Then tomorrow somebody knew we'll 65 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 5: be working there, it'll be five ninety nine. 66 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 1: Trust me, And then three the next day.

I lived in Times Square. 69 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: I know that sounds crazy, but for a year and 70 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: a half of my life my wife and I lived 71 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: in Times Square because I was doing radio and television 72 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: in mid tall Manhattan, and it only made sense to 73 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: live where I was working because I was going back 74 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: and forth a lot to the studio. I'd go to 75 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: the deli across the street and get like a bacon, 76 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 1: egg and cheese on a bagel, and they made a 77 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: different price every time. And I finally said to the 78 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: guy I live across the street, I'm local, and he's like, oh, okay, 79 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: And I had a better price from that point on 80 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: because they say they you know, they see tourists all 81 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: day and they're like, bacon, egg and cheese, twelve bucks. 82 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: That'll be uh ninety four dollars exactly, and then you 83 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: know they'd be like, eh, five bucks. I want the 84 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: local discount. So here's where I have a dumb question, 85 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: and then we'll get to all my deep thoughts today. 86 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: Thanks for hanging Cavino's swimming in a sonote somewhere and 87 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: based on our Mets Yankees bet half his vacation was 88 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: on me. So enjoy Cavino, Go get a massage. I 89 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: go to get my little can of coffee, and I 90 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: see they have scratchers now I'm not a scratch off 91 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: lottery guy. My grandfather was, I think every World War two. 92 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: The old guy from the old the timey times was 93 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: I've never bought a scratcher maybe in twenty years. But 94 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: they had a ten dollars ticket and it was said 95 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: million dollars and they were forty nine ers. It was 96 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: like a big forty nine ers logo. And I said, 97 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: you know what, let me get one of those, boy, 98 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: And the guy goes, ooh for the lottery it's cash only. Now, 99 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: I'm honestly it's on my mind that that one ticket 100 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: that I couldn't buy, that I was going to buy 101 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 1: is a big winner. 102 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 3: It's your destiny, my destiny. 103 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: I almost want to be like, please, can you put 104 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: that one? I almost want to call him during the break. 105 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 5: And they put it aside, go to the ATM, pay 106 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 5: the five dollars ATM fee just to get the cash 107 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 5: out to buy that just scratch off a millionaire. 108 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: Oh you know what they could be? You never know, 109 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,239 Speaker 1: You never know. All right, well, hey, welcome to Coveno 110 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: and Rich. Those are the dumb things I think of, 111 00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: and there's plenty more today. We're gonna have a lot 112 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: of fun. But as we watched Wildcard Baseball, congrats to 113 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: the Tigers. Schooble did what Schoobl's supposed to do. Right, 114 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: You're you're cy young, your ace. Look at that. And 115 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: the ninth they caught the Guardians in a little pickle 116 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: between vision and home. It was, you know, it's playoff baseball. 117 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: Two to one, Schooball going seven and two thirds, which 118 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: is again what an ace should do. So congrats the 119 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: detroit they're up one to oh maybe they get back 120 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: on track in the postseason. Now I saw that the 121 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: Cubbies beating the Padres two to one, and you'll have 122 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: Wildcard Baseball all day. Sort of bumm because part of 123 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: me assume that this week, Danny, you and I we'd 124 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: be battling Mets Dodgers. But that didn't happen because the 125 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: Mets had every opportunity on planet Earth to back into 126 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: the playoffs. The Reds were not some powerhouse team. When 127 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: your team fails and you know, neglects to make the postseason, 128 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: if some other team went eighteen and two over their 129 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: final twenty and it's like, what are you gonna do? 130 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 1: They were just that good. They were inspired, like like 131 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Guardians. They just got so good at the 132 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: end of the year. Can't You can't help yourself but say, 133 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: and they deserved it. The Reds did nothing to deserve this. 134 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: It's almost like the consolation prize for the Mets sucking 135 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: so bad over their last eighty games. The Reds were 136 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: forty and forty. They're a five hundred team. In fact, 137 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,799 Speaker 1: Danny g you sent me a meme yesterday that aggravated 138 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: me even more. Do you want to read some of 139 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: these fun facts about this Cincinnati Reds team that if 140 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: your Dodgers don't sweep immediately, you should be embarrassed. 141 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, let me pull that up here. 142 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: I think it was like, not one pitcher with fifteen 143 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: or more wins, Not one batter batted two seventy or higher. 144 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, no qualifying batter hit two seventy or above. No 145 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 4: batter hit twenty five homers. No pitcher won fifteen games. 146 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 4: No pitcher on the Reds notch two hundred strikeouts. 147 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: So it's even more embarrassing when you look at what 148 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: Steve Cohen tried to put together with David Stearns in 149 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: New York and then Mets fell short. I will not 150 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: make this all about my Mets, I promise you. But 151 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: it's just the latest example of a team that spends 152 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: a lot of money and it doesn't work out the 153 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: way the fan base and ownership wanted. Here's the question. 154 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: At the trade deadline, we remember what was the big 155 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: thing up. Mets and Padres won the trade deadline. Mets 156 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: got Hellsley, they got some relievers, they got Mullins in 157 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,559 Speaker 1: center field, and at that time I was like Mets 158 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: made some improvements. Those guys all ended up sucking. A 159 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: major case of the sucking queens is that David Stearn's fault. 160 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: He made the moves Mendoza. Do you blame the manager? 161 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: Is that who falls on the sword. I have met 162 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: fan friends that say things like, well know you got 163 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: to do no, gotta blow the whole thing up. Everyone's 164 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: gotta go. So I want to start there today and 165 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: no way we will get to Tyreek Kale. I have 166 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: thoughts on him, and I think you look pretty happy 167 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: for god I got injured. I think he's happy that 168 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: his days in Miami are done. He'll start next year 169 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: and I guarantee it's not there. There's updates with him. 170 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: Drew Rosenhaus has given some updates on Tyreek Hill. But 171 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: when your team stink stanny if the Lakers, you know, 172 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: are a low seed in the playoffs, early exit, and 173 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: of course a lot of people in LA will say 174 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: things like you got a new coach, revamp, knew everything. 175 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, this has happened in recent years. 176 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: Actually, do you subscribe to this or do you say no, no, no, 177 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: you don't need to rebuild or blow the whole thing up, 178 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: You just need to revamp. 179 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 3: Depends on the leadership of the team. 180 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 4: If it seems like it's rotten to the core, then 181 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 4: that's when, you know, fans with higher IQs would be like, well, 182 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 4: something's got to change from the top down. But if 183 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 4: you have all the right pieces in place and there 184 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 4: was just a lot of underperformance going on, then it's 185 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 4: a different story. 186 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: I mean, call me naive. I really feel like sometimes 187 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: you just have bad luck. I know, you say bad 188 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: luck for three four months since June when the Mets 189 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: stunk like third worst team in baseball. That's a long 190 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: period of stank stink. That's like the Great Stink of 191 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: eighteen fifty eight, which we've talked about before. But does 192 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: there come a point where you say, hey, man, the 193 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: talents there, run it back. It's just everything went wrong. 194 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: They had no comeback victories. Only team in baseball this 195 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: year to not have a ninth inning comeback. That's insane. 196 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do? You just signed Wan Soto. 197 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,599 Speaker 1: Lindor is clearly the fan favorite. Everyone's gonna want you 198 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: to resign Pete Alonzo and give him the money that 199 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: he clearly has now earned. Nimo's signed for like a decade. 200 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: What do you do? Do you not run it back 201 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: with a core of a team. Do you really start saying, well, 202 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: they didn't make the postseason, they only won eighty three games, 203 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: let's blow it all up. 204 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 5: It's it's seriously is situation by situation? Because of what 205 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 5: you just laid out, you would think, I think that 206 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 5: the change that you could make would be at the 207 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 5: managerial spot. 208 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: And then so what they did. They immediately said, oh, 209 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: Carlos Mendoza will be back. So what would have been 210 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: the sacrificial lamb so to speak for the fan base? Right, like, well, 211 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: all right, they're doing something. You think of all these 212 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: bone heads and queens that I root with, right, yeah, 213 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: Mendoza's gone and Sterns gets a little slap on the wrist, like, yeah, 214 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: you're warning, warning Sterns. We know you rebuilt Milwaukee, but hey, hey, 215 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: none of that happened. So you're especially with Roco Belldell Madelli, 216 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: Bochie Ron Washington, aren't a lot of you know, there's 217 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: manager options. Plus guys were not even thinking about to 218 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: immediately say Mendoza's coming back. 219 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's interesting you mentioned the Brewers, and as a 220 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 5: Brewers fan, not nearly as much of a Mets fan 221 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 5: as you are. But I go back to two thousand 222 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 5: and eight when this team was trying to end their 223 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 5: playoff drought from nineteen eighty two and then everything going 224 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 5: for them and all of a sudden they hit this slide. 225 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 5: And Ned Yost had a lot more equity within that 226 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 5: organization than Carlos Mendoza does with the Mets. But the 227 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 5: Brewers are trying to end a twenty six year postseason drought. 228 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: You're thinking about your baseball go but robbin Yelt's name 229 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: any long, Yes, at that time. 230 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 5: You know, and you're thinking at that point, like, we 231 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 5: can't miss this opportunity. The change that we need to 232 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 5: make because we're sliding. Is they were competing with the 233 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 5: Mets that year for the wild card. When you're looking 234 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 5: at that physition, they made the decision to fire Yost 235 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 5: because if they didn't make the playoffs, he wasn't going 236 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 5: to be back the next year and you needed to 237 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 5: salvage something. So Dale Swam ended up taking over and 238 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 5: they saved the season. They ended up making the postseason 239 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 5: and ending the drought, and everyone was happy. The outcome 240 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 5: was though, if you don't make the playoffs, Yost has 241 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 5: gone anyway, so let's do it now. I'm surprised it 242 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 5: didn't happen with the Mets because of the slide that 243 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 5: they were at, and then it didn't happen, then like 244 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 5: to make the move. Move to say we need to 245 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 5: make a change is probably the reason why they are 246 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 5: keeping him for next year, which doesn't make a lot 247 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 5: of sense. 248 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: I assume he's very popular with the players, but then again, 249 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: but then again, like maybe that's not necessarily always the 250 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: best thing, right. 251 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I get like the like the Marlins lined 252 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 5: up the weekend to beat you guys. Oh yeah, like 253 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 5: you know, like they set up their pitching staff the 254 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 5: way it is. But there is something that I think 255 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 5: is so poetic and not in a good way for 256 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 5: you for the Mets to not score any runs on 257 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 5: the final day of the season, and so at that 258 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 5: point something has to be done. And so that's why 259 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 5: I'm not saying you can't blow it up with everything 260 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 5: that you've got committed, but you had to at least 261 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 5: make a change to signify this is why it happened. 262 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 5: This is what we've identified. And maybe that perception may 263 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 5: not be reality, but it feels like you're at least 264 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 5: addressing the problem at a low a low cost of 265 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 5: firing a manager, which happens a lot in Major League Baseball. 266 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: It's it's a low cost, you know move and a 267 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: fan reactive move to get rid of a manager. It 268 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 1: might not be you know, always right, Manards is not playing, 269 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: the GM's not playing. When when like Danny g when 270 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: Stearns goes out during the trade deadline and you know, 271 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: acquires bullpen help and Mullins in center field at that time, 272 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: you even agree that they were like man METSA made 273 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: some good moves. 274 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 4: I saw headlines that said the Padres and the Mets 275 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 4: were the trade deadline winners. 276 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: So if he made the moves that made sense on paper, 277 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: could you then blame the GM or is that like, 278 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: because now you're saying, like, well, the GM's not responsible, 279 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,479 Speaker 1: but we're bringing back the manager. He's not responsible. Who's responsible? 280 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 3: Then? 281 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: And again, don't make it about my Mets. If you 282 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: don't want to, just think of your own team. If 283 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: your team is not doing well, do you say who's 284 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: the core players? These guys are under contract and it 285 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: know what, it makes me think of annoying fan pet Peeves, 286 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: which is where I sort of want to go with 287 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: this because there's so many people that love to say, 288 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: get rid of this guy, get rid of that guy, 289 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: fire this guy, do this, And the answer is never 290 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: simply that contracts, no trade causes, all these things are there, 291 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: and get rid of Nimmo. Yeah he's locked up until 292 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: twenty thirty something. Are you gonna trump find a trade 293 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: partner and then approve it through him? And then who 294 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: who's playing outfield for you? What do you the guy 295 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: that you thought was gonna be captain for the Mets? 296 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: Lin d'Or fan favorite. Every kid's got a number twelve shirt, 297 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna say goodbye Francisco. Let me find another elite shortstop. 298 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: The Mets have so much talent it's disgusting. Offensively how 299 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: they couldn't get the job done. Is it safe to 300 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: say sometimes you just quote run it back and hope 301 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: you have better luck. 302 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say this. I think this year what 303 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 5: should have been the Mets last year and last year 304 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 5: should have been the Mets this year. Yeah, So if 305 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 5: you want to go, I'll go with ball don't lie theory. 306 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 5: So the Mets shouldn't have made it to the NLCS 307 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 5: last year. I mean, they probably shouldn't have beaten the 308 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 5: Brewers in having the Roics that they did. That was 309 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 5: also a year last year that I thought that the 310 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 5: we thought as a collective group that give David Sterns 311 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 5: a year they weren't going to be spending a lot 312 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 5: of money, and it was going to be leading up 313 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 5: to twenty twenty five. I would take as the ball 314 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 5: don't lie theory that in that case, if that's what 315 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 5: the Mets are going to do, I just don't think. 316 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 5: The reason why I thought earlier you make the change 317 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 5: at the managerial spot is because I don't know how 318 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 5: much equity he built up last year. But if you 319 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 5: want to look at it from a twenty thousand feet view, 320 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 5: I think that that way of last year should have 321 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 5: been this year, then this year should have been last year. 322 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 5: It's probably the way you rationalize it if you're Steve Cohen. 323 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: I just can't wrap my head around it. As a fan. 324 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: I feel like today when I watched Danny g and 325 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: Bow and Bersch and everyone here with their Dodger shirts on, 326 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: and I know Covino's probably sitting, like I said, in 327 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: a lounge chair with his Yankees, you know, swimsuit on 328 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: his pinstripe little five inch speedo. 329 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 5: But it hasn't everything like like I know, like the 330 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 5: pet Alnzo situation hasn't worked out. But this is what happens. 331 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 5: Like you got your GM that you've wanted for years 332 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 5: and years and years, right, You've now signed Juan Soto 333 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 5: in a. 334 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: This is supposed to be it, and then you know 335 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: you didn't do. 336 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 3: Though it's just one year. 337 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 5: Like you have all these things that are thought to 338 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 5: be long term decisions, and so I guess that would 339 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 5: be the reason to not overreact or to tell your 340 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 5: buddies to to not blow it up. These are guys 341 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 5: that were brought in because over the long haul, you 342 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 5: feel that you will have more success than you than 343 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 5: you wouldn't. 344 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you you get sodo, Like you said, 345 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: maybe just last year should have been this year. This 346 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: year should have been last year. But if you guys 347 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: have any other annoying fan, pet Peeves, I would love 348 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: to hear him because one of my one of mine 349 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: that always bothers me, Danny. I know. I see with 350 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts and your Dodgers, people have to be like 351 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: fire and it's like, all right, fire blank and tell 352 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: me who then. 353 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, And in a lot of cases nowadays with analytics 354 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 4: in the front office, is holding so much power over 355 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 4: a manager. Dave Roberts a lot of people think is 356 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 4: just a pawn for Friedman, So really he has job security. 357 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: It's really interesting you would say that because I read 358 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: an article today in the New York Post. Sorry to 359 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: be so Mets heavy, but it had to do with well, 360 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: maybe Mendoz is safe Danny and Dan Byer because he's 361 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: well liked and he was really just putting the lineup 362 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: out there that David Stearns in the front office was 363 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: telling him to put out there. Sure, it's like you know, 364 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: falling the sword for what our decisions? 365 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 5: Do you give him credit for last year? Do you 366 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 5: give Mendoza credit for last year's run. 367 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: They did last year by saying when the Mets started 368 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: out so bad and he was you know, he kept 369 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: that cool demeanor. He got credit last year for that. 370 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,199 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just think it's very interesting to 371 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: see New York fans react when they spend so much money. 372 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: When you look at payrolls, the teams that spend money, 373 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: they're all in there, except for the Mets, Yankees, Dodgers, Phillies, 374 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: all the you know, they're all there. 375 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 5: Look, I look at the Seahawks, and the Pete Carroll 376 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 5: era in Seattle is one that will be remembered fondly 377 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 5: in later years and still to this day because of 378 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 5: the Super Bowl and the success in the places that 379 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 5: they reached that they never did. 380 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 3: But you can't tell me that the. 381 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 5: Past five to eight years of the Pete Carroll era 382 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 5: in Seattle, while it was winning football most of the time, 383 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 5: winning record, that it was inspiring football, things got old. 384 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 5: Things got like stale in a way. And that's holding 385 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 5: on to holding on to a coach that brought your 386 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 5: team to the greatest of heights. There probably wasn't a 387 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 5: reason to fire Pete Carroll when they did or to 388 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 5: move on from Pete Carroll, but you understood the temperature 389 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 5: of your organization at that time, and ownership did make 390 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 5: the right move and it's now going to likely payoff 391 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 5: as I think the Seahawks are a top ten team 392 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 5: this season and Mike McDonald seems to have that defense right, 393 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 5: you know, in a good place. But they didn't bottom 394 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 5: out retch, they didn't go three to fourteen. Yeah, no, 395 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 5: they just yeah, they were just there just was nothing there. 396 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 5: So that's when you have to make the decision. So 397 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,239 Speaker 5: that's when you are ownership or that's where you are 398 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 5: the front office. You really have to have a sense 399 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 5: overall of is it blowing it up, is it not 400 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 5: blowing it up, is it tearing it down? 401 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 3: Do you just need a new voice? 402 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 5: Because even just with with the Seahawks on paper, it 403 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 5: wouldn't have looked like Pete Carroll was worthy of being dismissed. 404 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 5: Yet everything that you saw for the past three seasons 405 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 5: were probably reasons why he should have been dismissed. 406 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: Then you hear about people that well, they you know, 407 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: they they couldn't read the room, and they got rid 408 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 1: of clubhouse guys, guys that really bonded the team and 409 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: you and you know, over a long season, you forget 410 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: these clubhouse guys, these locker room guys in football, they 411 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: may have more value than you think. I heard like JD. 412 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: Martinez and oh my god, Iglesias was a big deal 413 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: for the Mets and kept things light. So every team's 414 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: got those guys. Maybe you don't value them enough, and 415 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. It just it's interesting to see your 416 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: team on the outside looking in when there's just so 417 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: much talent. It's frustrating all in all sports for that matter, 418 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: it really is. 419 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 5: Nego Horner a sacrifice fly bottom of the eighth inning, 420 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 5: comes now up three to one on the Padres, bottom 421 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 5: of the eighth. 422 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: Well, I guess you know, I saved myself money because 423 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: I probably would have tried to go to one of 424 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: these games. Now I'm doing the rationalization, save money playoff games. 425 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 3: Who wants to spend all enjoy it? Yeah? Yeah? 426 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 4: And Rich really quick to tie in a couple of 427 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 4: teams who played last night. The Dolphins responded the way 428 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 4: we thought they would. We saw them play hard against 429 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 4: the Bills. We saw them play hard last night. And 430 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 4: then I heard Ben Maller on our Network screaming about 431 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 4: how the Bengals gave up on coach Zach Taylor. So 432 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 4: there's obviously injury involved in that situation. But there's a 433 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 4: couple of teams like the Titans, the Bengals, Panthers. 434 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 3: For me, yeah, I. 435 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: From the quarterback himself that the Titans are s Yeah. 436 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: Quarterback himself told me. I was like, what with NFL. 437 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: You're talking about your Mets. With NFL such shorter season, obviously, 438 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, what do you do in that situation? Do 439 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: you do you blow it up halfway through and try 440 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: to salvage something with an assistant coach taking over, or 441 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: do you wait until the offseason. I mean, if your 442 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: team's ass, I mean, we're keeping a book right now, 443 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: we ask yeah, I mean if your ass, I mean 444 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: you saw your Raiders Antonio Pierce came in to try 445 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: to save the day, but that doesn't work out long term. 446 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: All the time, the NFL much shorter leash because you're 447 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: talking about seventeen games, not one sixty two or eighty two. 448 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 3: You know, it's. 449 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: A different mindset, you know. I just want to make 450 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: one more analogy and then we'll move on. I think, 451 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: whether it's baseball football, basketball, hockey, every sport where you 452 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: have a passionate fan base, especially where again one last 453 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: Mets note, they broke their attendance record. The fans really 454 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: thought you got Soto. They believed in what this team 455 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: was building. So you break attendance records. There needs to 456 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: be accountability. Danny g Danbar. You guys are dads. When 457 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: your kid does something, especially as they get older, when 458 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: they do something and misbehave, they have to be held accountable. 459 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 3: It's just yeah, fifteen minutes in the dog crate. 460 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: Yep, that's what Danny does. The little CoA put him 461 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: in the dog crate. It's a large dog crate. Don't 462 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: nobody like when my kids, you know, Coach Rich here, 463 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: When my kids mope around, I say, hey, listen, buddy, 464 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: you gotta put I always say energy and effort. That's 465 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: what Coach Rich wants. Energy, effort and just play and 466 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: have fun. Energy and effort. When that kid's moping around, 467 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, man, Then you ask me, hey, coach, 468 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: could I play shortstop or bet? First? No, you didn't 469 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: put in the effort, effort and energy, buddy boy. So 470 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: I think we want to see accountability and when your 471 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: team poops to bed, and it's like, oh, don't worry, 472 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: coaches will be back, and oh the core is still here. 473 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: Fans don't like that. They want accountability. It's like it's 474 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: like a husband that goes to Vegas for the weekend 475 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: and you know, bang some girls spearm at Rhino and 476 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: then his wife's like, oh, honey, you silly goose, like 477 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: he should be held accountable. I'm not saying that's a 478 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: true story. It happened to me. I'm just saying that's 479 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: happened to someone. Sure, allays will be boys and boys. Yeah, 480 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: very descriptive, you know. And then and then lost seven 481 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: hundred dollars on roulette that night. What I'm kidding very 482 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: specific titles. Well, hey, your thoughts on blowing up the 483 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: team or running it back?

Today would have 642 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 5: been the only real workout they would have done. But 643 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 5: that was the message from San Francisco. 644 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: Man that point spread jump from four and a half 645 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: to Rams by six and a half in the last day. 646 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: So sentiment is that short week Niners are banged up, 647 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: Rams are home. 648 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, and the Nick Bosa injury.

So yeah, not adding up 652 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 5: good on a short week for the forty nine ers. 653 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: No, you know, I always wonder this, and I've said 654 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: it before. It it's not so much a deep stoner thought, 655 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 1: but like when when Brock Purdy has two days until 656 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: a Thursday night football game and you know, Dan Byer 657 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: and all the experts are saying, well, well, we'll see 658 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: we got forty eight hours. How is he nursing that toe? 659 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean, is someone does he have an on site 660 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: like messuse like rubbing his tootsies? Is he like heating it, 661 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: cooling it, heating it, cooling it like is it? Or 662 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: is he just chilling? I always wonder, like to what 663 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: extent when some guys like ollh, this hamstrings a little? 664 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: Is he have someone NonStop throughout the day just rubbing 665 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: them down? 666 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 5: I would think, so, right, I mean to that point, yes, 667 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 5: so he had come over to his house. 668 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: Remember when too used to go in like chambers and 669 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: stuff like, Yes, this is the top level of all 670 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: athletic performance. So I am my picture Brock Purdy from 671 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: now until Thursday has someone caressing his toe? 672 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 3: Sure you fantasize about it? Do you do you want him? 673 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: Like? 674 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 5: I mean, this is a this is a big picture 675 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 5: sort of deal. I think with the forty nine ers, 676 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 5: I don't know if it's a guarantee if they beat 677 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 5: the Rams on Thursday night, if he plays. 678 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: The argument could be, you know, mac Jones has looked 679 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: pretty good. Yeah, I would not be. I don't think 680 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: it's worth four and a half to six and a half. 681 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a two point point spread in 682 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: Vegas move when you go from Perdy to mac Jones. 683 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: I think mac Jones has performed admirably under Kyle Shanahan's system. 684 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: I think the bigger question marks are, you know, if 685 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: Pierce All and Jennings are banged up, that's not good 686 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: because now who's the weapons you got. You're gonna be 687 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: doing practice squad guys before you know it. Yeah, so 688 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: I think mac Jones will be all right all right. Well, 689 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 1: speaking of wide receivers, one of the most flashy, fun fastest, 690 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: most respected wide receivers in all the National Football League 691 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: looked really fired up yesterday before the game, Danny Is, 692 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: we were ending our show and making way for the 693 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: odd couple. I said, look at the screen, Tyreek Hill, 694 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: he's his hands, he's fired up. He was really pumping 695 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: up the Dolphins in that sweet looking uniform, and you're like, wow, 696 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill started that game. He was being pretty productive, 697 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: and then you saw his leg twisted around in one 698 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: of those oh, I don't know if I want to 699 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: see that again type of plays. So I have a 700 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: thought about Tyreek Hill, and I have a thought about 701 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: where we've come with sports and injuries that I haven't 702 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: really heard many people talk about. Again, it might sound 703 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: like a bit of a deep drunk or high thought, 704 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: but you're gonna like it, and we're gonna get to 705 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: it next right here, Covin on Rich, Fox Sports Radio, 706 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: all right, day and night. Hey Covino on Rich doing 707 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: it live, Fox Sports Radio Studio, and it's time for 708 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: our Tirerak Tire Act play of the day. You gotta 709 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: feel bad for the guy. Tyreek Hill's leg basically snapped 710 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: in half and it looked as if he's trying to 711 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: fire up the crowd. Afterwards, Ryk killed the injured dolphin 712 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: following his reception they called for a cart. 713 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 3: Joe, He's on the cart. Now all the guys, the 714 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 3: Dolphin players coming over to the hand. The whole came 715 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 3: over right out. That's not a good sign. 716 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: That is courtesy of Fox Sports nine forty Dolphins Rady 717 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: on Network, our TIRAQT play or I guess you would 718 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: say moment of the day. For over forty years, Tirerack's 719 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: been helping people find the right tires for how, what 720 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: and where they drive. Ship Fast and free back by 721 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: free Road, has a protection, convenient installation options like mobile 722 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: tire installation tyraq dot com, the way tired buying should be. 723 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 1: And insensitively, I'm sure people like he was on my 724 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: fantasy team. He looked pretty fired up, and as the 725 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: insensitive memes go, he's just happy he doesn't have to 726 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: play for the Dolphins anymore. Of course, now you know 727 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: what's interesting injuries like that, timelines. I'm always so intrigued 728 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: when like when Nick Mosa went down, I'm like, oh, 729 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 1: could be back by the playoffs. Then I'm thinking to 730 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 1: remember Aaron Rodgers when he was hurt. His whole thing 731 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 1: was I'm training that I'm gonna beat the odds. And 732 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: remember he had planned to come back that year had 733 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: the Jets been competitive. He had the whole Achilles thing 734 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, I'll be ready to roll, and 735 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: You're like ready to roll. It's never been done. And 736 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: I see, like, my dude, Brandon Ayuk with no real 737 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: end in silent, when's he coming back? But tyreek Hill, 738 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 1: according to Drew Rosenhouse, right, Dan Bayer said, the plan 739 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: with the right rehab will be the beginning of the season. 740 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:58,880 Speaker 1: Isn't that a lot that's ambitious? 741 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:02,320 Speaker 5: Now that it's not ambitious, it's such an agent doing 742 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 5: his job for a guy that will be available for 743 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,280 Speaker 5: teams to sign. Yeah, So that's the that's the issue 744 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 5: at hand is I wouldn't believe anything that Drew Rosenhaus 745 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 5: is saying, but I am reporting it because that is 746 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 5: what he said. I just think it's the surgery they 747 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 5: had today successful from what we understand. But like as 748 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 5: Ayuk situation was, Kyle Shanahan says, guess what there was 749 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 5: more damage. Are we going to find out what exactly 750 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 5: happened to Tyreek Hill's knee? Is it just an acl 751 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 5: is it multiple ligaments in that knee? I think it 752 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 5: behooves only Drew Rosenhaus and Tyreek Hill to say that 753 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 5: he is going to be ready for the start of 754 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 5: next season. 755 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 1: Man, it did not look good. And I always wonder 756 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: in those moments, and again, God forbid this ever happens 757 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: to any of us playing Rex sports or anything you get. 758 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 1: You know, every so often you play softball, basketball at 759 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: the jim, you know you see guys r own age 760 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: forty something all of a sudden. Ah, I've seen guys 761 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 1: rounding second base and as they always say, it looks 762 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: so is there a sniper in the tree, Like some 763 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: guy just falls in between second and third base. As 764 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: we all get older, not just pros, people have these 765 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: injuries and they're brutal. You see people twisting these Is 766 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: the adrenaline pumping so much that while it is pain, 767 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: it's more just that adrenaline shock or do you think 768 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: it's not to be morbid? Is it like a constant 769 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,479 Speaker 1: pain in that moment or is it more adrenaline in shock? 770 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: You think when Tyreek Hill is like waving and pumping 771 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: up the crowd. 772 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 4: Shock, right, I mean like yeah, absolutely yeah, in adrenaline 773 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 4: rushing through his body. I'm sure in his mind and 774 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 4: he's got a big ego. We all know that, but 775 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 4: he's thinking to himself, I got to come back from this. 776 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 4: He's in your mind like everything's going in fast fast 777 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 4: foot yeah, and you're thinking about what's to come. But 778 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 4: at the same time, he's trying to let the fans 779 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 4: know I'm all right, I'm gonna be back. 780 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 3: I'm all right, and we're gonna be good in this game. 781 00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 3: Right here, I was telling Danny about this. 782 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 2: We were talking about like it sort of seemed like 783 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 2: one of those kind of unrealistically positive reactions like, Yeah, 784 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be back from this and no time, it's 785 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 2: gonna be fine. Everything's gonna be good, Mike. I guess 786 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 2: to be a really great athlete like that, you have 787 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 2: to have that mentality. 788 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 1: Yes, so, But Drew rosenhows, like Dan Bayer said, he 789 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: has to be optimistic. Danny, Denise, say, you send me 790 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: a little screenshot of what like some of the guaranteed 791 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: money that's not guaranteed, or some of the money that 792 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: you might have thought, oh, he's gonna get, but there's 793 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: not a lot of guarantees for Tyreek Hill. 794 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 795 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll look up that contract info right now. But 796 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 4: as Bayer was saying, he's going to be available and yeah, 797 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 4: according to a spot track, it says his contract contains 798 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 4: one point eight million of per game active roster bonuses 799 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty five, one point four million of which 800 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,439 Speaker 4: he'll now miss out on. None of the thirty six 801 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 4: million owed to him in twenty twenty six is currently guaranteed. 802 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: Damn. So that's that's you know, you tell, I mean, 803 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: we forget perspective sometimes because these guys make so much 804 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 1: money that injury, you know, could have cost Tyreek Hill 805 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: thirty forty million dollars. 806 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 5: There's also there's also the fact of there's sometimes our 807 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 5: injury guarantees and contracts. However, with that being the final 808 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 5: year next year of Tyreek Hill's contract, not likely to 809 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 5: have injury guarantees. So remember when the Broncos benched Russell Wilson. Yes, 810 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 5: there was also the point of they don't want to 811 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 5: get him hurt so his salary the next year doesn't 812 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 5: kick in and then you're on the hook for that. 813 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 5: With Tyreek Hill, that doesn't apply in this situation. 814 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill and Drew Rosenhaus their goal now is to 815 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: recover and put the perception out there that some new 816 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: team's going to sign him to a new deal next 817 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 1: year because he'll be ready to go for Week one. 818 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: It's wild. So wishing Tyreek the best. And I want 819 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: to bring up a thought that you might think, Rich, 820 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 1: Is this like some did you have an edible last night? 821 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 1: I did not, But this is a thought that I 822 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: feel like I don't hear enough people talk about maybe 823 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: to free your mind at night. Let me tell you, 824 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: Danny G. Maybe it's because I'm not thinking like a 825 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: sports stat nerd I'm thinking more like like a regular 826 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 1: dumb guy. Thought in our lifetime, the amount of Tommy 827 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: John surgeries, acls Achilles, these major major injuries we're seeing 828 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: in sports, is there any part of you that thinks 829 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 1: when these sports were developed, we have outgrown athletically the 830 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 1: way these sports were designed to be played, Meaning people 831 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: weren't throwing one hundred and three miles an hour, Tommy 832 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: John surgery and all these things weren't to think because 833 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 1: it was just a bunch of tough guys that had 834 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: jobs in the offseason and through eighty five ninety miles 835 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: an hour. It was like, of course, Nolan Ryan, but 836 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: these guys weren't thrown like that when we were kids, 837 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: there was one Lawrence Taylor. Every team has three guys 838 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,399 Speaker 1: with the size and speed and strength of Lawrence Taylor. Now, 839 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: so we'll continue this deep thought and more next right here, 840 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio
