Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour.
Speaker 2: In this Thursday, Dan and the Dan That's Dan Patrick Show,
Speaker 2: come on in stay awhile, talk some football last hour,
Speaker 2: talk some baseball this hour. David Cohne, five time World
Speaker 2: Series champ, and he's an analyst for the Yankees. After
Speaker 2: the no hitter last night by the Yankees Domingo Herman,
Speaker 2: a perfect game against the Oakland A's whole question for
Speaker 2: the final hour is going to be what seat O'Connor.
Speaker 2: By the way, we got a source telling us that
Speaker 2: Victor Wan Bayama's official height without shoes on is seven
Speaker 2: foot three and a half. Don't know if you were
Speaker 2: waiting for that, but I would round up. I'd round
Speaker 2: up to seven to four. I'm more interested in how
Speaker 2: much he weighs, not how tall he is. All right, Seaton,
Speaker 2: Final Hour?
Speaker 1: What do we have?
Speaker 3: Well, we've got still from the first hour. Perfect game
Speaker 3: is more skill or luck?
Speaker 1: Right now?
Speaker 4: It's sixty four percent saying luck?
Speaker 1: Okay, which is really interesting.
Speaker 2: Well, I asked David Cohne, because he threw a perfect game,
Speaker 2: how much is luck and how much is skill?
Speaker 3: It feels like it's exactly backwards. It's got to be
Speaker 3: at least seventy percent skill and it's some luck.
Speaker 2: I would say, it's well, you know what, I'm not
Speaker 2: going to give my number yet. I'm going to bring
Speaker 2: in David Cone ask him since he threw a perfect game. David,
Speaker 2: thanks for joining us. If we were going to go
Speaker 2: the percentage of skill and luck and throw throwing a
Speaker 2: perfect game, what would you say that percentage would be?
Speaker 5: Well, it's an interesting point because not every pitch thrown
Speaker 5: in a perfect game is a perfect pitch. So when
Speaker 5: you do make a mistake, the hitters have to cooperate
Speaker 5: right and miss it or pop it up, and certainly
Speaker 5: there were a few of those last night for Domingo Herman.
Speaker 5: But I will say this, there's much more stress in
Speaker 5: a perfect game. Every time you get to three ball count,
Speaker 5: you know you can blow it with a walk, whereas
Speaker 5: you know if you walk somebody in a no hitter,
Speaker 5: you still have the no hitter. So we've seen no
Speaker 5: hitters thrown with four, five, six, seven, eight walks sometimes,
Speaker 5: but that's different in a perfect game, much more pressure, so,
Speaker 5: I would say, and the skills more important in a
Speaker 5: perfect game because of the pressure than a no hitter
Speaker 5: where you have margin for air if you walk a guy.
Speaker 2: I'm wondering more pressure is felt by the picture in
Speaker 2: a perfect game or his teammates in a perfect game.
Speaker 5: That's a great question, Dan. I know. I watched David
Speaker 5: Wells throw his perfect game the year before mine. We
Speaker 5: went back to back years, nineteen ninety eight, nineteen ninety nine,
Speaker 5: and I was a wreck watching his perfect game at
Speaker 5: the dugout. I mean, I was just a nervous wreck.
Speaker 5: When you're actually participating, when you're the picture in a
Speaker 5: perfect game, you are just desperate to maintain your focus.
Speaker 5: Nobody wants to talk to you. Your anxiety ridden when
Speaker 5: you're the picture in that game. So maintaining your emotions
Speaker 5: is a full time job. Whereas actually watching it you
Speaker 5: allow all those negative thoughts to creep into your mind.
Speaker 5: You know, what if he blows it, what if something happens?
Speaker 5: You know, you have more time to think if you're
Speaker 5: actually watching.
Speaker 2: It as a picture. When you take the mound? Is
Speaker 2: your goal to throw a perfect game every time you
Speaker 2: take the mount? I mean to have that mindset when
Speaker 2: you go out there.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I think your goal is to win every
Speaker 5: pitch Your goal is to not walk anybody. Your goal
Speaker 5: is to consistently get ahead in the count to maintain
Speaker 5: count leverage. So yeah, in that sense, I guess you know,
Speaker 5: you certainly want to win every bat. You want to
Speaker 5: get everybody out that you can, and then when you
Speaker 5: do give up hits, you you know, you kind of
Speaker 5: brush it off because that's to be expected. But yeah,
Speaker 5: your mentality is sort of going in strike one, I'm
Speaker 5: going to get this guy out. I'm going to get
Speaker 5: ahead of him and then get him out and stay
Speaker 5: on top of stay on top of the hitters all
Speaker 5: day long.
Speaker 2: What do you remember about your perfect game? It came
Speaker 2: against the Montreal Expos. Who was in the lineup that
Speaker 2: day that you worried about.
Speaker 5: Well, Vladimir Guerrero was in that lineup. A Hall of
Speaker 5: Famer Jose Vidro, a really good player and All Star
Speaker 5: second baseman, was in that lineup.
Speaker 1: So those guys, those.
Speaker 5: Two really worried me more than anything. And Vladimir Guerrero
Speaker 5: presented an interesting problem because he could hit everything. He
Speaker 5: was the best bad ball hitter since Yogi Berra you know,
Speaker 5: Yoga get hit everything over his head, you know, almost
Speaker 5: one hop it we saw Vladimir Garrera, I'll get a
Speaker 5: hit when the ball actually bounced one time. So no
Speaker 5: matter what, you know, which pitch I threw. He was
Speaker 5: the guy I worried about because he could hit anything.
Speaker 1: Did you use stick him stuff or sticky stuff back then?
Speaker 1: Not a lot.
Speaker 5: Really. Occasionally, on a cool night, I would grab the
Speaker 5: rosin bag that was in the batter's box circle because
Speaker 5: it had a little pine tar on it. So yeah,
Speaker 5: I mean, I guess you could say, yeah, I did
Speaker 5: at times use a little bit of pine tar with
Speaker 5: rosin mixed on a cold night, but we didn't realize
Speaker 5: how much it could help your spin rate. We didn't
Speaker 5: know anything about spin rates back then, or if we did,
Speaker 5: we didn't know how to measure them. So certainly I
Speaker 5: was worried about blisters too. If you use too much
Speaker 5: stick them, is that going to rip the pads off
Speaker 5: my fingers? I was more worried about, you know, worried
Speaker 5: about messing up my fingertips and getting blisters than anything
Speaker 5: else with sticky stuff.
Speaker 2: I'm wondering why baseball doesn't come out with their own
Speaker 2: products that these are the only products you can use,
Speaker 2: and that's it. This is going to be approved by hitters,
Speaker 2: this will be approved by pitchers, and anything after that
Speaker 2: going to face a really long suspension.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I think Major League Baseball feels like they kind of
Speaker 5: have done that with just the Rosin bags that are
Speaker 5: on the mound itself, and that's what they're policing this year.
Speaker 5: You can't have your own Rosin bag in your locker.
Speaker 5: You can only use the one on the mound. You
Speaker 5: can't weaponize the Rosin if it gets too sticky, We're
Speaker 5: going to bang you for that too. The problem with
Speaker 5: Major League Baseball is they're obsessed with strikeout rates. The
Speaker 5: strikeout rates are so high in the game today that
Speaker 5: if they present a new product or a sticky baseball
Speaker 5: like the one they have in Japan, a pre treated baseball,
Speaker 5: that the pitchers are going to take advantage of that
Speaker 5: and increase the strikeout rates. So I think that's why
Speaker 5: Major League Baseball was reluctant to do exactly what you said,
Speaker 5: Dan and sort of come up with a universal product
Speaker 5: that works. They're worried about pitchers weaponizing whatever they introduce
Speaker 5: into the game and increasing the strikeout rates.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I'm wondering about that because there's no shame in striking
Speaker 2: out anymore. You know, it's not a big deal.
Speaker 1: It used to be.
Speaker 2: It was like, you know, hitters would hang their heads
Speaker 2: as they walk back to the dugout.
Speaker 1: When did it change that.
Speaker 2: It's not an embarrassment to strike out one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty times.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's sort of a perfect storm of things, you know.
Speaker 5: I think the underrated facet is the strike zone itself.
Speaker 5: Back in the nineties and eighties, it was more of
Speaker 5: an east and west strike zone, and if you threw
Speaker 5: a pitch right down the middle and the catcher caught
Speaker 5: it at his mask, that was an automatic ball, much
Speaker 5: less high curve balls that were up that way that
Speaker 5: are called strikes nowadays. So it's more of a north
Speaker 5: and south strike zone. We don't get those pitches off
Speaker 5: the edges like we used to. I mean, Greg Maddox
Speaker 5: and John Smoltz and Tom Glavin and myself, we all
Speaker 5: lived off the edge of high high off the outside corner,
Speaker 5: that was where the margin was. We got pitches called
Speaker 5: off the plate strikes, but we never got the high
Speaker 5: strike called. So that's the difference. The power pitchers are
Speaker 5: throwing harder than ever before. The strike zone is higher
Speaker 5: than it's ever been before. Really, you have to go
Speaker 5: back to Jim Palmer, back with the outside chess protectors,
Speaker 5: remember the bubble chess protectors, lee wire, those old umpires.
Speaker 5: That was a higher strike zone. Back then, in the
Speaker 5: sixties and seventies, the pitchers didn't throw as hard as
Speaker 5: they do nowadays. So every reliever throws ninety five miles
Speaker 5: an hour, plus a lot of them one hundred miles
Speaker 5: an hour. That coupled with a high strike zone, has
Speaker 5: led to a higher strikeout rate along with hitters trying
Speaker 5: to drive the ball. The power is premium power. Hitting
Speaker 5: power pitching equals more strikeouts.
Speaker 2: I'm talking to David Cohne, the Yes Yankee analyst joining
Speaker 2: us on the program. You were a Yankee, you were
Speaker 2: a Met, if you were a Met fan, can you
Speaker 2: can you say let's be patient?
Speaker 1: If you know?
Speaker 2: Steve Cohen said, Hey, I'm not going to act like
Speaker 2: you want me to. I'm not firing anybody. We're not
Speaker 2: doing anything crazy here. How do you preach patients with
Speaker 2: a team that's got a payroll as large as the Mets?
Speaker 8: Really hard to do right now.
Speaker 5: They're you know, the Atlanta Braves are a juggernaut running
Speaker 5: away with the East. You're eight and a half games
Speaker 5: out of the final wildcard spot if you're the Mets
Speaker 5: right now. So if you're looking at the very final
Speaker 5: wildcard spot, like the Philadelphia Phillies did last year and
Speaker 5: rode all the way to the World Series. They won
Speaker 5: eighty six games and still got to the World Series,
Speaker 5: that's a long shot for the Mets right now. They have,
Speaker 5: according to betting nods or predictive odds, that are out there,
Speaker 5: like less than a five percent chance right now just
Speaker 5: to make the playoffs. So that is in and of
Speaker 5: itself daunting. They really need to look at this trade
Speaker 5: deadline as sort of reconfiguring their roster, in my opinion,
Speaker 5: sort of what pieces don't fit together, what pieces are
Speaker 5: kind of aging. They have some pretty good young players
Speaker 5: that have come up and helped, whether it's Brett Beady
Speaker 5: at third base or Alvarez at the catching position. They
Speaker 5: have a couple of others that are on the way
Speaker 5: as well. That's the future for them. They sort of
Speaker 5: need to reconfigure their roster. They probably need to look
Speaker 5: for trade partners. I wouldn't be surprised to see even
Speaker 5: the Yankees and the Mets hook up in this trade
Speaker 5: deadline because Billy Eppler used to work for Brian Cashman.
Speaker 5: Steve Cohen, the owner of the Mets, doesn't care where
Speaker 5: the trades come from. He doesn't have this sort of mentality,
Speaker 5: this anti Yankee mentality. He's a businessman. So the days
Speaker 5: of the zoning the Mets and not trading with the
Speaker 5: Yankees are kind of over in my mind. So there
Speaker 5: could be a match there. If the Yankees need an outfielder,
Speaker 5: do they match up with somebody like a Starley Marte
Speaker 5: or something like that. You know, I think those are
Speaker 5: the type of the deals, the type of deals the
Speaker 5: Mets need to look for at this trade line.
Speaker 2: I'm wondering if fifteen years from now we look back
Speaker 2: on show Hey Otani and what he kind of birthed,
Speaker 2: that you will have these two way players that you know,
Speaker 2: in high school, your shortstop is your pitcher and usually
Speaker 2: batting third in the lineup there.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if you were.
Speaker 2: Like that, but it feels like these guys grow up
Speaker 2: being hitters and being pitchers. Are we going to have
Speaker 2: not a wave, but at least a few of these
Speaker 2: two way players in Major League baseball.
Speaker 5: It's a great question, Dan, I think yes. I think
Speaker 5: sho heey Otani is inspirational in that regard. He's a trailblazer.
Speaker 5: He's showing the way. And there's certainly we saw kids
Speaker 5: in the College World Series this year there are two
Speaker 5: way players that are throwing the ball in the upper nineties,
Speaker 5: you know, the left hand for Florida that started that
Speaker 5: final game as one of those kids as well. So yes,
Speaker 5: my answer is, yes, we're going to see kids that
Speaker 5: try to do it, organizations that will bring them along
Speaker 5: in the minor leagues and kind of experiment with it
Speaker 5: and allow them to explore whether they can handle both
Speaker 5: or not. But why not you know, show hey Otani's
Speaker 5: the MVP because he plays such an important role on
Speaker 5: their team on both sides of the ball. So why
Speaker 5: wouldn't you want that? Why wouldn't you want that double
Speaker 5: value if you can develop that neuron system.
Speaker 1: Should he get two salaries? Interesting?
Speaker 5: Well, you know what he should get is probably equity
Speaker 5: in the team that signs him. You know, at this point,
Speaker 5: I mean, if you're trying to sign show Hey Otani
Speaker 5: and you're you're the Anaheim Angels, you know, how do
Speaker 5: you entice him.
Speaker 2: Well, what would you do with the trade deadline if
Speaker 2: if they haven't agreed to anything contract extension. Not much
Speaker 2: has been made public here, but at some point the
Speaker 2: Angels have to have something in return if show Hey
Speaker 2: doesn't want to stay.
Speaker 5: Yes, I believe that they need him to stay so
Speaker 5: badly that they need to hold onto him and hope
Speaker 5: they get into the playoffs and hope he becomes a
Speaker 5: postseason hero for them at least get them in a
Speaker 5: position to win a wild card spot in the West,
Speaker 5: which they currently are very much in the running for.
Speaker 5: So yes, you let that play out, because your best
Speaker 5: chance to sign show Hey Otani back is a long
Speaker 5: and deep postseason run with him in my trout, that
Speaker 5: kind of shows him, Hey, you should stay right here.
Speaker 5: We're on the right we're on the right move here,
Speaker 5: we're moving in the right direction. So you know, with
Speaker 5: that being said, there might be a blockbuster trade out there, Dan,
Speaker 5: You're right, I mean you have to listen. You have
Speaker 5: to listen. If there's a blockbuster trade where you can
Speaker 5: really get an incredible value back, then you have to
Speaker 5: consider it. But I still believe they want to keep him,
Speaker 5: and the best way to keep him is to get
Speaker 5: the postseason and show him what it's like to have
Speaker 5: postseason ball at the.
Speaker 1: Big A great to talk to you as always, David,
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us.
Speaker 5: My pleasure Dan.
Speaker 1: Anytime it's David Cohne.
Speaker 2: Five time Worlds. There's Champion. He's an analyst for the Yankees,
Speaker 2: Yes Network. He threw his perfect game at Yankee Stadium
Speaker 2: against the Exposing back in nineteen ninety nine. Ellen in
Speaker 2: Wisconsin leads us off this hour. Good morning, Ellen, what's
Speaker 2: on your mind?
Speaker 6: I just wanted to say what a great topic. Baseball
Speaker 6: gets a bad rind, you know, but the mental toughness
Speaker 6: and concentration that it requires is often overlooked. I'm a
Speaker 6: bigger sports fan than my husband. I raised my kids
Speaker 6: telling him. Everything you need to learn about life, you
Speaker 6: learn in baseball. Sometimes you have to sacrifice for the team.
Speaker 6: You know, the shortstop might hate the second basement, but
Speaker 6: they still have to work together to turn a double play.
Speaker 6: And even when greatness happens, you know, when a pitcher
Speaker 6: throws a no hitter, he turns around and banks his fielders.
Speaker 6: So that's all I got.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you Ellen, Thank you Ellen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you earn life through Baseball Jeremy in Indianapolish Jeremy.
Speaker 7: Hey, damn, how's it going great? Awesome? Hey, I just
Speaker 7: was listening to the podcast from me yesterday's so and
Speaker 7: you guys were talking about show Hey Athani, and with
Speaker 7: the trade deadline coming up, I was just kind of thinking,
Speaker 7: would it incentivize the Angels to try to convince him
Speaker 7: to just focus on hitting. I mean, I would think
Speaker 7: he could make a run at seventy three at Barry
Speaker 7: Bonds and that would be well worth paying him, you know,
Speaker 7: the six hundred million dollar contract.
Speaker 2: Well, he's focused on hitting and he's focused on pitching.
Speaker 2: And if I'm the Angels, I want show Hey to
Speaker 2: do what he wants to do. It's not like he's
Speaker 2: missing batting practice. Therefore he's not putting in the time
Speaker 2: when he goes to the plate, and judging from those
Speaker 2: home runs, he's done pretty well. I wouldn't mess with
Speaker 2: anything here.
Speaker 1: I went back.
Speaker 2: I go back to what I said yesterday. You know,
Speaker 2: we have this species known as pitchers, and we treat
Speaker 2: them differently than any other athlete and any other sports.
Speaker 1: Like, oh my god, did you get your your long
Speaker 1: toss in today? Did you get your stretching.
Speaker 2: In today, and when you think about it, sho, Hey,
Speaker 2: Utani is showing that, hey, I can still do this.
Speaker 2: You know, I can have a regular day. His day
Speaker 2: job is a hitter. His weekend job is a pitcher.
Speaker 2: So one one day out of the week, I got
Speaker 2: to concentrate on pitching. The other days, I just I'm
Speaker 2: a baseball player. You know, you go through the routine.
Speaker 2: You know it's going to be infield practice, there's going
Speaker 2: to be batting practice. They'll be stretching, running, you know
Speaker 2: all those things. But for the most part, you should
Speaker 2: be able to do both. If you're really good at
Speaker 2: a high level, you're a great pitcher and a great hitter,
Speaker 2: then why do you have to choose?
Speaker 1: If you're able to do it.
Speaker 2: Plus, he could be changing the dynamic of the sport,
Speaker 2: because trust me, most of your great pitchers are also
Speaker 2: shortstops growing up and batting third in the lineup.
Speaker 1: They grew up being a hitter. Nobody grows up to say, hey,
Speaker 1: I just want to pitch. I don't want to hit.
Speaker 2: You grow up you want to hit, and you're gonna
Speaker 2: have the best arm. You're the shortstop and you're going
Speaker 2: to be the pitcher. Shohyutani is proving that you can
Speaker 2: do both and do both at a very high level.
Speaker 2: How many players can do that? I think in fifteen
Speaker 2: years from now, we'll look back on this moment and
Speaker 2: we'll say, wow, look at the number of players. You
Speaker 2: might have a second baseman who's a middle relief pitcher
Speaker 2: or capable of doing that. Bring him in for an
Speaker 2: inning maybe. And pitchers are only going five innings for
Speaker 2: the most part. That's a quality start. You're not asking
Speaker 2: them to go nine, go five, maybe go six.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, he won six. How many pitches? You
Speaker 1: could still be a hit hitter, every day hitter, and
Speaker 1: you could be a pitcher.
Speaker 2: And what it does, you know, the excitement that it
Speaker 2: brings when you go out, always going to pitch and hit.
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Let's take a break, get some more phone calls coming

Speaker 2: Thank you, Todd, and uh I believe Will Ferrell was
Speaker 2: calling in to let us know if he's going to join.
Speaker 1: Us in Dublin.
Speaker 3: That's a very funny show right there. Yes, yes, it
Speaker 3: is very funny guys, Yes, Adam.
Speaker 2: Divine it has a funny face. Or I'm trying to
Speaker 2: figure out how to phrase this, like he's not funny looking,
Speaker 2: but when you see him you laugh, like he just
Speaker 2: he's a scene stealer. Yes, So can you say, is
Speaker 2: it a compliment to say you got a funny face?
Speaker 1: Hmm, yes, Tod.
Speaker 8: I think a better way to pose it is, you know,
Speaker 8: when you look at you like you're anticipating something funny,
Speaker 8: it's gonna come out of his mouth. You're like ready
Speaker 8: to lay h But that.
Speaker 1: That doesn't like just slip off the tongue here. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to but it's better.
Speaker 8: Than someone saying that what is saying I got a
Speaker 8: funny face? I'm funny looking? What does that mean? Even
Speaker 8: even if you have to elaborate a few extra.
Speaker 1: Words, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's it's quicker if you say, you know, is it
Speaker 2: a compliment? If I say you got a funny face.
Speaker 2: I say, no, okay, well you got a funny face.
Speaker 9: A Paul Adam Devine's like a scene stealer, you know,
Speaker 9: like he was in Workaholics, that TV show Forever. Yeah,
Speaker 9: he's also in Pitch Perfect. He was like that really
Speaker 9: funny guy who stole all the.
Speaker 1: Scenes they came on the screen.
Speaker 10: Maybe he's kind of got a little Jack Black to him.
Speaker 10: Oh he gets on this.
Speaker 9: You don't know what's going to happen, but he's like
Speaker 9: a kind of a home run hitter.
Speaker 1: He's going to join us on the program tomorrow.
Speaker 2: By the way, Todd, we didn't get to your poll
Speaker 2: questions if you would like to, and this wasn't on purpose.
Speaker 2: I just I'm getting around to it now that you
Speaker 2: had some suggestions earlier this morning.
Speaker 8: Throwing a perfect game is truly an amazing athletic achievement. Impressive,
Speaker 8: but surely some luck involved. Now, isn't that big a deal?
Speaker 8: Twenty three other guys already did it, and it was
Speaker 8: against Oakland.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 8: A seventeen year old's biggest concern should be finding a
Speaker 8: balance between academic goals and social acceptance, getting rid of
Speaker 8: his or her acne, finding a boy or girlfriend, becoming
Speaker 8: more independent and responsible, leading the Chicago Blackwawks to the
Speaker 8: Stanley Cup.
Speaker 1: So this is off of Connor Bedard going number one overall.
Speaker 8: Oh, it should be a seventeen year old's biggest concern?
Speaker 1: Is there anything else? Todd? How are you spending.
Speaker 8: NBA Free agency Eve? This is excited hosting a party
Speaker 8: at my home, making fancy dinner reservations, partying in the
Speaker 8: middle of Times Square, a quiet evening, occasionally pondering which
Speaker 8: players may be going to a new team.
Speaker 1: Do you believe anybody is doing one of the first
Speaker 1: three that.
Speaker 8: You just believe it's just to be silly.
Speaker 10: It's the eve.
Speaker 8: We get so excited about eves of things.
Speaker 1: No, we don't. I do that. I guess, well, then
Speaker 1: what are you going to do?
Speaker 8: I'm gonna do the latter. I'm gonna spend a quiet evening,
Speaker 8: maybe a order up.
Speaker 1: You just told me you get excited.
Speaker 8: I get excited, but not so much for the NBA
Speaker 8: free agency Maybe NBA.
Speaker 1: You're struggling here, You're struggling.
Speaker 8: I'm not going to stay in the middle of Time Square.
Speaker 8: There's no ball going down or anything like that.
Speaker 1: That was the silly great great.
Speaker 2: I can't wait for your recap of NBA free agency
Speaker 2: the start. How do you say to James Harden you
Speaker 2: don't want him back if you're the Philadelphia seventy six ers,
Speaker 2: or you're like, oh you're opting out?
Speaker 1: Oh oh yeah.
Speaker 3: See when are the Sixers ever going to find a
Speaker 3: player that they do want to keep other than Joel
Speaker 3: Embied Because other that they're running through they are just
Speaker 3: dozens of dudes who are like, yeah, no, this is
Speaker 3: the guy. Now, look you got a pair and go.
Speaker 3: They everybody that comes in is then sent right out.
Speaker 1: Yep. Feels like there's a big turnover.
Speaker 2: They got a new head coach and maybe maybe that's
Speaker 2: enough for James Harden. You know, Nick Nurse ask you
Speaker 2: to play defense. I don't like regular season James Harden
Speaker 2: was wonderful last year. It was postseason James that gets
Speaker 2: you in trouble.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Paul, do you think the seventy six Ers, if
Speaker 9: they sign or I know they're considering signing him, whether
Speaker 9: the opsent or ops out, I think concerned about losing
Speaker 9: him for nothing and the public perception as opposed to
Speaker 9: being more concerned of.
Speaker 1: Having Well, do you want to keep him or lose him.
Speaker 9: I would prefer to not have him on my team.
Speaker 9: At forty million dollars per year. However many years, whether
Speaker 9: it's one, two or three years. Why would you want
Speaker 9: to spend one hundred million dollars on a person where
Speaker 9: you're not sure he's helping you win or helping you lose.
Speaker 10: I think that's fair.
Speaker 2: Well, as he gets older, he can't be what he
Speaker 2: once was. You know, there's certain players that you know,
Speaker 2: the Joker is not going to slow down because he
Speaker 2: was never sped up to slow down. Luca is not
Speaker 2: slowing down. Kawhi only the injuries, but is the pace
Speaker 2: of you know, his play, It's not like he's slowing down.
Speaker 2: With James Harden, you know, it was predicated on some things,
Speaker 2: having that quick step, you know, getting some separation there.
Speaker 2: But twenty one to ten, I mean I'd embrace James Harden.
Speaker 2: Do I want to pay him forty or fifty million dollars?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: But you know that's the going rate. That's the problem.
Speaker 2: We're like, can you believe they're paying such and such
Speaker 2: thirty million? Yeah, there's only thirteen guys to pay, and
Speaker 2: somebody else is making a whole lot of money. If
Speaker 2: you're paying them that much money, I'm guessing the owners
Speaker 2: who are doing quite well.
Speaker 1: Therefore, when we look at this, you.
Speaker 2: Go, can you believe that this guy makes more in one,
Speaker 2: you know, one year than Magic made his entire career. Yes,
Speaker 2: you know, it's the economics of the game. But James Harden,
Speaker 2: you know, Dame Lillard, I mean, I feel bad if
Speaker 2: Dame Lillard stays in Portland. What's gonna happen at ESPN,
Speaker 2: Like people are are going to be panicking, like, oh
Speaker 2: my god, Now what do we talk about? Every time
Speaker 2: I'm watching it's like, uh, Dame time, you know, let's
Speaker 2: talk about Dame Lillard. I'm like, Okay, I think we
Speaker 2: can all agree both parties should separate, that Dame should
Speaker 2: go someplace else if he wants to win, that's important
Speaker 2: to him and he doesn't want to be part of
Speaker 2: a rebuild. And if you're Portland, you owe it to
Speaker 2: your fans to maybe get this right. As you look
Speaker 2: at the future and is the future now or is
Speaker 2: it in three years from now?
Speaker 1: Are you going to want to.
Speaker 2: Pay Dame Lillard sixty million dollars when he's thirty six
Speaker 2: thirty seven years of age and the answer is no.
Speaker 2: But that's where you have to look at this and say,
Speaker 2: at what point do we just say what is the
Speaker 2: best decison? And it feels like this is the conscious
Speaker 2: uncoupling that Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin had years ago.
Speaker 2: It's just like, you know, no, we're good. We're going
Speaker 2: to go our separate ways and no animosity. Everything's good,
Speaker 2: no irreconcilable differences. We just decided that this was best
Speaker 2: for both of us. Now, I keep thinking that Tyler
Speaker 2: Hero is the guy that maybe if you're Portland, you
Speaker 2: take him.
Speaker 1: You get some other pieces here.
Speaker 2: They don't want to give up Bam out of Bio
Speaker 2: in Miami because Dame wants to play with Bam out
Speaker 2: of Bio if he would happen to leave. But that
Speaker 2: still seems like that's a hot top. Kyrie Irving. Kyrie
Speaker 2: Irving is going to take meetings reportedly for free agency,
Speaker 2: and I'm thinking, isn't a meeting if you're the only
Speaker 2: person in the meeting? If he sets up a zoom
Speaker 2: call and all of a sudden, you know they'll be like,
Speaker 2: because I've done these interviews where you go, okay, next
Speaker 2: you're going to be talking to WBZ in Boston. Next
Speaker 2: up you'll be talking to this place in Phoenix, and
Speaker 2: you do a radio tour, TV tour. Who's next, Kyrie?
Speaker 2: Nobody's on right now, but you know we have time
Speaker 2: because who else is going to go? Let's take a
Speaker 2: free agency meeting with Kyrie Irving here. Mark Cuban is
Speaker 2: on the call. Oh okay, Hi Mark. Yeah, we'd like
Speaker 2: you to stay because we gave up an awful lot
Speaker 2: and we'd really look embarrassed if we lost you as well.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Paul, going back to Portland, do you think Portland,
Speaker 9: if they were going to trade them, would have done
Speaker 9: it before the draft, so you know what options you have.
Speaker 2: I think they were waiting until after the draft. But
Speaker 2: once again there's varying reports on this. I thought they
Speaker 2: were going to do. If they did it, Zion and
Speaker 2: Dame would be traded before then these teams that would,
Speaker 2: but they wanted to see what you were going to
Speaker 2: do with that pick, Like is Scoot Henderson going to
Speaker 2: be there at three? So now we're trading for Scoot
Speaker 2: head Henderson. We get Scoot Henderson, or you you have
Speaker 2: Scoot Henderson.
Speaker 1: We got Dame.
Speaker 2: You know, I thought that that might be the logic here,
Speaker 2: that you knew the player who Portland was going to take,
Speaker 2: or that Charlotte was going to take, or whoever it
Speaker 2: might be.
Speaker 1: But Zion do I still think he could be traded?
Speaker 2: I do, but I just don't think there's a great
Speaker 2: market for him because he hasn't been healthy. And then
Speaker 2: if he starts to play, well, do you then trade
Speaker 2: him or you to go no?
Speaker 1: Actually playing? Well? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Why why is it so difficult to get somebody to
Speaker 4: go play in Portland?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 2: I don't think I don't think it is. They's just
Speaker 2: a young team.
Speaker 1: Now. Who were you saying would not want to go
Speaker 1: play in Portland?
Speaker 3: Well, okay, then maybe the better way to say it is,
Speaker 3: why is it so difficult to find some people to
Speaker 3: put around Dame?
Speaker 2: Well, they have a young roster. They're trying to get
Speaker 2: some veterans in there, at least one.
Speaker 1: I think that's what. That's what they were trying to
Speaker 1: make a trade where they got Bam out of Bio.
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, but see again though, like that, they're trying
Speaker 3: to find a veteran but they just can't.
Speaker 1: Why is it so hard? I don't know what.
Speaker 2: They're Well, if I'm Miami, I'm not trading Bam out
Speaker 2: of Bio to Portland unless so you get Scoot Henderson
Speaker 2: and we give up BAM out of Bio. If I'm
Speaker 2: Miami's already small, I don't want to give up BAM
Speaker 2: out of Bio. So I think it might be what
Speaker 2: do you want? You know what, You're trying to get
Speaker 2: trade partners and you're trying to equal this up a
Speaker 2: little bit, and maybe that's the problem. But let me see, Oh,
Speaker 2: Fritzy sent this to me, Nick Wright, our good buddy,
Speaker 2: as a theory on how the Cabs could land both
Speaker 2: lebron and Bronnie James.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's see.
Speaker 2: Nick Wright has a theory. It starts with the Cabs
Speaker 2: drafted Evan Mobley twenty twenty one, and they drafted him
Speaker 2: out of USC, same university that Bronny is going to.
Speaker 2: And here is nick Wright's hypothesis. Evan Mobley plays for
Speaker 2: the Caves. Evan Mobley's father, Eric, is an assistant at USC.
Speaker 2: The Cabs traded away all their future first round picks
Speaker 2: except their twenty twenty four first round pick, which would
Speaker 2: be the year that Bronnie could come out of school,
Speaker 2: and that's if he was a one and done. Nick
Speaker 2: Wright then went on to say that the Caves are
Speaker 2: in need of a small forward and Lebron would be
Speaker 2: a perfect fit. Okay, so what else do you have
Speaker 2: beside a connection with Evan Mobley and his dad USC.
Speaker 2: Would Bronnie be available for the Cabs? Will Cleveland still
Speaker 2: have that pick? Can you afford to have Darius Garland,
Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley, Jared Allen and Lebron James? I
Speaker 2: think I need a little.
Speaker 1: More from that.
Speaker 2: Just because of Evan Mobley and his dad at USC,
Speaker 2: that Lebron would want to go back to Cleveland and
Speaker 2: bring Bronnie with him. I mean, okay, am I missing
Speaker 2: something there?
Speaker 1: I mean how many times can you go back?
Speaker 2: I don't think this is happening. Look, it's good filler
Speaker 2: and you know, God love Nick. He's you know, trying
Speaker 2: to come up with content for his show there on
Speaker 2: Fox Sports, and maybe it was a little bit of
Speaker 2: a stretch there. But the reason why Lebron and Bronnie
Speaker 2: would go back is because Evan Mobley and his dad
Speaker 2: is at USC. Okay, seems a little far fetched. I
Speaker 2: think it's more likely that Bronni ends up in Orlando
Speaker 2: than you know, Cleveland.
Speaker 1: Yes, Bo, did we do.
Speaker 9: A thing the other day who has more national TV
Speaker 9: games this upcoming season?
Speaker 10: The Nuggets or the USC men's basketball team.
Speaker 1: We did not ask that question. No, we did the
Speaker 1: Nuggets and.
Speaker 4: Oh man, we did somebody else though, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh no, Spurs, oh nugget Spurs.
Speaker 2: Yes, and I said the Spurs might have more nashally
Speaker 2: televised game.
Speaker 9: It's weird because college basketball, I believe or not ESPN
Speaker 9: and Fox, but especially ESPN, they have total control over
Speaker 9: who's on the league has control more so in the partners.
Speaker 9: So like when Zion Wiyson was a fresh mysell my
Speaker 9: notes from it. He played thirty five games for Duke,
Speaker 9: thirty one of them were on national TV, basic cable
Speaker 9: that you could get. And then when he in the
Speaker 9: next year, he had eleven games when he is riki
Speaker 9: year or on national TV. Yeah, they just couldn't get
Speaker 9: that many games. I bet you can get more attention,
Speaker 9: not attention, but playing college at USC more a national
Speaker 9: TV games.
Speaker 2: Well, we're more curious about Brownie than we are Joker.
Speaker 2: We can appreciate Joker. That doesn't mean we want to
Speaker 2: watch the Joker play. And thankfully, you know, the basketball
Speaker 2: world got to see Joker play at a very high
Speaker 2: level and he won a championship here, and nobody is
Speaker 2: going to ask that question ever again. Oh, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: win a chant Now it's Joe ellmbiid, Hey won the MVP.
Speaker 2: These are the same things they said about Joker. Yeah,
Speaker 2: no postseason success, same things they said about Yell.
Speaker 1: Honest. Now it's on Joel MBI. You're the MVP. Let's go,
Speaker 1: let's produce, and rightfully, so that's what happens.
Speaker 2: That's the pecking order and the fact that you know,
Speaker 2: Joker two MVPs should have won a third and then
Speaker 2: he wins his title. You're not gonna question nobody's gonna
Speaker 2: question you honest again about that.
Speaker 1: Luca. Luca had won the MVP yet, but if he does.
Speaker 2: Then it's gonna be. Hey, you're gonna win a championship
Speaker 2: anytime soon?
Speaker 11: Yeah, Mark, I can't wait to see how the Lakers
Speaker 11: and the USC schedule kind of stacks up against one another, like, oh,
Speaker 11: they're playing you know us, he's playing Duke. Oh, the
Speaker 11: Lakers are playing in Charlotte. Same who knew the night
Speaker 11: before or something like that.
Speaker 1: Oh you think that they're gonna match up that way?
Speaker 10: Oh you want to program something?
Speaker 9: Have USC play blank at the crypt wherever it's gonna
Speaker 9: be called next year as a lead up to a
Speaker 9: Laker game a special addition, back to back national team.
Speaker 10: If you're gonna embrace it all in.
Speaker 2: I don't think ESPN could handle that. Our heads would explode.
Speaker 2: What time does the pregame start?
Speaker 1: There?
Speaker 11: Oh?
Speaker 1: Now two hours like today?
Speaker 8: Doublebron.
Speaker 10: You get the high school kid? What is the little kid? Bryce?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 10: Is it Bryce? Show his JV game or whatever?
Speaker 1: He'll be high school? Okay, he'll be high school.
Speaker 11: He went to a new school. He left the Eric Canyon.
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, it's all over the internet there it is
Speaker 11: what the young kids said.
Speaker 1: Where did he go? No idea? Is it closer to
Speaker 1: USC from under? Yeah? Okay, Campbell Hall? How about a
Speaker 1: triple header? There?
Speaker 2: There you go, Brice bron Lebron James Gang Night, Oh okay.
Speaker 1: Blue Bryce Maximus James the third.
Speaker 10: Does he have a daughter playing softball or something?
Speaker 1: He has a daughter?
Speaker 10: Get her in there too.
Speaker 1: He might have two daughters. He got one one daughter? Okay? Three?
Speaker 8: King's Night why do we We gotta come up with
Speaker 8: a little phrase.
Speaker 2: From Okay, I think that'd be good TV.
Speaker 11: You can't wait for this? Why so much Lebron? Oh
Speaker 11: thought it was a lot? Then here's a second Lebron
Speaker 11: coming we've.
Speaker 1: Got at times four.

Speaker 9: Well, we already gave a rousing tribute to Limbiscuit a
Speaker 9: few weeks ago on the show A still being I
Speaker 9: don't want to be redundant do that again.
Speaker 10: But they are very nineties rousing tribute.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and resonated. It resonated in the nineties community. Yes,
Speaker 2: time think I may.
Speaker 8: Have to go juicy, the notorious big that fell into
Speaker 8: nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1: You're supposed to save it tomorrow.
Speaker 11: Then you're supposed to guess, like whose pick it was?
Speaker 10: Is Creed nineties or early two thousands?
Speaker 1: There forever they are timeless.
Speaker 9: Apologies to say that, I apologize, they are forever My apology.
Speaker 10: Ace of Base Hanson, those three kids, I feel.
Speaker 3: I feel like Creed was a mid to late nineties
Speaker 3: post grunge movement.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 11: I mean black Hole Sun maybe.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's so Soundgarden, Sound Garden, Chris Cornell, yep, man,
Speaker 2: that's that's one of the great voices in rock history.
Speaker 2: Chris Cornell. That's good voice. Yeah, that's a good voice.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 10: You know that band from the nineties, Bush with Kevin Rossdale.
Speaker 10: They considered pretty good. They had some hits, right, was
Speaker 10: he too good looking to like?
Speaker 1: I think?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: I think he cheated on when Stefani. Therefore that kind
Speaker 1: of heard him. Yeah, you know, it's like now what
Speaker 1: are you doing? I think they had one alum one
Speaker 1: good album. Does that sound right? I remember having the
Speaker 1: CD boy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they had the one that had a bunch that
Speaker 3: had like glycerine and everything's in it had like a
Speaker 3: bunch of probably.
Speaker 1: Their bigger songs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well sixteen stone I think it's called Okay.
Speaker 1: So they got to come up with a ninety song. Yeah,
Speaker 1: send him to me tonight.
Speaker 9: Creed formed in ninety five in Tallahassee, Florida, and then
Speaker 9: they really hit their stride beers later.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: How old is Scott Stapp's son whose name is was Jagger?
Speaker 2: I remember he was in a carriage, a baby carriage.
Speaker 2: We were playing golf at an event and I was
Speaker 2: I was in his group, and I remember his wife
Speaker 2: and they had a son.
Speaker 1: His name was Jagger.
Speaker 10: Jagger's staff is twenty five years old.
Speaker 1: Yeah, weird, it's Yeager. It's yeah, it's actually Jaeger. Yeah,
Speaker 1: stop it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not Mick Jagger because I think I I
Speaker 2: don't remember anything else about that day playing golf other
Speaker 2: than he had a newborn name Jagger, and I'd ask
Speaker 2: him and he had said it was for Mick Jagger.
Speaker 11: Yes, is that from with the Arms Wide Open? Is
Speaker 11: that who he's talking about? Like, He's like, well, I
Speaker 11: just heard oh.
Speaker 1: I think so.
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I don't know that's what that song is about.
Speaker 3: It's about learning that he's becoming a father. Oh okay,
Speaker 3: I think that makes a lot of sense. Marvin, Hey,
Speaker 3: I have I had the lyrics? Well, I just heard
Speaker 3: the news.
Speaker 1: World going to change.
Speaker 10: Not singing to them please do?
Speaker 1: Oh god?
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't know if I'm ready to be the
Speaker 9: man I have to be. Yeah, it seems like it's
Speaker 9: about new baby. Do you like him more?
Speaker 7: Now?
Speaker 3: Scott's deb I actually have an original like demo tape
Speaker 3: of that album with their phone number on it from
Speaker 3: my wife was a DJ in Tallahassee at the time.
Speaker 3: She's like one of the group of people that broke
Speaker 3: that band.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they gave her their number to her.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, because you know, you pass out
Speaker 3: demo tapes and trying to get on the radio and
Speaker 3: stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, last call for phone calls this day
Speaker 2: sports history. The is Adam Devine a comedian or is
Speaker 2: he just an actor?
Speaker 10: I think he's a hybrid of slash.
Speaker 1: Okay, because he's going to join us. I'm just not
Speaker 1: sure how to introduce her.
Speaker 10: Actor comedian as we do with Sailor actor.
Speaker 1: Comedian or is he comedian actor?
Speaker 9: You asked Sailor this once and he goes, if you
Speaker 9: call me a comedian, I'd be fine.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: Will Ferrell, I think is going to join us to
Speaker 2: let us know now he's he's an actor comedian.
Speaker 10: But if if he had to boil it down to one,
Speaker 10: I don't know.
Speaker 1: If Will would be a comedian. I think he'd be
Speaker 1: an actor. I think he's an actor. I don't know
Speaker 1: if he's ever done stand though. He's an improv guy,
Speaker 1: not a stand up.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, And I think he's going to join us
Speaker 2: to talk about if he's going to join us in
Speaker 2: Doublin don't. I haven't heard back on any time there
Speaker 2: Todd that he's going to.
Speaker 1: Join us, but just letting you know cool.
Speaker 2: Alrighty Steven Syracuse, Hi, Steve, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 13: Well? As far as the perfect game, great accomplishment, but
Speaker 13: I think it's going to happen more often because of
Speaker 13: the extreme lack of contact hitters. There's no more Rod
Speaker 13: Cruz or Tony Gwinn's you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Wade Boggs. I mean, run down the list there.
Speaker 2: Nobody cares about hitting, you know, getting base hits. That's
Speaker 2: why I thought there would be more no hitters, because
Speaker 2: everybody's swinging, swinging hard. Whereas you know, it used to
Speaker 2: be if you were getting no hit in the sixth inning,
Speaker 2: you were laying down a bunch like whatever it took,
Speaker 2: you were going to break up that no hitter. This
Speaker 2: day in sports history, Pauline, what do you have?
Speaker 10: Not a lot today?
Speaker 9: Eighteen ninety seven, cub score thirty six runs in a
Speaker 9: game against Louisville. They had a team back then that
Speaker 9: was the records for runs in a game. Nineteen forty one,
Speaker 9: Joe Demajo got his forty second base hit in a row,
Speaker 9: broke George Sissler's record. From nineteen twenty two and nineteen
Speaker 9: fifty eight, Brazil debated Sweden Seweden in the World Cup.
Speaker 9: Pele at age seventeen, scored a goal.
Speaker 10: In the game.
Speaker 1: It was on this date.
Speaker 2: In two thousand and six, the NBA introduced a new
Speaker 2: synthetic game ball, and it didn't last long because they changed.
Speaker 1: Back to the leather.
Speaker 2: I have one of those synthetic and synthetic based basketballs
Speaker 2: right there, right as you come into my office here
Speaker 2: in the man cave.
Speaker 1: I didn't like it at all. Too slick.
Speaker 2: Oh, here's one on this date in nineteen o five.
Speaker 2: It's a scene out of a famous movie took place.
Speaker 2: So it took place before the scene out of the
Speaker 2: famous movie took place.
Speaker 1: What was the year nineteen oh five? Sports movie?

Speaker 4: The Horse Like War Admiral or whatever.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, Outfielder Archibald Moonlight. Graham plays one inning
Speaker 2: and the Giants went over Brooklyn. The ninth inning ended
Speaker 2: with Graham in the on deck circle. He is later
Speaker 2: immortalized in the novel and movie Field of Dreams. It
Speaker 2: becomes a doctor. I think we all remember.
Speaker 1: That what was his wife's name. It's gonna be mad
Speaker 1: at him for getting a homestol lake. Oh think it's
