13
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: and to radio, and he loves what he does. So

14
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: for him to have missed the last two shows, he

15
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: had to be really sick. So glad to see her

00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,679

22
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,440

23
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,400

00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: out and enjoy. Now we're giving away prizes today. But

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: rich Man, I really am sorry because it feels like

37
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: and this is outside looking in. I'm on the outside.

38
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm looking in like Aaron Lewis of Stain. It feels

39
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: like your team is crumbling. It feels like your team

40
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: is falling apart.

41
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 2: I don't know why. That's the thing. Ca.

42
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: You know, it's like, you know they talk about all

43
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: One's he's the you know, best owner in baseball and

44
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: the culture there is great, and everyone loves it and

45
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 3: they're so good to the families listen, much like Dan

46
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 3: Campbell when he was talking about, Hey, we're gonna buite kneecaps,

47
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 3: and everyone's like, look at this dope, and then it

48
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 3: ended up working out. The Lions never won a Super Bowl,

49
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: and I don't think they're headed there.

50
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: They shifted their culture though, for sure.

51
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 2: But when you talk about Stearns, I don't think what

52
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: he's doing is rubbing anyone the right way.

53
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: Like, you're the guy, you're the president of Baseball Operations

54
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 3: and you know you're here with Steve Cohen.

55
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: You guys are both lifelong Mets fans.

56
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: I don't know how you let Diaz goo for a

57
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: couple million more to the one team you need to beat,

58
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 3: and then the next day, if that's not bad enough,

59
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 3: the face of your franchise, the home run leader, polar

60
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 3: Bear Pete. My kids have his shirt like it's it's

61
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 3: the worst Pete Alonzo going to the Orioles.

62
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: Well, it's obvious as to why Alonzo left. Okay, Alonzo's

63
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 1: gone five year deal, one hundred and fifty five million

64
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 1: to the Orioles. He didn't go there the win I

65
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: don't believe they're contenders, but hell of a ballpark, he'll

66
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: be hitting bombs.

67
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 5: Hit.

68
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: He's trying to hit five hundred home runs, is what

69
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: he's trying. And you know what he might at that park.

70
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: Great park, great vibe, cam the yards is great. But

71
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: they have a long way to go. But things changed quick.

72
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: I think this is clearly a situation of he was

73
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: disrespected last year, he bet out himself, put up big

74
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: numbers again. I don't feel the fans embraced them the

75
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: way they should have. He's been a lifelong Met He's

76
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: always been clutch for you guys.

77
00:03:59,640 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 4: Owners.

78
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: Only only guy that the fans relate to when he

79
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 3: does is like you know, LFGM and I don't know.

80
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I feel like the fans didn't have his

81
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: back enough when he was fighting to stay right. Everyone

82
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: was looking forward seeing who they could get when Alonso

83
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: was there the whole time. I really think this is

84
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: a case of job security and the five years, and

85
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: I think that meant more to him than dealing with

86
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: the Mets again and with Diaz. You know, they had

87
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: Devin Williams, but he had an opportunity with the Dodgers.

88
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: You can't blame him for that. So there's reasons, and

89
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: I understand. But what's gross about this, Rich is man

90
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: that the Dodgers keep getting better. But as far as

91
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: your team's concerned, you're still in it. You got Simmy

92
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: and you got Soto, you got Lindor. It's a matter

93
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: of who could you get in the bullpen. The Mets

94
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: are still looking good, but you lost some really really

95
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: big pieces.

96
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 3: Do you try to get Tucker? Do you get Cody Bellinger?

97
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 3: Do you make a trade for schoobl I'm not gonna

98
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,119
Speaker 3: Oh god, I so badly want to overreact, like every

99
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 3: New York Mets fan that's, you know, pulling their hair out,

100
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 3: losing their minds, like you, Alonzo's gone and Diaz is gone.

101
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 3: But I look at it this way, man, it's we

102
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 3: don't know what the roster looks like.

103
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: If you told me you need some bait, you need

104
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: some bait. Because we said this yesterday, Rich, When you

105
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: lose Daz to the Dodgers for the chance to win

106
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: and play in LA and play with the greats, anyone

107
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: that was on the fence about staying or playing with

108
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: the Mets is gone. Pete Alonzo, He's like Daz is

109
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: out Oh, I play with this team all the pressure

110
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 1: of New York and no one appreciates me anyway, I'm out.

111
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: Now that Daz and Alonzo are out, it's even a

112
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: tougher pull to want to go there. So if I'm

113
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: Cody Bellinger now, or if I'm a big time reliever,

114
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I'm not sure. So that's the only

115
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: tough part here, Like they're gonna really have to open

116
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: up the wallet. I don't think they have a problem

117
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: doing that, but it does send up a red flag

118
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: a little bit to those guys, you know, weighing out

119
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: their options, that hey, maybe something is up with the Mets.

120
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: Maybe this isn't the place to be. Why are these

121
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: other people leaving now?

122
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 3: Steve Collen might be the best owner in baseball, but

123
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 3: what if Stearns is a guy that people really don't like.

124
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 3: So I heard Edwin Diaz, you know from my met sources,

125
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: that he was sort of mad, and a lot of

126
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 3: personnel was mad that they fired pitching coach Jeremy Hefner, who.

127
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 2: Was very well loved within the organization.

128
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 3: Those little things add up, and I don't know, I'm

129
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 3: not going to overreact until I see what the roster

130
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 3: looks like going into opening day because all of a sudden, listen,

131
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: if you get Tucker and you know Cody Bellinger and

132
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: you'd make a trade for school Bawl.

133
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 2: And there's still a lot to do.

134
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 3: But let me tell you the weakest start to the offseason,

135
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 3: as they call it, the hot stove. You lose Diaz

136
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 3: and Pete Alonso and all you have to show Ford

137
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 3: is oh, and you lost Nimo, who was a fan favorite.

138
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: I didn't care for Nimo, but you have three big

139
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 2: pieces gone.

140
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 3: But you know how you could look at it. You know,

141
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 3: those three guys didn't do Jack Diddley squad. They made

142
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 3: a one playoff run. And both of those guys have

143
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 3: been on the team for a while. So don't you

144
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 3: have to mix it up. When people say we're gonna

145
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 3: blow up the team right now, that's short of what

146
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 3: they're doing.

147
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: Right It's odd because you still got some big names,

148
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: but there's some really really big names also jumping ship.

149
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: It's a matter of what sort of moves they make

150
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: moving forward. But based on this, guys, big news today

151
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: again is a tough week for Mets fans, a tough

152
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: week for rich based on this and rich In La.

153
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,239
Speaker 1: Is there ever a reason? Is there ever a reason

154
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: for you rich as a fan to jump ship?

155
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 3: If there ever was, now would be it? I'm really

156
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 3: testing my Mets fandom. Do I really bleed blue and Orange?

157
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 3: I guess that jump ship?

158
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: Your dad went from Yankees to the Mets.

159
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: He did. My kids are like Dad, we like the Dodgers.

160
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 6: He's been part of me to the Mets. Why would

161
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 6: you do that? That's like jumping from the water into

162
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 6: a ship. That doesn't make sense, the reverse jumping ship.

163
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 2: You know why.

164
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 3: My mom's family were Mets fans, and I think my

165
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: dad just you know, oh, you know what it was.

166
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: My dad blames the Bronx.

167
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 3: My dad went to Fordham University in the Bronx and

168
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 3: got his car stolen two times. And he's like if

169
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 3: the Bronx af the Yankees, and he's like, and he

170
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 3: lives in Queens.

171
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 4: Carjackers.

172
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: You got to remember, Iowa, Sam.

173
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: I I'm switching teams for this.

174
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 3: Well, keep in mind the Mets were a new franchise

175
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 3: in the sixties. Keep that moving fresh start, you know, Dodgers, Blue, Giants, Orange.

176
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 3: A lot of people don't know that's how the Mets

177
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 3: got their colors two teams that left for the West Coast.

178
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 3: The Mets are blue and orange because of the Dodgers

179
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 3: and the Giants. And you know, Kamina, I love your

180
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 3: question because I think that might be one of the

181
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 3: answers when you say, is there any real reason to

182
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 3: ever ever leave a team? And I think franchises moving

183
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 3: might be one of the few exceptions. Like we have

184
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 3: buddies that are like, yeah, I used to be a

185
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 3: Rams fan, then they left another back and I'm like

186
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 3: f them, or you know, buddies we in Saint Louis,

187
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 3: Like I was a Rams fan, but then they left

188
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 3: Saint Louis. I'm not a Rams fan anymore. So maybe

189
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: that's a reason.

190
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: Well, we brought this up yesterday and we were talking

191
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: to Dan Bayer. You'll do anything for your kids, and

192
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: Rich is raising LA kids and they're growing up in

193
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: LA culture where sho Heyo Tani and Freddy Frehiman and

194
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: Mookie Bets and all these players are iconic and legendary.

195
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: All the kids in school are trading their cards and

196
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: wearing their jerseys, and his kids riches kids. They're all

197
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: excited about the Dodgers. And I mentioned that even the

198
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 1: corneius things. If your kids love them, you'll appreciate them

199
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: as their parent. All their goofy shows, all their little cartoons,

200
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: all of their little kiddies songs, all the things they

201
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: like are near and dear to you because you're their parent.

202
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: So I think if your kid is really showing a

203
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: lot of promise or a lot of fandom to a team,

204
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's okay. I'm just saying I could

205
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: see that being a catalyst for you to start embracing them.

206
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: And that is what's happening to you, whether you want

207
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: to admit it or not.

208
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a soft spot for the Dodgers, which

209
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: might be, you know, might be breaking like a man

210
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 3: sports rule or something. But I'm still a Mets fan.

211
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 3: I can't abandon this miserable franchise. But I gotta ask

212
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 3: you this if you're me, because I'll think I'll give

213
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 3: you my thoughts.

214
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 2: If you're me, and you hear that.

215
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 3: Diaz gets an offer from the Mets, and they told

216
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 3: Diaz and.

217
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,599
Speaker 2: There's wiggle room.

218
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 3: He goes to the Dodgers, doesn't even come back to

219
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 3: see what the Mets counter is.

220
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: He's like the an s guggle room.

221
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: Was it next to the clubhouse somewhere?

222
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that comes to the contract access to the

223
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 2: wiggle room.

224
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: He had his own bathroom and his own wiggle room.

225
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 3: Hey, and then you know, by the way, Cavido, he's

226
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 3: gonna be at a chuckles in Burbank this weekend.

227
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: Thank you, Danny G. Hey, I don't see the Fox

228
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: Sports radio hosts making those uh making those jokers taking

229
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: those chances.

230
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: Danny G.

231
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 3: I even saw that the Dodgers already started breaking out

232
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 3: the organ for Edwin DS day later.

233
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 2: Listen to this, I don't.

234
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: Feel like Danny G busted out the organ for DS.

235
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 4: Are you telling about the big triton cord?

236
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 2: Oh?

237
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, Manu Deeter rule the famous of course.

238
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 8: Uh.

239
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 7: He replaced the legendary organist at Dodger Stadium a decade

240
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 7: or so ago. And he's a friend of the show.

241
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 7: I know he listens to the network. Listen to how

242
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 7: he welcomed Edwin Diaz.

243
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: You know what's interesting about that, Danny G.

244
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna vomit on myself.

245
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 1: Did the Mets sort of give him that intro? Or

246
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: is that something he came up with on his own?

247
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: Because how does he take that showmanship over to Dodger Stadium?

248
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 1: Is that his?

249
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: Or is that the Dodger sort of? It's his?

250
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,599
Speaker 3: I wonder does he go with the timmy trumpets or

251
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 3: does he have the organ player do it? I he's

252
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 3: got to have the light show and everything. You guys,

253
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 3: Oh so disgusting. How the Dodgers get better? And that's

254
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 3: a problem. So let me let me go back to

255
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 3: my more.

256
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: Fun that what makes the Dodgers disgusting is that, well,

257
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: they have over a five hundred million dollar payroll, but

258
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: their superstars are likable, and this makes them even more

259
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,599
Speaker 1: likable and even more fun, Like, not only do you

260
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: got to show here Tani and everything else, but you

261
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: got this showmanship and the theatrics of Edwin Diaz coming

262
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: in from the bullpen.

263
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 3: It's insane your thoughts, and again, I don't want to

264
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 3: make this about my Mets, So make it about your team.

265
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 3: What could your team do? What could your team do

266
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 3: to have you possibly jump ship? And I have one answer,

267
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 3: based on Steve Cavino that I'm gonna throw out there,

268
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 3: and it's it's a little bit of a juicy, dirty one.

269
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 3: I'll get to that in a second. But let me

270
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: tell you about Edwin Diaz again. Back to your wiggle

271
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 3: room joke. Oh, he didn't even come back to the

272
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 3: Mets to see what that wiggle room was. He was

273
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 3: so quick to be like, all right, you know what,

274
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 3: I'm a dollar now, I'm a dodger. Pete Alonzo accepts

275
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: the five year, one point fifty five without even accepting

276
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 3: an offer from the Mets. What does that tell you

277
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 3: about what the Mets front office is doing right now?

278
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 2: They're very put off this show.

279
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 1: It also goes to show you that New York doesn't

280
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: have this mystique that it once had, and that's slowly

281
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: dwindling every year that goes by without a championship and

282
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 1: without the luster of just New York City. Man, I mean,

283
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: we're from there. Keep that in mind. We're from the

284
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: East Coast. We worked and built our career in Manhattan,

285
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 1: in New York City. It's sort of a down time

286
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: to be there and to play there, It really is.

287
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,319
Speaker 1: The expectations are high and for.

288
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 2: What I just heard that Grimace signed with the Phillies.

289
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 1: Oh man, it's tough week for the Mets fans.

290
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 3: Hey O, No, but I honestly, I might just have

291
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 3: to accept the fact that the Mets had a magical,

292
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 3: beautiful run two years ago with Timmy trumpets and Grimace

293
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 3: Hawk to a girl, Lindor and all the magic, and

294
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 3: that that might have just been a cool moment and

295
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 3: it might be another five to ten years when Steve

296
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 3: Cohen took over this team. Mets fans runder the illusion that, oh,

297
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 3: we're gonna be like the Dodgers and Yankees and Phillies

298
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 3: and teams that make it every year. And already it

299
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 3: looks like ass. And so if Peter A Lonzo come

300
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 3: you know, says I don't even want to see the

301
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 3: Mets offer, I'm going to the Orioles, and Edwin Diaz says,

302
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 3: I'm good. I don't even need to see the wiggle room.

303
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 3: What does that tell you about David Stearns. What does

304
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 3: that tell you about how the front office is rubbing people, or.

305
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: How maybe some of the other superstars are rubbing people,

306
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: or how they really feel about the organization. Like you said, Rich,

307
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: I'm getting a lot of feedback because based on this

308
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: Rich's terrible, horrible, no good, very bad.

309
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 2: Day want a jerk and we just don't know it.

310
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: Man, Maybe I'm getting feedback because the question is, well,

311
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: what would it take for you to jump ship from

312
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: your team and west from Vegas, west from Idaho? Says

313
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: if your team had a twenty year streak of suck,

314
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: I think you're allowed to jump ship. He's started giving

315
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: you the pass. Rich it's been a long time eighty six,

316
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: it's a long time ago.

317
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 2: I'm not doing it. You know, I told you my

318
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 2: son is going to be six.

319
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 3: Who if you watch yesterday show, my son Ben got

320
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 3: to play a little game on the air with us.

321
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: Ben is six.

322
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 3: Just put in perspective, that's how old I was when

323
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 3: the Mets won the World Series.

324
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: You're picking your nuts. Tell yeah, you were an under Russ.

325
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: Daniel Javier Fetz says, I was a Packers fan, and

326
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: when FARV left, I did too. I realized I was

327
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: more of a far fan than the actual Packers. And

328
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: if you're a kid and you feel that way, if

329
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: you're a kid like I kind of understand that. So

330
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: that was his reasoning for jumping ship. Let's see nature

331
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: boy Third says, DS probably got his own trumpet player

332
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: and he was like, yeah, I'm out, I got one.

333
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 3: That a reason to leave a team. Now, since I'm

334
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 3: having a rough day, rough week. And in addition to this,

335
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 3: not that you need to feel sad for me, looks

336
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 3: like my dog's in our final stages, jeez, which is

337
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: like miserable for the family, miserable for me, miserable.

338
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: Make it through the holidays, please, I don't think it's

339
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: gonna happen, really, yeah, man, So like's.

340
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 2: It's like a day to day thing.

341
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 3: So I'm like trying to explain to my kids, like,

342
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 3: you know, dogs don't live forever. And I'm like, on

343
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 3: top of that, my teams are falling apart. My wife's

344
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 3: out of town for a family emergency. Like it's been

345
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 3: an ass of a week, but I have a fun one.

346
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 3: So let me throw you under the bus for a second.

347
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 3: In the in the two thousands, when you and I

348
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 3: first became friends, you and a girlfriend dump you for

349
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 3: a guy on the New Jersey.

350
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 2: Nets True story, and then you had another girl dump

351
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 2: you for a New York Ranger.

352
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: True story, back to back. And by the way, they

353
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: weren't just like girlfriends I was dating. I was with

354
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: them for three four years at a time, each girl

355
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: like long term relationships, and it was not good for

356
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 1: the ego or confidence when I was living at mom's

357
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: house trying to make it in radio.

358
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 3: So my question is when you talk about reasons to

359
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 3: stop your fandom if your team sucks for decades, if

360
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 3: your team moves, what if your girl starts sleeping with

361
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 3: a dude on the team you root for?

362
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 2: Can you root for that? God? Can you root for

363
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: the team? Like? Can we know God forbid your ex

364
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 2: instead of a ranger?

365
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 3: What if all of a sudden she started banging Paul

366
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 3: O'Neal or something.

367
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, a warrior. There's no way I could

368
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: go back to What if all of a sudden you

369
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: found out your girl was having sleepover?

370
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 2: Was it Bernie Williams house.

371
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: I'd say that would burn baby burn. I'd say that

372
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: would be a legitimate reason. I'll tell you this from experience, dude,

373
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: and thanks for rubbing it in rich what a palky

374
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: tell you. I think that my days of going to

375
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: Nets games, at that primo time of my life, when

376
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 1: I had the time to do so, ended abruptly. Guess

377
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: who I stopped going to see? Guess whose team I

378
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: stopped watching? The New Jersey Nets. They are the New

379
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: Jersey Nets. At the time, it was just too tough.

380
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think those are legitimate reasons. I do

381
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: if you happen to be in that weird situation that

382
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 1: I was in. I had a streak of bad luck.

383
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: And by the way, you could chime in not only

384
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,080

393
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 8: what up A couple of things to me? It's like

394
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 8: one like, I mean, I'm a nineties kid on here

395
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 8: in La trading a favorite player. I'm in the minority

396
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 8: here with the Lakers. I was huge.

397
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: Nicka, Oh wait say that again. You were a huge

398
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:17,360
Speaker 1: What you were a huge?

399
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 4: Wen?

400
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 8: I was flushed and I know they brought in shit

401
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 8: out and they brought a Kobe, but it also brought

402
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 8: in a bunch of new casual fans and I didn't

403
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 8: like that. And also just moving change of locations. I

404
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 8: mean all the La Ram fan as a kid with

405
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,400
Speaker 8: jerown venice and everything, and when they up and moved

406
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 8: to Saint Louis, that just that was just crushing.

407
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 9: I mean, granted they.

408
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 8: Moved back, but honestly, it's just.

409
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 9: Not the same.

410
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: Hey, if your team moves, yeah, they left you, and

411
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: maybe a new team comes into town and and maybe

412
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: you embraced them, like I get that. And I think

413
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: the real subtle, behind the scenes reason Rich poses this question,

414
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: because we've asked this before, is because he's had such

415
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 1: a tough week and he seriously to baiting jumping on

416
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: ship and having fun with his kids and enjoying Los

417
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: Angeles to the state the city he lives in, and start

418
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: rooting for the Dodgers, and he's probably you're probably wondering,

419
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: that's what words in your mouth? How much flak will

420
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: give you as a lifelong Mets fan, buddy Ricky switching teams.

421
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 3: There's there's two levels to this. Yes, you guys bust

422
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 3: on my balls. As a big deterrent, absolutely right, I

423
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 3: would be a I would be a fraud, as as

424
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 3: Rob Parker would say, fraud fo gayzy.

425
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 4: I would be the.

426
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 3: Worst if I if I left the Mets. But then haul,

427
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 3: you know what happened to a Hall.

428
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 2: You know what happened.

429
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 3: If I left the Mets, They'd win a World Series

430
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 3: in the next five years and I would not be

431
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 3: able to really cheer for it.

432
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 6: No, Rich, come on, like, you will always just be

433
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 6: a Mets fan on the back burner. So if they

434
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 6: do ever get good, you could just go right back.

435
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 6: It's fine. You can't quit being a Mets fan.

436
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 1: You can't be a wishy washing then.

437
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 6: Then be going from Mets to the Dodgers is wishy washy.

438
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 6: So just stay with the Mets, you know, for them.

439
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 3: I have a buddy, Rob, a Brooklyn dude that lives

440
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 3: out here in La one of my buddies I play

441
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 3: softball with. He's the late forties, so he never saw

442
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 3: the Jets win anything. He was not born and you know,

443
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 3: he was born after nineteen sixty nine and.

444
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 2: He's been a lifelong Jets fan.

445
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 3: Two years ago he made a choice, and I was like,

446
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 3: because he's not the type that would He's sort of

447
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:27,640
Speaker 3: like a man's man.

448
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 2: He's like, Yo, this f the Jets. I'm done.

449
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 3: He's like, I live in LA I'm here for you know,

450
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 3: the last ten plus years. I'm a Chargers guy now,

451
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 3: and I'm like, for really goes. I like Jim Harbaugh,

452
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 3: you know, justin Herbert's cool fit. Yo, I'm done with

453
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 3: the Jets.

454
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: I go for Really, He's like, yep, is that just

455
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: a conscious decision? You could just start liking things because

456
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: you decided to. I don't know. There's gotta be more

457
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: to it, you know, I'm thinking about it.

458
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 4: Rich.

459
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: What could really make you jump ship to is your

460
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 1: love of certain players, Meaning like if you were young

461
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: enough to appreciate Jordan in the nineties, and let's say

462
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: you were a kid from New York, you could easily

463
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: went from the Knicks to the Bulls because of his

464
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: super stardom. Shoaho Tani, he's getting fancy.

465
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 3: What about the people? What about the people that jump

466
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 3: on and they don't stay on? Like, for instance, I

467
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 3: jumped on the Niners as a kid because my dad

468
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 3: thought Joe Montana and probably still think Shoe Montana was

469
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 3: the coolest dude ever.

470
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: He wasn't wrong. So as a kid, I can see

471
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: you saying, hell, yeah he is.

472
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 3: So my dad's like, oh, I love Montana, so do you.

473
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 3: He bought me a little Montana jersey. So I was

474
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 3: never a front runner. Yeah they were good, but I

475
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 3: was a five year old kid. The same way my

476
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 3: son's like Freddie and Mookie, and.

477
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 2: You know, I love Montana.

478
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: You love Hannah Montana.

479
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 2: I love her too.

480
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 3: My least celebrating twenty years of Hannah Montana next year. See,

481
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 3: I know all Montana told you so cove. Joe Montana

482
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 3: was the way that I got into the Niners, and

483
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 3: I've loved him through Steve Young, Jeff Garcia, Kaepernick, you know,

484
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 3: Jimmy G.

485
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: Brock Purty. You know, my dad doesn't love them as

486
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 2: much as I do. My dad likes the Niners.

487
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 3: But my dad's like, I love Montana now like he does,

488
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 3: he does not love him as much as I do.

489
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: I said, Joe Montagna because he caught you at a

490
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 1: very easily influential life.

491
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 3: I'm saying that's sort of how some people were like

492
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 3: I love Jordan the Bulls, and then when Jordan retired, like, yeah,

493
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 3: I guess I like the Bulls.

494
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 2: I suppose you.

495
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 1: Know, like you know, but I'm just trying to of

496
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: reasons that you would jump and a superstar that transcends

497
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: the game, could really you win could be the answer.

498
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: I don't get though.

499
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 6: I mean, maybe it's because I grew up a college

500
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 6: football fan where the turnovers every four years, But like,

501
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 6: I don't get this whole rooting for a player and

502
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 6: where he goes on the team, Like you.

503
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 4: Either root for the team or you don't.

504
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: The whole rooting for players thing is a very gen

505
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: z thing to do.

506
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 3: My brother, who's younger than me, was a little influential

507
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 3: kid when Mookie Wilson, Remember Mookie Wilson, he got from

508
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 3: the Mets of the blue Jays. My brother didn't become

509
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 3: a Blue Jays fan, but I remember there was a

510
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 3: year where he bought a blue Jay's hat and he's.

511
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 2: Like, oh with Mookie, And I was like, what do

512
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: you like the blue Jays Now? He's like, I love

513
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 2: Mookie Wilson, So listen, I get it. One last thing.

514
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 3: I know we're running late, but when I was watching

515
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 3: Monday night football Eagles, Chargers, Danny G it doesn't strike you,

516
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 3: being that you're a longtime LA guy. When I see

517
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 3: all those people like emphatically cheer for the Chargers. I

518
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 3: almost feel like their plants like that woman from a

519
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 3: couple of years ago, because I'm like, who really likes

520
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 3: the Chargers in LA?

521
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 2: Like, how do you just pick up a team? That's

522
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 2: what I get what Kevin I's saying that.

523
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 6: Rich, how did your buddy go from rooting for the

524
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 6: Jets and then rooting for a team who has never

525
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 6: won a Super Bowl in the Chargers? Like you actually

526
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 6: picked like a team that's like kind of on the

527
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 6: same level as the Jets in a lot of ways.

528
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 2: There's a lot of layers here, a lot of layers here.

529
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it has to happen organically. I don't

530
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 1: think you could wake up one day and say, you

531
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: know what today's today, I decide to root for Chargers. Also,

532
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: that's weird to me.

533
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 7: Also, Covino, your boy CC Sabathia. A couple of months ago,

534
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 7: after a bad Raider loss, Don't ask me which one,

535
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 7: he posted on social media picture of him, his mom

536
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 7: and sister outside of the Oakland Coliseum back in the day,

537
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 7: and he said, I know that wins are really important

538
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 7: to all of us, but some things with our teams

539
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 7: are more important. Than wins and losses, like my family

540
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 7: and our traditions and everything culture, all my memories of

541
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,439
Speaker 7: my family and our team together.

542
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, man. And when you have culture like that,

543
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: like the Raiders fans do, I don't think you could

544
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 1: ever jump ship. Look. Rich is prisoner of the moment.

545
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 1: It's a sad week. He's got a heavy heart. His

546
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 1: Doggie's sick, he's losing a player.

547
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 2: He's on it.

548
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 3: My Doggi's on our deathbed. And the Met's are getting

549
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 3: rid of all their players. What am I gonna do

550
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: with my Shaye Stadium snow globe around the holidays?

551
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,000

633
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,560

635
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,920

640
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: It's a really bad week. You're losing your superstars, and

641
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: it's it's extra hurtful when you made all the other

642
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: moves to make it better, you know, again the big

643
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,120

Speaker 2: Listen?

652
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 11: I feel like if you got a side team or

653
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 11: a secondary team, you don't even have a team. And

654
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 11: this is coming from an Atlanta Falcons Atlanta Hawks fan.

655
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 3: Like I could have, I would.

656
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 4: I'm fifty years old. I would have traded him forty

657
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 4: years ago if I could. I just couldn't do it.

658
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 4: And I hate to.

659
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 11: Mix two stories together, Cavino, but I would give.

660
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 4: Anybody on the team my girl for a championship for

661
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,600

Speaker 2: Yo, he had all that.

663
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 3: Over, he would tell White to go ahead with Michael

00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 3: Pennick Junior for menta super Bowl Camino, crazy enough, our

665
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 3: buddy Donnie Pompadoor, who listens. He recently said, damn you,

666
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 3: Michael Vick for pulling me into this Falcons team, because

667
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 3: now I can't now, like all these years later, they suck,

668
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 3: like you can't leave.

669
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: Who else we got, Danny g Let's go to Vegas. Larry, Hey, Larry.

670
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 11: Larry, what's going on now?

671
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 1: Anybody?

672
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 6: Yo?

673
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 11: Hey, this is what I said. It's a lot of

674
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 11: people in Vegas. They're getting passes because we never had

675
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 11: a professional NFL team, no, a major league team coming,

676
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 11: so a lot of people had teams like the Giants

677
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 11: or whatever. But now that the Raiders here, they was

678
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 11: like they're giving them passes like and I'm like, I'm

679
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 11: fifty three, bro, I'm from the old school. I'm a

680
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 11: Buffalo Bills and it's to the cast gets dropped. But

681
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 11: you got people in Vegas that are literally think it's okay, here's.

682
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: The difference to ever happen. Larry respect Larry dude, but

683
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: he's rooting for the Bills. The Bills are a great team.

684
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: What if you root for the Jets and you're you're

685
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: in Vegas. Isn't this a perfect like pivot moment to

686
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,719
Speaker 1: maybe say, you know, maybe it's time. There's some exceptions.

687
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 3: I feel the reason I'm staying with the Mets no

688
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 3: matter what is because I feel what Larry said. When

689
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 3: you see Vegas Raiders fans or like I said, Chargers

690
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 3: fans in LA, it's like, what did you do a

691
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 3: couple of years ago? Now, all of a sudden, you

692
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 3: go justin Herbert like it feels full gazy.

693
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: You had out enough for a week ass team.

694
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 4: You're happy.

695
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: But you know that is a unique situation that I'd

696
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: have to hear you out. I'm not a fan of

697
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: leaving your team, but I'd have to hear that one out.

698
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: Who else you got, dannyj.

699
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 4: Let's go to Charlotte and it's Tracy, Tracy, what's up?

700
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 12: Hey? Hey, you guys love your showy caller, longtime listener,

701
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 12: and I think everybody's fan experience can be defined by them.

702
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 12: They just have to deal with whatever the consequences of

703
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 12: their decisions. So I changed teams. I grew up forty

704
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 12: nine Ers fan New York Man's fans, and I moved

705
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 12: to Charlotte in nine ninety six, my first time I

706
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 12: ever lived in a city with a football team. I

707
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 12: grew up in a small town. Take the forty nine

708
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 12: Ers because of Joe Montana, because somebody gave me a

709
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 12: jersey when I was five years old, and I chose

710
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 12: conscious decision to embrace this team that was local. They

711
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 12: were brand new. I think it was the year after

712
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 12: they started. And I have lived with those Panthers for

713
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 12: thirty years and it has been a lot of good

714
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 12: times and mostly miserable times.

715
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 3: Man, you know you remind us of our friend Drew

716
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 3: in Nashville. You guys know our bud, Drew mack Cavino.

717
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 3: He's a lifelong Colts fan, but he lives in Nashville

718
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 3: and he sort of runs things in Nashville.

719
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 2: His kids loved the Titans. Listen, not that they're good

720
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 2: this year, but he.

721
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: Had season tickets to the Titans, and he's like, I

722
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 3: know they're in the same division, so it's even more wonky,

723
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 3: but he has a soft spot for the Titans.

724
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: It happens, all right, So I do have a final thought,

725
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: Jerry Springer's style. We got one more phone call on this,

726
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,120

733
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,760

734
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 5: that Moore had an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.

735
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,360

745
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 4: been very supportive, you know. I think my younger children

746
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 4: are most excited.

747
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 11: They're excited because they don't remember dad playing.

748
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 3: You know.

749
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 10: My six year old actually asked me, like four months ago, Dad.

750
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 4: Why don't you play anymore? And I'm like, God, I'm sorry.

752
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 4: you know. But I think share the same sentiment, a

753
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,840

Speaker 5: Gino Smith of the Raiders likely to miss their game

759

00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,560

Speaker 3: didn't come back for the counter offer, the quote wiggle

779
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 3: room and Pete Alonzo gets the offer from the Orioles

780
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 3: and doesn't even entertain like Scott Boris doesn't even sit

781
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 3: down with Cohen and Sterns, Like, what does that tell

782
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 3: you what's going on within the Mets.

783
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: That things ain't right? I mean it does. The writing's there,

784
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,919
Speaker 1: and Rich, I'm hoping to get a little wiggle room

785
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,800
Speaker 1: in our next Fox Sports Radio contract. It sounds fun,

786
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,320
Speaker 1: all right. So, like I said, a Jerry Springer final

787
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 1: thought and the rest of your phone calls plus Midweek

788
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: Major and more right here on Fox Sports Radio, Covino

789
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 1: and Rich, Well, the holidays came early for the Dodgers.

790
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 1: Seems like the Dodgers had little more wiggle room.

791
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 2: And DS did even come back. He didn't even come

792
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 2: back to see what the wiggle room was.

793
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: That's okay, because they're all dancing at Dodger Stadium to

794
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: two in a room. Wiggle it just a little bit

795
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: because they're going through the World Series again with Edwin

796
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: Diaz and of course Pete Alonso is also gone today.

797
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: So I'm Cavino. That is rich to said Mets fan

798
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 1: Danny g. Sam Spotty's getting ready for Midweek Major. Dan

799
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 1: Byers here in his time for our tire rack play

800
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: of the day, It was all Nicks in Toronto. Town's

801
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: top of the key met bi Perdol who was ready

802
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: for the trailer.

803
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:37,399
Speaker 4: Three bek.

804
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 2: They hand up the bridges lane opens up on the

805
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,240
Speaker 2: left side and he stuffed it with the right hand.

806
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 10: Karl Anthony Towns mugging for the camera underneath the left

807
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 10: side basket.

808
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: New York advances in the Cup quarterfinal and now take

809
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 1: on Orlando in the semifinals. That's courtesy the Knicks Radio

810
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: Network and that was our tire Rack Play of the Day.

811
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: For over forty years, tyrack'smen helping customers find the right

812
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,760
Speaker 1: tires for how, what and where they drive. Shipped fast

813
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 1: and free back by free Road has a protection with

814
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tyraq dot coma

815
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:08,439
Speaker 1: tire buying should be.

816
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 2: Man, there's some sad Nicks and Mets fan out there

817
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 2: being like, well, I guess at least the Knicks are

818
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 2: still in the Cup.

819
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: The Cup embarrassing, well, rich, uh, you know the question

820
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 1: based on Alonso now leaving Diaz an Alonzo left the

821
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: Mets this week. It's tough. I think here's my prediction.

822
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: If the question is when's it okay to leave your team?

823
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 1: You're an old school sort of guy, and you have

824
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: an old school way of thinking, And I feel like

825
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,919
Speaker 1: our generation was a little more loyal. But today these

826
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 1: pros ain't loyal. These pros are not loyal. They jump

827
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 1: ship and they played for those teams. As this younger

828
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: generation comes up, you think they're going to be loyal

829
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: to teams. They're not loyal to their own relationships. They're

830
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,919
Speaker 1: not loyal to their own marriages. How fickle are young

831
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: people in today's life? In today's world of dating, someone

832
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 1: gave you the ick because they jumped over a puddle

833
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: funny and you broke up with them. You think those

834
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: type of people care about loyalty. I think based on this,

835
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,439
Speaker 1: based on the way sports is moving, we're gonna see

836
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 1: this happening more and more often. There's no loyalty when

837
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: it comes to this stuff moving forward.

838
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 3: Could I wrap it up by saying, just over the

839
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 3: last twenty years, I've seen that sentiment. Because your brother

840
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 3: who's thirty year old, dude younger, your younger brother significantly younger.

841
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 3: He'll wear like an a's hat because he's like, yo,

842
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 3: it's green and it matches my sneakers. Dude, I like

843
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 3: the aies. I guess he'll wear He'll wear other teams

844
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 3: apparel because it looks cool. You would never.

845
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: Never, never look Lisa even said loyalty is a dying

846
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: trait in general. So as these younger people come up

847
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 1: that means nothing to them. They're like, yeah, I like

848
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 1: the Yankees, but I also like this team, Or I

849
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: like the Yankees, but they govern my favorite players.

850
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 2: So now I like the Mits.

851
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: Like I think, based on the mindset of younger people

852
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: on their come up, is gonna be more and more

853
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: common as time goes on.

854
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna get to a lot of NFL football

855
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,919
Speaker 3: for the rest of the show. But Cavino final thought,

856
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 3: are you shocked at Pete Alonzo didn't even even even

857
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 3: for maybe even uh optics at least hear the Mets out.

858
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 3: Is that weird to you? I think it's odd that

859
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:16,879
Speaker 3: he didn't even hear them out.

860
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that just goes to show you that his mind

861
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 1: was set, his mind was made up already. Danny g

862
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: we got one more call.

863
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,919
Speaker 7: Yeah, let's wrap it with Michael in Canada. He's calling

864
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 7: for Montreal jumping shiit, Mike, what's up?

865
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,560

00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,840

869
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 3: gonna talk a little expos right.

870
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 9: No, believe it or not, I'm not. I'm not heartbroken

871
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 9: that the team's been gone. It's crazy that we even

872
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 9: had one here. Drive by the stadium all the time.

873
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 9: It's the probably the ugliest building in our in our

874
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 9: fair city. But I grew up my When I was

875
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 9: nine years old, my mom brought me to a sports

876
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 9: store and bought me a hat out of a discounted bin,

877
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 9: a corduroy purple hat with a minute to Vikings logo

878
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 9: on it. And I have a Vikings fan for the

879
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,479
Speaker 9: last forty five years because of it. And well, yeah,

880
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 9: you know, they break my heart every every year. It's

881
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 9: getting worse by the day here this year. And I

882
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 9: always joke with my buddies if ever you need Vikings

883
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 9: gear and you can't find it online, and call me

884
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 9: up because I've got it all. But I don't know

885
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 9: what to do now. You know, I'm stuck with this

886
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 9: team forever. My kids have got the affliction and they

887
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 9: all make fun of me for it.

888
