Speaker 2: You can put us anywhere whatever you need. In the afternoon,
Speaker 2: we would preferably the afternoon, but I'll tell you what,
Speaker 2: wherever the show's on, I gotta say, and it's not
Speaker 2: about me.
Speaker 4: It's not me. It's Matt's ho a. And I mean
Speaker 4: this in the most complimentary way possible. It's Matt's caroning
Speaker 4: that really moves mountains because two things have happened that
Speaker 4: are almost miraculous, just miraculous. Two things that happened. Is miracle,
Speaker 4: really the right miracle. I mean, I don't want to
Speaker 4: go to lords and like get in the water, yet
Speaker 4: it's pretty close, pretty close. I mean, it is worth
Speaker 4: blowing the air horn because two things have happened that
Speaker 4: and I think it's because of Matt. I mean it's
Speaker 4: not because it's not because of me. It's got to
Speaker 4: be because of Matt. Number one, Well, yeah, Matt with
Speaker 4: a strongly worded letter, or just your deep voice, your
Speaker 4: deep scolding voice.
Speaker 3: Matt, how dare you? Matt?
Speaker 4: On Monday? I believe it was Monday. We were out right, Yeah,
Speaker 4: on Monday, we were in Downy. The crowd was getting
Speaker 4: sparse later in the show, and Matt started to complain
Speaker 4: about our water filter here at work and the water dispenser,
Speaker 4: and not twelve hours later, a new water dispenser was
Speaker 4: installed here on the fourth floor at the station then
Speaker 4: and now I did, I did, I did do some
Speaker 4: of the legwork when it comes to this particular situation.
Speaker 4: But I believe it's because of Matt, who is the
Speaker 4: common denominator in both stories, that we had movement here,
Speaker 4: and that movement, I believe is very, very positive for everybody,
Speaker 4: because unlike the water cooler at the at the station, here,
Speaker 4: this affects all of us, dude as far as listeners
Speaker 4: and the entire sports family. Because of Matt's complaining and
Speaker 4: because of his tone, Fred Rogan got a new microphone. Yeah,
Speaker 4: can you believe that? And it is Matt.
Speaker 3: Think about.
Speaker 4: His Matt's man. That's two things in one week. Fred's
Speaker 4: mike has been bad for how long? Ronnie? How years?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 4: Well, that's come on now, we're.
Speaker 7: Probably gonna say for about a good six seven months.
Speaker 4: Like this, How bad it is right now?
Speaker 7: It's actually gotten progressively worse. It wasn't as bad initially.
Speaker 4: And that's the official word of the sound engineer, indeed
Speaker 4: of Fred's show.
Speaker 7: And you know another thing, Fred thought that microphones lasted forever.
Speaker 4: What do you mean?
Speaker 7: He honestly said he said this, He said, I thought
Speaker 7: these microphones would last a lifetime.
Speaker 3: That's the greatest week.
Speaker 7: And this is how simple the process was. During one
Speaker 7: of our commercial breaks, one of these fifteen minute breaks,
Speaker 7: Fred disappeared. He went and found an engineer apparently on
Speaker 7: the other side, and by the time we came back
Speaker 7: from our break, he had a new microphone.
Speaker 4: Just keep it moving, Fred, That's really amazing.
Speaker 7: And it took this long to do something that could
Speaker 7: have easily been done within a fifteen minute commercial part.
Speaker 4: I Got you.
Speaker 2: They sent him a new microphone. He was shamed into requesting.
Speaker 8: Oh no, no, no, no, no, he's not here. He's at
Speaker 8: a remote location of the desert. Not had to go
Speaker 8: find an engineer there to swap on the microphone.
Speaker 7: So he disappeared literally literally to go find.
Speaker 2: Palm Springs is where he had to go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7: Wherever it is that he that he's doing the show
Speaker 7: from wherever.
Speaker 4: How about that there's actually like six or seven different
Speaker 4: rooms of elderly people doing podcasts where Fred.
Speaker 3: Give it your Mike Gloris.
Speaker 7: And every single one of them comes into the studio
Speaker 7: during Fred's show.
Speaker 4: So that is two count of kids, two big giant
Speaker 4: sea change moments just because they were spoken out of
Speaker 4: the mouth of Matt Money, a man who brings change
Speaker 4: to society. Matt complained about our water cooler, saying that
Speaker 4: the filter was dirty and that was bad and it
Speaker 4: was hell for a half decade and it's been like
Speaker 4: that for a long time. And you know who was
Speaker 4: really blown away by that, Like his eyes got all
Speaker 4: big and he was like, I went over to the
Speaker 4: water cooler because it was crazy because I heard Matt
Speaker 4: talking about it on Monday, and we got a brand
Speaker 4: new water cooler that was social media Matt, social media.
Speaker 4: Matt was blown away by that. And then you just think,
Speaker 4: like I got one hundred texts this morning, like or
Speaker 4: not this morning, but like at noon, like, oh my god,
Speaker 4: Fred sounds better. Fred sounds great. What did you guys do?
Speaker 4: Friend's mike doesn't sound bad? Now, Rodney sounds bad. But
Speaker 4: that's not but you know, comparatively, but that is still huge,
Speaker 4: and that's something for everybody, Matt. I mean, that's something
Speaker 4: that everybody can appreciate, something that you've done a great service.
Speaker 3: Thank you to the people.
Speaker 7: Not think Matt deserves a Nobel Peace price. Now I
Speaker 7: was getting Fred's new microphone.
Speaker 4: I would say, I don't know if if peace is
Speaker 4: the right word. Maybe science and Nobel science or physics
Speaker 4: technology talk about awesome physics, Yeah, something like that. But uh,
Speaker 4: I I do think it's a big moment for us,
Speaker 4: and I think maybe we take I don't know if
Speaker 4: today's the day, but maybe take one more shot at it. Matt,
Speaker 4: is there anything else you'd like to complain about? I
Speaker 4: don't know that we could get fixed.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the only other thing I've complained
Speaker 2: about that hasn't been fixed is Fred wearing cologne into
Speaker 2: the studio. But he hasn't been into the studio forever
Speaker 2: and he rarely comes in. So yeah, it's hard to
Speaker 2: tell whether or not that's been fixed. Oh you got
Speaker 2: one of that book? We're good, But yeah, Ronnie, you
Speaker 2: cannot have one. But you complain. But don't you understand
Speaker 2: that Matt is the common denominous.
Speaker 7: But I'm trying to get Matt involved so that Matt
Speaker 7: can lobby on our behalf.
Speaker 4: What do you want? You know?
Speaker 7: The door here, this this big heavy metal, vacuum sealed
Speaker 7: door that's supposed to seal us in a studio. Yes,
Speaker 7: this thing has not closed properly for the past couple
Speaker 7: of maybe two and a half years or something with
Speaker 7: the cord, and so no, I know, I think I
Speaker 7: think what needs to happen is I think that the
Speaker 7: door needs to be serviced. It needs to have some
Speaker 7: like w D forty or some grease put in the
Speaker 7: door so that it closes properly. Matt, maybe, maybe, Matt,
Speaker 7: maybe could you possibly get involved and help us out
Speaker 7: with that.
Speaker 2: I mean, Ronnie, I would love to, and I appreciate
Speaker 2: you thinking that I'm capable of that, But I mean,
Speaker 2: come on, man, You're a dude that like replaced a
Speaker 2: fence and you go to Low's like you with a
Speaker 2: nice belt and care for your pools.
Speaker 7: Right, But Matt, But but Matt, I'm not responsible for
Speaker 7: Fred's microphone, nor am I responsible for the new water
Speaker 7: filtration system in the kitchen. You are, you are partially responsible, Okay,
Speaker 7: maybe just a tad. You're totally responsible for friend's microphone,
Speaker 7: and you fought him to get it fixed for weeks,
Speaker 7: for months, and he ignored you. And then one sentence
Speaker 7: spoken out of the lips of the voice of the
Speaker 7: Bolts public shaping Matt money. That's why I need Matt
Speaker 7: opinion public opinion.
Speaker 4: Shaping is is the truth. I don't think Matt's going
Speaker 4: to utter those special words to have your door fixed.
Speaker 4: I don't think it affects him.
Speaker 7: But well, you know, I'm trying to take advantage so
Speaker 7: Matt can further the cause.
Speaker 3: What do you think of?
Speaker 2: Uh, you know, under consideration, Under considerate, I got a
Speaker 2: list of things.
Speaker 4: What else you got one?
Speaker 9: Mac?
Speaker 8: Can you put a good word in for the lighting
Speaker 8: around these studios? Wants burnt out light bulbs, and we
Speaker 8: do one. Matt doesn't like the fluorescent.
Speaker 4: We keep them off. They give him a headache.
Speaker 8: So oh, social media, Matt's got one.
Speaker 4: It's and social media. Matt's a believer. He's like one
Speaker 4: of the apostles, like he's going to follow you because
Speaker 4: because you did the water and he was witnessed to it.
Speaker 4: He saw the water cooler change, and he came back
Speaker 4: from the bullpen to the bullpen. His eyes were wide,
Speaker 4: like he's seen it goes. I said, what happened there?
Speaker 4: Social media?
Speaker 6: Matt?
Speaker 4: What what? It just looks like somebody just walked across
Speaker 4: your grave? And he said, Matt was Matt got his
Speaker 4: new water just by uttering the words from his mouth
Speaker 4: and then he fed the multitudes with the bread and
Speaker 4: the fish. So what do you got social media?
Speaker 10: Mattuh, I have a big complaint, and I think everybody
Speaker 10: around here agrees. Uh, there's a fridge in our bullpen area.
Speaker 10: Uh that smells. I mean I can't even really describe it.
Speaker 10: But it's the one that side the one that I
Speaker 10: sit right next to you.
Speaker 4: Well that's we have a great solution for that. All
Speaker 4: you do is get Kevin Fagers.
Speaker 2: To take it down the elevator.
Speaker 4: So you want to, you want to, you want it
Speaker 4: out of here. I would love it to remove or replace.
Speaker 4: And we're not allowed to move stuff.
Speaker 10: Right, yeah, not us. So if they're there's any way
Speaker 10: we can make that happen, Matt. That would be what
Speaker 10: are you.
Speaker 4: More likely to do? Move the stinky refrigerator for social media, Matt,
Speaker 4: or or fix.
Speaker 2: The back sealed door. I think the fridge seems to
Speaker 2: be a little more pressing. You know, you got you
Speaker 2: got an odor that's affecting concentration, that's affecting your ability
Speaker 2: to work to your maximum potential. And I think I
Speaker 2: think you hit it on the head.
Speaker 4: Pee.
Speaker 2: There's there's a very simple solution. We just need Kevin
Speaker 2: to get that thing out of there, take it down
Speaker 2: the service elevator and just shove it out right next
Speaker 2: to the one thirty four there, and we're all good.
Speaker 3: Exactly right.
Speaker 8: It's a KFI refrigerator. By the way, when they moved
Speaker 8: closer to us, they brought in two refrigerators.
Speaker 3: One of them is.
Speaker 4: Someone held like Bill handles Lots from like nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 8: One of them is handles Can refrigerator. The other one
Speaker 8: I'm not sure, but Ray from KFI just went in
Speaker 8: there about twenty minutes ago and opened it up. And
Speaker 8: now this half of the fourth floor smells like rantid food.
Speaker 3: Okay, come on, it is bad.
Speaker 2: It's not even it's KFI s it's Kfi's it's not.
Speaker 2: There's a simple solution here, Matt.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Matt, you needs to go down to KFI and
Speaker 7: have some some good conversation with some people.
Speaker 2: You just drag that thing into that corner office, that corner.
Speaker 2: That's the KFI bullpen. They have their own. Yeah, give
Speaker 2: it in that corner, take it to the correctly right.
Speaker 2: That thing gets moved to the corner, and if they
Speaker 2: push back on it, say this ain't your bullpen on
Speaker 2: the corner KLAC like the Miles Davis album on the corner,
Speaker 2: send it, take it to That's exactly right, Matt.
Speaker 4: You see that, And Matt.
Speaker 2: You'll do it with conviction, You do it with defiance.
Speaker 2: If anybody questioned, what are you doing with that thing?
Speaker 4: Fridge? This is not our fridge. This is how the
Speaker 4: Hatfield and McCoy feud started.
Speaker 8: Is step one with a strongly worded letter to the
Speaker 8: assistant pds at KFA, like, hey, fix this or else
Speaker 8: we will take it into our own hands.
Speaker 2: I think it's this case. I think it's the same
Speaker 2: approach as we used with Kevin.
Speaker 4: Just move it.
Speaker 2: Ask Yeah, you just move, but you don't even ask
Speaker 2: her for it.
Speaker 4: But like, but what I'm saying is what's been so
Speaker 4: what's been so so miraculous about this? It's just words
Speaker 4: were uttered from Matt's mouth and somebody else's hated.
Speaker 7: Right, So Matt's like King Midas, everything he touches turns
Speaker 7: to gold.
Speaker 4: Well it is this week.
Speaker 8: What if we did a segment of people calling up
Speaker 8: with problems in their life and Matt just by verbally
Speaker 8: saying it can fix it.
Speaker 4: Like, people will hear that and they'll be shamed. Right
Speaker 4: Matt's words, that's not a bad idea. Now, Unfortunately, Matt,
Speaker 4: I can't say the same for everybody. A lot of
Speaker 4: people are thrilled about the new water and Fred's microphone,
Speaker 4: but I can't say the same for everybody in our
Speaker 4: organization today. There is some bad feelings. And I was
Speaker 4: saying when I got to work today, those bad feelings
Speaker 4: were made very clear to me.
Speaker 3: From the Clipper.
Speaker 2: Podcast host oh Adam was upset it our detailed breakdown
Speaker 2: of his two am broadcast.
Speaker 4: He thought that us talk and making He was like,
Speaker 4: you know, my how I can't talk loud because my neighbors.
Speaker 2: That's what we figured.
Speaker 4: And I was like, oh, come on man, it was funny,
Speaker 4: you know, like he was a Clipper Nation is freaking
Speaker 4: out okay? And he said that, and I looked at him.
Speaker 4: He did he said that, and I looked at him
Speaker 4: kind of like is he joking? Like you know what
Speaker 4: I mean, Like was that a joke or And I
Speaker 4: looked at his face.
Speaker 3: And he.
Speaker 4: Wasn't joking, And then I is freaking out right? And
Speaker 4: then what I Then I said what I always say
Speaker 4: when somebody complains about us playing sound from their show
Speaker 4: and making fun of it. I said, you should be
Speaker 4: glad that we played it, and he said, oh yeah,
Speaker 4: I got like one hundred thousand more views. And then
Speaker 4: I asked, well did you and then he said no,
Speaker 4: so and and that was very And social media Matt
Speaker 4: can vouch for the fact that that was very. Kate
Speaker 4: said it wasn't a big deal. But social media Matt
Speaker 4: is he.
Speaker 8: Here, he is here, and Adam is extremely pissed off.
Speaker 8: But I diverted the conversation by talking to he's extremely Yeah, he's.
Speaker 4: Mad, he's mad that we made fun of his. Kat
Speaker 4: Tuco well, he did like a late night two in
Speaker 4: the morning Clipper podcast when Chris Paul got sent home
Speaker 4: and we thought it was a Scots dramatic and we
Speaker 4: played it on the air. And now, I mean, people
Speaker 4: don't know people don't know us as Petroson Money, the
Speaker 4: miracle worker. Well give me a second. People don't know
Speaker 4: us as Petroson Money, the miracle workers that got the
Speaker 4: new water filter or got friends Mike fixed. Now we're
Speaker 4: the guys that butt heard Adam Oslins.
Speaker 6: I guess we have some Clippers talk after dark going on.
Speaker 6: I happen to be I was watching the p Diddy
Speaker 6: Puff Daddy documentary on Netflix. And after I watched Train Dreams,
Speaker 6: which was great. And I can't believe this, but maybe
Speaker 6: I can give it. How this season is gone?
Speaker 4: Am I wrong here?
Speaker 3: I think he took it down?
Speaker 4: You think he took it down there? No, No, it's.
Speaker 3: It's on YouTube. He's done a couple of cents. Then, yeah,
Speaker 3: he's he does, He's on his YouTube page and I'm
Speaker 3: not seeing it.
Speaker 4: Well, he's butt hurt. I hope it.
Speaker 3: Well he shouldn't be butt hurt.
Speaker 2: We I mean, come on, really, you're pushing clippers talk.
Speaker 2: We talked about IW was got to subscribers and how
Speaker 2: great that is.
Speaker 4: That's what I said, and he did not care going
Speaker 4: to talk like this. He said it's because of his neighbors.
Speaker 4: And it was two in the morning.
Speaker 3: Of course it is.
Speaker 4: He yelled anowledge that, and then I said, well you
Speaker 4: should be glad that we played it. And then he
Speaker 4: got super but hurt and he said something snarky and
Speaker 4: then he stormed out.
Speaker 3: He stormed out, why are you so pissy, Leo?
Speaker 4: Why are you so pissy?
Speaker 3: I'm not I'm just answering your guy.
Speaker 5: You are whatever I asked you a question, I gave
Speaker 5: you an answer.
Speaker 3: Not very good ones.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's his most popular video three point six thousand views.
Speaker 2: Now I got it up. I'm sorry I missed it
Speaker 2: before three point six thousand views. Well, we're celebrating that,
Speaker 2: talking about how many people are engaging with the comments
Speaker 2: while we're watching the broadcast.
Speaker 4: That wasn't good enough. We didn't celebrate. We want they
Speaker 4: want blood.
Speaker 3: You want us to ignore you?
Speaker 4: Huh what we talked about. We'll be back with Don McLain.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Oh, no, three things Thursday. I'm sorry. Don McLain is
Speaker 4: coming up in our flower next hour. Tickets to give
Speaker 4: away at the end of this hour, we have tickets.
Speaker 4: We got Monday night football tickets to give away.

Speaker 4: Oh, that's right, I'm sorry, I knew that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Chargers v. Eagles at SOFI Stadium will give
Speaker 2: away a pair of tickets between now and the end
Speaker 2: of the show. High demand on those tickets. A lot
Speaker 2: of people excited about the defending Super Bowl champs coming
Speaker 2: out of town.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry that I'm surprised by that. Cats, I mean,
Speaker 4: don't let this addam thing affect you. Well, it's not
Speaker 4: just that it's that Matt's you know, it's like Matt's
Speaker 4: speaking miracles out of his mouth, turning water into wine
Speaker 4: and water into water.
Speaker 7: Don't forget about my door here, Matt, I got you, runny, No,
Speaker 7: he does.
Speaker 2: First, Let's let's drag that stink ass refrigerator down to
Speaker 2: the KFI bullpen. That thing has no business being in
Speaker 2: that room.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's our room.
Speaker 2: We got our own fridge in there. We've got our
Speaker 2: fridge in here. Guys, that's your fridge. Take it to
Speaker 2: the corner.
Speaker 4: I'm with you there, Matt.
Speaker 3: Look at that.
Speaker 8: A line of people waiting to talk to Matt Smith
Speaker 8: in the hallway, looking for miracles.
Speaker 4: Some just want to touch the hem of his robe.
Speaker 7: You just want to seek a righteousness with his shadow
Speaker 7: casting over them.
Speaker 2: Jeez, we're gonna get that door fixed running.
Speaker 4: We'll be back with three things Thursday. Why are you
Speaker 4: so pissy?
Speaker 1: We've made it even easier to take LA Sports with
Speaker 1: you this summer. Make AM five to seventy or your
Speaker 1: favorite AM five seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto road
Speaker 1: Trip all summer with LA Sports Problem solved Matt.
Speaker 4: What have we got social Matt's dirty bill handle refrigerator,
Speaker 4: which really did like has Matt smell bad? Like? They
Speaker 4: moved it. They moved it down to the KFI area.
Speaker 4: That's right, baby, I mean stuff's getting done. We got
Speaker 4: a new UH water filter and Fred's got a new mic.
Speaker 4: We moved the rancid fridge without Kevin figures help. A
Speaker 4: lot of great stuff happening here on this crunchy groove Thursday.
Speaker 4: And now it's time for three things Thursdays, except that
Speaker 4: fully functional employee Adam is still kind of but her.
Speaker 4: But we got three things Thursday.
Speaker 2: Many shit start with the amateur ranksp and something. You
Speaker 2: can weigh in them, because I think it is right
Speaker 2: in step with something a platform that you have been
Speaker 2: critical of and have been a leading voice against the
Speaker 2: ending of the most historic rivalry and all of college
Speaker 2: foot And now the next page or the next item
Speaker 2: on that checklist is being under fire. Has found itself
Speaker 2: under fire. And that is courtesy of, of course, the
Speaker 2: psychos and the SEC and the idea that a three
Speaker 2: loss Alabama team could be left out of the twelve
Speaker 2: team college football playoff has led to a mounting push
Speaker 2: and a push that has appeared in years past of
Speaker 2: getting rid of the championship games for conferences. Conference championship
Speaker 2: games are no longer viable, no longer needed, the kind
Speaker 2: of hurt you only hurt you.
Speaker 4: And they're they're not as bad as the as as
Speaker 4: the committee. Just these things that you don't really.
Speaker 2: Need these people. What's the point of a conference cham Well,
Speaker 2: obviously we know the point of it. It's to make
Speaker 2: a bunch of money. It's to get a bunch of
Speaker 2: people to go to Atlanta and the Mercedes Ends Dome
Speaker 2: and watch their two teams, because fans of Alabama and Georgia,
Speaker 2: of course, are going to pack that to standing room
Speaker 2: only capacity. ESPN is paying to air it on its
Speaker 2: network on ABC and it likely will be watched by
Speaker 2: ten to twenty million plus viewers.
Speaker 4: Yea, the whole thing is wagging the dog, you know,
Speaker 4: the conversation wags, the games wags that do we need
Speaker 4: the games wags? The twenty four hour coverage on all
Speaker 4: the stations.
Speaker 2: And what else are we going to talk about?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Not the game? You gotta talk about all the impact
Speaker 2: of the game, spot the matchup and whether or not
Speaker 2: Alabama could sweep Georgia twice in one season. If Georgia
Speaker 2: can exact revenge instead, it's well Alabama lose this game,
Speaker 2: they got a third loss. Committee really hold that against them.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: Big Ten's the same, we got ourselves two undefeated teams.
Speaker 2: Winner will emerge as the number one seed. I think
Speaker 2: the loser very well could still find itself as one
Speaker 2: of the top four teams in a bye into the
Speaker 2: second round of the College Football Playoff. I don't think
Speaker 2: anybody would push back against that. But I ask you this,
Speaker 2: because I've been around your father enough. He wears his
Speaker 2: Rose Bowl ring from time to time.
Speaker 3: Is there no.
Speaker 2: Romance in the championship game for these kids? That only
Speaker 2: one team can win the national championship? It's not easy
Speaker 2: to do. Indiana wins the Big Ten championship game, and
Speaker 2: those guys aren't gonna feel kind of special about Hey,
Speaker 2: you know me won, I think on a Big Ten
Speaker 2: championship game, and in Indiana history.
Speaker 4: In particular, Indiana is super interested in winning their championship
Speaker 4: game this year by you out in rats sold out
Speaker 4: at the Jerry Jones Dome, and it's because of the
Speaker 4: Mormon fans rolling in and they have a chance to
Speaker 4: win the Big Twelve. And of course Texas Tech a
Speaker 4: local team in state, and I think that as the
Speaker 4: playoff gets bigger and bigger, which will oldly happen because
Speaker 4: they'll more money there, they are going to get rid
Speaker 4: of these conference championship games. And that's just what's happening.
Speaker 4: But is there no romance left? I guess it depends
Speaker 4: on the situation.
Speaker 2: The way I figured it is, if you can sell
Speaker 2: out Lucas Oil Stadium in Indy, if you can sell
Speaker 2: out the Mercedes Benz Dome in Atlanta, if you can
Speaker 2: sell out the freaking Jerry Dome for eighty thousand people
Speaker 2: for BYU Texas Tech, I don't know, maybe people like them.
Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you what. I'm into the maction with
Speaker 4: Western Michigan. I'm into the Mountain I'm into the Mountain
Speaker 4: West Championship. I called that game the first time around
Speaker 4: this year when Boise ran over UNLV, but they don't
Speaker 4: have their quarterback anymore. I'm into all of it, and
Speaker 4: I'm sad that there's no maction tonight or do the
Speaker 4: last couple of nights there's been no maction. I mean,
Speaker 4: this is going to be the end of college football,
Speaker 4: the regular season or whatever. Then we're going to have
Speaker 4: bowl games and we'll have the playoffs. But yeah, I
Speaker 4: guess the championship games are going to go away, and
Speaker 4: I wish they would go away after the committee goes away,
Speaker 4: but it's probably not going to be in that order.
Speaker 2: Second thing, p to the professional ranks, and they not
Speaker 2: Los Angeles. None of these are actually actual. One of
Speaker 2: them is Los Angeles based, not LA based, but nationally
Speaker 2: based and a talking point. And of course it is
Speaker 2: a two win team in the Cleveland Browns and shoud
Speaker 2: Or Sanders and whether or not his head coach is
Speaker 2: sabotaging him and is trying to push back against an
Speaker 2: ownership group that forced them to draft Shudour in the
Speaker 2: fifth round when they didn't really want them, and how
Speaker 2: they don't want them to succeed.
Speaker 4: We need the sabotages coming from the inside.
Speaker 2: That's what they're saying, the calls coming from inside the house.
Speaker 2: It's what the people are alleging. Here's what I would
Speaker 2: push back on. Either way, it works for them if
Speaker 2: he's really really good and they found their quarterback of
Speaker 2: the future. Even if the wristwatch celebration is stupid, and
Speaker 2: he's kind of annoying in his postgame pressers. It's pretty
Speaker 2: hard to find competent quarterbacks in the NFL these days.
Speaker 2: Just ask for the Vikings and what they're going through
Speaker 2: after saying goodbye to Daniel Jones and Sam Darnold and
Speaker 2: trying to figure this thing out with JJ McCarthy and
Speaker 2: Max Brosmer. They want Shudar to be successful because either
Speaker 2: way it works for them. They find their quarterback, or
Speaker 2: more likely, you trade them and you can flip them
Speaker 2: to somebody, and when they have a top five pick,
Speaker 2: they can go ahead and draft the guy that they
Speaker 2: would rather have, be it Mendoza or more Simpson or
Speaker 2: one of those guys. So the idea that they are
Speaker 2: intentionally trying to get him to lose games or look
Speaker 2: bad doesn't quite jibe with what the NFL revolves around,
Speaker 2: and that is Mark Brunell can fetch you a first
Speaker 2: round pick. Gosh, Sam what's his name from Oklahoma that
Speaker 2: got traded from the Kings to the Eagles. Sam bratt
Speaker 2: I can fetch you a first round pick. Carson Wenz
Speaker 2: can fetch you a first round pick or two thirds
Speaker 2: after the trade that he received. The team received a
Speaker 2: first round pick for did not go well for him.
Speaker 2: He can still pull a couple third round pick. Quarterbacks
Speaker 2: are valuable in the NFL, and they would like nothing
Speaker 2: more than for Shador to look great over the final
Speaker 2: five weeks of the season so they can either trade
Speaker 2: them or not have to worry about drafting a quarterback
Speaker 2: come next April. Third and final thing, tip the cap
Speaker 2: to Sam Farmer, who wrote the article in Today's La
Speaker 2: Times about Justin Herbert's injured hand through the context of history.
Speaker 2: Because I found it so interesting, I decided to go
Speaker 2: to Google and search the different players that he reached
Speaker 2: out to to get my eyes on their injuries and
Speaker 2: what it looked like. One of our favorites, p Steve
Speaker 2: de Berg broke a pinky.
Speaker 4: I remember, and he was very christian Na Koye kept
Speaker 4: ripping the ball out of his hands and he killed
Speaker 4: his hands.
Speaker 2: I would highly recommend for each of these that I mentioned,
Speaker 2: go to Google and look it up. It was and
Speaker 2: he got it wrapped and it truly looks like a
Speaker 2: lobster claw.
Speaker 4: That was the next week, and he was the master
Speaker 4: of the play action.
Speaker 3: Still there's that one.
Speaker 4: Uh. The second one, remember that one distinctly.
Speaker 2: Matt Hasselbeck has on what looks like a Super Mario
Speaker 2: or a Mickey Mouse glove.
Speaker 4: And he had a glove.
Speaker 2: He's so puffy, uh that it's hard to believe he
Speaker 2: was able to figure out.
Speaker 3: I don't know what the hell was going on there,
Speaker 3: So that looked like.
Speaker 4: When Steve Hartman was interviewing Mickey Mouse hey, and he
Speaker 4: had a glove.
Speaker 2: The third one, rich Gannon weighs in about a cast
Speaker 2: that he wore when he was with the Raiders that
Speaker 2: was hinged upwards so he could take a snap. But
Speaker 2: when I typed rich gannon broken hand quarterback into the
Speaker 2: Google search, it came back with Gannon an oppressor in
Speaker 2: a full neck brace, looking like Bobby Patrio. And I
Speaker 2: shouldn't love a serious injury that he would have to
Speaker 2: wear that, but you want to put your eyes on that.
Speaker 2: And then the best one is Archie Manning, not arch
Speaker 2: but Archie the Grandfather. When he was with Old Miss
Speaker 2: broke his forearm and he came back the next week
Speaker 2: to play in a game. And he's got a cast
Speaker 2: like back in the sixties, right, that is from his
Speaker 2: wrist to his shoulder. And it's hinged ninety degrees. He
Speaker 2: can't bend it, and he's got like a sixty yard
Speaker 2: run where he's just working through all these defenders and
Speaker 2: this arm is flapping like a wing like he's about
Speaker 2: to take off.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: Toughness embodied, toughness personified with each of these men. And
Speaker 2: I would highly recommend if you'd like to be entertained
Speaker 2: a little bit, uh, going to Google and checking them
Speaker 2: out as they they live on history is able to
Speaker 2: be found at a key stroke for each of these
Speaker 2: but especially the Rich Gannon neck race is one of
Speaker 2: the better things you'll see today.
Speaker 4: A lot of men. Wow, that's street through your Thursday.
Speaker 4: I love it. I love Steve DeBerg thing.
Speaker 2: Enough of this Gan and you've got to live.
Speaker 4: You've got well, he's such a great guy.
Speaker 2: No wonder he's so mad, right, big friend of the show.
Speaker 4: Speaking of that, David vass with some hot Stone talk
Speaker 4: coming up in a matter of moments. Stay with it.

Speaker 3: The Home of the Dodgers talk with an inside look
Speaker 3: at the Dodgers. This is the Vass Report with David Vasse.
Speaker 4: David Vasse joining us right now on the Intro sand
Speaker 4: Money Show on MFI seventy LA Sports, your Home of
Speaker 4: the Dodgers. He's been laying low, but the stove has
Speaker 4: been percolating and heating up. The owners meetings are next week.
Speaker 4: There's going to be Dodger talk all next week, all
Speaker 4: the time, a return every damn night. I'm the most
Speaker 4: popular broadcaster here at M five seventy. David Vasse simply
Speaker 4: the best spectrum sportsnet MLB Network Dodger content on M
Speaker 4: five seventy. Who can do better? No one on your
Speaker 4: Southern California Toyota Dealer celebrity hotline. Hello, Dave, Biggie Rojas
Speaker 4: coming back? What a time to be alive? Yeah?
Speaker 9: Who would have thought Miguel Rojas would be the first
Speaker 9: free agent the Dodgers signed this winner. But it turns
Speaker 9: out the guy that hit arguably the most critical home
Speaker 9: run this side of Will Smith go ahead home running
Speaker 9: the eleventh in inc comes back, but also gets the
Speaker 9: part of his contract to be part of the organization
Speaker 9: as a coach in their player development department once he
Speaker 9: retires at the end of this season. So he's getting
Speaker 9: a legacy type of contract here, Dave.
Speaker 2: The team needs to get younger. They certainly did not
Speaker 2: do that by resigning Miggey Rowe, but you can't minimize
Speaker 2: what he's meant to this team. How much of that
Speaker 2: will kind of bear itself at the winter meetings if
Speaker 2: at all, like, how do they get younger? What is
Speaker 2: the best way for them to kind of fix how
Speaker 2: old this roster is?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think we saw how old the roster was
Speaker 9: after that eighteen inning game. It took the Dodgers three
Speaker 9: days to recover from those eighteen innings, and luckily they
Speaker 9: had that day off between Games five and six. But really, Matt,
Speaker 9: the reason why you're hearing Taoscar Hernandez's name out there
Speaker 9: as being discussed in trades, that's one way they could
Speaker 9: get younger. Taoskar's thirty three going on thirty four. He
Speaker 9: was injury plague last year. He hit some huge home
Speaker 9: runs again in the postseason. But I'm sure it's not
Speaker 9: the Dodgers that wanted this out there publicly, but you know,
Speaker 9: it makes sense. It's not like the Dodgers are actively
Speaker 9: shopping Taoscar Hernandez, but that would be one avenue for
Speaker 9: them to get this roster younger and get better outfield defense.
Speaker 9: I'm not sure it's going to happen, and the Dodgers
Speaker 9: don't necessarily want to trade ti Oskar Hernandez, but it's
Speaker 9: one of many moves. The Dodgers have so many ways
Speaker 9: to pivot this offseason. They're playing with house money, not
Speaker 9: only winning back to back World Series championships, but also
Speaker 9: the fact that they never traded one of their blue
Speaker 9: chip players at the trade deadline. So from Tiascar Hernandez
Speaker 9: to any one of their young pitchers to you know name,
Speaker 9: they have so many ways to make this roster better.
Speaker 9: But it seems like that's somewhat of an objective this
Speaker 9: off season, is to get younger while not dropping off
Speaker 9: as far as being a contender.
Speaker 2: You kind of let me write to it there, Dave,
Speaker 2: to get younger. Is it trading for younger players or
Speaker 2: is it expecting something from the kids like we saw
Speaker 2: from pahes when when he was called up. We've heard Apollo,
Speaker 2: we've heard Hope and some of these names. Are they
Speaker 2: ready or is it too soon for that?
Speaker 9: Too soon for that? And when I say younger, I
Speaker 9: think we all should just put it into context. It's
Speaker 9: not that young calling up guys from Triple A. It's
Speaker 9: about getting younger under the age of thirty right twenty eight,
Speaker 9: twenty seven, right in that wheelhouse. It's not going so
Speaker 9: young where you're kind of rebuilding. That's not what they're
Speaker 9: trying to do. They're just trying to find some youth
Speaker 9: where they don't all of a sudden, you know, allow
Speaker 9: Father Time to derail what they have going on. Right now.
Speaker 9: You can't move Freddie Freeman. Mookie Betts is not going anywhere,
Speaker 9: so ta Oscar Hernandez is the one way that you
Speaker 9: could get younger in the outfield. And look, I'm a
Speaker 9: big advocate for Bo Baschett. I think Bo Bashett would
Speaker 9: be a great fit for the Dodgers. And I know
Speaker 9: Brendan Donovan's name has been out there as well. If
Speaker 9: you do those type of things, somebody's the odd man out.
Speaker 9: Not all these guys can be on the same team.
Speaker 4: Are one of those guys the most intriguing free agent
Speaker 4: to you for the Dodgers Bishett or Donovan?
Speaker 9: Well, Donovan would be a trade candidate with the Cardinals.
Speaker 9: And they need pitching. Heim Bloom, who was in charge
Speaker 9: of the Red Sox, who was the man that was
Speaker 9: suit time. He was given the task of trading Mookie
Speaker 9: Betts Andrew Freeman and him worked that out. When he's
Speaker 9: with the Red Sox. The Cardinals are looking to reset.
Speaker 9: They need pitching. The Dodgers have pitching, that's why they're
Speaker 9: trade match. And obviously Andrew and Hin Bloom go back
Speaker 9: to Tampa Bay, so that's a possibility. A Lars new
Speaker 9: Bar is a possibility. The Cardinals are basically rebuilding, so
Speaker 9: all those guys are possibility, or those two guys are
Speaker 9: possibilities considering how much pitching the Dodgers have now as
Speaker 9: far as free agency goes, yes, Bobaschett to me is
Speaker 9: more attractive and a better fit than Cody Bellinger or
Speaker 9: Kyle Tucker or Alex Bregman or Pete Alonzo for the
Speaker 9: Dodgers because he is willing to move off shortstop. Max
Speaker 9: Munsey is not going to play third base forever. He's
Speaker 9: on a one year contract. He's thirty five years old.
Speaker 9: He hasn't played a full season in a few years.
Speaker 9: Bob Bachhett would give you coverage in case something went
Speaker 9: sideways of Munsey this year injury wise, he could play
Speaker 9: second base and he could be here third basement of
Speaker 9: the future. That that's why for me, Bobashett is a
Speaker 9: great fit. But for this upcoming season, a few pieces
Speaker 9: would have to be moved to allow Bishett to play
Speaker 9: in the Dodger infield, and that's what I'm sure Andrew
Speaker 9: Freeman is weighing. How does he if he does want
Speaker 9: bo Bashett, how does he get him to fit this year?
Speaker 9: So that's the challenge, Dave.
Speaker 2: What about And I don't know if you can even
Speaker 2: classify it as rumors or if it was just sort
Speaker 2: of social media clickbait, the idea about Tyler Glass now
Speaker 2: potentially being a trade candidate.
Speaker 3: Does that make any sense to you?
Speaker 2: And then I'll back that up with sort of the
Speaker 2: speculation that Detroit would want some now players, not just
Speaker 2: future prospects, if in fact they can't figure this thing
Speaker 2: out with scoobl and they decide to move him.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Well, Schooble's a Scott Boris agent and as we know,
Speaker 9: a client. As we know a lot of Scott Boris
Speaker 9: clients don't re sign or and negotiate extensions with their
Speaker 9: own teams. So there's that. And I just feel like
Speaker 9: the Tigers, from what I understand, the Tigers can get
Speaker 9: just as much for Schooble at the trade deadline as
Speaker 9: they can right now. All indications are the Tigers are
Speaker 9: trying to win. They almost won the Central last year.
Speaker 9: So it makes no sense for them to trade Schooble now,
Speaker 9: no matter how much Bob Nightingale writes about it. I
Speaker 9: don't believe from what I've been told that the Tigers
Speaker 9: are trading trek scouble right now. They're going to try
Speaker 9: to compete like they did last year. Unfortunately collapsed the
Speaker 9: last month of the year, but they're good enough to
Speaker 9: win the very week al Central again, So it makes
Speaker 9: no sense to them right now to trade Schooble.
Speaker 4: All right, Dave, last thing for you. Has there anything
Speaker 4: come of what Dave Roberts was saying about the salary
Speaker 4: cap on that podcast, flapping his jaws talking about stuff.
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, man, he's a former player and a
Speaker 9: former member of the players Union. I'm sure the union's
Speaker 9: not happy about a guy like that talking about a
Speaker 9: salary cap. I understand what he was saying. He basically
Speaker 9: is calling out some of those teams like the Pirates
Speaker 9: and others that don't spend and you know, are crying
Speaker 9: about the Dodgers being aggressive and trying to win every year.
Speaker 9: That's what he was trying to get to. But yeah,
Speaker 9: I disagree with Dave Roberts. I don't believe a salary
Speaker 9: cap would be good for.
Speaker 2: The sport, certainly wouldn't be good for the Dodgers. And
Speaker 2: at least you don't have to go to Orlando this year, Dave, Right.
Speaker 9: Yeah, staying back home. Gonna do shows for us obviously,
Speaker 9: Dodger Talk and Sports Net LA and studio and got
Speaker 9: to stay close to home. Got some stuff that you know,
Speaker 9: they need dad around, they need their son around.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 2: And by the way, the number one podcast listened to
Speaker 2: by Daniel Jeremiah in the past year, according to his
Speaker 2: Spotify year Wrapped Dodger.
Speaker 9: To Oh it's not Friars Are Us.
Speaker 4: It's not that is a big that's a big show.
Speaker 4: Friars Are Us hosted by Lee Axa Hamilton, is a
Speaker 4: huge show. But that's his number two show, number two.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Dave.
Speaker 9: Thanks guys, appreciate it.
Speaker 4: We'll be right back, Dave. We'll have four Dodger Talks
Speaker 4: next week during the owners meetings, so don't miss that.
Speaker 4: We'll have your word number song and Don McLain in
Speaker 4: the next hour Stay with the Petro Some Money Show
Speaker 4: on Empire seventy LA Sports. You're home of the back
Speaker 4: to back World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers,
