<v Speaker 2>get to those phone calls coming up tonight later on

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:44.360
<v Speaker 2>today and football coming up tonight. Basketball tonight, we got

0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 2>a full slate of NBA openers. Watched a lot of

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:51.560
<v Speaker 2>basketball last night, not necessarily good basketball. I was watching

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of the Nets game, and I even

0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:58.000
<v Speaker 2>watched the pregame for the Nets because I wanted to

0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:01.720
<v Speaker 2>see what they did with Ben Simmons. And there was

0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:04.600
<v Speaker 2>an interview, not necessarily a sit down interview, but this

0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:07.320
<v Speaker 2>was probably a shoot around earlier in the day, and

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.160
<v Speaker 2>he just talked about, you know, he's blessed to be

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 2>able to play. It's a blessing to be able to

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:18.160
<v Speaker 2>put on an NBA uniform. You still watch and I've

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:21.399
<v Speaker 2>said two things about him that I think are absolutely true.

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.119
<v Speaker 2>When I first saw him play at LSU, I said,

0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 2>I think he's a right handed shooter, but he's shooting

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:30.679
<v Speaker 2>left handed. And then the other part is I think

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 2>he's just a really good basketball player. But I don't

0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:37.240
<v Speaker 2>know if he loves playing basketball. I think you're six ' nine,

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:41.319
<v Speaker 2>got a handle here, Well, you should play basketball. I

0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:44.080
<v Speaker 2>don't know if he cares about playing basketball. I think

0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:47.240
<v Speaker 2>he cares about the lifestyle that brings to him. But

0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 2>I watch him play and you could actually see him

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:54.520
<v Speaker 2>thinking in real time when he's going up for a shot,

0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 2>and then he doesn't want to get found because he

0:01:57.320 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 2>doesn't want to.

0:01:57.880 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 3>Be embarrassed at the free throw line.

0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 2>He'll make a couple of really nice passes, or he'll

0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.360
<v Speaker 2>have a couple of nice plays, and then you'll see

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 2>him kind of revert back.

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 3>To I don't want to shoot, I don't want to

0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:14.400
<v Speaker 3>get found. I don't want to go to the line.

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:17.120
<v Speaker 2>I do like making thirty million dollars a year, though,

0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 2>And you watch that NETS franchise that is nondescript, and

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.880
<v Speaker 2>even with the Hawks with Trey Young. It's kind of nondescript,

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.359
<v Speaker 2>and there's a few of those teams where you okay,

0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:37.680
<v Speaker 2>all right, but then you know, you got Minnesota came

0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:40.080
<v Speaker 2>out of nowhere, and you're like, okay, they're interesting now.

0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.239
<v Speaker 2>Like you're gonna get Houston, I think, is a team

0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:43.799
<v Speaker 2>that can come out of nowhere and you go, well,

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of fun there. There's a couple of teams.

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.400
<v Speaker 2>It happens every year. It happens every year in sports

0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:53.839
<v Speaker 2>where somebody all of a sudden, it's their year, it's

0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 2>their time they make that big jump.

0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 3>There.

0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.200
<v Speaker 2>We're still waiting for the Pelicans to make that jump,

0:02:58.280 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 2>like is it going to happen?

0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 3>Is Zion going to be a thing? Is he going

0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 3>to be bigger?

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:08.519
<v Speaker 2>John Morant's back watching John Morant and they're like, okay,

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:13.040
<v Speaker 2>I watched Golden State. They blew out Portland. Golden State's

0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 2>going to be a really good team. I still think

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.760
<v Speaker 2>that they're going to make a trade at some point.

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 2>But I don't know if Golden State is more interesting

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 2>without Klay Thompson or Dallas is more interesting with Klay Thompson.

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:31.120
<v Speaker 2>I would say Dallas with Clay and they have this stat.

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.520
<v Speaker 2>There's so many stats out there. I didn't even know

0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:37.920
<v Speaker 2>they kept these stats. Corner threes. Teams that took corner

0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>threes and what were their percentages?

0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Last year?

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:46.160
<v Speaker 2>Dallas had a really really low corner three percentage. Well,

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>who's really good from the corner shooting threes? Klay Thompson?

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:56.600
<v Speaker 2>You have Luca, you got Kyrie. This is kind of that. Okay,

0:03:56.760 --> 0:04:00.280
<v Speaker 2>let's go. Let's and I know they made the NBA Finals.

0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:03.640
<v Speaker 2>I realized that Luca is one. I want to see

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Luca be the MVP, not just have incredible stats, to

0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:11.840
<v Speaker 2>truly be the MVP. I still think it's Jason Tatum's

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to lose because they're defending champs. They're the best team

0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 2>in basketball, and he's the best player on the best

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 2>team in basketball. And I would think if you start

0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:25.359
<v Speaker 2>there and we start to see the evolution of Jason Tatum,

0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.920
<v Speaker 2>he's still young, relatively young. He should be the mvpick.

0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:33.600
<v Speaker 2>But Luca, I think is the leader right now. Yes, Mark, I.

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.200
<v Speaker 4>Think for Jason Tatum because the Celtics are so stacked.

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 4>I think the Celtics have to win sixty eight, sixty nine,

0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:43.800
<v Speaker 4>seventy games in order for him to win MVP, because

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:47.120
<v Speaker 4>everyone came back and they won sixty four games, and

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.039
<v Speaker 4>so I think people were saying, well, of course they're

0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 4>a really good team.

0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but we didn't do that to Larry Bird. We

0:04:54.720 --> 0:04:58.360
<v Speaker 2>didn't go, hey, you got Michale and Perish. Everybody's back,

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:01.880
<v Speaker 2>So why are we doing that to Jason Tatum.

0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:05.880
<v Speaker 4>We've been disrespecting Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown all summer long.

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:10.360
<v Speaker 4>I didn't know all of us, Steve Kerr did. We're

0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:12.919
<v Speaker 4>all complicit and I didn't do it. Jason Tatum the

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:15.279
<v Speaker 4>over underwing DraftKings. I just saw it. It's forty eight

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:18.960
<v Speaker 4>and a half for Jason Tatum against the Warriors. Oh no,

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 4>he's going to go all against.

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:22.039
<v Speaker 5>The war under.

0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 3>The Celtics and Golden State plays.

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:27.720
<v Speaker 4>I don't know Christmas Day whenever he finds them, I would.

0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:29.680
<v Speaker 2>Be curious what the over under it wall be. It'll

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:31.159
<v Speaker 2>probably be twenty eight and a.

0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 4>Half in the first half.

0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 3>Yes, you're right, all right.

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:37.279
<v Speaker 2>All right, fair enough, if that's what you think. Celtics

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:41.920
<v Speaker 2>are playing the Wizards tonight, let's go. Can you watch

0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 2>half of a team, like half the game like I

0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:48.159
<v Speaker 2>watched just the Celtics tonight and not the Wizards. We

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:50.240
<v Speaker 2>need to come up with a TV that says, let me,

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:53.040
<v Speaker 2>let me get rid of the Wizards and just watch

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:59.680
<v Speaker 2>the Celtics. Spurs are getting eight against Luca and Company. Okay,

0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 2>see Clay in Company. As Todd brought up starting the show,

0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:06.880
<v Speaker 2>you know it's went By against Klay Thompson.

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:08.600
<v Speaker 3>I go, maybe not.

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.320
<v Speaker 2>That's the way to sell Oklahoma City against the Nuggets

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:13.120
<v Speaker 2>and Timberwolves versus the Kings.

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:15.920
<v Speaker 3>See, not to go back to Ben Simmons.

0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:19.159
<v Speaker 6>But I was kind of part of me was really

0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:24.200
<v Speaker 6>looking forward to and like hopeful that part of the

0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:27.320
<v Speaker 6>storyline this year for the NBA season would be the

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 6>Ben Simmons revenge tour. Like that would be so sick

0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 6>if all of a sudden he he went away for

0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:36.520
<v Speaker 6>a while and he came back as just like a

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.359
<v Speaker 6>legit dude proving himself.

0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:42.000
<v Speaker 3>God, that would have been so much fun. Yeah, but

0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.400
<v Speaker 3>he still can't shoot. You don't go away.

0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:46.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but I watched all those off season videos of

0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.720
<v Speaker 6>him working out in New York, and he found a shot.

0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:55.320
<v Speaker 2>See I could I could videotape myself with an off

0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:58.200
<v Speaker 2>season workout and you go all right, yeah, and I

0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:00.760
<v Speaker 2>could see a spot for him. I know he's a

0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:02.200
<v Speaker 2>John Paxson kind of guy.

0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 6>I like a redemption story better than a yeah.

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.280
<v Speaker 3>I guess he really does think story.

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:11.120
<v Speaker 2>He can't shoot, and he doesn't have confidence, So I

0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:13.280
<v Speaker 2>don't know what came first. Hey, I don't have confidence.

0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:15.880
<v Speaker 2>I can't shoot, or I can't shoot. I don't have confidence.

0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Here turns out he can't really pass either. At least

0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 2>Lonzo Ball worked on his shot, came back from a

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:25.280
<v Speaker 2>severe knee injury, and at least he got back. He

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 2>worked to get back. I just don't think Ben Simmons cares. Yeah, Pauline,

0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:32.360
<v Speaker 2>you're right.

0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:35.360
<v Speaker 7>It's not that he maybe can't shoot. He's just reluctant

0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 7>or paralyzed.

0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 3>No, No, he can't shoot.

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.560
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, he You know, he has five three pointers in

0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:41.640
<v Speaker 7>seven years.

0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 3>So he's gone five more than I do.

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:44.960
<v Speaker 7>Right, he hasn't He hasn't attempted one.

0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:46.960
<v Speaker 2>I would, I would, I would sign up for a

0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:48.640
<v Speaker 2>shooting contest against Ben Simmons.

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:51.200
<v Speaker 7>He hasn't attempted one in three seasons. It's not even

0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:53.760
<v Speaker 7>part of your they're centers who take them. If you

0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 7>watch him last night, he had a pass first minute

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:57.720
<v Speaker 7>of the game and all that pass then a real

0:07:57.800 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 7>nice layup. Then the rest of the game. He just

0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 7>like this, mantled himself.

0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we talked a little bit about the Clippers home

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:10.360
<v Speaker 2>court advantage. Didn't necessarily work last night, but went into

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 2>overtime and Kevin Durant talked about the Intuit dome.

0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 5>A the ms that liked to play in this building. Incredible.

0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:22.000
<v Speaker 5>I loved it at last I absolutely loved the water.

0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:25.280
<v Speaker 8>They guys, Yeah, it's insane, I know in the playoffs,

0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:30.120
<v Speaker 8>and you know, once people get more more comfortable with

0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:33.440
<v Speaker 8>the arena, it's gonna be insane here. So I always

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 8>love when new venues go up in our league. Is

0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.720
<v Speaker 8>always cool. Always sets the standard for what they come

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:39.480
<v Speaker 8>down the line.

0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.200
<v Speaker 5>You know. So Steve is doing great job.

0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 2>As franchise all right, All right, kind of laying it

0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.439
<v Speaker 2>on a little thick there in case you're forty one

0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 2>years of age and you leave the Suns and then

<v Speaker 2>when we kind of said to the San Francisco Giants

0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:58.560
<v Speaker 2>in spring training, hey, could I just introduce Barry Bonds

0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:00.200
<v Speaker 2>when he comes to the plate, And they're like, I

0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:03.960
<v Speaker 2>was doing the radio show at the same time, and

0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:07.239
<v Speaker 2>then they gave me a microphone. I added the microphone

0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:09.760
<v Speaker 2>for the radio show, so I was doing it was

0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:13.280
<v Speaker 2>a simulcast of sorts, and that's when I said, now,

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:19.840
<v Speaker 2>batting number twenty five, the left fielder, Barry Bonds. I

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:21.520
<v Speaker 2>don't know if that's the way you're supposed to sound

0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 2>when you do that, Boh Buns. And then he homered

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 2>and I said, now batting number twenty five, a man

0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:32.000
<v Speaker 2>who homered for me, and it is lasted bad. And

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:36.800
<v Speaker 2>then everybody turns around. Bonds looks up, like, what's going on?

0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:42.320
<v Speaker 2>Barry Bonds? And then we asked for him and he

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 2>said no, Bob Paully, it was a quick note, Yeah,

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Polly Goes, I said, go ask Bonds to come on

0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.120
<v Speaker 2>the show. I mean, I just said, I predicted you

0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:53.920
<v Speaker 2>hit a home run. Paully Goes down. The Giants dugout

0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:57.240
<v Speaker 2>and so we go to commercial breaking, I said, and

0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:58.640

<v Speaker 11>Yes, thank you, Yes, as soon as you as soon

0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:47.280
<v Speaker 11>as you personally get off the disabled list.

0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 5>I understand you had shoulder surgery.

0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:52.640
<v Speaker 3>Yep. Yeah. When's the last time you had shoulder surgery?

0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 12>Uh?

0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:58.640
<v Speaker 11>Well, I I tore my rotator cuffed my last year

0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.320
<v Speaker 11>in San Francisco, and I just let it scar over.

0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:06.880
<v Speaker 11>I never went and had surgery, and that's the way

0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 11>my career ended. And so but I have had knee

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:15.960
<v Speaker 11>replacement surgery last year in November, a lot of wear

0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:19.360
<v Speaker 11>and tear on my landing leg, and I liked it

0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:22.280
<v Speaker 11>so much that surgery part of it that I'm going

0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:26.760
<v Speaker 11>back next week and having them clean up scar tissue

0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 11>I had because just because I liked the meds that

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:30.639
<v Speaker 11>they give me.

0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:35.880
<v Speaker 2>I had the knee done a couple of years ago,

0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:37.720
<v Speaker 2>and it's one of those where you go, why didn't

0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:41.240
<v Speaker 2>I do this sooner? Because they they got hips and

0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:44.720
<v Speaker 2>knees down shoulders, they don't have down to an exact science.

0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:45.639
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:49.240
<v Speaker 11>Well, you know, I've been retired for about fourteen years, Dan,

0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:54.240
<v Speaker 11>and when you're playing, you got youth, and you got

0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:59.879
<v Speaker 11>trainers and doctors and things like that that you know,

0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:03.240
<v Speaker 11>the aches and pains don't seem to show up as much.

0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:05.680
<v Speaker 11>But when you get away from the game, you're removed

0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 11>from it fourteen years, the aches and pains and the

0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:11.840
<v Speaker 11>injuries seem to circle back and they let you know

0:18:12.720 --> 0:18:16.080
<v Speaker 11>that they're still here. So I hope you get up

0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:20.240
<v Speaker 11>the disabled US soon because someone will be come calling

0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:22.320
<v Speaker 11>for you for your free agent year this year.

0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:22.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.320
<v Speaker 2>If I was only a left handed pitcher, you know,

0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:27.920
<v Speaker 2>I got a couple of random questions here, Why is

0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:30.560
<v Speaker 2>it still a big deal when a left handed batter

0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:33.800
<v Speaker 2>has to face a left handed pitcher, Like, oh my god,

0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:34.600
<v Speaker 2>what an advantage?

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:37.000
<v Speaker 11>Like why don't they talk about right handed pictures face

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:37.920
<v Speaker 11>your right handed hitter?

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:40.679
<v Speaker 5>I don't know. That's a good question.

0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:44.000
<v Speaker 11>I'm going to have my staff work on that question

0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:45.879
<v Speaker 11>and hopefully we can.

0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:47.360
<v Speaker 5>Get the answer before we're done here.

0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:50.560
<v Speaker 2>But haven't we evolved where it's not a novelty Where

0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:53.439
<v Speaker 2>you go, we don't see left handers very often, I

0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:54.440
<v Speaker 2>would think.

0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:56.920
<v Speaker 11>With I think it's just a novel idea to talk

0:18:56.960 --> 0:18:59.440
<v Speaker 11>about it, because there's not that many left handed pitchers

0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:02.640
<v Speaker 11>and base there's not that many left handed people generally

0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:05.879
<v Speaker 11>in the world, let alone in sports, and so I

0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:07.920
<v Speaker 11>guess it's just kind of a novel idea.

0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:12.720
<v Speaker 3>How would you pitch to Otani carefully?

0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:19.560
<v Speaker 11>I still watch seriously, I mean, you know, and Soto

0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.720
<v Speaker 11>and Judge, I mean these people that you know. And

0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:24.840
<v Speaker 11>I faced a lot of big home run hitters. You know,

0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:27.439
<v Speaker 11>for twenty two years, I gave up a lot of

0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:29.240
<v Speaker 11>home runs. I don't know where, you know, I.

0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:31.280
<v Speaker 5>Gave up four hundred and something home runs.

0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.760
<v Speaker 2>And we walk me through this Otani's at the plate.

0:19:36.240 --> 0:19:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Let's say first and bat against you well, and.

0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:42.120
<v Speaker 11>I've seen I've seen he pulls off the ball a lot,

0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:47.440
<v Speaker 11>and so I would probably be very careful pitching any

0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:51.480
<v Speaker 11>left hander down and in. The swing plane for a

0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:56.680
<v Speaker 11>left handed hitter is usually down and up, where as

0:19:56.720 --> 0:20:02.159
<v Speaker 11>a right handed hitter usually has a more level swing plane.

0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:04.600
<v Speaker 11>If you throw a ball, if you look at a

0:20:04.640 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 11>lot of home runs hit by a left handed hitter,

0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:11.600
<v Speaker 11>the ball is usually down and in because that's the

0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:15.240
<v Speaker 11>swing plane for a left handed hitter, whereas a right

0:20:15.280 --> 0:20:18.520
<v Speaker 11>handed hitter out over the middle of the plate. The

0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:22.560
<v Speaker 11>swing plane is more straight across, sweeping across home plate.

0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:24.720
<v Speaker 11>But I would be very careful with them. I would

0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:28.399
<v Speaker 11>start off, whether it was a ball or strike, letting

0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:31.399
<v Speaker 11>him know that I'm pitching in, get him off the plate,

0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:34.439
<v Speaker 11>and then I would try to elevate pitches.

0:20:34.440 --> 0:20:35.679
<v Speaker 5>I wouldn't pitch down and in.

0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:37.840
<v Speaker 11>I would elevate, but I know he can hit a

0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:40.840
<v Speaker 11>ball up too as well, and then I would work

0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 11>them down and a way. What about judge, Judge, I

0:20:46.119 --> 0:20:49.920
<v Speaker 11>would pitch like a Frank Thomas someone like that. I've

0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:53.359
<v Speaker 11>made mistakes to Frank and heat, the ball still orbiting somewhere,

0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:59.120
<v Speaker 11>but I would get ahead, hopefully hopefully, and then throw

0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:02.320
<v Speaker 11>my breaking ball down and in and hopefully I wouldn't

0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:05.080
<v Speaker 11>hang it, because if I did, he's going to hit

0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 11>at six hundred feet.

0:21:07.480 --> 0:21:09.479
<v Speaker 2>If I would have told you your rookie year that

0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:13.119
<v Speaker 2>you would win five cy Youngs, what would you have said?

0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:17.760
<v Speaker 11>I would have had you administer to some kind of

0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:19.520
<v Speaker 11>pee test or drug test.

0:21:21.240 --> 0:21:22.240
<v Speaker 5>I don't think that would have.

0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:25.960
<v Speaker 11>Uh, you know, a lot a lot happened, and it's

0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:26.879
<v Speaker 11>well documented.

0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:28.800
<v Speaker 5>After i'd you know, got together.

0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.920
<v Speaker 11>And and uh talked to Tom House and Nolan Ryan.

0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:35.480
<v Speaker 11>You know, that was really a pivotal and turning point

0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:37.560
<v Speaker 11>of my career. I had had a lot of pitching

0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:40.479
<v Speaker 11>coaches in the minor leagues up to that point. Uh,

0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:43.080
<v Speaker 11>and I'm very thankful for all of them, but none

0:21:43.119 --> 0:21:46.320
<v Speaker 11>of them really had that one little thing where it

0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:50.200
<v Speaker 11>got me over the hill and really.

0:21:51.400 --> 0:21:57.160
<v Speaker 5>Got my you know, consistency with my mechanics. Uh.

0:21:57.440 --> 0:22:01.800
<v Speaker 11>Having a conversation with them was, you know, a fifteen

0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:05.480
<v Speaker 11>minute conversation down in the in the bullpen, Tom House

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:08.200
<v Speaker 11>talking to me, watching Nolan Ryan do what Tom House

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.199
<v Speaker 11>is talking and then and then it was really up

0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:13.280
<v Speaker 11>to me to you know, go out there and do

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:15.119
<v Speaker 11>that and work on it. It was the middle of the

0:22:15.119 --> 0:22:18.879
<v Speaker 11>season when we had that conversation. Uh, and then it was,

0:22:18.960 --> 0:22:20.800
<v Speaker 11>you know, a matter of me working on this. And

0:22:20.840 --> 0:22:25.800
<v Speaker 11>when you've been doing something wrong or you know your way,

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:26.560
<v Speaker 11>and now all of a.

0:22:26.560 --> 0:22:29.639
<v Speaker 5>Sudden you're trying to change something, it's not easy.

0:22:30.160 --> 0:22:33.439
<v Speaker 11>It's just like, you know, I had hitters tell me

0:22:33.520 --> 0:22:37.359
<v Speaker 11>that I was tipping my pitches, and uh, you know,

0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:40.199
<v Speaker 11>I would fan my glove on a breaking ball and

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:44.920
<v Speaker 11>I would squeeze my glove on a fastball, and hitters, wow,

0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:48.520
<v Speaker 11>when you're looking at me getting ready to deliver, it's

0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:51.320
<v Speaker 11>just that fraction of a second that they need to

0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:55.879
<v Speaker 11>determine whether what's coming. And evidently I was doing that.

0:22:55.920 --> 0:22:58.320
<v Speaker 11>I would see it after they would tell me. But

0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:01.840
<v Speaker 11>you know what, I talked to lots of Hall of

0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:04.920
<v Speaker 11>Fame pitchers and they said that they were doing it.

0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:07.720
<v Speaker 11>It's not the easiest thing to change, even though you

0:23:07.880 --> 0:23:10.280
<v Speaker 11>want to, because you don't want to go out you

0:23:10.359 --> 0:23:13.320
<v Speaker 11>might as well just say, hey, fast falls coming, kind

0:23:13.320 --> 0:23:17.720
<v Speaker 11>of like you're throwing batting practice. But yeah, I mean,

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:23.040
<v Speaker 11>I just think changing things, whether it's mechanics.

0:23:25.840 --> 0:23:28.119
<v Speaker 5>You know, it's just difficult. But you know I was

0:23:28.160 --> 0:23:28.640
<v Speaker 5>able to.

0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:30.760
<v Speaker 11>Do that, and then it was early enough of my

0:23:30.800 --> 0:23:33.600
<v Speaker 11>career and then and then really reap the benefits of

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:35.720
<v Speaker 11>having those conversations with Nolan and Tom.

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:38.160
<v Speaker 3>But what kind of picture would you be today?

0:23:39.520 --> 0:23:42.800
<v Speaker 2>Let's say you know you're ready to be in the

0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:46.280
<v Speaker 2>major leagues, But how would baseball use Randy Johnson?

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:50.680
<v Speaker 5>I don't think. I don't think.

0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:54.560
<v Speaker 11>I think the only pitcher that would probably be still

0:23:54.600 --> 0:23:58.359
<v Speaker 11>really special as he was when he played, because he

0:23:58.440 --> 0:24:01.159
<v Speaker 11>was so good, he would be that same kind of

0:24:01.160 --> 0:24:04.680
<v Speaker 11>picture in today's game. I don't think is Greg Maddox

0:24:05.960 --> 0:24:10.119
<v Speaker 11>people like that. I don't think a power pitcher like

0:24:10.200 --> 0:24:15.600
<v Speaker 11>myself or Pedro or Roger in today's game would be

0:24:15.920 --> 0:24:19.560
<v Speaker 11>looked at in the same regards as we were in

0:24:19.680 --> 0:24:24.639
<v Speaker 11>our era. I think because velocity is more prevalent in

0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:28.680
<v Speaker 11>today's game. I think hitters can hit more velocity, high

0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:32.439
<v Speaker 11>velocity pitches. It's coming out of your starting pitcher, is

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:34.719
<v Speaker 11>coming out of your bullpen all the time, and I

0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:37.520
<v Speaker 11>just think they're adjusted to do it more now than

0:24:37.560 --> 0:24:40.120
<v Speaker 11>they were back in the nineties. Win maybe a handful

0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:42.840
<v Speaker 11>of people through the upper nineties, you know, ninety five

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:43.680
<v Speaker 11>to one hundred whatever.

0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:47.080
<v Speaker 2>It was talking to Randy Johnson, Hall of Famer and

0:24:47.359 --> 0:24:52.520
<v Speaker 2>joining us on behalf of direct TV the bird Ballpark campaign.

0:24:52.720 --> 0:24:54.480
<v Speaker 3>We got one of those that you sent to me.

0:24:55.280 --> 0:24:56.199
<v Speaker 3>That thing still.

0:24:56.400 --> 0:24:58.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I was going to say it lives on,

0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:01.159
<v Speaker 2>the bird doesn't live on, but just you blasting a

0:25:01.200 --> 0:25:03.399
<v Speaker 2>bird in spring training.

0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:10.119
<v Speaker 11>Twenty three years ago, Dan, And and that seems to

0:25:10.160 --> 0:25:13.959
<v Speaker 11>be running into anybody you know here there. That seems

0:25:14.000 --> 0:25:16.120
<v Speaker 11>to be the highlight of my career or what they

0:25:16.160 --> 0:25:20.600
<v Speaker 11>may remember. And so it was a great Uh, it's

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:27.240
<v Speaker 11>been a great partnership with direct TV. They used their

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:34.680
<v Speaker 11>direct TV satellite dishes in mimicking these these bird ballparks,

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:38.040
<v Speaker 11>and so it was a lot of fun to be

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:41.920
<v Speaker 11>a part of that. And uh and they're gonna bring

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:43.720
<v Speaker 11>one now to the Hall of Fame, and so I

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:46.160
<v Speaker 11>think more there'll be more exposure. And it's just been

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:49.920
<v Speaker 11>a great campaign, a lot of fun. And uh, you know, Dan,

0:25:51.880 --> 0:25:57.600
<v Speaker 11>for more information on streaming direct TV satellite free, go

0:25:57.720 --> 0:25:59.520
<v Speaker 11>to DirecTV dot com.

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 2>At you being a salesman, you're a you're a regular

0:26:02.800 --> 0:26:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Peyton Manning, did you Oh yeah, sure did you go

0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:09.719
<v Speaker 2>to USC for baseball and basketball. I see you got

0:26:09.720 --> 0:26:12.880
<v Speaker 2>your Trojan Henna baseball and basketball.

0:26:13.560 --> 0:26:17.240
<v Speaker 11>Well, let's be honest, Dan, I couldn't really jump, and

0:26:17.320 --> 0:26:20.240
<v Speaker 11>I didn't start playing basketball until my freshman year in

0:26:20.359 --> 0:26:22.119
<v Speaker 11>high school. Uh.

0:26:23.400 --> 0:26:25.800
<v Speaker 5>But the story is the.

0:26:27.760 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 11>When I got to high school, being a freshman, I

0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:33.800
<v Speaker 11>was probably around you know, six eight, six nine then

0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:39.399
<v Speaker 11>maybe about one hundred and sixties hundred and seventy pounds.

0:26:41.200 --> 0:26:41.720
<v Speaker 5>If you can.

0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:44.080
<v Speaker 3>Imagine intimidating, very intimidating.

0:26:44.760 --> 0:26:46.679
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, sure. Uh.

0:26:47.800 --> 0:26:52.560
<v Speaker 11>My pe teacher was also the basketball coach and asked,

0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:54.879
<v Speaker 11>because there wasn't a lot of you know, tall people

0:26:55.240 --> 0:26:57.080
<v Speaker 11>at my high school, he asked if I had any

0:26:57.080 --> 0:27:00.600
<v Speaker 11>interest in playing basketball, and I said, well, I've never

0:27:00.680 --> 0:27:03.680
<v Speaker 11>really played organized basketball before. You know, I've played Pop

0:27:03.720 --> 0:27:08.440
<v Speaker 11>Warner football, was a quarterback in a tennis and obviously baseball.

0:27:09.000 --> 0:27:11.960
<v Speaker 11>I would try, but I don't know much about, you know,

0:27:12.280 --> 0:27:15.600
<v Speaker 11>my footwork and playing basketball. So we worked at it

0:27:15.680 --> 0:27:19.320
<v Speaker 11>in pe classes and then I went out and played

0:27:19.359 --> 0:27:24.200
<v Speaker 11>three years of high school and I actually got offered

0:27:24.240 --> 0:27:26.800
<v Speaker 11>scholarships to play basketball.

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:28.359
<v Speaker 5>And that's not to say that I was.

0:27:28.359 --> 0:27:30.840
<v Speaker 11>Going to be any good, but you know, it just

0:27:30.920 --> 0:27:33.160
<v Speaker 11>goes to show for anybody.

0:27:32.680 --> 0:27:34.000
<v Speaker 5>That's listening right now.

0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:38.720
<v Speaker 11>You know, if you, you know, put your time and

0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:41.119
<v Speaker 11>effort into something, you never know what will come from it.

0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:45.520
<v Speaker 11>And so, but the USC thing was strictly baseball. Okay,

0:27:45.760 --> 0:27:49.200
<v Speaker 11>I think, but you know how you know, scholarships work.

0:27:49.280 --> 0:27:52.840
<v Speaker 11>There's a limited amount of scholarships in sports, and there

0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:55.639
<v Speaker 11>probably was even less or more a little bit more

0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:59.760
<v Speaker 11>back in the eighties. So I think they just kind

0:27:59.760 --> 0:28:02.200
<v Speaker 11>of it was baseball slash basketball.

0:28:03.040 --> 0:28:05.879
<v Speaker 2>In nineteen ninety two, Randy Johnson led the league in

0:28:05.920 --> 0:28:12.439
<v Speaker 2>strike ounce, walks, batters hit by pitch, and wild pitches. Congratulations,

0:28:12.880 --> 0:28:15.879
<v Speaker 2>thank you you were new to us.

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:16.679
<v Speaker 5>That's a record.

0:28:16.680 --> 0:28:20.800
<v Speaker 2>They were surely broken. Nobody wants to break that. Did

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:23.960
<v Speaker 2>you ever feel bad when you hit somebody?

0:28:25.480 --> 0:28:28.480
<v Speaker 5>Not always no, but.

0:28:28.600 --> 0:28:31.359
<v Speaker 11>You know what, a lot of times it was my

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:34.360
<v Speaker 11>breaking ball, my slider that and I would hit their

0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:35.080
<v Speaker 11>back foot.

0:28:35.480 --> 0:28:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, but how many guys do you think you

0:28:38.840 --> 0:28:40.360
<v Speaker 2>hit on purpose in your career?

0:28:40.840 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 5>What's that?

0:28:41.480 --> 0:28:43.560
<v Speaker 3>How many guys do you think you hit on purpose?

0:28:44.080 --> 0:28:48.040
<v Speaker 11>I don't know, Dan, Where do I rank as your

0:28:48.080 --> 0:28:50.080
<v Speaker 11>staff right now? My staff is out on the front

0:28:50.120 --> 0:28:54.000
<v Speaker 11>sidewalk right now, because I overworked them and underpay them.

0:28:54.040 --> 0:28:55.240
<v Speaker 5>So as your staff.

0:28:55.440 --> 0:28:57.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, where you rank on hit by pitches?

0:28:58.160 --> 0:28:58.360
<v Speaker 5>Yes?

0:28:58.520 --> 0:28:58.800
<v Speaker 4>Okay?

0:28:58.880 --> 0:28:59.720
<v Speaker 5>So where do I rank?

0:29:00.240 --> 0:29:00.520
<v Speaker 3>PAULI?

0:29:00.640 --> 0:29:02.000
<v Speaker 5>Do you know how many? Is that?

0:29:02.240 --> 0:29:02.600
<v Speaker 3>Okay?

0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:06.840
<v Speaker 7>I'm checking. It's easier to find batters hit by pitch?

0:29:06.920 --> 0:29:09.880
<v Speaker 7>But Randy Johnson, I have n't hitting one hundred and

0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:11.920
<v Speaker 7>ninety people in his career, which is up there?

0:29:12.080 --> 0:29:14.240
<v Speaker 11>Where does that rank? Is there any pitcher there's thrown

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:15.800
<v Speaker 11>hit batter more than that?

0:29:15.840 --> 0:29:16.640
<v Speaker 7>We're checking right now.

0:29:16.680 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 2>I gotta believe Nolan Ryan hit more guys than you,

0:29:19.200 --> 0:29:21.960
<v Speaker 2>I would think, and probably on purpose.

0:29:21.640 --> 0:29:24.480
<v Speaker 5>Too, probably half of them.

0:29:24.600 --> 0:29:26.800
<v Speaker 2>He might have been the meanest guy. Him and Bob

0:29:26.840 --> 0:29:29.400
<v Speaker 2>Gibson might have been the meanest guys I ever saw

0:29:29.440 --> 0:29:29.920
<v Speaker 2>in the mound.

0:29:30.680 --> 0:29:33.840
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, I obviously I got to see Nolan pitch. I

0:29:33.880 --> 0:29:35.400
<v Speaker 11>actually even pitched against him.

0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:37.640
<v Speaker 2>Wait, you have more? Does he have more hit by

0:29:37.680 --> 0:29:38.800
<v Speaker 2>pitches than Nolan Ryan?

0:29:38.920 --> 0:29:41.560
<v Speaker 7>Randy Johnson one ninety Nolan Ryan one fifty eight?

0:29:41.840 --> 0:29:44.560
<v Speaker 3>What is wrong with Nolan? Damn?

0:29:45.600 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 2>I think I could get Nolan Ryan throwing ninety miles

0:29:48.080 --> 0:29:49.680
<v Speaker 2>an hour if I gave him six weeks.

0:29:49.720 --> 0:29:54.440
<v Speaker 11>Randy, I don't doubt it. I don't doubt it. You know,

0:29:54.560 --> 0:30:01.120
<v Speaker 11>he's just he's one of those uh truly athletes that

0:30:01.200 --> 0:30:03.680
<v Speaker 11>come along once in a lifetime, not once in a

0:30:03.760 --> 0:30:06.320
<v Speaker 11>decade or whatever, you know, just once in a lifetime.

0:30:06.360 --> 0:30:11.200
<v Speaker 11>You won't you know that movie that facing Nolan, Uh

0:30:11.880 --> 0:30:14.680
<v Speaker 11>you watch the end of it. And when when you're

0:30:14.760 --> 0:30:19.120
<v Speaker 11>usually rolling the credits for a movie, you know the

0:30:19.240 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 11>names and all that stuff. Those are all of his accomplishments.

0:30:23.280 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 11>It's just like, come on, why do.

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:28.240
<v Speaker 7>You have an update, PAULI, Yeah, this is big news

0:30:28.960 --> 0:30:34.400
<v Speaker 7>unit your second all time only two. I got Walter

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 7>Johnson no relation.

0:30:36.120 --> 0:30:40.560
<v Speaker 5>And yes, absolutely look that up too, Walter John's family.

0:30:41.200 --> 0:30:44.520
<v Speaker 2>No, that was different. Walter Johnson pitched when you pitched

0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:45.920
<v Speaker 2>like sixty games.

0:30:45.600 --> 0:30:47.400
<v Speaker 7>A year than Randy Johnson.

0:30:47.440 --> 0:30:49.720
<v Speaker 2>If you look at in the modern day, Randy Johnson

0:30:49.800 --> 0:30:51.560
<v Speaker 2>hit more guys than any other pitch.

0:30:51.640 --> 0:30:54.640
<v Speaker 7>Yes, and hit batsman by start, you're the all time champ.

0:30:54.800 --> 0:30:56.960
<v Speaker 3>Congratulate about a round of applause.

0:30:56.520 --> 0:31:01.080
<v Speaker 5>For yeah, yeah right, But.

0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:04.800
<v Speaker 11>You're not sure that I didn't know before this conversation today.

0:31:04.920 --> 0:31:07.520
<v Speaker 3>But you don't know how many you hit on purpose?

0:31:08.600 --> 0:31:10.400
<v Speaker 5>No, I wouldn't say very many.

0:31:11.120 --> 0:31:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, who pissed you off for you go, you know what,

0:31:13.200 --> 0:31:15.640
<v Speaker 2>somebody's got to take somebody getting drilled here.

0:31:16.200 --> 0:31:18.120
<v Speaker 5>Well, you know it was Uh.

0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:23.400
<v Speaker 11>I usually only retaliated if and I would always ask

0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:27.160
<v Speaker 11>my hitter if he felt like he got hit on purpose,

0:31:27.680 --> 0:31:30.600
<v Speaker 11>and if he did, then I obviously would hit retaliate.

0:31:31.680 --> 0:31:31.800
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:31:32.240 --> 0:31:35.600
<v Speaker 11>But what I come to realize, uh, and what would

0:31:35.600 --> 0:31:38.000
<v Speaker 11>be kind of like the inside joke on the bench

0:31:38.160 --> 0:31:40.600
<v Speaker 11>during the game was the days that I was pitching

0:31:40.960 --> 0:31:43.760
<v Speaker 11>most of our hitters, my hitters.

0:31:43.520 --> 0:31:45.320
<v Speaker 5>Didn't have to worry about getting.

0:31:45.080 --> 0:31:49.840
<v Speaker 11>Hit because if they did, then there was going to

0:31:49.920 --> 0:31:51.960
<v Speaker 11>be you know, hell to pay, you know. And so

0:31:52.600 --> 0:31:55.560
<v Speaker 11>I'm sure those hitters on the other team told the pitcher,

0:31:55.640 --> 0:31:56.480
<v Speaker 11>make sure you don't.

0:31:56.280 --> 0:31:57.720
<v Speaker 5>Pitch inside too much today.

0:31:59.040 --> 0:32:02.160
<v Speaker 11>But I did protect my hitters, and I didn't have

0:32:02.160 --> 0:32:03.840
<v Speaker 11>a problem with that at all. I'm not out there

0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:06.680
<v Speaker 11>to you know, hit anybody or not not out there

0:32:06.720 --> 0:32:07.600
<v Speaker 11>to hurt anybody.

0:32:07.600 --> 0:32:09.880
<v Speaker 5>But I'm out there to protect my players. And that

0:32:10.040 --> 0:32:12.880
<v Speaker 5>was just a way the game has always been played.

0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:15.280
<v Speaker 3>Who's your pick on the World Series?

0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 11>Well, I saw today that it's Coal and Flaherty. I

0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:24.360
<v Speaker 11>was kind of hoping I wanted to see Cole and Yakamoto.

0:32:24.760 --> 0:32:28.160
<v Speaker 5>Is that is that was his name. I'm pronounce Yamamota.

0:32:28.160 --> 0:32:29.400
<v Speaker 5>Excuse me, excuse me.

0:32:30.200 --> 0:32:32.840
<v Speaker 11>I was kind of hoping to see that matchup because

0:32:32.880 --> 0:32:36.320
<v Speaker 11>I think that will be the tail tale of how

0:32:36.400 --> 0:32:42.920
<v Speaker 11>this whole thing is going to pan out. But uh,

0:32:43.120 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 11>I think anything can happen. I don't think it's going

0:32:46.280 --> 0:32:49.640
<v Speaker 11>to be a short series. I think, you know, I

0:32:49.800 --> 0:32:52.320
<v Speaker 11>watched the National League much more than the American League,

0:32:52.320 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 11>so I've been watching the Dodgers a lot, and obviously

0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:56.320
<v Speaker 11>when they come through Arizona, I see them.

0:32:56.320 --> 0:32:58.400
<v Speaker 5>I watched the series against San Diego.

0:33:00.760 --> 0:33:04.320
<v Speaker 11>I think I think, excuse me, I think the Doggers

0:33:04.360 --> 0:33:06.520
<v Speaker 11>will inevitably win, but I think it's going to be

0:33:06.520 --> 0:33:10.320
<v Speaker 11>a close series. I'm just kind of curious to see

0:33:10.360 --> 0:33:15.440
<v Speaker 11>how Roberts uses the bullpen like he's been doing. You know,

0:33:16.000 --> 0:33:18.840
<v Speaker 11>if they can hold up and keep doing what they've

0:33:18.840 --> 0:33:22.800
<v Speaker 11>been doing for the most part successfully, you know, then

0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:25.600
<v Speaker 11>I then I think, uh, the pitching is really what's

0:33:25.640 --> 0:33:29.200
<v Speaker 11>going to you know, have to you know, rise to

0:33:29.240 --> 0:33:31.680
<v Speaker 11>the top. That's what that's what's gonna shut down both

0:33:31.800 --> 0:33:32.880
<v Speaker 11>mega offenses.

0:33:34.720 --> 0:33:38.440
<v Speaker 3>Great to talk to you again, my pleasure next.

0:33:38.280 --> 0:33:42.240
<v Speaker 5>Year at some point the State of the Union Address.

0:33:41.880 --> 0:33:44.280
<v Speaker 3>Again Okay, I appreciate that.

0:33:44.760 --> 0:33:47.760
<v Speaker 2>And uh if you you know once you find that

0:33:47.880 --> 0:33:51.160
<v Speaker 2>Cy Young, that I mean, you got five of them, Like,

0:33:51.640 --> 0:33:54.440
<v Speaker 2>what's what's losing one really matter to you?

0:33:55.960 --> 0:33:59.000
<v Speaker 11>How About how about like some kind of baseball or

0:33:59.200 --> 0:34:03.840
<v Speaker 11>patch or I can babblehead for your desk right here, Cy.

0:34:03.760 --> 0:34:05.240
<v Speaker 3>Young, look a whole lot better.

0:34:05.880 --> 0:34:07.680
<v Speaker 11>All right, Well, you know what, next time we have

0:34:07.720 --> 0:34:10.480
<v Speaker 11>a conversation, I'll have all five of them right behind me.

0:34:10.640 --> 0:34:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, there'd be a nice little backdrop. Okay, be nice.

0:34:15.400 --> 0:34:16.200
<v Speaker 2>Great to talk to you.

0:34:16.280 --> 0:34:18.680

<v Speaker 3>Clip there.

0:34:30.480 --> 0:34:32.640
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Tom, that's the same guy that was so scary

0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:34.040
<v Speaker 2>on the man that we used to watch pitch.

0:34:34.040 --> 0:34:34.840
<v Speaker 4>That's amazing to me.

0:34:35.280 --> 0:34:38.720
<v Speaker 2>Only on game day. That's when you didn't approach him.

0:34:39.280 --> 0:34:41.359
<v Speaker 2>I made the mistake of approaching him on game day

0:34:41.440 --> 0:34:44.239
<v Speaker 2>at Wrigley Field. It didn't go well. We'll take a

0:34:44.239 --> 0:34:45.480
<v Speaker 2>break back after this.

0:37:17.960 --> 0:37:20.680
<v Speaker 4>Good times. JJ leads the Vikings to a wing.

<v Speaker 5>Oh there you go, Okay, thank you times. Yeah.

0:37:26.960 --> 0:37:28.800
<v Speaker 7>I thought about J. J. McCarthy was like, I don't.

0:37:30.800 --> 0:37:33.759
<v Speaker 3>Hurt JJ Walker. I love that dude.

0:37:33.760 --> 0:37:36.080
<v Speaker 6>Man, he's become one of my favorite guys in sports,

0:37:36.280 --> 0:37:39.280
<v Speaker 6>sing Justin Justin Jefferson.

0:37:39.320 --> 0:37:40.160
<v Speaker 3>I love that, dude.

0:37:40.200 --> 0:37:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Man, oh, I thought you were talking about JJ McCarthy.

0:37:44.120 --> 0:37:44.640
<v Speaker 5>Should j J.

0:37:44.760 --> 0:37:46.799
<v Speaker 7>McCarthy have to give up the JJ because he was

0:37:46.840 --> 0:37:47.680
<v Speaker 7>second on the team.

0:37:48.000 --> 0:37:50.279
<v Speaker 2>If Justin Jefferson wants it right, he's going to get

0:37:50.320 --> 0:37:51.680
<v Speaker 2>it absolutely.

0:37:51.840 --> 0:37:58.759
<v Speaker 3>Jets is a great nickname though, Jets. Yeah, JJ, I

0:37:58.760 --> 0:38:01.920
<v Speaker 3>think I think Justin Jefferson his nickname is Jets. Oh okay, yeah,

0:38:02.160 --> 0:38:02.400
<v Speaker 3>that's like.

0:38:02.560 --> 0:38:02.920
<v Speaker 12>I like that.

0:38:03.120 --> 0:38:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Michael and Fort Wayne. Hi, Mike, thanks for holding

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:06.839
<v Speaker 2>what's on your mind?

0:38:08.239 --> 0:38:10.440
<v Speaker 13>Heygo mornin Dan, thanks for taking my call. Prayers for

0:38:10.560 --> 0:38:13.040
<v Speaker 13>your shoulder and also prayers for my jaw, which just

0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:19.479
<v Speaker 13>hit the floor after Seaton's most recent comment, wow wow. Yeah.

0:38:19.520 --> 0:38:21.960
<v Speaker 13>You talked earlier this week quite a bit about Tua

0:38:22.320 --> 0:38:24.359
<v Speaker 13>and his guardian helmet, and I'd like to share one

0:38:24.400 --> 0:38:26.319
<v Speaker 13>perspective that's not been discussed yet.

0:38:27.000 --> 0:38:27.840
<v Speaker 12>I propose that the.

0:38:27.920 --> 0:38:31.520
<v Speaker 13>NFL does not want him anywhere near a guardian helmet,

0:38:31.520 --> 0:38:34.360
<v Speaker 13>and I'll tell you why. According to the NFL, the

0:38:34.400 --> 0:38:38.640
<v Speaker 13>helmet reduces concussions by about fifty percent, and that is

0:38:38.800 --> 0:38:43.279
<v Speaker 13>not enough to help Tua. Sua has had ugly concussions,

0:38:43.320 --> 0:38:45.480
<v Speaker 13>not just getting his bell rung and running off the field,

0:38:45.760 --> 0:38:48.759
<v Speaker 13>but neurological symptoms while he's collapsed on the field and

0:38:48.840 --> 0:38:52.520
<v Speaker 13>dramatically stopping play. And the NFL does not want him

0:38:52.560 --> 0:38:55.720
<v Speaker 13>wearing a guardian helmet if it happens again.

0:38:56.200 --> 0:38:58.440
<v Speaker 3>All right, well, thank you, Michael.

0:38:59.360 --> 0:39:03.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't think the NFL once amount they're playing uh

0:39:03.239 --> 0:39:05.160
<v Speaker 2>Sean in Cincinnati, Hi Sean.

0:39:07.040 --> 0:39:08.879
<v Speaker 12>Hey Dan, thanks so much for taking my call.

0:39:09.040 --> 0:39:09.279
<v Speaker 1>YEP.

0:39:10.600 --> 0:39:14.400
<v Speaker 12>Just wanted to make a quick complaint. Not that I

0:39:14.400 --> 0:39:17.239
<v Speaker 12>would ever complain about the show, but one of the

0:39:17.320 --> 0:39:21.080
<v Speaker 12>dan EPs has has really affected my Thursday night football viewing.

0:39:21.719 --> 0:39:25.200
<v Speaker 12>Not only have the games not been great, but all

0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:27.800
<v Speaker 12>I can hear now when I watch Thursday night football

0:39:28.360 --> 0:39:30.960
<v Speaker 12>is Seatan in the back of my head going in.

0:39:31.040 --> 0:39:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Beer Saton Satan doing is al Michael's impersonation.

0:39:36.560 --> 0:39:40.680
<v Speaker 3>He goes in there, regal when you did it? To

0:39:40.719 --> 0:39:43.120
<v Speaker 3>al Michaels he goes, I sound like that, I think,

0:39:43.120 --> 0:39:46.520
<v Speaker 3>he said. I hope I don't sound in their regal.

0:39:46.840 --> 0:39:49.919
<v Speaker 3>It was unfortunate, Todd. Would you learn today? How would

0:39:49.920 --> 0:39:52.080
