  Speaker 1: Text the word texas followed by your questioner comment to
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: eight one five three zero. Again, you text the word
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: texas followed by your question comment to eight one five
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: three zero. Standard messaging and data rates may apply. Now,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: just a couple other notes on this world series, then
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: we'll move on to some football things. I pointed out
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: that that's how that fifthening comeback happened for the Dodgers
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: from down five to nothing to coming back and tying
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: the score with the two innings, and also, excuse me,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: the two errors and then also Garrett Cole not covering
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: the back at first. Later there was a ball called
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: and they just they wound up with three errors total
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: in the ball game. And after the game, first you
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: had the the captain obvious moment when Aaron Judge was
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: asked about the era in the fifth end, he goes,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: that didn't happen.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: We get a different story tonight. Yeah, maybe maybe so. Yeah,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: So there was there was that to that, and I
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: mentioned I.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Think it's important to point out that Garrett Cole looked
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: like he recovered himself after the two errors, the one
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the one by judging, the one by Vulpi. He struck
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: out Gavin lux on four pitches, including a ninety nine
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: mile an hour fastball. He struck out show A Otani
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: on four pitches. Otani chased a curveball outside, so it
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: looked like he was gonna get out of it. Mookie
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Betts that squibbler that he hit off his bat. It
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: was forty nine miles an hour dribbling out toward first
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and because it bounced to Anthony Rizzo with so much spin,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: he didn't charge it. He stayed back to make the play.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: The glove it cleanly, which of course meant he needed
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Cole to cover first base to get Bets, but col
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: didn't finished the run. Garrett Cole's quote was, I took
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: a bad angle to the ball. I wasn't sure really
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: off the bout how hard he hit it. I took
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: a direct angle to it, as if to cut it
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: off because I didn't know. I just didn't know how
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: hard he hit it. By the time the ball got
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: by me, I was not in position to cover first
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Neither of us were based on the spin of the
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: baseball and him having to secure. It just a bad
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: read off the bat. But again they scored their first
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: run because of that, which went down to the box,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: scores an infield single. But then Freeman comes up with
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: a two run single, and then taoskcar Nanda's with a
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: two run double judge again, another captain obvious comment. You
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: can't give them extra outs like that. They're going to capitalize,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: especially with the top of the order. They don't miss.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah to the deal. They opened the door and the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Dodgers went through that, all right. The other the other
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: thing about that is it had the Yankees won that game,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: as we pointed out, had they sent it back to
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles, they would have been the first team to
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: force a game six after being down three.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Games to none.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Instead, the Dodgers became the first team in Major League
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: history to overcome a deficit of five or more runs
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: in a series, deciding game to be down five to
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: nothing going into the fifth and the back when that's
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the first time that's happened in baseball. So there's all
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: sorts of little things about that. It was the Dodgers'
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: eighth World championship, seven of those in Los Angeles, the
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: one in Brooklyn, here's another couple of little weird OCD
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: footnotes on my part as a Dodger fan, died, I
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: want them to sweep them. Yes, but but there's kind
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of some synergy in them and compartmentalization in them winning
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: in five game. She see, the Dodgers had beaten the
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Yankees in seven games when they were in Brooklyn in
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: fifty five. They swept them in four sixty three. By
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the way, Yankees have never swept the Dodgers. But so Brooklyn,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers won in seven of the Yankees in fifty
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: five they won in four straight, and sixty three they
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: won in six games.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: In eighty one. They had never beaten the Yankees in five.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Now they have.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: So there was that little weird footnote to come out
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: of it. And yes, as I mentioned, the Dodgers won
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: eight World tizing. Yankees won twenty seven, more than any
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: team in any sport, twenty seven World championships. It is
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: fair to point out now they've lost fourteen World Series
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: so and four of those to the Dodgers. So when
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Yankee fans say, hey, we won twenty seven World time,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: yes they did, and a lot of those were in
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the twenties and thirties and forties and fifties. They haven't
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: won one in fifteen years, but of course they had
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: that great run in the nineties as well, and that's
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: what they're trying to build back to. But the question
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: will be will they have all of the parts the
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: heavy duty rumors seemed to be that one SODA's not
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: going to be there, that he's going to go to
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the highest bidder at this point, So we'll see on that.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: So those were a couple of footnotes about that World
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Series and then and as I mentioned, some might have
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: been shocked with how it wound up being the way
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: that it did, and maybe it shouldn't have been that
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: shocking because the Yankees kind of struggled defensively throughout the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: course of the year. Now, they covered up a lot
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: of it by I think Karl Ravits from ESPN put
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: in this way, said they bludgeoned people. So it covered
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: up a lot of those mistakes. But against a very
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: fundamentally sound team in a high pressure environment, it showed up.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: So anyway, that's some up there with regard to the
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: World Series. And again, if you have feedback on that
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: and get to that. So it's Halloween, do you have
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a favorite candy growing up? Trigger treating when you would
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: go out trick or treating, and this this is a
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: good question for the text line that not just what's
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: your favorite candy? I'm asking when you went out trick
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: or treating, what's and and you had that sack to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: get your stuff on a pillow case or whatever, and
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: you got all that candy in there, what was the
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: one that you wanted to pull out and eat right away?
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: And what was the one you didn't care if you
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: got any more of those ever again, and would either
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: give them away or throw them out.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: So for me, yeah, go first, Uh, don't celebrate Halloween,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: never did so, never did trick or treat. But my
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: favorite candy growing up probably would be I still say.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Rece's, even though it's Reese's, Reese's Reese's peanut butter cups
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: or the Reese's pieces, the peanut butter cups.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, not a big fan of the pieces, Okay, but.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: The peanut butter cups. Yeah, that's that's my kryptonite.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Crag. It's good, It's really good.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: I could go, I could go through a pack and
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: during the holidays, yeah, I mean, they look for any
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: excuse to make the market. They'll do like the Christmas
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: tree ones, Yeah, funny ones.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like the snowman ones or the.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be like a big it'll be just like
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: a bigger peanut butter.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Cup pumpkin ones that does shaped like a pumpkin and
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Halloween even though it's chocolate peanut butter.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: And then they'll do the white chocolate ones. Yeah. Yeah.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: And now I'm going to huld be the night. And
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: well we told tomorrow when everything's on sale, right, isn't
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: that the.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, that's that's that's good. That's very smart of you. Yeah,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: going going to do that. For me, it was always
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: a Snickers. I think if there was just one regular
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: run of the mill all time go to candy bar.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: For me, it was always a Snickers because it had
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: a little bit of everything in chocolate, peanut butter or
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: peanut caramel, nougat, had all that kind of stuff. Everyone
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Tom Harmon was the coach, used to say and they
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: asked him one's favorite Halloween candy was and he said
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: anything with.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: New It nugat. He was in. He was in that
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: he liked nuked for that. All right.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Uh, college football note, I've got a note coming up
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: on something weird. We started to get into it yesterday,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: but I'm gonna I'll get into greater.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: I'll get into a greater detail in this coming up.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: And inconceivable.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: However, there's a really big college football game this weekend.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: And it's not Florida Georgia. It's not even Ohios State
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: penn Stake. I mean that those are big games for sure.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: It's Pittsburgh and SMU. Pitt and SMU playing in Dallas.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: And we mentioned yesterday there were a lot of fans
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: that were grumbling about this thing that's going to wind
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: up on ACC Network instead of on one of the
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: regular linear ESPN family of networks. But it is going
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: to be on ACC Network. Well, good news for both programs.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Eli Holstein, the Panthers quarterback, is going to be available
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: to go. He had gotten banged up in the winter
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: for Syracuse last week and he has been cleared so
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: he will play. And in addition to that, SMU got
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: good news as well. Kevin Jennings. He took a big
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: hit to the knee in the win over Duke. He
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: had been listed as questionable, but pet Tamil reporting that
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Jennings is expected to try and play against Pittsburgh. He
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: still needs to be clear for contact, but he practiced
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: this week in a limited capacity. He's the guy who
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: started the season as the backup to Preston Stone stepped
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: into the starting role. He's the guy at quarterback South
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Olkcliff to the back to back state championships, Kevin Jennings.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: So it looks like he will be ready to go
• 9:54
