Did you know in the nineteen forties 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:24.680 the Phillies like almost and actually did sort of change 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:28.280 their name to the Blue Jays. Interesting a fan contest 0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:30.280 was held to find a new nickname because the team 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:34.160 was so terrible, had spent literal decades of losing, were 0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:37.440 a punchline to all the other Major League Baseball clubs. 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:42.240 So missus Elizabeth Crooks submitted the name blue Jays, the 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:45.840 team designed and actually used and had a blue Jay 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:51.280 patch on their uniform for two seasons, but the uniform 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.640 still said Phillies on the front. So while they were 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:56.480 sort of the blue Jays, they weren't the blue Jays. 0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.040 And then they ended up winning the Pennan in nineteen 0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.280 fifty they did the blue Jay and leaned into the 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.240 Phillies fully once again. 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:08.840 It's interesting. Yesterday when we were walking around the stadium, 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:12.640 I noticed and remembered that at the turn of the 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:18.080 last century, the Brooklyn Dodgers were named the Brooklyn Superbus, 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:21.280 which is a pretty interesting name. 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:23.880 I kind of like it better than the Dodgers. 0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:27.680 Oh come, man, the Superbas no hats and the Superbus. 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:31.640 It is superb. How good are you? We're not good. 0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:36.479 See we're superb, that's how good. I was like, who 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:38.960 the hell are the Superbus? I know they had the 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:42.080 B on the hat, but the name of the team 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.960 was the the Superbas. 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.039 Or the in cred Ables in cray able. 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:53.040 All right, it is time for criicckets. Everybody coming this crickets. 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:54.479 Come make it quick, y'all. 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:03.119 Oh yeah, last night a very special night in the city. 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:05.839 And to see you DoD Dodgers and Phillies in the 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:11.160 NLDS Game one Sunday in the city of brotherly loved Lawyers. 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:13.680 One of the greatest baseball players that any of us 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:15.839 have ever seen. In fact, he is the greatest baseball 0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:18.279 player any of us have ever seen. It's hard not 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.640 to take it for granted. Show Al Toddy, we'll be 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:24.840 on the mound in the series opener. Here is Dave 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:28.800 Roberts after the win versus the Reds last night, very 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:32.320 happy while they were partying in the batting cages, not 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:33.800 in the clubhouse area. 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:37.320 You know, guys stayed positive, stayed within in themselves, kept 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:40.680 taking good at bats, and you know, Yoshi stepped up, 0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:43.279 you know, once again, and Addison pitches that first inning, 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.880 but you know he was locked in and for him 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:49.320 to get us into the seventh was huge, and us 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:53.800 tack on offensively, defensively, we're playing great, and you know 0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:55.839 it's good to see Rookie finish that game too. 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:57.880 Is Rokie your closer now? 0:05:58.120 --> 0:05:58.320 Yeah? 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.039 I trust and he's gonna be pitching and leverage. So 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.560 that was you know, the more you pitch guys and 0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:08.360 play guys, you learn more. So like I said about Yamamoto, 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:09.840 I don't think the moment's going to be too big 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:10.320 for rookie. 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.560 I mean every year is different. But how far do 0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:15.359 you think this team can go? And would you like 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:16.960 to get back to the World Series and play the 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:17.679 Yankees again? 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:21.160 I think we can. We can win it all. I 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.080 think we're equipped to do that. We certainly have the pedigree, 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:26.919 we certainly have the hunger. We're playing great baseball, and 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:29.520 in all honesty, I don't care who we play, I 0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:31.360 just want to, you know, be the last team standing. 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:33.640 Just what have you seen out of the offense the 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:37.320 last couple of nights to kind of keep piling on runs, 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.520 finding different ways to score like they did kind of 0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.119 in and then the later innings today. 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:45.640 I think that what we're seeing is, you know, winning pitches, 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:51.200 using the whole field, fighting and you know, not trying 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:54.599 to just slug. I think we're taking team at bats, 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:59.960 situation Situationally, we've been fantastic and even roared at the bottom. 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:04.080 You know, whether it's a sacrifice, the fight to slap 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.279 an O two double to the other way to get 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.680 on base. You know, we're just doing things, whether it's 0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:10.600 a sack fly, we're doing whatever it takes. Even show 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:14.920 hey in the situation getting a guy over to allow 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:18.320 set the stage for Mookie. So just team baseball, team at. 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:20.560 Bets and then in that eighth inning, just kind of 0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.080 what were you seeing at an Emmett, What prompted you 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:25.840 to kind of make the move there, and kind of 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:27.800 how do you view him going forward after this? 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.200 You know, I just yeah, I mean, I still I 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:33.840 trust him. It was his first kind of real cracket 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:38.840 kind of late leverage. He wasn't sharp, but I believe 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:40.960 in him, I really do. And I think for me, 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:44.440 is you know, to think that he can get through 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:48.680 Benson although he had count leverage, to then feel like 0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:50.560 he can get through mcclaim, he would have been over 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:52.880 thirty pitches, and I just didn't think the stuff was 0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:55.040 a sharp And so for me, I just kind of 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.000 had a gut feeling that, you know, give Vessie a 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.400 chance to get count leverage versus Andrew Hall or if 0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:03.840 they leave Benson in And I liked him against McClean 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.320 and then Freedom, So that's kind of my thought. And 0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.440 you know, but Emmatt did a fine job. It's just 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:11.760 kind of just it just wasn't sharp tonight. 0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:15.240 Mookie's turn around this year has just been kind of insane. 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:17.600 Can you just kind of talk about what kind of 0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:20.360 player he is to have that start and then now 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:22.640 come through like he always has and be one of 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:23.720 the best players in the world. 0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:26.480 I think it started when he just kind of just 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.840 gave up on chasing, you know, having a career year, 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:33.560 you know, chasing an MVP or whatever it was. I 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.760 think he just kind of was resolved to just let 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:40.240 that go, play for the present and the future and 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:42.480 play to help the team win. And I think that 0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:44.600 just took a little bit a lot of pressure off him, 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:48.000 and then everything kind of unveiled and he got to 0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:49.800 be the player that he was and freed himself up. 0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:52.040 And so, yeah, he's playing fantastic baseball. 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:56.200 That's a good amount of stuff, meaty, but full of 0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:57.000 great information. 0:08:57.320 --> 0:08:59.360 We need to have it. We need to get everybody 0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:06.840 ready for the Dodgers. JJ Reddick, says Lebron Jays Terryo 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:12.479 Marcus Smarts. Kleeber will not play in the Laker preseason 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:15.680 game tomorrow versus the Suns in Palm Desert. 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.880 The hell I bought my great grandparents tickets to that. 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:23.480 They will still see the premier player for your Los 0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:27.840 Angeles Lakers and the franchise player, which is Luka Doncic, 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:29.360 face of the league. 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:30.920 According to DeAndre Ayton. 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.320 Could end up being a point of contention for a 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:39.000 jealous and petty Lebron James and Lebron James camp. 0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:39.960 We can only hope. 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:46.119 I know Lebron's battling a glute injury, but if I'm Genie, 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:48.559 I can't be happy that we're going on this tour 0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:53.440 around Southern California Vegas, doing the whole preseason thing, putting 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:55.920 the Lakers out there on display, and Lebron's gonna be 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:57.680 riding the bench with the sun. 0:09:58.760 --> 0:09:59.920 Well, his son might pleasure. 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:01.920 It's probably gonna play a lot, oh boy, And I 0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:05.679 would wonder, as he has shared on multiple podcasts and 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:09.560 with multiple interviews, on multiple interviews, now is he going 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:12.360 to be out there swinging the club in Palm Desert? 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.040 Is it going to be trying to get out, you know, 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.840 on one of those fancy courses all the Lakha or 0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:22.440 something of the Madison Club, one of those fancy. 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:24.040 Morning side exclusive spots. 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:28.160 Not good enough to play in an exhibition game for 0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.880 three minutes, but good enough the cruise around in play eighteen. 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:35.160 Well, we'll see what happens with the Laker preseason tomorrow. 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:37.640 In the desert, people said, if you ever get into 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:39.920 the game and the Bob grab you is over it, 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:42.240 Bud grab me.

He's he's and all all 0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:36.680 facets of of quarterback play, you know, really really really 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:43.400 good dual threat or uh just great really good threat. 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:47.520 Yeah, that's a twenty Memphis is both for herb to 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:51.120 improve in terms of his speed and just his ability 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:51.920 to get out. 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:55.600 There's nothing there in terms of he's always had that talent. 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:02.440 He's he's very athletic, and it impacts the game in 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:03.520 a positive way for us. 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.720 What can you say about his performance on Sunday being 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:09.520 of course Sacks developing. 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:14.559 Yeah, spectacular, Uh, the way he impacted the game and 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:20.440 and just really really good, really consistent, you know, the 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:25.960 four sacks, the pressures, the the way he impacted the game. 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:31.320 Probably unfortunately got a little lost, you know, uh because 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:34.960 we didn't win the game. But yeah, he was he 0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:38.160 was somebody that was, uh, you know, played really well. 0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:41.400 A little bit of an understated Jim Harbaugh. This week 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:45.880 gonna be a great quarterback matchup. USC has a bye week, 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:48.440 u c l A home on Saturday versus Penn State 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:51.360 Nitney lyons Or only a twenty five and a half 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:55.840 point favorite. Uh, that line might move though, now that 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:57.320 the blueout has been announced. 0:14:57.440 --> 0:14:59.680 Could could go up the twenty seven and a half. 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:04.000 I thought it would go the other way. But now 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:07.000 this is what we had Don McClain on to talk about, 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.640 and he's gonna come on in the next segment the 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:10.920 NCUBLEA Tournament. 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:11.200 Matt. 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:14.920 Yeah, they have talked about expansion and it sounds like 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.000 now it's gonna happen. It's not finalized, but the proposed 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:21.920 format with the television partners is to expand from sixty 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:25.760 eight to seventy six eight games expected, and they will 0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:27.960 add it to what is known as the First four. 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:32.400 It'll become the First eight set of four games featuring 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:36.120 the four lowest seeded automatic qualifiers and the last four 0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:39.560 at large teams in the NCAA tournament field. The new 0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:42.240 first twelve, actually they're going to add eight, would be 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:46.200 referred to as the opening round, So you get twenty 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:50.520 four teams playing in twelve games over the first two days. 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:54.640 They would take place at two different sites, but a 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:57.120 way to get out of what's really some pretty ho 0:15:57.320 --> 0:16:00.640 hum matchups in the first four might have one or 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:03.280 two good ones in there to what could be a 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.360 full on, full fledged get to Vegas a day early 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:07.680 first round of the tournament. 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:11.200 So we'll see how that plays out. And we haven't 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:16.960 talked hockey well in weeks, maybe months, but here we are. 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:18.840 Thanks for talking to hockey. 0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:25.760 The Anaheim Ducks have extended Jackson Lacon keep part of 0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:29.880 their rebuilding team and a long term contract extension Lacombe 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:34.760 Lacombie Lacon twenty four sogn an eight year deal, however 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:37.200 you pronounce his name, carries a nine million dollar average 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:38.800 annual day that would sugest he's one of the best 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.760 players in the league. It is the largest contract ever 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:44.600 given out by the Anaheim Ducks. 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:50.600 Congratulations to the Ducks. Maybe inspired by the Organ Ducks 0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:52.000 and the amount of money that they spend. 0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:53.760 That's fair. 0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:55.040 Probably not who. 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.280 Think spends more money? That's a great question. The Anaheim 0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:01.120 Ducks Are the Oregon Ducks the Organ Ducks? 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:05.560 Yeah, you think so, though, No, I don't know. I mean, well, 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:08.000 the Organ how much they spend in nil is not 0:17:08.200 --> 0:17:12.240 officially disclosed, so it's kind of hard to tell. 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:15.480 The Anaheim Ducks in twenty twenty. No, it is definitely 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:17.720 the Anaheim Ducks. They are going to spend eighty two 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:21.520 million dollars on players for the twenty five to twenty 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:23.680 six season. Do you think they would spend eighty two 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:25.200 million bucks on players at Oregon? 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:29.000 Yes, all right, maybe it's the Organ Duck. 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:31.560 But I don't know. I don't know for sure. When 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:33.520 I found out how much the long snapper made at 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:35.760 Michigan State, my head almost rolled off my shoulder. 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:37.480 He's a hell of a launch snapper though. 0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:40.520 Yeah, but still, you know, guys did that for free 0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:44.480 for years, not anymore.

I'm wondering Pee and 0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:54.040 you and I talked about it off the ear if 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:57.560 people have noticed that you've forgot not for good, but 0:19:58.600 --> 0:20:00.800 not including one of the top as I used to have. 0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:02.680 And I guess we should address it now that I'm 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:08.120 no longer doing the Clipper shows. Unfortunately contract was renewed, 0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:11.119 and yes they're moving in a different direction. But I 0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:13.000 just want to say, you know, I work with so 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:14.960 many great people on that show. I did it for 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:18.679 over twenty years, starting with half John Heffner, who all 0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:22.080 your listeners know, Micah King and those guys in the 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:24.840 front office, if you will, but a lot of camera people, 0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:26.919 people on air that I worked with, a lot of 0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:29.679 people behind the scenes. We did really good work for 0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:32.240 a long time. And as you guys know, the business 0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:34.840 is changing, and the Clipper shows have changed hands a 0:20:34.840 --> 0:20:37.600 couple of times already, and so not surprising that they're 0:20:38.160 --> 0:20:39.960 going in a different direction. But I just wanted to 0:20:39.960 --> 0:20:43.240 make sure that I thanked all those people that I 0:20:43.280 --> 0:20:45.760 work with for so long, especially Darryl Lewis, who produced 0:20:45.760 --> 0:20:48.000 that show for almost as long as I was on it. 0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:50.879 Did a great job and still continues to do a 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:54.520 great job on angels and other stuff he does. But yeah, 0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:56.640 we're moving on. I won't miss the drive, but I'll 0:20:56.640 --> 0:20:57.560 miss a lot of the people. 0:20:58.160 --> 0:20:59.800 Yeah, well, out of yeah, I was going to say 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:01.960 that drive down the one A line. 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:03.840 It was one of the reasons to watch. It was 0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:06.400 really the main reason to watch Clipper basketball. 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:10.320 Yeah, to watch Don McClain and his insights before and 0:21:10.480 --> 0:21:14.000 middle and after the game, and especially back when there 0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:17.119 was different left leadership and Don used to do the 0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:20.360 fourth quarter or do a different quarter with Ralph Lawler. 0:21:21.160 --> 0:21:23.240
