Play the hit, 41 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: small Man, play the hits, one of our bosses used 42 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: to say back in the day. So our lead this 43 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: hour is from the Big A in Anaheim, the greatest 44 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: team in baseball history, the twenty twenty five Dodgers. 45 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 2: So good. 46 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: No way they can f this up, No way they 47 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 1: can f this up. Well, the sweep complete the lowly Halos, 48 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: a pathetic, wretched franchise with the longest playoff drought active 49 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball. They are the bad News Bears 50 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: and Anaheim and they sent the gutless Dodgers into base 51 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: ball hell. 52 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 2: And if you didn't see the game, probably didn't. Maybe 53 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: you missed it. 54 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: Despite Shohei O'tani starting for the Blue Crew, couldn't bet 55 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: on that catcher Logan o'hoppi coming up big late in 56 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: the game. 57 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 2: He had a two run ribby. 58 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: Single in the eighth inning, and the Angels swept the 59 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: season Freeway series with a six to five win over 60 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: the once proud Dodger franchise. 61 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 2: The sub five hundred Angels. 62 00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: Somehow Someway swept both series against the supposedly immortal Dodgers 63 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: this season. They have now won going back to last year, 64 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: seventh straight. That's a franchise record against the team they 65 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: wish they were. 66 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: Maybe the Angels. 67 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: Playing Anaheim, which is an Orange county about thirty five 68 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: miles or so from LA and they call themselves the 69 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: La Angels because they want to be the Dodgers anyway. 70 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: But it's not about that. Did you hear the latest 71 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: pearls of wisdom from Dave Roberts? Dave Roberts, if you 72 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: did not see this or hear about it, maybe not. 73 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: I watched the news conference postgame news conference from the 74 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: Big A. 75 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: There Dave Roberts trying to. 76 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,679 Speaker 1: Spin spin bad baseball, bad baseball played by his team 77 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: yet again. Roberts said he liked the way the Dodgers 78 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: played as they got swept. 79 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 2: I'm not making this up. I'm not. I promise you 80 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: hand to God, I'm not making this up. Roberts said. 81 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: Across the board, we did a good job competing, he said. 82 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: In another quote, Roberts said, in a vacuum, we played 83 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: well close quote. All right, So let us discuss the 84 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: question what do you take away from Dave Roberts. As 85 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: the Dodgers have now fallen out of first place, the 86 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: San Diego Padres are in first place now in the 87 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: National League West, and the Dodgers get swept by the Angels, 88 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: and Dave Roberts says, he says, across the board, we 89 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: did a good job competing. In a vacuum. We played well. 90 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: So what do you take away from Dave Roberts saying 91 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,799 Speaker 1: that he liked the way the Dodgers played while losing 92 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: and getting swept. So my observations here, I've got Karen Bass, 93 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: Dice and Oakie and we will combine all of these 94 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: things together and we will cross the pearly gates is 95 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: where we're going to go. 96 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 2: So number. 97 00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: Now, it is appropriate that Dave Roberts mentioned a vacuum. 98 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: You see, Dave Roberts, you are the vacuum. You suck the. 99 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: Energy out of the room. Yet that there's no urgency. 100 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: There's none. And Dave is the maestro of being tone deaf. 101 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: He is from back in the day. I really liked 102 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: him in that spot. The Dodgers are. 103 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: In the middle of his skid. 104 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: They look like they're going through the motions and they've 105 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: looked that way for a couple of months now. And 106 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: the manager, plausibly, the one who's the boss of the 107 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: team on the field, is essentially saying, Hey, don't worry 108 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: about the results, guys, just trust us, bro That's what 109 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts is saying. It's like they're allergic to accountability 110 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: over there. The players make so much money you can't 111 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: criticize them. The Dodgers since July first have played thirty 112 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: six games. They're fifteen and twenty one. They're playing four 113 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: to seventeen baseball. That's the Dodgers. It's pete Dodger arrogance 114 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 1: and it drives me batty. 115 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 2: I'm serious. 116 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: I family the only one that cares. I know, like 117 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: the local LA talks to those guys. You know, we're Nationals, 118 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: so it's a little different, but the local guys, it 119 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: seems like there's they just don't care. It's like that 120 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: there's and this is the LA sports version of don't worry, baby, 121 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: We'll be fine. 122 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: We will be fine while the house you know what's happening. 123 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts sounds like the mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass, 124 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: while she was on a trip to Africa, essentially saying, listen, 125 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: the water supply the city waters by, no big deal, folks. Meanwhile, 126 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: the pipes are bone dry, the palisades are burning up. 127 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: Uh, and the mayor in LA had nothing to worry 128 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: about you. It's complacency. It it's fines like I don't 129 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: want you to try too hard. Don't try too hard. 130 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: Just do the bare minimum. That's the Dodger way, that's 131 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: the dot. The sword is rolling great, right now do 132 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: the bare minimum. Make sure you collect that paycheck though, 133 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: and that line in a vacuum that is chef's kiss, 134 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: chef's kids. That's just like managers speak for. Ignore the scoreboard, 135 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: ignore the standings. Yeah, we're looking up, but they took 136 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: it to the Podreys, right. 137 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. Yeah, see Dave. 138 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: For some people, I know, not a lot, but for 139 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: some people like it actually does matter, like they and 140 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: the standings do matter. 141 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 2: And your guys look flat. 142 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: They have been outplayed by clearly inferior teams, and instead 143 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: of trying to light a fire under them. 144 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 2: It appears you're handing out juice boxes, is what you're doing. Now. 145 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 2: There was a guy, and I. 146 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: Don't know if Loraina can find the sound by, but 147 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: there was a manager of the Mariners named John McLaren, 148 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: and he went on a rant when the seattle he 149 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: was like a temporary manager for the marriage, but he 150 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: went on a rant. You know, sick and tired of losing. 151 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: I'm sick of I want a manager to be that manager. 152 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: I want. 153 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: I would love to have Dave Roberts come out and 154 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: just explode like John McLaren and say, I'm sick and 155 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: titled losing. These guys are sick and tired of losing 156 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: and just going on and on. That's what I want. 157 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: I don't want in a vacuum. We played well. 158 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 2: I don't need that. I don't want that. Don't say that. 159 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 2: Never say that you suck. Your team blows right now? 160 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 2: You Oh well I. 161 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: Thought we could beat it.

You have no idea who that is. 164 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: I want Dave Roberts to sound like this, tay A. Listen, 165 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: we're playing our off every day and got nothing to 166 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: show for it. 167 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: I'm tired of losing.

Never turn this thing around. 177 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 2: And that's the. 178 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I want. I want that I don't want. Hey, 179 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: we did a good job competing in a vacuum. We 180 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: played well, that's Dave Robert. I want the other I 181 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: want the other guy. That's what I want. It's like 182 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: they think, the Dodgers think the playoffs are an automatic birthright, 183 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: and they keep adding wild card teams and all that stuff. 184 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: So it's like they just have this mindset, Well, we'll 185 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: flip the switch when we need to. The other issue 186 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,359 Speaker 1: I have, since we're Aaron Grievans, is here is the 187 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: Dodger fan. I watched some of that Angel Dodger game. 188 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: It was eighty five ninety Dodger fans. There are no 189 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: Angel fans, right. It was like Dodger Stadium in ANAEIM 190 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: And they're so used, the Dodger fans so used this 191 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: generation of dominance in the regular season, and you know, 192 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: it's just meaningless platitudes and it's like, well, get to 193 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs and all that stuff. It's like it just 194 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: drives me nuts, it does. I think I've made that clear. 195 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: It drives me freaking nuts. Art Moving on from that, 196 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: other things that I observed while I was perusing the 197 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: Sporting World trying to get ready for this talk show, 198 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: I was watching some of the Yankee Twins game from 199 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: the Bronx. 200 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 2: That's where we're going to go. 201 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: The reason I watched this game maybe I had a 202 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: financial investment in, maybe I didn't. But the other thing 203 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: I was watching was it was a rain delay game, 204 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: so it was like a two hour raindo lay, so 205 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: the games started a little later than normal. And for 206 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: some reason I had this game on and there's somebody 207 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: stood out. So what was your reaction to Twins starter 208 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: Joe Ryan screaming if you saw this or not screaming 209 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: the F word after multiple pitches in his start against 210 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: the Yankees. Joe Ryan's the guy that was supposedly traded 211 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: to the Red Sox, although it didn't actually happen, and 212 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: he's like one of two guys. It's Joe Ryan and 213 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: Iron Buxton and a bunch of Bush League players on 214 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Twins. Anyway, Joe Ryan is out there, so 215 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: my reaction, So Joe Ryan's out there dropping F bombs 216 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: like it's a Scorsese movie, and and it seemed like 217 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: every other pitch in the middle, and that's I think 218 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: it was the fifth of the sixth inning. You clearly 219 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: I was on the Amazon feed. You clearly heard f 220 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: I can't say clear as day. The Amazon broadcast Mike's 221 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: picked it up, and every syllable was hilarious. I was 222 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: texting my buddies, take turn on the Yankee game. 223 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 2: This is great. Joe Ryan is out there. He's like 224 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,439 Speaker 2: that old comedian Andrew dice Clay from Back of the 225 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 2: Day on of my ound. He works blue the diceman 226 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 2: with the fastball. 227 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: And then you got Michael Kay in the booth trying 228 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: to gaslight the audience, kind of pretending. 229 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, you're not really hearing what you think you're hearing. 230 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: God he even he kind of gave up on that 231 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: after a while, like, well, Joe Ryan's out there saying shucks. 232 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 2: No, he's not saying shocks. Now. 233 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: I don't hate this, by the way, I don't hate this. 234 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: The guy's intense. He's got a weird thing, uh borderlines 235 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: spectrum me. There's not that many guys like that left 236 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: in baseball, and. 237 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: I enjoyed it. 238 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: You know, he missed a pitch by an inch and boom, 239 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: you know, f work, you know, kick, kick a trash can. 240 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 241 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: It doesn't appear to be a heck of a heck 242 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: of a pitcher. But he's he's also got this. We 243 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: he's like a tennis player. Tennis players like the grunt 244 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: and curse and all that stuff. And we just talked 245 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: about the Dodgers who look lifeless, and the Twins are 246 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: a pathetic team. But it's refreshing when you see a 247 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: player that has that competitive spirit and doesn't look like 248 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: a lifeless zombie. 249 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: Uh. You enjoy that the raw emotion that that get. 250 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 2: So I thought that was pretty cool. 251 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: Now our final point, we're gonna stay with the the Twins. Uh, 252 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: several of you who listen to us in the Twin 253 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: Cities in the great state of Minnesota. 254 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: No, you got to talk about this here. You should 255 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: talk about this. It's a big story. Uh. 256 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 1: So, after announcing that they were going to sell the 257 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: baseball team, the Polead Family, the group that owns the 258 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: baseball team, called the Twins, they did an about face 259 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: this week and they said in a prepared statement that 260 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: they quote explored a wide range of potential investment and 261 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: ownership possibilities. But you know what that means, they will 262 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: remain the controlling owners moving forward of the Minnesota Twins. 263 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: So how should Twins fans handle the Polead family deciding 264 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: not to sell the Twins after all? All right, So 265 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: the Minnesota baseball team just pulled a fast one worthy 266 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: of like Ocean's eleven, except instead of robbing a casino, 267 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: they robbed the fan of hope. Because there was hope. 268 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: There was like, Okay, this is all gonna be okay. 269 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: The pole Aad family, they had the Twins fans thinking 270 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: they were about to hit the power ball, and they 271 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: started clearing the book. They sold off all the entire 272 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: bullpen of the Twins, trader of way, half the big 273 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: league roster. It was like a clearance sale at big lots. 274 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: They were getting rid of everything, and you're thinking, Okay, 275 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: finally these tight wads in Minnesota are cashing out. They've 276 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: got a lot of debt, they're getting rid of contracts, 277 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: and they're gonna move on sell the team that you 278 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: put up with it. You put up with it because 279 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: you thought this would lead to the sale of the 280 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: team and a new owner who might even think, hey, 281 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: we can build the World Series team. It's not just 282 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: a rumor, but no psych the old Oki dokie. They 283 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: did the Oki doky one second there, it's like the 284 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: Gene Wilder scene from Willie Walker. 285 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: Right, they're walking with. 286 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: A limp and then the cane and then the cobblestone 287 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: and then you know, next thing you know, they fall. 288 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: They about to fall, hop back up and strut in 289 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: right to the bank with your ticket deposit.

That is by design, 510 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: that is by design, and they're all getting hurt anyway. 511 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter, It does not matter. 512 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 1: Andy and Lionel lakes right since says, you just gave 513 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: me another good reason why I don't spend any money 514 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: on the penny pinching poll ads. He says, another kick 515 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: right in the store. To all the Twins fans, Thanks guys, 516 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: there you go.

Our friend Jonathan in Delaware 523 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: rights and says, baseball rules. Damn, I love baseball. Please 524 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: keep talking about baseball, he says, And he says, did 525 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 1: you see John Boy Media got a major investment from 526 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball? 527 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: I did? I did. 528 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: Baseball is attempting to get become cool. They're trying to 529 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: become cool. That's the the goal. They want to be cool, 530 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 1: and so they feel like they have to embrace the 531 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: social media accounts that are are seen as cool. It's 532 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: always a little sketchy for me, Jonathan. When the leagues 533 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: are running the media, you're getting filtered media. And again 534 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: I realize that I'm getting older and a lot of 535 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: the young people have they don't care. They are fanboys 536 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: and they they don't criticize their favorite team. 537 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 2: And they love them and they. 538 00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: Lick their toes and it's just Manny and Patty, and 539 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: I guess I'm just I'm outdated because I like the 540 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: whole people accountable and I like to be critical, and 541 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: these leagues run the media. 542 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 2: And I remember I had a conversation. 543 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: I've talked about this in the past, but I had 544 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: a conversation years ago man A long time ago, generation ago, 545 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: an executive at a sports franchise. This is when the 546 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: Internet was kind of getting going. People were still using 547 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: Aol and Netscape. And this person, one of the great 548 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: soothsayers of our time, he told me, he said, no, Ben, 549 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: in twenty years, we are going to control the media. 550 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: We're going to control the narrative, and we're going to 551 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: clean up all this negative stuff because we'll be the 552 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: ones that we be writing the stories and be putting 553 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: the broadcasts out, and we'll be in control of everything. 554 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: And it's like when MLB dot com kind of got going, 555 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I know about that. I mean, I 556 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: think people still will want to find legitimate opinions where 557 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: someone's critical and it appears that that person was absolutely right. 558 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: That we have now it's been more than twenty years 559 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: since I was told that, and we are at the 560 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:20,479 Speaker 1: point now where there has been an entire generation that 561 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: has been raised on fanboy, cheerleader, Pom pom stuff, and 562 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: they love it and they don't want anyone to be critical. 563 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: And it's like this this burner account for the pole 564 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: Ed family. In my opinion there in Minnesota, it's like 565 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: they just want positivity. They just that's that's all they want. 566 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: That's that's all they need. Milkman, Mike says, great opening monologue, 567 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: discussing the recent perils of the Dodgers. As the season 568 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: goes on, the Dodger front office is now finding themselves 569 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: fending off the mobs of fans demanding answers. See, I 570 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: don't think there's mobs of fans demanding answers. That's that's 571 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: one of my shoes. I let's go back to the phone. 572 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: We'll go to the phones for the first time. Kevin 573 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: is in the sunshell.

Your torments were a pro about 614 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 5: Dave Robins, Dave, Dave bunch of stupid. The last name. 615 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: I believe he likes to be called Roberts. Dave Roberts 616 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: is what he likes to be called. But you can 617 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: call him whatever you want. 618 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,959 Speaker 2: I mean, call mcclown, you call him, you know, schmuck. 619 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 2: I don't call him whatever you want. 620 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 5: But I would be so frustrated if that was my team, 621 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 5: with all the money and all the fantastic count and 622 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 5: the in the first baseman that they somehow robbed from 623 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 5: from the Braves, rob him. 624 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: From the Brave they signed him the Braves could have. 625 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 5: Been signed whatever. 626 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 2: Listen, Kevin. And one of the other issues. 627 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: One of the other issues here, I've been told this 628 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: over the years is one of the reasons that Dave 629 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: Roberts is the way he is is because the players 630 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: are so soft they cannot handle public criticism and so 631 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: uh they just they can't handle it. 632 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 2: They are they are not wired that way. 633 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,959 Speaker 1: They have had their asses kissed all the way up 634 00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 1: the minor leagues, high school, if they went to. 635 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 2: If they went to college, yes, yeah. 636 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: If they went to college. You know that's I just 637 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,920 Speaker 1: paused there for effect. Anyway I did. I paused for effect. 638 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: It was a dramatic I was a Gottlieb there. 639 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 2: I did a pause. I'm going to coach Green Bay 640 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 2: basketball next. Yes. 641 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: Deep thoughts, random, deep thoughts for sure. Anyway, it is 642 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: the Ben Mather Show. The Dodgers doing something that hasn't 643 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: happened since the nineties. Congratulations the Dodgers, the first reigning 644 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: World Series champion since the nineteen ninety eight Marlins. There 645 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: were the Florida Marlins to get swept twice in a 646 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: season series of six or more games. The Dodgers swept 647 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: by the Angels and the Brewers this year. You might remember, 648 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: if you're old, the Marlins. They went for it in 649 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: ninety seven. They had a fire sale after that. I 650 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: was actually at that World Series in Miami and Cleveland. 651 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: The Indians got to a Game seven and blew it. 652 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: Jose Mesa and Omar Viskell never forgave him. But anyway, 653 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: the mar were a shell of what they had been. 654 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: They were not trying to win in nineteen ninety eight, 655 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 1: and that's why they got swept by these teams. Plausibly, 656 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 1: the Dodgers are trying to win, but somehow. On July fourth, 657 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,760 Speaker 1: the Dodgers had a nine game lead in the Nationally 658 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: West over the Potters. Nine games in six weeks. The 659 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: Dodgers are now one game behind the Podreys are in 660 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: sole possession of the catbird seat in the Nationallygue West, 661 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: and they deserve it. Podres went for it, and it 662 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: was the vote of no confidence. And no one's talking 663 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: about this either, but the Dodger front office was not aggressive. 664 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: Andrew Freeman, by his actions, the general manager of the Dodgers, 665 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: pretty much announced he didn't think this team had it. 666 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: But because they didn't do it, they didn't do anything 667 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 1: of note. They didn't do anything to really improve the roster. 668 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: The Podreys did. They tore down half their roster. They 669 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 1: went for it. They added the top available relief pitcher 670 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 1: from the athletics.
