This first time I think we've 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.840 had Chris in person on the show. Make way for 0:02:56.000 --> 0:03:07.120 mad Dog Russo. Yeah, yeah, look at that. 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:08.679 How are we doing? 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:09.720 Everything's good? 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:13.200 You Marvin God flits back there in the corner. 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:16.600 How much coffee have you had some of your Thanks 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:16.919 to you. 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.200 My first one, Thanks to you, Thanks to you. 0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:23.720 Can you give us a all right. 0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:32.200 Good morning everybody? That is a good one. 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:33.880 That's so. 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:37.680 Chris worked with Mike Francesa. They pretty much created sports 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.560 talk radio and this in New York at w f 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.440 A N. But when you first started doing that, I'm 0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.680 curious what Mike Francessa thought when you start the radio. 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:48.040 With the end. 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:50.240 Yeah, you know, I I'd have to go back to 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:52.520 see if I did it on the first show. 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:53.480 I doubt I did. 0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:59.440 Probably evolved and it became a staple, so I I 0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:01.320 I probably we did it within the first three or 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.800 four months of eighty nine, So I'm not exactly. I'm 0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:06.560 sure I didn't do it the first day. I just 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:10.120 I did hand. But I'm sure somehow, some way I 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:12.400 just evolved. You know how radio is it? You know, 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:13.960 you try something, it seems like. 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:16.480 People like it, You stick with it, You stick with it. 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:18.400 And I can't get rid of that hand right now 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:21.480 if it was the last thing on earth. But yeah, 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:24.400 so but and remember one day about Mike. Remember I 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:26.560 did that famous thing when I killed the Giants, when 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:29.480 I lost the Marlins in ninety three, Remember that famous 0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:31.560 I was so upset when I got beat by the 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.480 Marlins when they won a championship in oh three, not 0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:34.080 ninety three. 0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:36.640 So I mean and I went rant did that? 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:40.520 Mike would always he understood where you know what this 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:43.680 this is good. Let's let this roll. And you know 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.440 a lot of it was me screaming and yelling about something. Yeah, 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:48.680 and Mike understood that. You know that you were with us, 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.440 you were part of it forever. Yeah, and Mike realized that. 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:53.880 So the end is one of those one of those categories. 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:55.960 I don't know if you know this, but Fritzy does 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.840 not like Bruce Springsteen. You, of course your theme music 0:04:58.920 --> 0:04:59.600 to open the. 0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:00.719 Show Radio Nowhere. 0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:05.000 Yes, yeah, I called the music company to make sure 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.240 I can do that, because you know that they own 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:09.200 the rights. Say, Chris played as much as you want. 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:11.719 So that's why I did the Radio Nowhere. And I 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:15.839 that I did start very early at serious And oh wait, 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:18.800 I was at the first show. Maybe not but the 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:21.240 first the first month or so I started that, and. 0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:21.960 I was thinking about this. 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:23.880 You know, I was at the first ball game, first 0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:27.479 game in this park in two thousand when it opened, 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:31.599 and Kevin Elster hit three homers and the Giants lost 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:33.840 to La. Do you remember that he hit three homers. 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.360 I came all this way. I sat with my lovely 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:39.160 wife behind the first base, dugout, Mike got me the 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:40.760 tickets and also hit three bombs. 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:41.720 We lose the game for. 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:42.280 Kind of luck. 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.200 I told you want to give a mad dog a 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:46.000 little Springsteen? 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.920 Here, go ahead, Todd. 0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:51.640 Come on, now, does you Putter cares them? 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:53.960 That's pretty good. 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:55.359 But he doesn't like Springsteen. 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:56.760 He's got it figured out. 0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:59.000 I respect it, but I just I don't know. I say, people, 0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:02.360 I've gone fifty times in wisconcerts. We had Larry Bearer, Yes, 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:07.039 they were telling me, CEO. And you know, these stadiums 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:10.240 have a shelf life. I can't imagine what they would 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:12.919 do differently here. And it's I think thirty years old, 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:16.919 and you start to see that's around the end of 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.080 a shelf life for a stadium, and then we have 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:23.560 to have a new one here. Can Oracle Park survive? 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.799 And yes it can be, Like can can it grow 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:27.320 into a Wrigley Fenway? 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.200 Why not? And I think a lot of. 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.160 Those stadiums out there that in baseball are new. Peco 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:34.360 is a great park. You know, I think you'd agree. 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:35.760 I love peck Go. I don't know if you've been there. 0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:36.360 It's a great park. 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:36.599 I have. 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:38.800 They didn't take advantage of the visitors. 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:42.279 Though, yeah, probably not, but like this this is they 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:44.360 did a great You know, I'll take another great park 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:46.320 that I like. Oh, Camden is obviously going to be 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.200 around forever too. They did a great job. I remember 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:52.480 they were gonna build the park in eighty nine because 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.159 the Giants got the World Series, but they had the earthquake, 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:57.800 so as a result that got put aside. 0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:00.840 They were gonna build Luria Park. They didn't build it. 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:04.640 He sells it, McGowan buys it, and they played in 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:07.000 Candlestick in that ninety three, in that whole period. 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:08.200 And then McGowan, the late. 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.200 Pete McGowan is the guy grew up in the Upper 0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:13.320 East Side, was a big Bobby Thompson fan, and he's 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:15.640 the guy that really did all the work, as you know, 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:18.440 Danny to build this park because it's all private money 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:21.400 and it is a great park. I mean, you know, 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.160 I came with the World Series show in O two. 0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:25.840 I was here at the World Series when they beat Texas, 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:28.040 when they beat Detroit. I mean I was here a 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:29.360 lot in the early days. And he used to go 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:31.640 to Candlestick a lot too. You go to Candlestick for 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:32.160 a ball game. 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.800 One time, Oh I was there, cold, Oh jeseuz. One 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:35.920 time he went, let's. 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:39.720 Just see I think it was the Giants Dodgers. Well, 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:41.520 that's a good one. I remember seeing Marshall. 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:43.120 Well that's way back. 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:47.640 Yeah, okay, yeah, and I it was so cold, and 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:50.800 I just said, I don't need to go back to 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:53.640 that stadium again. And I grew up a John Brody. 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:55.200 Fan like I like us passed away. 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:59.360 Yeah, I grew up. I loved the Niners' uniforms and 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.480 they weren't that's successful back then. But I love the 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:04.680 way they look, you know, just like the Chargers. I 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:07.840 went to Bengals games and the Chargers came out in 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:08.520 those uniforms. 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:08.800 All. 0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:11.880 I love it. I agree with you. Those George uniforms 0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:12.240 are great. 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:15.560 Old Keyzar Stadium where the Niners played, which is still 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.520 up by the way because they play a lot of 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.240 high school games in there. They have the birds flying old. 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.600 That was a great stadium, and I think the I 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.240 think the forty nine ers have lost something when their 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:28.320 stadium is forty. 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:28.920 Four miles away. 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:30.000 Yeah, I mean. 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:32.520 A stadiums it's nowhere near here. I mean it's in 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:34.160 another city. I mean it really is. 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:36.760 And they should be called the San jos A Niners 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.400 instead of the San Francisco nine. So I think that 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:41.640 they've lost a little something in a giant state in 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.040 the city, so which is good. And I know now 0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:46.880 the Warriors and the Oakland Coliseum was a great arena, 0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:49.880 and I used to love the Cow Palace, which is 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:53.000 across the street near the airport. And when the Warriors 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:57.400 beat the Bullets, you remember this andander, but they played 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.800 the games at the Cow Palace because the Oakland Coliseum 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:05.120 was not available. And that was a weird final because 0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:08.360 the first game is in Washington and games two and 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.520 three were in the Calu Potas and the Bullets had. 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:14.240 The home court. So the Warriors won the first game, 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:15.760 and they came out here up one. 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:15.959 Oh. 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:17.880 They won the two games and they swept them near 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:20.400 number that with Rick Barrier, Rick Barry, No. 0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:24.040 I loved it in the old Calupantis, the old fairgrounds building. 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.320 But this one, you're right, you're one hundred percent right 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:27.160 there in this park. 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:28.959 Will be here a long long time ago. 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:31.520 The Giants got some issues because you know, the Dodgers 0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:32.880 are blown them away in this division. 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:34.320 They can't gave way to take their money. 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:39.160 Whether it's Otani Correa, you know, the Jobmoto. 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:40.120 Who's a judged. 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:41.720 They can't get a way to take all their money, 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:44.280 which is you know, makes a tricky for him. And 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.760 in the other period there, you know, fifteen years ago 0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:49.080 Bonds took the money and everything else. That was a 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:53.360 huge signing. And give McGowan credit when he got Bonds 0:09:53.360 --> 0:09:55.560 to come here in ninety three, he gave. 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:58.040 Him forty six and a half million. I don't know 0:09:58.080 --> 0:09:58.960 how many years it was. 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.760 You know that that was huge because the Giants in 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:04.720 ninety three were a great team and they lost to Atlanta. 0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:06.800 By the last day of the season, they won one 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:08.480 hundred and three games. They didn't make the playoffs and 0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:09.559 a brads one hundred and four. 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:13.360 There. You you can't with your memory like you can't 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:15.800 miss like an anniversary or a birthday at home. 0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:18.080 Right And by the way, it's my lovely wife's birth 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:21.680 day today. Jean Russa, all right about that, So we 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:23.680 have to make sure I would have forgotten. 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.880 So we talked yesterday to the CEO, and we talked 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.800 about Bonds's statue. So you make the Hall of Fame, 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.079 you get a statue. Jeff Kent will get one, Buster 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:38.000 Posey will get one. And then we talked about I 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:41.200 said to Larry Bear, all right, give me your like 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.400 you're going to stand behind Bonds for the Hall of Fame. 0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:46.960 Let me hear it. And we keep hearing this sometimes, 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.440 and that is why he was the Hall of Famer before. 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:55.000 I think it's the totality of your career. Absolutely, I'm sorry. 0:10:55.320 --> 0:11:00.960 Bonds did incredible things, but some of it was it real. 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:05.240 His best work was enhanced. That's a problem. But I 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:08.400 do think the younger voters that were taking over baseball, 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.160 I agree with that. I don't think they're caught up 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:11.200 in steroids. Chris. 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:14.040 Yeah, but remember Bond's now camping in because he's passed 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:16.040 the valid things, so he has to get through the 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:18.560 executive committee and he's not going to get in. They 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:21.840 just voted no with him and Clemens. Bonds became an 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:27.560 immortal because of steroids. He was not an immortal before steroids. 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:30.280 He was great, and he was a great player, him 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:31.640 and Griffy with the two best players. 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:35.520 But he was an immortal. He became Ruthian after he 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:35.800 did it. 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:37.600 And it was all because of that home run Derby 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:40.120 when McGuire and Soto. 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:42.280 Sosa. 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.320 You saw it in ninety six at the Veteran Stadium, 0:11:45.400 --> 0:11:47.680 I was out that and those guys hit home runs 0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:50.360 all over the place. They got loved by all the fans, 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:51.920 and Bonds got jealous. 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:54.240 And then he said he if they get all this swam, 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.120 I'm better than them. Not do the steroids too. 0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:02.199 And obviously he becomes but he was not an immortal 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:02.960 to me. 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:05.719 And but is this like And. 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:07.679 I understand the Giants in a tricky spot because he 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:08.000 did that. 0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:09.079 What are they supposed to do it? 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:12.120 But I grew up in Cincinnati, so I would defend 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:15.520 Pete Rose the best I could, but I wouldn't have 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:19.000 put him in the Hall of Fame. But as a 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:22.000 player he could go in. He did the other stuff 0:12:22.040 --> 0:12:24.800 as a manager, and I thought, can you do It's 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:26.800 like what you did in grad school? If you cheat 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.920 in grad school, I don't take away what you did 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:32.559 in undergrad. And maybe you know, I'm trying to, you know, 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:37.520 massage this a little bit, but it feels like the Bonds. Hey, yeah, 0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:40.320 but he's ours, like the local you know, in the 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:43.240 base and this is a great baseball town. But they 0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:44.200 have to kind of go. 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:47.240 Yeah, they have no choice, but they gotta hold their nose. Yes, 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:49.640 that's what they gotta do. And and I understand that. 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:52.040 And he was great for the fret Ar. It's funny 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.120 with the franchising. They never won of them, which is 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.640 hard to believe. They should have won the O two 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.760 World Series. He was eight for seventeen or thirteen walks? 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:05.000 Did he hit that home run? Off Perceval went out 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.200 of it went all the way up and then out 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:10.680 to the concession at Anaheim? I mean in game two, 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:11.800 I was there for that. 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:13.319 Oh you were good for you dating. 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.760 I went to the first I went to games three, 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:19.400 four and five here and I did the show. I 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:23.120 Mike didn't come, but I did the three shows Games three, four, five, 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:25.320 and in game five the Giants won fourteen to five. 0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:28.440 And that was the famous game where j T Snow 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.960 picked up Dusty Baker's little kid, who was the bat boy. 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.280 When somebody scored, I've been j T scoring them that 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:35.520 I was gonna get run over. 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.640 And we left that ballpark that night. 0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:42.719 Everybody Giant fan, you know, like the Vancouver Canuck fan 0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:44.360 after they beat the Rangers in game. 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:45.720 They all thought the war twers was off. 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:48.080 I said, guys, you gotta win a game down in Anaheim. 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:48.880 That's not gonna be that. 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.680 Easy, and they didn't and they blew the five nothing lead. 0:13:51.840 --> 0:13:54.360 Dusty made the era with the taking or tease out, 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:56.880 which is you know that was a bad era first 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:58.800 and second bottom of a seven five. 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:01.000 Nothing Dusty leave him in the game plays. 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:04.440 And then Francisco Rodriguez gave up the three on over 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:06.400 to Earthstead and we ended up losing the World Series. 0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:08.760 But boy, you're creeping me out with this. 0:14:09.840 --> 0:14:12.200 Here you are, I'm sharp today. 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:15.800 I got up sharp and your hair is combed. My hair, Wow, 0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:17.120 I didn't even shave. 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:18.160 I was gonna shave. 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:21.400 I got a shave for Patrick. They signed I don't shave. 0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:23.760 Going there like a nutcase, I said, okay, I'll go in. 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:24.520 Town like a nutcase. 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:25.120 Uh. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:27.600 He is Christopher mad Dog Russo. He's got his own 0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:30.280 channel on Serious XM channel eighty two. You can see 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:33.840 him on First Take with Steven A. Smith. First super 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:34.520 Bowl you went to. 0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:39.040 Was nineteen ninety. That was the Denver San Francisco Super Bowl. 0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:41.400 And I told this story this morning. I'll tell you again. 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:42.160 It's a good one. 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:42.920 Nobody there. 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:45.720 It was just a couple of radio stations, Mike and me. 0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:48.600 The local station, I think probably Eddiy Andleman was there 0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:51.040 and maybe Eskin, so it wasn't a radio road thing. 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:52.600 So we're there the whole. 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:56.200 Week in in New Orleans, and we had Madden and 0:14:56.240 --> 0:14:58.680 some roll up and so Madden and some Row did 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:00.480 that game and some roll Privately, he comes up to me, 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:02.400 he says, keep on doing what you're doing, which I 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:04.760 thought I took that some meaning, you know, the goofiness 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:07.360 and all that, so I took that to heart. But 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.400 Madden comes on with some Row and he says, mist 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:13.200 you guys come to here's my address. Call me when 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:15.560 you come. Come to my hotel this week. I got 0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.040 to show you some stuff. So that week, whatever day 0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:19.600 it may have been, we went to his hotel, little 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:22.480 boutique hotel on Bourbon Street. We go into his up 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:25.280 in his suite, he sits a stam and he says, 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:27.760 watch this. He takes a projector out and he says, 0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:28.680 Rights does this. 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:33.080 Taylor does that? The tight end. Here's the Bronco's. 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:33.560 Louis right. 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:36.560 They don't have a chance in this game, a chance 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:41.440 fifty five ten. That's when I knew I was with 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:44.000 immortals with that prediction, and that was the first one 0:15:44.000 --> 0:15:46.760 that I went to in that And then the first 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:48.960 one I really realized whether there was a radio row 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:51.520 and this is becoming a big deal was the one 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:56.160 in LA when Buffalo played the Cowboys. That's the first one, Dan, 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:58.320 I know what you were doing Sports Center time probably 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:00.440 that was the first one that I read, and I was, wow, 0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:03.240 look at this little these radio stations, because up until 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:07.120 then I was in a lobby, hotel lobby. Then was 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:09.320 the first one they put us in a little like 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:11.760 a little convention room at a hotel. 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:14.160 Was that the one? And that's the you know, that 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:15.760 was the BB one at. 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:17.840 Fifty three seventeen, you know, and BB made the great 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:20.480 play on Leon Lett on the fumble, and you know, 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.320 and obviously Dallas killed them. But all those Super Bowls 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:24.960 so I've been I didn't go to the one with 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:28.160 Tampa and the Chiefs in the pandemic. 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:29.400 I didn't go to that one. 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:31.360 But you know, I've been here all these Super Bowls 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:33.800 for this time, even in Minnesota with the cold weather 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:34.240 and all. 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:34.720 That kind of stuff. 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:39.360 How do you walk the line of being entertaining but 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:45.040 also being a diehard sports fan, like being taken seriously 0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.000 but then being goofy as well? 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:51.320 I think I had trouble with that with the Mike 0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:51.560 and the. 0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:52.400 Mayor dog days. 0:16:52.800 --> 0:16:55.360 And I always said this, I knew a lot more 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:57.479 about sports than people realized. 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.200 And Mike was a lot funnier than people realiz He's 0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:00.680 great wit. 0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.720 You know, people thought Mike was an encyclopedia little dry 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:06.040 he had a great wit, and people thought I was 0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:08.800 just a nutcase, you know, anthing about sports, and so 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:10.439 you put those two things together. 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:11.280 That's why it worked. 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:14.680 I used to worry about that a lot, the credibility. 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:16.359 You know, here's the guy skimming in yelling. What does 0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:19.399 he know about sports? You know, you do five hours 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:23.920 a day on serious XM without with with eight minutes 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:28.159 or commercials from for five years, from two to seven. 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:30.840 You can do that. You must be doing you must 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.600
