  Speaker 1: That's his top story story? All right? Anyway, our top
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: story Caleb Williams. All reports say that he had a
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: terrible practice with the Bears. Yeah, and you know, Tony,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: we've been very critical of Caleb the nail polish, which
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: he did deserve. But the media these days, they just
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: get so carried away. You know all he did. He
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: had one bad day. That's it, right, Tony?
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't everyone.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Entitled to a bad day? I mean that that just
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: means that you're human. I mean, look at oj he
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: had a bad day. Should that have marred his whole
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: terrific playing career.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: That's a great point. You know a lot of people
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: they say, oh, well it was years, the trial and
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the suspicion and all that. No, that was all because
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: of one bad day.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and not.
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Even a bad day. It was less than a bad day, right,
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: it was just it was ten minutes. Yeah, look at
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: a guy. Here's another example. Look at John Lennon. Right,
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: John Lennon was shot in the head. Well, that was
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: one bad day.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going to throw away he's high a musical
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: career just because one bad day?
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: What about uh, you know NASA and the Challenger?
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: That was one bad day, one bad day?
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Right? Not?
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: You know? Yeah, you know what are we going to
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: throw away all space shuttles because of one bad one
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: that went wrong?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Exactly? It was not even again, not even a bad day.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: It was like two minutes bad two minutes.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: You know, you gotta have perspective here, Tony it's the
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: problem with me, don't perspective? Yeah, to move on one
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: bad day? Yeah, all right to the next story. You
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: know Lebron James' son, Bronnie James. You know you may
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: have heard of him. He sucks at basketball. You know,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: he says he's going to stay in the draft even
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: though he sucks. And you know people that are like, well,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: why is he doing this? You know he sucks in
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the well, you know, Tony I was thinking the other day,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: isn't this just more of a poor decision by Lebron,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: you know, to have a kid and try to teach
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: him basketball, because you know, if you have the kid, right,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: you got to teach the kid first, he got to
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: feed the The kid's gotta grow that it takes time. Yeah,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: all that stuff takes time. Waste the money all that.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Then finally then and you don't know if they're gonna
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: be good at basketball. Totally suck. But you know, if
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: sucks and he sucks. But ye know, if Lebron had
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: just done the simple thing up, you know, you clone yourself, well,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: then first of all, the clone grows. You know, you
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: got you got your instant clone right there, and then
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: you know, you know, he's gonna be well at least
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: okay at basketball. You know. But you know Lebron wasn't
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: thinking about this. He really should have thought this through.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Shouldn't be And it's not like we don't have the
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: cloning technology.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: You remember that movie with Michael Keaton, The Terrific One,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Mister Mom.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and he makes himself a mom, right, and he's
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: the mom and he's the dad. And then it's like,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: you know that the blonde woman's there that at first
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: what was the name, Lonnie Anderson's from Cincinnati. Yeah, she's there,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: and she's like, hey, why are you cloning yourself to
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: be the mom?
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Anyways? Like I can vacuum, I can do everything.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, this is what people don't understand about
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: the human reproductive process. Yeah, cloning people. No, see, if
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: you have that kid, well that kid, you don't know,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: it's probably gonna be a shittier version of everything you are. Yeah,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I mean just look at Luke Walton. You know, I
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: hate to say it this week, but you know exactly,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: you know, one of the rings Bill Walton, you know,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: great player, but I got to say, as part of
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: his legacy fathering was not exactly is you know again,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be controversial at don't no human being.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: But when it came to fathering basketball players, you know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: he cloning and it's not out it's we say, hey,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: you know you could still do it. Tony Bill Walton's
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: DNA is still sitting right there, still still somewhat acting.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Lebron, we all knew.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: We're like, oh, you know, seeing the kid like three
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: years old, like he's gonna spell, you can tell, you know,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: you knew right away, like, oh, look at him.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: He sucks.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Even though he has one of those like little like
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: pee wee Fisher Price basketball sets.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: He sucks, clearly.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: You know, Bron wasted his time, wasted everybody's time.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Should have just cloned himself.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Angel Hernandez. Let's move on here, right. Do you see
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: that the Angel Hernandez retired. Yeah? I swaw that, you know,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and I saw. I feel some people out there they
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: have this take that this is actually bad for baseball
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: because you know, he was such a terrible empire umpire, umpire, empire. Well,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: it was an empire. It was a rain, It was
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: an empire of.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Badnessyeah, it was. It was a reign of terror, a
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: lot of teams.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: So that's why that is not a mistake that was
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: on purpose.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: No.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: You know, I see people saying that this is good
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: for baseball because Angel Hernandez was such a shitty empire,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: and I got to agree with them, Tony. I mean,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: you know what makes the game. People think baseball is
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: all about hitting, no runs, fielding. No, it's about the controversy.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: It's about exact.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: You know, you go to the game, is this manager
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: gonna get thrown out?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: You know that your tension exactly?
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: You know, hey, this pitch has got a perfect game going.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Is the umpire gonna blow a call and blow the
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: perfect game? You know?
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: You know when you look at that one with the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Armando Galaaga whatever they you know, people say that was ruined.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I thought that was actually made it better.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: He made history.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Do we talk about other perfect games? No?
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I can't even name one off the top of my one.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: No name one that one we talk.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: About, because exactly it was an imperfect perfect game. Thatc's
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: what made it better and.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Now it's etched in our minds of history forever.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: And you have that umpire yep to think.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Exactly, you know, and then look at all the social
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: media accounts terrible umpires and all this. They have their
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: own accounts showing highlights. There's no account of great umpiing.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: Nobody cares.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: You know, great point, don't you know when you think
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: about it, maybe all umpires should be bad. Wouldn't that
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: be great? You know, like someone gets a hit and
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: then you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa Wait just the second
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: you don't know exactly it's fair.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Just make it fair, yeah, you know.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: And then even if it goes, if it's a foul ball,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: they call it a home run. That makes the game
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: more unpredictable and exciting. So true, yep, there you go,
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: Rob Manfred free Tony.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Is that people they want things to be streamlined, like
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: everything the go is planned. That's not what sports are about.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: No, you killing me.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Everyone knows that the unexpected. You know, a picture throws
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: a ninety eight mile per hour fastball, you know, straight
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: over the plate. You know, if that's a strike all
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: the time, Well, that's that's boring.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: It's boring. It's the same thing over and over.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: You know, why do people why does racing have such
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: a cult following for the crashes?
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: You know, exactly. I turned it on.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh my god, forty laps, How can anyone
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: watch this?
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Then it was like boom, oh, day we go.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: You know, I gotta admit something on it. It's very,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: very kind of embarrassing, but you know, we're honest with
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: our audience. Yeah, we got to keep it really at people.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I didn't know who Dale earn Hard was until he died.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: That same I'm like, you knows this guy?
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: I never heard of him once, never heard of him once.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Then I've done it on CNN and I see this
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: whole thing. I'm like, is this somebody I should know about?
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: And there you go, and again apologies. You know, I
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: guess he was had a big career, but I did
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: not know about him.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah exactly.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: I turned on you know, the Indy five hundred and
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: I said, oh, are you kidding me? I'm not wasting
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: my time. Then lap one boom, accident.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: I said, oh.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Okay, and I watched another lap before I turned it off.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that kept your glued exactly exactly. Otherwise I would
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: have just kept flipping.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: See that's what we need.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: More bad calls, more controversy, and more ratings.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: They you go talking about ratings. Did you see Jim
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Rome the other day on X He was on this
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: that X platform and he got like, you know, he
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: had millions of viewers.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm just thinking, this is so great that
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: this eel I'm musk guy is bringing back these sportscasters.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: That would be great.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: You know, you got Jim Rome back, well, you know,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: why not bring George Michael. George Michael sports.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Machine the best ever? You kidding me?
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Sunday nights and he had that big machine and he'd
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: be like, let's go out. Yeah, the Veteran Field bo.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: You turn on Twitter, it's it's Jim Rome, then George
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Michael sports Machine and then you have up close with
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Roy Firestone.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: That's how it off.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: And what about our favorite show growing up, The Reporters?
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: Oh right, that would be unbelievable. I never understood why
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: they got rid of that show.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: I love the Sports Report. I mean you'll remember there
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: was nothing better than you know, after a game seven,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: how like five days later you'd sit down and you
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: get to hear what they thought after they processed all
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: the thoughts. Oh, you know, do what I loved is like,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you know these shows, these days they have these big
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: sets and whatnot. That was so great. It was just
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: like they got or four chairs from like our rooms
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to go remember, and they just like put them as
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: close as possible. Oh, I mean it was gripping television,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: you know, I know, you know, I was always tuning
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: in every week, you know, to say what what column
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Mitch Album was working on for that week? You know,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: like I you know, is he gonna write about the
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Fadres this week? Is he gonna write about the salary cap?
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Exactly?
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: You know, I wonder what Mike Lupeka is gonna say
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: about the nineteen seventy eight Nicks that you know came
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: up short.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Anyway, Usually here we die, you know, grow to a guest,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: but I'll lose a producer didn't even bother the book one,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: although you know, we should probably thank him for that,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: you know exactly, probably should just thank him for not
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: being here. Made the show totally better.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: We don't have producer Jay interrupting us.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: He's probably sleeping with his fake girlfriend right now. Yeah, exactly,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: he's probably knee deep in AI right now.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with his hand.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Anyway, we'll reveal our contest win the next week. Call
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: that let's us wrap it in.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Yup, it might have been our most flawless show yet
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: because of no producer Jay exactly.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Well, that's the show for today.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: We'll see you, see you
