  Speaker 2: fallout of trading a popular player like Micah Parsons. And

  Speaker 2: there's more stories bouncing around the echo chamber that Micah's
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: behavior during Cowboy Camp rubbed people in the locker room
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: the wrong way.

  Speaker 2: mast and spectacularly powerful microphones of fs are am monating

  Speaker 2: live from the journey, the joyful journey through the late

  Speaker 2: that's well, probably is the case. And this portion of
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: the Ben Maler Jean Fox made possible part by our
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: friends at tire Rack. For over forty years, ti Iraq
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: what and where they drive, ship fast and freeback by
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: free row hazard protection. Mister nice guy signs off on
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: that with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, and
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: the Firk Dog likes to that because they can go
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: to his mom's house and they can put the tires
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: right there. Tire rack dot com the way tire buying
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: should be, says alf the Alien opiner. So our lead
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: this hour is from the frozen Tundra. It's not that cold,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: not now. It'll get cold, not yet, come on, it's
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: early September. So the fallout though, continues from the trade
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: heard around the pig Skin whirld. And you know, I
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: love a good juicy story, and this continues to be
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: pretty good. Stories still got legs. It's been about a week.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: The story still got legs. If you have not heard
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: the latest, perhaps not Micah Parsons. According to his agent,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Micah Parsons wanted to be a cowboy, and had he
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: not been traded to the Green bayfoot ball team, according
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: to the agent, Parsons would have played in the season
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: opener which is on Thursday night in Philadelphia, and they
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: would not have sat out that game. That according to
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: the Great David Mullaghetta, the in your face aging for
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Micah Parsons now Moveagheda contended that parsons first choice was
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: always to remain in Dallas. How are you feeling in
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Green Bay right now? You don't want to play for
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: your team? He wants to play for Cowboys? How how
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: does that make you feel? A quote from moveaged he said, quote,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: I think the most important thing is Michaeh wanted to
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: be a cowboy. He grew up cheering for the Cowboys.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: According to Molaghetta, he wore the blue and white at
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Penn State ward in the NFL with the Cowboys. He
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: wanted to be a cowboy, and we did everything we
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: could for him to remain a cowboy. Close quote cowboy up.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: So let us discuss the question how does Micah Parson's
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: agent saying he did everything he could do to remain
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: a cowboys sound?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: How does that sound? So my thoughts on this.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I've got a little doggie bag, We've got immunity and
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: the melting pot, and we will combine all of these
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: things together and we are going to make some delicious
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: shredded chicken barbecue shredded chickens.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: We're gonna make outstanding. So let's begin with this.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: So David moule geta all right, he comes out here
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: like a whirling dervish, acting like the world's smartest man
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: while playing the world's smallest violin. That's the vibe I
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: got as I saw these quotes bouncing around the echo chamber,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: just trumbling away at the world's smallest violin.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: It's a real sob story.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Real sad, my client, he wanted to be a cowboy,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: he grew up a cowboy.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: As a little child, and he got to live his dream.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: And now he's been sent to Siberia in northern Wisconsin.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: So Sad, try to stay calm, right, try to stay calm.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Of course, we know, based on years of cynical talk radio,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: that this is all nonsense.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: It is pure d C, not DC comics. It is
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: damage control. This is known as saving face. This is
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: positioning Parsons as the what as the helpless defender in
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: distress the victim, because I guess we're getting a little
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: bit away from that.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: But to a boy, for a few years there was
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: a wallowing in victimhood. It was way to go. But
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: it's like Parsons the victim. Here is what it is, right.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: You know Jerry Jones, you know Parsons, the helpless victim.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: And then you got Jerry Jones over here, who's cast
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: as the bad guy with the big black stats and hat,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: like every Western Texan bad guy, get that big black
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: stats and hat. And it's all, of course for what
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: it's for the court, not the kangaroo court, not the
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: real court, not the people's court. That would be the
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: kangaroo court. That is known as public opinion, so the
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: public court. A Classic Agent playbook, move on page seventeen,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: section A of the playbook.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: It's not about football.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: It's not about that. This is about the Q, not Cubert.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: That's an old video game. It's about Q rating, Madison, Avenue, endorsements,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: all of that. You can't be the guy who forced
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: your way out of Dallas, because listen, you gotta sell
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: merch still in Texas, and the you know, the Cowboys
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: are a bit of a religit.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: They're a bit of a religion.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: So it's a Friday night lights on steroids, and the
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: lights usually get turned out on the Cowboys midseason. But
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: if you're the guy who turned your back and said
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: I don't want to play for the Dallas Cowboys, if
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: you're that guy, you are Judas. You are Judas. If
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: you do that, you're done in the Bible belt. They
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: will close the Bible and they will throw it at you,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: is what they will do. So don't kid yourself. Now,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Parsons really wanted to stay in Dallas. If he really
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: wanted to stay in Dallas, guess what, he could have
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: worked it out. There was a path to stay with
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys because the agent didn't want to talk about
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: that because the agent would have been out. But in
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: the real world, the agent represents I've had an agent,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: not a good one. I'm doing overnight still, but I
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: had an agent, all right, and this guy was a
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: total douche the agent that I had back.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: In the day.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: And if Parsons wanted to stay with the cowboys. He
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: could have walked into Jerry Jones office or send him.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: I'd say a text, but I don't know that Jerry text.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: But call him right either call him go to Jerry's office.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Why did you show up to Jerry's office with a
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: nice doggie bag filled with barbecue brisket and a handshake?
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Deal? Done?
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Done, undone done, That's it, You're good. But no, instead
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: we got this guy move aget.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Of the agent.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: And I don't know the guy personally, but my default position,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: based on my experience with people who are agents, is
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: the agent is a puss filled sleeves bag until proven otherwise.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: That's my default position on the agent. They're like those
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: mosquitoes buzzing around a Texas cattle ranch, you know, just.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Everywhere, and they.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Suck every last drop of blood out of you, is
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: what they do. So Parsons he goes from Jerry's world,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: the billion dollar pigskin Kuff Cathedral with the biggest scoreboard,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: the most beautiful cheerleaders were told, the flash, the giant
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: corn dogs, they got in text, all that stuff, and
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: he goes to Green Bay, now juxtaposed Dallas and green Bay,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Green Bay, Wisconsin, and I have a brother who lives there.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: God only knows when he moved there.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: He didn't grow up there, he moved to the I mean,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: who does that my brother, My younger brother moved in
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: the Green Bay area.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: But anyway, having.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: Been there and visited my younger brother, the nicest restaurant
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: is Culver's.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: I love Culver's. I think it's a great restaurant. I
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: wish they would be an advertiser here at Fox Sports Trade.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: I love in cheese kirts. I love the whole menu.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: It's like the in and out of Midwest. But that's
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: the top location. Now, if you want nightlife in Green Bay,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: you want to go out and party, get in some
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: trouble there, there's a couple spotted cows at the Veteran
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: of Foreign Wars Hall.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: You can there's some shows over there, so you can
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: go to that.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: And that's fitting, right, and it's fitting And here's why,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: because in Dallas, Micah Parsons was a star wearing a
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: star on the side of his helmet and all that.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: And Wisconsin he's like a farm hen you ride the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: bicycles with the kids, you're in training camp, you're out
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: there chopping wood.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: You got a chop wood.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of trees in northern Wisconsin, right, I
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: got shovel snow off the driveway and all that stuff.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: It's the land of the cheese curd, the brat and
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: not a lot of glamor not the private jets. There
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: might not be enough room there for the private jets
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: and all that stuff and the biggest show. You go
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: from the biggest show in NFL football to the frozen
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: tundra and listen, listen. It's is a good football town.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Absolutely national fan base. Yes, is as big as the
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Cowboys know. And it's gonna be tough, though. If you
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: want to sell, like I don't know, some products you
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: just can't sell in Green Bay. Like I don't think
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: hairjel sells. I don't think luxury cars. Well, in Green
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Bay you can really get a killer deal with Johnsonville
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Brotz though, So Micah Parsons can put on a get
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: in front of a grill and just get some Johnsonville
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Brotz and he'll be good to go.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Now turning the page on that.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: So the hour of the fallout, if you will, So
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: we own to Dallas. Now we are told the Cowboys
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: The latest reporting is the Cowboys were not worried. They
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: were not concerned about the public perception when they made
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: the decision to trade Micah Parsons. The report said that
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: the whispers that they were unconcerned.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: This is a quote from the report.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: They were unconcerned about the public relations fallout the team
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: with face given how popular Micah Parsons was with the fans.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: So are you surprised?
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Are you surprised the Cowboys were not worried about the
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: fallout from trading a popular player.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Absolutely not. I know we've been over this, but.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: This is the latest stories we react to the news
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: of the day. This is Jerry Jones we're talking about, right,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: And this is not your normal bucker Root.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: It's not.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: The buck doesn't just stop with Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: is literally and figuratively the buck in Dallas, the oil bear,
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: and the Carnival Barker, the man of many hats, the
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: football overlord, all of that, and Jerry believes, and it's
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: hard to argue with him. Jerry believes that the Cowboys
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: are wrapped in teflon. There's a layer of teflon for
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys, their bullet proof. If they were a superhero,
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: they'd be kryptonite proof. And they have full immunity. The
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Cowboys have full immunity to the torches and pitchforks of
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: angry fans.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: In fact, they welcome it. They welcome it.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: They've got some kind of force field around there in
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: the Death Star Jerry's world.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: They've got that, and he doesn't care.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: If people boo orm or throw their cowboy hats right
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: into the dirt. We used to have this guy, Cowboy Dan.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he's even still around. I hope
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: he is, but he used to call the show if
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys won. I love Cowboy Dan to call up
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and say what happened to this trip?
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: But listen, here's the deal.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Jerry's been living in his own reality for roughly thirty years,
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: and the situation is, no matter how mediocre, how low
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: can you go? And the Cowboys have gotten pretty low
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: at times. I noter how many years they go without
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: hoisting up the Lombardi Trophy. They're still there with a
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: license to print money, money, money, right money money, and
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: they haven't sniffed.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: A Super Bowl in a generation and a half.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: So to put that in some context for you, there
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: are young adults going to college right now. Some of
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: them call this show. I don't know why, but they do.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: But they go to college right now. And they were
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: not even born the last time the Cowboys won a championship.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: They're in college. Okay, that's and some of them have
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: guarady graduated from college. It's been that long, and yet
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: they're still the most valuable franchise in the NFL. It's
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: not even really that close. Because Jerry's got the tent,
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: he's got the big ten up there, and he's got
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: the popcorn machines going over to the left and over
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: to the right. The cheerleaders are dancing, they're shaking their
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: pom poms, and the people keep lining up to buy
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: tickets and the Cowboys. Again, we've been through this a bunch.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: But for those that are new to the show, welcome
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys. Not really a football team, they're the NFL's veron.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I guess Disneyland would be a good comp like Cowboys.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Disneyland.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Very similar, overpriced, over hyped, always packed to the rafters,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: very similar situation there. Disneyland and the Cowboys. Now, Dallas
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: could trade. I'm telling you, they could trade Dak Prescott.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Alreay traded Mike Martin, They could trade Dak Prescott. They
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: could bring back Quincy Carter and a line of coke
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: at quarterback, and people would still tune in, They would
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: still watch. In fact, they might watch even more to
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: see what happens, because the Cowboys are really selling an idea, right,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: You're selling an idea is what you're selling. There, America's team,
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: the star, the big stadium, the big scoreboard. Jerry Jones
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: is over the top personality, all that stuff. Bad decisions
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter the brand. You ride for, the brand, the
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: code of the West. You ride for the brand. You
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: do what has to be done, and that's it. So
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: the way Jerry sees it, and a lot of people
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: in sports, the ugly truth is is that we can
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: trade anybody. We'll just spin it and we'll still sell
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: jerseys and we'll still own the headlines. And as long
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: as nobody has apathy, we're good. Now on that note,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: final point, So the last part of this, these things
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: are all related. I mentioned the Cowboys are going to
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: spin it. Well, part of the spin job is going
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: on right now because there's more stories bouncing around the
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: echo chamber that say Michael Parson's behavior during training camp
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: rubbed people in the Cowboy locker room, in the cowboy
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: locker room the wrong way. So how do you see
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: this one? So you know what this is what's known
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: as low hanging fruit. And unfortunately I know how you
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: make the hot dogs. So once you learn how you
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: make the hot dogs, it changes your perspective on these stepistories.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Now you say, in the locker room, does that mean players?
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Does that mean maybe one of the ball boys doesn't
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: like the fact that Michael Parsons was not very polite
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: to him at way. But the reason this low hanging
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: fruit is you've got a star player and you know
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: he's a little loud and big personality and all that stuff.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: And now you've traded them, the players somewhat popular. Suddenly
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: everyone's brave enough after the trade whisper Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: that guy was a douche. You know that guy was
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: a schmuck.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Spoiler alert.
• 16:52

  Speaker 1: those drugs. I wasn't gonna sell those drugs. What are
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: you talking about it?
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: Because we had two houses on the same street, and
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: the police picked me up in front of the other house.
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: But we didn't do anything bad. I ran and I
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: didn't run.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: So yeah, you know, that's a good thing.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I can't run because I literally can't run, so I
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: wouldn't go an all right, Uh, well, what do you
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: call about Alex?
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Though, congratulations on beating the system. Good job by you.
• 31:39
  Speaker 6: Alex definitely sold it, definitely beat it. But look, Michael Parkson's,
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: oh my god, once you start acting like a baby.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: In a teeing on the camera and laying down.
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: I'm a Dihard Cowboys fans in the first grade.
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: I'm thirty seven now.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and once I saw that, I was like, oh God,
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: get him out of here.
• 31:57
  Speaker 6: Who cares about it?
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: So you were seven, you were a little child when
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys won. You do remember, well, you were were
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: old enough. There's seven you should remember, right when you
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: were seven.
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: My brother was a diehard Niners fan and my team
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: was playing his, and I believe my first memory was
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: when they were playing in the playoffs, the Niners the Cowboys.
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: Became a fan.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: All right, I got you, I got you. But you
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: do know like that the way the game play is played, Alex.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Michael Parsons was doing that because
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: he thought that was going to get him the contract
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: with the Cowboys.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: He instead it got him traded.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: But he thought he was gonna he was gonna get
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: a deal based on just acting like a douche and
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: they would give him a contract.
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And that's not how it worked out at all.
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: And I wanted him to say, I'm not gonna lie.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: But you know what, he's injury throne here and I've
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: seen him get pushed around a few times and uh, hey.
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: Get out of here.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: And also in big games, you know this, Alex. Remember
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: the playoff game against the Packers. Ironically, he did nothing
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: in the first half of that game. They got smoked
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: and he did nothing to stop Jordan Love and the
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: Green Bay offense. He was terrible.
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: And that's and that's what I'm saying.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: If you're not if we're not winning, hey, we're going
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: to keep moving stuff around, hopefully until we figured it out.
• 33:02

  Speaker 2: the who am I game in a minute, But first
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: the play of the night. So you go to a
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: baseball game, and uh, well, you go to a fight
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: and a baseball game breaks out. So let's go to
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: a couple of teams plan.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Out the string.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: The Colorado Rockies, baseball's worst team, taking on the Higante's,
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: the Giants, who have been pretty bad after a good start.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: They got together, played a little baseball and Rafiel Devers
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: hit a home run and then all hell broke clues.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Take a listen through to.
• 35:58
  Speaker 9: Win tonight and there'll be a BUZ five their five
• 36:01
  Speaker 9: games out of the final wildcard spot. Devers Sky's wanted
• 36:04
  Speaker 9: to right way up there and gone another one for
• 36:11
  Speaker 9: Raffi Devers.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Oh oh, and Kyle Freeland.
• 36:16
  Speaker 9: The benches are clearing, Devers is trying to round the bases,
• 36:20
  Speaker 9: Freeland is unhappy, and now we got punches being thrown.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Round to the bases. Yeah, so what happened? That was
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: on the NBC Sports Bay Area call. So the Giants
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: and Rockies devs batting against the veteran Kyle Freeland and Devors.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: As you heard, he hit a home run there and.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Devers he wanted to enjoy his work. He would like
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: to observe how great his performance is. Devers. You know
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: one thing Devers loves more than anything is Rafael Devers.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: And so he was trying to.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: Celebrate and freeland the unwritten rules of the game and
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: not like that, And there you go.
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: That is the tire Iraq play of the night. For
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: over forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers find
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: the right tires for how, what and where they drive
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: ship fast end freeback by free road hazard protection with
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: convenient installation options like mobile tire installation ti iraq dot
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: com the way tire buying should be. And because Baseball
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: keeps adding wildcard teams. The Giants are not a good
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: baseball team. They're one game over five hundred, but they
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: have the illusion of contention because of the wild card.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: They have added enough wildcard teams where even mediocre run
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: of the mill teams like the San Francisco Giants think
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: they have a chance in early September, even though they
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: would be the definition of a jat just a team,
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: that's all. They are nothing special, and yet they mathematically
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: have a chance.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: Time now for the payoff on the who am I?
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: Game?
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Green Bays Micah Parsons the NFL's highest paid non quarterback
