I hope you're doing okay. 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:30.080 You do? 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:32.760 Did you do? Rogan and Rodney earlier at him for 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:33.760 like forty five minutes. 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.040 No, I was here on the board, and I don't 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:39.800 know if they knew I was here on the board, 0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:41.160 so they didn't utilize. 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:43.040 Me, right, gotcha? 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:45.600 Yeah, But he sat there for Rogan and Rodney for 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:48.359 three hours, which is like being an editor in an 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:51.200 edit bay, where your face turns, you know, to like 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.520 an old man, you know, like when you chose poorly 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:58.600 in the Last Crusade, you get old right away, and 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:00.640 then your body turns into a bunch of bones and 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.560 slams against the wall. I thought your brain just turned 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:04.120 into suit. 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.639 No, No, that's the that's the melting non see. 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:11.040 Then that's just when Fred when he's with a co host. 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.560 That's ah, that's yeah, I got you. That's one half 0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:14.960 of the show. 0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:17.760 Yeah, it is time though, now, Matt, I think you 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.200 mentioned this. It was you, or maybe it was I 0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:22.560 think it was you, But it is time for the 0:03:22.560 --> 0:03:23.160 word of the day. 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.600 I mean his words the word of the day. 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:29.480 They just won't have it anymore, Matt. 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:34.320 They're just they're too many tortillas flying and it's become 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:37.840 a huge problem. They used to throw tortillas around in Lubbock, 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:41.440 Texas and Texas Tech games when somebody scored a touchdown, 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:44.320 could be you could be the opponent, but the tortillas 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:49.600 would fly. And now the Big Twelve and Brett your mark, 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:54.240 the Big Twelve commissioner, they are trying hard to crack 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:58.880 down on the tortillas flying. They are fining, they are 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.040 giving fifteen yard flags. What is it, fifty thousand dollars 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:07.440 per tortilla, fifty k if the tortillas fly. The tortillas 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:10.720 did not fly at Arizona State, even though Texas Tech 0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:14.360 lost their first Big twelve game, first game of the 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:17.880 year actually, but their first conference game they lost. They 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:20.880 have Oklahoma State coming up at home and they're going 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.919 to beat Oklahoma State even if the tortillas fly. But 0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:28.200 Kirby hoe Cut, Texas Tech athletic director and now the 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:33.680 overseer of the highest payroll in the nil college football world, 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:36.560 Texas Tech got some big money A and M like money, 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:38.760 and they have a really good looking team this year, 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:42.160 and up until last Saturday, they'd won every game by 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:44.200 a big margin. I mean, they even beat the crap 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.560 out of Houston, who's doing a great job into Big 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:51.600 twelve this year. But here's our guy, Kirby hoe Cut, 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.600 pleading with the people of Lubbock. 0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:56.480 No more tortillas. 0:04:56.720 --> 0:04:59.719 The stakes are too high and we need to help 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:04.880 not risk penalizing our team again for throwing tortillas. Simply 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:09.919 let's not do it. The situation is on me. I 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:13.560 leaned into this of throwing tortillas at the beginning of 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:18.560 the football season. Now I must ask everyone to stop myself, 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:20.200 ask our staff to enforce. 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:20.839 It on game days. 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:24.480 I close and we'll turn it over to coach maguire, 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:28.080 asking our students and our fans to continue to make 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:33.080 Jones at and T Stadium the best environment in college football. 0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:35.520 And I don't know how they will do it, but 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.719 I am confident that our fans and our students are 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:40.680 about to make the Jones even louder than it's ever 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:41.240 been before. 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:44.400 Oh he ended it with a compliment, which is great. 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.320 How much do you think that the students are going 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:50.560 to listen? 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:50.480 List? 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:54.039 I didn't come to Texas toime because of the exceptional 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:54.960 physics program. 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:59.000 I came here to do two things smoke weed ands 0:05:59.080 --> 0:05:59.880 and we're out of weed. 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:04.919 I understanding that I did. I'm responsible for this. I 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:07.039 told you all to do it, but I was wrong. 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:11.360 Dinky hole cut. It's my fault. 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:13.919 I apologize. 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:16.040 I leaned into it. 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:20.279 The steaks are too high. We need we need to help. Simply, 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:21.680 let's not do it. 0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:24.200 Let's throw on totius. 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:30.640 Dude, it's not that bad to get hit with a tortilla. 0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:32.920 Unless you're doing that slap test when they're wet. 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.440 Well, that's all that get them all wet. How do 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.400 you get it out? You know you can't get it out. 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:43.839 Please, everybody stop throwing totius. 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:45.800 Yeah, they do this cool thing down in Lubbock where 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:46.960 they score tests and they throw. 0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.680 It's bad. You can't do it. 0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:52.840 It is now preventing our team from winning football. 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.120 Steaks are too damn high. 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:57.640 The steaks are too high, and we need to help, 0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.720 not risk penalizing our team again. For hey, thank you, 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:02.840 simply not do it. 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:04.880 I believe you are incorrect. It is not the mistake. 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:06.200 It is the periods. 0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:15.239 Mister. I believe that you are wrong. Here's my number 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:17.360 number of the day. 0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:21.200 Look, so one guy has one tough piece of milanaise misteak. 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:22.760 Now you can't stop talking. 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.520 Uh number is three, three and one weekend. I'll take 0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:32.680 it ten and eleven. On the season, Money Bucket said 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:34.840 that we were seven and ten going into week seven, 0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:37.640 had a three and oh record going into the the 0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:41.400 late window there. Unfortunately the commanders could not hold up 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.560 and give me my first bill in zero week. So 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:48.720 I am going to go with the rock Fight. We're 0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:52.000 broadcasting right here tonight seven pm as the Lions and 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:54.119 Bucks are already underway, So I can't pick that one. 0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:58.679 Two weeks to prepare for Jamico Ryans and that Texans defense. 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.720 Sam Darnold a monster season former Petros and Money guest 0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:05.520 friend of the show. Some wondered when it happened, why 0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:08.920 move on from Gino for a one year wonder like 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.680 Sam Donald, But he and Jackson Smith and Jigba have 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:16.560 been made sweet music up in Seattle this season. Donald 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:20.560 won sixteen, got Pete Carroll fired in Seattle, and now 0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:22.560 they brought him down to the Riders to get him 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:26.360 fired again. Tom Brady does not like it very much. 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:31.880 Smith fifteen yards per game. They however, have not seen 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:35.360 a defense like this yet. They did play Pittsburgh, they 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:38.360 were not great when they faced him. In week two. 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:38.599 T J. 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:40.920 Watts still rounded into form forty nine ers week one 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.680 when they were healthy, did a number on Donald and Seattle. 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.480 The Texans defense is better, way better than that. You 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.160 can put Derek Stingley, arguably the best cover corner in 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.960 the league on JSN and maybe wipe him out. Seattle 0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:54.400 running game is not great three point seven per carry. 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:56.920 That's twenty ninth in the league. And again, this Texans 0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:01.440 defense allowing twelve point per game. So why are they 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:05.199 two and three? Well because their offense sucks. Seattle's defense 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:10.200 not far behind nineteen points per game. Last three they 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:13.400 have averaged five sacks per game, and the Texans offensive 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.040 line is one of, if not the worst, in football. 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:21.040 So it has not been kind to me. Just taking 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:24.160 a team and betting the spread has been the way 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:26.480 that we've been successful. A number of those losses are 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:30.240 because we've taken under overs, but don't like either of 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:32.480 these offenses against these defenses. So we are going to 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:37.600 take the under under forty one, and we're envisioning a 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:39.920 thirteen to ten style game that you'll hear on the 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:40.440 radio here. 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:41.640 Why are you so pissy? 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:42.040 Leon? 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:45.400 Why are you so pissy? I'm I'm just answering your guy. 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:47.600 You are I ask you a question? 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:50.120 So pissy about the under mat? Very good one? 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:52.880 What does it matter? You know you want scoring on 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.760 the radio? Fifty points, seven hundred points? 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:58.600 Nobody likes. It's like playing It's like playing that don't 0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:01.400 pass line at the craps table. Who wants a thirteen 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:03.679 to ten game? Why are you projecting that? I want 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.520 to drive home, sit in traffic, listen to Sam Darnold, 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:11.520 do some things, and instead we're projecting like twenty three 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:13.839 total points and trying to get back to five hundred 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:14.720 going into the weekend. 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.560 Well, good luck to you, Matt. Oh by the way, 0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:21.120 by the bye, by the bye. I do remember this. 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:26.920 My brother Tosso played with the nineteen ninety four USC 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:31.040 team against Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl when they 0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:33.160 played it in the Cotton Bowl before you know At 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:36.160 and T Stadium was built, right and the Tortillas flew 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:38.199 in Dallas. I remember him coming home to the Cotton 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:41.080 Bowl and talking about how the Tortillas flew in Dallas 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:45.199 and Zack Johnson, the Miami linebacker, was on that Texas 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:48.520 Tech team and Keishawn Johnson was out there running around, 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.560 so the tortillas were fine there. No one was upset then. 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:55.440 But now it's like they sound like, you know, like 0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:57.240 like you're like you're shooting a gun in the. 0:10:57.200 --> 0:11:04.720 Sky, you know. 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.480 The other the other thing I said, other than this, 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.480 my other favorite sound so far from this college football 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:15.040 season is Barry Alvarez telling the Wisconsin people that don't 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:18.440 boo at Camp Randall go booing a bar. And it's like, 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.200 let's say I was at like a bar we really 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:25.240 had fun at Like September's right in the Inland Empire. 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:28.840 I'm not why would I boo the bar. I'm having 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:31.920 a great time here. They got fried pickles, I'm drinking. 0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:35.200 I don't want to I'm not booing these the hard 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:40.200 working waiters and waitresses of September. Why would I boo 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:43.640 in a bar like booing at the game to show 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.520 that you're dissatisfied with the product you're paying for, that 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:51.120 is really the only appropriate place to boo. Like Barry 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:54.520 Alvarez is totally backwards on the boo and a bar. 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:58.520 Booing at a bar is inappropriate, right, Like you can 0:11:58.559 --> 0:11:59.720 give a couple of claps. 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.079 When your team scores or something. I mean, you don't 0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:02.160 have to act like you did it. 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:05.240 But but no, if you're at a bar, you're just 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:06.040 gonna drop an F. 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.880 Bomb, yeah or yeah, but you're not gonna sit there. 0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:11.280 And get him out of here. 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:11.800 Boh. 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.400 You know that's distracted to the other patrons. And I 0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:20.400 think booing at a bar is completely inappropriate as opposed 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:22.880 to you know, but just booing at the game, which 0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:24.880 is where people boobe. 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:29.959 So you're wrong, Barry Alvarez. You are wrong. 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:36.839 I respect you, I respect the zone running, but you're wrong. 0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:39.240 You're wrong to say they can't boo in a bar. 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:42.160 That's my talk. 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:46.360 All right, it is time for the song of the day. 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:47.600 Hold on, let me pull it up. 0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:50.160 I'm not good at this, like Matt, I'm not all 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:51.640 fast with my fingers. 0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:55.319 This is the song of the day. 0:12:57.520 --> 0:12:58.319 You know, Matt. 0:12:58.160 --> 0:12:59.000 Requested this one. 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:00.520 Oh I love it. 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:04.040 Yellow bike cold plays the Chargers or in the yellow 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:08.320 out or the yellow Rush jerseys. The mustard didn't go 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:11.840 so well. Somehow, Justin Herbert still threw a pick to 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:14.720 the team wearing white in the back of the end zone. 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:17.319 Chargers lost and it's he can't say that he didn't 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:18.319 see his guys. 0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:21.000 They're right there. 0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:24.000 I heard it was tough on the broadcasters. 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.360 Too, nokod defense.

Dodger sitting around for a full 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.240 week before they are back in action. Pee, but that 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:54.160 doesn't mean the people do want to keep talking and 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:54.800 hearing about it. 0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:56.840 Oh, we got to pump it off. We wanted him. 0:14:57.040 --> 0:14:58.960 We saw him out at Dodger Stadium, but he was 0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:06.720 on the radio. Sweet Louis Vauton sweatsuit vloor looking good 0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:15.920 looking ready velvet was valure. Jim Bonen, MLB general Manager, mastermind. 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.200 You hear him on the MLB Network radio. We assume 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:20.960 that's what he was doing. You read him on the Athletic. 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:25.840 He's on CBS Sports Network at Jim Bonen gm on 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:29.000 X been on the show many times. 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:31.120 We always appreciate his insight. 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:34.040 It's a lot to discuss as he's had a front 0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:37.240 row seat to the Dodger domination in these playoffs. 0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:38.480 So we're gonna pump it up. 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:44.080 Man who had Cincinnati bubbling the Ohio River turned the Red. 0:15:46.520 --> 0:15:51.840 Jim Boden on the Southern California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Hotline, 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:53.480 what's cracking, Jim? 0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:53.920 How are you? 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:58.640 It's been a great postseason so far, and this Dodger team. 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.000 Nothing gets more excited, you know, to be there at 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:05.800 Dodger Stadium when I got to witness the greatest performance 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:09.320 of any athlete in the history of sports, To watch 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:13.960 show Shoey o'tani punch out ten, throw a two hitter 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:16.400 through six and then sit there and at three home 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:21.240 runs like even Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Lebron, James Tom 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:23.840 Brady have all the great things all these people have 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:27.400 done in sports. No one has had a better game 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:29.320 than he had on Friday. And to be able to 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:31.840 be there and witness it and see it with all 0:16:31.840 --> 0:16:34.800 the Dodger fans, that's a memory I promise you I'll 0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:36.800 never forget. It was absolutely amazing. 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.680 Oh well, I mean, I wanted to ask you about it, 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:42.280 and that's a great answer because it just feels like 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:44.600 and you've done this for a living for many years, 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:49.080 identifying talent, and you have great relationships throughout the generations 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:53.000 in baseball. But we seem to lack perspective on what 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:57.600 Otani's doing because it's just not done. I mean, is 0:16:57.640 --> 0:16:59.720 that I don't know, what do you think about? That 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:00.880 makes it kind of hard. 0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:05.120 Well, yeah, because I believe he's artificial intelligence. I don't 0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:08.440 think he's a human being. Just being around him, the size, 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:11.520 the way he walks, how much Funny has when he's 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:14.080 the ching, and then he becomes a heavyweight fighter when 0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:16.120 he goes to the mound. I mean, I just kind 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:17.960 of feel like he was programmed. I think, you know, 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:20.639 I won't be surprised today we find out and someone says, 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:23.639 we're just kidding. He was artificial intelligence the whole time. 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:26.800 I mean, look all kidding aside, we've never seen anything 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:29.200 like this, Like, you know, it's funny. When he was 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:32.200 coming over, everyone talked about he's the babe Ruth from 0:17:32.280 --> 0:17:35.320 Japan coming over, and yeah, it was cool. He got 0:17:35.320 --> 0:17:38.239 to do both ways, but not at this level, Like 0:17:38.320 --> 0:17:41.680 nobody saw this. There's never been a human being Nick 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:44.119 could do this. And he goes on the mound and 0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:48.760 he's a true ace, punched out ten and friggin pitching 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:51.440 the Dodgers for the World Series and oh, by the way, 0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:53.560 here's three home runs too. And oh, by the way, 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:57.080 he's gonna win the Nation League MVP again, Like, look, 0:17:57.119 --> 0:17:58.680 it's an honor to prove it's to cover him because 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.280 he's such a cool guy too. I saw the postgame 0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:03.680 interview when he says, what do you want to say 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:05.560 back to Japan? And he said, I want to say 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:08.160 to everyone in Japan and the USA, let's all get 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:12.359 a glass of saki and toast, Like, let's bring everybody together. 0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.320 We'll have some saki and toast. This it was phenomenal. 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.080 But I'll tell you what even more than that, to 0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:21.760 watch the Dodgers in the Philly series and then this 0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:24.680 last series against the Brewers. You know, I asked Dave 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:27.320 Roberts on the field before Game four. I said, Dave, 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:30.359 you know, watching this team in the regular season, it 0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:32.159 was a ninety three win team. That's what it was. 0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:33.760 That's what the facts say, that's what it looks like. 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:35.520 But it looked like a mid nineties team, like a 0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:37.719 really good team that could win the World Series, a 0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:40.600 great team. But the team I've witnessed in the last 0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:43.399 two series is one hundred and twenty win team. Like 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:48.000 everything came together in October exactly the way Andrew Friedman 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:52.640 and Dave Roberts and Brandon Goldhins designed it. Like when 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.919 you get through the season, Blake, tell me, at eleven starts, 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:58.439 that's it. They didn't worry about it. You know, they 0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:00.520 only had one pitcher that made thirty starts, that was 0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:03.960 Yoshinoba Yamamoto. Because they've planned for October the whole year, 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:06.480 and when they have an injured picture ready to come back, 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:08.480 they just say, yeah, you wait, you just wait, we 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:10.719 got twelve pictures. Don't worry. We'll wait, We'll wait, We'll 0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:14.080 extra couple of weeks. We need you in October. You know, 0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:16.200 we don't really care about the regular season. We're gonna 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:18.440 get there anyway. We're so good, but we want to 0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:21.280 peak in October. Like that's a plan that they do 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:24.680 and it works, and it worked. And to watch those 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:27.760 four pitchers sweet Milwaukee, let me tell you this, if 0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:30.200 they were facing the twenty seven Yankees, the forty six 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:32.879 Red Sox, the ninety eight Yankees, the seventy five Reds, 0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:36.080 they would have swipped them to Okay, we have never 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:40.640 seen four starters dominate ever in the postseason the way 0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:45.000 they've dominated four consecutive games, and did Dave Roberts credit 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:46.720 it wasn't a quick cook on any of them. Yes, 0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:50.160 stay in the snell eate any He's no problem, only 0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:53.600 faced twenty four batters. Best postseason start we've seen since 0:19:53.600 --> 0:19:57.320 Holladay through the no hitter or maybe Linsenham's fourteen strikeout game. 0:19:57.400 --> 0:20:00.679 I mean, are you kidding me? Like it was? It was? 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:04.200 So if you're a Dodger fan, you should be giddy because, 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.320 as I asked Dave Roberts, is this the best Dodger 0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:09.119 team you have ever managed? He's been there ten years. Oh, yes, 0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:14.040 absolutely it is. I both agree with Dave Roberts. This 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:17.439 is one of the greatest teams. And I want everyone 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:20.080 to understand this is a different team in October than 0:20:20.119 --> 0:20:22.919 we saw in the regular season. This team is one 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.879 hundred and twenty win This team is special, and I 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:30.000 feel sorry tonight because whoever gets to celebrate, whether it's 0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:33.720 Toronto or Seattle, whoever gets to celebrate will then be 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.560 eliminated in five games in the next round. 0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:41.359
