WEBVTT 1 00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:29.000 Good evening everybody, and welcome to another edition of Fire Up. Are we 2 00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:38.439 fired up? Gentlemen? Yes we are. Oh my goodness, there you 3 00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:42.439 go. That was your dog check exactly why I did it? Yes, 4 00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:47.880 I am fired up as always. Time to talk sports around the world. 5 00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:55.320 Right, let's do this. So my first, my first topic, this 6 00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:58.679 bothers me and I don't know how to how they should solve it. But 7 00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:07.760 last night I was watching hockey, watching the Panthers Bruins game. Now this 8 00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:12.719 game, if you like fights, it was great, but really as many 9 00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:17.120 fights as they had, as many people as they were taking off the ice, 10 00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:23.840 My thing is the game was already That game was awesome. Joshua, 11 00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:32.000 Yeah. My issue with that game is obviously the Panthers were up on the 12 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:38.159 Bruins. Then there's all these fights and all these guys were taking out ten 13 00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:42.879 minute penalties where they didn't even have ten minutes left in the game. So 14 00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:49.840 my question is in the playoffs, should penalties carry over to the next game, 15 00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:56.319 because I think that might deter some of those I mean some of those 16 00:01:56.319 --> 00:02:00.400 penalties. What do you guys think? I think so, because you know 17 00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:05.760 what candy they carry suspensions over. I mean like For instance, if you're 18 00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:08.639 tossed out of a baseball game, correct me if I'm wrong, when you 19 00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:12.960 go into the next game or something, they'll they'll have you sitting out at 20 00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:15.159 an inning or two or something, or we're gonna give you some kind of 21 00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:19.520 suspension or punishment. I've seen them do that. So if baseball doesn't, 22 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.240 why can't hockey do that? I mean, that's that's that makes a lot 23 00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.759 of sense there, It does, because maybe it'll deterar that at the end 24 00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:29.919 of the game and we're fighting and arguing on come on, it's over, 25 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:35.479 games over, go home, you know what I mean. Okay, now 26 00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:39.599 I'm going to go along a little bit with rocket scientists and Joshua Door here. 27 00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:50.599 You shouldn't carry it over because hockey has always had fighting involved. It 28 00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:53.400 is a major part of the sport. Yes, they frown upon it. 29 00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:59.439 Yes the penalties are longer now, but it's hockey. I'm still waiting to 30 00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:06.879 go to a buy match and have a hockey game breakout, because we know, 31 00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:10.759 darn well you can go to a hockey game and have a boxing match 32 00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:15.520 breakout at any time. All that takes is one bad hit, one bad 33 00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:20.639 move, one bad hook, whatever. Well, vocal in the chat. 34 00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:27.479 How about that? So will Hockey is hockey and fighting will always be a 35 00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:30.280 part of it. When it's time to throw hands, they throw hands. 36 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:39.520 I understand. I'm just asking the question because last night was fight after fight 37 00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:44.800 after fight, and the game was at that point done they I mean, 38 00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:53.560 the you know, it was just pent up frustration. I'm guessing, well, 39 00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.919 it's you're gonna call foul or they're gonna call some kind of you know, 40 00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:00.319 roughing call, whatever it is that they call in hockey. How it 41 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:04.000 goes. If they're gonna call that at the end and they see there's some 42 00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:08.599 fighting going on, it could I would be in favor of them carrying it 43 00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:11.280 over to the next game as soon as the game starts, put them in 44 00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:16.480 the penalty box. I mean, the Bruins were salty, I mean, 45 00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:23.480 but the same could be said said salty the game before. Yeah, the 46 00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:27.439 Bruins, they were always causing fights. They've done that for years, you 47 00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:35.199 know, So Rocket Sciences, Sorry, Ralph, wrong, That's okay. 48 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:40.439 Hey, that's why we have this platform so that we can all long before. 49 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:44.120 But I've been more right than wrong. So there you go. You 50 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:46.720 know what, at any time, any one of us can be wrong. 51 00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:53.759 Opinions are meant to be different. Opinions are meant to be opinions great. 52 00:04:53.920 --> 00:05:02.680 Sometimes they think it's just like your but look, give us a dog check. 53 00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:10.480 Then all right, you want another one. You got one, and 54 00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.399 Panthers didn't get whooped as bad. The score didn't till the true tale of 55 00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.680 the first game compared to the second game. Yes, yes, yeah, 56 00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:21.040 Rangers are up on my Carolina Panthers two to one and the fourth or in 57 00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:30.439 the third, you'd be a windspan. I'm sorry. I thought you'd be 58 00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.959 a Penguins fan. I am, but I'm also a Carolina fan. I'm 59 00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.519 a I love Raleigh. I love Raleigh, North Carolina. It's a beautiful 60 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:41.360 place. It's a beautiful place. I want to move down here as soon 61 00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:44.639 as you know. I got business up here. I got to keep going 62 00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:47.560 with here. But I got some friends down here. I can get me 63 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:56.279 moving down there if I need to so. Jerry Lions GM golf extension is 64 00:05:56.759 --> 00:06:00.600 high priority. They're taking it to the next level. Are they going to 65 00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:06.199 get it done or are they not? Here's the thing Brad has said, 66 00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:10.879 it was a priority to try and get a deal done with Gough, But 67 00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:15.600 at the same time, the way he words it is different then with the 68 00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:20.240 way they worded about Golf last off season. If you go back to last 69 00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:25.800 off season, Golf is the man, He's the future of Detroit. Even 70 00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.360 though he said it was a high priority, he didn't add that GoF is 71 00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:32.439 the future of Detroit. Those are key words that are missing from all this 72 00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:38.240 statement. Yes, they are trying to get a deal done. They hope 73 00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:41.639 they get a deal done. I mean I read all the words of that 74 00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:47.399 interview, and I paid attention to it very closely because when I'm following my 75 00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:54.120 our lions, it's important that I look at it from both sides of what's 76 00:06:54.160 --> 00:07:00.560 being said. It sounds like he wants to get an extension done, probably 77 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:04.000 two to three years. The thing is is Goff wants a payday this season. 78 00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:13.439 All of that hinges on whether it really gets the Cam Sutton's contract actually 79 00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:16.360 gets voided or not. And I think with the way that the free agency, 80 00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:21.000 when spending big money, just basically halted after the Ziegler signing, which 81 00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:29.000 was basically the same day that they had to dismiss Cam Sutton. If you've 82 00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:31.519 got twenty million over what you got to spend on your rookies, and there's 83 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:39.279 guys out there that said they're willing to play less than their actual market value, 84 00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:44.560 like ab and stuff like that, and they haven't made those moves, 85 00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.319 and people are making moves all around us, getting stuff and trading for stuff. 86 00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:54.759 There's a reason that's not done because if that's not voided, his twelve 87 00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:59.720 point five million dollar cap hit stays on the roster even though he's off the 88 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:05.279 team, and there's an additional seven point five million dollars in dead cap hit. 89 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:07.959 That's a twenty million dollar hit, which means all they have enough for 90 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:20.399 are prove it players and the rookie contract. So I'm at a catch twenty 91 00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:24.480 two. I think that's what they're waiting on because Golf wants to get Goff's 92 00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:28.040 agent wants him to get a raised this year from the thirty one point five 93 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:31.600 he makes, even though this is the last year of his contract, and 94 00:08:31.679 --> 00:08:35.039 if that doesn't get voided, we don't have the money to give it to 95 00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.679 him. So I think it's all going to hinge on that decision coming from 96 00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:46.440 the NFL. I say, okay, what happened to the hockey talk? 97 00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:54.120 Joshua and I have to go back to where's let's get back to the hockey 98 00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:56.559 tech. That was an excellent question to start the show game. Thank you, 99 00:08:56.639 --> 00:09:00.960 thank you, Thank you, Joshua. I think that calls for a 100 00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:03.919 veg of broccoli. We'll to be honest with you. Rockey is one of 101 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:07.080 my favorite vegetables. And Desue, you know where I live, so I 102 00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:11.480 expect a bag to be delivered. Thank you, Candy. Yes, So 103 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:16.039 one of the things I'll go back to, I'll go back to a little 104 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:20.600 bit of hockey talk because I'm going to talk about when we were we went 105 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:24.639 up to the draft. After we went to the draft, we went to 106 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.679 Niagara Falls for those of the you know. After that, we went up 107 00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:35.799 to Toronto. When we were in Toronto, we went to the old Maple 108 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:43.759 Leafs Stadium that was built back in nineteen thirty one. And what was really 109 00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:52.720 cool is they converted that stadium into one of the floors is a grocery store. 110 00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.679 The first level, the street level is a grocery store, and there's 111 00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:58.919 actually still Center Ice. They have a mark in one of the aisles that 112 00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:05.919 actually has what was Center Ice, and then the floors above it have become 113 00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:11.720 a college and so Floor two has the basketball court, Floor three, four, 114 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:16.200 and five are classrooms and stuff like that, and floor six is actually 115 00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:20.000 that they raised the hockey the ice up to that level, kept the still 116 00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:28.639 stadium seating and they have national championships in Toronto all there and they hold that 117 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:35.639 regularly. I thought that was cool. So yes, I can talk a 118 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:41.240 little bit of hockey. We know, am I as well versed in hockey 119 00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:48.320 as some of the other sports. No, but hockey talk now? Well, 120 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:52.559 Rocket Scientists Rangers are up to one. Who's gonna win the series? 121 00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:58.559 Oh? I hope Carolina can. That's all I can say. Rangers have 122 00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:01.279 been pretty tough this season though, Yeah, I'm not I never have. 123 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:07.879 Rocket scientist has a question for you, Ralph? Oh wait where here it 124 00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:13.440 is? Here? It is question for Ralph? Are you really will question 125 00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:18.360 before? No? I'm not will focus spot now unless there's a chance I 126 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:26.039 am And I don't know. You have the hockey experts here, Josh and 127 00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:31.720 the guys. It's the Carolina who is not the Panthers, Ralph, So 128 00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:37.120 I said, Hurricanes. There you go. Yeah, So, okay, 129 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.799 I'm going to get something off my chest because this has been this has been 130 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:48.200 bothering me and I know you guys probably doesn't matter if you want to comment 131 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:54.039 or not. There is a story coming out of Wellington, Florida. And 132 00:11:54.120 --> 00:12:00.840 if you know anything about Wellington, Florida, it is of a higher rent 133 00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:03.159 district. It's not the Boca Ratona, Florida, but it's up there. 134 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:16.919 And I am shocked and very very disappointed. Over the weekend there was there 135 00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:22.200 in a community. There is a family of four kids and the parents, 136 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.480 and they have a basketball hoop. You know those basketball hoops that you can 137 00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:31.559 move around it. It's not stationary, you can move it from place to 138 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:35.919 place so your kids can play well. One of the families had this. 139 00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:45.080 One of the girls was out shooting baskets and unfortunately they moved the basketball hoop 140 00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:50.480 too close to the neighbor and so the ball kept landing in the neighbor's yard. 141 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:58.120 Dad went over to get the ball. Neighbor comes out, irate, 142 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:05.159 upset, goes back. They have words, They exchange words. Neighbor goes 143 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.879 back in the house, comes back out with his gun, shoots Dad in 144 00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:13.320 front of the kids. Mom hears the shot from in the house, comes 145 00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:18.120 out, neighbor shoots the mom. So now we have four kids that do 146 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:26.080 not have any parents. What is this world coming to? I honestly, 147 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:31.360 a basketball lands in your yard and what you're gonna do is you're gonna take 148 00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.919 their lives of these parents. I cannot believe it. It just it is. 149 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:39.000 I rate. I'm just I rate. I'm really upset about it. 150 00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:43.120 There is a GoFundMe page. I do not know the family per se, 151 00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:48.279 right, but it's just sad that this is what the world has come. 152 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:52.879 Tom we think we have nobles for people. Do you want to see some 153 00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:58.120 kid? You watch Any's Neighborhood Wars, and you'll see some of what these 154 00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:01.559 neighbors get into in these different times, and you know, it's really sad 155 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.559 because, like here, I'll give you an example. I live in a 156 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:11.200 public housing building here in Pittsburgh, Okay, and I had two ladies who 157 00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:15.879 were outside last night at four o'clock in the morning, drunk, screaming, 158 00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:18.440 playing music, you know all that stuff. My wife was up all night 159 00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:22.639 because of it. Okay. Now if I go and I talk to them, 160 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:26.000 they're gonna get ignorant with me. I've tried to talk to some people 161 00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:28.919 and hear about some things. Like one guy had a loud motorcycle and he 162 00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:33.399 gave he threw the F bomb at me and threatened he was he was going 163 00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.600 to do botletly harmed to me. I had to call police at a file 164 00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:39.519 report because he threatened me. That's harassment. All I was trying again, 165 00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:46.120 Oh Candy, I've tried this numerous times with everybody everywhere. Let's talk about 166 00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:48.919 it, but nobody wants to do that anymore. So their means of talking 167 00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:52.519 and shooting, and that's what happens. And it's sad, it really is. 168 00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:58.879 I agree with you. That's that sixth story and I you know, 169 00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:03.960 it's really sad to hear that that this is where we are. So Joshua, 170 00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:05.840 you didn't hear about that, but then it looks like you looked it 171 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:11.960 up and you literally lived ten minutes from that house. It is sad. 172 00:15:11.639 --> 00:15:18.600 That is that's very shad. They're talking about somebody who lives in a town 173 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:22.679 that out of the last twenty years, they were number one as the murder 174 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:28.000 rate for capita wow for the last sixteen of the twenty years, and that's 175 00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:33.039 Flint, Michigan. Three of them has been sagging off. One was Detroit 176 00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.399 and now the murder rate per capita has jumped so much because of the strict 177 00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:43.440 gun laws. It's Chicago beating us. Now Kalamazoo is up ahead of us 178 00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:48.480 in crime rate because of the methadone problem down there. Our crime rate. 179 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:54.080 We got shortage of police. They can't get nobody to you know, officer. 180 00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:58.720 We're down two hundred officers. It's it's everywhere though. Really there's not 181 00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:03.200 enough police when you look at the police per capita, because it used to 182 00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:07.320 be for about every fifty to one, which one hundred is a capita, 183 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:11.279 correct? Is that not what it was? They used to be every hundred 184 00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:15.639 there was two cops for that area. They weren't always in the same car 185 00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:22.080 either, which made it easier for them to patrol those areas. Now you've 186 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:26.600 got one cop trying to cover for five hundred. That's five capita for one 187 00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:32.639 police in all these major cities. Because it's hard to find cops that want 188 00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:37.000 to do the job and put their lives on the line anymore. That's what's 189 00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:40.759 happened. The old guard of the people that stayed for forty years in the 190 00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:45.159 police force are no more. They stay about ten to twenty years, and 191 00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:48.240 once they get tired of it, they're out, Jeremy. The George Floyd 192 00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:53.440 thing did not help police. That's as simple as that, because now you 193 00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:56.080 know, police a under a microscope too much. You know, you got 194 00:16:56.120 --> 00:17:00.159 too much, too many cell phone cameras out there, you got you know, 195 00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.279 there's a camera everywhere. You know, you can't and walk down the 196 00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:06.920 block and there's not a camera. So everybody that there's too many cameras, 197 00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:10.480 to's too much to see everything, and a policeman can't do his job. 198 00:17:10.680 --> 00:17:15.240 So I mean unless a small borrow or something or a small everybody chopped up 199 00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:19.279 those videos to where they just show the bad and they don't show what leads. 200 00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:23.400 They don't show the argument or what happened or what type of attitude that 201 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:30.559 was coming into that situation. Now employd situation. It is what it is. 202 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:34.519 It's no different than what happened in Ferguson. And what's crazy is I 203 00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:42.039 was actually a traveling warranty tech person for a technology technological company. I would 204 00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:49.920 go and fix servers, UH satellite internet and everything else. And while on 205 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:53.960 the news, I go into my hotel room and I'm watching the news. 206 00:17:55.000 --> 00:18:00.799 I just drove into town and they're showing fires and riots everywhere. I could 207 00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:07.119 see my hotel in the background. There's no fire around me, and I'm 208 00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:11.440 trying to figure out where's this fire. So I went and drove around. 209 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:18.960 I didn't see it. I never saw a fire. I never saw a 210 00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:29.039 news for them to put something on. I still think that it was a 211 00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:33.559 wag the dog thing. Look over here, this is all really bad. 212 00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:37.799 While we do this, and you saw a whole bunch of laws that we 213 00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:44.680 never heard about or got to vote on, that got pushed through. I 214 00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:51.559 will not say the acronym there because I am in all lives matter. We 215 00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:53.440 are all one race, the human race. We all have. There's just 216 00:18:53.519 --> 00:19:00.920 different skin, skin, pigmentations, and ethnic background. That's it. Everybody's 217 00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:08.240 raised differently. And say what you want. The government is the cause of 218 00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:15.599 ninety nine percent of everything. Because as soon as to all the big medias 219 00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:25.079 became owned from left wing and right wing, they've all give misappropriation news about 220 00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:30.000 the other side. But if you actually read both sides of it, you'll 221 00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:36.880 come to a conclusion in the middle, what is the real truth? Correct? 222 00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:41.640 Okay, So I know the guys are talking. They want hockey back. 223 00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:48.640 I want to go to another route. So what do you guys think 224 00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:56.519 about the Indian and a Polis columnist who now won't cover Clerk or the fever 225 00:19:56.160 --> 00:20:03.519 after the awkward exchange that they had in her initial press conference. Have you 226 00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:06.559 guys heard about this? No, I didn't hear about it at all, 227 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:11.680 all of it. No, I just about how many points she scores every 228 00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:22.480 game. Yes, Well, basically what happened is during the when they introduced 229 00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:30.240 her, one of these writers made the heart shape, like you know, 230 00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:34.160 we all do, but that's a gesture that Clark is known for making her 231 00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:40.039 family members. The exchange that followed was Clark says, you like that. 232 00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:45.319 Doyle says, I like that you're here, and I like that you're here. 233 00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:48.279 Clark says, yeah, I do that for my family after every game. 234 00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:52.400 So it's pretty cool, right. He said, Well, start doing 235 00:20:52.440 --> 00:21:02.559 it to me and we'll get along just fine. WHOA, I'm like what 236 00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:06.519 what? Yeah? Are you kidding me? Like this is something she does 237 00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:11.839 to her family. And now, yes, Joshua Door, we are talking 238 00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:15.079 about this because there is more than just hockey, and we've already talked a 239 00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:22.400 little bit about hockey. So this columnist now supposedly was suspended for two weeks 240 00:21:22.680 --> 00:21:29.799 and he will no longer cover the Indianapolis fever. Wow, that's crazy, 241 00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:37.240 that's nuts. Oh my. You know, media needs to be put in 242 00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:40.880 check every now and then. Yeah, a lot of media, a lot 243 00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:44.240 of writers, a lot of reporters, a lot of talking head done DV 244 00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:52.920 pushed things and push narratives too far. And kudos to her for standing up 245 00:21:52.920 --> 00:22:02.640 for herself. Yes, but what he did is wrong, that's unacceptable. 246 00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:10.119 That would be like me if let's say, at the draft I tried to 247 00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:12.279 get Terry On to answer a question and he didn't answer it. That would 248 00:22:12.319 --> 00:22:15.920 be like me saying, well, I'm not going to cover the Lions anymore. 249 00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:22.119 Mm hmm. It would be the same thing. Yeah, some people 250 00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:26.000 do not have the common sense to get out of their own damn way, 251 00:22:26.440 --> 00:22:32.839 No, I don't. Yeah, we got we got a sports guy here 252 00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:36.039 who has a talk show, like you said, Jeremy, some of them, 253 00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:41.200 and he says some things that are derogatory, and he says things about 254 00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:45.160 people that are just obnoxious, and you know he has an audience because people 255 00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:52.200 like that. Okay, He's like Howard Stern of sports. He's the old 256 00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:56.000 Howard Stern, not the current Howard Stern. The old Howard Stern of sports. 257 00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:02.079 Yeah, exactly. So he just you know, he does what he 258 00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:07.519 does and he's vulgar, and you know he still does it and that's hey, 259 00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:10.400 that's his style. We all have styles. I have a style. 260 00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:12.799 You have a style, Jeremy how you do things. So does Candy and 261 00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:18.319 Scott and everybody else. You know my styles, my style. I tell 262 00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:21.759 it like it is. People don't like it, that's too bad. You 263 00:23:21.799 --> 00:23:23.839 know. I got politicians in this time that won't do won't come on my 264 00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:29.680 podcast because I'm gonna I don't like the fact I asked some tough questions. 265 00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:33.599 So there you go. I got a radio station in this time, it 266 00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:37.640 won't hire me because I ask tough questions and I tell it like it is, 267 00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:40.079 and they want me to just go with the company line, and I'm 268 00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:45.720 not doing it. I'll stay here and do this. Yep. Josh Wador 269 00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:48.920 brings up a good point. In Boston, a journalist called for them to 270 00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:56.920 hurt Chuck in the next game. That's that's no different then when a player 271 00:23:57.000 --> 00:24:03.039 does get hurt in the game, when the other team says, well, 272 00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:07.000 we need to hurt one of theirs the next game, it's no different. 273 00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:11.960 And if a reporter is telling a team to hurt a player on the opposite 274 00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:21.519 team, they're wrong. Absolutely, you're not playing the sport. You're not 275 00:24:21.559 --> 00:24:23.559 being a sportsman. If you want to beat the team, you want to 276 00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:27.559 beat them when they're healthy, because what does it say if you can't beat 277 00:24:27.599 --> 00:24:33.160 them when they're healthy and you're going to take them out? Exactly exactly. 278 00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:37.880 Yeah, that's that's unacceptable too, you know, And Ralph, don't ever 279 00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:45.519 comply bee who you are. That's I don't care politicians in this time I 280 00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:48.359 want to come on my show, I could care less. You know. 281 00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:52.880 That just goes to show that they are they're cowards. They don't like the 282 00:24:52.920 --> 00:25:00.720 fact I asked tough questions. It's too bad. Mm hmm. I'm guessing 283 00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:04.079 how I'll talk about it after the show with you for a second. Okay, 284 00:25:04.440 --> 00:25:07.680 never mind, I don't want to get into that. But yes, 285 00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:17.799 I salute you for standing up for yourself and your beliefs. Yep. Would 286 00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:22.720 Charles Berkley gets there again on t N T Oh yeah, absolutely, But 287 00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:29.240 that's been his attitude his entire life. He's stop. He's not gonna change 288 00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:34.720 who he is, whether it's TV, whether it's on the news, whether 289 00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:38.640 it's in person. He is there again actually, and you know what, 290 00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:44.279 that's why he got to where he's at. They like that opinion. Hey, 291 00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:48.200 he makes more money than we do. Oh yeah, and as long 292 00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:52.920 as people watch it, he's gonna make money. I believe he's watching in 293 00:25:52.960 --> 00:26:00.559 the background somewhere. Well, there you go, absolutely, rocket scientists. 294 00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:03.599 I appreciate you guys being there. You guys help drive the chat. We 295 00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:10.720 love all the chat. It's awesome. It's awesome. Yes, right now, 296 00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:15.000 Rangers Hurricanes did is going into overtime. They are tied to all at 297 00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:21.640 the end of the third so oh man again and Joshua Door is exactly right. 298 00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:26.440 There's a big difference between arrogance and being a piece of crap. Mm 299 00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:37.880 hmm. And Dallas is about to start yep. So, Jeremy, any 300 00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:45.880 any other topics you want to bring up besides your town. There really isn't 301 00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:48.920 a lot going on, But there is something I noticed in the draft, 302 00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:53.240 and I don't know if you noticed this, Candy Day three. You saw 303 00:26:53.279 --> 00:27:00.680 a lot more of these skilled players going that had special teams value, whether 304 00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:06.519 it was tacklers or more returners or stuff like that. Every team picked at 305 00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:11.079 least one in Day three. I think that in response to the new kickoff 306 00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:15.319 rules and how they have to be played, because people needed sure tacklers in 307 00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:21.200 the special teams room than what they needed originally. And I think that's a 308 00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:25.960 huge thing that's gonna be going on. You're gonna see a lot more late 309 00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:30.839 round picks make teams on specialty teams. Yes, absolutely, Oh, here 310 00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:36.400 we go. They're asking for the dog check. They want you to give 311 00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:38.799 the big bark this time, Ralph. Oh, I don't, I don't, 312 00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:44.880 Park, I don't know. I got you here. I will give 313 00:27:44.920 --> 00:27:52.319 them something. Yeah, there we go, give them the hard and then 314 00:27:52.359 --> 00:28:00.519 of course when the right team scores. Oh, you guys are funny, 315 00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:07.400 we are hey. I was always told I was heels. You don't need 316 00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:11.200 to bark, ditch out out dog check. That's it, that's it, 317 00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:17.720 Ralph. They just want you to say, dog check, dog check. 318 00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:23.160 There you go, perfect, dog check. Oh, dog check. The 319 00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:29.799 media guys telling teams to hurt other players. I'm gonna give you a sound 320 00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:38.440 that should be very familiar. It's right at the end of Mario, Uh, 321 00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:47.200 are you all gonna do an NFL Draft team grade show? Mm hmm. 322 00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:51.880 I haven't thought about that, but that's an idea, Andrew. That's 323 00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:55.960 why I'm trying to bring more people like Ralph who covers the Steelers on the 324 00:28:56.000 --> 00:29:00.000 next week's Wednesday show. I'm trying to get a few more fans of other 325 00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:07.119 NFL. I've done him before on his shell. Well, that's what I'm 326 00:29:07.160 --> 00:29:08.559 doing on my show, on my radio show, and I'm going to try 327 00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:12.200 to get it done before the end of June. I'm having somebody come on 328 00:29:12.279 --> 00:29:17.759 from all thirty two teams to talk about different things throughout the year. The 329 00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:19.680 time of day. I would love to be there if I can. Oh, 330 00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:22.039 yeah, I know, I'd ask you. Yeah, I've had George 331 00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:29.279 Ikorn on already. George talked about Detroit Allons when he was on SO and 332 00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:34.440 Joshua. I don't know that Scott would be pissed. Scott wants at school 333 00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:38.599 that I do. In fact, he will gladly tell you that I run 334 00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:44.359 a country club like show and he's more of a drill sergeant and that's what 335 00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:48.720 it is. But that's why the work, you know, General and we're 336 00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:53.599 the private and the corporals that are just we're like we're like Bill Murray and 337 00:29:53.640 --> 00:30:00.440 the other guys on stripes. Oh, yes, that's the fact Jack. 338 00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:10.640 There, we get, that's the fact Jack. In the last hour, 339 00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:14.720 I have just lost my car, my apartment, my job, and my 340 00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:19.720 girlfriend. And then Harold Ramis goes, well, you still have your health, 341 00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:26.200 you know, didn't you pick up a beer and go that's debatable and 342 00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:33.680 drink it. There we go. Okay, okay, guys, it's time 343 00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:40.920 I think for my town. Ralph. Yeah, miss Montgomery, Gentry, 344 00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:45.160 this is my town. But anyway, Yeah, this Saturday, we have 345 00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:49.640 our number one pick from last year, Paul Skeins. He's gonna be pitching. 346 00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:55.279 He makes his debut this Saturday. The Pirates had to basically bring him 347 00:30:55.319 --> 00:30:59.799 up. We need, we need. Our starting rotation has actually been pretty 348 00:30:59.799 --> 00:31:03.359 good. Our bullpen's been letting us down and there's been some hitting issues. 349 00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:10.440 There's a talk about firing some a name you might know, Candy and Andy 350 00:31:10.480 --> 00:31:15.720 Haynes, you know, so they're talking about firing him. And then this 351 00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:22.960 past week, the the Penguins fired assistant coach Todd Reardon. Reardon was in 352 00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:25.920 charge of the power playing the defense, and those were the two areas of 353 00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:30.960 the team that's stunk so they got rid of him. Don't know who they're 354 00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:33.720 going to bring in, don't know what the season is going to look like 355 00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:37.680 yet because Kyle Dubis is kind of keeping it hush hush. Steelers, on 356 00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.519 the other hand, had an opportunity to get a two top notch receivers and 357 00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:47.359 they blew it. Laid a big egg Tyler Boyd and Odell Beckham Junior, 358 00:31:47.519 --> 00:31:51.160 and neither one of them they bothered the sign. And then here's the here's 359 00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:55.519 the bottom line of it all. The Steelers are so cheap that the Tennessee 360 00:31:55.559 --> 00:31:59.400 Titans gave him. Gave Tyler Boyd a four point five million dollar contract. 361 00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:02.200 You mean to tell tell me that the Steelers couldn't pay him that? Well, 362 00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:06.920 the Steelers here's what the Steelers said, Oh, well that's uh, 363 00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:12.880 he's not worth second receiver money. He didn't even want second receiver money, 364 00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:16.160 Okay. And then now they're saying that the Steelers were getting gouged for eight 365 00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:21.240 million dollars. Why did he take five with Tennessee? Was he desperate? 366 00:32:21.559 --> 00:32:23.960 Why didn't he do that with the Steelers and stay home? I passed his 367 00:32:24.039 --> 00:32:28.720 house all the time when I go to my sister's place. Okay, So 368 00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:35.079 thanks Steelers for not bringing in the top notch receiver and going with Roman Wilson 369 00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:38.599 from Michigan. That's about where we're going to be with a second wide receiver. 370 00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:43.200 So but I hear Omar Kahn has a big trade coming up, so 371 00:32:43.240 --> 00:32:46.839 we'll see what happens there as well, and that's my that's my time, 372 00:32:47.559 --> 00:32:52.400 though. I'm sorry, Jeremy may get trade Burke so from the Titan since 373 00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:55.799 he's on the trade block. Yeah, yeah, we'll see what happens. 374 00:32:55.920 --> 00:33:00.640 Nomar CON's up to something. So somebody ask me on the Lion's Chat, 375 00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:06.079 would I be willing to trade for Trey Burkes. He's a failed first round 376 00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:08.119 pick at this point. If you look at his drop rate, it's very 377 00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:17.319 similar to what Eric Ebron had right which at a thirty drop rate, I'm 378 00:33:17.400 --> 00:33:22.519 not interested in. You can't be a tall, contested catch guy that can't 379 00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:28.640 catch exactly sac So I would say if it was a seventh rounder and you 380 00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:30.680 get to give him a prove it deal on his last year of his rookie 381 00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:36.559 contract and don't accept the fifth year, I'd be good with it. That's 382 00:33:36.559 --> 00:33:40.119 about it. Johnson to Carolina for a six round pick. But so that 383 00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:44.640 guy that sixth round pick too, I saw that. Yeah, we did, 384 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:49.759 yes. But at the same time in Detroit, let's talk about the 385 00:33:49.759 --> 00:33:54.240 Tigers right now and how everybody's complaining because they have a two to sixteen batting 386 00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:59.119 average right now, but they're winning games late. The problem is they don't 387 00:33:59.119 --> 00:34:01.720 get their batting going early in the games. They're not putting up any Crookeet 388 00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:07.319 numbers before the fourth inning. They're not getting any of those until the fifth 389 00:34:07.319 --> 00:34:14.039 through ninth innings. But league wide, the batting average across the league is 390 00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:17.559 two thirty. So if you think about that, they're actually a middling team 391 00:34:19.320 --> 00:34:23.400 batting average wise. The highest team, of course, is the Dodgers, 392 00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:28.920 because they got show Aatani who's batting over three hundred and raising the team batting 393 00:34:28.960 --> 00:34:35.320 average over to eighty until they hit the playoffs exactly, you know, but 394 00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:40.320 where until show Aatani blows out his UCL again and then he's yeah, because 395 00:34:42.320 --> 00:34:45.840 I know they're not using him throwing, and that's probably good to heal that, 396 00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:49.079 but he's still batting, and you use some of those same muscles that 397 00:34:49.119 --> 00:34:52.280 are attached to those ligaments, and it has to be doing a strain on 398 00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:54.679 his reab because he is leading the league in the home runs right now. 399 00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:06.000 So with the Tigers, I think they need to send Spencer torkleson former number 400 00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:08.960 one pick who hasn't hit a single home run when he hit thirty one last 401 00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:14.920 year, down to Triple A to work with the hitting coach again because evidently 402 00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:22.159 the hitting coach that that Detroit isn't doing jack at least lot. Okay, 403 00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:29.440 Joshua, I'm glad you're still staying up, even though it's only because of 404 00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:34.679 the overtime. We appreciate that. RXJ, thank you. I appreciate you 405 00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:37.480 saying you like the way I run the show. Ralph, they have a 406 00:35:37.599 --> 00:35:45.440 question for you. What was for dinner tonight? I had two chicken raps 407 00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:50.000 from Arby's because my wife and I were on the way home from my doctor's 408 00:35:50.039 --> 00:35:52.840 appointment that was late and I didn't feel like cooking when I got home, 409 00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:55.960 so I had two chicken raps from Arby's. I don't eat as much as 410 00:35:57.000 --> 00:36:00.880 I used to because I'm trying to get my weight down. I need several 411 00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:10.559 surgeries and Joshua, no, Scott did not get KFCs. I am trying 412 00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:17.119 to get him his numbers better and get us more on a healthier track. 413 00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:23.199 So we kind of went Atkins style. We went hammer room meet with cheese 414 00:36:23.400 --> 00:36:29.679 and some taco seasoning and he had I think he had a rice Crispy bar 415 00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:32.480 for a treat at the end. But no, KFC, you're trying to 416 00:36:32.800 --> 00:36:37.159 we're both trying to shave off a couple of pounds. Oh there you go, 417 00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:44.800 Thank you go, Ralph. So as for my town, Joshua and 418 00:36:44.840 --> 00:36:49.880 all the guys that wanted hockey talk, I'm actually gonna talk hockey and it's 419 00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:54.280 not the Florida Panthers. I'm going to talk about the Milwaukee Admirals and can 420 00:36:54.320 --> 00:37:00.199 anybody in the chat room tell me who they're what team they're affiliated with. 421 00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:06.280 But while I'm talking about that, they are actually in there. They won 422 00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:14.280 a must win game last night, taking down the Texas Stars in Game three 423 00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:20.920 to force a Game four of the Central Division Semifinals. In that game, 424 00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:27.199 there were eleven penalties called, including a game misconduct and major on the Admirals. 425 00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:32.920 In total, fifty three penalty minutes were assessed for both teams. You're 426 00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:38.760 not familiar with them, but interested, Joshua. They happened to be Nashville 427 00:37:38.880 --> 00:37:46.400 Predators a team affiliates. So they used to be the Chicago Blackhawks and then 428 00:37:46.480 --> 00:37:52.599 they were also they were affiliated with another team, but they for years now. 429 00:37:52.639 --> 00:38:00.159 They have been associated with the Nashville Creditors since nineteen ninety eight. AHL, 430 00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:08.239 yep, the that's the American Hockey League, correct if I remember right? 431 00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:14.639 The h L is the one that covers uh that western side Quebec windsor 432 00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:22.719 Toronto area in Michigan. Yes, our h L team is Wilkesbury Scranton Penguins 433 00:38:22.199 --> 00:38:31.119 and they're playing for the Calder Cup. That's called ah A a h L, 434 00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:37.880 and they're in the semi finals at this point. And we have close 435 00:38:37.960 --> 00:38:40.760 to me in the OAATEL that would be the second off spirit in the Flint 436 00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:49.400 Firebirds. So they played tomorrow night and they played in Milwaukee last night. 437 00:38:49.559 --> 00:38:57.840 So who is still in Let's see, well, I can tell you Texas 438 00:38:57.960 --> 00:39:06.079 is playing the Admirals. I'm not sure I know who else is in it. 439 00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:09.280 Let's see, they're playing the Texas Stars and the other team blah blah 440 00:39:09.280 --> 00:39:31.559 blah blah, bayh doesn't mention it HL playoffs Panthers. Let's seem. Then 441 00:39:31.559 --> 00:39:36.840 there's the I don't know if they're in it. There's the Coachella Valley Firebirds. 442 00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:42.639 That's the newest team to the AHL. The oldest team is the Bears 443 00:39:42.679 --> 00:39:52.079 out of Rock, which was formerly the Rochester Americans. OT one has started. 444 00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:58.280 Okay, well, you can do more on the American Hockey League twenty 445 00:39:58.280 --> 00:40:01.440 twenty four Calder Cup playoffs. I do know the Admirals won it all in 446 00:40:01.559 --> 00:40:07.920 twenty two thousand and four, I believe was the last time. There's one 447 00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:12.400 in Hershey, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Providence, Grand Rapids, Lake Eery, 448 00:40:12.480 --> 00:40:16.840 San Antonio, Houston, Charlotte, Toronto, Rochester, New York, Saint 449 00:40:16.920 --> 00:40:22.360 John's, Wilt Spurrow, Scranton. Right, that's the one for the Penguins, 450 00:40:22.519 --> 00:40:29.039 yep. Manchester, Milwaukee, Norfolk, Syracuse, Hamilton, Bridgeport, 451 00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:36.320 Texas, Peoria, Rockford, Connecticut, Portland, Worcester. How are you 452 00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:40.760 saying, I don't know, I hate that word. But at Arondack, 453 00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:47.920 Springfield, Albany, Habbitsford, Binghamton, Oklahoma City. In Toronto, i've 454 00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:52.880 seen two called the Marleys yep. I have mentioned Toronto, Okay, and 455 00:40:52.920 --> 00:41:00.239 then the Cleveland Monsters. I believe that's the Wilt Spurre Scranton because that is 456 00:41:00.239 --> 00:41:06.119 a suburb of the Cleveland one. It just says the cities where they're at. 457 00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:12.519 Yeah, Wilkesburg, PA, that's supper by Williamsport. That's where Joe 458 00:41:12.519 --> 00:41:16.880 Biden is from Cleveland here, that's weird, So, Joshua, I've been 459 00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:22.920 to many many Milwaukee Admirals games. In fact, one of my good friends 460 00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:29.960 had season tickets for years, so the Admirals have always been a favorite of 461 00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:39.119 mine since we didn't have an actual NHL Rangers one in overtime? Come on, 462 00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:45.280 man, really, yep? Does that put the Canes down? Like 463 00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:49.960 two? Oh? Yeah? We need yeah? So, yeah, exactly, 464 00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:52.360 we need the can The Penguins need the Canes to win because if they 465 00:41:52.440 --> 00:41:57.960 win and go to the Stanley Cup, then what will happen is is the 466 00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:01.679 Penguins will get their number one draft pick back if they don't. San Jose 467 00:42:01.880 --> 00:42:08.679 gets it down. Now, nobody, I think only one team in the 468 00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:16.079 last what fifteen years came down from three to zero. Yeah, it's the 469 00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:22.920 Penguins. Penguins did a couple of times and Stanley Cup playoffs, right, 470 00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:29.119 and the other time it wasn't it versus a New Jersey Yes, yes, 471 00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:35.800 I know a little hockey. You do you do? Okay, guys, 472 00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:38.320 I think it's time to let everybody know how they can get a hold of 473 00:42:38.360 --> 00:42:44.679 you, Ralph euro Upe.

Oh yeah, thanks everybody. 540 00:48:22.920 --> 00:48:25.800 We will not have a shown next week. Scott and I are headed 541 00:48:25.800 --> 00:48:30.840 to Detroit and we fly back on Thursday, so we will be on a 542 00:48:30.840 --> 00:48:37.840 plane I think about this time. So everybody, good night. I'm sorry, 543 00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:44.719 quick trip. Yep, we're actually we're gonna hopefully see the Miami Marlins 544 00:48:44.719 --> 00:48:47.519 are coming up to Detroit, and so we figured we'd cover them up there 545 00:48:47.559 --> 00:48:52.159 and kind of see another ballpark. When we were up in Toronto, we 546 00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:55.440 actually got to see the Kansas City Royals play the Toronto Blue Jays, So 547 00:48:55.920 --> 00:49:00.840 we kind of like taking in different ballparks and not that we haven't Bendico America, 548 00:49:00.920 --> 00:49:09.199 but it's a chance to see family too, so it is Yes, 549 00:49:09.519 --> 00:49:13.719 okay. I was just making sure it's renovated though, so it's a little 550 00:49:13.760 --> 00:49:19.639 different now. It doesn't have a roof now, yes, okay, because 551 00:49:19.639 --> 00:49:22.519 that's what they did, was they removed the old dome and put in one 552 00:49:22.559 --> 00:49:25.440 of those retractables, wasn't it so they can actually get sunlight during the day 553 00:49:25.440 --> 00:49:32.440 games. And I will say it was the first time I've ever been in 554 00:49:32.480 --> 00:49:39.320 a ballpark where the writers and the press box is actually in the outfield. 555 00:49:40.719 --> 00:49:46.000 Wow, TV and radio are right behind home plate. But because they wanted 556 00:49:46.719 --> 00:49:52.440 more Let's face it, baseball is a business and they're not making money by 557 00:49:52.440 --> 00:49:55.800 the writers, so they put the writers out in the outfield and they put 558 00:49:55.880 --> 00:50:01.280 more boxes in behind home plate so they can get more money. It's money 559 00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:06.119 driven, let's face it. Okay, guys, but this has been fun. 560 00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:12.079 We will see you in two weeks, be back to you. Thanks 561 00:50:12.119 --> 00:50:31.800 you too, good night, everybody.
