1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour. It's a Meet Friday. Morale is high.

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: We're down a Danette, but we gained a backroom guy

4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: Dylan is in for seat, and the Minister of Humor

5
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: Fritzie is here Marvin Pauliers. Truly it's grilled ribbis, loaded

6
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: baked potatoes.

7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 2: Who has it better than we do? Nod alrighty. Stat

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 2: of the Day brought to you was always by Panini America,

9
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 2: the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Good

10
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: morning if you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner, and

11
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 2: we say good morning to our radio affiliates, iHeartRadio Fox

12
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 2: Sports Radio as well. There was a front office executive

13
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 2: who recently was quoted as saying he thought that Cooper

14
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: Flag would have more of an impact on winning his

15
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 2: rookie year than Victor Wembenyama. Well, okay, there's a couple

16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: things wrong with this. Cooper Flag is going to a

17
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: team that's better than the San Antonio Spurs, aren't There?

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: Is Cooper Flag going to be as good as Victor

19
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 2: wem Benyama's rookie year? And the answer is no, No,

20
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 2: is he going to be a twenty ten guy. Is

21
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 2: he going to lead the league or up there in block?

22
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: Shawn's no, He's going to a team where he will

23
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 2: fit into a team. Victor Wembenyama went to San Antonio

24
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: as the team and that's the difference with this. San

25
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: Antonio wasn't good. That's why they got the number one pick.

26
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: Dallas lucked into the number one pick. They shouldn't have

27
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: gotten it, but they defied odds and they got Cooper Flag.

28
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 2: If Cooper Flag went to Washington, now we can have

29
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 2: an apples to apples comparison. Victor Wembanyama, despite not having

30
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: a point guard, his first year was great. Now there

31
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: were times where he would be out of place, he

32
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 2: would be muscled a little bit. He didn't he couldn't

33
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 2: establish position and a point guard, a better point guard,

34
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: would have put him in better pos And that's why

35
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: I thought, give him a legitimate point guard and you're

36
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: going to watch him go and he's going to be

37
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 2: the best player in the sport. I don't think Cooper

38
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 2: Flag's going to be the best player in the sport.

39
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 2: I think he's going to be a very good player,

40
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 2: potentially a great player. And what I love is that

41
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 2: it'll be at both ends of the floor. There won't

42
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: be this argument of yeah, he's a good score, but

43
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 2: he doesn't play any defense. That won't be the case

44
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 2: with Cooper Flag. But to say that he'll have more

45
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: of an impact on winning than Victor, that's not true.

46
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: Switch him up Victor Wembanyama on Dallas and Cooper Flag

47
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 2: on San Antonio.

48
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 3: Yes, Marvin, if Wemby was on Dallas, they'd be a

49
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 3: championship contender.

50
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: Yes, Yes, And they might be a championship contender with

51
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 2: Cooper Flag with Kyrie when he comes back. It's a

52
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: very good team and they should be a really good team.

53
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: They should be a top five team in the West

54
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: when they're healthy. They should be a top five team.

55
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 2: But you can't compare Cooper Flag to Victor win Benyama.

56
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 2: It's not fair to win Benyama who went to a

57
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 2: bad team. Yes, Marvin.

58
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 3: Also, can we get rid of this term? This term

59
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 3: kills me. Can we get rid of generational talent? Every

60
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 3: single year? That's not a generational talent, it's generational.

61
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: Gosh. That grinds my gears forgiving me. Okay, all right,

62
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 2: keep your head up, all right, Come on. It's me Friday, Ally,

63
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: come on out, come on. Yeah. By the way, the

64
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: youngest first round in the NBA draft since the ABA

65
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: NBA merger just under nineteen years of a twenty years

66
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 2: of age, I should say, and there were no freshmen

67
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 2: drafted last night. It was almost of oh, yeah, I

68
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: know that guy. I remember that guy. That guy's played

69
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: a few years at Creighton. He played a few years

70
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: at Florida. That was the feeling I got last night

71
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: when I'm watching this, and you know, we love to

72
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 2: hand out grades, and we love to do that immediately

73
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: who won who law, especially with the NBA. I saw

74
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: two different experts, I guess, assessing what the Brooklyn Nets did.

75
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 2: One had laughingstock, another one said, I'm going to give

76
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: them an a an a for their draft picks. They

77
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 2: drafted four guards and they drafted a big man out

78
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 2: of Michigan, Danny Wolf. I have no idea. There's been

79
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 2: so many times where I've said I had no idea

80
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: that guy was going to be that good. You can

81
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 2: go Kawhi, Greek Freak, even Shay Gilges, and then these

82
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 2: are recent I have no idea. Now, Joker, I didn't

83
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: know anything about nobody did. If they did, they wouldn't

84
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 2: have drafted in the second round, and they wouldn't have

85
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 2: drafted him. Where they go to commercial break to a

86
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 2: Taco Bell commercial, they would be like, oh, saw Denver,

87
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: they got a steal here. It can never happen. And

88
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: trying to handicap and eighteen year old. Try to do

89
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: that with your own kids, who might be eighteen or

90
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: nineteen years of age. You can't do it. I have

91
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,799
Speaker 2: no idea how good Dylan Harper's going to be. Ace

92
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 2: Bailey vj Edgecombe. I have no idea. Now I could

93
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: see things. I could see signs or glimpses where you go. Oh,

94
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 2: I like that. I'd like to see them. You know,

95
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 2: there's a few things, But what do you do in

96
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 2: big games? How does your shot look? What do people

97
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: say about your work ethic?

98
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 4: Like?

99
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 2: Those are just basic things that I would want to know.

100
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 2: I got to know if I got somebody who wants

101
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 2: to be great, who wants to work at being great,

102
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: who understands what it takes to be great? A team player?

103
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 2: Do you play defense and offense? How does that shot look?

104
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 2: Are you a good free throw shooter?

105
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 4: Like?

106
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 2: These are just simple things that I would look at

107
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 2: with every one of those players, and then you would

108
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 2: have red flag that would pop up with certain aspects

109
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 2: of their games. But if they're eighteen or nineteen or twenty,

110
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: nobody's a finished product. And I don't know if anybody

111
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 2: can say Cooper Flag is supposed to be great, Dylan

112
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 2: Harper is supposed to be good. Ace Bailey potentially, I

113
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: don't even know if he wants to play for Utah.

114
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 2: That's not a good start. And then you'll get guys

115
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: who are drafted in the second round, where you go,

116
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 2: how do they slip putt? It's trying to assess talent,

117
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: trying to assess that guy is going to become That

118
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 2: might take three years, four years, but we do want

119
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 2: immediate results. And it's not fair to an eighteen or

120
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 2: nineteen year old because most of them haven't received great coaching.

121
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: AAU is not great coaching. Now there are some, but

122
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: you get to college and Tom Izzo has you for

123
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: six months. Okay, CALIPERI, you know how much can you

124
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: really change somebody with an AAU culture going into college?

125
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 2: But given out grades, I mean I read him. I

126
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: like to see what people say. I just don't put

127
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 2: any value at all, any stock, because if somebody comes

128
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 2: back and says, why did you like the Nets draft? Well,

129
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: I figure, if you take four guards, maybe you get

130
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: two that are pretty good. Maybe they're building blocks, maybe

131
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 2: you use them to trade for some I don't know.

132
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 2: I mean Danny Wolf. I watched him at Yale, I

133
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 2: watched him at Michigan. And good passer. Okay, so now

134
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 2: you got five guys who can pass the ball for

135
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 2: the Nets. Okay. They are worse things to have, yeah, Paully.

136
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 5: And also the development. Tyrese Maxey was the I think

137
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 5: he was the twentieth pick of the draft, not a

138
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 5: high end pick, not a low pick. His first year,

139
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 5: he started eight games and average eight points. Last year

140
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 5: he averaged twenty seven. But it took three years, four

141
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 5: years to get there.

142
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 2: And I remember seeing him and I even said to Marvin,

143
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 2: I said, he'll be the best player on the team

144
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 2: one day. They'll build around Tyrese Maxy. But it's only

145
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 2: because you're watching them play and then you see the graduation,

146
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 2: like they went from this to this. It's like Anthony Davis.

147
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: I said, he's unbelievably skilled, and nobody thought that he

148
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 2: could be. You know, it's like Patrick Ewing came in

149
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 2: and people didn't realize he could shoot a jumper. Anthony

150
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: Davis had a handle and because he had a growth spurt,

151
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 2: so he learned how to handle the ball because he

152
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 2: was smaller. And I said, that guy will be the

153
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: best player in the draft. Now, sometimes you see it,

154
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 2: sometimes you don't. I mean Luca, I only so highlights

155
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 2: of him in the European League, and I should have

156
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 2: factored in a little bit more of how old they

157
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: were and how old he was, and he was the

158
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 2: MVP and playing in those leagues in those conditions, in

159
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: those environments. There's no NBA environment and no arena that

160
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 2: comes close to some of those places that he played in. Yes, Mark, Hey,

161
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 2: you saw the.

162
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 3: First round of the draft where they were just nothing

163
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 3: but freshman, you know, being drafted in the second round.

164
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 3: You saw super seniors getting in there in the first round.

165
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 3: Is basically, hey, we have the potential to see this

166
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: with the super seniors that were picked in the second round.

167
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: We've already seen your best work. Or why were you

168
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 3: in school for four years? If you were that good,

169
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 3: you wouldn't have been in school for four maybe five years.

170
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 2: Also, here's something. I don't know the timeframe on this,

171
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 2: but it's going to happen here in the next probably

172
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: two weeks, and that is voting on if they're going

173
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: to expand March Madness probably going to be maybe two

174
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 2: week period. And I don't have this nailed down. I'm

175
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: just from what I'm told and my college sources have

176
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 2: been impeccable throughout all of this, going back, you know,

177
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 2: to COVID. It might be one of those where it's

178
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 2: kind of voted on in summer and and they sneak

179
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 2: it past us. Nobody is asking for expansion. By the way,

180
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: there's no rallying like college football. It's like, yeah, man,

181
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: you got to go to sixteen, Like that happened as

182
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 2: soon as you get to twelve to go to sixteen.

183
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 2: That's not happening in college basketball. Do I think there's

184
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 2: going to be expansion.

185
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 4: I do.

186
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 2: Do I think it's going to go to seventy two.

187
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: I do. There's still the possibility that it could go

188
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 2: to seventy six. But I think they're going to vote

189
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 2: on that, and I think they'll be you know, they're

190
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 2: going to expand it a little bit. And I think

191
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 2: you can do it and it doesn't really impact the tournament.

192
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 2: It'll just be more of those first four games, and

193
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: I think if we kind of beef that up, it

194
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 2: can be more of an event. I don't like you

195
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 2: play into the tournament. I just don't like that you're

196
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 2: either in the tournament or you're not. But if they

197
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 2: want to have language that says that, that's fine. But

198
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: I think they're going to be voting on this in

199
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 2: the next two weeks. I think they're going to expand.

200
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: I don't think seventy six. I think it's going to

201
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,319
Speaker 2: be seventy two. So they add four more teams. Once again,

202
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 2: nobody asked for it, but it just felt like there

203
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 2: was this ground swell and some of the coaches are

204
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 2: talking about this. Well, of course, they are more opportunity

205
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 2: to make the tournament. Jim Mayheim said ninety six. I

206
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 2: was like, Jim, what is wrong with you? In a retirement? Yes,

207
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 2: Marvint just.

208
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 3: More coaches to complain when they don't make the tournament. No,

209
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 3: nobody gets to complain like you were seventeen and fourteen.

210
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: You have plenty of opportunity not to lose fourteen games.

211
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 2: Yes, Todd, we can't call.

212
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 6: It the first aid, So it's the first four, the

213
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 6: next four. We got to come up with a kep.

214
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 2: Titlee Yes, everything has to have a title to it.

215
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: And if we have a literation, even better March madness, yes, Martin,

216
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: the first is four. Well, it's the first is eight.

217
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 2: Maybe it's an awful idea, I know, but I believe it's

218
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 2: going to happen. And the vote who's going to take place?

219
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 2: I think soon? But nobody asked for it. Poll question

220
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,319
Speaker 2: Dylan for the final hour of this program.

221
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 7: All right, Dan, well we teased it last hour. But

222
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 7: have you ever been hit hard by a fictional character's death?

223
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 2: Oh? Okay, yeah, if you're going all about that, uh,

224
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 2: Bamby hit me pretty hard. That's a classic. Yeah, Bambi did.

225
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 2: I didn't understand that when I was really really young.

226
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 2: Still don't understand it. And I remember my mom talking

227
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 2: to me about life and death and I don't know.

228
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 2: Was I five, Like, I didn't, I didn't like, I

229
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 2: didn't know pets died. I didn't know Bambi was going

230
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 2: to die, but kind of crushed me a little bit.

231
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 2: Uh So, fictional character. We talked about this with Marge Simpson.

232
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 2: They I guess faked her death or people thought that

233
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 2: she died on The Simpsons and that's not the case

234
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: any other Todd, did you have a fictional character growing

235
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 2: up that died that impacted you? No? Really, you know, I.

236
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 6: Got teary eyed from BAMBI also Old Yeller, that Old

237
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 6: Yeller would die. I don't know. I don't know what

238
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 6: happened to.

239
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 2: The dog very much. Yeah, yeah, that was kind of

240
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 2: Old Yeller was a bummer too. I thought Lassie lived

241
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 2: on forever and I found out Little Timmy, you know,

242
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 2: lost Lassie. They had a couple of Lassies on there. Yes, yes, Bully.

243
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 5: When I was a little kid, it was a big

244
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 5: deal at the time. Mash was the most popular sitcom

245
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 5: spoiler here. Henry Blake passed away in the middle of

246
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 5: the show, like halfway through the series. He left the show,

247
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 5: and it was a shocker when they announced.

248
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 4: That he died.

249
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Marvin, did you have anything that jolted your childhood?

250
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 3: Thomas, the Macaulay Culkin character in My Girl, He had

251
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 3: an allergic reaction to bees and then he hit like

252
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 3: a big bee hive and he didn't make it.

253
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 4: Didn't make it.

254
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: Saw the glasses just laying there like no, yeah, paul

255
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: that was a big deal.

256
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 5: When that happened, a lot of people were like little

257
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 5: kids are in the movie theaters and thought this was

258
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 5: this feel good young relationship movie. And then mcaulay Culkin's

259
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 5: character dies.

260
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 4: I don't remember.

261
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: I didn't see the movie. Oh spoiler, yeah, no, need

262
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 2: to see it now, No need to see it now, Noboddy,

263
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 2: Alex in Utah, Hi Alex, what's on your mind today?

264
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 8: Hey, good morning, gentlemen. I haven't seen Mago Girl either,

265
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 8: but just from the cover, I know I don't want

266
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 8: to watch you, just because I know it's going to

267
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 8: be devastating. I can't watch McAuley culkin. Yeah, that's a

268
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 8: good poll, Marvin, so real quick.

269
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 9: I just want to I don't think people paid enough

270
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 9: attention to Polly's theory about the step back. I did

271
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 9: a little bit of research, and step back jumpers are

272
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 9: on the rise in the last decade, and I just

273
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 9: think about the mechanics of pushing back with one foot

274
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 9: and then stopping all your momentum with the other foot.

275
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 9: I don't think that doctor gave Paulie enough. He didn't

276
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 9: mull it over enough. I think we need a second

277
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 9: opinion on that one.

278
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: All right, thank you. Alex. Paulie thought that the step

279
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 2: back jumper may be leading to the rash and the

280
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: epidemic of achilles injuries. I think having shoes that aren't

281
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 2: high tops could have an impact on this. But yeah,

282
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 2: there's more step back jumpers. Because nobody was doing a

283
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 2: step back jumper ten years ago, there has to be

284
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 2: more step back jumpers. I think it might be more

285
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: of that you don't wear high tops anymore, and maybe

286
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 2: the support. The Mets lost a pitcher last night, guy

287
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: that the Angels drafted Canning. He was just backing up.

288
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: So you have these random injuries that bring about the

289
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: same result of a torn achilles ruptured achilles. I mean,

290
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 2: who was taking a step back jumper when they did this, PAULI.

291
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 5: See, I don't necessarily think that the injury could always

292
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 5: happen on a step back jumper. I think it's the

293
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 5: for the past ten years. My guess is that guards,

294
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 5: especially shooters, are practicing the step back jumper hundreds of

295
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 5: times daily and that leads to stress on the calf

296
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 5: and the whole area. And I can't think of any

297
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 5: other explanation for the recent ones in the past ten years.

298
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd go with the shoes. I'd go with high tops.

299
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 2: Nobody's wearing high tops anymore. Of all these guys who

300
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 2: blew out their achilles, how many were wearing low cut shoes.

301
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: Dame Durant, Halliburton, all low cuts, Kobe, So that's had

302
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: something to do with it. Maybe I don't know. The

303
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 2: NBA is, you know, they're doing some real research on this,

304
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 2: you know, maybe they come up with something there help

305
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 2: you prevent this. All right, He's got one of the

306
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 2: great nicknames, the Big Dumper Seanle Mariners catcher cal R.

307
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 2: He's got thirty two home runs. He is, he's doing

308

317
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,120

00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: He's still moving.

326
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 2: Cal Rawley catcher for the Seattle Mariners, and he leads

327
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 2: all of baseball and home runs and RBIs. Twenty twenty

328
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 2: five is obviously a career season, but he's had home

329
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 2: runs before each of the last three seasons. He's led

330
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 2: all catchers twenty seven homers, then thirty, then thirty four,

331
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 2: and he joins us Now, cow, what's different this year

332
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 2: as opposed to the last couple of years.

333
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 11: I think really just me trying to be consistent at

334
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 11: the plate and not you know, going up and changing

335
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 11: a bunch of things mid season, trying to you know,

336
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 11: go down rabbit holes so you know, even if I

337
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 11: do have a bad game or two, just really trying

338
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 11: to stay within myself and my approach and folks on

339
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 11: what I can do rather than what the pictures shrying

340
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 11: to do to me?

341
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: How often do you go up to the plate trying

342
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 2: to hit a home run?

343
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 4: Well, usually when I do, it doesn't work out very well.

344
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 11: So it's you know, the I guess the old saying,

345
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 11: you know, kind of happens by accident. So you know, pictures,

346
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 11: you know, you to take advantage of the mistakes when

347
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 11: they do. And I'm just trying to square it up

348
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 11: and hit it through the middle of the field.

349
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 2: You're in there. Pretty famous people here, like when you

350
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: look at what you've accomplished. The number of players to

351
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 2: reach thirty home runs before the end of June, Babe

352
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 2: Ruth Ken, Griffy Junior, Sammy So said Mark McGuire, Barry Bonds,

353
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 2: Albert Poohols sho heyo, Tani Aaron Judge. Pretty good list there?

354
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 4: Does that seem very fitting? Forny?

355
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 2: But how do you do you embrace this that you belong.

356
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 2: This shouldn't be viewed as who is this guy and

357
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 2: where did he come from? If are you surprised at

358
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 2: how great you have played this year?

359
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 11: I mean, you know, you always want to have that

360
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 11: confidence as a baseball player going to the box. You

361
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 11: want to feel like you're the best player in the world, right,

362
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 11: But you know, I think you know the real side

363
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 11: of it now, I don't. You know, it's hard to

364
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 11: kind of fathom, you know, you know, especially when you

365
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 11: rattle off names like that. So anytime you're in that

366
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 11: kind of you know, company me with hearing those names,

367
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 11: you know you're doing something, you know pretty good. So

368
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 11: really just trying to you know, keep my head down

369
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 11: and try to keep going, you know, not really trying

370
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 11: to think about that too much, and just trying to

371
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 11: see how far I can go.

372
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: You get recognized outside of Seattle.

373
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 4: Outside of Seattle, yeah, not very much. Noh sometimes, Yeah.

374
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,160

Speaker 2: right now, Oh yeah, easy and go anywhere. You could

Speaker 4: after the show.

419
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean this is a big deal there, big

420
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 2: big opportunities. We're talking to Cal Rawley, the Mariners catcher.

421
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 2: Who was your like idol or who did you kind

422
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 2: of pattern yourself since you're a switch hitting catcher. Not

423
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 2: many of those?

424
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, there's not a lot of those. I'd say.

425
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 4: I grew up a diehard Red Sox fan, so Jason

426
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 4: Vertek was kind of my guy growing up.

427
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 2: Have you met him?

428
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got to meet him a few times.

429
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,959
Speaker 11: He's on staff with the Socks right now, so I've

430
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 11: got to chat with them a little bit. But yeah,

431
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 11: I loved him obviously, him being a sweat hitter catcher

432
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 11: and you know, him having the sea on his chest,

433
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 11: you know, as the captain was a really cool thing

434
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 11: growing up and just somebody I idled and or was

435
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 11: my idol.

436
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 4: And it was great to watch. And you know, I

437
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 4: watched a bunch of other catchers.

438
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 11: As well, you know, Posey Molina, those are some really

439
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 11: good ones as well, but the Veritext the one that

440
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 11: sticks out.

441
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 2: I was wondering if there was any correlation between being

442
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,479
Speaker 2: a catcher and being a good hitter, because you're so

443
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 2: used to seeing pitches that you call for these pitches,

444
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 2: you know what it looks like, the spin, change up,

445
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 2: how it comes out of the hand. Is there any

446
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 2: correlation there of helping you as a hitter by being

447
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: a catcher.

448
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I believe so.

449
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 11: I mean, you know, I think as a catcher, you know,

450
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 11: I spend most of my time doing scouting reports, talking

451
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 11: with pictures about how they want attack hitters, going over

452
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 11: their weaknesses. So I think you can kind of flip

453
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 11: flop that and use that as an advantage as as

454
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 11: a hitter. And you know, you can kind of you

455
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 11: can kind of think along sometimes with with other catchers

456
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 11: and other pictures and see how they're attacking you and

457
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 11: go off the patterns and and pass how they pitched you.

458
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 11: So it's taking some time to kind of learn how

459
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 11: to do that. But but so I'd say that it

460
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 11: definitely helps be in the catcher because you can you

461
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 11: can understand that part of a little bit. But at

462
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 11: the end of the day, you still got to go

463
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 11: out and put a good swing on the ball and

464
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 11: and find something in the heart of the play.

465
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 2: How do you feel when the pitch you called for

466
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 2: is hit for a home run?

467
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,120
Speaker 4: You don't feel good?

468
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: I mean, do you apologize? Have you apologized to your

469
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 2: picture gone out to the mound?

470
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 4: Yeah?

471
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 11: Because sometimes I mean, you know, I think at the

472
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 11: end of the day, it's all about execution, you know,

473
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 11: when it's coming out of the picture's hand. But there are

474
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 11: sometimes where you're like, you know, maybe I I messed

475
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 11: that one up, or you know, I think it just

476
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 11: goes hand in hand as a as a battery, you know,

477
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 11: as a picture and catcher, you're working together, and you know,

478
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 11: sometimes you mess up, sometimes you get it right. It's

479
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,719
Speaker 11: just kind of how it goes as as the catcher.

480
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 11: You know, you you you wear some of those a

481
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 11: little harder than others, depending on the situation and depending

482
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 11: on what you call it. So you know, sometimes it's

483
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 11: on the picture sometimes it's on the catcher.

484
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 4: It's just kind of how it goes.

485
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 2: How long are you allowed to admire a home run

486
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 2: that you've hit?

487
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,719
Speaker 4: Uh? I think you can take a good look at it,

488
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,239
Speaker 4: but you know you don't want to. You don't want

489
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 4: to be that guy.

490
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 11: You don't want to take too long, and you know

491
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 11: you don't want to show anybody up on the opposing side.

492
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 11: And next thing you know, you're one of your teammates

493
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 11: getting thrown at or you're getting thrown at.

494
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 2: So but once you get past first base, col oh.

495
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 11: I you know, I have a pretty decent job. You know,

496
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 11: I don't take too much time around the bases. I

497
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 11: just you know, you got to show love to the

498
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 11: bullpen because they're rooting on out there, so you give

499
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 11: them a little point and then and then you you

500
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 11: crossed home and you go get the gear on this.

501
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 4: How it goes?

502
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:05,959
Speaker 2: What's a home run sound like?

503
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 11: I mean typically they sound pretty loud that usually when

504
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 11: you get them good, you don't it doesn't feel like

505
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 11: you hit anything. It just kind of feels like it

506
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 11: was just like a smooth swaying, like almost like a

507
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 11: dry dry hack. So it feels good. And when you

508
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 11: get it sweet though you can.

509
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 4: It's pretty loud, the crack of the bat.

510
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: And what's the stolen bases? What do you got nine

511
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 2: stolen bases?

512
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 4: Yeah? I got nine this year.

513
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 2: I am are you deceptively fast?

514
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:33,679
Speaker 4: Say?

515
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 2: Are you? You're sneaky fast?

516
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 4: Sneaky fast? I think I still I broke the record.

517
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 11: Our manager here was the catcher for a while with

518
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 11: the Mariner, Stan Wilson, and had he held the record

519
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 11: for a catcher in the org and I broke it

520
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 11: this year, and I thought about doing the whole rooky.

521
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 2: After the game today. I'm the greatest, that's right of all.

522
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 2: Did they give you the bag after you set the

523
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 2: organizational record for solon bases? No?

524
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 11: That was unfortunately it was only like seven, so it

525
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 11: wasn't number.

526
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 2: Johnny Bench, to me, the greatest catcher I ever saw,

527
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 2: and he's very impressed with you, has some great things

528
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 2: to say about you. That's the highest praise I think

529
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 2: you could get because Bench was a great athlete, power hitter,

530
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 2: and I think the greatest defensive catcher of all time.

531
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 11: So yeah, that's I mean, getting getting that kind of

532
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 11: lot from him, And what he said was, you know,

533
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 11: it means the whole world to me.

534
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 4: So I got to meet him this year at the

535
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 4: etic Old Glub banquet.

536
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: Oh cool.

537
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 4: Got to talk with.

538
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 11: Him for a couple a couple hours and just sit

539
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 11: and talk all of them and it was just amazing.

540
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 11: Hearing the stories and getting to chat with him was awesome.

541
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 2: Well, great to talk to you. Good luck. I think

542
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 2: your second in the MVP race according my odds this morning.

543
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 2: I've got Aaron Judge and then you.

544
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 4: So I appreciate that.

545
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that's not bad not bad company here striking going. Yeah,

546
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,679
Speaker 2: all right, well you can stay anonymous maybe just walking around,

547
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 2: but not when you come to the plate. So continue

548
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 2: to do that and let's work on a sponsors ship there.

549
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 4: Col I appreciate you, thanks for having me on.

550
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 2: That's Kyl Raleigh calling the Big Dumper. He's fine with

551
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 2: that great nickname and sneaky, sneaky athletic as well. Stealing

552
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 2: some bases there. But he hit home runs before. I

553
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 2: think people maybe would be surprised that he's led catchers

554
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 2: and what's the al time record Kent City Royals catcher Perez, Yeah,

555
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 2: he had forty eight. I think that's the ALZ time record.

556
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 2: You'll see guys though, that have unbelievable first halfs of

557
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 2: the season. And I think Reggie Jackson hit thirty seven

558
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 2: home runs first half of the season, and I think

559
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 2: he hit ten or twelve the second and a half

560
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: of the season. Might ended up with forty seven or

561
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 2: forty nine. Yeah, Paul, Yeah.

562
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 5: The catcher list is Salvador Perez in twenty twenty one

563
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 5: forty eight, Hobby Lopez in three with forty three, Hobby Lopez, yeah,

564
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 5: Todd Hunley forty one in nineteen ninety six. Then you

565
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 5: go back to Roy Campanella nineteen fifty three with forty one,

566
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 5: Mike Piazza nineteen ninety nine with forty.

567
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 2: Wait oh home runs, Okay, yes, I thought you were

568
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: talking stolen bases. I'm going wait a Mike Piazza had

569
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 2: the picture. Yeah, I can't imagine Pizza running. You know

570
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 2: that they give him the green light? All right? A

571
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 2: couple of phone calls Dan in Connecticut, Hi, Dan, what's

572
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 2: on your mind today?

573
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 12: Hey guys? Hey Stafford Connecticut, six foot two, twenty first

574
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 12: time caller, longtime listener. So we were going back to

575
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 12: nicknames when I was in college ball and then went

576
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 12: to pro ball. Luckily, I just curached out, uh. For

577
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 12: the Seattle Learners, my nickname was Payo, and when I

578
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 12: got the pro ball, Payo for the Latin Americans was

579
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 12: Fart in Spanish. So during spring training and during all

580
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 12: my years of pro ball, they would recognize me as

581
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 12: Paloe and then go Payo and walk around and I

582
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 12: got pretty famous for that.

583
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 2: All right, well, thank you Payo.

584
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 6: That can't be good.

585
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I mean I can I can

586
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 2: accept the big dumper. I don't think Payo. I'd have

587
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 2: maybe a little problem with that.

588
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 6: And they're making the sound effect and calling you that

589
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 6: I just double problem.

590
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 2: Thank you, Todd Jacob been Illinois. Hi Jake, what's on

591
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: your mind today?

592
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 13: Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call first time, long time,

593
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 13: five seven one fifty. I had I had a question

594
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 13: or I really wanted your opinion on the nca tournament

595
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 13: Expand they've had these first four games in the past

596
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 13: couple of years now, and I've always been a little

597
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 13: thrown off. How come they have You'll have two eleven

598
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 13: seeds playing each other instead of all these sixteen seeds

599
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 13: that get directly into the first round instead of the

600
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 13: first four. Shouldn't the first four, the sixteen seed versus

601
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 13: sixteen seed, and then play your way into the tournament.

602
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 2: Well, I think they like that sixteen seed that's always

603
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 2: going to be there to start March madness. But there

604
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 2: is a formula for the teams. It's the last teams

605
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 2: that go in. But you know, the sixteen seed is

606
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 2: already in the tournament. These other ones, you know, it's

607
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 2: just where they are that they they've already had the

608
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 2: sixty eight and now you add or sixty four and

609
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 2: then you add the other four.

610
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mark, Yeah, I love that because I don't think

611
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 3: the sixteenth or fifteen should be in it. It should

612
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 3: be those eleven twelves that barely got in those other

613
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 3: sixteen seats. They had to win their conference tournament, you know,

614
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 3: So why should we have to go to Dayton. We

615
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 3: won our conference tournament. We should be able to go

616
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 3: to the actual tournament.

617
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,920

677
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 2: I appreciate that. I've been there on great setting. Jeff

678
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 2: Bagwell cape Cod League? Was he a cape Cod guy?

679
00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 2: I remember seeing him in New Britain, New the brit Socks.

680
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 2: Remember seeing him in the minor leagues?

681
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:11,839
Speaker 5: Yes, when you can get chowder at a concession stah, that's.

682
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 2: Where you make your name for yourself. I remember there's

683
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: a video out there. Ken Kaiser. Ken Kaiser was the

684
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 2: home plate umpire and I hope I have the story right.

685
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 2: Ken Kaiser left handed umpire like he would always punch

686
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 2: you out with his left hand, and when he called

687
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 2: like close played first and he would just do that.

688
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 2: He got hit one time in the mask with a pitch,

689
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 2: and I think he was accusing the catcher of doing

690
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 2: it on purpose. So Kaiser got blasted right in the mask,

691
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 2: and then he threw the ball to the pitcher on

692
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 2: the ground. He was the home plate umpire, and I

693
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 2: think he gets hit right in right between the eyes

694
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 2: and he is so upset at the pitcher. Yes, Paul,

695
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 2: I got the video.

696
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,720
Speaker 5: Kevin Malar was at the plate.

697
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:05,919
Speaker 2: It's a Yankees game.

698
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 5: Ken Kaiser, I guess, was a former wrestler, big strong dude.

699
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 5: He gets very upset, and like you said, he rolls

700
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 5: it right back to the pitcher and it looks like

701
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 5: they're going to get into it.

702
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 2: I've never seen that before. That The umpire gets the ball. Well,

703
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 2: I've never seen a catcher purposely not catch it to

704
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 2: get the umpire and he rolls the ball back to

705
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 2: the mound. It's pretty wild. Yeah, how about this day

706
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:32,880
Speaker 2: in sports history?

707
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 5: I just got one for you, Okay, this is fun.

708
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 5: In Atlantic City nineteen eighty eight, Mike Tyson knocked out

709
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 5: Michael Spinks in only ninety one second.

710
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was there. That was a big deal. And

711
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:56,240
Speaker 2: I remember Danny Iello the actor and Matt Dillon the actor,

712
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 2: and I remember being ringside, and that fight didn't last long.

713
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 2: It was almost like it was over before he even

714
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: threw a punch because Tyson came in the ring, and

715
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 2: all I did is stare at Michael sphinx. And if

716
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: Michael could have just did just tapped down just like there,

717
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 2: if there was an ejector seat, he would have sat

718
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 2: at it and just said, ah, keep your money. Who

719
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 2: had the best week in sports? Todd? The best week

Speaker 2: in sports? The Utah Jazz.

721
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 6: In their draft, they weren't afraid to select East Bailey

722
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 6: with a fifth pick, even though he was reportedly one

723
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 6: of the teams that he his agent didn't want to

724
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 6: go to.
