Speaker 2: All right, let's go seven oh eight, seven hundred WLW

00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 2: Welcome in RNL Carrier Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevrolet

4
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 2: Avliance Havelister. How you doing, Thanks for making your way here.

5
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 2: We've got two hours to get it done tonight. I

6
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 2: can tell you upfront. Coming up at about fifteen minutes,

7
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: we're going to start some pretty in depth Kyle Schwerber

8
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 2: conversation and reaction on your part to what is transpired

9
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 2: over the last twenty four hours or so. And then

10
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: we'll have a fun topic we'll toss in in the

11
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 2: eight o'clock hour as well. But let's start first right here.

12
00:00:54,720 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: My first guest is from Middletown. No, he's not Kyle Schwarber.

13
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 2: He created something really cool though, years ago, the MLB

14
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 2: Ballpark Passport. Think of a book to officially stamp your

15
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 2: visit to a ballpark. Well, this idea, this product has

16
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 2: grown so big and has had such an impact on

17
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: baseball fans across the country that the Baseball Hall of

18
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 2: Fame has voted to induct the original first print of

19
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: the Major League Baseball Ballpark Passport to be put on

20
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 2: display in the museum. And I said, how cool is that?

21
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: Because I had this next guest on way back when

22
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: let's find out all about it. Welcome in, Tim Barks.

23
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: How are you, hey, Lan?

24
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 3: How you doing?

25
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 2: I am fantastic.

26
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 3: Let's do this.

27
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: Let's backtrack a little bit for those who may not

28
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: know of the idea, just kind of describe the passport,

29
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: what it looks like and how it works.

30
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 4: Well back in twenty ten, I had the idea, you

31
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 4: know of in the recording your memories and your visits

32
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 4: to the ballparks. And when I got back, you know,

33
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 4: I had the prototype made and and everything, and I

34
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 4: called up Phil Cassolini of the Reds and said, hey, Phil,

35
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 4: I got this pretty neat idea. I want to show

36
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,839
Speaker 4: you so what you think And he said, sure, Tim,

37
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 4: come on down to the ballpark. And so he loved it,

38
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 4: and he took it to Major League Baseball at the

39
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 4: winter meetings.

40
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 3: That was fifteen years ago. Wow.

41
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 4: And and he came back and called me and said, Tim,

42
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 4: come on down to the ballpark. We have a conference

43
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 4: call with MLB. They love your idea. And the rest

44
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 4: is history. And that year it was the Red Season Passport,

45
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 4: which if you recall I was on your show prior

46
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 4: to opening day discussing the first book, and I know.

47
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 3: Casey had one and he got one to use, and.

48
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 4: You know, we were all such short notice that we

49
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 4: didn't have a chance to design and make the MLB

50
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 4: Ballpark Passport Book, which was for visiting all thirty ballparks,

51
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 4: and so that's what we did, you know, the whole

52
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 4: summer and in winter was creating and developing that book

53
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 4: for release in twenty twelve. And I just want to

54
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 4: say real quick that without Phil Casilini, none of this

55
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 4: ever would have happened, because he took that to MLB

56
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 4: on his on the cord, had an offline meeting with

57
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 4: MLB and Phil just you know, it never the day

58
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 4: of light they've had it been for him.

59
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 3: I just want to tell him thanks, if he's listening.

60
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 2: And Tim, if I remember correctly, this all kind of

61
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 2: popped into your head because you you had kind of

62
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 2: a quest to visit. You wanted to visit all thirty

63
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 2: Major League parks to begin with.

64
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: Correct, Yes, I was already doing it. I was already

65
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 4: doing it. And uh I drove to uh the Arctic

66
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 4: Circle back in twenty ten and we'd already been to

67
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 4: a number of ballparks, and and of course, you know,

68
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 4: watching the Reds play as much as we could on

69
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 4: the road, and uh, you know when you drive to Alaska,

70
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 4: you know, yeah, a lot of time to think. And

71
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 4: I started thinking about growing up with the big Red

72
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 4: machine when I was, you know, thirteen years old in

73
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 4: the seventy five, and I said, you know, I've got

74
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 4: no memories at all, no ticket stubs, nothing, no anything

75
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 4: to remember all the visits that I had, you know,

76
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,239
Speaker 4: to the ballpark with my with my dad and brothers

77
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 4: and sisters and in church groups and youth groups and things,

78
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 4: and I had nothing. And I said, I want to

79
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 4: throw something out there. And I would get back to

80
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 4: the hotel and I'd do some search, you know, on

81
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 4: my phone online and couldn't find anything. And so it's

82
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 4: just amazing that you know, a guy from Middletown had

83
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 4: an idea. Yeah, and you know that I went with

84
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 4: and you know, I was the first one to come

85
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 4: up with this idea for baseball in pathboards and so tim.

86
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 2: If if someone has a passport, say they order the

87
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: passport from you kind of walks like when you walk

88
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 2: into a stadium, what happens or how is it used?

89
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: Explain it for someone who might not understand it.

90
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you have the book, and so inside the

91
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 4: book it lists all what we call them validation stations

92
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 4: at all the Major League ballparks.

93
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 3: And so what happens when fan comes.

94
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 4: In they look inside their book, they see where the

95
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 4: valuation stations are located inside the ballpark. There's multiple locations

96
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 4: at all thirty stadiums, and so like the red for example,

97
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 4: the Reds have I think seven or eight different stamping

98
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 4: locations listed and Dodger Stadium has like ten. So it

99
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 4: was grown from one, you know, from one stamping location

100
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 4: for ballpark to you know, seven, eight, nine, tens stamping locations.

101
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 3: It's kind of crazy.

102
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 4: And so fans will present their book and they'll ask

103
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 4: for the stamp, and they'll turn to their you know,

104
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 4: to to the team page in the book, and uh,

105
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 4: the staff will roll the date to the date that

106
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 4: you're there, and they'll hand you the stamp and you'll

107
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 4: ink it up, test it, then stamp your book and

108
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 4: it has the name of the ballpark, city, Stton, zip

109
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 4: code to the ballpark and then the date you were there.

110
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 4: And so once you stamp that it's ink the paper,

111
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 4: it's there forever.

112
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: Tell me the Hall of Fame news. Tell me how

113
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 2: you got the news, and tell me how exciting this is.

114
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 3: Yes, it was so unreal.

115
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 4: I've been thinking for a while because you know, next

116
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 4: year is the fifteenth year of the MLB ball Park

117
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 4: Passport Book. We released it at the All Star Game

118
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 4: in Kansas City in twenty twelve, and we only took

119
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 4: you know, we brought like something like, you know, one

120
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty one hundred and seventy five books, and

121
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 4: we got the joking on the way in that hey,

122
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 4: well what if we don't sell any books.

123
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: And never been done before? You know, no one had

124
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 3: ever done before. So there was no blueprint for it.

125
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: And I knew on.

126
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 4: The second day there at fantast we sold out of

127
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 4: our inventory and we took orders for another I think

128
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 4: it was three hundred and some orders for the next print,

129
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 4: and we told them up front that hey, it might

130
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 4: be three four five months before we have another rundowne

131
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 4: and they said, we don't care, we want the book.

132
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 3: And it was at that time that I knew.

133
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 4: That we had, you know, something special, and so I

134
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 4: have to thinking about the fifteenth year and coinciding with that.

135
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 3: And I said, you know, I said, I said.

136
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 4: I wonder if the Hall of Fame would be, you know,

137
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 4: interested in this book. And since it was the first

138
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 4: you know, I kept the first book off this off

139
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: the press and got the first stamp at Great American

140
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: Ballpark in it on April fifth of twenty twelve, and so,

141
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 4: you know, I thought, you know, this is this is

142
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 4: a part of baseball history, and you know, I'll contact

143
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 4: the Hall of Fame and see what they think. And

144
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 4: so I called and got ahold of a very nice lady,

145
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 4: Cassidy Lynt, who is the library director at the Hall

146
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 4: of Fame, and I told her I had the original

147
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 4: first print, first book, first stamp MLB Ballpark passport book,

148
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 4: and if the Hall of Fame would be interested in it.

149
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 4: And then so then she pertea to tell me she's

150
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 4: like Tim bat the Hall of Fame Committee Board on

151
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 4: Historical Artifacts.

152
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 3: It is scheduled to.

153
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 4: Have a meet on the I think it was the

154
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 4: first Wednesday in November. And she said, I'll take this

155
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 4: information about your books. She she knew about the book.

156
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 4: The Hall of Fame has sold it from the very

157
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 4: beginning they've been a part of it, and she said,

Speaker 2: they were left with about ten million to spend, and

311
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 2: yet they were willing to go above the budget to

312
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 2: offer Kyle Schwarber a five year, one hundred and fifty

313
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 2: million dollar deal. That's twenty five million a year. That

314
00:17:55,840 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 2: would have been over their budget. Now with Kyle Schwarp

315
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 2: were off the board. Nick Crawls indicated their payroll status

316
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 2: is status quo. So they found the money for the

317
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 2: hometown kid in an attempt to excite the fan base

318
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 2: and benefit from the attendance boost. But now they're not

319
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 2: willing to spend above the payroll to improve the team,

320
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 2: make it a winner and excite the fan base. I mean,

321
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 2: the shore Ber offer shows you they have money and

322
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 2: they can spend over the budget. They're choosing not to.

323
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: And how do you expect I guess, how do they

324
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 2: expect fans to take that? And I've wondered this consistently

325
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: throughout the offseason. If their twenty twenty five attendants was

326
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 2: their biggest since twenty fifteen, and they had the fifth

327
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 2: biggest jumping attendance in baseball from twenty twenty four to

328
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, and they aren't raising the payroll, then

329
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 2: when would they ever raise the payroll? I mean, think

330
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: about it. If they drew twenty six thousand plus largest

331
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 2: Reds attendance in a decade, fifth biggest jump in baseball

332
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,160
Speaker 2: from one year to the next, and yet their payroll

333
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 2: is remaining the same. When would it ever go above

334
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty million dollars. I don't I don't understand,

335
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 2: you know, Charlie Goldsmith wrote today for Charlie's Chalkboard there's

336
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 2: a massive gap between Plan A and Plan B for

337
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 2: the Reds of this offseason, and he wrote the difference

338
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 2: reflects a lot about the Reds. They found a way

339
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 2: to make Kyle Schorber a real offer of five years,

340
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five million. It wasn't enough. Now

341
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 2: it's back to building within. Somebody make that make sense.

342
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 2: I mean, if you if you doubt the seriousness of

343
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 2: the offer. As Charlie wrote, Schwerber and his wife visited

344
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 2: in person in late November with the Reds office and

345
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: with Terry Francona and with Bob Castelany, and the Reds

346
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 2: weren't told they were out of the race until yesterday morning.

347
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 2: And is Charlie Wright's the Reds were willing to spend

348
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 2: in this case, but Shorber would have been the exception.

349
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 2: And without that exception, the Reds have about five to

350
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 2: ten million to spend going forward. So how do you

351
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 2: make that work in the third offseason of needing That

352
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 2: Air quotes elusive bat and Nick Kral said, and I quote,

353
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 2: our ownership group puts everything back into the team every year.

354
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 2: They try to figure out how to break even every year.

355
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,239
Speaker 2: That's how we budget. We're trying to figure out how

356
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 2: to best utilize that budget for the major league club.

357
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 2: Well here's an idea. How about trying to figure out

358
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: how to build a winning team and instead of trying

359
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 2: to break even, understanding that maybe every now and then

360
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 2: you need to do more. Because the Reds and no

361
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 2: other team in Major League Baseball is ever going to

362
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 2: tell you how much revenue they have. It is won't.

363
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 2: It's the beauty of Major League Baseball teams. They don't

364
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: have to tell you, so they can say we put

365
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 2: everything back into it and just try to break even.

366
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,959
Speaker 2: And we're we're in a position of having to accept

367
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: that of teams around Major League Baseball. It will be

368
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 2: a headbutting point of conversations when we had to lock

369
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 2: out after twenty twenty six with the Major League Baseball

370
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,719
Speaker 2: players that were going to say, then show us the books.

371
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 2: If what you say is true, then show us the

372
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 2: books of your financials. And teams are not going to

373
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 2: do that. But if you can do it for Shoreber,

374
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 2: but shorebur doesn't happen. I take the pick the number,

375
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 2: twenty five million. What could you get for twenty five

376
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 2: million if Schwarber's out of the equation. Maybe it's a

377
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 2: bat in two relievers. Maybe it's a bat in three relievers.

378
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. I just can't. You

379
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 2: can't have an offer for Kyle Schwarber on the table

380
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 2: and then say, well, that didn't work out, worse status

381
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 2: quo one hundred and twenty million dollars. I get that.

382
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 2: That's what is so frustrating to me. Ken Rosenthal, the

383
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 2: athletic writing, unlike the Orioles, the Reds are not expected

384
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 2: to pursue other expensive free agents. There offered to Schwarber

385
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 2: was tied to their belief that his addition would help

386
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 2: drive ticket sales. Well, why can't it ever be by

387
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 2: up're reading the talent winning will result in more ticket sales.

388
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: In this case, it was just let's get the hometown

389
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 2: kid and ticket sales will go up. And now they're

390
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 2: not expected to pursue anybody else. Had one hundred and

391
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 2: fifty million to give Kyle Schwarber status quo going forward

392
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 2: for everything else and that's about ten million dollars to spend.

393
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 2: Incredibly frustrating. You know, I was running the numbers today,

394
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 2: just some simple math, and I would love to know

395
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 2: how much the Reds baked into of this. The Reds

396
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 2: baked into their offer, because my thinking is people I've

397
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 2: talked to it's not out of whack. Let's just say

398
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 2: you assume the addition of Kyle Schwarber, and I kind

399
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 2: of did this in the week leading up to this,

400
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 2: of if what type of financial commitment you'd be willing

401
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 2: to make if it meant getting Kyle Schorber. And my

402
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 2: angle was what would this mean for attendance specifically. Let's

403
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 2: just say, for argument, say Kyle Schorber came here and

404
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 2: the Reds attendance was boosted five thousand a game. That's

405
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 2: not unrealistic. It would have got him up to thirty

406
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,120
Speaker 2: one thousand a game. They did that in twenty thirteen.

407
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 2: So Schorber comes, excitement rains, attendance jumps five thousand per game. Well,

408
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 2: five thousand per game times eighty one dates is four

409
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 2: hundred and five thousand added fans at an average ticket

410
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 2: price of thirty dollars. That's twelve point one million dollars

411
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 2: twelve point one million dollars a year from the addition

412
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 2: of Kyle Schorber, maybe maybe more, And that doesn't even

413
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 2: include who's pointed out to me, well, don't forget what

414
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 2: it would have meant for parking and concessions and playoff

415
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 2: appearances and TV ratings and radio ratings and all that

416
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 2: comes with it. I wonder how much, if any, that

417
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 2: they baked into the offer of twenty five million a

418
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 2: year to Kyle Schuber. I mean, I would assume to

419
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 2: some extent they factored that in and thought along my lines,

420
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 2: me along their lines of all right, he would be

421
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 2: a boost to our attendants. And maybe it'll be tough

422
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 2: to see that us reaching that number on the surface,

423
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 2: but if we factor in he might mean another five, seven,

424
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 2: nine twelve million a year, then that makes it easier

425
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 2: for us to offer him five years at one hundred

426
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 2: and fifty million. I just know this. He's a Philly

427
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 2: and the Reds payroll is back to status quo at

428
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty million with ten million to spend,

429
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 2: and that is incredibly frustrating. Your calls Next to RNL

438
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 3: Oh?

439
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 5: Hi? So I wanted to ask two things. So in

440
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 5: Punarcion Strand, is he getting better? He was a great

441
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 5: hitter and then he broke his hand, got hit by

442
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 5: a ball, and he got hurt last year.

443
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have no reason to believe. I have no

444
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 2: reason to hold out hope that he would be a

445
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: factor on this team in twenty twenty six.

446
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 3: He's not coming back to get there.

447
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 2: You know, he'll believe me. No that No, I didn't

448
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 2: say that. He's just I would not count on him

449
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: being in their plans.

450
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 5: Anything really could anything else if somebody comes into spring training.

451
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 5: My old thing with the Reds is that they always

452
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 5: need to have their their lineups made up before spring

453
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 5: training comes. You know, if somebody comes in, they get

454
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 5: hot and stuff. Then they set them down the miners

455
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 5: and they coof you never out to get it. It's

456
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 5: like they're streaky.

457
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 3: You always your confidence. And I don't know.

458
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 5: I hope that somebody does get hot during spring training.

459
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 5: They let him, they decide, maybe they'll let him play start.

460
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 5: The other thing I was wondering is hope it is

461
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 5: maybe they can learn to play some small ball and

462
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 5: learn some fundamentals. I know they lost a lot of games,

463
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 5: lest I would hear the announcers complained at all, or

464
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 5: they threw it to the wrong.

465
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 2: Place, random, the wrong way, no question, there's no and

466
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,159
Speaker 2: thank you for the call. There's no question they had

467
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 2: some fundamental issues. I don't know that small ball is

468
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: the answer. The game's kind of gone away from small ball.

469
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,199
Speaker 2: There just aren't a whole lot of sacrifice bunch anymore

470
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 2: in the game because teams value their twenty seven ounce

471
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 2: and I don't like to give them up. But there

472
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 2: were times where fundamentally this team gave you a headache.

473
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 3: No question.

474
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 2: Columbus, we go, Hey Forrest, how.

475
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 6: Are you.

476
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 3: Lance?

477
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 7: Doing great?

478
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 3: How are you?

479
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 2: I'm well? What's on your mind?

480
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 3: Lance?

481
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 8: Your spot on with the Schwarber debacle? I almost think

482
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 8: the Reds didn't want to sign Schwarber. They wanted to

483
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 8: make an offer, try to make us flash the next thing.

484
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 8: I think he signs elsewhere. You pivot, you go out,

485
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 8: and you get the polar Bear. You have the same

486
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 8: effect bringing a star in for the younger players to

487
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 8: learn from, learn a great hitting approach. You move forward

488
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 8: then and pivot with a polar Bear.

489
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:18,120
Speaker 2: How exciting.

490
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 8: And we're not even using our revenue sharing money from

491
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 8: what it sounds like in the newspaper.

492
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 3: I'll listen to your.

493
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 8: Reaction, but I thought polar Bear, Pete Alonzo, it'd be

494
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 8: a great fit if we can't get Schward Forest.

495
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you for calling tonight and listening. I

496
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 2: just wish more of their view was about the boost

497
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 2: in attendance that would come from putting a winner on

498
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 2: the field, a ninety plus win team, and not as

499
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 2: much as get a hometown kid or do concerts or

500
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 2: do bobbleheads. I just wish the mindset would be man

501
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: that old saying you got to spend money to make money,

502
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: and maybe instead of keeping status quo from one year

503
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: to the next and keeping the same payroll despite the

504
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: salary's going up despite our fans supporting us more than

505
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 2: they have any year in Reds Baseball since twenty fifteen.

506
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 2: Maybe this is the year, maybe we take a little

507
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 2: bit of a leap of faith. I don't think anybody

508
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 2: expects the Reds to go to two hundred million dollars.

509
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 2: I think it is the driving reason for why so

510
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 2: many would love to see during this war that's coming

511
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: up between the two sides of salary floor put in

512
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 2: as much as a salary cap. All right, look, salary

513
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 2: cap fined. But any talk of a labor war that

514
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 2: doesn't get a salary floor and forces that anything that

515
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 2: doesn't force the Reds or pirates or teams to spend

516
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 2: more money to get up to a level is going

517
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 2: to have no impact on this game whatsoever. And I

518
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 2: just wish that that pursuit was driven by if we

519
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: put a winner on the field, we don't have to

520
00:29:54,040 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 2: worry about anything else. The fans will show up incredibly frustrating.

521
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 2: There was one man frustrated on this date nineteen eighty nine.

522
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 2: He uttered words that live still today. We'll get into

523
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 2: that and more in the eight o'clock hour Sports Talk

524
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: RNL Carrier. Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevalet seven hundred WLW.

525
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: The following takes place between eight pm and nine pm.

526
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 2: Ay, let's keep moving one hour to get it done.

527
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 2: Then let's see Wednesday night, Dan Carroll, and tonight nine

528
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 2: to midnight. Plenty of ground to cover between now and then. Man,

529
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 2: this Michigan story gets gets the more bizarre worse by

530
00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 2: the minute. Michigan coach ex Michigan coach now Sharon more

531
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 2: Cordiner reports detained by police and salign Michigan this evening

532
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 2: and turned over to police in Pittsfield Township for investigation

533
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 2: into potential charges. Again the Michigan coach fired with cause

534
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 2: earlier today university investigation revealing an improper relationship with a staffer,

535
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 2: and now turned over to police tonight. Final thought on

536
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: Kyle Schwarber, I wonder in his mind, at least it'd

537
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 2: be fair to wonder in his mind. All right, they've

538
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 2: offered me five years, one fifty What if I take this?

539
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 2: What if they don't raise their payroll? What if they

540
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 2: try to squeeze me in at twenty five million of

541
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: the one hundred and twenty million dollars payroll and have

542
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 2: to lop guys off to fit me in. What chance

543
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 2: is there we're going to win if I come there?

544
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 2: I think that would be a fair concern if you

545
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 2: were Kyle Schwarber. All right, it was this date, December tenth,

546
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty nine. That's something happened in this city that

547
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 2: we will never forget. Bengals Seahawks Riverfront Stadium snowing that day.

548
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 2: Fans were upset with the officiating, some calls had gone

549
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 2: against the Bengals. Fans started throwing snowballs onto the field,

550
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 2: to the point that a riled up, agitated Sam Wish

551
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 2: walked over. It would have been to Tom Kinder, the

552
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 2: PA voice of the Bengals, who did the PA on

553
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 2: the field, holding a microphone on a long cable cord

554
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 2: on the field, not upstairs in the in the booth.

555
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 2: On the field. Sam Wish walked over to him, took

556
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 2: the microphone and uttered this famous phrase, Well, the next person.

557
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 9: That sees anybody brought anything on this field, point them out,

558
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 9: rick you them out of here.

559
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 2: You don't let it. Clevelight, listen to that crown. A

560
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 2: quote never to be forgotten in the annals of sports history,

561
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: and this city. One of those quotes phrases, sayings that

562
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 2: will always live with great lore of that moment in

563
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 2: time when Sam uttered those words. I was digging around

564
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 2: archives today and I found I found the NBC call

565
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 2: of that moment, and that was Don Kricky doing the

566
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 2: game with Ahmad Rashad. Listen to their description of what

567
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: was unfolding, and then NBC picks up Sam's microphone when

568
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 2: he utters the words, take a listen.

569
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 5: Right now, Seattle has the lead seventeen to ten.

570
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 10: We're getting some snowballs thrown onto the field and I'm

571
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:50,479
Speaker 10: sure that's why referee Bob mcley is stopping play right now.

572
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: A little brisk in the jungle today there is snow.

573
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 10: Reggie Williams, the coountman, trying to quiet the crowd down

574
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 10: a little bit. Jonnas not fair. They're looking for sideline security.

575
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 10: You know, people don't call yeah, Sam on this way

576
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 10: you're saying, let.

577
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 2: Me you know, Sam White one of the people that

578
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 2: was very upset.

579
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 10: About the dunk Town when they were throwing things. They

580
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 10: ut here in the jungle, These fans here the live

581
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 10: a lot of control. I don't know where they find

582
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 10: the snow to throw the snowball.

583
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,919
Speaker 4: Now, Sam White is running over to the Seattle side

584
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 4: of the field.

585
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 2: Perhaps he and Coach Knocks are going to tee it

586
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 2: up right now, I go out him for all I

587
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 2: doubt that Sam on the.

588
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 7: Well.

589
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 9: The next person that sees anybody brow anything onto this field,

590
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 9: point them out and get him out of here.

591
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 2: You don't leave it Cleveland.

592
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 5: That was a ward of cameel here time and time again.

593
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 2: And he goes in the Cleveland.

594
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 3: Years to come.

595
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 2: They don't have to play them again this year.

596
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 6: Do me down and clear them.

597
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 2: I mean his feelings and in camp certainly I don't

598
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 2: at all, but I don't know.

599
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 3: He said, we don't live.

600
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 2: In Cleveland, you live in Cincinnati, which they'll know. I

601
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 2: don't know if this is he's stopped the cropping throwing.

602
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 5: Things, but they are so far and up right now.

603
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 2: This would mark a playoff game. Let's oh man, it

604
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 2: happened this date nineteen eighty nine. To me, that headlines

605
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 2: any list if we're putting together those quotes or phrases

606
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 2: or sayings that will withstand the test of time around

607
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 2: here and we'll always be referred to. I think that's

608
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 2: number one. I think this one would be number two.

609
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 2: It was uttered in nineteen ninety by Chris Sabo. Take

610
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 2: a listen.

611
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 11: I like to thank everybody because you guys are pretty good.

612
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,759
Speaker 11: And uh, I'd like to say that, don't get with

613
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 11: a chance. We kicked her act afore straight. That's all

614
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 11: I gotta say. And all I think I I we

615
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 11: cut our mouths shut. We just went out there and

616
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 11: proved it on the field. They could talk all they want,

617
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 11: but they're gonna they're gonna sit home all winter, and

618
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 11: they know they don't got nothing because we we got

619
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 11: the ring, we got the money, we got everything.

620
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 2: I go, what an all time classic? Just a a

621
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 2: the the boyish enthusiasm of Chris Sabo, so excited and

622
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 2: so searching for words to say, and he comes up with,

623
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 2: We've got the rings, We've got the money, We've got everything.

624
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: Thank you, beautiful. What else has popped into your head?

625
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 2: While I've set this up? Because as I'm thinking about

626
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 2: the most famous quotes and phrases and sayings in Cincinnati

627
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 2: sports history, I add the famous phrase from Chad Johnson

628
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 2: during Hard Knocks. Child Please, I would add au Hanio

629
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 2: Suarez good vibes, only I would add And I'm thinking,

630
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 2: what year would this have? Been Rick Minner was the

631
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 2: coach you see was playing at Hawaii. I should have

632
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 2: texted Scott Springer about this, and it was you see

633
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 2: got hosed in that game by the officiating, and then

634
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 2: there was a brawl among the teams at the end,

635
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,919
Speaker 2: in total chaos. And I believe it was Rick Minner

636
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 2: on the postgame show here on seven hundred WLWY. Scott

637
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 2: may have been interviewing him for the postgame and you

638
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 2: hear a Rick Minner yell, this is a disgrace because

639
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 2: they had been so jobbed by the officials.

640
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 3: What else?

641
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 2: How about a classic for Marge Shot who once said,

642
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 2: why do we need scouts? All they do is want games.

643
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 2: There is another one that I will never forget, the

644
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 2: look on Dave Lapham's face. We were doing Bengals line,

645
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 2: and back in the day, this is twenty fourteen, we

646
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 2: did Bengals line at the Holy Grail. And since the

647
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 2: Bengals have moved it inside of pay Cort, there's broadcast studios,

648
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 2: we do it from there. But we were doing it

649
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 2: the Holy Grail and the Bengals were playing the Browns

650
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 2: that coming Sunday and we had Marvin on. Marvin would

651
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 2: call in on Mondays at eight o'clock to join the show,

652
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 2: and I asked him about defending Johnny Manziel, the Browns quarterback,

653
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 2: who was small in stature, was not a very tall guy,

654
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 2: and so I asked him about, you know, guarding somebody

655
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 2: mobile and small like Johnny Manziel. And Johnny went about.

656
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 3: What was Johnny?

657
00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 2: He was probably what was he six foot that? So

658
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: Marvin says, I'm looking for his height now, yep, listed

659
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:09,399
Speaker 2: at six foot exactly. Marvin says, without missing a beat,

660
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 2: over the phone and over the airwaves, quote, you gotta

661
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 2: go defend the offense. You don't defend the players, particularly

662
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 2: a midget. And I paused, and I turned my head

663
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 2: to the side, and I looked at Dave Lapham and

664
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 2: he was looking at me, and I looked back out

665
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 2: to the crowd, and the crowd was looking at us,

666
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 2: and I'm like, I'm thinking to myself, what did Marvin

667
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 2: Lewis just say?

668
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 3: What? I think?

669
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 2: He said that you got to defend the offense. You

670
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 2: don't defend the player, particularly a midget, And that is

671
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 2: exactly what he said. And if you remember, the next day,

672
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 2: Marvin apologized publicly for calling Johnny manziel a midget. I

673
00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 2: will never forget that, never forget that quote. When we

674
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 2: come back, we'll grab you. I've won three, seven, four, nine,

675
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 2: seven thousand, eight hundred, the big one. I've got so

676
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 2: many more of these to get to. But uh samwish

677
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 2: this date. Man, Holy cow, he let it fly, and

678
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody who heard it we'll ever forget it.

Speaker 3: So you got one today December tenth.

706
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 6: I'm going to go back one yesterday, December ninth, nineteen

707
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 6: sixty five and infamous day in Cincinnati sports history, the

708
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 6: trading of Frank Robinson and if you remember, build the

709
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 6: wit use the quote Frank Robinson was an old thirty

710
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 6: and traded him for Milt Pappat, Jack Balsham and Dick

711
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:20,359
Speaker 6: Suitcase Simpson. And of course we know what Frank Robinson did.

712
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 6: He went on to win the MVP for Baltimore led

713
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 6: him to the World Series, probably the worst trade ever

714
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 6: in Cincinnati history. But the old thirty.

715
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 3: Quote, that.

716
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:39,439
Speaker 2: Fabulous quote. I have a list of about twenty six

717
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,800
Speaker 2: of these, and I did not have that one. That

718
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 2: is going on the list because that will no doubt

719
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 2: live in infamy.

720
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 3: Oh that was a dark day.

721
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,320
Speaker 6: In Cincinnati history, last imagine.

722
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 3: I wish it wasn't on your list.

723
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 2: But if there you and me both.

724
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 3: Thanks, We'll see you right there.

725
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 2: You go, friend and lovely wife Philis probably hopefully listening

726
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 2: as well. Shout out to you guys. How about I mean,

727
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 2: you'd have to put the phills where you're gonna go.

728
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 2: That's a famous quote in Cincinnati sports Marty's and this

729
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 2: one belongs to the Reds. Famous quote in Cincinnati sports

730
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,800
Speaker 2: Sam has another one. Sam one said there's golf to

731
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,959
Speaker 2: be played, in tennis to be served, and other things

732
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 2: to be done out there, besides worrying about a silly

733
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 2: football game. That was in nineteen ninety one following a

734
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 2: loss to the Browns. How about two Holloway his famous quote,

735
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 2: We went out there and zipped them up. That's our motto,

736
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 2: zip them up after beating you see in the crossdown

737
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 2: shoot out, the brawl of twenty eleven along those lines,

738
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,919
Speaker 2: and not to rub it into Bearcat fans, Andy Mack

739
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 2: with a famous quote in Cincinnati sports history when he said,

740
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 2: the U see I can't do it like him, do

741
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 2: it justice that you see Bearcats number one in the country,

742
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,280
Speaker 2: number two in their own city after Lenny Brown's jumper

743
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,839
Speaker 2: beat the Bearcats in the ninety six or ninety seven

744
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:05,959
Speaker 2: Skyline Crosstown shootout, I would add Brian Price, I can't

745
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 2: do it justice. But in April of twenty fifteen, Brian Price,

746
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:14,799
Speaker 2: perturbed about things, went on a profanity laced tirade where

747
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 2: he used the F word seventy seven times in four

748
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 2: and a half minutes. In his postgame tirade, it went

749
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 2: something like, I like to talk, and I have spoken

750
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 2: as candidly as I can with you people speaking with

751
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,359
Speaker 2: the media. If that's not good enough, I won't say

752
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 2: a blanking thing. I'll go yes, sir, no, sir, and

753
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 2: I can do that. But blank, I've been as candid

754
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:41,280
Speaker 2: as I can blank about this team and our players,

755
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 2: and we've got to deal with this blank every blank

756
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 2: in time that we blank and play, every opponent has

757
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,240
Speaker 2: to blank and know which guys are available on which aren't.

758
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 2: That's as much as I can give you. I'll leave

759
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 2: the rest of your imagination. But for a really mild

760
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 2: mannered guy like Brian Price, that moment, that quote, Holy cow.

761
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 2: Junior offered one in February of two thousand, in a

762
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 2: packed room at Riverfronts Stadium, senterg Field Don in a

763
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 2: REDS jersey with a REDS cap. He looked around the

764
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 2: packed room and he leaned in the microphone and with

765
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 2: a smile, he said, well, I'm home. Another famous line

766
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:35,840
Speaker 2: from the Banana Phone Adam from Milwaukee quote Marty, do

767
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 2: you have your shirt?

768
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 7: On?

769
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 2: The famous banana phone call? That quote has to make

770
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 2: the list more as we continue. It was this date

771
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,720
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty nine. Sam Wish utters what I would consider

772
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 2: to be the most famous Cincinnati sports quote. You don't

773
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 2: live in Cleveland, you live in Cincinnati. More of your

774
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:57,520

00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 3: I've heard him say.

810
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:11,279
Speaker 7: This one was he was a color commentating on a

811
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 7: basketball game and a turn in the NCAA tournament, and

812
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 7: the announcer asked him, what do.

813
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 3: You think of this other this team?

814
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 7: And I can't think of the name of the team,

815
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 7: but he said, well, they'll press you in the fore

816
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 7: front court, they'll pressure in the back court, they'll press

Speaker 7: you at mid court. They'll pressure your pants if you want.

818
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 2: That's a classic Pete.

819
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:41,880

826
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:05,439
Speaker 2: all stems from this date nineteen eighty nine when Sam

827
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 2: Wish uttered those words, you don't live in Cleveland, you

Speaker 12: All right?

833
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:19,879
Speaker 3: Hey?

834
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 8: I got I got two. I mean I had three,

835
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 8: but you did the bam bam coffin day all. That

836
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:26,239
Speaker 8: always sticks out with me.

837
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 12: Yes, But the first one with the Reds that I'll

838
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:35,040
Speaker 12: always remember is Brandon Phillips after I think we we

839
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 12: blew a lead to the Cardinals, and in the locker

840
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:42,720
Speaker 12: room afterwards, you know, he had some a lot today

841
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 12: about how much he hated there, and you know what,

842
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 12: as a Red Reds fan, I'm right there with Brandon,

843
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 12: I hate them too. And then that, of course sparked

844
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:59,840
Speaker 12: the big brawl. Yes, Johnny Cueto kicking uh oh Man LaRue.

845
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:00,279
Speaker 3: Yes.

846
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 7: Yes.

847
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 12: And then the other one with the Bengals is uh

848
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 12: I mean, more recently with Joe Burrow when we went

849
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 12: up to Buffalo in the playoffs and won.

850
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 8: Hey, better have those receipts. They didn't know where they

851
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 8: were going to do.

852
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,719
Speaker 12: The championship game would have won because of the whole

853
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 12: Damar Hamlin incident and everything, but better get those receipts ready.

854
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, he said that right after the game. You never

855
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:27,359
Speaker 8: forget that one.

856
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 2: That's a great one. Well done. Hey, Eric, thanks for listening,

857
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 2: thanks for calling. Thank you have a great night.

858
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 3: Yeah.

859
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 2: The Brandon Phillips, the clean version would be there, a

860
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 2: bunch of whiny little blanks. And then that led to

861
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 2: the next night, Brandon leading off and walking up to

862
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 2: home plate the lead off for the bottom of the

863
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:47,240
Speaker 2: first and he taps yatare Molina on the shing guard,

864
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 2: just kind of a tap like hey, what's up? And

865
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,799
Speaker 2: yacht here took exception to that, and he stood up

866
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,839
Speaker 2: out of his crouch and and then then it was on, Oh,

867
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,320
Speaker 2: I'll never forget Hesey and I had seats in the

868
00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 2: second section behind home is that thing unfolded? What an

869
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 2: unbelievable scene. By the way, speaking of UC basketball, as

00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 2: find it where you find your podcast. But I know

874
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 2: it's on YouTube because I watched it yesterday Terry Nelson,

878
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 2: was watching the Indiana game last night and Josh Reid

879
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 2: was playing for Penn State, and I'm I forgot about

880
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 2: Josh Reed, the former Bearcat who transferred, and it got

881
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 2: me thinking during that game, and I immediately went to

882
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,880
Speaker 2: Basketball Reference, which is a great website, and I started

883
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 2: I looked at UC's roster last year to look at

884
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,880
Speaker 2: players who transferred other players, and I said, I wonder

885
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 2: how they're doing in some other spots, and lo and behold.

886
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 2: Scott Springer sent me a text to afternoon. He said, hey,

887
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,880

888
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 2: about that today for the Inquiry that's about the post.

889
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 2: He says, I want you to think I was stealing

890
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 2: your idea. I said, no, I don't want you to

891
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 2: think that. I would like to I was stealing your idea,

892
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 2: I said, I just happened to notice Josh last night

893
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 2: playing for Penn State and it led me to looking

894
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 2: it up. But he has written about it extensively today

Speaker 2: sports history. Zach, I'm gonna play it just because it's

932
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 2: it's it's such an I don't want to say an

933
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 2: odd answer. It's such an interesting answer. Zach was asked

934
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 2: asked today about his reaction to UH Trey Hendrickson having

935
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:37,160
Speaker 2: surgery and the Bengals now not having him probably the

936
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,200
Speaker 2: rest of this season at all likelihood. Wait wait till

937
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:43,440
Speaker 2: you hear what what. Zach's answer to that was, as

938
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 2: we roll on, It's RNL Carrier Sports Doc presented by

942
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 2: He said, what about Bob Trumpy and the story used

943
00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:11,399
Speaker 2: to tell about Paul Brown, who uttered the line, act

944
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:18,279
Speaker 2: like you've been there before. Absolutely, there was another one

945
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,920
Speaker 2: he mentioned, Now I forget it. Maybe he'll tell you

946
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 2: when he gets in here, Dan. Nine to midnight. Zach

947
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,760
Speaker 2: Taylor spoke earlier today a couple of things, and tomorrow

948
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,080
Speaker 2: night much more in depth on this the Bengals. What

949
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:31,439
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow said. I'll tell you what. If you haven't

950
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:34,759
Speaker 2: had a chance to see it, watch the Joe Burrow Prescott, Oh,

951
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:36,839
Speaker 2: the other Tony Perez see the ball, hit the ball?

952
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 2: There you go. Absolutely, it is a really good one.

953
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 2: But that one on the list. If you haven't seen

954
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,759
Speaker 2: the Joe Burrow news conference today. I would watch it

955
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 2: a very very bummed out. I don't even know if

956
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 2: bummed out, down bothered Joe Burrow at one point he

957
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 2: would ask, Joe, you seem frustrated. I think trags asking that,

958
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 2: and Joe's response was, there are just a lot of

959
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,680
Speaker 2: things going on right now, A lot of things going on,

960
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,800
Speaker 2: and the follow up was football related or personal, and

961
00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 2: he said all of the above, and adding to that

962
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:22,400
Speaker 2: the look on his face as he spoke today, added

963
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 2: the line I think I've been through more than most

964
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,520
Speaker 2: and it's certainly not easy on the brain or the

965
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 2: body in terms of his injuries, and said, if I

966
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 2: want to keep doing this, I have to have fun

967
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,440
Speaker 2: doing it. I've been through a lot. But if I'm

968
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 2: not having fun, what am I doing it for? More

969
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,920
Speaker 2: of that tomorrow night on the Roundtable show, Zach when

970
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 2: he talked, was ask about Trey Hendrickson, and now we

971
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 2: know Trey is out, probably he's played his final down

972
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,799
Speaker 2: for the Bengals. But the question to Zach was about,

973
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,160
Speaker 2: you know, a very fair at obvious question the week

974
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,439
Speaker 2: the news comes out he's having surgery and the question

975
00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 2: being about what's your reaction to losing Ray, And you

976
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,520
Speaker 2: could understand if if a coach would say, yeah, you know,

977
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,120
Speaker 2: it's a it's another tough break and a frustrating season.

978
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,800
Speaker 2: We could really use a closer late in games like

979
00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 2: Trey has been and we hope uh a speedy recover

980
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,880
Speaker 2: and he's back on the field soon. You never know.

981
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:18,760
Speaker 2: And it was none of that. Here here is what

982
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:24,160
Speaker 2: Zach said, would ask about Trey Hendrickson today. Take a listen.

983
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 2: How disappointing wasn't it to find out about Hendrickson and

984
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 2: not potentially being able to happen for the rest of

985
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 2: the year.

986
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 13: Yeah, nothing new, brilliant, Mean, that's that's been the last

987
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 13: few weeks.

988
00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, nothing new. That's how it's been the

989
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,920
Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. Out of the next question, No,

990
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 2: it's a tough break. We miss him, hope to have

991
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 2: him back. He's a clear difference maker. It was just

992
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 2: that And I don't know what do you think that

993
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 2: says about the relationship between Zach Tray these days. Zach

994
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 2: was also asking I think it was our guy James

995
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 2: Rapine ask about Zach and dealing with the pressure he

996
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 2: has faced this season. Here's Zach Taylor.

997
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 13: They're all challenging. Every situation. Every season is unique. It's

998
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 13: got his own challenges, He's got his own ups and downs.

999
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 13: I just take a week the week, you know, and

1000
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 13: now we're focused on Baltimore and trying to find a

1001
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 13: win and really want to win this game to get

1002
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,880
Speaker 13: ourselves a little bit of momentum before the next one.

1003
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 13: Every season is a challenge in so own ways. Even

1004
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:31,080
Speaker 13: when your record is flipped from what it is now,

1005
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 13: there's still challenges and the verst year you're gonna face

1006
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:34,800
Speaker 13: and our guys are eager for this one. You can

1007
00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 13: feel the energy level is still really good in the

1008
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 13: building and expect to go play well on Sunday. Anytime

1009
00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:41,480
Speaker 13: you're asked about pressure, you say, no one puts more

1010
00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 13: pressure on you than you.

1011
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:44,920
Speaker 8: When were you able to kind of tune out down

1012
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 8: side noise, especially during challenging seasons like this record live.

1013
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,000
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, I don't think that's something that just happens now.

1014
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 13: I mean, that's your whole life gets you ready for that.

1015
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 13: So I enjoy pressure. I enjoy adversity, something that scares

1016
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:58,920
Speaker 13: us or makes us nervous. It's part of why you're

1017
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,680
Speaker 13: in this profession is doing challenging things and doing things

1018
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 13: you don't think everybody can do. And so we work

1019
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 13: really hard, even when it's tough, and even when it

1020
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:08,959
Speaker 13: looks bleak, to find this silver lining and keep working

1021
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 13: through it and find a way to win. And those

1022
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:12,760
Speaker 13: are some of your greatest moments when you face a

1023
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 13: lot of challenges and you come through it. And so

1024
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 13: we embrace that. It's not something we like get us down.

1025
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:20,640
Speaker 13: It's frustrating when you don't win. It's frustrating when you're

1026
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 13: in close games. Yeah, that's the amount of work we

1027
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:25,800
Speaker 13: put in and the expectations we have ourselves. That's really

1028
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 13: hard when it doesn't go your way. But it doesn't

1029
00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 13: change the fact that you got to wake up Monday

1030
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 13: morning and the Ravens are coming to town, and so

1031
00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:33,000
Speaker 13: you got to find a way to win.

1049
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 2: Red's or sports history, how about let me give you

1050
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:36,160
Speaker 2: other than Sam Weiss. Nineteen seventy one a sports note,

1051
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,880
Speaker 2: the Mets trade Nolan Ryan in three prospects to the

1052
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 2: Angels for six time All Star third baseman Jim Fregosi.

1053
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 2: Fregosie would play less than two full seasons with the Mets.

1054
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 2: Ryan would throw seven no hitters, set the all time

1055
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:57,080
Speaker 2: strikeout record, and become a Hall of Famer. I didn't

1056
01:00:57,080 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 2: realize Jim Fergosi went to six All Star Games that trade.

1057
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 2: Nineteen seventy three, the American League on this date voted

1058
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 2: unanimously to adapt the designated hitter. Adopt the designated hitter

1059
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:14,640
Speaker 2: on a trial basis for three years. Nineteen eighty one,

1060
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 2: Cardinals and Podres swap shortstops. Gary Templeton goes to the Podres.

1061
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:25,479
Speaker 2: Ozzy Smith goes to the Cardinals. And this date, twenty twelve,

1062
01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:28,000
Speaker 2: because I mentioned him earlier, Johnny Manziel, Texas A and

1063
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:32,880
Speaker 2: M quarterback comes the first freshman to win the award.

1064
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:37,440

1065
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 2: youngest to win the award at nineteen. All Right, I
