15
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: We're in nearly four hundred cities around America. Last night's

16
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: Home Run Derby was supposed to be a coronation for

17
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: show Heyo Tani. Didn't quite work out that way. Otani

18
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: was knocked out in the opening round by Juan Soto,

19
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: and then the defending champ, Pete Alonzo, put on a show.

20
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: You know, the air and Corps field in Denver certainly

21
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: helped the met slugger hits some of the longest home

22
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 1: runs we've ever seen in a home run derby, and

23
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: he ended up beating the Orioles trey Man scene in

24
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: the finals. Alonso looks like he was built to win

25
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: a contest like this, and it didn't even look like

26
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: he was swinging hard once he got into a rhythm,

27
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: easy stroke and the ball was flying in the Colorado

28
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 1: air last night. And maybe it wasn't the Otani display

29
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: that we expected, so we'll have to wait until maybe

30
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: tonight in the real All Star Game. But thanks to

31
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: Alonso's impressive power, it was still a pretty impressive, pretty

32
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: entertaining evening. Now I'm going to nitpick a little bit

33
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: because they're trying to speed up the home run derby

34
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: and therefore you're on the clock. You didn't get to

35
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: see the ball land on a lot of these home runs.

36
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: You just had to take Carl Ravitch's word that it

37
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: was a home run. Now, there was something about Chris

38
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: Berman putting the emphasis on the home run that you

39
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: knew it was a home run, whereas RAVI, I think

40
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 1: with the split screen it didn't do it. I think

41
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: I did a disservice to the actual Hey, we're watching

42
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: long home runs. We want to see how far they're gonna,

43
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: you know, go, where do they land? And it was

44
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: just so rapid fire. But you did have great storylines there.

45
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: Would I would have liked Otani to go a little

46
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: bit further. Yes, Alonso was great, what a wonderful interview. Afterwards.

47
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: He talked about, Hey, I wanted to be in this,

48
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, I owe this to the fans. When I

49
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: was young, I wanted to be in the Home Run Derby.

50
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: And he's made almost as much money winning the Home

51
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: Run Derby as he has from the Mets in his

52
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: three years there. It's just I think around two point

53
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: seven million he's made from the Mets in three years,

54
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: and he's made two million dollars winning the Home Run Derby.

55
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: But who out of the day that right out of

56
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: the gate, all right, yeah, no, go ahead, you know,

57
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: ramp it up. He seemed like a decent stat. Yeah, No,

58
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: it is an interesting stat that he's made almost as

59
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,399
Speaker 1: much from winning the Home Run Derby's he has accredit. Yeah,

60
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: but that was fun, great storylines there atmosphere. We didn't

61
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: have the Home Run Derby a year Ago Alonso wanted

62
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: the previous year. Therefore he's gone back to back. I

63
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: think Ken Griffey Junior and Yo Na Cespitus or the

64
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: two have gone back to back. But it was fun

65
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: night and just to see Otani out there. And I

66
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: give him a lot of credit because you got, you know,

67
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: these astros who were playing the victims and they don't

68
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: want to be going to the All Star Game because

69
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: God forbid, they might get booed. Otani is in the

70
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: home run derby. He's gonna pitch tonight and he's gonna

71
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: lead off. I mean that's great, Like I love that

72
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: you're you understand the role there. And I know that

73
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: there was the story that came out with Stephen A.

74
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: Smith yesterday that hey, you know, for the betterment of

75
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: the game, he should learn English, and you know he's

76
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: speaking through a translator. Therefore nobody really is able to

77
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: I guess embrace Shohey Otani understand him as a personality there. Now,

78
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: he did do interviews yesterday, and I don't know if

79
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: it's just a coincidence that whatever Stephen A. Smith was

80
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: saying and the fact that Otani and his translator did

81
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: an interview yesterday I just know when I was growing up,

82
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 1: I never once, never once said, gosh, I wonder what

83
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: kind of personality Hank Aaron has. I never once said,

84
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: I wonder what Willie Mays is really like. Now it's

85
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: a different generation. We do want more from our stars.

86
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: I understand that. Like Mike Trout's been criticized, Hey, come on,

87
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: you gotta be out there, you gotta be a personality.

88
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: Well that's just not who he is. But with Shohei Otani,

89
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: what I'm seeing when he plays speaks volumes. Now, if

90
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: he's learning the language, wants to learn the language, he's

91
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: going to go through a translator. We've had players, We've

92
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: had stars who've done this before. You know, there's guys

93
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: who played who spoke English, who didn't say anything. Steve

94
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: Carlton famously didn't say anything for decades. Tom Brady never

95
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: said anything for fifteen years. Right, So I don't want

96
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: to say, oh, Shohei Otani, you gotta do these interviews.

97
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: And I don't know what Stephen A. Smith's mindset is.

98
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it could be altruistic by saying, look, this

99
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: is for the betterment of the game. I don't think

100
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: he realized what he was saying in the moment, doubled

101
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: down on it and then you know, apologized. But I'm watching.

102
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 1: That's what I as a fan. I'm just I watch.

103
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: I want to watch greatness. I don't need to hear greatness.

104
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: You know. Part of you know, the sports society now

105
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 1: is everybody who wants to tell you how great they

106
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: are and they're not. I want to see how you are.

107
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: And Shohyotani is great. He's the unicorn. This is unique

108
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: what he's doing. We want to compare him to Babe Ruth.

109
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: He's different. I mean, Babe just did this for a

110
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: short period of time. Otani is elite as a pitcher,

111
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: but he could be all world as a hitter, and

112
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: he wants to continue. Babe decided in nineteen nineteen, hey

113
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to pitch anymore. And he was a

114
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: great pitcher. I mean, imagine if Jacob deGrom showed up

115
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: today and said to the Mets, I think I'd like

116
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: to play right field and I don't want to pitch anymore.

117
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: That's what happened with Babe Ruth. Babe was you know,

118
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: winning twenty games, and he said, hey, I'm gonna be

119
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: a hitter. Shoheyotani is doing this in the moment now,

120
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: Do I like it? No? Because I don't want to

121
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: lose him his bat if something happens to his arm

122
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: again that that's really the important part of all of this.

123
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: Yet Tommy Johnny year ago, so you know what, we're

124
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: a little less than two years removed from that. I

125
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: just don't want to lose him, lose the bat in

126
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: the lineup. And his manager, Joe Madden will join us

127
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: on the show tomorrow and I don't know whose call

128
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: it's going to be, but I'm enjoying it in the moment.

129
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: And the translator and Otani, you know, did an interview

130
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: yesterday and I thought that was a great exchange. Pedro

131
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: Martinez was talking to Otani through the translator and was saying,

132
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: you know, when you're on the mount, are you thinking

133
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: as a pitcher? Are you thinking as a hitter? Because

134
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: and it really it's it's it was a great question

135
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: by Pedro. You know, I'm gonna guess we'll get more details.

136
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: Remember each yearo fabious player, Hall of Famer Yao Ming.

137
00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: I remember interviewing him with his translator. Do I want that? Yeah?

138
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: But do I need that? No? Do I want to

139
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 1: see you great? Yes? Do I need to tell have

140
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: you tell me how great you are? No? But what

141
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: we see with Shoheyotani last night, and we're going to

142
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: see that tonight. But I mean, it's really amazing what

143
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: he's done. He said, thirty home runs and made ten starts,

144
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: like nobody's done that thirty at least thirty home runs

145
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: and ten starts in the same year, and he's done

146
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: it in eighty one games. It's just remarkable. As much

147
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: as we want to say, well he's Babe Ruth, he's

148
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 1: different than Babe Ruth, and in some ways he's better

149
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: than Babe Ruth. This is a guy who has elite speed,

150
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: elite power, and an elite arm. It just doesn't happen.

151
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: And I hope he stays healthy. You know, do I

152
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: like that he we don't see those games. You know,

153
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: it's West Coast, it's the Angels. Yeah, Okay, that's not

154
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: his fault. Not everybody can play for the Yankees or

155
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. But what I like to see him on

156
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 1: display a little bit more. Absolutely, But even last night,

157
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: it was a nice cameo and it was a nice

158
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: warm up to what we're gonna have tonight. He's gonna pitch,

159
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna and baseball bending the rules. I've been saying

160
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: for the last couple of weeks. Make an exception here.

161
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: It's an All Star game. Promote the game, and they

162
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: did have fun with it. That's what we want to see.

163
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: Sometimes you have to give the fans what they want

164
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: to see, as strange as that may sound, give them

165
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: what they want to see, something that's unique. Now. Did

166
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 1: I tune out after Otani got eliminated in the first round? Yes?

167
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: I did. Did I come back? Well, I did after

168
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: I was watching Australia beat Team USA and basketball mclub

169
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: and goes hey, Team USA and trouble against Australia and

170
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: I go what sport? And it goes basketball and I go,

171
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 1: oh my god, are they gonna And they lost again.

172
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that coming up though, because I don't

173
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: know if this is a thing or not. Is this

174
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: a big deal now? I think it is a bigger

175
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: deal than what most will lead on. I think Greg Popovic,

176
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: the head coach, was like a yeah, you know this happens,

177
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: and you know we're still figured out our two. If

178
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: I gave you the starting five for Team USA against

179
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: the starting five for Australia. Like there is if you

180
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: had a pickup game, the guys on Australia don't get

181
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: picked until maybe the ninth or tenth guy would get

182
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: picked after all the American players. I mean, that's that's

183
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: that's the god's honest truth with this. But they do

184
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: know each other, they played together. They understand a team

185
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 1: concept where Team USA is an all star team. Imagine

186
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: as I'm watching this last night, if Lebron James was

187
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: on that team and not Kevin Durant, so Lebron had

188
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: lost to Nigeria and Australia, that would be leading sports shows.

189
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: Skip Bayliss would be apoplectic. Lebron no shows, what's this

190
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: due to his legacy? But Kevin Durant nothing to see here,

191
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: It's just Team USA. If that had been Lebron, Oh,

192
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: people will be shouting from the mountaintops. You know this

193
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: is on Lebron. Yes, Clevin, they need Lebron, Lebron, Lebron.

194
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: That's what I kept saying. I was like, oh my god,

195
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: they see a guy who's sixty nine who can dunk

196
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: on these guys. No, you're right, this team is I

197
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: mean Jeremy Grant, Calvin Johnson, I know he's out. Okay,

198
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: wait wait, just I'm gonna give you the starting lineup though,

199
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: the team US says Jason Tatum, Dame Lillard, Kevin Durant,

200
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: Bradley Bu Draymond Green. Yeah, that's an Olympic team, Draymond Green.

201
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: Did you see who Australia had out there? Yeah, they'd

202
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: Matisse thybel my six ers got yes, better than Draymond Green. No,

203
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: he's not. Jamond Greed's one hundred and he's a six

204
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: five center. Bad Patty Mills, Joe Ingalls, Matthew devil Bdova.

205
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: You're not even even in the league anymore. Hey, come on,

206
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: zero points at twenty three minutes for delaat exactly. Team first. Yeah,

207
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: plays first, playing his game. That's what Deli does. Yeah,

208
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: that's good Deli. And they have Chris Mannock special Dante

209
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: Go Mannox was sending me a note last night, Dante Exum,

210
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 1: I'm going on, he's gonna be right about you know,

211
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: Ricky Rubio or Dante Exim. I will say this though,

212
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: he's loyal. This program brought to you by Mercedes Benz Vans.

Speaker 1: Let's take a break mclub and you will have a

217
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: pull question for me, coming to throw out one real quick?

218
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: Could the Dream Team beat this current team in Team

219
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: USA basketball there at they're current ages. Yes, that's my question.

220
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: I think they could have beaten Australia last night. Now

221
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: I will say this that Team USA, the Dream Team

222
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: from ninety two, probably still thinks they could beat anybody. No, no,

223
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: this guy, you get magic out there. Let me come on, Barkley. Uh. Yeah,

266
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: a poll question. Then we'll hear from Team USA head

267
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: coach Gregg Popovich, who wasn't in a great mood post

268
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: game last night against Australia. Okay, this guys sound really mean.

269
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: Are you going to tune out after the Showhyotani experience tonight?

270
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: So he's I believe hitting first and pitching the first

271
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: inning up. You know, baseball has not had good ratings

272
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: for the All Star Game. It feels like I wonder

273
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: if people tune in for Otani and then flip around, well,

274
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: if they tune in for him, that's a positive for

275
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball because without Otani then what would be

276
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: what would be the hook for this other than it

277
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: is the All Star Game and you want to see

278
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: maybe you know your favorite players on your favorite team nationally, though,

279
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: what is the storyline? It Showhyotani? And even last night,

280
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: just the fact people would be tuning in just to

281
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: see show hey Outani, Like, that's a positive for Major

282
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: League Baseball. There were some good storylines. I did like

283
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: the lineup that they had and those players who are

284
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: willing to take part in the festivities. You know, Mancini

285
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: is a cancer survivor. That was a great story as well.

286
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: Some young talent in there, And that's what you want

287
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 1: to do. You just want to introduce an audience to

288
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: maybe somebody that they hadn't seen before, a storyline they

289
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: hadn't heard before. But tuning into Ceo Tani, maybe by

290
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 1: proxy you were able to see some of these other players. Yeah, mclub,

291
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: do you think by next year's All Star Game, shoey

292
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: Otani'll be pitching and hitting or basically how long do

293
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 1: you think this lasts? I don't know, And that's why

294
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: I wanted to have Joe Madden on as manager just

295
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: to find out, you know what is do you just

296
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: do this? You just go as long as you can,

297
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: as long as he's healthy. I did watch the Yankee game,

298
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: the Yankees start, and it was too much, I think

299
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,719
Speaker 1: because it was really hot in New York. You're pitching

300
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,719
Speaker 1: and then you're gonna hit, and I think that's an

301
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: awful lot. But that's just a casual observer looking at

302
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: this that he just didn't look like he had energy,

303
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: and he looked spent last night and he was only

304
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 1: there in the first round. He looked tired. I can't

305
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 1: imagine what that's like, because you know pitchers creatures that

306
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: have it, and they have four days to prepare for

307
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: one start. Well, he doesn't really have that because he's

308
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: still playing every day and then you get ready to pitch.

309
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: I just don't know what that does to you. Mentally physically,

310
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: you know, I would have no idea, but mentally just

311
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: understanding of all right, I gotta learn who I'm pitching

312
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: against and you're also trying to learn who you're hitting

313
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: against in the process. And I think that that's that's

314
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: a lot to ask for anybody, and he's been able

315
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 1: to do it. Yeah, point going back to him, he's

316
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: going to lead off the All Star Game and pitch.

317
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: What if they had him lead off the All Star Game,

318
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: bat a few innings and then be the closing pitcher,

319
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: then you have to stay for the whole thing. He's

320
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 1: going to come in at some point of the pitcher.

321
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: You may stick around if you know he's coming into

322
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: pitch at some point in the game. And I know

323
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: they want to start him, but like you said, if

324
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: if he leaves at the end of the second ending,

325
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: so are others. Yeah, but if he pitches one inning

326
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: but stays and hits, maybe gets a couple at bats.

327
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: But I couldn't have him start then wait, then come

328
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: back and then try to warm up again. I mean,

329
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: there's only so much that I could ask of him

330
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: if I'm Major League Baseball. But they did bend the

331
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: rules so he would be able to start, and he

332
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: could be the DH there for the All Star Game.

333
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: That's what we want to see. Have fun with this,

334
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 1: and they did. Yeah, as long as they're bending the rules,

335
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 1: can they just put him on the Dodgers and make

336
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: this all better help everybody? Yeah? Or the Yankees would

337
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: probably Yeah, Yankees would like to And I did wonder

338
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: about that that, you know, certain cities, certain teams fit

339
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: a personality there. How would o'tani do if he was

340
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: on the Yankees and you have that scrutiny there and

341
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: so many more media members the Dodgers. Being on the

342
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: Dodgers would have helped that. There are other stars there

343
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: and the team, you know, World Series champs. I don't know.

344
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: And where would he be in the rotation with some

345
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: of these teams. I mean, he's the best pitcher on

346
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: his team and the best hitter on his team. And

347
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: this is a team without Mike Trout right, Now, what

348
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: else do you have in club Okay? Team USA basketball?

349
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 1: Would you rather watch him struggle and possibly losing Olympics

350
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: or roll over everybody? As a basketball fan, not as

351
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: an America I want to see him play close games.

352
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 1: Like the Dream Team was fascinating because we got the pros,

353
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: We got to see Magic and Larry and Michael, you know,

354
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: just it was it was once in a lifetime experience

355
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: there and they were blowing out everybody Angola, But this

356
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: time around, you know, I love that the rest of

357
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: the world is at least competitive, and that's what you

358
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: saw with Nigeria. But This is because of the Dream Team.

359
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 1: And if I'm looking at the ages of these guys,

360
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: they were all impacted by the Dream Team around the country,

361
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 1: their parents were and what happened, What is happening? They

362
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: got Argentina coming up tonight. Argentina's fourth in the world. Argentina.

363
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: I would expect Argentina to win this game. I wouldn't.

364
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: It's like, I'm not surprised Australia one last night, but

365
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: I am surprised that Nigeria beat the United States. No

366
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: matter who is out there, but Australia. These guys have

367
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 1: all played together for a while, and there's something about

368
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: that group. When you go to the playground and you

369
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: got guys who have played together, they just know what

370
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: to do. And here's another thing to keep an eye

371
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: on a team. USA. All we do is high pick

372
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: and roll. That's it. There's no ball movement, high pick

373
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: and roll, high pick and roll, high pick and roll,

374
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: high pick and roll. How are you great? How are

375
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: you Australia? Moved the ball? You want to beat a

376
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: team of all stars, move the ball, make them work.

377
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: They don't want them work. Move the ball in Australia

378
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: did that last night and they got open shots. They

379
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,719
Speaker 1: don't have the talent anywhere near the talent of Team USA.

380
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: But when you move the ball, I make you move

381
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: as well. If not, I get a layup, I get

382
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: an open jumper. Like Patty Mills has been in the

383
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: NBA and Greg Popovich has been his coach his entire

384
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 1: career in the NBA, he should know what Patty Mills does.

385
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 1: Joe Engles, what does Joe do? Good passer shoots the three?

386
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 1: Like there's no secrets. But they made Team USA work,

387
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,199
Speaker 1: and I think that's what these other teams are going

388
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 1: to do. You have the world rankings, their seat and

389
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 1: so Team USA. Is Team USA still number one? Unless

390
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 1: this is old? Yes, yes, currently they appear to be

391
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: number one. Okay, do you want to guess? Or Spain? Yep, Okay,

392
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: they're stacked, They're stacked. And then Argentina's four. Argentina's four,

393
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: So who is three? France? Uh no, frances at seven?

394
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 1: Okay yeampo? I want to guess. Is Canada in the mix?

395
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 1: Seem like there's a lot of good players from Canada lately.

396
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: Canada now they're down at twenty one. Uh yeah, yeah,

397
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: I've got at three? Is Australia Showdown. Oh okay, number five.

398
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: How about Serbia coming in there? Okay, yeah, okay, that's Serbia.

399
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: Then the rest of the top ten is uh grease

400
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: is at six, France, Lithuania, Russia and Italy. Okay, how

401
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: about that? All right? So I think once team USA

402
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: gets everybody together and then they kind of pick up

403
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: the intensity here, especially with Popovich, then you know, should

404
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 1: they win the gold? Yes? Will they win the gold?

405
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, but but I do like the fact

406
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 1: that there is competition here a little bit. Yeapo, I

407
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: think we should be lighting up Canada today. How are

408
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: they so low? They've got Trey Lyles, They've got Andrew Wiggins,

409
00:23:55,680 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: Lugan's dort Your boy, Lugan's Dorton RJ Barrett J. Barrett, Huh,

410
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: Steve nash Leo Routin's sure, Oh that's right. They're not

411
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: playing anymore? Yes, any chance the US basketball team is

412
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: throwing these games to get some storylines going heading into

413
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: the Olympics. Now, these are must watch me. You don't

414
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: know what's going to happen. They're not just running through

415
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: the turkeys of the world. So you think NBC is

416
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: programming this it's possible that they were like, pop, can

417
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: we talk to you for a second. What if we

418
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: throw the like sort of lead up games. Okay, so

419
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 1: you treated almost like friends, an episode of Friends, Like

420
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: we want to dictate what happens here with Ross and Race.

421
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: This is there's an arc to the story. Okay, I

422
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: like it, Yes, Toime, I like that. It takes a

423
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: lot of pressure off the team and the expectations that

424
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 1: the Team USA has to win and win like fifty

425
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: points against every country. Now there's some doubt, thank you,

426
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: ton Well. Yes, mclovin. Joker will not play for Serbia,

427
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: which is a disappointment because he was taking the summer off.

428
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: That team would be great. And I'm not a Joker guy.

429
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: But Ka is playing with Slovenia. I don't know if

430
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: fiar Slovenia. Do you know have you scouted the slavin

431
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: I did watch them play when they qualified, so I

432
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: did watch some of the highlights. No, no, no, I'm

433
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 1: not doing that anymore, not scouting anymore. All right, uh

434
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,959
Speaker 1: so let's settle on a pull question. I don't want

435
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: to play Greg Popovich from last night. I want to

436
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: put up do you want to see Team USA in

437
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 1: close games. I'm curious if there's an argument against that

438
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: where people want to see the blowouts. And I do

439
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: have a properly rated Okay, I thought that this was funny.

440
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: It made me laugh out loud when when you said overrated, underrated,

441
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: properly rated, and you said Babe Ruth. Do I think

442
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: babe is overrated? No? I mean he he changed the

443
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: sport pitching and hitting to do what he did. You're

444
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: out of home ring entire teams, you win almost one

445
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: hundred games, and and he didn't take care of himself

446
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: and he was still able to die. I'm gonna say,

447
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: I'll say properly rated is the greatest player of all time. Yes, boy,

448
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: Baby Ruth almost feels like he's beyond an athlete, Like

449
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: you can't rank him with athletes. He feels like a

450
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: like an entity or a legend or he like a

451
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: folk here almost more than an athlete. Yeah, because people

452
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: will talk about him two hundred years from now, whether

453
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 1: his stats his stats are all gone. But he almost

454
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 1: feels like it's like secretariat to racehorses. You know you're

455
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: going there's there's racehorses, and then there's secretariat. Yeah, like

456
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: Muhammad Ali will be famous two hundred years from now.

457
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: Whether his boxing stats will be irrelevant, will show Hey,

458
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: Otani be famous two hundred years from now. Anytime you

459
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: do something for the first time, you land on the moon. Yeah,

460
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: if he keeps going like this and he comes up

461
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: all start both positions a couple of times, Yes, Todd,

462
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,479
Speaker 1: is it possible that Babe Ruth had a really good

463
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: publicist if you keep saying someone's name over the year's

464
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: over and over again, and then you keep adding stories

465
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: and he pointed to where he's gonna hit the home run,

466
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: and then you know he hit eight fifty hot dogs

467
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: before doubleheader, and then you just hear these stories. You

468
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: don't even know if half of them are true. So

469
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: I wonder maybe he's a little over it. Well, if

470
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 1: his name is George, if he's just George Ruth, he's

471
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: not going to be that pop yet, totally agree. Now,

472
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 1: was he winning the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest? Before

473
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest? Was he Kobayashi or

474
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: whatever that guy's name is, Joey chestnutt before like he

475
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: could have been a champion in that as well? Is

476
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 1: that brought up? No, it's not, that's how incredible baby,

477
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: And don't even get me started on his drinking and

478
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 1: a ladies man at that good old day. He was

479
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: Nameth before Joe Nameth. Right. Yes, people say you're the

480
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 1: Babe Ruth of something, meaning you're the greatest. And the

481
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: other one is the Beatles. You say they're the Beatles

482
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: of this, like that that you're on such a high

483
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: level that you're defined. It's like that means great. But

484
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: you guys think the Beatles back Row thinks the Beatles

485
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: are overrated. Yes, but if you say someone's the Beatles

486
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: of what they do, that's a good thing. Would you

487
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: rather be Paul McCartney or Babe Ruth like historical longevity? Yeah? Whoa?

488
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: Or sorry you saying that Paul McCartney is the Babe

489
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: Ruth of musicians? And John Well Lennon died early and

490
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: Babe was fifty three when he died. Yes, so John

491
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: Lennon is Luke Errick and this this today today? Um,

492
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,959
Speaker 1: did they ever fix that sound system in Yankee Stadium?

493
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: I always wondered about that. I got this echo, echo Echo,

494
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: Can somebody fix this? Fix this? Wouldn't that have been great?

495
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: If Luke Garrick did that today today I got echo

496
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: echo Like Gary, it would have changed them back dumb,

497
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm the lucky get this thing fixed. But then it

498
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: wouldn't have sounded nearly as good to hear now, Betting

499
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: number two, Derek, Bob Shepherd, you're waiting for the echo,

500
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: which a lot of times wasn't there, but it was implied. Yes,

501
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,719
Speaker 1: God would imagine if he would have just gone back

502
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 1: and the dugod refused to finish his speech until they

503
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: fixed the technical thing, it would have been great. And

504
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: Susan Waldman would have said something, oh my god, he's

505
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: not going to finish his speech till they fixed the

506
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: technical stuff, the echo. And of course anyway, here's the

507
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 1: two too, and the speech would have been sponsored too.

508
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: By the way, everything in a Yankee game is sponsored.

509
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: Everything should have been posed. Never any feedback with bows

510
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: headphones back to you, John, This feedback brought to you

511
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: by Bo's headphones. John. Oh alrighty Luke Garrick human ever, Yeah,

512

Speaker 1: I know I know too soon, Yeah, well today today.

513
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: My favorite Yankee sponsorship though, is definitely the oh Lo

514
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: Jack caught stealing, Like, how do you possibly charge for?

515
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: How many times do people get caught stealing in a season,

516
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: How do you charge for that? Jack caught stealing? Yeah,

517
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: that's kind of that's kind of difficult. I mean, it's

518
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: very creative, it's super creative. Yes, it's just nobody steals

519
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: basses anymore. Yeah. Yeah, we should sponsor triple plays in baseball,

520
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 1: and if it ever happens, they have to mention that

521
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: Dan Patrick or the cycle. Yeah, I'm gonna sponsor this

579
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,640

580
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: but it is a showcase for some of these players.

581
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: And I love the fact that Otani wanted to be

582
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 1: in the home run derby and then tonight double duty

583
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,399
Speaker 1: starting the game and then he will lead off as well.

584
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 1: But that's how you become. You know, does anybody sit

585
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: back and go you know, I remember Bo Jackson and

586
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 1: all the interviews that he did and all the things

587
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: that he said. No, we remember what he did when

588
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: he played. And you know when stephen A was talking

589
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: about you know, we need to hear him, he needs

590
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: to be talking. And I want to see you perform.

591
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 1: That's all I care. I just to see how you perform.

592
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:07,359
Speaker 1: Bo didn't speak, Bo didn't do many interviews, but Nike

593
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: made him a star, but he actually performed, and that's

594
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: what I want out of stars. I just want to

595
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: see what you do. Yeah, see right, that's so that's

596
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: going to say about Bo Jackson, though, he might not

597
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: have done a lot of interviews or something like that,

598
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: but he had one of the greatest marketing campaigns ever

599
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: that made him into a superstar. Absolutely, and same with Dion.

600
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: I mean maybe this happens with Showhey, but but Dion

601
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: did it when he was on the field. Bo did

602
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: it when he was on the field. So I don't

603
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: get caught up in There are guys we have on

604
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: who are really good interviews and maybe not as good athletes.

605
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: There are guys who aren't very good at doing interviews

606
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: who are really good athletes. But I didn't get caught

607
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: up and look, Steve and A made a mistake. I

608
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 1: don't think he understood the gravity of his words and

609
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: what he was saying and how that was going to

610
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: be translated to other languages. In fact, it need any translation.

611
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: I think everybody understood. No, that's not what you should

612
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: be saying about Shoheyotani or any athlete. You know, when

613
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: you come in from another country, the Dominican Republic, and

614
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 1: you might not know our language, but I'm watching you

615
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: and how you perform, right, I mean, Stefan Marbury was

616
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: a star in China. I don't know if they went

617
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: you know what, he doesn't speak our language. They were

618
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 1: fascinated to watch him play basketball, that's all what. I

619
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: like Mike Trout to have more of a personality, sure,

620
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 1: but that's not who he is. And he speaks English,

621
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: by the way, So I don't go, you know, I

622
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,399
Speaker 1: just don't buy into Mike Trout and being a great

623
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 1: player because he doesn't speak English or he doesn't talk,

624
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 1: or he doesn't not a colorful personnel. No, I just

625
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: want to see you perform. And granted I'm an old guy,

626
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,839
Speaker 1: and maybe the younger audience, they do want that. They

627
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: want access, they want to know more about you. I'd

628
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 1: love to know more about Shoheyotani. I really don't know

629
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:09,359
Speaker 1: that much about him, but we have asked for him.

630
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: We ask for him and his interpreter. We ask for

631
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:16,399
Speaker 1: just his interpreter, and he might be a great story

632
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: as well. But that's why I said, all right, if

633
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: we can't get them, then let's have Joe Madden on

634
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 1: because I would like to be able to find out

635
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: more about him and share that with the audience, because

636
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: I do think it's it's an unbelievable story. Yeah, mcclevin.

637
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: The irony is this will be the highest rated All

638
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: Star Game in ten years. Probably they've They've been setting

639
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: all time lows every single year for the last five years.

640
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,720
Speaker 1: So people are tuning him for him, yes, and hopefully

641
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: they will tonight, and hopefully baseball can build off of this.

642
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:53,399
Speaker 1: You know, baseball is famous for you know, it's it's

643
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: like Lucy and Charlie Brown with the football, where you go, hey,

644
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 1: we got the football right there, Charlie, you're gonna pull

645
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,319
Speaker 1: that up. No I'm not, and then they do like gets.

646
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 1: It's it's two steps forward, sometimes three steps back. And

647
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: I was nitpicking with you know, the camera angles. I

648
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 1: didn't like to split screen last night. How about a

649
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: camera behind home plate? We used to have that. But

650
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: you know, they're trying to speed up the process here

651
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: with home run derby. I understand it, but I want

652
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: to see where the ball went. There were times where

653
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 1: I just went, I guess that's a home run. I

654
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: don't know where it landed. But that's part of home

655
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 1: run derby is not as as to me how many,

656
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: but how far? Like that's really what it's about. And

657
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 1: if you hit it over four hundred and seventy five

658
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: feet then you get a bonus, you get bonus time. Yeah,

659
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: I'm a club. Yeah. I remember McGuire and with Griffy

660
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 1: at Boston, and I don't even know who won that one,

661
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,879
Speaker 1: but I remember McGuire hit one farther than I've ever seen. Yeah,

662
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 1: and they doctored up those baseballs. But they were putting

663
00:38:56,360 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 1: on a show that gets okay, well it's it's it's

664
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: an exhibition. But I was entertained by it far more

665
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 1: than I thought I was going to, even after Shohyutani

666
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: bout out all right, let me get to Gregg Popovich here.

667
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: He's the head coach of the Team USA squad that

668
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: lost to Australia last night, and he had a back

669
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: and forth. The reporter is Joe Varden from The Athletic

670
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,920
Speaker 1: and Joe will join us a little bit later on

671
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: to talk about this back and forth. But here is

672
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: coach Popovich. When you just mentioned, you know, blowing these

673
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: teams out. That's never happened, So I don't know where

674
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: you get that. Can I finish? Can I finish? Can

675
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 1: I finish my statement? Can I finish my statement? Are

676
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: you gonna let me finish my statement or not? So

677
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 1: you'll be quiet now while I talk and then I'll

678
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: listen to you. When you make statements about in the

679
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: past just blowing out these other teams. Number one, you

680
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 1: give no respect to the other teams. And I talked

681
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: to you last time about the same thing. We've had

682
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: very close games against four or five countries in all

683
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 1: these tournaments, so the good teams do not get blown out.

684
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 1: There are certain games that might happen in one of

685
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 1: the tournaments in the World Championship, in the Olympics, where

686
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: somebody gets blown out, but in general, nobody's blowing anybody

687
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: out for the good teams. So when you make a

688
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 1: statement like that, it's like you assume that's what's going on,

689
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 1: and that's incorrect. You know, I thought at the time

690
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 1: when they lost to Australia, Okay, it's not a big deal.

691
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 1: But hearing Greg Popovich speak the way he spoke last night,

692
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: I think it's more of a story here. I think

693
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 1: it's more of a it's a bigger deal because I

694
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: think normally you would say, hey, give them credit, you know,

695
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 1: we're still we don't have our full roster, and give

696
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: them credit. They played hard. Pop He gets defensive with

697
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: you know, Mike, my kind, my like you know the media,

698
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: but that's I understand these numbers. Your Team USA has

699
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 1: now lost as many exhibition games in the last three

700
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 1: days as they did in the previous twenty eight years,

701
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 1: having gone fifty four and two in exhibition games since

702
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: the pros start playing in nineteen ninety two. For Team USA.

703
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: He stat of the day, stat of the day comes

704
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: that what stat of the day kind of jumped the

705
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: gun there seton a little bit a little too excited

706
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 1: to get Yeah, apparently Joe Varden should have used that stat. Coach, Uh,

707
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: do you realize that in the last three days, Team

708
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 1: USA has lost as many exhibition games in the last

709
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:54,760
Speaker 1: twenty eight years? Can I finish? Will you let me finish?

710
00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:01,959
Speaker 1: You'd be quiet and then I'll that Utah. Will Team

711
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 1: USA be better? Yes they will. Could they lose tonight

712
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: to Argentina, Yes, absolutely, But once you get everybody there

713
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 1: with that roster, now they don't have big men. No,

714
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: they have some tall guys, but they don't have some

715
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: big guys. Ta talls not big yeah, bigs. Yeah. J

716
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 1: Billis calls them bigs. They they're talls. Um, you know,

717
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: so are they gonna have a couple of close moments.

718
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 1: Probably so, But yeah, I think this is a little

719
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 1: bigger deal than what people Nigeria was like, Wait, did

720
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 1: you now they lost to Nigeria? Yeah? But okay, now

721
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: you lost to Australia. Yeah. But if they lose to

722
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 1: Argentina tonight, do we go? Yeah? But yes, do you

723
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: still have to autographs of the NBA players the other

724
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: countries even after they win? Or that would be kind

725
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 1: of weird? Those days might be over. So yeah, I

726
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:01,760
Speaker 1: think so. Probably. I think Team USA wants to swap

727
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: jerseys with you know, could I get your jersey? No,

728
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna save it. I'm gonna save it to the

729
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:11,760
Speaker 1: gold medal around. Yeah, I'm a club. I mean Nigeria

730
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: had how many NBA players? A six? Yeah? Yo, Kafer

731
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 1: was on the squad. I don't think he played, but

732
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,839
Speaker 1: and they had NBA players I know. Remember we love

733
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,319
Speaker 1: that guy for like six months? You did? I did?

734
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:28,920
Speaker 1: He came on the show, he was awesome. Yeah, all right,

735
