Goodbye nineteen sixty two Mets. Hello twenty 13 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 2: twenty four White Sox. You know, making history is oftentimes 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 2: serious business or epic or melodramatic, but not always. Sometimes 15 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: it's even hilarious humorous. Take the nineteen sixty two Mets. 16 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 2: Until Friday, they were the losing his team in the 17 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: history of Major League Baseball. They were managed by Kathy Stenegel. 18 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 2: They lost one hundred and twenty games in their inaugural season, 19 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 2: but they did it with this sort of a pinachat 20 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 2: the flair that will never be duplicated. Here's an example, 21 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: they have this rookie shortstop. His name was Eliot Chacone, 22 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: super athletic, dazzling fielder. He displayed such a lack of 23 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 2: awareness with complete raw efficiency that it's almost too absurd 24 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: to believe, but it's all true. Whenever a pop fly 25 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 2: would float into left center field, Chackne would pursue with 26 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: a vengeance. Many times he crashed into the centerfielder, the 27 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 2: Mets centerfielder Jim Hickman, knocking him to the ground, inevitably 28 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 2: causing him to drop the fly ball. True story, This 29 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: happened multiple times. Finally, Hickman's teammate Joe Christopher suggested that 30 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: Hickman yell outyolo tangoyolo tango instead of I got it, 31 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: because see Chacone didn't speak English, and clearly I got it. 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: Wasn't working. Sure enough, a few days later, right on 33 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 2: que a flyball drifts it into short center field, Hickman 34 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: camped under it. Youo lo tango, youo lo tangoyoltango. You 35 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 2: could hear it all the way to Staten Island, And yes, 36 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: sure enough, Elia Chacone peeled away, giving Hickman plenty of 37 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: space to feel the popfly and Just as it reached 38 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 2: his glove, Hickman was slammed to the turf by the 39 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: Met's left fielder Frank Thomas, who conveniently enough didn't speak Spanish. 40 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 2: You know what he Allen said it best, Nostalgia is 41 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: a trap. You know who else made history on Thursday, 42 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 2: the Oakland A's. They played their final game in Oakland. 43 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: Sometimes history is nostalgia, you see, because for many people, 44 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 2: the power of sports fandom is he's darned near a 45 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: religious experience. Thousands of people packed themselves in the stadium's 46 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: venues arenas. They're there to root their team, provide emotional support. 47 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 2: But the chair they boo. But it's all toward a 48 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: single cause. There's majesty in that, even if beers now 49 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 2: cost about twenty five bucks a piece these days. But 50 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: I digress from afar. I wasn't there that stadium many times. 51 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: What happened Thursday in Oakland felt like one of those 52 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 2: religious experiences in the best way, but yet the most 53 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 2: painful way. Nearly forty seven thousand people jammed into Oakland 54 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: Alomuna County Coliseum to see the Oakland A's play one 55 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 2: last time. It was joyful, The joyfulness of these people 56 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: was evident, but even more evident and obvious was their pain. 57 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: There was a tangible, visceral feel, so human, so relatable. 58 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: Woody Allen said it best, Nostalgia is a trap. Forty 59 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: six eight and eighty nine fans came through the turnstiles Thursday, 60 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: hoping for one last memory in Oakland, and they wound 61 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: up on nostalgia overload. Ricky Henderson and Dave Stewart, both 62 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 2: Oakland A's legends and Oakland natives who rank among the 63 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: Oakland A's greatest players, they combined to throughout the first pitch. 64 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: Barry Zito, who won the Scion Award back in twenty 65 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 2: oh two, sang the national anthem, and for more than 66 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 2: a full hour before the game, the Video Scoreboard aired 67 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 2: the broadcast of the nineteen seventy two World Series, the 68 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 2: first of three consecutive World Series titles for the Old 69 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: Swing and A's of that era. This wasn't that these 70 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 2: modern Oakland A's lost at least ninety games for three 71 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: straight seasons, but the final note on this day long 72 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 2: Swanselng will nevertheless rank among the most memorable days of 73 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: Oakland fans in coliseum history. Cars lined up outside the 74 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:02,239 Speaker 2: gates before seven am for a twelve thirty local start. 75 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 2: Fans cheered the action as if the pent were on 76 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 2: the line. Especially the A's have a center fielder named 77 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 2: JJ Bleday. You may or may not have heard of him, 78 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 2: but you'd have thought it was the seventh game of 79 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 2: the World Series. He raced through his right to make 80 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: a spectacular diving catch on a call hit by Carson Kelly, 81 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 2: and the place went bananas. I'm told that driving in 82 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 2: the gates Thursday and seeing the fullness of the parking 83 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 2: lot and feeling the energy the emotion of all the 84 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: fans was something these people will never forget, they'll treasure 85 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: for the rest of their lives. But there was also 86 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: palpable anger on the day. There were shirts bearing the 87 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: words sell. They ranked as the probably most popular fashion choice, 88 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: and after a few fits and starts early in the game, 89 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 2: chance of quote sell the team caught on to the 90 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: fifth inning, and it echoed throughout the stadium throughout the 91 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: late innings. The bottom line, alas the Oakland, Alameda County 92 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: Coliseum is no more. Perhaps a bart Giamati had it right. 93 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: The games our design to break your heart. The fans 94 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: of Oakland.

I'm 137 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: so glad to have you back because you've been nostre 138 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: damas so far. And before I get to TUA, which 139 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: is an important subject because we're getting word today, he 140 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: definitely wants to come back and play, and I believe 141 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: you will week seven, So we'll get to that in 142 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 2: a second. You nailed the Aaron Rodgers thing. You cited 143 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: many examples of players who'd had achilles, even quarterbacks, so 144 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: we're forty that had Achilles. What I didn't know, Doug 145 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: is he would have this much mobility, et cetera. What 146 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,359 Speaker 2: are you seeing and can discontinue? 147 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 4: No, I see no reason why it will continue. You know, 148 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 4: he is, he is really really good and basically, you know, 149 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 4: based on what Dan Marino did was an achilles that 150 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 4: wasn't repaired on one leg, he still performed pretty good 151 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 4: for a year. So yeah, I think I think Rogers 152 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 4: is going to be fine is basically, you know, the 153 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 4: big thing is the offensive line for him. They gave him, 154 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 4: you know, enough time and he's gonna be He's going 155 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 4: to be fine. 156 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 2: You know, he's rolling right, he's scrambling. He seems like 157 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: he's got a little first up explosion. Turn the clock 158 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 2: back fifteen years. He's taken a few hits now, so 159 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: that's baked into the keg. What happens done now that 160 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 2: the surgery is completed, do the support muscle groups around 161 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 2: you start to get uh stronger and those muscles that 162 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 2: weren't firing start to fire again? What what's happening? 163 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 4: Well, that's happening. But remember too that you know, he 164 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 4: went through extensive rehabilitation and in fact, you know, although 165 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 4: I didn't agree, but he he was thinking he was 166 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 4: going to be ready last December, so he's had plenty 167 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 4: of time to get that thing. I doubt if he's 168 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 4: fealing much difference. You know, when you have a surgery, 169 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 4: once you're done with rehab and stuff, you'll still most 170 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 4: people will still feel changes for a while, and so 171 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 4: you know his body is probably still going through changes. 172 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 4: Let well, I'm guessing it's he's probably getting close to 173 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 4: where he doesn't really even think about it anymore. 174 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, with three games under his belt, So you nail 175 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 2: that one. So let's talk about too. Here's what we know. 176 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: He's telling people today that he feels great, he feels fine, 177 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: he feels normal, He very much wants to come back 178 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 2: and play, and he's seeing a neurologist this week. So 179 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: let's start there. What do you think two is in 180 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: his recovery two weeks later. 181 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 4: Well, we know that about eighty percent of the people 182 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 4: that when they get a concussion by after two weeks, 183 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 4: they know they are recovered, they feel pretty much normal. 184 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 4: So appently, that's that's what he's saying where he's at. 185 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 4: Luckily the team, you know that when the team put 186 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 4: him on the injury list, the NFL rules say you 187 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: can't come back for four weeks, and you know, those 188 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 4: extra couple of weeks are huge because even when you're asymptomatic, 189 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 4: the longer you wait before you come back and play, 190 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 4: that the lower the risk is of you know, the 191 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 4: second impact syndrome. And that's what we worry about with 192 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 4: him because that brain is you know, does become more 193 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 4: vulnerable once you take a good hit. So the fact 194 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 4: that he's not going to play till till week seven, 195 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 4: is you know, is somewhat protected having had said that, 196 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 4: you know, if you know the fact, the kid, you know, 197 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 4: right he is. You know, everyone's telling him, well, you 198 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 4: should probably retire. He's got all the money in the bank, 199 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 4: et cetera, but he wants to play. I would I 200 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 4: would make sure. I would never let him on the 201 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 4: field without a mouthpiece. And he doesn't know how to 202 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 4: talk without a mouthpiece. I'd put a mouth piece in 203 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 4: him right now and have him, you know what, I 204 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 4: want you talking all day long with a mouthpiece. I 205 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 4: don't want that thing out. I would make him wear 206 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 4: a queue collar, and I would make him wear a 207 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 4: Guardian cap, which the Guardian Cats are now legal member. 208 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 4: Last year they could only wear him, you know, in 209 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 4: the preseason and practice. And if you if your listeners 210 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 4: don't know what a guardian cap is, that's that thing 211 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 4: they put on top of the helmet, those giant padded 212 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 4: things on top of the helmet. That's a Guardian cap. 213 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 4: The queue caller is is a little compressive device that 214 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 4: goes around the back of the neck and comes up 215 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 4: almost to the not all the way around, but comes 216 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 4: up to the sides. And what that queue collar does 217 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 4: is that puts a light pressure on your on your 218 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 4: blood vessels, and that increases the pressure in the brain 219 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 4: because when we get a concussion, when we get hit, 220 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 4: it's what happens is that the brain, the outside of 221 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 4: the brain hits the inside of the skull back and forth. 222 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 4: That's that's what the what the damage has done. So 223 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 4: if that moves less like it's just like your little kid, 224 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 4: you're shaking a box at Christmas and something. 225 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 5: That's movement in there. 226 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 4: You know, if you wouldn't, you know, put more you know, 227 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 4: put more paper around there, more bubble wrap where you've 228 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 4: shaken it, you don't feel it banging. That's basically what 229 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 4: the queue caller is doing. And interesting, you know, they 230 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 4: and they got the queue collar. They figured that one 231 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 4: out from studying woodpeckers because of the tremendous damage the 232 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 4: workpeckers get. And they can how come these guys don't 233 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 4: get brain damage. And it turns out the workpicker has 234 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 4: a tongue that ends up going around its brain. Well 235 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 4: it's well, it's you know, well, it's take it on 236 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 4: the wood to protect it from from moving too much. 237 00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 2: You know what I think, I honestly, I think I 238 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 2: saw that in the movie Concussion with Will Smith. 239 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what, we may have I'm trying to 240 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 4: remember if that was in there or not. 241 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: Cool talking with Doug Anderson, prominent sports doctor chiropractor Bray California, 242 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: works with olympians, works with professional athletes. So let's talk 243 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,479 Speaker 2: about this que caller because you know, I've seen linebackers 244 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 2: wear them, but never a quarterback. Had he had a 245 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: Q caller on the night he suffered the injury a 246 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago, I wonder if he might have 247 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 2: foregone getting a concussion. 248 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 4: Your thoughts, uh, you know he My guess is he 249 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 4: probably still would have had a concussion, but the degree 250 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 4: of it may have been was probably going to be decreasing. 251 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 4: And that's the thing. None of the stuff can none 252 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 4: of the stuff can prevent a concussion. But what they 253 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 4: can do is they can reduce the reduced the sari 254 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 4: of the concussion. So if he if just now Thurn 255 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 4: was in property, if he had the queue caller, Anachy 256 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 4: had that big guardian cap, which is now legal. I 257 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 4: haven't seen many people wearing them, but you know that 258 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 4: guardian cap. If you hit your helmet hits a reg 259 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 4: their helmet, that's going to that's decreases the impact by 260 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 4: about ten percent. If two guardian helmets collide now it's 261 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 4: going to be about a twenty percent decrease in the impact. 262 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 4: Of course, when we're talking concussion and stuff too, there's 263 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 4: so many other variables as far as you know, are 264 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 4: you the striker or are you the person that's going 265 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 4: to get struck. The person that's going to get struck 266 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 4: usually is the one that incurs more damage. Also the direction, 267 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 4: the line of drive that is important, and also positioning. 268 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 4: You know, they've studied the positions and you know, we 269 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 4: know that wide receivers, TVs and quarterbacks tend to have 270 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 4: the highest risk. They tend to have the highest single 271 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 4: incident you know, trauma. But then on the other side, 272 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: the linemen have more repetitive micro traumas. And you know, 273 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 4: when you're talking serious things like CTE, you know, a 274 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 4: lot of the literature now is saying that it's it's 275 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 4: that that's the small mini traumas, the subconcussive traumas, the 276 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 4: ones that aren't concussion, but they add up over time. 277 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 4: Those also can can trigger the trigger damage. 278 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 2: So Doug, let's talk about this, because two of went 279 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 2: the entire season twenty twenty three without a concussion. He 280 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: worked with martial artists, learn how to fall, learn how 281 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: to avoid contact. Seem to have a mental apse in judgment. 282 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: Can he simply return to what he was doing before 283 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 2: and find a safe space, as Steve Young says, Uh, 284 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: you know. 285 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 4: We've seen it before. You know they can. I mean 286 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 4: when you go down the list of quarterbacks that have 287 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 4: had concussions, you know, quite a few of them had concussions, 288 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 4: and and you know many of them have come back 289 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 4: and done just fine, right, I mean Ty had what 290 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 4: ten concussions and had ten? 291 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? 292 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 4: Uh, the old Manning had four or five? Uh, you 293 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 4: know Rogers had had at least three. But again with 294 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 4: the long term damage. We're worried about, though, is you 295 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 4: have the big concussions, but then it's it's a little hits, 296 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 4: you know, the ones that add up. Like Brent Park says, 297 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 4: he goes, you know, when you have the ringing of 298 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 4: the ears, seeing stars, he goes, You know, that's a concussion, 299 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 4: he goes. And if that's a concussion, I've had hundreds 300 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 4: of them. 301 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: Well, that's I don't think he's wrong. All right. All 302 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: this is predicated on Tua being cleared. I bet a 303 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: finger he'll be cleared. What are your thoughts do you 304 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: see any scenario that Tua is not cleared to come back. 305 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 4: Well, the expression I got from from reading the release 306 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 4: today was that you know, he's saying he's feeling good, 307 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 4: so I'm assuming he's probably gone, you know through most 308 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 4: of the protocol, right, you know, you've got it. First 309 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 4: it's say, you know, you just limited activity, white activity. 310 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 4: Then it's going to be a roabic exercise. Then you're 311 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 4: going to start adding weights and you know, and football 312 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 4: specific exercise but without you know, any contact. Then you're 313 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: in football drills. And finally it's you know it's full 314 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 4: you know, full well full on scrimmaging, you know, uh, 315 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 4: you know, with contact. So those are those are the steps, 316 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 4: and you know, he seems to have been, you know, 317 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 4: from what we can tell from him, he seems that 318 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 4: he has recovered again. The good news for me is that, 319 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 4: you know, without the history, they'd probably be putting him 320 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 4: back this this upcoming week because I had some quarterbacks 321 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 4: you know, trouble without him. But that he's not gonna 322 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 4: be able to play until week seven, and to me, 323 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 4: that is even more protected. Having said that, though, boy, 324 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 4: if he gets another one this year, that's probably gonna 325 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 4: be season over and then they're really gonna be you know, 326 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 4: doing a palo on his on his uh, you know, 327 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 4: his career. 328 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 2: But are we in agreement that he will be cleared 329 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 2: and he will be back on the field this year? 330 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 4: Uh, I would be surprised if that's not the case. 331 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 4: I am pretty confident that we're gonna see him, see 332 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 4: him in. 333 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 2: Week seven because doctors are always cautious, and I know 334 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 2: Teddy Bruski always said, you know, all clear you, but 335 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: you're on your own. This is your decision. There's a 336 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 2: lot of disclaimers. Uh, what's a quick, you know, one 337 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: minute conversation. Sound like that when a doctor tells two 338 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 2: he's gonna clear him. 339 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 4: Well again, he's gonna he's gonna tell tour he's gonna 340 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 4: clear him because true has already gone through all the steps, Right, 341 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 4: He's gone through all the stages, you know, and and 342 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 4: including you know, the screens about just you know, his 343 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 4: cognitive function and that sort of thing. Right, I mean, 344 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 4: he's you know obviously if he if he's still a 345 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,719 Speaker 4: sensitive to light or noise, if he's still dizzy, if 346 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 4: he still has headaches, if he has brain vulger memory problems, 347 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 4: there's no way he's going to come back and play. 348 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 4: He's saying, all that stuff is already over and now 349 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 4: he's you know, and now he's going through the you know, 350 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 4: the protocol as far as getting himself back on the field. 351 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 4: So you know, it's all that is good. Then it's 352 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,239 Speaker 4: pretty hard for us to say, you know, don't do it, 353 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 4: but we will give him a warning because you know, 354 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 4: we now know that look at this stuff has serious 355 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 4: long term consequences, as we know from the movie Concussion, right. 356 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 4: And that's the thing is that when you start looking 357 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 4: at the statistics of NFL players who have donated their 358 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 4: brains to science, or a very high percentage of him, 359 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 4: you know, have chronic traumatic and stuff lost basically reading 360 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 4: brain damage. 361 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 2: So last thing for me, Scott, about a minute, sir. 362 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: I'm always blown away by the circle of life. You 363 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 2: nailed Rogers. I think you've probably nailed two as well. 364 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 2: And of course the circle of life to his collision 365 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 2: was with yep, tomorrow. Hamlin can't make this stuff up. 366 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 2: And Joe O three you talked about commocial cords. How's 367 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: Damar Hamlin? He looks like he's back playing. Is he safe? 368 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 4: I think he's gonna be fine. I already do. I 369 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 4: think he's gonna be fine. I think that was just 370 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 4: a freak one shot thing. Just you know what. We 371 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 4: see him in the hockey players too. They get a 372 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 4: punchetsh just right the right spot, and that just they 373 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 4: can get that as well. Right, So I think he's 374 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 4: gonna be fine. 375 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: Doug, great stuff. We're gonna definitely get you back on 376 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 2: after TWA makes his return, which you both believe you will, 377 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 2: God forbid he gets another concussion. We'd have you on 378 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: then as well. But I'll have you observe him and 379 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 2: his play and some of the suggestions you made with 380 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 2: the mouthpiece and the additional padding and the helmet, and 381 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: we'll see where this goes. Doug, very good, Britty, appreciate it. 382 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 2: You got a peal that is Doug Anderson. He's a 383 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 2: prominent sports doctor, chiropractor and Brea, California, a good friend 384 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 2: of mine, and he nailed the Tomorrow Hamlin thing that 385 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 2: have happened. And then right before Rogers stepped down the 386 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 2: field to make his return. He essentially predicted what has happened. 387 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 2: And Rogers looks like he's turned back the clock and 388 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 2: now here's Tua and we hope it's okay. And I 389 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,479 Speaker 2: know before the Dolphins play Week seven, I think they 390 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 2: have a buy in there. So I think we're looking 391 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 2: at like, I don't know, October twenty fifth, something like 392 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 2: that around then, But about a month we expect to 393 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: see two back on the field. Well, you know who 394 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: won't be on the field Saturday is UNLV takes on 395 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 2: Fresno State. He's a quarterback match Luca, who left the 396 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 2: team suddenly Tuesday because of an NIL dispute. We're going 397 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 2: to talk about that coming up, because the story has 398 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 2: many layers, and it's like throwing a pebble in a 399 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 2: pond and watching the ripples across this nation of NIL athletes. 400 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: And the fact that this is a wild wild West 401 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 2: system with no regulation. Is the UNLV thing. The first 402 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 2: to many like this, we'll talk about it.

I'm gonna give you 451 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 2: an analogy. Forget they say it's landscape. I'm gonna call 452 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 2: it a highway. Imagine the Nils a highway. There are 453 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 2: no traffic lines, there's no stop signs, lanemarkers, there's no guardrails, 454 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 2: there's no law enforcement. And that's what we have in 455 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 2: the NIL. As a result, there's virtually no oversight. There's 456 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 2: no accountability in the Nile space, and far too often 457 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 2: promises are made to student athletes that are broken UNLV 458 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 2: on their way to an epic season. They had a legitimate, 459 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: legitimate chance to make the college playoff. That's not hyperbole. 460 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 2: I was in Houston for their game Week one, when 461 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 2: they hammered Houston. I saw their quarterback, Matt's Luca. He 462 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: looked very good, tremendous field. General poor Man's rock Party 463 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 2: doesn't pass like Brockbirdy, but he was a great leader 464 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 2: and a superb runner, and he ran Barry Odom's offense 465 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: and won that job period. As a matter of fact, 466 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 2: I would say, look his seventy five yard drive with 467 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 2: a minute fifty to go against Kansas two we used 468 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 2: to go in Kansas was the stuff legends are made of. 469 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if the other quarterbacks in the roster 470 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 2: would have done that, But I digress. How the hell 471 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 2: does this happen? Where prior to week four? We all 472 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 2: know if he doesn't do it before week four, he's done. 473 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 2: He's a fifth year red shirt, one of the final 474 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 2: one of the final COVID babies as I call him. 475 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 2: So he can quit now and find another team next year. 476 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 2: But he has to do it before week four? So 477 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 2: how does this happen? 478 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:25,199 Speaker 9: All? 479 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 10: Right? 480 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: There's no short story, but I can tell it quick 481 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 2: see because it all started in January when Matt Sluca's 482 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 2: coach at Holy Cross, Bob Chesney was his name. He 483 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 2: left totally Cross for James Madison. Sluca was invited but 484 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 2: with no guarantees, so he connected with Brennan Marion, UNLV's 485 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 2: offensive coordinator, who allegedly told allegedly told Matt Luca that 486 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 2: quote getting one hundred grand Nile money wouldn't be a 487 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: problem Now two things. I get it. All the lawyer 488 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 2: geniuses on Twitter that don't know a damn thing said 489 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 2: why he's got to sign contract? Well, first of all, yes, 490 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 2: I get it, this was a verbal agreement. But if 491 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 2: you understand contract law, this met the standards of offer, 492 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 2: acceptance and consideration. Verbal contracts are very enforceable if the 493 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 2: elements align, and in retrospect, these appear to do just that. 494 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: And I am not applying it anyway. He's ever going 495 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 2: to take legal action against the school. I'm trying to 496 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 2: set their record straight. My keythitch when I hear people 497 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 2: try to talk about this. Furthermore, according to Max Luca's 498 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 2: agent advisor, Marcus Comarty, this agreement was made in January, 499 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 2: and according to Comarty, you can't even sign an NIL 500 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 2: agreement in writing without the student being enrolled at the school, 501 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,959 Speaker 2: which wasn't going to be for several more months. So 502 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 2: UNOV issued a statement in response on Wednesday, but it 503 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 2: was a bit vague and obtuse, and it really didn't 504 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 2: contend any language, specifically denying Sluke was offered one hundred 505 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. Now, honestly, how hard would it be to 506 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 2: just simply make the defindity of statement in succinct terms. 507 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 2: We never promised him one hundred thousand dollars, period, but 508 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 2: they didn't. Additionally, Brennan Marrion, the OC who allegedly told 509 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 2: him that gave him a hundred grand wouldn't be a problem, 510 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 2: couldn't be reached for comment, So for now he's not talking. 511 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 2: All I know is if I never told somebody I'd 512 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 2: give him a hundred grand and it made national news, 513 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 2: I would be talking a lot. Now. That's fast forward 514 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 2: to June of this past year, Sluca arrived on campus 515 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 2: and he was actually paid three thousand dollars and a 516 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 2: completely separate deal for a certain summer deal, which they 517 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 2: categorized as the Child Cancer Society. When you know, Sluca 518 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 2: enrolled at UNOV in June and his advisor Marcus Cormarti 519 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 2: openly explaining that money was only designated as a relocation fee. 520 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: The story got a little sideways because people thought that 521 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 2: the three thousand dollars deal was a was the deal 522 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 2: he agreed to and sad on the contract for for 523 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: four months note not true. But shortly thereafter that practice 524 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 2: starts and they're in camp and Marcus Cromarti, his advisor, 525 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 2: insisted he really started to follow up pretty vehemently on 526 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 2: the payment that he thought Sluca was promised, and the 527 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 2: response he got was that the offer wasn't legitimate since 528 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 2: it didn't come from head coach Barry otom Coromarty then 529 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:29,360 Speaker 2: said he tried to negotiate a negotiation ensued. They went 530 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 2: from ten grand a month to five grand a month, 531 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 2: only to be told that the best Unov could offer 532 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: would be three thousand dollars a month for four months. 533 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 2: There's another wrinkle here too. I'm told the local collective 534 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 2: here I believe their name is Blueprint Sports and Entertainment, 535 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 2: they said they couldn't talk to Comarty because he wasn't 536 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 2: licensed in the state of Nevada, which is true. So 537 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: team Sluca, team Comarti. They said, Hey, we're out of here. 538 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 2: We've been lyed to. That was their statement, and they're gone. 539 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: Matt Sluka has entered a transfer portal, and I'm told 540 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 2: he's already getting attention from a couple of power for schools, 541 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: and don't be surprised that if January rolls around, I'm 542 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 2: told he could get money in excess of one hundred 543 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 2: grand to do it to another school. So there's that 544 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 2: amateur psychology suggesting that Unov really never believed Luca would 545 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 2: Sluca would leave. They called his bluff, but he did. Well, 546 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 2: that's just a theory. Another theory is that the nil 547 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 2: collective here, the Blueprint Sports and Entertainment company, maybe they 548 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 2: don't have the money. They just simply don't have the money. Now, 549 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 2: this is the summation. Basically, it appears that in January 550 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, the OC at Unov ostensibly made a 551 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 2: verbal commitment he was not authorized to make. Then it 552 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 2: was outsourced to a third party, which is the anile collective. 553 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 2: In this case, they're called Blueprints Sports and Entertainment, who, 554 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: by the way, did vehemently deny knowing anything about disagreement. 555 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 2: Their third statement was much stronger. Sluca's moved on, and 556 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 2: I think he's drawing interest from Power four schools. I 557 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 2: believe he'll get more than one hundred grand next year. 558 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 2: So what are we going with this? Well, first of all, 559 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 2: you ANDV plays Saturday a little over twelve hours here 560 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 2: at Legion Stadium against Fresno State. First conference game. Should 561 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: be a doozy. They'll start a quarterback named Hodge Malik Williams, 562 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 2: who's a transfer from Campbell, will be his first start. 563 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 2: Sluca beat him out, and we'll see where they go. 564 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 2: We'll see where the season goes from here. There's already 565 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 2: narrative farming. I'm not going to waste my time with that. 566 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 2: But this is going to be a major topic for 567 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 2: a midnight hour and I can't wait to hear from 568 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 2: our callers at eight, seven, seven, nine, nine, six sixty 569 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 2: three six nine, eight, seven, seven, nine and nine on Fox. 570 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 2: Callers have been tremendous. Who do you believe? Who do 571 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 2: you believe? Do you believe Sluca's version and his dad 572 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 2: and the agent advisor Marcus Cromarty, or do you believe 573 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: the school's version. What's your reaction? What's your reaction on 574 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 2: the thoughts and the whole nil thing in the first place, 575 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 2: and how this is clearly a thorn becoming more of 576 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 2: a thorn in college football? And you know, do you 577 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 2: expect more of these events to happen? Or is this 578 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: just a new normal? This is it? Get over it? 579 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 2: So from where I sit here in Las Vegas, in 580 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 2: twenty minutes, it'll be twelve midnight, And from where you 581 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 2: sit perhaps it will also be twelve midnight literally or 582 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 2: maybe figuratively. But anyway you slice, at the midnight hour 583 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 2: is where you have the final word, kind of a metaphor. 584 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: So I want to get your thoughts. What was your 585 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 2: reaction when you heard at the quarterback three and zero start, 586 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 2: legitimate chance to get to the playoff. Very good football team, 587 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 2: very good. They've beaten two Big twelve teams on the 588 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 2: road already this year Houston and Kansas. And Kansas was 589 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 2: ranked fifteenth before the season started. And if they just 590 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 2: kept winning, yes, I think there's a high possibility, if 591 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 2: not a probability, you unov could have had a shot playoff. 592 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 2: The quarterback walked away from that over money, over what 593 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 2: he thought was a promise. Who do you believe? Whose 594 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 2: sade of you on? What are your thoughts? What are 595 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 2: your thoughts on? Nil? Want to hear it all? Coming up? 596 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 2: Will tell you the part B of what we'll be 597 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 2: talking about tonight in the midnight hour. Although I do 598 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 2: believe party is probably gonna take up most of the 599 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 2: air in the room. I'm Bertie Fraddle. We are coming 600 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 2: to your line from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio 601 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 2: Taract dot Com studios. Keep it locked.

Your calls eight seven, seven ninety nine on 607 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 2: Fox A seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine. 608 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 2: Definitely very much look forward to hearing your thoughts on 609 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 2: the situation at UNLV with a quarterback quit summarily in 610 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 2: an undefeated team because of an nil dispute. You heard 611 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 2: me lay it out for you. I want to hear 612 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 2: your side. Who you believe? You believe the quarterback? Do 613 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: you believe the school? What's your thoughts on nil? To 614 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 2: begin with? If you take it anywhere you want, caller 615 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,239 Speaker 2: has been great, all right. You heard my monologue at 616 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 2: the top of the show. The games you decided to 617 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 2: bring your heart. The bottom line is the oaklan As, 618 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 2: Jeff pass It tweeted out the baseball writer. Here's what 619 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: he said. The Oaklanas were killed by greed. Do not 620 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 2: allow the people responsible for this to spend it in 621 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 2: any other way. John Fisher did not have to move 622 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 2: this team. Major League Baseball and its owners did not 623 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,719 Speaker 2: need to be complicit in it. This was a choice, 624 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: a wrong one. History will sneer. I don't think I 625 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 2: can disagree with any any of that. The crazy thing 626 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 2: about what happened Thursday in Oakland was that the forty 627 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 2: seven thousand fans seem to find a way to try 628 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:15,240 Speaker 2: to enjoy one last hurrah, knowing the inevitability was about 629 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 2: to happen. Remember, this is a city that wave goodbye 630 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 2: to the Warriors, the Golden State Warriors. Yeah, they're still 631 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 2: in the Bay Area, but they left Oakland. The Raiders 632 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 2: left Oakland twice, came here. They've been here three or 633 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:34,280 Speaker 2: four years now. And now if everything goes according to Oyles, 634 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 2: well the oklan Azi play here, we'll see, we'll see. 635 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 2: There's just too many questions still, it's probably a seventy 636 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 2: five percent, but I don't know that it's one hundred 637 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 2: percenter piece on people I talked to. But let's not 638 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 2: focus on that. One of the more poignant backstories is, 639 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: you know, when you go to an event, you go 640 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:59,280 Speaker 2: to a Major League Baseball game, you go to any 641 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 2: kind of event, professional sports, college sports, even a concert, 642 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 2: there's merchandise that's sold, there are vendors. These people make 643 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 2: a living. And I'm told that before, during, and after 644 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,399 Speaker 2: the game, the Oakland fans literally cleaned out every bet 645 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 2: of merchandise that existed, including all the merchandise that's bootleg 646 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 2: merchandise that you often see selling up and down the 647 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 2: streets of stadiums after games. They even interviewed a couple 648 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 2: of these people. They were, you know, were emotional. They 649 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 2: were quite poignant. I mean their names. I don't think 650 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,439 Speaker 2: they mind me mentioning him. Ken Hopkins and Mike Faye. 651 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 2: They had to combine thirty eight years of spell experience 652 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 2: selling shirts outside baseball stadiums. They've been stationed right next 653 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 2: to each other by the south gate of the coliseum 654 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 2: near some taco vendors, and one of the shirts said 655 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 2: thanks for the memories. And there are images of Ricky 656 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 2: Henderson and Dennis Eckersley and Roley Fingers etc. In the 657 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 2: two typical A's kelly green, yellow, et cetera. Hopkins is 658 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 2: a gentleman. He said he lived in Oakland all his life. 659 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 2: He's been selling parking lot T shirts and hats for 660 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 2: fifteen years. But he also said he's been a fan 661 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 2: of the A's since he was six years old, and 662 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 2: he told the reporter how truly sad it was to 663 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 2: lose his home round team, hometown team. But then there 664 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 2: was a resignation in his voice. He knew it was coming. 665 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 2: He said, it is what it is. Will he travel 666 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 2: to Sacramento next year to do the same thing? No, quote, 667 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: I probably won't do no business in Sacramento because it's 668 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 2: my Oakland A's, just like they were my Oakland Raiders. 669 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 2: The other gentleman, fayhe he hasn't made the decision yet 670 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 2: as to whether or not he'll travel the A's games 671 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 2: to sell shirts. That's a ninety mile drive each way 672 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 2: to West Sacramento and it's not even a major league ballpark. However, 673 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 2: he says, I don't know if I'm gonna let them 674 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 2: get rid of me that easily. This guy's been selling 675 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 2: T shirts outside the stadium going back to twenty oh two, 676 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 2: even had a job inside the coliseum going back to 677 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 2: nineteen eight eight. So I want to hear from the 678 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 2: callers part B as well, what are your thoughts on 679 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 2: the Oakland A's leaving Again. I've always said the most 680 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 2: boring conversations are when everybody agrees. You may say, get 681 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 2: over it, suck it up, Buttercup, this is progress. You're 682 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 2: coming to Vegas. Or you may be more sentimental. You 683 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 2: might have your own thoughts. Whatever your thoughts, I want 684 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 2: to hear them. I don't dictate to people what to say. 685 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: But you saw what happened Thursday, and this has been 686 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 2: inevitable for a long time, you know, the last team 687 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 2: to leave their city in Major League Baseball and up 688 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 2: route with the Montreal Expos. So it's been a minute. 689 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 2: So first topic, well, the A's will be the second topic. 690 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 2: Feel free to weigh in on that as well. But 691 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 2: I'm thinking the topic that's probably going to you know, 692 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: certainly certainly take all the air out of the room, 693 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 2: and justifiably so as the smile thing. As we have 694 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 2: another full slate of college football.

My view on 734 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 11: it is remember when the NCAAA got two three years 735 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 11: ago and it went all the ways of Supreme Court 736 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,879 Speaker 11: and the highly polarized society we live in with six 737 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 11: conservative judges liberal judges. That case was unanimous against the NCAA, 738 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 11: that said what they were doing. 739 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,919 Speaker 2: Heyl to stop. Paul, I don't want commentary. It's going 740 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 2: back in the court. They're gonna have revenue sharing. I 741 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 2: want to know what your response was when you heard 742 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: the kid quit, and who do you believe hammered the school. 743 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 2: Of course, it's him. 744 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 11: It's it's That's what I was going to say. 745 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 12: These schools are businesses and these players are employees. If 746 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 12: the business does not meet the demand, meet the requirements 747 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 12: that were met in the conversations, Hey tough, Look, you 748 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:33,760 Speaker 12: got to pay with the kid what you promised. 749 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 2: It's how these schools operate. I'm an agreement. We're in 750 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,479 Speaker 2: an agreement on that, So you go ahead, Paul. 751 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 11: And then for the Oakland as, I think John Fisher 752 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 11: operated in bad faith. I don't think he ever had 753 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,800 Speaker 11: an intention to build that stadium. Twenty years and he 754 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 11: didn't get a deal done. 755 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,879 Speaker 4: I mean, the lowest payroll and what for how many 756 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 4: years going on? 757 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 11: However, what I have not heard was the city of 758 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 11: Oakland has lost three professional teams in three years. I mean, 759 00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 11: at some. 760 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 13: Point, where do weter we look to share them? 761 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 11: I think both I share the blames for that. 762 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 2: Appreciate your thoughts, Paul, Thank you, and don't be a stranger. 763 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 2: You're always welcome on my show, Mike.

The portal is merely 835 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 2: a way station for when a young man wants to 836 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,240 Speaker 2: transfer from one school to another. He enters the portal 837 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 2: so that other schools know he's available. Long gone or 838 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 2: the days of the red shirt rules where you can't 839 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 2: got to sit out a here, And so I hope 840 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:49,839 Speaker 2: I explained that ever so quickly.

What's your thoughts on this whole in ild 853 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 2: the thing? 854 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 17: Okay, then I think, man, I think the whole thing 855 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 17: is a sham. 856 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 15: You know, I know the old Bannon brothers. 857 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 10: Fought for it and all that. 858 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 17: Wow, I honestly think it's a sham. And I think 859 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 17: Reggie Bush is the biggest piece of crap on the 860 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:51,280 Speaker 17: faith of birth. I believe the guy, the kid. 861 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 2: You believe Matt Lucas, you believe his version. 862 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I believe the kids. 863 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 2: Okay, my thoughts on Oakland leaving. 864 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 17: Big fellow man, So we got a compown on what 865 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:03,280 Speaker 17: a couple of callers were saying. 866 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 10: Oakland is in a shambles, the city itself. I mean, look, 867 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:12,240 Speaker 10: I work in the docks, and years ago the docks 868 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 10: in Oakland were flourishing. Over the last ten years, save 869 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 10: dwindled to just barely anything. And it's because of the 870 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 10: infrastructure of the. 871 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 4: City, man. 872 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 17: And it's a shame because it's a great tay. It 873 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 17: was a great town now being overrun by a bunch 874 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,839 Speaker 17: of thugs and hoodlums. And it's just a shame, man. 875 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 10: I mean, I think we saw it when In and 876 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 10: Out closed the only freaking franchise it's ever closed. 877 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,280 Speaker 18: And it was in Oakland because of all. 878 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 17: Of the crafts. So I don't know, man, I know 879 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 17: Fisher wasn't on the huff and up exactly. He kind 880 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 17: of had that Seattle SuperSonics game plan. But you know what, 881 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 17: you can't blame him, man, because that place is like 882 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 17: by root, you know what I mean. 883 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 2: Man, weell, if we can just get you to get 884 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,439 Speaker 2: over the shiness, you're going to be just fine. Reading 885 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 2: between the things. But reading between the lines, you believe 886 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 2: they had no choice and at this point they just 887 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 2: can't sustain the major league franchise. Again, We're not always 888 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 2: going to agree, and I'm not saying I don't agree 889 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 2: with I'm just saying, you know, we're going to get 890 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 2: opinions from all over and I'm here for it.

I wasn't a names fan. 895 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 19: I'm seventy one years old. I remember when that was the. 896 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 18: Kansas City's Sure, I remember the Reggie Jackson ears, you know, 897 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:41,720 Speaker 18: and they had a storied franchise, a crazy owner, Charlie Finley, 898 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:47,399 Speaker 18: by the way. But after all these losses for that 899 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 18: poor town, it's like people give up on these places 900 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 18: that they I'm a white guy places there are twenty 901 00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:00,720 Speaker 18: two percent black like Oakland and have other or other 902 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,759 Speaker 18: problems related to the poverty and the misery. 903 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 2: So Van, Okay, let's pick.

I mean, at the end of 968 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 15: the day, his story sounds very plausible and to my understanding, 969 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 15: if he didn't leave now, he would have lost this 970 00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,879 Speaker 15: his final year of eligibility by playing one or two 971 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 15: more games. 972 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,760 Speaker 2: So yeah, one more game, if he'd have played Saturday, 973 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:22,399 Speaker 2: that would have been it. 974 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 15: Yeah, exactly. So I think he put him over barrel. 975 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 15: Sounded like a game of an opportunity, come right with 976 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 15: the money. 977 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 13: And they did not. 978 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 15: So even if he's not a pro talent, which I 979 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 15: don't think he is, you know, at the very least 980 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,360 Speaker 15: you can cash in for a half million or a 981 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,200 Speaker 15: million next year, and sadly that's what that's what the 982 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 15: NCAA football. 983 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 2: Has come to. Very true, all right, Any thoughts on 984 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 2: the Oakland is vacating. 985 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm not a huge you know, California guy, but 986 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,879 Speaker 15: I will tell you this, as with any business, if 987 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 15: you patronize the business, they're going to stay strong and 988 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 15: be there. And my understanding their attendance, I know the 989 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 15: Park is crappy and all that good stuff. But I 990 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 15: grew up with minor league baseball here in Orlando. It 991 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 15: at you know, historic ticker Field. 992 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know the Double A team there. 993 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 9: Yep. 994 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,760 Speaker 15: I've had the dad the Orlando Twins here for years. 995 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,279 Speaker 15: All the players that came up for the championships for 996 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,240 Speaker 15: them came through there. And that was a horrible, horrible 997 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 15: place to go watch a game. But if you love it, 998 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 15: you go to it. You you know, as your local 999 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 15: sandwich shop or whatever else. If it's great, you you 1000 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 15: go and you patronize. You give them your money and 1001 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,439 Speaker 15: they stay. If you don't, they leave. 1002 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 2: Great call Rob, solid, rock solid on both points. And 1003 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,280 Speaker 2: that's an element to this, no question, that's an element 1004 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 2: to this. Although the Okan fans would argue that, you know, 1005 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 2: the payroll and John Fisher didn't really try to put 1006 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 2: a winner on the field, et cetera, et cetera. I 1007 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 2: mean it's going back to moneyball, right so, but great stuff, Rob. 1008 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 2: Thank you. Brian in Minnesota. Lots of folks at Minnesota today, 1009 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 2: welcome in, Brian. 1010 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 5: Hey, how are you man? 1011 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 2: Good? 1012 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:59,280 Speaker 21: I tend to believe Sluta side. I mean, the truth 1013 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 21: is always to be in the middle. But as an 1014 00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,399 Speaker 21: athlete in the spotlight, you know, especially a quarterback leader 1015 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 21: of the team, he has to know that leaving is 1016 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 21: going to raise some eyebrows and some questions. And I 1017 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,680 Speaker 21: just really can't believe that he would do this lightly 1018 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 21: and like bring these questions with him into his next 1019 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 21: situation unless there were some real issues with the agreement 1020 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:21,760 Speaker 21: not being met. That's just kind of I just don't 1021 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 21: buy that he would just lightly do that. 1022 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm inclined to agree only because UNLV's statement was 1023 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 2: so tepid and they but but you know, we're never 1024 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 2: gonna know. This is just a great roundtable discussion. Brian, 1025 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 2: your thoughts on the oak leaving. 1026 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,919 Speaker 21: You know, it's really sad and I think it's gonna 1027 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,720 Speaker 21: be a big what if as to if Fisher had 1028 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,320 Speaker 21: sold the team, if the new owner could have gotten 1029 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 21: a stadium agreement done, because everyone's just saying sell the 1030 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,319 Speaker 21: team and it's going to be taken care of. But 1031 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 21: I don't think it's that cut and dry, given that 1032 00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 21: other teams also seem to be leaving in droves. I 1033 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,720 Speaker 21: think it's just really sad for the fans and a 1034 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 21: really big what if has if the situation could have 1035 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 21: been saved. 1036 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 2: Thanks Brian, appreciate you checking in tonight.

You kind of get the vibe. 1046 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,240 Speaker 2: It's not like they're welcoming with open arms like the 1047 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 2: Raiders were in the Golden Knights, where they kind of 1048 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 2: showed up uninvited, hat in hand. How do you think 1049 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 2: that rears exugly had here in the city. 1050 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,719 Speaker 22: Your thoughts Probably it'll have a little honeymoon period for 1051 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,239 Speaker 22: a little bit. But yeah, they figured it out that 1052 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:53,080 Speaker 22: the turist will come play. I'll come pay and play, 1053 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 22: you know, have a see some games and stay at 1054 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:58,919 Speaker 22: the hotels and gamble and money. It's all about money. 1055 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 2: Bernie r y I Ron Fernanda, thanks a lot. We'll 1056 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:07,239 Speaker 2: see they're going to raise the Tropicana.

Just because they do, that doesn't 1059 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:14,799 Speaker 2: mean one hundred percent the A's are coming. I still 1060 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:17,680 Speaker 2: think there's a lot of boxes to check. Jackson in Portland, 1061 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:18,399 Speaker 2: welcome in. 1062 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:24,320 Speaker 23: Well listen. I'm not super familiar with the nil situation 1063 00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,760 Speaker 23: with Sluka, but I'm definitely on his side in this situation. 1064 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 23: From what I read, it seems like he's definitely you know, 1065 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:34,200 Speaker 23: he was made some Paul's promises and he basically had 1066 00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 23: no choice. But when it comes to the Aids, you know, 1067 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 23: I went down to a game back in July against 1068 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 23: the Orioles, and even though I had nothing to do 1069 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 23: with the A's or anything, I've never been ages fan. 1070 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 23: The some of the friendliest people, friendliest stats. But the 1071 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 23: whole situation is sad, and you know, I live in Portland, 1072 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 23: so if the Blazers ever left, you know, Portland, I 1073 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 23: know that that would be just devastating. And at the 1074 00:55:57,680 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 23: end of the day, I feel like it was always 1075 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 23: money over p pull money for fans, and that's what 1076 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 23: they're going to get. So I don't know. 1077 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you're not wrong. You heard Yeah, thanks a lot, 1078 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 2: good stuff, Jackson. And you heard Jeff Passons quote Jim 1079 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 2: in Massachusetts. Well, well, sure you got some things to 1080 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 2: say about the nil situation here in Vegas with the quarterback, 1081 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 2: and then we'll get to the. 1082 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 24: A's there you go, Ernie, Uh, the kids, right, I 1083 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:24,840 Speaker 24: think I believe the kid. I mean, at the end 1084 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,800 Speaker 24: of the day, it's about you and your family and 1085 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,920 Speaker 24: you know what you want to take care of and 1086 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,799 Speaker 24: stuff like that, because all sports is it's just a 1087 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 24: meat factory. You know, if you're good, you stay. You know, 1088 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 24: an injury puts you out, you know, so you got 1089 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 24: to grab for the gusto. You gotta go with the money. 1090 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 9: I mean, this day and age, you know so. 1091 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:46,520 Speaker 2: Well, I don't believe what you're doing. So how do 1092 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 2: you feel about the A's. 1093 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,360 Speaker 24: You know what? The that city you know, ever since 1094 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 24: ever since the Raiders left, that city was going to 1095 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,439 Speaker 24: go downhill with all that's going on out there, and 1096 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 24: you know you can't go out after noon time out 1097 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:03,680 Speaker 24: of the streets. I mean, they're they're a product of 1098 00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 24: their own being, not not the age personally, but society 1099 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 24: out there. When they dropped the ball is when, uh, 1100 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:15,280 Speaker 24: they should have made that building, you know, for baseball 1101 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 24: and football and then have them piggybacker have him paid 1102 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 24: for half. That would have been the smart thing to do. 1103 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 2: You know. Well he still hasn't coming up with the 1104 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 2: money here for his end of the bargain in Vegas. 1105 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 2: I mean this is a weird one. Man. 1106 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,480 Speaker 24: Well, they shouldn't even you know, money talks everything else. 1107 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 24: They should have had something on the line before they 1108 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 24: started all this. 1109 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 2: Well they think they think they did. They think they 1110 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 2: buttoned it all up. But you know, when the rubber 1111 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 2: hits the road and life and folds and living color, 1112 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,880 Speaker 2: we see, we see.

We got three great sports fans, Mark Bree 1116 00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 2: and of course the chef Kevin Wired When after in 1117 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 2: a minute, coming up your thoughts David in Kansas, you're 1118 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:06,440 Speaker 2: up next.

I got three words, 1121 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:16,480 Speaker 16: free market capitalism. Let the market determine, keep the government 1122 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 16: out of it. Let things happen. If the kid has 1123 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:24,120 Speaker 16: talent and he's he's probably telling the truth, then that 1124 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 16: will survive. If you don't have talent, if you don't 1125 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 16: have a market, whether you're a person or a university, 1126 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 16: you're not going to survive. If you're a city and 1127 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,040 Speaker 16: you don't have a market, you're not gonna survive.

Let's just 1187 01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,440 Speaker 2: let's just focus on that, uh, because the d nil 1188 01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:36,840 Speaker 2: thing gets so convoluted. I know you're a sports fan. Uh, 1189 01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 2: look at this through the prism of the good people 1190 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 2: in Oakland. Just what are your thoughts on this whole deal? 1191 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 28: If I would live it in that town and my 1192 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,760 Speaker 28: team was about to leave, I would have so much, 1193 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:54,680 Speaker 28: you know, memories of the Reggie days and the days 1194 01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 28: of like you I want to call to, said Charlie 1195 01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 28: Finley putting together a team like so I'll name some 1196 01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 28: of the guys with the sal Bando and Roley Fingers 1197 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 28: as a pitcher. Just the history of those teams that 1198 01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 28: were so great, so dominating, they would just wipe out 1199 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:15,960 Speaker 28: the entire season because the teams are so good and 1200 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:19,720 Speaker 28: so time passes and things change. And for the town 1201 01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 28: of Oakland to have such a crappy baseball team, and 1202 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 28: from what I heard, never been there a crappy stadium 1203 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 28: that across the board everybody talks about is a dump. 1204 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:34,240 Speaker 7: So I've never been there. 1205 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:36,320 Speaker 28: I can't say I've been there, but I've heard so 1206 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 28: much about people who have been to the games and 1207 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:43,400 Speaker 28: have been following that that stadium is such a horrible 1208 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 28: place that the city, the mayor, and the politicians in 1209 01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:51,360 Speaker 28: that city when it comes to that stuff, couldn't find 1210 01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 28: a way to get it together and pull it together 1211 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,880 Speaker 28: to put a decent team on the field. 1212 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:00,480 Speaker 7: And it's such a horrible thing where. 1213 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 28: The fans have to deal with that after all these 1214 01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 28: years of great success and then just basically into the 1215 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 28: toilet and now their team is going to lose. 1216 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 2: And no, you're not, you're not, You're not wrong. I mean, 1217 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 2: it's a it's a highly charged situation. They didn't spend 1218 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 2: enough money on payil to put up you know, they 1219 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:22,400 Speaker 2: had competitive teams and listen, that stadium is old, it's dilapidated, 1220 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:25,080 Speaker 2: but man, it's it's still a vibe. It's it's there's 1221 01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 2: something about it when you look at all the history there. 1222 01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 2: And I guess at video montage they played history. The 1223 01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 2: Raiders and the Age won three straight championships and you 1224 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 2: had the Bash Brothers, et cetera. Breed the Oakland. A's 1225 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 2: leave h did they leave Oakland? What your what are 1226 01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 2: your thoughts? 1227 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 29: So we were talking about it a little bit earlier. 1228 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:46,160 Speaker 30: I actually went about two weeks ago, me and Monte 1229 01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 30: Bolognio is one of our anchors here. 1230 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 29: We did like a day trip. 1231 01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 30: And it was just it was it was like heartbreaking 1232 01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 30: for me to see because I obviously I'm from here 1233 01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 30: in southern California, so to actually go and see the 1234 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,720 Speaker 30: fans and and kind of see and know that, you know, 1235 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:05,600 Speaker 30: like the clock was ticking, it was It's just heartbreaking 1236 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:09,479 Speaker 30: because it's like the fans really are behind, like they're 1237 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 30: the ones, like the heart and soul of the team unfortunately, 1238 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 30: but it's all about it's just it's just really corrupt 1239 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:17,200 Speaker 30: and just really sad. So I'm heartbroken for the fans 1240 01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:21,120 Speaker 30: and I'm watching that yesterday was just really really sad. 1241 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 30: And I couldn't imagine being a fan of that team 1242 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 30: and just having them just like leave, Like I couldn't, like, 1243 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 30: I like there'd be no world where the Dodgers would 1244 01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 30: ever leave La, Like you know, it's not like Brooklyn, 1245 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,000 Speaker 30: you know, like so the Dodgers. 1246 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 29: Aren't going anywhere. 1247 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 30: But I couldn't even imagine, like that's that would be 1248 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 30: like disastrous and just devastating. 1249 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 2: Right, And and the folks in Oakland they've lost the 1250 01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:47,360 Speaker 2: Golden State Warriors. They moved across town. They're gone, and 1251 01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:49,440 Speaker 2: then you lost the Raiders, and now you lose the 1252 01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:53,680 Speaker 2: A's And it was on display Thursday with with the 1253 01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 2: emotional reactions. All right, chef, your thoughts. 1254 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, the main reason that the Oakland are moving, actually 1255 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 6: the only reason is John Fisher does not want to 1256 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,560 Speaker 6: be in Oakland anymore. He's a billionaire. I think it's 1257 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 6: the gap that he owns so he has the ability 1258 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:11,560 Speaker 6: to pay for whatever stadium he wants. And simply put, 1259 01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:14,439 Speaker 6: he just wasn't able to get free public money out 1260 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,760 Speaker 6: of the city of Oakland and was able to get 1261 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 6: it in Las Vegas. And that's why that's the only 1262 01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:22,600 Speaker 6: reason he's moving. There's no loyalty on his part, has 1263 01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 6: absolutely no regard for the fans at all, and it 1264 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 6: is a reminder that professional sports are big business. And 1265 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:32,640 Speaker 6: whatever they talk about community the fans, what's best for 1266 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 6: the fans and how we come together, that's all just 1267 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 6: lip service for them to make money. And that's something 1268 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 6: we need to that's something we need to remind ourselves. 1269 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,520 Speaker 6: I'm a big sports fan. The Dodgers, the Lakers, the Rams, 1270 01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:48,920 Speaker 6: the Kings of those are all my teams. But I 1271 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 6: also understand that they're not out there for me as 1272 01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 6: a person. They're there to make money. These are big businesses, 1273 01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 6: and I choose to participate as a customer in consuming that. 1274 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:03,360 Speaker 6: And if there's someone in Oakland right now, what reason 1275 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 6: do you have to continue following Major League Baseball because 1276 01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 6: you were told that your loyalty you're spending on the 1277 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 6: team over the years does not matter? 1278 01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 2: Right right? Got it good? I agree with everything you 1279 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 2: said there, Chef. Let's go back out to the phones, Mike, 1280 01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,640 Speaker 2: and Houston joins us.

Yeah, I do feel bad. 1284 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:31,520 Speaker 5: I have not been to Oakland, Yosh, some thirty years. 1285 01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 5: But I'm a baseball historian on the amateur level. Of course, 1286 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:38,720 Speaker 5: I can remember the Brawlin as you know the history. 1287 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:43,320 Speaker 5: You know, the seventies teams and the namorate with Reggy Jackson, 1288 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:48,640 Speaker 5: Joe Joe Rudy and Bert Champonaires. And I'm liking you. 1289 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 5: I don't know what Oakland, if they'll ever have a 1290 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:53,640 Speaker 5: chance to get to baseball, but to remember, but Adam 1291 01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:56,920 Speaker 5: ripped the hall out of the city when he took 1292 01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 5: the oilers out. 1293 01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:00,240 Speaker 2: I mean, you're right with to Tennessee, right right? 1294 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 5: What's Tennessee? 1295 01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:06,040 Speaker 4: Tennessee we used in fans. We understand that the t 1296 01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:07,600 Speaker 4: belongs to them now. 1297 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 5: But the memories walked us. I love you Blue Days, 1298 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:15,680 Speaker 5: you know the running shoot of warn Moon and got it. 1299 01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:16,720 Speaker 5: It's heartbreaking to me. 1300 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 2: The bottom line is a you did Mike, thanks a 1301 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:22,080 Speaker 2: lot for calling.

It is heartbreaking, 1304 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:32,520 Speaker 2: and it's an impossible situation because it's a business and 1305 01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,479 Speaker 2: the businessman claimed they tried to keep the team there. 1306 01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:39,000 Speaker 2: The fans didn't show up, but the stadium is not great, 1307 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:41,760 Speaker 2: the team wasn't competitive.

Before I get to 1325 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:35,400 Speaker 2: the caller from Kansas City, a couple tweets from Fred Nebraska. First, 1326 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 2: he says, Matt Sluca or any quarterback is not going 1327 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,280 Speaker 2: to pull up stakes to move across the country for nothing. 1328 01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 2: So I believe Sluca. I'm also a bit surprised you 1329 01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:45,280 Speaker 2: and if you could not come up with one hundred 1330 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:48,800 Speaker 2: k after they're three and oh now, and he's no kid. 1331 01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:51,479 Speaker 2: I think by the time they got to three and oh, 1332 01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 2: the ship had sailed. It got a little rough on 1333 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:57,720 Speaker 2: Monday from what I understand. But they've been trying to 1334 01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 2: you know, the agent Marcus CROMARTI been trying to negotiate 1335 01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:04,040 Speaker 2: since since July to make this happen. And it was 1336 01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 2: kind of a he said, he said deal so and 1337 01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:09,800 Speaker 2: then Fred Putsbernie, if the Fisher didn't put any money 1338 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 2: into the team in Oakland, what makes anyone think he's 1339 01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 2: going to put any money into the team in Las Vegas. 1340 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,439 Speaker 2: He's not going to change. I don't know that You're wrong, Fred, 1341 01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 2: and I believe it's if I had a nickel for 1342 01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:22,360 Speaker 2: every time that conversation has come up here in Las Vegas. 1343 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:25,000 Speaker 2: Elon must be more in my lawn. Let's go back 1344 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:28,639 Speaker 2: out to the lawn. The phone lines cut in Kansas City. 1345 01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:30,360 Speaker 2: Welcome in cut. 1346 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 9: Hey, Hey, good morning man. I gotta say something. And 1347 01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:37,200 Speaker 9: I know it's not going to be the most popular 1348 01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:41,800 Speaker 9: thing on earth, but I was born in nineteen sixty nine. 1349 01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 20: I have a whole lot. 1350 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,559 Speaker 9: Of people here in Kansas City, in Missouri that I remember, 1351 01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,040 Speaker 9: old timers. I grew up right down the street from 1352 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:53,479 Speaker 9: Fatto Page and right around the corner from one of 1353 01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 9: the greatest scouts in the history of major leagues, and 1354 01:09:58,320 --> 01:09:59,840 Speaker 9: the Negro leagues muckle. 1355 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:08,240 Speaker 2: Yes, he's a great guy, hilarious man, and he told 1356 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 2: some stories. 1357 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 9: I will tell you that. But let me tell you 1358 01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:15,720 Speaker 9: something us here in Kansas City and me, especially as 1359 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:17,559 Speaker 9: a kid, I heard a lot of the old timers 1360 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 9: talk about how much it hurts when the Kansas City 1361 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 9: A's a team that bought us Fighter Blue and the 1362 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:31,839 Speaker 9: last I think it was draft, we actually got Reggie 1363 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:34,360 Speaker 9: Jackson while they were still here. But yet they were 1364 01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 9: moving out of Kansas City, while the city council and 1365 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 9: everyone here was basically begging Charles o'finley to keep the 1366 01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:44,919 Speaker 9: team here, and they said they would build a stadium 1367 01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:48,040 Speaker 9: because they were still playing at old Morning Stadum behind 1368 01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 9: my old high school, Lincoln High School here in Kansas 1369 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 9: City of eighteenth Street, and he was just like, can't 1370 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 9: nobody tell me I gotta stay here. He defied the 1371 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:02,680 Speaker 9: Major League Baseball commissioners, he defied everybody and said, I 1372 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:05,679 Speaker 9: will move to California where there will be greater times 1373 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 9: and there will be greater ways. And he was still 1374 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:13,839 Speaker 9: the same, the same cheapo that he was here. And 1375 01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 9: everything went wrong. So I have to say that one 1376 01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:22,000 Speaker 9: of the oldest trains in the history of life came 1377 01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:25,000 Speaker 9: back to them. It might have took fifty seven years, 1378 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:28,519 Speaker 9: but if they'll do it richer, they will eventually do 1379 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:35,599 Speaker 9: it to you. And Oakland unfortunately, Oakland, Unfortunately, they now 1380 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 9: are dealing with This is what happens when you deal 1381 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 9: with a snake. And that organization started out. When it 1382 01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:49,240 Speaker 9: left there, it left somebody scorn, It left somebody upset, 1383 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:53,120 Speaker 9: and it left somebody hurt. And now you think you're special. 1384 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:58,160 Speaker 9: That's not the way life works. And I'm for the fans, 1385 01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:02,320 Speaker 9: the younger generations of people like myself. Like I said, 1386 01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:05,120 Speaker 9: I was born in sixty nine. That happened a few 1387 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:08,840 Speaker 9: years before me. But it might have took fifty seven 1388 01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:11,439 Speaker 9: years for the chickens to come home to roofs, but 1389 01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:18,880 Speaker 9: they did. And now yep, I. 1390 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 2: I appreciate you. Cut good stuff. Man, don't be a stranger. 1391 01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 9: Thank you. 1392 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 2: We do this every Friday night at midnight, at midnight hour. 1393 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 2: You know, you know, I don't care when anybody was born. 1394 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:31,320 Speaker 2: People can pick up a book. I mean you have 1395 01:12:31,360 --> 01:12:33,320 Speaker 2: to pick up a book. It's easy to log onto 1396 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:38,559 Speaker 2: the internet and research stuff and you can learn and listen. 1397 01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 2: This is nothing new. All right. Interestingly enough, I was 1398 01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:46,160 Speaker 2: going to mention this to Cut during his call. Before 1399 01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:52,400 Speaker 2: the Athletics were in Kansas City, Hell, they were in Philadelphia. 1400 01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 2: So they started their professional franchise. It was born in Philadelphia, 1401 01:12:57,680 --> 01:13:01,920 Speaker 2: then moved to Kansas City, then moved to Oakland. And 1402 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:05,479 Speaker 2: now we think they're coming to Vegas. When I bet 1403 01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 2: a finger, they're gonna end up here. No, I know 1404 01:13:07,439 --> 01:13:10,559 Speaker 2: a lot of let's just put it this way. Don't 1405 01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 2: tell me, show me. But how about the Rams. The 1406 01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 2: Rams weren't born in Los Angeles. They were born in Cleveland. 1407 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:22,559 Speaker 2: They moved to Cleveland from they moved from Cleveland to 1408 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:25,640 Speaker 2: Los Angeles. They were the first major expansion team. And 1409 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:29,560 Speaker 2: let's not forget the Rams left, well, they left the Coliseum, 1410 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:34,280 Speaker 2: and then they moved to Anaheim Stadium, and then in 1411 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:37,080 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety five they bolted there and went to Saint Louis. 1412 01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:41,400 Speaker 2: And now they're back in Los Angeles, and hell, I 1413 01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:43,320 Speaker 2: don't even know how much the city. I still think 1414 01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:45,679 Speaker 2: their fourth or fifth place in line behind the Dodgers 1415 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:51,080 Speaker 2: and Lakers and USC and UCLA and who knows, you know, Look, 1416 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:55,080 Speaker 2: Hank Aaron seven hundred and fifty five home runs, with 1417 01:13:56,600 --> 01:14:01,120 Speaker 2: the Atlanta Braves. Well, the Braves originally left Austin to 1418 01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 2: go to Milwaukee, left Milwaukee to go to Atlanta. The 1419 01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:09,720 Speaker 2: Brooklyn Dodgers, they've never forgiven. They have never forgiven the 1420 01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 2: Dodgers for leaving to go to the West Coast in 1421 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:14,920 Speaker 2: nineteen fifty eight because they had already lost the Giants 1422 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:18,360 Speaker 2: and then lose the Dodgers. The Lakers, they weren't even 1423 01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 2: born in Los Angeles. They were born in Minnesota. We 1424 01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:26,480 Speaker 2: talk about the Golden State Warriors. They were born in Philadelphia. 1425 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:31,920 Speaker 2: Moved to San Francisco in nineteen sixty two. At one 1426 01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:36,280 Speaker 2: time there was a team in Saint Louis that was 1427 01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 2: an NBA team, the Saint Louis Hawks. Well, they moved 1428 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:43,680 Speaker 2: from Milwaukee to Saint Louis in the fifties, and then 1429 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:45,640 Speaker 2: they moved from Saint Louis. I don't even I think 1430 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:49,519 Speaker 2: they moved to Atlanta. Right. How about the Washington Senators 1431 01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,880 Speaker 2: in nineteen seventy two, they went away, They went to 1432 01:14:52,920 --> 01:14:58,040 Speaker 2: become the Texas Rangers. The NBA once had a team 1433 01:14:58,080 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 2: in Cincinnati, the Cincinnati Royals with the gre Oscar Robertson. 1434 01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:05,839 Speaker 2: They were in that market. Fifteen years major professional sports 1435 01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:08,200 Speaker 2: kind of just get I mean, you had the Reds there. 1436 01:15:08,240 --> 01:15:11,280 Speaker 2: Of course they end up moving to I think it 1437 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 2: was they became the Kansas City Omaha Kings for a 1438 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 2: bit of time, and then they moved to Sacramento. How 1439 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:24,759 Speaker 2: about San Diego. I believe that the Buffalo Braves before 1440 01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 2: the Clippers and Kawhi Leonard, long before the Clippers were 1441 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:32,280 Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Clippers, they were the San Diego Clippers. 1442 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 2: And before they were the San Diego Clippers, they were 1443 01:15:34,520 --> 01:15:39,640 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Braves. This has been going on forever. The 1444 01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:44,120 Speaker 2: Utah Jazz, they weren't originally from Utah. Yeah, they may 1445 01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,720 Speaker 2: be in Salt Lake City now, but they started out 1446 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 2: in New Orleans with the great Pete Merrivich. Now we've 1447 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:55,600 Speaker 2: come full circle. Let's go back to the Oakland Raiders. 1448 01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 2: It all started in nineteen eighty two. This is one 1449 01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:01,439 Speaker 2: of the more infamous departures in sports history because Al 1450 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 2: Davis moved the Raiders without the NFL's approval, said hell 1451 01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:08,440 Speaker 2: with you, guys, I don't need your approval. He bolts 1452 01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 2: from Oakland, goes to Los Angeles. And here's what's interesting 1453 01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:15,640 Speaker 2: about that, because Al wanted a stadium. So for the 1454 01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:18,880 Speaker 2: folks who remember they never got their stadium, well Al 1455 01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 2: wanted one. What was that forty four years ago? And 1456 01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:25,320 Speaker 2: so by eighty two he said, I'm out of here. 1457 01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:29,960 Speaker 2: The Raiders had just won Super Bowl fifteen I think 1458 01:16:29,960 --> 01:16:33,679 Speaker 2: it was, beating the Philadelphia Eagles twenty seven to ten leads. 1459 01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:36,920 Speaker 2: The next year ends up in a notorious court battle 1460 01:16:36,920 --> 01:16:40,240 Speaker 2: al Davis won. It was very awkward because then two 1461 01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:43,559 Speaker 2: years later the LA Raiders beat the Redskins in Super 1462 01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:48,320 Speaker 2: Bowl eighteen. I think it was Pete Roselle, the very 1463 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:50,200 Speaker 2: guy had beat it in court, had to hand Al 1464 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:53,639 Speaker 2: Davis the Lombardi Trophy. Right, folks who remember the great 1465 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 2: Colorado Avalanche teams, well they're still there. Well you know 1466 01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:02,559 Speaker 2: Jersey Colorado. They're joined at the hip. And who can 1467 01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 2: forget the Baltimore Colts leaving by the cover of darkness 1468 01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:08,479 Speaker 2: in the middle of the night with a bunch of 1469 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:14,200 Speaker 2: moving vans going from Baltimore to Indianapolis. So look, I'm 1470 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:18,000 Speaker 2: not justifying any of this. I am not listen. We're 1471 01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:21,600 Speaker 2: just doing sports talk radio here. Sometimes I'm an encyclopedia 1472 01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 2: of useless information. I pay attention to things once it 1473 01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:26,920 Speaker 2: gets into my mind. I learn it, I know it, 1474 01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:30,120 Speaker 2: I remember it. I never forget anything. Mike Ross from 1475 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:34,360 Speaker 2: suits just the way I roll. So look what I 1476 01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:37,200 Speaker 2: will remember are the somber faces. Are the good people 1477 01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:40,160 Speaker 2: in Oakland watching that game on TV, having been to 1478 01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 2: that stadium. I know it's far from perfect, but what 1479 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,519 Speaker 2: a vibe and the memories. And that's the thing. When 1480 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:47,559 Speaker 2: you go to Wrigley Field, you can say, wow, Babe 1481 01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:49,519 Speaker 2: Ruth stood in that box and if you got a 1482 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 2: pulse and a heartbeat as a sports fan, that's going 1483 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:54,679 Speaker 2: to mean something to you.

I guess I should say that too. 1514 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:37,360 Speaker 30: So I'm gonna go the twenty eleven classic. Aaron Sorkin 1515 01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:41,120 Speaker 30: obviously wrote this screenplay.

I just felt like 1520 01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:56,280 Speaker 30: he was incredible playing Billy Bean. 1521 01:19:57,439 --> 01:19:58,920 Speaker 2: I thought he pulled it off. I mean, I know 1522 01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:02,679 Speaker 2: the script was written written for him, but that's how 1523 01:20:02,800 --> 01:20:03,880 Speaker 2: baseball talk sounds. 1524 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:05,839 Speaker 30: Yeah, yeah, And so that was kind of the beginning 1525 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,600 Speaker 30: of just looking at metrics and analytics I think in baseball. 1526 01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:11,880 Speaker 29: So that was my first one, and then I went 1527 01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:13,880 Speaker 29: with and So that's about saving money. 1528 01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:17,040 Speaker 30: Then I went Ocean's eleven with Stealing Money, the two 1529 01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:19,920 Speaker 30: thousand and one classic with George Clooney and Brad Pitt. 1530 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:22,600 Speaker 30: I feel like that's a movie that everybody can like 1531 01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:24,960 Speaker 30: watch over and over again. It's always on TV, and 1532 01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:27,920 Speaker 30: I probably have memorized like eighty percent of that. 1533 01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:30,520 Speaker 29: Of that dialogue. 1534 01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:33,679 Speaker 30: And then the third movie I went was a little 1535 01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:37,679 Speaker 30: bit random, and it was a nineteen ninety four movie 1536 01:20:37,680 --> 01:20:42,080 Speaker 30: with Nicholas Cage and Bridget Fonda.

Rosy 1554 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:40,160 Speaker 30: Perez is in it too. She kind of provides that 1555 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:44,280 Speaker 30: like a comedic relief.

And now this's throw it over to Kevin. 1610 01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:43,559 Speaker 6: Yeah, so two of mine are gonna be the same 1611 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:47,919 Speaker 6: as Breeze because I had to mix Baseball money Moneyball 1612 01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:51,280 Speaker 6: absolutely fan It's one of my favorite baseball movies because 1613 01:24:51,880 --> 01:24:55,599 Speaker 6: of one how well Brad Pitt didn't up portraying Billy 1614 01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 6: Bean too getting into the analytics, which when that movie 1615 01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:00,840 Speaker 6: came out, a lot of pe people still didn't really 1616 01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:02,840 Speaker 6: understand or get a full grasp of. And I thought 1617 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:05,520 Speaker 6: they did a great job of kind of explaining exactly 1618 01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:09,960 Speaker 6: the concept behind using analytics to build baseball team. So 1619 01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:12,719 Speaker 6: I really like that and it really gave a good perspective. 1620 01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:14,800 Speaker 6: Although my only gripe with that movie is that they 1621 01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:18,040 Speaker 6: did not mention Barry Zito, Mark Mulder and Tim Hudson 1622 01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:22,000 Speaker 6: having an outstanding year that year, enabling that Moneyball concept 1623 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,679 Speaker 6: to work at least on the offensive side of things. 1624 01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:28,600 Speaker 6: And the second movie, Ocean's Eleven, just because I like 1625 01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 6: watching that. To give myself to Losions a grandeur before 1626 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 6: walking into a casino almost never works out, but it 1627 01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,200 Speaker 6: does fire me up before I do make a trip 1628 01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:38,639 Speaker 6: out there, and staying with the casino theme and making 1629 01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:44,120 Speaker 6: money casino with Robert de Niro. Sharon Stone was in it, 1630 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:45,920 Speaker 6: and it was just about you know, how you keep 1631 01:25:45,960 --> 01:25:48,720 Speaker 6: the customers coming, how you keep that money flowing for 1632 01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:52,679 Speaker 6: all activities that you might want to participate in, using 1633 01:25:52,720 --> 01:25:55,280 Speaker 6: the teamsters money to help build your casinos, skimming it 1634 01:25:55,720 --> 01:26:00,519 Speaker 6: the cashier's cage to Fundrome, Fundrome lifestyle. It was a 1635 01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,479 Speaker 6: great movie and like how Joe Peshe at the end 1636 01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:06,920 Speaker 6: suffered a fate that he had imposed on so many people. 1637 01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:10,240 Speaker 6: So those are my three Casino, Ocean's eleven in Moneyball, 1638 01:26:11,560 --> 01:26:11,960 Speaker 6: all right. 1639 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:14,839 Speaker 2: So before I dive into my three ever so quickly, 1640 01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:18,719 Speaker 2: a couple thoughts on Moneyball, because I had actually read 1641 01:26:18,720 --> 01:26:22,240 Speaker 2: the book and I really loved that movie and the 1642 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:25,479 Speaker 2: writing was superb. And the reason I know that is 1643 01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:28,160 Speaker 2: because I know, damn well Brad Pitten never played baseball, 1644 01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:30,479 Speaker 2: and I sure as hell know Jonah and by no 1645 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:32,519 Speaker 2: one's mentioning Jonah Hill, I thought he was tremendous. He 1646 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:36,840 Speaker 2: plays a guy named Peter brand You got it. Yeah good. 1647 01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:37,800 Speaker 26: I'm a Dodger fan. 1648 01:26:37,880 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 2: I stole by Thunder, but I'm glad you did. And 1649 01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:42,479 Speaker 2: I'm okay with that because I'll tell you why. I 1650 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:46,320 Speaker 2: think Paul Podesta very much was bothered because he looks 1651 01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:48,240 Speaker 2: nothing like Jonah Hill. But that's his story for. 1652 01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:50,720 Speaker 26: A different Adrian Deltreel. I'll never forgive him for that. 1653 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:55,519 Speaker 2: And then Philip Seymour Hoffman, you know, God rest his 1654 01:26:55,600 --> 01:27:00,000 Speaker 2: soul as the manager. I mean, the conversations that took 1655 01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:06,840 Speaker 2: place really sounded like real conversations. The writing was phenomenal, 1656 01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:09,759 Speaker 2: and so Brad Pitt. They all pulled it off. Brad 1657 01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:14,839 Speaker 2: Pitt and of course Jonah Hill and in Philip Seymour 1658 01:27:14,840 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 2: Hoffman top credit. But the writing was superb. It just 1659 01:27:19,560 --> 01:27:21,519 Speaker 2: it clicked on so many levels for me. One of 1660 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:23,960 Speaker 2: my very favorite movies of all time. All Right, So 1661 01:27:24,080 --> 01:27:26,760 Speaker 2: my three for the money. I got to start with 1662 01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:30,880 Speaker 2: Wall Street, and all three of my movies have a theme. 1663 01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:36,160 Speaker 2: They have exquisite, incredible casts with really epic actors. At 1664 01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 2: Wall Street, Charlie Sheen and of course Michael Douglas, Greed 1665 01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:43,000 Speaker 2: is good, Gordon Gecko a great movie name. Charlie Sheen 1666 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 2: plays Bud Fox, this young up and coming and of 1667 01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:47,599 Speaker 2: course his dad, Martin Sheen is also when the movie, 1668 01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:50,960 Speaker 2: plays his dad in the movie, and it really talks 1669 01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:54,280 Speaker 2: about how bad some people want success, but at what cost? 1670 01:27:54,520 --> 01:27:56,840 Speaker 2: So I thought, well, I mean, wal Wall Street is 1671 01:27:57,040 --> 01:27:59,960 Speaker 2: purely about money. The second one a little more lighthearted. 1672 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:03,519 Speaker 2: I bet it holds up today. Trading Places with dan Aykroyd, 1673 01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 2: Eddie Murphy, Billy Ray, Valentine Capricorn. Right, I mean, great movie, 1674 01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:12,800 Speaker 2: funny movie, you know, feeling good, Billy Ray looking good, Lewis, 1675 01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:15,400 Speaker 2: you know, I mean, just really good, funny movie. But 1676 01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:18,280 Speaker 2: it also tells a story that sometimes if people had 1677 01:28:18,360 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 2: opportunity they might not have had, what might they do 1678 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:24,200 Speaker 2: with it? And we'll have a roundtable around. I'm sure 1679 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,559 Speaker 2: you guys know about trading places. You have to the 1680 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,760 Speaker 2: other one. This one's a little obscure, but I got 1681 01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:31,840 Speaker 2: to tell you it has in fact become an absolute 1682 01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 2: cult classic over the years. It came out in nineteen 1683 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:39,160 Speaker 2: ninety two. The movie is called Glen Garry Glenn Ross 1684 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:44,040 Speaker 2: again a tremendous I would call it a you know, 1685 01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:46,120 Speaker 2: an ensemble. 1686 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:49,000 Speaker 7: Cast, great writing too, Like you said. 1687 01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 2: Well, it's set a record. They used the F bomb 1688 01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:53,679 Speaker 2: one hundred and forty four times in the movie. 1689 01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 26: Sounds like my kind of movie one hundred and forty 1690 01:28:55,880 --> 01:28:56,479 Speaker 26: four times. 1691 01:28:56,520 --> 01:29:00,000 Speaker 2: And I remember walking out of the movie. Well later 1692 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:03,599 Speaker 2: is muttering the war has lost its effectiveness, not least 1693 01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:06,680 Speaker 2: it so much. Anyway. You start out with Alec ball 1694 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:08,920 Speaker 2: when I don't like but that opening speech when he 1695 01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:11,800 Speaker 2: pulls up at the BMW and double parks with the rain. 1696 01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:13,840 Speaker 2: You know, you get a set of state guns, but 1697 01:29:13,880 --> 01:29:17,479 Speaker 2: you've got al Pacino, Jack Lemon, Alec ball Ed, Harris 1698 01:29:17,520 --> 01:29:21,240 Speaker 2: alan Ark, and Kevin Spacey. And it's about these real 1699 01:29:21,400 --> 01:29:26,759 Speaker 2: estate salesman in New York and the pressure's on because 1700 01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:29,240 Speaker 2: all but two are going to lose their job at 1701 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:30,719 Speaker 2: the end of the week. And they all got personal 1702 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:33,519 Speaker 2: stories where they really need the money. And it's like 1703 01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:36,360 Speaker 2: whoa everybody's ever worked for a company that they think 1704 01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:37,720 Speaker 2: is going on a business. You get their little pit 1705 01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:40,160 Speaker 2: in your stomach, whatever the case may be. And so 1706 01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:43,280 Speaker 2: what it does is, you know, one guy's trying to 1707 01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:46,320 Speaker 2: get better leads and the other you know. And one 1708 01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 2: thing I should note about the movie. It was Screenplayers 1709 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:52,960 Speaker 2: by David mammontt And if you know anything about David Mammont, 1710 01:29:53,360 --> 01:29:59,000 Speaker 2: David has nothing but a phenomenal background of work, really 1711 01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:03,599 Speaker 2: intense tremi this movies The Untouchables, The Spanish Prisoner, Wagged 1712 01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:08,160 Speaker 2: the Dog, The Verdict, really heavy duty movies that make 1713 01:30:08,200 --> 01:30:12,320 Speaker 2: you think. So those are my three Wall Street Trading 1714 01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 2: Places with Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy and then Glengarry 1715 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 2: Glenn Ross. 1716 01:30:16,400 --> 01:30:17,280 Speaker 26: Greed is good. 1717 01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:19,160 Speaker 2: That's Gordon Gecko. 1718 01:30:21,160 --> 01:30:23,840 Speaker 26: Not that I believe that, but iconic line. 1719 01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:25,559 Speaker 2: It was a movie I will a lot of people 1720 01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:28,799 Speaker 2: do believe that. Yeah, I mean again the famous speech 1721 01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:32,120 Speaker 2: that that Michael Douglas has Gordon Gecko makes when he leaves. 1722 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:34,360 Speaker 2: These are movies that have stood the test of time, 1723 01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:38,040 Speaker 2: I believe because of partly because of the actors, but 1724 01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 2: then the characters they created, the storylines. But then of 1725 01:30:41,120 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 2: course quotes from the movie. 1726 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,840 Speaker 30: I loved Trading Places. I was gonna say, I thought 1727 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:49,160 Speaker 30: that was a great one. I love, I love, I 1728 01:30:49,200 --> 01:30:51,719 Speaker 30: just love Eddie Murphy in that time just was awesome 1729 01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:53,439 Speaker 30: around that. 1730 01:30:53,439 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 2: That was really really the pinnacle of his career. You know. 1731 01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:58,360 Speaker 2: He had a bunch of comedies starting with that, you know, 1732 01:30:58,400 --> 01:31:01,760 Speaker 2: Beverly Hills Cop and such any final thoughts by the crew, and. 1733 01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:04,599 Speaker 30: Then going back to Mark's movies. So I actually love 1734 01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:07,000 Speaker 30: this sting. My dad and I watched that probably about 1735 01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:09,240 Speaker 30: like ten years ago for the first time, so I 1736 01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:11,559 Speaker 30: think I've watched it at least like two or three times. 1737 01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:14,320 Speaker 29: Love that movie.

Fox Sports 1850 01:36:48,760 --> 01:36:52,280 Speaker 2: Radio got a very interesting tweet from a gentleman named 1851 01:36:52,320 --> 01:36:55,800 Speaker 2: Donald E. McLoud said, love the show tonight. Interesting side 1852 01:36:55,880 --> 01:37:00,320 Speaker 2: note check this out. I was the gorilla on the 1853 01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:04,600 Speaker 2: train in trading places. Also the gorilla from the American 1854 01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:10,120 Speaker 2: tourist or luggage ats. WHOA. Now that's something that is 1855 01:37:10,240 --> 01:37:12,800 Speaker 2: saying something I don't know. I guess unless you if 1856 01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:14,679 Speaker 2: you're trying to get working movies, you end up getting 1857 01:37:14,760 --> 01:37:16,760 Speaker 2: tight catches at gorilla. Maybe that's not a good thing, 1858 01:37:16,800 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 2: But I remember those. I remember both those things. So 1859 01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:22,280 Speaker 2: something I always appreciate when people take them time to 1860 01:37:22,280 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 2: tweet and listen to the show, give us her thoughts. 1861 01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:27,120 Speaker 2: Someone mentioned a couple of weeks ago about taking calls 1862 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,320 Speaker 2: during the midnight or check that during the movie. Said, 1863 01:37:30,439 --> 01:37:33,240 Speaker 2: I don't want to do that, but everybody's free to 1864 01:37:33,400 --> 01:37:36,000 Speaker 2: weigh in on Twitter. You had a movie or a 1865 01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:38,720 Speaker 2: thought or the subject matter or remember this, you guys 1866 01:37:38,800 --> 01:37:42,160 Speaker 2: left that one out. That stuff's all good, all right? 1867 01:37:42,200 --> 01:37:45,519 Speaker 2: In just a few hours, here a very full slate 1868 01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:49,120 Speaker 2: of college football. There are three games I'm most interested in. 1869 01:37:50,439 --> 01:37:53,160 Speaker 2: I mean, we'll start with the obvious one, Georgia Alabama. 1870 01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:55,080 Speaker 2: It's the biggest game of the twenty twenty four season. 1871 01:37:55,760 --> 01:37:58,640 Speaker 2: You got an SEC show down between these two knuncleheads. 1872 01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:02,559 Speaker 2: Interestingly enough, the first time they've played in a regular 1873 01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:06,760 Speaker 2: season game since twenty twenty because they're usually playing for 1874 01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:09,360 Speaker 2: the SEC championship. They even play for the national championship 1875 01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:12,960 Speaker 2: one season. It'll be Kaitlin Debora's first test in Alabama. Boy, 1876 01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:16,200 Speaker 2: I know there's high hopes Saban own Georgia. We'll see 1877 01:38:16,240 --> 01:38:18,760 Speaker 2: if Kaitlyn de bor can do it. The second game, 1878 01:38:18,880 --> 01:38:22,479 Speaker 2: obviously that I'm most interested is in Las Vegas. I 1879 01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:24,680 Speaker 2: want to see what happens if UNLV can keep the 1880 01:38:24,760 --> 01:38:27,040 Speaker 2: magic going. Fresno State has been a thorn in their side. 1881 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:29,760 Speaker 2: They've beaten him six times in a row. You know, 1882 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:32,280 Speaker 2: you found itself as the center of attention in college 1883 01:38:32,280 --> 01:38:35,879 Speaker 2: football this week because they're starting quarterback Matthew Sluca announced 1884 01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:37,160 Speaker 2: he will sit out in red shirt the rest of 1885 01:38:37,160 --> 01:38:39,560 Speaker 2: the season and then they'll ender the transfer portal, and 1886 01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:42,800 Speaker 2: that stirred up plenty of controversy and fallout. Obviously, the 1887 01:38:42,960 --> 01:38:46,360 Speaker 2: nil deals will now become part of a national conversation, 1888 01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:49,120 Speaker 2: and people wonder is it's going to happen more. I 1889 01:38:49,200 --> 01:38:52,639 Speaker 2: don't know, but UNLV he's going to have to block 1890 01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:54,479 Speaker 2: out the noise. They got a you know, their new 1891 01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:58,679 Speaker 2: starting quarterback, Hodge Malik Williams, who transferred in from Campbell 1892 01:39:00,520 --> 01:39:05,360 Speaker 2: and he lost the job to Matts Luca and Fresno 1893 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:07,640 Speaker 2: State's no slots man. They went into Michigan played them 1894 01:39:07,680 --> 01:39:10,280 Speaker 2: head up. Except for that pick six, that thirty to 1895 01:39:10,400 --> 01:39:12,080 Speaker 2: ten score really felt more like a twenty three to 1896 01:39:12,120 --> 01:39:14,439 Speaker 2: seventeen score. Fresno State was on the on the goal line. 1897 01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:18,000 Speaker 2: But there should be drama. There's already been drama off 1898 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:19,720 Speaker 2: the field this week for UNOV. There should be plenty 1899 01:39:19,720 --> 01:39:22,160 Speaker 2: of drama on the field. Speak of a drama. You 1900 01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:24,400 Speaker 2: can't tell me you can take your eyes off Colorado. 1901 01:39:24,720 --> 01:39:28,879 Speaker 2: They traveled to UCF, and you saw how that Colorado 1902 01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:34,280 Speaker 2: game ended last week and the double Hail Mary. He 1903 01:39:34,360 --> 01:39:37,080 Speaker 2: looked there three and one. Two years ago, they'd won 1904 01:39:37,160 --> 01:39:39,559 Speaker 2: one game, the worst team in college football. Last year 1905 01:39:39,600 --> 01:39:43,080 Speaker 2: they won four and I didn't. I still think they're 1906 01:39:43,120 --> 01:39:46,000 Speaker 2: gonna win five or six. But that's just me. UCF 1907 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:49,120 Speaker 2: is going to be a tough, tough draw. That's gonna 1908 01:39:49,120 --> 01:39:52,799 Speaker 2: be a tough put for them. They're UCS favored by fourteen. 1909 01:39:53,240 --> 01:39:55,559 Speaker 2: They can run the ball like crazy, and Colorado cannot 1910 01:39:55,640 --> 01:39:58,599 Speaker 2: stop the run. I can see no way Colorado wins 1911 01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:00,240 Speaker 2: that game. But I'm not laying the point. I'm not 1912 01:40:00,320 --> 01:40:04,040 Speaker 2: taking the points.

But 1975 01:43:10,960 --> 01:43:13,679 Speaker 2: first we go to Chris Perffet's World of Soccer. 1976 01:43:15,120 --> 01:43:25,679 Speaker 31: The Greatest Goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drama. 1977 01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:33,639 Speaker 1: Aim, It's all here in this report from the World 1978 01:43:33,760 --> 01:43:35,360 Speaker 1: of Soccer, Ernie. 1979 01:43:35,360 --> 01:43:38,800 Speaker 32: Before we get going, congratulations to the Detroit Tigers, ten 1980 01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:41,800 Speaker 32: years in the making to return to the Major League 1981 01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:44,960 Speaker 32: Baseball Playoffs. It's been a long time for the Tigers, 1982 01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:47,320 Speaker 32: a team I know you and I both dearly care 1983 01:43:47,360 --> 01:43:50,479 Speaker 32: about part of the rich fabric of Detroit sports, and 1984 01:43:50,800 --> 01:43:53,200 Speaker 32: I've covered it for a very long time, usually on 1985 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:55,840 Speaker 32: the case of the Detroit Lions, but I would also 1986 01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:58,360 Speaker 32: be remiss if I wouldn't help take this time to 1987 01:43:58,439 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 32: also point out another bound team, which is Detroit City 1988 01:44:02,800 --> 01:44:06,759 Speaker 32: FC in the city itself. Detroit City is a squad 1989 01:44:06,840 --> 01:44:09,000 Speaker 32: that has meant a lot to me. Yes, they don't 1990 01:44:09,000 --> 01:44:11,479 Speaker 32: play in the MLS, they don't play at the top 1991 01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:14,800 Speaker 32: level what we have considered the top level of American soccer, 1992 01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:18,880 Speaker 32: but they have worked themselves up to the USL Championship, 1993 01:44:19,000 --> 01:44:23,599 Speaker 32: the top level outside of MLS. In the USL's kind 1994 01:44:23,600 --> 01:44:28,400 Speaker 32: of counter pyramid system that it's had more grassroots grown 1995 01:44:28,640 --> 01:44:33,280 Speaker 32: for clubs rather than owners who pay half a billion 1996 01:44:33,360 --> 01:44:35,680 Speaker 32: dollars for the rights to own a club as is 1997 01:44:35,720 --> 01:44:38,879 Speaker 32: the MLS model. And Detroit City came up from basically 1998 01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:43,080 Speaker 32: nothing from local businessmen in the metro Detroit area in 1999 01:44:43,280 --> 01:44:48,080 Speaker 32: down setting up a club in downtown Detroit back when 2000 01:44:48,439 --> 01:44:52,360 Speaker 32: they were just playing in the NPSL, which was semi professional. 2001 01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:55,200 Speaker 32: They were getting guys who had just been mostly with 2002 01:44:55,280 --> 01:44:58,519 Speaker 32: experience playing college and couldn't kick it on professional clubs 2003 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:03,360 Speaker 32: anywhere else. And with time, sweat, energy, and a lot 2004 01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:07,080 Speaker 32: a lot of fan support, Detroit City grew up to 2005 01:45:07,320 --> 01:45:12,280 Speaker 32: the USL Championship a few years ago, almost from nothing, 2006 01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:15,400 Speaker 32: and that is the magic of soccer when it is grassroots, 2007 01:45:15,439 --> 01:45:17,720 Speaker 32: and it is something that I think when we talk 2008 01:45:17,840 --> 01:45:20,040 Speaker 32: so much about the top level, which we wont to 2009 01:45:20,120 --> 01:45:22,679 Speaker 32: do here, even on the world of soccer, we sometimes 2010 01:45:22,800 --> 01:45:25,880 Speaker 32: miss that soccer is ultimately a game of the people, 2011 01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:28,960 Speaker 32: by the people for the people, and supporters are a 2012 01:45:29,080 --> 01:45:29,840 Speaker 32: huge part of that. 2013 01:45:30,360 --> 01:45:30,880 Speaker 1: You look at the. 2014 01:45:30,880 --> 01:45:33,959 Speaker 32: Lower levels of English soccer, you look at the USL 2015 01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:38,160 Speaker 32: of American soccer, you will find smaller towns, cities who 2016 01:45:38,200 --> 01:45:40,519 Speaker 32: have been passed over for MLS plenty of times, as 2017 01:45:40,600 --> 01:45:43,599 Speaker 32: Detroit has. There's been plenty of attempts by Dan Gilbert 2018 01:45:43,640 --> 01:45:47,000 Speaker 32: and Tom Gores to bring a MLS team to Detroit 2019 01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:49,280 Speaker 32: and they've been rebuffed. And a lot of that is 2020 01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:53,320 Speaker 32: because well, Detroit has a team, Detroit City, which has 2021 01:45:53,439 --> 01:45:56,880 Speaker 32: always been very strong. They are probably bound for the 2022 01:45:57,240 --> 01:46:00,400 Speaker 32: USL Championship playoffs, not hard to do. They're currently sitting 2023 01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:04,040 Speaker 32: forth going into this weekend and the top eight clubs 2024 01:46:04,479 --> 01:46:07,599 Speaker 32: in USL Championship all get to go. But just another 2025 01:46:07,680 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 32: facet of the city of champions that Detroit aspires to 2026 01:46:12,520 --> 01:46:17,640 Speaker 32: once again become with the Detroit Tigers and the Lions potentially, 2027 01:46:17,840 --> 01:46:20,840 Speaker 32: and of course hoping to see a turnaround for the 2028 01:46:20,880 --> 01:46:23,000 Speaker 32: Detroit Red Wings the Pistons. 2029 01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:23,320 Speaker 26: Not so much. 2030 01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:28,320 Speaker 32: And now from there to Spain, let's talk about the 2031 01:46:28,439 --> 01:46:32,960 Speaker 32: first real test coming up here for Real Madrid. I know, 2032 01:46:33,040 --> 01:46:35,360 Speaker 32: I'm not talking about a Classico this early. I'm talking 2033 01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:39,360 Speaker 32: about their other derby against Atletico lad let it Coo 2034 01:46:39,439 --> 01:46:42,800 Speaker 32: and Real Madrid. We'll face off here on Sunday. And 2035 01:46:42,920 --> 01:46:45,479 Speaker 32: it's been something of an interesting start to the season 2036 01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:47,800 Speaker 32: for Real Madrid, who we kept talking about before the 2037 01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:50,719 Speaker 32: season that they were rich and they were simply getting richer, 2038 01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:55,479 Speaker 32: bringing in Killian Embappe the French phenom, and overhauling the 2039 01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:59,640 Speaker 32: roster with so many young talents all around them that 2040 01:46:59,680 --> 01:47:03,400 Speaker 32: they had been percolating for so long. And I think 2041 01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:05,720 Speaker 32: the onus at that time was on the case of 2042 01:47:05,800 --> 01:47:10,680 Speaker 32: their longtime rival Barcelona to prove that they could not 2043 01:47:11,160 --> 01:47:15,360 Speaker 32: could be the real ones to compete and hold serve 2044 01:47:15,400 --> 01:47:19,519 Speaker 32: against what Real Madrid is doing. However, seven games in 2045 01:47:20,040 --> 01:47:24,000 Speaker 32: to the La Liga series, that's not really been the case. 2046 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:27,640 Speaker 32: There's been two draws for Real Madrid, whereas Barcelona is 2047 01:47:27,840 --> 01:47:31,519 Speaker 32: undefeated and on a win streak seven straight wins, giving 2048 01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:35,439 Speaker 32: them an early four point lead over Real Madrid. And 2049 01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:38,400 Speaker 32: in La Liga between these two clubs, well we know 2050 01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:42,720 Speaker 32: that year and year after time after time, those kind 2051 01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:46,360 Speaker 32: of small point differences are usually what damn one of 2052 01:47:46,400 --> 01:47:47,840 Speaker 32: the clubs over another. 2053 01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:50,479 Speaker 1: At Letiko is not to be overlooked either. 2054 01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:53,760 Speaker 32: At Lettiko is at fifteen points coming into this competition 2055 01:47:53,880 --> 01:47:56,280 Speaker 32: as well, right on the heels of Real Madrid. 2056 01:47:56,560 --> 01:47:59,519 Speaker 1: But the story is with Real Madrid. This is a 2057 01:47:59,600 --> 01:48:01,400 Speaker 1: club that has really struggled. 2058 01:48:01,040 --> 01:48:04,200 Speaker 32: To get Killian and Bape going right now, and unfortunately 2059 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:07,880 Speaker 32: the Frenchman was injured in the last match against Alaves 2060 01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:11,519 Speaker 32: on Tuesday night. He kind of gestured to the bench 2061 01:48:11,640 --> 01:48:14,280 Speaker 32: for a change, came out and it was announced that 2062 01:48:14,360 --> 01:48:18,000 Speaker 32: he was injured. So they're already down a phenom to hear. 2063 01:48:18,520 --> 01:48:22,120 Speaker 32: So Real Madrid will look to Jude Bellingham perhaps Connor 2064 01:48:22,240 --> 01:48:25,360 Speaker 32: Gallagher to really get going, and the team really needs 2065 01:48:25,400 --> 01:48:28,400 Speaker 32: a shot in the arm to really start to show 2066 01:48:28,520 --> 01:48:32,040 Speaker 32: that they are dominant. And again Atletico is no pushover. 2067 01:48:32,200 --> 01:48:34,559 Speaker 32: This is a team that just about thirty games ago 2068 01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:37,720 Speaker 32: knocked Real Madrid out of the Copa del Rey and 2069 01:48:37,800 --> 01:48:40,040 Speaker 32: as we know, Spanish Darby's are not to be taken 2070 01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:44,400 Speaker 32: lightly at all. Meanwhile, it's time for someone to maybe 2071 01:48:44,680 --> 01:48:48,640 Speaker 32: stop Christian Pulisic. It's been some time in the wilderness 2072 01:48:48,760 --> 01:48:53,280 Speaker 32: for Captain America, the man who has been long waited 2073 01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:57,320 Speaker 32: to show why he is as dominant as American fans 2074 01:48:57,680 --> 01:49:00,879 Speaker 32: believe he is, and he hasn't really brought that Sometimes 2075 01:49:01,400 --> 01:49:05,160 Speaker 32: in Europe, however, with ac Milan, he has shown that 2076 01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:09,559 Speaker 32: he seems to be coming about just fine. As on Friday, 2077 01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:13,799 Speaker 32: Milan took a three noo win over Lesse and Christian 2078 01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:16,080 Speaker 32: pulis has scored in that game, and that is the 2079 01:49:16,160 --> 01:49:18,960 Speaker 32: first time in his career he has scored in five 2080 01:49:19,160 --> 01:49:23,080 Speaker 32: straight matches. Yes, it seems that Milan has been able 2081 01:49:23,120 --> 01:49:25,560 Speaker 32: to figure out what Chelsea and English sides have not, 2082 01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:28,800 Speaker 32: how to put Pulisitic out there, how to get him 2083 01:49:28,800 --> 01:49:32,599 Speaker 32: in a position to make the plays and scores. They 2084 01:49:32,720 --> 01:49:37,639 Speaker 32: scored three goals in five minutes before the half, getting 2085 01:49:37,760 --> 01:49:41,520 Speaker 32: off to a flying start, and Milan needs the firepower, 2086 01:49:41,680 --> 01:49:46,639 Speaker 32: especially in a very competitive start to the Italian Seria. 2087 01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:50,240 Speaker 32: It's early season. It's hard to take any results from 2088 01:49:50,640 --> 01:49:52,960 Speaker 32: what the table looks like right now. I don't believe 2089 01:49:53,040 --> 01:49:56,000 Speaker 32: to Reno will remain undefeated, certainly, nor do I think 2090 01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:58,880 Speaker 32: they'll remain at the top of the table. And when 2091 01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:01,240 Speaker 32: the shakeup is all said and Milan will be there 2092 01:50:01,320 --> 01:50:06,960 Speaker 32: as will there very heated rivals with Internazional monopoly is 2093 01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:09,519 Speaker 32: showing that they're sticking around and this could be the 2094 01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:13,280 Speaker 32: year that we finally see Uventus return to prominence now 2095 01:50:13,320 --> 01:50:16,439 Speaker 32: that a lot of their points deductions are finally passed 2096 01:50:16,600 --> 01:50:19,560 Speaker 32: in the rear view window, and we'll see if Lazio, 2097 01:50:19,840 --> 01:50:21,479 Speaker 32: who has really been trying to put it together in 2098 01:50:21,520 --> 01:50:24,080 Speaker 32: the past two years, can really finally do just that 2099 01:50:24,439 --> 01:50:28,040 Speaker 32: and try to actually make a break for the studetto. 2100 01:50:28,240 --> 01:50:30,759 Speaker 32: But for now, a lot to be seen in Milan, 2101 01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:34,640 Speaker 32: still the cream of the crop and with Christian Pulisic 2102 01:50:35,040 --> 01:50:35,880 Speaker 32: leading the charge. 2103 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:38,040 Speaker 1: That's it for this week, Bernie.

We got Medina Magic, major 2142 01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:49,760 Speaker 2: trade in the NBA on Friday. We've got to talk 2143 01:52:49,800 --> 01:52:53,840 Speaker 2: about that Saturday night, of course, and as well as 2144 01:52:53,880 --> 01:52:56,080 Speaker 2: all the usual hijinks, there's a lot of trends in 2145 01:52:56,160 --> 01:52:58,680 Speaker 2: the NFL. You know, you've really got to be on 2146 01:52:58,760 --> 01:53:02,800 Speaker 2: your p's and q's. NFL underdogs of more than five 2147 01:53:02,840 --> 01:53:05,280 Speaker 2: and a half points are ridiculous. Fourteen and two against 2148 01:53:05,280 --> 01:53:08,559 Speaker 2: the number this season so far. People like to bet, 2149 01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:10,800 Speaker 2: everybody likes to talk about it on our shows. And 2150 01:53:10,920 --> 01:53:13,759 Speaker 2: by the way, you may not have noticed the NFL 2151 01:53:13,920 --> 01:53:18,320 Speaker 2: is experiencing something and hasn't for twenty years. There's less passing. 2152 01:53:19,160 --> 01:53:22,120 Speaker 2: For years, it was just nothing but a pass happy league, 2153 01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:25,080 Speaker 2: and before that had been ground and pounds. So now 2154 01:53:25,800 --> 01:53:28,760 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, now you're going back thirty years 2155 01:53:28,840 --> 01:53:31,479 Speaker 2: in terms of how teams run the ball. After the 2156 01:53:31,560 --> 01:53:35,000 Speaker 2: first two weeks, three weeks, what we've witnessed the fewest 2157 01:53:35,080 --> 01:53:39,840 Speaker 2: touchdown passes since twenty oh six. You know, designed run 2158 01:53:39,880 --> 01:53:42,200 Speaker 2: plays versus past you know, we'll talk about the changing 2159 01:53:42,320 --> 01:53:44,439 Speaker 2: landscape of the NFL. So we've got all that coming 2160 01:53:44,520 --> 01:53:50,640 Speaker 2: up Saturday night, eleven pm being Pacific. There's even more 2161 01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:55,799 Speaker 2: proof of the Caitlin Clark effect. This is not worth debating. 2162 01:53:56,560 --> 01:53:59,200 Speaker 2: The Caitlin Clark effect is real. It has been real, 2163 01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:02,240 Speaker 2: and it is real on the WNBA. Whether some people 2164 01:54:02,439 --> 01:54:06,160 Speaker 2: like it or not, it's real. ESPN announced that last 2165 01:54:06,200 --> 01:54:09,639 Speaker 2: Sunday's game won between the Indy n Fever again Caitlin Clark, 2166 01:54:10,040 --> 01:54:12,120 Speaker 2: that team was nowhere near the playoffs. The year before 2167 01:54:12,240 --> 01:54:14,479 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark joined the team, they make the playoffs. I 2168 01:54:14,520 --> 01:54:18,400 Speaker 2: think that's a coincidence. They played the Connecticut Sun in Connecticut. 2169 01:54:19,560 --> 01:54:23,120 Speaker 2: The attendance the game was shown on ABC right in 2170 01:54:23,200 --> 01:54:26,479 Speaker 2: the middle of the NBA NFL Sunday competing against the 2171 01:54:26,520 --> 01:54:29,960 Speaker 2: NFL games had to head averaged one point eight million 2172 01:54:30,040 --> 01:54:34,200 Speaker 2: viewers tipped off at three thirty Eastern time on Sunday. 2173 01:54:35,080 --> 01:54:39,760 Speaker 2: It made it the league's most watch playoff game in 2174 01:54:39,880 --> 01:54:43,880 Speaker 2: twenty four years. That was the finals contest in the 2175 01:54:44,120 --> 01:54:48,960 Speaker 2: WNBA and the most watched playoff game on ESPN platforms. Ever, 2176 01:54:50,680 --> 01:54:54,640 Speaker 2: despite simultaneously with the NFL's Week three games, you're going 2177 01:54:54,720 --> 01:54:56,840 Speaker 2: up against the full NFL s late, you still draw 2178 01:54:57,840 --> 01:55:02,600 Speaker 2: one point eight million viewers. Now that number actually more 2179 01:55:02,640 --> 01:55:08,120 Speaker 2: than doubles the average viewership that you have for WNBA playoffs, 2180 01:55:08,120 --> 01:55:12,080 Speaker 2: which is right around seven und twenty thousand. And that 2181 01:55:12,200 --> 01:55:16,400 Speaker 2: average viewership was during the finals last year, the twenty 2182 01:55:16,480 --> 01:55:20,080 Speaker 2: twenty three WNBA Finals, as the Las Vegas Aces were 2183 01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:27,360 Speaker 2: in the midst of repeating right so well, the Fever 2184 01:55:27,520 --> 01:55:31,720 Speaker 2: Sun contest hit a playoff viewership record. Well, they weren't 2185 01:55:31,760 --> 01:55:34,600 Speaker 2: the only They weren't the only playoff game in the WNBA. 2186 01:55:34,720 --> 01:55:38,240 Speaker 2: There were three other games on that day on ESPN 2187 01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:43,360 Speaker 2: and they all averaged around four hundred thousand viewers. By 2188 01:55:43,400 --> 01:55:46,560 Speaker 2: the way, those games were down from the average four 2189 01:55:46,640 --> 01:55:50,040 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty thousand during the playoffs in twenty twenty three, 2190 01:55:50,720 --> 01:55:53,400 Speaker 2: because again you're going up against the NFL. In those 2191 01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:56,520 Speaker 2: games didn't have Caitlin Clark. The game that had Caitlin 2192 01:55:56,600 --> 01:56:01,120 Speaker 2: Clark one point eight million games, it didn't have Caitlin 2193 01:56:01,160 --> 01:56:04,480 Speaker 2: Clark four hundred thousand. And the Caitlin Clark game more 2194 01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:06,960 Speaker 2: than doubles what was going on in the finals in 2195 01:56:07,040 --> 01:56:10,040 Speaker 2: the WNBA for twenty twenty three when they jumped up 2196 01:56:10,040 --> 01:56:13,120 Speaker 2: to about seven hundred and twenty thousand, and we're not 2197 01:56:13,200 --> 01:56:16,560 Speaker 2: talking about slotch teams. The one PM contest between the 2198 01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:18,600 Speaker 2: Atlanta Dream and the New York Liberty drew about four 2199 01:56:18,680 --> 01:56:21,600 Speaker 2: hundred and ten thousand viewers. And I got to believe 2200 01:56:21,640 --> 01:56:24,000 Speaker 2: the Liberty is their hell bent on repeating. They'll call 2201 01:56:24,040 --> 01:56:27,200 Speaker 2: it the Unfinished Business Store. They open up Sunday against 2202 01:56:27,200 --> 01:56:30,040 Speaker 2: the Las Vegas Aces, who are going for a three peat. 2203 01:56:30,080 --> 01:56:33,600 Speaker 2: The game will be in New York, and well, I'll 2204 01:56:33,640 --> 01:56:37,040 Speaker 2: be curious to see what that game draws compared to 2205 01:56:37,160 --> 01:56:40,840 Speaker 2: the Caitlin Clark game one point eight million. By the way, 2206 01:56:40,880 --> 01:56:43,280 Speaker 2: the Phoenix Mercury and Minnesota links to other very good 2207 01:56:43,320 --> 01:56:46,480 Speaker 2: teams averaged about four hundred and three thousand viewers. And 2208 01:56:46,600 --> 01:56:49,840 Speaker 2: then the nightcap, which was played Sunday night here in 2209 01:56:49,960 --> 01:56:53,840 Speaker 2: Las Vegas, the Aces against the Seattle Storm drew about 2210 01:56:53,840 --> 01:56:57,480 Speaker 2: four hundred and sixty one thousand viewers. Still dramatically, it's 2211 01:56:57,560 --> 01:57:01,480 Speaker 2: twenty five percent of what the game Caitlin Clark was drawing. 2212 01:57:01,600 --> 01:57:06,000 Speaker 2: I am then told that Wednesday night, game two of 2213 01:57:06,240 --> 01:57:11,080 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark's WNBA playoff, they set another record on Wednesday night. 2214 01:57:11,200 --> 01:57:13,560 Speaker 2: And you know, it's sometimes it's kind of foolish just 2215 01:57:13,640 --> 01:57:15,240 Speaker 2: to come on the radio and give a bunch of numbers. 2216 01:57:15,800 --> 01:57:18,640 Speaker 2: They start to jumble together. But to make the point 2217 01:57:18,760 --> 01:57:22,720 Speaker 2: of the Caitlin Clark effect, you cannot not give numbers. 2218 01:57:23,400 --> 01:57:26,000 Speaker 2: That's just the fact, because the numbers really tell the 2219 01:57:26,040 --> 01:57:29,360 Speaker 2: story of what's going on. It's not just an imagined situation. 2220 01:57:30,480 --> 01:57:35,040 Speaker 2: The Caitlin Clark effect is real. It's been incredibly successful 2221 01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:39,080 Speaker 2: season for the WNBA, not just because of Kitlin Clark. 2222 01:57:39,120 --> 01:57:41,680 Speaker 2: But let's let's call it like we see it, and 2223 01:57:41,840 --> 01:57:46,000 Speaker 2: the numbers don't lie. She had a dramatic effect on 2224 01:57:46,120 --> 01:57:48,920 Speaker 2: the season and she's only getting better. And I think 2225 01:57:48,960 --> 01:57:52,000 Speaker 2: the league is on a rizon. They should get behind 2226 01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:57,200 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark, because it's proven to produce numbers. I'll be 2227 01:57:57,320 --> 01:58:00,920 Speaker 2: back on these airwaves Saturday night, eleven pm Pacific. Until then, 2228 01:58:01,640 --> 01:58:04,080 Speaker 2: we'll see you in the meantime. Keep it locked up. 2229 01:58:04,240 --> 01:58:07,200 Speaker 2: Next The Fellas on Fox Sports Radio
