Highlights of Curtis & Larry · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Well, the World Cup is over the most successful World
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Cup in history. Of course they did play more games,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: but they had over six million people in attendance. That's
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: double the last. The biggest one other than this one
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: was also in the United States in nineteen ninety four.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: It was three million, eight hundred thousand. This was well
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: over six millions. So it's in the books. It is
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: successful if you watched it. Now, there's two points of
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: view on this. There's a lot of people that didn't
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: like it because there was no score for the longest time.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: I found it exhilarating. I thought there was tension constantly
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: as you were waiting for somebody to score, and Spain
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: got so many shots on goal that it was you
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: always thought they were going to score. You were always
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: on the edge of your seat. Natalie, you're a big
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: soccer fan. I'm not going to go to Curtis yet
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: because he's not a big.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Soccer fan, but he's a happy guy to he's gonna done.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: You know what's gonna happen. He's gonna dump all over this.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: But did you find it exciting?
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: You know, I was a really good game. I enjoyed it.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: I wish it was better because I thought Argentina just
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: wasn't there and if they played a little bit better,
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: probably would have been more exciting.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: But since I was rooting for Spain, well, you.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: Know, good game.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: This is what Spain does. They controlled the ball.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: They controlled the whole game.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: You know, they didn't have a shot on goal for
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: the entire game Argentina.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: And I mean Spain was sixteen or something. So yeah,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: it was a great game. And you know what I felt,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: the tension when we were in extra time, where you
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: just kept going, oh no, not penalties, please don't let
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: it go to penalty shots.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: I hate that.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I actually think penalty shots, thank god. Yeah, but I
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: thought it was more exciting when it went over two.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Oh it did, absolutely, because any moment it could turn,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: any moment it could be different.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: And I liked the halftime act, even though everybody was
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: dumping all over that. I like the halftime. I know
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: he's over there, he's the curmudgeon. He's just he's in
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the quarter. He's like, he's like Uncle Steve in the
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: quarter that's complaining about the complaining about the corn beef.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Something you must have liked.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: You just made the argument of what a boring.
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: Game it was with Messi in the lineup and the
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: Argentines who had come back time and time again. The
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: goalie from Spain received the Goalkeeper's Award for the tournament,
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: even though in the final he didn't make one save.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: This would be the equivalent of a hockey game which
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: has off sides all the time, same same as Sokker,
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: in which a goalie on the other team didn't make
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: one save.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: I know this was so boring.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: But if you look on the reverse the other goalie,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: he was incredible.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I mean the saves this guy and it was coming
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: one after the other to the other he was that
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: was You didn't set a record.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I think he set a record for the World Cup.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: I know, I don't know, but he could have and
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: he was incredible.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: Lifted. You're trying to make lemonade out of elemon Come on.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: I enjoy soccer. I am not embarrassed by it.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: But I think most Americans they want they want to
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: see offense. That's what Americans.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: The thing is, they kept shooting on goal Spain and
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: you were going, oh, here it is, and every single
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: time it wasn't, and I think it added to the tension. Look,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not a soccer fan. I'll be the first to
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: admit I'm not a soccer fan. I have watched very
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: little of the World Cup, just the USA Games. This
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: one kept me on the edge of my seat. I
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: loved it. I really liked it.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: I am so happy it's over. Pack your bags, go home.
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: I want my city back. I want normalcy to return,
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: and I want us to get back to who we
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: are Americans, which is smash mouth football, baseball, basketball, those
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: are our sports. Look, we're on the peripheria soccer. We're
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: never going to compete with these other teams. They went
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: from their birth right. Who is that guy you know
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: from Spain?
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: Who MESSI apparently had held bathed when he was a baby.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: His father was fifteen, his mother was sixteen. The moment
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: he was birthed. Yeah, he was kicking a soccer ball.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: Americans don't do that. The Americans don't do that. It's
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: it's an activity that they play in grade school, junior
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: high school, high school because everybody gets to play. But
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: pretty much after that it begins to to win.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: The system is different here.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: We don't you know, we don't have the same system
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: set up as they do in other parts of the world.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: But yet USA keeps getting better and better. I mean,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: and that they were exciting too. I thought the whole
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: thing was an enormous success. Oh what about the halftime show?
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Oh my god?
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Could it be any worse?
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Thoughts?
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: I like the halftime show? I didn't. I will admit
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I didn't see all of it. I tuned in for
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: BTS and I rolled my eyes at them. But I
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: love Shakira, I love Justin Bieber. I love the ending
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: with the muppets and the kids and christ Molton PS.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Twenty two shout out to Staten Island. Those kids are
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: the best. That is the best choir. The person who
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: leads that choir has done such an incredible job fourth
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: and fifth graders.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Could you imagine that experience? Unbelievable?
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: Could they shove any more action into an eleven minute showcase?
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Come on?
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: I agree?
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: What was that BLT? What was that BLT? Bacon lettership
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: from the ts? Oh my god, what dude? Thirty seconds
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: are off the stage? Thirty seconds? It's like t that
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: would never have passed Muster at a halftime show with
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: a Super Bowl you know that.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it did get a lot of heat. A lot
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: of people thought it was boring. I wasn't that thrilled
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: with it. I didn't feel like anything connected. I didn't
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: think I think, like you said, it was an act
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: and then somebody else came. I didn't feel there was
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: any any cohesiveness to a storyline, and if there was,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: I missed it.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I liked the ted Lasso a period.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: I didn't understand that.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I thought it was pretty cool he coached Bieber before
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: he went out there.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Why was Tom Cruise there at the beginning. I wasn't
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: sure about that.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Well, that's to keep the scientologist watch and plush.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: You know you were a fan of I guess he
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: wants to be Bob Dylan. Now, oh justin Bieber Biber whatever,
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: what a downer?
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: What a down It's like, Oh my god.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I thought it wasn't a down the song, But I
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: just think it's because he played solo. I took. I
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: think that took a lot of guts. Could imagine getting
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: up in front of eighty thousand people with gesture guitar,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: walking around the walking around the grass. I've never seen
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: that before. I thought he pulled it off.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: I liked it as much as I hate his fake phony,
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: fraudulent football.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: They spell with you. Kickball, kickball goal. Oh that's right,
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: we only had one goal. You couldn't even use that.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: It's like, this doesn't happen with soccer's played around the world.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: A halftime show. This was all for America hydration, all
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: for America to get in advertising on television. So please
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: let them keep their game. Go back to their home countries.
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: They could play soccer morning, noon, and night. Let's get
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: back to what Americans the best known.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Can we talk about the World Cup weather miracle that
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: happened yesterday?
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: That was to me, the entire week could not have
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: been worse. We had smoke, we had heat, we had
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: torrential rains, and then Sunday it was like the gods
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: came out and said the World Cup is going to
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: be perfect.
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: Well, there's one God, and he likes soccer. Now now
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: we're making references to God. Do you realize the rest
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: of the world does not believe in the one God?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Syndrome doesn't matter what the rest of the world.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: They're the ones who played soccer.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Well we do now too. America did very well and
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: they keep getting better every single years.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: They didn't even make the final sixth Larry.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: They played well, they played very well.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: I job Bosnia hers to Goovia. You can't even find
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: it on a map. Australia.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: What do you like? Exactly like you don't like the joy?
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: It was one thing I liked.
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: There was one thing I liked because I watched everything
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: late at night because I was out with my wife
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: Nancy and my oldest son Anthony. We were walking around
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: green Point and Williamsburg mccaren Park. This is where Nancy
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: had grown up. She was like visiting all the places
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: she grew up. And actually all the young people in
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: the bars wearing either Spanish garb or Argentine garb, even
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: though most of them had no affiliation with those countries,
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: but they knock yourself out.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: I liked the fact that at the end when they
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: gave out the medals and the recognition, everyone respected our
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: president because there were thoughts and especially the Spaniards Mike
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: diss and dismiss President Trump who was in the receiving
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: line left next to the FIFA president, Uh, just not
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: shake his hand and just walk past him.
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: Luckily that did not happen.
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: So the final of the recognition of everybody that they
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: taught did great, wonderful went off without a hitch.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: Nobody dished our present.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: It weren't booze from the crowd, you know, from all
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: these foreigners.
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: So to me, that was the only good thing.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: Although I didn't hear I didn't hear our national anthem.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't see everything, so I don't know if it
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: was not played, but I'd be shocked if it wasn't.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure it was.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: But it odd that if it was a national anthem,
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: that it didn't make airtime.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, it was great for America. This
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: was great for America. We showed off what we can do.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: We changed minds all around the world. People want to
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: come back. It's going to be great for tourism. It
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: was wonderful whether you whether you personally liked it or not,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: it was still wonderful for the country and the city.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: We don't have made a lot of money on it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: We don't have the bills yet.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: Well let's wait to see the plus versus the minus.
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: Because we don't have any invoices for all the bills.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: We'll have to preclude that. Now, by the way, how
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: can people participate.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: It's just gonna say talkback if you want to I
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: want to tell us how you felt about the World Cup.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Go to the iHeartRadio app and leave us a talkback.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: You could win a courteously and Larry Menti in the
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Morning T shirt that's going to be awarded every day
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to our favorite talk back of the morning. And while
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: you're on the free iHeartRadio WIP, why not go ahead
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: and set a preset for seven to ten wor so
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: it's easier for you every other time. And don't forget
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the best talkback of the week takes on the Sea
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Crane Radio. Sea crane radios that work when it matters
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: most meantime.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: At Jacob Javitt Center all weekend long, they had the
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: fanatics gathering all the sports, the heroes of people and
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: genuine bruns. Mister New York did something that some people
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: might have said. It was like Bill Russell and Kareem
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: Abdul I wouldn't sign an autograph, but there was.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: A reason excess such. The conversation continues Curtis.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Leewa and Larry Mantez w R.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: All right, now time for the legendary Warner Wolf and
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: thank you Warner. You can be the tiebreaker here because
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: we were talking about the World Cup and Curtis just
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: can't stand it. Thinks it's dull, thought it was boring,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: can't wait for it to leave. I'm not a big
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: soccer fan, but I was riveted by it. I thought
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: it even though there were no goals, I thought it
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: was exciting.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Cause, man, you.
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: Must be riveted by everything. An hour and a half regulation,
• 11:41
  Speaker 6: no goals. If you missed the entire regulation, you didn't
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: miss anything. Wait a minute, Argentina had no shots on
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: goal none. That means Spain could have played without a goalie.
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: No shots from goals. You gotta be kidding. I'll tell
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: you what else I didn't watch yesterday on TV. Golf, UFC,
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: boxing and auto racing. Well, they never make never make
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: a right turn.
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: Now, now, one thing you focused on is good sportsmanship,
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: no matter what the sport. And towards the end of
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: the match between the Argentines in Spain, some of the
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: Argentina players were brawling on the field. They wouldn't do
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: the postgame interviews, you know, like a little cryberry bees,
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: including MESSI, because they're sore losers.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: I hate that. They had no reason to be sore losers.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: They got killed on that pitch Warner.
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: Well maybe they don't speak English. Say what about the football, Curtis,
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: the real football? You know, no matter what you've done
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: in the NFL, they'll sign you. I mean, look at
• 12:59
  Speaker 6: this Terry on Arnold. You gotta be kidding. I want
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: to see if somebody signs him. My gosh, kidnapping and
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: I mean kid him. Well, look, you shouldn't be surprised.
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: Look at ray Lewis. Remember that, Oh continue to play
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: play play for the Ravens thirteen years after being charged
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: with double murder and he settled out of court with
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: the deceased family, and he was also charged and convicted
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: of obstruction of justice. Oh man, I mean this is
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: that's the NFL, some people say. And oh, by the way,
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: Stefan Diggs is still a free agency right now. So
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: but some people say, instead of the NFL standing for
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: the National Football League, it should stand for the National
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: Felons League.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: Correct.
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: And there was a time, Warner, where you would indicate
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: every Cincinnati active Bengal oh.
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, with Curtis and Kooby, that's.
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: Right, And you would talk about how many of them
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: had bracelets on their ankles because they were under.
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: The introductions, right, instead of the numbers, we list their crimes.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, and it went on and on. But let me
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: talk about Medlife Stadium.
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: Now that we got MetLife Stadium back, we don't have
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: to call it New York New Jersey Stadium. Oofah fifa.
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: But the Jets are depending on Geno Smith this season.
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: I mean he's been with us before, done right, he's
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: been with us before. It did great with Seattle, did
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: horrible with Las Vegas Raiders. But he's involved in all
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: kinds of mama drama down in Florida where he lives.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: He's had speeding violations.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: You know what I would say.
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: What I would say to uh, the owners and operators
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: of the Jets, get him to live up here near
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: MetLife Stadium and get him that the hell out of
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: that mama drama that's plaguing him in Florida.
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: Well, we don't want him no. Oh. By the way,
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: you're talking about quarterbacks, You see that ESPN came out
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: with their greatest one hundred NFL quarterbacks of all time.
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: And by the way, they also said that the Bears
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: Khaleb Williams was the best active quarterback today. You're gotta
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: be kidding, man. If I need a touchdown or a
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: field goal with two minutes to go, it's either Patrick
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: Mahomes or Josh Allen. It's not Khaleib Williams. But as
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: far as this all time passed quarterbacks, you know, it
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: depends on what city you're from and what era did
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: he play. Okay, so they say Tom Brady is the greatest. Well, yeah,
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: especially if you're from New England. But let me tell
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: you something. If you're from Baltimore in nineteen fifties and sixties,
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: there's only one guy, Johnny Unitas. And if you were
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: from San Francisco, Joe Montana is the greatest of all time.
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: Pittsburgh it would be Terry Bradshaw or Washington, Sonny Jurgensen,
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: Sammy Ball before him. And if you're from Cleveland, there
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: was no better quarterback than Otto Graham, who played ten years,
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: five in the AFL and five in the NFL, and
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: he was in championship game in all ten years. You know,
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: you can't don't give us that here's the greatest quarterback. No, no,
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: I don't bother by the way. You know, the rules
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: have changed, especially roughing the passer. I once asked Johnny
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: and Iidas who got mugged all the time because they
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: didn't call roughing the passer. I asked him about today's game,
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: and he said, when are the quarterbacks going to start
• 16:52
  Speaker 6: wearing dresses? Yeah? I mean that's the way it was.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Hey, you know, hey, real quick, I'm looking up and
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: down this list. You mentioned Terry Bradshaw. I don't see
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: him in the top one hundred. I mean the number
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: one job of a quarterback is the win, right, Yeah.
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: From Pittsburgh, I mean for super Bowls, that's it. He's
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: the greatest quarterback of all time if you're from Pittsburgh,
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: hands down, period. And I don't know these guys. You
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: got to get these voters out of there, get them out,
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: wake them up. So and I'm about the stooge of
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: the week man the commissioner the w NBA, Kathy Engelbert.
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: Remember she didn't find or suspend Allison Thomas for punching
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: Caitlin Clark in the throat. Well, we now now find
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: out that Engelhart apparently received a phone call from NBA
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: Commissioner Adam Silver, who told him told her told her
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: Engelhart to do. So that's all there is to it.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: I mean, what did Thomas have to do choke Clark
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: to get at least a foul.
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: Oh man, man, I'm telling you wanna the WNBA. She
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: is the goose that laid the golden egg. And some
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: of these players are going out of their way to
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: destroy their income, to destroy all the eyeballs they get
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: every time that Caitlin Clark cats on the hardwood.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: But the league has to do something too. The league
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: has to step in here.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: Yeah, she's their meal to She's the w NBA meal
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: ticket for the other players, and they just don't get it.
• 18:32
  Speaker 6: And hey, real quick man, how about that All Star
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: Game and the home run Hitting contest last week? Both bogus?
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: Oh man, you know you had the sixty three year
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: old father throwing meatballs down the middle rice All Star
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: Game twenty seven straightouts. You know what, I would take
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: the All Star Game off TV and show highlights of
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: games of the past, like you know, Demago and Mays
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: and Mantle and Jackie Robinson, Ted Williams aeron, and show
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: the kids how the game should.
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: Be played right, or just go to the old home
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: run baseball man, where you'd see two of the best
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: who would.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Team off on one another. But anyway, Warner.
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: It's time for us to say bye bye, same time,
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: same place, next week.
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: Warner Wolf up next.
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: Remember that song Pallas h Park Swings all day and
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: after Dark was done by Freddie Cannon. Unfortunately he's passed away.
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: Curtis and Learry Linty in the morning wr the Voice
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: of New York. I was happy to see at the
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: end of the World Cup the leaders of the three
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: North American countries hosting it were on the stage when
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: the medals were being given out of MetLife the President,
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: the President of Mexico, and the Minister Mark Carney of
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: Canada all getting along splendidly. I was happy to see
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: that members of both Argentine and the winning Spanish group
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: shook the hands of our president and all the presidents
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: who were the hosts.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: It was good.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: But this came on the heels of a day before
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: when the President of the United States, on his way
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: to Bedminster, stated that he wanted to impose tariffs on
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: Canada because of the forest fires that had drifted down
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: to the United States. For a second time, it happened
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: back in twenty twenty three, and it happened again. As
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: many of you experience, the stench and the haze for
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: more than three days. But even though there were some
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: Republicans on the border states who wanted some kind of
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: action taken against Canada, I don't think the president nor
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: these border state reps, these republicans understand Canada is larger
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: than the United States. The only country larger is Russia,
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: only has forty million people. And at half of Canada's wildfires,
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: as you had mentioned, Larry, when we discussed this on Friday,
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: are in remote areas when no road access whatsoever, and
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: at this point it is impossible to fight, and they
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: often have to leave them to burn. So even though
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: you might be able to put those water bombers over them,
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: the planes that drop the water, but you can't get
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: boots on the ground to put those fires out. And
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: a lot of those fires are lightning fires, what they
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: call dry lightning fires, So if you can't get to
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: it within thirty minutes, then it gets larger and larger
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: and larger. So instead of looking to fellow Canadians north
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: of the border and blaming them for this, we got
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: to come up with a consolidated plan because, as the
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Canadians have said, warmer weather means longer fire seasons. We
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: all know there's some form of climate change going on.
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: We're experiencing higher temperatures ourselves as they are and before
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: in Canada, the history says they used to.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: Have a short hot season. Now they're getting longer.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: And half of the Canadian wildfires are caused by this lightning,
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: which is not preceded or followed by rain. It's just
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: the lightning hits. We've seen pictures of that. Before the
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: smoke begins to move into the atmosphere, then you see
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: the fire, then the fire rags and again, as I said,
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: if you can't get to that fire within thirty minutes,
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: it becomes an inferno. And in the past they've just
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: let those fires burn out. So we need to have
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: a really a three country solution to help one of
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: the Mexico has helped us in California. California's had a
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: lot of fires, Oregon washing it, Canada has helped us.
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: We've helped them. So instead of pointing fingers, we got
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: to know that this is the way it's gonna be
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: from now on. I mean, look at how embarrassing I was.
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: I can't afford to have this taking all of my
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: clothes off outside of my apartment Nancy made me do that,
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: put him in a plastic bag because I really stunk
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: up the joint and it wasn't that I hadn't bathed,
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: it was simply from the stench in the air.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: I am a little upset with the Canadians who just
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: constantly say there's nothing we can do about this, because
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: there is something they can do about it. The number
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: one way to fight and I think that everybody who
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: is with fire departments that fights wildfires, and I've covered
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: them both in California and we absolutely talked to people
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: when they had those horrible wildfires in New Jersey, the
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: number one thing they will all say, or containment lines.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: You've got to contain the fire. That's the number one thing.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Let it burn out, but don't let it spread. And
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: the problem is with what you just talked about in
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: which I mentioned earlier, is the fact that there's no
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: way to get in there. So what they need to
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: do before these fires start, and they've done this in
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: of several forest forests in America, is get in there
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: so you can get some type of roadway, so you
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: can get some people in there to start those containment lines.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Because if you don't have the containment lines. You can
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: drop all the water in the world on it, which
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: is all they've been doing. But you're not gonna get
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: any firefighters in there until they have a way to
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: travel in there and form a line. You know, they
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: dig it out. They make sure the fire doesn't spread
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: past a certain area, and that's impossible right now because
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: they can't even get in there.
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: I concur we have great CB units, you know, that
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: are graded doing that. Maybe we can train some of
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: the Canadians on how to do it, because they don't
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: seem to have enough personnel that are even trained to
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: do that. Maybe give them some equipment initially until they
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: can gather up to their own. But unfortunately, this is
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: a way it's gonna be now. You had pointed out
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: to our various weather folks who guided us for two
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: weeks in this extreme weather.
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: Remember we were clobbed by one hundred degree weather for
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: three days.
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: A week ago, and then same thing back to back,
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: belly to belly, and you kept saying, and what kind
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: of extreme weather is gonna follow? Are we gonna have
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: extreme weather after the three days? And they sort of
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: vacillated and hesitated. They weren't sure, but oh, boy, did
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: we get clobbed on Saturday. And I've been saying for
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: the city folks in New York City, you don't clean
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: the catch basins out, not to the people, they don't
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: have the ability to do that, but the city. And
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: you're gonna have massive flooding. You gonna have it in
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: the subways where the garbage is just blocking the catch basins,
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: and you're gonna have it above ground. Oh boy, did
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: we have it woodside sunnyside flushing in the basements. You know,
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: we've seen these pictures before, and I know both you
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: and Natalie out in New Jersey. It was gusting when
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: it was flooding. This just seems to be three days
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: of brutal hot weather and man, you're gonna get three
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: inches of rain and maybe just an hour and.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Again they can fix this. This is not that difficult
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: to fix. It's just expensive and nobody wants to spend
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: the money on it. But for instance, I don't know
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: if you saw some of the pictures of the fire
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: trucks going through the water and to begin up to
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: hear people getting stuck in water on the streets. It's
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: the same areas every single time, every single time, you
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: know where this is going to happen, So there should
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: be better drainage in theirs areas. You should have something
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: underneath the road. The water can go down on something,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: but they instead it is cheaper for them to allow
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: this to keep happening and not fix it. So when
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: you look at this and you think to yourself, wait
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: a second, how come my neighborhood floods all the time?
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: It's because your city or your state has chosen not
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: to do something about it. That's the only Listen.
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: Natalie yesterday had to pack her bags and go running
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: off to watch World Cup because a tree came down,
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: knocked over the lines, which always happens when the soil
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: weakens and the roots can no longer hold their own downloads.
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: The tree down, goes the electric.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: Poles down, goes World Cup.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Right, good, good, But you had to go find a
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: gin mill a watch?
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: Did?
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Did I tell you truth? It was a lot of fun.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Wow do you make new friends?
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: Well, my neighbors came with us, and yeah, I made
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: a bunch of friends. There was a whole family of
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: Spanish friends. They're decked out with their flag.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: Oh hell coolhit chat with them.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: So it's a much better experience.
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: It actually was.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: Thank God for that tree, huh.
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: I know, now, Lowry, you love polygrip. What is that
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: polymarket market? I guarantee you in our Tri state area
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: if you had to predict where flooding would take place,
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: west Chester, Ronx River Parkway, saul Mill River, Hutchinson d'kane
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: parkways that are built in river valleys, A little sprits
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: of water and they're underwater. Like you said, you see
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: those fire engines coming through, people think they can drive
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: to it. I got a four wheel drive here, where's
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: the fire department? You know, they're like ready to drown.
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: But there are certain places, as you said, if you.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: Did a prediction market, you could almost guarantee, oh absolutely,
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: when you have even an inch of rain in an
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: hour where the fighting is gonna.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: And everybody knows where they are. Everybody knows where they are,
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: including the city planners. So fix them. Do one at
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: a time. If you don't want to spend all the money,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: just take one at a time and fix them. And
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: over the next few years you can get them all fixed.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: But don't just keep letting this happen. Properties being damaged,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: lives are being lost, people are being scared to death.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: Just fix it.
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: Well up next, you remember that picture of Mitch McConnell,
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: the Senator, with his wife, the former Tran Transportation Secretary
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: of all smiling while he was in bed in the hospital.
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: We still don't know if that was a real picture,
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: because the Kentucky government came out yesterday and said this
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: is the Governor of Kentucky, that he had received two
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: calls from agencies that McConnell was dead, and we haven't
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: heard McConnell speak. Oh, the drama continues, And oh, update
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: on Lindsey graham Man, We haven't gotten that toxicology report
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: back then taken effort from it.
