Once you got off 67 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 6: the freeway and you started going up the hill where 68 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 6: you pay for the parking. 69 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 5: I don't know if it's still like that anymore. 70 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 6: You were good to go.

They got you in, they 72 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 6: got you going, and it was like that. Now it 73 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 6: sounds like you just got horror stories getting in and 74 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 6: out of Dodger's Day. 75 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say this going all the way back 76 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 4: to let's see, it was two thousand and eight, if 77 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 4: I'm remembering correctly, when the police were doing their reunion 78 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 4: tour at Dodger Stadium fo Fighters where the opener we 79 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 4: literally circled, and they had us going for a good 80 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 4: hour in the rings of hell trying to find a 81 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 4: parking spot to hing. My then wife just kind of 82 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 4: threw me off. She didn't really care about seeing the 83 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: food fighters, so I'll fit figure it out, and ended 84 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 4: up parking I guess, like five feet from where she 85 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 4: dropped me off, about an hour and a half before 86 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 4: I saw her inside the stadium. And then it took 87 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 4: us two hours after said contest to get out of 88 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 4: the parking lot and get on our merry way. 89 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 5: I've even talking before that. 90 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,239 Speaker 6: I'm talking about like with Garvey and lopes and saying 91 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 6: Russell played for the team. 92 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,679 Speaker 5: That's what I'm talking about. 93 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 4: You know, you want me to get a little jug 94 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 4: band playing in the background so we can make you 95 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 4: feel like you're in the. 96 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 5: Property exactly exactly, And. 97 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 4: There's already doing his little two steps as we go through. 98 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 4: But we've got Otani on the mound, so that's a 99 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 4: huge little wind for us here. He got the childish 100 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 4: Gambino himself, doll a glover out there and with throwing 101 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 4: out some first pitches and and all of that stuff. 102 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 4: Yamamoto bobblehead day, so it's big. The Dodgers offense to 103 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 4: this point still trying to wake up. We haven't seen 104 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,559 Speaker 4: any of that yet, but it is. It's a curious place, 105 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: like a lot of these here in Los Angeles. As 106 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 4: much as you may want to go to an event, 107 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 4: you may want to go to a movie that's only 108 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 4: showing in a couple of theaters. You may want to 109 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 4: go to television taping. You may want to go to 110 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 4: any of the sporting venues outside of Angels Stadium. If 111 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 4: you want to go, you go see your Los Angeles 112 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 4: Angels of Anaheim, or go see the Ducks. You can 113 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 4: get in and out of there fairly easily. Otherwise forget 114 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 4: about it. You got whatever your time is for your event, 115 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 4: and then add probably about two and a half to 116 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 4: three and a half hours getting in and or out 117 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 4: of a parking lot. Meanwhile, also handing over a day's pay. 118 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 6: You know, and you don't understand this because you're in 119 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 6: Los Angeles and everything's fighting. 120 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 5: Dad, you know where you can get in. 121 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 6: Well, you know where you can get in out of 122 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 6: stadium is in Florida, Baltimore and Cincinnati.

If Paul Skiings is pitching. 178 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 5: Right, I understand that it's going out in. 179 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 3: Five days day is he gonna be on the hill. 180 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 5: So they're not Pirate fans are just Paul Skiing fans. 181 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 4: Wow. But if it's the Pirates at home, you're gonna 182 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 4: get whatever you do. 183 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 7: Well. 184 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 5: The Reds are at home where the red fans. How 185 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 5: about that? 186 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 3: Well, the Reds last year they drew over two million fans. 187 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 5: That part of this game. 188 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 3: This was all but I mean it's a long road. 189 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 4: I mean we're talking spring break, We're talking you may 190 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 4: still be in school. 191 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 3: Whether is a concern. 192 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 4: The cost This is where we always get into a 193 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 4: little bit of a semantics, right, the average cost for 194 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 4: a family of fors, Like, all right, you go to 195 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 4: the average seating. It's bad data, right, because if you 196 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 4: just want to get into the ballpark and go sit 197 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 4: in the three hundred levels in virtually every state, even 198 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: at Dodger Stadium for a lot of the games, you 199 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 4: can get in for twenty bucks. 200 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 5: Ahead. Oh I think those days are over, Mike, I 201 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 5: don't believe. 202 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 3: So. 203 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, spend a little time on StubHub. I'll teach you 204 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: how to use it. Because last time you were telling 205 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 4: me your kid needed twenty grand to go see a 206 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: Buffalo Savers playoff game. 207 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 5: He still says he needs that money. I'm like, well, 208 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 5: you better. 209 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 4: Get your kids in trouble and make sure you put 210 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 4: an air tag and everything he owns and his car 211 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 4: and his wallets because his hair, I mean, he's got 212 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 4: some other stuff going on there. 213 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: If he's trying to shake you down for twenty. 214 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 6: K, you know, not to jump around, Mike, but not 215 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 6: what can we do when you Probably I'm around. 216 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, when I'm round. 217 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 6: But not only do people not go to games anymore 218 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 6: because they're too expensive? I sent an article about where 219 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 6: it said and Plank and I brought this up six 220 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 6: and ten sports fans actually skip games on TV because 221 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 6: it's too expensive to watch. 222 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 4: Well, we'll do that, yeah, because this comes down to 223 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 4: consumer choice. And remember not really that I've mentioned on 224 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 4: this show many a time. The last DJ album from 225 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 4: Tom Petty was a great one, but the music Into 226 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 4: Your Story hated him because he was calling out all 227 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 4: the changes and it became the. 228 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 3: How much you'll pay for what you used to get 229 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 3: for free? 230 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: And that's where we're at now and trying to parse 231 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 4: it out and remembering once upon a time we. 232 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: Didn't get a lot for free. Yes, you were still 233 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 3: paying for cable. 234 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: So whenever anybody goes well it was on air, it's like, well, 235 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 4: and I know there are hacks. There are antenna you 236 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 4: can buy to get your local chances that's. 237 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 3: Not always going to give you. 238 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 4: And there's plenty of other devices and websites if you're 239 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 4: willing to take some gambles with whether your security but 240 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 4: that's online. 241 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 5: Is there slim? You know that's few and far between 242 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 5: that do that well. 243 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 4: But but I'm saying right, it's just it's a lot 244 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 4: about optionality and how much you're really invested. If this 245 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 4: is if the Dodgers are your team and that's what 246 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 4: you are locked into, guess what, You're gonna figure out 247 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 4: a way to go watch it as often as you can. 248 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 4: Does it mean you're getting to one hundred and sixty two? No, 249 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 4: because most people aren't anyway, In terms of going to games. 250 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 4: We think nothing of going out to eat three or 251 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 4: four times a week. In most households, we think nothing of, ah, 252 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 4: you know what, I'm gonna go take a break for lunch. 253 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 3: What'd you get? Nine dollars Starbucks? 254 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 5: Like all Thoseald's you know, but all the. 255 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 3: Way up and down the line. 256 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 4: And I'm not trying to walllet chase or certainly looking 257 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 4: at mine, I've had plenty of ancillary costs that suddenly 258 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 4: a lot of things that we were deciding on whether 259 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 4: we're gonna go guess what, we're not doing them because 260 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 4: because the money got sucked away to other things. But 261 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 4: it's just that idea of sports was always you know, 262 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 4: we'll always be able to go, and then it got 263 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 4: pricey or pricey er like everything else. Even suddenly they're 264 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 4: in the villains. 265 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, even spring trading in baseball, when you go out 266 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 6: to Arizona. 267 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 5: You know it's expensive. 268 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 6: There's a the cub games or the Dodger games were 269 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 6: eighty five dollars for the cheapest ticket. 270 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 3: But again those those are the outlier teams, right. 271 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 4: It's it's one of the things that's always gotten me 272 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 4: is the I remember when we started interleague play and 273 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 4: people would complay, oh, look out how expensive it is 274 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 4: for when the Yankees come in. It's like, no kidding, yes, 275 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 4: the Yankees versus I don't know, the Tampa Bay Rays. 276 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 4: Which one's gonna draw more demand in any city, not 277 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 4: only in the United States, on the planet, right right, 278 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 4: The Yankees hands down, And no matter how you play them, 279 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 4: they are a draw and it comes to cost. 280 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's why you got to you gotta move the Marlins. 281 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 6: You can't have them there where you're having constantly under 282 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 6: ten thousand fans. It's it's an embarrassment, to be honest 283 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 6: with you, nobody cares about that. 284 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 4: Well, but in the end, it's a TV program and 285 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 4: if if the economics of baseball allow them to survive, 286 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 4: because remember when you get the revenue revenue sharing and 287 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 4: you're you're not forced to actually put it back on 288 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 4: the field. As an owner, what you're running a business. Well, 289 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 4: we can get into it, the ted lasso and soccer 290 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 4: and we are stewards of this, right. We don't own it. 291 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 4: We're just here for a short time versus oh damn it. 292 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 4: It's an asset that I own and all I'm doing 293 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 4: is trying to make it another piggy bank, right, And 294 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 4: for a lot of owners, that's the case. For the Dodgers, 295 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 4: they get their cake and eat it too. Wait, we 296 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 4: can make a lot of money and we can win great. 297 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 4: But how many organizations are willing to do what it's 298 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 4: going to cost, willing to put in the infrastructure going 299 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 4: to the minor leagues and all the way through their training, 300 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 4: through their facilities and everything else to make that worthwhile, 301 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 4: to create the creative contract structures and to get the 302 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 4: buy in from players and agents to do so. There's 303 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: very few, And we talk about this, Arnie. You and 304 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 4: I've been doing this together for many a year, and 305 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,599 Speaker 4: I'm blessed every time we get to do it. I 306 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 4: love nothing more than when the red light comes on 307 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 4: and you talk about wanting to drive. 308 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,359 Speaker 3: But all of that, I'm old. 309 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 4: Now, so I figured out how to how to work 310 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 4: the car, but and stop jerking the wheel. 311 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 3: But it's the idea. 312 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 4: That when when you get down to it, there's there's 313 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 4: just the different different leads. You have a handful of 314 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 4: quote unquote serious organizations and everybody else. 315 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 5: Right, and they and they don't bring in the money. 316 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 6: I will bet you though out of our listeners right there, 317 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 6: nine out of ten of our listeners right have not 318 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 6: watched an NFL game because they couldn't get it because 319 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 6: they didn't have this or that, or they didn't want 320 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 6: to pay for an extra channel, or they didn't have 321 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 6: the NFL network or any of the abide. 322 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 3: But that's a choice you're making with your entertainment people. 323 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 6: Well, that's because the entertainment dollar. As you know, you 324 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 6: have a lot of things to do out there, Mike. 325 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 3: Right, But that's just it. If you decide our. 326 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 5: Income is not big for a lot of people. 327 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: Right, no. 328 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 4: But but that's the point though, Like you decide where 329 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 4: you're gonna go. If it's a Disney Plus and everything 330 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 4: that goes through, right the. 331 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: Package with Hulo and or whatever else. 332 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 4: Right, if you're an HBO Max because you need the Rooster, 333 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 4: or you need the Saint Louis Show with Cardolini and 334 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 4: Bateman and Harbor and everything, you got that you want 335 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 4: to watch the pit go nuts, you want to watch Batman. 336 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 4: It was Batman's birthday, by the way, Yes, I know 337 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 4: you should have celebrated it nineteen thirty nine. But all 338 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 4: of those things, you know, you just start adding them up, right, 339 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 4: But but you pick and choose, like everything else you 340 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 4: do in your life.

Okay, that's fun. And then 514 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 4: he played in his golf simulator league, and so it's like, 515 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 4: all right, cool. Golf is always It's like a lot 516 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 4: of sports, right. We look for the name brands, the 517 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 4: marquee names, and everything we can do to try to 518 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 4: promote and get in there and sell, sell, sell in 519 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 4: the name Tiger Woods, even if he's only gonna participate 520 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 4: for a couple of holes before walking to his car, 521 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 4: still moves the needle. He put out this statement a 522 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 4: little bit earlier today, quote, I know and understand the 523 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 4: seriousness of the situation I find myself in today. I'm 524 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 4: stepping away for a period of time to see treatment 525 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 4: and focus on my health. This is necessary in order 526 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 4: for me to prioritize my well being and work towards 527 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 4: lasting recovery. I've committed to taking the time needed to 528 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 4: return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both 529 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 4: personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support and 530 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 4: ask for privacy for my family, loved one, and myself 531 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 4: at this time. 532 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 3: Sign Tiger. 533 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 4: So the statement right, until you want to go get help, 534 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 4: until you can look in that mirror. And this goes 535 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 4: for everybody across the globe and certainly athletes, celebrities. You know, 536 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 4: the microscope is there on the actions. And in this case, 537 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 4: but for the grace of God, you know, he clips 538 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 4: a car, he doesn't get injured, the other driver of 539 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 4: the other car doesn't get injured, and now we just 540 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 4: get to the courts, et cetera. But for golf, huge loss. 541 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 6: Right. 542 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 4: Anytime he can be in the mix, it's there. But 543 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 4: from a personal level, I'm at the point of, go 544 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 4: get yourself help. We'll see it when we see you, 545 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 4: right If if you get back in the public eye, great, 546 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 4: If not, you had a hell of a run, we'll see. 547 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 5: Right right now. 548 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 6: Look, I'm a Tiger fan. I like Tiger, so hopefully 549 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 6: he gets his help. I do want to say this though, Mike, 550 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 6: this is gonna end one or two ways if this continues, 551 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 6: that he's going to kill somebody or he's going to 552 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 6: kill himself. Uh, he had a car, did you see 553 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 6: it on the side of it out inside like that? 554 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 6: How do you clip a car and put your car 555 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 6: like that on the side when you're just driving on 556 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 6: a normal road. You have to be going at an 557 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 6: extreme high rate of speed and that's just, you know, 558 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 6: that's just uncalled for, absolutely uncalled for. 559 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 5: I don't know what he was on. 560 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 6: We're going to find out the full taxology report maybe 561 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 6: if we ever do, but you know, it's it's not 562 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 6: going to be pretty. I gotta tell you, it's sickening 563 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 6: to see him unravel like this. I don't know if 564 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 6: he's in a lot of pain because of his other 565 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 6: injuries and that's why he's taking or allegedly taking meds 566 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 6: like this, or he's just taking it for enjoyment. 567 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 5: I don't know. 568 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 6: I think he's probably under a lot of pain, but 569 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 6: it's horrible to see him just unraveling in front of 570 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 6: our eyes like that. When he was so idolized and 571 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 6: loved by so many people out there in a sport 572 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 6: that really got no attention, Mike, and now look at 573 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 6: all he brought to the sport of golf, and now 574 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 6: people are just watching him unravel. 575 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 5: It's horrible to see. And I hope he does get. 576 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 6: The help that he needs, because it's, like I said, 577 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 6: it's getting up one or two ways, and neither one 578 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 6: of them is not pretty. 579 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 3: No, And that's the horrid part of it. 580 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 4: And it's it's gone on and relapses, and we don't 581 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 4: know the day to day. We only know when it 582 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 4: hits one of these pressure points in a very public way. 583 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 3: Right. I'd certainly know. 584 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 4: My father was a law enforcement officer in Chicago, and 585 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 4: there's a lot that once upon a time, when people 586 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 4: didn't all have cameras on their phones or think of 587 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 4: themselves as quote unquote journalists, which is a whole other 588 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 4: thing that guys women in the public eye. You could 589 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 4: go out, have your time and and if you've got 590 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 4: a bit of a scrape, you got in a little 591 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 4: bit of trouble was easy to keep it out of 592 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 4: the newspapers. 593 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 6: I'm sorry to rupt, but I do want to say 594 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 6: this where people were saying, well, why doesn't he get 595 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 6: somebody to drive him? And then the reports that he 596 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 6: wants to keep his privacy, well, why doesn't he buy 597 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 6: a Tesla, a self driving car. 598 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 4: Well that is one of the points we made as 599 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 4: this was going down, you know, and started on frouducy. Look, 600 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 4: you still everybody wants some level of control. Talk to 601 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 4: to anybody who's had to tell a parent or a 602 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 4: grandparent that you can't drive anymore, that it's not safe. 603 00:27:55,359 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 4: Whether it's a medical issue, whether mentally they can't focus 604 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 4: anymore their eyesight, whatever it is, have that talk and 605 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 4: then talk to me about any other circumstance. Right for 606 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,479 Speaker 4: Tiger Woods, he was the best in the game, and 607 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 4: what was it? He hit it a long ways. He 608 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 4: dominated from pillar to posts for that long period of time. 609 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 4: It became a global icon. So suddenly someone saying we're 610 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 4: gonna take this away from you know, and by the way, 611 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 4: knows where you're going, Arnie. 612 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 6: Yes, yes, but the one just when you're under the 613 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,719 Speaker 6: influence is when you do that too. Yes, the Tesla 614 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 6: those but you know what, so do a lot of 615 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 6: cars have GPS programs in them nowadays. 616 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 5: When you're using how to get around and maps and 617 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 5: all that stuff. 618 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 6: It's not like you're going to keep a secret where 619 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 6: you're going. Please, let's let's just be some realistic about things. 620 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 6: If people want to find out where Tiger Woods is going, 621 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 6: I'm sure they can. And who's really following Tiger Woods nowadays, 622 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 6: Let's be honest. 623 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 4: I'm still plenty plenty of folks there's still a market 624 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 4: for If Tiger decides that day he's going to grace 625 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 4: them with the stroke of a sharpie. It's not worth 626 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 4: several hundred dollars, aren't he that are gonna stalk him? 627 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 6: The only way somebody wants to know is maybe because 628 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 6: of who he was going out with, and that you 629 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 6: have to keep on the national security. But then again, 630 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 6: when when that's happening, you have somebody pick him up. 631 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 6: I look, like I said earlier, Mike, he had a 632 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 6: souped up car.

Are you how fast were you going to 636 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 6: put a car of that magnitude on its side like that? 637 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 6: I couldn't do that if I tried to do it 638 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 6: on purpose. 639 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 4: Well, you're a scientist. I'm sure you could do the 640 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 4: math as to what it would take and what rates 641 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 4: of speed and in past et cetera. I mean, certainly 642 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 4: when he had that accident here in Los Angeles, right 643 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 4: in an area that I used to traverse with my 644 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 4: daughter for soccer practices, very dangerous stretch around even on 645 00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 4: the best of circumstances, visibilities a little bit clipped.

Chris Plank in their usual spot 768 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 4: on Sunday nights. But you know what, it's time for 769 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 4: the tire rack play of the day and a what 770 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 4: was the worst play at first base we've seen since 771 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 4: nineteen eighty six? 772 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 5: Wow? 773 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 3: Since nineteen eighty six. 774 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 4: It's only appropriate that a guy named Buckner is the culprit. 775 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 6: Powers out Williamson cross the first it's wide, it's backed up. 776 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 3: By four tas. 777 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 2: That should be a basit for ballads. 778 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 6: I never did make a move towards second base, so 779 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 6: he's safe. 780 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 3: Heck of an effort by Williams should at second. Bunter 781 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 3: did not touch first base and that was put out. 782 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,720 Speaker 8: So the call from CEBE Buckner is that Jake Bauers 783 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 8: missed first base and then was tagged out, not that 784 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 8: he made a move to. 785 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 2: Second base right and was tagged out.

Where 788 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:35,720 Speaker 5: is CEB Butner looking? 789 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 3: He's not even looking at it. Why would he even 790 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 3: say that C B. 791 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 5: Buckner was not even looking at the play. 792 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 3: He stepped right on top of first ball. I'm not 793 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 3: sure what CB Buckner's looking at there. 794 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 5: That that's ridiculous. 795 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 3: Man there, it is right there. 796 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 4: Bowers stomped on the base louder than any drum from 797 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 4: the musical on Broadway.

The guy said he wasn't paying 835 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 6: attention and he wasn't looking at the base. 836 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 4: Well, no, it's clear when you when you watch the replay, 837 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 4: his eyes are down towards where the catcher is moving 838 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 4: into position to back up the throw, like he's not 839 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 4: looking at the play at first base at any moment. Also, 840 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 4: you know the presumption that he didn't hit the base. 841 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 4: It's it's just now in a terrible, terrible. 842 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 3: Spot for him. 843 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 4: And when we look at it, uh, here just time 844 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 4: and again. Uh, he's been awful at the plate. They 845 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 4: have the little graphic if you look on X you 846 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 4: have to keep scrolling to get to the bottom of 847 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 4: the list. He's so far ahead of everybody else in 848 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 4: terms of miss calls. 849 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 6: And we've talked to we don't have Angel Hernandez to 850 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 6: kick around anymore. 851 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 4: No, but I mean, look the abs. Look, eventually it's 852 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 4: just the robot o umpire. Those guys aren't gonna be 853 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 4: there at all. We've talked about that on the show. 854 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 4: Smith and I quite a bit, like it's just why bother, 855 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 4: why bother? Either that or you go to the jet 856 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 4: you have the voice in your head. No, no, no, 857 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 4: you still need him for plays at the plate whatever else. 858 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 4: But in terms of balls and strikes, just take it 859 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 4: out of like particularly as egregious as some of these 860 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 4: have been. And look, it's a game of inches and 861 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 4: narrow misses. I was seeing some of the highlights where 862 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 4: guys missing point three inches. No, but that's just it, right, 863 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 4: So it's the difficult thing. So if that's what we're 864 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 4: gonna be working to that, you know box for lack 865 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 4: of a better term, then you know we let let's 866 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 4: just skip the preliminaries and embarrassing these guys at the plate. 867 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 4: Now in this case, I can't protect him. I can't 868 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 4: protect him. This is just agreed, just on a whole 869 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 4: other right, you can miss a play at the plate. 870 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 4: We can talk about a bang bang play at second 871 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 4: base on a would be steel, all of those things. 872 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 4: This is just incompetence and he should have been sent 873 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 4: to the showers permanently. He's already spanned around by carbon. 874 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 4: It's Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show with Me by Carmen. 875 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,400 Speaker 4: Coming up next, we turn our attention to the National 876 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 4: Football Hey, are you into video game?

It's 901 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 7: the recommendation for me, is an entire reimagination. We have 902 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 7: arrived at the absolute nadir of this journey. We are 903 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 7: at the low point. We must now rebuild. Whether it 904 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 7: is bringing back Roberto Baggio and all of his insight 905 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 7: or finding some pass forward. But there is insight for 906 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 7: the game in in my homeland, but we are not 907 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 7: playing that way right now. And so four long years 908 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,240 Speaker 7: of waiting for the next World Cup, I congratulate Bosnia 909 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 7: and Herzegovina with a great moment for that country, but 910 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 7: an equal measure, a very difficult one for one of 911 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 7: for one that is very dear to my heart, that 912 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:48,800 Speaker 7: of course being Italy. 913 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 5: How big you know, I was wondering the country, how 914 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 5: how big do they take this? 915 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: Man? 916 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 5: I mean, equate it to what we do here in 917 00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 5: the United States. 918 00:43:59,160 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 3: Football is love. 919 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 7: Well, it's an interesting question, Arnie and Mike because and 920 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 7: this is something as we talk about this World Cup year, 921 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 7: and of course Fox Sports is gonna do a great 922 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 7: job broadcasting this amazing event around the world. There is 923 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 7: really nothing in sports. There is no national team in 924 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 7: the United States that would promote and bring about such 925 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 7: self loathing, introspection, period of mourning, however we wann to 926 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 7: describe it. If they lose a game. Obviously we did 927 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 7: not win the World Baseball Classic. We are not still 928 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 7: in mourning over that. If our basketball team did not 929 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 7: win a gold medal at the Olympics, it would be 930 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 7: a story for a few days, then we would move on. 931 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 7: In Italy, there is no moving on. This is the 932 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 7: sun and the moon and the stars. When I was 933 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 7: over there for the Olympics, and I would look at 934 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 7: La Gazetta delo Sport, which is still my favorite public 935 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 7: head anywhere in the world. There's a fifty page every 936 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:06,760 Speaker 7: day all sports newspaper, and you buy it in print 937 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 7: and you read it. It is every day at the 938 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 7: news stand there. And even in the Olympics, the paper 939 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 7: was roughly half Italian soccer and then half the Olympics 940 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 7: that were happening in the country. There was still more, 941 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 7: at least as much as the focus was on Italian soccer. 942 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 7: And so it will be pages and days of mourning 943 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,319 Speaker 7: after this loss today. And it's just it's the accumulation. 944 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 7: It was missing it at eighteen, missing it in twenty two. 945 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 7: But there's no comparison here because if if the Chiefs 946 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 7: win the Super Bowl and their team loses it, well, 947 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,840 Speaker 7: Kansas City is happy, and the other the other countries, 948 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 7: the other city isn't happy. It's different. It's the entire 949 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,839 Speaker 7: country in mourning. And there is no national sports team 950 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 7: that matters in the United States anywhere close to what 951 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 7: that team matters on a per person basis in Italy. 952 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 4: All right, JP, Well, in European soccer you get relegated 953 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 4: if you don't play well. What can Major League Baseball do? 954 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 4: Four and two, mister Buckner at this point, after the 955 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 4: most egregious error call on first base one thing we'll 956 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 4: talking about, you know, a game of millimeters behind the dish. 957 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 4: But the call tonight just exacerbates it all. 958 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 7: A couple of things. Number one CB has been a 959 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 7: really respected member of the baseball family for a long time, 960 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 7: regardless of the accuracy or lack thereof, of how it's 961 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 7: looks the last couple of days, he really is is 962 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 7: he's a very popular person in the game, is what 963 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 7: I will say at the outset, Number one and so 964 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 7: I do think this might be one of the unintended 965 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 7: consequences of this new system. The good news is that 966 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 7: those calls are getting corrected. That's the good news, Okay. 967 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 7: The bad news is that a good person's reputation is 968 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 7: becoming a bit of a punchline in the in the 969 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:10,320 Speaker 7: start of the season, which is unfortunate. And and on 970 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 7: some level perhaps the more that your work is critiqued, 971 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:18,400 Speaker 7: and if you use the playing side of the equation, 972 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 7: sometimes you're in a slump and you and you can't hit, 973 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 7: and then you get booed and you try harder and 974 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 7: you get boots some more and you strike out some more. 975 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 7: That's probably the umpiring equivalent right now of what of 976 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 7: what's going on that there's just mistakes are happening. Yes, 977 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 7: he makes mistakes. We all make mistakes. The rate of 978 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 7: the mistakes does seem to stand out. But the positive 979 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 7: side is that because of the system, it's not costing 980 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 7: teams games at the moment that he's that he is 981 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 7: getting corrected. So that's to me it is it's unfortunate. 982 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 7: I don't think anything will happen to him, if we're 983 00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 7: being honest. The umpires have a great union, they have 984 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 7: a great job security. I don't think he's going to 985 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:06,360 Speaker 7: be reassigned to a different league in the in the 986 00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:08,840 Speaker 7: first weeks of the season. They'll try to work with 987 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 7: him on whatever accuracy issues he might be able to correct. 988 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 7: But in terms of him getting an option to triple 989 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 7: A as can happen for a player, I don't think 990 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 7: that's going to happen. And and I suppose two things 991 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 7: will either happen. Either here will get better or he won't. 992 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,399 Speaker 7: And and if he doesn't, then that might be something 993 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 7: that handled more in a longer term review. But in 994 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 7: the near term, I do not believe anything's gonna happen. 995 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 6: You know, jp they say it's going to be obsolete anyway, 996 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:39,880 Speaker 6: that umpires are going to be obsolete. 997 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 5: Never we're gonna go to robot umpires. 998 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 6: I don't know if people think that we're gonna see 999 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 6: what C three po Stitty behind the plate from Star 1000 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,280 Speaker 6: Wars or something, but they're not going to be obsolute. 1001 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 5: We still need him around, don't we. 1002 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 7: We do, And for a variety of reasons, you still 1003 00:48:55,680 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 7: need people to make the true judgment calls that that 1004 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,439 Speaker 7: that a machine would not be able to detect such 1005 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 7: as a balk not not that we're going to have 1006 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:12,320 Speaker 7: four umpires paid for the express purpose of BOCH monitoring. 1007 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 11: That would be. 1008 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 3: Now that is a union power right. 1009 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 7: There, that would be That would be next level of 1010 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 7: union power. What are we doing here, guys? We're here 1011 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,359 Speaker 7: to watch for box. Really, that's that's the whole job. 1012 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 6: Yep. 1013 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 7: Just doom box here. 1014 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 9: Uh. 1015 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 7: I think that I believe that for as long as 1016 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 7: I am covering the game, hopefully it's a long time, 1017 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,760 Speaker 7: that we will still see four people on the infield. 1018 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 7: I just there are too many calls that are still 1019 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:46,720 Speaker 7: in the realm of judgment and monitoring the number of outs, 1020 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 7: the number of disengagements that are allowed, monitoring the shift, 1021 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 7: the shift rule that is come into play, a lot 1022 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 7: of things infield fly rule that you do need a 1023 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 7: human being there to handle. And so I don't believe 1024 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 7: that they're going to be obsolete. I don't believe that 1025 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 7: they're going to go away and the game is going 1026 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 7: to look different. But there there's no question Arnie and 1027 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 7: Mike that their their work, the work of umpires who 1028 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 7: buy and large do a magnificent job. It is it 1029 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 7: is being held to a different standard now and I 1030 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 7: think we're realizing just how fine the points are in 1031 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,040 Speaker 7: this sport. I mean, if you really go back and 1032 00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 7: look at it, Baseball, unlike football, provides this very quick. 1033 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 6: It is. 1034 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,760 Speaker 7: It is quick, but it's there a very rapid amount 1035 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:41,880 Speaker 7: of review for every single moment on the field. Basically, 1036 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:43,360 Speaker 7: I mean there are some that are not but for 1037 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 7: the most part every pitch in terms of the location. 1038 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,360 Speaker 7: Think about if we had this same situation, the same setup, 1039 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 7: where you could challenge within a fraction of an inch 1040 00:50:55,600 --> 00:51:00,920 Speaker 7: the spot on every single play in football, those games 1041 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:03,360 Speaker 7: would last for six days that they would never they 1042 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 7: would never end because every coach wanted no, no, no. 1043 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 7: I think it's it's on this ash marked, not that 1044 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,400 Speaker 7: ash mark. Now I think it's an inch forward. So 1045 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 7: it's baseball, because of its nature, is more susceptible to 1046 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 7: this conversation than any other sport. And that's good, and 1047 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:24,400 Speaker 7: it's also challenging, and I think that we're seeing that 1048 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 7: other part. But again, by all arts, this is a 1049 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 7: very very good thing. But we're seeing some of the 1050 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,319 Speaker 7: complexities now as you look at CEB's work and other 1051 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,359 Speaker 7: umpires that might be under similar scrutiny as season goes along. 1052 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, we certainly talk about a game of inches some 1053 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 4: of these reviews. He was er point three inches off. 1054 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 7: Oh, and we have seen some that are that are 1055 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 7: a tenths of an inch. Everybody that still has the 1056 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 7: English Customary System ruler hanging out around the house just like, 1057 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 7: go look at that and then realize how big or 1058 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 7: small a tenth of an inch is and then realized 1059 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 7: that that was how much an umpire was correct or 1060 00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 7: not correct by on something that was thrown at them 1061 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,399 Speaker 7: at one hundred miles an hour from sixty feet away. 1062 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:17,240 Speaker 7: It's really hard to be accurate with that particular vocation. 1063 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 7: And by the way, it's only gotten harder. It was 1064 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:24,400 Speaker 7: not quite as challenging when a fastball was eighty nine well. 1065 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 4: Or when you had your own strike zone JP. Right 1066 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:31,240 Speaker 4: now you're getting conforming to the new measurements and everything else. 1067 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 7: Right exactly everybody it used to be. And again this 1068 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 7: is going back into the eighties and nineties when there 1069 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,399 Speaker 7: were different chess protectors American League, in the National League, 1070 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 7: one was the breaking ball league, what was a fastball league, 1071 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 7: all kinds of different ways that the strike zone was called. 1072 00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:50,280 Speaker 7: But you're right now you've got everybody's strike zone changing, 1073 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:54,360 Speaker 7: and players have been shrinking, at least not actually shrinking, 1074 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 7: but there's been measures where classically a player said that 1075 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,400 Speaker 7: the he's getting dressed, yeah, I'm six feet tall, and 1076 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,480 Speaker 7: then they all realize that they're as tall as me, 1077 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 7: which is yeah, so saying come on, come out, by 1078 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 7: the way, like there have been plenty of players I've 1079 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 7: interviewed over the over the years, and I'm like, man, 1080 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 7: this guy's listened at six feet and I'm looking at 1081 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,439 Speaker 7: him eye to eye, like, yeah, I feel really good. 1082 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 7: I feel real tall. 1083 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 3: Now he's got Simmons boots on. 1084 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:24,719 Speaker 9: Come on, yeah, exactly, Maybe he's not six feet tall after, 1085 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 9: you know, JP, I want to ask you this, if 1086 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:30,800 Speaker 9: you ask privately now, what would they say if you 1087 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:32,120 Speaker 9: asked Paul Skeen's and. 1088 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 6: Logan Webb and Cal Riley and Gunner Henderson and Bryce 1089 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 6: Harper and Eric Judge and Kyle Schwarber. Was it best 1090 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:43,720 Speaker 6: plague in the WBC? Because they're off the miserable starts? 1091 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 7: You know, right, Arnie, it's a fair question. And Skeen 1092 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,320 Speaker 7: starts again tomorrow. I think he'll be better. And and 1093 00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 7: Skeen's in particular that that start was was heavily influenced 1094 00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 7: by the inability of the centerfielder to catch a couple 1095 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 7: of balls should have been caught. So I get it. 1096 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 7: And Raleigh, you're right. I'm watching him play tonight it seems, 1097 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,800 Speaker 7: you know, even defensively, doesn't quite seem like he's locked 1098 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 7: in yet either. I think that it's the experience. I 1099 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 7: believe to a player, they will all say it was 1100 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 7: worth it, that that it was, that it was a 1101 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,839 Speaker 7: great experience. We're still less than a week in here, 1102 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 7: so there's there's still a lot of a lot of 1103 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 7: ground to be made up. There's no question that you 1104 00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 7: that you're in a bit of a different routine. Again, 1105 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 7: you think about schemes and how little he's actually pitched 1106 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 7: probably in the last ten days, given how abbreviated the 1107 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:41,800 Speaker 7: star was. It's not ideal. The headline on your preparation 1108 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 7: for the season is probably it's not ideal, but it's 1109 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 7: worth it. It's not ideal, but it's great. You get 1110 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 7: to play on that stage. For a player, it's it's 1111 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:54,239 Speaker 7: one of those scrapbook memories in your career to play 1112 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 7: on a national team. And and I'm sure a lot 1113 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,400 Speaker 7: of these guys are hoping that by playing they get 1114 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 7: a chance to come back and up with years of 1115 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 7: the Olympics and have that experience. So if you're gonna 1116 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 7: slump for a week in a world where, by the way, 1117 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 7: your salary is still guaranteed, but you get to have 1118 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 7: a chance to have the experience of a lifetime, it's 1119 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 7: probably worth it. Now, if all of them by the 1120 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:18,440 Speaker 7: end of the year are in the bottom five percentile 1121 00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 7: of production, then maybe it's a different conversation. I'll give 1122 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 7: you a different answer, but a short term fluctuation and 1123 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 7: their performance I think is well worth the journey and 1124 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,879 Speaker 7: being part of one of the greatest teams in the world. 1125 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 7: Obviously wasn't the greatest because Venezuela was, but one of 1126 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 7: the great teams in the world there with Team USA. 1127 00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, Cal Rawley should have shaken his man's hand and 1128 00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 4: baseball karma wouldn't have got him even though he had 1129 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:43,600 Speaker 4: the game winner last night. 1130 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:45,239 Speaker 3: That's the other thing. 1131 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 7: And again that was obviously well within Cal's control. And 1132 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 7: and you know, it's hard again to climb into one's 1133 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 7: psyche and how it was all playing out, but it's 1134 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 7: that was probably kind of a tough thing for him 1135 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 7: to have to go through where people are kind of 1136 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:04,359 Speaker 7: criticizing him and and you know, critiquing what he did 1137 00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:06,800 Speaker 7: didn't do, And that's kind of a bummer of a 1138 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,240 Speaker 7: way to to start your year when you're just trying 1139 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 7: to represent your country the best that you can and 1140 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 7: maybe make a different decision that wouldn't quite has been 1141 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:17,840 Speaker 7: so loud, but here we are. It's a it's a 1142 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,840 Speaker 7: very very different time now and in LB where the 1143 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 7: one moment kind of goes viral, everybody's talking about it 1144 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 7: and and really hasn't quite stopped still here. 1145 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 10: To this day. 1146 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:28,800 Speaker 5: There he is. 1147 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 4: He's jompaal Morosi at John Morosi where you find him 1148 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,839 Speaker 4: in the Twitter verse, MLB Network.
