We started the show by talking about 20 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 3: Hunter Green. I get accused of I got an email 21 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 3: here accusing me of giving Hunter Green a tongue bath. 22 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 2: Now let me tell you something. Okay, let me tell 23 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 2: you something. 24 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 3: If you send me correspondents that uses the term tongue bath, 25 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 3: I will laugh every single time. 26 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: The audio. 27 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 3: This week, hunter Green's sticking up for himself, which good 28 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 3: for him, good for an athlete sticking up, good for 29 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: anybody's sticking up for themselves. Hunter Green's took up for 30 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 3: himself and addressed narratives that had built regarding his injury 31 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 3: last year and talked about, you know, defamation of character, 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: and he's hurt, he's pissed. And this narrative did build 33 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 3: last year about Hunter Green because it was a while 34 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 3: between starts, it was a while his stay on the 35 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 3: injured list. And look, the Reds are at their best 36 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: when they're starting staff is at its best, and the 37 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 3: red starting staff is at its best when. 38 00:01:58,760 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 2: Hunter Green is healthy. 39 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 3: When healthy, he's one of the best fifteen pitchers in baseball, 40 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: twenty pitchers in baseball. Heck, maybe maybe the company is 41 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 3: more exclusive than that. If the Reds are gonna win 42 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 3: big this year, hunter Green has to make all his starts. 43 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 3: And you could say that about a lot of guys 44 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,959 Speaker 3: on their staff. But this bit, this did build last year. 45 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 3: This did build last year. Where there was a level 46 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 3: of exasperation that felt like it was being communicated through 47 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: the media on behalf of people. 48 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 2: With the team. 49 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: Could have been players, could have been ownership, could have 50 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 3: been management, coaches, manager. There was a level of exasperation 51 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 3: with Hunter Green, quote slow playing his return from injury. 52 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: It was one of the things that was talked about 53 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: a lot, and you could understand Hunter Green being upset 54 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 3: about that, like folks would write about it, it would 55 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 3: get talked about. But what was being about and talked 56 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 3: about when it comes to Hunter Green was coming from 57 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 3: a place of information, and the information the people covering 58 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: the team were getting was folks in the organization were 59 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 3: exasperated with Hunter Green. Who folks in the organization were. 60 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: Your guess is as good as mine. Maybe they were teammates, 61 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe they were, maybe they were coaches. 62 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: Who knows. Here's what I do know. 63 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 3: That regardless of how you felt about Hunter Green last season, 64 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 3: maybe you believe, you know what he should have done 65 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: more to try to come back. From my perspective, athlete 66 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 3: knows his or her body. But what the Reds do 67 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 3: want to do long term is ensure that their best 68 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 3: players want to stay with them. They made a big 69 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 3: deal about this, right, Ellie de other Cruz, Hey, we tried. 70 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 3: We tried to make him the highest paid Reds player 71 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 3: of all time. Cool the difference between highest paid Reds 72 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 3: player of all time and highest paid Major League Baseball 73 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 3: player of all time. But yeah, man, this has been 74 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 3: a topic since, like Ellie's third game, Are they gonna 75 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 3: keep this guy? 76 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: Like? 77 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 3: I hear about this, and there are lots of us 78 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 3: who hear about this NonStop, from folks who are already 79 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 3: worked in a ladder about Ellie maybe one day leaving 80 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: the Rads would like to keep him long term, whether 81 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 3: or not they can. I'm skeptical, think most of us 82 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 3: should be skeptical. If we were to wager on this, 83 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: is Ellie gonna be a Red at the end of 84 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: his current contract? The smart money is on no. But 85 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 3: this is something they want to do. And if it's 86 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 3: not Ellie, it can still be Ellie. But it's also 87 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 3: Matt McClain maybe, and maybe down the road, Sal Stewart 88 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 3: and perhaps some of the other pitchers Abbot Loddolo like 89 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 3: they'd love for some of these guys to stick around, 90 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 3: acknowledging that maybe not all of them will, But that's 91 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 3: a thing, right, They want their guys to stick around. 92 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 3: If you want players to stick around, don't dump all 93 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 3: over them behind their backs. Pretty simple. Want me to 94 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: work for you, cool, I'll come work for you. The 95 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 3: culture of the office a lot of gossip, a lot 96 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: of backstabbing, a lot of rumor spreading, because if the 97 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 3: answers are yes, I ain't coming. I've been lucky in 98 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: my career. Man, I've not really worked at places like that. 99 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 3: But you want me to start thinking about where I'm 100 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,679 Speaker 3: gonna go next, build narratives about me. Question my integrity question, 101 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 3: my character question, my competitiveness question, openly what you think 102 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 3: I'm really doing everything I can to come back from injury. 103 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 3: That exasperation was there last year. It may be proven 104 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: that that exasperation was warranted. And yeah, man, there's always 105 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 3: you know, you kind of start to lose patience when 106 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 3: a player. 107 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: Is always injured. 108 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 3: As Bengals fans, we're all tired of Joe Burrow getting hurt. 109 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 3: Right now, Joe Burrough getting hurt is not really a 110 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 3: reflection of him. It's certainly no reflection of his character. 111 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,119 Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, you do get tired of a great 112 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 3: player or an important player getting hurt a lot, it stinks, 113 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 3: It hurts the chances of the team winning. We all 114 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 3: understand that. But if you're a Hunter Green, like a 115 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 3: dude who is let's call it what it is. He's 116 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 3: taken less to play here. He's taken less than he 117 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 3: would get an arbitration. Obviously he can't go anywhere right now. 118 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 3: But he did give the Reds his last year or 119 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 3: his first year a free agency like he's done everything 120 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 3: you could ask. It's been everything you could ask. And 121 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 3: the reward is when you get hurt, you got people 122 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 3: on the team you play for or the organization you 123 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 3: work for talking smack about you, talking behind your back, 124 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 3: questioning your integrity, questioning maybe your competitiveness. 125 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that bother me. I bet it would bother you. 126 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 2: And what it would do is. 127 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 3: Make you wonder long term, I really want to be here, Like, dude, 128 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 3: I get hurt, I do what I gotta do for 129 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 3: my body, and I'm gonna have people here questioning like 130 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 3: how seriously I take my craft? Questioning my commitment to 131 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 3: my team? Yeah, the hell with that. 132 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 2: So want to get guys to want to stay here. 133 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 3: Word of advice, don't be the team that just behind 134 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 3: the scenes, dumps all over the integrity and character of 135 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 3: your guys or else, no one's gonna want to stay 136 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 3: pretty simple man, like I want to be able to 137 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 3: retain employees. Don't talk about them behind their backs, don't gossip. 138 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: Want to get people to want to stay working for you. 139 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 2: That's hot. The exact opposite way is gossip all the time. 140 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 3: Undermine them all the time, talk about their you know, integrity, 141 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 3: talk about their work ethic, question them because that'll come 142 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: back to them. Maybe less so in a sector like 143 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 3: you know, a normal, normal workplace than a baseball team 144 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 3: where you have you know, reporters or are looking for scoops, 145 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 3: looking for sources, and none of those people who cover 146 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 3: the team are guilty of anything. All they're doing is conveying, Like, dude, 147 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: here's kind of what's out there about Hunter Green, And 148 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 3: it was a thing last year. If you were Hunter Green, 149 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 3: you would feel like your integrity was being questioned. And 150 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: if you feel like your integrity is being questioned by 151 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 3: people you work with or work for, you will start 152 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 3: to wonder do I want to continue to work here? 153 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 3: Do not be the baseball team that people don't want 154 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 3: to stay with because you question their integrity. 155 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 2: Somebody's gonna get hurt this. 156 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 3: Year, and maybe they bust their ass to come back, 157 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 3: or maybe they go at their own pace, because again, 158 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 3: athlete knows his or her body when it happens. Okay, 159 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 3: you know, drop little nuggets to the people that cover 160 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 3: the team about how you're exasperated with them, or you 161 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 3: don't like the pace at which they've come back. 162 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 2: Okay, cool. 163 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 3: Then don't stand there wondering what happened when that player decides, actually, 164 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 3: I don't want to reup with you, don't want to 165 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 3: extend my deal, don't want to take less money, don't 166 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 3: want to not leave for somewhere else. There's something about 167 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: that Hunter Green thing that's worth paying attention to.

A goal interrupted conversation with our friend Chad 212 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 3: Brenda of Bearcad Journal dot com. We had to interrupt 213 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 3: the conversation to. 214 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: Inform you in the audience. 215 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 3: Even if you weren't there that the United States be 216 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 3: canna in overtime in the metal game in women's hockey. 217 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 2: But in the middle of all that, we did a 218 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 2: Chad Brandell. 219 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: Conversation where we talked about the Bearcats and Wes Miller 220 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 3: and mccrona a little bit, and so much more little 221 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 3: UC baseball, Chad's willingness to participate in a possible and 222 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 3: it's possible ESPN fifteen thirty tweet up at a UC 223 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 3: baseball game right I was talking about this on social media. 224 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 3: College baseball is a lot of fun. Let's be honest. 225 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 3: There are a couple of things that work against college 226 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 3: baseball in this market. A. The season starts before the 227 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 3: weather has completely flipped. B. We have a Major League 228 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 3: baseball team here, but we've got some good college baseball programs. 229 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: And as much as people love their schools and their 230 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: alma maters in this market, in this town, I've at 231 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 3: times wondered why there isn't at least a little bit 232 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 3: more interest and support for people's individual teams years in 233 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 3: years ago. And I remember why we did this years 234 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 3: and years ago. And when I say years and years ago, 235 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 3: I mean like two thousand and nine, or eight, like 236 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 3: forever ago, the University of Cincinnati announced that they were 237 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: starting beer sales at baseball games, which we thought was 238 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 3: cool because I like a cold one, and you know, 239 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 3: you could buy a cold one out of UC basketball game, 240 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 3: you could buy a cold one out of UC football game. 241 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 3: Why not at a baseball game? And again, starting in 242 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: like two thousand and nine, now you could. And I 243 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 3: remember like telling this to people, like, you know, you 244 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: go to those games, you can get a beer, and they're. 245 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: Like, huh. 246 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 3: So we decided to do I believe we did call 247 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 3: it a tweet up, and you know, let's be honest. 248 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 3: As much as I still really enjoy Twitter as a 249 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 3: social media platform, you can argue it was a little 250 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 3: bit more fun on that app back then. I think 251 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 3: that's kind of before everybody totally lost their mind. And 252 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 3: so we decided to do a tweet up, and I 253 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 3: remember it was one of the first like events like 254 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 3: that that we did on this show. And the turnout 255 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 3: was really really good. You had a lot of folks 256 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 3: who had never been to a college baseball game before, 257 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 3: much less you see baseball game. Now, the team this 258 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: year looks like it has a chance to be pretty good. 259 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 3: They just upset Auburn the other night. They played in 260 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 3: the NCAA Tournament last year. Jordan Bischell has proven, I 261 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 3: think so far, to be a good hire. Just got 262 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 3: a contract extension and so you know, and that's the case. 263 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 3: You get, you know, hey, you're going to talk a 264 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 3: little bit more college baseball. And it's like, yes, we 265 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 3: did have Jordan Bishell on the show. We've had Billy 266 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 3: O'Connor on the show from Xavier. Like talking to college 267 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 3: baseball is fun, but like the overall interest isn't there, 268 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 3: and so like I'd still love to do an outing. Now, 269 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 3: you do have to work around the weather. We have 270 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 3: to work around the fact that they have a lot 271 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 3: of games that take place later in the afternoon while 272 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 3: we are still on the air. But it's one of 273 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 3: those too where it's like folks say they'll go and 274 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 3: then it's like, well they really, so I'm considering it. 275 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 3: We're working on it. Got Chad Brundle to be involved, 276 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 3: had some folks chime in on social media saying, you know, yeah, 277 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 3: I'll do it. I'll be there, so we'll see. 278 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: I'm not. 279 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 3: Not totally on board yet, but I'm I'm getting there. 280 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 3: I'm getting there. We'll see, Like I need everybody who's like, yeah, man, 281 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: you know, need to make college baseball a bigger part 282 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 3: of the show to actually come to stuff like this. 283 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 2: So we'll see, we'll see. 284 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 3: Stay tuned. As we say no movement on Trey Hendrickson. 285 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: There's obviously a lot of chatter around the NFL about 286 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 3: Max Crosby and the Raiders. And I was watching Get 287 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 3: Up this morning on ESPN and Adam Schefter is outlining 288 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 3: like the Raiders are asking for the moon and they 289 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 3: should like it. It's like the Bengals with Trey Hendrickson 290 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 3: last year. The asking price for Trey back then should 291 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 3: have been exorbitant, and the asking price by the Raiders 292 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 3: for Max Crosby is apparently also exorbitant. They're under no 293 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 3: real pressure to trade him, so they're asking for a one, 294 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 3: they're asking for other draft capital. They are setting the 295 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: price really, really high. Could the Bengals be interested? I 296 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 3: don't know how. They're not at least interested. 297 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: In the player. 298 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 3: Now, are they really gonna go bold and give up 299 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 3: the tenth overall pick for Max Crosby? What we know 300 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 3: about this franchise would suggest the answer is no something 301 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 3: will say, like, why don't you just keep Trey Hendrickson. 302 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 2: Like the part of. 303 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 3: This that when you say people laugh is they have 304 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 3: to really like Miles Murphy and like. 305 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: There's room for two truths, as there always are. Right. 306 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 3: One truth is it took way too long for Miles 307 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 3: Murphy to produce in a league that is all about 308 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 3: cheap labor, in a league where it's never mattered more 309 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 3: to have your draft picks make an immediate impact. Miles 310 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 3: Murphy's immediate impact was not existent. That's a fair statement. 311 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 3: But the way that he played last year was really good, 312 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 3: especially in the second half of the season. If you 313 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: watched him, I think you saw a guy that you're like, dude, 314 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 3: I want that guy to be on the team moving forward. 315 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 3: And that is a player who is He is ascending, 316 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 3: he's trending upward. Maybe he's been a late bloomer. Maybe 317 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 3: the light bulb has finally come on. Maybe he's benefited 318 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 3: from the accumulation of experience, maybe benefited from Trey Hendrickson 319 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 3: not being on the field. 320 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 2: Whatever it was. 321 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 3: They invested a first round pick in Miles Murphy and 322 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 3: they're finally getting return on that investment. This could also 323 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 3: be true that Miles Murphy looks like a guy that 324 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 3: you could help build around. Why was Miles Murphy drafted? 325 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 3: He was drafted to one day replace Trey Hendrickson. Has 326 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 3: he played like a possible replacement for Trey Hendrickson recently? Yes, 327 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: The fact that he didn't in twenty twenty three, frankly 328 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 3: shouldn't disqualify Miles Murphy from being a viable Trey Hendrickson replacement. 329 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 3: That's a thing that is happening right now. If they 330 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 3: drafted him with the idea that he's going to replace Trey, 331 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 3: because there's going to be a point twenty twenty six 332 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 3: where Trey is no longer with the team and the 333 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 3: dude is playing well, why should they suddenly pivot in 334 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 3: another direction and go, you know what, Miles is not 335 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 3: going to be the heir apparent to Trey Hendrickson. They 336 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: also drafted Shamar Stewart. Now, Chamar's rookie season could not 337 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 3: have gone more sideways, and you know he's he's complicit 338 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 3: in that obviously, But would you expect the Bengals to 339 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 3: totally bail on Jamar Stewart after one year when injury 340 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 3: was a factor the answer can't be yes, especially when 341 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 3: another guy they've drafted at the same position. It's taken 342 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 3: a while now with Shamar Stewart, we're certainly hoping it 343 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 3: doesn't take a third year before the production comes. But 344 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 3: if you're willing to look at Miles Murphy and go, 345 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 3: you know what, forget year one, look at what we're 346 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 3: getting now, why do you not go Shamar Stewart forget 347 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 3: year one? Brighter days are ahead, Like those two guys matter. 348 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 3: Now you need more. And it would be really surprising 349 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 3: if the Bengals didn't bolster their pass rush in free agency, 350 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 3: whether it's edge or whether it's on the interior the 351 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 3: defensive line, or ideally both. And it would be pretty 352 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 3: surprising if that wasn't an area of focus. 353 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 2: In the draft. 354 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 3: And holy hell, I mean sign me up for talking 355 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 3: as much about Ruben Bain as possible. But like, there's 356 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson, but there's also tons of money and other 357 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 3: edge rushers available. There's the need to make the pass 358 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 3: rush better on the inside. There's the possibility they can 359 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 3: get an edge with a tenth overall pick. Maybe ruben 360 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 3: Bain is there. Also, they have to like what they're 361 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 3: getting from Miles Murphy and they like Shamar Stewart enough 362 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 3: to draft them, And I don't know that one sideways 363 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 3: year is enough to make them feel like, you know what, 364 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 3: we screwed the pickup. So let's go back and rethink 365 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson, who's coming off of season where he got 366 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 3: hurt five point thirty. If you're a sports card collector, 367 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 3: this event coming up on Sunday is something you don't 368 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 3: want to miss.

What do you guys do? 536 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 6: So I, as I mentioned, I got back into sports 537 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 6: cards in twenty twenty and looked to to fill up 538 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 6: a spot in the hobby where it was about enjoying 539 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 6: sports cards, and so we opened about eighteen months ago. 540 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 6: I've enjoyed meeting people coming through the door. It's been 541 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 6: at home base. You know, you're looking for that third 542 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 6: spot to come in and have a friend. I've made 543 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 6: more friends in the last eighteen months at the shop 544 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 6: than I made in the last ten years. 545 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 3: You know. 546 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 6: It's just a lot of people who are passionate about sports. 547 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,959 Speaker 6: Parents coming in with their kids, grandparents coming in with 548 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 6: their grandkids. And I'm next to an arcade legacy in Sharonville, 549 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 6: so we're in Sharonville off of Sharon Road I seventy five, 550 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 6: So a nice cross pollination of people going in there, 551 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 6: coming into my shop and just being a spot to 552 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 6: enjoy the hobby. And it's exciting to get to do 553 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 6: the card show aspect of it because the card shows 554 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,719 Speaker 6: are just different. Yea, you know, it's it's it's a party, 555 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 6: and that's why that's why we've we've come at it 556 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 6: with this angle is you can sit at home and 557 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 6: do sports cards. Yeah, you can buy on eBay, right, 558 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 6: you can trade on Facebook. But there's nothing like meeting 559 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 6: three four friends at the card show, walking around to 560 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 6: the forty tables, shaking hands and making trades. 561 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 3: It brings back such memories. I'm I'm older than you, 562 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 3: but I. You know, in the eighties, you would get 563 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 3: the Beckett Baseball Card Money, which was like the Wall 564 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 3: Street Journal of Baseball cards, and you would you would 565 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 3: get it and it was like, man, I got a 566 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 3: Joe Carter card and well, it's it's up five cents. 567 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 3: It's worth fifteen cents, all right, I gotta hang on 568 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 3: to that. Wait a minute, Wait a minute, my my, my, 569 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 3: Wally Backman cards down four cents. That's only worth seven cents. 570 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 3: And so it brings back great memory. So I can 571 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 3: bring like when I was a kid, I'd get the 572 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 3: entire set, right, I'd collapse. I would and like my 573 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 3: dad and I were into this. It was like, you 574 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 3: can't buy the whole set. You have to collect. You 575 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 3: gotta buy packs. You gotta see all right, I'm Reggie 576 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 3: Jackson away from having the entire Angels team. 577 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 2: And you would do this over the course of the year. 578 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 3: And then I would take every team and swore them alphabetically, 579 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 3: starting with A for A's or Angels. It these Angels, 580 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 3: I guess, and all the way down to the end 581 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 3: of the alphabet. But then in every team it also 582 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 3: had to be alphabetical order. So you know, players starting 583 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 3: with the last name, Ay, and then you put them in binders. 584 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 2: I still have them. 585 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 3: I still have them, So can I bring them on 586 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 3: Sunday so I can have someone look at me and go, 587 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 3: that's cool. 588 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 2: You did this. It's cool you've kept him. They're worth nothing. 589 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 6: I unfortunately had that conversation a couple of times a day. 590 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 6: But as as a card lover, I certainly appreciate getting 591 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 6: a flip through those binders. Just yesterday I had a 592 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 6: gentleman bring in a nineteen eighty seven Fleer basketball set, okay, 593 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 6: which was Jordan's second year. Yeah, you know that those 594 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 6: cards in good condition, which these are, were two three 595 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 6: thousand dollars, right, The Jordan rookies were ten twelve fifteen 596 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 6: thousand dollars. 597 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: That's the eighty six set. 598 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 6: And then a couple hours later, another gentleman brought through 599 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 6: his old baseball cards the early seventies, late sixties, a 600 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 6: couple mantles Willie Mays. So there's that side of it, 601 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 6: and then there's the unfortunate side of nineteen eighty five 602 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 6: to two thousand, you know, when when the printing machines 603 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 6: didn't stop for the car manufacturers. You know, unfortunately, the 604 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 6: Barry Larkin rookie cards three to five dollars because there 605 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 6: were so many of them, right. 606 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 2: So many of them. 607 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 6: The only one that really holds the test of time 608 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 6: right now is the Griffy Upper Deck nineteen eighty nine, right, 609 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 6: so you know, that's that's the big one from that era. 610 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 6: And I'm always happy to look through collections because they're 611 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 6: they're in the nineties, they started numbering cards, they started 612 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 6: having autographs, so there's a little bit of variance there, 613 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 6: but that late eighties, nineteen ninety ninety one, that's that's 614 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 6: a more nostalgia. 615 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 3: Than So I loved Tony Gwynn as a kid, like 616 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 3: my guy rest in peace, like love Tony Gwinn. So 617 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 3: I remember getting his rookie card like in the late eighties, 618 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 3: and he had been in the league for a few years, 619 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 3: and then someone telling me like, well, that's only the 620 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 3: tops rookie card, and I'm like, what are you talking about? 621 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 3: So we need the Fleer, need the don Ross, need 622 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 3: the exactly the score, need the Bowman. And it's like, well, 623 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 3: I'm not going to be able to get all those, 624 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 3: you know, I don't have any money. 625 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 2: And it was like, well, so that. 626 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 3: Rookie card is not worth as much because there's like 627 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 3: nine Tony Gwinn rookie cards. 628 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, there are, There were the I believe eighty three 629 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 6: was his rookie year, and there's the three main rookie cards, 630 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 6: and then there would be some offshoots perhaps right. But 631 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 6: the big time manufacturing, Yeah, it was the late eighties, 632 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 6: early nineties.
