Now, let's bring on Jack Harris at the Times and the last time Jack
was on Jonas, I pointed out that I was pretty upset with him because
he had not come on enough. And he's really good, and we want
him on the show. So now he has consented to come back on,
and Jack, thank you for doing that today. My great pleasure. But
all right, Jack, I want to start with this. David Massey's cooking
around the name Nico Horner of the Cubs. Are you hearing anything? What's
going on with this trade deadline coming up? I think there's two big dynamics
to look at for the deadline, which is, one, can the Dodgers
get an impact picture. I think that's the thing that is probably most pressingly
needed for this roster when you look at the injury concerns they have on the
pitching staff, when you look at the fact that you know they've too often
in the past couple of postseasons and I've had enough of those frontline pitchers when
they've gotten into the playoffs, and I think if there's anything they could add
in a perfect world, that would be it. The problem there is that
this is not a great market for impact pitchers. You know, Trek Scoubel
of the Tigers probably is not going to get traded. Garrett Crochet of the
White Sox could get traded, and if somebody the Dodgers have a lot of
interest in. But He's also a guy that two years removed from a Tommy
john Is already has almost doubled his previous career high for innings and might not
be able to make regular starts for the rest of the season or make regular
starts in the postseason. So he doesn't quite fit that need. And then
beyond them, there's not like a clear, you know, Ace caliber kind
of pitcher. There's guys like Jack Clarity, you say, Kukuchi, maybe
Nathan Avaldi if the Texas Rangers decide to sell in the next week. But
it's an imperfect market for what the Dodgers need on the pitching staff. And
while I'm sure they're going to add somebody, I don't know if it's going
to be somebody that you look at as a real, you know, number
one or number two guy to be starting playoff games. Because of that,
I think it makes the need to try to reinforce the lineup and bolster some
of the positions at the bottom in the lineup all the more important. You
can try to do that in big ways. You know, Luis Robert Junior
is out there. That's the guy the Dodgers that have interest in. Randy
Rose Arena could be moved from the Tampa Bay Rays. It's another guy the
Dodgers have discussed. Or you could look at more piecemeal moves. You know,
Miko Horner is you know the Cubs, it's a little unclear what direction
they're going to go. A guy like that could get moved. You could
look at somebody like maybe a Tommy fam or a Jesse Winker, or you
know, there's going to be a lot of different Mark Hanna, a lot
of different, more affordable options out there that can help round out the lineup,
give you a few more reliable bats at the bottom of the order,
and ensure that even if the pitching isn't an imperfect place going into October,
the lineup won't be as susceptible to some of the offensive drop offs they've had
when in their early eliminations the past few octobers. So in order to acquire
you know, some of these players are either the higher profile players or some
of the other pieces, who would they be willing who would the Dodgers be
willing to part with in order to make that happen. You know, that's
the other part of this right now, The Dodgers pitching depth in terms of
prospects is not as rich as it usually is because they have so many young
guys that are hurt, and then so many other young guys, like you
look at their location right now, that are relying on a lot of young
pitchers, and you probably don't want to give those guys up unless you're bringing
in a direct replacement on the pitching staff of a more veteran, established kind
of guy. On the of the position player group that the Dodgers have in
the miners, they have two really highly coveted players. Jose de Paula,
who is a single a outfielder that you know, a couple of scouts who
have seen him have compared him to, you know, kind of a yorn
On Alvarez type of really big bat who could be a really be an impact
hitter in the majors in the future. And then there's dault In rushing their
first round draft pick from a couple of years ago, a Louisville who has
a big bat is as much closer to getting to the big leagues, probably
as soon as next year, and might be you know, has a really
at least high flour in terms of this is a guy A lot of people
around the game think is going to be a good big league hitter. I
think Rushing is the interesting name because when you look at the way that the
Dodgers' roster is set up in the long term, they have Will Smith locked
up behind home plate, they have Freddie Freeman locked up at first base.
They have shohe Otani at DH somebody liked and Rushing there's not really a clear
path that, even if he does continue to develop as he has and becomes
an impact bat, there's not a clear path into where he fits onto the
roster. So for a team like the Dodgers, it comes down to,
Okay, do we think that right now is the best time to move him
his value is pretty high at the moment, or do you try to hold
onto him and wait to get a little further down the road and hope maybe
a better trade opportunity comes up where you could deal him. The risk with
that is that you run into a situation like they have with Diego Kartaya,
Who's a guy a lot of Dodger fans who have followed the farm system,
we'll remember he was one of the top prospects in baseball a couple of years
ago, but his development has slowed down, he hasn't hit as well the
higher he's gone up on the minor league ladder, he has some back injuries,
and suddenly he's not as pantalizing a prospect for other teams right now.
Like, that's somebody that I think the Dodgers are going to be open to
movie, But he's not going to get them as much as he might have
a couple of years ago when his value was higher. So that's the delicate
game that the front office is going to have to play when they look at
an imperfect trade market, when they look at the handful of high end prospects
that they do have, and have to decide, Okay, are we going
to be able to make moves at this deadline that really improve our chances to
win a World Series this year? Or are we better making smaller moves and
holding on to some of our other guys and hopes that we can either bring
them along and incorporate them into the big league roster at some point or flip
them for maybe an even better player and a trade further down the line this
winner or beyond. Yeah, But did Andrew Freeman say we're taking a big
swing. We're not playing on the margins, we're going to trade for an
impact player. Well, you know that's what he says, right. I
think obviously every year, you know, this is the refrain from the team.
If they're always going to look at big players. They're never going to
shut themselves off from going after you know, the top available names on a
trade market, because they're the Dodgers, because they have the money to make
almost any deal happen, and because they do have the prospects, like their
prospect pool compared to most other teams around baseball like, they'll be able to
get almost any deal they want to done if they're willing to move you know,
their best minor league players. So they're definitely going to look at those
options. I think they definitely feel the need to try to do something bigger,
to try to add a little bit more either depth and reliability to the
lineup, or some more star power and firepower to the starting rotation, or
maybe shore up the bullpen a little bit, especially with how Evan Phillips has
struggled the last couple of weeks. So they're going to look at impact moves.
But there's not a lot of years where the Dodgers going to be an
impact move, could have made a bigger splash, and then looked at the
trade market, you know. I think of like the Wan Soto year when
they could have gone in on him and decided, you know what, we're
okay, we're not going to make a big move there, and then they
get bounced in the first round. So they've done it both ways in the
past. They're always looking to be aggressive, but they also have a pretty
high bar for what they consider fair value and for when they're willing to move
with the kind of prospects that they feel are you know, of a different
caliber. Right, there's there's a they look at it as like opportunity costs,
and they don't want to sell low on one of their top players because
they feel rushed or panicked by the deadline and by the need to try to
make a short term ad when maybe, in their view, preserving some of
their long term value and options are better. That's always kind of the tricky
dance that this team has to navigate and one that I think for fans always
can become a little frustrating because you know, they haven't won many world They
only have the one World Series in the last ten years, Like this feels
like a window these next couple of years to Mac to my show, Hey
and Freddie and Muki and the core that they have, and if there was
a time where I think you go a little bit more all in and you're
you're a little less cautious with the deals you make in the deadline, like
this is the kind of year to do it. We'll see though, if
they actually get that far, and if any of the negotiations and players they're
trying to line up on, you know, comes together in a way they
still think is fair value. So Jack, let's just play worst case scenario
and let's you know, this would probably, as you pointed out, would
probably piss some Dodger fans off. Let's say they don't do anything. Is
this team with all the players returning from the al good enough to win a
World Series? I think it's possible. A big piece of that is does
Yoshinobu Yamamoto come back and pitch like he did earlier this year. Now,
to me, that's hardly a guarantee. It's probably more likely that he either
doesn't come back or comes back in some sort of in a state because of
the shoulder entry he's had because he's probably only going to get three or four
or maybe five starts before the beginning of the playoffs because he was even on
a normal pitching schedule to begin with. So that's one variable. You know,
just Tyler Glass now not only stay healthy the rest of the way,
but can the team manage his innings and his workload. You know, he's
also approaching his career high innings total. I think the team's going to try
to be careful with how much they use him down the stretch. So can
he thread that needle between staying healthy but also remaining and affected. Cy Young
caliber kind of pitchers, and Gavin Soone built off the first half of the
season he did and be a real kind of like October caliber guy for you
when you get to the playoffs, and then you know, with the lineup
in the bottom of the lineup be better. So there's a lot of things
that if they go right. I think the group that they do have with
maybe even some just minor tweets at the deadline, could be good enough to
win. But you're banking on a lot of injury health, a lot of
injury luck, a lot of improved performances from some of the guys at the
bottom of your roster. And again, that's the calculation that the team's going
to have to make here is you know, they're in a good spot in
the standings right now, when when they've played well, they've been one of
the best teams in baseball. But then when they haven't, you know,
they go through stretches like they did before the All Star Breaker where they were
basically a five hundred team for two months of the season. Here, So
that's kind of the challenge of this is, yes, they probably could win
a World Series if enough things go right with the current group, but there's
a danger and you know, banking on that and having more things go wrong
between now and October and then carrying a flawed roster into the playoffs. Jack,
you wrote a piece, and it makes perfect sense. Before the season,
Dodgers thought, well, Clayton Kershaw will come back and that'll be a
luxury. Now it's a necessity, and it's not like he was tearing it
up in the minors. Yeah, I mean, you know, his situation
I think speaks to like the state of the team right where suddenly he is
not just a bonus piece, right, You're not just trying to find a
way to work Clayton Kershaw onto the rotation. They really need him in the
rotation at a bare minimum to help take down starts and eat some innings and
just get the pitching staff as a whole to October. But especially if they
don't make a big impact move between now and the playoffs, or if they
don't get some of that injury luck we're talking about between now and the playoffs,
I think it's very possible that Clayton Kershaw is either starting games or pitching
important innings for this team in the postseason. And it makes his form and
his recovery from the surgery and the way that he's looked during his rehab stint
like it made it really important. I think at times during his recovery he
flashed the kind of stuff that make you think, Okay, this is still
a guy that can be an impact pitcher. You know, a guy who
even when he was battling his shoulder issues last year, had a sub three
er and was an all star pitcher. But at the same or on the
other side of the point, you know, you look at his I was
at his last rehab start exes last week. The first three innings were really
good. The fastball was up to ninety two. He was playing the slider
off it really well. The curve ball is still good. He was mixing
in a splitter. But then he got to the fourth inning, which is
the deepest he pitched all year, and suddenly the fastball was down to like
eighty seven eighty eight. He gave up a long home run on a fastball
over the plate, and it reminded you that, yeah, for as much
as this guy can work around some of the physical limitations and the diminished stuff
that he has, now, this is also the guy who got rocked for
six runs in the first inning of the playoffs last year, because his stuff
isn't where it used to be and because he's not quite the pitcher he used
to be. So I think in the short term it's going to be a
benefit for them getting him back, just to again help litify the rotation and
take down some starts with everybody else's missing. But it will be interesting to
see how well he pitches over these next couple months, and if the team
finds itself in a position where they're relying on him again to pitching four innings
at October, which when you go back to the offseason when he resigned with
the club. You know, that did not seem like it was going to
be a preaty or a very likely possibility this year. But it's definitely back
on the table now, all right, Jack Love when you come on man,
thanks for the info today. Yeah, you bet all right, Jack
Harris at the Times. See he's good, Joe, good stuff, He's
really good. He's got it all covered. He's got the miners covered,
he's got you know, everything going on. You know, from an injury
standpoint, what they're thinking. I liked it. Good stuff. Hey,
is that a drone up there? Better not be. Jonas Knox is in
Today for Rodney and Today is California Community College's Spotlight features Burbank native and star
of the popular TV crime drama n CIS Mark Harmon Bride to his career in
Hollywood. Harrima a start quarterback at Pierce College, where he was named the
national Junior College All American. He partlaid that and there were two year careers
the starting quarterback at UCLA, where he led the Bruins to a victory over
the defending national champion Nebraska Cornhuskers in his first start. Harmon was inducted into
the Pierce College Hall of Fame in twenty ten, and in an interview,
he said that was a very important time in my life. There were no
guarantees. Not a lot of people said I was making a smart choice.
Oftentimes it's the process instead of the end result that you value most. Start
your future at a California community college. Financillete is available to help with tuition,
books, and sometimes even the rent. Time to take the next big
step. Classes can phill quickly enrolled today and I can go to college dot
com early. What Pierce College? Hey, you know about Peers? Listen,
I am a product of community college. Granted it was only six months,
but I counted Phoenix Junior College, home of the Fighting Bears. My
brother, my brother played at Pierce College. My other brother played at More
Park. Okay, yeah, I played football. So what while you thumb
your nose at community college? No not, I'm saying that, you know,
brings back fond memories. Saw a lot of games at Peers and at
Moore Park. Tell you what, it's a great education. It really,
I'm not exaggerating. It's a great education. Yeah, and it's affordable and
it gets you started, you go to a community college and graduate, you
can pretty much write your ticket to whatever. For your university you want to
transfer to, you can. I mean, I don't know if it's that
easy, but well I'm saying it's a lot easier than getting in your freshman
year. You come out of a jac you got a good chance to transfer
into a school you want to go to, and there is school, and
you are like the difference between what you are as eight as an eighteen year
old and what you are as a twenty year old, yeah, like night
and day, like for that. Two years out of high school completely changes
things. So you're a little bit more of a grown up to adapt to
the college lifestyle if you've had that cup of coffee at a community college.
See, I thought you were going to say you're far more of a derelict
after two years. Yeah, but I'm not trying to make this about me.
Oh okay, okay, I mean, because what do I know.
I mean, at twenty years old, I think I was still working to
toys r US right, right, And what's wrong with that? It's a
lot of things. Nothing's wrong with it, right, selling balls and jacks
and yo yo's now did you dress up as the giraffe to us like you
dress as the rat chuck cheese. Listen, that doesn't have to be like
that. Okay, No, there was nobody to dress like a giraffe.
Okay, clearly wasn't tall enough to fit the description. Okay, so that
wasn't the case. But I was a maintenance guy, and I gotta tell
you dirty or bathroom by far and away, the women's restroom not even close.
I just saw a lot of things in there that kind of uh,
weren't the weren't the greatest in the world. They stay with you. What
you're seeing. You can't unsee him. Yeah, a lot of sense,
a lot of aromas. Okay, we don't think. Well, I'm just
saying, like the baby changing, okay, pull around thing. It just
there's you know, it was rough. But listen, somebody had to do
it, right. I mean I cleaned urinals during breaks or is that just
no? The boys club I used to clean the urinals, not even I'm
out on this. What it's true at the Agnes Miller Boys Club at a
summer job. And you're going like, I love how the boys club is
named after Agnes Miller too, that's interesting. I know right across the street
from Robert D. Simpson School. Everybody knew it, which wasn't all girls
school? I'm sure? Right? Yeah? Right, Nineteenth Avenue and Missouri
the address Miller Boy's Club. That's where I became the Arizona Boys Club Boy
of the Year. What right? But the way they get you, like
like a plaque urinal cake. You got it up on the wall. All
right, listen, we have to talk about this drone story. Yeah right,
seriously, get it together, everybody. I mean, you were very
upset when you heard about Choko Miata. Yeah, okay, Now we have
another Olympic story. With the Olympics starting, we have to be your Olympic
show of note. Yeah right, Canada's had two Olympic staff members home.
You know why why what do you think? I mean? If it's involving
a drone, maybe they flew it under somebody's dress to get a peek.
There's that. Or they could have been out of Moulson Canadian Lager beer and
they wanted to go home and bring it back. Which one do you think?
It was? Probably the Mulson Canadian Lager beer. No, it was
the drone. What they did is they flew a drone over New England's soccer
practice and we're spying on them. And then when it was revealed that they
had done that, they got sent home over New England soccer practice. New
Zealand, Oh you said, New England, see you know what you did
there? Because you know, I thought spying and you just autumn tied in
New England, right, patriots? That's true. I mean, so what
are they supposed to do, like not trying, you know, find an
edge, Like like I think we're way too judgmental on people that are trying
to find a way to be successful. Like I would argue they put a
lot of time and effort into trying to fly this drone over to try and
get a little bit of an advantage. Maybe don't get rid of them completely,
maybe work with it. It's like in Vegas when they find somebody that's,
you know, a card counter or somebody that's cheating the casinos. They
don't just arrest them. They say, you know, what would you like
a job? How you doing it right? We'll put you up there.
You can look on everybody and you can spot who's trying to, you know,
pull Shenanigan's there at a blackjack table, Like, why not take that
approach? Why throw them out completely? To me, you're wasting an opportunity
to try and get better yourself. So you're saying they should become part of
security surveillance US. Well, unfortunately that's not the case. As I read
this further. Uh, the two Olympic staff members sent home prior to leaving,
they had a shot and a sig. Was Choko Miata? Did they
really? That's that's what I say. Only a shot in a cigarette.
Yeah, that so that that's a punishable offense, a shot and a cigarette.
Well for Choko Miata it was by the way, who's the athlete that
you were shocked most to find out that they smoked? Oh that's good.
I don't know. I don't know. Well, here's the thing, Rodney
will tell you. They used to smoke all the time in NFL locker rooms.
I know, in in hockey in the ECHL, the Bakersfield Condors.
Oh yeah, I love the EHL. Right now they're in the AHL.
But back in the day, these guys would skate off between periods at light
one up. Yeah, be in the locker room. Remember the picture of
is it Lenn Dawson who was sitting in the locker room as a member of
the Chief Lenny Dawson, Yeah, I just got a lung dart hang out,
just not a care in the world, right, like I've earned this,
that's right. What are you gonna do about it? Exactly? I
know it's different because he was a coach. I just does an NFL films
of John Matten just hacking up a long dark yelling, got an official there
you ble ble bleeping and he takes a puff and then yells at him again.
And nowadays Mike McDaniel's vaping, right, It was so much cooler when
Madden was smoking a cig like there was just something about that. But what
about Jim Leland Jim Lean, Yeah, he was like Chimney, yeah yeah,
all right, Well a guy that's lit him up his entire life,
joins us. Now it's time to welcome on Victor Brec. Tell you what
he smoked. Some of that weed, Jesus Fred, Oh, now we
that weed. That weed, the weed. He's had some of the weed,
the Mary Jane, the hippie lettuce, that's right. And he's also
got the high coup of two the Mary Jane bit your light and went up
over there. I haven't. I haven't smoked pot in a long time.
I have. I have smoked in the past, of course, but I've
been very, very clean, and for the last few decades, I really
haven't lit up since the Golden Triangle. I missed the Golden Triangle north of
chung My, Thailand, Burma Camboda area. That was the last time.
So it's been a while. How was that? People believe I every day
I'm talking, but I'm not. This is my natural state. Well,
some people call you the space Cowboy, and I'm proud of it. Well,
he says, the River Sin is clean for the upcoming Paris Olympics,
despite France spending one point five billion dollars to clean it up. Fred Rogan,
well, if they spent that money, it should be clean, right.
Yes. In for Rodney, he's a clean radio machine. A Jonas
knocks, light me up, Poppy, there you go. His river of
love is overflowing with baby. Oh Kevin, come on now, did you
see, by the way last month the mayor of Paris said, you know
what, that river is so clean, I'm gonna swim in it on like
May thirty first. So a bunch of people on Twitter are like, on
May thirty, if let's all go and just yeah, you know, all
up in that river. Two weeks later, the pay of Paris says,
you know what, I'm not gonna do it on the thirty first, I'll
do it at a future date, right right, Probably smarter than their part.
Absolutely, So people are just dropping their pants and just going right there.
Well apparently that's the claim. Is they do that anyway? Yeah,
in France, you're free. You should have no inhibitions. Beava la Fronts.
Yeah, he is our bridge over troubled water. Ronnie Fossio, he's
clean, no more smoking, only edibles. Yeah yeah, yeah, well
you guys touched upart of it earlier. The turbulence of de Sean Foster addressing
the Big Ten media Day had a rough moment at the mic, Hi,
guys doing I'm happy to be here, glad to be a part of this
great conference. Finally putting two great emblems together, UCLA and the Big Ten.
Where a school that's won what one hundred and twenty three championships? So
this fits us being right in this conference football wise, which is excited.
You know, I'm sure, you guys don't know too much about uc LA
but our football program. But we're in LA, it's us in usc We
I'm just basically excited. Really, that's it. Then questions, Yeah,
okay, the same question. What was that? So Forster froze in its
opening statement, I say, give to Sean a break. I'm with you.
I have frozen in the moment, Fred Jonas, you guys haven't lost
your train of thought? What was I just thinking? I just froze in
the moment? Oh man, all right, we'll have Vic more, all
right, Jonas Natson Today for Rodney, Vic was talking about having a moment
where he kind of lost his train of thought, and Vic, can you
please elaborate on that? Absolutely, Fred, I have total empathy for Deshaun
Foster at the Big Ten media day today because it happened to me, and
I'm sure it's happened to a lot of people, you know, who speak
publicly, you know, for a living or or on stage. So I'm
eighteen years old and I lost it. In Jamaica, Queens, I was
performing at the Saint John's Happy Hour on a late Friday afternoon. I was
developing a comedy act at the time. So I'm doing exotic takes on the
New York Knickerbockers, especially Willis Reid. I'm ad libbing when suddenly I went
down a verbal rabbit hole. I lost my flow for a few seconds,
and suddenly, you know, the crowd's getting pretty pretty ripped. Fruits are
being thrown on the stage, Tomatoes hurled at my head. Suddenly a salad
before my eyes. I'm freaking out. I scamper off stage. Total disaster.
Freaked me out. But you got to get back on the horse.
I rewrote my stuff, did lots of reps in front of them. Were
then I did open mics at Catch a Rising Star in Manhattan, down in
New York. Nothing great, but better than my Saint John's fiasco. Big
your eight your eight ten years old. Deshaun Foster's the head football coach at
u c l A. Yes, what happens, Fred, Why do we
have to put an age on brain fart? Exactly exactly, Jane Knox,
it happens, Fred. I mean, it was a good run through for
the shown because obviously, you know he's going to get more reps. He's
going to do, you know, hundreds of press conferences and He's going to
get better and better. I think the problem is you and I are looking
at it as flawed broadcasters, and admittedly so Fred's looking at it looking at
it from a broadcaster with a perfect record. Perfection is all about Fred Rogan
and his career. I don't he he can't relate like we can relate.
No, I I'm not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. Mm hm,
Fred, there wasn't a time in a high an Arizona high school stage
or you were doing a pep rally or why would I be doing a pep
rally? Well? Why not? What do you think of the cheerleader a
yell leader? I used to do pep rallies in Ota, New Mexico.
Fred doesn't striking me as the pep rally type. What do you mean you
did pep rallies in Artesia, Mexico. I go to high schools on a
Friday. They would ask me to come and address the uh the high school.
Why why would they ask you to pump it up? Well? What
are you walking down the street and going I'm available? Ask me? Why
why did they ask you to come and pump up the teams? Because that
that's what I That's what I did when I was a local sports a sportscaster,
a small market. Fred, we're in a big market high school football.
Again. Fred's a big market guy, mister perfect. He can't relate.
He doesn't know what the struggles are like in a smaller market. Well,
now I get it. I thought you were just walking down the street.
I didn't know you were working. Yeah I was. I was.
I was humbly invited to go to the high school gyms around Southeastern New Mexico
and you know, pump up the high schools before the big game. Yeah,
Fred, I loved it. Fred Fred Vick was standing outside a car
dealership spinning signs the team up he was talking about. Yeah, I'm in
Hobbes, New Mexico. Say you know what, you have five minutes left
to come in and just, uh you know, roll out some some tributes
to the high school football team. No, Fred Vig, what did you
charge for an appearance like that? Oh? Totally totally free? Are you
kidding me? Always free, dude. It was fun, high energy high
school football, Southeastern New Mexico. Are you kidding me? What would you
wear? I was? I was more jeans, relaxed, maybe maybe the
high school shirt, right, you know, it was very cool time.
How long would you do it for? Maybe like a twenty minute show.
Sure, I'll tell you this putting on his show. Can we please give
it up for Gavin Lucks? LuxI is so weak? Heiliente hat. He's

That's how you win events. That's how you win will service vic I got
to tell you something. You know, we talked earlier about the fact that
TNT had lost the NBA rights. The NBA put out a message or a
statement saying it goes to Amazon. Can I just read you something? Sure?
TNT Their response, we have matched the Amazon offer as we have a
contractual right to do, and do not believe the NBA can reject it,
and doing so, they are rejecting the many fans who continue to show their
unwavering support for our best in class coverage delivered through the full combined reach of
wbd's video first distribution platforms, including TNT, home to our four decade partnership
with the league, and here it is Max, our streaming service. We
think they have grossly misinterpreted our contractual rights with respect to the twenty five to
twenty six season and beyond, and we will take appropriate action. They're going
to assume this is an ugly video rights deal man. This is this is
out of control. They drugged their feet, they waited too long, they
opened up negotiations for somebody else, and now they're trying to go back and
right the wrong. It's over come on Boom boom. You know that leads
