Oh and the World Baseball 43 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 1: Classic is around the corner. The people that Major League 44 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: Baseball hope you watch that they plan on piggybacking off 45 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: the Olympics. The Winter Olympics is that will wind down 46 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: soon and then the World Baseball Classic will start up. 47 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: In the meantime. The only real stories that are coming 48 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: out of spring training are people getting hurt and complaining 49 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: about the other side. The players are complaining about the owners. 50 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: The owners are complaining about the players, and you are 51 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: in the middle. Now the latest we go to Cleveland. 52 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: We'll start out there Cleveland spring training camp in the 53 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: Cactus League, where the rhetoric is getting cranked up for 54 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: baseball's civil war. And if you've not been following the 55 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: latest development, So the Cleveland baseball team, which is named 56 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: after a bridge, that it changed their name. The Wokester's 57 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: demanded they changed their name, and so the Wolkester's won 58 00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: and the team's called the Guardians named after a bridge anyway, 59 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: that's what they're named after. The Guardian Bridge in Cleveland. 60 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: So the GM, Mike Churnoff, I believe is the gentleman's name, 61 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: and he explained this week the importance of scouting and 62 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: development for the Cleveland baseball team given the financial constraints, 63 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: a real hardship story here. He said that quote, we 64 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: can't meaning as a small market team, we can't sign 65 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: top tier free agents. It's just impossible with the economic 66 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:37,119 Speaker 1: landscape in baseball. Booooooo, the GM said, Now this comes 67 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: days after the most powerful man in baseball. You know 68 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: who the most powerful man in baseball is? You know? 69 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: No it's not Rob Manford, No, no, no, Scott Boris. 70 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: Scott Boris is the guy's name. So the agent, now, 71 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: Scott Boris explained that every MLB team can afford one 72 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: to two top level free agents, said everyone. And that 73 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: is a good jumping off point. So let us discuss 74 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: the question. You've got the Guardian GM again, Mike Churnoff, 75 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: I believe it is the gentleman's name who says it's 76 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: just impossible. It is just impossible with the economic landscape 77 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: to sign top free agents. Would you translate all of 78 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: this these cryptic messages for the regular guy. So I've 79 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: got my observations, jumpbo sized junior high school, and three stooges, 80 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: and we'll combine these together. We'll go and put them 81 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: in order and play Connect three. And I have never 82 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: lost Connect three. I don't lose Connect three. I'm not 83 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: planning on losing Connect three right now. I'm certainly not 84 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: gonna lose to you. That's not gonna happen. Now, let's 85 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: see here, number wa I said, number one number all right. 86 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: So the GM guy Mike churnoff the Cleveland GM again, 87 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: saying it's impossible. It's impossible to add a big name 88 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: free agent. It's like they're trying to split the atom. 89 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: Is all. 90 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: My god, it's impossible. It's my god. And to that, 91 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: I stretch, and I yawn stretch. I said, come on, well, 92 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: you're waiting for that Eureka moment playing the small market 93 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,119 Speaker 1: card from the bottom of the deck, right, And this 94 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: is jumbo sized propaganda. You don't have to go up 95 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: to thirty thousand feet and look down. You don't need 96 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: a telescope to look up. It's jumbo sized propaganda. It's 97 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: weaponized poverty, and they're lining it up. It's the battle 98 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: for the hearts. Minds and souls of the consumers that 99 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: people that care about baseball, and that would be you, 100 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: unless you don't really care about baseball, and then you 101 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: don't matter, no hard feelings. So this is all pre 102 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: lockout nonsense. It's a sob story tour every sad sack 103 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: team in baseball. It happens, every labor negotiation, everyone, everyone, 104 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: And I was there, I mean as a young young 105 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: lad back in the day when they lost an entire postseason. 106 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: There was no World Series in the nineties one year 107 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: because of a work stoppage that happened and swallowed up 108 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: the season. In the beginning of the following season, they 109 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: even had replacement players. It was a big mess back 110 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: in the day. And this kind of stuff, the war 111 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: of words, happens now. The owner of the Cleveland baseball team, 112 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: the Dolan family, Paul Dolan, is worth four or five billion, 113 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: depending on where you look, and either way that's pretty good. 114 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: Either way, that's pretty good. And so we're supposed to 115 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: believe here that they just have no path to even 116 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: adding one free agent in Cleveland. Just more grumbling about 117 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: the boogeyman, who the Boogeyman, the big blue Boogeymon all 118 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, the evil Dodgers. A right, they're distorting everything. 119 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's so great. God is it great? 120 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: You all hate the Dodgers. It's too hard, it's too 121 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: doll my god. They're wicked. The Dodgers are wicked. And 122 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: to that, I say, bravo. You have just outed yourself. 123 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: You've stepped out of the closet. You're a loser, complete 124 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: and total loser. You have no fighting spirit, no fighting spirit, 125 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: and you know, just sit there like a scared turtle. Uh, 126 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: scared turtle. Right. Major League Baseball right now is ratcheting 127 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,599 Speaker 1: up the rhetoric here in what are we supposed to 128 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: have a GoFundMe for the boys at the yacht club? 129 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: Is that what we're supposed to do here, the owners 130 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: at the yacht club? Is that how we do this here? 131 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: And so you the fan, you buy the merch, you 132 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: buy the tickets, and you hand them, you hand them 133 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: your time. Most valuable thing you have is your time, 134 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: and they give you a flea ridden roster. So I 135 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: believe it is not impossible to add a free agent 136 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: if you're a team like Cleveland. It is just inconvenient. 137 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: And rich dudes hate being inconvenience. They can't stand it. 138 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: So rather than be inconvenience, they'll just convince dumb people 139 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: that they need to have a salary cap all right. 140 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: And these are the same people who if their boss said, listen, 141 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: we were gonna cut your salary, would you be okay 142 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: with that? Would you just okay? 143 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 2: Sure? 144 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: Why not? No, you shouldn't be now Page two, keeping 145 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: the drum beat going of the Hour of Discontent here 146 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: on the Ben Malor Show. So the question is this, 147 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 1: do you have any advice? Do you have any advice 148 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: for the robber barons of baseball to win this labor 149 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: dispute against the player? Now we'll be talking about this 150 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: for the next year and a half. I don't want 151 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: to spend all of my bullets on this, but I'll 152 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: spend some bullets on this today because I think it's 153 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: interesting considering all of the stories that are bouncing around here, 154 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: and the bar is pretty low. The bar is pretty low. 155 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: But do you have any advice? Now, if you have 156 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: paid attention in previous episodes of this show, you know 157 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: I am on the side of no cap. I am 158 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: a no capper, no capper. I believe in no cap 159 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: and While I find many of these pompous, coddled, spoiled 160 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 1: Braddy baseball players annoying, I still support them. I still 161 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: support them. Now, what would it take for me to 162 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: do a one eighty? What would it take to do 163 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: a one to eighty and go the other way and say, 164 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: I'm in that purple area. I could go either way 165 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: as a voter. Where what would it take for me 166 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: to go to the other side? So I'm glad you asked. 167 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: I have activated the Mather Think Tank. So this is 168 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: what it would take. My advice to the tycoons of 169 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: baseball if you want to win my vote. And I'm 170 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: clearly on the side of the players. All right, you 171 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: know this big food fight we're going to have between 172 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: the ownership class and the union. This is a radical 173 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: concept and I guarantee you if you can do this, 174 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: I'm in I'm on your side. I will pull for 175 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: the owners. Stop hiding the books, right, You're hiding it 176 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: like it's the kernel's secret recipe, the eleven herbs and spices. 177 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: Stop if you truly believe that your sport is broken, 178 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: and all these pathetic stories about poverty this and poverty 179 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: that for the billionaires and if you really want a salarycap, 180 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: that's fine. Let's go back to junior high junior high school. 181 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: Open book test, open book test. What does that mean? 182 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: That means you don't have to show me, but show 183 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: the players. Open the books up, show the profit and 184 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 1: loss statements, Itemize the revenue, itemize the expenses, the creative 185 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: accounting that you've been doing, and all that stuff. Let 186 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: the players bring their own calculators, their own being counters. 187 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: And if the sport of baseball is truly gasping for air, 188 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: which you have all bitched about for fifty years or longer, 189 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: just prove it. That's it. It should be easy. Does 190 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: anyone dis why would that be a problem? Seriously, why 191 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: would that be a problem. Don't give us the George W. 192 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: Bush line from back in the day, fuzzy math and 193 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: wrapped in a press release. Listen, even as I understand 194 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: the hungry puppies, the pathetic loser franchises that have been 195 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: competent ownership, like the Pirates and Tampa Bay and the 196 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: what are the Sacramento They want to be called Sacramento 197 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: and embarrassed by Sacramento. The Athletics somehow managed to turn 198 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: operating profits while crying right into their champagne crying. So 199 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: the point is this is not a soup kitchen. It's 200 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: a cartel of coupon code con men, is what it is, 201 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: pleading poverty from their luxury mansions and their homes and 202 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: the luxury boxes and all that. So if you're broken, 203 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: you truly are broken. This is it. It should be 204 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: rather easy you have Why would you not do it? 205 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,719 Speaker 1: Just let everyone see, let everyone see how broken your 206 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: business is. And as I have followed this over the years, 207 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: there has always been a conga line of billionaires ready 208 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: to grab the next available franchise, like it's the last 209 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: lobster role at a Hampton's clam bake. They just have 210 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: to get their hands on it. And so until you 211 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: are willing to do that, I don't care how many 212 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: useful idiots you find in the media and how many 213 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: low information fans support you. Spare me the violin music 214 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: if that's where you are financially. And maybe it is transparency. 215 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: I want that. And then again, you're not going to 216 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: you're not giving this out to the public. You're allowing 217 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: the union to look at it, and they will look 218 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: at everything, and they will look at the numbers and 219 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: all that, and if you're not being a bunch of 220 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: sleeves balls, Okay, I don't need the crocodile tears. I'm done. 221 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: That said, we do have one more crocodile tiers story here, 222 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: the final part of this Mathed monologue. We pivot out 223 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: of Minnesota. So I read a story here claiming that 224 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Twins. That's a baseball team, not a good one. 225 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: Where have you gone, Kirby Pucket? My god? Anyway, the 226 00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: Twins are having major financial problems, new shortfalls. It's another 227 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: tiny Violin story. So they highlighted in a story that 228 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: was conveniently leaked to one of the business publications. I 229 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: wonder who leaked it. I wonder who linked it. Anyway, 230 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: the Twins baseball team claiming that while they did have 231 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: a cable TV deal, it was worth almost fifty five 232 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: million in twenty twenty three with what used to be 233 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: called the Bally's Sports Group. In twenty twenty three, and 234 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: because of some bankruptcy, that deal fell apart, and the 235 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: Twins decided, you know what we're gonna do. We're gonna 236 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: go direct to consumer. Direct to consumer Baseball encouraged it. 237 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: They said you don't need cable television. Just listen, do 238 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: it on your own. Okay, we'll start this little Fugeese 239 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: Twins TV thing. Okay, we'll do that. You're no problem. 240 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: So I bring this up because the owner, Tom Pollad, 241 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: in a story that was in one of the business 242 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: publications as we, claimed that the Twins are projected to 243 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: have in a state with the millions and millions of people, 244 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: the Twins are projected to have. How many people purchase 245 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: a subscription for ninety nine dollars to watch a season 246 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: of morbid baseball from the Minnesota Twins. You want to 247 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: take a guess on that this is the Great Divide, 248 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: by the way, we're going to cross the Great Divide. 249 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: All right, so you got a number in your head, 250 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: Good job by you. The owner of the Twins claimed 251 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: that they are going to have this season, they're projected 252 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: to have fifty thousand. That's it, fifty thousand people pay 253 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: ninety nine dollars a game to watch a horrifically terrible 254 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: baseball team. That works out to four point nine million 255 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: dollars in revenue. Of course, you have to factor in 256 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: that there's some production costs in that a net loss 257 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: of close to fifty million. Now they can sell some advertising, 258 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: so they make some money back on that, but the 259 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 1: gap is rather large. The gap is rather large as 260 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: you bounce around the numbers. So the question what do 261 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: you make of the latest SOB story from baseball The 262 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: Twins claiming they have just fifty thousand subscribers and therefore 263 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: fifty thousand viewers for their TV broadcast in twenty twenty six. 264 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: So this was again an sl A strategic leak. The Twinkies. 265 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: They're claiming they went from fifty four point eight million 266 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: and that's the size of Lake Superior, and now they've 267 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: got a couple of nickels they tossed into the kiddie 268 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: pool instead of Lake Superiors. That's where we are. So 269 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: I know everyone in the luth is like, well, Lake 270 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: Superior is better than the kiddie pool. So let's call 271 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: this what it is. It's friendly fire. It's a self 272 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: inflicted wound major League Baseball, the hubris of Major League Baseball. 273 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: They poked themselves in the eye three Stooges style and said, yet, 274 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: direct to consume, direct to consumer, that's the future. That 275 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: is a choice. That is a choice. Going from a 276 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: casino with house money to shaking a coffee can at 277 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 1: a red light. That's a choice. And here's the dirty 278 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 1: little secret. The Twins aren't even trying to win. And 279 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: they're like an NBA team. I don't know what they're 280 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: tanking for. They're not trying to win, and so it's 281 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: not muscy TV. And I had mentioned this in most markets, 282 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: only a sliver of cable consumers were actually even watching 283 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: baseball or basketball on a nightly basis, oh hockey. I 284 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: had been told by people I know that are very 285 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: powerful in television that the number was around five percent 286 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 1: of people actually watching on a given night like a 287 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: Wednesday night baseball game of the people that subscribe to cable. Now, 288 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: based on the numbers, I crunched the numbers because I 289 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: have no time on my hands or nothing but time, 290 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 1: I should say. And if I don't know how accurate, 291 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: I feel like the Twins are being dishonest with that number. 292 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: Let's just say they're actually on the up and up. 293 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: That would mean in the state of Minnesota, it's zero 294 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: point eight percent of the entire population, not from one 295 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: hundred to zero point eight. And then if you just 296 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: do the twin cities of the population in Minneapolis and 297 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: Saint Paul. It would be one point three percent of 298 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: just those two areas lumped together, and that would be that. 299 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: And so this does smell a little massage, right, But 300 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: when you take away the cable television crutch and the teams, 301 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: they do look a lot less like a Fortune five 302 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: hundred titan and more like they're lining up at the 303 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: soup kitchen of sports economics. And this is a whole 304 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: new world here, right, and everything's set up. All of 305 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: the content tracts are set up based on the cable 306 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: TV money, and so that's something they're going to have 307 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: to figure out. But again, if this is really reality, 308 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: then just open up the books and I'm sure you 309 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: can figure out something with the players.

Both if The phillies end up 654 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: in third place in the, division behind The mets and 655 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 1: The Atlanta.
