1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: The following content does not reflect the opinions of Fox

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. We know this show sucks.

3
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 2: All right, all right, you.

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 3: Or your lie from Philly.

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 2: It's the number one rated Polly and Tony Fusco show,

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 2: Yo Yo, y'all always Polly Fosco here with Tony Fusco

7
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: and Tony Yo huge show today. Of course, we're gonna

8
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: get into these idiots out there who continue to bash

9
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: the Eagles because they won lost three straight games.

10
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: Big deal, as they say, these people can't see the

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: trees in the forest morons.

12
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. You know, people, the team is still ten

13
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: and four, all right, They basically won eighty five percent

14
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: of their games, and yet the lying media wants to

15
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 2: tell you this is a bad team. Well, we're going

16
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 2: to expose that. And you know, also something we're gonna

17
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 2: do Tony on this show. You're not gonna want to

18
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: miss a very emotional and movie tribute to all the

19
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 2: people we lost in the year twenty twenty three. And

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 2: just to be clear, it will only be the big

21
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: names people know, you know, not the forgettable people. You know.

22
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you got left off this list, well you

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: should have been more famous. That's on you.

24
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 2: Exactly. But before that, we have a big and somewhat

25
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 2: confusing announcement, don't we Tony. The show has just been

26
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: shortlisted by these Sports Podcast Awards for Best Sports Comedy

27
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 2: Podcast Comedy.

28
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: This isn't a comedy show.

29
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 2: I don't get it either, Tony. You know, that's why

30
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 2: we need to expose this Sports Podcast Awards for the

31
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 2: idiocy anyway. So we're going to do that by telling

32
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: you to click the link in the description right down there,

33
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 2: and you know, vote for the show so we can

34
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: expose these morons, whoever they are, once and.

35
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,559
Speaker 1: For all, and use your computer because on the phone,

36
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: the website sucks.

37
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. They don't know how to build a

38
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: website anyway. If we know a top story, you know,

39
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: usually we get paid millions of dollars to do some

40
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 2: of our business demands right here. But today we're going

41
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 2: to use this prime valuable real estate to promote the

42
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: official Fusco Show merch Store. If you're looking for a

43
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: last minute gift for the holidays, well you're too late,

44
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: but you know you can still order from the merch

45
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: store and then go tell people that it's on its way,

46
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: right Tony.

47
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if they complain, tell them to shut up

48
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: and be patient, relaxed.

49
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Anyway, well, you know what's on the way

50
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: right now, Tony a top story story, first story out

51
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: the gate. You know, the Eagles they are lost to

52
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 2: the Seahawks. But that was clearly only because Jalen Hurts

53
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 2: somehow got sick for the first time in years. And well,

54
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: you know, this is what we do on the show,

55
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: don't we, Tony. We connect the dots. The lazy media

56
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: just refuses to connect. And you know, people, doesn't this

57
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 2: seem a little strange? The NFL takes away the Eagles

58
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 2: top security god and then suddenly Jalen Hurts get sick.

59
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 2: How do we know this isn't germ warfare? Jalen Hurts

60
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 2: was one hundred percent germ free right up until they

61
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: took away that security god. Now he's as infected as

62
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: a baton Wuhan and that Tony Hey, which NFL city

63
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 2: is closest to Wuhan.

64
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: Seeah, oh, there you go, great point by your poor Lee.

65
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and here's another great point, you know, by the way,

66
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 2: after that loss to the Seahawks, Jalen Hurts said the

67
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: team lacked quote commitment, but then this reporter moron asked

68
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: him to define commitment play unbelievable. What do you mean

69
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: by that being committed?

70
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 3: Now?

71
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: You know, people, if you are a reporter and you

72
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 2: have to ask what words mean, then you are a reporter.

73
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 2: Instead of asking a quarterback, why don't you go ask

74
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 2: aus thesaurus? So stupid talking about stupid, Tony. Let's talk

75
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 2: about the Dallas Cowboys. You know, despite getting set it's

76
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: weekly humiliated by the Bills thirty one to ten. Somehow

77
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: Dallas clinched a playoff spot, and that Tony, this is

78
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: just absolutely baffling and quite disturbing, isn't it?

79
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: It makes no sense. I mean, what is the NFL

80
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: doing by rewarding the Cowboys with the playoff spot just

81
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: for losing by twenty one points? This is exactly the

82
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: problem with society. It's called failing upwards. What are we

83
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: teaching our children. It's bad enough that we have people

84
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: like the Hot Chicks daughter from full House getting into

85
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,679
Speaker 1: college for doing nothing. Now we have the Cowboys making

86
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: the playoffs for losing. If I'm the NFL, I would

87
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: be revoking their playoff spot immediately.

88
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: Terrific and important analysis that Dony and another important subject

89
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 2: we must address on this show. Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito

90
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 2: and his agent Sean Stellato have been making headlines for

91
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: their specific way of speaking in dressing, you know, which

92
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 2: has made certain people on the internet mock them carelessly

93
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 2: for resembling characters and the Sopranos and the other Italian

94
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 2: American stereotypes. And Tony, this is a very troubling issue

95
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 2: that hits home for us, doesn't it?

96
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Just to get serious for a moment, we really

97
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: need to defend Tommy DeVito and his agent here. It

98
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: is totally wrong to mock people for their way of

99
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 1: speaking and dressing, especially Italian Americans. Do you really think

100
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: it's funny to mock someone because they talk like some

101
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: kind of side character from the Sopranos, for wearing a

102
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: green suit with a turtleneck and a fedora and also

103
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: a gold chain that has a golden rattlesnake pendant. There's

104
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 1: nothing either remotely funny or even entertaining about.

105
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 2: That, so beautifully said Tony. And now to another annoying

106
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 2: quarterback situation we must address. You know, people out there,

107
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,559
Speaker 2: they're claiming that forty nine Ers quarterback Brock Purty should

108
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 2: be the because of you know, so called important stats

109
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 2: like passyards, touchdowns, completion percentage. But Tony, we all know

110
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: what's the only stat for a quarterback that matters pass attempts.

111
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, yep. Rock Party is dead last in the

112
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: NFL and the only QB stat that matters we just

113
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,679
Speaker 1: said it, pass attempts. This shows how little the forty

114
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: nine ers trust him with the ball. I mean, all

115
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: they really want him to do is give the ball

116
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: to the running backs. What are we gonna do give

117
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: him MVP for throwing zero yard passes? You know, this

118
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 1: is why I've never understood why we tip waders at restaurants.

119
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: They didn't make the food, They just handed me the food.

120
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 1: That's why whenever I tip waiters, I always tell them,

121
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: make sure this goes to the chef, not Youyo, you

122
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: didn't do anything.

123
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 2: Just a terrific analogy there that puts it in perspective

124
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 2: for everyone. And now to some other perspective. You know,

125
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers making a lot of people angry out there

126
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 2: this week after he was activated to the Jets fifty

127
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 2: three man roster, which meant that Jets fullback Nick Borden

128
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: had to be deactivated and delirable. This is just such

129
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 2: a disrespectful, terrible move, isn't it.

130
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean this move by Aaron Rodgers is so

131
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: disrespectful to Nick Bowden and his many accomplishments. What up

132
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: his stats from this year? He has two carries and

133
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: one of them is a touchdown. That means he gets

134
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: a touchdown half the time he has the ball. Those

135
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: are Hall of Fame numbers. This just shows more poor

136
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: mismanagement from the Jets.

137
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: Such terrific statistical analysis that Dony and now finally moving

138
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: to college football, It's time for our annual tradition on

139
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: this show, as you know, our yearly ball game predictions.

00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 2: game predictions. Great job, Tony, But of course now it's

160
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 2: time to bring it down a notch. Kill that music,

161
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: because as we do every year on the show, it's

162
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 2: time for our special in Memoriam second when we look

163
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 2: at lots of yeah and all the many people we

164
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: have lost. Again, just to be clear, only the famous people,

165
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 2: not the forgettable people. So you know, just only the

166
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: famous people and the names you know, all right, So

167
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 2: here we go a playing that sad music, play that

168
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: sad music, and let's get into it.

169
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: In Memoriam twenty twenty three.

170
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 2: Okay, Tony, our first name, you run the list. Bob Knight,

171
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 2: Legendary coach basketball coach for Bediana and Texas Tech. You know, people,

172
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: there no other coach in any sport who had more

173
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: of an.

174
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: Impact, not even closes.

175
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 2: And that's because he had an actual impact, of course,

176
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 2: like when he threw a chair at a referee or

177
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 2: punch the player in the face because he missed a

178
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 2: three throw. And this is such such legendary coaching, right,

179
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 2: Tony so true.

180
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 1: Bobby Knight knew how to motivate players. You don't give

181
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: them positive feedback and all this sudden lane put bullshit.

182
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: No no, you just reach out and choke them. And well,

183
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: the results speak for themselves. Tons of Final Four appearances, championships,

184
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: also several lawsuits, complaints, police visits, rewriting of institutional behavior policies,

185
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: and investigations from ESPN's outside the lines. But that's just

186
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: because naive people didn't understand how coaching works.

187
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 2: You know, Tony so well said. And when you think

188
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: about it that way, you know, if Bobby Knight had

189
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 2: been allowed to choke and punch more players, you'd have

190
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 2: to think he'd have four or five more championships under

191
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 2: his belt minimum. Yeah, eas, And that leads us to

192
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,479
Speaker 2: our next name in our in memoriam segment legendary Chicago

193
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 2: Bears defenseman Dick Buckus. And you know what really bothers

194
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: me here, Dony, It's that Dick but Gus never got

195
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: the respect he deserves. He should say your bigger name

196
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: as OJ Simpson. You know, you may say, well that's

197
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 2: a bad thing, but no, you see, Dick Buckus, he

198
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: knew that it was okay to murder someone as well

199
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 2: as you did it in the field of play, right,

200
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 2: Tony one hundred.

201
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: You know, it's so unfortunate that the NFL never counted

202
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: as a stat murders and attempted murders, because if they did,

203
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: Dick Buckus would be right up there with OJ and

204
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: Jack the Ripper and you know Ted Bondy. But again

205
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: in a good way, because he did his attempted murdering legally.

206
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,119
Speaker 2: So well, said Tony. And of course we can't overlook

207
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: the profound work that Dick Butckus did in the entertainment industry.

208
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,359
Speaker 2: Of course, I'm talking about his work on the sitgum

209
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 2: My Two Dads. You know, sounds like it was about

210
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 2: two men who have a baby. But you know, if

211
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 2: you actually bothered to watch the show, you'd realize that

212
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 2: was not the premise. Just two men who fought over

213
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 2: the same girl years ago and then came together to

214
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: raise her daughter, you know, perfectly plausible and heterosexual arrangement there.

215
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 2: And to also be clear, Dick, but Gus was not

216
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 2: one of the dads, So just remember that he was

217
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 2: just the guy that the cafe on the first floor

218
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 2: of the apartment building where the two dads lived very common.

219
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 2: It's very common, very plausible again for apartment buildings to

220
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 2: just have cafes on the first floor. So totally there

221
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: you go. He will be all right. And that brings

222
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 2: us to our next legend. We are honoring here great

223
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 2: third basement for the Baltimore Orioles Brooks. Robinson just don't know,

224
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 2: you know so many great plays, you know, such a

225
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 2: great hitter, fielder. But you know all, I hate to

226
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 2: say this, but he will always be known as the

227
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 2: third greatest player with the last name Robinson.

228
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: You got to mention it. True.

229
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 2: I hate to say it, but you know, Frank Robinson

230
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 2: much better, Jackie Robinson much more important.

231
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 1: Way more important, totally.

232
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 2: And you know, I guess if we're talking athletes, then

233
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 2: I you know, David Robinson more famous.

234
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: You know that's true. Sugar Ray Robin Sugar. Yeah.

235
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 2: And you know, yeah, I guess if we're talking famous people, Tony,

236
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 2: we got to mention Smokey Robinson.

237
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, the guy from the Office, Greg Robinson,

238
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 1: right yeah, yeah. And also you got the Swiss family Robinson.

239
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 2: Y Swiss family Robinson. That was that was a thing.

240
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, that was a thing. You got to put

241
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 2: you boys and yels. You got to put all them

242
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 2: family above Brooks Robinson. So all right, Brooks Robinson famous.

243
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: But you know, when you look at it, among the

244
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,439
Speaker 2: Robinson's only really the thirteenth or fourteenth most famous robber.

245
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: He's definitely up there. He's definitely up there, definitely.

246
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 2: Up there, all right. Next up in our special in

247
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 2: Memoriam segment for twenty twenty three, basketball legend Willis Reid,

248
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: you know, won two titles and had that legendary Game

249
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 2: seven performance versus the Lakers. Who can forget But you know,

250
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 2: unfortunately he did win those titles with the Knicks, and

251
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 2: I hate to say it, but that does kind of

252
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: tarnish his whole legacy, you know, it.

253
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: Does a little bit maybe for being honest.

254
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 2: Played for a better franchise, you know, like the Sixers

255
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: or Lakers, even he did revered, but you know, since

256
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 2: he played for the Knicks again, unfortunately, when people here

257
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 2: he was a.

258
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: Nick they just assume Hones.

259
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 2: His teens must have been sub five hundred garbage every year,

260
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 2: you know, and losing in the first round every year.

261
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 2: And you know that's just such a shame.

262
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: For a legend like Willis, absolutely but also accurate.

263
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: There you go. And now next on our list a

264
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 2: non sports person, but illuminary.

265
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: Doesn't his own right, right, Matthew Perry.

266
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: Now you know you've heard many tributes to him in

267
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: recent weeks, but nobody has said what must be said,

268
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 2: And of course that's that Friends was the funnier show

269
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: than Seinfeld, you know, not even exactly. You know, people

270
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 2: will always act like Seinfeld was the better show, but

271
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: not by me, definitely not by you, Tony. I mean,

272
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 2: never understood, I never understood, never understood Seinfeld. You know,

273
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: all those storylines going back and forth, you know, confusing,

274
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: not funny at all, too much to follow. You know, Friends,

275
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: they had that right formula, you know, one liners, you know,

276
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 2: the handler bing, you know, hot chicks, tyme, they had

277
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 2: it all yeah, exactly.

278
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: And they also had funny gimmicks like Marcello the Monkey.

279
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean that's you put all those ingredients together there.

280
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 2: I just I can't believe people don't have, you know,

281
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 2: friends still up there. So again, I know, another name

Speaker 2: body of work. I mean, you know, of.

286
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: Work absolutely, just so much to admire. That body of

287
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: work was so incredible and so full and just so memorable.

288
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 2: So memorable. I mean, you know there were so many

289
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 2: times I would just you know, close my eyes and

290
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 2: think about that incredible body of work and you know.

291
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: Just really again and again again and again.

292
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 2: Right.

00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: You know, she had so many great movies, you know,

294
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: like the one where she walked around in that ripped

295
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 1: kind of loincloth thing yep, or you know the other

296
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: one where she wore the bikini that looked like an

297
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: American flag, kind of like a hot Betsy Ross, And

298
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 1: you know, there's so many other great performances.

299
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 2: She was so gifted in so many ways, as you

300
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: just pointed, out so beautifully and finally, thank you last,

301
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 2: but certainly not least, on our list great Oakland A's pitcher,

302
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 2: Vida Blue and Tony. You have a personal story here,

303
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 2: don't you.

304
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: I do. When I was a kid, I remember my

305
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: dad and I were driving the Veterans one day when

306
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: the A's were playing the Phillies, and this guy cut

307
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: my dad off in traffic and my dad was like,

308
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: that was Vita Blue. So he sped up like one

309
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: hundred miles an hour and chased him down, and finally

310
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: we caught up with them at a traffic light and

311
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: my dad rolled down my window and was like, fuck,

312
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 1: Vita Blue, you has been non Hall of Famer. But

313
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: then we realized it wasn't Vita Blue, but just some

314
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: guy who kind of looked like him. So, you know,

315
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: I thought to myself, you know, it doesn't make sense

316
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: because Vita Blue would never cut us off like that.

317
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: That's the kind of guy that Vita Blue was. That

318
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: whole experience really just made me keep a very high

319
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: opinion of Vita Blue.

320
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 2: What a truly heartfelt story there, Tony. In just a

321
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 2: perfect way to wrap up our in Memoriam segment for

322
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 2: twenty twenty. First off, we do apologize to any people

323
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 2: who were left off the list, but that, you know,

324
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 2: just means you weren't famous enough, so you know that's

325
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 2: on you. Before we wrap the show entirely, we do

326
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 2: want to remind you go visit the official food Stop store.

327
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 2: If it's someone I wish it was an in memoriam segment,

328
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: I'll produce a jay.

329
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: They'll be there soon. What do you want?

330
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 3: Corrections? What? What?

331
00:18:58,800 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 1: Hurry up?

332
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 3: Lambed brought purty for being last in pass attempts.

333
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: Yay, it sucks, bro.

334
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 2: It can't be trusted with the ball.

335
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 3: He doesn't have to throw the ball because they're usually

336
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 3: in the lead. Quarterbacks throw more when they're losing.

337
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Well when I see you after the show,

338
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: you're going to be losing blood.

339
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know who won't have a lead, the

340
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: detectives who are looking for your body. You a done

341
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: good one. That's it with done BALLI let's get out

342
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 1: of it. Well, no, why hurry up?

343
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 3: You said the Eagles have won eighty five percent of

344
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 3: their games.

345
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: Yeah they're still great, bro.

346
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 2: Yeah right on track.

347
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 3: Bro, you guys really need to learn math. They're ten

348
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 3: and four. You divide ten by fourteen and you get

349
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 3: seventy one point four percent.

350
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well you know what, I'm going to divide

351
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 2: your head and your spine.

352
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to kick seventy one one point four

353
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 1: percent of your balls. Let's go, yeah with don the show? No,

354
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 1: why hurry up?

355
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 3: You said the people criticizing the Eagles can't see the

356
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 3: trees in the forest.

357
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're dumb, bro stupid people.

358
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got the saying all wrong. It's they can't

359
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 3: see the forest from the trees.

360
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well, uh, you'll see the forest when I

361
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 2: leave your dead body there.

362
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you remind me of a forest gump.

363
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 2: The way.

364
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 3: By the way, the A's and Phillies couldn't have played

365
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 3: each other. There was no interleap playback then, so that

366
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 3: story about Vita Blue makes even less sense.

367
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 2: Tony, Can you believe this, jerk?

368
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:03,360
