• 1:17
  Speaker 1: supporting him through his recovery.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Mike Elko.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Answered questions about Bryce on the SEC conference call today,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: saying that he's still in the process of recovering and
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: so it's hard to gauge a timeline right now, but
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: we do expect that we'll have him back at some point.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Florida associate head coach and running backs coach Jabbar Juluke
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: has been suspended three games for his involvement in an
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: altercation before the Gators lost to LSU and bat Ruge Saturday.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: The SEC and Florida jointly announced his suspension yesterday. One
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: of those games will be against Texas A and m
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Jabar's conduct during the pregame altercation reflects behavior that is
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: unacceptable and not aligned with the standards of the Southeastern Conference.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: At Greg Sanki, in his statement, coaches.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Are expected to be leaders and to de escalate tense situations,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and that did not happen in this circumstance. Things got
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: chippy between the Gators and the Tigers during pregame warmups,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: with multiple scuffles taking place. Jaluke issued an apology, saying
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: he reacted in a manner I'm not proud of. It's
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: unclear what exactly happened to result in his suspension, but
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: his apology mentioned behavior toward a young athlete. Colorado's experiment
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: with quarterback Ryan Stobb is over for now. The Buffaloes
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: will start Caden Salter at quarterback Saturday night against Wyoming.
• 3:01

• 3:06
  Speaker 1: transferred to Colorado the offseason after four years at Liberty.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: The Buffaloes are one and two. They will play BYU
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: after taking on Wyoming Saturday evening. Game three of Rangers
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Astros is tonight. That game is at seven to ten.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Are we carrying that game? It's Wednesday night.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: We have like a coaches show or something tonight instead.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know. We may be carrying that game next door.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: It's here, okay, six forty Jacob de Gram, Christian Javier.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: The Rangers lost for the second night in a row.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: They are four games now behind Houston, and if they
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: lose tonight, they'll lose the tiebreaker that they would gain
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: over the Astros.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: De Gram twelve and seven with a two eight to two.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Era hasn't been as good lately, has given up quite
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: a few home runs.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Last night.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: The Astros scored six runs in the first four innings
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: and then held on to win six to five. The
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: tie run and the go ahead run both on base
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: in the eighth and the ninth innings. Cody Freeman was
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: won for three. Wyatt Langford had a stolen base to
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: become the youngest Texas ranger in franchise history, at age
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: twenty three, to hit twenty home runs and steal twenty
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: bases in a season. Shoey O'tani had a no hitter
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: through five innings against the Phillies last night. He struck
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: out five, walked one through sixty eight pitches. When Dave
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Roberts came, he told reporters after the game, he asked
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: him how he was feeling. He said, I feel okay,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: but Roberts decided to remove him. The Dodgers were up
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: four to nothing at the time, but they lost the
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: game nine to six. Roberts said, We've been very steadfast
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: in every situation as far as innings for his usage,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: from one inning to two to three, to four to five,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: we haven't deviated from that. I was trying to get
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: his pulse going forward, continuing go in the sixth inning.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to have a plan for five innings,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: and then he pitches well and say, hey, now you're
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: gonna go for six. He's too important, and yeah, the
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Dodgers can probably afford to give up one game to say,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: show Aotani going forward. Meanwhile, the Big Dumper is going crazy.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: He hit his fifty fifth and fifty sixth home run
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: last night, which gives him a major League record for
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: most home runs in a season by switch hitter, passing
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Mickey Mannel. And when he hit number fifty six, he
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: tied Ken Griffey Junior's franchise record. The Seattle Mariners are
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: on a heater right now at just the right time.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: They remain ahead of the Astros in the West, and
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: the Astros will host the Mariners for three games coming up.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Jim Nill of the Dallas Stars confirms that they have
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: not yet signed high scoring forward Jason Robertson to a contract.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: He wants to see what the market is, says Nil.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: We want to see where the market is. Things are
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: kind of on hold, but we communicated all summer. They
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: know our stands, they know what we're looking for, and
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I'm confident we're going to get something done. And severe
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: drought conditions in Hawaii at Kapalua have led to the
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: consistent closing of the plantation course where they open the
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: PGA Tour every year. The twenty twenty six tournament won't
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: be there. The PGA is considering other options, including somewhere
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: else in Hawaii or perhaps California or Florida. We'll see
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: how that works out. Players probably want to go to
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Hawaii somewhere. I'm guessing the players' wives and wags want
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: to go to Hawaii for sure. All right, coming up,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: we are going to look at last night's Astros Rangers game.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: I will tell you that at tomorrow Jason and Jared
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: will be sitting in We will have a high school
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: report tomorrow. I have no idea what they have planned.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: I never do.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: And on Friday, Young Ryan will be here. I will
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: be having my weekly regular Friday visits with Kirk Boles
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: of the Houston Chronicle and Tony Catalina of the Austin
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: American Statesman. That is Friday, and on Monday we'll be
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: back with the writers round table. No game this weekend
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: kind of weird. So next week will be game week
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: with the Auburn Tigers coming in, and of course Auburn
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: is in Norman to play Oklahoma on Saturday afternoon.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: All right, we're going to take a break. We will
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: come back.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: The final lap is brought to you by a co Insurance.

• 9:28
  Speaker 5: He's got three wins in the last seven races in
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: the truck Series.
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: His name is Lane Riggs, and he picked up another
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: w this past weekend at the short track at Bristol.
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: I really feel like we've been on a roll for
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: a while now. We've had some misfortunes, some things that
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: really didn't go our way, and some missteps by us,
• 9:45
  Speaker 7: but not forely. We've had competitive speed and race winning
• 9:47
  Speaker 7: speed almost every race this year, so we are peaking
• 9:49
  Speaker 7: at the right time though, right when it counts, right
• 9:51
  Speaker 7: when it matters, inside the playoffs, And yeah, what a
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: better place to do it at Bristol.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: I wish I could have.
• 9:54
  Speaker 7: Done it last week at Darlington, but this makes up
• 9:56
  Speaker 7: for all that for sure. I wouldn't say surprise. I
• 9:59
  Speaker 7: mean a little surprise. I mean with the truck race.
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: But I knew once we got everybody got pretty ironed out.
• 10:04
  Speaker 7: I was like, Okay, it's gonna hopefully run green here,
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: and I was praying that it would run green, but
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: you know, I had the confidence nobody was gonna pit anyways.
• 10:12
  Speaker 7: So when I was out front, I was just managing
• 10:15
  Speaker 7: my gap, managing my tires, just trying to make sure
• 10:17
  Speaker 7: if we did have another restart that I'd be okay.
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: And just the top lane launched so well, and I
• 10:21
  Speaker 7: was so fast on the top, like when I got
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: to like seventh up to third, and like one lap
• 10:27
  Speaker 7: on one of those restarts, I just knew that I
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: was going to be able to hold them off.
• 10:31
  Speaker 8: It's really it's gonna be really hard for anybody to.
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: Pass me with the lead, So just manage my stuff
• 10:35
  Speaker 7: to make sure that it just made it easier on me. Uh,
• 10:37
  Speaker 7: when if we did have one. Yeah, I mean I
• 10:39
  Speaker 7: think we showed that tonight. You know, pressures on. We're
• 10:41
  Speaker 7: inside the playoffs and I think his pit crew made
• 10:44
  Speaker 7: a mistake there and we got some clean air out front.
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: So we just got to, like I said, keep the
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: pressure applied.
• 10:48
  Speaker 9: I know that we can do it.
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: We got the speed to compete, like you said, and
• 10:51
  Speaker 7: it all comes down to one race, and you just
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: got to be perfect that one night.

• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Like the man the Dept.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: We go down the Highway. We're the best of friends,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: insisting in the world can't turned out and also discussed
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: last night by the Rangers performance. I turned the game
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: off and was flipping and I found an old Willie
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: concert called Angels and Outlaws from LA on Access and
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: just unbelievable how many musicians were on that show. I mean,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: I can't begin to name them all, but Toby Keith
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: was there, and Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones was there,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: and Jerry Lee Lewis was there. He came out and
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: set the stage on Fireman as he always does, Lee
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Ane Wollmock. There were just just you know, singer after
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: singer at at this deal that they did. It was
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: a benefit for something and I've seen it several times,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: but men, there were a lot of musicians.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: James Cohn was the that was Sunny Corleone was the
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: EMC man.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: That was pretty cool. So yeah, so I'm watching that
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: instead of that horrible game, and then i flip back
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: just in time for the eighth inning, and I'm going,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: what in the wild wild sports is going on here?
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: And as they have all year, and last night was
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: pretty much a snapshot of the entire season for the
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Texas Rangers. So it's a bullpen game for the Astros.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Aj blue Ball gets a start. He's pitching, you know,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: like Bob Gibson or somebody. He throws three innings, gets
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: seven strikeouts. The Rangers are just flailing. They look like
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: they've looked for frankly, the majority of the season. They
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: are clueless at the plate. They're swinging at balls that
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: are a foot outside or in the dirt or over
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: their head, and it's just ridonculous. Merrill Kelly had his
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: worst outing since he joined the Rangers. He pitched just
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: three innings, gave up six runs, nine hits, only had
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: one strikeout.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: It was not pretty. It wasn't pretty at all.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, he got pulled with nobody out in the
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: fourth inning, in which the Astros ended up scoring four times.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: So they're up six to nothing. Games over. Cody Freeman
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: hits a home run and I didn't see it because
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: again I'd given up by then. So at six to
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: one going into the eighth, there's two outs in the eighth, okay,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: two outs again, nobody on two outs. The Rangers scored
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: four runs, and I'm going okay, they've been doing this
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: throughout the winning streak. They've been getting behind most of
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: the year, mostly not coming back, but they have either
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: seven or eight come from behind wins in the seventeenth
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: inning or later, which is the second most in Major
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: League Baseball. Okay, and my thing is the reason it's
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: the second most in Major League Baseball is because they
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: have had more opportunities than anybody in baseball to come
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: from behind, because they're always playing from behind. Burger has
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: just been terrible during in this series. In two games,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: he is zero for seven, okay, with like four or
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: five strikeouts. He's one of the worst, flailing away at pitches,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: just not good, I mean just not good. A doles Garcia,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: they sat him down, he was so bad, so he
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: didn't start. But Bochie pinch hits him for Hellman in
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: the eighth inning, and some of us are going, Helman's
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: been great, right, the former Aggie player, he's been great
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: for the Ragers. Why are you pinch hitting him and
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: bringing a dooles Garcia? And well, Adoles has owned the
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Rangers historically, right, and so they bring him in first pitch,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Adoles cranks and ball RBI right off the bitch. I'm
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: going Okay, good move, Bruce Boci, nice move. I'll give
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: you a stat. In the last four seasons, Adoles has
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: forty six runs batted in against the Astros. That's the
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: most of any major league player. Okay, we know that
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Adoles owns the Astros.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: We know.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Jose Altuve owns the Astros. He has two hundred and
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: forty career hits against the Astros. That is the eighth most.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Note now seventh most hits versus the Rangers ever. Okay,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Cal Ripken Jr. Has and Garrett Anderson have two hundred
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: and forty eight each. He has ninety eight RBI against
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: the Rangers. Okay, and last night couple of ribbis. One
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: on a sackfly. He had a bunt that was just
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: a beautiful butt he laid down to get runners to
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: second and third, and I'm pretty sure that led to
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: at least a run when he did that. So it
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: was it was the entire season for the Ranger in
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: one game, you saw the worst, you saw the best.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: You saw them.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Then after they made this comeback and they make it
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: six to five and you're thinking, here we go. They
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: leave the the go ahead and tying runs on in
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: the eighth, they leave the go ahead and tying runs
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: on in the ninth and Kukaracha. First, we're going to
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: hear from Merrill Kelly about his outing.
• 19:33
  Speaker 14: Marylyn is what felt off for you today?
• 19:36
  Speaker 15: Just locations of certain ones.
• 19:39
  Speaker 16: You know, not all of them weren't bad pitches, but
• 19:40
  Speaker 16: they just you know, in games like this that mean
• 19:43
  Speaker 16: a lot. And you got to be pretty precise with
• 19:45
  Speaker 16: the execution, especially against the team the A you just saw,
• 19:49
  Speaker 16: and be as good at working on bets. You know,
• 19:53
  Speaker 16: obviously I had some some tough luck, but also I
• 19:57
  Speaker 16: got to be better at executing a couple of pitches,
• 19:59
  Speaker 16: especially with you know, two strikes.
• 20:02
  Speaker 14: What adjustments did you try to make throughout the auning?
• 20:05
  Speaker 15: Just locate better.
• 20:09
  Speaker 16: This is a big series coming in and you guys
• 20:11
  Speaker 16: have lost the first two, you had ten to go.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: What's the mindset here going forward?
• 20:17
  Speaker 17: You get.
• 20:20
  Speaker 16: I'm done, Just keep going. I mean, there's nothing really
• 20:23
  Speaker 16: we can do other and keep going. We obviously know
• 20:25
  Speaker 16: the situation, we know the gravity. You know, it's tough
• 20:28
  Speaker 16: obviously losing those first two games here with it being
• 20:31
  Speaker 16: a direct you know series for our future, but no
• 20:35
  Speaker 16: thing we can do is turn all.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Right, sorry they cut him off there. That that was
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Merrill Kelly. He was terrible. The Rangers now sitting at
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: seventy nine and seventy three, having lost three games in
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: a row. They are four games behind Houston and they
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: are tied six up in the series. So whoever wins,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: and if Houston wins, I think that's it for Texas.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: They would be, you know, five back with nine to play.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: And they've got other people now that they've brought back in,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: including Cleveland, into the chase for the wild Card. Seattle
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: is really Kansas City was just about dead anyway, and
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Seattle's taking care of them. Boston, you know, is certainly
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: there in the hunt. But we said that this series,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: the Rangers had to take two out of three, right,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: they needed two out of three. They went in two
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: games behind. Now they're four games behind. They take one,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: they leave three games back, but at least they have
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: the still have that tie breaker. They do not have
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: the tiebreaker with Seattle. I don't think they're going to
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: have to worry about Seattle. I don't. I still think
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Seattle is going to be that team in the Al West.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: I said that six weeks ago. I stayed with that
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: and the way the big dumper is going, nobody.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: Can get him out.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, they know this guy is hitting home runs
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: right and left, and he's still hitting home runs. He
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: is on a roll. He has hit fifty six of
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: them and he's not finished. There's ten games left. Let's
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: hear from Bruce Bouchee Rangers manager Boach.
• 22:32
  Speaker 14: Loss is a loss, but an unbelievable amount of fight
• 22:35
  Speaker 14: from this team the last two innings. How would you
• 22:37
  Speaker 14: describe what we saw from them there late right right?
• 22:40
  Speaker 17: A tremendous fight, had the winning run on there to
• 22:43
  Speaker 17: eighth and ninth. They battled hard, and you'll get off
• 22:46
  Speaker 17: to a rough start there and get down five runs,
• 22:49
  Speaker 17: and bullpen did a great job and they were fighting
• 22:53
  Speaker 17: to get back in it, and they did and I'm
• 22:56
  Speaker 17: just missing that one more hit obviously, But you had
• 22:59
  Speaker 17: a love you know, they just kept going, kept going
• 23:02
  Speaker 17: against some tough pitching too, So you know, keep doing this.
• 23:07
  Speaker 17: That's what we have to do to get to where
• 23:09
  Speaker 17: we want to go.
• 23:10
  Speaker 14: Often struggled early. It seemed like they were struggling specifically
• 23:13
  Speaker 14: against spin.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: What were you.
• 23:15
  Speaker 14: Seeing from them there against Sue spin? Just bring the ball?
• 23:20
  Speaker 17: Well, yeah, I mean they got good stuff fastball too.
• 23:25
  Speaker 17: Their starter. You know, he's been throwing the ball well
• 23:27
  Speaker 17: for him, and you know, he looked like I had
• 23:30
  Speaker 17: some hop to it, and you know, and then yeah,
• 23:32
  Speaker 17: they they threw a lot of spin. But we had
• 23:37
  Speaker 17: some good at bats as the game went. That's that's
• 23:39
  Speaker 17: what I loved in the fight. And we got down,
• 23:42
  Speaker 17: you know, Kelly, you know, he threw the ball right,
• 23:46
  Speaker 17: and you know they didn't. You know, they hit you know,
• 23:48
  Speaker 17: the ball's hard, but when they didn't, we just couldn't
• 23:51
  Speaker 17: give him a hit it at somebody and that's what,
• 23:54
  Speaker 17: you know, costs us some runs there.
• 23:56
  Speaker 14: Tomorrow is the closest this team has experienced to and
• 23:59
  Speaker 14: must win game at this point. But what kind of
• 24:02
  Speaker 14: help does it give this group knowing that they're going
• 24:04
  Speaker 14: into that game off of a couple of good innings
• 24:06
  Speaker 14: like they had tonight.
• 24:06
  Speaker 17: Yeah, you know, hopefully that momentum ok area into tomorrow,
• 24:10
  Speaker 17: get some runs early instead of trying to come from behind.
• 24:14
  Speaker 17: That's always big. And yeah, they're all must win now
• 24:17
  Speaker 17: we're down and you have some catching up to do.
• 24:20
  Speaker 17: So that's how we're looking at it. And they played
• 24:22
  Speaker 17: like it. And yeah, if you look at those last
• 24:25
  Speaker 17: two three innings. That's that's what I love about them.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: That's Bochy de Grom I mentioned on the mound.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: After tonight, the Rangers have tomorrow off, they go to
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: they go back home. They will play Miami, they'll play Minnesota,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: and then they finish at Cleveland. Okay, they'll have nine
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: games left after tonight, and the the Astros will have
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: nine games left after tonight, including three against the Mariners. Big, huge,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: large series there. It's interesting because I I guess the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Astro fans wanted to beat the traffic last night. When
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: I turned the game back on, there's like half the
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: stadium is gone.
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: It was kind of weird.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: I'm going, you're you're winning, like for the second night
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: in a row, why don't you stay and enjoy it.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: There were certainly some Ranger fans there, no doubt, but
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: I was surprised at how many empty seats there were
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: later later in the game, very surprised.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: I would.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know, having won two in a row, I
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: don't know. Will this be the best crowd they've had
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: of the three game series? Yeah? Probably at thirty five
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: last night. My guess is they'll get at least that tonight.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Christian Javier is on the mound for the Astros. Let
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: me get my astro's cheat sheet here. I just had
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: that so many, so many papers. You think I do
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: this all from memory, but I really don't. I have
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: helpers here. I don't know what happened to my astros.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: I'm losing it and I didn't mean my mind, but
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: probably that too. I just had it anyway. I was
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: going to give you some Hobvier stats. But did I
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: throw that away into unintentionally? Caleb's digging through the trash
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: to see if I trashed my astro's information seat sheet. No,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: all right, well, let's hear somewhere. I'm sure i'll find
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: it by five thirty or six six o'clock this evening.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: And but the the Walking Astro's Historian, we'll be here
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: in a little bit. Scott Clin dinn't so. I'm sure
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: he knows all of that stuff that I was that
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I was trying to search for. But JAVIERA is on
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: the mound, and we'll see what happens. The Astros are
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: one game back still of Seattle. There are a half
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: well Seattle played, were they a half before the game?
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: I guess last night and they both ended up winning.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: Is that what happened?
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Seattle, thank thanks.
• 27:48
  Speaker 18: Seattle didn't play.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: Monday, okay, and that that was the half interesting Okay,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: so they're they're a half game back, is what you're
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: telling me?
• 28:01
  Speaker 14: Correct?
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: And does Seattle play tonight?
• 28:05
  Speaker 17: Yes?
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Okay, they're playing at Kansas City again tonight. I'm assuming
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: they've been in Kansas City. Yes, okay, okay, so they're
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: playing all the way through the week and they do
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: play Kansas City and they they oh, okay, it was Tuesday.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: It's a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday series. So they played. Did
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: they play an afternoon game tomorrow? Is that a getaway day?
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Does it say? Uh? They will play Kansas City Seattle
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: again tomorrow before coming Okay, so it is an afternoon
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: game and they will play before coming in to Houston Friday,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Saturday Sunday. What time are those games this weekend? Friday
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Saturday Sunday, I know, Friday night, six six ten, all right,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: seven ten, six ten, and sixteen. It's kind of weird
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: that Houston has those Saturday night games at six at
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: s because a lot of teams like on Saturday night
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: that they'll start later than their normal start right because
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: it's it's Saturday.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: But okay, so there you go.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it's gonna be a fun to
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: the finish. And I, you know, Rusty Berson and I
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: text and I'm going, Look, if you would have told
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: me August first that the Rangers would be playing meaningful
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: games with ten games left in the season, I would
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: have said, you're crazy. There's no way. So, like I said,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: I they have fought. It hadn't been pretty, it hasn't
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: been clean. And by the way, the Astros they're very aggressive.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: You talk about, you know, wearing down pitchers, but these
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: guys are. They come up swinging. But the difference is
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: they're aggressive within the zone. Okay, they have done an
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: outstanding job with contact in this series against Ranger pitching.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: They really have, and which you know they haven't necessarily
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: been doing consistently, but they have done a really good
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: job with that. Galeria has been part of our community
• 30:25

• 31:04
  Speaker 1: complete boutique. And I'm going to tell you guys again
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: during this football season and really anytime, is that if
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: you will go get a gift certificate.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: You can do it online, but.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: You'll screw it up if you go to these places.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: They'll put it in this really cool gift bag with
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: ribbons on it, and it'll look like that you made
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: a lot of effort to do this, and we're really
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: thoughtful when you did it. So I'm going to say
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: go buy either location and get a gift certificate to
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: give to your wife and she will gladly accept it,
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: and then you can just park your fat rear in
• 31:55

  Speaker 9: I was terrible last week.
• 35:40
  Speaker 17: Chip.
• 35:41
  Speaker 9: With all those road teams I picked.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: You were, Oh yeah, it was an easy week apparently.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: I mean half the half the pickers went nine to
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: one last week.
• 35:50
  Speaker 9: I was terrible.
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: I wasn't too good. I was seven and three.
• 35:54
  Speaker 9: I got six, right, I mean, wait, you got you
• 35:57
  Speaker 9: only had seven?
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: I was seven and three.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: And then place Sessa had to remind me at like
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: three o'clock, hey, we don't have your prog picks, and
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: I went, yeah, I shoot, I forgot to do my
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: prog picks. And then I went, hey, what's the worst
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: that can happen if I don't do my prog picks?
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Because what he'll do is usually just give you the
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: whatever picks the dog makes.
• 36:25
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well the dog hadn't been real good this year.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: I am still barely ahead of the dog. But I'm thinking,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: if I'm going to have to continue to do this
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: as I've done for years, I may have to retire
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: because apparently Gary Blair has got nothing else to do.
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: But pick football games. Why he's kicking our buddy. He's
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: kicking my buddy. He's kicking everybody's butt.
• 36:55
  Speaker 9: Yeah, those are coming game of the week this week.
• 36:58
  Speaker 15: Ugh, I don't know.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: It's some directional school. Actually it was Ablin Christian at
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Austin p. Ablin Kristen is fifteenth and Austin p is twentieth.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I believe that's not a crumming game. Well, he called
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: it a crummy game?
• 37:18
  Speaker 9: Do you have the wrong horns in Sam Houston?
• 37:20
  Speaker 12: No?
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: No, I didn't put that game.
• 37:24
  Speaker 9: How many points does Texas have to score for it
• 37:27
  Speaker 9: not to be a krumming game? And the eyes of
• 37:29
  Speaker 9: Longhorn fans?
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Oh, I can't speak for that, but I will say
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: that I talked to Kirk. No, I did talk to
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Kirk today, but I I.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: Visited with with.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: What's his name, Louis this morning on his show, and
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: he asked I still had arches my top Heisman candidate,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: and I said yes, but but with this qualification, it's
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: not easy. You know, I'm pretty serious about my Heisman votes.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: I said he would have to throw one touchdown pass
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: against Sam Houston Saturday and be at least fifty percent.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: And if he doesn't throw a touchdown pass and yes,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: one touchdown pass against Sam Houston and he can't be
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: more fifty percent or higher with his completion rate, I'm
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: going to have.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: To seriously consider.
• 38:31
  Speaker 9: Taking him off my favorite and go to sellers.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, don't.
• 38:36
  Speaker 9: I don't know who I'm going to go to sellers. Well,
• 38:39
  Speaker 9: he's hurt right now. Yeah, but if they couldn't. If
• 38:42
  Speaker 9: you can't beat Vandy because your quarterback is hurt, and
• 38:46
  Speaker 9: then you win games when.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: He's back, well we already knew he was important, right.
• 38:50
  Speaker 9: Doesn't that mean that he's the best player in college football?
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: My problem is I keep picking Club Nick to win games,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: and I'm getting killed on that too, among all the
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: other games I'm getting killed on. I keep betting on Clemson,
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: and I keep thinking Club Nick is gonna be Clubnick.
• 39:14
  Speaker 9: And then, okay, I was listening driving back from Dallas
• 39:20
  Speaker 9: on Saturday. I mean on Sunday, a.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Good game you saw apparently, Yeah it was you were
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: at the Cowboys game.
• 39:27
  Speaker 9: Yeah, And basically they are what I thought they are.
• 39:32
  Speaker 9: The Cincinnati Bengals with a little bit better offensive line,
• 39:36
  Speaker 9: not saying it's significantly better, but enough to keep Dak
• 39:40
  Speaker 9: from gettingtting killed, from getting hurt. Yeah, because the barrels
• 39:44
  Speaker 9: is already out for the year now, right, Okay, So
• 39:48
  Speaker 9: they gotta score forty to win games, correct? And I
• 39:51
  Speaker 9: scored forty one to win this week? Okay, it's forty three?
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: Was it forty three to forty? I don't know you.
• 39:59
  Speaker 9: I thought it was four?
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: No, you're you're thinking a notre day man. Now, yes,
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: I think it was forty three to forty.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Yes, I shouldn't know that, but I do.
• 40:06
  Speaker 15: So that's what they are.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:10
  Speaker 9: Now, if you get the Jidavian Clowney from two years ago,
• 40:15
  Speaker 9: I'm not even talking about the Texans when he was
• 40:18
  Speaker 9: right as good a defensive place. But two years ago
• 40:21
  Speaker 9: at Baltimore he had ten and a half sacks. Okay,
• 40:24
  Speaker 9: if you get some reasonable facsimile of that, they may
• 40:28
  Speaker 9: be able to win games scoring thirty five. Okay, he
• 40:31
  Speaker 9: might be a five point player.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: Really, yes, okay, because then.
• 40:36
  Speaker 9: They all they have to do is win thirty five
• 40:38
  Speaker 9: thirty four, So that's one two point conversion and four
• 40:43
  Speaker 9: six field good?
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: Are they No?
• 40:45
  Speaker 9: No, they're not.
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: But they're at home.
• 40:48
  Speaker 9: Yeah, okay, have Okay, I'm gonna ask you this, Chip.
• 40:52
  Speaker 9: I was thinking about it because you probably remember this
• 40:56
  Speaker 9: because you're around. I remember the fans at SMU and
• 41:01
  Speaker 9: the fans at Baylor leaving reading about them leaving when
• 41:07
  Speaker 9: Tony Franklin walked out at the end of games that
• 41:10
  Speaker 9: he walked out to kick two sixty plus yards or
• 41:13
  Speaker 9: maybe it was a fifty nine against SMU, and the
• 41:16
  Speaker 9: SMU fans and the Baylor fans are like, it's over.
• 41:19
  Speaker 9: He's not gonna miss this kick. Okay, Now, No, kickers
• 41:24
  Speaker 9: are bigger, stronger, whatever. They kick it further.
• 41:26
  Speaker 19: Now.
• 41:27
  Speaker 9: I the kicker for the Cowboys is as cold blooded
• 41:31
  Speaker 9: as any professional athlete.
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: I'm told this will be his last year kicking for Dallas. No, yeah,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 41:38
  Speaker 9: No, he's a restricted free agent a year from now.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Are you sure?
• 41:41
  Speaker 17: Yes?
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: I thought it was this next year.
• 41:43
  Speaker 9: They're still giving him the money, Chip, I don't think so.
• 41:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah they are. They just saved it.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: No, No, they've given it to other people since then. Yes,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: they've given ridiculous contracts to other people since they didn't
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: sign Michael Parsons.
• 41:55
  Speaker 9: And they still have a ridiculous amount of money to
• 41:57
  Speaker 9: sign it.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: I don't think so.
• 41:59
  Speaker 9: Jerry, Jerry would be worse off if they let him
• 42:03
  Speaker 9: go than Parsons.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: I don't think he cares.
• 42:06
  Speaker 9: Chip. There were twenty five thousand empty seats.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: Wow, he does care about that.
• 42:16
  Speaker 9: Okay, hang on, let me go to my photo because
• 42:18
  Speaker 9: I did not know that. Okay, So while the game
• 42:21
  Speaker 9: was going on, I.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: Got the Giants usually bring fans.
• 42:24
  Speaker 9: While the game was going on, I got on the
• 42:27
  Speaker 9: secondary ticket to check and see how much the tickets
• 42:32
  Speaker 9: I got were going during the game. Okay, Okay, the
• 42:36
  Speaker 9: tickets I were sitting in were going for seventy dollars
• 42:41
  Speaker 9: less than I paid, and I paid a low price. Okay,
• 42:47
  Speaker 9: Now let me get to this one behind the Giants bench.
• 42:53
  Speaker 9: Two tickets front row behind the Giants bench at the
• 42:59
  Speaker 9: beginning of the second quarter, one hundred and twenty three dollars.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: Jerry Zangel like that. I will say that.
• 43:08
  Speaker 9: Okay. They put out white towels for everybody to, you know,
• 43:11
  Speaker 9: have a toy away to wave. Yeah, twenty five thousand.
• 43:17
  Speaker 9: It made it very easy to get extra towels, to
• 43:20
  Speaker 9: get extra towels, and to see how many people weren't there.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: Wow, I did not realize that that's substantial. Let me
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: see your picture. Oh my gosh, that's crazy.
• 43:37
  Speaker 9: That's cheesy.
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's the ones they sell.
• 43:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and it was like that in the in the
• 43:43
  Speaker 9: in the season ticket spots too.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm trying to find uh, since you mentioned
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: how much I could get a ticket to the Sam
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: Houston State game over in Austin on Saturday, billion.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: I got to tell you.
• 44:04

  Speaker 1: talk about the Rangers and Astros series, and then we'll
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: never speak of it again.
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: Why it'll be over.
• 50:39
  Speaker 9: It's gonna be over. The Rangers should win the game.
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: Tonight, you jstro, But I don't believe that.
• 50:45
  Speaker 9: I mean, but Christian Haavier can go off. I'm not
• 50:48
  Speaker 9: saying that he can't. But the Astros have used up
• 50:50
  Speaker 9: everything in the bullpen because the Rangers made the late
• 50:53
  Speaker 9: run last night at the Astros and they had to
• 50:56
  Speaker 9: use leverage guys, and they don't you know, there.
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't take a Braille be available.
• 51:01
  Speaker 9: No, that and that's a huge spot for the Astros.
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't have a closer.
• 51:04
  Speaker 9: They don't have a closer. Uh you know, hater is.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: But if you're down six to nothing, kind of like
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: last night, you don't really need a close. They're just
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: somebody that can only give up five runs.
• 51:14
  Speaker 9: Well that's what the Astros did last night, right, I know.
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, I'm just saying, if you get that far act, was.
• 51:21
  Speaker 9: The game managed more to your liking last night?
• 51:23
  Speaker 17: Yes?
• 51:23
  Speaker 9: Two nights ago? Yes, two nights ago was not managed
• 51:26
  Speaker 9: very well.
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: No, it was terrible.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: I've never seen that before, and Bochi was pretty defensive
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: when asked about it, you know, and I really had
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: not seen that. But I will say this, Ranger fans
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: including me, were pretty upset to see Adolex s Garcia
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: as well as he's.
• 51:41
  Speaker 9: Done Eastern Maya Houston.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: I understand as well as he's done against the Astros,
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: But David Hellman has been swinging the bat. I'm sorry,
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: Michael Hellman has been spent swinging the bat a lot better, right. Yeah,
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: they had benched a Doles and he didn't play last night,
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: and they bring him up in the eighth inning in
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: a crucial position. I'm going, what are you doing?
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: Making contact?
• 52:02
  Speaker 16: Hit?
• 52:02
  Speaker 19: He did.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: Make look like a genius, right, but the night before
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: he didn't look so much like a genius when you're
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: pitch running a guy at first base instead of for
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: the catcher who your time with a calendar at second base?
• 52:17
  Speaker 17: Uh?
• 52:17
  Speaker 9: He was only out by ten feet, chip, Yeah, I mean.
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: It would have taken a triple to score it. Okay,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: So I don't I didn't understand it, But I didn't
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: understand a lot of what happened, honestly. But if you
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: want to put that game on the manager, I'll give
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: you ten more that I'll I'll put on the positive side.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: So I'm staying with that. But yeah, I thought he
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: had a bad game too. Two nights ago.
• 52:42
  Speaker 17: I did.
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: But if they lose tonight, if they lose tonight, the
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: season's over. So uh But as I've said again, I'll
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: say again, August. First, you tell me they're playing a
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: meaningful game, and try ten with ten games left, you tried.
• 52:56
  Speaker 3: I didn't believe you.
• 52:59
  Speaker 9: Two had the last years, Chip.
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: Maybe last year was terrible.
• 53:02
  Speaker 9: That's what I'm saying. Had the last three years.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: I told you they were dead in the water. Tell
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: you that last No, No, they were dead in the
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: water two years ago too. Yeah, in my mind and
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: everybody's mind, you know. But but yeah, that was it
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: that this team has had a grid about it. They
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: hadn't always been good, for sure, they hadn't always been good.
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: They they're not.
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: They cannot hit consistently, and last night they made this
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: blue ball guy look like the second coming of the
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame pitcher. I mean, they're just they're waving
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: at balls in the dirt over their head in the dugout.
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: It was brutal. Seven strikeouts and three innings.
• 53:36
  Speaker 11: Was just horrible.
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: But fortunately the.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: The Astros bullpen you know, came in and and they
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: well they got a few runs.
• 53:46
  Speaker 9: I mean, you could have had last Peculers come in.
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: He's not quite ready yet.
• 53:52
  Speaker 9: He is pitching in the bullpen. He pitched.
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: Oh so you're saying he can come out of the
• 53:57
  Speaker 3: bullpen to pitch. Yes, he is. I hope he does.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: And JP Frantz in the bullpit really okay, Now, Jason,
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: they've got a little help maybe, yeah, maybe, but I'd
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: like to see him a piller.
• 54:09
  Speaker 9: The Groham going tonight. Yeah, the Rangers should be the
• 54:12
  Speaker 9: favorite tonight.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think they'll be a slight favorite
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: if you're talking about betting favorites. Yeah. I just I
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: think the Grom has pitched too many innings. They tried
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: to manage him and they have to extent. He's pitched
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: more innings than anybody on the staff. And he was
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: going to even before a vaulting got hurt, right, uh
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: And and I think it's caught. I think it's caught
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: up to him because he was really good, you know,
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: the first half of the season, I mean really good.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: And I just I think he's tired. All Right, we
• 54:43

• 54:45
