67
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: Miami South Florida, and the legend of Marlin's Man was

68
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 2: in the Hissy that's his home ballpark, not that he

69
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 2: goes very often because the Marlin suck, but there he

70
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: was Marlin's Man. He paid five grand, he sent me.

71
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: I was texting him during the game because I was like, hey,

72
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: this guy cool. I know the guy sitting right behind

73
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 2: home plate, might as well text him. So I was

74
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 2: a textan Marlin's Man and He's like, hey, he spent

75
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 2: five thousand dollars for the seat right behind home plate

76
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: so he could watch the semi finals of the World

77
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 2: Baseball Classic, Team US Say against an Absolute Wagon from

78
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: the Dominican Republic Squad. It was on FS one. Did

79
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 2: you watch will you check it? No, you were not

80
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 2: watching all right? Well you missed out. Uh maybe maybe

81
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 2: you didn't pay any attention. You didn't know what's on.

82
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on.

83
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: Well we watched that.

84
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 2: You would not have to Gunner Henderson, who was in

85
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: the lineup because the cheating astro Alex Bregman was given

86
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: the day off there, so Gunner Henderson and Roman Anthony

87
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 2: of the Red Sox. He had an oriole and a

88
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: Red Sox teaming up hitting home runs and USA USA

89
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 2: contained the high powered Dominican Republic's offense, the very robust offense.

90
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: There in a game that came to.

91
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 2: The final pitch two to one the final as Team USA.

92
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: Wins and they are now one win.

93
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 2: Away from the second World Baseball Classic Championship. This thing's

94
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 2: only been around for twenty years, and they got some

95
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: help from the inflated strike zone. There is no replay

96
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: in the World Baseball Classic on pitches, so the final pitch,

97
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: which was clearly low, was called the strike.

98
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 1: And that was it.

99
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 2: Turn out, the last the parties over for the team

100
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 2: from the Dominican Republic, now the NL reigning Cy Young

101
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 2: winner from the Petsburg Pirates, Paul Skins. He got the

102
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: ball for the Americans. He went out there. He's two

103
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: and zero in the Baseball World Baseball Classic. He gave

104
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: up one run on six hits in four and a

105
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: third innings, and the USA bullpen came in a hodgepodge

106
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: of relief pitchers and held the Dominicans high powered offense

107
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 2: scoreless the rest of the way. So the team representing America,

108
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 2: wrapping themselves in the flag now, will take on the

109
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: winner of the game which will be played later today

110
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 2: on this Monday, the Italians Americans, the Italians versus Venezuela,

111
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: and that'll be in the winter. That game will play

112
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 2: Tuesday night, Tuesday night for the championship of the World

113
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: Baseball Classic. The story here, though, for many, has been

114
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 2: Paul Skins and his performance in this game.

115
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: Lot of love.

116
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 2: That's a good jumping off point the Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher

117
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 2: Paul Skins. So let us discuss the question does this

118
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: WBC performance solidify the legend of pitcher Paul Skeins? Does

119
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: it solidify it as he dominated? Many are saying he dominated.

120
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: I'll trust that in a minute. So I've got Planet

121
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 2: Fitness supersized and twilight Zone and we will combine all

122
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: of these things together, and we are going to break dance,

123
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: is what we're going to do. So number why?

124
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: Number why? All right?

125
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 2: So this was billboarded. It was billboarded as Paul Skin's

126
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 2: most important start since becoming a professional pitcher, that this

127
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: was it. This was the most pressure that he's been

128
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: under playing in Pittsburgh. The season ends when they leave

129
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 2: Florida to start the regular season. The Pirates have been

130
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: eliminated from playoff contention. So in terms of how he

131
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: did and rising to the challenge and that he.

132
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 1: Dominated, I don't eat dominated. Oh you're such a buzzk.

133
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: I don't think he dominated. Am I supposed to lie?

134
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 1: Do you want me to lie? I don't think he did.

135
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: So pump the brakes on the ticket tape parade. And

136
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 2: here's why everybody's acting like Paul Skins just walked out

137
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 2: of some cornfield in Iowa like to feel the dreams

138
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 2: and saved baseball. Yeah, pump the brakes on that right,

139
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 2: slow your row. What are you doing now? It's the

140
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 2: middle part of March, as we're talking here, It's the

141
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 2: middle part of March. Now was Paul Skin's good.

142
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: Sure he was good. He was good. Yes, he was good.

143
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: I said that he was good.

144
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 2: Legendary is that the stuff of legends, Not where I

145
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 2: come from. Maybe where you come from, but where I

146
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: come from, that is not the stuff of legends. It's

147
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 2: not He went four and a third innings, seventy one

148
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 2: pitches for Paul Skins.

149
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: That's it. Seventy one.

150
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 2: Was you Rambo? He's not Rambo. That was not a

151
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: Rambo performance. That was a guy jogging on a treadmill

152
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 2: at Planet Fitness. Okay, good, you're on a trademill. Congratulate,

153
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 2: but you're not running the marathon. That's not the marathon.

154
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 2: You were on a treadmill at Planet Fitness.

155
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 1: That's it.

156
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 2: Part of the issue that we have with the World

157
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 2: Baseball Classic is that it's training wheels baseball with the pitch.

158
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 2: It's training wheels baseball that they're not buying in. Everyone's

159
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: worried about liability and protecting the players and all that,

160
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: and there's a lot of money involved. I get it,

161
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: but you can't sell this as the end all be

162
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: all when you have caps on everything when it comes

163
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 2: to the pitching, you can't do it. It's training wheels baseball,

164
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,959
Speaker 2: So well, you're not gonna win the Tour de France

165
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 2: if you got the training wheels on, You're not.

166
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: That's not it. Now, the crowd was pro.

167
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 2: Dominican, even though the game was in Miami and it

168
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: was like a home game for the team from the

169
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 2: Dominican Republic there, and it was it seemed like a

170
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: great atmosphere watching on TV. I don't know if it

171
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 2: was actually in the ballparking on it sometimes that's misleading. Uh,

172
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 2: it looked like it was pretty cool in the ballpark

173
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: and all that. Now, that said, the legends of Team USA.

174
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: Didn't didn't dominate, didn't. I didn't see a lot of domination.

175
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: I did not. They were dodging a lot of bullets.

176
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: They did that.

177
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 2: Bryce Harper and Aaron Judge combined to go two for

178
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: eight in this game. Judge did have a home run

179
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 2: taken away by Jay Riding center field, So you got

180
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: to hit it further than just at the base of

181
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: the at the very top of the wall, otherwise there's

182
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 2: a chance the ball will be taken back and he

183
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 2: will lose a home run. And those guys batting two

184
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 2: point fifty in this game they were upstaged Bryce Harper

185
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 2: and Aaron Judge upstayed staged by Gunner Henderson and Roman

186
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 2: Anthony as they hit the home runs.

187
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: And Roman Anthony was on.

188
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 2: The postgame on FS one. There didn't seem all that

189
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 2: thrilled to get a T shirt from Big Poppy. They

190
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 2: might want to upgrade the prize on that. Those guys

191
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: never seem all that excited to get a T shirt

192
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 2: from Big Poppy on the FS one pre game.

193
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: Anyway or postgame.

194
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 2: So page two, the loser side, Now you know, the

195
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: better story is in the losing locker room and many

196
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: questioning the integrity of the umpire and that final pitch

197
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 2: to the Dominican Republic and the two to one loss

198
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: to the United States there and the pitch was clearly

199
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 2: not a strike, but it was called a strike that

200
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 2: ended the game.

201
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: There is no reviews, so that's it.

202
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: And imagining next time they do this in a couple

203
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: of years, they will have they will have the review available.

204
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: They didn't have it this time. So that was it,

205
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 2: and the Dominican Republic losers. Now Albert Pulos, who's getting

206
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 2: paid ten million dollars a year by the Angels to

207
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 2: manage the Dominican Republic gam So Albert there is out

208
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 2: there and he didn't put blame. He said, he didn't

209
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 2: put any blame on the umpires. The manager of the

210
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 2: Dominican Republic says, I don't want to focus on that

211
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 2: last pitch. Albert Pulos said, I'm not going to criticize

212
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 2: any of that. It wasn't meant to be close.

213
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: Quote.

214
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 2: Okay, So question here it is who gets the biggest

215
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 2: bowl of blame Stu? The biggest bowl of blame Stu

216
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: for the Dominican Republic stars, an all star squad not

217
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: getting it done. So I would consider that scoring one

218
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 2: run in a game to advance to the championship for

219
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 2: a roster as loaded as the Dominican the World Baseball

220
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 2: Class has only been around for twenty years, that's got

221
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 2: to be greatest choke job, greatest choke job by a

222
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 2: loaded offense in the history of the World Baseball Classic.

223
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 2: Does anyone disagree with that? No one disagrees with that? Okay, good, good?

224
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: That roster.

225
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: You look at the line up there for the World

226
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 2: Baseball Classic, the Dominican Republic team, it was like the

227
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 2: Avengers movie, is what it was. And the pitching, which

228
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 2: is supposedly the weak spot for the Dominican Republic. They

229
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 2: only limited the USA squad to two runs. You figure

230
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 2: US only scores two runs, the Dominicans are going to

231
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 2: win the game. It's not like Paul Skeins pitched the

232
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 2: entire game. As we said, four and a third innings

233
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 2: and that was it. This roster if you didn't see

234
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 2: the game loaded, if you haven't watched the Dominican Republic team,

235
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 2: you can't watch them now because they're out. But roster

236
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 2: loaded with MVP candidates.

237
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: Literally in the air. Every one.

238
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 2: You had chest puffing, pelvic thrusting, bat flipping like they'd

239
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 2: already won the whole damn thing.

240
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: Early on in the game, they were.

241
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 2: Very excited and then poof squad douche. You get squad doosh.

242
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 2: Six of the top ten most Valuable Player voters in

243
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: terms of the guys that got the votes for the MVP,

244
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 2: six of the top ten were playing in this for

245
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 2: the Dominican team, and those guys mostly went about as

246
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 2: quiet as it's like going to the library during finals

247
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: week at to pick your favorite university. Back in the day,

248
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: the Supersized Bowl, the super Sized Bowl of suck ste well,

249
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 2: that goes to one. Soto, come on down one. Congratulations, Yes,

250
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 2: seven hundred and sixty five million.

251
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: The Mets are paying this guy.

252
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 3: I don't know.

253
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 2: It wasn't a Mets game. I get all that he

254
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: had four bat he went zero for four. Juan Soto.

255
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 2: The lights bright. Now the Mets. Who knows if they're

256
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 2: ever gonna make the League Championship Series of the World

257
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: Series with Juan Soto.

258
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: There's no guarantee.

259
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 2: One one of the great bag chasing stories of my lifetime,

260
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 2: and based on the money, he made the greatest bag

261
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 2: chasing story. Good for him. He also butter fingered in

262
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 2: error fielding a ball out in the outfield. So not

263
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: exactly a superstar performance on the big stage here for

264
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: Juan Soto. More like a ghost, more like a goes

265
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: seven hundred and sixty five million. And there was a

266
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 2: gunfight and he brought a butter knife. That's not that great.

267
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 2: But what do I know?

268
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: I just do the Overnight show. What do I know?

269
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: Here? And the how about the Padre bash brothers? How

270
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 2: about these twos for Broni's Did you see what they

271
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 2: were up to? Fernando Tatise and Manny Machato. They went

272
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 2: two for eight. My computer, like brain, tells me that's

273
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: a two to fifty batting average. The Big Boppers turned

274
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 2: into floppers in this game, and eight guys left on

275
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 2: base for the Dominican Republic Team eight. And again they

276
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: were strutting around here. At the beginning of this game.

277
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 2: They were like Pete Cox with their feathers up in

278
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 2: the air, and even early in the tournament and they

279
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 2: were hitting all I think they set a record for

280
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 2: home runs in the World Baseball Classic. And then the

281
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 2: bill came and they shrank and they had alligator arms

282
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: is what they had, Not Kyler Murray, but they just

283
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 2: had alligator arms.

284
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: That's it.

285
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 2: And so the last strike was garbage. I'm not gonna

286
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 2: sit here and argue it and say, well the umpire

287
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 2: got it right. No, But however, it should never have

288
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 2: come down to that. I'll concede that was not a strike,

289
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: which is obvious. You cry about it.

290
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: How do you.

291
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: Only have one run going to that point? Again, Paul

292
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 2: Skins did not pitch into the eighth inning. You had

293
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: the flotsam and jetsam of the Team USA bullpen and

294
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: a lot of Okay, there's not great pitchers out there,

295
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 2: and you didn't do anything in terms of scoring runs.

296
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: Bad job by.

297
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 2: You get plenty of chances to avoid leaving the game

298
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,639
Speaker 2: in the hands of the umpire in the ninth inning.

299
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: So loser talk.

300
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 2: USA was better in the moment, only by a little bit.

301
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 2: A couple of home runs. That's all it took to

302
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 2: win the game, all right. Meanwhile, final point to pro

303
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 2: bouncy ball. Why we need to pause and celebrate one

304
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: of the great hustles of the modern world. You talk

305
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 2: about getting the bag. We talked about Juan Soto getting

306
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 2: the bag. Well, this is next level as well. After

307
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 2: sitting out the game on Sunday for Philly, congratulations clap here,

308
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 2: Congratulations to sixer star Joel Embiid, who has now officially

309
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 2: missed as many regular season games as he has played

310
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 2: in during his career. So very hard to do, but

311
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 2: Joel Embid has managed.

312
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: To do it.

313
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 2: Somewhere on the other side, Bill Walton across the pearly

314
00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 2: gates is shaking his head.

315
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: Uh so, yeah, let's let that marinate for a second.

316
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 2: Joel Embiid has missed as many games as he has

317
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 2: played in in his NBA career. So the question for

318
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: the panel, how do you react to Joel Embiid and

319
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: that amazing factoid that he has now missed as many

320
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 2: games as he's played in during his NBA career four

321
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty five games missed, four hundred and eighty

322
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 2: five games played in. That's it, that's all. So my

323
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: first thought is this is something out of the twilight Zone.

324
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 2: It is out of the Joel Embiid is a living, breathing,

325
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 2: fifty to fifty raffle ticket. You never know what you're

326
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 2: gonna get when you show up to the areata. Will

327
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 2: Joel Embiid play or not?

328
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: Now? Remember the old slogan they.

329
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 2: Were shoving down everyone's throat in Philadelphia, Trust the Process.

330
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 2: Trust the Process. That was not a rebuilding plan. It

331
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: was not a rebuilding. But that was a late night

332
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: infomercial is what it was. And they were selling snake

333
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 2: and it was a Bogo buy one, get one freeze

334
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 2: snake oil deal. Come on down, everybody, Now you just

335
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 2: wait three to five years and prestale you're gonna win

336
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,959
Speaker 2: a championship. The championship will magically appear. Trust the Process on.

337
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 2: We don't want that, Oh no, no, on just listen, it's

338
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 2: gonna work. And no, no, no, well listen, we've now

339
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 2: gone way more than five years and the results are in.

340
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 2: They suck and when they don't suck, they blow. There

341
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 2: she blows the seventy six ers Joel Andbid. Remember he

342
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 2: came into the NBA with a medical report that was

343
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 2: thicker than a cheesecake factory menu.

344
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: Philly knew it, everybody knew it. Now the guy had to.

345
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 2: Get for gap coming out of Kansas, Joel MB He's like, boy,

346
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 2: this guy's got that star Aura. However, in the modern NBA,

347
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 2: you think about where we are right now, in the NBA,

348
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 2: where they baby and coddle the players, and they never

349
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: expect you to do more than the bare minimum. Joel

350
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 2: Embiid has failed to meet that threshold, which is hard

351
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 2: to do. All right, Bubble rap, spoon feed you minutes.

352
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 2: Early in his career, he didn't even play the first

353
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 2: couple years getting paid. He didn't even play. Load management

354
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 2: to infinity and beyond load management, the whole spa treatment,

355
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 2: the many, the petty, the whole thing. And now congratulation,

356
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 2: happy birthday today. As we're doing this in real time,

357
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 2: is Joel Embid's birthday, So happy birthday to Joel Embiid,

358
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 2: one of the great scam artists of our time. Thirty

359
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 2: two years old now, Joel Embiid, and in big man

360
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 2: years in the NBA, A lot of gray hairs in

361
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: the beard, Yeah, a lot of gray hairs. It's not

362
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 2: no gray, no, no, there's a lot of gray, a

363
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 2: lot of gray. And the athletic prime, the hour glass,

364
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 2: the sands of the hourglass running out in the athletic

365
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 2: prime of Joel Embiid as he gets hemorrhoids on the bench.

366
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 2: Now when he's played, has he been right? Sure most

367
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 2: of the time. The numbers are good. Play Fantasy basketball,

368
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 2: very very good. Absolutely won a rather bogus MVP. It

369
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 2: didn't win it. Nicole Jokic should have, could have would

370
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 2: have won, but it went to Joel Embiid. And he's played,

371
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 2: He's mostly put up dominant stats and all that. But

372
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 2: in an era with Kawhi Leonard, in an era with

373
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis, Joel Embiid is the epitome of what this

374
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:31,400
Speaker 2: era is. Drafted, missed two years and gotten paid all

375
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: this money. Good for him, the riches of Solomon, and

376
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,199
Speaker 2: he doesn't seem bothered by it. It's like he just

377
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 2: doesn't seem to care that he doesn't play. It's like,

378
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 2: I must be the generation I like when I miss work,

379
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 2: I feel guilty. I'm like, oh my god, I shouldn't

380
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 2: they need me? You know, like I need to be there.

381
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 2: These guys in the NBA like, no, we don't care.

382
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: It's so good. I wish I was wired that way.

383
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 2: It'd be great. Live your life like that. Who cares

384
00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: if he show up to work? You know? If we

385
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 2: getting paid thirty forty million dollars year, it doesn't matter

386
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 2: and beat for all the numbers. When the playoffs come around,

387
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 2: the Sixers keep waiting for Superman to show up, and

388
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 2: instead they get Johnny Thunder.

389
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: An ordinary human is.

390
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 2: What they get anyway. It is the Ben Mahler Show.

391
