I'm still 21 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: at this point. Now it's it's six or seven hours old, 22 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: and they still don't know how I feel about the 23 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: Mets nearly getting no hit today, the big story in 24 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. Jan Soto breaks it up with a 25 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: home run in the ninth inning, but I felt like 26 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: the embarrassment was already there. The Mets, we've been terrible, 27 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: haven't won any games. The trade deadline is we've won 28 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: one game. I'm like, Okay, the whole world knew we 29 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: were getting no hit and they were gonna leave Williams 30 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: in there to throw one hundred and thirty hundred pitchers 31 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: to get that no hitter. 32 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 3: There is no tomorrow steal from rah uh. 33 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: It was so much, so much more METSI that they, 34 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: oh yeah, we actually did break up there, but we 35 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: still lost, still got swept. 36 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 3: Still, everything is still terrible. Okay. But I mean yesterday 37 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: you said you were good with it, you lied to 38 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 3: America multiple times. 39 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: Well you almost got no hit today, man, dude. In 40 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: the second inning, I'm watching the game and I'm like, 41 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: this is one of those dead from the neck up 42 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: games that the Mets have. And I said, it's not 43 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: gonna surprise me if the Mets get no hit today, 44 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: and every couple innings I reposted, yeah, eight, like I 45 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: could just tell. I said they're gonna get no hit 46 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: today because they have when the Mets. When the Mets 47 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: are gibing, man, it is awesome and they are something else. 48 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: But when they have nothing going on, this is what 49 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: they look like, and they are just it's like they're 50 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: just showing up and going home after every game. It's amazing. 51 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: You talk about the dog days of August. 52 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: All we're here. Oh, you hit a bad streak, right, 53 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 3: most of your guys aren't hitting. Soto hits a home run. 54 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, that's great, number twenty six on the year, 55 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 3: and it'll count towards what looks like a great end 56 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 3: of year. But you're playing bad situational baseball. Pitching staff 57 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 3: is nih which we've talked about at Nausium. So game 58 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: like today, yeah, part of you would rather just have 59 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 3: the no hitter. See that's where it all went. Instead 60 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 3: it's a one hit and hit rock bottom and the 61 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: no hitter would have been absolute rock bottoms. Oh no, 62 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: because tomorrow it's just a a we los by this 63 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 3: final count. Right, It's it's bad that there was a 64 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 3: near no hitter today, but tomorrow morning it's it's like that, 65 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 3: you know, blue bass hit. It's awful as you're watching it. 66 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know, but you know it looks like 67 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 3: a line shot. Hey, he's breaking out of a slump. 68 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 3: He's like, no, you know, the short sun just one 69 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 3: step away. But here you are. 70 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:21,519 Speaker 4: Louck. 71 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: I was like, if we get no hit, I'm gonna 72 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do one of those zero Dark twenty three 73 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: social media bands for like a day. I'm like, I 74 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: can't do it. I can't do it. I couldn't do it. 75 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: But we broke it up.

You don't like being 78 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: shut out. There's not a lot of those in baseball. 79 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: We still stink, though, We still stink going anywhere. 80 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 3: No, no, no.

Hey, the concussion thing 171 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: is a thing. Maybe we don't want to be the ones, 172 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: but if you want to use it, that's great. Because 173 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: Kittle says, I'm someone that sniffs them and uses them. 174 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter. I use them because it amps me up 175 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: and I can focus more. Now we can argue, you 176 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: know how safe that is. But he says, look, I'm 177 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: not doing it because I'm getting hit. I'm doing it 178 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: because before every drive, Hey, I'm it hyper focuses me. 179 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: I get out there and I'm ready to go play. Right, 180 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: My my tension doesn't wander, and so I'm able to 181 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: do this. So I get that for Kittle, I understand. 182 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: I'd also go to the other side and go drink 183 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: some coffee.

But I mean, but he had 193 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 3: he had that photo a year ago. 194 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: He had like what the eight pumps, like the eight 195 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: espresso pumps in his Starbucks. 196 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 3: If you have that, you'll be ready to play man. No, 197 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 3: that's it, You're ready. So there was a whole thing 198 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 3: off twenty twenty four, an FDA UH issuing the warning 199 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 3: about ammonia. Ammonia Inhalin's UH talking about the safety efficacy 200 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 3: from marketing mental alertness or boosting the energy and saying 201 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,599 Speaker 3: potent atually, you know, masking the neurological signs and symptoms, 202 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 3: including concussions.

It was on. Yes, he would 402 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 4: he would jump into a fight. 403 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: It Merry Christmas, doll all. 404 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 4: I love the totess of my team. They will They'll 405 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 4: go down a chimney for me. I know it. 406 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go. The fighting Patriots. Man, they got 407 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 3: they got to going on in training camp today. 408 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I Kundt preferred Baltic's way of handling fights. He 409 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 4: just kicked guys out out of practice and say, yeah, 410 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 4: we don't do that. This is game. In games, if 411 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 4: you get in a fight, you get a personal fallue, 412 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 4: you get kicked out of the game. We don't do that. 413 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 4: So you get kicked out of practice and you have to, 414 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 4: you know, pay the consequences for getting in a fight 415 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 4: and getting kicked out of practice, which is probably a 416 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 4: fine to go with it. So I kind of like 417 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 4: that way of doing it. But I do have an 418 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 4: appreciation for Rabel and what a tough guy is. So 419 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 4: I have some Rabel stories with Belichick, but I absolutely 420 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 4: can't share on this. The FCC would not allow that. 421 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 8: Okay, escalated, They're they're fun, they're fun, they're funny stories, 422 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 8: they're they're you know, Rabel saying, coach, what were you 423 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 8: saying about that? 424 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 4: You know that kind of line, you know, like you 425 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 4: get under Belichick's a little bit of stuff there, Okay. 426 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: And I do think you're saying that the Belichick's throwing 427 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: people out of practice and take care of them. That's 428 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: a pre twenty twenty Belichick. I don't think that's a 429 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: post twenty twenty Belichick. I don't think so. 430 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 4: No, it's no, it's always been a Belichick then bel Chick. No, 431 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 4: that's that's that's consistent. Okay, I would I would argue 432 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 4: on that one. He he believes in guys keeping their 433 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 4: cool in the middle of games. 434 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, Well I brought you. 435 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 4: On a serious note. You know, I'm like, say, you know, 436 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 4: the owner of the Cowboys who can't seem to keep 437 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 4: as cool about the fact that he blew it with 438 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,719 Speaker 4: and he's trying to explain away this negotiation. 439 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 3: So he looked me in the eye and we shook hands. 440 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 3: That's a contract, just so you know. And when you 441 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: look look me in the eye, and it's as good 442 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 3: as signs. 443 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 4: When I'm negotiating with you, which is illegal and against 444 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 4: the rules. But hey, I can't say anything right now 445 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 4: because you know what, they just had some guy who 446 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 4: was the screen actors deal. He didn't know anything about football, 447 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 4: He didn't know the rules. He doesn't know that I 448 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 4: can't talk to a player without talking to his agent. 449 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 4: That's against the collected bargain in agreement. He didn't know 450 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 4: any of that kind of stuff. So I'll just talk 451 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: about it openly and nobody will do anything to me. 452 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 4: Nobody won't take take away nothing from my cowboys. It's 453 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 4: eight It's unbelievable what they're getting away. Was like, you're 454 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 4: not like, it's in the CBA. You're not supposed to 455 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 4: do this, and he's talking about it openly. You're not 456 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 4: supposed to negotiate with a player if he has representation. 457 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 4: It is absolutely one against the rules. 458 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 3: Took somebody in the eye and shake their hand. I 459 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 3: could look him in the eye and shake their hand 460 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 3: and that, you know, in the old days, that's a contract. 461 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 4: But before I looked him in the eye, I said, 462 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 4: I was good with forty million rather than the forty 463 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: eight that you really deserve, because I had to talk 464 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 4: about that before I could look him in the eye 465 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 4: and assume that I had a deal. You know, we 466 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 4: did have to do some talking before that. There was 467 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: there was a little bit of that, and he was 468 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 4: good with me, you know, selling them short on the deal. 469 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 4: He was fine with that. He was absolutely fine. He 470 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 4: didn't say nothing about his representation, you know, I didn't 471 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 4: even know we had an agent, even though it was 472 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 4: on his last contract. I don't know. I don't know 473 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 4: these things. 474 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 3: See plausible deniability as established by Jason Coley. So I 475 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: gotta have so you gotta have card stuff. 476 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 4: Well, it's just it's just like the criminals just getting 477 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 4: away with everything right in front of our face. Admits 478 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 4: the crime, like, oh, yeah, I took all that money, 479 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 4: But you're not really going to do anything to me, 480 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 4: are you. I guess not, because that's what happens. 481 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 3: Well, I mean I read the news. There's a lot 482 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 3: of that going on.

All right, 524 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: so with all this stuff going on, is a big 525 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: mystery over how healthy Matthew Stafford is. 526 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 3: He's not today. 527 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 1: It was, Hey, it's a week to week injury and 528 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: the Rams expect him back for week one. 529 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 3: That's a big thing. 530 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: Jay called here, Hey, is a week to week injury. Okay, 531 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,959 Speaker 1: in the early part of August. But to hear we 532 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: expect him back for week one. That's a little bit 533 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: of a wait what you expect him back for week one? 534 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 3: Hang on a. 535 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 4: Second, Yeah, I was. I mean, when you look at 536 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 4: quarterbacks like this, how many downs do they get in 537 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 4: the preseason anyways? 538 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 8: Zero? 539 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 4: Right, so he's getting zero and we think he has 540 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 4: a little bit of an injury or oh yeah, he's 541 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 4: completely healthy and he's getting zero reps. Anyways, So what's 542 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 4: the I mean, what, what's sort of the difference, Like, 543 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 4: he's an old guy. If he's got a back injury, 544 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 4: you know, just leave it alone, let him, let him 545 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 4: get as healthy as possible, because they have they have 546 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,239 Speaker 4: to have him if they're going to be competitive. I mean, 547 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 4: he's the only thing that that you know, saved them 548 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 4: for basically the second half of last season, right, I 549 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 4: mean he was I mean, obviously Nick who is a 550 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 4: good player, they had a lot of mileage out of 551 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:46,120 Speaker 4: a lot of other guys, But Stafford was Stafford. If 552 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 4: not for Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen putting on some 553 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 4: just unbelievable show, Stafford played in the e caliber football. 554 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 4: You know, in any other season, he would have been 555 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 4: up there in the race. He just he was overwhelm 556 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 4: by those two guys, and you know, to a certain extent, 557 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 4: Derrick Henry. But I mean, he was amazing, and he's 558 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 4: the reason they almost beat Philadelphia in the playoffs, I 559 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 4: mean by himself, because he knew how to handle what 560 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 4: they were going to throw at him. So I don't 561 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 4: care if he plays a single down at this point 562 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 4: in time, given that he's been with the team for 563 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 4: a while. Now am I worried about the intrue? Sure, 564 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 4: because he's old. He's just old, and that's what happens. 565 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 4: So that's why, just like with Aaron Rodgers, go sit 566 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 4: over there. Just go sit over there, don't. We don't 567 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 4: need to see you until week one. Go sit over there. 568 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 4: That's what you gotta do. 569 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 3: I'm ready for Jimmy Garoppolo time. Hey, let's go back 570 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 3: to Cleveland where they now have at. 571 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 8: Least Jimmy was How many players will give me Garoppolo 572 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 8: forget from the huddle to the Linus Krimmage. 573 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 4: I told you that story, right, yeah. 574 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, that was a good one. 575 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's my favorite one. How many times he's such 576 00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 4: a brain dead ever, I mean a really nice guy, 577 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 4: sweetheart of a guy and good looking, like I mean, 578 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 4: you gotta give it to that guy like that. We 579 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 4: should we should all have. We should all have like 580 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 4: one day when we look like Jimmy Garoppolo, just one day, 581 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 4: that's that's all you need. But man, that's an amazing thing. 582 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 4: So but yeah, he's not not somebody's bault in the drawer. 583 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 3: Okay, neither are the Browns. They've got five quarterbacks working 584 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 3: on fine fantastic five.

Diamond Backs up two 668 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 9: to one after seven innings in Arizona. It's been seven 669 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 9: to between the Mariners and the White Sox for like ever, 670 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 9: and that's still the score bottom of the sixth innen 671 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 9: in Seattle. Earlier today in baseball, the Cardinals held on 672 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 9: five to three against the Dodgers in La Show. Hey o, 673 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 9: Tawny did it all? It wasn't enough. He pitched four 674 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 9: and he struck out eight hit a home run number 675 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 9: thirty nine on the season. It was also his thousandth 676 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 9: career hit. The Royals snapped the Red Sox seven game 677 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 9: winning streak, coming out on top seven to three. The 678 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 9: Brewers have won six in a row. They topped the 679 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 9: Braves five to four, completing the sweep, and the Yankees 680 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 9: snapped their five game losing streak by beating the Rangers 681 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 9: three to two. Tigers also lost earlier today to the 682 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 9: Twins nine to four, while the Rays as the Angels 683 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 9: five to four in the WNBA. Yes, nothing has gone 684 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 9: flying of any bright color. Yet the Aces are on 685 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 9: top of the Valkyrie sixty four to fifty four, about 686 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 9: ten minutes to go in the games. Asia Wilson has 687 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 9: twenty one points to lead the Aces right now. In 688 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 9: the NFL, the Titans announced that quarterback Cam Ward and 689 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 9: their starters are gonna play in. 690 00:32:58,360 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 3: Every preseason game. 691 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 9: Quarterback Jayden Daniels is not gonna play in Washington's preseason 692 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 9: opener against the Patriots, but he did a lot in 693 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 9: their joint practice today. Panthers cornerback JC Horn was in 694 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 9: a car crash this morning, he got stitches on his 695 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 9: left hand is considered day to day, but he won't 696 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 9: be missing Friday's preseason game against the Browns. And despite 697 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 9: confusion around the league, but because of a memo that 698 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 9: wasn't on Tuesday, NFL players are still gonna be able 699 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 9: to whip smelling salts to do that thing that they 700 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 9: want to do during the games as long as they 701 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 9: bring their exactly, just like that, they just have to 702 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 9: bring their own the band is night, okay, exactly. You know, 703 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,959 Speaker 9: it's just bring your own beer, but bring your own smellings. 704 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 9: There you go, exactly, That's all it is. Uh. And yeah, 705 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 9: you guys talked about it earlier today, but the female 706 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 9: umpire I agree. I can't believe baseball is so behind 707 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 9: on it. 708 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, when you were talking about that, I was. 709 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 9: Like, really, we've ever done that because out of the 710 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 9: three big sports, it's you know, the easiest one, like 711 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 9: the slowest one to you know, maybe be a ref 712 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 9: at being an umpire at. So I couldn't believe it either. 713 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 9: And I agree, but this is very exciting, exciting for 714 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 9: Gen Powell to be doing that this weekend. 715 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,280 Speaker 3: Back to you guys, Thanks a bunch of Monsey. 716 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: Yes, Jason Smith, Mike Harmon live from the Fox Sports 717 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: Radio studios coming up next.

I got a 739 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 1: bunch of games Friday, everything on Saturday, and we may 740 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: see and look, we're already getting reports. We talked about 741 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: this last night. Some of the guys, some of the 742 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks, we're gonna get to see at least a 743 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: little bit of in Week one. 744 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 3: And one of those guys, maybe Aaron Rodgers. 745 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: Rogers says that, hey, he thinks the Steelers offense starting 746 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: to figure things out, and he's open to showcasing just 747 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:51,439 Speaker 1: where the offense is in playing Saturday against Jacksonville. If 748 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin asks him. Roger's saying, quote, it's an interesting conversation. 749 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,280 Speaker 1: I think Mike and I will have that at some point. 750 00:35:58,320 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: I don't think it's in the plan for me to 751 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 1: play this week, but whatever Mike wants to do, I'm 752 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: fully on board. So this is typical Aaron Rodgers. Okay, 753 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: a conversation I could just have with Mike Tomlin. I'm 754 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: gonna have it in the media first to throw this 755 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: out there that potentially I could play, and then we're 756 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: gonna talk about it. 757 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 3: Uh. 758 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: Here's the thing where you know my big takeaway from this, right, 759 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's a different thing than 760 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: should Rogers play, should he not? I really don't care 761 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: if he does. Right, Like at this point with Aaron Rodgers, 762 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 1: the juice of the last three years of him, all 763 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 1: the oxygen in the room that he is sucked up, 764 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: that's gone. I really don't care about anything off the 765 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: field with him anymore. And it's about celebrity because just 766 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 1: like in you know, here we are in our country 767 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: where hey, somebody gets red hot for a year or 768 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: two and then some say, Okay, we've had enough of them, 769 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: and we just move on. 770 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 4: Right. 771 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 3: I don't know what that mass saturation point is, but 772 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 3: he has a lot. 773 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 1: Okay, I've had enough. Now we're moving on. I mean, 774 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: Rogers own the news cycle for the better part of 775 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: the last three is last years with green Bay, or 776 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: going into his last two years of green Bay, then 777 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: year one with the Jets. You're going into year two 778 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: with the Jets, and now it's okay, Rogers is near 779 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: the end. He doesn't seem like he's he's showing up 780 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: here for the Steelers other than I want to have 781 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 1: a peaceful end of my NFL career. I'm at the 782 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: point where, you know what, I really don't care about August, 783 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 1: I don't care going in see me when the game start, 784 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: when the real game start in September. That's an't all 785 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: care about Aaron Rodgers. But this whole soap opera with Rogers, 786 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: Like I think now, after this story today, I'm like, 787 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: I really don't care if he plays or not, right 788 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: cause what are we gonna say about how he looks 789 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: with the Steelers offense? If he plays for four plays 790 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 1: or five plays, is it gonna dominate the storyline? Is 791 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: it gonna be something we talk about ad nooys, Rogers 792 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: look terrible with this play in this play. No, I've 793 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: seen him. I've seen him throw off his back foot, 794 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: doesn't want to get hit anymore. Let's step into throws. 795 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: Does it go downfield? Okay, but the whole drama of 796 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 1: every day is a soap opera with him. I feel 797 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: like we're kind of done with that now when the 798 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 1: game start, game start, boy, let me see it. But 799 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: until then, like he doesn't have that kind of Q 800 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: raiting anymore. 801 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, but even with a lot of that, I was 802 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 3: done with it, but I couldn't avoid it, like it 803 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 3: was there. And this year he's not seeking any of 804 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 3: the big spotlight, just going to work, putting his head down. 805 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,280 Speaker 3: Like the only thing that matters at this point is 806 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 3: he the guy at the top of the Wikipedia page 807 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 3: for when Mike Tomlin's streak of winning or non losing 808 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 3: seasons end, that's really it for Aaron Rodgers, Right, how 809 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,760 Speaker 3: does he perform this year? Does he keep the streak alive? 810 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 3: And are they viable? In December into January, we're still 811 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 3: talking about the Steelers in what is a pretty crowded division. 812 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,240 Speaker 3: Now we make fun of the Cleveland Browns. I remind 813 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 3: everybody again two years ago we were talking about how 814 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 3: great this roster was if Deshaun Watson was serviceable. Well, 815 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 3: now we're making fun of how many quarterbacks that I 816 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 3: literally just showed you a toy where you get the 817 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 3: bonus Franklin doll if you buy a suit store. So 818 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 3: all of that to say for for Aaron Rodgers, like 819 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 3: a lot of it was bluster, and there were some 820 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 3: moments in the second half of last year where he 821 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 3: looked like that guy you remembered before the flag and 822 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 3: four players, before all of the hot take nonsense, and 823 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,280 Speaker 3: let's parse out whether this guy is the smartest guy going. 824 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 3: Because he showed up on a radio show, right, all 825 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 3: of that. So it's like you push that aside. It's like, 826 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 3: can he play football? Does he want to play football? 827 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 3: Can he make Arthur Smith's offense serviceable in a very 828 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 3: crowded and really cluttered AFC. Can he break through that? 829 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 3: That's all that matters what happens in the preseason. I 830 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 3: don't care if any of these guys playing. I'd rather 831 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 3: watch a guy that was the end of, you know, 832 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 3: potentially his college run. He gets a couple of snaps 833 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 3: and maybe finds his way into a career, kind of 834 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 3: like we're talking with Jason Cole with with Shador Sanders, 835 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 3: a lot of is gonna be made. It's like, okay, 836 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 3: it's a step, but no longer are we anywhere near 837 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 3: endgame for Aaron Rodgers. If he gives us a good 838 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 3: interview when they put a headset on him, that's the 839 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 3: bigger story than any five plays he's gonna give us 840 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 3: in a game. 841 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I even think that part of it is 842 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 1: kind of gone by the wayside, where we also wanted 843 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: to see his appearances every Tuesday in McAfee and what 844 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 1: he's gonna say, Like, I feel like that that's out 845 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 1: the window. Now, dude, there's still if he says something 846 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: incredibly outlandish, you'd go, okay, wow, here's what Aaron Rodgers said. 847 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,760 Speaker 1: But the overall, hey, he's a big straw that stirs 848 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 1: the drink. Like that time for him is gone now. 849 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 1: I mean, we see the end for Rogers boy, and 850 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 1: that's it. And maybe he changes it after he retires. 851 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: He has a big show and he becomes one of 852 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: the big talking heads, you know, former athlete. Okay, great, 853 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 1: but I feel like for now, but yeah, you know what, 854 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 1: just when the games start that that's what we can talk. 855 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 3: That's really I'm really back into Aaron Rodgers. 856 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: When the game starts, Kenny's still sling it exit out 857 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 1: about a Fresco exit swelling dumb. Jason Smith Mike Harmon 858 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: Live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. 859 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 3: Coming up next, a big. 860 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 1: Quarterback injury that I'm pretty sure his team is gonna 861 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: be okay even without him. 862 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 3: Fox
