Was the Lakers last Title Legitimate? · Sports Exchange

0:23
Good nitting everybody. I'll welcome to another edition of The Sports Exchange. My
0:26
name is Scott Morganrolcovers City mad Mounth, please to be joined by Candy Appline,
0:30
Jami Allis and George Iicorn, our regular Wednesday Night crew. Before I
0:34
go into more detail with them, give you an overview what we're going to
0:36
talk about. To talk about former NBA coach George Carl, the New York
0:40
Yankees, what us wrong with that? My goodness? The US soccer team
0:44
dismissing Red Berholter, and we also have a little Detroit Red Wings in Boston
0:50
Bruins saying, yeah, we can throw a little bit of a tidbit about
0:52
mcadaw Island. Why would I come up with a Macada Island tidbit? Let
0:57
me tell you it may not be as bizarre as corn hole and hot dog
1:00
getting contest, but if you've never been to Neck Island, put it on
1:03
your bucket list. It's definitely a way to go. But I'll make sure
1:07
that you exactly know what you have to do when you get there by the
1:08
end of the show. But that's it. Candy, welcome back, Thanks
1:12
Scott, It's great to be here. And George korn Oh, he's a
1:17
pleasure to be here the Sports Exchange. And we know how with this program
1:21
goes decades ago when we started it, Scott, Yeah, you and I
1:25
did. We started and a lot of stations and jv Ellas and Candy Eveling
1:30
are now part of the tradition, right, mister Ellis, Yep, what
1:34
a great tradition to be part of. And we got plenty of big plans
1:40
for you. Ll let's just stick around, my brother from another mother.
1:42
You are connected with a legendary brand here, even though the lot of I
1:47
get the worst of guys. So folks, Scott, just before you go
1:51
on, I mean we talked a lot about the hot dogeting contests. Yeah,
1:53
you know, a quick update to it. There was actually a cheating
1:57
scandal in this year's test. Nick Weary supposedly took a plate and they count
2:07
the hot dogs by having the empty plates. He took one of his competitor's
2:10
plates and put it on his pile, and he got caught cheating. Really,
2:15
I think he ended up finishing third because of that. And he's actually,
2:20
I'm looking it up now, the husband of um. Hang on one
2:24
second, he's the husband of women's division champion Mickey Pseudo. So that's interesting.
2:32
I want to know if that kind of clouds what she did because she
2:35
got over fifty, I think for the first time. So a lot of
2:38
hot dogs stuff going on last week, but it's still happening. Let me
2:43
tell you what hey, Puffin Tang. Glad to have you on the MotorCity
2:46
Smack. Yeah, as much Captain and I brother relying on sprite. But
2:51
I got to tell you one thing though, JB, before we get into
2:53
the topic tonight. You know when you and I did some boxing a while
2:58
back and my voice was booming from one end to the restaurant to the other.
3:01
I was talking to my buddy Chip Targeted, and he was laughing so
3:06
hard because the fact that to me, you know and realize your voice can
3:10
go from one end to the restaurant to the other. And Aj Gasser was
3:16
a manager at the time, and he was laughing all the way from one
3:20
end of the kitchen to the other. So so I'm glad you'll homework on
3:23
that. So what am I supposed to do, Joe? Am I supposed
3:25
to call the hot dog you need conscious? Today's version of the Tour de
3:29
France or the tour the fraud, because it's almost like that's what you're doing
3:34
to me right now. Really seriously, I don't know. All I'm saying
3:37
is you know it was it was a big topic, so we got to
3:40
got to get all the news out there. Hey, no problem. I'm
3:43
all for all the news that we had there. I'm glad to give us
3:46
a good sports exchange updight Update presented by Sideline Sports. All Right, with
3:52
that said, we're going to go to topic number one. Oh, I
3:54
was been chopping at the Pittacus one. Get this one in and we're leading
3:59
off of it. According to Justin Seely, George Carlton strays at the Lakers
4:03
get this. He said the Lakers will be more successful going forward when they
4:09
acknowledge the only championship they won since Phil Jackson left doesn't count. George carl
4:15
via Twitter. Oh that's a pretty good shot, Dandy. Wa what do
4:18
you think it doesn't count? As maybe? Why why wouldn't they count?
4:28
Well, I don't know. You tell me that's George. I mean,
4:32
if you win a championship, you win a championship unless they found a reason
4:36
why. I mean, it's not like it's one game or a hot dog
4:42
Union contest, and you can put a plate on, you know, some
4:45
from somebody else's empty plate. You play a series, and you know,
4:50
I don't care if you win. If you why it like the Marlins did
4:56
when they bought the World Series when they you know, waiting for that one.
5:00
I'm just saying, if you win, you win. Then you know.
5:03
The Lakers, they're a winning franchise, or at least they have been
5:09
in the past. Now the Celtics are the most winningest franchise of championships.
5:14
But I don't think you can go really out and discredit if they want a
5:19
championship. But maybe I'm not seeing something that everybody else is seeing, so
5:25
maybe somebody else in the panel can enlighten me. I don't know. Right
5:29
now. We got a busy chat room, So why don't you go out
5:31
there and put them all up there and we'll just come in on that.
5:32
I love a busy chat room. Start all the way at the top,
5:35
Candy, because there's a lot of them, and our priority here on the
5:39
show is get to everybody. Motor City Smacker Ben is a Glizzly guzzler,
5:45
a hot dog. Okay, it counts. All right, we're talking about
5:49
the championship. It does not count as filming and flumbo, all right,
5:54
keep going. And then they played the same rules and they got it done.
5:57
And I'm anti lakers. That says a lot of Walter. It does
6:00
not count. And that's final out Penguin. You know this guy here,
6:04
when he's final on something, he's final, got a gift. The man
6:08
is due so good for playing in those of the quotes, Aaron flaming and
6:14
flaming Flingo says final. All right. Well, you know what, JB.
6:17
You got a lot of chat and you have and you have an opinion.
6:20
Do you think it counts? It really is a fraudulent championship. You
6:27
know, it counts because they played against everyone else that was in the bubble
6:31
with them, But it's not a real championship. They didn't have to go
6:35
through the regular playoffs, they didn't have travel. You know, they were
6:39
playing against guys. That word is motivated, you know, and just I
6:46
don't think they were as motivated. It just it was a fraudulent season.
6:49
It was something to keep us entertainedble. We were all locked in during COVID.
6:54
You know, the NBA did an amazing job at getting something done so
6:58
that everyone would be safe. Is it a real championship? No? You
7:04
know, at George Carl, way to go, way to say whatever one
7:09
thinks. Now. He reminded me of Charles Barkley, And we'll do a
7:12
show on Charles eventually. But you know, I went to an NSM event
7:16
a couple of years ago. I walked up to Charles states Or saying everything
7:21
that we don't want to say. No problem, but we'll get into him
7:26
later. All right, George, it's your take on this championship? Well,
7:30
I yeah, I mean, I know what you're saying, JB.
7:35
But they did the best they could under the circumstances. Several of the leagues
7:40
obviously had to make an adjustment for COVID nineteen and the pandemic, and as
7:45
you mentioned, there was that strict Orlando, Florida bubble campus to finish out
7:48
the season. I don't know, you know, George, he was a
7:55
coach of the Year, I think, way back in the day, all
7:58
starting coach, I think three or four times games. But you know,
8:03
he's he is a good basketball I respect George Carl, I do respect him,
8:07
but I think he's a little off kilter with this one. I don't
8:09
know why he's trying to bring it up and aggravate the Lakers even more.
8:13
But I do know this is that the Lakers, just like the New York
8:16
Yankees, have failed to live up to their pipe for many many years.
8:22
And you could throw the Dodgers in there too, because the Dodgers didn't they
8:24
win in the COVID year as well? Yeah they did, actually I thought,
8:31
yeah, But you know what I mean, the man's and times his
8:33
opinion. He certainly knows the game, but I don't know, he's just
8:37
trying to steer stuff up. I guess during the slower part the offseason for
8:41
the for the NBA. Okay, back to the chat room. Okay,
8:46
Walter Mitchell, that's not the Lakers ault. Well, he's probably right,
8:48
really, isn't all. But nevertheless, as the beneficiars of the title,
8:52
Chris all Boston surpass him again. What they your picture? All? Right?
8:56
Tim? Jay is a regular show just so you know where is there
9:00
could be on Monday night for baseball. So ri's unbelievable. You talk about
9:05
a guy that I've really developed real well, he does a remarkable job there.
9:09
Okay, Joshua Dora back in the house. What's going on? You
9:11
are a buddy. Where's your buddy? Eric katz Bey On Monday night,
9:16
the whole gang is here. I love the chat room, guys. This
9:18
is unbelievable. Guys at Goal. This is a life of a party on
9:22
a Wednesday night here on the sc What that said, Candy, I'm going
9:26
to take station identification, aren't we? And as far as I'm concerned,
9:30
you know what, I'm not crazy for the championship either, and I do
9:33
respect George Carl a lot. So it would be pretty hard to go out
9:37
there and debate against a guy who ranked some month from the all time winning
9:41
as coaches and then the history that's aids thetation break my Candy invoice, go
9:46
ahead. I mean, if you want to put an asterisk by it,
9:48
like you can put by other things, you can. But in all fairness,
9:54
they played a season, whether it was a full season or not.
9:56
They had to do what they needed to during the COVID they were supposed to
10:01
end in June. They didn't. They suspended because of COVID. They went
10:05
and played in July. At the end of the day, they still had
10:11
to win it. So whether you like it or not, that's the way
10:16
it is. Unfortunately, So let's go to our station identify. Well,
10:20
actually, now that you went there, why don't we hit a few more
10:22
comments other ways we're going to get behind. I love the group that we
10:26
have in here, so we'll give them their two Okay, so let's go
10:28
ahead. Eric needs to come tune into your other shows to properly co contribute
10:33
to the channel. Every once in a while he does. But I see
10:37
your point, Josh. I'm not going to argue that point by any means.
10:39
In case play had Katie can read them with my voice of being in
10:41
that case, where do where do the make the case for special circumstances.
10:46
You can find fault in every sport if you want to find illegitimate reasons for
10:52
certain championships ms. Eric is ripe as a potato to harvest. Yes,
10:58
Minie Scott aka cats should participate in the chat room. Eric is a mouse.
11:03
Eric also does what Eric also does other things. Wednesday nights are typically
11:09
Sports Exchange and US for the typical one. Yes, we welcome anybody in
11:13
the chat room, but some of our like Eric and some other of our
11:18
participants have other shows and have different things that they might be working on as
11:22
well. So we welcome everybody in the chat room, but please keep your
11:30
comments about other participants. Two. How should I put it? Keep them
11:39
respectful? Yeah, and Eric also works with Belly Up Sports, so he
11:43
covers a lot of sports. So you know, being a writer, you
11:46
know the Hours is a writer. He could be at a game right now.
11:48
We don't know. So, Hey, Josh, you say I love
11:52
the drama after being in his business, as long as I do, it
11:58
becomes a part of what you do anyways of me anymore. If you think
12:03

12:16

14:33
all right, well, no, actually, back to Joshua Door.
14:35
I'll love these comments, man. I just wish you could hopefully come on
14:39
the show and battle it out person. But all right, Eric will be
14:41
belly up and I knock him out in the ring. Whoa big challenge,
14:45
Eric? If you listen and Eric will tell you, mister Eric, we'll
14:50
tell you Joshua Door. Okay, he'd like to go ahead and see you
14:54
in here so you can tell it to his space instead of be a strong
14:58
man in the chat room. Okay, nothing like a little bit of a
15:01
rivalry. At least everybody knows forty four Well, then again, that's Joshua
15:05
making me look like a math question. Forty four to the fourth power,
15:09
and that's all I know about math. All right, Let's talk about the
15:11
Bronx spawner Shelley. The New York Yankees of lost sixty to the last twenty
15:16
one game, and the only thing, the exciting thing that's happened to them
15:18
recently is the guy by the name of Ben Rice whenever we talked about this
15:22
on Monday, actually is the first Yankee rookie to ever hit three home runs
15:26
in a game in franchise history. So you know what, mister New Yorker
15:31
jab what is going on in the frons. So we spoke about this two
15:35
weeks ago out Sideline Sports. The Yikes are frauds. I'm the Yikee fan.
15:39
I'm the one that can tell you this team looks great on paper,
15:43
but they you know, their best pitcher, Garrett Cole, he's not a
15:48
guy I want to lead my team. He just got back for being injured.
15:54
He's not a leader. You know, Aaron Judge. He can't do
16:00
it all himself. Wan Soto, you know they can pay for everybody.
16:04
We used to do that under this owner called George Steinbrenner. He used to
16:08
bring in the best talent all around, and they never won the best record
16:12
of the eighties, they won nothing. Then, you know, George Steibrenner
16:17
did stupid things. He got suspended. They hired somebody, but they have
16:21
a gen Michael, and they learned how to build a farm system, and
16:25
they all of a sudden it started winning. They went on the great run.
16:27
It was like, you know, the early Yankees in the forties,
16:30
fifties and sixties. You know, but now we're back to the old ways
16:36
of just trying to buy things and that doesn't work. It never did.
16:40
That's why the Oreos, the Tigers, you know, and some of these
16:44
other teams are starting to build and become better because they're building through their farm
16:48
system. That's how you get better. You could get a guy or two,
16:51
but you can't build your team from free agency and the best players out
16:56
there. That doesn't make a team. Yeah. And by the way,
17:00
as if it really matters, Joe Girardi took a job in the broadcast booth
17:04
and you know, donmatically you know, you never know if you'll hear those
17:07
names later on, George will ahead take over from there. Well, yeah,
17:11
I know, we had the discussion too a year ago and we were
17:14
talking about Boone should be replaced as manager. I know several people that have
17:18
been on the one hundred and eighth since his show have mentioned that before too.
17:23
One of the big things that hurt them. You know, one of
17:26
their best players I always liked him was he's from Michigan, DJ Lemayhew.
17:33
He's only played thirty three out of ninety one games for the Yankees this year,
17:37
so that hurt. What everybody has injuries, so you can't use that
17:41
excuse. You're right, JB. I mean, you know Aaron Judge hitting
17:45
three, a Sodo's hitting two ninety one, then you drop all the way
17:51
down to two seventy three for Birdie and Ben Rice at two sixty seven a
17:56
rookie, and you know they're just they you use the word frauds, I
18:00
mean, yeah, it is a fraudulent like you said, on paper,
18:04
only they're looking like great team or you know, a lot of wins and
18:08
being a being a contender for the America like Pennon. But down, no,
18:14
there's the pitching isn't as good as it should be, and obviously the
18:18
hitting has been far from consistent. It's just a situation now where it seems
18:23
like this is how the Yankees are year after year after year. On paper,
18:29
they might look like something good, but then when it comes down to
18:32
the postseason, they always seem to fade out and fade out fast. Yeah,
18:37
you know, I hate to say this. I was talking to my
18:40
good friend Dev and I actually put it the Yankees into Phillies will make it
18:44
to the World Series. Oh well, I don't even think there's gonna be
18:47
an issue with the Philly But boy, I look like I got mud on
18:49
myself from making that. Then as far as delay d J. Mayhew,
18:53
I had a chance to interview on when he was with the Colorado Rockies,
18:56
and I'll remember that. Yeah, I would wish he had gone to Detroit.
19:00
The ever worked out, but I thought when he got to New York
19:03
if he would have performed a fit better. Although he's been decimated by injuries,
19:06
people can know what a good player that he really was. So but
19:11
you know, what did I have for dinner? You know, puff and
19:12
penguin. I really haven't been feeling very good all day, so I have
19:17
one piece of pizza. Eric Joshua Door, I'm going to say this one
19:19
time, buddy, and I try to be respectful, Okay, Derek Katz
19:22
is a fraud and then his final I feel that the most disrespectful comment you
19:26
can make, and Joshua Dor, I'm going to prove a point that behind
19:30
that Joshua doer comes a Joshua bursting. So for a lot of you ons
19:33
that want to send him a friend request, his name is b U R.
19:37
S TEI n okay because I feel that what you just said is not
19:42
very professional and I don't like a bald belt when it comes to insulting one
19:48
of my most talented players. I know you don't think much of it,
19:51
Joshua Door, but you know I think that if you were on the camera
19:55
or not on the camera, I don't think. As my mother always told
19:56
me, treat one as you want to be, and I think you're a
20:00
bit way out of line. Puff and Penguin one piece of pizzas all I
20:03
had one feeling. Well, Okay, the problem is that my market feels
20:08
it's their birthplace to get all tip top tier free agents. That's true,
20:14
So so ballbust or not, josh for all of you want to go there,
20:18
Nail, his name is Joshua bursting on Facebook and then you can go
20:22
he doesn't have to hide behind a door. Okay, Candy, With that
20:26
said, go ahead, what's you're talking about? The Yankees? So the
20:30
Yankees total payroll is over three hundred and seven million. Of that on the
20:37
injured list is sixty four million of it. Every team has players on the
20:47
injured list. What I think it's a combination of I think it's a combination
20:53
of Let's face it, New York is in a big market. They're expected
21:00
because they have big market, they have big money that they should be able
21:04
to produce. When it comes to on the field, it's not always what
21:12
your salary is. That you've gotten paid, that means that you at some
21:17
point played really well, but that doesn't mean that together you all are playing
21:25
well together as a team. I can say that I've so for most of
21:33
you. Maybe some of you know or don't know that I do sports photography.
21:38
So I am actually in the photo well right next to the dugout of
21:44
a lot of these MLB teams, and it amazes me. You can tell
21:52
when a team isn't doing well, and you can tell when a team is
21:55
having fun and are playing loose, and when they're having fun and playing loose
22:02
most of the time, their record will show that. And specifically in certain
22:07
games, if people are in the dougouts cheering other players, if they're you
22:14
know, and I've seen it, because I saw it. We saw the
22:18
Miami Marlins, who are having a horrible season, and I will give you
22:22
that. We were there on July fourth when they lost to the Boston Red
22:26
Sox, but we were there also on Sunday when they beat the Chicago White
22:32
Sox in the ninth inning with a after Jake Berger has had an unbelievably bad
22:41
streak, but yet the manager still believed in him, put him batting in
22:48
the ninth inning and he hits a three run home run to walk off and
22:55
win the game. But I can tell you there was a difference in that
22:59
club house in that dugout on Sunday than there was on July fourth. So
23:06
I think part of it has to do with the attitudes that each individual team
23:11
member brings to the game on each individual day. And I think if someone's
23:17
in a bad slump, and let's play, let's face it, almost all
23:21
the players go into bad slumps from now time and time because it's a long
23:26
season. But I think other players can bring you up, and I think
23:33
that's and the coaches can too. Don't get me wrong, but I think
23:37
that's where I see some of the lack of the Yankees is that you don't
23:42
see that. You don't see a lot of that camaraderie, whereas I do
23:48
see that on some of the other teams. Let's face it, for years
23:52
the Brewers did not do well. But one thing they said under and this
23:56
was under Council at first started that the team really gelled together and looked like
24:02
they were really having fun and they had success. Now did they win it
24:06
all? No, But the Brewer's payroll is nothing close to the Yankees payroll.
24:12
That's what I'm gonna say. Okay, well tell you what. We're
24:15
going back to the chat room and Walter Mitchell's comments that Joshua has put it
24:21
up. I think everybody in the world should see it. At Joshua really
24:25
going in on someone who's not on the ship. Can't wow A good point,
24:29
all right, Joshua door And I hate doing this stuff I have to
24:32
do anyways, Dear Scott, I am sorry for taking it too far.
24:34
Amen. Okay, we'll prove that to me when you don't do it again.
24:37
All right, now, Puffing Penguin. I like this one though here,
24:41
Josh, I think you took it a little too far there. Your
24:42
punishment is to eat a bag of broccoli live on the show. That's not
24:48
bad, actually, Puffing Penguin, I think that's fair punishment. I don't
24:52
know what do I think. I think you just go out there and do
24:53
it in front of all of us. We can laugh at you, but
24:56
all right, all right, so everybody get a you know, just to
25:00
respond to candies comments. Though it's different playing for the Yankees. There's a
25:04
different expectation. It's not like, you know, playing for I don't know,
25:12
the kids, the kid the Kansas City Royals. There's no expectations when
25:18
you play for Kansas City. If you guys happen to do well that year,
25:22
you happen to do well. When you are the Yankees, the goal,
25:25
every day, every breath, is to win the World Series. Everything
25:29
else is unacceptable. You know, I had the luck to be at the
25:34
Subway Series against the Mets. I was at three of the I think it
25:38
was five games if I remember correctly, that they wanted it and you know
25:42
they were at Shay and the guy who got his tickets actually got it from
25:47
the Mets. He knew people in the front office. So I had to
25:49
try and be somewhat controlled and not be too excited. And my father's a
25:52
huge Mets fan, so I actually felt bad that we were going to beat
25:56
them. But you know that there was no winning for US World Series.
26:00
If we won the World Series, we beat the Mets, big deal.
26:03
If we lost, we lost to the Mets and we lost the World Series.
26:07
It's every year. It's you know, it's the same thing with the
26:10
Celtics. Once there's a basketball you're expected to win the championship. Nothing else
26:15
is acceptable, any type of losing. You know, they can't go one
26:18
hundred and sixty two it out, but it's expected to go one hundred and
26:22
sixty two it. Oh, there's no excuse for losing. So it's hard
26:25
to have fun of that type of circumstance. And that's why not all players
26:27
could perform and can live up to the hype when they get into the New
26:32
York market, the LA market, where there's such scrutiny. Well, Joe,
26:37
here's the thing. You're in the number one media market, you have
26:38
nine million different writers and broadcasters, radio people all over. You're in the
26:42
scrutiny big time, you know, Kim Jay, I think Scott is happier
26:45
when Candy's on shore. Yeah, I think I feel good. Number one,
26:48
she had to be talented in a lot of different ways. And you
26:52
know, she's one of the best female commentators out there because you're not.
26:56
She's one of those individuals that knows a lot about sports. She really does
27:00
us. That's why she has a couple of shows as well. So,
27:02
yeah, Kim do you definitely are right? I feel pretty good when she
27:04
is on the show, for sure. Puffing Penguin, I think boy Sox
27:07
will win the World Series this year. Well, you know, I guess
27:11
you're in the cannabis business right there, puffing penguin or you're puffing something.
27:15
I don't know, but okay, you know, but I'll leave it at
27:18
that. Well that's a long shot. Yeah, Well, you know,
27:22
I feel a responsibility to answered these questions, no shot. I feel like
27:27
I'm trying to be respectful to the customers. Okay, yeah, and that's
27:33
exactly what I'm doing. Okay, I've eaten a lot of things. I've
27:36
eaten crow and I'll you know, I've eaten my words. But whatever,
27:40
Kim, Kim deserves their opportunity to get on there puffing penguin as long as
27:42
it's koshert We're good. Kim. Are you in the military. Do you
27:47
have your own military? I don't know, Kim. Bring a few down
27:49
here to put Joshua Dore in his place and we'll be find there. All
27:52
right. Well, another organization that's under fire, that I mean really literally
27:57
under fire is the fact that US soccer is suspicion Craig Burhalter is the wake
28:03
of the Americans finishing eleventh place at the Copa America. According to a Wednesday
28:08
afternoon report from Doug McIntyre the Fox Sports. Let's put it this way,
28:14
Okay, the US has done well in a lot of sports. Okay,
28:19
soccer is their achilles heel. So with that said, Candy, what do
28:23
you think and puff and penguin? You guys are a bunch of pushy bullies.
28:27
I think I can win what I want, all right, whatever,
28:32
dreaming, dreaming, But don't expect me to go out there and sing a
28:36
puff and penguin. You can you can definitely have your own opinion. You
28:38
can definitely express well who you think is gonna win the World Series. I
28:44
just think everybody on this panel does not agree with you on that opinion.
28:49
That's all we're saying. But yes, you have definitely a right to think
28:55
what you want to think. And if you want to think the White Sex
28:57
are gonna win the World Series, keep thinking that. I just would.
29:02
I would just would bet you out. And I don't know what I would
29:04
bet you, but I'd love to bet you if they would win that,
29:07
if they would win, you send me a White Sox hat and I'll wear
29:12
it on the show. That's if they win the World Series. In fact,
29:17
I'll go a step further. Okay, Puff and Penguin, you want
29:19
your own podcast, I'll give it to you if you got the guts that
29:22
come on if you do. I mean, after all, we'd love to
29:25
be able to have you on. I get the feeling you have a lot
29:27
of potential. What do you think, JB. You think there's the potential
29:30
to go on sideline sports if you set the standards that much higher over what
29:33
you're seeing the chat room with this guy. Listen, everyone's entitle to their
29:38
opinion. I think you know he just wants some airtime, and that's not
29:42
the way to get airtime. It's sideline sports. There you go, and
29:48
they got thousands and thousands of followers. So puff and Penguin, you didn't
29:52
impress, mister Ellis. I'm willing to give you your own show if you
29:55
want to come on here and I will show you how easy it isn't especially
29:59
when the after problem it And I know that you have better things to do
30:00
with your time, all right, Walter Mitchell White Sox will win the world
30:03
series on Xbox and PlayStation. That's kind I like that, all right,
30:07
So that was really good, all right, Puffing teng went all right?
30:11
Yeah, see, you know one thing about these guys. They look like
30:12
boxers. Okay, you know, but they're like the rope of dopes,
30:15
only forget the rope. They're just dopes when they make these comics. So
30:18
there you go. Muhammad Ali, love you, man, and thanks for
30:22
all the great memorable and Joshua Door, it's good to have the roasting business
30:26
go around. While Puffing Tenguin got roasted. You got it. Let's go
30:30
out there and bring it out there, all right, So flaming Flingo,
30:34
Okay, question for JB. Does Scott Pullia No, No, we work
30:41
all together. Probably The thing is we think so much alike. It's ridiculous.
30:47
Him and I him are like a Xerox copy machine. You know,
30:51
you copy me, I copy you, and all of a sudden we don't
30:53
do it. But you know what, I like that question though, flaming.
30:56
I mean, I don't like to bully anybody around, you know,
30:59
but when you have characters like puff and Punlan and Joshua door Slat Burnstein,
31:03
you know again, find him on Facebook and then you can roast them all
31:07
you want, okay, And if Puffin Penguin wants to get out of control,
31:11
you can also go ahead and find Blake Lozinski on there as well.
31:15
In case you want to take a crack at him, go ahead and do
31:18
it. I mean, you know, you know, we like to get
31:21
more at time outside of the chat room. A right on to the us
31:25
Candy, Do you have a chance to talk about you soccer yet? Or
31:26
do I get sidetracked? No? Nobody did we have a soccer at all?
31:32
Well? Question for George can you give us your best roast of Pufflin?
31:41
How about dog check? You get a dog check? There you go
31:44
Oh he loves that. Okay, I'm surprised that Joshua hasn't asked for that
31:48
yet. Yeah, I don't worry. Given time, he's just trying to
31:51
comprehend all the roasting he's getting because the Motor City Madmouth is hammering him again.
31:56
So a question for Candy, would you visit Korea to cover some sports?
32:02
You're talking South or North Korea? Yeah, I would cover the KBO,
32:10
the Korean Baseball Organization. I cover baseball all over the world, and
32:14
the KBO actually came in handy one MLB was shut down. So if you
32:19
want me to answer that question on my behalf, okay, I would say
32:22
I'd go to Korea all day long, mostly get some international travel in the
32:25
next few years as things wind down. So I go there, Kady,
32:29
would you go? Of course, you're my photographer. I probably drag it
32:30
there with the we got passports are valid, So send Eric to Korea.
32:37
You know what, you give them an opportunity to write baseball. You go.
32:39
Don't kid yourself, kidj All right, now we'll get onto this topic.
32:44
Even though where flabbergasted with all the incredible comments we're getting in the chat,
32:50
and I mean really incredible, all right, Candy US Soccer. How
32:54
desperate is that when you get rid of the coach after finishing eleventh that they've
32:58
never won a World Cup anyway, you know, this is the second time
33:02
he's coached the team. Let's face it, the US does not put the
33:07
same emphasis on soccer as it's not our first sport, and in many other
33:15
countries it is their first sport. It is their highlights sport, so they
33:22
get the best of the best, and even players that come play for MLS,
33:27
Like, let's face it, Lionel Messi is playing for Inner Miami.
33:30
He's not playing for the US in the Cup. He's going to back and
33:35
playing for his country where most of them do. So is it surprising that
33:42
we have that We're going through coaches and they're not getting the results that we
33:46
would like. We're not a powerhouse in soccer, and we unless we start
33:52
emphasizing it more, paying more, doing more for the sport, we won't
33:59
be because as we don't put it on the pedestal that a lot of these
34:02
other countries do. It's some countries it's the only sport that they play.
34:07
And no, so am I sad to see him go I'm not a big
34:14
soccer fan. I'll admit I watch zero on TV of it pretty much.
34:22
I do go to inner Miami games once in a while to use my photography
34:28
skills and stuff like that. But am I surprised no, because they haven't
34:34
been doing as well. But the competition is tough, all right. Back
34:39
to Walter Mitchell, White Sox forty games under five hundred, so yeah,
34:44
I think they have a bit of a hole there to get out. Would
34:47
go and bring candy with them. Great minds, take a light their flaymen
34:51
and a White Sox want to win unless they trade for Rick Vaughan and William
34:55
a wild thing. Rick Vaughan from Major League. Yeah, there you go,
35:00
Willie Mays and have Harry Doyle doing radio. They ain't coming back from
35:06
that depth. Say hey, listen, I got news for you. I
35:07
wouldn't mind doing some play by play. I was telling my buddy Chip Target
35:10
and who, by the way, what was on the Motor City Man Mouse
35:14
Show. I yearned for that opportunity to do play by play in public speaking.
35:17
So you never know, all right, Joe, you know you've had
35:21
a chance to dig just this US soccer thing. Thanks puffing Penguin for the
35:23
kind words, good show tonight, A few topics. We might even break
35:28
a lot of hockey topic and I don't know if you're young enough old enough
35:30
to understand it, but we got one anyways, So go ahead, Joe
35:34
about soccer. I mean, US soccer is going to eventually get better.
35:39
You know. The US Soccer Federation based at Chicago. You know, I've
35:45
attended some of their events. They care about the health of their their players.
35:50
They've looked. They had a whole concussion seminar that I went to last
35:53
summer. They work very hard with MLS to make the game better throughout the
35:59
country. They're slowly trying to build it up. More children now play soccer
36:05
in the US, probably than ever before. You know, it's getting there.
36:09
We're not there yet. You know, basketball is better, Football is
36:15
better. You know, baseball and hockey are falling. So you know,
36:20
soccer has a chance to go into that third spot at some point, and
36:23
if it just continues to progress, it will. Soccer is a tough sport,
36:28
though. You need to have a grass field or a big enough space
36:31
that you can play in, you know. And you know, right now,
36:37
my generation who has children, we don't know enough about soccer, you
36:43
know. I mean we talk about it on Sideline sports. I'll be only
36:46
one besides Raphael that knows anything about soccer. And I don't even know that
36:51
much about it, you know, but I enjoy it. So everybody else
36:54
thinks it's a horrible game. So it's gonna take, you know, a
36:58
generation or two more before it actually gets where it needs to be. But
37:02
it's tough to lose your job. It's tough when you underperform. The US
37:08
has to figure it out because you know, there are a lot of countries
37:12
in the world that are better at soccer than us. We're not getting better
37:15
quick enough. Well, let me tell you many years ago, when I
37:19
first started covering the sport back in South Florida, back in the early eighties,
37:22
I was working with my friend Chip Damius, unfortunately the best PR guy
37:25
I've ever worked with in my lifetime. Anyways, so he decided to put
37:30
on an event for all of us. By the way, Kim Jay,
37:32
great show on your toilet puff in there you go, boy, your how
37:35
much are getting better and better? Good stuff? Okay, but anyways,
37:38
somebody go back to the story. So Chip goes out there and they have
37:42
a practice deal behind Lockhart Stadium, so you had the Fort Lauderdale staff administration
37:47
against the media. Let me tell you something, you better be conditioned to
37:52
play in sport that if you're not, you're going to be in trouble.
37:55
I had to take down and end up talking to me as Spryan Angel and
37:59
I had to be at the Dolphins training camp later that day with Don Shula,
38:02
and I'll tell you what. I sprained my ankle when I got taken
38:06
down, went to the hospital and bounced back to go seat Coach Shula and
38:09
we had a great story. He said, you want me to cut you
38:13
or put you on rendered reserve because at that point he started to like me
38:15
because I got better at my job. You know, again, when you're
38:19
young and you're talking to Don Shula, he's an easy guy to intimidate together,
38:22
but when he gets to know you, he's the greatest person on the
38:24
planet. But he liked me, you know. But but you know,
38:29
the reality is if you're not conditioned to play that sport, you don't have
38:31
a prayer. You don't And one thing I've learned about soccer players is you
38:37
know why they have so much training. You better be extremely conditioned to play
38:40
this sport, you really really do, otherwise you're not going to survive.
38:45
All right, Walter Mitchell soccer not at all, Candy, your right financially
38:50
is making a dent. Plus it's as boring to watch. Well you know,
38:53
I mean there's as much scoring, but back in the day when they
38:55
had the indoor soccer League, they were scoring a lot. And is pretty
39:00
much always writing you know, Kim Jay, I would never debate that,
39:04
and if I did debate it, I'd be in troublesome. I'm not that
39:07
stupid anyway. So well that said, I told you it's your turn.
39:13
Well yeah, coach Coach Burhalter was fired and the reason why is because there
39:21
was a poor performance at Copa America. We were one of the host countries
39:27
in the group, but we lost to both Uruguay and Panama. So it
39:31
says that this was the first time that the US ben's team was eliminated from
39:37
a group stage of a World Cup, Copa America or Gold Cup that it
39:42
hosted. So this is just agg on our face and I agree with everything
39:46
you guys have said. I know it's not the top sport in the United
39:50
States, but there are a ton of soccer fans in America and around the
39:54
world. Obviously, it's the number one sport in the world. So now
39:59
you got the w World Cup, okay, in twenty twenty six. So
40:01
what we were trying to do, the US team was trying to build up
40:05
some momentum. We're hosting along with Canada and Mexico and a unique arrangement in
40:10
the twenty twenty six World Cup. So this fact that we got bounced out
40:15
of Copa America early, obviously, you know, Burhalter, the coach,
40:21
is going to take the blame because they want to see progress. The powers
40:24
that be at the US men's national team, they want to see progress.
40:29
I mean, you know, the girls, the ladies teams have just been
40:31
fantastic as we know over the past eight or ten years, but the men
40:37
have to continue to struggle. They have a real difficult time getting into any
40:42
high visibility wins. And that's because of a lot of the reasons that you
40:45
guys just talked about. You know that soccer is popular with the young kids,
40:52
but there seems to be a disconnects as those kids grow up and get
40:55
a little bit older. I mean, unless you're able to be so talented
41:00
you play for your college team and then possibly into the North American Soccer League.
41:06
I mean, you know, then you'd have a chance to say that,
41:07
yeah, this kid's got a soccer future. But a lot of kids
41:10
don't do that. You know, there's so many other there's so many other
41:14
things, baseball, football, especially in hockey as well basketball. So I
41:19
just want to sum this up by saying, coach, you let us down,
41:22
and unfortunately, this is what happens when you let people down, you
41:25
end up losing your job. Well, you know what, George, either
41:30
you've got way better eyesight than I do, or you're right. Eye must
41:34
have been looking in the chat because Walter Mitchell said, what's weird is women
41:37
do very well, and as since the World Tough and the nineties of men
41:44
couldn't take advantage of the opportunity. More importantly, the men had only four
41:47
goals in the last World Tough. And I'm thinking if you have the mL
41:51
LASSES approving ground or developmental for some reason, I didn't see where it was,
41:55
but I don't know, but the women have done them. That's not
41:59
taking anything away from the women. Let's face reality, they've had an incredible
42:01
run for sure. All right, we have one hockey note I want to
42:05
get to and it's not on the state thing, but involves two big name
42:10
players. We'll see if some know who they are, maybe some don't,
42:14
but it's certainly worth mentioning that on this day in nineteen fifty seven, the
42:19
Boston Bruins received Johnny Busick from the Detroit Red Wings in exchange for Terry Sawchuk.
42:24
Well, we all know how that. All I can say about that
42:28
is that trade was a win win for both of both teams, and of
42:30
course Sachac unquestionably one of the greatest goaltenders of all time. I do believe
42:36
he led the Red Wings for one or two Cups if I remember, right,
42:38
George, Yes, yeah, back in the back in the nineteen fifties.
42:43
Yeah he was. Oh, you're right, and usually, I mean,
42:45
they're both Hall of famers. Come on, and Terry died unfortunately in
42:50
that terrible, strange accident horse play they called it during the offseason, sauchak.
42:58
But yeah, he's he's undoubted the Detroit's top goaltender of all time,
43:01
all due respect to Chris Osgod and you know, Mike Vernon and some of
43:06
the other great ones they've had over the years, but Roger Krozer, But
43:09
yeah, the Sawchik was great. What a great and like I said,
43:13
Busic a Hall of famer. Great trade for both well. The reality of
43:15
the situation in Terry Sadgins was the greatest goaltenders ever played the game. Joe,
43:20
do you do you know much about those two players at all? Do
43:22
you sick? And yeah, you know back in the day, you know,
43:28
they were unbelievable goaltenders. So he was a great goaltender. Busiic was
43:31
great. And when you have when you play for an Original six team,
43:36
it is candy. You want to say anything about it, or they have
43:37
one topic, but I think it's going to be a very enlightening one.
43:40
Anything you want to go ahead? Yeah, Walter Mitchell names from the past,
43:45
memories, old wings, you bet, and Walter when I see some
43:49
interesting things like this, you know, the only thing we like to do
43:51
with the sports are changer. We have a little bit more leeway is we're
43:53
going to talk about every single sport that we can get to. And then
43:57
over the last couple of weeks we talked about the hot dog eating contest and
44:00
after this topic, I got a doozy here lined up, Candy, I
44:04
know you would. You just started getting in the hockey when you're around me.
44:07
Anything you want to add about sawchrek abusic at all? No, except
44:13
I was doing a little research and it just said GM. Lynn Patrick made
44:15
one of the most important trades in Bruin's history during the summer of nineteen fifty
44:20
seven, after Terry Sauchak indicated he was coming out of retirement. He was
44:24
traded back to the Detroit Red Wings for John Buck and Larry Hillman's hard That's
44:30
good enough. Okay, let's go on to the next topic. Okay,
44:34
for those of you that would like to go ahead and find a bucket list
44:37
tight, I'll give you one now. So we'll call it our nonsports subject.
44:40
Every once in a while I'm going to bring a non sports subject there
44:43
to kind of loosen things up a little bit, give you a taste of
44:45
the world. But this is a good one. When I saw it come
44:47
across, I got to put this on tonight. Honestly, Scott, before
44:52
you do it, I'm going to say this almost belongs on tomorrow night's show
44:55
on Fire Up because it's almost like my town. Oh you know, well
45:01
he became your time. When you looked at the Milton, he thought I'd
45:05
add it. But you know what, but you know what, that's your
45:07
show. You have your own sign to show me. Tell everybody Candy Eblang
45:12
when you talk about how talented she is, she has her own show called
45:15
Fire Up. And you know what, she does an unbelievable job hosting that
45:19
show. If anybody deserves the host of the show, that woman does.
45:22
So with that said, okay, Macaw Islands Careless Road gets a speed limit.
45:30
Okay. Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed a bill Monday that adds a speed limit
45:36
to Mackinac Islands M one eighty five. Under the new law, electric bicycles
45:40
and bicycles cannot exceed fifteen miles an hour. Visitors can get around by using
45:46
a horseback, horse drawn carriages on foot. Okay, but so you know
45:52
what jb ellis, what do you think about this thing? Fifteen miles an
45:55
hour? Really? I don't understand, and I don't. Maybe I have
46:01
to go there to see it, like Cape Con and there's a lot of
46:04
places you can't even take a car. Before I went there, I was
46:07
like, what's the point. It was beautiful. So at once in my
46:09
life, I'm good. Never gotta go back. Maybe I got to see
46:13
it to understand, but I don't know. It's Michigan. Yeah, well
46:17
it is. But let me tell you. When I ended up running a
46:21
bike a few years ago, I was going twenty twenty five miles an hour.
46:23
I'm wait a little speeded. I used to speeded. I know I
46:28
was jail. You can spend the night in jail for that. Don't do
46:31
it? Well, no, I did it back then before the law.
46:35
Yeah, well no, you kid. I don't think my knees will allow
46:40
me to do it even if I try. But you know what, So
46:44
if you're saying Bolt went there, right, he decided to run one hundred
46:47
meters dash, He's got to run quicker than twenty five miles an hour firste
46:52
hundred meters right, right, So would they arrest him. We'll give him
46:55
a ticket. No, they didn't say nothing about foot. They're only talking
47:00
about these other things like you know what. That's why this topic made the
47:04
show because the comments like that. All right, So here, let's go
47:07
back to Walter Mitchell. Okay, laugh out loud. I guess that's what
47:10
lol means. Right as a Michigander. That's funny. Lol. I'll be
47:15
darn gut stuff Walter. All right, Mconland is the same way, no
47:19
cars allowed. Yeah about that? All right? Adam Bloomstained, Hello everybody,
47:23
Hello Adam? All right? With that said, Yeah, I don't
47:27
know. I mean I was going pretty fast get around that island on a
47:30
bike. But you know, I wouldn't mind doing the horse thing. I
47:35
really don't know if I want to do the horse thing, but I'd rather
47:37
do the carriage. That way, nobody can nail me. There are times
47:39
I've had to go in Georgia that Candies had to take over because the people
47:44
let Georgia like me so much that I prefer that they didn't like me,
47:47
and I turned it over to Candy. So I'm staying away from those people.
47:52
But Katy, you know what, fifteen miles an hour you were with
47:54
me. Okay, this will make our travel plans a little different there.
48:00
No, I can't haul with a bicycle of war. You haul up on
48:07
a bicycle. Come on, let's face, let's face it. State Highway
48:12
M one five. For those of you that have never been there, it
48:15
wraps eight point two miles around the entire island. It's fairly level, with
48:22
only a few hill hills. A runner can make it in forty five minutes,
48:25
but walking can take one point five to three hours including stops. What
48:32
year did they stop allowing cars on Mackinac Island, Scott? Do you know?
48:38
No, I don't remember to read that far. I like to go
48:42
SPEEDLM in a fifteen miles hour. I'm a one track mine. On July
48:46
sixth, eighteen ninety eight, village leaders enacted a ban on motor vehicles after
48:53
local residents complained the dangerous horseless carriages that had newly arrived on the island.
49:00
We're frightening their horses. The vehicle ban has become one of Mackinaw Island's most
49:07
iconic features. It is the only state highway in the US that bans cars.
49:15
So my only question is if it bans all motorized vehicles, does that
49:22
mean a police car and any emergency vehicles can't go on it? Because it
49:30
bans motorized vehicles, makes one wonder all right? Not sure? Well?
49:37
You talk about the eighteen hundred something, my great grandfather of Marris Crawl,
49:42
I don't think it's a live back then. So you know that's that.
49:44
So Walter Mitchell, don't forget you go saber scan in a basketball friendly tender
49:47
in Eastern Standard Time on FS one. All right, thanks, well,
49:52
appreciate that. All right. So all right, George, you're the Michigan
49:54
resident here. I mean, you know, you know, yeah, what
50:00
was happening is I think one of the things they started getting these e bikes,
50:05
these electronic bikes, and what they're finding out was a lot of the
50:10
men and women that are running those up on the island are going too fast,
50:15
so that a little bit. I know, it sounds funny and it
50:16
sounds goofy and all that, but the problem was is that with this craze
50:22
going on now, with the motorized bikes, uh, there's just too much
50:25
chance for air. There's too many chances for accidents up there. I mean,
50:30
this is this is this is the movie Somewhere in Time with christ the
50:34
Lake, Christopher Reeve. I mean, you know, this is what McNall's
50:37
all about. It's just a special, poignant place, especially popular with newlyweds
50:44
and wedding anniversaries and wedding couples and romance and all that. So it's it's
50:50
it's it's a very unique place. I mean, you know, no cars,
50:54
I don't know that. I'm sure that they've got provisions for ems and
50:59
police, but I don't know what those are. I have not I've been
51:01
on the island probably about five or six times in my life, not recently.
51:06
But it is a wonderful place, no question about it. It's a
51:09
beautiful island. But this all was started and that's why Governor Whitmer had assigned
51:14
this and the legislature put this bill together, is because they had to catch
51:19
up part of the fund with the speedsters that e were doing these electronic bikes
51:23
out of the island all of a sudden, and Joe, when you ultimately
51:27
make your way over that island, I'll tell you one thing. That fudge
51:30
is unbelievable. So you know, when you do get there and you have
51:35
to walk mark my word, you'll be walking off that fudge. And if
51:37
you have a kill, one's in your neck of the wood. They had
51:39
Mecan Island fudge. I don't know if they have in Chicago whatever, but
51:43
that stuff is unbelievable. Oh yeah, they're famous for that. Yeah yeah,
51:46
I mean and Walter Mitchell again, I don't believe there's a functioning medical
51:51
facility. I don't know. I don't agree with that. There's got to
51:53
be something there for radical I don't know. I mean, I can't really
51:58
answer it one way or the other. But if there isn't, then just
52:00
make sure you take that ferry across the Macinaw City. I know there's something
52:04
probably over there that's oh yeah, yep, yeah, I mean it's unreal.
52:07
So with that said, I'm going to leave it up to the crew.
52:09
Do you guys want any parting shots? I don't need any tonight.
52:13
No. No, what about you, Joe you got something you want to
52:15
get off your chest? No? I got it at the beginning with the
52:17
hot dog issue. Yeah. Well, and listen, you know, we
52:23
go or like Canada, we go far and wide with the topics and never
52:27
we're going to come up with and you know, with you mentioning that other
52:30
stuff, maybe it's probably just as well that I didn't bring up it.
52:32
But it was kind of neat though. When you look at Kobeyashi and Joey
52:37
Chestnut doing their own thing, I'll be curious to what happens come Labor Day
52:42
when they go head to head. You got to guys there there are legends
52:45
in the eating business squaring off over Labor Day. I only knows where we're
52:49
gonna be, but but there was some intrigue for July fourth. Anyways,
52:53
go ahead, Candy, so let me just you know, go to what
52:58
George was saying. Mackinawe Island Police patrol on foot and bicycle in the summer,
53:02
and there's a police vehicle available for emergencies. The force includes a chief
53:08
corporal handful of officers respond to about one hundred incidents per year. They also
53:16
do have a medical department. They have they do have fire trucks, and
53:22
they do have an ambulance to transport people to the mackinaw Island Medical Center if
53:28
necessary. There you go, interesting good research. Thank you, Candy.
53:34
Well, I'll tell you one thing, the Candy is unbelievable when it comes
53:37
to researching as well as everything else she does. I will say, though
53:38
that topic we began with at the top of the hour, with George Carl
53:42
talking about the Lakers, I definitely kill there's a lot of relevance to what
53:46
he's talking about. You know, let's say the reality you know that bubble.
53:51
I know they're going to get a ring. But and Frank Bogel lost
53:53
his job. But you know, it's not like they've gone through a lot
53:57
of coaches. So since Phil Jackson left, I'll bring that up for another
54:00
show. So with that said, we're gonna everybody go around and wait one
54:04
last, one, last interesting thing. The mckinaw Island Fire Department is the
54:09
oldest fire department in Michigan, dating back to the early eighteen hundreds. Wow,
54:19
there's a tributa for everybody. Yeah, interesting stuff, Candice, unbelievable.
