1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that Chuck Norris was chasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex. The

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: rex was not chasing the jeep. Murray, Murray, you there.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: You love sandwiches? Huh, Let's go to eighty.

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 2: It was bo.

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: Wow that Prime Time baby. I had a crush on

6
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: Betty Rubbell.

7
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 3: I honestly, until after the segment ended and we went

8
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 3: to commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan Coachman was black.

9
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: He cast them the game last night, although they won

10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: the game.

11
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,200
Speaker 3: You're listening just to Gatson Company pleased to have Salakana

12
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,599
Speaker 3: back with us. Check out his podcast wherever you get

13
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,639
Speaker 3: your podcast. New episodes are out right now. I saw

14
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 3: one this morning.

15
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: Sal How about that?

16
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, we do one every day of the week. So

17
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: it's a lot of work, but it's a lot of

18
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 2: fun as well.

19
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: Are you enjoying it?

20
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 2: I'm getting there, I think, well, to be honest, you know,

21
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 2: I love radio and how much I put into radio,

22
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 2: and then I think there is an adjustment to do.

23
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 2: It's just different when you're not live and figuring it

24
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 2: out on top of a grinding TV schedule. I'm just

25
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: trying to I'm getting there, and baseball is going to

26
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: make it easier. Because I love talking about baseball and

27
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 2: reacting to the games. But I don't know if I

28
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 2: could say that I love it yet as much as

29
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 2: I love doing radio, i'mtill trying to get acclimated. Did

30
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 2: it take me a while to do it?

31
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 3: It took me a while, yes, But so I think

32
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 3: what you're missing is just the high wire act that

33
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 3: is live radio, the ability to take phone calls, get

34
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 3: feedback to what it is you are saying. And yes,

35
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 3: those are some of the things I miss.

36
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: But I was more.

37
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 3: Prepared for it because Dan and I hadn't taken a

38
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 3: phone call for like seven years, and so I just knew,

39
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 3: like I knew how to fill time and fill it

40
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 3: pretty easily. But it is antiseptic. It feels lonely. It

41
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 3: feels like there's nothing. There's no one to talk to

42
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 3: other than Taylor. That's it for me, right.

43
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: So I have my guy, my producer, a Bottle Booms,

44
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 2: and even him, I was like, I didn't know if

45
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: he was gonna be any good or not. I mean,

46
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 2: he's trying to help me out behind the scenes. So

47
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 2: that's the other part of it. I could go for ten, fifteen,

48
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 2: twenty minutes on my own but that I want to

49
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: hear one person talking for twenty minutes. Also is the

50
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: interaction with him working. He's a twenty two year old kid,

51
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: like it's not sure. Essentially he's learning too so but

52
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 2: it's been fun.

53
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, has he been good? Is he getting better?

54
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: What's going on there?

55
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: It doesn't seem like you're terribly confident in your producer here.

56
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 2: I actually do love him. He's better than I thought

57
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: on the air. I didn't care about that. I didn't

58
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 2: want to bring him in because beyond the air stuff.

59
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 2: Although I'm learning how important that is, because you use

60
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 2: Taylor or Mikey like you need. I don't want to

61
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: talk to myself. I want to talk to somebody else.

62
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 2: It's boring talking to myself. I did that, I did

63
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 2: it for twenty years. I don't want to do that anymore.

64
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 2: So it is important. I do think he's definitely getting better.

65
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: I have to, you know, scold him a little bit.

66
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 2: He's a twenty two year old kid, but he's definitely

67
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 2: getting better.

68
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 4: Yes, Stude, it seems like bottle Boom's' biggest problem. When

69
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 4: I listened to the Salacada show, Sao will ask him

70
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 4: a question and bottle booms. Will talk about anything but

71
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 4: the question that sound just asked me.

72
00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 1: I love him. You get him on the pod, he

73
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: doesn't listen.

74
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 2: I go no, no, no, no, Like, don't think about what you

75
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: were going to say. Answer the freaking question. Like it's

76
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 2: very simple, just listen and have a conversation.

77
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, but sometimes he'll derail it and take you to

78
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 3: a very special place.

79
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: It's Billy Gill. He's Billy Gil.

80
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 3: Billy Gill never listened to a word I said and

81
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 3: just took the show wherever the fuck he wanted to.

82
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: That's exactly what he's doing.

83
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 3: Sometimes I cannot believe. I'm a Yankee fan and a

84
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: Mets fan here at sal Taylor.

85
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: Do you agree with this? Feels like there's gonna be

86
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: a Subway series.

87
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 4: Man, those two teams in their first two games. Yeah,

88
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 4: it's hard to find teams that look better than them.

89
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,839
Speaker 3: It's one of one sixty two, I mean, but it's

90
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 3: not unrealistic.

91
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: I mean the Yankees, especially in the American League. The

92
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 2: Yankees are always great. They were in the World twos

93
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. I don't think anybody's a

94
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 2: real threat. The Mets would be the hard part because

95
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 2: they always lose. But I would take out the favorite.

96
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 2: It's come on two in a row? Ready, they get

97
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: really gonna win three in a row? I don't know

98
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: about the.

99
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 3: Mets would be the hard part because of the Dodgers.

100
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 3: I would say the Mets can get there. The Mets

101
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 3: can get to the playoffs. It's just the Dodgers are overwhelming,

102
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: you know.

103
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: Right, But at some point, I'm a low of averages guy.

104
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 2: At some point, like they've already won two and you

105
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: give them credit. They always gonna be the best team

106
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: on paper. They spend the money, they have, the guys,

107
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 2: they developed players. Some point, the favorite's gonna get knocked off,

108
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: and then why not the Mets outside. So if I

109
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 2: eliminate the Dodgers from the equation, which is the obvious,

110
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 2: the Mets have as good a chance, if not better

111
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 2: than anybody out the Phillies, the Cubs, the Braves, the Giants,

112
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 2: whoever you throw it in.

113
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: Ye Stu, I was.

114
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 4: I was sitting at home watching the Yankee game, and

115
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 4: in a moment of transparency with the audience, I was like,

116
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 4: I've been complaining a lot about this Yankee team this offseason,

117
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 4: and then I'm watching the game, and I'm like, man,

118
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 4: this Yankee team is pretty good.

119
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 1: They're always good. Tailor.

120
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 2: I mean, I was telling texta tailor, hey, leave my

121
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: guy Booty alone here. He was all upset in the beginning,

122
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 2: then he's fired off after the Yankees go on that barrage.

123
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: They're good. And wouldn't it be ironic that in the offseason,

124
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: like two years ago they traded for Sodo. So it's like, hey,

125
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: Yankees got Soto. Last year was they lose Soto? But

126
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: then plan B pivot Freed and Bellinger and others. Everybody

127
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: loved that and Devin Williams. This year it's like, hey,

128
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 2: they didn't do anything. They stay status quo, stay in

129
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: the course, running it back. This will be the year

130
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 2: where fans complain about the off season, but watch the

131
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 2: Yankees go out there and win the World Series.

132
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: It's interesting.

133
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 3: So you were telling me before we started recording here,

134
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 3: I didn't watch Opening Day. We were on the air

135
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 3: during Mets Opening Day, and so I just became aware

136
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 3: of the box national anthem and a bird dying in

137
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 3: the outfield.

138
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 2: So can you explain it?

139
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 3: Because you were telling me before and I couldn't really

140
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 3: pay attention because we were doing a live radio show.

141
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 2: Well, think about it. If the Mets go down to

142
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 2: nothing and they're facing pole schemes, you have the guy

143
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 2: butcher the anthem. If you haven't heard that, I didn't

144
00:05:59,440 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 2: see a lot.

145
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: I saw it on and I.

146
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: Saw it on social media. It was as bad. He

147
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 2: just he forgot the words and he saw to repeat words.

148
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 2: So a botch anthem down to nothing against Skeens, and

149
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 2: then a bird fell on the album. I don't know

150
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: how that one happened, but I just know there was

151
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: a dead bird and the crowd is chanting a young

152
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 2: Carson Bench making his major league debut to pick it up,

153
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 2: Pick it up, pick it up. He said after the game.

154
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 2: I want nothing to do with that dead bird, and

155
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 2: I don't blame him. But the Mets overcame all those

156
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 2: things and still one. Maybe it's their year.

157
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: They overcame a terrible national anthem, a bird dying in

158
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 3: the outfield.

159
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: And Skens.

160
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, definite in early deficits to Skeens that if that

161
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 2: isn't a sign, ste I don't know what is.

162
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: You know what sold.

163
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 4: So there's so much hype around Carson Bench. Take me

164
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 4: through your viewing experience when you watch him hit that

165
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 4: home run and kind of validate the reasons why the

166
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 4: Mets called him up and named him their starting outfielder.

167
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 2: Here's what I want. I want to say, though, like

168
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 2: fans already, I was getting tax legit. I got two

169
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 2: texts from Met fans yesterday. This is after the initial

170
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: they're down to nothing, the season's over. It was they

171
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 2: should retire Bene's number when they retire Beltron's number, and

172
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: the other one saying that Ben is the new Alonso.

173
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 2: Forget Pete Alonso. Now Bene is the homegrown guy. There's

174
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: always that over inflation of the homegrown guy. What I

175
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 2: saw was he mistracked two balls in the outfield. He

176
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: looked like he more belongs on your softball team than

177
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 2: he did with the New York Mets. On those two

178
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 2: Luckily they both went over the fence, so it didn't matter.

179
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 2: He struck out his first two at bats, but then

180
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 2: he started to gain composure. He walked and then hit

181
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: that laser beam home run.

182
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: So I like that.

183
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 2: You saw growth from a rookie within one individual game.

184
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: I'm not ready to say he's gonna be great yet.

185
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 2: By the way, he's also the eight hitter. So the

186
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 2: Mets doing the right thing by not throwing him to

187
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 2: the Wolves, saying he's going to be the savior and

188
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 2: hit third or fourth or whatever. It may be. The

189
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: fact that he could be eighth kind of fly under

190
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 2: the radar and grew even within his first game. I

191
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: think those are.

192
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 4: Good signs to New York. Doesn't do is taper expectations.

193
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 4: So when I'm watching Carson Binge, I'm thinking how the

194
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 4: Mets fan must be feeling.

195
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: And that's how I came up with this song for

196
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: said Carson Binge, Oh really okay.

197
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 5: First pitch, bench hits it in the air to right

198
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 5: field fairly deep. O hernback hit the wall and it's God.

199
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 5: He headed off the canopy and the right field bullpen.

200
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 5: Carson Binge makes his first major league hit, a home run.

201
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 5: Congratulations to Carson Beinge as he gets an enthusiastic pat

202
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 5: on the back from the third base coach Tim Leeper,

203
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,959
Speaker 5: an aggressive fist month from Francisco Alvarez, and they're.

204
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: Willing to congratulate the kid.

205
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 5: And the Mets dugout Carson being his first major league's

206
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 5: knock ken homer, and the Mets take a ten to

207
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 5: five me.

208
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 6: Benge the mets Stone need to look no more. We

209
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 6: just found while we were looking for.

210
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 7: With the swing nicolarone. He'll crush it in the zone

211
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:24,359
Speaker 7: and you might bench will see you've got us filled.

212
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 2: With clean.

213
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 7: Benge.

214
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 6: You sent that fall into the end.

215
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 2: Benge.

216
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 7: You crushed that thing up out of that. If you

217
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 7: check out Benjisty line, you will like what you find.

218
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 7: The holye will soon know it's.

219
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 2: Bench in one.

220
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: So it is beautiful, your fucking producer, do that? I mean,

221
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: I got that.

222
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 2: I got to put bottle booms to work. Oh my god, man,

223
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: so bad.

224
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: It's good.

225
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: Not what I was expecting.

226
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 3: I mean, I want that on the radio show and

227
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 3: a loop today.

228
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 2: Put the lighters up, of course, put the lighters up.

229
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 3: What did you make of what'd you make ano they're

230
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 3: getting killed of the Netflix coverage at NBC.

231
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: I guess I don't care about this stuff. I know

232
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: others do.

233
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: Most people just care about the fucking games my team

234
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 3: they're playing on, what channel? I'll be there when the

235
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 3: game starts. But what did you make of the Netflix

236
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 3: coverage of Opening Night?

237
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 2: I'm more in line with you that I try not

238
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 2: to care about these things. Actually I didn't even the

239
00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 2: score bug was a big issue. I didn't realize it.

240
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 2: Taylor texts me, He's like, dude, the score bull. You

241
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 2: need a magnifying glass to see what's going on. My

242
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 2: issue with the Netflix was that. And it's not just Netflix,

243
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 2: like we get they're going to promote themselves, right, but

244
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 2: it felt like it was just an infomercial as opposed

245
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 2: to a baseball game. It was a commercial for Netflix

246
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 2: and then a baseball game going on. So there was

247
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 2: some like I don't want to be man Dog Grusso

248
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: and old man yelling at the clouds just to go

249
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 2: nuts about it. I just care about watching the game.

250
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 2: I don't like the fact though, that they forced so

251
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 2: much stuff down our throat outside of the game. I'm

252
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 2: a purist. I want to just watch the baseball game.

253
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 3: I understand that. But they paid for the right to

254
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 3: do whatever the fuck they want. I mean, and that's

255
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 3: the deal. And Rob Manford, you can kill them all

256
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 3: you want, but his job is to grow the game,

257
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 3: to grow the money around the game, to grow the pie.

258
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 3: And Netflix is paying so much money and they're not

259
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 3: getting a ton They're really not when you look at

260
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 3: it at Rob Manford.

261
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: Say what you will about him. I know a lot

262
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: of people don't like.

263
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 3: Him, but he has done a tremendous job as the

264
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 3: commissioner of Major League Baseball.

265
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: Baseball is thriving in every possible.

266
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 3: Way, including the television rights, which you know, and streaming rights,

267
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 3: which are vastly important to the business of Major League

268
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 3: Baseball in any sport for that matter.

269
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 2: Manford might have been my biggest issue with the broadcast

270
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: because it really didn't have anything to do with like

271
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 2: the bells and whistles or whatever they were shoving down

272
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: our throw like people go nuts about Jamis Winston. I

273
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 2: thought he was maybe the most entertaining part of the game.

274
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 2: The game was a snooze fest after the Yanks scored

275
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 2: those runs early, but they had Manford in the booth

276
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 2: for half an inning and they didn't even get anything

277
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: out of them. And that's maybe less on Manford and Netflix,

278
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 2: although it's on the announcers there that were in the booth.

279
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 2: But I'm with you more inline with you, Stu. I'm

280
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 2: not gonna go nuts about it. It's one game, and

281
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 2: you're right. Netflix can do what they want. They paid

282
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 2: for the rights. They're going to promote the hell out

283
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 2: of their product.

284
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 3: Yes, it's their rights, not yours. People, they can do

285
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 3: with them what they will. Go ahead, Taylor.

286
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 4: So when I'm watching that Yankees season opener in San Francisco,

287
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 4: they always cut to the kayaking and McCovey cove, and

288
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 4: I'm watching that thinking that's not something I think I

289
00:12:59,160 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 4: would ever want to do.

290
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 2: It doesn't look appealing at all. Meanwhile, it's always cold.

291
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 2: It's always freezing cold out there. You can't see anything.

292
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 2: I mean, kayaking for me in general not good. Kayaking

293
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 2: at a ball game really seems ridiculous. And Marry Bounds

294
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: isn't playing. You aren't getting those those you know, mccuffy

295
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 2: cove shots out there, but so many people still do it.

296
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 2: I think it's insane.

297
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think what we're railing against, as you

298
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 3: pointed out, sal is just.

299
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,119
Speaker 1: The idea of kayaking.

300
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter where it is, mccoffey Cove, any cove.

301
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 3: I don't care what covid is. I don't want to kayak.

302
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 3: It looks a golf thing. Write too much work. I

303
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 3: take a boat. You want to go on a boat

304
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:44,239
Speaker 3: in mcuvey cove, Sign me up. The kayaking little speedboat

305
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 3: around the cove.

306
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: So much easier.

307
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't want to fucking work to catch

308
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 3: a baseball.

309
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 2: I mean, seriously, that's one of those things. I think

310
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 2: you do it just to say you did it, not

311
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: really for the injury. Who's enjoying that is?

312
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 3: So when you drop that story out at a bar

313
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 3: that you kayak McCovey cove, who the fuck is impressed

314
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 3: with that?

315
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 2: It's a good point. I saw this morning on social media.

316
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 2: The Yankee like Meredith Moroccovitch who does the games on Yes,

317
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 2: Susan Waldman does the games obviously legendary voice on the fan.

318
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: They're out there.

319
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 2: Taking pics to getting ready to kayak in McCovey comb

320
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 2: Come on, it's like the thing to do if you

321
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 2: go to a game. Want no part of that.

322
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's so funny.

323
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 3: I always questioned the people, even when Bonds was hitting

324
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: the home runs out there, I questioned the people, like,

325
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 3: why are you doing this? It cannot be that important

326
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 3: for you to grab a baseball to be on television

327
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 3: that you're willing to not go to the game and

328
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 3: kayak around the cove waiting for a ball to drop it.

329
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: It's fucking sad get a life.

330
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 4: That st you mentioned saying it to somebody in a bar.

331
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 4: That would be one of the lamest things you could

332
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 4: say to somebody in a bar.

333
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 2: The other one I.

334
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: Saw recent amount I means the other and I saw.

335
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 4: Recently when it comes to a bar, was John Rothstein,

336
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 4: the college basketball reporter. Dylan Darling hits the buzzer beater

337
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 4: for Saint John's Kansas, John roth sweets out, Dylan Darling

338
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 4: will never have to pay for another drink in New

339
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 4: York City ever again. And now I'm imagine Dylan Darling

340
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 4: going to a bar being like, Hey, I'm Dylan Darling

341
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 4: from Saint John's and a bartender going, I don't give

342
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 4: a fuck who's walk.

343
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: But I kayak around the code.

344
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 2: Yeah who, Maybe Dylan Darling that's kayaking the code that

345
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: it wasn't even a big game, like the big deal

346
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: to go to the Sweet sixty. If Dylan Darling did

347
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 2: that in the NCAA Final, he'd be having to pay

348
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 2: for drinks probably the next month in New York. Nobody

349
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 2: knows who Dylan Darling is. Let alone the Sweet Sea.

350
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 3: He's still getting He's still getting carted at bars.

351
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 2: That's a little bit of a reach.

352
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 3: He's never paying for a drink to get in New

353
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 3: York City. New York City, don't give a fuck.

354
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I average judge hit sixty three home runs,

355
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 2: Yankees pull on the next game the Yankee fish. Boy,

356
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 2: you think we care about Dylan Darling and a worthless

357
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: bucket did to get to the Sweet sixteen?

358
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 3: Come on, yeah, nobody, nobody cares. He's paying for drinks

359
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 3: forever unless he does than that.

360
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: It was funny. I was laughing with Taylor yesterday.

361
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 3: Because Skeen's got bombed, and I was laughing at the

362
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 3: fact that people are going to start questioning Skeen's involvement

363
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 3: in the World Baseball Classic. It's like, it's so ridiculous,

364
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: all of this right, look at you.

365
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 2: I don't even think about that at the next little

366
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: points too, you're on top. Didn't even think about that.

367
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm at your producer's job. But he's talking about other shit.

368
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 2: So, I mean, you would think it would help Skeens

369
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: getting getting acclimated of the WBC camping excuse that he's rusty,

370
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 2: but no, the Mets got to him. That grinded out

371
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 2: Mets line.

372
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 3: Up right has schoobol pitch yet, Taylor, he has he

373
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 3: thrown yet he did pitch yesterday.

374
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: I forget what grade. You know how I know this.

375
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 2: I'm on set at SNY one of the guys who

376
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 2: will run on the camera as a bet on school

377
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 2: Bawl to go like under seven strikeouts. And right before

378
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 2: I hear him murmuring, he's like, oh, yeah, they took

379
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 2: school Ball out of the game. And I'm like, what

380
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 2: are you talking about. He's like, oh, I had a

381
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: bet that he was gonna go under seven strikeouts. So

382
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 2: I believe he did pitch yesterday and he got taken

383
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 2: out of the game at some point.

384
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 4: Yes, dude, so Scooba pitched six scoreless innings.

385
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: That conversation is coming. I'm surprised it hasn't.

386
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 3: Happened already, and I guess I'm the guy getting it

387
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 3: off the ground. School Ball did not pitch in the

388
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 3: World Baseball Classic. We crushed him for it. He goes

389
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 3: out and gets a win, Skins get shelled by the Mets.

390
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: Unbelievable.

391
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 2: See tell her you're all about USA. Look at school

392
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 2: Ball doing the right thing, being ready and prepared for

393
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: his team, and Skeins let us let his group down.

394
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, Stu, it might be a USA curse right now

395
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 4: because Aaron Judge and the opener went zero for five

396
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 4: with four strikeouts. Oogan Webb got absolutely rocked by the Yankees.

397
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 4: It's not really looking too good for Team USA right now.

398
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: But you know who went three for four Roman Anthony.

399
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 2: Wow, I forgot about that.

400
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 3: Actually, Sally, are you into the NCAA Tournament.

401
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 1: It's hard not to be into this East region tonight, man.

402
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 2: I'll exactly. I'll be into the Saint John's Duke, although

403
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 2: I don't think that Saint John's has a chance. I

404
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 2: know it's March madness. Anything can happen. I just don't

405
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 2: think Saint John's has enough shooting to compete with Duke.

406
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 2: And I'll be into the Yukon Michigan State as well.

407
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 2: You're talking about two great head coaches, so I like

408
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 2: that part of that part of the bracket.

409
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: Yes, how's your bracket? Do it? Have you participated?

410
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 2: I did not. I didn't fall out a bracket. I've

411
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 2: been watching it more than I don't know why I

412
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: didn't fla out a bracket. I'm mad at myself. I

413
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 2: used to love college. I think I need to get divorced.

414
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 2: I didn't flaught of Bratt. It's my wife. I gotta

415
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: blame more. Since I got married, I kind of like

416
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 2: things that I used to love, they're not there anymore.

417
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: What's going on here?

418
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I get a new thing, your wife, a house,

419
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 2: a kid, whatever. But I missed it with a bracket.

420
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're supposed to replace the love of your

421
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 3: bracket with.

422
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: The love of your wife and your child. I mean,

423
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:00,959
Speaker 1: it's not working.

424
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 2: March sandness. I miss I missed doing the bracket, but no,

425
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 2: I got the Johnny's and Kansas got We were doing

426
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 2: that when I did the podcast where I'm like, oh,

427
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 2: they don't have the great coaches anymore, you know, like

428
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: Bill self, I forgot self was even coaching still right

429
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: with some of those guys. But I wish I did

430
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 2: fill out a bracket because I do really enjoy this

431
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: time of year with the March madness.

432
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: So you know, you can't say that. You can't say

433
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 3: that Saint John's, you can't say it with any sort

434
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 3: of conviction because it's the Sweet sixteen, and you know,

435
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 3: any of these teams in a one game scenario can

436
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 3: beat the other team, especially when Rick Patino is your coach,

437
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 3: and so you can't say that Saint John's will not

438
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 3: beat Duke.

439
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 2: I mean, that's easy, but usually the way that a

440
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 2: team would upset is shooting, right, Like, Okay, hey they

441
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 2: get hot, March mad, is anything happen. That's where Saint

442
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: John's like, they have been a bad shooting team all

443
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: year long. They've been a little bit better through the

444
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 2: first two games of the tournament, but I think it's

445
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 2: gotta be even better than that. They were fortunate to

446
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 2: get away with with Kansas. They could not score neither team,

447
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 2: So I think Duke. I think Saint John's a great

448
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 2: defensive team and have an all time great head coach,

449
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 2: So by that aspect, you say, maybe they have a

450
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 2: puncher's chance. I just don't think they could score the

451
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 2: basketball or shoot the basketball well enough to really compete

452
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 2: with Duke.

453
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 3: We've discussed this a bit on the show, but you'll

454
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 3: I think you'll laugh at this.

455
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: Uh.

456
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 3: You know just how polarizing Rick Patino was at one

457
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 3: point in his career and now he's beloved, Like Taylor

458
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 3: is saying, Oh, I can listen to Patino tell stories

459
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 3: and all day long.

460
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 1: I love him. I want them to be my coach.

461
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 3: Everyone fucking loves Rick Patino now because everything's out in

462
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 3: the open.

463
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 2: You know, we'll we talk about like the the off

464
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 2: the court issues.

465
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 3: Or the reason he was polarizing was some of the

466
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 3: off the court stuff.

467
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: He felt like he had an advantage.

468
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 3: He was giving suitcases of cash. He was doing it

469
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 3: behind the scenes. Now everyone is doing is giving suitcases

470
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 3: of cash. They're doing it right in front of the camera,

471
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 3: and no one gives a shit, and it makes Patino

472
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 3: a more lovable and likable dude.

473
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 2: You know, how about how about the fact that he

474
00:20:55,320 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 2: legit went rebuilt himself back up, going to Iona and yes,

475
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: or he went overseas whatever, and then coming back to

476
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 2: Iowa and building himself back up, getting to the level

477
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 2: where and knowing that Saint John's in New York Patino,

478
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: former Knicks coach, a New York legend. I think that

479
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 2: helps as well. And you're right, he's been open and

480
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 2: accountable and the way the game has changed right now

481
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 2: where everybody's doing the same thing. So good for Patino

482
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 2: getting Saint John's back to promise. I personally like him.

483
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 2: I hope look, I hope they beat the spot off

484
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,239
Speaker 2: of Duke. I can't stand Duke. Who likes Duke? I

485
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 2: just don't think it's realistic.

486
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: That's a great question. Taylor put it on the pole.

487
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: Who likes Duke? You? Possible responses could be, but no

488
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: one likes Duke.

489
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 3: I can't stand Duke. I want Saint John's to go

490
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 3: to the Final four. I think it'd be a great story.

491
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 3: I want them to win the National Championship.

492
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 1: Speaking of.

493
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 3: How disarray your marriage is and how much you're trying

494
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 3: to not spend time with your wife and with your family,

495
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 3: I am told here by Taylor that you are going

496
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 3: to not one, but two games in a single day.

497
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is going to great lengths to

498
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: void changing a diaper, hanging out with your wife. I mean,

499
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: what's the matter with you?

500
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 2: It was supposed to be one game, just the Islanders game.

501
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 2: We got invited by the Islanders go hang out in

502
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 2: the owner suite. So I'm looking forward to that.

503
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,959
Speaker 1: What do you get invited by the Islanders? What does

504
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: that mean? Well?

505
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: Well, wait, Geo, back in the day when we went

506
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 2: a couple of times from the fan, he took me

507
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: the Islanders owner's suite and then I became friendly with

508
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 2: the guys in there, and then we became I would

509
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 2: set up a thing with the fan guys. We'd go,

510
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if you notice, like, you know, don't

511
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 2: don't want work at the fan.

512
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: I kind of got.

513
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 2: Fired from the van. The Islander guys reached out and said, hey,

514
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 2: we love to have you anytime. So now I'm gonna go.

515
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: I'm going to take my producer and whatever and go

516
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 2: to the game. But it started out as just the

517
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 2: Islanders thing, and then I was like, Wow, the Mets

518
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 2: play at four. They're in the same vicinity. I get

519
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 2: to stay away from what goes on here. Yeah, for Saturday,

520
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 2: go have the play date with their friends. And I

521
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 2: don't want anything to do with that right there, Yes,

522
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 2: right about it hour and twenty away from Jersey, So

523
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 2: you attack on the top.

524
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: From Union over the city will be about an hour

525
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: and a half.

526
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that's true. That is true. The traffic I'm

527
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 2: not looking for, dude. The parking, that's a major issue.

528
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: So the Islander shouldn't be the issue. But at City Field,

529
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 2: because they're doing all these renovations and trying to build

530
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 2: a casino and a lot of stuff that's been an issue.

531
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 2: But yes, I'm sure I'm going going five miles will

532
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 2: take fifty minutes, no problem.

533
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: I couldn't.

534
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 3: I mean, the idea of going to a game after

535
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 3: I've already been to a game, yeah.

536
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: Too much even for me.

537
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 2: Go home, dude, I've done it once at the Garden.

538
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 2: I want to do the same day doubleheader Nicks Rangers.

539
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 2: We did the Knicks at noon, hung out in the

540
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 2: city afterward, went back to the Rangers, and it was

541
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 2: a long that's a long freaking day. This's a little

542
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 2: different one right, one o'clock start, four o'clock start, and

543
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 2: then come home and I come home and watch the Yankees. Busy, yes, say.

544
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: Yes, well, I mean come want to hang out with

545
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: your wife when you get home.

546
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 2: Hey, it's a busy season. She had me in February.

547
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 2: I mean, that's for a week.

548
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 3: You referenced Taylor softball team before. Have you played in

549
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 3: an adult softball league? Because I maintained there are a

550
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 3: few things in life that are sadder, so.

551
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 2: I used to and a part of me when I

552
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 2: hear Taylor and you guys talking about it, a part

553
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 2: of me is like, man, that could be fun being

554
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 2: part of a team and going out there. And then

555
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 2: the other part is like I want nothing to do

556
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,679
Speaker 2: with this anymore, like I would get hurt. I have

557
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 2: no interest in packing up and going there. I just

558
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 2: don't want anything to do with it. So I understand

559
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: the appeal of it. I used to do it years ago.

560
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 2: No chance I'd do it anymore.

561
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 4: So Stu room Median was so bad defensively. And the

562
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 4: thing that makes it even funnier is he's from my hometown,

563
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 4: from New York. So room Median is the guy who's

564
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,439
Speaker 4: on hold for two hours at wfan that wants to

565
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 4: tell you about how bad Jason Domnga's defense is.

566
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I committed seven errors and opening fun night of

567
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 3: a softball league.

568
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 2: Friend, that's embarrassing. I mean that guy gid he brings

569
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 2: his girlfriend and what's he doing there? Maybe he knows

570
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 2: purposely he doesn't want to get married to this girl,

571
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 2: so he brings her to the game where he's watching

572
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 2: all the balls in the outfield.

573
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 3: But Zach, can you imagine like sitting down with your wife, Honey,

574
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 3: sit down?

575
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: I joined an adult softball league. Want to come to

576
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: the first game?

577
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 2: You no, No, there's no chance. Well, we moved into

578
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: the in Jersey neighbors like, oh yeah, should come down

579
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 2: on the come down to the club, we'll play softball.

580
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 2: I go bro the last like, I don't want to

581
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 2: be here hanging out with you right now, the last

582
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 2: thing I want to do. I'm only here because my

583
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 2: wife said we got to make friends with the neighbors.

584
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 2: Truth be told, I don't want to be I'm a

585
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 2: nice guy, but I have enough friends. You think I'm

586
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: gonna go on my free time to go play softball

587
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 2: with you and another group that No, I'm sorry, that's

588
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 2: not you got the wrong guy, not me.

589
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, when were you done making friends?

590
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 6: Like?

591
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: When?

592
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 2: When?

593
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: When were you done? Because I was done when I

594
00:25:57,920 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: was like twenty two. I don't need any more people

595
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: in my life. I need less people in my life.

596
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,919
Speaker 2: It's a great question. I definitely would say after like

597
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 2: starting to work at the fan, it probably in my

598
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 2: late twenties early thirties that it was just like, all right,

599
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 2: we need to we need to not not only cut

600
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 2: it off, yere like we need to cut back from

601
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,239
Speaker 2: this from the roll decks that we already have, need

602
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 2: to get cut back.

603
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 3: So marriage is an amazing thing because the guy in

604
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 3: most cases is trying to downsize, right, and the wife

605
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 3: is trying to upsize and trying to create more fucking

606
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 3: people who are eventually going to ask you for something,

607
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:30,959
Speaker 3: you know.

608
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 4: So this happened to me recently where my girlfriend was like,

609
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 4: I met a friend, you would love her boyfriend, and

610
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 4: I just looked at her.

611
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 2: I go that capacity.

612
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 3: Sorry, you're not even married yet, dude.

613
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 2: Oh oh man. It gets worse because then you get

614
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 2: the extended family involved. It becomes too much my whole life,

615
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 2: my friends, my family. Then you're combining her friends, her family.

616
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 2: Then you bring kids, and now you got their friends.

617
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 2: Oh no, neighbors in no.

618
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: Way, no, but that fucking nonsense.

619
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 3: When the wife comes home or the girlfriend comes home,

620
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 3: Oh great person, I met her. You're gonna love the husband,

621
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 3: You're gonna love the boyfriend. Get the fuck out of here,

622
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 3: you know, did you speak to him? How do you

623
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 3: know who I'm gonna like and who I'm gonna dislike?

624
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 1: Oh?

625
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:19,600
