Speaker 1: my base.

Speaker 3: Friend Mike Hard. I'm an ass man.

12
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: For over forty years, Tyrak's been oping customers find the

17
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: tell you what, Mike I'm I am. I'm really embarrassed

18
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: right now. I'm really embarrassed. Tell you how embarrassed I

19
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: am right now this moment in time.

20
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 3: In this moment in time, the Mets won six to one,

21
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 3: so they didn't do it too now the Mets. Aronzo

22
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 3: is thirty seventh home or thirty seven.

23
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: King Tong, King Tong, ain't God blake on.

24
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: Me, King Tom.

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: Eventually someone puts on the turn a kit and stops

26
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 3: the bleeding. All right, So we got that going on.

27
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 3: We got some Thursday night football. And that's why I'm embarrassed.

28
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 3: That's why you're embarrassed. Why I'm embarrassed. Why is that?

29
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: Well, because right now I love jumping in Mondays and

30
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: Thursdays are so great. We jump right in with a

31
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: oh an NFL game back in half, just getting underway. Yeah,

32
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: about eight and a half to go, and the Bills

33
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: are holding on to a twenty one to fourteen lead

34
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: over the Dolphins. Somehow, a game the Bills should be

35
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: winning by fifty. The Dolphins are a touchdown down despite

36
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: the fact that Tua has thrown for sixty yards tonight.

37
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 3: An operational efficiency. Man, it doesn't need to be gaudy, and.

38
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: They're not running the football like crazy. They have sixty

39
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: seven yards rushing. Now Ali Gordon started to get a

40
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: chance here running the foot.

41
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: Well, you know, there he is. There's a tweet that

42
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 3: will read someone related to the Ali Gordon touchdown. A

43
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 3: little later, the.

44
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: Bills offense has been the Bills offense right like Josh

45
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: Allen's got two touchdowns, James cook Is it's seventy six

46
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: and a touchdown, Dalton and Kaid having the big night,

47
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: maybe the year three breakout for a tight end. But

48
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 1: this is why I'm embarrassed. This is why I'm embarrassed,

49
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: because the Dolphins are terrible.

50
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 3: Right.

51
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: We talked about this last night. If the Dolphins somehow

52
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: win this game, it would be the biggest upset of

53
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: the twenty twenties. As bad as things have been for

54
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: the Dolphins the first two weeks, we've had other games

55
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: with a little bit bigger points. President I think they

56
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: went off at like thirteen point dogs today, close to

57
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: thirteen someway.

58
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 3: Wow, we got back out there because I saw it

59
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 3: at eleven earlier today, So maybe a late swell.

60
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: But yeah, they thought Bob Greasy was playing quarterback. Well maybe,

61
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: and so this would be as bad as it's been

62
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: the first week of a no show. The second week

63
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 1: they lose at home at one o'clock on Sunday, where

64
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: they won like eighty percent of their games the last

65
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: forty years. It's as embarrassing as it could be. And

66
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: here are the Dolphins hanging close right, It's a one

67
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: score game midway through the third quarter. Somehow this game

68
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: pad defying logic that the Bills have like three hundred

69
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: yards of nearly three hund yards of total offense and

70
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: yet it's a one score game.

71
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 3: This is why I'm embarrassed. Well, a little bit of

72
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 3: juice coming right off the jump with the opening kickoff

73
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 3: return fifty four yards, putting them in plus field position.

74
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 3: Hence you didn't need all the yardage nah, and the

75
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 3: gaudy stats for the first possession, which ended with that

76
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 3: touchdown run that you mentioned before from Ali Gordon, much

77
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 3: to the chagrin of a lot of fantasy owners who

78
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: are looking for stuff. But we've seen some opportunities for

79
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill to make plays. He actually made a nice

80
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 3: catch over the middle late in that first half that

81
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 3: helped set up their second score. But yeah, for the Bills,

82
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: they moved the ball pretty well. Both offensive lines have

83
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 3: just looked terrible for a good chunk of this game.

84
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 3: Some good blocking out out front by the Bills wide

85
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: receiver setting up that Dalton Kincaid big catch down to

86
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,839
Speaker 3: the three a little earlier before the James Cook touchdown run.

87
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 3: But all of that to say you had a great

88
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 3: possession that ended in a really horribly shanked field goal

89
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 3: attempt by Matt Prater. So there's some points on the board,

90
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 3: and like the Dolphins are prideful, they weren't gonna go

91
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 3: down without a fight. Now, will they have enough to

92
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: stand up when it's all said and done and will

93
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 3: we get past the eleven, the twelve to thirteen wherever

94
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 3: you got in on that time continue? I don't know,

95
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 3: but yeah, for Tua and company, they've they've at least

96
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 3: showed a little bit of fight after no showing for

97
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 3: two weeks. Now, here's why I'm embarrassed.

98
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: Now, this is why you're Here's why I'm embarrassed. Right, Yeah,

99
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: all great coaching points about the Dolphins. The Dolphins still stink, right,

100
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: They still there. Still they stink, they but they're trying.

101
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: This game is a one score game. Yeah, midway through

102
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: the third quarter, the Jets had one hundred yards of

103
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: offense on the Bills going to the final drive of

104
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,919
Speaker 1: the game. Last week, Justin Fields completed two passes. The

105
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: Jets may be even worse than I think they are.

106
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 3: That's how bad it. That's that's where this got That's

107
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,799
Speaker 3: where this got your brain going put out.

108
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: A body game on Sunday, a sea game. In fact,

109
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: I didn't even think they took postgame showers. Hey, we

110
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: just get right in the plane and go back. You

111
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: don't need a shower.

112
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 3: We all feel good. Listen, I think we have a

113
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 3: little bit of a drought going on. We're okay right here.

114
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 3: We're just gonna let let the let the Jets do

115
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 3: their thing. We don't need everyone.

116
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: Just go to the just get on the bus, and

117
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: you know, I just got on the bus. Go back

118
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: to the airport. We'll fly back. It was a sea

119
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: game for the Bills on Sunday, a sea game, and

120
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: they dusted the Jets, and the Jets looked like they

121
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: were absolutely starting over at which they kind of are,

122
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 1: like they're starting over again for the thirteenth time in

123
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: the last fourteen years. Uh, that the Jets might be

124
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: worse than even Like I knew after Week one, Hey,

125
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: everything isn't gonna be sunshine, lollipops and rainbows going into

126
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: week two, because they're gonna they're gonna really Sometimes week

127
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: one ends your season. And that was an awful loss

128
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,799
Speaker 1: to Rogers and the Steelers, and it wasn't full of optimism.

129
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: It was everything went right for the Jets and they

130
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: still lost. So of course they come up flat next

131
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 1: week against Buffalo, which I've seen a million times, and

132
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: now that they might be one of the worst teams

133
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Like what, like, I don't know, I

134
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: don't This is where I've gone with the first two

135
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: and a half quarters of this game. Is I went

136
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: from Hey, in the last couple of weeks, Hey, maybe

137
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: the Jets can do a TV A team that hangs

138
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: around five hundred most of the season, gets into December

139
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: where the season isn't lost, And this time next year

140
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: we're thinking about the Jets a little bit differently, and

141
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn is done. But really, the Jets might be

142
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: as bad as the Saints, as bad as the Browns,

143
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: as bad as a lot of these teams. Because this

144
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense at all. How the Dolphins who

145
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: quit before the season began.

146
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 3: It's a one.

147
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: Score game, It's a close game on the road on

148
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: Thursday night. They're keeping this a close game, and the

149
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: Jets just got boat Right's Like, I really they may

150
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: be I mean, Jets, Saints, Browns, like these may be

151
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: the three war teams in the NFL.

152
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 3: Well, maybe the Jets really actually tend to rize them

153
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 3: and it was a tougher battle than you thought. Or

154
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 3: maybe the Bills are sleepwalking thinking they had a walkover

155
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 3: opponent coming in, even if it is a divisional game.

156
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: But to that point, I mean, we watched some big

157
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 3: holes open up. We saw a chan with a couple

158
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 3: of runs. You saw the touchdown from Gordon who has

159
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 3: had some time to throw this Bill's defense, and again

160
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 3: this doesn't make you feel any better, but they can

161
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 3: be gotten. For the Jets coming into the year, what

162
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 3: were they add five and a half or six wins?

163
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 3: I know you were optimistic that culture and everything that

164
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 3: is built would happen in year one. I think they're

165
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 3: showing you the other. By the way, the Dolphins are

166
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 3: only at six and a half wins, so they're not

167
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 3: exactly running away and hiding here, but certainly a much

168
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: better effort. And yet another one of these early season

169
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 3: divisional games.

170
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: This is just just it makes me just okay, all right,

171
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: then I need the Mets to fly me over to

172
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: the Knicks. Fly me over the Jets and into the Knicks.

173
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: That's what I need. That's how bad it is, like

174
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: I really I think this is so. I'm so at

175
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: the point where, hey, after you know, there's oh and

176
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: two teams in the NFL so far that that are bad.

177
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: There's oh and two teams in the NFL that are

178
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: good with rough starts, that still have a chance to

179
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: pull themselves out of it.

180
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 3: Teams like the Chiefs and the Texans.

181
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: Sure, and there's also teams, well, you're oh and two

182
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: because you're oh and two when you stink. And clearly

183
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: the Dolphins are are better than the Jets. Seeing this

184
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: right now, so I'd say the Jets and Cleveland, even

185
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: Tennessee as bad as they're starting over with cam Ward

186
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: who then let him throw the ball eight times and

187
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: a half.

188
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 4: Uh.

189
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: Even the Giants almost beat the Cowboys are better. Even

190
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: the Bears, who at least are scoring some points a

191
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: little bit in their offenses, is a little bit better

192
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 1: than you think it is. Even Carolina is closer. I mean,

193
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: if these oh and two, I realized it's the Jets

194
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: and the Saints and the Browns that these are going

195
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: to be. But the Panthers, it's not that difficult a division.

196
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: The Panthers gonna beat the Saints a couple of times

197
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 1: like these.

198
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 3: I don't know. Spencer Rattles, it looks like he's got

199
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 3: a little bit of juice to so is Bryce young Man.

200
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: Suddenly, Bryce young and Spencer Rattler looks like a great

201
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: matchup on the weekend.

202
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 3: Hey man, I'll sell the hell out of it. Let's go.

203
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 3: I really more.

204
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: I think it's those three teams are gonna be fighting

205
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: for Garrett Nussmeyer. I can't even say for arch Man anyway.

206
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: They'll be fighting for Garrett Nusmeyer. Now, yeah, but he

207
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: didn't score. Remember Brian Kelly had to fight with that reporter.

208
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: What's the problem we won the game?

209
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 3: Get out of here, jerk? And then he kind of

210
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 3: had to backtrack it and apologize. Must have been related

211
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 3: to a booster or something. But I mean the Dolphins

212
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 3: coming game for this one Bills, and again they could

213
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: still pull away. I mean their explosive offense. We've seen

214
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 3: some big play potential Kincaid streaking out of the backfield

215
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 3: where the Bills. It's interesting is watching to see beyond Kincaid,

216
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 3: who you trust in your passing game, Right, Khalil Shakir,

217
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 3: Kean Coleman. Right, he had the deflective ball in week one,

218
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 3: But on a weekly basis, are you banking on him

219
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 3: for big plays? No, it's it's Josh Allen's creativity and

220
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 3: that run game with with Cook with maybe a little

221
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 3: bit of Davis creeping back in as the game goes on.

222
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 3: But for now, we got ourselves a ballgame on a

223
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 3: Thursday night. Let's celebrate that. Twenty one to fourteen Bills

224
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 3: with the lead. Dolphins have the football near midfield about

225
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 3: five and a half to go in the third quarter,

226
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 3: and so far Mike McDaniel is saying to himself, Hey,

227
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 3: we're playing well enough that I'm not going to get

228
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 3: fired after this week. So okay, totally got the vote

229
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 3: of confidence. Yeah, but you know what happens after you

230
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 3: get a vote conf federally. But yeah, I mean that

231
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 3: was the report pregame. It's like they're gonna be a

232
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 3: little more patience.

233
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: Like, wow, that means it really got loud if you

234
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: have to put that in your pregame.

235
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, game part on it on the Amazon

236
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 3: it's like, all right, well, I guess we have to

237
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 3: address the elephant. They're gonna be fired right out the game.

238
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: Okay, don't look for Greer to come down and take

239
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: the headset and his shoes and his pre pants from him.

240
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 3: At the end of the gay It's not gonna happen. Okay,

241
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: you always kind of bum though, Like we were getting

242
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 3: ready to transition into the studios as the Odd Couple

243
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 3: were finishing their show, and it was right coming out

244
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 3: out of halftime, and that's when McDaniel had his quick

245
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 3: little back and forth with whoever was interviewing on the

246
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 3: sideline and he said something where there was just this

247
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 3: pause with the reporter and I'm like, I'm trying to

248
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 3: go ten seconds back. I was like I want to,

249
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 3: and it wouldn't go. I'm like, come on.

250
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: He obviously said something that made it really confusing, made

251
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: no sense.

252
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 3: So we'll effort that as we continue. It's like, I

253
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 3: gotta see what kind of gems he's given us as

254
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 3: they battle here or in the third quarter.

255
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: Oh you want gems, I'm gonna give you gems right here,

256
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 1: Mike Carmen for a couple.

257
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 3: You know me, I love diamonds.

258
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: So I am with people right now, people who love

259
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: hot ta. I mean, I love a hot take with

260
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: people who just they're living on hot take.

261
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 3: All I do is hot all I do is hot.

262
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: People are fighting to get to their keyboards and put

263
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: videos up, and they want their TV shows on the

264
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: air right now so they can be the first ones

265
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: to say, you see you look at all the evidence.

266
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: The Indiana Fever are better without Caitland p than they

267
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: are with her. You see what happens. The Fever beat

268
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Dream tonight, a big playoff upset. They win

269
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: that first round series two games to one. Eighty seven

270
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: to eighty five. Is the final. Just I can't wait

271
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,719
Speaker 1: because you know it's gonna happen, absolutely, And I'll even

272
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: tell you this. You're gonna get And this is what's

273
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: gonna be embarrassing, is you're gonna get former WNBA players

274
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: and analysts who are gonna say, yeah, see, you look

275
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: at the way this team plays without Caitland Clark and

276
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: it's much much better. You see the way things go

277
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: in the back court. And look, we knew I told

278
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: you the beginning of the season. By the end of

279
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: the regular season, the Fever gonna be looked at as

280
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: the best team in the WNBA. That's the team to beat.

281
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: Now Caitlin Clark got hurt, they lost Sophie Cunningham they've

282
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: had to move things around. But remember they made some

283
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: moves to bring in some players in the offseason because

284
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: they were augmenting and getting ready for a championship run.

285
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: Because Caitland Clark's a top five player in the league,

286
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: she's the biggest star of the league. Yes, they found

287
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: a way to win the first round of the playoffs

288
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: without her, and it's an awesome accomplishment. But man, I'll

289
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: tell you, I really, I really can't wait. I'm wondering

290
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: who the first ones are gonna be to say, you

291
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: can't argue you can't look at what they did last

292
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 1: year with her, look at that, and they're gonna cherry

293
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 1: pick an argument to just say, really, buddy, really.

294
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have Shae and tysher clip this off. As

295
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 3: soon as we're done, we're gonna be first. Are you

296
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 3: kidding me? Eighty seven eighty five, A disjointed final possession

297
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 3: ball squirts all the way back out to the three

298
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 3: point range Odyssey Simms, what a name that is? Yeah,

299
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 3: she finds Aleah Boston, who's suddenly wide open under the

300
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 3: basket as the defense forgets hey, you know what if

301
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 3: you let her go short range?

302
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: She's gonna put the ball in and well, DJ, clearly,

303
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: if you're looking for a long playoff run, definitely to

304
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 1: see Simms is the one to guide you through that

305
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: long journey. That's a fantastic name though, right you're setting

306
00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: it up as hey, you know what, you got a

307
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: long journey, Good luck to you, kid, go get it.

308
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 3: But she has the assist to Boston to put them

309
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 3: up one. Eventually you get the fall, she hits the

310
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 3: final free throw. You win by two, five players in

311
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 3: double digits. You had assists on three quarters of their baskets,

312
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 3: four assists per turnover.

313
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, the ball moved. They're a better team without Katelyn Clark.

314
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 5: There it is, because that's how it works. Wait, let

315
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 5: me pull out that bucket of Circaz. When you take

316
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 5: great players away, that's how it works.

317
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: And the thing is because nobody would say would say

318
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: that for any other player, Like Okay, So let's just

319
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: say you go into next season and.

320
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 3: The Lakers go on to run early.

321
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: Right, say Lebron is out for some reason, he wants

322
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: to make videos, he wants to get traded, whatever it is.

323
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: And Lebron is out for some reason, and with Luca

324
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: leading the way, all of a sudden, Hey, the Lakers

325
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: at the top of the West. No one's gonna say, well,

326
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: you know, they're better off without Lebron. I mean, no

327
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: one's gonna say that if the Milwaukee Bucks go on

328
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: a run in the beginning of next Okay, here's gotta

329
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: be something more realistic, if the Knicks go on a

330
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: run in the beginning of the season next year without

331
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson, because who knows, they're looking into how come

332
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: you took all this less money? And Pablo Tory has

333
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: him on a on a standsday, Did you order the

334
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: Code red?

335
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 3: Did you order a Code Red?

336
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeh?

337
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 3: But it seems like every time someone's got an argument,

338
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 3: he's got more paperwork that's sitting there. Hey, here's another

339
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 3: thirty million. You want to keep doing this.

340
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: No one is gonna say the Knicks are better off

341
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: without Jalen Brunson. No one's gonna say the Bucks are

342
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: better off without Gianness, right, no one's gonna say, uh,

343
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: we're looking at the Warriors are better off without Steph.

344
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 3: But no one is saying this stuff.

345
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: But we'll say it for Caitlin Clark just because because

346
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: I like hot takes and I still for some reason,

347
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: I still don't like her as a player.

348
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 3: Why because she I don't know.

349
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: That's still really I guarantee you you're gonna get that

350
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: tonight tomorrow.

351
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 3: I want to plant my fight and there because it

352
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 3: is a Thursday night, she got a full slate of

353
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 3: shows for a Friday morning.

354
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: Remember the old show, The Gong Show. Ohta explain the

355
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: Gong Show? So the Gong Show was a reality show

356
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: basically in the seventies where is X Factor, where people

357
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: would show up and they would do all these different

358
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: individual talents like they had and and you know, some

359
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: might I could I could be a mime, or I

360
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: can sing like whatever it is. And then if you

361
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: did well and you made it to the end, you won.

362
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: But if you were terrible, they grabbed a big gong

363
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: and hit them and hit the hit the gunk and

364
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: you were done. And so there were sometimes where the

365
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: person performing was so bad that the judges would fight

366
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: over the gong, over who got to God there? Right, Yeah,

367
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: that's what it's that they're fighting over the gong right

368
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: now of who's gonna be it. That's to say they're

369
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: better off without Caitlin Clark.

370
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: I would have been that guy. You know what's crazy though,

371
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 3: As you mentioned the gong show and a gong, I

372
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 3: actually did on a gong last week in an auction

373
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: and it ended up going for twenty two thousand pounds. Wow.

374
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 3: It was part of a Doubt and Abbey auction and

375
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 3: it was estimated to go for maybe like a thousand,

376
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 3: so I tried to lowball it and then all of

377
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 3: a sudden, like wait, it went for what well you know,

378
00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 3: I mean that would have been fun in the corner

379
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 3: of the studio because we really had our own gong

380
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 3: for some of these efforts we get to watch on

381
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 3: a nightly BASEDDJ.

382
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: Then Mike Harmon could definitely bang a gong and get

383
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: it on during the show.

384
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 3: Damn right, j You've got t Rex arms. So yeah,

385
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:15,359

00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football. This game is moving.

418
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 3: Get those fours up, uh. Bills still lead it twenty

419
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: one to fourteen.

420
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: Somehow the Dolphins, who have quit on the season, are

421
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: keeping it closer with the Bills than the Jets did

422
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: on Sunday.

423
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 3: Again, the Jets may be one of the three worst

424
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 3: teams in the NFL. They're fighting for Mike McDaniel.

425
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think that was the pregame speech. Hey guys,

426
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: you know I'm gonna get blown out. Just you know,

427
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: if you ever liked me for five minutes, remember when

428
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: I took over, we were gonna be a fast team,

429
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 1: and we were really good for a while.

430
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 3: Just give me a little bit here, man.

431
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 1: We don't have to win tonight, but just don't lose

432
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: by a thousand so I could keep my job another week,

433
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: all right, as we can do that, thank you.

434
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 3: What do we always say, doesn't have to be aesthetically pleasing,

435
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 3: just needs to be close late.

436
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: So we'll have more on this game coming up in

437
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: a bit. Again, Just getting ready to start the fourth quarter,

438
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: Bills lead by a touchdown. But it's time now for

439
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: the play of the day and that gets you into

440
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: our big topic here where we are waving goodbye to

441
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: one of the all time history of Major League Baseball greats.

442
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: For over forty years, tire Rack's been open. Customers find

443
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: the right time for how, what and where they drive.

444
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: Shipped fast and free backed by free Road, has protection

445
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 1: with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tirerack dot

446
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 1: Com is the way tire buying should be and so

447
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: and we could have made it a James Cook touchdown.

448
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: He could have made it a Dalton and k touchdown.

449
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: But since Clayton Kershaw has announced he is calling it

450
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: quits at the end of this season, his eighteenth in

451
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, well there is only one play of

452
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: the day.

453
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 7: One two pitch strike threecords take cut of with a

454
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 7: sire strikeout number three thousand for Clayton Kershaw, his history

455
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 7: at Dodgers Stadium.

456
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: Dodgers TV on the call that just a few weeks

457
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 1: ago I pitched. It's still the more you look at it, like, wow,

458
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 1: that really wasn't a strike, but hey, okay it was

459
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: the White Sox.

460
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 3: What does it matter? Nny Caepra of the White Know

461
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 3: it was really odd. The timing of this announcement will

462
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 3: get deep into what he had to say and the

463
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 3: ramification in his place baseball history is like yesterday, we

464
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 3: were going through a lot of Dodger stuff. Right, We're

465
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 3: watching that game unfold the Blake Snells situation. Listen to

466
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 3: the podcast. We had the instant react that was just

467
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 3: it was audio gold. But I was actually when I

468
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 3: got home and flipped on a TV show and I

469
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 3: was actually looking at Kershaw memorabilia, looking for the three

470
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 3: thousand strikeout ticket stumps because there's not many of them right.

471
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 3: Mostly it's digital now and different things like that. And

472
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 3: then today we get this, Hey, there's an announcement brewing,

473
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,479
Speaker 3: and like the hell Man, that is just like weird

474
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 3: foreshadowing of things to come. Now, two things to get

475
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:36,719
Speaker 3: into here for a second.

476
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,919
Speaker 1: The first one is that I'm just waiting because I

477
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: don't know that people realize. Okay, tomorrow is the last

478
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: Kershaw start at Dodger Stadium. Now, likely he's gonna have

479
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: at least one more one more time through the rotation,

480
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: but it won't be at Dodger stadium, Willie pitching the playoffs.

481
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: Potentially after game two of the first round of the playoffs,

482
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: everything is up in the you don't know what bullpen

483
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: is being used. You don't know where it's going. Kershaw

484
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: is having a good enough season, but is he someone's

485
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: gonna start game one?

486
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 3: I think after last night we saw Blake Snell as

487
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 3: your game once you.

488
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: Got him, and and then who knows, right, because then

489
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: you don't know what kind of bullpen you're using. So

490
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 1: potentially he's going to pitch in the playoffs, right, So

491
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: you're not it's not the end of Kershaw. But here's

492
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: the last start for Kershaw at Dodger Stadium. It's a

493
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: really big deal.

494
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 3: Joe Davis talking bobbing, Yeah, yeah, I ask you this,

495
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 3: uh what what day?

496
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you three questions, Mike Carmen, just like

497
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: last night, se if you get a hundred on.

498
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 3: The Okay, what day is tomorrow?

499
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: The day that Clayton Kershaw is making his final start

500
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 1: at Dodgers stage.

501
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 3: Tomorrow is Friday, very good also known as Hawaiian should

502
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: so where Hawaiian shirt? Of course?

503
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 7: Yeah?

504
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: You won?

505
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 3: Okay number two? Yep?

506
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: Where are baseball games broadcast on Friday night Apple TV.

507
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 3: Very good, Mike Harmon.

508
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 2: Now.

509
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: Third, quite most important question? Can I have my the

510
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: Can you have my password? Is that what you're gonna

511
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: ask me? Most important question? Is it easy for fans

512
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: to see games.

513
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 3: On Apple TV on Friday night if you cough up

514
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 3: a buck?

515
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's pretty simple if you're willing to spend

516
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: a dollar.

517
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 3: Here's the thing. Is it worth the ten bucks or

518
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 3: whatever it would be? For a month?

519
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: Plus all the wonderful content including Severance and Ted Lasso

520
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 1: on so many other great things. The Morning Show which

521
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: premiered today. All Right, I'm gonna okay, I did that.

522
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 1: That's a great prehamble. But I answered, is it easy?

523
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: Does does everybody have access to seeing Clayton?

524
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 3: Categorically? Three questions? You go to the head of the class.

525
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 3: That's one hundred.

526
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,880
Speaker 1: I would say this tomorrow, across the city of Los Angeles,

527
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people randomly showing up at.

528
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 3: Their local group hub. Tomorrow. You have the game.

529
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 1: Tomorrow's game Tomorrow is gonna be I don't know what

530
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 1: time it's gonna be, but sometime nearly afternoon's gonna be

531
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: that big Wait, what moment from Dodger.

532
00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 7: What.

533
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 3: No, it's like when we have random we're talking about

534
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 3: game overseas right for the NFL, it's like, oh, they're

535
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 3: doing those damn things again, like I missed one, you

536
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 3: know that kind of thing. Wait you mean I can't wait? What?

537
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 2: So how we do?

538
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 3: What? Wait?

539
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 2: What?

540
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 3: What do you talk? What do you mean? We apple? Wait? What? What?

541
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: Like?

542
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 3: That's what That's what it's gonna be. We've had that

543
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 3: a lot on Fridays over the course of this season,

544
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 3: that reminder of oh wait, because we've had a couple

545
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 3: of instances where it looked like we were gonna have

546
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 3: those milestone moments, whether it was Judge or or a

547
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 3: tiny day, et cetera, where where folks got a little angsty.

548
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: But for this one, yeah, it's next level stuff for

549
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 3: a guy in eighteen years he debuted a month before

550
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 3: my second daughter was born.

551
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: I mean, and this is and look, I want to

552
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: say that we're gonna see him one more time in

553
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 1: the regular season, but maybe not because I said that,

554
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,479
Speaker 1: But yeah, his turn in the rotation should wait much

555
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: more time. But maybe they say, Okay, he's gonna be

556
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: part of our rotation or the plan is to piggyback

557
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: him with someone else's piggyback is gonna be a big

558
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: thing this playoffs. I'll tell you that right away. Uh,

559
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: starting pitchers piggybacking is gonna be a big thing instead

560
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: of bullpen games. But I'll tell you this, like maybe

561
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: it is his last start, so now it's not this

562
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 1: is not just this is baseball fans across the country

563
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 1: Kershaw making the last start. He's the best left handed

564
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: pitcher that I have ever seen, the best better than

565
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: Randy Johnson. Bet he's the best left handed pitcher that

566
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: I have ever seen. And it's he's gonna make his

567
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: final start tomorrow night. People across the country are gonna

568
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,679
Speaker 1: go all right, I guess I'll just I'll just follow

569
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: on social media. People will post the strikeouts for what's

570
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: happening with Clayton and ovations, and because you know, it's

571
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: gonna be full of all kinds of fun stuff tomorrow night,

572
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 1: the broadcast the game itself, Dodger fans saying goodbye to

573
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw. I mean, it's it's gonna be that kind

574
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: of night, man.

575
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's huge. I mean we watched the clips

576
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 3: earlier his presser and the statement that he gave and

577
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 3: then he answered a couple of questions, almost lost it

578
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 3: a couple of time, Like I said, I mean, we're

579
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 3: talking eighteen years, you and I, you know, loving the

580
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 3: game of baseball that we do, me being once upon

581
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 3: a time a crafty junk ball er lefty uh before

582
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 3: the shoulder threw it and went into the third deck.

583
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 3: But all of watching a guy with one team, a

584
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 3: full career, the highs and lows, the injuries, the battle back,

585
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 3: like all of that and what he means to this city,

586
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 3: all the more Key and his wife have done. I

587
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 3: like that he kept dropping in the four and a

588
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 3: half kids, referenced the pregnancy, but all of it to say,

589
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 3: like we've watched it's eighteen years man, like that long time,

590
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 3: lifetime of dominance.

591
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: And to your point, the best that I've gotten to

592
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: see fully was Johnson more intimidating, sure, because for a

593
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: while early in his career you had no idea where

594
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: the ball was. Not many lefties thrown ninety eight right,

595
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: that's the whole thing. Left like Kershaw never threw ninety

596
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: eight one hundred like he was. His fastball was in

597
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: the mid nineties. But you know, when you think about this, right,

598
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: when you think about Kershaw's legacy, we'll get to the

599
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 1: playoff part of it, because that's a really big part

600
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 1: of Kershaw is that when I look back and you

601
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: say Clayton Kershaw to me, the first vision that I get,

602
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: or the image of Kershaw that I get, is is

603
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 1: how amazingly good he was at his curve or his

604
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: slider on that first pitch to a batter, throwing it

605
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 1: over the plate in a spot where the hitter can't

606
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 1: get it right. You see the late break on that

607
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 1: and it would break from the way from the side,

608
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: and it would hit the black every single time, and

609
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: the and the umpire was easy boom, strike one. And

610
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: you're a batter and you are saying, what the hell

611
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: am I gonna do when he's throwing that pitch for

612
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,679
Speaker 1: a strike right when he can he can have that

613
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: such a late break on his on his slider, his curve,

614
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: whatever whatever he wanted to throw that he can do that.

615
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just such an unbelievable advantage that he had.

616
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,479
Speaker 1: And then nobody else could do stuff like even if

617
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 1: he wanted to throw it over the heart of the

618
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: plate sometimes just make you think that, hey, I can

619
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: get it. You're still not hitting that curve, right, You're

620
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,160
Speaker 1: still not hitting it. Now you get later in that bat,

621
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: maybe it doesn't break the shark. But throwing that first

622
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: pitch for a strike, I mean, I can't tell you

623
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: how many times I have seen him do that, and

624
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: I just go that that's just such a mental advantage.

625
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: First of all, it's an advantage to go on one on

626
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: the count, obviously, but it's such a mental advantage for

627
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: the pitcher over the batter to know I have control

628
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: of all of my pitches and this is what's gonna happen.

629
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna throw you some lazy fastball on

630
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: the corner for strike one, or if I think you're not swaying,

631
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw a fast player. I'm gonna give you

632
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 1: a curve and give you a slider. I'm gonna give

633
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,199
Speaker 1: you something that is gonna break over the plate, and

634
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're at bad is gonna be defensive?

635
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: Like That's the vision I have of him when I

636
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: think of it, just watching the just watching the hump

637
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: of the ball and the batter and the batter just

638
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: taking it and just shaking his head and going okay,

639
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 1: now it's on one and Kershaw's got me where he wants,

640
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: like that the way he was able to do that.

641
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: So it's so commanding that cut those two pitches so easily,

642
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: especially early in counts, Like you want to know why

643
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: he dominated, That's one of the big reasons why he dominated.

644
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been here about twenty years in Los Angeles,

645
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 3: moved here in two thousand and six. Uh, and so

646
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 3: for me, he is Dodger baseball.

647
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: Right.

648
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 3: Obviously there's Vin Scully, I mean, nothing touches that, but otherwise,

649
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 3: my entire run here has been watching his evolution, his

650
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 3: growth and everything changing around him. Second, that curveball that

651
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 3: you lay out first pitch, and obviously he struggled in

652
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 3: the first inning this year, but still to a ten

653
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 3: and two record at a three five ERA.

654
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: You'll take that any day. Someone was starting to do

655
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: the calculations of how many innings he can just be

656
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: absolutely rocked and watches era finally get to that nice

657
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: round number. So kind of kind of crazy. And the

658
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: third thing is he's throwback slash red ass right yere. Hey,

659
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: if there was something on the field where he wasn't

660
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: getting his seven to ten start. I'd screw with him tomorrow.

661
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: Hey Clayton, we're gonna do something special.

662
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 3: Damn it. No, I'm on the mountain. It's time, that's time.

663
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 3: It's my last start. How dare you? Oh man, I'll

664
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 3: tell you. I mean really, lou Seal comes running out

665
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 3: there to create chaos.

666
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: I mean it just seeing that is just it's it's

667
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: so demoralizing for a hitter when when that's the first

668
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 1: pitch comes like, okay, man, all right, I guess I

669
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: guess gonna be one of those days, one of those

670
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: that bats for me. Here now suddenly I'm trying to

671
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: just I'm defensive and if I if I could hit

672
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: the ball the other way and I can, I could

673
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: poke it through the infield.

674
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 3: It's a huge victory for me. But it's one of

675
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 3: those where where you get sad because again, there aren't

676
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 3: many guys like this, right, and we're seeing shades of

677
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 3: it with Snell yesterday, you know, waving Dave Roberts off

678
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 3: and the Vesia thing and all of that was great, right,

679
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 3: And certainly the folks that have been stands for Blake Snell,

680
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 3: they got their ammunition yesterday, So good for them. But

681
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 3: but all of it to say, like we don't we

682
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 3: don't have guys that battle like Kershawn anymore when we're

683
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 3: talking innings, when we're talking about these years, and lesser

684
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 3: men would have just said, all right, I've been hurt

685
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 3: a bunch, I'm done. I got my title, I got

686
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 3: my accomplishments, whatever. And to watch his emotions as he

687
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 3: goes out here at peace to a degree, but you

688
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 3: can see that there there's still something burning and hoping

689
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 3: for that next month of baseball.

690
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: Exit about a fresca exit swollen down the Jason Smith

691
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: Show with my best friend Mike Harmon time that to

692
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: find out what's trending in the wide world of sports.

693
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: But guy, you can also throw that curve over the

694
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: plate for a strike. It's Martin Weiss.

695
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 4: Yet no chance, no chance, all right, I tell you

696
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 4: I I played a celebrity softball game one time, celebrity

697
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 4: in big time quotations.

698
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 3: Got to be the only guy to strike out four times. Okay, okay,

699
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 3: leaning celebrity game. I was four. They started booing me

700
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 3: because I was a swing and I was trying to draw.

701
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 3: I was trying to get on base.

702
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 4: But you know they weren't having it so twenty one

703
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 4: twenty one right now. The Dolphins had just forced a

704
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 4: Buffalo punt and then in Dolphin fashion, ran into the punter,

705
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 4: giving Buffalo a first down. But this has been a

706
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 4: back and forth game thus far. Josh Allen with two

707
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 4: touchdown passes, James Cook with one touchdown run, Dalton Kcate

708
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 4: and excuse me, Dalton Kincate and Jackson Hawes the recipients

709
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 4: of those touchdowns.

710
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 3: For Buffalo, and two a talking about Low with two touchdown.

711
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 4: Passes himself, won to Tyreek Hill, one to Jalen Waddle,

712
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 4: and Ali Gordon started the scoring in the first quarter again,

713
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 4: just under ten minutes left in the game. As James

714
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 4: Cook stumbles forward on second down, it'll be third down

715
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 4: for Buffalo. The Dodgers in action right now with scoreless

716
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 4: with one on in the top of the second inning.

717
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 4: Dodgers also announced today that three time Saw Young Award

718
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 4: winner Clayton Kershall will retire at the end of this year,

719
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,719
Speaker 4: his final home start coming a Friday against the Giants,

720
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 4: who are in the obviously in that wildcard race. Seattle

721
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 4: Mariners one at Kansas City two to nothing ties Houston

722
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 4: now first place in the alst. The Guardians won their

723
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 4: seventh consecutive game three to one victory at Detroit swept

724
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 4: the Tigers in this series. They're now three and a

725
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 4: half back from Detroit. And Yankees beat the Oriel seventh

726
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 4: to nothing. Pete Alonzo homer for a fourth straight game

727
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 4: as the Newark Metio had a six to one win

728
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:03,480

Speaker 4: on Thursday, as with a toe injury. Kansas City wide

732
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 4: receiver Xavior Worthy was limited in practice. He's working back

733
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 4: from that week one dislocated shoulder he suffers from friendly fire.

734
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 4: Travis Kelsey tackled him. Rookie wide receiver Jalen Royal was

735
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 4: full go. He expects to make his NFL debut on Sunday.

736

771

00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: the tush push, congratulations haters. The NFL has instructed officials

775
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 1: to officiate the heck out of the tush push from

776
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,439
Speaker 1: here on out. Upset that a penalty at least one

777
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: penalty was missed last week the off side on the Eagles.

778
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,800
Speaker 1: We saw it after the times they ran it against

779
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and now it's become one of those firestorms again.

780
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 3: Oh, the tush push is ridiculous. We can't have it.

781
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 3: But do you get the help from the upstairs in

782
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 3: the booths all the time.

783
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: The NFL has instructed officials to call the controversial play

784
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 1: tight going forward, So we're going to see a tight

785
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: call on this between the Eagles and the Rams. Look,

786
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: we talked about this yesterday. In the last couple of

787
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: days when it's come up, the world is going towards

788
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: the banning of this play, right, That's just the way

789
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 1: the NFL is going enjoy it the rest of this

790
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: season because it's gonna get banned after this. When it

791
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 1: came out that the new angle of this following last

792
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,879
Speaker 1: week was it's a really hard play to officiate. This

793
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: is what gets the NFL teams who are on the

794
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: side of the toushbush to go, oh, well, if they

795
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 1: can really, if they can skirt the rules and they

796
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: can't have it officiated as well as it should be, well,

797
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: then guess what. No, I don't want it because I

798
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 1: don't want them to be able to take advantage of

799
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 1: the rules. If I can't take advantage of the rules,

800
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 1: they do it better than we do. Yeah, we could

801
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,359
Speaker 1: do the play, but we don't do it as well

802
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 1: as them. Hey, okay, it's a competitive advantage, but they

803
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 1: know how to do something well. But the minute it

804
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 1: came out that it's a tough play to officiate. This

805
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: is gonna get banned, and the NFL isn't gonna want

806
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: another offseason of here's a potentially illegal play, taking all

807
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 1: the headlines that it does. So enjoy It's gonna go

808
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,919
Speaker 1: this season, Eagles, use the hell out of it. Man,

809
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: use as many plays as you want, use it on

810
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: first and ten, Use as many play as you want

811
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,439
Speaker 1: to going forward, because after this year, you're not gonna

812
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 1: get the votes to keep it.

813
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 3: It will come up again. It will be band. He

814
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 3: won't have any more toush push in the NF. But

815
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 3: go on a limb and say McVeigh and company also

816
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 3: sent tape of every instance they could find over the

817
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 3: last couple of years where you could make the uh

818
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 3: judgment of the offensive line being off to the races uh.

819
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 3: And you start getting a preponderance of evidence, not just

820
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 3: the ISO shots from last week. You know they've already

821
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 3: run that play eight times through the first two weeks

822
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 3: of the season. You realize that Jalen Hurts has only

823
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 3: thrown the ball more than ten air yards three times

824
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,839
Speaker 3: through the first two weeks of the season. I don't

825
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 3: know so little random stats you want.

826
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 1: Them, I really want them to throw the ball out

827
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: of that formation. When you think they could figure that out,

828
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna, we're gonna everybody's diving down. When you bring

829
00:37:49,719 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: Tibo back, he just does the jump pass bagain. Look,

830
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 1: certain times it's you just see the way that a

831
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 1: belief goes on a topic. And in sports, you see

832
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 1: whether it's rules or or or or or games or

833
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: teams and how they're they're moving towards phasing players out,

834
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 1: and you say, Okay, this is just the way it's going,

835
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: and you can't stop it. You can't stop momentum when

836
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: it's going that way. And there's so much momentum against

837
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: it now that I can't see it making it one

838
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: more even the biggest holdouts, because we told you this

839
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,840
Speaker 1: was the biggest thing. If the Eagles have a competitive

840
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: advantage of officiating wise, that's going to be it. That

841
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: spells doom for this. And I don't even think it's

842
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: going to be particularly close next year. No, but that's

843
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: the thing. Right, it flips from four teams voting for it,

844
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 1: and and you know, twenty eight voting against.

845
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 3: Right, it sucks. You're just good at it. And I

846
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 3: know they used some of the species logic of hey,

847
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 3: look how fast Tyreek Hill is or whatever else. You

848
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 3: can't legislate against that. No, in this case, if you

849
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 3: can go for the all right eight thus far, if

850
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 3: you can tell me that I'm virtually all of those plays,

851
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 3: somebody's off to the races and there should have been

852
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 3: a false start called. Plus the the Blandino audio and

853
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 3: the preponderance of evidence and a number of ex officials

854
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 3: that are coming in and going, yeah, it kind of

855
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 3: that's where we're at. Then yeah, it becomes an easy band.

856
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 3: So utilize it as much as you can. Again, eight

857
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 3: times already in two weeks, it's been the most highly

858
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 3: effective play, certainly in ninety seven percent success rate. We

859
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 3: know this. But now you're you're just in a space

860
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 3: where you're gonna get those last couple of votes. So

861
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 3: they're gonna flip pretty easily. It's just gonna happen.

862
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 1: So enjoy it, and haters, congratulations, you hate the play.

863
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: This is the last season you have to see it.

864
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresco exit swollen dome. Coming up next,

865
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: the Dolphins driving for the tying score against the Bills

866
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 1: and to a complete a pass to the guys in

867
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: the wrong Jersey, oh Bills take over with three minutes left,

868
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: up by a touchdown. More on this and Shawn next,

869
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: Fox
