Michael barn I'm Scarlett Phil. You know, 16 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: Mike Lynch got a lot of topics to talk about today. 17 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna start. Oh my, the Jerry West story. It 18 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: just continues to give. The story that keeps on giving 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: as it's been told. According now to Mr West, he 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: said he was thinking of doing this and now he said, 21 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: you know what, I am I am sick and tired 22 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: of this. You will take this all the way to 23 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court if he has to, Scarlett, because he 24 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: doesn't like the way that the HBO show Winning Time portrays. 25 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: He's not the only one. A lot of the other 26 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: l A Lakers stars are not too happy with the depiction, 27 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: but they've also said that they haven't watched the series. 28 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: The TV show Lynchy and Bar is meant to chronicle 29 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: the success, the rise, and the success of the l 30 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: A Lakers in the nineteen eighties, Magic Johnson, the rivalry 31 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: with the Boston Celtics, and it's fictionalized, but it's also 32 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: kind of historical fiction because it's obviously rooted in real 33 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: things and real people, and it's highly entertaining. And Jerry West, 34 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: who I didn't know anything about until I saw the show, 35 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: is a really interesting character. I had no idea that 36 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: he's the silhouette of the nba A logo Lynchy. But 37 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: he has not spoken out really about the depiction of 38 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: his character or of him on the show until now, 39 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: and he's considering legal action as a result. Well. He 40 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: says he's going to take it all the way to 41 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. If if he has to and he 42 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: wants a retraction, he wants an apology, he wants damages. 43 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 1: And in any of these things we know, we've seen, 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 1: We've covered a thousand of these things, there really has 45 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: to be a proof of malice, and what is their 46 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: proof of malice by HBO? And HBO says that they 47 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: have researched a lot of these characters, and but Kareem 48 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: Abdul Jabbar, Jamal Wilkes and many of the players that 49 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: served under Jebry West say that it's an inaccurate portrayal. 50 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: They portrayal as a guy who drinks a lot, a 51 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: guy who's incompetent and basically deeply unhappy, very unhappy, very 52 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: depressed all the time. He did suffer through the depression. 53 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: We know that he did have an irregular heartbeat, he 54 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: had a trial fibrillation in real life, and did have 55 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: an oblation to cure it. But all his people close 56 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: to him said that he was I think Kareem labeled 57 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: that he They portray m as widely coyote, a cartoon character, 58 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: and they say it's very unfair and very inaccurate. Winning Time, 59 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: by the way produced by HBO, has made clear that 60 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: it's not a documentary, and it's not trying to say 61 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: that it's a documentary either. But the problem is you're 62 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: using the real names of real people, and that right there, 63 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: I wonder is that the problem. If you went into 64 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: the show and you turn the Jerry West character instead 65 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: into and here's Dash rip Rock and now you do 66 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: the show, you're not gonna have a problem. But when 67 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,839 Speaker 1: you use a person's real name, I'm wondering if that's 68 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: going to be the sticking point in a lot of this. 69 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: We'll see if any legal action is actually taken. I'm 70 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: waiting to see the you know, the HBO dramatization of 71 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business of sports and who's gonna say, Michael Barr 72 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: and now that comes across Yeah, well then then you 73 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: will get the real drinking and incompetent I you know, 74 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: that's the problem I've gotten. I haven't seen the show, 75 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: so I I can't comment on it about what how 76 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: the show is. I heard it can be pretty coarse 77 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 1: at some points, which I'm amazed. I haven't jumped on 78 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: the TV to watch this yet, But again I have 79 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: to be fair, I haven't seen it, but you guys 80 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: have seen it. And you say the show is interesting, 81 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: it's highly entertaining. It's it's um. I mean, I like 82 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: it because it's kind of throwback and the way they 83 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: shoot it it looks kind of grainy, um, like it 84 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: took place in the early eighties. Yeah, it does. And 85 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: it's it's good. It's very very well done. I mean, 86 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: if you're a real stickler, you know you can say, well, 87 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: this is really isn't the Boston Garden. This really isn't 88 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: the Englewood Forum, but it's it's close enough, and the 89 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: uniforms are real, and you know, I'm sure they have 90 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: to pay all kinds of fees to get to use 91 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: the actual Lakers uniforms, and it's pretty cool. But the 92 00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: main characters are Jerry Buss, Jerry West, Magic Care Team, 93 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: pat Riley is coming through the He's going to emerge 94 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: right now, and then it's all going to end when 95 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: Magic Johnson test positive for HIV. That was actually the 96 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: opening scene to episode numbers. Well, they keep talking about 97 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: a season two as well, so I mean, I don't 98 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: know how whether they continue to take it on past 99 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: that or how they're going to do everything. But there's 100 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: a lot of it that's clearly uh, dramatized and fictionalized, 101 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: including UM one stretch after Jack McKinney, the head coach, 102 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: had an accident and was not able to coach and 103 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: the team was kind of reeling, which never actually happened, right, Lynch. 104 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 1: I mean there's this UM sequence where they go to 105 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: what Indiana, Detroit, and then Boston and lost all these games. 106 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: Not in Boston they ended their losing streak there, but 107 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: that never happened. Well, they didn't want up a spoiler alert. 108 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: They're gonna wind up winning the NBA Championship under past sorry, 109 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: so Jason Siegel was going to have uh, he'll be 110 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: happy for part of it. They won't be happy in 111 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: the in the following year after they win the NBA title. 112 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: We got there's another story and it has been in 113 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: the news. The New York Yankees, they revealed the letter. 114 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: It was about sign stealing, let's call it minor transgressions. 115 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: But Scarlett, we kind of already knew this. This happened 116 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: during the first half of the sixteen season, and apparently 117 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: the Yankees were using their video replay room to do 118 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: code signs and then relay that information to the dugout. 119 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: So I guess it's a little bit more high tech 120 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 1: than using banging trash cans and a lot quieter. To 121 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: keep in mind, you're saying, well, look what happened to 122 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: the Astros and the guy's got general manager, and the 123 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: manager lost his job and guys were suspended for a year. Uh. 124 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: Sign stealing didn't become illegal in Major League Baseball two 125 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: after seventeen, So what the yanchores were doing in fifteen 126 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: and half of was legal, and they weren't fine for 127 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: sign stealing. They were fine for improper use of a telephone. Now, 128 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: the telephone is only supposed to be used to say 129 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: should we go to a replay a Nuto or replay? 130 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: And they were using it fas improper use of the toe. 131 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: It's like catching the mob on something like mail fraud. 132 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: That's that al Capone moment, and we got you for 133 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: tax evasion, dude, But I mean it look and and 134 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: Lyndsey said it. The best is that, you know, sign 135 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: stealing has been around for many years. The thing that 136 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: tickled me, to be honest, when the Astros did it 137 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: and they're banging on some bag on trash can, how 138 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: in the world did you think you were not going 139 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: to get noticed when you're banging on a trash can. 140 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: It's really noisy at the stadium, you know, between the 141 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: like make some noise and everybody clap your hands. I mean, 142 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: like there's a lot going on there. How how they 143 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: managed to hear the banging trash cans through all that noise, 144 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: I'm pretty amazed. I was at some of those games 145 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: and I never heard of it. And I walked behind 146 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: the dugout and I, you know, I the very time 147 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: I go to a new stadium, I kind of like 148 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm a tourist. I walk around and try to look 149 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: at everything, and never heard it, never saw it. Can 150 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: you imagine if you stealing signs and you got a 151 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: voo boo zella and you're trying and you're blowing on 152 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: the voo boo Zella's man, and all of a sudden, 153 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, alright, this is gonna be down and 154 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: inside this is gonna be a good. Stealing signs at 155 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: that point is like more trouble than it's worth. Speaking 156 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: of more trouble than it's worth. But I guess it's 157 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: working for the Boston Red Sox. Is how the Red 158 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: Sox are playing in Toronto, and I gotta be honest, Lunchy, 159 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: I didn't know about this, uh until you mentioned it 160 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: just before the show. You gotta tell the story. Well, 161 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 1: here's the deal. The Red Sox manager Alex Corp tested 162 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: positive before the team went down to St. Petersburg to 163 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: play Tampa, so he did not make the trip to Tampa. 164 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: And after Tampa, they flew to Toronto for a big 165 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: game against the Blue Jays, which is where they are 166 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: right now. Two Red Sox players, Tanner Hawke and cut 167 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: Her Crawford of Pictures, they are not vaccinated. They were 168 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: not allowed to go to Canada. They were left behind 169 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: so they could not pitch. They have Chris Sale who 170 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: is not vaccinated, but he is on the disabled list 171 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: right now. So the Red Sox flew into Toronto. Here's 172 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: the problem though, coming back there, they're scheduled to fly 173 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: to Baltimore for a series with the Orioles. You need 174 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: a negative test to get on an airplane and fly 175 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 1: out of Canada. The Red Sox are so fearful that 176 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: if someone tests positive they would have to stay in 177 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: Canada for fourteen days that they are getting on a 178 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: bus because when you cross the border via bus, you 179 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: don't have to have a negative test. So they're gonna 180 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,559 Speaker 1: bust across Niagara Falls, look at the Maid of the Mist. 181 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: Then they're gonna go to Buffalo Airport and get on 182 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: a plane and fly to Baltimore. Thus bypassing all the 183 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: regulations in the chance that someone could be detained for 184 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,719 Speaker 1: two weeks in Canada for testing positive, and guess what, 185 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: in Buffalo, they can get on the plane and not 186 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: wear any masks. Because if that needs to happen anymore, correct, 187 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: correct the mundo. I see. I know this is a 188 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 1: serious thing about COVID, but this is pretty ingenious the 189 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: red side. I mean, yeah, listen, many times obviously Native 190 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: Detroit dere i I crossed the border many times taking 191 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: the Ambassador Bridge. Now you gotta go through customs though, 192 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: So are they gonna have a problem with that? Have 193 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: they had a problem? Apparently the Blue Jays are doing 194 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: this as well, because last year the Blue Jays played 195 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: the majority of their games and their spring training headquarters, 196 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: and they played some games in Buffalo as well. So 197 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: you canna remember the Blue Jays are coming coming in 198 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: and out of the country all the time, and when 199 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: they come into the country, they fly when they come 200 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: out of the country. They're doing the same thing. They're 201 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: busting across Niagara Falls and going to Buffalo and then 202 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: they get on a chatter and go wherever the headed. 203 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: See they could just I wonder if they could go 204 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: just like travel baseball, you know, let's throwback like I 205 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: kind of like it. Man. It's like, you know, what 206 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: about a train? Could they take a train? I don't 207 00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: know if one is available. I know what's about a 208 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: two hour stride from Toronto to the Buffalo Airport. See. 209 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: I bring up the train story if anybody y'all want 210 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: some history. I'm not gonna go into the story, but 211 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: about Babe Ruth on the train and yeah, and did 212 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 1: we see that? That's that's That's all I'm gonna say. 213 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 1: And go look it up on Google about Babe Ruth 214 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: and the train story.
