I love 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.239 this game and I love my pick. 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:50.400 You have Miami minus three and the over and the 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:51.679 over fifty two and a half. 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:55.560 Tomorrow in Atlanta, it's Indiana versus Oregon in the other 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.920 semi final playoff game, the Hoosiers three and a half 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:03.240 point faves. How about this, Demon Williams might be coming 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:06.720 back to Washington because things got so ugly. But USC 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:10.120 true freshman five star quarterback who saw on Long Street 0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:14.320 is going to enter the NCAA transfer portal. The true 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:18.159 freshman from Corona Centennial flipped from Texas A and M 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.919 to USC last December, but hardly played this last season. 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:25.039 Didn't play at all. The bowl game utilized his red 0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:29.279 shirt season. He's got four years Well maybe Lane Kiffen Watson. 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.839 You know now that he doesn't have Demon Williams, but 0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:36.560 Demon Williams has proven as a year and a half starter. 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:40.640 Who saw on Long Street. He doesn't have that kind 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.000 of experience, just even a chance. He's got a street. 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:44.960 Oh that would have been a pick six and it's 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:48.279 quite long, all right. I can see that you are distracted. 0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:50.839 No, it's just right over your shoulder. Nearly a pick 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:52.919 six from Trinidad Shambliss. 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:57.679 Tamon Williams Parris State junior is headed back to Washington. 0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.240 As we said in the last week, he signed a 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:02.760 new nil pissed off the University of Washington. I announced 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.640 he was going into the portal during a funeral for 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:08.640 somebody in the athletic department. Now he's returning to play 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:12.800 for the Huskies. Washington coach Jed Fish said, Demon and 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:17.400 I have engaged in very honest and heartfelt conversations about 0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:22.120 his present and future. We both agree that the University 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.120 of Washington is the best place for him to continue 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:29.200 his academic, athletic and social development. I appreciate Demon's statements, 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:31.640 I support him, and we will work together to begin 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:36.200 the process of repairing relationships and regaining the trust of 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:40.080 the Husky community. Translated into we were going to sue 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:42.440 him into oblivion, and he wasn't going to be able 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:44.720 to keep most of those millions of dollars, so he 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:47.760 decided to stay here, keep his four million dollars, take 0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:49.559 the millions that we're giving to him here. 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:52.680 Yes, and he's a really good quarterback, so we're going 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.040 to go ahead, and oh, look at that. 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:58.360 This guy's got a leg and a half. Man. Sheeeesze pee, 0:07:58.360 --> 0:07:59.480 that's helping. You're over now. 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:01.400 You got to get to fifty two and a half 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:03.640 and you got thirty at the break. 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:07.280 Another coach fired today, Matt Yes, Mike McDaniel. 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:11.280 Many suspected that McDaniel was safe until the firing of 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:15.760 coach Harbaugh. John Harbaugh was tied to the Dolphins as 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.200 soon as he was relieved of his duties in Baltimore. 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:21.000 So Mike McDaniel, Oh, you think like Baltimore Colts had 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:24.200 Don Shula go from Miami up to the Colts, that 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:24.960 it's gonna. 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:27.480 Flip exactly right time. It's gonna be. 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:32.800 Mike McDaniel took the Dolphins to back to back postseasons. 0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:34.240 That was the first time that had been done in 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:35.240 all the twenty years. 0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:37.920 Sexy with his cool pants, he said, his high riding, 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.800 cool clam diggers. 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:44.040 His burnout looking face with his super cool glasses, his 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:45.439 long stringy. 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:49.400 Hair, part African American, you know, flippant attitude at the pressers. 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.320 But you know, he turned Tua into the league's passing 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:56.480 leader one year and sent him to the Pro Bowl twice. 0:08:56.520 --> 0:09:00.000 So maybe he will find himself another head coaching game. 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.040 Maybe he won't. Stephen Ross has ties to the Harbaugh 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:05.480 family because he's a Michigan guy. So a lot of 0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:10.160 people are tying John Harbaugh to the Miami Dolphins. The 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:12.680 Chargers getting ready for their wild Card game versus the Patriots. 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:14.480 We talked to Jo Ortiz at five o'clock. 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:16.840 Dortiz joined us at the top of the hour. A 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:20.360 three and a half point underdog. The Rams are decided 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:23.320 favorites the largest spread of the weekend as they travel 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:26.920 to Carolina. They have the lunchtime game there on Saturday. 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:31.000 Ten and a half point road favorites and all nine 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:35.600 Major League Baseball teams televised by fan Duel Sports Network, 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:39.400 also known as the main Street Sports Group also main 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:44.280 Street Bitch, formerly We're the Real Boy, the Balley's formerly 0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:47.400 the Regionals. They have terminated their contracts with the broadcaster. 0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.000 That would be the Braves, the Reds, the Tigers, the Royals, 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:54.720 the Angels, the Marlins, Brewers, Cardinals, and the Rays. Deals 0:09:54.760 --> 0:09:58.760 can be renegotiated. They are also free now to do 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:02.200 deals with other cable providers. 0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:03.760 They're free to do what they want. 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:07.160 I did not realize that the Braves were no longer 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:10.480 you know, like the TVs not, which was sort of 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:12.920 their deal for Atlanta. The national brand that. 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.040 Is bad was before the Marlin showed up and the 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:19.480 Tampa Bay Rays and other Southern teams came in and 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:22.199 said Hey, hey, we're in the South too, right, can't 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:22.920 stop us for. 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.480 Beerro I guess for us. Good luck to the Angels 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.560 and trying to figure out. I believe they got like 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.720 a billion and a half dollars or something like that 0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:33.559 for their TV deal from Fox Sports when that thing 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:36.160 was signed with Ardi Mourno like ten twelve years ago. 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:38.920 I hope they figure it out, Matt, But in real life, 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:39.839 I don't care. 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:40.720 I don't care. 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:43.599 The Lakers are twenty unless somebody wants to hire me, 0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:46.000 and in that case, I am the mailer or whatever 0:10:46.000 --> 0:10:49.120 you want to do. Twenty three I mean the concierges 0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:52.840 down there working. I think sure they're twenty three and twelve. 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:55.360 They got crushed in San Anton last night and Lebron's 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:58.440 a total bitch. But still no, he was running from 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:00.880 the Spurs. We all know he was back to back. 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:04.720 It's got a bunch of ailments that you're playing against 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.840 the Spurs and help your team instead of going and 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.679 playing against New Orleans and patting your stats. 0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:11.160 I think the Lakers can win it. 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:17.199 Stating your pads, stat your pads, dude, don't pad your stats. 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:18.000 Stat your pads. 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:20.400 They missed three of their starters, including Lebron who didn't 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:23.080 want to play second game of the back to back. 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:27.280 The Lakers back at it tomorrow versus the Milwaukee Buck. 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.600 I think the Lakers can win it, but it's not good. 0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:33.160 It's possible that they could win it. The Clippers are 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:34.440 thirteen and twenty three. 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:37.560 Matt. You know, I said all Star break and I 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:38.760 cursed them. You did. 0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:40.839 They lost to the Knicks last night. Now they're ten 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:44.560 under and they play in Brooklyn tomorrow against the Nets. 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:47.720 There's two different teams in the Tri state area. There 0:11:48.280 --> 0:11:52.000 four point thirty pm tip off right here on AM 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:52.840 five seventy. 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:54.040 I think the Lakers win it. 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:58.680 LA Sports. It's not a Laker game, so no. 0:11:58.760 --> 0:11:59.800 I think the Lakers go win. 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:03.840 Not playing. You can't win if you ain't playing. So 0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:06.520 the game is at halftime, Yes, dude, we made it 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:08.160 all the way to halftime, made it all the way 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:08.679 to the half. 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:12.920 We might even get a little sliver of twenty five metal, 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:17.200 sliver of the second half sign a little, just small. 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:20.480 It's it's a black moon, just to sliver the moon 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.520 is showing. We still have to give away black. Matt 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:24.360 Lioner and a pair of Vans that's what's left. 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:26.760 That's I think. I think this is the moment for 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.720 Blinder right for sure, this is the moment for blind 0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:30.400 people to rile. 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:33.320 And then we'll do the vans Uh right after we 0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:35.240 do Dead and the Live Guy Birthday, which is what 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:36.000 we're doing next. 0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:38.920 I can't wait.

California's third governor, John 0:14:55.040 --> 0:15:01.160 Bigler born eighteen o five Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Neither he nor 0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:04.480 his younger brother William, received formal education, but John was 0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:06.720 an ardent reader. He took it upon himself the tutor's 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:10.280 younger brother, William, who had become the governor of Pennsylvania. 0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:12.480 They worked in the printing trade from the time they 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:15.880 were pre teenagers, made and saved enough money to buy 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:20.360 the Centered Democrat in neighboring Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. He became its 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.080 editor for a half decade before selling the rag so 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:24.400 he could attend law school. 0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:27.400 That's a cool way to say newspaper, though, but no 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:30.240 one knows it anymore because newspaper is no longer exist. 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:33.480 It's unfortunate. So John is practice in law. 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:35.680 When word reaches his town in eighteen forty eight about 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.960 the California gold Rush, he leaves. He lines up a 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:40.840 few law practices he can join. When he reaches Sacramento 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:43.560 in forty nine, the firms he had contacted had no 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:47.560 jobs available, so he's working manual labor and then the 0:15:47.600 --> 0:15:50.360 area's first general election is announced. He decides to run 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:53.600 get into politics easily won a seat in the California 0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.800 State Assembly as a Democrat. With his education, with his 0:15:56.840 --> 0:16:00.000 big Grant brain, his assent was fast. Within a year, 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:02.960 he was Speaker of the Assembly. Eighteen fifty one, he 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:05.240 was nominated by the Dems as their choice for governor 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:10.400 and the first election after achieving statehood. His platform straight 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:15.720 anti immigration. Chinese folks were coming to California working at 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:20.400 a considerably reduced wage. He won but just a little 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.800 over one thousand votes and still remains the closest gubernatorial 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:28.120 election in California history. He protected the mining industry from 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.720 leasing to outside monopolies. He ushered in an era of industrialization. 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:36.240 He paid vigilanties for quote expeditions against the Indians all around. 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:41.000 Bad Guy enacted policy to prevent Chinese immigrants from entering 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.800 the state, charging them fifty bucks ahead within three days 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:45.760 of their arrival if they wanted to stay. It was 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:49.480 overturned by the California Supreme Court. He did, however, do 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.640 some good. He fended off the Lacompton Democrats who pushed 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:55.760 for slavery to be accepted in the state. He formed 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:59.080 the Free Soil Democrat Party to push back against that 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:00.880 and ended up winning a second tournament. 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:02.080 Office a good job. There. 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:07.080 Those are the politics. P here's the interesting stuff with Bigler. 0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:10.600 You know a Democrat in the eighteen fifties. You're thinking 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.000 that guy buy on some slaves, right, Yeah. 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.960 Bigler was governor when they were looking for a state capital. 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:22.680 He accepted Mariano Vallejo's suggestion of his town Vallejo, to 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:25.520 be the capitol. But when they showed up, he was like, 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:29.520 this place sucks. We can't be the capitol. So then 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:33.359 Sacramento was like, we don't suck, come over here. They 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:36.520 went to Sacramento. There was a huge flood and he's 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:39.560 like we got to get out of here, and uh, 0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:43.119 Benisia said we'll be the capitol. 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:45.560 There's a flood in Sacramento because they built all their 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:48.199 stuff by the river that kept rising right, and the 0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:50.600 Chinese people were like one hundred yards back, like what's 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:51.520 wrong with you guys. 0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:54.600 You're all idiots. You're just thinking flooding like one hundred times. 0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:57.439 So they go to Benisia and he's like this place sucks. 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:03.399 So they go back to Sacramentoigler makes it California's capital. 0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:06.359 In eighteen fifty four, he lost his attempt at a 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:10.359 third term. And now here's the real fun stuff. In 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:13.720 eighteen fifty four, the Democratic Majority named what is now 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:17.000 Lake Tahoe lake Bigler to honor him. At the time, 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:19.600 it was called Lake Fremont, named after the guy that 0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:20.840 discovered it in eighteen. 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:23.840 Forty half Finder Fremont, who was on the Republican side 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:26.520 of the Civil War as a general until fired by 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:27.359 Abraham Lincoln. 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:30.760 So he's got Lake Fremont. They're like, no, it's Lake Bigler. 0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:33.640 Because he was a polarizing politician, a lot of people 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:37.000 didn't want his name on anything. So in eighteen sixty 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:41.160 two it's unofficially renamed Lake Tahoe, which is the word 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:43.800 for water in a high place by the local tribe 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:44.800 of Native Americans. 0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:46.840 Okay, I was going to ask that, and it's what 0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:48.119 you read. I'm glad you had that. 0:18:48.359 --> 0:18:51.680 So half the maps read Tahoe. The other half of 0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:55.960 the maps in circulation read Lake Bigler. Mark Twain Wade. 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:59.199 In writing, people say that Tahoe means silver lake or 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:04.119 falling leaf. Bosh it means grasshopper, soup, the favorite dish 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:05.400 of the Digger tribe in. 0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:07.040 The Paiutes as well. Geez. 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:11.000 It took until nineteen forty five before it was settled. 0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:16.000 When the California State Legislature officially named it Lake Tahoe 0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:19.439 nineteen forty five. It was till then a lot of 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:22.840 people still called it Lake Bigler, biggler than Dirk Diggler. 0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:24.680 And nothing about that. He would have been two twenty 0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:25.720 one today, John Bigler. 0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:30.320 I wonder if he's got any relation to our promotions, 0:19:30.359 --> 0:19:36.320 guy Johnny, No, no, he says, no. What about Mike 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:39.760 who still holds a grudge that about West Covina. 0:19:40.000 --> 0:19:41.840 I don't want to talk about it. Nothing to do 0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:44.480 with us, nothing to do with us, all right? 0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:47.520 Beating out Oaks Christian and UCLA product for your live 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:49.159 guy birthday other day, beating out Zach. 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:52.280 Charbonnet, running the heck out of the ball in cel 0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:53.840 Is Christy Lane. 0:19:53.960 --> 0:19:58.760 She's eighty six from Peoria, Illinois, same count as Ralph Lawler. 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:00.160 Ooh. 0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:06.159 Christy married a salesman in Peoria at the age of 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:08.320 nineteen and blew out three of his kids. 0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:11.280 Her husband heard her singing. 0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:14.919 Her husband really kind of did everything he heard her 0:20:14.960 --> 0:20:18.159 singing once while she was cooking, and he was like, 0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:22.040 she could be a country star, So he became her 0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:27.520 full time manager. She didn't have much success, I mean 0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:30.040 a little bit of success. He took her to Vietnam 0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:32.959 to perform, thinking like of doing a bunch of USO 0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:37.840 shows would help her. She was traumatized like no other. 0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:40.240 She was standing right next to a soldier who was 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:44.679 shot and slumped over right in front of her. The 0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.960 whole experience traumatized her. She wanted to quit singing, but 0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:53.159 her husband convinced her to stay.
