There's no reason to even suggest they would 35 00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:15.159 be. They're leaving the casino at that point in time. Hey, you 36 00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:16.960 know where I went last week? Just come think about it. Where'd you 37 00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:21.879 go? Fantasy Springs are our fol to the Dodgers? Yeah? Yeah, 38 00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:25.240 Fantasy Springs Casino. They're pretty cool. That is a nice place out there, 39 00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:30.080 is it really? And they're gonna come back and do Dodgers again this 40 00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:34.039 year? Is it big? Is it a big place? Yeah? And 41 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.400 they've got entertainment out there. You can really play golf on the award winning 42 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:40.840 Clive Clark Eagle Falls Golf Course. Oh look at you. You know what. 43 00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:46.159 You absolutely can go bowling, not a problem. You can see a 44 00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:51.000 show. It's all set up for you. Restaurants are green, one stop 45 00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.840 shop there. You never leave. H And it's funny that's the kind of 46 00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:57.719 place, as they were explaining to me, that people go out there, 47 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:00.360 Yeah, just to really get away a couple of days and enjoy themselves. 48 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:04.919 Just to get away for a couple of days. It's nice, it really 49 00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.199 is. They didn't pay for that today. But I just gonna fucked me. 50 00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.439 I'm gonna have to do that because that you know, you know, 51 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:14.520 I'm sure you're like me. Sometimes you just want to get away just for 52 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:15.599 a couple of days. You don't want to jump on a plane and go 53 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:20.599 anywhere. You want to just drive somewhere and you park, you know, 54 00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:24.199 and hang out and just get away from the everyday life. And it seems 55 00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:27.439 like that's a that's a perfect place to go do that. Yeah. And 56 00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.080 the thing I'm learning to is because when you sit here and actually it's an 57 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:32.919 Indio, we say, it's just you know, down the road from Palm 58 00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:37.520 Springs. For whatever reason, Indio has this stigma like, oh my god, 59 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.520 that's like twelve hours away. I can't go to Indio. Once you're 60 00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:46.240 out there, it's not that far, like twenty five minutes, just twenty 61 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:50.120 five minutes. I mean, it's not that far. So it was good 62 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.240 to get out there, good to meet the people, see what it is. 63 00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.240 And they're coming back during the Dodger season. So we're thrilled to have 64 00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:58.080 them back on board. Love that, Love that all right. Speaking of 65 00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:00.520 the Dodgers winter meetings, David Say is there. He is in Nashville. 66 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:04.319 He'll join us at twelve thirty. The question now becomes, what about shoey 67 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:08.800 Otani. You said it yesterday. Vic brought it up and he said, 68 00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:13.680 uh, Otani is wondering the streets of Nashville or whatever. He said, 69 00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:18.519 like a street walker. And you said, I don't think he's in Nashville, 70 00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:23.319 Vic, Oh, he's in Nashville. Yeah, because there was the 71 00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:27.000 media. The Japanese media was there, so he figured that they if they're 72 00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:30.439 there, they know something. Otani must be there. Well, here's what 73 00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:33.160 they should announced. He was in Florida yesterday. Yeah, at the Blue 74 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:39.920 Jays training facility, checking out where they conduct spring training. Yes, looking 75 00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:44.639 at the facilities. Yes, that's why would Why would anyone of that magnitude 76 00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.040 be in Nashville anyway at the winter meeting. Yeah, unless you're gonna sign 77 00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:49.439 and you fly in the night before. Yeah, right, unless they make 78 00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:51.959 a big announcement. So he a big deal about it. Yeah, No, 79 00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:56.920 players are going to really just be hanging out in Nashville right now. 80 00:04:56.959 --> 00:05:00.560 He did meet with the Dodgers, Dave Roberts just said last week before they 81 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.560 left for Nashville. So now he's doing his due diligence, you know, 82 00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:08.160 and depending on who you talk to, however, many teams are in the 83 00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:12.800 sweep stakes, but you won't really know till he gets all done. Here's 84 00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:16.720 the interesting thing is one I want to talk about today, reports that why 85 00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:20.920 might he stay with the Angels? Well, number one, because he likes 86 00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:27.439 losing? Freddy, Freddy, don't do that. That was that was a 87 00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:30.800 cheap shot. That wasn't good. Nice, My apologies to Ron Washington. 88 00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:34.120 Yeah, and Uncle Artie. You don't want to do that to him? 89 00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:40.120 To Uncle Artie? Yeah, Uncle Arty did. When did Hearty from Uncle 90 00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:45.920 Artie? He became uncle Arti when he decided not to sell the team and 91 00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:49.920 wanted to hang on to it for a few years more. All right, 92 00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:53.600 Yeah, we don't want to go Artie. That's that old uncle that just 93 00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:57.759 don't want to let go. All right, So we don't want to upset 94 00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:00.800 Uncle Artie, the cheap uncle too. Hey, using up on my hot 95 00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.680 water back there? Yeah, the use that cold water on him dishes. 96 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:11.040 That's not guardy right there. Well, we don't want to you had all 97 00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:15.199 my air close that door. I want to that door, and y'all, 98 00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:19.160 hey, he's got to take a shower together. Exactly. Everybody take a 99 00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:28.399 shower at the same time. You can use the same bath water. Water 100 00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:31.639 is still warm, get in that tub, all right. So anyway, 101 00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.519 why might he stay well? And we've heard this before, and I'm trying 102 00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:41.759 to figure out what it means. Because he's comfortable because they basically let him, 103 00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:45.120 uh go with his own routine, do what he wants to do. 104 00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:48.040 And and and by the way, there's something to that, you know, 105 00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:51.839 does it outweigh the type of money that they are throwing at him and a 106 00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:56.560 chance to win. Probably not, But there is a factor that is a 107 00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:03.160 factor. Being comfortable in your environment, being comfortable with your surroundings. From 108 00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:08.600 time to time you hear players talk about that that I was comfortable here. 109 00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:11.519 I like the city, I like the environment, I like my teammates, 110 00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:14.560 I like coming to work here every day. The environment's great, and it 111 00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:17.079 factors into it. So, I mean, it's not out of the realm 112 00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.920 that he feels that way. Now is that enough to hold on to him? 113 00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:25.720 I don't know. Well, but it's the routine. And from what 114 00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:28.560 I'm reading, it's like the angels let him do whatever he wants. Now, 115 00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:31.600 I don't even know what the definition of that is, but it's whatever 116 00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:35.360 he wants. So would that mean, you know, if we're in a 117 00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:39.519 team meeting, you don't have to be there. If we have a team 118 00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:43.199 picture, we'll find a guy your height and send him out there on your 119 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.839 jersey and then photoshop you're facing. You don't have to be in the team 120 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:51.680 picture. Could it be we have batting practice today, but you don't have 121 00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:57.600 to take batting practice. Could it be any number of things? Well, 122 00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:01.079 doesn't he take batting practice underneath you? Ually he doesn't take it on the 123 00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.240 field. I heard the story like that, but I don't think it's any 124 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:07.519 major things that will disrupt the team. He doesn't. He doesn't feel like 125 00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:13.319 he's that type of guy. But I would I would imagine that because of 126 00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.120 all of the attention that he gets on a regular base, especially probably when 127 00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.439 they travel to different cities, that he has to get some sort of of 128 00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.279 a special treatment, whether that be you know, and it could be under 129 00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:31.480 some guys that stay at a different hotel then the team would would stay at 130 00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:35.799 or or you know, transportation was different. So it might be some little 131 00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.919 nuances that he may have the ability to have people, you know, part 132 00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:45.960 of his camp that have you know, places and have carte blanche of the 133 00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:50.360 facility when he's there, like his his interpreters, his managers, his handlers. 134 00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:54.399 Because there might be a language barrier that he's allowed to have certain people 135 00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:56.600 around him at all times that can go areas that other people can't go. 136 00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:00.159 So it might be little things like that, But I don't think there be 137 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.039 anything that would disrupt the flow of the team, not like, yeah, 138 00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:07.360 I don't think he would do like a Russell Wilson, you know, go 139 00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:09.279 in and got my own I got my own office, I got my own 140 00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:13.639 masseuse, I got my own secretary here, and all those little things that 141 00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:16.720 Russ did when he first got there. Yeah, because that's what I'm trying 142 00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:22.240 to figure out. What is it that would seem so daunting that any other 143 00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:24.879 team would not accommodate, Because that's how it's being positioned. The reason he 144 00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.000 would say with the Angels is because hey, they let him do whatever he 145 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.840 wants. Well, what is it they let him do that is so daunting? 146 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:35.360 You know? Could it be he needs his people around him? That's 147 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:39.279 probably an accommodation any team would make. Yeah, right, yeah, I 148 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:45.000 mean that kind of him stuff but if it if it starts to bleed over 149 00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:50.879 into things that that Russell Wilson had his own office kind of thing. You're 150 00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:52.320 looking at the Dodgers and you say, all right, well, let's see 151 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.559 Mookie Betts. He's pretty good. Freddie Freeman, you know what, he 152 00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.519 can play a little bit. He can play a little bit. Yeah, 153 00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:03.159 and Kershaw was on this team and here we all could be this year. 154 00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:05.120 Yeah, you know what, not too many superstars bigger than him. Yeah, 155 00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:09.399 it wasn't bad. He was okay, right, he was all right 156 00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:13.879 as a player, And they're not getting all that stuff. Yeah, so 157 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.200 why are we going to give it to somebody else? So I think it 158 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:24.759 comes down to exactly what is it that enters into his routine that nobody else 159 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:28.559 would give him. And that's the thing I can't figure out. Yeah, 160 00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:31.360 I mean until he says it or his camp says it, we won't really 161 00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:35.039 know, and it's all going to be speculation. And I think people like 162 00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.000 to run with It's Atlanta. It's like he had to have white couches when 163 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.279 they traveled on the road. You know, his locker had to be decorated 164 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:46.399 a certain way, and everything had to be in Japanese when when he tried 165 00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:50.639 his ticket, his his name tag over his locker had to be that. 166 00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:52.159 I mean, it could be some crazy stuff that people are going to run 167 00:10:52.200 --> 00:11:00.200 with. But to me, I don't think that whatever his request made be 168 00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.759 that another team wouldn't match what the Angels have been doing since he's been there, 169 00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:09.600 Because I cannot be the only reason he would stay with the Angels, 170 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:13.799 correct, That cannot be the one reel. Well, they just let me 171 00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:18.360 do what I want. Therefore I will stay with the possibility that I will 172 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:24.360 never see the playoffs, right, I mean, just think about it. 173 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.360 Right? Yeah, but not enough. That's not enough for him to stay. 174 00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:31.120 That's what I'm thinking. I mean, when you played in the NFL, 175 00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:37.000 did guys have these requests? Uh? Did they try to isolate themselves 176 00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:41.360 with the things they asked for from other players? Yeah? But it wasn't 177 00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:45.759 It wasn't crazy crazy stuff like we just talked about with Russ And it became 178 00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:48.159 a running joke with him up in Denver to the point where you know, 179 00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:50.720 Sean Payton had to look at him going, man, this is all you 180 00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:54.840 got to cut all this out. This is not gonna work, And and 181 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.960 and he and Russ fed into all the what his teammates used to say about 182 00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:01.879 them in Seattle, how they you know, it was dysfunctional with him in 183 00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:07.440 the locker room. But no, it would be you know, small things, 184 00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:11.320 you know, And and it was mainly the guys in in Dallas because 185 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:16.159 Dallas was such during that time. It was they were I never seen anything 186 00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:20.240 like it in Dallas really, just how the players were treated and just how 187 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:28.960 rock starish being being a part of that organization was at that time. Yeah, 188 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:31.679 there were there were special entrances and things like that when we traveled to 189 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:37.519 the hotel that Emmett and Troy would have to go into certain things that training 190 00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:43.000 camp that they would they would be allowed to do to avoid some of the 191 00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:48.559 crazy crowds that were around. But nothing nothing so outrageous that you didn't you 192 00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:50.240 like, looked up and go, I can't understand why he's doing this. 193 00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:54.919 That's so selfish or that's terrible, or that's that's uh, that's gonna mess 194 00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:58.600 with the team chemistry. Nothing like that I've ever seen since I was playing. 195 00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.639 I played for sixteen, so I didn't see any of that. Okay, 196 00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:05.799 and again, so let's go back to Wotani. When you see that, 197 00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:11.080 you're thinking, what what could these requests be that would be so insane 198 00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:18.000 that a would force him to stay with the Angels or be preclude him from 199 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:20.840 signing with anybody else. I just can't imagine what they would be. Maybe 200 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:24.639 it was, maybe it was the j LO I gotta have, you know, 201 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:28.559 white couches in my hotel room when I travel, I got to have 202 00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:33.200 green m and ms wherever I go, and I only want Avion water. 203 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:37.200 And maybe it was I want my own plane. Who knows what it is. 204 00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:41.960 Yeah, I'm gonna travel separately. I travel separately. I need my 205 00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:45.679 own plane. You can't do that, And you know, no one's gonna 206 00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:46.840 do that. No one's gonna hear him his own plane. And from what 207 00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:50.360 we know, which we don't know a whole lot, because he's very, 208 00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.120 you know, very private with his private life. We don't know he's like, 209 00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:56.639 but he doesn't seem like he's that kind of guy that would request certain 210 00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:00.879 things like that, or I need my own plane, or I'm going to 211 00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:05.879 stay at a total different hotel than everybody else. Sometimes that might be the 212 00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:07.360 case to kind of throw off the set a little bit, and I get 213 00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:09.960 that, but to say that, yeah, I want my own plane, 214 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:16.639 I want you know, certain things that are just ridiculous that no other player 215 00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:22.600 would want or get at that period of time. Today, veterans are giving 216 00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:26.159 back to the community and handing out holiday trees to those in need. Our 217 00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:28.840 annual season of giving is happening right now. Help raise money for Dream Center 218 00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:33.759 LA to provide holiday meals for families in need, toys for kids, holiday 219 00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:37.080 trees delivered by veterans that want to get back to our community. You can 220 00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:41.039 help donate now at a five seventy LA sports dot Com. David Vassill be 221 00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:43.720 out at twelve thirty. We'll ask him what he's heard. Maybe he knows 222 00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:50.159 what these requests would be. When we come back. All right, he's 223 00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:54.879 in a plane, he made a video and now he's going to jail for 224 00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.840 six months. We'll explain, Oh yeah, oh yeah, gotta let this 225 00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:03.240 marinate a little bit longer. Fred, we're in the holiday season, man, 226 00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:05.919 Ronnie has been doing it. He's coming with it with the holiday music 227 00:15:05.960 --> 00:15:11.440 and I absolutely love it. And I'm here for Rodney pet Fred Rogan on 228 00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:15.399 a Tuesday, Let's go. You know, when we were younger, we 229 00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.840 did stupid things. Probably we would never tell anybody the stupidest thing we did. 230 00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:24.000 Now. Back then nobody knew we did it because there was no way 231 00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:28.480 to capture it. Well, today you can capture everything, and people think 232 00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:33.919 they can make a splash or gain notoriety by doing pretty stupid things. Remember 233 00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:37.519 your jackass. Yes, okay, yes, that was all about I'm just 234 00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:43.840 gonna put myself in a position to get crushed smashed. This made a fortune 235 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:46.840 and make a fortune out of it, all right. But even back then 236 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.200 we were to savvy with our phones. We didn't have the ability to do 237 00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:52.919 the kinds of things we can do today. So I know this story happened 238 00:15:54.080 --> 00:16:00.279 in twenty twenty one, but the result has now been been sent out an 239 00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:06.759 influencer. Trevor Daniel Jacob, thirty years old, an experienced pilot and skydiver. 240 00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:11.519 In June, he did plead guilty to one kunt of destruction and concealment 241 00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:17.519 with the intent to obstruct a federal investigation. So what he did he had 242 00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:18.679 an idea, I know how people are going to look at my stuff. 243 00:16:19.679 --> 00:16:23.480 I know how I got sponsors. I know how some television network will pick 244 00:16:23.559 --> 00:16:27.000 me up to do a show of insane things. This is my idea. 245 00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:33.120 I'm a pilot, right, I'm gonna get in the plane, I'm gonna 246 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:37.879 take off, I'm gonna start flying the plane. Then when i'm I'm gonna 247 00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:44.399 record all of it. I'll have cameras everywhere. Then you will actually see 248 00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:48.799 me, because what I'm gonna say is that the plane was having problems and 249 00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:53.200 I had to bail out of the plane. So you will watch me bail 250 00:16:53.240 --> 00:17:00.480 out of the plane with a parachute and parachute to safety a moving plane that 251 00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:07.559 I'm the pilot of. What could possibly go wrong with that? What could 252 00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:12.599 possibly mess up with that? Yeah? And then yeah, who's gonna have 253 00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:15.599 an issue with that? Yeah, I mean, nobody's gonna have an issue 254 00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:18.359 with that. I'm I'm you know, no one's gonna. I'm not gonna 255 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:22.920 get in trouble for this. Oh my god, did you? I mean 256 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.000 I watched this thing? The guy it was. First of all, he 257 00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:34.799 was way too like calm to suggest that, like the plane had issues on 258 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:41.720 its own, Like it wasn't like it wasn't playing. Come on, he's 259 00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:47.200 way too calm up in the air. Oh my god, holy holy holy, 260 00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:52.920 like doing all that knowing that he's crashing the plane on purpose, claiming 261 00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:56.000 that it's got engine failure or whatever. His failure has got that the plane 262 00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:59.640 he's got to bail out. Do you think one of the keys when investigators 263 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:02.519 looked at this was that he was holding a selfie stick in his hand. 264 00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:06.720 Do you think that might have been a little bit of a giveaway? Do 265 00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:11.799 you think so? And do you think that a company hired him to promote 266 00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:17.599 a product which he agreed he would do, is he was jumping out of 267 00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:22.480 the plane, do you think when the investigators looked at that, they might 268 00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:26.000 have thought, I'm not so sure you had engine problems with that plane. 269 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:30.720 And do you think anybody, anybody would have been concerned that the plane crashed. 270 00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:37.119 Do you think that was a problem at all? But the plane crashed, 271 00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:41.400 Yeah, So you know, the only good thing is that he did 272 00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:45.319 crash it in the middle of nowhere, in the mountain somewhere. But still 273 00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:48.279 you don't know, you know, you don't know. It could have been 274 00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:51.839 a gust of wind or whatever. If there's engine failure, the plane is 275 00:18:51.880 --> 00:18:55.920 just on its own. You don't know. If that plane gets knocked off 276 00:18:55.960 --> 00:19:00.920 course and happens to you know, drift to a popular I mean, anything 277 00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:06.000 could happen when you're that high and you're you're talking about a plane just floating 278 00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:10.480 on its own. Do you think it was a problem ridus when the Justice 279 00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:14.319 Department talked to him and said, look, you told us about the crash, 280 00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:18.839 you're responsible for preserving the wreckage, and you've got to tell us where 281 00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:21.480 it is. And then he lied and said he didn't know where the location 282 00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:25.359 was. Do you think there was a problem when he investigators looked into that, 283 00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:26.640 it was a big problem. I think it was a big problem. 284 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.920 He didn't know where it was, But then he didn't he find the plane 285 00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:33.680 right after it crashed, or went to the plane and it was you know, 286 00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:37.160 had videotape of the plane once it was down. Yeah, But do 287 00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:41.000 you think that they didn't know where it was? No? No, But 288 00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:44.839 do you think this was a problem that then he and a friend flew to 289 00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:48.400 the site in a helicopter that was used to lift the wreckage and fly it 290 00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:51.839 to a trailer attached to his pickup truck. According to the agreement he signed, 291 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:53.920 the plane was later cut up and the parts were disposed of and trash 292 00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:59.720 bench. There's a problem you think that was an issue, Yeah, kind 293 00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:06.359 of. What So for this marvelous attempt at becoming a major league influencer, 294 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:11.799 he will spend six months in federal prison. What is wrong with people? 295 00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:17.880 Yeah? Good? You know this, this desire, this need, this 296 00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:22.799 this yearning to be famous and to have people know who you are and to 297 00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:29.279 follow you, it's really unhealthy. It's just unhealthy that you would live your 298 00:20:29.319 --> 00:20:33.279 life that way. Can you imagine how many people could have been hurt? 299 00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:34.839 I mean, and at this point it's terrible to say, well, if 300 00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:37.559 he died, that's his problem, But who else could have been hurt? 301 00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:45.039 Who else could have been victimized by this? Then to lie to federal agents 302 00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:51.319 about it? Crash a plane? That is messed up, Rodney. I'm 303 00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:56.359 just telling you it is. It's messed up, and it's a you know 304 00:20:56.519 --> 00:21:00.160 kind of it feels like I'm making a mockery out of you know, pilots 305 00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:06.079 or even emergency situations that you're going to stage this, you know, for 306 00:21:06.160 --> 00:21:10.720 people that have been in real life tragic situations or pilots that I have had 307 00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:15.880 to deal with, you know, real life situation. It's just like feels 308 00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:19.119 like he's making a mockery of it, a joke of it for his own 309 00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:23.200 personal gain. I'll ever tell you a story about when I was flying to 310 00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:27.920 Newark. No, okay, So and I just take this flight all the 311 00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:30.240 time. And I worked for NBC because I flying to Newark to go to 312 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.599 New York. Yeah, I figured it was just quicker than flying in the 313 00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.240 JFK. So we flying in new Work. We're up here, we go, 314 00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:41.759 we're about hitting We're getting close to Vegas and all of a sudden you 315 00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:45.160 feel the plane turn around. Plane turns around, is headed back to LA 316 00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:48.200 And I'm saying to myself, I think we're going back to Los Angeles. 317 00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:51.519 Sure enough, we're going back to Los Angeles. We land. They say, 318 00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:52.960 listen, there was a mechanical issue. We're going to get it addressed, 319 00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:56.480 and uh, we'll let you know. You know, when it's ready 320 00:21:56.519 --> 00:22:00.359 to go, Everybody off the plane. Everybody get off the plane. So 321 00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:03.839 we all get off the plane. We're back in the waiting area and the 322 00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:07.880 pilots are off the plane. Now they're standing behind the place where you check 323 00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.200 in. They're just standing there talking. So of course me I walked up. 324 00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:11.640 I said, hey, guys, what happened? They said, oh, 325 00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:15.799 that's not a big deal. We had a failure of the central hydraulic 326 00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:21.160 system. I said, hm, hydraulics, isn't that what makes the plane 327 00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:23.880 go up in the air? And the guy goes yeah. I said it 328 00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:27.559 was failing. He goes yeah, oh yeah, yeah. I said, 329 00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:30.559 well, what would have happened? He said, well, it wouldn't have 330 00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:33.240 stayed in the air. That's why we came back to Los Angeles. So 331 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.400 I said, oh, my god, that's got to be the worst thing 332 00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:40.759 is a pilot you've ever dealt with. Then the guys said, oh, 333 00:22:40.839 --> 00:22:42.759 no, you want to hear a story. I said, sure. Again. 334 00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:47.039 They were flying to Newark. I wasn't on this flight. So they 335 00:22:47.039 --> 00:22:49.359 get up in the air and they're flying and they're going and all of a 336 00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:52.720 sudden, they put the seat belt signs on. So the seat belt signs 337 00:22:52.720 --> 00:22:59.200 are on, and I don't know if they triggered the oxygen masks or not, 338 00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:03.240 but he said, the seatbelt sides are on. And he said one 339 00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:07.839 of the flight attendants knocked down the door and they didn't open it immediately right, 340 00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:11.839 And he said, so she knocked again. She knocked again, and 341 00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:15.440 she said from outside the door, some of the passengers are uncomfortable, can 342 00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.720 you you know, let me know what's going on. They opened the door 343 00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:25.039 and the cockpit was on fire. It was on fire, and the guy 344 00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:32.519 said, the co pilot had the fire extinguisher out and they were wearing masks, 345 00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:38.039 and he said, they put the fire out, landed, fixed it 346 00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:42.000 whatever they did, and took off again. And I said, oh my 347 00:23:42.319 --> 00:23:47.000 god. He said, no, that stuff really happens, but that's why 348 00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:49.039 we're here to take care of it. And then when you hear about this 349 00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:56.319 guy jumping out of a plane making a mockery of stuff when people have actually 350 00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:00.160 had to deal with those situations, it just makes you think that's that's wrong 351 00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:03.599 on so many yeah, so many levels, so many levels. I mean, 352 00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:08.880 you know, life is a blessing, right, Why why are you 353 00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:15.480 trying to intentionally jeopardize your own life? And then not to mention, yeah, 354 00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:21.160 you crashed it an open air up in the mountains and seemed like nobody 355 00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:23.079 was around, but against who knows how that plane could have drifted. But 356 00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:26.880 yeah, just for the real folks out there, for the for the pilots 357 00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:30.039 that had, like you said, been through real situations, that's not funny 358 00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:33.279 to them, No, not at all. All right, don't forget. 359 00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:38.319 During the program today we all getting away tickets and those tickets will be for 360 00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:42.759 the Chargers and Broncos game. Of course, the game will be it so 361 00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:47.559 fine, So we'll give you a chance to win, and uh we'll give 362 00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:51.519 you to to call there. Also next hour we'll be discussing the NBA and 363 00:24:51.599 --> 00:24:57.599 Season Tournament, which everybody loves, which everybody loves, and tonight's Lakers are 364 00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:00.720 in a quarterfinal match against the feat Nick Suns. Now, for to be 365 00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:03.640 honest and fair, we don't really know what any of that means, but 366 00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.200 I know this. People love the nd season Tournament, and that means I'll 367 00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:11.880 have the tournament court out tonight, which I think every game should be played 368 00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:15.200 on those tournament courts. I love those courts. I'm telling you, it's 369 00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:17.799 the best thing about the tournament is the courts, right. I think that 370 00:25:17.839 --> 00:25:22.279 they should play all games on those courts each and every year, and not 371 00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:26.240 just the tournament games. You know, at first some people thought, oh, 372 00:25:26.279 --> 00:25:27.960 I don't know about that, But then when you really look at me 373 00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:33.039 and watch the game, it's fun. It kind of looks more like European 374 00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:38.160 basketball. Yeah, you know. Yeah. Oh, European basketball meets space 375 00:25:38.279 --> 00:25:45.680 jam, I love it all right. We're trying to hook up with David 376 00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:49.559 Vassa, who was at the Winter meetings in Nashville, and when we get 377 00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:52.880 him on the line, we'll do it. Busy man down there, he's 378 00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.680 busy. Well, something might be breaking right now for all weeks. Yeah, 379 00:25:56.920 --> 00:26:00.640 never know, something might be going on. Dave rob did say that 380 00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:06.519 they met with Shohey Otani just before everybody left for Nashville, and that conversation 381 00:26:06.680 --> 00:26:10.160 was at Dodger Stadium. So the Dodgers did have their meeting with Otani. 382 00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:12.279 We know he has now met with the Blue Jays because he was at their 383 00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:17.400 training facility yesterday in Florida. What was it about the Blue Jays that they 384 00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:19.720 were saying that he loves the city. He loves Toronto as a city too, 385 00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:23.119 Yeah, and he likes to hitting that ballpark. Likes to hitting that 386 00:26:23.160 --> 00:26:27.519 ballpark. Yeah, likes to hitting that ballpark. Uh, so we know 387 00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:33.200 that is in fact in play. In the meantime, the Dodgers continue on 388 00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:37.279 in their quest. He liked that short porch, that porch and right field 389 00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:41.599 at Dodgers Stadium too. There's no there's actually no reason for him not to 390 00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:45.119 sign with the Dodgers unless they're gonna pay him the most money. They're gonna 391 00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:51.279 do whatever needs to be done. Unless his wishes are so bizarre they will 392 00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:56.000 accommodate all of them. So I can't see why he wouldn't sign with the 393 00:26:56.039 --> 00:27:00.559 Dodgers. But you know, as Vic says, nobody knows what he's thinking, 394 00:27:00.039 --> 00:27:03.839 and there's absolutely no indication at this point of what is going on. 395 00:27:04.359 --> 00:27:11.960 In the meantime, they remain committed to Yamamoto. That's the guy they're committed 396 00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:15.359 to. That's the guy they're trying to chase down and sign. Twenty five 397 00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:18.119 year old Japanese right hander. That would be a pretty good deal if they 398 00:27:18.119 --> 00:27:22.079 could pull that off. There's now a sense too that the name Dylan cecila 399 00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:26.319 White Sox has been mentioned and the way that, well, here, we've 400 00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:27.079 got Dave right now. I'll just bring him on. Hey, Dave, 401 00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:32.480 how are you. I'm doing great, guys. Yeah, Dave Roberts for 402 00:27:32.559 --> 00:27:37.000 the second straight day making some news here at the Winter Meetings where there really 403 00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:44.000 hasn't been, and he confirmed when asked by reporters during his manager media sesshin 404 00:27:44.119 --> 00:27:47.960 whether or not the Dodgers had met with sho Hey Otani not only did he 405 00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:52.240 confirm the Dodgers had met with him, he was involved in the meeting and 406 00:27:52.279 --> 00:27:56.240 he said it took place two to three days ago at Dodgers Stadium. So 407 00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:03.759 he's the first guy to say anything about meeting with Otani confirming that the Dodgers 408 00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:07.039 had met with him. What the ramifications to that is? And I don't 409 00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:11.880 know, but I appreciate the transparency because, look, we're not trying to 410 00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:15.880 solve world peace here. It's baseball, and I think that needs to be 411 00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:22.119 in context because from everybody's standpoint here in Nashville, it's becoming a little ridiculous 412 00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:26.079 with the process. Ridiculous. I mean, does it so much attention, 413 00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:29.640 Dave? I mean, I know you've got there's a contingency here now, 414 00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:34.640 the secrecy about everything, the secrecy about it, and a lot of people 415 00:28:34.720 --> 00:28:41.039 that cover the sport feel like Otani has kind of done a disservice to Major 416 00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:47.880 League Baseball by not handling his free agency as publicly as Lebron James did for 417 00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:51.519 the NBA. I mean, that's why everybody's here at the Winter meetings and 418 00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:56.039 it seems like a lot of people believe the secrecy has not done the league 419 00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:00.960 any favors to try to grab the headlines from sport. It's like the NFL 420 00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:03.960 and NBA during the winter most month. What would you have him do, 421 00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:07.240 Dave? Differently, would you have him talk about the teams that he's meeting 422 00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:10.440 with? I mean, what would you have Otanian in his camp do? 423 00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:15.119 He doesn't need to say anything, But you know this, guys, there's 424 00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:18.559 ways to get information out and create buzz. Lebron does it better than anybody. 425 00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:25.119 And let's face it, O'toni is major League Baseball's transcendent athlete and he 426 00:29:25.200 --> 00:29:32.519 has six million followers on Instagram. There's ways to create buzz and that's just 427 00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:37.079 the way he and his representative have preferred it since he arrived here in Major 428 00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:42.880 League Baseball to be extremely secretive. And Jeff Passing reported that any team that 429 00:29:44.319 --> 00:29:48.119 you know, gives any details about meetings, it's going to be held against 430 00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:52.920 them. So all of those things have kind of scared everybody into not really 431 00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:57.480 talking about it as much as Ave Roberts did today. Dave, when the 432 00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:00.200 reports come out, well, you know, the the Angels still could be 433 00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:03.599 in it, because you know they accommodate his requests, and he's a big 434 00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:07.799 routine guy. What in the world could his request be that would be so 435 00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:11.319 astronomical that no one else would go? You know, we're good with that. 436 00:30:14.119 --> 00:30:18.160 I think anybody would meet any requests Otani had that are still in it, 437 00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:21.880 and I've told you guys, the Blue Jays are in it. I 438 00:30:21.880 --> 00:30:26.039 don't know what Otani's thinking, whether it's the Dodgers, the Angels, the 439 00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:30.839 Blue Jays, but I would imagine any team would be able to be a 440 00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:36.839 little nimble with the requests and we'll see where it goes. But right now, 441 00:30:36.880 --> 00:30:41.720 nobody knows his thinking. And even Dave Roberts was asked what was O'tani's 442 00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:45.920 demeanor in the meeting, and he said he has a very good poker face. 443 00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:48.720 So not even in that meeting, according to Dave Roberts, would he 444 00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:52.799 tip whether or not he was all in or not. Is it still the 445 00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.720 feeling day He's not. This is not going to drag out though long. 446 00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.640 This is going to happen maybe before the New Year, before or Christmas, 447 00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:04.759 board holidays. A lot of people believed it was gonna happen during this week 448 00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:11.200 here in Nashville Rodney, But there were reports that the Blue Jays GM met 449 00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:15.279 with o'tani at their spring training facility in Florida and then flew to Nashville. 450 00:31:15.359 --> 00:31:21.200 So, honestly, I think the expectation, the buzz around the winter meetings 451 00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:25.799 from the people I've spoken to, believe that o'tanni will make his decision within 452 00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:30.279 the next week or two. Hey, Dave, rumors floating around the Dodgers, 453 00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:34.000 maybe interest in trading for Randy A Rose Arena, any truth to that? 454 00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:41.279 I don't. I mean, I like Randia Rose Arena. I just 455 00:31:41.319 --> 00:31:45.559 don't know if that's that's one hundred percent accurate. Maybe his name was brought 456 00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:51.839 up in a conversation, but certainly the Raisin Dodgers are talking about Tyler Glass 457 00:31:51.839 --> 00:31:56.599 now more than Randy A Rose Arena. Not a Glass now, Oh yeah, 458 00:31:56.720 --> 00:32:00.359 yeah, yeah yeah. And what's the latest on Dylan c Is it 459 00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:04.880 reports that the White Sox the Dodger's not close to what the White Sox want. 460 00:32:04.920 --> 00:32:08.359 Are the White Sox being overly greedy for what they want? For sees, 461 00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:14.519 Well, there's two more years of control for Cees and he's a number 462 00:32:14.519 --> 00:32:20.160 two, number three type of starting pitcher and That's what I'm hearing as well. 463 00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:25.279 It's not close to moving anytime soon. While we're in Nashville. The 464 00:32:25.319 --> 00:32:30.720 Sea's market and basically it's not moving until Otani signs because then you're starting to 465 00:32:30.720 --> 00:32:36.240 get more teams that did not land Otani, or if they did land Otani, 466 00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:38.640 have a little bit more clarity on what their roster and needs are going 467 00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:44.119 to look like. So, yeah, the talks aren't continuing between the White 468 00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:47.200 Sox and Dodgers and a few other teams, but nothing is close to happening 469 00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:52.640 right now. And what happened to talk about Corbyn Burns is that dead It 470 00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:59.480 seems to be fred From what I'm gathering, the Brewers are intent on keeping 471 00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:05.599 Burns until the trade deadline. That seems to be the scuttle. But surrounding 472 00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:09.839 Milwaukee and what they're looking at, maybe things would change depending on what they 473 00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:15.119 were offered. If there's a deal that they cannot turn down, then I'm 474 00:33:15.160 --> 00:33:20.160 sure they would consider it. But the buzz in the lobby here in Nashville 475 00:33:20.240 --> 00:33:24.160 is that the Brewers intend to keep Corbyn Burns until midway through the season to 476 00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:30.799 see whether or not they're in the week and ol Central race hey, forget 477 00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:32.400 all that other stuff. How you doing down there in Nashville, Dave? 478 00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:37.359 What you've been doing man the last few days? I'm doing great.

I want to say, Fred did that to get 546 00:38:31.199 --> 00:38:34.679 back at all of us, for all those times that he had to do 547 00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:37.000 this. You know what's funny. I love me and I wish I had 548 00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:42.880 have done it today because I'm so unto the work of the Portland Rapper me 549 00:38:42.920 --> 00:38:46.280 and I yeah, yeah, yeah, certainly not like the spelling at all, 550 00:38:58.159 --> 00:39:00.800 nor weekly chat with a good friend. Jacob and Ronnie Jacob. How 551 00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:04.800 are you today, gentlemen, gentlemen, how are you good? Here's the 552 00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:08.719 question, here's the question. So we talked about this guy earlier. He 553 00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:14.519 was an influencer. A pilot flew the plane, jumped out of the plane, 554 00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:17.480 had a selfie stick recorded the whole thing, had a parachute on, 555 00:39:19.199 --> 00:39:22.400 parachuted to safety. He wanted to do it as an influencer to promote some 556 00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:28.880 product, plane crashes into the forest, guide lies to the Feds, then 557 00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:31.119 he gets six months in prison. Is that enough for that? Jacob? 558 00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:37.760 Is that enough or what for what he did? Crashed the plane into the 559 00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:49.159 forest on purpose? Are you kidding me? Absolutely? I mean, I 560 00:39:49.199 --> 00:39:52.400 mean you look at stuff like that, and then you look at somebody who 561 00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:58.039 got twelve years fifteen years, you know, for something that was not even 562 00:39:58.079 --> 00:40:00.639 intentional. I mean, you know, those are the type of things that 563 00:40:00.719 --> 00:40:06.519 sometimes, you know, really makes you want there. That's a good point. 564 00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:10.599 I think it's a very good point. Uh, Jacob and season tournament 565 00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:15.599 tonight? Uh, quarterfinal game Lakers and Phoenix. You love the nd season 566 00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:20.280 Tournament, don't you? I do? I? Actually you know I didn't. 567 00:40:20.719 --> 00:40:23.400 I didn't start loving it, but I think and as I watched these 568 00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:27.400 games, and as I see how you know, exciting it is. I 569 00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:32.000 was watching the Sacramento game last night with New Orleans that was a really exciting 570 00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:39.559 game. I watched the Pacers beat the Celtics. That was an exciting game. 571 00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:43.280 You know, I can't wait to go tonight. That's good. Are 572 00:40:43.280 --> 00:40:47.679 you guys coming any either of you? I'm waiting for Vegas? Are you 573 00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:51.239 You're waiting for the finals. Yeah, I'm waiting for Vegas. No, 574 00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:53.960 I don't wait to go to Vegas. Yeah, I think your big time, 575 00:40:54.039 --> 00:40:58.199 Rodney. We can't go to Vegas. So we're just gonna go right 576 00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.079 here, just start having our back yard. You know, just got a 577 00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:05.159 crypto. Oh Jacob, No, now listen, you're talking to a guy 578 00:41:05.199 --> 00:41:07.559 that knows you. Now, I know you can go to Vegas. Come 579 00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.800 home, brother. But you're right though, I think that, you know, 580 00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:15.000 as time has gone on, I think it has gotten to the players 581 00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:17.960 where this is this is actually pretty good and pretty cool. And I think 582 00:41:19.000 --> 00:41:22.159 they're more into it as these games have gotten on and they played more, 583 00:41:22.159 --> 00:41:25.920 and now we're getting close to the finals. I think it is becoming something 584 00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:31.800 that the that the guys are taking more seriously. Oh absolutely. I mean 585 00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:35.320 you could see it. You could see it in their face. I mean, 586 00:41:35.360 --> 00:41:37.039 you know, it's interesting. You know, I was watching a game 587 00:41:37.119 --> 00:41:44.400 where the Celtics were up by I think eighteen points and then they started to 588 00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:46.800 take a couple of more threes because they had to win by like twenty eight 589 00:41:46.880 --> 00:41:52.320 or twenty nine, and the Celtic coach kind of walked over to the Chicago 590 00:41:52.400 --> 00:41:53.679 coach and was explaining telling, hey, you know what, I'm not really 591 00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:58.079 running this up, but we need to you know, we need that point 592 00:41:58.079 --> 00:42:01.159 differential. And I was like, how interesting because you know, usually you 593 00:42:01.239 --> 00:42:06.320 got people who get angry why somebody takes a you know, a layup at 594 00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:08.639 the end of the game and people start to push each other, and here 595 00:42:08.719 --> 00:42:13.079 this guy just ran up another ten points. So you could tell that they're 596 00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:16.639 all in and you know, those regular things that would tick them off as 597 00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:20.440 a regular season game, you know, is off the table. They know 598 00:42:20.480 --> 00:42:23.920 what they're going for. Jacob Our listeners love when you offer advice, and 599 00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:27.280 this is something I've been thinking about for some time. You get to an 600 00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:30.800 accident, you start dealing with it, how long should your your case take? 601 00:42:31.119 --> 00:42:37.519 Because I think we here want immediate action, immediate answers, and I 602 00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:40.440 think it leads to people taking the first off or presented to them. Does 603 00:42:40.480 --> 00:42:45.320 that happen happens often? And I think, you know, this is a 604 00:42:45.360 --> 00:42:51.599 really important topic because you know, people get involved in accidents and everybody wants 605 00:42:51.639 --> 00:42:54.599 to know how quickly is it going to be over? The problem is if 606 00:42:54.639 --> 00:43:00.679 your case is over really quickly, it means that you expectations of how much 607 00:43:00.760 --> 00:43:06.400 you can recover or you want to recover for your injuries are not really reasonable. 608 00:43:07.000 --> 00:43:09.000 You know, as attorneys, we work on a contingency, and what 609 00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:15.480 that means is our clients don't pay us a penny until and unless we win, 610 00:43:15.280 --> 00:43:19.320 and you know, when we're trying to get them a just settlement, 611 00:43:20.199 --> 00:43:25.519 it is important that we as attorneys ethically do everything in our power to number 612 00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:29.360 one, get them the best treatment and number two, get them the best 613 00:43:29.360 --> 00:43:32.079 settlement. What en is up happening is that depending on the type of attorney 614 00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:37.360 that you pick, that could be completely different. At our firm, you 615 00:43:37.400 --> 00:43:43.199 know, over ninety percent of our cases settle without having to file a lawsuit. 616 00:43:43.599 --> 00:43:45.599 And if you don't have to file a lawsuit, that means your case 617 00:43:45.639 --> 00:43:52.400 is settling before the two year statute of limitation. The problem here becomes is 618 00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:57.840 that often a lot of firms are not even willing to file a lawsuit on 619 00:43:57.920 --> 00:44:00.719 a case, and they're just settling your case and telling you this is the 620 00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:05.480 best offer, and usually it's the first or second offer. At our firm, 621 00:44:05.960 --> 00:44:09.679 unless we get at least three to four back and forth with the adjuster, 622 00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:16.320 we don't even look at potentially even recommending a potential settlement to our clients 623 00:44:16.360 --> 00:44:22.159 because we know they got more money and if the facts actually are there, 624 00:44:22.800 --> 00:44:29.000 we have no problems fighting for three to four years. The issue becomes is 625 00:44:29.039 --> 00:44:34.000 trying to make sure that a client is also as devoted to the timeline. 626 00:44:34.440 --> 00:44:37.239 So, you know, what I want all the listeners to know is that 627 00:44:37.719 --> 00:44:42.239 trying to push for your case to settle immediately is not always in your best 628 00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:45.800 interest. What's in your best interest is to take the time, get as 629 00:44:45.880 --> 00:44:52.280 much treatment as you truly need, and then allowing your attorney to take the 630 00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:55.599 time that they need in order to settle your case. So don't rush your 631 00:44:55.639 --> 00:45:00.480 attorney, especially if your attorney is a litigator like we litigate, you know, 632 00:45:00.679 --> 00:45:04.400 hundreds and hundreds of cases every year, and we're not willing to take 633 00:45:04.440 --> 00:45:07.440 the first offer. And for that reason, the insurance companies know that if 634 00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:12.679 they're going to throw some lobile offer at us, it's immediately going to go 635 00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:17.159 to our litigation department. And that's why our clients often, uh you know, 636 00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:22.519 get the higher end of those offers and benefit from it because of the 637 00:45:22.559 --> 00:45:25.440 fact that we're not trying to get the first offer. Turn you know turn 638 00:45:25.519 --> 00:45:30.000 and turn these cases. We want every case to get enough attention and to 639 00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:35.280 get the value it deserves. Outstanding, Jacob. We love when you come 640 00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.360 on. Thanks thanks for the advice today. Thank you guys. Have a 641 00:45:38.360 --> 00:45:43.320 great day you too. All right, more on the tournament. Likers play 642 00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:46.639 Phoenix tonight, Vinnie bon signor jumps in here.

If you win out right, if you went out right, 645 00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:58.639 maybe we'll send you to see the Chargers and Broncos. What maybe we'll 646 00:45:58.679 --> 00:45:59.920 do that, Okay,
