And 35 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: I said, wow, if somebody could say that at my funeral, Doug, 36 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 3: I give you first DIBs. Maybe buyer one of you 37 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 3: two whoever's still living when I pass say that at 38 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 3: my funeral, no problem. 39 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: I say that because Jason told us, hey, team not, 40 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: this team's not that good. And I'm like, come on, man, 41 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: everybody else says it's an all star team. He's like, 42 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: you know, middle relief's not good, and there's these gigantic 43 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: hitting droughts. And when you're a guy who tree tops 44 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: sports like baseball, tree top, meaning you just know the 45 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: top stuff. You don't get deep into layers. It's kind 46 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: of what most of us do. Unlike some, I don't profess. 47 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: Some in our position as a radio host profess to 48 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: know things about sports we don't actually know about. We 49 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: don't pay attention to every day. I think it's one 50 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: of the biggest mistakes that sports radio, sports television host 51 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: is a lot of times you don't know. So one 52 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: you can ask, like if you have a PA or 53 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: other people, But watching and making overarching statements when you've 54 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: only watched a couple of games, especially postseason games, it's 55 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: it's not smart because ultimately you'll get exposed to the 56 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: people that matter the most, the hardcore sports fans. So 57 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: I don't profess to know everything about the Dodgers. I 58 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: do lean on Jay s do a lot. I lean 59 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: on my baseball friends a lot. But this is a 60 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: pronounced trout at the worst possible time, it has exposed 61 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers and then you factor in that they looked 62 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: not only were they were they completely lost at the plate. 63 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you go with four wild pitches and some 64 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: other misplayed balls, like what is going on? It felt 65 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: like a team that is completely discombobulated, completely discombobulated. And 66 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,119 Speaker 1: then you see these numbers. Mooki's hidden one thirty, He's 67 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: three for twenty three in the World Series with no 68 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: extra base hits. Here's Mookie Betts putting it bluntly on 69 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: his performance today. 70 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 4: I don't want to speak on anybody else, but for 71 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: me personally, I've just been terrible. 72 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 5: I've been terrible, and there's no UH. 73 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 6: I wish it was from lack of effort, I really do, 74 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 6: but it's not so I don't have any answers. 75 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: Honestly, that's the most honest, fourth right SoundBite from a 76 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: star player I can remember hearing. There was no excuses 77 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: offered up, there was no nothing. I just haven't been 78 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: good enough. Haven't been good enough. The Dodgers offense in 79 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: the regular season UH produced five point nine runs a game. 80 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: In the World Series three point six. Their OPS was 81 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: point seven to six eight in the World Series point 82 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: sixty five. Their home run percentage down slightly from three 83 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: point nine percent to three point seven percent. K percentage 84 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: is up as well, just not hitting, And yesterday it 85 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: was a I think twenty two year old Treya Savage. 86 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 1: He was asked about his journey to this point. 87 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 4: At any point when you walk out the game starting, 88 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 4: do you ever allow yourself to think, Hey, they're fifty 89 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 4: two thousand people here, I'm pitching the show at ho 90 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 4: Tani Seven months ago, I was pitching a three hundred 91 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 4: fans in front of me in Jupiter. 92 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a crazy world, crazy world. 93 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 2: Hollywood couldn't have made it this good. So just being 94 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 2: a part of this, I'm just very blessed. 95 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: Hey, can we just again? I don't hate to tell 96 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: you say I told you so, but this is like 97 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: the greatest day in Jason Stewart's life. 98 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 5: Right. 99 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: We have that cheesy Hollywood couldn't, couldn't, couldn't write this 100 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: script line, which Jason has personally pointed out for ever, 101 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: how just cornball that line is. Then you have the 102 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: fact that he's proven right on the dot not being 103 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: as good, especially with their lineup as advertised, and the 104 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: curmudgeon is having himself a day even though his team 105 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: is one game away from losing another World Series. That's 106 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: a that wild kind of day for you. Jason. 107 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that there's a there's a couple of 108 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 3: things working here, and I want to read I can't 109 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 3: put it any better. So there's a Dodger fan that 110 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 3: we follow each other online and a Dodger's Andrew, and 111 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 3: this sums up I think a lot of what I've 112 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 3: been saying and what Dodger fans how they feel today. 113 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 3: He says, despite the national media narrative of the mighty Dodgers, 114 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 3: Dodger fans who watch this team all season know how 115 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 3: flawed they are, and all those flaws are being exposed 116 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 3: in this series. I couldn't put it any better. And 117 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 3: I've been trying to tell people that, and I think 118 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 3: that with the national media and the people that just 119 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 3: don't quite follow baseball, they see, Uh, there was this 120 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 3: facade of success, right There was this anomaly where pitchers 121 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 3: were throwing complete games and deep into games, and it 122 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 3: was just a facade. Underneath those great performances, the offense 123 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: has not done anything. The greatest World Series game I've 124 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 3: ever witnessed, maybe the great greatest game I'll ever see 125 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 3: in my Lifetime on Monday Night was filled with flaws 126 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 3: on offense. Some of the undercovered things that never were 127 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 3: reported was that the bou Jays manager took out half 128 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 3: of his offense in the eighth inning. They had to 129 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 3: play a full game with half of their offense gone. 130 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 3: The Dodgers had all their ones in and they couldn't 131 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: put anything on the board for nine innings until Freddie 132 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 3: Freeman does the heroics. But underneath all of those amazing 133 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 3: stories was a significantly flawed offense. And I don't know 134 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: if let's just hope that the next pitcher throws a 135 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: complete game as a winning championship strategy. 136 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna draw a parallel, okay, and tell me if 137 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: this works for you guys. So tonight we play Saint Norbert. 138 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 1: Saint Norbert is the Division III program really good one? 139 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: Coach by Gary Gresh. Gary was a great player here 140 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: playing for Dick Bennett. Last year we played. Last year 141 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: we're played Saint Norbert and they were like a twenty 142 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: five win team in Division three, high level Division three, 143 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: and we pummeled them. But at after the game and 144 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: anytime I've watched the film and watched the film leading up, 145 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: I know we actually weren't very good. They I don't 146 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: know if we beat him or if it's close. Anthony Roy, 147 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: who was my best player last year, the nation's late 148 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: scorer again because these games the scores don't get reported. 149 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys know this. He made 150 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: his first twelve three pointers. He had forty six points 151 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: in twenty eight minutes. It was the most amazing thing 152 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. But it totally hid the fact that 153 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: we stunk outside of Anthony Roy. Like we won by thirty, 154 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: but we weren't very good. We just had one guy 155 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: that was light years better than everybody else in the 156 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: floor and played at an unbelievable level. And their style 157 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: of defense, which kind of dares you to shoot threes. First, 158 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: they started at three point line, and then they got 159 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: close to him, so he backed up to the NBA line, 160 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: then he backed up to near mid court, and he 161 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: just couldn't miss. And the point is what exactly, I 162 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: know exactly what you're talking about, Jason, Where we get 163 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: so caught up in these magnificent performances, but underneath the hood, 164 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: you're like, ooh, ooh, the Dodgers haven't done anything outside 165 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: of Otani, and when Otani isn't nine for nine and 166 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 1: constantly on base and putting constant pressure. And even with 167 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: the constant pressure, even all the times he was walked, 168 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: Mookie didn't do anything behind him. And Freddy Freeman, though 169 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: he hit the ball hard several other times, it took 170 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: him until the eighteenth inning and hit went out of 171 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: the park. So I know exactly what you're talking about. 172 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: Experience that myself, and it's the reason I have such 173 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: kind of anxiety over that. But there is this amazing 174 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: decision that we all make in our minds. And Jason, obviously, 175 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: when you're a Dodger fan and when you've said all 176 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: of these things, the decision has been made in your mind, Buyer, 177 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: let me ask you what decision you make in your mind? 178 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: Do you choose? And because it is a choice, do 179 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: you choose to go? God, the Dodgers have choked in 180 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: this thing. How did they not see the holes in 181 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: their lineup? Or do you see how awesome are the 182 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: Blue Jays? I mean they throw out some kid out 183 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: there who was you know, throwing in Jupiter a couple 184 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: months ago, and now he's mowing down the best lineup 185 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: in the bigs. It really is a mental choice that 186 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: you make. What's your mental choice. 187 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 2: Of those two options. 188 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 7: I would side with the Blue Jays and getting the 189 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 7: hit because the only reason I say that, And I'm 190 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 7: sure there can be an argument made for both sides. 191 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 7: But after Game three, I thought Toronto was really behind 192 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 7: the eight ball. I even said in these studios, in 193 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 7: these hallways, off the air, I come, man, I just 194 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 7: I don't know how Toronto's gonna be able to back 195 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 7: up and come back from what happened on Game three. 196 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 2: And what do they do? 197 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 7: They win Game four last night, three pitches in, they're 198 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 7: up to nothing in the game, and it didn't seem 199 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 7: to it didn't seem to bother them. So I would 200 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 7: side with the Blue Jays aspect of it. 201 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's a very reasonable thing. Like you it's 202 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: you want to do half four or half empty whatever, 203 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: you know, Because like if you're a Dodger fan, you're like, 204 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: are you kidn me? Some guy wasn't on the big 205 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: league roster now was like Bowie us down in the 206 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: World Series. Whereas if you're like a fan of baseball, 207 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: like can you believe this? This kid comes in and 208 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: that about of pressure and pitches. Awesome. Awesome. It's a 209 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: mental choice that you make and obviously some of it 210 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: is always swayed. If you have a if you have 211 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: a dog in the fight. If you have a dog 212 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: in the fight. 213 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 8: This is the best of the Don dot Leaf Show 214 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 8: on Fox Sports Radio. 215 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: What up with your Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio? 216 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app Welcome in.

What were you doing 314 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 3: in the fall of nineteen ninety two? 315 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: Ooh, I was a dude. Three three. I was a 316 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: sophomore in high school. 317 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 3: There you go. I was a sophomore in college. I 318 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: was a sophomore in college. So that tells the listeners 319 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 3: the tears of age that we are. 320 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 2: Dan, where were you sophomore in high school? 321 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 3: Okay, you guys are the same age your birthday. 322 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm older. 323 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:10,479 Speaker 5: He's a year older though. 324 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 3: Okay, But nineteen ninety two, what a year in sports? 325 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 3: Holy crap. Almost to this day, thirty three years ago, 326 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 3: the Toronto Blue Jays won their first World Series team, 327 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 3: the Toronto Blue Jays first ever World Series title. That 328 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 3: is a story, but maybe the sub story is the 329 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,479 Speaker 3: Atlanta Braves, because in the last couple of days I 330 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 3: have I have heard my team, the Dodgers, referred to 331 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 3: as the nineties Braves, and that's a pejorative, that's not 332 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 3: a compliment. That means that they had the best team 333 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 3: in baseball for many, many years and cast it in once. 334 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 3: So the Braves in their second World Series trip in 335 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 3: two years, they just got done getting beat by the 336 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 3: Twins in ninety one, remember, and then they played the 337 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 3: Jayson ninety two and lost in six games. What a 338 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 3: thriller Game six was, though, I'll tell you what. Devon 339 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 3: White had a big night, Roberto even Dave Winfield, all 340 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 3: of these Hall of famers, Mike Timlin closed out the game. 341 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 3: That Tom Hankey blewe pause, David kne started the game. 342 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 3: Steve Avery for the Braves. And for those who forget 343 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 3: the names on the Braves, remember Otis Nixon, Yeah, twenty nine, 344 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 3: going on seventy eight. Yes, Deon Sander. 345 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: Otis Otis, by the way, is the only guy that 346 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: attacks the old black don't crack. Yeah that he didn't crack, 347 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: but it was definitely withered. 348 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 3: Deon Sanders is the head coach at Colorado. A lot 349 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 3: of people would not know that thirty three years ago. 350 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 3: Today he was losing a World Series with the Braves. 351 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 3: Think about that one, Sid Breem, Mark lemke oh, Terry Pendleton, 352 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 3: just to name a few. Anyways, nineteen ninety two, what 353 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 3: a fall in sports, Dan, What what strikes your fancy 354 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 3: most about nineteen ninety two? 355 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: So this is gonna shock you. 356 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 7: Nineteen ninety two probably the best year of my childhood. 357 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 7: Just so much fun. I went to a junior high, 358 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 7: so the freshmen were the king of the school. So 359 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 7: the first half of ninety two I was a freshman. 360 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 7: A lot of fun, but sports wise, absolute heartbreak in 361 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 7: the NFL. The Seahawks won two games that year, and 362 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 7: Cortes Kennedy was the NFL's defensive Player of the Year 363 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 7: for a Seahawks team that ended up winning two games. 364 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 7: I remember they beat the Broncos on Monday Night Football. 365 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 7: It was their second win of the season. Pretty crazy, 366 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 7: but they stunk sports wise that NFL season. By the way, 367 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 7: the emergence of the Dallas Cowboys is the power that 368 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 7: they turned in to be under Jimmy Johnson. I also 369 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 7: will say, sports wise, my worst loss is a sports fan, 370 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 7: no doubt about it. Nineteen ninety two Regional Final Southeast 371 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 7: Regional Lexington, Kentucky. A day after Christian Lightner and Duke 372 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 7: upset Kentucky. Or beat Kentucky. On that last second shot 373 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 7: by Lightner, Ohio State had a chance to punch their 374 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 7: ticket to the Final Four. They had beaten Michigan twice 375 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 7: in the regular season. That Michigan team, of course, known 376 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 7: as the Fab Five, with their five freshmen, Ohio State 377 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 7: had a chance to win it. At the end of regulation, 378 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 7: Jimmy Jackson lost control of the ball. It somehow ended 379 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 7: up in the hands of Chris Gent along the baseline 380 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 7: and gent panicked shot. The ball didn't have a chance 381 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 7: to go in and Michigan won in overtime. They ended 382 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 7: up going to the Final Four. Well, thank goodness, they 383 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 7: lost to Duke in the national Championship game. I love Duke, 384 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 7: but yes, my worst loss as a sports fan. I 385 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 7: loved that Ohio State basketball team. 386 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: One of the greatest sporting moments of my childhood was 387 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety two at the Rose Bowl. It was 388 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: not the Rose Bull. You're like, what, No, it was 389 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: not the Rose Bull. It was USC taken on UCLA. 390 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: USC was ranked fifteenth in the country. UCLA was what 391 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: the kids say mid right mid. They were five and 392 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: five at the time. I don't know if you guys 393 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: remember the story, but they started a quarterback named John Barnes. 394 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: John Barnes was a walk on at San Diego State 395 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: AH and he ended up starting for the Bruins against 396 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: starting for the Bruins all season long and started against USC. 397 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: He had a wide receiver that you may have heard of, 398 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: even though he was kind of a bust in the NFL. 399 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 1: It was JJ Stokes. And again I don't know the 400 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: exact stats, but I want to say John Barnes trew 401 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: for like four hundred yards and JJ Stokes had like 402 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: three hundred yards receiving. But like a former walk on, 403 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: lighting up USC at the Rose Bowl was awesome. Thirty 404 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: eight thirty seven, Hey thirty. USC's quarterback was Rob Johnson, 405 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,479 Speaker 1: and Rob Johnson, by the way, led his team on 406 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: what should have been a game winning drive, a sixty 407 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: nine yard drive, only to have John Barnes hit JJ 408 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: Stokes in a ninety yard touchdown reception. JJ Stokes had 409 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: six receptions for two hundred and sixty three yards two 410 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: hundred sixty three yards on six catches. I've never seen 411 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: anything like it since it was unbelievable anyway, Again, that's 412 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: just personal, personal moment. 413 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 3: How many notable players on that USC team? John oh A, Ton, 414 00:22:54,400 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: Tony Besselli, Willie McGuinness, Jason Seahorn. Wow, I want to 415 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 3: say JJ Stokes. Guys, if you would say his claim 416 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 3: to fame he like meets people in bars and stuff, 417 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 3: would it be I'm the guy who uh Romanowski is 418 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 3: spit in the face of in the NFL. 419 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: No, he was the guy who was supposed to be 420 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice's replacement and that did not work. 421 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 7: You want to know what else happened in ninety two 422 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 7: in college football? Yes, sir, first ever conference championship game, Yes, 423 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 7: SEC Alabama beat Matthews in Florida. Yes, in Birmingham. I 424 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 7: believe it. 425 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: Was How much have we evolved in that they played 426 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: that game in Birmingham? 427 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think I think that was the I think 428 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 2: that was the case. 429 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: It is, yes, side of the That's where because that's 430 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: where the conference was located, the conference office is located. 431 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: That's where they played the Iron Bowl. Auburn played Alabama 432 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 1: there every year and that was the heartbeat of the conference. 433 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 7: Good poll and Alabama won the national title. George Tige, 434 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 7: Geene Stallings, Yes, this was Jean. 435 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 3: I kind of feel the need to bring up the 436 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 3: Dream Team in Barcelona that summer, just to get such 437 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 3: a monumental sports occurrence. But so much has been written 438 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 3: about it, documentaries and I'm almost dream teamed out and 439 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 3: it's thirty three years later. But in the time living 440 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 3: through that, that was pretty special for the kids out 441 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 3: there listening right now. There was a time when the 442 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 3: Olympics would not accept professional athletes into the games, so 443 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,959 Speaker 3: these teams were made up of college stars and the 444 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 3: US have been getting their ass kick right. 445 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, let me let me, let me help 446 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: you here. Okay, the US was the only one. They 447 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: couldn't have pros in it. The other ones did because 448 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: they could say they were club teams and act like 449 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: they were amateurs. So in nineteen eighty eight, the late 450 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: great John Thompson had a team. It wasn't very good, 451 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: they couldn't shoot, and they got beat by the Soviet Union. 452 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: But the Soviet Union had Lithuanian players obviously had Russian 453 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: players as well, so it was the first time that 454 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 1: we matched our pros with their pros, and it was 455 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: it was a celebration of the sports, celebration of American basketball. 456 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: But it was an absolute blood letting, blood letting. Can 457 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: anybody remember anything else about the Summer Olympics, that's my question. 458 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 3: It was the first Olympics after the end of the 459 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 3: Cold War, first Olympics after the end of the Cold War. 460 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so again, it coincided with the fact that Russia 461 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: was broken up, right, And I don't remember if Yugoslavia 462 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: was broken up. I think Slovenia was in at that time, 463 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: so I think Yugoslavia broke up as well. 464 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 7: Quick golf note, one of the most popular players that 465 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 7: we've ever seen on tour ended up claiming his first 466 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 7: and only major that year. The ball stayed up on 467 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 7: the bank at the twelfth hole for Fred Couples. He 468 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 7: went on to win the Masters in nineteen ninety two. 469 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: Right here, Fred Keble still has great hair. 470 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 3: My favorite part about that exchange was that Dan told 471 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 3: Doug what he thinks of Balkan geopolitics by just going 472 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 3: right into golf. He wanted nothing to do with the 473 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 3: Yugoslavia Serbia. 474 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 7: I'll give you the real I'll give you the real backstory. 475 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,959 Speaker 7: I had to I had to quickly get in before. 476 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 7: We've all seen that video of Michael Jordan bombing his 477 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 7: head with his headphones. In that video, he was listening 478 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 7: to this at that time. No, no, you're right. I saw 479 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 7: that exact video Dan, and I'll tell you what. He 480 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 7: had a walkman on and he was strutting to it 481 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 7: was People thought it was like a kind of a 482 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 7: dance tune, but no, it was actually this song. 483 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: Wow, this is under the. 484 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: Bridge Take Me all the Way. It wasn't the biggest 485 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 1: song of the year, though it. 486 00:26:55,119 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 3: Was number one on the charts for seven weeks. Charged 487 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: for the most punk band. 488 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 6: It finished eighth. It was number one, but I guess 489 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 6: it finished eighth, and it's what it's average. 490 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 3: The Red Hot Choice Numbers was a ska punk underground 491 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 3: band from Los Angeles, and they hit it big. I 492 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 3: have often said that this is the point in time 493 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 3: under the Bridge. That was the point part time when 494 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 3: we had to put up with another thirty plus years 495 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 3: of garbage from Red Hot Chili Pepper Come on now, 496 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 3: maybe my least favorite band.

It's just look the Eagles of 670 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 9: they know how to handle social situations pretty well. 671 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 5: They don't make a big deal out of it. 672 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 9: But the problem is, and this is you know what, 673 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 9: as one person said to me, when you're off, when 674 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 9: you're passing him struggling, it doesn't help your relationship with 675 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 9: a quarterback when you make comments about I need to 676 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 9: get the football repeatedly, and the one that he made 677 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 9: two weeks ago is like, he's getting the ball, but 678 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 9: I really need the ball. It was more about he 679 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 9: needs the ball where he's supposed to be getting the ball, 680 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 9: not off a scramble and and a play that breaks down, 681 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 9: just like you see with Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen. 682 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 9: That's what That's what AJ wants. He wants the ball. 683 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 9: He just he's not getting it, and that that's where 684 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 9: he's frustrated because you know he's getting up the team. 685 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 1: I understand how how much does it affect this group? 686 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 5: Doesn't he doesn't at all. They want a super ball 687 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 5: with him. 688 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 9: By the way, he made some comments last year, he 689 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 9: doesn't walk away, by the way, I'll give him credit, 690 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 9: he doesn't really walk him back. 691 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 5: He'll say, hey, I shouldn't have done that, but I'll 692 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 5: keep doing it. But he doesn't. 693 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 9: He never said I was wrong about what I said. 694 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 9: He just he'll say he'll he'll admit that it's probably 695 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 9: not a great idea, but it doesn't divide the team. 696 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 9: This is not this is not going back to two 697 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 9: thousand and four, warth care Lowans and down McNabb. 698 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 1: It's not stug Gottlieb show here on Fox Sports Tradio. Okay, 699 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: we got Lamar back in Baltimore. This is we're getting 700 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: to must win territory at Baltimore. And you got Miami 701 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: coming off an outstanding performance at least offensively, but their 702 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:28,720 Speaker 1: defense has been in shambles. It's been in shambles. Feels 703 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 1: like a great night for the Ravens. They're a touchdown 704 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: and a hook seven and a half point. 705 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot. 706 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 9: Yeah, so a couple of things here. Yeah, Baltimore. They 707 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 9: got to start turning things around. You know, they at 708 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 9: one point, Doug, they had seven defensive starters out, Mattabookie, 709 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 9: their best defensive players out for the season, and they 710 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 9: have another d lineman is also out for the season. 711 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 9: So they've had a lot of injuries. The Jay year 712 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 9: Alexander Sunning has not worked at all. He's been a 713 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 9: healthy and actor for most of the season. They got 714 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 9: to play better defensively. They've been awful on the back end. 715 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,359 Speaker 9: They're giving the most big plays in the National Football League. 716 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 9: That's got to stop. The hope is that off the 717 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 9: buy that they're healthier, and they are. 718 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 5: You met. 719 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 9: Lamar's definitely in the lineup. Took all the ones, all 720 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 9: the work and their walkthroughs. You don't really have a 721 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 9: practice on a short week. You have walkthroughs and everything's good. 722 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 9: He's ready to go. With his right hamstring injury. They 723 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 9: got to get him when he plays. By the way, 724 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 9: Derek Henry is going to be better. It's hard because 725 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 9: Lamar is an extension of the running game. So yeah, 726 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 9: they should have no problem against Miami Knight. Now, one 727 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 9: thing I want to look at here, and you know 728 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 9: we're mentioning the Ravens, that the Steelers are really playing 729 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 9: poorly right now defensively. If Baltimore wins this week with 730 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 9: what Pittsburgh's got going on defensively, which is they're struggling 731 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 9: badly on the back end. And by the way, the 732 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 9: Colts come into Pittsburgh this see this Sunday, and that's 733 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,439 Speaker 9: a game I really feel like when this division could 734 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 9: be very interesting to go down the stretch. 735 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: The no question about it. Speaking of Pittsburgh, what's wrong there? 736 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: I just they went all in on this year and 737 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,280 Speaker 1: they're just the defense. Everybody, he says, the defensive backfield 738 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 1: but they're not. Also, they're not putting pressure either on 739 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 1: the on the quarterback, so it can't. 740 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 9: Hide it correct, all right, So here's what I'm told. 741 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 9: The communication in the back end has been poor Darius Slay, 742 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 9: the veteran corner. I don't know, they don't make the 743 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 9: Hall of Fame, but he's he's been a terrific player 744 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 9: over the years. Super Bowl winner with Philly is not 745 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 9: he's just lost his step. As one personal source told me, 746 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 9: you Joey Porter, he you know, he was hurt earlier 747 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 9: this season. 748 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 5: He's fine. They're struggling at safety. 749 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 9: To Shaun Elliotte of the starting safety, he's going to 750 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 9: be out of it with a knee injury. And you're right. 751 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 9: Their pass rush is not quite where they thought it 752 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 9: would be. And you add it up and they're not. 753 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 5: You know. 754 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 9: The other thing is, yes, Rogers is playing fine. Their 755 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 9: offense is just okay. It's it's better average, but it's 756 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 9: not great and it can't carry a defense that was 757 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 9: carrying the offense earlier. So they're folding right now. Now 758 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 9: watch them for the trade deadline, by the way, for 759 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 9: a wide receiver. They are looking for speed opposite DK Metcalf. 760 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: I'm told, yeah, they need anything opposite Dk Metcalf. They 761 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: have like fifteen tight ends and receiver. It's just the 762 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 1: most bizarre build up of a team. But bizarre building 763 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: of a team that yeah, yeah, different to say the least. 764 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 1: This is the Doug Gotlib Show. You're listening to Fox 765 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:22,240 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Okay, So here's here's the big question. Dolphins 766 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: at two and six, is there every Mike me Daniel 767 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: that they would obviously have to turn around? But what 768 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: about Tua? What is what does Tua's future look like? 769 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 9: Well, it depends on several factors. Who's going to be 770 00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 9: the general manager. It's Chris Greer going to keep his job. 771 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 9: Okay to a play by the way, he's phenomenal last week. Yeah, 772 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 9: but is he He's not a match for everybody. It's 773 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 9: when you look at his contract, Doug. He's signed through 774 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 9: twenty twenty eight. There's a lot of guaranteed money next year. 775 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 5: Uh, it's it's it's. 776 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 9: A situation where beauty is in the eye of beholder. 777 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 9: Most most teams didn't love to it for the draft. 778 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, it it's. 779 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 9: Look, it's not a terrible contractor trade, but I don't 780 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 9: see a big trade market for him going into March. 781 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:14,959 Speaker 5: Forget it now, I'm talking about March. 782 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 9: And when you look at that team, Tyre Kill's probably 783 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 9: played his last down for the Dolphins. That could get 784 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 9: out of the contract fairly easily. Yep, there's an expectation 785 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 9: around the league that they're gonna be moving a bunch 786 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 9: of players on Tuesday. They deny that they're having a 787 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 9: fire sale, but other teams tell me differently. 788 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 1: To be honest with ye, I think that would make 789 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 1: a ton of sense. And obviously if you get beat 790 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: badly tonight, all that changes. What's the feeling around the league. 791 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,760 Speaker 1: There's there's talks in Indie about re upping Danny Dimes. 792 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 9: Yes, he is so far ahead Doug he is. I 793 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 9: vote in two poles. One of them is a profile 794 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 9: bar Road Association. He will be my most improved offensive player. Now, 795 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 9: that's if he continues to play at this high level. 796 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 9: See here's shirting. You've got the running game. Jonathan Taylor, 797 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 9: He's kind of rebounded from a couple of subpar years, 798 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 9: but mostly because he was hurt. They need the contract 799 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 9: hold out. He's back better never by the way, their 800 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 9: offensive line is playing better than expected with changes in 801 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 9: the on the interior at center and right guard. That's 802 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 9: worked out better than they expected. Their defense, though they've 803 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 9: had injuries in the back end, it's playing with great discipline. 804 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 9: And you know what's interesting, lou Anarromo, who is fired 805 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 9: by the Bengals defense coordinator. They were bad last season. 806 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 9: They were actually non competitive times. Teams would tell me, 807 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 9: so you could understand why I got fired. He's probably 808 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 9: my vote for a defensive coach of the Year. He's 809 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 9: been phenomenal. It's it's kind of everything. So getting back 810 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 9: to Daniel Jones, yeah, it Now, the thing is, you 811 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 9: got to do a contract like the like the Giants did, 812 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 9: two years of fully guaranteed money. Then you got to 813 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 9: be able to get out of the contract for two years. 814 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,479 Speaker 9: You just Daniel Jones give him. I give him credit. 815 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 5: He's healthy. By the way. 816 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 9: They're protecting them the past group between Pittman, Tyler Warren, 817 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,879 Speaker 9: who's been a great rookie. We mentioned Jonathan Taylor. They're 818 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 9: keeping on schedule. They don't have to throw the ball 819 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 9: a lot. And Shane Steike is one of the best 820 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 9: play Collis and quarterback developers look at the job that 821 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 9: he did with Jalen Hurts. Hurts has not been the 822 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 9: same since twenty twenty two with Steak and calling. 823 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,240 Speaker 5: The plays with the Eagles. 824 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 9: So it's all looking good, man, And this is a 825 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 9: team no one saw being this good. 826 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:13,359 Speaker 5: I can tell you that. 827 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 1: No, No, and they're really I mean, Jonathan Taylor's been amazing. 828 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 5: But no, yeah, that made great. 829 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: MVP caliber, best player in the league. How much Buyer's 830 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 1: remorses there in Minnesota on their decision at quarterback? 831 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 5: None, No, they look McCarthy had a high aendle spring. 832 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 9: Here's the thing. Okay, the guy suffers a twin p 833 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 9: teller tenant. Okay, he misses the season, never plays it 834 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:39,320 Speaker 9: down in the regular season, plays one good preseason against 835 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:40,840 Speaker 9: the Raiders last season. Okay, he got off to a 836 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:44,720 Speaker 9: slow start. He wasn't ready till their June camp. Okay, 837 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 9: there mandatory camp to start practicing. He needs work. You know, 838 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 9: Carson Wentz has done for the season with his shoulder surgery. 839 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 9: So no, they're not. I know fans are up in 840 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 9: arms about McCarthy the way he's played, but and I'm 841 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 9: not trying to protect the guy. I mean they also 842 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 9: have had offensive line problems of Dawer saw their left 843 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 9: tackles come back from the ACL injury. They got to 844 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 9: get McCarthy in there. He's got to get healthy, which 845 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 9: he is. He's recovered, he's on target to start this week. 846 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,720 Speaker 9: You know, Look, it's not it's not an ideal situation 847 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 9: playing out Detroit, and Detroit's gonna get a couple of defensive 848 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 9: players back, so it's gonna be a problem. But the 849 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 9: Vikings really need this game to stay in a wild 850 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 9: card hunt. 851 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, yes they do. This is the Doug Gottlieb Show 852 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 1: here on Fox Sports Radio. That's the voice of basically 853 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,399 Speaker 1: the voice of the Birds, right. I mean, speaking of which, 854 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: what is the status of Philadelphia? Such a weird mercurial season? 855 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: And I know they won, but I mean Cam Scattabow's 856 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: injury kind of cast a shadow over the whole over 857 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: the whole game. So it look, it was a good 858 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 1: bounce back game from when the Giants pummeled them on 859 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,760 Speaker 1: Thursday night two weeks before, But what what's the actual 860 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:49,879 Speaker 1: status in that locker room? 861 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 9: Honestly, Look, they they felt better about it because they 862 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 9: they were dominant both sides of the football. But talking 863 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 9: to teams that have played the Eagles. This is not 864 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,359 Speaker 9: a great roster. They're they're they're you know, they five 865 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,840 Speaker 9: defensive players to free agency. They've gotten younger, which is 866 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 9: a good thing, mostly younger by the Brandon Grahme's coming 867 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 9: out of retirement. But it's just not as good as 868 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 9: last year. But Doug, see, here's the thing. The entire 869 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 9: league is down. It's not when you look at thirty 870 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 9: two teams, there's not close to one dominant team. The 871 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 9: lines are good, the Chiefs are on their way back. Sure, 872 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,839 Speaker 9: there's not a dominant team that it's really wide open. 873 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 9: It wouldn't shock me if a wildcard team would make 874 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 9: a run. Like Seattle was my breakout team. They're five 875 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 9: and two. I picked them to be a wildcard team 876 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 9: with the way Sam Darnold's playing right now. And we'll 877 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:36,239 Speaker 9: see what happens Sunday night at Washington. But Washington's falling off. 878 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 9: It's it's a year that's completely wide open. To be 879 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 9: honest with you, Doug, for so. 880 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: A man, it is very wide open, very wide open, 881 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: like kind of cliche to say, but it couldn't be 882 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: any more accurate. What's what's happened to Houston? I mean, 883 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 1: I say that because here you have it's not just 884 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 1: a young quarterback. You've got a coach that's a former 885 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 1: Texan beloved. But then I saw him say that. You know, 886 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: the media in Houston super negative. Guys only say that 887 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 1: when they're feeling it exactly. 888 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,879 Speaker 5: They have a very light media. Here's the thing. 889 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 9: So, look, they've been bad, particularly on offense until last week. Boy, 890 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,320 Speaker 9: they started getting together against the Niners. Were beat up defensively, 891 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 9: down four edge rushers. But so here's what I'm told 892 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 9: with the Texans offense, there's been a structural problem. Not 893 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 9: on the run game, it's been with a pass game. 894 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 9: The new coordinator, Nick Kelly, you know, this is the 895 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 9: first year calling plays for him. They're keeping in the 896 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 9: West Coast system, but his passing concepts he's just not 897 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 9: there yet. 898 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 5: Didn't have the feel for it. Now. 899 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 9: The other guy that had the job before it, he 900 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 9: didn't connect well with c. J. Stroud. That's why he 901 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 9: was fired. So Bobby Slowick, by the way, who came 902 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 9: out of nowhere. He had never he's never even a 903 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 9: position coach with the Niners and they hired him and 904 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 9: that heck, you worked for PFF. But he was the 905 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 9: wonder kid after one year, got head coaching interviews and 906 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 9: he was fired after the following season. And the passive 907 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 9: game is not working out well. And by the way, 908 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 9: Nico Collins or to their star receivers out with a concussion. 909 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 9: You start working this week. But there's been a lot 910 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 9: of problems here. I'm surprised. I'll be honest with you. 911 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 9: I I you know, I have to make my picks 912 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 9: for various polls, and I picked the Texas to the 913 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 9: wind Division. 914 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 5: That does not look very good right now. In fact, 915 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 5: it won't happen. 916 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 10: Uh. 917 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: It's Inside the Birds is the podcast. You can check 918 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: him out. He's Adam Kaplan. He's our Fox Sports Radio 919 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 1: NFL insider. Adam, thanks much for joining us. I really 920 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: appreciate the inside. 921 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 5: Thank you. 922 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:30,760 Speaker 1: This says the Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio. 923 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: Yeah it, Jason, you're having a good day. Like all 924 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 1: of your things that you've always thought and hypothesized about, 925 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: ranted about, kind of coming. And that's sort of what 926 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,319 Speaker 1: the There's no great team is. There's a lot of 927 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 1: below average football being played. I still think it's about 928 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks getting hurt and about all these injuries and then 929 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:56,880 Speaker 1: once you get there's just not the depth. There's just 930 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 1: not depth, and it looks so different once you get 931 00:48:59,000 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 1: to backups. 932 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 3: But doesn't it also doesn't it also all go back 933 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 3: to one thing? I mean, so there's the there's the 934 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,960 Speaker 3: very kind of like accepted reason, which is these guys 935 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:12,840 Speaker 3: don't practice anymore. And I'm in that practice. In that training, 936 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 3: your body is calloused and you're not going to be 937 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,359 Speaker 3: as injured. And then when the backups go in, they're 938 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 3: better performed because they get more practice. I mean, doesn't 939 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 3: it all go back to the same thing, the collectively 940 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 3: bargained lack of practice? 941 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, yeah, yes it does, It really really does. 942 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: It's a it's a good point. I believe in the 943 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: callous effect. Okay, that's is that was that Gruden that 944 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 1: talked about the callouses. I'm trying to think what former 945 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 1: coach talked about building up kind of callouses. 946 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 3: I've heard a lot of former players and coaches say 947 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 3: it the last couple of years. 948 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:55,319 Speaker 1: And I think it to be true. Right, So I'm 949 00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 1: with you, But I also think the genies out of 950 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 1: that bottle, it's not going back in. That's the other 951 00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:04,320 Speaker 1: side to it. It's like we talk to people about NIL. 952 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: I was green Bay has two Optimist clubs, to know, 953 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 1: if you guys know that very optimistic town. So I 954 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 1: spoke to the green Bay Optimist Club today and one 955 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,839 Speaker 1: of the questions I had was, Hey, will it ever 956 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 1: go back to the old days before NIL? And I 957 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 1: just said no, you know, And it's the same thing 958 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,320 Speaker 1: to the will we ever go back to two A 959 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 1: days in the preseason and grinding and practice and guys 960 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 1: playing in preseason? And the answer is no. And so 961 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:37,280 Speaker 1: the question is how can you make the sport better? 962 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,880 Speaker 1: Understanding that the days of guys grinding and really preparing 963 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: their body for this season are gone because they've been 964 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: convinced by doctors of medical that they need more time 965 00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: and that and then again CTE, we need less repetition 966 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: of hitting. And the season is longer now with eighteen 967 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 1: eighteen weeks, that's right, Dan Byer eighteen weeks, only seventeen games, right, 968 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:05,360 Speaker 1: half of eighteen is nine, it's nine, not eight and 969 00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: a half. 970 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 2: Anyway, you don't need to tell me. May need to 971 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:11,840 Speaker 2: tell Jason, but you don't need to I know. 972 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 1: I was, Steve, I was giving you credit for yesterday's argument, 973 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 1: which is really really it was. It was just fun 974 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 1: to be a bystander in anyway. You're right, Jason, but 975 00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: they're not changing it. It's again it's the argument of 976 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, they should really play less NBA games. They're 977 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 1: not giving back any games. They should prove less, play 978 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 1: less Major League Baseball game, they're not getting back any games. 979 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,759 Speaker 1: I actually think you said this once and I'll I'm 980 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,400 Speaker 1: gonna echo it or it's gonna become mine.
