- 3:03:56Number two, pick or something of them.
- 3:03:58Everybody has to do a name that's based on Netflix.
- 3:04:01Oh, dropping the hammer or just breaking news goody as know.
- 3:04:07Woody Bagel, yummy, yum. I get Glory.
- 3:04:10All right anyways, we love you Ray.
- 3:04:13Thank you very much, my bud. And we will talk to you soon.
- 3:04:17Always a pleasure guys, really appreciate it.
- 3:04:19Ray Connell ladies and gentlemen, the gremlin lover
- 3:04:22himself, I and travel Lawrence. I mean, I am a little lost
- 3:04:26tonight. I don't know what's going on.
- 3:04:27I I've had vertigo, I threw up twice.
- 3:04:30I might I and it's starting to go away.
- 3:04:33I'm actually feeling a little bit better, so hey, it was
- 3:04:37almost two hours of this guys. You don't understand how how bad
- 3:04:41vertical could be to you, and it was before the show, I started,
- 3:04:45feeling dizzy. I sat down in the first segment
- 3:04:48and I couldn't even see the screen.
- 3:04:49I was seeing like, like three of them and it was very, very hard
- 3:04:53for me. And I want to apologize for the
- 3:04:55fan to the fans for all the things that I was dealing with
- 3:04:58in the beginning of the show. I I it's never happened to me on
- 3:05:02the show, but when that happens, I can't even explain how sick I
- 3:05:06got. And during the first Sportsman,
- 3:05:09I ran to the bathroom and I threw up almost twice in the
- 3:05:12ball and I came back out here and I just went through it.
- 3:05:15I don't even know. Anyways.
- 3:05:17We got a couple more segments to go.
- 3:05:18And Now, ladies and gentlemen, we call this jabber rules. you
- 3:05:23need to make it you Alright guys, welcome to another episode
- 3:05:32of java rules, Java time for you to tell us what rules tonight.
- 3:05:38I'm gonna go this argument that we've kind of seen here in the
- 3:05:44last week with the awl and VP in what rules for me and and the
- 3:05:50rules for me this week is going to be are the voters really
- 3:05:55gonna pay attention to have average?
- 3:05:57Because if we look at it, Cal rally is having a great year.
- 3:06:01So he going to set records? Yes he is.
- 3:06:03But also are you going to give an MVP to a guy's hidden too for
- 3:06:0740? He only has leading in two
- 3:06:09categories. Home runs and RBIs.
- 3:06:13And I don't know what the rules are.
- 3:06:15This is, this is one of those things where I had to figure out
- 3:06:18on the Fly. And we're going to figure this
- 3:06:20out on the Fly and what they value as far as what is
- 3:06:23important. Because in every statistical
- 3:06:26plus year, plus in wars, and FRP, and elements and minuses,
- 3:06:32and pluses. Aaron, judge is killing Cal
- 3:06:36Raleigh. and there's only two, I just don't understand how you
- 3:06:42don't give it to to judge being. In every statistical category,
- 3:06:48other than two. That he is not winning.
- 3:06:51I MLB network is trying everything.
- 3:06:54And is it going to be like we've talked about before in different
- 3:06:58sports? Do they want to see somebody
- 3:07:00different when? They haven't never given an nvp
- 3:07:04to a guy that is a 40. So what were the rules be?
- 3:07:09And what will they try and think of next?
- 3:07:12Because they're going to make up some rule where it's going to
- 3:07:15show what it is and it'll be interesting.
- 3:07:18This last 35 games where they all end up and what they value,
- 3:07:23and what their rule is, and who's going to be the MVP?
- 3:07:27So it seems Java not a lot of clarity just like eating have so
- 3:07:30much Clarity back on your rules. That's why that's why I brought
- 3:07:34it up cuz I'm like, I don't I don't know where they go with
- 3:07:36this. Like what are they doing this?
- 3:07:38So that was kind of one when I thought about that I was like
- 3:07:41this kind of makes sense, because I don't really know what
- 3:07:43the hell they were doing with me early reminiscent Java rules for
- 3:07:48this evening. Oh, And you know what?
- 3:07:51I, I don't know. I know everybody's sitting here
- 3:07:54today and probably I got, by the way, we got two new listeners
- 3:07:57today. So I want to give a shout out to
- 3:07:59Waylon and Meredith, listening to the show right now.
- 3:08:02We really appreciate you guys tuning in and one of one of the
- 3:08:06one of the guys said, oh man, I've had refer to go before.
- 3:08:09That is the worst. I don't even know how you're
- 3:08:11doing the show right now and I it's finally I feel normal.
- 3:08:15It's not something that you can ever imagine.
- 3:08:18If you've never been through it or you've never had it before,
- 3:08:20it's something you couldn't even imagine going through.
- 3:08:23So I just want to let everybody know.
- 3:08:24I want to apologize to the fans early in the show.
- 3:08:27I I think it was okay but I I don't even know how I did it.
- 3:08:30Anyways. Ladies and gentlemen, goodies
- 3:08:33bag of balls, my mom's gonna work, her car battery on my
- 3:08:37testicles, trying to put tiger balm on this jungle's nuts.

- 3:08:47Yes, that's the best one man. That is the best job.
- 3:08:50It really hold on to the ground Arrow.
- 3:08:53I feel like you take a heroic dose of mushrooms and now you're
- 3:08:57just, you know, you're a longer for the rod baby.
- 3:08:59If it was mushrooms, I would have felt a lot better than I
- 3:09:02did, man, I am telling you, I have never thrown up like that
- 3:09:07before, dude, I feel must be licking.
- 3:09:10The microphone. I didn't even eat anything, I
- 3:09:13didn't even eat anything and I was throwing up as much as I
- 3:09:15was, I shut the door. I was I know applesauce.

- 3:09:34guys understand what the top of the day, right?
- 3:09:37I've lost 27 pounds. I've been really, really good.
- 3:09:39No apple sauce. I haven't had a sugar drink in
- 3:09:44like, 10 and a half weeks. It's almost 11 weeks.
- 3:09:47I did a cold turkey, baby and me and fish were going back and
- 3:09:50forth. You gotta do it.
- 3:09:51You gotta do it and I did it. So guess what?
- 3:09:53I look good. Maybe that's the reason why I
- 3:09:56have no. It's I'm just kidding.
- 3:09:57Anyways, go ahead, I'm sorry. Oh, that's great, I'm happy.
- 3:09:59I'm happy to hear your Healthy you're back.
- 3:10:01Hold on the earth. I got a couple couple of
- 3:10:05Stories. Some headlines here.
- 3:10:07Today, the Pirates are promoting Bubba Chandler.
- 3:10:11Baseball's top pitching prospect there, he's 22 years old and
- 3:10:16he's getting his first call up. He's a former two-way Prospect
- 3:10:19who committed wholly to pitching.
- 3:10:25He I don't know if you know much about them, but By octane
- 3:10:28fastball it goes in the upper 90s as a pretty good slider,
- 3:10:31he's starting to get a feel for a changeup and this is for the
- 3:10:34Pittsburgh Pirates. Obviously he hopes the Pirates
- 3:10:38hope that he could spark some excitement and on otherwise
- 3:10:41turmoil year here as they are franchise building around young
- 3:10:47talent. But the kid is 22 years old
- 3:10:50Java. When did you get called up?
- 3:10:53Three months, 20, 20 or 21, one of the two.
- 3:10:57Okay. obviously, you sparked a lot of excitement and Yankees
- 3:11:04fans as, you know, being the outspoken player and person that
- 3:11:08she were and are We'll kind of what kind of things can he
- 3:11:12expect and his first call up. I mean, obviously we're trying
- 3:11:16to get excitement from the fans, we know he's a top tier Talent.
- 3:11:18Right. You know he brings a lot of
- 3:11:20talent. He's gonna be he's a lot of heat
- 3:11:22with his fastball. He's got a good slider.
- 3:11:26I got called up a little later I think I was 24.
- 3:11:29So not too much older than he was but I kind of you know maybe
- 3:11:33a little more mature but you coming up as a 20 year old 21
- 3:11:37year old. And this guy coming up as a 22
- 3:11:39year old was sort of things, can he expect, and what should he
- 3:11:42do? If you were to get him advice
- 3:11:44right now, honestly, my best advice would be looking at the
- 3:11:47dude in the clubhouse talked to fall.
- 3:11:49He's gone through it. He's gonna have that obviously.
- 3:11:54Paul being a little bit more of a household name but you got to
- 3:11:57rely on those guys that you know, have been there in and did
- 3:12:01it in that market so they can kind of understand that and I
- 3:12:04think that's that's your best bet going in.
- 3:12:06And obviously with you know, the accolades to get there and and
- 3:12:11to be that Prospect. But to kind of have that
- 3:12:13transfer of, okay this is this ain't Triple A anymore and and
- 3:12:18rely on fall and you know, use him as a crutch.
- 3:12:20Talk to I would say B is open-minded and don't feel like
- 3:12:25any question is stupid when you get to that point because I get
- 3:12:29it's it's sometimes scary, probably not as scary in that
- 3:12:33clubhouse as it is, in some older Clubhouse is where those
- 3:12:36guys have been there. So I think he's in a good
- 3:12:39situation just because it is a bunch of younger guys to wear
- 3:12:43it. He doesn't feel like such an
- 3:12:45outcast. Yeah, I was reading a little bit
- 3:12:47about the kid and his high school coach said that he is
- 3:12:51John Smoltz. He's that type of pitcher.
- 3:12:54He's froze, like John Smoltz. He's the number one.
- 3:12:57Yeah, yeah, it's almost top pitching Prospect.
- 3:13:01Were you the top 50 baseball? Top fishing Prospect?
- 3:13:04Well, they switched me to reliever so it changed like the
- 3:13:09future's game. I had best rated best fastball
- 3:13:11or whatever for bigger, one of the top rated.
- 3:13:14Yeah yeah. He's is there a pressure for
- 3:13:18expectations? Of being labeled baseball's top,
- 3:13:22pitching prospects. Can you you're gonna be There's
- 3:13:26gonna be some scrutiny that. Well, there's gonna be even more
- 3:13:30too when you got that dude sitting in your clubhouse too.
- 3:13:34but also, where I think it's not as much scrutiny or as much like
- 3:13:41Pressure. There's no such thing as
- 3:13:42pressure to me. You're getting paid hundreds and
- 3:13:44millions of dollars to throw a baseball.
- 3:13:46That's not pressure. Pressure pressures.
- 3:13:48When you come home, the lights are off and you can't pay your
- 3:13:50bills. That's pressure, throwing a
- 3:13:51baseball is not pressure. If you write But I think for him
- 3:13:56being the situation that the Pirates are in, its he's just
- 3:14:00gonna come in and get a feel and get his feet wet.
- 3:14:02It's not necessarily. Hey, you're coming in to save
- 3:14:05the season, he's gonna come in, get the pace of the game, the
- 3:14:08tempo of the game because people don't understand how much faster
- 3:14:12the game is. When you get to the big leagues,
- 3:14:14everybody has pitch clock or whatever, but the game just
- 3:14:18moves at a different pace and you don't really realize it as
- 3:14:21you're going up until you get to the big league and then you go
- 3:14:24back down to like, make like a rehab start now.
- 3:14:26Yeah, I'm about to fall asleep. Yeah, it's crazy.
- 3:14:30The lights are not as bright as for sure but there's going to be
- 3:14:33an adjustment here for him and for Arrow and Speedy.
- 3:14:36I've been any prospects with arrow with in New York and
- 3:14:39Speedy with the Mets that you have followed and have been
- 3:14:42actually excited about because I got to imagine some of the
- 3:14:44Pittsburgh Pirates. Like faithful have fallen this
- 3:14:47kid from draft day all the way to now making his major league
- 3:14:51debut. Is there anybody that you
- 3:14:52followed for say with the Yankees or Speedy with With the
- 3:14:55Mets that you will followed like and have just been like, this is
- 3:14:58the guy like you, you love the gremlin like he's gonna be
- 3:15:01playing. I don't you all of them.
- 3:15:03You have met him. You are, you are on his balls.
- 3:15:05I love I was never on his balls. I never wanted to be around him
- 3:15:09and everything ever since he spoke.
- 3:15:11And he said the stupid things that came out of his mouth at
- 3:15:14the eyes. Me trophy, I didn't want to hear
- 3:15:16what he had to say. I didn't want him on my dude.
- 3:15:18You say busted balls about 17 times last time.
- 3:15:20It's true. He was busting balls because
- 3:15:23he's all about bulls honestly. The two guys that really stuck.
- 3:15:27Stuck out to me in those year in the early years was Phillippe
- 3:15:32Phil Hughes and John. It was Phil using Java.
- 3:15:36And those were the two guys that I was reading about.
- 3:15:38And I got a chance to watch these guys, develop and called
- 3:15:42up and, and both guys were being compared to each other.
- 3:15:45So is he in Kennedy, when these three guys were first round
- 3:15:48talents, and they were being compared with one another, but
- 3:15:51that was one thing that I knew about Java, Chamberlain, that
- 3:15:54really thought Well, when Java when we interviewed job and I
- 3:15:57told Java what I liked about him, was his personality going
- 3:16:00on the field and doing the things that he did showing
- 3:16:03enthusiasm, Philip used was quiet and it really do anything.
- 3:16:06And he in Canada was really just like mellow and and laid back.
- 3:16:10When I watched oportun, everything everything that he
- 3:16:13threw, he was throwing with force in and, you know, Pizzazz.
- 3:16:16That's what I want to see. I want to see those kind of
- 3:16:18guys. I want to see guys that are
- 3:16:19gonna bring bring the fans to, to that level.
- 3:16:22And and that's that's the guy that I'm not trying to blow your
- 3:16:26head up job, but you were the guy you were the guy that really
- 3:16:29stood out to me, in, in the younger, in the younger years of
- 3:16:33what. I followed the New York Yankees
- 3:16:35in the early 2000s. So, I would say you Speedy,
- 3:16:39nice. So I would say for the Mets, a
- 3:16:41lot of the times of the Mets because they really relied on
- 3:16:44their homegrown pitching a lot. I think Matt Harvey probably had
- 3:16:46the biggest hype. Remember that I remember for
- 3:16:49sure, they've tracked they tracked him for like two years
- 3:16:52before he even came off and like it was always because the Metro
- 3:16:55so bad. At that time was like when he's
- 3:16:57gonna come up. When is this like pitching
- 3:16:58Revolution was gonna start kindergarten a little bit of the
- 3:17:01high exact wheeler? I traded for Zachary that same
- 3:17:05level of hype, he was a he was a first round Talent by the
- 3:17:08Giants. The way Matt Harvey did, he was
- 3:17:10traded from Carlos Beltran know? Know as a prospect, he was rated
- 3:17:14just. Hi I just exactly was going to
- 3:17:16be from the like the media car. I think what good he's getting
- 3:17:19at is more the media coverage standpoint, Matt Harvey, just
- 3:17:21quiet. The two guys Harvey, Matt Harvey
- 3:17:25injected excitement in the fan base, in at the New York.
- 3:17:29I was actually somebody who I didn't even watch baseball, when
- 3:17:33I got Tommy John, I like refused to watch it.
- 3:17:35I just like was better towards it because I was out not
- 3:17:37playing. He was the one pitcher of all.
- 3:17:40I didn't even watch the Yankees. I don't watch anything.
- 3:17:42He was the one pitcher that I turned on to watch because that
- 3:17:44dude was an absolute freaking. Yeah.
- 3:17:46I was actually at the game that he homered and at Citi Field.
- 3:17:50All right? We don't care.
- 3:17:51I'm going to, I don't want to hear that.
- 3:17:53I know, started bleeding after like the sixth round.
- 3:17:57I wonder why. I wonder why is Noah's was
- 3:18:00cleaning? Mmm.
- 3:18:02Well louder a little powder. I will want to trash my RV.
- 3:18:10I actually, I don't, I never met the guy, he played the game so
- 3:18:16you know, I love that. I love that during after games,
- 3:18:20he was going to clubs trying to pick up girls.
- 3:18:23Trying to find some hot ladies as Nathan would say, I mean
- 3:18:27trying to tie a leash to them and doing all the things that he
- 3:18:30was doing and smoking. Cigarettes, lots and lots of
- 3:18:33cigarettes. Great job.
- 3:18:34Matt, we love you. Congratulations of sweep, the
- 3:18:42manners, and a store Fashion. The Phillies dominated Seattle
- 3:18:45with their pitching and their, hitting their starters combined
- 3:18:48for 34 strikeouts and three games.
- 3:18:49All offense, produce 408 hits. The sweeps comes just as Ace.
- 3:18:55Who is it? Is that Java?
- 3:18:58You make me laugh? Showing the team's death and
- 3:19:03resilience. Here we go.
- 3:19:05That's the rotation depth is proving strong without their a.
- 3:19:11So we know that they're going to be loaded.
- 3:19:12They'd be always know that they can pitch.
- 3:19:13They have a former Yankee as they're pitching coach.
- 3:19:16Former manager, too Rob Thompson, Caleb cothams, they're
- 3:19:20pitching, coach job. I think play with him.
- 3:19:21I played with him as well. We know that they can hit their
- 3:19:24offenses. Legit, they had 487 long hair.
- 3:19:27Kevin long was the Yankees hitting coach Jay long as well.
- 3:19:30Yeah, there you go. We did.
- 3:19:31They just if you can coach in New York?
- 3:19:34They, a lot of teams will poach, coaches and players.
- 3:19:37But a lot of coaches, get pushed away from the New York Yankees
- 3:19:40because they build such a good stuff.
- 3:19:42Now, obviously, obviously, there's a, there's a lot of
- 3:19:46turmoil going on right now with their boo.
- 3:19:48We know that you've covered that movie, you know, crazy.
- 3:19:50But speaking solely on the Phillies, this is a huge
- 3:19:55historic performance and momentum, get her.
- 3:19:57What do you see them? Where do you see them?
- 3:20:02Ending. I don't remember who you had in
- 3:20:03the world series at the start of the year.
- 3:20:06Who did Jeff sweetie? I had the I had the Phillies
- 3:20:08winning it all against Kansas City.
- 3:20:10I will be wrong on the Royals, but they were my pick for a
- 3:20:13reason because I think a lot of the, like, systemic things.
- 3:20:16What we talked about earlier, with our, with our guests, and
- 3:20:18Kyle Peterson with the Brewers, like sometimes like types of
- 3:20:20like pitching philosophies, like that with the Brewers they
- 3:20:23didn't work in the postseason and the Dodgers.
- 3:20:25I mean they got they got it to work last year.
- 3:20:26But how much can they do with all the injuries?
- 3:20:28They have. The Phillies are the ones that
- 3:20:29can rely on like a raw process with their players.
- 3:20:31A lot more. I think I had the Rangers in the
- 3:20:34World Series this year. Didn't I have the Rangers?
- 3:20:36Yes. Ranger the Ranger's.
- 3:20:38I'm trying to remember in the National.
- 3:20:39I had the Texas Rangers. I I'm thinking I was no, the
- 3:20:44Reds. I know, Cody, I didn't have the
- 3:20:46red, you not. I never thought I knew the Reds
- 3:20:49were never making the playoffs, by the way.
- 3:20:51How are you ready? Doing now, buddy?
- 3:20:54Oh, you're right. He's doing now.
- 3:20:56I wouldn't say they're my red. I've just told me the reds are
- 3:21:01making the playoffs. You, and job was trying to sell
- 3:21:03me that the Reds were making the play.
- 3:21:05I think you should go back that. I think it was time.
- 3:21:10He does. Trust me, just trust the
- 3:21:13process. The first season's gonna be a
- 3:21:15little rocky. It's gonna be a little shaky,
- 3:21:16but thanks. Well, I know he took the Red Sox
- 3:21:18to the World Series and wanted to leave under the world series
- 3:21:20Lost and buy a home. Or do you believe in the tooth
- 3:21:25fairy? oh, you gonna go to your
- 3:21:33question that could lead to a conspiracy theory.
- 3:21:34Yo, we gotta wrap this, we gotta get going dog.
- 3:21:40I am the Tooth Fairy. Hey, don't hey, as a tooth fairy
- 3:21:46and as the Two Dads here, don't mess up like I did.
- 3:21:50Man, I panicked it happened. He got ready for bed, like he
- 3:21:56was brushing his teeth and fell out.
- 3:21:57So it was like right at the end of the night.
- 3:22:00And I'm like shitt I don't know if I have any money.
- 3:22:03That's what I'm saying bro. And I looked and I only had 100
- 3:22:08No chance. Did you slip on that?
- 3:22:10And I went a hot. Don't make that mistake.
- 3:22:13I had. He was gonna leave it.
- 3:22:16I owe you to my freaking five year old.
- 3:22:19He's like don't make that mistake.
- 3:22:22I literally for one of this top teeth and then like he lost like
- 3:22:31a little one and I gave him like, I don't know, four bucks,
- 3:22:34three, two, you know, somewhere like that he's like four bucks.
- 3:22:38How is this? We're like one of the nights and
- 3:22:42like, I don't know, maybe the two Perry couldn't find it.
- 3:22:44Oh dude, I fell asleep on the couch.
- 3:22:46Oh, my father. My father.
- 3:22:49My father. When I was 12 years old and I I
- 3:22:52knew it was my father because he left, he didn't leave any money.
- 3:22:55He left the cracker in a bag. Okay, that's what my father did
- 3:22:59to me. All right, true story, then.
- 3:23:02Bye guys, know, but I was so happy.
- 3:23:06I was so excited to wake up and to go on to my pillow and I see
- 3:23:09a bag of plastic bag. And I'm like, oh, wonder what's
- 3:23:11in it? It was a Ritz, cracker, a rich
- 3:23:15cracker, ladies and gentlemen, that's what I got for one of my
- 3:23:18from mighty one of my teeth so, you know, my molars so that's
- 3:23:24pressure. Yeah, thank you.
- 3:23:26That was feeling. It was feeling it.
- 3:23:28Yeah. Well, it was my big thing with
- 3:23:32the Phillies are they picking to early like, we're picking her
- 3:23:35early here in August. Are they going to be able to
- 3:23:37sustain this? I don't think they're going to
- 3:23:38Stainless throughout the rest of the year, but stranger things
- 3:23:41have happened. So we'll see.
- 3:23:42They're very streaky Team all the time.
- 3:23:43Anyway, like when they got, when they went to the World Series,
- 3:23:46they were hot and then they were really cold like in August and
- 3:23:48then got hot again and then the year after they were the
- 3:23:50Opposites. So they just do everything in
- 3:23:52clusters and he added something. So very special to the
- 3:23:55everything at the end of the Year, stranger things.
- 3:23:58The final season is coming out. I'm excited.
- 3:24:01I'm so excited the final season final season, final season, I've
- 3:24:05been waiting for like five years for this to come out.
- 3:24:08It's gonna be like we can old. Yeah.
- 3:24:11It's been a long, long time. I'm so excited.
- 3:24:13You got to check out the. Check out the YouTube trailer.
- 3:24:17It's fantastic. I'm so excited to be scared of
- 3:24:20now, they've seen it all. What was that thing called?
- 3:24:25Jabba's. The bad guy in the final take
- 3:24:30right there and they're gonna be scared of the new tooth.
- 3:24:33Fairy Nick goodies. All right, I'll be the Grinch is
- 3:24:45your Alter Ego. Is the Tooth Fairy that you two
- 3:24:47year searching for. Oh my gosh, if any of the
- 3:24:50listeners have the first edition, shining YouTube hit up
- 3:24:54job in the mouth. I got some gear to trade you.
- 3:24:57Oh god, there he goes. There, he goes with these cars.
- 3:25:01YouTube for a minute, bro, I'm will.
- 3:25:05Hey, did you guys go to the car show and sell any cards?
- 3:25:08And I didn't get to make it bro I think we I didn't get to make
- 3:25:11it some stuff happen and I just I couldn't get down there so I
- 3:25:15ended up buying I ended up selling some textbooks back and
- 3:25:18bought my son a card. He was like super stoked.
- 3:25:21So young guard, but You know, it it's neither here and there.
- 3:25:24All right, last one on the list. Here, I think Arrow actually had
- 3:25:27the Astros winning the World Series, who just got swept by
- 3:25:30the time, never, I think he never had the Astro, never found
- 3:25:38it gave up. Okay, that happens.
- 3:25:43Anybody else that happens? What I came here.
- 3:25:49Bubba, they got, we just talked about for the parts.
- 3:25:51We'll see you. We'll see.
- 3:25:55He's getting option. All right.
- 3:25:56But he gave up, he gave up six runs in the first inning and he
- 3:26:00started Houston's. Office.
- 3:26:03It was usually they're pretty good.
- 3:26:05They're solid team. Straight up fence.
- 3:26:08I got it. Yeah.
- 3:26:09All right. All right.
- 3:26:10Well it is what it is, right? So we're just a wake up call
- 3:26:14like just sweep the foursome some some roster or some
- 3:26:19strategic adjustments within the front office for season gets
- 3:26:24absolutely. Yeah.
- 3:26:25Or are they going to allow their younger players to get some
- 3:26:28looks such as like the Pirates. We talked about they're going to
- 3:26:31be able to call some guys up, you know, they have a
- 3:26:34left-handed pitcher that I know Colton Gordon.
- 3:26:36He's made his debut this year. He's pitching fine.
- 3:26:38I mean, he's serviceable. I really like them.
- 3:26:41I hope he does extremely well. But like, are we gonna get
- 3:26:43extended looks from rookies? What do you think this late is?
- 3:26:48It definitely a tough dilemma because you want them to get
- 3:26:50that kind of because the Astros have been stable for a while.
- 3:26:52You want them to get that kind of like later season experience.
- 3:26:55I mean throwing them into the fire.
- 3:26:56You never know. But I think the way that the
- 3:26:58Astros pitching sells enough depth, I don't think you're
- 3:27:00really forcing anything on them so trying to ease them and might
- 3:27:03not be the worst thing hitting is where it's more questionable
- 3:27:06with Houston. I think depth wise for the
- 3:27:08postseason. That was the thing that
- 3:27:09concerned me at the start of the year, but they like, you say
- 3:27:11goodbye. They've been better than
- 3:27:11expected. It doesn't matter.
- 3:27:12Yeah, Houston's not going to the World Series.
- 3:27:15I think they have a good pitching staff.
- 3:27:17I don't think they have enough bats.
- 3:27:18And we're gonna say is that they don't have their health is
- 3:27:24always a concern there and Houston and to the fact that
- 3:27:28they brought Korea back to play Third.
- 3:27:30I mean, they're gonna be haunting that because they
- 3:27:33still, they still got to pay him.
- 3:27:35And what did they have three years left on that contract?
- 3:27:38Good luck on that. I mean, twins are paying most of
- 3:27:43it. They're still.
- 3:27:43They're still paying something out of it.
- 3:27:45They're not paying all There they played, paid the most out
- 3:27:48of the teams, the twins tried to trade with him.
- 3:27:49I mean, you have to deal with that for three years.
- 3:27:54And right now, Houston needs the power in their lineup and they
- 3:27:58don't have any. So I I just there's no way
- 3:28:01Houston's winning world series. I don't even see if they're a
- 3:28:04wild card team. They're going to be knocked down
- 3:28:06in the wild card game. They have great.
- 3:28:07Pitching pitching winching, just bought a has anything up asleep?
- 3:28:11No, no, no, not a chance in hell, I mean, they're pitching
- 3:28:15up and down. Valdez has been inconsistently.
- 3:28:19There is some concerns for the rotation, but he's the guy.
- 3:28:22He's the go-to guy for them. So, You know, we talked about a
- 3:28:27pulse games. We talk about somebody in the
- 3:28:28clubhouse so you can watch but if the guys not pitching right,
- 3:28:31I mean he's still is Grandma about does like I mean he's
- 3:28:33still gonna get the job done but obviously with their lineup in
- 3:28:36their offense, that's what I think is going to take the
- 3:28:39biggest hit, I don't foresee them, maybe maybe in September,
- 3:28:41they'll call up some of their call-ups and get, some looks
- 3:28:46like younger guys, but That's at least that's what the Yankees.
- 3:28:51Um, did about every September, they would just load the roster.
- 3:28:55Call up all 40 guys. And then basically just one more
- 3:28:58up by seven down by seven, throwing the rookies and kind of
- 3:29:01get their feet wet. So, maybe the Astros do that.
- 3:29:03Give their their Heavy Hitters a blow.
- 3:29:05But I don't know. We'll see.
- 3:29:07And then obviously, the hater haters deal that we spoke last
- 3:29:11week about. We'll see what ends up happening
- 3:29:13with that. They're they said, at least
- 3:29:15three weeks, right? yeah, but three weeks can be
- 3:29:20seasoning. Yeah, could be.
- 3:29:22Hey, you're working three. We could be three weeks and then
- 3:29:25not, you know, he gets a couple PRP.
- 3:29:26He gets a PRP shot and some stem cells and baby got stuck in his
- 3:29:29shoulder. And next thing, you know, he's
- 3:29:31coming back on 100 so you never know they're doomed.
- 3:29:35That's all I'm gonna say. Absolutely doomed.
- 3:29:37Ladies and gentlemen. Houston's that's right, that's
- 3:29:40the perfect picture for goody right there.
- 3:29:42Wonderful, the tooth fairy or whatever.
- 3:29:44Tooth Fairy are Mr. Nick Goodyear, right?
- 3:29:48Oh I gotta figure out how to do that, dude.
- 3:29:51Good call, man. I don't even know how that we
- 3:29:54got onto that subject. That was freaking.
- 3:29:56Oh you want me to Pat myself on the back?
- 3:29:59Maybe it was my vertigo, I don't know, we need nothing to make a
- 3:30:01tooth fairy drop so good. He could use it first fantasy
- 3:30:04name. I am hearing a lot of different
- 3:30:06things today. I've been hearing drops loads
- 3:30:08rubbing. I mean, this is been a really
- 3:30:11disgusting Show, Ladies and Gentlemen.
- 3:30:13Oh, you're the one over here talking about busting balls.
- 3:30:15I first of all, I for, I never said, busting balls.
- 3:30:19I said, ball busting. That's what I said.
- 3:30:21That's all I said. I didn't say busting balls.
- 3:30:23I said, ball busting and like when your balls.
- 3:30:27Yeah. Well, guess what?
- 3:30:28Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new king.
- 3:30:31I don't know why we call this next segment.
- 3:30:34King of the Hill. Here's the king of the Hill is
- 3:30:39the Beltline you never ever hit below that, not that kind of
- 3:30:45This is King of the Hill smell my ass.
- 3:30:49I need Brittany. So So I everybody Welcome.
- 3:30:54Wait wait. Wait wait, whoa.
- 3:30:56Don't even how many whys why we got to be up there with the
- 3:31:00helmet on. I, let's just face hubby, I'm
- 3:31:03not making the new graphics. I'll be you.
- 3:31:05Just call me, but you win again. Maybe I will, Nick goody is
- 3:31:10first week, defending his crown Arrow.
- 3:31:14Marks is gonna have to play Down Below.
- 3:31:16I think we're gonna get Aaron in as well, to play King of the
- 3:31:20Hill, first round peasant fight for people battle it out to get
- 3:31:24to the joust decided by King goody over here to who will face
- 3:31:28off against the king for a chance at the crown, where it'll
- 3:31:32be a democratic vote to see who keeps it.
- 3:31:35Are you ready to play on it? You don't have to play anything
- 3:31:41but the final round, you get a, you get a last slick.
- 3:31:44Don't you? Is that?
- 3:31:45I mean, seriously, that work on the hybrid graphic of the tooth,
- 3:31:55fairy and King together, So wait a second, I only get like three
- 3:31:59free AI things a day Speedy but it's not the way goes very high
- 3:32:08bird. Oh all right we got our guys in
- 3:32:11let's play King of the Hill, first round.
- 3:32:15Here it is. We've got best managers of all
- 3:32:21time. Yes, this goes all the way back
- 3:32:24to the days of I guess the Civil War when the game was created by
- 3:32:30Abner Doubleday. I don't know if you was a
- 3:32:33manager. He was probably just a, I think
- 3:32:34it was a major general actually but he did invent baseball so
- 3:32:38they say so anything from that point in time to today best
- 3:32:42leaders, I'm a franchise. Let's start it off here on King
- 3:32:48of the Hill. Going first, we'll be Speedy,
- 3:32:50then Aaron Errol. And then for two Speedy, all
- 3:32:53right, I'll start off with the Yankees manager at the 50s.
- 3:32:56Joe McCarthy one, I believe five world series and that span.
- 3:32:59And what's the winningest manager in Yankee history?
- 3:33:01For a lot of, a lot of that time and I coach a lot of great
- 3:33:04players, but again, that was a pretty free agency.
- 3:33:07All right. It wasn't like George
- 3:33:08Steinbrenner was spending crazy that so you have to really
- 3:33:10develop those players. You make the good trades and end
- 3:33:13up creating it. Probably the second Yankee
- 3:33:15Dynasty after the Babe Ruth era, but Still did it for a very long
- 3:33:18time. Aaron.
- 3:33:21Also gonna stay with the Yankees, I'm gonna go office you
- 3:33:24again. It's PCS.
- 3:33:27Don't require the like Speedy just mentioned with the early
- 3:33:30ankys, but again, so many World Series Championships.
- 3:33:32So many good teams. I'm gonna stick with that.
- 3:33:35Errol. I'm gonna go with Tony larussa
- 3:33:38won three World Series. Obviously one one with the we
- 3:33:41want a couple with Saint Louis and you're also won with the
- 3:33:43A's, the Oakland Athletics. That's the guy I'm going with
- 3:33:46Tony larussa. And Jabba for two.
- 3:33:51Um, I'm going way back to and I just I played in This World
- 3:33:56Series so I'm gonna have to go Connie Mack.
- 3:33:59Obviously, all-time leader started, you know, as as a
- 3:34:04baseball player and, you know, they, they always say the best
- 3:34:06managers are catchers and he happened to be a catcher too.
- 3:34:11And now it's it's crazy to think how long he managed and and what
- 3:34:15he meant to the game of baseball and obviously they're still a
- 3:34:18World Series named after him, so he is definitely on my list and
- 3:34:22I'm gonna be I'm gonna be that guy.
- 3:34:25I'm gonna have to go Bobby Cox because I born a brace fan and
- 3:34:29the man leads and as one of the best ever get thrown out.
- 3:34:33I don't know who was better him or earlier, but Bobby and all
- 3:34:37the things, 15 division championships, obviously he was
- 3:34:41the GM. Before he was the one that
- 3:34:42actually drafted Chipper Jones, he was in the front office from
- 3:34:45that happened. When they hit one to take him
- 3:34:46and he's got a World Series under his belt and he always
- 3:34:49wore Spike's and that's just something that is just real.
- 3:34:53Errol. Alright, I'm gonna go with Bruce
- 3:34:57Bochy. I mean Bruce Bochy, he's won.
- 3:35:00He's got, he's taking two, two teams to World Series and one,
- 3:35:04he's thinking, three teams to the World Series and want and
- 3:35:07three teams. So World Series and two teams
- 3:35:09that he's won with. There's not many play, many
- 3:35:12managers that's ever, won with two teams in the World Series
- 3:35:16and and actually if taking three teams to a world tour, so I'm
- 3:35:19gonna go with Bruce Bochy. Very time of the soda.
- 3:35:24With the Dodgers for such a long time.
- 3:35:27Bringing them to the World Series twice and the 70s and
- 3:35:30twice in the 80s, losing one. And then, obviously winning 88
- 3:35:33being with. Like I said, Speedy for two,
- 3:35:39I'll go with a Sparky Anderson managing the Big Red Machine
- 3:35:42back in the 70s to one, two, three World Series.
- 3:35:44There was one of the top 10 winningest managers in that in
- 3:35:48that time period, as well winning percentage wise.
- 3:35:50So, definitely Sparky Anderson was in baseball for a very long
- 3:35:53time as well. And another guy that was in
- 3:35:55baseball for a very long time, too that was Dusty Baker.
- 3:35:56Eighth all-time in wins obviously taking many different
- 3:35:59teams to the many different teams in the playoffs Pokemon
- 3:36:02World Series, which probably the only thing against him.
- 3:36:04But still one of the best player, managers one of the best
- 3:36:07guys in baseball that we've seen for a long time Aaron.
- 3:36:11It's taking both of my picks, you know, I'm gonna stick in my,
- 3:36:14I'm gonna go with Terry Francona, he's probably gonna
- 3:36:16end up with what being one of the best managers in baseball.
- 3:36:19Once he ended here, obviously being with the Red Sox in 2004,
- 3:36:23then obviously Cleveland now. So many different good teams.
- 3:36:27He's brought to the playoffs and to go upstairs.
- 3:36:29I'm gonna go with Billy Martin five-time World Series champion,
- 3:36:35he was hired twice by the boss and yeah, he was a little crazy
- 3:36:40but really stuck out to me as one of the greatest managers of
- 3:36:43all time. So I'm gonna go Billy, Martin
- 3:36:45and job at a wrap up the round. I'm gonna go the man, the myth
- 3:36:49and the toothpick legend himself and Mr. Dusty bakeries.
- 3:36:53Oh, who took him May speed? I was my last back.
- 3:36:57Oh damn, you know, so you know what?
- 3:36:58I am actually gonna go with It's going to be out there and I
- 3:37:05don't know if it's really going to be.
- 3:37:06I'm gonna take Walter Johnson and he doesn't really get the
- 3:37:11credit that he deserves, because he was a hell of a pitcher.
- 3:37:14Obviously. but to do the things that he did and on as what he
- 3:37:20Chose to do as a man. I'm just making this stuff
- 3:37:23because I have no idea. So my other two were great
- 3:37:28though. I don't know how Joe Tori's name
- 3:37:30didn't get mentioned in that segment.
- 3:37:31What in God's name Goodyear muted goodies?
- 3:37:35Sure, that was awesome. Guys, I was a reason why I
- 3:37:40didn't go with Tori. So I look, I don't know if I
- 3:37:44would take Tori over Billy Martin.
- 3:37:45I think that's a good point. But goodie, you have your own
- 3:37:48criteria that you are completely up to.
- 3:37:50You're the absolute monarch king.
- 3:37:52Who's moving on to Jaws? I like speedies pics.
- 3:37:57I think he's picture. Great, you brought up, you
- 3:38:00brought up Joe McCarthy. Great pick, you brought up,
- 3:38:03Dusty Baker, obviously, Legend in this game and your last pick.
- 3:38:07Who was your last pick Anderson? Sparky Anderson.
- 3:38:10Yeah. All right.
- 3:38:12I like I like I like Speedy's picks.
- 3:38:16Um, Aaron. I like yours obviously.
- 3:38:19Terry Francona. You also went with another
- 3:38:22Yankee. Who was your other?
- 3:38:24You were Casey Stengel. Really good pics.
- 3:38:26There can't argue with that. And then you had another one who
- 3:38:29was your other one. Oh, yeah.
- 3:38:30Tito's time of the sort of the Dodgers solid.
- 3:38:34Arrow, who are your picks? Billy Martin was his last pick.
- 3:38:40Tony larussa and Bruce. Boo.
- 3:38:42Russo was his first boat. You can't aren't you there?
- 3:38:45And then he has the biggest head and you got the back.
- 3:38:49You had the best one with. I mean, Connie Mack and you were
- 3:38:51the last one. Connie Mack is probably the one
- 3:38:53of the greatest all-time managers.
- 3:38:56He did punt on the last one though.
- 3:38:58Yeah, cuz I'm about to pee on myself.
- 3:39:00All right, well, we'll get you a break but you saw it fixed.
- 3:39:05Bobby Thompson wearing Nails, his money too and Aaron.
- 3:39:08Hey, Bobby Cox was, was my what my daughter?
- 3:39:13All right, I'm gonna let you pick this one fish.
- 3:39:16All right, I'm gonna go with Errol only because you said Tito
- 3:39:22Francona, was the coat. This currently coaching
- 3:39:24Cleveland, he is coaching Cincinnati.
- 3:39:27And by the way, the reds are only a half game behind the Mets
- 3:39:30for the last playoff spot. So it's not like they're they
- 3:39:33they're it's not like, they're not gonna make the playoffs,
- 3:39:35it's close. It's no one's honest with you,
- 3:39:38completely forgot about that to me, the Reds, the only thing if
- 3:39:42I was asked, that's why I'm going with her, we got no, but I
- 3:39:45agree. I agree.
- 3:39:46That's cool. All right, Aaron pop out.
- 3:39:48Let's go to the jailhouse. Sorry.
- 3:39:51Can you can talk? I'm just the gesture here.
- 3:39:53No, I thought Aaron's picks for fantastic.
- 3:39:55I love it. I love this pics.
- 3:39:57I thought they were great. I actually didn't even catch
- 3:39:59that, but it was a tough between arrow and Aaron.
- 3:40:01I was probably leaning more towards Aaron.
- 3:40:04I didn't catch him say Cleveland but you know what?
- 3:40:06I know you like Arrow. So I you know, we'll let you
- 3:40:08pick is a we're we shared the well here, you know I'm saying?
- 3:40:12I got all right, the Jaws topic. Best Outfield arms.
- 3:40:18Oh, all time any position in the Outfield who had the best Canon,
- 3:40:26the best. Howitzer.
- 3:40:27The best time of man. Ski throws of all time goody.
- 3:40:34Who do you want to go first? Oh bro, let's hear Arrow.
- 3:40:39Let me see. What arrows got.
- 3:40:40I'm gonna go with Roberto Clemente.
- 3:40:44That's who I'm going with one of the greatest arms of all time.
- 3:40:48I had a gun everybody said probably had the best arm of all
- 3:40:52time when it came to outfielders, I'm gonna go over.
- 3:40:54Birdo comedy, I'm gonna go speed I'm gonna go with one that I
- 3:40:58couldn't stand because he was a Mech killer buddy.
- 3:41:00He had the best one I ever saw. That was Jeff, Frank core and
- 3:41:02headed for a very long time, too Frank with the Braves could
- 3:41:05throw it. A lot of times from like, right
- 3:41:06in front of the warning track and get him and get him out at
- 3:41:09home, get him out of second base.
- 3:41:10A lot of the time you went Texas, he was very strong for a
- 3:41:12while, even though he was injury problem player, so he's
- 3:41:14definitely the one best one I've ever seen.
- 3:41:16So I'm gonna go with him. Arrow Ichiro Suzuki, another gun
- 3:41:22of an arm Hall of Famer. People forget about how great of
- 3:41:26an arm he has. But everybody talks about what
- 3:41:29he did as a hitter. But this guy had a gun for an
- 3:41:31arm. So I'm gonna go Ichiro Suzuki.
- 3:41:35All right, the angle, watch the angle there.
- 3:41:40All right, so I'm gonna go with another guy.
- 3:41:41That was a legend in the American League West among other
- 3:41:43divisions for a while too. Vladimir Guerrero had a very
- 3:41:45strong arm as well. Definitely really laser accurate
- 3:41:49as well. In addition to the strength as
- 3:41:51well, and I think obviously with the injuries later, his career,
- 3:41:54couldn't play as much Outfield. But he still had a very strong
- 3:41:56arm even when he lost the range. All right, last picks Arrow.
- 3:42:00Well, there's two guys that really stand out to me.
- 3:42:02I can go with the Yankees. I can go with another but this
- 3:42:05guy has been the, the guy that people would probably not,
- 3:42:09remember it, because it was an awhile ago.
- 3:42:12I'm gonna go with dick reading. That's where I'm gonna go dick,
- 3:42:15reading with his arm. One of the greatest arms of all
- 3:42:18time, people forget about dick because write the name dick.
- 3:42:21Okay, I'm gonna go dick reading. I it was either him or Dave
- 3:42:25Winfield. So I I that's the way I would
- 3:42:28have gone but I what I'm reading is the what dick Reading had the
- 3:42:32kind of on the Dick Reading had is they compared his arm to
- 3:42:35Roberto Clemente and I'm reading a little bit about my
- 3:42:38grandfather. Talked about a guy you played in
- 3:42:39the 1 9 Intense. Yeah, they say he had the double
- 3:42:42day would be proud. Okay, really?
- 3:42:44Yeah. That's what they're saying.
- 3:42:45They're saying that he had his picture.
- 3:42:47Yeah, they say he has one of the greatest arms of all time.
- 3:42:50So, all right. Go darting picture, Dave wielder
- 3:42:52in center field. Yeah, I go to Dave, Winfield.
- 3:42:55I another gun. Any one of those guys dick
- 3:42:57reading, Dave Winfield. I'll go any right speed.
- 3:42:59Last pick. All right, I'll round it out
- 3:43:01with a guy that became a meaty, but started off as an Oakland
- 3:43:03Athletic and probably had the greatest throw to home I've ever
- 3:43:05seen. That's the unassessed with us at
- 3:43:07a Canon for a long time. When he was at the Young points
- 3:43:11of his career with the A's that he had thrown from Left Field to
- 3:43:14home plate like on the Fly, I never saw anything like it and I
- 3:43:17believe in each of those last two years and had a strong one
- 3:43:20with the Mets too. In the beginning of his career
- 3:43:22before he got all those injuries and then started dealing with
- 3:43:24all those borders you know this when Speedy talks about players
- 3:43:27he doesn't stop. He just go.
- 3:43:30Hey he was talking about cracking nuts and dick.
- 3:43:36Oh I don't know what you got going on.
- 3:43:39What's going on? The Verticals making you gay.
- 3:43:41I don't know. First people I wasn't cracking
- 3:43:43anything so Lost. I don't know how bojacks isn't
- 3:43:47the correct answer. That's what I'm saying.
- 3:43:49Oh, what about a Kunia? Did you not watch a Junior's
- 3:43:52throwing, right? Still out there?
- 3:43:56Literally was on a line. The entire two guys that really
- 3:43:58stuck out to me was Roberto Clemente in Ichiro Suzuki
- 3:44:02everybody else. And Dave Winfield was a guy that
- 3:44:04really stuck out to me as he Yankee.
- 3:44:06So I'm gonna go darker, they say how to can Aaron judge too, he's
- 3:44:10at a great Army and it could see Harper had it Was all right,
- 3:44:17Tori. Tori Hunter, Jesse barf I
- 3:44:19thought you were gonna say Jesse Barfield Darrell.
- 3:44:21Yeah, when you, when, you know, I I think I, I probably go
- 3:44:24Roberto Clemente each Rose, azuki, Dave Winfield.
- 3:44:27That's where I would go. Let's start.
- 3:44:29All right. Bring the boys back in.
- 3:44:31Let him pick. So, you're like, so this is like
- 3:44:34one of those Democratic monarchies like they got in.
- 3:44:37He's a tooth fairy. Yes, the wall that's true.
- 3:44:40Goody is the Tooth Fairy. So I guess why don't Jabba and
- 3:44:46Aaron? Why don't you just tell us who
- 3:44:49you take in real quick to move on to the left?
- 3:44:52I'm sorry, just go. What was the three guys?
- 3:44:55Frank core Vladimir Guerrero and you wanna arrows was Roberto
- 3:45:03Clemente each Heroes Suzuki. And Dave Winfield, I mean, I'm
- 3:45:09going to say first, I don't think it was close, I think
- 3:45:11arrows was a lot better. Well, each heroine.
- 3:45:13Roberto Clemente are the two best arms of all time.
- 3:45:15Frank or was really good. I agree with arrows.
- 3:45:19Each Rose, electric, but like each hero.
- 3:45:22Come on, eight Euros, electric obviously, Roberto Clemente was
- 3:45:26one of the best, one of the best.
- 3:45:28He had the best arm, Clemente might have been the best.
- 3:45:30The best moment they was commentator is rated as the best
- 3:45:34Outfield arm statistically, he was ever, he's at the top and
- 3:45:39then each hero is awesome. Yeah, and Java brought up Bo
- 3:45:42Jackson. Yeah, I didn't want to use Bo
- 3:45:44Jackson because I, I know, a lot of people probably would be.
- 3:45:47I wanted to go. I refer to come to each hero
- 3:45:50Suzuki brought. I mean, I like, I like dick
- 3:45:52reading. I just he was a pitcher.
- 3:45:54Yeah, he was well, no, he was, he was mostly an outfielder.
- 3:45:58He only pitched for a couple of Seasons, he was an outfield but
- 3:46:02he played from 1911 to 1936 and what they're saying about him is
- 3:46:07he he might have had a better armed than Roberto Clemente Jose
- 3:46:11again, he's another good one. Yeah.
- 3:46:13Or I was saying, yeah, I will say Arrow to go with your sister
- 3:46:18or your suspicious pick their speed.
- 3:46:21He used to throw up, Before every game.
- 3:46:23All right nerves. Know, he just would always throw
- 3:46:26up like there was, sometimes we didn't have a left field or
- 3:46:28Cassie was throwing up in the trash can always in the tunnel
- 3:46:31and he'd be smoking. A cowboy Killers Marvel, just
- 3:46:34what team? Did you play, right?
- 3:46:35You try. All right, let's try on to the
- 3:46:39final round, guys. It's gonna be it's gonna be
- 3:46:42Errol. And and the kid over here in the
- 3:46:48face off the rematch. Here it is final.
- 3:46:52Rounds of King of the Hill. Or are you boys ready to play?
- 3:46:55Here it is. That's not feeling take on the
- 3:46:58king. This one's a little tricky.
- 3:47:01The players who were the most famous During The Times They
- 3:47:07played. So I'm not saying who was the
- 3:47:11best. I'm saying, if we're talking
- 3:47:13about the 1950s, this guy was the guy of that era the 1960.
- 3:47:18He was the guy of that era. I want you to tell me who the
- 3:47:22dudes were of the era's. And good.
- 3:47:27You get to choose if you want to go first or get last legs.
- 3:47:31Oh, I'm gonna go first. All right, I gotta go, first.
- 3:47:35I got to go with The Sultan of Swat.
- 3:47:40The great bam being known, Babe Ruth.
- 3:47:44I think this was called the dead ball era.
- 3:47:47If I'm not mistaken. I don't know what I think.
- 3:47:51That's what is it? No, he's like the 20s or 30s or
- 3:47:54whatever. But I'm talking about Babe Ruth,
- 3:47:57he is the when you think of greatest baseball player of all
- 3:48:00time, you think of May proof he pitched.
- 3:48:02He did it all he's doing with now.
- 3:48:04People are comparing show. Hey, ohtani to the babe, the
- 3:48:08baby, the baby roof. There's movies made after him
- 3:48:11Sandlot. What are they trying to get
- 3:48:12after trying to get baby roofs balls?
- 3:48:14That's what I'm talking about. That's who I want the baby.
- 3:48:17The Colossus of clout. The Colossus of clout.
- 3:48:21The Titans. I'm gonna go.
- 3:48:26I'm gonna go into the barrier of bringing African American
- 3:48:31players in, and that would be Jackie Robinson.
- 3:48:33Jackie Robinson was the guy that broke the barrier for
- 3:48:36African-American black players and took it to a whole nother
- 3:48:40level. So I'm gonna go with Jackie
- 3:48:42Robinson. This is becoming a really cool
- 3:48:45list. Actually, King goody.
- 3:48:48Okay. All right, check it out.
- 3:48:49There's a lot of players in this era who were very, very famous.
- 3:48:53And I could go, I could go Yankees all day, but I'm gonna
- 3:48:58go with a Splendid Splinter the greatest hitter to ever live
- 3:49:02Teddy Williams. Not only was he the greatest
- 3:49:05hitter hit 400 but he also served in World War Two as a
- 3:49:09pilot, which is pretty dope. Came back and decided to
- 3:49:11continue to get that one. Of course, she had to add that
- 3:49:17one. You come back and still be a g
- 3:49:21on the baseball field after taking years off and come back
- 3:49:23and still get it done here, he's an American hero.
- 3:49:27I salute the Ted start, he's the best.
- 3:49:30He was the Red Sox so what I don't care.
- 3:49:32It was great and I loved it. Errol.
- 3:49:37I'm gonna go Willie. Mays, Willie Mays Annie,
- 3:49:40Outfield two-way player. One of the greatest defensive
- 3:49:42players of all time, we talked about great arms, but what he
- 3:49:44did in the Outfield and power hitters, he did everything.
- 3:49:47One of the greatest all-around playing.
- 3:49:49Barry Bonds is Godfather. I'm gonna go Willie.
- 3:49:53Mays not Haze, but Willie Mays, I'm gonna go All right, last
- 3:49:57picks, King goody. All right, I'm gonna go with a
- 3:50:00current player. Somebody who's current, who's
- 3:50:03not only just a superstar here in the States, but he's a global
- 3:50:07icon. He's been in any controversies
- 3:50:10as of late with the Hawaii deal, the game deal here, I'm talking
- 3:50:15about the gambling. Which will hit her.
- 3:50:20I'm talking about Japanese Superstar LA Dodger World Series
- 3:50:24Championship. As I said, we've never seen
- 3:50:33anything like this sentence. My first pick, the great can't
- 3:50:36bamboo the salt in the swap paper.
- 3:50:40Put a stand. I was a stamp on this one and
- 3:50:43I'm gonna, I'm gonna take you. I'm gonna take you out on this
- 3:50:45one. I'm gonna go with the guy that
- 3:50:47broke Babe, Ruth's record, the one and only Hank.
- 3:50:51Aaron that's why I'm going with renowned break it.
- 3:50:56He's the only one that really broke.
- 3:50:57Babe, Ruth's record what he did for the Braves and what he did
- 3:51:00for baseball at the time and the length of career that he had.
- 3:51:03He played what 27, 28 years, a professional baseball, the
- 3:51:08longevity and just special player.
- 3:51:10One of the greatest baseball players of all time, people
- 3:51:13forget about what Hank Did for baseball and taking baseball to
- 3:51:16higher Heights. So I'm going, Jackie Robinson
- 3:51:19Willie, Mays and Hank. Aaron.
- 3:51:21Yeah, I was 27 years because the only two years he wasn't in All
- 3:51:23Star, 25 All Stars. It was first and last year in
- 3:51:26baseball. Oh honey, take your own tiny and
- 3:51:30shove it where the sun doesn't shine, we got the Babe, Sir, Mr.
- 3:51:33Baseball, The Babe star, we have the American war hero.
- 3:51:38So if you go against that, you're on American, say yes,
- 3:51:41right. I just wanted to and then you
- 3:51:43are third guy, get out of here we go.
- 3:51:46Go! Hey Go Mobile Superstar, you
- 3:51:49pull the one-to-one car. That's what the patent.
- 3:51:53Goodbye million should have went somewhere else.
- 3:51:55You took that to the garbage. So other guys, I was expecting
- 3:52:00Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, I was expecting DiMaggio and
- 3:52:04mantle to be, I, I couldn't imagine anyone want to go that
- 3:52:07way. I wanted to go.
- 3:52:09I wanted to go oh and Derek Jeter.
- 3:52:13Oh yeah, I don't I don't know if I would have said, you know,
- 3:52:16exactly most famous Derek Jeter. Maybe you know it's that's why I
- 3:52:20was interesting thing. So I'm gonna go with King goody
- 3:52:23on this one and the reason for it is, hey, Karen got those
- 3:52:27stats over, 27 years, but he's one of those guys that he never
- 3:52:32had a 50 home run season. He was always one of the better.
- 3:52:36Players in the league, but was he?
- 3:52:37The most famous? He was until the last couple of
- 3:52:40years. He was going for the record.
- 3:52:41Okay. Was he though?
- 3:52:42I think he might have been like a top 10, the top 15 famous guy,
- 3:52:47most of his career. I don't think anyone ever said
- 3:52:50like the era of Hank, Aaron, you know, he was just this
- 3:52:54phenomenon that was really good for, like the longest time ever,
- 3:52:58you know what I mean? So, for that reason, that in the
- 3:53:01fact on yesterday's show we or last week's show, we learned
- 3:53:04that show. Hey, Otani has like nine times.
- 3:53:06The amount of followers is Aaron judge and if anyone better than
- 3:53:10ohtani, it's judge, but he's nine times more famous than him
- 3:53:13because he's a global Superstar. I can't global global, uh,
- 3:53:19obviously really close. I love the, Jackie Robinson,
- 3:53:22Willie Mae's picks, but I mean, it's Babe Ruth and it's Teddy
- 3:53:25ball game. So goody Aaron.
- 3:53:30I'm gonna have to go with, with goody.
- 3:53:33Oh, and this is the reason why it's, because I think it's
- 3:53:35really hard to come back anything with more than showing
- 3:53:39and Ruth you can. Obviously, you can, you can put
- 3:53:43your answers there, like, like, official same but when you going
- 3:53:46like that with, with Dave and show, it's hard to talk to them
- 3:53:51in my Speedy, I'm gonna go with arrow.
- 3:53:55I actually think the reason I think the 50s I think, Willie
- 3:53:57Mays, I think was a more popular player and mantle, I think would
- 3:54:00have been the other one. I think, then Ted Williams
- 3:54:01overall maybe Williams was a better like Talon wisely.
- 3:54:04Like you're saying goody war hero, but I think, popularity
- 3:54:06wise, I think it definitely was a rising obviously.
- 3:54:08Jackie Robinson breaking, the color barrier, I think it has to
- 3:54:10put that up there. I think, Babe Ruth obviously,
- 3:54:12the number one answer for anything, but I like Ariel's
- 3:54:15three answers after that. All right.
- 3:54:17Two to one job. Yeah.
- 3:54:19I Jackie Robinson's a no brand. Like Jackie Robinson and Babe.
- 3:54:23Ruth were like literally the one a and one a one like it's those
- 3:54:29ones. But yeah, I'm gonna have to go
- 3:54:31with goody and and the Otani part of it, I think.
- 3:54:37Willie obviously is, is one that, you know, the his catch
- 3:54:41his Infamous and what he did and consistently. but yeah, when you
- 3:54:46when you are Global and you do that and of your era and to do
- 3:54:50what he's doing and nobody else is, first of all, you Not tried
- 3:54:54it but then to succeed the way he has since Ruth and their
- 3:54:57numbers are very similar. Yeah that's true.
- 3:55:00I mean two to one really for me. All right, in that case.
- 3:55:04That means, Nick goody gets the keep his crown for another week
- 3:55:09of valiant effort, a close vote. Three to one Split Decision.
- 3:55:13Good. The Israel is there.
- 3:55:18A reason why we keep picking baseball every single week?
- 3:55:20I mean serious because it's baseball season.
- 3:55:23What else am I gonna use baseball?
- 3:55:25Pick something else. I mean, we're going.
- 3:55:27Oh, you guys, you guys made the King of the Hill, the one time
- 3:55:30baseball. And it was, it wasn't, but it
- 3:55:32was supposed to be full. And by the way, Hank Cameron was
- 3:55:35a very popular player in his era.
- 3:55:36I don't know what was he was. I would say Mickey Mantle seven.
- 3:55:43No, I'm not talking about, I'm talking about this, Sarah's
- 3:55:45drinking for 10 years was the best one of the top two players
- 3:55:51in baseball from the 70s. I don't know what you're talking
- 3:55:53about, you lost your mind, I would say, it's not about best
- 3:55:56players, most famous and you could tell me.
- 3:55:59Hey, Karen isn't famous, what are you stop?
- 3:56:04Stop. He's I don't think he was the
- 3:56:06black. He's the black player that broke
- 3:56:08Babe. Ruth's record that everybody
- 3:56:10thought was all until he got like 600.
- 3:56:13So first of all, look at first of all, You Arrow, you know,
- 3:56:17you're wrong, right? What because now the Negro
- 3:56:20Leagues are accredited and Hank. Aaron doesn't even hold.
- 3:56:23Josh Gibson's jockstrap and home runs Josh Gibson.
- 3:56:25Had over 800 that we're talking about the major leagues and and
- 3:56:29that's what it is. Considered the major league now.
- 3:56:31Well, in my opinion Hank, Aaron was as big.
- 3:56:34And as far as errors are concern was his big as anyone of the
- 3:56:37guys, he mentioned. So, I don't know what you're
- 3:56:40talking about. I mean, we're like splitting
- 3:56:42hairs. It was, it's like, the topic
- 3:56:44that's why I went first because I had to get Babe Ruth out of
- 3:56:47the way. All right.
- 3:56:48That was the smart building that.
- 3:56:49Honestly, that was the smart pick but even if you went that
- 3:56:52way, you're coming back with Jackie Robinson, either way.
- 3:56:55Like it's it was so wherever you went, it was going to be one of
- 3:56:58the other coming back. I was gonna go Sandy Koufax too.
- 3:57:00So I think Colfax we've been a good pick.
- 3:57:03Look, there's a lot of guys. Jackson was the most famous guy
- 3:57:07in the 70s like because of what he did with the A's before even
- 3:57:10getting to the Yankees. Well, when you say famous too,
- 3:57:13he was like one of the first got like there was I mean, you can
- 3:57:17look at like Joe D with Marilyn, Monroe.
- 3:57:18If we're just talking famous in the aspect of that.
- 3:57:21You know what I'm saying? That's what I was saying, you
- 3:57:23know? Like, but again, it's a silly
- 3:57:24list. It was, it was a fun one
- 3:57:26tonight, guys. Maybe next week, we go something
- 3:57:29else. That would be cool.
- 3:57:30I already promised because we want to get Zach on.
- 3:57:32That would be closed our interns last week.
- 3:57:34So we want to get all of them in on me.
- 3:57:37Thank God. That's it seems like it's an old
- 3:57:39baseball, he hated, the interns, I thought they did that.
- 3:57:44Now you're you're trying to flip it and and be an idiot.
- 3:57:46I what I'm saying is we've been picking baseball?
- 3:57:50Let's, let's move on. Let's move on.
- 3:57:55Let's move on from this baseball.
- 3:57:57I mean, come on every single week.
- 3:58:00It's baseball. Baseball season starts.
- 3:58:02We'll do football. Oh, really?
- 3:58:04It's that we're gonna do is that we're gonna do, Well, what we'll
- 3:58:07do is what when football starts? Well good evening?
- 3:58:10No, NASCAR, that's right, I probably know more about NASCAR
- 3:58:15than any one of these guys. This you told me you that's a
- 3:58:18bold face. Like I I'm a big deal Earnhardt
- 3:58:22fan. So if we go back in the past
- 3:58:24Dale Jarrett tell her you look like Jimmy Johnson.
- 3:58:28I followed I followed in those days, you know, 10 12 years ago
- 3:58:33I was into NASCAR I followed NASCAR.
- 3:58:36Okay. So are you talking senior or
- 3:58:38Junior for Dale Earnhardt? Senior?
- 3:58:40I was a big senior fan. I followed Intimidator, I
- 3:58:43followed her with Junior was garbage on the track.
- 3:58:46I I never said that he was good. He practically just used the
- 3:58:50name and and to me I watched him and tell Jerry for Daytona 500.
- 3:58:54It's all the all the Daytona 500.
- 3:58:56I enjoyed watching the whole race when him and tell Jared
- 3:59:00went head to head every single year and and that was fun and
- 3:59:03watching the growth of Jeff Gordon.
- 3:59:05And and then Jimmy Johnson and all the different guys that I've
- 3:59:09seen over the years, I actually liked race car, you know, and
- 3:59:13NASCAR and stuff like that. But now with what's Going on
- 3:59:16with NASCAR, I'm not interested, I have no interest in it, so
- 3:59:20that's pretty hot. Pretty reason why the reasons
- 3:59:23why I didn't want to bring up? NASCAR I have no interest in
- 3:59:25NASCAR anymore. And anyways, I want to apologize
- 3:59:27to all the fans in the beginning of the show with my vertigo
- 3:59:31situation that usually never happens.
- 3:59:32It's as an app on the show. He said really for 13 years it's
- 3:59:37never happened to me before I it got worse.
- 3:59:40Probably, two years ago there are days than others, that I get
- 3:59:44it, but I don't throw up like that.
- 3:59:46I have my face fucking excuse my language, turn purple.
- 3:59:49I went to the bathroom. I did what I had to do.
- 3:59:52I didn't even think I was gonna get through the show, so I want
- 3:59:54to apologize to the fans with that, but all in all we got
- 3:59:58through the show. I don't know how I did it, but

- 4:00:37cable situation, excuse me, the cable situation on Monday, but
- 4:00:41that won't happen next week. Thank God.
- 4:00:44There is hurricanes going on, Hurricane.
- 4:00:46Aaron is hitting hitting everything right now and and
- 4:00:50it's just absolutely demolishing everything that it hit.
- 4:00:53So hopefully all the families out there that are dealing with
- 4:00:56the situations with the hurricane.
- 4:00:58Hopefully, everybody's taking taking cover and taking care of
- 4:01:01their family. So that's a horrible story right
- 4:01:04now. That's going on right now here
- 4:01:05in the United States. So, hopefully all the families
- 4:01:08are being taken. Care of.
- 4:01:10Yeah. Do we have anything on Monday?
- 4:01:12Yes. Anything was able to get Lindsay
- 4:01:14Barra who's Yogi, Bear's granddaughter, and he's a board
- 4:01:18member, she's a board member on the Yogi, Bear Museum.
- 4:01:20Now did a lot of Yankees content in the past with ESPN and
- 4:01:24they'll be calm. And was it the executive
- 4:01:26producer as well of a documentary called it ain't over
- 4:01:29about Yogi Bear? I actually watched it, it's a
- 4:01:31great documentary of Yogi Berra and she was actually On it, it
- 4:01:35was Sensational anybody that hasn't checked it?
- 4:01:37It was in the movie theater. It was in the movie theater for
- 4:01:40like a couple of weeks but now you can get it.
- 4:01:42It was on Netflix. I think you can get it on
- 4:01:44Netflix right now, it's still on Netflix.
- 4:01:46If you haven't checked it out, it is a great documentary.
- 4:01:48The Tale of one man, that just absolutely dominated the
- 4:01:53catching position. Not only for the New York
- 4:01:55Yankees, but the MLB and baseball, he is really the face
- 4:01:59of the catching position. I don't care what anybody says,
- 4:02:02he was the all-around greatest catcher to ever play the game,
- 4:02:06Power wise, defense wise, and winning as far as I'm concerned.
- 4:02:09And in the story behind him on how he became a Yankees pretty
- 4:02:13unique. He wanted to always wanted to be
- 4:02:15a Saint Louis Cardinal and the Cardinals passed him up and then
- 4:02:19he winds up being pictures from Saint Louis.
- 4:02:21Yeah, and they Cardinals passed him up for I think the Carver
- 4:02:25and I don't know if it was somebody and he he signed with
- 4:02:30the New York Yankees and you know what happened after that.
- 4:02:33So any This country as he did and Yogi Berra, is a special
- 4:02:38part. I never met him.
- 4:02:39I know Jabba's met him. I'm sure Nick is Madame, I never
- 4:02:41got a chance to meet Yogi Berra. I met Mickey Mantle I did so
- 4:02:45that was a unique opportunity that I had.
- 4:02:48I also met Pete Rose. So two Hall of Famers to at the
- 4:02:52greatest players to ever play the game.
- 4:02:53I met Derek Jeter, and all those guys do it anyways.
- 4:02:55And Java played with him and so to Nick, so that's it.
- 4:02:57I know, Lindsay, I talked to her too.
- 4:03:00There's some cool things that she's gonna do.
- 4:03:03And we'll post it or whatever, but and we can cut this and put
- 4:03:06it up. But yeah, they're trying to
- 4:03:08break the record on September 21st for the most people to ever
- 4:03:11play catch. You have to play catch for five
- 4:03:13minutes simultaneously. They're doing it at the Museum.
- 4:03:15We'll have more information, but if you guys want to go and check
- 4:03:19it out and kind of what they're doing, it is Yogi's, big
- 4:03:22catch.org and it'll give you all the information.
- 4:03:25You can be a fan, come watch it. But yeah, really cool thing.
- 4:03:28And she'll explain some more to us on Monday, but it's a really
- 4:03:32cool thing. And she is so passionate and
- 4:03:33such a wonderful. Wonderful human being and and
- 4:03:36she's really cool. So, that'll be fun.
- 4:03:38Yeah, it sounds really cool. And again, if you're Yogi Bear
- 4:03:41fan and, you know, nothing about right?
- 4:03:44And your father used her, or your grandfather used to tell
- 4:03:46you about Yogi. Well, you get a chance to know a
- 4:03:49little bit more about his family and his background when Lindsay
- 4:03:52comes on and joins us on Monday. Okay, that's it.
- 4:03:55Ladies and gentlemen. Again, I hope everybody enjoyed
- 4:03:58the show and we'll be back next week.
- 4:03:59Good night, Sports Radio Network.
