8
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.280
Would like somebody to come dressed as
Santa Claus. It'll be our last chance

9
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:33.320
to see you before the holidays.
You know, we look forward to that

10
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:37.960
every year. Just Santa Claus.
We don't want any other custom just Santa.

11
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:41.560
Well, okay, you could be
an elf? Oh what else?

12
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:48.840
Could you be? Snowman? All
right, so let's yeah, you can

13
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:53.079
be what you want. Last week
I'm in Palm Springs and I was the

14
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:57.039
Grand Marshal of the Palm Springs Festival
of Lights Parade, which, by the

15
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:00.079
way, it's pretty big deal out
there. So the night before they have

16
00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:03.719
the tree lighting ceremony, I have
to be at that, and here comes

17
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:07.120
Santa and Missus Claws. They're coming
on this huge sleigh and whatever. Santa

18
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:11.760
looks like. This guy looks like
Santa Claus and his wife looks like Missus

19
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:15.719
Claws. Yeah, they come in
and I'm talking to him, and the

20
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:17.840
guy says, you want my card? I said, well, sure,

21
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:19.719
give me your card. That's what
he does for a loving look. Came

22
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:23.560
up to you and ask you,
yeah you want Yeah. He lives in

23
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:26.239
Redondo Beach, So Santa Claus lives
in Redondo Beach. If anybody has any

24
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:30.799
questions, I know where he's at
and I can call him. But if

25
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:32.799
he shows up at the remote,
we have to pay him. We're not

26
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:37.000
doing that. Oh it was a
gig for him. It was a gig.

27
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:38.640
Yeah, oh yeah, he does
it every year. Guy looked like

28
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.200
Santa Claus. It's pretty interesting.
But then when he gives it your his

29
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.120
card, you kind of think to
yourself, it removed a little of a

30
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:49.480
luster. You know. Yeah,
if he's asking for money, you know,

31
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.599
he's like, you didn't ask him
that you wanted to hire him or

32
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:57.319
anything like that. He said,
pose his business on you. Yeah,

33
00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:00.640
that'd be one thing. If you
you reached down to hill Man you're great.

34
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:04.200
Let me get your card so I
can possibly hire you. That's one

35
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:07.080
thing. But for him to solicit
you that way, it's just yeah,

36
00:02:07.240 --> 00:02:10.560
it's no thanks, all right.
So if you show up, don't give

37
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.520
us your card. If you dressed
a Santa Claus or a snowman or the

38
00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:17.800
Elf or whatever, you can want
to be paid. So we're not doing

39
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:23.080
that. But if you show up, maybe I'll buy you lunch if you

40
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.800
show up. Now, you put
it out there, okay, But here's

41
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:30.599
the thing. So if you come
down and let's say three people are dressed

42
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:35.000
like Santa or Missus Claws or an
elf or a snowman, you guys can

43
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:38.319
share a salad. I'll do that
for you. You can share a salad.

44
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:43.520
That's fair. Wells is buying your
partners all together, not one and

45
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.319
not one on one on one at
a time, just all all three of

46
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:49.840
them will share a salad right with
you? Or no, you're just gonna

47
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:52.719
send them in. No, you're
not showing up either, you're just gonna

48
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:54.520
send them somewhere. Well, no, I'll buy him a salad. There

49
00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:58.599
the salad bar. Yeah, but
no, they don't have a salad bar.

50
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:00.159
I'll just buy a house seal.
I don't know anything crazy. You're

51
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:04.199
not getting a wedge, You're not
getting a caesar. You guys get to

52
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:07.000
split a house salad. Well,
Uncle Fredz been hanging out with Uncle Arty.

53
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:13.759
It sounds like yeah, So anyway, come dressed. We'd love to

66
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.280
you can't win, but this gives

67
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:02.919
better chance to win if you sign
up. Is that code? No?

68
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:05.639
You know what, that's a good
point. That's a very good point.

69
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:10.039
I don't think we've ever explored that. So here's what you do if you

70
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:14.520
sign up, If you sign up
and we confirm you signed up when you

71
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:18.439
get there, we'll give you two
tickets to win, so you have a

72
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:23.600
better chance, right, instead of
one ticket to win. That's trying two.

73
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:26.680
You know how we do it?
Yeah, okay, So if you

74
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:29.920
sign up, we'll give it.
Kevin, Is is that wrong? Kevin?

75
00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:32.959
Did I just do something wrong?
With all kinds? Did you see

76
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:36.319
his eyes? My god? What
happened? What did I do wrong?

77
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:41.439
It's not how that works. You
can't just give people to tickets, right,

78
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:44.759
it's an actual rapper. There's rules
to it. Ry. Well,

79
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.519
I'm trying to give incentive to sign
up. I thought that's what we were

80
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:50.839
supposed to do. No, if
that's what you were supposed to do,

81
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:54.519
we would have told you that's what
you were supposed to do. We to

82
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.199
explicitly say if you sign up,
you get two raffle tickets. Yeah.

83
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:00.680
Maybe I shouldn't have suggested anything or
anything, because you took it and went

84
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.040
to a little bit too far.
Fred. You just went and said let's

85
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:08.279
do this instead of having a discussion
about it. Now, look at your

86
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.839
face. Well, I don't you're
looking bewildered. I am bewildered because I

87
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:15.560
thought we should give them an incentive. No. I was posing the question

88
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:17.879
that that does it really matter if
you sign up? Or is that just

89
00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:21.519
you know, do you really have
a better chance? And you took it

90
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:29.000
to well, yeah, let's give
you two tickets. Okay, Kevin,

91
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:32.199
we're not doing that. No,
we are not. Okay, but there

92
00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:35.040
is an incentive to sign up.
Something good will happen for you. If

93
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:38.879
you sign up. You can still
show up. We'd love to see you.

94
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.519
But if you sign up, good
things will happen. Let's just put

95
00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:45.959
it like that, all right.
I don't think Kevin's laughing. I don't

96
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:49.680
like whiners. I don't like that. I don't like small market professional sports

97
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:54.800
franchises say we can't compete with the
big guys because they make more money.

98
00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:57.759
What do you expect us to do. We're in Kansas City, We're in

99
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:00.879
Cincinnati, we're in Pittsburgh. How
do you expect us to compete with teams

100
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:05.560
in Los Angeles soon, New York
or Chicago. Stop whining? You know

101
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:09.199
what, if you're in it,
you're in it to win it, and

102
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:11.759
if you don't have the money to
win it, then get out. Really

103
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:13.800
that's how I look at it,
and it might seem a little harsh,

104
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.959
but I've always believed that you're doing
an injustice and a disservice to your fans.

105
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:20.199
If you buy something you can't afford
it, Well, hell I can't

106
00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:25.279
afford to build a stadium. Then
to get out, get out. You're

107
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:29.680
not doing anybody any favors. Well, you know what do you expect I

108
00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:32.120
expect you to be able to afford
it? Quite frankly, because you're in.

109
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.399
You're in, and you should be
in to win. Get out.

110
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:38.839
Just get out. And what you're
saying, yeah, get out, sell

111
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:42.720
your team, sell it. I
know everybody can't live in LA and they

112
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:46.680
don't have Balmer and Kranky. I
know that I get it, But you

113
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.879
know what, that's your problem,
that's your problem wherever you live. Well,

114
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:55.240
we just can't compete, well,
then get out, bring somebody in

115
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:59.720
that can't compete. Do your fans
a favor, treat them properly. And

116
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:03.480
same thing applies to college sports.
Well, you know you have the power

117
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:06.839
five schools, the big schools.
You've got a usc You've got a Texas,

118
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:10.319
A and M. You've got a
Clemson, you've got a Georgia,

119
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.839
you got Alabama, you've got Michigan. You've had all these schools with a

120
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:15.639
lot of money. And then you
get the schools that don't have a lot

121
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:18.639
of money. So what happens?
They complained, Well, this isn't fair.

122
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:24.079
It's like the Michigan scandal that got
Jim Harbaugh when they sent a guy

123
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:28.839
around the country to look at the
signals of the opposing team the week before

124
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:31.560
they played them. All right,
here's why that went south. It was

125
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:33.560
months before they played them, by
the way, But go on, all

126
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:38.839
right, here's why that went south. It went south not because you think,

127
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:41.959
oh, that's not fair. It
went south because everybody didn't have the

128
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:46.199
money to do it. That's where
the complaining started. It didn't go south.

129
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:47.519
He missed gags because of it.
Right, Well, they settled in

130
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:50.639
court. I understand, and they
should have never done anything to him.

131
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:55.800
It was ridiculous. It all came
down to they have more money so they

132
00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:58.399
can send this guy all over the
place, and we don't have any money,

133
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:00.319
and it's unfair. I don't think
that's true at all. I think

134
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:01.560
it is true. That has to
do with it. I think it was

135
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:05.160
other big programs that were complaining about
it because they're wine. Ball State didn't

136
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.040
say anything about it. Well,
Ball State, Ball, that's the one

137
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:11.920
you're saying. People, people won't
have money. You complaining that. People

138
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:13.279
in the same conference that complained about
it. You know why, because they

139
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:16.360
can't win. That's not why it
is. They can't afford it. They

140
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.639
can't afford think of it, they
can't AFFI can't afford it. They're whining.

141
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:24.279
Stop whining, and you know it. No, it's not. I

142
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.240
really believe that. Stop whining.
Nobody wants to hear it. If you

143
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:30.399
can figure it out, figure it
out. If you can't, then shut

144
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:35.200
up and stop whining because nobody wants
to hear you whine. So now they're

145
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.879
thinking about nil. And of course
the big schools really have an advantage Chip

146
00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.440
Kelly, Martin Jarmond. They had
a conversation Chip, we better figure this

147
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:45.919
out. We gotta we gotta do
a little better with ni L here.

148
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:48.360
Okay, Well, if you have
the money and you have the donors and

149
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.399
you have the boosters, and you're
good, and if you don't, then

150
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:52.600
you'll whind some more. And we
don't have any money and we don't have

151
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:56.159
the boosters, and nobody's gonna come
to our school, probably right, that's

152
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:00.679
probably fair. So, uh,
this is what they're thinking about. The

153
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:05.639
president of the NCAA is planning to
introduce a proposal to create a new subdivision

154
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:11.919
within Division one that grants certain schools
more autonomy around policymaking and permits them to

155
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:16.799
compensate athletes in a new and profound
way. According to the proposal, schools

156
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.120
that choose to be part of the
new subdivision, they can opt in or

157
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.480
out, are required to meet a
strict minimum standard rooted in athlete investment.

158
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:28.240
Members of the new subdivision will be
permitted to strike name, image and likeness

159
00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:35.399
deals with their own athletes, a
significant move away from the current NIL structure.

160
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.000
So I take that to mean,
for example, a school like USC,

161
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:43.519
they don't have to have a third
party involved. Here, the school

162
00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:48.399
can strike these deals. Entry in
to the subdivision requires a school to invest

163
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:52.639
a minimum thirty thousand dollars per year
per athlete into what is termed an Enhanced

164
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:58.159
Educational Trust Fund, or at least
half of the school'sccountable athletes. There you

165
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:01.840
go, that's confusing right there,
because it doesn't say all of the athletes,

166
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:05.480
you know, you set aside thirty
grand. It's a select number of

167
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.080
athletes. It says at least half. Yeah, they can choose up to

168
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.000
how many beyond that? It is
very nebulous. Yes, So what happens

169
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:18.080
to that, you know, half
that doesn't get chosen to be part of

170
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:22.000
that thirty grand that's set aside,
Well, what happens to them? They

171
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.360
also said that it has to fall
in line with Title nine, so women

172
00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:30.200
athletes have to be roped into this. You can't just say it's all revenue

173
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:33.559
sports, just men's basketball and football
players. You have to incorporate women within

174
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.480
it as well, right, And
that's fair. Absolutely, I get that,

175
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:39.399
Yeah, absolutely you should. So
what happens to some kids, Well,

176
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:43.600
you know what, don't be the
long snapper on the punt team and

177
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:46.080
then maybe you'll get your thirty grand
you know, they're going to make a

178
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:48.559
decision. They're going to pay the
people they want to pay, that they

179
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.200
want to hold on to, and
you know, the people on the periphery.

180
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.080
That's life. You all it's unfair. No, that's life, and

181
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:58.600
life isn't fair. What do you
think of schools just paying up now,

182
00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:05.759
right, instead of going to a
third party. I kind of like the

183
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:09.399
third party, to be honest with
you, because it takes the uh,

184
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:16.759
it takes the school out of it. It takes to any kind of wrongdoings

185
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:22.919
I guess, or sneaky or underhanded
or undermining or illegal activities away from the

186
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:28.159
school, and now the outside collective
can be investigated, can be vetted,

187
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:33.639
and it falls on them to be
under the compliance rules. So I kind

188
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:37.679
of like it having the third party
being able to do it. Yeah.

189
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:41.360
But what this is is the strong
get stronger, right, That's what it

190
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:45.960
is. The rich get richer.
We've got the money, we can do

191
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:50.480
it. We can guarantee that you
know you're going to make this money.

192
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:54.679
Yeah, so we'll take care of
it. The rich get richer. Yeah.

193
00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.279
And what is it? What is
it like we're seeing right now?

194
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.320
I mean, it is free agency
basically what it is for college college kids.

195
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:05.679
Yeah, it's crazy what we're seeing
these kids, these quarterbacks right now

196
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:13.320
that are at university, big time
universities that have started that are now transferring

197
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:20.679
out and going to a different school. It's just it's it's a really weird

198
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.039
time right now that they that part
of it, the transfer portal part of

199
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:31.159
it really needs to be addressed.
For the allow kid to transfer multiple times

200
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.600
in a in a two to three
year span is just absurd. So if

201
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:41.080
it get enters the portal, can
the school that's about to lose them come

202
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:43.720
back to them and say, hey, look, we understand your frustration,

203
00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:46.799
you know, but these guys are
going to hook you up. You've got

204
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:54.120
a carra house collectives go hook you. They're gonna hook you up. Yeah,

205
00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:56.159
that happens. Now. Just because
you enter into the portal doesn't mean

206
00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:58.480
you leave and you're going. So
a lot of guys do into the portal

207
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:01.240
and end up stay and to get
enticed to come back. That has happened

208
00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:03.559
the last couple of years. So
it's basically, you know, pay me

209
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:07.080
more, I'll be gone. It
can be yeah, absolutely, yeah,

210
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:09.759
I mean, if you if this
system is set up that way. Well,

211
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:13.440
you can't blame the kids for taking
advantage of it, right, you

212
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:18.159
can't take the kids say look,
I hey, I was at I was

213
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:22.679
at a basketball game the other night, and I saw somebody from from Texas

214
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:28.480
who said that there might be something
there for me, you know, in

215
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:35.679
terms of dollars and cents. I
got to entertain that, and so I'm

216
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.480
going to Texas. They're gonna give
me double with my current school is willing

217
00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:43.960
to get me. Yeah. I'm
just wondering how much more money would you

218
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.639
have made now if you were playing
than you did make when you played at

219
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:54.240
USC easy easy leading the witness,
Yes, very much so, Harvey.

220
00:13:54.440 --> 00:13:58.159
I'm gonna call Harvey Specter from students
to come get you, right. I'm

221
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:03.519
just thinking, just you know,
hit me. One other thing too,

222
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:07.120
to point out about this proposal from
Charlie Baker, the president of the NCAA.

223
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:11.159
These are schools that enter into this
agreement or this subdivision would also be

224
00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:16.720
able to hire almost an unlimited amount
of coaches and have more scholarships. More

225
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:20.039
on the rich getting richer, yep. Rich. As long as they're willing

226
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:22.159
to pay for it, they can
do it. It's on them basically yes,

227
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.360
and the schools have the money to
pay. Yeah, all right,

228
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:33.399
spirituality that's coming up. Oh yeah, come on a lot of missiletope,

229
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.840
snowy nights, baby everywhere we go. Let's go, Rodney, p Fred

230
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:48.279
Rogan on a hop day. Yes, how beautiful it is outside right now?

231
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:54.000
Goodness, Rodney. The twenty twenty
three MLS Cup presented by Outing is

232
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.399
this Saturday, December ninth, the
Columbus Crew going head to head against your

233
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:03.240
defending ML's Cup champs LAFC for the
ultimate prize. To tune into the action

234
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.399
live on TV, watch free on
Apple TV with MLS Season Pass. It

235
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:13.919
starts at one pm Saturday. All
right, and that's big. While going

236
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:16.480
back to back to the title game, mm hmm, tell you they've done

237
00:15:16.480 --> 00:15:22.200
it right. LAFC has done it
right from the very beginning. It was

238
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:26.000
a slow growth and slow grind upwards
and they made it to the mountaintop.

239
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:30.679
Man. They've just been going into
right direction since they've they've come onto the

240
00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:33.919
scene and like you said, did
everything right on the field and off the

241
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.559
pitch. Yeah, they really knew
how to build a franchise. Also,

242
00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:41.879
quick shout out to the Kings last
night They're down three nothing in Columbus,

243
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.279
right, they were unbeaten on the
road. They come back to score three

244
00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:48.639
goals in the third period to tie
the game, and then Drew Dowdy scored

245
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.679
in overtime and the Kings won four
to three, undefeated, eleven to zero

246
00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:58.799
on the road. That ties an
NHL record. They're good. They're really

247
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:03.320
really good this year. I mean, falling behind three nothing, coming back

248
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:07.559
and hockey fan down three nothing,
that's like being down thirty one and nothing

249
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.240
in football. I was thinking the
same thing last night when I was watching.

250
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:12.120
Yeah, I mean, you're down
three to nothing in the third period.

251
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:17.279
You might be wondering what time does
the plane leave? Exactly? Chuck

252
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:19.720
this one up. Yeah, but
they came back and won. That Old

253
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:22.519
man cam talb be bawling out there, Frett, you think about that.

254
00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:27.480
I can't believe that. I cannot
believe it. Off Alaska, he's thirty

255
00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:32.840
six Ridney. Yeah, and but
one of the best goaltenders in the entire

256
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:36.080
in the Western Conference, maybe the
entire NHL this year so far. Frett,

257
00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:37.320
Am I overstepping by saying that?
I don't think so? And you

258
00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:41.440
know what's interesting about that? So
the way Vegas won it. They did

259
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:45.519
not have a lot of money invested
in their goalies last year, right Aiden

260
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.080
Hill, a guy they called up. All of a sudden, he turns

261
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:49.799
out to be a stud and they
don't have to pay him a lot of

262
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:55.399
money. So when the Kings looked
at the method or the methodology of how

263
00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:59.080
things are being built, they said, all right, our investment will go

264
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:02.720
for offense. We are going to
score a ton of goals, and we

265
00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:08.079
need guys that can play goal.
Cam Talbot was signed late, very late.

266
00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:11.519
He was just floating around, needed
a job and they had Phoenix Copley

267
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:15.440
who was on the show with this
last year Rodney, but they needed a

268
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.039
guy who they thought would be a
bona fide number one. Talbot has had

269
00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:22.119
success in the NHL, but he's
never been a world beater, but he's

270
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:26.039
been fundamentally sound. They bring him
in here and all of a sudden he

271
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:33.160
catches fire. So the feeling works
that maybe we don't need to invest five

272
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.680
or six million dollars a year in
a goalie, because you know, goalies,

273
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:41.000
I've always maintained this, or like
relief pitchers, they absolutely are hot

274
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:45.720
and cold. They're hot and then
they get cold, and if you want

275
00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:48.799
to invent and I mean, obviously
in the history of the league there have

276
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:52.839
been very good goalies, but overall, I mean, you know, one

277
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.359
day, whatever this guy was doing
is gone, And why wouldn't it be.

278
00:17:56.519 --> 00:18:00.200
You're standing there and somebody's shooting something
to atch it at a hundred minds

279
00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:03.039
an hour, you can't even see
it half the time, and your only

280
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:06.680
goal is to stand there and get
hit with it. Just hit me and

281
00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:08.759
then it doesn't go in, So
that messes with your mind a little bit.

282
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:11.759
How much is that puck hurt when
to hit you at one hundred miles

283
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:17.160
an hour? Yeah, ask guys
with the padd I know those guys back

284
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:19.000
in the day with no teeth,
no mouth guard, no shield or anything.

285
00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:23.839
But vidio goalie. Does the padding
do anything? Oh yeah, I'm

286
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:27.799
sure it helps, but I'd be
taking them off the chest, That's what

287
00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:32.000
I'd be doing. Well, you
want to get them with that enough padding?

288
00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:33.799
You want to get him with a
blocker, with your big blocker pad

289
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:37.440
and then I want to, Yeah, you want to, but you got

290
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:41.559
to you gotta spread out. Sometimes
you get it with the chess. I

291
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:45.559
look at it like almost like a
playing a hot corner in baseball third base,

292
00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:48.640
just knock it down. Oh if
you hit it, If you knock

293
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:51.440
it down, you got time to
get him out at first. You know,

294
00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:55.440
I played that in college, and
we play infield in you know,

295
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:56.559
you runner a second, third,
you gotta go, you gotta come up

296
00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:03.480
on the grass. And playing with
those aluminum bats in college. I mean

297
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:07.559
we're talking guys that you know,
two years they're in they're in Made League

298
00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:10.559
Baseball, they're in the big leagues. That's how the talented the pack was

299
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:14.920
when I played, mean talking about
guys like Barry Bonds and you know,

300
00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:21.680
uh, Mike mcina and and the
big unit Mark McGuire, guys coming up.

301
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:23.000
You know, it took him.
You know, they played college,

302
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:26.039
so it was very competitive. It
took them one two years and then they

303
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:29.759
were in the big leagues. Those
guys coming up to bat, Mark McGuire

304
00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:33.680
coming up the bat, and you
got to play on the grass. You

305
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:34.960
got to play in there on the
grass, and you got to aluminum bat.

306
00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:42.400
Oh man, thinking that bad boy, you taking it off the tib

307
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:45.640
almost had to wear a test protector
sometimes giving out The way our pitching was

308
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:51.200
when I was there, you know
what. They had to bandose aluminum bats

309
00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:56.000
and ban them in college for sure, for sure. But the problem is

310
00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:57.559
the wooden bats will cost them too
much, right, that's true, to

311
00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:00.680
break them and then have to have
more bad or run through him. Yep,

312
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.400
Yeah, the cost is not gonna
be good for it's not enough money

313
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:08.200
generated from baseball in college that you
can't afford it. Right, all right,

314
00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:11.920
let's bring on Vic. Let's have
some spirituality. So here he comes

315
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:15.240

ucopia. Ronnie Fossio, time has
come today with King Flavor. Ye young

323
00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:18.720
hearts can go their way and fellows, let's face it, taking over Nashville

324
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:23.839
and the baseball Winter Meetings was Dave
Roberts. And by the way, congratulations

325
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:30.440
to David Vase on the Sensational Show
from Brad Paisley's Farm last night with Dave

326
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:37.880
Roberts and Art Chris Archer, the
newest member of the Dodger Front Office Sensational

327
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:45.039
Show. You know what Vassie told
us, We asked him how the farm

328
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:48.000
was. He goes, what happens
there is nobody's business. I can't talk

329
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:56.200
about it one hundred acres outside of
Nashville. But fellas Dave Roberts, honesty

330
00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:04.279
is exactly what Otani seeks. Mhm
okay. A lot of people freaked out

331
00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:11.720
on you know, Dave stating,
you know the obvious, But he is

332
00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:19.039
a sensey with wavos. That's what
Ol'tiny Sohn wants. Viva, Dave Roberts,

333
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:22.039
fearless. How do you know that, vic, How do you know

334
00:22:22.119 --> 00:22:25.799
he's a sense with waves? How
do you know that's what he wants.

335
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:29.799
He doesn't say anything because based on
the reporting, that's exactly what he didn't

336
00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:33.680
want, was someone talking on the
record about a meeting. Oltonis I never

337
00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:40.400
said anything about an embargo. That's
the his agency talking. If indeed the

338
00:22:40.519 --> 00:22:47.680
agency did ever lay down this audio
embargo. That's all hearsay. Nothing is

339
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:56.079
concrete that there was this insane embargo. C AA never said in black and

340
00:22:56.160 --> 00:23:03.839
white. There will be consequence if
someone talked talks about the OLTONI Son negotiations.

341
00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:07.839
If there's a leak, there will
be penalties. I don't know where

342
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.720
that came from. Came from Jeff
Passon, who allied to think I trust

343
00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:15.880
is sourcing on stuff, but he
could be wrong. I guess all I

344
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:22.000
know is Dave Roberts was right in
speaking the truth. Yes, we spoke

345
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:26.319
to him. Yeah, the two
or three hour meeting. It was beautiful

346
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:33.559
spending time with him. That's what
old Son wants, the truth, doesn't

347
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:37.880
want smoke screens. I mean,
listen, FREDI pointed out earlier. He's

348
00:23:37.920 --> 00:23:44.519
gonna get the Denaro. The money's
there no matter who pays him. But

349
00:23:44.680 --> 00:23:53.960
it's the interactions with the team I
believe is a very very important factor and

350
00:23:55.079 --> 00:23:56.640
still in it. Of course,
Dodgers have the inside track, and I

351
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:00.839
think Dave sealed it. I think
Dave Roberts sealed it. He he is

352
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:10.039
the conquering hero of Nashville, Tennessee. Wow, conckering hero absolutely all the

353
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:17.039
qualities, the warrior qualities that Otani
Son wants Dave Roberts has. What are

354
00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:22.559
you talking about? Well, what
is it you're talking about? What are

355
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:26.880
you saying? Dave Roberts from speaking
the truth? You know, I know

356
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:33.759
you're making this up. You don't
know this for I know the mindset a

357
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:37.440
little bit of of Otani. I
mean, it's it's been a mystery.

358
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:45.839
But you know I constantly call my
sources in Japan. Tell us one of

359
00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:52.839
your sources. I can't reveal my
sources, Fred. Bottom line is Otani

360
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:56.599
Son big. What's the area code
to Japan? If I want to call

361
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:02.119
Japan? What do I die?
Well, he was start with the operator

362
00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:06.640
No, Vick you no, you
would not make you don't call anyone in

363
00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:08.279
Japan. It's the country code.
Is that what you want to know?

364
00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:11.519
That's what I want to know.
What's a country code of Japan? Well

365
00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:19.319
we text wet. The bottom line
is Fred, Dave Roberts is a hero

366
00:25:19.680 --> 00:25:26.000
and Dave Roberts should be lauded for
his honesty. And I think that's it's

367
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:30.720
my opinion. It's only my opinion. It struck a chord with a in

368
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:37.039
a positive way. And you know
this could determine how you know this.

369
00:25:37.200 --> 00:25:40.640
Vic, that's the that's what's where
we're trying to You have a bit of

370
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:47.079
a disconnect here. It's a feel
that you know it. It's a gut

371
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:51.519
instinct of Otoni. Absolutely, he
had an excellent meeting with the Dodgers.

372
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:55.599
This is not a secret. I
mean he had meetings with Toronto. Oh

373
00:25:55.799 --> 00:26:02.359
no, Viva, Dave Roberts.
I think Ronni had a feeling of an

374
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:06.279
itch on his finger, right,
That's what I was. Sorry, Vick.

375
00:26:06.799 --> 00:26:11.720
All right, Mick will continue taking
his insight on. Vick was sending

376
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:18.680
a mind of Otani and spirituality.
Yes, it is the marshmallow world.

377
00:26:19.039 --> 00:26:25.920
Come on, ah, let's go
on a hop. Dave Rodney, p

378
00:26:26.079 --> 00:26:30.400
Fred Rogan beautiful. Sorry about that, Vic, you know what happened.

379
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:34.240
But he had an itchy trigger finger. Okay, Vic, did you wrap

380
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:41.640
up your understanding of Otani's mind.
Dave Roberts with the giant Cojones, the

381
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:48.839
sense and whatever else you said.
I'm impressed that Dave Roberts was honest and

382
00:26:48.039 --> 00:27:00.599
candid, and I truly believe that
Otani Sohn appreciates that Dave was open and

383
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:07.559
as Dave said, well, Dave
said, he didn't say much. Well,

384
00:27:07.640 --> 00:27:11.799
Dave said he was he felt like
he was smiling inside. That was

385
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:21.240
Dave's gut instinct. No one knows
what that means, Vic smiling it was.

386
00:27:21.279 --> 00:27:22.680
There were some great vibes in that
two to three hour meeting, Vick.

387
00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:26.599
What am I doing inside right now? I think his exact quote,

388
00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:30.359
Vic was he had a nice poker
face. Now how you interpreted that to

389
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:34.759
be like he was smiling inside?
I don't know. Yeah, that's yeah,

390
00:27:34.839 --> 00:27:37.000
Vic. How does my inside feel
right now? I'll tell you,

391
00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:41.319
But how does my inside feel?
Since you can figure that out, how

392
00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:42.880
do you think I feeling pretty?
I think you're feeling good. You're looking

393
00:27:42.920 --> 00:27:48.200
forward to Hollywood Parkersino this Monday,
So that's not right, Vic. I

394
00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:52.559
feel bloated. I'm bloated, vict
inside right now? What did you eat?

395
00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:56.799
I don't want to go into it, but I'm never eating there again?

396
00:27:57.240 --> 00:28:00.519
Oh money? Whoa Ron? Fred? You're the one that said you

397
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:07.119
were bloated? Wow? What are
we doing? Fred's starting early on the

398
00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:17.640
matzas. Make you ever play hide
the Matza? No? Okay, I

399
00:28:17.839 --> 00:28:22.319
ate a lot of Matza Bride back
in the day, But no, but

400
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:26.079
not a lot of tastes to the
Matza vic. You can do a lot

401
00:28:26.119 --> 00:28:36.559
of stuff with Matsa. Yeah.
But again, I just want to I

402
00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:38.839
want to pivot back to, you
know, to to Dave robertson Otoni some

403
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:44.000
because it's really has been so blown
up out of proportion. It's almost it's

404
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:49.119
it's almost ludicrous at this point.
But I feel so good about what the

405
00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:56.759
Dodgers did in Nashville. They got
a lot lot of clarity, especially on

406
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:00.400
the Otani front. Now the Yamamoto
fronts that is that is that is nebulous.

407
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:04.599
Uh. I know mets New York, mets on A Steve Cone flew

408
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:12.119
to Japan about a week ago to
Schmoozemamoto son. I think he's a little

409
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:18.720
late to the party for him.
I think CON's a little late victory,

410
00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:23.440
a little you never know. At
this point, it's it's everything is is

411
00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:29.960
a flip of a coin. But
the Yamamoto stock obviously is rising up to

412
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:36.000
a close to three hundred million dollars. Dodgers still in the Almamoto sweepstakes,

413
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:40.839
has no doubt about that. You
like, you guys like to trade Verdugo

414
00:29:41.480 --> 00:29:45.440
from the Red Sox of the Yankees
to form a Dodger Sure, why not?

415
00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:52.319
Yeah, as apparently he and Korra
had some some issues during the season,

416
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:59.759
so it was, uh, it
was a tough situation for Verdugo in

417
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:07.039
so the Yankees basically cleaned up the
mess of Dugo and Boston. So the

418
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:15.319
Yankees actually did the Red Sox are
favorite taking for do go. You guys

419
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:21.480
watch Dancing with the Stars. Who's
on it? It's over? Okay?

420
00:30:22.839 --> 00:30:29.319
Good. Mirrorball Trophy went to seventeen
year old out of La Sochi Gomez and

421
00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:37.559
val So Yeah. So Chi Gomez
was tremendous and Valet Jibikowski. Yes,

422
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:41.640
in the thirty second season. What
forgive me? Maybe I'm sound older out

423
00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:44.839
of touch here, but what qualified
Soci Gomez to be a star? What

424
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.480
is her background? Their question?
She better not be Selena Gomez's cousin or

425
00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:52.559
something either, because that's usually what
these things turned into. Who is she?

426
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:57.480
She's only seventeen, she's the Marvel
of the Marvel movie. But a

427
00:30:57.559 --> 00:31:04.279
lot of these media people that want
Tom to Marvel this recent Marvel movie and

428
00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:11.000
the Marvel franchise. Yeah, what
what character was she? Was she in

429
00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:15.680
the Miss Marvel movie? I'm not
sure. I just I've become a big

430
00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:19.039
fan of her, of her acknowledge
they were in the Marvel movie, based

431
00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:25.119
on the way it was performed,
Did anybody acknowledge it? Not really?

432
00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:26.799
I mean she just said, you
know, when you go on the dance

433
00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:30.599
floor, you're basically naked. She
was naked. She wasn't. Are you

434
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:37.200
naked to the process? Right?
It's it's tough, you mean naked to

435
00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:42.400
the PROCESSI of the of the ballroom
dancing. Some some come on there or

436
00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:47.359
like they've been skilled in dancing.
Some of them will have a little cheater

437
00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:51.079
background. They got the insight.
My man, my man, Mario Lopez.

438
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:53.000
You know he's a dancer by trade. He studied dance. Yeah,

439
00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:56.920
he can dance a little bit.
He got a little salt because he lost

440
00:31:56.920 --> 00:32:00.759
to MTT Smith that year. Me
off too, Yeah, and it was

441
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:05.359
a sentimental favorite. But Mario had
dance backgrounds. That's why he was a

442
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:07.799
little pista. It's like, I
can do all these dances better than anybody.

443
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:12.720
No, the NFL players have great
success on Dancing with the Stars.

444
00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:21.319
Yeah, fand favorites, which leads
us to what Vic not yet? Not

445
00:32:21.480 --> 00:32:25.480
yet? I want to get that
I want to get that with Brenda Lee

446
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:34.079
Ronnie hit me. Okay, Yes, oldest ever to have a number one

447
00:32:34.240 --> 00:32:40.359
song rocking around the Christmas is now
number one, sixty five years after its

448
00:32:40.400 --> 00:32:52.359
original release. So congratulations Brenda Lee, y'all pretty amazing, No, absolutely

449
00:32:52.400 --> 00:33:00.599
amazing, victim. She released the
song when she was thirteen years old and

450
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:06.279
now it's back number one on the
Babe. She's singing this now as she

451
00:33:06.400 --> 00:33:12.000
was thirteen when she sang this sixty
five years later, she's singing it right

452
00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:15.519
now. Or they was re released. This is Brenda Lee. Yeah,

453
00:33:15.559 --> 00:33:19.880
she's currently seventy eight when she was
thirteen now singing this song. This is

454
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:23.279
a thirteen year old singing, Is
that what you're saying? Or she didn't

455
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:29.160
now this could be the re release
do we even know? No, it

456
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:34.160
rose to number one. Well,
she's currently seventy eight years old, so

457
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:37.400
based on my terrible years ago,
based on my terrible math was sixty five.

458
00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:40.319
That would put her at thirteen.
Although this is many times I've heard

459
00:33:40.359 --> 00:33:43.400
this song, I never would have
guessed that this was a thirteen year old

460
00:33:43.400 --> 00:33:45.400
singing. To be honest and vic, this is not a re release.

461
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:50.079
This is the original recording. Here
there you go, Ronnie, good research.

462
00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:53.039
Well, how is it number one? It's number one on the on

463
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:57.839
the Billboard charts now right now,
Fred. In the moment, Fred,

464
00:33:57.960 --> 00:34:01.200
this is number one, and he's
saying throughout the sixty five years since it's

465
00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:05.400
been released, that has never been
number one. I think it has something

466
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:12.159
to do with a viral clip where
she was I guess, part of a

467
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:17.119
Southwest flights that got delayed and she
apparently jumped on the intercom and started entertaining

468
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:22.840
everybody while the flight was delayed,
singing her Christmas carols. So maybe this

469
00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:28.199
has something to do with the song
reaching number one. Who knows Brenda Lee?

470
00:34:28.400 --> 00:34:32.719
Nice good research, Ronnie, which
of course leads us all back to

471
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:37.559
the source. And Fred, I
know you're a little bit bloated, but

472
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:43.360
I think this will help relieve some
of that inner stress. It's from the

473
00:34:43.440 --> 00:34:47.480
Haiku is going to release my inner
stress? Absolutely. Maybe pepto bismol will

474
00:34:47.519 --> 00:34:51.199
do a better job of that,
but let's find out that couldn't hurt.

475
00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:58.559
It's from bas show, That's what
I'm talking about. Boss on a hump

476
00:34:58.639 --> 00:35:07.320
