24
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: hour is from baseball. We'll start out in Baltimore. Now,

25
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: the July fourth holiday, you're coming up at the end

26
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: of the week. The calendar has flipped over. It's today's

27
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: July second. If you're scoring it home. So we are

28
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: less than a month away from the July thirty first

29
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: trade deadline, which means you must line up who's going

30
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: where and which teams are selling and which teams are buying. Now,

31
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Orioles, we can all agree the Baltimore Orioles

32
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: are the most disappointing team in baseball. They were supposed

33
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: to be a playoff contender, and they were in the

34
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: plus back to back years. Now Baltimore, the Orioles find

35
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: themselves ten games under five hundred, I believe it is now,

36
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: rather than hovering around ten or more games under five hundred,

37
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: seven games out of the final wild card berth in

38
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: the American League. And have you heard the message from

39
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: the front office? Perhaps not so. The GM Mike Elias,

40
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: who's got his DNA with the cheating. Asstros mich Elias

41
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: spoke with the reporters recently, he made it clear that

42
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: the Orioles, he said, are hoping to contend they're ten

43
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: games under five hundred, but they're preparing for both sides

44
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: of the trade deadline. Quote. People are making their preparations.

45
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: They understand that we're not committed to a path yet,

46
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: the oriole windbag said, but we're doing preparation in both

47
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: directions and have an understanding where that might go close quote.

48
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: So that is what's known as the money quote. So

49
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: let us discuss the question the GM Mike Olias saying

50
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: that the Orioles are not committed to a path for

51
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: the upcoming trade deadline yet, how does that vibe with you?

52
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: So I've got Las Vegas neon sign, all right, Las

53
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: Vegas style neon sign. We've got cyber gangsters, paradise, and oatmeal,

54
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and

55
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: we are going to make a rubber ducky, which is

56
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: what Michael Leprechaun had with him when he walked out

57
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: of the building. He was carrying a grown man in

58
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: a Leprechaunt shirt with a rubber ducky. He had that

59
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: it squeaked. All right. So my first thought here in

60
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: terms of you know, we don't know what we're gonna do.

61
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: You know, the ools are confused and all that. No,

62
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: no they're not. There's no confusion at all. Don't kid yourself.

63
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: The ools know exactly what they're gonna do. Baltimore is

64
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: setting the table. They're getting the gasoline, they're getting the

65
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: matchbook ready, and it's burn, baby, burn. They are gonna

66
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: have a fire sale. And it's even like playing poker, right,

67
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: like any savvy poker player sitting on a full house,

68
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: they're pretending they're still deciding whether they're all in or not.

69
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 1: I got a full house, but I'm maybe I'm not

70
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: going on. Please all right this we're not committed to

71
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: a path yet. Dance from the GM Mike Elias there

72
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: in Baltimore is comedy goal, it's laughable. It's also the

73
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: classic front office maneuvering that we see this time of

74
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: the year. If you've been around a few years, you

75
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: know this. You don't tip your hand before the auction starts.

76
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: You don't announce before you're going to auction. You create tension,

77
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: you create uncertainty, and you create mystery. That way, you

78
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 1: don't just get people who are buying your product, you

79
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: get people who are bidding on your product. It's rather obviously.

80
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: The O's are preparing the Las Vegas style Neon sign

81
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: out in front of Cameron Yards, and it says price

82
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: to sell, price to sell. Now, not everything's gonna get traded.

83
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: You can't trade everything, trade most everything though, right if

84
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: you most of the secondary players, you're not gonna trade

85
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: the front line guys. But that's it. And you know,

86
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: if you're the Orioles, you got the usual suspect, the Dodgers,

87
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: the Mets, the Red Sox, the Agante's, the teams that

88
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: are either in contention or should be in contention, that

89
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: are desperate for help. And so you've got that in

90
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: your back pocket. And if they if they stink like

91
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: they have so far this yeah, I mean, listen, may

92
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: the Ols win ten in a row before the trade deadline,

93
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: we can revisit this. But the Orioles, they did that

94
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: they're a contender. When you're ten games under five hundred,

95
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: you're not a contender, right, And they'll trade. They'll begin

96
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: by trading expiring contracts or players that are older and

97
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: things like that. But don't before. It's not so much

98
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: a strategy for the Orioles, right, it's it's theater, is

99
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: what it is here. It's the Donald Trump book, Art

100
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: of the Deal, you know, baseball style and all that. Now, meanwhile,

101
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: we have a fan put on time out. We go

102
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: to the Valley of the Sun, where the Arizona Diamondbacks

103
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: have said bye bye. They announced that that fan that

104
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: interfered with a live ball in the game back on

105
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: Monday against the Higan Days, that that fan has been dismissed.

106
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: That same fan, for the last several years has been

107
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: involved in trying to catch balls in the outfield that

108
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: ended up up either being fair balls or foulball. Not

109
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: foul balls, but fair balls are in play. And there's

110
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: a whole sizzle reel of this Gibbroni doing his thing. Well,

111
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: he's been banned from attending Diamondback games for the remainder

112
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty five MLB season. And this is

113
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: the second fan who's been banned from baseball this season

114
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: because of the Diamondbacks. Coutell Marte famously had a breakdown

115
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: at a rather benign comment and the Diamondbacks. You would

116
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: have thought he was told the worst thing in the world.

117
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: They banned the White Sox banned the fan because Marte

118
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: overreacted and all that stuff. Well, now this fan has

119
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: been banned. So during Monday's game, the fan interfered with

120
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: a hit from San Francisco third basement Christian Costs in

121
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: the eighth inning. He reached over the outfield wall sitting

122
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: out in left center field, reached over the wall, caught

123
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: the live ball with his club. So they went to

124
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: the replay and it was initially ruled the home run.

125
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: They went to the expedited replay review and determined that

126
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: it was a ground rule double. So question, why why

127
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: did the Diamondbacks decide to ban the fan for the

128
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: rest of the twenty twenty five season for interfering with

129
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: a live ball. I know it's happened a few times,

130
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: but why now? Why? Now? Is this a bannable situation

131
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: for the Diamondbacks. So now we have the glove Gestapo

132
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: that has arrived on the scene here and this is

133
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: like an international crime, international crime? What are you doing?

134
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 1: And I would say what in the wild? As Jackie

135
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: Slater fams, what in orld? Like? This guy's a serial offender,

136
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: That's what they're saying, well, serial offender, he's like the

137
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 1: Barry Bonds of interfering with batted balls in the outfield.

138
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: So what's supposed to happen if you're sitting and this

139
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: guy obviously he knows, she's strategically sitting in the outfield

140
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: because he knows there's a certain amount of balls every

141
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: year that are hit in the power alley and a

142
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 1: lot of the home runs are hit there. So he's

143
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: sitting there because he wants to get home runs. So

144
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: you're in the front row, you've got your glove, and

145
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: the ball is hit, you're in the front row, it's

146
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: heading towards you are You're gonna just sit there and

147
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: not move. You're like a guard at Buckingham Palace and

148
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: you just freeze and you don't do any Come on,

149
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: which was to lock this person up? I mean, we

150
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: were banning him. But if you're really honest on what

151
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: happened after a minutes long Mallard deliberation, If you look

152
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: at this, the reason the only reason the Arizonder the

153
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: Diamondbacks now are doing this is because it went viral.

154
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 1: He's been involved that the same fan has been involved

155
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,719
Speaker 1: in this for seven what three or four years. I

156
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: think four years prior to this year, he was never band.

157
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: What did nobody notice? Yeah, it didn't go viral. If

158
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: it had gone viral, he would have been kicked out.

159
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: This is the difference, right, you had the cyber gangster's paradise.

160
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: You had the bots on x and TikTok and read it,

161
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: and who knows, maybe they brought back MySpace. They brought

162
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: that back there. Probably they're all dragging this guy through

163
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: the cyber mud. Ben him, bend him, bet for baseball,

164
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: but throw him out, they screamed from the top of

165
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: the mountain. It is all performative pr that's performative reactionary

166
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: public relations. If two hundred people were watching that game,

167
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: if that was a Tampa Bay Rays game or a

168
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: Sacramento Athletics game, there would be two hundred people there

169
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 1: and instead of the vultures on social media, then nothing

170
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: would have happened. Nothing. There was a pile on It

171
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: was a dog pile. And this is the guys, Oh

172
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: my god, does it Every year the clip went viral,

173
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: It made the rounds and got enough views. The team

174
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 1: became aware of it and they're like, this is a

175
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: bad look. Terrified of any bad publicity. All these teams

176
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: are and so they probably have three of their interns

177
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: who are always on the social media, and there's all

178
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: this is bad. It makes us look bad. And so

179
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: they went on there and they tested the rage meter, said,

180
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: where does this is this trending topic? It is a

181
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: trending topic. Oh man, this is bad and we must

182
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: ban this person. So there you go ban them. Of course,

183
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: these things, as we pointed out, are impossible to de fallow.

184
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: Meaning as long as you have somebody else buy the ticket,

185
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do A you be like James

186
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 1: Dolan and sc scan the crowd and then I don't

187
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: think that's legal. I believe you'll end up in a

188
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: lawsuit and then it'll cost you more money. And so

189
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: good luck on that all right. Now, final fun to

190
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: send Francisco. We go the Giants and Diamondbacks playing a

191
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,959
Speaker 1: series this week, and the Giants decided to pick up

192
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 1: manager Bob Melvin's contract option for next season. Now, normally

193
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 1: we would not talking about this, but I thought it

194
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: was worthy of some conversation considering the way things have

195
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: gone for the Giants. So can you read anything into

196
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: the timing The timing of the Diamondbacks, giving manager Bob

197
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: Melvin a contract extension just a couple weeks after they

198
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: acquired Rafael Devers from the Red Sox. So on this one,

199
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: if you follow the bread crump crumbs, If you follow

200
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: the bread crumbs, here, Buster Posey is calling the shots, right,

201
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: He's the big shot, he's the GM and all that.

202
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: So this is old school, this is how they used

203
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: to operate in baseball. The Giants are scuffling. If they

204
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: were a fish, they'd be the flounder. They're floundering, the Giants,

205
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: and so they're playing like they collectively hit the snooze

206
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: button all of a sudden after a pretty good start,

207
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: couple of months of good baseball. Now, if you go

208
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: back to last month, the San Francisco Giants are under

209
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: five hundred the last thirty plus games. They recently got

210
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: smoked by the Marlins and then went to Chicago and

211
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: played like clowns against the White Sox over the weekend.

212
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: So they're bleeding games in the standings to the Doyers.

213
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: And it's like a tradition this time of the year.

214
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: And the Giants find themselves in the midst of this foggy,

215
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: mediocre period of baseball. So what do the higher ups do?

216
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: Old school extend the manager. We support Bob Melvin. We

217
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,479
Speaker 1: support this guy. That is the dreaded vote of confidence.

218
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: It is the baseball version of the boss calling you

219
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: into the office, calling you to the carpet, and it's like,

220
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: we really believe in your leadership, we really think you're

221
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: a great leader. And then they hand you a cardboard

222
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: box and say you have thirty minutes to get all

223
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: your knick knacks and all your stuff and please leave

224
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,359
Speaker 1: the building and if not, we're going to call security.

225
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: I've had that happen to me, as you heard the

226
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: show multiple times. So Bob Melvin does do I think

227
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 1: Bob Melvin is the problem? No? I don't do I

228
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: think Bob Melvin is the reason the Giants suck right

229
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 1: now the last month. No, but I know he's not

230
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: the solution. He doesn't have the answers. We know that,

231
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: and so he's not the problem. But he's not the solution.

232
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: So he's somewhere in the middle. And the Giants hired

233
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: him because he was the adult in the room. He

234
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: was going to bring order and make this a professional

235
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: outfit that plays baseball the right way. And the Giants

236
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: over the last month have been waiting through the baseball

237
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: version of oatmeal, meaning the way they are playing right now,

238
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: especially on offense for the most part the Giants, it's

239
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: like oatmeal. It's thick, bland and hard to swallow. That's

240
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: the that's the Giants and the way they played recently,

241
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: and it's the front office saying not Bob Melvin's fault.

242
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: We support Bob Melvin while secretly whispering, but if this

243
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: keeps going the way it's going in the rest of

244
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: July and August and September, then we are throwing you

245
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: overboard into McCovey cove before next season. Period, hard stop, period,

246
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: hard stop. It is the Bean Mallord Show. You want

00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: can also give us your reviews on Mike the Leprechaun

251
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: that was in here and he's left the building. He's

252
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: vacated the building. He did bring a lot of gifts,

253
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: which was very kind of him to do. I've not

254
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: even gone through everything and give a lot of stuff

255
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: for Loraina and Coop and they're not here, and some

256
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 1: stuff for me as well. Time out for the Mallor

257
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: Riddle of the day. And here's the Malord Riddle of

258
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: the day. Chiefs Star Travis Kelcey says he can no

259
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: longer blank while playing golf because the Papa Rozzo are

260
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: always watching. Again, Chief Star Travis Kelsey says he can

261
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: no longer blank while playing golf because the paparazzi are

262
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: always watching. That is the Mallard Riddle of the day.

263
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: The answer, We'll get to it. We'll do it next. Hey,

301
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey says he can no longer blank while playing

302
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 1: golf because of the paparazzi. They're always watching. That is

303
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: the question. What's the answer? Mala prop guy says, carry

382
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,000

383
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: not a D. He'll take that. He'll take that. The leprecha,

384
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: he said, he's back. Get his hotel room. He's listening,

385
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,480

386
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, here we go. In October second, nineteen twenty

387
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 3: was the last triple header. It involved the Pittsburgh team

388
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 3: and the Cincinnati team. They was playing at triple header.

389
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 3: Some standings and weather and all that. Uh, thumbs up

390
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 3: with thumbs down. But maybe this team is getting the

391
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 3: triple header during the season.

392
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: No, I'm gonna go thumbs down on that a little much.

393
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 1: I think they should have double headers on holidays, they

394
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: should play double headers. But yeah, I know it seems

395
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: like triple headers a little much, a little a little.

396
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 3: Too much, too much, too much.

397
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go thumbs down on that. What about you, Eddie? Okay,

398
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: you go thumbs up and down, thumbs down, thumbs down. Yeah, yeh,

399
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 1: it does too like twos. I've been to some double headers,

400
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 1: believe it or not, and it was okay. I was

401
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: into if you're into it, I feel like three. Yeah,

402
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: that's pushing it like two's pushing it for a lot.

403
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 1: Like baseball. Remember when during the pandemic, like when they

404
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: had double headers, they were like seven innings because they

405
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: didn't want to play the.

406
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 3: Full game exactly exactly.

407
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: Because somehow you wouldn't get sick if you played seven,

408
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: but if you played nine, you definitely get sick. You know,

409
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: big problem. Okay, last one, last one thrumbs up, thumbs

00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 3: the Tank Top City Select.

00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna go thumbs down. I know why they're

416
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: doing it, you know, and the Nike people that make

417
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: the uniforms that people don't buy ten different jerseys. The

418
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: jerseys don't change that much, so the only way to

419
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: move product they have to come up with this other stuff.

420
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 1: I'd say ninety seven percent of the City Connect jerseys suck,

421
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 1: so they're pretty bad.

422
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 4: Not all.

423
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 1: I mean there's some that are okay, Eddie. I mean

424
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: there's some that are right, but most of them are terrible. So, uh,

425
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't spend a penny from Benny versus

426
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 1: the pat would not spend a penny on that stuff.

427
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go thumbs thumbs down. Yeah, all right,

00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: honest with you. I've tell him to do things he

459
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: doesn't do him. So I've tried to get him to

460
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: put the song in. He refuses to do it. It takes

461
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: about five minutes of his time to do it. He's

462
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: chosen not to put that song in. So it's I mean,

463
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: we can't play it. It's not in the system. It's

464
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: only in his email. If it was in the system,

465
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 1: we'll be able to play it. There's nothing new with Lorena.

466
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: She would play I would tell her to play it.

467
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: She would play it. But it's not like Mary can't

468
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: play it because it's not in the system. So there's

469
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 1: no way to play it.

470
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 3: So well, yeah, I don't know about that.

471
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 5: Orina likes to hear her name repeated. So anyway, one

472
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 5: last thing, because I don't know how you handle it. Then,

473
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 5: I don't know how you handle and deal with Bline

474
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 5: Scott without going absolutely insane.

475
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 3: And well they do.

476
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 1: They do pay me, so that is part of the reason, Tammy.

477
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: They pay me to this, So if they didn't pay me,

478
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: there would be a problem.

479
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 5: But yeah, so well he just seems very angry, you know,

480
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 5: being a man or dressed and as a woman. He

481
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 5: needs to find something that makes him happy.

482
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: So well he does. This show makes blind Scott happy.

483
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: This show makes good.

484
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 5: He never sounds happy. I think he could be a furry.

485
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 5: If he was a furry, he might be happy.

486
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: Don't put don't put that out in the universe, Tammy.

487
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: We don't. I mean, come on, we got we we

488
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 1: would be happy. Well, Ferg dog is a furry, you

489
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:56,360
Speaker 1: know dog.

490
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, well we'd be happy because he'd be behind a

491
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 5: map least.

492
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: Okay, all right you are man Tam, thank you? All right,

493
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: Man Tam is getting ready for the octagon. She wants

Speaker 1: to get in that octagon. She wants what she wants

00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: the back of the truck that Tree is driving around

507
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: the Windy City and hello, Tree, you're gonna play the game.

508
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: I know you didn't call for this, but you're gonna play.

509
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: You're gonna be good sport, right of course, all right,

510
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: but how's how's a lot of treating in Chicago? Everything good?

511
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: Good man at ol'd hair Airport right now, just doing

512
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: what I do, beautiful. I one time got stuck in

513
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 1: a lightning storm at O'Hare Airport. This is in the

514
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: years before they changed the rules, and I spent Okay,

515
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: I think it was six hours. They had left the

516
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: gate and we were waiting to take off, and then

517
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: they said that the airport was closed and it was

518
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: closed for like six hours, and we sat in that plane.

519
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: It was a nightmare. Anyway, anytime I go to O'Hare,

520
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: I think of that obvious reasons. Okay, yeah, well, let's

521
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 1: play the game. Tree is in Chicago picking up some deliveries.

522
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna get three right to win, three right to win?

523
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: Are you ready? All right? Question number one, Number So

524
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Bucks just signed Miles Turner, coming off an

525
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: NBA Finals appearance. In the Finals, across the seven game series,

526
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: Turner made twenty five total baskets. Is that too much

527
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: or not enough? Tree in Chicago.

528
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 3: Mouths didn't play too good.

529
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say not enough, all right, believe not. The

530
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: answer is too much. He made barely over that, barely

531
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: under that. He made twenty three shots, twenty three totals

532
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: under one. That's all right. You have more questions our

533
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: question number two. After adding DK Metcalf and Aaron Rogers

534
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: this offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers have just recently traded for

535
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey. In his entire career with Jacksonville and the

536
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: Rams and the Dolphins, Ramsey has twenty two interceptions. Is

537
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: that too much or not enough? Too much you sure

538
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: about that?

539
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 3: Don't go with too much?

540
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: You're gonna go with too much? You sure? Let's find out. No,

541
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: that's not enough twenty I tried to talk into it.

542
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 1: Twenty four passes. He's intercepted twenty four passes his nine

543
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: year career. So again, it was close, but there's not

544
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: enough more than twenty two. Question number three Darren Waller

545
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 1: is coming out of a brief one year retirement. He

546
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: was traded from the Giants to the Dolphins. He'll be

547
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: playing in Miami. Just before this year off. Waller played

548
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: one season for the Giants. In that loan season, he

549
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 1: caught just three total touchdown passes. Is that too much

550
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: or not enough?

551
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 3: Oh? Man?

552
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: He was terrible that year. Yeah, he was pretty bid.

553
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say under three because I

554
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: remember the game. When do you think that's too much?

555
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,479
Speaker 1: All right, let's see is that too much? There you go?

556
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: You got one? Right? How about that? I got only

557
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: one touchdown in twelve games Darren Waller for the Giants.

558
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: So you're on the board.

559
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 3: He was so bad that he's so bad he didn't retire.

560
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: He got suspended from the NFL. He was so bad,

561
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: but they said he was retired. But no, no, All right,

562
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: let's go to question number four. And you're listening to

563
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: the tree. He's at O'Hare Airport picking up some deliveries

564
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: right now. Question number four got to get this right

565
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: to stay alive. Jeremiah Smith spoke to the Athletic. That's

566
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: the wide receiver from the Ohio State University and gave

567
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: a money quote. He says he promised he won't lose

568
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: another game to Michigan in the past. The season's loss

569
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 1: to the Wold rains. He had sixty receiving yards in

570
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: the big game. There is that too much or not enough?

571
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 3: When they lost the game? I think sixty yards was

572
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 3: too much.

573
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: Okay, let's find out you're right, stay alive. If not,

574
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: you lose, let's find out here.

575
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 2: You got your role about that?

576
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: Were even up too much? I only had thirty five

577
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: receiving yards in that game. He did have a touchdown.

578
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: So here it comes down to question number five. Will

579
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 1: the tree get higher in the sky or will we

580
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: up the tree down right now? We say well, we

581
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: say timber, or we say you're gonna win our question five.

582
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: This is Game seven of the World Series. This is

583
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 1: Game seven of the Finals. NBA Finals is Super Bowl.

584
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: Here we go, it's all online. Are you ready? Tree?

585
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 3: Alright, let's go, Here we go.

586
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: The man sounds very confident, very calm. The New York

587
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: Knicks are reportedly bringing back Mike Brown for a second interview.

588
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: He's definitely an experienced candidate, having been an NBA coach

589
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: for ten seasons. Is that too much or not enough

590
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: for Mike Brown?

591
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 3: Oh man, NB your coach for ten seasons?

592
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 1: Think about it, King Laker, Yeah, that's right. You know

593
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: every team's coached. That's good. Uh Man, I'm gonna go

594
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,800

595
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: You positive? You want to go too much? You don't

596
00:33:58,480 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: want to change that answer.

597
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 3: I thank you do a reverse psychology. So yes, I'm

598
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 3: gonna stick with my asses.

599
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: So you don't think I like you. You think I'm

600
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 1: trying to tell you that to lose. All right, let's

601
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 1: find out your final answer is what.

602
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 3: Ten season is too much?

603
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: Find out you lost? It's not enough. No, I actually

604
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: liked you. I wanted you to win, but no, So

605
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: instead Tree, we're gonna give you you do not win,

Speaker 1: Then that's void. So round trip to nowhere and a

612
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:43,040

648

Speaker 1: Ian Roddy.

649
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 4: All right, so first question here for you, Ben. Famed

650
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 4: YouTuber turn boxer Jake Paul defeated thirty nine year old

651
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 4: Julio Caesar Chavez Junior via unanimous decision a few days ago,

652
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 4: making yet another crazy victory over a long pastest prime

653
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 4: former boxing champion. So now the WBA, which is one

654
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 4: of the sports Big four governing bodies, they've added Paul

655
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 4: to its World cruiserweight rankings, putting him a number fourteen.

656
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 4: So none of the other three big, big governing bodies

657
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 4: have done that yet you are the first ones. But Ben,

658
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 4: do you like the decision to add Paul to the

659
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 4: official World rankings or is it not really?

660
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,359
Speaker 1: No, No, it's ridiculous. Listen, boxing is hanging out, it's

661
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: on fumes. I used to love boxing growing up. It's

662
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 1: the UFC is kicking their ass every single day of

663
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 1: the week. It's embarrassing for boxing. They still have this

664
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 1: alphabet soup, these four different things. They no one has

665
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: the balls to consolidate boxing the w A, WBA. As

666
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:19,359
Speaker 1: you say, you talk about losing credibility, it's ridiculous. Number two,

667
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: Jake Paul is a grifter, He's a carpetbagger, he's a

668
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:26,880
Speaker 1: side show. To give him any kind of credibility is embarrassing.

669
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. He's fighting tomato cans on a regular basis.

670
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 1: And you know there are many on the internet. I'm

671
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: not one of these people saying, don't sue me that

672
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: claim on these these are all scripted fights. I I

673
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: don't know whether that's true or not. I just things

674
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: I've read on the internet. But it's it's embarrassing to

675
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 1: make this seem legitimate. Bad job by the w BA next.

676
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you alluded to it in the last segment there,

677
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 4: But the athletics man in Navara release Blair recent recently

678
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 4: release a feature on Ohio States the paywall at the

679
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 4: Athletic Yeah yeah, yeah so, and it's Smith detailed his

680
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 4: hate for Michigan, how crazy it was losing to them

681
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 4: last year, and in the article, he also promised on

682
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,760
Speaker 4: the record that he will not lose another game to them.

683
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 4: That'd be the next two years before he has the

684
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 4: NFL at first, So, Ben, do you buy Smith's guarantee

685
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 4: that the Buckeyes won't lose the next time?

686
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: But what did he put on He's gonna cut a

687
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: toe off or a finger? If he did not specify

688
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: whether he's got a real bet dead and listen, what's

689
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: he supposed to say? The most amazing thing about Jeremiah

690
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: Smith is he is making, if the Internet is right,

691
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,760
Speaker 1: four point two million his his salary at Ohio State

692
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: four point two million in nil money. Aren't you supposed

693
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: to win every game when you were When you're at

694
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 1: four point two million dollars, He's third in all of

695
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,240
Speaker 1: college football in nil money, which is amazing. That's wild

696
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: to me. Uh, he's a great he's a great talent.

697
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: He's going to be drafted in the top two or

698
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: three of the NFL draft, assuming he doesn't fall apart

699
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 1: before he can be drafted and all that stuff. But

700
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,399
Speaker 1: he has to say they're gonna beat Michi. If you're

701
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: at Ohio State, it's like it's like being at sc

702
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: and saying, well, we're not gonna I think we'll lose

703
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 1: to Notre Dame this year or UCLA. You can't say that,

704
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 1: all right, I know you're an old trojan.

705
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 4: Next Yesterday, the Dolphins traded Jalen Ramsey and tight end

706
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 4: John new Smith to the Steelers for Minka Fitzpatrick and

707
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 4: a Day three pickswap so Ben, who do you think

708
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:21,720
Speaker 4: won the trade?

709
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna discount John new Smith for a second,

710
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: just on the defensive back. For the safety, I'm gonna

711
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: give that to Jalen Ramsey. I don't think he's even closed.

712
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: Like Ramsey, he is tiptoeing towards the end of his

713
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: career because of the age thing. He's still got a

714
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 1: little fuel left in the tank. If you look at

715
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: Minka Fitzpatrick in Pittsburgh last year, he allowed a career

716
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: high opposing passer rating the numbers across the board, like

717
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,359
Speaker 1: he was so much worse than he had been, like

718
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: he fell into an abyss there in Pittsburgh. And so

719
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: it's not surprising that they traded. And maybe you'll find

720
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: the fountain of youth. As you know, the found of

721
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 1: Youth is in Florida. Ponce de Leon somewhere in Florida

722
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: has the fund. I think it's in Tampa actually, but

723
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: but no, I'm gonna I'm gonna say the Steelers won

724
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: the trade. I mean, John O. Smith is that great,

725
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 1: but he's he's better and Jalen Ramsey's better than this Patrick.

726
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 1: All right there it is mallor to the third degree Ian,

727
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: How did we do crunching the numbers?

728
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 2: Here?

729
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 4: And yep, yeap looks like he has a win.

730
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 3: Look at that bunner on the Lord another win.

731
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: I'm the all time wins king. No one else
