Hour 2: Subway shooting · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

0:00
Speaker 1: Well, of all the midterm elections, and there's seven toss-ups
0:04
Speaker 1: in the Senate that are going to define and decide
0:07
Speaker 1: the fate of the United States Senate, the most interesting
0:11
Speaker 1: one is happening in Michigan, because it's the only place
0:14
Speaker 1: the Republicans have a realistic chance of picking up a seat.
0:19
Speaker 1: It's between Mike Rogers and, he doesn't like to be
0:22
Speaker 1: called Mohammed, Abdul Al-Sayed, even though Muhammad really is his
0:27
Speaker 1: first name, he says that it is Islamophobic when people
0:31
Speaker 1: use that. But that was his birth name. He has
0:36
Speaker 1: an immense amount of controversies going on that he's tried
0:39
Speaker 1: to hide from. And one of the ones that came
0:43
Speaker 1: up all the time are his family ties. Scrutiny has
0:48
Speaker 1: intensified over the last few weeks. After resurfaced 2012 social
0:56
Speaker 1: media posts from Al-Sayed's half-sister, University of Chicago professor Iman
1:02
Speaker 1: Abdel Hadi, stated that their mother had been active in
1:07
Speaker 1: the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt during the early 1970s. Now,
1:13
Speaker 1: over and over and over again, Al-Sayed has deflected on
1:18
Speaker 1: that question. He never said yes or no. He was
1:23
Speaker 1: saying that is beneath this process that we're even talking
1:27
Speaker 1: about my sister from a decade ago and what she wrote.
1:32
Speaker 1: But it is lived on. And now finally, he has, yes,
1:37
Speaker 1: admitted to this, saying it had nothing to do with him.
1:42
Speaker 1: But yes, his family did have ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.
1:46
Speaker 1: This is the latest in a string of controversies surrounding
1:51
Speaker 1: this guy. And listen, when you go to the polls,
1:54
Speaker 1: he's up three, on average, up three. When you go
1:57
Speaker 1: to the prediction markets, it's even worse than that. On PolyMarket, 80%
2:01
Speaker 1: say he's going to win. I'm going to tell you now,
2:04
Speaker 1: he's not winning. This is all turning in the last
2:08
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I've seen this before. You've seen this before.
2:13
Speaker 2: When the.
2:14
Speaker 1: When all the momentum starts to go against him, and
2:17
Speaker 1: by the way, the Republicans are pouring in tens of
2:22
Speaker 1: millions of dollars for the ads over the last few weeks. Look,
2:26
Speaker 1: there's even Democrats that will not support him. Josh Gottheimer
2:30
Speaker 1: here says, I will never, ever vote for Abdul El-Sayed, ever.
2:39
Speaker 1: And Fetterman's come out against him as well, said there's
2:42
Speaker 1: no way that I will side with him. I don't
2:45
Speaker 1: even want to have a discussion with him. And so
2:47
Speaker 1: there are Democrats that don't want him. Listen, I think that,
2:52
Speaker 1: you know, you look at the early voting in Michigan
2:54
Speaker 1: right now, and it's mostly Democratic. I can promise you
2:57
Speaker 1: that many of those Democrats are not voting for this man.
3:01
Speaker 1: And I don't care what the polls say, and I'm
3:04
Speaker 1: more interested in the polls in the next week to
3:06
Speaker 1: see what happens because there's been a lot of controversy. But, Curtis,
3:10
Speaker 1: I don't think he's winning this election.
3:11
Speaker 3: Well, remember, in the Democratic primary, he was selling the victory. Remember,
3:16
Speaker 3: the last weekend, he took the weekend off to pre-celebrate,
3:20
Speaker 3: and he only won by 1% against Haley Stevens.
3:24
Speaker 2: Remember, boy, that tightened up real quick.
3:27
Speaker 3: So he would need a margin, I would say, about
3:29
Speaker 3: 5 to 6 points. For him to be considered in
3:34
Speaker 3: the lead, because there are a lot of people, they're
3:36
Speaker 3: not going to say, I'm not voting for the guy
3:38
Speaker 3: because he's a Muslim. But a Muslim who, as you mentioned,
3:42
Speaker 3: his mother had ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. This is
3:45
Speaker 3: how he explains it. Yes, she was my biological mother
3:49
Speaker 3: at the age of three. She left my father. She's
3:52
Speaker 3: working in the medical field in St.
3:54
Speaker 2: Louis. I really wasn't raised by her.
3:57
Speaker 3: I was raised by, happens to be, his white stepmother
4:01
Speaker 3: who converted to the Muslim faith in Lansing, married his father.
4:05
Speaker 3: He's been seen with his white grandparents. You know, he's
4:07
Speaker 3: trying to move away. Then just what broke? His sister-in-law
4:12
Speaker 3: was on the federal terrorist watch list when Obama was president.
4:16
Speaker 2: She sued. He was removed.
4:18
Speaker 3: And this comes right before Obama comes into town to
4:21
Speaker 3: barnstorm for him. Then Harris, the president of the United States,
4:26
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, who will be hitting seven states in seven days.
4:30
Speaker 3: The last state will be Michigan. Vance was just there.
4:33
Speaker 3: So you're absolutely right. I think Congressman Rogers is putting
4:38
Speaker 3: all of his attention now to try to solidify ties
4:42
Speaker 3: to Muslim terrorist groups, the Muslim Brotherhood, family members, ancillary members.
4:48
Speaker 3: And so what al-Said has done is he has decided
4:51
Speaker 3: to become JFK. He said, you know, in 1960, a
4:55
Speaker 3: lot of people said JFK will never be loyal to
4:58
Speaker 3: the Constitution. Rather, he'll be loyal to the Pope. And
5:01
Speaker 3: that was true. But it's a lot different than being
5:06
Speaker 3: somehow affiliated with Muslim terrorist organizations. It did have an
5:10
Speaker 3: impact against Kennedy, and it was a very close race,
5:13
Speaker 3: as you know. But still, I don't see the comparison
5:18
Speaker 3: at this point in 2020.
5:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to go way back with FDR, as
5:21
Speaker 1: we've talked about before. Republicans called him a communist as well.
5:26
Speaker 1: And so, listen, it's been used a lot, but in
5:29
Speaker 1: this one, it is sticking. This one is sticking. And
5:33
Speaker 1: one of the ways you know when something is sticking
5:36
Speaker 1: is that other campaigns start using it. It is a
5:40
Speaker 1: national Republican ads where they talk about El-Sayed. They are
5:44
Speaker 1: trying to like they did with Mamdani before and they've stopped.
5:48
Speaker 1: They're trying to make El-Sayed the face of the Democratic
5:51
Speaker 1: Party now. And this is what you're voting for. And
5:54
Speaker 1: they show his face.
5:57
Speaker 3: Well, you know, today I might be able to shed
6:00
Speaker 3: some light on this. Because I go up and speak
6:02
Speaker 3: at Columbia University, simple ride on the one train. And
6:06
Speaker 3: one of the late-breaking stories is because he did attend
6:09
Speaker 3: Columbia University, he just didn't go on for a medical degree.
6:13
Speaker 3: He went towards public health. That's how he got a
6:16
Speaker 3: job in Detroit. That's how he became famous in lower Michigan. Well,
6:21
Speaker 3: apparently he published a paper in the Journal of Immigrant
6:24
Speaker 3: Ministry Health 2011 when he was at Columbia University. talking
6:29
Speaker 3: about how Arabic women should just marry Arabic men because,
6:35
Speaker 3: now get this, children are more likely to be born
6:39
Speaker 3: premature if an Arabic woman were to have children with,
6:43
Speaker 3: let's say, a white, a black, an Asian.
6:46
Speaker 2: I'm like, so I'm going to check it out.
6:48
Speaker 1: This is a guy that insists on being called doctor
6:51
Speaker 1: when he's not a medical doctor. He is amazing. And,
6:55
Speaker 1: of course, Rogers, this is all he's running on right now.
6:58
Speaker 1: Every one of his ads is about El Sayed. It's
7:00
Speaker 1: not about what he's going to do for Michigan. It's
7:02
Speaker 1: about how dangerous it's going to be if he gets in.
7:06
Speaker 1: Every single one of those ads. And by the way,
7:09
Speaker 1: we talked about Fetterman going up against him and Gottheimer
7:11
Speaker 1: going up against him. And other Democrats also have said
7:15
Speaker 1: they can't support him and they are not going to
7:17
Speaker 1: support him, which is really fascinating. But El Sayed has
7:22
Speaker 1: come back at them. El Sayed said about John Fetterman...
7:27
Speaker 1: I'd like to put his head on a pike. Now,
7:29
Speaker 1: somebody that's being accused of being a militant Muslim, should
7:34
Speaker 1: he be talking about putting another man's head on a pike?
7:37
Speaker 2: Of course not.
7:37
Speaker 3: But the big issue for the Democrats, obviously, is Trump,
7:42
Speaker 3: like in every other race.
7:43
Speaker 2: Tariffs are big in Michigan. They've hurt the state hard.
7:47
Speaker 3: And obviously, like everything else, cost of living, affordability and such.
7:51
Speaker 3: But this is a test. for our own AOC, all-out
7:55
Speaker 3: crazy Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She went on a bus trip with
8:00
Speaker 3: him through the conservative-leaning upper peninsula of Michigan.
8:04
Speaker 2: Man, there ain't no progressives up there.
8:08
Speaker 3: And then she did three rallies in Detroit and announced
8:12
Speaker 3: she was taking a million dollars from her campaign fund
8:15
Speaker 3: 17 million she's accumulated and giving it to El-Said. And
8:20
Speaker 3: remember what she said recently? If El-Said can win here,
8:24
Speaker 3: anybody can win anywhere. And I'm thinking she's using this
8:28
Speaker 3: as a litmus test. If El-Said wins, then I think
8:31
Speaker 3: she runs for the Democratic presidential primary.
8:35
Speaker 2: If El-Said loses by.
8:37
Speaker 3: Anywhere from like four to five points to Rogers, then
8:40
Speaker 3: I think she settles on taking Chuck Schumer's position. who
8:44
Speaker 3: she can easily beat. She's already whipping them in the polls.
8:47
Speaker 3: But I think for her, this is a big litmus test.
8:49
Speaker 1: That's interesting, and there's some logic to that, although I
8:53
Speaker 1: will say polls and fundraising are going to be one
8:56
Speaker 1: and two, and I'll put that as number three or four,
8:59
Speaker 1: but If she's doing well in the polls and if
9:03
Speaker 1: she's getting the money and people are supporting her, she's
9:05
Speaker 1: going to run for president.
9:06
Speaker 2: Remember, Larry, she got rid of woke one.
9:08
Speaker 4: Remember?
9:09
Speaker 2: Oh, that was woke one. That was 2020. That was
9:12
Speaker 2: a crazy time. No cops, no prison.
9:16
Speaker 5: No, no, no.
9:17
Speaker 3: Now we're on to woke two. I'd like to hear
9:20
Speaker 3: what's in the platform of woke. Imagine you can just
9:23
Speaker 3: wipe out woke one. You know, it's almost like, remember Zorhan? Oh,
9:28
Speaker 3: none of his tweets mattered until he got sworn in
9:31
Speaker 3: in 2021 to the New York State Assembly.
9:34
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
9:35
Speaker 1: This is modern politics. We've already forgotten everything that Biden did.
9:39
Speaker 1: Now the economy is Donald Trump's fault. Everything that Biden did,
9:43
Speaker 1: everybody he let into the country, all the welfare fraud
9:46
Speaker 1: that said no happening in Minnesota, that started under Biden.
9:50
Speaker 1: Everything's been forgotten. Now it's just the president that's in office.
9:54
Speaker 1: And that's fair, by the way. But still, one last
9:57
Speaker 1: thing about El Sayed. They compare him to Mamdani. Mamdani's likable.
10:03
Speaker 1: This guy's not likable. I mean, this guy always tries
10:06
Speaker 1: to show everybody, including punching down the people in the audience,
10:10
Speaker 1: how smart he is. Mamdani never did that. Mamdani always
10:14
Speaker 1: had that big smile. He was always approachable and likable.
10:17
Speaker 1: This guy is not Mamdani. But boy, as you said,
10:20
Speaker 1: the money pouring in.
10:21
Speaker 3: The second most expensive Senate campaign, $ 500 million in Texas.
10:28
Speaker 3: As you have Tallarico, or as Trump calls him, Talafrico
10:32
Speaker 3: versus Paxton. $ 268 million total in Michigan. And as you
10:37
Speaker 3: pointed out, the money is pouring in as the heavyweights
10:42
Speaker 3: in both parties come in and try to squeeze votes
10:45
Speaker 3: out as early voting will be beginning.
10:48
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, when was the last time you
10:50
Speaker 1: were at a dinner party?
10:52
Speaker 2: Nobody ever invites me to a dinner party.
10:54
Speaker 6: Oh, no.
10:55
Speaker 1: But there's no dinner parties anymore.
10:57
Speaker 2: No, you know why?
10:58
Speaker 3: Because what is he going to get down to? We're
11:00
Speaker 3: discussing politics, and that's the quickest way to break up
11:04
Speaker 3: a dinner party.
11:04
Speaker 1: That's everywhere. We have a no politics rule at all
11:07
Speaker 1: our family gatherings, but we'll find out. We'll give the
11:10
Speaker 1: five reasons why people aren't having dinner parties anymore when
11:15
Speaker 1: we come back. If you don't like the five, you
11:18
Speaker 1: can add as many as you'd like.
11:19
Speaker 2: One that applies to me right here in New York.
11:22
Speaker 2: All right.
11:22
Speaker 1: That's coming up next. When was the last time you
11:25
Speaker 1: were at a dinner party? Natalie, I know what Curtis's
11:30
Speaker 1: answer is going to be, so I'm going to start
11:31
Speaker 1: with you. When was the last time you've been at
11:32
Speaker 1: a dinner party?
11:34
Speaker 7: That wasn't a relative. It's been a while.
11:38
Speaker 8: I would say when the kids were younger and, you know,
11:40
Speaker 8: you're mixed around with parents more because you're always at
11:43
Speaker 8: something a few, you know, a few times. But I
11:47
Speaker 8: haven't hosted one in a long time.
11:49
Speaker 9: Curtis?
11:50
Speaker 1: I'm sure Curtis hosts them all the time.
11:52
Speaker 2: No, no, the apartment is too small. The cats can't go.
11:57
Speaker 3: But anyway, Nancy and I used to go to many
11:59
Speaker 3: dinner parties before the election of 2025. And then when
12:04
Speaker 3: invitations came in after the results of Zoran winning, I said,
12:08
Speaker 3: I'm never going to a dinner party again. I'll explain
12:11
Speaker 3: later on because that's not the main reason.
12:13
Speaker 2: You know, that made me think.
12:15
Speaker 8: I definitely went to more dinner parties before COVID. Then
12:19
Speaker 8: COVID happened.
12:20
Speaker 7: Of course, they ended.
12:21
Speaker 8: And then when we got back to life again, I
12:24
Speaker 8: think people are like, why am I doing those?
12:27
Speaker 1: Funny thing is, I am going to the same amount
12:30
Speaker 1: I've always gone to, which is basically none. But that's
12:34
Speaker 1: by choice. Yes, I do get invited to them. And
12:36
Speaker 1: by the way, the only people that have these dinner
12:39
Speaker 1: parties are people that can hire people to put the
12:42
Speaker 1: dinner party together for them. Nobody else is doing this
12:45
Speaker 1: these days because they're too expensive. That's one of the
12:47
Speaker 1: five reasons, by the way, people aren't having dinner parties anymore.
12:51
Speaker 1: Number one, they're just too tired to host. I get that.
12:56
Speaker 1: That's a really good one.
12:57
Speaker 7: It is work. And I stress out.
13:00
Speaker 8: I stress out when I have people over.
13:02
Speaker 1: That's why I'm saying the people, the only people that
13:04
Speaker 1: have them that I know hire people to put them together.
13:08
Speaker 10: That would be nice.
13:08
Speaker 1: And then they're great. There's people cooking and all that.
13:11
Speaker 1: I know some rich people. I still don't like to
13:14
Speaker 1: go to their dinner party. Oh, I shouldn't say that
13:15
Speaker 1: on the air.
13:16
Speaker 7: You did.
13:19
Speaker 2: Sorry.
13:19
Speaker 1: Number two is expectations are too high. That's a good one.
13:25
Speaker 1: You don't want to be judged by your dinner party
13:28
Speaker 1: after you invite people over to dinner.
13:30
Speaker 2: Oh, I know.
13:31
Speaker 3: A lot of time it's job related, too. So you'd
13:34
Speaker 3: rather be judged based on what you do at work
13:37
Speaker 3: or maybe from home, what you do online, as opposed
13:41
Speaker 3: to be judged by a dinner party that you're either
13:43
Speaker 3: attending or you're hosting.
13:45
Speaker 7: Well, I'll tell anybody. If you want to invite me,
13:47
Speaker 7: I will not judge.
13:47
Speaker 2: I will not judge.
13:51
Speaker 11: I'll be happy to.
13:52
Speaker 1: You like dinner parties?
13:54
Speaker 8: I don't mind going to someone's dinner party, hosting a
13:57
Speaker 8: dinner party. To me, the cleaning beforehand, because I know
14:00
Speaker 8: your wife Dawn is like this. You're like a mad
14:03
Speaker 8: person cleaning the house for like, you know, two days
14:06
Speaker 8: before cooking.
14:08
Speaker 7: Oh, the cleaning after.
14:09
Speaker 1: Only women like dinner parties because they can talk. You
14:13
Speaker 1: guys can chit chat. The guys are sitting hoping there's
14:16
Speaker 1: a game on.
14:17
Speaker 11: Yeah.
14:18
Speaker 1: That they can watch.
14:19
Speaker 2: Exactly.
14:19
Speaker 1: Number three, hosting gets way too expensive.
14:23
Speaker 2: It is.
14:23
Speaker 1: Oh, man, that is very true. There are fewer friends
14:27
Speaker 1: to invite.
14:28
Speaker 7: I'm in that boat right now.
14:30
Speaker 8: I'm at that age where I haven't connected with the
14:34
Speaker 8: friends that I had early on in my life. I've
14:37
Speaker 8: now passed on the friends that I had to have
14:40
Speaker 8: when my kids were younger.
14:41
Speaker 7: Now I'm like, where are my friends?
14:43
Speaker 1: And the fifth reason here is streaming. How about that?
14:47
Speaker 7: Yeah, people rather just stay home.
14:49
Speaker 10: And watch.
14:49
Speaker 1: They don't have to go out. They don't have to
14:51
Speaker 1: go out anymore.
14:52
Speaker 3: They bought these big studio, big screen TVs, you know,
14:56
Speaker 3: home theaters and such.
14:58
Speaker 2: Why go anywhere?
14:59
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you why I and Nancy no longer
15:02
Speaker 3: accept invitations. Because we used to like to go, you know,
15:04
Speaker 3: just hobnob with people, nosh. Ultimately, it's almost like a
15:09
Speaker 3: Larry David skit. I'm sitting there.
15:13
Speaker 2: I'm talking. I'm regaling people in stories. Nothing political.
15:17
Speaker 3: And all of a sudden, Alta Kaka comes up and
15:20
Speaker 3: says to me, now, Curtis, you know, if you dropped
15:23
Speaker 3: out for Cuomo, we wouldn't have this play called Zorhan Mandami.
15:29
Speaker 3: And I'm like, Nancy, let's get the hell out of here.
15:33
Speaker 2: Let's get out of here.
15:34
Speaker 1: You know, they're right.
15:38
Speaker 3: But anyway, so in order to avoid arguments, because you're
15:41
Speaker 3: in an enclosed place, and it's like a Larry David skit,
15:46
Speaker 3: we just don't go any longer.
15:48
Speaker 5: Well, you know what?
15:48
Speaker 8: I have the same problem, but usually somebody will say
15:50
Speaker 8: to me, you know what Larry said or Curtis said today,
15:53
Speaker 8: and I have to defend you guys.
15:55
Speaker 1: That's hell. That was really hell. That's almost impossible. Let's
15:59
Speaker 1: get some talkbacks.
16:00
Speaker 2: This isn't Biden's economy. This is Donald Trump's economy.
16:04
Speaker 1: Donald Trump showed us in the first four months what
16:07
Speaker 1: he could do with our economy.
16:09
Speaker 2: Gas came tumbling down. Food came tumbling down.
16:13
Speaker 12: Everything was down.
16:14
Speaker 2: Then he took us into war, which he could have
16:17
Speaker 2: waited for until after the midterms. This is Donald Trump's economy.
16:21
Speaker 2: Donald Trump did this to the working class. Donald Trump
16:24
Speaker 2: is forcing me to have to sell my home.
16:26
Speaker 1: Are you selling your home? Oh my God, that's horrible.
16:30
Speaker 2: Really?
16:32
Speaker 1: I would love to talk to you more about that.
16:35
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how that works out. Is your mortgage higher?
16:40
Speaker 1: Do you still have a mortgage?
16:41
Speaker 2: Is that the problem? Mortgage rates have shot up, Larry.
16:44
Speaker 1: But a lot of people have their mortgages paid off,
16:47
Speaker 1: and I'm assuming how old he is, so I shouldn't
16:49
Speaker 1: do that.
16:50
Speaker 10: Hey, guys, let's not act surprised. We've been warned about
16:53
Speaker 10: this decades ago. This is Islam's way of trying to
16:58
Speaker 10: take over the world. I think we need a modern-day crusade.
17:03
Speaker 2: Oh, my, oh, no, my.
17:04
Speaker 3: It sounds like Pete Haig says, you know, Christian nationalist crusade. No, no, no, no, no.
17:10
Speaker 3: By the way, we lost the crusades. There were nine crusades.
17:13
Speaker 3: The Muslims won eight of them. I think the Christians
17:16
Speaker 3: only want one of them. Let's not go back to
17:19
Speaker 3: the Crusades.
17:20
Speaker 1: A lot of people feel the same way he does,
17:22
Speaker 1: which is why I think there's a hidden vote in
17:25
Speaker 1: Michigan and El-Sayed is not going to win. Now let's
17:29
Speaker 1: get the news at 7.30 with Daria Albinger.
17:36
Speaker 13: If you call 911 for an ambulance, you probably needed ASAP.
17:41
Speaker 13: New data shows, however, it might take it longer to
17:44
Speaker 13: get to you than it has in recent years.
17:45
Speaker 9: The city's comptroller's office released a report that shows response
17:48
Speaker 9: times for severe medical emergencies is up 41% over the
17:52
Speaker 9: last decade. The average wait time now takes 3 minutes
17:55
Speaker 9: and 50 seconds longer than 10 years ago. The report
17:59
Speaker 9: blames a combo of higher call volume, EMS staffing shortages,
18:02
Speaker 9: and traffic congestion. The report notes that EMS workers' compensation
18:06
Speaker 9: levels are substantially lower than other city first responders and
18:09
Speaker 9: uniformed personnel. I'm Scott Pringle, WOR News.
18:13
Speaker 13: Search continues for a suspect in a deadly subway shooting
18:16
Speaker 13: over the weekend. Police say the victim, Daniel Rodriguez of
18:18
Speaker 13: the Bronx, got into a fight with the suspect on
18:21
Speaker 13: the E-Train platform at West 53rd and 7th Avenue. Early
18:25
Speaker 13: voting begins here Saturday in New York and in New Jersey.
18:29
Speaker 13: And if what is happening across the country is any indication...
18:32
Speaker 13: We could see a lot of people at the polls
18:34
Speaker 13: before Election Day. Early voting is up 61% in Virginia.
18:38
Speaker 13: It's more than doubled in Ohio and in Iowa. The
18:43
Speaker 13: founder of SpaceX is giving away a big part of
18:46
Speaker 13: his company to benefit every kid in the U.S.
18:49
Speaker 12: Posting on X, Elon Musk said he would give one
18:52
Speaker 12: share of SpaceX stock to every kid in America. There
18:56
Speaker 12: are roughly 72 million people under 18 in the U.S.,
18:59
Speaker 12: and at today's SpaceX valuation, the donation would be worth
19:02
Speaker 12: well over $ 10 billion. No details were given in the
19:07
Speaker 12: short post about how next year's stock distribution would work,
19:10
Speaker 12: but Musk did call it, quote, the first of many.
19:14
Speaker 2: I'm Rory O'Neill.
19:15
Speaker 13: The Giants and the Jets both lost. Next news, 8 o'clock,
19:18
Speaker 13: bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
19:22
Speaker 5: Thanks, Daria.
19:23
Speaker 1: I can see the Jets losing to the Patriots. That
19:26
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense. But the Giants losing to
19:29
Speaker 1: the Saints?
19:30
Speaker 3: Cardiac kids again. Right to the last moments. Every outcome
19:34
Speaker 3: has been the waning moments of the game. Who better
19:38
Speaker 3: than Walter Wolfe to give us a breakdown of next?
19:41
Speaker 3: Cardiac kids once again took us to the last seconds
19:46
Speaker 3: of the football game. The New York Giants versus the
19:51
Speaker 3: New Orleans Saints. And on the line, the sportsmeister extraordinaire,
19:55
Speaker 3: Warner Wolf.
19:55
Speaker 2: Can you break it down for us, Warner?
19:58
Speaker 11: All right, Curtis. It's four straight games that go down
20:01
Speaker 11: to the last play of the game. And despite John
20:04
Speaker 11: Harbaugh's noncommittal comment, You can bet that J.J. McCarthy, Jonathan
20:11
Speaker 11: James McCarthy, a barring injury, not only will start next week,
20:16
Speaker 11: he'll be the quarterback for the rest of the season.
20:19
Speaker 11: And he had no choice at the finish there. You
20:21
Speaker 11: remember it was fourth and one at the Saints 14. Well,
20:27
Speaker 11: they couldn't, you know, just go for the one yard
20:30
Speaker 11: first down because who knows how much time would have
20:33
Speaker 11: been left. They had to go for an end zone.
20:36
Speaker 11: But here's the question I have. What took Harbaugh so
20:40
Speaker 11: long to put McCarthy into the game? He didn't come
20:44
Speaker 11: into the game until the fourth quarter and still threw
20:50
Speaker 11: for 243 yards. So next season, think about this. The
20:56
Speaker 11: Giants will have a situation of Jackson, Dart, and J.J. McCarthy.
21:02
Speaker 11: This is similar to the early 1960s Giants situation who
21:06
Speaker 11: had Charlie Connolly and Y.A.
21:08
Speaker 9: Tittle.
21:09
Speaker 3: And let me ask you a question, Warren. The bowling ball, Scatterboo,
21:13
Speaker 3: you know, it was fun. Oh, yeah. I expect him
21:17
Speaker 3: to be in the lineup next week because they had
21:19
Speaker 3: no running game yesterday.
21:21
Speaker 11: None. None at all. I mean, gosh. And he never,
21:25
Speaker 11: he didn't play. So I guess he was really taking
21:30
Speaker 11: it hard. He should. And that was the penalty for fumbling.
21:35
Speaker 2: He's a fumbler.
21:37
Speaker 11: He can't have a running back that keeps on fumbling.
21:41
Speaker 11: So that was his penalty. And I don't know if
21:45
Speaker 11: he's the coach, and he knows. So that's the way
21:49
Speaker 11: it is. As far as the Jets go, I think
21:51
Speaker 11: you have to forget the Jets. They're 2-4, but look
21:55
Speaker 11: at the schedule. They still have the Vikings, the Broncos,
21:59
Speaker 11: the Chiefs, the Raiders, and the Bills twice. They could
22:03
Speaker 11: lose all six of those games the way they're playing
22:06
Speaker 11: and finish 6-11. That's what I look at. And by
22:10
Speaker 11: the way, here's why the NFL doesn't like the gamblers,
22:16
Speaker 11: the heavy hitters, coming in early. The Eagles were point-and-a-half
22:22
Speaker 11: favorite over Carolina before it became public that Jalen Hurts
22:28
Speaker 11: wouldn't play because of the blood clot. So then the
22:32
Speaker 11: gamblers find out first, and they make Carolina a three-and-a-half point.
22:38
Speaker 11: Here they're a point-and-a-half underdog, a favorite. Eagles were a
22:42
Speaker 11: point-and-a-half favorite, and the gamblers are, no, wait a minute.
22:45
Speaker 11: We know Hertz is not playing. So Carolina became a
22:49
Speaker 11: three-and-a-half point favorite. So here's what you did. If you
22:54
Speaker 11: took the Eagles and gave a point-and-a-half early and then
22:58
Speaker 11: took Carolina... and gave three and a half, you won
23:03
Speaker 11: both bets because Carolina won by 11 points. And let
23:08
Speaker 11: me ask you a question. What's going on with these
23:11
Speaker 11: college football officials? That's at least three games involving major
23:16
Speaker 11: teams where the on-field referees said the game was over
23:21
Speaker 11: when there was really one second left. And then there was,
23:24
Speaker 11: remember the Michigan game, there was no time left. They
23:27
Speaker 11: gave them a second to play and they won the game.
23:31
Speaker 11: So Saturday, Notre Dame-BYU, there was one second left. The
23:37
Speaker 11: clock showed it. The replay showed it. The game was
23:42
Speaker 11: Notre Dame had the ball to BYU 8, and the
23:45
Speaker 11: referee said the game was over.
23:47
Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you a question, Warner. Were the
23:49
Speaker 2: referees Mormon?
23:52
Speaker 11: Oh, that's good. Oh, you got a bell. Well, you
23:59
Speaker 11: know what, you... You've got to change the rule. Don't
24:03
Speaker 11: let the teams leave the field until all videotapes have
24:08
Speaker 11: been reviewed. Also, maybe how about start fining or even
24:12
Speaker 11: firing the officials. You know, that's big money, college football.
24:17
Speaker 11: And speaking of college football, did you see that next
24:21
Speaker 11: season you're going to have not 12 teams in the playoffs,
24:25
Speaker 11: 24 playoff teams. 24, man, you're talking about watering down
24:31
Speaker 11: a product. Come on, bring in those mediocre 7-5 and
24:37
Speaker 11: 8-4 teams. Man, I'll tell you, if you can't make
24:40
Speaker 11: the playoffs with 24 teams, you really are bad. All right, baseball. Now,
24:48
Speaker 11: if the big money Dodgers were a radio station, and
24:53
Speaker 11: they spent $ 200 million more than their main competitive radio station,
25:00
Speaker 11: and the other station beat you in the ratings, your
25:03
Speaker 11: stockholders would clean house and maybe try and hire some
25:07
Speaker 11: personnel from the other station. Well, while the small market
25:13
Speaker 11: and small payroll teams like Milwaukee, Cleveland, and Tampa are
25:17
Speaker 11: all still in the playoffs, all the World Series teams
25:21
Speaker 11: The owners of the wealthy Dodgers, Mets, Yanks, and Phillies
25:26
Speaker 11: are sitting home counting their money and sucking their thumbs. Boy,
25:31
Speaker 11: I'll tell you.
25:32
Speaker 2: You know, Warner, one quick note. That happened in radio.
25:37
Speaker 3: You had Wolfman Jack at night on NBC versus Cousin
25:41
Speaker 3: Brucie at WABC spinning stacks of wax six nights a week.
25:46
Speaker 3: Wolfman Jack lost the ratings left. And NBC, then their
25:51
Speaker 3: board said, go hire Cousin Brucie.
25:53
Speaker 2: And they did.
25:53
Speaker 11: That's it. That's the way to do it. Wolfman Jack.
25:58
Speaker 11: Do you know my father's real name? First name was Jack.
26:02
Speaker 11: He was Jack Wolf, so... Kids used to call me
26:06
Speaker 11: Wolfman Jack. Anyway, here's the Bull of the Week. Man,
26:11
Speaker 11: to me, this is terrible. It goes to the transgender
26:15
Speaker 11: Washington State high school runner who came in 76th against
26:22
Speaker 11: other male runners. Then he comes back three weeks later
26:27
Speaker 11: He says, give me some women runners. He ran against
26:30
Speaker 11: all female runners and came in first in a meet.
26:34
Speaker 11: You know, I don't care what you say, what you do,
26:38
Speaker 11: how you dress, how you act. You are a stronger
26:42
Speaker 11: male body. That's all there is to it. Hey, what's next?
26:48
Speaker 11: Does this guy want to race against old men like me?
26:56
Speaker 11: This is a farce.
26:57
Speaker 1: No, it's horrible. I don't understand why it's still legal,
27:00
Speaker 1: to tell you the truth. I don't get it at all.
27:03
Speaker 1: And most Americans feel that way, too. It's just one
27:06
Speaker 1: party that wants it.
27:08
Speaker 6: Yeah.
27:09
Speaker 11: Oh, now you both. Maybe even Natalie is old enough
27:13
Speaker 11: to remember this. I know you two guys are.
27:17
Speaker 1: Oh, come on.
27:19
Speaker 11: 49 years ago. 49 years ago yesterday, October 18, 1977,
27:22
Speaker 11: Reggie Jackson hit three home runs on the first pitch
27:29
Speaker 11: from three different pitchers. And that was game six of
27:33
Speaker 11: the World Series, and the Yankees beat the Dodgers four
27:36
Speaker 11: games to two. You remember that, right?
27:38
Speaker 3: Oh, I remember Howard Cosell was pointing to the rear
27:42
Speaker 3: where he grew up on Grand Concourse. There's a building
27:45
Speaker 3: on fire and George Steinbrenner Sr. wants to move to
27:49
Speaker 3: the Meadowlands? The freaking Meadowlands where they only buried garbage
27:55
Speaker 3: and dead bodies of organized crime?
27:57
Speaker 2: Say it ain't so, Howard Cosell. But anyway, on that note, Warner,
28:03
Speaker 2: it's time for us to bid you adieu. Same time,
28:07
Speaker 2: same place next week.
28:09
Speaker 11: Enchanté.
28:10
Speaker 3: Yes, well, you know, France is burning, so I figure
28:13
Speaker 3: France is in the news.
28:15
Speaker 2: We would do adieu to you. Thank you. Thank you, Warner.
28:18
Speaker 11: All right, thank you.
28:20
Speaker 3: And up next, Natalie Migliore is down in the streets
28:23
Speaker 3: assessing New Yorkers' response to the shooting at the subway
28:27
Speaker 3: station over the weekend of 53rd and 7th, which is
28:30
Speaker 3: just blocks from where we broadcast.
28:33
Speaker 5: Leaf.
28:34
Speaker 3: Now, it's 710WOR Speed on the Street with Natalie Migliore.
28:41
Speaker 3: Natalie Migliore, a lot of people here at iHeart, including
28:44
Speaker 3: most of us, used that subway station, 53rd and 7th,
28:48
Speaker 3: where that man was shot and killed about 12 noon
28:51
Speaker 3: on Saturday. What were the responses of people out in
28:54
Speaker 3: the street just a few hundred feet away from that station?
28:58
Speaker 14: Yeah, well, it's now been a little bit more than
29:00
Speaker 14: 36 hours, I think, since 26-year-old Daryl Rodriguez was shot
29:04
Speaker 14: and killed at the Midtown subway station. Really just blocks
29:08
Speaker 14: away from our office, as you guys were saying. The
29:10
Speaker 14: station is busy this morning, not just with commuters going
29:14
Speaker 14: in and out, but with the media's bright lights and
29:16
Speaker 14: cameramen and, of course, me stalking people down to see
29:20
Speaker 14: what they.
29:20
Speaker 7: Think about this.
29:22
Speaker 14: No matter how much we've covered it this weekend, though,
29:25
Speaker 14: it really did take over the headlines. It's still the
29:27
Speaker 14: first time some people heard about this weekend's violence at
29:31
Speaker 14: the 53rd Street BDE station with the shooting happening on
29:36
Speaker 14: the E Uptown platform.
29:38
Speaker 7: So what are New Yorkers?
29:40
Speaker 1: Thinking not much new york it's gonna happen.
29:43
Speaker 6: That's unbelievable i'm saying a lot of things going on
29:46
Speaker 6: now and then let's see what happens so i hope
29:48
Speaker 6: they find whoever did it.
29:50
Speaker 5: That's crazy well there's a lot of people in new
29:52
Speaker 5: york but they'll find them you know new york is
29:54
Speaker 5: good cops are good It's.
29:55
Speaker 4: Very hard for all of us, but we travel on
29:58
Speaker 4: the train every day. Very hard to know something like
30:01
Speaker 4: that can happen to any one of us.
30:04
Speaker 8: It's not just about being a woman or something.
30:07
Speaker 1: It's just anyone doesn't feel safe anymore.
30:09
Speaker 2: How do you call it?
30:11
Speaker 8: Worry?
30:11
Speaker 6: Because a lot of people come and travel at this
30:14
Speaker 6: time to go to work and whatever not, and a
30:16
Speaker 6: lot of people are here doing wrong things, especially if
30:20
Speaker 6: somebody got shot, you said?
30:21
Speaker 14: That's what I said. Somebody got shot and they died.
30:25
Speaker 14: Now investigators are calling it a targeted shooting after Rodriguez
30:29
Speaker 14: was shot in the chest during an argument. Cops have
30:33
Speaker 14: released images of this suspect who's wearing a mask. But
30:36
Speaker 14: does a subway shooting in broad daylight in the middle
30:39
Speaker 14: of Manhattan on a Saturday surprise people in this area?
30:43
Speaker 2: I would say yes, because it never happened before.
30:46
Speaker 5: A lot of tourists around here. It's a nice area.
30:48
Speaker 5: Not too much of that kind of stuff goes on, so.
30:51
Speaker 2: I don't know.
30:52
Speaker 1: You know, listen, more is out there.
30:54
Speaker 2: This has gone on forever.
30:56
Speaker 1: But now because of social media and phones, it's just
30:59
Speaker 1: more in your face. So you got to know your
31:02
Speaker 1: situation and your places and do what's best for you
31:05
Speaker 1: at the same time.
31:06
Speaker 14: Now, transit advocates are calling for a ban on face
31:10
Speaker 14: coverings in New York City's subway system.
31:14
Speaker 7: Some New Yorkers are just like, how about more cops?
31:17
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm a native New Yorker, so you kind
31:19
Speaker 5: of get numb to it sometimes but i've always wanted
31:23
Speaker 5: police officers in each train i sent like an email
31:26
Speaker 5: to the mayor's office that this is something they should
31:28
Speaker 5: look into because i know he's proactive in his social
31:31
Speaker 5: media stuff so let's see what happens no.
31:34
Speaker 4: I don't see much of them on the subway i'm
31:36
Speaker 4: coming from jamaica and up to now i haven't seen
31:39
Speaker 4: one this.
31:39
Speaker 2: Morning no if there was more of them around it
31:41
Speaker 2: would be less.
31:42
Speaker 6: Of this because when they see the authority around i'm
31:45
Speaker 6: assuming they think twice.
31:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, you never see them on the moving trains. They
31:49
Speaker 3: don't go from car to car like they used to.
31:52
Speaker 3: They're stationary on a platform, normally in twos, checking their
31:56
Speaker 3: social media updates, sexting and texting one another.
32:02
Speaker 2: I have no idea who they're communicating with.
32:04
Speaker 14: I was on an Uptown 6 train this weekend, and
32:09
Speaker 14: we were stopped so that the NYPD could do a
32:13
Speaker 14: security check, but they didn't get on the train and
32:17
Speaker 14: move with us.
32:18
Speaker 2: They looked in, right?
32:19
Speaker 5: Correct.
32:19
Speaker 2: What does that do?
32:21
Speaker 14: I don't... I actually was wondering if there was somebody
32:25
Speaker 14: of interest who they were looking for that they then
32:28
Speaker 14: poke their head in and say, okay, we're good to go.
32:31
Speaker 14: But there's definitely not, you don't see it as much as,
32:36
Speaker 14: it's been a while since I've been on the train
32:38
Speaker 14: with a police officer physically riding.
32:41
Speaker 7: With me on the train.
32:42
Speaker 1: How often do you take the subway?
32:44
Speaker 7: Pretty often.
32:44
Speaker 2: Really?
32:45
Speaker 14: Yeah, about, I would say maybe five, six times a week.
32:50
Speaker 14: I mean, for somebody- I drive into the city, you know,
32:53
Speaker 14: but we have to get around to cover stories.
32:55
Speaker 7: So I'm jumping on the subway all the time.
32:57
Speaker 1: How often do you see a police officer?
33:00
Speaker 7: That's a tough question. You know, Columbus, Columbus circle. I
33:05
Speaker 7: see them a lot.
33:06
Speaker 14: I typically get off around six o'clock in the evenings
33:09
Speaker 14: and I'll see a couple of more police officers are
33:12
Speaker 14: in typical, typical, but if you're on the one on
33:14
Speaker 14: like at the 18th street station, it's like a one-off
33:17
Speaker 14: random station.
33:18
Speaker 7: And, and, I don't see them.
33:21
Speaker 3: Forget about it. The reason you see them in Columbus Circle,
33:24
Speaker 3: the transit police precinct is there. By the way, shout
33:28
Speaker 3: out to Philly and SEPTA. You were there recently. I
33:31
Speaker 3: was there talking to SEPTA people. You can't wear a
33:35
Speaker 3: mask in SEPTA anymore. That's their subway system or on
33:38
Speaker 3: their buses. Can't wear it any longer unless you have
33:40
Speaker 3: a medical or religious permission slip.
33:44
Speaker 2: That's what we have to do here.
33:45
Speaker 7: Right, and that's the new push.
33:47
Speaker 14: That's what this weekend's shooting has gotten advocates, transit advocates,
33:50
Speaker 14: that's what they want to see.
33:52
Speaker 3: Well, Natalie Migliore, you'll be back tomorrow, same time, same place.
33:56
Speaker 3: Hopefully a little Nick Mania at 7.50.
34:00
Speaker 7: Good news.
