Speaker 1: The following takes place between seven pm and eight pm.
Speaker 2: All right, let's get to it. Seven eight seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 2: This is RNL Carrier Sports Talk, presented by Kelsey Chevrolet.
Speaker 2: I'm Lance Bacalister. I am glad you are here. We've
Speaker 2: got two hours to get it done tonight. Settle in
Speaker 2: and uh let's get to work.
Speaker 3: On some things. I'm gonna start here.
Speaker 2: I still find it almost impossible to believe the Indiana
Speaker 2: Hoosiers are the national champions in college football after beating
Speaker 2: Miami last night. I mean, we can complain all we
Speaker 2: want about the state of college football. That was one
Speaker 2: hell of a football game, and IU is one hell
Speaker 2: of a story. Kurt Signetti was right. He just wins
Speaker 2: twenty seven and two in two seasons.
Speaker 3: How about the.
Speaker 2: Fourth and five call pushes all the chips into the middle,
Speaker 2: and how about the run? And I still can't believe
Speaker 2: that the hits he took, the run by Fernando Mendoza
Speaker 2: and the initial hit and then the reach and they
Speaker 2: hit and the touchdown. He had to have needed help
Speaker 2: getting out of bed this morning because he took an
Speaker 2: absolute beating, including several cheap shots last night. Give Miami Credit.
Speaker 2: They answered adversity with two clutch touchdown drives late. But
Speaker 2: I and maybe maybe my excitement for this topic stems
Speaker 2: from my connection to the state of Indiana and to IU.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't consider ie you my favorite teams, but I
Speaker 2: do have a connection to the state of Indiana. I
Speaker 2: moved to Carmel from Cincinnati in the eighties. I went
Speaker 2: to high school in Indiana. I went to college in Indiana.
Speaker 2: I worked four years in Indiana. From a period of
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty to nineteen ninety two, I was in the
Speaker 2: state of Indiana. My sister went to IU. I spent
Speaker 2: a summer on the campus of IU for journalism camp
Speaker 2: when I was in high school.
Speaker 3: Mary Benedict the legend.
Speaker 2: I watched as a Bob Knight fan, Perfection as a
Speaker 2: ten year old in nineteen seventy six, I watched Isaiah
Speaker 2: lead them. In nineteen eighty one, I was at Butler
Speaker 2: watching from my dorm room at Ross Hall when Keith
Speaker 2: Smart hit the jumper from the corner of the wing
Speaker 2: on the pass from Dean Garrett. In college, I traveled
Speaker 2: to so many games in Bloomington. When I was interning
Speaker 2: at WRTV six, the India ABC affiliate to cover Indiana
Speaker 2: games to get postgame sound during the Bill Mallory years,
Speaker 2: he was there for thirteen years. We had season tickets
Speaker 2: when Sam Weish was their coach in the nineteen eighty
Speaker 2: three season, and man the football at times, oh man,
Speaker 2: it was tough. And it always seemed like Indiana would
Speaker 2: be like five and six or six and five and
Speaker 2: just get into.
Speaker 3: A ball and then lose the bowl game.
Speaker 2: And there was just so much that just wasn't happening
Speaker 2: with Indian footbaul And consider what has taken place in
Speaker 2: the last two years.
Speaker 3: And I looked it up this morning.
Speaker 2: From here to the Bloomington campus, it is one hundred
Speaker 2: and twenty eight miles, And I said last night, I
Speaker 2: tweeted this just before I went to bed. I was
Speaker 2: going to reserve some time for IU conversation tonight and
Speaker 2: IU calls. And somebody said to me today, do you
Speaker 2: think there's any IU listeners? Do you think anybody will call?
Speaker 2: And I said, well, I'm going to find out tonight.
Speaker 2: I would think there would be. With the power of
Speaker 2: a fifty thousand watt blow towards I would think most people.
Speaker 2: If you like sports, I bet you had a conversation
Speaker 2: today about the IU game last night. If you are
Speaker 2: an IU fan, the bat signal is officially out to
Speaker 2: you at five one, three, seven four nine, seven thousand,
Speaker 2: one eight hundred, the big one. If you're just a
Speaker 2: college football fan, if you're just a sports fan in general,
Speaker 2: and stand up and watch last night and have something
Speaker 2: to say about that game. I thought it was worthy
Speaker 2: of what we would call in radio terms, a topic
Speaker 2: a tonight. The first thing out of the shoot is
Speaker 2: IU football, and I don't know if that's gonna net
Speaker 2: a lot of calls. I don't know if it's gonna
Speaker 2: net no calls. I have no idea. I had the
Speaker 2: same conversation with my dad on the way in today.
Speaker 2: I said, I really don't know what to expect. But
Speaker 2: my sense is the game was so good and the
Speaker 2: storyline is so good that somebody will want to talk
Speaker 2: about what has transpired with Indiana basketball. To think that
Speaker 2: fifty years ago IU basketball was thirty two to h
Speaker 2: in national champs under Bob Knight, and no college basketball
Speaker 2: team has gone undefeated since, and that now last night,
Speaker 2: the Indiana football team, at sixteen and oho becomes an
Speaker 2: unbeat national champ and to backpedal to make this a
Speaker 2: little bit bigger of a picture, to expand rather than backpedal.
Speaker 2: The state of Indiana has authored the following Think about
Speaker 2: this for a second. The nineteen fifty four mile in
Speaker 2: high school storybook state Championship team, smallest school. They turned
Speaker 2: it into a movie Hoosiers IU Basketball. Then in eighteen
Speaker 2: twenty seventy six, twenty two years later goes thirty two
Speaker 2: to zero. Nobody has done that since. Nobody in college
Speaker 2: basketball has gone undefeated since My Butler Bulldogs. Yes I'm
Speaker 2: going to include my Butler Bulldogs. Out of the Horizon League,
Speaker 2: a school of four thousand went not just to the
Speaker 2: final four, but to the national Championship Game. And then
Speaker 2: to prove it was that a fluke went right back
Speaker 2: the next year to not just the Final four, but
Speaker 2: the national Championship game. Almost won the first one if
Speaker 2: a shot from Gordon Hayward and just like give me
Speaker 2: three inches to the and then you have the Indiana
Speaker 2: Hoosiers claiming the national championship.
Speaker 3: In college football, are you kidding me?
Speaker 4: Indiana?
Speaker 2: I entered last season with the most losses in the
Speaker 2: history of college football. They are the national champs tonight.
Speaker 2: They were preseason number twenty. If you ever needed another
Speaker 2: reason and not pay any attention to preseason bowls, they
Speaker 2: were preseason number twenty and they were picked to finish
Speaker 2: sixth in the Big Ten and their national champs. I
Speaker 2: believe AU football was established in eighteen ninety nine. They've
Speaker 2: won six bowl games. They won three in the first
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five years. They've won three in
Speaker 2: the last nineteen days or so, probably more than that.
Speaker 2: I mean, think about that for a second. They won
Speaker 2: six in the history of the school. They won three
Speaker 2: in this playoff format. So that's our starting point tonight.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's one person who wants to say, nice job,
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. I just felt it was worthy of conversation
Speaker 2: because of how good that game last night was and
Speaker 2: how incredible the story is, because you know his story
Speaker 2: is good when you're not sure what to compare it to.
Speaker 2: I was reading in the Athletic today and the line
Speaker 2: was Indiana's turnaround is one of the most unlikely stories
Speaker 2: in American sports history. And I started thinking about it,
Speaker 2: and I said, I don't I don't know where to
Speaker 2: begin on what it would be comparable to. I have
Speaker 2: no idea, And then I was asked further complicating this,
Speaker 2: I was asked last week the question was, well, if
Speaker 2: Indianna wins this, what's more impressive the nineteen seventy six
Speaker 2: basketball team going undefeated or the twenty twenty five football
Speaker 2: team going undefeated and claiming a national championship. And I
Speaker 2: don't even know how to begin to compare that. So
Speaker 2: I'm starting with a lot of questions. I guess I'm
Speaker 2: looking for answers, and I'm giving you a phone number
Speaker 2: at five one, three, seven four nine, seven thousand, one,
Speaker 2: eight hundred, the Big One. We'll see what we got next.
Speaker 2: Right now, Carrier Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevrolet seven hundred.
Speaker 3: WWW. The field and it is and are something.
Speaker 5: By Indiana.
Speaker 1: A play.
Speaker 2: Then it is Tomori Shirk who comes on for.
Speaker 3: The bang and he runs in the They're gonna come anally?
Speaker 2: What all the hair standing up on my arms? The
Speaker 2: goat Don Fischer, by the way, Drew Andy Furman, the legend,
Speaker 2: checked in off air and says, hey, you know, Indiana
Speaker 2: trailed Old Dominion seven nothing in the first game of
Speaker 2: the season. Think about that, Thank you, Drew, think about it?
Speaker 2: Trailed seven nothing, to Old Dominion in the very first
Speaker 2: game of the season. In fact, in that game, Indiana fumbled.
Speaker 2: You know what Indiana did not do the rest of
Speaker 2: the year lose a fumble. They lost that fumble in
Speaker 2: the first quarter, did not lose another fumble the rest
Speaker 2: of the year. They went over a thousand offensive plays
Speaker 2: and fifteen games and only lost one fumble in the
Speaker 2: opener to Old Dominion. Incredible statistic. Great to hear from
Speaker 2: Andy Furman. By the way, that voice you heard Don
Speaker 2: Fisher fifty third year as the legendary Hall of Fame announcer,
Speaker 2: seventy eight years old, and Don Fisher can lay claim
Speaker 2: to being behind the microphone when Indiana went thirty two
Speaker 2: and oh under the General Robert Montgomery night in nineteen
Speaker 2: seventy six, and behind the mic last night when the
Speaker 2: Indiana football program finished an unbeaten season to claim a
Speaker 2: national championship. Unbelievable. I've got one an Indiana fan in
Speaker 2: indian By the way, they're listening in Bloomington, Bloomington tonight.
Speaker 2: Shout out to Bloomington, Indiana listening on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 2: They're listening in Lincoln, Nebraska tonight and they have checked
Speaker 2: in from Naperville, Illinois.
Speaker 3: That's where Kelly's from.
Speaker 2: So hello to all and thank you for using the
Speaker 2: Iheard Radio app to listen to sports talk wherever you
Speaker 2: are around the country and around the world. Are Indiana
Speaker 2: fan in Indie? Mike, you were on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 4: Oh Lance, I am just deliriously happy today.
Speaker 3: Man, unbelievable.
Speaker 4: Yes, honestly, everything all season has felt like, Okay, well,
Speaker 4: then you know, they get to this next step, but
Speaker 4: that's you know, that's where this ends, where you know.
Speaker 4: And then they got to the Big Ten championship game,
Speaker 4: and once they beat Ohio State and it wasn't a fluke.
Speaker 4: It wasn't you know, some crazy play that did it.
Speaker 4: It was they stood toe to toe with Ohio State.
Speaker 4: That was the turning point for me in terms of
Speaker 4: just Okay, this team can do whatever they want.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good way to put it, because they
Speaker 2: became a machine. I mean once they hit, once they
Speaker 2: hit the playoffs in Steamroll, Alabama, and just I mean,
Speaker 2: my goodness, I think in the end I saw they
Speaker 2: outscored their opponents six sixty six to one eighty seven.
Speaker 3: Holy cow.
Speaker 4: Yeah, just an amazing an amazing, amazing game yesterday was
Speaker 4: a little more tense than I was ready for, but
Speaker 4: you know, it just it could not have The whole
Speaker 4: ride has been unbelievable.
Speaker 3: Was it to go out to the Rose Bowl?
Speaker 4: Oh? I saw friends that I haven't seen in twenty
Speaker 4: five years since I was in college. So everything about
Speaker 4: it has been awesome.
Speaker 2: Oh that's very cool, Mike. I appreciate you. Listen, thanks
Speaker 2: for calling. Yep, have a good night. It was one
Speaker 2: of those games, one of those connections. I'm texting my
Speaker 2: sister late last night, who lives in Marietta, Georgia, who's
Speaker 2: an IU grad. I'm texting one of my best friends
Speaker 2: who I went to high school with, Gary Hamblin, who
Speaker 2: lives in North Carolina, who went to IU. I spent
Speaker 2: many weekends on the IU campus in his dorm room,
Speaker 2: hanging out weekends in Bloomington. It's one of those things
Speaker 2: you start texting everybody you know who has a connection
Speaker 2: to the Indiana Hoosiers. Right, so we got an IU fan.
Speaker 2: I'm happy about that. I'd certainly take more, but let
Speaker 2: me take care of some headlines before the bottom of
Speaker 2: the hour and check on news college basketball tonight. Speaking
Speaker 2: of Bloomington, the Indiana Hoosiers the basketball team off to
Speaker 2: a slow start today. Yikes, about nine minutes to go
Speaker 2: in the first half in and Arbor tonight, Indiana trailing Michigan.
Speaker 2: Talk about a good team, Michigan on top of the
Speaker 2: Hoosiers twenty two to eight. The Miami RedHawks have jumped
Speaker 2: out to a twenty two to fifteen leader for Kent State.
Speaker 2: Miami trying to get to twenty and zero in the
Speaker 2: season I saw yesterday IU. Miami was actually a point
Speaker 2: and a half underdog in that game. This morning, the
Speaker 2: line had flipped in Miami became a one and a
Speaker 2: half point favorite to begin the day. Miami with about
Speaker 2: the eleven minutes to go in the first half, leading
Speaker 2: twenty make it twenty five fifteen updating before my very eyes,
Speaker 2: a twenty eight footer by Elmer gives him a ten
Speaker 2: point lead. What else on the scoreboard? Ohio State at
Speaker 2: the half leading Minnesota in Big twelve Big Ten play
Speaker 2: thirty one, twenty eight and the Ohio Bobcats trailing Northern
Speaker 2: Illinois now leading make it thirteen to eleven, about eleven
Speaker 2: minutes to go in the first half. Rest of the
Speaker 2: games we will monitor and report throughout the evening. The
Speaker 2: Baseball Hall of Fame has two more members, the class
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty six. Couple outfitters Carlos Beltran and Beltron
Speaker 2: and Andrew Jones. Beltron nine time All Star, four hundred
Speaker 2: and thirty five home runs, three goal gloves, Andrew Jones
Speaker 2: ten goal gloves, four hundred and thirty four home runs.
Speaker 3: In fact, what did I see here?
Speaker 2: Beltron got eighty four point two percent of the vote.
Speaker 2: Andrew Jones got seventy eight point four percent of the vote,
Speaker 2: seventy five needed for entry. Next in line at fifty
Speaker 2: nine point one percent, Chase Utley leading the way over
Speaker 2: the likes of Pettitt, who got just over forty eight percent.
Speaker 2: King Felix Sernandez got forty six percent, a big jump
Speaker 2: from last year. Ay Rod got forty percent, Manny Ramirez
Speaker 2: thirty eight point eight. Bobby Bray who very underrated in
Speaker 2: my opinion, got thirty point eight percent of the vote.
Speaker 2: If U realize, there are now eight braves from those
Speaker 2: nineties teams. Eight braves in fact, all played together, are
Speaker 2: all part of the ninety seven team in the Hall
Speaker 2: of Fame. Andrew Jones Chipper Jones, Fred McGriff, Tom Glavin,
Speaker 2: Greg Maddox, John Smoltz, the manager Bobby Cox, and the
Speaker 2: general manager John Shirhols. Holy cow. That a lot of
Speaker 2: that group part of what was fourteen straight division titles
Speaker 2: during that time frame.
Speaker 3: What else?
Speaker 2: Tomorrow night, Xavier takes on two game winning streak to
Speaker 2: Omaha to take on Creighton at seven. Joe and Byron
Speaker 2: with it on fifty five care see Bearcats are in
Speaker 2: Tucson to take on number one ranked Arizona. Coverage with
Speaker 2: Dan and Terry starting at eight thirty. Scott Springer checks
Speaker 2: in from the scene from the Acquirer at eight. NFL
Speaker 2: John Harbaugh officially introduced as coach of the Giants.
Speaker 3: The Titans tab Robert Sala as their new head coach.
Speaker 2: NFL Conference Championship Sunday, Patriots at the Broncos at three,
Speaker 2: Rams at the Seahawks at six thirty. Both games here
Speaker 2: on seven hundred und up. All right, final thoughts on
Speaker 2: IU maybe as we hit the bottom of the hour.
Speaker 2: Their most recent bowl win entering this college football playoff
Speaker 2: was the Copper Bowl in nineteen ninety one. That's three
Speaker 2: straight national titles for the Big Ten Michigan, Ohio State, Indiana.
Speaker 2: Somebody check on Paul Finebaum and Indiana beat Oregon twice,
Speaker 2: Ohio State, Alabama, Miami. They won five games against teams
Speaker 2: that finished in the committee's top ten to win the
Speaker 2: national championship. I'll tell you what that Charlie Becker. All
Speaker 2: he does is make big catch. I've never seen a
Speaker 2: guy make as many tough contested catches as Charlie Becker does.
Speaker 2: And one final note, this flew me away. Indiana was
Speaker 2: the first team in thirty years to win a first
Speaker 2: time I'M national championship. That goes back to the Florida Gators.
Speaker 2: Think about that. Everybody else in the previous twenty nine
Speaker 2: years when they won it had won one previously. That
Speaker 2: to me is an incredible stat You know, I you
Speaker 2: multiple national championships, Uh team, multiple teams, Alabama multiple national championships.
Speaker 2: Indiana is the last team to win their first national
Speaker 2: championship in the last thirty years. Unbelievable. All right, Tom,
Speaker 2: Maybe another segment with some Indiana fans. Five one, three, seven, four, nine,
Speaker 2: seven thousand, one eight hundred, The Big One, the idea
Speaker 2: of comparing the two. I don't know where to begin
Speaker 2: I'll try to figure that out. Next RNL Carrier Sports
Speaker 2: Talk presented by Kelsey Chevrolet seven hundred WLW, He's.
Speaker 6: Got Ty talks on the nine times up Waves as
Speaker 6: we first time gop diving, Cody all Town tapsdown.
Speaker 4: Trophy.
Speaker 3: I still.
Speaker 2: Won the play call, and you just got the sense
Speaker 2: that Kurt Signetti did not think the way Miami was
Speaker 2: running the football. He just got a sense that he
Speaker 2: did not think Indiana was going to be able to
Speaker 2: slow Miami and could not kick a field goal at
Speaker 2: that point. He goes for it fourth and five and
Speaker 2: a keeper Mendoza gets hit and then gets hit again
Speaker 2: and reaches out and got clobor to the goal line
Speaker 2: and gets the touchdown. You know, Andy Furman checking it
Speaker 2: off here and mentioning, I you trailed Old Dominion. It
Speaker 2: got me thinking how many times Indiana even trailed this season.
Speaker 2: They trailed in the fourth quarter against Iowa thirteen to ten.
Speaker 2: They trailed in the fourth quarter against Penn State when
Speaker 2: Mendoza comes up with the big touchdown in the catch
Speaker 2: in the back of the end zone, they win the game.
Speaker 2: And they trailed Ohio State in the third quarter. They
Speaker 2: did not trail during the playoff runs the Indiana Hoosiers
Speaker 2: claim the national championship. You know, I was thinking during
Speaker 2: the break I am. In nineteen ninety one, Indiana opened
Speaker 2: the season against Notre Dame in South Bend, and I
Speaker 2: was working at the CBS station in South Bend at
Speaker 2: that point, and we did an hour long season opening
Speaker 2: special on the game. So they sent me to South
Speaker 2: or to Bloomington for Indiana Media Day to start the season,
Speaker 2: and you know, did a whole bunch of interviews to
Speaker 2: put in the can, as they say, to have them
Speaker 2: ready for our season opening preview and talk with Bill
Speaker 2: Mallory and Trent Green and guys like that. I you
Speaker 2: lost that opener forty nine twenty seven in South Bend.
Speaker 2: They wound up going to the Copper Bowl and they
Speaker 2: won that the last time they had won a bowl
Speaker 2: game prior to this run at the end of that
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety one season with Trent Green as a quarterback.
Speaker 2: But man, I incite I you had a running back
Speaker 2: around that time who I watched in high school. Sheared
Speaker 2: in Indiana shared in high school, named Brent Law. They
Speaker 2: had Anthony Thompson at one point, they had Von Dunbar
Speaker 2: at one point who I watched play high school football
Speaker 2: at Fort Wayne Snyder. I think it was I'll never
Speaker 2: forget when Terry Hepnor took the job there. I remember
Speaker 2: asking him, why are you taking that job? And he said,
Speaker 2: I'm going to win. And sadly Terry was there two
Speaker 2: years and then the health issues and then sadly he
Speaker 2: passed away and I'm miss him dearly. When I was
Speaker 2: at Butler, Butler's coach was Bill Lynch, who eventually took
Speaker 2: over at IU. Cam Cameron, a quarterback at IU, was
Speaker 2: their head coach for a time in Twine Randall All
Speaker 2: in the late nineties was a fantastic player for Indiana football.
Speaker 2: I mean, the legendary story back to the League Courso
Speaker 2: days is that at one point in Bloomington, with Indiana
Speaker 2: leading Ohio State, Indiana had not led Ohio State in
Speaker 2: a game in like a quarter of a century. And
Speaker 2: if I remember this correctly, Indiana took the lead one
Speaker 2: Saturday against Ohio States seven to six, and Lee Corso
Speaker 2: called time out and they took a picture of the scoreboard,
Speaker 2: the team in the sidelines with the scoreboard in the
Speaker 2: background showing that Indiana was leading Ohio State.
Speaker 3: I will never forget that.
Speaker 2: And Sam Wish was there for the nineteen eighty three
Speaker 2: season for his one year and then took over took
Speaker 2: over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Speaker 3: I keep thinking about.
Speaker 2: What the athletic wrote today and trying to put it
Speaker 2: in terms of what it is comparable to, and the
Speaker 2: line was Indiana's turnaround is one of the most unlikely
Speaker 2: stories in American sports history. I want to say, like
Speaker 2: Cinderella story, but this isn't. This isn't a worst to
Speaker 2: first story. This isn't like a team that finished last
Speaker 2: one year and then won the Super Bowl the next year,
Speaker 2: or finished last one year and won the World Series
Speaker 2: the next year. This was, to begin the season the
Speaker 2: worst college foot ball team in the history of college
Speaker 2: football program. I mean, the team last year obviously lost
Speaker 2: to Indiana or at lost to Ohio State in the
Speaker 2: College or Notre Dame Inhio and the college football playoffs.
Speaker 2: But it's the bigger picture of what the program was
Speaker 2: two years ago to winning the national championship. I mean,
Speaker 2: sure you could say the I guess the eighty miracle
Speaker 2: on ice, but I just don't know that there's something
Speaker 2: that I would I would find a fair apples to
Speaker 2: apples comparison of just what the turnound is like. If
Speaker 2: this is up to date, and I think it is,
Speaker 2: Indiana is one of an eye. I would not have
Speaker 2: guessed there were this many schools. Indiana is one of
Speaker 2: eleven schools to win a national championship in both football
Speaker 2: and basketball. And a lot of this goes back to
Speaker 2: teams wanted in the fifties in football, and there were
Speaker 2: there were so many different way whether it was the
Speaker 2: Coach's Pole or the upa United Press International Poll. There
Speaker 2: were different designations for now national championships, national champions and
Speaker 2: that's evolved over the years and computers and bcs and
Speaker 2: to the College Football Playoff. But the list I saw
Speaker 2: this morning, including Indiana now is UCLA. UCLA won a
Speaker 2: shared a national championship in nineteen fifty four with Ohio State,
Speaker 2: Ohio State, Syracuse, Maryland, Michigan State, cal Florida, Arkansas, Michigan,
Speaker 2: Stanford to go along with Indiana, one of eleven schools
Speaker 2: to lay claim to a national championship in both football
Speaker 2: and basketball. And I'm assuming for the sake of this,
Speaker 2: none of those other ten, let's see, UCLA would have
Speaker 2: had undefeated. Wait, well, wait a minute, did UCLA's national
Speaker 2: championship football team have an undefeated season? I was wondering
Speaker 2: if Indiana is the only one to have an undefeated
Speaker 2: national champ in both sports, but certainly John Woodin's Bruins
Speaker 2: had sixty seven seventy two to seventy three unbeaten, and
Speaker 2: I think that fifty four football team went undefeated from
Speaker 2: memory of looking it up earlier this morning. The other
Speaker 2: question I was asked, and I think this is almost impossible,
Speaker 2: is which one's more impressive winning a college basketball national
Speaker 2: championship going thirty two and oh in nineteen seventy six
Speaker 2: or winning the college football national championship going sixteen to
Speaker 2: oh in twenty twenty five twenty twenty six season. No
Speaker 2: one's ever gone sixteen and oh in winning the national
Speaker 2: championship because the season hasn't been that long. For the
Speaker 2: most part, I think time would be on the side
Speaker 2: of the argument for basketball because it has stood up
Speaker 2: for fifty years nobody's which makes it more impressive. But
Speaker 2: the football team hasn't had years, you know, to add
Speaker 2: to its resume for the argument. But fifty years nobody
Speaker 2: else has finished in undefeated National championship season in college basketball.
Speaker 2: That was an experienced Indiana team in seventy six. You
Speaker 2: can talk about the age of this IU team, but
Speaker 2: I would I would argue it would have been easier
Speaker 2: from a basketball standpoint with four year players that you
Speaker 2: recruited and developed and there wasn't the transfer portal and
Speaker 2: Nil and Jez. That team in seventy six would have
Speaker 2: been Scotty May would have been a senior, Quinn Buckner
Speaker 2: would have been a senior, Bobby Wilkerson a senior, Tom
Speaker 2: Abernathy a senior, Jim Cruz a senior, and I think
Speaker 2: Kent Benson was a junior on that team, So that
Speaker 2: it was easier that you that Bob Knight had a
Speaker 2: group that he he groomed and developed and coached up.
Speaker 2: Kurt Signetti added what twenty two players in the transfer
Speaker 2: portal this year. I still find it amazing that he
Speaker 2: added last season he had added I think fourteen players
Speaker 2: from James Madison, his previous school as part of the
Speaker 2: foundation for all of this. You know, somebody on my
Speaker 2: Facebook page asked answered this question by simply saying, do
Speaker 2: we have to choose?
Speaker 3: And I said, if you're an IU fan.
Speaker 2: No, you don't have to because you've got a national
Speaker 2: champion in both So maybe that ultimately is the best answer.
Speaker 2: All right, Heading down the Stretch on Saturday night, it's
Speaker 2: one of the coolest scenes around the area.
Speaker 3: Each year.

Speaker 2: in what's going.
Speaker 5: To happen, absolutely so. The Cyclone host of Fort Wayne
Speaker 5: comments this Saturday, it's a four pm puck trop And
Speaker 5: those that don't know what the teddy Bear toss is.
Speaker 5: Once the Cyclones score their first goal of the game,
Speaker 5: you can bring as many bears as you like to
Speaker 5: the building and you throw them over the glass, throw
Speaker 5: them at the opposing goalie if you like, and all
Speaker 5: those bears go to a great cause. They benefit our
Speaker 5: Cincinnati Police Cincinnati FD and it's all amazing. Matthew twenty
Speaker 5: five minutes. Striies also in the mix.

Speaker 5: year I said that broadcast is before me. What warned
Speaker 5: me that if they if people don't like you, they'll
Speaker 5: turn around soll bears at you. So I must be
Speaker 5: doing a pretty good job because nobody throw a bear
Speaker 5: at me last year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 2: Okay, So so backtrack a little bit here, refresh my memory.
Speaker 2: Does this take place when a goal is scored or
Speaker 2: when the game is over? What's the moment that triggers it?
Speaker 5: All? The Cyclone's first goal, so it could happen at
Speaker 5: any point.
Speaker 3: Last year we got down to the wire.
Speaker 5: It's like five minutes to go in the game, but
Speaker 5: it could happen as soon as the Cyclone score.
Speaker 2: And the fact that it's a matt and Ay I

Speaker 2: FEST i would make it brighter inside Of Reds, fest
Speaker 2: like in the interior of. It for whatever, reason it
Speaker 2: always seems dark to. ME i would lighten things, that
Speaker 2: like put a spotlight on everything that's inside. There it's so,
Speaker 2: big and it always seems to be like there's a
Speaker 2: light turned, Off LIKE i want to look for a
Speaker 2: light switch and like flip a. Switch AND i would
Speaker 2: dramatically change the ratio of autograph. LINES i would dramatically
Speaker 2: reduce autograph opportunities for adults and dramatically increase the opportunities for.
Speaker 2: KIDS i, MEAN i might have like two lines for
Speaker 2: adults and every other line would be for kids IF
Speaker 2: i were in, charge But i'm.

Speaker 2: what that new addition means to their, bullpen WHICH I
Speaker 2: i don't think there's enough attention paid to stuff like.
Speaker 2: This let's pick it up WITH i Ask, amelia who
Speaker 2: Remember Emelio pagan was a free. Agent we did a
Speaker 2: topic what of our early questions in the offseason was
Speaker 2: would you re Sign Emilio pegan who had a fantastic
Speaker 2: season but was a free agent and the thought was
Speaker 2: he might command upwards OF i don't, know twelve, thirteen
Speaker 2: fourteen million dollars multi year.
Speaker 3: Deal would you do something like?
Speaker 2: That they wind up getting him for it's a one
Speaker 2: year with an. Option it's one year at ten, million
Speaker 2: and then an option for a second year with a bio.
Speaker 2: Attached BUT i Asked emelio On friday, night up on
Speaker 2: the stage At redsfest During Sports, talk how it feels
Speaker 2: to be back with The cincinnati redstigalisten an incredible.
Speaker 6: FEELING i don't, know IF i have the words to
Speaker 6: really explain you know how it. Feels it's, surreal. Humbling you,
Speaker 6: KNOW i KNEW i definitely wanted to be back In,
Speaker 6: cincinnati and you, know as great as the money, is
Speaker 6: and yet you, know we get paid a lot of
Speaker 6: money to play this, game BUT i wasn't going to
Speaker 6: go somewhere just because somebody was handing me the biggest.
Speaker 6: CONTRACT i wanted to go somewhere WHERE i felt like
Speaker 6: we had a chance to a, win win some special ball,
Speaker 6: games but somewhere WHERE i was, comfortable WHERE i had
Speaker 6: great relationship with my teammates and the coaching, staff and
Speaker 6: REALLY i wanted to help build, something you, know AND
Speaker 6: i really do truly believe we're building something special here
Speaker 6: And i'm very grateful to be a part of.
Speaker 2: It you were in seventy games last. Year what did
Speaker 2: it mean to be, available ready and able that many?
Speaker 6: Times, yeah that's you know WHEN i WHEN i first
Speaker 6: signed here In december of twenty, three that's that's something
Speaker 6: THAT i pride myself on my entire, career and so
Speaker 6: WHEN i wasn't able to do that in twenty, four
Speaker 6: that that left a very sour.
Speaker 3: Taste in my. MOUTH i felt.
Speaker 6: BAD i felt LIKE i let the organization, DOWN i
Speaker 6: let my teammates, DOWN i let all these fans. Down and,
Speaker 6: so you, know sometimes injuries are out of our. CONTROL
Speaker 6: i had the hernia surgery going into the, season AND
Speaker 6: i wasn't able to prepare myself the WAY i normally
Speaker 6: do in the. Offseason and so as soon as we
Speaker 6: ended In chicago the twenty four, season you, know work
Speaker 6: started right away to get myself back to WHO i
Speaker 6: BELIEVE i can be as a, pitcher WHO i can
Speaker 6: be as a, teammate and WHAT i can provide for
Speaker 6: a major league, club and so try to put my
Speaker 6: best foot. Forward that doesn't always mean that results are
Speaker 6: going to go the WAY i want them, to BUT
Speaker 6: i definitely wanted to be out there as much AS i,
Speaker 6: can and HOPEFULLY i can do.
Speaker 3: The same thing this year and be out there a
Speaker 3: bunch of. Times take me, back it Was.
Speaker 2: September you guys are in a, playoff chase high leverage
Speaker 2: moments every night in your saving, games the adrenalines.
Speaker 3: Flow what is that? LIKE i see the spile in your.
Speaker 3: BASE i, mean that's what it's all. About, yeah it's the.
Speaker 6: Best it's the best feeling in the world going out
Speaker 6: there with the ball in your, hand game on the.
Speaker 6: Line you, know obviously it takes a team to get
Speaker 6: to that, spot you, know, like you, know our offense
Speaker 6: has to score, runs our starting pitchers have to get
Speaker 6: deep into, games our bullpen has to get the met
Speaker 6: to the ninth inning with a chance to win the.
Speaker 6: Game so when you go out, there, man there's there's
Speaker 6: a lot of weight that comes with that. Moment, Uh
Speaker 6: and SO i don't take it. Lightly we've got a
Speaker 6: super talented, group And i'm just grateful for every OPPORTUNITY i.
Speaker 6: Get and you, know HOPEFULLY i can do uh close
Speaker 6: to WHAT i did last, year if not, better and
Speaker 6: then we can win a division this.
Speaker 2: Year you've got three new arms in that. Bullpend Pierce
Speaker 2: johnson is your, friend, Correct.
Speaker 6: Yeah one of my best.
Speaker 2: Friends tell, us, yeah tell us the story of Your
Speaker 2: your best friend is now on the. Team and you
Speaker 2: you were doing like some, recruiting, like, dude you got
Speaker 2: to come, here take us through. This.
Speaker 6: Yeah so he, uh he had a club option With
Speaker 6: atlanta coming into this, season AND i thought it was
Speaker 6: a no brainer that they was gonna get picked.
Speaker 3: Up and so when it wasn't.
Speaker 6: Obviously you, KNOW i called him. Immediate well actually he
Speaker 6: he called me probably five minutes after it was declined and, said,
Speaker 6: hey let's go play somewhere. Together AND i, said, allright
Speaker 6: Well i'm going To. Cincinnati they don't know that, yet
Speaker 6: But i'm that's Where i'm. Going and uh SO i.
Speaker 6: WAS i was in his e all off season AND i,
Speaker 6: had you, know my, Wife jordan was talking to his
Speaker 6: Wife christina and talking about, like, hey we could do.
Speaker 3: This you guys can live, here we can live.
Speaker 6: There our kids get along, great and so you, know
Speaker 6: aside from, that he's a super talented pitcher that has
Speaker 6: a pitch that we don't, have you, know we don't
Speaker 6: we don't have a curveball in our bullpen that he.
Speaker 6: Has and so it adds a different, wrinkle a different
Speaker 6: look from our team That tito can go to h
Speaker 6: so that the you, know the opposing hitters aren't seeing
Speaker 6: the same pitch twice in a game where in a, series,
Speaker 6: yeah which just you, know gives us a better opportunity
Speaker 6: to come away with series. Wins and so, yeah, Him
Speaker 6: Caleb ferguson Brought. BURKE i, mean our bullpen has a
Speaker 6: chance to be, really really, good and so you know
Speaker 6: it's our job to got there now and execute at
Speaker 6: a high.
Speaker 2: Level you, know it's funny you mentioned the curve Because
Speaker 2: i'm a big baseball savant, dork AND i noticed he
Speaker 2: throws it about eighty two percent of the.
Speaker 3: Time that's a nasty curve.
Speaker 6: Ball, yeah it's you, know it's arguably one of the
Speaker 6: best curveballs in the. World and so to have that
Speaker 6: that weapon added to our, group you, know it's unique
Speaker 6: to him and we don't have. That and so you,
Speaker 6: Know tony's got the really good. Sleeper you, know mine
Speaker 6: mixes my fastball and Splitter Sam males at the left
Speaker 6: hand and break them all going the other.
Speaker 4: Way you.
Speaker 6: Know Caleb ferguson has kind of got it all with
Speaker 6: the upshoot. Heater he's got a really sneaky arm. Path
Speaker 6: Connor phillips what he was able to, Do luis May Zach.
Speaker 6: Maxwell it's a deep. Group it's a very talented, group

Speaker 2: Sugar i'm thinking of a Former reds. Reliever just his
Speaker 2: his confidence is really. Impressive and it's not a it's
Speaker 2: not a, cockiness but it's just a really impressive awareness
Speaker 2: OF i don't know how to describe. It who he
Speaker 2: is and what he is and what he. Learned AND
Speaker 2: i love the fact that he pointed out in his
Speaker 2: eight appearances last year when The reds called him, up
Speaker 2: he got to face The dodgers, once in The Blue jays,
Speaker 2: twice the two teams that played in The World, series
Speaker 2: and what he learned from those, experiences.
Speaker 3: And JUST i don't, know the way he carries himself
Speaker 3: very very.
Speaker 2: Impressive when he sat down and he sat down next to,
Speaker 2: me me at you, know five, eight one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty five, POUNDS i will, big you are big when
Speaker 2: we come. Back it happened on this date and it
Speaker 2: got me thinking about something we've done in the. Past

Speaker 2: Right Details NEXT Rnl Carrier sportstock presented By Kelsey. Chevallet
Speaker 2: seven HUNDRED wlw seven four seven HUNDRED WLW Rnl carrier
Speaker 2: Sports stock presented By Kelsey. Chevallet Dennis ray is maybe
Speaker 2: the only Time i've ever flashed backed and pulled out
Speaker 2: of the recesses of my. Mind Dennis ray is The Big,
Speaker 2: sweat The reds reliever who appeared in what would have
Speaker 2: been probably like ninety eight through two thousand and one
Speaker 2: for The Cincinnati. Reds there's the big, sweat and there's
Speaker 2: a big, sugar and, uh there you. Go this happened
Speaker 2: on this date In cincinnati sports history or in sports
Speaker 2: history was nineteen eighty, four The Montreal expos signed forty
Speaker 2: two year old free Agent Pete. Road pete would play
Speaker 2: ninety five games for The. Expos collected is a four thousand.
Speaker 2: Hit he did it at home At Jerry, PARK i
Speaker 2: want to say Against Jerry, kusman who was pitching at
Speaker 2: the time for The.
Speaker 3: Phillies the THING i always remember No Olympic.
Speaker 2: Stadium i'm, sorry Not Jerry Park Olympic, stadium because the
Speaker 2: THING i always remember About Olympic stadium in day, games
Speaker 2: the way the sun would shine down the right field
Speaker 2: line and area WHERE i think Of Andre, dawson Not
Speaker 2: andrea at the, time but that ball dropped down that
Speaker 2: line for a double IF i, remember for his four thousand.
Speaker 2: Hit but back to my original point, Here Pete rose
Speaker 2: in An expos uniform was always like a like a
Speaker 2: trigger for me of something that just didn't look. Right
Speaker 2: and it leads me to a topic we've done certainly
Speaker 2: in the. Past AND i think of every TIME i
Speaker 2: think Of pete in An expos uniform looking at his baseball,
Speaker 2: card AND i said that it doesn't look, right and
Speaker 2: it's uniform cameos in the idea of an athlete who
Speaker 2: wound up on a, team and it just you think,
Speaker 2: back and it just never looked.
Speaker 3: Right it just never made, sense.
Speaker 2: Like oh, Man and it happens more and more now
Speaker 2: there's so much movement in the game and free agency
Speaker 2: and guys skipped from one team to the next. Day, Hey,
Speaker 2: Kevin i'm watching AN nba right. Now And Kevin durant
Speaker 2: played for What seattle In Oklahoma, city Then Golden state
Speaker 2: and Then brooklyn and The phoenix and Then houston guys like.
Speaker 3: That so guys are moving all.
Speaker 2: Around but WHEN i think Of Pete, ROSEEN i think
Speaker 2: of The montreal EXPOS i think if.
Speaker 3: Something just didn't look.
Speaker 2: Right it made me think Of cincinnati athletes that wound
Speaker 2: up in another uniform that it just it took a
Speaker 2: while to get used, to never quite looked. Right maybe
Speaker 2: you forgot about it even playing for that, team or
Speaker 2: an athlete that made a cameo appearance With cincinnati teams
Speaker 2: that were so short you forgot.
Speaker 3: ABOUT i, MEAN i think of.
Speaker 2: He never appeared in a major league, Game but WHEN
Speaker 2: i Watched Joey vado in spring trading wearing A Toronto
Speaker 2: Blue jays, UNIFORM i thought Of pete rose in an exposed,
Speaker 2: uniform not because of The canadian, crossover but because he
Speaker 2: just didn't look. Right Joey vado should have only worn
Speaker 2: A red's. Uniform AND i know Also pete wore A phillies,
Speaker 2: uniform but That expo's. Uniform there's just something about looking
Speaker 2: At pete in an exposed uniform THAT i think uniform
Speaker 2: cameos is something Like Joe morgan played for The Oakland
Speaker 2: a's for a time that never looked. Right Rudy johnson
Speaker 2: played for The Detroit. LIONS i think Of rudy In
Speaker 2: bengals AND, i, oh that's. Right he did play for
Speaker 2: The lions for a. Time Chad johnson played for The
Speaker 2: patriots for a. Time and it's not Just cincinnati. ATHLETES
Speaker 2: i think you Know Michael jordan classic. One Michael jordan
Speaker 2: in A wizard's. Uniform no, Way.
Speaker 3: Actually he.
Speaker 2: WAS i don't want to say he was. Great i'm
Speaker 2: not sure he was. Good he was at least you

Speaker 2: points five, rebounds and four assists over two seasons with
Speaker 2: The wizards at the age of thirty. Eight michael. Kids
Speaker 2: Michael jordan played for The Washington wizards for two. Seasons

Speaker 3: CAN i guess all, right my rant on The Baseball
Speaker 3: hall Of fame before we do on this. DATE i JUST.
Speaker 2: I find myself as the years go, on caring less
Speaker 2: or or believing much in The Baseball hall of less
Speaker 2: and less in terms of believability credibility of The Baseball
Speaker 2: hall Of.
Speaker 3: Fame i've been.
Speaker 2: There we were there For King Griffey Junior induction Week
Speaker 2: it's a wonderful town out the middle of. NOWHERE i would,
Speaker 2: recommend and if we ever go, back it will be
Speaker 2: outside of an induction, weekend because induction weekend is. Nuts
Speaker 2: we were there For junior along With Mike. Piazza we'll
Speaker 2: never forget that. Weekend it was me and my dad
Speaker 2: And casey and we did a cross country drive and
Speaker 2: it was. Unbelievable but the whole process to, me has
Speaker 2: become so just frustrating as the years gone. On from
Speaker 2: and it's not even as much A peat thing or
Speaker 2: A bonds or A clemens. Thing it starts with the voting,
Speaker 2: process and to, me the process itself needs a complete
Speaker 2: and total.
Speaker 3: Overhaul AND i say it this.
Speaker 2: Way if The hall Of fame was introduced today and
Speaker 2: they revealed a voting process that they currently, use and
Speaker 2: you were told that the only people voting for The
Speaker 2: Baseball hall Of fame were, writers what would you think
Speaker 2: about that? PROCESS i think if you're like, me you'd,
Speaker 2: say why would you only include? Writers and this started
Speaker 2: back in nineteen thirty six when newspapers were king not
Speaker 2: to step on any newspapers collective. Toes but newspapers aren't
Speaker 2: nearly the thing today that they once. Were THERE'S, tv there's,
Speaker 2: radio there's, newspapers there's a lot of outlets covering. Baseball
Speaker 2: so nobody would believe today if the process was unveiled
Speaker 2: that it should only be writers that vote for The
Speaker 2: Baseball hall Of. Fame and the way it, is you
Speaker 2: have to be a member of The Baseball Writers' association Of,
Speaker 2: america you have to have been an active baseball writer
Speaker 2: for at least ten, years and that it's been that
Speaker 2: way since nineteen thirty. Six, Well i'd argue it might
Speaker 2: be time to update the. Process and this is The
Speaker 2: hall Of fame who dictates. This And i'm not breaking
Speaker 2: news here that media coverage has dramatically changed since nineteen thirty.
Speaker 2: Six think about some of the individuals, that by this
Speaker 2: voting process don't have a vote in the.
Speaker 3: Process Marty.
Speaker 2: Brenneman does anybody believe That Marty, brenneman having been the
Speaker 2: voice of The reds going back to nineteen seventy four
Speaker 2: threw up until what five years, ago should not have
Speaker 2: a vote and a member of The Baseball hall Of
Speaker 2: fame should not have a vote for The hall Of.
Speaker 2: Fame does anybody Believe Bob costas doesn't deserve a vote
Speaker 2: for The hall Of? Fame Or George Grand over the,
Speaker 2: Years George grand hasn't had a vote for The hall Of?
Speaker 2: Fame Michael, Kay Yankees', Voice Pat, Hughes, Cubbs John, Sterling Dan,
Speaker 2: Schulman Dave, Simms John, Rooney Steve, Stone I'm, Hamilton John.
Speaker 3: Miller, seriously they don't have votes for The hall Of.
Speaker 2: FAME a historian Like Bill james doesn't have a vote
Speaker 2: for The hall Of.
Speaker 3: Fame Ken.
Speaker 2: Burns Ken burns Created, baseball The emmy winning documentary that
Speaker 2: details in greater, detail more so than anything that has
Speaker 2: ever detailed the game of the history of the. Game
Speaker 2: and Ken burns does not have a vote for The
Speaker 2: hall Of. Fame Doris, Kerns, Goodwin Steve, Hurt George Will John,
Speaker 2: thorne they are the essence of baseball, historians and they.
Speaker 3: Don't have a.
Speaker 2: VOTE i Just i've never understoodunderstood what would what would
Speaker 2: be wrong with adding some diversity to The hall Of
Speaker 2: fame voting. GROUP i, mean what would be wrong With
Speaker 2: And i'm not saying take it away from the. Writers
Speaker 2: if you've been a ten year member of The Baseball
Speaker 2: Writers association Of america and been an active baseball writer
Speaker 2: for at least ten, years more power to. You let's
Speaker 2: give you, know forty five percent of the voting process
Speaker 2: goes to that. Group forty five percent comes from the
Speaker 2: broadcasters and executives and, historians and give Living hall of
Speaker 2: famers ten percent weight on the.
Speaker 3: VOTE I i'm just throwing that out there for.
Speaker 2: STARTERS i just know, this anything would be better that
Speaker 2: adhering to the way the rule was initially he set
Speaker 2: up in nineteen thirty. Six, then don't even get me
Speaker 2: started about the size of the ballot and who gets
Speaker 2: voted on and the philosophy Of, No i'm gonna make
Speaker 2: him wait for a, Year i'm gonna make him wait
Speaker 2: for two.
Speaker 3: Years i'll make him wait for. THREE i said it.
Speaker 2: Earlier Andrew, jones when he first appeared to the ballot
Speaker 2: in twenty, eighteen got just over seven percent of the.
Speaker 2: Vote seven percent of those baseball writers Thought Andrew jones
Speaker 2: was A hall Of. Famer now in twenty, twenty seventy
Speaker 2: eight percent of the writers believe he's A hall Of.
Speaker 2: Famer you know What Andrew jones has not done between
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen and tonight's reveal in twenty twenty. Six he's
Speaker 2: not played a single baseball.
Speaker 3: Game it just.
Speaker 2: That and don't even get me started on the whole
Speaker 2: idea Of if The Baseball hall Of fame is a
Speaker 2: record of a gallery of the greatest to ever play
Speaker 2: the game in an institution that tells the history of the,
Speaker 2: Game i'm sorry this will not sit well with, some probably.
Speaker 2: Many there is no way you can tell the history
Speaker 2: of the game and not include the greats that include
Speaker 2: the man who won the MOST Mvp, Awards Barry, bonds
Speaker 2: the most Cy Young, Awards Roger, clemens and who has
Speaker 2: the most hits In Pete. Rose AND i will till
Speaker 2: the DAY i die believe that you should be able
Speaker 2: to have those players in The hall Of fame and
Speaker 2: on their include their. Transgressions and if that means dad
Speaker 2: or grandfather with son or grandson in The hall Of,
Speaker 2: fame taking the, tour looking at that plaque and having
Speaker 2: Little johnny, Say, dad tell me About Barry bonds and
Speaker 2: Saying Barry bonds was one of the most dominant players
Speaker 2: in the history of the, game who also was accused
Speaker 2: of steroid use during an embarrassing era of the. Game
Speaker 2: then so be. IT i think we will survive because
Speaker 2: you know, what the records that are held By Barry
Speaker 2: bonds And Roger clemens And Pete, rose they are all
Speaker 2: recognized By Major League. Baseball those records haven't been scrapped
Speaker 2: from the record, books washed from the record.
Speaker 3: Books they are recognized.
Speaker 2: Today and to do that and not include them in
Speaker 2: The Baseball hall Of fame tells me there's a whole
Speaker 2: bunch of people at The hall Of fame who need
Speaker 2: to get over, themselves because in the, end it's just
Speaker 2: The Baseball hall Of, fame and that tells the tale
Speaker 2: of the greatest to ever play and at the same
Speaker 2: time the history of the. Game and there's a lot
Speaker 2: of embarrassing. Things there's a lot of different eras that
Speaker 2: baseball has gone through over the. Years there was a
Speaker 2: period where blacks were not allowed to. Play there was
Speaker 2: a period of, steroids there was a period of, expansion
Speaker 2: there was a period of the dead ball, era on
Speaker 2: and on and, on and it JUST i don't know
Speaker 2: WHY i get it so worked up about this every.
