We got 25 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: two games in Major League Baseball, Dodgers now one game 26 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: away from the World Series. The Blue Jays wanted to 27 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: people know, hey, hey, we're still alive here. Don't shovel 28 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: durning us yet. And of course Thursday night football second 29 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: half about to start in is the Bengals with a 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: seventeen to ten lead over the Steelers. But the Dodgers 31 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: win Game three, three to one, in another game in 32 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,839 Speaker 1: which it was an incredibly well pitched game, Tyler Glass. 33 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: Now now they Dodgers eat a little bit more out 34 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: of their bullpen because Glass, I'll get into a little 35 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: bit of the sixth inning through about ninety nine pitches, 36 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: but you get what you need from trying in from banda. 37 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: Sasaki looks like he's back in the outing. He had 38 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago in his rear view mirror. 39 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: And this is three incredible pitching performances by the Dodgers 40 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: in a row to move one game away from the 41 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: World Series. If you're a Milwaukee you are saying, right now, 42 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: what do you want us to do? We had just 43 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: run into a pitch, a starting pitching buzzsaw, which is 44 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: exactly what the Dodgers envisioned it to be when they 45 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: gave Blake Snell money, when they gave you a motto 46 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: three hundred million dollars, when they gave Tyler Glasnow one 47 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five million dollars. This is exactly what 48 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: they vision and vision. And I gotta say, Ah, the 49 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: Brewers need to X, Y and Z. What are you 50 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: gonna do? I mean, you have run into an absolute 51 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: pitching buzzsaw this round with the Dodgers. You just throw 52 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: your throw your hands up and say, Okay, maybe we'll 53 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: get back at it. Maybe we'll get some run. Maybe 54 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: we'll get a run, maybe we'll get two runs. Maybe 55 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: that'll be enough. 56 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. 57 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: But what are you gonna do? You can't it's nothing. 58 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: They've done nothing they could that this. Sometimes you just 59 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: run into a team that is just absolutely white hot. 60 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: It's not like the Dodgs are hitting, but they're hitting enough, 61 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 1: and they're pitching. I'm gonna tell you what this reminds 62 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: me of in a couple of minutes, which is a 63 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: little a little nerve racking for the Dogs. 64 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 5: But they're right nerve wracking right now. They're feeling pretty good. 65 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, there is there is nothing going wrong right now. 66 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: This is an unbelievable onslaught of pitching from the Dodgers. 67 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 5: In the end, and Pat Murphy, I'm sure he'll be 68 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 5: complaining about salaries and caps and I'm just a humble 69 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 5: manager here. 70 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: I have no thoughts on you. You had the best 71 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: record in baseball. You had what do you mean we 72 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: have the best record in base fight. 73 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 5: You've always got his cry about the disparity in pay 74 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 5: you one ninety seven games. 75 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: They don't know our names. 76 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 5: And blah blah, blah, blah blah. Here's the thing we 77 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 5: talked about it coming into the series. You only have 78 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 5: two guys that could qualify on the current metrics as 79 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 5: quasi thumpers like you didn't have a forty home run guy. 80 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 5: You have two guys over twenty eight home runs, which 81 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 5: meant it was about generating runs. Get them on, get 82 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 5: them over, get him in stolen base. Uh was one 83 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 5: of the big weapons in the arsenal all year long. Well, 84 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 5: when you only account for four hits and the control 85 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 5: has been fantastic all three pitchers. You look at Glass 86 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 5: now today another eight strikeout performance. You're not getting on base, 87 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 5: You're not even giving yourself a chance to be gnats, 88 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 5: to be annoying. And that's the tail of the tape, right. 89 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 5: You can't manufacture a run without getting on, which goes 90 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 5: back to Terra and how different it all is if 91 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 5: he just leans in right, knowing that every run was 92 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 5: gonna be at a premium because their pitching was great. 93 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 5: Misrowski's so much fun to watch when he's on and 94 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 5: healthy and ready to go. Maybe not for Dodger fans, 95 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 5: but they got that run early, and that's it. You 96 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 5: never look back, right, you get the one to one, 97 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 5: you finally get the lead, and you make it hold 98 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 5: up Sasaki clean and easy, thirteen pitch ninth inning, eight 99 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 5: strikes strikes out of that. So, I mean he was 100 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 5: ready to go, So all of its reset and you're 101 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 5: in a really good position because you didn't have to 102 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 5: tax any of these guys really hard and throw a 103 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 5: lot of pitches, and you go into Game four with 104 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 5: the commanding three to zero lead. Now we see what 105 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 5: Otani can do in the pitching side. 106 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: Now here's the thing you tell about, And this is 107 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: this is one thing that I feel like I'm I'm 108 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: kind of done with after today because it really didn't 109 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,679 Speaker 1: make sense. Right. We'll get to the Dodgers in a second. 110 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: But you watched the Brewers decide, and this has become 111 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: a real thing in vogue the last four or five years, 112 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: is to have openers and have different pitching plans. Instead 113 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: of here's my starting pitcher out there, we're going to 114 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: pitching plans, and by and large they work. Right. I 115 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: think the record of teams that go with bullpen games 116 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: or openers are like a ten and five or something 117 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: like that when they've gotten decisions over the course of 118 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: the past five years in the playoffs. So it works 119 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: to it, it works to affright, I get it. But 120 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: here's what I don't get right, And I didn't get 121 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: this today watching the game. So obviously, Miserowski's coming in 122 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be he's gonna be great. Right, He's 123 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: gonna come in and and the Brewers expect him to 124 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: come in after the first inning and pitch however long 125 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: you need to. Right now, obviously he was ready to 126 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: come in the first inning because he did come. He 127 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: had to, right, the Dodgers get a run and Miserowski 128 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: limits the damage, which is which is great, and then 129 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,239 Speaker 1: he's great over the course next four or five innings. 130 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: So here's what I don't get. If miss around, if 131 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: he's ready to come in that early, right, he's ready 132 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: to come in, and he's gonna come in after the 133 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: first inning anyway, why is he not starting the game, 134 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: Because what the flip side is gonna be is, well, 135 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: we have an opener. However many pitches he goes, and 136 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: then we bring in our best guy, and then we 137 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: get an extra couple of innings because it's only a 138 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: couple of times through the order. And I'm like, okay, 139 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: well time out a second. You can always do that 140 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: on the back end. Right, If you want to start 141 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: Miserowski and he goes five six innings and hey, you 142 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: get to the order a third time, you can always 143 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 1: make the move to the reliever. Maybe you need to, 144 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: Maybe you don't, right, Maybe Miserowski is saw in bats 145 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: and you don't need to do it, right, But why 146 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: would you have a lesser pitcher pitch to the best 147 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: three hitters or best four hitters in a team's lineup 148 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: when clearly you are ready to go to a better 149 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: guy for a longer amount of time that's coming in. 150 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: That doesn't make sense. I mean, I get where you think, oh, 151 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: we can skate through the first inning and they're only 152 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: going to see him once and he's not. You know, 153 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 1: the odds are Baseball is a game of failure and 154 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 1: getting a run is a thing. But why would you 155 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: start somebody? Why would you and not have your best 156 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: pitcher that you're gonna pitch that day, pitch against the 157 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: best hitters on the other team. I don't understand that. 158 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: And this is where I think managers get so out 159 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: of control with the bullpen games and the openers and this. 160 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: It's like, dude, if you have a guy that's been 161 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: and miss Rowski has been really good in the playoffs, right, 162 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: he was great in regular season to start, then he 163 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: hit a lull a little bit, but you can see 164 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: the talent this guy, the way he is throwing. I 165 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: would want him out there the first couple times through 166 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: the order, and then if I have to make a change, 167 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: I'll make a change. This is we're planning on making 168 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: changes before we see how the game goes. When my 169 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: idea and the idea that I think this is why 170 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: I can be a major league manager is Okay, let's 171 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: start the game with our best idea and we'll adjust 172 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: as the game goes, right, Okay, Misroowski doesn't have it 173 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: all right, we take him out, we go to somebody 174 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: else and X, Y and Z and that, But I'm 175 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: gonna go to him him. I want him to face 176 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: the best the best hitters in the lineup. I don't 177 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: want him to come in afterco well then then two 178 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: more times through the lineup. Okay, yeah, but you don't 179 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: know how the game is going to go the rest 180 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: of the way. You know what's gonna happen. All you've 181 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: done is I'm not putting him up against the best 182 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: three four hitters in the lineup and the Dodgers, and 183 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: what happened. They were chasing run already after the first time. 184 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 5: That's it, right, Ashby starts and he had already been 185 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 5: seen twice in this series, like he's pitched in every game. 186 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 5: And I get it to a degree, right, the old 187 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 5: oh and playing the percentages Simpson with two lefties in 188 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 5: their first four hitters. 189 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: However, nine home runs. 190 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 5: Today, however, Otani leads off with the triple Mookie Bets doubles. 191 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 5: It just like that, you're behind and the only last 192 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 5: sixteen pitches only gets one out before you go to Miserowski, 193 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 5: who was fantastic until fantastic, well until the shadows went 194 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 5: away until yeah, right, but he still really un You're 195 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 5: running in the shadow big deal, you're running the shadows 196 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 5: of the He's not shadow proof. 197 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: No he's not. No, no, no, no, no, he's not 198 00:08:59,000 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: the shadow Man. 199 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 5: That's all in five innings, pitched three hits, one a 200 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 5: and run and nine strikeouts. I think you'll sign up 201 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 5: for that. 202 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I okay, you start the game and all 203 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: of a sudden it's bang bang, Oh you're losing, and 204 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: now we're going to him, like, what do you do? Like, 205 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: sometimes managers get too cute, they get too involved in 206 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: a plan and not as much as Okay, you gotta 207 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: have a feel for the game and how it goes. 208 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: And what you're doing is you're saying, this is our plan. 209 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna do this, this and this before we even 210 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: see what happens in the game. Well guess what. When 211 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: the game starts, different things happen, and it's about how 212 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: you adjust. I would rather adjust to boy Miserowski giving 213 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: up a triple in a double. Okay, now we got 214 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: adjust because he clearly doesn't have it tonight. Because if 215 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: he didn't have it, then when you go to him 216 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: the second inning, then you go into a third pitcher 217 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: because if he doesn't have it, to take him out 218 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: even earlier. So now you're another pitcher down if Missowski 219 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: doesn't have it. So I've like managed, they just get 220 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: too cute and too caught up with a whole strategy 221 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: of oh, we're gonna do this and this, because I'm 222 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: the smartest manager in the world and I know of it. 223 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: Ashby again, who now the team has seen a couple 224 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: of times, gonna go in the first inning and we're 225 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: gonna hope to escape. By We're gonna hope to escape 226 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: and get out of the first inning. Otani's not been 227 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 1: swinging the bat. Well, maybe we can get through here. 228 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: And then hey, we're feeling good because then we got 229 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: Mizerowski through the lineup the next two times. In theory, 230 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: but everything changes when the game begins, and that's the 231 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: whole thing. And this is this is all you know, 232 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,079 Speaker 1: managers who I don't know if because they feel like 233 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: they don't have as much impact on the game as 234 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: it used to because many front offices make all the moves. 235 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: But you gotta have that feel during a game as 236 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: to what you got to adjust during the game. You 237 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: can only go in with so much of a plan 238 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: to say, we want to do X, Y and Z. 239 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do when it doesn't happen? Okay, 240 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: well now you go. Now you go to your best 241 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: pitcher and it's great, but you're chasing because you decided, oh, 242 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna have some crazy strategy where we don't have 243 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: our best guy pitching against the best guys in the lineup. 244 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 5: But but it dies together and that you're you're chasing 245 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 5: one run. And guess what's really been hard in this 246 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 5: series for you? Scoring runs? 247 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right on that one. I'm so smart. You're not. 248 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 5: You're not jetting it ru you got any Barry Bonds 249 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 5: battle armor sitting around that you can you know, give 250 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 5: a guy to stand and lean in to get get 251 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 5: a runner on base. Because you're you're having continually terrible 252 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 5: at bats. So every run has been magnified. It's not 253 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 5: like the Dodgers are doing a conga line around the 254 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 5: bases here. No, they had a couple of solo home runs. 255 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 5: It's fine, right, I mean, it was never in doubt ball. 256 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 5: But they've they've scored a total of ten runs in 257 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 5: three games. 258 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: You've scored three. 259 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, right, so every one of those moves gets magnified 260 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 5: on a whole other level. 261 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: And chasing down one. 262 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 5: Oh guess what, you haven't gotten graded bats, But now 263 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 5: you know that runs are at a premium. Guess what, 264 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 5: the bats get that much worse. It's just human nature. 265 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 5: They start chasing and pressing. And that's what you saw 266 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 5: as this game wore on. Glasow could have pitched himself 267 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 5: into a couple of bad situations. Guess what, they bailed 268 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 5: them out every time with a bad swing. 269 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: I mean really, it's uh. You have to understand that 270 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 1: when the gate like the mold Mike Tyson thing, everybody's 271 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: got a strategy till they get punched the mouth. Sometimes 272 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: you don't get punching them out to the fourth round. 273 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: Maybe you don't get punch in the mouth at all. 274 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: Sometimes the first punch is getting punch in the mouth. 275 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: And oh, what we gotta do here? 276 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,719 Speaker 5: Because the check so clear, that's the coding question going 277 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 5: through your. 278 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: Living You got punched them out. And the fact that 279 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: Missowski comes in with runner at second and nobody yet 280 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: bang bang bang, I have a pretty I have a 281 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: pretty I feel pretty good saying that. I think he 282 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: would have kept them off the board in the first inning. 283 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: I think he would have kept them off the board 284 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: in the first inning just throwing one hundred one oh 285 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: two is that I think he would have been. 286 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 5: Okay, how many kids do you think showed up with 287 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 5: Murphy in the post man?

And you know the thing about this, since 371 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: it's a sad story, because Freeley's one of the more 372 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: more love guys in rock and roll history, had a 373 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: great sense of humor. Everybody liked talking to him. It's 374 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: it's in times like this, like I always I feel 375 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: good about rock and roll in general because, like I 376 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: get to talk to people who don't know what Ace 377 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: Freely and Kiss was. I mean, Killer Kiss is one 378 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: of the most iconic bands rock bands of all time. 379 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: And you have some kind of no matter how old 380 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: you are, you have some kind of working knowledge of Kiss. Sure, 381 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: but I got to tell you this and this is 382 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: this is what I told Tysher because he was like 383 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: Ace Friel, he didn't really know Kiss, And I just said, 384 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: you know how big Taylor Swift is right now, right, okay, biggest, 385 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: biggest recording star in the world, right all this stuff, 386 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift is the junior varsity 387 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: compared to what Kiss was at the height of their 388 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: popularity in the seventies and early eighties. That's bold, but 389 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: I like it. And this is this is back problem, 390 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 1: but mainly because hey, you go back when when Kiss 391 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: had the makeup on. Obviously they all have the different masks, 392 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: and obviously you know Ace Freeley was spaceman and the 393 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: overall interest in Kiss was it dwarfed. What what people 394 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: think about tailors Swipt Now great, It's a different time frame, 395 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: a different landscape back then, with less music, less things 396 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: to do. But Kiss, like I try to tell people 397 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: they were there was such a popular I couldn't even 398 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: they had movies.

It 502 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 5: came from a magazine from two thousand and nine. I'm 503 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 5: an anomaly. I'm an unschooled musician.

Like 520 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 5: one of the first things he said is like they 521 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 5: gave us a start. It was a picture from nineteen 522 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 5: seventy four of them hanging out and talking about you know, 523 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: backstage and playing cards and just being stupid as a kid, 524 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 5: but being welcomed into rock and roll by these guys. 525 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 5: And that's one of their biggest pieces of their legacy, 526 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 5: was how they opened the door for a lot of 527 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:53,959 Speaker 5: other bands. 528 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just I mean, really, you see this today, 529 00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, it's a huge era of conic music 530 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: and personality.

Meanwhile, happening 546 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: right now, we got the Bengals on top of the 547 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: Steelers twenty to seventeen late in the third quarter of 548 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 1: more in that game coming up in a few minutes. 549 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: But it's all sunshine, lollipops and rainbows of the Dodgers 550 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: right now. Look, they're they're a hot knife through butter 551 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: through the Brewers. And like I said, you just throw 552 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,719 Speaker 1: your Okay, what are you gonna do? We shrugged, right, 553 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: We're just the Dodgers are just throwing bebies at us. 554 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 5: They're standing out with like their their cleats, begging you 555 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 5: for money. We need another pitcher. 556 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 1: However, I do have it going on to the World Series, right, 557 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: I do have one concern because of the team the 558 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: Dodgers remind me of, right now, Okay, And and look, 559 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: we talk a lot about when you play so well 560 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: in one series, you get a bounce into the next series. Right, 561 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: And the Dodgers are throwing the ball unlike any team 562 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: we've seen in the last fifteen years of Major League 563 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: Baseball as a team, right, whether it's Snell or Yamamoto 564 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: or Glass now tonight, even though relievers are good, right, 565 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: that's how good. Even the relievers who stink are all good. Right, 566 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: that's how big. So I see the Dodgers getting a 567 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 1: bit of a bounce pitching wise in the next round 568 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: of the playoffs. 569 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 5: Right. 570 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: We also talked about defense being a thing for the Dodgers, right, Hey, 571 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: I gotta make sure, but clearly this round it's not. 572 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: And frostbur is gonna hate me for saying this. You 573 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: have a chance to not do it then, but no, 574 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: But I got I got you have. I gotta be me. 575 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: I gotta say that the Dodgers. You want to sing 576 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: that out loud, I gotta be Remember this is gonna 577 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: come back to bite you, and that your mic. The Dodgers. 578 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: The Dodgers right now remind remind me a lot of 579 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: the twenty fifteen Mets who did the same exact thing 580 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: to the Cubs in the NLCS. Harvey cinder Guard matts 581 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: to Gram and they get to the World's end, it's like, well, hey, 582 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna crush the Royals because look at 583 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: the Look at how we threw against the Cubs in 584 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: that round of the playoffs. It was fantastic. But what 585 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: happened in the World Series. They didn't quite pitch as well, 586 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: they didn't quite play as good defense, and the Royals 587 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,479 Speaker 1: won the World Series because the Royals made contact, hit 588 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: ground balls, and the Royals won the bleeping World Series. 589 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: That's kind of what the Dodgers remind me of here, 590 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: because they're gonna get a bounce in the next round. 591 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,679 Speaker 1: Pitching wise, I can't see how you continue to keep 592 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: this up the entire way, not to this level. Not 593 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: they can't still pitch well, but like this, when you're 594 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: winning three to one, it's not like, hey, you're pitching well, 595 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: you're winning seven to one, eight one. No, you're squeaking 596 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: out two to one, three to one games. So that's 597 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: the one thing. If I can look at anything from 598 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, they remind me the twenty fifteen Mets who 599 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: looked like we're getting to the World Series, and I'm like, nah, 600 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: I'm ordering all my Mets World Series. We're gonna win. 601 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: And then I'm like, oh, man, the first batter of 602 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: the World Series sess but just drops a fly ball 603 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: the warning track, right, Like that's like the kind of 604 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: series it was. That's the only thing that concerns me 605 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: about the Dodgers's. Boy, I can see the defense and 606 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: I can see the bounce of pitching happening in the World. 607 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 5: Series, so I should of being able to take in 608 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 5: extended bats for both the Blue Jays and the Mariners. 609 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 5: That's gonna be a hallmark of what we see going forward. 610 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 5: How do you get those starters on the horse and 611 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 5: back out of the game? 612 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: Right? 613 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 5: Not going six to seven innings at a spot and 614 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 5: Glass now gave them a big effort. A guy who 615 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 5: much maligned over the course of the season, right for 616 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 5: early exits and some eccentricities, I think would be the 617 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 5: way to put it. But yeah, it's it's curious, and 618 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 5: I think for this game, the fact that you started 619 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 5: and again seeing Ashby for the third time certainly helped. 620 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 5: But you get the triple for Sho Hao Toni right 621 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 5: off the jump. And Mookie Betts, who, by the way, 622 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 5: you want to talk about your your fielding, you want 623 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 5: to talk about all all of those things in terms 624 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 5: of fundamentals. He's a Gold Glove finalist, all him somehow 625 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 5: Freddy Freeman is not. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Freddy Freeman 626 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 5: who should get it just for the one play at 627 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 5: the end of the game that he made, you know, 628 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 5: saving toddyem in a really, really bad error. He needs 629 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 5: to get the Golden Glove just for that. So you know, 630 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 5: to talk amongst yourselves won't bring that back up as 631 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 5: this rolls on. And good for Mookie Bets, that's fantastic, 632 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 5: But it's that, you know, dialed up and right now 633 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 5: once again the Dodgers pulling all the proper strings, just 634 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 5: as they did a year ago. 635 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: Does it always make sense? Hell no, But here we 636 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: are exit out about a Fresco exit swollen down the 637 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike harmon time 638 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: gow to find out what's trending in the wide world 639 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: of sports.

And I 747 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: gotta watch Joe Flatto throw for three hundred yards against us, 748 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: because you know that's what's happening. Well, he's a half. 749 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 5: Yard from his over under from the yard thirty seven 750 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 5: ye chase already over one hundred, but fantastic drive there. 751 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 5: Jalen Warren's been great fourteen carries, one hundred and twenty 752 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 5: one yard. Didn't see that coming to that level of success. 753 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 5: Also thirty one yards receiving on four receptions, but quick strike, 754 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 5: no Hendrickson, So no pass rush means a lot of 755 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 5: dancing for Aaron Rodgers in the ability to break things down. 756 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,919 Speaker 5: He had at least three pass attempts in the first half. 757 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 5: We had more than eight seconds to throw the ball, 758 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 5: eight seconds when normally he's the guy that has to 759 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 5: get it out. 760 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 1: Of two and a half seconds. Yeah, so plenty of 761 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 1: opportunity there. 762 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 5: Meanwhile, Vladimir Guerrero Junior homeward for the Blue Jays too 763 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 5: to extend there. It's his fifth home run in the 764 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 5: playoffs this year. How about that person dressed like a 765 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 5: wizard in the front row. Terrible effort to get that ball. 766 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: And the guy that came to the game dressed like 767 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 1: a wizard didn't have his glove turned the right way, 768 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: didn't catch the home run ball. But I will say this, 769 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,720 Speaker 1: if you come to a game dressed as a wizard. 770 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: Do you really expect him to have great glove work 771 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: if it's not Ozzie Smith. Okay, boy, Ozzie Smith was 772 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: the wizard, but he always dressed like a baseball player. 773 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: If you dress like a wizard out of baseball game, 774 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: I'm not expecting you to have great flashing of the 775 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: leather skill. 776 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 5: I think I might be able to find a clip 777 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 5: of him with Tommy Lasorda as part of the Baseball 778 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 5: Bunch where he was actually dressed.

And people are 833 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: transferring from Notre Dame and Alabama and Texas and go 834 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: these places, and now many Daz is probably gonna get 835 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: mentioned to be the Penn State head coach because he 836 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 1: was there as a DC and is doing really good 837 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:10,399 Speaker 1: things at Duke Former Sports Center, Pa many DS. But now, 838 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: you know, as long as as long as you have 839 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,439 Speaker 1: a coach everybody likes, you can compete with everybody else, right, 840 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: And that's why all the top schools hate it. That's 841 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 1: why Alabama hates NIL. In Michigan and Ohio sid they 842 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: all hate it because they all have to pay a 843 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: lot more money for their guys. And also they know 844 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: that other teams are gonna get really good players because 845 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 1: just because we're Michigan, they're Indiana doesn't mean Indiana doesn't 846 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: have people that can give money to put them on 847 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,720 Speaker 1: an equal playing field. That's why the top schools hate 848 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: nil and the middle schools now, hey, we can do 849 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 1: this and do it legally. This is what the best 850 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: part is about college football now is a guy like 851 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 1: Kurtzignetti can stay at Indiana and get ninety three million dollar. Yeah, 852 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: it's funny. 853 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 5: We went through the odds for the Benn State coaching 854 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 5: job yesterday. He wasn't one of the leaders. He was 855 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 5: kind of and also ran because it was believed in 856 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 5: a large way that he probably would stay in Indiana 857 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 5: at least a little while longer and see smarter. So 858 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 5: Matt Rule, I think it pushed his percentages up over 859 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 5: the course of the day. Your guy, f fran Brown, 860 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 5: I'm sure to come on, man, don't take fran Brown. 861 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 1: Take manny Ds. He's great. I worked with them an ESPN. 862 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: I'll write a letter recommendation for him. Don't take Fran Brown. 863 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 1: But it becomes part of that equation. 864 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,800 Speaker 5: Right, you talked about legally paying and certainly there's plenty 865 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 5: of athletic departments, coaching staffs, et cetera that you know, 866 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 5: like the old way when it was, if you're willing 867 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:36,760 Speaker 5: to go out there and risk possible exposure of such 868 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 5: that the reward was great with some risk. But again 869 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 5: the toothless NCAA certainly helps you there. But when you 870 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 5: look at the landscape now, if your team wants to 871 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 5: get be involved, you can activate you decide. Right, you 872 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 5: look at Syracuse, you look at the Northwestern teams that 873 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 5: should have had a first mover advantages based on their 874 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 5: alumni base, and where you just need to make sure, 875 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 5: your coach wants to play the game right. You always 876 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 5: had to do it in the recruiting game anyway, but 877 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 5: it's now that on steroids like it is on a 878 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 5: whole other level of all right, what's the level of 879 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 5: administration and going through that process? And the teams and 880 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,399 Speaker 5: organizations that have decided to really lean into that, they're 881 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 5: the winners. 882 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: In this process. But players want to play right. 883 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,399 Speaker 5: So a guy getting six million will go somewhere else 884 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 5: instead of maybe, all right, we're gonna stash you a 885 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 5: bit for a little bit more money because y'all got 886 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 5: no proof of concept. 887 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: If I have to do that exit, how about a 888 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: fresco at Swollen Dome.
