- 1:58Speaker 2: The polar Wight goes the Yankee manager, Aaron Boone, who,
- 2:02Speaker 2: because of the bogus and overrated pitch count, may have
- 2:05Speaker 2: single handedly cost the Yankees the American League East and
- 2:09Speaker 2: the playoffs. Wednesday, he takes out Cam Schlittler with a
- 2:14Speaker 2: two hit, four nothing shutout lead in the seventh and
- 2:18Speaker 2: the Yanks lose to the White Sox six to five.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Does Boone learn No? The very next game, he takes
- 2:25Speaker 2: out Ryan Weathers with a three hit shutout after seven innings,
- 2:30Speaker 2: and the Yanks lose again to the White Sox. And
- 2:32Speaker 2: then two games later, I'm telling you this guy never learns.
- 2:36Speaker 2: He takes out Max Freed with a one out in
- 2:39Speaker 2: the sixth after allowing only two hits in one run,
- 2:43Speaker 2: and the Yanks lose again, five to two to the Cubs.
- 2:46Speaker 2: Instead of three losses, I'll tell you what, with another manager,
- 2:51Speaker 2: it may have been three wins. Hey, here was the
- 2:54Speaker 2: worst excuse of the year. Former Cowboy quarterback and see
- 3:00Speaker 2: number one NFL analyst Tony Romo, after being pulled over
- 3:05Speaker 2: and arrested by Wisconsin police officers for driving while intoxicated
- 3:11Speaker 2: with an open bottle of alcohol in the passenger seat
- 3:15Speaker 2: and passing cars while driving in the right side of
- 3:20Speaker 2: the distress lane during rush hour. Romo's excuse, I had
- 3:27Speaker 2: zero drinks. I was on my way to see my grandmother. Well,
- 3:35Speaker 2: i'll tell you what, that's pretty good, except Romo's grandparents
- 3:38Speaker 2: have been deceased since shoot twenty twenty four.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Oh god, I've noticed since they decided to suspend him.
- 3:48Speaker 1: As the broadcast people are saying, Oh, he's really not
- 3:52Speaker 1: good in the booths anyway, what's your opinion of his
- 3:54Speaker 1: style in the booth, Well.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I was not a big fan of his No, not
- 4:01Speaker 2: at all. JJ Watt will take his place and see
- 4:05Speaker 2: what happens. Hey, here's a Speaking of NFL, a recent
- 4:11Speaker 2: poll listed the greatest running backs of all time, including
- 4:16Speaker 2: Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, and the all time
- 4:19Speaker 2: leading rusher EMMITTT. Smith. I don't know about you, guys,
- 4:23Speaker 2: but I would go with Jim Brown, who never missed
- 4:26Speaker 2: the game, won the NFL rushing title eight of us
- 4:29Speaker 2: nine years, averaged over one hundred yards a game for
- 4:34Speaker 2: nine years. Five yards of carry, five yards of carry,
- 4:38Speaker 2: two carries, and it's the first down. And keep in
- 4:41Speaker 2: mind in an era when he played that, he only
- 4:44Speaker 2: had twelve and fourteen game seasons, not seventeen like today.
- 4:50Speaker 2: But you know what, again, it all depends where did
- 4:52Speaker 2: you grow up and what era. So if you're from Chicago,
- 4:57Speaker 2: it's Walter Payton was the best. If you're from Detroit,
- 4:59Speaker 2: Barry Sanders, if you're from Dallas, Emmitt Smith. If you're
- 5:04Speaker 2: from Philadelphia in the nineteen forties and fifties, you remember
- 5:09Speaker 2: this guy. There was no better than Steve Van Buren.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Van Larry Now one, if you're from Buffalo, is it? O? J. Simpson?
- 5:20Speaker 2: No, it's Derman Thomas.
- 5:23Speaker 1: All right. I just say, you know he's been wiped
- 5:25Speaker 1: out of everything. O. J. Simpson.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, here is the stooge of the week. Celeste Keating,
- 5:34Speaker 2: the owner of the w NBA Seattle Storm, who was
- 5:38Speaker 2: suspended five games after verbally chastising two teenage girls who
- 5:45Speaker 2: held up signs at the Storm Fever game, thanking Indiana
- 5:50Speaker 2: Fever player Sophie Cunningham, who stood up against transgender men
- 5:55Speaker 2: playing in women's sports. Hey, Celeste, who by the way,
- 6:00Speaker 2: is married to her co owner, Lisa Brummel, Let's bring
- 6:05Speaker 2: in some transgender men into the NBA and watch him
- 6:09Speaker 2: crash the boards for a rebound or a putback against
- 6:13Speaker 2: women players. It would not be a pretty sight, not
- 6:17Speaker 2: at all.
- 6:18Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. I'm so glad you brought this up.
- 6:20Speaker 3: I love Sophie Cunningham, I just love. I love that
- 6:24Speaker 3: she made that statement, got all the blowback, and then
- 6:26Speaker 3: came out and said I said what I said, and
- 6:29Speaker 3: she stood by it. That was wonderful. I've liked her
- 6:32Speaker 3: back from when she was the enforcer that went after
- 6:36Speaker 3: anybody that tried to hurt Caitlin Clark. She's she's got
- 6:40Speaker 3: such a great personality. She's becoming a star of the WNBA.
- 6:44Speaker 3: I watch fever games just for her, not for Kitlin Clark.
- 6:48Speaker 2: Well, she loves you too, Larry, but I know that
- 6:54Speaker 2: I don't care for she don't care for Curtis, but she.
- 7:01Speaker 3: Well, that's a lot of people.
- 7:03Speaker 1: But I noticed this issue is attracting a lot of
- 7:08Speaker 1: attention to the WNBA, both for and against, which just
- 7:12Speaker 1: hipes the box office and hypes the ratings.
- 7:16Speaker 2: Yep, absolutely they You know, they had this fake brawl
- 7:22Speaker 2: and yesterday's Cleveland Arizona game, the pitcher for Cleveland, Gavin Williams,
- 7:29Speaker 2: had a no hitter in the top of the sixth
- 7:33Speaker 2: and the Arizona guy, Tim two bunted. It was a
- 7:37Speaker 2: foul ball, and then he got a base hit and
- 7:39Speaker 2: the benches emptied. But as usual a normal baseball fight,
- 7:45Speaker 2: no punches were thrown. First of all, it was out
- 7:49Speaker 2: of line. There were four more innings to go for
- 7:52Speaker 2: a no hitter. It's not like the guy bunted with
- 7:55Speaker 2: two outs in a ninth. This was really Cleveland's fault
- 7:58Speaker 2: for starting this and I know there's an unwritten rule
- 8:03Speaker 2: you don't bunt when a guy is a no hitter,
- 8:05Speaker 2: but not the sixth inning.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Come on, let's face it, how many ballplayers nowadays even
- 8:11Speaker 1: know how to bunt? So that's an amazing, amazing and
- 8:15Speaker 1: accomplishment to begin with.
- 8:16Speaker 2: That's right, you're right. The hit and run and the bunt.
- 8:20Speaker 1: It's gone Wanta, same time, same place, elect next week.
- 8:26Speaker 1: We appreciate it, but we got to segue you out
- 8:28Speaker 1: and the risk
