• 0:00
  Speaker 1: All right, and welcome inside One Leg Up alex Media.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: It's one of my favorite months. It's the month of March.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Let's celebrate with some Irish music. Welcome aboard to this
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: edition on One Leg Up alex Media. All Right, Well,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: one of my hockey connoisseurs who just loves the game
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: and talks about it with me frequently is lou Terminello
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: and Urmandello's take, I want to start here. I've got
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: two days in July and relations to trade Aatlana. Tell
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: you why that I'm looking to go to Chicago for
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: turns out learn today the Yankees are playing the White
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Sox and the Cubs back to back. I would love
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: to be there for that, and so I'm manifesting that
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: through One Leg Up alex Media. Let's get me out
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: to Chicago, maybe my sojourn since my dad passed, because
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: he was a big Cubs guy. And I'm like, what
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: a perfect way to honor him by going to those
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: two days. But you know it won't be there Nick Felino,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm I'm kind of sad because Fellino was the
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: captain of the Blackhawks. From what I can follow, he
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: was sort of a heart and soul of that team.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: But they say they did him in a solid by
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: training him to the Wild. Why is that just gonna
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: be him a better chance to win that you think?
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Or well, his brother, his brother plays on the Minnesota Wild,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: and I think he had kind of asked, you know,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: that would be nice. The Blackhawks are getting some kind
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: of lower level future considerations. I just saw Felina interviewed.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: He was very, very complimentary of the Blackhawks.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: Management for that.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: You know, the history. I'm sure they don't put they
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: don't put the sea on your jersey on everybody there,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: So sure, And as we said many times, the captain
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: c in hockey is different than any other sport. It
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: means something in hockey, it does.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Absolutely And so uh, that's where I want to begin.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: It is you know, Fellino was there for a lot,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: it felt like for a long time anyway, and now
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: he's traded. Now, my dad's team was a Blackhawks, So
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: it's kind of fitting when we start there. What are
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: they gonna do there? Because I want to see them
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: build around Connor. It just seems like maybe they're gonna
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: build take it apart them build around him? Is that
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: what we're seeing.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: No, they're not gonna take it part. Now, they're gonna
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: be They're gonna be in the draft lotter YAGUEA. And
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: you want to get into the top five or top seven.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: It's not like the NBA or the NFL. He gotta
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: be in that top you know, that top five, six
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: or seven to get an instant impact. Not saying you
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: can't draft a franchise player at twenty in the NHL draft,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: but no, the black Hawks are looking to continue to
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: build around around their core next year. I'm sure Connor
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: per Dog is going to want to be in the
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: playoffs after missing it his first you know, three years
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: of his career.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Amazing, three years gone by already, and this is it's crazy,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: but you know, and he had a he had an okay, sir,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I felt like he didn't start as healthy or as
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: match Shaeffer did his first season, but you know, it's
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: it's what it is. Both guys are stellar players though,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and and certainly in great draft picks.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, you talk about Matthew Shaffer.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: We talk about him almost every week on this show, Alex,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Matthew Shaeffer, He's totally transforming the Islanders at eighteen and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a half.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: He's gonna win the.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Call the Trophy. Uh, he should win it unanimously. I
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: believe he's a Norris Trope, legitimate Norris Trophy candidate as
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: best defenseman and Alex He's also should be he should
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: be getting MVP votes for the Hart Trophy. That's the
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: kind of impact this kid has had. So, I mean,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: the Islanders are I don't know if they're gonna make
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: the playoffs or not in these last twenty games. I
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: hope they do, but you know, it's it's missed there.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: So it's got has been unbelievable. I got some breaking
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: news is now looks like the Blues and Islanders are
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: coming closer to a trade for Shen and that would
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: be an incredible drake because Sheen was served the Heart
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: and soul. I mentioned that of the Blues when they
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: won a few years. I mean, it would be a
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: very interesting move if the Islanders got him.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Well, he's also the captain. He's he's also the captain
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: of the of the Saint Louis Blue Cell. He'll bring
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: leadership and he's another top six forward that that the
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: that the Islanders that the Islanders need. I mean, they
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: gotta score they got they gotta score, you know, And
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: their power play for the second straight year was thirty
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: one out of thirty two. Now I'm not great at math,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: but I know being thirty one out of thirty two
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: is not good.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Well, is that a wah situation? Or where is that?
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Where does that lie? I mean, I.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Don't know, Alex because their power play has been bad,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: even in the Barry Trotz days when they went to
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: the conference finals or to the final four two years
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: in a row. It's just been one of those things
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: that they can't get right. They've they've changed power play coaches,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: they changed power play technique players. It's really a frustrating thing.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: I mean last night they had a couple of power
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: plays they didn't get a shot off. Really not good.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Not good.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Stand I mean, we're the deadline shut? But where do
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: we stand overall? I mean, are all three teams pretty
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: much done? Is this not gonna be a playoff year
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: for any of our guys? And then try State? Or
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: where are we? What are we looking at?
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, well, the Islands obviously have the best shot.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: They're in a playoff spot right now. Columbus has been
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: on such a tear it's just amazing that you think
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: they're gonna slow down and they don't. So if anybody's
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: gonna catch the Islanders or the Penguins, I think it's
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: gonna be Columbus. They got Cornor Garland today from Vancouver,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: who was also talked about going to the Islanders.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: I'm a big Connor Garland fan.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: He's not a big guy, he's a like five nine
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: five ten, but he'll he'll get those dirty goals for you.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: He's not afraid. That was a good trade for Columbus.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: But the biggest surprise to me, and there's only been,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: like I said, six or seven trades so far, is
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: John Carlson. Yeah, going to the Ducks. Now we talk
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: about the golden goal. Well, in World Juniors for the
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: United States, John Carlson scored a golden goal in overtime
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: to win the World Juniors back about I don't know
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: about two thousand and eight, two thousand and seven, somewhere
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: in there. That that surprised me. Actually it surprised the
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Washington Capitals. I saw a Vechkin he said, this is
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: the saddest day of his career, losing John Carlson. Tom
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Wilson was very emotional. So that shows you the kind
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: of player not only is talent wise, but the kind
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: of teammate that he was. Losing guys like that, you know,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: that's tough.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: But let me tell you one thing.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Adding a guy like John Carlson is veteran leadership and
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: his veteran skills to a young, fast team like the
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Anaheim Ducks out they have so much talent. I mean,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: they're not there, no.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: And I think this is the best shot for Cryer
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: to get a Cup. I really do. I think this
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: is one of his years with this team.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: So yeah, well, if it's not this year, it'll be
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: next year. Getting Crider was very very good for the Ducks. Yes,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: and we're on the come up to begin with.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: I mean they've been they've been on the come up
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a little bit here.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: So oh, without without question, they really have a nice
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: young team.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: All right. Let me ask you this locally, though we
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: expected Trochuk to be dealt, that hasn't happened yet. Karrick
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: was Karrick was was. But when I hear things like
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: roster retooling is why they're sitting, it's like, don't don't
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: tell us, just tell us you're gonna trade the guys.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: You know at this point that that's trade code for trade,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: isn't it when there's a roster management and all that.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: So yeah, no, And I mean, let's fay, roster management
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: is the code for a guy on the trading block.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: There's still let's see what time as we're doing this,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: it's two nineteen. I assume in the next forty one
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: minutes at that he'll be traded. I don't know why
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: the Rangers wouldn't trade him to get something back. Let's
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: face it, he's a center who wins face offs. Even
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: in the gold medal game, we saw the importance of
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: faceoffs in overtime. We saw the inportant Trochick and bo
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Horvat faced off against each other and then left the ice,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: and then they put other players on because of the
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: I want to take advantage of the three on three.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: But Trochick was there and show you how important the
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: faceoff is. And you cannot tell me there isn't a
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: team that's going to be in the playoffs that cannot
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: use him. So I would have expected by three pm
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: he will be traded. And you know, I feel like
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: it completes the ball game. It completes the blow up
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: if you will, of this team. If he gets traded,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: that would be it. That would be the final.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean again, completing the blow up would be getting.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: But yeah, that would be getting rid of a banajad
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Or or Fox. And I heard something from Emily kaplan
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: and on Canadian TV while I was watching this morning
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: and we talked about this last week. Remember I asked you,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: what would you do about the range if the Rangers
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: were trades? The stirking in the offseason, and that the
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: net just the fact that the name is being bandied about.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Other teams have probably asked about the Sterkin. I wouldn't
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: have been surprised if Edmonton asked about I really that
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: that would not have surprised. And why is that's something
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: that could be revisited in the summertime. Why is he's
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: on the block because but the Panthers they're in Well,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: he's on the block because he's going to be a
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: free agent at the end of this year. The Panthers
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: have had a bad year obviously, going to the final
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: three years in a row, playing one hundred plus games
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: three years in a row, it catches up to you
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: if had major injuries. I don't think we're BOSSI doing
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: a trade. I think, uh, we're you know, we'll see
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: what happens in the next little while. We're forty minutes
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: and six seconds away from from the tree.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Well you know it's coming up, coming up the next
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks after we just had the men's and
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: women's I guess alebodied hockey teams. Whatever you want to say. Now,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the Paralympians playing sled hockey is very intense. I actually
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: played it once and I've damaged my finger on the ice.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I never went back on there, but I was about
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: seven or eight years old at the time. I might
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: try it an adulthood. I don't know. We'll have to see.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: But my point is is this is gonna be exciting.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Have you ever followed sled hockey? Well, yes I have,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: and actually before.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: You called me, I was watching the uh watching the
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: opening ceremonies.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I think, right now, this this Paralympics is finally being
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: I'll be watching them.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: I think this Paralympics is finally being marketed the way
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: they're supposed to. I mean this, I call them adaptive athletes.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: They deserve a shout out. They deserve all the praise,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: but you know, I want to get people an insight
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: is because I've been around it forever. They didn't do
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: it just to get the praise. They're freaking athletic guys.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, just because we might be missing a limb
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean we're any different. We are competitive as hell.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: No doubt about it. And I've seen a copulation of
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: some of your athletic feats, and I know that you're
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: athletic as hell.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: And we know. I say that I'm friends with Patrick Holgren,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: who will be skiing for the Paralympic USA team. I mean,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: guy gets in a motorcycle accident, but that didn't let
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: him stop his competitive spirit. He went and became a Paralympian.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love those kind of stories.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Oh me too, which it shows you the true, the
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: true human spear and how how tough these people are men.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: You know, the curling is very interesting. They have to
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: push it along with the little for the thing because
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: obviously when you're in the peril pelegic you can't reach
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: out on the ice. But the way they adapt these
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: sports is pretty neat.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: I have to say, Oh, I totally and I'll be
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: looking forward to it.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: But like I said, but yeah, as we speak, the opening.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: Ceremony in Milana is going on right now on USA Network,
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: and I guess Peacock.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Well, oh, go ahead, go ahead. I mean, I don't
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: have any more on the deadline, but I do want
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: to get to the other big story, which is Team
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: USA starting tonight World Baseball Classic. I know you don't
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: want to watch it, but come on, Lou, I would
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: love it if we follow it up with a gold
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: medal to win the World Baseball Classic.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: Maybe even as I.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Said in the past, of course I want to see
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: the United States when this World Baseball Class. But it's
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: let's face it, when there's a when when there's a
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: tournament that has a mercy rule like the World Basbok
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Classic has, and the mercy rule is invoked today when
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Japan be Chinese Taipei fifteenth to nothing at the end
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: of seven innings, you gotta and there's a pitch count,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: you gotta take it with a grain, a little bit
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: of a grain of soul.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: That that's what I'm saying.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Yes, and there's there's teams that really are they baseball countries, Czechia, Brazil,
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: that's all.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: I'm not trying to downplay.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Is more of a hockey town.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Okay, Czech of course, yeah, absolutely.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: So really I've never seen them play in the World
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Baseball Classic before. I don't know I.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Either, but apparently they are starting an amateur program, and
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: all the guys who are there, I think are just
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: are all amateurs, don't any level of professional baseball. But
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: you know, I'll but it's not on the level of
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: the of what we saw last a week ago Sunday.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: And you know, when they're in Judge, that's gonna be
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: my The trade is official. The Isles have received Braidon Sheen.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: So that's breaking news as we talk right now.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: So so that means Braidon Shen waved his no trade
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: clawse to come to the Islanders. By the way, his
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: brother got trade this morning, Luke Shen got traded from
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: the Winnipeg Jets to the to the Buffalo Sabers. By
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: the way, all those young players the Buffalo Sabers have
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: had over the years, they finally have meshed and since
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: December ninth, they have the best record in the National
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Hockey League and they're gonna break that.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: They're gonna break that.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Playoff and leave the New York Jets as the longest
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: pro sports.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Team America with a playoff drought.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: You know what, we haven't had you since we won
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: the gold medal, that's right. So let me ask you
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: about your reaction to all these guys going to the
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: different arenas. You know, the Austin Matthews, Jack Hughes the
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: other night. Then you had Jack Hughes make that incredible
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: speech in Newark a couple of weeks ago. I mean,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: as an American and as a hockey guy, how to
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: make you feel a little emotional, not just the game itself,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: but then to watch all the aftermath of them coming
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: back to these arenas.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I mean it was it was all. It
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: was well done by all of the all of the teams.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: The Devils had a nice ceremony. And I like the
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: fact that you know, Jack Hughes also without Tate Thompson
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: knowing called him, called them off the bench to join
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: them on the ice at before Jack you spoke, and
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I thought that was that was a good teammate move
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: by by Hey, he's a great kid. MHM said all
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: the right things. Then the other night, the United States
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: also had the UH when they played Toronto, they had
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: members of the women's team, Megan Keller, Frank Gold the goalie,
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: and uh, and there was another player there and I
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: can't remember her name, but you know he did the
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: face off between Megan Keller Matthews and I think you
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: had Uh, it was three of them.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: It was it was Keller. I can't remember who the
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: third one is. And I was watching it live, so
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: I apologize well.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: And then I mentioned that because up in Buffalo, you know,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Tage Thompson and Jack Ico. That was pretty cool moment.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just fun to watch all that unity
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: and all the arenas across the country. And as you
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: called it, Lou, when Austin Matthews was given his flowers
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: in Toronto, they booed him pretty loudly. And some say
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: that could be worthy of a trade. You're gonna let
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: the guys representatives of a country, uh say he should
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: be traded like that's nonsense to me, Lou.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: That's nonsense on correct uh And uh.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: You know, we we texted each other last night night
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: about the three.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Teams in the Eastern Conference that.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Have been big disappointments, the Rangers, the Devils and the
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Toronto Maple Leafs. And I wouldn't be surprised if Austin
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Matthews gets traded at the end of the year. I'm
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: tuned into a lot of Toronto media. They're not warming
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: up to the guy anymore. They think that he's that
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: he got old, even though he's only twenty eight. He
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: got old quickly.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: I would not be surprised if he's traded in the offseason.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: As matter of fact, they.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Lost the Rangers last night. That's all you need to know, really,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, and I saw.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: The score was too too and then I didn't see
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: the third period last night, and then I saw they
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: lost six to two, and I know the last goal
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: wasn't empty. And that by the way, I don't know
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: why coaches pull their goalie when they're down two three goals.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: I don't get that, you know, late in the game.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: But uh, that's just me.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, my my favorite thing is when they
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: now pull him with five minutes left in the game.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: I don't understand that either, But that's on the Sorry
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: for another thing. It's the point like, you can't let
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: what he did for a team USA affect him as
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: your player. But you know what if I'm Aston Matthews,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: I'll like you have that attitude. I want out anyway,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Like I want to be out of that country, that city.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'd want to be out of there. I
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: really know.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: I agree, I totally agree with you. And that may happen.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: They may they may sit down and talk to him
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: and say hey, we're going into a rebuild and they
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: may talk to him. They might talk to William Kneelander
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: uh to say hey, if we can move you, what
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: do you think? And I think Austin Matthews probably would
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: say yes, I think And we know the teams that will.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: Be in on it, you know, Uh.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: It'll be the Rangers and the Flyers and the Islanders
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: and the Devils and the black Hawks. You know, we
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: know the teams that that that'll be in on or
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Boston Matthews.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: So so see. But yeah, it wasn't great the way
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: they treated.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Him, Oh no, horribly. And then of course Clutterbuck, although
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Clutterbuck Hullabuck didn't really get that much negativity up in
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Winnipeg that I noticed. I mean, I feel like he
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: was whatever.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Now, No, you're you're right, because the Winnipeg market and
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Western Canada is different than Eastern Canada.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: Different, So.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: There you go, all right, I'm back, yeh. I mean
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: it just it's it's different markets too. There's that as well.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: But I just think Austin Matthews deserves way better, not
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: just because of waiting FORTINUSA, but just in general. He
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: deserves way better. He really does.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: He scored sixty goals for the Yeah sixty golf season
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: two years ago.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: For the Maple League, He's already broken the career scoring
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: record for goals. I don't know what they want from this.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Guy, all right? Uh so we got we got that
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: out of the way, and now we're at the trade
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: of the line. We've got that breaking news story. What
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: else is on your mind? Louis? I mean, I feel
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: like it's right now not as big of a lively
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: sports season the Knicks. The Knicks are on right now.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: They've seem to win one night to lose. I don't
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: know where they're going to right now. But look, it's
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: it's a little frustrating because again, all the pump and
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: circumstances done with the hockey, we go back to depressing hockey.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: It feels like, so how do we get our mood better?
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: I guess Saint John's is really the guiding light right now.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: Right, we got to see where Saint John's ends up.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Will kind of see they get on selection Sunday. As
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: far as the Knicks go, I mean, I don't think
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: based on how the NBA is nowadays. And this is
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: just my observation, I don't think you could pinpoint like
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: we like say, in hockey, Colorado is going to be
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: the favorite in hockey going in, and you could say
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma State is gonna be the favorite in basketball.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: But in basketball we'll just say, we'll just say the
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Eastern Conference.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know, man, you just it's I don't know
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: if you can get a handle on on what's going
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: to happen in the playoffs based on what's happened in
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: the regular season.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: I don't think that that is so so we'll see.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: I don't think anything the regular season carries over to
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: the playoffs.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Well, well you mean for the Knicks, Well, look, but
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: I think.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: The Nicks have a great chance to get to the finals.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: I do. I know, but you got to overcome Detroit.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I know they're going to be right up there with them.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: So it's just the one thing I'll say Detroit two
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: years ago they won fourteen games?
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Are they when when they played?
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: I remember they didn't even win a playoff series last year,
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: So how are they going to go from two years
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: ago being fourteen and sixty eight? They won forty four
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: last year? Are they going to get to the NBA finals?
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Just me if it was Detroit against the Knicks in
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: a playoff series, I'm still favoring the Knicks.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: By the way, Ryan's also recording his podcast We Do
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Our Simon Fantasy in the studio over so, I mean,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: we're all recording about this trade deadline.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, wins now?
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: How is now? Which now features a Rangers trade. Pulio
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: has been traded.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: So yeah, so that's what I think is going to
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: happen in the NBA.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: As the Rangers trade Pulio now to Chicago. So they
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: didn't make a move right now. And it's now about
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: twenty five minutes before three o'clock, so we'll have to see.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: But Lou, I mean, you're right, we haven't seen them
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: battle tested. Kate actually was his first year last year,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: you know, in the playoffs, and.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, being on that level, being on the on that
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: big time NBA level. No, you're correct, So I don't
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: think anything that we see in a regular season translates
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: to what we've going to see in the playoffs.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: That's just nick Fans will say they missed Tibodeau. But
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: I like the fact that he gives other guys a chance,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: like I like the Shamans of the world, and the
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Coles are getting more playing time. It might make for
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: a better postseason. A lot of these guys get injured
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: every time around the second round of the playoffs because
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: it turned out from the first eighty two games, I mean,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: that's what it is.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Well, did you see what's happening tonight? Uh? Jason Tatum
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Y's back later.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: Which is surprising to me.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Let's see how effective he is before we say anything
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: about how he's going to affect the Celtics.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: But boy, he worked that doctor O'Malley, who I think.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Operated on at the hospital special surgery, the heck of
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: a job putting him back together so quickly.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, you were in the NBA during those
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: NBA NBC years. I mean you watched the retro from
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: the other night. How exciting was that to see them
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: try and throw it back a little bit with Bob
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Costas and all that. Did it bring you back to
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: those days or was it very very modern?
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Well, unfortunately, the game was horrendous. The Spurs one by
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: forty five, they were winning. The game was over in
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: a second in the second quarter. Philadelphia arrested some guys,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: which is which is terrible. But as far as having
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Costas and and Doug Collins and Fortello and Hannah Storm, yeah,
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: that's great in those old graphics. And again that was
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: to me the nineties and the early two thousands and
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: the mid two thousands, that was the golden era, the
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: end of the golden era.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Of the NBA. So that's just me.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Well on those days, well, look and those are the
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: MJ days. And now who thought MJ would be finding
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: a championship team in race? And Nasca's right.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's just shows you how great a competitor
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: he is and anything he did striving for excellence.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: And look, I love that Last Dance series, but it
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: painted him as such an arrogant guy. I never realized
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: he was that arrogant until, like.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: He's when you're a great competitor, you're gonna have to
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: have a little bit.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna still one of your words. You can't be
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: milk toast. I win the championship.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: All right, one last riff for you before we sign
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: off until the deadline to come down. We'll see, but
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: one more riffs. What if they released Gino so that
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Tom Brady come out of retirement and be the mentor
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: for Fernando Mendos.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: Well, I have a feeling that Brady will be the
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: mentor for U for Fernando Mendoza, he's not coming out
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: of retirement. I think he's having too good a life
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: hob nobbing around the world, going to the to the
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: Olympics and other big events and trying to rebuild the Raiders.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: But somebody's gonna pick up Geno. I mean, a guy
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: can play, it's not like the guy can't play. And
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: we know how short the quarterback depth is in the
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: NFL right now. So I wish, I wish there was
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: a reason why the Raiders wouldn't pick Mendoz and let
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: him fall to the Jets at number two, But unfortunately
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: that's not going to happen.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: So get a two year deal with New England, which
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: is interesting because either he's going to be moved up
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: or he's going to be a very rich backup. I
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: hate to say that way, but it's very interesting to
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: give him a two year deal. What do you think
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: the move is behind that?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Well, again, the best quarter the best drop to have
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: is to be the second or third street quarterback in
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: the NFL. Chase Daniel, who is now retired and he's
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: does a podcast and he's into broadcasting at the University Missouri,
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: played for a lot of NFL teams as a backup
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: some ridiculous amount of money and played it just a
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: handful of games over ten eleven year career.
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: Best job you can have. First of all, you learn
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: about the game. And for a guy like.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: The Veto, if he doesn't get into another NFL regular
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: season game, he's picking up point just to be an
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: offensive coordinator, a quarterback coach, you know.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: And but I think he's got a lot of chops.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I think he's got a lot of chops to him.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: I really do.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I think he can be Oh.
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: I agree, he has a lot of chops, no question.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: And he's learned. I mean he's a backup to a rookie,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: which is so interesting because you know, I still consider
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Drake not not seasoned at all. He's still a rookie,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: you know, but he's actually he's still learning.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: He's still in a learning process, no question.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: That was just interesting. But hey, maybe they have some
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: plans for him to continue to mentor Drake. I don't
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: know exactly, but we'll have to see. All right, about
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: twenty minutes to the end of the trade deadline, I
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: don't know. I thought I was expecting a flurry. I'm
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: more of a flurry of things like I just.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Didn't seem as surprise too. The record for most trades,
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: it's thirty two. Was done a couple of times in
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: the last four or five years. Usually it's around twenty,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: but this year, like, well, I don't even think we've
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: hit ten yet. The biggest trade, Alex the trade deadline
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: happened two months ago.
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: Quinn.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: You was going from Vancouver to Minnesota, and Minnesota got
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: you know, they got a whole back, they got a
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: number one pick, they got Zev buying him back, they
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: got Marco Rossi back, and they got another young player back.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: And I can't remember his name, but that was the
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: biggest trade. And that happened on December twelfth.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: By the way, Ryan updated after daming because I told
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: him on podcast with you. He said it's a first
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: rounder of the Islanders gave up. So that's very interesting
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: that they would give him a first rounder for him.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Okay, I wonder if it's theirs or if it's Colorado's
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: because remember they have Colorado's pick this year, which is
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: going to be near thirty.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: So and last, we all know Quinn wants to be
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: a Devil. He wants to be with his brothers. I
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: don't know that will ever happen.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: But well, I wonder.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: I was wondering if their Olympic experience, Quinn winning the
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: quarterfinal game with the overtime goal, Jack winning the gold
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: medal with the overtime goal in the in the final,
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: I wonder if that brought them even closer. This Olympic experience,
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: I would again he has next year. Billy Gren' is
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: a really good general manager. I think he's gonna try
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: to keep him, gonna try to sign him, you know,
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: so we'll you know, we'll see. I would love to
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: see him with the Devils, I mean I really would.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised the Devils haven't made a trade today. I'm surprised,
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: but I don't know what's gonna happen there I don't
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: know if the coach is gonna get fired, Sheldon Keith,
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know if Tommy Fitzgerald's gonna get released as
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: general manager. But that's a team that had after starting
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: eight and one has failed miserably.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: The way to say, they have a lot of talent
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: on that team too, but absolutely.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: A ton of talents in their prime years, not old
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: in their prime years.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: So this very very very disappointing year for the New
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: Jersey Devils. I have to think that Jackie scored that
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: golden goal.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: I keep thinking yeah, and I keep think him back
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: to the trade headline from a few years ago when
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: the Rangers out right missed out on Jake gunsl Like,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I really thought he would be a great addition here
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: and just dury to not pull the trigger, and then
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden he trades everybody. It's like if
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Dolan didn't see the ineptitude, then I I don't know
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: what it'll take, But you make a good point. I
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: think that he knows how to put the puck in
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: the net. He's not afraid he'll get you know, he'll
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: get into that those dirty areas in front of that.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: I'm a big Jake Gunseill fan and he's also uh,
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: you know, a.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Gold medalist, so you know, yeah that that is that right.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: That trade that that was a big miss for the Rangers.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: But you know, we're all trudged a law here in
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: New York, it feels like with the hockey scene. So
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: love to see. But I was going to say the
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: other thing about all this, especially around these headlines, is
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: doesn't bring the question all these contracts, at least the
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Rangers that I could think of it. I mean, the
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Islanders sounder guy for eight years, has he lived up
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: with expectations? Ability to start asking these questions, hey, has
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: laughy lived up to his eight year expectation? He has not.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: In fact, then they got in that contract extension. He
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: was crap, he was not. No, I don't understand it.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: You're right, and it's going to be Fox.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Been dealing Fox have been dealing with injury. I understand
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: that that that's part of why his seven year deal.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: You haven't seen him in his full potential. So I
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: don't know. But after asking these questions, when you see
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: the deadline come around and see them keep them guys,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: and then I forgot the eight year guy. I think
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: it was a defensiveman that you guys signed for eight years,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: wasn't it The Islanders.
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a roman Off and he got hurt early on
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: for the you know in Dallas when he took that
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: shot from from Rantin and h.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: Islands miss him.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: He's their best, stay at home, hard hitting defenseman. And
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: but he'll be back next year.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: And I feel, like I said in Baseball man, like
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: I feel like baseball where a guy he signs all
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: these extensions and then uh, he gets injured. I mean,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Trout's famous unfortunately famously got locked into that ten year
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: deal with the Angels. And that's still you talk about
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: free agent signings of any of anybody, that's the one
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: that hurts the most to see and athlete get locked
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: down like that, and then I want to move him.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: It's almost like torture. I hate to say it that way,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: you know, but it feels like that.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: And he will not talk bad about Moreno or the
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Angels organization. He I mean, I was watching reading yesterday.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: He will not talk bad about the organization.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: And by the way, pretty damn good. He came back
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: and hit four hundred last year, I think so. I mean,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: he's still got a pop to him.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he does, but he actually had his worst statistical
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: year since his half year rookie year when he brought
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: him up at the end of the season. It's a shame,
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: great great player. I mean, he won three MVPs early on.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: He probably could have won five.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: And uh, it's a shame, it really is. And he
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: started going to be thirty.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Five and they had that you're talking about that team.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: I remember, and I feel like an old guy in
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: the rocking chair right now, but I remember when it
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: was him and Otani and there was another guy there,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: and you thought they were gonna win with those guys.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: And it just one last thing, you know, you're hear
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: that that the Hani's people, his agents, brought the Dodger
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: deal back to the Angels with the deferred money, the
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: exact same deal, and Audi Moreno said no. If that's true,
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: that is why one of the worst decisions Audi Moreno
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: could have possibly made. If he came back to the
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Angels one last time, and if that's accurate that story
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: and he prevented and he presented the Angels with that
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: deal and the Angels didn't take it.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: That is nuts.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: I would have to sell the team sign right outside
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: the front gate, you know.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: But you know, yeah, no, it's crazy.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: And look at what they did in the meantime. They
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: put all their energy into Rendona said, oh, I don't
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: really like baseball. I you know, I just didn't.
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, how is that? You know? I mean, you know,
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: I really don't like baseball. It's crazy, these guys.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Are that's the guy they wanted to bank. Gut is
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: their big agent, siding it was weird.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Well, he got lucky.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: He had a big postseason when the NAT's one Randon
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: and he cashed in. And then he finds out, you
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: know what, I really don't want to play baseball anymore.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: I really don't like baseball. I don't get it.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: All right, little well, as I see Russia's providing intelligence
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: to Iran, thank god they're nowhere near the Olympics or
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: the Paralympics, I could stay out of it for as
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: long as he as they I see the deems acceptable.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: I'll end that with that note today.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: It's a good way to end up, Alex. Thank you
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: so much. Always a pleasure being with you.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: All right. That was Luterminello when Terminaldo's take on one
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: leg up Alex Media
