Speaker 1: hour number one of the pod, Give me your school

13
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: of thought on the story everyone's talking about in baseball,

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulling show Hail Tani from a

15
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 1: no hitter after sixty eight pitches in five innings. What's

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: that all about? Also, what's the most puzzling thing about egos?

17
00:00:55,640 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: Left tackle Jordan Milatta's grumbling about the media's obsession the

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: tushy pushy. We'll talk about that. Also, where are you

Speaker 1: your way right now here. It is our number one.

23
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: So how does one stop greatness? I don't know in

24
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: all sports, but I know in baseball. If you want

25
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: to slow down greatness, have Dave Roberts and the Nerds

26
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: run your baseball team. Welcome in the beginning of another

27
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: night of the Ben Malor Shaw. We are in the

28
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: air everywhere the malar of mouthpiece has been activated as

29
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: we pay hush money unless we don't coast to coast,

30
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: border the order and beyond on the vast and unmeasured,

31
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: purbably powerful microphones of fs are am monating live from

Speaker 1: who goes by for some reason the moniker Sharknado.

35
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,119
Speaker 2: We don't know why, but he does. We don't know why.

36
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: This portion of the Ben Maler Show on Fox made

37
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: possible by our friends at Tire Rack. For over forty years,

Speaker 1: tire rack dot com the way tire buying should be.

43
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from baseball. Now. I

44
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: realize we don't normally talk baseball during the regular season.

45
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: It's not much of a talker.

46
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: I picked my spots on that, especially when there's football

47
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: going on. Another amazing night of baseball at Dodger Stadium,

48
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: the Dodgers and the Phillies. Phillies winning the National League East,

49
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: not that that means much anymore, but they did do that,

50
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: and trying to wrap up the home field advantage is

51
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: one of the top two teams. They and the Brewers

52
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: will likely get home field advantage. Not that that matters.

53
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: There's really no home field in baseball. So anyway, get

54
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: to the point, please, So show Hail Tani might know

55
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: this by now, maybe you haven't been paying attention. So

56
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: show hal Tani was pitching a no hitter. No granted

57
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: it was midway through the game. It was five innings

58
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: into the game, so it wasn't in the eighth or

59
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: the ninth inn he but he was pitching no hit

60
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: baseball for five innings, and then Dave Roberts did what

61
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts does. He cuts the balls off history. That's

62
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: what Dave Roberts does. He knewter's history, any chance at history.

63
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts chop chop, cut cut, there goes history, and

64
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: he pulled them over the game. Now Dodgers had a

65
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: four to nothing lead, and at that point I might

66
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: as well have been the Philly fanatic. I was go Phillies, Go,

67
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: Go Phillies go. I admit it.

68
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: I'm not ashamed to admit it.

69
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: I admit it. And then I got my wish. Philadelphia

70
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: conducted batting practice that years ago. I used to go

71
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: to batting practice. They hit the ball harder during the

72
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,799
Speaker 1: game than they do in batting practice. Okay, extended BP

73
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: for the fight in Phills against that wobbly Dodger bullpen,

74
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 1: and Philadelphia put up six runs in the sixth inning,

75
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: five consecutive.

76
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 2: It's ended with six runs.

77
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 1: Then the Tochers came back to tie the game, and

78
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: of course the Phillies teeing off more on that Dodger bullpen.

79
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: They ended up hitting another big home run the ninth.

80
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: Then he ended up with a nine to six victory

81
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 1: in the game. And we again, we don't only talk

82
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: about baseball other than the playoffs, and we picked our

83
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: spots at this time of the year. But this is

84
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: the exception of the rule. And then I saw some

85
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: of Dave Roberts commentary after the game, and Dave Roberts

86
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: said that it was predetermined that the decision was made

87
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: prior to the game, that Otani was only gonna go

88
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: five innings no matter what. Now, keep in mind, he

89
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: had only thrown sixty eight pitches. Sixty eight pitches, and

90
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: this schmndrick, Dave Roberts takes him out of the game.

91
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: Sixty eight pitches out of the game, no hitter. It

92
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, all right, So let us discuss. Give me

93
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: your school of thought on the Dodgers' philosophy. It's the

94
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: organizational philosophy led by Dave Roberts, who's in the dugout

95
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: for pulling sho Hail Tani from a no hitter after

96
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: just sixty eight pitches. So I've got jim Nance Milli Vanilli,

97
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: and tiny vodka bottle, and we will combine all of

98
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: these things together and we are going to make corn

99
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: dogs because the Dodgers have a lot of time beating

100
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: corn dogs because they're not gonna be in the playoffs

101
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: very long with these morons are anyway, all right, So

102
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: a let's just start with this. I've determined based on

103
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: years and years of watching this in this era of

104
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: the Dodgers, this is on brand. It is on brand.

105
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts and the Dodgers are the only team in

106
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: baseball that consistently, consistently does this. Like there are other

107
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: teams that do it occasionally, the Dodgers lead all of

108
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: baseball in this. Individual greatness is not allowed when you

109
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: play for the Dodgers, it is not allowed. Dave Roberts

110
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: has taken more pitchers out with no hitters than anyone

111
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: in the history of baseball. That's my stat I don't

112
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: even know if it is true. We're just gonna go

113
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: with it. And they always do it out of an

114
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: abundance of caution, which drives me bukers. Okay, drives me bokers.

115
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: Nobody knows when someone's gonna get hurt. Nobody knows what

116
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: the perfect amount of pitches is. People say a hundred pitches,

117
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: but that's only because it's a round number, and people

118
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: love round numbers.

119
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 2: And there have been pitchers from the.

120
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: Old school that way more than that and didn't have

121
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: any problems. And there are pitchers in the modern game

122
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: that throw a lot less than one hundred pitches. They're

123
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: hurt all the time. But yet gotta pull o'tani, Gotta

124
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: take o'tani out of the game, right and put the

125
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: parade of terribles, the horribles out of the bullpen there

126
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: and its organizational malpractice is what it is. And the

127
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: doughters have mastered now. As I said on the Socials,

128
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: if Dave Roberts managed Nolan Ryan, the greatest strikeout artist

129
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: in baseball history, if Dave Roberts managed Nolan Ryan, he

130
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: would have ended his career with no no hitters, zero,

131
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: no no hitters. Bumpkis all right. He'd be He'd be

132
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: sitting the dugout after the fifth inning and Dave Roberts

133
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: would say, hey, Nolan, I got to talk to you,

134
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: and Dave would go down and Nolan would say, yes, skip,

135
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: what do you need?

136
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 2: And Roberts would then.

137
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: Explain that that seventy two pitches which you threw, that

138
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: that's what the computer says. We got to take you

139
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: out because we don't like your chances facing the lineup

140
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: the third time through.

141
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute, in.

142
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: A previous life, I had seven no hitters. Doesn't matter,

143
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, doesn't matter. You'd never even have heard of

144
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: the Ryan Express, the greatest strikeout pitcher of all time,

145
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: if he got to play with Dave Roberts.

146
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable.

147
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: And then the other part about this, the Dodgers coddle

148
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: these guys. They absolutely call you baby. They're pitchers. They

149
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: hide behind pitch counts and the analytics, and they are

150
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 1: convinced that they are the smartest people in the room.

151
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: And you're a moron. I'm a dumb dumb. We're all

152
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: idiots and they know everything. And what's the result. It's

153
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,439
Speaker 1: a kunga line of Tommy John surgeries. You get it,

154
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: Tommy John, You get it, Tommy John. You get a

155
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: Tommy John. As Jim Nance would say, all right, they've

156
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: turned elbow surgery, Tommy John surgery into a franchise tradition

157
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: unlike any other. It's right next to the Dodger Dog

158
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: and the late great Vin Scully. That's the Dodgers, all right.

159
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 1: That's how they operate. A pyramid of shredded ligaments behind

160
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium, from their pictures, and despite all the evidence

161
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: indicating what they are doing is fundamentally broken. All right,

162
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: what they are doing doesn't work. They won't change. They

163
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: will not They're stubborn. They will not change, they will

164
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: not adapt, won't do it. It's kind of like bad parenting. Now,

165
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: you think about bad parenting. If you're a parent and

166
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 1: you expect very little from your children, you're going to

167
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: get very little from your children. If you expect greatness,

168
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: you may get greatness, but at least you'll get some

169
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: good stuff, even if it's not greatness. And Dave Roberts

170
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: so robotic, and he's the faces. I realize there's other

171
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: people making these decisions, and he's just getting a fat

172
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: check to hang out with the sports writers and bust

173
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: balls before the game. But Dave Roberts a robotics by

174
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: the book, and it's middle manager bull crap, which I

175
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: can't stand. There's no room for the human element in coaching,

176
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: Like sometimes you have to trust your gut. Occasionally you

177
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: have to trust your gut. It does not happen. And

178
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: this is a great example. They had Otani, who's on

179
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: the mound dealing and no, cannot do it, cannot have it,

180
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: cannot risk it, abundance of caution add cannot do it.

181
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: The iPad in the dugout says, five innings max, I

182
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: am merely following my orders. Yeah, okay, So what happened?

183
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: They go to the bullpen and give up nine runs?

184
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: Nine runs rather than have a picture push the limits.

185
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: You never push the limits of the human body and

186
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: test the boundaries, which I thought was kind of athletic competition,

187
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: testing the limits and things like that, But I guess not.

188
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: Things have changed, not for the better, but they Again.

189
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: This is the whole thing, and it drives me nuts.

190
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: To Dodgers. Organizational philosophy is to have guys the bare

191
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 1: minimum clock in.

192
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 2: Just do enough.

193
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: Make it look like you're busy when you're futzing around

194
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 1: your phone. Just make it look like you're actually doing

195
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: something right, and that's it, and just do enough. Never

196
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: ever strive, never ever strive for anything more than that.

197
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: Don't do it. That's the Dodgers. Don't expect greatness. Because

198
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: they don't expect greatness, and you get paid a lot

199
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: of money. There's no room for improv no room for

200
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: improv at all. Just the dogma of the nerd. The

201
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: dogma of the nerd. That's the Dodgers. It's a box

202
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: checking exercise. I have a couple people I still know

203
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: over there when I did stuff years ago with the Dodgers,

204
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 1: and I actually was sending messages to a few of them,

205
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 1: and I said, listen, you could literally take anyone out

206
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,599
Speaker 1: of the pavilion a Dodger stadium and put them in

207
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: the dugout as long as they can just follow the script.

208
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable.

209
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: All right, Now, turning the pace, we go to the NFL.

210
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: Why why not?

211
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 2: And we're gonna start in Philadelphia.

212
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: The eat Hey gee we e egles. They're left tackle

213
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: Jordan by Latta not happy. He's had enough of the

214
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: evil media. He's upset. You see this, He's upset with

215
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: the media narrative that his team won the Super Bowl

216
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: rematch against the Chiefs this past weekend because of Tushy.

217
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: That's right. During a Philly radio interview. I'm sure that

218
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 1: was riveting Jordan Mylatta rather than me, say let's go

219
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: to the audio tip. Here's the Eagles left tackle commenting

220
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: on his distaste for the media stories regarding the outcome

221
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: of that Eagle Chiefs game.

222
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 3: I understand the outrage. What I don't understand is them

223
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 3: using it as an excuse to why we won the game.

224
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 3: I think it's incredibly disrespectful to our defense and our

225
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 3: special teams who bowled out my brother's on defense, the

226
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 3: special teams who bought out that game, who had outbacks.

227
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 2: When we went moving the ball or we went doing anything.

228
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 3: That pisces me off because we give so much of

229
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 3: this game and to kind of base of a short

230
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 3: yardage play that is a bull play and say that

231
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 3: we won the game off that, but not not how

232
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 3: a defense played, not how our special teams have played,

233
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 3: putting us in those positions. You know, I think it's

234
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 3: I think it's bull crap. I just think it's rubbish.

235
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 3: That's absolute rubbish.

236
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 4: Man.

237
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,719
Speaker 3: It makes me makes my blood boil just singing about it.

238
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: All right, So, question, what is the most puzzling thing

239
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: about the Eagles left tackle?

240
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 4: There?

241
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: Jordan Marlatta grumbling, grumble, grumble, grumble about the media's obsession

242
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: with the Tuschwitz.

243
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: By the way, that's either.

244
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: A accent from from from Georgia or from Australia. One

245
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: of those two. Anyway, No, he's from Australia, so this

246
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 1: is a rather bizarre mountain to die on. Like, and

247
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 1: by the way, he's from Australia, does he really know

248
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: American football? I mean, let's be honest here, come on,

249
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a rugby play. It's a rugby play.

250
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: It's like Ozzie rules football. So here's I don't want

251
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: to understand why these guys don't embrace it. I've said this,

252
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: like their coach is like a schmuck. Everyone hates who's

253
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: not an Eagle fan, Nick Siriannis. So why not just

254
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: embrace the dark side? Right? Be Darth Vader, be Palpatine,

255
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: be the become the meme, let the hate flow through

256
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: you all that. Instead, you've got Jordan Mylotta out there,

257
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: who's on the radios, you heard, and he's pouting like

258
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: somebody left him out of the group chat, like he's

259
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: upset by that.

260
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 2: Many around the NFL are.

261
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: Starting to reevaluate the philadel Fi Eagles, right, and this

262
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: is what Jordan Mylotta doesn't like and the Eagles don't like.

263
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: And I get it.

264
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 2: I wouldn't like it either if I was the Eagles.

265
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: But people are revisiting the Eagles here in this success,

266
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: and they're like, well, wait a minute. You know this

267
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: is about as authentic as the Grammy that Milli Vanilli

268
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: won back in the day.

269
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 2: If you don't know who that is, look it up.

270
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: It's a they did lip syncing, very popular years ago,

271
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: and they did lip syncing. They never sing the song Curl.

272
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: You know it's true, you know it's true. Is it

273
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 1: wrong to say that the Eagles are the Milli Vanilli

274
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty five NFL?

275
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 2: Right now?

276
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: They're one trick. Their lip syncing is what they're doing,

277
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: and they're really lipsticking their way through the NFL with

278
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: that one play. So if I ask you what is

279
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: great about the Philadelphia Eagles, what is top of the line,

280
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: a number one pedigree?

281
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 5: What is it?

282
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: What are you gonna tell me? Well, they have a

283
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: good defense.

284
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: Okay, it's not the eighty five Chicago Bears defense. It's okay,

285
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: it's fine. Let's peel this thing back, all right, So

286
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: we peel it back. Jalen Hurts is he an elite quarterback? Well,

287
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you expect a quarterback to throw for

288
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: less than one hundred yards in some games, less than

289
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty yards.

290
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: Okay, that's elite for me. That's not a lead. I

291
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 2: know you're just.

292
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: Being a critic. Jalen Hurts not elite. Saquon Barkley is elite.

293
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: That's terrific, but he's a running back. That doesn't make

294
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: it tingle in modern football. It doesn't on defense and

295
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: special teams fights, But nobody's posting on social media about

296
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: the Eagles defense and special teams. The only thing, the

297
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: only thing that is head and shoulders above the rest

298
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: of the NFL is the tush push. That's it, end

299
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: of it. That's that's all. They're it, and that's it.

300
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: That's the entire act of the Philadelphia Eagles. That's it,

301
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: and that's why people talk about this and Jordan Mailata

302
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: doesn't like it, and the Eagles get all testy about

303
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: this because it's it's for them. It's like the Staples,

304
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: easy button running that play first and nine every time

305
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: it's not first and ten, because if it's if it's

306
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: fourth and one, they automatically get the first down. They

307
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: convert ninety six point six percent of the time, ninety

308
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: six point six percent of the time. That's how they operate.

309
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: That's their secret ingredient right there. And so instead of

310
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: just laughing it off and say, oh, you know whatever, no,

311
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: it makes you look soft the reaction the Eagles have

312
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: had to this, And if you're really, really good, you

313
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: don't care what people are saying, because you're so dominant,

314
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: you don't really care. However, the fact that factions of

315
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 1: the philadel Fi Eagles they're so bothered by this proves

316
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: one thing that we have nailed it. That Again, I

317
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: don't think you should be banned the toush push. However,

318
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: it's going to end up being banned now, Like at

319
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 1: this point, we do the show right now, and in

320
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: this moment, if you ask.

321
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 2: Me, will this thing be banned? I say yes.

322
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: But again, my advice here unsolicited advice of the Eagles,

323
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: rather than whine and complain about it and have a

324
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: conniption fit, is just embrace the tush push, embrace the hate,

325
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: because the second that play gets banished by the NFL,

326
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: the philadel Fi Eagles become a nine to eight type team.

327
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: They're an eight to nine just the middle of the

328
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: pack NFC team. They're nothing special with that play. They

329
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 1: are special without that play.

330
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 2: Eh, you know, don't really care about it. All right.

331
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: Now, last word, we go to Minnesota, the quarterback shake

332
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: up continues and the Vikings filling out their quarterback room

333
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: with Desmond Ridder as the backup. Now, I normally would

334
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: not would not partake in this because I don't really

335
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: care about Desmond Ridder, But the coverage on this got

336
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 1: my attention. So that's what I wanted to talk with

337
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,199
Speaker 1: you about. So the question is when where are you

338
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: at on the NFL network reporting glowingly that the Vikings

339
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 1: have added Desmond Ridder as a proven experienced starter. All right,

340
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: So this is the old case of if you go

341
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: and pick up a big heifer at the farm there,

342
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 1: big giant, fat pig, and you put lipstick on it,

343
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 1: it's still a pig. And so Desmond Ridder, we all agree,

344
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: we've decided he stinks. And he's got eighteen starts with

345
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: the Falcons and the Raiders and sixteen touchdowns, fourteen interceptions.

346
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: That's not experienced. That is evidence, is what it is.

347
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: It's evidence to show that he's not good. All a

348
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: spade a spade. We believe in that, and so stop

349
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 1: treating the people that consume your product like idiots. The

350
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: state sponsored NFL media. They propped the news service of

351
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: the NFL. People can google things. There's chat, GPT and

352
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 1: other AI platforms now these days, so you can look

353
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: up the numbers, you can dig around the numbers and

354
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 1: all that. And if you look, Desmond Ridder is a

355
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 1: dog with fleas. How would you like to meet Kevin O'Connell,

356
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell. It was all a quarterback whisperer. Kevin O'Connell.

357
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: The man's got Carson Wentz on one side of the

358
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,959
Speaker 1: quarterback room and Desmond Ridder on the other side. Uh,

359
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: this like raiding the mini bar. You're really really hungry.

360
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: You go to your hotel, you raid the mini bar

361
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 1: after your flight got canceled. You haven't eaten, the restaurants

362
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: are closed. You end up getting a little tiny bottle

363
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: of vodka and you have like five M and ms

364
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: that you pay thirty five dollars for and then you

365
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: immediately have therapy on speed dial. Is it's depressing? Carson

366
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 1: Wentz and Desmond Ridder the dynam make fire duo, as

367
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: in dumpster fire, not good fire, dumpster fire here.

368
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 2: And so that's the quarterback room.

369
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,719
Speaker 1: It smells It smells like a wet dog, is what

370
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 1: it smells like, My God, rolled in garbage. And there's

371
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 1: the NFL Network, those bastions of truth who are reported.

372
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, it's like that.

373
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: They love. They must love polishing turds over there, they

374
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: must love it. It's like Desmond Ritters, the Hope Diamond. No,

375
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: it's a turd, that's what it is. But he's an

376
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: experienced starter. What are you talking about. I'd like to

377
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: quote Nick Saban who famously said back at Alabama, when

378
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: was asked about experience and returning starters and all that,

379
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: he pointed out that just because you have experience does

380
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: not mean you're good. It does not mean that you're good.

381
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: And so it's gas lighting People's what it is. And

382
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: I think there they think we're all a bunch of rubes.

383
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:52,400
Speaker 2: And you can.

384
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 1: Maybe speak for yourself. I don't believe I'm a rube.

385
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 2: I don't.

386
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 1: And you do not need some kind of telescope to

387
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 1: realize that desmer Ritter stinks. You just don't.

388
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:03,239
Speaker 2: You don't need that.

389
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: And even Stevie Meetpauls who's blind, can can see. He

390
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 1: can see that it is The Ben Mahlor Show as

Speaker 1: rand of FSR Tech Queen and Coop at a Bronco Fan.

429
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 1: We began here with the Dodgers as Otani taking out

430
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: five no hit inittings, another masterpiece by Dave Roberts and

431
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 1: the Nerds. I'm mentioning Dave Roberts mostly because he's the

432
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: face of this, even though he's just a useful idiot.

433
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: That the front office is telling him what to do.

434
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: Ferg Dog says Ben. If you're tired of being fed

435
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: up with the Dodgers and Dave Roberts, it's time to

436
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: make the switch. Become a Halo Hawk. We don't pull

437
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: pitchers who have no hitters going under any scenario. Trust me,

438
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: last time the Angels had a picture throw a no hitter?

439
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: How long ago was that? Is that? Jared Weaver? Jared Weaver?

440
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 7: Wow, that's my guess. I'm pretty sure that was the

441
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 7: last one.

442
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems about right. At least a decade ago, probably,

443
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, easily, yeah.

444
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 2: At least a decade ago.

445
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: Not a Burner Wright since it has Ben, I know,

446
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: I know a guy that makes the new NFL hats

447
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: and he's ready to mass produce the Ben Maller cap.

448
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: Just let me know how many you need.

449
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 2: Well, there it is.

450
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: It's got the my logo and it's the size of

451
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: a penny, which is appropriate, very nice.

452
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 2: Right in the middle of that has a good looking thing.

453
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 7: I'm an idiot. I'm wrong. I was wrong.

454
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 2: When was it Cooper two weeks ago?

455
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 7: Read dett Meers did it in twenty twenty two?

456
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 2: Really, but nobody watched it, so did it happen? Nobody

457
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 2: saw it?

458
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 7: But yeah, Jared Weavers was in twenty twelve.

459
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: All right, Ryan writes in Ryan, who is a regular

460
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: listener to the show, lives in San Diego, but his

461
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: heart is in Socals. Oh see, He says, Ben, I

462
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,360
Speaker 1: agree with you one thousand percent on your Dodger modelogue

463
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: as as long as Sekwan Barkley doesn't go Eric Dickerson

464
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 1: on the Rams and the Rams should beat Philly this weekend.

465
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 1: The he says, the Vikings will regret not putting all

466
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: their chips in on Sam Darneld Well, no, I don't.

467
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 2: I don't agree with that last part.

468
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: Let's not. Let's not get crazy here. Mark from Queen's

469
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: Rights In he says, hey, big Ben and the Eagles

470
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: offensive lineman Jordan Mylotta. He could just blame it on

471
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: the rain, like lip syncing Millie Vanilli before the the

472
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 1: untimely demise of half of million Vanilla. Now interesting fun fact,

473
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:39,239
Speaker 1: Mark that I in my my early days in radio,

474
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: I was working at AM eleven fifty in La which

475
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: was kiss Am down the Hall was the iconic kiss

476
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: f film the top forty station, one of the great

477
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: radio stations of all time, right, and they hired as

478
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: a gag half of Milli Vanilli. Once the scandal came out,

479
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: they hired the obviously the living half of Million Vanilli.

480
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 1: So he was doing a one hour midday show at

481
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 1: Kiss FM, and I was doing the midday show down

482
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: the hall. So I ran into this guy and it

483
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: was I think they the undoing of that band. Weren't

484
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: they doing a gig somewhere like in Rhode Island or something?

485
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: If I remember the story, and I vaguely remember a

486
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: long time ago, but this band was very popular and

487
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 1: was exposed. They never sang the songs. They were all

488
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: lip syncing, and I think they were doing a gig

489
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: in like Rhode Island, and the soundtrack skipped while they

490
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: were lip syncing and came a bit of a problem

491
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 1: for them. And that was the beginning of the end.

492
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: If I remember barbecuing Lane out of retirement, checks and

493
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: says Dave Roberts still took the team out for ice

494
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: cream after the game, right, Ben, Yeah, they had ice cream. Well,

495
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: actually what they did is because the players can't go

496
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: out as a team because they have things to do,

497
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: so they brought a mister softy truck up and they

498
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: put that right near the clubhouse of the players who

499
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: get some nice mister Softy on their way out. Scott

500
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: god Wrights, and he says, it's ironic that Dave roberts

501
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: nickname is doc since doctors are smart. He's all right,

502
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 1: very very funny, as I would expect from Scott as

503
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: a comedian. Rob says, the real question is how will

504
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: the biggest Dodger apologists spin this to bail out Dave Roberts. Well,

505
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 1: I know Dave Roberts. I really liked him in that spot.

506
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: I really liked him. Let's go to the phones. Eric

507
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: is in SoCal and he's in the leadoff chair. Hello, Eric,

508
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: I see a lot of Ambia noise. Hello, I hear

509
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: a lot of Ambia noise.

510
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 2: Hello Eric.

511
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:38,199
Speaker 8: Let me try or something, but so give game. I

512
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 8: started thinking, as Otani, uh, the flashbacks from playing with

513
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 8: the Angels, because kind of came out come is all

514
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 8: their games because he's going to lead with his pitching

515
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 8: hits a bullpen in and then I'll just evaporate and

516
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 8: they lose the game.

517
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: Well, of course, the difference is that would be impossible

518
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: because he's probably blinded by the glare of that World

519
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: Series trophy they won thanks to the yank He's incompetence.

520
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: In Game five of the World Series where they gave

521
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,479
Speaker 1: the game to the Dodgers because they couldn't play baseball,

522
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: they come by defense.

523
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 5: What is that?

524
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 1: What is that?

525
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,360
Speaker 2: What is going on?

526
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 8: What was that noise of these new trucks?

527
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 1: Oh man, dude, very careful? Wow that would did you

528
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: cross over the lane or something? What happened?

529
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 8: I slightly drifted on the on the bog line over here,

530
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 8: and okay, it's a stimulation strip.

531
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: Oh man, Wait a minute, I watched hold secon Now.

532
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: I watched that episode of The Simpsons years ago. I

533
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: thought those trucks drive themselves. I didn't realize you actually

534
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: have to drive them.

535
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 8: I got one of those yet.

536
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: No, Now, do you have a sleeper? Do you have

537
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: like a bed in the back and the whole setup

538
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: or is this just a temporaries that?

539
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you don't have that.

540
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 8: Just a two front seats and that's nothing in the back.

541
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 8: So alright, going to San Diego?

542
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 2: So gotcha?

543
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: All right, Well say hello to everyone at Camp Pendleton

544
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: on your way down to San Diego.

545
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 2: All right, all right, all right, there you go. Thank

546
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 2: you there Eric checking in.

547
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: So congratulations to the Dodgers. It was historical suck the

548
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Dodgers, managed by Dave Roberts and an army

549
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: of nerds. The Dodgers became the first team since at

550
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: least nineteen oh six. You do the math, so it's

551
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five right now, So that's almost one hundred

552
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: and twenty years. My computer like brain tells me the

553
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: first team since nineteen oh six. That's right, mal math.

554
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: To get five or more no hit innings from a

555
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: starting pitcher and have the bullpen allow nine or more

556
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: runs in the game. Wow, that had not happen. Think

557
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: about the invention since nineteen oh six. Think about the

558
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: things that are in the world now that we're not

559
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: there in nineteen oh six and here we are. So wow,

560
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: that is wild Man alive. Just absolutely perfect, just absolutely

561
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: the things that we did not have in nineteen oh

562
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: six on the plane that we do have now. So

563
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 1: there you go, outstanding, that's that's the Dodgers. But everything's fine,

564
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: nothing to worry about here. And where those Dodger apologies

565
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: that normally call up are they in hiding? Even they

566
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: can't defend Dave Roberts. Where's that dope? And Bakersfield? Where's

567
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 1: that loser? He's not Andrew. Where's Andrew and Bakersfield? Oh,

568
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: everything's fun, everything's oh, guy shoving up your tucks with

569
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: the tush push All right, I guess exactly now. We've

570
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: had a lot of NFL injuries over the last week,

571
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: a few days here. It's embarrassing, guys. Two weeks into

572
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: the year, we've had what five six quarterbacks already knocked

573
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: out or could be knocked out. And in baseball the playoffs,

574
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: there's only a couple weeks ago in the baseball season,

575
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: then the playoffs begin and there are some big time

576
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: injuries in the playoffs. My favorite baseball injury, though, the

577
00:30:52,960 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: Cheating Astros. Your Don Alvarez, the mammoth sized four Dodger

578
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: minor leaguer jr. Don Alvarez of the Cheating Astros.

579
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 2: Is going to be out.

580
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 1: He suffered an injury while crossing home plate in the

581
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: bottom of the first He was injured by hitting home plate.

582
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: And they say baseball players aren't tough. What's wrong with you?

583
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: So anyway?

584
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: You Don Alvarez expected to miss an extended period of

585
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: time because of a They say it's a sprained ankle.

586
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 1: It sounds worse than that, but according to the cheating

587
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: Astros manager Joe Espata, it's going to keep him out

588
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: for a while. It's he says, let's not get into

589
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: day's weeks or any of that. Well, no, that's important,

590
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: you dummy. That's important the playoffs starting, like two weeks

591
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: the postseason begins and the Astro's hanging around. You look

592
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 1: at the baseball standings here and it is getting very

593
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: very interesting down the home stretch. So because this is

594
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: manipulated by Baseball, they kept adding wildcard teams and so

595
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: this stuff ends up getting manipulated.

596
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 2: But the wild card.

597
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: Standings right now, if you look at it, the Astros

598
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: have a half game lead over the Red Sox for

599
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 1: the second wild card. But then you look at the

600
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: American League West standings and you're like, well, wait a minute, here,

601
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that, and then the Mariners are a

602
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: half game up one game in the lost column. So

603
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: it's neck and neck between the Mariners, who are on

604
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: a burner ten games streak, and then the Astros, both

605
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: likely to make the playoffs. The Texas Rangers were looking

606
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: pretty good. And now they've lost three games in a row,

607
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: much to the dismay, much to the dismay of our

608
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 1: friend in Arlington, Ed in Arlington, let's call the phones

609
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: now to defend Dave robertson competence, we go to Andrew

610
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: in Bakersfield. Defend your guy. Come on, Andrew, defend your guy.

611
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: Defend him, Andro, defend him.

612
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 5: Okay, so I missed most of the game.

613
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: Very convenient, very convenient.

614
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 5: But my only question is if you know that that

615
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 5: show Hay is on a special schedule because of.

616
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 2: What he does.

617
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 1: He take the short bus to the stadium.

618
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 5: Okay, So if Dave Roberts would have left him in

619
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 5: and show Hey threw out his arm, wouldn't you just

620
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 5: be saying the exact opposite.

621
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: No, I would be saying, that's fine. He threw sixty

622
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: eight pitches. What Why don't you just announce it? My

623
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: name is Andrew and Bakersfield. I'm a woos. Why don't

624
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: you just announce that?

625
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 2: Andrew?

626
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: Just announce it right now, announce it right now, just

627
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: say it. Say it.

628
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 5: How many innings did he pitch last time?

629
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: He said sixty. I don't care about inning sixty eight

630
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: pitches you're again, how many you're a sixty eight pitches

631
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: he threw last time? I don't care how many pitches.

632
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: Sixty eight pitches is nothing. And if he's that soft,

633
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: he shouldn't be playing Major League Baseball. How about that?

634
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: Get him out of there, Get him out there.

635
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 2: If he's you're worried.

636
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,479
Speaker 1: About his delicate arm, he's already had Tommy John twice.

637
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: Who cares let him have it a third time. It's done.

638
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: We do way.

639
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 2: All right?

640
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean come on, I mean, I know we

641
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: have like terrible callers, but that guy sucks. Well.

642
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, we'll try to get some good calls.

643
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox is the number

644
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: eight seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine.

645
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 1: And we'll have the player of the day coming up

646
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: a little bit. Here is the who am I? Game?

647
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: This is where I pretend to be somebody else. Thus

648
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 1: we call it the who who Am I?

649
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:38,879
Speaker 2: Game? You see how that works there?

650
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: So in defeat, show hey O Tony, because you know

651
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 1: I gotta protect his little arm there. Shoeyotani became the

652
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: fifth player to pitch five plus hitless innings and hit

653
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: a home run in the same game. Of course, his

654
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: team lost that game. I was the last pitcher to

655
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: do that. Again, who last pitcher prior to show? I

656
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: was the last one to pitch five or more innings

657
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: and hit a home run in the same game? Who

658
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:07,320
Speaker 1: am I?

659
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 2: That is the question.

660
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 1: The answer. We'll get to it and we will do it.

661

00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: record would be broken that quickly. The greatest Seattle Mariner

680
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: of all time, Ken Griffy Junior. He is no longer

681
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: the single season home run king for the Seattle Mariners.

682
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 1: As cal Raley stepped in in Kansas City. The ball

683
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,240
Speaker 1: flying out of the yard, and that leads us into

684
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:38,439

687
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:51,560
Speaker 1: run Calroy. He has tied Ken Griffy Junior for.

688
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 9: The most in Seattle Mariners history, number fifty six for

689
00:36:56,520 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 9: Cal Rowley. Kind amazing, histol incredible season, and he is

690
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 9: tied one of the greatest of all time in Ken

691
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 9: Griffy Jr.

692
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 2: So cal Raley getting it done there.

693
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 1: He also broke the record for a switch hitter set

694
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: by the Yankees legend Mickey Mantle in nineteen sixty one.

695
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 2: So cal ROI what happened?

696
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: The Big Dumper was going to go into a slump.

697
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: He was in the home run derby. Amazing how that

Speaker 8: One?

713
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 10: Straight up Roberts, this is not a team for him.

714
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 10: You can just see it his face. He's not even

715
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 10: a good Polker player, you can say. In this panic

716
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,879
Speaker 10: mode and the Dodgers going to extremes, we know we're

717
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 10: gonna lose. He doesn't know how to bring in a

718
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 10: runner from seconds. The Dodgers only live up one thing.

719
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 10: We got to hit a home run. They don't believe

720
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 10: theace hits like. We can sit home and we know

721
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 10: what we know what Dave roberts next move is. He's not.

722
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: Well he I would argue he is because he's doing

723
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 1: what they want him to do. That's the problem. It's

724
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: a it's an it's an organizational philosophy.

725
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:34,760
Speaker 2: Careful.

726
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,719

727
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: didn't sound good, but it's an organizational philosophy.

728
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 2: You got to pay off the who am I?

729

Speaker 4: Game?

730
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,640

731
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: Shoey Otani became the fifth player to pitch five or

732
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: more hit listenings and hit a home run in the

733
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,719
Speaker 1: same game. I was the last one to do it
