So you're listening to the downbeat on ninety seven to one the Freak. Yes,
we'll get into Cowboys Eagles at seven o'clock. Obviously a lot of hot
thoughts on that one. Cowboys lose twenty eight to twenty three. Little things,
little things, little things more on that though. It's seven o'clock because
we had a big parade on Friday, the World Series Champion Parade, the
World champions Parade that they call it. Actually don't the World Series, you
mean the World Champion Parade. How do you feel about our Texas Rangers World
Series Championship. I feel good about the championship. It made me almost emotionless
during the Cowboy game isterday. I just think as we're in now a weird
lull. It's like you settle and you're like, wow, you know you're
on that high for hell four or five days. And maybe it is partially
the Cowboys playing and all eyes being on that and whatever. I don't know
it's but it's I don't know. I want to how everyone feels obviously incredible,
like oh my god, but I don't know. You kind of take
a breath and you're like, all right, I read some stuff yesterday,
like even more like follow up, like it's like weird, it's basically Twish
notes, like amazing notes on and like records that were set and looking at
some of them that are just wild. You have those. I do have
them. In fact, I could, let's do Katie's Twish notes. I
would look Katie's Twish Twish notes tomorrow, because I'm not saying it's it's five
minutes maybe, but there are some things in there that you'll just go all
o the Rangers winning, Yeah, the things you don't know, like individual
stats or a few of those, absolutely, a few involving Bach. I'll
wet the palette please. Okay, this is nuts right here. Bochie has
won fifteen of his last sixteen playoff rounds. Yeah, it's n sixteen.
Nobody has done that before. The closest is Joe Torri, who won fourteen
of sixteen playoff rounds from ninety six to twenty twenty one. But those are
all with the Yanks, right with the power done better than that, better
than that with the Rangers and then some Giants teams who you know, some
people thought the Giants would win that. You know, in twenty ten they
were favorites, but I don't know that they were right world beaters. I'll
just give you one more, another one, just a wet the beak.
It is soaked already. Justh Spores. It's gonna get you on. Jush
Spores. He had a five point five zero er in the regular season.
That is the highest era ever for a player to record the final out of
the World Series. He broke the record. Four eight to five was the
old one back in nineteen eighty five or something. Do you know who it
was? Something McKinley, Dave McKinley, or something big Dave McKinley. Finally,
I don't know, dangerous Dave McKinley, that famous eighty five series.
Everyone remembers that one. Everyone knows. I love it all right, Katie's
Katie's range your twist nose tomorrow. It's not that good. I feel like
we already did it right there, I just did it. Allure is gone.
You know what, Danny might be drawn away by a couple of those.
We'll just three minutes on it tomorrow. Let's do one minute. Okay,
Well, I'll get it down. I'll pay it. Let me get
some of the ones that aren't that interesting, like Jacob de Gram only pitched
six times this season that we kind of knew. Yeah, okay, i'll
mark that one out. Stripe strike that one as well. We'll do it
for thirty seconds tomorrow. Thirty seconds down. Yeah, one Kat's washed,
one note every six seconds. Okay. But because it happened, you get
to have a paray and I'm went to the barak and that's what we'll discuss
now. Yeah, talking draft all right, now, I've never seen more
climbing of buildings than what I saw on Friday. I left here, arrive
when the show ended. Yeah, walk me through the getting there. So
I had to run home to Richardson grab Rocks. I like, you did
leave that out on Friday? Yeah, when you were like I gotta go,
I gotta leave early, you didn't have time to talk to Dave Fleming,
the general manager of Dallas pickleball team. We talked, No, you
didn't. You packed your computer and walked out the door. I know a
lot about this pickleball stuff, and I'm a big fan of Brookhaven Country.
You didn't even clock out, but you had to go for your to pick
up your special lady. Huh. Okay, Well, my driver all right,
yeah, that's fair. I was so you were arriving toward Arlington at
what time? I left richardson ten? Okay, got to Arlington at eleven,
and that was far too late, and there was because the quest for
parking was out of control. Twelve fifteen was the go time. Yes,
okay. Now, I had through my friends at the Dallas Jackals rugby team,
good friend the VAP invite and you know, allegedly would have had parking,
but that was closed off. Couldn't get there. But they did have
a hospitality place for me to go. I want to go to water use
an indoor bathroom, which is great. A lot of people had to do
porta potties or go in their pants. I know we're going to get to
everything, but I just want to read a text that we just got because
it's related to what you said. Some dude said, man, I wish
i'd caught you there. Tizzle Absolute s show saw someone go down with the
porta potty they were dancing on and came out reineer, oh my god,
which I don't think is a lie. Yeah, I mean, if you're
shuffling on top of a porta potty, you can tump that thing on its
side, probably pretty easily. And that's if you don't go through the top
straight down into it. Now, that guy who texted is also sending some
pictures in and he's got a picture of himself with Corey. Seeger. Did
he scroll up there? Oh? Yeah, and he's hit. He had
a good view, so he was in there near Texas Live. Oh,
I know this guy like this guy. That guy must have been there early.
I would imagine to get right now, how are you hugging Corey?
C Hey? Call in an idiot? Yeah, call in man two on
four guy or else. I'll give you your number. He knows the number
and everyone will call you. Yeah, call me and tell me why you're
hugging Corey Seeker. So I was after the parking was such an show that
we decided, you know what, we should go away, okay and park
like as far away as possible an uber oh now, so we'd have to
make like a one hour walk down there or whatever. And we parked in
this spot and this lady starts screaming out of a building and she goes,
you can't park there. There's other cars parking there too, and she's yelling
at all of us, like, we're gonna toe all of you. We
have delivery trucks coming, and uh, they're not gonna be able to turn
around if you're all parked here. And we're like okay, and she goes
everyone's been trying to park he all day. You can't. We're down to
tell you. And she's hanging out of a building. She came storming out,
running out of the because what's to the east of the ballpark there?
I think it's the east either way, what for Dallas it is warehouse district?
Okay, okay, I'm talking about the opposite side of where At and
T Stadium is right east, as Okay said, and you're correct, yeah,
okay, yeah, And they usually sell parking for game days and stuff,
all these warehouse yes, and I mean there was one that was eighty
bucks parking. No, not doing that. No, we ended up parking
for free. Way back. Uber cruised in and took us very close.
It was the right decision. Such a mess, couldn't see anything. And
as I'm walking up at eleven, it's now twelve actually probably close to twelve.
Actually, I tweeted out of I posted a video while I could the
cell phone service got shoddy real quick too, because five hundred thousand plus were
in one small condensed area. But I posted a video of people climbing a
ladder up to get on top of a building. There were people trying to
get on top of the Dallash Jackals building, and this lady for the Dash
Jackals, who's very nice, was like, you can't do that's yelling these
people to get off the building. I saw guys on light posts. I
saw one guy who had they had two sticks to prod him up, you
know, and he was using the sticks as a base as he was climbing
up a light post, and then he slipped and one of the wooden sticks
nearly oh impaled him. Gave him the old pole vaulters curse. Yes,
dude, it was terrifying. It was madness. And at seven point thirty,
I'll tell you how many arrests we had and about some of the I
guess news stories from the parade. It was insane. And then I can
only see anything, So those are real tough. Were you interior parade route
or exterior exterior? Could people cross the parade route? How were they managing
that? So? Where bullpark Way is and Randall Mill. That's kind of
where I was. Ballpark Way is so you have the new ballpark. This
is again the opposite side of where At and T Stadium is east, So
you have the new ballpark, you have the big parking lot. Texas Live,
the big parking lot, all that, and then it was like the
street over from that, so that they were still driving by you. Okay,
look around you sort of they're still driving by you. But I was
still on the outside of it. Now, I don't know what it looked
like on TV. There were a lot of people grabbing and saying the TV
coverage was kind of over the map. I know from where I was,
it was it felt like the parade had no flow. And then all of
a sudden, then here comes three guys, you know, going thirty five
miles per hour in a Toyota Tundra, one at a time, one at
a time, one at a time, and then no one for five minutes,
and then here they go in. There's driving by kind of fast.
The video I saw it looked like they were zipping by quickly, which is
really weird because that would be the guy that comes in craps on the parade.
I just think Hey, I don't think anyone's equipped for five hundred thousand
people all at once. Who's equipped for that time square? Like maybe that,
Yeah, but why don't they go slower? Should have gone slower,
in my opinion, like give people moments slow. Did any of them that
you could tell get out of their trucks and run and do the high fives?
Not where I was, and it felt like it was wide too,
Like the streets looked wide to where the people weren't even anywhere really close to
I guess where the I don't know. On TV, it looked very impersonal
and not is immersive I guess is. Yeah, now you have it in
your head when you dream these kind of things. Well, this is where
I was kind of thinking that. First of all, was it rushed?
Maybe you don't know that you're gonna win the World Series on win in fact
in the world So you start, you're assuming it'll go to six or seven.
Okay, So therefore that would have given you a win on Friday or
Saturday, So you're thinking the praise is probably the week after, well,
the next weekend, No, it would have been a weekday. No,
the week after those Oh, they went on Wednesday. Night, like,
oh, if they went on Wednesday night. I don't understand why they could
have done the parade today or tomorrow. But would that have helped? Because
I think the truth is no, the parade route and logistics had been talked
about for years and years. Yeah, I mean, realistically, if you
can't do something like that and just wing it and get it done in two
or three days, you know, even we don't want to talk about Laura
Miller and all this, but yes, there's a lot of thought in planning.
I heard that that's why all these schools were closed because they needed police
maybe and I think maybe there's a law that you have to have one or
more police officers at every public school something like that. Okay, so they
made it sound like, yeah, we're closing ups cools come to the parade,
but just logistically they had to bring in police from neighboring towns. I
could absolutely see that because it was a madhouse. It was nuts. But
also I did see you think crazy. I saw a couple of verbal arguments.
I see, then crazy, we have someone on hold right now who's
at the praideless squad and popped them on. Let's get a get a inside
of you from them. Hello, what's your name? Jay? Hi?
Jay? Hey? Did you guys happen to see on Twitter or anything the
video of the people that were climbing out of the like drainage ditch things to
get to the parade route. Okay, is that on the side between the
new Ballpark and AT and T Stadium? Uh? It kind of goes I
guess by the lake. Yeah, yeah, by Mark Colts Lake. Yes,
I did see that. That was amazing. What are we saying,
climbing out of a sewage ditch? Yeah? Well, so from where my
family I did the same thing. I had to leave from work and meet
my family that was already there, and they were on the intersection that was
right across the street from AT and T Stadium. So as I'm walking to
where they are, I realized, oh crap, I'm on the wrong side
of the street. And you know they I'm sure you saw Kat they had
it blocked off, like you couldn't get across. You're on one side of
the street, you can't get across to the other side of the street.
Yeah. So I did what a lot of people were doing, where you
doubled back walk down into like this drainage ditch with these really super steep walls,
and people were just eating it and flipping and getting in mud. And
and then you had to walk underneath this bridge that was at and t way
up above where it spits you out literally right at where the lake begins.
And then you had to get out of the drainage ditch where the walls again
were really steep. One side you had people that were made that made like
a rope out of caution tape, police tape and were like pulling people out
with it. On the other side, you had people that were like making
a human chain and pulling people out of it. Yes, and then you
had to like climb over a chain link fence. It was the great part
of it. Nobody was mad about it. Everybody was just kind of laughing
at how ridiculous it was. And it was really funny. It was really
pretty funny. Did you cause right when you said that, I'm like,
imagine the logistical cluster of trying to meet your friends or family. Oh impossible?
Did you uh? Did you acquire them? I did? It was
downright miraculous. T shirt A bunch of was that they couldn't find it and
sell service was bad, so they couldn't connect. Yeah, there was no
going in or around or text or anything. But I and they had been
there since like eight o'clock in the morning, so they were right up there
by the barricade on the street corner. But I it was like two puppies
seeing each other, my wife and I after like being this long distance apart
where we were like running at each other in plum Ocean. So when you
finally found them, they had a decent spot. I mean, did you
enjoy the parade? Was it worth the insanity? Yeah, they had a
decent spot. There were some people that were calling my wife's names in Spanish
because I guess they were mad that we were in front of them, and
we were like, look, folks, we were here since eight o'clock this
morning, so sorry. Yeah. Yeah. I saw a couple of verbal
disputes that was based on territory, almost like that. I saw people like
crowding into a place that they had a canopy set up, and that people
were like crowding in and trying to push their kids in front of and they're
like, look, we've been here all morning set up a canopy, Like
well, there's if there was room we would let you, but there's not
room. It it's crowded. Team canopy there though, because just because you
lay out a blanket or canopy, does that definitely mean that no, this
is my, this is now mine. So then I have a giant thing
that no one can see past, so I can have shade too. Well.
When you're four kids and there weren't little kids. There are four kids
who were like twelve year olds, ten twelve year olds. It's like they
can't they can get go in front of you because they can see. He's
like no. The guy the near fight I saw, the guy was like
no, because I have people in front of me, like there's not room.
And then it was like your group of like you know, it was
a pack and they're like, look, things stand underneath the canopy with us,
but there's not room for them to get in front. He thanks for
your call, man. We have another one later, dude. All right,
to be safe out there, buddy, stay safe. Promise me stay
vigilant, Promise stay safe. I can't promise you that, all right,
that was a trick question. I know you can't tear it up out there.
Man. Hello, hey, big dog, you're on the phone.
Hello. Is that that mean it's me? What's your name? Man?
I was Wayne at Wachahatchie, Hey, Wayne, waksa Hachie Wayne Wayne?
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, is that what everyone calls you. I'm trying
to get it going, but it hasn't really caught him like I would hope
it would, like when you strut into the Waksa Hachie singles bar all the
heads whip and they're like, there he is with mylo. Yeah, your
Friday night bolo on. No, I'm married a damn it sucks. All
right? What's your deal? Wayne? You go out there, you get
mixed up and all that. Yeah? Yeah. I left work around ten
and then my son was in Grand Prairie at Grandma's house in West Grand Prairie,
so I just bubered from there, and then the guy was trying to
get on the bush to get on the thirty. I was like, no,
no, no, no, no, We're gonna take these back roads
on them, just north side of thirty there, and then it hit meets
up with Avenue Age and then got dropped off there just past Hurricane Harbor at
into Hurricane Harbor and we just checked it from there, which really wasn't a
bad spot. Our friends had sent us their apple locations, so I just
used walking directions from there. They said there was a big shiner orange tent.
Found that and met up pretty easily. There you go, and then
the weight happened. The weight, because you know, twelve fifteen, everybody's
like, yeah, let's go. And then thirty minutes later we had seen
stuff stuff, Yeah, what's the baby. What's the wildest thing that you
witnessed? Anything? Well, there was one guy there was like that weird
uh, that sculpture thing. Guy climbed on top of that. Guy handed
seeger d, cracked it open and handed it to him and then hoped the
barricade and then neatly was arrested. Yeah, I saw that. That was
kind of funny. I'm kind of bummed I didn't get to bring my drone
though it's kind of busted it up from fourth to July. Still. Yeah,
I had left before any of the before the actual ceremony happened down near
Texas Life, because I knew I couldn't get close to it, and by
then you were trying to kind of get away from it. By I mean,
I think the amount of oh I al saw two saw two haircuts happening.
I just had a dude text me, had a guy next to us
giving free haircuts. Yeah, you saw that, saw a couple of haircuts.
That's the guy I saw. Actually, yeah, that's one that one
guy saw. I saw another one a little further out right there off ballpark
and random mill. Guy was just cutting people's hair. Had him in a
chair going to town. That was kind of cool. But yeah, I
saw a guy on a street sign, saw a guy on a light post.
Everyone was climbing signs. I mean it was in buildings. What we
actually walks? Actually, Wayne, you climb anything? Uh No, uh,
not at all. Well, I thought it was crazy, Like immediately
after everybody's ripping off all those things, the posters on the barricades, they
were immediately all gone, and there was almost a fight over one of the
ones that hid World Series on it. But yeah, the uck World Series
banners. They went real quick to people who said I'm taking something home from
this day. Uh. And then traffic. I saw a couple of you
know, minor traffic fights. Yeah, so were you either Eu, Wayne
or Kevio as Uh that's the downbeat this morning. It's Wayne, It's k
T. It's me Mike Siroy. Did you guy? Did you guys go
to the after parade stage party? Like? Was that just a lost cause?
Because I saw the drone footage of that. It was very impressive to
see that sea of people, Like that was kind of the coolest thing.
But were you in eyeshot of any of that or were we out of there?
We got the hell after the Yeah, same, Okay, was a
good It was a good question. I actually want to go to I should
go watch it on YouTube. I should have done sweak and I just didn't
think about it. I'm sure he's on youtubehere. You can watch that part.
I have audio of something Corey secreted a little bit later in the show.
We got one more call We're gonna have time for okay, So thank
you, walks at you, walks at you, Wang. We appreciate it.
Thanks guys, all right, protect that walks the hat you Wang,
Thank thank you for the support on that last caller. We'll be quick here.
Hi. What's your name? Alex from Arlington? What's your story?
Alex? Well, we were me and my buddy went, We're like,
hey, we're going to go be a part of this awesomeness, right,
and we get there part around ten thirty, which is still too late.
Yeah, And we were right across the street from Texas Live, so we're
like, we didn't bring any drinks or anything, so we didn't know what
to expect. And as soon as Texas Live, as soon as it was
over, we were like, hey, we're going to book it to Texas
Live. And I didn't realize the stage was right there. Oh my buddy
and I walked through the entire crowd from one end of the parking lot to
Texas Live and I lost him like in mid walk, and I just turned
around and said, I know that we're going to Texas Live. I think
I'm gonna find him. I'm gonna find him. About ten minutes later,
he just pops out of the crowd right in front of me, and we
were just walking in Textas Live. We grab a drink and watch the the
the little stage presentation from there. But it was insane. I couldn't believe
that I actually ran into him. Yeah, red one in a million into
that crowd. How long do you wait for a drink? We waited through
the entire trophy presentation to get one. Yeah, to get too. We
ended up getting like, I think I got too. He got to I
mean, walked to the top of Texas Live and we're like, all right,
let's just drink this bear, let everybody clear out of him, and
we'll leave on the roof. So I get she walked through that whole crowd.
Just excuse me, sorry, go rangers. Yeah, ranger fist bumph
part No. Just it was bad because you would walk walk and walking rangers,
rangers, people, but what are you doing? And then you wouldn't
see someone in a chair sitting down right in front of you, so you'd
bump like right into them. Yeah, like my crotch would hit him right
in the face, and oh, I didn't know you're there, My bad,
so and you like try to walk around. It was so many people.
I've never seen that many people in one area. Do you run into
uh walks of haachie Wayne when you're out there? No, I didn't,
but man, I sure wish I would have had a bought a beer.
Hey, were there people climbing the seven eleven over there right across Texas Poople
on top of seven eleven, people on top of those two buildings across the
street. They were making like prison ropes. Out of t shirts and handing
beers to one another on top of there and shotgun in them where I was
like seven eight rows back on the side. I was seeing nothing, But
there are people beside me who on one person brought their jeep that'd been there
since five am, six am, and they've took their jeep and they were
standing on top of their jeep. Okay, that's good. That was a
good call for them because they could see everything. But in front of them
with someone who was on top of a sign wearing a monkey mask. That
guy's awesome call in if you're that guy I saw. Someone said parade was
nasty. Not enough trash cans. I mean, how can you possibly have
enough trash cans? I guess get him off the air. I hate him.
I'm glad you said the air. And another day said that they just
smelled a ton of weeds. There's a bunch of weed. Smell. Yes,
I did smell a lot of that, Yeah, yeah, a lot
of weed. The putting players in trucks was a weird move. There was
pudding with players in the they're having a snack pack. Yeah, I don't.
Yeah, if they're gonna be in there for a while they lost crushes
of beer and then opens up a snack pack. So yeah, that's more
pride stuff. I got some of the news stories, the facts and figures,
some arrest made. Overall pretty good. Overall, pretty good Arlington.
I don't think anyone dies yet, but I'll give you some of those details
at seven point thirty based on what the police are saying. But coming up
next, let's dive into Cowboys and Eagles, Mikey, let's do it.
A disappointing five point lost yesterday and Philadelphia, who are we gonna blame?
Who is our scope? Setting directly on the hottest take you ever heard?
Next to ninety seven won the free
