It's It's Dan past Ray, Welcome to the program. 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:46.840 It's our one on this Wednesday, Dan and the Dance 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.800 Dan Patrick Shows. Say good morning to our great radio 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:52.640 affiliates around the world numbering three hundred and sixty two 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.680 and our TV partners Direct TV Audience Channel two thirty 0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:58.680 nine and VR Live. I've got a pull question, play 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.480 of the day, stat of the Day, some trigger Meet 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:05.360 Friday songs coming up. We begin with the Houston Astros, 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.160 because whoever came up with that saying any publicity is 0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:12.680 good publicity probably wasn't the subject of an overly negative story. 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.679 Now You can argue that the Astros cheating scandal is 0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:20.040 good for baseball. We're talking about baseball. National shows are 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.960 having a lot more baseball guest on than they might otherwise. 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:25.880 But as the players start to trickle into training camp, 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:28.919 I get the feeling we're not going to like the questions, 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:32.160 or at least those players are certainly not the Astros. 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:34.040 Every team in the league's going to be asked about this. 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:36.960 Then it will become a news cycle. One player is 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.960 going to say something that brings up even more questions. 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:43.639 Will it come from an Astro player, a former Astro player. 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:47.520 They're still a lot of unanswered questions. And the Astros 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:49.560 did not handle this well at all from the beginning 0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:53.280 because they underestimated just how explosive this was going to be. 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.040 More information has started to leak out, we don't even 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:58.560 have the full story. In my opinion, still don't believe 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:03.120 that now baseball is hoping that these players will get 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.919 the benefit of public opinion, the court of public opinion 0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:09.520 will at least be fair to some of these players. 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.280 My problem is none of these players have really stepped 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.880 up and said anything. You had a manager, a j 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:19.360 Hinge who seems to be a really good guy and 0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:21.960 got got, you know, stung by this. You got a 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.480 general manager who got stung by this. Meanwhile the players 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:28.440 got away unscathed. I think that's where the media and 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.840 maybe you the court of public opinion still has a 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.320 problem with this. The players got away with this, and 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:37.560 I have an issue with that. At least get in 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:39.400 front of and be a man and stand in front 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:41.760 of a camera and say, look, we did it, not 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:44.600 proud about it, and I'm sorry that we lost a 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:49.320 manager and we lost a GM. Somebody needs to say something. 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:51.960 Get out in front of it. Now, the astros are 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:57.120 actually having strategy meetings. How do we handle this? You 0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:59.400 should have handled this and had those meetings a long 0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:01.520 time ago. All you had to do is go, we're 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.400 going to hold a press conference here one time only, 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.120 and we're going to talk about this, because after that 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:09.600 we have to move forward. We can admit we made 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:14.200 a mistake, penalties were levied and people lost jobs, but 0:04:14.560 --> 0:04:17.120 we learned from this. Hopefully other teams learned from this. 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.880 But I'd like to hear from guys who love to 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:23.280 talk all the time. Justin Verlander, Alex Bregman. They are 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:27.040 always in front of a camera. Jose L Twove, come 0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:30.680 on down. I'd love to hear from you face the 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:34.880 fire one more time. You got immunity here, so at 0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:38.000 least be fair to those who lost their jobs, to 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:41.560 your fan base that they can at least understand. And 0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:45.000 there's going to be an asterisk buy the Astros. There 0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:47.480 just is and there should be. And I have no 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:49.839 problem that Baseball wants to take away that world serious 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.839 Baseball doesn't want to do that. I get it, But 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.919 to totally exonerate these players, I have an issue with that. 0:04:56.960 --> 0:05:00.359 I do, and I do think that they needed to 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:03.040 win a World Series and it's a bad precedent. What 0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:06.520 about the next team. The next team goes, hey, we 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:10.200 were cheating, but hey and it's just the players involved. Well, 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:12.559 Baseball has already said, hey, we don't. We don't punish 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:16.479 the players. You're gonna punish the team again. That's where 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.400 the commissioner. I don't know if he's got new laws 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:22.400 put in playing put in place here, but I would 0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:26.680 the next team that does this, and then you can 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.479 do dot dot dot, because if might find you a 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:32.440 million dollars, two million dollars, three million dollars. I take 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:34.520 away a draft pick or two. If you said to 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:38.720 the Astros, you're gonna win the World Series, your manager 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:40.640 is gonna lose his job. GM's gonna lose his job. 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:43.480 We're gonna lose some first round draft picks, and there 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:45.560 might be an asterisk next to your name for the 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:49.159 rest of your life. How many of those Asterros would 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.480 have signed up for that, And you're not going to 0:05:51.560 --> 0:05:54.640 be charged, You're not going to be penalized other than 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:59.320 you're going to wear the scarlet letter. They might have 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.440 signed up for that, but you're going to have a 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.200 strategy meeting here. And you know, the thing is, the 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:09.479 Astros got greedy here because the Astros could have continued 0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:12.240 to do this and they were actually doing it correctly. 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:16.560 They were doing it legally. But here's the complaint, you 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:19.919 guys are too slow. We need that information in real 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:24.120 time during a game. That's where the problems surfaced here, 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:28.159 and that's where the Astros got caught because what was 0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:33.320 happening is they were decoding this and they were doing 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:37.400 it legally, but they were only analyzing this after the fact. 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:40.280 That's when you had people coming in going, hey, we 0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.919 need that information now. So they had an algorithm of 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:48.320 to decode signs, and the video that they got was 0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:52.840 legal and advanced scouting tool. The use of the algorithm 0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:55.920 would have remained legal if it had not been deployed 0:06:56.000 --> 0:07:01.800 during live, you know, live during games. So what happened 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:06.320 is Carlos Beltron and Alex Cora, they were the leaders here. 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:08.920 You had some players who said, we don't want to 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:11.320 be involved in this. They decided that the guy in 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:16.720 the video room was not working. He wasn't efficient enough, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:20.760 he was too slow. A person with direct knowledge of this, 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:25.040 according to the Athletic dot Com, they got better at cheating, 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:27.920 and then the team got better because they got better 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:34.920 at cheating. So the crime is nobody stopped it, and 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:37.520 the crime laws banging on the trash cans was so 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:41.160 over the top compared to what happened before that it 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:45.320 was so obvious there. But the astros are trying to 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:48.880 figure out, Okay, how do we minimize any more damage here? 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:52.440 Because the longer you've waited, the worse it got, the 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.880 more questions we have. I mean, we reached out to 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.239 everybody with the astro. Nobody's talking, they don't want to talk. 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:02.960 But every seat this doesn't blow over because you know 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.920 what's going to happen wherever they go. Everybody is going 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.160 to go how they do on the road. Hey, you 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:14.840 guys are in a slump, not cheating. Different media, different town, 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:17.640 different fan base, and they're going to hear it the 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:23.440 entire year, and they should because you guys cheated, Finding 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:27.920 simple cheated. Red Sox aren't going to get stung as badly. 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.920 But they have a manager already lost his job. What 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:35.880 do they do? They find no players, now they find 0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:38.840 the organization. You take away a couple of draft picks. Hey, 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:41.840 let's move on here. Hey, how about that new playoff 0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:45.880 format here? I mean that's I'm not I'm not accusing 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.559 the commissioner in Major League Baseball of releasing that right 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:52.080 before they started spring training, but it feels like it 0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:55.120 might have been a strategy there. Hey, when do we 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.280 want to release this? Get it out now, get it 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:00.160 out right before pitchers and catchers report. We got if 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:04.200 somebody asking other questions? And did you ever hear the garbage? 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:07.920 Can you know being banged there? How often did you 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.000 bang the drums slowly there? And now you've got some 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.839 players who are former astros who found religion. Now they 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:16.840 want to come forward they want to go into the 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:21.080 baseball confessional and say, now I'm sorry I should have 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:26.400 done something. M Okay, after this fact, good luck with that. 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.760 This program brought to you by True Car. True Car 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:32.520 shows you what other people paid for the car you want. 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:35.640 If you're buying a car, the process can be overwhelming. 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:37.960 Now there's a better way with Truecar. Go to Truecar 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:41.480 and build your car. Compare models by options from discovery 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:43.880 to pricing to reviews. Get everything you need with a 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:47.680 new True Car. McLevin got a pull question for me. 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:52.839 Are you satisfied with MLB's punishment in the cheating scandal? No, 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:56.080 it's every enough. No, no, no is anybody do you 0:09:56.120 --> 0:10:01.520 think I'm gonna guess people in Houston might be, and 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:06.320 the Astros organization and maybe ownership there. But look, what 0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:10.040 can you do? And now what prevents somebody else from 0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.920 doing If I'm a player, like, what's going to stop 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:16.040 me or us or a group of us from doing this. 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:22.360 I'm not going to get punished. My team might get punished, 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:25.600 but I'm trying to get an edge here. So no, 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:29.400 I'm not satisfied with this. And other than you take 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:31.920 away a couple of million dollars from a billionaire, and 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:34.000 you can't take a couple of draft picks away from 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.400 the Astros. I know that some people lost their jobs there. 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:42.240 That ain't impact in the players. Last I looked Verlanders 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:47.719 still getting good coin. I'll twove's getting paid Bregman. These 0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:51.000 guys lost their jobs, and aj Hinch admits, man, I 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:54.000 should have done more. Okay, at least he's got some remorse. 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.280 I should have done more. I tried to do more, 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.360 Brian McCann. Another one said, I tried to do it, 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.960 but we got, you know, steamrolled by Carlos beltrn An 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:07.400 Alex Score. Yeah. Do you think a big problem is 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:11.720 in American sports society? We've seen other I wouldn't say franchise, 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:14.080 but teams be stripped of a title for not cheating. 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.960 Like usc football was stripped of the title because Reggie 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:20.480 Bush took a loan that was illegal. They were not 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:22.720 accused of cheating on the field in any way. He 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.320 was eligible while he played, but they were stripped of 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.679 their title. And then you have the Astros who are 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:31.320 completely caught as cheaters. They've admitted that they cheated to 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:34.400 win a World Series and they're keeping their title that's 0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:36.440 I think what bothers people is that it has been 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:38.320 done in sports before that you've been stripped of a title, 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:40.880 even in record and name only. They still got the 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.760 parade and all that stuff. If this was a college team, 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:47.280 then they would lose their title. It would be death penalty. Yes, absolutely, 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:51.600 this would be like SMU in the eighties. They would 0:11:51.679 --> 0:11:54.600 levy the death penalty that you guys were cheating that much. 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.839 Let's say a football team was able to tap into 0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:02.800 the headset of the opposition. Okay, oh yeah, let's say that. 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.559 Let's say that it was two hundred miles up north. 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:13.440 Everybody always assumed that the Patriots always we have evidence here. Okay, 0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:20.319 we have evidence here. Just because you have speculations, I think, no, 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:23.200 I'm not, but that has happened in the NFL. Don't 0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:25.120 you think something like that could have happened at some point? 0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:28.640 It could have, but we have evidence here. Imagine it's 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:31.240 it's proven that all of a sudden, the head coach 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:33.480 or you got somebody up in the press box, they 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:38.600 have tapped into the quarterback, head coach, offensive coordinator, and 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:41.200 they feed it to the defensive coordinator, so they know 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:44.480 what's happening. It's proven. What would you do if a 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:49.160 team won the Super Bowl? Would the NFL take away 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:55.640 the Super Bowl? Let's say it's a college team. Let's 0:12:55.679 --> 0:13:00.280 say Clemson knew exactly what was going to happen. Where 0:13:00.679 --> 0:13:02.960 the Lex you knew exactly what Clemston was going to do? 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:07.360 Kind of felt that way, sorry, but they knew what 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:12.160 was going to happen. College football would take away a title. 0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.760 Baseball doesn't have the guts to do that. You can 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:19.640 punish Pete Rose, and you can put him in purgatory 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.400 for the rest of his life, and that's where he's 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:25.800 gonna stay. Shulas, Joe Jackson, that's where he's gonna stay. 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:30.840 But this was it. You know, I'm gonna guess there's 0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:33.480 more to all of these stories, and that includes Pete Rose. 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:36.560 That Baseball just there's enough where we all right, we 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:39.160 made our decision. The Astros, they're just enough. We made 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:42.800 our decision. I wonder if one day we get the 0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:46.920 true story of the Astros and how beneficial it was 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:51.280 that they were cheating. Yes, I don't think a pro 0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:54.720 team has ever vacated a title, though all the vacates 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:56.520 are on the college level. I believe I looked it 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:58.000 up a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:02.160 Is a college team? Yeah? They ken? Can they? You 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:05.400 don't think the commissioner can say I guess why? Why 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:07.160 couldn't he? I don't know why. It's a pro team 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:10.319 never done it in the past. I wonder if contractually 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.840 it's more difficult than college because colleges they don't seem 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:15.160 scared of it. Pros all the leagues seems scared to 0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:17.200 do that. Yeah, but how many teams are busted for 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:21.280 cheating in the World Series. I don't know if there's any. 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:23.080 I mean, he had a team that threw a World 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:27.320 Series the nineteen nineteen Blackstock scandal. But other than that, 0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:32.160 who else? I mean, even if Pete Rose was betting 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.680 in the World Series when he's playing in the World Series, 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:41.320 you would he probably did. But you know, Baseball, these 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.400 these pro leagues aren't going to remove a title from 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:46.600 somebody has ever been like a cork bat or a 0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:48.800 Phil Nekro throwing a tam paper out of the way, 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:52.360 Not really at bad level. I mean, that wasn't Phil Nekro, 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.760 that was Joe. I'm sorry, Joe nicro right, but even 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.080 that's an individual. It's not a team punishment like this 0:14:57.200 --> 0:14:59.960 at all. No, But if you want to make a stay, 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:04.040 it goes back to steroids. And I said this to 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.840 then commissioner Bud Stealing. If you want to make a 0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:10.920 statement and you're gonna get people's attention suspending somebody for 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:16.280 your third you know, failed test ten games, I would continue, 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:19.320 why would you stop cheating all of a sudden? You go, no, 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:22.560 you're down for half a year and you got guys 0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:25.320 making fifteen or twenty million dollars. You're going to get 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:31.400 some people's attention there. I mean, USC loses a title 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:36.080 because Reggie Bush had you know, a you know, improper 0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:40.760 loans from an agent who got spurned and then turned 0:15:40.800 --> 0:15:43.440 him in. Is that enough to take away a title? 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:48.960 The Pro sports would laugh at that. I go, come on, 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:51.120 that's not a big deal. Yeah boy. What if for 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.600 the twenty twenty season, all astros hit are step in 0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.880 the box down oh one. Let's see what you got 0:15:57.920 --> 0:15:59.960 deal with that? You're down oh one? To start that bad? 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:02.400 I'm guessing at mcclub and you can do the analytics. 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.360 If you're down O one, you're probably hitting two twenty 0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:07.280 five about that every pitch they make, the pitcher has 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:09.280 to say to the hitter, this is what's coming. Just 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:12.360 scream it. Yeah, just fastball. Yeah, but then you start 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:15.000 messing around its. Hey, here's the fastball. Throw curved, be 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:19.320 even better. No, then then then you get suspended. Yes, Tom, 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:21.800 I know they're not gonna take down the sign. They'll 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:23.560 put an after squat. It isn't gonna be awkward having 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.240 that twenty seventeen banner at Minute Maid Park as a 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:29.120 constant reminder. Everyone's looking at that. I don't know. Maybe 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:32.880 they have tunnel vision, maybe they have your mouths, and 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:36.760 maybe they just go, okay, hey, we we this is 0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:40.520 I got this actually from a former player, and he said, hey, 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:42.960 I know you rail on the Astros with this, but 0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:46.360 you still gotta You've still gotta hit the pitch. And 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:48.160 I go, oh my god. I said, you can't be 0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:51.360 saying this because you sound like the guy who says 0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:54.120 to me, hey, Bonds may have taken steroids, but he 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:58.560 still had to hit the ball. He's a professional baseball player, 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:02.200 one of the great base ball players before he used steroids. 0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:04.879 Now I puff him up, give me more power. So 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.119 when he hits the ball, it goes a lot farther. 0:17:07.440 --> 0:17:10.040 This is really simple. And I wasn't good in math, 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:13.920 but I can understand this. Hey, you still got to 0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:18.240 hit the ball, alrighty. Then yeah, like playing blackjack and 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:20.199 they say it's thought to have the money, but you 0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:22.800 know what the next card and the deck is, well, yeah, 0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:25.640 I'm gonna make a lot of money. All right. So 0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:29.200 NBA last night, are we gonna go with the astro's 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:31.440 pool question? Honestly, I think we should ask people, would 0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:33.600 you vacate the title? Just to see where the audience is. 0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:36.600 I mean, let's start as a member of the media. 0:17:36.960 --> 0:17:39.560 It feels like if I and Tom for due to you, 0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:41.959 who I love and respect. And he came on right 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:43.800 after this happened and I asked him. I said, do 0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:45.439 you think A. J. Hinch knew about it? And he 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:51.280 said no, and I doubled back with him because I 0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:54.560 knew he was wrong. You can't have a manager in 0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:59.239 the dugout while they're banging on a drum. And I 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.680 the reason why say this is it's like if I'm 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.200 at my house and I'm downstairs in the living room 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:07.479 and I can hear my daughter upstairs banging on a 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:11.320 drum or whatever. I'd be saying, Hey, keep it down. 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:14.840 You're gonna have a guy banging on the drum right 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.800 behind you, and a J. Hinch is gonna go, M 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:20.840 I don't, I don't hear anything. Wouldn't you just go hey, 0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:24.879 that's annoying. Stop it? Yes? Yeah, not just keep it down? 0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:27.760 But like, why are you kindly doing that? I would want? 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:34.959 Oh god, man, so you got the Astros scandal strategy. 0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:40.000 Here the Panther's owner is talking about Cam's future, and 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:42.960 we'll talk about Cam's future as well, because I think 0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:46.960 I know how this plays out. Tonight Lakers Nuggets Zion 0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:50.240 went off last night as he put up a career 0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:54.440 high thirty one. We'll talk about those numbers as well. 0:18:54.960 --> 0:18:58.760 And this may sound strange, and it may sound strange 0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:01.600 that I'm saying something sound strange on this show, but 0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:05.800 I had a dream about a member of the front 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:11.639 office of an NBA basketball team last night, and I 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:14.120 didn't realize I had the dream until this morning when 0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:16.040 we were bringing up a topic and I go, oh, 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:18.920 my god, I had a dream last night about this guy. 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:22.400 How many times have you heard that?
