00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 3: there's a big story and a lot of chatter about

45
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: actually quite the opposite cam Ward. Maybe not a lot

46
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,919

48
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 3: we get into what won the day yesterday?

49
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 4: Why do they hide the straws at Starbucks? Is that?

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 4: Is that just out here in Los Angeles as the turtles.

51
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't want people just taking them and dumping

52
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 3: them into the ocean. I hate the whole I feel

53
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 3: like such an ass every time you guys go to

54
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 3: a straw, I just put them out.

55
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 4: No, yeah, they hide them behind the count.

56
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 3: Do you think if they put them out then like

57
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 3: people are gonna like abuse the straws. It's true, a

58
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 3: lot of people wondering why you would even want a

59
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 3: straw with your coffee.

60
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 4: It's a nice coffee.

61
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 3: What am I gonna everybody SIPs out of a little

62
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 3: uh worthy straw, a little silly straw like you do.

63
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 5: It's not very it's not very manly. Rich also uses

64
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 5: a straw for his alcohol at a bar.

65
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, so they do.

66
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 3: They do keep them behind the counter, I think, honestly,

67
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 3: just to conserve them and just so people don't waste them.

68
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: For people like you who go to Chipotle, speaking of

69
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 3: Chipotle and steal all the forks and knives all the

70
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 3: time because you think we have the right. They have

71
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: good civil right. And one of their Tourta bowls. When

72
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 3: two burrito bowls are forty dollars, then I'm stealing forks.

73
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean you should take three handfuls. So people

74
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 3: probably take a ridiculous amount of straw, So just hand

75
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 3: them out if and when you need them. So anyway,

76
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 3: I'm Steve Cavino. If you know the answer to that,

00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,280

00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 3: want to say, I hope you had.

84
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,840

Speaker 3: Hope you had a trade lance sort tonight doesn't even matter. No,

86
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,920

Speaker 3: sort tonight. It might be really two. It might be

92
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 3: the only time I say it all year. You know

93
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 3: what fair point? So give him promp, props to trade lance,

94
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 3: and props to the people that hide straws. I honestly,

95
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 3: I just is it feminine not masculine to sip out

96
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 3: of a straw?

97
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 4: Who knows?

98
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: But know what I want to talk about to start

99
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 3: the show today in for the herd c and our

100
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 3: how baseball is popping. Baseball is doing everything it should

101
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 3: be doing. They're marketing their stars better. They got young

102
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 3: kids interested again. There are a lot of young stars.

103
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 3: That also helps. There's a lot of big familiar names

104
00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 3: Baseball's doing. To quote Charlie Sheen in the two thousands.

105
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 4: Winn winning.

106
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 3: Baseball should be winning on August first, today we flipped

107
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 3: the calendar and we should be talking about Pennant races.

108
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: We should be talking about how great baseball is right now.

109
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 3: You know, over the last five to ten years, I

110
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 3: get it, football still came. I love football, but we

111
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 3: were a little obsessed with football to the point where

112
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 3: it was August and we were talking about preseason antics

113
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: and all this one we really should be talking about baseball,

114
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 3: and that was baseball's fail.

115
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 4: Now that baseball's back. It's very clear that this should

116
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 4: be baseball time.

117
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 3: There's so many reasons as to why, and we've been

118
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 3: speculating that for a long time.

119
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 4: But they made all the right adjustments.

120
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, we always talked football because baseball was moving slow

121
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: as the world was changing and moving faster and you're

122
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 3: scrolling on TikTok and you're so easily disinterested. Baseball was boring.

123
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: But they made the right changes. They made the game quicker.

124
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 3: That really did help. The fact that we had more

125
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 3: than one superstar in Shoheo Tani and Aaron Judge and

126
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 3: Tatis and Harper and like goes on and on and on.

127
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 4: Now, can I tell you the fact that.

128
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 3: The fact that we had the major market teams in

129
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 3: the playoffs last year and it was exciting as hell.

130
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 3: You heard it in our voices last year, the Mets,

131
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 3: the Yankees, the Dodgers, like it made it that much

132
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 3: more fun and it's set up for a really exciting

133
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 3: season this year. Well, major markets part of it, but

134
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 3: it also proves that if you're a small market and

135
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 3: play your cards right, you could win.

136
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 4: The Brewers have the best record in baseball.

137
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you got the Dodgers and the Yankees battling

138
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 3: in the World Series. When you got some other cool

139
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 3: teams in the mix in the playoffs and it seems

140
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 3: like there's a lot of teams still in it to

141
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 3: win it, it makes things exciting. That's why we saw

142
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 3: a lot of big moves. Even our guy Tim Kirkchean,

143
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 3: who's been reporting on baseball for one hundred and fifty years,

144
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 3: said yesterday's trade deadline may have been the craziest, most

145
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,239
Speaker 3: exciting he's ever been a part.

146
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 4: Of in his career.

147
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 3: And then did he say, I'm Tim Kirchean, I'm Kuran ESPN.

148
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, everybody knows it. We were all on the

149
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 3: edge of our seat, even on this show yesterday. Oh

150
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 3: my god, Well, who's gonna get who? What moves are

151
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 3: gonna be made? Are your teams gonna win this deadline?

152
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 3: And it was exciting, man. And there wasn't really that

153
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 3: many giant names but like that were traded, but some important,

154
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 3: impactful moves were made. Yeah, the moves for the teams

155
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: that needed to make moves, We're gonna see if they

156
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 3: make sense. We're gonna go over some of them. But

157
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 3: are you saying baseball won yesterday, baseball won the day.

158
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 3: Baseball is popping. They out shine to me your first

159
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 3: preseason game. Look at it this way. There's Terry McLaurin news,

160
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 3: there's you know, Micah Parsons's cowboy activity going on.

161
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 4: This story is in the NFL.

162
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: But to me, the baseball trade deadline and the excitement

163
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 3: with about what fifty sixty games to go? Hey, speaking

164
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 3: of Tim Kirkshon and ESPN, that's a bad time for

165
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 3: them to lose their deal with the MLB.

166
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 4: What if that's official? Is that not official anymore?

167
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 3: Well, it is popping again, and you gotta invest now

168
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 3: by now because baseball's back.

169
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 4: It's back in a big way. And Rich is absolutely right.

170
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 3: If you go back a few years, we'd be talking

171
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 3: football right now, without a doubt because people would be

172
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 3: tired and board of baseball. In fact, in radio, pull

173
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 3: you behind the velvet rope. When you lead with baseball

174
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 3: and you talk baseball, you lose most of the audience

175
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 3: because it's sort of a boring old guy conversation. Not

176
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 3: any more, Moore, And that's what we lead with today.

177
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: Baseball is back. Baseball's winning. Baseball one yesterday, It's August first,

178
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: and we're talking baseball. We're not ready and eager to

179
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 3: turn the page. Are we excited about football? Of course?

180
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: But are we still hanging on to see where this

181
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 3: season goes? Absolutely more than ever, more than we have

182
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 3: in the past ten plus years.

183
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 4: I said it yesterday.

184
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 3: September and October are going to be overstimulating. If you're

185
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 3: a baseball fan and now you know on the heels

186
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 3: of football coming back, you may very well be completely overstimulated.

187
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 3: With football starting, Pennant races playoff baseball the early part

188
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 3: of the NFL season, the next few months are going

189
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 3: to be pretty sweet. No what I want to say

190
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 3: that contributes to baseball popping and coming back. I think

191
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 3: baseball cards are something to do with it, believe it

192
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 3: or not, because these kids are.

193
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 4: Going wild about it.

194
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 3: So let's talk about all the little things adding up,

195
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 3: because sometimes it could be a relationship, it could be

196
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 3: a job, it could be something we're like, what do

197
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 3: you love about it?

198
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 4: It's like there's not one big thing.

199
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 3: Like all facts yesterday with the trade deadline, there wasn't

200
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 3: one big star other than Suarez to the Mariners. There

201
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 3: wasn't really like a top tier guy in my opinion

202
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: to the Astroea. You might say a couple of the

203
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 3: closers Johann uh durand to the Phillies. But I'm saying

204
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 3: it wasn't like a year where like Piazza was on

205
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 3: the move or Soda was on the move, or you know,

206
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 3: like it wasn't one of those.

207
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 4: No.

208
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 3: I think we could add up all the little things

209
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 3: and say all the little things together baseball cards.

210
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 4: That's really good in Covino.

211
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 3: I really think embracing the celebrating instead of being all

212
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 3: type butt about it. Like when the Dodgers get a

213
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 3: double and they do their silly little dance on seca

214
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 3: base if he hit flesh. Yeah, Or when my Mets

215
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 3: get a hit they do that little rolling of the

216
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 3: arms hand up, or all these teams when they score

217
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 3: home run, they wear a funny helmet in the dugout,

218
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 3: they take a selfie, they do their little celebrations. To me,

219
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 3: I got another one that is also a contributing factor

220
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 3: about the Hey, I know it's baseball and only eighty

221
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 3: year old guys really love us and talk about us.

222
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 3: But we're gonna do something called city connect Jerseys, and

223
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 3: you know, maybe that'll help bring some excitement people want

224
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 3: want to represent a little bit. I think that's great,

225
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 3: without a doubt. It's moving so fast. The Yankees changed

226
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 3: their beard policy, their facial hair policy, so jerseys, these

227
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 3: little things mattered. Merch baseball cards, celebrations stood out to

228
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: the Weieniels.

229
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 4: Can I tell you something I saw?

230
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 3: And Colin loves to point out Baseball's poppins are on

231
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 3: the same page with the guy we're filing in for,

232
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 3: the legendary Colin Cowherd. I can't help but say, when

233
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,079
Speaker 3: you go to a game now, I'm not a I'm

234
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: not a bird brain. Well maybe a little, but I

235
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: don't need to be completely entertained.

236
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 4: But when I tell you.

237
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: The entrances for the closers, the walk up music, all

238
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 3: the in stadium stuff is evatress at another level, like

239
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 3: when Edwin Diaz comes in for the Mets and Timmy

240
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 3: Trumpets is blaring. City Field now has a light show.

241
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,719
Speaker 3: When Duran who just got tried to tell you know,

242
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 3: maybe you gotta thank the Savannah Bananas for that. I mean,

243
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 3: maybe they've stepped up the entertainment factor so much. And

244
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 3: I'm sure base all said, hey, why are we shying away?

245
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 3: From family fun. But you remember, like a year ago,

246
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 3: who remember a year ago? The guy that's now a

247
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 3: Philly Johann Durant. We talked about how his entrance for

248
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 3: the Minnesota Twins was unbelievable. Like the stadium shuts down

249
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 3: and those the lights go crazy. Those type of things

250
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 3: are are right on the right track. So I think

251
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 3: we nailed it here. Baseball's back and each team has stars.

252
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 5: Again and big events like tomorrow Bristol Motor Speedway.

253
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 4: Dude, that's going to be sick.

254
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 3: Did you see the overhead of what it looks like

255
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 3: when you fit a baseball stadium on a racetrack?

256
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 4: It looks insane.

257
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 3: It's the first ever game in the state, so that's

258
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 3: extra excitement for all the kids out there.

259
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 4: And the Field of Dreams game, the Field of Dreams game.

260
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,719
Speaker 3: They do the international play once in a while now,

261
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 3: so uh, international stars. But you know what rich I

262
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 3: mentioned in passing Savannah Bananas, I do believe that opened

263
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 3: the door to Hey, baseball's fun and exciting for little

264
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 3: kids and families, and that could be a stepping stone

265
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 3: to watching the big leaguers do their thing. And in

266
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 3: related news, I don't know if you saw this yesterday,

267
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 3: but sources say the Yankees traded Anthony Volpi to the

268
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 3: Savannah Bananas in exchange for ten foot nine pitcher and

269
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 3: dh Dakota Stilts albatron. Yes, it's a good one Vegas.

270
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 3: They got rid of Volpi, we got the guy on

271
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 3: the stilts. I know it's gonna be It's gonna be

272
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 3: a big time for you. You can't wait to see this, man.

273
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 3: I wasn't sure if it was official, but I saw

274
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 3: the meme, so it has to be real.

275
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 4: Cove.

276
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 3: I don't want to discount the Savannah Bananas. Some love it,

277
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 3: some roll their eyes at it, but I'm not saying

278
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 3: it changed baseball.

279
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 4: But you know what, you.

280
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 3: Don't think it's a nice gateway for a little kid

281
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 3: if you don't think in stadium production crews, and there

282
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 3: was there's been marketing and PR boardroom meetings where it's like, hey, listen,

283
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 3: welcome the Savannah Banonders are doing. We need to incorporate

284
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 3: some of that stadiums. You now they have the sausage rate.

285
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 3: We need Fron Johnson front. You know how they have

286
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 3: a sausage race in Milliawauke. Yeah, every stadium is now

287
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 3: sort of doing their own version of stuff like that.

288
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 3: I know they got the Presidents one in DC for

289
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 3: the Nationals, but every stadium now has some type of race.

290
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 3: It's no longer just the fifth inning. Guess which had

291
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 3: the balls under on the score board? Great City Subway race,

292
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 3: by the way, I got one. I know you didn't

293
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 3: think of What Rich is doing is compiling a list

294
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 3: to figure out why and how we've come so far

295
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 3: with baseball and since a short period of time. Just

296
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 3: two years ago, we would be talking about NFL, no doubt,

297
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 3: no diggity. But you gotta ask yourself. You and I

298
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 3: are big baseball fans. We grew up playing and loving baseball,

299
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 3: and then as we got older, football became king and

300
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: baseball was more of a I wouldn't say niche sport,

301
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: but more of something. We're like, yeah, I love baseball,

302
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 3: but now baseball is popping our power, and I'm even

303
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 3: more intrigued being that I coach faster paced. I coach

304
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 3: baseball now, and these kids are interested interested. And again

305
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 3: I give baseball cards a lot of credit because they

306
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 3: came back with all these special cards and all these

307
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 3: cool unboxings you see on social media.

308
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 4: You can thank COVID for that. Yeah. Maybe. But here's

309
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 4: one I know Rich isn't going to bring up, but.

310
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 5: That is when paractors. That is when a lot of

311
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 5: card collectors came back.

312
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 3: Oh you know what, man, there's so many great cards

313
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 3: and I'm a big fan. You remember how exciting that

314
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 3: was just to get a great card when you were

315
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 3: a kid. Imagine how they feel now with all the

316
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 3: options the food. Baseball parks have stepped up the food

317
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: next level to the point where it's ridiculous. And every

318
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 3: year they're releasing new menu items at the ballpark. When

319
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 3: you're spending that much money to go, you want to

320
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 3: have a good time. I think that also added to

321
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 3: the fund, don't we find ourselves talking about all The

322
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 3: only generic food I ever have at a ballpark is

323
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 3: a Dodger dog because you feel like you have to.

324
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 3: But other than that, if I go to a stadium,

325
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 3: you got so many fun options.

326
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: Dude.

327
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 3: We just came back from Atlanta. They have barbecue restaurants

328
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 3: within the stadium. They have Chick fil A's in the stadium.

329
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 3: Stadiums there are personalized to that city. Yeah, there's so

330
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 3: many great fun and goofy options. It adds to the fun.

331
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 3: You know, baseball lost its way. It became old and boring.

332
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: It's a game. It's supposed to be fun and exciting,

333
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 3: and they're leaning more toward that. And you know, boss

334
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 3: Man hit us up and he said, do you guys

335
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 3: you named all that and you didn't even mention pitchclock,

336
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 3: pace of play, length of game. You know, bat flips,

337
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 3: tenth inning, guy starts on second base, and extra innings.

338
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 4: They are moving the game along.

339
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 3: Like I like it and hate it all at the

340
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 3: same time, because when your team has someone at second

341
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 3: base automatically in extra innings, you're like, yes, and but

342
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 3: what is the other team like?

343
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 4: No, I hate that.

344
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 3: And while we do love the added uh well we well,

345
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 3: we do love the human element of sports. I'm telling

346
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 3: you the next big one is going to be those,

347
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 3: as Danny said yesterday, the two ball strike challenges, and

348
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 3: then and then if you get them right, you get

349
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 3: the third one. Because I think even some of these

350
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 3: umpire fights and the staredowns and all that, that's good.

351
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 3: And the feuds, Danny, your Dodgers and Padres hate each other,

352
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 3: that that helps Mets phillies. You know what I think

353
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 3: helps too, though. I think again, having the Yankees, Dodgers,

354
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 3: mess those teams in it, yet still having big market

355
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 3: teams competing.

356
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 4: Like Rich said, that helps.

357
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 3: But I think it helps that even though your Dodgers

358
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 3: won Danny g last year.

359
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 4: They're not a hateable team. Show Hey, Mookie, Bets Freeman.

360
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,479
Speaker 3: They these guys make that ridiculous team that you have

361
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 3: of All Stars not hateable. So it gets people tuned in.

362
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 3: You want to beat the Dodgers, but you don't hate

363
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 3: the superstars.

364
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 4: So many superstars that you could root.

365
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 3: For that aren't even on your team that are likable,

366
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 3: and Show Hayes one of them. Well, I think that helps.

367
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 3: I want to uh, I want to point out that

368
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 3: right now, let's let's let's do the math. I'm a

369
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 3: mathematician here, guys. We just came back from Atlanta, even

370
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 3: that derby. We were at the All Star Game, everything

371
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 3: about it, the way it ended in dramatic fashion. Swing off, yeah,

372
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 3: you know, the swing off was ridiculous. The bombs, these

373
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 3: monster circus shots. These guys are hitting the exit velocity.

374
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 3: When you see guys like O'Neil Cruz just teeing off,

375
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 3: You're like, my god, you know, kids love that man.

376
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 3: So it's it's back in a big way, guys. And

377
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 3: the proof is today. That's why we bring it up.

378
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 3: Yesterday with the trade deadline and a lot of moves

379
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 3: were made. We'll speculate on that, but without a doubt,

380
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 3: we'd normally be talking about the Chargers Lions game yesterday.

381
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 3: Because you're so quick to right. You're so right that, Danny.

382
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 3: We've been here at Fox Sports Radio four or five

383
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: years now, almost right about that. Wee feels like ten

384
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 3: working would be over. Yeah, we've been doing our show

385
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 3: together for like decades now, I promise you, what is

386
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 3: it twenty twenty five? Since twenty ten, I'd say every

387
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 3: year until now. If you told me the preseason kicked

388
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 3: off in the NFL and there were some you know,

389
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 3: stories about stars like McLaurin and Michaeh. Parsons and Aaron

390
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 3: Rodgers and we were leading with baseball. This is the

391
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,959
Speaker 3: only year baseball's that back in a big way. And

392
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 3: right now, this fifty ish games left in baseball fifty

393
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 3: ish most teams have about fifty three fifty four games

394
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 3: left on the schedule. So with fifty four games left

395
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 3: right now, the Mets and the Phillies are within a

396
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 3: half a game of each other. The Brewers have a

397
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 3: one game lead on the Cubs. The Padres only trail

398
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 3: the Dodgers by three. And they just say added Mason

399
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 3: Miller in the National League. You're looking at that, that's insane.

400
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 3: You go to the American League. If you think the

401
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 3: Yankees are gonna roll over, I hate to say, because

402
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: Camino's a Yanks guy. Oh you beefed up their bullpener.

403
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 3: If you think they're gonna roll over, and just give

404
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: this division to the Blue Jays. They're three and a

405
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 3: half games only and Jean Carlos Stanton's back.

406
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 4: Bro the only the only division which is bunk.

407
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 3: I apologize Twins fans because she sort of just sold

408
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 3: everything as you just you had a yard sale. That's

409
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 3: the only division where the Tigers got it. And then

410
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 3: the West. You don't think the Mariners four games that

411
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 3: made the biggest offensive moves.

412
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 4: So yeah, there's.

413
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 3: People that say over the last fifty games they think

414
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 3: the Mariners might be the best team. Well that's the

415
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 3: other reason too. You got other fans holding on longer

416
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 3: than they've had uh in previous years. Way more teams

417
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 3: have a chance deeper into the season now at the

418
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 3: extra wild card and everything else. So yeah, these are

419
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 3: all the reasons. I mean, we went from the fun

420
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 3: excitement to baseball cards to the food at the stadium

421
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 3: speeding up the game.

422
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 4: That's that's obvious. Man.

423
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: That definitely helped. People were against it, but they made

424
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 3: the move. We reaped the benefits, and now we're talking

425
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 3: about it. Dude, the next fifty games, it's gonna be electric.

426
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: And by the way, if you're not a fan of

427
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 3: our show Monday through Friday, what's wrong with you?

428
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 4: You should be.

429
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 3: But Rich and I have a bet of who has

430
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 3: has the best record, the Yankees or the Mets, and

431
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 3: it's a thousand dollars bet, which isn't going to make

432
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 3: or break anybody, but you think I want to lose

433
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: one thousand dollars to this guy. Until the Mets got cold,

434
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 3: I was loving the bet more because the Mets are

435
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 3: two games better than the Yanks out last week when

436
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 3: it was like five game but we raised the States

437
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 3: one hundred dollars for every extra game that they won

438
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 3: by so you know, every day on there glued. And

439
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 3: that's another thing too, Rich, I think people putting action

440
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 3: on games. That also helps, you know, with so many

441
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 3: factors as to why baseball is just way more exciting

442
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 3: in the past few years. And we the proof is today.

443
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 3: And this is no ad, but for real, I've been doing.

444
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 3: We would do the reads for the DraftKings pick six.

445
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 3: Every so often I'll throw ten bucks on, like, oh,

446
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 3: a Mookie home run with a you know, a Wan

447
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 3: Soto more than one and a half bases, and oh,

448
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 3: Mike Trout with a double like I'll do those, you know,

449
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 3: quick little bets. And I think there's so many layers

450
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 3: as to why baseball's back, and I think we just

451
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 3: named like ten of them.

452
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 5: I should point out that our afternoon Drive show is

453
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 5: eighty percent NFL, so for you guys to lead with baseball,

454
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 5: it does point out that that baseball is thriving right now.

455
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 5: But the real test is going to be when there

456
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 5: are some real NFL games to compete with. Because Rich,

457
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 5: it's easy for you to brush over that Hall of

458
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,400
Speaker 5: Fame game last night. Yeah, I'm guessing you didn't watch

459
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 5: much of it. No, I watched, I watched a half.

460
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 5: How much did you watch?

461
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 3: I watched like zero PoID zero, like background, I watched,

462
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 3: I watched highlights and I was like, I looked at

463
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 3: Trey Lanson's box score and that's it.

464
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 4: But you know what, You're right, Danny.

465
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 3: If it was Thursday night kickoff, that is by far

466
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 3: what we're all watching it. Just it might be more

467
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 3: of a reflection that baseball was struggling so much that

468
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 3: a preseason football game over the last decade got our

469
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 3: interest more.

470
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 4: But not right now. I think everything really.

471
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 3: Started to shift when the postseason started to pop last year.

472
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 4: It's the wild Cards.

473
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 3: Man, My postseason was so electric last year, so many

474
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 3: big moments. That's when it all started to come to

475
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 3: fruition and come together. Of course, all the little changes

476
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 3: were in place, but that playoff series, that postseason last

477
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 3: year really set us up for all this excitement this year.

478
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 3: That Padres Dodger's first round, the Mets making their ridiculous run,

479
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 3: that Alonzo home run in the ninth inning, moments so

480
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 3: doing the little stare for the Yankees, then hitting a

481
00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 3: home run, like everything about the postseason was fantastic and

482
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 3: just to tie a little bow on it. If you

483
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 3: look at the standings right now, teams like the Angels,

484
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 3: who are slightly under five hundred are only four games

485
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 3: out of the wildcard. Well in the National League because

486
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 3: they got Oswaldo Pirazza ready to tear it up, dude.

487
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 3: In the National League, teams like the Marlins and Giants,

488
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 3: who again are slightly under five hundred, are only six

489
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 3: games out of the wildcard, so everyone's sort of in it.

490
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 3: Baseball's popping the mother FNNS.

491
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 4: Alright, I love baseball. Well stands out to you.

Speaker 3: You're not gonna go with that probably in the winter, tay. Yeah,

538
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 3: but baseball passed the barbershop test too. You know, yesterday

539
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 3: I was there getting a trim up for the weekend,

540
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 3: and all the Vato's there at shop. Man, they're buzzing

541
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 3: about baseball. I'm telling you, buzz not always like that.

542
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 3: Can it's buzzing about it. Yes, with a two clip

543
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 3: one and a half little shirt on the sides, but yeah, man,

544
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 3: it was excitement in the barbershop, just people talking about

545
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: their team and talking about the moves. And it's usually

546
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 3: football or basketball, and baseball was popping. We made it clear, yea,

547
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 3: But now we talk cam Ward, but we get you involved.

551
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 3: to watch this weekend. But before we talk some football,

552
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 3: I know we have someone on hold that wants to

553
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 3: talk Shador Sanders specifically.

554
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 4: All right, let's do it.

555
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,199
Speaker 3: I'm down to till we got Dany Jhador Terry in

556
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 3: San Diego.

557
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 4: Back it off, Terry, Terry, back it up. Holds up, buddy.

558
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 6: Hey guys, now, I get a little frustrated with ESPN

559
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 6: because they have a tendency to bury people they don't

560
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 6: like and prop up people they do. And it seems

561
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 6: like Shador Sanders has been propped up a little bit

562
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 6: too high, and Dylan Gabriel is getting buried. I mean,

563
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 6: if you compare their college stats, they're pretty similar. But

564
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 6: if you look at who they played, Dylan Gabriel played

565
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 6: an amazing schedule and beat some big teams and Shador.

566
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 6: I mean, as much as they want to say he

567
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 6: was a number one draft pick, I mean you look

568
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 6: at his mentor, Tom Brady, who owns the owner of

569
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 6: the Raiders, who need a quarterback. The Raiders took not

570
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 6: five players ahead of Shador, they took seven before Shadull

571
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 6: was drafted in the fifth round, which tells you Brady

572
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 6: might know something. But this morning, when when Herm Edwards

573
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 6: comes on and says that Dylan Gabriel is less mobile

574
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 6: than Shador Sanders, that is just that that just crazy.

575
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:36,719
Speaker 4: You know what it is too. I'm not saying you're

576
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 4: wrong by any means, but.

577
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 3: In this business, and I considers consider a broadcasting tycoon,

578
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 3: some names are just sexier than others. There's a reason

579
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 3: that you know, Lebron does anything, and they're talking Lebron, Lebron, Lebron.

580
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 3: It gets people's attention. And Sanders is a pretty big name.

581
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 3: We've grown up with that name. People care about Shador Sanders.

582
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 3: Doesn't necessarily mean he's the best, but we talk about

583
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 3: him like he is. Well, it's not just ESPN Terry,

584
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you why, because I just searched while

585
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 3: you were asking the question.

586
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 4: I searched it.

587
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 3: There was an update if the Browns had said anything

588
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 3: about who's starting, and it said currently this four people,

589
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 3: and they still have not thought about it, not five.

590
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 3: Right now they're saying Flaco pick it, Dylan Gabriel and Shador.

591
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 3: But then under that danyg would you believe every single

592
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 3: article is about shad Or Sanders from Newsweek to ESPN tox.

593
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 5: Although I found Brown's Nation Cleveland reporter Tony Grossi hey.

594
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 5: He He says that he believes the Browns view their

595
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 5: rookie quarterback as a number one pick from the neck up.

596
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 5: He says, they're very intrigued by Dylan Gabriel. So, I mean,

597
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 5: there's a good chance Gabriel is going to get some

598
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 5: starts of the season.

599
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

600
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 3: Look, they're all in it to win it. This is

601
00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 3: the game of winning, So props to dealing Gabriels. Anyone's

602
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 3: job to win. Well, I know again you're you're saying that,

603
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 3: but now I'm reading another thing, Cleveland. I'm not saying

604
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 3: it's a mess. Because sometimes a plethora, I'm sorry, did

605
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 3: you say a plethora? I said a plethora. Sometimes a plethora.

606
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 3: You even know what a plethora is? Oh see, I

607
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 3: think you have a plea of quarterbacks. Sometimes a plethora

608
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 3: is a good thing. Sometimes it just means you don't

609
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 3: have the one. Like if you're dating a bunch of

610
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 3: random people, it's probably because you haven't met the one,

611
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 3: or maybe you're just you know, an asked Magnet, you

612
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 3: don't know now four quarterbacks? Could it be that Gabriel

613
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 3: or Shador eventually steps it up? Right now, every single tweet,

614
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 3: every single report is saying that the Browns may be

615
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 3: leaning towards Shadoor. A lot of people say it'll be

616
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 3: Flacco to start the season and then they go from there.

617
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 4: But Whatsten Man? Speaking of starters, how.

618
00:30:51,480 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 3: About that guy in Miami to a Tagov.

619
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 4: Did you guys see that? I was playing it this

620
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 4: morning and Spot was like, is that real? And I'm like,

621
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 4: I hope it is? You know what it sounded like? AI? Right?

622
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 4: Do you tag.

623
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 3: If you have not heard Donald Trump say to his

624
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 3: last name, then you're in luck. Is it about ten minutes,

625
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes or so, let's make sure we pull it

626
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 3: and play it. I know, Ian, if you're listening in

627
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:30,959
Speaker 3: the editing room, please get too, he says tag Oh Vally,

628
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 3: I believe he says it like real again segment. We

629
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 3: live in the said world now where I don't know

630
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 3: if anything's real or fake, So let's also.

631
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 4: Double check if it could be completely right.

632
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 3: Well, speaking of quarterbacks, see we're talking about African Suor

633
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: Sanders and he you know, dropped to what the because

634
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 3: he's drowned talk. I know, cam Ward, you're number one

635
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 3: freaking pick. There's two thoughts about him. Danny G and

636
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 3: I were both on the same mindset last night because

637
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 3: I hit Danny up with something and then he hit

638
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 3: me up with something right after that. Cam Ward, get this,

639
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 3: has the lowest overall Madden rating for a number one

640
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 3: pick in the last twenty five years.

641
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 4: Low.

642
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 3: Now, you might say, who gives a funk or wagnle

643
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 3: my favorite encyclopedia bread funk and Wagner.

644
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 4: Gives who gives a crowd gives a terrible terry funk.

645
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 3: But let's be honest, the younger generation and gamers do

646
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 3: put a lot of stock in their Madden rating stock.

647
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 4: I mean, how many.

648
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 3: Times have you heard players like jokingly and not jokingly

649
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 3: complain like yo, yo, they got it wrong. I think

650
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 3: that doesn't matter. You're over fifty easily because everyone younger

651
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 3: knows that it's way important for these young guys. So

652
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 3: the fact that cam Ward has the lowest Madden rating

653
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 3: for a number one pick in the last twenty five

654
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 3: years says something. And Danny G read the tweet that

655
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 3: you just sent me after that.

656
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 5: And then there's a meme that says you can comfortably

657
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 5: say cam Ward is the least discussed number one overall

658
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 5: pick that's a quarterback heading into their rookie year in

659
00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 5: the past twenty years, and that.

660
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 4: All is a fact.

661
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 3: So I'm here to say this, guys, this is the

662
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 3: best thing ever for Cameron Ward. The fact that cam

663
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 3: Ward is not being talked about. There's no hype train. Oh,

664
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 3: we talked about him yesterday when he said the offense

665
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 3: is really mid right now.

666
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 4: He did say the word mid, and we like that.

667
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, he didn't say they were chopped though, No, but

668
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 3: mid meaning they're not doing that great, they're kind of average.

669
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 3: But the simple fact that the expectation is not off

670
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 3: the charts, the fact that his Madden rating is low,

671
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 3: the fact that all the attentions on Aaron Rodgers and

672
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 3: old guys and hey, is brock perty gonna earn his money?

673
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 3: Other Eagles gonna repeat, Yo, what's gonna happen with McLaurin,

674
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 3: the Cowboys gonna get it together? There's you know, thirty

675
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 3: two storylines in the NFL, and I think rookie number

676
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 3: one pick cam Ward is in the bottom tier of

677
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 3: hot NFL stories. And I think this worked to his

678
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 3: advantage because how many times are all eyes on the quarterback.

679
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 3: We saw with Caleb Williams, Oh look at me, he's

680
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:07,719
Speaker 3: a painting his fingernails.

681
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 4: And he did this.

682
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 3: He established yesterday he said in the locker room is

683
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 3: usually the front man of the band. He's the most famous.

684
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 3: He's the face of the franchise.

685
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

686
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 3: And in the division where Jacksonville, Trevor Lawrence has completely

687
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 3: underdelivered up into this point. In Indianapolis, we've joked about

688
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 3: how you know is it Daniel Jones or Anthony Richardson?

689
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 3: That team's sort of in disarray. And then you said

690
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 3: Houston took a major step back last year when you

691
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 3: thought CJ. Stroud and that crew had it together. I

692
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 3: still think they're good, but don't be shocked. Our buddy

693
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 3: Towey from the Herd yesterday was saying, how don't be

694
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 3: surprised if that is a surprising team this year, that

695
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 3: they're better than you thought. Tennessee cam Ward, no one's

696
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 3: talking about him. And listen, Nashville is a great city.

697
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 3: For some reason, it doesn't pop with NFL talk. It's

698
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 3: just one of those great cities. They're building a new stadium.

699
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 3: It's the bachelorette capital of the world. But for some reason,

700
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 3: I think it's safe to say, Danny Ryan, I think

701
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 3: everyone in this room would agree that the Tennessee Titans

702
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 3: are not a very They might be one of the

703
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 3: lower talked about teams in the NFL.

704
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 4: Ever, do you know that.

705
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 3: I mean, was there ever a time where people were

706
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 3: really talking about the Titans.

707
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 5: No, And in all the power rankings you see, the

708
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 5: Titans are in the bottom of five of the lists.

709
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 3: So there's sort of something to be said about the

710
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 3: low expectation, the low amount of buzz. It leaves you

711
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 3: the opportunity to create your own buzz because if there

712
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 3: was all this big hype, like a Caleb Williams or

713
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 3: a Trevor Lawrence or something like, then when you don't

714
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 3: deliver right away, people start saying, Oh, they're not that good.

715
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,799
Speaker 3: Is it a bust situation? All that, I think cam

716
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 3: Ward should be tickled pink.

717
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 4: I don't even know what that means, but he should be.

718
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 3: So thrillings flattered. Yeah, he should be so pumped that

719
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 3: no one seems to care. It's true, it takes some

720
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 3: pressure off the situation. Listen, gives you a room to

721
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 3: grow a little bit because you know, I commit out

722
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 3: to the criticism. If he delivers, the money will be there.

723
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 3: He'll make that in that second contract. If he's still around,

724
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 3: he'll make the money. That's not the issue. He'll get

725
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 3: the endorsements. He'll be a hero to that region of

726
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 3: NFL fans if he delivers. But the idea of going

727
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 3: into your rookie season as a number one pick and

728
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 3: there's no spotlight on you, that is comforting as could

729
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 3: possibly be. And what was Danny g saying in our

730
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 3: pre show meeting believe it or now? We have meetings

731
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 3: about this before we actually get on the air. I

732
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 3: know it's hard to believe. Plus three fifty for offensive

733
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 3: Rookie of the Year Ye, yes, sir.

734
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

735
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 5: And there was a story yesterday expectation. Yeah, this was

736
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 5: a quote from him yesterday. I've grown up watching my

737
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 5: dad wake up at four thirty am doing a job

738
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 5: he didn't like. So, you know, if I can't wake

739
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 5: up early and do what I need to do for

740
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 5: a job I do, like, I shouldn't be playing football.

741
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 3: He's got attitude. He's got a good attitude. Yeah, like

742
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 3: that he has the right mindset. I know it's just

743
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 3: a stupid viral video, but have you ever seen that

744
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 3: one of him and Shaudor Sanders thrown with each other

745
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 3: and he saw of Alpha's Oh yeah, he alphas Schor

746
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 3: Sanders big time, and he sort of pushed a door

747
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 3: in his place, and I was like, oh, cam Ward's

748
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 3: got some playables. There was actually a counterproductive I think

749
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,319
Speaker 3: for Shudor Sanders at the time to practice with him

750
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 3: and made him look bad.

751
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 4: So we shall see your thoughts on cam Ward. I

752
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 4: think breaking audio news. Oh we have it. Yeah, thank you.

753
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:44,720
Speaker 4: I h tag oh vall ya.

754
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 3: He's very good, Yeah, very good. One more time, one

755
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:53,760
Speaker 3: more time from President Trump.

756
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 4: Toua tag oh vall ya. It's so awkward to see

757
00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 4: you yet.

758
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 5: Now if you get to see the clip of it,

759
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 5: Vance Vance is standing nearby and he's just trying not

760
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 5: to crack up.

761
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:08,359
Speaker 4: I'll be honest, jd.

762
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 3: Vance is like your buddy's standing behind you when you're

763
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 3: like doing a speech and he knows you're messing up. Honestly,

764
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 3: I want to hear Trump say all of his best

765
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 3: friends in sports, names like Yannis's name, anybody he dows yesterday,

766
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 3: Henny swarries, I want to hear everybody's name, and he

767
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 3: said to it just needs to stay healthy.

768
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 4: I know some deep analysis that is funny.

769
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 3: And by the way that I don't know what was

770
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 3: better that or can we no say in a navy

771
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 3: and yesterday for water heaters.

772
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 4: I mean that's how me and my boys say.

773
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 3: But you know, I will say, there's no more daunting

774
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 3: feeling if you were given a name like that. Have

775
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,920

783
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 3: why I only say to m.

784
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 4: I honestly think that UFC.

785
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 3: Names might be tougher than hockey names nowadays because everyone

786
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 3: says them wrong.

787
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 4: Everybody, bro, Yeah it could be.

788
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, there they are a time I will never say

789
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 3: anything other than could be, Yeah, it could be. There

790
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 3: are athletes that I have I have purposely have never

791
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 3: even went there purposely, Yeah, because you don't want to

792
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 3: be that And you're right about that. Could you know

793
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 3: if you watch UFC on the weekends, which a lot

794
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 3: of guys do we do, there'll be times where the announcer,

795
00:39:55,719 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 3: the ring announcer, and the backstage reporter say the the

796
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,839
Speaker 3: fighter's name three different ways. We experienced that not too

797
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 3: long ago with better Bev and Bible, Bevil, bivel oh Dmitri, Bivil, Bible,

798
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 3: Bivil Dmitri.

799
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 4: Is it Bivil, Bible or Bevel?

800
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 3: When I tell you we were we were at the

801
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 3: fight in Vegas, and every single promoter, trainer, everyone's like, yeah,

802
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 3: and at Bevil, Bevel, Bible and is it Bijon or Bijon?

803
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,320
Speaker 3: Well we all know that now, Yeah, I have a

804
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 3: question and then we'll move on. When someone corrects you

805
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 3: on their name pronunciation, is it then rude to go

806
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 3: back to what you were saying anyway? Like Bijon Robinson

807
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 3: told the world, listen, I know almost star running back.

808
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 3: You guys all know me, but for real, it's not

809
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 3: Bijon Robinson. It's Bijon. Do you think there's gonna be

810
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:53,280
Speaker 3: a concerted effort for real? For everyone to be for broadcasters,

811
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 3: broadcasters respectfully try to make those adjustments. I was talking

812
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 3: to and I think the fan, yeah you might know,

813
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 3: but it takes you, Like how long did we say

814
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 3: Terrell Owens and it's Terrell Owens or Tyrod Taylor? Yeah,

815
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,279
Speaker 3: Rod Taylor. Yeah, there's still a part of you that

816
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 3: it goes off, like, oh, it's it's to Rod. He

817
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 3: let it go too long, right? I think if you

818
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 3: let it go, if you were you respectfully try to

819
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 3: make the adjustment, nanny, if you if you, if you

820
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 3: get wind of it, and everyone else still says it

821
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 3: the wrong way, like the example I just used in

822
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 3: the hallway, I was talking to uh Burschita, the bershonader

823
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,319
Speaker 3: Bursch that uh you know runs this place with Mike's

824
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 3: not here. Burscheto Bursh and Ian, we were talking about him.

825
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,800
Speaker 3: One of our favorite shows, can we know Dexter Resurrection

826
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 3: my dork Passenger, that's Martin. It's a great show. Dexter's

827
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 3: so freaking good. I was talking about how it's so

828
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 3: good on Paramount Plus and Ian like a lot of

829
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 3: people said, man, you know, Dexter was great, but I

830
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 3: you know, it hasn't been the same since the Trinity Killer.

831
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 3: And I said, oh, John Lithgow, because the world knows

832
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 3: him as John Lithgow.

833
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, he told us straight up, and not the name drop.

834
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 3: He was on our show and he's like, you know,

835
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,880
Speaker 3: it's actually Lithgo, but everyone says Liftgal. So you know

836
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 3: we had that experience too, not the name drop, but

837
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 3: we had Chad Krueger on our show from Nicol Black

838
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 3: Nickel Black. That's not how he's saying. No, he told

839
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 3: us it's really nickel Black. Chad Krueger is spelled Kroger.

840
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 3: But he's like, nah, I mean it's it's Kruger, but

841
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 3: a lot of people think it's Nickelback's Chad Kroger and

842
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 3: the other one. This is actually for real. You probably

843
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 3: had a crush on her in the nineties, Sarah Michelle Galaar,

844
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 3: it's actually it's not Sarah Michelle Geller. She is.

845
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 4: It's Sarah. Speak for yourself. Bro.

846
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 3: I thought you're talking Carmen Electra. Oh that's Electroal so hey,

847
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 3: you know, props to John Robinson, h TUA. And again

848
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 3: we go back to cam Ward, wishing him the best

849
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 3: in his rookie campaign. And again I always think the

850
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 3: best situations are those where you have the work ethic

851
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 3: and you you're gonna put all the effort in, but

852
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 3: there's no pressure.

853
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 4: Going under the radar. Here is gonna work to his advantage.

854
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 3: I think no doubt because there's no there's no added pressure,

855
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 3: no high expectations owing Boom to get him astok A,

856
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,839
Speaker 3: look at Caleb Williams as much as I respect him,

857
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,720
Speaker 3: and I think he's going to be a star. Danny

858
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,839
Speaker 3: g you remember Bears fans, we're talking about his rookie year,

859
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 3: like postseason baby, because when you overhip, you're only gonna underproduce.

860
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 4: For the most one.

861
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,879
Speaker 5: Not not just Chicago fans, you guys, exactly a year ago,

862
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 5: you guys were leading just about every show we had

863
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:40,879
Speaker 5: with Caleb Williams star.

864
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 4: There was a lot of talk about Caleb. And you

865
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 4: know what, Danny goes back to wrap this up.

866
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 3: It goes back to my favorite lesson I try to

867
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 3: remind all men because this applies to in the workplace,

868
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 3: in the bedroom, on a night out. You never want

869
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 3: to overpromise and underdeliver. You always want to do the opposite.

870
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 3: You always want to, you know, maybe downplay it, underpromise

871
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 3: a little bit and then over deliver. If you you know,

872
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 3: you tell some girl you're gonna rocker world in the bedroom,

873
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 3: and then you know, you come up, you know like yeah,

874
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 3: Like people are big talkers. Don't realistic expectations a big talker.

875
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 3: And the other one I always love is like, I

876
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 3: see why idiot friends do this. They'll tell their wife

877
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,840
Speaker 3: or girlfriend like, yeah, I'll be home soon. I'm on

878
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,280
Speaker 3: my way home, and I'm like, you just ordered another drink.

879
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 3: You're not gonna be home, Like, then you're gonna be late.

880
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 3: Say you're gonna be home at two am, then come

881
