The Way tire buying 8 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 2: should be an absolute jam pack show on this daylight 9 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: savings weekend. I gotta tell you and An how we've 10 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 2: got our midnight hour which is really going extremely well. 11 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 2: Callers have been outstanding. I'm predicting tonight will be the 12 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 2: most provocative. It's gonna blow up. I'll give you a 13 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 2: little tease. We have a couple of subjects. One might 14 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: have to do with an upcoming Boxy match July twentieth 15 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: on Netflix between spoiler Alert, Jake Paul and Mike Tyson 16 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: Want to get your thoughts. And a championship basketball game 17 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 2: in New Jersey, a high school game which is intended 18 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 2: to be decided on the basketball court, but currently is 19 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: being argued in the court of law. Lots to unpacked there. 20 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 2: It's a moral dilemma, and it's got a lot of layers, 21 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 2: and I will share some history. We want to hear 22 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 2: from you folks on that. Of course, we got all 23 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 2: kinds of NFL stuff, baseball stuff. Larry Sorensen joins us 24 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: at about fifteen minutes. But the biggest news of the week, 25 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: at least earlier in the week, and the news that'll 26 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: have the most legs that you'd be talking about well 27 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: in the next football season. This gentleman has been described 28 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: as cringey, artificial and authentic, perhaps even phony. You know 29 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. I guess when they're write the 30 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: when they were at the history books, it'll go down 31 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: is what's called a mile high mistake. How's that for 32 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 2: a little alliteration, not great alliteration. But work with me, 33 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: and you see, no one wants to be known as 34 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 2: a phony. If you don't believe me. He reminds me 35 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: of a story. There were two twin brothers that were 36 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: notorious criminals back in the eighteen hundreds, and they ran 37 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 2: rough shot over this small western town. They rob banks, 38 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: they rob people. They were nefarious. You know, do batters, scoundrels, miscreants, 39 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: robber steves, you name it terrible people terrible and they 40 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,679 Speaker 2: ran rough shot for two decades, and one day suddenly 41 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: one of the twin brothers died and their surviving twin 42 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: brother was completely distraught, couldn't handle it, and he approached 43 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: the town preacher and said, I need a favor. I 44 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: want to have a nice funeral for my brother, and 45 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 2: I will pay to the princely sum of ten thousand 46 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: dollars if you will just merely do a eulogy, and 47 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: in that eulogy, please please describe my brother as a saint. 48 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: That's all I ask. The preacher thought about it. Ten 49 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: thousand dollars, he says, okay, I'll do it well. The 50 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 2: day at the funeral, people came from miles around, from 51 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 2: several towns away, and it was it was packed. And 52 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: as the uh as the preacher began his eulogy, he 53 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 2: motioned down to the casket where the dead twin lie 54 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 2: and he said, this gentleman here he was a terrible person, 55 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 2: a miscreant, a scoundrel, a robber, a thief, a horrible, 56 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: horrible human being, but compared to his brother, he was 57 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: a saint. Nobody likes the phony. Now I've never met 58 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson. You know me, I'm no stranger to name dropping, 59 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: but I've never met Russell Wilson. But I've heard talk. 60 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: You heard Carl Mecklenberg's retorts, you heard what came out 61 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: of Seattle. I guess in the end, this was an 62 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 2: outcome we all saw coming. But the truth of the 63 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: matter is, when you release the Russell Wilson, the ramifications 64 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 2: for both the franchise and the player are incredible. They're astonishing. 65 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: Denver wasted so much money acquiring Wilson, now cutting Wilson, 66 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: it leaves the Broncos with an eighty five million dollars 67 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 2: dead cap hit for twenty twenty four, the largest in 68 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: NFL history by a mile. If you're scoring at home, 69 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 2: and I hope you are. Russell Wilson won eleven games 70 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: as a Bronco for a total of one hundred and 71 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: twenty four million guaranteed, so Denver paid three times more 72 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 2: per win. They paid about eleven and a half million 73 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 2: dollars per win for Russell Wilson while he went eleven 74 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 2: to nineteen, and the forty nine ers paid for brock 75 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: Perty and his entire four year contract that checks in 76 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: at about three point seven million dollars total. Denver has 77 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 2: had a decade of struggling, but this brings them to 78 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: a completely new low. Additionally, what does this really do 79 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,799 Speaker 2: for Russell Wilson's legacy? He arrived in Denver, he hoped 80 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: to emulate Peyton Manning's career in e stretch with the Broncos, 81 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 2: which included a Super Bowl ring and another appearance, even 82 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 2: though he lost ironically to Russell Wilson's Seahawks. But there 83 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: are those who honestly thought Russell Wilson was on a 84 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame path. Now he's thirty five and he's jobless, 85 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 2: or maybe not for long. But the truth of the 86 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: matter is he still has a chance to redeem himself 87 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: and he still has a chance to go down as 88 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 2: a bust. Can't make this stuff up. Where did both 89 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: sides go from here? Well, Russell's gonna have options. Look, 90 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 2: he was twenty six and he threw twenty six touch 91 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 2: thousand and eight interceptions last year, QB rating in ninety eight. 92 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 2: But I think Sean Payton hated him, hated him, and 93 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: I mean that hate with a capital H. Right now, 94 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 2: I guess he visited Pittsburgh on Friday Atlanta, maybe in 95 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: the mix, maybe even New England. He might have to, 96 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 2: you know, accept the lesser rules of bridge quarterback. We're 97 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: even a backup. You must really want to get rid 98 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: of Russell Wilson if you're gonna make Jared stid Him 99 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: your starter, who didn't exactly let it up with the Raiders. 100 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: Jared stid Him with all the respect. Remember, just two 101 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: years ago, Denver gave up five picks, two first rounders, 102 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 2: three players for Wilson, then signed into a five year, 103 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: two hundred and forty two million dollar contract, probably the 104 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 2: worst trade you could argue, the worst trade in NFL history. 105 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: Forget Lou Brock for Ernie Burley, go ahead and look 106 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: it up. So when Russell Wilson was informed Tuesday h'd 107 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 2: be released, it marked the end of an incredibly underwhelming 108 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 2: tenure in Denver and solidifies the fact that the Broncos 109 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: trade for him, I'm going to have to say, is 110 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: go down to the worst trade in NFL history. I mean, 111 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: I could go on and on and drone on and 112 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 2: on about the depths of despair that Bronco fans must 113 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 2: feel about this completely failed experiment. Well, it wasn't an experiment. 114 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: And it just wasn't Sean Payton's guy. Hey, we're going 115 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: to delve into it a little bit later and maybe 116 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: Saturday night in the Bernie Fodder Show. I'll get you 117 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: into a little bit more detail, some things that may 118 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: really cause you to scratch your head. And of course 119 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: we've certainly got NFL free agency coming up. We've got 120 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 2: some odd, idiosyncratic stories of the likes I haven't seen 121 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 2: in quite a while coming up at the bottom of 122 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: the hour after Kevin figures update. And'll probably bringing the 123 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 2: crew on this one. You know, in this day and age, 124 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: given ticket prices, I know it can cost an arm 125 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: and a leg to go to a game, but not 126 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: literally an arm and a leg. Work with me. I'll 127 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,559 Speaker 2: fill in the blanks. But hey, we're in the throws 128 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: of spring training. Lots to talk about. There are a 129 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: big time storylines in Major League Baseball. We've got to 130 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: dive into it. Nobody better than Larry Sorenson, ten year 131 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 2: Major leaguer, thirty year broadcaster. We'll have him up in 132 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: just the second.

We'll see how the rest 173 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 5: of the weekend goes. 174 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: And as they say, that's that's baseball. 175 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 5: Uh So, when you think you've got to figure it out, 176 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 5: it throws you the biggest curve ball you've ever seen. 177 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: In your life. You're you know, Duke's face in a 178 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 2: lefty who broke their bats last time. Duke hasn't beat 179 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 2: you in eight years, fifty eight degrees in drizzling, not 180 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 2: great night for hitters, and look what happens. They're doing nothing, 181 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 2: but you know, hitting the ball around the park. Let's 182 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 2: started back. 183 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 7: With everybody makes the big pitchers duel, and it just 184 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 7: didn't happen. Neither pitture was very sharp. But that's what 185 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 7: makes it so much fun. You never know. 186 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: That's right, that's exactly right. Greatest game invented my view. 187 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 2: Let's start backwards tonight. How are things going with pitch logic. 188 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: It's a revolutionary baseball that you have been a part 189 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: of since day one. It's now sounds like it's becoming 190 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: more mainstream. Yeah, very much so. 191 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 5: And we've got a number of teams in the top 192 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 5: twenty five in college using it. We've got a number 193 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 5: of major league franchises that are using it up and 194 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 5: down the organization for everything from scouting out in the 195 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 5: sticks they're going and giving its players and getting all 196 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 5: of their pitch numbers and metrics from that down to 197 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 5: their rehab departments at the major league level. 198 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 7: So it's a very exciting time. 199 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 5: The ball is getting very very popular and as you said, 200 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 5: getting into the mainstream. 201 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 7: But it's just the name recognition as you go around 202 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 7: and I spent a lot of time talking to scouts yesterday. 203 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 5: It's a very well heard of and well respected organization. 204 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 7: It's been a lot of fun to grow with. 205 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 2: It, there's no question. And of course, a small town 206 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: in Michigan, Nova, Michigan. Their high school baseball team won 207 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,959 Speaker 2: the state championship last year, had three pitchers go to 208 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 2: Division One. And by the way, they happen to use 209 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 2: the pitch logic ball there. So there's that. Folks, look 210 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 2: it up if you aspire to greet your ceiling, something 211 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 2: you want to take a look at. There's so many 212 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: storylines heading into the twenty twenty four baseball so he's 213 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: not sure where to start, but I'll start with a 214 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 2: couple of organizations you're familiar with, Milwaukee and Ounkland. They're 215 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas. It'll be a big League Saturday, 216 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 2: big League week on Saturday. When you heard the Oakland 217 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: A's were moving Las Vegas, did you have any thoughts? 218 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: Did you have any kind of kneede jerk reaction. 219 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 7: It was one of my former teams. 220 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 5: I played for the Age in nineteen eighty four. 221 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 7: I was a free agent. 222 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 5: It was a team I elected to go to because 223 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 5: I thought we had a real solid chance to make 224 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 5: some noise and possible postseason playing. It just didn't work 225 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 5: out for us. But it's hard to watch a franchise 226 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 5: that has got so. 227 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 7: Much history and a dynasty like they had back in 228 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 7: the seventies and to see them move. 229 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 5: But even back when I played for them in eighty four, 230 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 5: you can see the beginning in the rumblings of the 231 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 5: stadium not being where it needed to be and the 232 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 5: fan base just not turning out consistently even at that 233 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 5: point in time, and a lot of reasons back and 234 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 5: forth through the years, ownership has been troublesome, and anytime 235 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,719 Speaker 5: ownership kind of gives up on the idea that we 236 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 5: need to win, and we need to win now. 237 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 7: You're going to have trouble with the franchise. 238 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 5: And I think that's kind of what happened to the 239 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 5: Oakland As it's gonna be an it's it's gonna get dirty. 240 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 7: I'm afraid it's gonna get. 241 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 5: Get to be an ugly kind of a fight. 242 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 7: With everything that's going on and getting a new. 243 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 5: Stadium built, and you you would know about that being 244 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 5: out there, but it's. 245 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 7: Just not real pretty, a real pretty situation right now. 246 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 2: No, especially since they're gonna need to find a place 247 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,719 Speaker 2: to play the next three years after this year in 248 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 2: the in the lease sins, what's interesting? And you kind 249 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 2: of danced around a little bit. You know, in Major 250 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 2: League Baseball will be an interesting phenomenon. You've got a 251 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 2: team with a two hundred ninety million dollars pay roll, 252 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 2: the Yankees. You got the A's and forty four million, 253 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 2: and those two teams have to compete multiple times a year. 254 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 2: You know, back in nineteen seventy nine, you were coming 255 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: off a great season in Milwaukee and I'm if memory serves, 256 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 2: you got a nice pay raise and Sporting News or 257 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 2: an article about salaries like this are going to ruin baseball. 258 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 2: I think they were giving you like four hundred grand. 259 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 7: Now, I'm sure he had four hundred grand at the time. 260 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 7: My way from thirty five thousand dollars to ninety five 261 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 7: thousand dollars. 262 00:13:58,600 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 2: There it is there, it is. 263 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, h I was the highest paid second year player in. 264 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 7: The American League. And people said exactly what he said. 265 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 7: The salaries like that, we're going to put base on 266 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 7: a business. 267 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 8: You know, it's just. 268 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 5: Weird because there's no accountability really, you know, clubs can 269 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 5: keep their payrolls. The payrolls are obvious, and after the 270 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 5: Sports Illustrated article many years ago, everybody's salary became public knowledge. 271 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 5: But what the owners are pocketing is not public knowledge, 272 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 5: and so we don't know how much capability they have 273 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 5: to compete and how many of the owners that you 274 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 5: know whose fortunes are rumored and own the franchises. Is 275 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 5: it just they want to turn a profit and so 276 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 5: they're not putting the money back into this property that 277 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 5: they own, or what exactly is their reasoning. 278 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 7: And based on is a hard game. It's a hard 279 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 7: game to run an organization. 280 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 5: But you know, money seems to be one factor that 281 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 5: can be the equalizac and some teams just aren't willing 282 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 5: to spend it. 283 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 2: And speaking of money, it setuys into the Dodgers because 284 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 2: now you've got your first seven hundred million dollars player. 285 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 2: History shows you can't buy a pennant. How much pressure, 286 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 2: I mean, consider the expectations you have with your Brewers 287 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: club and I'm standing club in seventy nine playing with 288 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: those kind of expectations with doctors are going to play 289 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 2: with this year? What's the general day to day atmosphere 290 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: in the clubhouse, knowing you've got a white house spilight 291 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 2: on you every. 292 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 5: Day, Bertie, I think what happens is once you cross 293 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 5: the lines, it's never a factor. It's all the outside 294 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 5: noise of people like you and me talking about it, 295 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 5: you know, late at night, and fans always expecting so much. 296 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 5: And the money puts on realistic expectations on people. 297 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 7: Just because you give a guy all. 298 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 5: Of that money doesn't mean he's going to hit six hundred, sure, 299 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 5: because it doesn't happen in baseball that way. 300 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 7: You know, you still go out and. 301 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 5: Have a great year, and the numbers are still going 302 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 5: to be somewhere along the lines of the averages that 303 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 5: you have produced throughout the course of your career. 304 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 7: But the money puts a different kind of target. 305 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 5: And I think we were talking about white Florest even 306 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 5: down to that level. You know, Nick Kurt's first base 307 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 5: is expected to be a first. 308 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 7: Round draft pick. 309 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 5: Well, it's getting pitched around all the time, and so 310 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 5: the game approaches you differently because of the expectations. And 311 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 5: if you don't see a strike, you can't hit the 312 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 5: ball until you start reaching for you and start making out. 313 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 7: So the pressure is different, no question, the bull's. 314 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 5: Eye on your back becomes huge. And what the Dodgers 315 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 5: have to do is just know that once they go 316 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 5: across the line, their organization is put together enough talent 317 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 5: and enough positions to be able to win the whole thing. 318 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 5: And don't try to do too much. Don't try to 319 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 5: win the whole thing all by yourself. 320 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: Talking with Larry Sorenson, ten, you're a major leaguer, former 321 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 2: All Star. I think your record will never be broken, Larry. 322 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 2: No one's retiring ten straight men in the All Star Game. 323 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 2: They don't even stand a field that long, you know. 324 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 2: And I got to ask you when you came off 325 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: the field, did Billy Martin at least shake your hand 326 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 2: and say, hey, nice effort out there, man, you hate 327 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 2: up three eatings? Did he? Did he stay to home? 328 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 9: Was twenty two years old that I was so. 329 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 5: Crazy, hyped up and the adrenaline was going so hard. 330 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 7: I'm not sure what all happened. 331 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 5: I do remember that I was supposed to go do 332 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 5: a postgame interview with Bob Yucker and they pumped me 333 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 5: for Larry Boa, who'd gotten a little Lindfield single off 334 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 5: because he got pulled at the same time, and so 335 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 5: they were leading me down a tunnel and all of 336 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 5: a sudden they reversed course on me. But it was 337 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 5: a great experience. You know, it's the kind of thing 338 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 5: that every kid dreams of you once you. 339 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 7: Make your goal of getting to the major leagues. So 340 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 7: it was a terrific night. 341 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 10: I was just a young, punk kid, young and dumb. 342 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: You know that, well, you knew how to You knew 343 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 2: how to disrupt the timing of hitters, and that's a 344 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 2: rare skill, my friend. So you know, as part of 345 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 2: your long tenured history in baseball, certainly as a player, 346 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 2: you know you were there for the workstop at in 347 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 2: eighty one and then later. The reason I bring that 348 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 2: up is Rob manfred asnounced his retirement. Two part question, 349 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 2: what do you think is legacy you'd be as a 350 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: commissioner And he's got one more CBA to straight out. 351 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 2: I think they're headed towards another bit of a collision 352 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 2: course because revenues are rising in baseball, but frankly, the 353 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 2: salaries on a percentage basis. Having back to your owner conversation, 354 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 2: are they, you know, hiding it under a mattress. 355 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 7: Well, a couple of things about that. 356 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 5: Number one, I think that Manford's legacy is like a 357 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 5: lot of different things. It's never as bad as it looks, 358 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 5: and it's never. 359 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 7: As good as it looks. You know, he hasn't destroyed. 360 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 5: The game of baseball, but there are some things where I. 361 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 7: Think he's held the game of baseball back and some of. 362 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 5: The ideas have not necessarily been great for the game 363 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 5: that you know, I saw line from somebody the other 364 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 5: day and they said, why is it that we're trying 365 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 5: to do things for the small majority of people that 366 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 5: really don't like the product with. 367 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 7: Some of the changes that we're making, And you know, 368 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 7: are we fixing just for the sake of fixing? 369 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 5: Because baseball has done a lot of things well through 370 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 5: the years, and it's. 371 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 7: Done pretty well by its own So. 372 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 5: I think that a lot of it, well, he'll go 373 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 5: down with a mixed bag, certainly, mostly on the negative side, 374 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 5: because that's most of what society is today is things 375 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 5: on the negative side. That's the easy fight to make 376 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 5: is the bad things about what's happened. 377 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 7: As far as the CBE goes. 378 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 5: I think you've got some accuracy in that that it's 379 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 5: going to be a nasty fight because there isn't enough 380 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 5: transparency to what some of the people can afford to do. 381 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 7: I remember playing for a team and you know, they 382 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 7: said that they're. 383 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 5: Losing money every They say, Louis Cardinals were losing. 384 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 7: Money every year. 385 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 5: Well, the Cardinal baseball team was losing money, but the 386 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 5: side company that mister Bush had that was doing all 387 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 5: the parking and concessions and all the ancillary businesses that 388 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 5: went along with. 389 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 7: It was doing quite well. 390 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 5: It's just that the Cardinals legally did not see that 391 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 5: kind of money from it because it was a different corporation. 392 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 5: So there's all kinds of ways that owner and this 393 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 5: was back in the eighties, so there's all kinds of 394 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 5: ways that in the business world, you can protect money, 395 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 5: you can take care of your money, and I think 396 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 5: that the owners have very smart people that have found 397 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 5: some ways to do it, but it mostly comes down 398 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 5: to the owner. And you know, Bud Seeley the same 399 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 5: way as an owner with Milwaukee, he was the biggest 400 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 5: fan that there was in the ballpark every single night, 401 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 5: and he wanted nothing more than to have his baseball 402 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,959 Speaker 5: team win. He didn't have the kind of money at 403 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 5: that time to throw around until they started making a 404 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 5: little bit when we got good back in the late seventies, 405 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 5: and then all of a sudden you saw him in 406 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 5: the World Series in eighty two when he. 407 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 7: Did spend some money for free agents. 408 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 5: So it's what direction ownership decides they want to go in. 409 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 5: And if it's the pocket profit, they're not going to 410 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 5: compete as well. 411 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 7: And if it's to go out and spend the money. 412 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 5: And get back to the community, then the ownership has 413 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 5: a chance to compete in the baseball world these days, 414 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 5: and they figure out the ways to get the money. 415 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: I still say it should have been voted a World 416 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 2: Series shure in eighty two or with the Brewers and 417 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 2: the Cardinals, and thanks to you being a part of 418 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 2: key trades, both those teams got to the World Series. 419 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 2: But I digress. I want to delve into a subject 420 00:20:58,280 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 2: matter I know you know a lot about, and it's 421 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 2: the regional sports network broadcasting mess. We had a situation 422 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: last year where Ballet Sports brought up the rights for 423 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: fourteen minut League Baseball franchises and when they went bankrupt, 424 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 2: So that's one hundred and eleven million dollars in the kiddy. 425 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 2: The Major League Baseball might not be getting this year. 426 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 2: So if someone who's worked as a regional and national 427 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: broadcaster and where how the game is played, how problematic 428 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 2: is that for baseball? 429 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 5: Well, I think it's a tremendous problem because it just 430 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 5: adds another factor to the. 431 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 7: Equation with the flow of cash for teams. 432 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 5: And Okay, you know, we're four games out in June. 433 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 5: Which way do we go and do we have the 434 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 5: money to do it? You know, how much are our 435 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 5: handside by the amount of cash that we have to 436 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:43,919 Speaker 5: be able to go and do something. And if you 437 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 5: can't plan on that revenue that maybe you had planned 438 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 5: on the year before, it just makes it that much 439 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 5: more difficult to. 440 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 7: Go out and try to make a move. 441 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 5: And so you say, okay, well, we've got a kid 442 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 5: that's in Double A that we can pay the minimum 443 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 5: to and hope for the best. Or we can try 444 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 5: to trade that kid along with somebody else for somebody 445 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 5: that's been doing it in the major league for four 446 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 5: years and has a better track record of doing it 447 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 5: at the highest level, and see which way we can go. 448 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 5: And if ownership says, well, we didn't get our TV money, 449 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 5: so we can't do it, there's your answer. 450 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: Larry as always, I wish there was more time. I 451 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 2: can't thank you enough for stand up so late.

This is one of the wackiest stories 513 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 2: I have heard, honest to God, in a long time. 514 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:17,959 Speaker 2: You all remember one of the first midnight Hours we 515 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 2: did was back in first or second week of January. 516 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 2: It involved the wild card playoff game in Kansas City 517 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 2: between the Dolphins and Chiefs. I believe the game was 518 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 2: played January thirteenth. It was on peacock and everybody who's 519 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: up in arms about do you want to pay for peacock? 520 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 2: Do you not want to pay for peacock? Well, you 521 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 2: know that was one of those games. It was it was. 522 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 2: It was really dubbed as this you know, freezer Bowl 523 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 2: or whatever the hell you want to call. It the 524 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 2: second coldest game in the history of the National Football League, 525 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 2: you know, behind the Ice Bowl that was played in 526 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty seven. I think the you know, Arrowhead has 527 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 2: seventy nine thousand people with the wins. I believe that 528 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 2: day it got to twenty four below. But let's not 529 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: split hairs because in addition to costing an arm and 530 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 2: a lad to get into an NFL playoff game this year, 531 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 2: you're not gonna believe this. You can't make it up. 532 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,719 Speaker 2: You know how you always see those knuckleheads that go 533 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 2: to a game and it's freezing outside, but no, no, 534 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 2: they got to take a shirt off and flex. And 535 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: it's usually a guy. It's built like a pair man, 536 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 2: not even a dad, bod forget forget their body being 537 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 2: a temple. It's more like an amusement park. It's always 538 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 2: some slob with a gut right, probably had, probably gets this, 539 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,959 Speaker 2: you know, if he gets his shoe shine. Gotta take 540 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 2: the guy's word for it. This is the part that's 541 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 2: not funny. Their Girlsman Burn Center in Kansas City treated 542 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 2: thirty patients who attended that game for frostbite. Well, a 543 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 2: lot of them thought it would be okay and it 544 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 2: would go away and it would heal. Not so much. 545 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: You're not gonna believe this. To date, twelve patients have 546 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 2: gone off under on amputation surgeries. Amputation surgeries and the 547 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 2: the quote that came out of the Grossman Burn Center, 548 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 2: the Research Medical Center was quote. Our specialized physicians and 549 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: expert care team continue to treat and monitor patients healing 550 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 2: to address their long term needs as we expect more 551 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 2: surgical procedures over the next two to four weeks as 552 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 2: their injuries evolve. Kevin, you got the floor your thoughts 553 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: on this whole ordeal. 554 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 4: Forgive me, Barun you got to run that one back 555 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 4: by me again. I'm sorry. It's work growing update over here. 556 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 2: My power sure, no problem. So some attendees of the 557 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 2: Chiefs game against the Dolphins when it was twenty four below, 558 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 2: you know, the knuckleheads to take their shirts off. My jokes, 559 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 2: you know, talk about costing you an arm and lay 560 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: to go to the game. Thirty have been treated for 561 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 2: frost by twelve have been the recipient of amputations because 562 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 2: of their jury suffered in a severe cold. Yeah, what's 563 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 2: your response to that. 564 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 4: I mean, you kind of signed up for, didn't you. 565 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 12: No one forced you to go to a football game 566 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 12: and not wear a shirt or not wear proper attire. 567 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 12: I mean, you grew up, or you're visiting Kansas City, 568 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 12: you knew what the weather conditions were going to be. 569 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 12: I know, I saw a couple of editorials on this thing. 570 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 12: The NFL has to change its rules and postponed games 571 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 12: if the temperature is going to be at a certain level. 572 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 4: It's like, no, you people, you make that choice. That's 573 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 4: on you. No one's forcing you to go to a 574 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 4: football game. 575 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 12: I'm as diehard of a fan from my team's as anybody, Bernie, 576 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 12: and I'm sorry. I know some people say that I 577 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 12: would risk life and limb to have my team win 578 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 12: a championship. 579 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 4: I'm not that guy. 580 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 12: I'm not giving up a tow for my team to 581 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 12: win a championship. It's not worth it for me. So 582 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 12: I feel terrible for these people. And from what I understand, 583 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 12: frostbite it can, you know, can be a lifelong thing. 584 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 12: It's a terrible burn that you could have to deal 585 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 12: with for the rest of your life. But it's just 586 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 12: not worth the sacrifice. 587 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 4: It's not. 588 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: The game was played seven weeks ago and they're still 589 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 2: treating patients. And you know, the irony is people talk about, 590 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 2: you know, famous games like the Miracle on Ice or 591 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 2: Doug Flutie's Pass or whatever they say years from now. 592 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 2: Three hundred thousand people have said they're at that game. 593 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: People are denying being at the game because they're embarrassed. 594 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 2: When they're you know, the doctor will ask you questions, 595 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 2: were worried, what were you doing? Well, you know, it's 596 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 2: hipped up to a blender since eight this morning, and 597 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,479 Speaker 2: I've decided I take my shirt off. Seemed like the 598 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 2: right thing to do. Ian, do you have any thoughts 599 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: on this saga? 600 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 13: I mean pretty much did oh what Kevin said, But 601 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 13: the only thing I would add is that they also 602 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 13: like it was one of the coldest games in NFL history, 603 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 13: and they were openly advertising that like this was big news, 604 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 13: that it was going to be one of the coldest 605 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 13: games ever recorded, and people still made the decision to 606 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 13: go with their shirts off. I mean, I'm with Kevin, 607 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 13: it's just like, you know, you made your own bed. 608 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 2: And all the more reason for these knuckleheads to do this, 609 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 2: because it's nonsensical. Whether it's thirty degrees or twenty four 610 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 2: below or forty eight, Why people do this is absolutely 611 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: beyond me, and you have to be sympathetic, but at 612 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 2: the same time, you're a little perturbed because this is 613 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 2: what you signed up for. If you didn't know any better, 614 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: then that's on you. And now, unfortunately, sadly, because I'm 615 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: not making fun of these people, I'm reporting this from 616 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 2: the standpoint of someone who's been doing this since nineteen 617 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 2: ninety four, and this story has me absolutely incredulous. People 618 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: literally paying an arm and a leg to go to 619 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 2: a game. I guess the good news if you're Chiefs fans, 620 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 2: at least they won. Coming up, I'm gonna preview two stories, 621 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 2: and these two stories are going to segue us into 622 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 2: the midnight hour.

A buzzer beater battle is 655 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 2: brewing after a bad call in a New Jersey high 656 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 2: school basketball game which costs a team a trip to 657 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 2: the state championship.

It's 662 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 2: real simple. I'm not going to a lot of detail here. 663 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 2: Very end of the game after a misshot by a teammate. 664 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 2: A Mansiquan player scoops up the rebound, puts it back, 665 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 2: he scores as time expired for the win, or so 666 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 2: everyone thought. After initially counting the shot, Well, the referees 667 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 2: got their heads together, made a rock pile. They waved 668 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 2: off the go ahead bucket that put Candid in the 669 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: state finals on Sunday, even though Massaquon had just made 670 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 2: the game winning basket, which video seems to have validated, 671 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 2: so Mansquan didn't. They brought their fight before a judge 672 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 2: on Thursday, arguing in Ocean County Superior Court the championship 673 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 2: game should be postponed until the final decision could be 674 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 2: made because there's quote the attorney attorney quoted argued quote 675 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 2: venue evidence of Mansiquan's game winning basket is present, irrefutable, 676 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: and conclusive. What followed next, however, was an absolute tragedy unquote, 677 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 2: and for some reason, for some unknown reason, the referee 678 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 2: changed the ref's opinion that made the original decision we make. 679 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 2: We need to right that wrong, said Michael gross, an, 680 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 2: attorney for Mansiquan. Well, there's the world it is, and 681 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 2: there's a world it ought to be. And in the 682 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 2: world there is the rules appear to be clear that 683 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 2: once the game is over, once game officials leave the 684 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 2: quote visual conflines of the playing court, the games concluded 685 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 2: the score is official. The New Jersey Interscholastic Athletic Association, 686 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 2: which does not use instant replay, went on to say 687 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 2: that quote the results could not then and cannot now 688 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 2: be changed. The defense attorney for Manseiquan said, quote the 689 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 2: case or Camden said, quotification ever been brought. There's no 690 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 2: authority under the law. It's frivolous to bring it. 691 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 8: Here. 692 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 2: Are we gonna go back and look at all thirty 693 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 2: two minutes and say, okay, blah blah bl let's let's 694 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 2: not go down that rabbit hole. I want to get folks' 695 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 2: response to this whole ordeal. How do these things happen? 696 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 2: What do you think is gonna happen? I hesitate to 697 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 2: ask you what you would do if you were the coach, 698 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 2: if you're the coach for Camden, would you have a 699 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 2: moral moment and say, guys, if we take the floor Saturday, No, 700 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 2: we really didn't win this game. This is tainted? Or 701 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 2: is that excessively idealistic? We're dealing with emotional human beings here. Now, 702 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 2: I will give you my two cents and what I 703 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 2: think I would do. But you don't know unless you're 704 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 2: in that situation. That's just simply a fact. One of 705 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,439 Speaker 2: the things I know I would do is I'd sleep 706 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 2: on it for twenty four hours. So I wake up 707 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 2: Wednesday morning and the first thing I'm gonna do is 708 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 2: have a confab with my coaches and say, listen, what 709 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 2: do we do? What do we do here? Do we 710 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 2: just say, Hey, bad calls are part of the game. 711 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 2: It happens. We won. We didn't cheat, We didn't do 712 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 2: anything to, you know, tilt the tilt the results in 713 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 2: our favor. Yes, we were the beneficiary of a bad call. 714 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 2: But you know page Don Dinkings during the nineteen eighty 715 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 2: five World Series between the Royals and Cardinals. I know 716 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 2: Kevin Figures knows about it. I all my listeners know 717 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 2: about that. But Google if you don't know, there have 718 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 2: been bad calls. How about the Saints Rams which put 719 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 2: the Rams in the Super Bowl a few years back. Okay, 720 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 2: we can again go down that rabbit hole. I'm not 721 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 2: going to do that. I'd get my coaches together and 722 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 2: I'd say, this is what I recommend we now get 723 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 2: the team together, we put it to a vote, because 724 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 2: it's really about the kids. I know that in Michigan 725 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 2: high school hockey about twenty years ago, two great teams 726 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 2: from our hometown got to the state finals, ended up 727 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 2: playing about six overtimes. The game got to about one 728 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 2: in the morning. The two coaches got together and say, hey, 729 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 2: this is it, man, these kids are dying out here. 730 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 2: I don't want someone to drop dead. We're going to 731 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 2: just declare co champions. And they went home and it 732 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 2: seemed like a good deal. People bitched and moon. No 733 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,760 Speaker 2: matter what happens in this people are going to complain, 734 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 2: people are gonna scream. No one's going to be one 735 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 2: hundred percent happy. Someone's going to be very unhappy. But 736 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 2: if I got the team together and said, do we 737 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,359 Speaker 2: do the right thing morally, we don't have to live 738 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,479 Speaker 2: with this the rest of our lives. And by the way, 739 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 2: coming up after the top of the hour, I will 740 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 2: share with you a very similar event that turn took 741 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 2: place during the nineteen thirty six Olympics that featured Jesse Owens. 742 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 2: They made a gentleman famous even though he didn't win. 743 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 2: I'll tell that story so do you morally say it's 744 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 2: wrong for us to take the floor as if we 745 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 2: belong in this game when we really didn't win. However, 746 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 2: we were the beneficiary of a bad call, or we 747 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 2: were on the wrong side of a bad call, or 748 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 2: again back to the situation of look, we won fair 749 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 2: and square, we didn't do anything wrong and the rest did. 750 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 7: So. 751 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,439 Speaker 2: I want to hear from the folks on that eight seven, seven, 752 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 2: nine to nine on Fox, the New Jersey High School 753 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 2: Championship basketball game supposed to be played Saturday, And to 754 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 2: the best of my knowledge, i've heard nothing to the 755 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 2: contrary that the game's delayed, that it's going to be played. 756 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 2: But you know darn well what everybody will be thinking 757 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 2: about when that game tips off. And I am not 758 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: casting judgment. The other thing we want to talk about, Yes, 759 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 2: Jake Paul versus Mike Tyson, it's really happening. Mike Tyson 760 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 2: is returning to the ring. You heard that right, He'll 761 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 2: face Jake Paul. Jake Paul's ten and one. Look, I 762 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 2: know people make fun of him. You know what, if 763 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 2: you've never been in the ring and you never trained, good, 764 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 2: get in the ring with him. See how it works. 765 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 2: Out for you. Okay, he's beaten. You all laughed at him. 766 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,959 Speaker 2: When he fought Nate Robinson, an NBA player, He knocked 767 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 2: him out, put him asleep quickly. Bet Askrin former UFC 768 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 2: Tyron Woodley twice put him to sleep. Anderson Silva, Nate 769 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: dia Is, Andre August. Now I know he lost to 770 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 2: Tommy Fury, who's seven to zero. You should see Fury's 771 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 2: first six opponents in those professional fights. Jake, Jake Paul 772 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 2: would have beaten all those guys. Fury was highly laudatory. Now, look, 773 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 2: as a society, we have been infatuated with gladiator sports 774 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: since the since time began. This is another one of those. 775 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 2: We'll talk about Mike Tyson here. Okay. He participated in 776 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 2: an eight round exhibition with Roy Jones Junior in July 777 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 2: twenty twenty and the fight ended for I believe it 778 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 2: ended in a draw. Tyson was at once the baddest 779 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 2: man on the planet. He's now fifty seven years old. 780 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 2: Jake Paul is twenty seven years old. All right, what 781 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 2: are your thoughts on that? Are you gonna throw up 782 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 2: in your mouth? Is it in enough? Muney? You will 783 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: you watch it? Will you not? Watch it. Do you 784 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 2: like these things? You don't like these things?

I just think the 818 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 14: best way to handle it. I mean, if you really 819 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 14: want to look at it, if the coach of the 820 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,240 Speaker 14: team that won the wrong way and they saw the video, 821 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:05,359 Speaker 14: I think they just should, you know, let the other 822 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 14: team that's really won go. I mean, that's what you 823 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 14: teach the kids, That's what education is all about. I 824 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 14: think if the two superintendents get together, but then you know, 825 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 14: it might not be like that. I mean if the 826 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 14: other team wanted to go, what is that the parents, 827 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 14: Even if the parents know it wasn't right, what are 828 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 14: you teaching your children? 829 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 10: You know, you got to look at it. 830 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 2: I agree with that. 831 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,240 Speaker 7: I think what they do, they're going to be interesting 832 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 7: to see what they do. 833 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 2: Hang on there for a second. So, Jim, your former referee, 834 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 2: Here's here's what baffles me. So one referee said it 835 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 2: was good, the other waved it off. The three got 836 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 2: into a huddle. How is it that the one took 837 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:50,760 Speaker 2: precedence over the other. What must that conversation have sounded like? Quickly, 838 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 2: if you could share with us, what were they talking about. 839 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:55,720 Speaker 7: In that instant? 840 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 10: I don't. 841 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 14: Every state has different rules, but I'm going by High 842 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,280 Speaker 14: School Federation eyeball rules. 843 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 7: It's always the trail. 844 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 14: Guy, the trail guy behind the play that has the 845 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 14: last call in a situation like that, and they go 846 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,760 Speaker 14: over that constantly when they have their meetings during the season. 847 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 14: I mean, they just don't go out and do this. 848 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,720 Speaker 14: You have meetings there in the season, you go over rules. 849 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 14: It's just on an emotional thing like that. I can't 850 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 14: believe that you had one saying it was good and 851 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 14: the other one is saying it wasn't and they didn't 852 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,799 Speaker 14: rectify it before they left the court, or maybe they 853 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,839 Speaker 14: just didn't have the intentional fortitude too. 854 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 2: I don't know. 855 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 7: I didn't see it at wasn't there. 856 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 14: I did see the video on TV, and it's like 857 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 14: in this day and age where we live with electronics 858 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 14: and all this stuff, I mean, that can't come involved. 859 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 14: But yeah, yeah, you get down to it, the superintendents 860 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 14: and the coach and the kids and if the parents 861 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 14: are going to teach the right thing. If the other 862 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 14: team won, you got to let them go. That'd be 863 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 14: the classiest thing to do. But if the other team 864 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,279 Speaker 14: goes knowing they didn't, they didn't really get it, they'll 865 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 14: prob me your question the next game. 866 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 6: Let me I know, right, you know, why would you 867 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 6: put your child through that? 868 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 2: You well, and that's the thing, Jim, I wish we 869 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 2: had more time.

Leave And I love Tyson. 945 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 2: He lives here in Vegas. I've talked him many times, 946 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 2: have tre minutes. Respect. He's won one fight in twenty years, 947 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 2: and I think people severely underestimate Jake Paul. I really, 948 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 2: I don't know what people make fun of him. I've boxed, 949 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 2: I've been on the ring. I go ahead, you got 950 00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 2: the last word. Your thoughts, you see ja. 951 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 16: Jake Paul has won against what professional boxer? 952 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 2: Okay, that's a fair point. That's a fair point. Well, 953 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,760 Speaker 2: Tyson enough, Fur didn't take his ass. He went on points, 954 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 2: and Fury after the fight said, he said, dude, you're 955 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,359 Speaker 2: not who I thought you were. My goodness, if you'd 956 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 2: taken up boxing when you were six years old like me. 957 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:02,280 Speaker 2: The first seven professional its Fury had. We're against tomato cans. 958 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 2: He never should have fought him first. But when you 959 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 2: put tyro and Woodley to sleep and you play, I 960 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 2: mean they said this before he finds. 961 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 16: Robinson to sleep. That a basketball player is not a boxer. 962 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 2: No, but he's falling. 963 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 16: How many boxes has Jake Paul beat. 964 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,360 Speaker 2: Well, the question you're asking is how many professional boxers 965 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 2: as he's been. He hasn't. He hasn't, but he would 966 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 2: have beaten. Look at the records of the first six 967 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,919 Speaker 2: guys and Fury fought they were tomato cans. He would 968 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 2: have beaten all of him. He never should have opened 969 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 2: up your points. Duty noted. That's why listen. I love 970 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 2: it the most boring conversations and when everybody agrees. So 971 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 2: the bottom line is you believe Jake Paul's in big trouble. 972 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 2: We'll talk about this before July. So I I duly 973 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 2: noted any quick thoughts on the basketball game. 974 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 16: Not really, it is what it is. It's college basketball. 975 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 2: Okay, Thanks Steve. I appreciate you checking in. We'll talk 976 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 2: to you again.

It's actually a high 978 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: school basketball game. Mike in the Bay Area, welcome back in. 979 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 9: Hey, what's going on? 980 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:11,360 Speaker 17: Bernie? 981 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 8: How are you? 982 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 2: Good man? Thanks? 983 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:19,720 Speaker 9: So, I you know, Jake Paul should beat Mike Tyson 984 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 9: like of course should be. I'm rooting for Tyson. I 985 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 9: need him. I need him to win to uphold some 986 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:32,360 Speaker 9: of the delusions I have about my youth. Right. So, uh, 987 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 9: you know, Mike wins, I can still run a sub five, 988 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 9: you know, I need I need that.

But if Tyson fought Muhammad Ali, both 1036 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 18: of them in their primes, I think Tyson would have 1037 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 18: knocked him out in the first round. 1038 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 2: Mmm.

You know, I think 1045 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 6: this guy, Jake Paul is crazy like a fox. This 1046 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 6: this may end up being one of the biggest grossing 1047 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 6: fights in terms of gate receipts and history. I'm already 1048 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 6: thinking about driving six or seven hours down there, and 1049 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 6: I can't be alone. You know, everyone wants to watch. 1050 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 6: He's a debuty guy. He knows how to rile up 1051 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 6: the audience. I can't believe I'm saying this. Everyone is 1052 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 6: firmly in the Mike Tyson camp. They want to see 1053 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 6: this guy get. 1054 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 7: His block knocked off off. 1055 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 6: He may be he may be a good guy. He 1056 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 6: may be a bad guy, but it's like Ali, he 1057 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,319 Speaker 6: knows how to rile up to rile up of the 1058 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:19,359 Speaker 6: old traditionalist. 1059 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 5: You know. 1060 00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 6: Remember Satchel Paige was Rookie of the Year at age 1061 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 6: fifty eight. So I don't care if that footage is 1062 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 6: four years old of Mike Tyson moving around the ring. 1063 00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 6: All he needs is one or two punches and that 1064 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,799 Speaker 6: kid will go down. I mean that's I mean, he's 1065 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 6: got like you said, it's a puncher's chance, that's all, 1066 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 6: and that will sell one hundred and ten, one hundred 1067 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 6: thousand seat tickets. You're a Midwest guy, how many how 1068 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 6: many championship fights did you get to go to?

Nothing's going to be going on before 1075 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 6: training camp in July twentieth, So I mean, the sky's 1076 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 6: the limit. That's that's my opinion. 1077 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 2: I stay on the line, Steve, because well here's what's interesting. 1078 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 2: And you're right the fights in Dallas at AT and 1079 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 2: T Stadium, we're all talking about it.

November thirteenth, nineteen eighty two, when 1086 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 2: Duku Kim fought Ray Boobu Mancini here at Caesar's Palace 1087 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 2: they used to build the Wow.

They may dance around or what. 1104 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 2: No, no, no, not these guys. There's never going to 1105 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 2: fight where Jake Paul didn't engage and he's fighters and 1106 00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 2: he fought. 1107 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, do you think you think Mike Tyson is going 1108 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:36,959 Speaker 6: to sit there and dance. 1109 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 2: Well hell no, no, no, no, no, no, no no. 1110 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,800 Speaker 2: If Tyson catches him with the left foot and breaks 1111 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,000 Speaker 2: his ribs or something, but we're going to see a 1112 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 2: brawl here. We're going to see. There's not a dot 1113 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:50,919 Speaker 2: in my mind. We're going to see a brawl. Those 1114 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 2: are their styles and they're not going to change their styles. 1115 00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 2: So this is not going to be Pacchio and uh 1116 00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 2: and In and Floyd. It's not gonna be a defensive 1117 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 2: fight at all. 1118 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 8: You know. 1119 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,719 Speaker 2: But they called the sport boxing. It's not punching. This 1120 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 2: will be punching. Okay, Tyson wants to knock him out. 1121 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 2: And the longer the fight goes, obviously, the longer it's 1122 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 2: gonna favor Jake Paul. But look, we want to see 1123 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:21,360 Speaker 2: what's gonna happen and Jake Paul has reached a certain 1124 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:24,160 Speaker 2: plateau in life because people are now rooting for him 1125 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 2: to fail.

Huge 1142 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 19: payday for both sides, no matter who wins, no matter 1143 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 19: who loses, it's gonna. 1144 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 2: Be a payday. 1145 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 19: But honestly, the person that's really gonna win, or the 1146 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 19: entity that's really gonna win, is Netflix. That's who's really 1147 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 19: gonna win. I mean, don't get me wrong, we have 1148 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 19: plenty of people with the streaming services. Mike Tyson, he's 1149 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 19: gonna do his thing. I honestly don't think it's gonna 1150 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:28,240 Speaker 19: be a knockout like somebody sleeping on the canvas or 1151 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 19: something of that nature. But at the end of the day, 1152 00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 19: I do think that it's a money grab. It feels 1153 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 19: like a big pinata is going to be looming over 1154 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 19: the stadium or the arena or the ring, and the 1155 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 19: first person that gets the first drop to the knee 1156 00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:47,880 Speaker 19: or something is gonna be That's who's gonna get the money. 1157 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 2: Wooley, because Tyrone Woodley rocked Jake Paul with right and 1158 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 2: he's took the punch. 1159 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 20: He took it in punch he did. 1160 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:00,439 Speaker 7: And it's funny. 1161 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 19: It's funny that you mentioned that because even that, you know, 1162 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 19: because the biggest, the biggest things about boxing that a 1163 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 19: lot of people don't realize is is that no matter 1164 00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 19: if you lose, you still get some type of person money, 1165 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,400 Speaker 19: You still get some type of prize money. 1166 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:16,919 Speaker 10: And again he did. 1167 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,720 Speaker 19: He got knocked pretty good, but he stood up, he 1168 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 19: stood his ground. Hell, there's a lot of fighters out 1169 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 19: there that stand up and hold their ground. 1170 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 10: And then to the other call. 1171 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 19: This point, Yeah, he didn't find a lot of boxers 1172 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 19: he hasn't fought a lot of boxers, Okay, Nick Robinson, Yeah, sure, whatever. 1173 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:35,919 Speaker 19: He dibbles and dabbles. You know herschel Walker has done 1174 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:38,919 Speaker 19: the same thing. However, when you're talking about a guy 1175 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 19: who's been fighting and training and this is all that 1176 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 19: he's ever lived, breathed and eate for forty years of 1177 00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 19: if I was a kid since Simbaka remember his first fight, 1178 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 19: that's that Mike Tyson has ever done. So Yeah, Jake 1179 00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,320 Speaker 19: Paul is in for a real awakening. But at the 1180 00:58:58,360 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 19: end of the day, I think it's more of an 1181 00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 19: exhibition sin Stall fight more than an actual Lennox Lewis 1182 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 19: versus versus Tyson or you know, Mayweather versus the pachia 1183 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:11,880 Speaker 19: or something about nature. 1184 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,480 Speaker 2: Good stuff is always enjoy your weekend, man, Thank you? 1185 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:15,919 Speaker 17: Hey? 1186 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 2: Uh James in Los Angeles?

Might have beaten Marciano had 1245 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 2: he been younger. So look, it's a young man's it's 1246 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 2: a young man's game, and anything can happened. And I 1247 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 2: am really looking forward to I really am because of 1248 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 2: the name, the name recognition with Mike Tyson. 1249 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 10: Of course, right, But Jake Paul has no it has 1250 01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 10: nowhere near the competition that Tyson's with the Wars and 1251 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:21,200 Speaker 10: holy Field with the Wars, with the you know, I 1252 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 10: remember who did he fight, Uh, Peter mcmaley and he 1253 01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 10: lost it. 1254 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 2: That's the problem.

He's fighting MMA former celebrities and 1314 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 20: things like that. But MMA fighters are not boxers. No 1315 01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 20: has forgotten more than this guy knows. If he decides 1316 01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 20: to go head to head and brawl with Mike Tyson 1317 01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:44,840 Speaker 20: and fight his game, Mike Tyson's gonna catch him. 1318 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 2: I've been in the ring. I gotta tell you. Okay, 1319 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 2: here's where you're right. Jake Paul does not have the 1320 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 2: footwork to box Tyson. If Tyson decides he wants to 1321 01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 2: come from a couple of different angles he hasn't seen before, 1322 01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 2: he can be and Jake Paul could be in real trouble. 1323 01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:06,280 Speaker 2: But to your point, Bark, there's not a doubt in 1324 01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 2: my mind that's exactly what Jake Paul is gonna do. 1325 01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 2: You can see his game plan six blocks away. He's 1326 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:14,200 Speaker 2: gonna come at him and try to knock him out. 1327 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 2: He loads up that right hand driving into the fight. 1328 01:06:17,320 --> 01:06:19,600 Speaker 2: You know you see that right hand loaded. He's waiting 1329 01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:21,120 Speaker 2: to throw it. Go ahead, bark. 1330 01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 20: I love it if he does that. He's playing right 1331 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:30,480 Speaker 20: into Mike Tyson's wheelhouse. You cannot brawl with a brawler. 1332 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:35,360 Speaker 20: Mike Tyson is a natural born knockout puncher. You can't 1333 01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 20: teach that skill. Okay, So Jake Paul, I don't believe 1334 01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 20: he's gonna You know what, the only reason Roy Jones lasted. 1335 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:48,160 Speaker 20: Roy Jones ran okay, he deflected, He did not fight 1336 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:50,160 Speaker 20: him head to head. He did not want to. Paul, 1337 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:52,560 Speaker 20: you gotta be out your mind if you want a 1338 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 20: ball with Mike Tysons. I'm telling you I'm Ernie, I 1339 01:06:56,640 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 20: mean Bernie. I'm going to bet heavy on Tyson. I'm 1340 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:04,840 Speaker 20: trying to tell you right now. I love it because 1341 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 20: I want people to expose Jake Paul. He's made millions. 1342 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:13,280 Speaker 20: I give a young boy credit because he's tapped into it. 1343 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:17,440 Speaker 20: But like I said, it's trash celebrity sports. 1344 01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:18,320 Speaker 10: And I'm tired of it. 1345 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:22,360 Speaker 20: He's not a boxer. He's a mediocre amateur. He's not 1346 01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:26,000 Speaker 20: for anybody. So that's just what I had to express. 1347 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:27,960 Speaker 2: All right, Bark, don't be a stranger, man. We do 1348 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:30,800 Speaker 2: this every Friday night at midnight Pacific. Thanks for calling in. 1349 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:32,840 Speaker 7: Hey listen, I'm from DC. 1350 01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:35,880 Speaker 20: I get off two three o'clock in the morning. I 1351 01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:37,760 Speaker 20: always got your show. I'm gonna call you back. 1352 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:38,000 Speaker 8: Man. 1353 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 2: I appreciate you, man, I appreciate you. All right, all right, 1354 01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:42,480 Speaker 2: very good, very good. Now I want to say this 1355 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 2: and I want to get to Kevin. There's one thing 1356 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:48,560 Speaker 2: that Bark kind of alluded to. We haven't really talked 1357 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 2: about this. There's a reason boxing had weight classes. Should 1358 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:55,960 Speaker 2: Jake Paul. I can look at his body tech, No 1359 01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:57,919 Speaker 2: way he would have ever been a heavyweight, No way, 1360 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:02,560 Speaker 2: Mike Tyson is a heavyweight. Big difference in punching power 1361 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 2: and the ability to take a punch. So I'm telling you, 1362 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,280 Speaker 2: the unfortunate thing is this darn fight is four months away, 1363 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 2: and I wish it was tomorrow. For quite frankly, all right, 1364 01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:16,240 Speaker 2: Kevin figures, let's get your thoughts tonight. Let's start with 1365 01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:19,240 Speaker 2: Tyson Jake Paul, because that seems to be the flavor 1366 01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:19,960 Speaker 2: of the month tonight. 1367 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely. 1368 01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 12: You know, I respect, first of all, just as a 1369 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 12: business Jake and his brother and what the empire they've 1370 01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 12: created becoming boxers spurning off of their YouTube and social 1371 01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 12: media profiles has been nothing short of amazing. From just 1372 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,040 Speaker 12: a pure business standpoint, I think they've done a phenomenal 1373 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:36,639 Speaker 12: job there. 1374 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 2: Now. 1375 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 12: I'm probably an old fogie when it comes to boxing. 1376 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 12: I know you're a boxing historian and fan. Two just 1377 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:44,840 Speaker 12: it's one of my favorite sports of all times, and 1378 01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:47,320 Speaker 12: just remembering, you know, as a kid watching some really 1379 01:08:47,360 --> 01:08:50,919 Speaker 12: great fights, whether there's Margarito and Coto, Corrals and Castillo 1380 01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:53,479 Speaker 12: was phenomenal. I remember watching back in the day. I 1381 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:55,559 Speaker 12: just feel like, to a certain degree, the sport is 1382 01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:57,280 Speaker 12: it's not what it used to be. You don't have 1383 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:00,120 Speaker 12: the great fighters that you had even fifteen twenty years ago, 1384 01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:02,840 Speaker 12: and there's almost a bastardization of it where it's turned 1385 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 12: into a bit of a gimmick. We've talked about how 1386 01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:07,479 Speaker 12: Jake Paul has not really fought many boxers. He's fought 1387 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:09,960 Speaker 12: a bunch of UFC fighters, and many of those guys 1388 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:12,320 Speaker 12: have been on the back nines of their careers. Tyron 1389 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,799 Speaker 12: Whitley was a phenomenal UFC fighter. He was also a grappler. 1390 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 12: He was a wrestler. He wasn't a striker, so he 1391 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 12: was out of his element even being in a boxing ring. Yes, 1392 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:22,280 Speaker 12: he was a professional fighter. It's impressive that he beat him. 1393 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:24,599 Speaker 12: I'm not taking that away from Jake Paul. I guess 1394 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:26,719 Speaker 12: my only thing, Bernie, is if Jake Paul is serious 1395 01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 12: about being an actual boxer and wants to box, I 1396 01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 12: like to see him actually be part of the boxing 1397 01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:34,480 Speaker 12: rankings and work work his way up. Fight Ryan Garcia, 1398 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 12: you know, fight Lomachenko, fight Keith Thurman, get into the 1399 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,439 Speaker 12: ring and become an actual professional boxer. Now, maybe those 1400 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:41,800 Speaker 12: guys don't want to fight him because they have a 1401 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:42,400 Speaker 12: lot to lose. 1402 01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:44,800 Speaker 2: Maybe that's what a lot of guys half turned him 1403 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:48,000 Speaker 2: down and hasn't made the public. You're not wrong, Kevin. 1404 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,120 Speaker 2: And if you look at for instance, furies first six opponents, 1405 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean he fought one guy that was like five 1406 01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:56,720 Speaker 2: and seven. Yeah, a lot of guys turn him down. 1407 01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:59,519 Speaker 2: You're not wrong about anything you just said. 1408 01:09:59,560 --> 01:09:59,720 Speaker 8: There. 1409 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:02,560 Speaker 2: Think what we have here as a situation is that 1410 01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:06,080 Speaker 2: he's kind of painted himself into a corner. And you're 1411 01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:08,559 Speaker 2: not wrong about these MMA guys. The only the only 1412 01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 2: world I throw a flag, he says. I've trained enough. 1413 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,320 Speaker 2: You can google Dennis Doodle and spelled with one n 1414 01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 2: I trained with Dennis. He's still with middleweight. He's like 1415 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 2: twenty eight and five. Great guy, great coach. I've been 1416 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:20,559 Speaker 2: in the ring with him. Now, you wouldn't have let 1417 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:23,599 Speaker 2: it all out. I box guys who were not even 1418 01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:27,639 Speaker 2: club boxers. I've sparred with amateurs. Here's the thing that 1419 01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 2: I can't I can't pick on Jake Paul whenever he 1420 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:35,040 Speaker 2: got in the ring with these MMA guys, whether it's 1421 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:41,960 Speaker 2: Ben Askrin or or you know Silva. I'm having a 1422 01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 2: brain crunt there Tyron and Woodley. 1423 01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:46,800 Speaker 4: Whatever one of his last fight. 1424 01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 2: Okay, So these guys are warriors that know what it's like. 1425 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:55,479 Speaker 2: They have the combat warrior mentality. Irrespective of their age, 1426 01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 2: irrespective of their modality or the sport they are in. 1427 01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,640 Speaker 2: There is a there is a more. There is a mentality. 1428 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 2: Did I would see even an amateur boxers that I 1429 01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:06,599 Speaker 2: didn't see in regular Joe's just working out. It's a 1430 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:08,559 Speaker 2: mental thing. So you're gonna get two guys in there, 1431 01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 2: both believing they can win. But I don't disagree with 1432 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:14,000 Speaker 2: anything he said. Hang right there for it. Just the second, Kevin, 1433 01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:15,840 Speaker 2: I want to go back to the phones. We're joined 1434 01:11:15,880 --> 01:11:21,760 Speaker 2: by Howard. I guess some Boulder, Colorado. Boulder. Howard, Are 1435 01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:27,800 Speaker 2: you there, my man? Yes, Hi, Hi, you're up. You're up, Howard, 1436 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:28,599 Speaker 2: you're on the air, buddy. 1437 01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:34,760 Speaker 11: Oh okay, I wanted to talk about the the basketball thing. 1438 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 2: Go right ahead, let's hear from you. 1439 01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:37,679 Speaker 8: Okay. 1440 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:41,880 Speaker 11: I think this is totally ridiculous what this school is doing. 1441 01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:47,559 Speaker 11: Bad calls are part of sports at all levels. I mean, 1442 01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 11: you didn't see the Saints taking it to court for 1443 01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 11: the bad call that tasked them going to the Super Bowl. 1444 01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:00,640 Speaker 11: You didn't see Jim Tunney when he he costs a 1445 01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:06,240 Speaker 11: guy a no hitter. They didn't take it to court. 1446 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:10,799 Speaker 11: And I think that the state in New Jersey should 1447 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:15,800 Speaker 11: go after this school for using school funds and taxpayer 1448 01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 11: dollars to bring this to court. 1449 01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:22,880 Speaker 2: You know what, that is a very very enlightened opinion, Howard, 1450 01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 2: and I appreciate that because it's valid. It's very valid. 1451 01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:28,840 Speaker 2: Anything quickly on Tyson, Jake. 1452 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 9: Paul I just hope. 1453 01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,080 Speaker 11: I just hope Mike Tyson knocks him out in like 1454 01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:39,040 Speaker 11: thirty seconds. 1455 01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:41,800 Speaker 2: That seems to be a popular opinion, all right, Howard, 1456 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:46,360 Speaker 2: don't be a stranger here Friday nights the midnight hour, Kevin, 1457 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:47,880 Speaker 2: did you have anything else to finish up? I kind 1458 01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:48,680 Speaker 2: of jumped in on you. 1459 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:50,880 Speaker 12: There, No, no, no, that was all I was just 1460 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,559 Speaker 12: as again, as someone who's a fan of the boxing, 1461 01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 12: of boxing as a sport in general, I think it's 1462 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,120 Speaker 12: just sad where it's gone through the last ten years 1463 01:12:58,240 --> 01:12:59,920 Speaker 12: or so. We just don't have a lot of great fire. 1464 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 12: Like I'm looking forward to Usik and Fury, but that's 1465 01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:05,000 Speaker 12: not necessarily Oh my god, five of the century for 1466 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,719 Speaker 12: the heavyweight championship is just it's kind of what we got, 1467 01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 12: you know. So Jake Paul is kind of taking advantage 1468 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 12: to a certain situation and just making a bit of 1469 01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 12: a spectacle out of it. 1470 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:15,960 Speaker 4: Again, it's a level of success. 1471 01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:18,599 Speaker 12: I don't begrudge him that, but personally, I don't want 1472 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:20,479 Speaker 12: to see a sixty year old Mike Tyson fight Jake 1473 01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,520 Speaker 12: Paul and what's going to be an exhibition spectacle. 1474 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 4: It does not appeal to me, that's all. 1475 01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:31,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is fair. It's a curiosity thing for me. 1476 01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:32,920 Speaker 2: Ian Roddy, your thoughts. 1477 01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:37,000 Speaker 4: On the on the Mike Tyson or. 1478 01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:38,759 Speaker 2: They either one? Either one? 1479 01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:39,439 Speaker 4: Well, I mean. 1480 01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:41,680 Speaker 13: I I've got some thoughts on both. I mean the 1481 01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:45,120 Speaker 13: Jake Paul thing. I mean, to be able to say 1482 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,720 Speaker 13: I beat Mike Tyson, how cool would that be? I 1483 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:50,960 Speaker 13: mean that alone makes it worth it to me, like 1484 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:52,760 Speaker 13: for him to be able to do it. But I'm 1485 01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:56,520 Speaker 13: with Kevin, it's like until he actually faces real boxers, 1486 01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 13: not that Mike Tyson isn't, but we all know, like 1487 01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,080 Speaker 13: there's always like a but with all these guys that 1488 01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:02,920 Speaker 13: he fights and beats and if that's the way that 1489 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:04,800 Speaker 13: he wants to to make it. 1490 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:07,519 Speaker 2: And you're not wrong, but everybody's doubted him since he 1491 01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 2: fought Nate Robinson. Ah, he's an NBA player. You're not 1492 01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,000 Speaker 2: gonna beat him. Definitely put him asleep in thirty seconds. 1493 01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:16,880 Speaker 2: But anyway, good, So there's always a butt. I'm with you, 1494 01:14:17,520 --> 01:14:20,120 Speaker 2: but it's it's a six to one half a dozen 1495 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 2: of the other. With Jake Paul. It's hard to take 1496 01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 2: him serious. But you keep putting guys in front of 1497 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:27,840 Speaker 2: him and they're they're they're Warriors anyway. 1498 01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:30,320 Speaker 13: I also just think like, if that's how he wants 1499 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:32,799 Speaker 13: to make a career, is just these fights that aren't 1500 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,519 Speaker 13: you know, necessarily gonna be at that exact, you know, 1501 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:38,400 Speaker 13: top level as these you know, Anthony Joshua and those 1502 01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:42,840 Speaker 13: big boxing bouts. Fine, if he's just gonna do these 1503 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,680 Speaker 13: Netflix things against has beens and so you know, like 1504 01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:47,680 Speaker 13: you know, not to call Mike Tyson that, but you know, 1505 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 13: I don't want to be disrespectful, but you know what 1506 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 13: I mean, Uh, then fine, But it's just like he 1507 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 13: needs to kind of pick a lane here. You know, 1508 01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:56,120 Speaker 13: if that's what he's gonna do, then that's what he's 1509 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 13: gonna do. 1510 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 4: But I don't try to box. 1511 01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 2: Quite honest honestly, because there are plenty of insiders who 1512 01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:06,600 Speaker 2: have shared their boxers that turned down Jake Paul that 1513 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:09,040 Speaker 2: don't want to fight them. And yet if you can 1514 01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:10,640 Speaker 2: make this kind of money, I mean, this is a 1515 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 2: spectacle and we're here for it. But good stuff, and 1516 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 2: coming up, I want to draw comparison. We'll continue as 1517 01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:19,680 Speaker 2: more of your calls eight seven, seven, nine to nine 1518 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 2: on Fox, but I want to draw a comparison ever 1519 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:26,519 Speaker 2: so quickly to the high school basketball game, and this 1520 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 2: coach has a bit of a moral dilemma. They're gonna 1521 01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:31,840 Speaker 2: take the floor and everybody's gonna know the video shows 1522 01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:35,600 Speaker 2: they really didn't win the game. But what are you 1523 01:15:35,640 --> 01:15:38,000 Speaker 2: gonna do? Like the other caller brought up a great point, right, 1524 01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:41,880 Speaker 2: you had the New Orleans Saints situation. You had the 1525 01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:45,200 Speaker 2: no hitter in the Detroit Tigers game a few years ago. 1526 01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 2: We're going to get to all that. I want to 1527 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,960 Speaker 2: draw a quick parallel, and Bill Jacksonville will get to 1528 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 2: your call when we come back.

Bill, keep the train going. 1541 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:28,960 Speaker 8: How you doing, guys? The Tyson the Tyson thing and 1542 01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:33,080 Speaker 8: Jake Bull. It's some money grabbed. Let them have their money, 1543 01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,000 Speaker 8: let them have some fun. It's a show. It's not 1544 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:37,280 Speaker 8: a sporting event. It's just a show. That's all I 1545 01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:40,760 Speaker 8: got to say about that as fret as a basketball thing. 1546 01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:44,719 Speaker 8: But most people don't understand, and the players don't understand, 1547 01:16:44,720 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 8: and even the coaches don't understand. Referees or umpires are 1548 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,240 Speaker 8: part of the game, the part of the game in 1549 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:52,680 Speaker 8: the first inning, the part of the game in the 1550 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:55,679 Speaker 8: first quarter, and you have to overcome anything that might 1551 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 8: come at the course of the game. The game should 1552 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 8: be over. It should never gone to court, it should 1553 01:17:01,840 --> 01:17:04,160 Speaker 8: have never been brought up whatever those three refs did. 1554 01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 8: At the end of that game, the game is over. 1555 01:17:07,520 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 8: The people don't understand how fast these games are, even 1556 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:13,760 Speaker 8: high school games, baseball games. And you have to take 1557 01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:17,080 Speaker 8: the results because during the course of the game, it's 1558 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 8: part of the game. They close, game's over. 1559 01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:23,080 Speaker 2: Bill, You're you are not wrong. I think the issue 1560 01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:27,519 Speaker 2: here is what makes it more nuanced is how the 1561 01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 2: basket was good and then it was waved off and 1562 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 2: then upon further review and they can't use video, it 1563 01:17:35,160 --> 01:17:37,560 Speaker 2: was clearly the wrong call. So I think the dynamic 1564 01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 2: and the way it was the end of the game 1565 01:17:39,400 --> 01:17:41,880 Speaker 2: and you know you're heading to the state championship game 1566 01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:45,800 Speaker 2: and it's high school. You're not wrong, your your your 1567 01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:49,640 Speaker 2: views of pragmatic one. That's life. These things happen. But 1568 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 2: what what created the dynamic was the way it went down. 1569 01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:54,080 Speaker 2: You got the last word. 1570 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:58,240 Speaker 8: It's uh, it's part of the game. It's case closed. 1571 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:00,840 Speaker 8: It shouldn't be. It shouldn't Ben, We've going to be 1572 01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:04,720 Speaker 8: brought up because that's just there. The umpires and reps 1573 01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:07,200 Speaker 8: are part of it, and that's just the way it 1574 01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:09,200 Speaker 8: comes out, and you have to live with the result 1575 01:18:09,520 --> 01:18:11,600 Speaker 8: that the referees came up with. 1576 01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 2: Thanks buddy, appreciate it. And that's that's the reality, and 1577 01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 2: that's likely what is about to happen. Frank and Las Vegas. 1578 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 21: You're up, Hey, Bernie, good morning, fullarned Westerner just like yourself. 1579 01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:26,840 Speaker 21: I saw your hometown boy, Alice Cooper at Cobo Hall 1580 01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 21: years ago.

He's going to knock out Tyson. 1584 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 21: Nobody's talking about the betting line though this. 1585 01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 8: Is a betting betting. 1586 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 2: He's a prohibited favorite. 1587 01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:43,280 Speaker 21: Oh, I didn't know that. 1588 01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 2: Okay, that's that was seventy chance to win. Go ahead. 1589 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 21: I didn't know. I was going to ask you what 1590 01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 21: you would make the line, but since it's already out, 1591 01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:51,880 Speaker 21: I was looking for it, but didn't know the thought posted. 1592 01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:54,960 Speaker 21: But age is a huge factor. I don't know why 1593 01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:58,280 Speaker 21: these callers are saying it's not a supporting event. It 1594 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:01,120 Speaker 21: doesn't make sense. I'm happy for both combatants.

He's a youngtown guy, and I 1632 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:54,880 Speaker 21: celebrating with him. We had no idea. All we knew 1633 01:20:54,920 --> 01:20:56,840 Speaker 21: was he went to Sun Ray's hospital, Dooku Kim. 1634 01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:58,719 Speaker 7: That's all we knew. And we just knew he jacked 1635 01:20:58,760 --> 01:20:59,040 Speaker 7: him up. 1636 01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:01,599 Speaker 21: But days later he passed away. 1637 01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 2: He knocked him out of the ring. He was knocked out. 1638 01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:07,320 Speaker 2: They took him to the hospital. He had swelling in 1639 01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:09,880 Speaker 2: the brain. So hang on the line. I gotta tell 1640 01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:12,120 Speaker 2: you this story. So if you were in Vegas back then, 1641 01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 2: you realize across the street it's called the Horseshoe nown 1642 01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:19,839 Speaker 2: it was ballads before that was original MGM. Grand Okay, 1643 01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:25,160 Speaker 2: that's where he stayed, Duke Ku Kim. Three days later 1644 01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:28,800 Speaker 2: he passed away. It was unreal. Now, the fight wasn't 1645 01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:32,599 Speaker 2: in Caesar's palace. They used to construct those old outdoor 1646 01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:35,280 Speaker 2: temporary stadiums with bleachers and went as high as a 1647 01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 2: sky fantastic. You probably find the show on YouTube. Here's 1648 01:21:39,560 --> 01:21:43,320 Speaker 2: where I'm going with this. His story had an amazing, incredible, 1649 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:50,000 Speaker 2: sad epilogue. He was pronounced stead. His mother couldn't believe it. 1650 01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:53,439 Speaker 2: She flew in from Korea to identify the body. Upon 1651 01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:57,320 Speaker 2: seeing the body, several days later, she committed suicide. She 1652 01:21:57,400 --> 01:22:01,040 Speaker 2: drank stick nine. She couldn't deal with it. And Douku 1653 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:05,080 Speaker 2: Kim had scrawled something on the lampshade in the hotel 1654 01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:07,280 Speaker 2: room where he was staying in Corean. They brought in 1655 01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:10,240 Speaker 2: a translator a few days later and it said kill 1656 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,880 Speaker 2: or be killed. That'll go down as one of the 1657 01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 2: most infamous fights of all time. Ray Booboo Mancini a 1658 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:19,720 Speaker 2: great guy, was never the same And what blew me 1659 01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:22,360 Speaker 2: away is when he went home to Ohio, he was 1660 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:26,400 Speaker 2: getting death threats, all kinds of stuff, unreal. It's a sad, 1661 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:29,960 Speaker 2: sad story in the Annals of Boxing, Frank you got 1662 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:30,519 Speaker 2: the last word. 1663 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:32,200 Speaker 16: He was a sweet guy. 1664 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:34,760 Speaker 21: Had the pleasure of meeting him. And I'm telling you 1665 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,200 Speaker 21: and I experienced the best boxing era of all time 1666 01:22:37,800 --> 01:22:39,720 Speaker 21: being here in the early eighties we saw, you know, 1667 01:22:39,760 --> 01:22:42,160 Speaker 21: the back of Caesars Palace, you called it. They were 1668 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:43,360 Speaker 21: the greatest fights. 1669 01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:43,840 Speaker 8: All those guys. 1670 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 21: And I got to go back to the Jake Paul thing. 1671 01:22:47,080 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 21: You know, that thirty plus year age gap that is 1672 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:52,920 Speaker 21: so huge. It's I mean, he's in the prime of 1673 01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:53,599 Speaker 21: his life. 1674 01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:54,519 Speaker 8: I love Mike. 1675 01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:59,200 Speaker 21: Tyson, but I see why Paul's you know, minus three 1676 01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:02,479 Speaker 21: seventy five. I still don't get it that these guys 1677 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:04,800 Speaker 21: that are calling in saying it's not a sporting event. 1678 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:08,000 Speaker 21: What's a sporting event to those guys? These guys are badasses. 1679 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:10,559 Speaker 21: I mean, I don't get it. I'm going to be 1680 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:11,799 Speaker 21: watching as. 1681 01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:13,080 Speaker 8: Is the world. 1682 01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:14,280 Speaker 7: I'm fired up. 1683 01:23:14,320 --> 01:23:16,040 Speaker 8: I wish it was tomorrow, Like you said. 1684 01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:18,200 Speaker 2: Right, all right, Frank, don't be a stranger. We do 1685 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:21,120 Speaker 2: this every Friday night, all right, bringing up the rear. 1686 01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:25,679 Speaker 2: Thanks so much for being patient, Bill and Wyoming. You'll 1687 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:28,600 Speaker 2: finish it up for us another rousing midnight hour. What 1688 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:29,639 Speaker 2: do you got for us, my man? 1689 01:23:30,600 --> 01:23:33,080 Speaker 17: Well, I want to touch on that basketball thing. 1690 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 2: Go ahead. 1691 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:38,360 Speaker 17: I'm a sports aholic and I love sports, and in 1692 01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 17: all of sports. It seems like we're spending a lot 1693 01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 17: of money to get these instant replays and everything and 1694 01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:47,000 Speaker 17: to get it right. And baseball is even thinking about 1695 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:52,040 Speaker 17: going to that computer thing with pitches, and with these 1696 01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:55,080 Speaker 17: young kids in high school, that seems like the only 1697 01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 17: time left before they get in college and become men, 1698 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:01,760 Speaker 17: to really teach him the right things and how to 1699 01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:07,800 Speaker 17: be men. Golf is a gentleman's sport. They police themselves 1700 01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:11,479 Speaker 17: and they report when the ball moves and the different 1701 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:14,880 Speaker 17: things that are there. Obviously, pro golf is on TV 1702 01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:18,559 Speaker 17: so much and they watch everything they do. But I 1703 01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:21,639 Speaker 17: think it's important. I don't agree with the fact that 1704 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:25,320 Speaker 17: they're trying to take it to court, but whatever happens, 1705 01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:29,640 Speaker 17: whatever shakes out, I hope that there's good teaching of 1706 01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 17: these young men to develop good kids that want to 1707 01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 17: continue in sports. 1708 01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:41,280 Speaker 2: All right, good stuff appreciated, Bill. I think we are 1709 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:43,840 Speaker 2: you know, we are living in an imperfect world, and 1710 01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:45,960 Speaker 2: I think in the world that ought to be, that 1711 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:48,240 Speaker 2: would happen in the world it is. I believe both 1712 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:50,639 Speaker 2: these teams will take the court. Camden will just play along. 1713 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:53,720 Speaker 2: I'm not going to judge anybody. We don't know what 1714 01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:56,320 Speaker 2: we would do. You know, there's an old thing, don't 1715 01:24:56,360 --> 01:25:00,120 Speaker 2: judge a mantea walk a mile and his moccasins. I 1716 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 2: will say this, there is historical precedent, and I teased 1717 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 2: this before the top of the hour. Let's go back 1718 01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:12,320 Speaker 2: to nineteen thirty six, the Jesse Owens Olympics. Jesse was 1719 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 2: in the long jump final against a gentleman, a German 1720 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 2: by the name of Louse Long. He was the European 1721 01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:22,840 Speaker 2: long jump champion in nineteen thirty five, and he was 1722 01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:26,599 Speaker 2: a guy. He was leading in the clubhouse and Jesse 1723 01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,680 Speaker 2: Owens was set to do his final long jump. And 1724 01:25:29,720 --> 01:25:32,840 Speaker 2: as you know, you have three jumps. Well, Jesse took 1725 01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:35,160 Speaker 2: a practice jump and he filed, meaning he went over 1726 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,760 Speaker 2: the line before he jumped. Only it turned out it 1727 01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:40,880 Speaker 2: wasn't a practice jump the German jump. The German judge says, 1728 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,439 Speaker 2: that counts, and I think we all know what was 1729 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:47,320 Speaker 2: going on there. Jesse did it a second time and 1730 01:25:47,360 --> 01:25:51,240 Speaker 2: filed a second time. So lose Long, who was already leading, 1731 01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:53,400 Speaker 2: already had the longest jump, could have sat back and 1732 01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 2: done nothing. But he approached Jesse Owens put his arm 1733 01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:01,160 Speaker 2: around him and says, I see where you are starting 1734 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:05,439 Speaker 2: your run. If you back up one foot, you won't 1735 01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 2: file again. That's exactly what Jesse Owens did. So after 1736 01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:14,559 Speaker 2: the first two jumps of the elimination stage, Owens was unmarked, 1737 01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,760 Speaker 2: which means if he files the third time, he's done 1738 01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:19,400 Speaker 2: because the refuge had punished him with two null and 1739 01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:24,840 Speaker 2: void jumps. There is no audio visual testimony, but chronicles 1740 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:29,960 Speaker 2: and historians have said there's no mistake here. Long lose Long, 1741 01:26:30,040 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 2: his competitor, who was already leading, suggested that Owens mark 1742 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:36,240 Speaker 2: a jumping position far enough from the board with his 1743 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 2: training driver so that no one could call a file 1744 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:44,960 Speaker 2: and he wouldn't go over. What happens. Owens complied with 1745 01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:48,760 Speaker 2: the request, and then he proceeded to set a new 1746 01:26:48,760 --> 01:26:52,679 Speaker 2: WORL record and beat louse Long. He embraced louse Long, 1747 01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:56,759 Speaker 2: they ran around the track and hugged and became lifetime friends. 1748 01:26:58,439 --> 01:27:03,400 Speaker 2: Last summer, the silver medal that lose Long won sold 1749 01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:08,879 Speaker 2: for five hundred thousand dollars. He went down in history 1750 01:27:09,240 --> 01:27:13,120 Speaker 2: as one of the great sportsmen of all time in 1751 01:27:13,200 --> 01:27:18,799 Speaker 2: terms of his magnanimous gesture that allowed Jesse Joe Owens 1752 01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:21,360 Speaker 2: to have a third try and as Jesse Owens got 1753 01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:24,360 Speaker 2: the gold medal, So in winning a gold medal, we 1754 01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 2: might not even be talking about lose long but in 1755 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:32,400 Speaker 2: winning a silver medal with his unselfish gesture to Jesse Owens, 1756 01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:35,120 Speaker 2: he actually went down on history, and I don't think 1757 01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:39,280 Speaker 2: that was his goal. There is such a thing as sportsmanship. 1758 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:43,720 Speaker 2: The challenge we have here is these are young men, 1759 01:27:43,880 --> 01:27:48,200 Speaker 2: highly charged a coach, a situation all happened in a flash. 1760 01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:51,080 Speaker 2: There are no right or wrong answers. As many of 1761 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:53,120 Speaker 2: the callers said, it's part of the game. What are 1762 01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:56,280 Speaker 2: you going to do? As other callers have said, how 1763 01:27:56,280 --> 01:27:58,400 Speaker 2: can you teach these young men a lesson? Here's what 1764 01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:01,559 Speaker 2: they're going to have to ask themselves. Camnon takes the 1765 01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:05,360 Speaker 2: court Saturday and they win, people will forever question whether 1766 01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:08,719 Speaker 2: their championship was tainted. If they take the court and lose, 1767 01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:11,439 Speaker 2: they'll still be questioned that they could have they should 1768 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:13,240 Speaker 2: have been there in the first place. Yahda, Yeah, you 1769 01:28:13,400 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 2: get the point. All right, let's go back to the crew. Guys. 1770 01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:19,280 Speaker 2: We haven't had a chance to talk to you. There's 1771 01:28:19,360 --> 01:28:23,799 Speaker 2: been so much of the interest in the Tyson Paul saga, 1772 01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:28,760 Speaker 2: which I'm I'm here for. I loved every minute of it. Kevin, 1773 01:28:28,840 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 2: Let's start with you. You're pragmatic in these situations, I 1774 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 2: told you guys what I would do. I would hold 1775 01:28:33,800 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 2: a meeting with my coaches and the team and we'd 1776 01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 2: take a vote, and if my team says no, too bad, 1777 01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:41,160 Speaker 2: we're playing, I would honor their wishes. Kevin, your thoughts. 1778 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:47,320 Speaker 12: This is about the high school situation in Jersey. Yes, yeah, 1779 01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:50,040 Speaker 12: it's it's a weird situation. To be honest with you. 1780 01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:52,760 Speaker 12: I feel so terrible for the kids who rightfully had 1781 01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:55,160 Speaker 12: to have the game taken away from them after it 1782 01:28:55,240 --> 01:28:58,479 Speaker 12: was ruled after the player was reversed on the court. 1783 01:28:58,560 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 4: I don't know what you do at this point in time. 1784 01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:01,840 Speaker 12: I'm realize there's a rule book in place, and maybe 1785 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:05,240 Speaker 12: it's too overly simplistic on my part, Bernie, but I mean, 1786 01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:07,559 Speaker 12: if there's a clear video evidence of a play that 1787 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:09,960 Speaker 12: happened on the court, I mean it seems pretty cut 1788 01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:11,599 Speaker 12: and dry to me that you'd be able to reverse 1789 01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:14,160 Speaker 12: it and see exactly what happened. You know, the rule 1790 01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:16,639 Speaker 12: book needs to be changed. It's twenty twenty four. Everything 1791 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,439 Speaker 12: is recorded at this point in time. So the idea 1792 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:21,479 Speaker 12: that you can have this game stolen away from them 1793 01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 12: because one referee decided to make a decision and then 1794 01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,599 Speaker 12: upon a replay review, it clearly went the wrong direction. 1795 01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:29,680 Speaker 12: It seems like a pretty simple fix to me, and 1796 01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:31,200 Speaker 12: it's just it's a terrible situation. 1797 01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:35,240 Speaker 2: It's a simple fix. Here's the challenge, and I'll reread 1798 01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:38,559 Speaker 2: the rules from back in the first hour. The New 1799 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:44,160 Speaker 2: Jersey Interscholastic Athletic Association said, quote they understand Man Sikwan's frustration, 1800 01:29:44,280 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 2: but quote the rules are clear. Once the game official 1801 01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 2: leaves the visual confines of the playing court, the game 1802 01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:55,519 Speaker 2: is concluded period. The score is official. The New Jersey 1803 01:29:55,600 --> 01:30:00,960 Speaker 2: Interscholastic Athletic Association does not use instant. They went on 1804 01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:04,960 Speaker 2: to say, quote, the results cannot, could not then and 1805 01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:09,360 Speaker 2: cannot now be changed. It all seems so simple, but 1806 01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:14,000 Speaker 2: it all seems so complicated. The question is morally, morally, 1807 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:15,439 Speaker 2: what do you do, Kevin? What do you think is 1808 01:30:15,439 --> 01:30:18,200 Speaker 2: gonna happen? You think coolier heads might prevail. I think 1809 01:30:18,200 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 2: Camdon's gonna play the game. I don't think they're backing 1810 01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:20,840 Speaker 2: down at this point. 1811 01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:23,280 Speaker 12: No, They're they're gonna play the game because, look, it's 1812 01:30:23,320 --> 01:30:25,759 Speaker 12: as unfair as it seems. And you brought up examples 1813 01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:27,680 Speaker 12: earlier in the show, the Rams Saints game from the 1814 01:30:27,760 --> 01:30:31,559 Speaker 12: NFC Championship. You know, unfortunately these things happen, and if 1815 01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:33,719 Speaker 12: it's on a technicality or based on the rule book, 1816 01:30:33,800 --> 01:30:36,920 Speaker 12: that's unfortunately how the rule was drawn up. I can 1817 01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:38,519 Speaker 12: go back to the tuck rule back in the day. 1818 01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:40,080 Speaker 12: You can say it was a bad rule, but the 1819 01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:42,040 Speaker 12: rule was applied the way that it was supposed to be. 1820 01:30:42,439 --> 01:30:45,040 Speaker 12: So now what this hopefully does is they find a 1821 01:30:45,040 --> 01:30:47,240 Speaker 12: way to amend this rule moving forward and try to 1822 01:30:47,240 --> 01:30:49,360 Speaker 12: find a way to use some replay or just have 1823 01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 12: some common sense involved and not necessarily stick to the 1824 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:55,480 Speaker 12: rule book in a situation whether it's clearly an obviously 1825 01:30:55,760 --> 01:30:56,920 Speaker 12: an obvious missed call. 1826 01:30:57,120 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 4: But I think ultimately they're gonna end up playing the game. 1827 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:02,599 Speaker 12: You're not going to penalize the kids who are you know, 1828 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,240 Speaker 12: played this entire season for the opportunity to play for 1829 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:08,000 Speaker 12: a championship, whether or not there should be there or not. 1830 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:10,400 Speaker 12: You know, the game still needs to be played because 1831 01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:12,599 Speaker 12: based on the rules as they are currently in place, 1832 01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 12: I guess things went the way they were supposed to. 1833 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,760 Speaker 2: Fair enough, Good stuff, Kevin Ian Roddy your thoughts on 1834 01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:21,479 Speaker 2: the New Jersey basketball situation. 1835 01:31:21,880 --> 01:31:23,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a tough one. 1836 01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:27,799 Speaker 13: I mean, but I think right or wrong, the refs 1837 01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 13: are part of the game and the outcome of the games. 1838 01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 13: So they were wrong, they should be held accountable for that, 1839 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:39,479 Speaker 13: but you can't overturn the outcome that they deemed the outcome, 1840 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:40,360 Speaker 13: if that makes sense. 1841 01:31:41,439 --> 01:31:42,320 Speaker 4: And it sucks. 1842 01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:44,960 Speaker 13: It sucks for the kids who technically, you know, like 1843 01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:49,200 Speaker 13: by rule, scored more points within the allotted time limit. 1844 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:53,280 Speaker 13: But but the refs, what they say goes and I 1845 01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:55,880 Speaker 13: think the second you start messing with that, it opens 1846 01:31:55,920 --> 01:31:58,720 Speaker 13: a whole can of worms. And this is a very 1847 01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 13: specific situation that I don't think. Look, it's kind of 1848 01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:04,200 Speaker 13: a freak accident. I don't think. I don't think this 1849 01:32:04,280 --> 01:32:06,920 Speaker 13: is something that that can happen. 1850 01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 4: Over and over again. 1851 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:09,559 Speaker 13: But I do think it's kind of a microcosm for 1852 01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:12,880 Speaker 13: what's happening in sports, Like all over the NFL, NBA 1853 01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 13: you see outcomes of games that are being swayed by 1854 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:18,439 Speaker 13: the refs, which, like I said, the refs are a 1855 01:32:18,439 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 13: part of it. So maybe there's an issue that needs 1856 01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:25,679 Speaker 13: to be you know, solved there, But to me, it's 1857 01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:27,040 Speaker 13: it's I think. 1858 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:29,840 Speaker 2: We're past the rules and the adjudication part of it. 1859 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:34,080 Speaker 2: It's not a moral conversation, because when that team takes 1860 01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:38,360 Speaker 2: the floor Saturday, people are going to know that technically, 1861 01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:44,679 Speaker 2: technically they won the game, but in theory, everybody saw 1862 01:32:44,680 --> 01:32:46,759 Speaker 2: what happened, and that's going to be You'll be wondering 1863 01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:49,400 Speaker 2: if they're the subject of cat calls and hooting and hollering, 1864 01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:52,720 Speaker 2: and will they be able to concentrate or psychologically will 1865 01:32:52,720 --> 01:32:54,479 Speaker 2: they know deep down or can they block it out 1866 01:32:54,760 --> 01:32:57,000 Speaker 2: they lose the game. I guess it's moot, but look, 1867 01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:00,240 Speaker 2: there's no easy solution. Mark Ramsey, you got the last 1868 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:01,479 Speaker 2: word on this. What are your thoughts? 1869 01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:01,840 Speaker 17: Oh? 1870 01:33:01,920 --> 01:33:07,000 Speaker 22: My, the last word? Anyway, I guess understanding what you 1871 01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:11,080 Speaker 22: guys have been talking about. So this a team lost 1872 01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 22: even though they scored the final point, and then you. 1873 01:33:14,840 --> 01:33:17,320 Speaker 2: Scored the final bucket. The referee said it was good, 1874 01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:20,439 Speaker 2: and then they regrouped on the floor and waved it 1875 01:33:20,479 --> 01:33:24,440 Speaker 2: off and said never mind, the bucket didn't count. Then 1876 01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:28,840 Speaker 2: video clearly showed that the shot went off and the 1877 01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:32,880 Speaker 2: bucket was scored before the final buzzer sounded. So it's 1878 01:33:32,920 --> 01:33:35,000 Speaker 2: a complete fagazy all the way around. 1879 01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:40,599 Speaker 22: So the so called team is still gonna play the 1880 01:33:40,640 --> 01:33:41,880 Speaker 22: next game or how does that? 1881 01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:46,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, So Camden, the beneficiary of this call, advances to 1882 01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:50,479 Speaker 2: the state final game, which is later on tonight in 1883 01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 2: New Jersey, and from what by all accounts, it looks 1884 01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:55,639 Speaker 2: like they're gonna play it. They're not gonna bow out 1885 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:57,679 Speaker 2: and say we didn't earn it. We're gonna step aside. 1886 01:33:58,040 --> 01:34:01,000 Speaker 2: They're gonna play. And so we have a situation here. 1887 01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,719 Speaker 2: I mean, the players didn't do anything wrong, the coaches 1888 01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:06,120 Speaker 2: didn't do anything wrong. They're the beneficiary of a bad call. 1889 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,080 Speaker 2: But you know, for lack of a better term, it 1890 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:11,320 Speaker 2: almost feels like you'll gotten games. You get my drift. 1891 01:34:11,680 --> 01:34:12,920 Speaker 4: Okay, So. 1892 01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:18,000 Speaker 22: All of us that love sports know there are bad calls, 1893 01:34:18,479 --> 01:34:20,680 Speaker 22: and I think we already brought up a couple examples 1894 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:24,840 Speaker 22: of those things. So it's just gonna be a hard 1895 01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:29,559 Speaker 22: lesson for the team who won but didn't win and 1896 01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:33,080 Speaker 22: for the team that benefits from a bad call from 1897 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:37,719 Speaker 22: the referees. So hopefully, like you've been saying, I hope 1898 01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:44,639 Speaker 22: that these teams that are going to move on can 1899 01:34:44,840 --> 01:34:48,840 Speaker 22: handle the pressure of what they're playing under, because this 1900 01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:53,760 Speaker 22: is gonna make them either falter or hopefully they can 1901 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:57,400 Speaker 22: get through it because they already have to win the game. 1902 01:34:57,520 --> 01:35:01,040 Speaker 22: So that's pressure. Now they got to win despite the circumstances. 1903 01:35:01,080 --> 01:35:06,160 Speaker 22: So hopefully their coaches and their friends and hopefully their 1904 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:09,960 Speaker 22: parents can talk with them that this is a great, 1905 01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:12,320 Speaker 22: big mess that you're gonna have to you're gonna have 1906 01:35:12,360 --> 01:35:14,320 Speaker 22: to fight through it, and you're going to have to 1907 01:35:14,360 --> 01:35:17,200 Speaker 22: win this next game and do your best based on 1908 01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:18,280 Speaker 22: everything that's happened. 1909 01:35:19,439 --> 01:35:22,800 Speaker 2: I think that's fair. And uh, the other thing too, 1910 01:35:22,920 --> 01:35:25,519 Speaker 2: is is that there is an added amount of pressure 1911 01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:29,120 Speaker 2: in terms of knowing deep down that there's a cloud 1912 01:35:29,160 --> 01:35:31,880 Speaker 2: over this, even though there's no fault of theirs. Do 1913 01:35:31,920 --> 01:35:35,479 Speaker 2: you have any thoughts on Tyson and Jake Paul? 1914 01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:40,080 Speaker 22: I think with so when I understand about Jake Paul, 1915 01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:42,280 Speaker 22: he seems like he's a I guess he was an 1916 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:45,799 Speaker 22: am M A fighter who wants to be a boxer. 1917 01:35:45,840 --> 01:35:48,439 Speaker 2: Now, No, Jake, Jake Paul was just a YouTube sensation 1918 01:35:48,520 --> 01:35:51,560 Speaker 2: who took up boxing, who started fighting non boxers, and 1919 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:54,280 Speaker 2: then he started fighting MMA fighters, and now he's going 1920 01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:57,200 Speaker 2: to fight the former heavyweight champion in the world. Because 1921 01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:01,240 Speaker 2: there is so much attention that there's just a situation 1922 01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:03,679 Speaker 2: where people really are curious about what's gonna happen. 1923 01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:11,280 Speaker 22: So He's found a niche within boxing to make money, 1924 01:36:11,760 --> 01:36:15,000 Speaker 22: good job, and now he's gonna have to continue to 1925 01:36:15,080 --> 01:36:19,320 Speaker 22: prove it, and he's gonna make plans to fight one 1926 01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:21,519 Speaker 22: of the boxers that could knock you out in one punch. 1927 01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:27,880 Speaker 22: So with that in mind, he may have being young 1928 01:36:27,960 --> 01:36:32,320 Speaker 22: on his side, but experience, you know, will last forever. 1929 01:36:33,040 --> 01:36:37,080 Speaker 22: Mike knows what to do when you're getting close. He's 1930 01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:42,120 Speaker 22: handled most people other than Buster Douglas, so Mike has 1931 01:36:42,240 --> 01:36:45,600 Speaker 22: experience on his mind. He is the boxer with this 1932 01:36:45,720 --> 01:36:49,639 Speaker 22: other guy is almost playing the character of a boxer. 1933 01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:50,759 Speaker 4: So we'll see what happens. 1934 01:36:50,880 --> 01:36:54,479 Speaker 22: I'm I would say Mike Tyson has the upper hand 1935 01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:59,519 Speaker 22: because he knows what to do despite what this person 1936 01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:00,280 Speaker 22: is trying to be. 1937 01:37:01,560 --> 01:37:06,120 Speaker 2: All right, Mark, good stuff. Outstanding topics tonight with respect 1938 01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:11,559 Speaker 2: to the genuine fan interest that they have drawn and 1939 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:15,479 Speaker 2: the callers. Outstanding is always obviously the midnight hour will 1940 01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:20,960 Speaker 2: continue every Friday night midnight Pacific. Appreciate the fact that 1941 01:37:21,120 --> 01:37:23,160 Speaker 2: all the people took the time to call the patients, 1942 01:37:23,160 --> 01:37:25,720 Speaker 2: to wait on hold and to give genuine opinions. Not 1943 01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:28,400 Speaker 2: everybody agreed. There were lots of varying opinions and That's 1944 01:37:28,400 --> 01:37:31,439 Speaker 2: what I want to see, because, as I've said, you're 1945 01:37:31,439 --> 01:37:35,679 Speaker 2: probably tired of hearing me say it. The most boring conversations, well, 1946 01:37:35,720 --> 01:37:40,920 Speaker 2: those are the ones where everybody agrees coming up. Okay, 1947 01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:46,720 Speaker 2: So I'll be at Big League Weekend here Saturday at 1948 01:37:46,760 --> 01:37:50,280 Speaker 2: the Las Vegas Triple A Ballpark, the Milwaukee Brewers against 1949 01:37:50,320 --> 01:37:54,559 Speaker 2: the Oakland A's and now for a second time, there 1950 01:37:54,600 --> 01:37:58,320 Speaker 2: is a brand new Oakland A's stadium rendering, which you 1951 01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:02,000 Speaker 2: can see online. But I gotta tell you, I got 1952 01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:06,160 Speaker 2: some questions. I think it's missing. It's missing some things 1953 01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:10,400 Speaker 2: that are glaring to me, which I will point out. Yeah, 1954 01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:13,040 Speaker 2: it kind of bugs me a little bit. Well, well, 1955 01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,880 Speaker 2: I don't think I'm nitpicking. You can be the judge 1956 01:38:15,880 --> 01:38:20,200 Speaker 2: of that.

Keep it locked Radio. 1966 01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:48,920 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bernie Fraddle Show on Fox Sports Radio. 1967 01:38:49,760 --> 01:38:53,479 Speaker 2: All right, back on the Bernie Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio, 1968 01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:56,280 Speaker 2: coming to you live from the Tarreck dot Com studios 1969 01:38:56,280 --> 01:39:01,560 Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas. Nine months ago was announced the 1970 01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:04,320 Speaker 2: Oaklan names have been moving to Las Vegas. Now I'm 1971 01:39:04,320 --> 01:39:07,639 Speaker 2: not gonna play a game here. It'll twenty twenty eight, 1972 01:39:07,680 --> 01:39:10,920 Speaker 2: thank god, because there's nowhere near. I mean, we're still 1973 01:39:10,920 --> 01:39:16,519 Speaker 2: looking for what I consider to be legitimate stadium rendering. 1974 01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:19,320 Speaker 2: Now maybe this last one is I don't want to 1975 01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:24,719 Speaker 2: be that guy. But if you saw the most recent 1976 01:39:26,360 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 2: stadium rendering, the newly released as stadium rendering for the 1977 01:39:31,880 --> 01:39:35,800 Speaker 2: a's plan NEU Stadium in Vegas, and the idea was 1978 01:39:35,840 --> 01:39:40,160 Speaker 2: to quality doubts around the relocation. And you know, although 1979 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:42,680 Speaker 2: it's been criticized in align, it's still on track. But 1980 01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:46,040 Speaker 2: mission not accomplished. Here's the problem. This is supposed to 1981 01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:49,320 Speaker 2: be a one and a half billion dollar facility and 1982 01:39:49,760 --> 01:39:52,519 Speaker 2: this was highly anticipated because a lot of time has 1983 01:39:52,560 --> 01:39:56,599 Speaker 2: passed since the state legislature voted, you know, and they're 1984 01:39:56,640 --> 01:40:01,400 Speaker 2: getting public money and all kinds of stuff, and uh, 1985 01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:10,040 Speaker 2: you have these these renderings that all they have done, 1986 01:40:10,120 --> 01:40:12,280 Speaker 2: at least for me, is managed to raise a few 1987 01:40:12,320 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 2: more questions because let me ask let me ask you this. 1988 01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:19,880 Speaker 2: If you looked at the at the drawings, you can 1989 01:40:19,960 --> 01:40:23,920 Speaker 2: see them online. They're just Google Oakland A's Las Vegas 1990 01:40:23,960 --> 01:40:28,479 Speaker 2: as stadium rendering, you know, with the date two days ago. 1991 01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:31,960 Speaker 2: Did you notice that there are, for instance, the are 1992 01:40:31,960 --> 01:40:35,000 Speaker 2: no bullpens. Do you see any bullpens there? Do you 1993 01:40:35,080 --> 01:40:38,400 Speaker 2: see any infrastructure for air conditioning? Do you see any 1994 01:40:38,520 --> 01:40:41,679 Speaker 2: luxury suites? I'm told that they're going to have luxury boxes. 1995 01:40:41,960 --> 01:40:45,320 Speaker 2: Do you see them there? Do you see lighting? Any 1996 01:40:45,439 --> 01:40:49,280 Speaker 2: stadium lighting? There's only one umpire on the field. I mean, okay, 1997 01:40:49,280 --> 01:40:52,400 Speaker 2: there's there's a lot of things I could nitpick for. 1998 01:40:52,920 --> 01:40:57,040 Speaker 2: This is not the first time, though, that the Oakland 1999 01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,240 Speaker 2: A's or the A's, the Las Vegas A's, whatever you 2000 01:40:59,240 --> 01:41:02,280 Speaker 2: want to call them, have released a stadium rendering which 2001 01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:10,000 Speaker 2: raises questions. It's just odd. It's such an ambitious project 2002 01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:14,759 Speaker 2: and such an ambitious, you know, situation, moving from Oakland 2003 01:41:14,800 --> 01:41:18,559 Speaker 2: to Las Vegas and they're gonna build a stadium for 2004 01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:21,360 Speaker 2: at the cost of a billion and a half that 2005 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:26,599 Speaker 2: it seems like this book continues to miss a chapter. 2006 01:41:27,120 --> 01:41:29,000 Speaker 2: But I still think they're coming. I think they're coming, 2007 01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:32,840 Speaker 2: not a doubt in my mind, nine percent, probably one 2008 01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:35,960 Speaker 2: hundred percent. But you know what, we're gonna talk about 2009 01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:38,960 Speaker 2: this more Saturday Night. I'll be it.

But it 2049 01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:31,880 Speaker 2: doesn't matter, and season not a season on the fielder 2050 01:43:31,920 --> 01:43:35,639 Speaker 2: off the field.

It's all here in this report from 2054 01:43:56,960 --> 01:44:00,000 Speaker 1: the World of Soccer, Bernie. We're into another weekend here 2055 01:44:00,320 --> 01:44:01,479 Speaker 1: of soccer. 2056 01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:06,000 Speaker 23: MLS is starting up, another weekend, more Lionel Messi in action, 2057 01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:08,400 Speaker 23: and of course the bigger question there is when will 2058 01:44:08,400 --> 01:44:13,240 Speaker 23: they ever resolve their ongoing referee lockout, because there seems 2059 01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:16,320 Speaker 23: to be more and more funny stories coming from just 2060 01:44:16,439 --> 01:44:19,839 Speaker 23: how badly the replacement referees are blowing it. It almost feels 2061 01:44:19,920 --> 01:44:23,639 Speaker 23: like that NFL referee lockout from about over ten years 2062 01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:26,080 Speaker 23: ago on how badly some of these has been blown. 2063 01:44:26,120 --> 01:44:27,839 Speaker 4: We'll get to the Champions League in the second. 2064 01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:32,160 Speaker 23: But in week one we had La Galaxy midfielder Mark 2065 01:44:32,200 --> 01:44:36,840 Speaker 23: del Gato got a phantom foul on Sergio Busquets that 2066 01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:40,559 Speaker 23: set up for an equalizer from Messi. This last weekend, 2067 01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:43,400 Speaker 23: there was a blown call on a throw in deep 2068 01:44:43,439 --> 01:44:47,160 Speaker 23: and stoppage time between Sporting Kansas City and the Philadelphia Union. 2069 01:44:47,720 --> 01:44:50,920 Speaker 23: But then probably the most insane one came from this 2070 01:44:51,080 --> 01:44:55,479 Speaker 23: game prior to Inter Miami Orlando City, where pictures on 2071 01:44:55,520 --> 01:45:01,120 Speaker 23: social media showed a scheduled center referee geher Seretta was 2072 01:45:01,160 --> 01:45:05,639 Speaker 23: wearing an Inter Miami jersey like that's it's a it's 2073 01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:08,000 Speaker 23: a conflict of interest to have that there. 2074 01:45:08,200 --> 01:45:10,599 Speaker 4: He's quickly pulled. He was quickly pulled from the assignment. 2075 01:45:10,640 --> 01:45:14,680 Speaker 23: But it's very clear that MLS and pro have not 2076 01:45:15,520 --> 01:45:18,320 Speaker 23: vetted these replacement referees very well, and it's becoming a 2077 01:45:18,320 --> 01:45:21,439 Speaker 23: big story. Maybe not for the casual sports audience who 2078 01:45:21,479 --> 01:45:24,280 Speaker 23: just cares about Messi, but for most people in soccer 2079 01:45:24,400 --> 01:45:27,880 Speaker 23: in MLS, the job the replacement officials has been doing 2080 01:45:27,920 --> 01:45:31,360 Speaker 23: has been very, very poor, and you just wonder how 2081 01:45:31,479 --> 01:45:35,240 Speaker 23: much longer this lockout will remain as MLS refuses to 2082 01:45:35,280 --> 01:45:38,120 Speaker 23: meet on some of these issues. But the big story 2083 01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:41,519 Speaker 23: of this week, Bernie has been in the Champions League. Yes, 2084 01:45:41,960 --> 01:45:46,439 Speaker 23: the greatest, most competitive, top branch of club soccer in 2085 01:45:46,479 --> 01:45:48,800 Speaker 23: the world. We all love the World Cup, but you 2086 01:45:48,880 --> 01:45:50,960 Speaker 23: want to see the best of the best play in 2087 01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:53,439 Speaker 23: together in the best of the best clubs. You find 2088 01:45:53,439 --> 01:45:58,640 Speaker 23: it in the Champions It is one of my favorite competitions. 2089 01:45:58,960 --> 01:46:01,200 Speaker 4: It's always in the middle of the week. We're still 2090 01:46:01,200 --> 01:46:01,599 Speaker 4: not done. 2091 01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:05,919 Speaker 23: We're still waiting to see who among Arsenal, Porto, Barcelona, Napoli, 2092 01:46:07,000 --> 01:46:11,519 Speaker 23: at Letti, Coo Madrid, Inter Borissia, dortmun and Eindovin will 2093 01:46:11,560 --> 01:46:14,479 Speaker 23: be able to move on to the quarterfinals. We've got 2094 01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:17,519 Speaker 23: half of the other quarterfinals set and it's the four 2095 01:46:17,560 --> 01:46:21,280 Speaker 23: of the biggest clubs that you could ask for. Moving ahead. 2096 01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:25,519 Speaker 23: Bayern Munich closing out Latzio three to nil, moving on 2097 01:46:25,600 --> 01:46:28,519 Speaker 23: three to one on aggregate after Lotzio took a one 2098 01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:31,000 Speaker 23: goal lead on the leg on the first leg. Here 2099 01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:35,120 Speaker 23: two goals by Harry Kane, the Fordney former Tottenham Hotspur 2100 01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:39,599 Speaker 23: captain now quite happy with his club in Germany, as 2101 01:46:40,080 --> 01:46:43,040 Speaker 23: that purchase that Bayern Munich made seems to continue to 2102 01:46:43,120 --> 01:46:46,320 Speaker 23: propel them further and further, even though maybe that their 2103 01:46:46,360 --> 01:46:50,000 Speaker 23: Bundesliga play hasn't exactly been the same up to snuff, 2104 01:46:50,040 --> 01:46:53,880 Speaker 23: as they sit ten points behind Leverkosen in Germany. But 2105 01:46:54,280 --> 01:46:57,240 Speaker 23: it's always been about the champions for Bayern Munich, and 2106 01:46:57,360 --> 01:46:59,640 Speaker 23: it looks like they're closing in to keep moving on 2107 01:47:00,160 --> 01:47:02,640 Speaker 23: Paris Saint Germain. We've talked at length of how this 2108 01:47:02,760 --> 01:47:07,080 Speaker 23: is Killian Embope's last gasp with PSG with the Parisian Giants, 2109 01:47:07,240 --> 01:47:10,080 Speaker 23: and all that the Parisian club has wanted has been 2110 01:47:10,160 --> 01:47:13,479 Speaker 23: challenging for as they are mostly unthreatened in French play 2111 01:47:13,880 --> 01:47:17,280 Speaker 23: is a Champions League title. Well, they move on four 2112 01:47:17,320 --> 01:47:20,320 Speaker 23: to one on aggregate, defeating two to one Real Socia 2113 01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:24,479 Speaker 23: Dodd with two goals from you guessed it, the big 2114 01:47:24,520 --> 01:47:27,920 Speaker 23: man himself, Killian Embappe coming in the fifteenth and fifty 2115 01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:31,799 Speaker 23: six minute. They if PSG can close on the final 2116 01:47:31,880 --> 01:47:35,799 Speaker 23: season with killing Embape to get a Champions League crown, 2117 01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:39,000 Speaker 23: I'm sure both parties will be able to go home happy. 2118 01:47:39,400 --> 01:47:42,280 Speaker 23: Might even maybe see about getting killing Embape back if 2119 01:47:42,280 --> 01:47:44,640 Speaker 23: he does that. But I also feel like he is 2120 01:47:45,080 --> 01:47:47,479 Speaker 23: more than dead set on heading to Real Madrid, so 2121 01:47:47,479 --> 01:47:49,799 Speaker 23: getting one out the door would be great for PSG 2122 01:47:49,880 --> 01:47:52,960 Speaker 23: and it would further cement Imbape's title as the next 2123 01:47:53,160 --> 01:47:57,840 Speaker 23: great of European soccer of the world. In soccer, English 2124 01:47:57,920 --> 01:48:01,439 Speaker 23: giants Manchester City moves on six two on aggregate. Not 2125 01:48:01,520 --> 01:48:04,200 Speaker 23: really much to talk about here except for another cracker 2126 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:06,320 Speaker 23: goal right after the half by Earling Holland. 2127 01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:07,320 Speaker 4: You see how I'm talking about. 2128 01:48:07,400 --> 01:48:11,200 Speaker 23: We're getting all these greats we've mentioned Kine Holland, Killian 2129 01:48:11,280 --> 01:48:14,759 Speaker 23: and Boppe Alvarez scored a goal here. Is Julian Alvarez 2130 01:48:14,760 --> 01:48:16,640 Speaker 23: scored a goal here as well. Not as much of 2131 01:48:16,680 --> 01:48:19,040 Speaker 23: a name there, but still a very big name if 2132 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:21,799 Speaker 23: you are in the world of soccer. So we're already 2133 01:48:21,800 --> 01:48:24,320 Speaker 23: heading to a ton of stars here, and then we 2134 01:48:24,360 --> 01:48:28,080 Speaker 23: can't leave out Real Madrid came into the game with 2135 01:48:28,120 --> 01:48:31,799 Speaker 23: a one goal on the first leg, tied one to one, 2136 01:48:32,080 --> 01:48:34,080 Speaker 23: but they still advanced to to one on the aggregate, 2137 01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:37,639 Speaker 23: and it's Venisius Junior with the goal in the sixty 2138 01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:41,960 Speaker 23: fifth minute, holding off RB Laipsig. The only real other 2139 01:48:42,040 --> 01:48:44,760 Speaker 23: club that these guys have faced to really give them 2140 01:48:44,840 --> 01:48:47,759 Speaker 23: trouble here. So no matter what happens with the next 2141 01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:50,200 Speaker 23: four matches we're going to see here coming up this 2142 01:48:50,240 --> 01:48:53,360 Speaker 23: week on the twelfth and the thirteenth. Rest assured, we've 2143 01:48:53,439 --> 01:48:55,720 Speaker 23: got a lot of fireworks prepared for us in the 2144 01:48:55,800 --> 01:48:58,880 Speaker 23: quarterfinals the Champions I would like to see Arsenal move ahead. 2145 01:48:59,200 --> 01:49:01,720 Speaker 23: I think Porto is leading them right now one goal 2146 01:49:01,800 --> 01:49:04,639 Speaker 23: on aggregate going into Tuesday, They've got their work cut 2147 01:49:04,640 --> 01:49:07,800 Speaker 23: out for them. Barcelona Napoli tied on aggregate. Either of 2148 01:49:07,840 --> 01:49:10,920 Speaker 23: these clubs would be amazing. Napoly still holding onto the 2149 01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:13,840 Speaker 23: glory even as their club takes a major step back 2150 01:49:14,120 --> 01:49:18,760 Speaker 23: in Italian play this year. Atletico at Inter, hey man, 2151 01:49:18,800 --> 01:49:21,840 Speaker 23: anyone's game. I'm always a big fan of watching Inter 2152 01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:26,440 Speaker 23: playing at the top level. I believe their stadium, Sansio 2153 01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:29,559 Speaker 23: is one of the great cathedrals to the sport. And 2154 01:49:29,640 --> 01:49:32,400 Speaker 23: take your pick of Barusia, dortmun or Einhoven. Personally, I 2155 01:49:32,479 --> 01:49:34,280 Speaker 23: kind of root a little bit towards Iinovin. They've been 2156 01:49:34,320 --> 01:49:40,040 Speaker 23: a fantastic, fantastic play in the Dutch top flight right now, 2157 01:49:40,200 --> 01:49:43,080 Speaker 23: probably a very fun sleeper and I really have a 2158 01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:46,559 Speaker 23: chance to upset Narusia Dortmund here and because they were 2159 01:49:46,600 --> 01:49:49,519 Speaker 23: tied in the first leg, winner take all in more 2160 01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:52,160 Speaker 23: European play in UEFA. I always also like to pay 2161 01:49:52,200 --> 01:49:56,160 Speaker 23: attention to the Europa League, the second flight competition down 2162 01:49:56,560 --> 01:49:59,920 Speaker 23: where a club that I've always loved and watched as Roma, 2163 01:50:00,360 --> 01:50:04,200 Speaker 23: is already coming out of the first leg screaming wild. 2164 01:50:04,640 --> 01:50:08,679 Speaker 23: They took on Brighton and Hove Albion in Rome four 2165 01:50:08,960 --> 01:50:12,280 Speaker 23: nil on the first leg, with goals by de Bala, Lucaco, 2166 01:50:12,400 --> 01:50:16,280 Speaker 23: Mancini and Christante. It's been a fun story for Roma 2167 01:50:16,640 --> 01:50:20,800 Speaker 23: ever since they dismissed Jose Mourinho the Great One and 2168 01:50:20,920 --> 01:50:24,320 Speaker 23: brought in their former player Daniel de Rossi as manager. 2169 01:50:24,360 --> 01:50:27,280 Speaker 23: It has been a fantastic turnaround for Roma, who was 2170 01:50:27,400 --> 01:50:30,559 Speaker 23: listless in Italian play now is fighting for a top 2171 01:50:30,600 --> 01:50:34,360 Speaker 23: four spot and showed thorough domination as it tries to 2172 01:50:34,400 --> 01:50:38,200 Speaker 23: move up the ladder here towards the next stages of 2173 01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:40,680 Speaker 23: Europa because if you win the Europa League you get 2174 01:50:40,680 --> 01:50:42,639 Speaker 23: a Champions League spot next year. But they can still 2175 01:50:42,640 --> 01:50:45,879 Speaker 23: do that. They finished top four in Italy too. Meanwhile, 2176 01:50:45,920 --> 01:50:51,120 Speaker 23: Liverpool another domination of Sparta Prague five to one. And 2177 01:50:51,760 --> 01:50:55,280 Speaker 23: again we've talked a lot about Jurgen Klop this past 2178 01:50:55,360 --> 01:50:58,000 Speaker 23: year that this is his final year with Liverpool. Now, 2179 01:50:58,320 --> 01:51:00,840 Speaker 23: Liverpool going out with the Europa League title might not 2180 01:51:01,040 --> 01:51:04,480 Speaker 23: sound like the glory, especially the past glory that Liverpool 2181 01:51:04,520 --> 01:51:07,760 Speaker 23: has had, it would still be a very nice goal 2182 01:51:07,840 --> 01:51:11,120 Speaker 23: to go out on, especially since Liverpool is also gunning 2183 01:51:11,120 --> 01:51:13,880 Speaker 23: for a Premier League title, and in fact they'll be 2184 01:51:14,040 --> 01:51:18,599 Speaker 23: on the line here on Sunday in Premier League play 2185 01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:22,120 Speaker 23: taking on Manchester City. Should be a really fun match. 2186 01:51:22,360 --> 01:51:24,439 Speaker 23: There's so much coming up here, Bernie, so much to 2187 01:51:24,479 --> 01:51:26,559 Speaker 23: get to, and we'll see you next time on the 2188 01:51:26,600 --> 01:51:27,360 Speaker 23: World of Soccer. 2189 01:51:28,479 --> 01:51:31,280 Speaker 2: Well, there you have it, and there is so much 2190 01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:33,320 Speaker 2: to get to and that's what we bring it to 2191 01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:36,400 Speaker 2: you every week at this time. Chris Purfet's World of 2192 01:51:36,439 --> 01:51:40,559 Speaker 2: Soccer coming up, we wrap up the show, talk about 2193 01:51:40,640 --> 01:51:44,599 Speaker 2: Saturday show, the Daylight Savings Time Show. And oh, by 2194 01:51:44,640 --> 01:51:48,439 Speaker 2: the way, did you notice these days, especially in the 2195 01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:51,559 Speaker 2: big games, man, it seems like it cost an arm 2196 01:51:51,600 --> 01:51:54,639 Speaker 2: and a leg to attend the game. Well wait a minute, 2197 01:51:55,280 --> 01:52:00,920 Speaker 2: I didn't mean literally, or did I I'll explain. Coming up. 2198 01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:03,200 Speaker 2: I'm Bernie Fraddlewick coming to the line from Las Vegas, 2199 01:52:03,240 --> 01:52:06,679 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, tire Act dot Com Studios. Don't go away. 2200 01:52:06,720 --> 01:52:08,960 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bernie Fraddle Show on Fox Sports. Rate. 2201 01:52:09,760 --> 01:52:12,719 Speaker 2: All right, we are wrapping it up on the Bernie 2202 01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:16,400 Speaker 2: Fraddle Show, coming to you live from the tire Act 2203 01:52:16,439 --> 01:52:20,559 Speaker 2: dot Com studios here in Las Vegas. Before I go 2204 01:52:20,600 --> 01:52:24,599 Speaker 2: any further, I want to thank my broadcast team back 2205 01:52:24,600 --> 01:52:27,880 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles. They've been with me since eleven pm 2206 01:52:28,240 --> 01:52:33,600 Speaker 2: Pacific time on Friday night. Kevin Figures on all the updates, 2207 01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:38,719 Speaker 2: Mark Ramsey, our technical producer, and of course Ian Roddy, 2208 01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:43,479 Speaker 2: our executive producer. Guys doing a great job turning all 2209 01:52:43,520 --> 01:52:45,840 Speaker 2: the dials, keeping us food together. Ian taking all the 2210 01:52:45,840 --> 01:52:47,719 Speaker 2: phone calls. We got a ton of phone calls tonight 2211 01:52:47,800 --> 01:52:51,719 Speaker 2: in the midnight hour, a couple of very interesting topics 2212 01:52:51,760 --> 01:52:56,800 Speaker 2: of course, Jake Paul and Mike Tyson. And then the 2213 01:52:56,840 --> 01:53:02,879 Speaker 2: controversial New Jersey basket Ball Championship High School Basketball Championship 2214 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:06,320 Speaker 2: game slated to take place later on tonight. Pires Campton 2215 01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:08,479 Speaker 2: is going ahead with the game. It's a bit of 2216 01:53:08,520 --> 01:53:12,360 Speaker 2: a moral dilemma. There is no easy solution here. There 2217 01:53:12,400 --> 01:53:16,360 Speaker 2: is no solution. We've broke it down six ways from Tuesday. 2218 01:53:16,439 --> 01:53:21,200 Speaker 2: There's really no other way to say it. And I 2219 01:53:21,240 --> 01:53:23,120 Speaker 2: want to thank all the callers for calling in We 2220 01:53:23,120 --> 01:53:25,320 Speaker 2: were jam packed for a full hour, even spilled over 2221 01:53:25,880 --> 01:53:31,519 Speaker 2: a lot of thoughtful calls, diverse or opinions of calls. 2222 01:53:31,520 --> 01:53:35,080 Speaker 2: And you hear me say every week. Look, the most 2223 01:53:35,240 --> 01:53:39,320 Speaker 2: boring conversations are the ones where everybody agrees. So we 2224 01:53:39,400 --> 01:53:43,160 Speaker 2: had people thinking Jake Paul will knock out Mike Tyson. 2225 01:53:43,200 --> 01:53:45,639 Speaker 2: We have people thinking Tyson will knock out Jake Paul. 2226 01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:49,920 Speaker 2: Everybody's down for this fight. Though again I've said it 2227 01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:54,760 Speaker 2: many times. We are a society that has been infatuated 2228 01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:58,200 Speaker 2: with gladiator sports since the beginning of time. And don't 2229 01:53:58,240 --> 01:54:01,200 Speaker 2: doubt for a minute, you know you take this seriously 2230 01:54:01,320 --> 01:54:05,120 Speaker 2: or not. These are a couple of gladiators, and I 2231 01:54:05,160 --> 01:54:09,080 Speaker 2: truly believe that course. Mike Tyson one of the most 2232 01:54:09,360 --> 01:54:12,280 Speaker 2: interesting human beings to ever walk the face of the planet. 2233 01:54:12,320 --> 01:54:13,800 Speaker 2: He lives here in Las Vegas. Have talked to him 2234 01:54:13,800 --> 01:54:17,759 Speaker 2: many times. Believe me, I think Mike Tyson is actually 2235 01:54:17,760 --> 01:54:22,360 Speaker 2: an extremely bright man who had a very difficult childhood 2236 01:54:22,400 --> 01:54:24,679 Speaker 2: and anything he's ever loved has been ripped away from him. 2237 01:54:25,240 --> 01:54:27,839 Speaker 2: So I don't know how you'd react if that happened. 2238 01:54:27,840 --> 01:54:31,880 Speaker 2: But he is really enjoying a renaissance in his later years, 2239 01:54:31,880 --> 01:54:35,040 Speaker 2: and he's former heavyweight champ of the world. Jake Paul 2240 01:54:35,080 --> 01:54:38,880 Speaker 2: seems to be a marketing genius and you can't underestimate him. 2241 01:54:38,920 --> 01:54:44,320 Speaker 2: So look, do what you will with that. By the way, 2242 01:54:44,360 --> 01:54:47,720 Speaker 2: I will be back on these airwaves eleven pm Pacific 2243 01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:52,360 Speaker 2: time on Saturday night. It's our annual Daylight Savings time show, 2244 01:54:52,440 --> 01:54:56,960 Speaker 2: so two am Pacific will automatically become three am Pacific 2245 01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:59,640 Speaker 2: and we'll turn it over to Andy Furman. But tons 2246 01:54:59,640 --> 01:55:01,800 Speaker 2: of stuff to get into that we didn't have time Saturday. 2247 01:55:02,120 --> 01:55:05,480 Speaker 2: The Oakland A's coming to Vegas. I'll be a big 2248 01:55:05,560 --> 01:55:08,880 Speaker 2: league weekend here later today in Las Vegas, the Oakland 2249 01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:11,360 Speaker 2: A's and the Milwaukee Brewers. We'll have a guest on 2250 01:55:11,600 --> 01:55:14,680 Speaker 2: talking about the new stadium, the new stadium renderings, the 2251 01:55:14,720 --> 01:55:18,160 Speaker 2: A's moving to Vegas, among other things. We've got a 2252 01:55:18,200 --> 01:55:21,160 Speaker 2: ton of NFL free agency to get to. I want 2253 01:55:21,160 --> 01:55:24,640 Speaker 2: to revisit the Russell Wilson situation. I think there's a 2254 01:55:24,680 --> 01:55:28,800 Speaker 2: bigger market for him that you may realize. And it's 2255 01:55:28,920 --> 01:55:32,800 Speaker 2: not surprising to me at all that there is virtually 2256 01:55:32,960 --> 01:55:36,240 Speaker 2: no market for Justin Fields or maybe somebody I predictall 2257 01:55:36,320 --> 01:55:38,760 Speaker 2: into being a backup somewhere. I think Houston or checked 2258 01:55:38,760 --> 01:55:41,160 Speaker 2: that Cleveland might be a good spot. He's a backup, 2259 01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,800 Speaker 2: but let's not get into that right now. Mark Medina, Medina, 2260 01:55:43,840 --> 01:55:47,040 Speaker 2: Magic Midnight, the NBA, all kindscious stuff. Just when the 2261 01:55:47,080 --> 01:55:49,240 Speaker 2: Golden Warriors State Warriors look like to get it going, 2262 01:55:49,360 --> 01:55:52,880 Speaker 2: Steph Curry goes down with an ankle. The mlright looks good, 2263 01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:55,360 Speaker 2: but we'll see where that goes. The Lakers pull off 2264 01:55:55,400 --> 01:55:58,720 Speaker 2: a win against the Bucks without Lebron. Plenty of storylines 2265 01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:01,840 Speaker 2: to get to, all right, you heard me say it 2266 01:56:01,920 --> 01:56:07,800 Speaker 2: a minute ago. Even if you attended Caitlin Clark's games recently, 2267 01:56:09,080 --> 01:56:12,240 Speaker 2: there is a situation where it, in this day and age, 2268 01:56:12,920 --> 01:56:15,560 Speaker 2: can cost an arminal a to go to a game. 2269 01:56:16,360 --> 01:56:20,560 Speaker 2: But I didn't necessarily mean literally, or do I. There 2270 01:56:20,640 --> 01:56:22,720 Speaker 2: is a story emerging, and this is a game that 2271 01:56:22,840 --> 01:56:26,200 Speaker 2: was played over six weeks ago. Do you remember the 2272 01:56:26,480 --> 01:56:32,160 Speaker 2: fure on January thirteenth, the wild card NFL game between 2273 01:56:32,200 --> 01:56:36,760 Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins and the Kansas City Chiefs. The big 2274 01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:40,360 Speaker 2: uproar was the fact that unless you attended the game, 2275 01:56:41,600 --> 01:56:43,920 Speaker 2: you would have to watch it on peacock, and if 2276 01:56:43,960 --> 01:56:46,000 Speaker 2: you didn't have peacock, you get to pay six ninety 2277 01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:48,120 Speaker 2: nine or whatever the hell it is. That was one 2278 01:56:48,120 --> 01:56:51,080 Speaker 2: of the subjects of our midnight hour on Friday night, 2279 01:56:51,120 --> 01:56:53,480 Speaker 2: and people were none too happy. There was something about 2280 01:56:53,480 --> 01:56:56,560 Speaker 2: the principle of that that just stuck in their craw 2281 01:56:57,920 --> 01:57:01,520 Speaker 2: couple dynamics here. First of all, you know how sometimes 2282 01:57:01,560 --> 01:57:07,560 Speaker 2: there'll be a great game, you know, Doug Fluteie hits 2283 01:57:07,600 --> 01:57:11,480 Speaker 2: Girard Falen and they beat Notre Dame. Thirty years later, 2284 01:57:11,520 --> 01:57:13,360 Speaker 2: three hundred thousand people were at that game. I think 2285 01:57:13,360 --> 01:57:15,960 Speaker 2: it's actually people denying there at this game, when the 2286 01:57:16,040 --> 01:57:19,080 Speaker 2: Chiefs played the Dolphins, it was twenty four below, the 2287 01:57:19,160 --> 01:57:21,760 Speaker 2: third coldest game in the history of the National Football 2288 01:57:21,840 --> 01:57:26,520 Speaker 2: League sub zero. You notice how you always see knuckleheads 2289 01:57:26,560 --> 01:57:28,440 Speaker 2: that want to go to games with their shirt off, 2290 01:57:28,880 --> 01:57:32,960 Speaker 2: and it's always some slug that's built like a pairaman 2291 01:57:33,600 --> 01:57:38,120 Speaker 2: terrible body. Forget dad bod, forget the fact that their 2292 01:57:38,200 --> 01:57:40,240 Speaker 2: body is a temple. It's more like an amusement park. 2293 01:57:40,680 --> 01:57:44,480 Speaker 2: It's always some knucklehead guy, probably hooked up to a 2294 01:57:44,560 --> 01:57:47,560 Speaker 2: blender since early that morning, and he's determined to make 2295 01:57:47,600 --> 01:57:49,760 Speaker 2: a damn fool out of himself. Because this is America, 2296 01:57:50,240 --> 01:57:51,840 Speaker 2: you're free to make a fool out of yourself, and 2297 01:57:51,920 --> 01:57:54,320 Speaker 2: you go out when it's thirty degrees and you're wearing 2298 01:57:54,360 --> 01:57:56,680 Speaker 2: no shirt and you go raight, rah on, Wow, look 2299 01:57:56,720 --> 01:57:59,480 Speaker 2: at me, I'm in ESPN. Okay, great, well it was 2300 01:57:59,520 --> 01:58:03,200 Speaker 2: thirty this day. Well people did that. Well six weeks later, 2301 01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:06,320 Speaker 2: we are getting reports, not the kind of reports that 2302 01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:09,000 Speaker 2: you want to hear about night Talgue and Cheeks said, 2303 01:58:09,760 --> 01:58:12,360 Speaker 2: costing an arm and a leg to go to a game. 2304 01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:14,520 Speaker 2: But what if I told you that the Grossman Burn 2305 01:58:14,640 --> 01:58:19,520 Speaker 2: Center in Kansas City has now treated thirty patients who 2306 01:58:19,600 --> 01:58:23,400 Speaker 2: attended that game who suffered frostbite in January, and to date, 2307 01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:29,680 Speaker 2: twelve of those patients have actually undergone amputation surgeries. Are 2308 01:58:29,760 --> 01:58:33,560 Speaker 2: you kidding me? They even released a statement quote, our 2309 01:58:33,600 --> 01:58:37,280 Speaker 2: specialized physicians and expert care team continue to treat and 2310 01:58:37,400 --> 01:58:42,200 Speaker 2: monitor patients healing to address their long term needs. Imagine 2311 01:58:42,360 --> 01:58:45,560 Speaker 2: going to a football game and losing an appendage. Maybe 2312 01:58:45,640 --> 01:58:48,400 Speaker 2: the price you pay for doing something not too bright. 2313 01:58:49,080 --> 01:58:51,360 Speaker 2: I'm not judging these people. I'm not picking on these people. 2314 01:58:51,400 --> 01:58:54,400 Speaker 2: It's a horrible thing to have happened. It's not funny. 2315 01:58:54,840 --> 01:58:58,000 Speaker 2: One of those situations where people were denying being at 2316 01:58:58,040 --> 01:59:02,160 Speaker 2: that game because they were embarrassed. We'll pick up the 2317 01:59:02,240 --> 01:59:06,160 Speaker 2: story as it continues. See US Saturday night, eleven pm. 2318 01:59:06,240 --> 01:59:09,120 Speaker 2: Keep it locked up next to Fellas on Fox Sports 2319 01:59:09,240 --> 01:59:09,480 Speaker 2: Radio
