Just leave your contact info someone on 18 00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:27.079 Twitter or on Twitter on the text sacond morning, guys. I underestimated the 19 00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.519 eclipse. I lived a total one in Mexico thirty plus years ago, didn't 20 00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.920 think much of it. Yesterday in my backyard, I watched it totality immediately. 21 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.959 Thank God for allowing me my children to experience. It. Was unreal. 22 00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:41.760 I think some people even and not to say this guy cynical, but 23 00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:46.519 I know some of us are, and maybe it serves you well in this 24 00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:51.640 modern world. But I was just thinking that moment, all that crab washes 25 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.599 away and you just deep breath, and that's how it was for me. 26 00:01:55.719 --> 00:02:01.439 Man. I wonder if there was also the communal aspect of it, that 27 00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:09.719 for four minutes at least in our area, you had upwards of I don't 28 00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:15.400 know millions of people all doing the exact same thing together. Yeah, I 29 00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.319 just thought about that aspect of it. I don't know if there's some some 30 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:23.159 kind of connected energy or some kind of cool factor in that that, you 31 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:29.280 know, with all of our differences in a world that's separated by politics and 32 00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:34.319 misinformation, that for one, you know, brief moment in time that only 33 00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:37.479 happens in this area once every however many years. I think the next one's 34 00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:40.919 two hundred and ninety seven years away if you live in DFW. That for 35 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:45.680 that one brief moment that we were all able to come together for a common 36 00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:49.680 cause, and it was. It was beautiful and peaceful and good, one 37 00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:53.280 quiet moment. Who COVID vital time out if you will a reset? Yeah? 38 00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:59.240 Yeah, the slate is white clean. We've been rebaptized by the sun 39 00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:01.599 and the moon, the sun god that we looked up in song Raw. 40 00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:06.560 Did it make you guys want to go to North Dakota in twenty forty four 41 00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:09.680 or whatever? I thought about? What was it? Alaska? So there's 42 00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:15.000 Alaska. But they're saying, don't come around here. Well, it's just 43 00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:17.439 tough because the cloud the high risk of clouds always in Alaska. Well, 44 00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:22.680 there's other options too. We might get into some of those later. Another 45 00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:24.360 another great text that I thought. I mean, I don't know if you 46 00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:30.840 read this one, Mikey, We're just gonna pretend like Kevo didn't just say 47 00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:35.520 that he eats peanut butter sandwiches with no jelly. Yeah. I don't like 48 00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.719 jelly. It's too sweet. But you said you like the fluffer Nutter. 49 00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:40.680 I love the fluffer nutter and that's marshmallow, right, yeah, and that's 50 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:44.719 sweet. Yeah, there's way more sweetness than jelly, unless you get sugar 51 00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:46.639 free jelly, which I can tell you is disgusting. So you like a 52 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:52.479 sandwich with peanut butter and marshmallow. Oh yeah, it's number one. It's 53 00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:58.560 your number one. The fluffer Nutter game. My year soda was a year 54 00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:03.759 of fluffer nutter and it's good. Yeah, peanut butter and marshmallows. That 55 00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:10.879 good October treat. Do you melt the marshmallows or they're just all sponge little 56 00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:16.360 sponges of the spread, Oh, the marshmallow spread. When you say once 57 00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:19.160 a year and you mean once a month, no, it's a year. 58 00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:23.639 Okay. So you have a jar that you have a jar that crap in 59 00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:25.639 your fridge and you just use it once a year. What do you do 60 00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.560 with it? You throw it away afterwards because it can't be good after you 61 00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:30.680 you're still in my cabinet. Yeah, now I don't put it in the 62 00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:34.160 fridge. Marshmallow lasts over a year in a cabinet. You like bread, 63 00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:38.839 I don't know, but it's still in there from last time. I don't 64 00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:44.160 know. Those are the questions everyone's asking themselves. Is marshmallows still good after 65 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:48.879 a year and a cabinet? If you nasty bit can knock the fluffer nutter 66 00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:53.800 if you want. I'm just saying, much like the eclipse, let it 67 00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:59.519 take over your body. Minutes a fluffer nutter changes your life. And when 68 00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:01.800 the room get it's darker. As you bite into that fluffer nutder, you 69 00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:05.879 look around and go, this is the world really is bigger than me. 70 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:13.720 Fluff nut ke seems like the kind of guy that would have the peanut butter 71 00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:17.560 and jelly combo in a jar. You know, remember that invention from thee 72 00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:23.160 I just don't like jelly that much. I don't like jelly. I don't 73 00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:30.759 like jello. A little thin smear of grape or of strawberry preserves peanut butter 74 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:34.920 jelly. If you put jelly on bagels too, sometimes you see that horrible 75 00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:39.839 not on bagels. English muffins fine, but not bagel. Has never been 76 00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:43.879 a jelly fan my whole life. I realized you didn't invent the fluff nutter. 77 00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:46.839 It is a popular thing, but I I've never tried it, and 78 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:50.120 I have no worge to do. So JJ, how'd you take in the 79 00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:57.319 eclipse at home? Yeah? Yeah, I was like, huh, alright, 80 00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:02.959 Okay, it was cool because I want a different communities treat outdoor and 81 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:10.519 celestial events differently by different communities. Do you mean the African American if that's 82 00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.000 what you're saying, No, he met walks of hatchees. Yeah, the 83 00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.360 community of the community at the community. Well, I have a very good 84 00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:21.160 friend Donovan, who famously doesn't really care about things that happen outside, doesn't 85 00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:27.439 want to go look at animals or celestial events. I did appreciate the TikTok 86 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.319 jokes afterwards, of like making fun of cheap glasses that were used and all 87 00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:34.639 that stuff having pretty funny. But yeah, I like, I didn't. 88 00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:38.279 Honestly, I couldn't. I was like, oh, it's coming up because 89 00:06:38.279 --> 00:06:41.160 it was getting darker, and so I was like, okay, and then 90 00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:44.439 just watch everything go pitch black and all the street lights come on. You're 91 00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:46.079 like, oh, okay, that's actually pretty cool. You didn't have a 92 00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:50.040 moment of clarity when it went full and a deep breath and a reset of 93 00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:57.720 your life and existence. No, I watch a little on Instagram Live. 94 00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.439 Then I was like, this is cool. What do you watch on it? 95 00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:03.959 You had insta Instagram Live. Yeah, I'm supporting. Did you go 96 00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:09.680 out with your he says nephews, Like, no, I didn't. It 97 00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.480 was crazy because walks out you was actually out of school. Wait, so 98 00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.199 were they? Yeah? They were. I'm assuming they're at home, oh, 99 00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:17.800 because I don't know if they experienced it. I don't know if they 100 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.279 experienced it, but but you think they may have just stayed inside. No, 101 00:07:21.319 --> 00:07:25.759 they probably went out because I was under that anyone who just I think 102 00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:29.759 for families and kids like something like this is cool, like real cool to 103 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:31.519 experience with your family. But you know, I'm just like, okay, 104 00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:35.560 cool. I don't know. I'm not big with it, like with something 105 00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:43.439 like that. White people love the eclipse. Maybe that's watch the eclipse and 106 00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:46.519 go back inside and start up the wire. I literally went back to bed 107 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:50.079 because it was in the middle of my nap. But you well, I 108 00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:53.480 was like laying in bed on my phone about to go to sleep, and 109 00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:56.199 I thought, I was, oh my god, the eclips a couple of 110 00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:59.800 minutes. Why not you almost leapt through almost I was wondering how many people 111 00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:03.120 napped through the eclipse, but he had to work too. Like like I 112 00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:05.279 was like, I went to the store last night and I was like, 113 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:11.839 all, if these people get to go outside, like they're a cashier that 114 00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:15.240 a store, Yeah, they allowed to go outside and take in this ten 115 00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:20.399 minutes. Check this out. So the mail after totality happened, the sun 116 00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.360 started, you know, coming back, and the world became light again. 117 00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:31.519 My mailman letter carrier was just arriving at our house and Malcolm and I are 118 00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:33.960 out in the front yard and he was on the phone and he and he 119 00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:37.840 stopped to have a conversation. He's a great dude, so we kind of 120 00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:41.879 talking about it a little bit, and he told me that the directive was 121 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.440 given by his bosses. Hey, when the eclipse happens, we want you 122 00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:52.480 guys to keep working, don't stop and you know, don't stop your route, 123 00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:56.120 just to stare at the sun for ten minutes. And he said, 124 00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:58.600 yeah, like any of us were going to do that. No, he 125 00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:01.919 goes, when that thing happened, I was standing out on somebody's front yard. 126 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.799 He had his glasses and everything. Yeah, it was like, good 127 00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:09.240 for you, dude, and we kind of connected on that. It was 128 00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.000 kind of you know, it was dude, everybody that I've talked to and 129 00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:18.279 all everything that I've heard, all the posts that I've seen, it was 130 00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:22.720 a really unique experience. I just don't know how else to describe it. 131 00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.200 And probably people are I bet there are cynical people listening to us right now, 132 00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:31.159 going you guys shut up about the stupid eclipse. Yeah, probably probably, 133 00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:35.399 but they don't have love in their hearts like we do. I'll never 134 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.200 forget it. And there was almost no cars that were going by, including 135 00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:43.600 over the arts. But I did see mail or mailman. I saw Amazon 136 00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:48.440 truck, I saw some other Yeah, like three delivery vehicles were staying on 137 00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:52.080 the move, and I did see one, yeah truck Amazon guy. I 138 00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.279 don't know. It wasn't during totality. Yeah, he got out and delivered 139 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:58.919 something and ran back in his truck and kept moving. When Amazon driver Joe 140 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:01.200 big A right, like how the lights it was at during the eclipse, 141 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.480 and so those of course I like come on his color at night on movement. 142 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.799 It was, Yeah, that's pretty interesting to see like like one o'clock 143 00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.120 in the afternoon it's it's black. Oh my god. Yes, yeah, 144 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:16.120 but that's so weird. That they were told, hey, you have a 145 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.000 job to do, keep keep moving. And I had the glasses. I 146 00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:22.000 was going to offer him to the male guy if he came by, like 147 00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.039 to take a look. Enjoyed this for one second, but that nerd ass 148 00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:30.519 boss said, hey, you stay on the move, especially at Amazon and 149 00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.600 the track. You're pretty good there. Get to your phil I noticed that 150 00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:39.919 you thtopped for three minutes, no motion whatsoever. You're off and fired. 151 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:46.759 Yeah, maybe you no longer work at Amazon. It's mind blowing. I 152 00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:50.240 have more like a little news round up of some things that had happened. 153 00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:56.320 Both of the presidents definitely took some shots at each other. It was pretty 154 00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.360 good. During the eclipse. Oh yeah, we had some some barbing back 155 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:05.440 and forth. We get some barbin um. And the eye thing is a 156 00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.679 big deal right now. And if you're experiencing a little blurred vision, maybe 157 00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:13.000 some dark spots, I'll tell you what you need to do at seven thirty 158 00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:18.080 five. Or if you're absolutely screwed, that's a seven thirty five. Do 159 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:22.600 you ice hurd bikey? Uh no. My neck hurts a little bit and 160 00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:26.759 neck pain is also a possibility. But I would be the number one target. 161 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:28.919 I think. Someone said, my granddaughter words at Cheddars, and the 162 00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:31.879 eclipse happened. They all went outside, met the Chick fil A employees next 163 00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.679 door. They all watched the eclipse together, all right, So yeah, 164 00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.440 look at that Cheddars and Chick fil A coming together. Yeah, two great 165 00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:43.279 tastes I mean pushed into one, hated rivals. Yeah. Another guy said, 166 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.720 I was in a Chick fil A. Everyone left and I emptied out 167 00:11:46.759 --> 00:11:52.440 both registers. No, no pushback, what's no pushback? It just happened 168 00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:56.039 to stole a bag. A chicken sandwich is spicy. Hmmm. We do 169 00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:01.440 have crimes committed during the eclipse. We do. It's seven. Come on, 170 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.080 boy, what about your work in the grill at Chick fil A or 171 00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:09.720 or what do you do? You know, like they couldn't go out. 172 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:13.080 We don't realize how lucky we are that this was in our lap, in 173 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:18.519 our path. That's another thing, okay, like to be a cynical, 174 00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:22.480 to be cynical or jaded about it, like, okay, well this could 175 00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.600 have been Oklahoma cities. No, this was ours. It was for us. 176 00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:28.600 Don't take it for granted. That's why we get bad weather, That's 177 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:33.759 why we get bad things. That happened during some events Eye Storm yesterday, 178 00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:37.399 I ended up working out the clouds cleared out in most places. There are 179 00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:41.080 still a lot of places who didn't see it due because they were getting screwed. 180 00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:46.440 I'll tell you this real quick. I thought that the the intermittent cloud 181 00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:52.200 coverage kind of added to the drama of it all, is this gonna happen 182 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:56.919 or not? Like if we had had perfectly blue skies, all right, 183 00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:00.720 and you're just staring at this one thing and it's happening and it's clear and 184 00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:05.759 it's perfect. I kind of equate it to when you open up your favorite 185 00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:11.240 adult video site and you just go right into the hardcore. I don't know. 186 00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:15.080 I think that I think that were guys that like a little uh, 187 00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:18.559 you know, I want you to reveal a little under booth and then tease 188 00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.240 me and push it back down, you know. Then I want to see 189 00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:26.960 the drop, yeah, and then the full tea drop. It was kind 190 00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:30.159 of like a tease and you had to kind of work for it, and 191 00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:35.360 it added to the drama of it. I don't know magical, and I 192 00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:48.240 have no magic. It's not for sports. At seven let's go and now 193 00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:56.919 sports, we have a big viewing night tonight. We have MAVs at six. 194 00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:01.279 You'll get your w FAA of that coverage of that if you like, 195 00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:03.799 or you can hear it here on ninety seven to one the Freak pregame at 196 00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:07.440 five thirty. I'm ready MAVs, Hornets at six, Rangers, A's at 197 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:11.559 seven, Stars, Sabers at seven. We got a three for tonight, 198 00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:16.759 full slate, a triple header. I watched zero, well, I say 199 00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:20.759 zero. I would paid no attention to any basketball last night. The college 200 00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:24.600 basketball game, the championship, no bit. I flipped it over. I 201 00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:28.159 was surprised that it wasn't on CBS. It was on like TBS and TNT 202 00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:31.720 and through TV. But they wiped the NBA out on that night. So 203 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.039 you know, the college basketball can get their shine. That's nice of them. 204 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.519 I do know that Connecticut won, and I do know that the men 205 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:41.679 and women's team are the first to ever go back to back as national championships. 206 00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:46.879 Yukon H So that's the only school that has a chance to win every 207 00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:52.480 year, Yukon. I just realized I didn't see one shining moment for the 208 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:56.519 first time in a long time. I usually like one shining moment the Little 209 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:03.440 Guys I w I never I always thought the song was just so corny. 210 00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:07.279 Really, I mean, yes, it's course same thing. You can enjoy 211 00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:11.039 things. This night's corny. No, No, I think I get topped 212 00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:16.720 skin rid of a song called one Curse of Nolan one time about the Rangers. 213 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:22.279 Well, one Curse of Nolan will destroy this whole team. One Curse 214 00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.440 of Nolan will poop on our dreams? Is that what I miss is me? 215 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.519 And again my old buddy Donovan, who sang one Ailing Norman. It's 216 00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:39.240 a catchy song. I guess I don't know one Ailing Norman. Here's all 217 00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:46.960 these highlights of Cod and Mary his wife, Mary grips the sigh and nd 218 00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:54.360 Jesus so dark he laughed, he cracked up when we played it. Anyway, 219 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.600 go Huskies, Yeah, I guess I would over three next year. 220 00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:03.080 A bit of the Rangers I watched was they got five runs in the first 221 00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:07.039 innings. That should be enough. Yeah, turn it off. Wasn't enough. 222 00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:15.919 Bad things then happened. Heeney gave up a BUTTL load. It was 223 00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:18.879 just rough. So they end up using they tie the series at the Astros, 224 00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:23.039 so we don't get the silver boot. But it didn't lose it either. 225 00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.879 We get a chance at redemption on Friday as we begin a three game 226 00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.399 set with them on the road in Houston, where we will have an undeniable 227 00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:34.039 champion of the first seven games of the year, and if we get the 228 00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:37.000 boot, we can bring it home. We get Oakland. You are what's 229 00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:40.480 going on with Oakland? This is insane to me. They're moving their ballpark 230 00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:44.720 this year. This is happening to Sacramento. They're not moving their ballpark. 231 00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:47.600 Well no, I'm sorry, Yeah, a good point. They're their team. 232 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:52.480 That would be weird. We're moving the whole thing four billion dollars. 233 00:16:52.960 --> 00:17:00.279 That's the reason they're leaving is because they hate their ballpark so much. They're 234 00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:04.720 moving to Sacramento to a minor league ballpark that holds ten thousand people. I 235 00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:10.039 kind of love this. And they're doing it from twenty five until twenty eight. 236 00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:14.000 I think because the Vegas move's not happening or is not ready to go. 237 00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:18.680 They're going to play in a ten thousand seat park for three years in 238 00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.680 Sacramento. Dude, and there one of our division rivals. Well, they're 239 00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:26.480 one of the teams in our division. You're like, God, I gotta 240 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:30.920 go to that minor league park and play, but they hate it. There's 241 00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:34.240 the amenities would be trash compared to what you're used to. Of course, 242 00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:37.720 now, if i'm the other teams in baseball, I'm like, if they're 243 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:41.920 not gonna be serious, let's just get rid of them. Like they're they're 244 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:47.160 trying to lose games too. I mean, it does not look like they're 245 00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:52.240 trying to win. It's really ridiculous that that's happening. So do we know 246 00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.319 where they're building that park in Vegas? Is that going to be Strip Boy 247 00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:57.200 too? They fully know that they're going to Vegas. I don't think it's 248 00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:03.160 done. Oh really yeah, that's my understanding without reading a deep article on 249 00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:07.400 it or anything. What is the point I Jeff passed on ESPN talking about 250 00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:10.160 the other day and he was like, so that they're going to the Sacramento 251 00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:11.519 He's almost like shaking his head like that. It is the point of them 252 00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:15.440 going to Sacramento. Their fans don't want them there. They don't go to 253 00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.759 the games. Now, they're like three thousand people go to their games, 254 00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.359 and they've already like announced that they're leaving officially or no, yes, they 255 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:26.519 signed a deal to go to Sacramento next year. Okay, but Vegas. 256 00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:29.839 So but Vegas. The Vegas deal I don't think is done. I think 257 00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:30.960 it's all just talked about. I don't think that's done. So they're just 258 00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:34.200 lame ducks and a team that doesn't care anyway and maybe trying to lose. 259 00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:38.759 So weird. Yeah, that's very odd. It's very strange. Uh I 260 00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:41.400 see, maybe it's for a later date. But I was just thinking, 261 00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:44.400 I mean, okay, fine, we're not going to get the a's here, 262 00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:49.039 but we just moved into what the fourth spot for the Metroplex, Like, 263 00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:53.519 I think we're the fourth biggest market now. I mean New York has 264 00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:57.839 two, LA has two. Okay, Eric Johnson, let's go, and 265 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:03.400 Chicago has two. Let's go. I mean, it's not insane. Are 266 00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:07.119 you creating audio clickbait Mikey he's trying to swing the election. Are you going 267 00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:11.640 to bring the chiefs in town to well? No, okay, laugh about 268 00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:18.240 it, but why it's not insane that the Metroplex would have a second baseball 269 00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:22.119 team. I don't know about a second football team. That seems like a 270 00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:29.400 bit much, but well probably yeah, Houston counts as that for us Chicago 271 00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:33.799 doesn't have that other team in there. New York. Houston's five hours away, 272 00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:37.880 I know, but it's still a part of our Like the areas have 273 00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:44.000 ten teams within five hours. Yeah, I know, I'm saying right now 274 00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:45.839 to talk about and yeah, whenever Eric Johnson talks about it's like, yeah, 275 00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:49.079 sure, guy, but the three in front of us all have two. 276 00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:53.359 And it's just crazy to think it's not crazy to think it shouldn't be. 277 00:19:55.799 --> 00:19:57.799 So I don't know that if the A's in Vegas is not a done 278 00:19:57.839 --> 00:20:00.440 deal, and I don't think that it's even been discussed. But yes, 279 00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:06.599 a brand new, badass future dome and Frisco before Worth get on it, 280 00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:10.680 and a second baseball team Frisco get on it. If there's no way Fort 281 00:20:10.680 --> 00:20:14.160 Worth would embrace any team other than the Rangers, you'd have to go to 282 00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:18.519 Frisco. Dallas could have done it. Dallas could have done it. How 283 00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:27.599 far is Arlington actively talking about building a new ballpark in downtown forty Frisco's Frisco 284 00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:32.039 Frisco we know is big enough, but to the masses, I don't know. 285 00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:37.200 Probably it is, but bigger than like Kansas City. And you're right 286 00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:41.160 though, it's not crazy to talk about it's not right, but but the 287 00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:45.440 Rangers are the eight one sevens team predicted No way A's are predicted to open 288 00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:48.839 up uh at the side of the Tropicana on Las Vegas Strip, and it's 289 00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:52.240 not predicted of until twenty twenty eight. In fact, last weekend was the 290 00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:57.400 last weekend at the Tropicana. So the hotel so a dump I've not stay 291 00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:04.240 troupe. There's some dumpers down there. I have one what fifteen second clip 292 00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:07.720 I have to play for you today. All right?

Oh yeah, this is 295 00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:30.440 amazing. I can reach though straights, con it mostan bounce that it's fine. 296 00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:33.920 Could you hear what you think? He said? A lot of fs? 297 00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:38.079 Yeah, and the last one, No, it was a double of 298 00:21:38.119 --> 00:21:42.599 the worst. It was a C word. Are you serious? Was it 299 00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:48.559 f C? Yes? Hard FC? Was that? The announcer going, 300 00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:07.079 I can reach the straights, con it most wank bounce.
