Yeah, maybe Benny went 47 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: to the bathrooms a supposed to. That'll be how it 48 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: goes through. Uh, but let me just say this, right, 49 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: all of all of today, Pete Alonzo leaves the day 50 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: after and let me let me do the head things first. Right. 51 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh no, you again, Look, Okay, the Mets don't play tomorrow, 52 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: so they don't have to worry about putting a team 53 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: out there tomorrow. 54 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 4: So you sound like Cohen. That's exactly what we started 55 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 4: trying to again because I said it last night. What 56 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 4: did I say last night? 57 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: Wait, do we have to go to our bullpen tomorrow 58 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: and and figure out no, we're not playing again. If 59 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: in the middle of February we don't have Kyle Tucker 60 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: or Cody Bellinger or Suarez, or if we don't have 61 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: any of those guys, I'll say, Okay, I'm a little concerned, 62 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: but uh, it's clear the Mets have a plan, and 63 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: I give him a lot of guts for sticking to it. 64 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: Because David Stern's nose, he's the most unpopular GM in 65 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: the game of baseball. He has put a bull's eye 66 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: on him. But this is but this is him saying, 67 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: I know what we need. Last year was a real disaster, 68 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: and I get it because they've gone as far as 69 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: they can with this core. Do you really think just 70 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: trotting out the the same guys again next year? And 71 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: Diaz and Nimo and and and and Alonso, who these 72 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: guys whose contracts are coming up, do you think if 73 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: we trotted them out there, the result is going to 74 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: be different. We'll just spend more money. We'll spend another 75 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: two hundred million dollars on a combination of Alonzo and 76 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: ds two hundred and fifty million. I'm just bringing the 77 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: two of them back for a team that Oh, by 78 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: the way, I don't think I missed any any banner hangings. 79 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: I don't think I missed any parades in the World 80 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: Series of last years with these guys. They're good players. 81 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: Pete Alan this is a good player. He can't field 82 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: at all, right, he's got real difficulty in the field. 83 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter because hey, he's he hits, he hits terrific. 84 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: But he's thirty. He's over thirty. He's got a five 85 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: year deal it's way too much money for a guy 86 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: that only can do one thing. And if you want 87 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: him to DH, you go want other guys to DH. 88 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: I get not going in. And the Mets plan clearly was, Hey, 89 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 1: Pete's gonna be too much for us, So why they 90 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: didn't make him an offer? Right, That's why didn't make 91 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: him offer. They knew that someone's gonna give him more 92 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: money this time around because he's coming off a bigger year. 93 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: So we're just gonna say goodbye. And they said goodbye. 94 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: If Alonzo would have said, hey, two, three years and 95 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: maybe you know, you know, ninety million or something like that, 96 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: the Mets might have said, oh, okay, maybe that's that. 97 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: But you got to get five years, one hundred and 98 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: fifty five million dollars when you can. Right, that's the 99 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: biggest contract we've seen in a little while. And Alonso 100 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: gets it. I get it because like Jim Behein used 101 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: to say, I just want to win. I give a 102 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: I could give a blank who plays, right, I don't 103 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: care who plays. I want to win. So this is 104 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: the beginning, the beginning of the art. There's lots of 105 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: guys out there, and if they don't get any of 106 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: those players over the next month or two. I'll like that. 107 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: I'll say, Okay, now we really have a conversation. But 108 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 1: I feel like there's a plan in place, and Alonzo 109 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: and Diaz maybe DZ fit a little bit, but Alonso 110 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: clearly didn't fit. You've seen his best. I don't think 111 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: anybody was jumping up and down for the Cardinals the 112 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: year after they got rid of Albert Pools to the Angels. 113 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: They wanted ten more years of that contract? Or are 114 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: they happy to dump them off? Because yeah, we saw 115 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: his best. We got as far as we could with him. 116 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: Now it's just gonna be diminishing returns the rest of 117 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: his career. That's kind of what it's gonna be for Alonzo. 118 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: So yeah, it sucks because the the emotion part of 119 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: it is, Mike, Yeah, today was tough, Man, Today was tough. 120 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: I almost cried a couple of times because seeing the 121 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: home run, listening to the home run against the Brewers, 122 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: and this is what's typical Mets. The big home run 123 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: off Devin Williams two years ago to win that game 124 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: and put him into the nl DS against the Phillies, 125 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: my biggest home run the Mets have ever had, It's 126 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: typical Mets that we have the that gave up the 127 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: home run and we don't have the guy that hit 128 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: the home run. Right, That's Mets. But like it was emotional, 129 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: so it doesn't mean today wasn't necessary, but it also sucked. 130 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: Both things could be true because I wanted Alonzo to stay, 131 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: you want to retire and met the guys hold the 132 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: all time record for home runs, like the guy, guy's 133 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: a great player home run. I want that, but I 134 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: want to win, and I saw what happened last year 135 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: wasn't good enough, so it's time to make changes and 136 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: bringing other players. And I like that they have a 137 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: vision and I like their sticking to it. But yeah, 138 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: today still kind of sucked because I love the Alonzo man. 139 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: Just thinking about that home run again and watching it 140 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: over and over and over again over Devin Williams, it 141 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: was awesome and it made me sad, But after a 142 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: couple minutes, I wasn't sad anymore because I get that. Okay, 143 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: I want to win. Always go back to that Mike Harmon, 144 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: Always look to that. 145 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 4: Now he is only thirty one years old, so it's 146 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 4: not like this is guy that's in his mid thirties, 147 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 4: and you're looking at those last four or five years. 148 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 4: It's not a ten year deal. It's in line with 149 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 4: what Schwarberg got, obviously, hits from the other side of 150 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 4: the plate, all that institutional love and fandom and all 151 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 4: that stuff. Just as you gave me a little bit 152 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 4: of your best Steve Cohen impression of hey, we don't 153 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 4: have to play today, there's a lot of time before 154 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 4: game one. I remind you of the great Dave wanstat 155 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 4: ahead of the nineteen ninety six Chicago Bears season. All 156 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 4: the pieces are in place. They we go on to 157 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 4: finish seven and nine that year, and in the end, 158 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 4: you know, three years. I get it, you know you 159 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 4: it's not a normal three years. It's not quite dog years, 160 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 4: but not the same aging process as you know a 161 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 4: normal man or woman in their professional lives. 162 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: But you know what, would I rather spend one. 163 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 4: Hundred and fifty million on Pete Alonso or four hundred 164 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 4: million or three point fifty on Kyle Tucker? 165 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: I think I'll take what. 166 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: I know. 167 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: I think I'll take it. I know, I get it. 168 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: But the but yeah, but but the thing is, remember now, 169 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: and this is what what what? So many you know 170 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: fans forget, Oh, we have no plan. No, no, we 171 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: have a plan. And Pete Alonso is a limited guy. 172 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: He do one thing right and hits and that's awesome, right, 173 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: But if you can pay one hundred and fifty five 174 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: million dollars for a guy like Bellinger or Kyle Tucker 175 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: that can play a couple of different positions, gonna give 176 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: you some good stuff in the field. At least little 177 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: bit better stuff in the field they're gonna get from Alonso, 178 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: especially a guy like Bellinger that can play first base, 179 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: all the outfield positions. Yeah, I understand that. I understand 180 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: saying that's a guy we feel a little bit more 181 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: comfortable giving that kind of money to. I completely understand that. 182 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: And and you know, I love what Alonso did. Well, 183 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: we saw his best and we got to the NLCS 184 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: two years ago and that's where we got. The Mets, 185 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: didn't It didn't hang any banners over the last although 186 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: I mean they probably should hang one for the NLCS, 187 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: But like they went as far as they could with 188 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: this corps and they had to make change. You can't 189 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: just run it back after you collapse out of the 190 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: playoffs like they did last year. That's not a run 191 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: it back situation. I mean sign Jevin Williams. 192 00:08:54,440 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 4: I mean he's clearly shown the acumen and versatility and 193 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 4: and resolved to show up in big Oh unless no, 194 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 4: I understand this had to be a difficult day, no 195 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 4: question about it, because as I said, as we started things, 196 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,239 Speaker 4: you know, when you talk about a changing of identity 197 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 4: of an organization, it is difficult. 198 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: Peter A. 199 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 4: Lonzo is that guy? Today was a release of a 200 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 4: Big Tops baseball product.

I mean it might have been difficult for me. 208 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 4: Well you you kind of chuckled about it because you 209 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 4: think everybody did well. I think Mets fans are a 210 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 4: bit salty. I mean behind door number two is Tucker 211 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 4: Bellinger man. 212 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: In sports Frostbry Oh you kidding, man.

We're going with our normal floor to floor 222 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: was unsafe. 223 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 4: They decided it wasn't potentially a problem. 224 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Was it really unsafe or was it? Man, 225 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: I can't look at that floor again. Yeah, we'll just 226 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: say it's unsafe. I mean, I don't know. I'm just 227 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: saying I look at that, see something, look at that 228 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: conspiracy theories over something such great and there's such greatness 229 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: as the Emeralds Cup. 230 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 4: By the way, that early game, well, I want to 231 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 4: waste the time that was. I'm glad I to invest 232 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 4: a lot in watching the backups of the Oklahoma City Thunder, 233 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 4: although their second squad might run through a bunch of 234 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 4: the NBA teams right now. 235 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: But back to the task at hand. It won that 236 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: game by fifty over over Phoenix, Phoenix by fifty to 237 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: night that in an E Cup game man. 238 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 4: They were hanging out his third deck passing out peanuts. 239 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: And Phoenix is having an okay season, way better than 240 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: anybody thought they were going to have it. Fit man, 241 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: this thing was, this thing was over quick. 242 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 4: Shows you how much it means to the Thunder for 243 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 4: the extra five hundred grandy. Again, I keep waiting for 244 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 4: Pirate Steve to roll out a giant chest in Vegas. 245 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 4: But yeah, for your mets, I'm curious to see what 246 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 4: the plan is. To your point, that's fifty million dollars. 247 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 4: It's of salary. 248 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 2: Shed the furthest you guys are ever gonna go. The 249 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 2: rest of their history is the nl Whatever it was 250 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 2: against the Dodgers. 251 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: That was the NLCS that thanks for Thanks you for 252 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: whatever that was, Thanks whatever it be. Five Oh by 253 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: the way, pretty sure last year we went out and 254 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: signed the guy who's our identity for the next ten 255 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: to twelve years and one. So just just remember guy 256 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: that contract did just to finish Alonzo. 257 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 4: Because of that contract and else he got his casino. 258 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,599 Speaker 1: We have good, We have all kinds of money. Everything 259 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 1: is fine again, How is everything fine? Because it's the 260 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: beginning of the off season where Chaps comes everything Everything 261 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: is fine. Again. If we had to play tomorrow, I'd 262 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: be a little concerned. I'd be a little worried there. 263 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: But we don't. We don't have to play until the 264 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: beginning of play again. It's it's everything is okay. 265 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,599 Speaker 4: Look, it's it was azation folds. 266 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, the way we're we're not playing anymore. We're just done. 267 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: We can't do this anymore. We just can't do it. 268 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 5: No. 269 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: I mean, look for for Alonso and look the Orioles. 270 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: Get a guy who's gonna come in and his I'm 271 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: not gonna I don't think it's going to age poorly. 272 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: But the Alonso contract is going to age kind of 273 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: like Kyle Schwarber's will, right, because we've got Kyle Schwarber 274 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: the next like you know, got the five year deal 275 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: thirty two years old, only dhing. Okay, maybe the last 276 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: year and a half of that deal is gonna be rough, 277 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: right because he's he's not gonna age really really well. So, 278 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: but the first three years is fine, and the next 279 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: and the last year and a half, okay, you'll you'll 280 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: be palatable whatever that is. It's gonna be the same 281 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: thing for Alonzo, right, the next two to three years 282 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: might be okay. Now you changing teams, changing changing leagues, 283 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: a lot a lot of things. But the next couple 284 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: of years are gonna be okay. But i'll tell you 285 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: what it might be the middle and next season when 286 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: they say, hey, Pete, we want you to be the 287 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: full time DH because he outside of picking balls at 288 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: first base, he is brutal in the field. And and 289 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna say, Pete, you wanted DH, and he really 290 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: didn't want to do it. He would rather stay and 291 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: play first base. I understand guys that want to do that, 292 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: but that's gonna be the conversation in a little well, 293 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: probably midway point in next season, Hey, really quietly, Pete, 294 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: A Lonzo will move to designated hitter. But that's how 295 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: the contract's gonna age. It'll age like like Schwarberz. The 296 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: next two three years, I'm sure it'll be okay. The 297 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: last couple of years, year and a half, it's gonna 298 00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 1: be rough because he's never been a guy that's kept 299 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: himself in great shape and pulled a bear for a 300 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: long time. And as he gets to thirty four thirty five, 301 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: that's what's gonna happen the next three years. I mean, look, Hey, 302 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: great for the Orioles. Their lineup is fantastic. You're dropping 303 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: them right in amongst a bunch of guys that can 304 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: really hit. I'm excited. Look, Alonzo's a good dude, and 305 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: I loved everything he did for the Mets. I love 306 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: staying and still being excited about being being a member 307 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: of the Mets last year, even though he wanted a 308 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: big deal and the Mets didn't give it to him. 309 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: And he's only back there because he couldn't get a 310 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: bigger deal in free agency. And he was a big 311 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: pro like I get, and I wish him all the 312 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: best in the world. Man, he's an awesome, awesome dude, 313 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: and that's how it's gonna go, and things will probably 314 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: be fine. And he's a big get for the Orioles 315 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: to PLoP him right there in the middle of the lineup. 316 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, but that's how it's gonna be. And the 317 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: Mets need a little bit more in you know, with 318 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: their team than just Hey, we're giving a lot of 319 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: money to a guy who in a you know and 320 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: a half year, he's gonna dh for us, and then 321 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: we got to go out and get another first basement, right, 322 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: So I mean that's what it is. It's necessary. Everything 323 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: Mets did today, I was fin. I said goodbye to 324 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: Peter Alonzo when he hired Scott Boris as his age 325 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: I knew two years ago he's gone. He hired Scott 326 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: Boris because he was upset at his first push it 327 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: free agency. He hired Scott Boris. Now that said that 328 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: he's gone, there's no way he's staying. He is absolutely leaving. 329 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: So I said by goodbye him. A couple of years ago. 330 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: He stayed an extra couple of years. That's awesome. And 331 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: today he left. And while it was somewhat it was 332 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: emotional at times, it wasn't other times. I get what's 333 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: going on.

He'd beat Ohio State twice, won last year. 517 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,439 Speaker 1: Everything was looking fine, and now you look at his 518 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 1: career and he gave it away, and I just can't. 519 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: It really is hard for me my to understand how 520 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: guys that have this kind of of opportunity and have 521 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: this kind of professional life when they're in the top 522 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: one tenth of one percent of what they do, and 523 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: they wind up blowing up and doing and doing themselves in. 524 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: I still I can't get over that. That's that still 525 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 1: happens to so many people that can't figure things out 526 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: and can't handle success. Because all Searon mooreri has had 527 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: has been success. Now, did he win this year? No? 528 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: Did he keep the team in contention all the way through? 529 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? 530 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: Did he maybe have the right guy a quarterback? 531 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 6: Yeah? 532 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, Underwood, maybe not, maybe not the guy 533 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: they thought he was. But still Michigan won nine games 534 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: going to a big Bowl game that you know, the 535 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: NFL talent is coming back in flowing through. It's a 536 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: great program again, and now here it is. And he's 537 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: lost at all because he couldn't handle success and the 538 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: power that he wound up getting went to his head 539 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: and he wound up getting out of control. Now, maybe 540 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: maybe I would wind up falling victor to that power too, 541 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: if all of a sudden I'm put in position of Hey, 542 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: you're the head coach of the biggest uh one of 543 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: the biggest schools in the country, and all of a sudden 544 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: people are fawning all over you, and you have that 545 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: sense of power when you walk into a room. I'd 546 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: like to think I know how to handle it. Maybe 547 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: I don't, but wow, imagine the dig Oh man, hey 548 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: you want to be yes, big Mac? Where where a 549 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: big back? 550 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 3: What room? 551 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 1: What room do you need to go to for a 552 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 1: big Mac? Yeah, I'm there, I'm there, I'm there. I'd 553 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: like to think I'd be able to handle Maybe not, 554 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: but you would. And when when I see this, I go, 555 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 1: how do you? How do you give this away? I mean, 556 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: I couldn't I couldn't get away from that today. 557 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 4: Mike, rationality sometimes rolls out the door. I mean, it's 558 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 4: sometimes best expressed as we often look to uh our 559 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 4: muses and music. I'll look to pop superstars and actress 560 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 4: Selena Gomez. The heart wants what it wants, uh uh 561 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 4: uh uh uh. 562 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 563 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 4: So it's you have no idea, and you know behind 564 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 4: the scenes, I don't pretend to know the man's relationships 565 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 4: or or those statuses. 566 00:26:59,560 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: Here. 567 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 4: He's fired with cause, so you know, whatever the investigation 568 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 4: has yielded, there's there's certainly a lot of details, even 569 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 4: this being detained by the police. Very sketch, you know, 570 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 4: we've got a very pencil sketch with it, with a 571 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 4: lot of blank space on the canvas right now. In 572 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 4: terms of where this story goes, you feel for the family, 573 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 4: for those associated you know, and friends and colleagues. And 574 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 4: he's the guy that had to wear a bunch of 575 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 4: the suspension stuff during the time at Michigan. Doesn't mean 576 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 4: that you know, off the Connor Stallion stuff. It's always 577 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 4: the question of who knew what when, howeer and everything else. 578 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 4: But yeah, great power, great responsibility. Obviously the steward of 579 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 4: a huge brand. The Underwood side of thing is interesting 580 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 4: because immediately you start seeing all the missives from all 581 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 4: sorts of schools where you have gotten new coaches or 582 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 4: maybe a quarterback who's getting. 583 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: Ready to leave. 584 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 4: Hey, you should go get Underwood now because it open, right, 585 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 4: the portal opens, because the coat, not that it's ever 586 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 4: closed really, but you get that extra piece if a 587 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 4: coach gets fired or or leaves of their own accord. 588 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 4: So you have that swirling in the background. Nine and 589 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 4: three seasons, still pretty strong. You know, you lost the 590 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 4: game that everybody points to, right, you'd won the last 591 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 4: couple against Ohio State, and then this year not so, 592 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 4: you know, timing is is curious how quickly this comes 593 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 4: to the bear right after a season. And at this 594 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 4: point it's a lot of speculation. But we see men 595 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 4: and women of great power and repute felled all across 596 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 4: the business and sports landscape with some regularity. 597 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: It's the human condition, right, you know. 598 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 4: We you never know what's going on behind someone's closed 599 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 4: doors that lead to such things. And you know, the 600 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 4: old he want you want to judge and throw stones, 601 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 4: you know, look inward, have a little bit of grace. 602 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 4: But for this one certainly will wait on more details, 603 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 4: right it Like it's just a lot of wow, what 604 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 4: happened and how and what because you've got a lot 605 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 4: of pictures and a lot of theories of what, how, 606 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 4: where and everything else going out there without a lot 607 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 4: of backing to it at this point. 608 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: You know, I always think about this. It's very rare 609 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: that I remember certain advice I get in life in 610 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: my career about certain things, because sometimes people say stuff 611 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: just to say stuff, right, like, you know, like oh 612 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: you think this? Do you really think that? Or did 613 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: you read that somewhere like on a calendar. But early 614 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,239 Speaker 1: on in my radio career, one host that I used 615 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: to talk to a lot said to me, he said, 616 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: you know, you will find in your career you will 617 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: get more opportunities because of people who blow up in 618 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: front of you than you will on your own talent. 619 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: Just watch you watch how people just can't handle the 620 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: success that they have. You will get more opportunities because 621 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: of that. And sure enough, I've seen that so many 622 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: times people that can't handle success or or are only 623 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: happy when they're miserable, and they wind up finding their 624 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: way out because they don't know how to act.

One of the big 762 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:12,720 Speaker 1: byproducts of Notre Dame getting left out of the college 763 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: football Playoff was that, trust me, they couldn't come together 764 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: this year. Somehow the different conferences on a sixteen team playoff. 765 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: Even though you need a sixteen team playoff to solve 766 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: the issue of what do you do with teams who'se 767 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: third losses in the conference championship game? It needs to 768 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: be more. You gotta get to sixteen. That's gonna be 769 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: a thing. With Notre Dame getting left out, We are 770 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: going to sixteen teams next year. It is an absolute certainty. 771 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: Watch how smooth it is. It's not even gonna be 772 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 1: a discussion. It's gonna be sixteen sixteen orange whip orange 773 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,839 Speaker 1: of orange at sixteen shoes. Still, okay, great, we're going 774 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: We're going to sixteen teams. It'll be that after they 775 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: couldn't do it this year for whatever stupid reason they 776 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: couldn't figure it out, it will magically happen next year. 777 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: That was on Monday. Now, what do we know that's 778 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: come up? Brett, your big twelve commissioner says, yeah, sixteen 779 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: team playoff? Okay, he wants more teams in today. ACC 780 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 1: Commissioner Jim Phillips said, yeah, we need a sixteen team playoff. Quote. 781 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: They're such hard ache get that cut line right now. 782 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: And what I would say is my barometer about what's 783 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: enough and what's not enough is if you're leaving teams 784 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: out of the playoff that could win a national championship, 785 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: then you don't have the right number. Again, we're going 786 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: to sixteen teams for next year. It's happening everybody because 787 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 1: again they're not doing this because oh you have this 788 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: elect more teams from the ACC, and this elect more 789 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: teams of the big twelve in the SEC and the 790 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 1: big ten are gonna say.

Yeah, we're okay with sixteen teams, 796 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 1: but we are gonna get sixteen teams next year. It 797 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: is an absolute certainty. 798 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 4: So when Phillips was talking, were we able to surmise 799 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 4: whether we were channeling the other guys and Samuel L. 800 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 4: Jackson what he says, take my hand dot dot dot 801 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 4: and work your mouth like a puppet, because I think 802 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:12,919 Speaker 4: that's kind of where we're at in this, Like, Hey, 803 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 4: this is how I make Bovakua like me again. Getting 804 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 4: Tom Cruise to send him one of those cup coconut 805 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 4: cakes isn't gonna be enough. We're gonna need a little 806 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 4: bit more. We're gonna need to smooth this over. So 807 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 4: he stops holding his breath. He's turning blue in the 808 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 4: corner at this point, crying about this circumstance. So yeah, 809 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 4: you need to go and you become the mouthpiece.

This game's over right. I could. Of course 861 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,320 Speaker 1: it did, because I'm I'm that guy.

I was the 864 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,479 Speaker 1: only one that watched that game. So I had great 865 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: points last night that we talked about because of it. 866 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: But I knew how it was gonna end. Not wasting 867 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: my energy on that. I knew how that was gonna go. 868 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 1: Come on, man, Syracuse had a better start against Notre 869 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: Dame than the Jets had. Against Miami on Sunday, and 870 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: that's saying something. 871 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 4: You run those in parallel. It's a torture torture show, 872 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 4: you know, kind of like the ACC Network rerunning Notre 873 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 4: Dame Miami repeatedly. 874 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 1: So before you endo a big story that's being broadcast 875 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: on TV tonight. Look, we're talking a lot about the 876 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: Sean Moore situation. Fired as Michigan head coach. He was 877 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: found by Michigan to be a suspect and alleged assault 878 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,319 Speaker 1: after he was fired for an inappropriate relationship with a 879 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: staff member. Now there's lots of different things happening at 880 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: this hour. I assume by this time tomorrow we will 881 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: know a lot more details. Lots of stuff floating around 882 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 1: the internet right now. But a few minutes ago we 883 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: started talking about who the next head coach at Michigan 884 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 1: might be. I gave you Jesse Minter or Nate Pergatzi, 885 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: either one. They've never been seen in separately. Frostburg is 886 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: gonna lose his defensive coordinator. He was there at Michigan, 887 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,320 Speaker 1: he was the DC when they won the national title. 888 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: He went with Harbaugh to the Chargers. But harm you 889 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:36,399 Speaker 1: got somebody too, You think it'd be a great one. 890 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think old Mivakua could be in trouble because 891 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 4: there might be more chaos. How about a guy with 892 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 4: a contract through twenty thirty that by my math only 893 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 4: accounts for maybe sixty million dollars, that's in dropping the bucket. 894 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 4: You got a lums that can drop that at Michigan. 895 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 4: I'm talking Marcus Freeman. Yeah, currently minus two hundred to 896 00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,760 Speaker 4: be the next head coach of your New York Football Giants. 897 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 4: But we've watched framan I leave the Irish what is he? 898 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 4: Forty three and twelve overall, had the glorious run a 899 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 4: year ago. He's a guy that has been part of 900 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 4: the politicking and lobbying the stuff. 901 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: All right. 902 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,800 Speaker 4: He was part of the uh the Today Show last 903 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 4: week even talking about his team and what they're doing. 904 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 4: So from Michigan, go swing for the fences. He's your 905 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 4: best guy that you can go and poach and you know, 906 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 4: make Mabaqua have to go and cry about, you know, 907 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 4: the the coaching cycle and how it's all unfair and whatever. 908 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but can you poach him like the Giants 909 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 1: can poach him clearly, And the Giants, I'm sure they 910 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: had the fifty million dollars for the buyout for Marcus Freeman. Yeah, 911 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: but like is leaving Notre Dame to coach Michigan? Is 912 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 1: that a big step up? 913 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 4: It's not a matter of a big step up. Is 914 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 4: a matter of a clearer path with a con deference 915 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 4: with the resources that they have that you know, certainly 916 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 4: Notre Dame does, and they've got their NBC deal and 917 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 4: everything else. But you know when and again this comes 918 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 4: out of the ad victimhood kind of stances with Michigan. 919 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 4: You've got a much clearer path as things stands. Now, 920 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 4: does that mean that things don't change at Notre Dame 921 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 4: with how they operate? We already have the may well, 922 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 4: you have assurances if you're in the top twelve again 923 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 4: that you'll you'll get in. Okay, that's all fine and good, 924 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,959 Speaker 4: but Michigan rivalries the big ten. 925 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: I'd say you go and start fishing. Now. Is he 926 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: a guy that stays forever? Sure? 927 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 4: Perhaps he's that guy, But but it would I rather 928 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 4: go to the the NFL and the Giants. Maybe maybe 929 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 4: that's the aspiration. Never know what's on a man's heart. 930 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,959 Speaker 1: I just I feel like there's more, even though Notre 931 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: Dame got left out of the playoff this year. There's 932 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,120 Speaker 1: more in the way at Michigan because by the what 933 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: you're trying to get by Ohio State every year. 934 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, you're not trying to get passed off Bio State 935 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 4: or yeah, all this, I get it. 936 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: Who do you have to You don't have to get 937 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 1: past that many teams at Notre Dame. You're Notre Dame, right, 938 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 1: I know you got left out this year and that 939 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 1: was bad. And now whatever changes we have, Notre Dame 940 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:19,439 Speaker 1: is not gonna get left out again because we're Notre Dame. Yeah, 941 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit tougher. So I think 942 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,839 Speaker 1: it's the path of more resistance. Actually at Michigan trying 943 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: to get through Now, you got to get through Indiana. 944 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: You know, if you're miss if you're gonna spend money, Hey, 945 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 1: Kurt Signetti's buyout is only fifteen million dollars.

How would you like one hundred and 949 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 1: fifty million dollars to come coach at Michigan? How long 950 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:44,719 Speaker 1: are you going to keep that going? In Indiana for 951 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: come on, Kurt, come here. I just like the potential 952 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: of the chaos. The Signetti's even better Google me, I win. 953 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 1: I'd love to see contract negotiations with him.

But you know, the 986 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: thing is a couple of things to just talk about 987 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 1: what Stu was like a little bit because I work 988 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: with him for a long time. When he first got 989 00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 1: his big break at ESPN, when he came to ESPN 990 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 1: two to host Sports Night with Susie Kolber back in 991 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: the mid nineties, Right, this is when ESPN saying, hey, 992 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:51,200 Speaker 1: we're branching out now ESPN two is brand new. We're 993 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 1: going to put new shows on, and they put on 994 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,919 Speaker 1: the show called Sports Night, which was the flagship show 995 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 1: of ESPN two, which was basically, they're going to focus 996 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: on sports that don't get enough attention on ESPN. So 997 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 1: every show was about like, we had NHL stories, we 998 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,240 Speaker 1: did any kind of college story you could possibly want 999 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,279 Speaker 1: that we had. It's where the X game started, you know, 1000 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: bike races, Formula one, Tour de France, like, this was 1001 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 1: what Sports Night was. And Stu Scott was the and 1002 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: Stu Scott and Susie Cobber the everyday host. I worked 1003 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,840 Speaker 1: on the show with Stu for a long time, and 1004 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 1: to try to tell you what he was like in 1005 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: in in the in a way that maybe you haven't 1006 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 1: heard so far, is that Stu really was a guy 1007 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 1: who turns out to be ahead of his time. The 1008 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: person that he was. You look at him and say, man, 1009 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: he is the conduit that got people to some of 1010 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: enjoy some of the careers that they have right now, 1011 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 1: right you go back, I go back to that line 1012 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: of Moneyball when John Henry wants to hire Billy Bean. 1013 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 1: He says, hey, Billy, I know you're taking the teeth 1014 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 1: out there.

And 1018 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: you know, Stue comes to ESPN in the mid nineties 1019 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 1: and he, you know, all of a sudden, here's an 1020 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:14,359 Speaker 1: African American sportscaster who was anchoring one of the big 1021 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: shows at ESPN.
