10
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: real stuff, you know, like yesterday what your favorite blizzard is.

11
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: It's important we get to the bottom of these things.

12
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: No wrong answers, unless you have a problem with Oreo

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 1: cookie or or or Reese's peanut butter cup. Then we

14
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: got we're gonna squab over at Scuagernooe. You know, we

15
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: were at Packer camp the other day and everybody's raving

16
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: about Matt Golden, there wide receiver that they draft in

17
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: the first round, first one they drafted since two thousand

18
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: and two in the first round, and you know you

19
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: almost start to go like, yeah, there's kind of a

20
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,559
Speaker 1: little bit more pressure on him to be good right away.

21
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: Because heck, if we're gonna if you if you're finally

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: going to use a first round pick on a wide receiver,

23
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: he'd better be a good one, because there's been a

24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: plenty of other ones that you're like, hey, could have

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: taken in, may have been good and you didn't. Well,

26
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears have used first round picks before on quarterbacks,

27
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 1: but because they haven't really had in our lifetime a

28
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback, you're like that guy's stud. It stands the

29
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: reason that Cata Williams going number one overall, there'd be

30
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: a lot more attention and maybe a lot more expectations

31
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: of him. Then you factor in some of his quirkiness

32
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: when he was more at usc than at Oklahoma. Uh,

33
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: and the story coming out that he preferred to be

34
00:01:52,520 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: a Viking not a Bear, and you start to think, well, yeah,

35
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: it's kind of the same thing. They've drafted quarterbacks. But

36
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: if you're gonna take one number one overall, hed better

37
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 1: be able to play. Better, be able to play and

38
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 1: still very much up for discussion. How good is he? Uh?

39
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: This is Caleb Williams when he was asked about outside

40
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: noise and how much pressure he feels going in two

41
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: year two.

42
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: Pressure isn't uh. Pressure is not a thing for me.

43
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: I don't, you know, think of life that way in

44
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: the situation that I'm in and so, uh, you know,

45
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 2: we keep chugging along and you know there's gonna be

46
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 2: ups and downs, and it's not you know, it's not

47
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: my job to care about what the outside, you know,

48
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 2: noises and things like that. My job is take care

49
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 2: of everything in here and go out there and play,

50
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: you know, And I didn't you know, I uh, I

51
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 2: know we didn't win as many you know games as

52
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: we wanted to last year, but you know I didn't. Uh,

53
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: I didn't go twenty and twenty in interceptions and things

54
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: like that. So you know, take it for what you want.

55
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 2: But you know, pressure is uh prefer pressure is a

56
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: prev But you know, in the situation that I'm at,

57
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: I don't think I have pressure.

58
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna disagree there. I don't think anybody you have.

59
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson's your head coach. And I mean he turned

60
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: what everyone thought was just a very average quarterback into

61
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: a franchise quarterback and a potential Super Bowl champion quarterback.

62
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: Granted he'd been in a super Bowl before. In Jared

63
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: goff but into a guy who you know. Was that

64
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: The Rams thought they upgraded when they got Matt Stafford.

65
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: I think they did, but it doesn't appear to be

66
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: that much of an upgrade. Golf's been healthier and probably

67
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: been more consistent. Obviously Stafford won them a super Bowl,

68
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: but golf's been healthier and more consistent. And Ben Johnson

69
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: gets a lot and deserves a lot of that credit.

70
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: Now he's got Kata Williams. It's his first team. You

71
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: have a coach who is an offensive guru who didn't

72
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: draft you. There should be pressure there. I think there

73
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: is pressure there, and part of the idea of playing

74
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: guys early and playing guys in the rookie year is

75
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: that you see some of the evolution come much more

76
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: quickly than before. It wasn't like he had a bang

77
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: up first year. If it doesn't start great in his

78
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: second year, there'll be questions. Do I think there's, hey,

79
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: we need to draft another quarterback next year. No, But

80
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: I also don't think there have been enough moments that

81
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: we go when we get our guy, this is our

82
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: guy for twenty years, for twenty years. So that's where

83
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: the pressure level is. It could go really bad. It

84
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 1: could go really well. It probably lands in the middle,

85
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: and we probably start talking about real pressure next year.

86
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: But I don't think it's crazy to talk talk about

87
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: there being some amount of pressure.

88
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 2: On.

89
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: I was going to say Trey Lance on Caleb Williams

90
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: this year, and there's some similarities there with with what's

91
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 1: happening with the Packers. Packers have visions of grandeur of

92
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: getting to a Super Bowl. Vikings have essentially a rookie

93
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: starting at quarterback. All right, the Lions, you know, offensive

94
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: coordinator is now the head coach of the Bears, and

95
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: they lost some personnel as well. There's reasonablieve that the Bears,

96
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: who turned over their offensive line change some things look

97
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: competitive at the end of the year, that this should

98
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: be a year to take a big step. If he's

99
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: not able to take a big step with them, they'll

100
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: be questions. I don't think it's hey, we need to

101
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: get out of Kayleb Williams business, but not yet. Remember

102
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: this is a coach who did not draft the quarterback,

103
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 1: did not draft the quarterback, and when he was taking

104
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: number one overall, not only are the questions about where

105
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: he wanted to be draft, but there were questions about

106
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: how he handled the losing when he was at USC

107
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: which is fair because he didn't handle it well. II Though,

108
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: how much pressure do you think is is Caleb Williams.

109
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 3: Center depends on his habits of being on social media.

110
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 3: I just think there's like this weird vortex with being

111
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 3: a Chicago Bears quarterback. And something you said really stuck

112
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 3: with me that they really have not had a premier

113
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 3: quarterback literally in our lifetimes. I mean, the closest you

114
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 3: could say is obviously Jim McMahon because they won a

115
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 3: Super Bowl with him, although the defense was the strength

116
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 3: of the team and Jim Harbaugh had a good run there.

117
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 3: But aside from that, I mean, who are the top

118
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 3: Who's the top Who's the top quarterback in the literal

119
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 3: history of the Chicago Bears. One doesn't leap to mind

120
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 3: you think of running backs of Walter Baton and Gail Sayers,

121
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 3: But there seems to be some like vortex when it

122
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 3: comes to the Chicago Bear.

123
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 4: The guys who have had set, the guys who I

124
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 4: don't know where just came out.

125
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: Nowhere else just guess I would guess they've all had

126
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: that at some point.

127
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 4: The guys who have had success being in Chicago, like

128
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 4: any amount of success. We'd be talking about Cutler a

129
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 4: little bit and Rex Grossman and Rex Grossman. I remember,

130
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 4: he could have amazing games and they could have games

131
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 4: where he absolutely imploded, like if their offense was humming,

132
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 4: he was throwing a bunch of touchdowns, but when it

133
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 4: started to go bad, it was just an implosion. And

134
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 4: then Cutler. I don't really know even what to make

135
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 4: of the cut.

136
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: Like everybody hated Jay Cutler. Don't mention it. No, I'm

137
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: just saying, but Rex Grossman and Rex Grossman. No, I'm

138
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: telling you in Chicago, like in Chicago.

139
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 4: I'm just talking about success though, not how he's perceived. Okay,

140
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 4: I don't I don't know he made it.

141
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: Remember Rex Grossman took him to a Super Bowl and

142
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: the week of the Super Bowl, Lovey Smith is their

143
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: head coach of the I had to come out and

144
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: say Rex Schrosman is our quarterback. That that actually happened.

145
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: People are like, man, you gotta pull Rex Grossman like

146
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: he stinks, Like, hey, Rex Grossman's our quarterback. So that

147
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: that's how good Rex Grossman is. You know Caid mc

148
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: mc McCown, Remember Kaid McCown. He was the first round

149
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: pick out of UCLA lefty. I mean you go back

150
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: through that, you're like, oh my, I totally forgot that

151
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: was the Bears quarterback that year.

152
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 4: Didn't he come in for Jake Cutler when he was

153
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 4: injured in the NFC Championship game versus the Packers. I

154
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 4: feel like that that might have happened, could be wrong.

155
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 5: Uh.

156
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 4: And then I also you think about Mitch Trubisky, who

157
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 4: was what second overall? He was taking guy and and

158
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 4: he of a lot of people, he made it the playoffs.

159
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 4: A lot of people feel like it could have worked

160
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 4: with who is his coach, mister Weiser. A lot of

161
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 4: people think that maybe it could have worked out if

162
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 4: he stuck around or if those two kept working together.

163
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 4: But he was shipped out of town. But that's the

164
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 4: highest pick that they've taken. They probably didn't do it.

165
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 3: He's talking about Matt and Eggy.

166
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, Matt Naggie, Yeah, yeah, they made it to playoffs

167
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 4: and uh, and then it just sort of the wheels

168
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 4: fell off. But a lot of people are like, well,

169
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 4: I don't know if uh, mich Trubisky had enough time

170
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,359
Speaker 4: in Chicago to really prove or disprove his pick.

171
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 3: That was the double Joint game. If I'm not mistaken, right,

172
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 3: they're one trip to the playoffs.

173
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yep, yep, yeah, go ahead.

174
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I think that Caleb Williams with

175
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 4: the change in coaching he's got Ben Johnson, if it

176
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 4: was the same coach two or three years in a row,

177
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 4: I feel like that pressure is going to bear down

178
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 4: on you. But when you have a new coach, you

179
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 4: have like you're allowed a little bit of grace to

180
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 4: kind of adjust to that. And if Ben Johnson really

181
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 4: does know what he's doing and talking about, then you

182
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 4: probably don't feel a ton of pressure like this is

183
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 4: going to work out because Ben Johnson is, you know,

184
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 4: is gonna save us. So I think Caleb's probably you know,

185
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 4: I've got a new coach. I can there can be

186
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 4: a little slippache, but I'm learning, yep.

187
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: So do we think he's I do I think anybody's

188
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: under pressure, because we expect anybody to be. We're in

189
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: a microwave society. But I also think you have a

190
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: coach who people think is his quarterback guru, and if

191
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: you don't see distinct improvement, then there's going to be

192
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 1: a lot of whispers of this might not be the guy.

193
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 5: I mean.

194
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: The big thing with Kayta Williams is the ability to

195
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: throw the ball downfield and throw it accurately, not throw

196
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: what's called hospital balls. You know what hospital ball is?

197
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 3: Right, I've never heard that term before until today. Oh

198
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 3: really no?

199
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 6: Yeah?

200
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: Do tell uh Sam, do you know what a hospital

201
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: ball is?

202
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 3: Sounds like something that will be uncomfortable, but all right,

203
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 3: I do not.

204
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,719
Speaker 6: I think DeVante Adams referred to the hospital balls that

205
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 6: Garoppolo used to throw it them all the time.

206
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 3: Oh is it when you throw your receivers so they

207
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 3: get smashed by a linebacker?

208
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: Yeah? They foy it floats ongnya float site doesn't have

209
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: that doesn't have the perfect amount of zip and it

210
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: allows guys to just tee off on you. Hospitaball.

211
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 4: They get a little running start yep, and they.

212
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: Starts, they start, they start salivating, They start salivating. It's

00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. I got a question for you guys. Okay,

228
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: a little off script question, but it's a good one.

229
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 1: I think, Hey, I think have you guys seen these

230
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: numbers where Las Vegas is down eleven percent in tourism

231
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: revenue year to year? And what you'll get is you'll

232
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: get you're getting people that will say, well, this is

233
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 1: because of the economic policies of the current administration. Then

234
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 1: you have others. I saw this woman who's a she's

235
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: on Fox News. Uh, it's because of the dying boomer phenomenon.

236
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: Flashy loud tackie, crowded and inauthentic. Younger generations don't want

237
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: it that they don't want the Vegas thing. Then you

238
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: have other people that will say, well, it's because you

239
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: can gamble from your home right, which, by the way,

240
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 1: Vegas is known it's coming. That's why they've made it

241
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: into kind of a travel destination. They have They've always

242
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: had shows, sphere has incredible concert right, resorts, golf, et cetera,

243
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: et cetera, and look, there's always there's always gonna be

244
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: people like, yeah, only Vegas, only Vegas. I just don't.

245
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: I just don't buy that. Year to year, all of

246
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: a sudden people woke up and goes, you know what,

247
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: I don't like Vegas. I'm not going this year. Eleven

248
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 1: percent is big. That's a big drop.

249
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 3: This is unscientific, but it's also not something to dismiss.

250
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 3: Judging by my Facebook timeline with all my friends, which

251
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 3: is different than the people I follow on Twitter and Instagram,

252
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 3: Vegas to me seems to be as popular as ever

253
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 3: because I can't go a few days without somebody on

254
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 3: Facebook posting pictures of their excursion to Vegas. I think

255
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 3: the sphere is a great point, right, now you cannot

256
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 3: find a place like the sphere anywhere else in America.

257
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 3: And my other comment about this is, Okay, if Vegas

258
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 3: is out, what's the new Vegas? Where are people going now?

259
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 3: Is it Nashville? Is it Austin? Is it et cetera,

260
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 3: et cetera.

261
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: We Well, part of it is also I think the

262
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: the guess is that most of the numbers being down

263
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: as the international tourism, you know.

264
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 3: So they might be going to other places like I

265
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 3: don't know, Singapore, Hong Kong, you know, places in Europe,

266
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 3: et cetera.

267
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 4: I would say another thing I've heard, I've only been

268
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 4: actually just took my first trip to Las Vegas in

269
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 4: late June. I'd never been to Las Vegas.

270
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 3: Iowa Sam effect. Maybe it's that no offense.

271
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 4: I think I've heard from people that Vegas is just

272
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 4: more expensive than it's ever been. Like you, you don't

273
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 4: get as many free rooms, comped rooms, comped meals. You know,

274
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 4: back are they say, when the mobsters ran in, you

275
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 4: had a lot more stuff that was for free.

276
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 5: Oh.

277
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 3: Absolutely, And it's.

278
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 4: More expensive now. And I think every thing you every

279
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 4: reason you listed, Doug is true. I think that maybe

280
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 4: new generations aren't as interested in it. I think that

281
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 4: what were the other it was also some of the

282
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 4: other reasons.

283
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: I mean, look, you know, I think all of that

284
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: can I think both of these things can be true.

285
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 4: And gambling in your own state, you can gamble like

286
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 4: on your phone, you can gamble in a casino.

287
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: Right, But there's a certain something about Vegas when you

288
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: go there that it becomes okay because it's Vegas. I

289
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: still think Vegas has an allure to it. I do.

290
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: I don't think all of that stuff could be true.

291
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: You don't drop double digits and percentage of tourism unless

292
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: there's some major economic factor at play. What we're talking

293
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: about is like a drip drip, drip, drip drip. You know,

294
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: a percent here, percent there starts to go down. More

295
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: people find different things to do, different place to gamble,

296
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: it becomes cheesy whatever. That's undeniable if that does, in

297
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: fact happen. I think that part of it is. I

298
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: actually think Vegas is mar Spencer because it's nicer. There's

299
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: like smoke free casinos, there's other things. I'm a big

300
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: I'm actually a Vegas guy. I turned down a Vegas

301
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 1: trip this weekend, which I was excited about because my

302
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: daughter Grace is in town. So we're going to Dor

303
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: County this weekend, which is like, yeah, it's nice.

304
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 4: You got some white sand beaches up there.

305
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: I don't think they have white sand beaches.

306
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 4: They have white there are white sand beaches.

307
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: Work County.

308
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 4: Well, yes, because I did a sea kayaking trip on

309
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 4: Lake Superior around the Apostle Islands and there were these

310
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 4: beautiful white sand beaches.

311
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: And Dork County in Lake Michigan at Lakes Spirit.

312
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 4: Well, I've seen pictures of Dan and I have shared

313
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 4: a picture of like these beaches in Door County that

314
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 4: are look like they're in the Caribbean.

315
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean we're headed there, so.

316
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 3: Jamaica. It's the county of the South.

317
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: I think it's I just again, I think it's interesting.

318
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting because Vegas has Vegas is like

319
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 1: a real sports city. Now, NFL team gonna have a

320
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 1: major League baseball team, eventually they do have a hockey team.

321
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, I thought the A's were moving there.

322
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: They are.

323
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 3: I said eventually, no, but you said a major league team. No,

324
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 3: I'm just kidding. It was an anti age.

325
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 1: See what you did there. There's also tell me if

326
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: you think this part is weird. I talked about this

327
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 1: yesterday where where Lebron, you know, he had that meeting

328
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,439
Speaker 1: and his Maverick Carter is starting this league, you know,

329
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: International League. That the NBA is talking about some sort

330
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,360
Speaker 1: of connections with some of the FOBA teams. I do

331
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: wonder if they're gonna press pause on expanding to Vegas.

332
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: I don't know. I need to talk Major League Baseball

333
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: JP Morosi. We'll do that in a second, because yesterday

334
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: was a trade deadline. Twins basically get rid of half

335
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: their roster, some other interesting selloffs, and we'll talk Jay

336
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: stew Off the Ledge in terms of what the Dodgers

337
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: did yesterday. Thanks for listening to The Doug Gotleep Show podcast.

00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. JP Morose jump on ROSSI joins us

344
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio MLB Insider of course, he's an MLB

345
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: network reporter. He joins us on the Doug Gotlip Show

346
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. I believe this is the first

347
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: time in probably ten years, maybe more, we've ever mentioned

348
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: the name Minnesota Twins on Fox Sports Radio.

349
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 5: Right, what what I think?

350
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 2: So?

351
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 1: What is the reaction in baseball? Though? To what they

352
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: did yesterday on the trade deadline?

353
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 5: They made just about everyone available, with the possible exception

354
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 5: of the adorable mascot TC Bear, which is certainly an

355
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 5: iconic part of the organization. Doug, so, TC Bear is

356
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 5: in place. Joe Ryan didn't move, nor did Byron Buxton,

357
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 5: but just about everyone else who's on the active roster did.

358
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 5: And it was almost as though within a day they

359
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 5: did something comparable to what the Marlins did years ago.

360
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 5: Recall when they built up quickly and then all of

361
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 5: a sudden a year later they did the opposite. It

362
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 5: felt a little bit like that, and except for what

363
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 5: happened in one day in the middle of the season.

364
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 5: Really important context here, Doug is the team is up

365
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 5: for sale, and when teams are up for sale, doesn't

366
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 5: matter what support it is. They don't operate in a

367
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 5: normal headspace and a normal financial practice because they're going

368
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 5: through a transition of ownership, and by the way, they

369
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 5: don't even know who the incoming owner is going to

370
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 5: be yet, so there's a lot of a lot of uncertainty.

371
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 5: And it seems to me that there was a very

372
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 5: clear mandate to bring the payroll down, which they did,

373
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 5: get younger, which they did, and obviously try to have

374
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 5: a better team years down the road than what they

375
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 5: have right now, all of which they have achieved. And

376
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 5: I think when you look at everything through the lens

377
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 5: of when the team's up for sale, that's when things

378
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 5: can get fairly extreme, and yesterday was a very extreme day,

379
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 5: and it honestly could have gotten even more extreme if

380
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 5: they had moved Joe Ryan. I was sold in the

381
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 5: last hour before the deadline that the Red Sox have

382
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 5: made an effort to acquire Joe Ryan as one of

383
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 5: the top young right anders in the game, and they

384
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 5: were not able to come to come to an agreement.

385
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 5: But the Red Sox tried. The Twins were listening on

386
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 5: everybody at every position. They had three This was really

387
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 5: the deadline to move relievers and and just off the

388
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 5: top of my head, they moved four of their guys.

389
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 5: It was a staggering amount of activity for Derek Falvey

390
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 5: in his front office.

391
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: Okay, so who you know. I was looking at at

392
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: at what the Brewers did, right they go and get

393
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: Danny Janssen and Shelby Miller. Felt like the Brewers were

394
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 1: the ones that they had a really good focus. But

395
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 1: if you were to say this team, who's a playoff team,

396
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 1: improved themselves the most, what would what would that team be?

397
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 5: The San Diego Padres. That's the straightforward answer, and I

398
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 5: think that it's the correct one in terms of what

399
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,639
Speaker 5: they did. Their bullpen is now one of the very

400
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 5: best we've seen anywhere, and and the the additions they

401
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 5: made to their lineup are really important too. Freddy Ferman

402
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 5: behind the plate. Again, he's not maybe a household name

403
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 5: for our listeners right now, but really good defensive catcher

404
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 5: who has shown some offensive upside. Was never going to

405
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 5: be the guy in Kansas City because of Salvador Perez

406
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 5: being there as a future Hall of Famer, But I

407
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 5: think for mean really helps the Padres. Ryan O'Hearn's going

408
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 5: to help the Padres. Ramon Loreano's gonna help the Padres.

409
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 5: In addition to what they did on the pitching side

410
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 5: of things, with the addition of Mason Miller and JP

411
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 5: Series and very importantly Doug not trading the likes of

412
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 5: Dylan Season Robert Swada. So the Padres, for me, excuse me,

413
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 5: the Podres, I think they really upgrade themselves. And I

414
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 5: think on the American League side of things, the Seattle Mariners,

415
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 5: they're the one team in the American League that have

416
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 5: never appeared in a World Series. They're clearly intent on

417
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 5: changing that. I thought the addition of both aohanneo Suadas

418
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 5: a couple of days ago, and of course Josh Naylor

419
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 5: last week was really impressive. So who knows. You could

420
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 5: see a very unexpected World Series matchup between the Mariners

421
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 5: and Padres, which I know would not exactly be the

422
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 5: first choice of Jason Stewart.

423
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: Dog Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, what about

424
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. What'd you think of their additions to the bullpen?

425
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 5: They did okay, This was not a disastrous deadline for

426
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 5: the Dodgers. They did okay, But they really seem to

427
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 5: be doubling down on their current players being healthy and

428
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 5: effective this season, which, as anyone who has been in Solona, California, knows.

429
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 5: Has not really been the case for a lot of

430
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 5: this year. They have had some inconsistencies, They've had a

431
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 5: lot of injuries. They're really banking on Otani being able

432
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 5: to start for them in the playoffs. They're banking on

433
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 5: Blake Snell being healthy. I just don't know if that's

434
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 5: the right expectation right now. To be honest with you,

435
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 5: I look at the mechanics of the National League West,

436
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 5: and I believe even with a three game head start,

437
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 5: I like what the Padres have right now a bit

438
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 5: more than the Dodgers. I like what the I like

439
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 5: what the and elsewhere in the National I like what

440
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 5: the Phillies did at the deadline. I like what the

441
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 5: Mets did at the deadline. There were I think, more

442
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 5: effective deadlines than what the what the Dodgers did. And

443
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 5: while listen, there's still otherf Aenny World Zo champions. They

444
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 5: still have Otani and Freeman and Smith and Bets and Taoscar.

445
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 5: They still have a really good team. But are they

446
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 5: the best team in the National League right now? I

447
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 5: think the answer to that question right now is no, Wow?

448
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: Wow? Is that the Brewers? Is that the best team they.

449
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 5: Are right now? I think they are the best team

450
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 5: at the moment. But I look at it as a

451
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 5: really wide open NL. I know a lot of people

452
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 5: if at all the American League is wide open, the

453
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 5: National League is wide open because I don't see a

454
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 5: single dominant team. I will tell you right now, it's

455
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 5: the Brewers right now the best team in the National League.

456
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 5: But I like what the Cubs have done overall. They

457
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 5: had a bit of a quiet deadline, but I think

458
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 5: in general they're a very well balanced team. And again

459
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 5: the Phillies bringing in Yan Duran, they addressed what was

460
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 5: a made the weakness for them. The Mets added multiple

461
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 5: leverage relievers. I look at this as being a wide

462
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 5: open National League in which the Dodgers really did not

463
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 5: distinguish themselves at the deadline, and so I think that

464
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 5: there's a better, a much better than fifty to fifty chance.

465
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 5: Does that the World Series representative from the National League

466
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 5: is not going to be the Dodgers. I think they're

467
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 5: maybe they have a twenty percent chance of making it

468
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 5: to the World Series something like that, but it is

469
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 5: not much more than that. Wow wow, Because I'm like

470
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 5: I see them right now, Doug, They're a really good team.

471
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 5: They're a really good team, but they are one of

472
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 5: many good teams in the National League. Last year they

473
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 5: were at times a dominant team. They are not a

474
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 5: dominant team. They're a good team, they're a really good team,

475
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 5: but they are not a dominant team. And to be

476
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 5: honest with you, it's the same story in the American League.

477
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 5: This is a wide open sport right now. And that's

478
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 5: why we have had many conversations, Doug over the years

479
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 5: about baseball where we're at as a state of the game.

480
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 5: I seem to recall that multiple times in the last year. Yes,

481
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 5: you and I talked to during the Dodgers Yankees World

482
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 5: Series and that was great and it was a Dodgers

483
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 5: Yankees la New York. How cool is this? There's not

484
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 5: been a repeat champion in this sport in a quarter century.

485
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 5: There was much more competitive balance in this sport right

486
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 5: now than then. A lot of the detractors who say, oh,

487
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 5: it's a big market sport, you sure about that, Look

488
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 5: a look at the Brewers, the Tigers, the Reds are

489
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 5: are trying to build up. There's just a lot of

490
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 5: teams that are not major market teams that could be

491
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 5: playing in the World Series. This season.

492
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, listen, I generally agree with you, but

493
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: I do think you guys are just hopping off the

494
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: Dodger bandwagon really quickly, and they were rolling. Now they've

495
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: suffered some injuries since they're rolling, but it's it's it

496
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: can be fascinating to see what happens.

497
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 5: They're good, but they're but they're not a juggernaut. That's

498
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 5: that's the the delineation I have. I actually don't see

499
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 5: a single dominant team. If you were looking at this

500
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 5: and you wanted to have fun ticking a team that's

501
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 5: got the fifteenth best record in baseball right now or

502
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 5: fourteenth best record, to have that team win the World Series.

503
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 5: It's a good year to make that pick because this,

504
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 5: this whole sport right now is wide open.

505
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: Stug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. That's John

506
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: paulm Rossi is our guest. Okay, what about the Yankees.

507
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: How do you how do you see them heading the

508
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 1: stretch run?

509
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 5: I like what they did. I thought they were one

510
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 5: of the other winners of the day yesterday and the

511
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 5: deadline in general. I would really like to see them

512
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 5: get one more starting pitcher. I was a little surprised

513
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 5: that they did not come away with a Zach Gallon

514
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,160
Speaker 5: or a Sandy al Contra from the Marlins or Daniel

515
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 5: Cabrera from the marl r ed Workerberra I should say so.

516
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,399
Speaker 5: I thought one of those options would have been in

517
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 5: ten stripes is based on the way that that day

518
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 5: was unfolding. But they've added multiple closers Doug, they added

519
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 5: David Bednar from the Pirates, they added Camilo Dovall from

520
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 5: the Giants. They've made some offensive upgrades. They added Hoste

521
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 5: Cava Gedo, who was a really good defender, and when

522
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 5: you think about the defensive struggles right now of Anthony Vulpi,

523
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,679
Speaker 5: getting a shortstop like Caveyto I think is a very

524
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 5: very good option for them. That they added some righty

525
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 5: bats in both Rosario and Slater earlier on. I just

526
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 5: I think the Yankees have done a really good job

527
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 5: of incrementally upgrading their team. And again I've got some

528
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 5: concerns about their rotation, but they are right now the

529
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 5: best challenger to the Toronto Blue Jays in the American

530
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 5: League East. I think that the Red Sox good, but

531
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 5: they really missed out on not doing enough of the

532
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 5: deadlines where I right now. I put the Yankees ahead

533
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 5: of the Red Sox and the Jays narrowly. Still the

534
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 5: best team in the American League East, but again, it

535
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 5: is a wide open Al East within a wide open

536
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 5: American League.

537
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: Should be really exciting. Come down the stretch front. Hey, JP,

538
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: you're the best. You have such great energy and knowledge.

539
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining us. We appreciate you

540
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: being our guest on Fox Sports Radio.

541
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 5: Thank you, Doug. I always enjoyed this time of year,

542
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 5: Mr Fair. We even had the Lions play last night.

543
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 5: I didn't really love the way they played. I was

544
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 5: kind of keeping an eye on that after the trade

545
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 5: headline was over. But it's early. I trust in Dan Campbell.

546
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 5: They're going to be in the super Bowl this year.

547
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't know about the super Bowl, but I

548
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:40,239
Speaker 1: know you do trust them, and they they've been. They've been,

549
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: They've been great. Hey, thanks for joining us.

550
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 5: I'm an optimist. Thanks so much. I appreciate it. Thank you.

551
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: How are you doing there? Jay Stu? You okay? Like

552
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,959
Speaker 1: he actually feels like it feels like you guys are

553
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: lockstep in your feelings about the Dodgers.

554
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 6: I could not agree with him more his assessment was perfect.

555
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 6: There's something wrong with this current group. I don't care

556
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 6: how much it costs. I don't care how much talent

557
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 6: is there. I don't care how many injuries we've had.

558
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 6: There's something wrong with the current group. So do make

559
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 6: no moves of the deadline. Is telling your fan base

560
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 6: that you have faith in the current guys, But what

561
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 6: have they done to prove that correct? So yeah, they're

562
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 6: they're inactivity at the trade deadline is made even worse

563
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 6: by how the how much better the Podreys got. I mean,

564
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 6: it's incredible what they were able to do. They added

565
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 6: the best closer in baseball to a bullpen that's already

566
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 6: lights out. So yeah, if I'm a Dodger fan, and

567
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 6: I am, I am worried that we didn't do anything

568
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 6: at the trade deadline.

569
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: Hmm. You know, it's really interesting. It's just gonna be interesting,

570
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: you know, how teams deal, how teams players, everything deals

571
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: with success. Because I think you and I talked about

572
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: this last year where it felt like last year was

573
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: not the year that you thought the Rodgers would definitely win,

574
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: like they were the plan was, you know, like like

575
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: you and I point out two years ago, I remember

576
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: we're doing shows. I'm like, yeah, it feels like they're

577
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 1: saving up for Otani. Then you get Otani, You're like, yeah,

578
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: well you're saving up for when Otani's back pitching, and

579
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: next year is really the year. But they win it

580
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,479
Speaker 1: last year and you're like, okay, well, and they were

581
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: playing great for a good portion of time without being

582
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: crazy healthy, and then the bottom sort of falls out.

583
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: I was doing I did little Oklahoma City Radio last

584
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: week or whenever when I was back there, and I

585
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: and I was on my friend Mark Rodgers, and I

586
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 1: was like, you know, and I didn't use the Dodgers

587
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: an example, but they could be easy the example with

588
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: the Thunder. The Thunder won it this year, it's probably

589
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: a year early. Everything tells you they should be better

590
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: and they should have a great chance to win it again.

591
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: But that's not how sports work, because sports are played

592
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: by human beings, and sometimes human beings win a championship

593
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: before they're emotionally ready to do so, and it hurts

594
00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: your cohesion. Part two, It is we we we absolutely

595
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: positively have to have to have to have to stop saying,

596
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: let's come be being in a dynasty. Just wait till

597
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: there's a dynasty it organically happens, and then comment on

598
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: the dynasty. That should be a rule.

599
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 6: And then while you're at it, don't devote lazy segments

600
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 6: to are the Dodgers ruining baseball? This is a perfect

601
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 6: example of how they're not ruining baseball.

602
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: We didn't right, Like I know, you're not being critical

603
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 1: of us.

604
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 6: We made fun of people that did right in December.

605
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: Eh wow. For forty years, Tyrek's been helping customers find

606
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,240

659
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 3: noticed the name de Maarvion Overshown. That might be the

660
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 3: best name in sports. That that's that is a great,

661
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:08,080

00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: That's an unbelievable name.

663
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I've never found the last name Overshown. And

664
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 3: then it's not like they named him Steve or Dwight

665
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 3: or Buddy. They named him Demarvion. So you have a

666
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 3: great first name and a great last name as well.

676

00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 3: Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

686
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,520

687
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:31,040

00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 3: four h five at three o'clock in the morning.

690
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 4: You might end up spending four hundred and.

691
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 1: Was there was there a road closure at the time

692
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,479
Speaker 1: without fixing something.

693
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 3: That's just how it is. I have issues with the

694
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 3: four or five and the five.

695
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: I have issues with the four or five. I drove

696
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 1: it every day for seven years and it was the

697
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: best part about coming nobody.

698
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 3: And it drove you to Wisconsin. It did you get

699
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 3: on it?

700
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna say I like it, but I'm

701
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 1: saying like, let's not overdo it. Well speaking, I actually

702
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:07,760
Speaker 1: think LA freeways are way better than Chicago and DC

703
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: because those are all older roads, so they don't have

704
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: as many options. You know, they also don't have the

705
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: carpool ainge that you can use.

706
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 4: Well, turning into a sketch of the Californians right now.

707
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 3: Take the l back in Chicago. By the way. Finally,

708
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 3: speaking of terrorifying things, remember Danilo Gallinari. His wife is

709
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 3: thankfully okay after being attacked by a shark in Puerto

710
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 3: Rico while pregnant. The shark bit her on her thigh.

711
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 3: She had a surgery on the leg, but she is fine.

712
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 3: Can you imagine that you're pregnant and you get bitten

713
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 3: by a shark? But again, thankfully she's okay.

714
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: Any shark bites like easily. Anyone's like top two or

715
00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 1: three biggest fears.

716
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,280
Speaker 4: Yep, yeah, it's murky down there. I can't see what's.

717
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: Well that one. Spiders are also right there. I have

Speaker 1: twin daughters. One is definitely afraid of spider's Otherend's like,

719
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: I don't care, but I'd say most.

720
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 4: People, yeah, compared like maybe you're racnophobia, but like spiders

721
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 4: compared to a shark attack is like.

722
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: Yes, people fear like spider's laying eggs in their ears

723
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 1: or a spider bite.

724
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:23,560
