Become one of those coaches administrators 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.000 that you can be leaned on by other kids and 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:49.120 student athletes.

Why the eighteen ninety three 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:21.800 game between Army Navy was hotly contested and there was 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.000 an argument afterwards between an Army general and a Navy 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:29.280 rear admiral and they almost got into a duel. They 0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:32.480 almost killed each other over it, and it was highly 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:36.440 publicized and it really upset the president, the commander in 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.839 chief at the time, Grover Cleveland, and he was so 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:46.080 upset that Cleveland banned the game and he started to 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:52.919 ban in eighteen ninety four. In eighteen ninety eight it 0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:57.840 didn't play either, okay, but Teddy Roosevelt got elected new 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.240 president and he pushed to have it stored. In eighteen 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:05.240 ninety nine, the Army Navy game came back despite that 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:08.919 rear admiral and a general in the Army getting in 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.680 a near duel. Now, the game was off for a 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:15.479 little while during World War One and then some eligibility 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:20.000 disputes in the late twenties, but it has become a 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.000 continued tradition annually. 0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.599 Eligibility disputes. Why he had juco guys who were in 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:26.720 eld nineteen thirty. 0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:30.360 Well, in the late twenties they had eligibility dispute, so 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:33.479 they probably said, like say that guy can't come back 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.480 from the front in France and plays twenty eight years old, 0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:39.120 gotcha or something like that. They've got in a fight 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:40.799 over who should be able to play in a game. 0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:45.920 But it's a continued tradition since nineteen thirty and it'll 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:46.600 be great again. 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.320 Well, thank you to Teddy Roosevelt for bringing him back 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.280 the rough rider himself. Cooler heads prevailed four years later. 0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:55.360 No thank you to grow over Cleveland well, I mean, 0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:01.000 they don't make a political president Army. He's not political. 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.039 He was scared that somebody was gonna get killed over it. 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:04.000 Oh was that bad? 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:07.200 Well, they was gonna be in a duel. They're gonna 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:09.600 pull guns and shoot each other. You know, It's one 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.520 thing to have Avery Johnson's parents fighting after the Kansas 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.920 State game in Dublin. It's a whole other thing to 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:19.040 have a National Army Navy game and the two sides 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:20.440 shoot at each other afterwards. 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:25.280 In our own military corrections and retraction, it wasn't his parents, 0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:28.120 it was his brother and his dad. All right, I'm sorry, 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.240 And the brother was down in the street. You're right 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:35.560 in the cutter time for quick hits. Somebody ms quick hits. 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:42.360 Come make it quick, y'all? Oh yeah. 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:46.000 Former Michigan coach Sharon Moore was arraigned today in court 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.280 and is all whites. He faces charges of felony home 0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:53.480 invasion in the third degree, misdemeanor stalking, and misdemeanor breaking 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:56.440 and entering. Felony home invasion carries up to five years 0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:59.520 in prison and a two thousand dollars fine. Stalking one 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.920 year at one thousand dollars fine. Breaking and entering up 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:06.480 to ninety days in jail in a five hundred dollars fine. 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:08.560 His video and is in a small room where he's 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:13.960 wearing a white jail issued outfit, and the prosecutors alleging 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.200 that Moore broke into the victims home before grabbing several 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:19.960 butter knives and finding kitchen shears, and at that point 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:22.560 is alleged to threaten to kill himself, blaming the victim 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:26.160 for ruining his life. According to the prosecutor, More said, 0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:29.400 I'm gonna kill myself. I'm gonna make you watch. My 0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:33.079 blood is on your hands. You ruined my life. Here 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:37.640 is Charger head coach Jim Harbaugh, who endorsed Sharon today 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:40.760 on Sharon's situation at Michigan. 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:41.520 Still processing that. 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:43.520 That heard that. 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:46.880 Chad Jessp told me one of our equipment guys when 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:53.240 we're coming off the field on Thursday. So it is 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:54.760 still processing that, like a lot of people. 0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:57.599 I'm sure as you can imagine, Jim's not going to 0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:01.040 say a lot skill at this on a playout, I 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:05.800 can imagine. Yeah, it's it's the tough seeing Petros forty 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:07.840 eight hours ago. This guy is the head coach in 0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:11.760 Michigan and today he's wearing a white jumpsuit in a 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:14.679 tiny little room on a video talking to it all 0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:19.280 collapsed down. I mean, unreal, just unbelieving this happens more 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:23.280 than people would be comfortable knowing. Now, if you are 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:26.079 a recruit going to Michigan, Let's say you're Brady Smigel, 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.400 the quarterback at Newbury Park, and you're you're set to 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.320 go there in a few weeks as an early enrollee. 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:32.640 Are you still going? 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:36.000 They're probably gonna try to hold their stuff together, and 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:39.240 they're gonna do that with money. They're gonna hold together 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:42.199 their empire with money because Michigan has money. You know 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:45.840 who else has money? The Dodgers. They introduced Eddie Diaz 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:50.040 Sugar Daz to the LA media. Today is a new 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.560 closer for the Dodgers. You'll hear from Daz coming up 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:57.000 at seven o'clock with David Vasse on Dodger Talk. You 0:09:57.080 --> 0:10:00.560 will also hear Brandon Goalmes in the very next segment, 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.120 as we caught up with him a little bit earlier 0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:06.360 the Dodger GM on your Dodger Station. The Lakers are 0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:09.199 seventeen and seven. We talked to Sliwa last hour good 0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:13.520 conversation there in Phoenix on Sunday to face the Suns, 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:16.000 and the Clippers, who are likely to lose every time 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.880 they take the floor, are six and nineteen, and they're 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:23.079 off until Monday when they host the Memphis Grizz Clippers. 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:25.640 Apparently this is really sad case. 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:28.480 I had to include it any quick hits Petros in 0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:30.600 the last twenty four hours. It came to light after 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.880 the loss in Houston last night to the Rockets. Ty 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.880 Lu didn't speak to the media, and some people who 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:41.080 cover the team on social media but don't travel say, hey, way, well, 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:44.559 where's the video, where's Tylu talking to the media postgame? 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:46.880 There is no did he blow off the media? And 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:50.080 the Clippers said no, Tylu was available. There just was 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:55.679 no traveling members of any media organization there last night 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.000 to talk to him and ask him questions postgame. That 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:01.560 is a sad commentation. No La Times, no daily news, 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:03.160 no local TV. 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:06.800 That's a sad commentary on the Clippers, but it's also 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:13.360 a sad commentary of the shape and state of local 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:17.319 sports news because that's pathetic. 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:20.520 I mean, if this is se playing in a game 0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:24.880 football wise, there's tons of media there Pingolore's going to 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.600 Orlando to cover the winter meetings. Tell me to think 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.480 of it. Ain't got that pain. He's covering winter meetings 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:32.800 where usually nothing happened. 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:35.520 Well, maybe they ought to send Pinglore, then they should. 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.160 The Chargers are nine and four. They're on a plane 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.320 with Matt Smith coming off of win over the Eagles 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:43.600 on Monday Night Football. They're going to Kansas City.

What was it 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:56.480 that you guys circled him on your board and wanted 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:58.840 him to be that back into the bullpen kind of guy. 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:04.240 Yeah, I mean the track record of dominance and having 0:19:04.280 --> 0:19:07.480 done it on the biggest stage obviously in New York, 0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:13.200 and then also being it firsthand in the postseason. That's 0:19:13.240 --> 0:19:16.800 first and foremost. And then you know, you start digging 0:19:16.840 --> 0:19:20.720 on the just the person and the character and what 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:24.000 he brings to the table and from a clubhouse perspective 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:29.000 and mentoring younger guys in his ability to go out 0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:33.000 there and take the ball like whenever the team asks 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:37.280 in order to help him win. You know, really selfless 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:40.200 type guy that fits in with our other superstars with 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:45.080 no ego, so that that total package was incredibly appealing. 0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.119 You have the opportunity to add that talent and then 0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:50.639 also that person in the clubhouse who's you know, was 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:52.199 a no brainer once we get down to it. 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.720 Last year, you guys made a splash and free agency 0:19:55.119 --> 0:19:57.880 with the bullpen as well with Kirby Yates, Tanner Scott. 0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:01.199 Tanner Scott didn't have certainly this season you guys had 0:20:01.240 --> 0:20:03.600 expected him to have and he'll be the first person 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:05.800 to say that, what do you guys expect out of 0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:08.440 Tanner Scott and how he can kind of fit in 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:11.040 and piece together with Edwin Diaz at the back end 0:20:11.040 --> 0:20:11.640 of that bullpen. 0:20:13.000 --> 0:20:17.120 Yeah, I think, you know, talking to Tanner recently and 0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:20.520 you know, just throughout the season, fully expect him to 0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:24.320 come back to his previous dominance as well and feel 0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:27.240 like it's a great, you know, another great piece to 0:20:27.280 --> 0:20:30.160 have in our pen to go along with a bunch 0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:32.280 of other guys who have who've done it once again, 0:20:32.320 --> 0:20:35.680 have a track record of just being really hard to hit, 0:20:36.160 --> 0:20:38.360 and he's going to be another important piece to us, 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:40.880 you know, trying to go out and win another championship. 0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.800 Gomer, when you guys go to Orlando for the Winter Meetings, 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:49.160 How are the Dodgers received by everybody else around Major 0:20:49.240 --> 0:20:51.960 League Baseball? You know, if you look on social media, 0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:54.080 you guys are the evil Empire of the West now. 0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:56.760 But you go to Orlando and the Baseball Winner Meetings 0:20:56.760 --> 0:20:59.439 when the Dodgers walk in and those quarters at Polos 0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.760 are being war with that Dodger logo on it. How 0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:05.080 are the Dodgers scene around Baseball and Orlando when you 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:06.760 guys were at the Winter Meetings? Is back to back 0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:07.479 world champs? 0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:11.960 I'm not really sure. I think we have a lot 0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:15.840 of really good relationships across across the game, and you know, 0:21:15.960 --> 0:21:18.840 I think the Winter Meetings, everybody knows that you're there 0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:22.240 to go and try to make your team as good 0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:27.000 as possible. And you know, obviously it's great coming off 0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:30.399 back to back championships, but nothing, you know, taking nothing 0:21:30.400 --> 0:21:34.040 for granted, and continuing to try to grind and do 0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:36.080 everything we can to go out and put the best 0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:36.960 team out there again. 0:21:37.720 --> 0:21:40.560 And you guys certainly do that. And there's always trade 0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:43.760 rumors going on this time of the year, and you 0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:45.800 guys are all together, I mean, we we think of 0:21:45.840 --> 0:21:48.800 the Dodgers as this global organization and you guys are 0:21:48.880 --> 0:21:51.959 but you guys all work together, are in contact together. 0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:54.120 How do you guys deal with some of your own 0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:57.840 players being named in trade rumors? Is that uncomfortable? 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:00.000
