• 2:04
  Speaker 2: The baseball scene here the dog Days the baseball season,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: the month of August and that period after the All
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Star Game, and the dog Days typically end around September first, right,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: that's the home stretch for the playoffs and positioning.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Try to get yourself ready for October.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Baseball and the two New York baseball teams both have
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: something in common. One of them sucks, the other one blows.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: So that's New York baseball right now. The Mets are
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: just awesomely bad, just awesomely bad. The team that I
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: want to talk with you about, though, is not the Mets.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: It's the New York Yankees, who played like the Bad
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: News Bears in the World Series last year. When the
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: great Bonehead plays by Aaron Judge in centerfield, then Garrett
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Cole failing to cover first base, and that fifth inning
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: meltdown against the Dodgers and the World Series one of
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: the great eightings I've ever watched as a baseball fan. Well,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: the Yankees got off to a pretty good start this year,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: but you have to play the whole season and things
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: are not going well. So are lead This hour is
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: from the Bronx Zoo, where the Yankees' patrons are not
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: handling the downfall of the Marty New York Yankees. They
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: were not impressed with a seven to one loss to
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: the cheating a one one thousand and two one thousand
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: holes on Sunday. Now, if you didn't see the reaction,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: maybe you missed it.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: What you were doing.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: It's summer, you're out and joining life, living your life.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: So the natives are restless in the Bronx, they're not happy.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Fans were spotted wearing paper bags over their heads, calling
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: out Yankee manager Aaron Boone, who loves to coddle his
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Yankee players. He coddled them like little babies.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Now this was during the loss.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Now New York has now lost seven of their Last night,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I didn't play in the major leagues. I think that's
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: bad being too critical. I think that's about seven of nine.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: They currently sit at number three, number three, number three
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: in the American League East standings, and they are six
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: and a half games.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Behind all cana.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: The Toronto Blue Jays, who beat the Dodgers on Sunday
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: to avoid the sweep, and their overall record. The Yankees
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: find themselves at just six games over five hundred, and
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: they led the division at the beginning of July. The
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Bronx Bombers have a mere half game lead, just a
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: half game lead over a team named after a bridge,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: a team named after a bleeping bridge, the Cleveland baseball
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: team for the final American League wild card spot. So
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: let us discuss the question for the esteem panel. Our
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Yankees manager Aaron Boone, JM. Brian Cashman finally on the
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: hot seat. Are they finally feeling the heat in the Bronx.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: So I've got Madagascar, bubble wrap, and astrology chart, and
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: we will combine all of these things together. We're gonna
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: make a dirty water Dog because the Yankees have been
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: playing like.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, dirty water dogs is what they've been playing like.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: So my first thought here, hot seat you're talking about,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: how what's a hot seat?
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, And I'm gonna win power Ball on Tuesday.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: I don't even play power Ball on Tuesday, but I'm
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: gonna win, just like Aaron Boone and Brian Cashman are
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: on the hot seat. Now, I would have fired both
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: these guys years ago, both of them. I got no
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: skin in the game when it comes to the Yankees,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: but I would have gotten into both these guys.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Brian Cashman has been there since nineteen ninety eight.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: The yank Kees haven't consistently been good in about fifteen years,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: at least at least fifteen years, but he's been there
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: twenty seven years, kept the job. But I've been at
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio for a long time. My entire time here,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Brian Cashman has been the GM of the Ages. Now
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Boone is going on his eighth year. This is his
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: eight season as manager of the New York Yankees. Wild
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: these guys are about as safe at this point as
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: the pope. Now you know how you no longer are
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: the pope. That's the way you lose the pope job.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: And well, these guys are saying the reason after a
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: minutes long Mallard deliberation that I don't buy the noise
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: about Aaron Boom being on the hot seat in Brian Cashman.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Hal Steinbrenner is not hardwired to give a rats ass.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: He just doesn't care. He does not care. If he cared,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: he would have made changes years ago. I see no evidence,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: no evidence that changes are coming. He's just not the
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: old man. He's not George.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: He's how And in this case, the apple does fall far.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: From the mansion and the tree in the backyard of
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: the mansion. Hal Steinbrenner is the He's the quiet caretaker.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: That's what he is, right, He's the quiet Caretaker's old
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: family money. We always talk about this. It's the Great Gatsby.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: You've got old family money and new family money. When
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: it's new money, you go for it. You're motivated, you're passionate.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: New money.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Old money, lazy, lazy, trust fund baby money, trust fund
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: baby money.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: That's the Yankees, right.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: He's more interested in profit margins with the Yankees than Penance.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: And it's an idiot proof business. When you own the
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: New York Yankees, it just is. And the fans wearing
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: the paper bag on the head, well, it makes for
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: a good vibe photo on the socials and it's kind
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: of cute and all that. There is something that is
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: much more, much more powerful, and that would be an
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: empty Yankee stadium on a Sunday afternoon. That is apathy
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: with a capital A. Apathy with a capital A is
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: what that is.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Right. The paper bag is a sign. It's a sign
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: that you're engaged, that you still care.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: And having been around professional sports for a long time
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: and talk to executives over the years, every one of
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: them that have had this conversation with and there have
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: been more than a handful, have told me the same thing.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: They say they don't care about people calling up radio
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: shows and planning, they don't care about mean social media posts.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: They don't care about the paperbags because they got you
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: by the balls. They got you by the balls because
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: you still care. And the Yankee fans are engaged even
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: though they're angry, and the Yankees are aware that these
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: dopes will still show up tomorrow and the next day
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: and the day after that, and the Wall Street guys
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: that buy the Yankee tickets will fill the luxury boxes
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: and those seats behind home plate and they'll drink the
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: twenty dollars Martiniz and they'll talk about hedge funds.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: And all that other crap while.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: The Yankees lose. To fill in the blank, whatever team
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: they're playing, it's the brand. It's idiot proof.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: They are.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, they are the mighty New York Yankees,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: and anyone can do it. People pay for the pinstripes,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: they pay for the tradition. They don't pay for the standings.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: They don't. Hal Steinbrenner, he knows this. He didn't do
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: anything to make the Yankees successful. He just happened to
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: inherit the ownership. It's the family business. And he can say, well,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: George Steinbrenner didn't do anything to make the Yankees. Well,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: I would argue he did, George Steinbrenner. Not like they
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: won a bunch, but the Yankees they had not won.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: The Yankees had a stretch in the eighties where they
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: went a good amount of time in the early nineties
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: where it was not a domination situation by any means.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Yet they still move the needle, the Yankees and Housetin Brenner,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: the current owner, he knows he doesn't need to blow
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: the thing up. And because the printing press is still there.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: He's got the money coming in. And Aaron Boone's not
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: even a real manager. Aaron Boone's a sock puppet. He
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: lacks the fire in his belly. And all the old
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Yankees all agree that he just coddles the modern player
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: and he's just a mister softy.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Aaron Boone.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: He massages them, he tickles their tummy, and he gives
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: them a shoulder rub, and he rubs their toes. That's
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Aaron Boone. That's Aaron Boone, his Yankee manager, all right,
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: that's his public persona. And all these guys who are
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: trying to cover for Aaron Bon's o, well, privately, he's
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: he's a hard ass. He's a you know, chap ass.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Does anyone believe that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I'm sure there are some dumb people that believe that.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: I don't believe that Aaron Boone is a mouthpiece. He's
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: a middle manager. He's a mouthpiece for Brian Cashman. And
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: as Goose Gossage said, the army of nerds that follow
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Cashman around, and the spreadsheet nerds and the analytical and
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: the scouting, all those guys, if they tell I am convinced,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: let me tell you how much of a puppet, Aaron
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Boone is if Brian Cashman saw some somewhere on the on.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: The dark web that value added.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: The Yankees would be better off if their left fielder
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: was a Madagascar hissing cockroach. Cashman would call down to
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: the manager's office and Yankee Stadium say hey, Aaron Boone,
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: We're gonna we gotta put this Madagascar hissing cockroach in field.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Aaron Boone would say, yes, sir.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: He'd hang up the phone, and he changed the Yankee
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: lineup and by first pitch the left fielder and leadoff
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: hitter for your New York Yankees the Madagascar hissing cockroach.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Nothing is going to change, not fans with paper bags
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: on their head. I just I will believe it when
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: it happens, because I don't believe it. I've sat here
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: just like Mike Tomlin. He's fired, Mike Thomas fired, Brian Cashman.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Nothing changes, nothing changes. And the reason why again to
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: double down. These are not your daddy's Yankees.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: And the sooner the.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: Fans figure that out, the better. Now they're not firing
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: anyone until the TV ratings and the attendants plummet free
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: fall in free fall spoiler alert. If you look at
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: the attendants, the Dodgers are number one, you know who.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Second the Yankees. The Yankees are, that's right, and the
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: TV ratings are strong. So status quo, all right. Now.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Secondly, staying in the Bronx over the weekend and amusing moments,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: several of you said, did you see this, sir, aren't
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: you the age of Marion A?
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Very thank you? Yes, I'm now old.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: So over the weekend, Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera, the Sandman,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: Marion Rivera tore his achilles. He was chasing a fly
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: ball at Yankees Old Timers Day. And now, of course,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: as expected, people are freaking out. The over reaction crowd. Well,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: they've got to end this Old Timers Day. They've got
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: to shut the thing down. It's just not safe. You
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: can't have these guys getting heard out there, the old
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: timers at Yankee Stadium. All right, So question should should
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Mariano Rivera's injury put an end to the Yankees Old
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Timers Day? So I have two letters. I have an
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: end and I have an O. You put them together
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: and now, absolutely not.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: This is one of the.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: Great traditions in baseball, and you bring back the legends.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: You celebrate that, and we all understand it. You're never gonna.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Get nineteen ninety nine, two thousand, Mariano Rivera. He's in
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: his fifties. Now, you're not gonna get that guy. And
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: we all understand that professional sports are played by young people.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: People in their twenties and thirties are played are players
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: in sports because you're in your peak physical condition when
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: you're in your twenties and your thirties, and when you're older,
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: the body is more fragile and it's more likely to
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: have snap crackle, pop goes the kill these rice crispies.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: It just is now.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: Regardless of that, regardless of it, you cannot live your
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: life wrapped in bubble wrap. You cannot do it now.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: There are people that do it. There are people that
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: do it. You should not do it right, You should
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: not do it. Otherwise you're just in the fetal position
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: the whole time, and you're on your couch and you're
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: sucking your thumb like the boy in the bubble All.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Right, come on, spoiler alert. Life has dangers.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: There are real dangers when you leave your house, there
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: are real dangers you cross the street. You can get
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: absolutely smoked by a bus, right absolutely, there could be
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: You could be at the grocery store and an asteroid
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: from deep space comes crashing through. Do you see that
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: video over the weekend of somebody's house asteroid came down. Yeah,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: in Georgia. Pretty pretty wild. See, you can't approach life
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: that way.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: You can't. You can't play scared. You can't be scared.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: You lose the whole point of it.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: In this case, we're talking about adopey Old Timers Day
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: and all that, and these guys are competitors and they
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: want to go out there and perform, and we talk
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: about the glory days and all that stuff. Now, much
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: like the Yankees we talked about. The only way they'll
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: be changed is if the attendance goes down and the
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: TV ratings go down. Now, for Old Timers Day, the
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: only way this goes away is if the Pinstripers cannot
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: get it insured. If they can't get insurance, now, the
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Yankees will be able to get insurance because they're the Yankees, Right,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: the Pinstripers could ensure Billy Martin, the ghost of Billy
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Martin would get insurance because they're the Yankees, and so
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: they'll keep it going. Injuries be damned, injuries be damned.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: It'll never be safe enough for that crowd, you know
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: who those people are, never be safe enough. And frankly,
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: that's kind of part of the fun. It's like, which
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: old timer guy's gonna get hurt? Will it be a
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: pop Achilles? Will it be an acl injury?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: What is it going to be? Who knows? It's a
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: grab bag? All right now?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: A final thought to San Francisco. I'm old enough to
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: rememb when the Giants got off to a good start. Also,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: the Higantes are a three letter word ba D That
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: is the Giants here now. Justin Verlander, one of the
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: off season editions. His twentieth big league season has been
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: a clunker with a capital C, A clunker.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Verlander has an ERA of four point five to three
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: this year. He's pitched a little bit less than a
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: one hundred innings for the Higantes and he got smashed
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: by the last place Washington Nationals.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I guess that natitude did him in there on Sunday.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: So this follows an ERA of five and a half
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: for the cheating Ahhstros in an injury plague season in
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. So despite currently floating on the Tijuana River.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Now that is the river that is filled with raw sewage.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: It's one of the reasons when the beach is the
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: last beach in San Diego.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: I believe it's called Imperial Beach.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: You cannot swim there because the Tijuana River from Baja California,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: it just flows out raw sewage, raw poop, right into
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: the ocean right there in San Diego. That's essentially Justin Verlander.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: That's essentially Justin Verlander at this particular point. So he
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: wants to return in twenty twenty six. So that's the question.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: That's a jumping off point, giants starter. Justin Verlander. He's
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: forty two, he's having a miserable season, and he would
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: like to continue pitching in twenty twenty six. Can you
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: explain why? So yes, I can't explain why. And I'd
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: like to Chane handle the astrology insider Andrea from Berkeley.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Here the astrology chart in cleats. It is a prime number,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: the number thirty seven. That is why Verlander is thirty
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: seven wins away from the mystical, magical three hundred win plateau.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: And it's like that round number disease. We talk about
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: that round number disease for pitchers. Guys will hang around
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: and they'll chase it.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Even if they have to do it playing.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: At a rec league somewhere, beer league softball, and Verlanders
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: seems to be that guy. He says, if he has
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: a major injury, he's going to retire. Other than that,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: he's going to keep playing. And he'll be out there.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: His arm will literally be duct taped, his elbow will
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: be duct taped, and he'll be out there trying to
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: pitch for the Giants and they'll they'll have to cut
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: the uniform off him, literally Verlander, and he's he'll be
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: the guy out there, forty five years old. I'm throwing
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: eighty two miles an hour, and you'll just slop batting practice,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: slop on the mound, and someone's gonna have to tell.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Him, Hey, Verlander, go home. We don't need you anymore.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: He's got one win this year, one, he's made twenty starts.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: The Giants are five and fifteen. When he pitches, I'm
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: told that's not good. And I'm told that's not good. Now.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: As a distant relative of Nostradamus and friend of nostradenis.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: We know how this story ends for Verlander. He leaves the.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Giants in twenty twenty six, looking into the almighty all
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: powerful crystal ball. He goes back to Motown. Verlander goes
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: to the Detroit Tigers. To complete the circle. You gotta
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: complete the circle. Verlander wants to close the circle. And
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: as Andrea would tell you, the circle of course representing
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth's got to close
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: the circle. There cosmic alignment, cosmic alignment and going to
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: power them through, to power them through and all that stuff.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: And they have a multi year desperate attempt to get
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: the thirty seven wins, which, if you do the math
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: on this, if Verlander can win two more games, which
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: is a lot, he's only got one win. If you
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: win two more games this year, be thirty five wins away.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: So he would have to pitch three more years and
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: average about twelve wins a year to get to that
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: magical number. So that's if he gets two more wins
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: this year, which means he'll be pitching when he's forty
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: five trying to get that final twelve wins to get
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: over the threshold. And I'm seeing it right now, goes
• 21:44

• 21:48

  Speaker 3: I had to laugh when you ad made the comment
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: about tom was getting excited about a male cheerleader.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: Well, they're they're they're here, man. The Rams have one.

  Speaker 1: There might be more male cheerleaders than you know.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Really, we can only hold. We can only hold, can't we? Hey,
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: By the way, don't you think it's kind of ironic
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: that rashaan slave and his wife put a curse on
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: him or something. But not long after he divorced her
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: because he didn't want to share his big sat new
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: contract with him, he blew out his leg and now
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: he's out for a whole damn season.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Well, he still gets the money though, Jerome, he still
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: gets the money.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: He just got a rehab, which sucks. But he's got
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the money.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: But he can't play it. He can't please.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: He's got the money, though you wouldn't you rather have
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: the money?
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I have not have the money, but I signed it.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Kind of ironic that after that happened after he dumped her,
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: so he signed that contract. This happens.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, that actually happened. That happens more than you
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: think there. Do you remember Eric Spolster, the coach of
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: the Heat. He was in a divorce and they waited
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: until the day I think it was the day after
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: after the divorce became official.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: The coach of the Heat was he was with a cheerleader.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: He ended up marrying a cheerleader for the Miami Heat,
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: and then they got divorced, like the day after they
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: signed him to like this huge extension the day after
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: the divorce became final.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: In love Grand Van ain't love Grand. Hey, look here,
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: Busta Polsi a dumb half or what he's paying Borland
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: of fifteen million dollars this year for one one damn win. Okay,
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: one damn win Busta Posy general Manager of the year.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: And by the way, they're going to erect the new
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: statue for bad Bonds. I take medicine aty, I take influence.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Do they need me to send them some surrenders so
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: they can like attach it to the statue because he
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: ain't a chief. Nobody's achieved.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Oh listen, there is cheaters in the Hall of Fame
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: at this point. It's so ridiculous.
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: Who like who, ma'am? Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: You got to name some guys. They were on the commission,
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: the drugglers. I'm sure you could.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: But hey, you don't have a problem with them getting
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: in Hall of It. You have a problem with Barry
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: Bonds because he was the poster boy for cheating. My
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: old point is that the Jerome I said at the Times,
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: they don't put these guys in the Hall of Fame.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: The whole era is tainted.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: They a bunch of those guys are in the Hall
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: of Fame that were suspected steroid cheats.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Their names were on the list. You know, David Ortiz
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: is on there.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: You know, one example, big popular and you go down
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: the list of players that were on that that commissioners
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: investigation and all that stuff, and they're in.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: The Hall of Fame.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: They like your favorite team because you get real for
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: a cliff like that Jason Smiths guy. Whenever these New
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: York teams don't do so well.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: You mean, well, it's great because every year, Jerome, the
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: beginning of the season, I have to hear all this
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: propaganda about how the Mets are going to be wonderful,
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: the Yankees are going to be great. If it's basketball season,
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: they'll watch out for the Knickerbockers. You know, they don't
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: even do it anymore for the Giants and the Jets
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: because they've been so bad for so long and they
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: stop piping those teams up.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: But every other team in New York, they hi bop.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: They love to talk about great they're going to be.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: And then mid season they're blowing chunks and I love it.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: That's because you got a lot of New York Homeless
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: on Fox. Okay, don't you listen to your own network?
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: Huh No, I don't actually listen. I worry about my show.
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: I don't worry about other people show. That's their problem,
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: not my problem. They gotta worry about their own shows.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: What I need to mention this teabout Northwestern. They're building
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: an eight hundred to million dollars football steadium, State of
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: the Yard, the most expansive football teatum in the history
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: of college football. I didn't know Northwestern was that rich.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: I didn't know they had that many rich people rich.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of people that went to Northwestern that's
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: done pretty well for themselves.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: So Western, man, they've win less in football. Uh never,
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: that's a good answer answer. Okay, all right. By the way, Plander,
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: he's never getting the three hundreds.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Never never say never, never say never.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: Unless he's talked to that persuf like sheeting and all that. Never.
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, well, if you said it, you're home.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: It's not gonna I gotta go, thank you. Go right,
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: let's say a lot of Andrea the Astrology Insider, you
• 33:21

• 33:25
  Speaker 2: knows all about prime numbers and cosmic events.
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: And how are you?
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: If I was any better, I would have been that
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: four hundred and seventy million year old asteroid that hit
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: Earth back. I guess it was actually in June. I
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: saw the video over the weekend though, this house in Georgia,
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: and they went back and they looked and they said
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: that it's it's actually older than Earth.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: How about that?
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: Interesting? I know there's a PRINCHI had meteor shower. We
• 33:53
