Yes, which, by the way, Kobe Bryant fans 54 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: don't eve want to acknowledge. 55 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 3: I believe that as the record. 56 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 4: I'm taking a picture of our guy, Pierre Nusham, by 57 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 4: the way, doing doing fan interviews. Is he in the 58 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 4: crowd of Fox nine's cover. 59 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: So is he wearing a slicker? Yeah, it looks like. 60 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 4: A pretty heavy jacket jacklicker. Necessarily, it looks like a 61 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 4: nice Columbia jacket. He's got his Fox nine Unreal hoodie 62 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 4: on underneath. Well here doesn't love the bad weather? No, 63 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 4: as a rule, I don't think anybody does. 64 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 2: But I mean, the the kicker about one hundred points 65 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: in a game was you know, the the joke was. 66 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: I think the actual crowd in Hershey, Pennsylvania for that 67 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: game was like seven thousand, right, But the joke is, 68 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 2: like three million people have claimed they were at that game, right, 69 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: Because it's historic, right there, The idea that an important 70 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 2: or I shouldn't say important event events, but exciting sports events, 71 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: historical events, historic events, people like to pretend they were there, 72 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: whether they were or they're not, whatever the actual crowd 73 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: was exponentially. Will it be the opposite here? Is it 74 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: actually fewer people then show up at target Field? We'll 75 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: actually admit that they were there for opening day? Might 76 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 2: it work the opposite way? I'm not sure. Like I said, 77 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: in ten years, there'll be three million people said that 78 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: opener home Opener twenty twenty six where the. 79 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 3: Power went out, I was there. 80 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: I think it might actually be a smaller number of 81 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: people at that point because by then the poule Lads 82 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: will will have sold. 83 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: We think, oh it'll be done by. 84 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 2: Then, It'll be done by hooker by crook, there's no 85 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: question about it. Like in ten years, I think it'll 86 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: absolutely be done and it will almost be like we 87 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: don't want to we talk about erasure all the time 88 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: and canceling. No one will want to say their names anymore. Well, 89 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 2: here's the question we have. Are there two poule Ad 90 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: statues at target Field? 91 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: Well? 92 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 3: I think it's Carlile always just together of them. Yeah, 93 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 3: well that when when the team is. 94 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 2: Sold, will that statue be allowed to stay or will 95 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: that be removed as part of now that was the 96 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: dark age. Now, they won World Series, but the family 97 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 2: didn't exactly pay off on it, so we can't ever 98 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 2: even acknowledge that part of Minnesota Twins history. 99 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 3: I think you got to keep them up, you do. Yeah, 100 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 3: they didn't win the World Series. They were the owners. 101 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 3: They were the owners. I know. I think you got 102 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 3: to keep them up. 103 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 2: Though you've always been a rank sentimentalist, I'm probably to 104 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 2: a fault. I probably remember he wanted to contract the team. 105 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: I do remember. Forget that, Yes, I do remember that. Yeah, 106 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 2: well we'll see how that goes. I must be in 107 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 2: the minority. Maybe I'm too soft. Well, it's not even 108 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: really a matter of soft or hard. I'm just thinking 109 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: somewhere down the road, when we get irrational about stuff 110 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: like this, we say everything's got to go, everything's got 111 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: to be kind of erased. And I'm thinking, at that point, 112 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: all bets might be off. 113 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 3: And I don't know how many people. 114 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: Were supposed to have for this ball game. Do we 115 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: know what the crowd is is going to be estimated 116 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 2: to be? Now, Lavelle's going to join us earlier than usual, 117 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 2: right three thirty, Yes, assuming his phone has been charging. 118 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: Do we have any like, cause, usually even here where 119 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 2: baseball is a mess and people are bored with the 120 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 2: team and the ownership, opening day you'll still get a 121 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: decent crowd. The next day you might be down to 122 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: eight hundred, correct, but opening day you might get a 123 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 2: decent crowd. 124 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 3: And then here's what I don't know. 125 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 2: Are we doing these kinds of deals like the Brugers 126 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: deal back in the golden Golpher days where if you 127 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: went in and got like a half a dozen bagels, 128 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 2: they'd hand you a dozen free tickets to the Gopher 129 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 2: Penn State game? 130 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 3: Is that? 131 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: Do we have those kinds just to get people in 132 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 2: the seats from you? 133 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: We? 134 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: Are we doing that same kind of thing with the 135 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 2: Twins so that at least we can say on opening 136 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 2: Day there's a decent crowd. 137 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 4: I do know because I followed on Twitter and I'm 138 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 4: actually pulling up it looks like they're done selling tickets 139 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 4: on Twins baseball dot com. I was just curious to 140 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 4: see if you could still sell tickets if you want 141 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 4: a question. I do know that they were calling people 142 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 4: that they have on their list basically offering discounts on 143 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 4: home opener tickets. Within the last seventy two hours, so 144 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 4: they're doing a full court press to try to get 145 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 4: more people in. But I don't know, given and to 146 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 4: answer your first question, given that I have had really 147 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 4: no interest in attending really any of the games, but 148 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 4: certainly the ones right now when it's twelve degrees in rainy, 149 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 4: I haven't really pursued those promotions. So I don't know 150 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 4: to answer your question, others may have answers. 151 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess, well, wait for Laville because he'll he 152 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: might know, although he might inflate the number because Lavelle 153 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 2: can't help himself. He's still a ball guy in hard 154 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: he tries to say no, no, no, I'm critical and I'm 155 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 2: rising above it, but deep down he's invested in a 156 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: day like this. This is the great contradiction of the 157 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: ball guys, who, on the one hand will say, yeah, 158 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: there's a lot of reasons to be critical of ownership 159 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: and so forth, but then they get to the actual season, 160 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, but I got to be there and 161 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: you got to get into it. 162 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I want people to get into it. 163 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: And so then you have this sort of mixed message 164 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: that has continually sent even I would say in the 165 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 2: ball guy community, And you know, I got a text 166 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 2: yesterday from somebody saying, because I responding to a text 167 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: that turned out to be sarcastic, although I didn't not 168 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: at the time, basically saying, well, six o'clock and you 169 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 2: haven't even mentioned the twins victory. He meant it sarcastically, 170 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: like he didn't expect that I would. 171 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 3: I took him literally. 172 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 2: So then I went off on the reason why, basically 173 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 2: we gave it exactly as much weight as it deserved. 174 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 2: And then and and that started the debate going on, 175 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 2: how much are we supposed to talk about how you know, 176 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 2: is it okay to talk about the twins? How much 177 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: twins conversation is fair? And and look, we're going to 178 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 2: mix and match. 179 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 3: And I said this. 180 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 2: When you know, we had Gleaman and studio the other 181 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: day and we talked some twins, but we talked to 182 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 2: other baseball issues as well and some other things. And 183 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: I said, well, the truth of the matter is we 184 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: bring Gleaman on because he's a good guest that really 185 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 2: has more to do with it, yes, than the subject matter. Now, 186 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 2: obviously you have to go with his specialty to an extent, 187 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: which is that, but that's you know kind of more 188 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 2: of the of the bit of it. So we'll see 189 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 2: Bratchean Brian Kafe in text line is open at six 190 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: four six eighty six. Yeah, exactly that, and anything and 191 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 2: and Lavo, like I said, will he'll play it both ways. 192 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: But somebody said, Okay, I understand your rant again, but 193 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 2: is it okay for me to be as sick of 194 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 2: the rant as I am what Twins ownership is doing? 195 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 2: And I said, yes, that's the irony here, though, I 196 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: would argue because if you want to say that the 197 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: anti pole Ad rants are getting old, I would say 198 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 2: they're exactly as old as the rants continually offered ripping 199 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 2: Twins fans for ripping the pole Ads. 200 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: That's predictable too, that's obvious too. 201 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 2: So I will cease and desist if they will cease 202 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 2: and desist. But I don't think that's going to happen. 203 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 2: I think that's very unlikely. This all this stuff is 204 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 2: all getting repeated over and over again, but there's nothing 205 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 2: original anymore. 206 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 3: I don't think about. 207 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they're Twins fans again, not happy, blaming pole 208 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 2: Ad for the power failure, blaming pole Ad for Iran, 209 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: blaming the pole Ads for everything, that is that not 210 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: also rather predictable. It's true, but so is the fact 211 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: that this organization has been run into the ground by 212 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: this family, maybe more so now than it ever has been. 213 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: And if there's a rebirth, we'll give them credit for it. 214 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 2: Believe me, it'll happen. I hope for the fans they 215 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 2: get it. 216 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 3: I do too. I do too because it is still 217 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 3: major League Baseball. 218 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 4: So I feel worse for as we talk about it 219 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 4: on enough said, the people that still go today, because 220 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 4: it's baseball, it's the Twins, it's habit, it's what they've 221 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 4: always done. Maybe you've done it with different generations, and 222 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 4: they're getting very little payoff just in general from their club. 223 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this. 224 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 2: If you're a person who under duress bought a seat 225 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 2: or another family member wanted to go, and so you said, 226 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 2: all right, I'll go with you because you want to go, 227 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: and you get worried about the power failure and you 228 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 2: start thinking, oh man, we may have a way out 229 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 2: of this. 230 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 3: There may be no gate. 231 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 2: Are you happy or devastated that apparently the power has 232 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 2: been restored and there will be baseball? 233 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. 234 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 4: I think it depends because some people have got to 235 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 4: take work of it. Yeah, I got to get accommodations. 236 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 3: Some people would be relieved. I didn't really want to go. 237 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 3: I would have either a day like this, a day 238 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 3: like this. It's what are we at? 239 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 2: Like? 240 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 3: Upper thirties? Current no? Thirty one? Yeah? Is that the 241 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: current temperature? Let me pull up the National Weather Service 242 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 3: thirty nine. Oh, then this on our my screen. 243 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: This must be uh it says currently thirty one, low 244 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 2: twenty one, high of thirty seven. Well, whatever the case 245 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 2: may be, this is not baseball weather. We know this 246 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 2: is this can happen in Minnesota when you start this early, unfortunately. 247 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 2: But you know, we were reminded by Gleaman, you can't 248 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: really call it because we don't have the buffer day. 249 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 2: You know, usually you have a game scheduled and then 250 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 2: you have an off day after in case the first 251 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: day the weather is awful, but we don't have that 252 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 2: in this situation. We've got Friday, Saturday, Sunday games, correct, 253 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: we do, and that goes right into Monday. 254 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: Who are we playing? I don't even know. Tampa Bay, 255 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay. 256 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 4: I like how I'm I'm on twins dot com right 257 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 4: now whatever their website is, they've got the schedule, and 258 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 4: then they've obviously got today there's three ten, and then 259 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 4: underneath it says delayed start colon power. 260 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, has that ever been said before? That's pretty funny. 261 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 3: Delayed start colon power. You like that, That's just funny. Yeah, 262 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 3: it's just. 263 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: Like, I don't think it's pres it's kind of happened 264 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: before in Major League base but I'm sure. 265 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 4: I'm sure it has. But you like the way they 266 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 4: put it. It's just funny that that's that's the correct reason. Yeah, 267 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 4: And apparently all up and down the nor Loop right now, 268 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 4: there's some power outages that are working. 269 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: On and six one two guy. Here here's an example. 270 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 2: This bit has been run into the ground. I'll say, 271 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 2: respectfully to six one two guy, this isn't a bit. 272 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 2: The irony of it is the only reason, if you 273 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 2: want to call it a bit, that it exists is 274 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 2: how tiresome the twins approach has become. That's what's been 275 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: run into the ground. And if you make the mistake 276 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: of being bothered by the reaction to it being repeated 277 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: too often and run into the ground, you're letting the 278 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 2: pole ads win. That's the point, that's who you should 279 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: be bored with running something into the ground. This is 280 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 2: just we're reacting in real time because that's the landscape. 281 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 2: We didn't make it happen, we didn't ask it to happen, 282 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 2: we didn't beg. 283 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 3: It to happen. But there it is. That's pretty much 284 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 3: the way I think you should look at it. There. 285 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 2: Apparently, the two dollars beer signs are everywhere, according to Gleam. 286 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: And I saw he set out a tweet earlier. 287 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 4: Yes, and I just saw a table full of two 288 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 4: dollars beers on Fox nine. Here I'm watching the pregame 289 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 4: to the pregame to the pregame show. People are taking 290 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 4: advantage of that. But I don't want to be the 291 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 4: puritan here. I don't want to be, you know, the 292 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 4: school marm. I don't want to be the haul monitor. 293 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 4: But I worry about that too. 294 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: I mean, isn't that going to encourage people in bibing 295 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 2: more than they should? 296 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: Maybe today, I wouldn't worry about it the rest of 297 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 4: the time. No, today's a different day. 298 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: Are you talking about two dollars beers? Any day? People 299 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 3: are gonna they're gonna go crazy over them. 300 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 2: Especially if they think there's nothing else to see. 301 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: Well, there might be that. 302 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 4: I just don't know how many people are going to 303 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 4: be going on for that day to day basis. Okay, well, 304 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 4: but especially here early. 305 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, the well, I look, I grew up on bad 306 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 2: Cubs teams and opening day Wrigley Field. They could have 307 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: thirty five thousand people and the next day there I'm 308 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 2: being serious, there could be twenty three hundred. Yeah, especially 309 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 2: if it was a day like this, and that could 310 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 2: also help. In Chicago in April, you had your own 311 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 2: you know, you could out similarly, you could have pretty 312 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: much your own section twenty three hundred. 313 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 3: Now here's our first. I didn't see this one coming. 314 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 3: A lot of power. 315 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 2: Jokes obviously, right, Yeah, we've risen above some of them, 316 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: but not. 317 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 3: All of them, and we will continue to not this 318 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 3: one I didn't see coming. Twins lacking power. 319 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: You mean Joe Maher is back, first ballot Hall of Famer. 320 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: That's pretty good. That's pretty good right there. 321 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 2: Man, But I think it's actually well played. I wasn't 322 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: prepared for that one, were you. No, And we probably 323 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: should have been. But maybe the first ballot Hall of 324 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 2: Famer thing, maybe we've been bought off by that. 325 00:15:44,920 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 3: You might be right. Six one two, guy rights. 326 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: I'm going to one game this year, and it is 327 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: only because my kid is singing the seventh inning stretch song. 328 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: Beyond that, there's no reason for me to go to 329 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 2: a game. It could be as Big Break or hers 330 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 2: seventh inning stretch song. That'll be exciting. It could be massive, 331 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 2: is what it could be. And what day did you 332 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: tell me you're throwing out the first pitch? 333 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: Not me? 334 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 4: Oh, I'm not throwing I thought that was you. No, 335 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 4: we were talking with Fallin about it. 336 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: She apparently has thrown out the first pitch one hundred times. 337 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 4: She's basically Pablo Lopez very close, except her arm is intact, 338 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 4: held together intact at the moment.

I mean, I. 345 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 2: Assume we should catch up on his first season at Xavier, 346 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 2: which I don't think was everything he hoped it was 347 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 2: going to be, but I'm actually more interested in a 348 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: scouting report. You know just what he thinks sizing up 349 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 2: the final four men's side women's side. 350 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 3: By the way, the Semis are tonight, right. 351 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: They are right here on the fan after Wolves, and 352 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: I am fascinated with those. 353 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 3: I mean, you want to talk about heavyweight. 354 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: It's too top heavy, one could say on the women's 355 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: side right now, right, but those are four heavyweight teams. 356 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 2: Are you sticking with your UCLA pick? Are you wavering 357 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 2: at all? I mean it's fifty five forty. The UCLA 358 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: plays Texas. They played Texas in the Lake Game. In 359 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 2: the Lake Game and the early is South Carolina against Yukon, 360 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 2: the two pre eminent programs of the last decade. So 361 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 2: you got in both those games. I have Yukon, You 362 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 2: have Yukon. I have used CLA getting revenge on Texas. 363 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: Their only lost this year was Texas in Vegas early 364 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 2: in the season. Yeah, I have UCLA winning that game, 365 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 2: even though technically they're not favored. I learned today and 366 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 2: then they're not favored. That's I saw that. Yeah, Texas 367 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 2: is fair like by one, yeah, or one and a 368 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 2: half or this is what I've got here, yeah, And 369 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 2: what's the spread on South Carolina Yukon? 370 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 3: Can I get six and a half? Six and a half. 371 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: This is not supposed to be a classically dominant South 372 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: Carolina team, right, She's had better teams. 373 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 3: It's obviously still a good team. That's the funny things. 374 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 4: They're thirty five and three in every tournament game by 375 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,479 Speaker 4: double digits, and they're viewed as Q club yeah by 376 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 4: South Carolina standards, which is amazing. With local angle Tessa 377 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 4: Johnson same Michaelauberville point is one of their best players. 378 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 3: Richard Patino on the men's side of it. 379 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 2: Uh. Those semi final games, of course, are on Saturday, 380 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 2: with the National Championship on Monday. 381 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 4: I wonder if I don't know, I have no idea 382 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 4: because I haven't talked to him about this, what his 383 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 4: opinion like, what he thinks about when Danny Hurley's losing 384 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 4: his mind becaus he coached against you kind of obviously 385 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 4: this year. Good point, and I'm sure knows the Hurley's 386 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 4: pretty well and his dad's in the same league. Now, 387 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 4: I'd love to hear his thoughts on Danny. I'm sure 388 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 4: he think he's amazing. 389 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 2: Stuck because I'm guessing he thinks he's a maniac. 390 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 3: But then he's. 391 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 2: Gonna he thinks this stuff through a lot, so I'm 392 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 2: wondering and I'm anticipating. In his mind he goes, well, 393 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 2: how far do I want to go in sort of 394 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: questioning the behavior given. I'm mean, nice career, but he's 395 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley borderline. 396 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 3: Legend at this point as a coach, it's undeniable. It 397 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 3: is right. 398 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 2: So that's always the thing that can well, not always, 399 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 2: that's the thing that can sometimes get in the way. 400 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 3: But he's got a good way, especially with his dad. 401 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 2: He does of complimenting and savage proper homage. But also 402 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 2: that's why he would be a very good I've told 403 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 2: him this a million times. He's bored with it, a 404 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 2: very good radio talk show host. He would be an 405 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 2: outstanding host of a program because he has mastered already 406 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 2: that art. He wouldn't have to worry about listening to 407 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 2: parents who are bitter and nil money and all that none. 408 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 2: Event well, he still has time to get to that 409 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 2: later if it comes to it. In addition, four thirty, 410 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 2: because somebody has asked, any chance we get a quick 411 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 2: doctor Dan's inbox today The answer is yes, that is 412 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 2: scheduled for for thirty this afternoon, so could use your letters. 413 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 3: There's time this, I. 414 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: Mean, and honestly this there are days when it writes itself, 415 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 2: one would think, So try to be clever with it. 416 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 2: Try not to go too obvious regarding the power failure. Oh, 417 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 2: go ahead, but if you have to go obvious, go 418 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 2: that way too. JG at cafe dot com.

He has no update on Luca. 444 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 4: Is that ominous in of itself? 445 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 3: I doubt it.

Now, it should be 455 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 3: the last thing on the list, right, But that's what 456 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 3: everybody's concerned about. He missed the game last night. 457 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 4: What's the first thing everybody tweeted, he's ineligible for Post 458 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 4: Sauson Awards. 459 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 2: Lucas same, He's got to play.

Now, what we don't know is whether 474 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 2: this is a more serious pull because hammies can be 475 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 2: very problematic. We've we learned that from didn't Cat miss 476 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 2: like four years with a hammy or no. 477 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: That was a calf.

You've got to take 529 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: like one or two bites and then toss the rest 530 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 1: of it in the trash.

So uh, that was a long day 541 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: because I did that in the around midday. Then I 542 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: went over to just feel them for the Saint Home opener, 543 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 1: which ended up being in nineteen to three, edging to 544 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: the Worcester warsaxl in which Worcester scored eight in the 545 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: first route inning.

Then led to a huge roar of 561 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: approval by the audience. Because of the power outage, all 562 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: the scanners and devices around the stadium weren't work and 563 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: people could not enter their stadium have ticked can or 564 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: whatever point of sale was out of order, so you 565 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: couldn't buy anything a concessions, so you couldn't really get 566 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: involved in those two dollars. They just put it on 567 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: the jumbo tron a few minutes ago. Due to the 568 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: downtown Minneapolis power outage. We are extending the two dollars 569 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: beer in happy hour sex through the end of the 570 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: second end. That was met with approuse and cheers the crowd. 571 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: So that's a little nod for people who had flying 572 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: wait for this the power to come back on so 573 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: they can enter the stadium and spend their money. 574 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 2: Do we are we projecting the crowd size today? 575 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 3: What do we expect? Do we know. 576 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: They're hoping for thirty thousand. I'm not sure if they're 577 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: going to get there. You know, I'm not sitting in 578 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: the presslocks right now. I'm in the workroom, so I 579 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: can't see what's going on in terms of entry, because, 580 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: as I pointed out, people are standing outside for a while. 581 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: Now they're all trying to get into the stadium. So 582 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: I don't know how how it's feeling up. But there 583 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: were people sitting in like the final the last rolls 584 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: of the of the second deck in the outfield. So 585 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: there are people. There are gonna be some people there. 586 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what They're gonna be completely full. No, 587 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some people there. 588 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think whatever chance they might have had of 589 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 2: that goes away with just the conditions. I would be 590 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 2: surprised if they do, unless they just start waving people 591 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 2: in because it's it's pretty miserable. 592 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 3: Right now, what do we say. 593 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 2: It was thirty seven thirty eight degrees nine according to 594 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 2: National Weather Service, and I'm assuming it's not gonna it's 595 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 2: not gonna be rising temperatures the rest of the afternoon 596 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 2: into the early evening. You're now starting an hour later, 597 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 2: right then you originally intended it's miserable. It's just it's bad. 598 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 2: That has nothing to do with the state of the 599 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 2: ownership of the team. It's just they're not real good 600 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,479 Speaker 2: baseball conditions. And look, those of us who've grown up 601 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: with baseball in the Midwest, this is not new, uh 602 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 2: this time of year, but it's not fun. 603 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 3: It really isn't. 604 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 2: The hardcorese hang, I'm assuming tomorrow though, although I haven't 605 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 2: seen the forecast for tomorrow, Tomorrow is supposed to be 606 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 2: in the forties or a little bit better. 607 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 3: Because if it is. 608 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: Thirty nine and rain and snow, so tomorrow there could 609 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 2: actually live There might be like eighty people tomorrow. Correct, yep, 610 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 2: they could. 611 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: I think they could bang in the game tomorrow, be honest, 612 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: because that's that high it's going to be in the 613 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: I can't remember the time the game is, but it's 614 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: could get colder during the game here.

Pictures he's got so 696 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: much experience having, played you, know twenty one years FOR 697 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: i think eleven different, teams And LaTroy was, ready you, 698 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 1: know you, know he felt like he can make a 699 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: difference in uniform talking to guys he's helped out. Before 700 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 1: it's not a special contributor to the baseball operations, department 701 00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: which you know was kind of just to open end 702 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: it role that allowed him, to you, know sit in 703 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: the front office meetings a little, bit or go work 704 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: with minor. Leaguers but you, know he was ready to 705 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,439 Speaker 1: see if he can make an impact as a coach. 706 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: Here so so far it's so. GOOD i think it's 707 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 1: a good balance to him And Pete. Mackie mackie's kind 708 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: of like the technical guy with mechanics and That latroy's done, 709 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: it you, know as he said in The, calm he's 710 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: read it from the book Of gune did, it and 711 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 1: he can relay his experiences to some of those guys 712 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: in the bullpen and the picture staff in. 713 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 3: General, well it. 714 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 2: Sounds, like, well the last time we Had hawkins, ON 715 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:39,760 Speaker 2: i think we talked a little bit about communicating with younger, 716 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 2: players right that are from another basically another. Generation and 717 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 2: my recollection is he, said you know you can't he, 718 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 2: SAID i might have my, opinions but he, said you 719 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 2: can't always do the back in my day. 720 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 3: Thing you have to find ways to. 721 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 2: Connect you maybe bugged that it's harder to connect or 722 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 2: or you got to play, knight sir or, whatever but 723 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 2: that to a certain, extent you have to find whatever 724 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 2: the lever, is and you have to concede whatever you 725 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 2: have to concede to get that communication. Going otherwise you're 726 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 2: really not doing your. Job you can't just squawk about 727 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: how kind of the players are softer now or you 728 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 2: can't see anything to, them WHICH i thought was a 729 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 2: pretty astute observation on his. 730 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:23,240 Speaker 1: Part, yeah and IT'S i think it's interesting That baltia 731 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: and his Buddy Eddie gardonald have taken a shot now 732 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: at being the bluepen. COACH i Think latroy's a little 733 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: more open to using statistics to kind of back up 734 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: some of these, things Where eddie just wants to rely personal, 735 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: experience you.
