16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 1: we are right now. We talked about this last night.

17
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: This was the game that the Brewers absolutely had to have.

18
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: Dodgers lead it right now two to one because Max

19
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 1: Munsey hit the ball about five feet further than he

20
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: did last night when it turned into a double play.

21
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: Making sure that hey, okay, good luck going to catch

22
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: this one. So now the Dodgers take their two to

23
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: one lead. They were three to one now and they

24
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: are now counting and hunting outs to go back home

25
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: up to zip in the NLCS, and you've got another

26
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: starter working deep. You didn't think so when you saw

27
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 1: that first pitch go flying the other way. No, not great,

28
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 1: exent cheerio, not great. And that was it. Six innings pitch,

29
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: just three hits thus far, five strikeouts. More importantly, only

30
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: seventy six pitches, a very efficient six innings for Yamamoto,

31
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: which means we don't have to see the bullpen necessarily

32
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: for a little while.

33
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: Yet.

34
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: Nah, you never know, though, you never so you never know. Hey, hey, look,

35
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: sometimes Dave Roberts can't resist who he is. But you know,

36
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: you know, Dave Roberts is like, okay, Dave Roberts is

37
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: like uh looping from Harry Potter, in which like, okay,

38
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: I know, I know I shouldn't turn into a were wolf, right,

39
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: I know it because my stuff gets out of control

40
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: and I don't know what happens after and and bad

41
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: things happen, but I just can't help myself. I got

42
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 1: I turned into a were wolf, and I get it.

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: You gotta watch out like that's Dave. I know I

44
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: shouldn't go to the bullpen as often as I do.

45
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: I can't help it. Yeah, but you can't. I mean

46
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: the film moon still goes up, but he's done. I mean,

47
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? I have to go to

48
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: the bullpen when the moon is out. I gotta go

49
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: to the bullpen like that's who they is. I know,

50
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: I know it, But it happens. The moon comes out

51
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 1: and I gotta go to the pen. I gotta bring

52
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: guys in. It's how it goes the kid. Uh. You

53
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: know if you if you touch that, it's gonna burn.

54
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: But you still want to find out. I mean might

55
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: not this time, right, Uh maybe not? Maybe maybe not,

56
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: but you never know. Hey, you keep playing with fire.

57
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: You know what they say, DJ, You're gonna get Corbyn burns.

58
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: So where we sit right now, top of the seventh inning,

59
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: Dodgers have runner at third with one out. Sho Hao

60
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: Tani is up, who is won for his last twenty three. Now,

61
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: this is the big thing we talked about this coming

62
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 1: into this series, the biggest thing for the Dodger. Yes,

63
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: we talk about the bullpen. We talk about a lot

64
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: of different things, but sho Hao Tani just doesn't look

65
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: comfortable right. He just doesn't look good at the plate.

66
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: He is opening up, he is waving at breaking. If

67
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: I'm a left handed pitcher, I throw him a sweeper

68
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: or something off the plate and he's gonna wait to

69
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: get it. And you can see that he's not mentally.

70
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: You can see that he is a little lost. He's

71
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: taking pitches he normally would take a swing out. He's

72
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: swinging at pitches he would normally take, and it's just

73
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: it's just not right. And he just took a swing

74
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: on a pitch that he looked like maybe he tweaked something,

75
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: because he didn't look one hundred percent healthy coming off

76
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: of that swing. He stepped out of the batter's box,

77
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: he kind of stood winced a little bit. So honestly,

78
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: I'm wondering health because we talked about it. Look, we said, hey,

79
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: look they need you need Otani in this round your

80
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: leadoff hit, or can't go, you know, oh for the

81
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: entire series, and you expect to win. But at this point,

82
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: seeing him and and and seeing that that swing he

83
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: just had there, I really wonder if there's certain it's

84
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: certain types of torque, certain types of swings that he

85
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: has that are causing him pain. And I'm not just

86
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: I'm playing doctor here, theorized trying. I'm trying to come

87
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: up with something that would explain show hal Tani being

88
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: one for his last twenty three physical versus mental and

89
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: pride right that we're trying to figure out what that

90
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: equation is and how big the coefficient is on either

91
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: parts of that.

92
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

93
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, he's he's waving and balls up and out

94
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: of the zone. We watched it, and now he just

95
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: gets a base hit. Uh, that scores another run. So

96
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: the Dodgers for one between the first and second basement. Uh.

97
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,919
Speaker 1: And you can see the exhale as he got the

98
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 1: first put it on here. Look, they gave him a

99
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: pitch he could handle in your on the inside part

100
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: of the plate, and Otani grounds it through the right side,

101
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: like this is a pitch that normally you give him

102
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: that type of fat pitch and he handles it and

103
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: it's in the corner or it's in the seats, but

104
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: it was enough for a base and bring the run in.

105
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: And nothing has been more entertaining the last couple of

106
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: days than the shots of Brewers fans following a bad

107
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: play that happens. I think that's become a really big

108
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: thing now in this playoff especially, I feel like there's

109
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: many more crowd shots of upset crying fans, especially other rounds. Yeah,

110
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: and then these sets got to be Midwestern. I'm just saying,

111
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: you got to be sad that that's the picture of

112
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: a sad Midwest. We're not back in grapes of wrath,

113
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: like you know, hey, the dust ball and all the crops, aren't.

114
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 1: You know, this is the early nineteen hundreds and we're

115
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: trying to find a way. And I don't know what's

116
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: going on, But the problem is that every person they've

117
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: decided to isolate would be the stereotypical farmer, the farmer

118
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: Sisconsin ide, which is to say that it's a middle

119
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: aged white male with a large beer and a large gut.

120
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: That's generally what they've been showing farmers in a perch

121
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 1: with a shotgun when the crows come. I got a shoe,

122
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: I got I mean like that, you gotta protect this

123
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: house man. Just weird, But this is that wrong. No,

124
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: I look on what I'm saying. I hated you wanted

125
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: a picture for early back in Grapes of wrath Man,

126
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 1: Henry Fonda sure would think the missing were the stirrups,

127
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: the other and the the overalls. The update you're stout there.

128
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: He's now two for whatever is two four four. That's

129
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: like justin Field's numbers for twenty four. No, no, no

130
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 1: gift the field minus ten was justin fields. Twenty four

131
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: is way more than But to punctuate that, you give

132
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: him credit because he didn't try to overswing, because that's

133
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: been the hallmark of even go back to the last

134
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: month of the regular season. Strikeout rate was up, and

135
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: he was trying to kill every pitch. And even earlier

136
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: you had in a bat that he waved at strike

137
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: three that was up and out of his zone. He

138
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 1: was still trying to murder the ball. And at the

139
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: one that he wins stat and stepped out of the

140
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: box like he was trying to swing for a nine

141
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: hundred foot home run, and that one he shortened his swing,

142
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,679
Speaker 1: just hit the ball through the through the right side

143
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: for the basin to score the run. Look, and that's

144
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: the whole thing is that when you're injured, if you

145
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: are injured, being able to know what you can do

146
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: is the bead look. And if that's the case with Otani, Hey,

147
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: I don't have enough that I can. I can put

148
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: this in the seats, but I get a sharp ground ball,

149
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: or I could I you know, I'm gonna It's the old,

150
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: the old adage of hey, choking up one two strikes, right,

151
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: it makes you understand, Hey, you choke up with two

152
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: strikes and you taught that little league, which is stupid,

153
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,239
Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter. But the whole philosophy is choking

154
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: up with two strikes. Hey, protect me, you know. Protect

155
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: You got to know stuff. It's close, and you got

156
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: to concentrate on whatever you thought you're gonna do in

157
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: that at bet. You got to take down your expectations

158
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: now because you got to put the ball in play, right,

159
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: You got to find a way to get the ball

160
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: and play, hit it hard somewhere, and you take down,

161
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: you tamp down your expectations. And that's kind of what

162
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: you do when you're injured, is that, Hey, I'm up there.

163
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,119
Speaker 1: I can't do normal things, but I can do close

164
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: to normal things. So if a double down the line

165
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: becomes a single through the right side, that's okay. If

166
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: a home run in the second deck becomes a single

167
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: or a double off the wall. Okay, that's kind of

168
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: what it is. And I, honestly, I really wonder if

169
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: that's it with Otani because that certainly would explain why

170
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: he's been struggling so much and why he looks he

171
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: just looks out of sorts at the plate. Well, but

172
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: just do it to put it in the larger scope baseball,

173
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: and hopefully we see a return to what you and

174
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 1: I and we've seen him bunting, which if you can

175
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: execute great, most of the time you can't, so don't

176
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 1: do it. But all all that's say Scott Harrison is

177
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: his exit with the Tigers, just kind of talking about

178
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: making contact instead of strikeouts. Yep. Right, And for Otani,

179
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: once he been doing he's been swinging through balls strikeouts.

180
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: That's not helping anything, right, There's no pressure. It's like

181
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: you know, soccer, hockey, whatever, Shoot the ball towards the net, right,

182
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: make the goalie do something. You have no idea how

183
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: they're going to handle it, how the defense is going

184
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: to react, et cetera. Same thing in Major League Baseball.

185
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: We watched it with the pressure play last week with

186
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: the Phillies. What should have been a Hey, what do

187
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: you do with the ball when it's hit to you

188
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: became a series clinching play. Yeah, right, but it's it's

189
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: but if you don't put the ball in play, it

190
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. And we've watched so many batters that it's

191
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: it's like, hey, that's fine, it's three outcome. It's like, no,

192
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: you've got to you still have to put the ball

193
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 1: in play. Well, and that's the overall thing to to

194
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: take a bigger point about Otani, right, Freddie Freeman strikes out,

195
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: Dodgers go to the bottom of the seventh inning with

196
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: a four to one lead, Like, here's Otani again making

197
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: the right play, you know, having the right at bat.

198
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: This is what I can do. If you look again

199
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: wincing after that that that swing and foul off. But yes,

200
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: when you get a pitch, you can. I would not

201
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: throw the ball on the inside part of the plate.

202
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what that was all about. That's a

203
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: gift for Otani, but the fact that, hey, okay, I

204
00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: know what I need to do here, and I got

205
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 1: to make sure I get this run in, and I

206
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: get the run in. It's not just the Yankees, not

207
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: just the lazy Yankees. But overall, and but the Yankees

208
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: get all the attention because of you know, the narrative

209
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: of the last year being they're not good fundamentally. They

210
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: don't run the bases. Anybody will tell you don't run

211
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: the base as well, they don't do. But just think

212
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: about all the different bad fundamental baseball that we have

213
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: seen throughout the baseball playoffs, not limited to just the Yankees, right,

214
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: not limited just ti Oscar Hernandez and his base running

215
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: adventures yesterday, but there's all from different series. It's wow,

216
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: I can't believe. This is something that you have to know.

217
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: You can't do this. You can't what is happening here?

218
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: And you see it throughout the different series, and there's

219
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: different moments here and there you go, oh wow, okay,

220
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: that's that's a moment where you know this bunt rotation

221
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: needs to be here, or this is a moment where

222
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: if you're stealing second base, you know you're taking the

223
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: bat out of the hands of the person you want

224
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: to bat. So many different things that just go anti

225
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: fundamental baseball that I wonder if it's just the Yankees

226
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: are the the poster boys for this, because as time

227
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: goes on, like you see it. Wow, that's really not good. Right,

228
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: Like we we talked about the Taoska Hernandez obviously not

229
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: knowing the tag up rule last night in the game,

230
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: but he had the bad base running play the play

231
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: before we should have scored in the base hit to

232
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: right field and and he didn't see the ball get down. Like, dude,

233
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: you've been in baseball, you know where that when the

234
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: ball was off the bat, where that's gonna go. You

235
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,319
Speaker 1: know that that's gonna be something the outfielder gets. You know,

236
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: that's gonna be something the outfielder doesn't get. Like you

237
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:32,839
Speaker 1: have to know that he should have scored on that,

238
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: right This is a ball that is hit to the

239
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: right side of second base. This is the ball you

240
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: got to score on that, and he doesn't. And it's

241
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: you know, it's a fundamental play. And not just fundamental

242
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: like dropping fly balls as well, or you know, not

243
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: cutting off the ball. They're all tasks. There's just so

244
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: many Taoska Hernandez things we can say, But how many

245
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: how many of those equal homer? No, that's it. That's

246
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: the thing that we got, Like how many fly balls

247
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: can he drop? What is that? What can he even it?

248
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: Out with with a home run, right with base running

249
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: mistakes evened out by a home run. X base running

250
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: h plus x fielding equals one home Run's call like

251
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: I gotta say, Caul can't kuon find out, Like I

252
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: gotta say, he was on and soda there plays room

253
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: three five eight? He is he, he is there, he is.

254
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: You gonna say room seven six five. See that's who

255
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: it was? Your line that was seven six five seven

256
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: six five. Yeah, that's how much money he got, seven

257
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: or sixty five. I'm just impressed you were able to

258
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: do that backwards seven six five seven six six seven

259
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: six five six seven six seven six seven. Uh. So

260
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: I would say he's operating the deficit last night, but

261
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: now tonight, now he's back. He's back at even, Like

262
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: I would say he's back at zero s now to

263
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: ask her Hernandez, Like he dropped the fly ball, then

264
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: he hit the home run. Okay, he's even. But now

265
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: the big base running uh fiascos of last night, but

266
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: now tonight, so I think he's he's probably zero s.

267
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: They won the game, Yeah I know, but I'm saying,

268
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 1: but the point is about about me a story. If

269
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: they lose, No, the point is about fundamental baseball throughout

270
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: the play not being what it should be. How many

271
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 1: times did you watch that live? I'm just using Tasker

272
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: Hernandez as an example because it's so easy. How many

273
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: times did you hate watch that highlight? Ah? I didn't hate.

274
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: Oh the best part was going home and showing Zoe

275
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: the highlight, which she is like the ball hit off

276
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: the wall? I go, yeah, you would think they would

277
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: know that. Oh, and she was why didn't he tag up?

278
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: I go, I know she was, he didn't. You just

279
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: have to weigh I said, Zoe, you're saying you could

280
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: host the show now for me, because you're saying everything

281
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: that we said when we came au the answers, Oh,

282
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: that was a big mistake. Oh and the and who

283
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: was that that didn't run the third isa? That was

284
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: Will Smith? She was, oh that was that was just

285
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: a band of mistake because he had time to understand

286
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: what he needed to do. I go, yeah, yeah, yeah,

287
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: all about it was supposed to be the smartest guy alive. Yeah,

288
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: because their catcher certainly was, well, Contramp is he slapping

289
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: Chris Rock? Yeah, Contraps was the only one that knew

290
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: everything going on. He knew the force out here and

291
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: the play to third base, like he's the only one

292
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: that knew veritable in these play But in terms of

293
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: you know, baseball one on one, I mean and farm

294
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: the old rule of thumb, it's the runs you score

295
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: after the sixth with a lead that gets you to

296
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: the winners circle. So you got your base hit RBI

297
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: for sho Hao Tani coming up to make it a

298
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: four to one lead. Yamamoto's still dealing bottom seven exit

299
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 1: out about a Fresco exit swallowing double of more. On

300
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: Game two of the NLCS, Dodgers win. This looks like

301
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a sweep, and the Dodgers can. We're

302
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: gonna have double sweeps right now. Dodgers Mariners World Randy

303
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: tickets looking them up the entire World Series on the West.

304
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: What you thinks I'm about that? Yeah? Nine hundred bucks, right,

305
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,520

Speaker 1: all all of his all of his what what put

360
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: stuff in the bank, all of his base running and

361
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: what and fielding errors, all of those mistakes or the

362
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: home run here and yes it would put stuff in

363
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: the bank, like it would be okay. Now he could

364
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,199
Speaker 1: have another base running gaff den it's in credit, or

365
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: drop a fly ball and it's home run right now.

366
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: If he hits another home run, then he then he

367
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: banks it then like the next time he drops the

368
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: fly ball. You can't say anything, what did he do

369
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: to your fan? What did he do to you? I'm

370
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: just saying, dude, the dude can't do anything but swing

371
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: the bat like he can't run the bases, he can't,

372
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: he can't field. Yeah, it's only a story if they lose.

373
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is he's looking to bank goodwill. Now

374
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 1: like it because the next five ball he drops, people

375
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: gonna be all over. But it's a home run. Here

376
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 1: was him saying he affed up. Not good enough for you? Well,

377
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: because well, okay enough. You know what, when you're a

378
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,479
Speaker 1: major leaguer, you have to know the tag up rule

379
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: because I knew it when I was like, you know what,

380
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: don't he did own it. They won the game, like

381
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: he if he if they'd lost, then then then we

382
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: have a bigger conversation. In the end, you won the

383
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: bullpen got out of it, and you got you got home.

384
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: Blake trying and did his job for one day. Dave

385
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: Roberts faith and Blake trying paid off. And what I

386
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: do love is they're just showing scene after seeing a

387
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: Murphy in the dugout and I want to catch him

388
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,399

389
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: of things, you know, say my name kind of moments.

390
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: Because he tried to disparage the Dodgers, saying they had

391
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 1: no idea who they were, tried to play the little

392
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 1: guy get the best record, best record in the league. No,

393
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: the Dodgers have no idea who you are. They don't

394
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: do any advanced scouting all. They just show up. Yeah

458
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: know it's gonna be tough sledding in the game. The

459
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: under is what's gonna hit? Oh yeah, yeah, you get

461
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 1: a picture of Rogers, picture of Flacco, picture of icy

462
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: hot or some kind of bomb. I'm in for that.

463
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

464
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 1: They're not an official sponsor of the the NFL, but

465
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: it is a good line. And I like rodgers response

466
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: kind of talking about Hey, the old guys and what

467
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: do I always say, The longer these guys play, the younger,

468
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: I feel right, so play another five years. I don't

469
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: know that you can. Joe Flacco's arms still seems fine.

470
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 1: Sy're winging in around yeah, and Aaron Rodgers, look, they're

471
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: in they're in the Catbirds seat. Man, I'm glad you

472
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: brought that up, because here's the thing. I can already

473
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: tell you know where I'm going with this. I can

474
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: already tell all season, I'm gonna keep saying the same thing.

475
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: I am not believing in the Steelers because they're not good.

476
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: They play in a craptastic division. They're not very good

477
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: at anything, right, But Mike Tomlin's at the point where

478
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,199
Speaker 1: he's feeling chesty because he's like, hey, I don't know

479
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,919
Speaker 1: why you would trade Joe Flacco within the division to

480
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: the to the Bengals like that. I don't know, I

481
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 1: don't know why you would do that. But hey, okay,

482
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: they like, well, whoa dude, slow your roll. But I

483
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: always tell when Tomlin's getting chesty and he's feeling good,

484
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: he insults the media. Guys are annoying me today. I

485
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: don't know why. I don't know why you would make

486
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: that trade. The Steelers are not good. I'm tough. The

487
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 1: Steelers are not good. They don't throw the ball well,

488
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 1: they don't run the ball well. Their defense is league

489
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 1: average at best. This is not all the steel No,

490
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: their defense is league average. Look at all the metrics.

491
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 1: They do nothing well except beat bad teams. And they

492
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: happen to play this year in a division where all

493
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: the teams are bad. But everything fell apart. That's not good.

494
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: That's here, the last man standing. No, there's something to

495
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: be said for that. It's like, look, if everybody else

496
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: is felled around you, they're sick. No, no, it doesn't

497
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: make badart. And you can still show up to work.

498
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: You're the king. No, no, no, no, So right now

499
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: the Steelers are okay, put the ground up. They're not

500
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: just because Joe Burrow got hurt. Okay, it's a it's

501
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: a cheap crown that's made out of cardboard that falls apart,

502
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: that has like pieces glued to it in January. That

503
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: may be the case, but right now they are standing dull.

504
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: But they're not good, not good. They're no, they're not

505
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: even good. They're not winning game. No, doesn't winning game good.

506
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 1: You can be bad and win. They're showing you. They're

507
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 1: showing you can be bad and win.

508
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:28,159

00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: falling apart. We got the Colts, you beat the Jagure terrible.

517
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 1: The best team you played the Patriots, the Seahawks you

523
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: the Hallway game for the last three weeks, and it

524
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 1: actually really rivaled that you should said it instead of

525
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,359
Speaker 1: the do you remember the twenty first that they should

526
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 1: they should sink it up with the old Genesis classic

527
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 1: I can dance. Yeah, in two months, I've gone from

528
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: he's the guy, he's the guy you wanted. Yes, he's

529
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: coming in his culture, and now I can't even see

530
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: him finishing the year. Yeah, it's not even finish. It's

531
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: so fun. It's because you held him up in both

532
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: of your hands over here. You know, he was great.

533
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,959
Speaker 1: I loved him. You were like he was Simba, Yeah,

534
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: and that was that was raffiki hold them up, I

535
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: mean like I held him up like he was the

536
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: key here. But now I could tell the job is

537
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,239
Speaker 1: too much for him. The job that the decisions that

538
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 1: he makes and things is that you could tell the

539
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: job is. He couldn't do basic math. He couldn't throw

540
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: a hail Mary from the fifty yard line in the

541
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: last play of the first half. We're just not going

542
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: to do it. It's kicked to fifty eight arena. That's

543
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: not I get. I get Garrett Wilson. Why he's so

544
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: mad man. I mean, look, we got some justin field

545
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 1: stuff to get to. But the Steelers they're not good.

546
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: What do we have to get to They're not good.

547
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: I'm done talking about the Jets right now. That's what

548
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: I mean. Is I mean, you know the.

549
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 6: One who just teas more justin fields. Yeah, ever, maybe

550
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 6: you do need more justin fields. Maybe justin fields. It's

551
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 6: gonna be meeting you on the fields.

552
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: But look, it's your heart rate, just Steelers not being anybody.

553
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: You eat the Vikings with a backup quarterback and you

554
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: barely won that, and the and the Browns are terrible.

555
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: You're not good. You're not a good football team, but

556
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: the rest of your division is terrible. So successful, yes,

557
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: but good? No, I can point how many bands do

558
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: you know they're successful that their music is terrible? But

559
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: don't know. But it's a matter that's a matter of opinion.

560
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: Steelers are terrible. No, No, but the music I mean matter.

561
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: I can tell you when a band's terrible. To me,

562
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 1: you are a band's terrible. I had plenty of bands

563
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: I don't like. Time sold you tons of records like, hey,

564
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 1: isn't that great. I'm like, no, I'd have been enough

565
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 1: for me and our guy in the world, because I

566
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: would have said, yeah, your album, it's all a bunch

567
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: of filler songs. You have better songs. We'll see you

568
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: when you come back. Okay, thanks for coming, Thanks for it.

569
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: Don't don't don't. Don't pollute the world with bad music.

570
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: Okay's enough. There's enough music to trying to listen to

571
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 1: out there. What the bottom line is, can you sell it?

572
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: And right now you can sell the Steelers are They

573
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: can't sell the Steelers being good. Rogers is not good.

574
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: They don't run the ball. They don't. Oh, look at

575
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 1: he's found something with DK Metcalf. He threw him one pass.

576
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: He was wide open. Okay, they're not good, They're not

577
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: gonna been. You still got to make that anywhere there.

578
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: You had a lot of guys open your guys. You

579
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 1: didn't get it there, Okay, just because I watched my

580
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 1: team not able to execute easy plays offensively and justin

581
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: field any play, No, well, no, we run the ball. Okay,

582
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: sometimes we run the ball step to Breeze Hall every

583
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: once in a while and that works. By the way,

584
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: you want to talk about the reviews of that guy

585
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: anonymous sources in terms of, well he's gone by the time,

586
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: how much is that is? We want to have no

587
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: market and we really want to deflate it versus what

588
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: they really feel about the guy. No, look, Breesce Hall

589
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,959
Speaker 1: is gonna be traded by the deadline. Sure, But I mean,

590
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: but the Steelers, it's it's none of No things they

591
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: do are great or even above league average. But again,

592
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: I don't have to believe they're the beneficiaries of bad football.

593
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,479
Speaker 1: That Burrow got hurt. The Browns are the Browns, and

594
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: the Ravens went from this is the best Ravens roster

595
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: we've ever seen to Hey, they're going to be competing

596
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: for the number one overall picking the draft like it's

597
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 1: just bad, And I get that they're for that. That's great.

598
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 1: You're four one schedule for the walk around. Here, tell me.

599

00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: you're not good for anything. You're not good for it.

606
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: If you were in the top twenty five in college football,

607
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: you would move down because, yeah, your wins aren't that impressive.

608
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: They were just going down and didn't yet. But the

609
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: top twenty five said, those people throw darts out on board, up, down, down,

610
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: pick numbers out of a hat. Yeah, this should be

611
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: number twelve this week. We've seen this. His Steelers are

612
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: not looked icy. Hot ball is great. It's gonna be fun.

613
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: I heard it. I can't wait. I hope there's fantasy points.

614
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: I don't think there will be, but I hope there's

615
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: forty three and a half is the over under. But

616
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: the Steelers are gonna win again, and it's gonna be all.

617
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: The Steelers are five to one, I'm gonna be They're terrible.

618
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: They are terrible. I feel like like in uh, a'mi

619
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: Dais when Salieri's like, I'm a day All. That's a

620
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: bad example because IAmA DAAs is a genius. But I

621
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, don't don't you all don't like

622
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: Kathy Bates. Don't you all have amnesia? He didn't get

623
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: out of the cock of dudey car watching the same

624
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: thing I'm watching. The Steelers are just not good, man,

625
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: They're not no well, I mean chesty is what's kind

626
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: of got me off fine, And I'm like, oh now,

627
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 1: he's like, I don't know why the other teams are

628
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 1: making mood. Yeah, you know what, you got war wins

629
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: than the Jets. Dude, everybody has you know what. But

630
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: in terms of the thing with Andrew Berry, he said

631
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: the quiet part out loud. I like that he put

632
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: his name on it because it did make no sense. Hey,

633
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 1: it's our opening day, guy, Let's trade him in division now.

634
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 1: If you could tell me legitimately they got no other

635
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: team with all of the quarterbacks that have been that

636
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: have gotten hurt or have proven that they suck, that

637
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: no other team showed the remote interest in Joe Flackham

638
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: And why you didn't go get somebody else's really beyond me. Yeah,

639
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: but I think it's O. There's other quarterbacks, but it's

640
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: but it's tomless Tomlin and he gives us gifts. That's

641
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: what he does. Yeah, he's feeling chasty. I'm like, you know,

642
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: you don't your team is not good? How chesty was

643
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: he last year? Middle of seed Russell Wilson. I knew

644
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Oh, very quiet. That's why I

645
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: make a lot of money. When Russell Wilson did nothing

646
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: and you had to jettison the guy. But he was

647
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 1: your guy, right always. He's my guy. This is why

648
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: I do what I do. And yeah, okay, well what

649
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: happened my Tom? And all of a sudden the Steelers

650
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: are not his They're no good. They're no good. They're

651
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: gonna lose Thursday. They're not good. Okay, Hey, i'd be

652
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: up for that. I can tell you what there was

653
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 1: wearing no clothes. I would tell you that. Wow. Yeah,

654
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: usually he's got new clothes time, not for what's trending

655
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: in the wide world of points. He made him nude

656
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: from a guy who's been called the Emperor of Fox

657
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Ow huh. He often walks around with no

658
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: clothes on, telling everybody, don't you like what I'm wearing?

659
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: It's Steve Disager and.

660
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 3: A Laurel wreath on my head.

661
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: Actually done this Laurel and Hardy handshake.

662
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, Laurel and Hardy kind of describes the show. Yeaes

663
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 3: Dodgers are leading five to one at Milwaukee, going to

664
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 3: the bottom of the eighth inning, trying to go up

665
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 3: two games to none in the National League Championship Series.

666
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 3: The Dodger starting pitching continues to be phenomenal the last

667
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 3: two and a half months, but specifically the past week

668
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 3: these last three starts Yamamota tonight, Snell last night, and

669
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 3: in last week's clincher against the Phillies. Glass now the

670
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 3: la starting pitchers. The batting average against them is ninety

671
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 3: five in these last three starts, and the team era

672
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 3: in this postseason so far for the starting pitchers, I

673
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 3: should say one point six to zero. Yoshinobu Yama Moto

674
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 3: allowed a home run on his first pitch tonight at

675
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 3: Milwaukee to the Brewers' leadoff man Jackson Curio. Since then,

676
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 3: Milwaukee's offense is two for twenty four. Yamamoto with seven

677
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 3: innings five strikeouts, eighty nine pitches thrown the Dodgers. If

678
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 3: they win tonight, that would mean two road victories to

679
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 3: start the LCS, just as in the American League Championship Series,

680
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 3: Seattle began with two road victories in Toronto. This has

681
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 3: only happened one other time. Nineteen seventy was the last

682
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 3: time that the road team in each league won the

683
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 3: first two games in the League Championship Series to start

684
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 3: things out. And back then it was just a best

685
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 3: of five and LCS was a new thing, and up

686
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 3: until the late sixties there were no divisions, There were

687
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 3: no playoffs at all. You just finished first in the

688
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 3: league went straight to the World Series.

689
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: I don't like this new fangled League Championship Series that

690
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: they have. Why should I have to play another series

691
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: when I have the best record in the National league.

692
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 3: The sounds actually like Larry King for years. What is

693
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 3: this LCSD at playoffs? It's the playoffs? Why payoffs? Why

694
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 3: do we have to play a team from the junior circuit?

695
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: We should just be the champions already. We had quite

696
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 3: a pitching matchup with the starters tonight. Yamamoto had the

697
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 3: best era on the road in the regular season of

698
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 3: any qualified starting pitcher. Milwaukee's as Freddie Peralta had the

699
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 3: best home era among qualified starters, and it was one

700
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 3: point seven to seven at.

701
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: Home for the season.

702
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 3: He gave up two home runs in his five and

703
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 3: two thirds, a solo shot to ta Oscar Hernandez, who's

704
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 3: up to four homers this postseason. Dodger record is eight

705
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 3: Corey Seeger for a postseason. By the way, Max Mountsey

706
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 3: did set a Dodger record career postseason homers. He hit

707
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 3: one out to center, a solo shot. That's fourteen postseason

708
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 3: home runs for him as a Dodger, passing Seeger and

709
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 3: Justin Turner who had thirteen. And by the way, the

710
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 3: TV ratings have been great for the baseball postseason. The

711
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 3: Dodgers clincher, which was a three PM game in La

712
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 3: last week. Again it's the Phillies five point six million people,

713
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 3: and then the Brewers clincher at home five and a

714
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 3: half million viewers. And then we had the opener of

715
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 3: Seattle's win at Toronto this week over five million viewers

716
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 3: plus another five mill or so in Canada, and what

717
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 3: you called the greatest game of the season, that clincher

718
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 3: against the Tigers for the Seattle Mariners Friday night on

719
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 3: Fox TV. The extra inning game eight point six million viewers.

720
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 3: In other words, about the same TV audience that the

721
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 3: Oklahoma Texas football game had the next day, and that

722
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 3: was by far the highest rated college football game on Saturday.

723
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: And no one watched Young Sheldon on Friday night. No

724
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 1: one watched that for.

725
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 3: In a while since we brought that up on the show.

726
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 3: Just for the record, the Alcs off tonight. Mariners lead

727
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 3: two games to none against Toronto. Game three is in

728
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:52,280
Speaker 3: Seattle Wednesday night on FS one. Among the eight NHL games,

729
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 3: Montreal and overtime beat Seattle, Washington and overtime beat Tampa Bay.

730
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 3: The Dallas Mavericks gave coach Jason Kidd a multi year extension,

731
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 3: and Yukon is preseason number one on the women's basketball

Speaker 2: Yeah.

745
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: Update from the NLCS game. Two Dodgers lead at five

746
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: to one. They have runners at second and third with

747
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 1: nobody out of bat in the top of the ninth inning.

748
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: The big news is, according to reports from the game,

749
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: Yoshinoba Yamamoto will start the ninth inning and if he

750
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 1: runs into trouble then it'll be Alex Vessia most likely,

751
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 1: but we could see a complete game in the MLB playoffs,

752
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 1: a complete game, no might cry. Also, Freddy Freeman just

753
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: took the second like base it back up the box right.

754
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 1: Betts goes to third and Freeman hustling gets all the

755
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: way to second and then does his dance in the

756
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 1: direction of the center fielder, who lazily got to the

757
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: ball like. He didn't turn back to the dugout like

758
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,319
Speaker 1: they normally do. He did the full wiggle dance Dude

759
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: in the direction of the center fielder. When you hit

760
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: a walk off Grand Slam in the World Series. You

761
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: can do what you want. Yeah, I think I think

762
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: they didn't wear it at some point in the future

763
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: in bat I think Munsey was actually waving to the

764
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 1: crowd after his home run too. So it seems a

765
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 1: little see little Chippy today, Little Chippy Murphy got any

766
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 1: pancakes He's gonna pull out to try to save the

767
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: Save the day five to one Dodgers bases loaded. Now

768
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 1: after an intentional walk to Will Smith top of the

769
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 1: ninth inning, they are three outs away from going up

770
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: to Zip in the NLCS. This brings us to the

771
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 1: Play the Day, brought to you by Iraq for over

772
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 1: forty years, tire rack'smen uping customers find the right tires

776
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 1: is the way tire buying should be. Well because the

777
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 1: first time we're able to do this, I think it

778
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 1: only appropriate. Skinny Luca, you get to be the play

779
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: of the day. Some guys who are not playing this

780
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 1: evenings Luca back and forth. Now watch good luck with that,

781
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: and he's gonna score one. He had no chance against

794
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,719

00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: at old pictures, he's pudgy. Yeah no, I know, but

796
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 1: he had great heights. I mean, look, you find your

797
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: motivation where you are. But people weren't wrong. You know,

798
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say people wrong. But so, okay, you thought

818
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:26,560

824
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: is what I'm gonna focused on this week. If I'm here,

825
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: like oh, he sounded like Richard Daily back in the

826
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 1: day when they were all sorts of random deaths. If

827
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: I if I lose Fran Brown to Penn State because

828
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 1: of you, We're gonna fight like. We're gonna fight This

829
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: is the first good coach you've had in like fifteen years.

830
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 1: We're gonna fight like and you have no say. We're

831
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: gonna fight like. We are gonna absolute much coaching as

832
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: he done. Since you're doesn't matter. Back went down, doesn't man,

833
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? We beat Clems and everything

834
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: was great. Of course Angelly Tears is a killing. Yeah,

835
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: but as soon as Angelly goes down, I mean a

836
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: whole lot of innovation. When you lose the leading passer

837
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:16,919
Speaker 1: in the country. I think you're gonna take a step.

838
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: You can take a hit a little bit. You're gonna

839
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 1: take a hit. That's not a step to take a

840
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: hill fell down a way take it. You're like the

841
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 1: guy that we always talk about in the horror movie

842
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,760
Speaker 1: that gives in the wheelchair going down the stairs. Gonna

843
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: take a hit. Man, it's gonna happen. When that goes on,

844
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna take it. Suddenly can't play football there after.

845
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 1: When you lose it. It's not like it's not like

846
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 1: we have seventeen guys. It's not like we're Alabama where

847
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: we have five five star guys a quarterback, and it's

848
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: just this guy's gonna play. What the rest of it?

849
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 1: When you lose Suddenly they stopped learning, you know, how

850
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,399
Speaker 1: to play football. When you lose the star quarterback. I'm

851
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,399
Speaker 1: sorry it's gonna affect you, but I want to say

852
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: that because this is where you see this stuff now

853
00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 1: with the polls out now, and it is absolutely insane.

854
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,280
Speaker 1: Nothing makes sense. Good teams that were good got bad,

855
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 1: now they're good again, like Alabama, Notre Dame Texas. I

856
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: don't know if the best teams are all that guy

857
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 1: have to If Ohio State and Miami are that good,

858
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 1: you have Indiana, Texas Tech and Ole Miss at the top.

859
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: This Penn State story. Two weeks ago they were playing

860
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 1: an overtime against Oregon and now James Franklin's fired. Man,

861
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: this is one of those years to just sit back

862
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 1: and enjoy the most bonkers and bananas college football season

863
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 1: since two thousand and seven when it was Missouri and

864
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: Kansas and Pittsburgh and West Virginia coming down to the

865
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 1: end of the season, which was the most entertaining college

866
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 1: football season we've seen in the last twenty five years.

867
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: This is that kind of just enjoy the bonkers and

868
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: zaniness and unpredictable aspect of this season because that's what

869
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 1: college was. That's it, right, Signetti is now on that

870
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: short list of great coaches. You look at Landing, You've

871
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: got Ohio State still ruling the day, and Beck clearly

872
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: he made the right move. So all this is chaos

873
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: every week, Love it Man Positivity Tuesday, that's right. Coming

874
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: up next, Big Cowboys story on the
