<v Speaker 2>the weekend. What you saw that you liked you didn't like?

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Operator Tyler sitting by. He'll take your phone calls. Dylan

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:41.760
<v Speaker 2>will have the poll question. Today, we'll hear from Tim Kirchin,

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:46.360
<v Speaker 2>the great baseball insider, historian, reporter from the Mothership. He'll

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 2>join us in about twenty minutes from now. We'll talk

0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:53.000
<v Speaker 2>about to No one's surprised the Dodgers get Trek Skouble.

0:00:53.400 --> 0:00:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I think the surprise might have been, are you giving

0:00:56.400 --> 0:01:00.520
<v Speaker 2>up big time talent to get him? And I think

0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:04.760
<v Speaker 2>the general consensus was could other teams have done this? Probably?

0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 2>But here's the problem with that. Trek Scugble had the

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.920
<v Speaker 2>leverage by saying he wanted to go to the Dodgers

0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 2>wanted to go to the West Coast. Therefore, you took

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 2>away a lot of the leverage that maybe the Tigers

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 2>would have had of what they got in return. The

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.679
<v Speaker 2>key will be moving forward, the kind of contract Trek

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:26.160
<v Speaker 2>Scouble is going to want, And of course looming large

0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:29.959
<v Speaker 2>is is there going to be a lockout at some point?

0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Do we lose a baseball season? Do we look back

0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:36.560
<v Speaker 2>on Trek's scuoble and go That's when we finally decided

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:39.679
<v Speaker 2>we had to do something. Get a salary cap. I'm okay.

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:42.039
<v Speaker 2>If you want to do a salary cap, if you're

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>going to have a floor that's raised as well, I

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:47.840
<v Speaker 2>think you got to be fair to the amount of

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:51.360
<v Speaker 2>money that the owners are making. The players Association is

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:53.960
<v Speaker 2>going to be. If you're having a salary cap, you've

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:56.400
<v Speaker 2>got to at least raise the floor so we know

0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:58.520
<v Speaker 2>that you're going to have salaries that are at least

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:01.880
<v Speaker 2>commensurate to other teams in the league. Now, you can

0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:05.480
<v Speaker 2>spend money stupidly like the Mets did, It's not the

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers know how to do this. Organizationally, that's what separates them.

0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 2>You can have a really good minor league system. You

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 2>can also go out and spend for free agents, you

0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:19.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, trades. They've done everything, and you've got a

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:23.760
<v Speaker 2>brilliant front office who found a way to circumvent the

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:28.000
<v Speaker 2>salary cap and the rest of the baseball hierarchy here.

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.040
<v Speaker 2>So I applaud them for what they did. If I'm

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 2>a Dodger fan, that's what I want my ownership to do.

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 2>Am I worried about the rest of baseball? I guess

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:39.800
<v Speaker 2>if you said, hey, you know what, because of this,

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 2>the way your team is, this is what's going to

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:46.919
<v Speaker 2>happen in the meantime. Hey, I'm riding the merry go round.

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 2>This is great. I wonder if Shoheo Tani's injuries may

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.920
<v Speaker 2>have led to the Dodgers saying we have to have

0:02:56.120 --> 0:02:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Trek Skoubel. It's not a situation of hey, this would

0:02:59.919 --> 0:03:03.400
<v Speaker 2>be luxury item. It might be something that they truly need.

0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 2>And keep this in mind, for all the spending the

0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers had, how close did the Blue Jays come to

0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:13.920
<v Speaker 2>winning the World Series last year? When you are in

0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:17.440
<v Speaker 2>a seven game series and all it takes is one

0:03:17.520 --> 0:03:20.720
<v Speaker 2>pitcher or two pitchers to get hot, or one bat

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:22.840
<v Speaker 2>or two bats to get hot, and all of a

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 2>sudden things change. So yes, the Dodgers prohibitive favorites even

0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:31.560
<v Speaker 2>before the trade deadline. By the way, later today is

0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 2>the trade deadline. But if you're looking at World Series odds, yes,

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers are prohibitive favorites at plus one fifty, the

0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Yankees at plus six hundred. That's really it. Then it

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.120
<v Speaker 2>goes down to the Brewers at plus one thousand, the

0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 2>Braves plus one thousand, the Rays plus fourteen hundred. So yes,

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 2>is it top heavy with the Yankees and the Dodgers, Yes,

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.400
<v Speaker 2>it is. But I thought the Brewer is going to

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.760
<v Speaker 2>try to jump in. And if you put Trek Skouble

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:02.080
<v Speaker 2>with miss Rowski, look out, because then you can take

0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:05.200
<v Speaker 2>on anybody if you have two hammers like that. I

0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:09.280
<v Speaker 2>always go back to Randy Johnson and Kirk Shilling when

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 2>the Diamondbacks had them. They had hammers and you had

0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:14.520
<v Speaker 2>to deal with them. But back then, pictures were going

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:17.920
<v Speaker 2>seven to eight, maybe even nine innings. Obviously the game

0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.919
<v Speaker 2>has changed and the Dodgers, the Dodgers did what I

0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 2>thought they were going to do. I'm wondering if they're

0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:26.960
<v Speaker 2>done at the trade deadline, but we'll talk to Tim Kirchin.

0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:30.360
<v Speaker 2>He'll join us. Coming up. All right, Dylan. Poll question

0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 2>for the first hour is going to be, what, well.

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.800
<v Speaker 4>If you had to bet on the World Series winner today,

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:38.200
<v Speaker 4>are you taking the Dodgers or the field.

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:49.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll take the field. I'll take the field. I'm not

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 2>fully committed to that, but for content purposes only, I

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 2>would take the field. I just I've been around this

0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:00.279
<v Speaker 2>too long where you just see something in you go.

0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:03.159
<v Speaker 2>I didn't think that was going to happen. Now. Do

0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:06.120
<v Speaker 2>I expect the Dodgers to win, Yes, but can you

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.400
<v Speaker 2>see where something happens?

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:11.560
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, PAULI the fact that you.

0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:14.360
<v Speaker 5>Had to pause before picking the field, It's like the

0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:16.760
<v Speaker 5>field should be the pick. But the Dodgers of that

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:20.480
<v Speaker 5>threatening there, they're removing any possibility for an injury that

0:05:20.520 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 5>messes them up. They could afford them.

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And I think that's really the key that if

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:30.279
<v Speaker 2>Shoheutani can't pitch again, or they're not going to pitch him, Okay,

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 2>problem solved. I bring in Trek Scouble. They already got

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:39.039
<v Speaker 2>the line up there. They're outscoring the opposition by what's

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:40.120
<v Speaker 2>the number now, Pauli.

0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:42.480
<v Speaker 5>The Dodgers have outscored their opponents by one hundred and

0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 5>fifty runs this year. There's only two teams that are

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 5>over one hundred and five of They're always one of them.

<v Speaker 2>Dylan Possible pull questions for Hour one.

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:17.120
<v Speaker 4>A simple one. Are you in favor of a salary

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 4>cap in baseball?

0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Yes or no?

0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.680
<v Speaker 4>And does this change the Scooble to the Dodgers thing

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:23.600
<v Speaker 4>influence you in that way?

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:27.280
<v Speaker 2>I would think that everybody is going to be in

0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:30.679
<v Speaker 2>favor unless you're a Dodger fan. For the salary cap.

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.560
<v Speaker 2>The Players Association wouldn't be in favor of it. But

0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 2>I think as a sports fan, if you look at

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:39.839
<v Speaker 2>the NBA and you've had eight different winners the last

0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:43.880
<v Speaker 2>eight years, if that's what you want, instead of when

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.200
<v Speaker 2>I was growing up, you always had that team. You

0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.600
<v Speaker 2>had to beat that team. There was always the dynasty,

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 2>whether it was the UCLA Bruins or you know, I

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.360
<v Speaker 2>grew up with a big red machine. You know, there

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.039
<v Speaker 2>was the Steel Curtain. You had that team you set

0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:58.760
<v Speaker 2>your sights on and say we got to be better

0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:05.120
<v Speaker 2>than them. You might be kind of parody. Everybody has

0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:07.680
<v Speaker 2>a chance. The NFL gives you that every single year.

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.720
<v Speaker 2>So I would say most people outside of the player

0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Association and Dodger fans would be in favor of a

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:17.400
<v Speaker 2>salary cap.

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:19.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Paul, you know, like you said that, the salary

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.040
<v Speaker 5>floor has got to be more important because if you're

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 5>a Pirates fan, I just looked at the Pirate's history.

0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:28.640
<v Speaker 5>They made the postseason three times in the past thirty

0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:32.200
<v Speaker 5>three years. That's that's less than ten percent. You got

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:33.400
<v Speaker 5>to get a chance to have a chance.

0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, the Dodgers, they are now paying one hundred and

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:40.960
<v Speaker 2>eighty million dollars in luxury text that's more than twelve

0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 2>total team's entire payroll. So there is a problem with that.

0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:55.440
<v Speaker 3>It sounded like a stat of the day.

0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:00.320
<v Speaker 6>Maybe you were just letting it breathe Is that what

0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.680
<v Speaker 6>you were doing the anticipation there. I don't know if

0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:05.280
<v Speaker 6>you were still going or not, but I was ready.

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I made eye contact with you. I was, you know,

0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 2>like laser focused those blue eyes. Yeah, well yeah, oh yeah,

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:16.960
<v Speaker 2>all right, so we'll come up with the pole question.

0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Phone calls is always with best and worst of the weekend.

0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:24.360
<v Speaker 2>I do have updated odds. By the way, Dylan will

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.920
<v Speaker 2>be betting on the Hall of Fame game on the

0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 2>next gambling podcast, right, yes, sir, okay, the Panthers are

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.440
<v Speaker 2>favored by one and a half over the Cardinals and

0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 2>the over unders thirty six and a half.

0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:38.480
<v Speaker 3>Just let you know.

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.120
<v Speaker 2>And yes, I used to bet on preseason football. I

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:44.319
<v Speaker 2>used to bet on the Hall of Fame game.

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 3>Oh I was. That was sad. That's very sad.

0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 6>Yes, Marmon, how low did you have to go preseason football?

0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:01.199
<v Speaker 2>I know, but you're so you're only energize for football,

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.520
<v Speaker 2>you're waiting for it, and you're like, all right, preseason football,

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:09.080
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I've got depth charts. I'm thinking who's playing,

0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:11.840
<v Speaker 2>how long they're playing, starters aren't playing, how good's their

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:16.920
<v Speaker 2>second string? You know, quarterback, running back, all of that stuff. No,

0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:19.719
<v Speaker 2>Sad really said, Yes, Daling, you.

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.360
<v Speaker 4>Could argue that that's the sharp play. Like the best

0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:24.560
<v Speaker 4>run I ever went on betting was I had a

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:28.800
<v Speaker 4>time where I was all over the preseason hockey point

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:32.120
<v Speaker 4>totals said.

0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:33.400
<v Speaker 3>They weren't.

0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Man all of a sudden, Brendan Sorosby doesn't look.

0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:43.560
<v Speaker 5>That bad, you know, yes, Bowen, which is worse betting

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:45.680
<v Speaker 5>on the Hall of Fame game or being cited that

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:49.240
<v Speaker 5>your team wins the Hall of Fame game like a

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:50.880
<v Speaker 5>fan base was like, if I'm a Cardinal fan, you

0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:51.199
<v Speaker 5>know we.

0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Won that game fourteen thirteen.

0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:55.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm just saying, if I'm a Cardinal fan,

0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:59.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll take any victory like a scrimmage. Hey, you know what,

0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:00.559
<v Speaker 2>we beat the Commanders.

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:04.160
<v Speaker 6>Yes, yes, Mark, No, don't do that because the Lions

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 6>won all four of their preseason games and then win

0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 6>oh to sixteen. So I'm not sure if they want

0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:09.040
<v Speaker 6>to do that.

0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 7>Uh.

0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of football, Sean McVay at his press conference was

0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:18.360
<v Speaker 2>talking about the possibility of Aaron Donald returning.

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:20.760
<v Speaker 8>Hey, here's what I would tell you. There won't be

0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.240
<v Speaker 8>any news on that front until we get back to Woodland.

0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 2>Hills.

0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:26.080
<v Speaker 8>You know, we have some different things, which you know,

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.080
<v Speaker 8>I know, I totally understand. What I don't want to

0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:32.360
<v Speaker 8>do is put there's some conversations that we've had, We've

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:35.200
<v Speaker 8>loosely had some different timelines that are kind of temporary.

0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:37.679
<v Speaker 8>I want to keep those between us, just you know,

0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.920
<v Speaker 8>if something unforeseen happens, out of respect for him in

0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:43.680
<v Speaker 8>the situation. But I know this, you know, the things

0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:46.560
<v Speaker 8>are going in the right direction, and if there's an arrow,

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:47.560
<v Speaker 8>it's trending upwards.

0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:51.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm even surprised that he's talking that much

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:55.720
<v Speaker 2>about this because it feels like, now, do I think

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.200
<v Speaker 2>something's going to happen, Yes, I do. I think that

0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:02.080
<v Speaker 2>Aaron Donald will play Because he's saying it's trending upward.

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:04.320
<v Speaker 2>I think you have an idea, a sense of this.

0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:06.520
<v Speaker 2>If I'm Aaron Donald, I don't want to go to

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:11.080
<v Speaker 2>camp any sooner than I have to. But if I'm

0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Sean McVay, I would probably take the approach of, hey,

0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:16.800
<v Speaker 2>I want to talk about the players who were here

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:22.240
<v Speaker 2>instead of the hypothetical, because then people will you know,

0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:25.840
<v Speaker 2>you're going to write down his words, record his words,

0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:28.600
<v Speaker 2>and then play the words back to him and what happened.

0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:32.400
<v Speaker 2>So I think staying off the topic, even though he's

0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:36.800
<v Speaker 2>excited about the possibility, I would probably remove myself from

0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:41.800
<v Speaker 2>the hypothetical of Aaron Donald just say, you know, I

0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:44.319
<v Speaker 2>got to set a deadline at some point. I think

0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:47.800
<v Speaker 2>when they go back from training camp, then he's going

0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.480
<v Speaker 2>to have something to say, and I think that it

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:53.240
<v Speaker 2>probably will be that Aaron Donald is going to come back.

0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:55.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, PAULI, the deadline for Aaron Donald should be during

0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:57.840
<v Speaker 5>the national anthem in week one. If he walks on

0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:59.680
<v Speaker 5>the field shirtless, I'd put him in the game.

0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think he's gonna play. It feels like there's

0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 2>I haven't heard any setbacks. I haven't heard anything of

0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 2>you know what, there's a chance that maybe he's not

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.959
<v Speaker 2>coming back. But I do think that when you can

0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 2>hear it in his voice, you can hear it in

0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.160
<v Speaker 2>his voice that he's having some fun with this. He's

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:23.480
<v Speaker 2>excited about this, and rightfully. So all right, we'll take

0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:27.000
<v Speaker 2>a break. We'll talk to Tim Kirkchin about the situation,

0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.600
<v Speaker 2>not only with the Dodgers, and any other moves that

0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.800
<v Speaker 2>were made or weren't made, and why or why not.

0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.400
<v Speaker 2>We're back after this. Dan Patrick Show.

0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Roberts on criticism regarding the trade for Terry Skooble.

0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:33.440
<v Speaker 11>There's it just seems like there's always blowback with us.

0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:37.200
<v Speaker 11>People are passionate. We feel good about it. There's nothing

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 11>that we did that no one else couldn't have done.

0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:43.680
<v Speaker 11>You know, I just lot our front office or you know,

0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:45.000
<v Speaker 11>we have to have the players to be able to

0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:47.319
<v Speaker 11>pull something like this off, and you know we still

0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:50.000
<v Speaker 11>got you know, partly one of the top two or

0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:52.680
<v Speaker 11>three or one or two or three farm systems in baseball,

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:55.599
<v Speaker 11>you know, a day later. So it's a credit to

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 11>a lot of people in this organization.

0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 2>He's right about that with the farms to have the

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:04.680
<v Speaker 2>pieces that you can trade away to get treks Scuuble.

0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Tim Kirkchin, Tim Kirkchin, ESPN Baseball Trade Deadline, they have

0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 2>a special on the Mothership from four to six Eastern.

0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Tim will be there with Jeff Pass Andbuster only at

0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Wardo Perez and Kevin Conners the trade deadline six pm Eastern.

0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, Timmy, where do you stand on what the

0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers pulled off here with trek Scuble?

0:14:29.680 --> 0:14:33.160
<v Speaker 12>How a problem with this? I mean, is it healthy Dan,

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:36.320
<v Speaker 12>that the payroll disparities is what it is in the

0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:38.960
<v Speaker 12>major leagues right now? No, it's not healthy. But that's

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:43.080
<v Speaker 12>not the Dodgers fault. A lot of other teams are

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:46.080
<v Speaker 12>spending a lot of money. And people don't like to

0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 12>hear this, but the Dodgers are an exceptionally run organization.

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:54.840
<v Speaker 12>They draft and develop better than most teams, They teach

0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:58.920
<v Speaker 12>better than most teams, so they were in a position

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 12>to do this and a lot and Dave Roberts is right,

0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:05.080
<v Speaker 12>a lot of other teams could have gone out and

0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:08.720
<v Speaker 12>gotten trek skouble with the understanding of course they have

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.920
<v Speaker 12>the resources and the money that other teams don't have.

0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:15.200
<v Speaker 12>But when it comes to the resources, they've built that

0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:19.480
<v Speaker 12>organization so well, that's how they have a really, really

0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:22.200
<v Speaker 12>good farm system them are able to make a deal

0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:22.720
<v Speaker 12>like this.

0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:28.080
<v Speaker 2>Does getting schooball now give the Dodgers a luxury of

0:15:28.120 --> 0:15:31.720
<v Speaker 2>not having to pitch Otani at any time over the

0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:32.560
<v Speaker 2>next month or so.

0:15:35.080 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 12>Yes, I think it does, and I think they want him.

0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:41.360
<v Speaker 12>I know they want him to pitch in October. But

0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:44.880
<v Speaker 12>when you get Blake Snell back, and you have Snell

0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:49.440
<v Speaker 12>and Yamamoto and Scooble, and when they get Tyler glass

0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:52.400
<v Speaker 12>Now back and they have Rokisuzaki, it's it's one hundred

0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:56.080
<v Speaker 12>miles an hour with a great split. That's already five

0:15:56.160 --> 0:16:00.360
<v Speaker 12>guys right there without Otani. Now they want Otani to pitch.

0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:03.240
<v Speaker 12>I think Otani will pitch before the end of the season,

0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:07.520
<v Speaker 12>But this indeed gives them the opportunity to say we

0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:11.000
<v Speaker 12>need him as a great offensive player, and if pitching

0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.520
<v Speaker 12>is in any way going to get in the way

0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:15.520
<v Speaker 12>of that, we don't have to pitch him because we

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 12>just acquired the best pitcher in the American League.

0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:22.160
<v Speaker 3>How do the Dodgers not win the World Series?

0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:29.280
<v Speaker 12>Well, Dan, you played both sports, and you recognize that

0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:32.720
<v Speaker 12>anything can happen in baseball. And you have the best

0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:36.920
<v Speaker 12>players on a basketball team and they work really well together,

0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 12>and Michael and Larry touch it on every possession. That's

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:44.800
<v Speaker 12>different than in baseball because Show is only in about

0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:46.840
<v Speaker 12>four or five times a game, and they might not

0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:49.880
<v Speaker 12>pitch to him. But I think the Dodgers are the

0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:54.120
<v Speaker 12>clear favorites to win the World Series again, in part

0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:58.840
<v Speaker 12>because their roster is just so ridiculously deep, and now

0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:01.440
<v Speaker 12>they're pitching staff is equally deep.

0:17:03.680 --> 0:17:07.360
<v Speaker 2>Let's get to the expensive elephant in the room about

0:17:07.440 --> 0:17:09.960
<v Speaker 2>what this is going to mean for baseball as we

0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:15.440
<v Speaker 2>move forward and the CBA and Players Association and all

0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:20.200
<v Speaker 2>that mess that we know is looming here. Tim.

0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:22.959
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, mess is a good word for it, Dan, and

0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 12>I am worried like everyone else that there will be

0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:32.280
<v Speaker 12>a lockout, there will be games lost next year, we

0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:35.000
<v Speaker 12>might lose the whole season let's hope none of that

0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:39.600
<v Speaker 12>is true. But this, this is where we are right now.

0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:43.640
<v Speaker 12>The two sides are really far apart. Wasn't that long

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:46.560
<v Speaker 12>ago Someone who would know told me never seen the

0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:52.120
<v Speaker 12>side this far apart with a deadline looming this close.

0:17:52.320 --> 0:17:56.399
<v Speaker 12>So let's just hope that everyone recognizes there is so

0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.600
<v Speaker 12>much money to be lost in this game if we

0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.960
<v Speaker 12>don't play by the players, hand by the owners, and

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:06.479
<v Speaker 12>maybe somehow someone will find a way to put this together.

0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:09.520
<v Speaker 12>But if the owners think they're going to get a

0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:12.920
<v Speaker 12>salary cap from the players, I just don't think that's

0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.679
<v Speaker 12>going to happen. And that's why I think we're going

0:18:15.760 --> 0:18:17.960
<v Speaker 12>to have a work stoppage at this point.

0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:23.280
<v Speaker 2>But if you look at seventy percent of teams reinvest

0:18:23.359 --> 0:18:26.639
<v Speaker 2>less than fifty percent of their revenue back into their

0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:29.879
<v Speaker 2>own teams. The recent study had that. So is it

0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:33.280
<v Speaker 2>a salary floor that we need more than we need

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:34.160
<v Speaker 2>a salary cap.

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:41.359
<v Speaker 12>I'm not even sure a floor fixes fixes the situation

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:45.119
<v Speaker 12>either day. Let's just say you have a ninety million

0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:48.679
<v Speaker 12>dollar payroll and you're not very good and you're going

0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:52.520
<v Speaker 12>to lose. You know, you're going to win sixty eight

0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.760
<v Speaker 12>games and then they make you spend one hundred and

0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:59.480
<v Speaker 12>fifty million, and then you win seventy two games, and

0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:03.920
<v Speaker 12>you only finish four games higher, and you still don't

0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:07.879
<v Speaker 12>make the playoffs. Just because you have a floor doesn't

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:09.960
<v Speaker 12>mean you're going to solve the problem. Is it worth

0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:11.919
<v Speaker 12>a try? Yes, it's worth to try. Am I in

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 12>favor of it, Yes, I am. But it's it's not

0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:18.600
<v Speaker 12>going to solve all the problems. The problems are too

0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:21.600
<v Speaker 12>big to be solved just by a salary floor.

0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:26.320
<v Speaker 2>I thought about this. I saw this the anniversary nineteen

0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:30.120
<v Speaker 2>sixty and I thought of you. The Tigers traded their manager,

0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:33.879
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy Dike's to the Indians for their manager, Joe Gordon.

0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:36.800
<v Speaker 2>I figured you would have a story or something to

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:41.400
<v Speaker 2>add to this. Knowing you, I'm.

0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:44.399
<v Speaker 12>Not sure I have a manager for manager story. I

0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:47.199
<v Speaker 12>was only three years old at the time, Dan, But

0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:51.240
<v Speaker 12>it just goes to show you how beautiful this game

0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:54.360
<v Speaker 12>is that just when you think you've seen everything, something

0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:59.359
<v Speaker 12>else happened. It's just it's just the craziest, stupidest, best

0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:03.359
<v Speaker 12>game her And it's going to be proven again today

0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:06.760
<v Speaker 12>because something's gonna happen at the trade deadline. It's just

0:20:06.800 --> 0:20:10.000
<v Speaker 12>going to make our us slap our foreheads like we

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:13.280
<v Speaker 12>do all the time. But that's why baseball is so great,

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:17.520
<v Speaker 12>is it's so unpredictable and I never know what's going

0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:19.520
<v Speaker 12>to be around the corner. This year, I've been wrong

0:20:19.600 --> 0:20:24.080
<v Speaker 12>Dan so many times about so many things, so many teams,

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:27.040
<v Speaker 12>and I'm not apologizing to anybody for it, because it

0:20:27.200 --> 0:20:30.720
<v Speaker 12>just proves dead. The game is so beautiful, it's too

0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:33.639
<v Speaker 12>good to be predicted. And Dan, it troubles me a

0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:36.600
<v Speaker 12>little bit that we're trying to predict what a player

0:20:36.680 --> 0:20:39.080
<v Speaker 12>is going to look like five years from now, or

0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 12>a team is going to look like five years from now,

0:20:41.640 --> 0:20:43.239
<v Speaker 12>and we don't even know what's going to look like

0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:47.320
<v Speaker 12>five minutes from now. That's just how the game operates.

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Are you surprised like I am that the mic cackage

0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:55.400
<v Speaker 2>Fritz Peterson swapping wives they were teammates hasn't been made

0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:56.840
<v Speaker 2>into a movie yet.

0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:02.560
<v Speaker 12>And they swapped the show You're too Dad, imagine doing that.

0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I just yes, they were to be named

0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:09.480
<v Speaker 2>children be named later.

0:21:09.680 --> 0:21:10.200
<v Speaker 3>I think.

0:21:11.800 --> 0:21:12.800
<v Speaker 13>For a fifth.

0:21:12.480 --> 0:21:16.200
<v Speaker 12>Grader to be named later. No, I'm shocked that more

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:19.080
<v Speaker 12>wasn't made out of that at the time. Magine, Dan,

0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:23.240
<v Speaker 12>if something like that were to happen today with Twitter

0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:26.119
<v Speaker 12>ex whatever it's called, the Internet, all that stuff, it

0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:29.320
<v Speaker 12>would be total bedlam. Yes, I think at some point

0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:32.240
<v Speaker 12>someone needs to make a movie about that, because it

0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:36.120
<v Speaker 12>actually happened between major League baseball players.

0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for squeezing us in. I know you're busy, safe travels,

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Timmy all right, Dan, see it. That's Tim

0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:48.720
<v Speaker 2>Kirkchin of the Mothership. They got their trade deadline special

0:21:48.720 --> 0:21:52.440
<v Speaker 2>from four to six eastern tonight, Jeff Passen, Buster Olney

0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.600
<v Speaker 2>at Wardo Perez, Kevin Connors in the studio and the

0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:59.080
<v Speaker 2>trade deadline at sixth Eastern. I know that we've had

0:21:59.119 --> 0:22:01.760
<v Speaker 2>Matt Damon on and he and Ben Affleck. I think

0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:06.160
<v Speaker 2>we're looking circling that project of the two Yankee pitchers

0:22:06.480 --> 0:22:11.320
<v Speaker 2>who basically traded families. Amazing. I think that was nineteen

0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:15.520
<v Speaker 2>seventy one, Fritz Peterson and Mike Keckage, and I think

0:22:15.600 --> 0:22:19.160
<v Speaker 2>one of the two stayed married the other one's marriage

0:22:19.320 --> 0:22:21.800
<v Speaker 2>broke up, but they traded kids too.

0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:24.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Paully, you can look up this story and you

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:26.840
<v Speaker 5>can see, like the New York Times page a sports

0:22:26.880 --> 0:22:29.040
<v Speaker 5>page the next day, it's a real headline and it's

0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:32.359
<v Speaker 5>out there. It happened in nineteen seventy three, after the

0:22:32.359 --> 0:22:34.280
<v Speaker 5>trade deadline Dan by the way, which seems to be

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:37.920
<v Speaker 5>a violation. But yeah, about ten years ago, Matt Damon

0:22:37.960 --> 0:22:40.240
<v Speaker 5>and Ben Affleck talk to some of the people involved

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:43.000
<v Speaker 5>about making a movie. It's stalled a little bit, but

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:44.240
<v Speaker 5>this has to happen.

0:22:45.560 --> 0:22:49.880
<v Speaker 2>It just feels like if you said to somebody, hey,

0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:53.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking about two teammates and they traded their families,

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:56.639
<v Speaker 2>and you'd go, well, nobody's going to buy into that. Well,

0:22:56.760 --> 0:23:00.880
<v Speaker 2>it happened in nineteen seventy three. A couple of phone

0:23:00.880 --> 0:23:04.600
<v Speaker 2>calls here lead us off. Gust In la I guess

0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:06.359
<v Speaker 2>you got to be feeling good today.

0:23:08.280 --> 0:23:11.000
<v Speaker 14>Good morning, mister Patrick. Hope you and the boys had

0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:17.600
<v Speaker 14>a great weekend. Will Aside from I had the worst

0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:21.360
<v Speaker 14>of the weekend before the best of the weekend Saturday afternoon,

0:23:22.040 --> 0:23:27.040
<v Speaker 14>I unfortunately had a break. Heel break held radialis tear

0:23:27.600 --> 0:23:28.080
<v Speaker 14>you ever.

0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:28.280
<v Speaker 12>Heard of that?

0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:31.600
<v Speaker 3>I tore It sounds painful.

0:23:32.840 --> 0:23:36.400
<v Speaker 14>I tore the tendon in my forearm that pretty much

0:23:36.440 --> 0:23:39.760
<v Speaker 14>goes down to the wrist, not allowing me to properly

0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:44.679
<v Speaker 14>grip anything or rotate my wrist without excruciating pain. So

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:49.640
<v Speaker 14>I'm dealing with that. And then Saturday night, that's when

0:23:49.640 --> 0:23:51.760
<v Speaker 14>the real fun kicked in. When I saw that the

0:23:51.880 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 14>Dodgers acquired arguably the best picture in baseball for apparently

0:23:58.520 --> 0:24:01.080
<v Speaker 14>three people that the Brewery than the Braves could not

0:24:01.320 --> 0:24:05.400
<v Speaker 14>find in their farm system. That is when I saw

0:24:06.040 --> 0:24:12.280
<v Speaker 14>how soft Major League baseball fans have become. I'm sorry,

0:24:12.760 --> 0:24:15.600
<v Speaker 14>when did it become that it was our fault that

0:24:15.680 --> 0:24:18.560
<v Speaker 14>the Boston Red Sox called up the Dodgers and said, Hey,

0:24:18.640 --> 0:24:20.760
<v Speaker 14>can we have mookie bets in exchange for two in

0:24:20.800 --> 0:24:25.479
<v Speaker 14>and out burgers? Hey, Atlanta, you know they didn't care

0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:28.200
<v Speaker 14>about Freddie Freeman, they let him walk. Is it the Dodgers'

0:24:28.280 --> 0:24:31.120
<v Speaker 14>fault that showhil Tony went back to the Angels and said, Hey,

0:24:31.119 --> 0:24:34.080
<v Speaker 14>the Dodgers are offer me this, can you guys match it? Please?

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:38.040
<v Speaker 14>No enjoy the drive up to five. When did it

0:24:38.119 --> 0:24:41.400
<v Speaker 14>become we were the villains in all of this? When

0:24:41.480 --> 0:24:45.720
<v Speaker 14>baseball owners around the league make almost as much as

0:24:45.760 --> 0:24:47.880
<v Speaker 14>the other owners do, but all of a sudden, it's

0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:50.879
<v Speaker 14>our fault that we're the ones that are taking advantage

0:24:50.960 --> 0:24:55.679
<v Speaker 14>of the opportunities that we have it's not our fault.

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:57.919
<v Speaker 14>You guys need to turn back, look at your owners

0:24:57.920 --> 0:24:59.960
<v Speaker 14>and say, hey, why can't we do that?

0:25:01.880 --> 0:25:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I agree with you guys. Sorry about the injury,

0:25:04.720 --> 0:25:08.600
<v Speaker 2>but hopefully you're healing. With Trek Scubel on the mound.

0:25:09.640 --> 0:25:11.160
<v Speaker 2>You start to look at this and you go find

0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:14.760
<v Speaker 2>the Brewers or the Rays. Okay, maybe I can't keep

0:25:14.880 --> 0:25:18.400
<v Speaker 2>Trek's scouble But how important is this season? How good

0:25:18.600 --> 0:25:21.760
<v Speaker 2>is your team that you might have a chance. And

0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:25.040
<v Speaker 2>I think that's the key. Just get to the World Series.

0:25:25.160 --> 0:25:29.160
<v Speaker 2>Like if you're an American League team, just get there. Yes,

0:25:29.240 --> 0:25:31.320
<v Speaker 2>you'll probably meet up against the Dodgers. But if you

0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 2>can take schoobl away from the Dodgers, maybe I have

0:25:34.560 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 2>a chance when you get there. And I think that's

0:25:37.560 --> 0:25:41.480
<v Speaker 2>the important part with this. I'm looking at the guys

0:25:41.520 --> 0:25:43.879
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers gave up. I think two of the prospects

0:25:43.880 --> 0:25:45.360
<v Speaker 2>are top forty prospects.

0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:46.879
<v Speaker 3>But there are other.

0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Teams that had some players that maybe you could trade

0:25:51.000 --> 0:25:51.960
<v Speaker 2>if it's important.

0:25:51.960 --> 0:25:52.240
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:55.840
<v Speaker 2>For the Dodgers, every year is important, and yes, do

0:25:55.840 --> 0:25:59.000
<v Speaker 2>they have the resources. I know that, but they treat

0:25:59.119 --> 0:26:02.280
<v Speaker 2>every year as a lost opportunity. If we don't win

0:26:02.320 --> 0:26:05.600
<v Speaker 2>the World Series other teams. The Yankees used to be

0:26:05.720 --> 0:26:10.399
<v Speaker 2>that way lost opportunity. Now they're just hoping to get back.

0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Thank you Gus Chris and Syracuse. Hi Chris, what do

0:26:14.520 --> 0:26:15.040
<v Speaker 2>you have for me?

0:26:16.880 --> 0:26:17.120
<v Speaker 7>Hey?

0:26:17.119 --> 0:26:18.560
<v Speaker 15>Thanks Dany, I had a couple of bass and worse

0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:22.120
<v Speaker 15>for you. Best of Fernando Mendoz's comments about Kirk Cousins

0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:25.320
<v Speaker 15>being the number one quarterback going into training camp. His

0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:28.399
<v Speaker 15>self awareness and humility is awesome and I hope the

0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:31.800
<v Speaker 15>Raiders don't completely hand over the reins till to Mendoz

0:26:31.880 --> 0:26:34.960
<v Speaker 15>until they shore up that offensive line. And another best

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:38.679
<v Speaker 15>to Jay Davian Clowney signing with the Texans yesterday. How

0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:40.639
<v Speaker 15>many more contracts is that guy going to get? It

0:26:40.680 --> 0:26:43.159
<v Speaker 15>seems like he's been around forever and it looks like

0:26:43.240 --> 0:26:46.240
<v Speaker 15>he manned up ending his career where it started twelve

0:26:46.240 --> 0:26:49.920
<v Speaker 15>thirteen years ago. And the worse bicker Mayfield this weekend

0:26:49.920 --> 0:26:53.280
<v Speaker 15>talking about a Netflix in Omaha Productions, which I think

0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:57.600
<v Speaker 15>is Peyton manning. This an upcoming series which supposedly is

0:26:57.640 --> 0:27:00.480
<v Speaker 15>a behind the scenes look at some NFL quarterbacks this year,

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:03.800
<v Speaker 15>and Mayfield said that the quarterbacks have beatle power over

0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:06.680
<v Speaker 15>any part of the content they don't want to air.

0:27:07.320 --> 0:27:09.560
<v Speaker 15>So that's the case, how can it be a behind

0:27:09.560 --> 0:27:13.600
<v Speaker 15>the scenes look and fans now knowing the content is edited,

0:27:13.880 --> 0:27:17.440
<v Speaker 15>I think it will hurt viewership. And lastly, Friday night,

0:27:17.480 --> 0:27:20.240
<v Speaker 15>the Big Ten and SEC both jumping on board with

0:27:20.320 --> 0:27:23.680
<v Speaker 15>the idea of passing the Senate built to regulate college football,

0:27:23.880 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 15>and Dan Hurley also this weekend saying in a colorful way,

0:27:27.560 --> 0:27:30.720
<v Speaker 15>college sports needs to be saved, but I hope not

0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:32.080
<v Speaker 15>by the federal government.

0:27:33.160 --> 0:27:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Chris. Yeah, Friday was fascinating. From what I'm

0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:42.960
<v Speaker 2>told by a source that President Trump got directly involved

0:27:42.960 --> 0:27:46.120
<v Speaker 2>on Friday, notifying the SEC and Big Ten that if

0:27:46.119 --> 0:27:49.480
<v Speaker 2>they didn't fall in line supporting this bill, he would

0:27:49.560 --> 0:27:52.679
<v Speaker 2>make it clear to the American people how all of

0:27:52.760 --> 0:27:57.000
<v Speaker 2>college sports's ills were their problems. He said he would

0:27:57.080 --> 0:28:01.000
<v Speaker 2>hit them hard and repeatedly. So you got the SEC

0:28:01.040 --> 0:28:03.920
<v Speaker 2>and the Big Ten that they are playing nice. I

0:28:03.960 --> 0:28:07.320
<v Speaker 2>think all the conferences want this to happen. And once

0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 2>again they didn't mind their own business. They needed help,

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:14.920
<v Speaker 2>and that's why they're going to Congress because it got

0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:17.359
<v Speaker 2>out of hand. It got out of hand quickly, and

0:28:17.440 --> 0:28:20.720
<v Speaker 2>there was nothing they could do. Now they're hoping Congress

0:28:20.800 --> 0:28:25.240
<v Speaker 2>is going to be able to help them help college athletics.

0:28:26.080 --> 0:28:28.760
<v Speaker 2>Solomon in La, Hi Solomon, what's on your mind?

0:28:30.040 --> 0:28:32.280
<v Speaker 7>Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call. Yeah, you know,

0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:35.560
<v Speaker 7>doctor fan here. You know the slings and arrows are

0:28:35.560 --> 0:28:39.360
<v Speaker 7>coming today. So I got three things to say. Number One,

0:28:39.520 --> 0:28:43.240
<v Speaker 7>in the last twenty years, two of the top payroll

0:28:43.280 --> 0:28:47.959
<v Speaker 7>teams of Wonder World Series two. Okay, three under the

0:28:48.000 --> 0:28:52.560
<v Speaker 7>top ten Wonder World Series number two. Oh, the Dodgers

0:28:52.600 --> 0:28:56.640
<v Speaker 7>they got the money. Yeah, Steve Cohen has a multi

0:28:56.760 --> 0:29:00.720
<v Speaker 7>billionaire Howard the Met's doing. And number three, it's not

0:29:01.120 --> 0:29:04.840
<v Speaker 7>just the money, it's how you spend it and give

0:29:04.880 --> 0:29:06.640
<v Speaker 7>me if you spend a lot of money. The Boston

0:29:06.680 --> 0:29:09.600
<v Speaker 7>the Red Sox just came in and swept the Dodgers,

0:29:09.920 --> 0:29:12.560
<v Speaker 7>So there you go. They may not be sitting always

0:29:12.600 --> 0:29:14.440
<v Speaker 7>on top of the mountain, and you can always get

0:29:14.520 --> 0:29:18.720
<v Speaker 7>knocked off. So I'm happy the Dodgers got him. Moving forward,

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:21.360
<v Speaker 7>it looks good and let's see what happens. You play

0:29:21.400 --> 0:29:22.400
<v Speaker 7>the game on the field.

0:29:23.560 --> 0:29:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Solomon, you have I mean Andrew Friedman pulled

0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:30.520
<v Speaker 2>this off when he was with Tampa. He made great

0:29:30.560 --> 0:29:32.960
<v Speaker 2>moves and didn't have money. You have to have smart

0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:36.880
<v Speaker 2>baseball people. It's not just Steve Cohen's like, I'm gonna

0:29:36.960 --> 0:29:40.480
<v Speaker 2>buy a winner and then what's that look like? Now

0:29:40.600 --> 0:29:43.600
<v Speaker 2>now you're selling off parts. I think you have to

0:29:43.640 --> 0:29:46.440
<v Speaker 2>have some kind of game plan here. Yes you do

0:29:46.520 --> 0:29:48.800
<v Speaker 2>have money. Yes you have to be smart and say

0:29:48.800 --> 0:29:51.600
<v Speaker 2>to show Autani, hey would you defer this money? And

0:29:51.640 --> 0:29:55.240
<v Speaker 2>he's willing to do that, you know, getting Freddy Freeman

0:29:55.280 --> 0:29:59.120
<v Speaker 2>getting Mookie bets. The Braves aren't going to resign anymore.

0:29:59.160 --> 0:30:01.520
<v Speaker 2>The Red Sox are willing to trade Mookie. You know,

0:30:01.880 --> 0:30:05.840
<v Speaker 2>they've taken advantage of a lot of different teams, but

0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:08.560
<v Speaker 2>I think they've done it in a smart way. It's

0:30:08.560 --> 0:30:12.160
<v Speaker 2>not just we're gonna come in and bulldoze you. Yes, Marvin, You.

0:30:12.120 --> 0:30:14.360
<v Speaker 6>Even look back at the nineties Yankees when they were

0:30:14.360 --> 0:30:17.960
<v Speaker 6>winning championships, those four World Series titles, they had homegrown

0:30:17.960 --> 0:30:22.840
<v Speaker 6>talent Posada Jeter, Mariann Rivera, Bernie Williams. Even when they

0:30:22.880 --> 0:30:25.920
<v Speaker 6>had all those big name Giambi a Rod even to

0:30:25.960 --> 0:30:28.480
<v Speaker 6>share a Cci. They won one World Series when he

0:30:28.600 --> 0:30:31.200
<v Speaker 6>really started spending a boatload of cash. So it doesn't

0:30:31.240 --> 0:30:34.520
<v Speaker 6>guarantee you anything. Really like a good pharmacism and having

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 6>a good, well run organization.

0:30:37.360 --> 0:30:38.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think.

0:30:38.640 --> 0:30:41.640
<v Speaker 2>And people talk about the Yankees, they had homegrown talent.

0:30:41.800 --> 0:30:44.720
<v Speaker 2>The difference was they were able to keep the homegrown talent.

0:30:44.880 --> 0:30:48.360
<v Speaker 2>Most like the Pirates have homegrown talent, they can't keep them.

0:30:49.280 --> 0:30:51.720
<v Speaker 2>The Yankees were able to spend that money on Jeter

0:30:51.880 --> 0:30:58.920
<v Speaker 2>and Posada Marianna. That's the difference. We can grow them,

0:30:59.200 --> 0:31:01.760
<v Speaker 2>but can we keep them? And most teams can't keep

0:31:01.800 --> 0:31:02.280
<v Speaker 2>their talent.

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:05.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Paul, Yeah, I agree that other teams, lesser spending

0:31:05.320 --> 0:31:07.040
<v Speaker 5>teams do have a chance to make the playoffs and

0:31:07.080 --> 0:31:09.400
<v Speaker 5>win the World Series. But I think what really bums

0:31:09.400 --> 0:31:12.160
<v Speaker 5>people out. If you're a sports fan of like again

0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:15.360
<v Speaker 5>to bring into Pirates, you know, Paul Skins will not

0:31:15.440 --> 0:31:18.360
<v Speaker 5>finish his career with your team. There's just a zero

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:21.720
<v Speaker 5>chance of it. He won't finish his twenties with your team.

0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:24.280
<v Speaker 5>Two years from now or less, Paul Skins will be

0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:28.040
<v Speaker 5>a Dodger or elsewhere unless he is just the anomaly

0:31:28.120 --> 0:31:31.400
<v Speaker 5>that passes on millions. He has to do a Jalen Brunson.

0:31:34.120 --> 0:31:34.320
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

0:31:34.400 --> 0:31:36.120
<v Speaker 5>I can't think of any other way.

0:31:36.840 --> 0:31:41.959
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Dodgers just made a smart move, that's all. And

0:31:42.000 --> 0:31:45.440
<v Speaker 2>we saw it coming. But in granted, did they have

0:31:45.560 --> 0:31:48.840
<v Speaker 2>leverage because Derek Schouobi wanted to go there. Yes, but team,

0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:50.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, players are going to want to go to

0:31:50.440 --> 0:31:53.000
<v Speaker 2>that team. They're going to want to play because you're

0:31:53.040 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 2>playing for championships. And that's a testament to what they've done,

0:31:57.720 --> 0:32:00.360
<v Speaker 2>what they've grown. But they came with it in an

0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:06.920
<v Speaker 2>eyelash of not winning the World Series. I don't think

0:32:06.920 --> 0:32:10.320
<v Speaker 2>it's a four gune conclusion, but I thought some of

0:32:10.360 --> 0:32:13.200
<v Speaker 2>these teams. Now I'm looking at the payrolls. So the

0:32:13.240 --> 0:32:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers right now the best odds. They have the number

0:32:15.800 --> 0:32:19.479
<v Speaker 2>two payroll. The Yankees they have the third payroll. Then

0:32:19.520 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 2>it's the Brewers third best odds by the way, to

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:26.360
<v Speaker 2>win the World Series. They have the nineteenth payroll, Braves

0:32:26.520 --> 0:32:31.400
<v Speaker 2>the sixth, followed by the Rays the twenty third highest payroll,

0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:37.240
<v Speaker 2>then the Red Sox, Cubs, Phillies, Astros, and the Marlins.

0:32:37.320 --> 0:32:40.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, poem, But if we want a salary cap and baseball,

0:32:40.120 --> 0:32:42.240
<v Speaker 5>should we root for the Dodgers to win this year

0:32:42.520 --> 0:32:44.800
<v Speaker 5>or root for, like if you don't a dog in

0:32:44.800 --> 0:32:46.920
<v Speaker 5>the fight, the Brewers because they're lovable and they don't

0:32:46.960 --> 0:32:47.880
<v Speaker 5>spend it time.

0:32:49.280 --> 0:32:51.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think it's hard to root for the Dodgers

0:32:52.800 --> 0:32:55.080
<v Speaker 2>if you're saying, I'm going to root for the Dodgers

0:32:55.440 --> 0:32:57.320
<v Speaker 2>just so they win the World Series and then we

0:32:57.360 --> 0:33:01.200
<v Speaker 2>can tell everybody, the owners that we need salary cap right,

0:33:01.240 --> 0:33:04.000
<v Speaker 2>I guess. But it's not like you know, you don't know.

0:33:04.600 --> 0:33:07.760
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers aren't the evil Empire like they have great

0:33:07.840 --> 0:33:10.520
<v Speaker 2>personalities there. You can't help but love Dave Roberts. It's

0:33:10.560 --> 0:33:14.480
<v Speaker 2>not one of those where like George Steinbrenner with the Yankees,

0:33:14.840 --> 0:33:17.680
<v Speaker 2>hard to like, but he was brilliant at what he did,

0:33:18.240 --> 0:33:21.480
<v Speaker 2>and you took your money and reinvested it in your team.

0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:26.000
<v Speaker 2>That's what I want any other fan base, if you

0:33:26.000 --> 0:33:29.800
<v Speaker 2>could trade your team for the Dodgers and their philosophy,

0:33:29.840 --> 0:33:33.240
<v Speaker 2>their front office, you'd be like, yep, I'd do it.

<v Speaker 2>Fitzgerald will join us. Coming up at the top of

0:34:53.480 --> 0:34:56.480
<v Speaker 2>the hour. I was looking at the twenty twenty four

0:34:56.640 --> 0:35:00.360
<v Speaker 2>class of wide receivers. Remember this was the load with

0:35:00.480 --> 0:35:05.640
<v Speaker 2>wide receivers class Marvin Harrison Junior, the third, Malik Neighbors,

0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:12.160
<v Speaker 2>Roma Doonza, Brian Thomas Junior, Xavier Worthy, Ricky Pearsaw, Xavier

0:35:12.280 --> 0:35:18.200
<v Speaker 2>leget Keon Coleman, Lad McConkie. Okay, how many out of

0:35:18.239 --> 0:35:22.040
<v Speaker 2>that group hit Malik Neighbors coming back from an injury.

0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Marvin Harrison Junior, he's not great. I think we expected

0:35:28.719 --> 0:35:33.360
<v Speaker 2>him to be great. Fourth pick overall, Brian Thomas was

0:35:33.400 --> 0:35:36.600
<v Speaker 2>a surprise and kind of a mixed bag. Now a

0:35:36.680 --> 0:35:41.120
<v Speaker 2>doonsay with injuries, Xavier Worthy, Ricky Pearsaw's out for the year,

0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Keon Coleman, Xavier leget Lad McConkie. So you do have

0:35:47.320 --> 0:35:52.399
<v Speaker 2>some names there and still a chance to kind of resurface,

0:35:52.440 --> 0:35:55.719
<v Speaker 2>as you know, the player of the talent we thought

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:58.160
<v Speaker 2>you were going to be. But that's the twenty twenty

0:35:58.160 --> 0:36:02.480
<v Speaker 2>four loaded wide receiver class. That not exactly impressing.

0:36:02.719 --> 0:36:05.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, PAULI, I went back and look at Marvin Harrison

0:36:05.480 --> 0:36:08.040
<v Speaker 5>Junior's draft profile, and you know they always put weaknesses.

0:36:08.640 --> 0:36:11.719
<v Speaker 5>The person analyzing said, we're really nitpicking here because there

0:36:11.760 --> 0:36:14.239
<v Speaker 5>aren't any. This is one of our complete receivers ever

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 5>to come out of college football. It was the sure

0:36:16.840 --> 0:36:20.560
<v Speaker 5>thing of wide receivers like Trevor Lawrence was to quarterbacks.

0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Jadevian Clowney is back with the Texans and that defense

0:36:26.960 --> 0:36:31.120
<v Speaker 2>is already the best in football with Daniel Hunter and

0:36:31.239 --> 0:36:35.160
<v Speaker 2>Stingley and Will Anderson. But Clowney quietly had eight and

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:38.880
<v Speaker 2>a half sacks for the Cowboys last season. Now it

0:36:38.920 --> 0:36:43.680
<v Speaker 2>comes down to c J. Stroud because David Montgomery, Nico Collins,

0:36:43.880 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Jayden Higgins, Tank Dell you got everything there. This could

0:36:49.760 --> 0:36:54.280
<v Speaker 2>be a super Bowl caliber team. It's just you know, CJ.

0:36:54.400 --> 0:36:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Stroud can't lose games for you. Last year and the

0:36:57.040 --> 0:37:00.279
<v Speaker 2>loss to the Patriots, he completed forty two percent of

0:37:00.280 --> 0:37:06.319
<v Speaker 2>his passes, four interceptions, finish the postseason, two touchdowns, seven turnovers.

0:37:07.400 --> 0:37:07.839
<v Speaker 3>That's it.

0:37:09.080 --> 0:37:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Probably simplify it and just say you got to have

0:37:12.880 --> 0:37:16.240
<v Speaker 2>a quality year. You know, I'm not asking for thirty

0:37:16.280 --> 0:37:20.520
<v Speaker 2>five touchdowns, but if you can give me, I want

0:37:20.520 --> 0:37:24.600
<v Speaker 2>to know the touchdown to interception and fumble ratio because

0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:27.960
<v Speaker 2>if I can get good numbers there, I can't have

0:37:28.080 --> 0:37:31.120
<v Speaker 2>my defense be putting us in a position to win.

0:37:31.600 --> 0:37:34.160
<v Speaker 2>You're putting us in a position to lose. Yeapaul.

0:37:34.520 --> 0:37:34.840
<v Speaker 12>CJ.

0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:38.520
<v Speaker 5>Stroud is a rookie. Fifteen starts, forty one hundred yards,

0:37:38.560 --> 0:37:41.440
<v Speaker 5>twenty three touchdowns. He was eighth for MVP as a

0:37:41.520 --> 0:37:43.279
<v Speaker 5>rookie and cleaned up for Rookie of the Year.

0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:48.560
<v Speaker 2>And you'll take those numbers if you play clean games.

0:37:48.600 --> 0:37:51.239
<v Speaker 2>That's what you're asking for. You don't have to win them,

0:37:51.680 --> 0:37:55.280
<v Speaker 2>just don't lose them. But I think the Texans Texan's

0:37:55.320 --> 0:37:57.960
<v Speaker 2>going to be in that conversation for best team in

0:37:58.000 --> 0:37:58.600
<v Speaker 2>the AFC.

0:37:58.840 --> 0:37:59.520
<v Speaker 3>Really feel it.

0:38:00.160 --> 0:38:02.279
<v Speaker 2>Buddha in San Francisco, Hi, Buddha, what do you have

0:38:02.400 --> 0:38:02.680
<v Speaker 2>for me?

0:38:05.840 --> 0:38:11.600
<v Speaker 10>Happy Monday? Boys, Let's go Dodger Nation. Baby, wasn't me Dan,

0:38:11.840 --> 0:38:14.280
<v Speaker 10>or did Solomon in LA sound like Dave Roberts?

0:38:14.280 --> 0:38:14.840
<v Speaker 3>That was wild?

0:38:15.280 --> 0:38:17.799
<v Speaker 13>But my phone Dan on Saturday was blowing up.

0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:21.280
<v Speaker 10>And when we when I saw that we acquired Terrek School,

0:38:21.400 --> 0:38:22.360
<v Speaker 10>I just chuckled.

0:38:22.400 --> 0:38:24.560
<v Speaker 13>It's like like us getting.

0:38:24.239 --> 0:38:26.640
<v Speaker 10>Schoobls, like Warren Buffen finding one hundred dollars bill in

0:38:26.640 --> 0:38:29.719
<v Speaker 10>the sidewalk man, and like to everyone who's upset about this,

0:38:29.960 --> 0:38:31.600
<v Speaker 10>like he wanted to.

0:38:31.520 --> 0:38:32.799
<v Speaker 13>Come and he picked us.

0:38:33.000 --> 0:38:34.879
<v Speaker 10>You know, I mean, we still have to go out

0:38:34.920 --> 0:38:36.439
<v Speaker 10>and play the games and win them.

0:38:36.760 --> 0:38:39.200
<v Speaker 13>Nothing is promised, and it's not like we're.

0:38:39.080 --> 0:38:42.520
<v Speaker 10>Out here banging on trash cans. Fritzy and best of

0:38:42.600 --> 0:38:46.880
<v Speaker 10>the weekend, Dan, Los Angeles Avengers getting stronger and bolstering

0:38:46.960 --> 0:38:49.680
<v Speaker 10>up their bullpen with tarre Scoobel and shout out to

0:38:49.800 --> 0:38:53.360
<v Speaker 10>Dodger front house front the front office man in the

0:38:53.400 --> 0:38:56.279
<v Speaker 10>farm system it's always been the class of the major

0:38:56.360 --> 0:39:01.319
<v Speaker 10>leagues and worst of the weekend. Then w I mean,

0:39:01.360 --> 0:39:03.560
<v Speaker 10>it's just been a bad summer for them. It's starting

0:39:03.560 --> 0:39:07.000
<v Speaker 10>to feel like reality TV when some basketball games sprinkled

0:39:07.040 --> 0:39:07.719
<v Speaker 10>in between.

0:39:07.480 --> 0:39:10.160
<v Speaker 13>The drama that's going on all the time.

0:39:10.560 --> 0:39:11.319
<v Speaker 3>It's just not.

0:39:13.600 --> 0:39:18.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thank you, Buddhah Edgar and Anaheim Hi Edgar, what

0:39:18.320 --> 0:39:18.920
<v Speaker 2>do you have for me?

0:39:21.360 --> 0:39:21.560
<v Speaker 1>Hey?

0:39:21.680 --> 0:39:23.520
<v Speaker 17>Dan, just want to let people you know, being a

0:39:23.640 --> 0:39:26.400
<v Speaker 17>Dodger n it has no been glory. You know, I

0:39:26.440 --> 0:39:29.239
<v Speaker 17>grew up in the nineties watching a horrible Dodger team

0:39:29.360 --> 0:39:32.320
<v Speaker 17>year after year after your last place, last place.

0:39:32.920 --> 0:39:36.359
<v Speaker 18>So this this nowadays, you know, everybody thinks it's easy,

0:39:36.400 --> 0:39:38.600
<v Speaker 18>and that's not easy. Remember, we lost a bunch of

0:39:38.600 --> 0:39:42.400
<v Speaker 18>World Series. We choked a lot. We were getting clown

0:39:42.440 --> 0:39:45.520
<v Speaker 18>out every time by a bunch of fans all over baseball.

0:39:45.880 --> 0:39:47.920
<v Speaker 18>So now that we're actually winning, we're getting a lot

0:39:47.920 --> 0:39:50.520
<v Speaker 18>of hate that we're buying championship. We're not like this

0:39:50.640 --> 0:39:53.520
<v Speaker 18>guy that they traded for goog Ball. We got him

0:39:53.520 --> 0:39:58.480
<v Speaker 18>from Chicago Cubs. That was your hope. It wasn't even

0:39:58.560 --> 0:40:01.480
<v Speaker 18>our draft pick. So it's management doing the job too.

0:40:01.520 --> 0:40:03.560
<v Speaker 18>It's not all money money's not everything.

0:40:03.600 --> 0:40:04.360
<v Speaker 13>Look at the Mets.

0:40:04.440 --> 0:40:05.760
<v Speaker 18>The Mets, they're freaking horrible.

0:40:08.200 --> 0:40:11.560
<v Speaker 2>Yes they are, Yes, the number one payroll in baseball,

0:40:12.239 --> 0:40:13.959
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know if it's gonna get any better

0:40:14.000 --> 0:40:17.360
<v Speaker 2>anytime soon. There, Adam and Michigan. Hi, Adam, what do

0:40:17.360 --> 0:40:17.920
<v Speaker 2>you have for me?

0:40:19.600 --> 0:40:23.400
<v Speaker 19>Hey? So, Gus and Buddha are not wrong about the Dodgers.

0:40:23.520 --> 0:40:26.520
<v Speaker 19>The rest of the league just as malpractice. They are

0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:31.160
<v Speaker 19>just phenomenally run and they're doing it like everybody should

0:40:31.160 --> 0:40:34.520
<v Speaker 19>just like take notes. But going back to your conversation

0:40:34.600 --> 0:40:37.800
<v Speaker 19>with Tim Kirchin, I had never heard about managers being

0:40:37.840 --> 0:40:41.160
<v Speaker 19>traded like that, and that's mind blowing. Is there an

0:40:41.320 --> 0:40:46.399
<v Speaker 19>NFL trade of two head coaches that we could love

0:40:46.480 --> 0:40:46.920
<v Speaker 19>to see?

0:40:47.600 --> 0:40:49.440
<v Speaker 14>Like you got to punter in on that.

0:40:50.360 --> 0:40:54.200
<v Speaker 2>Who would be the number one coach or manager traded? Like,

0:40:54.239 --> 0:40:58.480
<v Speaker 2>if you were going to trade a coach, Sean McVay

0:40:58.560 --> 0:41:02.520
<v Speaker 2>would probably be high on that list. Mike McDonald, you

0:41:02.640 --> 0:41:06.759
<v Speaker 2>just won a Super Bowl, yes, Marvin Andy Reid, Andy Reid, Yeah,

0:41:07.000 --> 0:41:11.759
<v Speaker 2>Andy Reid n No. Too old as far as how

0:41:11.800 --> 0:41:14.560
<v Speaker 2>long he meaning, I don't know how much time he's

0:41:14.600 --> 0:41:17.640
<v Speaker 2>going to be coaching, right, I mean, he's too old.

0:41:17.680 --> 0:41:19.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean you know what I mean.

0:41:19.880 --> 0:41:20.319
<v Speaker 3>I got you.

0:41:21.080 --> 0:41:25.279
<v Speaker 2>He's coaching Old Todd. You're in the confessional. Start us

0:41:25.320 --> 0:41:27.680
<v Speaker 2>off on this Monday best and worst of the weekend.

0:41:27.719 --> 0:41:30.560
<v Speaker 2>What you saw that you liked, you didn't like. We'll

0:41:30.600 --> 0:41:33.799
<v Speaker 2>talk to Larry Fitzgerald of the Cardinals. He'll join us

0:41:33.840 --> 0:41:35.319
<v Speaker 2>next Dan Patrick Show.
