0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:40.600
<v Speaker 1>little wonky on this program.

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.440

0:00:51.320 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 4>Okay?

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:53.639
<v Speaker 1>But but the Angels are in Anaheim.

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:57.440
<v Speaker 2>Well you know what I mean, La proper La rancho

0:00:57.640 --> 0:00:58.880
<v Speaker 2>La in California.

0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:05.039
<v Speaker 1>Okay, No, because southern California could be the Padres in LA,

0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:08.399
<v Speaker 1>including the Angels. All right, well, let me get you

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:10.959
<v Speaker 1>know some of the details out of the way here

0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:14.560
<v Speaker 1>eight seven seven three DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot com,

0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 1>Twitter handle a DP show Say good morning if you're

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:22.240
<v Speaker 1>watching on peacock and we have a new affiliate it's Augusta,

0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:27.560
<v Speaker 1>Georgia Fox Sports ninety four point seven, the all sports

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 1>format that they have that's new. And Tony Gray thank you,

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:35.400
<v Speaker 1>he's the GM there for adding this program to Augusta, Georgia.

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 5>Yes, Tom, do they call themselves the Sports Masters?

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm into it.

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:44.759
<v Speaker 2>That's I mean, they would probably immediately get a season

0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:45.200
<v Speaker 2>to sist.

0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, no, yes, yes, we've learned with Augusta. You

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 1>gotta be careful if you make a T shirt that

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.680
<v Speaker 1>might infringe on the name or likeness.

0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm guessing that station's logo doesn't have any specific colors

0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:00.880
<v Speaker 2>in it. No, no, not, somebody owns them to like

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 2>Augusta Green.

0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Yes, didn't. Wait, so we heard from Tom Brady, We

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 1>heard from Augusta. Did anybody else that we've heard from?

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:10.240
<v Speaker 6>Ah?

0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:10.919
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, a couple.

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>I think they've been a couple others. Those are the

0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:14.160
<v Speaker 1>heavies though.

0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:18.440
<v Speaker 5>Okay, well there's been another heavyweight. I think Phil Mickelson's people.

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's right. We had Phil with the thumb and

0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:26.519
<v Speaker 1>I go, come on, you know whatever. It's not that

0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:30.040
<v Speaker 1>you can't copyright thumbs, I know, but it was Phil's thumb.

0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>And then they said, you know, I can't believe that

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.880
<v Speaker 1>you didn't Dan didn't reach out to Phil and ask

0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>him about this thumb. He's got two weights, He's got

0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 1>two of them. Yes. Kevin Hart is taking the stage

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 1>in Vegas for Reality Check, his first stand up special

0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>in three years. Stream Reality Check now only on Peacock,

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.920
<v Speaker 1>which is where you can find this program. Northwestern has

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 1>a new head football coach, the interim football coach there.

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:00.520
<v Speaker 1>They also need a new baseball coach. You know, maybe

0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:04.720
<v Speaker 1>Northwestern goes the route of the IVY League. Maybe maybe

0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>they're not ready for the big time. Maybe de emphasize sports.

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.880
<v Speaker 1>I think they're raising a lot of money to refurbish

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the stadium practice facility. Baseball coach got fired. I guess

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:21.040
<v Speaker 1>he was abusive as well, and Pat Fitzgerald is going

0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.120
<v Speaker 1>to sue the school he got let go. Now you

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 1>have an interim head coach. You're not supposed to be

0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:30.240
<v Speaker 1>good this year. Maybe you deemphasize. You know, there's going

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:32.079
<v Speaker 1>to be the haves and the have nots. Maybe you

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 1>get a head start on everybody.

0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if you are going to de emphasize sports, should

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 2>you still be allowed in the Big Ten.

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Well that's why you don't want to leave the Big

0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Ten because there's build in money there with that TV.

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Deal, and there's people in that would make a lot

0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:49.680
<v Speaker 2>of sense that could theoretically join the Big Ten.

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:52.560
<v Speaker 1>Like Notre Dame. Yeah, yes, I was gonna say Rutgers,

0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:56.880
<v Speaker 1>but oh they're already there. Yeah, they're already there. So yeah,

0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:00.480
<v Speaker 1>they're Northwestern of New Jersey really what they're called.

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 7>So the new head coach, interim head coach at Northwestern,

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:04.600
<v Speaker 7>David Ronn.

0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:05.839
<v Speaker 5>He has no history there.

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 7>He was at Northern Iowa and the Kota State, Winona State,

0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 7>all these places he just started. So in theory he

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:17.280
<v Speaker 7>is he joins after the Pat Fitzgerald era, the hazing era,

0:04:17.520 --> 0:04:19.440
<v Speaker 7>and he was not involved in any way. He was

0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.360
<v Speaker 7>a timeline works out well for him.

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>NFL camps open up next week. Not every camp opens

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 1>up next week, but I did find that interesting. You

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:30.720
<v Speaker 1>would think it would be universal that everybody is going

0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:34.159
<v Speaker 1>to report on a certain day, or if you say,

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 1>to teams that were sub five hundred, you get to

0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>show up a week before everybody, or if you're in

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:41.360
<v Speaker 1>the Hall of Fame game, you get to show up

0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>a week before. Phone calls always welcome, Operator Tyler's standing

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>by Buster only, the great baseball reporter for the Mothership. Yes,

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.240
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk show Heyo Tani, because that will be the

0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:55.000
<v Speaker 1>story for the next couple of weeks in Major League Baseball.

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 1>And I do think that there is an outlier, a

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.320
<v Speaker 1>team that nobody's talking about who could be interested in

0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>show hey Otani. So we'll talk to Buster and see

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:07.800
<v Speaker 1>which teams he thinks will be on that short list.

0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:10.440
<v Speaker 8>Yes, Marvin, if he gets traded to a random team,

0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:15.240
<v Speaker 8>can major League Baseball flex games like up Sunday Night Baseball?

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:22.839
<v Speaker 1>All right? Sure? I guess I don't know they should, Yeah,

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>I guess. I mean the Astros and the Angels are

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:29.160
<v Speaker 1>playing this weekend on Sunday Night Baseball. I mean that's

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:32.400
<v Speaker 1>a big matchup with Otani. I don't know if he's

0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 1>pitching on Sunday Night, but yes.

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 8>But I'm saying if he gets traded like to the Twins.

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>He's not getting traded Twins.

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:40.760
<v Speaker 8>Well, I know, but just think.

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:47.120
<v Speaker 1>Of the right Uh yeah, yeah, you'd probably see more

0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>of him. Sure, yes, Paul, it'd be great.

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 7>I Otani did something completely opposite, became a free agent

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 7>and signed with Pittsburgh. You know, like just that was

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:58.160
<v Speaker 7>always his dream of some really random move that no

0:05:58.200 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 7>one expects.

0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:01.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, I grew up love thing. We are family,

0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.680
<v Speaker 1>and I just want to I want to honor Pop

0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Stargule and Roberto Clemente and Mannie Sengia.

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:09.400
<v Speaker 7>I'm a more in Milwaukee Brewer guy since I was

0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:09.919
<v Speaker 7>a little.

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:12.800
<v Speaker 1>Kid Mark in Indiana. Hi, Mark, what's on your mind today?

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:15.679
<v Speaker 9>Dan? How you doing.

0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:21.240
<v Speaker 10>The thing with Northwestern? Is the new interim coach? There's

0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 10>a lot of Fitzgerald's old staff left in other positions there.

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:26.800
<v Speaker 10>I don't know if they've been ventit or out or

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.360
<v Speaker 10>what the process is going to be. There might also

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 10>be some criminal junication with some of the victims, as

0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 10>you mentioned a couple of days ago. The school newspaper

0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:41.560
<v Speaker 10>did a real good job in bringing a lot of

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.560
<v Speaker 10>prima facia evidence with the investigtion with what happened in that,

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 10>and they still got to have a formal investigation and

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:53.360
<v Speaker 10>everything and the press conference. But it's interesting if they'll

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 10>be in a full season this year, a full uh,

0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.760
<v Speaker 10>they might not have the vacate the season because there

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.360
<v Speaker 10>might also be some criminal implications.

0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I think they're going to play football here. I just

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>want to know what direction there. I mean, nobody cares

0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>about Northwestern football. We only care because Pat Fitzgerald had

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>been there, he's a former player and had them, you know,

0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 1>playing some bowl games. You know, I get all that,

0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.520
<v Speaker 1>but at the end of the day, nobody cares. Now

0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 1>the allegations and if they come to light then you

0:07:27.600 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>know there's sensationalized then yes, then people care. Other than not,

0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:37.120
<v Speaker 1>nobody cares about Northwestern football. Let's see what do we

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>have here, Michael and fort Wayne. Hey, Michael, good.

0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 11>Morning, Dan, thanks for taking my call.

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 1>YEP.

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 11>Yesterday you all were discussing the greatest unanswered sports mysteries

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 11>and you mentioned Jordan's retirement to play baseball. Now, whenever

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:56.320
<v Speaker 11>the debate of the greatest athlete of all time comes up,

0:07:56.440 --> 0:08:00.640
<v Speaker 11>one name often rises to the top. Bo Jackson, who is,

0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 11>of course, the only human being to be an All

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:05.239
<v Speaker 11>Star in two major North American sports, which he played

0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:09.480
<v Speaker 11>from nineteen eighty six into the early nineties. Jordan retired

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 11>from the Bulls in nineteen ninety three to play baseball.

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.800
<v Speaker 11>My question is, being the extreme competitor that we now

0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.920
<v Speaker 11>know Jordan to be, do you think he was looking

0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:23.400
<v Speaker 11>at Bo Jackson when he moved to play baseball, and

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:26.400
<v Speaker 11>between the two, is it obvious who the better athlete is?

0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:27.880
<v Speaker 6>Uh?

0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Bo's a better athlete. Yeah absolutely. I mean Michael,

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:37.079
<v Speaker 1>if he grew up in the baseball environment, would have

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 1>been a better baseball player. But you know Bo Jackson

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.319
<v Speaker 1>at football in baseball, hitting a baseball is supposed to

0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:47.920
<v Speaker 1>be the hardest thing in all the sports hitting a baseball,

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:51.720
<v Speaker 1>and Bo was an all star. Michael was a double

0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:56.199
<v Speaker 1>A talent basketball wise. We know how great he was. Well,

0:08:56.320 --> 0:09:00.600
<v Speaker 1>what Bo did on the football field where they're allowed

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.040
<v Speaker 1>to tackle you and beat you up. Now, the Pistons

0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.480
<v Speaker 1>sort of did that to Michael. But Bo Jackson at

0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:09.720
<v Speaker 1>his peak doing that in baseball and football is more

0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:12.480
<v Speaker 1>impressive than what Jordan did his basketball career.

0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, pullm Michael Jordan. In that one year minor league baseball,

0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.319
<v Speaker 7>he was double A. It wasn't rookie ball.

0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:19.679
<v Speaker 5>He hit two O two.

0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 7>He had I think three homers and fifty one RBI

0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 7>and a thirty stolen bases. He was not the worst

0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:29.280
<v Speaker 7>hitter on the team by slugging. There's four guys on

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.960
<v Speaker 7>the team that were with similar at bats at lower

0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:35.320
<v Speaker 7>batting averages, lower slugging percentage, and way lower on base

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 7>so like he was not the worst player.

0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but did any of those players make the major

0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:42.600
<v Speaker 1>leagues who were below Michael Jordan?

0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:44.680
<v Speaker 7>Below Michael, Yes, there was a guy named Joe Hall

0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.120
<v Speaker 7>who hit two oh nine. Jordan hit two o two,

0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 7>So they were right about the same. Uh, and they

0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:52.360
<v Speaker 7>Joe Hall made the major leagues for a few years,

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.240
<v Speaker 7>but yeah he was. There was a four guys in

0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:57.360
<v Speaker 7>the starting lineup that worst batting average in Jordan.

0:09:57.480 --> 0:09:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, but I go back to the question I posed

0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:03.800
<v Speaker 1>either earlier in the week or last week, and one

0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:08.040
<v Speaker 1>of my students at the full Sales School of Broadcasting said, Hey,

0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 1>what's more impressive what Showey Otani is doing or what

0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Bo Jackson did? And I'm thinking you can make an

0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:18.880
<v Speaker 1>argument for either one of those with what Bo did

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:22.119
<v Speaker 1>to be an All Star in BO Sports and then Otani.

0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Imagine if Otani wins the cy Young and the MVP

0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:33.000
<v Speaker 1>in the same season. How crazy. But it's possible Bo

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 1>couldn't sustain it had the hip injury. But what he

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.319
<v Speaker 1>did when he did it, how he did it was

0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 1>pretty exciting. He just couldn't last either, And I wonder

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:47.280
<v Speaker 1>if he played football, he'd be a Hall of Famer.

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 1>If he was healthy, he would have been a Hall

0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 1>of Famer. Well, that's part of the sport and that

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:56.079
<v Speaker 1>position baseball. If he just played baseball, he probably borders

0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.400
<v Speaker 1>on being a Hall of Fame. Like talent, you know,

0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:01.319
<v Speaker 1>I thought, you see a Puig was going to be

0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:03.520
<v Speaker 1>that Bo Jackson kind of Oh my god, that guy

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:06.040
<v Speaker 1>can do everything, and then all of a sudden, it's like,

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:07.079
<v Speaker 1>where did he go?

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:12.080
<v Speaker 8>Yes, morph is bo Jackson the last mythical figure where

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:14.560
<v Speaker 8>everybody has this an insane story about him?

0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I'd say that's true. Yeah, feels like there's

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:25.679
<v Speaker 1>a bo Jackson story. You know, when you ask these

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 1>former athletes, it'll be like, give me your Bo Jackson story.

0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Boom got one. Everybody has a Jordan Boom Trying to

0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 1>think Kobe. There a lot of players, you know that

0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:42.240
<v Speaker 1>they have their story about Kobe. I know there's not

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 1>the Lebron. Hey you got a Lebron's story And they go, oh,

0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:49.440
<v Speaker 1>I remember, you don't hear that. But Kobe and Jordan

0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:53.199
<v Speaker 1>probably more than anybody in basketball. By the way, the

0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:55.240
<v Speaker 1>great Jerry West will join us coming up next Tour.

0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 5>Yes, Punk, Yeah, Bo Jackson.

0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.160
<v Speaker 7>There's a lot of printed stories about him in college

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:02.040
<v Speaker 7>baseball because on TV he didn't see it him hitting

0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.000
<v Speaker 7>the lights in the game or something like that. He

0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:07.120
<v Speaker 7>played four years for the Raiders at running back. He

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 7>had five hundred and fifteen carries. He averaged five point

0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:10.640
<v Speaker 7>four yards of carry.

0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:12.679
<v Speaker 5>That would be going down.

0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:14.520
<v Speaker 7>If he had a couple more years, a couple more carries,

0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.400
<v Speaker 7>it would be one of the greatest all time with

0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:18.800
<v Speaker 7>his there's Hall of famers who averaged four point four

0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:19.400
<v Speaker 7>yards to carry.

0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:24.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but he had speed at that size that we

0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:27.959
<v Speaker 1>had never seen. I mean, Dion was fast and and

0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:32.880
<v Speaker 1>Darryl Green fast, but they weren't big and fast, and

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:35.679
<v Speaker 1>Bo was big and fast. Dion even talked about that.

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:38.720
<v Speaker 1>He said he when he tried to tackle him, maybe

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:40.719
<v Speaker 1>it was in college. He tried to tackle him, and

0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Bo basically put his hand on Dion's helmet, you know,

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 1>the evangelist, you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna heal you

0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:50.440
<v Speaker 1>and put his hand on his helmet there, and uh,

0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Dion realized there was and I always thought that there

0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:58.720
<v Speaker 1>was friction between Dion and Bo, that Dion was trying

0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:03.360
<v Speaker 1>to be Bo by playing baseball. Already a great football player,

0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:07.719
<v Speaker 1>and then he wanted to play baseball. And from what

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I was told at the time that you know, Bo

0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>didn't like that. Dion was trying to be like Bo.

0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Whether that's true or not, but I was told that,

0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:19.839
<v Speaker 1>and Uh never asked Bo about that or Dion, But

0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:22.000
<v Speaker 1>we did talk to Dion about Bo, and he did

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:26.560
<v Speaker 1>have a funny story about him. Uh, Dale, and Iowa, Hi, Dale,

0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:27.320

<v Speaker 1>or that I remember. That's what I picked for my

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:14.719
<v Speaker 1>my theme song. I'll have that for you coming out here.

0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:18.400
<v Speaker 1>And we already had Pauli's and already had Fritzi. Yeah.

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.880
<v Speaker 7>Point, we have the Bo Jackson story. Deane Sanders about

0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:23.360
<v Speaker 7>a decade ago, was on the show and told us

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:24.320
<v Speaker 7>his Bo Jackson.

0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 3>Moment, all right, when I played for Florida State as

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:31.400
<v Speaker 3>a freshman. True story, bowl was it? Alburn back when

0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:33.480
<v Speaker 3>the back to Brent Fullard. Probably the best hand of

0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 3>the running backs I've ever seen in college. These guys

0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.680
<v Speaker 3>are unbelievable. And you know, you know you heard of

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.080
<v Speaker 3>Bo Jackson. You're kind of in awe. As a young collegiate.

0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:43.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm seventeen years old playing Florida State eighteen at the time.

0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:47.440
<v Speaker 3>Just during eighteen, Bow goes behind the huddle and Alburn

0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:50.840
<v Speaker 3>and throws his hands up as if he was sickly

0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:53.720
<v Speaker 3>designed the crowd to get it up. They start schearing

0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 3>and applauding. And I was playing left corner. Bow got

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:01.960
<v Speaker 3>a sweep to his left away from me and hit it,

0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:04.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean hit it, and he was gone. I came

0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:07.960
<v Speaker 3>out of nowhere because that was I could fly, came

0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 3>and got him, ran up on him like it was

0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:14.320
<v Speaker 3>no other With his right arm. He extended it, placed

0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:16.320
<v Speaker 3>it on my helmet like as if he was praying

0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:19.920
<v Speaker 3>for me, palming my helmet and stiffed me down and

0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:22.560
<v Speaker 3>kept going into the end zone like I wasn't even there.

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:24.400
<v Speaker 3>That was my Bo Jackson moment.

0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:25.360
<v Speaker 1>So good.

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, now I could fly, but he hit it because

0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 2>I love end that same story, Dion is able to

0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:34.960
<v Speaker 2>tell you how great he was.

0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.520
<v Speaker 1>Yes, he was, and that he was no match for

0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Bo Jackson. That's how great he was. More phone calls

0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:45.240

<v Speaker 5>Song, Yeah that was the original name of the show.

0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 4>I like that.

0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Whitest show blackest themes?

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:33.040
<v Speaker 13>Did you hear that?

0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:33.359
<v Speaker 9>Soul?

0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:34.760
<v Speaker 8>We were like, what will we do?

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:35.440
<v Speaker 5>Michael J.

0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:39.199
<v Speaker 8>Fox comes up, No, no, no, Marty McFly is.

0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 1>The young Republican. Oh yeah that's right, Yeah, Paul.

0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:47.400
<v Speaker 7>That's one of those people who went from not being

0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:50.560
<v Speaker 7>known whatsoever to an absolute star in about six weeks.

0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:53.760
<v Speaker 7>It's like Eddie Murphy and SNL. I remember when Alex Pakeaton,

0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:56.920
<v Speaker 7>the character on Family Ties. He was very popular, real fast.

0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:00.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and then uh, what was the other was he

0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Spin City? Was he on that too?

0:18:02.680 --> 0:18:02.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I did a couple of them. But then you

0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:07.920
<v Speaker 1>know Back to the Futures where it was like that's

0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:10.240
<v Speaker 1>that's what he went global. Yeah.

0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:12.600
<v Speaker 7>Well, he did a story at the interview with Michael J.

0:18:12.680 --> 0:18:14.920
<v Speaker 7>Fox actor and he said he almost couldn't do Back

0:18:14.960 --> 0:18:17.280
<v Speaker 7>to the Future because of the TV show. At first

0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:18.840
<v Speaker 7>he was gonna be kept out of it. And his

0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:21.600
<v Speaker 7>actor named Eric Stoltz remember him from the eighties and nineties.

0:18:21.840 --> 0:18:24.800
<v Speaker 7>He was already shooting episodes like the movie.

0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he shot scenes, scenes.

0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:29.320
<v Speaker 7>And then somehow they didn't like it and they found

0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:31.080
<v Speaker 7>a way to get Michael J. Fox two months to

0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:31.480
<v Speaker 7>shoot it.

0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he was shooting both. He was shooting Family Ties

0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:38.120
<v Speaker 1>back to the future. But man, history could have changed

0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a little bit there with Eric Stoltz, and that's.

0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Not a good sign if you're already shooting and there,

0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:44.240
<v Speaker 2>let's stop down.

0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I know this isn't working. That's crushing, man, That is

0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:52.440
<v Speaker 1>that is crushing. I don't know has Eric Stoltz addressed that,

0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:55.200
<v Speaker 1>because I think Michael J. Fox talked about it a

0:18:55.240 --> 0:19:00.359
<v Speaker 1>little bit. But Eric Stoltz was in Mask. He was

0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:01.280
<v Speaker 1>in Pulp Fiction.

0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:05.159
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, some kind of wonderful John Hughes movie movie, but.

0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:08.760
<v Speaker 1>He was in He was the drug guy who has

0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:12.440
<v Speaker 1>to bring Uma Thurman back to life and pulp Fiction

0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:15.960
<v Speaker 1>a great role, yeah, Lance, Yeah. And then Rosanna Arquette

0:19:16.119 --> 0:19:18.600
<v Speaker 1>is in the scene with him. That's his girl, that's

0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:20.120
<v Speaker 1>his uh, his girlfriend.

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:20.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, those are great cameos that it's such a small

0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:25.920
<v Speaker 2>role by both of them, but man, are they both

0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:26.639
<v Speaker 2>so great in it?

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:30.320
<v Speaker 1>All right, we'll get to more phone calls coming up here.

0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:34.399
<v Speaker 1>Buster Olney a great reporter and senior writer for the

0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:40.320
<v Speaker 1>Mothership Sunday Night Baseball. Sunday Night Baseball Astros Angels coverage

0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:42.320
<v Speaker 1>starts at seven Eastern on the mother Ship.

0:19:42.440 --> 0:19:42.600
<v Speaker 9>Let me.

0:19:42.760 --> 0:19:45.359
<v Speaker 1>Let me start there with show Hey Tani. It feels

0:19:45.400 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 1>like it's the only story in baseball. How big is

0:19:48.320 --> 0:19:50.479
<v Speaker 1>the coverage going to get with show Hey Tani over

0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the next two weeks?

0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:57.359
<v Speaker 6>Buster, Uh, it is going to dominate the sport where

0:19:57.400 --> 0:19:59.400
<v Speaker 6>the question is going to be asked every day.

0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.240
<v Speaker 4>You know, have you heard anything about the Angels putting

0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:02.760
<v Speaker 4>the word.

0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:05.399
<v Speaker 6>Out that they're ready to talk about Otawni? You know,

0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:08.600
<v Speaker 6>Arti Moreno in the end, in this decision, it's not

0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:11.000
<v Speaker 6>going to be Perrymanassi and the general manager you know this.

0:20:11.240 --> 0:20:13.639
<v Speaker 6>I mean, it's going to be the owner, Arti Moreno,

0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:16.000
<v Speaker 6>who said in spring training that he was not going

0:20:16.080 --> 0:20:19.120
<v Speaker 6>to trade O'tawni as long as they were contending. Well,

0:20:19.480 --> 0:20:22.480
<v Speaker 6>we're going into this two week period where they're chased.

0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:25.000
<v Speaker 6>They're going to be facing teams that they're chasing. They

0:20:25.080 --> 0:20:27.480
<v Speaker 6>start out with the Astros, then they play the Yankees,

0:20:27.520 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 6>and a few series later they played the Toronto Blue Jays,

0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:33.880
<v Speaker 6>and then they face the Atlanta Braves before the trade deadline,

0:20:34.240 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 6>and at some point in those last seventy two to

0:20:36.680 --> 0:20:40.840
<v Speaker 6>ninety six hours we should here, we probably might hear

0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 6>from Arti Moreno about whether or not he's going to

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:46.040
<v Speaker 6>trade o'tawni, and if he is traded, you talk about

0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:48.200
<v Speaker 6>a frenzy. You know, idiots like me are going to

0:20:48.240 --> 0:20:49.880
<v Speaker 6>be talking about this twenty four hours a day.

0:20:50.720 --> 0:20:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Let's look at the possibilities here, because we do. I

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:57.880
<v Speaker 1>know there's a lot of speculation. There's probably wishful reporting

0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:00.560
<v Speaker 1>for people in the media, But if you were saying

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:04.520
<v Speaker 1>how many viable candidates could trade for show Heyo Toni.

0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:08.720
<v Speaker 4>Not as many as people think. Right A.

0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:11.920
<v Speaker 6>He's making thirty million dollars this season, which means that

0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 6>to take him on for the last two months, you're

0:21:14.359 --> 0:21:17.000
<v Speaker 6>taking on ten million dollars, and you're giving up a

0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:20.320
<v Speaker 6>boatload of prospects, you know, young major league ready players,

0:21:20.680 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 6>and they're just not a lot of teams who necessarily

0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:26.160
<v Speaker 6>would entertain that. For example, if the Dodgers have made

0:21:26.200 --> 0:21:28.239
<v Speaker 6>some of the biggest moves at the trade deadline over

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:32.080
<v Speaker 6>the last six seven years, Manny Machado, for example, what

0:21:32.160 --> 0:21:34.359
<v Speaker 6>I'm hearing from general managers is they don't know if

0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:37.120
<v Speaker 6>the Dodgers this year would do that type of move.

0:21:38.240 --> 0:21:40.840
<v Speaker 6>I think the Yankees absolutely would be all in, which

0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 6>makes sense to me because you've got Aaron Judge and

0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:47.520
<v Speaker 6>Garrett Cole and gen Carlos Stan essentially being middle aged

0:21:47.920 --> 0:21:50.600
<v Speaker 6>in their major league careers, this is their opportunity to win.

0:21:51.000 --> 0:21:54.400
<v Speaker 6>The Texas Rangers are competitively relevant for the first time

0:21:54.440 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 6>in a decade. They're a team that might be in

0:21:57.200 --> 0:21:58.720
<v Speaker 6>and maybe a wild card would.

0:21:58.480 --> 0:21:59.520
<v Speaker 4>Be the Tampa Bay race.

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:03.000
<v Speaker 6>You know, their front office is not typically a team

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:05.880
<v Speaker 6>that would spend the kind of money and the resource package.

0:22:06.600 --> 0:22:08.639
<v Speaker 4>But on the other hand, they had such a.

0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:12.960
<v Speaker 6>Great first half before hemorrhaging ground toward the back end

0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:16.240
<v Speaker 6>leading the All Star Break, and maybe they would be

0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:21.720
<v Speaker 6>uniquely aggressive like when Freddie Freeman was a free agent.

0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:24.639
<v Speaker 6>They finished second in that bidding, behind the Dodgers. So

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:26.679
<v Speaker 6>I think those are three teams to watch. It might

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:29.040
<v Speaker 6>be one or two others, but not nearly as many

0:22:29.080 --> 0:22:29.920
<v Speaker 6>as what people think.

0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought the Giants just because of the location. They

0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:37.240
<v Speaker 1>were all in on Judge and Carlos Korea. Could the

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Giants be a wild card in this Yes.

0:22:40.760 --> 0:22:43.800
<v Speaker 6>But I would say again this scouting reports provided by

0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:47.080
<v Speaker 6>general managers around the sport. Far han z Aiety runs

0:22:47.119 --> 0:22:50.560
<v Speaker 6>their Baseball operations department. This is not the type of

0:22:50.640 --> 0:22:54.040
<v Speaker 6>move that he would typically make. Where again the combinations

0:22:54.080 --> 0:22:56.920
<v Speaker 6>of dollars which they have a ton of. He didn't

0:22:56.920 --> 0:23:01.080
<v Speaker 6>sign Judge, they didn't sign Korea, and the prospects that's

0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:03.760
<v Speaker 6>going to be required. And you know, I think afar Han,

0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:06.600
<v Speaker 6>in a clear eyed moment, you know, he'd probably asked

0:23:06.640 --> 0:23:09.639
<v Speaker 6>himself the question, are we close to being a championship

0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:10.400
<v Speaker 6>caliber team?

0:23:10.520 --> 0:23:12.400
<v Speaker 4>And I think the honest answer at this moment would

0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 4>be no.

0:23:14.520 --> 0:23:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Have the Angels made an offer.

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:21.879
<v Speaker 6>I don't know if they've actually put a number out there, because,

0:23:22.240 --> 0:23:24.520
<v Speaker 6>as you know, you know, the way this works is

0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:28.120
<v Speaker 6>they essentially approach the agent and ask the question, are

0:23:28.200 --> 0:23:29.800
<v Speaker 6>you ready to hear a number?

0:23:30.160 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 4>Are you ready to negotiate? And they get fended off.

0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:36.320
<v Speaker 6>Scott Boris has made a career of doing this, and

0:23:36.440 --> 0:23:39.879
<v Speaker 6>I suspect that a similar conversation has taken place between

0:23:39.920 --> 0:23:44.359
<v Speaker 6>the Angels and Otani's agent, Des Bilelo sometime in the

0:23:44.400 --> 0:23:45.720
<v Speaker 6>next six In the last six.

0:23:45.640 --> 0:23:48.280
<v Speaker 4>Months, I asked this question in the last forty.

0:23:48.000 --> 0:23:52.440
<v Speaker 6>Eight hours, Hey, any sign of any last negotiation where

0:23:52.480 --> 0:23:56.160
<v Speaker 6>the Angels go to Otani and say, look, we're ready

0:23:56.200 --> 0:23:57.480
<v Speaker 6>to put a big number in front of you.

0:23:57.600 --> 0:23:59.480
<v Speaker 4>Are you ready to hear that? In the answer, I

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:01.400
<v Speaker 4>get back with no, which makes sense.

0:24:01.480 --> 0:24:04.359
<v Speaker 6>I mean, he's this close to free agency, of walking

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:09.720
<v Speaker 6>into this perfect storm of desperate big market bitters, Dodgers, Mets,

0:24:10.160 --> 0:24:13.400
<v Speaker 6>you know, Giants, you mentioned Mariners, maybe the Padres, maybe

0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:16.159
<v Speaker 6>the Yankees. Why not play it out when you're this

0:24:16.280 --> 0:24:17.119
<v Speaker 6>close to free agency?

0:24:17.119 --> 0:24:20.159
<v Speaker 1>All right, I'm gonna make you already moreno, what do

0:24:20.240 --> 0:24:20.399
<v Speaker 1>you do?

0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:25.359
<v Speaker 4>And if I'm already moreno, not sleeping because on.

0:24:25.440 --> 0:24:28.320
<v Speaker 6>One hand, it's pretty clear that the best baseball move

0:24:28.680 --> 0:24:32.280
<v Speaker 6>is to trade him to get the prospects back. But

0:24:32.440 --> 0:24:34.920
<v Speaker 6>on the other hand, why do we know the name

0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:38.760
<v Speaker 6>Harry Frasy only for one reason? He was the guy

0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:43.040
<v Speaker 6>who delivered this singular talent Boston into the hands of

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:46.879
<v Speaker 6>the New York Yankees. If you're already moreno, olytically with

0:24:47.000 --> 0:24:49.960
<v Speaker 6>your fan base and maybe for your legacy, the easiest

0:24:50.000 --> 0:24:53.400
<v Speaker 6>thing to do is to wait till the fall, give

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:55.800
<v Speaker 6>an offer to Otani. If he turns it down, and

0:24:55.880 --> 0:24:58.200
<v Speaker 6>that's what people expect that he's going to do, then

0:24:58.240 --> 0:25:00.960
<v Speaker 6>you're off the hook. If you deliver him out of

0:25:01.040 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 6>town for prospects, that's going to be your legacy forever.

0:25:05.240 --> 0:25:08.480
<v Speaker 6>It's why last summer I think when the front office

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 6>of the Angels did its due diligence, they talked to

0:25:10.640 --> 0:25:14.040
<v Speaker 6>other teams, they collected information, took it to Artie. From

0:25:14.080 --> 0:25:17.280
<v Speaker 6>what I understand, Arty went crazy, like he was furious

0:25:17.400 --> 0:25:20.480
<v Speaker 6>that they entertained the idea of trading Otani.

0:25:21.200 --> 0:25:23.760
<v Speaker 4>My gut is that's where he lands in the end.

0:25:24.000 --> 0:25:27.840
<v Speaker 6>Especially, I mean, Otani's having the greatest season we've ever seen.

0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:30.159
<v Speaker 6>He's on a pace at fifty six homers, drive in

0:25:30.200 --> 0:25:32.680
<v Speaker 6>one hundred and twenty five runs, strike out two hundred

0:25:32.680 --> 0:25:34.840
<v Speaker 6>and thirty five guys, and you're going to trade that

0:25:34.960 --> 0:25:37.720
<v Speaker 6>guy in the middle of that season for Arty. I

0:25:37.760 --> 0:25:40.200
<v Speaker 6>think it's a lot more complicated than, Hey, what's the

0:25:40.280 --> 0:25:41.520
<v Speaker 6>prospect package we get?

0:25:42.080 --> 0:25:45.520
<v Speaker 1>We're talking to Buster only ESPN Sunday Night Baseball reporter,

0:25:45.720 --> 0:25:49.040
<v Speaker 1>senior writer. Coming up Sunday Night, it'll be the Astros

0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:51.600
<v Speaker 1>and the Angels. How long have you been to ESPN?

0:25:53.240 --> 0:25:57.040
<v Speaker 4>Twenty years, just past my anniversary, just in June.

0:25:57.240 --> 0:26:00.640
<v Speaker 1>And you were a baseball reporter, baseball writer and then

0:26:00.720 --> 0:26:03.960
<v Speaker 1>you made the transition. How difficult was the transition to

0:26:04.040 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 1>go from print to being on TV?

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:07.920
<v Speaker 4>Extremely difficult?

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:09.679
<v Speaker 6>And I get asked the question all the time when

0:26:09.720 --> 0:26:12.960
<v Speaker 6>I speak in front of journalism students and your name

0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:15.440
<v Speaker 6>always comes up because I tell the story about the

0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:20.080
<v Speaker 6>first time I did a hit on SportsCenter with you.

0:26:20.200 --> 0:26:21.879
<v Speaker 6>It was the first time I had ever met you,

0:26:22.280 --> 0:26:24.480
<v Speaker 6>and of course I had a lot of nervousness. My

0:26:24.560 --> 0:26:27.440
<v Speaker 6>heart ray was like two hundred. I got make up

0:26:27.600 --> 0:26:30.800
<v Speaker 6>for the first time to go in studio, and I

0:26:30.960 --> 0:26:34.160
<v Speaker 6>walk in and the stage manager put me in front

0:26:34.160 --> 0:26:36.320
<v Speaker 6>of a camera what's known as a single shot, and

0:26:37.240 --> 0:26:39.800
<v Speaker 6>I was relieved because I had done that before. It's

0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:43.800
<v Speaker 6>a familiar ground for me. And then the show goes

0:26:43.840 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 6>to commercial sixty seconds and all of a sudden, five

0:26:48.400 --> 0:26:51.879
<v Speaker 6>cameras and you come moving toward me. You got your

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:54.520
<v Speaker 6>great TV voice, your comfort level that I'll.

0:26:54.440 --> 0:26:57.720
<v Speaker 4>Never have, and you're like, hey, Buster, how's it going?

0:26:58.400 --> 0:27:01.520
<v Speaker 6>And all I'm thinking about is, oh my god, where

0:27:01.560 --> 0:27:04.280
<v Speaker 6>am I supposed to look? And you were very funny

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:07.200
<v Speaker 6>because you're kind of chatty, and you're also like, it's

0:27:07.280 --> 0:27:08.920
<v Speaker 6>very easy. You look at the jib and then you

0:27:09.080 --> 0:27:11.040
<v Speaker 6>come back to me, and then you look at camera one,

0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:13.000
<v Speaker 6>you give your answer, then you come back to me,

0:27:13.080 --> 0:27:15.359
<v Speaker 6>and then you look back at the GYP seconds and

0:27:15.480 --> 0:27:17.600
<v Speaker 6>I'm on airon you asked me a question about Hobby

0:27:17.720 --> 0:27:20.720
<v Speaker 6>Lopez signing with the Orioles, and I forgot everything. I

0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:23.240
<v Speaker 6>forgot who he was, I forgot what city he was

0:27:23.280 --> 0:27:26.000
<v Speaker 6>going to play for. I got forgot what position he

0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:28.960
<v Speaker 6>was going to play. You know, you've seen broadcast and

0:27:29.000 --> 0:27:32.000
<v Speaker 6>it was the flop set, you know scene that was

0:27:32.119 --> 0:27:35.120
<v Speaker 6>me with about thirty more seconds. Thank god they got

0:27:35.200 --> 0:27:37.520
<v Speaker 6>me off air in time, and you ushered me out

0:27:37.560 --> 0:27:38.680
<v Speaker 6>of the studio, I'm sure.

0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:40.920
<v Speaker 4>And I was met by Chuck Sullaturo.

0:27:41.400 --> 0:27:44.480
<v Speaker 6>It was this, you know, great editor for ESPN for

0:27:44.640 --> 0:27:47.200
<v Speaker 6>so many years. He met me and he said, don't

0:27:47.200 --> 0:27:50.120
<v Speaker 6>worry about it. You know you'll you'll figure it out.

0:27:50.280 --> 0:27:52.359
<v Speaker 6>We got you free your information. And so in that

0:27:52.520 --> 0:27:54.520
<v Speaker 6>time have been able to reduce my heart rate from

0:27:54.640 --> 0:27:57.040
<v Speaker 6>like two to eighty. It was in that moment too,

0:27:57.200 --> 0:27:58.720
<v Speaker 6>now probably about one ten.

0:27:58.880 --> 0:28:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, it's tough being a talking hairdoo buster.

0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:07.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, if you had to make a World Series

0:28:07.440 --> 0:28:08.600
<v Speaker 1>pick today, who would it be?

0:28:11.880 --> 0:28:15.440
<v Speaker 6>You know, I say the most dangerous team in baseball

0:28:15.600 --> 0:28:18.520
<v Speaker 6>right now would be the Philadelphia Phillies, which is really

0:28:19.040 --> 0:28:21.680
<v Speaker 6>odd because you know, the Braves have been playing out

0:28:21.720 --> 0:28:25.000
<v Speaker 6>of their minds They've actually gained games in the standings

0:28:25.720 --> 0:28:28.600
<v Speaker 6>over the last over the Phillies the last month. But

0:28:28.800 --> 0:28:31.960
<v Speaker 6>since June third, the Phillies are twenty three and nine.

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:34.919
<v Speaker 6>They have a two nine six ERA. Their pitching has

0:28:35.000 --> 0:28:39.040
<v Speaker 6>come together dramatically. They have an ERA more than half

0:28:39.080 --> 0:28:40.960
<v Speaker 6>a run better than any other team. And you know,

0:28:41.120 --> 0:28:44.440
<v Speaker 6>Dave Dombrowski had a Baseball ops. If they have holes

0:28:44.480 --> 0:28:47.240
<v Speaker 6>before the deadline, they're going to fill them. They haven't

0:28:47.280 --> 0:28:49.840
<v Speaker 6>seen the best out of trade turner. Rice Harper hasn't

0:28:49.880 --> 0:28:52.800
<v Speaker 6>hit for power yet he will eventually. That's why I

0:28:52.880 --> 0:28:56.960
<v Speaker 6>think the Braves head of Baseball ops Alexanthopolos, he needs

0:28:57.040 --> 0:29:00.600
<v Speaker 6>to fix that pitching staff and plug holes. They're okay,

0:29:01.320 --> 0:29:03.800
<v Speaker 6>haven't got Max Freed back yet, but at some point

0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:06.320
<v Speaker 6>when they do, He's got to identify pitching because I

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:09.120
<v Speaker 6>think the Phillies are a really dangerous team in the

0:29:09.160 --> 0:29:11.240
<v Speaker 6>postseason with the front of their rotation.

0:29:11.400 --> 0:29:12.640
<v Speaker 1>What about the American.

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:18.880
<v Speaker 4>Boy, I would have told you a month ago that

0:29:19.240 --> 0:29:21.120
<v Speaker 4>it would be the Tampa Bay Rays. I'm kind of

0:29:21.160 --> 0:29:21.880
<v Speaker 4>conflicted now.

0:29:22.080 --> 0:29:24.840
<v Speaker 6>I do feel like that if the Yankees make a

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:28.560
<v Speaker 6>big move, as much as they're struggling now, if they

0:29:28.640 --> 0:29:33.160
<v Speaker 6>get judged back. This is their best postseason pitching staff

0:29:33.640 --> 0:29:35.120
<v Speaker 6>that I think they may have put together in the

0:29:35.200 --> 0:29:38.840
<v Speaker 6>last five or six years, because that bullpen is totally dominant.

0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:42.360
<v Speaker 6>Rodin is back, you got Garrett Cole. Let's play it out.

0:29:42.440 --> 0:29:45.040
<v Speaker 6>Let's say they do give up the players to get Otani,

0:29:45.600 --> 0:29:47.680
<v Speaker 6>that would be the team to beat in the American Lake.

0:29:49.040 --> 0:29:51.920
<v Speaker 1>But that added pressure on Judge then to come back.

0:29:54.360 --> 0:29:55.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think there is.

0:29:55.760 --> 0:29:59.719
<v Speaker 6>But I also believe that the way the Yankees culturally

0:30:00.120 --> 0:30:02.920
<v Speaker 6>their players, they always play the long game. You know,

0:30:03.080 --> 0:30:06.120
<v Speaker 6>teams will often try to rest players back from injuries.

0:30:06.160 --> 0:30:09.360
<v Speaker 6>The Yankees always consider to be October part of their season,

0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:10.400
<v Speaker 6>so I think.

0:30:10.280 --> 0:30:11.400
<v Speaker 4>They're going to slow play it.

0:30:11.680 --> 0:30:14.960
<v Speaker 6>They'll follow his body because, let's face it, given the calendar,

0:30:15.320 --> 0:30:17.480
<v Speaker 6>if he has one setback, then that's it.

0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:18.920
<v Speaker 4>He's done for the year.

0:30:20.040 --> 0:30:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Buster, are great to talk to you is always thanks

0:30:21.960 --> 0:30:22.560
<v Speaker 1>for joining us.

0:30:23.520 --> 0:30:25.000
<v Speaker 4>Thanks Dan, always fun to talk with you.

0:30:25.680 --> 0:30:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Buster only ESPN Sunday Night Baseball and he's part of

0:30:29.960 --> 0:30:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the festivities this Sunday night. It'll be the Astros and

0:30:33.040 --> 0:30:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the Angels. I told you there was a surprise team,

0:30:36.400 --> 0:30:39.959
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay Rays, and you'd think, well, small market are

0:30:40.000 --> 0:30:42.480
<v Speaker 1>they going to be able to afford him? And I

0:30:42.600 --> 0:30:44.920
<v Speaker 1>thought that that was interesting. You know, you have the

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 1>usual suspects here with the Yankees and the Dodgers, maybe

0:30:49.520 --> 0:30:52.840
<v Speaker 1>the Padres, maybe the Giants. Feels like there's five teams

0:30:53.240 --> 0:30:55.520
<v Speaker 1>that but you have to have you got to be

0:30:55.560 --> 0:30:57.440
<v Speaker 1>able to afford him. But you also don't have to

0:30:57.480 --> 0:31:02.400
<v Speaker 1>have the prospects to give to the Angels here. So

0:31:02.560 --> 0:31:06.320
<v Speaker 1>it's not just hey, we're gonna pay you all this money. No,

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:08.480
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna pay you all this money, and we got

0:31:08.600 --> 0:31:10.680
<v Speaker 1>to give you prospects here. Yeah, Pauling the.

0:31:10.720 --> 0:31:14.000
<v Speaker 7>Highest payrolls in baseball right now. Mets are one, Yankees two,

0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:18.480
<v Speaker 7>the Padres are three, the Philadelphia Phillies are four. Dodgers

0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 7>and Angels are both fifth and sixth. Then you go

0:31:21.280 --> 0:31:24.880
<v Speaker 7>like Toronto, Atlanta, you gotta go. Tampa Bay is twenty

0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:27.600
<v Speaker 7>eighth in salary team salary at seventy three million.

0:31:27.720 --> 0:31:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that would be a shocker if they were in

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:34.480
<v Speaker 1>the in the race for show, hey, TONI Yeah, And

0:31:34.560 --> 0:31:37.000
<v Speaker 1>I left out the Mets too, especially with their owner

0:31:37.080 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 1>and disappointing year. Disappointing year for the Padres and the

0:31:40.600 --> 0:31:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Mets when you consider how much money they spent. A

0:31:43.240 --> 0:31:45.800
<v Speaker 1>couple of phone calls Tom in North Carolina. Hi, Tom,

0:31:45.840 --> 0:31:49.960
<v Speaker 1>what's on your mind today? Hey?

0:31:50.040 --> 0:31:50.240
<v Speaker 3>Tom?

0:31:52.360 --> 0:31:57.120
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I do have a conspiracy, a sports conspiracy or

0:31:57.280 --> 0:31:59.920
<v Speaker 9>mystery you guys are talking about. But first I wanted

0:31:59.920 --> 0:32:02.360
<v Speaker 9>to give your heads up. Me and Doug in North Carolina.

0:32:02.440 --> 0:32:07.160
<v Speaker 9>I'm going to head north because James in Virginia. You'll

0:32:07.200 --> 0:32:08.520
<v Speaker 9>be up there sometime this afternoon.

0:32:08.640 --> 0:32:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay, if you do, Ryan and Honolulu, Austin and Virginia,

0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:16.600
<v Speaker 1>then everybody gets a pie to the face. All right,

0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:17.720
<v Speaker 1>A good deal, Okay.

0:32:18.920 --> 0:32:22.760
<v Speaker 9>All right, Dan. So my conspiracy theory is a lot

0:32:22.840 --> 0:32:27.440
<v Speaker 9>of these conspiracies could involve Jordans. I was looking online.

0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:32.360
<v Speaker 9>Is Michael Jordan the biological father of Jimmy Butler?

0:32:35.680 --> 0:32:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Hey, I don't know, Tom. Probably not going to spend

0:32:39.120 --> 0:32:43.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot of time this weekend thinking about that. Although

0:32:43.480 --> 0:32:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I saw where Jimmy Butler could be dating. Who is

0:32:49.160 --> 0:32:55.320
<v Speaker 1>he dating? I just saw this where I went, oh, well, yeah,

0:32:55.400 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Pauline Shakira, Yes, yeah, they had it. They had a

0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:01.920
<v Speaker 1>cozy dinner in London, all right, yeah.

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:03.320
<v Speaker 5>I found multiple reports of that.

0:33:03.520 --> 0:33:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, all right, yeah, and everybody say the same thing.

0:33:08.160 --> 0:33:16.120
<v Speaker 1>Him still wasn't Tom Brady also in that in the

0:33:16.200 --> 0:33:19.920
<v Speaker 1>mix Shakira, I think they went to a Formula one race.

<v Speaker 1>No matter where Brady goes, if he's in the vicinity,

0:33:23.440 --> 0:33:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I think they're they're trying to pair him with Emily Ratkowski.

0:33:28.640 --> 0:33:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Well he was just getting paired with a Kardashian as well. Yeah,

<v Speaker 1>to find like a school teacher, you know, somebody who's

0:33:40.040 --> 0:33:42.240

0:33:42.280 --> 0:33:45.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit you know, just not as fast, you know,

0:33:45.720 --> 0:33:47.920
<v Speaker 1>slow down a little bit. Yes, I totally agree.

0:37:40.320 --> 0:37:41.960
<v Speaker 1>I told you. I mean I told you that.

0:37:42.360 --> 0:37:42.520
<v Speaker 9>I know.

0:37:43.080 --> 0:37:45.040
<v Speaker 1>You know what if you do this long enough, for

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:47.560
<v Speaker 1>as many hours as as we do it, and then

0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:50.800
<v Speaker 1>you'll make a prediction. And then you'll go, God, is

0:37:50.880 --> 0:37:53.719
<v Speaker 1>that counter to what I said like three weeks ago?

0:37:54.520 --> 0:37:57.799
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes and it changes, but you forget because you feel

0:37:57.880 --> 0:38:00.560
<v Speaker 1>strongly about this. A couple of weeks ago, I'm like,

0:38:00.800 --> 0:38:03.800
<v Speaker 1>they got to keep him. They have to know that

0:38:04.280 --> 0:38:05.960
<v Speaker 1>he wants to stay there. You have to have some

0:38:06.200 --> 0:38:09.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of inkling. I just can't imagine being in the

0:38:09.040 --> 0:38:13.120
<v Speaker 1>same building you're running the team that Artie Moreno doesn't

0:38:13.200 --> 0:38:16.279
<v Speaker 1>go up to show hey and go help me out here.

0:38:17.200 --> 0:38:19.680
<v Speaker 1>I want you to get paid. Do we need to

0:38:19.760 --> 0:38:21.000
<v Speaker 1>go to free agency?

0:38:21.080 --> 0:38:21.239
<v Speaker 3>Here?

0:38:22.719 --> 0:38:24.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to build around you. I want to continue

0:38:25.000 --> 0:38:29.200
<v Speaker 1>to do this, And how can I do that? Like,

0:38:29.239 --> 0:38:32.200
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't you do that? Wouldn't you say? Just help me understand?

0:38:32.960 --> 0:38:34.560
<v Speaker 1>And then he might go, you know what, talk to

0:38:34.640 --> 0:38:38.520
<v Speaker 1>my agent. And then if that's the case, then I go, Okay,

0:38:38.800 --> 0:38:40.640
<v Speaker 1>Then I got to I got to start thinking like

0:38:40.719 --> 0:38:45.120
<v Speaker 1>a businessman. As much as I love having him, and

0:38:45.239 --> 0:38:48.360
<v Speaker 1>you got lucky that you got him, because the Dodgers

0:38:48.560 --> 0:38:51.600
<v Speaker 1>should have had show Aotani a couple of times when

0:38:51.640 --> 0:38:56.040
<v Speaker 1>he was in Japan, but this time around, now you

0:38:56.160 --> 0:38:58.120
<v Speaker 1>got to start thinking about the franchise. Gampum.

0:38:58.200 --> 0:38:59.520
<v Speaker 7>One thing that stuck out to me about what you

0:38:59.600 --> 0:39:01.439
<v Speaker 7>asked by Stroll, only have they made him an offer?

0:39:01.520 --> 0:39:03.879
<v Speaker 7>He goes, well, Dan, I don't know that, but he goes,

0:39:04.080 --> 0:39:06.040
<v Speaker 7>there might be a situation where the agent says, we're

0:39:06.080 --> 0:39:09.080
<v Speaker 7>not prepared to accept offers at this time, where they

0:39:09.120 --> 0:39:12.400
<v Speaker 7>can't even get the negotiation process started. There's no negotiation,

0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:14.240
<v Speaker 7>Like they want to go to free agency so badly

0:39:14.719 --> 0:39:16.200
<v Speaker 7>that they will not have any conversation.

0:39:16.280 --> 0:39:18.000
<v Speaker 1>But if that's the case, then you say, all right,

0:39:18.320 --> 0:39:20.200
<v Speaker 1>if you're going to do that, then we have to

0:39:20.280 --> 0:39:23.120
<v Speaker 1>do what's best for us. Yeah, Like, at some point

0:39:23.200 --> 0:39:25.880
<v Speaker 1>you have to call somebody's bluff and just say do

0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:28.560
<v Speaker 1>you want to be here? Because if you do, we'll

0:39:28.600 --> 0:39:32.959
<v Speaker 1>do everything possible to make this work. But if you don't,

0:39:33.080 --> 0:39:35.239
<v Speaker 1>you want to take it to free agency. Now, you

0:39:35.400 --> 0:39:37.719
<v Speaker 1>leave us as no choice because we may lose you.

0:39:39.480 --> 0:39:44.400
<v Speaker 1>If you really love this team, this owner, this ballpark,

0:39:44.920 --> 0:39:50.000
<v Speaker 1>this environment, help us, and if not, then we have

0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:53.400
<v Speaker 1>to start looking at a trade partner. You don't like it,

0:39:53.920 --> 0:39:55.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, keep in mind, the Red Sox didn't get

0:39:55.800 --> 0:40:01.680
<v Speaker 1>players back for Babe Ruth. He was purchased Dad. You know,

0:40:01.719 --> 0:40:05.320
<v Speaker 1>it's not like you've got you know, seven players, five players.

0:40:06.920 --> 0:40:08.920
<v Speaker 1>It was just a transaction.

0:40:09.800 --> 0:40:10.200
<v Speaker 3>What was it?

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:11.400
<v Speaker 1>One hundred thousand dollars?

0:40:11.520 --> 0:40:12.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, anywhere?

0:40:12.280 --> 0:40:14.239
<v Speaker 7>They said about one hundred and twenty five all told,

0:40:14.800 --> 0:40:16.240
<v Speaker 7>which at that time was monstrous.

0:40:16.920 --> 0:40:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh Al in Atlanta, Hi Al, what's on your mind today?

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:21.600
<v Speaker 11>Good morning, Dan.

0:40:22.760 --> 0:40:25.279
<v Speaker 13>I also happened to be up in Exit in New

<v Speaker 9>We hopped in the car to make this three hour

0:40:31.600 --> 0:40:32.600
<v Speaker 9>drive in two hours.

0:40:32.680 --> 0:40:34.560
<v Speaker 13>So we were wondering if we could come in too.

0:40:35.320 --> 0:40:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Of course you can't.

0:40:36.120 --> 0:40:37.760
<v Speaker 11>I'm kidding, Dan, Oh, I'm kidding.

0:40:37.760 --> 0:40:39.120
<v Speaker 13>I'm tell a thousand miles south of ye.

0:40:39.280 --> 0:40:39.440
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:40:39.960 --> 0:40:43.640
<v Speaker 13>The reason I'm calling in today is there's an ongoing

0:40:43.719 --> 0:40:47.239
<v Speaker 13>dispute between myself and my cousins in Seattle, and for

0:40:47.320 --> 0:40:50.239
<v Speaker 13>the last six years we have been arguing about what

0:40:50.640 --> 0:40:53.560
<v Speaker 13>is the worst way to lose to the Patriots in

0:40:53.680 --> 0:40:56.200
<v Speaker 13>the Super Bowl, and we need you and the dan

0:40:56.280 --> 0:40:59.880
<v Speaker 13>Nets to end this argument once and for all.

0:41:00.239 --> 0:41:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So, Malcolm Butler or twenty eight to three? Yeah,

0:41:05.840 --> 0:41:11.680
<v Speaker 1>which one was the worst? Twenty eight to three? I'm

0:41:11.800 --> 0:41:16.319
<v Speaker 1>sorry now, Yeah still hurts. Yeah, twenty eight to three,

0:41:17.600 --> 0:41:21.000
<v Speaker 1>because all you have to do is kick a field goal.

0:41:21.480 --> 0:41:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Don't lose any yards. Kick a field goal to score game.

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Brady's not bringing you back from that. You had it,

0:41:30.719 --> 0:41:34.000
<v Speaker 1>You had it. Then you go throw a pass, then

0:41:34.040 --> 0:41:36.239
<v Speaker 1>you get sacked. Now all of a sudden you're out

0:41:36.239 --> 0:41:39.120
<v Speaker 1>a field goal range. Now you give Tom the ball

0:41:39.200 --> 0:41:44.200
<v Speaker 1>and some time ball game twenty eight three. Yeah, poem.

0:41:44.440 --> 0:41:46.400
<v Speaker 7>Seahawks fans thought they were winning the Super Bowl for

0:41:46.440 --> 0:41:48.560
<v Speaker 7>about two or three minutes and then it got taken

0:41:48.600 --> 0:41:51.200
<v Speaker 7>up front of him. Falcons fans were about an hour

0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:53.480
<v Speaker 7>of dining out, like we're gonna beat We're gonna smoke

0:41:53.560 --> 0:41:56.839
<v Speaker 7>the Patriots. They went to halftime the whole third quarter

0:41:56.880 --> 0:41:59.319
<v Speaker 7>they were celebrating probably for an hour.

0:42:00.320 --> 0:42:01.560
<v Speaker 5>We're gonna smoke the Patriot.

0:42:01.680 --> 0:42:05.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Then then you get to the who's gonna be

0:42:05.360 --> 0:42:08.880

0:42:16.120 --> 0:42:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah, we're really we're gonna embarrass them. This could

0:42:18.800 --> 0:42:21.840
<v Speaker 1>be the biggest, you know, blowout in Super Bowl history.

0:42:22.760 --> 0:42:25.080
