Yeah, yeah, that was very convincing. 25 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 3: I heard a couple of things about him on the 26 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 3: secret text also. Line one was that he has like 27 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 3: a long standing feud with some other Irvine City council 28 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 3: person and they have like a real, very contentious relationship 29 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 3: and that. Yeah. And then the other one is that 30 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 3: he's run for president before this guy. Really, yeah, let's 31 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 3: go right. So I'm sure he wants unless he's just 32 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 3: that old and he's tired. 33 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 2: He's eighty about Although I did see a YouTube video 34 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: of him from the city council meetings when they were 35 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 2: virtual during COVID, and he has a very quaint and 36 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: simple living room. A piano sits behind him. Matt, was 37 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: he like Jack Lelane or Joe bat It looked like 38 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: he had he had quite a bit of energy when 39 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: he was talking about building the Veterans Memorial at the 40 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: Great Park and needing to get that started and conquering 41 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 2: COVID together. It looked like in his curio cabinet he 42 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: had a Godzilla doll, which got me kind of excited. 43 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 3: Oh, he must be a big Blake Snell fan. 44 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 2: Yes, so I think Agron. I think he'd be okay 45 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: if we can get in touch with him, the former 46 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 2: North Hollywood High quarterback. 47 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good one. Tell us about those games, 48 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 3: tell us about doing Battle with Canoga. It's gonna be good. Yes, 49 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 3: it is all right, Matt. Instead of putting David Vase 50 00:02:53,200 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 3: on today, like Agrin, we've aggregated some of the Dodger 51 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 3: stories that have been trickling out during the Bliss post 52 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 3: Bliss Dodger celebration. The latest, of course, just now Yamamoto 53 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 3: loses the Cy Young. I think everybody pretty much knew that. 54 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 3: Yeah we did. But at the same time, would you 55 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 3: rather be runner up to the Cy Young or one 56 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 3: of the most legendary playoff performing pitchers of all time? 57 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 3: I think he would take the latter and the World 58 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 3: Series Championship ring that's two in a row for Yamamoto, 59 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: who's been great in both postseasons. What would you rather do? Man, 60 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go. 61 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: World Series MVP over Cy Young. I think very hard 62 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 2: to win a World Series. Just ask Clayton Kershaw, who 63 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: has four Cy Youngs and an MVP and no World 64 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: Series MVP, let alone a World Cheries MVP. So the fact, 65 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: he's got two in the two years he's been in 66 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 2: the majors, plus an MVP. Pretty incredible. 67 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 3: That being said Matt, there's other news that is also disappointing. 68 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 3: If you thought Yamamoto was gonna win the cy Young, 69 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 3: I guess you're disappointment. The Year of the Cat has 70 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 3: come to an end, at least here. Al Stewart never 71 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 3: joined us, and he was always hurt anyway. Picture Tony 72 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 3: Gonsolyn was designated for assignment a few days ago, and 73 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: today he elected to enter free agency. He's gone, He's 74 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 3: trickled out of our lives like a watercolor in the 75 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 3: rain man. So long to the cat Man Tony Gonsolin. 76 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: And so one's our pursuit of El Stewart. 77 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 3: I'd still take al Stewart. Gonsolin was drafted by the Dodgers, 78 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 3: cultivated Here was an All Star in twenty twenty two. 79 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 3: Like Kate said, we'll always have twenty twenty two, when 80 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 3: he finished the year sixteen and one with a two 81 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 3: point one four ERA. He got hurt. After that, he 82 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 3: missed the entire twenty twenty four season. With Tommy Yanni 83 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 3: Tommy Johns in Greek we call it Anastasios Giannis. He 84 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 3: was shut down after seven starts this season, Matt, which 85 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 3: was very upsetting, and he didn't pitch well anyway. He 86 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 3: had internal brace and flexor repair surgery in August that 87 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: tapped him out and that'll keep him out for most 88 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: of the twenty twenty six seasons. So the Catman is gone, 89 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 3: but not forgotten here on the show. There's some pictures 90 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 3: we forget, like the Stone Bone and people like that 91 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,239 Speaker 3: that kind of are out at Land and Knack. They're 92 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 3: in and out of our thoughts, Bobby Ice, Bobby Miller. 93 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 3: But I'm not gonna lie Matt. This one stings because 94 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 3: I really did think we were gonna be able to 95 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 3: get Al Stewart at some point. 96 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 2: Well, we certainly pursued him with great aggression for the 97 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: better part of a half decade. 98 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 3: And well, Kate said he pursued him. I never saw 99 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 3: any emails. All I heard was Kate said, yeah, yeah, 100 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 3: I asked him. You know, it's like when Ronnie tells 101 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 3: Bert to raise the level of something and he doesn't 102 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 3: touch him and says he did, and he goes, oh, 103 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 3: that's bitter, you know, like that, It's just like that, 104 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 3: you know, what I mean, Matt, You know what I mean. 105 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 3: You're picking up what I'm putting down. 106 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: I smell what you're stepping in. 107 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,239 Speaker 3: Well, if I'm upset about the cat man, Tim Kates 108 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 3: is catatonic because his new favorite Dodger. 109 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 2: That's a hell of a pun. 110 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 3: That catcher is gone. Benny Biceps. Oh, atrophy has set in, Matt. 111 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: He's like that. Ben rhart Vett was claimed off waivers 112 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 3: today by our friends, the Cincinnati Reds. Rart Vet was 113 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 3: called up when Will Smith hurt his hand in September. 114 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 3: He took over the starting catching job from Dalton Rushing, 115 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 3: just because he's a little bit more mature of a 116 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 3: catcher and they didn't really need the bat When Will 117 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 3: Smith came back in the NLDS, rart Vet stayed on 118 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 3: the postseason roster as the backup catcher in the NLCS 119 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 3: and the World Series. He had a great ride with 120 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: the Dodgers. Seemed like he was a great guy and 121 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 3: beloved and embraced by everybody. And now he's gone. I 122 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 3: don't know what Tim is gonna do. Honestly, probably just 123 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 3: pick up and carry on. But not an easy thing 124 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 3: to swallow. This is what happens at the end of 125 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 3: every baseball season that it's not easy to deal with. 126 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 3: It's certainly disappointing. And Matt, this is even sadder if 127 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 3: you think about it. 128 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 2: What I'm sadder than our the end of our pursuit 129 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 2: of Al Stewart having never been realized. 130 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 3: Well, that doesn't pursuits nothing is all that Still Al 131 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 3: Stewart sadder than my Al Stewart dream taking a big hit, 132 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 3: Sadder than Tim Kates's favorite catcher on the Dodger roster 133 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: being picked up on waivers by Cincinnati. This is even 134 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 3: more hardcore, Matt, because it's kind of sad because you 135 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 3: think about our dear friends at well in the East 136 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 3: and if you're in Japan right now, I mean you're 137 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 3: wearing Dodger gear head to toe. I'm a moto Otani. 138 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 3: What a time to be alive, right But Dodger infielder 139 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 3: outfielder High Song Kim Kim returned to South Korea, and 140 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 3: in Korea they're like, well, Japan's just defecating all over us. 141 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 3: In his first meeting with the media at the airport, 142 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 3: Kim was greeted by a guy who says Kim's dad, 143 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: Owes him money, which was a little weird. Kim says 144 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: that the guy keeps following him around demanding he pay him, 145 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 3: but High Song does not owe him anything and is 146 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: not responsible for his father's debt. Then welcome home. Right. 147 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 3: Then he goes on TV and did a great interview 148 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 3: dressed in a suit, and they're like, hey, how come 149 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 3: you're not doing anything? Look at what all these other 150 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 3: He's like, dude, I'm you know, I'm getting used to 151 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 3: to pro baseball in the States. Give me a break. Anyway. 152 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 3: There's a little of the audio from that that interview, 153 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 3: translating loosely what he said. He said, thank you for 154 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 3: your support. Even though I didn't do well this year. 155 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 3: I promised to do better next year so I can 156 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 3: show my face a lot more to fans at the 157 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 3: baseball field. Thank you. This poor guy, right, Like, what 158 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: do they expect from him? This isn't cool. Your dad 159 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 3: owes me money? Right when you get off the plane 160 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 3: and you've got to sit here and apologize. You just 161 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 3: want a World Series and you got you got to 162 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 3: sit here and apologize. Well, he's not the World Series MVP. No, 163 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 3: that's true. My mistake. He barely played San Kit but 164 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 3: he's still fast. Oh there's no doubt about that. Man 165 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 3: still got speed. So poor guys twenty six years old, 166 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 3: comes over from Korea, started the year in TRIPLEA, got 167 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: called up and played well. They asked him to learn 168 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 3: how to play in the outfield. He did. He's a 169 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 3: utility player for the Dodgers in the postseason. He goes 170 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 3: back home and he feels like he has to apologize. 171 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 3: He played in seventy one games, had a two to 172 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 3: eighty average, three home runs, eleven RBIs, and thirteen stolen bases. 173 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 3: Leave Kim alone. Got didn't do anything wrong at all. 174 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: But I think Korea's won that money. Korea is upset 175 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 3: because you got World Series MVP and LMVP in Japan, 176 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 3: and Japan's looking down on Korea as they often have, 177 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: so unfortunate for Kim. I hope that everything gets worked 178 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 3: out back in Korea. Maybe just come and spend the 179 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 3: offseason here in La where you can do a bunch 180 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 3: of signings and go to the Raising Canes and make 181 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: all kinds of money in the silly season. 182 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 2: You know what I mean, Matt, Yeah, I get a 183 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: guest voice appearance on The Demon Hunter k Pop. You 184 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: know on the Netflix. 185 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 3: Oh people would love that, love it. 186 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 4: So apparently they asked him about his role in the 187 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 4: postseason as well, and he said, quote, I wasn't really disappointed, 188 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 4: though as a baseball player, of course there was some regret. 189 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 4: Only nine players get to play, and that's part of baseball. 190 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 4: So I focused on doing my job well in the 191 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 4: role that I was given. 192 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, they have high expectations in Korea. They wanted to 193 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 3: be like Otani or Yamamoto, and maybe he will one day. 194 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 3: But and Sasaki was great too. You know, they're jealous. 195 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 3: The Koreans are jealous of the Hapongs, and they're taken 196 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 3: it out on Kim and his dad. Not cool. I 197 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,839 Speaker 3: wonder how much money Kim's dad owes that guy allegedly, 198 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 3: probably a lot, right, five million dong is that what 199 00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 3: it's called. I think it is dong? Well, the only 200 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 3: hit like three dollars. We'll be right back with the 201 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 3: top story of the day.

And let this be a lesson 236 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: no matter what you do in your professional life, and 237 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: look not that I can give you the greatest advice. 238 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: We've had many an instance from film on things that 239 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 2: you should take the heart and apply to your daily life, 240 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: you know, as art imitates life, like coach Finn Stock 241 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 2: from teen Wolf. 242 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, coach, what's. 243 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 4: It from me? Let me give you a little advice. 244 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 4: There's three rules that I live by. 245 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 3: Never get less than twelve hours sleep, Never played cards 246 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 3: with a guy who's got the same first name. 247 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 4: As a city. And never go near a lady who's 248 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 4: got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. 249 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 3: Now you stick with that. 250 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 4: Everything else is cream cheese, great game. 251 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 3: Finn Stock, one of the great coaches of all time, 252 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 3: like Norman Dale, right, Finn Stock is a close second. 253 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 2: Close second. And if you got a wolf, play them. 254 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 2: You know what, if you got a kid that turns 255 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 2: into a monster, don't freak. 256 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 3: Out play him, No, keep you in that gum. 257 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 2: That's right. When your conference win city, who knows, maybe 258 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: win state and pass out some sage advice to a 259 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: senior that looks like he's about thirty years old and 260 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 2: clocking in at five foot three. And then I do 261 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 2: think there are a couple other rules here that could 262 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 2: apply to our top story. This may not be the 263 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 2: only time we run into this one today. 264 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 5: Ah, you fought you fell victim to one of the 265 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 5: classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in 266 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 5: a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well 267 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 5: known is this never go in against the Sicilian when death. 268 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 3: Is on the line. 269 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 2: So what are we talking about? All five of those 270 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 2: things you should apply to your daily lives. But here's 271 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 2: what I think we apply in the top story. If 272 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 2: you run an NBA team worth billions of dollars, here's 273 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 2: two bits of advice I'd passed along to our billionaire friends. 274 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 2: Never negotiate one hundred million dollar plus free agent contract 275 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 2: with an agent that asked to be called uncle, and 276 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 2: don't sign players from deadbeat teams that rejected a trade 277 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 2: to a contender midseason. You follow those and everything else 278 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: is cream cheese. There is no question, no question that 279 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: the Kawhi Leonard free agent pursuit deal slash deals are 280 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 2: going to go down as one of the worst signings 281 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 2: in NBA history. And I say it acknowledging that he's 282 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 2: been a three time All NBA player in his six 283 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 2: years with the Clippers, that he's been All Defense for 284 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 2: two of those, that he's been a four time All Star. 285 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 2: But it has been an unmitigated failure because the Clippers 286 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 2: set themselves up. If we remember in the summer of 287 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen, to hit the free agent market, an unprecedented 288 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 2: free agent market with so much cash, an owner and 289 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 2: Steve Balmer who would spare no expense, a pitch that 290 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 2: was promising. It was Kevin Durant, it was Kyrie Irving, 291 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 2: it was Kawhi Leonard sign with us. The Lakers are 292 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 2: coming off another losing season. They were thirty seven and 293 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: forty five. Yes, Lebron had signed there, but remember that 294 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 2: first year was a mess. They had been terrible for 295 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 2: a half decade. The window was going to open again 296 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 2: for the Clippers to make some headway. But you can 297 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 2: just point to awful contracts given to players. 298 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 3: That just sucked. 299 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 2: And I don't mean sucked in terms of basketball performance, 300 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: I mean sucked the life out of anything and everything 301 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: that had been working. And in this case of Kawhi, 302 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 2: it was the demands. It was Uncle Dennis. It was 303 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 2: catering to a non superstar superstar, building a roster around him, 304 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: asking him to be the face of a franchise when 305 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 2: he doesn't feel like he even has a face, can't 306 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 2: film a face. 307 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: Eyes without a face. 308 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: All of it pete complete and total, unequivocal failure, which 309 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 2: the Bradley Beal signing and his now being out for 310 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 2: the season, that James Harden trade, and I know Don 311 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: made a very compelling and who am I to push 312 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 2: back on him. I would never do that, but he 313 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 2: made a very compelling passion plea of well, you know, 314 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 2: James has actually been pretty good. That he's done whatever 315 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: the Clippers have asked of him. If you want him 316 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 2: to pound the ball on the floor and shoot thirty 317 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: five times, he'll do that if you want him to distribute, 318 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 2: he'll do that. But my point is it's still not 319 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 2: fun to watch that guy play basketball. It's not entertaining 320 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 2: at all. There is very little that James Harden does 321 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 2: that you're like, wow, that was really that was a 322 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 2: basketball exhibition that I'm going to remember for the rest 323 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 2: of the year. And all of these moves and everything 324 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 2: that they have done since the summer of twenty nineteen 325 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,479 Speaker 2: has been done with the backdrop of we need to 326 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 2: build around Kawhi Leonard. We need to ensure that Kawhi 327 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 2: wants to stay here. He is the central force. He 328 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 2: is our north star that guides us and the year. 329 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 2: Going into that free agent summer, some nights. 330 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 3: It's really fo of you, matten't you. You just can't 331 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 3: see the north star. No, you walk into traffic. It's 332 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: how much of a guy if it had out. 333 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 2: The feeling going into that free agent summer too. I 334 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 2: remember it because we loved it. 335 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 3: We loved that Clipper, so we were crowing like a rooster. 336 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 3: We were. I don't think we went as far as 337 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 3: to put Adam on like Rogan and Rodbney before. We 338 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 3: were pretty geeked up. 339 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 2: I mean it was a likable roster.

It was 365 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 2: a fun team. It was a scrappy team. It was 366 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 2: a team that outperformed their projected win total by ten games. 367 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 2: That team that year that we thought was going to 368 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 2: be this great pitch for all these free agents almost 369 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 2: won fifty games. They went forty eight and thirty four 370 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 2: with no stars, nearly fifty wins. In the six years 371 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 2: since Kawhi Leonard has been here, they have won. Remember 372 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 2: that team won forty eight.

Now, 376 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 2: that year before Kawhi, their payroll was one hundred and 377 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 2: eighteen million bucks. It jumped to one thirty two, one 378 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 2: thirty seven one, sixty six, one ninety three. It is 379 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 2: two hundred and two now two hundred and three million 380 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 2: this year, nearly ninety million war than it was in 381 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 2: eighteen nineteen, and they are three and seven. Nobody is 382 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 2: going to the games despite it being the best freaking 383 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: basketball experience in arena in any sport, forget basketball.

They traded all of that for the 392 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 2: perennially hurt poster child of load management ineffective.
