Obviously this 25 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: is this, this becomes the swing game. You know, we 26 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: get some NFL talk about, we get some college football 27 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: talk about. Plus, this is the sports Equinox. 28 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 2: Is that right, Jase? Two Sports Equinox. 29 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: Thirty second of all time, thirty second sports Equinox of 30 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 3: all time. 31 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: And the basics of the sports Equinox are of all 32 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: of the major all the professional sports. 33 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 2: Are playing all at once, right, That that's what it is. 34 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: And Jason's problem, and I agree with him, is are 35 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: we really considering soccer? But yeah, soccer, hockey, NBA, NFL. 36 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: Is there college football tonight? 37 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: I don't know. Is there a college football night? Probably is. 38 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: There's college fotball like every night. But I guess we're 39 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: only considering professional. 40 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: Only professional sports. I'm willing to barely let hockey in. 41 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 3: I think in the nineties it was made a Major 42 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: four and barely anybody watches that sport. But soccer, that's 43 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 3: a reach. It's almost like when they're listing the five 44 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 3: things in the Sports Equinox and they get to the 45 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 3: MLS game. It's almost like when people say, after a 46 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 3: couple people die that are famous. You know, they always 47 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 3: go in threes, and then there's always a The third 48 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 3: one is always a stretch. Yes, you have two like 49 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 3: a listers and then a guy that worked, you know, 50 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 3: on a movie at some point. 51 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: So you're thinking soccer as a stretch. I would agree 52 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: with you. Aki is kind of a stretch. 53 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: But it does make sense because it's been around long enough, 54 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: it's secure, it's cure enough in itself. So we'll get 55 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: to the sports. Equinox doesn't actually matter. Are you equinox 56 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: or equinox guy? Does seem like a tomato? Tomato potato potato. 57 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: Getting a new job can be so much easier with 58 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: Express Imployant Professionals. With Express, you'll have a local connection 59 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: to the job market. Get started at expresspros dot com, 60 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: find location near you. So I think, guys, we start 61 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: with I mean, personally, I think we start with Brian 62 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: Kelly losing his job. And I understand Brian Kelly has 63 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: there's some things in his career which everybody makes fun of, 64 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: or if you just don't like him. Right when he 65 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: was first in Notre Dame, you'd scream at mostly his 66 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: quarterback and he would turn purple in the face, hard 67 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: image to. 68 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: Get out of your head. 69 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: Of course, you had the Scissor incident, which is an 70 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: absolute tragedy at Notre Dame, and social media likes to 71 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: have fun at Brian Kelly's expense. But Brian Kelly gets fired, 72 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: and I just there just isn't any way in which 73 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: there's realistic expectations. 74 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: That just isn't. 75 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: This is not the I mean again, you can listen 76 00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: to it as the coach telling you this. But LSU 77 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: lost to really good teams. That league has really good teams, 78 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: and LSU chose to do it through the portal, and 79 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: on paper, they should be better than other people because 80 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,239 Speaker 1: of what they've done in the portal. But the problem 81 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,799 Speaker 1: is that the portal does isn't always. It isn't always 82 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: the way to win. It's really hard to put a 83 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: team together to make them care, and so the win 84 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: over Clemson doesn't look as good as it should. The 85 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: win over Florida, Florida's fired their coach. The three losses 86 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: all the good teams in the sec Ole Miss on 87 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: the road, Vanderbilt on the road, A and M at 88 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: home Stompson and they end up firing him. I think 89 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: what's amazing about LSU football is this is much more 90 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: in line with LSU football historically. That's just the reality. 91 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy who changed it was really Saban 92 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: And then after Saban, Less Miles had a a bunch 93 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: of you know, had consecutive ten win seasons. But they're 94 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: five and three right now. Even if Brian Kelly was 95 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: to lose to Alabama, they were on track for another 96 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: nine and four year And I just I don't think 97 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: that's terrible. And it's like, look, dude, they've won ten, ten, nine, 98 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: probably nine now and that's the expectation. That's where they fall. 99 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 1: And the only times that they've had these spectacular years, 100 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: right I mean, you had the Joe Burrow year. That's 101 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: the most talented team maybe in the history of college 102 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: football if you look at what they had during edwar 103 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: Zron's fifteen o season in twenty nineteen. Outside of that, 104 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: edwar Juan won nine ten, and then of course you 105 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: had the Covid years and the ugly years at the 106 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: end where he won five and six. You know, Les 107 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: Miles had the one year where he went thirteen and one, 108 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: and he had a couple coming off of Nick Saban, 109 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: he had three consecutive eleven plus win seasons, but he 110 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: had eight, he had a five, he had an eight 111 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: and nine, then finally they fired him in an eight 112 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: win year. This is actually and it's more competitive now 113 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: that's ever been. LSU is finding out that however, you 114 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: want a word, what they used to do and the 115 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: extra benefits they used to provide. It was generally seen 116 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: as a cheaters school. Now you're in the SEC where 117 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: everyone can buy players. It's I mean this, Oklahoma, I 118 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: said this when they joined the SEC. A program that's 119 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: used to ten and eleven win seasons is going to 120 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 1: have to get used to four in five loss seasons. 121 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: That's going to be the norm, not the exception. It's 122 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: really that difficult. Alabama, same thing like Alabama's. They are 123 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: winning games and I was the guy who defended klen 124 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: Borrer to start the year when they lost to Florida 125 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: State and they've won every game since. But the fact 126 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: is that Alabama is a player two away from having 127 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: three losses instead of number four right in the face. 128 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: It's really what it's like in this league. It's a 129 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: super league and you have to adjust otherwise. And the 130 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 1: crazy part about it is that Brian Kelly has gone 131 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: from a guy that seemed unlikable, seemed unrelatable, to boy enviable. 132 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: I guarantee if I ask Jay stew if I ask 133 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: Dan Bayer, if I ask Sam, No matter how much 134 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: we love what we do, if I said you can't 135 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: do that anymore at the place in which you work 136 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: or wherever, you just can't do it anymore. But I'm 137 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: gonna give you fifty four million dollars to not do 138 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: it anymore, you'd be like, okay, But we've reached this 139 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: point of ridiculousness in college football. It started this year 140 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: when you fired two coaches three games in the season, 141 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: and now you're firing just anybody who doesn't win an 142 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: SEC championship, and the expectations are as such. And the 143 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: crazy part about it is you can continue to fire 144 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: coaches whenever you want. You can't really fire players when 145 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: you want. But it's also fair to say that Brian 146 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: Kelly to LSU was a weird fit. And then you 147 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: have people go, well, he's not recruiting anymore, he's not 148 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: recruiting the same level. Yes they are, heart they recruit 149 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: out of the portal. They don't do the high school recruiting, 150 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: and it's just hard to build a team out of 151 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: the portal. But what I think got LSU, what got 152 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: Brian Kelly is the depth of that league. Is that 153 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: the last two years the league has been okay, and 154 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: by SEC standards, it's been a little bit down. And 155 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: now with the new ruling, they've gone just all in 156 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: money wise, and there is way more talent and way 157 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: more parody. And he's lost to three really good teams. 158 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: It's hard for people to adjust to the fact that 159 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt is good, but Vanderbilt is actually legitimate and good. 160 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: That's because Vanderbilt no longer has the academic limitations that 161 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: used to have, and now you know that it's not 162 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: cheating for them to buy players, whereas previously Vanderbilt was 163 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: you had the reputation of they didn't do anything extra. 164 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: I think that's what people are struggling to adjust to. 165 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: The adjustment in where Vanderbilt sits in the grand scheme 166 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: of things, and the fact that everybody's got players, and 167 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: if you put yourself ahead based upon the fact that 168 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: you were buying players previously, you're not anything special now 169 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: unless you just have more money than everybody else. 170 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 3: This is the Best of the Dog Dot Leab Show 171 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: on Fox Sports Radio. 172 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: Booming Up America, Doug Godleab Show, Fox Sports Radio.

Here's what I want to do. 183 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: Back when Twitter was Twitter, back before it had bots, 184 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: or at least we knew they were bots, and before 185 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: there was blue check marks. I love the device because 186 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: it felt like you were in a room full of 187 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: people who were all watching the same event and would 188 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: have funny remarks and comments so whatever. And it was 189 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: a little bit like Mystery Science Theater three thousand and 190 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: When I say that, there's going to be a you 191 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: that have no idea what I'm talking about. 192 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 2: There's a small portion of you that when I explained. 193 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: It to be like, oh, okay, I know, and then 194 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: there's a very very small portion of view, they're gonna 195 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, that's exactly what it was. Like Mystery 196 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: Science Theater three thousand was. 197 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: Was that a Nicked night show? Jase Twitt? I want 198 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 2: to say it was like a Nicked night show, no idea, 199 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 2: but it was. 200 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: It was the premise of it was there's like a 201 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: robot and a dude and maybe one other robot and 202 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: they were stuck in space, and so they would watch 203 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: all of these b movies from like the eighties and nineties, 204 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: and they would just make comments about the movies, you know, 205 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: the unbelievable parts of it, the poorly shot parts of it, 206 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: or whatever. 207 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 2: That's what it was. It was comedy Central. 208 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: That's what Twitter used to be, like, right, we're all 209 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: sitting around watching the same game and making funny comments. 210 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: Now it's you know, it's not real world. It's way 211 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 1: too far left or way too far everything's negative, full 212 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: of bots, full of ads and whatever. But last night 213 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: was a shared experience and if your experiences hadn't watch it, dude, 214 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: just because I'm not that into baseball, that's okay, but 215 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: I fell asleep last night. I fell asleep twice and 216 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: missed it. I mean, and I've missed several things. I 217 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: really missed two things in my lifetime that I'm I 218 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: don't know if I'm bitter about, but I definitely reticent about. 219 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: I want to say. It was nineteen. 220 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: Ninety six USC UCLA. Cay McCown was the quarterback of UCLA. 221 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: They were down big heading into the fourth quarter, and 222 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: they scored like I'm gonna say, like four touchdowns in 223 00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. My sister was a lum of UCLA. 224 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: She was a former UCLA cheerleader, so we'd been a 225 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: ton of UCLA games. My brother was a uclalm. My 226 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: whole family we used to go to this game all 227 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: the time.

Gone to World Series games with the Dodgers. 349 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: Dodgers team is the best place I've ever been to 350 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: see a baseball game. But I was I was so 351 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: excited with the seventh inning that it really did I 352 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: agree with you? 353 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 2: What'd you say?

But yeah, I'd 364 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 5: say that between like the you know, the fifth through 365 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 5: the ninth inning was really tense.

I ate dinner, I laid there, I went 371 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 5: on the computer, and just inning after inning, draw after draw, 372 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 5: stalemate after stalemate, and then Freddie finally ends it, and 373 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 5: you're just like, thank you Lord Jesus. 374 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 2: All right, Jase too, what was last night, Like, this is. 375 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 3: Like a labor of love for me. I'm gonna say 376 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 3: this is I rarely am serious, but I'm gonna be 377 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 3: dead serious here. I had just raw emotions. I had 378 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 3: tears in my eyes a quarter to midnight last night. 379 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 3: One of the greatest things I have ever witnessed since 380 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 3: I've been in the business, but even in my lifetime, 381 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 3: and I remember Kurt Gibson, it was like, again, this 382 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 3: experience that I'm about to share with you is a 383 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 3: complete labor of love. Because how many people at the 384 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 3: game last night or watching the game last night get 385 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 3: to go on the radio the next day and talk 386 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 3: about your team in one of the greatest experiences you've 387 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 3: ever had. And where do you want to start? Like, 388 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 3: where do you want to start? How many storylines do 389 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 3: you want to follow? You have the show Hey O 390 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 3: Towny's story. You have the Freddie Freeman story, those are 391 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 3: the headlines. You have the bullpen story that superstar will 392 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: climb introduce himself to the world last night something. You 393 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 3: have the Tommy Edmund redemption story. He made a horrible 394 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 3: error in the second or third inning and spent the 395 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 3: entire rest of the eighteen innings making up for that. 396 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 3: He was a part of the relay throw home that 397 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 3: saved the game. He was a part of the throw 398 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 3: from from second base to get what's his phase at 399 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 3: third base to save the inning. 400 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: What about that little scoop just the first base, you know, 401 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: the little dribbler like that was? That was That was 402 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: one of those where you think of it as like 403 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: a hot dogging play, you know, where you don't touch, 404 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: you use your hand, but he actually needed it for 405 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 1: that play, and he scoops it up and throws it 406 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: the first and again saves another run. 407 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: And that's where the storylines crossed, because that was Kershaw's story. 408 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 3: Kershaw came in for one pitch, bet one batter. He 409 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 3: threw ball four twice. He threw ball four twice to Lucas. 410 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: Lucas swings at ball four that almost was in the dirt. 411 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 3: Tommy Edmund comes in, scoops it up and throws to first. 412 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 3: Everybody who was watching that, who has been invested in 413 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 3: the Dodgers all of Kershaw's career, was Ellen Kershaw in 414 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 3: that moment, And if you've seen the replay, she was 415 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 3: going to lose it. I think she was about to 416 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: have a heart attack. And all Dodger fans were feeling 417 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 3: the same thing. The roller coaster of last night is 418 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 3: so hard to put into words. I was so pissed 419 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 3: at Mookie Betts for eighteen innings of a game. That's 420 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 3: almost two games. I spent pissed off at Mookie Betts, 421 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 3: just seething at him. And I'm still mad at him. 422 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 3: But it doesn't it's not as as my feelings about 423 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 3: him do not overcompensate for just the pure feeling of joy. 424 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 3: The video that we saw last night. I put it 425 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 3: on my social media. You've seen it. Somebody got a 426 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 3: video of Yama Mato, who who volunteered to pitch in 427 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 3: the nineteenth inning, if it's gonna if it was gonna go, 428 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 3: they got it. Just through the complete game, volunteered to 429 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 3: pitch in the nineteenth inning. He was gonna give us 430 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: nine innings last night. You see the video of him 431 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 3: and all the guys in the bullpen, including his interpreter, 432 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 3: and there's like pure genuine glee, and then they went 433 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 3: to embrace show hey like midfield, and I'm thinking, this 434 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 3: is what eight year olds do in Little League. I 435 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 3: was just so overcome with emotion watching the videos from 436 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 3: last night, just pure unadult traded glee. I was so happy. 437 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: Alright, let me give you, let me give you a 438 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: couple of thoughts. Heres Doug Gottlip Show here on Fox Sports. 439 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: Feel free to share, yes, your thoughts in watching that 440 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: baseball game. And if you didn't watch the baseball gain, 441 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: it's okay, all it's all part of the story because 442 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 1: you're going to be the guy like I didn't watch well, well, 443 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: whatever it was, it was an amazing sporting event. 444 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 2: Two parts. 445 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: One, I don't have to not sound harsh. This is 446 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: what college basketball coaches talk about all the time. This 447 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: is why we recruit foreign players because they just are 448 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: easier and they seem to be wired better, like we 449 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: screw up the wiring. And again I'm using this as 450 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: the basketball analogy to baseball, which is different, and there's 451 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 1: different parts of the world that play baseball, celebrate believe 452 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: in baseball differently. 453 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 2: Right. 454 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:54,360 Speaker 1: But the way in which if you listen to Show 455 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: Hayes interview after the game where they asked him all 456 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: these things, like all he wants to do is win, 457 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: and he wants to go home and get to sleep 458 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 1: so they can wake up and win the next day. Right, 459 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: now again the cynic says, well, that's easy when you 460 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: got seven hundred million dollars coming into you over the 461 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 1: next twenty years. But no, that's really how he's wired. 462 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 1: That's it's just different. There isn't the entitlement of the 463 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: American or maybe even the Latin player. It's just not 464 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: very very different. 465 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 2: You know. 466 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 1: It's like when you watch American baseball players or Latin 467 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: baseball players, there's one thing that I would say over 468 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: fifty percent of them have some ridiculous chain on when 469 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: they play. You ever noticed Japanese players don't have that? 470 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: You ever knows that they just said they're they're they're 471 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: playing baseball to play baseball. 472 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: That's what they do. 473 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: And the reason that so many American coach like myself, 474 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: like we had a kid in last night from Serbia 475 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: and we have three Serbians on our team, and you know, 476 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: we had two Israelis last year in Australian kid and 477 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 1: they're just wired differently. They're wired to like, hey, I 478 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: just want to go out and like the Aussie's, I 479 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: want to go play ball and then have a beer afterwards. 480 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: Like that's really it. 481 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: So the first thing is, like I do think there's 482 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: a purity to the Japanese star that doesn't have doesn't 483 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: have the entitlement. Doesn't mean all American players are entitled, 484 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: doesn't even mean most of them are entitled. But I 485 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: am blown away by the lack of entitlement from the 486 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 1: Japanese player. Secondly, there is something that I don't think 487 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: gets discussed, and I gotta be honest with you. I 488 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: didn't listen to a ton of Joe Davis and John Smoltz, 489 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 1: even though I love John Smoltz eighteen innings nine innings 490 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: of extra inning ball when in the regular season extra 491 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: inning play is completely different. Right when you get to 492 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: the tenth inning in the regular season, there's a guy 493 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: on second base to start every inning, So it's a 494 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: completely different way of playing, preparing. Obviously your defense is more. 495 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: But something that Sam said is at some point I 496 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: just wanted to get over that's how regular season baseball is. Right, 497 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: regular season baseball, they put a guy at second base 498 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: because everybody's like, we're good here, let's a rap, let's 499 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: get this thing going. But it's there's no real preparation 500 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: for when you play one hundred and six to two 501 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: games with one set of rules, and then you play 502 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: the playoffs and there's a different set of rules, and 503 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: you can say, well, it's the same set of rules 504 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: you play the first nine and things, but we all 505 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: know that it's not because the amount of pressure and 506 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: the adjustments that are made are completely different, or maybe 507 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: they're much just on peak in comparison to others. So 508 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: there's lots of takeaways to be had. I agree with 509 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 1: John Sneyder. I would ever pitch to show Io Toni 510 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: ever and yeah, it's a bad watch, but you know what, 511 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 1: if you can do it, you do it. Rule number 512 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: one in coaching take away what the other team does best? 513 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: Period stop. And I'm blown away by the lack of 514 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: entitlement of the Japanese player. And I find it really 515 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: interesting that What's Gonna go down as historically one of 516 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: the greatest games ever played in World Series history, there 517 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: was not the level of pre prepparedness for it because 518 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: the regular season rules are. 519 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 2: Different in xtrated play. 520 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: Give us some of your thoughts at Gottlieb Show Twitter, 521 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: at Gottlieb Show Instagram as well.

And one of the things that Colin has 552 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: always said and frankly taught me when I was just 553 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: a young whipper snapper we got to ESPN at the 554 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: exact same time, was don't talk about what you want 555 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: to talk about, talk about what the most people want 556 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: to hear about. So look, I'll start with the NFL. 557 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: Last night was a complete beat down. One team is 558 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: trying to turn around their season, the other one seems 559 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: dead the water. And the one team is trying to 560 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: turn around their season came in with the inferior record. 561 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, Ravens come in not really competitive against the Dolphins, 562 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: and today Chris Greer is let go. 563 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 2: But I I gotta take. 564 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: So word I'm looking for. I gotta take a second, 565 00:30:55,080 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: okay and call bs bs on something probably the most 566 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:10,719 Speaker 1: powerful man in sports media had to say earlier today 567 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: was not research, not poorly researched, not research categorically misconstrued 568 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: or even false and designed simply to feed into the 569 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: narrative that the end of the day, the NFL is racist. 570 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: Right. 571 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: I'll get to that in one second. First, here's Mike McDaniel, 572 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: the still head coach of the Miami Dolphins, summing up 573 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: the loss after the game. 574 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 7: That was that self inflicted wounds that we've been putting 575 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 7: such an emphasis on, you know, all things related to 576 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 7: our operation. And in the critical fourth and one where 577 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 7: the you know, we're pretty fired up about the defensive Look, 578 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 7: it was what we were calling the play for and 579 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 7: that's flat out a controllable that our team knows that 580 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 7: keeps you from winning. So I rate at nothing but 581 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 7: our self inflicted wound. 582 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, Ok, that's Oli Gordon. He slips, he falls, he 583 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: low bridges oncoming defender, causes a penalty and they don't 584 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: get the first down because of it. And then Oli 585 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: Gordon is yelling back an assistant coach. And again, if 586 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: you watch the video, Ali fell down. He slipped, but 587 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: again it still is your fault when you slip. Whatever, 588 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: the Dolphins were gonna change coaches at the end of 589 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: the year, regardless, the Dolphins are probably gonna have to 590 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: change quarterbacks at the end of the year or get 591 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: into the process of whenever they can get out of 592 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: to his deal, get out of to his deal. Chris 593 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: Greer was fired. That should be mentioned. He's been with 594 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: the organization for twenty five years. In those twenty five years, 595 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: they have won exactly zero playoff games. He's been the 596 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: GM for ten years. They've won exactly zero playoff games. 597 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it's not difficult. But I heard 598 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: this earlier today on first Take, and I thought it 599 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: was so bad. It was actually offensive. And I'll tell 600 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: you why after you listen to Steven A. 601 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: Smith is BS that's the first fire. 602 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 6: Really, that's what we're doing, what we've seen, what we 603 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 6: just finished talking about. You know, there are things that 604 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 6: you need to be modified, et cetera, et cetera. But 605 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 6: the personnel that they have on this squad, although we're 606 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 6: not we're not happy with it. We didn't walk into 607 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 6: this season thinking they were going to be trash. We 608 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 6: looked at their ross and we said they got some potential. 609 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. 610 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 6: It was about Tua, it was about Mike mcdoniel and 611 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 6: the brother get fired. 612 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 3: First. 613 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 6: All I know is this, I better hear Mike McDaniel's 614 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 6: name today. I better hear Mike McDaniel's name today. But 615 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 6: I made it better not be just Chris Grere. And 616 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 6: I'm not saying that he don't deserve it because of 617 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 6: the way they look at the end. 618 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 5: You knew you at the helm. 619 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 4: I got it. 620 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 6: I understand it. 621 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 2: Listen. 622 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 6: I'm all for brothers as. 623 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 7: Head coaches gyms. 624 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 6: We know what battles I've been fighting over thirty years. 625 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 2: Okay, I got it all right. 626 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 6: But because when you don't get the job done, you 627 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 6: don't get the damn job done, period. 628 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 5: I got it. 629 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 6: Don't tell me it's just him. Don't tell me we 630 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 6: gonna leave Mike McDaniel's in place and we just gonna 631 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 6: fire him and we. 632 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:41,879 Speaker 2: Gonna move forward. Damn that. 633 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 6: I don't want to hear it. 634 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: I'm waiting for more news. 635 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,280 Speaker 6: I'm waiting for more news again. 636 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 2: I can't. 637 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 6: I can't defend Chris Grere with some of the decisions 638 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 6: that have been made personal wise. 639 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 2: I got it. 640 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 6: I understand it is unfortunate, but I got it. But 641 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 6: I'll be damned if it gets to stop there. 642 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 2: Oh hell no, So. 643 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 1: We all heard the exact same thing. Okay, I don't 644 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: want to mislabel it. I don't want to misassociate it. 645 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: I don't want to treat it as anything other than 646 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: what we heard Stephen A. 647 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 2: Smith say. Stephen A. 648 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:19,399 Speaker 1: Smith said that though he thinks Chris Greer ultimately should 649 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: have been fired because he's black, he shouldn't be the 650 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 1: first one fired because the problems are with TUA and 651 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: with Mike McDaniel. Now there's two different things that we 652 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 1: have to point out. One, Mike McDaniel is mixed race. 653 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: His father, I believe, is a black man. Tua is Samoan. 654 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 1: So again, I'm not racist. I don't know how racism works. 655 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 1: I just don't. Apparently, in Steven A. Smith's world, because 656 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: Chris Greer has darker skin and both parents are black, well, 657 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: then the Dolphins are racist against him him more so 658 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: than against McDaniel and TUA. 659 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 2: Right, that's the assumption. He talked about. 660 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: The decisions that have been made he doesn't agree with. 661 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: Who was the general manager when they selected Tua. The 662 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 1: answer is Chris Greer, who was the general manager when 663 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: they re signed TUA. The answer is Chris Greer, who 664 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: was the general manager who told the owner, Stephen Ross, 665 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:38,760 Speaker 1: it's either Brian Flores, who didn't like Tua and didn't 666 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: like Chris Greer and didn't like essentially any offensive coach 667 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: who coached with him, and so they got rid of 668 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: him and they brought in Mike McDaniel. He hired Mike McDaniel, 669 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: He drafted Tua, he re upped to a He built 670 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: this entire roster, And the biggest flaw in all of 671 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: sports media is one of the things that was on 672 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 1: display outside of you know, race baiting and creating a 673 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 1: narrative which is completely false and doesn't exist and is 674 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: super embarrassing to any of us in sports media, especially 675 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: somebody who's the highest paid employee at ESPN essentially calling 676 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: the Dolphins races for firing a GM who they'd held 677 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: on for ten years despite the fact they never won 678 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: a playoff game. But here's the biggest mistake they made. 679 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: We are some of the players, we like some of 680 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: the players. That's because you don't like one. He didn't 681 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: know the roster. Second, it's not about the talent. The 682 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 1: most talented teams don't win. It's the best teams that 683 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:49,760 Speaker 1: Winky and they made. Who made the decision to trade 684 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: for for Tyreek Hill, keep in mind, you can criticize 685 00:37:56,040 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: the personnel, the wide receivers they've given to patmah Holmes 686 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: since Tyreek Hill was traded. They've won two super Bowls 687 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 1: since he's been gone. Why because you don't win just 688 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 1: based on talent. You gotta win based on guys that 689 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: salary fits in and want to be part of a team. 690 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill didn't want that, so they Chris Greer's biggest mistake, 691 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: biggest mistake was drafting to over Justin Herbert right. That 692 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: ultimately is why he gets fired. But the other mistakes 693 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: he's made is he's gone talent over character. They have 694 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: some guys with terrible character on that team that they've 695 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,439 Speaker 1: been trying to get rid of. That ruined any sort 696 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 1: of culture that they tried to build. And the defense 697 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: stakes and two is not good enough and everybody knows it. 698 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: But you have the most powerful man in sports media. 699 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 2: Don't believe me. 700 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: Just ask him stating something which he's forgotten, that they 701 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,280 Speaker 1: fired the coach last time to keep the general manager. 702 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 1: The coach was black, the geno matters was black. Nobody 703 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 1: said anything about it except for Brian Flores, who sued 704 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,800 Speaker 1: the Dolphins and so instead of actually talking about what happened, 705 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 1: how to fix it, who they should hire, you know, 706 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 1: or whatever. Instead they label the NFL as racist, and 707 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:19,240 Speaker 1: then there's nobody on that set that goes like, uh, hey, 708 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: you know he was there for twenty five years, he 709 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: was the GM for ten. The entire front office is 710 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: actually black with the Miami Dolphins. So they're not racist 711 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 1: to hire and support and promote Chris Greer, but they're 712 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: racist to fire him instead of firing a mixed race 713 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: coach or firing a simoan or trading or get rid 714 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: of or cutting a swoon quarterback. That doesn't make any 715 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,280 Speaker 1: sense to anybody with any sort of brains. But again, 716 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: the people that listen to Stephen A. Smith think worlds 717 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: out to get black people. The NFL is racist. That's 718 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,800 Speaker 1: why they fired Chris Greer first. And they'll get to 719 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: Mike mcdanees some other day. Jace do, I just want 720 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 1: to make sure did you hear the same thing that 721 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: I heard? Just want to make sure that I'm not 722 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: just hearing things I'm not and I'm not like, I'm 723 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,919 Speaker 1: not one of these guys that goes around and tries 724 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: to find things which people call racism. And you're like, 725 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: it's not ra but like this is. It's utterly ridiculous, 726 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: and it's it's the type of thing that I believe 727 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: has driven people away from the rest of ESPN. I 728 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: don't think all or even most of people who work 729 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 1: at ESPN think this way. Most of the broadcasting is 730 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,240 Speaker 1: based upon the actual sports, but the race. 731 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 2: Bating is tired, it's done, it's over. 732 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 1: And this one only proves that Stephen A does no work, 733 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: no research, doesn't actually care to do so. And then 734 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: two he plays that one card he always has, which 735 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 1: is racist. 736 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 2: Did I miss something? 737 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 3: No, I don't think you missed anything. And I do 738 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 3: think that there needs to be some clarification from the 739 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 3: people over there at ESPN, like what, what where does 740 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 3: the mixed race fall into this? Because remember Ryan klarquast 741 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,760 Speaker 3: Fall said that Lamar Jackson needs to win a Super 742 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 3: Bowl for US. Lamar Jackson does when Pat Mahomes is 743 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 3: one four or five, right, Yeah, And in this situation, 744 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 3: mixed race Mike McDaniel somehow is left out of the equation. 745 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,399 Speaker 3: I just don't know how that factors in here. 746 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just again, that's say that is a that is. 747 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 2: A cultural argument. That we can't. 748 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:44,280 Speaker 1: That's one you can't get into, right. I mean, look, nobody, 749 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,280 Speaker 1: nobody crushes black people like black. 750 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 2: People will do it. You know. 751 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: It's one of the things about that, A lot of 752 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: people in the black community will say, like, hey, why 753 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: do we treat light skin people differently than dark seam 754 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: Like why do we do that? It does happen in 755 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: other parts of society. Happens in Mexico, as I think 756 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: anybody in California knows. There's always been the conflict between 757 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: lighter skin Mexicans and darker skinned Mexicans. And again that's 758 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 1: not my purview. I don't know, and I don't care. 759 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he didn't take it. He wasn't saying 760 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: that because he's mixed raced. He's below that of you know, 761 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 1: somebody who comes from a black mom and black dad. 762 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 2: He didn't know. He didn't know. 763 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: He doesn't even remember about Brian Flores. He didn't know 764 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 1: about the whole Miami Dolphins front office. He doesn't know, 765 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 1: and he doesn't care because nobody outside of us and 766 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: some other people will call him on the bull crap. 767 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: But this is bull crap because all he had to 768 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: do was ask a researcher. He doesn't even have to 769 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: know himself. Hey man, give me, give me something on 770 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, and you know what they wouldn't say. They 771 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:46,919 Speaker 1: wouldn't say. You know, it's got a racist to fire 772 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 1: at Chris Greer first, because they would point out, you know, 773 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 1: they hired Chris Greer, they stood by Chris Greer. The 774 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: whole front office was African American. The last head coach 775 00:42:54,520 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: was African American. It doesn't make any sense, but Dad 776 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: doesn't get clicks, and we just gave him more clicks, 777 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: even if we were clowning on his take.
