1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: This is Tony Pike, Cincy three sixty about Cincinnati.

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:06,359
Speaker 2: From Cincinnati.

3
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 3: This is ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station. Welcome back

4
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 3: Cincy three to sixty.

5
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 4: It's our two on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station.

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 4: And while the Reds are off today, they returned to

7
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 4: action in Cactus League play tomorrow against the Kansas City Royals.

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 4: We do have two games to discuss that happened over

9
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 4: the course of the weekend, Austin. Let's start with the

10
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 4: spring training opener, the debut of the red spring training

11
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 4: and it was started by Chase Burns. Two innings, two strikeouts,

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 4: no hits. But I think, Austin, as we discussed earlier,

13
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 4: a theme of at least two games of spring training,

14
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 4: some control issues for not just Chase Burns, but for

15
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,639
Speaker 4: the Reds pitching staff as a whole. Chase Burns did

16
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 4: walk three batters in that day.

17
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, and burn said afterwards he felt some jitters. He

18
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 5: was a little bit nervous and because of that was

19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 5: struggling a little bit to locate his pitches. And you

20
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 5: could obviously tell there, but still just as nasty. He

21
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 5: says that change up is a lot better than what

22
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 5: it was a year ago, if you remember, he kind

23
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 5: of put the development of that pitch on hold to

24
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 5: come up to the big leagues and use what had

25
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 5: gotten him to that point. And he's worked a lot

26
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 5: on that change up and it appears to be exactly

27
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 5: what he's looking for and looked pretty good. On Saturday.

28
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 4: Rett Louder did give up one run over two innings.

29
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 4: He did strike out four, walked one, gave up two

30
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 4: hits and one on run. The Reds and their scoring

31
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 4: came courtesy of Willie Beamon Will Benson in the top

32
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 4: of the third, a three hundred and ninety foot blast.

33
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 4: Edwin Royo scored on the play. Will Benson had himself

34
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 4: a nice start to his spring training with a two

35
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 4: run home run.

36
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 5: Spring training a regular season. It doesn't matter. Will Benson

37
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 5: owns the Cleveland Guardians, Willie Bahmon his former club. He

38
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 5: just I mean that thing was one hundred and eight

39
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 5: off the bat. No doubter admired his work. Good for him.

40
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 4: Tyler Stevenson collected a hit in the game, but not

41
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 4: much else for the Reds, who were held to just

42
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 4: four hits. Edwin Arroyo had one, Blake Dunn had one.

43
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 4: We talked about the Benson home run and the Tyler

44
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 4: Stevenson hit as well anything else from the start of

45
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 4: spring training the four to two loss. Not that wins

46
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 4: and losses matter at all to the Cleveland Guardians.

47
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 5: I think the big thing is Blake Done. You just

48
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 5: mentioned his name. He was one of the guys that

49
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 5: got a hit and was able to play a little

50
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 5: bit of center field. Dan Myers also played in that game.

51
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 5: Blake Dunn has tweaked his stance. He is one of

52
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 5: the fastest players in the organization. He can play center field.

53
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 5: He's a right handed bat, and after he was sent

54
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 5: down and went to Triple A last year, the second

55
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 5: half of the season he was fantastic. There has been

56
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 5: a change in Blake Dunn's approach at the plate that

57
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 5: could make him a dark horse candidate to make this team.

58
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 5: A lot of people have kind of just given it

59
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 5: to Dan Myers because of his history, his experience, and

60
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 5: his ability to hit left handers. Blake Done may have

61
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 5: something to say about that very early. And I'm not

62
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 5: saying one hit in one game means anything, but he's

63
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 5: a guy that has raised some eyebrows for the Reds

64
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 5: over the last couple of months.

65
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 4: I think the control thing is obviously something you work

66
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 4: through in spring training. Guardians pitching walks five batters, the

67
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 4: Reds pitching walks seven, that's going to happen. What's your

68
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 4: panic meter right now? In Suarez who went over three

69
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 4: on his debut.

70
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 5: I don't have any panics. I don't have any panic yet.

71
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 5: I would hope that he'll get it figured out. In

72
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 5: the World Baseball class I'll.

73
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 3: Tell you where to go.

74
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what I like to see, because you

75
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 4: think of Game one and spring training and all the

76
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 4: build up. I thought impressive to see south Stewart walk twice.

77
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, and one of those was a challenge yep, that

78
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 5: was clearly not a strike. That was called a strike,

79
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 5: and he, without hesitation, challenged it and got it right

80
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 5: and got on base.

81
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,559
Speaker 4: Much more offense on display in the red second spring

82
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 4: training game, albeit a fourteen eight loss to the Seattle Mariners.

83
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 4: This to me wasn't as much about the pitching as

84
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 4: as we'll talk about everything else, but some of the

85
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 4: highlights from what the pitchers were able to do. Ten

86
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,799
Speaker 4: walks spread out around Red starters in the game. Graham

87
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 4: Ashcraft struck out a couple of batters. Connor Phillips is

88
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 4: a guy we're gonna, I think, keep an eye on.

89
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 4: He struggled in his debut two thirds of an inning

90
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 4: and two hits, three earned runs for Connor Phillips. It

91
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 4: was very nice, I thought, though Austin, to see tj

92
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 4: Antone pitch a perfect inning with a strikeout and no

93
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 4: hitch or.

94
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 5: No walks and took down cal Rawley in the process.

95
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 5: The big dumper, Dumper took a couple of whiffs at

96
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 5: the hands of TJ and Tone, which was cool to see.

97
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 5: But I thought it was also interesting. You know, you

98
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 5: mentioned offensively there were much better twelve total hits in

99
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 5: that game for the Reds, and the top of the

100
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 5: lineup was Friedel, McClain, De la Cruz and Suarez. Now

101
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 5: I'm not getting all up in arms about spring training lineups.

102
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 5: I'm not don't do it, but we've talked about if

103
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 5: everything worked out perfectly, it would be Matt McClain batting second.

104
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 5: That would be in an ideal world. Well, Matt McClain

105
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 5: yesterday two hits, two RBI looked really good at the plan.

106
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 5: He also put long pants on. This is a new

107
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 5: development for Matt McClain. You want to look at the

108
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 5: saber metrics, you want to look at the advanced data.

109
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 5: Matt McClain, long pants guy. Now, all of a sudden,

110
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 5: I think Matt McCain is the most important player in camp.

111
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,119
Speaker 5: He can take this Reds offense to that next level.

112
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 5: Everybody wants to talk about Suarez and you should in

113
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 5: the power, no doubt about it. But a consistent Matt

114
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 5: McClain can take this offense to the next level that

115
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 5: that can take this team to an NL Central title.

116
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 5: He's the most important player in camp in my opinion,

117
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 5: and it was really good to see him get started

118
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 5: with two hits yesterday. Now, he hit really well in

119
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 5: spring training last year, to the point where I placed

120
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 5: a wager on Matt McCain to win the NL m VP. Great,

121
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 5: great value. So I just think it's a really good

122
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 5: and important start for him. Man to see Ellie have

123
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 5: a couple of doubles is this.

124
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 4: Is to me the hardest part about spring training because

125
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 4: it goes on for so long that you don't try

126
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 4: to overreact good or bad from one spring training game.

127
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 4: But like, how can you not look and say, oh,

128
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 4: JJ blede, Matt McClain, Elie de la Cruz, couple doubles,

129
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 4: TJ Friedel you know, got himself a hit and two

130
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 4: RBIs what Matt McClean like. It's just hard to it's

131
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 4: it's hard to fight from doing that. It really is.

132
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 4: So again, you look at where Bloodey was down in

133
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 4: the lineup two for three on the day. Was it

134
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 4: Charlie that brought up Reese Higins last week?

135
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 5: I was going to say, that's another name you can

136
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 5: throw out there. Two hits for Resigns as well man

137
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 5: and apparently the point of emphasis for him has been

138
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 5: two things, defense and plate discipline. Now, defensively he looks

139
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 5: really good, and the Reds posted some videos of them

140
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 5: working on catches up against the wall and stuff, and

141
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 5: you can really start to see the athleticism of Reshigns

142
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 5: when you see some of those videos. But his issue

143
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 5: once he's gotten the big leagues every time has been

144
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 5: that down and away slider just kind of darts away

145
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 5: from a right handed hitter, and he's not been able

146
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 5: to lay off of that. Plate discipline a point of

147
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 5: emphasis for Reshigins. If that can turn into a strength

148
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 5: for him. The Rets have a really interesting outfield.

149
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 4: Yep, and maybe some battles that we did not expect

150
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 4: to see. Yeah, for the Reds that that could come forward.

151
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 4: So again it was a in which Red's pitching walked

152
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 4: ten batters. I thought it was interesting. And you're talking

153
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 4: about pitching Mariners pitching yesterday. I know it's just the preseason,

154
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 4: just spring training. They didn't walk one battery yesterday, which

155
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 4: I think is extremely rare the Mariners when you talk

156
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 4: about spring training, the Mariners have a reputation for just

157
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 4: developing pitchers and rehabbing pitchers and turning them into So

158
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 4: you might remember Luke Weaver went to the Mariners and

159
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 4: revived his career. They're like the Kevin O'Connell of pitching

160
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 4: out there is your quarterback. You go over there to

161
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 4: Kevin O'Connell or Kyle Shanahan and they'll fix your career.

162
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 4: I feel like that's kind of the reputation that the

163
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 4: brewer that the Mariners have a little bit. But I

164
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 4: think the most interesting ones on there Graham Ashcraft. He

165
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 4: came out, struck out two. He did what he always

166
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 4: does though, which has walked the first guy he faces.

167
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 4: I wanted to tweet about that, but I knew people

168
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 4: would be all over me for a spring training tweet.

169
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 4: I love Graham Ashcraft really liked the guy. I need

170
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 4: him to stop walking the first he faces. That's something

171
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 4: to work on in spring training.

172
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 3: And you mentioned he.

173
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,599
Speaker 4: Didn't walk one of his first down and against the

174
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 4: Guardians he didn't pitch though now he didn't pitch.

175
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 5: Yes, so literally the first batter he's facing October, he walked.

176
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 5: Zach Maxwell, big sugar, big struggle. Luis May same with him.

177
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 5: But these were the issues with these two guys last

178
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 5: year as well, and eventually they pitched pretty well for

179
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 5: the Reds. So early, early, early, I'm gonna say early returns.

180
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 5: Shout out TJ Friedel too. Just like that guy.

181
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 4: It's almost like you just know what you have, Like

182
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 4: that's a luxury to have, Like you kind of don't

183
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 4: worry as much about spring training because you know what

184
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 4: you have in Friedel mm hm, like McLean, you got

185
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 4: to see something, Ellie, you want to see something mentioned before,

186
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 4: Like I'm not worried about Suarez. He's a veteran. You

187
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 4: kind of know what he is. What do you make

188
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 4: of like, like how how much weight do you put on?

189
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:53,559
Speaker 4: Like Spencer Steer spring.

190
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 5: Yeah. I was about to bring him up because Charlie

191
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 5: wrote about him this week and Spencer is just kind

192
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 5: of going through all this. He feels like he has

193
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 5: to prove himself again as a left fielder, as a

194
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 5: second baseman. He wants to be the backup second basement,

195
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 5: which we've talked about that role a lot, and I

196
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 5: feel like what we're seeing is also a development of

197
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 5: Spencer Steer and TJ. Friedo, as Charlie wrote, together as

198
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 5: leaders of this team, the guys that have been around

199
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 5: longer than mostly everybody else, and guys kind of looking

200
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 5: up to them about the way they work, about the

201
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 5: effort that they put in, and Steer being that guy

202
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 5: who's training at first base, second base, left field, right field,

203
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 5: doing all sorts of stuff every single day. I think TJ.

204
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 5: Friedel described him as busy, the busiest guy on the field,

205
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 5: So I think with him knowing that he's healthy is

206
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 5: the most important thing. Guys hit twenty homers each of

207
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 5: the last three years. I feel like he'll figure it

208
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 5: out even if he starts slow.

209
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. I fight it every year.

210
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 4: I literally fight it every year on how much too

211
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 4: under or overreact to spring training.

212
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 3: Games.

213
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 5: It's yeah, And it's also hard because you can't see

214
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 5: it right. You watch maybe five out of the thirty

215
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 5: games that they play, so it's hard to put a

216
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 5: finger on exactly what is different or what guys are

217
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 5: working on. And you never know based off the pitcher

218
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 5: they're pitching they're going up against. Is this guy trying

219
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 5: to make the club and he's throwing his best stuff?

220
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 5: Is it a veteran who's working on a certain pitch

221
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 5: and all this other So, by the way, Hunter Green

222
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 5: added a new pitch, a two seam fastball, So that'll

223
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 5: be interesting to see Hunter through a simulated game yesterday.

224
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 5: I believe he is going to start the game Friday

225
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 5: for the Reds. Andrew Abbott I believe is going to

226
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 5: pitch tomorrow Nicolodolo Wednesday.

227
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 4: It is thirty one days from first pitch at Great

228
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 4: American Ballpark on opening Day. Has there ever been a

229
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 4: more prominent Red to wear number thirty one than the

230
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 4: great Johnny Gomes?

231
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 5: Yes? Probably many, who.

232
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 3: I don't know.

233
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 5: I'm sure there's not the Big Pasta. I mean big Pasta.

234
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 5: He's up there. How could he not be?

235
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 3: What about the nineteen thirty seven version of Johnny Vandermere.

236
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, I mean back to back no

237
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 5: hitters for Johnny Vandermer.

238
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 4: Jim O'Toole. Who could forget John Franco. Now that dude's

239
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 4: a beast?

240
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 3: What about the year Mike Miner gave him?

241
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, that exact guy exists.

242
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 4: Oh, Henry Ramos, dud. What about the career Drew storn One,

243
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 4: I'd like to forget. We're talking. You also got to

244
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 4: remember our guy, my guy.

245
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 3: Who's that?

246
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 5: Scott Sullivan, Scottie Sola, Scott Sullivan in nineteen ninety eight.

247
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 5: You can never forget Kelly Stenette. Of course, another one

248
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 5: of the greats, John Franco. I like John Franco. John Franco,

249
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 5: his daughter has a prominent TikTok account in which she's

250
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 5: often messing with him and it's hilarious. But every once

251
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 5: in a while she'll show like old reds highlights to him,

252
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 5: and you know, he's just a hilarious guy. By the way,

253
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 5: Matt Belile, he was a terrible player.

254
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 4: Were number thirty one? There's some there's some bad thirty ones.

255
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 5: Matt Belile, though Pitchon ended up pitching in almost seven

256
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 5: hundred games. Yeah, but I'll tell you what I mean.

257
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 5: You want to talk about a guy who is no good? Now,

258
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 5: there's a Matt Belisle. There's a name here that I

259
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 5: don't recognize from the four season Jung Bong Jung Bong

260
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 5: two thousand and four, thousand and four, I know the

261
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 5: Reds were Who is that halfway decent? In two thousand

262
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 5: and four? Jung June a Korean born player.

263
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 4: He played three games for the Reds and oh four

264
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 4: all right, one and one with the four to seven.

265
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 5: He was a picture Yeah, okay, Jung Bong, All right,

266
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 5: shout out to Jung. Now it's either Jung or Young

267
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 5: Young Bong Jung Bo. Jason Marque as well.

268
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 3: That's a good one.

269
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 5: You might remember him from many years with the now

270
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 5: Cardinals and Braves.

271
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,439
Speaker 4: Let's just be honest about this. Do we even need

272
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 4: to do one of these tomorrow for number thirty? I mean,

273
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 4: it's Tyler Maley. Stop man, you want to talk? Do

274
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 4: you want to talk about pissing the up man off?

275
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 3: That would be the way.

276
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 5: There actually are some really interesting ones, like Travis Wood.

277
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 5: I think he almost threw a perfect game at Wrigley

278
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 5: Field once against the Cubs. Norris Hopper, who I have

279
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 5: a memory seared into my mind of listening to a

280
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 5: Reds game on the radio. I think the Reds were

281
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 5: in Pittsburgh and Norris Hopper dove for a ball in

282
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 5: center field and tourist Rotator Cuff. That's one of those random,

283
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 5: you know, memories in Red's history. But there's there's a

284
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 5: few pretty funny number thirties.

285
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 4: Tomorrow, we'll take our break here, we'll get the talkbacks,

Speaker 5: What's that?

302
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 4: Thanks to the great Joe Daniman who listens along. We

303
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 4: made reference of the great Uh Jung Bong or June Bong.

304
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 4: You just need to pick one. It was Joe Daniman

305
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 4: that said during the break. Fun fact about Bong. He

306
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 4: actually started in Ken Griffy Junior's five hundredth home run game, which.

307
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 5: I immediately know was June twentieth of two thousand and four

308
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 5: because I have a pennant with that date on it

309
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 5: of Junior blasting that five hundredth blast. But Jung was

310
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 5: on the mound that day.

311
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 3: Huh unreal?

312
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 5: Do you know where that game was played?

313
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:20,040

00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 5: You don't know where was it?

00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 5: Yes, dude, Goh.

319
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 3: Lee, I want to know more about Jung Bong.

00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 5: See if you can we get Jung to call in.

321
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 3: Jung, if you're listening, call in.

00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: We have a contact for Jung Bong.

324
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 5: I know our guy Michael Anderson uh is often listening.

325
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,760

326
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 5: to contact Jung. He's got to be listening, or maybe

327
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,359
Speaker 5: the correct pronunciation.

328
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:58,320

Speaker 6: I said, I love Tony, I love Austin, I love you.

334
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 3: Wow, thank you, well done.

335
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean to be able to built that out

336
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 5: on a Monday morning at six twenty three am. Pretty impressive.

337
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 8: Put stuff, guys, Nick cahoodagh because I go out here

338
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 8: in Goodyear early morning, got out here Friday, heading back

339
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 8: home Thursday. Then I'll come back middle of the month,

340
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 8: but up early today, making them two hour drive down

341
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 8: to two song. We're going to assist in the Nancy

342
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 8: Guthrie brought with them volunteer searches for Nancy Guffrey.

343
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 3: I don't think nothing will come out of it and

344
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 3: just say we're a part of it.

345
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 8: Hell, but we went to the game yesterday that JJ

346
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 8: bla day something else. Let me tell you, I ain't

347
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 8: seen a left handed bat since Larry Walker like JJ day.

348
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 3: The sound of that ball hitting the bat.

349
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 8: We got something with this guy, you remember, mckcahoonah told JJ.

350
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, I get the feeling, and I maybe

351
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 5: This is just because they both wear number twenty two.

352
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 5: But I think I think JJ Blade could be the

353
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 5: next Derek Dietrich and the love affair that Red's fans

354
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 5: have for him if he still oh no, hey.

355
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 3: Greg Sharonville.

356
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 9: Three takeaways from a great weekend. My paracats are back

357
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 9: on Tony. You still have game and really a smooth shot,

358
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 9: and I love may so the man leaves it all

359
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 9: out on the course.

360
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 5: This is how I know Greg's full of craft because

361
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 5: I was told you couldn't shoot the ball at all.

362
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 3: I was eleven to twelve from the foul line.

363
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 5: Okay, from the foul line. Okay, maybe that's what he's

364
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 5: talking about the charity Street.

365
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 4: I appreciate Greg because he showed up yesterday to watch

366
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 4: a highly contested mat.

367
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 5: Greg is the best.

368
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 10: So I'm guessing between the hockey team and Mike Turrico

369
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 10: at the end of the game, the SP's and the

370
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 10: Sports Emmy's.

371
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 5: A boat's been wiped out for this year.

372
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 10: Just great work on all fronts by everybody at NBC

373
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 10: and the hockey team.

374
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, I have I have two beefs with NBC, and

375
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 5: maybe I can ask Joe Daniman about this tomorrow because

376
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 5: he is, you know, the television expert. The shots immediately

377
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 5: after the goal, the golden goal, game winning goals for

378
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 5: the United States, both men's and women's, did not immediately

379
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 5: capture the celebration of the Americans, agreed one. It just

380
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 5: zoomed out of the crowd and it was delayed on

381
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,719
Speaker 5: the men's game and for the women's game, it kind

382
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 5: of zoomed out and then went to the Canadian players

383
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 5: with their heads in their hands. That's my only beef.

384
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 5: I want to see the celebration, sure right away.

385
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 7: Happy month, everybody.

386
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 3: What a weekend it was.

387
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 7: You have Tony's bear cat with the big I've said,

388
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 7: you had the men's hockey team bringing home gold. You

389
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 7: had Michael Jordan his drivers won back to back weeks

390
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 7: in NASCAR. That's pretty cool. And now we're on to

391
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 7: the I'm buying so let's go overbody who that go?

392
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 11: Reds Okay, Austin and Unbearable Tony. The Kentucky season is

393
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 11: done officially thirty one. Matt Bellile days away from opening day.

394
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 11: Great to see baseball back on his past weekend and

395
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 11: tell you what, I'm not a big hockey guy, but man,

396
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 11: that game on Sunday was fantastic.

397
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 12: Agreed, totally disgusted with the direction of the UK basketball

398
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 12: program is going. We should be looking at a one

399
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 12: or two seed, not hoping to get into the tournament

400
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 12: tournament period.

401
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 2: My plan is.

402
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 12: We fire Mark Pope, Oh, hire Rick Patino, he'd love

403
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 12: to be back here, given a couple of years to

404
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 12: get the program in line, and then hire his son

405
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 12: Richard Oh. Go USA.

406
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 5: All right, Ken's got it planned out. Did I see

407
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 5: Saint John's as won thirteen games in a row, Yes,

408
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 5: longest wind streak in forty years and playing some good

409
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 5: defense too. Maybe it's nineteen eighty all over again.

410
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 12: Tony Otto, Ryan Yellow Springs.

411
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 13: It's hard to describe how meaningful that win was yesterday

412
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 13: for USA hockey. As a guy and my twin brother, Adam,

413
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 13: who's also a listener, grew up playing public Ohio hockey.

Speaker 13: out talliwan to high school hockey, Like that win yesterday

416
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 13: was for so many Americans who grew up maybe you know,

417
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 13: watching miracle or cheering on Patrick Kane the twenty ten Olympics, Like,

418
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 13: finally our program is there at the top. Just a

419
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 13: quick double dip to say what a moment the sport

420
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 13: is having here in the US in general, coming off

421
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 13: of the success of the Four Nations last year, and

422
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 13: just where the women's game is at a national level

423
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 13: here in the US, and just the popularity that's growing

424
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 13: all over here in the state specifically had the stadium

425
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,360
Speaker 13: here his game finally in the Horseshoe last year, red

426
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 13: Wings versus Blue Jackets. Just the game's on an unbelievable

427
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 13: trajectory right now, and I love how many young folks

428
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 13: are gonna get involved because of yesterday's.

429
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 14: When I agree, love it, Ryan, I agree, Tony Audi, TJ.

430
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 14: East Side, I'm the Big five O todad to put

431
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 14: that perspective for you wibber snappers. I have a big

432
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 14: memory of Super Bowl sixteen. I was in junior hyder

00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,600

437
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 5: That was a fantastic birthday President.

438
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 14: I'm not a big hockey follower, but probably watched that

439
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 14: last goal ten times over anyway, my son calls me

00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:40,600

470
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 16: It's kind of like when the Blue Jays lost to

471
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 16: the Dodgers. Some broadcaster lost his mind saying the better

472
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 16: team didn't win enough, look at the scoreboard.

473
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 17: What if?

474
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 16: In nineteen forty five, after the fall of Berlin, Germany

475
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 16: was like, oh, the team did not win enough, look

476
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 16: at the scoreboard.

477
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 3: Tighten it up.

478
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 7: Wow.

479
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 5: One of the also, you know, the beauties of sports

480
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 5: is that the better team doesn't always win.

481
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 18: Austin, what's going on, Vellas Mike and Independence. It was

482
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 18: nice to see the Bearcats go inside, use their size,

483
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 18: take advantage, kick it out to open shooters if it's

484
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 18: not there. You know, with stored history, with big guys

485
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 18: in Cincinnati over the last couple decades, Kenny Martin, Denny Forts,

486
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 18: and Gary Clark. Jason Maxiell just taken over in the paint.

487
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 18: So it was nice to see big win. Let's beat

488
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 18: the Raiders on Tuesday.

489
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 3: Let's go.

490
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 19: Let's go, Hey guys, Jeff and INDI love the bubble talk, Tony.

491
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 19: I'm a diehard Indiana Hoo's yours fan, a guy who's

492
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 19: watched his team make it sometimes, and I'm the king

493
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 19: of the bubble and you hit every talking point just

494
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 19: right there. But I will tell you I've watched this

495
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 19: and I looked at Cincinnati. If they win three of

496
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 19: their last four, they don't have to beat Texattack, and

497
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 19: they win three to their last four and lose one

498
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 19: in the conference tournament, they'll make it because of the

499
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 19: strength of their victories that they would have over this

500
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 19: last month.

501
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 12: Unless there's a bid thief. That's what you have to

502
00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 12: watch out for, Tony.

503
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 3: Good luck, got goosebumps right now.

504
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 5: Just think good old fashioned bid.

505
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 4: Jeff's team as well, one of those teams listed at

506
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 4: the Indian Hoosiers with some work left to do.

507
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 20: Hey guys, Tony from Loveland, I just want to say

508
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 20: what a great weekend. USA win the Gold Bear Cast

509
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 20: Pound in Kansas, and I got to meet the one

510
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 20: and only Tony Pike over at Oakley Greens on Sundays.

511
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 20: But Tony, want to let you know, I did not

512
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 20: see any of your cards come out of any rip package.

513
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 20: But the person next to me did rip a fifteen

514
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 20: dollars gold Pokemon card whatever those are. But anyway, great

515
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 20: meeting you and take care.

516
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 4: Yeah to saw Tony from Loveland yesterday. He said it

517
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,679
Speaker 4: was the first time he's had a table at one

518
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 4: of these events. Oh nice, So I had some good

519
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 4: cards on display, okay, Tony, Yeah, very cool.

520
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 9: Tony Pike, Power Cleaner and Austin Elmore.

521
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 3: How are we doing it to get ex Jo healthy here?

522
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 5: So I've been doing mock drafts a lot, just the

523
00:26:59,040 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 5: first round.

524
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 12: Don't have time to do the whole draft, just the

525
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 12: first round.

526
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 21: And it's getting a little ear Even all the defensive

527
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 21: players I want aren't going to be available at ten

528
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 21: off these simulations of consensus.

529
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 12: To me, that's not a problem.

530
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 21: If we sign a safety, linebacker, and defensive lineman and

531
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 21: free agency, do you agree.

532
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 5: Yes, I don't think they should let the Bengals draft

533
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 5: a player. If they don't sign those three guys before

534
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 5: the draft happens, you've got to create flexibility number ten

535
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 5: by being active in free agency.

536
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,719
Speaker 22: I don't know if you guys mentioned it or not,

537
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 22: but it deserves a shout out. Sharondl native Colin Curran

538
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 22: won a gold medal with the mixed team Aerial Freestyle

539
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 22: and beat a Chinese team that featured two gold medalists

540
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 22: and a bronze medalist, and they basically crushed them, So

541
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 22: shout out to them. Congratulations.

542
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 3: That's go with the Colin nice, very cool.

543
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 13: I am excited to see what Maddi long bottoms McClean

544
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 13: does the rest of the spring training and.

545
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 23: Man, if you can carry that over into the regular season,

546
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 23: I think we're in for a good one. Maybe long

547
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 23: pants equals more long balls, no pun.

548
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 5: Intended now, he said Maddie long bottoms. Ooh, I like that.

549
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 5: Now you know what I've been I've been kind of waiting.

550
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 5: I need my guy Spencer Steer to go deep in

551
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 5: spring training so I can put the spency long balls

552
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 5: tweet out there, which I love to tweet. But I

553
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 5: like the idea of Maddy long bottoms and maybe some

554
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 5: sort of combination with Matty long balls. I'm interested in this.

555
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 3: So here we go.

556
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 24: You're gonna say, Jam, we already covered this. So my

557
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 24: two part question is in hockey, is it harder to

558
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 24: get a Stanley Cup or a Gold mount And the

559
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 24: second part is as a hockey player, is it more

560
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 24: desirable to get the Stanley Cup or a gold medal?

561
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 3: See?

562
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 4: I think for hockey, I don't know which is harder,

563
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 4: but I think the gold medal is more desirable.

564
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 5: I would say that most hockey players would tell you

565
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 5: that the Stanley Cup is more desirable.

566
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 4: By the way, for those Canada fans mad at the

567
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 4: three on three at the end, maybe you should have

568
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 4: scored when it was five on three in the game

569
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 4: and you wouldn't be in that position the most. What

570
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 4: about killing a five on three penalty?

571
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 5: The most impressive stat I saw from the entire Olympics

572
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 5: was that the United States was perfect on penalties they

573
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 5: killed or power plays. They killed every single power play

574
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 5: that they came across in that entire tournament. Elite, I

575
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 5: think it would be harder to get a gold medal

576
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 5: because you only play every four years and you're not

577
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 5: guaranteed to have a great team around you. But I

578
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 5: think most players would say the Stanley Cup is more desirable.

579
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 25: Tony and Austin, did you know the silver medal is

580
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 25: the only medal that you don't win you win the

581
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 25: gold medal? Of course, you have a bronze medal game,

582
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 25: and silver medal is the only metal that you're just

583
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 25: given as the first loser to the gold medal game.

584
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 3: Fun fact, I guess that's true. Good point joke of

585
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 3: the day. Oh, how many Mexicans do.

586
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 5: Nope, No, not doing that.

587
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 3: Nope, nope, nope.

588
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 21: Double dip, Austin to address your test for the camera work.

589
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 21: After the US scored their goal, I've heard some interesting

590
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 21: theories online that the people actually in the camera boost,

591
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 21: you know, the control camera to camera, were so excited

592
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 21: for the win that they were celebrating within the booth

593
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 21: and didn't click the button fast enough.

594
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 7: To switch to another camera.

595
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 21: That would honestly be a very human mistake that I

596
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 21: could see thoughts.

597
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was sure, that's possible.

598
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 4: I think there was a moment too, like, at least

599
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 4: where I was from watching it, I didn't know it

600
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 4: went in the nets at first, right, like it was

601
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 4: hard to follow, and it didn't like pop back out.

602
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 4: It just kind of stuck in the back corner of

603
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 4: the net. Yeah, so there's that delay, like what happened?

604
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw a lot of like reaction videos where

605
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,479
Speaker 5: people don't know for sure. And even when Kenny Albert

606
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 5: made the call, he hesitated for a second. He's like,

607
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 5: wait did that go in? And then he did it.

608
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 5: So yeah, I think that's that's fair.

609
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 24: Double dip dear with it. I've got beef with NBC two.

610
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 24: When they would come out of a break, you know

611
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 24: how in the upper laugh can corner they show the score,

612
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 24: they wouldn't put that dag gone score up there for

613
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 24: like two minutes. I'd walk out of the rim and

614
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 24: come back from a commercial break and I'd be like,

615
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 24: what's the score here? I am standing in my house

616
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 24: alone with my hands out to my side, like.

617
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 3: What you know? What hockey took away?

618
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 17: That?

619
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 4: I remember when I was younger watching that helped me.

620
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 4: Do you ever remember, Austin, Are you old enough to

621
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 4: remember when they during hockey broadcast would put like the

622
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 4: neon light on the puck and so as the puck

623
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 4: moved on as you're watching on TV, you could see

624
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 4: like the light following it. That made it easier to

625
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 4: watch for me. Yeah, I don't know if I remember that. Okay,

626
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 4: I don't know if I remember that.

627
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 11: Another find fact on Griffy's five hundred home run.

628
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 3: Do you guys know.

629
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 2: Who the picture that gave up the horrum was? Matt Morris?

630
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 3: Yes?

631
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 26: Yes, I recall going to a Reds game back back

632
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 26: when Bong was playing for him, and he pictured really well.

633
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 26: He started through good five six innings and then he

634
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 26: started getting shelled and uh As the manager came out

635
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 26: there take him back to the doug out and pulled

636
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 26: me out.

637
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 3: Of the game.

638
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 26: I recall somebody in the stands yelling the Bong is cashed,

639
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 26: and I just found that amusing. He went on to

640
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 26: have decent years with Baltimorrison.

641
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 5: There's definitely some middle names we could get to with

642
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 5: Jung Bom.

643
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

644
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 4: Now I'm trying to dive into the box score itself.

645
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 4: I want to know more about Jung Old Jung.

646
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 5: I would assume the Reds lost that game in two

647
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 5: thousand and four when Griffy hit that homer. I assumed they.

648
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 4: They won six to nothing. Did they really listen to

649
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 4: this six innings, three hits, five strikeouts, no earned runs.

650
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 5: Okay, I mean that's just dealing Jung Bong. Yeah. I

651
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 5: when I was a kid, I my one of my

652
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 5: first cell phones was a Motorola Raiser, and I had

653
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 5: my ring tone for pretty much the entire time I

654
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 5: had that Motorola Raiser was Ken Griffy Junior's five hundred

655
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 5: home run. It was Marty's call of the home run.

656
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

657
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 5: Or you just hear this, what a high drive hitting

658
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 5: it deep right? That was my ring tone. And I

659
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 5: remember one day I had left the ringer on and

660
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 5: I was in class. I was probably a I might

661
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 5: have been in the eighth grade, and it's just quiet

662
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 5: reading time in class and you hear Marty Brenneman say

663
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 5: a high drive into righte something was guys getting a

664
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,280
Speaker 5: phone call. It's crazy, all right, that's.

665
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 3: It, very very good. Let's uh.

666
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 5: I did not. I didn't know of the existence of

667
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 5: Jung Bong until today. What have we uncovered here today?

668
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 5: So I'm this is what makes our show great in

669
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:23,240
Speaker 5: my opinion.

00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,560

Speaker 4: coming week, what to look for if you are a

683
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 4: Cincinnati Bengal fan, if anything, and our mock draft Monday

684
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 4: ahead with your phone calls five one, three, seven, four nine,

685
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 4: fifteen thirty. I believe, Austin, I believe. We have a

686
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 4: new AP Top twenty five poll that's out right now. Okay,

687
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 4: your new number one team the Duke Blue Devils oh

688
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 4: Man Duke is one, Arizona is two, Michigan falls to three.

689
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 4: Iowa State, despite losing at BYU over the weekend, did

690
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 4: beat Houston last week. They did have a four game

691
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 4: winning streak against AP ranked opponents. Iowa State is up

692
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 4: to number four on the list this week. Houston is five,

693
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 4: So just right there, Austin. Three Big twelve teams make

694
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 4: up the top five in the AP Top twenty five.

695
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 4: Yukon falls to six floor Or moves up from twelve

696
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 4: to seven. Perdue is eight, Gonzaga nine, Illinois is number ten,

697
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 4: Kansas falls to number fourteen, Saint John's is up to fifteen.

698
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 4: The Texas Tech Red Raiders, where you see will be

699
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 4: tomorrow night, is now the sixteenth ranked team in the country.

700
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 4: And this is a little bit shocking to me Austin.

701
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 4: Miami only moves up to number twenty one in this

702
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 4: week's poll. I thought we would see a top twenty

703
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 4: this week from Miami based on all the teams that

704
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 4: lost last week. BYU off the Iowa State win does

705
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 4: stay at number nineteen, so again Miami moves up from

706
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:47,760
Speaker 4: twenty two to twenty one. You have BYU Texas Tech, Kansas, Houston,

707
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 4: Iowa State, and Arizona all in the top twenty out

708
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,399
Speaker 4: of the Big twelve. Those are your latest AP Top

709
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 4: twenty five rankings. I do not see in the others

710
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 4: getting vote category the Cincinnati Bearcats yet, but we'll see

711
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 4: what's ahead against Texas Tech tomorrow night for the Bearcats

712
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 4: real quick, because we spend time each and every Friday

713
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 4: with our good friend Charlie golds or what we spend

714
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 4: time with Charlie Goldsmith. We also spend time with Tom Gallaird,

715
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 4: the voice of FC Cincinnati, and I thought it was professional,

716
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 4: I think is the right word, Austin in what FC

717
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 4: Cincinnati did, especially on the defensive side against Atlanta. FC

718
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 4: did not score until the eightieth minute from Dank, so

719
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 4: a very good defensive output from the Orangeine Blue. And

720
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 4: then you get Dank in the eightieth and then you

721
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 4: get Nick Hagland, the Cincinnati kid, in the ninetieth to

722
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 4: give FC Cincinnati a nice two nothing victory in their

723
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 4: home opener in the MLS.

724
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 5: Here's what it sounded like when Nick Hagland scored for

725
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 5: f C sincenat here.

726
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 17: Gun's the coin kick into the box, headed into the

727
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 17: back of the NAT Cincinnati strikes and it's the native.

728
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 5: Nick Haglin with the.

729
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,240
Speaker 17: Dagger into the hearts of Atlanta United.

730
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 3: H the Cincinnati native.

731
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 4: Now, I like, do you have the audio from the

732
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 4: first goal by chance of den K's goal?

733
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 3: I do?

734
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 5: Can you play that as well from Tommy g I

735
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,359
Speaker 5: sure can. I just got to make sure that it's

736
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 5: queued up correctly, okay, and then I'll press play rolling

737
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 5: from Nick Haglin.

738
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:32,840
Speaker 17: A long throw found Barlow on the chest, but it

739
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 17: was poked away from behind my barrel. Call comes into

740
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 17: the midfield lot de lock all. They'll give me chase

741
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,839
Speaker 17: trying to get out of the ball. Baiez cutting in

742
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 17: from the far south, deflected. Robinson chops the ball out

743
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 17: to Valenzuela heads it off, Gidy.

744
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 5: Forward, great ball.

745
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 17: It's at chanie K two on one into the final

746
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,839
Speaker 17: third at Chanik into the box, over to dan Gate.

747
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 17: Ten K takes his.

748
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,839
Speaker 3: Time, dan Ka finishes it.

749
00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 27: Oh baby, the strike that NFCEE Cincinnati trimmed off here

750
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 27: in the home opener and the Origin Blue lead one

751
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 27: nil as the Queen City wars its approval.

752
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 4: I love that the Queen City roars its approval. Yes,

753
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:18,399
Speaker 4: that is fantastic. A good start. FC Cincinnati. They win

754
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 4: their first CONCA CAFF Champions Cup match for nothing last week.

755
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 4: They then win against Atlanta two to nil, so back

756
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,319
Speaker 4: to back shutouts for the Orangeine Blue. They take on

757
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 4: O and MFC the same team in the return trip

758
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 4: to TQO Stadium now this Wednesday. In CONCA CAFF Champions

759
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,280
Speaker 4: Cup play, and then they take their first road trip

760
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 4: of the MLS season against Minnesota on Saturday. So still

761
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 4: two more matches in the month of February for f

762
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 4: C Cincinnati as they look ahead to getting off to

763
00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 4: a very good start on this MLS calendar. Before we

764
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,439
Speaker 4: get to our three, let's grab a phone call. Mike

765
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 4: is hanging on the line. What's up, Mike?

766
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 23: Oh man, you guys are awesome. You know, thank you

767
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 23: so much for that. I appreciate it absolutely. I am

768
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 23: enjoying the show always. But I had an idea and

769
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 23: then I want to get to some college bas well.

770
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 23: This is a little baseball. I'll try to be passed.

771
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 23: I think the most valuable free agent pickup in the

772
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 23: off season of any teams after looking at some of

773
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 23: this stuff, I'm no expert, but I've tried to spend

774
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 23: a little time. I think Denver picking up Rico Battle

775
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 23: out of Carolina and giving them a stud at running

776
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 23: back could really put Denver over the top for next year.

777
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 5: Yeah.

778
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 4: He had a great year for Carolina this year, and

779
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 4: I think one of those sneaky moves in the offseason

780
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 4: for a team in Denver that they need more on

781
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 4: the ground game. But yeah, I think early on that

782
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 4: that's a sneaky good pick up.

783
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 23: Yeah, and you know, and evidently he's on a free

784
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,400
Speaker 23: agent market, so so hopefully that will work. Congrats to

785
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,919
Speaker 23: you and the Bearcats, You and Moe and the Bearcats.

786
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 3: How about it?

787
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 23: Unbelievable, dude. You know, I almost feel sorry for Bill

788
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 23: self dealing with his knucklehead Peterson got what is wrong

789
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 23: with this guy? What is wrong with him? Tony?

790
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,839
Speaker 3: It's hard. It feels like.

791
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 4: It's a situation I don't remember happening before. And I

792
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 4: think what makes it even more unique is it feels

793
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 4: like Bill self doesn't even have an answer for it.

794
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 4: The head coach of the team, it feels like he's

795
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 4: just as confused about this as everyone else. And I

796
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 4: think that's what makes it so unique. You got a

797
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 4: Hall of Fame coach with a blue blood in college basketball,

798
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 4: and no one seems to have any answers. And we

799
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 4: just haven't heard much from Darren Peterson either, So it's

800
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 4: just it's a lot of speculation, but just a weird,

801
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 4: weird thing right now happening in Kansas.

802
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 23: It seems like a terrible teammate I ever been around

803
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 23: the guy like that, just you know, I don't want

804
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 23: to play today.

805
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 3: Certainly extent.

806
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,879
Speaker 4: I've seen a lot of players that you watch during

807
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 4: the week and you think, man, that there's no chance

808
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 4: that player or that person is going to play, and

809
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,439
Speaker 4: then somehow they're out there or you know, you see

810
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 4: them and they're sick and they're they're getting they're they're

811
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 4: getting sick, and yet their back out. I've seen more

812
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 4: of that than the other side of it.

813
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,240
Speaker 23: Okay, buddy, and that forwarda team. I'm telling you, brother,

814
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 23: they just keep getting more and more dangerous. They're getting

815
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,839
Speaker 23: better as the season goes, and Moe's gonna hear all

816
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 23: of it. He's gonna hear every bit of it from me.

817
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 23: About you, I know you were rooting for Arizona. I

818
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 23: know you were.

819
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Arizona did without co O Pete, which is

820
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:50,320
Speaker 4: very impressive.

821
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 23: I thought it was very impressive they and they hit

822
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 23: threes and every other thing. It was like, hey, you know,

823
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 23: a real quick I was remembering all those Pittsburgh Pirates.

824
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 23: He smacked the crap out of out of the Devil

825
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 23: Rays yesterday. That team worries me. Now, I'm telling you,

826
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 23: I got a weird gut feeling about the Pirates. Did

827
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 23: you like Mixed Team going up to Illinois with that

828
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 23: road win after his tirade?

829
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 3: Yeah?

830
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 4: I thought, much like we talked about Wes and how

831
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,319
Speaker 4: things got turned around after the West Virginia game, it

832
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 4: would have been very easy for things to kind of

833
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 4: fall apart for UCLA as well, and to beat a

834
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 4: very good Illinois team, and to do so in overtime.

835
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,359
Speaker 4: I thought that was an extremely impressive win for Mixed Team.

836
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 23: I did too. And one last thing. There's an announcer

837
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 23: the Reds had when I was a little boy and

838
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,400
Speaker 23: had my transistor in the bedroom unless my dad found

839
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 23: it and then I was in trouble. And the Reds

840
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,399
Speaker 23: announcer when I was real little was Wade Hoyt, who

841
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 23: was He's a Hall of Famer pitcher for the Yankees

842
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 23: in their heyday in the twenties and thirties. He was

843
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 23: the best. If you can ever google Waite Hoyt. You

844
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 23: talk about the greatest storyteller I've ever heard, Like with

845
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 23: rain delays and stuff, this guy unbelievable with stories about

846
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:07,879
Speaker 23: Babe Ruth and the Yankees and stuff. Did you ever

847
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 23: get a chance check out Wladehoyt. Unbelievable and he was

848
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 23: with the Reds probably in the fifties and sixties, I believe.

849
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:16,560
